Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Let's go see genius, go big boy, let's go.

Speaker 3 (00:07):
Let's see you doing. How was your day? How was
your Sunday?

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Good? My wife was up here for the weekend. That
was good. She just went back to Connecticut kind of
dropped the bomb show on me.

Speaker 3 (00:18):
So I was little uh oh yeah, she actually got
to do some more manual labor.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
No, She's like, so what did what did you plan
for thirty year anniversary?

Speaker 3 (00:30):
I'm like, damn, thirty year significant? What thirty year though?
It was pretty significant?

Speaker 4 (00:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Yeah, I kind of bought myself some time, going, oh,
come on, we're moving. Let's let's do something after football season.
I'm gonna have to take her on a trip or
something like that. Let's do something after football season. By
what do you have going on during football season?

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Well?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Yeah, what am I gonna do? I'm not gonna what
am I gonna buy her? Like diamonds or something? Come on?

Speaker 3 (00:57):
I mean as a trophy has Yeah, yeah, I feel
like I would be doing everything I possibly could to
stay in that trophy husband role. To be honest, you
tend to have a much differing, much different view on that.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Today. I'll take her on a trip. I want to look.
We went to Costa Rico, we went to the Dominican Republic.
But you know, I'd like to go to some place swanky,
one of those sniky hotels. But I don't want to
spend a lot of money, you know what I mean?
I just don't want to do that.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
Well, that's probably smart.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
But any ideas where I should go? I mean, it
is our thirtieth ounniverse.

Speaker 3 (01:32):
Well didn't you guys just get back from a cruise. No,
I'd never been. We don't do no, no, no, the
all inclusive thing.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
You just went, yeah, yeah, we did the all inclusive thing. Yeah,
it's the Dominican Republic. I'm never wrote Dominican Republic. I'm sorry,
I'm never doing that again. All right, well no, no
more all inclusive. That's that's out the window. Forget it.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
I would just I mean, call me crazy, but again,
you being a trophy husband, most people want to stay
in that role. So I would just come up with
the biggest, baddest possible thing you could do.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
To stay Where go to?

Speaker 5 (02:02):
You?

Speaker 2 (02:02):
I can't, I don't have time to go to Europe.
What does just fly over to Europe?

Speaker 6 (02:06):
Well, here's wrong because you can go to London and
then they.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
What am I going to see it London? What am
I going to let her finish?

Speaker 6 (02:15):
It's really nice spots in London, and then you can
take a two hour train ride and it's like under
the water, and then you can go to Paris. There
you go, and then you can also do like a
forty five minute flight to Portugal or to Spain and
it's like literally sixty like pounds.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Do I have six months off? I'm just curious. I
don't know. I had a week.

Speaker 7 (02:35):
You can do this triple and like, oh, oh my goodness, man,
oh my goodness, I love just just fly over here
and do this and do I'm thinking to go to
the Carolinas and you're like, just fly here and take it.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Try.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
You know, Carolinas are very cool. Yeah, that'd be cool.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
I'd like to stay at a rich Carlton, but I
can't afford it.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Well, good luck. I mean the key is to have
something going once your drop dead day.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
Would you I'm thinking about going to Goulsby, Oklahoma again.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
If he's saying right, it might help you. Do you
have a casino here?

Speaker 8 (03:08):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Look at that?

Speaker 3 (03:10):
We got a massive casino. We all one of the
biggest casinos maybe in the South.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
Yeah, I mean, if you can get here to Goldsby
and get it all figured out, you would understand the
brilliance of River Wind right off of Highway nine and
nine thirty five. But Alreadie, we're not here to talk
about that.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
How much?

Speaker 3 (03:25):
How much? How much time do you have? When's your anniversary? Well,
the September knife But you got married during football season.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah, that was a mistake. That was a mistake. We
should have got married a little bit early. I told
you the honeymoon destiny.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
This whole thing about you running your household is slowly
but surely starting to fall apart. When Arnie, I thought
you were watching like a dolphin's loss on your phone
while you're getting married. Oh he couldn't watch it on
his phone back then.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
Yeah, then I think we And my biggest mistake was
when she said, well, where do you want to go
on our honeymoon? I'm like, wherever you want to go.
It doesn't really make a difference to me. And I
told you she picked like the possibly worst place we
can go. Nothing against Calgary and baff and Lake Louise.
But seriously, okay, we looked at the we looked at

(04:14):
the glacier. I drank some water. Now what am I
gonna do for ten other days? You're gonna make me
look at some water and and and glaciers and drink water.
I mean, come on, I could do that at like
fifteen minutes. I'm not gonna do ten days of that stuff.
There's nothing that there's no skiing because those in this
September ninth, this just sucks, which is what the Hawaii.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
This doesn't sound like this is a conversation that you
really want a crowdsource because every single idea we bring up,
you grench and moan about you.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
Guys don't have good ideas. You guys don't know how
to have fun. I'm asking the fun crowd is what
I'm asking.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
What is your idea of fun? David Busters? Yeah, It's
what I'm getting at it right now? What is your
idea of a good time?

Speaker 2 (04:58):
You know, just like going to uh nice swanky hotel
and you know, just just having fun there, you know,
not just you know, wh're not come to California, coming
to California. I lived there, Jeep single go to California.
Why do I ask you guys for ideas?

Speaker 3 (05:16):
I don't know?

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Cool, that's you.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
You're You're the one. Why do you ask us for ideas?
When you dump all over him, it's like my wife.
He says, Hey, what do you guys want for dinner?
And I proceed to give five ideas and every single well,
we're not going to do that. We're not going there.
So we're doing you're the same thing. You're like, you're
acting like my wife right now, Arnie, every idea we
give you you complain about.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
I'm the friend. Then when somebody says I have a
great business idea, and I really go, oh, that's never
gonna work. Never, never gonna I remember one of our
real quicks, one of our sales guys when I was
working in LA told me he had an idea for
a TV show, and I go, dude, do not quit
your job. You make good money. That is the dumbest
idea I think I ever heard of, my wife. You

(05:56):
are not a TV producer. He started to show it. It
was called the Biggest Loser you know the way, Oh
you made a boatload of money on that one.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
You are Yeah, clearly Now they're Buch trouble too, So
I mean, now they're in a bunch of trouble. But
at the very least they did get the Netflix documentary
out of it. So there is that the other side
of Biggest Loser. But well, good luck, Arnie. I hope
you can come up with something.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
I can take ideas, So let the listeners tweet me
and give me an idea and where to go besides
Cools the Oklahoma that's right.

Speaker 8 (06:29):
Four.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
I'm sorry to give my text line hit us up. Well,
we have a text line at our local radio station,
and I'm not used to not, you know, using it
during your program. So I guess you could text it
at four five six, five one three four three nine.
But for tonight's purposes, there's at Stinking Genius one. I'm
at Plank Show. Everybody go follow us at Fox Sports Radio.
So are you good to dive into a little pre season?

Speaker 1 (06:52):
Then?

Speaker 3 (06:52):
Are you good?

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Now?

Speaker 3 (06:53):
Anything else you need to get out for the white Strip?

Speaker 2 (06:56):
We got a lot of topics. I added one more
Roman Numeral. I sent you the story about them talking
about MLB realignment. I wanted to get into that. I
had some questions about that that maybe you could answer that,
but yeah, we got a lot of football to get
into also, so.

Speaker 3 (07:10):
Okay, well, I'll say this much. I feel like we
are getting overly sensitive on every little thing that happens
with baseball. I don't know if you agree or disagree
with it, but I mean, even this kind of the
idea that expansion might might lead to, like moving people around,
We've already moved teams around. I mean, right, It's just

(07:30):
I don't know why. It just doesn't resonate with me
too deeply here. I can imagine you're fired up about it, though, No,
I well I am No.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
I'm not fired up. I love it. I'm just kind
of curious when the commissioner said that, you know that
they're going to do it to save travel, save the
wear and tear on the players' bodies. Does that mean
like the Mets and the Yankees are going to be
in the same division, like the Angels and the Dodgers,
the Clubs and the White Sox.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Maybe I'm okay with that, by the way, like that,
I can see a division of Meds, Yankees, Red Sox, Phillies, Pirates.
I mean, you want to be geographically close? Can I
get you any close to the die, Chris, I don't
know if I could do that. I mean, but then
you're gonna have to decide do you put him in

(08:15):
the National League or do you put him in the
America League. I don't know what you do there.

Speaker 3 (08:18):
Well, I mean, what's really the big deal anymore about
National League or American I guess it doesn't matter. I mean,
we have so many interleague games. I mean the other day,
not to start with baseball, but since you brought this up,
do you know what year inner league play started in
Major League Baseball?

Speaker 2 (08:37):
What? Fifteen years ago?

Speaker 3 (08:39):
See, that's exactly what I was would be nineteen ninety seven.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
Oh my goodness, man, geez, I didn't think it was
that long ago.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
So we have been playing interleague games for the better
part of like twenty years now. So to me, I'm
not really I don't know. I'm not gonna really be
somebody that gets too upset if they decide to shift
things around. But you know what, bottom line, more than
anything else, isn't it okay to see them thinking about

(09:08):
ways to continue to grow the game.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
I mean, look, well, look at what's going on in
the A's are going to Vegas so you could have
the Dodgers Angels A's I guess San Diego and San
Francisco maybe. Yeah, that'd be a killer division with that
hot water.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
Be fun. But again, you gotta remember this was just
workshopped off him. What being on the broadcast tonight.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
Oh yeah, yeah, just but he sounded like that was
a strong possibility. I mean, it was more than just
a idle rumor or anything like that. He you know,
it made it seem like they've got to do something
to save the travel in the wear and tear on
one hundred and sixty two games seasonally. I have to
agree with that, to be honest.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
Well, okay, it's only forty four seconds long. Let me
play it for you. What Artie's talking about is from
when Rob hold On, Rob hold On, Rob Rob Manfred
was on during the Mets broadcast tonight and they started
talking about potential realignment.

Speaker 8 (10:08):
In my mind, I think if we expand, it provides
us with an opportunity to geographically realign. I think we
could save a lot of wear and tear on our
players in terms of travel, and I think our postseason
format would be even more appealing for you know, entities
like ESPN, because you'd be playing up out.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
Of the east, out of the west.

Speaker 8 (10:30):
And that ten o'clock time slot where we you know,
sometimes get Boston Anaheim would be two West Coast teams,
and that ten o'clock slot that's a problem for us
sometimes becomes a real opportunity for our West Coast Augus.

Speaker 3 (10:43):
Interesting.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
That's that's why I said, when he's talking about time
that is going to be two West Coast teams, it
was like, Okay, sure, does that mean Dodgers Angels? I mean,
we're forgetting about who's the Cubs in the White Sox
in the same division. You know, I don't know he
mentioned the Yankees. I think there's only gonna be what

(11:04):
four or five of those combinations, But I think it
take overall redo the whole thing. You know, if anybody
needs it's the NFL. But it's people like Jerry Jones
that really want to redo the divisions. He loves the
rivalries that he has going on in his division, even
though we've changed it once there too.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
I think the NBA is up there too. I think
I think they all need to for every single little
bit of tradition that we could not give two bleeps
about anymore in sports, right, Yeah, nobody cares about rivalries
and college football anymore. We tore those apart for well,
outside of Texas. Texas gained some rivals back with the
conference realignment was pretty unique with him getting Arkansas and

(11:44):
him back on their schedule. But for the most part,
it's imploded rivalries. It's changed everything. We've completely changed baseball
in a lot of ways with pitchclock and the action clock.
Football and the kickoffs are unrecognizable. But let's not mess
with the visions, aren't he I mean, you get people
gonna throw a fit over this over the next people
that care about baseball, I think are gonna throw a
fit over I.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
Think people that care about baseball. You're what you're doing
is when you put like the Dodgers and Angels together,
you're gonna create more ticket sales, more regional talk, more
excitement in that part of the market, which is what
all six divisions will do. That's the way I would go.

Speaker 3 (12:22):
Maybe you're right, but we'll talk about it more later on. Yes,
Paul brings up a good point. What is this nineteen
ninety seven we're leading off with baseball? Actually it's even
late because we we we let off with Arnty acting
like that he hasn't done anything for his anniversary yet,
which is in like two weeks.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
So yeah, I haven't done anything, and nobody gives. Somebody
said that you go to the Biltmore in Asheville, North Carolina. Funny,
there you thought about that. I'm not kiddout from Sooner
or Lisa. I actually did think about that. That might
not be a bad place to go.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
Well, I mean, I will say, I'm glad that we
could use this show to help you plan your anniversary,
You ungrateful jerk who barely remembers your thirty thirty year anniversary.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
With your wife, Arnie. I heard it, says. Daryl says
Arnie has to be the worst husband in the world,
and he out kicked his coverage by fifteen football fields.
Guy complains about everything and Beth seems amazing and in
related news complaint compare his wife to Artie. Is it
gonna go over very well? She sh So there you

(13:24):
go there.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
Man, you're acting like here, I mean, that's just kind
of what I'm dealing with.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
Right.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
Next thing, you know, pull me aside and tell me
about some conspiracy theory that you heard from Alex Jones.
But in all seriousness, Arnie, you've got to be better.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Than this man.

Speaker 3 (13:35):
Your a trophy husband. You're gonna lose. I mean I
would be vacuuming floors. I'd have that house sold. I'd
have some trip where did sooner Lis to send you
a bit more?

Speaker 2 (13:45):
But what Ashville? Yeah, the builtmore Nashra. That's a little
pricey though that it's a lot more than I wanted
to spend.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
So we have just gone final in Chicago. The Bears
beat up on the Bills twenty a twenty one point
second quarter final score thirty eight to zero.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:02):
I think the story bears in that one. Yeah, the
story of the game is this about your picks? Is
that we're not gonna go We can't talk about the game.
We got to talk about it.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Just tell you you don't have to talk about the game.
Forget about that. We go straight to the Oh, we
can go straight to the playoffs right now. It's we
don't have to go through the regular season. The Bears
that go to the playoffs. Did you not read Twitter tonight?
Oh my goodness, the Bear fans have lost their marbles

(14:32):
over this game. You would have thought that the Bears
are now eight to oh and gonna get the bye
week for week nine or something like that. It's insane.
It really is crazy.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
I thought Caleb Williams looked pretty good, and I mean,
you're gonna say, and if you're gonna lose your minds
over a Shador Sanders outing last week like you and
everyone else did, then why aren't people allowed to lose
their mind over what the Bears did?

Speaker 2 (14:58):
I was about to say it. You know, when you
get to Eddie, team's gonna change your mind as we
get ready for you know, even preseason week three, at
the start of the regular season, the Chicago Bears, They've
changed my mind. I know people have been on the
back way bearwagon. I know that Colin even tweeted something
out during the game and he goes, was that a
boat the lightning or Caleb Williams arm Oh my goodness.

(15:21):
I'm like, oh, stop it, stop it. Everybody pumped the brakes.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
But when do you decide I'm just curious you're lying,
because I'd like to learn more about it. Where do
you decide in your knee jerk reaction mind, where it's
okay to say someone is gonna win the Super Bowl
or be a great team, and when is it not.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
I'm more responsible when I do the knee jerk reaction.
That's what it comes out there as I'm more respond I'm.

Speaker 3 (15:47):
Ready to tell you, with three witnesses on my side,
Ian and Mary mac and in disager and in the
millions on Twitter, you do not have any patients or
you are not reasoned with your knee jerk reac.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
Did you see where I had Miami this time today?

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Have you changed your mind again?

Speaker 2 (16:05):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (16:05):
I did.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
That's roman numeral number six, number six changed their record
again for the eightieth time.

Speaker 3 (16:12):
Well, let's get into that next. Just just let's hitt all.
Let's get all the dingers out of the way.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
Early.

Speaker 3 (16:18):
We had baseball talk and we had a little bit
on the BAB.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
I proposed this for you, and I'm not kidding around.
I mean, if you're lucky, I'm not answering the phone
for the Dolphins. But if they called and said, do
you want tree hedronson, I would say you could have
Tyreek Hill. Goodbye, let's go straight on. Swap there you go,
let's do it. Let's do it.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
Trey Hendrickson, Yeah, what I say? That was close enough?

Speaker 2 (16:42):
It was close.

Speaker 3 (16:43):
Okay, well, I mean I don't think that's going to
be a tray that'll be made, but.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
No, but I would do it. That's what I'd give
up Tyreek Hill for him, man, just about anybody, anybody
but a change. Let's go, let's do this.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
I thought you wanted draft picks for him, but you
know what I know.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
I'd rather get. I'd give up a whole bunch of
drive picks for Hendrickson. Look, how many do they want?
I'll give you a boatload?

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Is he the savior for your defense?

Speaker 2 (17:08):
Oh gosh? And then the teams that are like interested
are all garbage teams? Right? Was what Carolina? The Colts?
I forget? It was the Browns?

Speaker 3 (17:20):
Hey, Miles Garrett with Trey Hendrickson, that's pretty good edge guy.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
The Dolphins got him. I would email the boss telling
him I need some time off to go to the
super Bowl party for the Dolphins.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
So Trey Hendrickson now is going to be the difference
between the Dolphins making making the super Bowl.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (17:39):
It's my every week, guys, my every week? All right,
when we come back, we'll dive into I guess some
more Dolphins talking s. Are you playing we' rolling through

the Caleb Williams hype right now. You weren't entertained or
impressed with what you saw or I was agent?

Speaker 2 (19:08):
Oh, I was absolutely impressed. Absolutely No, there's no doubt.
I was thinking to myself, Okay, now you don't have
to worry about drafting a quarterback and fantasy football. You
can think Caleb Williams. But then this is gonna be
all these knuckleheads are gonna want him anyway. No, he
looks a lot better than he did last year when
that offense was just putrid. I mean it was it
couldn't get out of its own way. So we'll see

(19:31):
what this year brings him. I can't wait to see
what kind of numbers he's gonna put up.

Speaker 3 (19:34):
You don't think anyone's gonna need jerk react to this
over the next forty eight hours.

Speaker 2 (19:37):
It's all over Twitter. They're already in the playoffs. I
think they clenched the division off the double check? Could
someone double check that I'm being serious? Did you not
look at Twitter?

Speaker 3 (19:47):
The do you know what. I did something different today.
I stayed off Twitter before the show, and I know
you were living it because you didn't have anything else
to do.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
I guess all the twitters from Chicago. I didn't know
that till today, but I guess they all live in Chicago.
The people that are on Twitter.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
May haven't had a lot to be happy about, and
they've had They spent a week with the Big Why
wasn't Caleb Williams in Game number one?

Speaker 2 (20:11):
The even the announcer I don't even know who it was,
said the Bears are back. The Bears are back.

Speaker 3 (20:18):
I'm like, oh, by down, we got to settle down
with some of our preseason announcers.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
But the Bears are back. I know, but that's what
it is. In the preseason. You get a bunch of that.

Speaker 3 (20:28):
Oh absolutely. But it's interesting because you have here on
Roman Numeral number one, just a recap of week two
of the preseason. And it's kind of funny because you
and I were on last night, so we did a
seven p to ten PCE Central Time show Time Zone show,
so we were able to really kind of dive into
some of the things that we learned in Saturday games.

(20:48):
But we went to bed. Sorry, we got off the
air and I was going to bed watching the end
of the Broncos Cardinals game, which provided an incredibly hilarious moment.
And then we only had two games today. We have
one more tomorrow night. So anything from yesterday that, as
you had some time to think about it kind of
percolate in the mind. Anything kind of really jump out
at you from Saturday that maybe we missed, or from

(21:09):
the two games today that really caught your eye.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
Well, not so much about well, there's a bunch of
individual stuff, yes, but I did say and I said
this after week one, and it's gonna stand true for
week two. And I think it's going to go ahead
and start off the season like this, where the offenses
are way ahead of the defenses. I think we'll see
a lot of high scoring games.

Speaker 3 (21:31):
And Chris, well, so I think that didn't really help
the Bills today too much.

Speaker 2 (21:35):
No, but something I didn't realize. Chris and the announcers
are actually trying to explain this, and my head started
to explode and give me a headache when they were
talking about yards. There's gonna be more going forward on
fourth down. Chris, if I cross midfield. I don't know
if you thought about this. If I cross midfield the
punter stays on the sideline, I'm either going forward on

(21:57):
fourth down or I'm kicking a field goal. Even the
forty nine yard line.

Speaker 3 (22:01):
Sixty six yard are there, that's very makeable, right, you
might quite go that far.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
Yet, I was gonna say, maybe forty five yarder, I
mean forty five yard line, which is what a sixty
two yarder? And you know, I guess it depends on
the score, but you're gonna give up some big field position.
But you can go for it because if you, you know,
kick it and you screw that up, they'll get the
ball the thirty five yard line or something. So I

(22:27):
think I'm going to go for it on fourth and three,
fourth and four, but I'm not going to punt. I'm
really gonna putify cross midfield. That's not gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (22:36):
I don't feel like though, that's I mean, no offense
to the I don't feel like that's some earth shattering,
news breaking thing. No, it's like a teams going for
it on fourth and more a lot more.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
Yeah, Yeah, I think maybe this year we'll see an
uptick in that. But yeah, I think we're gonna see
a lot of that. I think we'll see a lot
more field goal attempts. I think, you know, like of
sixty yards or more, that's gonna be commonplace, to be honest, commonplace. Yeah,
sixty yarder, We're going to see a lot of people.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
Anyway, Hold on, you think that we're gonna see sixty
yard field goals become commonplace in the NFL?

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Why wouldn't it. Look what these guys are hitting.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
You got to be one guy that made a seventy
yard field goal and that's really about it.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
But even in practice when they warm up their hit again,
that's practice.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
I mean they're getting a tea sometimes and they have
no rush coming at them. Where's the evidence to back
up that we're going to see more sixty yard field
goal attempts because some dude in is seventy yarder?

Speaker 2 (23:28):
Hey, I did the math on this, Chris, don't go ahead.
You know you don't have a math major here. Why
are you What are you going to do fourth and
four from the other team's forty forty five yard line?
What are you going to do on fourth and four?

Speaker 3 (23:39):
Depends on the score of the game. I'm probably gonna
go for.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
It zero zero, we're in the first quarter.

Speaker 3 (23:45):
Probably go for it.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Yeah, I guess right. Get kicking the field goal that
one that is a long one. If it's right before
a half or you know, something like that, maybe you
you go ahead and tee it up and see if
you can nail it. But it should. These kickers are
nailing on like that like crazy. It's all over the place.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
I mean, you're again, I know I'm bogging down on this,
but I don't think sixty yard field goals are going
to become like commonplace.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
Do we have a producer for today's show? Find out
how many sixty yards? I'm looking at it right now.
How many did we have last year?

Speaker 3 (24:20):
From nineteen They had one hundred and eighteen field goals
from sixty yards in the span of fifty four years.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
Okay, so how many was last year?

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Though not many. It looks like I'm at like seven.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Oh god, way over that once again. I went way
over that. Please, you'll see a lot. But that's not commonplace. Well,
you're not doubled.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
There have been forty successful attempts of field goals over
sixty or more yards since nineteen sixty. Arnie, Now there's
been a significant increase in the attempts of sixty yard
field goals. Thirty three of the sixty yard field goals
have occurred since two thousand and nine, and half have
been since twenty nineteen.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, this is not Tom Dempsey. I'm talking about out
there with a half a foot kicking with a metal
plate in it. We're talking about some real strong legs
out there. My guy, Tyler Loop over at Baltimore Ravens,
that guy could kick a seventy yard.

Speaker 3 (25:17):
Of the guy for Dancy, you're a guy.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
He went to Arizona.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
Okay, that's I just I think whenever you're trying to
say as soon as you cross the fifty you're kicking
a field goal, I don't agree with that. I just
I still.

Speaker 2 (25:29):
Think go for it on fourth out.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
I'm not. Yeah, but again, this isn't breaking news. We've
been doing this more and more every single year in
the NFL, especially in college.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Oh college for sure. Yeah, we've seen a lot more
of that also, and I'm glad. I think it helps
the game. So anyway back to my point that I
think there's gonna be a lot more scoring and a
lot more overs kind of like what we're having right
now in the preseason, and we haven't really gotten full
time starting quarterbacks, so we've had a lot of overs.

Speaker 3 (25:57):
We've had him for basically one court, and we've had
I mean, let's be honest, a lot of these over
under numbers too, are set pretty low. So I mean,
it's not like they're going in there with massive numbers
like we might see during the regular season anyway, but
ten points.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
Lower than they usually should be probably all right.

Speaker 3 (26:12):
So when we come back to the Fox Sports Radio studios,
let's take our first trip through your tweets to the
program tonight before Steve to Seger is in the house,
everything that's going on after a big night, a big
night in LA for Steve last night, I was a
fun one.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
Hey, Steve, start with your Charger scorer. Tell us about
that game, would you please?

Speaker 4 (26:30):
That was the Stetson Bennett game, as it will forever
be known by the way I do like the Arizona reference. Then,
actually something positive from the Arizona football program. Oh my god,
you guys mentioned the field goals. Keep in mind, with
the new touchback rules, you could be starting a drive
at your own thirty five.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
That's what I try to tell Chris only two.

Speaker 4 (26:52):
First downs and kick the Bears game tonight. They kicked
off seven times, not once did it land in the
end zone. And then there's whoever that was in Bill's
uniforms tonight. Chicago won the game thirty eight to nothing.
The Bills backups, well, they had more yardage on kick
returns than they had on offense in this game tonight.

(27:13):
It was one hundred and eighty yards net offense. It
was over one hundred and ninety yards on kickoff.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
Can we go back and find out a week ago
somebody said the Bills are having major problems watch out
for that. Remember that, Chris, Remember that?

Speaker 4 (27:25):
Well, I can't identify who this was playing for the
Bills tonight, so I don't know if they're having major
problems at all.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Exactly postal workers.

Speaker 4 (27:33):
I mean, Frank Gordon Junior got a lot of work
and a fumble, but a lot of work. I mean,
is he gonna get more work than cook this year? Honestly?
So okay, Bill's backups on third down conversions? Oh for
eight thirty eight nothing Chicago. The final Jacksonville was at
New Orleans today, finished in a tie, no overtime in
preseason seventeen all of the final Spencer Ratler of the Saints,

(27:55):
a late touchdown pass and a two point conversion. New
Orleans has traded full or Jacksonville center Luke Fortner as

Bryson Deshamble qualified for the US Ryder Cup team that
will take on the Europeans next month in New York.

won in overtime at Connecticut, which is six and twenty seven.
Las Vegas won at Dallas, which is nine and twenty
six wins for Phoenix, Washington, and Atlanta took the late

Baltimore won twelve nothing at Houston.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
Back to you, right, thanks a lot, Steve.

Speaker 3 (29:56):
As always busy night, just getting started in we'll dive
into what we've learned after two weeks of the NFL preseason.
Get you ready for the season opener college football next Saturday.
You realize by this time next week we'll have a
top twenty five matchup already in the books.

Speaker 4 (30:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
Football. I was looking at the college football slate for
my picks tonight and it's slim Pickens. I mean, it's like,
we zero, I can see. I thought I can also
piggyback Thursday and Friday games, but it happened to be
those games are a week from Thursday, right, but we yeah, yeah,
so slim pickens. But that's okay. I got four picks out.

(30:34):
I'm ready to roll out. Let's do it.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
You've got three really fun games, I think to start
the season, and you're just so spoiled. Well, I can't
have any of these peon teams playing, even though it's
kind of what your team's become.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
Oh wow, wow, No, I don't. I didn't pick. I
picked like named teams, so you know it's not any.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
It's above you to pick non name teams.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Yeah, pretty much. People want to know the big games,
you know, they wanted like the Texas games and.

Speaker 3 (31:04):
Right, but it's still we're still two weeks away from that.
You know, we still got a little bit of time
before we get there to that. But I think the
top twenty five matchup is one that you guys are
gonna dig in Ireland next week.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
Starving State Kansas City. I say you're starving for that game.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
I mean, I think we all should be for college
football to be back, so we don't have to talk
about stupid things like one hundred and twenty fourteen press
are playoff fields like the Big ten? Uh JP hunkle Right,
So when are we going to get to see YouTube
videos of Spaniard and playing nothing better than watching Arnie
barf in a bucket? Oh yeah?

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Can you imagine if we had YouTube and remember that
that one show I got sick and I was barfing
in a in my recycled bucket.

Speaker 3 (31:44):
Oh my, well you didn't get sick, you over eight
before the show.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
Oh go, same thing, same thing, so.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Paul rights Fox Fox playing the Goo Goo Dolls while
watching the Bills get blown out as my own personal.

Speaker 2 (31:57):
Hell, remember I told you my wife went to the
Google a couple of weeks ago. Why didn't you go,
Like I've been busy up here trying to sell my house.
You know, somebody's got to stay up here.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Mister nobody. It's the preseason. Why would anyone care that
Caleb Williams look good in a game the Bills probably
couldn't care less about I mean, the Bills didn't even
have a starter that sniffed the field.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
No, the Bears fans cared about it. I promise you
that the local radio stations in Chicago must be burning
up after that game.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
Oh you know they are. And then our buddy late
night drug tester on the Baseball Take rights. MLB should
realign the Penny Pincher Division. Have the Twins, Pirates, Reds,
White Sox, and Marlins all in the same division.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
You know, somebody texted and going, you know, why are
we gonna deal with realignment?

Speaker 3 (32:43):
You know?

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Could you I started thinking about this, Mets, Yankees, Phillies, Pirates,
Boston if you had two months of the divisional games,
you might not even have to get on an airplane
except for the games in Pittsburgh. You could obviously met shakies.
You could just you know us Boston went three hours away,

(33:04):
I mean Philadelphia two hours away. You could do that
for two months and not even get in an airplane. Chris,
how great is that?

Speaker 3 (33:11):
Well, if they're really truly concerned about travel and the
fatigue it puts on the players, then yeah, that would
be great.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
That'd be unbelievable, that'd be crazy.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
It's just weird. Whenever sometimes something it's like we care
about the players, It's like, do you do you really hear?
Is this something that someone else has brought up? So
under the guys of players safety.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
You're able to get away with it? I don't know.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
Oh, by the way. In addition to Sooner, Lisa's idea
of is a bit more Biltmore out of at Biltmore?
But why do it? Even?

Speaker 2 (33:40):
You don't even never heard of the Biltmore before? What's
wrong with you? No? I haven't.

Speaker 3 (33:44):
And then Colin writes, what about Alaskan cruise out of Vancouver.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
I'm not a cruise guy, you know what I mean.
I'm not really type that, you know, to do something
like that, I'm not thirty years though, maybe a cruise guy,
or is that you've never been never been?

Speaker 3 (33:58):
I've never been either, so I don't. Maybe I am.
Maybe it's just one of those things that haven't found
out yet. You know, maybe as soon as I go
on a cruise, I'll be like, yea cruising everywhere I.

Speaker 2 (34:07):
Read those stories. You know, first of all, the rooms
are small, and then they're like the waves made everybody sick,
and you know it's like.

Speaker 3 (34:15):
A room guarantee. You you just ruined any cruise endorsman
we have. But I'd be willing to give it a try,
that's for certain. All Right, we got a break when
we come back. We got a shoehorn in this college
football talk at some point tonight. I don't know if
it's going to be next or if it's going to
be the top of the hour, but we've got two
major stories that broke in college football. You know what,

(34:36):
Let's talk about it next with Arntine Plank right here
on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Sorry, it adds to Paul's personal hell. Not only did
you have the Goo Goo dolls being played while the
Bears were beating the Bills thirty eight to zero. But
now you have Mary using it as a rejoint on
the show tonight. All apologies, All apologies. First, the Michigan saga,
I don't know. Did you have it on the Roman

(35:08):
numeral rundown tonight?

Speaker 2 (35:09):
Yes, I did. I know we talked about it yesterday,
but I had it as Roman numeral number nine for
the Michigan penalties, and I thought everybody talking about it
on the network all day today. I think we were
one of the first. We were talking about it yesterday,
and I think they kind of echoed exactly what we
were saying. You know, timing is everything. You made us

(35:33):
wait two years. I don't think people still care. The
penalty wasn't deep enough to affect Michigan football anyway, and
I think the only people that really cared was the
Michigan fans and the Ohio State fans, and I guess
maybe Michigan State fans. But other than that, it was
so long ago, and you know, and we know that

(35:54):
Harvard is never going to come back the coaching in
Michigan anyway. So I think it's just kind of being
swept under the rug, and people have moved.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
On from it in the national scene, right, what about
in the pigeonholed college scene where we live, eat and
breathe this every day. I would agree. I think that
we've even moved past it to the point of why
are you even appealing this Michigan. Now, the faction that
hasn't forgotten about it are the groups that recently have

(36:22):
had two for go post seasons because of nca violations. Right,
ok we say basketball. I mentioned this the other night.
Louisville basketball had a title taken from them, had victory strip.
Miami football got in some hot water a while back
with the Nevin Shapiro stuff. But I guess we're not
trying to and it's fine. I mean, this is this

(36:43):
is the final act of the NCAA as the enforcement.
Are you wear that?

Speaker 2 (36:47):
No?

Speaker 3 (36:48):
No, it was the College Sports Commission takes over from
this point forward.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
Okay. So, and like I was about to say, those
other penalties were earlier things. Times are a change and
as well.

Speaker 3 (36:58):
Some of them were daring the chain times. I mean,
the Oklahoma State one was right on the cusp of
the change.

Speaker 2 (37:03):
Times.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
And how does Kansas keep skirting from this Adidas deal
and this investigation that's been going on for what seems
like a decade. Now, you had cast Sean Miller his
job right in Arizona?

Speaker 2 (37:15):
Right? Why do I get the feeling though? They never
did prove anything against Sean Miller, did.

Speaker 3 (37:19):
They They he's got the Texas job.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
Yeah, so they never really So I really don't know
what happened in that whole situation. Why am I getting
the feeling that you think that Michigan should have been
penalized more? Who me? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (37:31):
I think they should because everybody basically says that they
had enough evidence to truly hand over a rather significant
penalty involving a postseason ban.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
What would you have wanted the penalty to You wanted
the postseason ban? Is that what you?

Speaker 3 (37:46):
Yeah? I think they should have at least been held
out of the postseason for a year. If everything that
is in that is laid out like it happened and
no one is arguing the facts, how could their only
penal be a fine? How could the.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
Only pun of the money though we're adding.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
One game, Well, they're not even gonna pay it. It's
gonna be money that's gonna be held out of their
dispersement from the Big Ten and even if they do
pay it, they've got deep pocketed boosters that have shown
that they'll help make up anything from Michigan right now,
I but see I say that, and I go back
to the original point. I don't even think it's that
big of a deal. I mean, everybody spy on on everybody,

(38:26):
some of the great stories in college football. The only
reason this is a rule is because those of us
at a higher tax bracket were it was unfair to
those in a lower tax bracket because some could have
afford to advanced scout others could, so they made this rule.

Speaker 2 (38:42):
So it's a dumb rule anyway.

Speaker 3 (38:44):
But I don't know, man, I just I felt like,
with all the evidence and all the line that took
place in this dude, it has to be something more
than just all right, hey, hey, you guys, don't do
that again.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
Okay, you have the wonder how much are really helped
them and AVO was worth all the effort to doing
something like that.

Speaker 3 (39:01):
Oh I don't know, but you tell if I tell
you right now that Arizona could win a national championship
in two years in football, I don't think you care
what surrounded it, what people say about it.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
Give me the fake mustache or the trench got right
now exactly?

Speaker 3 (39:16):
I mean, I mean, I think that's how nine out
of ten people feel about it. They didn't do it
with dignity and honor. Who guess what. Nobody cares. That
title's not coming down and there's not an asterisk connext
to it either.

Speaker 2 (39:28):
I'm not Greg Brady, I'm not. I didn't tell them, oh,
that was a fake playbook, So I retricked you. I
would have just let him believe it was the real thing,
and he did believe it was the real thing, and
they lost anyway, So well, I will say this, remember
that episode. You don't remember that episode? I do.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
I thought I thought you were going with the picture
in the corner of the end zone when he saved
the day.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
I don't know that that is the same episode, but
it is the same episode, which, by the way, somebody
sent us a little gift earlier tonight.

Speaker 3 (39:55):
That's making the rounds and it's it's been around for
a minute.

Speaker 2 (39:58):
I say, gift meme.

Speaker 3 (39:59):
Whatever. But Jim Harball, prior to the cheating scandal, was
one eleven as an underdog one to feign Bowl games,
didn't beat Ohio State, had a losing record against top
twenty five teams, and then the timing of this begins,
and all of a sudden, Michigan is unbeatable. I think
it had to do more with recruiting and development, but

(40:19):
if those rumor mongers are out there, Arnie and those stats,
it's hard to ignore them. I felt like, for as
much time as we spent on this, we deserved a
little bit more than just a fine and a suspension.
But I'm happy that Sharon Moore still gets to coach
on the sidelines when he goes back to his alma

(40:39):
modern week two. I don't want any excuses, Michigan fan,
when you get rolled when you come here to Norman
in week two, any freaking excuses. Okay, so you'll have
your coach there, so it should be good to go.
We have one of the college story from this week,
and it involves expanded playoffs, but first we got to
dive into more of the preseason next with Arnie and
Plank on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (41:01):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (41:04):
Do we have a preseason Hall of Fame ceremony that
we need to get ready for it tonight or did
we already induct everyone last night.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
I think we well, I think we pretty much inducted
everybody in the last second. Yeah, I don't think there's
anybody I'm gonna add in there.

Speaker 3 (41:22):
You don't need to add yourself some Spencer Rattler in
here at all.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
Or no, maybe you were gonna say, what Wheeler because
he had two touchdowns and eighty yards on the ground,
that's pretty good.

Speaker 3 (41:34):
I mean, that's that's not bad. But I don't, I know,
you're a sucker usually for quarterbacks.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
Yeah, but I got to go eventually, got to put
a running back in there. We've only had very few
running backs in there.

Speaker 3 (41:44):
Well, yeah, you know, and again it doesn't matter if
Ian Wheeler Wheeler did it against the third team offense,
our defense or not. Still, do you know where Ian
Wheeler's from? No, not a Howard Howard per City. Yeah, yeah,
big one.

Speaker 2 (42:01):
I think I played tougher competition in my innermural days.

Speaker 3 (42:05):
Well, you just like keep digging this little hole for
all of the all of the people that think that
you're an elitist anyway, So you think that you play
more difficult competition in your rec league than Howard University.

Speaker 2 (42:19):
Howard University. There you go, my friend.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
Why are you taking shot that I listen, I at
my friends that went to Howard that I work with Arnie.
I'm just making sure that I'm distancing myself. Mistake right
now it is Arnie Span you're making fun of Howard University,
not me. But okay, that must one. That might be
a good one. That might be a good one. He
looked pretty good tonight, I kinda. I mean, I know

(42:44):
it was over parable pressure.

Speaker 2 (42:46):
They didn't make you want to go ahead and move
the needle a little bit or anything like that. If
we were in Vegas right now, I'd say to you, Chris,
I think I'm gonna put some money on the Bear
season over or something. I like the way they look,
or maybe I'll take him in the first game the season,
depending on who they're playing. I just they were looking
good today, you know.

Speaker 3 (43:04):
I would I would first of all, tell you who
was that team they played? Like what what player really
stood out for you on the players that were on
the field for the Buffalo Bills tonight.

Speaker 2 (43:17):
Nobody there you go.

Speaker 3 (43:20):
I would plead with you to have a little bit
of caution on that front.

Speaker 2 (43:25):
Even it's because I can't remember ever. Caleb Williams wowing me.

Speaker 3 (43:30):
You obviously didn't watch him at Oklahoma or USC.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
Well, I meant in the pros, I guess is what
I'm saying, and he's.

Speaker 3 (43:36):
Gonna wow you behind that offensive line last year, they.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
Will see if they're gonna be that much better, and
people think it is. I mean, the way they look
right now, they looked, they look better now than they've
ever looked. That's that's honest.

Speaker 3 (43:48):
Seven and seven and a half seven point five is
the over under, damn. And they were five and twelve
last year, so they weren't awfully off on seven and
a half. They went four and five at home last year,
won just one road game. Of course, their old season
is a little bit skewed because let's remember, it took

(44:09):
a hail Mary from Washington.

Speaker 2 (44:11):
Team, right, and that's when that guy was on the
sidelight taunting the fans, right.

Speaker 3 (44:15):
Right, exactly. It took a it took a hail Mary
for Washington to beat them last.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
Year, and then he went south after that game.

Speaker 3 (44:23):
Oh my gosh, they were they were they were about
to be five and two. Ooh if they win that game,
they were about to be five and two on the season,
and then they lost that game and that started what
was it nine to ten in a row that they
lost down the stretch? My goodness, yeah, that was that
was the first of ten straight losses.

Speaker 2 (44:44):
I knew they had a bunch in a row, but
I didn't think it was that many.

Speaker 1 (44:47):
And not.

Speaker 3 (44:49):
None of them were all that terribly close. At an
overtime game with Minnesota. They had a tight game with Detroit,
in a tight game with Green Bay. But there's a
thirty eight thirteen on here at thirty four to seventeen.

Speaker 2 (45:01):
Like that will kill you.

Speaker 3 (45:02):
That's thirty I mean, if you think about it. Caleb
Williams in Week five had a three hundred yard passing game.
In the loss to Indianapolis. In Week three he threw
for three sixty three. So and you love your stats,
but I would say tonight was a good indication that, hey,

(45:23):
at the very least, they look a little bit more
competent offensively than they did last year at times where
it was I don't.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
Think it's a division that's going to be defensive oriented.

Speaker 3 (45:32):
You know, you think it's going to be a big
scoring division.

Speaker 2 (45:36):
That's for sure. They'll be putting up a lot of points.

Speaker 3 (45:39):
Well, in the truck Detroit's got to be better defensively
than they were last year. And that's wild to think
that we're saying that. And their defensive coordinators now the
head coach of the Jets and I don't know. We
do we do wellness, Check on Jets fans and see
how they're doing after last night. Knockod Chris not good
he and Roddy.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
Oh my gosh, that was hard the Saints to run
for their money for the worst team in the NFL.

Speaker 3 (46:02):
I thought that, I thought you guaranteed us, you promised
us last week that the Colts were the worst team.

Speaker 2 (46:07):
Yeah, maybe it wasn't. They're not as bad as I thought,
maybe one of the worst. Bottom five them thinking I'm
gonna have to give a bottom five for the NFL
before the season starts.

Speaker 3 (46:17):
So you, I mean, hold on. I think it was
three things. I guarantee you, and I promise you will happen.
And here we are a week later, and you're.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
Gonna hold me to that stuff. Get out of here.

Speaker 3 (46:29):
Well, I mean again, it's it's kind of the approach
that you take whenever you say I guarantee you, oh,
I promise you, and then we're all stupid because we
don't agree with you. So I mean, when you change
that in less than a week, Arnie, it might lead
to us say, dude, what are you doing the change.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
It a week?

Speaker 3 (46:46):
A week while a week Yeah, in a week the preseason,
did anyone get hurt?

Speaker 7 (46:53):
No?

Speaker 2 (46:53):
Look out, look Out genty went from the worst thing
ever to having a good game in week two.

Speaker 3 (46:58):
I just think you need to stop promise. Some people
think I wish you would stop you. I don't know.
I don't know if that's what you want is to
be wrong about everything. I just I wish you would
quit promising that.

Speaker 2 (47:09):
There's another host. I think they ran a promo and
you're the host.

Speaker 9 (47:12):
Go.

Speaker 2 (47:13):
I promise you this is going to happen. I promise you.
You can't.

Speaker 3 (47:17):
You can't promise me anything. You're already won eighty ing
on the promise.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
You know what I can promise you wait till you
wait till we get my college picks. Promise you for
know is what I promise you.

Speaker 3 (47:27):
You can't promise us that I can.

Speaker 2 (47:30):
I can't.

Speaker 3 (47:31):
Why do you do this to me? Why why can't
you just be like somewhat normal? Whenever it comes to
talk about you've you literally sat here and called us
on morons and idiots and we're all dopes and you
know football more than we do. And a week later
you're agreeing with us, like how are we supposed to
compartmentalize that we're a bunch of morons? We're a bunch

(47:53):
of idiots already knows all? And then a week later
you're like, oh, yeah, well I don't really feel that way.
Why you gotta hold me to that tip?

Speaker 2 (47:59):
Sometimes you gotta Sometimes, you know, things change when from
gaining the game, you can't. You know, if you know
somebody has a good game, you got to acknowledge that.
You can't ignore it.

Speaker 3 (48:08):
You do you ignore when they have a good game
if you think that they stink. I mean, I've done
this with you for a better part of a decade now,
it's not hard to figure it out.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
Just as long as I get too on my fantasy
football team, that's all that matter.

Speaker 3 (48:22):
You've already given up on him, I thought, now I'm
back out his bandwagon. He's gonna have a big year
this year. This is the year or two of he's
gotta have a big year. He has through so he's
going to have And then it becomes he's gotta he.

Speaker 2 (48:34):
Has to gotta have a big year. He's gotta lead them.

Speaker 3 (48:38):
We'll get to more of your preseason takes in a bit.
Since we have no Todd Furman tonight, we'll be able
to dive in a little bit more in depth in
our next segment. But Onie, before we grab a time out,
let me go ahead and bring up the other college
football story that's making the rounds. This was a Pete
Thamill report yesterday, and oh, by the way, Joey Aguilar
today was named the starting quarterback for the Ten Vols.

(49:00):
Apparently there was a quarterback battle there and we're still
waiting for Ohio State to name their starting quarterback. But
according to a report from Pete Thamil yesterday, the Big
Ten started populating and expanded college football playoff idea, which
would include twenty four to twenty eight teams. It proposed
us eliminating the conference championship games and having a large

(49:23):
number of auto bids for all Power four leagues. For example,
in a twenty eight team model that was proposed, auto
bids would go to the Big Ten. In the SEC,
they would get seven each, five each for the ACC
and the Big twelve. So what is that twenty four
teams right there?

Speaker 2 (49:39):
Yeah, two was the rest of its twenty four to
twenty eight teams.

Speaker 3 (49:44):
Two bids for leagues outside the Power four, and still
two at large teams.

Speaker 2 (49:51):
I mean most room for Yeah, doesn't mean much room
for the you know, the have nots a little bit.

Speaker 3 (49:56):
Noah, get DAG got two bids and then there's two
at large. Two.

Speaker 2 (50:00):
They're not going to get the large You know that,
and I know that.

Speaker 3 (50:03):
Well, if you start thinking about it, though.

Speaker 2 (50:06):
We need the eighth place team in the SEC.

Speaker 3 (50:08):
Well, that's what I was just about to say. I mean,
you're going seven deep in the Big ten in the ACC.
I mean, I gotta be honest with you. I don't
even know off the top of my head who.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
Go five deep? Right?

Speaker 3 (50:19):
I think?

Speaker 2 (50:21):
What's that seven deep in the SEC? Is?

Speaker 3 (50:24):
That's what I just said? In the Big ten? Okay?

Speaker 2 (50:26):
You got I'm sorry, you got me confused.

Speaker 3 (50:27):
How did I confuse it?

Speaker 2 (50:28):
You said it was the ACC or maybe I just
misheard you.

Speaker 3 (50:31):
Go ahead, the SEC and the Big ten get seven
teams each. And my point is, I don't even know
who finished seventh in the SEC last year because there's
a part of me that thinks it might have been Oklahoma,
and I think they only won two conference games, So
is that a playoff team? I mean, I don't know.
I mean I would say, let's see, hold on here, No,
I'm wrong, one, two, three, four, five, Okay, seventh place

(50:54):
last year in the SEC was a team that went
eight and five and five and three in conference play
Texas saying it. And then let's just say, hypothetically, for
the fun of this, we're going over to the Big Ten.
The seventh place team in the Big Ten last year,
Arnie was Michigan, who most people pretty much thought had
a terrible season last year when they finished eight and

(51:15):
five and five and four in conference.

Speaker 2 (51:17):
So they would have gotten into the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (51:19):
Then yeah, it would have been Oregon, Indiana, inn State,
Ohio State, Illinois, Iowa, and Michigan.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
So that bare way would my Arizona Wildcats in the
top five of the Big twelve and we would get
into the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
You finished out of the sixteen teams, You finished fifteen
out of sixteen last year.

Speaker 2 (51:39):
Yeah, yeah, that's a you know, you would need a.

Speaker 3 (51:42):
Lot of help to get up that list. But this
is crazy, right, This isn't something that we could possibly do, right.

Speaker 2 (51:47):
I've not heard a lot of pushback on that. When
it first came out, what Saturday or Friday or whatever
it was, I thought people were going to be, Okay,
enough is enough. This is getting out of hand, it's
getting crazy. Too many teams, you know, we're diluting everything else.
And do you think that takes away from big time games,

(52:07):
out of conference games? Knowing that, you know, I actually
think there'll be more knowing that you could lose and
still get into the playoffs with three losses, so it
won't kill you all that much, you know what I'm saying.
So I'm okay with it. I think it's fine to
have that many teams in there.

Speaker 3 (52:26):
If you some people will try to get carried away.
Remember we have a ton of teams now that play
FBS football, you know. I mean, So if you're like,
that's too too many teams, I mean, there's one hundred
and thirty six teams that play college football at the
FBS level, and there's this is probably cater to what

(52:47):
is it in the two power to thirty four teams
between the SEC and the Big Ten, And then you
add in gosh, I couldn't even tell you off the
top of my head you're sixteen in the Big twelve
and they're eighteen in the ACC or sixteen in the ACC.
I mean, it's still probably really focused on schools from
those four conferences in other day, right, Right, But you
want to be able to have a larger percentage of

(53:09):
teams based on how many teams play football make the playoffs, right, the.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
More the bet.

Speaker 3 (53:14):
That's why we wanted to increase it. In basketball, no
one is for that, by the way.

Speaker 2 (53:19):
Well we're already up to what sixty eight or whatever
it is. Yeah, then there's a certain limit on that.
But the football, I'm totally okay. Who would have thought
this was going to go on ten years ago that
would get to this point. We're really increased once we
got the playoff going. We're really shot up in teams.
But I like it. And plus you're gonna have a

(53:39):
home field advantage too, so you know, I like that.
I don't like neutral psychic.

Speaker 3 (53:44):
We think we haven't really seen the bracket makeout of
it because they said when they say twenty games on
college campuses, so I'm too bad at math. But if
that's the case, that would be more games on college campuses.
But it also sounds aren't he like they would be
replacing a conference championship game? And I just don't. I
don't think you're gonna gonna get everyone who agreed to

(54:05):
that in the short term. How m a drugger would
the season go too?

Speaker 2 (54:08):
That's what I want to know. I need.

Speaker 3 (54:10):
I need a graphic. I need someone to draw it.
Break out your dry erase board and draw me a
graphic of what this would look.

Speaker 2 (54:16):
Well like Ross Perrot, just get out the sharpion draw
it out for you or was yeah? Please?

Speaker 3 (54:22):
So wait before we break you're saying you're cool with this.
You wouldn't find it.

Speaker 2 (54:26):
No, not at all. Twenty four twenty eight I think
I would probably drove the line right about there. But yeah,
I'm seven seven, five and five would give us twenty four.
I prefer to give the two and two, give the
small guys a little bit of a chance to get
on in. I don't know what happens if we're just
gonna have twenty four teams, how do they have nots
get in? But other than that, I'm totally for it.

(54:48):
I'd love to see that happen. Interesting.

Speaker 3 (54:50):
I'm gonna mark this down. Aren't you actually thinking that
an idea out of the big ten's a good idea.
This is a monumental moment in the program right now.

Speaker 2 (54:57):
I don't think there's much pushback on it at all.

Speaker 3 (55:00):
I think there's a ton of pushback on it right really?

Speaker 2 (55:02):
Or do you think people just don't think it's going
to happen so it's not worth fighting him out?

Speaker 3 (55:06):
I think I think probably you're you're looking down the
right path there. I think people looked at that and
their first thought was twelve or sixteen?

Speaker 1 (55:14):
Bro?

Speaker 3 (55:14):
I mean, can we just make up? Are we gonna
stay twelve? Because if we stay at twelve that's great.
Are we gonna go to fourteen or we're gonna go
to sixteen suddenly when it's like we need to have
twenty eight teams. I just think there's I just think
there's fatigue around this topic. So you think less is
better than us? Is more that? I think we haven't
even given twelve a shot. We had one year of
twelve with the Goofy ranking system. Now we go into

(55:37):
straight seating our Goofy seating system. Now we go into
one year of twelve with a straight seating system. Let's
see how it plays out, you know, and then we're
in a rush because you know what the number is
for next year, right it teams in the playoffs with
the twenty twenty six season. Now we don't know yet.

Speaker 2 (55:53):
We have no.

Speaker 3 (55:53):
Idea I was gonna.

Speaker 2 (55:55):
I don't know what it is.

Speaker 3 (55:56):
It hasn't been determined yet. It's still very much up
in the air. So for me, I'm like, justk, can
we see that twelve looks for a second year and
see if we like it, maybe get some more competitive
first round games. So I'm still like a I guess
I'm still like a work in progress guy, because I say,
give twelve a chance. And as soon as we got

(56:16):
twelve already, that's when they started saying, well, we gotta
get up to sixteen or company more.

Speaker 2 (56:21):
Fourteen will company more meaningful games there would be in November.
Just think about that. Even if it's the team fighting
it out with the choir fifth, sixth, seventh place, if
you would be tuned in like crazy, the fans would
be going to games, It'd be nuts out there.

Speaker 3 (56:40):
I would add, do you find people getting crazy about
a team that's fighting to get into the wild card?
Because when You're like, got should have every team playing
a game, But I don't know. It just there's some
that would disagree with you. I tend to agree with you,
but they would say this is taken away from the
postseason because or the regular season, because well, why does

(57:00):
it matter who wins Ohio State Michigan During the regular season,
They're both probably getting in the playoffs. Why does it
matter who wins ou Texas? Seven teams deep in the SEC.
Both teams got a really good shot of making the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (57:12):
Yeah, but I don't think the loser of the Michigan
Ohio State game. I'm tired of those days where you
lose that one game and your whole season's finished.

Speaker 3 (57:19):
Well, that's not even the case now.

Speaker 2 (57:21):
No, it's not the case now, right, and then it
should never have been the case to begin with.

Speaker 3 (57:25):
Yeah, all right, we got a break. When we come
back to the Fox Sports Radio studios, if you guys
want to check in on the college football expansion talk
for the playoffs, I'm fine with it. I just again,
it's one of those topics where I can't wait for
next week. There'll be a report I've heard they might
make it a fifty team playoff. You know, he's just
gonna keep growing. But if you got takes on it,
hit us up at Steinking Genius one. That's Arnie's Twitter handle.

(57:48):
I'm at plank Show, and everyone go follow us at
Fox Sports Radio. Well we're all in on week two
of the preseason next right here on Arnie Planko Fox
Sports Radio. You didn't comment on Ian Roddy's incredible photoshop
skills for the tweet for the show. I saw that.

Speaker 2 (58:04):
I saw getting a lot of comment on that on Twitter.
I saw that very well done. I hey, by the way,
you never got to Roman numeral thirteen yesterday and you're
not really talking about it today.

Speaker 3 (58:19):
Hold on here, look here ten.

Speaker 2 (58:22):
X I. I thanks.

Speaker 3 (58:25):
I got to go through your list. Here you see
me like page one Virgins British British Ambassador says, whatever
it takes, he wants the super Bowl in England.

Speaker 2 (58:36):
Whatever it's going to take.

Speaker 3 (58:38):
Cool, whatever wakes England, whatever it takes. I want to
listen to Milano as my girlfriend, whatever it takes, whatever
it takes. I want to be a billionaire, whatever it takes.
Of course, of course, the British ambassador wants the super
Bowl overseas. Of course, he does biggest money makers on

(59:00):
the planet.

Speaker 2 (59:01):
When we get to an eighteen game schedule, you watch
and see if every team's not forced to play one game,
Oh my.

Speaker 3 (59:08):
Gosh, will you let this go? We're not gonna have
quarterbacks that make that kind of money and are that
percentage of a salary cap where they're like, bro, let's
just take this week five game off. This is never
gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (59:21):
No, no, no, no no. I wasn't saying that. I was saying,
we're going to go ahead. If we're gonna have everybody
forced to play an overseas game, I can see one day,
well they'll say, okay, we could have maybe one every
seven years, we're gonna have a Super Bowl over in England.

Speaker 3 (59:37):
I just don't. I don't think that's gonna happen. Why
would you want to do that? What's the benefits for
the for the NFL?

Speaker 2 (59:45):
Just to grow, grow, to continue to grow the game.
That's why we play over there to begin.

Speaker 3 (59:48):
With, Right, how much more do we need to grow
the game?

Speaker 2 (59:52):
I don't know that. I mean, we're playing, we're doing
like that. How many overseas games do we have this year?

Speaker 4 (59:57):
Done?

Speaker 3 (59:57):
The bullload. Evan. We played in Brazil last year. We're
going back this year. I guess it was a hit.
We're going back to Mexico. Germany. They're building stadiums over there,
and the first events they're putting in there are NFL games,
which is crazy. Buddy of mine, ej Manuel went overseas
he goes every year with his wife's from Germany, and
so they went to Germany. It's like you'd be blown
away with how many NFL jerseys you see around here.

(01:00:20):
It's not and it's not just the teams that played here,
you know. It's not like it's just a bunch of
Jaguar fans. So I mean maybe, but I just my
whole thought is, why would you take one of the
great events in the United States and put it outside
of the United States whenever? I just I don't know
how much more you need to grow the game. I

(01:00:41):
don't know how. TV networks, Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:00:42):
We're doing that right now. We're taking one of like
you said, out of the top fifty rated TV shows,
forty eight of them are like NFL NFL games.

Speaker 3 (01:00:51):
Well, but again you're talking about the Super Bowl. Yeah,
there is a certain set they're not taking a playoff
game over there. They're taking a regular season game, which
ever of them, which is more than we've ever seen before.
But I don't know. Super Bowl. Come on, do you
really think the Super Bowl could end up overseas?

Speaker 2 (01:01:08):
Now?

Speaker 3 (01:01:09):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:01:09):
But maybe ask me in two three years from now.
Who knows how things will change. What could change in
two or three years. Money. That's the only thing that
could change it. If somehow money's involved and they could
make a boatload of money, the owners will go, well,
maybe once every seven years, we could do something like that,
because we're gonna get even richer, so let's go ahead
and do it. We'll sell our soul for it. That's

(01:01:31):
the only thing I could imagine at this point.

Speaker 3 (01:01:34):
I guess the great thing about whenever you have a
bunch of money, like all the NFL owners seem to have,
is it never feels like it's enough.

Speaker 2 (01:01:41):
It doesn't, right.

Speaker 3 (01:01:43):
I mean, you got that private investment getting involved in this.
It's just what are we doing? Anyway, I did see
that story. I didn't realize you were as fired up
about it as you are.

Speaker 2 (01:01:52):
No, I just because I think it's actually going to
happen within like the next maybe five to ten years,
I could say seven to ten. I think there's a
decent chance something like that could happen. But you you're
just like kind of dismissing it. You, I'm very dismissive
of it. Yeah, you don't think that's a possible.

Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
I can't. I will promise you that it will never happen.
I guarantee you that it will never happen. How's that
is that?

Speaker 2 (01:02:19):
Ten years ago?

Speaker 3 (01:02:20):
Is that what I was supposed to talk like on
sports radio? I promise you that, aren't you? I promise
you ten years ago?

Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
Years at all? I promise you We're not gonna have
like seven or eight overseas games in one season. How
many do we have this year? We have a whole
bunch this year's You know.

Speaker 3 (01:02:33):
You can google NFL International games and you would just
you would have that answer. You know, you don't have
to really go mad at thea get mad at our
producer that you claim that we don't have. But we
got quite a few overseas games this year. And I'm
not gonna lie to you. I'm here for him. We
got the we got the Vikings, Browns, Broncos and Jets

(01:02:54):
playing at Tottenham. We've got the Rams and the Jaguars
playing in Wimbley Stadium. Do we have a Mexico City
game this year? I don't think we do. Look, we
got Germany in Germany, Spain and Ireland. Yeah, the Germany
game is Atlanta, Indianapolis, Chiefs Chargers in Brazil. The Madrid

(01:03:14):
game is Washington Miami. The Dublin game is Minnesota Pittsburgh.
How many of I mentioned there quite a bit. The
Rams are gonna play in Melbourne next year. So yeah,
we got what six to seven games overseas so far
this year? Then seven?

Speaker 2 (01:03:26):
Thank you Mary. Yeah, but they can't have the Super
Bowl over you know, and that it can't happen. We'll
just play all these other games over there.

Speaker 3 (01:03:34):
I think you're onto it. Yeah, I get I'm with you.
Seven there's seven games here, so that means the Super
Bowl is going there soon.

Speaker 2 (01:03:40):
It just continues. It will just continue in the next
five years, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:03:44):
When we come back to the Fox Sports radio studios,
there is a lot of recaps from the NFL preseason games,
including one in Roman numeral number six, which I don't
even want to get to because it's Arnie changing his
mind again for the second time in as many days.

Speaker 2 (01:03:59):
More than that, Yeah, probably more than that.

Speaker 3 (01:04:01):
First man, Steve Seger has everything that's going on in
the world of sports. What's up, Steve?

Speaker 4 (01:04:05):
As for the seven international NFL games in the regular season,
the first one is free on YouTube from Brazil. All
the other ones are NFL Network West Coast six thirty am,
six thirty am, he said, Hawaii, that's three thirty am.

Speaker 3 (01:04:24):
But you mentioned the Vikings.

Speaker 4 (01:04:26):
They're going to be playing in Dublin and just stay
in Europe and then play in London the next weekend.

Speaker 3 (01:04:33):
I wonder why they're getting so many overseas.

Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
Games this year.

Speaker 4 (01:04:37):
Yeah, it's usually Jacksonville gets a couple, but yeah, it's
Minnesota's term.

Speaker 3 (01:04:41):
But yeah, I'm surprised there isn't a Mexico.

Speaker 4 (01:04:43):
I don't know if it has to do with the
fact that they've just remade the Mexico City Stadium and
they're getting ready to co host World Cup next summer,
or I don't know what the scheduling has to do
with it. We do know that the Super Bowl after
this season is at the forty nine Ers Stadium, and
in just over a year the Super Bowl will be
at the La Ram Stadium. And then after the twenty

(01:05:03):
twenty seven season it will be at Atlanta. But that
quote that you said, I would sit at attention and
pay attention if it was the Saudi Arabian ambassador, say
whatever it.

Speaker 3 (01:05:16):
Takes, we're gonna do.

Speaker 2 (01:05:19):
Because they had the big golf playoff today, Scottie Scheffler
won at fifth Tour title this year.

Speaker 4 (01:05:27):
This heads into the final thirty. The PGA's Tour Championship
starts Thursday at Atlanta. So it was a huge payout today.
It was three point six million dollars that Scheffler won. Today,
every live golf tournament winner gets four million dollars, So
it doesn't matter if you've heard of the golfer that
won the live golf at Indianapolis this weekend, which is

(01:05:48):
three rounds, by the way, not four. He got four
million dollars. And you did mention earlier that the University
of Tennessee today named Joey Aigilars at starting quarterbacks, So
essentially we've had a trade college football. Yeah, because they
had at quarterback Nico Iamalaiavo who's from southern California and
got out of Tennessee and went to UCLA where this

(01:06:10):
guy Aguilar was going to be. He had just transferred
in during the winter portal. One day after Nico says
I'm going to UCLA. Aguilar goes to Tennessee and he's
going to be starting there. We do have two two
at FL exhibitions on the schedule. The day game went
to well Nobody, New Orleans tie Jacksonville seventeen to seventeen.

(01:06:34):
The final mercifully no overtime. In preseason Spencer Ratler with
a late TD pass and two point conversion and they
should have a running clock on the game. At Chicago
tonight bears thirty eight. Nothing over whoever was suited up
for Buffalo. Caleb Williams started at quarterback for Chicago, played
two series, had one hundred and seven yards passing and
a touchdown. WNBA Indiana was down twenty one but still

(01:06:57):
won in overtime at Connecticut ninety nine ninety three. By
the way, Austin Dillon took the NASCAR race last night
at Richmond. If there's no new winner next weekend at Daytona,
Tyler Reddick and Alex Bowman could be transferring into the
playoffs on points. So we're ending the golf season here
this month and getting two Nascars postseason, just two races

(01:07:17):
left in the whole IndyCar season. They'll be next Sunday
at Milwaukee and then at Nashville after that on Fox
TV again. As for Major League Baseball, a game at Williamsport,
Pennsylvania tonight, the Mets beat the Mariners seven to three.
Cal Raley with his forty seventh home run of the season,
and Philadelphia did win earlier today eleven nine at Washington.

(01:07:39):
The Dodgers are two games up on the Padres in
the NL West. Completed the three game weekend sweep at
Dodger Stadium, beating the Padres five to four. LA's Mookie
Bets with a solo homer in the bottom of the eighth.
Milwaukee's fourteen game winning streak is over. Cincinnati got a
run in the ninth, running the tenth to beat him
in ten, three to two, Cubs four to three over

(01:07:59):
the Pirates. Baltimore won twelve nothing at Houston.

Speaker 3 (01:08:02):
Back to you, by the way, I'm watching the highlights.
Did the Mariners Steve have some problems with the lights
in the outfield or something? I mean, there was about
three or four misplayed balls in the outfield that looked
to be easy plays. It should have been made.

Speaker 4 (01:08:17):
They have had I think five six years in a row.
This there at the minor league ballpark. So my assumption
is there shouldn't be that sort of thing, But I can't.
Didn't see the nine innings watching the Fox at the
same time with the Bears.

Speaker 2 (01:08:31):
Did you guys see the bat was Andy Payees for
the Dodgers. Did you see his bat?

Speaker 3 (01:08:36):
Was that the pencil bat?

Speaker 4 (01:08:38):
Yeah, yes it was. This was player's weekend in Major
League Baseball, so you could paint your bats or cleats
or however you wished. For example, Freddy Freeman had three
different bats that he used, one for each of his kids' names.
Oh and yeah, Pa has bet looked like a number
two pencil.

Speaker 2 (01:08:56):
Yeah. It was hysterical and unfortunately.

Speaker 4 (01:09:00):
Eraser on top and one of those the pitch it
didn't hit the sweet spot. It hit more of the
eraser and didn't quite go out of the park.

Speaker 2 (01:09:08):
I loved it. I loved it.

Speaker 3 (01:09:09):
The pencil bad Who was all right? We're rolling on
a Sunday night into a Monday. It is hey, back
to school week. We started back to school with the
kids last week. Yeah, Thursday was the first day back,
the greatest day ever. College classes start at some point
next week. Camps are wrapping up. You heard Steve mention
the Joey Aguilar situation in the starting quarterback at Tennessee.

(01:09:32):
We're still waiting on starters at Ohio State to be named,
even though I think it's going to be Julian saying.
And it got me thinking about the NFL today. Do
we truly only have two quarterback battles going on? I
only bring it up because we know the Colts have one,
and we know currently that it appears the Saints have one,
though seems like Spencer Rattler hasn't.

Speaker 2 (01:09:52):
I think Rattler will be the starter. I think Richardson
will be the starter, So I don't really think there's
much left to decide nothing. That doesn't mean there's going
to be changes after a couple of games, two or
three games, but at least going into the first weekend,
I think that's what's gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (01:10:07):
Is there any chance, any chance that there's a battle
going on in New York? Is there a chance that
Jackson Dart could be doing just enough to maybe slide
ahead of Russell Wilson or no.

Speaker 2 (01:10:21):
There's no reason to go ahead and do that right now.
Why not? Well, because he's better, Well, he has looked good.
I'm not going to do real good. But there's no
reason to throw him into the fire like that. If
the Giants start off like an zero and three or something,
they have a murderous schedule, so if they get up
to a bad start, he'll have plenty of time to play.
There's no reason to throw him out there and you know,

(01:10:44):
get up to a bad start and then have to
replace him and then take his confidence away.

Speaker 3 (01:10:49):
So on Roman numeral six, tonight you have Miami, and
now you have them at ten and seven, and in
Mike McDaniel coaching his last year, which, by the way,
if they go ten and seven, he's probably not coaching
his last year.

Speaker 2 (01:11:03):
Yes, if he goes ten and seven loses in the
first round, I think they probably go ahead and move
on from him. But I now I'm just starting to
think about it. Maybe they're not as good as I
thought they were, but they're not as bad as going
eight to nine or what was there over and they're
now seven and a half. I don't think they're as
bad as people were making him out there, Like I

(01:11:24):
told you now our number one. We love Hendrickson. I
can't believe you know, how come all the crappy teams
want him, like Carolina, the Browns, the Coles, you know,
teams like that. Why wouldn't some of the big teams
step up and pay this guy the money he deserves.
I'd love Miami to go ahead and get him, But
at ten and seven, I think he'd give us a

(01:11:46):
legitimate shot get into the playoffs and see what happens.
I maybe we're somewhere in the middle of that twelve
win team and that eight win team right there.

Speaker 3 (01:11:55):
What has you fascinated with Trey Hendrickson.

Speaker 2 (01:11:58):
I want some pressure on the quarterback, is what I want.

Speaker 3 (01:12:01):
But I mean, you're not doing anything in the preseason.
They're not stunting, they're not blitzing, they're not doing anything
too crazy right now.

Speaker 2 (01:12:08):
And I mean you.

Speaker 3 (01:12:10):
Got a couple pretty good edge guys to begin with.
I mean, it's just I'm not saying he's not, but
it just it seems like you're kind of getting flavor
of the wiki here. You spent your first round pick
on an edge rusher.

Speaker 2 (01:12:24):
You know, when you tell me there's a good movie,
I go right out and see the movie. I don't go, well,
you know, let's wait and see what other people have.

Speaker 3 (01:12:31):
This analogy doesn't fit here at all. I I appreciate
the attempt, but going to try to trade for an
edge rusher is not the same as Well, I like
a movie, so I'm gonna go see a movie.

Speaker 2 (01:12:42):
What would you have to give up to get him too,
That's what I wonder.

Speaker 3 (01:12:45):
Well, I'm sure it wouldn't be anything less than a
fourth or third to go get him. I mean, it's
not like a lot more than that. He's thirty years old.
He's thirty years old. He's coming off one of his best,
one of his better seasons. He's been deemed up. You know,
it's I don't I don't necessarily know if I'm gonna
go out there and break the bank for him. I mean,

(01:13:06):
this is a dude. Don't get me wrong. The stats
are amazing as a four time Pro bowler. But I mean,
if I'm if I'm wanting to get him, he's if
I'm going to give up something to get him. He's
the missing piece to a Super Bowl run? Is Trey
Hendrickson the missing piece to a Dolphins Super Bowl run?

Speaker 2 (01:13:21):
It could be. Okay, after I told you that the
Buffalo Bill's had problems, and I told you that two
weeks ago before the start of the preseason, and you
laughed at me.

Speaker 3 (01:13:31):
Yeah, I still think that you trying to base anything
the Bills have done on the preseason into a magnification.

Speaker 2 (01:13:37):
Well, the shows today, what do you ever to say,
come back to me. I want you at the box scoring.

Speaker 3 (01:13:43):
Nobody that played that's gonna play in their opening weekend
game played. IFO are like, oh, they're in trouble, man,
come on, it doesn't take that much to dig into it.
I love always mad because Paul's a fan that gets
mad at everything.

Speaker 2 (01:13:55):
But by the way, we talk about the preseason games
and then we say, but it really doesn't matter when
talking about the preseason games.

Speaker 3 (01:14:03):
When none of their players are playing. If the players
are out there playing and that happens, then yeah, let's
have a conversation. What was hey, what was Josh allen
stat line today?

Speaker 2 (01:14:11):
Honey?

Speaker 3 (01:14:12):
Can you look that up real quick? Did he play
today for the Bills?

Speaker 2 (01:14:16):
By the way, our Josh, how I was.

Speaker 3 (01:14:18):
Asking a question, did he play today for the Bills?

Speaker 2 (01:14:20):
No? Okay, our Josh Allen on Twitter, though, has taken
you to task on that? We've gotten a lot of
tweets on that Super Bowl overseas topic.

Speaker 3 (01:14:31):
What what did he take me to task on?

Speaker 2 (01:14:33):
Uh? He said, I don't. I don't know. Plank Roger
said back in February h that international NFL expansion could
lead to an overseas Super Bowl. It's all about the money.
What if some country offers a billions to host it?
Can they do that? So?

Speaker 3 (01:14:49):
Well, yeah they can. We've seen it happen with other sports.
It's in a little place called Saudi Arabia. Yeah, it's
not happening in England, don't said.

Speaker 2 (01:14:58):
I'm more likely to enjoy surgery in the anesthesia. Then
for the Super Bowl to go international, the uproar from
American NFL fans would be enormous if this happens, That's right.
And then josh One, though, would I go overseas for
a Super Bowl if the Dolphins were in it?

Speaker 3 (01:15:16):
It's so funny. You get mad when I try to
retweets because you'll just start talking about your own thing,
and then you find one that you think agrees with you,
and let's stick with it, and then you just stick
with it. You just go on, Arnie, I'm along for
the right tonight. Ah, the ones that agree with me.
I like to read first. Yeah, you read the one
and then you immediately read one that didn't. So I mean,
I just don't think you're gonna see the Super Bowl

(01:15:37):
go international. All right? When we come back, Steve de
Sager comes rolling in for the segment next right here
on Fox Sports Radio. All right, don't forget With the
iHeartRadio app, you can stream us wherever you happen to be.

Speaker 4 (01:16:09):
What's going on, Steve de Seger, Well, we were talking
about crazy money in sports, and golf has some of that.
But you know, the PGA season ends with the Tour
Championship in Atlanta that starts Thursday. The first place check
next Sunday is ten million dollars. Scottie Scheffler has a
chance to become the first repeat FedEx Cup champ since
the series began in two thousand and seven, but he's

(01:16:31):
now leading the thirty players remaining to advance to the
finale in Georgia. He won in Maryland today, his fifth
tour title this year. Did you see the clip of
the guys?

Speaker 2 (01:16:41):
I had a nickel for every time I saw that
clipbo Twitter, I'd have two billion dollars.

Speaker 4 (01:16:49):
Robert McIntyre. I will, unlike other golfers, give him points
for actually standing up in front of the media after
finishing second today, and he did say at one point
on a I would just like to leave here and
go destroy my clubs. He lost by two strokes after
shooting a final round seventy three today. This is the

(01:17:09):
guy who finished up yesterday hitting a key putt and
then shushed the crowd around him, and then gagged in
the final round today at the same place. At one
point he was up by four strokes and in a
span of five holes, Scottie Scheffer completely erased that and
went on to win. So yeah, ten million dollars first

(01:17:31):
prize next Sunday. Meanwhile, the individual stuff on the LIV
Golf Tour ended today. John Ram lost in a playoff
today in Indianapolis. The guy shot a sixty today to
tie things and get into a playoff against Sebastian Munyos,
a guy who shot a first round fifty nine there
in Indianapolis this weekend a fifty nine despite a double

(01:17:54):
bogie in his round out. Munyos wound up winning. But
Rom defends season points title. You get money for that,
you know. So despite not winning a single tournament this year,
he lost in a playoff last week, lost in a
playoff today, was very good throughout the year and kept
piling up points. What do you get for winning the
season points title in golf? The answer is eighteen million dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:18:19):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (01:18:20):
There are only thirteen events on the Live Golf Tour.
None of them are four rounds of golf. They're all
just three eighteen million dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:18:30):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (01:18:31):
Show me the money, my friends, show me the money.

Speaker 3 (01:18:33):
You think quarterbacks are overpaid?

Speaker 4 (01:18:35):
The Live Golf season will end with next weekend's Team
Championship in Michigan, and I must say the WNBA season
will be ending September ninth. Caitlin Clark of Indiana has
missed over a month with a groin injury. Her coach
said today. Yeah, that's the hope. We hope that she
comes back before the season ends.

Speaker 2 (01:18:55):
Thank you for that, Thank you all right.

Speaker 4 (01:18:57):
Indiana was down twenty one today, came back to win
in overtime.

Speaker 2 (01:19:00):
At it got hurt today.

Speaker 4 (01:19:02):
Yes, Sophie Cunningham limped off as well. The opponent, Connecticut,
by the way, is the team that's being sold sixth.

Speaker 3 (01:19:08):
By the way, the only reason Arny knows that is
because somebody tweeted and asked why we haven't mentioned Sophie
Cunningham's injury.

Speaker 2 (01:19:14):
No, I knew that. I saw it earlier on Twitter.

Speaker 3 (01:19:16):
I saw you the.

Speaker 4 (01:19:21):
Amount of players that can be named by anybody in
the w NBA. I bet half of the ones that
could be named by a large group of general sports
fans are not playing in the w NBA right now.
Caitlin Clark included you mentioned cunningham injury. New York's Brianna
Stewart isn't due to return till late August bone bruis
in her knee, All Star and Afista Collier Minnesota missing

(01:19:43):
at least a couple of weeks. Sprained ankle, Angel Rey
Chicago still out In the past month, She's missed most
of her team's games with a bad back. And we're
getting toward football season here people. September fourth. The NFL
starts September ninth, the w NBA regular season ends. I
had read that the WNBA announced our finals best of

(01:20:04):
seven is going to start, and I said, wait a minute,
that date, that that's the first weekend of the baseball
playoffs in.

Speaker 2 (01:20:11):
That fun by all means sure number one hundred.

Speaker 4 (01:20:15):
Expand your season and go into September when you can
truly be invisible. Very very good. It's I repeat, it's
kind of like with all the college football expansion talk
this weekend, let's have more games in December.

Speaker 3 (01:20:28):
What opposite the NFL on weekends? What are you thinking about?

Speaker 2 (01:20:32):
Tonight?

Speaker 4 (01:20:33):
We had the Major League game in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, and yes,
the Mets won seven to three over Seattle. But cal
Raley hit his forty seventh homer. The record for most
home runs by a catcher in a season is forty
eight by Salvador Perez. A few years ago, this was
forty seven by cal Rawley. He's about to get to that.

Speaker 3 (01:20:53):
Back to you pretty awesome, all right? When we come
back to the Fox Sports Radio Studios. What we learned
from week two. We still have one more game to
go in the preseason. We're counting down to the first
weekend of the college football season and Arnie's picks coming
up next as we roll into the Power Hour, Arnie
Plank right here on Fox Sports Radio. You're listening to

(01:21:14):
Fox Sports Radio Radio Final Hour, Power Hour before Big
Ben takes over here on Fox Sports Radio. You're doing
anything this week? Are you selling your house? Are you
taking in any sporting events?

Speaker 2 (01:21:27):
Still trying to sell the house that's been on the
market that like seven or eight days, so you know,
just kind of early now that we've got it back
on there.

Speaker 3 (01:21:36):
Have settled in at home now, where you're kind of
cool if you do get to stay there by yourself
for a while.

Speaker 2 (01:21:41):
Oh yeah, my wife came up and she made lasagna
and all this other stuff for a whole bunch of
stuff from Costco. So I'm ready to live like a Bacheler.
I'm good to go, man, good as a trophy husband.
You're good to go. I'm good to go, man. I'm like,
what do I got to do tomorrow? Nothing? I don't
get anything to do tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (01:21:59):
About that, Well, congratulations I'm what's wrong with you?

Speaker 2 (01:22:04):
What's wrong with your?

Speaker 9 (01:22:05):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:22:05):
I just it's back to school week, so I've got
to go talk to teachers, and you got to go
meet with teachers. You gotta make small talk with other
parents that you don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:22:12):
It's just you know, yeah, I'm not good with small
talk with other parents and teachers and all that.

Speaker 3 (01:22:17):
Now I am, I'm good at it. I just don't
want to do it. It's like I don't want to
do that at least.

Speaker 2 (01:22:23):
By the way, I'm gonna miss Laker basketball next year? Okay,
what I'm gonna miss Laker basketball next year?

Speaker 3 (01:22:32):
You're gonna miss Laker basketball somehow your schedule is not
going to allow you to see the Lakers whenever we're
still months away from the season.

Speaker 2 (01:22:42):
What what because in Roman numeral number fifteen or they
said that the NBC was going to air coast to
coast and the second game of the double header wouldn't
start to eleven o'clock eastern, which is the West Coast cape. Well,
that takes out the whole East Coast eleven o'clock eastern.
You want me to stay up till what one thirty

(01:23:04):
in the morning watching a regular season NBA game. That's
not going to happen, even if it is the Lakers.
I'm not staying up till one thirty in the morning. Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:23:12):
I don't think it's catered towards you. Wow, I'm just
I mean, honestly, right, Why would.

Speaker 2 (01:23:17):
You alienate the entire East Coast when there's probably more
basketball fans in the East Coast than the West Coast
because you can because the West Coast misses out on
the early games because they're still working and doing things.

Speaker 3 (01:23:34):
And now NBC or which is it on Peacock right,
which the late games in the West Coast?

Speaker 2 (01:23:39):
I think the NBC.

Speaker 3 (01:23:40):
Yeah, yeah, so they're just giving you a little bit
of a different option there that you haven't had before.

Speaker 2 (01:23:45):
That's late, though I don't remember ever being that late.

Speaker 3 (01:23:49):
There's college football games to kick off that late in
the Pac twelve.

Speaker 2 (01:23:52):
That's the one time. Yeah, but that's on Saturday. That's
a whole different thing.

Speaker 3 (01:23:56):
Though you just said you don't remember a game kicking
off or tipping off that late. It happens all I'm
at the NBA.

Speaker 2 (01:24:03):
I me at the NBA. It happens a lot at
eleven o'clock Eastern but.

Speaker 3 (01:24:08):
Yes, yes, we have ten. We have nine o'clock, ten
o'clock tip Central time all the time around here. Man,
isn't it okay for the West coast to have?

Speaker 9 (01:24:17):
So?

Speaker 3 (01:24:17):
Does everything have to fit, Arnie, span your schedule in
order for it to be good?

Speaker 2 (01:24:21):
Oh, you want to ask the people on the East coast?
Do they think that's a little bit too late for the.

Speaker 3 (01:24:25):
How many people on the East Coast are staying up
for the Lakers games?

Speaker 2 (01:24:28):
Anyway?

Speaker 3 (01:24:28):
What do those numbers look like? To begin with? Do
we need to move tip off to five o'clock Pacific
time to go ahead and make everyone on the East
coast happy? Get out of here with your crappy ass
time zone.

Speaker 2 (01:24:39):
It goes.

Speaker 3 (01:24:39):
It makes no sense. It's dark at four o'clock in
the afternoon.

Speaker 2 (01:24:42):
It's stupid.

Speaker 3 (01:24:43):
Move more towards the heartland, towards the west zone. Blows.

Speaker 2 (01:24:49):
What time is it right now, Arnie?

Speaker 3 (01:24:50):
For you, it's one in the morning. Oh, it's midnight here,
it's ten o'clock on the West coast, Eastern time zone.
We're all supposed to bout out to the mighty Eastern
time zone one one time. Finally, to your West coast
gets a little bit of a break and you're here
crying about.

Speaker 2 (01:25:06):
The only time I get you, guys is when we
play those games overseas in football, and it's six thirty
on the West coast, nine thirty on the East coast.

Speaker 3 (01:25:14):
Yeah, but I mean again, I don't think you're in
a situation right now where that many people are losing
their minds over it.

Speaker 2 (01:25:21):
No, yeah, I would. I mean I would love to
stay up that way. But that's that's awfully way to
what do.

Speaker 3 (01:25:27):
You have to do the next day? You're a trophy husband.

Speaker 2 (01:25:32):
That's true. I'm sure I've got something going on.

Speaker 3 (01:25:34):
Of all the people that can complain about their schedules, like, gosh,
I can't stand you have no reason to wake up
early none.

Speaker 2 (01:25:42):
I do get a little tired, though you don't. Maybe
you have to not during the day. You're like Tommy,
Bait's what you are. It's like you're like, you're like
what was his name? And you Tommy, You're like you're
like freaking Tommy.

Speaker 3 (01:25:53):
Uh So that's what you took away from the NBA
schedule this year. How there's gonna be some late tips
on the East coast.

Speaker 2 (01:25:59):
Yeah, that bothered me. Actually, I'm like that come on
eleven o'clock that I'm gonna slap in the face. That
is to the East Coast people. Well, there's more NBA
fans out here.

Speaker 3 (01:26:09):
Where's the stats? Prove that there's more NBA fans there?

Speaker 2 (01:26:13):
Pull up the stats that proved me wrong, which you can,
so I'll go with it. You have to it. You
can't prove me wrong, So there you go.

Speaker 3 (01:26:21):
You can't prove yourself right. We could do this. I
could do this for the next fifty four minutes on
the show, and we could just chase each other's tail.
You're just towing something as like there's more basketball fans here. Okay, great,
there's more baseball fans too, but they're not gonna magically
stop starting games later for West Coast teams. How arrogant
is that?

Speaker 2 (01:26:40):
Oh wow, I just think there's what bigger cities here
west east of the missions.

Speaker 3 (01:26:44):
Yeah, there's no bigger cities in Los Angeles out there.
Oh here we go get all defensive big no big
cities out there in the east. In the West. So hope, hope,
hopefully y'all to come out here West and try to
take all our lane and our gold. I mean, my gosh, Arnie,
have you ever been west of the Mississippi before? Things
are going pretty well over there.

Speaker 2 (01:27:04):
Things are growing that things are pretty good over there.

Speaker 3 (01:27:09):
All right, let me get some of these tweets out
here at Stink and Genius one. I'm at Plank Show.
Everyone can follow us at Fox Sports Radio. You had
a little bit of support here for your overseas super
Bowl idea. Yeah, Marke and Minnesota says, consider this. The
NFL makes most of their money for the Super Bowl
via TV revenue, which comes wherever the game is played.

(01:27:31):
And where are the l largest stadiums in the world
in order to sell as many tickets as possible, Well,
didn't put them in college football stadiums. If you're talking
about the largest stadiums in the world, I mean one
hundred thousand seats at Michigan, one hundred thousand seats at Tennessee.

Speaker 2 (01:27:46):
I don't think the ticket prices make much of a difference,
but I do agree with them with the TV revenue.
Matter of fact, I was going to bring up a
point that somebody already sent on in our buddy Josh Allen,
I don't care where the Super Bowl is because I
can't afford to go. It's hosted every year in my
living room with food and beer that you know. Somebody

(01:28:08):
said there'd be a backlash of people getting upset. But
it's come to the point now where the average fan
is priced out of the super Bowl anyway. So does
it really make a difference where it is When it's
all said, none.

Speaker 3 (01:28:20):
I think so, don't. I mean, you're saying you don't
think it matters where the super Bowl is played.

Speaker 2 (01:28:26):
No, I just met for the average fan the go
because they're so priced out of it anyway that you
know that they're not going to go to the game
no matter words played.

Speaker 3 (01:28:34):
That's probably true. I mean I sit here so many
times and say, I don't know how you most of
you people do this. I mean, it's just it seems
shocking to me that you're able to spin what it
takes to go and enjoying NFL game. Oh my gosh. Yeah.
A couple of college football takes. Rick Flair has checked
in the new the nca New College Football Playoffs s

(01:28:56):
game will flop in a few years. And why does
Arnie sound like he's high? Are you fight night, Arnie?

Speaker 2 (01:29:04):
Wow? I don't see that one word. Are you making
this one up? Wheres that one at?

Speaker 3 (01:29:09):
Oh? He only sent it to me, of course, of course,
Von Wagner Stan, Yeah, I didn't see that one. I
don't think it's gonna flop in a few years. I
think they're gonna be constantly evolving it. They're gonna do
whatever TV tells him to do.

Speaker 2 (01:29:22):
No, they won't. They won't flop. Look as long as
the money's coming on in what difference does it make
you know? Twenty four, twenty eight, that's not going to
What do you mean by flop?

Speaker 3 (01:29:31):
Like nobody's going to watch it?

Speaker 2 (01:29:32):
No, that's not true.

Speaker 3 (01:29:33):
No, I think maybe just the idea that they won't
be able. Not everyone's gonna be able to get along.
They'll find a way to fight and ruin it. Mister
nobody adds. The playoff expansion proposal, besides being a crass
attempt to pad the SEC in the Big Ten, would
also cost conferences who use the championship games to make money.
I saw people opposed to it. It's an awful idea.

(01:29:55):
They'd still find an excuse to put an SEC team
in over Florida State anyway. Are you gonna bet you're
a big championship guy? Conference championship, guy, aren't you not
as much in the playoff era?

Speaker 2 (01:30:11):
I mean, then it doesn't bother you anymore, not.

Speaker 3 (01:30:13):
Not as much. I mean, Georgia and Texas were playing
in the SEC title game last year, we knew they
were both getting in the playoffs. Who was it Penn
State and who was in the Big Ten champion Penn
State in Indiana?

Speaker 2 (01:30:27):
Is that right?

Speaker 5 (01:30:28):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:30:28):
Penn State in Oregon. I'm sorry. Penn State and Oregon
played in the Big Ten championship game last year. Both
of them were in right. The ACC title game was
really the only surprise, and it took Clemson winning that
game to get in as a three loss team in
the playoffs. So I don't know, man. It's if we're
gonna get to that big number that we talked about

(01:30:50):
earlier twenty eight, which I don't think we will, then
definitely the conference championship weekend is a thing of the past.
But even if we get to sixteen, Arnie, I know
that that's not a spanding by a week. It's you know,
just you would have more teams playing in that first
week of the playoffs. Even if that's the case, I
don't know how you can continue to have the conference
championship game.

Speaker 2 (01:31:09):
You're gonna add like four weeks to the season if
you do something like this, aren't you.

Speaker 3 (01:31:14):
No, no, no, no more than that.

Speaker 2 (01:31:15):
I mean four weeks.

Speaker 3 (01:31:18):
I know you're being facetious, but I think you would
still have a twelve game schedule. You would have to.
I mean, it's you've got deliverables now to TV. You
can't just suddenly say yeah, we're gonna cut back games
yet their playoff games.

Speaker 2 (01:31:30):
We're cut short there. That's what's gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (01:31:33):
Let's see, there's a couple of other here that I
really liked. Eric wrightes. Wait a minute, Arnie, you want
the fake mustache and trench coat? Why not the panel
van as well? Thanks for the winners last weekend. Yeah
you think you actually gave him winners.

Speaker 2 (01:31:51):
But that's okay. We're gonna start fresh with the college
football winners because you know, I am the king of
college football. That's what people really come for all listen,
just ask you.

Speaker 3 (01:32:00):
You'll tell him in college was content not caring about
the preseason. But now I have cause because my Packers
signed fellow Canadian undrafted free agent rookie quarterback Tyler Elgerzma.
I don't think I've seen him get in the game yet.
Played at Wilfred Laurier Laurier University in Ontario and has

(01:32:22):
a legit chance to be quarterback three, So that team
he's my quarterback. Your wreck team beat.

Speaker 2 (01:32:32):
Wilfred Laurier Laurel Laurier University.

Speaker 3 (01:32:36):
Yeah, exactly, griddles mcblackout. MLB keeps coming up with these
ideas that no one wants anything to avoid addressing the
real issue of half their league not fielding competitive teams.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
There's some bad teams out there. He's right about that.

Speaker 3 (01:32:56):
Here's what's weird about some of the bad teams, Like
the Orioles are a bad team, but they're pretty good.

Speaker 2 (01:33:03):
Last year they were good to see. But now it
goes with twins. It goes back to where I said,
if you realigned the divisions and made it regionally, where
people were excited and talked about it, Like I said,
in New York, they'd beget think about that Yankees in
the Mets of the same division, the Phillies Boston right

(01:33:24):
down the road. I mean, really, it's that's what it
would say. Thing Dodgers, Angels, San Diego, San Francisco, Las Vegas.
It's you know, it's all regionalized. That's what they're gonna
have to do. I've always been like that.

Speaker 3 (01:33:38):
As a Dodger fan. I don't want anything to do
with the with the Angels anymore.

Speaker 2 (01:33:44):
Holy smokes.

Speaker 3 (01:33:45):
I mean, my gosh to get swept by the Angels
like the Dodgers did, but good bounce back, good bounce
back and sweeping that series in the padres. Can't wait
for those two teams to go at it next week, JV. Right,
isn't that the Bills fan? Ravens Bill's Week one would
be a great anniversary gift. Plus, you could call into

(01:34:06):
the show after the Gancer recap it and over exaggerate.

Speaker 2 (01:34:10):
Yeah, you know, I guess I could take her to
a sporting gains. She's going to the US Open, I
believe next WEEKND with her sister. Her sister gets like
all the good tickets Seinfeld, Google Dolls, US Open, this staff,
the other God, they're living the life down there.

Speaker 3 (01:34:28):
How does the man who runs Fox Sports Radio not
have access to all these tickets?

Speaker 2 (01:34:32):
That's true. I don't understand what's going on here.

Speaker 3 (01:34:36):
One more, Joe Judges Burner writes, is Sharon Moore still crying.
I'm just wondering because we all saw him cry like
a baby on national TV over a poor old cheating
Jimmy and now we know for a fact Sharon Moore
is a liar and a cheat. So will he cry
this year plus five thousand? Yes, minus fifty thousand.

Speaker 2 (01:34:57):
No, He's crying tears of joy because he saw what
the going to be and he's happy with it.

Speaker 3 (01:35:02):
I've never seen a suspension play out where a guy
was suspended and then all of a sudden they added
a game to the suspension and they said, oh, you
can serve it next year. Have you ever heard of
that before?

Speaker 2 (01:35:15):
And make sure you can maybe add a team before
the team that you play. So it's like a junior
college or something.

Speaker 3 (01:35:21):
It's Western Michigan.

Speaker 2 (01:35:22):
Yeah, yeah, I know you said that. Yeah, they're playing
in Germany.

Speaker 3 (01:35:25):
As a matter of fact, for some reason, they're playing
Western Michigan in Germany next year. Michigan is I don't
I don't get it.

Speaker 2 (01:35:30):
And because they weren't close enough to play, but.

Speaker 3 (01:35:33):
I guess I guess they could just drive down the
street to play.

Speaker 2 (01:35:36):
Yeah, I forget about that.

Speaker 3 (01:35:37):
Let's go to Germany and play Sean McDermott has this
defense ready to roll over and die early this year,
writes Paul. Usually he waits until January.

Speaker 2 (01:35:47):
I told you there's something bad about the Buffalo Bills.
People are starting to realize that. I told you this
a couple of weeks ago when you started the Berety
going what what do wecause you saw because we saw
something in one practice where somebody put it on.

Speaker 3 (01:36:00):
What do I go?

Speaker 2 (01:36:00):
You watch and see this could be started the demise
of the Buffalo Bills.

Speaker 3 (01:36:05):
By the way, I want to make this point, Arnie
had this same bit for ten straight years with the Patriots.
It finally hit I think in your thirteen when everything
started to fall for the Patriots. That's right, And.

Speaker 2 (01:36:17):
Then I'm not on that Patriot bandwagon.

Speaker 3 (01:36:19):
Ward.

Speaker 2 (01:36:19):
People are like, hey, what on Drake May. I'm all
aboard on Drake May. I think it was you from
men Willard talking about that today. I'm all aboard on
Drake May. Why you for him?

Speaker 3 (01:36:31):
Why do you have every single one of our hosts
sounding the same way? I don't like the impersonation game
is not as strong as it was not strong.

Speaker 2 (01:36:39):
It's not strong anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:36:40):
I mean, I just I don't understand your disdain here
for the Bills. Josh Allen has a stepped on the
field in the preseason game yet, I mean there's scrubs
everywhere for him right now. Sean McDermott isn't playing anyone.
They got to be thirty one to seven last year
in the first preseason came. I mean, I'm sorry, im sorry,
thirty three to six. Excuse me there? You get me

(01:37:01):
by the Bears last year and now you're like, oh gosh,
what's wrong with them? They're terrible. I think the BA
I think the Bills are gonna be okay. I think
you're trying to build up some sort of traction in
that division for your Dolphins, which you just know isn't
coming well.

Speaker 2 (01:37:15):
You see what the one thing about the Dophins, though
they're a schedule, like their first six games so easy.

Speaker 3 (01:37:22):
In your minds.

Speaker 2 (01:37:23):
I told you about the no Colts Patriots.

Speaker 3 (01:37:25):
Again, we went through this with the every single show
we've done together, and they're not the easy schedule.

Speaker 2 (01:37:31):
Jets and the Panthers and the Chargers and the Browns
and the Falcons. I mean, how many of those teams
made the playoffs?

Speaker 3 (01:37:39):
Zero? I mean Broncos did.

Speaker 2 (01:37:42):
Yeah, well, okay, forget about that. But it's a very
easy schedule. We'll probably end up being like six and
two after the first eight.

Speaker 3 (01:37:50):
Well, if you're six and two after the first eight,
you'll be in great shape. But we've already pointed out
like every single time you talk about an easy schedule. Yeah,
it looks easy, but.

Speaker 2 (01:38:00):
I see saying that I only see one loss through
our first three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen,
fourteen fifty. What we've may go sixteen to one. Damn,
I was wrong again. Forget about ten and seven. We're
going sixty to one. Let's go.

Speaker 3 (01:38:24):
I just want to quit. I mean, I really, Scott,
there's other shifts. I'm an early morning guy, man, I
work well with others. I don't think I can do this.

Speaker 2 (01:38:31):
We'll get down schedule, Tubby, I'm wrong, Geez. I tried
to go down to the figure. I'm like, do we
play every game at home? It seems like, oh my goodness, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:38:41):
I mean the Dolphins. I don't understand why they're over
under numbers so low Vegas Xen and one. Here we go,
all right, when we come back to these by an
hour from now, he'll be check.

Speaker 2 (01:38:53):
No, No, I mean, I get every time I look
at the schedule and I'm like, Okay, we'll lose the
Buffalo in week three on the road, and then well,
we won't lose to the Jets of the Panthers or
the Charges at home or at Cleveland. Atlanta could be off. Okay,
maybe I'll give a loss there, but then home home, home,
home home home. I mean, Jaez, we don't have a

(01:39:16):
tough game like the rest of the year. Let's go
all right.

Speaker 3 (01:39:22):
When we come back to the Fox Sports Radio studios,
a couple other numbers to check off on the Roman
numeral rundown, final update from the Sagas and Arnie's picks
coming up right here on Fox Sports Radio. All right,
let's hit a couple of Roman numerals here. It's aren't

Just search Fox Sports Radio wherever you get your podcast

Speaker 2 (01:40:02):
Should we do the YouTube thing? Should we do that?

Speaker 3 (01:40:04):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:40:04):
I see a lot more people are doing that.

Speaker 3 (01:40:07):
I mean, sure, however you want to facilitate it.

Speaker 2 (01:40:11):
Game on. But then I gotta go ahead, and I
have to wear a shirt when I do this show.

Speaker 3 (01:40:16):
If your shirtless, that might not be a bad idea.
But I mean, I don't know. You might be ripped.
I haven't seen any videos from the rec League. If
you're looking good already.

Speaker 2 (01:40:24):
Wait today I would oh for six, I played the
whole game today.

Speaker 3 (01:40:27):
Oh you got six shots up?

Speaker 2 (01:40:29):
Yeah? I played the whole game. Is we only had
four people and we had to pick up somebody? Yeah,
oh for six. I just couldn't hit a shot today.
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:40:38):
It happens. Well, I mean it happens. You had to
get your uh you were getting all ready for tonight's
mental breakdown on the Dolphins. I mean, I don't know
which direction you're ever going to go with this.

Speaker 2 (01:40:47):
I feel now, I feel good about it all over again.
When I go look at that schedule, it's like, you know,
it's like what you know, you're breaking with your old girlfriend,
but you see her like after like a month, and
you're like, oh, she's looking good a man, and all
of a sudden you're falling back in love all over
again with her. It's kind of like with the Dolphins.
When I look at the schedule, I'm like, man, look

(01:41:07):
how easy that schedule is. Oh that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:41:10):
What if they start out ohing one?

Speaker 2 (01:41:13):
No, that's not happening. I could promise you that, Chris
DJ Infamous, I will promise you after the first five games.
You can't promise me anything will least be forty We
nigged on a promise that you have from last week
that the Culture going to be the worst team in
the NFL. So I promising after five games they are
going to be four and one, and then throw in

(01:41:35):
the next five one, two, three, four, five, and they'll
probably be about eight and two. That's not bad.

Speaker 3 (01:41:44):
So you've already went from sixteen and one to eight
and two in the span of a segment.

Speaker 2 (01:41:48):
I'm trying to be appeasing here, please, you know, just
giving you that extra loss?

Speaker 3 (01:41:53):
Uh the missing link rights? Does Fox Sports Radio pay
for your therapists and the rest of the staff? Therapist
after listening to on every Sunday with his Dolphins stakes.
They should. Ah, I'm traumatized. I mean literally, it's almost
as if you're just trying to rage beatas. And I
use the term right mcculately used there, Chris rage betos

(01:42:15):
every single weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:42:16):
You just change your mind.

Speaker 3 (01:42:19):
Ravens two games against the Bills, Chargers, Falcons, Commanders, Steelers, Bengals,
and Bucks.

Speaker 2 (01:42:26):
Only one loss. Come on, Arnie, I gave one loss
to Buffalo. I gave it one right there.

Speaker 3 (01:42:32):
So they beat the Ravens.

Speaker 2 (01:42:34):
And as a matter of fact, the Chargers are at home.
I believe in the Ravens are at home.

Speaker 3 (01:42:38):
Dolphins undefeated at home.

Speaker 2 (01:42:41):
Well, they're pretty tough at home.

Speaker 3 (01:42:43):
Kindra who is definitely not a girl, right. It sounds
like Ernie had a few margaritas before he came on
the air tonight.

Speaker 2 (01:42:50):
He did pretty good.

Speaker 3 (01:42:51):
And then Edie adds, I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:42:53):
Like salt around the glass. Though it's got it's got
to be sugar.

Speaker 3 (01:42:56):
Oh. Two other things, Eddie adds, if the Angels played
like they'd do against the Dodgers all the time, they'd
be saying fear the Halo. Oh they were so good
against the Dodgers and so bad against everyone else, and
then Josh Wright, sorry, Arnie per Jet, Chatt Gpt the
Western US watches the most NBA games. It's according to

(01:43:21):
chat Gpt.

Speaker 2 (01:43:22):
Man, I can't believe that consider you even said because
of the only games are you know, not conducive for
the West coast viewers.

Speaker 3 (01:43:32):
I just think that they have a window that they're
trying to appease a faction of the fan base that
never gets taken care of because we all have to
bow and curtsey to the Eastern time zone. Because you
guys cry if you have to stay up a little.

Speaker 2 (01:43:43):
Bit, cry about the super Bowl being at three o'clock
or six o'clock at night, six o'clock.

Speaker 3 (01:43:49):
At night, and you would complain about it.

Speaker 2 (01:43:52):
Good moving up a couple hours. You want the super
Bowl at four East Coast time would be nice?

Speaker 3 (01:43:59):
No, it wouldn't stop. You don't want the super Bowl?

Speaker 2 (01:44:01):
Oh, you're right, let's go ahead. We need to have
all those pregames. I forgot about that.

Speaker 3 (01:44:05):
Well, I mean, why are you trying to implode what
we do?

Speaker 2 (01:44:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:44:10):
We And by the way, anymore, the pregame that we
used to joke about with the Super Bowl's like man
I can't wait for the is pretty much the pregame
we do every Sunday for the NFL and every Saturday
for college football. It's pretty much just the same thing anymore.
All Right, we got we gotta get to saga in
here for one final update what we learned in week
two coming up next. But first, what's trending with Steve
to Sega? What's going on?

Speaker 4 (01:44:31):
Steve talking about late night football? On that first big
college football weekend at the end of August. The Arizona
game is at ten thirty at night.

Speaker 2 (01:44:41):
Why that's not the first weekend though, That's will be
the second weekend. But I don't want to start fighting.

Speaker 4 (01:44:46):
On Actually I said the first big weekend. But as
Chris and I have proven pretty much weekly, you don't
listen to your own.

Speaker 3 (01:44:52):
No, I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:44:52):
I don't listen.

Speaker 4 (01:44:53):
There will be a Fox game at eleven PM Eastern
kickoff from the Rose Bowl that night, UCLA hosting you
starting so of course it'll be more like eleven oh
five eleven ten starting Game two. At that point, we
had a Fox TV NFL exhibition from Chicago tonight, Bears
thirty eight nothing over Buffalo as the Bills backups on

(01:45:14):
third down conversion went oh for eight, ten penalties for
Buffalo Bill's MVP. Quarterback Josh Allen did not play. Mike
White started. He was four of eleven to fifty four
yards by the way, eight total kickoffs, no touchbacks. Tonight,
quarterback Caleb Williams played two series in Chicago, six of ten,
passing one hundred and seven yards in a touchdown. Chicago

(01:45:35):
led at the half twenty eight nothing, and in the
first half it had twenty first downs.

Speaker 2 (01:45:39):
To three for Buffalo Geez.

Speaker 4 (01:45:41):
The yardage advantage at the half was three hundred and
seventy one yards to forty seven. The game at New
Orleans today wound up a tie seventeen Alls, Saints and
Jaguars for the Jags Trevor Lawrence one touchdown pass, one
fumble for the Saint Spencer Rattler with a late TD
pass and two point conversion to even three. New Orleans
went three for three on field goals, including a fifty

(01:46:03):
one yarder by Blake Groupie. Jacksonville wide receiver Travis Hunter
did not play due to a quote upper body injury
and know there is no overtime in the preseason. Yet
another tie this month, New Orleans traded for Jacksonville center
Luke Fortner. Saints center Will Klapp is out for the year.
The Eagles acquired wide receiver John Metschi from the Texans.

(01:46:23):
The Bengals are listening to trade offers for pass rusher
Trey Hendrickson, whose contract talks are at an impass Carolina
is signing quarterback Bryce Perkins, who is the Spring League
MVP this year. Panthers veteran qb Andy Dalton left Saturday
with an elbow injury. Scottie Scheffler was the golf winner
in Maryland by two strokes over Robert McIntyre, who shot

After that, LA went twelve and twenty one to completely
blow the lead, got it back this weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:48:47):
Steve I put this start up plank didn't get to it.
Teams that the division leaders on. I think it was
like June fourth, it's usually July fourth, is.

Speaker 4 (01:49:00):
Yeah, but I think two of them now still this year. Yes, yeah,
it's one lead after another. The Mets Yankees included on that. Yes, absolutely,
a lot of teams have gone from six to seven
games up to six seven games back. Absolutely, Milwaukee had
won fourteen straight. That's the first place team in the
NL Central. They're eight games up on the Cubs. Cubs

(01:49:22):
won today Milwaukee lost, but yeah, the streak's over. But
the Brewers having a great year, and it looked like
this was going to be another magical win to run
home or top of the ninth to take the lead,
and then they give up a run in the bottom
of the ninth and one in the tenth and lost
three to two to the Reds Baltimore twelve. Nothing over, Houston.

Speaker 3 (01:49:40):
Back to you, thanks, team, have a great week man,
awesome stuff tonight. All right, Arnie, let's get a couple
in here, maybe a few from today's game if you'd like.
But after week two of the preseason, we know this.

Speaker 2 (01:49:52):
After week two of the preseason, I know this, and
people were telling me about it. Everybody was a matter
of fact saying, and I really didn't jump aboard right
off the bad bad news for you, though, Chris. The
Denver Broncos are going to be for real. Even though
you're not seeing bow Knicks. Even when Denver looks good
with Stidham and Ellinger and they look really good with

(01:50:14):
those guys, think what they're gonna be with bow Knicks.
They're gonna be the real deal this year. I think
they're gonna push Kansas City, uh, for that for that
divisional title. I can't wait to see what they're gonna
do this year.

Speaker 3 (01:50:26):
And you based that on the two games they've played
in the preseason, So we don't.

Speaker 2 (01:50:31):
Well, we learned two weeks after the preseason.

Speaker 3 (01:50:34):
What is it more about anything they did in the
offseason or is it more about what you've seen in
these two weeks.

Speaker 2 (01:50:40):
No, I mean, look, everybody was jumping on them anyway.
And I do like bow Knicks and don't want to
see how he develops. But I'm like, look at the
Numbersiam's putting up an Ellinger when you can put up
an Elger, especially when you're putting up good numbers with
those guys, imagine what Bo's going to do. I also
think that you know, the Raiders are going to go

(01:51:01):
ahead and struggle in that division. So I and Denver's not.
You know, everybody's predicting the demise of Kansas City. It
could be Denver sneaking in there. Watch out for that one.

Speaker 3 (01:51:11):
I learned after this week that you know, I know
you found this one rumor. I don't know if it's
true or not from something called poly Market Football, which
again had its headline breaking rumor. There is speculation that
Kenny Pickett could be traded this week.

Speaker 2 (01:51:27):
Yeah, I sent out to you you.

Speaker 3 (01:51:29):
I just said that I think part of the reason
why you feel like you can move on from him
is because your two rookie quarterbacks have looked pretty good,
absolutely based on you know, obviously, if Jared Stidham can
look good, then I mean, imagine what could happen here
in Cleveland. I think that it wouldn't surprise me if
there is any interest in Kenny Pickett or any interest

(01:51:51):
in I don't know Joe Flacco to see him make
a move because I feel like both those rookies have
shown they can play a bit. Now we'll see how
healthy should or sand it is. But you know, Dylan
Gabriel is undersize. I know he threw a pick six yesterday,
but I thought he played really well when given the
opportunity yesterday.

Speaker 2 (01:52:10):
Matter of fact, I thought he looked better than Shador Sanders.

Speaker 3 (01:52:13):
To be honest with you, I'll say that now we'll
start with that. Is that going to be a big problem? Like,
oh yeah, yeah, you can't say anything bad about Shador?
How did the how did he go? If you say
something bad about him, he's got a minion of fans
that will jump in.

Speaker 2 (01:52:27):
And support him.

Speaker 3 (01:52:28):
And if he's say anything good about him, he's got
a minion of haters who are there to say, how
dare you say anything good about I think I got
that the way there.

Speaker 2 (01:52:36):
You go, Okay, after week two of the preseason, I
know this, and I think I'm the only person to
know this because you disagree with me. Uh And I
guess you've got your information from Steve Hartman, who would
disagree with me. But the Cowboys are not going to
be a very good team this year. They just don't
have it there, just didn't. They'll be lucky to finish
third with the way the Giants are looking. Thank goodness

(01:52:58):
the Giants have such a tough schedule well, otherwise the
Cowboys would be absolutely dead last in that division. I'm
not feeling it with Dak Prescott. Matter of fact, I told.

Speaker 3 (01:53:08):
You this just haven't even done anything in the preseason.
I've just thought I'm just not impressed with him overall
everything he's done.

Speaker 2 (01:53:15):
And I told you that. Just to have the number
three pick in the Fantasy football draft and everybody told
me I have to take cdee Lamb not gonna do it.
Not taking the Cowboy with my first pick. I ain't
have then, so I'm staying far away from that one.
My friend, Thank you very much. It's not gonna be
a good year for the Cowboys, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:53:34):
I'll add one more from this weekend that I saw,
and again I don't want to remind everyone that these
are opinions that will probably change in about six hours,
so maybe six minutes. Catch Arnie's Twitter update here in
just a bit. I thought of the teams that played
a few guys that I was pretty impressed with was
actually the Giants. And again I'm trying not to get

(01:53:57):
too drunk on the preseason.

Speaker 2 (01:53:59):
Get to get drunk.

Speaker 3 (01:54:01):
And I know that Justin Fields was awful, but Jackson
Dart looked really good. Russell Wilson had the big completion
that kind of opened things up. Heck, every quarterback they
played last night looked really good. But I don't know.
I'm just I was watching the Giants last night and
I'm trying to keep things in a little bit of
perspective here, but I thought they looked pretty good. And

(01:54:23):
I'm not gonna sit here and suddenly say, oh, I'm
banging the over on their over underwin total. But I
think of the rookie quarterbacks that I've seen out there
so far, I don't know if Jackson Dart doesn't look
the best of all of them. Now, in fairness to
Shady Sean, our Ace Titans fan in the house, I
haven't had a chance to watch all of cam Ward yet.

Speaker 2 (01:54:44):
Yeah, I watch played all that much, so you know.

Speaker 3 (01:54:46):
Yeah, I watched all the Jackson Dart snaps. I like him, Arnie.
He looks good, he looks comfortable in that offense. And
I think if there was anything that I took away
from week two to say I know is that I
think the Giants are trending in right direction. Now we'll
see if it if it plays out when they get
to the regular season, but in the way that they're
preparing for the season Onie, I like what I see.

Speaker 2 (01:55:07):
For So you think Picket will get traded in the
UH and Cleveland will just go with the three quarterbacks?

Speaker 3 (01:55:13):
Is that a real account?

Speaker 4 (01:55:16):
Like?

Speaker 2 (01:55:16):
I don't know if it is, but I, you know,
might as well go with it. Why if it's a
fake account? And I love trade rumors, that's why.

Speaker 3 (01:55:23):
I mean, I understand it.

Speaker 2 (01:55:24):
But but doesn't it make sense? There's no way they're
going to keep five.

Speaker 3 (01:55:28):
Wasn't this the last the last Twitter feed that gave
us wrong information as well that you kind of fell
for that wasn't true involving a potential trade.

Speaker 2 (01:55:37):
Hey, don't act like other people. I said a story
about how the BROADCO broadcasts put up a fake quote
for Micah Barson's.

Speaker 3 (01:55:44):
Dude, I saw that live. I was watching that game
with that ripped up, and I didn't see the report
when when they circled the broadcaster circle, is like, and
here's the thing that stands out to me. Right here
he talks about Super Bowl teams and he's talking about
the Broncos and they're going in depth on it. And
as I'm watching this and I'm listening to him, I'm like,

(01:56:07):
I honestly think that if Micah Parsons would have said
where he wants to go, it would have been a
massive talking point in sports radio, especially since we had
a show that night. And then come to find out
what it was a it was completely totally fake.

Speaker 2 (01:56:21):
I was waiting for the gold that comes from the onion,
so I or NBA.

Speaker 3 (01:56:27):
As as I'm sitting there watching it, it's just I'm like, wait,
a minute. I don't think this is true. I don't
think this is right. Is this some sort of bit?
But the Dinver Broncos broadcast team, man, they went with it.
They went with it, and they had analysis of the
quote and everything. He basically had him in a look.
They had him in a Broncos uniform. Is this.

Speaker 2 (01:56:50):
We got a break.

Speaker 3 (01:56:50):
When we come back, Arnie's picks will take us home
