Speaker 4 (00:52):
See. You know, there's something about the NFL, And listen,
there's a lot of things about the NFL that I
would say give it an advantage over some other places
that you go to watch your sports in this world.
But there is something about the NFL that I think
is being showcased right at this very moment, and we
will get into that for you coming up here in
just a couple of moments from now, Jonas Knox, Fox

watching this Jags Lions game. It's a preseason game that's
going on right now.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
And I'm watching it, and you know, I'm just kind.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
Of enjoying some preseason football and one thing really stands
out to me, and it just shows you a clear
contrast between the NFL and let's say the NBA. So
the Jags and Lions just picked one in two in

(02:19):
the draft last year, which goes to by and large,
the worst teams in the league. They just picked one
in two in the draft last year, and they're both
favored to win their division this year.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
Like, just think about that.

Speaker 4 (02:39):
If you were a Jaguars fan or you were a
Lions fan a.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Little over a year ago, what did you have to
hang your hat on? Like, what was really there for you?

Speaker 4 (02:50):
Like, if you're the Jaguars, you know what you're thinking
to yourself? Hey man, at least we ruined the colts
chances of going to the playoffs. You remember Carson Wentz's
final game in Indianapolis. Jaguar fans were so disgusted with
the Urban Meyer tenure and everything else that came along
with it. The Jaguar fans were like, all right, let's
let's let's orchestrate a clown out.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
That's what we're gonna do.

Speaker 4 (03:12):
We're so disgusted with our organization and what a disaster
we've been. Let's go ahead and dress up like clowns
and let's show up to a football game the final
week of the season. Yeah, but why do you want
to look like that? It might be kind of human out.
We don't worry about it. Just give me a wig,
give me a rubber nose, and I'll go out there

(03:33):
and I'll dress like a circus clown and then we'll
just see what happens.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
That's all you had. If you were the Lions. What
were you hoping for? I don't know.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
Dan Campbell's kind of fun, but you know, hopefully this
thing turns around.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
What gives you optimism? Nothing really.

Speaker 4 (03:50):
Furthest we've gotten is an NFC title game back in
the early nineties. But other than that, Eric Kramer's not
walking through that door. So I don't know, not really sure.
And here they are favored to win their divisions this year,
and it just it's peak difference between the NFL and

(04:12):
let's just say the NBA. You know, the big story
in the NBA this week is James Harden calling Darryl
Morile liar he'll never play for him again. And now
now the NBA's investigating the whole situation. But don't worry,
they'll drop a schedule release on your lap and say,

(04:33):
but look at all the fun games that are coming
up in midweek in February. It's like the NBA's so miserable,
Like everyone's so miserable. Damian Lillard's unhappy, James Harden's unhappy,
the NBA's unhappy. They got some gimmicky Ncson tournament, they
got this age. The NFL provides hope, is your team bad?

(04:58):
Are you a bad football team? Have you been bad
for a significant amount of time? Don't worry about it.
Things might line up right if you just add a
couple of pieces. Next thing you know, you were going
to be not only going from picking one and two
in the NFL, you're going to be favored to win

(05:18):
your divisions this upcoming season. And there's going to be
real optimism there. In a few months, the Lions went
from doormat of the NFC North, laughingstock of the NFC North,
to beating the Packers and Aaron Rodgers' final game at
lambeau Field, and now they're destined to take over the

(05:41):
division if you believe the odds. And so Aiden Hutchinson,
the stud young pass rusher for the Lions who went
number two overall. They asked him like, hey, do you
have any issue with Jacksonville passing on you and you
going number two overall?

Speaker 1 (05:58):
And he's like, no, no, this is where I wanted to be.
I wanted to be here.

Speaker 4 (06:03):
And let's say he did have a problem with it,
what's the difference. You're both supposed to be the best
team in your division. So as you watch these two
teams play, two teams that were considered the laughing stocks,
and in fact, you could throw the Jets in there
as well too. You could throw the Jets in there.

(06:23):
If I would have told you, hey, three years ago,
who are the biggest laughing stocks in the NFL, you
would have said who, Jacksonville, Detroit, the Jets. You'd probably
throw in the Browns. And yet here we are, and
depending on who you have a conversation with, the Browns

(06:44):
might be a playoff team. The Jets are going to
be a playoff team. And both these teams are projected
to be playoff teams. And it just goes to show
you this is why we love the NFL, because if
you're a fan of a team, at least they provide hope.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
In the NBA, they just misery. We're just miserable. We
don't like it here, we don't want to be here,
we're not going to play here, and we only.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
Will accept a trade there. At a certain point, you
just get tired of the negativity. So at least the NFL,
in the midst of a preseason game is showing you,
here's some hope. You could be a bag of crap
one year and the potential talk of the league the
next year. All you got to do is figure a
couple of things out, and that's exactly apparently what these

(07:28):
two organizations have done. Jonas Knox here, Fox Sports Radio.
All right, so there is a story that I actually
can't believe somebody felt the need to respond to, but
apparently they did so. Brian Gudukunst, the general manager of
the Green Bay Packers, made it a point to let

(07:49):
everybody know that David Bachtiari, his star tackle, will not
be traded. Now, it's a little random, and you pa thinking, look,
you got to get Jordan Love ready for the season.
It's a new era of football for the Green Bay Packers.
There's a bunch of other stuff going on. Why would
this be the need of Brian Goodakountz to shoot? What

(08:13):
is it about this that Brian goodacun said, You know what,
I got to make sure everybody knows David.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
Boktiari is not going to be traded. Oh, that's right.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
Because Aaron Rodgers posted some photo on Instagram with Garrett
Wilson and then he tagged Boktari in the photo, and
then people got to talking and throwing out some conspiracy
theories or throwing out some rumors that maybe with all
the O line issues that the New York Jets have
experienced in camp thus far, that maybe, you know, Aaron
Rodgers were like David Bochtiari, who's a close friend of his,

(08:45):
to join him in New York, et cetera, et cetera,
et cetera.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Maybe that could be a help.

Speaker 4 (08:49):
And Brian Goodacuntz wanted to let everybody know, Hey, then
that ain't happening.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
First off, why do you feel the need to do that.

Speaker 4 (09:00):
Secondly, this goes to show you where that relationship with
dynamic is at the fact that Brian Gudokuntz would feel
the need to let everybody know Baktiari's not getting traded.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Just let you know he's not doing any.

Speaker 4 (09:18):
Favors for Aaron Rodgers at all, whatsoever. He gave him
one All right, you want to be gone, We'll trade you,
send you to a ready made roster.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
You want to go to New York. All that is good.

Speaker 4 (09:32):
Rogers had some comments about the relationship with him afterwards,
and then apparently things are just not on great setting
and great footing when it comes to Guda Kunst Rogers
and maybe the Packers organization. Former Packers teammates. Yes, Rogers
reached out to Jordan Love all good. Roger's still close
with David Boktiari all good. Rogers still loves the Packers

(09:55):
fan base, still loves the city of Green Bay, A
lot of the local vendors there, all good, gouda kunst
Eh not that great. But why would you want to
help your ex, especially if they bad mouthed you when
you left? You Imagine finding out afterwards thinking, hey, look

(10:17):
things sort of soured in our relationship, but you know
we're gonna we're gonna go ahead and move our separate ways,
and all good. You're gonna be happy in this new relationship.
I'll be happy in this new relationship, and everything's gonna
be fine. Then you find out that your ex buried
you afterwards, even further called you out, questioned your character,
questioned your honesty, questioned all of it. Just I mean,

(10:40):
rip you to shreds. You imagine getting a phone call
a couple of weeks after that happened and like, hey,
what's going on? Hey? Can I borrow your truck? We
got to move this brand new sofa into our house.
We broke the other one fooling around a couple months ago, like.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Is that cool with you?

Speaker 5 (11:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (11:00):
Sure, thing here in fact, all fill it up with
gas before and afterwards. But do what you gotta do.
Use my pickup truck. And by the way, can I
buy you guys lunch? Not a problem? Whats Let me
help make things easier for you. Yeah, please, let it's over.
David bok Tari, even if he was on the trade block,

(11:22):
there's zero chance Guda Kuns would ever send him to
New York. Ever, he's not trying to help make Aaron
Rodgers life easier anymore.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
It's over.

Speaker 4 (11:35):
In fact, I think it's more likely they would trade
David bok Tari inside the division than to the New
York Jets. And I swear to God on that they
would be more likely to trade him to the Bears,
Vikings or Lions than to help Rogers out. Ever, again,
the Guda Kunsk Rogers dynamic is done. And the fact

(11:59):
that everybody was moving their separate ways and everyone was
doing their thing, and then Rogers had a little bit
of a sit down with the athletic and kind of
let everybody know, Yeah, Guda Kountz wasn't honest about this,
and he didn't do that and.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
He did that right. There was the nail in the coffin.

Speaker 4 (12:14):
So everybody's stoking these fires of oh well, Rogers and
Bachtiari reunited and their close friend. It ain't ever happening,
much like you wouldn't help out your rex and their
new relationship right after they bad mouthed you, Gouda Koons
ain't doing the same thing.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
It's not happening.

Speaker 4 (12:32):
So if you dreamed of that, the fact that Brian
Gudacuntz had to point it out and talk and address
in so many words, the rumors and some of the
stuff that was out there on this I got to
tell you everything you need to know about those two guys.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
That's a wrap.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio coming up in we'll call
it about ten minutes from now from the Tairaq dot
com studios. We're going to talk about something that I'm
actually surprised bothers me as much as it does. I
was looking forward to it. It's an NFL story. I

(14:32):
was really looking forward to it, and it bothered me tremenosely.
And I don't know or immensely. What am I trying
to say? Jesus the Hell's.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
Wrong with me?

Speaker 4 (14:42):
It bothered me immensely, and I'm trying to figure out
why it is that it bothered me because we've never
seen it before. It took place earlier today, but we
will have that conversation with you coming up here in
about ten minutes from now here on Fox Sports Radio.
So do you want to know what heak dysfunction is?

(15:03):
And I probably shouldn't laugh at this story because it
is a sad story, but considering everything else that's going on,
it's just kinda I guess appropriate for what the hell
is happening with one NFL franchise. So there are the
usual suspects that we call dysfunctional. They're the usual suspects now,

(15:27):
the Washington Commanders, they've always been at the top of
that list because of Dan Snyder and everything else going on,
and there's always a problem and always an issue.

Speaker 1 (15:36):
The Jets were at the top of that list, you.

Speaker 4 (15:38):
Know, I mean, there are some teams that are the
usual suspect the Arizona Cardinals. With all the stuff coming
out with ownership and the front office problems and things
like that, the Arizona Cardinals are now a team that kind.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Of gets thrown into the mix.

Speaker 4 (15:51):
But one of the teams that I don't think necessarily
gets the credit they deserve for being somewhat dysfunctional is
the Indianapolis Colts have not gotten a.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
Lot of the credit they deserve for that. I think
they've worked really really hard.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
Most notably, I believe that Jim Mersey has worked really
really hard at being somewhat dysfunctional. Actually, let me restate
that at being very dysfunctional. So obviously we know about
the Jonathan Taylor stuff. We have chronicled that story and
that disaster that's gone on with the Indianapolis Colts over

(16:25):
the course of the last several weeks. Jonathan Taylor left
training camp practice again. He's got a personal matter to
tend to. This is after he demanded he wants to
be traded. Returned to training camp, still wants to be traded,
but he's on the pup list and he's kind of
navigating some injuries and dealing with all that, and then

(16:48):
he sits down and has a meeting with Jim Mersey
a couple of weeks ago. They're in Jim Merseys trailer.
They talk for about an hour, they leave the trailer.
He definitely wants to be traded, and Jim Irsay decides,
you know what, I know what's gonna calm everything down here.
I know what's gonna calm it down. Why don't I
do this? Why don't I waltz on over to a

(17:09):
golf cart. Let me pull up a seat, and let
me just go ahead and explain my foundational beliefs at
the core of who I am and how I feel
about Jonathan Taylor's contract demands and his trade request. Let's
take a listen to the Colts owner earlier this offseason,

(17:32):
just a short time ago.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
If I die tonight and Jonathan Taylor's of the league,
no one's gonna miss us. The league goes on. I mean,
you know, we know that the National football rolls on.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
It doesn't matter, you know who comes and who goes.

Speaker 4 (17:46):
Yeah, So that is Jim Mersey's beliefs from earlier, just
a few weeks ago, when it came to Jonathan Taylor
and how he feels about things. And then Jim Irsay
decided to take to Twitter yesterday evening to make an announcement.
I am heartbroken that Toki has left us. Her story

(18:08):
captured my heart, just as it did millions of others.
I was honored to be a part of the team
working to return her to her indigenous home, and I
take solace in knowing that we significantly improved her living
conditions the last year. Her spirit and grace have touched
so many. Rest in peace, dear Toki. Toki's a killer whale, Okay, Now,

(18:35):
I'm not laughing about the passing of the obviously a
sad situation, and what Ji Mersey was trying to do
was commendable, and there was a lot of people behind that.
And if you followed any of the stories of killer
whales and the ones that have been captured and their
mistreatment and all that, you know it's a great thing, right,
you know all about that, But it just doesn't it

(18:56):
kind of show where they're at in Indianapolis when it
comes to the colts that the owner is more conserved
about saving the life of a killer whale than he
is maybe repairing a relationship with one of the best
players on his team, you know, like maybe that should
be the focus.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
Like it's a great story.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
Again, it's great that he's trying to do all this,
but he has shown more compassion for a killer whale
than he has a human being on his roster. Who
if you believe anything that anybody has ever said about
Jonathan Taylor going back to college, anybody who's been around him,
anybody who's had a conversation with him, anybody who's coached him,

(19:43):
covered him, you name it, all that you have heard
about Jonathan Taylor. Great dude, stand up guy. That's somebody
you want on your roster, and somebody you want is
a part of your organization. And Jim Er says comments
publicly on the whole situation are, well, you know, I
could die, Jonathan Taylor could be out of the league.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
Nobody would care.

Speaker 4 (20:03):
But when it comes to the whale that he was
trying to rescue who passed away, let me go ahead
and let me let everybody know and chronicle my feelings
and how terrible, terrible I feel about the entire situation
that right there ought to show you everything you need
to know about where the Indianapolis cults are at what
the f is going on in Indianapolis? If you would

(20:24):
have if I would have told you, hey, so, Jim
or say doesn't care about Jonathan Taylor, but he cares
about Toky. And I don't even know if that's the
right name. I didn't thought's you. It might be Talkie.

Speaker 1 (20:37):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (20:38):
I thought talkies were like a like a chip. Aren't
they like a rolled up like like like a rolled
up chip or something like that you buy. I'm a, yeah,
that's what. Uh do we have a talkie insider here
on the show? Like anybody ever had those? Those rolled
up like they're almost like Taketo chips that you buy
and they're supposed to be spicy.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
I've never bought them.

Speaker 4 (21:00):
And listen, no offense to Talkie or TAKEI or Toky
or Ticked.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Whatever your name is. I don't know what the hell
you are. I've never bought you.

Speaker 4 (21:08):
But apparently you were named after a whale or vice versa,
according to Jim Irsay. So, if you wanted to know
why some people may be given the side eye, by
the way, there's Jim Mersy diving into the water to
save Toky. If you want to know why, maybe some
people are giving a side eye to whether or not

(21:28):
the Indianapolis Colts could be serious contenders based on everything
that's transpired over the past offseason in two or three
or four and the number of quarterbacks that have been
rolled in there and what they did to Frank Reich
and the Jeff Saturday fiasco and deflate Gate and them
complaining about that, and then Jim Mersey is running with

(21:49):
the law. And if you ever wonder why people are
kind of questioning the direction of the organization based on
what's happened recently, this is exhibit A as to why
it's a problem. And yet for some reason we just assume, Ah,
I don't worry about him. Hey, they don't. Don't pay
attention to that. Anthony Richardson is our starting quarterback. Good
for Anthony Richardson. But if I was Anthony Richardson or

(22:11):
anybody around him, I'd be looking around going are we
sure about this guy? I mean, uh, you know, he's
got uh, he's kind of got this fish fetish and
he's not really like worried about his run. Maybe you
should have a running back fetish instead, like a Jonathan
Taylor one. I want to repair repair that relationship and
make sure things are on the up and up instead
of worrying about whether or not Free Willie three gets made.

(22:36):
And you are a part of the credits. Why you
got a running back who doesn't want to be a
party organization anymore. But never mind me, and never mind
all that. Let's just get ready for the season. By
the way, Colts Bears preseason action coming up later on
tonight at seven Eastern time. Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio.

into a story in the National Football League that I'm

(23:18):
surprised it bothers me as much as it does. I
can't believe it bothers me as much as it does.
But it's a real thing. It happened a short time ago.
It'll be yours here in just a couple of moments
from now. But for all the latest from around the
world of sports, make some noise for the one for
the Only Brian Fenley Jonas.

Speaker 7 (23:38):
With all this talk about Jim Mersey and his love
affair with sham MoU, I guess to me it's not
surprising because he has won.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
Blabbering beluga geez.

Speaker 4 (23:47):
Family, Hey, the guy's going through a loss. Why don't
you have a show a little bit of remorse? Yeah, okay, Like,
come on, tell me, what are you gonna do? Bully
that little kid from from Free Willie, you know, the
little like troubled kid who By the way, I'm pretty
sure how that movie was there two or.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
Three remakes of that? I think there were three, weren't there?
Got that movie is stunk? That movie stunk. I saw that.

Speaker 4 (24:12):
I remember seeing that movie in a theater as a
kid and then leaving the theater going, this is the
first time in my life I've ever been embarrassed. Like,
and I've wet the bed many times.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
I know another time where you've been embarrassed? When was that? Family?

Speaker 7 (24:25):
Well, so I just saw you come in studio here
with these cameo pants on, and I guess I didn't
realize that you still worked at the Army surplus store
as a clerk. I had no idea that you were
still moonlighting over there.

Speaker 4 (24:37):
Hey, you know what, Finley, your your jokes and you're here.
I mean you could make fun of Jim or say
and you make me make fun of me all you want.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
But you like, don't, don't let everybody hear this side
of you. All right?

Speaker 4 (24:49):
You were so I I saw you send a you know,
a nice message out earlier on social media this week
talking about how you were going to have some conversations
that you thought could help help some people because they
helped you. And then you step on the mic and
then you just start sticking a ship into people on
the air.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
And I don't know why that was necessary. What's wrong
with you?

Speaker 7 (25:10):
There's many sides to a human beings personality. Jonas, Yeah
apparently yeah, jeez, who knew?

Speaker 1 (25:18):
Good God? On that note, we do know that Saints did.

Speaker 7 (25:22):
And Jimmy Graham is out of the hospital this morning
after the team said he suffered potentially a seizure last night.
TMC was the first report what happened last night with Graham,
where he was seen trying to cross streets with oncoming
traffic in his face. They in law enforcement tried to
get him under arrest. He tried to resist, eventually was apprehended.
Law enforcement first accused him of being under the influence

(25:44):
of a controlled substance. The Saints are in Los Angeles
for a preseason game tomorrow versus Sid Rodgers.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
I do love how the people are like, nah to
cover up. He was drunk, Okay, all right, dude.

Speaker 4 (25:57):
Like, okay, he was drunk, all right, whatever you say.
All right, everybody knows like they could just read right
off the Oh no, he was drunk. Man, I was hammered, okay,
all right, never know, no medical issue, know nothing whatsoever.
He was drunk. The team's covering it up, okay, whatever
you say. I mean, look, and if he was, who cares?

(26:20):
All right, as long as he's healthy and he's happy
and he's safe and nobody got hurt or injured in
the whole issue.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
I mean, it could be worse. You could be Robert
Quinn who.

Speaker 4 (26:29):
Went out and decided to go ahead and take back about,
you know, half a bottle of apple Crown Royal or
whatever it's called, and then go play bumper cars with
people in South Carolina. So there could be that the
guy who's drunk.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
But there he goes.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
Thank you Kevin.

Speaker 7 (26:47):
Oh my goodness, Jonas, you bring up some great points.
And I got a feeling that if he wasn't under
a seizure, that he wouldn't be actively volunteering himself to
play the game of Frogger on the four.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Five yees, although I don't think it was four or five.
So what what's with Finley?

Speaker 8 (27:03):
Hey?

Speaker 4 (27:03):
Could somebody explain to me what happened to Brian Finley?
My god, what happened to you?

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Finley? Used to be a nice guy.

Speaker 4 (27:12):
Now everybody's getting that you're the can man. Everybody can
get it.

Speaker 1 (27:16):
There we go, jon Does.

Speaker 7 (27:18):
I'll leave you with this, And we do have one
NFL preseason game that is going on right now. You
did tease one that's coming up later on. Your Bears
are going to be taking on the Colts. But the
Jaguars are in front of the Lions twelve to nothing
at the half, three make it four field goals.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
That's all that has been the offense that has been
seen in this game. CJ.

Speaker 7 (27:36):
Beth of, the starting quarterback for Jacksonville, twelve completions, one
hundred and thirty seventy yards, that was pretty good, right,
one pick in one interception, actually one pick is an interception,
one pick in one touchdown. And then Teddy Bridgewater wearing
number fifty as the quarterback right now for Detroit.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
He is actually out.

Speaker 7 (27:53):
He started this game thirty four yards passing, sacked once.
Five completions on eleven passing yards are on eleven attempts.
And as I send it back to you, Jonas, did
you know that Teddy Bridgewater when I was reading and
obviously you already know this, but that he picked fifty
because he watched a fifty cent documentary and I think
that resonated with him. So he's out there wearing fifty right.

Speaker 4 (28:13):
Now, all right, So I don't even know if that's
a real story, because I don't know if you could
be trusted down because you've just you've taken a battle
axe to everybody on the air over the past five minutes.
I've never heard this side of friendly before. Where he mocked,
he mocked a whales's death, he made fun of me.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Now he's making fun of Teddy Bridgewater. Let me awaar you.

Speaker 4 (28:35):
Is there anybody safe? Is anybody safe? Brian Finley, First
of all.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
That's a no nobody hear saying.

Speaker 4 (28:43):
So if you're listening, just understand you're going to catch
some shrapnel here.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
There's no editorialism here in the newsroom.

Speaker 4 (28:50):
Jonas, Okay, but I do want to appoint just some
clarity here because nobody helped me out when I asked
for the help a few minutes ago on the show.
So they're not called Toky's the name of the dead
whale Jim Merces having a drink too right now or
porn went out too. Uh, they're called takies. Yeah, So takis,

(29:10):
not tokys.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
Are the name of the chip.

Speaker 4 (29:13):
And it's like this rolled up For those of you
that aren't familiar. If you if you're walking into a
liquor store right now, they're probably there. They probably got
dust on the wrapper, like the liquor store next to
the studio. But uh, it's like a rolled up potato chip,
like a rolled up corn chip.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
I gotta be honest with you. It feels like a
bit of a knockoff on.

Speaker 4 (29:31):
Bugles for anybody that remembers bugles back in the day,
which were really fun because bugles you could actually put
on the top of your fingers and then you could
like pretend like you were gonna scratch somebody or clawm
you could turn yourself into a into a carbonated were
wolf or a like well with all sorts of or
carbohydrated werewolf, like all these like chips and breading on

(29:55):
your hands and stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
Like that's what it feels.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
It feels like takies are based a knockoff bugle, which
is disappointing. I think bugles really don't get a lot
of respect anymore, now that I think about it.

Speaker 7 (30:07):
No, but I'd have more respect for you if you
actually came out to the studio here it actually wore
what you said on your fingers and was awarewolf.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
I would have more respect for you if you did that.

Speaker 4 (30:17):
Well, I'm not going anywhere near you, I'll tell you that,
not after what I just heard Jesus last week, goes
Andy Ferman.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
This week, it's a dead whale.

Speaker 3 (30:26):
It's me.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
It's Crown my God.

Speaker 4 (30:29):

way tire buying should be all right, So we are
going to have another edition of Do You Care coming
up here in less than ten minutes from now on
Fox Sports Radio. Let me just say this. I am
stunned that this bothered me the way that it did.
But Finley mentioned it right after he insulted the guy,
or before take your pick, Teddy Bridgewater wearing number fifty

(31:46):
and playing quarterback. It really bothered me.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
And I don't know why.

Speaker 4 (31:52):
I don't get it because you watch the old videos
of Doug Flutie back in the day when he was
at Boston College.

Speaker 1 (31:59):
He was wearing number two twenty two, and it was like,
you know, a little weird, but eh, do what you do.
That's cool.

Speaker 4 (32:06):
I think he might even more number twenty when he
was a member of the Calgary Stampeders of the CFL
back in the day.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
But you watched Doug Flutie back in the day, I
was like, ah, does bother me?

Speaker 4 (32:17):
Teddy Bridgewater wearing number fifty really annoyed me, and I
don't know why, but it does make some sense.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
There's a reason why.

Speaker 4 (32:25):
And this isn't to insult anybody out there who's bought
a bigger number for a jersey, whether it be a
defensive guy or an offensive lineman, if you're a fan
of those, or if you're you know, if there's a
you know, a defensive lineman, a lineback, like whatever, if
you bought one of those jerseys. Teddy Bridgewater was exhibit
a as to why skill position numbers.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Always sell more than those other ones do. They just
look better?

Speaker 4 (32:54):
And so I appreciate Teddy Bridgewater rolling out number fifty
to play quarterback. It was fun to watch and fun
to see. Two plays in I was annoyed and I
love Teddy Bridgewater, but it did bother me. So if
you're the NFL and you're making all these changes to
where now we can wear whatever jersey we want, and
guys can wear whatever number they want, They're not restricted

(33:14):
to a certain category or a certain group of numbers,
like if you're a wide receiver you gotta wear something
in the eighties, or if you're a linebacker you gotta
wear something that.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
No. No, no. Like the fact that we're opening things up,
I think are great.

Speaker 4 (33:27):
Please, for the love of Christ, don't open up quarterback numbers.
It's one through nineteen, and don't let anybody tell you
any differently. Don't let it go to Supreme Court. Don't
let there be a petition. I don't want to protest nothing.
All you need to do is walk in, show the

(33:48):
footage of Teddy Bridgewater in this preseason game against the Jaguars,
and the case is closed.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Never again. That's my quarterbit. Your quarterbacks got a dumb
number on.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
I'm sorry, Jonas Knox, Fox Sports Radio, get me on
Twitter at the Jonas Knox at the Jonas Knox on Twitter.
All right's coming up. We are going to have another
edition of Do You Care? If you've wondered, Okay, what
is this all about? I'm new to the show.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
I don't care it. What is do you care? What
is that?

Speaker 4 (34:19):
Well, it's simple. You have been told that a lot
of things in the world of sports and beyond matter
this week. A lot of people have told you that
we're not the only show you listened to. We're not
the only show you've heard. And we're going to tell
you why some of those things absolutely don't matter. And
it's yours next here on FSR. Come on, man, this

(34:48):
soun stinks.

Speaker 1 (34:50):
Why must you hate everything from our childhood?

Speaker 4 (34:52):
It's not everything from our childhood? The movie Free Willie
See and this is great? Is Michael Jackson song stinks?
Never mind the fact all the other stuff that goes
along with that conversation.

Speaker 9 (35:11):
He's he's been gone a long time now. Okay, well
they never mind, he goes back on the playlist. Okay,
never mind Jack the Ripper, You're forgiven. Everything's fine. We
can't even figure out who Jack the Ripper was. Maybe
DNA testing will help us.

Speaker 4 (35:24):
God, I know he might be on the updates today
based on some of the comments from Finley, Jesus, we.

Speaker 9 (35:33):
Should call it Brian the Ripper, Brian the Ripper, I
guarantee there's some guy who's got perpetual gas.

Speaker 4 (35:41):
That that's his nickname from his buddies. Hey, Brian the
Ripper's here. It is U two pro not two pros. Jesus,
what's wrong with the Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio. You
can listen to two pros and a cup of Joe
though on Fox Sports radioh those scumbags are on the
airwaves six am Eastern time every single morning. We are

(36:02):
gonna be on the air until four pm Eastern time,
one o'clock Pacific coming up in we'll call it a
little over ten minutes from now.

Speaker 1 (36:08):
So there, I'm gonna throw a what if at you.

Speaker 4 (36:10):
When it comes to a coach in the NFL that
when I say it, you're going to disagree. But I
believe that a move that was made this offseason has
guaranteed him more time in the job. I'll say that,
even if he loses, I think it's guaranteed more time
and a job.

Speaker 1 (36:29):
And we'll get into that for you a little over
ten minutes from now.

Speaker 4 (36:31):

Speaker 3 (36:48):
There are so many stories in the world of sports,
and most of them are a complete waste of time.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
DMZR reports.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
Now let's get kinky. Here's some of the big stories
from the last week. But Jonas, the real question is
do you.

Speaker 1 (37:01):
Care for that?

Speaker 4 (37:02):
We turn it over to our executive producer, Bo Benson
to find out what the hell people have been talking
about all week.

Speaker 8 (37:07):
Bo gonna be very careful here because I do not
want to get Brian Finley's ire today.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
No kidding, Yeah, cheat man, he's horrible.

Speaker 8 (37:16):
It's the thing about Frogger on the high like that's
I know, God, what a Sam and I audibly gasped
in here that was Yeah, he's.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
A Look, he's an age guy.

Speaker 4 (37:27):
I think we've learned they think we've learned that from
from Brian finc So, uh, Saints Chargers will proceed as
planned with Hurricane Hillary bearing down here on a southern California.

Speaker 8 (37:38):
Do you care at all.

Speaker 1 (37:39):
Not really listen, I don't care.

Speaker 4 (37:42):
I mean, this hurricane's already morphing into like you know,
Mother Nature cutting a fart over the Pacific coast, like
it's you know, now it's a tropical storm. Now it's
sort of veering off like I'm checking the local weather
out here. It was gonna say, you know, rain one
hundred percent and win's going to be twenty five to
thirty miles an hour, and now they're down to like

(38:03):
ten to fifteen. And I'm thinking, man, I thought we
were really gonna get a legitimate hurricane. Apparently we might
not so well. It remains to be seen. But no,
this doesn't matter to me.

Speaker 8 (38:14):
Next, Falcons running back Bijon Robinson made his preseason debut
last night, ripping off a twelve yard run. Do you
care it all here?

Speaker 1 (38:21):
Yes? I do, and here's a lot. I was hoping
he was going to do more.

Speaker 4 (38:25):
He looked great, and he's projected to be a great
player and have an immediate impact. But I was hoping
he was going to do more because it would have
skewed the Rookie of the Year odds because I've been
saying I think Bryce Young is going to be Rookie
of the Year and Bjon Robinson is the favorite. It
might at plus two seventy five on DraftKings and other places.

Speaker 1 (38:44):
So I look at it and I go, all right.

Speaker 4 (38:46):
Well, well let him, let him perform, Well, let people
get excited about it, and then all the money comes
in on Bijon Robinson, and then you can get you
can get better odds on Bryce Young and then people
while they're all fan boying over Bjon Robinson, assuming that's
going to be the I could cash in. But no
movement as of yet, so we are tracking that situation.

Speaker 8 (39:05):
Next, the Yankees held a team meeting after falling falling
seven games out of a playoff spot with forty left
to play, manager Aaron Boone saying, this thing is not over.
Do you care?

Speaker 1 (39:17):
No, I don't care.

Speaker 4 (39:21):
It seems like the Dodgers ruin their season, and most notably,
it seems like Dodger Stadium ruined their season. Yes, because
when Aaron Judge got his leg ripped off crashing into
the fence or the bullpen fence or whatever it was
at Dodger Stadium, Yeah, well.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
He ain't rising anywhere, and you guys ain't rising from
the bottom. Of the standings.

Speaker 4 (39:45):
It's over and that's what it feels like that it's
just about a rap for the New York Yankees, which
I'm sure people are going to be devastated by considering
how many fans they have. Next.

Speaker 8 (39:53):
Yeah, just to stop running to the wall of Dodger Stadium,
how about that?

Speaker 1 (39:56):
Oh come on? Yeah, geez.

Speaker 8 (40:00):
The Ravens signed defensive end Jadavian Clowney to a one
year deal I think for up to six million dollars.
Do you care at all?

Speaker 4 (40:07):
Kind of because Jidevian Clowney has had such a weird career.
Covering him at South Carolina when he was such a
high level recruit and the number one recruit in the country,
you would say, man, you know, it's been kind of
a disappointment.

Speaker 1 (40:21):
He was a number one pick.

Speaker 4 (40:22):
But he's still playing and still getting opportunities, is still
getting checks, so good for him.

Speaker 8 (40:27):
Next Wow, Dolly Parton released a cover of One to
Be with McCartney and Ringo Starr.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
Do you Care?

Speaker 4 (40:32):
Oh don't bo that's my fault and it's because I
don't care at all.

Speaker 7 (40:36):
Saints Side and Jimmy Graham was released from an LA
area hospital this morning after the team said he suffered
a seizure last night which caused him to act disarient
to Graham. According to TMZ initially arrested last night after
being seen walking across roads with busy traffic coming up,
and law enforcement had accused him, seeing what he was
doing first, of being out of the influence of a

(40:58):
controlled substance, claiming that he even tried to resist arrest.
The Saints are in Los Angeles for preseason game versus
the Chargers tomorrow. Speaking of NFL preseason, the Detroit Lions
are on the bord of the touchdown. Nate Sudfeld in
as QB number two in this game, six of ten
through the year, sixty five yards. He has a touchdown

(41:19):
the throw and that cuts it to twelve to seven,
now in favor of the Jaguars. Eight thirty seven left
in the third quarter. The Philadelphia Eagles making roster cuts,
including kicking out defensive back Greedy Williams. I'm Brian Finley.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
What a title?

Speaker 2 (41:34):
Are you ready for?

Speaker 1 (41:35):
The Gardner the Prince of Darkness? The Prince of Darkness
is in the house. I'm the man up in his face.
Jonahs knocks, I don't Shane choose any more.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Yeah, shape well, b God, Jonas Knocks is coming through
your speakers like a right cross from a boxer that
you've never heard of.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
They run through our ass like through a Tan horn
Man and we could not stop. Ten Now lie from
the tire Rack Studio. So Fox Sports Radio, what are
you talking about? What is this your first day on
the job.

Speaker 3 (42:05):
Here's Jonas Knox getting the fast playing Grandma.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
The pingo game is running the roll.

Speaker 4 (42:29):
So we've got some surprising thoughts on what could happen
to a coach in the NFL if things do not
go right this upcoming season. We will get into that
for you coming up here in just a couple of
moments from now, Jonas Knox, Fox Sports Radio. You can
listen to us as always on the iHeartRadio app. You

(42:50):
can find us on hundreds of affiliates all across the country.
Wherever you are making us a part of your Saturday afternoon,
we appreciate you doing so. We're gonna take you all
the way up through the end of the hour four
pm Eastern time, one o'clock Pacific, and we do it
all live from the ti iraq dot Com studios ti
iraq dot com will help you get there, an unmatched selection,
fast free shipping, free road has a protection and over

(43:12):
ten thousand recommended installers.

Speaker 1 (43:14):
Tire iraq dot com the way tire buying should be.
So I was thinking about this.

Speaker 4 (43:21):
Just situation involving the New York Jets, and if you
look at obviously all the hypes surrounding the Jets, You've
got hard knocks, you've got all the other things that
have come along with it, Aaron Rodgers is there, so
on and so forth, and you start thinking to yourself,
all right, how's this season going to go?

Speaker 1 (43:39):
What is it going to look like?

Speaker 4 (43:42):
And there's more and more people that are starting to
take a peek at the possibility that this could be
the next greatest example of team that wins the offseason
but doesn't win the regular season.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
And we've seen that in all sports. We've seen that
in the NFL.

Speaker 4 (43:59):
Back in I think T eleven, I believe the Philadelphia
Eagles went out signed a bunch of free agents, they
added a bunch of talent. The thought was, man, Philly
is loaded, They're going to make a run at this thing.

Speaker 1 (44:11):
And then they went out and went eight to eight.

Speaker 4 (44:14):
Like it seems like whenever the team that wins the
off season enters the regular season, it never goes as planned. Well,
the team that won the off season that's been the
talk of the off season this year has been the Jets.
And so if you go to certain places and you
look at their season win total and you go, well,
it's nine and a half, which you would assume, Okay, Well,

(44:37):
I mean, if this seems really a Super Bowl contender,
why is it only nine and a half. And there's
a couple of reasons. One, the schedule was really difficult.
They play in maybe the toughest division in the NFL
and they're in the AFC, so just getting out of
their division is tough. Just getting out of the conference
is going to be tough. And it's why I've always said, Man,

(44:59):
if this his team gets to the playoffs and they
win a playoff game and get to the divisional round,
I would look at that as being a success, considering
it's not like they were a playoff team last year.
They were the worst team in their division last year.
So I look at it and I go, man, I
would consider that a success, But there's a lot of
people who wouldn't. So then take it a step further,

(45:22):
what if they completely underperform based on the expectations of
a lot of people. What if they completely underperform, what
if they don't make the playoffs? So Robert Sala, the
head coach of the Jets, was on WFAN earlier this
week and he talked about a couple of things. Number one,

(45:42):
he talked about the expectation of being a Jets head coach,
and number two, the dynamic between him and Rogers and
his ability to coach Rogers and coach him up hard
even though he's a star of the team.

Speaker 5 (45:56):
Expectations here what I've learned, whether you're an expansion team
or not. At seventeen and er you said that goes
without saying, that's not where the pressure lies. The pressure
lies and waking up every day trying to find a
way to get better. That's how you get the result
that we want. And then we expect you can hold
people accountable and high regard. At the same time, I
think the perception of I coach, you play, shut the

(46:16):
f up, know your role. I think it's archaic. This
is a we're a team and it's not a coach's
and players division. We're all in this together. Because at
the end of the day, if we don't win, we.

Speaker 4 (46:25):
All get fired, which is true except for this year.
And here's why I say that. If they go out
this year and they don't make the playoffs, the thought
would be year one of the experiment didn't work, There'll
be a change. They already paid Rogers, They've already given

(46:47):
them a ton of money. So who do you normally
keep in this situation. Well, you're normally going to keep
the quarterback and not the coach. And you could go
through recent history in the NFL and you could live.
I mean, if you want to, If you want to
have a recent example, Cliff Kingsbury, Kyler Murray, both of

(47:08):
them got contract extensions, but you sided with the quarterback
and not the coach.

Speaker 1 (47:14):
Kyler Murray's still there, Kingsbury's gone.

Speaker 4 (47:17):
So I think the feeling would be, Hey, if they
don't make the playoffs, what does it mean for Robert Salah?

Speaker 1 (47:23):
Oh, well, yeah, I mean he's got to be gone.
I don't think it is.

Speaker 4 (47:28):
I think part of the reason why Aaron Rodgers committed
to the New York Jets is because of this quote
unquote two year plan.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
I think this has always been about two years.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
Because it's the first year and because we saw Tom
Brady do it, we just assume this is all about
that first year. If it doesn't work this year, there's
gonna be major changes. I don't think there is. Yeah,
you've got guys like Dalvin Cookoo signed a one year deal,
and you've got some other guys there who have signed
maybe one year deals just for the opportunity to play

(48:01):
with Rogers. I think this is all about a multiple
year investment with everybody involved. And I think one of
the selling points for Rogers in coming to New York
to be with the Jets has been stability. Look where
he came from. He doesn't want to leave everything that
he knew for his entire career to go to some

(48:24):
place where they're gonna turn and burn the head coach
after a year. I think Rogers has been realistic about
this whole thing the entire time.

Speaker 1 (48:32):
It's gonna take a couple of years.

Speaker 4 (48:34):
Guys. We hope we can get it done in one year,
but we're going to be better in year two than
we are year one. We'd love to go out and
do what Brady did win it the first year, but
the odds of that happening aren't all that high. I mean,
their win totals nine and a half. So it's not

(48:54):
like this idea that, oh my god, the Jets are Look,
that's a team that could. Yeah, they could win a
Super Well they've got the talent to, but the odds
would say no. You would probably lean towards the Chiefs
or the Bengals or even Philly. Again, like there's teams
out there in the NFL that you would look at
and go, oh, they would be more likely to win

(49:16):
a Super Bowl in the Jets. So everybody's looked at
what the expectation should be. What are the real expectations
of the New York Jets. I think the realist expectations
of the New York Jets have been had by Aaron Rodgers.
And I think he committed to this team and not
only just this team. I think he committed to Robert

(49:37):
Sala for two years, not just the one. And so
when people are talking about, man, maybe this is going
to be a disappointment.

Speaker 1 (49:50):
Yeah, they won the offseason.

Speaker 4 (49:51):
But what if they don't perform, well, there could be
wholesale changes and they could be you know, everyone could
be laughing and seeing all that you know, they've got
O line issues, and they've got all these other things
that have come along with it. Everybody's starting to look
at what if this doesn't go well for the Jets.
So let's take it a step further. What if it
doesn't go well, what sort of changes can you see happening?

(50:12):
Because I can't see them making a change of coach.
I don't think that's how this is going down. I
think one of the selling points for Rogers from when
everybody in New York got together with him was, hey, man,
we know you came from a place of stability, but
trust us, we're not going to turn and burn this
thing and do an overall to the coaching staff. Part

(50:34):
of the coaching staff, which, by the way, Nathaniel Hackett,
his close friend, is a part of. We're not going
to make wholesale changes after just one year. If we
feel like, hey, we've made significant strides. There was a
couple of bad breaks, maybe there was an injury here,
maybe an injury there, but we think we could get
this done in year two. I think when Rogers got there,

(50:56):
it bought Robert Salin another year.

Speaker 1 (50:58):
So he's right.

Speaker 4 (51:00):
Jobs are going to be lost if not if you
guys don't perform. But I don't think it's going to
be this year. I think he's Robert Salam much like
Aaron Rodgers is going to be getting a second year
to prove his worth. Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio get
me on Twitter at the Jonas Knox at the Jonas
Knox on Twitter, which, by the way, we've got some
feedback here on the show thus far. And we are

(51:23):
all about positivity on this show. If you've listened to
this show, you know that's the way we operate. It
is all about positivity. So when people chime in, we
want to make sure that they are heard. Greg writes
in Jonas and his Eskimo bro James Harden need to
both be sent to China permanently and hopefully both of

(51:46):
you useless bleep bleeps will be placed in a gulag
and eventually turned into pig feed.

Speaker 3 (51:53):
Haha.

Speaker 1 (51:56):
Troy writes in.

Speaker 4 (51:59):
Go cry like the millennial bleep you are about your
boy toy Elon Musk getting ready to remove the block
button and how your cracker ass is outraged and you'll
boycott and join threads. You irrelevant, soy boy man, bleep swallower.

Speaker 1 (52:18):
Ahoo ah.

Speaker 4 (52:26):
At the Jonas Knocks is where you can find all
that fun stuff. At the Jonas Knox. You could see
the unedited versions of both of those. Oh there was
also another one sent in, but I'm really not quite
sure if I could read through it without getting dumped.
You said that, so not trying to piss anybody off
at the FCC. Here on a beautiful, glorious Saturday afternoon

(52:47):
a sports socc radio.

Speaker 1 (52:48):
Wow Aho Sam, Sam? What is that? Okay? What is that?
Bill Romanowski? Is that's Romo? Yeah? Wow aho.

Speaker 9 (53:07):
Ahown fits pretty well, doesn't it?

Speaker 1 (53:13):
All right?

So come it up. Next, we've got two stories to address,
one of which nobody wants to say out loud because

(53:39):
they're just grateful to have it.

Speaker 1 (53:41):
That's number one.

Speaker 4 (53:42):
Number two, I got a funny feeling one coach pissed
off the wrong people, and we'll have that for you next.

Speaker 1 (53:53):
Ah Ah, this song stinks. Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio.
Oh god, Sam, you're an idiot. It's just Jonas.

Speaker 4 (54:14):
Yeah, it just never fails, never fails. All right, So
coming up in we will call it a little over
ten minutes from now it is pretty funny how the
media is tracking a situation in the NFL involving a
coach and a quarterback.

Speaker 1 (54:29):
That is pretty funny.

Speaker 4 (54:31):
We will tell you why that is coming up here
because it's very obvious what's going on, and we'll have
that discussion with you in a little over ten minutes
from now here on Fox Sports Radio. All right, So,
can I just say something that nobody else probably wants
to say because everyone's just really grateful and happy to
have it back.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
So I would just like to point this out.

Speaker 4 (54:54):
The opening weekend of college football, and I'm not talking
about week zero. I'm talking about week zero. I'm not
talking about next weekend. Okay, I'm not talking about you know,
Navy and Notre Dame Live from Dublin, Ireland, which I
will be at. That game will be on actually at

(55:17):
this time next week. I'm not talking about any of
the others. So I'm not talking about Hawaii Vanderbilt. I'm
not talking about quote unquote week zero. I'm talking about
Week one. I'm talking about the Labor Day weekend edition
of college football kind of underwhelming in comparison to last year.

(55:41):
You had, you know, Oregon and Georgia, and you had
these great matchups last year, and it was like, oh man,
we've got all sorts of like this year's Week one
not all that great, not a lot of projected close games.
Like you look at it and you go, oh, I
was expecting something more because normally what ends up happening

(56:02):
is college football will roll out a great Labor Day
weekend and then the next weekend, because they're you know,
dealing with some of the coverage at the opening weekend
of the NFL, are going to get the next weekend
is a little underwhelming. You go, oh, well, Week two
is not all that great. But this year, like the
opening weekend at college football, the Week one version, there's

(56:27):
nothing really that great. Like if you're looking for Top
twenty five matchups ranked team versus ranked teams, I mean,
if we're going to believe that, you know, the AP
Top twenty five is legitimate. If you're looking for ranked matchups,
you got to go all the way to Sunday night
because you got LSU and Florida State. Other than that,

(56:50):
you don't really have a lot of top twenty five matchups.
You don't even have a lot of close point spreads.
I mean, if you just go up and down, you
can go to South Carolina, North Carolina's projected to be
a good game, maybe Florida Utah that's on a Thursday.

(57:10):
But other than that, you just look at the opening
weekend of college football and it just does feel like
it's a little bit underwhelming in comparison to what we've
seen in the past. I mean, if you go to
the first Saturday, if we're talking about just hey, first
Saturday ranked team, one of the first ranked teams, it's
going to be appearing in the first big Saturday of

(57:34):
college football in week one, like one of those team
you know first teams is going to be Michigan. You
know their ranked number two. They got East Carolina and
nobody expects East Carolina to do anything in that matchup.
But that's not even the story of that matchup. The
story of that matchup is what the hell's going on
with Jim Harbaugh. This is one of the most fascinating

(57:56):
situations in football that I don't. I don't think is
getting a lot of love. And the more that comes
out of this story, the more I love this story
because Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan Wolverines apparently it reached
some sort of an agreement. There had been some sort
of AA Look, we understand you're not happy with us.

(58:21):
You know, we pissed you off. There was an investigation.
Maybe I wasn't as forthright as need be, or maybe
I didn't cooperate, but maybe we can come to an
understanding on something here, and we can come to some
sort of a resolution. So it comes out last weekend
that Jim Harbaugh and Michigan and the NCAAA had released

(58:45):
had achieved some and reached some sort of resolution, like
they were everything was going to be going to be
all good. And then later on that night, the NCAA
made sure to point out, Nope, no resolution, and in fact,
for all you people throwing out the it was over
a cheeseburger. As part of the violation theory, you can

(59:10):
go ahead and screw yourself now, that's definitely not because
of that. These are violations during COVID and recruiting violations, etc.

Speaker 1 (59:16):
Etc. Etc.

Speaker 4 (59:18):
And I'm just wondering what happened between the time that
they had agreed to a resolution and the NCAAA making
a statement speaking publicly on the accusations, which.

Speaker 1 (59:35):
They normally never do.

Speaker 4 (59:37):
And they normally shouldn't, so much so that Jim Harbaugh's
lawyer even spoke about it when he released the statement, saying, Yeah,
I don't know why they felt the need to make
a public statement on it. That's normally not what's done,
but apparently they felt the need to do it. I
don't understand. So I started thinking to myself, what is
what could have happened?

Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
What could have.

Speaker 4 (01:00:00):
Happened between Jim Harbaugh and the NCAA that they had
an agreement and then right at the last minute the
NCAAA backed out and got a red ass about it.
Something was to happened. And I don't know this to
be the truth. I'm just guessing. But if you were

(01:00:20):
to ask me to place a wager, and if we're
really gonna make this hypothetical seem somewhat realistic, all right,
So if you asked me to place a wager, clearly
I'd have to be in the state of Iowa to
do so. I mean clearly, like we've understood that. Like,
I've clearly got to be in the state of Iowa

(01:00:41):
to do that, all right, So just imagine me at
a sportsbook window in Iowa. I got overalls on a
trucker hat and a pitchfork.

Speaker 1 (01:00:52):
Hey, heaven no, it's a Keno machine Iowa.

Speaker 4 (01:01:01):
And I place over a bunch of cash and they say,
what do you want to bet on? And I say,
I want to bet on the reason that the NCAAA
backed out of the resolution that they had come to
with Jim Harbaugh on this four game suspension that he
was supposed to have but then not have, and now

(01:01:23):
it could be back on the table. I'd like to
bet on why this whole thing fell apart at the
last minute. Okay, what's your wager. I'm going to bet
that Jim Harbaugh pissed somebody off at the last minute
with the NCAAA and they said, no, we're done with this,
and I'll take it a step further. I'd be willing
to bet that in his final comment to the NCAA

(01:01:47):
before they got off the phone together, Jim Harbaugh made some.

Speaker 1 (01:01:51):
Sort of a cheeseburger wise crack. I'm going to go
with that.

Speaker 4 (01:01:55):
It would not shock me if at the end of
the phone call, when they feel like they've come to
terms on something, Harbas shown remorse.

Speaker 1 (01:02:02):
All Right, we're gonna let this go. We're gonna let
this go.

Speaker 4 (01:02:06):
We appreciate you guys finally working with us and finally cooperating,
and we appreciate you guys knowing that there was an
investigation and you should have handled it the right way.

Speaker 1 (01:02:15):
But we're gonna go ahead and let this slide.

Speaker 4 (01:02:17):
We're gonna let you coach this full season out and
we're never going to investigate or look into this further.
But we need to know that you understand that what
you did was wrong. I could see Jim Harbaugh saying,
I totally understand what I did was wrong. I feel
total remorse for it, and in fact so much so
that what do you say next time you guys are

(01:02:38):
in town, I'll take you out for a cheeseburger. I
could one hundred percent see Harbaugh doing that just to
be a smart ass, not wanting to cooperate, And it
reminds me of the Jim Tressel stuff back in the day,
where Trestle didn't really he wasn't really forthright about the

(01:03:00):
tattoos and getting that stuff done, and then you know,
the more that came out of it, maybe Jim Tressel
just you know, oh, I just wanted to protect my players.
I wanted to protect and then just never got the
opportunity to coach again. Now he's at Youngstown State and
all that. But if you look back on it, people
go got the punishment for that stuff a bit much.

(01:03:26):
And I just wonder if Harbaugh's looking at this thing
and it's got a similar vibe to it to where
the NCAA's pissed off because he didn't cooperate. Then he
pissed him off again and they're going to do whatever
they can to try and find him in violation to
where he ends up losing his job. Because man, if
you remember, Jim Tressel went back to the NCAA and said, no, no, no, no,

(01:03:46):
don't suspend me a certain amount and then suspend my
players another amount. I want to be suspended the exact
number of games there suspended. And there was this big
back and forth and it went on and on and on,
and then finally at the end of this whole thing,
Jim Tressel lost his job and he was a great
coach for Ohio State, but he never came back and

(01:04:08):
never got an opportunity. And I just wonder if Jim
Harbaugh looks at this whole thing and goes, man, I'm
tired of this crap. I'm tired of dealing with these guys,
and I'm going to act the way I want to act,
and I'm going to defend my players, and I'm going
to do what I want to do. And if it
cost me my job, so be it. I'm just not
going to play by their rules. I don't like the
way this thing has gone. I don't like it. They

(01:04:30):
want me to kiss their ass so that we can
go ahead and make amends and everybody have peace.

Speaker 1 (01:04:34):
I don't like all that, and I'm not going to
be a part of it.

Speaker 4 (01:04:39):
Like that is the story that I think we like.
As much as everyone wants to dismiss it. Oh well,
you know it's not you know, it's not that big
of a deal. And hey, you know it was a
recruiting violation. There was a cheeseburger involved, the fact that
they had an agreement and then all of a sudden
it fell apart at the last minute. The only way
that happens is if somebody in charge got pissed. And

(01:05:00):
the only way somebody in charge gets pissed is if
something was said or done by the people that they
were dealing with, and the people they were dealing with
was Jim Harbaugh, And it would not surprise me if
Harbaugh made a comment like, Hey, I'm sorry, guys, I
apologize for all my wrongdoing. I'm glad we came to

(01:05:22):
an agreement, and I apologize so much so that next
time you guys are in town, would love to take
you out for a cheeseburger. And I could see them
losing their minds calling all of it off, and then
picking this thing up again months down the road, and
then we get a worse punishment. That's the only thing
that I can think of that Harbaugh would have done

(01:05:44):
to piss them off, because none of the other stuff
makes any sense. So unless Harba says screw it, I
don't care. I'll go out like Tressel. I'm going to
defend my guys and if you're not happy with me,
tough balls. Unless that was the movie, none of it
makes any sense. But again, we got the season approaching

(01:06:06):
Harbor apparently's going to be there for all of it,
and they've got East Carolina to open up the year
in a little over a week. Jonas Knox, Fox Sports Radio,
you can get me on Twitter at the Jonas Knox
at the Jonas Knox on Twitter, and he can hang
out with us as always on the iHeart Radio app.
All right, so we do have some good news here, right,

(01:06:26):

our popular Saturday and Sunday pregame shows Countdown to Kickoff,
presented by Bett MGM, are back this weekend. Be sure
to tune into Fox Sports Radio every Saturday and Sunday

(01:06:47):
through Super Bowl Sunday. On Saturdays, Brian No, former Penn
State All American, Rich Hoornberger and betting analysts Jared Smith

you everything you need to know about history. That'll be

(01:07:29):
yours right here on FSR, but for all the latest
from around the world of sports.

Speaker 1 (01:07:33):
He is the meanest man in spots Sock Radio. How
dare you? He is? Brian Finley? How dare you? Jonas?
That is so Jenny.

Speaker 4 (01:07:41):
A lot of people are commenting on just your negative
behavior so far on the show.

Speaker 7 (01:07:46):
Negative is very subjective, Jonas, because deep down it's actually
very positive because it gives people to those who chuckle.

Speaker 4 (01:07:54):
Okay, well, I mean there's a lot of people who
are offended and outraged by it.

Speaker 7 (01:07:57):
So really yeah, well I didn't see that, but I
will definitely honor those sentiments as Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:08:07):
See, I think I think what happened is you had
so much fun bullying Andy Perman on the.

Speaker 1 (01:08:12):
Air last week that it just carried over. You say,
you know, I want to try that again.

Speaker 7 (01:08:17):
Well, I think bulling is a bit strong of a term,
what don't you think, Jonas?

Speaker 4 (01:08:23):
I mean, you wardrobe shamed him after you professed your
happiness that you got to meet him for the first
time in person, and then you bury the guy on
the air. None of that's a lie that happened. And
anybody who was here last week knows it.

Speaker 7 (01:08:39):
Jonas, you know me well enough that insults are love
in just a sick, twisted way. I do it to
the people that I love, all right, because I have
the utmost respect for I know it sounds a little
bit around about, but just know that you're there as well.

Speaker 1 (01:08:56):
Oh well, I appreciate it being me preci littely deep.

Speaker 7 (01:08:58):
Down eight sid and Jimmy Graham was released from a
La Area hospital this morning after the team said he
suffered a sie caesar last night, which caused him to
act disoriented, to the point of which he was seen,
according to TMC, walking across roads and incoming traffic. The
police tried to arrest him, he resisted. They accused him
initially of being under the influence of a controlled substance,

(01:09:21):
claiming that that was the reason why. But these Saints
are in Los Angeles for a preseason game versus the
Chargers tomorrow. Jonas will be watching every second of that one.

Speaker 4 (01:09:30):
By the way, if you wondered whether or not you
were influencing people on Twitter.

Speaker 1 (01:09:34):
Yeah, because you made you made these cracks earlier. Bryan
rode in.

Speaker 4 (01:09:41):
Yeah, hey, Jonas, go replicate that bleep Jimmy Graham and
run into the four or five, one ten traffic and
rush hour and hopefully a mac truck or your f
boy elon cyber truck will make you a skid mark.

Speaker 1 (01:09:57):
It makes you and down traffic. You bleeps. So okay,
so it's going to see that family's got burner. Well,
let me say this, Jonas.

Speaker 4 (01:10:08):
When I saw sound a second of Frankenstein joining us
here on a comrex Field tat.

Speaker 7 (01:10:11):
Franken Jonas, when I said that, I prefaced it by saying,
if Jimmy Graham had not had a seizure, he would
not have done that, as if to protect him, and
to say that that is not something that he would
have done if not.

Speaker 1 (01:10:31):
For medical issue. If that makes sense, Yeah, totally, yeah,
it makes total sense. Yeah. Yeah, listen, I'm just pointing
out what people tweeted.

Speaker 7 (01:10:39):
I didn't know you were so concerned about what people
tweeted about you that I'm just really caring about that.

Speaker 4 (01:10:45):
I'm just letting you know this is what they wrote.
This is not about me caring. I'm just passing along
the message. I'm letting you know the influence you have
on the audience.

Speaker 1 (01:10:53):
Everybody got to pay this year, so we clear there.
It is wow.

Speaker 7 (01:10:58):
I don't want to know that guy who said that
what a loser he is. I will add Jonas that
we do have that big NFL preseason game and I
say big, and I'm not sure why I use that adjective,
but it's geez, what you don't quit family to Twenty
five to seven is the score here? Jaguars in favor

(01:11:19):
or are ahead, I should say against the Lions with
nine forty six left in the fourth quarter.

Speaker 1 (01:11:23):
CJ.

Speaker 7 (01:11:23):
Bethard, your guy finished his work after starting quarterback for Jacksonville. Yes,
thank you, Marcel one thirty eight as far as his
passing yards, one touchdown, one interception, and quickly. In baseball,
we do know that it sounds as if Dodgers pitcher
Tony Gonsolin is going to be placed on the injured
list with an elbow injury and probably won't return this year.

(01:11:45):
And the Dodgers are actually playing right now. They're playing
a doubleheader today because of the weather.

Speaker 1 (01:11:51):
That's supposed to come in tomorrow.

Speaker 7 (01:11:52):
But in hearing Jonas talk about the weather, it sounds
like it won't be that big of a deal tomorrow,
as he's part meteorologist as well.

Speaker 1 (01:12:00):
And it's Marlin.

Speaker 7 (01:12:01):
Seen Scarless in the third and lastly Jonas, it's eight
to one Red Sox against the Yankees. F s one
there top of the ninth Aaron Judge one of just
two hits for the Yanks. He had a home run.
It's eight to one there.

Speaker 1 (01:12:16):
You know, I will say this about that hurricane. It's
Hurricane Hillary.

Speaker 4 (01:12:19):
Yeah, a lot of jokes with that. So I will
say this one of the things in California that we
always take claim to, and we always say this, and
people are arguing natural disasters like tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, it's like, well,
which one's worst, And you know, people will say, oh,

(01:12:42):
well it's a hurricane. It's you know, a tornado's the worst.
Like one of our big claims is no, no, no, it's
earthquakes because we don't have a warning, like at least
there's a tornado siren. At least there's you know, weather
reports and things like that. You know when a hurricane's coming.
With an earthquake, we don't have any warning. Yeah, we
can no longer or state claim to that, because even
with a warning that there's a hurricane coming.

Speaker 1 (01:13:04):
Nobody here is prepared. Nobody.

Speaker 4 (01:13:07):
Like my wife asked me, if the power goes out,
do we have enough batteries for the flashlights?

Speaker 1 (01:13:10):
I was like, I don't know, I don't and I
don't care. I don't know. Look, we'll figure it out.

Speaker 7 (01:13:18):
Well, you guys at home have a lot of sensed candles,
so I don't think that should be an issue.

Speaker 1 (01:13:23):
Thank you, Brian. I appreciate it, Thank you, thank you
very much. Is there he is, folks, Brian Finley with
us here.

Speaker 4 (01:13:33):
So if you're wondering whether or not we're going to
be ready to go when this hurricane does hit us,
which who the hell knows whether or not this is
going to be a hurricane. At this point, I'm trying
to get a live update on this, like what the
the actual definition because it was a tropical storm, then
it went up to a hurricane. Then I saw it
went back down to a tropical storm, and so I

(01:13:56):
don't know if like what is below that, but it
feels like maybe we're heading towards that direction. But you know,
San Diego some places are gonna get it pretty good,
and so they're just moving all these games from Sunday
to Saturday just in case. And you know, listen, whatever
happens happens. You know, we'll try and we'll try and

(01:14:16):
figure this whole thing out. But we can no longer
just sit there and say, well, ours is worse, because man,
if we would add warnings, we would have nah, definitely
not Like this shows you why when it comes to
natural disasters, California really is the Pac twelve because last.

Speaker 1 (01:14:37):
Ones to act.

Speaker 4 (01:14:39):
And then we're gonna be looking around going, oh yeah,
maybe we could use some batteries, Maybe could use you know,
a generator, Maybe we could use Oh yeah, we do
need some food. None of the supermarkets are open. We're
gonna use that. Maybe we need some water. So apparently
some of us are going to be outside with a
garden hose in our mouth before they turn it off.

(01:15:00):
I'm just hoping we could get the last few ounces
of water before everything goes hey wire. Here all right,
Jonas Knox, Fox Sports Radio. By the way, it is
time for the progressive play of the day.

Speaker 3 (01:15:09):
Bunks to the left, tennis shot strange to the right,
Beth or drove.

Speaker 1 (01:15:45):
So I did want to mention this before we go
to break because I think it's hilarious.

Speaker 4 (01:15:49):
So Mac Jones and Bill Belichick, I guess Belichick yelled
at him at practice because they screwed some sort of
situation up during the two minute drill or something like that.

Speaker 1 (01:16:00):
It was like a goal line to GOLDI go situation.
So of course the media had.

Speaker 4 (01:16:04):
To ask Mac Jones about it, and Mac Jones just
told me, yeah, I'm fine with it. It's just, you know,
it's tough to explain to the media what the situation was.
But it was my fault and we needed to get
something done. It's a little bit nuanced, so I don't
know really how I can explain it. But and it's
almost like you got this feeding frenzy. It's like, you know,

(01:16:25):
eating a bunch of greasy food at the table, like
you get barbecue, and your dog crawls under the table
without you knowing, and he's just waiting for something to
drop on the floor, just waiting for anything. He'll take,
you know, mac and cheese. If you've got like a
portion of a chicken tender that falls off, he'll take that.

(01:16:46):
A French fry, God forbid, any of the fat from
one of your ribs drops off. If you're eating a ribi,
you know, the bone falls you know off, you know,
because you're sliding it off the plate too quick. He'll
take anything, any scraps to come off the table. He'll
take it because he's just looking to eat. It's almost
like the media is looking for this thing to fail.

(01:17:07):
They just want Mac Jones and Bill Belichick to fail.
They want Belichick to fail, They want it all to
fall apart because they were so tired of having to
write the same stories over and over for twenty something years.
Best team in the NFL back to a super Bowl,
best team in the NFL just won a super Bowl,
best team in the NFL, etc.

Speaker 1 (01:17:27):
Etc.

Speaker 4 (01:17:27):
Copy and paste, copy and paste, copy and paste. Now
they're rooting for the demise, like the idea that Belichick
can't even yell at his quarterback without the quarterback having
to be asked about it afterwards.

Speaker 1 (01:17:38):
Hey are you guys okay? Is everything okay?

Speaker 4 (01:17:43):
Dude?

Speaker 1 (01:17:43):
Mac Jones said it. I screwed up.

Speaker 4 (01:17:46):
What should Belichick wait until they get behind closed doors
and then talk to him? He addressed the situation on
the field, Everything's fine. I think mac Jones is going
to be better this year. Bill O'Brien is now the
offensive coordinator. I think the offense is going to be
better this year.

Speaker 1 (01:18:02):
I do. Are they going to be a playoff team?
Probably not, But I think it's going to be better
this year.

Speaker 4 (01:18:06):
But everybody just waiting for a scrap to fall off
the table is some sort of a sign at all
it's over.

Speaker 1 (01:18:13):
Everything's done.

Speaker 4 (01:18:14):
Just relax. Coach yield at his quarterback. Not a big deal.
Not the first time it's happened and won't be the last.

Speaker 1 (01:19:38):
Are the scraps all right? Bo Benson? What the hell
do we missed so far?

Speaker 8 (01:19:42):
So it has been a rather poor season for the
Saint Louis Cardinals, and so they started calling up some guys.
H Mason Wins he's a prospect of the Cardinals. He
got his first hit last night, his first career hit,
and met's first basement. Pede Alonso just throw out of
the stands.

Speaker 4 (01:19:59):
Yeah that, although I'll say that at least they got
it back. Yeah. I thought it was a joke at first.

Speaker 8 (01:20:05):
Yeah, do you see guys do that all the time,
Like they pretend to, like, yeah, it's like a.

Speaker 4 (01:20:09):
Gag, but I guess and Pete Alonzo just didn't understand.
They're like, yeah, it's first hit and just threw it up.

Speaker 1 (01:20:14):
Into his stands and then felt like an a hole afterwards.

Speaker 8 (01:20:17):
I saw I saw Twitter being like, well that sucks
and he can't get that. I'm like, he's going to
get that ball back. Of the Cardinals probably send security
down immediately and used facial recognition to find the guy.
And yeah, it's just funny. It's just just so funny.

Speaker 1 (01:20:33):
You know what.

Speaker 4 (01:20:33):
You know, what I also like is when something like
that will happen and a fan will have the ball
and then they go, hey, could we get the ball back?
That's his first ever hit, and the fan will try
and negotiat, Oh, I want tickets, I want to bat
and you know I want some big league chew while
we're at it too.

Speaker 1 (01:20:49):
Yeah, like, dude, just give him the ball back, that's
his ball. Who cares?

Speaker 4 (01:20:52):
Yeah, Like, why do you need to here? Here's another baseball,
you child? Okay, just give give me his first ever
career hit back. All right?

Speaker 1 (01:21:00):
What else we got?

Speaker 8 (01:21:01):
Baker Mayfield and his wife filed a petition to get
some info on the possible misappropriation of twelve million dollars
filed with an investment firm. Apparently involves his family too,
So that's that's weird.

Speaker 1 (01:21:13):
That sucks. And yeah, his dad is.

Speaker 4 (01:21:16):
Like one of the main part of the investment firm
and it, you know, twelve million dollars is nothing to
sneeze at. I mean the fact that, especially this stage
of his career. So feel bad for Baker, but helpful
everything turns out well.
