Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I have to have better stop from beginning.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Jonas Knocks, you thought you knew me. You didn't know
a thing about me.

Speaker 3 (00:07):
He's crazier than a else. Wrecked that guy, Jonas Knocks,
you heard me, the friends, some darkness is lighting up
your speakers to establish an alibi for the day. No
Live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. Here's Jonas Knocks.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Y Okay, I'm a cordless world. You know, it is

(00:48):
funny how people confuse what the audience actually wants. And
it's playing out in a big way coming up here
and just a couple of moments. It's from now Jonas Knox,
Fox Sports Radio. You can listen to this show as
always on the iHeartRadio app. You can find this on
hundreds of affiliates all across the country and wherever you

(01:10):
are making us a part of your Saturday, we appreciate
you doing so. We're gonna be taking you all the
way up until four pm Eastern time, one o'clock Pacific.
And you know it's a post Halloween, so you know,
it kind of tells you a lot about what's important,
especially when kids are reaching into the bowl trying to
grab and decide on what they want, So you're gonna

(01:31):
see the usual suspects. You'll see a three musket teers
down there. You'll see you know, a plane, Hershey's chocolate bar.
You know, you're gonna see like the usual suspects are
going to be buried down at the bottom of the
bowl and there what's left. And you know, at a
certain point when you're making those decisions, you don't really

(01:53):
factor in what people actually want. You just get like
the big bag of stuff and it's got all the
different options in there, and you get sold on Reeses
and you get sold on the other stuff that comes
in the bag. There could be a Skittles or a
peanut M and M. And then you're reminded at the
end of it all what really matters. And I say

(02:16):
all that to say this, while you are trying to
figure out a way if you've got YouTube TV to
try and find games you want to watch that are
on any of the Disney channels like ABC or ESPN.
You know what's hilarious about all this is the approach
that ESPN is taking to it all, because they're going
to roll out and give you all the oh hey, uh,

(02:38):
you know, Scott Van Pelt and Steven A. Smith and
all these guys are going to come out and tell you, hey,
here's where you go to complain to YouTube TV. Here's
where you go. YouTube TV is going to send you
all these notifications and be like, hey, guys, this is
what's going on, this is our fight, and here's what
you can do about it. Meanwhile, we're just sitting here going, dude,

(02:59):
we don't care what the fight's about. Can we just
get the games on? Can I just watch the games?

Speaker 4 (03:08):
Like?

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Is that possible? Can we just get the game?

Speaker 3 (03:11):
Like?

Speaker 2 (03:11):
That's it, that's all we want? We don't we don't
really care. Let's just get the games on. It's like, oh,
you got a Hershey's and a Baby Ruth and you
gotta have three musketeers in there? Sweet? Can we just
get the stuff we want? Like we don't really like,
we're not really caring. We don't care about your grab bag,
We don't care about what you what you bought at

(03:32):
Walgreens because it was on sale, and give you options.
We don't care about your options. We chose you because
that's the option we wanted. And instead you want to
have this public fight and make us a part of
it and be all, well, here's here's the update. You know,
this is what you can do. You can go to
keepmnetworks dot org or whatever it is and you can

(03:54):
click up here and you just stop. It's like when
you're in a hurry and you blow a tire and
you stop somewhere to get it fixed and the guy
starts explaining to you, a, so, this is what happened
with your tire, and this is where things went wrong,
and this is where you know, like and you got

(04:16):
to be careful because on these gravel roads you get
it and it's like, dude, can you just fix the
tire like no offense, Like if this was a scheduled maintenance,
Like if I'm going to tire rack dot com and
I'm trying to schedule some stuff, I get it. But
then it comes to a certain point where you're kind
of in a jam and you don't really want to

(04:37):
hear the details as to how it happened. You just
want to get it fixed and you just want to
move on with your life. And if I'm one of
if I'm an SEC fan, or if I'm somebody who's
got a game that's currently on ESPN or ABC or
scheduled to be. I don't really want to hear no
offense from Steven A. Smith about where I should go

(04:59):
and click on so that I can voice my complaint
to YouTube TV, and no offense to YouTube TV. But
I don't really want to hear or get an email
from you letting me know that Disney channels are going
away because of this. That why don't you guys just
figure it out. I don't need to know what rock
I hit in the middle of the road. I don't

(05:19):
need to know what happened when I approached a pothole
two miles previous to this. I just want to get
the tire fixed, and I just want to move on
with my life and watch the games. That's it. Nobody
cares about your campaigns. Nobody cares about you going to
social media and copying, pasting everybody. Nobody cares. I don't
just get it figured out so that we can watch

(05:42):
the games. That's it. That's all anybody cares about. Jonas
Knox Fox Sports Radio. Now that being said, you know
who doesn't have that problem. Fox. They're not part of Disney.
And it's actually kind of appropriate because I don't know
if you've noticed kind of what's going on currently right now.

(06:03):
By the way, Ohio is stayed up twenty four to
fourteen over Penn State. We'll have all sorts of updates
on that. All right, keep an eye out for number eleven.
You know that is a I don't know if you've
heard of him. LeVar Arrington's son is currently playing for
Penn State, So keep an eye out for him. Saw
him on Kickoff earlier. So that's part of the family.
But you want to know what how the whole YouTube
TV Disney thing plays into all this. It's kind of

(06:25):
perfect timing because if you say, wanted to watch a
game that was scheduled to be on one of those
Disney properties later on tonight, and now you can't watch that,
and you don't really want to go sit at a
bar that might have direct TV or some satellite or
illegal streaming device to where you can watch those, You're
gonna be sitting home and you're gonna get to watch

(06:46):
what is the most appropriate Game seven that we've seen
in a long time, and you're gonna get the Dodgers
and you're gonna get the Blue Jays, and you're gonna
see it all on Fox. Whether you've got YouTube TV
whether you've got direct TV, whether you've got Adelphia for
those of you that grew up with that back in
the day, whatever you got, whatever it is, you're gonna

(07:11):
get to see it. And it's the most appropriate Game
seven because it's gonna feature show Heo Tarni. Shoeo tanis
starting the game, and you're gonna get Max Scherzer is
the opposing pitcher. And for people that don't know the
history of this, obviously you know the history of Shoeo
Tani because he's made history the entire postseason. So you're
gonna get him to see in the final game of
the year, pitch and hit and when he's done this

(07:34):
before magical things have happened. Got teed off on a
little bit in his previous start against the Blue Jays,
but nonetheless that's historic. And then you're also gonna get
to see Max Scherzer and you know his two different
colored eyes, which apparently through the years are changing into
different colors. Also, it's kind of wild. You know, it's
like having a kaleidoscope but you left it outside and

(07:56):
got rained on. Kind of wild. What happens after that?
And so you get Max Scherzer, who was once a Dodger,
and some Dodger fans have felt like, you know, maybe
he probably could have pitched a little bit more in
that postseason, but he was trying to save his body
for a free agency. So there's that. Then you've got
George Springer. Everybody remembers the last time George Springer was
involved in a Game seven against the Dodgers. He was

(08:18):
with the Astros. I don't know if you remember that.
Guys were wearing jumper cables, they were banging trash kids.
There was all sorts of scandal going on. But the
point is this little dispute that is happening between a
couple of people who you don't really want to hear from.
You just want him to get it fixed, plays right
into the hands of the most appropriate World Series Game

(08:39):
seven we've seen, maybe in a long ass time, because
you're gonna get to see what has already been a
great series, which featured an eighteen inning classic that I
couldn't even stay out for because I gotta wake up
at one in the morning during the week, and you're
gonna get to see all the storylines and you're gonna
get to see it all play out right in front

(09:00):
of your very eyes. No fights, no disputes, no nothing.
And it does prove the point that while this may
go the way the Blue Jays, even though the Dodgers
are a slight favorite, it does prove the point that
what you're seeing is historic. The Blue Jays haven't done

(09:20):
this in three plus decades. It's been a long time.
The Dodgers are trying to do something that also hasn't
been done in close to three decades, and that's when
back to back championships. You're trying to see a team
cement themselves as a dynasty. You're seeing a player that
even people who are baseball buffs who talk about all

(09:43):
the great history of the game and all the great players,
you're seeing somebody who's doing something we've never seen before.
And on top of that, you got bad blood, you
got vitriol, you've got storylines to boot this. This is
the way this series is played out, the backstory and

(10:04):
the players involved on both sides. It's the most appropriate
game seven. No disputes, no fights, no nothing. You're gonna
get to see it all, and you're gonna get to
see it all later on tonight. And don't worry, they're
not gonna stop. You know you're not gonna see Kevin
Burkhard or Derek Jeter or Big Poppy. Go to social

(10:24):
media and campaign and copy and paste the same tagline. No no, no, no, no,
no no. You just get to get to watch a
great baseball game and what has been a great baseball
postseason and what has been in a lot of ways
a resurgence for Major League Baseball at the Jonas Knox
on X at the Jonas Knox on X and by
the way, during the MLB postseason, Strauss made history as

(10:45):
the first brand ever on the helmets work where built
to perform smart pocket design, real comfort and durability from
grit to glory. Gear up today at Strauss dot com
s t r a uss dot com. All right, we're

we're also going to have the week nine edition of
Knox Locks. Nearly went perfect last week, nearly, but unfortunately

get into all that later on as well too. All
of it is yours here on this two hour extravaganza

who wonder, because this is kind of a unique job
that we talk on the radio and we you know,

(12:48):
have a good time and all that stuff. A lot
of people wonder, like, hey, so what's it like behind
the scenes? Like all friends ass what's like behind the scenes?
You know, like, how's everything going? Like what are things like?
I mean, if you want to know, I mean, I
just called a called a bit during the break, So
if that's if that's any indication as to what things
are like behind the scenes, Like literally, for no reason.

(13:12):
I was Sam is in for Chris Prefet today and
for some reason it's really it's really Sonny out for
the first time on this show, And I was Sam,
what was the what was the reasoning behind calling me
a bitch for no reason? I didn't call you any
names during the breakwa.

Speaker 7 (13:25):
Was, I don't know.

Speaker 8 (13:26):
We're just catching up, you know, that's the run of
the mill, you know, get getting getting back to getting
back to old times, catching up, you know, just insulting
each other, good fun.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
It's like the it's like do you ever see the
the meme or the gift where you see like, hey,
how do how do good friends greet each other? You'd
flip them off, like you know some beoples like hey,
some people you give a hug, and then there's that
really good friend where you just throw them a middle
finger because you got you don't need to hug. You
just know where you stand. Jacket Sam, Sam and I
aren't next to each other, so he just calls me

(13:58):
a bitch. That's his verbal version of flipping me off.

Speaker 8 (14:01):
Just getting ready, getting you ready to take this segment
on getting you in the red right mindset?

Speaker 2 (14:07):

subscribe and listen. Have at it. If you think one

(14:29):
of my takes sucks, let them rip. I do not care.
I will not get offended. I am not sensitive like
some people who may or may not be at this network.
So you like fire away, let me know your let
me know your honest opinions. Now that being said, the
Miami Dolphins made a decision yesterday, and the Miami Dolphins

(14:52):
decision was, we are currently in a miserable state, and
so they chose to get even more miserable. Because the
Miami Dolphins decided, you know what, we got issues here,
we got problems. So here's what we're going to do.
We are going to fire our general manager, Chris Greer,

(15:14):
but we're going to let our head coach stick around
to finish the season. Now here's the reasoning behind that.
You don't want to rock the boat too much. Okay,
all right, So you don't want to rock the boat,
So you don't want to just fire everybody because then

(15:36):
it's a real mess. So here's what you do. You
just fire one person and let the other one, who's
going to be fired anyway at the end of the year,
continue to coach the team that has now seen the
GM fired, and we'll try and play for the coach
who's going to be fired. But they're just waiting to

(15:57):
do it. Does that make sense to anybody listening at all,
at any level, because it doesn't make sense to me,
and don't get it twisted. I'm not saying Mike McDaniel
should be fired. I never call for anybody to be fired.
I've been fired. It sucks. I never do it. You'll

(16:17):
never hear me say so and so should be fired ever.
But I don't think Chris Greer should have been fired
at this point the season. I don't. If you wanted
to make the change after the season, I get it.
But when you watched the Dolphins last play, like way
way way back, like a long time ago, you know,

(16:38):
on Thursday night, When you saw the Dolphins play on
Thursday night, did that seem like a team that was
heading the right direction? You know, like did that seem
and so the answer would be, well, of course you
got to make changes. Okay, So why this one? Because
now you've chosen to go from miserable to even more miserable.

(17:04):
Because now everybody knows how this is going to end.
Everybody knows, so this is how this is gonna go.
All the players just saw the GM get fired. They
now know the coach is going to get fired. But
it's just going to be a couple of months. You know,
just just sit this one, you know, just kind of

(17:25):
live here for a couple of months. Okay, if you
break up with somebody and you're living together, what do
you think having to live another two months together is
going to be like kind of knowing you know what
really is going on here, and that's what the Dolphins shows.

(17:46):
It doesn't make sense if you want to come out
and make a statement and be like, listen, we're not
making changes in the middle of the season. We will
address all of this after the season. I totally get it.
But instead you just we'll take a half measured approach.
We want to show we're doing something, so we'll go
halfway with this. Dude, either go all the way or

(18:08):
don't go at all, because now everybody's looking around going
seriously like we're doing There was already issues going into
the season. We talked about it during the off season.
There was already issues. The issues were that there were
reports out that there were a lot of veterans in
the locker room that didn't think that Mike McDaniel still

(18:30):
had the team. There was a lot of tardiness. I
got a lot of things going on. Tyreek Hill spoke
about his displeasure after the final game last year. He
opted out of the game didn't want to go back in, etc. Etc.
He got two a tongue of I loa calling him
out publicly, a lot of people being critical. But if
you go back to all of it, there was criticism

(18:51):
of Mike McDaniel, and I liked Mike McDaniel. I think
he was brought there, yeah, to win games, which he
did early on, but he was also brought there who
fixed the quarterback. They drafted in the top five ahead
of guys like Justin Herbert, and he did. But it's
not working anymore, and it's clear and I don't even

(19:12):
know if it's working with two anymore, not even from
a playing standpoint, because he's struggling in that regard, but
even the criticism he levels at teammates and having to
walk back comments and then trying to hype them up
during the game and they're not really responding. Just watch.
You don't need to break down the all twenty twos,

(19:33):
like break down the all twenty five. You know what
the all twenty fives are, it's all twenty two players,
it's Mike McDaniel the head coach, and then it's like
the two Dolphins fans and still go to games. Just
break down the All twenty five. What did that look
like for you on Thursday night? That look like a
team that wants out, We're done with this. That look

(19:56):
like a fan base that's like, dude, what are we
doing here? You got people now holes of popcorn buckets
and putting it on their head, like because nobody uses
brown paper bags anymore, so they're just using popcorn buckets
like to put on their head to cover themselves. Like
the whole thing is bananas. And how do the Dolphins respond?

(20:18):
What's their answer to it all? We'll just fire one guy,
but we'll let another guy who's eventually gonna get fired
keep his job for a little while. Okay, none of
it made sense, Like that doesn't make any sense. And
you're expecting players to do what to respond in what

(20:39):
kind of way? Well, this will show them we mean business.
What by firing the GM When you're watching the Dolphins
on the field and you're watching them perform the way
they are, and you're watching the I don't want to
say give up, but you're watching them just sort of
accept the reality of the situation. Are you thinking to
yourself in real time? Man, that GM, Chris Greer's got

(21:01):
to go he's not out there, he's not coaching, he's
not playing. Did he draft those guys? Did he hire
Mike McDaniel. Sure, but this idea that that's the solution
at this point in time doesn't make any sense. Like
you were already heading into the year kind of operating

(21:25):
as if you know, maybe closer to a rebuild than
we want to acknowledge. We got a quarterback that's making
a lot of money. But you know, Jalen Ramsey, great
seeing you man, Like just there, there were moves that
were made that you're like, huh, maybe this team's not
going to be competing this year. Maybe this is going
to be a problem. And the answer to it after

(21:51):
a performance like that is we'll fire one guy, but
we'll keep the other even though he's eventually going to
get fired. It's just bizarre if you know at this
point you're gonna make changes, like why are you making
one and not the other? And again not calling for
anybody to lose their job. I don't think anybody should
lose their job in the middle of the season. I don't.

(22:13):
I can understand why it happens, but I don't understand
the approach, and I especially don't understand the approach. When
you're watching the team, you're seeing how it plays out.
You see that the coach is miserable, the players are miserable,
the fans are miserable. So what do you do. You
fire one guy just to make the place even more miserable. Yeah,
it makes sense. That makes all the sense of the world.

(22:36):
At the Jonas Knocks on x at Jonas Knox Show
on Instagram and you can hang out with us as
always on the iHeartRadio app. Right, it's coming up next
here we are going to hand out an award on
this show. It's our TGFG Game of the Week. That'll
be yours here on Fox Sports Radio. But for all
the latest from around the world of sports, Ladies and gentlemen,

(22:56):
make some noise. For a man you dressed up in
the same costume. Damn right, he dresses in every day.
He dressed up his royalty Sports Talk radio.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
Royalty that is the one and only, Sir Isaac Longcros.
There is no off button on the royalty switch. By
the way, when you informed America that you were summarily
cursed out during the break, I'd assumed it was by
one of your many fans on social media, only to

(23:33):
find out it was one of our own.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah, Iowa Sam.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
You know, whenever Iowa Sam greets me, it's nothing but positivity.

Speaker 8 (23:43):
What happened nothing, I was looking for the I was
looking for something for the show you're talking about.

Speaker 7 (23:48):
You were discussing me.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
Yeah, my name came up.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Now, yeah, you know, well Jonah is the one who
brought up your name initially. Yeah, clearly, very very hurt
by it.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
He called me bitch during the break man, Like, I've
never called Iowa Sam a bitch once. I don't think
he's a bitch you called. I would never call him
a bitch, especially not during the break. I'd wait till
we're on air, do it for the sake of the show.
So that's what I like about Jonas.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
Jonas is an anomaly in this business because he says
horrible things to your face, but he says really nice
things behind your back. Clearly an anomaly in this broadcasting.
By the way, on a related note, we are you
are now over half an hour into the show and
no angry, insulting and even worse tweets, So you got

(24:38):
to up your game. I'm monitoring it live, Okay, I'm
monitoring it live. The only negative tweet was sent four
minutes before the show started, really at Shady Sean four twenty,
which means, I don't know, maybe he auto sent, you
know how you can like set the time schedule a

(25:00):
tweet ahead of time him. Perhaps he just had that,
you know, cent ahead of time automatically. So I just
report the analytics, Jonas, it's up to you to interpret
them and use them as such.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
It's interesting you would say that because I'm looking at
a tweet from Sloppy Joe right now, which, by the way,
sloppy Joe's underrated, underrated sandwich.

Speaker 7 (25:19):
That's a loose meat sandwich. Jonas, a loose meat sandwich.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
There's a there's not really there's not really a lot
of margin for error with Sloppy Joe's. They can be
really good. But if but one little mistake and it's
a disaster.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
And the key is you got to toast the bottom
of the of the button. Yeah, put it in. Yeah,
you gotta make that work. But a sloppy Joe on
X wrote in quote another effing bottom of the radio
Bowl day of Jay Off telling us how many show
Hey Glizzies he would like to stick in his bleep.
The new two Pros and a Cup of Joe logo

(25:52):
is completely Ai generated. You're standing behind LeVar, no way,
You're definitely a taker, not a giver. I missed that one.
I had a glizzy in my mouth. You said that.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Well, ironically, will make him feel even worse because our
top story is sho heyo Todi. Because tonight eight oh
eight Eastern Game seven of the World Series from Toronto
Blue Jays and Dodgers, it is official, the Dodgers confirming
a short time ago that show hey Otani will indeed
start Game seven on the mound. Max Schurzer will get
the start for Toronto. And college football right now, Number

(26:27):
one Ohio State a thirty one to fourteen lead over
Penn State after three twentieth rank Texas up thirty four
to ten over number nine Vanderbilt after three quarters, Number
ten Miami holding on to a seventeen to fourteen lead
at SMU six thirteen left to play in the third quarter,
and West Virginia now up thirty one to twenty one

(26:50):
at number twenty two Houston with two thirteen left in
the third.

Speaker 2 (26:54):
In the NFL, What wow, I was hard on you.

Speaker 7 (26:58):
That was just me give Owen Wilson drop reacting to
that West Virginia.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
Okay, I thought that was I thought that was Jonas.
I'm like, does he have something on that particular game anyway?
In the NFL, Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon announcing today,
Jacoby Brissett, we'll start a quarterback on Monday Night football
against the Cowboys. But the Kyler Murray, who's recovering from
a spring and foot, could have a role during the
course of the game. And finally, Jonas, we have a
World Series Game seven ticket price update. All right, cheapest

(27:27):
ticket for Game seven tonight, which is actually yes, can
I guess you can do anything you want.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
It's your show for the last time. I'm just saying,
like I wanted to ask permission. I don't want to be,
uh come interrupt you without you know, giving way the goods.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
All right, So okay, we'll start with this. We'll start
with this cheapest standing room only ticket for Game seven tonight.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
Gosh, I'm gonna say two. You want to try that again.

Speaker 7 (28:02):
I'm actually expensive in Canada. You got to remember that.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
It's just expensive, period.

Speaker 7 (28:06):
Yeah, yeah, even more so in Canada.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
It's one thousand, two hundred and eleven dollars.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
Oh to stand up.

Speaker 8 (28:12):
Yes, you have to stand in the bathroom too. And
there's a little TV they give you. That's it, all right.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
Average ticket price for that average ticket price for Game
seven tonight.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
I mean now that they charge you twelve hundred dollars
to stand up, I'm gonna say twenty five hundred pretty good.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
Two thousand, three hundred and thirty two dollars. And finally,
the most expensive ticket for Game seven tonight, front row
behind home plate. Oh god, you can call me Isaac.

Speaker 2 (28:43):
Well, I mean, I'm assuming Marlin's man's already got it.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
Oh jeez, please don't tell me that guy. They're letting
that guy in uh four grand two, No, Twenty one thousand,
six hundred and sixty five dollars.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
I got to be honest with you, man. Yeah, this
is not a knock on Toronto, because this is and
you're right, these prices are high everywhere you go. Like
why would you just watching home? You know what I mean?
What are we doing here? Like it's wait, twenty thousand dollars,

(29:20):
twenty six hundred and sixty five. My truck was twenty
two What I bought Jonas.

Speaker 8 (29:25):
Listen, listen, Canada hasn't won a Stanley Cup in three
hundred years. Okay, the Raptors were the last team to
win a North American championship. If you're not counting that
America versus Canada a grudge fast from earlier this year.
This is a big deal to the Canadians, especially Eastern
Canada and Toronto.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
Yeah, and with that in mind, it has been confirmed
by all those prices, But it has been confirmed that
is the most expensive sporting event in the history of Canada,
according to reports. Previously it had been the twenty nineteen
Briar Curling Championship in Brandon, Manitoba, won by the glen
Coe Club of Alberta. Actually, actually I made that last

(30:06):
part up.

Speaker 5 (30:06):
I'm kidding.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
It is the most expensive sporting event in Canadian history,
but I don't know what the previous most expensive sporting
event was.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
Actually, yeah, probably Toronto Calgary and the Gray Cup was
probably the biggest one.

Speaker 1 (30:21):
Oh yeah, the Argonauts against the Stampeders. If I'm not.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
Mistaken, twelve hundred dollars to stand in a game to stand.

Speaker 8 (30:30):
All right, have you ever seen you get to stand
outside the Rogers Center?

Speaker 2 (30:33):
Can I give you an idea on how to save
you know, a couple thousand dollars and make it feel
like it's realistic. Have you ever seen like on YouTube
you can look up. I'm such a nerd. I do
this stuff because we're out here in southern California. We
don't really get fall weather. We will get fall weather,
but we don't really get like the autumn leaves and
all that stuff and like the chill in the air

(30:54):
like most like a lot of places do, like in
the Northeast or the Midwest. We got autumn leaves where
I live.

Speaker 1 (30:59):
But I don't know about you.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
Well, you know, but here's here's so here's what I'll do.
I'll go to YouTube and you search Fall Ambiance and
they'll have these fake fall backgrounds. Oh like smooth jazz.
Why do that? Why do that too? It's great.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
Great minds think alike, and so do we.

Speaker 2 (31:19):
So couldn't you do? Couldn't you look up like World
Series in Toronto Ambiance Put that on the screen, you know,
put the game on like your phone and stand up
and save twelve hundred dollars. That's a great idea, I'm
telling you, man.

Speaker 7 (31:34):
I got the music for you right here.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
Oh it's great, it's but it's a little more a
bit more slow beat. And just imagine there's like, you know,
some AI generated pigeons picking up breadcrumbs from out in
front of a coffee shop, and there's like, you know,
carved pumpkins nearby. Oh it's wonderful. I'm telling you. If
he really sets the mood. Okay, I'll tell you what,

(31:58):
We've never been closer, you and I.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Especially considering that you know you and Sam are on
the ounce right now. But you can add you can
add this Toronto ambiance as well to this fast fall
A hit.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
Plat field down the line in the corner.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
That was Vin Stully calling Joe Carter's World Series winning
home run off of Mitch Williams in nineteen ninety three,
So you can have that as the ambience as well.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
Nice pulls on you, Isaac, and I just saved people
thousands of dollars tonight. You're watching in America and Canada.
We do all right, Jonas Knox here Fox Sports Radio.
By the way, we do like to handout awards on
this show, and some of these awards are incredibly spicy,
like the original Louisiana hot sauce. It's the perfect balance

(32:48):
of Pepper's vinegar and salt, wings, nachos, burgers, hit any
tailgate food with the bold, handcrafted flavor of the original
Louisiana Hot sauce. That's Louisiana Hot. Buy you some. And
it is time for our tgf G Game of the
Week for Week nine in the NFL, and the TGFG
Game of the Week goes two Jaguars and Raiders. Yeah.

(33:09):
Congratulations to all involved, and by the way, enjoy it
while you got it. If you're a Raiders fan four
h five Eastern time on Fox. But if you are
there in person as a Raiders fan, this will be
your last home game of the season. That is right,
last home game of the season, and ironically it's actually

(33:29):
only your second home game of the season because it'll
be the second and last time that the Raiders will
have more fans than the visiting team at this game.
Because I've never met a Jaguars fan of my entire life,
I swear to God, I've never met one other than
Bucky Brooks. I've literally never met one, and I find
it hard to believe that I would meet any in

(33:50):
Las Vegas who are heading out there on Halloween weekend
to go see their team play the Las Vegas Raiders.
So congratulations to the Jaguars and the Raiders. You are
our TGFG game of the Week. Thank God for gambling
Game of the week, because if not for gambling, Let's
be honest, who's watching this, dude? Jonas Knox here on
Fox Sports Radio. Coming up next here, we are going

(34:13):
to have another edition as we keep the positivity going
of do you careen, it's yours here on FSR Jonas Knox,
Fox Sports Radio. Coming up. We'll call it a little
over ten minutes from now. There's a team in the
NFL that is better at this than anybody in the league.

(34:33):
I will tell you who that is. Coming up here
again a little over ten minutes from now. But you know,
you can also follow along on this show going to
x SO where you can find me at the Jonas Knox.
You can also find me at Jonas Knox Show on Instagram.
We'll be posting in the IG stories, the the insulting

(34:55):
and rude tweets that are sent in during the course
of the show that will be yours that you can
follow along with as well too. But right now it
is time for this.

Speaker 5 (35:04):
There are so many stories in the world of sports,
and most of them are a complete waste of time.
DMZ reports, Let's get kinky. Here's some of the big
stories from the last week. But Jonas, the real question
is do you care?

Speaker 2 (35:20):
And for that we turn it over to our executive producer,
the one and only Bo Benz and to find out
what people have been talking about all week. Bo.

Speaker 9 (35:26):
So, apparently someone in the NFL had an exciting Halloween
because Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer his wife posted on
Instagram that an owl got inside their house. Jonas, do
you care about this invasion?

Speaker 8 (35:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (35:40):
I do. I love owls, you know, I don't know why.
They're just like they give off the like you see
him and you go, it's like a beautiful creature, like
just you know, they're aesthetically pleasing and then their head
turns completely around and you go, what is that? And
then you realize they just hang out at night and

(36:03):
they eat and they're huge. And if I ever go
on like a late night jog, an owl flow over.
I was actually telling LeVar about this in studio. I
was on a jog before the show one morning, like
we're talking like one thirty in the morning, and I
felt something fly over my head and it was an
owl that I mean, it looked like a like a UFO,

(36:29):
just like disturb It might have been actually, to be
honest with you, but just disturbing. These things are. You
see them, and they're elegant. Their feathers are beautiful. You
never see an owl that looks like he's distressed. And
then the next thing you know, they're swooping down, they're
picking up a cat and they're taking it away with them.
It's just they're an amazing creature. They're also terrifying at

(36:50):
the same time. Next, dear good.

Speaker 9 (36:53):
John Moran deflected questions about his role in the Grizzlies
lost to the Lakers last night, telling reporters to ask
the coaching Staffah, do you care, No, I don't care.

Speaker 2 (37:02):
Really, listen, it's not even the end of October and
already you've got a disgruntled superstar players who are in
It's just like this is same old, same old, copy
paste for the NBA. I'm out. Next.

Speaker 9 (37:15):
Bill Belichick told media that it feels great to pick
up his first ACC win with North Carolina. Jonas Do
you care?

Speaker 2 (37:21):
I do yeah, I really do because even because you
know why, because Belichick's already got you know, the people
that are out to get him in the media, all right,
So all the people there that are looking to right
the wrongs, they feel like they were wronged by Belichick
all these years. And I listen, If anybody listens to
this show, they know that I'm a big supporter of
Bill Belichick. I like his his approach to coaching. I

(37:42):
like his approach in general. I like his approach to
dating clearly, and so I look at Belichick and I
go even that you ask him he how does it
feel to get your first acc win? He says, it
feels great. You know that's going to be picked apart
and shredded by somebody in the media who still has
a red ass over the way they were treated.

Speaker 9 (37:58):
Next, Baltimore Ravens were fined one hundred thousand dollars for
their mistake with Lamar Jackson's injury status last week.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
Do you care, not really whether or not it was innocent.
I guess I'm more upset with the fact that, you know,
there was a lot of people, not me, but there
was a lot of people who are like, ooh, Lamar's
not playing and I already bet the Bears plus six
and a half. Ah, we got them, guys, only to
turn around and find out, oh, the Bears aren't that good.
Boy sucks for that happens next.

Speaker 9 (38:29):
The Chicago Bulls are five and zero for the first
time since the nineteen ninety six nineteen ninety seven season. Jonas,
do you care about this Chicago team that is good? Apparently, yeah,
I do, because, like.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
The Bulls are cut over here. The Bulls literally are
known for teams that played thirty years ago. The Bulls,
they're literally known for teams that play thirty years ago.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
And anybody since then who's played on the Bulls, like
you think about it, you go, oh, yeah, he was
pretty good, like Derek Rows pretty good. He was pretty good,
like Derek Ro's was an MVP, like he had some
good years there in Chicago. And still none of it
matters because all anybody thinks about are the Chicago Bulls
of the nineties. And it's actually ironically very similar to

(39:18):
the eighty five Bears, where it's like, hey, you know,
the the Bears are still run. Yeah, they're not bad.
What have they done since that Super Bowl? Man They've
won six playoff games. Really like, the Bulls have just
been living off the nineteen nineties Bowls for years and
now to see a new group of players come in
and start out the season hot, it's nice. It's good

(39:38):
for them. It's a it's a great sports town. I
wonder how long it lasts, but at least through five games,
they're the best team in the league.

Speaker 9 (39:46):
Next, I have tickets to see Bogonia at five pm tonight.
World Series Game seven starts at five pm. Jonas, what
should I do? And do you care? What is Bogonia?
It is a new movie with Emma Stone Jesse Plemmons.
It's apparently really good. But also, yeah, Game seven starts
at five can't you see it later on? I could,

(40:08):
but I could also watch the movie and then you know,
I can check my phone after him out and whatever
has happened has happened. I don't have to sit there
and watch it either way. So I'm not sure, all right,
why don't you be honest?

Speaker 2 (40:17):
Here is the movie? Also kind of if the Dodgers
go down earlier? Like, all right, cool too, Yeah, watch
something else I can do? Yeah, So it's like a
defense mechanism. Pretty much. Yeah. I like the approach. Yeah
I care, Yeah, I like the approach. Good for you, bo,
that's thinking ahead. You're not gonna live and die with
your team and you can go watch Bologne or whatever
it's called at five o'clock at the same time. From

(40:45):
the beginning, tennis balls all inside of it. I think
we're gonna have to get thrown for that guy. You
hurt me, Prince some darkness.

Speaker 3 (40:56):
He's slamming on your speakers like they're a door mountain
basket ball.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
Who can't Well, I'll tell you how the score comes out.
Two points right there. Now, live from the Fox Sports.

Speaker 3 (41:11):
Radio studios, here's Jonas Knoxy. Okay, I'll be part of
this world.

Speaker 2 (41:37):
So we've got ourselves somebody in the world of sports
who does it better than anybody else. We will get
into that for you coming up here in just a
couple of moments from now, Jonas Knocks Fox Sports Radio.
You can hang out with us as always on the
iHeartRadio app. You can find us on hundreds of affiliates
all across the country and wherever you are making us

(41:57):
a part of your Saturday. We appreciate you doing. Oh
we'll be taking you all the way up until the
end of this hour four pm Eastern time, one o'clock Pacific.
Last checked, YouTube TV and ESPN, we're still bitching and
moaning at each other on social media. ESPN using their

(42:20):
star power to tell people to get out and vote. Hey,
go to go to uh keep my network app dot
org or whatever it's called, and voice your complaints there
so you can be able to watch all these games. Okay. Cool?
And I was making this point earlier. You know, it's

(42:41):
like Halloween candy is a nice reminder. Halloween candy is
a nice reminder of what people actually care about. Like
they don't really care about your Werther's Original or your
your Sweet Tarts, like they want they want the goods,
all right, leave the leave the rest of that crap out.
They want the goods. They don't want a three Musketeers,

(43:01):
they don't want a baby roof, they want the good stuff. Okay,
Like give them the goods. And like ESPN and and
these ESPN personalities and YouTube TV are like telling you
all this other stuff and giving you all this other fluff.
And it's like, dude, just give us the games like that.
We don't care about this crap. Just give us the games,
like figure it out, Like just like figure it out, dude,

(43:24):
Like we just all we want is the games, and
so like the benefactor of all that, it's gonna be
the World Series. Like you're gonna get to see Game
seven of the World Series, regardless. You're not gonna have
to worry about Fox and some sort of a dispute,
not saying that it would never happen. I'm sure it
has happened. I think it happened not that long ago,
like there would be some sort of a dispute that

(43:46):
would play out like this. But you're gonna see get
to see Game seven of the World Series later on tonight.
All right, you're not gonna have to worry about trying
to multitask that and take the kids trick or treating.
You know you'd live to play another day. You're gonna
get to see show hey Otani on the mound. You're
gonna get to see Max Scherzer and his thirty eight
different eye colors. You're gonna get to see George Springer

(44:10):
and all the bad blood that that brings. You're gonna
get a fired up fan. But like you're gonna get
everything you could possibly want. Game seven winner take all
later on tonight. It is the best, the two best
teams remaining, maybe the best team we've seen in a
couple of decades, and they're gonna play it out all
later on tonight. And speaking of the best, somebody in

(44:33):
the NFL is better at this than anybody else. Right.
This is like a very upbeat positive segment here, right.
So if somebody in the NFL is better at this
than anybody else, that's somebody. Is the San Francisco forty
nine Ers the best, the best, And you're probably thinking

(44:54):
to yourself, well, like, you know, I mean, they've been
like one of the best teams in previous years, but
makes some the best this year. Like, if you ask me,
the forty nine ers are a team that's kind of
been up and down. You know, maybe not everybody believes
they're the five and three team that their record says
they are. No, no, no, no, they're the best. Here's what they're
the best at. They're the best at giving you hope

(45:18):
every single week that a player is going to return
from injury, only to find out no, it's actually like
a lot longer than that. It's actually like like a
lot longer than that. They did it last year, and
they're doing it this year. If you remember last year,
Christian McCaffrey had like, you know, this issue, like it
was like a calf or something like that. He had
some sort of a calf issue, and it was like, oh,

(45:40):
you know, everything's gonna be fine, you know, don't worry
about it. Nothing to see here. We're gonna be alright, guys.
All right, we're going to be alright, you know, just
some simple maintenance, some wearing Terry's been playing for a while.
But don't worry about it, man, everything's good. We are
good here. And then all of a sudden, you know,

(46:03):
four or five hours before kickoff of Monday night football. Oh,
by the way, Christian McCaffrey's not playing. It'll be Jordan
Mason who's getting the start. Oh that's interesting. Could have
sworn that, Christian mccaffe we was gonna be right back.
Could have sworn that it was nothing to see here.
You know. It's just your your typical, uh, everyday maintenance

(46:26):
that that comes along with the wear and tear of
the NFL. And but no, no, no, no, he's gonna
he's gonna miss this significant amount of time. Yeah, but
I'm strue he's gonna play this year? No, definitely, Yeah,
he's definitely gonna play. He played four games, like four
and you look back and you go, so what was that?

(46:49):
What happened Week one? And this isn't a Baltimore Ravens
we're trying to you were trying to evade having to,
you know, designate a guy. This to trying to play
trickery or whatever. They're just better at the messaging they
give people than anybody else to where they're going to
give you hope. The latest example of that this year
is what's happening with brock Purty. Okay, so brock Party

(47:12):
opens up the year for the forty nine ers. It's
a big year, all right, Like, this is a huge
year for brock Purty. He just got paid. He's out
to show people he's the real deal. He's worth every
penny they gave him. All right, set up for a
monster year. Brock Purty opens up the year, big win,

(47:33):
huge win at the Seahawks. It was ugly, but that's
a big road wind to open up the year. And
then he went on to miss a couple more games
after that, and then they brought him back for another game,
it's like, okay, but we got this whole thing figured out.
Don't worry about it. He's here, he's ready to go.
Plays against the Jaguars. If you remember, that game was

(47:55):
most notable because you had Robert Sala and Liam Cohen
go at it. And I think Robert Sala told him
afterwards that he would end his life, which is always
fun I mean, that's always a go to, you know,
like if you really want to get your point across,
you just tell somebody you're gonna end their life and
see how that plays out. But you know, it's the NFL.
You know, emotions were hot and all that. But what's
been funny about that since is that brock Pritty hasn't

(48:16):
played and probably shouldn't have played that game. And then
he's also not going to play this week either. So
this went from well, you know, it's just out of precaution,
we're gonna, you know, we just we want to make
sure that everything's right. This has gone from that happened
week one, we're now in week nine, we're at the

(48:37):
halfway point of the season. He still hasn't played, and
I'm not saying there's any funny business going on. I
actually want to give a tip of the caf to
the Niners because every week. John Lynch even said it
this week to where he came out and he was like, hey,
look he's getting closer. He's definitely making steps in the

(48:58):
in the in the right direction. You know, he's he's
practicing on a limited basis. He's definitely questionable. He's definitely questionable,
but definitely also not going to be playing okay. And
they just lead you along and lead you along, and
again there's nothing misleading about it. It's not like they're
out there, you know, telling you all, well, he's gonna

(49:19):
give it a go, and they're like screwing the gamblers over.
They're just better at this messaging than anybody else. So
they've got the giants this week and then they've got
the Rams next week. If you're asking me the way
this whole thing is gone, it's it was much more
serious than a lot of people wanted to actually let
it on to be much more serious. It's turf toe.

(49:42):
It's a problem. We've seen that pop up in the
NFL this year where you had turf toe. You know,
we gonna miss some time. But the Niners have just
kept this whole thing going to where it's weak to
week to week, and it's been Mac Jones who's come out,
and he's sort of taken a little bit of a
slide since, you know, since that Rams game where he
put on a show in overtime and his pole body

(50:04):
was cramping. He saw the dead body before the game.
But the Niners do this better than anybody. They'll lead
you to believe that their player is returning from injury
and he should be ready to go, only to look
back on it and go, oh wow, it's been two months.

(50:24):
Like we're approaching two months since the initial point of
the injury, and we still don't see brock Party. We
saw him once, probably shouldn't have seen him then, and
maybe it's set him back. So this is actually a
tip of the CAF to the forty nine ers. They
know how to give their fan base hope, they know
how to give people to cover the team hope, and

(50:44):
they know how to give their injured players hopes. As
John Lynch has done it again. He did it with
CMAC last year, he's doing it with brock Party this year.
And something tells me he's going to miss even more time.
They're just going to lead you to believe that it's
only going to be one or two more weeks at
the Jonas knocks on It at Jonas Knox Show on Instagram.
Speaking of somebody else who does things well, I tol
you this is going to be an upbeat segment, very positive.

(51:07):
Jerry Jones, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, has mastered
the art of letting you believe that his priority was
winning games. Yet the reality and the record would say differently. Okay,
So earlier this week, Jerry Jones express that you know

(51:29):
he's he's really focused on this natural gas bill. Okay,
Like he was talking to the Wall Street Journal and said,
there's one hundred billion dollar present value with gas out there.
That's why I'm talking to you on the telephone rather
than trying to fix our defense with the Cowboys. Okay.
So you look at that, you go, all right, that's
not great. If you're a fan of the Cowboys. The

(51:51):
defense has been an issue as everybody has seen. You
just traded away your best defensive player. That would be
a problem. So Dak Prescott, of course this had to
ask about the fan reaction to the comments from Jerry Jones,
and he said.

Speaker 10 (52:06):
This being a fan and you just read that or
hear that. Yeah, of course, especially right as many fans
are and do and thankful that they do live and
breathe by this team and they feel like their jobs
are you know what I mean, putting all their effort
into this. But in that sense, the guy's never really
lied about who he is or what he's trying to do.
And hopefully he was talking about in that one particular moment,

(52:26):
you know, maybe in those five minutes, this is what
he was alluded to. And having a chance at one
hundred million dollar opportunity, I think he might take five
minutes as well go and go answer a call.

Speaker 2 (52:36):
So he Jerry Jones being he backtracked on the comment
he made, you know, one of his two hits a
week on the fan in Dallas, knee backtrack and just
just kind of made lie to it. Oh, you know,
Santa Claus doesn't put you know, the tricycle under the
Christmas tree and whatever analogies he comes up with. But
here's here's just a fact, and Dak Prescott knows it,

(52:58):
and deep down, cowboy his fans know this, and Jerry
Jones knows this. Jerry Jones can operate any way he wants.
You're not going anywhere. He's got you by the balls.
He can trade away Michael Parsons, You're not going anywhere.

(53:20):
He can give Dak Prescott a contract that you don't like.
You're not going anywhere. He can sign Ceedee Lamb. He
can give George Pickens the contract he wants. He can
let DeMarco Murray walk but give Ezekiel Elliott a contract.
He can keep Jason Garrett for as long as he wants.
He can make Matt Eberflus the defensive coordinator. He can

(53:40):
whiff on Mike McCarthy when they're trying to get a
deal done in the offseason, then turn the reins over
to Brian Shott. He can do two hits a week
and talk about glory holes, circumcising a mosquito. He could
do whatever the hell he wants, and it doesn't matter.

Speaker 7 (53:59):
Because gals, yes, I won't make some glori health.

Speaker 2 (54:05):
He can say and do whatever he wants. It doesn't matter.
Anybody that watched the Cowboys and anybody that watched the
negotiation play out between him and Micah Parsons was looking
at it going why is this so difficult. Why is

(54:27):
this so this can't be this difficult. This seems like
a no brainer. It seems like pretty obvious to me.
He's one of the best players at his position in
the league. It's a guy who a lot of people
feel like is gonna win Defensive Player of the Year.
You would think that you would just get the deal done,
especially if you're somebody like the Cowboys who always gets
the deal done. They always seemingly get it done, whether

(54:53):
it was Zeke Dak Prescott, like they always get the
deal done, Dallas always does. Jerry always gets his deal done.
So why not this, Like this seems obvious to everybody,
And yet here we are talking about Micah Parsons on
the Packers. Nobody actually thought that was going to happen.

(55:18):
No insider actually thought that was gonna happen until it
started to play out and go longer and longer, and
he realized, oh god, he's just kind of doing his thing.
And that's the truth about about Jerry Jones. He knows
he can operate and run his team and organization anyway

(55:39):
he wants. And you're not going anywhere. If you're a fan,
you're not What are you gonna do root for another team?
What are you just gonna wait around and hope the
Mavericks don't trade away Cooper Flag if he turns out
to be a superstar, are you gonna You're gonna quit

(56:01):
him and just watch Dallas Stars games? Hey, you know what,
f all this, We'll wait for the Rangers, this upcoming.
You're not going anywhere. He's built the Cowboys up to
the value they are, and he's done it with primarily

(56:24):
underperforming teams for three decades. He does multiple hits a
week on local radio. He is talked to by the
press after games. There are times where you'll hear from
Jerry Jones before you hear from Dak Prescott, and Dak

(56:44):
Prescott just won the game. He does whatever the hell
he wants, and nobody tells them differently, And you're not
going anywhere. So when Dak Prescott has to say, yeah, well,
I'm sure that's you know, pretty jarring to hear of
your yeah, you know what else? Was jarring to hear
if you're a fan, Hey, we just traded Micah Parsons

(57:06):
because we wanted to improve our run defense. Kind of
jarring to hear, like, you know, you know what else?
Was kind of jarring to hear for fans. Also, we're
Jason Garrett's coming back, all right, Okay, you know it's
just kind of jarring for fans to hear a we
just gave Dak Prescott a monster contract. Oh and by

(57:29):
the way, it was more than we wanted to actually
give him. We lost the negotiation and he just snapped
his leg. But here's your starting quarterback. Like, there's a
lot of jarring things if you're a Cowboys fans that
you've heard, and you know what the consistent part about
all that is, It's not that Jerry Jones is making
the comments. It's not that Jerry Jones is saying the

(57:50):
quote unquote jarring things about the organization. It's the fact
that you've been there along the ride the entire time,
you've been through it all. He knows that, and he
all so knows it's not gonna change. You're not going anywhere.
He can say whatever he wants about the team, he
can trade whoever he wants with the team, and you're
not going anywhere. He's got you by the balls. You

(58:11):
may as well just accept it and deal with the
fact that, Hey, the offense is going to be fun,
but defensively. We're going to struggle the entire season at

(59:36):
what we've done thus far through a couple of hours

bleep bleep brown, Greg rights In, I don't understand why

(01:00:21):

Speaker 7 (01:01:06):
Oh my god, they love you, Jonas. They love you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:10):
So that's just it's just ridiculous. Who knew? All right, well,
did you we were discussing, discussing, way, Lieutenant Dan he
goes to my church. We were discussing, you know, Lieutenant
Dan the Gary. So yeah he does.

Speaker 7 (01:01:28):
That's awesome, Like great, I love Gary.

Speaker 2 (01:01:31):
He's a really really good guy.

Speaker 7 (01:01:32):
Yeah, he talked to him. Yeah, the pass the donation
ball is why.

Speaker 2 (01:01:37):
It's one of the nicest people I've ever met, Like
one of like the sweetest people I've ever met. Okay, yeah,
he said he loves the show. He listens every week.
Did you hear what? I'm just kidding? Ever since?

Speaker 7 (01:01:51):
What does he actually go to your church?

Speaker 2 (01:01:53):
Yes?

Speaker 7 (01:01:53):
Okay, I don't know what's true and what's what's with you, Jonas.

Speaker 2 (01:01:57):
I'll tell you what's true right now. What's true? Is
this the Miami Dolphins are a bad football team, and
as we mentioned earlier in the show, they think that
the way to get better and to make a miserable
situation way to improve that one. But we'll just fire
one of the guys, but keep the other guy. Okay,
all right, so you're gonna fire one guy, but you're

(01:02:19):
gonna keep the coach. And I'm not saying anybody should
be fired, but like, why you going halfway with this?
It just creates a worse ambiance if you will in
Miami for that team. It's just bad, you know, like
it's just and look, it's a team who's had some success,
I mean not in the playoffs in a while. They've

(01:02:41):
got the longest playoff drought of anybody in the league.
You know, once the Lions finally won a playoff game,
you know, the Miami Dolphins were looking around going, oh
so it's been like twenty five years since we won
a playoff game. Sweet, that's awesome, But like you look
at the situation, you go, it's already a miss miserable situation.

(01:03:01):
If you just watch the game, you can see the sideline,
you can see the coach, you can see everybody is
it's miserable. Everybody there is miserable, Like nobody listens to
two anymore, nobody wants to be around. Like it just
the whole thing's miserable. So they just make it even
more miserable by firing somebody and letting everybody just deal
with that on top of all the other losing and

(01:03:22):
everything that comes along with it. Like we'll just fire
the GM midseason. We don't, We'll keep the coach around
all year. We'll fire the GM like the whole it's
just the whole thing makes no sense. But like you're
looking around in college football and you're like, hey, what's
another situation that just appears to be miserable, Like just
a miserable situation. You know what that is? LSU? All right,

(01:03:47):
LSU who is apparently going to take Brian Kelly to
court over this fifty four million dollar buyout and how
that's all operating. Brian Kelly had a fact fake agent
accent that he that he brought up, you know, when
he first got there, Like he's dancing with recruits who
ultimately end up signing with Alabama. Like just the whole

(01:04:10):
the whole experience was bizarre and awkward and uncomfortable and
kind of cringey if you will, you know, kind of
the whole thing just had that vibe to it. And
then it didn't work and they kept losing openers. But
then this year they finally won an opener. They finally
won it the other Death Valley and they beat Clemson
and it's like, oh, right, man, Like, yeah, Garrett Knufsmeyer's
a Heisman Trophy winner potentially, and got all the there's

(01:04:33):
all this stuff that's there, and then you know, the
rest of the season played out and it just has
not gone well. Brian Kelly, Brian Kelly's now out. You've
got this buyout controversy. You got the Governor of Louisiana
who's got a real Cajun accent, you know, taking SIPs

(01:04:53):
of a beat of beer, telling telling the ad who's
still there. Well, he's not going to be the guy.
He's not going to be the guy. Like the guy
the Governor of Louisiana would have been better off like

(01:05:14):
going to that crystal meth lab and True Detective in
Louisiana and doing a press conference from there and being like, hey,
you know what, like this is where we're at as
a program, and the athletic director. He's not going to
be making the next hire. Meanwhile, the athletic director is
standing around going hey, I'm still here. I still well

(01:05:35):
not for long because then he was gone. Just the
whole thing was awkward. But don't worry about it. I
know what you're thinking. They've got a plan, and their
plan is, we are going to make this job something
that people want. Right. We are going to make this
a must have job. Right, so what do we do?

(01:05:59):
We have our interim ad Verge Osbury tell you what
the expectations are at LSU.

Speaker 4 (01:06:10):
We are not going to let this program fail. LSU
has to be in the playoffs every year. In football,
there's twelve teams that make it. It's going to expand here.
We have to be one of those at LSU. No substitute.
We have to be talked about on esp and every
channel we talking about LSU football. That is the way.

Speaker 2 (01:06:32):
I like it. I like it. In fact, I don't
like it. I love it. They got to be talked
about on ESPN every single day. And you can talk
about LSU on ESPN every single day and people can
see it if they've got direct TV, like you know,
like if that is that is something you have and

(01:06:53):
you don't have YouTube TV. You can't actually see them
talk about LSU every day. I also like the approach
of we've got to be in the car Let's football Playoff.
I mean, listen, like you know, I like the we've
got to be in the college football playoff every single year? Okay,
like every single year, Like that's a must. You were
required to be in the college football playoff every single year.

(01:07:14):
You know, things happen, injuries pop up, stuff go sideways,
you're in the SEC. It's a problem. But I would
think that maybe I don't know, I don't know, maybe
if you wanted to make that job more appealing, if
you wanted to be the team that people look at

(01:07:35):
and go, oh, you know what, like this is like
like this is a place we want. Like maybe you
could like tighten things up a little bit, you know,
like maybe don't have your governor come out and talk
about the job and talk about the ability of the
athletic director to do the job when he's still the
athletic director there. That would be a start. So maybe

(01:07:58):
you don't do that. Maybe you don't have the governor
blame the athletic director for Jimbo Fisher's buyout when what
really led to that large buyout was the guy that
took over after he left there. So maybe you don't
do that, all right, Maybe you could instruct the next
head coach to not come up with some fake Cagun

(01:08:19):
accent like one of the guys who you could tell
clearly wasn't from the from Boston and the movie that departed. Like,
maybe you could do that, Like you say, next head
coach would be like, hey, whatever you do, man, don't
do the fake agent thing. Like it's a really tough
accent to do, and not anybody does it, well unless
you're from here, like it. It's not a great idea.
Maybe don't do this. Scotch and a handgun to blow

(01:08:41):
my head off. He's not here today. But the point is.
The point is there's a lot of stuff that's gone
on at LSU that doesn't make any sense. Okay, do
you remember when Les Miles was the coach at LSU?
All right, Less Miles was the coach at LSU. And

(01:09:02):
I still remember this because it was hilarious to see
how this played out. He does a coaches show, and
he does a coaches show and some kid is in
the crowd at his coaches show, and there's like a
kid that starts crying because there's rumors and reports out

(01:09:24):
there that less Miles is about to get fired and
they loved less Miles, and so this kid gets on
the mic and he starts getting emotional and he's crying,
and less Miles plays it off and everything's cool and
this and that, and all of a sudden, their athletic
director comes out afterwards goes, oh, we're not firing less Miles.
Who said that? What he where'd you guys get that

(01:09:46):
from firing less Miles? Get out of here. We're not
gonna do that. We're not firing less Miles. Are you
kidding me? Come on? He was fired after four games.
The next year, It's like, you know, okay, ed ors
are on wins the national championship.

Speaker 3 (01:10:08):
There.

Speaker 2 (01:10:08):
I think we can all agree that was, you know,
maybe the best team in the history at college football.
There's no but like, you know, it wasn't that long
after he was clipped, Like, it's not like this is
just a Brian Kelly issue. It's not like it was
a Scott Woodward issue. The athletic director there. It's not
even like it's just the Louisiana governor, who By the way,
I was at the Super Bowl New Orleans. I was

(01:10:29):
there for super Bowl week. I gotta be honest with you,
there's other things that are a little bit more pressing
than you know, maybe the LSU program. I'm just saying
some things to clean up there, you know, like if
I buy a you know, a butterfinger off somebody in
the street, I don't want to revolve or pointed at me,
you know what I mean like that, Just there's some
things there probably could clean up. But you know, it's

(01:10:50):
a mess. This isn't just a Brian Kelly thing. This
wasn't just oh my god, it's no, no, no, Like there's
a lot of stuff going on there. It's it's not
this squeaky clean operation like with the Dolphins. It's not
just like, oh we got rid of Chris Greer, a
problem solved. No, Like this has been going on a while.
They haven't won a playoff game in twenty five years.

(01:11:12):
Like it's been a long ass time. So this idea
that like you got this new inter mad being, like
we demand this and we do. If I was a coach,
I'm coming out like what are you gonna do for me?
Here's what I demand. Why don't we get the circus
ten down and start playing games and winning games, and
don't just do it one year like we did with
Joe Burrow. Let's have some level consistency here. The idea

(01:11:34):
you're just gonna pin this on Brian Kelly kind of
laughable at the Jonas Knox on X at the Jonas
Knocks on X and get us on Instagram at Jonas
Knox Show. We are going to have another edition of
Knox Locks coming up. But for all the latest ladies
and gentlemen, let's turn it over to the man himself,
the Prestigious, the majestic, Sirrias at long term right.

Speaker 1 (01:11:58):
On all accounts, climb down off my throne to enlighten
and gaine the masses. With college football scores. Number one
Ohio State over Penn State, thirty eight to fourteen. Ohio
State quarterback Julian Sam completed twenty of twenty three for
three sixteen with four touchdown passes.

Speaker 2 (01:12:19):
Number twenty.

Speaker 1 (01:12:20):
Texas held off ninth rank Vanderbilt thirty four to thirty one.
Texas led this game thirty four to ten with ten
oh six left in the fourth quarter. Vanderbilt scored three
touchdowns down the stretch to make it a three point game,
but then could not recover a late onside kick, allowing
Texas to hold on. West Virginia knocked off number twenty

(01:12:40):
two Houston forty five to thirty five. Right now, tenth
ranked Miami holding on to a twenty to seventeen lead
over SMU twenty nine seconds left to play in the
fourth quarter. However, SMU right now is lining up for
a tying field goal attempt of about thirty eight or

(01:13:01):
thirty nine yards number sixteen, Which is it, Isaac. I'm
trying to calibrate it right now as we speak.

Speaker 2 (01:13:11):
Well, I mean, you got YouTube TV customers. You can't
watch the game for God's sake, Now tell me about it.
The specifics here, Well, right now, it's in a replay review,
so that field goal attempt is pending.

Speaker 1 (01:13:21):
The kicker is on the field. I will continue to update.
What happened was the last pass was an eleven yard
game down of the twenty one from the thirty two,
so that's being reviewed. So if it's ruled incomplete, it
would be about a forty nine or fifty yard field goal.
Instead of a thirty eight or thirty nine yard field goal,

(01:13:43):
because sometimes kickers like its seven yards back from the
lineup scrimmage. Sometimes they like it eight yards back from
the line of scrimmage. As someone who has obsessively actually
reviewed this in the official NFL Statisticians Manual. By the way,
can you tell I'm vamping to wait for them to
finish the freaking replay review and either kick it or not.

(01:14:07):
All right, We'll get back to the SMU Miami situation
after I tell you the number sixteen. Louisville and Virginia
Tech are tied at seven with one forty six left
to play in the first quarter, So whenever they make
a decision from the ACC Game Day Operations Center in
the SMU Miami finish, we will pass it along to

(01:14:28):
you post haste. But in the meantime, we'll tell you
that tonight at eight oh eight Eastern, it's Game seven
of the World Series from Toronto between the Blue Jays
and Dodgers, who officially confirmed today that show Hey O'tani
will indeed start Game seven on the mound. Max Schurzer
will start for Toronto. The reason there is a Game seven,
what happened in Game six on Friday night, the controversial finish,

(01:14:52):
the ball getting wedged in the outfield fence, the game
ending double play, and Jonas. After the contest, Canadian Sports
Network t SN interviewed Blue Jays fans about that dramatic
bottom of the ninth inning. Here's a sampling of what
they had to say, suffice to say, the most Canadian
stuff ever.

Speaker 2 (01:15:10):
Like the controversial way in which that ninth inning ended.
I think Bargie was safe, clear as day.

Speaker 8 (01:15:16):
I think America wants the Dodgers to win.

Speaker 5 (01:15:20):
They make more money doing that.

Speaker 7 (01:15:21):
We should have won that game. It's it's I just
don't even know what to say.

Speaker 2 (01:15:27):
A large ball just costs us the World Series.

Speaker 5 (01:15:29):
It sucks.

Speaker 2 (01:15:30):
There's nothing else you can say. It sucks. But I
believe in the boys. We're gonna come back and we're
gonna get this tomorrow. I'm not happy about the lodge ball,
to be honest. The fielder's kind of being his own umpire, right,
why not just go grab the ball?

Speaker 6 (01:15:44):
Honestly, I thought that was kind of you know, excuse
my friend BS, well, you know what.

Speaker 5 (01:15:48):
Rules are rules.

Speaker 2 (01:15:49):
They reviewed the play. The yunce called it, what can
you do? Right.

Speaker 7 (01:15:53):
As fans, we can only cheer them.

Speaker 1 (01:15:54):
On before we get Jonas's analysis on that. We will
tell you that sm you just made the Feeld goal.
So SMU and Miami tied to twenty with twenty five
seconds left in the fourth. But now, senior international relations
analyst Jonas knox Barger was safe.

Speaker 2 (01:16:10):
Huh. But I think Barcher was closer to touching first
than he was second. I'm that throwback. My favorite part.

Speaker 1 (01:16:19):
My favorite part of that was the guy, the other
guy saying, you know, pardon my French, but that was bs. Yeah,
that was very That was Canadian profanity there.

Speaker 2 (01:16:29):
That's a that's a radio professional if I've ever heard one. FCC.
FCC is not getting his money. Here's the other part
of the too, the life.

Speaker 1 (01:16:37):
He wouldn't be subjected to the FCC because he's in
Canada whatever the Canadian equivalent ofc is.

Speaker 2 (01:16:42):
Well, no, he did.

Speaker 1 (01:16:44):
That's the thing. That was Canadian swearing.

Speaker 2 (01:16:47):
The large the lodged ball in the bottom of the wall,
like people like, oh my god, I've never seen that before. Dude,
watch a Cubs game. Okay, I've been watching the Cubs
my entire life. Let me tell you something, holy cow,
the IVY abducts baseballs, Okay, like if if a ball
gets near like players know that going into Wrigley, if

(01:17:09):
there's if there's a ball close from the track to
the IVY layoff, because that might turn into a ground
rule double. Like it's just like, so this idea that
that had some sort I understand key moment, bad luck whatever,
Stop bitching. We got a game seven.

Speaker 1 (01:17:24):
And by the way, we have Canadian FCC update. The
Canadian equivalent of the FCC is the c R T
T C.

Speaker 7 (01:17:33):
Back to you.

Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
Wow, yeah, have you ever heard of t O l hs?
You ever heard of that? It's Louisiana Hot Sauce, vinegar
and salt wings, not Jo Burger's hit any tailgate food
with the bold handcrafted flavor of the original Louisiana Hot Sauce.
That's Louisiana Hot by you some all right? Coming up

(01:18:38):
all the insults from today's show. At Jonas Knox Show
is where you can find that. On Instagram, that's at
Jonas Knox Show. But right now it's time for this.

Speaker 5 (01:18:49):
Hey lock it, let's notch it now.

Speaker 2 (01:18:53):
Knoxlocks and away we go. As we look back on
last week, we had the Texas minus one and a
half against the forty nine ers. It was sound handicapping.
If you ask me, I basically just said, I don't
know why I like this game. I'm just gonna take
Houston minus to point and a half that one Giants
Eagles Philly minus seven. The Giants got banged up. It

(01:19:15):
was bad for New York, but it was a revenge
spot for Philly after losing a couple of weeks prior.
I took the Eagles minus seven. We won there, and
then listen through one half a play Steelers plus three
really felt like a great pick. And then the second
half happened, and then it turned into what it turned into,
and Jordan Love and the Packers dominated Pittsburgh down the stretch.

(01:19:35):
So we lost that one, two and one last week,
thirteen and eleven on the year, So now it's time
for this week. Falcons said, Patriots, I'm taking Atlanta. Michael
Pennix Junior is back, Atlanta's getting healthier, and they're getting
five and a half points on the road against the Patriots.
I've been as impressed with the Patriots as anybody else,

(01:19:55):
but in this spot, I'll take Atlanta getting that many points.
She said, bit I'm gonna take Buffalo, Liz. I've been
pounding the table that the Chiefs are back. Patrick Mahomes
is back, But in this spot, I think the Bills
in the regular season never really concern me against the Chiefs.
It's always in the postseason. In those big games. I'll
take Buffalo at home and they're getting two points. Seahawks

(01:20:19):
at Commanders. Jaden Daniels is back. Terry mclaurin's out, But
I think in this spot the Seahawks nine game road
winning streak comes to an end. But even if it doesn't,
just don't lose by more than three. If you're Washington,
I'll take the Commanders plus three and that is your
Week nine edition of Knox Locks. This has been a
fun one for Isaac Glow and Cron for Iowa, Sam,
