Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Hey babe, let me
call you right back. The show starting, and Brady was
out drinking with Charlie Weiss all day, so I don't
know which type of shape he's gonna be, and so
gott I'll call you back after the show. Jonas knocks
Brady Quinn here Fox Sports Radio, as we come to
you alive from the Geico Fox Sports Radio studios. Or

Quote my man, golfer extraordinaire, Brady Quinn, what's the hell happening? Man?
Wish that was the case. But this is one of
the first rounds I had all year supporting Charlie Weiss's
charity foundations. Also Dwight Stevenson is as well, but they've
got a couple initiatives they've got going on. Charlie obviously

(00:43):
have a has a daughter with special needs, so that's
what his foundation really goes towards. Hannah and friends, his
daughter's names Hannah, and Dwight Stevenson obviously is trying to
help youth who are kind of at risk. Um, you know,
and of of you know, just helping him out, kind
of having a better opportunity for you have a higher education,
things of that nature. So you know, overall, great event,
had a great time. Always fun to do that kind

(01:05):
of stuff. But man, I gotta tell you, it is
embarrassing when like you're you're a celebrity, right, so some
group pays to be with you, and when you have
not golfed in a while, and like you're not with
good golfers, which fortunately today I was. I was with
a good group, but it doesn't mean they're always gonna
hit good shots and their pressure is on you, and
if you don't deliver, it is one of the most

(01:26):
deflating things ever because like if like if you're starting
and playing a football game, right, and let's say you
know it's a clutch moment, last second game, you're trying
to deliver, You're trying to drive your team down the field.
Let's say it doesn't work out, right, you go in
the locker room, shower up, talk to the media, talk
to your team, whatever, and you go home. This could
happen on the first, second, third hole, and you might

(01:47):
have fifteen more holes. You gotta play with these guys
where you're continuing to let them down. So that's where
like it's it's one of the tougher things to do.
If you're not a good golfer, you don't have the
opportunity to play a lot. And don't you feel like
you got to like everybody's in competition with you? Because
it's such a feather in the cap to say, you know,
Brady Quinn, heck of a quarterback, hell of a radio host,

(02:08):
guy stinks at golf. I I buried him on the
course yesterday. Like you feel like you're always in competition.
That's why I never tell people what I do for
a living. Whenever I meet him for the first time,
I just make something up. I just so, what's your
typical goats? Because you know how it is. I don't
care what you are, who you do. If you make
something up you, if you make up a lie, you
have a go to for whatever that scenario is. What's yours? Well?

(02:30):
I mean, back in in my single days when I
was dating, I used to go a professional tennis player. Um,
that was one that I went that I went with
several times. Your facial hair is a dead giveaway for
tis player. Yeah, but you know I'm in between. I'm
back in the day. I made up a story that
uh that I had that I was a red shirt

(02:50):
at Duke as a basketball player, but I was rehabbing
an injury, which is why I was at some party
in Santa Barbara one time. I mean, just you name it.
I mean, there's there's a there's a toolbox full of
stuff that I can go to at any moment in
Joonas househaul are you six to? I mean, is that
really that believable? Hey, when people are hammered, they'll believe anything.
They'll believe anything. I could walk up to a group

(03:12):
of guys at a party at a frat somewhere and
tell them I'm Rue Paul and they would believe me
so and anything is possible when the booze are flowing.
But listen, you know, you just people are always in
competition with you though, you know, like it's so. I
would imagine although you didn't feel good about how you
performed on the course, there was probably somebody there who
was like, yeah, it was so much better than Brady Quinn.
And they're bragging all their friends. So quite possibly the

(03:36):
group I play with was actually awesome, really good group
of guys up from the Northeast area. My wife's from Boston.
They actually, uh they worked down in Rhode Island, but
a lot of them live up in Boston. Um, so
a good group of guys. Like seriously, it wasn't necessarily
like that. Maybe they're saying that now, I don't know.
Although they used a little bit of my shots, a
little bit of everyone's shots. It was a pretty good group.

(03:56):
So all in all, great day, a lot of money
raised um for for Charlie White's foundation as well as
Dwight Stevenson's UM. And I'm not gonna say, I can't
say what course we play that because it's gonna it's
a little bit controversial because you know how it gets
what's controversial. It's like Charlie weis is doing a good thing.
It's for charity, it's for his daughter, He's raising a

(04:16):
ton of cash, exactly. That's the issue, right. But but
the second you mentioned trump um and it was on
his right, all of a sudden, all of a sudden,
people have an issue with it. UM So unfortunately, uh,
you know that has to like you know, you can't
talk about it. But yeah, it's weird how one word

(04:38):
changes the entire landscape of a of a radio show,
isn't it? You know us though? Is our caddy? Because
we you know, every group's assigned a caddy, even though
you're still in cards. And he's like, yeah, Trump plays
out here, and he goes, yeah, he's uh, it's interesting.
He's like the only thing I'll say that this young
man said was he goes, he's not as good as
a golfer as what was what he says? He goes
that that's for sure? Yea, Now it's um. Well, listen, Yeah,

(05:01):
you had a good day. Do you get it? An
early start time? When when will you start to fade
during the show? We talk an hour three? When your
eyes start to shut down and you're going to shut download?
What are we talking about? Will you power through here?
Do you have coffee with you? Are you ready to rock?
You know I've got I've got a nice cup of
coffee with me. I'll make another one if I have to,
But I'm gonna be I'm gonna be good to go
because guess what we got the All Star Game? Oh man,

(05:23):
let me tell you later, do you poff? I got
news for you? Man? If you want to rank one
of the biggest waste of time on the sports calendar.
It's the NBA All Star Game. Wow, what a bad game?
Are you watching the NBA tip off show right now
with Jamie Foxx? Is that Jamie Foxx? That is Jamie Foxx,

(05:44):
And it's guys who appear to be dancing around with
with what could only be described as it's like a
pony on a stick. I don't know what that's called.
Well that that's called Thursday night for me. But um
let's so. So here's here's my takeaway, Bobo's thunder if
you know what, well, here's my here's my problem with
Jamie fox So Jamie fox is at right now, he's
he's dressed as a cowboy from the waist up, and

(06:06):
he's dressed casual from the waist down. If you're gonna
do it, go all the way out, all right. We're not.
We're not. We're not cutting things in half here, Like,
go all the way out. If you're gonna dress like
a cowboy and you want to look like you're gonna
go cow tipping later on, then dress all the way out.
Come on, man, like I'm talking spurs, I'm talking chaps,
I'm the works. I disagree. All right, here's why. For starters,

(06:29):
Jamie Fox is performing, but he's not leaving now. He's
gonna take this jacket off and the hat and a
scar for whatever else the band dan or whatever else
he's wearing. Of course, so he's gotta make a wardrobe change,
man Like. It's gonna be much easier for him to
make a simple wardrobe change, but taking off what he
has on over top of I'm sure what he's wearing
the rest of the night. And the other issue is,

(06:49):
you know, you do remember the Super Bowl halftime show
with Justin timber Lake. He went all in on that
sort of style and outfit, right, and what was um,
you know what was whatever. We'll talk about after the fact.
They didn't like what he was wearing. They didn't like
the whole get out. They didn't think it really flowed
together and made sense, even those new albums Man in
the Woods and all that, which I kind of thought
it went with that. But anyway, the whole point is this,

(07:12):
if you go all in, it can end up rubbing
some people the wrong way. I showed up in a
leather jack at one time to my brother's bar, and um,
I've you ever have somebody tell you look like someone
and it just you have no response to it. It
just occurs to you. Wow, they couldn't be correct. That
happened with you and me when I when I told
you you looked like the villains from Superman. Okay, well,

(07:33):
I mean we talked about this. I sent you a picture.
You didn't want to acknowledge it. Well listen, now that's
what we'll get into that at our three. And that's
that's fine, Okay, that that is the whole another conversation,
because you pointed out a picture and then I brought
up when the picture was taken, which is at a funeral,
and then you felt bad and I didn't mean to
forgot that again. I I showed up in a leather

(07:57):
jacket to my brother bar and we just got off
on this conversation about great documentaries that are out, and
there was one on George Michael, and we're just talking
and kind of god. He's like, yeah, yeah, George Michael,
there's this documentary. It's on showtime. It's this, it's that,
and and he goes, so, you were so inspired by
the documentary that you dressed up like him tonight. And

(08:17):
I Froze. I went into a state of shock because
it occurred right then and there. I looked exactly like
George Michael. I've never I've never felt more bodied in
my life, like what just happened. So Jamie Fox, listen,
You're not alone. Man. We all make fashion mistakes. Noah,
no harm, no foul, We've all done it from one
point to another. Um, let me ask you this, So,

(08:38):
Brady Quinn, did you get anything from this All Star Game?
No is an acceptable answer. Yeah no, because there's there's
there's really nothing on the line and no one plays defense.
It's not competitive. I personally, I don't really enjoy it.
I used to enjoy the dunk contest, and I know
we're gonna talk about that a little bit later on,
but that's even lost a lot of its luster. And

(09:00):
think it's it's lost some creativity. And I don't know
if you want to put that blame on the people
who put on the dunk contest or the dunkers themselves
of not being a come with something more. Um, I mean,
are we hitting a sticking point? Is this is this
kind of like running the hundred meters where you kind
of recall there was a period of time where guys
will be able to break a world record, and then
they figured out, are is it doping? Is it guys

(09:22):
taking steroids? Are they cheating? Is something else or or
a humans just evolving that much more? And then you
kind of figure out, no, they were just taking some steroids.
And and then we kind of settled back into a plateau.
Is this is this like the plateau of the dunk contest?
I don't know. Well, first of all, can you dunk?
Have you ever been able to dunk a basketball? Yeah? Yeah?
I love how you say yeah, like that's a natural thing. Yeah,

(09:44):
six four dude, Like it's not. You know, I'm I'm
a taller guy, so i'd hope i'd be able to well, listen,
you've got two three inches on me. Uh and never
mind where it counts. Yeah yeah, okay, but but now,
but I'm talking about the heights as well too. Um
yeah he does. Um. So so when you say like, oh,
of course I can dunk, that's not a normal thing, man. Okay,

(10:04):
because I don't know if you knew this or not.
All right, I'm gonna spell everybody. I'm just fill everybody
in on this. Brady and I are white. Okay, So
the fact that the fact that he can dunk is
a huge revelation, Like that is a are we talking
one hand? Can you go two hands? What kind of
dunk would you do? Yeah? I could do both? Yeah,
And I was actually, you know, some guys are better

(10:27):
like elevating with the with the ball, like getting a
running start. I was actually okay, kind of just you know,
one step and and almost like a vertical jump. And
then other guys are better, like some guys can dunk
better if they're like bouncing it off like someone's throwing
it up to them or off the backboard. I was
always better doing that. I was never good like carrying
the basketball with me and then doing a certain type
of dunk. That was our pre show meeting. Why that

(10:52):
was just an awkward drive. I have no idea. Listen,
for some reason, uh, Bobo's phone is plugged into the
board here and when people send him voice messages, they
just pop up on the air. I have no idea
that people he hangs out with. All I know is
the voice of Crenshaw. Listen. I'm just here to help,
just here to do a radio show, all right, Brady
Quinn Jonas knocks here Fox Sports Radio as we come

(11:13):
to Alive from the Geico Fox Sports Radio Studios. Up next,
Brady and I. Okay, Brady and I will solve a
major problem going on in the world of sports. This
is a huge issue. We are going to fix it
next year on FSR. The song makes you want to
just pack a horseshoe of Copenhagen, Just just a horseshoe

(11:35):
about me for the last few minutes top and bottom
horseshoe of Copenhagen listening to Leonard skinnerd So you call
it a horseshoe, Yeah, it's a horseshoe. Where I'm from,
people would call like a big big shoe or a
big dip hog's leg. I'm just telling you, man, I
mean that's that's when you get into like rule parts

(11:55):
of Ohio. That's what they would refer to it as.
Come on, you can't you can't drop a name like
that on this show and expected to just go We're
just gonna leave that. They're really like a hog's leg.
What does a hogs leg have to do with chewing tobacco? Like?
It's well, first off, you're talking about horseshoe. I'm not
where you're going with that, but what well, I'm just saying,

(12:17):
like the top and bottom it wraps around like a horseshoe, Like,
that's that's what dogs leg. We're like, there's a little
bit of a faint where you can kind of see
like where the impression starts, and then it's a big
wad of chew. So it's kind of starts off skinny,
much like a pig leg, and as it gets wider
and it gets you know, like a big bowl in
the side of your mouth, hogs like. We'll have more

(12:39):
continued trough talk with Brady Quinn coming up later on
in the show, as he continues to be inappropriate here
on a Sunday night. Um, all right, so Brady Quinn
Jonas knocks here Fox Sports Radio from the Geico Fox
Sports Radio Studios. I gotta I'm gonna run a theory.
But so they're doing the introductions in the NBA All
Star Game. Neat, Um, I've got a theory that I
want to run by you, an idea because listen, we

(13:02):
like to We tried to offer some changes to the
Pro Bowl, you know, we we offered some ideas and
how you could change and kind of spice up the
Pro Bowl, and I thought we hit him out of
the park. If you if you'd like us to repeat
those tough balls, go get it on the podcast whenever
we did it. Yeah, And can I just ask you
this after watching the Pro Bowl? Did did you feel
like it doesn't need to be tweaked? I mean, did

(13:24):
you feel like maybe our suggestions would have helped them
make it have a better product. I gotta be honest
with you, man, the Pro Bowl was just kind of
like background noise, Like I don't even like, I don't
even remember one single moment from the game, like be
truthful with you. Are we on the air? I remember
Harrison Smith? Yeah, of course you douse, that's true. And
I did see I did see Harry today. But uh

(13:46):
I remember thinking to myself that guy was at all
pro and he wasn't a first ballot Pro Bowler. Did
your back all right? Uh? No, it actually is locked
up right now? I was gonna say, because of all
the all these names you dropped in the first two segments,
I was wondering if your back was hurt. Charlie Weiss
and Harry Smithez alright, so, um, so I want to

(14:13):
propose some ideas to help change. Right. So Adam Silver,
the commissioner of the NBA, he was speaking on Saturday,
and he talked about potential playoff changes that they're going
to try and make some changes to the NBA playoffs.
Your was Commissioner Adam Silver. When we get to the playoffs,
should we be soon were taking either the best sixteen

(14:34):
teams or even if we go eight from the West,
eight from the East, seating one through sixteen going into
the into the playoffs. And that is something that has
gotten serious attention, not not just recently, but over the
last few years that the league office. The obstacle has
traveled and it's it's not tradition in my mind at least,
it's that as we've added next year week to the
regular season, as we've tried to reduce the number of

(14:54):
back to backs, that we are concerned about teams criss
crossing the country in the first round. Okay, So that
was Adam Silver, the commissioner, very confusing all over the place, travel, seeding,
kind all all sorts of just just weird sort of thoughts.
And so everybody looked it and said, oh man, well
that means you're it's gonna be reseeding and all this,
and you know it's a really easy fix. Okay, this

(15:17):
is this is an easy fix. And it's like Adam
Silver is overlooking the most obvious thing to do. You've
lived with roommates, right, you've lived with Okay, you ever
had it to where like the sink is piling up
with dishes and you've got to like maneuver around the
dishes to wash your hands, when the solution is just
wash the dishes. Yeah, And I always ended up being

(15:37):
the guy to do that. So unfortunately, like I was,
I was the poor bastard. He would just be like,
you know what, I'm tired of this. I'm gonna wash
him so I don't have to worry about this. And
look at this. Okay, So if Adam Silver wants to
just clean the dishes in the sink instead of maneuvering
around him to try and wash his hands, I got
an easy solution for you, real easy, make shorter series. Okay,

(15:57):
if you're tired of of the product and the uneven matchups,
why don't we spice things up a little bit. First
round is three games, second round is the best of five,
and the conference finals in the NBA finals are best
of seven. Problem solved. Now, all of a sudden, you've
got incentive don't want to watch some of these games.
And if you're a team like that's fighting for an
eight seed and your two spots out and you're trying

(16:18):
to decide whether or not you want to tank to
get into the lottery or you want to make a
playoff run. Now, all of a sudden, all you gotta
do is win two games and you win the first
round of your playoffs. I know that they'll never do
this because of the money that's involved. But he's like
talking about all these other these other ideas on on
moving teams around, and it's not really by conference easy fixed. Man,

(16:38):
the playoffs stink up until the conference finals in the finals.
So let's speed things up and let's make it a
little bit more dangerous for the top seeds. It's a
novel idea. I just it's not gonna happen. No, I
know it's not um and that's and that's the hard
part is you'd like to see that because you'd like
to see there be more on the line. And here's
the other thing besides making those games more dramatic, because
they're more meaningful. You don't have as many you can

(17:00):
afford to really lose one in particularly the three game series,
which I love. By the way, this is this might
be one of your best ideas. The other issue is,
you know, you maybe you don't see players sit out
at the end of the season for as many games
to rest up for the playoffs because now those series
are shorter, and maybe all of a sudden becomes a
little bit more meaningful when you've got a shorter series,

(17:21):
and if you're the home team, you have home court advantage,
right because now all of a sudden, you only get
two shots to play home one on the road. You know,
there's it's not as long as a series. You don't
have the ability to try to make a run. It's
it's pretty much win or go home, or win best
two out of three and and that's and that's it.
I mean, it's a pretty short deal. So I actually
like that. I think maybe they're not gonna have to
deal with what we dealt with at the end of

(17:42):
last season. And don't remember Adam Silver talking about the
fact that they need to do something to mandate so
you know, some of the stars players won't be sitting
out in regular season games for the end of the
season because fans buy tickets and they come there just
to see these stars play, and then all of a
sudden they're not in the lineup. Well, this would kind
of circumvent that. Here's here's a perfect scenario you for you, Okay,
So imagine you're watching right now. If the playoffs started today,

(18:03):
You've got a two seven matchup in the Western Conference.
You've got Golden State playing Portland. Portland's just beat Golden
State less than a week ago, just beat him and
looked really good at doing so. So all of a sudden,
if Portland's imagine that is the opening game of a
three game series. Now, all of a sudden, Golden State
is sitting there with their backs against the wall in

(18:26):
game two. Like, It's completely changes the game on on
tanking going into the playoffs, on the the odds of
a team beating another team. It's why the NFL always
that it always has an advantage in the playoffs. We
were on the air last year during the NBA playoffs, Brady,
the first month and a half, We're garbage. I mean,
nobody cared. We all knew what the finals were gonna
be nobody gave a rip. And then once we got

(18:47):
to the finals there it wasn't everything it lived up
to be was done in five games. Like the NFL
has is more like March madness than than say the
NBA is. Because in the NFL, I mean, you have
a bad half, your season's over, you know. Like if
the Patriots and Eagles played each other seven times, I
would I would I would bet on the on the
Patriots to win that game, that you win four out

(19:08):
of those seven games, but that didn't happen. They only
played once, and now Philly celebrating a Super Bowl and
eating horse droppings off the ground in the streets of Philly.
Like if if you're the NBA the problem, it's an
easy fix. Just spice up the first couple of rounds
of the playoffs and make it a whole better watch.
Here's the other issue with trying to just get rid

(19:28):
of essentially conferences at that point and doing a one
through sixteen seating where you get the top teams kind
of you know, playing off from there. Here's the only
issue I have with that is, you know, then you're
kind of making the regular season meaningless, Like if you're
all of a sudden gonna get rid of conferences when
it comes to the playoffs and just re rank them
one through sixteen and then and then go through a
playoff format from there. Aside from the travel and having

(19:50):
teams to have to, you know, potentially fly across the
country and all that um, which which won't really play
into the ability to rest and everything else, you're also
looking at the fact that it of values the regular
season and to values the fact that you know, if
you're in the East right now, you have a much
easier time playing regular season games than you do in
the West. I mean, let's just be honest. It's been
that way for a little while. That doesn't mean it's

(20:12):
always the case. And look, when I grew up, it
was the East. You know what, The Chicago Bulls reigned
supreme most Michael Jordan's and that was the team that
you had to be in the East was much tougher.
It doesn't matter if it was the Calves, the Pistons,
you know, the Knicks at that point in time too.
You get throw one a bunch of teams in the conversation.
But the East back then, at one point in my childhood,

(20:32):
dominated the West, and then it kind of flipped back over.
Then you saw the Lakers kind of going to run.
Then you saw the Celtics have some success as well
as the Pistons. So this goes back and forth. I
kind of hate when we look into a window of
time and we all of a sudden say we need
to make a change for change of sake, because people
are unhappy with how the result was this year in
the past couple of years. What they need to do

(20:52):
is figuring out a way of not allowing teams to
put together a super team like the Golden State Warriors
have right now. I mean that that's my big issue
with all of it, because if Golden State couldn't have
as many All Stars as they have on their squad,
you know, you're probably looking at a Western conference that's
much more competitive, and the NBA that you're not looking at.
You know, both sides saying, I think we can predict,

(21:13):
you know, who's gonna be the team's playing in the
NBA Finals this season. What's the point of even watching
in the regular season? All Right? I have a follow
up to that because I know exactly where you're going
with that, and I think this is also a solution
for the NBA. Listen, we're just solving problems. Here's what
we do. I mean, consider us doctors. Okay, we're the
sports talk to what we all are, right, there's an issue.
There's a problem. If the federal funds are not sent

(21:33):
our away, they send to other people. We should be
getting them. But either way, we come up with solutions.
And by the way, this guy sent a tweet in
earlier that said, typical, you're only making fun of the
NBA All Star Game because because ESPN has it and
because Fox doesn't. What duh, duh? Come watching? I'm watching
t NT right now. So is you know that that's

(21:56):
another another outlet you can you can get the nb
AL start getting listen. We're not here to promote other shows.
There is one show on the air from a to
eleven pm Eastern time, five d eight Pacific time, two
to five Hawaii time, and uh some other time in
Hong Kong, and it's this show here with Knox and Quinn.
What does it mean when Geico says just fifteen minutes
could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance.

(22:17):
I mean you probably should have gone to Geico dot
com fifteen minutes ago. We will continue to uh, we're look,
we're surgeons here. We're gonna fix a major issue in
the world of sports. We're doing more that next. But
for all the latest from around the world of sports.
Steve to Seger just a few minutes away from tip
off of the NBA All Star Game for the singing
the national anthem right now in l A, it's gonna
be Team Lebron against Team Steph. And for Steph Curry squad,

(22:39):
it's not bad. It doesn't look as good on paper
as Lebron's team with Kevin Duran and Russell Westbrook and
the rest, but Curry does have starting James Harden, Johanna
Seutennant Gumbo, Demard Rose, and Joel Embiid, and off the
bench for Curry, Clay Thomps and Draymond Green, Damian Lillard,
Carl Anthony Towns, and others. Each winning team member now
gets a hundred thousand dollars. Tonight's losers still get at

(23:00):

thanks Steve Jonas knocks Brady Quinny or Fox Sports Radio
Company Alive from the Geico Fox Sports Radio Studios. It's
easy to stay a fifteen center. More on Carn't You're
with Geico? Go to Geico dot com call eight under
nine four seven otto. The only hard part figuring out

(24:04):
which way is easier? All right, So Brady, I want
to I want to continue with this as we await
the waste of time that is the All Star Game. Um,
so we we are. We're going to try and and
fix a solution. We're coming up with a solution to
fix a problem that the NBA has. So Adam Silver
proposes this playoff format change and they're considering it, and
I just think that, Listen, it's really easy. Three, five, seven, seven.

(24:27):
That's the series in the opening round of the playoffs.
It's three. Second round is five, seven and seven in
the conference finals in the finals. Now to your point,
you were talking about how the league is real top heavy,
right that they've got these super teams. Unfortunately, it's out
of place now to where that's just kind of the thing,
and teams, for right or wrong, teams have just sort

(24:50):
of figured out that, hey, if we can control where
we want to play and who we want to play with,
let's take the power and let's run with it. So
to me, this would act really help the NBA and
their cause because of all of a sudden, you're a
top heavy team and you lose the first game of
that opening round and you're down one nothing and you
only need one more to win that game. Now that

(25:11):
second games becomes becomes watchable. Like I there were times,
and I'll be honest because we're not on the areat
so I can say this. I'm not going to be
judged because we're not on the air. But there was
an opening round playoffs series a couple of years ago.
I think it was Raptors Pacers and it was on
a Tuesday night. I watched Deadliest Catch on Discovery Channel instead. Okay,

(25:32):
Deadliest Catch where it seems like every guy on the
ship takes turns being a drug addict. Okay, I watched
that over the opening round of of an NBA playoff series. Like,
these games aren't watchable early on, they're tough. Um And
And I had this conversation with a buddy and I
he used to live down in South Florida where I live,

(25:52):
and I'm moving away. Um so I don't get to
enjoy and watching NBA playoff games with them anymore. But
what I do recall is this, typically for the first
round we would get hammered because it was unwatchable. They
just weren't competitive. So we order to be able to
get through the game itself. We would just get hammered
and then move on to the next round. But that

(26:15):
was that was my own personal expense. Can we can
we keep it here real quick? Okay, I just want
to put everything on holl because you dropped it. It's
like that on the air, and we needed we need
to dive in a little deeper. Okay, set the scene.
What are we drinking, what are we wearing? Curse words,
you name it. What is going on there? Set the
scene for us? Well, this particular friend, his name is Rush,

(26:36):
and Rush happens to be one of my more like
intellectual stimulating type people. So you know, he can uh
philosopher size a bunch of different a bunch of different things.
It could be anything from what we're talking about now
with solutions to the playoff system which we had talked
about before sometimes or anything else. You know. I could
be you know, in game strategy right and why it's

(26:57):
so hard to stop the Golden State Warriors. Typically depends.
It could be anything from Scotch two beers to whatever
I mean. I I do not Um, I don't really
care when it comes to that. It just depends on
what kind of the mood was um and would be
curse words of course, because you know, typically to make
the game more interesting. And you know this, Jonas, because

(27:18):
you're a bit of a degenerate gambler. That you're there
may not be true, but but the truth of the
matter is you might lay we might lay some bets down. Um,
so that was what kind of an encompassed the night. Uh.
And then typically my wife, we've got a TV that's outside,
my wife would like kick us outside because we'd be
too rowdy, we'd be a little bit too noisy and
everything else depending on how the game went. So when

(27:40):
she yelled at you, did she ever Boston accent? U
s only only if she's shrinking, then I'll knock it
off a little bit. Yeah. I can't even say what
she would say because there's some choice of words in there.
But oh man, but yeah. But the point being, early
on in the NBA playoffs, there's no reason to watch.

(28:02):
I mean there really is, and I mean there's an
occasional four or five matchup that's interesting. I just think
and I know that this all goes back to money.
And and if you had three, five, seven, and seven,
you're basically getting rid of six games each series. And
that's a lot of money that flows through. But isn't
the league making a lot of money already? And and
I just I think that they've got to They've got

(28:22):
to look at it and realize, you've got to create
a sense of urgency, Like that's what what March Madness
has that a lot of other sports, don't you create
a sense of urgency. Like the pro to the NBA
playoff format the way it is that if if you're
into true competition, if you're one of those people that says,
I want the best person to win, best guy, best woman,
best team, whatever, Like the current format in the NBA

(28:43):
playoffs is the best team wins every time because you've
got to beat somebody four out of seven four times.
So so in that regard, it's perfect and it makes
all the sense in the world. But come on, man, Like,
if you're gonna embrace the top heavy league, you need
to start adjusting some of the way you look at
this postseason in And I think you just need to
limit the opening rounds. I really do. I'm with you

(29:03):
on that. I just think it's it's a hard sell
to leagues when TV networks are willing to pay up
the money. Um for the additional game that's meaningless, right,
I mean you're talking about going from times. It's a
little bit different in your case because you're making it
a three game series, um, you know for the first round, right,
so you may only get two games, and it's not
that difference if it was if they moved into a

(29:24):
five game series, right, and it was it was the
best of five. You can only get one more game, right,
and it still might be a two oh or if
it was a five game series three oh right, um,
And and that that's still at risk for for some
of the TV networks that may work out that way.
And if you go we'll go back to what was
it last year's um or you know, I mean you
can look through the the you know history at the

(29:46):
first round the NBA playoffs. It's not competitive there two
months long. It's two months of NBA playoff basketball. It's like, man,
come on, like and people get worked. Also, I think
it's it makes a lot of people that do sports
radio and sports TV like you you run less of
a risk of sounding dumb if you lower the number

(30:07):
of games in the opening rounds because now because before
I mean a team would lose and it would be
tied one one and be like, oh my god. Remember
when we were on the air when Avery Bradley hit
some bounce in three and the Celtics one game three
I think it was in the Eastern Conference Finals and look,
and the conversation all over sports radio on TV the
next day was, Oh, what a big win for Boston.

(30:27):
Does that mean that they've got a shot in the series. Um, yes,
you over there, Mr Knox, No, that would mean that
they don't have a shot. Okay, stop over reacting. It's
one game out of seven. It doesn't mean anything but
all of a sudden, if it's a five game series
or a three game series or something like that, one
game actually has an impact on on the long But
it's my only other question to you, because there's two

(30:49):
ways of looking at it. Right now, you have what
sixteen teams? Yes, Um, do you think all sixteen teams
are are always deserving? I think there's probably you can
make the case for eight for sure, and there's that
bottom half eight. I don't know that there's any that
you see and you say they're on a Cinderella run,
right because you're playing series. I think the better team

(31:09):
typically ends up winning out in the end. It's very
seldom that you see a team get high. So my
point would would also be if you're upset about it
being a two month process because you have six teen
teams and you're playing best of seven series, then the
alternative that that would be cut in half. Have the
top four teams from each conference go and you have

(31:30):
them playoff, and there you have it. You don't need
the additional teams because then it makes the math cleaner
as far as how they would move from. You know, again,
the conference um will be conference semifinals and then they
go to the conference finals and they play off for
the NBA Finals and the celebrity and saying what you're
trying to accomplish, there's the same thing, right, You shorten

(31:52):
the window of time that you're having the NBA Playoffs,
you're cutting off the fat and you're actually getting to
the leaner teams that have more of a legitimate shot
of winning the NBA Finals. Like I know, it sounds
a little bit absurd because we're so accustomed to seeing
sixteen and we always think more is better. I just
don't think more is better right now in the NBA. Now,
the hard part is, then you'd have to maybe look

(32:12):
at all, right, are we doing it? You know that
the top four teams from from each conference, right, or
are we gonna sit there and say no, it should
be the top eight teams based on the regular season record.
But that still goes all the way back to the
initial conversation. What's the point of having conferences then? Right?
If that's how you're gonna end up creating the playoffs
scenario once you get there. What's the point of having

(32:33):
conferences if you've got one side that's traditionally weaker than
the other, at least the East is compared to the
West in recent history, and then all of a sudden
you're gonna change that once to get the playoffs. Brady Quinn,
Jonas Knox Here, Fox Sports Radio Company Alive from the
Get Go Fox Sports Radio Studios Up next year on
Fox Sports Radio, there is a surprising rumor about an

(32:53):
NFL team and their pursuit of a quarterback who's a
free agent. We'll tell you who that is next year.
On FS are the Stone Tumble Pilots, Ah, there's this
just oh. I will be playing the Black Panther soundtrack
for the rest of the day. Is Lamar. Yeah, can

(33:15):
we give Kendrick Lamar credit and not just like credit
the soundtrack? Hold on, say is Kendrick Lamar? Have you
ever seen him in person? Bobo? Have you ever seen
it like a picture of him? Because I have a
conspiracy theory on Kendrick Lamar. Okay, I think you have
a conspiracy theory on pretty much everything. You bet your
ask man when when it's when it's NFL offseason, you

(33:37):
got to we're trying to feel content here, um, And
I will tell you what that conspiracy theory is after
I let you know that we have great news. There's
a quick way you could save money. Switch to Geico.
Go to Geico dot com. In fifteen minutes, you could
say fifteen percent or more on car insurance. I think
that Kendrick Lamar and again me being the voice of
Crenshaw Boulevard, I think that Kendrick Lamar, he isn't an

(34:00):
actual real person. I think it's a joint. It's a
joint project, a joint musical project featuring Kendrick Perkins, former
Boston Celtic and Lamar Odom former drug addict. That's what
I think. You know that, But that Jonas I you

(34:23):
know that you only see walk right now, Don't make
me see walk, Brady Quinn, How are you doing this,
Evening Broucht. This is just an awkward segment. Voice of
Crunchot Bolivar Star Game. James Harden has the ball. Yeah,
by the way, James Harden sneaky porn name. Alright, um

(34:44):
here on Fox Sports Radio, we continue on here. Um,
all right, So, Brady Quinn, I want to ask you
about a J. McCarron, right because I had no idea
that a J. McCarron was a top tier, top tier,
top flight quarterback. I had no idea, no all of us.
Sudden I saw that a J. McCarron won his grievance
earlier this week, and a J. McCarron is going to

(35:04):
be a free agent quarterback, And now the latest rumor
is that the Minnesota Vikings are going to be in
hot pursuit of a J. McCarron. What am I missing
here about a J. Mccairn A lot? And I think
I'm I'm missing a lot too, because look in two
thousand and fifteen, when a J. Mc karen actually started
three games because he's played sparingly, sparingly since then, he

(35:27):
only had fourteen pass attempts in the past two years,
So keep that in mind. Like for all the people
who want to get nuts about him, because his touchdown
interception ratio looked good that year and you thought he
played pretty well, guess what, so did Andy Dalton like
that Bengals team was far different or far removed from

(35:47):
where they are today and what Dalton has been surrounded
by offensively to protect him as well as some the playmakers.
Um so I really feel like that two and one record,
the sixties, six completion percentage, six touchdowns, the two interceptions,
like that all to me was as much of a
product of what was around him than anything else. And

(36:08):
it's not a knock on agent mccarren. We just haven't
seen him enough. I mean, are you really willing to
invest a significant amount of money in a quarterback who's
got a hundred and thirty three pass attempts in his
career and he hasn't started a game, mind you, hasn't
started a game in three years, But all of a
sudden you think he's the next hot commodity. I mean,
there's a reason why he was about a fifth round

(36:30):
pick when he was drafted. I I think if if
people are smart, and I think Rick Spielman really is.
He's the general manager of the Minnesota Vikings. He does
a tremendous job. I think he's smart, and I don't
think he's gonna look at um, you know what he's
done in the NFL and and really trump what he
came from when he was in Alabama, because as as

(36:51):
successful as a team was in Alabama, it was a
scenario again of AJ mccariren being surrounded by talent like
number one recruiting classes year after year, then able to
have that success. And I gotta be honest, man, I'm
I'm thinking about all the quarterbacks that were on Minnesota's roster,
between Bradford and Keenum and Teddy Bridgewater. I don't know

(37:12):
that that all of those guys aren't better than a J.
McCarron or better options. So like, why would you Like,
I can understand if you're going to make a run
for a big time quarterback or something like that, but
it's a J McCarn Like, what is I don't I
don't know, Like that scene that seems strange to me,
doesn't seem like it adds up, No, nothing, adds up
about it. I mean, if you're gonna take one of
those quarterbacks, would you not offer Case Keenum a pretty

(37:34):
nice contract over Yeah, of course over over a J mccarroen,
a hunter. Keep continuity with what you were able to
do this past season. That would make the most sense. Like,
that's the safest bet, right and even if even if
things don't work out, And what they can really do
is they could, you know, put a transition tag on
on case Keenuman. That's what I think they may do
because you know he would he would you know, get

(37:56):
a decent amount of money. I think that be somewh
of million dollars for a one year deal, and then
you can kind of go talk to other teams and
see what his value is. And he could see if
other teams wanted to match the offer of the Minnesota Vikings, Uh,
we're gonna give him and at that point then the
Vikings would have the chance to you know, come back
and give him some more. So, um, that's one route
of doing it if they want to keep case Keenum

(38:16):
instead of just let him become a free agent. But
you know, compared to Bradford and Bridgewater, you know, those
guys both might be better quarterbacks. The problem is the
injury history, and that's where that's too much to necessarily
say you have a lot of faith in either one
of those guys being able to go out there and
play effectively. What's gonna happen with Bradford Man, like he's
this is a weird spot to be in. Is he
gonna get offered a deal by somebody? Um? He I

(38:40):
think he may have to wait and and to be
honest with you, he's made so much money, I don't
think it's gonna matter. Like someone would probably have to
come to him at some point, and he probably has
a number that he's told his agent, Tom Condon, and
it said, hey, i'll be working out you know, that's
who I am. I'll stay in good shape. But if
if it seems interested, here's the asking price. You know,

(39:00):
come Gibby. But it might be like a J Color
type thing where unless you're gonna pay me ten million,
you know, something along those lines, may five eight or whatever.
Maybe I don't know what the number is, but he
might say that to his agent, he said, call me
when that team needs someone. Because we all know quarterbacks
go down. We all know they'll draft a rookie and
all of a sudden he's not ready and they'll need
to bring in a veteran guy like that. I think,
you know, when he's healthy, he could play at a

(39:22):
high level. You know, he showed that, not in this
past season the season before. Unfortunately, it's really been the
health that's Plague's entire career. And you just think about
I don't know, like if if you were to tell
somebody like years from now, they ask you about Sam Bradford, like,
is there is there another quarterback that you can think
of that has been riddled or had more bad luck

(39:44):
when it comes to injuries in Sam Bradford. I mean,
he just never got a brain. And I don't know
if it's Remember hearing something in college where they said
he had that the issue with his shoulder, and it
was like, well, he doesn't know how to fall, right,
he doesn't know how to take a sack. Remember thinking
to myself, well, how the hell you're supposed to take
a sack? Like, who's what you mean? Like, hey, hey,
if you jump off a building land this way, what
how does that work? There is something too, and I

(40:06):
don't know why what it is. It's kind of like
the it factor and quarterbacks that people always talk about
or he has it, but they can't really verbalize what
that is. You know. For some guys, they just like
Russell Wilson. He seems to never take a big hit.
He seems to like fall down and not get hurt.
Other guys from Mo Athletic, they tend to get hurt
for some reason whatever they're scrambling or running around. Brady Quinn,
Jonas Knox here, Fox Sports Radio Company Alive from the

(40:28):
Geico Fox Sports Radio Studios. Up next, there is a
a quarter of another quarterback situation in the NFL that
we've seen before, and we saw it very very recently.
We'll tell you what that is next on fs ARE.
So we got ourselves a uh, it's kind of a
trickle down effect. There's all sorts of things they're gonna
take place, and then it's gonna cause one thing, like
a chain reaction. I guess if you will, that is

(40:50):
happening in the NFL free agent market. We will explain
what that is coming up here in just a couple
of minutes. He is Brady Quinn. I am Jonas Knock.
This is Fox Sports Radio as we come to Alive
from the Geico Fox Sports Radio studios, where it's easy

(41:11):
I'm just gonna waiting to see where you're gonna go next. Um, well, listen, man,
you know this is now. I do want to let
you know that Li've bet Jesus. I have a I
did receive a whisper in the wind. Um, well he
doesn't text. Um, he doesn't. He gambles, and uh he
drinks and uh let's see what else do I do?

(41:32):
And that's pretty much it all. I've bet Jesus. Um
he Uh so he did not text, but I did
receive a whisper in the wind that he will be
making an appearance at the end of this segment. He
has spotted a sporting event that he wants in on,
he feels comfortable with, and he's going to be making
a pick less than ten minutes from now here on
Fox Sports Radio. So I mean, come on, I pray,

(41:53):
I pray that it's gonna be the NBA all start.
I have no idea, man, and not not that Winter Olympics,
whatever events going on right now. I just I hope
it's going to be the NBA All Star and not
the Winter Olympics. Man I, Man, I don't know if
it's just because I'm getting older and your wife's an
Olympian and was she an Olympian once or twice? Once? Okay,

(42:16):
she was regardless of still an Olympian. It's an amazing feat.
Is there sort of a competitive rivalry between the Summer
Olympics and the Winter Olympics because she was a gymnast,
so she was top, top, top, top of the food
chain when it came to to athletics and as far
as jymn go, is there sort of a competition between
the Summer Olympics and what does she look down on

(42:37):
the Winter Olympics? No? No, no, no, she's a little
bit down. But I do think there's a competitiveness in
regards to marketing because that's where a lot of these
athletes make all their money. You don't make much from,
you know, winning the gold medals and everything. Everything comes
after that because the marketing deals that you then sign, right,
So then it becomes the competition between the summer and

(43:00):
winter athletes for the marketing deals. And everyone knows the
summer Olympics are watched much heavily or more heavily compared
to the winner Olympics, and that's just you know, I
think I think it's probably because more people can relate.
Whether or not you think that's accurate or not, that's
kind of my take on it, only because you know,
track and field is something that like everyone runs. Everyone
can look at a hunder meter dash and go, wow,

(43:22):
that guy is really fast or whatever the event may be.
In track and field, it just it feels like it's
a little bit more relatable compared to people who maybe
have never seen a ski slope before in their life
and never been on a set of skis, let alone
a half pipe on a snowboard or anything else. Yeah.
I just there's just some of these events that I
don't get. Man, Like the dudes that walk out in

(43:42):
on skis and they've got a rifle and they're shooting
skeleton is called No, it's not skeletons, I don't know,
but whatever it is. Like, like who who was sitting
around having like half a bottle of Scotch and they're like,
you know, what would be a good event for the
winner Olympics? Oh? I know? One why don't we dress
everybody be up like they're like they're on that movie.
What's that movie inception where they're doing the snow scene

(44:04):
and inception. Let's let's give everybody skis and then let's
take the guns they use at carnivals to blow up
the balloons on top of the clown's mouth, and let's
have them go shoot things in the snow. It's a
great idea. Man, Here, here's a gold medal. How do
you How do you get a sponsor for that? Who
the hell wants in on that event? Maybe a good
company besides that. Yeah, it may be tough sledding, very literally,

(44:29):
very bizarre. Man. Yeah, it's odd, but I find myself
watching it like I'm guilty of that only because it
is the Olympics that I feel like I'm fulfilling some
sort of civic duty to our country by constantly watching
the Olympics when they're ONNG. Well, listen, I mean, I'm
not here to judge. I happen to know somebody who
looked a lot like me, name sounded a lot like me,
and in fact it was such a close resemblance that

(44:51):
I'm pretty sure it was me who live bet the
Japanese women's ice hockey team last Sunday. Okay, so I
am not here to judge anybody I am. I am
speaking from from a place of of of very embarrassing
moments in my life for that event. But but again,
it wasn't me, just somebody looking a lot like me.
Here's the only question that matters. Did you win the bet?
That person win the bet? Of course, of course you started. Listen,

(45:16):
you don't dabble in that racket unless you go in
there and wanting to win. All right, you know you
sign on the dotted line. You're signing a win. You're
not signing to just participate a break. Of course I won.
We'll leave the other events out of it though. Okay,
Brady Quinn, I need to ask you this. We were
talking about a J. Mccaren a reminder again live bet
Jesus coming up about five minutes from now here on
Fox Sports Radio allegedly. Um, we're talking about a J.

(45:38):
Mccaren and just sort of that there's gonna be a
market for him and now he's a free agent and
all this stuff like you know, this kind of remind
me of like do you ever think and I don't
know if we've talked about this, but do you ever
think card L. Jones kind of sits back and goes, Damn,
I should have come out after those three starts, when
I won the Big Ten title game, and I won

(45:59):
the sum My Final, and I won the National Championship.
I really should have come out. Then why did I
go back for another year? Because he kind of exposed
his flaws to where if he would have come out
after those first three games, he would have gotten drafted
higher just based on raw. Potentially you didn't it ever
bothers him. Um, I've never really thought about that, only
because I think, regardless whatever situation, that he was gonna

(46:22):
end up being like he was a fourth round draft
pick in I think when people dug a little bit
deeper this time of year, whether that's through you know,
interviews with him or the combine protas and all, that
they would have exposed some of those flaws. Like those
three games that he had, they were amazing and he
helped him win a national championship. But that doesn't that's

(46:45):
not an indicator of him being anything more of the
NFL level. And I think I trust the talent evaluators
and the scouts of being able to see that. And
I think it would have been too risky at that point,
Like as much as you see him coming back for
another year not playing quite as well and then all
of a sudden getting draft in the fourth round, I
think there would be enough people who are skeptical of
him that weren't going to take him the first, second

(47:06):
or third round. He might have been a fourth round,
could have been fifth, sixth, seventh, who knows. I mean,
think about this, Um, drawn Evans. He had a phenomenal
year for Virginia Tech before last year, and he ended
up you know, coming out early, had a year of
eligibility left kind of similar in the sense of was
a juco guy transferred him, brought Virginia Tech a lot
of success statistically looked really good. And what happened he

(47:27):
went and drafted because people were so scared of trying
to take a project like that on given the lack
of practice time and and he I don't even know
if he made it past like a rookie tryout camp.
And then after that that was hit man. So I
think he made the smart play UM because he at
least assured himself a spot to get drafted and more
time to develop, because you only get one shot at

(47:48):
that and if he wasn't ready after they won the
national championship and he needed some more time to mature,
and which I think he did over the course of
his career. I think that's the smarter, safer play, um it.
Because here's here's why I asked that. So so you know,
he comes to Cardal Jones, decide stay back, he comes back,
and he kind of gets exposed a little bit. So
when you talk about that scouts and you trust the evaluators,

(48:11):
how would they have gone about that? How would they
have have addressed Cardal Jones? If he decided he wanted
to come out, Obviously he'd go to the combine. Maybe
his measurables would be off the charge because he had
a great arm and and they look at him, all
he's an athlete, but he's a raw talent. So would
they put him through such rigorous individual drills when they
got their hands on him that that would be the
make or break on whether or not this guy's career

(48:33):
would be determined and where he would be drafted in?
What round is that? I mean, not necessarily now, but
once you get past the period of the combine and
your pro day, you set up individual workouts and you're
really at the mercy of those teams working you out
as far as what they put you through. So any
sort of drill, anything that they want to do to
try to test you or see your arm strength or

(48:53):
your mobility your football I I mean, I'm not gonna
say it's grueling because it's a quarterback. It's differ and man,
when you watch the lineman, defensive lineman, some of the
stuff to make those guys do, they'll test them that
they're conditioning, They'll make them do a bunch of stuff over,
you know, things over and over and over again, just
to see how they react when they're tired and when
they're frustrated, when when a coach gets on them, like

(49:14):
they'll test them physically and emotionally more like that for quarterbacks,
he might be in a room for three hours. You know.
I remember going out to the Oakland Raiders and visiting
with Lane Kifton at the time was the head coach
and UH coach Nap who was their offensive coordinator. And
what they did was they set you up basically a
classroom and and they went through their installed their offense
and they taped you, and they taught you in the

(49:35):
very beginning what it was, and then they took you out.
They had you meet other people within the organization, go
out and get lunch, you go, you know, go through
the facilities and all that. Then they brought you in
later on and they want to see how much you
could retain. So then you go back through installing the
offense basically what they gave you early on in that process.
So there's all sorts of different ways they test you
and they try to expose things and see how you

(49:56):
handle information and really how you learn um and and
and you know, look, it's not saying that they could
always get it right, but there definitely will take you
through a very strenuous process to figure out, you know,
where you kind of are in your football life and
in your maturation process. Because I asked it now. So
a J. McCarron, he's you know, the report is out
there because now he's a free agent that you know, well,

(50:17):
the Vikings might be interested. There's going to be a
market for him. Like a J. McCarron's kind of a
similar unknown. I mean, nobody really knows how good he is.
They have a small sample size, and he looked okay,
but nobody really knows how good he is. So what
can teams do before they sign him or offer him
a contract to try and figure out whether or not
he's the guy. Did they bring him in a classroom

(50:39):
and ask him to go over the offense? Is it
like Gruden's Quarterback Camp or whatever that that show is
that he had on ESPN? Did they do they make
him run drills? Like? How? How did they evaluate him
if they only have this small sample size to term
determine whether or not they want to give him a
long term contract. That's the interesting part is he's not
going to pry have to do anything that's amazing. He'll

(50:59):
probably being high enough to man where they'll do their
background check on him as far as talking to coaches
on the staff or whoever else it may be, and
they already have an evaluation from coming out of Alabama,
so they'll rely on a lot of that information. That's
why even if a team is not drafting a quarterback,
they still evaluate all of them, so they have some
sort of frame of reference or background on these guys

(51:20):
for this particular scenario, and you know, at that point
they might work him out I would find it very, um,
very unrealistic if they did, because besides Kirk Cousins, it's
a J mccaren like, that's the free agent quarterback market
we're talking about, and and and maybe that. I mean,
now in case Keenum could be that, although I think

(51:42):
he may get tagged in some capacity. There's some other
scenarios you could play out. But at this point, like
those are the top two guys being rumored. I think
it's kind of crazy, to be honest with you, um,
but well, we'll see how things play out. I mean,
here's the question. If you're a team that's quarterback needy, right,
if you're Cleveland, if you're the New York Jets, whoever
else you want to throw that conversation some people throwing
the bills even though they have Tyrod Taylor. The question

(52:04):
you have to ask yourself is is a hundred thirty
three pass attempts and three years in the NFL? How
much more valuable is that to me? With the guy
who I didn't have very highly graded, right, Like he
was a fifth round draft pick to the Bengals, which means,
you know, maybe was he a sixth round pick for
everyone else? You know? Because they obviously took him at
some point in the fifth round. Uh, some of the

(52:24):
teams have passed on him at that point. So the
question that becomes is Sam Donald, Josh Roseen, Josh Allen, Baker, Mayfield,
Lamar Jackson, Mason Rudolph, you can go on down the
line of quarterbacks. Are those guys that far behind him?
Just because agent McCarron has the seasoning and three years
in the league and a hundred thirty three pass attempts
in a live game Like, That's what you have to

(52:45):
ask yourself if you're one of these teams, because you're
gonna pay a lot more for agent McCarron and you
may not get the same type of return. Is what
you could you could get for one of these draft picks. Oh, okay,
here we go. I mean listen, like it was getting
late in the segments. I didn't know whether or not
that the lights are completely out. I have no idea

(53:06):
what the hell is happening? Um, I mean somebody could
rummage through my bag and uh, and I would have
no idea because the lights are completely pitch black. Something
just fell off the mic, no joke. Uh, clearly I've
upset him. I don't know what the hell I must
have done. Um, alright, so the lights are out. Live
bet Jesus is a character on the show. Brady and
I have never met him, but he is a degenerate gambler.

(53:26):
He is the Holy One. He only gambles and live
bets on Sunday nights when Brady Quinn and I are
on the air together. And uh, there's a light shining
down from the sky into the studio. Very breezy outside here,
getting a little chilly in southern California. But here comes
a floating piece of paper. It is a floating down

(53:50):
onto the desk here. Let me go ahead and grab
this here all right, let me uh no, that's Bobo's
tender password. Let me grab the other one here. There's
a bunch of papers all over the the filthy animals
around here, they haven't cleaned up after themselves. Brady, I
have the paper here. I have no idea where the
Madonna music went, because it just totally I mean talking
about a buzz kill. Now the Madonna music is gone.
And I don't know if I can read this without

(54:11):
the medonomy out there she is again sure beats uh.
Kendrick Lewis or whatever that guy's name is. All right,
So here we go. Uh, let me read this verbatim
here I have it on this Uh, this is a
piece of paper. Here. It is here that I li've
met Jesus on the eighteenth of February two thousand and eighteen,

(54:38):
have chosen the under of three hundred twenty four and
a half in the NBA All Star Game. There it
is under three d twenty four and a half in
the NBA All Star Game, Brady Quinn. And right now,
Team Steph is leading Team Lebron fifty to thirty nine

(54:58):
under nine minutes ago in the first half. So there
it is three twenty four and a half. That is
the number according to Live at Jesus. I think this
is a wonderful bet, a very safe bet, even though
a three was just hit for for Team Lebron. Course
it was why wasn't now taking the total to uh
ninety two. But I mean, think about it, We've got
almost eight minutes left in this somewhere. We're not even

(55:21):
close to halfway there, so these guys are not on
pace to hit that number. And the way they're shooting,
and I mean the way they're running up and down
the court. You have to think they're gonna get tired, right, Yeah,
I mean at this pace, I don't think there's any way,
uh these guys, are you gonna be able to get
over three twenty four and a half points. I think
this is a safe bet of smart play by you

(55:42):
know life bet Jesus Um. Although listen, he's been jobbed
many times when it comes to NBA Live. In fact,
I don't even know if he's won an NBA Live
better than last week. I've been jobbed several times. So
we will see how that shapes up here throughout the
course of the show. All right, Brady Quinn Jonas knocks
here Fox Sports Radio from the Geico Fox Sports Radio Studios.
Up next, Brady Quinn had an idea earlier in the show,

(56:05):
and I think it's one of the most arrogant things
I've ever heard in my entire life. Find out what
we mean next on fs ARE some very arrogant behavior
by Brady Quinn. I'll explain coming up here in just
a minute on Fox Sports Radio. That is Brady Quinn.
I'm Jonas Knox here on fs ARE we are going
to have another edition of Headline or Lie. Okay, if

(56:28):
you're not familiar with Headline or Lie, this is your
first time here in the show. First of all, where
the hell you've been you've been missing out. It's the
number one rated sports radio show in this time slot
on this network only when we're hosting. Okay, so that
is and that is all proven fact. But if you
have never heard Headline or Lie, it's where Brady and
I team up with two listeners right to two of

(56:49):
you can be a part of this. One of you
teams up with Brady, one of you teams up with me,
and we go against each other and we read headlines
to you. It's either an actual story or it's totally
made up. So if you want in on Headline or Lie,
then number two call to get in on It is
eight seven seven nine six six three six nine eight
seven seven nine six three six nine Headliner Lie coming

(57:12):
up five minutes from now here on Fox Sports Radio.
So they're Brady, you're ready to take your beating again.
You got a beating last week, you're ready to get
one again this week. I can test the fact that
you changed up the format and you were willing to
admit this in the break, but you came up with
the assinine idea two. Instead of you read your headline

(57:32):
or lie to my partner, you want to read it
to your own guy. And and you've since decided that
you want to change that format because I was going
to tank tonight's headline or live segment, because I was
just gonna make everything so easy for my partner to
get that I was gonna win. Listen, adapter dive brother, Alright,
that is the motto I believe in, And so we're

(57:54):
doing that. We're we are going to do the format
where I read to your partner and you to mine, okay,
because and I don't know why you wanted to do
it the other way last week. Uh, and even playing
by your rules, I still won the game, which was
just even more alarming standpoint, But I am very confident.
I am very confident in this week's edition again. So

(58:18):
all right, So I do want to get to this though, Brady, Um,
And before I do, I do need to tell you
that what does mean when Geico says just fifteen minutes
could save you fifteen cent or more on car insurance?
I mean you probably should have gone to gego dot com.
Fifteen minutes ago we were talking about the NBA playoff format.
Adam Silver had these ideas about, well, you know, we're
talking about travel and we resed it and maybe we

(58:39):
don't have the conferences and all this other stuff. So
you and I were throwing out a couple of ideas.
My ideas. You shortened the first couple of series three
games in the opening round, five in the second round,
seven and seven in the conference finals. In the finals,
you had an idea to where you said, let's reduce
the number of teams that actually get in to the postseason.

(59:01):
So you want it four and four. Correct. Well, here's
the problem. Let's say you went from sixteen down to
twelve or ten. You start to get into some issues
as far as how would work out from a playoff process,
and they're they're needing to be potentially buys because of
the math. So that's the issue, and that's why I
kind of just cut it down to eight. And the
other deal is you have thirty NBA teams, right, and

(59:23):
how many go to the playoffs? Sixteen, so you've got
more than half the teams in the NBA go into
the playoffs. So it just it seems like you're gonna
have a little bit of a water down products in
the first round anyway, because you've you've got a number
of teams that sometimes making in with losing records or
around five records. Now you could use the case of
the NFL doing the same thing because they've had some

(59:45):
division winners with five records. Heck, I was a part
of team that was um or even losing records. But
one those teams have actually faired okay in their wild
card round games. In the NBA history and the other differences,
you don't have a series. You have a one off
game scenario where anything can happen, So it ends up
being a little bit different because yeah, one team maybe

(01:00:07):
the other team nine times out of ten, but that
one game in football, it might be that one out
of ten. So that's kind of the difference. But I
cut it down to four and four only to make
the mass simpler and easier, even though again, much like
your idea, it's not really realistic. I think that that
is a that is one of the more arrogant things
that I've heard, and I think I know what you're
doing here right now. Get ready, we're going on a

(01:00:30):
spin cycle, all right, this is a spin job. We
are I am going to really sell you on something here, right.
I think that that's arrogant behavior on your part because
I think you look at part of the NBA as
the people that can't get behind the velvet ropes. You
look at part of the NBA like it's a gated community.
Either you know the code to get in or you
ain't getting in, And I think that that is very

(01:00:52):
unfair to treat a large portion of the n b
A and their franchises that way. Does that represent you,
Brady Quinn? Is is that your personality where you think
you like to stand up there behind the velvet ropes
when you and your buddies are are tearing up because
you're a celebrity and you can look down on the
people that can't afford to stay up there. Is that
what we're talking about here? Um one for starters like

(01:01:14):
this is all piggybacking off of your idea of the
NBA Playoffs being too long, and now you're a pointer,
let me just let me just state that, like where
I came up with this idea to help kind of
prove your point. But now since you went there, yeah,
I don't mind be separated from everyone else. No one
needs No one needs any spilled mixed drinks or alcohol

(01:01:36):
on your new shoes or whatever else that you're wearing. Like,
I don't need all that. I don't need a bunch
of guys bumping into each other looking to throw down
because they've got nothing to lose in their life. Like, yeah,
I don't you go ahead, you don't have the velvet rope.
Whatever you want, I don't care. I'll take a little separation.
I'll take them out a little quiet spot so I
can just hang out on my own. That that's perfectly

(01:01:57):
fine by me. You know, I was against your theory.
And then once you explain the spilling drink portion of it,
I've been burned way too many times, way too many times.
I look too good in white v nex to have
it ruined by some slob who's drinking a Red Bull
vodka or a vodka cranberry and he dumps it on me.
So you know what, I'm with you, Brady Quinn. Four

(01:02:18):
and four and uh, and let's reduce the number of games. Uh.
Smaller is better in this regard. And that's the only
time that smaller is better, as in this regard, I
am with Brady Quinn. Velvet ropes are up, me and
you man behind the velvet ropes. Screw everybody else who
can't get in perfect pay you pay your cover charge.

(01:02:39):
Brady Quinn Jonas knocks Fox Sports Radio from the Geico
Fox Sports Radio Studios. Coming up next, we are going
to play headline or lie, the hottest game going on
sports talk radio according to this show. That is next,
but for all the latest around the world of sports.
Steve in Los Angeles downtown at Staples Center, Team Staph
leading the NBA All Star Game. Late first half, sixty

(01:02:59):
fifty eight guys. L a native Fergie, was selected to
sing the u S national anthem. A little selection of that.
It's not getting great reviews, like what the hell is
that a karaoke bar? Does that meat loaf? She she

(01:03:24):
gave it her own flavor. Go ahead, give it a shot. Sure.
As far as the actual game, that's broken out, some
decent defense. We've had four blocks in the first half. Yes,
it's high scoring, but team staff up late first half
by nine points. Steph Curry had started over six shooting
off the bench. By the way, it's Karl Anthony Towns
with eleven points in six minutes for the leading side. Meanwhile,

(01:03:44):
Lebron James has played the most minutes of anybody. He
is after old captain of Team Lebron. He has fifteen
points in fifteen minutes. Lebron James with eight rebounds as well.
Get about three minutes left in the first half. At
the NBA All Star Game, team staff leading sixty seven
to fifty eight to College basketball. Number five Cincinnati had
a thirty nine game home winning streak broken, which toss

(01:04:07):
State went in there and beat him seventy seventy two.
Number six per Due has gone in front at home
early second half over Penn State. Michigan beat Ohio State
Duke one at Clemson. N h L wins for Philadelphia
and Pittsburgh. Austin Dillon took the Daytona five hundred, and
Bubba Watson won the Gulf Event in l A by
two strokes. Back to you, thanks Steve Jonas, Knox, Brady Quinn.

(01:04:29):
Here Fox Sports Radio, as we come to be alive
from the Geico Fox Sports Radio studios, where it's easier
to stay fifteen or center more on car insurance with Geico.
Go to Geico to a comer call eight seven otto.
The only hard part figuring out which way is easier.
Let's go ahead and we will pence on how that
was that came out of her mouth earlier. So that'll
be I've already got a jotted down here, and we
will get to that unbelievably bad performance that is that's

(01:04:52):
that's tried up there with the Mariah Carey on New
Year's Eve a couple of years ago. Just in defense
of Mariah Carey, Okay, she couldn't hear like the back
drop in the kind of the tune to all of it. Like,
I completely feel for her in that situation, because it's
a big moment. Man, It's New Year's everyone's watching, and
all of a sudden you're up there on stage and

(01:05:13):
you can't hear anything that else is going on, but
your dances are dancing, so you're just trying to trying
to kind of pick up with the tune. You shouldn't
be able to hear yourself to know whether or not
you sound like a sea line being shived in the
middle of the ocean. Okay, like that she was that
was atrocious. Fergis might have been just as bad. So
we're gonna go We're gonna get to that. That will
go ahead and carve out make her a special project

(01:05:35):
here on the show. All right, Uh, it is that time,
Brady Quinn, it is headline or Lie time. Are you ready? Yes?

we're gonna play it out on the air for all
of you. Next on FSR is Progressive New Home Quote

Come on, man, is this still the Black Panther soundtrack?

(01:17:52):
I have no. I yes it is. I know he's
going to play the entire soundtrack the rest of the show.
I mean listen. Uh, we we've got all right. So
Brady Quinn Jonas knocks here, Fox Sports Radio. Yeah, the
the that's that's a good one to play over over
the Dulcet Town sounds of Arnie Spanier's voice we into

(01:18:13):
the late hours on Fox Sports Radio, the Black Panther soundtrack.
Nothing would be more appropriate than that, Bernie. Um, alright,
So Brady Quinn Jonas knocks here, Fox Sports Radio from
the Geico Fox Sports Radio Studios. Um, I got a
phone call during the break. Yeah, it was very disturbing.

(01:18:34):
UM from my my girlfriend. Yeah, so I hope. I'm
glad you didn't hear the stuff we did earlier in
the show. I thought, I thought you told us that
she doesn't always listen. In fact, she seldom listens. She
seldom listens, but for some reason she thought that the
drive through at McDonald's was the right time to turn
on the show. I am, I am just disgusted at

(01:18:56):
the food selection that she has decided to take part
in this evening. So, uh, there's that story. But also
we've got to get back to a little bit of
controversy here, because I don't know whether or not there
was an issue in the latest edition of Headline or Live.
So Brady Quinn was set to be a guest on
my highly rated weekend overnight show here on Fox Sports

(01:19:18):
Radio for Hey, you know we're partners, Like you know,
Brady's got a show. Never asked me on, but I
always asked him on my show because I want to
be able to promote the show and all that stuff.
And and so Brady, just I mean I'm waiting around
and you just no show, no call, no answer, no text,
no nothing. I mean we're calling your house, calling, calling
the line. At one point your daughter, Yeah, I mean

(01:19:41):
at one point your daughter picked up and said he's
busy and hung up the phone, And I'm like, what
the hell is going on here? Is this how you
treat somebody? And I just wanted to know what the
hell the issue was. Yeah, if if I could, if
my daughter could actually have a conversation like that, that
would be wonderful, because I believe me, like dinner time
and trying to get her to figure out what she
wants and why she's not UNI sometimes is one of

(01:20:01):
the biggest stressers in a day, which is not a
big problem the grand scheme of things. Um, so yeah,
it's actually this pretty cool and part of the Orange
Bowl committee. And as I kind of alluded to, you know,
kids who slip through the cracks and don't end up
making like getting a D one scholarship. They put on
a showcase for kids in South Florida, uh, for D
two and D three school. So it's actually pretty neat. Um.

(01:20:22):
They started the registration early. It's kind of a combine
then mixed with some like on the field stuff. And
the issue was is you wanted me to try to
come on with you early, right, because on the East coast,
so the time change kind of works out. The problem
is is I had to get her up early, which
is not good. Anyone who knows the old saying you
don't wake up a sleeping baby. Well that was unfortunately

(01:20:44):
what I had to do to kind of get her
fed and get her ready. So the babysitter, who's not
accustomed to doing this because we just fired her nanny,
um if we had to get kind of prepared for
the day. So it's a little bit of a transition
between me having to leave at the butt crack of dawn.
So what you're saying is that your daughter takes I
already over my weekend overnight. Just a little bit, just
a little bit unbelievable. All Right. I don't know whether

(01:21:05):
or not I'm gonna come back, stick around to find
out if I decided to do the show. So there's
an NFL story out there that has no chance of happening,
no shot in hell that this actually happens. But if
it did, I think it would be wonderful. We'll explain
what that is coming up here in just a couple
of minutes. That guy is Brady Quinn. I am Jonas Knocks.

(01:21:25):
This is Fox Sports Radio. You can find us on
the I Heart Radio app and we do this show
every single week, same time, same place, eight to eleven
Eastern time, five to eight Pacific time here on Fox
Sports Radio and all from the Geico Fox Sports Radio Studios,
where fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more

(01:21:46):
rate quote. How much longer the Olympics gonna be on?
Can we just, I mean skip past all this? I've
seen enough? Are really I'm good with this, Is it
because the US is getting beat out right now by
I believe the another one's I could. I couldn't care less,
I honest to God, Like, this just doesn't do it
so unpatriotic? Man, I really do, Like you think it's

(01:22:08):
unpatriotic because I don't care about the Olympics. Yes, like
you're not rooting for our country to success in I
hope the US does well, But I mean, how long
does this stuff go on for? It goes on for
a few weeks? Man, Okay, first of weeks. First of all,
you act like you're you're Willie Winter Olympic over there. Okay,
you don't. You don't care about the winner Olympics. I do.

(01:22:30):
I told you I would rather watch right now the
winner Olympics than the NBA all starting game. Even though
in the break Bo and I are just discussing this,
I kind of like this format, Like I do think
it's a little bit more competitive. I think it's intriguing
to see, like how potential superstars could play with one another.
Right just seeing this, I actually I actually really like

(01:22:51):
this format. I think they should continue with this moving forward.
But that being said, it's only one half of basketball,
and we still haven't gotten to Fergi's awful national anthem yet.
Trust me, I have set aside a special block for
for one of the worst things you'll ever hear on radio. Um,
that will be coming up in in a in a
short time. I want to make sure we have all

(01:23:12):
the proper tools for that. So we so we will
have that here coming up sooner rather than later. Uh.
And by the way, if you are looking for something
else out there that you want to watch on mute
while you listen to this show, Uh, there is a
UFC event on Fox Sports one, So channel to nineteen
for you to direct TV subscribers Fox Sports one. There's
a UFC event, a live UFC event. Actually some good

(01:23:34):
fights coming up. So so there's that listen. Just trying
to hear here to help people, man, that's all we do.
Let me ask you this. So this story comes out
in the NFL to where you know it's free agency
and you hear these rumors and then a lot of
the stuff is just crap. What do you make of
the story that came out that the Washington Redskins would

(01:23:54):
consider placing the franchise tag on Kirk Cousins and a
lot of people point to the fat that they are
a very petty organization, but that they would place the
franchise tag on Kirk Cousins after all of this training
for Alex Smith, all of that stuff, that they would
still franchise kirk Cousins on his way out. I'm not
sure what to make if it, only because I don't
think it's gonna happen now. I think it's speculation that

(01:24:17):
someone may have made and I can't read into that
much because it doesn't make sense. I mean, if you're
a team and you witness the Redskins that try to
put Kirk Cousins of the franchise tag in order to
trade him so they could get value for it, um,
it's like, you know what what the end result is,
like they need to get rid of kirk Cousins. They

(01:24:38):
would be cash strapped at that point. Give them the
trade that they try to make to get Alex Smith
to be their quarterback, so you know that they don't
want them. And if they franchise tagged him, they'd be
paying him thirty four million under a one year deal
because it's the third year in a row he's been
franchise tag so that not only creates an issue for
the Redskins, it creates an issue for whatever team then

(01:24:59):
trade for him, because Kirk Cousins and his representation are
gonna say, well, guess what you knew exactly what you're
getting the player as well as the contract. So if
you're gonna pay us thirty four million for one year,
there's the starting point for average annual salary. So I
think if Bruce Allen and the rest of the brass
there in Washington went and spoke to other teams about

(01:25:22):
potentially doing this, which you know, again, these are the
sorts of conversations they're not supposed to have. I would
imagine that most teams would come back to them say,
what are you thinking. You're putting us in a terrible
situation to try to negotiate a long term deal. Um,
so of course we don't want you to do this
because you know, then then the trade is not gonna
go through, Like we're not going to give up compensation

(01:25:43):
for having to absorb a quarterback. He once at least
thirty four million per year for an average annual salary.
So that's why from an economic standpoint, it's not gonna happen.
But it would be a lot of fun to talk
about if they actually demand well, because then we just
we could do a bracket like an n c A
tournament style bracket um to where we put all thirty

(01:26:03):
two teams in and we would seed which teams are
dumb enough to actually do that trade. Okay, Like that
would be a lot of fun, and we can we
can just you know, kind of go week by week
and preview matchups and all that stuff, you know, the
eight seed versus ninety and all of that. But this
is where this, this is the part of this that
that I'm that I'm really confused on, Okay, And I
trust your judgment. I trust Brady Quinn's judgment on like

(01:26:25):
everybody has an opinion on sports or something like that.
But the one thing that I that you and I
see eye to eye on there are certain character traits
with people that bother us. Okay, certain things about people
and when people do things that really really bug us.
So we kind of see eyed eye in that. So
I trust your judgment on this. What am I missing
on the Kirk Cousins and his behavior in d C

(01:26:47):
to where that organization is not only not going to
want him around long term, but they want to kind
of give him a little shove in the back or
a kick in the ass on his way out the
door to try and try and screw with him when
he heads to free agency. What what? What is he like?
They're from people you've talked to that I am missing
because I've always heard from everybody he's a good dude.

(01:27:09):
I think he's done some things at some opportune times
for him that have just rubbed people the wrong. Like
what you like that? I think that statement wasn't just
made to the media. It was made to other people
out there who hadn't bought in. And again it sounds
like something small. But here's the thing. You know how

(01:27:32):
this works because because we work in the radio industry,
you meet people who are in the radio industry that
has gigantic egos, and you meet athletes and all these
other people who are the same. There are some, by
the way, there are there are some who have rabbit
ears and they hear everything that's said right and they

(01:27:54):
take offense to stuff. And that's an instance that I think,
you know, Bruce Allen and maybe even Dan Snyder, maybe
even their owner. Because this all goes back to the beginning.
Dan Snyder wanted Robert Griffin the third that was his
draft pick. It didn't work out. You don't want Guys

(01:28:14):
with big egos have a hard time doing they have
a hard time admitting the wrong. And this is a
scenario where I think in the end that unless they
took him to the playoffs and had a great string
of it when the m v P or won a
Super Bowl, that was what it was gonna take to
convince Dan Snyder that it's okay to even then. I

(01:28:34):
think he'd probably try to spin it and make the
case that you know, all along while I was a
part of it, you know, we drafted this that was
Mike Shanahan and Kyle Shanahan's draft pick. You know what
that is. That's Daniel Snyder running the team like a fan.
Like that's fanboy stuff. That's like, don't make fun of
my favorite player. I bought his jersey, I have his
stuffed animal, I wanted a claw machine. Don't make fun
of him, and don't trade him because I want to

(01:28:55):
keep my investment. Like that's that's fanboy stuff. The fact
that he's still holding and I totally buy into it.
And here's the other thing, Like if you're in like
organizations in the NFL, like there are a lot a
lot of it is about optics, right, Like they'll make
moves based on on perception publicly. And I think that
that's been done in the NFL, especially recently, with how
like the focus and how much attention is on the

(01:29:16):
NFL all time, especially during the season, Like the Redskins
off season last year was such a disaster with the
mccluan stuff and the rumors that were being spread that
he's back on the sauce, and then in an article
that came out that that Bruce Allen walks around drinking
corps lights like their capri sons. Like it's like like

(01:29:38):
this whole like the way they painted the whole organization
was just such a mess that you would think, like
if you could do a guy as solid who's never
gotten he's never gotten a d u I, he's never
been any public trouble or anything like that, you would
think you could do with the guy is solid and
just sort of wash your hands with it and say,
hey man, best of luck, I really appreciate everything you
did for us. And still like less than a year later,

(01:30:01):
they're acting like this it's it's crazy to me that
the organization has run that way. The other thing that's
bizarre is they're still using Scott mcclohen's UM, you know,
kind of draft analytics, the way they go about scouting
players and and other teams Actually now that UM he's
kind of started like more consulting for other teams. There's
multiple teams now that are looking at the way he

(01:30:22):
breaks down players, the way he grades players. He's he's
thought of very highly in that regard right as far
as evaluating talent, Yeah, he's one of the best in
the business. And that's why you see that. And if
you go through the draft picks that he he was
a part of during his time in Washington, he was
pretty darned successful. And you can make the same case
for during his time in Seattle's following throughout the course

(01:30:43):
of his career, he's been very very good at identifying
talent both in in early rounds and late rounds and
be able to maximize um, you know, the draft picks
that any team has on any given years. So it's
kind of sad to think that because of whatever personal
issues he was going through differences in opinion that they
they took away one of their best assets to that

(01:31:04):
team in Washington, and I think they're gonna lose another
one because because Kirk Cousins is going to become a
free agent, and when he does, someone's gonna pay him
a lot of money. He's gonna get the contract that
they wanted. And fortunately for the Redskins, they've got Alex Smith,
but his window of playing is not as long as
what Kirk Cousins is. And here's the other issue is
he's he might find himself in the same scenario who

(01:31:25):
was in Kansas City. There's nothing that says the Redskins
can't address the fact that they'll have Alex Smith as
their day one starter, but maybe potentially another first round
pick who's in the waiting that's gonna develop for a
year or two behind Alex Smith. That's not outside the
realm of what could occur. So once again, though, there
could be a transition at quarterback after a year or two,
and Alex Smith might not play after it to that

(01:31:47):
ability because this is the third time he's had to
deal with this in San Francisco, Kansas City, now potentially Washington.
If this trade goes through on the first day of
the new league year from people you talked around the NFL,
Brady quin what is Bruce Allen's reputation around the league?
You know, in certain circles he's respected and and and

(01:32:07):
people believe in his ability as a front office or
or general manager whatever title you want to give him
for wanting that side of things. And then there's others
who who don't have the same, you know, feelings towards him. Um,
they there's a little bit of a different tone taking
towards him and as far as what they think, um,
just to put it lightly, I mean, you you can't

(01:32:28):
say you know everything that people say and talk about
when you're not necessarily on the record or when you're
talking in private conversations. Right, nice work there, by the way, Well,
I'm just saying that. That's m bobbing and weaving there.
That was good. You're getting good at this whole thing. Man.
Well I'm trying to very good. All right. Uh. Jonas

(01:32:49):
knocks Brady Quinn here Fox Sports Radio as we come
to the Alive from the Getico Fox Sports Radio Studios.
I'll say it. I've heard Bruce Allen's to pain in
the ass, Okay, so I'll say it that's that's just
what I've heard. So there, there's there's that. Um. Alright,
So coming up next year on Fox Sports Radio, this
is one of the worst things you're gonna hear on
radio in maybe the next twenty years. Okay, the next

(01:33:10):
twenty years. This might be one of the words. Yeah, Okay,
you're right, this is the worst thing you've ever heard
in the history of the universe. We'll tell you what
it is next on FSR. I don't know. This sounds
like actually said like Darth Vader was strepped throat. I

(01:33:31):
don't think about it. Whoever that is. I don't even
know who Darth Vader is to be. Why Bubbo turn
it off because his ears are working? That's why are
you kidding me? Alright, Brady? I thought it's because we
were disrespecting it. He gets kind of sensitive about that stuff.
Right here we go, Hey, look the event the events
on where guys grab skis and a shotgun and go
head out on the snow. What the hell is this man?

(01:33:53):
Is this called skeleton? But who knows? Buy aff on whatever? Um?
All right, So Brady quinn Jonas knocks here Fox Sports
Radio as we come to Alive from the Geico Fox
Sports Radio Studios. We are going to have another edition
of Over Unders coming up here in about ten minutes
from now. It's where Brady and I we compete on

(01:34:15):
on some betting lines. I believe this is the first
week we've ever done it. We have never done kind
of a competition. Not not really so much in reality,
but in your mind. It's it actually is astonishing how
much better you are at that game than me. Like
it really is, like like I don't even and I
forget about something and I always and you know, here's
the here's the issue with the event itself, because people

(01:34:38):
are are out to get me. Okay, it's people on
the show, all right. I feel like Julius Caesar, like
I don't know who's on my side or who's gonna
stab me in the back. So we've got Eric Roberts,
our executive producer, and uh, every time he reads my
results off first because I think that it means that
I won, and then follows that up with your results,
and every single time I lose. So I think it's

(01:34:59):
I think it's everyone's like a coup out to get me,
and everybody on this show sucks as far as I'm
concerns you. Eric has openly said on air that he
supports you in that and he actually wants you to
win because you lose so often. He said that he
actually was quite said that you called me out so
much that I just don't mind when you lose. Well,

(01:35:21):
first of all, that's the same thing, isn't it. Come on?
First of all, there there's clearly favoritism on this show
because like Bobo post videos on Instagram where he's working
out and he's got gloves on, like he's like he's
putting on mittens to go play in the snow. Come on, man,
be an adult. Take the gloves off, get some callouses
on your hands. Okay, that's first and foremost a couple

(01:35:42):
of reasons why we're gloves. I still don't go with that,
and we'll not do that because I can't go into details.
Uh you can see what says, Yeah, I have I
have proof that you don't always wear gloves in studio
right now. So so that is and that is another
conversation altogether. But but it is so well, Okay, in

(01:36:12):
his in his videos, he gives shout outs to Brady
Quinn and of course somebody he works with goes, oh,
Brady Quinn, the former quarterback, and then uh, the intern
she shows up here and she's got a Brady Quinn
rookie card, and she's like like blushing when she gets
to talk to you on the phone. And then all
of a sudden, Eric Roberts he promotes Brady Quinn and
over unders and all this it's always about Brady, Brady Brady. Meanwhile,

(01:36:35):
I am sitting here, okay, every week, busting my ass
to try and deliver great sports talk radio here and
I get no damn respect. So you know what I
have to do. I resort to drinking and gambling, okay,
because my life is ravaged with confidence. I'm even sure

(01:36:56):
to respond to that. Besides the fact that you know,
it looks like live that Jesus is gonna hit his
over under and it's it's still early four minutes left
in the third quarter, but neither the team's shooting overly
well from behind the arc. Yeah it is, but they're
playing a little bit of Deefer plus. It's l a
man like I've heard there's like I guess there's like
a strip club that's going to open up at ten

(01:37:17):
am on Monday or something like that like that. I
saw that. It was like a report somewhere that they're
going to stay open because all the guys are going
to go out on the town on a Sunday night
and because they you basically get a full week off
now during All Star Week, you these guys are gonna
be I mean, they're gonna get after it on a
Sunday night and Sunday night in Hollywood. It's a pretty
deep dude. It's President That's true. Yeah, President Um. All right,

(01:37:42):
so we've got to get to a very very important
issue here on Fox Sports Radio. All Right, what does
it mean when Geico says just fifteen minutes could save
you fifteen cent or more in car insurance? I mean
you probably should have gone to Geo dot com fifteen
minutes ago. So fergi Um, the the performer, the the singer,
the musician one a bunch of Grammys, used to be

(01:38:02):
married to Josh Dumel. She uh front front woman for
the Black Eyed peas Um just dropping a musical knowledge
here on Fox Sports. Trade is what I do. And
she was performing the national anthem at the NBA All
Star Game and uh, it didn't really go all that well.
So at halftime, Charles Barkley and Shack and the crew

(01:38:26):
from TNT decided to weigh in on the on Fergi's performance,
and here's the outsided. At halftime, Kid, we talk about
fergus Ness lanting, Oh stop, don't do that. Don't do
that to my Fergie. Fraggie, I love you. It was different,
it was sexy, it was different. Cigarette after that, Hey,

(01:38:49):
good afternoon, everyone, I love you. I like it was different.
That was different. To be different in two thousand eight,
you can't do she's on the four, right, she's on
the show the four. Because Whitney Houston did a different
She's on the four. So you have the battle you're
compared to. What's not saying. I'm just the analogy of
being different. Okay, Houston was different. It was Stevie Wonder

(01:39:12):
did a different. Jeffrey as when always going to the land,
Marvin Marvin Gay did a different here he did it right? Different?
Did they did? They did it good? So um so
obviously the reviews not real positive for Fergy. And if
you're wondering what Charles Barkley who, by the way, it
sounds like he's been getting after an all weekend. His

(01:39:34):
voice is completely God. If you're wondering what Charles Barkley
was referring to, this was Fergi earlier tonight before the
NBA All Star Game, Kenny sysirinly it's so rang. Wait

(01:40:07):
at the twa Light's less scream Who Rise and writes
sto to prove the pit raut last five or the

(01:40:29):
rooms we watch We're so gay sounding a Christmas carol?
Like it almost feels like a Christmas Carol. You know.
I gotta be honest with you, man, last time I
heard noises like this, they were running after a fire truck.

(01:40:52):
I don't think it's that bad. It's just looks like
when you see an outfit and everything looks good and
you get down shoes or something. He was like, Yeah,
that just doesn't go. That's off the entire outfit. Yeah,
that's what it's like. It's like she's got on Armani
suit and Bell Crow shoes. Yeah, like the athletic walkers

(01:41:15):
you pick up at Walmart for like waters, like those
who's scrapped Bell Crow wanted to be at a Walmart.
It's just like and everything looks kind of cool and
then you're like, it just doesn't go to Man, they're

(01:41:39):
cutting there. Like listening to this and every single one
of them, you could just tell they're trying to hold
a straight face and they go to Kimmel in the
crowd and he's just laughing, just laughing at it. No,
that was what the problem is. We need Jonas passed out.

(01:42:03):
Jonas passed out on Jonas Man, that is here. Here's
the issue. It's it's stunk. National Anthem doesn't need seasoning,
it doesn't need any extra spices or sauce or anything else. Man,
Like you just you gotta go out there if you're
Furgi because she has a good voice, I just perform

(01:42:23):
like you don't need to change it up so much
just because the venue you're in or whatever else you're
trying to accomplish. That's how you ruin a good steak.
It's it's better than Carl Lewis. Okay, you ever heard
Carl Lewis's rendition from years and years ago. We might
have it in the system if you look up Carl Lewis.
Carl Lewis sings the national anthem, and um, first of all,

(01:42:46):
I don't know who he got ahold of that he
was able to convince. Usually you got to send a
demo over. They've got some sort of you know, understanding
and maybe listen, maybe Fergi got hung out to dry. Yeah,
here it is. Listen to this. Oh oh see, can

(01:43:07):
you see? And I'll make a fart now the lad
the free like honest again, you and I could go
drinking for thirty six hours straight and make armpit farts

(01:43:29):
that sound better than that, Like I mean like this,
we could do armpit farts that would sound better than
both of the first deals. You just gotta know the lyrics.
That's enough, sad listen, listen, please street me, I tellity man,

(01:43:53):
like the last of sounds like that are usually running
after a fire trunk. All right, was stude? All right,
that's that's what I can't. I can't help. I can't.
I can't handle. This is ridiculous. SA does that stops bag? Yeah?

(01:44:23):
You know, but but this isn't what Carl Lewis does
did for his career, you know, well, I mean clearly.
So the difference is like Furgy does it just sinks
for her career, like like even though it sounds bad,
it's like it's that like you know what I'm saying,
Like there's a big difference oh man, well, it's better

(01:44:48):
in Lonzo Balls rap song he just released. I will
say that, I mean, both are better than you know.
You made a pledge. You made a pledge that we
weren't going to talk about LaVar and a Lonzo. I
have a really good theory on that. If you exactly no,
and and we're gonna get to it because you want
to talk about it, and I just I feel like
you broke your promise. Man, all right, I'm just being honest.

(01:45:09):
A lot of broken promises on this show. You know
what I meant broken? Alright, Brady Quinn Jonas knocks here
Fox Sports Radios. We come to be Alive from the
Geico Fox Sports Radio Studios. It is over undertime coming
up next year on Fox Sports Radio. But for all
the latest from around the world of sports. A man
who's a professional who when he cracks the mic, it
always sounds good Steve to Seger and not true. But

(01:45:31):
I enjoyed the renditions and the comments, and it does
remind me of a different Houston Rockets anthem singer. By
the way, any time the anthem singer himself actually goes well,
that's very fats. There was another guy at a rock
in the eighties at a Rockets game. Not a famous guy.
And this is how it ended. Sam. It sounds like,

(01:46:03):
you know, you got getting credit for just going for it.
He just kept with it. So congratulations. Anyway, a minute
left in the third quarter of the NBA All Star
Game in l A. It is Team Lebron now in
the lead, one oh nine, one oh seven. Team steph
By the way, they're captain not shooting well. He's three
of twelve from the floor and James Harden is three

(01:46:23):
for thirteen for Team Lebron Lebron. James in twenty one
minutes has nineteen points and ten rebounds. He is the
leading score and has the most minutes on his team.
We are brought to you by Geico. Great news. There's
a quick way you could say money switched to Geico.
Go to Geico dot com and in fifteen minutes you
could say fifteen per cent or more on car insurance.
NASCAR's Daytona five hundred was today on Fox TV. Austin

(01:46:47):
Dillon the winner, taking the lead on the last lap,
bumping Eric el Merola out of the way. Bubba Watson
took the golf event in l A by two Strokes.
Phil Mickelson was four back and in college basketball tonight
number six per Due has beaten Penn State seventies six
seventy three. Guys, you have mentioned Black Panther throughout the show,
I gotta say. Associated Press said at the NBA All

(01:47:09):
Star site at Staples Center this weekend, quote, people are
going nuts for Chadwick Boseman here at courtside. He is
absolutely one of the biggest movie stars in the world
right now, the lead in that movie. And by the way,
he played Jackie Robinson in the movie forty two just
a few years ago, played James Brown in a movie
I did not realize he had played. I think it

(01:47:31):
was Floyd Little in that Ernie Davis movie The Express,
remember a few years ago. Yeah, and the They're Good
Marshall movie as well. Anyway, Black Panther opening on a
holiday weekend, so they still have more money to make tomorrow.
It's gonna gross over two hundred million dollars just for
this first weekend. It's gonna be one of the biggest
openings ever. Good for him. Many get paid, get paid. Um.

(01:47:56):
Jonahs knocks Brady Quinn here Fox Sports Radios. We come
to alive from the get go Fox Wortch Radio studios
where it's easy to say one and car insurance with
Geico go to Geico dot comer call eight under, nine
four seven auto. The only hard part figuring out which
way is easier. Right now, it's time for this time
to put your money where your mouth is. You know
you lion life and it's over under and for that

(01:48:21):
we turn it over to executive producer Eric Roberts for
this week's edition. Okay, so I want to try to
string you along this week, Jonas um So. But it
was a strong week for both of you, guys. Okay,
you both went for in one last week. Oh tie,
look at that. Actually we've ever done. Guys picked the
same on three of them, and you split the ones

(01:48:43):
you differed on. Um. The big topic Classmik was the
Phoenix Suns and how bad they were. So we set
the over under out twenty five and a half for
the margin of victory in that game where they played
the Warriors, the one where they actually Warriors coached themselves.
They lost by forty six. Um Brady took the or
Jonas Sick the under. So that's where you guys differ
on that one. Like this is and but you did

(01:49:05):
you did get the number of Instagram posts by Tom
Brady in a week Jonas, and we posted three. So
I find I think it might be a trend here.
You know that's true. You know Jonas might social media. Yeah,
he might be more connected to the social media aspects
of Snapchat, snap snap cross or whatever it is called. Listen,
get me on Snapchat by the way, at Draymond Green.

(01:49:28):
That's where you can find me. Wasn't there a headline?
Maybe thousand? Is that real? Was that a Liardine list?
That's a whole, another whole, another hour. How do I know? Alright, guys,
So I'm looking towards the next week's pick. So we're
gonna look at the Warriors versus the Thunder. On Saturday
night over under sixty nine and a half three pointers

(01:49:51):
attempted by both teams was being played. I want to
say it is in gold or in um Oakland. Let
me check, okay, quick, Warriors in Thunder, Warriors and Thunder, Yes, okay,
sixty nine and a half total threes attempted attempted. Yes,
it's in Oakland, it's in the Bear. I'm gonna take
the under. I'm gonna take the over. Why why are

(01:50:16):
you going to take the over? Brady? Well, first off,
it's in the Bay Area, and Golden State tends to
shoot well at home. Your analysis, I love, yes, look
a look at them. They traditionally have more three point
steps at home versus on the road. You took the
over because you wanted to go opposite of me. Okay,
that's why you took the over. No, I actually believe

(01:50:37):
they're going to hit the over of sixty nine and
a half. Okay, guys, next one, another one about the sons.
I think I might try to find a son's pick
every week. Just okay, they've already screwed me twice. You
remember when, not me, but remember Live at Jesus had
the NBA game on in the studio when you were
in studio Brady on New Year's Eve, and what teams

(01:50:58):
screwed him? It was the Sun's in that game. Then
they screwed me last week. They've screwed everybody on this show.
But Brady, Okay, I'm sick of the Sun's. Well, that's
not technically true. There was this one time. Well I'll
say that for the next Okay, they could play they
play the Clippers and the Trailblazers next week. Guys over
under two hundred and five and a half points combined

(01:51:21):
for them scored in their two games next week Blazers
UM young team. They're both home games in Phoenix. I
don't know if that will help you take the over.
I'm yeah, young team, get a chance to rest. You
have have probably hit that rookie wall, lutty young players
getting used to the NBA grind. I can see them

(01:51:44):
coming out with fresh legs and putting up a lot
of points. That's called analysis. So it's done, folks. Yeah,
I'm just gonna take the over analysis on this one. Okay.
Took all the time we had so without no football,
without football being played. Guys, you gotta kind of look
around for some of these over under SO women's hockey
Tonight semifinal USA Hockey versus Finland UM over under three

(01:52:06):
and a half goal scored by the American women under.
I feel terrible saying that, but under okay, because I'm
I'm patriotic, I actually care about the country's gonna watch
what times that game start? Robert eight o'clock Pacific, eight
o'clock Pacific. You're you're right, I probably won't. I probably
won't watch it, but I got hoping for like four am. Yeah,
I really was seriously like, if I can't sleep, there's

(01:52:28):
something on. Um, I'm patriotic, I care about the country.
Brady does not. I'll take the over. I think just
because I took the underdoes I mean they're not gonna win,
even even though Finland is pretty dark? Good? Yeah? But
are they alright? I'll still take the over? Alright, guys
soum being that there is no NBA action until Thursday,

(01:52:48):
that football is an off season. Um, scraping the bottom
of the barrel for topics here in sports radio. Number
of posts about baseball on Fox Sports Radio's web page
between now and next week over under nine and a half.
Oh okay, this is not this, this is jonas are

(01:53:08):
expertise from from the FSR account on the ones that
will come up on the Fox Sports Radio homepage. Um,
because Brady really wanted to talk about Eric Cosmar. And
you know there will be something about Tebow. You know,
there will be something about Hosmer. Tebow will get a
couple from the Jason Smith Show. There's a couple in there,
sprinkled throughout nine and a half. Um, it'll be well,

(01:53:30):
it'll be nothing from from my overnight show for two reasons,
One because I refused to talk baseball and two because
um uh, I never get any never get any run
on the website. Um, let's uh gosh over and I'll
go the under. Okay, I still think it's a little early.
I'll go the under. I think there'll be a breaking
NFL story that'll take over. I'm also going to take

(01:53:54):
the under because it is the franchise tag designation that dates.
I believe ye, my man, I knew that too. I
think it's I think it's gonna dominate a lot of
the headlines and a lot of the storylines. And you
never know, maybe Jonas will get his Christmas wish early
and the Redskins will franchise tag. Kirk causes the third strade.
Me and you, man, I also knew that that was
the deadline for that thing you just said. Not not

(01:54:16):
the deadline. It actually starts the first day with which
you can text whatever you just said. I knew that, man,
Me and you. Alright, guys, Final one, Final one, Steve
to say, you're kind of stole a thunder on this
one a little bit We're gonna set the over under
at two hundred and five million dollars brought in by
Black Panther this weekend and the box office. Who cares. Yeah,

(01:54:42):
there's not there's not. Okay, was like, so invested in
this movie. I'm investigating for multiple reasons. What does that
mean that I'm invested in the movie. I really hope
this movie does well. Already doing well well? I wanted

(01:55:02):
to well, I want to know what you think. So
what's okay? Your opinion matters? Brady? Okay, So I'm going
to work out tomorrow about gloves now, thanks to Brady. Yeah,
that's how it should be done. Man, about the glove
gloves you want to wear? You want to wear some
grips around your wrist to to get a better grip

(01:55:23):
on stuff. Says you move some away, Brady. By the way,
by what, one of your more meathead moments here on
the show is during the Bradys Like, listen, man, if
you want to wear a wrist wraps when you're moving
some way, that's yeah, moving some weight. Um let me
see just bubb Ken grabbing like twenty pound weights. No gloves, man,

(01:55:46):
when have you ever seen me with a twenty pound
weight in my hand. Oh okay, okay, go ahead and
stay as far away from that as possible. Well, not
even go near that, although I really do want to.
Three jokes have already popped in my head. All right,
so Roberts. So, So it's the amount of money, the
amount of money in this weekend. Yet I'm taking the over.

(01:56:08):
They got the holiday weekend tomorrow. More people will see it.
I'll take you know what, people will see this a
second time. Yes, I'll take the Over two because it
is getting good reviews, even though it's one of these
comic book movies. I saw Thor in the theaters a
few months ago. Oh my god, how people watch that crap?
Blows my mind. It was awful. But you told me

(01:56:28):
after you saw the movie was terrible. But for some
reason you couldn't stand up the entire time, just because
of that. That's this thing, right, We're done here, alright,
Brady quinn Jonas knocks here, uh Fox Sports Radio. But

(01:56:50):
according to Brady, it's Fox Thor Radio here on the
FSR coming up next year from the Geico Fox Sports
Radio Studios. Um A A big moment, A big moment
for Fox Sports Radio was ruined by a show host here.
All right, we'll tell you who that is next on
fs ARE. There's just a fun way to get it in.

(01:57:11):
Jonas knocks Brady Quinn here Fox Sports Radio. Uh, coming
up here in just a couple of minutes, we are
going to tell you about somebody at this network who
blew a golden opportunity totally ruined. So we'll have that
for you here, coming up in just a couple of minutes,
Brady Quinn. There's a guy fighting on the UFC event
on Fox Sports One right now that Um, I was

(01:57:35):
a second. My my left ear is now is now
gone because the music is cranked up so loud, so
I'll be uh, I'll be auditioning his van Go next
week because I can't hear out of my left ear now.
Is Bobo's just taking over? He just wants to continue
to play the soundtrack of of Black Panther. There is
a a guy on the UFC event right now. He's
fighting at lightweight, which is a hundred and fifty five

(01:57:57):
pounds and he's six three. Like I think I'm talking
about is a Vic. Yeah, James Vic. He's sick. He's
a good fighter. James Vick is a good fighter, but
dude is six three a hundred fifty five pounds and
a bad dude. That's just you just have an advantage
every single time you go into a fight, Like every
single time he fights somebody at that weight, he's got

(01:58:19):
an advantage. And it's at least I mean, this gather
guy he's fighting is five nights. He's got walking in
same weight in a six inch advantage as long as
he can cut the right weight and he does it smart. God,
what a night. In the words of Jonas Knocks. Um, Yeah,
from the weight standpoint, but there's a lot of things
to grab there if if you know what Jonas Knocks

(01:58:39):
is talking about, and he just connected on the right hand.
So I'm telling you, man, James Vick, watch out because
Mike Tyson would have been like a good boxer if
that was the case. You know, he fight has a
heavy weight, but he's a much smaller squatter. You guys,
you had to get to the inside. I know I
don't mixed martial arts as different, um, but I always
felt like because I wrestled a little bit while I
was young, and I was taller like your guys. As

(01:59:01):
I mean it was kind of hard at times, man,
because you got a leg flail out there. Yeah, it's
it's just I don't know, it's a little more difficult.
I think when you're compacts sometimes the rest of it's
not so bad. Um, do you want to let you
know that we have great news. There's a quick way
you could save money. Switched a guy go go to
guy go dot com. In a fifteen minutes, you could
say fifteen percent and more on car insurance. So the
over under four live bet. Jesus, who appeared earlier in

(01:59:22):
the show, was on the NBA All Star Game and
it was three twenty four and a half. Right now
it is one thirty three one three Team Steph over
Team Lebron, six minutes to go in the game, so
that puts us at two fifty six. Brady Quinn, you're safe.
You're in the clear. I don't think h I'm just

(01:59:45):
telling you if this game goes to overtime, I'll never
show up here again, like I will never replace another one.
There's not a player, coach, fan who's watching this that
wants this to go into overtime. Um, you want to
hear about somebody who blew a golden opportunit unity would so, uh,
in less than ten minutes from now, Chris Plank and

(02:00:06):
Arnie Spaniard are going to take over here on Fox
Sports Radio. Great show have been been together for a
long time and so we are always the undercard for
Chris Plank and already span You're here on the network
every Sunday night. And um, so I started hearing some
stuff on social media that a certain something happened this
week to where somebody on a rival network, Um, Mike Golic,

(02:00:32):
you know Mike Gelick, you know his son. Mike Golic
was referencing a story about playing somebody in an all
star game competition, some celebrity game, and he said that
he played against Arnie Spanier, but but he got the
wrong Arnie. He actually was playing against another guy whose
name was Arnie, but he was just reverted back to

(02:00:53):
Arnie Spaniard. And so I started hearing about it and
people were laughing and like, oh, Arnie got a shout at.
So I text Arnie Spanier and I'm like, hey, man,
I I hear you. You were on uh you know
the rival network. Good job, man, nice work. And do
you know what Arnie Spanier wrote back, not a damn thing,

(02:01:14):
literally nothing, big time me. All I did was throw
the guy a compliment. That's all we do is try
and pump up that show. Here, I am trying to
give this guy a little bit of like a compliment
to make him feel good, you know, in the middle
of the week where it's negative eighty in Vermont, wherever
the hell he's located now, and he doesn't even right back.
He big times me. Here's the good thing Chris Planks

(02:01:35):
on the show, and he would definitely text I could
text Chris right now. He would get right back to me,
because he's a good person. Arnie Spanier is not. He's
a terrible human being. Plank and Spanier are coming up next.
Only listen to Chris Plank. Do not listen to Arnie Spaniard.
Don't listen to him.
