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

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Where you go?

Speaker 1 (00:04):
That's right? What's up? Everybody, Happy Sunday. Thank you for
tuning in, hanging out with Carrie Roads. And you can
follow Carrie on Twitter x at Carrie twenty five Roads
or just carry Roads on Instagram.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
He likes to spice it up.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Follow me across social media at Monte Villanya's tweet at us,
tweet out Fox Sports Radio, tune in, let us know
if you have thoughts on what we're diving into, and
we have once again a lot to dive into, from
the NFL to the NBA. We will be talking to
our NFL insider Adam Kaplan in the next hour.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
We've got easy as one, two, three, four, We've.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Got carry on or off, and we're gonna get through
it all this time. Sure, in the right amount of time,
in the right amount of time, We're gonna sure.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Shut up.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
No, I'm not sure, but we're gonna definitely try. Wait,
can't wait, can't wait. NFL preseason action going on, Carrie.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
I know it's just preseason, but it feels good.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
It feels good to see some football. Some somebody's flying.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Around city lamb flying on the sideline.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
I mean inadverted hits. Yes, it all is all wrapped up.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
You were like, ouch, did you because you know when
you where you're not expecting a hit, it hurts more
like even like a little hit when you just don't expect,
or like a bump, you're just like, where did that
come from?

Speaker 4 (01:23):
We talked about everybody playing an important role when it
comes to anything, right, it's always a team. Now you
really understand how important that get back coach is on
the sideline.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
Absolutely attended to get back coach on the sideline, so
you do not get steamrolled.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Steamrolled. You know, you'll usually see at least the videos
I see the most of Sean McVay needing to get back.
He's always the one that's animated like right there, and
somebody's always pulling him back.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
That job.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Yes, it's very import everyone around is very important. But
any of us preseason action fully underway. A game going
on right now at SOFI Stadium, one wrapped up in Chicago,
a tie game, something that we're only going to see
during the preseason, a tie game which is interesting to see.
But also, yes, we don't need to play anymore. No,
we don't need to play anymore. So that that is

(02:12):
definitely the right call, and a lot of coverage up
and down Carrie. Literally, whatever whatever you want to know,
you can probably do a Google search and find it
down to maybe what they're even having for breakfast if
you really dive into it. And obviously we want to
be a part of it, but how much should we

(02:35):
be a part of it is the real question, And
there's sometimes I wonder.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
If we if we have too much.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
The season of Hard Knocks with the Bills couldn't care less.
Apparently it's not even great. Really apparently episode one they
don't even talk about James Cook like it's you know
what I'm saying. It's like, you're giving me all this information,
but what is actually valuable as we get ready for
the real NFL season and from training camp to a

(03:02):
preseason game.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
It's just the information is an overload.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
And I don't know you were a player where maybe
the attention was there, but not put on display the
way it is put on display right now. You see
these young guys, how do you think it must feel
for them, you now being an outsider, but knowing what
it's like to be there at training camp when you're

(03:29):
getting ready, when you're figuring things out.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
There are teams like the Bills, who you.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Could argue they're fine tuning their situation, right, Ravens fine
tuning their situation. Then you've got teams like the Patriots,
they're figuring it out. They're figuring it out with the
new head coach and a young quarterback.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
What is too much? What is it that you.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
Look at that you think we shouldn't cover that or
what do you actually put value in? Like there's so
much to a carry and you've just been there, but
the way it's covered now it just seems a bit much.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Yeah, the history of first impressions is always.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
A good way to put that.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
The history of first impressions. When you look at that,
it's you.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
You know, you're either going to be like, oh, this
dude's the greatest, or this dude's the best or whatever,
and it's always you've kind of been conditioned to always
put your your your best foot forward in those situations.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
Right.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
So imagine if you were a concert pianist and you
had coverage of everything you did from the beginning to
the end, so like your novice and then you end
up being a master or whatever the case may be.
And you're trying to fine tune things. You're trying to
find out who you are. You want to find out
what type of style you want to play. Do you
want to be Beethoven, Do you want to be Bach,

(04:45):
Do you want to be hip hop Orn't like whatever
you're trying to figure out. Like, that's the beauty of
being behind closed doors because you can fully mess up,
you can be bad. You can actually be bad and
get better in the process of a you know, a
a couple of weeks, a month, and next thing you know,
you're playing at a different level. Right And so I

(05:05):
think with the coverage of all this stuff right now
with training camp and you're covering a bad day.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
From justin fields, he looks awful.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
Today he comes into preseason three to four in a
touchdown and looks great. And so now everything that was
covered up to that point, was it really even necessary?
So for me it's like, yes, I think the coverage
of knowing who's healthy, knowing who's on the team, you know,
some interviews here and there, But I think that's fine.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
I think that's great. That's kind of what my playing
days were.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
Right There were real beat writers, there were real reporters
that did the real work. And if you want to
take the time to go read a paper after that
story was printed, then good on you. But the fact
that everybody with a camera can say this person had
a bad day, it's not good for football because football
isn't going to be pretty every day. And if you're
there every day and you're seeing guys who are also

(05:52):
human going through the process of maybe it don't wasn't it.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Maybe it wasn't about their play that day.

Speaker 4 (05:58):
Maybe they woke up on the wrong side the bed,
they got a sore shoulder, didn't eat well that day,
and now the performance is off a little bit, and
people reporting on it.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
So for me, it's too much coverage. Too many people
have the ability to tell and write their stories. And
I really hate it.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Yeah, right, And actually you're really like putting it into
perspective because I'm thinking here, if I'm here full a
full shift, full day, right, I'm hanging out for eight hours,
I'm gonna say about you can probably catch me fifteen
minutes out of those eight hours, I'm in a bad mood.

Speaker 3 (06:27):
It'll spread out throughout the eight hours.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
And if you catch me in either of those times
and you put a snippet of that on Moster. She's
a monster, she's so she sucks, and it's like, y'all,
I just was annoyed for one second about one thing.
I had a bad path. You're really putting it into
a perspective of like this really doesn't matter, and it's
almost it should be behind closed doors so that you
can mess up and not feel that the world is

(06:51):
watching you mess up in a training camp session, when
in reality it doesn't matter in.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
Some of those situations in training camp, just to even
break down with a further is designed for a specific
offense or defense to win that day, right, And so
if you are there that day and Justin Fields had
the bad day, I just keep saying him because I
just saw a recently.

Speaker 5 (07:09):
No.

Speaker 4 (07:09):
Yeah, but it's designed for it to be really hard
that day and him have to figure it out, and
you shouldn't be a part of that process.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
You shouldn't be, especially because it's like you're talking about
we actually wanted him to be bad because we know
the defense was excellent and they did what they were
supposed to do. It's like that's it, and you don't
know that they never worn't it like that either, they
don't put it like that. It's like when we found
out that Aaron Rodgers threw a pick in his first
stay at the Steelers, It's like, but that that doesn't
mean anything. It's Aaron Rodgers, like this is when you

(07:36):
want him to throw a picky and it is. It
just seems like it's it's way too much of the
stuff happening at training camp these once.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
It's a preseason and still it is preseasons.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
It's like, it depends how much you really want to
believe what you see when it comes to starters versus
non starters.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
But at the same time, there's guys out there that.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Are going for the job. So it's like they're going
all out. You know, don't take away from them either
because they're not the starter. They're definitely trying to be
the starter. But what sucks, Carrie is that none of
this is gonna change. Even though you are so right
on the money, none of this is gonna.

Speaker 3 (08:12):
Change for a couple of things.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
Why social media clicks, Yes, clicks, clicks, clicks, clicks, fantasy football.
I know that fantasy football is just growing and growing.
People who are not even into football are playing fantasy football.

(08:36):
My volleyball teammate Jeric, Hey, Jeric, I don't know if
he's listening. He maybe he sometimes tunes in asked me
to join his wife's all girl league, and I was like,
does your wife like football? No, she's just like, you know,
based on the name or who's cute, she'll draft. Huh, Lou,
you want me to jump in on this league? Oh?

(08:56):
I mean okay, but these girls just get together and
just for fun play fantasy football.

Speaker 3 (09:02):
There's money involved.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
I had to send money and I was like, okay,
but you guys really want me involved? Okay, fine.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
It's it's really like.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
A phenomenon what people are doing with fantasy football, and
then going hand in hand with fantasy football, gambling in general. Yeah,
gambling in general. It's just so people want every little
detailed because they think they're gonna make money off of
it on their own. That's that's why it's thriving those
details of training camp, You get all the clicks you

(09:31):
get and it's just like who who really cares about this?
But in reality, people are actually looking for that.

Speaker 4 (09:38):
Yeah, if you're if you're basing your your day, and
especially when it comes to fantasy on chining camp, it's
still ill informed.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
You're right, like it's that's part of what the culture
is now.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
But again, in these games, the only thing you really
need to worry about as a fan is if these
guys come out healthy, what this scheme is going to be,
and who's going to be the starters. Right, that's fine.
I think that's perfect coverage. Talking about their play in
training camp, it just does not make any sense. And

(10:11):
even in these games right now in preseason, the install
isn't even all the way in yet. They're running base plays,
base coverage, base defenses, base offenses. They're just trying to
get the mechanics of how everything works out for the season.
So what you're watching is obviously people that are really
talented go at it and compete to win positions and

(10:33):
do that.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
So that's fine, that's what preseason is for.

Speaker 4 (10:37):
But nobody's out there really trying to win the game
like you. Ultimately, yes, you want to win everything you do.
If you lose, it's okay, right, And so there's no
real emphasis on that.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
The overall goal. Once Week one officially starts, everyone is
trying to win the game every game right now, everyone
is trying to win the play.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
When the play with the moment, Yes, when.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
The position win right now, this because I may only
be taking a few snaps, that's all they're going for.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
The win the play win the moment, not win the game.
And so it is a.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
Different goal, it's a different team, it's a different obstacle
when once you get to week one and what you're
gonna see.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
But I just don't see it going anywhere.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
And then when you brought this topic up to me,
it really just made me think of all of these
young guys. I know they're used to social media, but
that first impression.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
Where it's like one wrong video, one.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Wrong snap, one wrong wrong coverage and the videos out there,
how they handle that negativity coming from the world all
of a sudden, right, Because now it's like you're you
were in college, yeah, but now you're an NFL player.
Now it's okay if if you get crushed on social media.
Maybe it did happen in college. But you know, I
feel like people tend to be nicer to maybe college

(11:54):
athletes than professional athletes.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
Yeah, because now they're getting paid and this is what they're.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
Supposed to do, and there's a job now I'm example,
is the Summer League game from the Chicago Bulls and
the guy that got dunked on in his face, he
was scared.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
Did you see that?

Speaker 4 (12:07):
Yes, yes, he was a rookie and that's gonna be
with him forever. And it's summer.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
League and it's so summer just that. Yeah, that's it's insane.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
It's it is insane, and I just really don't see
it going anywhere unfortunately. Now, there are some things that
happen during preseason games that I feel like are very
are very telling of the story that you can't avoid.
And I feel like something that happened this week is
making me feel like this team is in limbo. False security,

(12:38):
false security, and we're going to talk about that. On
the other side. He's Carrie, I'm Moncei and this is

Speaker 1 (13:23):
What's Up everybody, Thank you for tuning into Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
He is the all pro safety.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
Carry Roads and I am Monti Belanios and we are
just diving into the NFL preseason and training camp. Carrie
not a big fan of all the coverage that we
get too much.

Speaker 3 (13:42):
It's too much, especially.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
Because what's happening in training camp should almost be behind
closed doors to an extent.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
I like what you said of like back in the day,
where if.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
You wanted to go out of your way to read
an article to get the details of training camp, that's different,
have about it, have at it. But instead you're watching
a snippet of a moment that could be a tiny,
minuscule bad moment in someone's day, and then we're diving
into it and taking it and running with it.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
One quick thing before we wrap that up is we
were in training camp in two thousand and nine the Jets,
and we actually had a play call where it's all
out blitz on the on the goal line. This period
was set up for the offense, and so the defensive
coordinator told me, I would never do this in the game, like,
I'm always going to check to see if the quarterback's
going out to have contained. If I'm the edge rusher,

(14:31):
I got contained on this particular play. The coach said,
doesn't matter what they do, just sell out. So if
they run, if they do the play, the run the
other way, go make the tackle. It's a setup.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
It's a setup. You were told to do this.

Speaker 4 (14:43):
It fake the handoff and the quarterback runs around for
a touchdown and scores. And so after I have to
do interviews and they're like, what happened on that play
when you gave up the goal line touchdown? I'm like, listen, man,
I ain't give it up exactly without ratting. Now the coach,
I'm like, well, that was part of the period, so
I would have done something differently. But yeah, just that,
and people online on social media with see then say,

(15:04):
oh Carrie's man wreck, Lizy didn't that not true?

Speaker 1 (15:07):
It's not true. And that's a perfect example of just
like take it with a grain of salt. Take it
with a grain of salt, and let these guys develop
and let's see what happens come the actual regular season.
But something did happen already this you know, weekend preseason,
we had the Colts playing in their NFL preseason game

(15:27):
and there was a quarterback you know, I guess competition,
right that we thought when it came to the Colts
into this season with Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson, and
unfortunately for Anthony Richardson in a move that this was
against the Ravens, in a move that I described because

(15:47):
I was watching it here. It felt like a glitch
in a video game. It all happened so fast. I'm
looking at Anthony Richardson. He looks left and he's being
taken down by a guy on the right. And in
the moment, I'm like, okay, what how been here? Was
that Anthony Richardson's fault? Was there a guy who missed
to block?

Speaker 5 (16:04):
It?

Speaker 1 (16:04):
All happened so fast it felt like a glitch in
the system. Right. Unfortunately, in this moment, he dislocates his
right pinky finger on his throwing hand, goes out of
the game very early, to the point where Daniel Jones
had to come in when he wasn't supposed to play
in this game. It was supposed to be Anthony Richardson,
then Daniel Jones in game two, and yes, that was
their original plan to see he had to come in.

(16:27):
He didn't finish the game, but he finished that first
half for Anthony Richardson and Anthony Richardson, they say he's
going to be fine. Probably in the next game he's
going to play. But I feel like the Colts are
in the worst possible position. They're in limbo with Anthony Richardson.

(16:47):
Anthony Richardson has been injured a lot in his short career,
but I remember his rookie season, those four games he
was healthy, there were moments that everybody but it was
so excited about. You were just so excited to see
Anthony Richardson. And then he got hurt and he gets

(17:08):
hurt again, and we do have a little bit of
sound of after the game. Anthony Richardson after the Ravens game, I.

Speaker 5 (17:14):
Just got to get my eyes no, just be able
to know react to that. But just fatman Pros is
playing hot, you know, I just gotta be on my
p's and q's and comes to that. It was just
gonna be hard for me to see anyway because my
eyes are looking in a certain way. But how's he
got to be keyed on when when everybody bringing pressures
like that, I started was about to be the nickel,
but they brought it from the other side, So I
got to be ready.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
To just get the ball out.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Takes responsibility for it, love it as you want your
quarterback to do, because we know last year he said
he was a little tired of himself out of a game.
In this moment, he takes responsibility, which is what you
want from your quarterback. But I feel like they're in
limbo because he can't stay healthy to really see what
is he capable of. We're still wondering what Anthony Richardson

(17:56):
is capable of, which I think is worse. He hasn't
been dismissed. Trey Lance was dismissed before we saw anything.
Other people made that decision behind closed doors because of
what they saw. We see Anthony Richardson, and you see
moments of excitement and moments of like, man, this guy
can maybe do some damage for you at the quarterback position,

(18:16):
but we don't know. And because we don't know, because
it's injuries, it's not that the talent isn't there. It's
just the injuries prevent him from being on the field.
So instead of just being straight up you're bad, we
need to move on from you. They can't do that
because they don't know. This is almost like worse than
just being bad because the Colts don't know what to do.
And then if the Colts decided to move on from
Anthony Richardson, another Zea will be.

Speaker 3 (18:38):
Like, yeah, let's give a shot because the same thing
you don't know.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
Yeah, it's almost worse.

Speaker 3 (18:43):
This limbo position it is.

Speaker 4 (18:46):
You made a great point there. The thing with Anthony
Richardson even coming in was, I mean all the I
guess all the comments and the talk about him coming
in was that he was going to need time to
get better. Anyway, I think that first glimpse of him,
you know, being a starter from day one and actually
getting in those four games and playing really well, it
kind of shot the expectations through the roof for I

(19:09):
think us as fans, right, Yeah, we were enamored with
what he did in those first four.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
It looked good, even though we knew he still needed to.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
Tweak somethings find it.

Speaker 4 (19:18):
Yes, it looked good. Promising yes, and then it gets
cut short. And then you know, you're like, all right,
well we still got a little glimpse. We know that
there's some excitement there. Then he comes comes in.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
In year two and he gets hurt again again, and
then now here we go again. You know. Now, it's
a competition.

Speaker 4 (19:35):
Obviously, when you're talented, when you're as talented as he is,
you love competition. It makes it should make your game raise.
And so I was excited about saying that again. And
then the preseason he get hurts again. So I get
what you're saying. From the Colt standpoint, you're one hundred
percent right. If they give up on them too early,
somebody will give him a chance. He's twenty three years old,

(19:55):
for god sake, you know, yeah, And you don't want
to be on the other end of that as well.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
It's hard.

Speaker 4 (20:02):
I don't know how good he is going to be,
and I don't think anybody does. But when you're in
a win now business mm hmmm hmm, you have to
make decisions on winning now not.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
You should not be in limbo.

Speaker 4 (20:16):
From the standpoint of if I'm the GM and I'm
the head coach and we're packaged in this thing together.
Our window is short, right, we can't wait for him
to get it, We can't wait for him to be healthy.
We got to bring somebody in here who in the
event that he is hurt, can play. And they and
I don't think anybody thought that Daniel Jones was going
to be that guy. So the fact that that's the

(20:37):
guy they brought in, it's their fault for being in
this situation.

Speaker 1 (20:40):
They just brought in a guy who has been in
the league. Yeah, more comfortable than bringing in a rookie
or a guy who hasn't actually played several snaps. Right,
That's why they brought Daniel Jones in. He's capable. He
can do it.

Speaker 3 (20:52):
It's just can he do it really well or can
he just do it?

Speaker 1 (20:55):
That's it, And they chose, let's just get a guy
we know can do it. He could do it, and
he has to learn our system. I also on the
other side of the Anthony Richardson thing, like part of
me feels like there's so many other rookies we've seen
their leashes are so short because it's a win now situation.
His leash, I feel like, hasn't moved because they just
don't know. But at the same time, do you believe

(21:16):
he has had enough time? I think so that he
has had enough time that play, that play where he
just cuts sack, Yeah, he should. He should have despite
not being on the field as often as others, he
should have already learned that going. Isn't that something that
he should just know as a quarterback on that play

(21:36):
on that play.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Probably probably it's only it's only a five man rush.

Speaker 4 (21:40):
It's also if you slide the protection to the left,
so you call it lucky or ringo, right, that would
be the lingo. Right, that's funny, lucky, lucky you ringo, lingo,
that would be the lingo. So obviously, if he's studied
enough and he's been enough games to know and he's
been there enough to know that the protection, you know,
there's there's key giveaways when you talk about a five
man protection, right, a five man blitz, five man pressure,

(22:03):
there's going to be a taille by the DN being
in a in a tighter split than usual, There's going
to be a nickel guy that's creeping in and sometimes
he creeps in and he doesn't, sometimes he comes, sometimes
he doesn't. Like There are tail signs so what it
tells me is he's not putting enough time in in
the film room.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
Interesting because that would.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
Be the issue there, right, Like if you see and
you can even tell when you're really good at it,
you can tell by what the secondary's doing. If the
secondary is doing a two shell and they don't use
to do a two shell, then a pressure's probably coming
from the other side. So there's just basic things as
a quarterback he should know, and I don't think he
has that yet.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
He doesn't have that yet. So is it if you're
the Colts, you think there's still chants that he can
get it right, Because that's how I feel the Colts
are looking at this, that they're still looking at his
talent and that he could figure out the other stuff. Still,
that's how I feel the Colts are approaching the situation.
And I might be wrong because I don't know if
they have many other options.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
That's the part. I don't think they have other They
don't right any other options. I'll take yes.

Speaker 4 (23:03):
And so if you're banking on this guy being a
star and hoping that it pans out, you're gonna give
him a little bit more Like you said, a little
bit more of a leash, Yeah, to get this thing done,
because this is the guy you invested in.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
If it's solely based off him and then not working
out and then it is down Daniel Jones, then you're
in a bad situation anyway. In my opinion, I feel.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
Like the only way that they get out of this
limbo is if obviously he all of us gets stays
healthy and gets it. Or hypothetically, let's say he gets
another minor injury and has to go out of a
game and Daniel Jones saves the day. That is the right,
Like you need some face, I do see your face.
You don't believe that's gonna happen. But if it did,

(23:45):
that's a bad indicator for Anthony Richards. So oh yeah,
if that does happen.

Speaker 4 (23:49):
If it happens again, he's done because I mean, even
this rookie year, Joe Flacco came in and played well.
He did, and I think did he get him to
the playoffs or all most of the playoffs?

Speaker 3 (23:56):
I think it was close at the end.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
They were like waiting to see how other teams did,
like there was a chance, but they didn't control their destiny.

Speaker 2 (24:02):
I think and think about that Flaco like you just
said he's been in the league.

Speaker 4 (24:06):
He's not somebody that's gonna come in like cure your
franchise quarterback situation. But a guy that's seen it, a
guy that can get you in the right protection and
can get the ball to the right person. And that's
as simple as the Colts needed at that time, is
really good. So just think about that, that part of it.
From that perspective, If he just got the basics of

(24:28):
learning how to play quarterback in the NFL.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
I think it.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Is ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (24:36):
Who knows what.

Speaker 4 (24:37):
That part not about anything that he does physically, it's
about here, It's about between the ears, and I think
if he gets that it.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
Is it is a big if. And that's why I
feel like they're in such a limbo, which is the
worst place to be. It's a tough in any situation,
whether it's your relationship, whether it's your friendship, If you
are in a limbo, it is no bla no. But
somebody is bueno here and that's my girl. Brianna Muau

(25:07):
over at the news desk, Hey girl, Hey girl, what's
going on?

Speaker 8 (25:10):
Speaking of a quarterback limbo. I'm a SATs fan, so
I'm watching the Oh, that's a limbo.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
That is a limbo.

Speaker 8 (25:17):
Spencer Ratler is done for the day and Tyler Shuck
is cursed. Yeah, thirty three seconds left to go in
the second quarter. The Chargers are on top of the
Saints nine to zero. Trey Lance Moncey's boy, My boy,
Moncey's boy. Three for five, twenty six yards with a
five yard rushing touchdown.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
He looks pretty good.

Speaker 8 (25:38):
So what kind of world are we living when when
Trey Lance is the best quarterback on a field.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
Right now, we are living in another dimension. That is
very true.

Speaker 8 (25:48):
Earlier today, the Dolphins and Bears ended in a tie
at twenty four and an NFL news, Titans running back
Tajy Spears was diagnosed with a right high ankle spraining.

Speaker 9 (25:57):
He'll be out for a few weeks.

Speaker 8 (25:59):
According to the NFL new Work, Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford
is set to return to practice on Monday. We're watching
a really special like Brewer season. They walked it off
against the Mets seven to six. They were down five zero.
They completed the comeback. Isaac Collins walked it off. The
Mets look really bad. They've lost seven in a row
and eleven of their last twelve. The Mariners are edging
the Rays four to three.

Speaker 9 (26:19):
Bottom of the fourth. Cal Raley has hit his forty fifth.

Speaker 8 (26:22):
Home run on the year, and the Dodgers are out
scoring the Blue Jays three to one.

Speaker 9 (26:26):
Top of the fifth inning.

Speaker 8 (26:28):
Show Hey Otani with home run number forty one, just
right behind, right behind cal Raley.

Speaker 9 (26:33):
No, that'll be good, So back.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
To you guys. Thank you, Brianna Miro you're listening to
Fox Sports Radio. He is all pro safety carry rhads.
I am Manci Bolanos. I'm really glad to hear that
Cal Rawley, the big dumper.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
That's his nickname.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Yes, I heard it when I told you the first time.
You're also like, that's the name. Yeah, he's a catcher.
He's got a you know, got legs, and he's got
a butt and he's got yeah, exactly. I love that
he is still hitting home runs because remember the whole
thing with the home run derby and being a catcher,
and it's gonna fall off, and you're like, what a
what a perfect time for him to thrive when the

(27:14):
Yankees and the I do.

Speaker 2 (27:17):
It's not so hard right now.

Speaker 1 (27:19):
I'm just I'm just saying I'm just saying, what a
great time. All right? I well, I won't, I won't
dwell on. I'll move on. I'll move on. John Gruden
is trying to move on or trying to move back,
trying to do some moves. That's what he's trying to do.
He's trying to do some moves. John Gruden apparently Carrie

(27:39):
wants to coach, and we have sound of that. Right, guys, The.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
Only reason I really came here is I want to
coach again. I'm being honest with you. I do not either.
I want to coach again.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
I die to coach in the SEC.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
I would love it. I would love it.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
He was doing a speaking engagement with the Georgia Bulldogs,
so he said this to them in front of Kirby Smart. Right, Shay,
he was there too, so he that's our producer Shake
confirming that Kirby Smart is watching this. John Gruden say,
I want to come back and coach in the SEC.
You think this is totally possible for John Gruden to

(28:20):
do one?

Speaker 2 (28:20):
D per Did you just hear his energy? I was
gonna say, he is an energy guy, the guy that
pays a lot of attention to detail, and I think
he would be great for the college game.

Speaker 4 (28:31):
He's a great energy guy, and energy guy has a
great nickname Chucky already. And then I just think he
would relate to those players and give them a boost
that you know, a boost of energy, but a boost
of knowing as well, because he'll be able to teach
those guys fundamentals, teach them NFL principles and also how
to do things as a professional.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
I think he'd be great.

Speaker 4 (28:52):
I really do think that Chucky would be an amazing
college coach and SEC in particular, I think it'd be awesome.

Speaker 3 (28:59):
I will say I don't know many people.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
You know, there's people who are like they talk about
something and you're like, man, you just light up, like
you get so excited. I will say every time John
Gruden talks about football or like is talking about player,
he just sounds so legitimately happy, And that is the
first thing you need if you're going to be a coach.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
You want to be animated and you want to inspire people.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
And if you love the game the way he does,
I feel like it can absolutely inspire. And maybe because
of his experience with the NFL, the NIL happening in
college would be no surprise to him. It'd be something
he would be able to navigate and manage, something that
other coaches have struggled with.

Speaker 4 (29:42):
The college game. Got Saban there, they got Belichick there.
Now why not Gruden?

Speaker 1 (29:47):
Why not Gruden?

Speaker 2 (29:49):
Why not?

Speaker 1 (29:49):
Why not Gruden? Gruden isn't the only one that would
like to actually come back to coaching. And we can
dive into that on the other side of this. So
let's get We'll dive into that. Let's get ready for that.
He's carry on, Moncey, and this is Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
What's Up? Everybody Happy Sunday? Thank you for tuning in
a Fox Sports Radio. He is the alpro safety Carry Roads.
You can find him on ex Twitter at Carrie twenty
five Roads or on x at Carry Roads. You can
find me Monty Bologos across social media at Moncey Bolago's.
We just dove into the idea that John Gruden not

(30:36):
the idea. He said it. He said it, he yelled it.
He wants to come and coach in the SEC, yes,
telling the Georgia Bulldogs in a meeting that they had
that he would love to come back and coach in
the SEC, come back to coaching. Essentially, he's not the
only one apparently, Uh Carrie, there's another guy out there

(30:58):
that this a week also is eyeing a return to
coaching in college. Jimbo Fisher, who remember had a seventy
six million dollar buy out to after he was fired
not so bad from.

Speaker 10 (31:12):
He's doing fine, you guys, he is fine, who was
fire from Texas A and M in twenty twenty three,
was on the Trials to Triumph Triumph podcast this past week.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
By the way, Jimbo Fisher is also an analyst for
the ACC Network, So it's.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Only he is.

Speaker 1 (31:29):
Yes, he's working, and he has seventy six million dollars
also okay, but that he said this in the podcast
earlier this week, that he's actually looking for the right
situation to get back into coaching at the college level.
He says, he's only fifty nine, he's in great shape,
he's healthy, he's had success. Yes, he had success at
Florida State and then went to Texas A and M

(31:50):
and had success. It just wasn't maybe the success that
they thought they were going to get. But I remember Carrie,
once he was fired, the sports out there came out
of the type of coach he was, the type of
person that he was leading this team, and that he
was a bit stubborn, that maybe his ego got in

(32:13):
the way. He didn't hire an offensive coordinator until his
sixth year, right because he right, you're saying, right, no, no, no,
that's crazy, because he liked making all the calls. He
made every single call if it pertained to his team,
he was calling the shots, and if you ever questioned

(32:33):
it or pushed back on a decision he was making,
he wasn't necessarily welcoming of that or nice about it.
And so it just wasn't working out. His stubbornness, his ego,
it just wasn't working out. Texas A and M chose
to let him go for seventy six million dollars. And
so I feel like, isn't this screaming you yourself got

(32:58):
fired because of the person you are? Yep, not you
as a coach, Yes, you, the person you are is
the reason you got fired. Yeah, can he come and
still coach because he is a name? John Gruden is
a name. Jimbo Fisher is a name and a name
that has won. Yes, so as a coach or as
a team, as a school and you hear this, are

(33:19):
you like hmm? Maybe maybe he is. His ego can
be put aside. Maybe he misses it so much now
that he's willing to adjust to the way college football
is being played. Do you believe in that? Can you
teach an old dog new tricks?

Speaker 2 (33:33):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (33:34):
All right?

Speaker 11 (33:34):
Relationships matter?

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Okay, all right, relationships matter, but setbacks are everything. When
you're able to get humbled and you go in a
situation where you just won a championship of Florida State.
Now you leave Florida State for you know, you think
you think, you think greener.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
Pastor Mark Glory, deeper pockets, this pocket.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Sec deeper pockets, right, which, what's true?

Speaker 4 (33:58):
He got paid, he got what he was looking for,
He got all the things that he needed to succeed.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
He didn't succeed.

Speaker 4 (34:06):
So I love that for him, because again, when you're
sitting high and you don't have real life experiences happening
to you where you have to get back on your
horse and actually change some things about you.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
I've told you before. I don't associate myself with people
like that.

Speaker 4 (34:25):
People that actually go through the fire have to come
out on the other end and then be a better person.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
I want to know that story. So I'm actually rooting
for Jimbo. He had a set back. He wasn't particularly
a good person in a situation. Now he got called
out on it. No, we're not going to keep you around.
You're fired, all right? Cool? What did he learn?

Speaker 4 (34:46):
If he learned something I would want to know about
all that as he goes to this next job.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
And then for me, he's a good coach.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
Obviously, seasons at Texas A and M forty five and.

Speaker 4 (34:57):
Twenty five exactly in the SEC with you know, like
I said, expectations probably for him high, but for him
coming in even higher. So the fact that he still
won and just didn't get the big one, that's okay,
it's SEC.

Speaker 2 (35:10):
He's going to get a chance. I hope he goes
to a chance. I hope he goes to a team
where it's maybe back in acc or somewhere like that
where he can kind of re establish himself.

Speaker 4 (35:19):
But I want to know if he changes, because that's
the big thing with life in these in these moments.
He's a good enough coach, but now understand that you
cannot be an egomaniac in this day and age. You
have to delegate power correctly. And I think he would.
I'm sure he learned that.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
He's he learned under Kirch Saban, who is the ultimate
that you would see as an egomaniac at first, but
kind of as he went through the years, kind of
mellowed out in Alabama and kind of delegated power to
different people, delegated power to Jimbo Fisher on the offense
side of the ball in Alabama, Like, you cannot do

(35:57):
it all by yourself. You need you need to have
a deeper understanding of that, and I hope he does now.

Speaker 1 (36:02):
So maybe now he's flexible.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
I hope so.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
And that's what he has seen, because you're right, you
see somebody like Nick Saban who left the game and
doesn't seem to want to come back.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
He was already humbled in the NFL.

Speaker 1 (36:13):
Yeah, in the NFL, right exactly. He maybe was humbled
in the end of it.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
I don't know that.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
And he really doesn't want to come back because he
doesn't like the structure of the way college football is
right now. Jimbo Fisher is fully aware of the structure
that is going on right now, and maybe he has
learned to be a little bit more flexible. But I
just the name is too big for a school to
not be like, wait, who exactly what.

Speaker 2 (36:38):
Jimbo wants to And he's not going to need any
more money and.

Speaker 1 (36:41):
He's not gonna need any more money. He'll take less
because if you really want to get back in the game,
you're just gonna get your foot in the game. I'm
just surprised because when I when I saw when I
remember his exit, I was like, oof, you've burned some bridges. Oh,
you've left the bad taste in people's mouths because of
your personality, because of your character. Even though I'm a
big fan of hardass coaches, I'm a big fan of

(37:03):
hard ass coaches, it just seemed like he was beyond
a hard ass coach, a guy that didn't want to
be flexible when it came to the best for the
team in the sport. And that's the Vibey God from
all the reports up the three, he was fired, but
too big of a name to not be interested both
him and John Gruden.

Speaker 4 (37:21):
I'll give you a quick example on a guy that
was my coach, coach Patrino, Bobby Patrino. How much controversy
has he had in this in his career when he
first got to Louisville when I was there, talk about
like an egomaniac and doing everything the way he wanted to.

Speaker 2 (37:38):
Such a great coach. I love him, love it. I
love a big fan. Please yell us, well, I'm saying
it that way.

Speaker 4 (37:43):
Like he told me right away, like you need to
do this, this to be I'm like, okay, I applied it.

Speaker 2 (37:49):
Look at where my career went. Right. He has all
the incidents.

Speaker 4 (37:52):
He goes to Arkansas, has the incident, and people are like,
he's never going to coach.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
Again another game. Now, if you're a enough.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Coach and you do show change, you will get an opportunity.
He's back coaching and he's such a great guy now
and it's such a good thing to see. And it's
Jimbo Fisher.

Speaker 3 (38:09):
Can get it done, can get it done.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
He's only fifty nine, like he said, so it's like
he could have been I like that, you said, humbled. Yes,
I know. It's weird because he walked away with seventy
six million dollars. So it's like, well, you're not being
humbled that way because you have all this money. But
if all you really wanted to do was coach and
you just have the money and you can't coach, You're
not You're missing out. I have fulfilled, You're not fulfilled.
And that's what I think you're saying. He's not fulfilled.

(38:32):
That maybe now he can become a little bit more
flexible and help, but team succeed because he knows how
to win, Yes, and why not let him come back
and win.

Speaker 4 (38:44):
If you're a little if you're just if you're Wake
Forward or NC State or like any I'm not saying
those those coaches.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
Of course, Jimbo Fisher coming to your team.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
It says I'm willing to do it for a friendly deal. Yes, yes,
no questions as would you take Jimbo Fisher or John Gruden.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
I'm thinking Gruden.

Speaker 1 (39:04):
You're taking Gruden?

Speaker 2 (39:05):
Is it?

Speaker 1 (39:06):
Is it the fiery excitement that comes whenever he talks
about football that's selling you on it?

Speaker 2 (39:11):
Yes, just because I'm thinking college college kids want to
be motivated. NFL guys for the most part don't need
to be motivated now, And I say that in the
way that and in high school, college the ranks, you
have this testosterone, you have this energy about being being
the best version of yourself every day. NFL has it

(39:32):
as well, but it's so over the top, so much
like youthful exuberance. I think it coach like Gruden like
fits that perfectly.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
I think you hit it right on the head. It's
a little bit different. But the everybody wants to be inspired, right,
But I think like in the NFL, maybe the inspiration
happens more on a personal level.

Speaker 2 (39:49):
Yes, you have to be you got to be self more.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
You've got to be but like, like the coach is
going to have a more personal conversation with you to
inspire you. When at college is like, we're gonna make
this big, I'm gonna inspire all of you.

Speaker 3 (39:59):
I'm gonna inspire a team as a whole.

Speaker 1 (40:01):
I'm gonna talk to you privately, Dereck Henry and inspire
you on the side.

Speaker 2 (40:04):
Exactly the roster the NFL gets old.

Speaker 3 (40:07):
It gets old because you've been seeing it.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
That makes perfect sense. It looks like we're gonna have
both Fisher and Ruden coaching in college when well, we'll
find out about that I think I've changed my mind
on Travis Hunter Carry. I'm very excited about it. I
just I thought I was feeling one way, and now
I'm feeling a different way. So We're gonna dive into
Travis Hunter next. Don't go anywhere. He's Carrie on Moncey.

(40:31):
I thought I was rooting for the Unicorn, but I
may not be rooting for the Unicorn anymore. Carrie and
welcome in everybody, Happy Sunday, Brienna Miro. Don't look at
me like that. We'll explain in just a second. I
am Manzi. He is the oft pro safety Carry Roads
and you can find him on ex Twitter at Carrie

(40:51):
twenty five Roads, or you can find him on Instagram
and just Carry Roads. You can find me across social
media at Moncey. Bolano says. We continue to dive into
this NFL preseason. You know, again, take it with the
grain of salt. It is just the preseason. We're getting
ready for a Week one, but it is still fun
to talk about and there's a lot of excite, exciting

(41:13):
storylines that are happening before our eyes, one that I'm
just so excited for, and I'm still excited.

Speaker 3 (41:21):
I just think I'm changing.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
My perception on it. Perspective on it. That's what I'm
trying to say, perspective on it. I think I'm changing
my perspective on it. Travis Hunter. Everybody's been waiting to
see what he's gonna do. Is he gonna play defense?
Is he gonna play offense? And the Jags are out here? No,
he's gonna do both, going all in, which I love.
You know, you trade up for him? Yeah? I love

(41:45):
the way they're diving in full head first. Let's do it.
You're gonna play both sides of the ball. He played yesterday, right,
he was yesterday or two nights ago, whatever. He just
played a preseason game. Caught his targets when he was
on offense, had a couple of shimmies here and there,
missed a tackle when he was on defense, of course, yes,
but played twelve offensive snaps eight defensive snaps. After the game,

(42:07):
he was even asked about that mistackle and how long
it was gonna take for him to forget about it.
Handled it like a pro Travis Hunter, Like, there's something
about him talking about John Gruden in the last hour
and how excited he gets when talking about football, like
you could just hear it. Travis Hunter is all smiles, right,
no matter what you're talking. This guy asked him how

(42:28):
long it's gonna take for him to get over a mistackle,
and with a smile, he's like, what, already over it?
Like we're moving on, no big deal. Was asked about
the nerves and he's like, I get nervous before every game,
but the nerves calm down after the first snap, all
with a damn smile. Travis Hunter, everybody is.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
Rooting for you, and I'm rooting for you.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
I was just rooting for the Unicorn to do this
in the NFL the way Shoho Tawani is doing it
in baseball. But obviously when you see it in action
in the NFL, not in college, it is a little different.
It puts things into perspective, like a lot a lot.

(43:07):
He looked great. I think on defense he may want
to gain a little weight, right, bulk up a little
bit more, gill a little bit more muscle, maybe on
the defensive side of the ball. But in reality, I
was like, if I am Travis Hunter and you tell me,
because he wants to play, he doesn't want to get
off the field. He wants that right, and you tell me, like,

(43:28):
you can do defense and offense. We're going to utilize
you on both the entire game. He's going to be
so excited. But then let's say it comes down to
a final play. He's been playing the whole game, and
you want to take him out one way or the
other because his legs are gased'. That's now where I'm thinking,

(43:51):
And I don't think I had thought that before of
coming down to the final minute of a game. It's
a tie game and you either need him on the
offensive side of the wall or defensive side of the wall.
But you tell him your legs are a little gas
sit out. How can you possibly make that decision after
telling him he can play both sides?

Speaker 2 (44:09):
Right?

Speaker 1 (44:10):
I would be mad if I was Travis Hunter. And
so I feel like, if you allow him to play,
then you're gonna have to just let him play the
entire game if he wants it. If you're going to
allow him to do it to now, I'm saying, the
simple answer is to tell him, no, we're.

Speaker 3 (44:25):
Gonna focus on one or the other.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
I didn't feel this way originally, Carrie, Huh. I didn't
want I did not feel this way. I was like,
he could do it, he was doing it in college.
Why can't he do it now? It is just different.
It is not the same. And even though it was
so exciting to see it, you were just like, all right, no,
but if we're thinking about winning, and we're thinking about

(44:49):
actually winning eighteen games, we've got to preserve your energy
and your legs and need you at the end of
the game for whatever. And it's like, he can maybe
get a couple snaps right on the defensive end, but
but at that point, is that what he wants to
do that occasionally?

Speaker 2 (45:07):
Who cares what he wants?

Speaker 4 (45:09):
That's this is the thing, Like we give so much
player empowerment right now, Yes we do.

Speaker 11 (45:15):
Who cares?

Speaker 1 (45:16):
Who cares?

Speaker 2 (45:16):
It's best for your team and for your franchise. And
so I've been on the record, you know, I've said
that the whole time.

Speaker 4 (45:22):
He is no, no, he is not going to be
able to do this. The NFL is too skilled, the
NFL is too smart. Like again, what you just said
as a game kind of pressive is, yeah, I don't
care how good of an athlete you are. If you
have too many snaps, the propensity to be tired, to
be hurt, whatever. All that stuff just gets elevated, It

(45:45):
gets ramped up like it's just part of what we do.

Speaker 2 (45:48):
Physical exertion is a real thing.

Speaker 4 (45:51):
And so again, like you just said, scenario where he's
played the whole game and now you got to go
on a two minute drive for the other team to
win a game, and he's in that corner.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
You don't think. I don't care how good he is.

Speaker 4 (46:00):
Any quarterback that skilled with their number one receiver, if
he's checking them, they're not gonna attack him obsessed.

Speaker 2 (46:07):
It is a must.

Speaker 4 (46:09):
If I look over and see that he's he had
forty snaps on offense and forty forty snaps on defense,
that means he's on the field eighty snaps. My team,
my receiver has only been on for forty and even
if not even forty because it's probably been subbed out
on a couple of plays, he's fresh and ready to
go on a gutta have it drive. If he's your
number one corner, he's garding the number one receiver, he
is gonna get toasted.

Speaker 2 (46:30):
Yeah, And I just don't care. I'm telling you. The
only way this is gonna work is if he has
a package on offense or defense, whichever one he's not
starting on. If he has a package on that defense
or that offense, that sounds like it can be done,
and I will. I would be down for that, playing
the whole game.

Speaker 4 (46:50):
I don't care who you are. Savat Hunter is a
great he's talented. It will not be done.

Speaker 3 (46:55):
It will not be done.

Speaker 1 (46:56):
I mean, his own quarterback has his feelings on the situation.

Speaker 6 (47:01):
Have you figured out yet how you're gonna come to coaches?
You go, all right, I don't care what you're doing
on defense, but I need this guy sixty seventy taps
a game.

Speaker 12 (47:08):
Yeah, I mean that's uh, we're trying to We're getting there.
We're getting there. Obviously he's playing a little bit of
both ways, and he's so talented man, it's it's hard
to keep him off the field. Selfishly, yeah, I definitely
want him on offense more. That's almost like do you
want to you want to come catch touchdowns or you
want to maybe break up a pass or to a
game like you know, that's a decision you got to make.
So now he'll he'll make plays no matter where he's at. Honestly,

(47:29):
and of course as a quarterback, I hope he plays
more offense, but you know, wherever he needs to play
to make our team better, because he will make us better,
is what's going to happen.

Speaker 2 (47:38):
Trevor Lawrence just told us.

Speaker 1 (47:40):
Trevor Lawrence, he just.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
Said it a little bit. He's playing a little bit
both ways.

Speaker 2 (47:46):
Did you hear that?

Speaker 4 (47:46):
Yes, So in the words that he said, like everything,
he didn't try to say that. That was just something
that kind of came out automatically. But that has to
be the plan. It's not going to be full go
on both sides.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
And so if it's not full go, I guess that's
why I'm changing my mind because it's either to me,
the excitement would be full goal, right, But then I'm like,
this is not sustainable. It's not sustainable. And that's I
think the realization that I've come to when I was
just excited about it at first. Ye, but in reality
it's a lot. It's a lot, And Trevor Lawrence is

(48:22):
right on the money. It's like, I want to focus
on you so that we can also develop this connection,
this relationship as best as possible, like when we are
on sync to the t right, Like that's what Trevor
Lawrence wants. Even though I think the answer is clear
of what they should do right, that team is not

(48:43):
going to make that announcement. They're never why because they
need for you to think he's gonna play both sides.

Speaker 2 (48:51):
It's a competitive advantage.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
It's not just that, but for the fans, who is
the star of the Jags. There's not a star.

Speaker 2 (49:01):
Well, obviously trouble.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
Along obviously, yeah, as a name as their quarterback, but
like they need that for the fan base power. They
need that for the excitement of the conversation. So people
are gonna go to the game and it's like, Oh,
is he gonna play with side? Like that's still gonna
be exciting. Even though I think they're gonna make the
right choice and limit him to strictly one side of

(49:23):
the ball to keep his legs fresh.

Speaker 3 (49:25):
I don't think they're.

Speaker 1 (49:26):
Gonna say that out loud, just how they've handled it
so far of saying like, he's gonna go out there,
he's gonna play both sizes the ball.

Speaker 3 (49:31):
We're good, that's our guy.

Speaker 1 (49:33):
They're gonna keep that going just to keep the excitement
and the talk and the fans happy when they go
to games without knowing good point.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
But I'd rather I'd rather him be a master at
one than be a master of none.

Speaker 1 (49:44):
Jack of all trades, but a master of none.

Speaker 4 (49:47):
Yeah, this game is too it's too fickle. I mean,
every every int really counts. And I know a lot
of like cliche terms, like any given Sunday, every inch counts,
all those things a cliche, but they really do mean
a lot when you're in it, because it's true, every

(50:08):
int matters. Like if you take a false step one
way and you're off by a millimeter and you reach
out and miss the ball and the guy catches it.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
It's that delicate.

Speaker 4 (50:19):
And if you're tired and don't have your legs or
you don't know exactly what's going on, because that's the other.

Speaker 2 (50:25):
Thing he has to learn two playbooks too.

Speaker 1 (50:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (50:28):
Yeah, So again, it's a lot.

Speaker 1 (50:30):
A lot aside, just from the physical to the mental. Right,
And didn't you mentioned to me to put you not
to put you on the spot because you're a you know,
a dual athlete, right and you played basketball and football
and you couldn't keep weight on because of the running
that you did from basketball. Look at you, yes, and

(50:54):
connecting things together. So if he wanted to bulk up
for defense. Ain't that offense and running like that isn't
gonna help.

Speaker 2 (51:03):
No, No, And he was never like a big taps right.

Speaker 3 (51:06):
He was not a big tackler. He was more just
disrupting tackles. But that wasn't his thing.

Speaker 2 (51:12):
But in the NFL again, that's the other thing. They're
going to gain plan for him and they're gonna make
him tackle. It's gonna be ugly if he doesn't get
his weight up and his strength up. And he's not
a fool go right, because your weakness they're coming after it.
In the NFL. It's it's a bigger game plan thing
than college.

Speaker 1 (51:30):
Yeah, but I was just thinking of that of your story.
He can't. He wouldn't be able to keep the weight
on that he's trying to keep on if he's playing
as much as he is, And so, like you said,
game plan against him, yes, would be number one. If
I'm playing.

Speaker 2 (51:44):
We're gonna make you work.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
We're gonna make you work. If you guys want to
do this, fine, we're gonna make you work. We're gonna
make Adam kaplan work. Yes, we are on the other
side of this. We're gonna talk to our NFL Insider
about Travis Hunter, about Shador Sanders and everything else happening
in the NFL this preseason. He's been at a couple
of training camps as well, so we're gonna get into

(52:06):
that next. Don't go anywhere. He's Carrie on Moncey and
you are listening to Fox Sports Radio. We are getting
this party started on this Sunday here at Fox Sports Radio,
Mary mac on the ones in twos, we are getting
this party started. Carrie Rhodes, All Pro Safety. I'm Anty Beilanios,
NFL All Pro. Thank you, Thank you. I appreciate that,

(52:31):
you know, diving into this NFL preseason. We are gonna
get Adam Kaplan joining us in just a second. But
I'm gonna take this opportunity, I think carry to maybe
apologize to Derek Jeter. Is this my opportunity to follow this?
Is this the time I would just like to say

(52:57):
that I may have come really hard on Derek Cheater
for missing the Old Timers game at Yankee Stadium. I
thought he should be there, and I'm not saying I
my apology is not one hundred percent apology, but a
little bit of an apology. I still think you should
have been there. But now that Marianna Rivera has torn

(53:22):
his acl oh, people sit down and participating in the
old timer's game, I feel that maybe I shouldn't have
been so hard on Derek Jeter.

Speaker 4 (53:35):
Yeah, well Mariano was Tarranny's achilles deren. Jeter was popping
balloons with his.

Speaker 1 (53:41):
Daughter, his daughter and intact. Yeah, because he's not having surgery,
and I cannot believe this happened, to be honest with you,
And now I.

Speaker 4 (53:58):
I'm just shaking my head at you because you were
all the raised too. You're upset about Jeter not showing up,
and I was more than upset.

Speaker 1 (54:05):
Yeah, I was offended, Like I was gonna be there,
like I had a ticket to the game.

Speaker 3 (54:09):
That's how offended I was.

Speaker 1 (54:10):
I just like, he has to be present. He's got
to be there. It's the anniversary of the team and
they haven't done this in so long, and he is
the guy, he is the Yankee. But Mariana Rivera was
playing center field.

Speaker 2 (54:25):
Harry, that makes me laugh, and not the injury.

Speaker 1 (54:31):
When you I thought, I was like, how did he
tear his night jerseys?

Speaker 6 (54:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (54:34):
What are you doing?

Speaker 2 (54:35):
He must have been throwing flame balls out there.

Speaker 1 (54:37):
No, he was in center field and he took a
funky step and it went down. He went down. He
also had a hit like he was batting, and like,
it's just man, when that happens, you're just like, forget it.
Don't ever do this again. Don't ever ask for an
old timer's game.

Speaker 11 (54:57):
Listen.

Speaker 4 (54:57):
The only old timers game that I'm going to be
a part of if it's on Xbox or something like,
if we can, if we can simulate the game and
I can play my position on there, I play it
like a tip top like it'll be tip top.

Speaker 2 (55:08):
But if it's on the field, count me out too.
I'm on board with Jeter. I'm not doing that or
the other thing.

Speaker 4 (55:15):
Remember I told you off air playing like flag football
games in football leagues.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
Now I am. I am like Benny Testaverdi in the pocket.
I do not move. You play quarterback.

Speaker 1 (55:26):
Yes, that's it. I'm not running them around traditional pocket
and we ain't shiman anywhere.

Speaker 2 (55:32):
No, you got me, you got hands up. I'll drop
the ball if you want me to.

Speaker 1 (55:38):
I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it. When you
texted me the news and I.

Speaker 3 (55:42):
Saw, I was like, man, now I got.

Speaker 1 (55:45):
To apologize, apologize Derek Jeter coming out so hard and
just not thinking that really something like that could happen.

Speaker 3 (55:53):
I just did think, you know.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
What I'm saying there might be smart.

Speaker 1 (55:57):
Maybe he was onto something. He was like, No, these
guys are gonna get competitive, and I don't know how
to not be competitive, because I do understand that as well.
I cannot not be competitive. No, I'm gonna go even
if it's like, oh no, don't go all out. No,
I don't know any other option.

Speaker 2 (56:11):
Oh you know what, we can blame Derek Jeter because
Mariano had to play center field, so they were missing one.

Speaker 1 (56:17):
See back to blaming Derek Jeter for not being available,
not being ready. Well, there we are, there we are,
and it seems as though, unfortunately our producer Shay telling
us that Adam Kaplan has something happens, so Adam will
not be joining us today. Don't worry, guys, I know,
I know it is unfortunate that he can't dive us

(56:38):
into those camps he's been a part of. But you know,
maybe he'll call us back. Maybe we'll see. If not,
we'll talk to him soon. But there have been a
lot of pre we as we end one of the
preseason right week one, Yeah, this is it. We're coming
down to the final game. We're almost done, literally five
minutes left in the third quarter between the Saints and
the Chargers. Brianna Miro will have an update for us
in just a little bit. Has anything stood out to

(57:01):
you when it comes to the NFL preseason so far?
Aside from the obvious once Travis Hunter Shoudrew Sanders, which.

Speaker 3 (57:08):
We are going to talk about, don't worry.

Speaker 1 (57:09):
We just didn't want to rush through doors, So we'll
talk about that a little bit. Has anyone else stood
out to you?

Speaker 2 (57:16):
Not really? I mean again for me, does.

Speaker 3 (57:18):
Anyone ever stand out to you in preseason?

Speaker 11 (57:20):
No?

Speaker 3 (57:20):
Okay, okay, no, no, no, And.

Speaker 4 (57:22):
I say that, yeah, very I mean very aware of
some of these young kids are playing their hearts out.
So I don't want to discredit them man totally and
make it seem like it's.

Speaker 2 (57:31):
Not a deal, because it is a deal.

Speaker 4 (57:33):
It can build confidence for a lot of these guys
and give them this feeling of security that they belong
and so it is a big deal. But as far
as somebody's sticking out in the preseason, I don't think
that will ever be a real thing for me. But
I think the team aspect of this, and I think philosophy.
A lot of times you hear coaches saying what they

(57:54):
want their team to be and how they want to
identify their teams to the world look at when you
look at like the Jets, and obviously I have a
close affiliation with him, But when you talk about Aaron
Glenn and you talk about what he wants to do
as a team, he wants to be tough, he wants
to be strong in the trenches, and he wants to
run the ball. Everything that he preached in Game one

(58:17):
they did. And so when somebody says that and they
stick to that, that's impressive to me because when you
get in the game sometimes things change.

Speaker 2 (58:24):
But no, like, this is who we're going to be
and we're going to show you and from day one
he's done that. So yeah, and that's what you want
to see.

Speaker 1 (58:31):
That's it's small goals, small tasks that you want to
complete for the big picture. And I agree with you
that we have to take everything with the grain of
salt when it comes to this preseason. But one thing
that I feel like we shouldn't take with the grain
of salt is Cam Little hitting that seventy yard field goal.

Speaker 2 (58:46):
That was huge.

Speaker 1 (58:47):
That's because that can actually happen in in the regular season,
and when you think of a seventy guard that that.

Speaker 3 (58:59):
Is a weapon in itself.

Speaker 1 (59:01):
Like I only have to get not even halfway through
and we are in a possible scoring position. Yep, that's nuts.

Speaker 2 (59:09):
That's a big one.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
And I see our producer Shay Over They're nodding, Shay
you agree, Yeah, I was, so.

Speaker 11 (59:15):
I was recording. I mean, I wasn't recording, but I
was editing yesterday when it happened. And it was funny
because when the person that was on the call was
actually Bucky Brooks and they were like, what, like wait,
this actually has a chance to go in, and like
they didn't even think it was gonna Like they weren't
even like taking it seriously at all when it first happened.
So it's something that like they weren't even expecting it
to go in, and no one was expecting it to
go in. It was absurd. This little kid, he doesn't

(59:37):
even look older than he's sixteen. I swear he's beaming
it as hard as he can bolts. It's seventy yard.
It was insane. I've never seen it in my life,
but no, it's the call was great. I'm gonna pull
it up for you guys right now, so you guys Bucky.

Speaker 1 (59:51):
Brooks because I didn't know Bucky was covering that. But
it just seems almost unfair, like if that becomes a
bit sixty, if sixty yards becomes normal, sixty.

Speaker 2 (01:00:04):
Is becoming normal, but it's nuts, it is it becomes on.

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
It's on that trajectory. Yeah, when sixty just becomes a
normal staple where it's like I'm actually looking for the
kicker that is making fifty five and over, that's nuts, nuts, nuts, nuts,
because then that alleviate's a lot of pressure when it
comes to a close game with not a lot of time,
You're like, all of a sudden, I have a kicker.

(01:00:29):
I can get us there. It's nuts And it seems
like I didn't think we could get you know, watching
Justin Tucker every year just get like a little further
and further every single year. He saved a lot of
my fantasy football teams, like not gonna lie justin kicker,
Justin Tucker, and I never thought it could get further
and further and now we're at seventy.

Speaker 2 (01:00:51):
And see the thing is you just said it. It's
the preseason, so we can try this. We can try
it in the regular game. If that hadn't happened yet,
would it would it have taken place? I'm not sure
because there are there have been guys in the league. Again,
we talked about unicorn situations and just the methodology of
playing professional Sebastian Jennikowski when I played, could kick the

(01:01:12):
ball seventy yards if you wanted to, And so like
the fact that he really didn't get those opportunities. Now
you see a kid doing and you're like sea coach.
He couldn't turn it, like we never know until it's done.
So that's cool that he was able to have that moment.
That is a big moment.

Speaker 1 (01:01:26):
Cameron Little twenty one years old. Here is the call
Bucky Brooks, Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:01:31):
Smoked, I gotta shot.

Speaker 11 (01:01:34):
You just kicked a shot? Are you kidding me?

Speaker 12 (01:01:39):
Crazy?

Speaker 11 (01:01:41):
That's crazy record, that would be an NFL resident in
the first half. Holy smoke. That's unbelievable. Was animated and
I've ever heard Bucky.

Speaker 3 (01:01:54):
I've never seen Bucky like that.

Speaker 1 (01:01:55):
In fact, Bucky was just in studio a couple of
days ago.

Speaker 3 (01:01:58):
It was he's he's just like you calm, cool and collecting.

Speaker 11 (01:02:01):
It might be a little bit more calm.

Speaker 1 (01:02:04):
Absolutely.

Speaker 11 (01:02:04):
I had him at four five am though, and he
was yeah, well no, he was like.

Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
He's an.

Speaker 11 (01:02:18):
He's great. He had a great call. I was happy
to hear him.

Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
That was and the excitement because it's again, this is
one of those things where it's like, no, this can happen.
This is something that you can expect or hope that
somebody could do in a game. Even though this was
pre season. As we've discussed taking it with the grain
of salt, that was one thing where I just was like, huh,
that could be a difference maker.

Speaker 3 (01:02:35):
That is a game changer.

Speaker 1 (01:02:36):
It is okay. And the fact that again it keeps
pushing the boundaries or the limit every single time. Like
if in five years I'm hearing about an eighty yur
field goal, that's it. I'm gonna be like, yo, I'm
gonna have a kid just to teach him how to kick.
Like literally, I got soccer in my family. I get
they could kick. Like I'm just gonna I'm gonna invest
in that. Let's invest on Breen Miranda Muros update. That's

(01:03:02):
what we're gonna do. Brianna Murrol at the news desk, I.

Speaker 8 (01:03:07):
Think I spoke a little too soon about Tyler Shuck
you guys, did you?

Speaker 3 (01:03:10):
Yes, Wow, that's what happens.

Speaker 1 (01:03:11):
Yeah, Well, you get excited it's your team.

Speaker 9 (01:03:14):
Yes, he actually did score a touchdown.

Speaker 8 (01:03:18):
The Saints are still down to the Chargers ten to seventeen,
less than a minute to go in the third coiler.
In the third quarter, tre A Lance five for eleven
thirty seven yards that one rushing touchdown.

Speaker 9 (01:03:29):
He looks obviously really good.

Speaker 8 (01:03:31):
But again, preseason I always have to say, okay, preseason,
let's just be real here.

Speaker 12 (01:03:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:03:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:03:35):
Earlier today, the Dolphins embarrassed to end in a tie
at twenty four. In Major League Baseball, the Brewers walked
it off against the Mets seven to six. They've won
nine in a row. The Ashtros beat the Yankee seven
to one. New York has lost seven of their last nine.
I'm so sorry, Carrie.

Speaker 9 (01:03:51):
The Mariners are edging the race five to three.

Speaker 8 (01:03:53):
Top of the sixth inning, cal Rawley did hit his
forty fifth home run of the year. The Dodgers are
outscoring the blue Jays one top of the fifth thing.

Speaker 1 (01:04:01):
Oh no, I'm so sorry. Actually the blue Jays squired.

Speaker 8 (01:04:04):
Okay, so the Dodgers are on top of the blue
Jays three to two, bottom of the seventh inning. Show,
Hey o Tawny with his forty first home run of
the season.

Speaker 1 (01:04:11):
And yes, that is pretty much everything you guys back
to you. Thank you. Brianna Muro she's a Saints fan
watching her team figure it out, right, they're figuring it out.

Speaker 9 (01:04:22):
I and Limbo too, I mean like there.

Speaker 1 (01:04:25):
No, I think they're in a better position. Really, they
don't know, They truly don't. They do not. They're literally
testing everything out. They're throwing things to the wall to
see what sticks. Ellen Moore, first time coach with the Saints.

Speaker 11 (01:04:37):
Yeah, all of that.

Speaker 3 (01:04:38):
They're not in the same situation as the Colts.

Speaker 1 (01:04:41):
Have thrown things to the wall and they've kind of
stuck and they're like, oh no, it's falling. No wait,
it's still stuck. No, it's that's almost worse. If you

to ask you this. I'm just want quick quick thoughts.
What is your position on preseason? Like you think players
should play like starting players. You think quarterbacks should get
out there. Caleb Williams did not play for the Chargers.

(01:05:26):
How do you feel like should he go out there
and get a quarter in? Joe Burrow Jamar Chase got
a quarter in. We know Andy Reid likes to use
the starters for a little bit. How is your feeling
on that.

Speaker 4 (01:05:35):
Yeah, that's a good question. I think it's the philosophy
of the coach. Right there were with herm Edwards, like
the starters didn't play when I played with him, my
man Jennie game, we played the first series and we
come out. Also, I think the older you get, if
you're a veteran, sometimes you want to protect that player
and to protect their safety.

Speaker 2 (01:05:57):
So I understand that part of it as well. But
when you're a young quarter back that needs reps, he
should probably plays also.

Speaker 4 (01:06:03):
Like I said, it's so dangerous right now because everybody
is actually watching these quarterbacks and these players and judging
them so harshly right now. So if Caleb Williams went
out there and didn't play well in that first drive
or whatever, just imagine what.

Speaker 3 (01:06:19):
We've been talking about, what meriticism would be.

Speaker 2 (01:06:21):
So I understand why why it's that's the philosophy. I
think it can go either way. I do think you
have to play a little and I do know when
I was playing that third game is the real dress rehearsal.

Speaker 4 (01:06:34):
So a lot of starters will play in that third game.
So be a little patient, let these guys get their reps.
But the third game is definitely like a dress rehearsal.

Speaker 1 (01:06:41):
Okay, And I like how you kind of pointed out
protecting your player right from entry, but also protecting him
from scrutiny. From scrutiny that would be, as you've mentioned, unfair,
unfair scrutiny that is continuing to happen from training camp
to preseason. Because this is there are goals that these
teams are have on their minds, small goals. Like you said,

(01:07:04):
their goal might not be to win the game. No,
the goal is to see you, to see you. Let's
do this, play little goals.

Speaker 4 (01:07:11):
Let's see when you find a diamond in the rough
in some of these picks that we have, some of
these free agents. We picked up some of these, you know,
these guys who will practice. Guy player, Let's see if
they can really play in game situations. But also let's
come out of this situation healthy. Yeah, that's the biggest
thing right now.

Speaker 1 (01:07:26):
I like that. I like that, guys. I think we're
gonna jump into a little easy as one, two three four.
On the other side of this, it is time to
see what the crew can come up with together ten
possible points. A little college basketball is yeah, all right,

(01:07:47):
excited about that. Don't go anywhere. We're gonna see what
the crew knows. It's gonna be easy as one, two,
three four. Next year on Fox Sports Radio, NFL preseason
action continues. Chargers in Saints up right now, seventeen to ten,
early in the fourth quarter. They're at SOFI Stadium. We
are at Fox Sports Radio. He is the All Pro

(01:08:08):
safety carry roads I am Monci bolangos, and it's time
for a little easy as one two three four. If
you've never listened to this part of the show, it's
fun little trivia game that we put together. Carrie has
some lifelines, Mary, Shay and Brianna are all here to

(01:08:30):
help him get as many points as he can. It's
a total of ten points that he can get.

Speaker 3 (01:08:36):
And I have made this I think easy that I'm
gonna make.

Speaker 1 (01:08:40):
The over under you know what, I'm gonna make the
over and under. I'm gonna make it eight and a half.
So in order for you to win, you gotta get
nine waitts. I believe in you, guys. I think you
can do this together. And they don't even have to
give me the whole answer, just a piece of the answer.
All right, everybody, let's get going easy as one, two

(01:09:01):
three four. Carrie name one of two players in NBA's
two K twenty six video game with the three point
rating of over ninety one of two players, I mean
Steph Curry.

Speaker 11 (01:09:15):
I'll take I'll say that one.

Speaker 1 (01:09:17):
Okay, final answer, Yeah, show me Steph Curry.

Speaker 3 (01:09:22):
That's right, Steph Curry.

Speaker 1 (01:09:24):
And he guesses on there's only two of them that
have a higher rate of ninety for three point shooting.
Would you take a guess for the other one? Yeah,
the other one who might be on two k.

Speaker 11 (01:09:37):
Yeah, SGA or something something random? No way, you don't
think so it's not SG three point three one.

Speaker 1 (01:09:49):
It doesn't matter. I was surprised at who this was.

Speaker 11 (01:09:53):
I'm trying to think what Kevin Hurt. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:09:56):
I don't want to.

Speaker 9 (01:09:57):
I want to say Derek White, but that I.

Speaker 1 (01:09:58):
Don't know that much.

Speaker 11 (01:10:00):
That's a good guess.

Speaker 2 (01:10:01):
Probably it's not.

Speaker 1 (01:10:03):
It is ninety one and Steph Curry ninety nine. Steph
Curry ninety nine cheating at ninety one.

Speaker 3 (01:10:13):
That is cheating, but it's accurate.

Speaker 1 (01:10:16):
Wow, but it's accurate.

Speaker 2 (01:10:17):
That's funny.

Speaker 1 (01:10:18):
All right, Moving on here, going into today's games. So
not with the scores of today. So going into today's games,
name two of the three teams with the best record
in baseball starting today Sunday, two of the three teams
with the best record.

Speaker 2 (01:10:36):
All right, so Brewers Milwaukee, Okay, going until today?

Speaker 1 (01:10:44):
Yeah, not today?

Speaker 4 (01:10:45):
I know you killed me with that. Are the Blue
Days still up there? I know they lost. Oh no,
they're on the Dodgers right now, but they lost yesterday.
I know the Tigers were on the losing streak, but
their records still good. But I'm guessing it will be
n al team. So Brewers, who else?

Speaker 1 (01:11:05):
Say?

Speaker 2 (01:11:06):
We need how many three?

Speaker 1 (01:11:07):
So no, two of the three? You got more?

Speaker 11 (01:11:10):
I'm gonna give you a little here. Yeah, the Dodgers
tied the Blue Jays with the wind I know, but.

Speaker 1 (01:11:18):
It's going into today, so no matter what's happened today. Yeah,
so yesterday, oh there you go, okay, did Yeah, it
was a little bit confusing what you're trying to say.

Speaker 11 (01:11:26):
Yesterday they tied.

Speaker 4 (01:11:28):
They tied the Blue Jays yesterday, the Blue Jays yesterday,
So he can beat either one of them then, so
it's yeah, all right, so let's.

Speaker 2 (01:11:37):
Take one of them. Then, uh, let's just go. Let's
go Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (01:11:40):
Right, all right, there we go, show me theirs. That
is correct. Brewers are the hottest team right now in baseball.
Who would have thunk it? I definitely did it. They
have the best record right now. What's six seventy?

Speaker 2 (01:11:55):
No, they're at seventy, like seventy one and forty eight
or something like that, right, d.

Speaker 1 (01:11:59):

show me the Doyers. That is correct. Yeah, going into today,
the Dodgers on the Blue Jays tied, so.

I really thought so too.

Speaker 2 (01:19:21):
This is this is this is bad. This is an abomination.

Speaker 1 (01:19:26):
Six six, this is a six. It's all right, guys,

It is a good if you just think, yeah on
the if it's on the radio a lot, or it
was on TikTok a lot, then yeah, treasure.

Speaker 1 (01:19:48):
To treasure, Treasure. It's in the top ten, just not
in the top you know, four of five for all.
Next time, I bet you will get well. I can't
not if you're planning for it, you I can't prepare
that way. I can't tell you who it's gonna be,
But I can't tell you that we'll be diving into
the NBA next point. Guards do they exist? I don't know.
We'll see what's up everybody. Thank you for hanging out

(01:20:12):
and tuning in here at Fox Sports Radio. I hope
you're enjoying your Sunday with the little NFL preseason action.
As you heard Briannamuro at the news desk say that
the Chargers are up on the Saints right now, twenty
to ten. This is at SOFI Stadium, coming down to
the final three and a half minutes. This will wrap
up Week one of the preseason, inching closer to the

(01:20:32):
actual start of the NFL season, which is very exciting.
I can't wait, cause wait, can't wait, can wait, because
once it starts, it feels like it goes by fast.
It does like next thing, I know, we're gonna be
talking about Week thirteen of the NFL and teams that
are on the fringe of being eliminated from playoff contention already.

(01:20:56):
So enjoy it because it's getting close to the real
story of it. But even though we're all very excited
about the NFL season, doesn't mean there aren't other sports
going on, Carrie, other topics to discuss. Yep, we're gonna
dive into a little NBA right now. As teams the
trade deadline happened some teams made moves, some teams didn't. Obviously,

(01:21:18):
Nico Harrison is still the worst. We know all that.
We know all that, but things might not be as
great in Atlanta right now.

Speaker 3 (01:21:26):
For the Hawks.

Speaker 1 (01:21:28):
There are reports that Trey Young is a little bit upset,
waiting on a contract extension, waiting on the call from
the Atlanta Hawks. You know, Trey was taken over Luka
Doncic in that twenty eighteen draft.

Speaker 3 (01:21:47):
We know what happened with Luca and where he's at.

Speaker 1 (01:21:50):
Shai gil Just Alexandra, I believe, was also in that
same draft class, and we know what's going on there.
Jaron Jackson junior, he signed a five year deal in
his draft class twenty eighteen, and so he's been kind
of waiting and there are reports that he hasn't even
been contacted by the Atlanta Hawks. He upped his assists

(01:22:12):
this past year. I'm a big Tray Young fan, and
it has probably to do with the fact that I'm
so short, and so when I see a short guy
like that deliver, because I think he is so good
and delivers for the Atlanta Hawks year after year. You'll
never forget when he shushes, you know, the crowd every
time he gets hot, whether he's at Madison Square Garden

(01:22:33):
or not, he'll shush the crowd. I'm a big fan,
But at the same time, I don't know if he
is necessarily the difference maker like a Luka Doncic, Which
is it fair because you're much shorter, You're a different player,
So I don't think it's the same the fair to compare.
But I'm just saying the difference maker that one player

(01:22:53):
can be, maybe Trey Young is not that the Hawks
are obviously making moves. They acquired Chris tops for they
have a Zachary Heck, I couldn't. Yeah, they got you know,
they're they're trying to compete in the East that we've
mentioned is a little bit open in comparison to the West,

(01:23:17):
and I am wondering our teams just not valuing point
guards the way we used to. Then one of our friends,
our friends, one of our favorites, Rick Patino, earlier this week,
that's right, did say that he thinks the point guard
position is dead, that that's there is no John Stockton.

(01:23:39):
In fact, he said that he thinks Chris Paul is
probably the last one of the true point guards. They
somebody asked for Patino in this what about Jalen Brunson, right,
And he said, he's a combo scoring guard. I don't
think he's looking to assist. That's what it is, right,
looking to assist.

Speaker 3 (01:23:58):
That's what you think of with the point guard.

Speaker 1 (01:24:00):
Yeah, pass first, set up the play, set up the field.

Speaker 3 (01:24:04):
The vision is what matters.

Speaker 1 (01:24:06):
We know that obviously Lebron James's great vision and he
does great assists. But Magic Johnson down to Caitlin Clark,
We've talked about her on the WNBA, right, But Trey
Young did up his assist this past year. He tried to,
you know, be that point guard eleven point six career high.

Speaker 3 (01:24:22):
But it seems like that that's not enough. And I'm wondering.

Speaker 14 (01:24:29):
Are the Hawks disrespecting Trey Young or is this more
the bigger picture that point guards are not valued the
way they used to be because now you don't necessarily
need a point guard.

Speaker 4 (01:24:40):
Yeah, it's a lot to this question. There's a lot
today and to say, is the PG becoming extinct?

Speaker 2 (01:24:47):
The pure point guard?

Speaker 1 (01:24:48):
Yes, the pure one.

Speaker 4 (01:24:50):
And the reason I say that because, and I'm sure
Rick Patino as well, because right now everybody on the
court has.

Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
To be able to score.

Speaker 4 (01:24:58):
The way the game is set up, it's so wid open,
teams are keying in on certain looks.

Speaker 2 (01:25:02):
It's a lot of pick and roll basketball.

Speaker 4 (01:25:04):
And so if you're a pick and roll point guard
and you're coming off like the old school stocked in
pick and roll offense, everything's a little bit more congested
in the paint. So he had to be able to
whip the ball of calls to different angles to make
plays and has to be like really precise what it's passing.

Speaker 2 (01:25:19):
Passing.

Speaker 4 (01:25:20):
It's a different game now they're doing that. They will trap,
they'll sometimes they'll drop, and when they're playing that drop defense,
if you're the pure point guard coming off the pick
and roll, there isn't there isn't a lot of angles
to make the pass.

Speaker 2 (01:25:32):
So you have to be able to score. And I
think the thing with Trey Young and his in his
case in particular.

Speaker 4 (01:25:39):
Trey Young needs to be better and he needs to
be better and more efficient because he has the ball
so much. His like his mid range game is a
little bit like if the floater's going, it's nice, but
if it's not, his percentage drops a lot, right, And
so he's small, he doesn't do anything else on the
defensive end, so he's out of factor there. So if

(01:26:01):
he's not efficient with the ball in his hands being
able to make the right play all the time, he's
a negative on the court. Now, he has splash moments
where you look at Trey and he'll go off and
have forty points and eleven assisting, like.

Speaker 1 (01:26:13):
It's on a show. It's crazy and it's great.

Speaker 4 (01:26:15):
But he doesn't do that day in and day out,
and so I can see why they're holding off on
giving the big contract here. This question is hard because
the pure point guard.

Speaker 2 (01:26:25):
If you notice, teams still have that player on their
team because they need a point guard like that to
possibly run the second unit, right a mcconno or somebody
like that. They are there.

Speaker 4 (01:26:38):
But as far as you being that guy for a
team and being the star player, I think that I
think that player has become extinct.

Speaker 1 (01:26:46):
It's crazy to think that though, because for the longest time,
I don't think you could. That was like your quarterback.
You couldn't operate without a point guard because if a
point guard guard hurt, you were.

Speaker 3 (01:26:55):
Like, who's going to run the show?

Speaker 1 (01:26:57):
Who's going to dish the ball? And set up the game,
set up the play, and it does seem like we're
moving further away from.

Speaker 3 (01:27:04):
One guy being able to do that.

Speaker 1 (01:27:06):
Now it's like, well, I got three guys that can
set up the play, you know, even James James Harden. Yeah,
on the Clippers, he's our point guard. But you're right,
you could give the ball to Kawhi Leonard. He can
definitely take it up, no problem, Chris, no problem, can
take it up. But James Harden is also a shooter,
Like I wouldn't think of him as a point guard

(01:27:26):
even though he's our point guard because a score, because
he's scored it is a combo guard, just like Rick
Patino has said. The Hawks also have been in the
play in tournament for the last every year. The last
time that they actually weren't in it was in twenty
twenty twenty twenty twenty twenty one season they actually clinched

(01:27:46):
a spot that was outside of the play in. So
it all started really high, and it seems like now
you just get in the play in and then it's
not enough and you get eliminated, like you you get there,
kind of like the bulls a little bit that we've
talked about.

Speaker 3 (01:28:02):
But the but the Bulls have made so many moves.

Speaker 1 (01:28:05):
They've tried in and out with the Hawks, it's like
it's been Trey Young. Trey Young has been and then
Snyder Quinn Snyder is that the coach trainer. Quinn said,
like they have been the staples there to keep momentum
going with the Hawks. And I have a hard time
because I'm big on loyalty. So it's like I get
the frustration that Trey Young has because he's like, I

(01:28:26):
am the one that has kept us a flow. He's
put us, He's put them back on the map, and
that sometimes carried them on the shoulders. But then you
get down to the playoffs and that's not enough.

Speaker 2 (01:28:37):
He had an Eastern Conference Finals run, didn't he did? Hawks?

Speaker 1 (01:28:40):
He did, but then it just kind of fell off.
You forget about that you just because it was a
one off. So it's like, was that you or was
that just a fluke that year that you made it
that far because you can't seem.

Speaker 3 (01:28:49):
To get out of the plane anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:28:51):
And I side with with the Hawks on there, like
let's wait and see, but I also understand his perspective
of like you're making all these others moves and all
these other guys are getting extended and you don't even
want to talk to me, You don't even want to
approach the subject, because that makes it seem that tells
me that they're not on the same page. The Hawks
are like, we don't want to talk to you because

(01:29:11):
you're not gonna like what we have to say.

Speaker 2 (01:29:12):
Yeah' on the same page.

Speaker 4 (01:29:13):
I think for Trey Young, the best thing for him
to do is just like I said, focus on being
the best version of himself right now.

Speaker 1 (01:29:20):
I think this team you can do some damage I.

Speaker 2 (01:29:23):
Actually do in the East. We know the East is
wide open.

Speaker 4 (01:29:25):
I'm not saying they're gonna win it or anything, but
I think they can really make the playoffs and have
a have a chance for trade to really prove that
he's worth what he's asking for. And I think that's
that's what I'm looking for right now. I mean, I
know he feels a certain way, feels slighted and deserveedly so,
but again, the team needs to know that he can
get this thing done being the leader. And he's a
really short like he's a really small guard.

Speaker 1 (01:29:47):
He is a very he's small. You know, I'm curious
to see I'm gonna check right now what he's listed
at right, because it.

Speaker 2 (01:29:53):
Probably six foot right, that's what he's probably listed.

Speaker 1 (01:29:55):
Up, and that means he's not exactly that's that's what
he is listed at six to one, so he's probably
like five pushing maybe six feet.

Speaker 3 (01:30:07):
He is small, But you're right, I think the he's
he's in a good spot.

Speaker 1 (01:30:12):
In the sense of like prove them this year the Hawks,
like you said, we didn't even mention Dyson Daniels with
his breakout year.

Speaker 3 (01:30:19):
He was a first team first.

Speaker 1 (01:30:22):
Team but like a big finalist for the Defensive Player
of the Year, he made a big jump. The Hawks
are trying to put together some thing. They acquired Luke Kennard,
a nice shooter that can add to spread the ball around.
So as frustrated as he is, he can't don't derail
your process right now. Don't let it derail your concentration.

(01:30:44):
Don't let a derail your ultimate goal. Because if you
have a successful year and the Hawks get out of
the play in and get further in, you will be
the anchor to that paid and you will get paid.

Speaker 3 (01:30:57):
So it's it's just like.

Speaker 1 (01:30:59):
There's truth behind what Rick Patino said. Though Kerry that
it is dying, that that point guard position is dying.
And you see it with Cooper Flag, Cooper Flag, it's
like he's a point guard, he's a forward, he's this,
he's that.

Speaker 3 (01:31:12):
That's what is becoming more attractive.

Speaker 4 (01:31:14):
But what they say in the NBA now, it's about
positionless basketball.

Speaker 2 (01:31:18):
They've said it so much that they've told us.

Speaker 4 (01:31:21):
I hate that, I know, And that's where they're going, right,
Who's who's a real true power for now?

Speaker 2 (01:31:25):
In these days? You're talking about point guards? Like, think
about that?

Speaker 3 (01:31:28):
Just this is a real true like Zach Randolph.

Speaker 2 (01:31:32):
Yeah, like no, when we were walking the Dirks versus
kgs versus Tim Duncans.

Speaker 1 (01:31:35):
Like this, Za off center was part for it, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
no that You're right. It's positionless basketball. And I hate that,
to be honest with you, because I don't know if
I could could have succeeded in that type of basketball.
When I played, it was like I was a shooting guard.
That was my job.

Speaker 3 (01:31:52):
Go shoot the ball.

Speaker 2 (01:31:52):
You can shoot it.

Speaker 1 (01:31:53):
Stand over there and shoot the ball.

Speaker 2 (01:31:55):
They put they put baby in the corner.

Speaker 1 (01:31:57):
They put and baby was successful in the corner. Here's
the thing. Baby was successful in the corner. Now with
positionless basketball, it is it is a different approach to
the whole game. It is a different approach to the
whole game. And I just as a fan of Trey Young,
I hope someone is in his corner with him, telling him,
don't let this derail your process, your thoughts going into

(01:32:22):
this new season, because the Hawks are making moves and
it may seem like they're disrespecting you, but they're also
putting pieces around you, Yes, to get you to the
next spot. Yes, because you haven't been enough. Sometimes you
just got to come to the realization you haven't been enough.
You've been great, and you've cut them afloat, but you

(01:32:42):
just haven't been enough.

Speaker 3 (01:32:44):
And they've given you a couple of years.

Speaker 1 (01:32:45):
Since the last couple of years, you've just made plans.
You haven't secured a spot like you did about five
years ago.

Speaker 4 (01:32:50):
They're one of the most inconsistent teams I've seen since
he's been there.

Speaker 2 (01:32:55):
Yeah, and he's a part of that.

Speaker 1 (01:32:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:32:57):
If he shoots the ball better, if he takes the
thing a little bit more serious, I think he has
potential for that team to do it, do what it
needs to be, do what they need for him to
get it done.

Speaker 1 (01:33:07):
But you know, some I don't disagree with you. I
just sometimes would watch them and I was like, I
feel like he needs to he feels that he needs
to take over because there was nobody else. Now, obviously
they're making moves, they're trying to put people around him,
but there are times where I felt like he took
over because he thought he had to, and then he
didn't make the shot and it goes on him, but

(01:33:28):
it was like who else was going to do it?

Speaker 2 (01:33:29):
Oh yeah, I don't blame him for that at all,
but that you.

Speaker 1 (01:33:32):
Know what I'm saying, Like, that's what you remember though,
that he took too many shots, maybe that he hogged
the ball when he shouldn't have. But it's like, I
think he felt that he had to do that at
those times.

Speaker 4 (01:33:43):
I think he got into the mindset. And I'm saying
is very very much so because I know that the
comparenism were there, right, I think he was competing with
people outside of Atlanta. I think he was competing with
players like Luka.

Speaker 1 (01:33:56):
Dancis in his draft class, like will Swamp the actual
swap right, because it was a hump, That's how that happened, right,
so like.

Speaker 2 (01:34:04):
It's it's that when I see him play, I don't
think it's right.

Speaker 1 (01:34:07):
Atlanta traded up to.

Speaker 2 (01:34:09):
Get him Bold No, no, no, they just swapped picks.

Speaker 3 (01:34:11):
They just swapped picks.

Speaker 2 (01:34:12):
So they drafted each other and swapped the pick and
swapped the pick.

Speaker 4 (01:34:15):
And so like he's always been in a battle with
trying to live up to Luca in the comparison of that, right, and.

Speaker 2 (01:34:20):
So it's not going to happen.

Speaker 1 (01:34:22):
He's not that.

Speaker 4 (01:34:23):
And that's what I'm saying, Like, I think it's more
than just him doing the right thing.

Speaker 1 (01:34:26):
Damn you think it's It's been a thing. It's been
a thing on his shoulder, a chip on his shoulder,
and it hasn't worked out. But the Hawks can be
can be a team to to look out for coming
up this season in the NBA. We'll see, we'll see.
But we still have NFL season to get ready for
and preseason continues, and one of the biggest stories, well,

(01:34:50):
I say he delivered in his preseason day debut. We'll
dive into that. On the other side, don't go anywhere.
He's carry all Pro safety on Moncy. And this is
Fox Sports Radio to the Moon.

Speaker 2 (01:35:10):
Trying to do.

Speaker 1 (01:35:11):
That's right. What's up everybody having a little dance party
with a little Bruno Mars. Here at Fox Sports Radio,
I asked the crew a question about Bruno Mars and
easy as one, two, three, four, Okay, that's it. Had
away for that one. That's all I had a way for.

(01:35:31):
We can move on. I'm sorry, b Carrie and I
and Mary we're talking about this during the break. I
think Bruno Mars is so talented to the point where
I don't think he's trying, like I think he just
opens his mouth and this comes out the way you do.

Speaker 4 (01:35:49):
He's the number one pop star and talent singing dance
in the total package.

Speaker 2 (01:35:55):
I think he's number one.

Speaker 1 (01:35:57):
Number one, and it's like there's a lot of great
out there right the weekend. People love the weekend, and
this is no disrespect to the weekend. I just think
the weekend is you know, he has tea after a
concert to like make sure his throat isn't overused, and
he's probably making sure. I feel like Bruno Mars just
wakes up and is like I'm ready to sing.

Speaker 13 (01:36:15):
The thing is and you have a great musician and
then a great performer can do.

Speaker 1 (01:36:21):
Both good point good. But you know what, like you
are on a grande. I think that girl just opens
her mouth and it comes out like she's not She
doesn't have to sit there be like let me warm
up my vocals. She could just do it. And the
same with Bruno Mars.

Speaker 3 (01:36:34):
I think he just do it.

Speaker 2 (01:36:36):
I mean he's been doing this since he was a kid.

Speaker 4 (01:36:38):
I mean there was footage of him doing Elvis impersonation
concerts when he was a kid, I mean four years old.

Speaker 1 (01:36:43):
Just commanding the stage, just commanding in the stage. Shador
Sanders just commands the stage. I mean, y'all hear.

Speaker 2 (01:36:54):
Seg bomb, segwe bomb.

Speaker 1 (01:36:56):
Big fan of that one, Thank you, thank you. Shad
Door Sanders just commands the damn stage man and everybody
is on their feet for it. Shadoor Sanders obviously has
got haters. Why it has to because of the family, whatever,
Dion on the whole thing. You could get mad that
he has that watch and he walks around. But in reality,

(01:37:20):
Shadoor Sanders does a lot of good. Even earlier this
week when he was asked about Dion his dad coming
to practice and he was like, no, he shouldn't come
to practice.

Speaker 3 (01:37:30):
It would be a distraction that.

Speaker 1 (01:37:33):
Was the right answer. Has handled training camp really well,
being in a situation where there's twenty seven quarterbacks and
they don't know who they're gonna pick. You know, he
has been mature in a at times when you think
he is immature based on what we've seen from a
kid in college. Like it's like a kid in college

(01:37:53):
not gonna lie, Harry. If I was in college and
I had money like that, I would also be like that,
you know what I mean, Like you could still be
a good person and still be respectful and still be
all that while being a kid flaunting his money. It
both can be true. He has a privilege, of course
he does, But I'm just saying if you had the privilege,
a lot of.

Speaker 3 (01:38:12):
Us would be just like that and take advantage of it.

Speaker 1 (01:38:15):
But I feel like everyone's waiting for him to fail
or succeed, kind of like the Angel rees right situation.
They want her to fail, and if she fails, they're
gonna jump on it, But they also want her to succeed,
and if she succeeds, they're gonna jump on it. Everybody
is watching Shador and I was curious to see how
he was gonna perform in his preseason game because he walked.

Speaker 3 (01:38:38):
In with an on turage.

Speaker 1 (01:38:41):
Carrie, I'm gonna walk in like this next time, Okay,
gonna bring in my girls. I'm gonna fly Natalie back
from New York. I'm gonna bring in my girls. He's
gonna be there too, and Marry and we're just gonna
play music. And I'm gonna come in with like Shakida
playing or something, and we're gonna reenact what Shador Sanders
did with his turage. He walked in with his nice

(01:39:03):
big chain necklace with some music and they walked in
getting ready for a pre season game.

Speaker 2 (01:39:10):
Yeah, that's the problem.

Speaker 3 (01:39:12):
That's the right, that's one of the reasons.

Speaker 1 (01:39:14):
That's the problem that people don't like it.

Speaker 4 (01:39:16):
That's the optics of it. Optics matter for you know, players,
especially rookies. Right when you come in and you like
these kids, again, they have money now, so the dynamic
has changed to shift it. You want to come in
as a rookie, improve everything from you know, you got
it from the mud. Is what the young kids say.
Now you want to prove that, you want to show that.

Speaker 2 (01:39:38):
That's what they say.

Speaker 1 (01:39:39):
Now, Okay, Mary, is that true?

Speaker 2 (01:39:40):
We say what you want, You got to get it
out the mud.

Speaker 1 (01:39:45):
Yes, yes, okay, the trenches.

Speaker 2 (01:39:50):
I'm on my lingo, you know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:39:58):
So, like you want that to be you kind of
want that to lead your narrative as a rookie.

Speaker 1 (01:40:05):
Totally.

Speaker 4 (01:40:06):
You don't want to be flashy. You want to be
somebody that's a hard worker. You want to have all
those things. You want to present yourself that way. Now
doesn't mean that's true, but you want that optic to
be out there. And so I think we've kind of
skipped that for him because he's already had in college.
But for him to walk in with an entourage in
the preseason game where you know, all eyes are on you,
all eyes just don't do that, like, refrain from that.

(01:40:28):
I mean, if people take any advice from me, if
he was listening, refraining from that, just put your head
down and work and do your things, which I'm sure
he is doing.

Speaker 1 (01:40:36):
He is doing.

Speaker 4 (01:40:37):
And that's the point, Like I'm not total I'm not like,
I'm not naive to the fact that you can do both.

Speaker 2 (01:40:42):
But just the way it looks, people are looking.

Speaker 1 (01:40:45):
People were looking, they were paying attention. And then he
goes out there and I'm not gonna lie. He looks
pretty good. Yeah, I know, it's a preseason game, guys,
fully aware against the Panthers. Fourteen of twenty three, one
hundred and thirty eight yards to touchdowns, a couple of
really nice passes in tight cu Bridge avoided losing yardage
on a sack, got rid of the ball on time,

(01:41:06):
like he made good decisions, and he looked really good
for the first time seeing him in real action in
the NFL, and I was like, good because of the
way you came in. Had you not done well, you
would have been destroyed on social media because the cockiness

(01:41:27):
that you have. And there's nothing wrong with being cocky
and confident again, but you have to be And sometimes
the advice you're saying, I agree. It's like, don't give
them more, ammo. Just get there, like, work hard, quietly
and then show them. But that's not his style that
he wasn't coming from a family like that either, you
know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:41:46):
So it's like I really can't blame him, but everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:41:49):
Is watching him. After he finished playing, Nike had a
picture of him already. It takes time or something was
the slogan with his hand up showing his watch, his
signature move about his watch. Right, even Nike had that
ready because I'm telling you, if he didn't do well,
Nike wasn't gonna put that. Of course not, but that's
that is the type of attention this guy is bringing

(01:42:11):
and garnering.

Speaker 3 (01:42:12):
And like, there's that shot of you.

Speaker 1 (01:42:15):
I don't know if you saw it. You could see
a little bit of Joe Flacco in the picture, right,
but he's smiling. Deshaun Watson just is there, looks like
I don't even know why I'm here. And then Dylan
Gabriel looks a little bit sad, yes, And that whole
picture says everything encapsulates, encapsulates it all at all. Joe
Flacco looks like a proud dad, right, like, look at
that kid going out there and delivering. Deshaun Watson is like,

(01:42:38):
why am I here? I guess I have to be
here because you're paying me, even though I'm never playing again,
and Dylan Gabriel is like, damn it, I may be
losing the opportunity that I thought I had, like so much.

Speaker 4 (01:42:50):
On the one picture, Deshaun Watson was just there saying
I'm here just so I'm not fine that was his look.

Speaker 1 (01:42:58):
But no, I don't even think he was watching the
playing something else in his head. Exactly.

Speaker 4 (01:43:03):
If I can draw like a bubble outline like a
cartoon around, it'll be like it just would be nothing there,
it'd be blank.

Speaker 1 (01:43:08):
He's thinking about a Simpsons episode and stead like about that.

Speaker 2 (01:43:11):
Or can Cone or something.

Speaker 4 (01:43:13):
But with Shador Sanders Man, I really want the kid
to do well and all this, you know, the notion
that he's being set up a failure, that's just not
the case because you don't these these teams are in
situations where they're in when now, like you don't have
a window to develop players and bring them slowly when

(01:43:34):
you have aspirations of them being the guy we've talked
about Anthony Richison, right like, you don't have that much
time to do that, right And obviously with Shador, he's
a fifth round guy. So in theory, you could take
your time with him, but we're not gonna We're not
gonna afford him that time because the fans, we want
to see something either it's good.

Speaker 2 (01:43:56):
Or bad, right like, we want that payoff.

Speaker 4 (01:43:59):
And so for him to go out and play well
in this first preseason game for him, like I said earlier, like,
these games may not mean anything as a as a whole,
but for individual players, it means a lot. Like you're
getting yourself accustomed to planning these games. Plan on the
biggest level of the NFL. Doesn't matter which players you're

(01:44:20):
playing against. All those players represent the NFL, and so
you're planning on the NFL level getting things done. And
for him to have a debut like that for him
meant the world. And now I just hope he can
carry it over and actually put more time into that
and let that do the talking for.

Speaker 1 (01:44:35):
Him, and stay focused. Don't lose focus, kind of what
we talked about Trey Young. Don't lose focus because you're
upset of the contract situation in Atlanta. Don't lose focus,
should it? Because you delivered in your first experience, your
first time being able to prove to the people us
the messes that like, yeah, you are an NFL quarterback
that definitely dropped in the draft. Not saying you should

(01:44:56):
have been as high as maybe some people, but you
dropped in the draft because of your personality. That's all
it is. But here you are proving that, hey, I
can have a personality and I can still play football,
and that's okay, and that's okay. I'm curious to see
what happens right as we dive deeper into this preseason
and what the Browns are gonna do because I don't

(01:45:17):
see Joe Flacco not being QB one week one, right,
that's not gonna.

Speaker 3 (01:45:23):
Help unless he's injured, which can which what can happen?

Speaker 1 (01:45:28):
It can happen. But he's definitely proving a case for
being a real NFL quarterback right now early on. And
it's he's in a position where it's like it's it's
it depends how you look at it, where it's like
unfair or fair, or he has a privilege. However, but
the eyes are on him because of his dad and

(01:45:49):
all of that, and so his leash is different than
the leash of somebody like Anthony Richardson. Anthony Richardson we
mentioned his leash hasn't really moved a lot, I think
because he keeps getting her and they're still like, but
what if because the talent is there, wish the door Sanders,
he is either going to get a long leash because
he delivers, or that leash would have been cut immediately.

Speaker 2 (01:46:11):
Not the least is going to be short. And the
reason why is because of the distraction distractions. Right, that's
why he dropped in the draft.

Speaker 4 (01:46:18):
Like, you're not going to take a quarterback that's not
going to be a starter as a backup being the
focal point of your team.

Speaker 2 (01:46:25):
M hm.

Speaker 4 (01:46:26):
Like we're talking about the guy that was the guy
that was fourth string on their quarterback roster going into
this game. Obviously had to move up because of injury,
but like we're we're talking about him. I think like
teams have too many distractions already when you have somebody
like that that may not be up for being the
starter of that team and he's on your team and

(01:46:48):
he's getting attention, Like the NFL, I'm telling you, they
don't like that.

Speaker 1 (01:46:51):
They don't like that at all. With his performance last night,
you don't think that leash was extended a little bit?

Speaker 2 (01:46:56):
Oh no, I think for sure.

Speaker 1 (01:47:00):
Yeah. From that, Yeah, like it started short and it
could have been real a lot tighter. But now I
think they're like, all right, we're gonna let it. You
let it out a little bit. That's kind of That's
kind of how I thought of it.

Speaker 3 (01:47:12):
Yeah, right, I'm into it.

off is how we wrap up the show. A little

(01:50:10):
fun here. I'm just gonna give Carrie some topics and
he's gonna basically tell me whether he's on board or
not wit topic. Thank you Mary Mac for that. All right, Carrie,
let's start with the fun one here, hon or Off
pocket food, And yes I could say food in your pocket,

(01:50:32):
but there's a reason I'm calling it pocket food, Honor Off,
pocket food, A little snack in your pocket? Off?

Speaker 2 (01:50:43):
Who's eating stuff about your pockets? Is it like is
it old stuff?

Speaker 4 (01:50:46):
If it's is this stuff you just had like a
little bite of and you put in your pocket and
say that's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (01:50:52):
What are you doing with.

Speaker 1 (01:50:52):
Saving food in your pocket for are you're hunger?

Speaker 4 (01:50:55):
And can you sit it on the counter or your
bag or like, why I don't want to stand?

Speaker 2 (01:51:00):
The pocket part is tell me why I was going?

Speaker 1 (01:51:01):
All right? So, but no food in your pocket? No
food in your pocket here, you don't carry that around. Okay.
So this past week Brewers manager hot team in baseball,
Pat Murphy was doing an interview and he literally pulled
out a pancake out of his pocket and started eating it,
shared it with the sideline reporter that he was talking to,
And now the Brewers are selling Murphy pocket pancakes during

(01:51:27):
Sundays for the rest of the season.

Speaker 2 (01:51:30):
Man, stop eat your food like an.

Speaker 4 (01:51:34):
Adult sitting sitting down somewhere.

Speaker 2 (01:51:37):
You can stand in the corner if you want. But
no pancakes out your pocket.

Speaker 1 (01:51:41):
And he said that. He says, it's not just pancakes,
a bagel, a pizza. He just says he likes to
food in his pocket.

Speaker 2 (01:51:48):
And that's strange. That's all I'm gonna say. That's strange.

Speaker 1 (01:51:52):
How does he esus, sir? I mean, older gentlemen, that's
for a toddler. What you been talking to limit? Hold
on a second. Have you ever been hungry and he's
sixty six years old.

Speaker 3 (01:52:07):
Have you ever been hungry and.

Speaker 1 (01:52:08):
You don't have food?

Speaker 3 (01:52:09):
This man is not wanting to be in that position.

Speaker 1 (01:52:12):
I've been there.

Speaker 2 (01:52:12):
So he buttered and put and put syrup on a pancake.

Speaker 1 (01:52:15):
It it looked dry.

Speaker 13 (01:52:16):
It just looked like a drive Napoleon Gynam I did that.

Speaker 11 (01:52:20):
We're not doing that. It's worse.

Speaker 1 (01:52:22):
You guys are no fun, okay, whatever, All right, all right?
On or off? Carrie, Backstreet Boys are the better boy
band than in Sync? Ooh ooh, do not give me
no I know I was there when this happened.

Speaker 2 (01:52:38):
I'm gonna have to say I'm off that as well.

Speaker 3 (01:52:40):
You were off that you think in Sync is the
better boy band.

Speaker 4 (01:52:43):
And Sync when they came on the scene, it was
so much more cool. Like I'm not saying that they
are a better singing group than Backtreet Boys or whatever,
but that era were in Sync and Britney Spears and
all that live.

Speaker 2 (01:52:57):
Justin Timberlake and no no, no, just no no in
Sync and then Brittany's all that stuff is kind of
packaged around the same time that movement was strong. I'm
gonna have to say in Sync.

Speaker 1 (01:53:06):
Now that's crazy. Let me tell you, in Sync is
not the better boy band. That's why they're no longer
around and they can't be doing tours because they're not
a boy band anymore. Justin Timberlake was the driving force
and that and I was an in Sync fan. But
backtra boys are still a thing for a reason. But
apparently Nick Carter was at Pebble Beach this past week
and they were doing like a video talking about yeah

(01:53:28):
the Sphere concert that you don't want to go with
me too? And he challenged in Sync on the golf course.
Oh he wouldn't that be vegan? And Justin Timberlake is
supposedly a very good golfer, like out of all of them,
he's the best and the best by far.

Speaker 2 (01:53:45):
Oh that'll be a big, a big turnout that you.

Speaker 1 (01:53:49):
Go to that. But you don't want to go with
me to Vegas, to.

Speaker 2 (01:53:51):
This fear not to Vegas?

Speaker 1 (01:53:52):
No, all right, all right, but we'll go watch them
golf if that's the thing. If that's the thing, Carrie
on off, Tom Brady, the Goat deserved a better statue.

Speaker 2 (01:54:06):
I'm on board with that.

Speaker 14 (01:54:07):
Yes, yes, did you see the statue?

Speaker 4 (01:54:10):
It was just like a melted bronze penny. Yeah, I saw, Yeah,
I saw the statue. It was like it wasn't very
well shaped out. It wasn't even like a jersey like
you can really tell. It was almost like just some
old thing that they put together.

Speaker 1 (01:54:24):
Yeah, you look, you're like, is that Tom Brady supposed
to be the goat?

Speaker 2 (01:54:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:54:29):
Give me, give me something more.

Speaker 1 (01:54:30):
And I know he has no flashy moves or like
flashy things that he does.

Speaker 3 (01:54:34):
But my biggest take was his head was too small.

Speaker 1 (01:54:37):
It looked like this big, big statue and then the
head was tiny, and I referenced Beetlejuice Beatle Juice with
the guy with the shrunken head. It's like, that's what
this looks like. We couldn't do something better for the goat,
for Tom himself.

Speaker 3 (01:54:53):
And there's other worse ones.

Speaker 1 (01:54:55):
Dwayne Wady, Dwayne Wades terrible, terrible. Wayne Wade's is terrible
because it doesn't look like him. Yeah, this one doesn't
look like Tom, but it's just kind of like it's
supposed to be epic and then it isn't epic.

Speaker 4 (01:55:11):
It's hard, obviously, it has to be hard because you
see all these statues and they don't look good at all.

Speaker 1 (01:55:17):
They who are making these time and then how many
hours and days and weeks and I need better statue.
Dirks was great, Dirk's was great.

Speaker 4 (01:55:26):
Dirk's was but he had a signature move though, like
you said, correct, there's some signature thing.

Speaker 1 (01:55:29):
Right because you look at the one like outside of crypto,
like shock dunking like that. That one's awesome exactly because
he has. But I just felt like it could have
been more epic than it was. And instead we've got
a guy with a shrunken head as a statue for
the go, standing straight up and I don't like it.

Speaker 2 (01:55:48):
Stop doing bad statues, Like I don't like this guy
standing with my shoulder right now. He ain't about to
come in in a minute.

Speaker 1 (01:55:54):
But standing right here right now, acting like we are
interrupting his show. That has and started e from Salam
coming in next with Mark Willard Carrie. This was fun always.
I can't wait for it to actually be Week one
of the NFL. But we've got to get through a

(01:56:14):
few more weeks of preseason where we maybe can dive
more into the storylines. Don't go anywhere. There's more still
