Let's give this you're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
We are headed out to San Francisco this weekend. All
of us Israel. Good eras at studio with me, Taylor
in the VIP room, Mikeye on Zoom eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox's the telephone number. Eric Mangini, former
Jets head coach. If you remember about a week ago,
I said when I was driving in Huh what is
(00:45):
Eric Mangini up to? We're gonna find out today. Together
we are headed out to the super Bowl. I'm excited
to experience the super Bowl and Radio Row with this crew.
I am shocked to hear that is real. Goody Aires
has never been to radio You've been to a super Bowl?
You've never been to radio Row.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Yeah, and there's been so many in my lifetime, even
as a professional, so many super Bowls in Miami, and
I just avoid them. I avoid radio row. I avoid
the Super Bowls. I had to go to one as
a columnist. I rode off of the.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Who was it?
Speaker 4 (01:23):
The Saints quarterback Drew Brees? Remember which super Bow was?
Actually out of the Drew Brees Super Bowl? And I
think with the who did the halftime actress?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
That one?
Speaker 4 (01:32):
I can remember it because it was terrible and I
didn't care to see it. But I've never been and
I'm excited about it. I'm a little nervous about the
Super Bowl in general. I feel like it's going to
be awful, and if it's my first radio row, they'll
probably some people blaming me for it. Probably just me, right,
but I have a feeling that these quarterbacks aren't going
to play very well, and that I already see one
of them, Drake Mays, on the injury report, and I'm
(01:53):
just like.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Oh, come on, yes, we'll get to that in a second. Mikey,
I have never seen you nod your head so quickly
in agreement. That is he's going to be the guy
that ruins radio row with super Bowl week. For anyone,
I'll blame him.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
You should stay home.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
I don't think anyone's more excited than Taylor, I really do, Taylor,
are you excited for this? My guess is like this
is Taylor's dream. Taylor wants to be in this industry.
He works hard. He's a great kid. He's thirty one
years old and I keep calling him a kid. But
he's a great kid, and he wants this, and he
wants it in the worst way. And really what he
(02:32):
wants to do is just meet people, right He wants
to meet people, exchange business cards, you know, because this
is a time of year where the media gets together
and they all trot out their resumes and tell everyone
what it is they're doing, and they want to compare
if their job is better than everyone else's. But Taylor,
I imagine no one is more no one is more
excited in our crew for Radio Row than you.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Is that fair?
Speaker 5 (02:56):
That is fair.
Speaker 6 (02:58):
I'm not looking at it as we're going to Radio Row.
I'm looking at it as I'm getting a front row
seat to a live show of mad Dog Chris mad Dog.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
You don't even want to watch? D Gods he's on
at the same time as us.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
We're gonna have to figure that one out.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
So can I tell you what my lasting imagery, at
least mentally.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Of Radio Row is.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
It is so down in Miami. Back in the day,
there used to be I think three thriving sports radio
stations in the AM and on one of them there
was a gentleman by the name of Kevin Rogers k.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
As the kids call him. And there was this sound.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
I forget did you guys play this first? Or was
this the radio station that he worked for?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Just running him live? And then somebody clipped it.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
It is the saddest sound I've ever heard professionally from
a colleague, and it made me think that I don't
have the coolest job in the world.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Made me think I have one of the worst jobs
of the world.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Kevin Rodgers is a person that I met in Jacksonville
at the Super Bowl. We had just started locally seven
ninety the ticket down here in Miami.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
I started that station. I was the GM I co
hosted the afternoon show with Dan. It was a terrible plan.
So was a Jacksonville super Bowl. By the way, Yeah,
that was a terrible plan.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
But Kevin Rodgers, and this is what radio Row in
Super Bowl week is all about. He flagged me down
and he was relentless, okay, because he wanted to move
from where he was in Kansas City down to South
Florida and South Beach in Miami. He was a young
man at the time, a very polished broadcaster, a great broadcaster,
and I ended up hiring Kevin Rodgers to do updates
(04:44):
in the afternoons for my show with Dan. Yes, we
then went out I had to add an extra adjective there.
We then went out to a super Bowl. I'm trying
to think where it was. I don't think it was
down here in Miami.
Speaker 7 (05:00):
Is he?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
But we do have next super Bowl because I can
figure out which one that it probably was.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
But we do have the sound that you're talking about,
because this is what Radio Row and super Bowl Week
is all about. Let's first go to the sound, guys,
where was it, tailor just come to them, I can
say it, Bud.
Speaker 5 (05:18):
Yes, all right.
Speaker 6 (05:19):
The way to set this up his show was on
in the evenings. Yeah, so by the time he's going
on from Radio Row, Yes, it's an empty radio row.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yes, So it's an empty radio row because Radio Row
is really a six eight to seven p deal. And
when the afternoon shows are over, when the afternoon shows
are over. Okay, everyone goes and parties their ass off.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Okay, that's what.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
And then they come back the next day and they're hungover,
and you're Sander, Okay, I'm looking forward to And so
here is Kevin Rodgers, the rare guy to host an
evening show on Radio Row. After everyone is cleared out,
here is k Roger trying to get the attention of
Lincoln Kennedy.
Speaker 8 (06:01):
Lincoln Kennedy, what's uping man? Yeah, I'm working.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Where do you go?
Speaker 8 (06:06):
You want to bet chet party night? You're on FHP Knight.
All right, I'll see you later.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
It's so, yes, this is one of the two. The
next one is the one that's most memorable to me.
But it just the Lincoln Kennedy is there. Yes, he's
clearly Kay Rodger the only person there doing a show. Yes,
And Lincoln Kennedy still denies him because he says, you
shouldn't be here this lay.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yes, listen closely, audience, because you can hear faintly Lincoln
Kennedy telling Kevin Rogers everyone has left the building.
Speaker 8 (06:40):
Go again, Lincoln Kennedy, what's uping man?
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Yeah, I'm working. Where do you go?
Speaker 8 (06:46):
You want to get bet chet party night. You're on
FHM Knight. All right, I'll see you later.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
I'm working here. Yes.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So if that's not sad enough, here is Kevin Rogers
still at Radio Row, not the Fahm party. This is
the next day. He hasn't left Radio Row. He never
went to the Fahm party. He just stayed at his
booth on Radio Row. And here is him with a
bloody tongue.
Speaker 8 (07:13):
What else we got? Oh my god, Ray Lewis is here?
Can we get Ray Lewis in the show before my
tongue falls off? Ray freaking Lewis in the house?
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Wow?
Speaker 8 (07:26):
Hey, Ray got a couple of minutes. Ray, Let's see
whatever Ray Lewis walks in and my tongue is bleeding. Wow?
Speaker 4 (07:35):
That that right there, Stu, guys, which was almost twenty
years ago, I want to say maybe it was twenty
years ago. Is my entire visual interpretation, mental interpretation of
what Radio.
Speaker 9 (07:48):
Row is like.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
And I'm thankful we do with three to five Eastern,
which is what going to be noon.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
To two over there, if you say so, I was
on my toes and I'm not going to exp the
k Rots thing, but man, I'm just gonna have like
this sickening empty feeling. If I ever see somebody experiencing that,
or if I see you or anybody else yell a
name and then is not heard, I'll do it all week.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
I will. Yes, Kevin Rodgers quit after that that show.
Speaker 6 (08:19):
His tongue was so bad. He said that was like
the first ten minutes. Yes, that show opening, and then
I believe he said. He called Allison after. I was like,
I can't keep hosting the shows he's teaching.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Now. Did he explain how his tongue got cut up?
Was he just talking to me? He bit his tongue,
that's all. He just bit his tongue. It was bleeding
everywhere he was. He was alone.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
He was sad because he decided it was a good
idea to host an evening show on Radio Row when
everyone else was at the FHM party.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
I remember, ahm, it's like a spinoff of Maxim Right,
was nothing I was interested in. But yes, I want
to just recruit k Rog to be my afternoon inch
of you recruiter. Like, he seems very aggressive and shameless
in what he's doing, so I'm like, let's get him on.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
But when people are actually around.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Right, But unfortunately he's teaching now. It made him leave
the industry radio rope. It did one more time, A
said Kevin Rodgers at night, trying to get Ray Lewis
on because he has no guest booker, because his guest
booker and producer all of them are at the FHM party.
Speaker 8 (09:26):
What else we got? Oh my god, Ray Lewis is here.
Can we get Ray Lewis in the show before my
tongue falls off? Ray freaking Lewis in the house. Wow, Hey, Ray,
got a couple of minutes. Ray, Let's see whatever Ray
Lewis walks in and my tongue is bleeding. Wow.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
I'm just imagining being in South Florida at the time,
tuning into whichever radio station he was working for at.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
The time, and being like, this is not entertaining.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
Why am I listening to this man who's tongue is
clearly injured, just yelling at people.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
I don't know if they're there or not. He could
be making it up. It's the most entertaining thing I've
ever heard.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I mean, it really is, Yes, because I know Radio Row,
and I know super Bowl Week, and I know stuff
like that happens on Radio Row during Super Bowl Week.
Where all of a sudden you're sitting down, you know,
with with Michael Irvin, and I think Hockey's this example earlier, Taylor,
and Mendoza walks by and you have to politely tell
Michael Irvin to get up because there's a bigger guest
(10:28):
waiting at your table, and You're like, hey, playmaker, get
out of here.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
And I'll just yell hey Mendoza when I see him. Yes,
That's what I'll do.
Speaker 6 (10:35):
Yes, Taylor is he krog could have gotten ray Lewis on,
and nothing would have been as good as that clipped
that if we got.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Instead, ray Lewis would say nothing interesting. If indeed Krodge.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Got him on, I'm not a fan of cringe humor,
and so I would have I would have somehow taken
my radio out of my car and thrown it out
the window if I was listening to that live because
I'm so gringuy.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
So anyway, I'm excited to take you guess it's gonna
be amazing. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. We're
gonna take a lot of calls today because I'm tired.
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. We have we
have some episodes out already of Steve Gotson Company and
of God Bless Football Steve Gotson Company with Salakata, God
(11:22):
Bless Football. Mike Ollock Junior joins us there and hopefully
we'll see our friend next week in San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Although he's telling us that he's gonna stay in LA
because he knows how sad it is, so see what happens. Yes,
I wouldn't mind staying in La. Are you into this game?
Speaker 8 (11:36):
Man?
Speaker 10 (11:37):
Like?
Speaker 2 (11:37):
It's not having a hard time getting fired up for
this game?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
I shouldn't be, but I feel like the country as
a whole is having a hard time kind of getting
fired up for this game.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
I feel like there will be people that the country
can sort of grab onto, grasp onto. I think JSN
is one of them. I think if they didn't really
recognize from the conference championship game, just how much of
a fixed you He's going to be in the NFL
for a long time. I think the Super Bowl's probably
going to be another time for him to shine. I
(12:08):
have a feeling the quarterbacks aren't going to play great,
whether it be Drake may facing a quality defense.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
For first time in a minute.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
I mean, the Texans were great, but didn't really have
to do much against them, right, Or if it's Sam
Donald after essentially a cakewalk against a bad Rams defense,
if he's all of a sudden shaken up by this
Pats defense.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
But none of that makes me think, oh, this is
going to be.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Crazy entertaining football, And none of it, none of it
makes me think the storyline is that compelling. Sam Donald's
a nice story, but we've heard crazier stories of quarterbacks
winning super Bowls. He's already sort of accomplished his comeback, right,
He's a legitimate top half, you know, top ten quarterback
in the league, which nobody thought would happen. He's gotten
(12:54):
to a super Bowl if he wins a bonus to
be honest.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Yes, but Sam Donald was the guy who couldn't play
well in big games until he played well in a
big game. If he plays terribly in this game, we're
gonna climb right back on him and say he can't
do it in a big spot, because that's what the
sports media does.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
We're lazy, yes, but is that fun?
Speaker 4 (13:11):
It's like, Oh, I can't wait till Darnol loses so
we can go back to saying what we were saying before,
Like I don't really know what else there. I mean,
if you are a Drake May stan, if you believe
he is the MVP, if you think he is going
to be the best quarterback in the league for the
next decade, then you're sitting back and like, watch this,
watch my guy start his run.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
But I don't know how many people actually believe that. Yeah,
go ahead, teller.
Speaker 7 (13:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (13:35):
So I'm kind of worried about Drake May now because
after that Broncos game, there was a clip that was
going around where he's talking with his wife postgames. She
taps on his shoulder and he kind of winces, and
everybody's like, is Drake May hurt? And they kind of
dismissed it. And then Drake May shows up on the
injury report, the first injury report, he was listed as
limited for a right shoulder injury, and the Patriots kind
(13:57):
of downplayed it. And then comes along today comes along
and Drake May was not present for the media access
portion of Friday's practice. I'm starting to get a little
worried that Drake May is a lot more hurt than
the Patriots are leading on.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Aren't they saying this one's a sickness, right? He's just saying, Hey,
I'm trying to be.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
Smart keep them away from other people, which I would
buy any team that's traveling anybody.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Yeah, you probably can get sick.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
If it is sort of an extension of that right
shoulder injury, and they're a little concerned about that.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
That clearly would be something i'd be freaked out about.
You had Rabel playing chess nut checkers?
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Is that what you're doing there? I mean, his penis
is at stake. Put it on the poll. Is Rabel's
penis at steak?
Speaker 9 (14:38):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (14:38):
It's interesting though, because he'd probably want to lose if
he's worried about it.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Yes, they're just they're not storylines to your point that
you can really latch onto. You know, it's not anyone
playing for a legacy. It's not a guy who needs
to win a Super Bowl. Sam Darnold doesn't need to
win a super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
He's done enough. You're almost hate watching.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
If you don't love the Patriots, you're hate watching the Patriots,
which you've done for two decades now. More than that
the Seahawks, Like if the Seahawks hadn't gone through the
you know, Russell Wilson Legion of boom Era. Then I
would say, wow, this is refreshing story by these Seahawks.
But the only really part of that, like I said,
is Darnold, which you know, multiple teams, and then it's
(15:16):
you know. I think a young breakout talent like Jackson
Smith and Jigba is always fun to watch, especially at
that position. But again, I just go watch highlight footage
of him. I don't need to see him in the
super Bowl to think that this guy's gonna be it.
I already know he's the guy.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Yep. I have found out today that Taylor will be
attending the super Bowl. How about that? I mean correct,
that's pretty cool for the super Bowl.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
Yeah, for super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
Wow, So you're getting back in time for Monday show
or should we find somebody else to do the VIP route?
Speaker 5 (15:44):
So we're working on the logistics of that.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Yes, he's planning on doing Monday show from Radio Row. Okay,
that's fine. I'm worried he'll never leave.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
That would be even sadder than k Rod like a
Crickets Radio Row like posts Wow day after Yes, let's.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Hope for it.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Be sure to catch live editions of Stu Godsend Company
Live week Day, said three pm Eastern twelve pm Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Let's go out to Uh, We're gonna take a stroll
down sound Street. Audio as the right, Yes, two different streets. Yes,
Audio Avenue is where we're going. Sound Street. We'll get
your lost. We'll do it in a second.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Here. Let's go to a J. Coole who's in La today?
Go ahead?
Speaker 7 (16:25):
J Cole, Hey congrabs on the New Show, loving it.
Congrats Izzy, mikey A and Taylor, but also shame on
Mikeya and Taylor's. These Yankee fans were complaining about the
Kyle Tucker contract and calling for a salary cap. Terrible
job by them. A salary cap is shameful. It's like
complaining about how much do Got pays you and them
voting to give him more power over how you're paid.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Wait a second, that's exactly what's happening here.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Cha, Cool. Let me ask you you're from LA. Are
you a Dodger fan?
Speaker 9 (16:56):
Born? Raise?
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Okay, I know it.
Speaker 5 (16:59):
I can sniff a dog just fan out from a
mile away.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Like Gary Meyer said to me yesterday, what do you think? Cool?
Is right? Taylor? You can't you can't ask for a
salary cap.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
You just heard the big announcement of the NFL salary
cap jumping to a big number, and it's like, oh, great, NFL.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Players are going to get more money that they deserve,
Like we should go ahead and get rid of salary J.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Coles point is, you cannot be a fan of the
team who benefited from no salary cap. But the second
it goes the other way on you and the Dodgers
just spending all the money, suddenly you want a salary cap, right,
I mean, Taylor can have it.
Speaker 7 (17:32):
They were spending way more than the Dodgers.
Speaker 9 (17:36):
The Dodgers are just.
Speaker 7 (17:37):
One of like five teams spending three hundred millions. The
Yankees are spending way more than the rest of the
league at the time. I mean, you guys had al Duque,
one of my favorite players. We have you have a moto.
It's just that's s assesses how time. That's that's how
times go. Sorry, anyways, enjoy Super Bowl wee cleb.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Y'all right, thank thank you, thank you. J Cole appreciated
Taylor's upsets.
Speaker 6 (17:55):
Yeah, I mean this season, I'm rooting for the Yankees.
The second season ends, I'm rooting for the strike.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
So the Dodgers of the New Evil Empire, because they've
got a four hundred million dollars salary cap.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Taylor put it on the pole.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
If you're a Yankee fan, are you rooting for the
strike to fix baseball? Which is laugh out loud funny
that Yankee fans would be upset at the Dodgers for
doing exactly what it is Steinbrier did for many, many,
many years, but now it's going the other way. The
Dodgers spend money on the right players. Dodgers are band
for baseball, period, but they spend.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Money on the right players. When they spend the money,
it's usually on the right players. Is he that's the difference.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
I'm trying to think, Yes, I'm trying to think of
what people would do, because I don't think people don't
really watch baseball like that. But if you don't have
baseball in the summer, what are we It's gonna feel
like a ghost down?
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Like what do you do a ghost down?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Anyways, you got WNBA, I suppose you don't have a
summer Olympics. I mean, I guess you got the World
Cup or whatever you but man, I'm not cheering for
a strike anymore.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
The World Cup is this summer? It is, right?
Speaker 5 (19:02):
What big one for the USA?
Speaker 11 (19:05):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Really? It's always a big one for the USA.
Speaker 5 (19:07):
Huh on home soil though, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
And that's the only reason, that's the only one them
playing forever.
Speaker 9 (19:14):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Really, you have them having home field advantage.
Speaker 5 (19:16):
Do you yep? Against the Italians the Brazils.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Oh, you don't think Brazil is going to travel? Huh.
The fans aren't going to travel here in Miami.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
Let's let's not pull on that thread. I don't know
how many people are going to travel these days to
this country. Thank you for coming, shure A good amount
of people backing out?
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yes?
Speaker 12 (19:32):
Is he?
Speaker 2 (19:33):
I'm not certain? Are you ready for a stroll down audio? Ev?
I am? I am now that I told my embarrassing
called the sex story the other day.
Speaker 9 (19:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (19:41):
Good.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
I'm not certain, and I'm upset because we didn't do
nearly enough with this. If you've heard some of this
sound let's start here with Sean Payton talking about bow Nicks,
his quarterback, talking about his ankle.
Speaker 11 (19:55):
They always find a little bit more when they could win,
and it wasn't a matter of it, it was a
matter of Whens so because when you look at the play,
you're trying to evaluate it, he said. The doctor operating
surgeon said that this was going to happen sooner than later.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Jesus, that is too much information. Yeah, you think Bonix
agrees with you. Here's Bonix responding to his head coaches comments.
Speaker 13 (20:21):
Nothing predisposed, nothing that was there originally. I might have
gotten confused, but you know, it's just a simple step
with my foot up in the air. My body weight
came down on it and sort of got twisted up
and got out of there pretty quick. I think that's
the good part of being athletics. Sometimes your body gets
(20:42):
out of worse situations. So it could have been a
worse landing. But I think all that force went into
the only place it could and it was just one
of those missteps and didn't have any predisposed issues. Man,
my ankles were feeling really good. I don't think he
really should share how many surgery I've had in the past.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
To be honest with you, this is the crazy parts.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
Due.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Yes, let's thank bo Nicks for being honest. Thank you.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
Yes, this is like if you just watch football and
let's say you didn't read in like New Orleans papers,
when he was, when Sean Payton was there, or wherever
he was, even the Russell Wilson situation, like seems like,
you know, capable coach, communicates well with.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Others, not a bad person.
Speaker 4 (21:26):
But then you see situations like this and you hear
him and it's like, hold the phone, man, are you
telling me what a surgeon told bow Nicks. So, first
of all, he shared that information with you, which he
probably even shouldn't be necessarily if he doesn't want to,
but you just feel all willingness to share that with
everybody and then get it wrong, because look, I do
(21:49):
not believe there's a surgeon out there that said he
was going to get hurt regardless now he had already
torn or broke whatever he broke, Like you can't really tell, oh,
yeah this was after the fact, right, and so and
you heard him say, oh, maybe he said, maybe I
was a little confused. I believe yeah, maybe he was
somewhat confused even as he told that story.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
But he never once thought it was going.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
To be repeated on national airwaves for everybody to hear.
And then you get the really interesting part about this too,
is like and I don't even know if Sean actually
thought about this, or if he was just kind of
a jerk and didn't realize it. If you're telling me
that his ankle for some reason is predisposed to this injury,
you're also telling me that maybe you know, weak joints,
(22:33):
weak body parts, maybe he won't recover from this act.
And you're directly reaching into his pocket and concerning and
making people concerned with his health and maybe not paying
him the big quarterback dollars when it's time for his
contract to come up. And it's just like I thought
we were on the same team here, coach the championship game. Yes, yes,
(22:55):
you're gonna have Speaking of salary caps, you're gonna have
a salary cap anyway. You're gonna have to struggle and
side which teams or which players are gonna you know
you're gonna fit under your cap. Don't mess with me,
ye quarterback, right like if you want to talk down
the road and say, hey, let's restructure your contract quarterbacks
in the past, I've done this all the time to
try to get this guy under contract. Let's do that,
(23:15):
but getting ahead of it by giving out information you
shouldn't be. It's just one of those deals where if
I'm like the head of the organization, I'm going to
Sean and be like, Sean, you got a chill, Like,
you can't do this in the future.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
You have to be more careful with what you say. Oh,
they should have to tell Sean that, shure, I shouldn't
know that. It's simply the right thing to do.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Bo Nix is a guy who got him to the
AFC Championship Game, and had he stayed healthy, probably would
have gotten them to the super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
And I would I would approach that conversation with Sean
saying Sean, I don't think I have to tell you this,
but let's talk this out because you just messed up, right, Bo, Like,
we don't want you guys to have a contentious relationship,
Like obviously coach and head coach and quarterback is the
relationship you want to be together. You want them to
be unified. You want them to be on the same page.
(23:58):
And like now where starting success together. And when he's
gonna go into his higher priced contract with more pressure,
you're gonna tell people that his ankle was predisposed to injury.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
It just doesn't He just didn't think that went through.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
You're questioning his body, You're questioning his ability to stay healthy.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
You're doing a lot of bad things to a quarterback
that's done nothing but win for you. It's crazy.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
You're sharing very private conversations, yes, on air, which is
not a great characteristic.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Yes, you're right.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Let's go to the Bill Pollion sound now, since we're
taking a stroll down audio avenue. And I didn't want
to go back to Belichick today, but I have to
because we didn't do enough with this sound, because I
didn't hear this sound until I was driving home yesterday.
Here is Bill Pollion explaining whether or not he voted
for Bill Belichick.
Speaker 14 (24:46):
I voted for coach Belichick in the Hall of Fame
selection meeting. The Pro Football Hall of Fame has confirmed
that fact through the auditors of the selection process. Again,
I'll state that I know ever said that I believe
that Coach Belichick should quote wait a year, a close
quote for enshrinement. This has been confirmed by the Hall
(25:07):
of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, numerous selectors who
were in the room, and my vote for Coach Belichick.
As a Hall of Fame member and selector, I realized
the import of what we do I've always tried as
a selector to make these difficult choices with the utmost
but objectivity. I've sat on serious XM Radio and numerous
(25:29):
other media outlets that I believe coach Belichick to be
a first ballot Hall of Famer.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
My vote confirms that.
Speaker 6 (25:37):
So there's no denying that he voted for Belichick and
that he's nervous, and he's very nervous. Everybody's got their
their pitchforks out for him. But is he What mikey
A suggested earlier was that Bill Pollyan raised the question
should we.
Speaker 5 (25:55):
Leave him out for cheating?
Speaker 6 (25:56):
Just so it would get the conversation going, And the
second Bill poll we encounted, Okay, we have enough votes
against Belichick, he won't be a first ballot Hall of Famer.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
I did my job.
Speaker 6 (26:07):
Now I'm going to vote for Bill Belichick because the
numbers are already in our favor.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
That was my That would be my follow up. I'd
be like, Uh, Bill Israel, good chairs here from Sirius
XM Radio. Uh, did you direct anybody else to not
vote for him so that you could be in the clear,
because that's one of the Yeah, you just go up
in the meeting, and it's like, listen, I'm going to
vote for Bill Belichick. Yes, it would be a terrible
look if I don't vote for Bill Belichick. But I
(26:33):
understand those of you who will not vote for Bill
as a penalty for Spygate. I will repeat, I will
not be upset at any of you who didn't vote
for Bill Belichick because of Spygate.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Thank you. My time is done.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
They should televise the votes. I mean, I'd watch now.
I didn't care before, but now I'm glued Survivor style.
I want to see how this thing works. This unfold
piece of paper boom. These are my three picks.
Speaker 6 (27:01):
If we had a visual of Bill Pollion walking off
with his tiki torch and then he reveals a piece
of paper that says Bill Belichick or not Bill Belichick,
that would be one of the best things. The super
Bowl would be the highest rated thing. The Hall of
Fame voting would be the second highest thing.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
And then I'm not certain it wouldn't have higher ratings
to be honest with you.
Speaker 6 (27:20):
Guys, and the Hall of Fame needs it because this
is the only time we ever talked about the Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Yes, and Bill Poleon. He would vote for Bill.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
He would say Bill, Yes, but it would come with
a little sad face underneath.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
He's like, this is how I feel about it. I
was more thinking just what are we doing?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
As Bill Pollion sounded nervous addressing whether or not he
voted for Bill Belichick, It's.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
Like ninety five percent sure you know it hurt your
hand to write that name in.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
No question about it. God, that is funny, Izzy. I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
I'm gonna play some Novak Djokovic sound here in a
second as we stroll down Audio Avenue and again, Eric
Manngini get to join us at four twenty five Radio Row.
Super Bowl Week starts with me right there at four
twenty five. I'll be doing it from here, but my head,
we'll be in San Francisco. Okay, uh Novak, joke of it.
I keep telling you that I wake up. I don't
(28:11):
like this Australian open man. I don't like the difference
of times.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
I don't like I wake up. Okay, Well let me
start here.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Is he Carlos Alcarez or Alcatraz as we called him
Bob yesterday.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
He's taking on and I can't.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Pronounce this guy's name. That's why I don't like tennis.
Tennis and the updates bad. When I was doing sports
updates and there was a major going on, Oh would
I do everything good to avoid some of these tricky names.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
I'm confused by this Devrev Yeah, that kuy Okay? Yeah,
how do you say itv Okay?
Speaker 1 (28:43):
So I went to sleep last night. Maybe it was
like twelve twelve thirty and Alcarez was up two sets
to none, figure the match was over. I wake up
and around three forty five, four o'clock have to go
to the bathroom. TV still on and Alcaraz is still
playing and they're in a fifth set. And that's why
(29:04):
I'm exhausted, because I started watching the match and then
after that Novak Djokovic ended up beating Skinner to make
it to the Sinner.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
I'm sorry, I'm tired. I'm telling you. It was up
all night watching tennis.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Makes it to the finals to take on Alcoraz, which
is going to be a great final.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
But I don't like this Australian Open.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
But I do like this sound from the joker, Novak
Djokovic talking about the chasing. Well, i'll play it for you.
The back and forth here with a reporter and we'll
get your thoughts on.
Speaker 12 (29:33):
It is in the early part of your career when
you were chasing Roger and Rafa for titles, and now
at the back end of your career you're chasing Yannick
and Carlos.
Speaker 15 (29:44):
I'm chasing Yanick and Carlos in which sense in terms
of winning Grand Slam titles.
Speaker 10 (29:49):
Just right now, So I'm always the chaser and I'm
never being chased.
Speaker 12 (29:52):
In the meantime, you won twenty four Grand Staff. But
I'm saying thank you.
Speaker 10 (29:56):
It's worth worth saying that sometimes, right, Sorry, Yeah, So.
Speaker 12 (30:03):
What I'm saying is, is it possible to compare the
way you felt initially when you were chasing Roger and Raffa.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
With now when Yannick and Colors had split the.
Speaker 12 (30:11):
Last place left.
Speaker 15 (30:14):
Well, I find it a little bit disrespectful that you
kind of miss out on what happened in between. Where
the times when I started chasing, as you say, Rafa
and Roger and now that I'm chasing Carlos and Yannick.
And there's probably about fifteen year period in between where
(30:34):
I was dominating the Grand Slam. So I think it's
it's important to put that in prospect, in perspective.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
He got there.
Speaker 4 (30:44):
I was hoping it didn't end with putting it in prospect.
You love that sound, well, I have it for a
couple of reasons. What I'm not a huge Joker fan,
And it's partially because he is that level of stubborn
where he's the type of guy who's even if you
prove him wrong.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
He was I wasn't wrong. I just wasn't as right
as I usually am.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Like, that's the type of guy he is right and
so here he's like the second he hears something questionable
in the question, he's like, stop, I must interrupt this
question and tell you that that is false information. So
but I do agree with that though, it's because he's
never chasing these guys. So if you look at it,
as you know, Alcaraz and Sinner were working their way
up to reach the level of play that Novak Djokovic
(31:21):
is at and can beat him on the regular, Yes,
they were chasing him, but once they've caught up and
potentially passed him. I think the false equivalency there is
that Joker doesn't think or that he cannot beat Sinner
or Alcoraz. Now that they're above him. That's nonsense.
Speaker 8 (31:39):
He can.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
He knows how to win those twenty four Grand Slams
that he built up. There were times, I guarantee you there,
whether it be final, semifinals, what have you, where he
didn't think he necessarily had his entire game right and
could still beat the guy on the other side.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
And so with Sinner, I know it's because it just
happened today.
Speaker 4 (31:58):
He thinks he can stay with him for long enough,
which he did, and he can outlast him by playing
smart and maybe playing his best in the fifth set,
where Sinner is more you know kind of I wouldn't
say chokes, but you know, doesn't come up with the
big shot as regularly when he's playing against Djokovic. So
he's not chasing those guys. He's trying to get his
(32:18):
twenty fifth. He's trying to complete his sort of you know,
his entire resume. Yes, but he knows any time he
steps out against Alcaraz or Sinner, they might be better
at this time in their career, but I can still
beat them.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Yes, And it wasn't the other way around.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
When Sinner and Yah and the Alcoras were on their
way up facing Yokovic in his prime. They pretty much
knew it's like a five percent chance I can win
this game, right.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
I just called him Skinner eight seven seven ninety nine
on Fox. That's eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
Your calls coming up next.

Thank you both. Yeah, we're printed out. We're learning on
the fly together.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Here, okay, us Sherman Taylor in the VIP room connectiquette,
Ah Sherman, Let's take a couple of calls here Let's
go to Tony, who's in Virginia today?
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Tony, go ahead, you're on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 9 (33:45):
Hey, I've got a quick snub list. But if I
can real quick, cornhidser as stand the Duke Davis one time?
How it gets the names right? And tennis? He said,
I don't know if they're right, just so stam where
nobody else knows if I'm wrong at any rate? So
here here's my top five. Number five baseball player Franklin Snubs,
number one college based basketball coach Snubby Smith, number three
(34:10):
fielder field their quarterback, Snubby Brister, number two an entire team,
the Chicago Snubs, and number one the nursery rhyme rubber
dove Snub.
Speaker 3 (34:20):
How about that that?
Speaker 9 (34:23):
How about that? Sound a little like me, Allen. I'll
do better next time.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Okay, I'll call back every day, please, Okay, that was
a great call. Well, yes, thank you, Tony. Let's go
out to Wally, who's in Wisconsin today? Go ahead, Wally,
Wally Way all right?
Speaker 2 (34:45):
Trying to think if I know anyone named Wally we
zerbiak backman.
Speaker 1 (34:54):
Let's go to uh, why do we have so many
callers whose first name the initial in their first name
is also the initial in their city.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
It's a literative show. Makes it very difficult on me.
Let's go to al in Albuquerque.
Speaker 9 (35:07):
Go ahead, out, it's you guys, fourth time, long time.
Speaker 16 (35:12):
A quick question for you guys, who was the guy
when when you heard he made the Hall of Fame
your first thought was, I can't take it seriously anymore
because for me, it's Harold Baines.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
I'll hang up at you all right, thank you for
the call. For mine, it was Joe Mauer.
Speaker 4 (35:28):
We actually had this conversation yesterday, al and I believe
you're on a streak, right, four straight days or is
it just four days?
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Four time? Long time? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (35:37):
But uh, in my head, and this is this is
not my opinion of this player, because I think this
player is a Hall of Famer. But I remember at
the time, based on people's reactions for the Pro Basketball
Hall of Fame, it was Mitch Richmond. It was Mitch
Richmond because he was what a five time All Star,
and especially in his era, he was most of his
(35:58):
career stuck with the Kings, and nobody really really paid
attention to him out there. He was obviously behind Michael
Jordan and Clyde Drexler in the sort of hierarchy of
shooting guards was probably right there with Reggie Miller in
terms of how people thought of him. And so when
he got in a lot of people's reaction was Hall
is stupid.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Nobody everybody gets in. But I like h Mit Trickman. Well,
that's nice of you to say I love him.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
He was the team that I loved that made me
fall in love with NBA basketball was the run TMC
Warriors when I was what eleven, twelve, thirteen years old,
So he was a big fixture in my basketball fandom.
Speaker 5 (36:34):
I also thought of Wally Joyner.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (36:39):
He didn't mean to bring the show to a stop there,
but I was just thinking of Wally.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
But you had to get it in.
Speaker 5 (36:43):
What about the movie Wally?
Speaker 2 (36:47):
Had nothing to do with Wally Joiner? Although Wally Joyner
is a good name to have somebody join the Hall
of Fame? Right, what about the movie? Taylor? Tell us
about it? What about Wally the movie? Looking it up?
Speaker 9 (37:01):
No, No, I was.
Speaker 6 (37:03):
I was looking up Red Sox mascot, Wally, the Green Monster,
Jesus Christ, a lot of waies.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
Yeah, you needed a fit. That's not the Deal, p's
and c's coming soon. Will these are acts the best
Wally Wally Buckman
