You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
I am so happy to see my friend Diana Rassini,
who broke the news of this radio show before I did.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
I am such a good insider. I know all and media.
Were you mad when I did that? Were you like,
what is she doing?
Speaker 5 (00:37):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
No, No, I wasn't. I would have liked.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
I would have liked to have broken my own news,
but I was glad that you did it. I think
it's a better look I do. Did you find out?
I need tell you it's good journalism?
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Like, all right, I'm gonna have the senior insider for
the New York Times put out my life as if
she really cares about it. So it worked out all good.
So I'm so glad the news got out come. Congratulations
on everything.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Thank you.
Speaker 6 (01:02):
This is this is perfect for you.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
So I'm looking forward to hearing the show, but I'm
also looking forward to joining a lot. I hope you
guys call me incessantly and asked me to come on,
especially in the middle of coaching hirings and firings while
I have nine million things going and Taylor reaches out, Hey,
can you hop on for.
Speaker 6 (01:22):
A minute or no?
Speaker 4 (01:24):
No, But I will say he may be the best
booker I deal with, because when I say booker, I
mean just like a request because it's always so polite,
and it works to his favor because I can't say
no because he's.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
So nice, right, And that's why she doesn't come on
as much.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
I think I come on the way I taught him,
by the way you put.
Speaker 6 (01:46):
Them under pressure and you see their lives over black pail.
Speaker 7 (01:48):
That the requests always come in timid, because it's like
the day of all the coach firing, it's always it
was like, hey, can you reach out to Diana. I'm like, no,
I know what this answer is going to be, so
let me just let me just say, Hey, if tomorrow
works better, please do tomorrow too.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
That's always a good out for me. It helps, And
then I always think about it and I'm like, I
should just hop on you know, but it's it's not
that I don't want to come on here and hang
with you. It's I don't want to miss a call
that I think is nothing that actually turns into something,
because that's usually how you get stories. He's you're talking
about some basketball game and then all of a sudden
he's like, oh, yeah, by the way, I asked for
(02:26):
a trade today, and you're like.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Wait, what happened to Chefter on our show?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Yes, he was taking basketball calls and he missed an
NFL story.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
His boss got missed the worst.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
Because nobody cares. Nobody wants to hear me. No, I'm
not going to tweet. Yes I had that first, but
I was doing stupid show.
Speaker 8 (02:45):
I can't wait to ask her to come on four
row five? Can you on legal tamper.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
The people? What show are you doing?
Speaker 6 (02:55):
What? What are they paying you nothing?
Speaker 4 (02:58):
They're paying you nothing and you're not breaking stories for
us and we pay you help us under make sense
of this rest.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Oh, you are so funny. This is the craziest. By
the way, are you tired? Like, do you want to
get out of here? Thursday?
Speaker 9 (03:12):
Four?
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Okay? You do? I know you do, because I can't
believe I'm saying this. This is heaven to me.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
It's all away from home, and yet I'm exhausted and
want to leave.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
I missed everything last night because I thought to myself,
I just need quiet and sleep for a good seven hours,
and I did that, which I am queen of FIMO, like,
I can't miss anything. If you really want to get
in my head and mess with my emotions, text me
that you are at a party list off a couple
high profile people in football and be like, and it
(03:41):
was incredible. I'll lose my mind. We had snowstorms in
Jersey during the AFC and NFC championship game, so I
couldn't get out to the championship weekend. And I can't
tell you the pain I was going through that I
missed those games because of the snow, like for three days.
Speaker 10 (03:59):
Like that's weird.
Speaker 6 (04:00):
So back to your original question of being tired, and
I am.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
I think I'm getting better with Super Bowl week of
going It's okay not to be everywhere all the time,
but yeah, I need a nap all day, just one
long nap throughout the afternoon.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Yes, I'm afraid to leave this stage. I can't walkfud don't.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
It's just shark waters out there, and people are asking
me things that I have to think about a little bit,
because if I just say what I.
Speaker 6 (04:27):
Want to say, I'm trying to get in trouble.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Of course I did.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
I think I did something with you last year, and
again not thinking said something, trying to get better at that.
Speaker 6 (04:37):
I don't know what's happened.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
I've noticed thinking, yes, I've noticed I've let things rip
faster without like going through the filter in my head
like I used to. Because as you get older, you
do care less, of course, but you need to care
if you want to do this job. So I wish
I could put something in my brain like chat GPT
to screen everything I'm saying before I say.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
It's a weird thing because you care less, but you
have to think more. As you get older, you get
yourself into trouble.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Correct correct, yes, like yeah, I'm not even gonna go
see see.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah, but look at your friend telling you to stop.
I mean, you know what happened to you?
Speaker 10 (05:15):
Of all people told me to cut it down.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
I'm growing up, I know.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Finally, the age of fifty three, was this the craziest
coaching carousel you've ever seen like I feel like you
have been at this for three months right now.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
It's it was the most relentless experience I've ever been
through in terms of breaking news. Like I'm talking seven
days a week, twenty four to seven. I put my
son's to bed with the phone under the pillow. I'm
in the shower, I'm in the name a place that
you shouldn't be with your phone, and I had it
with me and stuff was happening, Like that was the difference,
(05:47):
Like I've always always carried my phone with me anyways,
but to be in places like I was an answer
called church, Like what am I doing?
Speaker 6 (05:54):
What is my life? But there was just so many surprises,
And then I think that's what it was.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
All the rumors, all the things we've heard over the years,
everything came true this year. Yeah, And I have to
tell you I wasn't in shape for this, like because
it is a little bit like free agency, you like
rev up for you're like ready for it, Like I'm
gonna be committed to this for twelve days. I'm not
gonna sleep, I'm not gonna eat. My family's gonna hate me,
my husband's gonna threatened divorce. But we've signed.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
Up for this this. I didn't sign up.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
I was not ready. And we're getting divorced at the
end of the year, right.
Speaker 8 (06:30):
Stop breaking news hard, We're going through it.
Speaker 2 (06:35):

Speaker 10 (06:39):
He doesn't even know who I am.
Speaker 2 (06:40):

Speaker 10 (06:42):
I think he's okay.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Oh, yes, we've talked about We've never been more disconnected
in our lives.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
Our text messages look like two robots. Hello, Hello, we just.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Go through the motions. Yes, is he in the divorce?
You of that love? You love you too?
Speaker 10 (07:02):

Speaker 4 (07:04):

and perfectly dressed, because Kevin's so good at that, right,

Speaker 2 (08:01):

Speaker 10 (08:02):
He looks good.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
He's successful, his wife's never around.
Speaker 6 (08:06):
You love this football thing. He probably looks good. I
don't get I don't.
Speaker 10 (08:12):
I went right back out.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
I go, why would you see that to me right
now while I'm on a trip that my husband has
a girlfriend, and just keep atty on your toes?
Speaker 6 (08:20):
You know, you know I don't need to be kicking
my toes.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
I need help. She likes you to be in the most.
It's so messed up across then.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
As far as you can be from New Jersey. Right now,
there's nothing I can do. And yet she's out here
throwing things in my head. Right now I'm wondering. I'm
like that one girl in his office is really pretty. Yeah, shoot,
you're right, I'm gonna call later.
Speaker 10 (08:49):
Naked.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
You start repairing it from here.
Speaker 10 (08:55):
Start laying the ground work.
Speaker 6 (08:58):
You'll be like, hey, show me a picture of the stae.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
It's just me naked. You don't want to worry back.
I don't want that.
Speaker 10 (09:05):
Who wants that?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Nobody?
Speaker 2 (09:07):
I said, I wanted the stadium is take one there?
Speaker 10 (09:12):
Did you talk to aj?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I got pulled over again, really texting driving.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
I was texting and driving because this coaching cycle is
ridiculous and relentless and exhausting, and you can't drive two
feet to get a cup of coffee without something happening, right,
And so the officer pulls me over. I've gotten pulled
over twice in a month.
Speaker 10 (09:32):
Actually.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
The first time, Joey was screaming in the back. He
opens the window and he goes, you got enough problems.
Go and he let me go because he's felt so
bad for the ridiculousness.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
He saw your kid.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Okay, So the second time, I don't want to say
too much of this, but I'm not going to say
the team or the coach. But the police officer pulls
up and I said, listen, Sean McDermott just got fired.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
I am breaking. I am in the middle of this
right now.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
I know you don't care as a police officer, but
I feel like I need to let you know this.
And he said, well, I'm not a Bills fan. I'm like, oh,
you're Jet, so this is good news for you, right
like he said no, and so he names the team.
I go, oh, I love that team. I go, do
you want to touch the coach?
Speaker 2 (10:10):
You just took to the coach?
Speaker 4 (10:11):
I FaceTime the head coach head coaches in his office.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
He's like, what's up? I go, I just got pulled
over and I just wanted to meet my friend.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Officer jout and the head coach played all inside.
Speaker 6 (10:23):
And he's like, how you doing.
Speaker 10 (10:24):
He's like, you should let her go. She's a good citizen,
you know.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
Officers just like, what is happening right now? Who does that?
I was desperate. I was I don't want to get
a taken. My husband's gonna kill me, texting and dry.
I shouldn't be doing that.
Speaker 6 (10:38):
I know that.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Oh my god, I am so proud of you. I've
always to get out of a ticket.
Speaker 6 (10:44):
To get out of a.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
Ticket, I wish I had that, Like, what a nasty play?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
But it worked right, And so you've never used anything
like that to get out of a ticket.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Sorry, my brain was just gonna was thinking about I've
put out some reports about that coach that Barley aren't greatest, Oh.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Back a lot.
Speaker 10 (11:03):
But that's the problem.
Speaker 6 (11:04):
I can't. Yeah, I rap out too many feathers, right,
and I live in it. I sit in it. I
spend the day fighting with people.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yes, listen, I like having you on the show outside
of football season.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
More than I do inside of football season. This is
this is why the problem.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
No, no, no, no, I don't understand it though, Like
I need Do you think I'm good.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
At my job? I think you're great at your job? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (11:26):
Do you think I'm a top journalist in the football space?
How come nobody cares about my.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Reporting because they care about you?
Speaker 9 (11:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (11:35):
Yeah that No, because I just think that the whack
job that comes with it is a little bit more
interesting than me saying, you know, Sean mcdermom's getting fired,
you know.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
I mean, which was surprising for a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
No, but I was asking Jay Glazer this earlier, Like
the information is still more important, The transaction is still
more important than the actual action to a lot of people,
which I find amazing.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
So people do care about what you're reporting, you know,
they do?
Speaker 1 (11:58):
They also care about you because you're like this when
you're on Joe's like with.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
Me, Well, I don't think they're used to people do
this job to be normal human beings, right, because we
we've it's hard to let loose and do this job
because there is a serious nature to it.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
There's credibility that comes with that. People trust you with.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
Information, so you don't want to be a clown show
where they're like, I don't want to give this woman
information if she's acting like this, Whereas I've actually kind
of leaned into being a person when I deal with
players and coaches and gms and whoever I talk to
in football as a way to connect, you know, Whereas
I've worked with people who can be a little tight
about it. They don't have personalities with the players, Whereas
(12:39):
like I'm I'm I'm me All.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Yeah, you have a great personality.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
And so like I told stephen A this, like he
jumped into the circus step with me, right, And you know,
but when steven A still reports something, I believe it
because it's steven A.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Smith.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
I don't care about what he's doing elsewhere. He's reporting
something correct.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Yeah, And sometimes the information that the opinions he's giving
are based off info he knows.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
Yes, So sometimes I want to scream.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
At people when they get mad if I have a
take on something, I'm like, you think I just thought
of this opinion because I woke up today having.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
A strong thought about this.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
I'm probably using something I know that I can't say fully.
Speaker 6 (13:13):
Yes, yeah, common sense is hard.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Yes, all right, go go take your clothes off and
call your husbands.
Speaker 10 (13:20):
But what are you doing later?
Speaker 4 (13:21):
I'm naked with my husband on FaceTime and he does
not care.
Speaker 6 (13:25):
He's blocking me.
Speaker 10 (13:26):
Now that's something he'd do. He just blocked me after that.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
All right, Well, all right, get out of here.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
Anyone has return, Let me know we love you.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Thank you for being such a great friend and everything.
Speaker 10 (13:41):
I appreciate you.
Speaker 6 (13:42):
Guys, enjoy the rest of the week.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Yes, I've signed you up once a week as a
co host. Okay, okay, thanks, send me up.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Be sure to catch live editions of Stu Godson Company
Live weekdays said three pm Eastern twelve pm Pacific.
Speaker 11 (13:58):
Stu Godson Company Live Radio Row in San Francisco in
advance of Super Bowl sixty on Fox Sports Radio. I'm
Dan Byer for over forty years, Tyrak has been helping
customers find the right tires for how, what and where
they drive. Ship Fast and free backs by free Road
has the protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire
installation Tierraq dot com the way tire buying should be.
(14:19):
We are four and a half days in the radio
row at Super Bowl sixty. Stu Gottson Company have finally
decided to play by the rules. That's what happens when
Joe Coole stops by.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
I have a rule radio row super Bowl week that
when Joe Montana wants to come on your show, you
push everything else aside and you take Joe Montana and
you put them on your show. And the great Joe Montana,
perhaps the greatest quarterback I've ever seen, is with us
right now. And he's with us on behalf of Guinness. Joe,
how are you man?
Speaker 9 (14:51):
I'm doing great, man. How about you guys? It's been
a crazy week yet, just getting started.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Just getting started. What are you doing with Guinness? And
how did you avoid me out the radio row?
Speaker 9 (15:02):
You know what, I was there early this morning, snuck
in and out, so.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
So you can't get it, Joe, You can't sneak in
and out of anywhere? How'd you do that? What do
you mean?
Speaker 9 (15:14):
You know what, there's such a great backway pathway around
the whole thing without going through the middle.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Of founded Joe, you found it. Yes, I've been using it.
Speaker 9 (15:25):
YEA made it, made it out. Yeah. No. We've been
with Guinness for a number of years now and we
we started working on this collaboration on on this this
week logger.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (15:38):
It stemmed from some memories and we have when when
I was playing over in Germany and we went all
the guys after practice would go get it, go.
Speaker 5 (15:46):
Over there and get beer.
Speaker 9 (15:47):
And so this is a limited edition, limited time out,
and I think one of the best things about it
is that working with Guinness, they always are given back
into the communities wherever we go, and this is no different.
Forever you four packed there, they're given five dollars to
(16:07):
the SF. We're in a food bank here here in
San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Nice.
Speaker 9 (16:13):
We're actually about to go over there and start packing
boxes here as soon as I'm done with you. But
they're always doing that and and this is something that
was kind of special for me because it's a lot
different than you'll see than the traditional Guinness, and it's
more of a lighter beer, chrispher beer that you want
(16:33):
to drink cold. And it's just been something that is
very happy to work in collaboration with Guinness on this.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
Hey, Joe, this is Taylor. You're a legend in the
Bay Area in San Francisco. This is my first time here.
I'm wondering if you have any good recommendations for things
to do around the city.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Good question.
Speaker 9 (16:56):
If you if you want to, if you want to
put yourself in a little danger rount a bike and
go across the Golden gate Bridge.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Oh, got's dangerous. I've done it, Joe.
Speaker 9 (17:07):
You can go into Scelito and yeah, there's a you
know that that's probably In fact, my wife and I, Jennifer,
just did that the other day and it's on Sunday.
So it's a little hairy on the weekends because there's
a lot of a lot more bikes. But uh, it's
a fun spot and it's fun ride or you can
(17:28):
you can go. You might see some of your friends
over in Alcatraz.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Joe, that's not nice.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Wait, I love I love the vision of the Montanas
on the Golden gate Bridge on bikes dodging avoiding traffic
and the people walking because you're right, it's very busy there.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (17:48):
Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah, it's fun though. It's a good spot.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
You ever get tired of walking up these hills? Joe?
Speaker 9 (17:56):
I try to avoid deals. I'm in a car.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (18:04):
The funny part is we our oldest granddaughter lives at
the top of the hill. We live in the Marina,
and we walked up to get her sometimes and like,
my wife is like a block and a half ahead
of me, and I'm like, why am I walking with you?
Can you slow down?
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Yes? Joe, you have been through super Bowl Week so
many times? Four times?
Speaker 1 (18:27):
What advice would you get players in terms of just
navigating through what is a tricky week to navigate through?
Speaker 2 (18:32):
It really is. There's a lot going on. So what
would you advise if you could talk to these teams,
what advice would you give them?
Speaker 9 (18:39):
Well, I think the one thing my wife did for me,
especially when we played here and here we played here
in San Francisco, is to take everything off of your plate.
I think the hardest part is, especially once you get
through the super Bowl city that week is and then
(19:00):
whether it's Wednesday or Thursday, when the families can come in.
Let somebody take care of Oh I don't like my room.
Oh I want tickets to this, I want tickets to that.
Can you get the reservations at arrest this restaurant? And
you know, you got to get rid of the distractions
through the week and try to make it as normal
(19:20):
as possible. And you know, I was at one of
the times when we were here. I went to my
cousin's house at the time and just to get away
from everybody, all the family and everything. And then eventually
everybody showed up there and I'm like, ah, and my wife,
My wife is and she sees I'm nervous, and she goes,
(19:43):
why don't you just go get dressed and I'll take
you back to the hotel. And I so I get
back there and I can't get to something about to
slam the door, this sliding door because they couldn't get
it open, and she goes, you know what, just go
get in the car. I'll take care of this. So
the frustrate happens more off the field than just try
to keep your your you're weak as normal as possible.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Who is Joe? Is there a quarterback? You were such
a unique talent, such a unique player, one of my
favorite players growing up. Is there a quarterback you watch
playing today that you say to yourself, Hey, I see
a little bit of myself in that guy?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Is there a quarterback right now?
Speaker 5 (20:23):
God alight?
Speaker 9 (20:24):
I never really approach, you know, watching quarterbacks like that.
I never tried to compare. Everybody's so different, you know, everybody.
Everybody would come up and say, oh, man, I want
to be like you. I go, no, you don't want
to be like me. Be yourself and be be better
than me. That's what you should be trying to do.
And so I don't. I don't try to compare. I mean,
if you look at the differences, I go all the
(20:47):
way back to Sammy Ball, right, name Ball?
Speaker 2 (20:49):
What Auto Graham? But one of them?
Speaker 9 (20:52):
One eleven suit eleven championships before there were Super Bowls?
And how do you compare those guys to the game today?
Speaker 5 (21:00):
It's almost impossible.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Yeah, is there a quarterback for me? It's Caleb Williams.
Is there a quarterback where you're just like, Wow, that
guy is just He's unlike any talent I've ever seen.
Caleb Williams is a special talent to be Joe.
Speaker 9 (21:13):
I have a hard time saying anything about USC players.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
I respect that level.
Speaker 5 (21:22):
No, I'm kidding. I'm just joking.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
You're not kiddy, because Mike gold is a good friend
of mine and he'd say the same thing as you
just said.
Speaker 9 (21:30):
Yeah, but the problem. The thing is, yeah is the
godfather to our youngest son.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
That's so great.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Jee gosh, Joe. Well, one more time here, and we
appreciate the time. It's always always a pleasure to speak
to you.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Yeah. Yeah, we tell everyone again what you're doing for Guinness.
I know you got to run right down.
Speaker 12 (21:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (21:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (21:56):
We got a special beer coming out. It's a weed
Logger and it also, like they said there, it comes
in four packs. It's a lot different than what you
see in the normal Guinness. And this is it gives
back to the community. For every four pack you buy,
five dollars goes to the San Francisco and we're in
food bank and like I said, we're about to head
(22:17):
over there now, because whenever we're in anybody's town, we
go usually to the food banks and help pack boxes
for a while and then move on to another appearance.
But they love to give back and hopefully people will
give this a try. Because it's out only out for
a limited amount of time.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Joe, you are great.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
I love to hear that you're doing this and enjoy
the rest of your week here and enjoy having the
super Bowl and in a city that I know means
a lot to your San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
So thank you for doing this, Joe.
Speaker 9 (22:45):
You know, thank you. Guys, really appreciate the time.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
All right, thank you have a good week.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Okay, thanks yall, you too. We appreciate it.
Speaker 11 (22:51):
Live from Radio Roast du Gottsen Company Live got a
chance to speak with Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Kirk Cousins is with us. How are you, man, I'm
doing well? Yeah to be here. Yeah, what do you
get into this week?
Speaker 13 (23:02):
Making the rounds and making the rounds with Great Clips?
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 12 (23:05):
I was did the Netflix documentary and they chronicled my
life and one of the things in my life is
I go to Great Clips on the regular.
Speaker 13 (23:12):
So that made the.
Speaker 12 (23:13):
Final cut and ended up being able to do a
little partnership with them and kind of spread the gospel
about Great Clips.
Speaker 13 (23:19):
So that's why I'm here today.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
By the way, that documentary and the Quarterback show. My
wife has fallen in love with you and your family.
Speaker 12 (23:27):
Oh yeah, it's amazing there, yes, yes, yeah. So a
lot of people like my wife even more than me.
After seeing the show.
Speaker 13 (23:33):
They're like, you did fine, but your wife was a star.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Ill again your wife?
Speaker 13 (23:37):
Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 8 (23:39):
So I'm on the other side because I'm a Jets
fan and that documentary showed that the Jets were going
hard and you ended up taking taking the Minnesota job,
and I'm just wondering, man, like Joyce you wrong. Yeah,
besides everything.
Speaker 12 (23:53):
Well, you know, Sam Darnold ended up going there instead,
so it's kind of wild to even see his journey now.
He was all tied into that if if I choose
to go there, they don't draft him, at least I
don't think they draft him. So it was interesting how
one domino falls and it affects the rest of the
journey for everybody. But uh, you know, I'd say it's
worked out for Sam. He's worked out for me going
to Minnesota and then through through to Atlanta. So it's
(24:16):
amazing how this legal will take you on on a
wild term. But Sam and I have both been on
that on that journey.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Yeah, Kirk, I'm a Yankee fan.
Speaker 7 (24:22):
Your your cousin, Jake Cousins is a pitcher.
Speaker 12 (24:25):
For the Yeah, I rarely get asked about this, so
able to uh talk about him.
Speaker 7 (24:30):
Who would do better in the other person sport? Jake
as a quarterback, you as a pitcher?
Speaker 12 (24:36):
Yeah, so Jake, Uh, he had been a middle reliever
for the Yankees, made some appearance in the World Series,
like really really.
Speaker 13 (24:41):
Proud of him. Great athlete.
Speaker 12 (24:43):
He pitched in then Ivy League at Penn And uh,
he never really played football. So I played high school
baseball like I was. I was a decent high school
baseball player. I wasn't gonna play, you know, on scholarship
in college.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
But I could.
Speaker 13 (24:54):
I could hang.
Speaker 12 (24:55):
So I'd like to think I could go out there,
maybe be on the hot corner at third base or
you know, to be a reliever for for an inning,
maybe get an out or two. But I think if
Jake had to stand under center and stand there in
the NFL pocket, he wouldn't feel at home. So probably
similar to me if I'd just stand in the batter's box.
But I could throw a few pitches, you know, trying
to change up speeds, and would probably be able to
survive in any.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Yes, but he would not survive a second in your sport.
Speaker 13 (25:17):
Yeah, I don't think he'd want to.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
No, I think he'd preferred baseball. And you get a ticket, sir.
You know what. I went to one game. We were there.
We were there.
Speaker 13 (25:28):
Two summers ago.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Right now.
Speaker 12 (25:29):
I said to my wife, I was like, you know,
we got the summer break and Jake's pitching for the Yankees.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
He's a reliever.
Speaker 12 (25:34):
You never really know when he's going to get in.
But I thought we gotta go. We got to get
out there and and and see him. And so we
did go to a game at Yankee Stadium, which is
really fun, and I'd never been to Yankee Stadium, so cool.
Experience with the spring training with him last year as well,
which is really fun to kind of get behind the
scenes there. So we're pulling for him and we'll see
where things go from this.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
This year the story of Sam Darnold being drafted by
the Jets and then you know, moving on to a
couple of other teams, proving himself in Minnesota, and then
Minnesota is stilled out up and then he goes to
Seattle and now he's playing.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
In the Super Bowl. You love those types of stories,
don't you.
Speaker 12 (26:05):
Well, I think it just shows the tough times don't last.
Tough people do, and you just kept coming back. I
mean I remember playing him first in New York but
then again in Carolina, and he made some throws in
our game against him in Carolina back in twenty one
where you're like, Yeah, this guy's the real deal. He
just needs to get it's a team game. He's got
to get the right pieces around him to help him.
And I think he he was able to see that
in San Francisco, how important it is to have, you know,
(26:26):
all these other pieces that it takes to win. He
saw that when he was backing up went to the
Super Bowl, and then and then he ended up you know,
doing it last year in Minnesota and again now in Seattle.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
All Right, you guys have a game for Kirk Cousins here,
Yes we do.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
They have a game. Don't worry about it. We're springing
this on you right now. But you'll be fine. I'll
protect you, Kirk, I promise you.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
The game is.
Speaker 7 (26:46):
Called cousins or cuzouts.
Speaker 13 (26:48):
Cousins outs.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
I like this.
Speaker 7 (26:50):
If you agree with it, it's cousins. Don't agree with it,
it's cuzz out. Okay, ordering steak well done, cousins are.
Speaker 12 (26:59):
Cut the burger. If a burger needs to be cooked
a little more, that I can get down with that.
Speaker 13 (27:04):
But steak, no way.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Okay. You like the music in the background here, that's
like porn music.
Speaker 12 (27:10):
Pineapple on pizza, cuz out, Like Pepperoni sausage, Pepper's mushrooms.
I can be flexible, but uhn apple to a point.
Fruit on a.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Pizza, No, that's out.
Speaker 7 (27:23):
Schools referring to other schools as a little brother.
Speaker 12 (27:29):
Cuzz out, especially if you beat them. You know, if
you beat your older brother a few times. I don't
really know that he has the right to call you that,
but uh it's a great rivalry and it makes it fun,
spices things up. But uh, there's no doubt that. Uh
that's that's that's been something I've had.
Speaker 8 (27:42):
To live at Super Bowl parties with people who haven't
watched any football all year.
Speaker 12 (27:48):
Yeah, that's tough, especially when you do it for a living. Yes,
cuz out, Yeah, I U I usually end up doing
that though, you know, I end up watching with a
group of people and most of them are, you know,
somewhat disinteresting, and you just kind of.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Have to block it out. I think annoying.
Speaker 13 (28:03):
Keep it to yourself, right, just ketch.
Speaker 7 (28:05):
Up on a hot dog, cousins or cause out, I can.
Speaker 13 (28:07):
Be cousins on that.
Speaker 12 (28:08):
My dad would hate me for My dad grew up
in Chicago, and in Chicago they don't believe you should
put ketch up on a hot dog, on a true
Chicago dog. So to this day, I'll put ketchup on
a hot dog, and my dad will really you know,
you know, heave size and make me feel like a
horrible person. But I'll actually get a Chicago dog and
put ketchup on it.
Speaker 13 (28:26):
Really cardinal sin.
Speaker 12 (28:28):
So uh yeah, maybe that's just my my vice in
life is that I put ketchup on a hot dog.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
But you're doing it to annoy him a little bit.
Speaker 13 (28:35):
Yeah, and it doesn't tastes really good.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Yeah, being in.
Speaker 13 (28:40):
The shower beeing in the shower, cousin.
Speaker 12 (28:44):
Yeah, I just said I like efficiency, Yeah yeah in
the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
What about in the pools?
Speaker 12 (28:54):
I don't think you get away with that one.
Speaker 5 (28:56):
I have.
Speaker 13 (28:58):
I don't need away with that one.
Speaker 7 (29:00):
Right.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Well, do you guys have any board.
Speaker 8 (29:02):
Uh boarding before your group on an airline?
Speaker 13 (29:06):
Yeah, I'm out on that, thank you.
Speaker 12 (29:07):
You know, let's get let's get the earliest group we
can get ahead of time, boarding group one or pre boarding.
Now they have so many groups, so there's pre boarding,
there's pre boarding before the pre boarding. But uh yeah, yeah,
even yesterday we had this issue. I was in like,
boarding group four, and then boarding group five just sprinted
ahead of me. The lady forgot about me. I ended
up being the last guy to board on the plane.
(29:28):
Had to check my bag on the on the jetway.
What are you doing in group four?
Speaker 13 (29:32):
Yeah, I'm saying. I looked at my wife, I'm like,
what are we doing in group four?
Speaker 2 (29:36):
We were?
Speaker 13 (29:38):
You were all kinds of photos of people in line too.
Speaker 8 (29:43):
The other day I was boarding group two and I
swear I was like the third to last person to
get on the plane because it was just they had
so many other You.
Speaker 13 (29:50):
And I are living the same struggle.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
I don't think so. But point I don't think so.
Speaker 8 (29:57):
Nobody's scared when they see you coming for their seat.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Thanks to them, all right, Kirk, This was a lot
of fun.
Speaker 12 (30:03):
Yeah, one more time. Great clips on the way out, man, Yeah,
absolutely great. Clips been big for me and my family.
They got over four thousand locations, so there should be
one near your listeners.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
If they don't like.

Waiting, they can go on the online on the app,
sign in before they go, make the commute time to
wait time, and then get in there, get your hair cut,
and get out and get on with life. So highly
recommend great Clips has been good to me and my
family for a lot of years.

I'm Dan beyerback live on Radio Row at Super Bowl
sixty for one final time here on Stu Gotts and
Company Live, and we end on a high note.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
This is a real treat super Bowl week Radio Row.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Now he's not here, he's joining us on the phone
and Chris Berman is with us right now. What a
treat for us headed up to the Super Bowl. Before
we started, Chris greeted me by saying, happy super Bowl,
like at the national holiday.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
It should be a national holiday, Chris, Right.
Speaker 5 (31:19):
Well, it is. I mean, you know, to ask all
the bosses on Monday morning when everyone's sick. But you know,
at any rate.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
It's great.
Speaker 5 (31:27):
I mean it's it's in the way the weather has
been for so much of the country. Yeah, everyone needs
a national holiday. I mean it's a gathering point and
it's allowed you and I to gather, regather, if that's
a word. After all these years.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Chris, if I told you way back when, when you
got started in our industry that the NFL would turn
into this in twenty twenty six, you would have told
me what.
Speaker 5 (31:54):
Well, I could have seen some of it. I don't
mean like I'm that smart. I mean this is you know,
through the roof obviously, But the Super Bowl when I
first covered it, you know, or already I know, nineteen
eighty one, a lot of your listeners weren't even born.
I get it, but you know that was my first
one at age twenty six. It was actually the Niners
(32:18):
first one, you know, kind of was when the football
made one of its many left hand turns at least
on the field, so already that was a big thing.
But I mean it was ten years plus. So we
had Michael Jackson at halftime, which is not the reason
the game is so huge, but I mean that was.
Oh so we're doing that now as well as the
Super Bowl, you know, and and they had had international
(32:42):
coverage of it, but not Hey, we're going to have
a game in our country, so can we cover the
Super bowls? I mean, ah's so many parts of it
that we wouldn't have known. But by the eighties, by
the time the ESPN and it was sending me as
a young Turk, really covered these things. You know, the
NFL had already become kind of the lead sport. And
(33:04):
that's not the not baseball. You and I both love
it obviously.
Speaker 7 (33:07):
So yes, hey, Chris, this is Taylor. First off, just
you're a legend in this field.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
He knows that. Yes, I don't know that, but go ahead,
thank you, Taylor.
Speaker 7 (33:19):
My question for you is, you have so many great
catchphrases when you're out in public. What's the one that
you get the most.
Speaker 5 (33:27):
Well that's a good question, actually, because there used to
be when I was on all the time, every day,
you know. And I wasn't semi retired like now, and
I was doing baseball and even doing GONF although that
wouldn't be it, but of course always doing football. If
I was going to an airport, if it's a baseball
season and I was doing it a lot, then April
let me ad here back back b B bank, you know,
(33:49):
and then they'd hide behind the post, right and then
and okay, but then it's football season and I get,
you know, he could go all the way. But the
shorter ones now, like every at least, still get asked
all the time say their ate is you know? Or
I get no one circles the wagons, even if the
people aren't from Buffalo. And of course the one that
I get from the younger that I never anticipated is
(34:13):
because everybody could say, right, you're walking this that.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
I've always wondered, Chris, is there something It's such an
amazing resume, but I've always wanted to ask you this,
is there something on that amazing resume that you are
proud of st.
Speaker 5 (34:27):
Of proudest stuff. Well, still got two different, not two
different answers. Okay, the overall biggest thing, and you probably
agree with this as the NFL Prime time you know,
because that's the fact that we still get to do it.
I said a long time ago when they put my
(34:49):
professional tombstone, not my you know, my personal right, you know,
Chris Berman nineteen fifty five to whenever, whatever day you
want to put on it. He did NFL Prime Time,
you know with Tom Jackson now Booger. I mean because
it it had an impact much larger than we ever
(35:10):
saw it and ever dreamed. And the fact that people
tell me that to this day, I've become a football
fan because of that show. Really, back in those days,
I don't have all day Sunday or and I shouldn't
say it's all women, you know, like but my boyfriend
or my husband and this rict. But a lot of
times he looks I didn't have a great relationship with
(35:30):
my dad. I got many of these letters, but that
was one hour a week I spent with him. I mean,
it's like that's larger than Hey, we did a funny highlight,
you know what I mean. So yes, yes, from the
eighties into now. But the other part of your answer,
the answer would be the one thing was baseball was
(35:53):
the night cow Rippken past Luke Garrett on September sixth,
nineteen ninety five, for most consecutive games played. I happened
to be the voice that night, only it was Wednesday night,
and that was the game I did with Buck Martinez,
and you know, fourteen and a half years of never
calling him sick and the iron horse Luke Garrett and
(36:15):
we all remember that, right, And we were so soaked
up and crying out of happiness that we were smart
enough to not speak for twenty three minutes, which is
not the reason I'm saying, you know, that's why. It
just it was a night of bigger than baseball, bigger
than cal And Joe DiMaggio was there representing lu Gary Hello.
Speaker 9 (36:35):
And.
Speaker 5 (36:36):
When he looked up at the sky on the mic
after and said, my teammate Luke Garrey getting guarantee is
looking down and applaud him like whoaahoa. That's pretty deep, right.
And President Clinton came in the booth at the time
I had never met him before. He did what we
knew he was coming, did an enning with us. He's
a baseball fan and so that was unreal and it
(36:59):
was just night for mirth, and I can go on.
So that's the one thing the primetime would be the
broad brush and I figured you'd agree on that part.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
I appreciate the time, and yes, I would love to
do this again SubTime soon.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Thank you so much, Chris.
Speaker 5 (37:12):
All Right, guys, enjoy the week.
