Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well hello Meler militia. Hope things are well. I'll tell
you what.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It was the year anniversary of my stroke on Sinco
to Mayo. Much better, much better this year, but yeah,
just out of nowhere, had a stroke and that was
not good.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Happy stroke aversary, Brian.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Thank you, thank you. Much better.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
This year is out of the blue. I've had good
health my whole life. He's just out of the blue.
And they still don't know what was up. They're like, yeah,
we don't really know, but they've done tests and they're like, yay,
pretty much.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Good to go.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
See you seem so healthy to me.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I am, that's the crazy thing. I'm totally fine.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
But yeah, last Sinkle to Mayo not so fine. But
that was a big speed bump. But everything was fine,
no long term effects.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Good to go.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
So very happy about that, very thankful for that. But yeah,
it was wild last year, man, just crazy. So glad
the year is coming gone and you know, things are
good healthwise. So very happy about that. And some of
the militia hit me up as far as that went.
So appreciate that. I had a post about it the
other day, and so I appreciate the militia being nice.
(01:12):
Militia's been very, very nice to me over the years,
So I absolutely appreciate.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
That fill in.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
What's that filling of the year.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Oh, that's it's just simpathy vote right there, Loren. And
you can't read into that too much, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
It's just like, you know, people love you.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
No Jonas on the ballot, no Moncey, you know what
I mean. It's kind of like the Anne Hathaway thing,
you know, like Jonas is walking by the militias, like,
WHOA look at that guy? If Monzi's walking by the militias,
like whoa look at Manzy?
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Wowow.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
If I'm walking by, they're just like yeah. But if
I'm alone, they're like, well there's nothing else to look at,
and then I get some votes. That's that's what happens
with that, right, And it's the way it went down.
But that's just me, okay. So I got to get
to a couple of things here. One I'm very looking
forward to. I love when we get the cut sheet
(02:09):
and it says in capital letters bad audio. I'm like,
we're zeroing in on that. That's exactly where I want
to go. So WWE Legend, WWE Royalty, Rick Flair hear
about this. He has called out Luka Doncic called him out. Now,
(02:30):
very interesting, Rick Flair. He sent out a tweet and
it's not just the content and what he's saying here,
which obviously matters the most when I take away very interesting.
He capitalizes every first letter of every word. That's how
Rick Flair gets down with tweeting. Right, so you put
(02:51):
Luka Doncic, please get in the game again. Every first
letter of each word is capitalized.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Very odd.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
It's his own thing. You know, Cam Newton has the
weird font thing. This is like the weird thing Rick
Flair does. I'm just gonna capitalize every first letter.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Of each word.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Please get in the game, Luca, is what he says.
Take a shot of corizone and deal with the pain.
They are paying you fifty million dollars a year and
you're not there.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
WTF.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
I hope Genie Buss trades you next year. Nobody wants
a lame duck on their team.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
Now.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Ouch, Luca has a hamstring injury.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
The doctors said that, you know he'd be out for
eight weeks or five weeks in so you know, I'm
no mathematician, but we're not there yet.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
And listen. As much as I love Rick Flair, who
doesn't love some Ric Flair?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Come on, whoa you gotta love Ric Flair. This is
the dumbest take I've heard. This is dumber than saying
Anne Hathaway is the most beautiful girl of twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
This is peaked them by Rick Flair. As much as
I love the guy, it's a horrible take. He's got
a hamstring issue.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
And I get the idea, like the macho meatthead, like
just you know, tape it up, just take a shot, and.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
There are some injuries. It just doesn't work like that.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
You're a high level basketball player. If your hamstring is
not good to go, you're not good to go.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I mean, that's it. Listen. I started off the show
talking about Joe Ellenbiid. I'm not the guy.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Who's like, oh oh, sympathy all across the board. The
players deserve the benefit of the doubt every single time.
I'm not like that. I told you at the beginning
of the show. Kevin Durant played one game in their
series against the Lakers. There were six games in the series.
He played one. He's got an ankle issue in a
(04:52):
knee issue, There's no way that Lebron only plays one
game in a series due to injury. He hasn't missed
a game in the playoffs in his NBA career. Same
exact injuries KD is dealing with. Lebron is not just
playing one game in a six game series would not happen.
There's a better chance he plays every freaking game, because
(05:13):
that's what Lebron does. Lebron plays through pain, he plays
through injuries. There are some injuries even Lebron can't play through.
There are some hamstring issues that nobody can play through.
You're you're gonna be so compromised, you're not even close
to the same player playing on the same level. So
I don't fault Lebron, fault Luca in this instance. And
(05:35):
the idea of listen, maybe there's a debate where it's like,
I realize he's not gonna be one hundred percent, but
just get out there, even if you're at seventy percent,
If you can just give the Lakers whatever you have
to give, that's valuable, We'll take that. Okay, I'll hear
(05:56):
that argument to a degree. But the idea of just
trade this guy, just I hope Genie Buss trades you
next year. Nobody wants a lame duck on their team.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
What are you talking?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
You're gonna trade Luca because he's got a hamstring injury
and he's not gutting it out against the defending champion
Oklahoma City Thunder. I got news for you, Rick Flair
and anybody else thinking the same thing. A compromised Luca
(06:30):
against the Thunder is not gonna get the Lakers a
series win.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
So we're gonna trade Luca.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
And miss out on what another decade of high level basketball,
great production. Who knows if they what they surround him
with over the next decade, maybe a title run, maybe
a title. It could happen over the next ten years.
However long Luca is with the Lakers, willing to trade
(07:01):
that away? Just get him out of here because he's
not playing through a hamstring injury when they're going up
against the Oklahoma City Thunder. You just want him to
get a cortizone shot and just deal with the pain
and do what you can do against the Thunder.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Do you think that's gonna work out? It's not at all.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
It's ridiculous. Now Here is the bad audio. Oh, I
love me some bad audio Luca Doncic explaining what the
doctors have told him and where he stands. Listen, you
might have to squint your eyes. Squint. You can listen
better if you squint. Here you go, here's Luca.
Speaker 6 (07:39):
I'm just doing everything I can, Like I said, every day,
I'm doing still I'm supposed to do, you know, obviously
covering now working by I said, doctor said eight weeks
at the beginning of the first time, right, so you
know we're just going to day by day and I
feel better every day.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Yeah, there go, so eight weeks and he's trying to
get through it, and you know we're not eight weeks in,
so we're not ready to go. So that might be
more of a yeah, it's kind of funny, right, because
I don't think anybody sensible would have the same take.
There might be some crazy fans out there that are
just like, yeah, right on, Rick Flair, you should get out.
(08:21):
There might be someone here or there that thinks that.
I don't think anybody in Bulk is thinking that. So
it's a bit of a what do you call it coop?
Like a straw man argument. It can't quite say it's
straw man because it's real Rick Flair.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
This is his real argument. It's just bad. It's bad.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
But the point is, I don't think many people think
the same thing, So it's just it's just a random
bad take floating in the breeze and that's it. So
I think you just move on from it. But the Lakers,
they got clobbered. The news just gets it goes from
bad to worse. I do love this where Marcus Smart
he said that suck is an understatement.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
This is a great, great, great phrase right there. I
love that. This is the back and forth before game one.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
So the Lakers got crushed in Game one, but listen
to what the reporter says and how Marcus Smart responds.
Speaker 7 (09:09):
Before the game, JJ said that, you guys, this was
a frazy you guys sucked in the four games you
guys played in the regular season against the Thunder.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
JJ has been nice.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
We were ash suck understanding, right.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Suck was an understatement. Yeah, they're so bad against the Thunder.
So now that the Lakers have lost Game one to
the Thunder, they've had five matchups this entire season, four
in the regular season, one in the playoffs. So now
after these five matchups for the Lakers, they have lost
to the OKC Thunder by an average of twenty seven
(09:44):
points per game. That's the average loss twenty seven points
per game. And oh, by the way, game one of
the playoffs, shay Gilgess Alexander Sga soon to be back
to back MVP.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Play very well at all.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
He had his season low with eighteen points, and he
committed a season high seven turnovers, season low in points,
season high in turnovers. Thunder still win by eighteen. It's like,
that's how ugly this whole thing is.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Man.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
So this idea of oh, you know, just dig a
cortozoon shout and get out there, Luca, And if you're
not willing to get out there, let's trade him.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Let's do that.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
It's like, don't play armchair GM Rick Flair, you know,
just yell woo and we'll love you for that.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
We don't love you for your NBA takes. You know,
it's just bad. It's bad.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Gotta make sense, Gonna make sense along the way. Lakers
sixteen turnovers. I'm sorry, No, there's an interesting The Thunder
had sixteen turnovers and still won by eighteen points.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
They weren't even sharp.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
They had an eight day layoff So the Thunder they
swept the Suns. They're off for eight days, and it
looked like that they're kind of sloppy rough rid on
the edge is still won by eighteen. This is a
joke of a series. Man, We're not gonna get anything
competitive in this series. The Thunder are just towering over
the Lakers in talent. The only really interesting thing in
this series is does this become a trend for the
(11:17):
degenerate gamblers out there? And I'm pounding my chest in solidarity.
I know you're out there. Do you keep fading Sga?
It's a dangerous game to play. But SGA only eighteen
points in game one, still high point totals.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
You know we're in the high twenties. You keep fading them?
Speaker 2 (11:37):
May you think SGA just responds and looks like his
normal studley self, But the Lakers, I think it's good
to just focus on SGA and if the role players
beat you, the role players beat you. But I would
do everything I could to limit SGA's effectiveness because he's
not just a scorer. He'll get other people involved. But
if you just blitz him, just do everything you can.
(12:00):
He's the head of the snake. You know, just try
to limit his effectiveness. And if random dudes like McCain
and lou Dort and you know, Caruso or hitting threes
and that's the way they beat.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
You, that's the way they beat you.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
But I would I'd much rather go down that way.
Then SGA is dropping forty four on you. You know that,
try to do everything you can to limit his effectiveness.
I think that's the right way to go about it.
So we'll see if they have sustained success just slowing
SGA down. But in terms of success in this series,
forget it, man, it is a wrap. Oh oh, I
(12:36):
do have one gambling story for you. You might like this,
Hopefully you don't think it's a waste of time. But
I wind about my bad beats. I have to give
you a ridiculous win, Like Coop, you've had some suck
out wins at the poker table, right, you had no
business winning a hand that you win. That's what happened
(12:57):
to me against the Lakers a couple of nights ago.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Coop.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
You bet on you bet basketball? I know you bet football.
You bet basketball at all?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Rarely? Rarely?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Yeah, just not as much? Huh sports wise? Is it
football solely or how do you get down? What's the
rolodex look like?
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Pretty much?
Speaker 8 (13:17):
I have done some basketball here and there, and that's
that's it. Never never baseball.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Yeah, Baseball's very difficult, man. Baseball is, especially on Sundays.
It is so unpredictable. It's kind of like the getaway
Day that's never named getaway Day.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
It's just so random on Sundays, man, Yeah, random.
Speaker 8 (13:38):
And then and then I don't. I don't bet on
sports that I don't watch. Okay, although my buddy was
today giving me the whole rundown on betting the horses.
He won four hundred and fifty bucks, like on the
Kentucky Derby or whatever.
Speaker 7 (13:51):
My gosh, I thought about you on Pony Day?
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Did you bet on the ponies?
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Who me?
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Oh oh no, yeah, yeah, I'm talking to me.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
They no, Like I'm a little bit like Coop, Like
if I don't.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I don't know what the hell I'm doing with the ponies.
So I don't. I don't bet them.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
I'm so shocked.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Well that says a lot right there. No, I listen.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I did radio in the Albany, New York area for
a couple of years, and so Sarahtoga is right there.
It's kind of like the unofficial fourth leg of the
Triple Crown. That's how a lot of people think of it.
And we do shows up there on Fridays, and so
when my show's done, I'm like.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Let's bet the ponies. Baby.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
It was just little bets because I don't know what
I'm doing at all. I learned very quickly. I'm like,
I don't know anything about anything. So no, I didn't
have any Kentucky Derby bets at all, but my my
basketball bet it was I had the thunder to cover
three and a half points in the third quarter. Okay,
(14:58):
game one thunder against the Laker, and Okasee played this
sloppy first half. They're up by eight points at halftime,
and I'm like, all right, I think Okac is gonna
wake up. And they worked a little bit of the
rust off. They're gonna smack them around pretty good in
the third quarter. So they had to win the third
quarter by at least four points. It's tied at like
(15:20):
the very end of the third quarter. Okac has the
ball with like twenty seconds left, and they could just
hold the ball for a final shot. I think almost.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Drawing dead at this point.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
You know, the most I can hope for is that
the thunder go a little bit too fast. They just,
for whatever reason, they don't dribble the clock out and
take a last second shot. They just they go fast
and they score a bucket and then things get weird
from there. They force a turnover, the Lakers commit an
offensive foul. Somehow, Okac gets the ball again and they
(15:58):
score again, Like your chances are slim to none. Again,
like both teams have scored I think the same amount
of points. Whether it was eighteen or nineteen points, I
can't remember, but they've scored the same amount of points. Okay,
see has the ball with twenty seconds left. I don't
even know who did it, but like eleven seconds left,
one of their role players shoots a three in the corner.
(16:20):
He makes it, and my guy maccus Smott, right, the
guy that was like, we asked, yeah, that's right, my
guy maccus Smott, he commits a foul, four point play.
The guy hits the free throw. I was so shocked
by it. I don't even remember who it was. I'm like,
oh my gosh, he hits the free throw. And then
(16:41):
Austin Reeves misses a three with like five seconds to
go in the quarter. Okay, see covers the three and
a half point.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Third quarter spread.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
It was the most ridiculous win I've ever had, four
point play when they could have just dribbled the clock
out and taken the last second shot.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
That's amazing right there.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
So every now and then, as many bad beats as
I've had over the years, I deserve a ridiculous win
along the way.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Any degenerate gambler will tell you the same thing. So, well,
you have a gambling problem, that's right.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
But I had a gambling win. I had a non
problem with that four point play. Can I can't imagine
someone who had Lakers plus three and a half in
the same situation. Oh gosh, I apologize for that whole story.
If you ever had that that Oh, that's that's as
bad as a bad beat gets right there. If you're
on the other side, all right, feel free to check
(17:34):
In eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, We gotta
get to the the guy that always gives you flowers,
you know, figuratively, Lorena would oh, he's gone.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Oh he probably went to bed.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
I probably blew that one for you, Lorena. I'm sorry
about that. Sorry, apologize for that one. I'll make it
up to you somehow, Someway. Not sure how, but I will.
Coming up, we got to talk some ball, but a
lack of ball on this show. Here the NFL quarterback
that reminds me of the old MTV show Pimp My Ride.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
That show is a great show.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
I love that show.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
It was great. Remember Mike with electronics.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Yes, Actually, West Coast Customs is right up the street
here too.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Mike was amazing.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
That show was They're just like, we're gonna put a
hot tub. Yeah, we're gonna put a strip stripper pole.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
In the back seat.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
It was like, there's how are you gonna do? They
would do it. It's an awesome show. Mike's like, this
is gonna be the best sound system you've ever heard
in your life. We're gonna put that in there. Yeah,
but there's an there's a quarterback that reminds me of
that show. I'll show that with you coming up. I'm

Speaker 4 (20:15):
No, I have been.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
It's just too fast.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Didn't you promise me you would have?
Speaker 3 (20:19):
I said, in like seven days?
Speaker 1 (20:22):
How long has it been?
Speaker 3 (20:23):
A month?
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Seven days times four? Yeah, it's a hard song.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Okay. I want to see you do it.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Listen. It's very hard. It's a tough song to sing.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
Man.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
The verses are difficult.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
They're so fast.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
By the way, have you seen have you guys, especially
you Coop? Have you seen Black Rabbit?
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Yes? Because Ray is that how you pronounce her name?
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (20:49):
By the way, much hotter than Anne Hathaway. She's pretty
to say that she's hot. She's a good looking girl.
She has a small part in Black.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Coop does not agree. Coop does not does not agree.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Are you kidding me right now? Coop?
Speaker 3 (21:06):
No, she's ethnic.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Okay, I just I prefer in Hathaway.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Oh gosh, it's like the sir mix a lot song,
you know, straight up, straight down.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
That's that's what we're working with over I only know
big butts. That's what I'm talking about. It's that song.
I'll probably be mixing it up. What is it.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I don't know, it's another song I'm mixing it up with.
He's like, straight up, straight down, no frills, no thrills.
I can't remember what song that is, but anyway, it's
a different one. It's not maybe got back. I'm sorry
I failed you. I have a read. For over forty years,
tire reck has been helping customers find the right tires
for how, what and where they drive. Ship fast and
free back by free Road has protection with convenient installation
(21:50):
options like mobile tire installation, tire rec dot Com. The
way tire buying should be all right, So let me
pay this off the NFL quarterback who reminds me of
an old MTV show. Remember the old show Pimped My Ride.
Someone would go into this car place with this dilapidated
(22:11):
car and it's in horrible condition, and then the crew
they're like, oh, we're gonna do all this great stuff
and make your car look great again. And the guy's like,
all right, cool, yes, sign me up. Sounds good, And
they really did. They did an awesome job time and
time again. It was a fun show. But it reminds
(22:31):
me of Kyler Murray. Okay, so the new Minnesota Vikings
quarterback Randy Moss, former great NFL wide receiver, obviously started
his career with the Vikings. He said, I'm excited because
Kyler Murray has quote something to prove, which he absolutely does,
completely agree that Kyler Murray has a lot to prove.
(22:54):
But there's so much optimism when it comes to Kyler Murray.
And I'm like, I don't get why. It's almost like
universal optimism. And I'm not trying to rain on the parade,
but I think he gotta just pause for a second
and consider. Maybe Kyler Murray isn't exactly he's set to
(23:16):
kill it with the Vikings. Maybe maybe that's the possibility
we're looking at here, because I haven't heard much of that.
It's just, oh, Kyler Murray with Justin Jefferson in a
real offense and KOC we got Kevin O'Connell over there,
and oh Man getting away from the Arizona Cardinals. And
it's like it reminds me of pimp my ride, because
(23:37):
all this offseason has been is like take your pick.
It's either pimp my resume, pimp my potential. It's just
like that's what it is with Kyler Murray. All of
a sudden, Kyler Murray became good in one NFL off season.
He hasn't been good in seven years. He's been good
like one off season, like pimped everything. It's just like
(23:58):
that old show. It's like he took his dilapidated car
slash NFL resume and he just went to the body
shop and they're like, oh, bells and whistles, we'll give
you Justin Jefferson. Well, you know, we'll give you Kevin
O'Connell boom. All of a sudden, it looks much better now.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
It's like if you look at Kyler Murray.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
So just a couple of things to keep in mind.
Kyler Murray the most touchdown passes he's thrown in a
single season.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Take a guess. You got a number in mind? Okay,
you got it, lock it in m you got a number.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
I'm gonna go with twenty four.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
It's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Guess, Coop, you want to guess here? How many touchdown
passes peak Kyler Murray in seven years? What's the most
he's throng?
Speaker 8 (24:46):
Actually, like I'm just I'm still stunned at how like
Ann Hathaway, No, no, at Lorena's guess being like an actual,
like feasible.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Yeah, that's that's wow.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Thanks.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
Yeah right, I was gonna say twenty, but I think
it might think it ends to actually more than that.
But go ahead, go ahead and let us know.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
It's twenty six. Okay, prize to Lorraine.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Now I am so close.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Yeah, you're right there.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
So like we'll just go in highest to lowest right
for Kyler Murray per season touchdown throws twenty six, twenty four,
twenty one, twenty fourteen, ten six.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Right now, injuries have come into.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Play, which is also the point, you know, you just
discount injuries. It's been a big part of the formula
with Kyler Murray. All of a sudden, it's like injuries
don't are the possibility with the Vikings. It's like he's
got Justin Jefferson, All is great, he's fine. Now it's
like this dude is passer rating for his career.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Should we do? This is a guessing game. This this
is way more challenge.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Like we would say one hundred is is really good?
You get into triple figures. Now you're you're talking really
really good. So if you have that as a barometer, right,
where do you think Kyler Murray has been for his career.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
You want to take a guess, Loraina.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Now I'm Alex Trebek, I have I'm the answers are
right in front of me. I don't even know what
I would guess if you just threw that question my way.
So don't feel bad either way. But what you guess
is Kyler Murray's career passer rating. That might be my
sports green, but I told you one hundred is like
really really good.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Okay, So if Kyler Murray isn't killing it with you
killing it, let's go.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Let's go fifty seven.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Okay, Coop, There's no way it's that bad. It's not
that bad.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
I'm gonna go.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
Eighty. Okay, Coop wins this one. Lorena, I'm sorry, but ninety.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Two point two okay, that's that's been his career passer rating.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Now, this is what I've a lot better than I
thought it would. That's octally bad. That's way higher.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Yeah, I guess, But it's all how you look at it.
So if you look at the NFL, now, this is
what I like to do. So what he's given you
for seven years. If you just look at quarterback ratings
last season passer rating, we're not talking QBR. The ESPN
stat passer rating, Okay, c J. Stroud last season, right
didn't kill it, wasn't crushing it. Last season c J.
(27:26):
Stroud was at ninety two point nine. That's higher, and
Kyler Murray's at ninety two point two for his career.
You know who's just lower just last season only is
Daisy Fresh Giants rookie Jackson Dart. He was at ninety
one point seven. So Kyler Murray is in between last
(27:47):
season c J. Stroud and Jackson Dart. That's what he's
given you for seven years. That's the type of production
he's given you for seven years. That is not good
enough for a former number one overall draft pick. And
I'm supposed to believe just because he's in purple, all
is great. Now he got something to prove, and he's
(28:10):
got one of the best receivers in the game, and
what he's just gonna unleash.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Hell, I don't buy it. I don't buy it.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I'm not rooting against him. I think that he's got
a lot of talent, He's got potential. It just hasn't
been realized and like everything has just been wiped away.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Remember how we were clowning.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Kyler Murray when he signed his contract in the Arizona
Cardinals put a stipulation in his contract because he's on.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
The sticks, he's playing video games.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
They're like, yeah, we need you to study and I
don't know, like be an adult, can you do that?
They put a stipulation in his contract. I'm paraphrasing, but
that's what it boiled down to. It's like all of
that doesn't even exist anymore.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
He's with the Viking. All is great. I just I
don't by I gotta see it to believe it.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Like, we've got multiple hurdles to jump over for Kyler
Murray to realize his potential. One, he's got to stay healthy.
That that's a big hurdle for him to jump over. Two,
he's got to be very productive. With the supporting cast
that he has and the head coach that he.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Has, he should be very.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
Productive, like to make good on this deal and the
way he's being talked about.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Man, Like any pay attention.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Just going forward, whether you're listening to me, you're listening
to whatever show on Fox Sports Radio, you're listening to
anything anywhere. It's TV, it's whatever, it's first take, it's
you know, first things first, and whatever show you're listening,
just pay attention whenever they talk about Kyler Murray and
(29:58):
I'll tell you ninety ninety nine percent of the time,
it's gonna be something positive. It's like, oh, he's got
a lot of talent to work with. Now, he got
a lot of potential. Man, this guy's one of the
most talented quarterbacks.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
I know, I know. Put the resume on this side,
one of the most talented quarterback. Bad but bad but bad.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
But this guy has maxed out at twenty six touchdown
passes in a single season.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
Twenty six, Like, that's nothing to write home about.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
You can't have a passer rating for seven years that
would slot in between the production last season of c. J.
Stroud and Jackson Dart. That's just not good enough. It isn't.
And let's not act like he's had nothing to work with.
I know he's with the Arizona Cardinals, but Trey McBride
is one of the best tight ends in football, right, Like,
(30:46):
it's not like he's had nothing and the cupboard is
completely and utterly bare, nothing to work with.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
That's not the case. Now.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Obviously, the Vikings offensively much better situation, much more talent.
So we'll see, we'll see if he can make good.
And all of a sudden, the production goes north and
he makes you know, he makes great strides going forward.
But I got to see it to believe it. And
I'll tell you what, man, I haven't seen this before.
I have not seen one off season completely revamp how.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
We think of a quarterback.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
We're just clowning him for not being dedicated enough and
you know, playing video games when he's when he's in Arizona,
and that's all been forgotten. It's all been wiped away,
just totally washed away. Oh this guy, I'm expecting big things.
Kyler Murray. You watch Kyler. He's got something to prove.
Kyler Murray, He's gonna be he gonna be really really good.
(31:42):
Where does he rank in the hierarchy of NFC North quarterback?
So well, he's one of the top ones.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
It's like, what what are we are we talking.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
About right now? He's dead last is what he is.
He's dead last. I hope you realize that he's not
better than Jared Goff. He's not better than Jordon Love.
You're not better than Caleb Williams. He is dead last
in his division. Let's not make stuff up now. Listen,
if all of a sudden is healthy productive winning games
(32:13):
like this is all subject to change, but as of
right now, he is dead last. Make no mistake about it.
All right, let me get out to the phones. Tony
is in Seattle. Wants to check in. Tony, You're on
Fox Sports Radio. What's going on, Bud? How you doing?
Speaker 4 (32:28):
Brian?
Speaker 5 (32:28):
My friend? I love you man, you are a great
host and everything else, but that half the way and
the Lively, oh god, not the way she's an OFFTI winner.
What is Blake Lively? She's beautiful, I'll give you that,
but halfway she's come up. It's like they most have
(32:49):
great careers. But if you're talking beautiful, if you're talking
half away, you gotta go with halfway. I love you, man,
kill me here. I love that you're de genuine gamblers.
I love that, and I love your souls with New
and swart Sea and everything. But some take was like halfway,
(33:11):
I gotta go with. I gotta go with my boy too.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
I just think and thank you, Tony, and I'm not
cutting you off right now.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Thank you for the props. That's awesome of you.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
But I thought you were Oh man, sorry, Coop, Yeah,
I let you astray.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Yeah, my bad, But I think I've just ruined Everybody's
The only reason I said Blake Blake Blake Lively is
because one, she is hotter, no mistake, no doubt about it.
And she's absolutely hotter, more attractive. But it's just because
it's the first picture that popped up. That's the only
reason I mentioned Blake Lively. I think that's distracted everybody
(33:52):
from the main point. It doesn't it doesn't have to
be just Anne Hathaway versus Blake Lively. You just because
you're losing that one, No, no, no, no no, if
you're just joining us. Coop told me that People magazine
named Anne Hathaway the most beautiful woman of twenty twenty six. Right,
that's the official most beautiful woman of twenty twenty six.
(34:14):
And I'm like, you gotta be kidding me, man, Like
she's beautiful. Don't get me wrong, she's beautiful, she's talented,
all that good stuff. She's not the most beautiful of
twenty twenty six. Like, let's let's be realistic over here.
I've got a couple of examples. You seem to be
a Shakira fan, right, Lorena played some Skira earlier.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
Rakira.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
You like the beach example, right, If Shakira is walking
along the beach and Anne Hathaway is walking along the beach, who.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
Are you looking at?
Speaker 3 (34:45):
See?
Speaker 7 (34:46):
And I love this, I love this idea that you
did here. But then that also brings us back to
just physical beauty, and this award that Anne Hathaway won
is more than just her physical appearance, which is all
the ways top notch, by the way, with minimal work done.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
I'm gonna say better.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Than Shakira, better than Shakira.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
But for this year, Yeah, what has Shakira done this year?
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Year most beautiful, But in terms.
Speaker 7 (35:11):
Of being out in the public eye and doing things like,
anne Hathaway takes the cake.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
But that's the thing is.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
Then don't tell me she's the most beautiful woman of
twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Tell me something else.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Tell me she's the most beautiful and talented and accomplished
or something I don't know, right, like change the description,
like she's accomplished a lot in twenty twenty You're gonna have.
Speaker 7 (35:32):
To look at who the most like the best man
was the most handsome man.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
I'll look that up coming up right, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
You know what's funny is you would never be able
to tell by this show. But I'll tell you a
very brief story. So I was doing a radio show
in Portland. I was there for about three years. And
what was cool about that show was one it was televised.
They just televised it the radio show. So we had
a lot of fun with that. And then there was
(36:01):
a comedy club and so we had all these comedians
come into the studio and do these interviews and some
of these dudes are just hilarious guys and girls. They
were amazing. And I can't remember which comedian was there
at the time, but he was talking about I don't
know who it was.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
It was.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
We stumbled onto like talking about hot women. Shockingly right,
the sports radio host and a comedian. We're talking hot chicks.
And I can't remember who he was talking about, but
I was like, you know, she's stunning, don't get me wrong,
but I gotta I gotta be able to talk to
a girl.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
You know, I like, you might.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Show me a beautiful girl, but that's all She is
is looks.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
I gotta talk to her.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
See if she's funny, see if she's smart, she's got
some charisma. There are girls that are beautiful and that's
all they bring to the table, and all of a
sudden they're not as pretty. And there are girls that
are pretty cute but they're just awesome, and all of
a sudden they're way more attractive.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
And I was like, you know what I'm saying, and
the guy.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Was like, no, I don't know any any of what
you're talking about, but it's just funny. So that that
really is me. But you's got to change the description,
that's all. If we're just talking beautiful, like beautiful, maybe
I'm being too literal. It can mean way more than
just physical appearance, and that's clearly what this award is about.
(37:23):
But mah gosh, if you just whittle it down to
just beauty, just like looks, we're just looking at looks.
Bro not No, not the crowning achievement of twenty twenty six.
I hope no one shares this podcast with her. That
would be unfortunate. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox
is your Number. Some of the militia wants to check
in appreciate what Tony was saying.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
That was fun. Oh I'll give you a quick blurb here.
There is.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
There is zero doubt something will absolutely happen this fl season,
and based on the conversations.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
It's like, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
If I'll tell you this is absolutely going to happen.
I'll show that with you next. I'm Brian no In

Speaker 8 (39:04):
And hathaway from not not every conversation during the break
needs to make it on air.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
The first part of this is the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
Okay, they're saying that Patrick Mahomes is quote way ahead
of schedule after tearing his ACL. He tore his ACL
in December. Chiefs also say that he is quote in
a good position end quote to participate in OTA's later
this month, and he could potentially potentially return by week one.
(39:43):
Let me just spoiler alert right now, because I've heard
shows here and there, you know, flipping around TV radio
where it's like, is Patrick Mahomes gonna be ready for
week one?
Speaker 1 (39:55):
Are we sure?
Speaker 2 (39:56):
It's It's been a question that's been asked, right like,
is he gonna be ready.
Speaker 1 (40:01):
For a week one? He's going to play week one?
Speaker 2 (40:06):
Garn freaking' teed, He'll be out there playing in week one,
Like this shouldn't even be a question. This guy is
a competitive maniac. I love Mahomes.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
Mahomes is not a guy that's like, hey, you know what,
I'm ramping up.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
I'm kind of getting there, Like this dude will rehab
his balls off. He'll absolutely be out there week one guaranteed.
That's one of the other things. The schedule starts to
get revealed on Tuesday. So normally they'll just say the
first game of the year. The Seahawks do play the
Chiefs and so that that could be the first game
(40:45):
of the season. And it's like, what is is Mahomes
gonna be healthy? Yes, he will be healthy. He'll be
out there in Week one. I get to Koop's horrible
argument coming up next
Well hello Meler militia. Hope things are well. I'll tell
you what.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It was the year anniversary of my stroke on Sinco
to Mayo. Much better, much better this year, but yeah,
just out of nowhere, had a stroke and that was
not good.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Happy stroke aversary, Brian.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Thank you, thank you. Much better.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
This year is out of the blue. I've had good
health my whole life. He's just out of the blue.
And they still don't know what was up. They're like, yeah,
we don't really know, but they've done tests and they're like, yay,
pretty much.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Good to go.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
See you seem so healthy to me.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I am, that's the crazy thing. I'm totally fine.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
But yeah, last Sinkle to Mayo not so fine. But
that was a big speed bump. But everything was fine,
no long term effects.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Good to go.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
So very happy about that, very thankful for that. But yeah,
it was wild last year, man, just crazy. So glad
the year is coming gone and you know, things are
good healthwise. So very happy about that. And some of
the militia hit me up as far as that went.
So appreciate that. I had a post about it the
other day, and so I appreciate the militia being nice.
(01:12):
Militia's been very, very nice to me over the years,
So I absolutely appreciate.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
That fill in.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
What's that filling of the year.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Oh, that's it's just simpathy vote right there, Loren. And
you can't read into that too much, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
It's just like, you know, people love you.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
No Jonas on the ballot, no Moncey, you know what
I mean. It's kind of like the Anne Hathaway thing,
you know, like Jonas is walking by the militias, like,
WHOA look at that guy? If Monzi's walking by the militias,
like whoa look at Manzy?
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Wowow.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
If I'm walking by, they're just like yeah. But if
I'm alone, they're like, well there's nothing else to look at,
and then I get some votes. That's that's what happens
with that, right, And it's the way it went down.
But that's just me, okay. So I got to get
to a couple of things here. One I'm very looking
forward to. I love when we get the cut sheet
(02:09):
and it says in capital letters bad audio. I'm like,
we're zeroing in on that. That's exactly where I want
to go. So WWE Legend, WWE Royalty, Rick Flair hear
about this. He has called out Luka Doncic called him out. Now,
(02:30):
very interesting, Rick Flair. He sent out a tweet and
it's not just the content and what he's saying here,
which obviously matters the most when I take away very interesting.
He capitalizes every first letter of every word. That's how
Rick Flair gets down with tweeting. Right, so you put
(02:51):
Luka Doncic, please get in the game again. Every first
letter of each word is capitalized.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Very odd.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
It's his own thing. You know, Cam Newton has the
weird font thing. This is like the weird thing Rick
Flair does. I'm just gonna capitalize every first letter.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Of each word.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Please get in the game, Luca, is what he says.
Take a shot of corizone and deal with the pain.
They are paying you fifty million dollars a year and
you're not there.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
WTF.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
I hope Genie Buss trades you next year. Nobody wants
a lame duck on their team.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
Now.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Ouch, Luca has a hamstring injury.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
The doctors said that, you know he'd be out for
eight weeks or five weeks in so you know, I'm
no mathematician, but we're not there yet.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
And listen. As much as I love Rick Flair, who
doesn't love some Ric Flair?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Come on, whoa you gotta love Ric Flair. This is
the dumbest take I've heard. This is dumber than saying
Anne Hathaway is the most beautiful girl of twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
This is peaked them by Rick Flair. As much as
I love the guy, it's a horrible take. He's got
a hamstring issue.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
And I get the idea, like the macho meatthead, like
just you know, tape it up, just take a shot, and.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
There are some injuries. It just doesn't work like that.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
You're a high level basketball player. If your hamstring is
not good to go, you're not good to go.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I mean, that's it. Listen. I started off the show
talking about Joe Ellenbiid. I'm not the guy.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Who's like, oh oh, sympathy all across the board. The
players deserve the benefit of the doubt every single time.
I'm not like that. I told you at the beginning
of the show. Kevin Durant played one game in their
series against the Lakers. There were six games in the series.
He played one. He's got an ankle issue in a
(04:52):
knee issue, There's no way that Lebron only plays one
game in a series due to injury. He hasn't missed
a game in the playoffs in his NBA career. Same
exact injuries KD is dealing with. Lebron is not just
playing one game in a six game series would not happen.
There's a better chance he plays every freaking game, because
(05:13):
that's what Lebron does. Lebron plays through pain, he plays
through injuries. There are some injuries even Lebron can't play through.
There are some hamstring issues that nobody can play through.
You're you're gonna be so compromised, you're not even close
to the same player playing on the same level. So
I don't fault Lebron, fault Luca in this instance. And
(05:35):
the idea of listen, maybe there's a debate where it's like,
I realize he's not gonna be one hundred percent, but
just get out there, even if you're at seventy percent,
If you can just give the Lakers whatever you have
to give, that's valuable, We'll take that. Okay, I'll hear
(05:56):
that argument to a degree. But the idea of just
trade this guy, just I hope Genie Buss trades you
next year. Nobody wants a lame duck on their team.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
What are you talking?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
You're gonna trade Luca because he's got a hamstring injury
and he's not gutting it out against the defending champion
Oklahoma City Thunder. I got news for you, Rick Flair
and anybody else thinking the same thing. A compromised Luca
(06:30):
against the Thunder is not gonna get the Lakers a
series win.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
So we're gonna trade Luca.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
And miss out on what another decade of high level basketball,
great production. Who knows if they what they surround him
with over the next decade, maybe a title run, maybe
a title. It could happen over the next ten years.
However long Luca is with the Lakers, willing to trade
(07:01):
that away? Just get him out of here because he's
not playing through a hamstring injury when they're going up
against the Oklahoma City Thunder. You just want him to
get a cortizone shot and just deal with the pain
and do what you can do against the Thunder.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Do you think that's gonna work out? It's not at all.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
It's ridiculous. Now Here is the bad audio. Oh, I
love me some bad audio Luca Doncic explaining what the
doctors have told him and where he stands. Listen, you
might have to squint your eyes. Squint. You can listen
better if you squint. Here you go, here's Luca.
Speaker 6 (07:39):
I'm just doing everything I can, Like I said, every day,
I'm doing still I'm supposed to do, you know, obviously
covering now working by I said, doctor said eight weeks
at the beginning of the first time, right, so you
know we're just going to day by day and I
feel better every day.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Yeah, there go, so eight weeks and he's trying to
get through it, and you know we're not eight weeks in,
so we're not ready to go. So that might be
more of a yeah, it's kind of funny, right, because
I don't think anybody sensible would have the same take.
There might be some crazy fans out there that are
just like, yeah, right on, Rick Flair, you should get out.
(08:21):
There might be someone here or there that thinks that.
I don't think anybody in Bulk is thinking that. So
it's a bit of a what do you call it coop?
Like a straw man argument. It can't quite say it's
straw man because it's real Rick Flair.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
This is his real argument. It's just bad. It's bad.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
But the point is, I don't think many people think
the same thing, So it's just it's just a random
bad take floating in the breeze and that's it. So
I think you just move on from it. But the Lakers,
they got clobbered. The news just gets it goes from
bad to worse. I do love this where Marcus Smart
he said that suck is an understatement.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
This is a great, great, great phrase right there. I
love that. This is the back and forth before game one.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
So the Lakers got crushed in Game one, but listen
to what the reporter says and how Marcus Smart responds.
Speaker 7 (09:09):
Before the game, JJ said that, you guys, this was
a frazy you guys sucked in the four games you
guys played in the regular season against the Thunder.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
JJ has been nice.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
We were ash suck understanding, right.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Suck was an understatement. Yeah, they're so bad against the Thunder.
So now that the Lakers have lost Game one to
the Thunder, they've had five matchups this entire season, four
in the regular season, one in the playoffs. So now
after these five matchups for the Lakers, they have lost
to the OKC Thunder by an average of twenty seven
(09:44):
points per game. That's the average loss twenty seven points
per game. And oh, by the way, game one of
the playoffs, shay Gilgess Alexander Sga soon to be back
to back MVP.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Play very well at all.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
He had his season low with eighteen points, and he
committed a season high seven turnovers, season low in points,
season high in turnovers. Thunder still win by eighteen. It's like,
that's how ugly this whole thing is.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Man.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
So this idea of oh, you know, just dig a
cortozoon shout and get out there, Luca, And if you're
not willing to get out there, let's trade him.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Let's do that.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
It's like, don't play armchair GM Rick Flair, you know,
just yell woo and we'll love you for that.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
We don't love you for your NBA takes. You know,
it's just bad. It's bad.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Gotta make sense, Gonna make sense along the way. Lakers
sixteen turnovers. I'm sorry, No, there's an interesting The Thunder
had sixteen turnovers and still won by eighteen points.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
They weren't even sharp.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
They had an eight day layoff So the Thunder they
swept the Suns. They're off for eight days, and it
looked like that they're kind of sloppy rough rid on
the edge is still won by eighteen. This is a
joke of a series. Man, We're not gonna get anything
competitive in this series. The Thunder are just towering over
the Lakers in talent. The only really interesting thing in
this series is does this become a trend for the
(11:17):
degenerate gamblers out there? And I'm pounding my chest in solidarity.
I know you're out there. Do you keep fading Sga?
It's a dangerous game to play. But SGA only eighteen
points in game one, still high point totals.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
You know we're in the high twenties. You keep fading them?
Speaker 2 (11:37):
May you think SGA just responds and looks like his
normal studley self, But the Lakers, I think it's good
to just focus on SGA and if the role players
beat you, the role players beat you. But I would
do everything I could to limit SGA's effectiveness because he's
not just a scorer. He'll get other people involved. But
if you just blitz him, just do everything you can.
(12:00):
He's the head of the snake. You know, just try
to limit his effectiveness. And if random dudes like McCain
and lou Dort and you know, Caruso or hitting threes
and that's the way they beat.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
You, that's the way they beat you.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
But I would I'd much rather go down that way.
Then SGA is dropping forty four on you. You know that,
try to do everything you can to limit his effectiveness.
I think that's the right way to go about it.
So we'll see if they have sustained success just slowing
SGA down. But in terms of success in this series,
forget it, man, it is a wrap. Oh oh, I
(12:36):
do have one gambling story for you. You might like this,
Hopefully you don't think it's a waste of time. But
I wind about my bad beats. I have to give
you a ridiculous win, Like Coop, you've had some suck
out wins at the poker table, right, you had no
business winning a hand that you win. That's what happened
(12:57):
to me against the Lakers a couple of nights ago.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Coop.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
You bet on you bet basketball? I know you bet football.
You bet basketball at all?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Rarely? Rarely?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Yeah, just not as much? Huh sports wise? Is it
football solely or how do you get down? What's the
rolodex look like?
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Pretty much?
Speaker 8 (13:17):
I have done some basketball here and there, and that's
that's it. Never never baseball.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Yeah, Baseball's very difficult, man. Baseball is, especially on Sundays.
It is so unpredictable. It's kind of like the getaway
Day that's never named getaway Day.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
It's just so random on Sundays, man, Yeah, random.
Speaker 8 (13:38):
And then and then I don't. I don't bet on
sports that I don't watch. Okay, although my buddy was
today giving me the whole rundown on betting the horses.
He won four hundred and fifty bucks, like on the
Kentucky Derby or whatever.
Speaker 7 (13:51):
My gosh, I thought about you on Pony Day?
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Did you bet on the ponies?
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Who me?
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Oh oh no, yeah, yeah, I'm talking to me.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
They no, Like I'm a little bit like Coop, Like
if I don't.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I don't know what the hell I'm doing with the ponies.
So I don't. I don't bet them.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
I'm so shocked.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Well that says a lot right there. No, I listen.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I did radio in the Albany, New York area for
a couple of years, and so Sarahtoga is right there.
It's kind of like the unofficial fourth leg of the
Triple Crown. That's how a lot of people think of it.
And we do shows up there on Fridays, and so
when my show's done, I'm like.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Let's bet the ponies. Baby.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
It was just little bets because I don't know what
I'm doing at all. I learned very quickly. I'm like,
I don't know anything about anything. So no, I didn't
have any Kentucky Derby bets at all, but my my
basketball bet it was I had the thunder to cover
three and a half points in the third quarter. Okay,
(14:58):
game one thunder against the Laker, and Okasee played this
sloppy first half. They're up by eight points at halftime,
and I'm like, all right, I think Okac is gonna
wake up. And they worked a little bit of the
rust off. They're gonna smack them around pretty good in
the third quarter. So they had to win the third
quarter by at least four points. It's tied at like
(15:20):
the very end of the third quarter. Okac has the
ball with like twenty seconds left, and they could just
hold the ball for a final shot. I think almost.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Drawing dead at this point.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
You know, the most I can hope for is that
the thunder go a little bit too fast. They just,
for whatever reason, they don't dribble the clock out and
take a last second shot. They just they go fast
and they score a bucket and then things get weird
from there. They force a turnover, the Lakers commit an
offensive foul. Somehow, Okac gets the ball again and they
(15:58):
score again, Like your chances are slim to none. Again,
like both teams have scored I think the same amount
of points. Whether it was eighteen or nineteen points, I
can't remember, but they've scored the same amount of points. Okay,
see has the ball with twenty seconds left. I don't
even know who did it, but like eleven seconds left,
one of their role players shoots a three in the corner.
(16:20):
He makes it, and my guy maccus Smott, right, the
guy that was like, we asked, yeah, that's right, my
guy maccus Smott, he commits a foul, four point play.
The guy hits the free throw. I was so shocked
by it. I don't even remember who it was. I'm like,
oh my gosh, he hits the free throw. And then
(16:41):
Austin Reeves misses a three with like five seconds to
go in the quarter. Okay, see covers the three and
a half point.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Third quarter spread.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
It was the most ridiculous win I've ever had, four
point play when they could have just dribbled the clock
out and taken the last second shot.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
That's amazing right there.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
So every now and then, as many bad beats as
I've had over the years, I deserve a ridiculous win
along the way.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Any degenerate gambler will tell you the same thing. So, well,
you have a gambling problem, that's right.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
But I had a gambling win. I had a non
problem with that four point play. Can I can't imagine
someone who had Lakers plus three and a half in
the same situation. Oh gosh, I apologize for that whole story.
If you ever had that that Oh, that's that's as
bad as a bad beat gets right there. If you're
on the other side, all right, feel free to check
(17:34):
In eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, We gotta
get to the the guy that always gives you flowers,
you know, figuratively, Lorena would oh, he's gone.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Oh he probably went to bed.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
I probably blew that one for you, Lorena. I'm sorry
about that. Sorry, apologize for that one. I'll make it
up to you somehow, Someway. Not sure how, but I will.
Coming up, we got to talk some ball, but a
lack of ball on this show. Here the NFL quarterback
that reminds me of the old MTV show Pimp My Ride.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
That show is a great show.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
I love that show.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
It was great. Remember Mike with electronics.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Yes, Actually, West Coast Customs is right up the street
here too.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Mike was amazing.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
That show was They're just like, we're gonna put a
hot tub. Yeah, we're gonna put a strip stripper pole.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
In the back seat.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
It was like, there's how are you gonna do? They
would do it. It's an awesome show. Mike's like, this
is gonna be the best sound system you've ever heard
in your life. We're gonna put that in there. Yeah,
but there's an there's a quarterback that reminds me of
that show. I'll show that with you coming up. I'm

Speaker 1 (20:07):
Here, go for it.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Oh no, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
I can't. There's no way you have been studying.
Speaker 4 (20:15):
No, I have been.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
It's just too fast.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Didn't you promise me you would have?
Speaker 3 (20:19):
I said, in like seven days?
Speaker 1 (20:22):
How long has it been?
Speaker 3 (20:23):
A month?
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Seven days times four? Yeah, it's a hard song.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Okay. I want to see you do it.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Listen. It's very hard. It's a tough song to sing.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
Man.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
The verses are difficult.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
They're so fast.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
By the way, have you seen have you guys, especially
you Coop? Have you seen Black Rabbit?
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Yes? Because Ray is that how you pronounce her name?
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (20:49):
By the way, much hotter than Anne Hathaway. She's pretty
to say that she's hot. She's a good looking girl.
She has a small part in Black.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Coop does not agree. Coop does not does not agree.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Are you kidding me right now? Coop?
Speaker 3 (21:06):
No, she's ethnic.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Okay, I just I prefer in Hathaway.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Oh gosh, it's like the sir mix a lot song,
you know, straight up, straight down.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
That's that's what we're working with over I only know
big butts. That's what I'm talking about. It's that song.
I'll probably be mixing it up. What is it.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I don't know, it's another song I'm mixing it up with.
He's like, straight up, straight down, no frills, no thrills.
I can't remember what song that is, but anyway, it's
a different one. It's not maybe got back. I'm sorry
I failed you. I have a read. For over forty years,
tire reck has been helping customers find the right tires
for how, what and where they drive. Ship fast and
free back by free Road has protection with convenient installation
(21:50):
options like mobile tire installation, tire rec dot Com. The
way tire buying should be all right, So let me
pay this off the NFL quarterback who reminds me of
an old MTV show. Remember the old show Pimped My Ride.
Someone would go into this car place with this dilapidated
(22:11):
car and it's in horrible condition, and then the crew
they're like, oh, we're gonna do all this great stuff
and make your car look great again. And the guy's like,
all right, cool, yes, sign me up. Sounds good, And
they really did. They did an awesome job time and
time again. It was a fun show. But it reminds
(22:31):
me of Kyler Murray. Okay, so the new Minnesota Vikings
quarterback Randy Moss, former great NFL wide receiver, obviously started
his career with the Vikings. He said, I'm excited because
Kyler Murray has quote something to prove, which he absolutely does,
completely agree that Kyler Murray has a lot to prove.
(22:54):
But there's so much optimism when it comes to Kyler Murray.
And I'm like, I don't get why. It's almost like
universal optimism. And I'm not trying to rain on the parade,
but I think he gotta just pause for a second
and consider. Maybe Kyler Murray isn't exactly he's set to
(23:16):
kill it with the Vikings. Maybe maybe that's the possibility
we're looking at here, because I haven't heard much of that.
It's just, oh, Kyler Murray with Justin Jefferson in a
real offense and KOC we got Kevin O'Connell over there,
and oh Man getting away from the Arizona Cardinals. And
it's like it reminds me of pimp my ride, because
(23:37):
all this offseason has been is like take your pick.
It's either pimp my resume, pimp my potential. It's just
like that's what it is with Kyler Murray. All of
a sudden, Kyler Murray became good in one NFL off season.
He hasn't been good in seven years. He's been good
like one off season, like pimped everything. It's just like
(23:58):
that old show. It's like he took his dilapidated car
slash NFL resume and he just went to the body
shop and they're like, oh, bells and whistles, we'll give
you Justin Jefferson. Well, you know, we'll give you Kevin
O'Connell boom. All of a sudden, it looks much better now.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
It's like if you look at Kyler Murray.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
So just a couple of things to keep in mind.
Kyler Murray the most touchdown passes he's thrown in a
single season.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Take a guess. You got a number in mind? Okay,
you got it, lock it in m you got a number.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
I'm gonna go with twenty four.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
It's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Guess, Coop, you want to guess here? How many touchdown
passes peak Kyler Murray in seven years? What's the most
he's throng?
Speaker 8 (24:46):
Actually, like I'm just I'm still stunned at how like
Ann Hathaway, No, no, at Lorena's guess being like an actual,
like feasible.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Yeah, that's that's wow.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Thanks.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
Yeah right, I was gonna say twenty, but I think
it might think it ends to actually more than that.
But go ahead, go ahead and let us know.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
It's twenty six. Okay, prize to Lorraine.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Now I am so close.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Yeah, you're right there.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
So like we'll just go in highest to lowest right
for Kyler Murray per season touchdown throws twenty six, twenty four,
twenty one, twenty fourteen, ten six.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Right now, injuries have come into.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Play, which is also the point, you know, you just
discount injuries. It's been a big part of the formula
with Kyler Murray. All of a sudden, it's like injuries
don't are the possibility with the Vikings. It's like he's
got Justin Jefferson, All is great, he's fine. Now it's
like this dude is passer rating for his career.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Should we do? This is a guessing game. This this
is way more challenge.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Like we would say one hundred is is really good?
You get into triple figures. Now you're you're talking really
really good. So if you have that as a barometer, right,
where do you think Kyler Murray has been for his career.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
You want to take a guess, Loraina.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Now I'm Alex Trebek, I have I'm the answers are
right in front of me. I don't even know what
I would guess if you just threw that question my way.
So don't feel bad either way. But what you guess
is Kyler Murray's career passer rating. That might be my
sports green, but I told you one hundred is like
really really good.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Okay, So if Kyler Murray isn't killing it with you
killing it, let's go.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Let's go fifty seven.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Okay, Coop, There's no way it's that bad. It's not
that bad.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
I'm gonna go.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
Eighty. Okay, Coop wins this one. Lorena, I'm sorry, but ninety.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Two point two okay, that's that's been his career passer rating.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Now, this is what I've a lot better than I
thought it would. That's octally bad. That's way higher.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Yeah, I guess, But it's all how you look at it.
So if you look at the NFL, now, this is
what I like to do. So what he's given you
for seven years. If you just look at quarterback ratings
last season passer rating, we're not talking QBR. The ESPN
stat passer rating, Okay, c J. Stroud last season, right
didn't kill it, wasn't crushing it. Last season c J.
(27:26):
Stroud was at ninety two point nine. That's higher, and
Kyler Murray's at ninety two point two for his career.
You know who's just lower just last season only is
Daisy Fresh Giants rookie Jackson Dart. He was at ninety
one point seven. So Kyler Murray is in between last
(27:47):
season c J. Stroud and Jackson Dart. That's what he's
given you for seven years. That's the type of production
he's given you for seven years. That is not good
enough for a former number one overall draft pick. And
I'm supposed to believe just because he's in purple, all
is great. Now he got something to prove, and he's
(28:10):
got one of the best receivers in the game, and
what he's just gonna unleash.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Hell, I don't buy it. I don't buy it.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I'm not rooting against him. I think that he's got
a lot of talent, He's got potential. It just hasn't
been realized and like everything has just been wiped away.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Remember how we were clowning.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Kyler Murray when he signed his contract in the Arizona
Cardinals put a stipulation in his contract because he's on.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
The sticks, he's playing video games.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
They're like, yeah, we need you to study and I
don't know, like be an adult, can you do that?
They put a stipulation in his contract. I'm paraphrasing, but
that's what it boiled down to. It's like all of
that doesn't even exist anymore.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
He's with the Viking. All is great. I just I
don't by I gotta see it to believe it.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Like, we've got multiple hurdles to jump over for Kyler
Murray to realize his potential. One, he's got to stay healthy.
That that's a big hurdle for him to jump over. Two,
he's got to be very productive. With the supporting cast
that he has and the head coach that he.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Has, he should be very.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
Productive, like to make good on this deal and the
way he's being talked about.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Man, Like any pay attention.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Just going forward, whether you're listening to me, you're listening
to whatever show on Fox Sports Radio, you're listening to
anything anywhere. It's TV, it's whatever, it's first take, it's
you know, first things first, and whatever show you're listening,
just pay attention whenever they talk about Kyler Murray and
(29:58):
I'll tell you ninety ninety nine percent of the time,
it's gonna be something positive. It's like, oh, he's got
a lot of talent to work with. Now, he got
a lot of potential. Man, this guy's one of the
most talented quarterbacks.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
I know, I know. Put the resume on this side,
one of the most talented quarterback. Bad but bad but bad.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
But this guy has maxed out at twenty six touchdown
passes in a single season.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
Twenty six, Like, that's nothing to write home about.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
You can't have a passer rating for seven years that
would slot in between the production last season of c. J.
Stroud and Jackson Dart. That's just not good enough. It isn't.
And let's not act like he's had nothing to work with.
I know he's with the Arizona Cardinals, but Trey McBride
is one of the best tight ends in football, right, Like,
(30:46):
it's not like he's had nothing and the cupboard is
completely and utterly bare, nothing to work with.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
That's not the case. Now.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Obviously, the Vikings offensively much better situation, much more talent.
So we'll see, we'll see if he can make good.
And all of a sudden, the production goes north and
he makes you know, he makes great strides going forward.
But I got to see it to believe it. And
I'll tell you what, man, I haven't seen this before.
I have not seen one off season completely revamp how.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
We think of a quarterback.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
We're just clowning him for not being dedicated enough and
you know, playing video games when he's when he's in Arizona,
and that's all been forgotten. It's all been wiped away,
just totally washed away. Oh this guy, I'm expecting big things.
Kyler Murray. You watch Kyler. He's got something to prove.
Kyler Murray, He's gonna be he gonna be really really good.
(31:42):
Where does he rank in the hierarchy of NFC North quarterback?
So well, he's one of the top ones.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
It's like, what what are we are we talking.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
About right now? He's dead last is what he is.
He's dead last. I hope you realize that he's not
better than Jared Goff. He's not better than Jordon Love.
You're not better than Caleb Williams. He is dead last
in his division. Let's not make stuff up now. Listen,
if all of a sudden is healthy productive winning games
(32:13):
like this is all subject to change, but as of
right now, he is dead last. Make no mistake about it.
All right, let me get out to the phones. Tony
is in Seattle. Wants to check in. Tony, You're on
Fox Sports Radio. What's going on, Bud? How you doing?
Speaker 4 (32:28):
Brian?
Speaker 5 (32:28):
My friend? I love you man, you are a great
host and everything else, but that half the way and
the Lively, oh god, not the way she's an OFFTI winner.
What is Blake Lively? She's beautiful, I'll give you that,
but halfway she's come up. It's like they most have
(32:49):
great careers. But if you're talking beautiful, if you're talking
half away, you gotta go with halfway. I love you, man,
kill me here. I love that you're de genuine gamblers.
I love that, and I love your souls with New
and swart Sea and everything. But some take was like halfway,
(33:11):
I gotta go with. I gotta go with my boy too.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
I just think and thank you, Tony, and I'm not
cutting you off right now.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Thank you for the props. That's awesome of you.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
But I thought you were Oh man, sorry, Coop, Yeah,
I let you astray.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Yeah, my bad, But I think I've just ruined Everybody's
The only reason I said Blake Blake Blake Lively is
because one, she is hotter, no mistake, no doubt about it.
And she's absolutely hotter, more attractive. But it's just because
it's the first picture that popped up. That's the only
reason I mentioned Blake Lively. I think that's distracted everybody
(33:52):
from the main point. It doesn't it doesn't have to
be just Anne Hathaway versus Blake Lively. You just because
you're losing that one, No, no, no, no no, if
you're just joining us. Coop told me that People magazine
named Anne Hathaway the most beautiful woman of twenty twenty six. Right,
that's the official most beautiful woman of twenty twenty six.
(34:14):
And I'm like, you gotta be kidding me, man, Like
she's beautiful. Don't get me wrong, she's beautiful, she's talented,
all that good stuff. She's not the most beautiful of
twenty twenty six. Like, let's let's be realistic over here.
I've got a couple of examples. You seem to be
a Shakira fan, right, Lorena played some Skira earlier.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
Rakira.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
You like the beach example, right, If Shakira is walking
along the beach and Anne Hathaway is walking along the beach, who.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
Are you looking at?
Speaker 3 (34:45):
See?
Speaker 7 (34:46):
And I love this, I love this idea that you
did here. But then that also brings us back to
just physical beauty, and this award that Anne Hathaway won
is more than just her physical appearance, which is all
the ways top notch, by the way, with minimal work done.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
I'm gonna say better.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Than Shakira, better than Shakira.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
But for this year, Yeah, what has Shakira done this year?
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Year most beautiful, But in terms.
Speaker 7 (35:11):
Of being out in the public eye and doing things like,
anne Hathaway takes the cake.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
But that's the thing is.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
Then don't tell me she's the most beautiful woman of
twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Tell me something else.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Tell me she's the most beautiful and talented and accomplished
or something I don't know, right, like change the description,
like she's accomplished a lot in twenty twenty You're gonna have.
Speaker 7 (35:32):
To look at who the most like the best man
was the most handsome man.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
I'll look that up coming up right, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
You know what's funny is you would never be able
to tell by this show. But I'll tell you a
very brief story. So I was doing a radio show
in Portland. I was there for about three years. And
what was cool about that show was one it was televised.
They just televised it the radio show. So we had
a lot of fun with that. And then there was
(36:01):
a comedy club and so we had all these comedians
come into the studio and do these interviews and some
of these dudes are just hilarious guys and girls. They
were amazing. And I can't remember which comedian was there
at the time, but he was talking about I don't
know who it was.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
It was.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
We stumbled onto like talking about hot women. Shockingly right,
the sports radio host and a comedian. We're talking hot chicks.
And I can't remember who he was talking about, but
I was like, you know, she's stunning, don't get me wrong,
but I gotta I gotta be able to talk to
a girl.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
You know, I like, you might.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Show me a beautiful girl, but that's all She is
is looks.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
I gotta talk to her.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
See if she's funny, see if she's smart, she's got
some charisma. There are girls that are beautiful and that's
all they bring to the table, and all of a
sudden they're not as pretty. And there are girls that
are pretty cute but they're just awesome, and all of
a sudden they're way more attractive.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
And I was like, you know what I'm saying, and
the guy.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Was like, no, I don't know any any of what
you're talking about, but it's just funny. So that that
really is me. But you's got to change the description,
that's all. If we're just talking beautiful, like beautiful, maybe
I'm being too literal. It can mean way more than
just physical appearance, and that's clearly what this award is about.
(37:23):
But mah gosh, if you just whittle it down to
just beauty, just like looks, we're just looking at looks.
Bro not No, not the crowning achievement of twenty twenty six.
I hope no one shares this podcast with her. That
would be unfortunate. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox
is your Number. Some of the militia wants to check
in appreciate what Tony was saying.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
That was fun. Oh I'll give you a quick blurb here.
There is.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
There is zero doubt something will absolutely happen this fl season,
and based on the conversations.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
It's like, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
If I'll tell you this is absolutely going to happen.

And hathaway from not not every conversation during the break
needs to make it on air.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
The first part of this is the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
Okay, they're saying that Patrick Mahomes is quote way ahead
of schedule after tearing his ACL. He tore his ACL
in December. Chiefs also say that he is quote in
a good position end quote to participate in OTA's later
this month, and he could potentially potentially return by week one.
(39:43):
Let me just spoiler alert right now, because I've heard
shows here and there, you know, flipping around TV radio
where it's like, is Patrick Mahomes gonna be ready for
week one?
Speaker 1 (39:55):
Are we sure?
Speaker 2 (39:56):
It's It's been a question that's been asked, right like,
is he gonna be ready.
Speaker 1 (40:01):
For a week one? He's going to play week one?
Speaker 2 (40:06):
Garn freaking' teed, He'll be out there playing in week one,
Like this shouldn't even be a question. This guy is
a competitive maniac. I love Mahomes.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
Mahomes is not a guy that's like, hey, you know what,
I'm ramping up.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
I'm kind of getting there, Like this dude will rehab
his balls off. He'll absolutely be out there week one guaranteed.
That's one of the other things. The schedule starts to
get revealed on Tuesday. So normally they'll just say the
first game of the year. The Seahawks do play the
Chiefs and so that that could be the first game
(40:45):
of the season. And it's like, what is is Mahomes
gonna be healthy? Yes, he will be healthy. He'll be
out there in Week one. I get to Koop's horrible
argument coming up next
