Speaker 2 (00:18):
Takes a big, big man to admit he's wrong. Sometimes,
Moncey Belanos, takes a big big woman to admit her faults.
Somebody today on this show was dead wrong, dead wrong,
not dead giveaway, dead wrong when it comes to Anthony
Richardson and his career as an NFL quarterback.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
I think a lot of people feel that way.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Dan, you think a lot of people also feel that
you're dead right, Uh.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
Huh, that they were dead wrong on Anthony Richardson.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
We are a show of truth, We are a show
of character integrity. We will not shy away from some
of our faults. One of us here was dead wrong
about Anthony Richardson. We're going to get to that in
a second. By the way, welcome in. It's a Friday Friday,
and here's your bonus. Moncey and I will be with

(01:10):
you on Fox Sports Radio for the next four hours.
So we're in for Doug Gottlieb. Today Doug was in
for the Herd doing Colin Cowherd. We are then going
to be in for Cavino and rich coming up at
five o'clock Eastern time, two Pacific. So we got four
hours and we're not doing it by ourselves. Moncey Ryan Berschinger.
Ryan Berschinger is here, as is Iowa Sam. And you
heard Isaac at the news desk. That's right, all right,

(01:32):
So last night you're at that news desk, yes, and
you're about to take in some pre season football. Exciting
right Here comes Anthony Richardson out on the field, ready
to go. And what do you see?

Speaker 3 (01:45):
I see what feels like a glitch in a video game. Okay,
that's what I see? And like, did he just get
did anybody? What is he down on the floor with
the game just started? What happened? It felt like a
glitch in video game when I just saw a guy
blne and take him down in his what third play?
Second snap? What was that? It happened so fast it

(02:10):
felt like a glitch in the system.

Speaker 4 (02:12):
This is.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
This doesn't happen in preseason games, no, okay? And there
is something that needs to be said about how this
play happened last night, because there's a it's a there's
a much bigger topic that we're going to get to.
I remember asking former NFL lineman now Fox Sports host
Jeff Schwartz about this because Patrick Mahomes would always play

(02:38):
in preseason games, and now we're seeing a little bit
more of a trend where guys are playing more. At
least last night, we saw Joe Burrow play where you're
going to get some of the starters getting some action
in the preseason and not being held out entirely. And
Jeff said, look, you can scheme things up in a
way where Patrick Mahomes is not going to get touched,

(03:01):
but there's things that you can do within that quarter
of the game where he's not going to get blindsided,
he's not going to get crushed. He's not going to
do any of those things because they're the Chiefs and
their Patrick Mahomes, and Patrick Mahomes knows what he's doing.
That was not the case last night for the Indianapolis Colts.
And by Jeff Schwartz's review, by Kurt Warner's review, by

(03:22):
Chase Daniel's review, the issue with Anthony Richardson getting sacked
last night was not on the Colts offensive line.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
Or the second third stringers.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
Yes, it was none of their faults. The fault was
on Anthony Richardson. And so Anthony Richardson gets leveled and
he doesn't read the play correctly. He had a hot
route because a guy was coming in clean, and the
NFL players can break it down and you can find
it on social media much much better than what I

(03:54):
would be able to. But the point is is he
had a hot route, he didn't hit the running back
out of the back or the other option, and got
absolutely leveled. So all of the discourse that you may
have heard it was solely on Anthony Richardson's shoulders last
night of why he got hit and why that's different from, say,
something that the Kansas City Chiefs Sir Patrick Mahomes would do.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
It really did seem that way, even though it happened
so fast, because my perception on it, it happened fast.
He didn't even look to that side of the field.
He did not, and being a quarterback is the hardest
job in sports, I think it is. He didn't even
look to that right side. So I was like, was

(04:36):
Was it on him or was it did somebody else
miss block, miss a step? I don't know, but reading
all of those former NFL players, former quarterbacks saying no,
it was on him, and in the moment I thought that,
but I couldn't verify because I've never played that position,
you know what I mean. I was like, did somebody
miss the block? And that's why it was a clean
straight I'm telling you, a glitch in the system. I
couldn't believe that nobody was around him. This poor dude

(04:59):
took a hit with without even knowing it was coming.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
You say it's a glitch, It's like me playing Madden
on Madden level, like when I'm still like on the
one that's like right above rookie. Like that's what it is.
Like a guy just came and clean and sacked. You're like,
uh oh, yes, Anthony Richards did and gave an explanation
on what happened on the play last night in Baltimore.

Speaker 5 (05:16):
I just got to get my eyes and just be
able to know react to that. But just fiveman pro
just playing hot, you know, I just gotta be on
my p's and q's when it comes to that. It
was just gonna be hard for me to see anyway
because my eyes are looking a certain way. But I
just gotta be keyed on when when everybody bringing pressures
like that, I started was about to be the nickel,
but they brought it from the other side, So I
got to be ready to just get the ball out.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
So he took full responsibility. He did, and I feel
that that that is good of Anthony Richardson. That's not
the whole story. The whole story with Anthony and Richardson
throughout his career hasn't been necessarily the production, which has
been a major part of it. It's also manzi been
the availability. And last night when he gets clobbered, his

(06:00):
pinky ends up looking like it's throwing up a gang
sign like it is. It looked like a compass like
it was. It was knocked out of sorts on the
one hit. And this is the problem with Anthony Richardson.
He hasn't been available to be able to grow as

(06:20):
a quarterback because he is always getting injured. And so
we look at last night and we say, well, he's
got to be able to make that read. All the
former players are saying they got to be able to
make that read I could. I agree with that. I
will take their word for it. I'll take Anthony Richardson's
word for it. But the ultimate, the ultimate, overlying thing
is that Anthony Richardson has not been available to progress

(06:42):
in his career, which he has needed to do because
when he entered the NFL he was as raw of
a prospect as there was in twenty twenty three. So
now he's hurt again, missed some a camp this year,
missed a bunch of time his rookie season last year
time as well. He's always going to get hurt and

(07:04):
there's never going to be a time where he's going
to be healthy enough in his career to stay unscathed
and be able to get into a rhythm and learn
the things that he needs to learn. That is the
biggest issue that I see last night is it's not
that Anthony Richardson missed the hot route, which I think
is the obvious, and so he got hurt again, and
thank goodness for him. It's not a serious injury with

(07:25):
his finger, but it's a dislocated pinky. And every time
everything happens, there seems to be something going wrong with
Anthony Richardson.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
A dislocated pinky on his throwing hand, also not on
the other one, and he said he was able to
grip the ball on the sideline and that he was
going to be fine. He's day to day. In fact,
they're already talking that he's going to be back, probably
in time to play for their next preseason game. But
I feel that I agree with you, Dan totally. The
injuries are a big part of it. But despite the injuries,

(07:54):
I feel like you should be progressing. You should still
learn to make that rea even if you've been injured,
you've been in the league, you've been watching, you need
to do that. The Las Vegas Raiders had the rookie
quarterback Cam Miller in the game and he had a short,
little stint, but he didn't miss the throat. He looked elite.
And so when you see a rookie perform like that,

(08:15):
and then you have Anthony Richardson who's not a rookie
who has been hurt, it's still kind of like, okay, dude,
so are we done thinking Anthony Richardson has it?

Speaker 2 (08:25):
I get what you're saying. I'm not trying to handle
him with kid gloves, but I do think that because
of how how little experience he had coming into the
National Football League leaving after his Red Schard sophomore year
with Florida. He is the guy that needed all of it,
and some maybe don't. Some guys were maybe in college

(08:46):
systems their all entire career. In this specific instance, I'm
not sure on what Cam Miller is all done throughout
his career, but what I can say is Anthony Richardson
needed that time. He needed all of those reps. He
needs to be in Cam He's fighting for a job.
He's not there this offseason, so it's inexcusable for him

(09:08):
to miss that. From what you're saying last night, that
read right, that's what you're saying.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
I do want to say that, Yeah, yes, you've been injured.
You should be studying film and still trying to get
it even though you're injured.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
Yes, And I don't. I can't argue with that. My
point is is that even if he gets it, anytime
he gets hit, he's hurt. Yeah, And that's so with
Cam Newton, I think is a great example. I would
rather take Cam Newton, have eight years of Cam Newton
and have him be the type of player that he was,

(09:40):
both running the football and throwing the football then trying
to just make him into a passer and take away
the running game. I think that that's at some point
Josh Allen is not going to be able to run
like he runs right now. And Josh Allen's developed into
a great passer. Cam Newton could throw a rocketball sometimes
he was thirty yards over the head of the the receiver.

(10:01):
But Anthony Richardson game. Richardson's game is built on his
athleticism and his arm and everything that he can do
with his legs and feet, and you have to be
healthy to be able to do that. So there's a
physicality towards the game. And if Anthony Richardson is not
able to be physical because he gets hurt every time
that he gets hit, I don't know alw he's going
to be a viable quarterback in the NFL.

Speaker 3 (10:21):
You make excellent points, you have to also be able
to just do the job though just having the athleticism
and being injured doesn't help. But like at this point,
I still I'm standing he should have already progressed from
his rookie season on how to read that play.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
I can'not wrong, you know.

Speaker 3 (10:39):
Like, and you're not wrong either. You're not wrong either.
That The point is like he keeps getting injured and
he can't get out there, so it's like it's almost
it's like like we're just going in a circle. We're
just going in a circle.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
I feel that this Anthony richards in line I called
him a bust earlier this offseason, because there's there's no
doubt about it. Like even there's something that I don't
want to salvage with Bryce Young because that's not the
right word. But Bryce Young is now at least on
an upswing. Like it was like this hit rock bottom
a rock bottom. I don't know if Anthony Richardson has
hit rock bottom. Great point, he's been given the starting
job both times. Now that he's in a competition, there's

(11:14):
been maybe a flat like last year. There's a game
against the Jets that he flashed and played well. But
ultimately availability is the biggest ability for Anthony Richardson in
my mind. And Monci, this is a This is a
departure from something that I said two years ago. I
said this about Anthony Richardson. I was doing a show
with Brian No leading up to the twenty twenty three

(11:35):
NFL Draft This is what I said about the then
Florida quarterback and what I felt about his future in
the National Football League.

Speaker 6 (11:42):
I almost think Anthony Richardson has to go number one.
It's not meant to be hot. Take now this out there.
He's the best quarterback in the draft. But I use
the prices right example, how many times you go on
price is right and you're trying to win a car, right,
Let's go for the car instead of just setting you know,
settling for the for the exercise equipment, right, You're going

(12:04):
for the car.

Speaker 4 (12:05):
And that's what I think Anthony Richardson is.

Speaker 6 (12:08):
He's the the automobile that you want to win on
the price is right.

Speaker 4 (12:11):
Yeah, you know, be nice to have Bryce Young, be
nice to have CJ. Stroud.

Speaker 6 (12:15):
But if you can go away with the automobile and
winning on the prices right, it's what you want to do.
And how many times are you gonna be on the
price is right to win that to win that car?
And I think that's who Anthony Richardson is. Like the
game tape says, one thing, you can watch Bryce Young,
you can watch CJ. Stroud, and you can watch Anthony
Richardson playing games. This past fall, and I get it.

(12:37):
Stroud and Bryce Young are gonna be you know, head
and you know head and shoulders above what Anthony Richardson is.
But if you can turn him into Josh Allen, that
is an absolute win for your franchise. Anthony Richardson to me,
is the car on the price is right that you're
gonna go for it no matter what. And so that's
why I start to think, like, if you're a team,

(12:58):
and I'm not saying the Bears, the Bears have justin fields,
see how it works out.

Speaker 4 (13:02):
He could be their car for the future.

Speaker 6 (13:05):
But it's for a team like the Colts, like the
Texans who are sitting there at too. Maybe it's the Raiders,
you know, trying to trade up if you get to
that number one spot.

Speaker 4 (13:13):
I think he got to take Anthony Richardson all right.

Speaker 3 (13:15):
First of all, I rather play Planko. Second of all,
he is the car. He is the car that you
they're not giving you. You know, a Kia.

Speaker 4 (13:25):
I have a Kia.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
I love my Kia, but Kia is not very expensive.
He just won, you know, a Maserati. And then they're like,
oh great, you have to pay the taxes on it
and you're like, I don't have those taxes. I can't
afford this. It's that's the situation. And like I I
hear you were you weren't right, you were't not right,

(13:48):
but you weren't the only one. A lot of people
felt like Anthony Richardson had a really high ceiling even
after his rookie year where he had moments that you
were like, this guy's gonna be really good. He has
the potential to be really good. Injuries. Everybody was like,
I know, it's this rookie year, and then the injuries
haven't gone anywhere. We're kind of like in limbo with
Anthony Richardson, and that's worse than hitting rock Bottom.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
I caught astray from myself by also saying justin Fields
could be the future. It's Chicago, so so I I
I I get it. I and I love that you
stood up for me in a way of that other
people felt.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
It's so many people and I even saw it too,
But this limbo we're in, it's it's worse than hitting
rock bottom.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
I don't think we're in limbo. And the game show
I should have used is let's make a deal. As
much as that show annoys me right now, I'm not
a fan of let's make it. There is they win,
and there's the zonk. And what I didn't what I
didn't take into account was that Anthony Richardson could be
a zonk and that's what that's what he's been so far.

(14:58):
There's the car on the other end, at least on
the price is right. Maybe you do get exercise equipment
or you leave with nothing, but there's something about getting
zonked on the on Let's make a deal, that's the
better option. In explaining that, I really didn't take into
account of losing. Sure, I just said, let's go for
the jackpot. See people play spelling bee on prices right,

(15:19):
one of my favorite games. Look, you could have five
thousand dollars or you could try to win a car,
like let's go for the car. Okay, you could have
four thousand or because you only have a c up
there on the board prices right, Fans know exactly what
I'm talking about. They're like, no, I'm going for the car.
That was me in this with Anthony Richardson, just like,
just go.

Speaker 3 (15:36):
For it, keep going.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
And I watched every game that C. J. Stroud played
in his college career in fact I took him for
granted for how good he was in his college career
at Ohio State. But I was still willing to be like,
if you want to hit the jackpot, goal for it.
But I crapped out, hit the zonk, didn't win. And
that was me two years ago on Anthony Richardson. So
I'm not trying to talk out of both sides of

(15:56):
my mouth. Was completely wrong on the analysis. And the
reason that I'm wrong Nuncy is, as he said, he's
going to be back next week, But who's to say
that he's not going to get injured the next time.
Who's to say he's not gonna tap out the next time,
which is another thing that has labeled him in his
career for tapping onto the game that he had last year,
I believe against the Houston Texans, Like those are those
are all the things that have happened with Anthony Richardson

(16:18):
And just when you want it again, how many chances
can you give the guy before zonking out yourself? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (16:24):
He he do You remember we were sitting here when
we got the news that Daniel Jones was being signed
signed by the Colts and there was going to be
a quarterback competition, and I made a comment. I was like, well,
if Daniel Jones wins that job, that's it for Anthony Richardson,
Like that's the story. That's gonna be the story.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
Sure, and then.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
Instead we actually he gets hurt, and it's like, I
don't even know. I feel like this is limbo, Like
he's just staying afloat and so he's not zonked completely right,
He's not. He's gonna they're still wondering.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
Yes, but he's zonked because he can't play, he can't
stay on the field. Like that's that's my that's my
takeaway on it, in the Daniel Jones part of it,
because I've actually read some Daniel Jones slander on X Today.
At least Daniel Jones is available right now, and that's
that's the issue. He may not be better, he probably

(17:16):
isn't better than Anthony Richardson, but at least he's available,
which is half of the equation that you need it,
maybe even more so than what Anthony Richardson has provided
you so far. By the way, where was moncey sound
of talking about Daniel Jones. We had to have me
give away the double stray. So my own self, and

(17:36):
I didn't realize. Thanks for keeping the Justin Fields part
in as well for us.

Speaker 3 (17:40):
We know how much you liked to talk, so I
was just saying that.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
Jay, I'll shut up. Get Moncey on X at Mancy
blaanias you can find me at Dan Byer on Fox.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio. She's Monzi Belanios, I'm
Dan Byer in for Doug. Today Isiglong Crown's going to
give us the latest of what's happening at bottom of
the hour. Ryan Berschinger is our executive producer in iowas
Sam here as well. We got game time in twenty minutes. Yeah,
another thing to put a bow on this Anthony Richardson thing.
Kurt Warners had to put out another video to explain

(19:11):
what Anthony Richardson missed last night and why he missed
the play. Dana Lafsky has now put one out within
the last couple of hours as well, because there just
seems to be a lot of conversation about Anthony Richardson,
and I think Mancy is what you say to where

(19:33):
Anthony Richardson is is a fair point, because we don't
give rookies much slack anymore, and it feels like the
Colts have given him opportunity after opportunity after opportunity, which
maybe they should, Maybe more teams should do that and
not just move off of a guy they had a
heavily a heavy investment in him as the fourth overall pick.

(19:57):
To your point, at what point are you just like,
all right, this just isn't working, whether you're there or not,
And so I think that you're right.

Speaker 3 (20:07):
I also think you're right.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
Yes, in my whole so much to it. Yeah, even
if he gets it down, if he gets everything down, pat,
it's not going to matter because he's not shown that
he can be available full time again. Played limited at college,
you know, limited uh snaps at Florida, ended up starting
one full season basically for the Gators, and then now

(20:31):
it's come to the NFL. Played four games his first
year and played eleven games last year, and now he's
again takes a hit in preseason, he's and he's hurt,
and I just think that that's something like that's going
to keep on popping.

Speaker 3 (20:43):
Up and maybe it's just a change of scenery that
he needs. We've seen other players do that, but it
just seems like right now, the story with Anthony Richardson
and the Colts is what it is. He can't stay
on the field and he hasn't progressed or figured it
out in two and a half.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
Your your issue with Anthony Richardson would be addressed by
change of scenery. Mine would not, because I just think
there are guys that just can't stay on the football field.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
I agree. I just think somebody would take a chance
on him. Yeah, I agree with that, you know what
I mean, like somebody would take.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
A chance on second and third and fourth chance.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
Absolutely absolutely, all right.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
She's Moncey blaa. So I'm dan Byer. We'll get to
the w NBA durt in the second. But Isaac Low
and Crown is here with the latest of what's going
on on this Monday or Friday. Excuse me, I'm sorry,
I don't know where that came from.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
Actually tell me, I don't know what day it is.
Half the time, it's yesterday.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
So Moncey was here late last night, not not to
pull back the curtain, but she was, Yeah, we're off
to Moncey. We're in a fier evacuation zone where I live.
Where where like, we're not in the dangerous, dangerous part.
We're in a warning sort of area. So like we're
in the neighborhood. So you're up and you're watching and
the you know, the air smells like an ash tray.

(21:54):
So this is just a lot going on. So it
is a Friday. It is a Friday. I got any Richard,
Anthony richardson thing wrong, and then I got Friday. Thanks
for listening to The Doug Gotleep Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
Not one, not two, not three, but now four objects
have been thrown on the court, not three, not four
at WNBA games.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
Not suitable for work items.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
I don't want to and I'm sure that we could
probably say it, but I just don't want to keep
on saying it and saying it and saying it so
we know what we're talking about. Last night there was
a purple one thrown out onto the floor, but I
felt last night it jumped the shark. I felt that
last night's action in the w NBA game where now

(22:58):
it's enough is enough. I don't know if those things
again happened in three like deaths, but the fourth seemed
like a little too much Monty. Last night in the WNBA, you.

Speaker 3 (23:10):
Could even argue maybe the third one was a little
bit too much. I agree, it's it's not funny anymore.
And I thought it was funny the first time. I'm
not gonna lie. I thought it was funny seeing that
green color thing go flying. It was funny. I'm not
gonna lie. But now it's like, okay, can we move
on from it? Because if you're just gonna keep doing this,

(23:30):
then the WNBA the product that they're trying to push
at a time when your stars are hurt. This is
the last thing the WNBA needs that this is the
topic of conversation. Oh, let's look up if it something
went flying last night. Yes, we're not looking up Angel
Reicia's stats because she's not playing. You're not looking up
Kaitlin Clark's stats because she's not playing, and Paige Becker's

(23:53):
is playing, but she's on a team that's ever good,
and so it's just like this is what people are
looking up, and that's bad and it's not funny. It's
just it's it's getting to the point where it is
becoming disrespectful. Yes, I agree with you, it's becoming disrespectful.
And even Sophie Cunningham her tweet after the first of

(24:13):
the second one, she's like, you're gonna hit one of us,
and one almost hit her. That was funny, Like even
some of these players are trying to make light of it,
but at some point it's straight up just disrespectful. And
whoever does it next, I hope you spend a week
in jail, a week and week in jail so nobody
else does it, because because if you just tell them that, okay,
you're going to be in detention for a couple of hours,

(24:34):
some of somebody else is gonna do it.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
Yes, a week in jail. There's got to be an example, yes, or.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
Else it's going to keep happy or other items are
going to be thrown.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
I think there's gonna be an There would be a
turn with the fans of who would do it, So
I think it would be easy to capture whoever. Yeah,
at first, like it's funny, like when we even when
we saw it in the Buffalo Bill's game, Like you're
just like all right, that's Bill's mafia. It is what
it is, and it is.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
It is different when it's a men completely agree different,
and that's why.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
It's actually funnier in the NFL, actually, I do, especially
when people are kicking it because nobody, again, nobody wants
to nobody wants to grab or do anything with it.
But I got to the point last night, and I
don't know if it was because it was a different
color or what the reason was, but it just crossed

(25:34):
the line. And I know Cheryl Reeve of the Minnesota
Lynx went off on the conversation, and I think what
she said was correct. It's your point. It's been very disrespectful.
I started thinking of because I'm a parent, and if
you're taking kids to games and this is now happening,

(25:55):
they're going to start to ask questions. And I don't
know the question that I would have, and I don't
I hope it doesn't sound like get off my lawn, guy.
But I know that the WNBA does cater to children
and young girls and bringing them in and youth teams,
and you would have games in the afternoon because it's
easier for those fans to attend. At first, it was funny. Haha,

(26:20):
you see it. And now I'm digging in deeper in
saying like, I just don't know, like how I would
explain that. And if I was a parent my kid
loved basketball, I would hate to have to have that
have to be the conversation on the way home, especially
if the crowd and everybody was making something about it.

Speaker 3 (26:37):
You're you're a one hundred percent right that the WNBA
does bring a very friendly crowd. They purposely have those
early games. I don't know what you say to kids
that are there and asking what is that again? First
time funny, But now it doesn't seem like it's going away,
especially because they came out and took responsibility for it

(26:58):
that they were trying to promote a crypto coin of
some sort. And I'm gonna say what happened last night
was a copycat, not the people who took responsibility for it.
So it's just gonna keep happening unless something bad happens
to the next person who does it. And it doesn't
even have to be law enforcement. Imagine, just imagine Angel
Reese gets hit in the head with one people are

(27:20):
gonna lose their mind. Sure, in the arena they're gonna
be it's gonna be people taking the person down. It's
not even gonna be LA enforcement taking the person down.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
I think that Sophie Cunningham has been great throughout this
because she made the tweet and then she gets hit
by number three and she goes on her own podcast
and explains that she's having conversations with her mom, you know,
about this, and she's like, I never in my wildest
dreams thought like up to that point, that's funny. Last

(27:49):
night it just stopped being funny anymore. It did, and
I came across that on my timeline just say, okay,
all right this again, Like I just it's one of
those things where you don't know where the line is crossed,
and I felt that it ended up being crossed last night.
It was funny for us, it's funny for social media, money,
for people our age. Now I'm trying to think of
the other people that could be affected, including the players

(28:10):
and coaches. I mean, at some point, you're being mocked
in whatever way, and that can't feel good. And then
I think about just explaining it to your kids if
you're bringing them to a game, and that's not why
it's bad. Enough, like I worry about, like I think
about like fan behavior. I'm like, I don't want to
take my kid to a game. And we've seen fights
in you know, ballparks and the football stadiums, and I
always feel bad for the parents who are like trying

(28:32):
to keep away their kid in a Dak Prescott Jersey,
you know, or something like that, or you know, Clayton
Kershaw Jersey and there's a fight that's breaking out and
you're trying to protect them. How do you explain that,
because that's a world that you don't want them in.
How do you explain this? I have no idea. I
wouldn't have no idea what to say, and just hope,
just hope that they didn't see what was actually thrown
onto the court.

Speaker 3 (28:52):
Oh yeah, no, that's hope that it's not going to happen.

Speaker 8 (28:55):
Dan.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
The way social media is, it's at your fingertips. It's
at your fingertips to see it. It's it's disrespectful at
this point, there's no question about it. You could even
argue it was disrespectful the first time. But the first
time it just was funny. It was funny, that green
thing flying around. It was funny.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Now not so much show of hands. I know this
doesn't work in the audio medium. Well, there's five of us.
Manzie and I are both have our hand raised. I'm
thinking that it crossed the line last night. How many
of you felt that it crossed the line last night
in the w NBA. Okay, okay, okay, I'm gonna say
I thought was.

Speaker 9 (29:31):
The third time I thought this has been gotten old?
After the third you thought even the third to yes,
because okay, it comes down to the very fundamental idea
that you're going to hurt somebody. You can't throw things
from the crowd, period period. So even if it's funny
and it's a rubber device or whatever an object.

Speaker 2 (29:48):
Cuttingham got hit by the third one, right, yeah, yes,
but she's kind of part of it, that's what that's
what kind of made it funny. And then that she's
kind of played along with it. So that's why I
guess I wasn't necessarily offended by the third.

Speaker 9 (30:00):
Well, you know, a fourth and a fifth and a sixth,
it's gonna just happen until we're just like, okay, stop,
no one's am anymore.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
And even if they do no bag or clear bag policy,
it's like you just put this in your pocket or something,
drip it around your leg. I'm telling you, I'm telling you,
that's all you gotta do. And that's what they're doing.
That's what they're doing.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Yes, yeah, just put it in your pocket.

Speaker 3 (30:24):
In your pocket.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
All these girls were coming up to me in the concourse.
I have no idea why. I have no idea why.
I was just walking to get a soda and then
like twenty girls came up to me and were like,
what's up? Even a couple of even a couple of bagues.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
It was like, yeah, I didn't have to pay for
any of this, sixty eight dollars worth of food, none
of it.

Speaker 3 (30:44):
None of it, and you don't know why.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
Oh, she's a wonci Blano. So I'm dan byr Isaac
Longron is embarrassed. I'm pursing her. She's the one that
said and put it in your pocket, because I was like,
I figured the neon green aspect of it would make
it tough to hide anyway if you head it.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
And how do you think, what do you think they
put it?

Speaker 2 (31:02):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
I don't want to know. I don't want to know.
I hope we don't see it anymore. You don't throw
it like a football. It's like end over end right
like that's yes, yes, like a boomerang.

Speaker 8 (31:17):
I did ax throwing last night. I imagine it's first.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
Okay, okay, all right, now it's jumped the show. Now
it's over with. All right, it's the Doug gotlib Shoke
here on Fox Sports Radio. Oh geez, all right, we're done.

Hello.

Speaker 2 (32:18):
Jade sweets In called Dan Dirk Diggler. He won't get
the reference because he doesn't know anything about movies. I
do know what that movie, what that name is from.
And I have not seen Boogie Knights. But I did
watch Goodfellas last week. I did tell the guys that
for the first time, I watched.

Speaker 3 (32:34):
The Goodfellas the animated No, no, Isaac, Isaac just gave
you a DeNiro like lot. There isn't there.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
I was just talking too. I know you think you
know someone?

Speaker 3 (32:45):
Yeah, sorry, I was just talking to Bow and there
is like an animated movie that's coming home. Hold on,
I'm not crazy, hold on, hold on a bad guy.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
It's a bad guy nineteen ninety.

Speaker 3 (32:56):
Okay, yes, yes, got it? My bad, My bad. I
was talking to Bow and we're talking about kid movies.

Speaker 2 (33:01):
What are you talking about? You at your mom's On Tinder?
Daniel tweets in the conviction and innocence behind put it
in your pocket All Timer segments. Elsa used another phrase
that I didn't catch on to. Yes I did, but
we'll just leave that from the time right.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
It just went fast. You know, I just started speaking
and I realized I think Isaac caught it when I
said it.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
That's like moving on. Then it gets past Low and Kron.
He's got a game for us as well. Let's do it.

Speaker 7 (33:30):
This is game time on the Doug Gottlieb Show.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Hello, Isaac.

Speaker 10 (33:36):
I'd like the record to show that I'm playing hurt
during this segment because I pulled three abdominal muscles from
laughing so hard during the last segment. That being said,
I will soldier along to the following I got DIBs.
All right, this is kind of gently building on the
topic last segment, gently discreetly, delicately handcuffs.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
Which what.

Speaker 10 (34:06):
Get your mind out of the gun? Why don't you
go backcourse? Is it to w NBA games?

Speaker 2 (34:13):
Because all right?

Speaker 10 (34:15):
Which actions by fans that do not include what was
talked about in the previous segment, do you have DIBs on? Well,
what I mean is sports traditions by fans in the
stands at games, for example, with a hat trick in hockey,
tossing their hats onto the ice. So what actual traditions

(34:35):
by fans in the stands at sporting events. Do you
approve of and do you have DIBs on?

Speaker 4 (34:40):
All?

Speaker 3 (34:41):
Right, I have DIBs. I'm not going I enjoy the wave.
Here's I gotta be quick. You gotta be quick. There
are times where like I see the wave and it's
like I if your team is like losing and there's
nothing you can do, you start doing the wave. I'm

(35:01):
going to partake in the wave. I think it's fun,
and especially when it connects, like like a Dodger stadium,
you know how there's separate sections and then all sections connect.
It's awesome.

Speaker 2 (35:10):
I'll do the other wave at IOWA. I'll steal it
from the first quarter. Nice it is, really it is
called the wave. Yes, very original.

Speaker 9 (35:21):
Yes, an original tradition started in and it's a newer tradition. Yeah,
it's only about eight years old. Yes, absolutely, you guys.

Speaker 8 (35:30):
I'm trying to think, but every single one just annoys me.
So I'm I'm trying to think of like anything that's enjoyable.

Speaker 2 (35:40):
By the way, I would wear crappy hats to NHL
game just because yeah, I don't think you get them back. Yeah,
they're not like coming to the gate to pick up
your hat that you threw on the ice after Connor
McGregor's all right, Patrick, I.

Speaker 9 (35:53):
Will I got DIBs on shouting at each corner of
the stadium shouting out the letter of their team. Because
you took an Iowa tradition, I'm going to steal an
Ohio state tradition to became an Iowa tradition.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Oh w A or o h. Yes, yes, so I'm
going to take that.

Speaker 9 (36:09):
I think that when you hear that coming echoing from
each corner of the stadium, it is it'll put a
shiver down your spine.

Speaker 8 (36:16):
Okay, I'll just take go ahead and leave early fans
so that way it uh, I have west traffic going.

Speaker 2 (36:22):
Yes, go ahead and leave.

Speaker 10 (36:24):
There's a Dodger stadium veteran I like brush is the
best of it all.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
Y'all?

Speaker 8 (36:28):
All right?

Speaker 10 (36:29):
Which sports trophy do you have DIBs on? Not the
championship but the trophy itself.

Speaker 2 (36:38):
I got DIBs. I don't know if I'm like changing
the rules here, but the Green Jacket at Augusta that
absolutely works because they do give a trophy out super
winner of the Masters. But I didn't even know that.

Speaker 10 (36:51):
I didn't even know there's a trophy besides green Jacket.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
Okay, because you know I'm going to take DIBs on
the Heisman Trophy.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
Good one.

Speaker 3 (36:58):
I like that. You know I'm taking that one for sure.

Speaker 2 (37:03):
I'll take the Stanley Cup.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
Yeah, it's just I don't want to carry that around.

Speaker 8 (37:13):
I don't want it.

Speaker 3 (37:14):
Seems heavy. You don't want to carry it around.

Speaker 2 (37:16):
It seems I'll take. I'll take. I'll take DIBs on.

Speaker 9 (37:23):
Uh, we're still in the same college football Vane Florida, Rosedale.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
Why there you go? A rivalry trophy between Iowa and
Minnesota football, a big miniature version than Dan gave miniature
rivalry trophies for Iowa.

Speaker 3 (37:37):
And that's sweet.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
Are those displayed now? You're gonna wait till Christmas? No,
they're out all right, and look at them and I
just smile. I think you should take You should take
them down if I would lose its like you have
to put it in.

Speaker 9 (37:51):
The like they go to the they go to the
home of the rival who won it. Yeah, put them
out of sight.

Speaker 10 (37:56):
For the record trivia question for Moncey Moncy, I want
you to guess the weight of the Stanley Cup.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
I'm gonna guess it's some.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
This is not a question in the neighbor the neighborhood.

Speaker 3 (38:09):
I don't know, but I'm gonna I'm gonna guess about
forty five pounds.

Speaker 10 (38:11):
All right, you're relatively close thirty four and a half pounds.

Speaker 2 (38:15):
I'd be way heavier than that.

Speaker 3 (38:16):
It would be heavier. Yeah.

Speaker 10 (38:19):
I just look forward to running your theory by NHL players.
All right, final one here, Okay, with college football coming up,
which college football town do you have DIBs on? Not
just the stadium, not just the tailgaming, not just the campus,
but the whole overall experience. Which college football town do
you have DIBs on?

Speaker 2 (38:40):
I'll tell you which one I and I've been to
more than a few. Which one I loved? Clemson, South Carolina. Yes,
because it's like really like a ton of thirteen thousand
and then you have an eighty thousand seat stadium. It's
kind of a one road in and a one road out.
I got to it. I got to go to a
game that they actually played on Labor Day, a Monday

(39:00):
night game against Florida State years back. It was awesome
at the s O Club, the whole deal. I love
the atmosphere, from I've been to a bunch of SEC
state cities that were great. There was something about Clemson,
South Carolina that I just I loved.

Speaker 9 (39:16):
Yes, well, I would be a homer if I picked
my hometown of Ioway saying it's all right, I'll take Madison,
Wisconsin because I've I've been in Madison. I know there's
a rivalry, but it's a great town. It's a lot
of fun.

Speaker 3 (39:28):
I don't have a lot of college football experience, so
I have to go to Alabama. I got a roll time. Yeah,
like I got to do that if I'm gonna you know, yeah,
make it easy for me.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
How about Austin there?

Speaker 9 (39:41):
You go, keep it weird, everybody.

Speaker 2 (39:45):
Yeah, that's game time.

Speaker 10 (39:46):
That is game time.

Speaker 4 (39:50):
This is game time on The Godlieb Show.

Speaker 2 (39:54):
Early in my broadcasting career, when Wisconsin would kick off
at eleven, we'd have to do tailgates at seven am.
I'd have a hamburger and pepsi at seven am.

Speaker 3 (40:01):
Nice.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
Nothing like it. She's Monte Bolanios. I'm Dan Byer coming
up next. The Jaguars are doing it right. We'll explain
