but we do this every week. It's a Wednesday, It's

(01:05):
the middle of the day, the middle of the show,
the middle of the week. So let's get to the midway.
He's not getting the.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Middle with you. It's time for.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
The midway, Okay. I love the topic that Jason Stewart proposed.
See I'm telling you, Dan Byer, I'm not saying I
love Jason Stewart. I love the topic that he proposed.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
He proposed two of them.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
Well, I like the one where he talked about best
storylines in the NFL.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
Great job, great job.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
Are you okay with that one?

Speaker 3 (01:41):
Sure? I responded to the text, which I know is
a big thing with Jason.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
Now.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Usually my no response was I'm fine with it, and
in this one, I was fine with both of them.

Speaker 5 (01:51):
No. Dog responded, Oh he did, responded, he said, crap,
power is out.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
Oh no.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
I I got home from I was practice when the
text came through, and then I talked to Jason on
the phone, and then I got to my house and
I'm like, why it's so dark in here. There's a
big thunderstorm at my house this morning, and I hadn't
been home and I didn't realize the power was out.
So instead of going and toggling the breaker and getting
it back on which I sent something to do. I

(02:19):
just came to my office to the show. So, so
this is what I wrote.

Speaker 5 (02:24):
I wrote two ideas today, the one story you are
most intrigued by this NFL season. Now this comes with
I have to I feel the need to add instructions
a caveat. Don't Sam up your answers. Don't iowas Sam
up your answers. In other words, one story. Offer the
one most intriguing story of this NFL season, and dig

(02:47):
down on that one. We'll have a conversation. It'll be fun.
Or since Doug recently saw the Cowboys documentary, a conversation
about that and how the Jerry Jones story played out
this week?

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Uh buyer, do you have a yes? Which one do
you want better? Which one do you like?

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Storylines? Because we're gonna talk Cowboys with Matt.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Moseley, I'm there with you. What about you, Jaseter? Are
you okay with that?

Speaker 5 (03:13):
I'm good.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
We got three and we didn't even ask Sam Samuel filibuster.
Let's get to it. Uh, Jay Su, you proposed it.
What's your one storyline that you want to dive deep into?

Speaker 5 (03:24):
Well, I'm always going to skew negative. Uh, But this
time I'm going positive. What I'm gonna switch it up
on you zig when you zag, it's called around here
at the Gottlieb Aaron Rodgers. I need to have a
successful season. I need Aaron Rodgers to have such a

(03:44):
successful season that all the naysayers and all the haters.
If you've noticed, guys, it's been eerily quiet about Aaron
Rodgers this summer. Like there just hasn't been a whole
lot of noise. It's unusual. I think he did one
hit on McAfee. I don't know if he's been told
he can't do anymore McAfee, but it's been unusually quiet.

(04:08):
And I want him just to carry the stoicness into
the season to fifteen wins.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
I root for fifteen games in the toughest division.

Speaker 5 (04:18):
The NFL, fifteen and two fifteen. I need him to
do that. I'm rooting for that. And I just know
that if it's if it is his swan song, I
want it to be a successful one, maybe even an
MVP one, so we could just kind of rub it
in the faces of everybody who's been talking crap the
last four years.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
This is such a from the thoughtful contrarian. Jason Stewart
just deviates. We know he's a Dodgers fan, Doug. We
know he's a Chargers fan, but he usually roots for chaos,
or in his words, he calls it content. Yep, he
calls it content. Yet there's this personal tie with Aaron Rodgers.

(04:58):
I mean, heck Ian O'Connor booked on the show, wrote
the Aaron Rodgers book. There is this love of Aaron
Rodgers that seems to rise above all else when it
comes to Jason.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Yeah, even if smoking that girlfriend I think mentioned it
like she's uncomfortable.

Speaker 5 (05:14):
Would you argue Dan that him thriving this season would
be content because so many people want and expect him
to fail, that him doing well is will will make
them uncomfortable.

Speaker 3 (05:30):
I I do think that that would be content. But
I also feel that arch Manning doing well is content,
and Jason feels it's the opposite, that arch Manning not
doing well is content, correct, yep. And I just think
if Arch doesn't play well, he just we all just
fall into the swamp of college football where there's so
many teams and schools. If Texas is ranked twenty fourth,

(05:53):
we're not going to care about arch Manning at that
point where I guess you could say if the Steelers
are six and six and maybe we're not going to
care so much about Aaron Rodgers to that point, and
that it's just over because we expect this to be
as last season.

Speaker 5 (06:08):
I just needed to be fifteen and two. I'm rotting
somewhere every week.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
Let's go, Okay, what's this storyline.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
I do want to do? You just want to say
one thing on that. I think that we just did
a conversation of toughest division with AFC West and NFC North,
and Doug you said AFC West by far, and I
think that's absolutely fair to say that. But when you
do look at that AFC North and you see the Ravens,

(06:37):
who are a Super Bowl pick of many, so there's
one hurdle to get to. Then you bring in the
rest of the AFC West that we expect to be
wild card contenders. Cincinnati we think is going to score
points but not stop anyone. The point is is it's
just a tough road in the AFC. It really is,

(06:57):
and so you're gonna need Aaron Rodgers to be good
because I don't think that that defense for as strong
as they are can carry a team to the playoffs.
So I'll just say that on the Steelers. My one
story is, and I said this a month ago, Guys,
I think Caleb Williams and the Bears, and specifically just

(07:20):
with Caleb Williams. Now, we've got to wait to Monday
night to see how his opener is. But there are
so many things that are going against Caleb Williams right
now to succeed. And this was the generational talent. This
was the can't miss guy. And not only is he
possibly a miss guy, he's on a franchise that has

(07:41):
never had a guy at quarterback. And he's in a
draft class that was full of quarterbacks that so far
have succeeded, especially the one that was picked right after
him in Jaden Daniels. So there are so many layers
to the Caleb Williams conversation. And now you bring Ben
Johnson into the mix. Who else would you want to

(08:02):
have brought in to work with a quarterback? And if
it doesn't work, I don't know what the Bears do.
But Caleb Williams to me, is the story to start
out the twenty twenty five NFL season.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
It is interesting though we talked about his camp miss,
wasn't Trevor Lawrence can't miss?

Speaker 3 (08:18):
Yeah, But I don't.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
I don't think he's a failure.

Speaker 5 (08:23):
Yeah, Trevor Lawrence's dad didn't say that my kid's gonna
break the rules of the NFL draft and we're gonna
seek ownership of the team and stuff, right.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
And I also, I actually felt like the hype for
Trevor Lawrence was more when he was a freshman at
Clemson than him entering the draft. Granted, Urban Meyer and
Jacksonville were set on taking him number one, but I
would even think, like, I mean, Joe Burrow is coming
off of a Heisman Trophy in a national championship season.

(08:54):
But I don't know if we looked at Joe Burrow
like we put Caleb Williams into this. I honestly, I
felt like we put him into a generational quarterback, not
just all pro caliber quarterback super Bowl winning like generational
is won every ten when every fifteen, when every twenty
five years, And I felt we did that with Caleb Williams.

(09:14):
And now we're about to be one plus year into
the ten year and we could already be souring on him.
That's that's my personal feel.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
I think it's all in this first game. The storyline
is Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen, which one's going to
get to Super Bowl? Oh, they ever get to super Bowl.
You're talking about a guy. You're talking about MVPs, multiple
MVPs with Lamar Jackson, and you know it's it's like,

(09:48):
we could sit there and go, well, Patrick Ewing didn't
make the NBA Finals because Michael Jordan was always in
his way, and the only time they did make is
when Michael Jordan wasn't there. Like that's great and all, okay,
but no one judges Patrick Ewing at all at the
level of Michael Jordan. Matter of fact, in many ways,
by a younger generation, he's kind of a forgotten star
because he just could. I feel like Lamar Jackson and

(10:11):
Josh Allen are godlike figures viewed as top five quarterbacks
in the NFL, and here we are again where you're
gonna have a chance at some point, you got to
get there. That's the storyline of me.

Speaker 3 (10:24):
I will say that on the heels of that, I
find it very interesting, Doug, because I think if neither
of them do it, then it'll be really interesting. But
even if one makes it, that means that the other
one doesn't. And I think that there is a change
happening with that team, like the Ravens, And if they
don't make it this year, it's how many more years
does Derrick Henry have? If the Bills don't make it

(10:46):
this year, It's like, all right, is Sean McDermott really
the guy that you want to be as the head coach?
Like there are those things that I think come into
play in how those teams change, and if neither of
them make it, maybe both teams make changes. But I mean,
I just got done watching the hard Knocks that nobody want,
you know, wanted to watch, and it sure felt like
it was a precursor to a oh my gosh, this

(11:08):
could be the year for the Buffalo Bills, And rarely
do those things turn out that way.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
No.

Speaker 5 (11:15):
If Lamar, though, does fail again, like, is there like
a threshold of how many times you can choke fail?

Speaker 1 (11:25):
It's a great question. Okay, So Tracy McGrady never made
it out of the first round of the NBA playoffs
until he had retired, came back and he was like
a end of the bench guy with the spurs right,
So I don't think that eliminates that. Tracy McGrady like
never made the playoffs as a starter. I made it

(11:48):
out of the first round the playoffs as a starter.
How is that possible? I mean, I know the Yaoming
got hurt a couple of times, but he couldn't make
out the first round is crazy? Crazy? Anyway to answer
your question, how many years do you get? Kind of
in football, it's kind of eternity. You kind of get
to your done, right. Uh, Marino hadn't got to one early,

(12:13):
then never got to one again, lots of There's lots
of guys that have never won a Super Bowl, but
to never get to a super Bowl, no matter how
stacked the AFC is, when he's had some of the
best defenses, he's been a multi time league MVP. Yeah,
I think he would get his whole career. But if
we're honest, it's got to feel like there's like a

(12:34):
three more year window when he should be a favorite
to get.

Speaker 5 (12:38):
That ree, you're gonna give him three more years of choking.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
No, no, three more years where he's a favorite. So
howlds Lamar Jackson.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
Now gosh thirty thirty one twenty. I was gonna say
twenty nine. I don't even know us Sam Google machine,
he's twenty eight.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Twenty eight, Okay, feels.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
Like he's been in the league for fifteen years.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
He's been leaked for a minute now.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
Well, it's also because they're always in it. Yes, yes,
they are always a topic a conversation. I think that
the conversation with Lamar this year is truly like it's
going to be difficult to match what he did passing
last year because his passing numbers were so ridiculous. It
is one of the best passing years we've ever seen

(13:24):
a quarterback have in the National Football League. Just by
the odds, I would say there'd have to be some
sort of regression from that. You're just so, that's that
what I think what I think could be at play here.
But when we're talking about Lamar, like, does he go
into the if they don't win, does he just go
into the Philip Rivers category, because there's no denying on

(13:47):
how good of a quarterback that he is, and he
had an argument to win a third MVPs. Just they're
not getting it done in the playoffs. And I wouldn't
call last year's loss in Buffalo a choke. They didn't
win that game, just like I don't know if the
Bills choked against Kansas City. I just feel they just
didn't win that game. So when we're talking about Lamar,

(14:08):
does he fall from because Rivers was in a class
lower than Brady and Manning and Breeze because he didn't
have the Super Bowl? But I don't think that we
look less of Philip Rivers as a player and calling
him a choker by any means.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
We don't. But I think there are people who do.
Philip Rivers are never an MVP as well. To be
a multi time MVP and to not get to the
super Bowl in a quarterback driven league, yeah, I'd say
probably four years, four or five more years of it,
Jay stew But again, once he hits thirty that the

(14:44):
likely it is. The running gets less and less, and
when you take away the running as a dynamics, he's good,
but he's not elite. Where he's incredibly dynamic is he's
the best running quarterback any of us have ever seen.
He's improved as a The only times that gets marginalized
is when he's in the playoffs. Sam, you got one?

Speaker 6 (15:07):
Sure, Oh there's so many storylines I could hog right now,
but for the sake of time, well let's go over
to the West coast. So there's you know, I think
that the Rams can go as far as Matthew Stafford's
bad back can carry them. I think if he stays healthy,
this is definitely a contender in the NFC West and

(15:27):
for a Super Bowl championship. But you know, he was
late to come back to practice. He's practicing now, but
it's the back end of the aging Matt Stafford.

Speaker 3 (15:35):
When he's healthy, he's fantastic.

Speaker 6 (15:37):
And they got weapons, they got a great line, they
got you know, their their offense should be ready to go.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
I guess my issue is I guess my issue is
it's an interesting storyline. But yeah, we know we hadn't
gotten to what the Lions are. Like the Packers go
for it with Michael Parsons. You feel like last time
they went for it was Reggie White. I don't know.

Speaker 6 (15:59):
I I mean that's the one, the number one around.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Yeah, it is okay on the heels of that, and
I think it's something that we didn't talk about. The
Rams did tell Matthew Stafford to go look elsewhere. Then
they signed him back to a deal, and I believe
it may have been Jason, and I apologize. If it wasn't,
then I forgot who said.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
It, but Keivin Jason, Yeah, right, yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
I apologize to the person that forgot it. But this
is a team that could have signed Aaron Rodgers, right,
that was a possibility this offseason. And if the Steelers
have the season that Jason is talking about that he
thinks and there were wants Aaron Rodgers to have and
Matthew Stafford falls on his face what could have been
with the Rams. So there's that little twist to it

(16:41):
as well, in a run it back sort of year,
because they're going to be in a quarterback market next
year for sure. They have two first round picks. Seems
to be the plan all along. I take Stafford over Rogers.

Speaker 6 (16:53):
He's been in the system a while now, and he's right,
he's he knows McVeigh, he knows the You know.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
What I love is I was supporting your argument and
then that comment kind of like said that they shouldn't.
The point is is if Stafford is injured and it
like falls off, they did have other options at the
position that they chose to not go with. And they
chose to rather go with the oft injured Matthew Stafford.

Speaker 5 (17:22):
So if you're following along hair for the listener, the
Doug doesn't think that Sam's topic rose to the level
of the segment. Dan tried to agree with Sam, and
Sam vehemently went against him.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
You got it, And that, my friends, is the Midway.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
I love you the Midway.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
I mean I got criticized for keeping praised on my producer. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (17:51):
I don't know where that criticism comes from. Uh, it's
it you can't be too effusive.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
Uh, yeah, I don't know. Apparently that's what took place.

Speaker 2 (18:01):

Vera Tucker for the season because of a triceps injury.
Isaiah likely is not likely to play for the Ravens
against the Bills on Sunday night. That's according to the

(20:20):
NFL Network. Mavericks and forward PJ. Washington agreed to a
four year extensor worth ninety million dollars. Tigers beat them
at six' to. Two dug back to.

Speaker 1 (20:27):
You it's The Doug Gottlieb show here On Fox Sports
trader that's The Great Dan. Byer for forty, Years tyrek
has been helping customers find the right tires for how
what where they drive ship fast and free back by
free road desk protection with convenience slation options like mobile
tire slation tyrek Dot. Com the way tire buying should.
BE i will start with the premise THAT i was.
WRONG i thought there's no Way micah parsons they'd agreed

(20:49):
to a, deal but the agent said, no, no, no
we got to fix it. THIS i don't like this.
Deal he wasn't including. NEGOTIATIONS i thought for sure he'd
be a cowboy, forever and now he's a Pack let's
find out What Matt mosley. Thinks CALL ms For Fox,
sports host of The doomsday podcast covering The Dallas. Cowboys,
matt did you honestly believe this was a? Possibility let

(21:11):
alone like?

Speaker 4 (21:11):
It only when it started to get kind of nasty
toward the, end and the only, time like if you
had have called me that week when he was on
that training, TABLE i thought he kind of embarrassed himself
there and during that preseason, game AND i thought HE
i think shot he got. EMBARRASSED i Think schottenheimer was,

(21:35):
LIKE i can't believe we don't have any more control
over this, guy and so he kind of started losing some.
SUPPORT i still think people have rallied Around jerry in the,
organization AND i promise you there's some. Dissenters but what
happens is when you do a deal like, this all
the employees have to rally around and stand up there

(21:57):
and applaud, him, like good, Deal, Jerry you're glad you
were able to get such a good deal. Done SO
i still think it's an embarrassing that it came to
this and that it resulted in a there's some kind
of crazy negotiation Where jerry tried to convince a player
outside of the agent being. INVOLVED i mean, again it's, like,

(22:19):
honestly a good owner should almost be like a good,
investigator like there should be Some randa rights involved or
something like you have the right to an agent like
you should. Not and people, say we're twenty, Five, matt
he's a grown. Man ah, Whatever jerry got him in,
there took advantage of, him and then the whole thing
went sideways because then he on top of, that he

(22:42):
embarrassed the, agent he embarrassed the, player and then the
player sulked around and just kind of made a general
rear of himself for about a month and this is
where we've. Ended and by the, WAY i love being
able just to come on with you via. Phone everybody
these days Stream, no we need you to get on the,

(23:04):
stream AND i get so sick of, That like we
have a, stream but.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
We just you, know like apparently we just didn't think
you were capable of pressing connect to our YouTube. Channel
but that's. Okay Matt mosley joining us is he filibusters on, everything?
Okay SO i honestly agree with. YOU i went back
in and the week before when he was laying on
that train table, PEOPLE i was, like he gotta, go gotta,

(23:31):
Go like there it comes to point where you acting
like a. Clown he's gotta. Go on the other, hand
he's a, dynamic dynamic. Player what does that do for
this year's?

Speaker 4 (23:43):
Roster OH i already thought they weren't, great AND i
guess they act like they're going to be good against the.
Run now we'll. SEE i, MEAN i think The eagles
have a decent running back IF i recall, Correctly so
we'll see about.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
That but they, honestly that's that's Like iowa. Football, Sorry,
Sam it's Like iowa football going like we know our offense,
Sucks but, man can we.

Speaker 4 (24:07):
Punt they've got a good punt game there and they
have for. Years they've got The Big Sy hawk game coming, Up.

Speaker 1 (24:17):
Skyhawk game this, Week Big syhawk's.

Speaker 4 (24:18):
Big, yeah, HUGE i GOT i Got cyclones winning that.
One but, yeah this is, No they're they're. Worse you,
know this is this could be a really good passing.
Offense And i'm, told even even right BEFORE i came
on with, YOU i was hearing more about what The

(24:39):
eagles have in their secondary and it's a it could
be a little. DICEY i, mean they've got some people
they're they're kind of waiting on some. Things and that's
the one real WEAKNESS i think The eagles could have
as their past. Defense so The, COWBOYS i, mean if
they're getting a, SHOOTOUT i don't, know it might be.
Okay but to act like the defense has somehow improved

(25:01):
Without Michael, parsons you have to jump through so many
hoops and just you, know errors in, logic and again
that's What jerry specializes. IN i, Mean jerry can do
that better than. Anybody but, Again i'm with. You it's
LIKE i do think the guy kind of embarrassed. Himself but.
DO i also think he's the best pass rusher in the. Game,

(25:24):
yes and The packers obviously thought so because the guy
ends up getting forty seven million dollars a. Year and
now The packers do what so many years ago The
cowboys did and add A Charles haley. Type yet he's.
Not he's got his head screwed on better Than charles.
Did he just, again he's just kind of a, frivolous goofy.

(25:47):
Kid he's not a bad. Guy he just likes to do,
podcast Which i'm like half Of. America everybody In america
has a, podcast SO i can't, believe you, know that's
become a big talking. Point he irritated his teammates with
his podcast give me a. Break think about these guys
twitching around or whatever you do, now or twitching all
over the. Place SO I i you know the fact

(26:08):
that they act like they're not.

Speaker 1 (26:09):
Twitching if you're, twitching then you might Have tourett's or
you it might be a sign of something. Bad if
you're on, twitch, Okay twitch is a way of. STREAMING
i think when you're playing video.

Speaker 4 (26:22):
Games LIKE i would say you were not a twitchy.
Athlete i'll use it.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
That's actually not. True that's that's where you're like you're
you're you're blatantly taking my skin, Color LIKE i should
be a, SHOOTER i should be a heavy. SHOOTER i it.
WASN'T i was really, athletic could shoot lick it probably
dumb as. Rocks so that most is our guest, Here
Doug Gottlieb, Show Fox Sports. RADIO i Thought auburn pushed Around.

(26:49):
BAYLOR i thought they were too good up.

Speaker 4 (26:52):
Front, NO i was told this would not be. Addressed but,
OKAY i uh, YEAH i mean passing is going to
be elite from The. Bears but that was that was.
Embarrassing they lost their best run defender early in the
game and and it just caved in And Jackson, ARNOLD

(27:13):
i MEAN i had no clue he Was Lamar, jackson
but there was no adjustments and that was embarrassing to
have the whole nation checking The bears out and then
just let a quarterback who was a great high school,
quarterback was not very good AT ou and just let
him run. Wild it was a bad night for The,

(27:33):
bears but they do.

Speaker 1 (27:34):
Have, wait how could you not know how good he
was when he when he A, Debton texas.

Speaker 4 (27:38):
Kid, yeah they just didn't you, KNOW i don't, know
they couldn't tackle he ran wild on. HIM i don't
know they. COULDN'T i, mean, again this guy is he's
a mad. Genius but he he thought too much about,
It like at some point you, Go, okay we're going
to spy him up and we're gonna put somebody and
we're going to tackle this. Kid and he embarrassed them all.

(27:58):
Night and they threw for one hundred and eight. Yards
think about. That that comes. In they throw for one
hundred and eight yards and they beat The bears by two.
Touchdowns although Again Sawyer robertson he is going to throw
FOR i, mean he's you, know he's great and The.
Bears The bears were good in the passing, game but
it was a bad it. Was it was a really

(28:20):
bad night for the. Defense awesome.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Stuff Mos mose can't wait to see that The pokes
play tomorrow, night see The bears play. Again they should get.
Better appreciate you join us here On Fox Sports.

Speaker 4 (28:30):
Radio, yeah that Hass hainy, kid your starting quarterbacker just got.
Hurt he's a family. Friend SO i hated that BECAUSE
i love that kid and his dad's a friend who
played AT, Tcu so, anyway he'll be, okay he'll be.
Back at some.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
Point he went to or his dad, went and then
he's transferred.

Speaker 4 (28:45):
Out, correct he transferred to the. Popes. Y'all Y'all apparently
even though What gundy he was acting, like y'all don't
pay kids, money you did pay this youngster some, money
and so he ended up and still want to pay.

Speaker 1 (28:58):
Money they just don't pay don't Have oregon, money is
what they're.

Speaker 4 (29:01):
Saying that's that's probably that's probably. True But i've liked
the back and, forth and AND i liked That, gundy you,
know ripped his shirt off kind of the other. Love
no coach that's in his late fifties loves getting that
shirt off more Than. Gundy and he showed he showed
off the six pack the other.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
Day there you, Go thanks so, Much, mose you're the.

Speaker 4 (29:19):
Best Okay By Doug.

Speaker 1 (29:21):
Matt, mosley host of The Doomsday. Podcast but, hey let's
just administe this podcast because everybody In america has the, podcast, like,
well you, know we promo your. Podcast speaking of coaches
going back and? Forth byron did you hear this? One Dabo,
Sweeney Brian. Kelly, okay Here's dabbo making an analogy on

(29:41):
how they performed ls you performed in their Lost Saturday
night at home And Death.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
Valley that is a physical.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Group it is a very smart.

Speaker 4 (29:50):
Quarterback they're gonna be a, problem and they got some
explosive dudes and We it was a hell of a
game down the last, play right out of the.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
Gate it's like getting the final. Exam they want a.

Speaker 4 (30:00):
Class they made a sixty, five we made a fifty.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
Eight were? Great, Okay SO i mean, AGAIN i thought
he was very complimentary OF. Lsu does anybody take it
as anything other than?

Speaker 5 (30:17):
Complimentary up to the words sixty, five he's implying THAT
lsu got A d and they got AN.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
F i don't think, again you can if you're getting
caught up in the, numbers that would be. RIGHT i
think what he was saying is they're gonna get way,
Better like that's sixty five of the one, hundred that
by the end of the, year the team's gonna get
to one, hundred whereas there fifty eight to the. HUNDRED
i didn't did you take?

Speaker 3 (30:45):
IT i didn't think the game was as close as
the score, indicated and that's WHY i Think Brian kelly is, Saying,
wait you just think that we were slightly better than you.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
Guys, okay so here's to back up your. Point here's
What Brian kelly said in response to those.

Speaker 7 (30:59):
Remarks we dominated him in the second. Half so he's
either a really good greater for you, know giving himself
a fifty, eight or he's a really hard greater on,
us or he didn't see the second, half which that
might be the. Case he might not have wanted to
see the second.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
Half, okay but they did get to THE lsu fifteen yard,
line the eighteen yard line on second, down they did
have a chance to win the, game is that? Correct?
Right like they turned it over on downs at the
fifteen yard. Line great blitz BY lsu and Club. NICK
i don't know why he rolled out instead of staying

(31:36):
in the. Pocket bad play, call great defensive play golf FROM,
lsu and THEN lsu takes a knee. Twice SO i
would agree with The, hey they were, better and we
could adjust the numbers seventy to fifty, eight, Whatever but
at the end of the, day we're still at the
fifteen yard line at, home a chance to tire win the.
GAME i don't think the game was as close As

(32:00):
i'm agree with. YOU i THOUGHT lsu was. Better despite
the fact they were, Better clemson still had the ball
at their fifteen yard, line two shots at the fifteen
to win.

Speaker 3 (32:09):
The, game tie the game when they were, done.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
Could have won. It, well would you have gone for? Two,
NO i was waiting for that scenario at. Home you
probably don't go for, two, Right but would LSU's defense be?

Speaker 3 (32:21):
Tired, Well i'll tell you if that would be an
interesting question For dabbo considering his team thought that they were,
even because if you thought that you were getting man,
handled maybe you would go for. Two but in that,
SCENARIO i think that he would have kicked the extra.
Point they would have had momentum on their.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
Side so your, Team Brian kelly in this.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
One, Yes, YES lsu had an early turnover again LSU's.
Fault Maybe dabbo put that in his grating that led
to Three clemson. Points but OTHERWISE i felt THAT lsu
was the more complete.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
TEAM i thought ls she was the more complete. Team
they did lose the turnover battle and still won the.
Game they outrushed him like one hundred and eight to thirty. One,
YEAH i, MEAN i think his grading was a little
soft on his team and a little harsh ON, Lsu
but generally it's not like LSU's offense was carving them
up and they did have a chance to win the.

Speaker 2 (33:14):

Allegations THE nba aware of the allegations and have now

Speaker 1 (34:47):
Fascinating this is the old sweetener that people talked about
his uncle wanting and everybody turning him. DOWN i will
say that on social, Media Mark cuban has come out
and Supported balmer and, like, look The aspiration people were
scammers and everybody got. SCAMMED i don't, KNOW i do
know that this is A niche now That Pablo torri

(35:10):
has decided to get into which is kind of this sports.
Journalism here's how the sausage is really. Made this the
second such topic where it did feel like he had
a smoking, gun but nothing came of the.

Speaker 3 (35:22):
First see what THE nba finds out as part of.
This one OTHER nba, note just because we're talking about the,
Association mavericks and FORWARD Pj washington agreed to a four
year extension with ninety million dollars.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Four, years ninety million for a bench player AT Pj.
Washington remember how good they were and how athletic and
switchable they. ARE Pj washington had kind of a breakthrough
season two years ago when they went to the. Finals so,
yeah they continue to just load up on that front.

Speaker 3 (35:49):
Line one baseball note to pass. Along dodgers pushing Sho
Heo tani start back because of an. Illness he's expected
to start against The orioles this. Weekend The dodgers right,
now Oriole, fans as they're beating The padres six nothing
in the top of the, Third your Boy Jackson holiday
with the leadoff home run number sixteen on the. Season it's.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
Huge, yeah he's been, struggling and now he's put. TOGETHER
i think what was, it his fifth multi hit game
in his last six games was, Yesterday SO i think
he's getting straight. Out but this is a fun baseball
season because the second you, think, Okay dodger's got this
thing after sweeping the series against The, padres they've just

(36:29):
kind of been okay. Since As jay stew has pointed,
Out brewers And phillies today as, well huge battle in THE,
nl but this baseball is. Awesome and, then LIKE i pointed,
Out yankees have been really good of late after people
kind of left them for.

Speaker 3 (36:47):
Dead packer's edge Rusher Micah parsons officially listed as limited
in practice today because of that back. Issue.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Yeah i've talked to a couple of doctors off the
record there AND i didn't ask them specifically About Micah,
parsons but there were some people that are, like, well
they got pressure to taking, him you, know to passing the,
physical AND i was just told unequivocally they would not
have signed him to that deal if he didn't pass the.
Physical regardless where they think the back, is they don't

(37:16):
think it's gonna be a long term.

Speaker 3 (37:17):
PROBLEM fifa announced dynamic pricing will be used for tickets
during the twenty twenty Six World. Cup the pre sale
for tickets gets underway next, Week, So, doug you could
be picked in the lottery to watch THE us men's
national team playing The World. Cup but you're not going
to know on how much that ticket price is going
to cost because it's going to depend on. Demand so

(37:38):
you could be paying quite a bit more than you
thought you would if you get your name picked in the.

Speaker 1 (37:41):
Lottery how do they decide it popularity of the.

Speaker 3 (37:44):
Game, yeah they said that they used it in The
Club World cup and that it was a. Success now
there could be matches that nobody really cares about that
will be much. Cheaper BUT i would think that any
of THE us matches are the ones Faturing canada Or
mexico would probably be pretty popular. Sales But i'm not

(38:04):
sure the exact format and how it works.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
Out and, that my, friends is the press bay get
out there and.

Speaker 5 (38:12):
