You see Irvine or UCI if you're a local is
the spot always interesting to me on how mispronounced universities
(00:46):
in California are And I think JASEDU can agree with
me on that one, right and usually it's NCAA tournament
time right with O Calervine. Zero people who have ever
been by are associated with UC Irvine have ever called
it cal Irvine. Cal State Fullarton is in fact cal
State Forarton. There's there's three different state systems for for
(01:09):
your education. In the state of California is cow poly system,
which is kind of in the middle of cal state system.
That's Long Beach State, which is Cal State Long Beach,
Cal State Forardton, uh, San Diego State. So some go
by state Presno State, San Diego State, Sack State, which
is cal State Sacramento, some go by the some go
by the moniker of of cal State Fullarton. Right, So
(01:33):
there there's a bit of a mix there. And then
there's the UC system, which is the harder to get
into academically, and there's U see l A University California,
Los Angeles, you see Berkeley, Cal Berkeley, you see I
you see Irvine, you see Riverside, San Diego, you see
San Francisco, small one right, you see Davis, et cetera,
(01:53):
et cetera. Anyway, always interesting when they're like mispronounced come
NCAA tournament time or or college football time, when one
of the smaller schools will play the U s c
S or the U C l A, there is some
news in college sports. Will continue to wait for Dan
Byer to give us breaking news and whether or not
the packs we get we get clarity on the PAC twelve.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Yeah, by the way. John Ramos had a U C.
I once he had to leave work early.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
It was uh, it hurt a lot too.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Just he was okay the next day. Sorry, So so
we're at a trading gap that it happens.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
What did he do?
Speaker 3 (02:30):
I said he had a U C.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
I I got it, I got it. I was I
was looking at the streen. Sorry, I missed it bad.
That's actually really good, really good. So I thought this
was interesting. So we're trying to figure out if the
Pac twelve goes away today, Bayer will keep us updated there.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
We're watching them go through a walk through.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
They got practiced up coming, John Ramos, huge rams fan,
got to come down, so to Jay stew and of
course that she hears is that of Dan Byer.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Do you guys see this now? Usually we go to
Cowboys camp. When are we going to Cowboys camp?
Speaker 5 (03:06):
This year?
Speaker 1 (03:07):
We're not going to Cowboys TVD, not on the schedule
or t BD TVD. So that's in Oxnard.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
And if you look at Los Angeles and you're like,
where's Oxnard? Look where Santa Barbara is and then look
kind of close to Santa Barbara but not quite a
little past halfway.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
That's where Oxnard is.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Ox Star's actually really close to where the Rams live
and train in Thousand Oaks. Kind of interesting, right that
they come all the way down here. Cowboys go all
the way out there, But cowboys have gone there for years.
They used to be in Thousand Oaks at cal Lutheran
back in the day. There you go, there's a pull
sight of the pat Riley camp, the Magic Johnson camp,
that John Wooden camp that used to be at Cal Lutheran. Anyway,
(03:43):
and Dak Prescott had this exchange of words with Trayvon
Diggs during practice this week where Trayvon Diggs told him
to shut his b a up and I would say,
female dog backside up right, which is like weird considering
(04:04):
he's your quarterback.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
We're on the same team here.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Now I get practice trash talk, I get the backfoot,
but there's a weird energy to it. Here's Dak at
a press conference when asked about it.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Very healthy banter between two teammates. That's a guy that
I spent a lot of time with. We're always going
back and forth, and when you're competing at a high level,
when you're competing and you believe that your side's better
than the other side, and that's mutual and that's iron
and sharpen and iron.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
So words are words.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, I mean like look, words are words and they
don't matter much. But there was an energy of those words,
like just the I don't know, like some guys get
really hot when you call them the B word, right,
that's not the word that you call a dude, especially
if he's the quarterback of your team.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
And then equally weird was.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
That it wasn't like there's a bunch of offense linemen
that grabbed Treyvon Hey too much.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
There was none of.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
That, And so it it makes you think a lot
of things. Maybe it makes you look at Treyvon Diggs
like what are you doing?
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Man?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
That's your quarterback?
Speaker 2 (05:13):
And then maybe it looks makes you look at Dak
and say, are all these guys like the rest of
Cowboys fans where they're kind of like, maybe Dek isn't
the savior that he was deemed to be. And I
think that's a very real thing, a very real thing.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
It's not an extra didn't it Like you could say,
shut your bleep up? But when you add the B
like that, that's another level. You know, if we're just
you play sports. To anybody who plays pick up basketball,
you know, it's very easy to say, you know, shut
your bleep up, but if you go shut your bleep
(05:53):
bleep up takes a little bit more, a little bit
more added to it. And with the just a word
of yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, I mean guy that usually that usually that leads
to some sort of fight or like chest off right
where you like get get all chested up, and then
dudes can be O, yo, man, what are you calling
that too? And it wasn't and I mean like again,
at some point you like Dak and then you also
you don't know what Dak said to him and regret
you know that kind of triggered him, and then you
(06:21):
look at Trayvon Diggs differently. But I do think that
people coming around to my Dak's just a guy is
becoming a real thing in the NFL where people are like, yeah,
just kind of a guy. It doesn't mean he's a
bad quarterback. He's but he's supposed to be this exceptional leader.
And one would think that if a teammate says that
(06:42):
to my quarterback, like and I heard Cowherd say earlier today,
and he's right, do you think for any one second
a teammate's gonna say that to Brady, to Rogers to
zero chance. And if they did, then again Lineman would
be there making sure the guy knew that was that
was not acceptable.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
You know when they lost to the Packers years ago
and Rogers made that amazing throw to Jared Cook. I'm
sure you watch it every morning when you wake up,
Doug and near the Aaron Rodgers Shrine in your home.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yes, well, since you know we've had to change it
because the jersey changed go ahead.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
You know that game was what like thirty four to
thirty one. You know, it's not on Dak's shoulders. Last
year when they lost to the forty nine ers it
was nineteen to twelve. Had two crucial interceptions. There was
also the pass at the end of the game and
the going out of bounds or what it was just
it was just a mess. If you got anything, you
(07:39):
had gotten anything and not turned the ball over like
they did, that's a winnable football game. And I don't
think the Cowboys are better than the forty nine ers,
but on that day they had a chance to beat them.
And I think that game against San Francisco last year
really changed to what you're saying. I think a lot
(08:00):
more people are starting to feel the way that you're feeling,
because I think that there were points where you could
always defend him and look at him as the underdog story.
But when you're in a close game last year and
maybe one of the interceptions was in his fault anyway
through two of them and they lost the game by
seven points in a game where they only scored twelve.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
And I think that and the end of game management
was bad too.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah, although the last play, I mean, poor Zekie Elliott
just getting annihilated on that weird play call, right, I
wonder I don't want to go back to Dallas. He's like,
I'm not going back for that. I gotta watch that
on tape. No thank you, zero desire.

Live from the Tyreck dot Com Studios you're not gonna

Speaker 1 (08:52):
Yeah you are?
Speaker 2 (08:52):
You know what, that's baseball. Thanks for listening to the

(09:13):
you from La Rams training camp. And you know, it
was just John Madden used to always say, well, that's
just football, right. He would just say that's football when
guys were sweating or doing weird guy things, or scratching things,
or there was somebody throwing up on a football field like.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
That, just football. Here's a guy we need to get.
Frank calliendo do. That's football.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
But in baseball, when things are just Baseball is a
sport which is so tied to the stats, historic stats
and season stats whatever that sometimes though, you have these
outlier things that happen it baseball.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
It's time for that's baseball.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
The Chicago Cobs to scoring thirty two runs in there
two games, last two games. That's the most run scored
in two games stretch since eighteen ninety seven. Of all
the teams the Cups have fielded during since eighteen ninety seven,
this one puts up thirty six runs in two games.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
It feels weird, right, that's baseball.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
That's baseball.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
How about this one?
Speaker 2 (10:17):
After signing a three hundred million dollar deal with the
Phillies in the offseason, shortstop Trey Turner has been maybe
the most disappointing free agent this season. One hundred and
six games, he's only hitting two thirty seven, slugging three seventy,
far below his career averages, and he's hitting eighth in
the lineup.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Guy with that speed, eighth in the lineup.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
How do you explain a guy with great speed who
seems to fit the new era of baseball eighth in
the lineup.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
That's baseball.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
That's baseball.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
When Martin Maldonado and Framber Valdez no hit caught it
excuse me? When Martin maldono caught Frame Vardez is no
hitter this week for the Astros against the Guardians. It
gave him three no hitters in his career in fact
Martin Maldonado has caught three of the last five no
(11:08):
hitters thrown in Big League Baseball had explained one catcher
calling three to the last five no hitters by different pitchers.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
That's baseball.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
That's baseball.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Here's Dan Byer. That's Dan Byer.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I've got some baseball to tell you about I do.
Right now, Jason Stewart is on Ranger Watch. Eighth inning,
Texas is on top of the White Sox four to three.
I know I should be talking to so many, but
I'm talking to Jason Stewart, who is now just three
outs away from moving on. Is there in the bottom
(11:47):
of the eighth inning in the survivor pool as the
Rangers try to complete a sweep of the White Sox.
Max Scherzer, in his Rangers debut, struck out nine and
six innings allowed, three earned on seven hits and two
Texas on the verge. Jason Stewart, your comments, I just
I need.
Speaker 7 (12:04):
I feel compelled to tell Doug and the listeners that
Dan and Iron in a survivor pool and we bought in.
There's six hundred players and it was a significant buy in.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
And it's not legal. By the way, we're yeah.
Speaker 7 (12:16):
Yeah, it was all for fun and we're down to
like the last thirty two of six hundred thirty two
in a survivor pool.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Yeah oh yeah.
Speaker 7 (12:25):
So all the Rangers I had to do this week
was win three games and I move on. So this
would be the third win.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
I for the first time ever? Am I seeing those
Cardinals fan. Let's just put it that way. Rangers up
on the White Sox four to three. Phillies. Those Phillies
you just talked about. They beat the Marlins today four
to two. The Royals are all over the Mets, suress
former team nine to nothing in the ninth inning. Baltimore
leads in Toronto to nothing, while the Domindbacks and Giants
currently scoreless in the third inning. I just learned something
(12:56):
that's amazing. I just learned Discover credit card do something
pretty awesome, Doug. At the end of your first year,
they automatically double all the cash back you've earned. That's right,
everything you were in doubled. The cash back from trips,
restaurants all doubled. Seriously, those the terms to check it
out for yourself at Discover dot com. Slash Match the
NBA players is at the National Basketball Players Association released
(13:16):
the statement in opposition of a political donation made to
the presidential campaign of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis by the
Orlando Magic. In a statement, the association said, quote, if
contributions are made on behalf of an entire team using
money earned through the labor of its employees, it is
incumbent upon the team governors to consider the diverse values
and perspectives of staff and players. The Magic's donation does
(13:39):
not represent players support for the recipient. College news and
it's all colleges because we're talking about possible expansion. Big
Dead presidents reportedly authorized Commissioner Tony Pettiti to explore expansion,
with Oregon and Washington as the schools the league may
be targeting. Hall of Fame game tonight in Canton, Browns
and Jets, eight o'clock Eastern time. Mond starts at quarterback
(14:01):
for the Browns, Zach Wilson getting the start for the Jets.
Oh yes, back to you.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
All right, Okay, so this Joe Mixon story. Okay, So
Joe Mixon he took a took a pay cut, and
he said, I see the task at hand that we're
trying to build in order to keep other players here pieces,
sometimes you have to sacrifice. I felt like this was
the year to sacrifice of the Super Bowl team. We
could potentially be We agreed on a number with great
(14:27):
compensation this year with the incentives off my last deal.
I feel like they allowed me to work and be
able to make that money back. So that's what he
told the team's website. Are we buying that as the
altruism of I just want to make sure that we
can we can win, so all take less.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
I don't. I don't buy that, but I can understand
why Joe Mixon did what he did. So I'll just
say that I don't know if anybody else wants to
weigh in.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Well, no, I mean, like what usually happens is they
go to him and go like, look, you got two choices.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
You get cut or you can take a pay cut. Right, And.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
So his new cash value is five point eight million dollars.
That's three million dollars in a decrease from the cash
value of twenty twenty two, but the contract restructure saved
the Bengals four point three million on their cap, so
a it's a team friendly deal and he had a
(15:26):
Pro Bowl season in twenty one, and he amassed twelve
hundred and fifty five yards in fourteen games. In year two,
he reworked. His contract includes four point one million in guarantees,
two million in potential incentives. So I mean, I think
I think it was basically like, look, dude, you're gonna
put yourself out in the free agent market, and you
look in the free agent market and they're getting slaughtered, right.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
I mean, is he better than Dalvin Cook?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
He seems to be healthier right now than Dalvin Cook,
and he doesn't have the potential suspension of Dalvin Cook.
But Dalvin Cook has been a better back, yes, in
his career.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
In Mixon's health is also fair to question if that
were the case and was more of a receiving threat
last year, But when you look at his rushing numbers,
and anybody that plays fantasy football or that had Joe
Mixon on their team knows there was one superb game,
magnificent game. Everything else basically was a disappointment. Now, Samaship
(16:22):
Ryan's now in Denver, so you don't have maybe that
thread of anything. But there is no way that Joe
Mixon is the long term answer for Cincinnati this year.
Seven for him and now twenty seven years old, so
a year away from that magic age of twenty eight. Yeah,
where else would you go? You're right, you're one hundred percent.
(16:43):
Dalvin Cook would be a better option, and he probably
means more to the Bengals by far than any of
the other thirty one teams, even if he isn't giving
them the production that he once did.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Yeah, I mean like there's a litany. I mean, Ezek
Elliott's out there right, who else? Uh what's the name
from from LSU with it was with Tampa? Leonard Fournette
is out there on the market. I mean, there's so
many running backs that are there that mixing is like
I got a spot?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
All right, what's again? Cost benefit analysis?
Speaker 3 (17:16):
All Right?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I don't want to lose three million dollars, but if
this means I get four million guaranteed and I get
a chance to earn back two and oh yeah, by
the way, like you don't just get It's not just
you don't just get money to make the Super Bowl incentives.
You also get a playoffs share and they're gonna make
the playoffs. You get a playoff share depending on how
many games you win the playoffs more money you get.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
But you have swack so aid equity with the place.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
And you you keep making all that money because four
point three is less than seven point three, but it
is more than zero, you know, And it's the only
way you could potentially look at that.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Don't you think there's a point too if you're Jill
Mixon where we're not gonna look at Jill Mixon and say,
you know, Jill Mixon was a great back, but he
never won a super Bowl, Like there's we don't even
talk about that with any position other than quarterback. It's
the only only position. But don't you think in Joe
Mixon's case, if you're sitting there saying yourself, all right,
(18:12):
I probably have max two years left in this league,
realistically maybe three if I stick around here with that
core and that group. That's why I wouldn't totally dismiss
what he's saying, like to go and change and go
somewhere else where there is zero sweat equity, as you say,
and you could easily be disposable, and I might as
(18:35):
well stick around, and it may be worth worth trying
to win that one super Bowl this season that it
would be to go somewhere else and just kind of
latch on. Maybe there is a little to that.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Yeah, that's that's also that's also a very very good point.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
It's kind of like staying, you know, at a job.
You're like, well, my benefits here are good, or they
give us every other friday off. You know, maybe in
the grand scheme of things, you go somewhere else and
you would be new there, but that keeps you around.
Maybe that's what keeps you know, Jill mixing around.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I saw this, let's let's transition to this. This is
Lindsey Hornt.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Of course she scored the only goal against Netherlands, right,
and they didn't score against Portugal. And she said, I'll
just read the quote she said in regards to Carly
Lloyd's criticism. Quote is kind of frustrating for me to hear,
especially knowing this team and knowing how much we put
in every single game, how much preparation we put into
(19:29):
every single game, seeing our trainers, seeing how hard we work.
And again it's noise, and again it's an opinion, and
everyone is entitled to their own opinion. We know how
it goes. But for me, I always wanted to defend
my team and say you have no idea what's going
on behind the scenes. You have no idea every single training,
(19:50):
what we're doing individually, collectively, et cetera. So for anyone
to question our mentality hurts a little bit. But at
the end of the day, it really doesn't matter. I
really don't care. It's what's going on inside of the
team and getting ready for that game, get it ready
for that game. So I just the this is so,
(20:15):
this is so shoot the messenger to me or so
far afield from what.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Was actually said.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
We work hard, we prepare hard, Like Okay, well, she
didn't say anything about how you prepare, did she. No
one said about how hard you work. No one said
about about the preparation you put in every game. You know,
And when she says, it's noise and everyone's in towled
(20:42):
to their opinion. Boy, that one, that one though, that
comment actually and I'm I'm I hope she I don't
think she means anybody, But like Carly Lloyd's criticism feels
a little bit more real, Like if I say what
I see, but I didn't play for the national team,
I'm gonna play in my d and play with some
of these ladies. I mean obviously Carli Lloyd kind of
(21:02):
back walking back some of those comments where I slept
on it and I thought it was a little you know,
I made a like, dude, it's pretty obvious what's going
on here. She said what she thinks, what she feels,
how she thinks the team has changed for the worst,
not for the better, that they have played to that level,
and when the criticism got back to them, like Carli
(21:23):
Lloyd's the one, they went and well, you know, she's
just anybody else now where the easy answer for Lindsey
Horn should be Carly Lloyd was a great player, and
I really value her opinion, and if she doesn't see
(21:44):
the right amount of effort and passion and for considering
how she played with effort and passion, something needs to
change and we're all for going to figure it out,
like that's all you need to say, but instead of
it's just noise and it's really frustrating and she has
to walk back the comments.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Can we hear the comments? I think we did track
them down, So I'm just curious in the tone that
it was said.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
It is noise. Sometimes you hear it, you see it,
and sometimes it's hard to get away from it. But
again it's it's your guys' job to have the opinion,
you know, of our team. You guys are all watching us.
Everyone in the world gets to have their opinion. And
this is it's the World Cup. You know, it's the
biggest stage and teams are better and better some of
(22:26):
the most competitive matches that you know we've been a
part of or we've seen, and you know, you see
some of these massive teams going out of the World
Cup as well.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Yeah, I mean I think she's saying and at the
end she's saying these massive teams going out of the
World Cup.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
She's saying like, look there's more parody. People are catching up.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
That makes sense, but the it's just noise and everyone's
entoiled to their opinion. Is as that that's actually more
a shot at Carly Lloyd than anything.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Kyli Lloyd said.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Yeah, that's part of the gig. I mean, it's you
wonder why guys leave football don't want to go into
the booth. You know, that's like that's actually analysis and
stuff that we want to hear. I don't think that
she was personal at all. There was no personal attack,
but this is, yeah, this is why you don't get that.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
It would be better though it was personal, right, She's like,
oh that Lindsay Horne.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
She's got terrible hygiene. She's always leaving her stuff all out,
like my room with her. She smells, she smells. She
doesn't take care of her body, heright, she's got she's
just got terrible etiquette.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
You know, she eats with her hands.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
I mean that's the real information that I want, Like
who has the worst etiquette, who's the least lady like
of the ladies?
Speaker 8 (23:43):
And by the way, to your point, Doug, when she said,
you know that's what you guys do, that is what
we do. Because I've never played on the US women's
national team, what Carly Lloyd has that one him?
Speaker 4 (23:57):
I hurt my knees news to me.
Speaker 8 (23:59):
But no, she's I don't think you can lump her
in with the rest of the media group.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
She actually was on the team.
Speaker 8 (24:06):
Yes, she has an insight, and I take that's why
she's on the set doing what she does, not because
she's some random person they just found, Like she is
part of that whole.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
So here's here's the big thing.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
If you know, Carly Lloyd's got the stuff to do
this for a while, Okay, if she's.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Muted in tame, when's the next match Sunday. If she's
muted in tame.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
During their next match, then you know somebody got to
her that hey, you got to die this stuff back,
got a dialt back. So, uh, Van Jefferson's going to
join us in in one moment as he comes walking
up as they just got done with the with the
walkthrough there.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
Yeah, hey, when you talk about like why how it
doesn't bother you for a minute and then like, well,
that's just you know, it's just noise. That's it's not
no Obviously it's affecting you a little bit more than
then maybe you would want to put on.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Yeah, it's just it's just noise.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
We've all talked about it and commented on it, and
we're really frustrated by it.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
But it's but it's just noise.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
It's just noise.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Stuck Gallop Show here on Fox Sports Radio is a
fourth year wide receiver for the La Rams course part
of that Super Bowl winning team two years ago.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
He's Van Jefferson.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
He joined us on the Doug goalllib Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
How are you good?
Speaker 9 (25:26):
Good? Doing good?
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Pretty like for walkthroughs and it felt a little bit
more intense than you've been through Seawn's walkthroughs. What's he
like this year's post other years?
Speaker 9 (25:36):
Yeah, you know, I think it's just you know, being
on the details about everything. You know, McVeigh loves everything
about the details, so you know, everybody just coming out
here trying to you know, perfect that and you know
walk those as a part of the game, and you
know before we go to practice, you know, you just
want to script those plays and you know, get ready
for practice.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
When you saw Cooper go down the other day, what
was in your brain? Oh?
Speaker 9 (25:55):
Man, I mean, Cooper's just a great guy. So it's
unfortunate to see that, but you know he's going to
bounce back and be back soon. You know. It's just
something that's gonna you know, that's so small and it'll
get uh, he'll get back quick. So you know, we're
excited for him to get back and do what he does.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Your first two years, there are huge expectations you walk
in as a rookie, huge expectations of the team. Second year,
you guys win to win a Super Bowl, right, and
your role was way bigger, maybe than even you thought
obviously because of injuries around you.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
What's it like?
Speaker 2 (26:22):
This is a weird year, right where people just don't know,
they don't know what to make of your club, and
the division seems like kind of the same thing as well.
What's it like this year in terms of the energy
leading into the camp?
Speaker 3 (26:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (26:35):
I think, you know, it's a lot of unknowns, you know. Uh,
of course last year that we didn't want, you didn't
finish the season that we wanted to. But you know,
we got a lot of young guys. We got a
lot of young talent around us that's gonna come in
and make an impact for us. And uh so I
think it's just a new energy that we have, you know,
just to come up and you know, prove everybody wrong,
you know, and we're just taking it one day at
a time and uh, you know, perfecting that craft now. Son,
when we get to September, we'll be ready.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
So I gotta ask you about that.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
The two minute we talked about with with Less. I
went to the Rams Raiders game, right. I go to
the game and Baker had been there for like five minutes. Yeah,
and he's leading you guys on a two minute drill.
What's for a guy who you played football your whole life.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
What's it like to see a guy do that?
Speaker 9 (27:15):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I think he was
here like a day maybe, Yeah, So it was crazy,
just you know, him coming in and you know, them
throwing them, throwing him into the fire, you know, and
he handled it like a g you know, he's haended
like a straight pro. And you know, he was more
excited than us about the opportunity to go, you know,
to do a two minute drill and to lead a comeback.
You know, I just remember him in a huddle before
we got off the field, He's like, hey, come on,
let's grond, let's grind. So I just knew, you know,
(27:37):
something's going to especially that happened. And you know the
play that I always remember, you know, is been the
Ben's Corona play where he just moss the dB. So
that play right there kind of gave us momentum, and
you know the rest is history.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
It gave you momentum. But you caught the ball to
touchdown with nine seconds ago.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
See wait, see a line up, and I think there
are like fifteen seconds on the clock right, yes, you're
in the twenty three yard line, and they're impressed.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Mankind. Yeah, well, what's going on in your brain?
Speaker 9 (28:02):
I'm like, give me an op. You know. I was
just like, hey, throw it my way, you know cause
you know, like you see, like you said, the corner
was impressed and then I've seen the safety come down
and I was like, oh, it's one on one coverage.
So you know, I just knew Baker was going to
give me an op. And you know, I made the
most of that opportunity.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
What's that?
Speaker 2 (28:16):
What's that feeling like? Like game winning touchdown catch Sunday
Night football? Considering tough year, but what's that feeling like?
Speaker 9 (28:22):
Yeah, that feeling was great? You know, like I said
after the game, you know that my first time ever
catching the game room such sound in history. You know,
I didn't do it in the high school North College,
so this that first time doing that, it was it
was crazy, you know, and just to celebrate with all
my teammates, and you know, this was a feeling I'll
never forget.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
You know that the balls in the air, are you
thinking like, don't drop Oh yeah, for sure drop this.
Speaker 9 (28:42):
In my mind, I'm like you got to catch this.
You know what I'm saying, you might we might not
have an opportunity. They might not the next player might
not come out and play mine cover, So this might
just be the only time you can make the catch.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
There's a ton of dudes out here who nobody knows
who they are. Do you know how many percentage of
the ninety that you actually know their name?
Speaker 9 (28:59):
Yeah, it's thirty rookies. I think I don't know if
I can. I might can name all their names. I'm
not sure, but I haven't.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
I could probably, Man, dudes, what's what? What is it man?
Speaker 4 (29:12):
Dude?
Speaker 1 (29:12):
Or what what do you? What's your what's your go to?
Speaker 9 (29:14):
It's just what's up?
Speaker 3 (29:15):
My man?
Speaker 8 (29:16):
Man?
Speaker 3 (29:16):

Speaker 6 (29:16):
Bro?
Speaker 3 (29:17):
You got my man?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
You got bro? You got dude? You drop dude around here?
All depends on what he looks like. He looked like
a bro.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
He look like a dude.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
You look like my man, my man.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Don't call anyone boss. I can't stand that one though.
No Boss, No, I hate boss Starbucks Boss Boss.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Which is bro better?
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (29:37):
Bro?
Speaker 1 (29:38):
Bro?
Speaker 3 (29:38):
Bro?
Speaker 9 (29:39):
It's up?
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Bro? So up up up? Bro? Bro?
Speaker 1 (29:42):
How Stafford looks.
Speaker 9 (29:43):
He looks great? You know, I think you know he's
you know, he's done a great job in the off season.
You know, just with with everybody. You know, I think
this year he's just more focused than ever. And you
know he's just a great leader of this team, you know,
a great quarterback and you know we go behind him
and so no, he's leading us and he looks really great.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
You say, he's what what is his leadership style?
Speaker 9 (30:03):
You know, just getting on you if you got if
you you know, he's very punctual about what you need
to do. You know, where he needs to line up,
where you have to be, the assignment that you need
to know. So he's kind of controlled of that. And
you know he'll let you know him. That's what you
know you need in the quarterback to you know, let
you know what's going on.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Have you seen the video of Trayvon Diggs and and uh.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
Dak I did see it.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Okay, what would happen if to Stafford or how would
Stafford's reaction be? Or I like my thing was like
no wide receivers, no lineman. If one of your cornerbacks
called him a female dog back end?
Speaker 1 (30:35):
What would that be like?
Speaker 3 (30:36):
Here?
Speaker 9 (30:37):
I don't know matt as at as a competitive do
so I know that you know it'll be some drawing
back and forth and uh, you know he.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Was weird though, like THATK just kind of like okay
through the bottom, like walked away. But I usually you
call somebody the B word, and usually guys they might
not come to blows, but they chested up really really quick.
Speaker 9 (30:53):
Yeah, so I feel like Matt, Matt would definitely say something.
Matt was a competitive due. I can't speak for his
actions of what he do, but I know that he'll
definitely you know, bow up and you know, you.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Know, there's only there's only two ways to know you've
made it with the Rams, right, one is you get
the big contract.
Speaker 7 (31:07):
You know.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
The second part is you don't play in the preseason.
Right are you playing the preseason?
Speaker 9 (31:11):
I have no idea right now, I have no idea.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
Do you want to play in the preseason?
Speaker 9 (31:15):
I mean whatever the coach is.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
Like, it's actually it's like a double win if you
don't have to play, because it means you're good, right,
you matter, right, I guess the other guys it means
they don't matter, right, Like, man, you don't matter.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
We can get hurt, we don't care.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
But like his deal is, if you matter, you don't
play in the preseason games.
Speaker 9 (31:32):
Yeah, I mean I feel like, you know, everybody, I.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
May have played that seed his head though, now by
the way matter do I not matter? But they're writing
it up on the board.
Speaker 9 (31:40):
Yeah, I mean, I feel like it's a great opportunity
for a lot of you know, people to come out
there and play. You know, preseasons is where you can
showcase your talent and you can showcasch your allent to
other teams, you know, and I feel like, you know,
if coach asked me to play, then you're not going
to play. But you know, at the end of the day,
you know, it's all about football and just going after
the play.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Are you glad your dad's out of the division? Oh? Now, Carolina,
But for you know, during your times to the Arizona
I think for pretty much all your career.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
Yeah, uh, I was. It's kind of I'm kind of
glad and know because you know, I like playing against
my dad. I like, you know, the competition we have
during the week of us talking trash back and forth
for each other. You know, now that he's gone, you
call him a bad you.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
And for those that may not know Sean Jefferson, Van
Jefferson's dad, a veteran wide receiver who I can use
in immaculate grid for a couple of teams. But yeah,
now a member of the Carolina Panthers staff.
Speaker 9 (32:30):
Yeah, so he's you know, you know, he loves seeing
his grand baby. So you know, he's kind of booming
that he had to move all the way across the
Carolina So but you know it's great for him. He
loves it. You know, he's from the South and you
know he's happy.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah, he'll be happy once that humidity cuts.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Right right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely, Hey man, best
of luck this season.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
Get get to get Cooper healthy and we can't wait
to see on the field. Yes, sir, thank you, Van
Jefferson quarter fourth, your wide receiver for your La Rams

Jt Romuto has been out of the lineup for a
couple of days to open a cut on his hand
of the night. Here he swings and drives one high
in the here deep to wright, a few of going
Vack Sanchez at the track and that one is into
the Phillies beatped and welcome back, jt Realmuto. I want
to know the pitch swinging a boucher beckhit, Sir Anthony,
He's got it, runs halfway to first, flips to Harper
(34:28):
and the ball games over. Phillies rebound after their Wednesday
night loss. They take the day game in the series finale,
and they take three out of four from the Marlins.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
Are those calls from Philadelphia Radio Phillies Radio Network as
Phillies beat the Marlins forty two. That was our progressive
play today. Progress is making things even easier. They help
you under your home car insurance. Together you can save
on both. One more progressive dot comer called one eight
hundred progressive. Let's get to the press, which is a game.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
It's correct. The Press transitions to something we're calling the
Fame Game today because it's a spin off of Name
that tune. We would play name that Ram or Name
that Charger, and I feel we've been to so many
training games that I've run out of guys to mention,
So now you need to play the Fame Game. These
are hall of famers I'm describing in pro football. The
(35:23):
premise of the game is it's like name that tune,
John or Doug will bid each other down to guessing
the player with number of notes and information, and whoever
gets it right gets the point. If the person gets
it wrong, the other person gets the point. Are you
ready to play? Sure?
Speaker 4 (35:40):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (35:41):
One point on the board, John, we start the bidding
with you in six notes. In naming that hall of Famer.
Speaker 4 (35:46):
I n I named that Hall of famer in five notes.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
I'll name that hall of famer in four notes.
Speaker 4 (35:52):
Hmm, i'name them in three.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Hall of famer.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
No, it's just a faery, Go poor John, Okay, three notes.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
It was, yes, all right.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
This hall of famer led the NFL in passing in
nineteen ninety and nineteen ninety one. He wore number twelve
and was a four time pro bowler. I gave you
the difficult ones. Yeah, four time pro bowler who warn
number twelve, led the NFL in passing in nineteen ninety
(36:27):
and nineteen ninety passing meeting, passing yard, yes, yeah, passer rating,
I believe yep. Renald Cunningham, that's a really good guess.
That is not correct, though not a Hall of Famer.
Jim Kelly is the Jim Kelly is a Hall of Famer.
The other notes were played in the USFL. I think
(36:49):
that would have given it away. I would have went
to four super Bowls. Oh, that would definitely would have yes,
And it was the fourth fastest to throw for thirty
thousand yards and.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
Its four Super Bowls would have been the game.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
Yes, unless he said Frank Reich, who, of course, is
just kidding.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
He went to John's like I've attended Hall.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
Of Famer Frank Reich. All right, two points up? Does
we start the bidding with you at six?
Speaker 1 (37:14):
I can name that hall of famer in three notes?
Speaker 4 (37:19):
Name that hall of Famerdyke?
Speaker 3 (37:20):
All right, his pro career started with the L A.
Rams but ended with the San Francisco forty nine ers,
and he War number eighty? Who is this hall of famer?
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Is Isaac Bruce in the Hall of fame? And did
he start with the He start with the Niners and
he's not in the Hall of fame.
Speaker 3 (37:45):
Brokery has started with the Lams, ended with the forty
nine ers in War number eighty.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
Oh man, that's a good one. That is a really
good one. Okay, So.
Speaker 3 (37:58):
It's why they're bidding when it gets to three. Interesting
before you get a lot more info.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Yeah, I probably should should have Should I have done?
Can we switch that? Can I get a four? Is
that what I can what I can do? Henry tory Holt?
Speaker 3 (38:12):
What was he? War number eighty pro career starting Rams
ended with the forty nine ers. Ricky, Alright, we're gonna'm
gonna go answer. I'm gonna go tory Holt. It is
Isaac Bruce. John John John shook me a part of
the gamelayed one season in la then they moved to
(38:34):
Saint Louis. I couldn't.
Speaker 1 (38:35):
I didn't pull their debts.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
On me enshrined as part of the class.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Yes, he's laft, right.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
Did you know it was Isaac Bruce? I did not.
Oh you did not? All right, So it's two to one.
Speaker 4 (38:49):
I don't think very much.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
For one, it was two questions. The second questions were
two points. This one was worth four. This settled school. Okay,
all right, John Ramos will start the bidding with you.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
Yep, you like four to six, I'll start at five, then.
Speaker 1 (39:08):
I'll go to three.
Speaker 4 (39:11):
Jeez, I'll try to like, let's go. All right, you're
ready to go, dangerous, folks.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
This guy wore number thirty three and finished his career
in Denver. Those are your two notes. A lot of
meat in between those bones. Oh my god, we are
leaving out yes, we're number thirty three. Finished his career
in Denver and as a Pro Football Hall of Famer,
one of nineteen running backs in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
I don't think Roger Craig is in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
No, it is not current rocksive aggressive way of answering
of it's Roger Craig.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
I don't know. I guess what I told you, I guess.
Can I just give this one? If he set a
record that could only be tied but never broken.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
He did the Tony Door set.
Speaker 2 (40:10):
Nd Yeah, yes, Doug, you are the winner of somehow randomly,
I remember that he finished his career in Denver. Now,
Jerry Rice went to Denver for like a minute, but
then it was Seattle where he ended his career.
Speaker 3 (40:23):
Yes, yes, I think he went to the Broncos camp
but never made it out of camp.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
And that is the press. Get out there and pressed.
Speaker 3 (40:31):
That was the press.

You see Irvine or UCI if you're a local is
the spot always interesting to me on how mispronounced universities
(00:46):
in California are And I think JASEDU can agree with
me on that one, right and usually it's NCAA tournament
time right with O Calervine. Zero people who have ever
been by are associated with UC Irvine have ever called
it cal Irvine. Cal State Fullarton is in fact cal
State Forarton. There's there's three different state systems for for
(01:09):
your education. In the state of California is cow poly system,
which is kind of in the middle of cal state system.
That's Long Beach State, which is Cal State Long Beach,
Cal State Forardton, uh, San Diego State. So some go
by state Presno State, San Diego State, Sack State, which
is cal State Sacramento, some go by the some go
by the moniker of of cal State Fullarton. Right, So
(01:33):
there there's a bit of a mix there. And then
there's the UC system, which is the harder to get
into academically, and there's U see l A University California,
Los Angeles, you see Berkeley, Cal Berkeley, you see I
you see Irvine, you see Riverside, San Diego, you see
San Francisco, small one right, you see Davis, et cetera,
(01:53):
et cetera. Anyway, always interesting when they're like mispronounced come
NCAA tournament time or or college football time, when one
of the smaller schools will play the U s c
S or the U C l A, there is some
news in college sports. Will continue to wait for Dan
Byer to give us breaking news and whether or not
the packs we get we get clarity on the PAC twelve.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Yeah, by the way. John Ramos had a U C.
I once he had to leave work early.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
It was uh, it hurt a lot too.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Just he was okay the next day. Sorry, So so
we're at a trading gap that it happens.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
What did he do?
Speaker 3 (02:30):
I said he had a U C.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
I I got it, I got it. I was I
was looking at the streen. Sorry, I missed it bad.
That's actually really good, really good. So I thought this
was interesting. So we're trying to figure out if the
Pac twelve goes away today, Bayer will keep us updated there.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
We're watching them go through a walk through.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
They got practiced up coming, John Ramos, huge rams fan,
got to come down, so to Jay stew and of
course that she hears is that of Dan Byer.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Do you guys see this now? Usually we go to
Cowboys camp. When are we going to Cowboys camp?
Speaker 5 (03:06):
This year?
Speaker 1 (03:07):
We're not going to Cowboys TVD, not on the schedule
or t BD TVD. So that's in Oxnard.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
And if you look at Los Angeles and you're like,
where's Oxnard? Look where Santa Barbara is and then look
kind of close to Santa Barbara but not quite a
little past halfway.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
That's where Oxnard is.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Ox Star's actually really close to where the Rams live
and train in Thousand Oaks. Kind of interesting, right that
they come all the way down here. Cowboys go all
the way out there, But cowboys have gone there for years.
They used to be in Thousand Oaks at cal Lutheran
back in the day. There you go, there's a pull
sight of the pat Riley camp, the Magic Johnson camp,
that John Wooden camp that used to be at Cal Lutheran. Anyway,
(03:43):
and Dak Prescott had this exchange of words with Trayvon
Diggs during practice this week where Trayvon Diggs told him
to shut his b a up and I would say,
female dog backside up right, which is like weird considering
(04:04):
he's your quarterback.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
We're on the same team here.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Now I get practice trash talk, I get the backfoot,
but there's a weird energy to it. Here's Dak at
a press conference when asked about it.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Very healthy banter between two teammates. That's a guy that
I spent a lot of time with. We're always going
back and forth, and when you're competing at a high level,
when you're competing and you believe that your side's better
than the other side, and that's mutual and that's iron
and sharpen and iron.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
So words are words.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, I mean like look, words are words and they
don't matter much. But there was an energy of those words,
like just the I don't know, like some guys get
really hot when you call them the B word, right,
that's not the word that you call a dude, especially
if he's the quarterback of your team.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
And then equally weird was.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
That it wasn't like there's a bunch of offense linemen
that grabbed Treyvon Hey too much.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
There was none of.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
That, And so it it makes you think a lot
of things. Maybe it makes you look at Treyvon Diggs
like what are you doing?
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Man?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
That's your quarterback?
Speaker 2 (05:13):
And then maybe it looks makes you look at Dak
and say, are all these guys like the rest of
Cowboys fans where they're kind of like, maybe Dek isn't
the savior that he was deemed to be. And I
think that's a very real thing, a very real thing.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
It's not an extra didn't it Like you could say,
shut your bleep up? But when you add the B
like that, that's another level. You know, if we're just
you play sports. To anybody who plays pick up basketball,
you know, it's very easy to say, you know, shut
your bleep up, but if you go shut your bleep
(05:53):
bleep up takes a little bit more, a little bit
more added to it. And with the just a word
of yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, I mean guy that usually that usually that leads
to some sort of fight or like chest off right
where you like get get all chested up, and then
dudes can be O, yo, man, what are you calling
that too? And it wasn't and I mean like again,
at some point you like Dak and then you also
you don't know what Dak said to him and regret
you know that kind of triggered him, and then you
(06:21):
look at Trayvon Diggs differently. But I do think that
people coming around to my Dak's just a guy is
becoming a real thing in the NFL where people are like, yeah,
just kind of a guy. It doesn't mean he's a
bad quarterback. He's but he's supposed to be this exceptional leader.
And one would think that if a teammate says that
(06:42):
to my quarterback, like and I heard Cowherd say earlier today,
and he's right, do you think for any one second
a teammate's gonna say that to Brady, to Rogers to
zero chance. And if they did, then again Lineman would
be there making sure the guy knew that was that
was not acceptable.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
You know when they lost to the Packers years ago
and Rogers made that amazing throw to Jared Cook. I'm
sure you watch it every morning when you wake up,
Doug and near the Aaron Rodgers Shrine in your home.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yes, well, since you know we've had to change it
because the jersey changed go ahead.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
You know that game was what like thirty four to
thirty one. You know, it's not on Dak's shoulders. Last
year when they lost to the forty nine ers it
was nineteen to twelve. Had two crucial interceptions. There was
also the pass at the end of the game and
the going out of bounds or what it was just
it was just a mess. If you got anything, you
(07:39):
had gotten anything and not turned the ball over like
they did, that's a winnable football game. And I don't
think the Cowboys are better than the forty nine ers,
but on that day they had a chance to beat them.
And I think that game against San Francisco last year
really changed to what you're saying. I think a lot
(08:00):
more people are starting to feel the way that you're feeling,
because I think that there were points where you could
always defend him and look at him as the underdog story.
But when you're in a close game last year and
maybe one of the interceptions was in his fault anyway
through two of them and they lost the game by
seven points in a game where they only scored twelve.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
And I think that and the end of game management
was bad too.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah, although the last play, I mean, poor Zekie Elliott
just getting annihilated on that weird play call, right, I
wonder I don't want to go back to Dallas. He's like,
I'm not going back for that. I gotta watch that
on tape. No thank you, zero desire.

(09:13):
you from La Rams training camp. And you know, it
was just John Madden used to always say, well, that's
just football, right. He would just say that's football when
guys were sweating or doing weird guy things, or scratching things,
or there was somebody throwing up on a football field like.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
That, just football. Here's a guy we need to get.
Frank calliendo do. That's football.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
But in baseball, when things are just Baseball is a
sport which is so tied to the stats, historic stats
and season stats whatever that sometimes though, you have these
outlier things that happen it baseball.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
It's time for that's baseball.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
The Chicago Cobs to scoring thirty two runs in there
two games, last two games. That's the most run scored
in two games stretch since eighteen ninety seven. Of all
the teams the Cups have fielded during since eighteen ninety seven,
this one puts up thirty six runs in two games.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
It feels weird, right, that's baseball.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
That's baseball.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
How about this one?
Speaker 2 (10:17):
After signing a three hundred million dollar deal with the
Phillies in the offseason, shortstop Trey Turner has been maybe
the most disappointing free agent this season. One hundred and
six games, he's only hitting two thirty seven, slugging three seventy,
far below his career averages, and he's hitting eighth in
the lineup.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Guy with that speed, eighth in the lineup.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
How do you explain a guy with great speed who
seems to fit the new era of baseball eighth in
the lineup.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
That's baseball.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
That's baseball.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
When Martin Maldonado and Framber Valdez no hit caught it
excuse me? When Martin maldono caught Frame Vardez is no
hitter this week for the Astros against the Guardians. It
gave him three no hitters in his career in fact
Martin Maldonado has caught three of the last five no
(11:08):
hitters thrown in Big League Baseball had explained one catcher
calling three to the last five no hitters by different pitchers.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
That's baseball.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
That's baseball.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Here's Dan Byer. That's Dan Byer.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I've got some baseball to tell you about I do.
Right now, Jason Stewart is on Ranger Watch. Eighth inning,
Texas is on top of the White Sox four to three.
I know I should be talking to so many, but
I'm talking to Jason Stewart, who is now just three
outs away from moving on. Is there in the bottom
(11:47):
of the eighth inning in the survivor pool as the
Rangers try to complete a sweep of the White Sox.
Max Scherzer, in his Rangers debut, struck out nine and
six innings allowed, three earned on seven hits and two
Texas on the verge. Jason Stewart, your comments, I just
I need.
Speaker 7 (12:04):
I feel compelled to tell Doug and the listeners that
Dan and Iron in a survivor pool and we bought in.
There's six hundred players and it was a significant buy in.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
And it's not legal. By the way, we're yeah.
Speaker 7 (12:16):
Yeah, it was all for fun and we're down to
like the last thirty two of six hundred thirty two
in a survivor pool.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Yeah oh yeah.
Speaker 7 (12:25):
So all the Rangers I had to do this week
was win three games and I move on. So this
would be the third win.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
I for the first time ever? Am I seeing those
Cardinals fan. Let's just put it that way. Rangers up
on the White Sox four to three. Phillies. Those Phillies
you just talked about. They beat the Marlins today four
to two. The Royals are all over the Mets, suress
former team nine to nothing in the ninth inning. Baltimore
leads in Toronto to nothing, while the Domindbacks and Giants
currently scoreless in the third inning. I just learned something
(12:56):
that's amazing. I just learned Discover credit card do something
pretty awesome, Doug. At the end of your first year,
they automatically double all the cash back you've earned. That's right,
everything you were in doubled. The cash back from trips,
restaurants all doubled. Seriously, those the terms to check it
out for yourself at Discover dot com. Slash Match the
NBA players is at the National Basketball Players Association released
(13:16):
the statement in opposition of a political donation made to
the presidential campaign of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis by the
Orlando Magic. In a statement, the association said, quote, if
contributions are made on behalf of an entire team using
money earned through the labor of its employees, it is
incumbent upon the team governors to consider the diverse values
and perspectives of staff and players. The Magic's donation does
(13:39):
not represent players support for the recipient. College news and
it's all colleges because we're talking about possible expansion. Big
Dead presidents reportedly authorized Commissioner Tony Pettiti to explore expansion,
with Oregon and Washington as the schools the league may
be targeting. Hall of Fame game tonight in Canton, Browns
and Jets, eight o'clock Eastern time. Mond starts at quarterback
(14:01):
for the Browns, Zach Wilson getting the start for the Jets.
Oh yes, back to you.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
All right, Okay, so this Joe Mixon story. Okay, So
Joe Mixon he took a took a pay cut, and
he said, I see the task at hand that we're
trying to build in order to keep other players here pieces,
sometimes you have to sacrifice. I felt like this was
the year to sacrifice of the Super Bowl team. We
could potentially be We agreed on a number with great
(14:27):
compensation this year with the incentives off my last deal.
I feel like they allowed me to work and be
able to make that money back. So that's what he
told the team's website. Are we buying that as the
altruism of I just want to make sure that we
can we can win, so all take less.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
I don't. I don't buy that, but I can understand
why Joe Mixon did what he did. So I'll just
say that I don't know if anybody else wants to
weigh in.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Well, no, I mean, like what usually happens is they
go to him and go like, look, you got two choices.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
You get cut or you can take a pay cut. Right, And.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
So his new cash value is five point eight million dollars.
That's three million dollars in a decrease from the cash
value of twenty twenty two, but the contract restructure saved
the Bengals four point three million on their cap, so
a it's a team friendly deal and he had a
(15:26):
Pro Bowl season in twenty one, and he amassed twelve
hundred and fifty five yards in fourteen games. In year two,
he reworked. His contract includes four point one million in guarantees,
two million in potential incentives. So I mean, I think
I think it was basically like, look, dude, you're gonna
put yourself out in the free agent market, and you
look in the free agent market and they're getting slaughtered, right.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
I mean, is he better than Dalvin Cook?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
He seems to be healthier right now than Dalvin Cook,
and he doesn't have the potential suspension of Dalvin Cook.
But Dalvin Cook has been a better back, yes, in
his career.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
In Mixon's health is also fair to question if that
were the case and was more of a receiving threat
last year, But when you look at his rushing numbers,
and anybody that plays fantasy football or that had Joe
Mixon on their team knows there was one superb game,
magnificent game. Everything else basically was a disappointment. Now, Samaship
(16:22):
Ryan's now in Denver, so you don't have maybe that
thread of anything. But there is no way that Joe
Mixon is the long term answer for Cincinnati this year.
Seven for him and now twenty seven years old, so
a year away from that magic age of twenty eight. Yeah,
where else would you go? You're right, you're one hundred percent.
(16:43):
Dalvin Cook would be a better option, and he probably
means more to the Bengals by far than any of
the other thirty one teams, even if he isn't giving
them the production that he once did.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Yeah, I mean like there's a litany. I mean, Ezek
Elliott's out there right, who else? Uh what's the name
from from LSU with it was with Tampa? Leonard Fournette
is out there on the market. I mean, there's so
many running backs that are there that mixing is like
I got a spot?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
All right, what's again? Cost benefit analysis?
Speaker 3 (17:16):
All Right?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I don't want to lose three million dollars, but if
this means I get four million guaranteed and I get
a chance to earn back two and oh yeah, by
the way, like you don't just get It's not just
you don't just get money to make the Super Bowl incentives.
You also get a playoffs share and they're gonna make
the playoffs. You get a playoff share depending on how
many games you win the playoffs more money you get.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
But you have swack so aid equity with the place.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
And you you keep making all that money because four
point three is less than seven point three, but it
is more than zero, you know, And it's the only
way you could potentially look at that.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Don't you think there's a point too if you're Jill
Mixon where we're not gonna look at Jill Mixon and say,
you know, Jill Mixon was a great back, but he
never won a super Bowl, Like there's we don't even
talk about that with any position other than quarterback. It's
the only only position. But don't you think in Joe
Mixon's case, if you're sitting there saying yourself, all right,
(18:12):
I probably have max two years left in this league,
realistically maybe three if I stick around here with that
core and that group. That's why I wouldn't totally dismiss
what he's saying, like to go and change and go
somewhere else where there is zero sweat equity, as you say,
and you could easily be disposable, and I might as
(18:35):
well stick around, and it may be worth worth trying
to win that one super Bowl this season that it
would be to go somewhere else and just kind of
latch on. Maybe there is a little to that.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Yeah, that's that's also that's also a very very good point.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
It's kind of like staying, you know, at a job.
You're like, well, my benefits here are good, or they
give us every other friday off. You know, maybe in
the grand scheme of things, you go somewhere else and
you would be new there, but that keeps you around.
Maybe that's what keeps you know, Jill mixing around.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I saw this, let's let's transition to this. This is
Lindsey Hornt.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Of course she scored the only goal against Netherlands, right,
and they didn't score against Portugal. And she said, I'll
just read the quote she said in regards to Carly
Lloyd's criticism. Quote is kind of frustrating for me to hear,
especially knowing this team and knowing how much we put
in every single game, how much preparation we put into
(19:29):
every single game, seeing our trainers, seeing how hard we work.
And again it's noise, and again it's an opinion, and
everyone is entitled to their own opinion. We know how
it goes. But for me, I always wanted to defend
my team and say you have no idea what's going
on behind the scenes. You have no idea every single training,
(19:50):
what we're doing individually, collectively, et cetera. So for anyone
to question our mentality hurts a little bit. But at
the end of the day, it really doesn't matter. I
really don't care. It's what's going on inside of the
team and getting ready for that game, get it ready
for that game. So I just the this is so,
(20:15):
this is so shoot the messenger to me or so
far afield from what.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Was actually said.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
We work hard, we prepare hard, Like Okay, well, she
didn't say anything about how you prepare, did she. No
one said about how hard you work. No one said
about about the preparation you put in every game. You know,
And when she says, it's noise and everyone's in towled
(20:42):
to their opinion. Boy, that one, that one though, that
comment actually and I'm I'm I hope she I don't
think she means anybody, But like Carly Lloyd's criticism feels
a little bit more real, Like if I say what
I see, but I didn't play for the national team,
I'm gonna play in my d and play with some
of these ladies. I mean obviously Carli Lloyd kind of
(21:02):
back walking back some of those comments where I slept
on it and I thought it was a little you know,
I made a like, dude, it's pretty obvious what's going
on here. She said what she thinks, what she feels,
how she thinks the team has changed for the worst,
not for the better, that they have played to that level,
and when the criticism got back to them, like Carli
(21:23):
Lloyd's the one, they went and well, you know, she's
just anybody else now where the easy answer for Lindsey
Horn should be Carly Lloyd was a great player, and
I really value her opinion, and if she doesn't see
(21:44):
the right amount of effort and passion and for considering
how she played with effort and passion, something needs to
change and we're all for going to figure it out,
like that's all you need to say, but instead of
it's just noise and it's really frustrating and she has
to walk back the comments.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Can we hear the comments? I think we did track
them down, So I'm just curious in the tone that
it was said.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
It is noise. Sometimes you hear it, you see it,
and sometimes it's hard to get away from it. But
again it's it's your guys' job to have the opinion,
you know, of our team. You guys are all watching us.
Everyone in the world gets to have their opinion. And
this is it's the World Cup. You know, it's the
biggest stage and teams are better and better some of
(22:26):
the most competitive matches that you know we've been a
part of or we've seen, and you know, you see
some of these massive teams going out of the World
Cup as well.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Yeah, I mean I think she's saying and at the
end she's saying these massive teams going out of the
World Cup.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
She's saying like, look there's more parody. People are catching up.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
That makes sense, but the it's just noise and everyone's
entoiled to their opinion. Is as that that's actually more
a shot at Carly Lloyd than anything.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Kyli Lloyd said.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Yeah, that's part of the gig. I mean, it's you
wonder why guys leave football don't want to go into
the booth. You know, that's like that's actually analysis and
stuff that we want to hear. I don't think that
she was personal at all. There was no personal attack,
but this is, yeah, this is why you don't get that.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
It would be better though it was personal, right, She's like,
oh that Lindsay Horne.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
She's got terrible hygiene. She's always leaving her stuff all out,
like my room with her. She smells, she smells. She
doesn't take care of her body, heright, she's got she's
just got terrible etiquette.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
You know, she eats with her hands.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
I mean that's the real information that I want, Like
who has the worst etiquette, who's the least lady like
of the ladies?
Speaker 8 (23:43):
And by the way, to your point, Doug, when she said,
you know that's what you guys do, that is what
we do. Because I've never played on the US women's
national team, what Carly Lloyd has that one him?
Speaker 4 (23:57):
I hurt my knees news to me.
Speaker 8 (23:59):
But no, she's I don't think you can lump her
in with the rest of the media group.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
She actually was on the team.
Speaker 8 (24:06):
Yes, she has an insight, and I take that's why
she's on the set doing what she does, not because
she's some random person they just found, Like she is
part of that whole.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
So here's here's the big thing.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
If you know, Carly Lloyd's got the stuff to do
this for a while, Okay, if she's.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Muted in tame, when's the next match Sunday. If she's
muted in tame.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
During their next match, then you know somebody got to
her that hey, you got to die this stuff back,
got a dialt back. So, uh, Van Jefferson's going to
join us in in one moment as he comes walking
up as they just got done with the with the
walkthrough there.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
Yeah, hey, when you talk about like why how it
doesn't bother you for a minute and then like, well,
that's just you know, it's just noise. That's it's not
no Obviously it's affecting you a little bit more than
then maybe you would want to put on.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Yeah, it's just it's just noise.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
We've all talked about it and commented on it, and
we're really frustrated by it.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
But it's but it's just noise.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
It's just noise.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Stuck Gallop Show here on Fox Sports Radio is a
fourth year wide receiver for the La Rams course part
of that Super Bowl winning team two years ago.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
He's Van Jefferson.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
He joined us on the Doug goalllib Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
How are you good?
Speaker 9 (25:26):
Good? Doing good?
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Pretty like for walkthroughs and it felt a little bit
more intense than you've been through Seawn's walkthroughs. What's he
like this year's post other years?
Speaker 9 (25:36):
Yeah, you know, I think it's just you know, being
on the details about everything. You know, McVeigh loves everything
about the details, so you know, everybody just coming out
here trying to you know, perfect that and you know
walk those as a part of the game, and you
know before we go to practice, you know, you just
want to script those plays and you know, get ready
for practice.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
When you saw Cooper go down the other day, what
was in your brain? Oh?
Speaker 9 (25:55):
Man, I mean, Cooper's just a great guy. So it's
unfortunate to see that, but you know he's going to
bounce back and be back soon. You know. It's just
something that's gonna you know, that's so small and it'll
get uh, he'll get back quick. So you know, we're
excited for him to get back and do what he does.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Your first two years, there are huge expectations you walk
in as a rookie, huge expectations of the team. Second year,
you guys win to win a Super Bowl, right, and
your role was way bigger, maybe than even you thought
obviously because of injuries around you.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
What's it like?
Speaker 2 (26:22):
This is a weird year, right where people just don't know,
they don't know what to make of your club, and
the division seems like kind of the same thing as well.
What's it like this year in terms of the energy
leading into the camp?
Speaker 3 (26:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (26:35):
I think, you know, it's a lot of unknowns, you know. Uh,
of course last year that we didn't want, you didn't
finish the season that we wanted to. But you know,
we got a lot of young guys. We got a
lot of young talent around us that's gonna come in
and make an impact for us. And uh so I
think it's just a new energy that we have, you know,
just to come up and you know, prove everybody wrong,
you know, and we're just taking it one day at
a time and uh, you know, perfecting that craft now. Son,
when we get to September, we'll be ready.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
So I gotta ask you about that.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
The two minute we talked about with with Less. I
went to the Rams Raiders game, right. I go to
the game and Baker had been there for like five minutes. Yeah,
and he's leading you guys on a two minute drill.
What's for a guy who you played football your whole life.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
What's it like to see a guy do that?
Speaker 9 (27:15):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I think he was
here like a day maybe, Yeah, So it was crazy,
just you know, him coming in and you know, them
throwing them, throwing him into the fire, you know, and
he handled it like a g you know, he's haended
like a straight pro. And you know, he was more
excited than us about the opportunity to go, you know,
to do a two minute drill and to lead a comeback.
You know, I just remember him in a huddle before
we got off the field, He's like, hey, come on,
let's grond, let's grind. So I just knew, you know,
(27:37):
something's going to especially that happened. And you know the
play that I always remember, you know, is been the
Ben's Corona play where he just moss the dB. So
that play right there kind of gave us momentum, and
you know the rest is history.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
It gave you momentum. But you caught the ball to
touchdown with nine seconds ago.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
See wait, see a line up, and I think there
are like fifteen seconds on the clock right, yes, you're
in the twenty three yard line, and they're impressed.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Mankind. Yeah, well, what's going on in your brain?
Speaker 9 (28:02):
I'm like, give me an op. You know. I was
just like, hey, throw it my way, you know cause
you know, like you see, like you said, the corner
was impressed and then I've seen the safety come down
and I was like, oh, it's one on one coverage.
So you know, I just knew Baker was going to
give me an op. And you know, I made the
most of that opportunity.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
What's that?
Speaker 2 (28:16):
What's that feeling like? Like game winning touchdown catch Sunday
Night football? Considering tough year, but what's that feeling like?
Speaker 9 (28:22):
Yeah, that feeling was great? You know, like I said
after the game, you know that my first time ever
catching the game room such sound in history. You know,
I didn't do it in the high school North College,
so this that first time doing that, it was it
was crazy, you know, and just to celebrate with all
my teammates, and you know, this was a feeling I'll
never forget.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
You know that the balls in the air, are you
thinking like, don't drop Oh yeah, for sure drop this.
Speaker 9 (28:42):
In my mind, I'm like you got to catch this.
You know what I'm saying, you might we might not
have an opportunity. They might not the next player might
not come out and play mine cover, So this might
just be the only time you can make the catch.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
There's a ton of dudes out here who nobody knows
who they are. Do you know how many percentage of
the ninety that you actually know their name?
Speaker 9 (28:59):
Yeah, it's thirty rookies. I think I don't know if
I can. I might can name all their names. I'm
not sure, but I haven't.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
I could probably, Man, dudes, what's what? What is it man?
Speaker 4 (29:12):
Dude?
Speaker 1 (29:12):
Or what what do you? What's your what's your go to?

Speaker 3 (29:26):

Speaker 9 (29:39):

Speaker 3 (29:39):
Bro? So up up up? Bro? Bro?
Speaker 1 (29:42):
How Stafford looks.
Speaker 9 (29:43):
He looks great? You know, I think you know he's
you know, he's done a great job in the off season.
You know, just with with everybody. You know, I think
this year he's just more focused than ever. And you
know he's just a great leader of this team, you know,
a great quarterback and you know we go behind him
and so no, he's leading us and he looks really great.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
You say, he's what what is his leadership style?
Speaker 9 (30:03):
You know, just getting on you if you got if
you you know, he's very punctual about what you need
to do. You know, where he needs to line up,
where you have to be, the assignment that you need
to know. So he's kind of controlled of that. And
you know he'll let you know him. That's what you
know you need in the quarterback to you know, let
you know what's going on.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Have you seen the video of Trayvon Diggs and and uh.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
Dak I did see it.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Okay, what would happen if to Stafford or how would
Stafford's reaction be? Or I like my thing was like
no wide receivers, no lineman. If one of your cornerbacks
called him a female dog back end?
Speaker 1 (30:35):
What would that be like?
Speaker 3 (30:36):
Here?
Speaker 9 (30:37):
I don't know matt as at as a competitive do
so I know that you know it'll be some drawing
back and forth and uh, you know he.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Was weird though, like THATK just kind of like okay
through the bottom, like walked away. But I usually you
call somebody the B word, and usually guys they might
not come to blows, but they chested up really really quick.
Speaker 9 (30:53):
Yeah, so I feel like Matt, Matt would definitely say something.
Matt was a competitive due. I can't speak for his
actions of what he do, but I know that he'll
definitely you know, bow up and you know, you.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Know, there's only there's only two ways to know you've
made it with the Rams, right, one is you get
the big contract.
Speaker 7 (31:07):
You know.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
The second part is you don't play in the preseason.
Right are you playing the preseason?
Speaker 9 (31:11):
I have no idea right now, I have no idea.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
Do you want to play in the preseason?
Speaker 9 (31:15):
I mean whatever the coach is.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
Like, it's actually it's like a double win if you
don't have to play, because it means you're good, right,
you matter, right, I guess the other guys it means
they don't matter, right, Like, man, you don't matter.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
We can get hurt, we don't care.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
But like his deal is, if you matter, you don't
play in the preseason games.
Speaker 9 (31:32):
Yeah, I mean I feel like, you know, everybody, I.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
May have played that seed his head though, now by
the way matter do I not matter? But they're writing
it up on the board.
Speaker 9 (31:40):
Yeah, I mean, I feel like it's a great opportunity
for a lot of you know, people to come out
there and play. You know, preseasons is where you can
showcase your talent and you can showcasch your allent to
other teams, you know, and I feel like, you know,
if coach asked me to play, then you're not going
to play. But you know, at the end of the day,
you know, it's all about football and just going after
the play.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Are you glad your dad's out of the division? Oh? Now, Carolina,
But for you know, during your times to the Arizona
I think for pretty much all your career.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
Yeah, uh, I was. It's kind of I'm kind of
glad and know because you know, I like playing against
my dad. I like, you know, the competition we have
during the week of us talking trash back and forth
for each other. You know, now that he's gone, you
call him a bad you.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
And for those that may not know Sean Jefferson, Van
Jefferson's dad, a veteran wide receiver who I can use
in immaculate grid for a couple of teams. But yeah,
now a member of the Carolina Panthers staff.
Speaker 9 (32:30):
Yeah, so he's you know, you know, he loves seeing
his grand baby. So you know, he's kind of booming
that he had to move all the way across the
Carolina So but you know it's great for him. He
loves it. You know, he's from the South and you
know he's happy.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah, he'll be happy once that humidity cuts.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Right right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely, Hey man, best
of luck this season.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
Get get to get Cooper healthy and we can't wait
to see on the field. Yes, sir, thank you, Van
Jefferson quarter fourth, your wide receiver for your La Rams

Speaker 11 (34:07):
Jt Romuto has been out of the lineup for a
couple of days to open a cut on his hand
of the night. Here he swings and drives one high
in the here deep to wright, a few of going
Vack Sanchez at the track and that one is into
the Phillies beatped and welcome back, jt Realmuto. I want
to know the pitch swinging a boucher beckhit, Sir Anthony,
He's got it, runs halfway to first, flips to Harper
(34:28):
and the ball games over. Phillies rebound after their Wednesday
night loss. They take the day game in the series finale,
and they take three out of four from the Marlins.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
Are those calls from Philadelphia Radio Phillies Radio Network as
Phillies beat the Marlins forty two. That was our progressive
play today. Progress is making things even easier. They help
you under your home car insurance. Together you can save
on both. One more progressive dot comer called one eight
hundred progressive. Let's get to the press, which is a game.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
It's correct. The Press transitions to something we're calling the
Fame Game today because it's a spin off of Name
that tune. We would play name that Ram or Name
that Charger, and I feel we've been to so many
training games that I've run out of guys to mention,
So now you need to play the Fame Game. These
are hall of famers I'm describing in pro football. The
(35:23):
premise of the game is it's like name that tune,
John or Doug will bid each other down to guessing
the player with number of notes and information, and whoever
gets it right gets the point. If the person gets
it wrong, the other person gets the point. Are you
ready to play? Sure?
Speaker 4 (35:40):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (35:41):
One point on the board, John, we start the bidding
with you in six notes. In naming that hall of Famer.
Speaker 4 (35:46):
I n I named that Hall of famer in five notes.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
I'll name that hall of famer in four notes.
Speaker 4 (35:52):
Hmm, i'name them in three.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Hall of famer.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
No, it's just a faery, Go poor John, Okay, three notes.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
It was, yes, all right.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
This hall of famer led the NFL in passing in
nineteen ninety and nineteen ninety one. He wore number twelve
and was a four time pro bowler. I gave you
the difficult ones. Yeah, four time pro bowler who warn
number twelve, led the NFL in passing in nineteen ninety
(36:27):
and nineteen ninety passing meeting, passing yard, yes, yeah, passer rating,
I believe yep. Renald Cunningham, that's a really good guess.
That is not correct, though not a Hall of Famer.
Jim Kelly is the Jim Kelly is a Hall of Famer.
The other notes were played in the USFL. I think
(36:49):
that would have given it away. I would have went
to four super Bowls. Oh, that would definitely would have yes,
And it was the fourth fastest to throw for thirty
thousand yards and.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
Its four Super Bowls would have been the game.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
Yes, unless he said Frank Reich, who, of course, is
just kidding.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
He went to John's like I've attended Hall.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
Of Famer Frank Reich. All right, two points up? Does
we start the bidding with you at six?
Speaker 1 (37:14):
I can name that hall of famer in three notes?
Speaker 4 (37:19):
Name that hall of Famerdyke?
Speaker 3 (37:20):
All right, his pro career started with the L A.
Rams but ended with the San Francisco forty nine ers,
and he War number eighty? Who is this hall of famer?
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Is Isaac Bruce in the Hall of fame? And did
he start with the He start with the Niners and
he's not in the Hall of fame.
Speaker 3 (37:45):
Brokery has started with the Lams, ended with the forty
nine ers in War number eighty.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
Oh man, that's a good one. That is a really
good one. Okay, So.
Speaker 3 (37:58):
It's why they're bidding when it gets to three. Interesting
before you get a lot more info.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Yeah, I probably should should have Should I have done?
Can we switch that? Can I get a four? Is
that what I can what I can do? Henry tory Holt?
Speaker 3 (38:12):
What was he? War number eighty pro career starting Rams
ended with the forty nine ers. Ricky, Alright, we're gonna'm
gonna go answer. I'm gonna go tory Holt. It is
Isaac Bruce. John John John shook me a part of
the gamelayed one season in la then they moved to
(38:34):
Saint Louis. I couldn't.
Speaker 1 (38:35):
I didn't pull their debts.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
On me enshrined as part of the class.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Yes, he's laft, right.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
Did you know it was Isaac Bruce? I did not.
Oh you did not? All right, So it's two to one.
Speaker 4 (38:49):
I don't think very much.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
For one, it was two questions. The second questions were
two points. This one was worth four. This settled school. Okay,
all right, John Ramos will start the bidding with you.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
Yep, you like four to six, I'll start at five, then.
Speaker 1 (39:08):
I'll go to three.
Speaker 4 (39:11):
Jeez, I'll try to like, let's go. All right, you're
ready to go, dangerous, folks.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
This guy wore number thirty three and finished his career
in Denver. Those are your two notes. A lot of
meat in between those bones. Oh my god, we are
leaving out yes, we're number thirty three. Finished his career
in Denver and as a Pro Football Hall of Famer,
one of nineteen running backs in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
I don't think Roger Craig is in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
No, it is not current rocksive aggressive way of answering
of it's Roger Craig.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
I don't know. I guess what I told you, I guess.
Can I just give this one? If he set a
record that could only be tied but never broken.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
He did the Tony Door set.
Speaker 2 (40:10):
Nd Yeah, yes, Doug, you are the winner of somehow randomly,
I remember that he finished his career in Denver. Now,
Jerry Rice went to Denver for like a minute, but
then it was Seattle where he ended his career.
Speaker 3 (40:23):
Yes, yes, I think he went to the Broncos camp
but never made it out of camp.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
And that is the press. Get out there and pressed.
Speaker 3 (40:31):
That was the press.
