(00:53):
was a huge day.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
And night said quiet day, no you today.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
But I have to say this because the the inner
coach in me is coming out. It is painful, painful
watching the Guardians. These first two games of the Alcs
just throw up on themselves defensively, the wild pitches in
Game one, the errors tonight. It's it's really difficult to
(01:19):
watch bobble babble in right field. After the Rizzo double,
he's gonna go.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
He should probably shouldn't have been held up to begin with,
so they got a gift. Yeah, And then trying to
pick the ball up with his bare hand bobbles and
it's like, all right, go walk home now is wow?
Speaker 3 (01:36):
It's just it's one after another.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Like I thought, Game one after the wild pitches, okay,
that that's really difficult. Anytime you watch a pitcher have
that many wild pitches, you wonder about them mentally, where
they are.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
That's that's a tough, tough way.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
But then tonight you start off dropping the fly ball
run scores and now this errors put another run on
the board. Like this is this is painful to watch.
This is where I would say, I would say the
girls after the game, all right, don't even bring your
bats the next practice. Don't even bring your bats. We're
not gonna hit. We're not not don't even bring your bats.
Just get ready, get ready. We're gonna we're gonna run,
(02:09):
and then we're gonna field, and we're gonna be in the.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Field again, and then we're gonna run again.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
It wouldn't be it's punished. It would just be we're
gonna run. To warm up, and then we're gonna be
in the field for the entire practice. Just bring your gloves,
don't you No, no no, don't bring your bats. Don't
bring no, no, no, no, no no. I'm not gonna change
my mind.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Don't bring your bats. We're just gonna be in the
field now.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
See, because if you give them the conditioning extra, they'll
remember it and they'll be in better shape for the
next time they have.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
To go for Yeah, softball, you do, you can run.
What do you need?
Speaker 1 (02:37):
It's not it's not a it's all right. That's why
like baseball so much. I don't have to run before.
Like football, you had to run so much like it.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Hated it. But this is a tough thing, right.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Is that you talked about being at the game yesterday
and the excitement and all the people around kind of
asking dopey questions. Right the lady that asked, it's just done.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
We go to the World Series, And I said, yes,
if they win, you have the World Series, you play
the Yankees, you beat them, you play the Guardians.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
That's out works. I have no doubts.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
People watching the first two games of this series, maybe
they're starting to date. Maybe significant others that got sucked
in because you know, the Yankees are playing for some stakes.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
What are we gonna do? I'm watch the Yankees.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Let's watch maybe, but hey, you know it's important to you.
I'm gonna sit and watch. The question is, wait, the Guardians.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Are supposed to be one of the best teams.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Are they supposed to be dropping the ball like that? No,
it's a strategy. When you drop a ball like that?
Does that get the other team? Do they get off
their gat? Does that help?
Speaker 3 (03:35):
No? No, it doesn't.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Is this like, oh, it's like is because I heard
about this in sport? Like there's like a lot of
faking going on, Like they fake they make the play go. No,
there's no faking and there's no faking and catching the ball,
there's no no.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
See you took that down a deep dark path and
we're only five minutes into the show talking about faking things.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
There's no faking. Dare you?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Hey, who's talking about faking? I thought we were having
a right you wanted to come over and just watch
the Yankees? I thought, wait a minute, what's going on?
Escalated quickly right now. Seventh inning, the Guardians trail the
Yankees four to two runs on the board for the
Yankees due to error and misplays in the field. Again,
you throw in the get the runesday scored in Game
one because of the wild pitches and the guardians just
(04:14):
they're just throwing up on themselves. It's like they woke
up in the morning. I don't feel good because I
shouldn't have had all those wings last night. In the front,
I go right to the bathroom and that guy. I
mean not to give you a bad vision, but guardians
are I understand, meeting a lot of wings.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Then to the back.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
I mean, there was a lot of sports on a Monday,
that is, I mean, especially in New York.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Right, we went down the list. Everybody played.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
So if you were indulging in the food and beverage
a little bit for each game, I mean, you committed
one of the seven deadly sins gluttony, you're paying for
it the next morning.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, this has been a good three day run of
New York sports. Owning the story, you go back to Okay,
Mets Dodgers Game one of the NLCS, and an hour
after that started Sunday night. You had the Giant Sun
Sunday Night football. Going to the next day you had
Mets Dodgers at one o'clock. Then you had the Yankees
play Game one of the Alcs against the Guardians at four.
(05:08):
Then you had the Jets on Monday Night football last night.
Now you come in today, you wake up, the Jets,
get Devontae Adams, and the Yankees are on.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Now. It's like it's been three days of all New York.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
It's like New York is like, hey, you give us
his new cycle. We're gonna keep it, okay, just so
you know, we're not giving it back. All right, We're
gonna find some kind of crazy ass trade you made themorrow.
We're gonna trade Dable for something else. Maybe we fire
him and bring him Belichick or something up. We do something,
because we got to keep this train moving, okay. I
mean we got to mention the doll We got game
trade tomorrow night right here, So it's okay, but we
need something else, right, so we have so we're gonna.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Do something else.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
And the Giants really not been pulling their weight right
all these other teams and we've been there, so the
Giants gotta do something here. I don't know, maybe bringing
Phil Soons back to play quarterback.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
I don't know. I gotta say this.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
With all of that's gone on in New York sports,
Malik Daghbors has gotten off easy. Well, he's going to
the college, going to the strip club, all of those
things that he's filmed doing while in concussion protocol, and
then miss is another game. Yeah, after being out and
about Brian Dable being asked about it looked like you
wanted to punch the reporter in the face, like, really.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Still don't feel good guy to do this?
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Sorry, still feel good. The strobe lights at the strip
club probably did not help me.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
He's the He's the He's the kid who wakes up
in the morning and tells his pets, I really, I
can't go to school today. I feel aboud, I got
a sore throat, I'm sick. I don't feel good. I'm tired. Okay,
take it. And then three point thirty when school over
and everybody's out playing. Hey, you know, I feel pretty good.
I think I slept all day. I can go on playing.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
I go up, No, I'm going playing those sorry, Lacey.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Yeah, And I can go to school tomorrow. Yeah no, no,
I can go tomorrow. And then the next time I
think I pushed it too much going out to play
in the afternoon. Uh, but yes, the big story of
the day the Jets get Davante Adams. First of all,
I want to tell you I am from the future.
What did I say last night after the game.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Of Inspirations a stinky globe?
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Davante Adams is not a Jet by Wednesday, I will
be extremely surprised.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Yeah, I mean it was the meeting of the distress property,
as we've discussed for a decade on the show. Right, Yeah,
I've got something, change of circumstance, job loss, marital status,
all of.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
These things, my kids going to college. I need money fast,
So here take what I got.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Meanwhile, on the other side, we lost, and I'm throwing
this wide receiver that we brought in under the bus.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Look, so I gotta do something. What did I tell
you last night?
Speaker 1 (07:19):
The play that stands for the Jets last three weeks
is Mike Williams wide open downfield with two minutes left,
and he slips and falls, and Aaron Rodgers says, yeah,
he ran the wrong right.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Now, here's the red line, and let's explain that. I
mean the ex the line line.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
The red line here is The Red Line's a nice.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
L line that you can take in Chicago to get
all over the city.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
You know, how come in movies everybody lives near the
L like there's got to be places in Chicago.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
Not but every time someone lives all the train. But
you know what, you must live right outside the L
It's part. It's part of the fabric of Chicago. And
one of the things I miss about it.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Is that is true. But you are only a couple
of minutes. He lives right next to the Statue of Liberty. Oh,
it's right outside. Not an island, no, no, But.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
With Chicago as you are on the grid and you
can get a train pretty much anywhere in the everybody
seems to live right on the path, right outside.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
The right now.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
But it makes for a good ye like the Blues Brothers.
That's the L train. Hey, he's here in Chicago.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
But let me give you some convenient plot device. Let
me give you something shocking and different on Davanta teams. Okay,
he's gonna suck. No, no, no, no, no, that take
what do you do it, dude, I'm doubling down. I
have no doubt that the Jets are going to be
good eventually. Okay, good, I have no doubt. But let
me just say that double because I was talking to
(08:41):
this my friend Heath today. He's a big Jets fan.
And and.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
No, uh, it's it's he it's actually Heathcliff slow him.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Yes, you're right, oh wow, and uh and and the
whole thing coming around with this is that, Okay, I
knew they were getting I knew they had to. You
saw last night, three games in a row they lost
where they had the ball the last drive and they
couldn't get in the end zone. Right, they stink in
the red zone. Aaron Rodgers said it last night. Williams
slips down, doesn't run the right route. You knew, I
said it has to happen. And boom, you wake up
(09:11):
today and suddenly, hey, I'm hanging out. I'm on McAfee
with Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
They I'm a Jets, see, I know, my goodness right,
And it's like they had a step brothers, like sleepover.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
They built the bunks, beds and everything.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
And before I tell you how good the Jets are
going to be, let me let me just tell you
this because this was my first reaction. Trust me, the
Jets are going to be just fine. Yes, we'll get
into it. But let me say what I'm gonna say.
You jerks, Okay, you guys have to say sorry.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
So we're talking about and I said, and I was like,
you know, that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Is like after last night, I went home after the
show and I just said, Okay, the Jets, they just stink. Right,
they're two and four. It's not working. Whatever they have
going on, they have the changes. I have no doubt
they'll get it going better as the season goes on.
But there's too many moving parts. Okay, if they stink,
they stink. They're already two in for what does their
record need to be to make the player gotta go
eight and three? Right?
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Okay? So I I had I had gone home last
night going okay, it is what it is.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
All my energy needs to be on the Mets and
we're gonna we're gonna fly me over the Jets to
the Knicks.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Right, So all good? And then I wake up today the.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Dogs, and and then I wake up today and the
Jets get Davante Adamsay, don't even have to give up
the second round pick. It's a third round pick, and
they're gonna pay them money and great that what did
I say?
Speaker 3 (10:30):
You pay the money.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
You figure out the money after you're all in on
the season with Rogers, go gain and I wake up
and I wake up today and I see this.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
And I and I and I.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
You know, this is the worst thing that the Jets do,
the worst thing, because what they do is they give
you hope all the time, just when I just when
I've accepted, hey, we're gonna stink. I've had two years
of Rogers, Rogers, Rogers. He gets hurt all year last year, right, okay,
(11:00):
but he's coming back now. Everything looks great. All right,
we start out easy part of the schedule. We're two
and four. We fire our head coach, right, it is.
It is awful.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
What are we gonna do? Okay?
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You know what?
Speaker 1 (11:10):
All right, I don't hope anymore. They're gonna stink Mets
Nicks whatever it is. No, no, no, Now, hey, guess
what you got hope. They sucked you back because we
just brought in a great wide receipt. Its horror, that's
what it is.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Hamstring.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
He's better on one hamstring than half the guys I
have on two hamstrings. That's fine, it's fine. And that's
the one because now it's okay. Now I'm sucked back
in when I had made that break.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Man, and you go sucked back in your full pacino
I ad made you thought you're out. Yeah, you had
a week till hey, what do you have? Literally one
week till the Knicks start their season? No?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Come, I mean I was okay, it was perfect. It
was it was a way to yes, mentally detected. No, no, no, hey,
we got DeVante Adams. Now we got Adams and Wilson
and Breese Hall and Braylan Allen and all Rogers as
his guy back. And Woody Johnson says, we're gonna kick
ass now. He says that today at the Owners.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
He wouldn't say ass though, oh like he was out
of hard knocks with the Bears. Don't even say ass
just when you were fifty words. You can't say it
just when you were gone.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
You're back.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
We're gonna real you better. It's a horror movie.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
And they sat back up.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
No, it's a it's a bit. I don't want to
go cliche, but it's pa Chino line from Godfather.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
What is just when I'm out? They bring me back
in and we clawed our fingernails for that is okay,
that's two different movies. But that's okay.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
You know what, they could have put that any given
Sunday speech in Godfather three, and Godfather three would have
been a better movie's laughing.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
I went to when Fredo died. I was the guy.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Sorry spoiler if you haven't seen the first Godfather. But Fredo,
we had to kill him. Oh and Sonny, he had problems.
He shouldn't have gone to the toll booth. They were
waiting for him. The guy gives a signal by dropping
the coin, and look what happens to the guy.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Okay, but I survive, and I survived through three moll movies.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Unfortunately, Sophia Coppel has a better director than an actress,
so three doesn't.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Get a lot of play.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
So we take this soliloquy from any given Sunday and
put it back in this movie with our fingernails.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
And you see the guy next to you, and you
have a guy who's gonna go through anything for are
we working here? Okay?

Speaker 3 (13:35):
Two things start quick.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Aaron Rodgers is the guy that if you're trying to
be alongside him but you're not to what he wants,
he's gonna cut you loose.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
I mean, we've seen this now repeatedly.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
The other is it went to his see a movie

Get down.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Yeah, let's let's exit the hallway. Listen in the fast
and furious. Here's the one you can completely skip over

before you watch six. And that's how it goes. I
like the way you tell I like the way you
tap exit. How about a Fresco exit swollen down. The
Jason Smith Show with Mike Carmon live from the tirec
dot Com Studios. That's the worst part. I love the
Davante Adams trade. But the worst part is I was done.

drag you to the bottom of the ocean. Good luck, Johnny.

Thank you for your continued support. Mike and I love
putting out this content for you every single night. And
speaking of putting out content, if content was a baseball,
Aaron Judge just put it out a home run that
(15:59):
looked he was gonna be a flyout. However, the ball
just kept drifting and drifting and drifting and drifting until
it fell into the seats and is now a six
to two Yankee lead over Cleveland as they bat in.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
The bottom of the seventh.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
His fourteenth career home run in the postseason, He's not
one behind Babe Ruth still needs another eight to catch
all time legend Bernie Williams and jazz guitarist.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Do you think more people know Bernie Williams now is
a jazz guitarist or they know him as a baseball I.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
Think it's really just me. He wants to bring up
the fact that he is a jazz because I think
I just have to explain quite good. I just have
to explain the millennials who Bernie Williams because he was
a thing with the guy in the place. He was
one of the guys hanging around Derek Jeter, he played one.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Why can't he just be a guitarist? Well, because because
he won a bunch of world series, so he doesn't
know how to play other things. Well, but it's like,
you know, you're known for you gola, I're a great guitarist.
You're a guitarist. Okay, Like well, okay, well I don't
think people know.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Well, I was gonna say Eddie van Halen, but boy,
Edi van Halen really learned that to do keyboards and
other stuff and patented things, and okay, bad example, bad example.
All right.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
I was gonna go to jak Lee to soupefully he no,
he's gonna be okay, that's was walking his dog. Okay,
then you sent me that story. This morning's.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Pick up your dog's poop. No, stop, stop stop. That
was a random act. It was awful, terrible. Well, he's
the thing we don't know he's gonna be. I saw
today a couple of reports he's gonna be okay.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
No, but I mean in terms of the randomness of it. Yeah,
Oh well they said he was just out and he was,
he was, he was random.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Oh man, just awful.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
I watched too much Law and Order No, and I
couldn't think about this. I couldn't think about the guitarist
because he was on my mind from that story.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Today. He couldn't bring up Zach Wild, couldn't bring up Bad.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Circle all the way down there's uh so. Yeah, so
the Yankees lead six to two over the Cleveland Guardians
as they bat in the bottom of the seventh thing,
looking to take a two o lead in the A
l C.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
S Now.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
A few minutes ago, we talked about the Davante Adams trade,
uh from the Raiders to the Jets and and look
like I said, the worst part is now after accepting
the Jets, we're gonna stick. No, now, we're gonna give
you hope again. We're gonna keep you around we're gonna
keep you around like this. Come on, man, just let
me make my clean break. No, it's like when your
ex when you you're done and they just call you
out of the blue one night.

I was done. No, Now I'm beck in. Now I'm beckon.

four hours away. How did I get roped into that?
And I can't quit you?
Speaker 3 (18:31):
That's uh, that's that's a different movie. That's well, but
I mean the sentiment could be the same.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Sure, sure, sure, but it didn't that scene again, that
movie didn't end well, no, it didn't.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
It did not en well. Uh, but it looks so
that So that's where it's at.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Like I'm telling you, I love the trade and I
will get into the details of it in a bigger
way later on, but just just to let me think
about it. Jets always gonna jet, And it's like, now
now you give me holped like you can't be bad
and just say, okay, we're not gonna get no, no, no.
Every year, we're gonna give you just a little bit
of hope to think that we're gonna be really good.
Then we're gonna snatch it away. But then do We're
gonna keep you on the lot. We're gonna keep you
hanging on for it all the way through, gonna keep you.

appointment very early. Get in, get it over and be
done with it and get them. I get into the
parking lot and my phone just goes meet and I
(19:28):
look and I'm like, there goes my nap because we're
gonna have to record another podcast that'll be up here
if it isn't already the wherever you get your podcast.
But it was just one of those all right Raiders,
bad job by you man. You've got all these teams
in need of wide receivers and you just say here, no.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
The judge said, we'll take them all. We'll pay the money.
Oh well, okay, then that's all right. And they were
either gonna one or the other. It was either gonna
be we're gonna get something and we're gonna pay the money,
or you don't have to give us a lot, but
you gotta pay the money. Jud But Jose gave him
what he wanted. We'll pay the money, a lot of
money for one leg. We'll pay the money.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
See. But that's the question. How hurt was that hamstring
at all?
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Listen, the Jets have a bunch of wide receivers that
are not very good, that are not using their hamstrings.
Williams get cut, is gonna get traded. Give those hamstrings
to DeVante Adams will be fine. We've got lots of ones.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Whoa, whoa, it'sparrimentation. How's gonna go?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
It is a Halloween season.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
You've been even you haven't been activated this year? Right,
you're still you haven't been up yet. Okay, Well, here
we're gonna you know, here's a go. How about you
stay in rehab Deavante adams hamstring and we're gonna give
We're gonna give him yours.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Okay, that's okay.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
So was he already on the plane when that play
to Williams happital Well, they said the.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Parking lots, and they said they knew last night, like
the trade was in his car. The trade was done
last night. And then it was announced. It like they
knew last night. Okay, this is what we're gonna do. No, sure,
that's that's not tamping in their facility parking lot.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
No, this that happened. They made the trade.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
They agreed to the deal last night, and he had
to fly to get and get already there and get
looked at me because we m, okay if he's been
there playing video games that Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
Okay, because with Kay Adams, I'm convinced every chestion in
the next room over bye, everybody.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
He just knocks.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
He just knocks the wall down in.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
The AUTI hie, I've here. And then he showed up.
He's like, hey, did we just become best friends?
Speaker 1 (21:24):
So look so there, So there's your first big train
and again I'll I'll tell you why the Jets are
now too big to fail.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
But there's a big there's a big question.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
However, right after that deal happens, we watched the Bills
get Amari Cooper from the Cleveland Browns, and we know
we'll get to the Bills part of this, but just
the Browns.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
The Browns angle on this because Tyshirt is back tonight.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Uh, this is the first thing I thought of When
I saw this trade go down, my first thought was, Oh,
it was the same thing.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
You know, you know what I see? Will Ferrell do
all those crazy ass commercials now for what is it for? Tapping?
Speaker 4 (21:56):
Whatever?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
He's singing, and I do the same thing?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
I know he will.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Yeah, he won't.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
He won't do ELF two because I'm not gonna ruin
the sanctity of that movie. But I'll sing on TV
for these PayPal commercials.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
We sold our control to hell Man, you won't do
ELF two, but I'll do these stupid ass commercials.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
We're all sing hey, and people are funny, and people
think what I'm doing is just because I'm singing on a.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
Commercial time I'm singing, I don't.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
It's okay, So you won't do that. And when the
trade goes down, I go, oh, So, Deshaun Watson gives
you the best chance to win per Kevin Stefanski the
last two weeks, but you'll trade your number one receiver.
That's okay, right, DeShawn. No, No, we got to put
our best guy out there to give us a chance
to win. That's Deshaun Watson. But we'll trade our number
one receiver who apparently we can win without so yeah
(22:44):
that when I see that message, my thought was, if
I'm a Browns fan, I stop watching the team. I say,
you know what, I'll see you next season.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
I can't do that.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
You're gonna sit here with some stupid ass story that
Deshaun Watson has to play because he's the best option
and he's not, and other teams go to other place,
so you know what's from the top, because they're paying
the money they can't get out of and Jimmy Hasselm,
I'm sure has said, I'm paying this guy more money
you all wanted him, know, and I'm paying them more
than any guaranteed contract in the history of the game.
(23:13):
So you're gonna keep playing this guy because I can't
believe Kevin Stefanski likes going up there and saying, y, no,
he's our guy.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
No, of course not. Kevin Sefanski looks like someone Dude,
I feel bad for you.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
And you're losing cachet, You're gonna lose the locker om,
you're gonna lose everybody because everybody knows DeShawn Watson stinks.
So but you're still doing that saying, oh, no, he's
still our best guy. But oh we'll trade our best receiver.
We know the season's over, right, If I would rather
the Browns just say, you know what, we're tanking. We
could put Jameis Winston in, but you know, we might
win some games, and at this point we're one in five.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
It's over.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
We'll probably draft a quarterback and find some way to
get by. We need to do that anyway, so we're
just gu I'd rather the Browns just say that we're
going to tank, because the other part of it is
I wouldn't even watch the games. I would be so
mad that you're insulting my intelligence. You're not putting out
a product to win, you won't do something that could
spark you to win. And then you give me the
you spit in my face with the with the with
(24:04):
the with the trade of Amari Cooper going oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
our best receiver who's coming off two huge years with us. Yeah,
we're better off without him, and we're we're with them
away for a third round pick. So yeah, that's how
we're better off. I mean, this is where I go.
You know what, there's better things for me to do
on a Sunday than watch the Browns. And I would
do all of that, I would watch rep. I don't
know if I want to watch replays of the Guardians
first two game against the Yankees, because the errors are
(24:25):
really really bad, but I would find something else to
do on Sunday then then watch the Browns, because why
are you investing emotionally in something where clearly, whatever their
their end game is, it's just I'm I'm I'm. I'm
satisfied with just having my team be a team where
I'm paying a guy and he's playing, and that's the
(24:46):
main aim of the season is to just continue to
have him earn his paycheck by going out there to play.
I mean I would, I would say, you know what
Browns I'll see in the off season.
Speaker 4 (24:54):
Well, it's good to see Haslim get back in the
spot like because right now he runs neck and neck
with Jerry Jones and we'll get to him plenty over
the show. In terms of obstinates and denial of where
you're at, right again, sunk costs in Cleveland, Right, bad contract.
There's nothing you can do about it. You just swallow
and pay out the cash. Figure out how to win.
(25:16):
Right in theory, Andrew Berry and his team have assembled
what was a pretty good roster in theory, Nick Chubbs
coming back here in short order. I know Jerome Ford
left with an injury, so you're down to you know,
a couple of uh also ran running backs to cobble together.
But you let Amari Cooper out, Like I immediately thought
of Morgan Freeman walking out of the prison and ja, ja,
(25:37):
I'm free.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
I'm out.
Speaker 4 (25:39):
You know, Sonny, I don't stamp your phone. I don't
care if trade me or not. Stamp out you get out. Okay,
So new Le's online for him, but you know you're
forcing Stefanski to do the hostage video of he gives
us the best chance, and not only does.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
He have to say that, but he's got to say
that first.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Like, I'm not gonna go through this crazy ass press conference,
so now I'm gonna say, right, he gets the best
chance to win.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Really, dude, you know.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
What, shut it down, Turn the MIC's off, turn the
cameras off. He's just gonna sit here and say whatever's
gonna say the same thing.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
Appeally, no, exactly, it's it's Richard Gear with his hand
on Rene Zell.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Wiger's back in Chicago as a puppet.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
I mean that's what we're at it this point, but
has them, you know, bad money and just isn't pushing
to do anything for this team to win.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Barry likes his job, so he's listening to it.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Has them, Hey, can I at least trade Cooper so
we can tell the fans what we really think and
nod and wink at them, because that's truly all this is?
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Right?
Speaker 4 (26:40):
Okay, Amari Cooper, you go on and we're gonna tell
the fans now we're taking even if the other guy's
still playing even I.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Would have much more respect if you saw us to
fansk your house, have press conference together.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Hey, here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
We're one and five.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
I mean, what are we gonna do? One and five?
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Right?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
This is pretty good?
Speaker 3 (26:58):
How many games can you lose to go to the playoffs? Seven?
Speaker 4 (27:01):
Right? Are we really gonna go thirteen and two? We're
not alone, Go travel down the highway. Don't bother Tom
winning about his quarterbacking stuff.
Speaker 3 (27:10):
Leave me alone. We're not doing it right, we stink.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Okay, you understand that, right, But we're still gonna get
together on Sunday. You get to watch the team on
television or not or not. There's a whole commercial just
so you know, just so you know, we're thinking about
next year, and we know that Deshaun Watson is terrible.
In fact, we've invited to John right and then you
showed Deshaan Watson's actually sitting next to them. We know
(27:32):
he's terrible, but he's making all this money and by
the level of his play, him playing so badly, we're
gonna get a great draft pick. No imagine, look at
Deshaun Watson and then squint your eyes and think about
it being Shador Sanders. Just think about that, Just just
squint your eyes, like, oh, that could be Shador Sanders,
could be cam Ward, Yeah, could be cam Ward, Hey,
(27:53):
could be could I've never seen, doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Imagine here see.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
I went back to when Will Ferrell was funny for
that reference. Here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna make
it right now in this video.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
We're gonna do a funny thing where you can superimpose
any quarterback's head you want on Deshaun Watson's body and
imagine that's our guy next year. But he needs to
be out there this year to play because he's bad
and we won't win games. But here's the problem.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
You can't superimpose it over the actual tape because now
it's in your mind that that.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
Quarterback looks bad. Oh no, no, I think that.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
No, no, because you really have to go and rewind
to back when Deshaun Watson was good.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
This a long time ago. That might be black and
white footage.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
It just like no, no, you put like like like
you put like rainbows and fireworks and everything else. Like
you know when you can send on your phone, you
send a text with fireworks below. That's how you do
like like when all of a sudden, like hey, keep
hitting the like button and you'll see balloons go up
over Deshaun Watson's face. That will be that's how you
do it. I really I would have more respect if
they just said that, they said, look, this is what
we're doing, because right now it's it's an insult to
(28:54):
the fans. It's an insane insult to the fan base,
to everybody that has a pulse that that cares, because
the Browns mean a lot to a lot of people,
right Every NFL team, every team means a lot to
a lot of people, and you're treating it like, yeah,
we're just gonna kind of do what we need to
do because we made a really bad decision and we're
kno going to get out of it.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Just real quickly.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
Though. If if Stefanski were to defy things, order the
code red and put in Jameis Winston and he gets fired,
he still gets his money, right, Yeah, he gets a
better job, and he'll get a better job somewhere else.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
He'll be head coach of the Jets next year. Oh
you said better job. He's out to the Cowboys next year.
Sorry you said better job. I know you keep saying
better Jeg wars.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
That's it. That's it.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Well, let's keep better job. Yeah, better job.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Better. We get to go to London a couple of
times a year, So I really I would stop.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
If I'm Browns, I would just stop watching tim now
to find out what's trending in the wide world of sports.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Kevin Watt's got the latest, Kike Dob what do you got?
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Yeah, Aaron Judge going it deep for the New York Yankee.
So they've extended They're leading is now six to two
in favor of the Bronx Bombers. It's the top of
the eighth inning out in New York with the Guardians
up with a runner on first and two batters out,
so four outs to go for the Guardians before they
go back to Cleveland facing a two nothing deficit. And
(30:08):
in the NFL, a lot of news to report on today.
The Detroit Lions giving defensive lineman Only McNeil a four
year of ninety seven million dollar contract extension with fifty
five million of it guaranteed, and some trades going down.
DeVante Adams, that's the big headline today, going to the
Jets is going to be reunited with Aaron Rodgers as
(30:28):
the Raider, setting him in exchange for a twenty twenty
five conditional third round pick that could become a second
based on performance. That is, if Adams is named to
a first or second team All Pro or if DeVante
Adams is on the roster for the AFC Championship game.
The Jets are taking on the entire remainder of adams salary,
and the Jets going to attempt, according to Pro Football Talk,
(30:50):
to trade.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Mike Williams after they got Adams.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
So Mike Williams has become expendable out over at the Meadowlands.
Bill's getting Amari Cooper from the Downs in exchange for
a third round pick as part of the picks swaps,
so Cleveland gonna get a twenty twenty five to third
and a twenty twenty sixth seventh rounder. Well, Buffalo getting
Cooper and a twenty twenty five sixth round pick, and
those were the only trades. Cam Akers going from the
(31:14):
Texans to the Minnesota Vikings as a team swapping late
round picks in that draft him, Mike tom and sing
Russell Wilson under consideration to start Sunday night against the
Jets as he took some first team reps reportedly in practice,
and Tomlin also said as a possibility. Wilson and Justin
Fields both we'll see action in week seven. Bet to
(31:35):
you guys, Thank you.

Speaker 1 (31:42):

any sane thought, is going to come in and happen
on Sunday.

Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith
Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven
pm Pacific. But Russell Wilson, he will start, Oh my goodness,
not justin Fields. Everybody's upset.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
Fox Sports Radio, The Jason Smith Show with my best
friend Mike Harmon. Yeah, we're not talking about Aaron Rodgers
right now.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
It's just an overriding the We're not uh love speaking
for America through those words.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Believe it or not.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
The Steelers look like they're going to be making a
change at quarterback today. Mike Tomlin in his Weekly talked
about how Russell Wilson's gonna get some reps with the
Ones this week on his way back mccalf injury, and
could he.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Start On Sunday, Tomlin says, e we're thinking about.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
He is in consideration this week. We'll see where that
leads us. Man. Both guys at the quarterback position are
scheduled to work tomorrow and we'll just walk at day
by day, all geared toward putting ourselves in in best
position to win the football game.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Again, I always say, find someone who loves you as
much as Mike Tomlin loves Russell Wilson, because this makes
zero sense. There's only two things that I think of
that would make sense, and I know neither ma true.
One is that they feel bad because they promised him
he would start. Oh, we promised you you would start.
The other thing is this is just gamesmanship and they
(33:48):
want the Jets to prepare for two quarterbacks. But why
would you do that to Justin Fielder? Why would you
do that to your starting quarterback? Right?
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Who has played pretty well? Now, has he played great?
Speaker 1 (33:57):
No? But has Justin Field's played well the Steelers started winning. Yes,
That's that's the one question that I will and I
would ask that makes even the most staunchest of Russell
Wilson believers go, oh, I see your point about why
starting Russell Wilson's a bad idea. They're four and two
through six games. Justin Fields has accounted for ten touchdowns. Right,
(34:19):
He's thrown for five, he's run for five. Right, He's
fourth overall in rushing yards for quarterback. He's completing sixty
six percent of his passes.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
Now has he been elite? No One turnover?
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Right? So that's been all the good for Justin Fields.
He's running the ball well what he did in Chicago.
He is throwing the ball at a high up percentage
of accuracy. And the Steelers are four and two. My
question would be this, you really want to see Russell
Wilson play. What is he going to give you that's
going to be better than what Justin Fields is at
(34:50):
this point?
Speaker 3 (34:50):
It is great.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
This is not Russell Wilson at ten years ago. Is
that Russell Wilson is seven years ago? Not five years ago.
This is Russell Wilson now, not healthy yet and so
washed that the Broncos eight eighty five million dollars just
to get rid of him, just to get rid of him.
And yet what is he going to give you at
this stage in his career that Justin Field is not? Right,
(35:13):
it's the same philosophy of oh, everybody in Ohio State
wants Ryan Day fired. Well, why well, because you know
he's eighty six and four, But we gotta get somebody
who's gonna go eighty seven and two. Like, Okay, who
are you gonna get that's gonna win the three games
that he hasn't won over the last seven years? There's
nobody out there here you're talking about the roster that
the Steelers have. Is Russell Wilson really gonna give you
(35:34):
more than what Justin Field is giving you.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
No, he's not in anything.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
He's gonna be the same guy throwing the football, and
he's not nearly as dynamic with his legs, right, and
that's really what sets Justin Field's apart. And the Steelers
are four and two, things are going well. Everybody in
that division has issues, right, The Ravens lost a couple
of games, but now they're getting pretty good. The Bengals
have issues, and the Browns. Clearly of the Browns, everything
is fine. And now you're gonna throw this out there
(35:57):
and say, no, no, we gotta put Russell will back
out there, Like what does he have over you that's getting.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
You out there?
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Because I don't know, anything he's gonna do that's gonna
be better than Justin Fields.
Speaker 4 (36:08):
I would say this the where you lose on his
elusiveness and the running. I think a lot of what
happened in Denver, Wow, I'm certainly not going to defend
that he was quote unquote good in any way shape
or for him. I think that was more just Sean
Payton wanted to move on and it was a hey,
I'm here, this is what I want.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
Give it to me. So there's going on, and then
there's but there's oh sure it's a lot of money.
Speaker 4 (36:36):
But I think the look he's not getting along necessarily
with bo Nix really well just yet either for all
of that, So that you've got those issues going on.
But from the passing game, I think you're trying to,
at least on the surface, think that you can unlock
something different, right because he still completed a high percentage
of his passes last year, he was still a twenty
(36:57):
five touchdown guy. All of those things, a lot of
it came, and a lot of sacks taken looked terrible decisions. Right,
So if you go in line with what the narrative
is on Justin Fields, you certainly have a lot of
that that crosses over in terms of decision making, holding
the ball too long, all of those things to this point,
field just the one interception he did have, the one
(37:18):
uh fumble, remember when he tried to lean over and
instead of just falling on the ball.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
Bad move.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
But either way, he's played fairly clean. But as you know,
Mike Tomplin said, don't don't confuse the record with great, okay, right,
because he hasn't played great. So I think what they're
saying is and I disagree with it, right. I think
you know, you're at your four and two, You're going
against the Jets team where their strength is their defense.
(37:44):
So in theory, having a guy that can create plays
with his legs is probably what you want in this situation.
But I understand their desire to try to, you know,
make George Pickens in the passing game click a little
bit more.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (37:57):
You're winning either you're winning it. You want to win
every game.
Speaker 1 (37:59):
So sixteen ten, I don't I don't understand, like you
change quarterbacks when you have to, You don't change quarterbacks
just because.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
Well I remember he was always number one on the
depth chart, right, But so we've had as well. We've
had six games, the Steelers are four and two and
they're in first place. And suddenly now, no, we're gonna
get Russell Wilson in there.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
This is this. I look at the Steelers and go man.
For so long they were such a great run franchise,
and now I feel like what's happened? Like is this
coming from above? It is this?
Speaker 3 (38:27):
Mike Tomlin, dude, are you losing your fastball? You are you?
Speaker 1 (38:30):
He is going to the walls and Ross Ross Ross,
Ross Russ What I really, Hey, are you you under
some kind of of hypnotism? Like in the movies when
the When, the When the government guys and the president
and the senators are all under the hypnotism of the
bad guys.
Speaker 3 (38:45):
Right look what they're doing?
Speaker 1 (38:46):
Like he is that what's going on right now that
Russell Wilson hasn't hypnotized thinking that it's twenty and thirteen
and he's a great quarterback.
Speaker 4 (38:53):
I do think someone needs to send a note though,
to remind him, Hey, Arthur Smith was the guy that
kept Bjon Robinson at a box important situations last year.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
I don't understand this fealty to Russell Wilson and I
don't get what they think they're gonna get that they're
not getting from Justin Fields. But you know what, Hey,
you'll find out Sunday against that Jets defense. Good luck
Russell Wilson, but good luck.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
We came about the Jets again.
Speaker 4 (39:19):
All of that Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh Jets, Jets, Jets coming up next?
Speaker 3 (39:23):
What NFL owner has threatened radio jobs Today Fox
