Talk about what he got Frostburg. We actually have played
by play a harmon coming back into the studio. If
you want to hear we do. Oh yeah, yeah, let's
say this is a harmon coming back into the studio. Yeah,
(02:29):
let's hear it. Bourn looks into the Nicolas San Francisco
over secondary.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Hey, somebody's running out on the field. So I'm goofball
in a hat and a red shirt. Now he takes
off the shirt. He's running down the middle. By the fifty,
he's at the thirty. He's bear chested and banging his chest.
Kelly runs the opposite way. He runs at the fifty,
he runs the forty. The guy is drunk, but there
he goes.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Uh, Harmon is wearing a big red hat tonight. I
got the red hat. He's wearing a bait. You not
having a red shirt On, but Hen har On the
call pretty soon no shirt for Harmon. It would be
really cool. Kevin har Arland was stalking me to do place.
Mister hype guy, how should be? How much money you
think Harlan makes? Like On cameo, hey, can you do
a call of this? Yeah? Sure, whatever you want? Whatever
(03:13):
you one, I got it, I got I got it
for you. Whatever you need, I got it for you.
I'll tell you what if he isn't doing it, he
should and he can make a lot of money for
himself for the charity of his choice. I will tell
you one thing, Jason, he is the nicest guy you
will ever meet. Harmon Harlan. Oh Harlan, Oh, okay, because
we damn it's so close, didn't we saw the other night.
Harmon's not a nice guy. He was upset when I
said Robin Roberts is the nicest person I've ever met
(03:35):
in this business. Harmon said, what about me? He's been
so salty since Mark Cuban took advantage of him. Yeah,
I took all that money. I mean, that's a lifetime
of misery. He took all that money. Like, uh, like
I'm a picture. Cuban is Pacino from otions thirteen and
your call Riner took all my money. It took all
my money. Oh no, no, no, you're you're thinking of
(03:56):

How about you get real smart? Scott calm down, gets
have yourself some kids. So halftime right now of a
(04:37):
great Thursday night game has to be a blistered with excitement.
For this game, the Seahawks lead the Cowboys twenty one
to twenty on the strength of well two things. One
time every time Jackson Smith and Jigbub gets torn down
in the end zone, they have first and goal from
the one. But before we get to Dak the first
(05:01):
half for DK Metcalf. When you go back to games,
you think about the best first half or wide receiver
has ever had with with with a certain number of accomplishments.
You think about that big game Randy Moss had about
fifteen years ago where he caught up three passes for
one hundred and eighty yards and three touchdowns in the
first half. Right, that was the gold standard of a
first half game. Three for one to eighty three and
(05:22):
three touchdowns. Well so far tonight, DK Metcalf gave Randy
Moss a run for his money in the first half
because Metcalf right now again at halftime twenty one to twenty,
DK Metcalf three catches, one hundred and eight yards and
two touchdowns including this one. Including this one, eight.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Smith fires over the middle, great brand Metcalf out in
front and he will go all the way for a
touchsound seventy three yards Dk Metcalf. So they haven't scored
since the first series against the Rams.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
In the next to last game, and they score with
an exclamation point halfway through.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
The first quarter, the a stands were angry. That's Al
Michael's on the call right there on Amazon. The fastest
a player is run on a play this year in
the NFL. Twenty three miles an hour was DK Metcalf's
speed on that ball passing Tyreek Hill, who remember ran
twenty two miles an hour for the touchdown That was
(06:41):
the number one fastest play in the NFL this year.
Now it's DK Metcalf surpassing that twenty three miles an hour.
I mean, I mean, I don't know what would my
top speed be, like like a half a mile an hour,
Like if I know how you could if I did
a forty yard debt. Now I can't run forty yards
if I did a twenty yard dash four yard debt,
because if I get to twenty, that's just funny thing,
(07:01):
is man? Well, yeah, yeah, I don't run like I
told you, Matt dam at the end of air. This
is stupid I do. This is new. Balance is squeaking
on the first step. I don't know why people do this.
I wonder, first of all, how many steps I would
get before I would have to pull up. But if
you could put something on me for like ten yards
or fifteen yards, what would my top speed be? That's
a good question. I don't know. Four miles an hour. Yeah,
(07:23):
and I could do it once. I might get a
second run in me. That's it. Oh no, No, at
twenty yards you would tumble over. No, yeah, yeah, yeah
you would. You would. I've seen video of you running
less than that. No, my kid took me out. Yeah, Harman,
you would have rolled the last ten yards. I said that,
like it's wrong. You would would tumble. It would be
like going down, to be like falling downhill, pin ball,
(07:46):
anything that gets in my way, every gafting out of
your way. No, I try. It'd be like that the
big you know in the in the cartoons where the
snowball starts rolling down and gets really puts wiley coyote
up against the arms and legs that are out. Yeah yeah, No.
What I love is Darren Bland, who everybody loves. They
just put the graphic up. Five completions, one hundred and
thirty seven yards and two touchdowns. He's been targeted six
(08:08):
times and after that long touchdown, DK metcalf, who's lost
a lot of money to celebration penalties in the past.
He went and he's reverted to He's done a lot
of sign language to give his message. Sure, he signed
out the words bland. Can't government in side language. That's
(08:28):
gonna be a new thing now if I do it
in sign language, can you really blame me? Can you
blame me? And if it's silent, what am I doing?
At this point, they haven't find him, although he hasn't
gotten to celebrate as often as I think his fantasy
owners in hope. But here we are in week thirteen,
maybe bye week. He found his way into your lineups
and he's now found his way back into your heart
(08:49):
and a lot of people finding their way into your
lineups this week because this is this is the first
true by mcgeddon in a couple of years. Like in
one of my Dinastas leagues, I have ten guys on
the bench. I'm star Jackson Smith and the Jig in
the game today. It just got I might start Royce
Freeman in the game this week. Yeah, it's it's weird, strange, bedfellows.
You got a couple of teams where I might start
(09:09):
Julius Jones in the game this week. Well, one of
the bits we did for our Wednesday podcast that I
watch Reflex was let's go through the list of teams
where you would only be starting one player or maybe none,
and we got to like ten teams, which was really
kind of shocking. But then you look, the Bills are
all off, so there's what four or five guys that
are missing. The Ravens are off, so there's several guys.
(09:30):
Bears even have three four that you'd be missing right
between Herbert Fields and Comet and DJ Moore. I mean,
you got guys, so a lot of holes in your lineup.
So it's strange Bedfellows week, especially when you're now in
week thirteen and there are six teams on bye oh yeah, yeah.
The Jason SMITHSONO with Mike Carmon live from the tire
(09:50):
rack dot Com Studios. Zach Sharbonay with a really powerful run.
The Seahawks have been all over this Cowboys defense tonight,
doing whatever they wanted to so far in the first
half and into the third quarter. Say it, g get
Let's just talk for a second, right, We just got
to talk for a second about the absolute heater that
(10:11):
Dak Prescott is still on because again it's twenty one
to twenty at halftime, and Dak Prescott has been incredible
in the first have over two hundred yards passing two touchdowns,
had a touchdown, run negated by a holding penalty. In
his last five and a half games, Dak Prescott is
now at nineteen touchdowns and two picks. And this real,
(10:34):
this is a heater that has come out of nowhere,
because up until the Rams game, which suddenly went when
he threw four touchdowns, he had just been having a
middling He've been having an okay season. He been he
was five touchdowns and four picks right that the Cowboys
were playing well. But he has been on an absolute
tear to the point where knowing how the media works
(10:55):
and knowing what it's going to be after tonight if
the Cowboys win this game and Dak throws another couple
to whatever it's gonna be, is that you're looking for
an MVP candidate, and suddenly he jumps to the front
because being the quarterback of the Cowboys throwing for three
or four touchdowns every week, which is what he's been doing,
He's gonna jump to the front because nobody else is
having that shit. Look, Mahomes is not having that season.
(11:17):
Two is having a good season, but not on the
heater that Dak is a Dak has captured the front
page headlines with what he's been doing like he flipped
the switch against the Rams. Four touchdowns against the Rams,
three against the Eagles, four against the Giants, two against Carolina,
four against Washington. Two more tonight in the first half.
They haven't gotten the ball yet in the second half.
This has been an unreal heater. And there's definitely things
(11:41):
that I would I know, because I think I figured
out the way to keep Dak playing this well, because
you know, that's what I do for a living. But
you talk about where he's gonna be, and we want
to talk about MVPs now as we're getting closer and
closer to the end of the season, Dak's gonna jump
to the front of that conversation. Well, without doubt, he'd
be one A and then maybe he takes over the
(12:01):
one spot depending on the result of the Eagles and
forty nine Ers game this weekend. When we look at
what Jalen Hurts is, yeah, you know, Hurts has been great,
but he doesn't have the he doesn't have the boy.
I'm doing absolutely everything like Dak is. Look, Hurts is
you know me, I thought Hurts is gonna be the
MVP last year. So I'll take the loss on that
because he was just so great. But the Eagles have
(12:24):
the best roster in the game and they won games
for a long time. This year where Jalen Hurts has
been okay, but he wasn't great. Now the last couple
of weeks, Hurts has turned it up under because he's
a great quarterback. But they also have a great team.
I mean, this is I mean the Eagles again, most
talented roster in the NFL and to even better than
the forty nine ers. Dallas roster is pretty good, but
(12:44):
this is they are completely Dak Prescott driven at driven
and these video game numbers that he's putting up with this,
he's gonna capture the attention because part of it is
you play for the Cowboys, have a year like this,
guess what, you're gonna get more attention. As much attention
you get Jalen and guys stars in the NFL across
the board, We'll find you in places and make sure
(13:05):
you're a star. Aaron Rodgers became a star in Green Bay.
You know you can do that. But Dak's gonna jump
to the top of that list tonight. Well, what's great
is you've got three weeks in a row after this
where you got get tested, because even if people don't
like Buffalo, they're out on Buffalo. Well, he travels to
Buffalo next, and then they're all, I'm sorry, you've got
Philadelphia mixed in there. So you've got a game against
(13:25):
Philadelphia on the tenth. That'll be a Sunday night affair.
And then you're on the road at Buffalo and then
on the road at Miami. So you want to start
getting some old MOE behind you, because at this point,
to a degree, the Cowboys, we still look at them
and they keep we keep saying, well, they're bums layers.
Right at this point, Dak is tied in MVP odds
(13:46):
at last I can see here with two a tongue
of I loa at eight to one. You're looking at
Hurts at plus one forty. My home's still at plus
three point fifty. Lamar Jackson on the bye this week,
he's four to one at plus four hundre. So and
you know, get Dak into a tied in that fourth
slot right now and certainly dominant. He had a touchdown
(14:07):
run that got called back. It'll be his kick a
field goal, it'll be his MVP to loose. That's where
it's the next couple of weeks he can go and
solidify that. Look at that. Uh, but Dak has some
work to do, as Geno Smith has just scampered in
for a touchdown, making a twenty six to twenty lead
for the Seahawks. A twenty seven to twenty lead for
(14:30):
the Seahawks extra point pending. They have just run and
thrown all over this Cowboys defense tonight. It has been
something so all we had to do is besmirch Gino
Smith's name again. Look at what that and all of
a sudden like yeah, you doubted me. If you like

(17:28):
I see well, Dak Prescott was just picked on the
goal line. However, a penalty flag and I feel like
there's a penalty on every band play tonight. We already
got fourteen of him for the game. Oh man, like
every play flag now the pedalized teams. The game in
tied at over seven apiece per game coming into this game.
I think I think Carl Cheffer's is doing this game.
(17:51):
I'm pretty sure Jeroon Boger also doing this game. Angel
Hernandez doing this same team coming together, Joe West doing
this game. Nice, you got Cowboy Joe in nicely done.
But the penalty gets called back. So Cowboys do have
the football inside Seattle territory. But again they're down twenty
eight to twenty because Seattle on offense has just been
(18:12):
obliterating the Cowboys defensively tonight. The one thing at least
we have though here on TNF. We got a lot
of points, we got a big game. We're midway through
the third quarter. This ain't Bears Vikings. Sorry buddy, but
it ain't Bears Vikings. True, it's not Bears Panthers from
a Thursday night affair. What team is? What team is?
Speaker 3 (18:30):
The is?
Speaker 1 (18:31):
The is the conduit there? What team is? Everything we
have in common there? Bears Bears, Yeah, Bears Bears we're
living in a world of suck, so we're trying to
find something better. Look, we're gonna rank all two seventy
two at the end of the year. They may be
the worst. Yeah, we're running thirty four, though, we're gonna
fight about them. Look, we're not gonna fight about him four.
(18:52):
We're taking you in with us. Not at least. Our
games come down in the last play every week. Oh,
that is true. That's true. When we play the Jets
and Bears, we blow them out. It came down to
the last play, except the last player in that game
was the punt return for a touchdown in the first quarter.
Then the game was over. Oh that was it. It
was over right there. That's it. The Jets are doubt
seven nothing. They're not coming back from that. So we'll
(19:12):
have more on this game again twenty eight to twenty.
Midway through the third quarter, seedee Lamb's having a big night.
A lot of fantasy points out there for everybody tonight
on Thursday Night football. Meanwhile, I don't know who's having
a worse week in sports than Sports Illustrated. Okay, so
you had the AI controversy. Yeah that you know. They
(19:33):
have writers who aren't real people that are artificially intelligent
creations that have been writing columns for Sports Illustrated for
however long. Well, it's loosely based on people. Yes, well,
I mean they look like people. Hey, I gotta look
like people the rest. This can't be Rogue one where
it looks like, you know, hey, why is the General GRANDMV.
(19:54):
Tarkin blinking from the side of his eyes like it's
it's actual? You know? Well that was the only bad
part of Rogue One because everything else was great. But
I'm like, wow, the technology just just wasn't there. Just
need it in another six months, Just need a little
bit more time, because now it's so smooth. I don't
know why they don't go back and redo those scenes.
If George Lucas was in charge, they would have, Hey,
(20:16):
we're going back and redoing this, and now you're getting
me and now Rogue one is a perfect movie. Now,
you know, Job of the Hut would have a six pack.
They were like, they were like lizards the way they
would talk and their eyes would that's like Tommy Lee
Jones and Men in Black. Uh. The reason he was
eyes was blinking was because he's a lizard, and I
know he's patting so much because I'm so. They have
the AI controversy over the last few days, which is
(20:38):
really embarrassing, right, really embarrassing. That's embarrassing. There's no like, oh, hey,
there's a good side to it, because a lot of
things now in the world. Even if it's like it
seems really embarrassing, there's gonna be thirty percent of people
who are going to defend it, right, So there's nothing
you can do. It's like, okay, it's it's it's right
an antagonist day. The only people defending that are actually
(21:00):
AI people. Now it is time to rise up. It
is time to rise Resistance is futile. So they had
that story and then today they come out with their
sports Person of the Year. Yeah. Look, for a long time,
the Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year, sportswoman now sports person.
The sports Person of the Year was a really big deal.
(21:20):
It was always, Hey, there was a lot of anticipation,
who's the sportsman, woman of the year, the sports person
of the year. And sometimes it would be somebody who
had a great year in sports and won a championship,
or it would be Joe Montana, or it would be
you know, Miguel Cabrera for winning the triple Crown, whatever
would be. And sometimes it's someone who just does something
so great humanitarily for sports that hey, they're they're they're
(21:44):
the sports person of the year. Sports Illustrated now and aside,
this is a bad week because they have decided, hey,
let's go the hot take route. Dion Sanders is your
sports person of the year. Okay, Dion Sanders, I can
get behind now. But this is where it's embarrassing is
that it's embarrassing because Sports Illustrated having to go the
(22:08):
hot take route for attention, because that's basically what they're
They made Deon Sanders sports person of the Year for
the attention they could have made such you could have
made somebody sports person of the year. Hey, well respected,
they win it. No, they went because they knew it
would be a hot take. Well, but he was also
a guy that made people give a damn about September football,
(22:30):
so he gave us a month of teran he was
the September sports Person of the the but he got
people fired a calendar. If you had a calendar, I'd
give him September September he'd be mister September. Other people
for different times and for Sports Illustrated. Right, Not that
I don't like a hot take as much as everybody else,
but seriously, look at Deon Sanders. He had a hot
(22:53):
month and then what's what's happened? The team is four
and eight, They're not going to a Bowl game. Players
are transferring out coach right, coaches are leaving Bay Win
and now you're hearing about all the players who were
talking about when they were unceremoniously pushed out of the door.
When Deon Sanders showed up in Coloradocks, people forget about that.
Then he showed up saying all y'all better hit the
(23:14):
transfer portal. Wow, five months to tell us your story.
So this is this is the guy that they've decided
to be Sports Person of the Year. Now, like I said,
I like a hot take as much as everybody else,
but this is Sports Illustrated. Who was the most proud
sports entity. It was a big deal for a long time.
For fifty sixty years they were and now here they
(23:38):
are with fake writers and we're looking for a hot
take because we need clicks. This is Sports Illustrated, man,
This is like watching your grandfather suddenly say hey, I'm
gonna now put TikTok videos out, Great Grandpa, come on, man,
no TikTok and he monetize it. No TikTok, Grandpa, No ticktok.
It's gonna make him a feel hole. Why not? You
can't do no, just don't do TikTok videos. Okay, just no,
(23:58):
no TikTok videos, right, just grandpa grandpa? No, Okay, my
kids said that already, Dad. No. Uh, that's what Sports
Illustrated is. And now this is what they've referred to. Now.
I got to add Sports Illustrated to my list of
sports Stonehenge teams and institutions because they were so proud
(24:19):
so long ago. But stone like you know, I say,
sports Stonehenge, that were such a big deal so long ago,
and now people don't even understand why they were a
big deal, like Indiana basketball, Nebraska football? Right, why would
he talk? Why were they such a big deal? I
don't understand, Well, you don't understand. A long long time
ago they were really big deal. Yeah, but really, yes
(24:41):
they were. And now they've fallen into disrepair and they
really aren't what they used to be. And now Sports Illustrated,
which was this was it. It was Sports Illustrated was
great reporting. It was telling you things you didn't know
in depth about games, in depth features. But now the
world has evolved a little bit and reporting on sports.
If I want to know something about Dak Prescott, I
don't have to wait for Leemontville's article on Dak Prescott
(25:04):
to come out when they decide to do one. I
can find any bit of information I want about Dak
Prescott going back ten years. So you need to evolve
a little bit. But it's just to see Sports Illustrated
go to the point where we got Ai Riders and
now a hot take for sports Person of the Year
where d On won four games, no Bowl game. Coaches
are leaving, players are leaving, players are decommitting from Colorado.
(25:25):
After it was so on this guy's a sports person
of the year, Like what has he done to show
I'm the sports person of the year. I mean, really,
he had a hot month. He had a hot month,
and he changed college football and everybody was behind him
and he was the story sixteen two, not one, but two.
But it's it's it's not if they did sports Person
(25:46):
of September, that's Dean sander do you remember, I remember
September September. Yeah, it's kind of one of those. They
got my earth winding fire tickets, go ahead, nicely done.
When you try to pull it back and it's the
all right, the coaching, you know, carousel, all right, fire
(26:07):
this man? Well, who you gonna hire in this case?
Was there anything bigger? You had? That meteoric rise? Right?
That was the biggest thing going Colorado football, Dion Sanders.
Everybody wanted a piece of it. One other story in
sports is there for you this year? Bad officiating, the
(26:30):
Jimaharma always sitting on the Emperor Palpatine's throne or the
iron throne. It's Tony Rumo going Jim Jim, Jim Jim, Look, dolly, Jim,
Jim Jim. Hey Jim, you get what you wish for,
Bim Jim Jim. I mean, you could have gone many ways.
You could have gone to I'll give you some examples.
You could have gone to the Spain women's soccer team
(26:53):
that won the World Cup despite the fact everybody quit
because of the the A lot of people that yeah,
I know they hated that guy, and you could have
voted them that. They could have been the sports people persons,
sports people, sports persons. Would it be sports persons more
per person, they would be the sports person of the year.
They're talking about overcoming all kinds of Look, you had
(27:14):
fifteen of the best players in the country saying we
don't want to play in the show, and they still
went on to win the World Cup. Like that's a
pretty big sports present, an indictment of the rest of
the field. What happened to the women's national And I'm
not saying put the US women's national team there, come
on now, but you could have made them the sports
persons people of the year thing with the guy in
the place, Yeah, you could have made them. You could
(27:34):
have could have You could have made Steve Cohen sports
person year because he built the Texas Rangers into a
World Series. I know. I mean, you can go to
Messi and what he's meant for soccer, even though that
died a quick death in the NLS when he got hurt.
But but he got hurt yet, but look look at
(27:56):
what happened, how much money he made and how much
you know, again you're not like me, Yeah, let monetize it,
let's monetize it. But he, like Grandpa would TikTok video.
His jumping to the MLS was a really big It
still is a really big deal. It just happened. He
happened to jump when they only had a handful of
games left and Miami wasn't gonna make the but it
was every night it was hey, messy, messy, messy, messy. Right,
(28:19):
there's for for that kind of attention where things actually
turned out well, Like MESSI came and okay, let's say,
you want to say he had two hot months. Okay,
but the impact he had on sports on MLS is huge. Yeah,
but he had a hot month and everything after that.
He was going to change the paradigm. Don't you remember
the hot take a street and the jackass he amoring
(28:41):
to get within three feet of him. He was the
chosen one to get the audience. It's like when Tim
Tebow was the nicest guy in the world. He was.
Remember if you've had a couple of minutes when Tim
Tebow with Dion Sanders, he became the same thing. Yeah,
a bunch of sycophantic sons. I can't even say what
I want to say. Uh, light it up to get
(29:01):
to the draw and feast off it. And it was
good for business, So everybody jumped up. Or it doesn't
matter if you lost eight of your last night, but
you gotta have some kind of positivity after Oh here,
what happened after that first month? That magazine was published?
Six weeks. It's done, it's done. We're picking Dion in October.
Wait what? Yes? In October I gave the voting m

Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven
pm Pacific.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
It's Christmas Day night in the club. Yeah, give me
some of that vod gagnog. I'm so far away from
my family right now. I love it. I love it.
Get that disco ball spinning. I gotta bring that back in.
I want to hook up on Christmas Day night. Yeah,
I'm with your day. Why are you saying like it's
(31:59):
wrong hook up with your grandma? But what is what
I told you? Harmon was drinking tonight. I told him
drinking before the show. No, no, I was saying. He
was bonny to you, not him, you jack ass. Oh
I'm just he added grandma after I had already said.
And then you said yeah, And then he said hook
it up with your grandma, and you said yeah. It
(32:20):
was still relating to you. I was ignoring the man
behind the curtain. This is the dangers of the demon
altcohol as you go into your professional life. U. We'll
have more on the Monday Night game still twenty eight
twenty seven or Thursday Night Football. Rather, it's twenty eight
twenty seven Seahawks with the lead over the Dallas Cowboys.
(32:41):
But if you're watching the game tonight, you probably saw
this news earlier in the day. The first big flexing
of the holiday season has happened. Holiday holiday holiday. It's
a holiday season, and the Patriots and Chiefs were set
to face off on Monday Night Football in week fifteen.
That does not happened. That game has been flexed out
(33:03):
and they didn't get flexed out because of the Chiefs.
That game is flexed out going to be broadcast at
one o'clock on Sunday, December seventeenth, Instead, the Eagles and
Seahawks have moved into that primetime slot on ESPN. So
what you're telling me is I should have read the
tea leaves and bet the hell out of the Seahawks
(33:23):
tonight because everybody knew something. This is the first ever
Monday night football flex in the history of flexing. And
there's a couple of things to take away from this.
This is how bad the Patriots are that the Chiefs
and Patrick Mahomes can't save the Patriots from being flexed down.
Taylor Swift RSVP'd no in that game. If you ever
(33:44):
wanted to realize that this is going to be the
last year of Belichick, the last year of the Patriots died,
and the last year of everything. Two big things from
this Number one, how pissed off do you think Bob
Kraft is that the Patriots got flexed out of Monday
Night Football? I mean, he's the second most influential over
besides Jerry Jones. You flex me out of Monday Night
for I know we stick more playing the Chiefs. Man,
(34:06):
this is Monday what I've done for the league for
the last twenty years. You're flexing me out of Monday
Night Football. Yeah, sorry, Bob, Sorry, you're out. You're kind
of out. Yeah. I think he's not gonna be happy. No,
he's gonna be pitched. Next time he's following in the rankings,
Kronky takes over. He's at the two slot. Next time
Godell needs a favorite from Bob Kraft. Forget it, forget
(34:26):
you flexed us O Monday night. No, no, no, you
dave certainly got data and information on Bob Kraft that
can surface back up. You kidd me, you have flexed
does out. But here's the you know, there's that h
you know state that looks like a kind of a boot. Yeah, okay, sure, Yeah,
there's some stuff down there that people can dredge back
(34:48):
up if they wanted to. I old Bob Kraft from Italy. No,
you said, boots Italy? What do we what do we
call Florida? Then Flora's Florida Peninsula, the peninsula. It's gotta go.
I'm thinking about it. What happened in Italy? Bob crafts
off because that Wow, that's breaking news for Mike Harmon
right now. It's an international But here's my favorite part
(35:12):
is that Amazon put up a graphic promoting uh next
week next week's game, which the Patriots are involved in.
And here's how bad it is for the Patriots. Usually
they put up the team and the star player. Sure, right,
there's nobody to put up. There's nobody to put up
(35:33):
for the for the Patriots. So they put up a
picture of Belichick.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Yeah, but look on the other side.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
You know what's on the other side of the graphic though,
it's t J. Watt. Yeah, but normally they put up
offensive guys. Yea the time, you're putting up an offense
ave right now, it's two defensive wizards. You're not gonna
put Jalen Warren up. You're not gonna put Deontay Johnson.
You're gonna put up a tiny bleeding I'm gonna put
Tenny pick it up because he stinks stay in four
hundred plus yards. Don't you know how great that it was?
(36:00):
You put up a defensive Player of the Year guy. Okay,
now it's not your ye, it's not great, no tell
me wrong. But TJ. Watt looks like like what like
like I don't know, looks like a bunch of gold
bricks compared to we're just gonna put Belichick's picture up there.
It was pretty good. I wanted to I wanted to
watch Belichick coach. That's what I want to see. It
(36:21):
gives a lot of screen time because there's a lot
of time between plays if you're going, what the hell
just happened? The Patriots are like, they're becoming a sports
Stonehenge overnight. Like, I gotta explain generation Z has no
idea the Patriots used to be this very again, yeah,
I just think somebody who is seventeen right now that
is just getting into their big foot. They got the Patriots.
They won with Brady, Tom Brady and every they won
(36:42):
super Bowls, the Patriots. You gotta explain that gen Z
has no idea the Patriots were this good. Life comes
at you fast. I mean, this is a this is
a sports Stonehenge overnight overnight. I did like that graphic though.
That was a good picture of Belichick. Bellot's put picture
of Bellichick up. We don't have a single player that
(37:04):
we can isolate. Oh my goodness, I put up from
Andre Stevenson. You could have everybody knows, yeah, and then
you would have had well, if they don't play fantasy,
you would have had to explain, now that's true. Uh,
put another touchdown on the board for the Seahawks. Another
touchdown catch for dk metcalf Gee, you know the night

over secondary.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Hey, somebody's running out on the field. So I'm goofball
in a hat and a red shirt. Now he takes
off the shirt. He's running down the middle. By the fifty,
he's at the thirty. He's bear chested and banging his chest.
Kelly runs the opposite way. He runs at the fifty,
he runs the forty. The guy is drunk, but there
he goes.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Uh, Harmon is wearing a big red hat tonight. I
got the red hat. He's wearing a bait. You not
having a red shirt On, but Hen har On the
call pretty soon no shirt for Harmon. It would be
really cool. Kevin har Arland was stalking me to do place.
Mister hype guy, how should be? How much money you
think Harlan makes? Like On cameo, hey, can you do
a call of this? Yeah? Sure, whatever you want? Whatever
(03:13):
you one, I got it, I got I got it
for you. Whatever you need, I got it for you.
I'll tell you what if he isn't doing it, he
should and he can make a lot of money for
himself for the charity of his choice. I will tell
you one thing, Jason, he is the nicest guy you
will ever meet. Harmon Harlan. Oh Harlan, Oh, okay, because
we damn it's so close, didn't we saw the other night.
Harmon's not a nice guy. He was upset when I
said Robin Roberts is the nicest person I've ever met
(03:35):
in this business. Harmon said, what about me? He's been
so salty since Mark Cuban took advantage of him. Yeah,
I took all that money. I mean, that's a lifetime
of misery. He took all that money. Like, uh, like
I'm a picture. Cuban is Pacino from otions thirteen and
your call Riner took all my money. It took all
my money. Oh no, no, no, you're you're thinking of

How about you get real smart? Scott calm down, gets
have yourself some kids. So halftime right now of a
(04:37):
great Thursday night game has to be a blistered with excitement.
For this game, the Seahawks lead the Cowboys twenty one
to twenty on the strength of well two things. One
time every time Jackson Smith and Jigbub gets torn down
in the end zone, they have first and goal from
the one. But before we get to Dak the first
(05:01):
half for DK Metcalf. When you go back to games,
you think about the best first half or wide receiver
has ever had with with with a certain number of accomplishments.
You think about that big game Randy Moss had about
fifteen years ago where he caught up three passes for
one hundred and eighty yards and three touchdowns in the
first half. Right, that was the gold standard of a
first half game. Three for one to eighty three and
(05:22):
three touchdowns. Well so far tonight, DK Metcalf gave Randy
Moss a run for his money in the first half
because Metcalf right now again at halftime twenty one to twenty,
DK Metcalf three catches, one hundred and eight yards and
two touchdowns including this one. Including this one, eight.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Smith fires over the middle, great brand Metcalf out in
front and he will go all the way for a
touchsound seventy three yards Dk Metcalf. So they haven't scored
since the first series against the Rams.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
In the next to last game, and they score with
an exclamation point halfway through.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
The first quarter, the a stands were angry. That's Al
Michael's on the call right there on Amazon. The fastest
a player is run on a play this year in
the NFL. Twenty three miles an hour was DK Metcalf's
speed on that ball passing Tyreek Hill, who remember ran
twenty two miles an hour for the touchdown That was
(06:41):
the number one fastest play in the NFL this year.
Now it's DK Metcalf surpassing that twenty three miles an hour.
I mean, I mean, I don't know what would my
top speed be, like like a half a mile an hour,
Like if I know how you could if I did
a forty yard debt. Now I can't run forty yards
if I did a twenty yard dash four yard debt,
because if I get to twenty, that's just funny thing,
(07:01):
is man? Well, yeah, yeah, I don't run like I
told you, Matt dam at the end of air. This
is stupid I do. This is new. Balance is squeaking
on the first step. I don't know why people do this.
I wonder, first of all, how many steps I would
get before I would have to pull up. But if
you could put something on me for like ten yards
or fifteen yards, what would my top speed be? That's
a good question. I don't know. Four miles an hour. Yeah,
(07:23):
and I could do it once. I might get a
second run in me. That's it. Oh no, No, at
twenty yards you would tumble over. No, yeah, yeah, yeah
you would. You would. I've seen video of you running
less than that. No, my kid took me out. Yeah, Harman,
you would have rolled the last ten yards. I said that,
like it's wrong. You would would tumble. It would be
like going down, to be like falling downhill, pin ball,
(07:46):
anything that gets in my way, every gafting out of
your way. No, I try. It'd be like that the
big you know in the in the cartoons where the
snowball starts rolling down and gets really puts wiley coyote
up against the arms and legs that are out. Yeah yeah, No.
What I love is Darren Bland, who everybody loves. They
just put the graphic up. Five completions, one hundred and
thirty seven yards and two touchdowns. He's been targeted six
(08:08):
times and after that long touchdown, DK metcalf, who's lost
a lot of money to celebration penalties in the past.
He went and he's reverted to He's done a lot
of sign language to give his message. Sure, he signed
out the words bland. Can't government in side language. That's
(08:28):
gonna be a new thing now if I do it
in sign language, can you really blame me? Can you
blame me? And if it's silent, what am I doing?
At this point, they haven't find him, although he hasn't
gotten to celebrate as often as I think his fantasy
owners in hope. But here we are in week thirteen,
maybe bye week. He found his way into your lineups
and he's now found his way back into your heart
(08:49):
and a lot of people finding their way into your
lineups this week because this is this is the first
true by mcgeddon in a couple of years. Like in
one of my Dinastas leagues, I have ten guys on
the bench. I'm star Jackson Smith and the Jig in
the game today. It just got I might start Royce
Freeman in the game this week. Yeah, it's it's weird, strange, bedfellows.
You got a couple of teams where I might start
(09:09):
Julius Jones in the game this week. Well, one of
the bits we did for our Wednesday podcast that I
watch Reflex was let's go through the list of teams
where you would only be starting one player or maybe none,
and we got to like ten teams, which was really
kind of shocking. But then you look, the Bills are
all off, so there's what four or five guys that
are missing. The Ravens are off, so there's several guys.
(09:30):
Bears even have three four that you'd be missing right
between Herbert Fields and Comet and DJ Moore. I mean,
you got guys, so a lot of holes in your lineup.
So it's strange Bedfellows week, especially when you're now in
week thirteen and there are six teams on bye oh yeah, yeah.
The Jason SMITHSONO with Mike Carmon live from the tire
(09:50):
rack dot Com Studios. Zach Sharbonay with a really powerful run.
The Seahawks have been all over this Cowboys defense tonight,
doing whatever they wanted to so far in the first
half and into the third quarter. Say it, g get
Let's just talk for a second, right, We just got
to talk for a second about the absolute heater that
(10:11):
Dak Prescott is still on because again it's twenty one
to twenty at halftime, and Dak Prescott has been incredible
in the first have over two hundred yards passing two touchdowns,
had a touchdown, run negated by a holding penalty. In
his last five and a half games, Dak Prescott is
now at nineteen touchdowns and two picks. And this real,
(10:34):
this is a heater that has come out of nowhere,
because up until the Rams game, which suddenly went when
he threw four touchdowns, he had just been having a
middling He've been having an okay season. He been he
was five touchdowns and four picks right that the Cowboys
were playing well. But he has been on an absolute
tear to the point where knowing how the media works
(10:55):
and knowing what it's going to be after tonight if
the Cowboys win this game and Dak throws another couple
to whatever it's gonna be, is that you're looking for
an MVP candidate, and suddenly he jumps to the front
because being the quarterback of the Cowboys throwing for three
or four touchdowns every week, which is what he's been doing,
He's gonna jump to the front because nobody else is
having that shit. Look, Mahomes is not having that season.
(11:17):
Two is having a good season, but not on the
heater that Dak is a Dak has captured the front
page headlines with what he's been doing like he flipped
the switch against the Rams. Four touchdowns against the Rams,
three against the Eagles, four against the Giants, two against Carolina,
four against Washington. Two more tonight in the first half.
They haven't gotten the ball yet in the second half.
This has been an unreal heater. And there's definitely things
(11:41):
that I would I know, because I think I figured
out the way to keep Dak playing this well, because
you know, that's what I do for a living. But
you talk about where he's gonna be, and we want
to talk about MVPs now as we're getting closer and
closer to the end of the season, Dak's gonna jump
to the front of that conversation. Well, without doubt, he'd
be one A and then maybe he takes over the
(12:01):
one spot depending on the result of the Eagles and
forty nine Ers game this weekend. When we look at
what Jalen Hurts is, yeah, you know, Hurts has been great,
but he doesn't have the he doesn't have the boy.
I'm doing absolutely everything like Dak is. Look, Hurts is
you know me, I thought Hurts is gonna be the
MVP last year. So I'll take the loss on that
because he was just so great. But the Eagles have
(12:24):
the best roster in the game and they won games
for a long time. This year where Jalen Hurts has
been okay, but he wasn't great. Now the last couple
of weeks, Hurts has turned it up under because he's
a great quarterback. But they also have a great team.
I mean, this is I mean the Eagles again, most
talented roster in the NFL and to even better than
the forty nine ers. Dallas roster is pretty good, but
(12:44):
this is they are completely Dak Prescott driven at driven
and these video game numbers that he's putting up with this,
he's gonna capture the attention because part of it is
you play for the Cowboys, have a year like this,
guess what, you're gonna get more attention. As much attention
you get Jalen and guys stars in the NFL across
the board, We'll find you in places and make sure
(13:05):
you're a star. Aaron Rodgers became a star in Green Bay.
You know you can do that. But Dak's gonna jump
to the top of that list tonight. Well, what's great
is you've got three weeks in a row after this
where you got get tested, because even if people don't
like Buffalo, they're out on Buffalo. Well, he travels to
Buffalo next, and then they're all, I'm sorry, you've got
Philadelphia mixed in there. So you've got a game against
(13:25):
Philadelphia on the tenth. That'll be a Sunday night affair.
And then you're on the road at Buffalo and then
on the road at Miami. So you want to start
getting some old MOE behind you, because at this point,
to a degree, the Cowboys, we still look at them
and they keep we keep saying, well, they're bums layers.
Right at this point, Dak is tied in MVP odds
(13:46):
at last I can see here with two a tongue
of I loa at eight to one. You're looking at
Hurts at plus one forty. My home's still at plus
three point fifty. Lamar Jackson on the bye this week,
he's four to one at plus four hundre. So and
you know, get Dak into a tied in that fourth
slot right now and certainly dominant. He had a touchdown
(14:07):
run that got called back. It'll be his kick a
field goal, it'll be his MVP to loose. That's where
it's the next couple of weeks he can go and
solidify that. Look at that. Uh, but Dak has some
work to do, as Geno Smith has just scampered in
for a touchdown, making a twenty six to twenty lead
for the Seahawks. A twenty seven to twenty lead for
(14:30):
the Seahawks extra point pending. They have just run and
thrown all over this Cowboys defense tonight. It has been
something so all we had to do is besmirch Gino
Smith's name again. Look at what that and all of

(17:28):
I see well, Dak Prescott was just picked on the
goal line. However, a penalty flag and I feel like
there's a penalty on every band play tonight. We already
got fourteen of him for the game. Oh man, like
every play flag now the pedalized teams. The game in
tied at over seven apiece per game coming into this game.
I think I think Carl Cheffer's is doing this game.
(17:51):
I'm pretty sure Jeroon Boger also doing this game. Angel
Hernandez doing this same team coming together, Joe West doing
this game. Nice, you got Cowboy Joe in nicely done.
But the penalty gets called back. So Cowboys do have
the football inside Seattle territory. But again they're down twenty
eight to twenty because Seattle on offense has just been
(18:12):
obliterating the Cowboys defensively tonight. The one thing at least
we have though here on TNF. We got a lot
of points, we got a big game. We're midway through
the third quarter. This ain't Bears Vikings. Sorry buddy, but
it ain't Bears Vikings. True, it's not Bears Panthers from
a Thursday night affair. What team is? What team is?
Speaker 3 (18:30):
The is?
Speaker 1 (18:31):
The is the conduit there? What team is? Everything we
have in common there? Bears Bears, Yeah, Bears Bears we're
living in a world of suck, so we're trying to
find something better. Look, we're gonna rank all two seventy
two at the end of the year. They may be
the worst. Yeah, we're running thirty four, though, we're gonna
fight about them. Look, we're not gonna fight about him four.
(18:52):
We're taking you in with us. Not at least. Our
games come down in the last play every week. Oh,
that is true. That's true. When we play the Jets
and Bears, we blow them out. It came down to
the last play, except the last player in that game
was the punt return for a touchdown in the first quarter.
Then the game was over. Oh that was it. It
was over right there. That's it. The Jets are doubt
seven nothing. They're not coming back from that. So we'll
(19:12):
have more on this game again twenty eight to twenty.
Midway through the third quarter, seedee Lamb's having a big night.
A lot of fantasy points out there for everybody tonight
on Thursday Night football. Meanwhile, I don't know who's having
a worse week in sports than Sports Illustrated. Okay, so
you had the AI controversy. Yeah that you know. They
(19:33):
have writers who aren't real people that are artificially intelligent
creations that have been writing columns for Sports Illustrated for
however long. Well, it's loosely based on people. Yes, well,
I mean they look like people. Hey, I gotta look
like people the rest. This can't be Rogue one where
it looks like, you know, hey, why is the General GRANDMV.
(19:54):
Tarkin blinking from the side of his eyes like it's
it's actual? You know? Well that was the only bad
part of Rogue One because everything else was great. But
I'm like, wow, the technology just just wasn't there. Just
need it in another six months, Just need a little
bit more time, because now it's so smooth. I don't
know why they don't go back and redo those scenes.
If George Lucas was in charge, they would have, Hey,
(20:16):
we're going back and redoing this, and now you're getting
me and now Rogue one is a perfect movie. Now,
you know, Job of the Hut would have a six pack.
They were like, they were like lizards the way they
would talk and their eyes would that's like Tommy Lee
Jones and Men in Black. Uh. The reason he was
eyes was blinking was because he's a lizard, and I
know he's patting so much because I'm so. They have
the AI controversy over the last few days, which is
(20:38):
really embarrassing, right, really embarrassing. That's embarrassing. There's no like, oh, hey,
there's a good side to it, because a lot of
things now in the world. Even if it's like it
seems really embarrassing, there's gonna be thirty percent of people
who are going to defend it, right, So there's nothing
you can do. It's like, okay, it's it's it's right
an antagonist day. The only people defending that are actually
(21:00):
AI people. Now it is time to rise up. It
is time to rise Resistance is futile. So they had
that story and then today they come out with their
sports Person of the Year. Yeah. Look, for a long time,
the Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year, sportswoman now sports person.
The sports Person of the Year was a really big deal.
(21:20):
It was always, Hey, there was a lot of anticipation,
who's the sportsman, woman of the year, the sports person
of the year. And sometimes it would be somebody who
had a great year in sports and won a championship,
or it would be Joe Montana, or it would be
you know, Miguel Cabrera for winning the triple Crown, whatever
would be. And sometimes it's someone who just does something
so great humanitarily for sports that hey, they're they're they're
(21:44):
the sports person of the year. Sports Illustrated now and aside,
this is a bad week because they have decided, hey,
let's go the hot take route. Dion Sanders is your
sports person of the year. Okay, Dion Sanders, I can
get behind now. But this is where it's embarrassing is
that it's embarrassing because Sports Illustrated having to go the
(22:08):
hot take route for attention, because that's basically what they're
They made Deon Sanders sports person of the Year for
the attention they could have made such you could have
made somebody sports person of the year. Hey, well respected,
they win it. No, they went because they knew it
would be a hot take. Well, but he was also
a guy that made people give a damn about September football,
(22:30):
so he gave us a month of teran he was
the September sports Person of the the but he got
people fired a calendar. If you had a calendar, I'd
give him September September he'd be mister September. Other people
for different times and for Sports Illustrated. Right, Not that
I don't like a hot take as much as everybody else,
but seriously, look at Deon Sanders. He had a hot
(22:53):
month and then what's what's happened? The team is four
and eight, They're not going to a Bowl game. Players
are transferring out coach right, coaches are leaving Bay Win
and now you're hearing about all the players who were
talking about when they were unceremoniously pushed out of the door.
When Deon Sanders showed up in Coloradocks, people forget about that.
Then he showed up saying all y'all better hit the
(23:14):
transfer portal. Wow, five months to tell us your story.
So this is this is the guy that they've decided
to be Sports Person of the Year. Now, like I said,
I like a hot take as much as everybody else,
but this is Sports Illustrated. Who was the most proud
sports entity. It was a big deal for a long time.
For fifty sixty years they were and now here they
(23:38):
are with fake writers and we're looking for a hot
take because we need clicks. This is Sports Illustrated, man,
This is like watching your grandfather suddenly say hey, I'm
gonna now put TikTok videos out, Great Grandpa, come on, man,
no TikTok and he monetize it. No TikTok, Grandpa, No ticktok.
It's gonna make him a feel hole. Why not? You
can't do no, just don't do TikTok videos. Okay, just no,
(23:58):
no TikTok videos, right, just grandpa grandpa? No, Okay, my
kids said that already, Dad. No. Uh, that's what Sports
Illustrated is. And now this is what they've referred to. Now.
I got to add Sports Illustrated to my list of
sports Stonehenge teams and institutions because they were so proud
(24:19):
so long ago. But stone like you know, I say,
sports Stonehenge, that were such a big deal so long ago,
and now people don't even understand why they were a
big deal, like Indiana basketball, Nebraska football? Right, why would
he talk? Why were they such a big deal? I
don't understand, Well, you don't understand. A long long time
ago they were really big deal. Yeah, but really, yes
(24:41):
they were. And now they've fallen into disrepair and they
really aren't what they used to be. And now Sports Illustrated,
which was this was it. It was Sports Illustrated was
great reporting. It was telling you things you didn't know
in depth about games, in depth features. But now the
world has evolved a little bit and reporting on sports.
If I want to know something about Dak Prescott, I
don't have to wait for Leemontville's article on Dak Prescott
(25:04):
to come out when they decide to do one. I
can find any bit of information I want about Dak
Prescott going back ten years. So you need to evolve
a little bit. But it's just to see Sports Illustrated
go to the point where we got Ai Riders and
now a hot take for sports Person of the Year
where d On won four games, no Bowl game. Coaches
are leaving, players are leaving, players are decommitting from Colorado.
(25:25):
After it was so on this guy's a sports person
of the year, Like what has he done to show
I'm the sports person of the year. I mean, really,
he had a hot month. He had a hot month,
and he changed college football and everybody was behind him
and he was the story sixteen two, not one, but two.
But it's it's it's not if they did sports Person
(25:46):
of September, that's Dean sander do you remember, I remember
September September. Yeah, it's kind of one of those. They
got my earth winding fire tickets, go ahead, nicely done.
When you try to pull it back and it's the
all right, the coaching, you know, carousel, all right, fire
(26:07):
this man? Well, who you gonna hire in this case?
Was there anything bigger? You had? That meteoric rise? Right?
That was the biggest thing going Colorado football, Dion Sanders.
Everybody wanted a piece of it. One other story in
sports is there for you this year? Bad officiating, the
(26:30):
Jimaharma always sitting on the Emperor Palpatine's throne or the
iron throne. It's Tony Rumo going Jim Jim, Jim Jim, Look, dolly, Jim,
Jim Jim. Hey Jim, you get what you wish for,
Bim Jim Jim. I mean, you could have gone many ways.
You could have gone to I'll give you some examples.
You could have gone to the Spain women's soccer team
(26:53):
that won the World Cup despite the fact everybody quit
because of the the A lot of people that yeah,
I know they hated that guy, and you could have
voted them that. They could have been the sports people persons,
sports people, sports persons. Would it be sports persons more
per person, they would be the sports person of the year.
They're talking about overcoming all kinds of Look, you had
(27:14):
fifteen of the best players in the country saying we
don't want to play in the show, and they still
went on to win the World Cup. Like that's a
pretty big sports present, an indictment of the rest of
the field. What happened to the women's national And I'm
not saying put the US women's national team there, come
on now, but you could have made them the sports
persons people of the year thing with the guy in
the place, Yeah, you could have made them. You could
(27:34):
have could have You could have made Steve Cohen sports
person year because he built the Texas Rangers into a
World Series. I know. I mean, you can go to
Messi and what he's meant for soccer, even though that
died a quick death in the NLS when he got hurt.
But but he got hurt yet, but look look at
(27:56):
what happened, how much money he made and how much
you know, again you're not like me, Yeah, let monetize it,
let's monetize it. But he, like Grandpa would TikTok video.
His jumping to the MLS was a really big It
still is a really big deal. It just happened. He
happened to jump when they only had a handful of
games left and Miami wasn't gonna make the but it
was every night it was hey, messy, messy, messy, messy. Right,
(28:19):
there's for for that kind of attention where things actually
turned out well, Like MESSI came and okay, let's say,
you want to say he had two hot months. Okay,
but the impact he had on sports on MLS is huge. Yeah,
but he had a hot month and everything after that.
He was going to change the paradigm. Don't you remember
the hot take a street and the jackass he amoring
(28:41):
to get within three feet of him. He was the
chosen one to get the audience. It's like when Tim
Tebow was the nicest guy in the world. He was.
Remember if you've had a couple of minutes when Tim
Tebow with Dion Sanders, he became the same thing. Yeah,
a bunch of sycophantic sons. I can't even say what
I want to say. Uh, light it up to get
(29:01):
to the draw and feast off it. And it was
good for business, So everybody jumped up. Or it doesn't
matter if you lost eight of your last night, but
you gotta have some kind of positivity after Oh here,
what happened after that first month? That magazine was published?
Six weeks. It's done, it's done. We're picking Dion in October.
Wait what? Yes? In October I gave the voting m
(29:23):
VP in Major League Baseball. You got a six week
more tour in between the final into the regular season
and finding out Sports Stonehenge. What Sports Illustrated has become
is just it's you hate magazine. I'm embarrassed. I'm embarrassed
for it. I'm embarrassed for what it was. It was
such a big deal and now look at it. We're
hot takes. We got fake writers. I mean that's what
we got. You say that now, Smith went till April.
(29:45):
When the Swimsuit Edition comes out, you'll be off back
on board and they're all gonna be ai people in
the swimsuit edition. People, they're even hotter. We're gonna put

my family right now. I love it. I love it.
Get that disco ball spinning. I gotta bring that back in.
I want to hook up on Christmas Day night. Yeah,
I'm with your day. Why are you saying like it's
(31:59):
wrong hook up with your grandma? But what is what
I told you? Harmon was drinking tonight. I told him
drinking before the show. No, no, I was saying. He
was bonny to you, not him, you jack ass. Oh
I'm just he added grandma after I had already said.
And then you said yeah, And then he said hook
it up with your grandma, and you said yeah. It
(32:20):
was still relating to you. I was ignoring the man
behind the curtain. This is the dangers of the demon
altcohol as you go into your professional life. U. We'll
have more on the Monday Night game still twenty eight
twenty seven or Thursday Night Football. Rather, it's twenty eight
twenty seven Seahawks with the lead over the Dallas Cowboys.
(32:41):
But if you're watching the game tonight, you probably saw
this news earlier in the day. The first big flexing
of the holiday season has happened. Holiday holiday holiday. It's
a holiday season, and the Patriots and Chiefs were set
to face off on Monday Night Football in week fifteen.
That does not happened. That game has been flexed out
(33:03):
and they didn't get flexed out because of the Chiefs.
That game is flexed out going to be broadcast at
one o'clock on Sunday, December seventeenth, Instead, the Eagles and
Seahawks have moved into that primetime slot on ESPN. So
what you're telling me is I should have read the
tea leaves and bet the hell out of the Seahawks
(33:23):
tonight because everybody knew something. This is the first ever
Monday night football flex in the history of flexing. And
there's a couple of things to take away from this.
This is how bad the Patriots are that the Chiefs
and Patrick Mahomes can't save the Patriots from being flexed down.
Taylor Swift RSVP'd no in that game. If you ever
(33:44):
wanted to realize that this is going to be the
last year of Belichick, the last year of the Patriots died,
and the last year of everything. Two big things from
this Number one, how pissed off do you think Bob
Kraft is that the Patriots got flexed out of Monday
Night Football? I mean, he's the second most influential over
besides Jerry Jones. You flex me out of Monday Night
for I know we stick more playing the Chiefs. Man,
(34:06):
this is Monday what I've done for the league for
the last twenty years. You're flexing me out of Monday
Night Football. Yeah, sorry, Bob, Sorry, you're out. You're kind
of out. Yeah. I think he's not gonna be happy. No,
he's gonna be pitched. Next time he's following in the rankings,
Kronky takes over. He's at the two slot. Next time
Godell needs a favorite from Bob Kraft. Forget it, forget
(34:26):
you flexed us O Monday night. No, no, no, you
dave certainly got data and information on Bob Kraft that
can surface back up. You kidd me, you have flexed
does out. But here's the you know, there's that h
you know state that looks like a kind of a boot. Yeah, okay, sure, Yeah,
there's some stuff down there that people can dredge back
(34:48):
up if they wanted to. I old Bob Kraft from Italy. No,
you said, boots Italy? What do we what do we
call Florida? Then Flora's Florida Peninsula, the peninsula. It's gotta go.
I'm thinking about it. What happened in Italy? Bob crafts
off because that Wow, that's breaking news for Mike Harmon
right now. It's an international But here's my favorite part
(35:12):
is that Amazon put up a graphic promoting uh next
week next week's game, which the Patriots are involved in.
And here's how bad it is for the Patriots. Usually
they put up the team and the star player. Sure, right,
there's nobody to put up. There's nobody to put up
(35:33):
for the for the Patriots. So they put up a
picture of Belichick.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Yeah, but look on the other side.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
You know what's on the other side of the graphic though,
it's t J. Watt. Yeah, but normally they put up
offensive guys. Yea the time, you're putting up an offense
ave right now, it's two defensive wizards. You're not gonna
put Jalen Warren up. You're not gonna put Deontay Johnson.
You're gonna put up a tiny bleeding I'm gonna put
Tenny pick it up because he stinks stay in four
hundred plus yards. Don't you know how great that it was?
(36:00):
You put up a defensive Player of the Year guy. Okay,
now it's not your ye, it's not great, no tell
me wrong. But TJ. Watt looks like like what like
like I don't know, looks like a bunch of gold
bricks compared to we're just gonna put Belichick's picture up there.
It was pretty good. I wanted to I wanted to
watch Belichick coach. That's what I want to see. It
(36:21):
gives a lot of screen time because there's a lot
of time between plays if you're going, what the hell
just happened? The Patriots are like, they're becoming a sports
Stonehenge overnight. Like, I gotta explain generation Z has no
idea the Patriots used to be this very again, yeah,
I just think somebody who is seventeen right now that
is just getting into their big foot. They got the Patriots.
They won with Brady, Tom Brady and every they won
(36:42):
super Bowls, the Patriots. You gotta explain that gen Z
has no idea the Patriots were this good. Life comes
at you fast. I mean, this is a this is
a sports Stonehenge overnight overnight. I did like that graphic though.
That was a good picture of Belichick. Bellot's put picture
of Bellichick up. We don't have a single player that
(37:04):
we can isolate. Oh my goodness, I put up from
Andre Stevenson. You could have everybody knows, yeah, and then
you would have had well, if they don't play fantasy,
you would have had to explain, now that's true. Uh,
put another touchdown on the board for the Seahawks. Another
touchdown catch for dk metcalf Gee, you know the night
(37:24):
he is having. Coming up next right here, Jason and Mike,
