people that are locked in on Fox Sports Radio. Oh,
we're in safe Harbor, look, Glen led We're there, Gleg.
I'm just happy, happy we're there. Happy with there. Hey,
you interpreted my excitement. However, you went somebody saying that's

(01:23):
what happened. Hey, Mets one tonight, buddy, doesn't mean it's
not a curse. We had to win tonight. We is
a borderline. Now we gotta win tomorrow and it's four letters.
I mean it, man, this like you don't have to
win tomorrow. The level to make the playoffs, The level
of anxiety I have this week is just insane, like
it's in the playoffs, when your teams are in the playoffs.

(01:46):
I think this is pretty common that you get that
level of anxiety where you're just waiting all day for
the game and I'm useless until the game starts, like
like the Mets last. Let know, I could go out
and run errands and go to lunch and do some things.
I could go to Costco, I could I could walk
the dog. I could walk I could walk Benny. I
could drop something off at school for Zoe, which I

(02:08):
had done it. I could eat at lunch, like if
the Mets play like last year, the Mets playing at
four o'clock, and like if I get up at like
ten thirty eleven o'clock, wiss, what do you want to do?
We got time to this?

Speaker 3 (02:17):
I go.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
I can I'm locked in on the Mets. There's not
I can't do anything today. The last time you woke
up before ten thirty, I'm just gonna sit today. I'll
go up before ten thirty, did you. Yeah, then I
took a nap later, but we'll go up before ten
thirty today. Yeah. It was uh, well, hey man, it's
that time in your life. Man, if your kids don't
look your kids are still younger, so you still have

(02:39):
that yeah right, yeah, but at this point, I mean,
I'm old man. If the kids don't need something, they're
off to work or back to school. Dog's been walked, dinners,
you know, doing this thing. I nap. I'm up late.
I'm Philip seymer Hoffmann. I stay up late. I do
a lot of speed. I'm almost famous. I stay up late.

(03:00):
I do a lot of speed. Oh yeah, yeah, mixed
with cos for me, mixed with car No, but that's
his life, almost famous. I think I stay up late,
so it's called me. I'm always up. I'm always up.
I'm play like, I'm ap plate, so I sleep a
little bit later. I can't fall asleep before one. Yeah, no,
I'm a plate. I'm reading, I'm doing I'm watching TV
or something. I mainly I'm reading. Oh that's that's that's
that's my reading time. But like, like today, I'm just

(03:24):
because it's a playoff week and I'm like up early
and I'm stressed out like crazy for the bleeping Pirates
and the Reds. Then the Reds win, they pull back
a home run in the ninth inning, and they stay
alive for a day. Now I'm like, okay, now the Mets,
we have to beat the Cubs. Is I'm just so
fun It's not enough. I'm full of anxiety during the game.
It's the waiting for the game, where once in a
while I'll get a ten minute spurt of oh, yeah,

(03:46):
the game's not for the two and a half hours.
I'm okay for ten minutes, but then it picks back right.
But it's like it resets and it picks back up again. Yeah.
But the problem is it's not just your game, right,
It's a whole tapestry of things that are happening here.
The fact that you had to pay attention wrapped attention
to every pitch of a Pirate's Reds game. Yeah, you're
doing the Lord's work. I mean, I'm sweating out Pirates

(04:08):
Reds man, that's my life. In the middle of September.
You're sweating out Pirates. Get you a picture of you
sweating it out right next to Livy Dunn. What is
wrong with this guy? You're sweating out Pirates Reds in September. God,
a bet does he have going on? So yeah, I'm
kind of useless for that, right. It's stuff. It does, Stimey.
I mean, it's like a football Sunday, or if you're

(04:30):
a big college football fan, if your team doesn't play
untill later on in the day they're in one of
the primetime windows. It does. It mutes a lot of
what you can do the rest of the day because
you're jacked up or you're tailgating outside and now you're
truly useless. On a whole other level. Well, the thing
is football. Usually I'm okay because I'm waking up right
away and we're playing, so I'm like okay, like I'm

(04:52):
waking Oh yeah, I'm sure you are at that ten
o'clock ten o'clock or usually on college football. I'm waking
up and we're playing. It's okay, It's not a lot
like wait until four thirty. I'm like, come on, man,
I'm itchy. I need I need to get I need
the game. This this, this anxiety is too much. This
is just too much for me.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
Man.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
I can't wait. Yeah, you know what, I have proof
that the walls he yours. Though you know, a lot
we were talking about your experience of Nebraska and Michigan
at COSM, got a lot of ads for Sunday night football.
Come watch the Cowboys and the Packers. I'm not gonna
go watch like a person's obliterating Dak Prescott. According to Dak,

(05:31):
it's not Dak versus Mike Ups.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
It really is.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
It's not versus Mike Ups. No, it really really is.
It's Dak versus one that's so big that if Jerry
Jones had the physical ability to run onto the field
to stop Mike him from attacking out and I would
go out before the game and show some of the
dbs and hit rotation in my shorts and joe shoe. Guys,
is how to put the Cowboys shorts on get out

(05:54):
and said this you open up, you's gone. When you
cover one and want to close on the sideline, this
is how you do it. Okay, let's let's let's go.
What point in the pregame do we get the deck
pregame ritual of that little waggle thing that he does.
That'll be the first shot we see pregames that it. Yeah,
I mean, really, he's gonna need to move those hips tonight.
Maybe he's gonna avoid this guy Number one Micah Parsons

(06:16):
and the Packers. Now, we got Jay Glazer coming up
in about fifteen minutes, all the latest coming off the
Thursday Night football Again. The only show Jay does is
us here on Fox Sports Radio. He's always a must listen.
We got him coming up in about ten minutes with us.
But uh, look tonight watching the Cardinals lose this game
to the Seahawks. Right, we talked about Kyler Murray. More
on him later on this hour. Kyler Murray, Sam Darnold. Uh,

(06:41):
for the Cardinals to lose this game a big part
of because they couldn't execute the kickoff with twenty eight
seconds left in the game. All right, to take you
back here a little bit. The Seahawks do a really
smart thing. Right, Mike McDonald does a really smart thing
with the Cardinals sitting in a third, fourth and goal
time situation. He knew, Okay, let me call time out

(07:03):
because I want the ball back after they get in
the end zone. Right, because it's twenty to thirteen. Just
in case we have time, I want the ball back.
Turned out to be an incredible move.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Right.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Another week, another primetime game where one coach does something
really smart, the other one has something incredibly stupid done
on special teams. It's not just the Bears and Chad
Ryland kicks off after the Cardinals tie the game, and
he doesn't kick the ball into the kicking zone, which
is just inside the twenty yard line, between the twenty

(07:31):
yard line and the goal line. It's all you gotta do, right,
It's all you gotta do. Give it to the twenty
yard and the goal line. You got fifty three yards
to work with, all the way across the field. That's
all you gotta do. Twenty eight seconds left to go.
You just don't want to do. What give him good
field position coming off the kickoff? Not only do they
give him a good field position, but they give them
the ball the forty yard line. Because the ball hits

(07:52):
outside of the kicking zone, it's a penalty and the
Seahawks take over at their own forty yard line with
a time out. They had all kinds of time to
get into field goal range. And look, we gave Sam
to all the credit in the world. Not rushed at all.
Hits Jackson Smith, the Jigma on the big back shoulder
fade Smith, the Jigma gets out of bounds. Like watching

(08:12):
the execute. That was really something to see. Jason Myers.
It's a fifty two yard field goal to win the game.
But a lot of this is made possible because they
biffed the kickoff and I had one sixty square yards dude,
you have so I mean, that's so on brand for
the Cardinals to lose. And I get there's new rules
with a kickoff this year, and there's always going to

(08:34):
be new rules trying to keep it a play and
make it something good and make it something that matters.
And right now Roger Goodell is batting himself on the
back going Hey, two big primetime games week one with
the Bears and the Vikings and tonight with this the
kickoff was a big pay pep. We're talking about it.
Let's pat ourselves on the back. Everybody's talking about the kickoff.
I get it, but wow, you got to be able

(08:54):
to kick the ball where it needs to go. You
gotta be able to kick it in a twenty yard
and you're not kicking it. From Chad Ryland watching across
the field, you could see how upset he was, but
not nearly as mad as Gannon and the and the
Cardinals were Like immediately Kyler Murray sat down, you saw
the look on his face like did that really just happen?
And I wanted to say, dude, you're a Cardinal. It's
really on brand. But after completely on brand for the

(09:16):
Cardinals for that to happen, after you battle back, I
think of all the things that went wrong, and I
know they got a couple of penalties early that we
were beneficial to them, but you had the drops and
the issues going on with Marvin Harrison Junior. You go
into halftime, Okay, fine, you're still in this game, and
then you battle back and you tie it in the
final minute, big drive, big moment, big momentum at home,

(09:40):
and then the air just goes out of the building. Yeah, yeah,
as the ball, well, what what about twenty two yard longe?

Speaker 2 (09:47):
Ish?

Speaker 1 (09:48):
No, what do we see? The same thing happened with
the Jets on Sunday the block field goal return for
a touchdown. Aaron Glenn is dancing the earth, wind and fire.
What happens on the kickoff thirty one yard return? Tampa
Bay is in business with a minute and half live limit,
forty five left to go. And now you're talking about
field goal kickers and Myers, we talked about it before
the ball went up. Two thirds of his attempts for
his career, he's forty four of sixty six from beyond

(10:10):
fifty yards. Look, we talk about this. This is the
best era of field goal kicking we've ever seen in
the NFL, and it just gets better every year. Guys
hit fifty yard field goals. Now you expect them to
hit it, which is why we were talking about the
change of how teams are trying to defend in the
blocks were once upon a time was fifty yards whatever,
Just don't get a penalty, right, don't do anything dumb.

(10:31):
Now it's like, wait, that's almost automatic for a bunch
of these guys, So we actually have to try to
disrupt it. There used to maybe be in the NFL
three or four kickers that from fifty yards out were
pretty good, sure, right, like guys, hey, fifty yards out,
these guys get kid like Justine per get his prayer. Yeah, yeah,
Jason Elam, you know somebody you get out there. These

(10:51):
guys were all really good right from fifty yards like, hey,
don't forget that. And it was always oh, they got
such a big weapon, don't forget Their kicker is Elam,
their kicker praterer, and he can hit it from here.
Now there's twenty guys, yeah, probably at least twenty guys
that will hit from fifty and they're not even one
of the top twenty kickers in the game, but they
get it from fifty and probably half the leak in

(11:13):
it from sixty. Right. This is why you know you're
gonna see teams that need to be more aggressive getting
after long kicks and not just worry about hey, let's
back off. We don't want to give him a penalty
and have him kick it from ten yards earlier, which
all from forty two yards. Now, you got to treat
a fifty two yard field goal like it's a forty yard.
Let's say Ryland earlier in the game hit a fifty
seven yard er. Yeah, everybody can do it, and he

(11:34):
can't kick it with it. He can do it one
thousand and sixty square yard. And that's why you can't
kick it outside of the landing zone because you only
need to get to the forty yard line to be
in field goal range. The other team's forty. The Seahawks
had a timeout and twenty eight seconds to go twenty yards. Well,
remember the tackle down the sideline, huge play right, Smith

(11:55):
and Jigma with the catch and the reach, and he
was able to get out of bounds without the the
knee hitting because original look was all right, he's down
because he's contact, He's like no, he was able to
stretch it out of bounds, got them. That's six seconds
that ended up being instrumental to getting that game winning
field goal tryoff. So I'm thinking, you know every year
I run my coach weekend win. Yeah, the clinic I

(12:19):
run where we do clock management. Right, every it's ten
thousand dollars. Now it's twenty thousand dollars a coach. It's
a bigger deal. Twenty thousand dollars a coach. We go
over how to the final two minutes of game clock situations,
when to call time out, when not to call time out,
when you have to call time out. And it's a
great weekend. We did just like Top Gun, right, we
do real life on field situations. Yeah, there's golf, lot

(12:41):
of simulation. There's golf, like there is for any any
we can get away. There's golf. There's a spot. I mean,
there's a lot of stuff going on.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Now I think I want to offer, hey, for an
extra five grand, stay into Monday and Sunday afternoon Sunday night,
we do the new kickoff rules and what you can
and can't do in the end of wae. You have
to make sure the ball is so you can say
so for twenty grand, you stay for the whole week
and we do end of game situations, but you stay
an extra five grand. No, Hey, I'm one of those guys.

(13:08):
I'm one of the coaches. I'm staying till Monday morning.
Oh okay, that's great, and from like three o'clock Sunday,
which is when all the other coaches leave. Hey, the
ones that want to stay and do that, I stay
and do that with them. Yeah, I mean because early
in the weekend. The physical challenge to you know, get
to know Icebreaker is you dig the pit so that
we can you know, cook the pit. It's so to
be ready by Monday lunch. Uh yeah, there is food.

(13:30):
There is food, yeah, and lodging and everything else. Yeah,
and we know we do. That's why I said there
is golf because guys want to come and just loosen
up and play golf a little bit. But we still
do stuff on the batas, right, we do stuff in Yeah,
mister Bond. No, you have to tell me how you're
going to do it again, mister Bond. Uh No, But
I want to be able to you know, we go golf.
I also throw stuff out there with them. Here's a
situation while you're standing over this putt, Hey, one forty

(13:52):
seven left to go. You have the ball, the other
team has one time out. What can you do? Hey,
oh wait a minute, now you're putting me on the
spot here for this, right, we don't standing over that
one hour speech about how to react after a big play. Yeah,
well that's that didn't do We need an hour or

(17:22):
Sam Darnald The epic fail of the Cardinals kickoff that
helped the heroics of Sam Darnald. Nobody better to talk
to than a guy we got to spend some time
with a little bit earlier in the show NFL on
Fox insider Jay Glazer, who joined us. Great conversation, great stuff.
Always must listen, Jay, what's happening about? How are you doing? Great?

Speaker 2 (17:44):
Man? Who thought we'd be talking about kickers so much
in this game like this because Myer's offense we missed
the first one, and then the Cardinals kicker kind of
botches that kickoff and Meyer comes up big there. But man,
what a what a game? And this is I didn't
know this until today. John Schneyder told me if they won,
it's his one hundred and fiftieth victory because he joined

(18:06):
the Seahawks. Wow, there you go.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Wow, that's pretty We saw that ISO of him during
the game. Jay, It's like he had nobody around him.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
It's like he didn't, he didn't want to be, but
that's not.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
You know, the thing that gets me Jay in this
is that obviously coming into this season, hey was Sam
Darnold's still going to be good changing teams? Did he
find the right offense in Minnesota? And I just can't
get over how he has fit in, how accurate he
is with the football, his how how confident he is,
Like I didn't think he would step right in, and
he has become an extremely solid quarterback for a team

(18:41):
that's just solid all around.

Speaker 2 (18:43):
And look, General Collins deserves a ton of credit for that,
but also so does Kyle Shanahan. Like Kyle, you know,
you look at what you know he do, and look
with like Kyle doing with Mac Jones right now, right
and he just gets the ball out of those guys
hands so much quicker and teaching them to do that.
And also, guys, look at Baker Matro right now. Baker
worked with Tom McVay and all of a sudden he
became a different kind of guy. So I think when

(19:04):
you get with these quarterback developers and you know you
have there's one thing about his coaches who can call plays,
and there's another thing about coaches who could develop quarterbacks.
There's not too many of them in the league. Sean
mcvay's won, Kyle Shanahan has won, Kevin O'Connell is one.
But yeah, you kind of looked at it, you know, Sam,
and you're like, oh, I was just this a product

(19:25):
of because Kevin O'Connell's so good at what he does,
and Sam Baker, Sam Sam Baker, Dan Donald showing that
you he kind of he I think the page and
the light, the page change, the light went on when
he was with Kyle, and he just took it round
it and learned an awful lot with Kevin O'Connell. And
I don't think it's.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
Any looking back truly, just about excising bits of the
Jets that are in yet over time. Jay is really
what I think it comes down to.

Speaker 2 (19:51):
Yeah sorry, But if you put you're Gino Smith or
you're Sam Donald, it's like, yeah, sorry, bit.

Speaker 1 (19:58):
By bit, you slupped it off with every stop. On
the other side, I think as a collective NFL community,
we were all wondering when we were going to see
Marvin Harrison make a catch himself in the second half.

Speaker 2 (20:11):
How emotional was that touchdown? You're letting, oh my gosh,
please because you like you feel for it. Listen, I
talked so much guys right about the six inches between
our ears, and I talk about the mental health, and
I talk about in performance, I talk how do you
get the most out of people? But also when there's
a hiccup in those six inches between your ears, it's
so hard for guys to be able to put it

(20:32):
aside and get through it. You know, you've got to
the emotional to play this game to a certain extent,
but man, those emotions can help you, and they could
really get in your way. And it seemed like the
first couple of weeks they're you know, just getting his way.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
Just he was.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
You saw a couple of times today, a couple of
plays where he was just either her on the wrong
route or he just stopped, or it just didn't seem
like he was all kind of there of like, man,
what am I weren't sure right, And I don't know
what led to the whether that's were other sure it
was just down himself or I tell a combination of both.

(21:07):
And to see and get that touchdown, I mean, you
know you saw the emotions he just that on one
knee he's like almost like yeah, thank you God. It's
it's like a baseball player with the yips, and it's
like you get over it, because after that, they kept
going to them and credit to them. They're like, Okay, hey,
we're gonna keep going and now we saw that. Now

(21:27):
we're gonna keep food between your free and your feed
you and two other big catches after that.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
You know, it's funny. I see that and hear you're
talking about and I think back to your bit on
NFL on Fox Sunday about your stuff with Drew Brees
about how trying to be great is really lonely. You
talk about the six inches between your between your ears.
It's really lonely up there.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
Yeah, listen, the I always tell my guys, man, the
blueprint for greatness is the secret. It's really not a secret. Finally,
who the best isn't do more than them. But see,
it's the hours you put in a work that no
one's watching. That's really what it is, right And we guys,
we'll do the work when you know camera's on this that.
But those hours and hours and hours, and you know, yeah,

(22:06):
that true briesting guy is incredible because for people who
didn't see it. You have going in retail stoyer.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
Yeah, go ahead, absolutely, Okay, people didn't see it.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
So Sean Dayton and I are down in New Orleans
on a Friday night. It's like nine thirty at nine
forty five at night, something like that, and Sean forgotten
something back of the office, so he's like, oh, we
gotta go back in the office. I thought it was
forty five minutes away. Sea and I are ineborated, so
it seemed like forty five minutes, I guess. But people
were like, it's not forty five, it's twenty five. I'm like,

(22:36):
all right, Twitter, shut the hell up. Whatever it's you know.
The part of the story is we showed up to
the saintsysode around ten o'clock at night. Now mind you,
everyone else was gone that day, but probably two to
thirty something like that. They have a quick practice in
the morning, lunch, and gods are gone Tuesday at ten o'clock.
He didn't know we were coming back, and we come

(22:57):
and meet the building. There's one light on it. The
tight Ends room wasn't the quarterback room tight Ends room,
and there's Drew Shipping himself watching film, taking all these
notes and I'm like, dude, what are you doing here?
And he just looks up me and he kind of
shruggs and he goes Sometimes trying to be great is lonely.
And I'm like, dude, I'm so stealing that from you.
I have. I wrote about it and breaka little facts actually,

(23:20):
but yes, it's those hours and hours and hours so
when the bad times do hit you, you're able to
fall back onto your training. You know, whenever people go
through slumps or whatever things you're certain like you know,
inside of cage, we're always telling guys like, man, things
aren't going well, just man, just fall back on your training.

(23:40):
You've already done this, You've already done the work. Just
lean into it. And that's where you know a guy
like Marvin Harrison, I know he works, but man, again,
the power of that six inches between your ears, when
it gets in the way, he can get in the
way of a lot. Well.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
One of the big tests we'll see this week, Week four,
Brian Dable makes the change exit dark, going to get
the start for the Giants. Uh, tough task right away
against these Los Angeles Chargers come in three.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
And certainly I was like I was, like I thought
you liked Jackson dark.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
Well Jay after the Saints, he's got you know, he's
got the Eagles twice as there's not a real.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
Sut there, no no but but you know, look obviously
they are looking at go, who's gonna give us the
biggest I think the biggest chance for consistency. One thing
of Russell does not give you a consistency. And you
know what, here's what happened to Russell in Pittsburgh. He
was doing fine when he was listening to what you know,
ARTI Smith wanted him to do. And then I think

(24:41):
Russell bought into his headlines and he all of a
sudden wanted to let Russ cook and like, don't let
Russ cook. Man, just just do what they asked. Don't
do anything else but that. And he wants to let
Russ cook. And you know, he has a lot of
people over the years, him and his crew, and man,
they get a lot of media people to buy into

(25:02):
all stuff and let Russ cook and oh he has
never gotten an MVP vote and all that garbage and
just do what the coaches want. And it worked last
year with Pittsburgh. It was fine until he decided not
to until he walked to do more, and I'm guaranteed's
going on with the Giants too, Like he worked well

(25:22):
against Dallas and all of a sudden he's like, all right, no,
I'm gonna show what I can do. You don't have
you show what you could do by doing what they want?
And that's it. And yeah, listen if you can't make
it work with uh Sel Payton by Tomlin Art Smith

(25:43):
finding all who else I'm missing there? But and obviously
the NP Carroll, I think Ruff needs to look at
it and go. He needs to look inside himself and okay,
how was I the problem? Like you have all these coaches?
Oh and even before teamp Payton, Look, you got to

(26:03):
look inside yourself and go, where was I the issue?
Because there's four different places now will last four? I
have not succeeded. So if I want to I want
to do well, I've got to really self scout and
go where can I change? But he hasn't work. I
think he could do it. But he needs to, you know,
I think take a harsh look at himself and go

(26:25):
everything I've done the past when I was successful early
that was a different Russell Wilson. So what hasn't worked
here that I keep doing, and can I check my
ego to make sure that I can make those changes.
I don't see it happening because I don't think Rusk
looks at it like he's the issue. But I don't

(26:47):
know if it was me. Man, if I couldn't get
to go in there with Temp Payton and my Goblin
and now Brian Navol, I've got to look inside myself
and go, Okay, it can't be those three guys. But
you know what I mean, it can't be everybody else.
It can't always be everybody else. And that's also part
of being a pro. Is Hey, when I'm the issue,

(27:09):
how do I get out of this? What do I do?
How I work out of this? How do I work
myself out of it? So you know, I was, yeah,
there's other stuff there also again which rough, so it's
kind of like, you know, I'm sure they didn't want
Jackson yet, which his heart stands were coming up. But also, hey, man, listen,

(27:30):
justin Herbert's first game ever, he had twenty seconds ago
and he's playing the Chiefs and they're like, hey, Pyra
Taylor pumptured along. Yeah with an ejection, go in uh
you're in and it's worked out okay for him.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
Hey, lastly, Jay, I know how much you're on top
of and I you know you've talked about your life
is an inside everything you do. But I gotta did
you know that Sewn Alexander was going to have his
fourteenth kid? Him and his wife Like, Okay? When I
heard that they say he's got We're gonna have fourteen kids.
I can't get over that.

Speaker 2 (28:01):
There are so many things I can say right now,
and you know what, I don't want to be that inside.
I'm good.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
He's on Twitter at je Glazer, that is at Jay
Glazer NFL, on Fox you have on Sunday everything.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
There's like a seven eleven near his house right like something? Man?
That is I don't know.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
Yeah, that's a walk off jay to.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
I was gonna get myself in trouble.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Be good, buddy. We'll talk to you next week. I
love you, Wizardy, Be good buddy, man. What wouldn't answer
about Sean Alexander fourteen kids? I just can't get over.
And again, Jay Glazer doesn't do any other shows. You
listen to Jay right here with us every Thursday after
tnf uh. I love the knuckleheads, I believe is what
it is. There's the yeah, there's the there's the Hey,

(28:51):
I'm so tired. How do you, you know, have fourteen kids.
I'm so tired with one kid. I'm so tired with
two kids. But what I want to know is, like,
what is it average day like with fourteen kids that
have to get different places, whether it's to soccer practice
or a recital or a singing lesson or like well,
like how is how has that not been a reality show?

(29:13):
You know, sweet Sewn Alexander and his thirteen kids with
the Alexander thirteen whatever it is, the sweet Sweet Sean
thirteen and how's the real MVP Sewn Alexander. I can't
imagine what a house is like and the number of
people that have to be they have to have like
what at least two people helping them many you got
a lot of family that could be around, Like this

(29:34):
is where you get into that fuzzy man. But I
mean think about it, Like we moved out here to California.
We didn't have any family here. I know a lot
of folks like, well how do you get stuff done?
It's like mom, damn yeah, yeah, yeah, Like you know
the old It takes a village. Some folks have that
building in village and the family goes along with it.

(29:54):
Maybe Sean Alexander's got a little of that, or maybe
you've got a lot of higher health. I mean, I
can't I can't imagine how you go through a whole day.
You get to see all of your kids and spend
quality time. Do you do try to get like one moment?
I had one moment with kid number seven. That's it,
you know, I mean like I seven? Yeah, Well, what

(30:15):
do you think you're doing before ahead? Right before it
passed out? He didn't talk to me for about three years.
Why did you not get along?

Speaker 3 (30:20):
No?

Speaker 1 (30:21):
Get along?

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Great?

Speaker 1 (30:21):
Just there were too many people. How there's other people around.
I designed stadium seating, like you're going to the movies.
I was going to reserve one of those thirteen seats.
I was one of those kids who was low maintenance.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
I was able.

Speaker 1 (30:32):
I was very self motivated. You have to talk to me.
He didn't talk to me from seventh grade until midway
through my senior year. I got expanded, he got more body.
There's a lot going on there, man. Think about the
food prep. If there's any allergies that any of them.
Oh my goodness, Like I'm just pictured like in a
movie that I take the They just come and take

(30:52):
the bag of lunch, take the right lunch, take your
right lunch, take the right lunch. And then you know,
one kid will play a joke on the other one
and put other stuff in and trade and yeah, there's
a lot of trading going. I really that's a show. Like,
that's a show. I'd want to see thirteen kids. I'm
in Sean Alexander is the processing of it all, him
and Philip Rivers. I want to see a show where
they start a baseball team, because he's got thirteen going
on fourteen, Philip Rivers has ten. I think, So that's

(31:15):
a full baseball team. That's all twenty two with that
sewn Alexander, five starting pitchers, a full bullpen, five outfielders,
five infielders, two catchers, and emergency piece.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Shit.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
But think about it, that's the Well that's got to
be a new Good Film reviews show with a former
top level running back and a potential Hall of Fame quarterbacks. No,
it's actually both of them raising their kids. All twenty
two exit out about a Fresca exit swalling down the
Jason Smith Show with my bes friend Mike harmon time

(31:48):
how to find out what's trending in the wide world
of sports with someone who's never been called the Philip
Rivers of Fox Sports Radio. Nope, because she likes to
curse too much. It's Monty Belagya. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (31:58):
I'm also like, very far away from the many kids
he has, so I'll never be like Philip Rivers.

Speaker 7 (32:04):
Okay, never, okay never.

Speaker 6 (32:07):
I'm closer to being an NFL Hall of Famer than
I am to be like a parent. You know what
I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
I thought that it takes one.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
I just want to say.

Speaker 1 (32:18):
I just want to say, you're with somebody, right, yes,
but okay, you've been with your boyfriend for a long time,
right yeah? No, I want to think there's a better
chance of you.

Speaker 5 (32:27):
Really, isn't that really?

Speaker 1 (32:33):
It really is?

Speaker 7 (32:34):
Okay, but you know, I guess yes is say never,
but no, I'll say never. Seahawks improved to three.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
So if you do make the Hall of Fame, I
get to present you at the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 7 (32:44):
I'll say, good, yes, Okay, that's a deal. That's the deal.

Speaker 1 (32:47):
The contributors wing It's.

Speaker 8 (32:50):
Seahawks improved to three and one after defeating the Cardinals
in Arizona twenty three to twenty.

Speaker 6 (32:55):
Kicker Jason Myers hit the fifty two yard field goal
to walk it off.

Speaker 7 (32:59):
Here is head coach Mike McDonald.

Speaker 3 (33:01):
I just saw him coming in here, and he's just
I've seen this guy play golf. I mean, he's he's
a stud bro. You can he just he's like ice
in his veins. And I mean we knew, we knew
he was would make that kick. And I think the
whole sideline knew.

Speaker 7 (33:14):
Because he's a golfer, he knew nice in his veins.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
Tower we saw the pre kick video of him with
the smelling salts to really jack him saying so that
that was Big D getting ready for the Ryder Cup
this weekends.

Speaker 7 (33:26):
Which starts at seven to ten Eastern time.

Speaker 6 (33:28):
By the way, if you bet on the United States
or the World United States, okay, good, sure.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
Yes us US.

Speaker 8 (33:35):
Arizona struggled offensively in the first half, only scoring three points,
but came alive in the second even tied the game
with twenty eight seconds left in regularly in regulation, but
Arizona's kickoff after that was short of the landing zone,
it results in a penalty.

Speaker 6 (33:48):
Seahawks got the ball in their forty yard line on
their own forty yard line led to the game winning
field goal. Kyler Murray ended twenty seven and forty one
two hundred yards, two touchdowns, two interceptions, All of those
interceptions in the first half if one of them came
off the hands of Marvin Harrison.

Speaker 7 (34:01):
Junior.

Speaker 6 (34:02):
Sam Darnold ended eighteen of twenty six, two hundred and
forty two yards and eight touchdown. Baseball Well, the Tigers
snapped their a game losing streak with the forty two
win over the Guardians. Cleveland and Detroit are tied again
at the top of the AL Central, but Cleveland owns
a tiebreaker, so right now, the Astros are technically one
game back of Detroit for the final waldcard spot in
the AL As.

Speaker 7 (34:21):
They beat the a State eleven to five. Yankees beat
the White Sox five three.

Speaker 6 (34:24):
While the Blue Jays outscored the Red Sox six to one,
so New York and Toronto are still tight at the
top of the AL East.

Speaker 7 (34:29):
Mets defeated the Cubs eight to five.

Speaker 6 (34:31):
Short soft Francisco Lindor became the fifth player this season,
thirty thirty player this season, thirty home runs, thirty stolen
bases after his home run today, and the Dodgers. They
won the division after shutting out the Diamondbacks eight zero,
red Stale live beating the Pirates two to one. So
New York has a one game lead on Cincinnati and
a two game lead on Arizona for the final Waldcart
spot in the National League. And the Lakers have extended

(34:53):
the contract of head coach JJ Redick. Why, I'm not sure.
He signed a four year deal last summer and they
gave him an extension.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
Where the hell is the guy going? And he loves me,
so it's fine, it's good. I'm glad he's around. We're
gonna have fun sparring for the next few years like
we did last year. We're gonna have fun doing that.
Let's get that extension as well. Let's go.

Speaker 7 (35:14):
Thank you very much, mama, Yes, have a good night.
Thanks for the fries in the ranch.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
