Speaker 2 (00:22):
You're listening to the best of the Odd Couple with
Chris Bruson and Ron Harker.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
But let's get right to it, show hail Tony. He's
done it, and I'm gonna say, oh something, here we
is here, here, hold on, let me just are you
ready for this?
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Brace mine?
Speaker 4 (00:39):
So let me turn around look at you because it's
about to be blaspheming.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
I mean, he has the right. No one's ever done it.
He's just cemented that he's going to win the National
League MVP. It all counts. No one's saying that he
didn't do it. He's put in the work and this
is the situation that's in. But let's just call it
what it is. Okay, Shoe Hayes fifty to fifty and
now he's got fifty home on fifty one stolen bases.
(01:05):
Its fool, Gayzy Calvin. It's fool, Gayzy. It is not
real from this standpoint. The basers are too big. He's
sliding in the pizza boxes at second base. They're closer
at first, right, the bag is bigger and closer at second.
(01:25):
That's why no one's ever had fifty to fifty because
last year I said the same thing about Ronald Lacuna
Junior when we had seventy some odd stolen bases. Imagine
if Ricky Henderson and some of you are Lou Brock
and some of the great bat Ricky Henderson might have
had two hundred stolen bases, you can only throw over twice.
I mean, shoe a has a ninety two percent steel rate.
(01:49):
Two percent, that's ridiculous. So all I'm saying is he's
a great player. I'm not ordering the pooh pooh platter
as far as him and say and he's not great
because he's a great player. But this fifty to fifty
is tainted and for Gayzy, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
So first off, you're the first thing you said was
fifty to fifty, so you can't just leave out the
other portion of it, meaning, okay, he gets fifty one
stolen bases, but he only gets thirty two home runs
or or vice versa. The fact that he's able to
do both of these shows how ridiculous he is coming
off injury. And I know it's not injury necessarily that
it affects him with hitting and running, But he's coming
off injury, he's on a new team and he's doing
(02:32):
something no one else has ever done. You gotta give
the man credit for that. I will conceive the basis.
I mean, there's no way around that. The bases are
absolutely big.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Does to give him an advantage, Yeah, it's a disappints
the same other thousands of people in baseball and advantage
and he's the only one doing it. Yes, but other
guys we had earlier this year, Ellie de la Cruz
was on pace to steal one hundred bases and it
slowed down big time.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
But he was on pace. But he was that okay
pace to do that. Mind you still on pace it
fifty home runs. Dela Cruz was not that.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I get that.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
The fifty to fifty I'm saying, I'm not pooh poohing it.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
He did it.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
He's the first player is gonna go into the record
books everybody's gonna remember that he was the first player
to ever do it. All that, But you can't look
at this honestly and not discount the stolen based part.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
If you have regular bases regularly.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
Okay, where is he with regular bases, then thirty some
odd you know what I mean, and still would be great.
I think it'd be higher than that just because of
his willingness to do it. A lot of players aren't
willing to do it like they used to. You mentioned
Ricky Henderson back in the you know, if you want
to go to the seventies, eighties guys or that was
a part of the game, right, try to get runs.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I create runs. Now.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
We talked about this. Everything is swinging its and it's okay.
I sit next to no mare Garcia par my guy,
Jay Harrison, Jerry Harrison Junior. I sit next to Dontrell Willis.
You sit all these guys and they just talk about
like they watched in amazement, like this didn't happen when
we were back in the day. You can be batting
one seventy and it's okay because all we're hoping is
(04:09):
that you get a home run. So my point is, uh,
this guy and you can do this with any any record.
We can go back and say, well, they didn't shoot
threes back like that back, or they didn't pass the ball.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
That it does stuff you don't think it does, it does.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
But my point is you still, and I think we
have learned enough that you still can appreciate and show
love for an Era, right.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I appreciate him as a player and what he's been
able to do by taking advantage of the circumstances. Baseball
two years ago decided that they wanted to get more
stolen bases because it had become a stationary sport a
strikeout or home run.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
So I understood what they were trying to do.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
All I'm saying when I'm starting to see these base
stealing numbers and guys are stealing at an incredible rate.
If this was a normal rate, Rob g of three
years ago, what what the stolen base rate was for
most players? Catchers have no shot at throwing out anybody
who has speed, because it's a disadvantage. Pitcher throws over twice,
(05:12):
you know he's not coming again. I'll take another step off,
and then I'm sliding into an extra large pepperoni pizza
with extra cheese.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
I'm not disagree with that, because you literally can't disagree
with the bases are as factual. They are bigger, look
got big. They are the only thing I will congreg
I guess where my mind is. Yes, the bases are
bigger factual. However, if you're still the only person doing something,
I gotta give you love. Y'all got the same opportunity.
It's still the same amount of bases as me. Right,
Obviously some guy has more. Guys have more, but you
(05:41):
also have the same at bets to get as many
home runs as me. You also get to show up
every night like he does. Like I just appreciate what
the guy is doing. And it's not the nineteen nineties
home run chase, but at least you got something to
watch baseball for, like, oh, keep an eye on a
tracker or a ticker. I do my news show here
in LA and this morning we got some augmented coolery.
I point to the numbers and it switches as he
(06:02):
hits a home run against a stolen base. So I'm saying,
I guess I'm in a more of a celebratory mode,
because let's call it what it is. If oftentimes baseball
isn't what I know. You feel differently. You're a massive,
massive baseball fan, grew up with it, you love it,
but you are.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
As until seventy million tickets. But it's not a conversation.
Don't disagree with the fact that hey want to go
to the ballgame. Sure, but it's not a hot button
conversation outside of a couple of places. New York, Okay,
I get it, with the Yankees, a couple other places,
people don't just casually talk about you live in LA.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
They casually talk about the Lakers. They talk about the
Dodgers here because but if you go to other cities,
that's not normal. What everybody just has a barbershop or
the casual conversation. You might have a conversation to your
friend who is a Dodger friend, but you don't just
do it at the elevator with a guy who's getting
in there. Point is, this was at least something cool
to at least spark and have another conversation in baseball.
(06:56):
I think it's a win win. He actually did it.
Folks were talking about it, and they went crazy in
here when he did it. Rob G and I are
out there talking about the show. Everybody goes crazy. I
thought it was another earthquake.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Is something? Well, this Dodger this is Dodger fan Central.
Are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Everybody in his place loves the Dodgers and I get it. Uh,
they're a story franchise and show. Hey, everybody knew when
he came to the Dodgers this was gonna be big
for the Dodgers, and.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Uh, these are that cool that he delivered? Yeah? No,
you know how that happens.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
Rob.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
I'm especially hundred million dollars, especially in baseball because guys,
as we talked about Wan Soto yesterday, you get Albert
Pool hosts and he comes to teams and he's good,
but he's not the Albert Pool host you thought you're
gonna get. You signed Wan Soo Padres Okay, eventually got
back to some pretty good form, but he wasn't what
you thought you're gonna get to me. It's also very
very cool that he lived up to the hype on
(07:46):
a big time team in a big city and he's
doing it in a major way, and every time he's
supposed to show up, he does, Oh, you're playing the
Angels first?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
That back home run? Oh? Is he gonna do it?
Speaker 4 (07:56):
On this big, you know, big National Game home run,
like he's so up every time he's supposed to World Series,
World Baseball Classic, Mike trouts up my teammate to brike
him out, like he shows up. So I'm listen to play.
I won't let you pull me down.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Rob Parker.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
I'm just telling you most people are gonna be with
me that it's fool gazy.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
That dude.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
You gotta look at it like like if I put
my hand on it, I probably have.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
To wash it.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
And if I was, if you were, if shoe Hey
was handing me a bill right from his wallet, it
would probably be a three dollar bill.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
It's just something that just doesn't feel right now. It's
a two dollar bill.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
It's rare, and it's kind of cool to see it,
ain't It ain't a hundred dollars bill where you say
who it's a two dollar bill. It's how this is
pretty cool, you know what. It's like a Susan b anthony.
When's the last time you got one of those?
Speaker 3 (08:45):
Right, b anthony? Quarter? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Like dollar the dollar. It's like, oh, that's pretty cool.
That's what it is. It's pretty cool. It's not the
greatest thing ever It isn't Barry Bonds twenty years ago,
and it isn't the home run race of the late nineties,
but it was pretty freaking cool.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Don't poo pull on his man's moment.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
Let's talk about the New Orleans Saints off to a
great start two and all. They went to Dallas and
kicked him body whatever you want to call it. I
mean they worked the Dallas Cowboys over like a burger
and fries.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I mean they were just like ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
When you look at what they've done over the first
two games, rob ninety one to twenty nine in favor
of them versus their two opponents ninety one at twenty nine.
So we've been talking about the offense being down and
has been for most of the league. For most of
the league, guys, you expect to put up crazy numbers.
Quarterbacks aren't doing it. I don't know if Derek Carr
(10:52):
is on a revenge tour. I don't know if he
thought he was Roy Jones Jr. Y'all must have forgot
or something. Derek Carr can play.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
He just that's what when they ran them out of
out of Vegas.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
That was awful. It really was because Derek Carr can play.
And we all know that. I'm not saying he's the
greatest quarterback to walk the earth, but he can play.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
And now he's in New Orleans and they're balling out.
They are.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
The Saints are averaging forty five and a half points
per game so far, the most points in the NFL
by more than ten point.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Yeah, it's close, Okay.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
New Orleans has posted ninety one points, tied for the
second most points in the first two games of the season.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
You're ready since the.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
NFL AFL merger in nineteen seventy that's according to the
NFL research.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
And here's another one.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Each of the prior to teams to score as many
points or more. The two thousand and nine Saints scored
ninety three points and the nineteen seventy one Dallas Cowboys
scored ninety one.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Points.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
And guess what those two teams both won. They didn't
go to the Super Bowl. They both won the Super Bowl.
So right here, you know, I've just told you that
show age Fugezy and I got some issues with the
mass and all that. But I'm gonna tell you this
when I ask about is this bologia for lat This
(12:16):
is flat.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
It is not bolony.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
This is is it beltair the restaurant? This is mastros,
This is uh wago, whatever the top, whatever you want.
That was spaghetti. Oh, that's rag ragu. And by the way,
nobody gets raggoo anymore. No, you gotta get to is it?
How do you pronounce it?
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Rob is rau? All right?
Speaker 4 (12:35):
What's the one? Everybody rowse stepped? So raghu is right?
Is that ragu? Boo boo? Okay, Oh, gotta get rows.
Now you're gonna look at pray good. It's gonna be
like three ninety.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
No, I can't pronounce rawls.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
You just said it. Look at you rows. Rows is
gonna be No, I'm not buying, but it's worth it.
I'm not twelve dollars for spaghetti sauce. It ain't just
spaghetti sauce. Bro This is really really is.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Twelve dollars Hostasista forgetting. And also you gotta step back
there like you broke. You got seventeen jobs.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Okay, you got to stop back and like you broke
right walking around here with a Jordan hoodie on with
with Fox Sports Radio, you can step your food game up.
I'm just twelve dollars for that might be my one mission.
I want to have an amazing tenure with you. I
want the show to go great. I want people to
love it. I want it to be the best that
it can be. But I also want to lead this
show making you a better person. Okay, Okay, that's a
(13:31):
tall order.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
It is.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Well call me, y'all, mean okay, because dang it, you're
about to start eating better. And they will work on
the worship Wednesday. We'll get there eventually. I'll get you
closer to the Lord. But I want to go back
to uh.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Where are you show?
Speaker 7 (13:46):
Right?
Speaker 4 (13:46):
I mean, I don't see anything that's I'm gonna tell
you why. It's also for a because you're getting you
know what it is. It's when you go to a
great restaurant and you can get it whatever you want,
however you want it. You want to run well, Alva
Kamara is averaging like one hundred and fifteen here, No,
absolutely almost six yards of carry's average. You want to pass, well,
you know what Derek Carr has been doing. You saw
what they did to Dallas's defense. They went straight six
(14:09):
straight drives. And it wasn't fluky drives. Say say dakos
on the road. Yeah, but it wasn't you know, like
say Dak fumbles on his own twenty and now I
was easy. They were going eighty eighty sixty nine, eighty
seventy eight. Like whatever you want, however you want it.
And so you gotta give some love to an offensive coordinator,
Gary Kubiak A Clint Kubiak, I should say, I'm sorry,
(14:32):
Clint Kubiak's coming in there on a mission. He's got
them playing Wales, got them. Whatever he did during the offseason,
other NFL teams didn't do. And I like what I'm
seeing from them again from the versatility. It's passing, it's running,
it's a balanced attack. It's not it's not one dimensional.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
And to go into Dallas, now, remember Dallas before that
playoff loss, that home playoff lost to Green Bay had
won sixteen sh straight games.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
So they got their butts kicked in that, so.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
They had reason at home, but they had reason to
want to play their first home game and rectify like
that that poor performance.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Right, yep. So they were playing for that as well.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Uh. I mean Michael Parsons, everybody's like, oh, he's the
next LT. We could stop that conversation for now, and
that defense.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
He's I want them on my team any day. But
he's not that guy. He's not TJ.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Watt.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
It don't matter who's blocking them, Hutchinson, don't matter who's
blocking them.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
You see what they do.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
And and I'm saying, uh, they had something to Dallas
defense to play for, right, because they got beat the
last time they were there and embarrassed at home and
the Saints came out and walked all over them.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
Was there was nothing that they could do. It was embarrassing.
And credit the Saints defense, right. I mean, they reminded
us that aside from Cede Lamb, a connection there between
Dak Prescott and Ceedee Lamb that that nice past, you know, and.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Even that was fluky because the two right there, they.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
They ran into each other and that opened up seed
to catch the ball, turn up feeling and go.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
You take that away, they might have been even more brutal,
and so you gotta credit the Saints defense as well. Listen, man,
the Saints they're marching in right now. They look like
a real quality team. They don't look fluky. This doesn't
look like an accident. It doesn't look like come you know.
Week eight, we're like, oh, they're teared. Now they're two
and six. Not saying they're going to win the super Bowl,
but that number you show was great. And also I'll
(16:30):
say this too, with the Dallas Cowboys rob twelve and
six last year, three of their six losses were blowouts.
So I don't know if it's just as a Dallas
say if they get hey, we're losing, we're just gonna
lose big. We don't care anymore. I don't know what
that is. But when they lose, they lose.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
No.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
I get that, and there are people saying that and
trying to use that as an excuse. But I'm just
what the Saints have been able to do. And here's
why you should feel good if you're a Saints fan,
because it's not just the offense where they're just you know,
blowing everybody out, but also the Saints defense is fourth
in scoring right and fourth in total and seventh in
(17:06):
total defense and second in takeaway So they're making things
happen defensively, and that's what you want to be able
to have. Is if you have a good defense and
then you're able to score points, you're gonna be in
a good position. And they're off to a great start too.
And zero and that win in Dallas. You know, I
remember picking that game and I thought that they would cover.
You know, it was like eight and a half or so.
(17:28):
It was a big spread. And for them to do
what they did, I'm impressed by where the Saints are.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
So go to the opposite for me though, with the Cowboys,
just a loss, gonna be all right throughout the season.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
No, the Cowboys got issues.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
They can't run the football Okay, well and that too,
and they can't right stop anybody, but they can't run
the football league. They got Ezekiel Elliott two years removes
who shouldn't be on the team that they paid in
food stamps. I mean, like none of it makes sense
that he he's back with the Cowboys.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
You know why, because he was cheap. He was cheap
and ridiculous. You mentioned about the food. He remember he
used to do is eating thing, the little eating celebrate.
He ain't eating no more. He is not eating fifty
six yards.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
He's leading.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
He's tied with the Leads for the leading rusher on
the team after two games. Fifty six yards. That is embarrassing.
And that's what happens when you go back and spend
the block. So all you fellas listening right now, you
left old girl, you moved on. Don't go spend the block.
It might not be as good as you thought it was. Well,
every now and again you might have to go spend
because sometimes dudes mess around and lost a good thing.
(18:34):
You ever spend the block, go back to an old
thing and try to get that old thing back on
no comment.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
No once or twice. I'm trying not to go backward
in life, I really do.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
But you gotta go back, Anya, you gotta go back
every now, get that old thing back. And the Dallas
tried it, and it's surely he's not worthing. But the
Saints some marching in.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
I don't I don't know how you can look at
the Saints and not feel good about the start.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Hey, where's the super Bowl this year? And the Super
Bowl in New Orleans.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
I'm just saying this, like Tampa Bay when they play,
you go the first team.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
To play in Uh. And then we had had a
boom a couple of times, and now it could be
the same maybe.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
And now it's just a trend. Let's head on down.
We're going to New Orleans, right if they We're going
to New Orleans, regardless of even if it's not the same,
We're going to New Orlean. All right, don't listen, don't
have me out on Bourbon Street acting the food.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Oh yeah, we're gonna have a good time, Rob g Right, Well, uh,
just make sure you keep tabs of Kelvin's expenses because
don't get crazy.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
You know what I mean by me, he means himself,
because we know about you, what we.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Know about you. I'm I'm by the book, you know,
like it ain't the good book. I never get called
into the HR. Everything's good, you know it ain't the
good book.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
That here we go?
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Are the Saints? Bolooney or for le at? What kind
of Bologneay do you do? You eat Bolooney of anybody else?
But I'm a grown man.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
I don't eat boloney, Rob, you eat Blogoney, don't you, Rob,
you have a daughter?
Speaker 3 (19:59):
He has a daughter. No, that's gotta be racist because
I'm Mexican. I gotta eating Bolooney. I got your back, Rob,
I know you don't even killing me. What Alex do
you eat? Bolooney? You you don't eat meat? You're funny

Speaker 3 (20:31):
We were talking about Eli Manning.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
So now I got arch man in Eli Manning, Peyton Manning,
Archie Manning, the grandfather of the patriarch.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
That's right, who was a quarterback for the.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
Quarterback for the same as for the back people used
to wear paper bags over their heads. So it got
me thinking, Rob, talking about that Manning family, Are they
the greatest family in sports history? I say no. Now
who I say is? Is it a sport? We don't
talk about as much. But what these two folks did
(21:02):
in the sport was utter dominance. So and so that
one is highly regarded as the greatest of all time.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
It is the Williams sister.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
For me, you have the greatest of all time in
Serena changed the game, made you watch tennis, women's centence
for two plus decades, has twenty three titles, a gang
of wins, seventy something meter win, major tournament wins as well,
and then you mentioned Venus by the way, who is
the second in this but she's arguably the second best
(21:32):
women's tennis player of the twenty first century. So the
Williams family, to me, the Williams sisters are the greatest
sports family, sports dynasty, if you will, in all of sports,
because of what they've done, the records they've said, the
cultural movement they created as well. That's who I have
as the best sports family. Now it's not a lot
of them, you know, other people's three, four or five people.
(21:53):
It's just two. But give me the Williams sisters best
sports family ever.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Well, it's hard to argue with their accomplishments, but because
it's outside of what we would consider the major sports.
And you know what I'm saying, in this country, football, baseball, basketball,
or hockey if you want to go there. Some people
might say that Griffis Ken, Griffy Senior had a story
career with the Cincinnati Reds. His son, obviously, Junior, one
(22:22):
of the all time great players, centerfielder, over six hundred
home runs.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
All that.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
That would be another family. But Manny, as far as quarterbacks,
I still think they're not there. But they have two Okay,
so their dad was a quarterback. Two brothers. One of
the other brothers I think the older brother didn't didn't
get a receiver. He had an injury.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
So but now if you have the grandson right who
is able to carve out his own niche because it
would take if they were able to do that, and
he wins a Super Bowl or two, you'd have to
start to think, Wow, that's a pretty impressive line.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
If he's able to father had it already, you might
be there. Agreed, she was good, He's just his teams
are bad.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Again, I'm saying, if Archie had won a Super Bowl
and then his two sons each one.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Two, they would be in there. I think.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
What does it for me is Peyton and Serena are
almost a washed if you will, like, I mean, Serena
is slightly above him, and that she's the greatest, where
he's one of the great quarterbacks, he's not there, he's
not the great, but he's up there.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
But that's what that's what gives the Williams sisters. I
think more.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Cashe venus right, she's above Eli, which I can't believe.
He's in the first ballace Hall of Famers. Stop, he's
gonna be in the Hall of fame. I don't know
what you don't understand, Gunna and should two different things.
We won't go backwards, yes, should be No, he deserves
to be in there. Let me give you why he's
(23:57):
going in there. Manning Brady. Those are the reason why
he's a Manning son and he beat Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
He's it ain't him, no.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Patriots, what are you talking about? He has two signature throws.
He won two MVPG. This man just told me he
has two signature throws. Now he got to go in
the Hall of fame. Why can't he go in the
hall of good? Why can't he go into the hall
of you?
Speaker 3 (24:19):
All right?
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Cause there is none? Can't he go into the hall
of boy? You showed up for two games? Can he
go into that hall of fame? I don't want to
go backwards with you. So that's what I have now. Now,
some other ones. I got one for you, mister Baseball.
Shout out to MLB bro. The Alamore family. A lot
of people put them up there. You had a bunch
of a whole bunch of sons and brothers who were
(24:42):
in there. The Matthews was another one that comes up. Yeah, Clay,
Bruce Matthews as well, and Clay.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
I just don't think they've done enough winning.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Like I agreed that love, you have to have the
winning of that magnitude that we talk about with the
Williams sisters or we're talking about man because I winning
super Bowls like they got four in their family.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Gonna be in the m v P, I mean in
the Hall of Fame, which whatever, but they will have now, right,
two of the two kids in the Hall of Fame?
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I mean, aren'tis not there?
Speaker 4 (25:12):
Are those the only two answers? That's the question.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
Is there anyone?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Again?
Speaker 4 (25:18):
Rob G, is there anyone else? You can even have
a considerate? Am I missing? Am remissing somebody? Another family?
Trying to think that? You would say, because there are
a bunch of families, we know that, but it's are
there other families on that list? I mean, I'm gonna
throw some more at you guys, you tell me you
can yodel.
Speaker 7 (25:37):
So here's one that you probably wouldn't even think of
me lebron and Brony.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Sorry, this is when you probably man played one game ahead,
is uh.
Speaker 7 (25:46):
The Jones family, Chandler Jones.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
That's great. That was that was on my list John Jones.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
I mean because UFC people really it's not out of side,
out of the mind trying to figure out because he's
been you know, popped for drug use and things like that.
But he is if you ask any and he's the
greatest UFC fighter of all time.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
He's god it.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
And his brother arguably a Hall of Famer Yep, Chandler Jones.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
But he's up and they got another brother too, and
they have another brother.
Speaker 7 (26:12):
And the thing about Challenger Jones, sister Missus Jones, stop it,
she's rob g keep going.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
And the Ryan.
Speaker 7 (26:19):
The thing about Chandler Jones is people only recently remember
that he was with the Raiders and he kind of
went off the deep end and then he had all
these fifty one to fifty calls. But when he's with
the Patriots, he was consistently in the all pro conversation
as far as pass rushers.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Yeah, he was on the list.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
I get all that, but don't you think winning at
the highest lest He had.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
A super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
He had a Super Bowl as well, and he was
on the All twenty Tens team as well, So he's
on that. They're on the list, not saying they're there.
Here's one the Barber family, Tiki and Rondey. You got
a championship super Bowl ring with Ronde. Tiki was a
great running back, eight time Pro Bowl between Giants, won
the Super Bowl the year after he returned.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
They did.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
I know he's still mad about it. He gotta act
like he not. I know he's mad about it.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
Boy.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
He wanted to go to NBC to do the Today's Show,
which I get, well, you know, a great job.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
He wish it was a Tomorrow show.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
He was supposed to He was supposed to be Strahan
before straight Remember here, who got that?
Speaker 4 (27:14):
He was supposed to do first listen, you know when
you got it, you got it.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
But I like that.
Speaker 4 (27:18):
That's a good list though, because Tiki and Ronde both
Pro bowlers. You got a super Bowl. They're both four
time All Pro between the two of them. That's another one. Uh,
this family has three It's cool that they got three
people in the pros, but only one was great. The
Barry family, Daddy was great. The sons are you know,
a solid NBA careers, but the daddy was great. The
(27:39):
Bonds family, Barry and Bobby. Bobby Bonds was a tremendous
player as well. That's what I'm not k Barry Bonds, Bonds.
You got to Demaggio. Now, I'm not going back to
grainy black and white. I'm just now you can have it.
I'm not going back that.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
What about the Sharp family.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
If Sterling could get they've gotten four more years.
Speaker 7 (28:02):
I mean, Shannon is the first ballot, but I don't
know if he's the first ballot. But he's one of
the greatest tight ends every and even he says, I'm
not even the best football player.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Was crazy Sterling Shark. We used to tear the lines up.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
I always remember that touchdown at the Silver Dome where
the lines are winn this game all the whole game,
and and Brett.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
Fad throws up a ball back in the zone of
the end zone and would bring it up.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Yes, because I covered that game. I was there.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
Yeah, that's you know what again, if Sterling Shark say,
gets five more years of the productivity in which he had,
he could they could have been in that list for sure.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
And then here's one more.
Speaker 7 (28:35):
And this one's a little tricky because individually, both of
these guys are most likely Hall of Famers and two
of the best to ever do it. The problem is,
I don't think either one of them is going to
get a Super Bowl. TJ and JJ Watt.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
They're on the they're on the list.
Speaker 7 (28:50):
And that's what's unfortunate for them is individually, you probably
put those two guys up against all of these other
players and athletes, but you got they don't have the
the the hardware being jip wise or title wise, whatever
it is to to put themselves on the.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
Green but talent strictly talent based, you ain't lying. They're
they're right there. I mean, JJ was best player defensively
maybe four or five years, and then TJ looks like
pretty much every year

Speaker 2 (00:22):
You're listening to the best of the Odd Couple with
Chris Bruson and Ron Harker.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
But let's get right to it, show hail Tony. He's
done it, and I'm gonna say, oh something, here we
is here, here, hold on, let me just are you
ready for this?
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Brace mine?
Speaker 4 (00:39):
So let me turn around look at you because it's
about to be blaspheming.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
I mean, he has the right. No one's ever done it.
He's just cemented that he's going to win the National
League MVP. It all counts. No one's saying that he
didn't do it. He's put in the work and this
is the situation that's in. But let's just call it
what it is. Okay, Shoe Hayes fifty to fifty and
now he's got fifty home on fifty one stolen bases.
(01:05):
Its fool, Gayzy Calvin. It's fool, Gayzy. It is not
real from this standpoint. The basers are too big. He's
sliding in the pizza boxes at second base. They're closer
at first, right, the bag is bigger and closer at second.
(01:25):
That's why no one's ever had fifty to fifty because
last year I said the same thing about Ronald Lacuna
Junior when we had seventy some odd stolen bases. Imagine
if Ricky Henderson and some of you are Lou Brock
and some of the great bat Ricky Henderson might have
had two hundred stolen bases, you can only throw over twice.
I mean, shoe a has a ninety two percent steel rate.
(01:49):
Two percent, that's ridiculous. So all I'm saying is he's
a great player. I'm not ordering the pooh pooh platter
as far as him and say and he's not great
because he's a great player. But this fifty to fifty
is tainted and for Gayzy, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
So first off, you're the first thing you said was
fifty to fifty, so you can't just leave out the
other portion of it, meaning, okay, he gets fifty one
stolen bases, but he only gets thirty two home runs
or or vice versa. The fact that he's able to
do both of these shows how ridiculous he is coming
off injury. And I know it's not injury necessarily that
it affects him with hitting and running, But he's coming
off injury, he's on a new team and he's doing
(02:32):
something no one else has ever done. You gotta give
the man credit for that. I will conceive the basis.
I mean, there's no way around that. The bases are
absolutely big.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Does to give him an advantage, Yeah, it's a disappints
the same other thousands of people in baseball and advantage
and he's the only one doing it. Yes, but other
guys we had earlier this year, Ellie de la Cruz
was on pace to steal one hundred bases and it
slowed down big time.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
But he was on pace. But he was that okay
pace to do that. Mind you still on pace it
fifty home runs. Dela Cruz was not that.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I get that.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
The fifty to fifty I'm saying, I'm not pooh poohing it.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
He did it.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
He's the first player is gonna go into the record
books everybody's gonna remember that he was the first player
to ever do it. All that, But you can't look
at this honestly and not discount the stolen based part.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
If you have regular bases regularly.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
Okay, where is he with regular bases, then thirty some
odd you know what I mean, and still would be great.
I think it'd be higher than that just because of
his willingness to do it. A lot of players aren't
willing to do it like they used to. You mentioned
Ricky Henderson back in the you know, if you want
to go to the seventies, eighties guys or that was
a part of the game, right, try to get runs.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I create runs. Now.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
We talked about this. Everything is swinging its and it's okay.
I sit next to no mare Garcia par my guy,
Jay Harrison, Jerry Harrison Junior. I sit next to Dontrell Willis.
You sit all these guys and they just talk about
like they watched in amazement, like this didn't happen when
we were back in the day. You can be batting
one seventy and it's okay because all we're hoping is
(04:09):
that you get a home run. So my point is, uh,
this guy and you can do this with any any record.
We can go back and say, well, they didn't shoot
threes back like that back, or they didn't pass the ball.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
That it does stuff you don't think it does, it does.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
But my point is you still, and I think we
have learned enough that you still can appreciate and show
love for an Era, right.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I appreciate him as a player and what he's been
able to do by taking advantage of the circumstances. Baseball
two years ago decided that they wanted to get more
stolen bases because it had become a stationary sport a
strikeout or home run.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
So I understood what they were trying to do.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
All I'm saying when I'm starting to see these base
stealing numbers and guys are stealing at an incredible rate.
If this was a normal rate, Rob g of three
years ago, what what the stolen base rate was for
most players? Catchers have no shot at throwing out anybody
who has speed, because it's a disadvantage. Pitcher throws over twice,
(05:12):
you know he's not coming again. I'll take another step off,
and then I'm sliding into an extra large pepperoni pizza
with extra cheese.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
I'm not disagree with that, because you literally can't disagree
with the bases are as factual. They are bigger, look
got big. They are the only thing I will congreg
I guess where my mind is. Yes, the bases are
bigger factual. However, if you're still the only person doing something,
I gotta give you love. Y'all got the same opportunity.
It's still the same amount of bases as me. Right,
Obviously some guy has more. Guys have more, but you
(05:41):
also have the same at bets to get as many
home runs as me. You also get to show up
every night like he does. Like I just appreciate what
the guy is doing. And it's not the nineteen nineties
home run chase, but at least you got something to
watch baseball for, like, oh, keep an eye on a
tracker or a ticker. I do my news show here
in LA and this morning we got some augmented coolery.
I point to the numbers and it switches as he
(06:02):
hits a home run against a stolen base. So I'm saying,
I guess I'm in a more of a celebratory mode,
because let's call it what it is. If oftentimes baseball
isn't what I know. You feel differently. You're a massive,
massive baseball fan, grew up with it, you love it,
but you are.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
As until seventy million tickets. But it's not a conversation.
Don't disagree with the fact that hey want to go
to the ballgame. Sure, but it's not a hot button
conversation outside of a couple of places. New York, Okay,
I get it, with the Yankees, a couple other places,
people don't just casually talk about you live in LA.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
They casually talk about the Lakers. They talk about the
Dodgers here because but if you go to other cities,
that's not normal. What everybody just has a barbershop or
the casual conversation. You might have a conversation to your
friend who is a Dodger friend, but you don't just
do it at the elevator with a guy who's getting
in there. Point is, this was at least something cool
to at least spark and have another conversation in baseball.
(06:56):
I think it's a win win. He actually did it.
Folks were talking about it, and they went crazy in
here when he did it. Rob G and I are
out there talking about the show. Everybody goes crazy. I
thought it was another earthquake.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Is something? Well, this Dodger this is Dodger fan Central.
Are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Everybody in his place loves the Dodgers and I get it. Uh,
they're a story franchise and show. Hey, everybody knew when
he came to the Dodgers this was gonna be big
for the Dodgers, and.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Uh, these are that cool that he delivered? Yeah? No,
you know how that happens.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
Rob.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
I'm especially hundred million dollars, especially in baseball because guys,
as we talked about Wan Soto yesterday, you get Albert
Pool hosts and he comes to teams and he's good,
but he's not the Albert Pool host you thought you're
gonna get. You signed Wan Soo Padres Okay, eventually got
back to some pretty good form, but he wasn't what
you thought you're gonna get to me. It's also very
very cool that he lived up to the hype on
(07:46):
a big time team in a big city and he's
doing it in a major way, and every time he's
supposed to show up, he does, Oh, you're playing the
Angels first?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
That back home run? Oh? Is he gonna do it?
Speaker 4 (07:56):
On this big, you know, big National Game home run,
like he's so up every time he's supposed to World Series,
World Baseball Classic, Mike trouts up my teammate to brike
him out, like he shows up. So I'm listen to play.
I won't let you pull me down.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Rob Parker.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
I'm just telling you most people are gonna be with
me that it's fool gazy.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
That dude.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
You gotta look at it like like if I put
my hand on it, I probably have.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
To wash it.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
And if I was, if you were, if shoe Hey
was handing me a bill right from his wallet, it
would probably be a three dollar bill.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
It's just something that just doesn't feel right now. It's
a two dollar bill.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
It's rare, and it's kind of cool to see it,
ain't It ain't a hundred dollars bill where you say
who it's a two dollar bill. It's how this is
pretty cool, you know what. It's like a Susan b anthony.
When's the last time you got one of those?
Speaker 3 (08:45):
Right, b anthony? Quarter? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Like dollar the dollar. It's like, oh, that's pretty cool.
That's what it is. It's pretty cool. It's not the
greatest thing ever It isn't Barry Bonds twenty years ago,
and it isn't the home run race of the late nineties,
but it was pretty freaking cool.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Don't poo pull on his man's moment.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
Let's talk about the New Orleans Saints off to a
great start two and all. They went to Dallas and
kicked him body whatever you want to call it. I
mean they worked the Dallas Cowboys over like a burger
and fries.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I mean they were just like ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
When you look at what they've done over the first
two games, rob ninety one to twenty nine in favor
of them versus their two opponents ninety one at twenty nine.
So we've been talking about the offense being down and
has been for most of the league. For most of
the league, guys, you expect to put up crazy numbers.
Quarterbacks aren't doing it. I don't know if Derek Carr
(10:52):
is on a revenge tour. I don't know if he
thought he was Roy Jones Jr. Y'all must have forgot
or something. Derek Carr can play.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
He just that's what when they ran them out of
out of Vegas.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
That was awful. It really was because Derek Carr can play.
And we all know that. I'm not saying he's the
greatest quarterback to walk the earth, but he can play.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
And now he's in New Orleans and they're balling out.
They are.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
The Saints are averaging forty five and a half points
per game so far, the most points in the NFL
by more than ten point.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Yeah, it's close, Okay.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
New Orleans has posted ninety one points, tied for the
second most points in the first two games of the season.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
You're ready since the.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
NFL AFL merger in nineteen seventy that's according to the
NFL research.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
And here's another one.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Each of the prior to teams to score as many
points or more. The two thousand and nine Saints scored
ninety three points and the nineteen seventy one Dallas Cowboys
scored ninety one.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Points.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
And guess what those two teams both won. They didn't
go to the Super Bowl. They both won the Super Bowl.
So right here, you know, I've just told you that
show age Fugezy and I got some issues with the
mass and all that. But I'm gonna tell you this
when I ask about is this bologia for lat This
(12:16):
is flat.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
It is not bolony.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
This is is it beltair the restaurant? This is mastros,
This is uh wago, whatever the top, whatever you want.
That was spaghetti. Oh, that's rag ragu. And by the way,
nobody gets raggoo anymore. No, you gotta get to is it?
How do you pronounce it?
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Rob is rau? All right?
Speaker 4 (12:35):
What's the one? Everybody rowse stepped? So raghu is right?
Is that ragu? Boo boo? Okay, Oh, gotta get rows.
Now you're gonna look at pray good. It's gonna be
like three ninety.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
No, I can't pronounce rawls.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
You just said it. Look at you rows. Rows is
gonna be No, I'm not buying, but it's worth it.
I'm not twelve dollars for spaghetti sauce. It ain't just
spaghetti sauce. Bro This is really really is.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Twelve dollars Hostasista forgetting. And also you gotta step back
there like you broke. You got seventeen jobs.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Okay, you got to stop back and like you broke
right walking around here with a Jordan hoodie on with
with Fox Sports Radio, you can step your food game up.
I'm just twelve dollars for that might be my one mission.
I want to have an amazing tenure with you. I
want the show to go great. I want people to
love it. I want it to be the best that
it can be. But I also want to lead this
show making you a better person. Okay, Okay, that's a
(13:31):
tall order.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
It is.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Well call me, y'all, mean okay, because dang it, you're
about to start eating better. And they will work on
the worship Wednesday. We'll get there eventually. I'll get you
closer to the Lord. But I want to go back
to uh.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Where are you show?
Speaker 7 (13:46):
Right?
Speaker 4 (13:46):
I mean, I don't see anything that's I'm gonna tell
you why. It's also for a because you're getting you
know what it is. It's when you go to a
great restaurant and you can get it whatever you want,
however you want it. You want to run well, Alva
Kamara is averaging like one hundred and fifteen here, No,
absolutely almost six yards of carry's average. You want to pass, well,
you know what Derek Carr has been doing. You saw
what they did to Dallas's defense. They went straight six
(14:09):
straight drives. And it wasn't fluky drives. Say say dakos
on the road. Yeah, but it wasn't you know, like
say Dak fumbles on his own twenty and now I
was easy. They were going eighty eighty sixty nine, eighty
seventy eight. Like whatever you want, however you want it.
And so you gotta give some love to an offensive coordinator,
Gary Kubiak A Clint Kubiak, I should say, I'm sorry,
(14:32):
Clint Kubiak's coming in there on a mission. He's got
them playing Wales, got them. Whatever he did during the offseason,
other NFL teams didn't do. And I like what I'm
seeing from them again from the versatility. It's passing, it's running,
it's a balanced attack. It's not it's not one dimensional.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
And to go into Dallas, now, remember Dallas before that
playoff loss, that home playoff lost to Green Bay had
won sixteen sh straight games.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
So they got their butts kicked in that, so.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
They had reason at home, but they had reason to
want to play their first home game and rectify like
that that poor performance.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Right, yep. So they were playing for that as well.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Uh. I mean Michael Parsons, everybody's like, oh, he's the
next LT. We could stop that conversation for now, and
that defense.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
He's I want them on my team any day. But
he's not that guy. He's not TJ.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Watt.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
It don't matter who's blocking them, Hutchinson, don't matter who's
blocking them.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
You see what they do.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
And and I'm saying, uh, they had something to Dallas
defense to play for, right, because they got beat the
last time they were there and embarrassed at home and
the Saints came out and walked all over them.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
Was there was nothing that they could do. It was embarrassing.
And credit the Saints defense, right. I mean, they reminded
us that aside from Cede Lamb, a connection there between
Dak Prescott and Ceedee Lamb that that nice past, you know, and.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Even that was fluky because the two right there, they.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
They ran into each other and that opened up seed
to catch the ball, turn up feeling and go.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
You take that away, they might have been even more brutal,
and so you gotta credit the Saints defense as well. Listen, man,
the Saints they're marching in right now. They look like
a real quality team. They don't look fluky. This doesn't
look like an accident. It doesn't look like come you know.
Week eight, we're like, oh, they're teared. Now they're two
and six. Not saying they're going to win the super Bowl,
but that number you show was great. And also I'll
(16:30):
say this too, with the Dallas Cowboys rob twelve and
six last year, three of their six losses were blowouts.
So I don't know if it's just as a Dallas
say if they get hey, we're losing, we're just gonna
lose big. We don't care anymore. I don't know what
that is. But when they lose, they lose.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
No.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
I get that, and there are people saying that and
trying to use that as an excuse. But I'm just
what the Saints have been able to do. And here's
why you should feel good if you're a Saints fan,
because it's not just the offense where they're just you know,
blowing everybody out, but also the Saints defense is fourth
in scoring right and fourth in total and seventh in
(17:06):
total defense and second in takeaway So they're making things
happen defensively, and that's what you want to be able
to have. Is if you have a good defense and
then you're able to score points, you're gonna be in
a good position. And they're off to a great start too.
And zero and that win in Dallas. You know, I
remember picking that game and I thought that they would cover.
You know, it was like eight and a half or so.
(17:28):
It was a big spread. And for them to do
what they did, I'm impressed by where the Saints are.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
So go to the opposite for me though, with the Cowboys,
just a loss, gonna be all right throughout the season.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
No, the Cowboys got issues.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
They can't run the football Okay, well and that too,
and they can't right stop anybody, but they can't run
the football league. They got Ezekiel Elliott two years removes
who shouldn't be on the team that they paid in
food stamps. I mean, like none of it makes sense
that he he's back with the Cowboys.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
You know why, because he was cheap. He was cheap
and ridiculous. You mentioned about the food. He remember he
used to do is eating thing, the little eating celebrate.
He ain't eating no more. He is not eating fifty
six yards.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
He's leading.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
He's tied with the Leads for the leading rusher on
the team after two games. Fifty six yards. That is embarrassing.
And that's what happens when you go back and spend
the block. So all you fellas listening right now, you
left old girl, you moved on. Don't go spend the block.
It might not be as good as you thought it was. Well,
every now and again you might have to go spend
because sometimes dudes mess around and lost a good thing.
(18:34):
You ever spend the block, go back to an old
thing and try to get that old thing back on
no comment.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
No once or twice. I'm trying not to go backward
in life, I really do.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
But you gotta go back, Anya, you gotta go back
every now, get that old thing back. And the Dallas
tried it, and it's surely he's not worthing. But the
Saints some marching in.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
I don't I don't know how you can look at
the Saints and not feel good about the start.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Hey, where's the super Bowl this year? And the Super
Bowl in New Orleans.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
I'm just saying this, like Tampa Bay when they play,
you go the first team.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
To play in Uh. And then we had had a
boom a couple of times, and now it could be
the same maybe.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
And now it's just a trend. Let's head on down.
We're going to New Orleans, right if they We're going
to New Orleans, regardless of even if it's not the same,
We're going to New Orlean. All right, don't listen, don't
have me out on Bourbon Street acting the food.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Oh yeah, we're gonna have a good time, Rob g Right, Well, uh,
just make sure you keep tabs of Kelvin's expenses because
don't get crazy.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
You know what I mean by me, he means himself,
because we know about you, what we.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Know about you. I'm I'm by the book, you know,
like it ain't the good book. I never get called
into the HR. Everything's good, you know it ain't the
good book.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
That here we go?
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Are the Saints? Bolooney or for le at? What kind
of Bologneay do you do? You eat Bolooney of anybody else?
But I'm a grown man.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
I don't eat boloney, Rob, you eat Blogoney, don't you, Rob,
you have a daughter?
Speaker 3 (19:59):
He has a daughter. No, that's gotta be racist because
I'm Mexican. I gotta eating Bolooney. I got your back, Rob,
I know you don't even killing me. What Alex do
you eat? Bolooney? You you don't eat meat? You're funny
for that, Rob, Rob, you go to church on Sunday too, Right.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
the nation. Catch all of our shows at foxsports Radio
dot com and within the iHeartRadio app search FSR to

Speaker 3 (20:31):
We were talking about Eli Manning.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
So now I got arch man in Eli Manning, Peyton Manning,
Archie Manning, the grandfather of the patriarch.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
That's right, who was a quarterback for the.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
Quarterback for the same as for the back people used
to wear paper bags over their heads. So it got
me thinking, Rob, talking about that Manning family, Are they
the greatest family in sports history? I say no. Now
who I say is? Is it a sport? We don't
talk about as much. But what these two folks did
(21:02):
in the sport was utter dominance. So and so that
one is highly regarded as the greatest of all time.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
It is the Williams sister.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
For me, you have the greatest of all time in
Serena changed the game, made you watch tennis, women's centence
for two plus decades, has twenty three titles, a gang
of wins, seventy something meter win, major tournament wins as well,
and then you mentioned Venus by the way, who is
the second in this but she's arguably the second best
(21:32):
women's tennis player of the twenty first century. So the
Williams family, to me, the Williams sisters are the greatest
sports family, sports dynasty, if you will, in all of sports,
because of what they've done, the records they've said, the
cultural movement they created as well. That's who I have
as the best sports family. Now it's not a lot
of them, you know, other people's three, four or five people.
(21:53):
It's just two. But give me the Williams sisters best
sports family ever.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Well, it's hard to argue with their accomplishments, but because
it's outside of what we would consider the major sports.
And you know what I'm saying, in this country, football, baseball, basketball,
or hockey if you want to go there. Some people
might say that Griffis Ken, Griffy Senior had a story
career with the Cincinnati Reds. His son, obviously, Junior, one
(22:22):
of the all time great players, centerfielder, over six hundred
home runs.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
All that.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
That would be another family. But Manny, as far as quarterbacks,
I still think they're not there. But they have two Okay,
so their dad was a quarterback. Two brothers. One of
the other brothers I think the older brother didn't didn't
get a receiver. He had an injury.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
So but now if you have the grandson right who
is able to carve out his own niche because it
would take if they were able to do that, and
he wins a Super Bowl or two, you'd have to
start to think, Wow, that's a pretty impressive line.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
If he's able to father had it already, you might
be there. Agreed, she was good, He's just his teams
are bad.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Again, I'm saying, if Archie had won a Super Bowl
and then his two sons each one.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Two, they would be in there. I think.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
What does it for me is Peyton and Serena are
almost a washed if you will, like, I mean, Serena
is slightly above him, and that she's the greatest, where
he's one of the great quarterbacks, he's not there, he's
not the great, but he's up there.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
But that's what that's what gives the Williams sisters. I
think more.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Cashe venus right, she's above Eli, which I can't believe.
He's in the first ballace Hall of Famers. Stop, he's
gonna be in the Hall of fame. I don't know
what you don't understand, Gunna and should two different things.
We won't go backwards, yes, should be No, he deserves
to be in there. Let me give you why he's
(23:57):
going in there. Manning Brady. Those are the reason why
he's a Manning son and he beat Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
He's it ain't him, no.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Patriots, what are you talking about? He has two signature throws.
He won two MVPG. This man just told me he
has two signature throws. Now he got to go in
the Hall of fame. Why can't he go in the
hall of good? Why can't he go into the hall
of you?
Speaker 3 (24:19):
All right?
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Cause there is none? Can't he go into the hall
of boy? You showed up for two games? Can he
go into that hall of fame? I don't want to
go backwards with you. So that's what I have now. Now,
some other ones. I got one for you, mister Baseball.
Shout out to MLB bro. The Alamore family. A lot
of people put them up there. You had a bunch
of a whole bunch of sons and brothers who were
(24:42):
in there. The Matthews was another one that comes up. Yeah, Clay,
Bruce Matthews as well, and Clay.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
I just don't think they've done enough winning.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Like I agreed that love, you have to have the
winning of that magnitude that we talk about with the
Williams sisters or we're talking about man because I winning
super Bowls like they got four in their family.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Gonna be in the m v P, I mean in
the Hall of Fame, which whatever, but they will have now, right,
two of the two kids in the Hall of Fame?
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I mean, aren'tis not there?
Speaker 4 (25:12):
Are those the only two answers? That's the question.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
Is there anyone?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Again?
Speaker 4 (25:18):
Rob G, is there anyone else? You can even have
a considerate? Am I missing? Am remissing somebody? Another family?
Trying to think that? You would say, because there are
a bunch of families, we know that, but it's are
there other families on that list? I mean, I'm gonna
throw some more at you guys, you tell me you
can yodel.
Speaker 7 (25:37):
So here's one that you probably wouldn't even think of
me lebron and Brony.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Sorry, this is when you probably man played one game ahead,
is uh.
Speaker 7 (25:46):
The Jones family, Chandler Jones.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
That's great. That was that was on my list John Jones.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
I mean because UFC people really it's not out of side,
out of the mind trying to figure out because he's
been you know, popped for drug use and things like that.
But he is if you ask any and he's the
greatest UFC fighter of all time.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
He's god it.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
And his brother arguably a Hall of Famer Yep, Chandler Jones.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
But he's up and they got another brother too, and
they have another brother.
Speaker 7 (26:12):
And the thing about Challenger Jones, sister Missus Jones, stop it,
she's rob g keep going.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
And the Ryan.
Speaker 7 (26:19):
The thing about Chandler Jones is people only recently remember
that he was with the Raiders and he kind of
went off the deep end and then he had all
these fifty one to fifty calls. But when he's with
the Patriots, he was consistently in the all pro conversation
as far as pass rushers.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Yeah, he was on the list.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
I get all that, but don't you think winning at
the highest lest He had.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
A super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
He had a Super Bowl as well, and he was
on the All twenty Tens team as well, So he's
on that. They're on the list, not saying they're there.
Here's one the Barber family, Tiki and Rondey. You got
a championship super Bowl ring with Ronde. Tiki was a
great running back, eight time Pro Bowl between Giants, won
the Super Bowl the year after he returned.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
They did.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
I know he's still mad about it. He gotta act
like he not. I know he's mad about it.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
Boy.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
He wanted to go to NBC to do the Today's Show,
which I get, well, you know, a great job.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
He wish it was a Tomorrow show.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
He was supposed to He was supposed to be Strahan
before straight Remember here, who got that?
Speaker 4 (27:14):
He was supposed to do first listen, you know when
you got it, you got it.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
But I like that.
Speaker 4 (27:18):
That's a good list though, because Tiki and Ronde both
Pro bowlers. You got a super Bowl. They're both four
time All Pro between the two of them. That's another one. Uh,
this family has three It's cool that they got three
people in the pros, but only one was great. The
Barry family, Daddy was great. The sons are you know,
a solid NBA careers, but the daddy was great. The
(27:39):
Bonds family, Barry and Bobby. Bobby Bonds was a tremendous
player as well. That's what I'm not k Barry Bonds, Bonds.
You got to Demaggio. Now, I'm not going back to
grainy black and white. I'm just now you can have it.
I'm not going back that.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
What about the Sharp family.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
If Sterling could get they've gotten four more years.
Speaker 7 (28:02):
I mean, Shannon is the first ballot, but I don't
know if he's the first ballot. But he's one of
the greatest tight ends every and even he says, I'm
not even the best football player.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Was crazy Sterling Shark. We used to tear the lines up.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
I always remember that touchdown at the Silver Dome where
the lines are winn this game all the whole game,
and and Brett.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
Fad throws up a ball back in the zone of
the end zone and would bring it up.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Yes, because I covered that game. I was there.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
Yeah, that's you know what again, if Sterling Shark say,
gets five more years of the productivity in which he had,
he could they could have been in that list for sure.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
And then here's one more.
Speaker 7 (28:35):
And this one's a little tricky because individually, both of
these guys are most likely Hall of Famers and two
of the best to ever do it. The problem is,
I don't think either one of them is going to
get a Super Bowl. TJ and JJ Watt.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
They're on the they're on the list.
Speaker 7 (28:50):
And that's what's unfortunate for them is individually, you probably
put those two guys up against all of these other
players and athletes, but you got they don't have the
the the hardware being jip wise or title wise, whatever
it is to to put themselves on the.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
Green but talent strictly talent based, you ain't lying. They're
they're right there. I mean, JJ was best player defensively
maybe four or five years, and then TJ looks like
pretty much every year
