you know, you gotta keep it going, you know what
I mean?

All Right?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
You know what I did look for a very significant
gift today, Like I know exactly what it is. Click
on it, It'll be here in one of two days.
I was.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
I'm ridiculous when it comes to Christmas shore day, Yeah,
because I buy everything throughout the year. When I travel
a lot, I find stuff in store pants, pants, get all.
Speaker 1 (03:28):

What a nice gift does it? You don't know what
if I bought it, I don't come about all right.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
I'm just saying most people don't know if you bought
it Christmas Eve or two days before Christmas or a
year ago.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
A nice present is a nice present. Don't disagree. And
my other part.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Of always wanting to do it like that is I
don't have Christmas bills in January because I, you know,
ran up the credit cards buying stuff, because I've paid
for it throughout the year, so there's no bills. Everything's
been shipped to everybody like I'm just living free and
rolling around in it.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
That's what happens.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
He look and then maybe outside of the car, downside behind,
look at it.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
All right, you got it all figured out. If I
could get a haircut and a date, I would be
great and life would be good.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
And I'm gonna have to say I had a glisy
in my mouth to YouTube be and say.
Speaker 1 (04:41):

the time. Yes, I own a barbershop in Detroit. What
do you want me to do? Open? I'll go half.

second grade that nobody knows about.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
The year off. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Steve Hartman might

knows exactly where to see you. I wear black shirts
on Friday and on Saturday.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
Is that Steve Harmon doesn't have to, you know, figure
out what he's gonna weary. He's like almost like a
cartoon character, Fred flints the water save Outfred every day.

Everyone's talking about one particular player these days, Alex.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
You know who that is, and that everyone knows. Everyone
knows who we're talking about.
Speaker 9 (07:40):
We're not playing the sound to that. We would not
be doing.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
You know what if that sound doesn't play, We're getting
a new producer.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
That's fine, all right, John, No, that's the that's the
wrong one. That's not it. That's not it.

Okay, he was.
Speaker 9 (08:42):
He's always caving Fox Sports Radio fluffer over here? Anyways,
did you say fluff?
Speaker 10 (08:48):
We are about ninety minutes away from the tip off
of the championship of the NBA Cup.
Speaker 9 (08:55):
I know Rob Parker has been locked in at this
tournament all season.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
When does the start up?
Speaker 10 (09:01):
The New York Knickerbockers taking on the San Antonio Spurs.
But the game itself is secondary because all eyes.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
I will say this, the best taker heard out of
New York was one of the hosts saying that they
hope the Knicks lose so that they don't put up
that ridiculous batner at Madison squeid.
Speaker 7 (09:19):
Am.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
I right, maybe the only they hadn't forty years though
they still don't want it. You better go get that banner.
Speaker 10 (09:25):
Well, if that banner's gonna stay down, it's gonna because
Victor Wembanyama will have led his team to a victory,
and the buzz for Wemby's been big all season coming
into the season. Started of the season, he got hurt
a little bit there, but then he came back with
the vengeance over the weekend, took down the Oklahoma City
Thunder in a game to get that the Spurs won
by two points. When be came off the bench again
(09:47):
because he was coming off injury, only played twenty one
minutes and was a plus twenty one during that span,
which is lady. A lot of people to suggest that
if and when they win this game tonight, they win
the it's gonna springboard them the rest of the way,
maybe even into NBA Championship. Contention, guys, number one, is
(10:11):
that true?
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Number two?
Speaker 10 (10:13):
No, if it is true, what's to stop the San
Antonio Spurs from pushing all their chips in the middle
of the table and going all in with Wimby right now?
Speaker 1 (10:24):
I want more time. I'm not doing that.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
We just saw and I'm not saying that we just
saw of Colts do the same exact thing that they
They pushed all the chips in the middle because they
thought they had something with Daniel Jones. They gave up
the two first Rock pigs for sauce Gardener, who's turned
into Apple sauce Gardner.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Uh, and now they're losing and they might not even
make the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
Like that's don't disrespect old man rivers. I'm just saying
that's how bad it is. And I'm just saying on
the Winby case. I once want to see I want
to see this team together a little bit more. I
wanted to jail. I don't want you to go out
and run and go like, oh yeah, uh, let's go
get Yannas and we're gonna win the title and this
and that.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
I don't think we're there yet enough to throw all
the chips in the middle of the table.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
You got a great starting piece, right, a great piece,
and you got these other young players around them.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
They're playing well and you know, things to look forward to.
But I'm not there. I just wouldn't do it. Not
to soon. I'm all in. I'm all in, and I'll
give you a couple of reason why. If Winby is
the generational talent, I believe him to be, and obviously
others do as well. Rob You look at history and
there are examples, there are north stars of what happens
(11:35):
when you get a generational talent. And not every time,
but often it can happen. So you look at some
other great guys like Kareem Abdul Jabbar. He won in
his second year in the league. Tim Duncan won in
his second year. You had Magic win his first year,
Bird won in his second or third. But you're leaving
out some pieces, so hear me out, hold on, and
(11:55):
then you can even go. You can even go right,
you can go Shack win in his second or third year.
Lebron went his fourth year. Other guys go early, shock,
second or third. Do you know I was ninety he
went in ninety five. He was seventy two night till
third win in his third year. And my point is
when you're in a good situation like he is in
(12:16):
the Spurs, very well run drafts, well organized, they developed well.
You got freaking Castle is amazing and he's only twenty.
He's twenty years old. They've got Harper junior, They've got
a good veteran and d Aaron Fox. They got some
other ancillary pieces as well and Rob This season aside
from the thunder, which I believe are gonna win with
(12:37):
standing in massive injury. They like SGA late in the season,
they should win. But that's the really only shoeing. We
kind of look at it and go that is the
you know, the team that should do it. So if
you're the Spurs, who can compete? Who went bes a
game changer? Who win? Bes affects things on both ends
of the court. I'm not saying you're absolutely gonna win it.
What I'm saying is you go for it. And here's
(12:58):
another part, and you've said this too with Wemby, his
real op as the kids say, his real potential rival.
Obviously I would love for to be the thunder Thunder
we have that for five, seven, eight years, but really
his father time and or injuries, meaning how long will
he be able to play? Is he gonna break the
curse of big ginormous men or is he gonna fall
in line like them and be good but often injured
(13:19):
to bonus y'aoming and some other guys who have had
bad feet and bad knees by being big. So you
are playing against that. And he's already had blood clots
and he's already been injured. So I might not get
a fifteen twenty year run. He might not give me
a Chris paul A lebron a KD. I might only
get twelve like a magic or a bird.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
I did say way five years to make a move,
but I need to see more of this with what
they have before I'm giving up for yannas or giving
up players, you know, for a guy who might disrupt
what you have going on. And that might be because
Giannis is going to get a certain degree of attention
right that he should get because of his history and
(14:01):
his accolades and the stuff that he's won. So I
don't know if I really want to disrupt that with
a guy like Wemby, don't.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I don't. I don't know that. Let me rephrase. When
I say all in, I'm saying I'm all in for
this season. Not necessarily I'm all in for Giannis. I'm saying,
I'm just what we're really talking about. I know who
else would you be all in? I'm saying, I don't
know that they necessarily need No.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
We're talking about the whole premise was about going to
add and getting somebody to I don't be said to
say what I don't understand to say, you're all in.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Obviously you're trying to win. I'm saying, does that mean
I'll tell you what I mean? What I mean is
I'm looking at him, and I'm not saying we're going
to slow roll this thing. We'll play him here and
the next season. I'm saying, if Winby is good to go,
you go, because this season could be potential coping.
Speaker 7 (14:46):
I'm not.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I don't if you have a whole.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
This was about adding saying you're all in the way.
The way that the coach went out, That's why I
brought that up. The way that they went out and
gave up two first round picks because they looked at
the AFC and thre but it was open and that
they had a chance, so they went in.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
That's what cashing in is.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
That would be like them going to Milwaukee giving up
some of the young pieces. I'm saying, I got Wemby
and Jannis, and that's what we're gonna win the championship.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
The core of the guys, the castle. Obviously you got
Harper Junior. You obviously got Wemby. Clearly I'm not giving
up that core because the core is locked in for years.
But what I'm saying is if there's a if there's
a nice veteran type piece on us that you feel
that this is it, then you go for Because to me,
I look at as this you gotta give to gain right,
(15:33):
And I got some pieces. I got some picks, but
this season is open. Aside from the Thunder, there are
good teams. They'll get to it. The Rockets are good,
and the Nuggets are good, and the Knicks in the pistons.
But I mean there's no there's no walking Kdi with
Steph going on. There's no you know, eight Celtics or
shaking Kobe Lakers. So to me, with the way Winby competes,
with the way he wants to play, with the way
(15:55):
that even in his fourth his playing in fourth quarter
in fifteen and only X amount of men. And I'm
looking at this season as we can strike, even though
we're very young. We can't strike this season all right?
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Eight seven seven nine on Fox eight seven seven nine
nine six sixty three sixty nine. Are the Spurs legitimate
title contenders? And if so, should they push all in
around Wenby? Right now, that's the conversation. That's what we
want to hear from you. We'll continue this conversation right
here on The Odd Couple.

odd couple of Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Josh?
Speaker 8 (19:32):
Hey, what's up?
Speaker 10 (19:34):
Guys?
Speaker 7 (19:34):
Yo yo, yo, yo yo.
Speaker 8 (19:36):
This is my I think fourth time calling in, so
thank you very much taking my call.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Appreciate you, Yes, thank you. Josh.
Speaker 8 (19:44):
All right, that's what I have.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I do have one question real quick. And I know
this sounds stupid.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
It is about to be stupid. It is better not
involve a vegetable that yes, our French fries or potatoes
cheaper there or not.
Speaker 8 (19:57):
I'm just asking no, actually, yeah, you can get him
for pretty cheap. And they're grown right here.
Speaker 4 (20:04):
That's what I'm saying. There's no transportation, you know what
I mean. That's why I'm asking, so see how much
potato gate.
Speaker 8 (20:11):
But I'm asking, so, so what we have is fry sauce.
The people back Heath, they don't. They never heard of
fry sauce. That's that's the that's the condiment of should
be the condiment of the nation going on.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Sauce.
Speaker 8 (20:27):
Yeah, yeah, you know what, it's not all that magical together.
You put mayo, you put some ketchup, and there might
be some other ingredients. But us people out here in
the West go crazy for it. So you need to
come out here, has some fries, has some fry sauce.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Okay, all right, I never heard of it. Go ahead,
make your point, please, thank you, Josh.
Speaker 8 (20:49):
Yeah, all right, this is what I say. So we
finally got Deer and Fox healthy. He's back in the mix,
Wemby's finally getting back. They actually have some really really
good young talent. I say, you roll with the crew.
You have now get some cohesionness and then maybe this
next year, depending on how far they go, you go
(21:09):
out and get somebody like Denver did when they went
out and got Aaron Gordon. That was kind of their
missing piece to go win the championship. So I'd say
let them play it out this year, but then maybe
go out and get some a key person to help
fit in their mix and the culture they have going
there for this upcoming year. And I think they have
a great chance in the next year. That's what I'm
(21:30):
gonna say.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
And that's where I'm at. I'm right there with you, Josh.
Thank you appreciating Josh, thank you for the call. Brother,
And now we know about fryesauce. Theyn't even know about
that fry sauce. Yeah, Ef Solamo. The way right now

line in Fox Sports Radio weekends E for Salam. You
can find him there. Yeah, him and Robb g I
can let they don't talk every week. Yeah, you know,
it's crazy. How your kids doing?
Speaker 5 (22:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
What you want to do? Hey, what's the new movie
you're working on? Ephraim from get on the phone with us,
not Rob G what's up, man? What's up? Happy holidays
you too, man?
Speaker 7 (22:24):
Happy holidays? See you guys.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Man.
Speaker 7 (22:26):
I hope you get all you wish for.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Yeah, I appreciate that. Where you want to start, Rob,
I do want to get I don't know if if
it starts with a K and the next to whatever. See,
I'm jumping over this table. What were you talking about
the Kansas City Chiefs. That's why we started.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
That's where we're starting with the Ebrah Marble jumped over
the table and he knowing was that from you know,
he won't leave it alone?
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Not miscredit.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
He got it right, he from I said before the
season started they wouldn't make the playoff.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Anybody react after? Go ahead?
Speaker 8 (22:54):
Rob?
Speaker 7 (22:54):
You know what I on my show that I do
on Sundays from eight pm excuse me, five to eight
pm Pacific, I said the same thing before the season.
I said, I don't believe the Kansas City Chiefs will
make the playoffs this year.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
We are few and far between. Because even as early
as I which I put on that Parker pushback, there
were people on TV Sunday morning talking about they were
going to run the table. You know what I mean,
I'm like, what games are you watching? Like seriously to
think that they were going to run the table? Uh?
Just so you you also saw what I saw, and
(23:32):
you're not surprised. I guess the future is now, you know,
how do they regroup?
Speaker 1 (23:38):
I guess is what we could ask.
Speaker 7 (23:40):
You know, it's extremely hard to go to the super Bowl,
whether you win or lose it over and over and
over again, it just wears on you. The team gets older,
you lose pieces. Super Bowl teams historically get posted by
other teams trying to get someone that capture some of
that magic. And the fact that they were winning so
(24:02):
many one score games last year, I knew that wasn't
sustainable for this year. And we've seen that in one
score games. I believe they're like eight and one or
one in eight or something. It's impossible to duplicate that.
It just it's so hard to do and it takes
so much out of your team that I presumed that
(24:24):
they would have, uh, you know, a falling off, which happened,
So now I believe it's not a retool. I believe
you've got to rebuild this team. The one thing that
concerns me about the Kansas City Chiefs is they've skirted
the fact that eventually they're going to need a running game.
They've been ultra successful without a running game. But in
(24:46):
order to take the pressure off Patrick Mahomes of him
having to be Superman all the time, you're going to
have to be able to rush the ball for eighty
ninety yards the game consistently. So keep number one, keep
the defense off the field, keep them, but take some
of that pressure off Patrick Mahomes for having to make
a miraculous play time and time again. It's just too much.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
That's why they ran Andy Reid out of Philadelphia.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
He would not run the football, you know, That's why
he had to move on, right, it was ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Go ahead, yes, so yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever, alright, I'm
moving on from that. Whatever, all right, how about the Lions?
All right?
Speaker 4 (25:23):
How about the Lions not making it? I A'm talking
about the Lions. I'm talking about Buffalo.
Speaker 7 (25:27):
Hey.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
I told Rob from that, I said, this is Josh
Allen's you know, the boogeyman's out in the Kansas City
Chiefs and Mahomes, who we always beats in regular season,
we couldn't beat him in the playoffs. Lamar might make it. Well,
still got to see. But even if they do, they're
not the best version of the Ravens in the last
four or five years. And the only other thing is
a bunch of young guys.
Speaker 10 (25:46):
Right.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Do you believe in Drake Made it'll be his first time?
You believe in bow Knicks? Do you believe in Justin Herbert?
And as far as the AFC. So the question is
is there a better time for Josh Allen to get
to a Super Bowl than this year?
Speaker 7 (26:00):
Well, no, it's not. It's not a better time. But
you also have to be cautious. Those young quarterbacks that
you mentioned are attached to dynamic head coaches and that's
the danger for Josh Allen and his legacy. What he
can't afford to do is get into the playoffs with
with no Patrick Mahomes and and and and no uh
(26:23):
Lamar Lamar Lamar Jackson and not win the Super Bowl.
That's what you can't do. You can't afford to not
be at your best and to win this thing because expectations.
If all that holds, Pat and those other top elite
quarterbacks aren't in the postseason, Joe Burrow won't be there.
(26:43):
So you're essentially going up against a bunch of young
guns and if he doesn't win that this is more
pressure this ship than if Patrick Mahomes and everybody else
was in it, because at least you could say Patrick
Mahomes or Lamar or is Joe Burrow? Now it's dracon
by What is Trevor Lawrence?
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (27:02):
What what his bonnick?
Speaker 1 (27:05):
That's now You're in.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
A situation where like, yo, bro, uh, look you you
better show up and show out. And I don't know
if they have the weapons on the outside to be
able to compete with some of those teams.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
Ye, how about the Indianapolis coach? I do want to
go there, Philip Rivers, that man, that was a That
was a game. To me, you have to win, Ephraim
Uh you go to Seattle, you hold him without a touchdown, right,
and you can't beat them in that situation. That's a
game you gotta win. And he looks he doesn't look right,
(27:38):
you know what I mean? I know he gotta threw
a touchdown or whatever.
Speaker 7 (27:42):
He doesn't look right? What how was he was he
supposed to look around?
Speaker 1 (27:46):
Well, I'm just talking about he's too puffy to be
an NFL. No, he literally doesn't look right. He didn't
mean the game I met, I met my wife.
Speaker 7 (27:54):
My wife we were watching him. My wife was like,
why does his body look like?
Speaker 4 (28:00):
What's this?
Speaker 7 (28:00):
Because he's been doing what I've been doing for the
last five years. He's been hanging out same same reason.
My body looked away. It looks man. Hell, I mean Ken,
he older than you. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
So it's one of those.
Speaker 7 (28:13):
Situations where I was actually pleasantly surprised that he was
able to make some of the throws and and actually
survive against that Seattle defense like that. I was thoroughly impressed.
And what I will tell you is he's going to
look better next week.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
To put it on him, oh well, they're.
Speaker 7 (28:36):
Gonna put it on him, but I'm saying him mechanically
will look better because he'll have another week under his belt. Uh.
Just getting back into the groove of an actual NFL game. Man,
it's hard to get off the couch and go play
a game yafter four or five years.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
That's why.
Speaker 7 (28:56):
You all know that anything he drove him down, they
got to see they got the six yard field goal
or whatever. He was right there. He did what he
was supposed to do. I know he had eleven seconds,
you know, on that final drive to a pick, but
he's trying to push the ball down the field, which
you know, hell, he pushing it down the field like
I would push it down the field barely.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
Right now, again, I do want to ask you about
the Lions. Where was your preseason pick on the Lions?
I want to know where he was because I said
on this very radio show that they could win ten
games and still not make the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
And that's what I have.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
Where are you on the Lions? Because obviously that lost
to the Rams. They can't afford another loss.
Speaker 7 (29:37):
Now I was I was hesitant and about the Lions
losing both of their coordinators. That's difficult to survive. And
you may say, well, they still got the same players
and all that, but it's just a different voice and
a different energy. You got Dan Campbell calling plays now
because Ben Johnson has resurrected the Bears, and so it's
(30:00):
one of those situations where I knew they be I
knew they'd be competing, but I knew they wouldn't be
as dominant as they had been defensively and offensively. You
got to remember last year they were doing amazing things,
and their entire defense was on I R. And once
once you lose uh, you know, those voices at the
(30:23):
coordinator position, Once you lose those, then your your team
takes on a different identity. And I know it's it's
cut in the vein of of Dan Campbell and and
and how he wants them to be tough. But in
terms of execution and where guys are supposed to be,
that's where the offensive coordinators come in. The defensive and
(30:43):
offensive coordinator excuse me, come in come into play. And
not having those guys in the building, you could see
the difference in this team.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
They still got a shot. You there, They're still there.
Speaker 4 (30:55):
He sounds like he's sick if the lines don't make
the playoffs. He owes me a pair of Jordan I
will be sick. That'll be we've been that'll be well,
that'll be. We'll be on the show for less than
two years, and I will have won two pair of
Jordan's from this man.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Now would have made me more sick is difference Jordan's. Hey,
I've seen some downtown l don't tell him. Don't tell
me them things. He gonna be like, dang, what a soul?
Came off already, don't worry about it.
Speaker 7 (31:27):
