from Fox Sports. He is an NFL reporter and he'll
be joining us in about twenty seven minutes. And also
one's gotta go, so we got a busy hour coming up,
(01:54):
rob g. The World Series is over and now the
focuses on h R. WES the Hall of Fame, Baseball
of Fame. I'm a card carrying, proud Hall of Fame voter.
You know that we always release it here on the
Odd Couple what I'm gonna vote for, Who I'm gonna
vote for, whatnot? And I'm gonna tell you right off
(02:14):
the bat, without doing a deep dive, just looking at
the list cold, I don't.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
See a vote from me. I see a zero this year.
I see a zero.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
What names on there? But I still have to do
my deep dog. I'm just saying looking at it, just no,
I got you first look without research.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Well, if you don't want to vote for the upcoming class,
maybe you should put in a good word with the
eras committee, maybe you're doing one of their sixteen padelets
and vote on this next one. Because the famously Barry
Bonds arguably the best player who's ever played bass.
Speaker 6 (02:50):
If you ever talked to any players, they all like
Matty I told you about four or five people, no argument.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Now he's in that list.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Roger Clemens will the best pitcher who ever lived one
seven so young. Neither one of those guys are in
the Hall of Fame because of their ties to the
steroid era of the Mitchell Reports, so on and so far.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
And one of the things Roger clembings three hundred and
fifty four wins, that's that's just you had a number.
I just get three fifty four like people would get
two hundred. What did Cla clayk Kirschwaw's getting in the
Hall of Fame? Does he have bowl to to ten
to twelve something like that? You know what three fifty
four is crazy?
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Three fifty four he won three hundred and fifty four.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
I mean that's like twenty wins over like fifteen seasons
or something.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Crazy. This is unreal.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
But again because of the allegation, neither one of them
got into Cooperstown on the Writer's ballot. However, I don't
know if you guys know about this. I know Rob
does does no. I know you're a baseball guy, of
course you know this. Monte didn't know about it. The
contemporary base somebody, Yeah, Okay, Alex Box is going. I
(04:01):
just worked for the d I don't know about baseball.
So they have something called the Contemporary Baseball Era ballot,
which is for players whose greatest contributions to the game
have come since nineteen eighty And what do you know,
Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens are among eight players up
for induction this upcoming winter. There's only sixteen people in
(04:22):
the committee. If twelve of them say yes they deserve it,
then despite all of the years of voting on the
real ballot, Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens will finally get
into the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Okay, Kelvin, you know me and baseball in the Hall
of Fame. It is the highest honor. I tell you
all the time, I am honored to vote for the Baseball.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Hall of Fame. You said to bury you with your card? Yes,
I told you that, right, did you know that?
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Bow When they bury me my Baseball Writers card will
be on a lanyard around my neck. Right, it's already
instructions on my will and everything like that? Is that
no ifen? That is how much it means to me
to be one of.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
Do you want us to take the press box, like
the wood there, and what do you put that?
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I want to put that in there too. I want
to be buried in the press.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
There.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
It is not the casket, the press box, press box.
Take the wood from the press box, put me in that.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Put my Baseball Hall of Fame, Baseball rider's cart around
my neck, and the high school mural a piece of that.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Put that you could drape that over me. Okay, what
else we got Rob?
Speaker 6 (05:40):
I'm thinking anything else we can think of the manifest
it'll be right on top of it. Is Hey, Rob's
casket brought to you by MLB. Bro because it needs
because it's Bro. Is dead because it's Bro. Is no
mo because it's Bro and no more. That's pretty good, right,
that's what literations. Boy, I'm gonna do races, so you
(06:01):
know how much it means to me.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
That was funny.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
I do not like this process because it feels like
they're going in. If they were to get in and
it's not even a guaranteed you because twelve out of
sixteen is a high threshold. Yeah, okay, that's a high threat.
It's not like majority, right, and you get what is
(06:25):
it sixteen?
Speaker 4 (06:25):
You get nine votes? You know nine out of the sixteen.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
That what was high twelve is hot. I don't understand
the idea that you could be on the ballot for
ten years. There were other guys won about for fifteen
years before they reduced it to ten. It used to
be fifteen. And after ten years of not getting in,
they put you on this contemporary ballot, which makes no
(06:51):
sense to me.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Which but just for those who it means you played
in the era of the nineteen eighties and up.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Just to make sure it's not further back than that
nineteen eighty h like Don Mattingly, Don Maddley retired like
twenty some odd years ago.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
Why is he back? Like did they don't disrespect his
times with the Blue Jays? Right, they got to a
World Series? Don't do that.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Why in the world did they uncover a season that
we didn't count in his stats? Like they went to
Egypt or Israel and they turned over a stone and
they go, there's this Don Mattingly played in nineteen eighty
eighty four season.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Exactly, we have to add this to his stats. Now,
let's we look at it. When you get my changed,
nothing nothing has changed.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
And Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens, they were on that
on that ballot last year.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
Again, Clemons actually had to get off for a few
years because if you don't get a certain threshold, you
fall off for three cycles.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
But here's the thing. Now, now I think they let
you two years.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
They've grandfathered those guys in, but now after two years
you're off.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
But my point is, if you don't get in ten years.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
From the writers and they put you on a contemporary
and you don't get in there, why would it need
another year. I don't understand what's changing other than people
bending and saying, well, this is the last year in
the ballot, So I guess if we're gonna vote, we
gotta put them on.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Like, listen, we want to ask you that's cut podcasts
cut you off. But because you brought a great point,
is there an element of that like a I knew
you were a Hall of Famer, but not a first
ballot like I'm gonna give it all right, you've waited
your penance, You paid your penance, it's been enough time.
Now you can get in. You think there's a not
you because clearly you know how you vote. But I'm saying,
(08:41):
do you think there's an element of your contemporaries who
feel like you've paid the price enough now I'll let
you in.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
There could be people like that. I think it's moronic.
And here's my issue with the whole idea of first
ballot and down the road.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
If you're gonna put them in the Hall of Fames,
put them in.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Put either you're a Hall of Famer or you're not.
Whether you're good in the first year, your third year,
your tenth year, you're still putting them in. So what
stopped you from voting? You have you have ten votes? Yeah,
there's not ten people that need so you can't say, well,
I didn't have enough votes. That's why he didn't make
my first No, you have ten votes. There are not
(09:22):
ten Hall of Famers on every rag valley, you know that.
Look how few people actually get in. I'm telling you
last year was it?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Each year? Row CC and.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Billy Wagner those were and Billy Wagner was on his
last year again, people didn't vote for Billy Wagner for
nine years.
Speaker 6 (09:43):
And that's what I mean. Was it the all right,
I guess I'll do it now. Let me all right,
let me, let me, let me, let me jump me.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
You or you are right with going in through the
back door.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
Here's why I am specifically, man, So here's why I
am and vote of the contemporary votes.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
Let me clarify and clean that up a little bit.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
Specifically when it comes to the two guys we're talking about,
Roger Clemens and also Barry Bond. I was a grown up.
I was a grown up Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens.
Hear me out, Ron, Let me offer this this perspective.
I'm sick. I know the reason why, specifically for these two,
and we've all talked about it before, well before I
(10:31):
was on the show. I'm sure you and Brew even
before Brew, I'm sure you talked about it. Those two
guys pre the idea and the timeline of steroids, those
half of those careers were eligible for the Hall of.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
Fame and getting an again in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I'm not gonna stop. Yeah, right, and I want to
be on the record. I voted for them, both of
them for the entire ten years.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Okay, so I get your point. But to me, now,
once you went through the gauntlet, didn't get in last year,
whatever the year was they wanted to co temporary, didn't
get in again with that two years ago.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
I'll tell you why, though you are right with going
in through the back door. Dang it, now I forgot
who screwed me last night? Alex? Could you stop?
Speaker 6 (11:20):
This is I'm trying to have a serious Monty. I'm
trying to be an adult, have an amazing point of
listen to these perspectives. I was about to drop MYNTT.
I've ruined it. I'm gonna come over to kick that monitor. Now,
let me offer you this, Rob, if we can somehow
bring it back, You and I and Rob g Monty.
Everybody watched MLB postseason and who had it the postseason? Fox?
(11:42):
Fox had it right. Who's sitting on that panel David
Ortiz who in two thousand and three, his name was
on the list we all love Big Poppy. I said
to you, he's the Charles Barkley of the broadcast. It
wouldn't be the same without them. He sits up there now.
(12:04):
The last couple of years, who sits up there Alex Rodriguez,
the same guy who got busted and called twice correct
me if I'm wrong. And now with that, and also
I think the admission and more of the understanding that
baseball knew in nineteen ninety three, the FBI came to
Bud Ceiling and said, hey, your guy. You got a guy,
(12:26):
Marko Brier who has been on using steroids. They said,
la la la la, la la la la. Fast forward
a handful of years, you get the summer that saved
baseball in nineteen ninety eight, which it did him and
saved again. My point is, I think what you're seeing
Rob specifically with these two is guys saying, you know what,
the more we get away from it, the more the
(12:46):
smoke clears. We realized it was some bs going on
in MLB. They were complicit, They knew. They didn't even
have no implement implementation of testing until two thousand and two,
when they knew for a decade because the FBI came to.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Him because it wasn't illegal, because it wasn't illegally back.
Speaker 6 (13:01):
On their list because they know, hey, guys are hitting
thirty home runs who normally wouldn't forty home runs are
normally it's looking making the sport look great.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
We know guys are doing it. We're turning a blind eye.
Speaker 6 (13:11):
So for baseball and its writers to then go, well,
I'm not going to put you in the Hall of Fame.
Barry Bonce, who was amazing brieforce steroids, amazing during possibly steroids,
and Mark McGuire and Roger Clemens, all these guys, I
think people are starting to realize how hypocritical it is,
and they're starting to realize we need to all just
admit that was an air about a twenty year air,
give take, but we're gonna all get past it. And
(13:32):
these are two guys if anybody was to get in,
Roger Clemens and barrybonx A. But I think that's why
you're starting to here's a pushback on your yeah, because
the sixteen people are not the writers.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
They're former players in former Hall of famers who are
the ones who did not put those guys in when
the time came.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Do you see what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
But I'm telling you, I think it's an overall ethos,
a change of mind.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
But it's some of those Hall of Famous who are
the ones who voted against them.
Speaker 6 (14:04):
But I'm saying public opinions start to change, and I
think public's opinions starting to change. You know what, I'm
not saying, I want my kids to go out here
and you steroids play baseball. But if it was a
whole era where you got some former players mark Mark
jose Canseco saying it was as prevalent as coffee. You
got so many guys saying I'd say about forty fifty percent,
(14:25):
other saying thirty percent. You know, it all varies that
many guys were using. I think you almost have to
just wipe your hands clean. Either nobody gets in or
you just start to say, like, I gotta just look
at the numbers, and then I'm gonna put a whole
asterisk and say from twenty twenty five years whatever you
want to put it, baseball as a cloud. It was
a stair, a post, you know, the steroid air.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
And admit it.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
It's okay, we all love the sport. Ratings were through
the roof. It's okay, just admit it. This is what
it was. We were complicit us as an MLB. We
turned the blind eye. Gods took advantage of it. It
is what it is. And I think more people are
starting to become okay with that because they realize that's
just what it was. And I'm not gonna leave these
two guys up. So now you're gonna have most home
(15:05):
runs ever, not in Pete Rose, not in well, Pete
Rose is a different I'm just saying, so you keep
having these guys and one of the greatest pictures seven
Cy Younger with Roger Clemens not.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
In eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Would you have a problem with Barry Bonds and Roger
Clemens getting into the Hall of Fame through the back door?

Speaker 8 (19:13):
Well, what's up?
Speaker 9 (19:13):
Man?
Speaker 10 (19:13):
Just thresh out the county clinks man. Been listening to
you in the jail, man.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
It was got me through.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Hey we going back?
Speaker 6 (19:23):
Right?
Speaker 4 (19:23):
We ain't going back?
Speaker 10 (19:25):
No, no, no, we ain't going back. I'm fighting this,
fighting this case. But it was from May of twenty man.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
They walked it and then they brought it back up
on me. A couple of years ago. I don't even
know well, but I want you to know.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Do not trade our show for a pack of smokes. Okay,
don't do that.
Speaker 10 (19:40):
Never never that, never that. But no, Hey, these guys,
I think I think the players that are getting this
correction for him, or if they do get this correction
for him, I think they're going to be the ones
that are more more reluctant.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
To embrace it, man, because it's kind of cheap, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 10 (19:56):
I'd be like, it's kind of like, you know, yeah,
y'all doing me, and now he bought me all these years?
Speaker 4 (20:02):
You want me in now and now I get that.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I get that point, like like the idea that how
come I didn't get in, you know what I mean?
With the writers and with the way that most people
get in, there's got to be a secondary committee.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
Want to get in.
Speaker 6 (20:15):
I feel you, Trent, thank you for the call, brother,
But they want to get in. They gotta be crying.
You're gonna see Barry buff Bonds trying. I mean, Harris
in Columbus, Ohio. You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 8 (20:26):
What's up, hey, how you doing?
Speaker 7 (20:28):
Man?
Speaker 8 (20:28):
I really enjoy you guys show man than.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Thank you, hey man.
Speaker 8 (20:33):
You know, I want to say this man, because you know,
it's too much politicans involved and everything. And it really
bothers me with the fact that I read an article
about Rick Riley it was years ago, and how he
was talking about how prickly Barry Bonds was and he
told me he was. I mean, he didn't kill me,
but hero he said that he was on the voting committee,
you know. And I'm like, Dave pumped the test one time.
(20:53):
But nobody never brings that up though, you know, but
they love big copy.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
The heart me bring it up.
Speaker 8 (20:58):
Yeah, no, media, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (21:00):
That's the part of that.
Speaker 8 (21:01):
Them like with he very Bond he had to have
his own Loune chair and he was I guess he was.
But what did that have to do what he did
on the field.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Nothing.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
But I will say this point, Harris is well taken.
But here's the only thing. That Bonds was a bad
guy to the press. Okay, facts, But and I brought
this up to you a million times. They voted him
m v P seven times. So if they wanted to,
if they wanted to take it out on him and
(21:28):
be like, yo, you ain't really cool with us. You
may give it up making our jobs harder. They could
have done it. They could have done it if they
really wanted to, and they didn't do it. So that's
the only part. Give him write his credit.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Yeah you know what I mean, Like like like that's
I might not like to do. But Dan, he was
about he was about playing the league. Like, how could
you not vote for him?
Speaker 6 (21:49):
All right, appreciate the call. Shout out to all of
you who called in on this again. Greg Arben on

Speaker 1 (22:37):
Excellent on this Wednesday. I used to love all your music.
Oh that's the Greg Almond man.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
He's tired of that. He's tired of how many times
you heard that?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Yeah, I kind of thought when he passed away, they
would like die down.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
And there's a bunch of Rob Parker's Yes, we're living
a pass can't help it. Uh, let's just go here
with the Indianapolis Colts and the trade, and I thought
they gave up way too much.
Speaker 4 (23:01):
I have a bigger issue with them buying into.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Danny Dimes Daniel Jones and thinking they're going to the
AFC Championship Game.
Speaker 4 (23:10):
Did you like this move or you think there was
too premature?
Speaker 3 (23:13):
I mean I like it from the Aulians standpoint. I
think they have a window where they're better than expected
and you want to have a chance to turn good
into great. I do think there's a decent chance that
these two first round picks they sent to New York
are not that high bottom eight in the round both
years if things go right. I don't really see that
much of a chance of them imploting next year. So
(23:35):
it's one of those where there's not many chances to
get a guy like a Sauce Gardener. So to do that,
I know, two first rounders sounds like a lot, but
it's kind of like one number ten pick is probably
worth more than the two picks they send them if
you look at it that way.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Are you convinced that Daniel Jones has turned a corner
because I look at him and I see him beating
up on bad teams, and then the Rams and Colts
not so much.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
So yeah, I mean.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
Steelers, Yeah right, I mean he just had a five
turnover game, so that definitely I wondered if this was
a little bit of a panicky we need to offset
what if they don't continue to play at a high
level in offense, we got to ramp up the defense.
I think he's done a very good job of being
exactly what he needs to win. Some of that's just
(24:26):
handing the ball off twenty times again to Jonathan Taylor,
you know, but minimizing his mistakes. So when you see
a game like he had this past weekend, it should
be caused for concern. But it's kind of been the
exception to the rules so far.
Speaker 6 (24:37):
All right, let me ask you this, staying with the trades,
the Cowboys making a couple of defensive trades some other
teams that people were saying, you know, you look at
the Lions, who've been injured a lot the last couple
of years. They didn't make trades. A lot of Lion
fans were upset, Hey is it in two years? They
didn't do anything? Two years now not making any moves.
So you got the Cowboys, you made a couple moves.
Teams that didn't. Any other teams that you like. Maybe
(24:58):
you like the Cowboys moves are other teams didn't.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
I didn't really like the Cowboys moves. Cowboys are three
and five and one and they have like a four
percent chance of making the playoffs. So even if you
think of quinnin Williams as a long term asset, I
just think they gave back at least half of what
they got when they gave up Michael Parsons. So you
shed Mike cah Parsons and now they have three twenty
million dollar defensive tackles. And it just it it doesn't
(25:25):
seem like the same people are making this all these decisions.
They don't line up very well in terms of other things.
I thought Seattle did a great job to get Rashid
Shaheed without having to give too much. They're almost overloaded
at receiver. Now that's a really talented group, and I
think they had done well to get five touchdowns out
of Tory Horton, but this had the whole other element.
If you look at Rashid Shaheed a year ago when
(25:46):
he had Clint Kubiak his offensive coordinator, he's getting seventeen
yards of catch, one of the best in the NFL.
This year, new coordinator, worst offense in New Orleans, he's
getting like eleven yards catch. So I think he adds
another deep ball element sales team, and I thought they'd
be added to a strength. So was impressed by that.
Jaguars I thought were a little bit different situation than
(26:07):
they were hurting at receiver. I mean, they're not getting
what they want from from Brian Thomas Junior Trayas Hunder's hurt.
So you know, to get Kobe Myers gives gives Lawrence
to me a reliable, high volume receiver you can throw
ten targets to game at and know you're going to
get seventy yards and the occasional touchdown. That kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
How surprised are you where we are in the NFC
North five two and one couple of five and three
teams including the Bears, and that was a huge win
by Minnesota that saved your season in Detroit. What do
you make of that division? I have the Lions, not
Greg n Olt making the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Wow, that'd be surprising. Yeah, it's that division. You think
about last year best division of football and then goes
oh and three in the playoffs. So it's kind of
like which was the real legit identity of that division?
And again here it is regular season and they're beating
up on everybody. I mean, Chicago looks and it's dead
last out of that division. So I think they're going
to keep beating up on each other is the problem.
So I think where in last year you had whatever
(27:08):
a fifteen win and a fourteen win team in that division,
I think they're going to beat up on each other more.
And I don't think anybody's going to get the one
seed out of that division. So I think it means
Green Bay or Detroit has to go on the road
somewhere else, and that makes it even harder for them
to win in the postseason. But it's impressive there. We're
all four teams in that division are above five hundred
right now they're doing well.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Hey where are you?
Speaker 6 (27:29):
And by the way, I guess Greg alb and Fox
Sports n FAG reporter on with the yacup on a
worship Wednesday, where are you? Big win for the Bills
on the other end, this is just what they do now.
Josh All's now five and oer the regular season against
the Chiefs?
Speaker 4 (27:41):
Where was that game for you? Sit back?
Speaker 6 (27:43):
A setback for the Chiefs or just say they'll still
be fine? And did the Bills right? What might have
been starting to concern people being so Josh Allen relyant.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
No, I think the Bills did a good job there.
And if this is one of those words for Buffalo,
all the regular six season success in the world is
going to have that. Okay, Well, let's wait and see
what they do in January. All Buffalo can do right
now is try to get the best seed they can
try and make sure they're hosting playoff games and not
going to get the city not going you know, Indianapolis.
(28:13):
I don't know, that's a terrible place to play. But
they can control how much of an advantage they have
in the postseason, and that to me goes a long
way towards getting the wins they haven't been able to
get for the Chiefs. I mean, the Chiefs I think
are almost better off kind of being low key, lurking,
hiding people not putting them at number one or number
two in the power rankings and letting them sit around
(28:35):
eight and just be a team that somehow people underestimate,
you know, because.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Why Greg, why shouldn't we Why should we not underestimate
them when they haven't been the team's over five hundred?
Speaker 4 (28:48):
Right? They have four losses.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Yeah, And here's the other thing that last year they
were eleven and oh in one score games.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
This year they're oning four. Like there's some signs there.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
And even last week against the Bills, Patrick Mahomes had
zero touchdowns, Right, And because everybody thought the offense is back,
they're unstoppable because they beat up on three.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Teams, you know, three weeks in a row.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
And I'm just saying, I'm looking at the numbers, there's
some things there that why should they not why should
all four losses be against good teams?
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Shock?
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Right?
Speaker 3 (29:20):
I mean like I saw him in Jacksonville a couple
weeks ago, and they didn't look like the same team
against Jacksonville in terms of letting things get away from them.
So no, I mean, I think everybody's hat to take
a step back, right, and I expected that they're. To me,
they're a little bit like the Patriots tour at the
end with Brady, where so much of all of Kansas
City's success has been them dominating at home in the playoffs,
(29:41):
and they're probably not going to have maybe even any
playoff games at home right now, so it's a different challenge.
I mean, I forget how many. It's like literally one
or two. I mean, Mahomes went to Baltimore in the
AFC Championship Game two years ago. It might be his
only full trough road playoff game they'd had. So they're
gonna have to do something new that they're going to
have to win on the road in the playoffs. And
(30:03):
it's not say they can't do it. I don't think
we've seen them playing clicking on all cylinders. I think
the offensive pieces have been missing. They've had injuries, they've
dealt with offensive line, they lose a tackle for a month,
So I think they're still finding themselves. Obviously the pieces
are there, just you don't know how much they've I mean,
they've lost some key people on defense just through normal attrition,
(30:25):
and I don't know, we don't know some of the
new faces as well. But I think it's completely understandable
to question. I think, what are they five and three
right now? Is that it? Yeah, like I said, five
and four is one mistake, unexpected loss away from being
on the outside looking in, you know, like in the
A if they were in the NSC right now, they
(30:46):
wouldn't be in right now. So, like I said, I think,
is it a cause for concern? I didn't think the
Chiefs were going to be a thirteen win team this year.
I just thought they'd be a wild card playoff team.
And you don't really want to face Patrick Mahomes in
the playoffs, even if it's at your place and you
feel like you have the better team.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
The only thing I worry about is what Andy Reid's
going to order from that menu On the side lead,
I was like, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
Feel like Andy Reid in the regular season is using
you know, of his playbook and the creativity. I think
he's saving his best stuff for January, you know, Greg, and.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
He really meant actual the menu. You're over here, Greg,
you're over here. Making sense, being smart, being rational. No,
he's actually just saying that big flam, that big placu
or not a metaphor. He's actually saying, he thinks, Greg,
thank you so much. Man appreciate it. Greg All may
give him a follow on X. All right, One's got

Speaker 6 (32:54):
Hear me out, all right? So we talked about it
before yesterday. Shout out to you and Carrie Carrie rose
Field in for you boy. Because I was at jury
duty and I did not get selected.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
Was there about one hundred hundred and fifty people here?
Speaker 7 (33:06):
Ye?
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Hear ye?
Speaker 6 (33:06):
Hit me with the law and ordered bomooom and h
Was there about one hundred and fifty people and essentially
a hundred monty had to go off and go actually
see if they're gonna get selected in front of a judge,
in front of the lawyers. And they would come back,
some with numbers, some didn't get, you know, selected. Then
you had the rest of us who stick around. We
were what they called extras. If they needed more in
the pool, that was us. So I sat around, Rob.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
I would have been there and it would have been
like extra extra extra.
Speaker 6 (33:33):
Therefore, nine hours, nine hours, seven thirty almost fourth throw
whatever it was, and they.
Speaker 4 (33:40):
Do this is punishment. It's just punishment, punishment.
Speaker 6 (33:43):
So my question to you all the ones got to
go is while I was there and while everyone else
was there, I started to notice things.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
How does one kill nine hours? Oh it's easy. If
I was that ass I'm not done, do you.
Speaker 6 (33:56):
I saw several people they were prepared, rob they read
a book. Several people played games on their phone. You
can see him playing Tetris, Solitaire, some other games, candy
crumbs whatever.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
I could see that.
Speaker 6 (34:08):
Some people walked around because they had a nice little terrorists.
You could walk around, make phone calls and knock out
some calls, whether it be work or just friends or family.
Some people knocked out, drooling, took naps, and lastly some
people socialized and it was like a little click of
them have fun talking. And I'm not saying they didn't
do little variations of other things for nine hours.
Speaker 4 (34:27):
You might as well try to pick up somebody. There
was a little bit of that going on there.
Speaker 7 (34:31):
You know.
Speaker 4 (34:31):
It was a couple ladies up in there. I to
see some dudes, U click it. That's how you started
the conversation round. I thought that was killed stall him
out on the worship Wednesday.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
All right, So my question to you is one's gotta
go read a book, games and not I'm not saying
you can go on social apps. Has to be games,
so solitary, tetris, all these kind of things, phone calls,
nap or just socializing.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
Which one would you not do to kill nine hours?
Speaker 1 (34:54):
Well, first, I'd say I would have been making out
with Della Street.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Remember she was the secretary of on Harry Mason. I'm
about to throw you on the streets. Don't nobody remember
I remember Dela Reice, Della Street. I know Dela Reice. Alright,
go ahead to anybody.
Speaker 11 (35:11):
All right, this is easy for me because I am
not sleeping in public, So I don't care if i'm
I'm not going to sleep in public. I can barely
sleep on my own time by myself.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
You're not a plain sleeper.
Speaker 11 (35:21):
I'm not a plain sleeper.
Speaker 4 (35:22):

tell your safety you're gone.
Speaker 4 (35:27):

just want you to know so I look important but.
Speaker 11 (36:07):
Feeling. Don't ask me what I don't want to talk
to you? I don't, and I guess I don't want
to talk to strangers about sports because I'm just.
Speaker 4 (36:14):

one has to go? I'm not talking to nobody.
Speaker 6 (36:54):
Okay, really too, you get into the shallow depths of
the seas of the ocean.

No, so I see it's need to know basis at
this point, all right, and.

It's on your boy. The answer for me, what do
you think it would be just knowing me?
Speaker 4 (37:07):
For you? Yeah? Walking? Yeah, you're not walking nowhere.

You're not going nowhere? Wow, sitting down? What they're trying
to say? I know, I'm a little pudgy right now.
He's pudgy.
Speaker 4 (37:18):
You know. He more likely drop down and do push
ups in the middle of the room. You do know me?
Speaker 11 (37:23):
The answer is, you're not reading the book.
Speaker 6 (37:25):
No, I was teed off. I didn't bring it. I
just didn't think to do that. I thought we were
gonna get active. I didn't know socialized. Yeah, can you
believe that socialize.
Speaker 5 (37:36):
I cannot believe that I would socialize all day.
Speaker 6 (37:39):
We know, yes, I talk on for hours. I talk
on radio for hours. I have three daughters, and I
talk all day.
Speaker 11 (37:49):
You just want silent.
Speaker 6 (37:50):
If your boy just wants to chill and and and
read a book, or play a game or make a couple.
Speaker 11 (37:54):
Of you can sleep like all this. It's what I'm saying.
Every It would have to be pitch black and so
quiet for me to sleep.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
And Robber Gee, I would say, I know you do
something else for a living, but I could be your mentor.

one's gotta go, so we got a busy hour coming up,
(01:54):
rob g. The World Series is over and now the
focuses on h R. WES the Hall of Fame, Baseball
of Fame. I'm a card carrying, proud Hall of Fame voter.
You know that we always release it here on the
Odd Couple what I'm gonna vote for, Who I'm gonna
vote for, whatnot? And I'm gonna tell you right off
(02:14):
the bat, without doing a deep dive, just looking at
the list cold, I don't.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
See a vote from me. I see a zero this year.
I see a zero.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
What names on there? But I still have to do
my deep dog. I'm just saying looking at it, just no,
I got you first look without research.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Well, if you don't want to vote for the upcoming class,
maybe you should put in a good word with the
eras committee, maybe you're doing one of their sixteen padelets
and vote on this next one. Because the famously Barry
Bonds arguably the best player who's ever played bass.
Speaker 6 (02:50):
If you ever talked to any players, they all like
Matty I told you about four or five people, no argument.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Now he's in that list.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Roger Clemens will the best pitcher who ever lived one
seven so young. Neither one of those guys are in
the Hall of Fame because of their ties to the
steroid era of the Mitchell Reports, so on and so far.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
And one of the things Roger clembings three hundred and
fifty four wins, that's that's just you had a number.
I just get three fifty four like people would get
two hundred. What did Cla clayk Kirschwaw's getting in the
Hall of Fame? Does he have bowl to to ten
to twelve something like that? You know what three fifty
four is crazy?
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Three fifty four he won three hundred and fifty four.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
I mean that's like twenty wins over like fifteen seasons
or something.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Crazy. This is unreal.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
But again because of the allegation, neither one of them
got into Cooperstown on the Writer's ballot. However, I don't
know if you guys know about this. I know Rob
does does no. I know you're a baseball guy, of
course you know this. Monte didn't know about it. The
contemporary base somebody, Yeah, Okay, Alex Box is going. I
(04:01):
just worked for the d I don't know about baseball.
So they have something called the Contemporary Baseball Era ballot,
which is for players whose greatest contributions to the game
have come since nineteen eighty And what do you know,
Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens are among eight players up
for induction this upcoming winter. There's only sixteen people in
(04:22):
the committee. If twelve of them say yes they deserve it,
then despite all of the years of voting on the
real ballot, Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens will finally get
into the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Okay, Kelvin, you know me and baseball in the Hall
of Fame. It is the highest honor. I tell you
all the time, I am honored to vote for the Baseball.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Hall of Fame. You said to bury you with your card? Yes,
I told you that, right, did you know that?
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Bow When they bury me my Baseball Writers card will
be on a lanyard around my neck. Right, it's already
instructions on my will and everything like that? Is that
no ifen? That is how much it means to me
to be one of.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
Do you want us to take the press box, like
the wood there, and what do you put that?
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I want to put that in there too. I want
to be buried in the press.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
There.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
It is not the casket, the press box, press box.
Take the wood from the press box, put me in that.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Put my Baseball Hall of Fame, Baseball rider's cart around
my neck, and the high school mural a piece of that.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Put that you could drape that over me. Okay, what
else we got Rob?
Speaker 6 (05:40):
I'm thinking anything else we can think of the manifest
it'll be right on top of it. Is Hey, Rob's
casket brought to you by MLB. Bro because it needs
because it's Bro. Is dead because it's Bro. Is no
mo because it's Bro and no more. That's pretty good, right,
that's what literations. Boy, I'm gonna do races, so you
(06:01):
know how much it means to me.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
That was funny.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
I do not like this process because it feels like
they're going in. If they were to get in and
it's not even a guaranteed you because twelve out of
sixteen is a high threshold. Yeah, okay, that's a high threat.
It's not like majority, right, and you get what is
(06:25):
it sixteen?
Speaker 4 (06:25):
You get nine votes? You know nine out of the sixteen.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
That what was high twelve is hot. I don't understand
the idea that you could be on the ballot for
ten years. There were other guys won about for fifteen
years before they reduced it to ten. It used to
be fifteen. And after ten years of not getting in,
they put you on this contemporary ballot, which makes no
(06:51):
sense to me.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Which but just for those who it means you played
in the era of the nineteen eighties and up.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Just to make sure it's not further back than that
nineteen eighty h like Don Mattingly, Don Maddley retired like
twenty some odd years ago.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
Why is he back? Like did they don't disrespect his
times with the Blue Jays? Right, they got to a
World Series? Don't do that.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Why in the world did they uncover a season that
we didn't count in his stats? Like they went to
Egypt or Israel and they turned over a stone and
they go, there's this Don Mattingly played in nineteen eighty
eighty four season.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Exactly, we have to add this to his stats. Now,
let's we look at it. When you get my changed,
nothing nothing has changed.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
And Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens, they were on that
on that ballot last year.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
Again, Clemons actually had to get off for a few
years because if you don't get a certain threshold, you
fall off for three cycles.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
But here's the thing. Now, now I think they let
you two years.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
They've grandfathered those guys in, but now after two years
you're off.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
But my point is, if you don't get in ten years.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
From the writers and they put you on a contemporary
and you don't get in there, why would it need
another year. I don't understand what's changing other than people
bending and saying, well, this is the last year in
the ballot, So I guess if we're gonna vote, we
gotta put them on.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Like, listen, we want to ask you that's cut podcasts
cut you off. But because you brought a great point,
is there an element of that like a I knew
you were a Hall of Famer, but not a first
ballot like I'm gonna give it all right, you've waited
your penance, You paid your penance, it's been enough time.
Now you can get in. You think there's a not
you because clearly you know how you vote. But I'm saying,
(08:41):
do you think there's an element of your contemporaries who
feel like you've paid the price enough now I'll let
you in.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
There could be people like that. I think it's moronic.
And here's my issue with the whole idea of first
ballot and down the road.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
If you're gonna put them in the Hall of Fames,
put them in.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Put either you're a Hall of Famer or you're not.
Whether you're good in the first year, your third year,
your tenth year, you're still putting them in. So what
stopped you from voting? You have you have ten votes? Yeah,
there's not ten people that need so you can't say, well,
I didn't have enough votes. That's why he didn't make
my first No, you have ten votes. There are not
(09:22):
ten Hall of Famers on every rag valley, you know that.
Look how few people actually get in. I'm telling you
last year was it?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Each year? Row CC and.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Billy Wagner those were and Billy Wagner was on his
last year again, people didn't vote for Billy Wagner for
nine years.
Speaker 6 (09:43):
And that's what I mean. Was it the all right,
I guess I'll do it now. Let me all right,
let me, let me, let me, let me jump me.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
You or you are right with going in through the
back door.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
Here's why I am specifically, man, So here's why I
am and vote of the contemporary votes.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
Let me clarify and clean that up a little bit.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
Specifically when it comes to the two guys we're talking about,
Roger Clemens and also Barry Bond. I was a grown up.
I was a grown up Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens.
Hear me out, Ron, Let me offer this this perspective.
I'm sick. I know the reason why, specifically for these two,
and we've all talked about it before, well before I
(10:31):
was on the show. I'm sure you and Brew even
before Brew, I'm sure you talked about it. Those two
guys pre the idea and the timeline of steroids, those
half of those careers were eligible for the Hall of.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
Fame and getting an again in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I'm not gonna stop. Yeah, right, and I want to
be on the record. I voted for them, both of
them for the entire ten years.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Okay, so I get your point. But to me, now,
once you went through the gauntlet, didn't get in last year,
whatever the year was they wanted to co temporary, didn't
get in again with that two years ago.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
I'll tell you why, though you are right with going
in through the back door. Dang it, now I forgot
who screwed me last night? Alex? Could you stop?
Speaker 6 (11:20):
This is I'm trying to have a serious Monty. I'm
trying to be an adult, have an amazing point of
listen to these perspectives. I was about to drop MYNTT.
I've ruined it. I'm gonna come over to kick that monitor. Now,
let me offer you this, Rob, if we can somehow
bring it back, You and I and Rob g Monty.
Everybody watched MLB postseason and who had it the postseason? Fox?
(11:42):
Fox had it right. Who's sitting on that panel David
Ortiz who in two thousand and three, his name was
on the list we all love Big Poppy. I said
to you, he's the Charles Barkley of the broadcast. It
wouldn't be the same without them. He sits up there now.
(12:04):
The last couple of years, who sits up there Alex Rodriguez,
the same guy who got busted and called twice correct
me if I'm wrong. And now with that, and also
I think the admission and more of the understanding that
baseball knew in nineteen ninety three, the FBI came to
Bud Ceiling and said, hey, your guy. You got a guy,
(12:26):
Marko Brier who has been on using steroids. They said,
la la la la, la la la la. Fast forward
a handful of years, you get the summer that saved
baseball in nineteen ninety eight, which it did him and
saved again. My point is, I think what you're seeing
Rob specifically with these two is guys saying, you know what,
the more we get away from it, the more the
(12:46):
smoke clears. We realized it was some bs going on
in MLB. They were complicit, They knew. They didn't even
have no implement implementation of testing until two thousand and two,
when they knew for a decade because the FBI came to.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Him because it wasn't illegal, because it wasn't illegally back.
Speaker 6 (13:01):
On their list because they know, hey, guys are hitting
thirty home runs who normally wouldn't forty home runs are
normally it's looking making the sport look great.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
We know guys are doing it. We're turning a blind eye.
Speaker 6 (13:11):
So for baseball and its writers to then go, well,
I'm not going to put you in the Hall of Fame.
Barry Bonce, who was amazing brieforce steroids, amazing during possibly steroids,
and Mark McGuire and Roger Clemens, all these guys, I
think people are starting to realize how hypocritical it is,
and they're starting to realize we need to all just
admit that was an air about a twenty year air,
give take, but we're gonna all get past it. And
(13:32):
these are two guys if anybody was to get in,
Roger Clemens and barrybonx A. But I think that's why
you're starting to here's a pushback on your yeah, because
the sixteen people are not the writers.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
They're former players in former Hall of famers who are
the ones who did not put those guys in when
the time came.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Do you see what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
But I'm telling you, I think it's an overall ethos,
a change of mind.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
But it's some of those Hall of Famous who are
the ones who voted against them.
Speaker 6 (14:04):
But I'm saying public opinions start to change, and I
think public's opinions starting to change. You know what, I'm
not saying, I want my kids to go out here
and you steroids play baseball. But if it was a
whole era where you got some former players mark Mark
jose Canseco saying it was as prevalent as coffee. You
got so many guys saying I'd say about forty fifty percent,
(14:25):
other saying thirty percent. You know, it all varies that
many guys were using. I think you almost have to
just wipe your hands clean. Either nobody gets in or
you just start to say, like, I gotta just look
at the numbers, and then I'm gonna put a whole
asterisk and say from twenty twenty five years whatever you
want to put it, baseball as a cloud. It was
a stair, a post, you know, the steroid air.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
And admit it.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
It's okay, we all love the sport. Ratings were through
the roof. It's okay, just admit it. This is what
it was. We were complicit us as an MLB. We
turned the blind eye. Gods took advantage of it. It
is what it is. And I think more people are
starting to become okay with that because they realize that's
just what it was. And I'm not gonna leave these
two guys up. So now you're gonna have most home
(15:05):
runs ever, not in Pete Rose, not in well, Pete
Rose is a different I'm just saying, so you keep
having these guys and one of the greatest pictures seven
Cy Younger with Roger Clemens not.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
In eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Would you have a problem with Barry Bonds and Roger
Clemens getting into the Hall of Fame through the back door?

Speaker 9 (18:40):

Speaker 1 (19:06):
Thank you, trunk of don no doubt Trent and what
gita you're in the couple of Fox Sports Radio?
Speaker 4 (19:11):
What's up? Trent?
Speaker 8 (19:13):
Well, what's up?
Speaker 9 (19:13):
Man?
Speaker 10 (19:13):
Just thresh out the county clinks man. Been listening to
you in the jail, man.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
It was got me through.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Hey we going back?
Speaker 6 (19:23):
Right?
Speaker 4 (19:23):
We ain't going back?
Speaker 10 (19:25):
No, no, no, we ain't going back. I'm fighting this,
fighting this case. But it was from May of twenty man.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
They walked it and then they brought it back up
on me. A couple of years ago. I don't even
know well, but I want you to know.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Do not trade our show for a pack of smokes. Okay,
don't do that.
Speaker 10 (19:40):
Never never that, never that. But no, Hey, these guys,
I think I think the players that are getting this
correction for him, or if they do get this correction
for him, I think they're going to be the ones
that are more more reluctant.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
To embrace it, man, because it's kind of cheap, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 10 (19:56):
I'd be like, it's kind of like, you know, yeah,
y'all doing me, and now he bought me all these years?
Speaker 4 (20:02):
You want me in now and now I get that.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I get that point, like like the idea that how
come I didn't get in, you know what I mean?
With the writers and with the way that most people
get in, there's got to be a secondary committee.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
Want to get in.
Speaker 6 (20:15):
I feel you, Trent, thank you for the call, brother,
But they want to get in. They gotta be crying.
You're gonna see Barry buff Bonds trying. I mean, Harris
in Columbus, Ohio. You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 8 (20:26):
What's up, hey, how you doing?
Speaker 7 (20:28):
Man?
Speaker 8 (20:28):
I really enjoy you guys show man than.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Thank you, hey man.
Speaker 8 (20:33):
You know, I want to say this man, because you know,
it's too much politicans involved and everything. And it really
bothers me with the fact that I read an article
about Rick Riley it was years ago, and how he
was talking about how prickly Barry Bonds was and he
told me he was. I mean, he didn't kill me,
but hero he said that he was on the voting committee,
you know. And I'm like, Dave pumped the test one time.
(20:53):
But nobody never brings that up though, you know, but
they love big copy.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
The heart me bring it up.
Speaker 8 (20:58):
Yeah, no, media, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (21:00):
That's the part of that.
Speaker 8 (21:01):
Them like with he very Bond he had to have
his own Loune chair and he was I guess he was.
But what did that have to do what he did
on the field.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Nothing.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
But I will say this point, Harris is well taken.
But here's the only thing. That Bonds was a bad
guy to the press. Okay, facts, But and I brought
this up to you a million times. They voted him
m v P seven times. So if they wanted to,
if they wanted to take it out on him and
(21:28):
be like, yo, you ain't really cool with us. You
may give it up making our jobs harder. They could
have done it. They could have done it if they
really wanted to, and they didn't do it. So that's
the only part. Give him write his credit.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Yeah you know what I mean, Like like like that's
I might not like to do. But Dan, he was
about he was about playing the league. Like, how could
you not vote for him?
Speaker 6 (21:49):
All right, appreciate the call. Shout out to all of
you who called in on this again. Greg Arben on

Speaker 6 (22:32):
Greg Ahmant, Fox Sports NFL reporter Greg, what's up man.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
Doing?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Excellent on this Wednesday. I used to love all your music.
Oh that's the Greg Almond man.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
He's tired of that. He's tired of how many times
you heard that?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Yeah, I kind of thought when he passed away, they
would like die down.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
And there's a bunch of Rob Parker's Yes, we're living
a pass can't help it. Uh, let's just go here
with the Indianapolis Colts and the trade, and I thought
they gave up way too much.
Speaker 4 (23:01):
I have a bigger issue with them buying into.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Danny Dimes Daniel Jones and thinking they're going to the
AFC Championship Game.
Speaker 4 (23:10):
Did you like this move or you think there was
too premature?
Speaker 3 (23:13):
I mean I like it from the Aulians standpoint. I
think they have a window where they're better than expected
and you want to have a chance to turn good
into great. I do think there's a decent chance that
these two first round picks they sent to New York
are not that high bottom eight in the round both
years if things go right. I don't really see that
much of a chance of them imploting next year. So
(23:35):
it's one of those where there's not many chances to
get a guy like a Sauce Gardener. So to do that,
I know, two first rounders sounds like a lot, but
it's kind of like one number ten pick is probably
worth more than the two picks they send them if
you look at it that way.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Are you convinced that Daniel Jones has turned a corner
because I look at him and I see him beating
up on bad teams, and then the Rams and Colts
not so much.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
So yeah, I mean.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
Steelers, Yeah right, I mean he just had a five
turnover game, so that definitely I wondered if this was
a little bit of a panicky we need to offset
what if they don't continue to play at a high
level in offense, we got to ramp up the defense.
I think he's done a very good job of being
exactly what he needs to win. Some of that's just
(24:26):
handing the ball off twenty times again to Jonathan Taylor,
you know, but minimizing his mistakes. So when you see
a game like he had this past weekend, it should
be caused for concern. But it's kind of been the
exception to the rules so far.
Speaker 6 (24:37):
All right, let me ask you this, staying with the trades,
the Cowboys making a couple of defensive trades some other
teams that people were saying, you know, you look at
the Lions, who've been injured a lot the last couple
of years. They didn't make trades. A lot of Lion
fans were upset, Hey is it in two years? They
didn't do anything? Two years now not making any moves.
So you got the Cowboys, you made a couple moves.
Teams that didn't. Any other teams that you like. Maybe
(24:58):
you like the Cowboys moves are other teams didn't.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
I didn't really like the Cowboys moves. Cowboys are three
and five and one and they have like a four
percent chance of making the playoffs. So even if you
think of quinnin Williams as a long term asset, I
just think they gave back at least half of what
they got when they gave up Michael Parsons. So you
shed Mike cah Parsons and now they have three twenty
million dollar defensive tackles. And it just it it doesn't
(25:25):
seem like the same people are making this all these decisions.
They don't line up very well in terms of other things.
I thought Seattle did a great job to get Rashid
Shaheed without having to give too much. They're almost overloaded
at receiver. Now that's a really talented group, and I
think they had done well to get five touchdowns out
of Tory Horton, but this had the whole other element.
If you look at Rashid Shaheed a year ago when
(25:46):
he had Clint Kubiak his offensive coordinator, he's getting seventeen
yards of catch, one of the best in the NFL.
This year, new coordinator, worst offense in New Orleans, he's
getting like eleven yards catch. So I think he adds
another deep ball element sales team, and I thought they'd
be added to a strength. So was impressed by that.
Jaguars I thought were a little bit different situation than
(26:07):
they were hurting at receiver. I mean, they're not getting
what they want from from Brian Thomas Junior Trayas Hunder's hurt.
So you know, to get Kobe Myers gives gives Lawrence
to me a reliable, high volume receiver you can throw
ten targets to game at and know you're going to
get seventy yards and the occasional touchdown. That kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
How surprised are you where we are in the NFC
North five two and one couple of five and three
teams including the Bears, and that was a huge win
by Minnesota that saved your season in Detroit. What do
you make of that division? I have the Lions, not
Greg n Olt making the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Wow, that'd be surprising. Yeah, it's that division. You think
about last year best division of football and then goes
oh and three in the playoffs. So it's kind of
like which was the real legit identity of that division?
And again here it is regular season and they're beating
up on everybody. I mean, Chicago looks and it's dead
last out of that division. So I think they're going
to keep beating up on each other is the problem.
So I think where in last year you had whatever
(27:08):
a fifteen win and a fourteen win team in that division,
I think they're going to beat up on each other more.
And I don't think anybody's going to get the one
seed out of that division. So I think it means
Green Bay or Detroit has to go on the road
somewhere else, and that makes it even harder for them
to win in the postseason. But it's impressive there. We're
all four teams in that division are above five hundred
right now they're doing well.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Hey where are you?
Speaker 6 (27:29):
And by the way, I guess Greg alb and Fox
Sports n FAG reporter on with the yacup on a
worship Wednesday, where are you? Big win for the Bills
on the other end, this is just what they do now.
Josh All's now five and oer the regular season against
the Chiefs?
Speaker 4 (27:41):
Where was that game for you? Sit back?
Speaker 6 (27:43):
A setback for the Chiefs or just say they'll still
be fine? And did the Bills right? What might have
been starting to concern people being so Josh Allen relyant.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
No, I think the Bills did a good job there.
And if this is one of those words for Buffalo,
all the regular six season success in the world is
going to have that. Okay, Well, let's wait and see
what they do in January. All Buffalo can do right
now is try to get the best seed they can
try and make sure they're hosting playoff games and not
going to get the city not going you know, Indianapolis.
(28:13):
I don't know, that's a terrible place to play. But
they can control how much of an advantage they have
in the postseason, and that to me goes a long
way towards getting the wins they haven't been able to
get for the Chiefs. I mean, the Chiefs I think
are almost better off kind of being low key, lurking,
hiding people not putting them at number one or number
two in the power rankings and letting them sit around
(28:35):
eight and just be a team that somehow people underestimate,
you know, because.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Why Greg, why shouldn't we Why should we not underestimate
them when they haven't been the team's over five hundred?
Speaker 4 (28:48):
Right? They have four losses.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Yeah, And here's the other thing that last year they
were eleven and oh in one score games.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
This year they're oning four. Like there's some signs there.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
And even last week against the Bills, Patrick Mahomes had
zero touchdowns, Right, And because everybody thought the offense is back,
they're unstoppable because they beat up on three.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Teams, you know, three weeks in a row.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
And I'm just saying, I'm looking at the numbers, there's
some things there that why should they not why should
all four losses be against good teams?
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Shock?
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Right?
Speaker 3 (29:20):
I mean like I saw him in Jacksonville a couple
weeks ago, and they didn't look like the same team
against Jacksonville in terms of letting things get away from them.
So no, I mean, I think everybody's hat to take
a step back, right, and I expected that they're. To me,
they're a little bit like the Patriots tour at the
end with Brady, where so much of all of Kansas
City's success has been them dominating at home in the playoffs,
(29:41):
and they're probably not going to have maybe even any
playoff games at home right now, so it's a different challenge.
I mean, I forget how many. It's like literally one
or two. I mean, Mahomes went to Baltimore in the
AFC Championship Game two years ago. It might be his
only full trough road playoff game they'd had. So they're
gonna have to do something new that they're going to
have to win on the road in the playoffs. And
(30:03):
it's not say they can't do it. I don't think
we've seen them playing clicking on all cylinders. I think
the offensive pieces have been missing. They've had injuries, they've
dealt with offensive line, they lose a tackle for a month,
So I think they're still finding themselves. Obviously the pieces
are there, just you don't know how much they've I mean,
they've lost some key people on defense just through normal attrition,
(30:25):
and I don't know, we don't know some of the
new faces as well. But I think it's completely understandable
to question. I think, what are they five and three
right now? Is that it? Yeah, like I said, five
and four is one mistake, unexpected loss away from being
on the outside looking in, you know, like in the
A if they were in the NSC right now, they
(30:46):
wouldn't be in right now. So, like I said, I think,
is it a cause for concern? I didn't think the
Chiefs were going to be a thirteen win team this year.
I just thought they'd be a wild card playoff team.
And you don't really want to face Patrick Mahomes in
the playoffs, even if it's at your place and you
feel like you have the better team.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
The only thing I worry about is what Andy Reid's
going to order from that menu On the side lead,
I was like, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
Feel like Andy Reid in the regular season is using
you know, of his playbook and the creativity. I think
he's saving his best stuff for January, you know, Greg, and.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
He really meant actual the menu. You're over here, Greg,
you're over here. Making sense, being smart, being rational. No,
he's actually just saying that big flam, that big placu
or not a metaphor. He's actually saying, he thinks, Greg,
thank you so much. Man appreciate it. Greg All may
give him a follow on X. All right, One's got

Speaker 6 (32:54):
Hear me out, all right? So we talked about it
before yesterday. Shout out to you and Carrie Carrie rose
Field in for you boy. Because I was at jury
duty and I did not get selected.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
Was there about one hundred hundred and fifty people here?
Speaker 7 (33:06):
Ye?
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Hear ye?
Speaker 6 (33:06):
Hit me with the law and ordered bomooom and h
Was there about one hundred and fifty people and essentially
a hundred monty had to go off and go actually
see if they're gonna get selected in front of a judge,
in front of the lawyers. And they would come back,
some with numbers, some didn't get, you know, selected. Then
you had the rest of us who stick around. We
were what they called extras. If they needed more in
the pool, that was us. So I sat around, Rob.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
I would have been there and it would have been
like extra extra extra.
Speaker 6 (33:33):
Therefore, nine hours, nine hours, seven thirty almost fourth throw
whatever it was, and they.
Speaker 4 (33:40):
Do this is punishment. It's just punishment, punishment.
Speaker 6 (33:43):
So my question to you all the ones got to
go is while I was there and while everyone else
was there, I started to notice things.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
How does one kill nine hours? Oh it's easy. If
I was that ass I'm not done, do you.
Speaker 6 (33:56):
I saw several people they were prepared, rob they read
a book. Several people played games on their phone. You
can see him playing Tetris, Solitaire, some other games, candy
crumbs whatever.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
I could see that.
Speaker 6 (34:08):
Some people walked around because they had a nice little terrorists.
You could walk around, make phone calls and knock out
some calls, whether it be work or just friends or family.
Some people knocked out, drooling, took naps, and lastly some
people socialized and it was like a little click of
them have fun talking. And I'm not saying they didn't
do little variations of other things for nine hours.
Speaker 4 (34:27):
You might as well try to pick up somebody. There
was a little bit of that going on there.
Speaker 7 (34:31):
You know.
Speaker 4 (34:31):
It was a couple ladies up in there. I to
see some dudes, U click it. That's how you started
the conversation round. I thought that was killed stall him
out on the worship Wednesday.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
All right, So my question to you is one's gotta
go read a book, games and not I'm not saying
you can go on social apps. Has to be games,
so solitary, tetris, all these kind of things, phone calls,
nap or just socializing.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
Which one would you not do to kill nine hours?
Speaker 1 (34:54):
Well, first, I'd say I would have been making out
with Della Street.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Remember she was the secretary of on Harry Mason. I'm
about to throw you on the streets. Don't nobody remember
I remember Dela Reice, Della Street. I know Dela Reice. Alright,
go ahead to anybody.
Speaker 11 (35:11):
All right, this is easy for me because I am
not sleeping in public, So I don't care if i'm
I'm not going to sleep in public. I can barely
sleep on my own time by myself.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
You're not a plain sleeper.
Speaker 11 (35:21):
I'm not a plain sleeper.
Speaker 4 (35:22):
