Speaker 1 (00:24):
Let's give this.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Ah said and done.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
Drake May MVP candidate gets to the Super Bowl, Sam
Donald wins the Super Bowl. Matthew staffords r MVP, Kayleb Williams,
one of the best you know far comebacks, want to
set the you know, tied for the record with that
most comebacks in the season. All these great things, all
these great guys at the end of the day. For
me from Patrick Mahomes is still the guy when I
think of just games on the line, need to win, reals,
(00:57):
go win this guy, Yeah, just for me and I
just still for the last two years. Yeah, and and
that's that's could be the success of the beginning buys.
Speaker 5 (01:06):
Let me yeah, and I'm gonna jump in after the
last two years statistically right, no Pro Bowls and the injury,
So who are we going now? Look I'm not taking
anything away from Patrick Mahomes's greatness, but after what he's
shown us the last two years, uh two years ago
(01:30):
healthy the whole year. Last year got cut short because
of the injury and coming off the injury, is he
the standard bear r is someone like I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
Matthews Stafford only, But the reason why what hesitated on
Matthew Stafford is singularly just more so.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
With a like he you know, like I'm not Josh Allen.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
If Josh Allen is right there, but I have to
be fair to the point that he just hasn't been
able to get it done. And that's what we got,
and that's what we took Quarterbacks. Quarterbacks and star players
in the NBA. Those are the two guys that we
judge you on pitchers, your team can stink skins, you know,
and you still be here to be the best. You
can never win a ring in baseball and still be that.
(02:15):
There's just a different sport. If you're a quarterback, right
or wrong, it's on you. Who is everybody tired of
right now? Lamar Jackson, they're at the Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Your MVP. You put up great numbers and all these
get over the hump. You gotta get over up. Josh Challen.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, your MVP's and your all that gotta get over
the hump. Matthew Stafford, to his credit, finally got over
the hump. Fell short this year and enough of bad
taste in their mouth because I think they feel that
that Seahawk ring was supposed to be theirs.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
That's how I think Matthew the rams Field well, that's
why they went and did what they did with going
to get Miles.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Absolutely, and McDuffie and they're like, we're about to write
this ship and get right back there. But with that
being said, if you wanted to say, stat Matthew Stafford
because he's the reigning MVP, I'm not mad at that.
Joe Burrow is gonna be interesting this year to see
coming back. He's been injuried the last couple of years,
be beat up the team defensively. They've made some moves,
so it'll be interesting to see. I gotta wait see
And you look at Patrick Mahomes twenty four touchdowns, I
(03:14):
believe it was eleven interceptions. Not a great year on
those numbers. We could have seen the rest of the year.
We would have seen with those total numbers. Be I
just think at this current stage, for me, he's still
the guy. I could be wrong, but I just still believe,
and obviously I believe the way he's structured his deal
over the last handfle of years, taking a little pay cut,
(03:34):
trying to you.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Know, work with the team. He deserves this money.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
When you're comparing other guys like Dak Prescott making sixty,
he's like, well, I know Patrick deserves that. I got
two time MVP, three times super Bowl champ. Why why
can he? Eric b enemy is back. We'll see if
that's gonna be a huge help for them to get
them back running this offense better. They got some more
weapons as well coming into so to me, for him,
this is almost what you were saying, all right, this
(03:59):
is that little Are you really that guy still or
you're just a guy like a good he's a good guy.
Are you in the mix now that pack of everybody?
Or are you still lead dog? To me, this season
is going to be that obviously coming off injury, but
you got some weapons.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
He's gonna be available at now.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
They keep saying, oh he's gonna be I'll give you
a weaker two man maybe if you've means first, missus
the first week, we don't know and he doesn't know
how he's gonna respond coming off that, the injury, the
a c L. So I'm going to uh oof, man,
I'm going to just watch him win.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Bet, I don't know what you do.
Speaker 5 (04:37):
Unbelievable nothing shot and I'm not sure he landed, but
I'm gonna hold I'm gonna reserve my opinion to see
what he looks like coming back off.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Worth the five hundred. Oh yeah, you have to do that. Yeah,
you gotta do that.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
I mean they get they did it ten year, four
fifty before, but when they restructured.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
It over the over the you know the years.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
But yeah, it's you know, this is not as Patrick Mahomes.
But you could not if you thought what we've said,
if you say, hey, last couple of years, maybe that's
who he is now. I don't want to pay that
guy that. No, No, you're gonna live and die with that,
like as long as long as Patrick is there, and
he's gonna be there and vice versa.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
So what else is out there? Right?
Speaker 5 (05:21):
What else is out there in terms of quarterback Patrick Mahomes?
No matter how these last two down years. What I'm
saying is the money, the extension. I'm like, and I
know they're trying to free up some room and stuff
like that, and I get that, but just going off
the last two years statistically, he hasn't been in the
(05:42):
top five.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
That's fair, that's all I'm saying. That's fair.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Well interesting, But somebody who you would say was is
Drake May. And it's like once I once we saw
Drake May face real defenses, You're like, all right, or
maybe I need to pump those brakes. Once we got
in a postseason, they didn't play anybody. Don't forget about
the kid in Denver.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Nicks.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Bo Nicks was Bonnicks. We're having a different conversation. If
Bonnicks doesn't practice his foot, he might be the super bo.
That's what I'm saying. So let's let's there's some young
talent out there that.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
None of those got, none of those.
Speaker 5 (06:18):
I'm still for me And you're right what I'm saying
there coming quarterback phel this year is crowded and we're
going to see early in the season which guys start
to separate themselves from the pack.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
We will, Hey, by the way, just to get you
updated on this game. You got thirty two to nineteen,
Spurs up big with two thirty left in the first quarter.
They're just aggressive. They're on both sides of the court offensively, defensively.
Just scored another bucket thirty four to nineteen. They're just
playing tougher, they're playing more agressive. You see Stephan Castle
moving people out of the way to get to who's
(06:56):
at Alvarado. So they're just out here playing aggressive. Carling
I was back in the game. We'll see it's foul
trouble for him. Keeping an eye on that. But again,
Patrick mahomes first NFL player to get over a half
billion dollars leagues.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Man, money is crazy right now. I believe he's still
worth it.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
I believe he's still to me the guy when I
look at just a guy who I say, hey, man,
that's the guy I need to go get this thing done.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
I still view him that way.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
I could be wrong, but I view it that way,
which is at least an interesting one. I want to
throw at you, and that is sometimes you're the most talented.
Does that mean you're the best. I'll tell you who
I'm talking about. It is the eye couple on a
worship Wednesday. We got Ephim Salam here in for Rob
on this worship Wednesday. We'll break that down in just
(07:44):
a moment Fox Sports Radio. Before that, we gotta te
him about HM drive, Kevin, what's that? When M drive
first came to me, I'll be honest, what's that? I
never heard of it? And I'm being real, were keeping
it real, keeping a buck a buck? I haven't heard
him either, But it started paying attention to my body
what was going on, and I realized it wasn't working
the way.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Shit.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
I feel the same way, man, After forty my energy
just dropped. Weight won't move, it's just sitting there. The
gym stops giving back what you put in. And after
all that working out, trying to figure this out, you
start to.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Think, Man, is it me?
Speaker 5 (08:15):
It's not you. It's testosterone. It declines after forty and
it takes everything with it, all right, So check this out.
M drivers built exactly for what we're talking about.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
So what you do?
Speaker 4 (08:24):
You take two capsules every morning, or you can take
the powder, which is what Alex uses for us. He
makes us these great smoothie Ephrom loves them.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
I love him.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Clinically tested ingredients and support healthy testosterone, energy and metabolism.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
And by the way, we're still waiting on our M
drive drinks. Alex he ain't listening to it. But the
thing about it, this is what really got me. A
scientist named Gary Kiyo built this thing almost twenty years
ago for himself after feeling the same change.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
So we're both working on our health. We're trying to
get right right now. NAM drive is a part of
our routine.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Over a million men have used it, a million in
one that's including me.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
That's a whole bunch of people. Sixty day money guarantee,
money back guarantee. We're in the middle of this and
so far we both agree it is working. It's working.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Wow, the Dodgers are you keeping up with this? Manzi?
They were what were they have? Six one six one
and now now they're down seven to six? Took show?
Hey if forbid?
Speaker 4 (10:28):
And I'm sure he was, you know, they starting to
hit him a little bit. But boy, sometimes I know
these old pictures like can you can you give us
a complete game or something?
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Can you go eight or nine? Like why didn't you
have to be? All right?
Speaker 5 (10:38):
That's enough, you have to come out, take him out
the game. Hurt you've been you hurt us?
Speaker 1 (10:43):
My goodness. All right, we got a lot to update
you on.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
So of course we were talking about the Dodgers big
comeback by the Pirates who the Dodgers had a huge night.
Is a huge night last six one seven three, six
one to seven three?
Speaker 1 (10:56):
What was the score? You son, I'm not doing that.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Oh I was gonna say that sounded like an ephraim
Alum High School Grossburg sixt' seven.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah. Point, I just didn't want to do the six
to seventh. Damn, we don't do that. That's why they
want to do that. That's brainless stuff, all right, forty
one brain rod to twenty two.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
My gosh, the Spurs are a big came out on fire,
making all the shots, defense and player. They got the
technical follow Mitchell Robinson cat cat two early fouls right,
and they look rattle they being the Knicks. Yes, they
look rat and Wimby talking trad you're talking. Oh my goodness,
he's laughing. Wimby is in their head. He is mind
(11:38):
melding them. Yes, change that. It's good.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
He was quick. I was worried for me. Come on.
For over forty years, well button.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Tire Rack's been helping customers find the right tires for how,
for what, for where they drive ship fast and free

options like mobile tire installation tirerack dot com.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
It is the way tire buying should be.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Just to other thoughts on his game before I throw
this this other football story at you.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
I think.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
I think the problem is, and I talked about this
before the game. The Knicks are found themselves in a
situation where they've woken up a team that has something
an unguardable force.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Right.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
It's one thing like, look, Jalen Brunton is great, but
you can guard him as great as he doing a
great job at no one can guard Wemby. Now Wmby
can guard himself and be out of place and not
be aggressive, but no one can guard him. Carl Anthony
Towns has done a great job on him. But what
just happened Wimby's being so aggressive. Karl Anthony Towns picked
(12:44):
up two quick fouls. He couldn't even really play in
the first quarter, and the second foul was an offensive
foul where he hooked and clamped down on Wimby's arm
on a drive that was unnecessary, like that type of stuff.
And this has been the biggest knock for call Anthony
Towns his whole career.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Dumb, early fast. They're reverting back the Knicks.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
If you're a fan of the Knicks, what you don't
like is, and this happens in life when you start
to revert back to the bad ways, right if you
start to change ways and whatever things and for them,
they change their offense. Corleon Towns had been great during
the postseason without the files and now Jay Bronson hero ball,
hey man, Corlinton Town's doing the files.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Boob. They blew it up.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
You're starting to see them revert back to the bad Knicks,
which was the Knicks that had us halfway through the
season kind of being.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Like, what's it going?
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Wow, the Knicks supposed to be better than this. This is supposed
to be the team in the East, you know, bounce
back season for them and struggling right now. Oh for
three for Jalen Brunson, five for seven for thirteen points
for Wimby. So we'll continue to keep you updated on that.
I didn't want to throw this one out you Ephram
So Michaeh. Parsons always check. You know, he's one to
(13:53):
never shy away from some conversations. The NFL had their
social team and they created a whole little controversy when
they post they posted a snippet ahead of their you
know they do the top one hundred players and.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Their show that they do this.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
So they had a teaser and it basically was acting
as if Michael Parsons gave the top spot to Kayleb Williams,
so as a teaser selling it, he came out and said, yeah, man,
I he said, Iceman, he's that man. I can't lie
to love the celebration and everything's super great. I won't
even lie to you. Always want to see people succeed,
regardless of who they play for. I just don't want
to succeed against me. And like I said, I got
something for Iceman for sure. He said, what as Ice,
(14:26):
there's fire and I'm and I'm fire. But point is
he went on to talk about seeing but he didn't
say he's the best. He was just naming how good
he is. And I hope he you know, it's a
division rival exactly. So he kind of walked back. He
said he was a little upset at them for, you know,
insinuating as if he said he's the best, bro. But yeah,
it leads to the larger conversation and with seeing this
to me, you see it in sports with Winby or
(14:48):
if you want to maybe say a Cooper flag for
an example. I think I shout shout out to Drake.
I did, I did, but I was talk about Kayla
Williams this time, not Drake. I believe Caleb Williams. Caleb Williams,
his big arm, all those game winners and a nail polish.
He may actually be the most talented right now, Like
(15:11):
that's not I'm not even mad at that if someone
said he's the more talented, but I don't think that
means the best quite yet. And sometimes you can see
it coming, right like if you see Cooper flag a
couple back to back games a fifty year like, okay,
we see what's coming. Yes, we see he's gonna be
one of those ones in the league for the next
ten twelve years. You see that, And to me, that's
Kayleb Williams right now, Kaylen Williams. You saw how special
(15:31):
he is when he's locked in. But I also saw
plenty of games where he was inaccurate, where he had
some of the worst Well, yes, he had some of
the worst statistics when you're talking about completion percentage, where
you're talking about third down conversion, when you're talking about
off target passes, he was one of some of the
worst in those categories. And also to me, some of
those times that he had to save the day he
and the team put themselves in a position where we
(15:52):
should have had to save the day. To his credit,
he did seven times last year and was able to have,
you know, some amazing finishes.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
Was also kind of weird as great as he was,
and then all those amazing finishers still to.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
This day, to this day, as Deontay wadas Well I said,
they still don't have a four thousand yard passer yet
the Bears including an extra game. This ain't the games
of sixty at seventeen games and he still didn't throw
form four thousand yards. But I think what we see
and why Madden put him on the cover while Michael's
talking about and singing his praises, and why I think
(16:26):
the projection is you see what's coming. I don't think
he's quite there yet. I think Ben Johnson's going to
continue to work on him. I think John's gonna cut
down on some of the bad passes, cut down on
some of the off targets, make him believe in his
progression more. And I think he'll buy that find that
perfect bounce whichween using his legs and athleticism because it's tough.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
It's tough, right you.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
Lamar and Josh some of these guys have to figure
that out, and I think he'll be on his way.
I don't think he's there yet as where like you
would say he's the best the top.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Spot and you know, if with that that hundred ranking.
Speaker 5 (16:57):
The thing that I need to see from Caleb Williams
is the completion percentage to increase. We saw this early
on with Josh Allen. Josh Allen is FROMARRA, was right
around fifty something and then got up to fifty six
the second year. But in that third year he hit
with about seventy two seventy three percent completion percentage and
(17:17):
that's what took him over the top in terms of
being that guy in one of those quarterbacks that you
can be like, oh okay, there's something different here. If
Caleb Williams in his third year and this Ben Johnson
offense can come in and give that level of improvement
in terms of his accuracy, brother, watch out, it's scary.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
It'll be scary that NFC North is going to be
so I hate it. I hate it.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Good luck Detroit, yeah, because that's that you know they
if Detroit's offensive line is that this is the difference
Caleb Williams is special and he can make something happen
right other home run, Okay, the Dodgers show.
Speaker 5 (17:55):
Hey, look at the bat. He threw the bat. Look,
I love bat flips. He threw the bat even know
if that was a backflip.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
No he do that's that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
No, we gotta fight. And by a fight, I mean
I'm sure hey fighting my team, right, Yes, that's what
I meant mint, Yes, Tayler Williams. Last point I was
gonna make. I said this to Rob when you talk
about the NFC North he from Jared Jared Goff this,
I said, this is the last year. And what I
(18:24):
meant by that was if they don't replenish that offensive
line and get back to where they can run and
him be protected so he can be seventy five percent.
Look at oh Sonny looking like I'm cussing everybody on
the locker room we get in the clubhouse. My my
concern is, aside from to Matthew Stafford. But he gets
it out so fast with all those crazy weird throws,
and his defense is good and all that McVeigh system.
(18:46):
There's really no one left like with Jared Goff. He's
the last of the Mohicans. If you want to say, like, oh, yeah,
you're right, Andy Kayler, Williams, bowl Nicks, Drake may Lamar,
Josh San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Why did I blak right now?
Speaker 4 (19:04):
All these guys can move, Josh, Justin Herbert, all these guys.
If you can't move in a different bree it's it's
it's different, it's different. And so Jared Goff, you're that
last sit in the pocket. I need everything to be
perfect guy to Stafford, but the difference with him to me,
he knows that. So he has sighe different angles and
(19:25):
he knows how to get it out. Because Jared Golf
is just he's that last Peyton, Tom Brady, you come in.
Speaker 5 (19:29):
I'm laying Rodgers ain't going nowhere. I don't count him, man.
I'm just thought, don't even count Aaron Rodgers. Why he's
still in the NFL. But you can give what I'm saying.
I was telling Rob, I said, yes, I'm a Liance fan,
but I'm a realist. If that line ain't a one.
But they got a great offensive line, top three, top five.
They struggled last they did because they missed, you know, misattackled.
They can get back to that when they gives and
(19:51):
all the stuff they got.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Okay, but if it's mediocre middle of the pack, because
you can't. You can't do that anymore. You just can't.
Your quarterback has to be dynamic, all right. George Reister
gonna join us. We'll talk some, maybe throw a couple
of these football stories and also the NBA Finals at
him as well. I will give you an update, but
I'm gonna let Manzi do this, because Manzi, this is Manti.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Yeah. You know what the Knicks are acting like right now? Yeah,
Atlanta Hawk, the crev Clippers.
Speaker 6 (20:17):
Such a hater.
Speaker 7 (20:18):
I mean, maybe a little bit like the Clippers, like, yeah,
my god. No, the Knicks look rattled and hose about all.
Literally just grabbed Victor winn Banyama's leg. They reviewed the call.
They didn't upgrade it to a flagrant, but I thought
they could have because he literally just grabbed his leg
in an attempt to stop him from rebounding, and it
ended up being an and one as Daron Fox made
(20:39):
the shot. Wenby did make the and one. Spurs lead
right now forty eight to twenty seven. The Knicks do
look rattled as a team. They are shooting thirty five
percent from the field compared to San Antonio that is
shooting sixty eight percent from the field. They're also shooting
sixty seven percent from beyond the arc. I mean, New
York is only taking six threes and they've made three
of them. But it's definitely like the Spurs don't look
(21:01):
young right now, that's not what they look like. Victor
wan Banyama, he's got fourteen points. When it comes to
New York, Oh, Gianicobi he's got ten points. So it's
early in the second quarter, plenty of game. We'll see
how it ends up.
Speaker 8 (21:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:13):
In Major League Baseball, the Dodgers were up not anymore.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
Tyler Callaghan, with a three run shot on the eighth inning,
gave the Pirates the lead there, up nine to six.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
Bottom of the eighth inning.
Speaker 7 (21:22):
In Pittsburgh, Twins are holding on to a four to
three lead over the Tigers.
Speaker 6 (21:26):
In Detroit, it's the bottom of the fifth.
Speaker 7 (21:28):
Phillies have extended their lead over the Blue Jays in
Toronto seven to one, bottom of the seventh There, Cardinals
lead the Mets in New York eight two top of

this man.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
Guide you on with us. Right now, the knicks are
getting smashed. I don't know if you had a chance
to see it. Right now, they're down fifty nine, yeah,
fifty nine to thirty four. The and it's not just
one of those all we're just hitting everything from the
Spurs in it's that they're defending well, you know, they're
they're aggressive, they're doing everything you would hope they would
do if you're the Spurs.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
What are you making of this game? And just the
last gaming game in almost a half.
Speaker 8 (25:53):
Now, Oh, getting over that.
Speaker 9 (25:58):
That New York Knicks was the most difficult hurdle because they.
Speaker 8 (26:04):
Were playing I mean, they didn't believe that they could lose.
Speaker 9 (26:07):
They're gonna lose from it, like fourteen fifteen games.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Yes, yes, they were like, we're.
Speaker 8 (26:13):
Gonna sell all the way home.
Speaker 9 (26:15):
And now they now everybody gets to have a plan
and they get punched in the face, and now they
have realized that they are mere mortals compared to the
alien and compared to them them young whipp of snappers
who have now who are figuring out how to win
every single second. Because if you don't get the Spurs
(26:37):
this year, Lord have mercy unless they get hurt. Stefan
Castle was sealed. Dylan Harper is gonna be a top
five player. He period Wimby bro This team is built
everything that they thought Okac was gonna be.
Speaker 8 (26:54):
This team is and.
Speaker 9 (26:56):
Wimby's a dog and it is clear like New York
bick Bears have been getting upset. They're like he pushed
Bronson down in the back of his head and all
this stuff. Nobody's retaliating until until today, right, and.
Speaker 8 (27:11):
You had all these analysts.
Speaker 9 (27:12):
If I was on the floor, I would have did
of this. It is clear that everybody in the NBA

if he got the you know.
Speaker 9 (27:23):

Speaker 1 (00:24):
Let's give this.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Ah said and done.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
Drake May MVP candidate gets to the Super Bowl, Sam
Donald wins the Super Bowl. Matthew staffords r MVP, Kayleb Williams,
one of the best you know far comebacks, want to
set the you know, tied for the record with that
most comebacks in the season. All these great things, all
these great guys at the end of the day. For
me from Patrick Mahomes is still the guy when I
think of just games on the line, need to win, reals,
(00:57):
go win this guy, Yeah, just for me and I
just still for the last two years. Yeah, and and
that's that's could be the success of the beginning buys.
Speaker 5 (01:06):
Let me yeah, and I'm gonna jump in after the
last two years statistically right, no Pro Bowls and the injury,
So who are we going now? Look I'm not taking
anything away from Patrick Mahomes's greatness, but after what he's
shown us the last two years, uh two years ago
(01:30):
healthy the whole year. Last year got cut short because
of the injury and coming off the injury, is he
the standard bear r is someone like I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
Matthews Stafford only, But the reason why what hesitated on
Matthew Stafford is singularly just more so.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
With a like he you know, like I'm not Josh Allen.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
If Josh Allen is right there, but I have to
be fair to the point that he just hasn't been
able to get it done. And that's what we got,
and that's what we took Quarterbacks. Quarterbacks and star players
in the NBA. Those are the two guys that we
judge you on pitchers, your team can stink skins, you know,
and you still be here to be the best. You
can never win a ring in baseball and still be that.
(02:15):
There's just a different sport. If you're a quarterback, right
or wrong, it's on you. Who is everybody tired of
right now? Lamar Jackson, they're at the Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Your MVP. You put up great numbers and all these
get over the hump. You gotta get over up. Josh Challen.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, your MVP's and your all that gotta get over
the hump. Matthew Stafford, to his credit, finally got over
the hump. Fell short this year and enough of bad
taste in their mouth because I think they feel that
that Seahawk ring was supposed to be theirs.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
That's how I think Matthew the rams Field well, that's
why they went and did what they did with going
to get Miles.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Absolutely, and McDuffie and they're like, we're about to write
this ship and get right back there. But with that
being said, if you wanted to say, stat Matthew Stafford
because he's the reigning MVP, I'm not mad at that.
Joe Burrow is gonna be interesting this year to see
coming back. He's been injuried the last couple of years,
be beat up the team defensively. They've made some moves,
so it'll be interesting to see. I gotta wait see
And you look at Patrick Mahomes twenty four touchdowns, I
(03:14):
believe it was eleven interceptions. Not a great year on
those numbers. We could have seen the rest of the year.
We would have seen with those total numbers. Be I
just think at this current stage, for me, he's still
the guy. I could be wrong, but I just still believe,
and obviously I believe the way he's structured his deal
over the last handfle of years, taking a little pay cut,
(03:34):
trying to you.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Know, work with the team. He deserves this money.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
When you're comparing other guys like Dak Prescott making sixty,
he's like, well, I know Patrick deserves that. I got
two time MVP, three times super Bowl champ. Why why
can he? Eric b enemy is back. We'll see if
that's gonna be a huge help for them to get
them back running this offense better. They got some more
weapons as well coming into so to me, for him,
this is almost what you were saying, all right, this
(03:59):
is that little Are you really that guy still or
you're just a guy like a good he's a good guy.
Are you in the mix now that pack of everybody?
Or are you still lead dog? To me, this season
is going to be that obviously coming off injury, but
you got some weapons.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
He's gonna be available at now.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
They keep saying, oh he's gonna be I'll give you
a weaker two man maybe if you've means first, missus
the first week, we don't know and he doesn't know
how he's gonna respond coming off that, the injury, the
a c L. So I'm going to uh oof, man,
I'm going to just watch him win.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Bet, I don't know what you do.
Speaker 5 (04:37):
Unbelievable nothing shot and I'm not sure he landed, but
I'm gonna hold I'm gonna reserve my opinion to see
what he looks like coming back off.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Worth the five hundred. Oh yeah, you have to do that. Yeah,
you gotta do that.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
I mean they get they did it ten year, four
fifty before, but when they restructured.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
It over the over the you know the years.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
But yeah, it's you know, this is not as Patrick Mahomes.
But you could not if you thought what we've said,
if you say, hey, last couple of years, maybe that's
who he is now. I don't want to pay that
guy that. No, No, you're gonna live and die with that,
like as long as long as Patrick is there, and
he's gonna be there and vice versa.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
So what else is out there? Right?
Speaker 5 (05:21):
What else is out there in terms of quarterback Patrick Mahomes?
No matter how these last two down years. What I'm
saying is the money, the extension. I'm like, and I
know they're trying to free up some room and stuff
like that, and I get that, but just going off
the last two years statistically, he hasn't been in the
(05:42):
top five.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
That's fair, that's all I'm saying. That's fair.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Well interesting, But somebody who you would say was is
Drake May. And it's like once I once we saw
Drake May face real defenses, You're like, all right, or
maybe I need to pump those brakes. Once we got
in a postseason, they didn't play anybody. Don't forget about
the kid in Denver.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Nicks.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Bo Nicks was Bonnicks. We're having a different conversation. If
Bonnicks doesn't practice his foot, he might be the super bo.
That's what I'm saying. So let's let's there's some young
talent out there that.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
None of those got, none of those.
Speaker 5 (06:18):
I'm still for me And you're right what I'm saying
there coming quarterback phel this year is crowded and we're
going to see early in the season which guys start
to separate themselves from the pack.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
We will, Hey, by the way, just to get you
updated on this game. You got thirty two to nineteen,
Spurs up big with two thirty left in the first quarter.
They're just aggressive. They're on both sides of the court offensively, defensively.
Just scored another bucket thirty four to nineteen. They're just
playing tougher, they're playing more agressive. You see Stephan Castle
moving people out of the way to get to who's
(06:56):
at Alvarado. So they're just out here playing aggressive. Carling
I was back in the game. We'll see it's foul
trouble for him. Keeping an eye on that. But again,
Patrick mahomes first NFL player to get over a half
billion dollars leagues.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Man, money is crazy right now. I believe he's still
worth it.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
I believe he's still to me the guy when I
look at just a guy who I say, hey, man,
that's the guy I need to go get this thing done.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
I still view him that way.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
I could be wrong, but I view it that way,
which is at least an interesting one. I want to
throw at you, and that is sometimes you're the most talented.
Does that mean you're the best. I'll tell you who
I'm talking about. It is the eye couple on a
worship Wednesday. We got Ephim Salam here in for Rob
on this worship Wednesday. We'll break that down in just
(07:44):
a moment Fox Sports Radio. Before that, we gotta te
him about HM drive, Kevin, what's that? When M drive
first came to me, I'll be honest, what's that? I
never heard of it? And I'm being real, were keeping
it real, keeping a buck a buck? I haven't heard
him either, But it started paying attention to my body
what was going on, and I realized it wasn't working
the way.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Shit.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
I feel the same way, man, After forty my energy
just dropped. Weight won't move, it's just sitting there. The
gym stops giving back what you put in. And after
all that working out, trying to figure this out, you
start to.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Think, Man, is it me?
Speaker 5 (08:15):
It's not you. It's testosterone. It declines after forty and
it takes everything with it, all right, So check this out.
M drivers built exactly for what we're talking about.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
So what you do?
Speaker 4 (08:24):
You take two capsules every morning, or you can take
the powder, which is what Alex uses for us. He
makes us these great smoothie Ephrom loves them.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
I love him.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Clinically tested ingredients and support healthy testosterone, energy and metabolism.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
And by the way, we're still waiting on our M
drive drinks. Alex he ain't listening to it. But the
thing about it, this is what really got me. A
scientist named Gary Kiyo built this thing almost twenty years
ago for himself after feeling the same change.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
So we're both working on our health. We're trying to
get right right now. NAM drive is a part of
our routine.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Over a million men have used it, a million in
one that's including me.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
That's a whole bunch of people. Sixty day money guarantee,
money back guarantee. We're in the middle of this and
so far we both agree it is working. It's working.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
What was the score? You son, I'm not doing that.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Oh I was gonna say that sounded like an ephraim
Alum High School Grossburg sixt' seven.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah. Point, I just didn't want to do the six
to seventh. Damn, we don't do that. That's why they
want to do that. That's brainless stuff, all right, forty
one brain rod to twenty two.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
My gosh, the Spurs are a big came out on fire,
making all the shots, defense and player. They got the
technical follow Mitchell Robinson cat cat two early fouls right,

Speaker 4 (11:59):
Just to other thoughts on his game before I throw
this this other football story at you.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
I think.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
I think the problem is, and I talked about this
before the game. The Knicks are found themselves in a
situation where they've woken up a team that has something
an unguardable force.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Right.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
It's one thing like, look, Jalen Brunton is great, but
you can guard him as great as he doing a
great job at no one can guard Wemby. Now Wmby
can guard himself and be out of place and not
be aggressive, but no one can guard him. Carl Anthony
Towns has done a great job on him. But what
just happened Wimby's being so aggressive. Karl Anthony Towns picked
(12:44):
up two quick fouls. He couldn't even really play in
the first quarter, and the second foul was an offensive
foul where he hooked and clamped down on Wimby's arm
on a drive that was unnecessary, like that type of stuff.
And this has been the biggest knock for call Anthony
Towns his whole career.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Dumb, early fast. They're reverting back the Knicks.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
If you're a fan of the Knicks, what you don't
like is, and this happens in life when you start
to revert back to the bad ways, right if you
start to change ways and whatever things and for them,
they change their offense. Corleon Towns had been great during
the postseason without the files and now Jay Bronson hero ball,
hey man, Corlinton Town's doing the files.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Boob. They blew it up.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
You're starting to see them revert back to the bad Knicks,
which was the Knicks that had us halfway through the
season kind of being.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Like, what's it going?
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Wow, the Knicks supposed to be better than this. This is supposed
to be the team in the East, you know, bounce
back season for them and struggling right now. Oh for
three for Jalen Brunson, five for seven for thirteen points
for Wimby. So we'll continue to keep you updated on that.
I didn't want to throw this one out you Ephram
So Michaeh. Parsons always check. You know, he's one to
(13:53):
never shy away from some conversations. The NFL had their
social team and they created a whole little controversy when
they post they posted a snippet ahead of their you
know they do the top one hundred players and.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Their show that they do this.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
So they had a teaser and it basically was acting
as if Michael Parsons gave the top spot to Kayleb Williams,
so as a teaser selling it, he came out and said, yeah, man,
I he said, Iceman, he's that man. I can't lie
to love the celebration and everything's super great. I won't
even lie to you. Always want to see people succeed,
regardless of who they play for. I just don't want
to succeed against me. And like I said, I got
something for Iceman for sure. He said, what as Ice,
(14:26):
there's fire and I'm and I'm fire. But point is
he went on to talk about seeing but he didn't
say he's the best. He was just naming how good
he is. And I hope he you know, it's a
division rival exactly. So he kind of walked back. He
said he was a little upset at them for, you know,
insinuating as if he said he's the best, bro. But yeah,
it leads to the larger conversation and with seeing this
to me, you see it in sports with Winby or
(14:48):
if you want to maybe say a Cooper flag for
an example. I think I shout shout out to Drake.
I did, I did, but I was talk about Kayla
Williams this time, not Drake. I believe Caleb Williams. Caleb Williams,
his big arm, all those game winners and a nail polish.
He may actually be the most talented right now, Like
(15:11):
that's not I'm not even mad at that if someone
said he's the more talented, but I don't think that
means the best quite yet. And sometimes you can see
it coming, right like if you see Cooper flag a
couple back to back games a fifty year like, okay,
we see what's coming. Yes, we see he's gonna be
one of those ones in the league for the next
ten twelve years. You see that, And to me, that's
Kayleb Williams right now, Kaylen Williams. You saw how special
(15:31):
he is when he's locked in. But I also saw
plenty of games where he was inaccurate, where he had
some of the worst Well, yes, he had some of
the worst statistics when you're talking about completion percentage, where
you're talking about third down conversion, when you're talking about
off target passes, he was one of some of the
worst in those categories. And also to me, some of
those times that he had to save the day he
and the team put themselves in a position where we
(15:52):
should have had to save the day. To his credit,
he did seven times last year and was able to have,
you know, some amazing finishes.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
Was also kind of weird as great as he was,
and then all those amazing finishers still to.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
This day, to this day, as Deontay wadas Well I said,
they still don't have a four thousand yard passer yet
the Bears including an extra game. This ain't the games
of sixty at seventeen games and he still didn't throw
form four thousand yards. But I think what we see
and why Madden put him on the cover while Michael's
talking about and singing his praises, and why I think
(16:26):
the projection is you see what's coming. I don't think
he's quite there yet. I think Ben Johnson's going to
continue to work on him. I think John's gonna cut
down on some of the bad passes, cut down on
some of the off targets, make him believe in his
progression more. And I think he'll buy that find that
perfect bounce whichween using his legs and athleticism because it's tough.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
It's tough, right you.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
Lamar and Josh some of these guys have to figure
that out, and I think he'll be on his way.
I don't think he's there yet as where like you
would say he's the best the top.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Spot and you know, if with that that hundred ranking.
Speaker 5 (16:57):
The thing that I need to see from Caleb Williams
is the completion percentage to increase. We saw this early
on with Josh Allen. Josh Allen is FROMARRA, was right
around fifty something and then got up to fifty six
the second year. But in that third year he hit
with about seventy two seventy three percent completion percentage and
(17:17):
that's what took him over the top in terms of
being that guy in one of those quarterbacks that you
can be like, oh okay, there's something different here. If
Caleb Williams in his third year and this Ben Johnson
offense can come in and give that level of improvement
in terms of his accuracy, brother, watch out, it's scary.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
It'll be scary that NFC North is going to be
so I hate it. I hate it.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Good luck Detroit, yeah, because that's that you know they
if Detroit's offensive line is that this is the difference
Caleb Williams is special and he can make something happen
right other home run, Okay, the Dodgers show.
Speaker 5 (17:55):
Hey, look at the bat. He threw the bat. Look,
I love bat flips. He threw the bat even know
if that was a backflip.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
No he do that's that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
No, we gotta fight. And by a fight, I mean
I'm sure hey fighting my team, right, Yes, that's what
I meant mint, Yes, Tayler Williams. Last point I was
gonna make. I said this to Rob when you talk
about the NFC North he from Jared Jared Goff this,
I said, this is the last year. And what I
(18:24):
meant by that was if they don't replenish that offensive
line and get back to where they can run and
him be protected so he can be seventy five percent.
Look at oh Sonny looking like I'm cussing everybody on
the locker room we get in the clubhouse. My my
concern is, aside from to Matthew Stafford. But he gets
it out so fast with all those crazy weird throws,
and his defense is good and all that McVeigh system.
(18:46):
There's really no one left like with Jared Goff. He's
the last of the Mohicans. If you want to say, like, oh, yeah,
you're right, Andy Kayler, Williams, bowl Nicks, Drake may Lamar,
Josh San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Why did I blak right now?
Speaker 4 (19:04):
All these guys can move, Josh, Justin Herbert, all these guys.
If you can't move in a different bree it's it's
it's different, it's different. And so Jared Goff, you're that
last sit in the pocket. I need everything to be
perfect guy to Stafford, but the difference with him to me,
he knows that. So he has sighe different angles and
(19:25):
he knows how to get it out. Because Jared Golf
is just he's that last Peyton, Tom Brady, you come in.
Speaker 5 (19:29):
I'm laying Rodgers ain't going nowhere. I don't count him, man.
I'm just thought, don't even count Aaron Rodgers. Why he's
still in the NFL. But you can give what I'm saying.
I was telling Rob, I said, yes, I'm a Liance fan,
but I'm a realist. If that line ain't a one.
But they got a great offensive line, top three, top five.
They struggled last they did because they missed, you know, misattackled.
They can get back to that when they gives and
(19:51):
all the stuff they got.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Okay, but if it's mediocre middle of the pack, because
you can't. You can't do that anymore. You just can't.
Your quarterback has to be dynamic, all right. George Reister
gonna join us. We'll talk some, maybe throw a couple
of these football stories and also the NBA Finals at
him as well. I will give you an update, but
I'm gonna let Manzi do this, because Manzi, this is Manti.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Yeah. You know what the Knicks are acting like right now? Yeah,
Atlanta Hawk, the crev Clippers.
Speaker 6 (20:17):
Such a hater.
Speaker 7 (20:18):
I mean, maybe a little bit like the Clippers, like, yeah,
my god. No, the Knicks look rattled and hose about all.
Literally just grabbed Victor winn Banyama's leg. They reviewed the call.
They didn't upgrade it to a flagrant, but I thought
they could have because he literally just grabbed his leg
in an attempt to stop him from rebounding, and it
ended up being an and one as Daron Fox made
(20:39):
the shot. Wenby did make the and one. Spurs lead
right now forty eight to twenty seven. The Knicks do
look rattled as a team. They are shooting thirty five
percent from the field compared to San Antonio that is
shooting sixty eight percent from the field. They're also shooting
sixty seven percent from beyond the arc. I mean, New
York is only taking six threes and they've made three
of them. But it's definitely like the Spurs don't look
(21:01):
young right now, that's not what they look like. Victor
wan Banyama, he's got fourteen points. When it comes to
New York, Oh, Gianicobi he's got ten points. So it's
early in the second quarter, plenty of game. We'll see
how it ends up.
Speaker 8 (21:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:13):
In Major League Baseball, the Dodgers were up not anymore.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
Tyler Callaghan, with a three run shot on the eighth inning,
gave the Pirates the lead there, up nine to six.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
Bottom of the eighth inning.
Speaker 7 (21:22):
In Pittsburgh, Twins are holding on to a four to
three lead over the Tigers.
Speaker 6 (21:26):
In Detroit, it's the bottom of the fifth.
Speaker 7 (21:28):
Phillies have extended their lead over the Blue Jays in
Toronto seven to one, bottom of the seventh There, Cardinals
lead the Mets in New York eight two top of
the ninth inning. White Sox on the scoreboard, they lead
the Braves to zero to the top of the seventh
at home, Rangers and the Royals are tied at two.
Speaker 6 (21:42):
Top of the sixth.
Speaker 7 (21:43):
Cubs lead the Rockies in Colorado one zero, top of
the fourth, Brewers over the A's right now to zero,
bottom of the second inning. Jackson holiday with the grand
slam as the Orioles defeat of the Mariners seven too,
while the Marlins blank the Diamondbacks eight zero.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
A couple of the grand slams today. I didn't mention
the one for LA because they're losing right now.
Speaker 7 (21:59):
Ryan hit a Grand Slam, but also for the Giants,
they completed a comeback from Bryce Eldridge, who hit a
Grand Slam.
Speaker 6 (22:06):
They defeated the Nationals eleven ten. That was a walk off.
Speaker 7 (22:09):
In NFL news, Cold Twide receiver Alec Pierce can miss
parts of training camp and maybe more as he continues
to rehab from off season ankle surgery.
Speaker 6 (22:16):
In March. Green Bay Packers tied an Tucker Kraft says
that he's.
Speaker 7 (22:19):

Speaker 6 (23:04):
How did he make that?
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Fifty four to thirty two, spurs up eight fifty left
in the second quarter, I mean on the spurs trying
to go like a buck eighty. My gosh, they're they're
hitting it all like every it's one gas, yeah, every kid,
every shot. Champagnie just hit a three. They're wide open shots.
Speaker 5 (23:20):

and the confidence is through the roof.

getting smashed. I don't know if you had a chance
to see it. Right now, they're down fifty nine, yeah,
fifty nine to thirty four. The and it's not just
one of those all we're just hitting everything from the
Spurs in it's that they're defending well, you know, they're
they're aggressive, they're doing everything you would hope they would
do if you're the Spurs.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
What are you making of this game? And just the
last gaming game in almost a half.
Speaker 8 (25:53):
Now, Oh, getting over that.
Speaker 9 (25:58):
That New York Knicks was the most difficult hurdle because they.
Speaker 8 (26:04):
Were playing I mean, they didn't believe that they could lose.
Speaker 9 (26:07):
They're gonna lose from it, like fourteen fifteen games.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Yes, yes, they were like, we're.
Speaker 8 (26:13):
Gonna sell all the way home.
Speaker 9 (26:15):
