Speaker 1 (01:41):
It's a podcast.

Speaker 4 (01:42):
Come twenty five.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Whistles, twine win everybody walk home to the show my
kidness with that whistle, Thank you very much. Another episode
twenty five whistles. We'll talk to Larry Fitzgerald. Coming up
more importantly, we'll talk to read moret Im. That's the star. Yes,
read our old buddy read who that people have demanded
that we talk with the Reid. Okay, so I want

(02:04):
to start with a couple of things, one sports thing,
one not sports thing. Kurt Signette did sign back with Indiana.
He's not gonna go to Pin State. He's not gonna
go to anywhere else about twelve million bucks a year.
So I'm surprised to see him say I thought he
would go. It's not like he has a massive love
for Indiana. He's been there year and a half. But
I think he sees the big ten he can win

(02:24):
there and they're gonna pay him twelve million bucks a year.
Signette is gonna stay and not go to Penn State,
which I found to be interesting.

Speaker 5 (02:30):
Kevin, You, yeah, same, And that number is high. I
was looking that would make him, what the third highest
pace highest paid coach. But yeah, I'm very surprised that
he's staying with them, especially the highest. There's gonna be
some jobs opening.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Let me guess the highest. Okay, I'm gonna guess it's
Kirby Smart yep. Second, do you want to guess again? Yeah,
Caitlin de boor No, where's he fall?

Speaker 5 (02:55):
Seven?

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Mm hmm okay, i'ly to take one more. Guess it's
going to be sec or Big ten. I would think.
I don't think it's going to be Ryan Day. I
don't think it's going to be Dan Lanning. So that's
Ohio State and Oregon. I don't Brian Kelly l s

(03:17):
U noh Dan Lanning?

Speaker 5 (03:20):
No, who is it Brian Day?

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (03:22):
Really?

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yeah? They get in for like a few bucks.

Speaker 5 (03:25):
Yeah, I know, I'm spresident. And then third will really
surprise you. What Lincoln Riley?

Speaker 1 (03:31):
That makes sense. I'd pay a bunch for him to
get out of I mean the money.

Speaker 5 (03:34):
I guess you're like, yeah, it's USC and Lincoln Riley.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
But the winds It's like, yeah, well listen, they may
actually make a run at it this year. They may
actually make the tournament.

Speaker 5 (03:42):
Yeah, big one this week.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Notre Dame. Yeah, where would you rather play? USC or
Notre Dame if you got the play ball in one
of the Oh you say that's easy.

Speaker 5 (03:51):
Notre Dame.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
Oh you've said if you're a Southern cow guy, I
thought he'd say USC as well.

Speaker 5 (03:56):
Yes, No, I grew up. Actually, like I've never liked USC.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
I picked Notre Dame as well because I feel like
it's a bigger deal there. USC. You're one of seven
thousand teams and you're six hundred and thirty eighth on
the list. Because college sports not really not really the
show in Los Angeles or New York or the Northeast.
Like if you're going to go and you know, playing
the Midwest or in the South, the Southeast, that's where

(04:21):
if you're a big man on campus, you're kind of
big man everywhere. Yeah, so I hate the cold, so
I had to factor that in.

Speaker 5 (04:27):
Yeah that's surprised.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yeah, me too. I was surprised too. And when I
picked it up, I was like, right after you picked it, yeah, like,
how about me?

Speaker 3 (04:33):
Who's the favorite in California?

Speaker 5 (04:35):
Like the biggest USC? Yeah, they're like the most Yeah,
the biggest fan base. Yeah yeah, USC UCLA is the
little brother.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
Yeah. What other teams are then?

Speaker 5 (04:47):
For they were they had their little run with Harbaugh
and that was about it. And then there's cal State, Fresido.
State's a. You know, they're an underdog that everyone likes.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Have you seen the car Brothers and their probably cast on.
David and Derek Carr do a podcast together, and I
was watching clips of it. I've not watched the podcast,
I've not listened to the podcast. I've only seen clips.
And Derek Carr is the younger. David Carr was the
one that was drafted. It was a Texan first overall pick.
Were they both the first overall picks?

Speaker 5 (05:18):
No, Derek was second round pick.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
Okay, so uh the older brother is a giant, like
he's so jacked. I remember he was big. I don't
think I even knew what he looked like.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
Good looking dude, like way looking.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Great air, great air. He's got a great air, a model,
massive muscles. He does look like a model.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
And then Derek not so much. Not not a bad
looking dude, but not like.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
You just say that in a way of like you're superior.

Speaker 3 (05:46):
It's just like, dude, David Carr was like her chin
strap off your mouth?

Speaker 1 (05:51):
Yeah, I don't know if it can come down, it'll
come down. You can tell. Somebody's never found on a
helmet before Edie bottom one. Eddie's wearing his Dallas Cowboy helmet.
And it's not like one of those snap points. No, no,
it's snapped, but you can fix it. It doesn't matter. Here.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
There you go, let's do that.

Speaker 5 (06:10):
He's like, is that a choker?

Speaker 1 (06:11):
Now?

Speaker 3 (06:12):
No, dude, I'm what I'm saying is David Carr was
just a good looking dude. And I remember that like
when he started, when he got drafted and then Carr.
I've just always been like, yeah, normal looking dude.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Well check out their podcast at least just to look
at them.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Were they both Fresno?

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Yeah? Yeah yeah, because the older brother is looks like
a professional bodybuilder.

Speaker 5 (06:36):
He still looks like he's like thirty years old.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
He didn't play very long, right, Yeah, I don't know.
I feel him and Matt Chobb just ran together. Oh
that's right, that's fair.

Speaker 5 (06:45):
I think Carr won a super Bowl though, with the
Giants as a backup.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Yah. Does that count? Though? Can you can you claim?

Speaker 5 (06:50):
I mean I think you can.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Claim you were on a super Bowl team. I don't
think you can claim you won a super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
You're on the team, you won the super Bowl.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
You get the team. Yeah we want okay, I was
on the champ. Oh it's tough. I want you know.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
You know you can say I won the super Bowl.

Speaker 5 (07:06):
I won the super Bowl.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
That sounds like a weird thing, though, if you didn't
even play and you say I won the super Bowl
but you're part of yeah we won the super Bowl
that year.

Speaker 5 (07:16):
But like, okay, but if you're a staffer for that
team and they give you a ring, you know win
the super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
No, well you didn't play.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
If you're a backup, I think you can say we
won the super Bowl that year. And I say, I
think you can also say I'm a super Bowl champion.

Speaker 5 (07:28):
There you go.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
But I don't think you can say I won the
super Bowl if you didn't play.

Speaker 5 (07:31):
Oh would you do in the super Bowl?

Speaker 3 (07:33):
Oh, you can say I'm a super Bowl champion. Yeah,
and I feel like that's saying I want the super Bowl.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
No, because you won the super Bowl means you had
something to do with the winning of it.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
Which you didn't because you're just a backup.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
But you were prepared and ready to go and you practiced. Yeah,
scout team, Yeah, I hear you. That's a tough one.
It's weird to hear as a backup that they won
the super Bowl. They're a part of a super Bowl
champion team. Also, this is a dumb role that I
hear nothing about. Like I've already spent too much time
time about it.

Speaker 5 (07:57):
We're still in the cars, by the way.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
For some reason, I was we're doing the show from
my house. We're doing a little later on Thursday than
we normally do because of the Larry Fitzgerald interview that
you're gonna hear, and that was an afternoon thing, so
we're just gonna meet up here and do the show.
And I ordered it smoothie, and I when I got it,
and I went and I grabbed it, and my wife
had some packages on the front porch, and I got
my smoothie, and then I left the packages on the

(08:19):
front porch and I went back inside, which leads me
to the question of I didn't realize I did it,
but I do it a lot. Do you ever look
and see whose package as they are? And if I'm not,
you're just leave them out there even though you're out there. Yep, yeah, cat,
just make sure all the time.

Speaker 5 (08:29):
No, I always grab them, Oh yeah, always, and then
I'll throw them like at the bottom of the stairs
or on the countertop or something.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Yeah. No, I don't even touch them.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
That's mature of you, Kevin. I do the same thing
as you. I'm like, uh no, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Sometimes I will grab mine. If there's four and I
have one, I will reach through, Oh man, get mine,
take it inside and leave the other three out there.
And my wife will go like, hey, there's some packages
on the porch and I'm like, oh, yeah, any of
the mine, No, because I think you already took yours
off and left mine out there. That's funny. You don't

(09:01):
do it that. She well, I even do it with groceries.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
It's crazy, Like my wife will order groceries and I'll
see them and I'll just go to the garage and
act like I didn't see him, just because who wants
to put all groceries away?

Speaker 1 (09:12):
I understand the grocery putting it up thing, but for me,
I have to do nothing except take them from outside
and put them inside the door. I know, like it's
six it. I just have to bend down. I don't
even want to do that if they're not mine. There
are times I'll walk through because we have glass not
on the door but by the sides of the door.
There are times I will walk out. I will bend
all the way down and like get down near it
and not be outside. But look, I've put so much
work into seeing whose packages they are. You could have

(09:33):
gotten that. I could have easily opened the door and
just brought him in. Yeah, but I'll look at me
like Caitlyn. Caitlyn can yeah, not for me? What about
the mail? Do you go get them. Do you get
the mail? We don't see you. We don't get mail here.
Oh no mail, just junk mail. Wow, that's amazing. Business
manager gets all the mail. So who gets rid of
the junk mail? Or is it just it's just allow Well,

(09:53):
so every once in a while. So every once in
while I order something from eBay that are coming the mail.
So that's funny asked, because what will happen is if
something is expected in the mailbox, all go down and
it's just jam packed full of bunch of papers, brochuresop
on all of that. So yes, so that's the answer

(10:13):
to that. Who gets the mail? Us if we've ordered
something like to the house, that's not But everything gets
delivered to the door now for the most part. Yeah Amazon,
even like big stuff postal service. If they can't fit
it in the mailbo, let's drive it up and drop
it in front of the house. Yeah. So I think
ninety five percent of the stuff gets dropped off at
the house. But if there is something and I got
to go down, I know that I got to wait

(10:34):
through a bunch of crap mail to get to the
one thing. And then sometimes I just leave it in there.

Speaker 3 (10:40):
Let me ask you as a question about mail. So,
like my son parks on the street and it's it's
right by the mailbox. He doesn't cover the mailbox because
I've told him, do not cover the mailbox.

Speaker 1 (10:49):
Cover like park in front of it.

Speaker 3 (10:50):
Yeah, like park, park in front of it. But the
mail man, I've been out there when he comes in
and he has to cut the corner and barely get
in front of my son's car to deliver the mail.
And I've hold him, dude, I will tell my son
to move that car if it's a problem.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
He's like, it's not a big deal. Man.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
Sometimes he has to get out of it, get out
of his little truck and deliver the mail. But he's
vocally said, not a big deal, You're good.

Speaker 1 (11:11):
I think it's probably not unless it's raining, and then
that's probably annoying.

Speaker 5 (11:14):
Yeah, but I think it's fine. I mean, you know
how many times he does that today?

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Probably Yeah, but that's so annoying he has to throw
it in a par But.

Speaker 5 (11:20):
I guarantee you he doesn't think about your kid's car ever.
Like he's like just another one, another one.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
I'm sure there are people that cover their mail box
up all the time. So that's probably probably good what
you've told him. Yeah, that you've tried to keep him
out of the way.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
I just feel bad every time I see him do
it a good guy.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah, you just quality human way better than me. I
thought you were gonna say with the groceries that you'll
see the groceries and you only go pick out a
couple of the things.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
You no, I get, like the milk, only.

Speaker 5 (11:47):
You don't have like a you bring them in and
she put him away or anything like that. You just
avoid them all together.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
I avoid him and then and then if she's not home,
she'll call and be like, hey, have the groceries been delivered? Oh,
and then I have to I have to play the
dumb and be like, I don't know, and I'll go check.
Then you have to go get them once I once
that call comes in, I have to get them and
put them away.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
What if you noticed, oh there's something like milk, they
could go bad if I still ignore.

Speaker 3 (12:10):
I played them due. One time I did that, and
she had ground beef in there, and and she was
gone all day and so like you knew it was beef,
I didn't know. I didn't know it was in there
at the time, got it. So when she came home
like hours later and came back, She's like, dang it,
there's ground beef in here. I forgot there's some like
it's it can't be good. And I was like, oh,
I wish I would have known.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
I would have know that was out there.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
I would have gotten it.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Eddie has a funny theory about Harrison Bucker, the kicker
for the Jeeves.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
Oh, you have to agree with me on this. Something's
going on in his personal life. Why because he's missing
he's missing extra points?

Speaker 5 (12:45):
Are you thinking of Justin Tucker here?

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Leading dude, Justin Tucker was one hundred percent until stuff
started going wrong in his personal life.

Speaker 5 (12:55):
Yeah, but don't you feel like like young Hoku, you
think he's got something going on?

Speaker 1 (12:58):
Lead he's had problem, Like what kind of problem, d
w I problems? Really?

Speaker 3 (13:03):
I don't know if that's true or not. Man, I
hope I'm not making that up.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
Yeah, I have not.

Speaker 4 (13:07):
I aware.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
I remember a few years ago he had to miss
some games because of that, and like, gosh, maybe with
someone else, dude, we can look we can look at
ut Okay, but yeah, I mean, come on, like Harrison
Bucker same deal.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
He didn't miss.

Speaker 3 (13:20):
He's missing extra points, not forty yard field goals, fifty
yard field goals, extra points. Okay, but check his phone.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
What if it's just like a toe. What if it's
just something he just injured.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
But they're not saying that, Like if they're injured, they're injured, right,
Like they'll just be like, we'll find another kicker to
replace them. Yeah, what do you find it on?

Speaker 5 (13:40):
Back at Georgia Southern, he got a.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
D wil you guys fifteen? Hey, Ed didn't remembers all
except except when groceries are to be delivered. Do you
remember the kicker at Georgia Southern eleven years ago? But
he does not know when beef is coming to the house?
Is that right, Kevin?

Speaker 5 (13:57):
That's what it said. Jung Oku was arrested for duy
during his college career. I never was just Southern University, dude.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
Do you think you just got lucky? Totally?

Speaker 4 (14:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Right, just confusing.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
But sometimes you hear things and you have no idea
like that you heard it and you just your brain
just remembers it.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
No, I think you were just way wrong. I don't
think you ever even heard that there even a conversation
with him having a d w I at Georgia Southern
in your life you around what year was that? Fifteen?
No way, there's no way.

Speaker 5 (14:26):
A kicker at Georgia Southern.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
But what are the odds though, Like, how many people
do you know have d.

Speaker 5 (14:31):
W I's like not that a lot of my friends.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
I mean, I really I never had one. I know
you have it you don't drink. But I could have
been on sleeping pills a d U I right, right,
right right, like because there was a time where I
was taking sleeping pills a lot, so I could I
could have got pulled over and been like on sleeping pills.
I'm trying to commit you guys that I could have
gotten one. Like I'm so lame that I'm like, no, guys,
I really I could have.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
But you're good.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
You don't, You're good. I don't.

Speaker 5 (14:53):
I had a buddy get a b U I Viking. Really,
no joke. I swear that I would think.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
That would still be a d u I. But I
gues there's no engine.

Speaker 5 (15:01):
Yeah, it has something to do with that, but yeah,
it was like middle of the night, he was going
to his girlfriend's house from a party.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
I thought I thought you could ride a bike while drawn. No, agreed.

Speaker 3 (15:09):
I thought I've seen people were just like I've been drinking,
so I'm just gonna ride the bike.

Speaker 5 (15:13):
We all thought he was joking. He's like, no, seriously,
I think you got like a fine and I'd take
some classes. It wasn't as serious, but he got a
b U.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Y do you need to look that out? That sounds
like he's messing with you. Because if it's like, hey,
don't drive, take my bike instead, right, like that's what
I would do.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
Or we've seen stories where people take their kids a
little like jeep electric jeeps, you know, out to the store.

Speaker 5 (15:34):
Oh, this is boating. Definitely not boating. And they said,
b y, Kevin, that might mean that might be me
making it up, but he definitely got something under the influence.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
See if you can get a UI with something that
is not doesn't have any sort of propulsion because you're
having I'm sorry, that's a big word. What was that
meaning proposed? With the bike, you're having to do it yourself.
It'd be like walking, Yeah, walking, so you're doing it, yes,
just like you're walking drunk. Is there a biking under

(16:06):
the influence? I mean there's that. There's that's different. His
buddy said he was biking. I think was like the
time I learned that they didn't give my dog Bradley
to a farm and they this is like Kevin's about
to learn there was no biking.

Speaker 5 (16:21):
It says, depending on the state in California, Yes, what
is the regards with a misdemeanor for riding a bicycle
under the influence of alcohol or drugs in California?

Speaker 3 (16:29):
And what's it called.

Speaker 5 (16:30):
It's called a CUI classic mix up.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Hey, you learn something new every day most days at least. Yeah,
who's going to coach at Penn State? Kevin make your
pick now? Matt Rule, Eddie the same.

Speaker 3 (16:48):
I saw a clip of him, you know, on a
on the podium being interviewed about it, and he was
very like, he just kept saying, I love Penn Steak.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
Well he started with that. He was like, look, I
went to school there, my wife there, everything, I'm from there.
He's from there, like everything about it. I think if
he didn't say that, people would be like, you're hiding something.
I think that's him eight miling in a bit, like
he's gonna go out and just say everything. So they
can't say it to him, you know, get the reference.

Speaker 5 (17:12):
Vin, No, I'm trying to think eight mile.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
I know that the final scene rapping, Yeah, the final
scene because he knows that.

Speaker 5 (17:21):
They're gonna gotcha, Oh gotcha? What did they talk about?
You know, you shooting yourself? Blah blah, And he's like, yeah, yeah, gotcha, Okay.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Go ahead. So he so he's getting ahead of that.

Speaker 5 (17:29):
Now, I get it.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
He's saying everything that they would say to him first
before they can say it to him, So they don't
have the power to say that to him.

Speaker 5 (17:35):
Got it.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
Like you grew up there, you went to school there,
you met your wife there. There's got to be like
a personal pull to that job. And he's out and
he's like, I'm Matt Rule and I get respect. He's
wrapping it.

Speaker 5 (17:47):
I know everything you got to say against me.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
Uh yeah, I think I'm gonna pick Many Diaz.

Speaker 5 (17:54):
Oh wow?

Speaker 1 (17:55):
Really yeah? So Many Diaz defensive coordinator of Penn State.
Then is it Duke now? Uh, Duke's doing well considering
I think it's Mandy Diaz.

Speaker 5 (18:06):
That he was there before right as a decoordinator.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
Like he knows it. He's winning as I think you
just have to have somebody that was a head coach.
I don't know if it's gonna be like a Joe
Brady type guy, which I was thinking about the Titans job.
It's open. I wouldn't even take that job. No, no, me,
right now, I wouldn't take the job. It's a bad job.
Why in the world would you take a job one

(18:31):
where it feels the personnel decisions have not been great
over the years, there's no stability. Even in times of
super instability, there should always feel like though there's a
there is I would say the ability to have time
in that instable environment to make it stable. I feel
like it's there's not that he was the head coacher

(18:52):
for a year. In some games, you got to give
somebody at least two years.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
What if you're like a small small school college coach,
this is your chance to coach in the NFL.

Speaker 6 (19:02):
Take it.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
The risk of that is if it doesn't work, you're
then seen as a failed head coach because it's probably
not gonna work. I think people are saying Mike McCarthy,
and I think that's perfect.

Speaker 5 (19:13):
Like as a gap coach or sure, whatever. What's the
different with Pete Carroll.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
Well, Pete Carroll's a lot older though, right. But yeah,
but what's the Mike McCarthy. Wherever he goes, they win?

Speaker 3 (19:24):
You want with the Cowboys, we want a little bit.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
Yeah, you just need something stable, like.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
I mean, we want a little bit like I think
a coach like.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
That also isn't going to just cow talent to everything
that every single person in the ownership group is saying,
because they're like, I don't need to If this dog
doesn't work out, who cares? Or if you get somebody
young there, I just don't think it's the best environment.

Speaker 5 (19:49):
To succeed, and Kim Wore needs it.

Speaker 1 (19:51):
So you need someone who isn't worried about success here
making their whole career. Yeah, so that would be like
I think Mike McCarthy would be aweso. They'll probably go
for a splash, or they'll go and just get a
coordinator that has, you know, no experience as a head coach,
and that definitely works sometimes it did in this time.
But I don't think it's his fault.

Speaker 5 (20:09):
And they give him less than two years and blame
it all on him.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
Blame it all on him.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
So man at Belichick would have waited a little bit
it could have been coach of Penn State.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
What. I'm embarrassed for Belichick.

Speaker 5 (20:20):
I don't even like to think about it.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Yeah, I'm embarrassed for him.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
I'm sorry, Kevin, Dude, that's gonna be so hard for you.

Speaker 5 (20:25):
I don't even I legit, don't even I forget he's
coaching all the time. I don't even think about it.
I skipped like social media stuff that has it. I'm like,
I want to know that part of his life.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
I think it's starting to hurt his overall legacy. Really,
I do, do you think in because it's such an
S show in five ten years from now.

Speaker 3 (20:45):
You mean you mean the coaching, Sorry you mean the
coach or like everything in his life S.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
Show the coaching. Yeah, it's such a mess. And then
now it turns out the GM was possibly over in
Saudi raverag trying to raise money.

Speaker 5 (20:58):
Oh I didn't see that.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
Yeah, I came out.

Speaker 3 (21:00):
Today GM of North Carolina.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yeah, like, yeah, we looked that up. Mike Lombardi. Just
google Lombardi Saudi Arabia.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
WHOA, that's true, man.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
I think if this is full disaster and he doesn't
stay another year and doesn't repair this year. I think
then it's Hey, Tom Brady was really the guy as
much as they were equal. He's the greatest coach of
all time. Him and Tom Brady happened to be together.
That was the perfect mix of Brady and Belichick. That's

(21:37):
what created six Super Bowl champ right, Six. Yeah, Brady
wants seven in Tampa. I think if this is a
disaster as it is and he leaves while it's fully
on fire, I think it hurts it just a little.

Speaker 5 (21:49):
Bit, but in like a vacuum going to the first three. Yeah,
when Tom Brady wasn't putting up stupid numbers being the
guy he is at the end of his career, do
you give more credit to Belichick with the defenses? And
he seemed like he had his hands on that a
lot more than he did in the tail end?

Speaker 1 (22:09):
Should say I give him all the credit. I mean
him and Brady they in reality, and I think they
both were very much at different levels parts of the
six championships, right right. But I'm talking about just public opinion,
and also I think when you win three, four, five,
six championships, your ego, your inability to modify all this happens,

(22:34):
and I think that's all hitting him in the face
here at the same time. So he's still a good
at coach. But you know, if you could be a
great coach and there are still people that you feel
maybe are smarter than you, there is a point, probably
for Belichick where he feels like he's for sure the
smartest guy in the room and nobody else knows what
they're talking about because he's done. But that's never true
like that. It's never true where you can't take advice

(22:56):
or you can't learn something from other people. And I
think that could be her him as well. Mike, what
do you see? Yeah, Pablo finds out reported on it
two weeks before the season he would have saud to
Arabia more to come tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
That that's different than I owe money over there.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
Oh yeah, ah.

Speaker 3 (23:13):
You think if Belichick gets out next this after the
season saves his legacy, gets out.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
I think if this is a one year and it
goes away, I think there are three scenarios here. I
think if he stays another year and North Carolina has
a little more stability and they win eight games or something,
I think that's the best case scenario. I think second
best case, there's only three scenarios. So middle scenario is

(23:40):
that he finishes the year and it's like, hey, this
wasn't for me. It was a bad year. It was
a bad year, and so I think his reputation takes
just a hit in the next few years when we're
thinking about him, like overall, I don't think it like
Michael Jordan was still pretty good with Wizards. We forget
that he still averaged twenty five points a game, and

(24:01):
most time we don't think about that because he didn't
spend ten years there. I think if he were to
get fired or leave in the middle of the season,
it hurts some worse than if he finished out a
bad year. Yeah, because he ran from a problem. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (24:14):
I just can't see him doing that either, leaving halfway,
leaving like the middle of the season. I could see
him even even even calling it quits quote unquote. I
guess like leaving knowing that he didn't, I don't know,
do the best job. That'd be hard to just see
him do that.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
I don't know what it means. And I just saw
it before we came on, But Stephen Belichick's wife had
posted an Instagram story and there was a picture of
a moving truck, and I think her her post was
doing this again. Now it could have met het.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
The son he is and coordinatd to the coordinator are
there are both of his sonsching just.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
One I don't know. I know Stephen Belichick because he
took him from Washington. Oh boy, so so no, it
could they could be moving to a new house in
the neighborhood. But all I know is if do you
see it?

Speaker 5 (25:00):
Why would you post that?

Speaker 1 (25:02):
Do you see it? AI is real good, so you
never know.

Speaker 3 (25:07):
Gosh, everything's the eye. Now did you got a triple check?

Speaker 1 (25:09):
But I'm pretty sure that's what I saw. If you
see Stephen Belichick's wife post Instagram story about a moving truck. There,
I saw her before we came on. But that's what's up.

Speaker 5 (25:19):
Yeah, I'm trying to look for the picture.

Speaker 6 (25:21):
But this says that she did do it.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
What's the article say?

Speaker 5 (25:26):
It says photo from Steve Belichick's wife sparks major speculations.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
So I didn't make that up. Good good, good love
that love. All right, let's go and get to the
parlay of the week. Oh the AI though the AI
is crazy. I sent so one of my really good
friends is Brett Eldridge, the singer, And I saw an
AI picture of Kelly Clarkson holding up pregnancy test and
Brett Elder was next to her, and it's obviously it's

(25:51):
it only looks like eighty five percent of both of them.
You can tell it's AI. And it was like, she
just said it, this is what she's pregnant. And I
texted to Brett and I was like, dude, this is
really creepy. Goes dude, I know, he goes like they're
like old people that think this is real because it's
not him. I mean, if you, I know, if you
really look at these you know it's not that. Yes.
And also they have never dated. They did a song

(26:13):
together that's like any artists, like a Christmas song. But
the AI stuff is creepy. I mean I use it
all the time. Don't get me wrong.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
You know what's funny on TikTok right now is everyone
doing Kirby smart though. Everybody clap your hands.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
Time out, time out, time out, time out, time out.

Speaker 3 (26:28):
Yeah, those don't get old.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
Okay, let's get to the Parlay of the Week presented
by DraftKings.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
Okay, I got my phone out, I hear you.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
I'm ready we gotta do.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
Hey, we're due for one, baby, let's go.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
I know the game. How do we feel about Vanderbilt
being a two and a half point favorite against LSU?
That's crazy wild one because LSU is ranked tent Vanderbilt's
ranked seventeenth. YEP. Secondly, and we like Vanderbilt, we like
coach Lee a lot, but it's still Vanderbilt. Yeah, they're

(27:08):
they're at Vandy. The thing is, I don't want to
pick against Vanderbilt, but like that screw. And also it's
almost like they're begging you to bet that. It was
like when Kanci was playing Detroit, We're like, we can't
figure out why kant City is two and a half
point favorite. Turns out all of Detroit's defense was broken.

Speaker 5 (27:26):
Yeah, we're like, what do we not know?

Speaker 1 (27:28):
Okay, I'm taking.

Speaker 3 (27:31):
You're gonna stay on that game or no, I gotta
get off. Okay, I'm on the game that you're gonna
pick Arkansas, let's go.

Speaker 1 (27:36):
I can't pick that one. I just joke it. I
just don't know how about this. That's all three of
us will triangle it up. We'll run, Yeah, we'll run
the old Lakers triangle offense. Here, everybody pick a game.
Do you have the list of games? I have the
list of games. L s U Vanderbilt Vanderbilts to a

(27:59):
half point favorite, Georgia Tech Duke. Georgia Tech is ranked
twelve and Duke is a point and a half favorite.
One man it Diaz. Yeah. I mean, if you were
to win that game, agains the top fifteen team as
he's kind of in the mix. A lot of these
coaches too, because of public opinion. They need to continue

(28:20):
having a good season, even if you know they're a
great coach. They need to continue having a great season
so that fan base doesn't freak out when you hire
them to come and be the head coach.

Speaker 3 (28:27):
Penn State, help me out with this line. Texas Tech
seven and a half over Arizona.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
State at Arizona State. Yeah, and Arizona State's quarterbacks playing.
He is playing, already was playing.

Speaker 5 (28:39):
I know he didn't play last week, so I was wondering,
Texas Tech is good.

Speaker 3 (28:44):
I know, I feel like seven and a half isn't.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
Is that what you're picking? Okay, I'm going I'll go first.
I'm gonna go Oregon minus seventeen and a half at
Rutgers well you know what, that was gonna be my
second one, so I like it. Crap, shouldn't have picked it? No, stop,
stop stop, we're going with it all right. Oregon minus
seventeen and a half at Ruggers, Kevin, I'm.

Gonna take another road team two, the heavy favorite Ohio
State minus twenty four and a half at Wisconsin.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Wisconsin's about to fire their coach. So you know who
they keep talking about being the head coach at Wisconsin,
coach Lipel. Oh really that's another he was like Wisconsin
white Water. Oh yeah, you're right, but like he was
very successful there.

Speaker 5 (29:27):
Yeah, he won like a bunch of champs.

Speaker 1 (29:29):

Speaker 1 (32:48):
We're big DraftKings guys here, dude already at big time,
me too. Okay, So a couple things. Question Number one,
what do you still do every day? That is very
much training like that you did as you were playing.

Speaker 6 (33:02):
I definitely don't train like the physical aspect. I don't train,
you know, nearly as much as I do. I do
enough just to make sure I, you know, stay healthy. Right,
But in terms of like reading and you know, knowledge
acquisition and being intellectually curious, like, that's still the same
as always been. So I would say that's that's pretty similar.
But from a physical perspective, there's no reason to keep

(33:25):
up that kind of pace. Actually not you know a
professional athlete.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
Yeah, I was thinking like bench press, you were talking
a books. See, that's why you're going to go far
in life, not not like like working out, so you
don't you didn't feel the need like I don't know
a lot of my buddies who were ex athletes at
very high levels, it took them a while to kind
of taper down, like you know, they trained every day
and they slowly had to get out. So were you
able to quit and then just go, hey, I don't

(33:49):
need to do it like that anymore, because I'm not
doing it like that anymore.

Speaker 6 (33:53):
Yeah, I mean, I'm not going against you know, sauce
gardeners of the world any longer. I'm not. I don't
need to be training at that level, right. I need
to be able to go out and run routes with
my son, you know, when we're practicing on things, or
be able to go chase the kids around, and you know,
just general fitness.

Speaker 4 (34:10):
You know.

Speaker 6 (34:10):
So a lot of times I travel a lot, you know,
I take the you know, the bands or the TRX,
and I do you know, my workout in the room,
and I do some some intervals in terms of my treadmill.
So I still get on and do like thirty second
sprints at like you know, twelve one or four percent
in incline right and then walk for forty five seconds

(34:30):
and they're doing thirty you know. So I still want
to do some cardiovascular work to get my heart pump
in and make sure I'm in good shape because I'm
still a young guy and I'm forty, you know, two
years old, and so you want to make sure that
you are just taking care of your body man, and
you know, being fit.

Speaker 1 (34:45):
What about the competitive bug? Is there anything that you
do it could bettle? Yeah? What do you do that
keeps you like fired up?

Speaker 6 (34:52):
I played chess a lot, a couple of games a day,
you know, to keep me keep my mental Acuity shirt.
I play a lot of pickleball.

Speaker 4 (35:00):
I like.

Speaker 6 (35:00):
I like pickleball, and particularly I like singles. Very competitive
in golf. So I mean, just because you don't play
ball anymore doesn't mean like the competitive energy and bub
just goes as well. You still want to You want
to beat somebody in something every day, and uh you know,
so I gotta have it.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
I'm a big singles pickle ball player too, because it's
the only time I can ever get like real work.
Like doubles that's fun with your friends, it's good camaraderie.
But like singles, pickleball is like you want to get
a sweat. I actually own part of a professional pickleball team,
which is the Texas Ranchers, So like I'm part of
like pickleball, probably a little a little healthier than than

(35:37):
I should be, a little healthier than I should be.
I've played in tournaments. Have you ever played a tournament?
I have?

Speaker 6 (35:42):
Unfortunately didn't work out well from me. It didn't work
out well for me. I went I played a five
old tournament and I realized I thought I was good.
I'm like a four or five, I would say, but
that that pointy five is a big difference, you know
what I mean, Like especially with those those firefights up
at the next you know, the quality of the serbs,
the third shot drops, you know, like there's a signifficult improvement,

(36:06):
you know, at that level.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
You know.

Speaker 6 (36:07):
But I got a chance to to drill with some
really good players, you know, like I, you know, and
Andrew and uh Andre Dscu. You know who I think
is playing, you know, as good, if not better than
anybody in the world right now. And you know a
lot of really good players, and you know, so it's

(36:28):
been fun to kind of be a part of the
game and see it continue to grow.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
Okay, you said you played a five, Zho that that's
like pro see a little bit. I was like, because
I played a three, I wont a three five tournament
once I want, but it's three five. So I played
a four. I got swallowed. You played in a five,
Like I shouldn't even be talking to you right now
about pickleball.

Speaker 6 (36:47):
No, no, I had no business being out there at
no business being out there. But I wanted to see.
I wanted to kind of just fill the the speed
of the game and the quality of it. And I
realized very quickly that I need to find something else
to do.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
Do you miss Sundays with all the guys you miss
Sundays competing?

Speaker 4 (37:08):
Uh?

Speaker 6 (37:09):
No, I wouldn't say I miss it. And I played
seventeen years professionally, you know, probably all in all thirty years,
like just you know, from Pop Warner, the Little League,
all the way through, you know. So I had a
fabulous run, so many great memories and things I could
look back on and be very proud of, you know,
things we were able to do for the city and

(37:29):
zoanthropic endeavors that we support, similar to what we're doing
here for Trapkings, you know. So like those those things
always kind of like flood my mind with you know,
a lot of positive things that I could take from
my experiences.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
Hey, Larry, when I got a quick story when my
son was young, the doctor was like, he was having
some motor skill issues. And the doctor was like, you
take an occupational therapy, and as parents, we didn't know
what that was, and I was really reluctant towards it,
you know, but when we got to the doctor's office
at a poster review and an article of Fitzgerald how

(38:01):
he struggled with certain things when he was younger, and
he occupational therapy helped him in his career, and honestly,
that really made me open up my eyes to it
and be like, you know what, hey, my son could
be the next Layer Fitzgerald.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
We're doing this.

Speaker 3 (38:15):
Unfortunately he wasn't. But do you what can you say
about that? Because that blew my mind when I read that.

Speaker 6 (38:21):
Man, well, first it's early for your son. Just just
telling me to stick with it, you have. Vision therapy
was something that I did a lot growing up. My
grandfather and my mom's second to oldest sister both optometrists
in the Chicago area. She's still the optometrist. So you know,
all summer like twice a week, you know, for eight
weeks in the summertime, I was doing vision therapy, you know,

(38:43):
murdening quarters, doing all these eye strength and the exercises,
and still to this day, I have twenty ten visions
still to this day. And it definitely helped me track
the ball. When I could see I was playing baseball,
I could ball being thrown. I mean I could I
could see the stitches like my eyes would be able
to slow down at that pace, and so it definitely

(39:03):
helped me improve it definitely helped helps me. Now I
don't have to wear contacts or glasses or anything not yet,
God willing I continue on that path. But yeah, Man's
it was something that really helped me. And it also
helped me academically be able to slow down and help
me learn and read and focus better in the classroom. So,
like all across the border, was very helpful.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
There's a lot made about you being a ball boy
with the Vikings way back in the day. Did you
know at that point that you wanted to be a
pro football player or where were your aspirations athletically at
the time.

Speaker 6 (39:34):
Yeah, I mean I wanted to play, but you know,
when you're twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen years old, man likeliho
that you make and it is so slim, right, But
I knew that if I applied some of the same
discipline that I saw John Random, Chris Carter and Chris
Dolman and Random McDaniel, Random Mass, all these guys do

(39:54):
every single day, that it will give me a better
chance to actually have an opportunity to do it right.
It's no guarantees, but it was just a mentality to
focus the intensity the way they did their job. Every
day was like, gosh, man, this is special what I'm watching.
And I was able to realize that and I started
implementing it to what I was doing, and I just

(40:16):
started taking off. But obviously I had a love and
a passion to get better and compete, and I think,
you know, this is the mixture of it. You know,
was really helpful.

Speaker 1 (40:25):
You left college early. How hard was that to get approved?
You have a very famous situation.

Speaker 6 (40:31):
Yeah, so I came out with Murray's Clarett and Mike Williams,
who both for sophomores, and I was a sophomore as well.
The only thing that was different is that I had
one to a prep school for a year, So my
original graduating class was graduating in two thousand and one.
I ended up going to a military school for a

(40:53):
prep year, which took me out, and I ended up
graduating two thousand and two. But technically my original graduating
class two thousand and one, so two thousand and four
a year would have given me technically three years removed
from my graduating class. So we presented that quietly to
an NFL legal, like I didn't want to go and
like you don't want to go? Toe to toe chest

(41:13):
to chess with the National Footbay. That's a that's not
what you want. And so we kind of went back
challenge to see if they would be okay with that explanation,
and they got back to it, said that was fine.
And so I was able to do that, and I
try to battle, you know, to fight my way in.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
Your hands obviously a plus. Were they always great as
a receiver or was that something you also had to
train to do.

Speaker 6 (41:35):
Yeah, I think even when I was a young kid
in our Cult de Sac, it was like this circle
and I remember snow but the snowplows would come in
and they would push the snope against the walls and
we would have these snowball fights, and you know, I
would throw one up in the air and a guy
would lift and I would throw it. And I could
always like see the one that were coming. I could
catch them, you know, repackage them and thrown back Like

(41:57):
that was like seven years old. I could always catch it.
I just was good at catching a center fielder in baseball.
I could track it off the bat, I can see
where it's going, and so I always had really good hands.
But obviously I worked tirelessly at you know, getting better
and better every single day with the drills that I
would do. But naturally I was just I was good
with the hand eye stuff.

Speaker 1 (42:18):
What was the big change for you when you moved
into the slot?

Speaker 6 (42:20):
Oh, I just think the physicality of it. You know,
you're so much closer to the ball, so you're closer
to the linebackers and defensive ends and new jobs responsible
for blocking force a lot more frequent. So I think
just the physical nature of it was different. But I
think it made me much more complete player and had
not added that part of my game later later in

(42:41):
my career, you know, I definitely wouldn't have been the
player that I turned out to be.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
Do you have any books you've read more than twice? Oh?

Speaker 6 (42:49):
Yeah, oh yeah, I would say the one that I
read them most I Filling the Alchemists by Papo Con.
I think that really kind of challenge just the way
you think involved. You know, you know what the good
life really looks like, you know, and how you can
attain that by just trying to find inner peace and

(43:09):
happiness every day. And so you know, I've probably read
that book, I don't know, eight nine, ten times.

Speaker 1 (43:16):
Maybe, I think because I've read it a few times
as well. Every time I read it, and again it's
not a long book, but every time I read it,
and it's not a lot of words, I'm able to
find something like a different a different message, a different
narrative that I think possibly I was searching. This is
going to sound way kind of cuckoo, maybe, but I
think for like whatever I was needing at the time,
I've always found it within that book, even though it

(43:39):
is not a book of like five hundred chapters or
one hundred thousand words.

Speaker 6 (43:42):
Yeah, I am. I'm in agreement with that.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
With the Cardinals, you know, we got we got not
winning a bunch of games so far, well, although we did. Hey,
I don't know, how do you feel about the Cardinals
this year? I don't want I don't want to create
a narrative. How do you feel about the Cardinals this year?
You know what I mean?

Speaker 6 (44:00):
It's what I would say about the whole John coach
Gannon regime. Like they are competitive, they're feisty, and I
know they started off too and all and dropped the
last few, but like all these games are competitive, they're
in every single game. You look at what they did,
you know, the tough place against a really good team
in Annapolis. Coach this week, they were in it led

(44:20):
late into the fourth quarter. Like they fight and they compete.
You know, you just want to see them start kind
of getting over the humps. You know, they played pretty
poorly early on against Seattle, falked their way back in.
I was able to get to get the lead. Obviously,
they lost in overtime. But the way they're able to fight,
the way they're able to scratch and they play, is

(44:40):
something that I really admire. Like they got a lot
of fight.

Speaker 1 (44:44):
Is Marvin Harrison Junior somebody that you talk with, there
are a lot of similarities, not just playing receiver for
the Cardinals.

Speaker 6 (44:50):
Yeah, I don't talk to them a lot. You know,
we communicate once in a while.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
No, I don't.

Speaker 6 (44:56):
I'm not one of those guys that tries to befriend
and get close to, you know, the players. You know,
I think this is their time. I have my time
in the sun. It's their time now. If they do
they ever need anything, any advice or anything that I
could do help some you know, in their journey. I'm
always available, but you know you're reaching out and calling
texts and that's not really my jam all right.

Speaker 1 (45:18):
Give you one more question here. So final question, what
is your favorite like clutch catch from you at all
anytime in your career? What's like the one?

Speaker 6 (45:26):
I think a card up fade in the end zone
in the Super Bowl that kind of got us going
in the second half, and so yeah, it was like,
I think that's one of my favorite ones to kind
of get the ball roll. And I think that that
definitely stands up there at one of the top plays.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
Larry, I appreciate it. And again it's the Pinkom campaign.

Speaker 1 (47:47):
Okay, I got a tweet from somebody LV Runner nineteen
seventy five. They say, mister Bobby Bones, I must say
twenty five whistles. My favorite sports podcast been a day
one whistler. I think I speak for the majority of
the other whistlers when I say we're longer do for
a read update. Need to know how his Saint Louis
Chaos is going read. So the people have demanded, well,

(48:07):
we put you back on the show.

Speaker 4 (48:09):
I'm glad I'm back.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
Baby Howl's life.

Speaker 4 (48:12):
I'm happy to be here. It's great. I mean, streets
are still a little crazy out here, living in downtown downtown,
but you know you respect the streets, they respect you
back it's been pretty good, man, it's been pretty good.
What doing podcast work?

Speaker 1 (48:30):
Well?

Speaker 3 (48:30):
So you have a curfew where like you do not
go outside at this time noon?

Speaker 4 (48:35):
Yeah, four pm? Yeah, four pm. Doors are locked. We're inside.
That's just how it rolls out here, man, buddy system,
it goes the whole way.

Speaker 1 (48:46):
Hey man, you have some high ceilings, like I know
you're like supposed to be. You know, we're not making
a lot of money right now. That is a vaulted ceiling,
it is.

Speaker 4 (48:54):
Yeah, it's a little loft style up here. The rocks
do fall frequently though, from the seal. You will be
sitting and you'll just hear rubble falling from the ceiling.
So I don't know if that's a bad sign or not.

Speaker 1 (49:07):
I think so in your living in your living room
or just like outside the.

Speaker 4 (49:11):
Building everywhere, no living room. Uh my night stand in
the bedroom, I'll wake up and my nights stand is
covered in rubble.

Speaker 1 (49:21):
It's an ear or like.

Speaker 4 (49:25):
It's literally dirty.

Speaker 1 (49:27):
Yeah, res you're talking just from God right now. Rubble. Okay,
So you live in downtown Saint Louis. How often do
you actually get out of your apartment or your condo?

Speaker 4 (49:38):
So I take Maddie to the hospital in the morning
at like six am, and then I'll pick her up
right now at six pm. And so other than that,
I will I'll go get some groceries. I've cooked every
night this week, which is crazy because I I don't cook,
and so I've learned to cook. And so it's either
me going to the grocery store or running an errand

(50:01):
or I've picked up skateboarding, so you know, might go
hit a couple of tricks at the park for a minute,
you know, get some exercise. But it's a park that's
way outside of town. You know, I'm not trying to
get killed.

Speaker 1 (50:11):
Because if you don't respect the streets, they don't respect you.
That's right. Hey, So yeah, yeah, you have glasses on.
You look pretty pretty intelligent with your new glasses. There's
a bit of a there's a bit of a story
behind that, that sure is.

Speaker 4 (50:22):
Yeah, So I finally got eye care with being married,
and so I finally could go to the eye doctor,
and I can see it's a miracle. I just never
worried about it at all. And unfortunately they were like,
you need two pairs of glasses, one for work and
one for every day where which was really expensive. Insurance

(50:45):
covered a decent amount of it. But uh, but I
feel like a new man. Man. I could I could
see and now I look like Vigilante from Beastmaker.

Speaker 3 (50:55):
You do look exactly like, well you were blind when
you were here, Like you couldn't see it.

Speaker 4 (51:00):
I had a slight stigmatism, so I could still see
a way, but it just wasn't a stigmatism, got it, Okay,
this is what they called it. Yes, that's what they
got So I can still I could still see, but
it's definitely it's like, it's just good. It's HD. Everything's
HD now man. Colors, colors are popping. I can see
the world. It's beautiful.

Speaker 3 (51:19):
Didn't you didn't you give him money for like insurance?

Speaker 1 (51:21):
Yes, no, he's I was so offended when he first came.
You guys talk about this, Well, no, it's Reid worked
with me for how many years were we together? Five?
Six something like that.

Speaker 4 (51:32):
Five ish, probably five.

Speaker 1 (51:34):
I hired Reid off the streets. I respected it. Yeah, baby,
I hired read from an email like, he just emailed
and was like and I talked to him on zoom
and that eventually I hired him, and then everywhere I
went read went, and when he was like, hey, I
got to move because my wife she's going to finish
med school and wherever she gets put as a doctor,
I got to go there. We were all very sad,
very sad. Yeah, and so I was like, dang, okay,

(51:56):
we'll find a way to keep you on. But like,
I hired him, paid him a full time salary. I thought,
for the level of skill he had at the beginning,
overpaid him a bit. But I also paid him a
salary and then gave him a full stipend for insurance
because I'm not a big company. But I was like, hey,
you can get insurance on your own. Here's this many
thousands of dollars to buy insurance, and.

Speaker 3 (52:17):
You made it clear to him that's gonna if you
want it.

Speaker 1 (52:19):
You're going to use this for insurance. I think he
just bought pork grins or something with it, because all
of a sudden he comes back and he's like, I'm
skateboarding because I don't care if I get hurt. I
got glasses because I couldn't see. I got insurance for
the first time. I'm like, dude, what do you think
all those thousands of dollars were for that. I'm giving
you extra outside of your salary. And he was like,
I don't know, man, read what did you use that
money on?

Speaker 4 (52:38):
Yeah? That went straight to Uber Eats. And I knew,
I just I mean, I knew Maddie was going to
be a doctor, so I'm like, she's gonna have the
best insurance he could possibly get. So why should I
use this money on insurance? I'm not going to get hurt.
You know, I might have a toothache, but freaking screw it.
I can fix it myself. And I don't need to

(53:00):
be able to see because in three or four years,
I'm hopping on her.

Speaker 1 (53:05):
Train, you know, three or four years. Well, yeah, he's out.
He's telling everybody the story about how he finally has insurance.
They're like six of us together. Yes, we flew down.
Reid came here and we met and we flew down
to the Lionel Richie Show. So it was me, Kevin
and Brandon and Reid and Morgan number one and Tom, Like,
there's six of us, and Reid's going on, I finally

(53:26):
have insurance. I finally have insurance. And I'm like, dude,
they think I didn't allow you to go to the doctor,
like take care of him. Yes, like that. I didn't
take care of him at all. It's yes, I was like, guys,
I promise you. I don't think he just knew what
to do with the money.

Speaker 4 (53:40):
No, I for sure just didn't want to use it
for insurance real reasons. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (53:46):
Yeah, what's your happiness level at right now?

Speaker 4 (53:49):
Oh it's at a freaking fifteen on a level ten scale,
you know it's I am the happiest I've ever been
in my entire life. I'm like.

Speaker 3 (53:59):
Years, yeah, yeah, and all of us do you You
weren't there you are here with us.

Speaker 4 (54:03):
No, but I'm still connected with you, guys. If I
wasn't connected with you, guys, I would I would be
just a sad sack of a human.

Speaker 5 (54:10):
That makes Thank god you're not a sad souck.

Speaker 1 (54:12):
He doesn't have any friends up there, yet he's happier
with no friends up there.

Speaker 5 (54:15):
You're the highlight of your day at the grocery store.

Speaker 1 (54:17):
Yes, he has to go to forty five minutes out
of town to skateboard, but he's the happiest he's ever been.

Speaker 5 (54:23):
Carry a pistol on him.

Speaker 4 (54:24):
But I'm just I'm just content with life. Man, I
got a weanie dog. Now, It's like, is that right?

Speaker 3 (54:32):
You didn't have a dog before?

Speaker 1 (54:34):
No?

Speaker 4 (54:34):
No, I didn't have a dog as hers.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
And how she doing? She's doing twelve hour shifts.

Speaker 4 (54:38):
It sounds like, yep, twelve hour shifts. She's had the
last seven days in a row working without a day off,
and so she will work until Monday and she'll get
another day off.

Speaker 1 (54:51):
When do you get to when do you get to
move again?

Speaker 4 (54:54):
In three years?

Speaker 3 (54:55):
And you don't know where?

Speaker 4 (54:58):
I don't know where.

Speaker 1 (54:59):
Can you pick where? Though?

Speaker 4 (55:02):
Sorry as a gnat in here, Yeah, yeah, you can pick.
You can pick after that, because that in three years
she will be finished with the residency. And then it's
just based off of job choice, like if she wants
to get a job at a hospital, start her own clinic,
that sort of thing.

Speaker 1 (55:19):
So how long have you been there in Saint Louis
Since May June July August, September, So two and a
half years you're back in Nashville.

Speaker 3 (55:27):
You're coming back here, right, dude?

Speaker 4 (55:30):
I will try my best. I mean I would love to.
We're going to try to have a kid in the
next year and a half or so, and so I
don't know if it'd be better to be closer to family.
Even if we were closer to family, it's still closer
to Nashville than it is here to Nashville. But I

(55:51):
would love to live in Nashville. I love Nashville.

Speaker 1 (55:54):
We're slowly dropping his happiness level, but reminded me where
he is. I'm so far away from my family. A
couple more questions. This is just a recheck in for
the month. Do you watch any sports at all now
that you're not with us.

Speaker 4 (56:06):
I watch a lot of highlights because I'm still pulling
a lot of clips. Like I saw that the Tesz
Johnson thing. I was like, hey, we know that guy. Yeah,
that's cool, which is super cool because that I didn't
recognize it at first. But as far as actually sitting
down and watching full games, no, not at all whatsoever. No,

(56:26):
not betting yet. It's it's almost legal. It's still not
legal yet.

Speaker 3 (56:29):
We already told you how you can do it though
different ways.

Speaker 1 (56:33):
Drive to the state line.

Speaker 4 (56:34):
Drive over that line. That's fifteen minutes.

Speaker 1 (56:37):
Yeah. Pick six is in Missouri.

Speaker 4 (56:39):
Oh yeah, pick six.

Speaker 3 (56:40):
Yep, you got options, baby.

Speaker 4 (56:42):
That's true. I feel I don't know what my strategy
needs to be though, because now it's like when we
weren't married, I'm like, nobody's looking at my bank account,
nobody knows what I'm spending my money on. But now
it's like I got to be cautious about about that.
So it's like should I should I like go in
it with like, hey, hey give me fifty dollars every

(57:03):
two weeks to bet during like prime top sports.

Speaker 1 (57:06):
Should I do it like that?

Speaker 4 (57:07):
Or how do you guys do it?

Speaker 6 (57:08):
Well?

Speaker 1 (57:08):
I think well, I think we do differently, honestly, but there's.

Speaker 3 (57:11):
No way boys in mine not the same, no way,
very true.

Speaker 1 (57:18):
I don't know what the financial situation is there now,
I mean, are you are you? Or is she more
the breadwinner there?

Speaker 4 (57:25):
Ironically I'm making more money than.

Speaker 1 (57:27):
Her right now because she's in that early let's say
it's called like, is she called an intern even though
she's a doctor? Is that that what that stage is?

Speaker 4 (57:35):
Resident intern?

Speaker 1 (57:36):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (57:37):
Yeah, so she's a first year essentially.

Speaker 1 (57:40):
Still a doctor. But I didn't know that's a weird
thing doctor. So right now, until she's out of that
that part of the doctoral situation, that sounds great, dude, Yeah,
you're making more money than she is right.

Speaker 4 (57:53):
Now, Yes, a wise man feels fantastic.

Speaker 1 (57:57):
Well do you have you put your bank account together?

Speaker 4 (58:00):
Yes? I have. I got a business checking, a business savings,
and then a personal checking, and that's what I use
to move money from the money that I put away
for taxes.

Speaker 1 (58:11):
You don't have to give us.

Speaker 6 (58:13):
It's like a man.

Speaker 1 (58:17):
But I'm saying, though, do you guys share an account? Yes,
we do have a shared account, and so do you
watch the account? But both of you guys watch the account.

Speaker 4 (58:26):
Funny enough, she doesn't even have logins to any of it.

Speaker 1 (58:30):
She's just like, you're setting yourself self up success here?
Actually perfectly, she kind of she does.

Speaker 4 (58:35):
She has no idea whatsoever.

Speaker 3 (58:36):
She trusts him. That's where the problem is.

Speaker 1 (58:39):
Well, she's working twelve hours a day, seven days a
week as a doctor. Like if you need somebody dependable,
you're looking at him right there. That's right, the guy
who had insurance money for five years and spending on
new breats.

Speaker 3 (58:51):
But he has real insurance.

Speaker 4 (58:53):
All right, Well, do the house is clean, man, laundry's done,
food is ready on the table when she gets home.

Speaker 1 (58:59):
Wait, spend good. You're the housewife. You are.

Speaker 4 (59:03):
Right, now I am, I'll take it.

Speaker 3 (59:05):
You're going to stay at home.

Speaker 4 (59:08):
I mean, I'm the daddy homemaker right now.

Speaker 3 (59:10):
Hey, so when she works late, are you kind of
like sitting in the dark with the food that's cold
and you kind of look at her and be.

Speaker 1 (59:15):
Like, well, where you've been you couldn't call, You couldn't call.

Speaker 4 (59:21):
Well, I go pick her up? So I can't do that.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
Oh, okay, you guys just share one car.

Speaker 4 (59:26):
She's got a car, but it's lately we've just been
using my car. Yeah. Why safer, safer, more reliable.

Speaker 1 (59:34):
Oh your car is yeah, my car is.

Speaker 4 (59:37):
Yeah. And the parking garage that she would have to
park in it's like a fifteen minute walk and we
live like it's like a twenty minute walk from our place.
So it just makes sense for me to just drop
her off, all right, pick her up.

Speaker 1 (59:51):
Well, I always wanted to check in and see how
you're doing. Sounds like you're doing pretty good. I got
a question.

Speaker 3 (59:55):
Read, Yeah, you're a trip to Nashville. You got to
hang out with some of your old friends for a
little bit.

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
Like what did you guys do?

Speaker 4 (01:00:04):
So? Uh, well, hanging out consisted of just getting rid
of a bunch of junks that I had at Dawson's
house and we got a U haul and uh that's
about it. Like we we we stayed up and played
some video games that night, drank some drank some bruise.
Felt great. The time before that we went salsa dancing.

(01:00:25):
Oh and by we just him and just me and yeah,
yeah it was fun though, Yeah it was fun. I'll
be up there in a couple of weeks, though. How
much way to be lost around thirty LB's Wow?

Speaker 1 (01:00:41):
A boy job, and what do you credit that to?

Speaker 4 (01:00:45):
Uh? Well, credit to Kevin Klue right there, strength and conditioning,
and Bobby for letting me work out with y'all and
not have to pay.

Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
That's not true, but that's been that's been a while.
You've lost most of this weight since then, since you
moved to Saint.

Speaker 4 (01:00:59):
Louis, Yes, but I well, yeah, pretty much. Actually it
was mainly diet though, like the last four or five
months being in Nashville when I was dieting, and then
uh yeah, and then after moving just lifestyle changes like
eating at five o'clock and not. I still destroy some.

Speaker 1 (01:01:22):
Oreos at night, but what about the beer and I'm.

Speaker 4 (01:01:25):
Not eating talk I'll drink once a week weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:01:30):
When you were here, how much were you drinking?

Speaker 4 (01:01:33):
Oh, I was probably drinking every couple of days. Not
a whole lot, but just like a beer to every
couple of Dayso games in late yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm
still staying up late now though she goes to.

Speaker 1 (01:01:47):
Be you'll show them.

Speaker 4 (01:01:48):
Hey, yeah, she goes to bed at like nine o'clock.
Though I can't do that, so I stay up.

Speaker 1 (01:01:55):
Well, we're a helmet in your house because could be falling.

Speaker 4 (01:02:00):
You never know when the Amazon. I just ordered a helmet,
a skating helmet, so I.

Speaker 1 (01:02:05):
Got one that's for skateboarding.

Speaker 4 (01:02:07):
Actually, it actually just got in today. I need to
go get it. Oh, I can use it sleeping too now.
So I went to the dentist and I got a
mouse guard. So now my teeth are going to be protected.

Speaker 3 (01:02:17):
Well that's because you have insurance now, dude, you didn't
have that before that.

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
It was so good. It's fifteen out of ten.

Speaker 4 (01:02:22):
Fantastic, fantastic. I miss you guys, miss you man.

Speaker 1 (01:02:25):
I talked to you. Somebody there he is all right,
Love you guys. Tiger Woods having a seventh back surgery.
Seventh Yeah, seventh. He's done, right, I mean he was
probably not, but when he had the seniors. But when

(01:02:46):
the car like was crashed into the ravine, we thought
that too. I thought was that before the Master's win.
I was after the masters did he's had so much crap?
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:02:54):
That was during cod I think.

Speaker 3 (01:02:55):
That was the end, dude, that was the end that
that car wreck kind of did.

Speaker 1 (01:02:59):
Did every won them before that?

Speaker 5 (01:03:03):
You're nineteen?

Speaker 1 (01:03:04):
Yeah, I think you won the Lions Club event? Do
you remember? Do you remember the Lions in Austin? We
used to go play, Oh Lions the golf course. Yeah, didn'
you see like a fight in the parking lot where
somebody shot somebody?

Speaker 3 (01:03:16):
Is that you No, that doesn't sound familiar.

Speaker 1 (01:03:18):
We used to play there and it wasn't the greatest
course at the time. It's a UNI and it was old.
It could be now for the record, it might be
the greatest course ever. We don't know. It's time. They struggled.
But they had a big net, like there was a
there was like a beat up road on the side
of it, kind of like a highway, but one they
should have fixed long time ago. And it had a
huge net on the side of it. They would keep
balls from hitting all the cars. That's the kind of

(01:03:40):
place where if you hit a car, they'd pull a
gun on you.

Speaker 3 (01:03:45):
So yeah, that was probably in the middle of town.

Speaker 1 (01:03:46):
Now one more google, Mic, Well, you google Lions Club
Austin gun fight. It seems to me like there was
a and you know somebody that witnessed it. Yeah, not me,
or was like there right when it happened. Heck, I
don't know. Might have been me. It feels like a
lifetime ago. That's not where I flipped the cart right, No,

(01:04:07):
that's a different course it was. Yeah. Do you see anything, Mike.

Speaker 5 (01:04:11):
No, I'm not seeing anything.

Speaker 1 (01:04:12):
Okay, it was a dream you had whatever. Man Tiger
Woods announced he underwent Lombard disc replacement surgery on October tenth.
It's his seventh back surgery in eleven years. I said
it made it for his health. The fifteen time major
champion didn't mention how long the surgery would keep him
off the course. He hasn't played since he's lost in
the P ANDC Championship last year. I haven't played golf
in months. You should play months.

Speaker 5 (01:04:34):
Since you beat Addy.

Speaker 3 (01:04:36):
That can't be the last time you played with Did
you play.

Speaker 1 (01:04:39):
With your father in law? Oh? Yeah, I played like
you did eleven holes. Yeah, yeah, I think that's the
last time maybe, but I think I played with Danae.
Hayes one time after that, but I haven't played in months. Yeah,
you've played.

Speaker 3 (01:04:53):
Played a couple times by myself, but with other people. Yeah,
I went by myself. They team me up with other people.

Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
Do you like that? You don't mind that? You like people?

Speaker 3 (01:05:02):
They got to be good, you know, they got to
be nice people. And for the most part, I get
teamed up with nice people. But I'd rather do The
best case scenario is to show up by myself and
they say, go ahead, by yourself.

Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
I love it. Oh yeah, music, if you're by yourself,
it's the best. So good. What's up this weekend? You
wont the Titans game? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:05:19):
The Patriots game?

Speaker 1 (01:05:20):
Yeah? You're gonna go the Titans game?

Speaker 4 (01:05:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:05:22):
Patriot h Patriots Titans game going. And I'm gonna bring
the little ones guys five months old, no ticket needed, No,
two and under don't need a ticket.

Speaker 1 (01:05:33):
So are you just doing that because you can't find
a babysitter?

Speaker 5 (01:05:35):
No, No, I want to bring them.

Speaker 3 (01:05:37):
They're not gonna know what they're doing.

Speaker 5 (01:05:39):
I don't care that. I want to be like when
they're like ten, I'll be like you guys, first game,
you're five months and you lost the Titans. No, no's Yeah,
I'm pump. My family is in town and we're going.
My dad, brother's sister, and the wife, the two babies.
We're going. It's gonna be awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:05:54):
Oh, Patriots win.

Speaker 5 (01:05:55):
I really hope they do too. Vrabel's return. There's gonna
be some very upset Titans fans.

Speaker 1 (01:06:00):
It's crazy. It's Rabels return and they just fired the
coach I know, like the same week they keep them
since they since they fired Vrabel.

Speaker 5 (01:06:06):
Yeah, the tickets are so cheap. It's great they're.

Speaker 1 (01:06:09):
Paying you to go. Yeah. Well Cowboys.

Speaker 3 (01:06:14):
Cowboys play Washington in Dallas, three o'clock.

Speaker 1 (01:06:17):
Game. Should be a good game.

Speaker 3 (01:06:19):
I mean those are the ones that we might you know,
we might surprise you and win.

Speaker 1 (01:06:22):
Like see Arkansas plays Texas A and M on Saturday
at two thirty. I don't know, I feel pretty good
about it. Yeah, you're feeling good. I feel pretty good
about it. At its Arkansas again. This is this is
the first year that we've not played at Jerry's world.
Oh that's right. Stupid years We played there and it

(01:06:42):
was cool for like the first two years. But yeah,
now we're going home normal. So excited about that.

Speaker 3 (01:06:48):
I don't know it might go. I don't know. Oh oh, okay, see,
I didn't know what we were talking about.

Speaker 1 (01:06:53):
I thought it was going to go last week. It's
a little further to go to Fabel, obviously than it
is to drive down the road. We've had this conversation
a lot, and I'm glad I didn't because we got whooped, correct, Tennessee.
I'm glad I didn't right down the road because we lost,
and then I lost after that with the Cubs. That's
a very bad day. Maybe they're just waiting for me
to come to win. That's what it is.

Speaker 5 (01:07:14):
This is the one.

Speaker 1 (01:07:15):
It's gonna depend how my wife feels.

Speaker 5 (01:07:17):
Hypothetically speaking, if would you on the field or.

Speaker 3 (01:07:20):
No, you would visit down the field right a little bit.

Speaker 1 (01:07:24):
So it's a complicated situation.

Speaker 3 (01:07:29):
What do you want to know if you're going down
to the field to watch some of the game, right,
that's the question, right, Kevin.

Speaker 5 (01:07:36):
Yeah, And then I thought about field storm. But then
your wife's in their mind you wouldn't even be.

Speaker 1 (01:07:40):
She might not even go to the game. She could
go with me over there and then not go to
the game. I doubt she'd want to go to the game.
If we went, she'd want to she'd probably go over there.
But our in law, our like DJ as a coach
at Arkansas Softball. I would imagine if we do go
and she's had no interest in going. I've not even
told her I wanted to go, that she'd just go
to his house.

Speaker 5 (01:08:01):
Okay during the game, Well, yeah, you guys, yeah, and
DJ go.

Speaker 1 (01:08:06):
Sure, Okay, I mean DJ probably is like bringing recruits
in and stuff, so I have enough people there. Could
I go on the field? Yes? Do I like go
on the field sometimes? Yes? A lot of times I'll
just sit up in a suite and watch a game,
and that's cool too. But for a year and a half,

(01:08:26):
I've not been vocally supportive of the football leadership. Now
they did fire the coach, but I've not been I
was one of the first like normals to be Hey,
I don't think this is working to the point where
I have another friend who's on a staff, is a
staff member on one of the coaching staff. That's all
I'll say it's not DJ one of the staff to

(01:08:48):
be like, hey, are you like anti the football team?
And so I think me being honest as a fan
has rubbed some people the wrong way in the athletic department.
And you've never been anti. I'm anti nothing. I'm literally
I'm a pro win. I just want to win.

Speaker 5 (01:09:07):
You're like a you're a real fan, but you have
this platform.

Speaker 1 (01:09:10):
I have a big platform, so it makes it awkward. Yeah,
so I don't know. But it's also weird too because
I donate a bunch of money and they don't. They're
not really that nice to me anymore as I'm donating money.
But there's no way but I'm not donating money to
be nice. So I would have stop donated money. Right
If it was about them being nice to me, I
would have stopped donating. You're donating to win, baby, Yeah,

(01:09:31):
not winning exactly. Well, yeah, that's a whole different story.
But yes, yeah, so I don't know the answer to that.
I got like my guy over there is Quinn Quinn
Grovey who put quarterback at Arkansas, takes care of me.
I don't even want I don't want season tickets because
I don't go enough every weekend, just like I think
I'm gonna go and I don't go, and that'd be
a kind of a waste.

Speaker 3 (01:09:49):
Then you gotta get ready.

Speaker 1 (01:09:50):
So Quin's awesome. And even if I was going tones
see he was like, hey, let's go before you get
let's hang out before you get here. So love him.
But like, there's people there that aren't that warm to
me because I have not been extremely state media, and
that's a bit what they want. They want state media,

(01:10:11):
meaning they want the media to reflect only positively about
the organization. So you are real media. I'm just an
idiot fan, that's all it is.

Speaker 3 (01:10:23):
But there's no way, like if you guys sat in
a room or had dinner together, you guys would have
the same beliefs, the same opinions about things, like I
feel like you just like.

Speaker 1 (01:10:34):
That's their job, right, it's their job. Like let's say
that they go, hey, it's not just a had football coach,
it's other people that are related to hiring the coach
that we should also get rid of them. So it's
so it's they probably feel it. So it's an awkward
situation At Arkansas. It is my absolute favorite thing in
the world. I don't root anything. But when when? When
have more of my money?

Speaker 6 (01:10:56):
Here?

Speaker 1 (01:10:56):
Have some more. We'll help have some more.

Speaker 3 (01:10:58):
But I don't know a scale one through ten. How
much do you enjoy being there in person?

Speaker 1 (01:11:03):
Ten? Well, hold on because that's a quick answer. It's ten.
That's my favorite place to be period.

Speaker 5 (01:11:11):
More than do we?

Speaker 1 (01:11:12):
I guess?

Speaker 5 (01:11:12):
Yeah, you're bigger Arkansas. Yeah, if you were okay?

Speaker 1 (01:11:15):
Yeah? Do we suck? Yes? Right now? Seven? Are we
pretty good? If we're pretty good? Or above ten if
we're below average? Seven? But you guys like, yeah, I
wuldn't even say you guys suck.

Speaker 5 (01:11:35):
No, Like there's some bad teams. We lost him and
your quarterback is damn good.

Speaker 1 (01:11:38):
We lost to Memphis at Memphis. We're an SEC team.
But at least it's entertaining games. You're entertaining to watch
till the end.

Speaker 5 (01:11:47):
Yeah, yeah, just leave halfway through the fourth course.

Speaker 1 (01:11:51):
We almost always win. So yeah, I may go. I
need to have to talk about wife to what she
thinks about it. She may just be like, go ahead
and go, I'll see you later. Yeah, that's what's up.
So all right, we're all good. We're good.

Speaker 3 (01:12:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:12:03):
I don't have any headphones. On so Mike's music playing
it is right, yep, all right, Uh, good luck to
the Patriots, thank you, good luck to the Cowboys.

Speaker 6 (01:12:11):
You.

Speaker 1 (01:12:12):
I feel pretty good about this Arkansas game. And I
know Texas A and M's top five team.

Speaker 3 (01:12:15):
Now they're good.

Speaker 1 (01:12:16):
I'm feeling pretty good about it. And Bobby we trust.
And what's weird, DoD I never say that. I know, well,
if you want it to be, it's weird to say
that my own name though, even because you don't really
say your own name ever, that is weird. It's weird.

Speaker 3 (01:12:28):
Yeah, that's like if the Cowboys head coach was Eddie somewhat, yeah,
something to be weird.

Speaker 1 (01:12:33):
So in Bobby we trust, and I hope he performs
Opie wins for the next six or seven games and
he gets the head coaching job. If he doesn't, that's
fine too. Like I don't really have an interest. I
just want to win. So that's where we are. All right,
that's it. We'll see guys Monday of next week. All right,
Thanks to Larry Fitzgerald, Thanks to read most of all.
Oh read, Yeah, got speed read, guys, got rubble fall

(01:12:56):
