In season tournament. It is done for the Knicks. They
will no longer be advancing. They are out of the
in season tournaments.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Well, they had a really good run Julius Randall was
a first half superstar.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
I mean that was a big deal.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Seeing that stat line floating about the operational efficiency.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
That was you know, I had a multi screen experience.
Can you believe this?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
You had a Julius Randall multi screen experience?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
No, no, no, that's awesome.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
I'm watching the Bucks and Nicks on one screen, and
on the other I was watching a sporting event.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Get it on True TV.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Oh, it was like you were in March already.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
You're in the middle of March.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
United States China, just gone final of friendly two to one,
your final.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
But what was funny is just ahead.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Of the US's second goal to take the lead, which
they've just now blown the whistle final, they spent five
minutes extolling the virtues and greatness of the the Team
China defense, and then they had one of the worst
clearing attempts I've ever seen, failed by three different people.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Before it dribbled back.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Out for the eventual game winners.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Yeah, there was kind of funny.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
It was not a great first half of the United
States at all. Kinds of possession. We'd never both a score. Yeah,
they're losing one nothing, Okay.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Great, that was a great header back in that that
led to the goal. Should have been an off sets
all but you know, hey, they let it go one
nothing at half and eventually they scored two to win
the game. But the whole time it's like, wow, the
Chinese defense playing well, and then the two goals they
gave up two of the worst defensive sequences you will
see at any level of soccer.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
You know, you know, kind of funny. You know.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
One thing I kind of like now is that True TV,
And I feel bad. Well, I don't feel bad for
True TV because obviously they have, you know, that have
more sports now, but that, like True TV was always
like what the hell, man, there's a game on True TV?
And it was for a few years it was WHOA
what an outlier? Now there's games on all kinds of
crazy ass chant. That's it, man, You want to go
watch I want to go watch Syracuse. They're on the CW. What, yes,
(03:04):
they're on the CW.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I want to watch football? What do you got?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Oh, no, go go find instead of SpongeBob, it's SpongeBob
announcing the damn game.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
So I mean, you know, you got all sorts of stuff.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yeah, the game is on Fox. Eleven Big Fox No
no no? Oh Fox Sports one, No, no, no, Fox
Sports two?
Speaker 2 (03:19):
No?
Speaker 1 (03:20):
What Fox Business Channel?
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Look at Fox Business Channel. Okay, let me get that.
I think I have that right here.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
We're missing it.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, the only thing we're missing right now is I
don't think there's been a game on the Hallmark channel yet.
Well it's well, okay, because now, what are you going
to show? A sporting event or a Hallmark Christmas movie?
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Come on?
Speaker 4 (03:36):
They could have everybody in special ceremonial Santa and elf outfit.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
They could. They could tell Hallmark, hey, you guys have
all the NFL games every Sunday in December. They would say, yeah, no,
we can't. We have contracts with Lacy Severt and uh.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Gale O'Grady cook for everything.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yes, look we can't. People expect holiday movies and we
can't put on a football game when people are expecting
someone to move to a town in Vermont get asked
to plan a fall festival and fall in love with
the doctor that they knew in high school that moved
back to the town to take care of his mom.
Can't we can have Eagles forty nine ers when that
is on our docket? Just can't do it.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
It was funny, you know.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Do you see all the ads and you know the
banners that show up on your TV. And they were
advertising that new Eddie Murphy Christmas movie that came out.
I started to watch it. Seven minutes in I had
nine of the bingo cards, lots of a Christmas movie done.
I can't do it, Sorry, Ednie. I love the cast.

(05:00):
involving Show Heyo Tani. Now, depending on what MLB insider
you like or don't like, the Dodgers are either in
the finals for Show Heyo tanikay or they are out
of it completely because earlier today we got reports many
baseball insiders reporting hey show Hey Otani's people really want
(05:20):
to keep his free agency close to the vest. They
don't want anybody to know that he's meeting with people.
Yet we found out yesterday he met with the Blue
Jays and.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
The rect is damn plain like Norad.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, and the Dodgers. Today manager Dave Roberts talked about how, yes,
they met with Otani a few days ago for a
couple of hours. Here's Dave Roberts from earlier today.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
It's a good possibility. I think that, Yeah, we met
with him. You know, I don't want to I'd like
to be honest, and so we met with show Hey
and we talked and I.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Think it went well.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
I think it went well. But at the end of
the day, he's his own man, and he's gonna do
what best for himself where he feels most.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Dave, your MIC's on Dave. So this either was really
good for the Dodgers, because, according to Bob Nightingale, longtime
Baseball insider friend of the show, the Dodgers, Angels, and
Blue Jays are the final three teams for Rotan, So
he's going to the Royals, however, yes, or a mystery team. However,
we also got many reports today from insiders that Hey,
(06:25):
Otani's people team O'tani are very upset. They don't want
anything leaked out as to his free agency plans, and
if that stuff gets leaked out, that is something they
would hold against a team in moving somewhere in free agency.
So the Dodgers either are in the finals and Dave
Roberts had a great meeting and it was awesome, or
(06:46):
the Dodgers were great and Dave Roberts just blew it,
and now Otani's not going to the Dodgers. One of
those things is happening, Mike Carmon.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Yeah, I mean one of the reports, right, I mean
out of the Nightingales. Robert spoke freely and relaxed for
twenty minutes, but his face became as he spent several
moments reading a text masters on his phone. After his session,
he immediately huddled with Dodgers public relations officials. Day So
damn they were waving like they walk over with a taser.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Why did that guy put Dave Roberts in a sleeper hole? Well, listen,
and here's what Otani said to me. Oh, sorry, we
have to take Dave out right now. You're gonna you know, hey,
how about legend Steve Garvey is gonna come up here.
He Come on, Steve, come on up and talk to
everybody here that we talked about him. Talk about your
Senate run, any anything but the Otani meeting. We got
(07:36):
any other Dodger legends here that can come up and talk,
coming and talk for a few minutes.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
You know, it's been a long time since I went
and asked a man for an autograph or anything, you know,
and being in the business we are, I want to
go ask Dave Roberts for his autograph because he's a
man of the people.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
He's like a hero.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
They should build a damn statue out front of Dodgers
Stadium right now, because he just said, screw all the
protocols and the the you know, orders of you know,
be quiet, don't don't you know, blink twice if you've
seen her talk to an Otani official or Otani himself,
if you had an audience he said the quiet part
out loud.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Good for him, you know.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
But here here's and here's the thing. Look, because as
great as Otani is, right, as great as Otani is,
and Buster only talked about hey boy, this free agency
thing with Otani is is is really getting out of control.
And there's these threats and there's all kinds of stuff happening.
I'm like, you know what, why couldn't this have been fun?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Right?
Speaker 1 (08:31):
The show Hey Otani free agency story should have been
an unbelievable time for baseball, right, it should have been,
Oh my god, this is the best player any of
us have ever seen, and he's gonna be a free agent.
And now because hey, we want to keep it. Why
does it matter?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
This is that?
Speaker 1 (08:47):
I mean, I don't understand why it's such a big deal.
We want to keep it secret, who we're meeting with, what.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
It's a right, But it's a circus anyway, right, And
it's not like you're inviting people to stand outside your
house as you're meeting with them, living gated community.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Routs aren't getting on motorcycles following you going there? He is,
go get it? I mean, this should have been.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Why why spark, Spark?
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Why? But I don't understand why this is such a
big deal. It's probably it's one thing. If hey, my
family is being bombarded whenever they see somebody in the mall,
where is show hey going? Like, if it's stuff like
that going on, I get it, But this is just oh,
we don't want people to know who we're meeting with, Like,
what the hell? Man? This should be fun. This should
be a celebration of baseball, and it should be where
is this guy going? Right? This should be the the
(09:34):
the the the free agent tour of of of a
superstar going, Oh my god, he's talking with you. Could
he actually go to the Dodger? This should be on
the Lebron James level for Major League Baseball.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
But instead or Carmelo or all those guys as they
went around city to city that you that.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Was so fun, you said, Garmelo, no, no.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
No, but obviously you had the decision.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
But I'm talking about you know, even even the other
guys from that class, they all went around, they had
their names on the market. They got the whole Blue
Chips treatment with all the announcements and music and everything else.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Make it a festival.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I don't I don't get what this is all about.
And instead it's just a Oh it's secrecy, and we're
gonna find out someone's on a team. Oh, he was
gonna find out the team he chooses, and we're gonna
find it. Oh, maybe he's met at the team because
they let slip that they met he didn't say any details,
Like Dave Roberts said, well, he sat down and he
demanded this kind of money, wanted this kind of thing
on that you're you're going somewhere where you're gonna get
probably six hundred million dollars. It looks like you've convinced
(10:28):
teams to say, hey, he will be okay to pitch
in a couple of years. So six hundred million dollars
is completely on the table for him. For you, Uh okay,
So you're you're getting that. And now suddenly this is
what it is. It's it's this should have been fun.
This should have been a celebration of baseball, and it
should have been something that, boy, hey you're counting down
to show Heyo Tani free agency? Where is he going?
And there should be interviews and there should be all
(10:50):
kinds of fun stuff. And instead it's just okay, it's
under the cover of darkness, and this is what we have. Now.
Everybody's different, and I get that some guys like the publicity,
like this is Aaron Rodgers, Oh my god, he'd be
in a rhinestone coat doing said it would be it
would be incredible, And so I get Otani as kind
of a is a private person wants to do things
(11:11):
a certain way. But this is not like there anybody's
asking for anything. That's not just something that would be
public record. Did you meet with the team or no,
can't we tell you? No, you're a free agent. It's okay,
it's okay if we know there's no there's no uh
tampering happening here. It just it should have been more fun.
And I wish that could have been communicated and that
could have been something that was agreed upon. Hey, it's okay,
(11:31):
because this is great for baseball, and you know, this
would have Matt you know, and imagined Rob Manford stepping
into actually say something like this. But it's just I
feel like, as fans, we were robbed of what could
have been an unbelievable week. And look, I would have
spent a couple of days going, oh, my god, the
Mets could get Otani and then the Mets are out
of the running.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
It's oh, we're out of the running for Otani.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I mean, there could have been that kind of emotion
swings and it could have been great, and instead it's just, yeah,
we're gonna find out because it's all secret.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Oh nothing else we could have gotten public dissemination and
presents of the slide decks here on Major League Baseball Network.
Instead of watching guys vamp and try to make stuff
up and tell you what they had for breakfast, you
could have had all right. Here was the Milwaukee Brewers pitch,
and here's Bernie Brewer coming down the slide to start
(12:16):
it off. I mean, and then team to team, here's
what we can offer as a city, if nothing else,
it's a tourism package for each of these thirty Major
League Baseball teams. Along the way they're thinking the organizational
not that you go too deep into plans, not to
divulge at all, but at least a little bit of
fun in terms of this process. Instead, you got everybody saying,
(12:37):
I don't know, do I have real good authority to
even talk about this, because Otani's people may take out
my communications and I might eliminate my team just by
saying I looked at him.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
It's just a badge place for Major League Baseball.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
I mean, there's just so many guys that move the needle,
get excitable, Get you excitable as a casual fan or
if you're one of the uh a fan of one
of these teams that think you're in the running for
his services, you'd like a little more then. I don't
know either they're either they get an audience with them
or they don't.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
You guys, do realize that everything you guys just said
for the last fourteen minutes means nothing because the Lakers
just dipped right.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Oh sorry, The Lakers are yes, playing for a spot
in the semifinals in the playing tournament. Yeah, Game seven,
this is ah, yes, it is. It's a three pointer
by DeAngelo Russell and he's already doing windmills and airplane
movements going down the court.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Three nothing, Lakers.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
But look, I really wish that's the case, because we're
the ones that are robbed on this, and it could
have been really easy to just say, hey, why not
because you know and and not that Otani's got to
change who he is. But dude, you're gonna sign a
contract that anyone in the history of sports has not signed,
No one's getting, No one in the history of the
(13:55):
game has gotten six hundred million dollar contract. You're gonna
get it.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
How about you?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
How baseball out a little bit about jab up jump
major League Baseball? But just hey, you know what it's
okay if you say where we're meeting and where we
could be going and pontificating about it and talking about
it again, it's it's nothing. It's not that it's a
it's an invasion of privacy or anything else. But it's
just to hear that, oh, hey, we're gonna hold it
against you if it gets out that we met. I mean,
come on, man, this is not Hey, if my girlfriend
(14:19):
finds out we've been hanging out, she's gonna be mad.
You can't tell anybody about this. I mean, that's kind
of what this is.

(17:25):
into a big story out of the NFL, justin Frossburg,
how do you feel so far? Lakers quarterfinals of the
in season tournament.
Speaker 6 (17:33):
So far they look okay, dude, they're gonna hoist the
pob Trophy.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Actually done.
Speaker 6 (17:39):
They not only came to play, they're taking this like
it's game seven.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
It is. I mean, really, it's a tournament. It's a
tournament for the Lakers. It's game seven. They're playing pretty
well so far. Yeah, and then Thursday there's like a
two o'clock in the afternoon game. Nobody's watching bucks Pacer. Yeah,
that's Bucks Pacing.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I mean, look, the Knicks are out. That's good. No
one's gonna watch the Knicks to watch. You had a
chance to give me something to watch, something to get
excited about, and you blow it. Lakers lead Phoenix sixteen
eleven right now again, quarterfinals of the in season tournament,
midway through the first quarter. Meanwhile, you know, I again
(18:17):
I said yesterday, I just want the Jets to be
able to just slide into the offseason. At this point,
they're not making the playoffs. Rogers isn't coming back. No, no, no,
We're still gonna be a front burner, tie or fire.
So today, first thing, the Jets go get a quarterback.
They way get rid of Tim Boyle. Then clearly TJ
they wanted to lance that boil from the team. So
(18:40):
and they signed Brett Rippin off of the Seahawks practice squad.
Brett Rippon, who automatically becomes the best quarterback on the
roster just by getting signed. So there is proof that
Jets listen to the show, because what did I say
last night? The Jets should cut all three guys and
bring in three new quarterbacks and just play them until
one plays well?
Speaker 4 (18:57):
All right, claim you go sign bar Yeah when Frostberg
was joking about it yesterday.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Yeah, mitke Barker, go get three? Because I know these
three guys all stink, you know, Wave Zach Wilson, Wave,
Trevor Simeon. You brought in Brett Rippen. Great, We've seen guys,
and guys have proven I can come in and start
after not really knowing the playbook. Josh Stubbs won a
game in the fourth quarter and through for like two
hundred yards, didn't know his guys teammates names, and he's
still able to do it. Go get three? So maybe
(19:23):
this is the start, right, So they listened to the show,
so we get that. And then a story that is
so totally Jets. Robert Sala, head coach of the Jets.
This has been a big story in New York and
now it's gone national because of course Aaron Rodgers has
waited on it. Joe Binigno is a longtime radio host
on WFAN. You probably heard his name, he's a huge
(19:43):
Jets fan. He won a contest like thirty five years
ago to be the overnight host on Wfan. He's a
big Jets fan. And then he was on. He had
a long career Wfan. And I don't know if he's
still technically there, retired or not. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
But he does a podcast I think now. But yeah, he.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Says the other day, I is texting with Robert Sala,
and I can tell that he doesn't like Zach Wilson
from the text that he sent me. And whoa that
became a thing in New York. Whoaa, whoa Sonan he
goes on Wfan today with Booberusia's and a couple of
shows and and he said, well, I think maybe I
misunderstood some of the some of the meanings of what
(20:21):
Robert Sala said to me about Zack Wilson. Oh so
maybe Robert Sala likes Zack Wilson. All this as the
Jets try to downplay whether or not Zach Wilson actually
was asked to be the starter again, and he may
or may not have said I'm not interested. This is
what the Jet. The Jets are dealing with. All of
this I feel like Joe Peschy and my cousin Vinnie.
Is it ready more crapped? We could pile on the
(20:43):
top of his case, my future, your wedding, vic Kid's life.
Is there anything else? So this is what the Jet
everything else is going on here, right, Okay? So this
is enough? And then Aaron Rodgers weighs in, and then
Aaron Rodgers weighs in on all the stuff going on
and the leak story about how, hey, maybe Zach Wilson
may or may not have turned down the chance to
(21:04):
be the Jets started quarterback. And now you have Robert
Salad texting a member of the media in New York.
And now the last thing that Jets need to do
was to upset Aaron Rodgers. Yet that's exactly what they did.
Speaker 8 (21:15):
I have had relationships with, obviously a number of different
media people over the years. You get to know them.
They're in the locker room. There was Viba writers. You
put your name on something, then you stand behind it,
you know, like I believe and this and yes it's over, yeah, exactly,
(21:35):
thank you, But what you're saying put your name behind it.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
There it is he said it was chicken blank for
this to happen, put your name on it. Who got
this story from where? And now I'm like, great, the
last thing that Jets it They pissed off the one
guy they need for next year. That's selling everybody on
hope that the Jets can be good. Wait till Aaron
Rodgers realizes, Oh man, this team is an absolute train wreck,
(22:02):
not just on the field, but I want out. I
don't want to play for this team. You have to
trade me. I don't want to be on this team anymore.
That Jet the only thing that can they at least
get to the end of the season and not piss
off Aaron Rodgers. No, that's where we're at right now.
Jetsho no, no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Look, and we joked about it yesterday a little bits
as stuff started to swirl, Rassini sticking by her reporting
and saying, you know this is where we got and
you know this is what we have blah blah blah
for Aaron Rodgers. I really hope for his sake there
aren't any mirrors in the house, because you know what,
eventually he's gonna see one. He's going, oh, that's the
(22:39):
guy that screwed up the Jets. It's his fault. That's
the guy that brought in a bunch of shlubs and
forced the hand of the GM to build a subpar
roster for Zach Wilson. Now, they made mistakes there after,
and you know part of it was him getting hurt
as quickly as he did. Because if you were trying
(23:00):
to do the red shirt Zach Wilson things we've talked about,
should have been another guy to insulate. That should have
been a since the dollar cost averaging. You know, Rogers contract,
bring in some mid tier veteran guy, and then you're
still paying Zach Wilson next to nothing on that rookie deal,
all on a relative basis of course, that he could
(23:21):
sit and learn and only be forced in. You know
when the second guy sucked, when all those X packers,
oh and his buddy Hackett.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Do their job.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
I like that. I like that. I like what you
did there. Look, there's there's a couple of things with
this story and and and the first one is this
is that again tell me how Robert sala Is is
in charge of this and and is someone who is
up for the job. I've told you that Jets are
a tear down from GM down. Other teams have lost
(23:55):
starting quarterbacks, franchise guys, franchise running backs, franchise wide receivers,
and there in the playoff hunt this year, and here's
Robert solid texting a guy in the media to wear
a guy in the media who won a contest thirty
five years ago. Is that, Hey, guess what Robert Sala
doesn't like Zach Wilson. Wait what, I'm just going by
the text he has. It sounds like you're not a
(24:15):
fan of guys winning contest to get a job, like
like like, like, dude, what are you doing texting a
guy in the media about stuff that he could potentially
go on the air with and say, hey, here's what
it is, and it could be something that's really damaging
or whether or not he's met. I mean, if you're
gonna text somebody in the media, texts me, at least
I help you fix the bleeping team, I'm not gonna
sit here. I would say, Hey, I know Aaron Rodgers
(24:37):
just got hurt. How about you get some other the quarterbacks,
because clearly you took the job away from Zack Wilson
because you didn't think he was any good. Now you're
gonna put him back out there. Tell me where that
makes sense. Yeah, go get Josh Dobbs, go get somebody else.
Go get Brett Rippen, go get that. I would have
helped them fix the team at least, and right now
we'd be like nine and four. It would be look
how great things are. We're fantastic and got I gotta
(24:59):
credit Jason Smith Fox Sports Radio A lot. I started
texting with him, and look, now the team is fixed.
He's like our shadow head coach, like if I was
the head coach, and Aaron Rodgers looked like he was
the head coach when he was on the sidelines in
the exhibition season. And hey, Jason Smith is like the
shadow shadow head coach because he's telling me what to do.
He knows the media, he knows the teams, he knows
the players. Text me I want to help instead of
(25:19):
all this crazy ass stuff going on right now.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
But that's the thing, right it was a sad attempt
at clout that all he did was take a five
five gallon You know what are.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
They two and a half gallons that those little red things.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
You feel when you run out of gas On the
side of all he did was chuck that into it
already burning floating dumpster.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
It's only a gallon of guest, doesn't matter. It's enough
to keep that.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
It's enough to keep it going for another week till
the next guy gets in front of a microphone.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
But that's all he did. It was just a desperate
move for clout.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
He could have barely, very easily just said, you know,
I've gotten text For people close to the situation, I'd
say the head coach and members of the staff are
not happy at all with Zach wilson attitude.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Blah blah blah.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
Didn't need to name him, but decided he wanted the cloud.
He wanted to see his name.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
He wanted to see his name in the you know,
the National Geographic.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Yeah, I went full jaws there geographic.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
Yeah, I went I went Murray right there, man, the
greatest mayor elected to a second term after everybody got wrong.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Here's the story about lemurs in the wild and oh yeah,
look it's the Jets. Everything has gone wrong. Look, Robert
sal I'm telling you, I've told you for a while.
He's not up to it. He's not up to this.
And this is a clear example. I'm texting a guy
in the media, and who can turn around and really
just make me look bad or whatever reason. I don't
get how. I don't get how that happens. I don't
(26:48):
get how that happened with you're a head coach. What
are you doing, Jessy? I get you. Hey, you're texting
reporters for stuff, But you have to understand every time
you text, it's the same thing as when you're talking
during a during an interview session, or the camera is
on you. And and look at what can happen. And
now Aaron Rodgers is mad. The one guy that can't
get mad. I gotta get out of here, man, this
(27:09):
place is to I thought I thought I left all
my problems behind in Green Bay. This is even worse. Man.
I gotta go. I gotta get to New England need quarterback.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
But this is.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
Brilliant by him. It's except for guys like being bringing
up the.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Fact that he wrought a lot of this himself.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Hey, Hacket should be your guy there and I'll come. Hey, cool, we.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Gotta find the leak out who did this? Hey, let's
leak out who's said. Let's sign Lazard and Boil and
Cob and all the let's figure out those and hacking
is the offensive coordinator. Let's find that guy. Let's leak
it out. Though we don't need to leak it out
because I'm looking.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
At him right now.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
This is the Jets, This is the Jets. They can't
even lose. Just say you know what, Hey, sorry, yeah, hey,
we rode the lightning for a while and everybody was
paying attention to us, and it's great for the brand.
But now now we stak and we just want to fit. Nope,
we are we. We have decided there is no such
thing as rock bottom. No, let's get to rock bottom.
Let's put some TNT down there. Let's blow Let's blow
(28:05):
the thing up and dig as deeper as possible. Get
me more shovels, Get those real powerful shovels. Get one
of those mythic quest shovels they made for season two. Yeah,
you start digging and digging in let's hit rock bottom
and keep going. At what point do you hang the
five snaps banner? I think you gotta do it tomorrow.
You gotta make Aaron Rodgers happy, you know, hey, Day
twenty that's not gonna make him happy. Twenty twenty three
(28:27):
signed Aaron Rodgers. He's never playing for you, guys, out
and any any time you do something to paint him
as a positive light and make him feel good and
give him good publicity. No, he's up for it.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
That's not a good banner.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
He's completely up for it. Yeah, No, he's up for it.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
It's let's give him a five snap salute.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
That's a good that's a good banner. Aaron Rodgers. Aaron
Rodgers signed, like you know, like like you see when
when team signed somebody in free agency and it's the
picture of them photoshop the new uniform and it just
says signed, Hey, great thing. That's just that's the banner.
Aaron Rodgers, You're signed. Taking me back to the mid
seventies and tops baseball cards when they'd have the giant
(29:01):
traded stand Yeah, or they do the they'd actually do
the paint job because they didn't get a photo of
a guy because they went to print before spring training,
so they'd literally paint the uniform and a logo on at.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
Does it look good?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Yeah? It looks painted not yeah, but it's best we
could do. All right, enough, let's go, boy man, Look,
photoshop really helped a lot of people. That powder blue
of the Rangers doesn't look like the powder blue of
the Blue Jays.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Doesn't matter.

we couldn't even get that done. That's that special, even
for us. Man, that's react we would we wouldn't even
do that. So we're in Vegas and we're the Raiders
and we couldn't even have that happen. Oh boy, the
Jets are a special kind of tire fire.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
It's all your fault. He picked the wrong team.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I did, I did, I did it's all your fault.
You could have been a Giants fan and you could
have been celebrating the greatness of Tommy DeVito. I know,
instead you got Rogers laughing and trying to make fun
of the organization and calling them out when he created
the whole mess. We got more NFL on the way
because we thought we were gonna get a quarterback Derby
(30:43):
and now we are not. Guess who's keeping his job.
That's straight ahead right here for the tyrech dot Com studios.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
The horns on that. It just gets you started last years.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
When he's really in it. We hear it like five
times a night. Here it is, that's so true.
Speaker 3 (31:53):

(32:17):
We thought we were gonna get a quarterback Derby, but
now a team that is in the hunt has decided
to stay with a guy who has brought energy to
the team. Tommy Cutlets, Tommy DeVito is gonna stay the
quarterback of the New York Giants, despite the fact to
Rod Taylor back at practice he was the startup tole
he got hurt. Tommy Cutletz has come in, Jersey, Cad,
(32:40):
He's come in. He's gotta let this shitty up a
little bit for a couple of games. Forgot about what
he did against the Jets when I wouldn't let him
try to football. But the last couple of games, A,
he's pretty good. A you started a one week in
fantasy was pretty good. So Tommy DeVito's gonna be a
quarterback that everybody's really really happy about this Mike.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Ninety two rating seven TDS, three picks. Why not. Guys
are starting to get help healthy.
Speaker 4 (33:00):
We got reports that Darren Waller is running routes, may
come back for another game.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
See what I did there?
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Yeah, you know, I knew exactly what you're saying. I
was gonna jump on top and I'm like, no, we
can let just let it go because let it breathe
hit it, let it breathe right there. But I mean,
you look at the schedule going forward.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
You got a big game against the surging Green Bay Packers,
but after that a date against the really enigmatic and
maddening New Orleans Saints before you have Philly Rams Philly
to end the season.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Again. I hate the schedule makers.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
They suck, but you at least have an opportunity here
because they're in the hunt right at the back end
of the NFC and if they can get healthy coming
out of the by and maybe a couple of wrinkles
into that offense.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Who the hell knows? Smith? All right, and we all know,
but you know.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
What Tarad Taylor is, Tommy DeVito, it's one of those
you know, hey, is he any good?
Speaker 2 (33:54):
We don't know.
Speaker 4 (33:55):
We got a couple of games that we see some
things we like. We moved the football, we actually put
some points on the board. So why why the hell not?
Why not keep rolling through it?
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (34:05):
I want to tap the brakes on Tommy Cutlet's okay,
I want to tap the breaks just because you're mad
about the Jets and because he's a better story and
he's given them life while we're all singing funeral dirges
for you, don't sell don't sell that story short. Remember
he's also a guy that couldn't keep the starting job
in Syracuse and had to transfer. I know, Syracuse I
(34:29):
had to.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Go to Illinois. Now he's in the.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
NFL undrafted free agent, turn down money from other teams
to be a giant. No, I'm not bitter at all.
Yes I am, but let me just say yes, because
this is a sucking story that a guy that any
other team can just stick their finger in a pot
and a pie and come out all of that. I
gotta I got a plumb. Look, say you stick your
(34:54):
thumb and a pie and he come out with a
plumb right, there's me right, any any other team can
do that. Hey, guess that's what I could. I could,
I could. I could come up with a miracle the
bottom of any socker. Any quarterback I go out there,
look at him play. Except the Jets. Everybody we signed
stinks and they get Brett Ripping today he immediately is
the best quarterback on the roster. No, yes, I am bitter,
and it pisses me off to Tommy Devitos this guy.
(35:16):
But let's tap the breaks. The guy's having a moment. Okay,
he's an undrafted free agent for a reason. Not everybody
suddenly has brought party.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
He's having him.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
It's kind of like his own little Minshew Mania or
when Mark Sanchez had those couple of big games for
the Eagles back in twenty fourteen. He's having a moment.
It's nice. Is this gonna sustain? I hope not. Is
this gonna sustain? That's the big thing. But let's tap
the brakes a little bit on Tommy Kyley. He's a
fun story. Tommy's a fun dude. They're gonna we're winning.
(35:46):
We're four and eight. Everybody thinks we're still We're still
in it. We'll trade Daniel Jones at the end of
this year. We got Tommy DeVito. It's pretty good. We'll
have Danny DeVito come to games and throw out the
first ball of some kind. We'll have them throwing a
ball with each other. It's gonna be great. We got
the Vito's all over. We'll have Carla Devino come out
and do it a Paradise by the dashboard light song.
I'm out of the Vetos after this. We got Tommy,
(36:06):
we got Danny, we got Caller, we had all of
the Vitos. But tap the brakes. He's having a moment.
That's what's happening.
Speaker 4 (36:13):
Well, I would say this one, we don't know two.
It's it's it's a fun story. And just because you're
mad one because he left Syracuse.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
Two and embarrassing the Jets he left Syracuse. And because
he's got those two.
Speaker 4 (36:27):
I mean you know that that's it's not your fault, buddy,
It's not a crime perpetrated against you.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
But it But but it feels like it feels like
it feels like everybody's ganging.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Up on it.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
It feels like it's again his holiday holiday, holiday season.
I feel I feel like this is all for me.
It's like my own personal I'm like I'm the Truman
Show of this story right here. It's all against you, Jason,
all against you. Tommy Cuttins is coming, gonna bring the
They're gonna win nine in a row and make the
playoffs a nine to eight and Tommy Cutlets is great.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
Look Philadelphia's showing cracks man. It's time o man. I
mean you got guys calling for quarterback changes there exit.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
How about a Frescos swollen dome coming up next?
Speaker 2 (37:07):

And that's what happened today. The Buck have knocked out
the Knicks. Mike. The Knicks are out of the NBA
In season tournament. It is done for the Knicks. They
will no longer be advancing. They are out of the
in season tournaments.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Well, they had a really good run Julius Randall was
a first half superstar.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
I mean that was a big deal.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Seeing that stat line floating about the operational efficiency.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
That was you know, I had a multi screen experience.
Can you believe this?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
You had a Julius Randall multi screen experience?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
No, no, no, that's awesome.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
I'm watching the Bucks and Nicks on one screen, and
on the other I was watching a sporting event.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Get it on True TV.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Oh, it was like you were in March already.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
You're in the middle of March.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
United States China, just gone final of friendly two to one,
your final.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
But what was funny is just ahead.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Of the US's second goal to take the lead, which
they've just now blown the whistle final, they spent five
minutes extolling the virtues and greatness of the the Team
China defense, and then they had one of the worst
clearing attempts I've ever seen, failed by three different people.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Before it dribbled back.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Out for the eventual game winners.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Yeah, there was kind of funny.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
It was not a great first half of the United
States at all. Kinds of possession. We'd never both a score. Yeah,
they're losing one nothing, Okay.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Great, that was a great header back in that that
led to the goal. Should have been an off sets
all but you know, hey, they let it go one
nothing at half and eventually they scored two to win
the game. But the whole time it's like, wow, the
Chinese defense playing well, and then the two goals they
gave up two of the worst defensive sequences you will
see at any level of soccer.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
You know, you know, kind of funny. You know.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
One thing I kind of like now is that True TV,
And I feel bad. Well, I don't feel bad for
True TV because obviously they have, you know, that have
more sports now, but that, like True TV was always
like what the hell, man, there's a game on True TV?
And it was for a few years it was WHOA
what an outlier? Now there's games on all kinds of
crazy ass chant. That's it, man, You want to go
watch I want to go watch Syracuse. They're on the CW. What, yes,
(03:04):
they're on the CW.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I want to watch football? What do you got?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Oh, no, go go find instead of SpongeBob, it's SpongeBob
announcing the damn game.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
So I mean, you know, you got all sorts of stuff.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yeah, the game is on Fox. Eleven Big Fox No
no no? Oh Fox Sports one, No, no, no, Fox
Sports two?
Speaker 2 (03:19):
No?
Speaker 1 (03:20):
What Fox Business Channel?
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Look at Fox Business Channel. Okay, let me get that.
I think I have that right here.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
We're missing it.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, the only thing we're missing right now is I
don't think there's been a game on the Hallmark channel yet.
Well it's well, okay, because now, what are you going
to show? A sporting event or a Hallmark Christmas movie?
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Come on?
Speaker 4 (03:36):
They could have everybody in special ceremonial Santa and elf outfit.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
They could. They could tell Hallmark, hey, you guys have
all the NFL games every Sunday in December. They would say, yeah, no,
we can't. We have contracts with Lacy Severt and uh.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Gale O'Grady cook for everything.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yes, look we can't. People expect holiday movies and we
can't put on a football game when people are expecting
someone to move to a town in Vermont get asked
to plan a fall festival and fall in love with
the doctor that they knew in high school that moved
back to the town to take care of his mom.
Can't we can have Eagles forty nine ers when that
is on our docket? Just can't do it.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
It was funny, you know.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Do you see all the ads and you know the
banners that show up on your TV. And they were
advertising that new Eddie Murphy Christmas movie that came out.
I started to watch it. Seven minutes in I had
nine of the bingo cards, lots of a Christmas movie done.
I can't do it, Sorry, Ednie. I love the cast.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
The rect is damn plain like Norad.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, and the Dodgers. Today manager Dave Roberts talked about how, yes,
they met with Otani a few days ago for a
couple of hours. Here's Dave Roberts from earlier today.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
It's a good possibility. I think that, Yeah, we met
with him. You know, I don't want to I'd like
to be honest, and so we met with show Hey
and we talked and I.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Think it went well.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
I think it went well. But at the end of
the day, he's his own man, and he's gonna do
what best for himself where he feels most.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Dave, your MIC's on Dave. So this either was really
good for the Dodgers, because, according to Bob Nightingale, longtime
Baseball insider friend of the show, the Dodgers, Angels, and
Blue Jays are the final three teams for Rotan, So
he's going to the Royals, however, yes, or a mystery team. However,
we also got many reports today from insiders that Hey,
(06:25):
Otani's people team O'tani are very upset. They don't want
anything leaked out as to his free agency plans, and
if that stuff gets leaked out, that is something they
would hold against a team in moving somewhere in free agency.
So the Dodgers either are in the finals and Dave
Roberts had a great meeting and it was awesome, or
(06:46):
the Dodgers were great and Dave Roberts just blew it,
and now Otani's not going to the Dodgers. One of
those things is happening, Mike Carmon.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Yeah, I mean one of the reports, right, I mean
out of the Nightingales. Robert spoke freely and relaxed for
twenty minutes, but his face became as he spent several
moments reading a text masters on his phone. After his session,
he immediately huddled with Dodgers public relations officials. Day So
damn they were waving like they walk over with a taser.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Why did that guy put Dave Roberts in a sleeper hole? Well, listen,
and here's what Otani said to me. Oh, sorry, we
have to take Dave out right now. You're gonna you know, hey,
how about legend Steve Garvey is gonna come up here.
He Come on, Steve, come on up and talk to
everybody here that we talked about him. Talk about your
Senate run, any anything but the Otani meeting. We got
(07:36):
any other Dodger legends here that can come up and talk,
coming and talk for a few minutes.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
You know, it's been a long time since I went
and asked a man for an autograph or anything, you know,
and being in the business we are, I want to
go ask Dave Roberts for his autograph because he's a
man of the people.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
He's like a hero.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
They should build a damn statue out front of Dodgers
Stadium right now, because he just said, screw all the
protocols and the the you know, orders of you know,
be quiet, don't don't you know, blink twice if you've
seen her talk to an Otani official or Otani himself,
if you had an audience he said the quiet part
out loud.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Good for him, you know.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
But here here's and here's the thing. Look, because as
great as Otani is, right, as great as Otani is,
and Buster only talked about hey boy, this free agency
thing with Otani is is is really getting out of control.
And there's these threats and there's all kinds of stuff happening.
I'm like, you know what, why couldn't this have been fun?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Right?
Speaker 1 (08:31):
The show Hey Otani free agency story should have been
an unbelievable time for baseball, right, it should have been,
Oh my god, this is the best player any of
us have ever seen, and he's gonna be a free agent.
And now because hey, we want to keep it. Why
does it matter?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
This is that?
Speaker 1 (08:47):
I mean, I don't understand why it's such a big deal.
We want to keep it secret, who we're meeting with, what.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
It's a right, But it's a circus anyway, right, And
it's not like you're inviting people to stand outside your
house as you're meeting with them, living gated community.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Routs aren't getting on motorcycles following you going there? He is,
go get it? I mean, this should have been.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Why why spark, Spark?
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Why? But I don't understand why this is such a
big deal. It's probably it's one thing. If hey, my
family is being bombarded whenever they see somebody in the mall,
where is show hey going? Like, if it's stuff like
that going on, I get it, But this is just oh,
we don't want people to know who we're meeting with, Like,
what the hell? Man? This should be fun. This should
be a celebration of baseball, and it should be where
is this guy going? Right? This should be the the
(09:34):
the the the free agent tour of of of a
superstar going, Oh my god, he's talking with you. Could
he actually go to the Dodger? This should be on
the Lebron James level for Major League Baseball.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
But instead or Carmelo or all those guys as they
went around city to city that you that.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Was so fun, you said, Garmelo, no, no.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
No, but obviously you had the decision.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
But I'm talking about you know, even even the other
guys from that class, they all went around, they had
their names on the market. They got the whole Blue
Chips treatment with all the announcements and music and everything else.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Make it a festival.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I don't I don't get what this is all about.
And instead it's just a Oh it's secrecy, and we're
gonna find out someone's on a team. Oh, he was
gonna find out the team he chooses, and we're gonna
find it. Oh, maybe he's met at the team because
they let slip that they met he didn't say any details,
Like Dave Roberts said, well, he sat down and he
demanded this kind of money, wanted this kind of thing
on that you're you're going somewhere where you're gonna get
probably six hundred million dollars. It looks like you've convinced
(10:28):
teams to say, hey, he will be okay to pitch
in a couple of years. So six hundred million dollars
is completely on the table for him. For you, Uh okay,
So you're you're getting that. And now suddenly this is
what it is. It's it's this should have been fun.
This should have been a celebration of baseball, and it
should have been something that, boy, hey you're counting down
to show Heyo Tani free agency? Where is he going?
And there should be interviews and there should be all
(10:50):
kinds of fun stuff. And instead it's just okay, it's
under the cover of darkness, and this is what we have. Now.
Everybody's different, and I get that some guys like the publicity,
like this is Aaron Rodgers, Oh my god, he'd be
in a rhinestone coat doing said it would be it
would be incredible, And so I get Otani as kind
of a is a private person wants to do things
(11:11):
a certain way. But this is not like there anybody's
asking for anything. That's not just something that would be
public record. Did you meet with the team or no,
can't we tell you? No, you're a free agent. It's okay,
it's okay if we know there's no there's no uh
tampering happening here. It just it should have been more fun.
And I wish that could have been communicated and that
could have been something that was agreed upon. Hey, it's okay,
(11:31):
because this is great for baseball, and you know, this
would have Matt you know, and imagined Rob Manford stepping
into actually say something like this. But it's just I
feel like, as fans, we were robbed of what could
have been an unbelievable week. And look, I would have
spent a couple of days going, oh, my god, the
Mets could get Otani and then the Mets are out
of the running.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
It's oh, we're out of the running for Otani.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I mean, there could have been that kind of emotion
swings and it could have been great, and instead it's just, yeah,
we're gonna find out because it's all secret.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Oh nothing else we could have gotten public dissemination and
presents of the slide decks here on Major League Baseball Network.
Instead of watching guys vamp and try to make stuff
up and tell you what they had for breakfast, you
could have had all right. Here was the Milwaukee Brewers pitch,
and here's Bernie Brewer coming down the slide to start
(12:16):
it off. I mean, and then team to team, here's
what we can offer as a city, if nothing else,
it's a tourism package for each of these thirty Major
League Baseball teams. Along the way they're thinking the organizational
not that you go too deep into plans, not to
divulge at all, but at least a little bit of
fun in terms of this process. Instead, you got everybody saying,
(12:37):
I don't know, do I have real good authority to
even talk about this, because Otani's people may take out
my communications and I might eliminate my team just by
saying I looked at him.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
It's just a badge place for Major League Baseball.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
I mean, there's just so many guys that move the needle,
get excitable, Get you excitable as a casual fan or
if you're one of the uh a fan of one
of these teams that think you're in the running for
his services, you'd like a little more then. I don't
know either they're either they get an audience with them
or they don't.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
You guys, do realize that everything you guys just said
for the last fourteen minutes means nothing because the Lakers
just dipped right.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Oh sorry, The Lakers are yes, playing for a spot
in the semifinals in the playing tournament. Yeah, Game seven,
this is ah, yes, it is. It's a three pointer
by DeAngelo Russell and he's already doing windmills and airplane
movements going down the court.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Three nothing, Lakers.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
But look, I really wish that's the case, because we're
the ones that are robbed on this, and it could
have been really easy to just say, hey, why not
because you know and and not that Otani's got to
change who he is. But dude, you're gonna sign a
contract that anyone in the history of sports has not signed,
No one's getting, No one in the history of the
(13:55):
game has gotten six hundred million dollar contract. You're gonna
get it.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
How about you?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
How baseball out a little bit about jab up jump
major League Baseball? But just hey, you know what it's
okay if you say where we're meeting and where we
could be going and pontificating about it and talking about
it again, it's it's nothing. It's not that it's a
it's an invasion of privacy or anything else. But it's
just to hear that, oh, hey, we're gonna hold it
against you if it gets out that we met. I mean,
come on, man, this is not Hey, if my girlfriend
(14:19):
finds out we've been hanging out, she's gonna be mad.
You can't tell anybody about this. I mean, that's kind
of what this is.

(17:25):
into a big story out of the NFL, justin Frossburg,
how do you feel so far? Lakers quarterfinals of the
in season tournament.
Speaker 6 (17:33):
So far they look okay, dude, they're gonna hoist the
pob Trophy.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Actually done.
Speaker 6 (17:39):
They not only came to play, they're taking this like
it's game seven.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
It is. I mean, really, it's a tournament. It's a
tournament for the Lakers. It's game seven. They're playing pretty
well so far. Yeah, and then Thursday there's like a
two o'clock in the afternoon game. Nobody's watching bucks Pacer. Yeah,
that's Bucks Pacing.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I mean, look, the Knicks are out. That's good. No
one's gonna watch the Knicks to watch. You had a
chance to give me something to watch, something to get
excited about, and you blow it. Lakers lead Phoenix sixteen
eleven right now again, quarterfinals of the in season tournament,
midway through the first quarter. Meanwhile, you know, I again
(18:17):
I said yesterday, I just want the Jets to be
able to just slide into the offseason. At this point,
they're not making the playoffs. Rogers isn't coming back. No, no, no,
We're still gonna be a front burner, tie or fire.
So today, first thing, the Jets go get a quarterback.
They way get rid of Tim Boyle. Then clearly TJ
they wanted to lance that boil from the team. So
(18:40):
and they signed Brett Rippin off of the Seahawks practice squad.
Brett Rippon, who automatically becomes the best quarterback on the
roster just by getting signed. So there is proof that
Jets listen to the show, because what did I say
last night? The Jets should cut all three guys and
bring in three new quarterbacks and just play them until
one plays well?
Speaker 4 (18:57):
All right, claim you go sign bar Yeah when Frostberg
was joking about it yesterday.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Yeah, mitke Barker, go get three? Because I know these
three guys all stink, you know, Wave Zach Wilson, Wave,
Trevor Simeon. You brought in Brett Rippen. Great, We've seen guys,
and guys have proven I can come in and start
after not really knowing the playbook. Josh Stubbs won a
game in the fourth quarter and through for like two
hundred yards, didn't know his guys teammates names, and he's
still able to do it. Go get three? So maybe
(19:23):
this is the start, right, So they listened to the show,
so we get that. And then a story that is
so totally Jets. Robert Sala, head coach of the Jets.
This has been a big story in New York and
now it's gone national because of course Aaron Rodgers has
waited on it. Joe Binigno is a longtime radio host
on WFAN. You probably heard his name, he's a huge
(19:43):
Jets fan. He won a contest like thirty five years
ago to be the overnight host on Wfan. He's a
big Jets fan. And then he was on. He had
a long career Wfan. And I don't know if he's
still technically there, retired or not. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
But he does a podcast I think now. But yeah, he.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Says the other day, I is texting with Robert Sala,
and I can tell that he doesn't like Zach Wilson
from the text that he sent me. And whoa that
became a thing in New York. Whoaa, whoa Sonan he
goes on Wfan today with Booberusia's and a couple of
shows and and he said, well, I think maybe I
misunderstood some of the some of the meanings of what
(20:21):
Robert Sala said to me about Zack Wilson. Oh so
maybe Robert Sala likes Zack Wilson. All this as the
Jets try to downplay whether or not Zach Wilson actually
was asked to be the starter again, and he may
or may not have said I'm not interested. This is
what the Jet. The Jets are dealing with. All of
this I feel like Joe Peschy and my cousin Vinnie.
Is it ready more crapped? We could pile on the
(20:43):
top of his case, my future, your wedding, vic Kid's life.
Is there anything else? So this is what the Jet
everything else is going on here, right, Okay? So this
is enough? And then Aaron Rodgers weighs in, and then
Aaron Rodgers weighs in on all the stuff going on
and the leak story about how, hey, maybe Zach Wilson
may or may not have turned down the chance to
(21:04):
be the Jets started quarterback. And now you have Robert
Salad texting a member of the media in New York.
And now the last thing that Jets need to do
was to upset Aaron Rodgers. Yet that's exactly what they did.
Speaker 8 (21:15):
I have had relationships with, obviously a number of different
media people over the years. You get to know them.
They're in the locker room. There was Viba writers. You
put your name on something, then you stand behind it,
you know, like I believe and this and yes it's over, yeah, exactly,
(21:35):
thank you, But what you're saying put your name behind it.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
There it is he said it was chicken blank for
this to happen, put your name on it. Who got
this story from where? And now I'm like, great, the
last thing that Jets it They pissed off the one
guy they need for next year. That's selling everybody on
hope that the Jets can be good. Wait till Aaron
Rodgers realizes, Oh man, this team is an absolute train wreck,
(22:02):
not just on the field, but I want out. I
don't want to play for this team. You have to
trade me. I don't want to be on this team anymore.
That Jet the only thing that can they at least
get to the end of the season and not piss
off Aaron Rodgers. No, that's where we're at right now.
Jetsho no, no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Look, and we joked about it yesterday a little bits
as stuff started to swirl, Rassini sticking by her reporting
and saying, you know this is where we got and
you know this is what we have blah blah blah
for Aaron Rodgers. I really hope for his sake there
aren't any mirrors in the house, because you know what,
eventually he's gonna see one. He's going, oh, that's the
(22:39):
guy that screwed up the Jets. It's his fault. That's
the guy that brought in a bunch of shlubs and
forced the hand of the GM to build a subpar
roster for Zach Wilson. Now, they made mistakes there after,
and you know part of it was him getting hurt
as quickly as he did. Because if you were trying
(23:00):
to do the red shirt Zach Wilson things we've talked about,
should have been another guy to insulate. That should have
been a since the dollar cost averaging. You know, Rogers contract,
bring in some mid tier veteran guy, and then you're
still paying Zach Wilson next to nothing on that rookie deal,
all on a relative basis of course, that he could
(23:21):
sit and learn and only be forced in. You know
when the second guy sucked, when all those X packers,
oh and his buddy Hackett.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Do their job.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
I like that. I like that. I like what you
did there. Look, there's there's a couple of things with
this story and and and the first one is this
is that again tell me how Robert sala Is is
in charge of this and and is someone who is
up for the job. I've told you that Jets are
a tear down from GM down. Other teams have lost
(23:55):
starting quarterbacks, franchise guys, franchise running backs, franchise wide receivers,
and there in the playoff hunt this year, and here's
Robert solid texting a guy in the media to wear
a guy in the media who won a contest thirty
five years ago. Is that, Hey, guess what Robert Sala
doesn't like Zach Wilson. Wait what, I'm just going by
the text he has. It sounds like you're not a
(24:15):
fan of guys winning contest to get a job, like
like like, like, dude, what are you doing texting a
guy in the media about stuff that he could potentially
go on the air with and say, hey, here's what
it is, and it could be something that's really damaging
or whether or not he's met. I mean, if you're
gonna text somebody in the media, texts me, at least
I help you fix the bleeping team, I'm not gonna
sit here. I would say, Hey, I know Aaron Rodgers
(24:37):
just got hurt. How about you get some other the quarterbacks,
because clearly you took the job away from Zack Wilson
because you didn't think he was any good. Now you're
gonna put him back out there. Tell me where that
makes sense. Yeah, go get Josh Dobbs, go get somebody else.
Go get Brett Rippen, go get that. I would have
helped them fix the team at least, and right now
we'd be like nine and four. It would be look
how great things are. We're fantastic and got I gotta
(24:59):
credit Jason Smith Fox Sports Radio A lot. I started
texting with him, and look, now the team is fixed.
He's like our shadow head coach, like if I was
the head coach, and Aaron Rodgers looked like he was
the head coach when he was on the sidelines in
the exhibition season. And hey, Jason Smith is like the
shadow shadow head coach because he's telling me what to do.
He knows the media, he knows the teams, he knows
the players. Text me I want to help instead of
(25:19):
all this crazy ass stuff going on right now.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
But that's the thing, right it was a sad attempt
at clout that all he did was take a five
five gallon You know what are.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
They two and a half gallons that those little red things.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
You feel when you run out of gas On the
side of all he did was chuck that into it
already burning floating dumpster.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
It's only a gallon of guest, doesn't matter. It's enough
to keep that.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
It's enough to keep it going for another week till
the next guy gets in front of a microphone.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
But that's all he did. It was just a desperate
move for clout.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
He could have barely, very easily just said, you know,
I've gotten text For people close to the situation, I'd
say the head coach and members of the staff are
not happy at all with Zach wilson attitude.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Blah blah blah.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
Didn't need to name him, but decided he wanted the cloud.
He wanted to see his name.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
He wanted to see his name in the you know,
the National Geographic.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Yeah, I went full jaws there geographic.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
Yeah, I went I went Murray right there, man, the
greatest mayor elected to a second term after everybody got wrong.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Here's the story about lemurs in the wild and oh yeah,
look it's the Jets. Everything has gone wrong. Look, Robert
sal I'm telling you, I've told you for a while.
He's not up to it. He's not up to this.
And this is a clear example. I'm texting a guy
in the media, and who can turn around and really
just make me look bad or whatever reason. I don't
get how. I don't get how that happens. I don't
(26:48):
get how that happened with you're a head coach. What
are you doing, Jessy? I get you. Hey, you're texting
reporters for stuff, But you have to understand every time
you text, it's the same thing as when you're talking
during a during an interview session, or the camera is
on you. And and look at what can happen. And
now Aaron Rodgers is mad. The one guy that can't
get mad. I gotta get out of here, man, this
(27:09):
place is to I thought I thought I left all
my problems behind in Green Bay. This is even worse. Man.
I gotta go. I gotta get to New England need quarterback.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
But this is.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
Brilliant by him. It's except for guys like being bringing
up the.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Fact that he wrought a lot of this himself.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Hey, Hacket should be your guy there and I'll come. Hey, cool, we.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Gotta find the leak out who did this? Hey, let's
leak out who's said. Let's sign Lazard and Boil and
Cob and all the let's figure out those and hacking
is the offensive coordinator. Let's find that guy. Let's leak
it out. Though we don't need to leak it out
because I'm looking.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
At him right now.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
This is the Jets, This is the Jets. They can't
even lose. Just say you know what, Hey, sorry, yeah, hey,
we rode the lightning for a while and everybody was
paying attention to us, and it's great for the brand.
But now now we stak and we just want to fit. Nope,
we are we. We have decided there is no such
thing as rock bottom. No, let's get to rock bottom.
Let's put some TNT down there. Let's blow Let's blow
(28:05):
the thing up and dig as deeper as possible. Get
me more shovels, Get those real powerful shovels. Get one
of those mythic quest shovels they made for season two. Yeah,
you start digging and digging in let's hit rock bottom
and keep going. At what point do you hang the
five snaps banner? I think you gotta do it tomorrow.
You gotta make Aaron Rodgers happy, you know, hey, Day
twenty that's not gonna make him happy. Twenty twenty three
(28:27):
signed Aaron Rodgers. He's never playing for you, guys, out
and any any time you do something to paint him
as a positive light and make him feel good and
give him good publicity. No, he's up for it.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
That's not a good banner.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
He's completely up for it. Yeah, No, he's up for it.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
It's let's give him a five snap salute.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
That's a good that's a good banner. Aaron Rodgers. Aaron
Rodgers signed, like you know, like like you see when
when team signed somebody in free agency and it's the
picture of them photoshop the new uniform and it just
says signed, Hey, great thing. That's just that's the banner.
Aaron Rodgers, You're signed. Taking me back to the mid
seventies and tops baseball cards when they'd have the giant
(29:01):
traded stand Yeah, or they do the they'd actually do
the paint job because they didn't get a photo of
a guy because they went to print before spring training,
so they'd literally paint the uniform and a logo on at.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
Does it look good?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Yeah? It looks painted not yeah, but it's best we
could do. All right, enough, let's go, boy man, Look,
photoshop really helped a lot of people. That powder blue
of the Rangers doesn't look like the powder blue of
the Blue Jays.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (29:28):

head coaches with somebody in the media and it's I mean,
this is I mean, even the Raiders are going, wow, man,
we couldn't even get that done. That's that special, even
for us. Man, that's react we would we wouldn't even
do that. So we're in Vegas and we're the Raiders
and we couldn't even have that happen. Oh boy, the
Jets are a special kind of tire fire.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
It's all your fault. He picked the wrong team.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I did, I did, I did it's all your fault.
You could have been a Giants fan and you could
have been celebrating the greatness of Tommy DeVito. I know,
instead you got Rogers laughing and trying to make fun
of the organization and calling them out when he created
the whole mess. We got more NFL on the way
because we thought we were gonna get a quarterback Derby
(30:43):
and now we are not. Guess who's keeping his job.
That's straight ahead right here for the tyrech dot Com studios.

you know, appetite for Christmas or it's a very slayer holiday.
You know, we get a classic right there.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Well, but you got to mix it up, right.
Speaker 4 (31:24):

thank him for the work he does for us each
and every night. You know, he keeps you on your toes.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
I know he's into it when we hear it's the
most wonderful time of the year because I know, I
know secretly that is his favorite holiday song because he
played well.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
The horns on that. It just gets you started last years.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
When he's really in it. We hear it like five
times a night. Here it is, that's so true.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
I don't know, Jason.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
I'm kind of diging Jingle Hell this year by Christopher Lee.

(32:17):
We thought we were gonna get a quarterback Derby, but
now a team that is in the hunt has decided
to stay with a guy who has brought energy to
the team. Tommy Cutlets, Tommy DeVito is gonna stay the
quarterback of the New York Giants, despite the fact to
Rod Taylor back at practice he was the startup tole
he got hurt. Tommy Cutletz has come in, Jersey, Cad,
(32:40):
He's come in. He's gotta let this shitty up a
little bit for a couple of games. Forgot about what
he did against the Jets when I wouldn't let him
try to football. But the last couple of games, A,
he's pretty good. A you started a one week in
fantasy was pretty good. So Tommy DeVito's gonna be a
quarterback that everybody's really really happy about this Mike.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Ninety two rating seven TDS, three picks. Why not. Guys
are starting to get help healthy.
Speaker 4 (33:00):
We got reports that Darren Waller is running routes, may
come back for another game.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
See what I did there?
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Yeah, you know, I knew exactly what you're saying. I
was gonna jump on top and I'm like, no, we
can let just let it go because let it breathe
hit it, let it breathe right there. But I mean,
you look at the schedule going forward.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
You got a big game against the surging Green Bay Packers,
but after that a date against the really enigmatic and
maddening New Orleans Saints before you have Philly Rams Philly
to end the season.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Again. I hate the schedule makers.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
They suck, but you at least have an opportunity here
because they're in the hunt right at the back end
of the NFC and if they can get healthy coming
out of the by and maybe a couple of wrinkles
into that offense.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Who the hell knows? Smith? All right, and we all know,
but you know.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
What Tarad Taylor is, Tommy DeVito, it's one of those
you know, hey, is he any good?
Speaker 2 (33:54):
We don't know.
Speaker 4 (33:55):
We got a couple of games that we see some
things we like. We moved the football, we actually put
some points on the board. So why why the hell not?
Why not keep rolling through it?
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (34:05):
I want to tap the brakes on Tommy Cutlet's okay,
I want to tap the breaks just because you're mad
about the Jets and because he's a better story and
he's given them life while we're all singing funeral dirges
for you, don't sell don't sell that story short. Remember
he's also a guy that couldn't keep the starting job
in Syracuse and had to transfer. I know, Syracuse I
(34:29):
had to.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Go to Illinois. Now he's in the.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
NFL undrafted free agent, turn down money from other teams
to be a giant. No, I'm not bitter at all.
Yes I am, but let me just say yes, because
this is a sucking story that a guy that any
other team can just stick their finger in a pot
and a pie and come out all of that. I
gotta I got a plumb. Look, say you stick your
(34:54):
thumb and a pie and he come out with a
plumb right, there's me right, any any other team can
do that. Hey, guess that's what I could. I could,
I could. I could come up with a miracle the
bottom of any socker. Any quarterback I go out there,
look at him play. Except the Jets. Everybody we signed
stinks and they get Brett Ripping today he immediately is
the best quarterback on the roster. No, yes, I am bitter,
and it pisses me off to Tommy Devitos this guy.
(35:16):
But let's tap the breaks. The guy's having a moment. Okay,
he's an undrafted free agent for a reason. Not everybody
suddenly has brought party.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
He's having him.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
It's kind of like his own little Minshew Mania or
when Mark Sanchez had those couple of big games for
the Eagles back in twenty fourteen. He's having a moment.
It's nice. Is this gonna sustain? I hope not. Is
this gonna sustain? That's the big thing. But let's tap
the brakes a little bit on Tommy Kyley. He's a
fun story. Tommy's a fun dude. They're gonna we're winning.
(35:46):
We're four and eight. Everybody thinks we're still We're still
in it. We'll trade Daniel Jones at the end of
this year. We got Tommy DeVito. It's pretty good. We'll
have Danny DeVito come to games and throw out the
first ball of some kind. We'll have them throwing a
ball with each other. It's gonna be great. We got
the Vito's all over. We'll have Carla Devino come out
and do it a Paradise by the dashboard light song.
I'm out of the Vetos after this. We got Tommy,
(36:06):
we got Danny, we got Caller, we had all of
the Vitos. But tap the brakes. He's having a moment.
That's what's happening.
Speaker 4 (36:13):
Well, I would say this one, we don't know two.
It's it's it's a fun story. And just because you're
mad one because he left Syracuse.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
Two and embarrassing the Jets he left Syracuse. And because
he's got those two.
Speaker 4 (36:27):
I mean you know that that's it's not your fault, buddy,
It's not a crime perpetrated against you.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
But it But but it feels like it feels like
it feels like everybody's ganging.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Up on it.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
It feels like it's again his holiday holiday, holiday season.
I feel I feel like this is all for me.
It's like my own personal I'm like I'm the Truman
Show of this story right here. It's all against you, Jason,
all against you. Tommy Cuttins is coming, gonna bring the
They're gonna win nine in a row and make the
playoffs a nine to eight and Tommy Cutlets is great.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
Look Philadelphia's showing cracks man. It's time o man. I
mean you got guys calling for quarterback changes there exit.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
How about a Frescos swollen dome coming up next?
Speaker 2 (37:07):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (37:08):
