up Tuesday night. I'll be outthere with Julie Donaldson sitting down with coach
Ron for about an hour and checkCommanders hopefully post victory in Seattle. We'll
see what happens. And I'm surethe phones are gonna work perfectly today today.
I was trying to explain it toa friend of mine last night.
He's like, how's going. I'mlike, that's great, man, I
said, got an issue with ourstudio phones where there's like a delay,

(02:49):
and the delay is like if Isay hello, it takes about two three
seconds for that to get to theperson on the phone and they say hi,
and it takes about two three secondsfor that to get back to best
way to describe it is like whenyou watch those reporters on location in like
Israel or Afghanistan, and you seethe anchor go tell us how it is
on the front lines, and youwatch the guy just stand there for six

(03:10):
seconds until the audio hits him.Well, thanks, Steve, it's up.
Exactly what it's like on the phone'shere. Yeah, they've been trying
to fix it for and it's justour studio, it's not the rest of
it. Send us a sample.Yeah, we've sent about fourteen samples.
But they are working on it,so hopefully we'll get that taken care of
soon. Because you know, whenyou get that delay in there, it's

(03:30):
like you think the other person stoptalking, so you start talking and and
then you just end up talking allover each other. It's just a mess.
I see it all the time onnews, right when when somebody's on
the other side of the world.But when you're sending a video signal,
from the other side of the world. That makes sense. It's kind of
probably inevitable. But when you're downthe street in rock Yeah, but when

(03:53):
dude's calling from across the street.Speaking of across the street, huge,
think to Duncan on us this morning, because they saved my life. I
came in on the coffee machine wasnot working. I was taking bets with
myself whether or not you were goingto make it back before the show started.
Well, disserally in the morning,you can get across Rockville Pike,
you know, without trying to playfrog or it's not bad, right,

(04:16):
just walk over illegally, I guessjaywalking technically, but there's nobody out,
you know, so it was prettyeasy to sip over there. But the
guy was like they had one guybehind the counter. God bless him man,
because he was like he would takean order and then try to come
back to making the coffee and thentake an order trying to get and so
I was just like, come on, dude, was it busy, not
terribly, probably five or six people. Duncan has my favorite of all coffee.

(04:40):
I love no just they're coffee ingeneral, oh, in general,
Duncan coffee. Now which is weirdpeople. It's one of my favorites too,
Like I've been drinking it for youknow. Ever, I lived in
New England for years and you know, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia for years, and
Duncan's are just like there's one.There will literally be in like you take
like two blocks and there will befour of them, one on each corner.

(05:04):
Like, well, we'll put oneon this corner because kind of a
pain in the ass to turn intothat one, so let's make it easier
and put one right across the street. They're everywhere, But yeah, I
agree, but people are kind ofpolarized on that. I know a lot
of people are like, oh,gross, how can you drink that?
I'm like, it's fantastic. Whatare you talking about? Those are the
same people who don't like pineapple ontheir pizza. Uh careful anyway, So

(05:28):
the coffee machine broke this morning.I walked in and I now realize it
was like this impending sense of doom. I kind of can relate to anyone
that's experienced a tragedy in their lifebecause I felt that come over me and
I was like, Wow, thismust be what it's like to, you
know, have your mom die orsomething. Dude. I was like,
is the machine just down or isit out of water? What stuff?

(05:50):
I don't know. It says cleanmachine, and it says refill this,
and I just kept hitting it.It wouldn't go. It's just like,
all right, clearly need some sortof maintenance. And speaking of moms,
that's where you get this from.It's her fault. She's the one that's
got me hooked on coffee. She'sworse than me. She can drink it
all in your bottle. Oh dude, Well I did start drinking it young,

(06:12):
yeah, because I'd always like,can I have a cup of coffee?
But she's the kind of person thatcan drink like a pot of coffee
at nine o'clock at night and goto bed at ten And I'm like,
how do you do that? Ihave a cup after eleven? M right,
for the next three days? Allright, Well it is six twelve.
We are underway on a Friday,and happy Friday to you. It

(06:32):
is Big one hundred Washington's Classic Rock, Jackson Rocks DC. Big one hundred
Washington's Classic Rock, Washington's Classic Rock. It's Big one hundred Journey and Separate
Ways. Yeah, this Duncan hitsthe spot, Buddy, This was the
best decision I've made all day.I know it's early, but the best

(06:55):
decision I've made yet this morning.And it just took one little hop across
the street. I'm impressed. Hey, Big one hundred, what's up,
Crash, how are you come?What's up? Not much? Hey?
He was just talking about dunkin donuts. Just made me think about Adam scammers.
See it. He was talking about, uh, given directions up in
New Hampshire. If you go twodunkin donuts up and make it left and
got three more dunking donuts, takerock. That's dude, You have no

(07:17):
idea. That is so dead onthere in New England. There. I
lived in Manchester, New Hampshire fora while and Jesus cross across the street.
Yeah you know then, you knowthen, and he's not lying.
They they can literally be right acrossthe street from each other and they both
flourish. It's insane, dueling Duncan. Yeah, right on, man,

(07:40):
Well, thanks for calling. Goget yourself a Duncan and enjoy your Friday.
You do the same. Thanks.Y Washington's classic Crockets Pig one hundred
Guns and Roses and sweetsheld mind.So Guns Roses not too long ago.
Was not expecting much. Just figured, eh, Axel's getting old, it's
gonna sound old. Dude. Hekilled it. I still got it,

(08:03):
man. He just went through likea phase where he was yeah, all
of this game and then he cameback. Let's be honest, he went
through a phase where he sucked fortwenty five years. Yeah, And I
think that's why I wasn't expecting much. And then I went to the show
and was like, you know,I didn't really care. I was like,
well, I'm still gonna see gunsof Roses even if his voice isn't
up to it. That's you know. It's like when you'd go see Ozzy

(08:24):
even though he was getting older andhe blew me away. Dude, I
was like, holy crapy still gotit. So U And I think there
weren't they just recently. They justrecently played somewhere for some event they did.
They just played that big event inCalifornia. I mean, if that's

(08:45):
what it was, it might bePower Trip. I mean that was that
was the one that had like onlyheadliners. You had GMR. That's when
Ozzie was supposed to play but hadto back out us the priest that took
over for him. But yeah,that event, and then you know they're
doing their tour and this is realGENR. This is not this is Slash

(09:05):
is the good stuff, and nothingagainst Buckethead. He's a fantastic guitar player
with a weird name, but he'sgood. But he's not Slash. He's
not Slash. We were talking aboutcoffee this morning, and it's funny.
I pulled up this survey this morningand I was like, yeah, I
kind of agree with this. Theydid a blind taste test to find out

(09:26):
that about half of people in thecountry are drinking a coffee they think they
like, but they actually prefer somethingelse interesting. So they say, what
it is is a lot of peoplethink, well, I love dark roast,
or I love this bold espresso roast, right, and then when they
give him a blind taste test,it turns out their favorite is actually the
light roast, right, So theydidn't know what they like. And that's

(09:50):
about half the people five thousand coffeedrinkers pulled to see what they like,
and about half the people like adifferent roast than what they're drinking. And
this actually happened to me. Iwas convinced for years that my favorite was
like I want a bold dark roast, I want to espresso, I want,
you know. And I drink itand it's fine, it's great.

(10:11):
And then one day I accidentally boughtthe wrong bag of coffee. You know.
I think it was Starbucks and Ithink it was their blonde something blonde.
I don't know. I can seethe bag in my head, but
it was a super light roast,and I was like, oh crap,
and I was all bombed and Ibought the wrong one. Should I take
it back and screw it? I'lldrink it awesome coffee, awesome, And

(10:33):
I, holy crap, didn't drinkingthe wrong one. I've been drinking this
other stuff because I just assumed,you know, I'm a man, I
must like bold coffee. I usedto do the same thing. I used
to get dark roast and then outone day and so I got the medium
and liked it much better. Andit's better. Yeah, yes, And
now I'm taste it more. I'mI'm all on board, yet not as

(10:54):
bitter. That's the thing. I'mall on board on the light roast now.
And here's the thing I used todrink coffee straight black, right,
And then I started this, youknow, twenty thirty years ago, started
drinking the bold and the espresso,and I always had to put like a
splash of cream in it to killthat bitterness. Yeah, and then all
of a sudden, I'm like,man, I guess I drink cream in
my coffee. Now It's like no, I was masking the taste of a

(11:16):
coffee I didn't like so light roast, telling you people switch it up,
see what you think. Here's astory. For years, whenever I would
go to a nice restaurant, likeif it was a nicer place, I
would order veal, always get veal, like veal. Well, that was
the thing, Like that was justwhat I would get, And I would

(11:39):
always complain about it. Yeah,Like to the people I was with,
I would be like, this vealis not good. You know, I
don't like this deel, this restaurant. I can't believe that this is such
an expensive, fancy restaurant because theirveal sucks. I hate this place.
I guess you hate veal. Well, someone pointed out to me at some
point, it's like you ever thinkthat maybe you just don't like veal?

(12:00):
Right, and I'm like that,what turns out that was the problem?
You don't like veal? Had youever had a good one? No?
Was there at any point where youthought, Okay, I might like veal.
No, No, you're just trying. I don't know why that was
my go to thing. It's verytrying to do the adult thing. My
best friend, his dad, uhalright, p passed away years ago,

(12:20):
but he used to always tell us. We'd go someplace and maybe it was
like, you know, it's nota dive bar, put it that way,
and we'd be like, take aMiller light, I'll take a beer
or whatever. He's like, you, guys, you need you need an
adult drink. What do you meanan adult drink? He's like, there
are going to be times in yourlife where you're going to a party or
a cocktail party or something that's alittle more upscale. He's like, you

(12:41):
don't order a draft beer. We'relike not sure, you know. He's
like no, He's like, decidewhat your adult drink is and make that
your adult drink. Yeah, right. I think my buddy went with like
a Manhattan or something, and Iwas like, I don't know. Jen
and Todd, Right, right,and I've been drinking them for like twenty

(13:03):
years now. Gen and Tonic that'smy adult drink. If it's not a
beer or wine, Gen and Tonic, Agatonic and who knows. I don't
even know if I like Genic.It's just the one I get. I
do like a good bourbon, butI have I have to be in the
mood, you know what I mean. I have to be in the mood.
I love Bourbon, I love Gin. I just love Booze. I

(13:24):
think I do love Gen. Ithink I like Jen. I mean I've
been drinking it for years. Ienjoy it. There's a gen. I
think the gen is called Battlefield.I think that's the name of it.
It's made in manassas good. Itis fantastic. My favorite Gin on planet
Earth, Hendrix. With that littlebit of cucumber flavor to it. I
got it. I'd probably say fifty. It was when it first came out.

(13:46):
My brother bought me a bottle forChristmas and I'm like, what is
this? Cucumber infuse says and Idrank. I was like, Oh,
this changed my life. Yeah,this is yeah. I don't drink anything
else now. If they if theydon't have Hendrix, but every but he
has Hendricks Bombay Sapphire. Probably Ihave to try that local. What's it
called again, I think it's calledbattlefield to try that out, unless you're

(14:07):
listening battlefield, you want me totry it out for you here on the
air. You could drop a bottlebuy wouldn't come playing case when I when
I worked in Boston decades ago,I used to always have a Jim Cook
on the air. I worked atthe same station, or a boss worked
at he worked there after I did, and we both did mornings there.

(14:31):
And I used to have Jim Cookfrom Sam Adams on the air like once
a month. Just he's a hilariousdude. He's a great interview and he
always brings in some new beer foryou to sample. So it's always an
experience, right, He's like,guess what I got for you guys today.
And then you know when they didback in two thousand when they did
the Millennium, Yeah, I gota thousand bucks a bottle. He brought

(14:52):
one and we cracked it and drankit on the air. Oh, it's
amazing. But the best part,the best part is every time we had
him on the air, when wegot home that day there'd be like four
or five cases of beer sitting onour porch. Yeah. The very first
time we interviewed to him, he'slike, I need all your addresses.
We're like why, I'm just gonnasend you a little something. We're like
okay, And then forever after that, I look forward to it to be

(15:16):
like, oh, Jim's coming onthe other day, which means when I
get home this afternoon, there's gonnabe beer, and I don't I guess
he would send one of his deliverytrucks out and they'd hit all our houses
and it wasn't he didn't just leavea case. It was like four or
five cases. You'd walk up toyour house. Yes, that's great,
that's nice. That's a very coolthing to do. Yeah, he was

Yeah, there you go. It'stime for things I know that you don't,
and I know it's Friday and tomorrowis Saturday. Here you go.
Look at that. Peanut butter andDutch is called pindacas or peanut cheese because

(18:21):
the word butter is only supposed tobe used with products that actually contain butter.
Think about it. That's really agross name. Peanut butter. It
doesn't sound like something you want toput in your mouth, right, well
in you know, peanut cheese isn'tany better peanuts if they're trying to play
that card. Yeah, And it'slike if you've got to rule this says
you can only use the word butterand things that actually contain real butter.

(18:45):
Peanut butter does not contain cheese.So why you're saying peanut cheese? How
about peanuts spread? Wouldn't that bethe easy thing to do? Duffel bags
are named after a town in Belgiumcalled Duffel. That's where the fabric for
the bags originally came from. Howabout that Public schools in England are the

(19:06):
equivalent of private schools in the US. It's a school you have to pay
for for public schools. Our publicschools are called state schools over there.
It's just a play on words.In the UK, if it's a state
school, it's a public school,it would be like our public schools.
If they call it a public school, it would be like our private school.

(19:29):
Very confusing. But there's not likea third one. It's just those
two rights. Well, university,It's like peanut cheese doesn't make any sense,
right. There's only one planet thatis not named after a Roman god.
Or Goddess Earth. Correct, lookat that correct. The tradition of

(19:52):
presidents wearing an American flag pin startedbecause of Robert Redford nineteen seventy two,
a movie called The Candidate. Hewore one in the movie, and Nixon's
chief of staff saw it and hadNixon start wearing one. And that's how
it started. Isn't that crazy?Learn this week? Nixon is responsible for

(20:14):
a lot of stuff. H Yeah, you know Pandas I mean, Nixon
invented pandas. He had good stuff, bad stuff, good old Nixon.
Did you ever watch the movie onhim? No, it was I think
it was just called Nixon, ohwith with Hannibal Lecter. Yeah, I

(20:36):

since I watched it. But yeah, did anybody get their free chicken sandwiches

Good morning, Washington's classic rockets,Big one hundred. I haven't heard
that song in forever. Love itBlondie. She was smoking hot when she
was young. Oh Lord, havemercy. Do you remember was the video
that they used to play ad nauseumon MTV? Was it rapture, rapture,

(21:44):
rapture? Yeah, it was arapture, was rapture? Yeah?
She was. She was something else. Man. I saw a picture the
other day it was her. Excuseme, it was her Jone Jet and
lead A Ford, all at aboutlike twenty one years old, and you're
like, damn man, they wereall like, you know, rock stars,
man. Yeah, I like therock girls. Well, Lead and

(22:07):
Joan Joe were in the Runaways atthe time. I like the give me
a girl half covered in tattoos beautiful. That's a funny thing because that's super
polarizing too. You get people thatare like, no, tattoos, tattoos
on a girl are terrible, andI'm the complete opposite. I especially like
them on their foreheads. If it'smy name, No, I like tattoos.

(22:29):
I like your girl tattoos, littlelittle attitude. But if they say
about half of half the men outthere do not like it. I saw
a quote from Kim Kardashian one time, and I cannot believe, matter of
fact, just slap me now thatI'm gonna quote a Kardashian on this show,
right, feel free to just punchme in the mouth. She said,

(22:51):
somebody asked her about tattoos, andit's a good quote, though,
she said, I'm not putting abumper sticker on a Bentley. Oh my
god. So I wanted to talkabout I know, I know, I
don't. That was you know,the Kardashians. When that first started,

(23:11):
that was like to me, Iwas like, well, here's the downfall
of civilization right here in front ofher eyes. I think the thing I
hate more than her right now,though, is the fact that I hate
myself because I am going to stealthat quote. It's a good quote and
use it as my own. Evena broken clock is right twice a day.
Right doesn't mean you know, shecan be a Kardashian, but once

(23:33):
in a blue moon something brilliant mightcome out of her mouth. I mean,
it's just as you know, lawsof nature. I wanted to talk
about this this morning because I reada story about It was a dumb story,
but it was about a company thatmakes wedding cakes, birthday cakes,
cake Maker, and they use apiece of plastic in the cake that keeps

(23:55):
the cake upright while it's being transportedright so it doesn't fall apart or slide
offer. But they have to puta warning on the box that says,
do not use this cake for smashingin someone's face, basically because they say,
you know the traditional when people getmarried and they take a chunk of
the cake and rub it in theother person's face, because there's a piece
of plastic in here, and youcould injure somebody if you'd like, pick

(24:18):
this cake up and hit somebody inthe face with it. I'm like,
it got me thinking about like allthe stupid warnings and I started walking around
my place and I think it wason the iron and I still have the
box because it's like a new iron. It was like, do not wrap
cord around neck. I'm like inthis like lawsuit happy country filled with let's

(24:41):
face it, there's a lot ofidiots and the fact that they have to
put this stuff, these warnings,these ridiculous warnings on everything, because you
know, for example, there's oneon a chainsaw that says do not hold
wrong end of chainsaw, and it'slike, you, you know what if
they don't put that warning on there, someone will do it and Billy Bob

(25:03):
grabs the wrong end of the chainsaw. Why it's running. He'll say,
well, there's no warning and he'llsue, and so I started digging into
him and just looking for like thestupidest warning some things. Mm hmm.
Here's a few of my favorites.On a jet ski. A jet ski
near the fuel tank, never usea lighter or a match to check the
fuel level. I know someone whodid that, really. I know a

(25:26):
guy who did that really back inmy hometown. Like he was checking to
see if he had gas in hisbig old was special little bit okay,
but like he put a match intothe gas tank there was gas in it,
and that is that is yeah,unreal but perfect example of like there

(25:49):
is somebody out there warning label onto do this to where we have to
put a warning label on it.But I think it just gets ridiculous.
Here's one on a hair dryer,do not use while sleeping. What one
hundred bucks says. Somebody's using itto like warm the blankets or like turning
it on and putting you know whatI mean, blanket on the genus on

(26:12):
a dozen eggs product may contain eggs. If you're allergic to eggs, they
gotta put it on there. Uhwow, this I'm looking at a few

(26:34):
more of these and they're just absolutelyridiculous. And my kids scooter has a
warning on it that says, warning, this product moves when used. Right.
Here's a this is on like awhat do you call them? Not
a staple remover, but like ohyou know the things they they used to

(26:56):
they used to promotional companies would sendthem out. You'd use them to cut
the plastic off a CD and hadthat tiny little razor blade in there.
You ever see him goes on theedge of a seat and go and just
slide it down and it cuts thecuts the plastic off like a box knife
kind of, but the razor bladepart of it's hidden, so it's it's
fairly safe. But some warning onone of those, it's like, these

(27:17):
blades are extremely sharp. We recommendsafety goggles. What safety goggles to use
a razor blade? I guess yeah, it's It is absolutely ridiculous. And
I promise you this, if youlike, just walk around your house right
now and just start looking at thewarning labels on stuff, you'll be blown
away. You'll be blown away byhow stupid some of them are just crazy.

(27:41):
We've got some tickets to give awaycoming off at seven point thirty,
and I say giveaway because today isthe day we do give them away Commanders
Cowboys home game club level seats sixthor seventh when they determine the date,
but it'll be the sixth or seventhof January, and we're gonna give those
away with the big word of theweek. So I have your final letter

(28:02):
coming up at seven thirty this morning. Stay tuned right seven nineteen. It's
Big one hundred, Washington's Classic RocketsBig one hundred. There's the scorpions and
rocket like a hurricane coming up.Gonna give you the final letter for the
big word of the week and yourshot to score tickets for the Commander's Cowboys
game. Those are club level seatsfor home game FedEx Field. The beginning
of January, I found the wewere talking about crazy stupid warning labels,

(28:26):
and I found the one you hadbrought up on a razor scooter. It's
this, this product moves when he'sused. Product moves, And so as
I go, I go down therabbit hole and I find a bunch more.
There's one on a on a smalltractor. Label just says avoid death.

(28:49):
Now it does have a little pictureof a guy falling out of the
tractor, but the warning label saysavoid death. There's one on a washing
machine. Now remember, for thesewarnings to exist, some moron in the
past in our soo happy country hadto have done this, or the company

(29:15):
thought there is somebody just stupid enoughto do this, we better put a
label on it. On a washingmachine, do not put a person in
this washer. On a toilet bowl, cleaning brush, do not use orally.
Yeah. Right, So here's oneof a dremal you know what a
dremal is, right right, tool, and it says not to be used

(29:38):
or dental procedures. And then thisone is hilarious. This is a hilton
Head hotel and they have these coollittle napkins and on the napkins at the
at the you know, at thebar, they have a map of hilton
Head, Right, those little cocktailnappins. They have a warning on the
back that says not to be usedfor navigation. I I don't get it

(30:08):
on a curling iron for external useonly? So what did somebody do to
cause some problems? As soon asyou said curly and iron, I said,
I bet I know what this onesays. This is an interesting one
and it would fall under things Iknow too, because I did not know
this. On a teflon pan Frynepan, please keep pet birds out of

(30:34):
the kitchen when using this product,You're like, what the hell? Apparently
teflon potentially gives off fumes that areharmful to birds. I never knew that.
This is one of my favorites.On a Halloween costume of Superman,
this costume does not enable flight orsuper Strength. I told you about when

(30:59):
I saw in an iron that saidsomething about not wrapping the corridor round your
neck. Yeah, but as akid, I think I did have that
thought though about the Superman costumes.I benef I put this on. I
could jump off the roof, Ido believe. But if you're a kid,
you're not reading warning labels. Thatdidn't happen to me though on an
iron, do not iron clothes onbody? Why this has to be one

(31:23):
of my all time favorites. Well, there's a tie for all time favorite
on the old iPod shuffle, whichwas the really small one. Do not
eat and it doesn't look like amint. And then finally this one takes
the cake. It's on my doll. We all know what my doll is

(31:44):
for. Minstrel cramps, cramps,bloating, fatigue, backache, and headache.
To be exact, on a boxof mine doll, ask a doctor
before use if you have difficulty urinatingdue to an enlarged prostate. I got
nothing to add to that. That'sI've got dad, I've got nothing,

it's also the birthday of the UnitedStates Marine Corps sim for five, Happy
birthday, And coming up here injust a few minutes, Emmanuel Forbes is

(34:43):
gonna be on the program. ManuelForbes man interesting cat. You know,
he was drafted first round as ahell of a college player. Hell of
a college player. He holds acouple of records. One of them like
most interceptions returned for touchdowns when hewas in college in Mississippi, Mississippi.
And then he was drafted first andit came out pretty hot, and then
kind of had a little bit ofa slump and got benched for a little

(35:06):
bit. Right after that. Ithink it was a game against the Eagles
and he was got burned by AJBrown. But it's like nobody can cover
AJ Brown, nobody, And evenif you had him covered like glue,
he would just stick one hand upin the air and catch it with one
hand. And I don't wish AJBrown or DJ Moore from the Bears on

(35:27):
my worst enemies. Those are tworeally tough guys to cover. But he
came back and came back with avengeance. Man he did. He posted
on his Instagram account before the gamejust said I'm back. And he came
back and he was targeted seven times. I think his corner back grating was
like in the nineties mid nineties,just great. And he came back it.
They targeted him about seven times,he only allowed two receptions in twelve

(35:51):
yards. So hopefully he's back.We'll find out this weekend because Seattle,
you're looking at Metcalf and locket another. Some good receivers out there, man,
good receivers. So we'll we'll takecare some quick business here and coming
up just around the corner, wewill have that chat with the Emmanuel Forbes
and then Florida man coming up thismorning eight thirty Dennis Glasgow sports on tap.

(36:15):
That's coming up a little bit later. Am I forgetting anything after nine
shot to one one thousand bucks?There you go cash on command and that's
gonna run through next week and thenthat's the end of it next Friday,
all right. So we'll give youthat keyword just after nine o'clock and then
you enter that at wbig dot comand that'll be your chance to win a
one thousand bucks. Jackson's echo comingaway in the nine o'clock hour as well.

(36:37):
Seven fifty three. It's Big onehundred. Good morning, Washington's classic
rock. It is Big one hundredCommanders taken on the Seahawks this weekend.
He's back and form looked great againstthe Patriots, and we have him on
the line. Emmanuel Forbes from yourWashington Commanders, Welcome to the show.
Hey, nice talk to you again. How you doing, buddy, I'm

(36:59):
good? Are you good? Goodman? Guess who's back that good game?
I saw your Instagram post uh beforefor the Patriots game. I love
it is that I'm bad. That'sawesome. Man. Look man, I
I enjoy watching you play. You'reone of my favorite players on the team.
You ball down in college, holdlike the FBS record for most interceptions

(37:20):
return for a touchdown. First rounddraft pick. What's it like making the
jump from college ball to to proball. That's a big jump, honestly,
but it was a it was ayou know, it's experience learning,
still learning to this day, butI'm getting the hang of it. Yeah,
it's and it's is it just theguys are just a step quicker,
is it? I want to saythey just a step quicker. It's just

(37:43):
it's a lot a lot of goingon, a lot of things, different
things going on, and there's alot of guy that's really good at what
they at their job. So thingslike that, right right, Well,
you had a great game against thePatriots. If I'm looking at my numbers
correctly. I think they targeted youlike seven times, but you only allowed
to twelve yards, which is afantastic game. How to feel to get

(38:04):
out there and play so well again? I felt good, you know,
just go out there and get mygroove back and I got to play back.
Yeah, well you had because youhad a little bit of a slump
there. You had. You hada tough couple of weeks. I mean
you had one week against stay J. Brown, next week against DJ Moore.
The two receivers I would not work, you know, uh, push

(38:25):
on my worst enemies, two ofthe toughest guys in the league to cover.
What was it like kind of takinga step back and watching them before
he got back out there and startedagain. Oh you know, of course,
I know that was gonna happen soonor later in my career. I'm
glad it happened early. But itwas a learning Exparis is going out there
knowing that I gotta go out thereand perform no matter what the situation is

(38:45):
and make plays. Honestly, that'smy job. So once I sat back
and just realized and just God notedeverything and came out got my first start
and had a good game. Yeah, fantastic. So coming up this weekend
against Seattle, you're going to bepreparing for, you know, guys like
Calf and lock It. Do youwhen you go into a game, do
you prepare any differently for like differentreceivers or is it all just the same

(39:07):
game plan, that's all the samegame play. Honest, you just were
by myself. Of course, thoseguys are good at the job, but
it's at the end of the day, I got to make sure I'm just
doing my job right and knowing myassignment much and more to what they're doing
right. Right. So I wastalking to my son. He's fourteen.
He plays corner for his team,and a couple of weeks ago he got

(39:29):
beat and you know, they scoredon him, and he was really,
really, really down for the entireday, and I kept trying to tell
him. I was like, dude, even the best in the world are
going to get beat sometime. It'spart of the game, you know.
And what would you tell to theselike young and up and coming players that
you know, I guess, howto keep your head on straight after like

(39:51):
maybe a bad player getting getting beaton play and then getting out to the
next play and making sure it doesn'thappen again. You know, when I
go by the four second rule,I can harp on it for four seconds,
then after that I move on.So you know, like you can
get beat on a play one play, then next exact play, can catch
a game, win a pick,or do some things like that game when
a pass work up. So justyou got to learn how to play the

(40:13):
next play and just move on,right. I like that the four second
rule was steal that from you.You're allowed to be angry about it for
four seconds. Yeah, get yourscreens and cousin b whatever you do out
and you know, happy day.Move on. Yeah, exactly. Well,
I'll tell you one one of theI can tell you the exact day
that that I was very very impressedwatching you play was actually the game against

(40:37):
the Eagles and you were upset,I think after a play where A J.
Brown you know, uh, yougotta move on you And I saw
the camera went to you on thesideline and you were you were visibly upset,
you were visibly angry, and thatto me, I was like,
I was like, I like thisguy, he cares. This is the
guy that's that cares that much.He's pissed off, and that's when I

(40:58):
went, I went, this guy'sgoing would be good. Yeah, I
was, you know, upset,but the next drive had to go out
there and continue to play and domy job. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
exactly. That's awesome. Well,it seems like everything's coming together.
Man. You guys are starting toput together complete games. I saw you
know, John Johnson is back infor Norman Sam. How is you know,

(41:20):
breaking season records already and uh,and everything's kind of coming together.
How do you guys feel going intothe last stretch. Oh, we were
real confident and finishing in the lasthalf of the season, and you know
we're trying to probably for the playoff, playoff spy and just keep winning games.
We've got to take a one weekat a time. You're real confident
and you know we're we're going intoevery game confident that we can win.

(41:43):
That's awesome. I wish you guysthe best of luck against Seattle this weekend.
I'm very confident that you guys aregoing to pull it out and uh
again, man, enjoy watching youplay. Have a great game this weekend,
and hopefully we'll talk to you again. Soon, all right, Yeah,
there sounds good. All right man, We'll have a great day you
too. That's Emmanuel Forbes from yourWashington Commanders, and of course Commander's taken

(42:05):
on the Seahawks. Uh. Thisweekend conversation with a manual brought to you
by BET three six y five.It's never ordinary and it's on Big one
hundred Washington's Classic Rock, Big RockMornings with Jackson on Washington's Classic Rock.
Big Washington's Classic Rock is Big onehundred. Don't still believe in Journey?

(42:27):
Jackson Here, Big Rock Mornings,eight twenty nine. Good morning to you.
It's time for Florida Man. FloridaMan. Oh boy, I can't
decide this morning, so I'm gonnagive you a couple, is that all
right? Either? Short? Sweet, to the point. I never get
enough Florida Man. I can neverget enough Florida Man. Florida Man is
fined five hundred dollars for telling thecops his name was Ben Dover. He

(42:59):
found himself with an obstruction charge.He was fined five hundred bucks after he
gave the name Ben Dover when thepolice asked for his identification. The case
starting when they were trying to removehim from a park, and he apparently
it escalated quickly. He refused theirorders, flipped him off and ran after

(43:20):
giving the name Bendover, and theycaught him. They find him five hundred
bucks. It's fantastic. Here's anotherone. I got three of them for
you. I'm telling you, man, they're so good. I got nowhere
to be. A Florida man walkedinto a bank and asked the tailler for
eleven hundred bucks. She said,sure, just needs your debit card.

(43:44):
He said no, this is arobbery and stuck his hands into his waistband.
The teller believes he did not havea weapon whatsoever, but he kept
his hand in his waistband. Shecomplied handed him two thousand dollars. Was
not happy about the amount. Hesaid he had only asked for eleven hundred

(44:05):
and wanted her to count him outeleven one hundred dollars bills, so she
took nine hundred of it back andgave him eleven hundred, and he left
without another word being exchanged. I'mgonnassume it that only robbery ever wear.
Something got changed where he yeah right, he wanted less money, and finally,
Florida man brings his child with himduring crimes to quote toughen him up.

(44:31):
Yeah, a Florida man has committeda series of crimes and wanted to
toughen up his eight year old sothat his child would not become quote saw
did you hear that? Looks howwe're doing. Yeah. From facing charges
of burglary of an occupied dwelling andgrand theft motor vehicle. And then they

(44:52):
threw on the three counts of contributingdelinquency of a minor into it toughing him
up addition to tampering with evidence.That story was like he took him,
took his kid with him to toughhim up. And I laughed, and
then I said the eight year old, like, oh my god, this
guy his eight year old to getsoft. We're steal in the car.

(45:16):
All right, dude, you're rightshotgun. Dennis Glasgow coming up in sports

Yeah, yeah, I pitch easycrazy. It is time for sports

(47:05):
on tap, Sports on top onBig one hundred. All right, all
right, Caps on the road atthe Devils tonight, the one game above
five hundred, so they're playing alittle bit better lately. We had the
Wizards in town to Capitol One.They did a home and home with the
Hornets, so they'll be hosting downat seven tip at Capital One. And
of course the game we all careabout Commanders and Seahawks Sunday for twenty five.

(47:28):
Right here on Big one hundred iskickoff time. And I'm telling you
there's on so many levels I'm lookingforward to this game. Not only because
we've won now and we and we'veshown we can win after those trades.
Is that this is a huge gameof epic proportions. You're playing an NFC
opponent. Yep, it's a bigroad game. You can get to five
hundred. You can at least solidifythe second half of the season that you

(47:52):
might get a postseason because a wildcard. If they drop a game here,
it's going to be top. Soit's almost we're in must win territory
for the few weeks. But everybodyfor the most part is pretty damn healthy.
And Sam Howell is rocking and rollingright now. Center is yeah,
they put their center on. Uhyeah, Ricky Stromberg, he's on IR
now for the next four games.You know, I don't know the backup.

(48:15):
I do not know the backup neither. A buddy of mine asked me
last night and I was like,you know what, I don't know.
I'll tell you one thing about Seattlebecause I've watched the team for years.
This team gives up a ton ofpassing yardage. And last week, even
though they have a good run defense, they got scorched for almost three hundred
yards on the ground by Baltimore.Wow. So they're in rough and they're
really banged up. I was lookingat the injury report. There's a lot

(48:37):
of guys that haven't practiced this weekfor Seattle, saying Dodson and McLaurin are
gonna have big games. Wouldn't thatbe nice? Definitely? And you know
what, Seattle can't cover tight end, So I see Logan Thomas actually having
a big game. Yeah, I'mlooking forward to it. I think this
is gonna be kind of a kickoffright here on Big one hundred and the
I heard out that's a West Coastand uh, I can see like at

(49:00):
twenty four twenty one Commander's victory here, it's gonna be close. Uh,
they're gonna cover the spread. They'reright now, they're favorite, Seattle's favored
by six points. So you're stilltelling me this is a good bet.
It's a good bet, all right, Yeah, your friendly betting app And
I'm gonna I'm gonna do a littlejuice on the Commanders this week, and
I think they're gonna win outright,but they're gonna definitely cover the six points,

(49:22):
all right. Yeah, I loveit. All right, guys,
maybe I'll make both bets like thator some of that morning DJ money going
to proper use you like my whiteboard. I love this whiteboard that was my
compromise. This is uh, thisis high tech. That was my compromise.
I said I wanted a whiteboard,and everybody's like, you can't hang
anything on the wall. I'm like, why why I want a whiteboard?

(49:42):
I want I want to be ableto see things that I want to talk
about. And uh, you know, I'm saying no, no, no.
So I got one that that sitson the counter. Was that an
imitation of our fearless leader? Thatthat sounded just like you what? It's
kind of a combination of all ofthem, right, you put them together.
It's like the mushmouth dude from FatAlbert. Sure, I got it

(50:04):
right? Do you remember? Well? Listen, I do. I'm old
enough to remember that. Well,listen. Way to give it to the
man by getting a whiteboard in here. Nonetheless, I'm gonna hang it on
the wall. Good, you should, I'm good. I want to see
what happens. I'm going to goingto thank you to this, all right,
guys, have a good week toman. It is Washington's classic Rockets,
Big one hundred cash on command comingup just after nine o'clock. Your
shot at one thousand dollars. Jackson'secho in the nine o'clock hour as well

(50:27):
