Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
We are live in the GT Toys studio. That's Toys
with a Z.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Guy's looking around like he's confused. To be fuddled, you
just know why we're not sitting outside of a Stewart
somewhere freezing our asses off.
Speaker 4 (00:15):
I can't make this up.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
It's our first show in studio on a Friday since
June twenty eighth, and I'm pretty.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Sure everything makes sense that now I understand everything.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Pretty sure half that intro got cut, Like what do
I do with the button? June twenty eighth, We back
credit to our sales team, credits of the great business across.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
That's why the.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Sales teams been taking shots that used to that got
here this morning. You've been you passive, aggressively been telling
them to get us back out live.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
That's what you've been doing.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Because even the sweetest one, Danielle comes up to me
and goes, hey, let your partner know his Brady T
shirt way too tight, and like walked out. I was like, wow,
She's like it's nice, you know what.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I've accepted it because she gave me the roasting and
I realized it's not so much me in the shirt,
it's her feelings for Gizelle before I was insulted. She
went on a rant about Giselle. She's like, she doesn't
get it. Tom Brady cheated her like dirt and she
went and did her own thing slay queen, and you're
out here supporting Brady with that stupid I'm like, I
(01:15):
wasn't ready for a Gazelle take here on a Friday
in the Augus.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I wish she had done that on the air.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I would love I would love a non sports sports
rent once a week from like Danielle or somebody who's
like daniel is not a big sports fan. She's like
getting it because she wants to be a part of
what we do.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
She has fun with it.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
But like, how great would it be if we just
bring her in once a week and she just tears
you to shreds? You support Tom Brady?
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Do you?
Speaker 3 (01:38):
What about what about moynihan, What about Gizelle?
Speaker 4 (01:42):
What about how about you're a father with character? Guys,
you're supporting this cheater. I would actually be against the segment,
but you.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Listen, cheater play the balls and ever she'd be like,
what what, I don't even know about that. There's a
whole other thing. Oh man, Thursday night football last night?
Speaker 2 (02:04):
What a what a weird game?
Speaker 3 (02:07):
I mean, like like legit fun to watch because especially
like like just the way that Lamar Jackson handled himself
in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Oh my god, what happened? He's still he's here.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Why he's not feeling well?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
He's wearing a mask for our protection.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
The legend, the gold standard, Jim GAGILYARTI is walking in
the building supposed to be here.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
My god, that's Jim got a body. It's the gold standard.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
He's here, My god, he's here and.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
He's got a mask. He's gotta be cane. It's oh.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
For those of you who don't know, we're in the building,
like so the the iHeart of Albany building, it's us.
It's you know, the river t R y picks uh
and and W G y the and many of those.
Jim gagilartikes him with the news for you. He's been
really sick for like a week.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
And a half.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
He keeps trying to find a way to be here.
His latest is to show up with the mask on.
Do you think the maskts for our stafety year and
hopes that you won't realize it's him. Until he's already
set up and working.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yes, but his usual shift is at five o'clock in
the morning. It is now three o'clock in the afternoon
on a Friday. He's been off all There is no
need for him to be in the building right now.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
There was a couple points last year during the football season,
like we would do the River Show and I would
drive the crew member, whether it was like Delia or
Zach whoever, because they didn't have four wheel drive, so
I would meet them here and I would drive them
to the event. When we would get back here at
like two thirty three, four o'clock whenever it was that
like River said, hey, we're good you guys. You know,
(03:48):
pour a beer or get out of here because the weather.
He would be here.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Oh my gosh, man, it's like whatever he was fighting.
I don't know the flu covid, whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
It's like the flu is fighting him.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
He's not letting him win. He never God, we having
done it yet He's got the buys.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Take that flute trumps the president at Gagliardi fact got
a manic.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
This just did. I came here for two reasons to
chew bubble gum and stop a mudhole in your buttthole,
and I'm all out of bubble gum. I like I
like the I like the awesome, the stone cold Gagliardi
is my new favorite character of the show. Gagliardi three
(04:32):
sixteen says, you've been informed. Oh man, I do.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Not think that's how the show is gonna go.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
I did not think. I looked up and I saw him.
He was doing the strut across the parking lot. Gagly
already struck this.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
On the mask.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
This is why they're not gonna allow us back in
studio ever again.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
I'm doing I'm getting this out.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
This is freaking US coverage fun US radio weight ten
and to one o three one, guy.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I have arrived.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
The presidency has been decided. If you thought you wouldn't
hear from the golden tones of Gagliardi, you we're sadly mistaken.
I'm here, I'm wearing a mask, and my voice is
so powerful it actually blew the mask across the room.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Bengals and Ravens yesterday, how do you go from talking
about the most professional man in Capital Region news and
radio to Derrick Henry's exposed backside on a football game.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
I mean like, that's why we deserve a New York
State Broadcasters Award.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
We can pivot.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
From from esteem professionalism to beare backsides on a dime.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
I don't know what happened to my social media. I
don't know what type of algorithm I'm in now, but
I saw the same joke four or five times today
and it said Sydney Sweeney on the top, Derrick Henry
on the bottom.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
I mean, it's so hey, my my nephew, big, big, big,
big Ravens fan. He's down at Tampa. He's texting me
throughout the game. I didn't see that one coming. And
I look up there I'm like like ten thirty, ten
to fifteen seconds behind him with the text at and
there's there's Derrick Henry's butt. He gets he gets pants
(06:26):
on the tackle. That just like they always there was
always like the conversations like Jerome Bettis, Dereck Henry, how
do you tackle a running back that big, that strong?
Oh the ankles, or or bear with me, grab the pants.
It's not it is it is not that it's not
a horse collar. It's not a horse collar. You know,
we might almost see a horse something. But that was
(06:48):
that was it was not a horse.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Collar, you know, with my boys, I'm a weekly watcher
of Nickelodeon's Slime Time. If you want some belly laughs
from kids under twelve, you better throw that up on
slim Time this week, Nickelodeons.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Just that what you should do is like when the
pants start to start to give way, just have like
Gary the snail for SpongeBob pop out instead like.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Now now.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Great, I mean great, great game except for the referees.
Referee sucked out loud as per usual. Al Michael's lost
his mind and I loved it. I was here for it.
I mean like hearing gagly alarady lose his mind. Just
that guy, that level professional. But like there's there's like
photographic evidence of was it. Madam Buku was like he's
got he's got not only Burrows face mask, but he's
(07:38):
got the offensive lineman's face mask on the ground. And
Lasik do you see Lasik tweeted it give the Lasik
eye surgery is offering free Lasik procedures to all NFL referees.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
This is about at least the fourth time on the
Amazon broadcast this season where we see to call potential to.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Decide that game.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
The one that jumped out to me is still that
Darnold's face mass from two weeks ago. I wonder if
Bezos and the crew at Amazon thought, not only are
we gonna have a really good crew with Fitzpatrick and
Carrissa Thompson and Gonzalez and Richard Sherman, but think about this,
we're also gonna have the best, best setup, and we're
gonna have awesome technology. Now the technology has worked against
(08:20):
the NFL super soumed in super slow motion.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Every pedaltran spot.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
You know, we're all eating the chips and the popcorns
on our bellies, Like, can't believe he missed that call?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Am I right?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
But it's been an impact in all these games, and
it was an impact last night again al Michaels.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Too many games and this way they just do you
miss calls the whole thing so frustrating for the fans,
so frustrating.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
You know what would be here, here's here's how we
fix this.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
Let's put Brady on the Prime games because he's legally
not allowed to criticize the referees, so if he does it,
it's gonna start such a stink.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
That's I just that's what's up.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
I mean, that's not a bad idea. I like that idea.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Here's my idea. That's close. Just never show the replay.
There was a time in sports history older than you
and I right, Like you know why we didn't argue
about so many calls back in the day in the
seventies and the eighties and the early nineties because they
didn't show the replay because we couldn't. Oh, I don't know,
that looked close.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Can we do it?
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Man, it'd be great if we had a feature we
could go back and check, No, we don't.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
All right, it's thirty two. Well, that's why we'll think
about it. Like obviously this this might shock some Actually
it might actually shock some people. The AFL didn't have
the budget of the NFL what so there were a
lot of time we lost. The Firebirds lost games because
there was less cameras in smaller teams, so like we
(09:38):
didn't have like we we can offer replays here in
all buty that a lot of teams can't offer because
we have anywhere four to six cameras depend upon how
big the game is. But just having four cameras is
a big deal for a fifty yard field now I
would imagine Prime has four hundred cameras, like I mean,
just like it's so many crazy things. But it's just
(10:01):
it has been. It's been bad. Me personally, I'm fine.
I had the over I'm loving life right now. Hell,
I almost nailed the score when I said it was
gonna be like thirty four to thirty one or thirty
five thirty one.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Yeah, so like I'm I was, I'm good man, but
it was.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
It's it is frustrating that the reps are the story
week in and week out, like it's just it just
at some point they gotta start doing better, like they
gotta they they.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Just have to.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
This has been a story for the NFL for years now.
I remember we had the old talk about full time,
part time.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
How do you fix it?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Yep?
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Is it the rep that one in particular again decides
the game as that now Michael's goes wild.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
Gosh, that's tough though.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Like, I don't know if we have to expand the challenge,
if there's more say on who gets to throw a
penalty flag as a challenge flag? Even out loud, it
doesn't sound right.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
But how to do that well?
Speaker 2 (10:59):
The game would becomes so clunky. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
I don't know that there is a way to straight
up fiction. I think your I think your original point
is the is the biggest one.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
We have these.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Monitors in our houses. Now they're not even TVs anymore.
We have these screens that are ten twenty and four
K a gajillion pixels. We can see like every blade
of grass, so we can see things. Back in the
day when it was on a thirteen inch black and
white TV tube, they had to to find the game.
(11:35):
You couldn't see the stuff like you didn't take the
announcer's word for like, I look like a face mask
to me. I did see one blurry object towards another
blurry object that could have been a face mat. Now
we see every Look at again, look at Derek Henrick's
but I think there's a pimple on the right cheek.
I like, you can see everything, and that's why we
were privy to it. Now do we set like like
(11:58):
each team gets the two challenges? Does does New York
get a challenge?
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Like?
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Do we give challenges to the to the to the
league office. They already review every touchdown. I'm just saying,
if we let them review every single play, we're gonna
have a problem.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
And this is almost the secret that's kept in this
whole thing.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Right, we as the consuming audience on those beautiful TVs,
and us as officials and commentators, broadcasters, whatever lane you
fall into, are at the mercy of the producer of
the broadcast because if they don't show it or consistently
show it, like we're talking about challenging a penalty, right, Okay,
we thought that might have been a pass interference on
(12:39):
third and two because he grabbed his face, master a
legal contact, whatever you want to call it.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
All right, queue up that replay? Quick, quicker, quicker, Hang on,
they're trying.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
To snap the ball. It's fourth and two. Where's the replay?
But a lot of that is not contingent on the
athletes or coaches. It is on someone who really shouldn't
have a huge impact on the game, but could decide
to play. And that's a television producer in live time.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, so much so.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
And I've seen that too, like where you know Bo, Well, yeah,
not only's not, he's Bo, Like whoever's running the show,
like right now, it would be Nick Bernard. So like
when we when we have a controversial play, like you'll
you'll see our head coach yell over like run it,
like put it on the screen, like do it so
(13:25):
I can see it quick?
Speaker 2 (13:26):
What are you doing? And then you'll see it the
other way too, where if it's like the other team
will be like, hey, you know, don't don't no home cooking,
put it up.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Put it up so I can see it, like yeah,
And it's the way that communication is relayed. Sometimes it
gets missed or it happens later and you you got
to make the call based on what you saw instead
of what you can see again on the big screen.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
But I've seen it happen. You're you're one hundred percent
right again. It's that producer.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
If they maybe there are heads already on, like all right,
oh mag this is if they score, I want to
tight shot on you know, Harball. If they don't score,
I want to tight shot on Lamar if they don't,
if this or if if they stop him, I want
Burrow if they don't, I want some like you see
like they start doing that. So these guys who are
working for market are doing now it's like no, no
quick quick, I need I need to replay, I need
(14:12):
to reply any it's it's not as it's not like
there's some great hive mind running at all.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Also, what if, like the producer just likes the Bengals
or likes the Ravens, you.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Know they they would hope that wouldn't be the case.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Guys that we're working sports don't like certain teams, you know,
like they're not the official, they're not the broadcaster.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
It's some guy who probably loves sports.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Yeah, but there's I have to I have to believe
that's something like there's a reason I've never wanted to
do sports in other markets.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
I'm a homer. I am. I admit it.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I like it.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
It's fun.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
People call me pinstripe pants. I like our New York
teams I have. I have love for the Raiders and
some other teams, but I like I like firing up
our home crowd. It's fun to me, like, I enjoy
it so like I don't want to be I don't.
I don't ever like I make a point to people
I'm not a journalist. I'm an entertainer because if I
was a journalist, I would feel as though I needed
(15:05):
to be neutral, and I don't want to be neutral.
But I feel like there's people out there who do
understand that are neutral.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
And speaking of those non neutral people, maybe maybe not
a TV broadcaster. Back to the algorithm. I'm in Bill's fans.
Why you hating what is going on? Bill's fans, like
Jamar Chase had one of the great statistical games ever
back before I get the Bill rant here.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
You want to offer up that fantasy football take that
happened to you for.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
I need time on that one. I can't do that right,
all right, I need Let's just put it like this.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
I it's probably one of my most active posts all year,
was complaining about what happened to me in fantasy football
last night.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
I'll complained about Bills fans. Then Bill's fans are all
types of complaining yesterday because those two guys, and even
those two teams, really the Ravens and the Bengals had
become the teams they hate the most. I know the
Chiefs should be number one, but a lot of people
have accepted, you know what, the Chiefs continue to beat
us in the games. Are the best at my home
won the Super Bowl? But who after Mahomes is the best?
(16:04):
And even this season, he could argue, probably should argue
that Josh Allen is the MVP. But if there's other
quarterbacks who are just as good, it's Lamar and Burrow,
it's Jackson and Joe. However, and those guys performed last night,
and Bill fan wants to come out and hate and
be like, well, h Burrow's not that good, He's like
nine and eleven in his last twenty starts. Lamar's not
(16:25):
that good. He doesn't win the big game. These guys
aren't better than Josh Allen. The Bills can be Bills fans.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
I don't know if you want to be second or
third in the race.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
But I saw a lot of Bills hate on the
Bengals and Ravens teams that either meet them before or
guys who were close to I like the defense, like
talking about being a Homer for like your guys. Bills
fans were just throwing arrows across social media these guys
because they hate both of these quarterbacks, because there are
a threat to Josh's greatness.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Well, and like if we were gonna do I was
you probably been born yet like Boomer Sias and everybody
had the Quarterbacks club. So like Boomer Sias and Joe Montet,
like all the best quarterbacks in this like basically an
nil deal just for the quarterbacks. If you were gonna
do a modern day quarterbacks club, those three names are
the first three names you're gonna add, like you know,
like you're gonna bring in to Justin Herbert and some
(17:11):
other Obviously Pat Mahomes, Pat Mahomes will be the first name.
Those other three would be the next three that would
So of course Bill Span is weird right now, Bill
Bill Span is they're on the cusp of arrogance. They're
not quite there because they're a little unsure, but they
they realize.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
How good they are.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
And it's to be a team that got torn down,
especially on the defensive side of the ball, gave all
your biggest offensive weapon, all these things in the offseason
to the point where less educated sports fans than myself
thought they were in trouble. I knew, because I'm very smart,
that they were gonna be okay, but like they're better
(17:51):
than I thought they'd be already, and that defense gets
better every week.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
So Bill Span is sitting here like anytime it's.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
A conversation like that that like sensitive nature they've got
from the four losses and all that stuff. Every time
the conversation isn't about them, they get puffy. But dude,
don't get puffy, because there's a future where you play
each one of these guys on your way and.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
It's gonna be fun to watch. You sent this to
me earlier.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
There have been two instances in NFL history where QB
had thirty plus completions, three hundred plus passing yards, four
plus two TD passes, multiple forty plus yard TD passes,
no more than one interception, and yet they still lost.
Those two instances were Joe Burrow versus the Ravens in
(18:36):
Week five and last night. He's the only quarterback in
history to be so dominant and lost to a team twice.
And it's the same season, it's the same team. Insane
And like he I thought, Joe Burrow, he did a
really smart thing last night. Did you hear some of
his postgame? He got hit late, he got face masks,
(18:58):
neither got called, and instead of complaining, he said, I
never get those calls. Why would I expect them? See,
that is the perfect way to complain without complaining. Because
what that means now is somebody in league office has
to go to the refs and go, hey, we looked
(19:19):
at the film. He's not wrong. He is not wrong.
Get your act together. This is one of our young
stars and you're letting get abused. Like so I thought.
Ravens win, that's the number one thing. Ravens win, But
so many controversies coming out of it for the NFL and.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
The Bengals and Ravens always entertain Bengals and Ravens every
single week.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
From game winning field could not be the.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
First week in freaking hard knocks start early.
Speaker 1 (19:47):

that's a great game, and wow, I can't believe who
did this and this and this, and I start seeing
the posts and it's like, you know, just a beaten
man or whatever. And it's like the way it feels
to wake up and realize you're facing Jamar Chase and
fantasy football, and like one afterno that I'm seeing those
(21:43):
and that's pretty funny. I'm like, wait a minute, there's
no way I'm I'm not am I I mean, like,
because so we have the the iHeart League, which I
started one and two in. I lost to you in
week one, one week two, and I lost week three,
and since then I've been on I've been barnstorming, like
(22:04):
I'm what's seven and two right now or something like
that going into this week.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
An incredible run you've had for the Stallions of.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Yeah, yeah, the Stallions scouting service. And I'm like, I'm
playing a team that's ahead of me. So I I'm
basically playing for first place right now. I get up
Sporting and this the score is seventy two point eight
to seven point four. Ooh, I'm losing. After Thursday Night football,
(22:37):
I'm being given a sixteen percent chance of coming back.
I have only had Zay Flowers, who dropped a bunch
of balls seven point four. The person I'm playing has
Rashad Bateman seventeen point four and Jamar Chase fifty five
point four points out of one. Dude, if I get
(22:58):
fifty five points out of two players, I'm like, yeah,
let's freaking go.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
We're on our way. So I'm like, man, so I
screenshot that, I send it to you. You You're like,
oh no.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I'm like, yeah, that's not good man. I got I
got a big comeback to do here if I'm gonna
have a chance. And I started thinking, I'm like, there's
no way in my I have a dynasty league with
all the guys that I used to work with in
the NAL media in front offices. It's just not like
there's it's not yeah, yep, there's Jamar Chase fifty five
point four points.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
I'm like, come on.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
And then I'm in one more league, which is the
office for the for the Firebirds, and everybody has super
teams because it's a small league. I'm like, it's there's
no I'm playing coach Damon where there's And I'm like,
and I'm thinking to myself, I'm like, I know I've
got Derek he Wait, I'm sorry, I've got Lamar Jackson.
I'm doing well. He's got Derrick Henry and Jamar Chase.
(23:53):
So two players I'm getting beat sixty nine point five
to thirty three point nine. Now the thirty three is
one player, so I'm I'm I have a chance there.
But like, I'm in three fantasy leagues and I'm facing
Jamar Chase in all three. Jamar freaking Chase, you know,
the guy with eleven catches for two hundred and sixty
(24:15):
four yards and three touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
And we talked about this yesterday.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
If I'm not right, if there isn't already a contract
agreed to, the Bengals are the dumbest organization in the
history of man kind, because this is gonna be the
highest paid wide receiver a.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
A that performance that he had isn't the greatest fantasy
football performance of all time statistically, it might be.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
That's more of a you question. You're more nerdy like that.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
I'm gonna go to try to find that because that
might be the greatest single fantasy football performance ever buy
a wide receiver.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
I feel for you, leavec Did you.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
See some of the comments coming into your post today, oh, Man, Like,
and it's like people are with me, They're with me
on this.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
So I put it on Facebook because I've been getting more.
I'm getting more interaction on Facebook than anywhere lately. And
it's literally like one of my opponents at Burrow and Chase,
I'm already down eighty nine nothing. That's Ken, one of
my my cousin fires. Oh, I had a good start
in my league. He's got him scotty bing bang blame.
(25:20):
Talk about crappy luck like ouch will probably shouldn't buy
bother buying a lottery ticket.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
This week from Mario.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
Randy King, who used to work for US Fantasy Football
gods are very devious in their ways, dude, Bryan, guy
in my league has chased Lamar Mark and Andrews. He's
already has one hundred and fifteen points from this week
for three players. Yeah, I mean Joey Hassin, who's another
(25:53):
guy used to work with faced Henry and Saquan in
two leagues last week.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Feel you dog? Oh and so that's that's there.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
On acts, I will say that this is one of
the more active like with me not making a prediction
about the Raiders. This is one of my more active
tweets where I just say I'm in three fantasy football leagues,
face the Jamar Chase in all three leagues hashtag fantasy
bleeped Jason Romano. I'm in two of them, both leagues,
I'm facing Chase. Wait, in the wide world of sports
(26:24):
is going on here? I'm in three and all have Chase,
and all have Burrow and Burrow and two of them Nick, Like, dude, it's.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
That fifty five points out of one, dude, I have.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
This is the second greatest Fantasy football performance by a
wide receiver of all time.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
So all right, second grades, and this is I don't
think you'd.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Ever be able to get this. I wouldn't. There's no
chance I would have got that.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
I was already thinking it's not gonna be It's it's
like Chris Godwin or something like that. It's it's not
like a.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
It's not gonna be like a super well known guy.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Say he's not a Hall of Famer, but he probably
would be like a Hall of very good. I'll give
you the I'll give you the top five real quick.
I was gonna name the names of the players. A
guy named Drew Bennett from two thousand and four for
the Titans.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
I don't that was Titans. I have no idea.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Will Fuller, the fifth had won in two thousand and
nine the Texans YEP against the Falcons.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
Two. Didn't he have two games like that? He had
two monster games?
Speaker 4 (27:21):
Always got to hurt too.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Had won in Week sixteen against the Bears in two thousand.
The number two highest scoring Fantasy football performance by a
wide receiver in history was Week twelve in the COVID
year of twenty twenty, when Tyreek Hill went for that
monster game in that top Brady led Buccaneer game. Remember
in the first quarter, Tyreek Hill had two hundred and
three yards and two touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, that was sick.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
But the number one now.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Jamar Chase is now second all time in one of
the great performances three. The number one is in the
year two thousand, Week two and when the Jacksonville Jaguars
played the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Jacks. Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
Jimmy Smith.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Yeah, fifteen catches, two hundred and ninety one yards and
three touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
That was from Brunel right, I believe it was sixty.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Two fantasy points.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
Dear God, the Jimmy Smith two ninety one has gotta
be a top three receiving game.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
I bet of aall there's I would think the Raiders.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
I know Jerry Porter had a huge game one year
that I thought would have been not like close up there.
But yeah, there's just like randomly these dudes go off.
They just have the right matchup on a hot night
and they and your in trouble. But Jamar Chay, you know,
Jamar Chase is gonna be big.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
I want to go back to that point. Yes, I
want to go back to that point you had about
his contract. Didn't the Bengals just lose all the leverage,
Like you guys had a chance to lock him up.
He put up in a store performance. Because you know,
quarterbacks have set a new precedent for salary camp. Running
backs continue to be hard to figure out, especially after
that Chewba Hubberd deal yesterday. Jamar Chase is gonna go
to the Bengals and say, look what I just did
(29:00):
this season. I did everything I could win, lost Y
Staff one of the great games ever, top sixteen ever
in receiving yards, by the way, that Jimmy Smith game
rank seventh all time. He's gonna say, Okay, you don't
want to sign me, even though I have my college
teammate and the Burrow Chase connections.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Great.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
This is a situation in football, and there's probably maybe
ten or twelve guys that you can look at any
single team in the NFL and say he can work
on any single team in the NFL. Jamar Chase is
in that category.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
So your leverage that would be that you could franchise
tag for twenty like twenty two mil. However, let's not
forget that while he was fighting you over his contract,
he showed up like he has missed a game. He's
not Hasan Raddick, He's not He's not Emma Smith. He's
(29:52):
this is a guy who is disagreeing with you contractually
and still going to work. I would say it a
bit of a slow start, beca he missed the training
camp and stuff like that, but he's now in full
The reason you're still alive even though you've had a
bad start is this dude's next level and he can
put up two hundred yards against anybody with Joe Burrow
(30:13):
as his QB. Plus, you need to keep Joe Burrow happy. Yeah,
I did have no leverage. The only hope they have
is that I'm right. They've already agreed to a deal,
but they just haven't made a public and if that even.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
If that's the case, right now, I'm the agent looking
back and go it.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Hey, guys, by the way, going with the old Darth Vader,
we had a deal. I've altered the terms of our deal.
Pray I didn't alter it further.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Now this talk with Chase and contracts and the heartbreak
you and Jason Ermono and others have suffered in Joey
and Moore, let me get a little freaky on this Friday, Levac.
Let me tell us a wild ideal idea out here.
Fred Taylor freaky Freddie Jimmy Smith warmer teammate. Do you
think we should add new rules in fantasy football leagues
for this. Let me throw this one out here. I
have a friend who calls this a ghost lineup, and
(30:59):
I still put believe to this day. One day people
are gonna do this and find this is the way
people said fantasy lineups. He won't show you anybody on
his team, So when you open up the app, it'll
be like matchup versus the fighting preses. It'll be zero,
So you have no advantage when you play him. So
you like, let's say, for instance, you want to play
a defense. You don't know what defense he's gonna start
(31:20):
against his guys. You don't know if, like, for instance,
he's trying to play a wide receiver that your quarterback
is gonna throw to. He will ghost his lineup right
until Sunday morning, which is a little risky because if
you have bad internet, you can't put anybody in your life.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
You know, but who you know who's on his roster?
You just don't know who's gonna play.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Yes, but you'd be surprised. And I think we all
admit this. How often do you look at somebody's bench
in fantasy football? Usually know you just look, here's my
matchup is right, So that's one way to do it.
I've heard about vampire leagues where like you could pick
that right, you could pick somebody's player off and all
that stuff, or pick a whole team off. In some cases,
(31:56):
what do you make of this new one, the mulligan rule, Like,
let's play this out for you yesterday. Every fantasy football
league one player. Once a year, you get one mulligan. Now,
Either you can dump somebody out of your lineup. Let's say,
for instance, a game right like Brian Robinson was a
pregame scratch. You might have got this, but hey, I
(32:18):
had a zero in my lineup. I had a forty
on my bench. That's my one mulligan of the year.
Or you could use the mulligan against somebody like Levak's case,
Hey I get one mulligain Chases out of her lineup.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
Doesn't then could you double stamp it with her mulligan
or there mulligan and put Chase back in.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
I'm willing to talk about these ideas. I think it's
probably against the whole core of what is fantasy football,
but there is something cool about having these little niches
in certain leagues. There was that one thing that's gone
viral this year that one of the rules was that
if a quarterback made a tackle during the game, it
was ninety nine points. I'm gonna league that if a
fake extra point or a fake field goal or fake
(33:00):
punt is scored, it's an automatic six points for that defense.
That's a little I'm gonna have some bonus leagues. Every
league has to find their thing. I know it's probably
your answer is yes, because you've got pounded by Jamar Chase.
But I'm willing to hear people if they want to
do this Mulligan.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Rule at time.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
I I like, if the idea of every like once
a year you miss somebody on your bench, like I
because remember during COVID they were doing it. We were
in we were in leagues where if you let the
guy know, like hey if this person, if if so
and so's out for COVID, I get to put this
person in. And I was like, I wasn't really with it,
(33:36):
because hey, pay attention, you know what I mean, Like,
I'm sorry, part of the part of the deal. Pay attention,
But like, I don't hate the idea of one Mulligan
a year, like pay for it. So it goes into
the championship pot too, because you think about it. If
everybody pays twenty five bucks for their Mulligan. All right,
you're in you know, twelve person league. You know you're
sitting there like, all right, listen, we just we just
(33:57):
floaded the uh the old the old prize spot up,
you know, a considerable amount now where there's actually three
hundred dollars to the to the prize pot, or maybe
that's the fee for the commission to run the league,
something like that.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
I don't hate it because that mu I think you
have a rule to like, if you're gonna use the Mulligan,
you can't wait till it's all said and done, like, oh,
I'm just gonna give myself the win.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
That that might be again all right, but but I
would ask I would add that there's like a retroactive
Mulligan on top.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
So so like, all right, so you and I play
each other.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
I left Jamar Chase on my bench for some on
on all the Ravens defense is getting better.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
He was on a bye week forgot us a Thursday game.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Something change it over.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Uh, you win by forty nine points, So I go out, Mulligan,
I put my fifty five points and I win the game.
You could go, yeah, you know what, mulligan, I got
a guy who outperformed this other guy.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Boom, you still win.
Speaker 3 (34:51):
But it's weball like two points now, Like that's the
thing is like you gotta yeah, like you want to
make it and like like now you're gonna pay attention
like he already uses mulligan. Because if he already uses mulligan,
bleep him. I'll take him down. I don't want to
waste my mulligan still get a loss.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
You hold your mulligan to the championship.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
Oh no, it's gotta be used during the regular season.
It's gotta being the playoffs. I don't hate the idea
of a mulligan during the regular season because there's a
lot of strategy around that.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
The postseason.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
You imagine if you're going up against somebody in the
championship game and you're watching the whole time, you're like,
oh no, they could just they still well.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Eight points, you know, ten points a kicker somebody picks
up like a bunch of kickers on their bench defense.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Do you like, ah, mulligan, I put this in and
like not a I still got mine too. Here you go.
Speaker 4 (35:39):
It would make it much more exciting in certain matchups.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Probably not for us if we were involved in the
Mulligan game and it would break our heart at the
Jeff Lovak at Tom Goss tmgozz.
Speaker 4 (35:48):
If you like the idea of.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
After the Jamar chase a fantasy Mulligan in leagues, and
if you don't play fantasy football, and maybe you've been
always thinking about doing it, maybe that's your thing. Hey,
we gonna do fantasy football next year and we are
the Mulligan League.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
I want to do the zombie or vampire league where
it's like so one. So let's say it's a it's
a ten person league. One team doesn't get to draft,
so everybody drafts their team and then afterwards, So I'm
the zombie, I'm I'm the vampire. I go build my
team from free agents Week one. Somehow I get lucky,
I beat you, I get to take one of your players.
(36:25):
So now I've got I've got this on there, and
I don't like there's a point where you come back
to life like something like that, but it's but it's
just such a such an evil way to do it.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
I love it. You gotta be so good at a
waiver wire.
Speaker 1 (36:41):
I'm curious how those teams have done have they won
because the waiver wire so many teams. You can win
a league, no doubt with Like what you drafted compared
to what you finish with is rarely ever the same team.
Speaker 3 (36:49):
Yeah, I'm I'm so into that. I want to try
that one of these years. But we don't have the
right fans, the right people to do it, because you can't.
You can't just because it's a waste of money. If
the person has no idea how to do a football
and they get stuck with the zombie and.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
Let's say, all of a sudden, you want to pick
somebody off and you got like Christian McCaffrey out a
week water week two.
Speaker 4 (37:06):
That's probably what we're on now. You're done your toast.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
By the way, Buccaneers are facing McCaffrey this week, aren't they.
We'll get to that later. Zombe, zombe, did you all right?
We we got a big show still like this. We're
just getting started.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
We're in studio Tony Kahan coming up, major, major cool
event going on in the Capitol region for a good cause.
That's coming up in the third hour. Next Club option,
lame duck. A lot of terms being thrown around the
New York Yankees organization. Right now, we got that fo
you come up next, right here, Fox Sport Radio in
nine eighty.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
It's slow backing Guz on the voice of the Capitol
Regions sports fan Fox Sports ninety five, nine and nine eighty.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
The Yankees have exercise their twenty twenty five club option
on manager Aaron So he will be back for the
twenty twenty five season. For people wanting him fired, wanting
him gone, ain't gonna happen. Brian Cashman obviously not going
anywhere either or else. He would have not been at
the team meetings, the GM meetings.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
The only thing is, and.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
Look, you there's a really great argument for keeping him.
So he's fifty one years old, he's got six hundred
and three wins, four hundred and twenty nine losses. That's
a five to eighty four record. He's had postseason birth
in six of his seven seasons. He's you know, he's
he's done. The team has succeeded under the management of Boonie.
(38:42):
The problem is the team has not had the ultimate
success under Boonie. They haven't won a World Series yet.
So what do you do is is but like What
worries me is, isn't this a lame duck situation? Like
he's not extended? Are they gonna extend him further? Like
(39:05):
if you play under him, you know that he might
not be there next year? Oh, I would Is that more.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Of a football thing than a baseball thing? Well?
Speaker 4 (39:16):
What the lame duck?
Speaker 3 (39:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (39:17):
Extending?
Speaker 3 (39:18):
Yeah, I don't think so. Feel it's more of a
football thing. I feel like football coaches that are lame
ducks play players. Players are just like, Ah, I'm gonna
be here next year.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
You're not.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
But I like it feels like for baseball it's more
because of the pharmcistem Like we see a lot of teams.
The Yankees aren't like this, but we saw a lot
of teams. The Braves are an example of this. I
want to say the Tigers might have been an example
of this, where they'll let a manager suck, like they
know they're gonna lose ninety or one hundred games and
they're gonna let that manager eat it. And then right
(39:48):
when it turns and the minor league guys start to
come up, they fire the manager and bring up the
minor league guy who the young prospects played for and
he becomes the voice in the locker because they like
him and he was their coach, and that's usually a
baseball thing where they almost know going in they're gonna
be out. I would not think Boone's a lame duck, though,
because I could see why the Yankees, on like any
(40:09):
other franchise, could say we didn't win the World Series,
we are not going to extend you.
Speaker 4 (40:13):
It would actually be more of a.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
Story and I think it would actually get Yankee fans
more worked up if Boone got an extension. He hasn't
done anything, is even better than Girardi. He's the worst
Yankee manager of my lifetime because he hasn't won a championship.
Those are realistic takes that could have gained from Yankee
fans if they announced an extension. So they laid it
out for Boone, here's your season, twenty twenty five, twenty
(40:35):
twenty six. We'll find out maybe twenty twenty five we're
gonna get it done. If not, we're on to the
next one. Because we've given you every resource, every way
to win. We've been good, but we can't say, well,
let me ask that question out you real quick. It
was the right move to get rid of Girardi, right, Like,
is it too simple? Like, oh, he didn't win a
World Series, so he's not better enjoy I don't think
it's that simple because it feels like, now, hindsight being
(40:57):
what it is, it felt like the right move to
bring Boone because he's always been good.
Speaker 3 (41:02):
It's it's tough because I think what it comes down
to is your philosophy on how the Yankees are run.
Like if you if you're not a Cashman fan, you
probably are very, very not okay with Girardi being fired
because Girardi would pushed back once in a while. Some
would say that's why they actually won, you know, in
(41:24):
nine is a little pushback. Boone doesn't seem to do that.
I mean maybe maybe something happen again the scenes that
we're unaware of, but at least the outside looking in,
it appears as though he's a company man. You know,
he does what he's told analytically by by Cashman.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (41:40):
I I think, yes, I I don't. I don't think
they would be that much more successful if Girardi had
stayed than giving it to Boone. Boone is one of
three managers in Yankee history to make the postseason six
of his first seven seasons.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
That's an incredible stat. Into Girardi's comparison, he went to Philly,
Philly was doing fine, they got rid of him. They
got a lot better without Girardi, So that always hurt
his perception around the league.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
And that's what's interesting.
Speaker 2 (42:06):
He won with the Marlins, he did.
Speaker 4 (42:07):
I believe that was pre Yankees.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
No, yeah, yeah, you want the manager of the year,
and then I think I think it was manager of
the year fired, and then the Yankees picked him up.
It was weird that talent of Girardi's ten years because
Don Manning Lee's also in that mix two for the
Marlins at one point. But I also wonder, like, okay,
we talked about contracts and what's the future. Other teams
would want Aaron Boone, right, because that's also hard to
(42:30):
evaluate Boone, that Boone had no previous managerial experience, and
he gets undercut nationally because it's like, well, you got
the Yankee roster, what are you really doing? Is there
a huge market for Aaron Boone if he left? That's
also tough to evaluate in that spot.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
Yeah, I don't, I don't. Yeah, he I think he
would be. I think you you would definitely give him
a shot if you needed. Like, like I said, he's
been successful, He's only fifty one. You love I mean
I personally. I love the way he fights the refs.
I love that he's willing to get kicked out of
a game to rile up the team. I don't know
if the team gets his riled up anymore. I mean,
(43:06):
you might need Brett Gardner and they're smacking a bat
into the to the dugout too. But no, he's he's
done a great job, and he is not great. He's
done a very good job. A World series when he
done a great job. But like there's people who believe
he's just a puppet. That's the problem.
Speaker 2 (43:20):
What do you believe?
Speaker 3 (43:21):
Do you believe that he takes the information given him
by the intellect nerds and manages the game or do
you believe that he just takes the information given him
by the analytic nerds and then implements it. That's what
that's the argument for Boone and extending his contract into
twenty twenty five by taking that club option doesn't really answer.
(43:43):
It just means he's still here, you know what I mean,
Like they like him. I almost kind of wish he
was a lame dog because, like Kylie, would you know,
you look at the Trump situation. He can't be reelected.
There's no there's another Donald Trump. Hold onto your seat.
He can do whatever he wants. What are you gonna
do to him? You've already tried to assassinate him, You've
alread tried to impeach him. He already tried to put
(44:05):
him in jail, and now he's here, Like, what are
you gonna do?
Speaker 2 (44:07):
Where?
Speaker 3 (44:08):
Like if if I'm Aaron Boone and I'm looking around,
I'm thinking what you're thinking? Guy's like, ha, I think
other teams would hire me. And I think the only
thing hold me back right now with the Yankees is
the fact that I don't push back enough. So guess
what I'm gonna do in twenty twenty five. I'm gonna
do it my way. If I get fired, so be it.
If if we went it all, I'm gonna get a
nice contract extension.
Speaker 4 (44:27):
Was it limp Biscuit my way or the highway?
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (44:30):
A new aeron Boone. He's riding in the car the nookie.
What let's talk about C four? I had a delicious
sea four. This morning, I had a wild night somehow,

those moments right now. Still need that extra boost thanks

Speaker 3 (00:10):
Guy's looking around like he's confused. To be fuddled, you
just know why we're not sitting outside of a Stewart
somewhere freezing our asses off.
Speaker 4 (00:15):
I can't make this up.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
It's our first show in studio on a Friday since
June twenty eighth, and I'm pretty.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Sure everything makes sense that now I understand everything.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Pretty sure half that intro got cut, Like what do
I do with the button? June twenty eighth, We back
credit to our sales team, credits of the great business across.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
That's why the.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Sales teams been taking shots that used to that got
here this morning. You've been you passive, aggressively been telling
them to get us back out live.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
That's what you've been doing.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Because even the sweetest one, Danielle comes up to me
and goes, hey, let your partner know his Brady T
shirt way too tight, and like walked out. I was like, wow,
She's like it's nice, you know what.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I've accepted it because she gave me the roasting and
I realized it's not so much me in the shirt,
it's her feelings for Gizelle before I was insulted. She
went on a rant about Giselle. She's like, she doesn't
get it. Tom Brady cheated her like dirt and she
went and did her own thing slay queen, and you're
out here supporting Brady with that stupid I'm like, I
(01:15):
wasn't ready for a Gazelle take here on a Friday
in the Augus.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I wish she had done that on the air.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I would love I would love a non sports sports
rent once a week from like Danielle or somebody who's
like daniel is not a big sports fan. She's like
getting it because she wants to be a part of
what we do.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
She has fun with it.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
But like, how great would it be if we just
bring her in once a week and she just tears
you to shreds? You support Tom Brady?
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Do you?
Speaker 3 (01:38):
What about what about moynihan, What about Gizelle?
Speaker 4 (01:42):
What about how about you're a father with character? Guys,
you're supporting this cheater. I would actually be against the segment,
but you.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Listen, cheater play the balls and ever she'd be like,
what what, I don't even know about that. There's a
whole other thing. Oh man, Thursday night football last night?
Speaker 2 (02:04):
What a what a weird game?
Speaker 3 (02:07):
I mean, like like legit fun to watch because especially
like like just the way that Lamar Jackson handled himself
in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Oh my god, what happened? He's still he's here.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Why he's not feeling well?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
He's wearing a mask for our protection.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
The legend, the gold standard, Jim GAGILYARTI is walking in
the building supposed to be here.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
My god, that's Jim got a body. It's the gold standard.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
He's here, My god, he's here and.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
He's got a mask. He's gotta be cane. It's oh.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
For those of you who don't know, we're in the building,
like so the the iHeart of Albany building, it's us.
It's you know, the river t R y picks uh
and and W G y the and many of those.
Jim gagilartikes him with the news for you. He's been
really sick for like a week.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
And a half.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
He keeps trying to find a way to be here.
His latest is to show up with the mask on.
Do you think the maskts for our stafety year and
hopes that you won't realize it's him. Until he's already
set up and working.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yes, but his usual shift is at five o'clock in
the morning. It is now three o'clock in the afternoon
on a Friday. He's been off all There is no
need for him to be in the building right now.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
There was a couple points last year during the football season,
like we would do the River Show and I would
drive the crew member, whether it was like Delia or
Zach whoever, because they didn't have four wheel drive, so
I would meet them here and I would drive them
to the event. When we would get back here at
like two thirty three, four o'clock whenever it was that
like River said, hey, we're good you guys. You know,
(03:48):
pour a beer or get out of here because the weather.
He would be here.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Oh my gosh, man, it's like whatever he was fighting.
I don't know the flu covid, whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
It's like the flu is fighting him.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
He's not letting him win. He never God, we having
done it yet He's got the buys.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Take that flute trumps the president at Gagliardi fact got
a manic.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
This just did. I came here for two reasons to
chew bubble gum and stop a mudhole in your buttthole,
and I'm all out of bubble gum. I like I
like the I like the awesome, the stone cold Gagliardi
is my new favorite character of the show. Gagliardi three
(04:32):
sixteen says, you've been informed. Oh man, I do.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Not think that's how the show is gonna go.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
I did not think. I looked up and I saw him.
He was doing the strut across the parking lot. Gagly
already struck this.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
On the mask.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
This is why they're not gonna allow us back in
studio ever again.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
I'm doing I'm getting this out.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
This is freaking US coverage fun US radio weight ten
and to one o three one, guy.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I have arrived.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
The presidency has been decided. If you thought you wouldn't
hear from the golden tones of Gagliardi, you we're sadly mistaken.
I'm here, I'm wearing a mask, and my voice is
so powerful it actually blew the mask across the room.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Bengals and Ravens yesterday, how do you go from talking
about the most professional man in Capital Region news and
radio to Derrick Henry's exposed backside on a football game.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
I mean like, that's why we deserve a New York
State Broadcasters Award.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
We can pivot.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
From from esteem professionalism to beare backsides on a dime.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
I don't know what happened to my social media. I
don't know what type of algorithm I'm in now, but
I saw the same joke four or five times today
and it said Sydney Sweeney on the top, Derrick Henry
on the bottom.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
I mean, it's so hey, my my nephew, big, big, big,
big Ravens fan. He's down at Tampa. He's texting me
throughout the game. I didn't see that one coming. And
I look up there I'm like like ten thirty, ten
to fifteen seconds behind him with the text at and
there's there's Derrick Henry's butt. He gets he gets pants
(06:26):
on the tackle. That just like they always there was
always like the conversations like Jerome Bettis, Dereck Henry, how
do you tackle a running back that big, that strong?
Oh the ankles, or or bear with me, grab the pants.
It's not it is it is not that it's not
a horse collar. It's not a horse collar. You know,
we might almost see a horse something. But that was
(06:48):
that was it was not a horse.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Collar, you know, with my boys, I'm a weekly watcher
of Nickelodeon's Slime Time. If you want some belly laughs
from kids under twelve, you better throw that up on
slim Time this week, Nickelodeons.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Just that what you should do is like when the
pants start to start to give way, just have like
Gary the snail for SpongeBob pop out instead like.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Now now.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Great, I mean great, great game except for the referees.
Referee sucked out loud as per usual. Al Michael's lost
his mind and I loved it. I was here for it.
I mean like hearing gagly alarady lose his mind. Just
that guy, that level professional. But like there's there's like
photographic evidence of was it. Madam Buku was like he's
got he's got not only Burrows face mask, but he's
(07:38):
got the offensive lineman's face mask on the ground. And
Lasik do you see Lasik tweeted it give the Lasik
eye surgery is offering free Lasik procedures to all NFL referees.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
This is about at least the fourth time on the
Amazon broadcast this season where we see to call potential to.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Decide that game.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
The one that jumped out to me is still that
Darnold's face mass from two weeks ago. I wonder if
Bezos and the crew at Amazon thought, not only are
we gonna have a really good crew with Fitzpatrick and
Carrissa Thompson and Gonzalez and Richard Sherman, but think about this,
we're also gonna have the best, best setup, and we're
gonna have awesome technology. Now the technology has worked against
(08:20):
the NFL super soumed in super slow motion.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Every pedaltran spot.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
You know, we're all eating the chips and the popcorns
on our bellies, Like, can't believe he missed that call?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Am I right?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
But it's been an impact in all these games, and
it was an impact last night again al Michaels.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Too many games and this way they just do you
miss calls the whole thing so frustrating for the fans,
so frustrating.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
You know what would be here, here's here's how we
fix this.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
Let's put Brady on the Prime games because he's legally
not allowed to criticize the referees, so if he does it,
it's gonna start such a stink.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
That's I just that's what's up.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
I mean, that's not a bad idea. I like that idea.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Here's my idea. That's close. Just never show the replay.
There was a time in sports history older than you
and I right, Like you know why we didn't argue
about so many calls back in the day in the
seventies and the eighties and the early nineties because they
didn't show the replay because we couldn't. Oh, I don't know,
that looked close.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Can we do it?
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Man, it'd be great if we had a feature we
could go back and check, No, we don't.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
All right, it's thirty two. Well, that's why we'll think
about it. Like obviously this this might shock some Actually
it might actually shock some people. The AFL didn't have
the budget of the NFL what so there were a
lot of time we lost. The Firebirds lost games because
there was less cameras in smaller teams, so like we
(09:38):
didn't have like we we can offer replays here in
all buty that a lot of teams can't offer because
we have anywhere four to six cameras depend upon how
big the game is. But just having four cameras is
a big deal for a fifty yard field now I
would imagine Prime has four hundred cameras, like I mean,
just like it's so many crazy things. But it's just
(10:01):
it has been. It's been bad. Me personally, I'm fine.
I had the over I'm loving life right now. Hell,
I almost nailed the score when I said it was
gonna be like thirty four to thirty one or thirty
five thirty one.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Yeah, so like I'm I was, I'm good man, but
it was.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
It's it is frustrating that the reps are the story
week in and week out, like it's just it just
at some point they gotta start doing better, like they
gotta they they.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Just have to.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
This has been a story for the NFL for years now.
I remember we had the old talk about full time,
part time.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
How do you fix it?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Yep?
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Is it the rep that one in particular again decides
the game as that now Michael's goes wild.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
Gosh, that's tough though.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Like, I don't know if we have to expand the challenge,
if there's more say on who gets to throw a
penalty flag as a challenge flag? Even out loud, it
doesn't sound right.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
But how to do that well?
Speaker 2 (10:59):
The game would becomes so clunky. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
I don't know that there is a way to straight
up fiction. I think your I think your original point
is the is the biggest one.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
We have these.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Monitors in our houses. Now they're not even TVs anymore.
We have these screens that are ten twenty and four
K a gajillion pixels. We can see like every blade
of grass, so we can see things. Back in the
day when it was on a thirteen inch black and
white TV tube, they had to to find the game.
(11:35):
You couldn't see the stuff like you didn't take the
announcer's word for like, I look like a face mask
to me. I did see one blurry object towards another
blurry object that could have been a face mat. Now
we see every Look at again, look at Derek Henrick's
but I think there's a pimple on the right cheek.
I like, you can see everything, and that's why we
were privy to it. Now do we set like like
(11:58):
each team gets the two challenges? Does does New York
get a challenge?
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Like?
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Do we give challenges to the to the to the
league office. They already review every touchdown. I'm just saying,
if we let them review every single play, we're gonna
have a problem.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
And this is almost the secret that's kept in this
whole thing.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Right, we as the consuming audience on those beautiful TVs,
and us as officials and commentators, broadcasters, whatever lane you
fall into, are at the mercy of the producer of
the broadcast because if they don't show it or consistently
show it, like we're talking about challenging a penalty, right, Okay,
we thought that might have been a pass interference on
(12:39):
third and two because he grabbed his face, master a
legal contact, whatever you want to call it.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
All right, queue up that replay? Quick, quicker, quicker, Hang on,
they're trying.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
To snap the ball. It's fourth and two. Where's the replay?
But a lot of that is not contingent on the
athletes or coaches. It is on someone who really shouldn't
have a huge impact on the game, but could decide
to play. And that's a television producer in live time.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, so much so.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
And I've seen that too, like where you know Bo, Well, yeah,
not only's not, he's Bo, Like whoever's running the show,
like right now, it would be Nick Bernard. So like
when we when we have a controversial play, like you'll
you'll see our head coach yell over like run it,
like put it on the screen, like do it so
(13:25):
I can see it quick?
Speaker 2 (13:26):
What are you doing? And then you'll see it the
other way too, where if it's like the other team
will be like, hey, you know, don't don't no home cooking,
put it up.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Put it up so I can see it, like yeah,
And it's the way that communication is relayed. Sometimes it
gets missed or it happens later and you you got
to make the call based on what you saw instead
of what you can see again on the big screen.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
But I've seen it happen. You're you're one hundred percent
right again. It's that producer.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
If they maybe there are heads already on, like all right,
oh mag this is if they score, I want to
tight shot on you know, Harball. If they don't score,
I want to tight shot on Lamar if they don't,
if this or if if they stop him, I want
Burrow if they don't, I want some like you see
like they start doing that. So these guys who are
working for market are doing now it's like no, no
quick quick, I need I need to replay, I need
(14:12):
to reply any it's it's not as it's not like
there's some great hive mind running at all.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Also, what if, like the producer just likes the Bengals
or likes the Ravens, you.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Know they they would hope that wouldn't be the case.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Guys that we're working sports don't like certain teams, you know,
like they're not the official, they're not the broadcaster.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
It's some guy who probably loves sports.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Yeah, but there's I have to I have to believe
that's something like there's a reason I've never wanted to
do sports in other markets.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
I'm a homer. I am. I admit it.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I like it.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
It's fun.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
People call me pinstripe pants. I like our New York
teams I have. I have love for the Raiders and
some other teams, but I like I like firing up
our home crowd. It's fun to me, like, I enjoy
it so like I don't want to be I don't.
I don't ever like I make a point to people
I'm not a journalist. I'm an entertainer because if I
was a journalist, I would feel as though I needed
(15:05):
to be neutral, and I don't want to be neutral.
But I feel like there's people out there who do
understand that are neutral.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
And speaking of those non neutral people, maybe maybe not
a TV broadcaster. Back to the algorithm. I'm in Bill's fans.
Why you hating what is going on? Bill's fans, like
Jamar Chase had one of the great statistical games ever
back before I get the Bill rant here.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
You want to offer up that fantasy football take that
happened to you for.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
I need time on that one. I can't do that right,
all right, I need Let's just put it like this.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
I it's probably one of my most active posts all year,
was complaining about what happened to me in fantasy football
last night.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
I'll complained about Bills fans. Then Bill's fans are all
types of complaining yesterday because those two guys, and even
those two teams, really the Ravens and the Bengals had
become the teams they hate the most. I know the
Chiefs should be number one, but a lot of people
have accepted, you know what, the Chiefs continue to beat
us in the games. Are the best at my home
won the Super Bowl? But who after Mahomes is the best?
(16:04):
And even this season, he could argue, probably should argue
that Josh Allen is the MVP. But if there's other
quarterbacks who are just as good, it's Lamar and Burrow,
it's Jackson and Joe. However, and those guys performed last night,
and Bill fan wants to come out and hate and
be like, well, h Burrow's not that good, He's like
nine and eleven in his last twenty starts. Lamar's not
(16:25):
that good. He doesn't win the big game. These guys
aren't better than Josh Allen. The Bills can be Bills fans.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
I don't know if you want to be second or
third in the race.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
But I saw a lot of Bills hate on the
Bengals and Ravens teams that either meet them before or
guys who were close to I like the defense, like
talking about being a Homer for like your guys. Bills
fans were just throwing arrows across social media these guys
because they hate both of these quarterbacks, because there are
a threat to Josh's greatness.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Well, and like if we were gonna do I was
you probably been born yet like Boomer Sias and everybody
had the Quarterbacks club. So like Boomer Sias and Joe Montet,
like all the best quarterbacks in this like basically an
nil deal just for the quarterbacks. If you were gonna
do a modern day quarterbacks club, those three names are
the first three names you're gonna add, like you know,
like you're gonna bring in to Justin Herbert and some
(17:11):
other Obviously Pat Mahomes, Pat Mahomes will be the first name.
Those other three would be the next three that would
So of course Bill Span is weird right now, Bill
Bill Span is they're on the cusp of arrogance. They're
not quite there because they're a little unsure, but they
they realize.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
How good they are.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
And it's to be a team that got torn down,
especially on the defensive side of the ball, gave all
your biggest offensive weapon, all these things in the offseason
to the point where less educated sports fans than myself
thought they were in trouble. I knew, because I'm very smart,
that they were gonna be okay, but like they're better
(17:51):
than I thought they'd be already, and that defense gets
better every week.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
So Bill Span is sitting here like anytime it's.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
A conversation like that that like sensitive nature they've got
from the four losses and all that stuff. Every time
the conversation isn't about them, they get puffy. But dude,
don't get puffy, because there's a future where you play
each one of these guys on your way and.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
It's gonna be fun to watch. You sent this to
me earlier.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
There have been two instances in NFL history where QB
had thirty plus completions, three hundred plus passing yards, four
plus two TD passes, multiple forty plus yard TD passes,
no more than one interception, and yet they still lost.
Those two instances were Joe Burrow versus the Ravens in
(18:36):
Week five and last night. He's the only quarterback in
history to be so dominant and lost to a team twice.
And it's the same season, it's the same team. Insane
And like he I thought, Joe Burrow, he did a
really smart thing last night. Did you hear some of
his postgame? He got hit late, he got face masks,
(18:58):
neither got called, and instead of complaining, he said, I
never get those calls. Why would I expect them? See,
that is the perfect way to complain without complaining. Because
what that means now is somebody in league office has
to go to the refs and go, hey, we looked
(19:19):
at the film. He's not wrong. He is not wrong.
Get your act together. This is one of our young
stars and you're letting get abused. Like so I thought.
Ravens win, that's the number one thing. Ravens win, But
so many controversies coming out of it for the NFL and.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
The Bengals and Ravens always entertain Bengals and Ravens every

Speaker 2 (20:52):
All Right, let's I want to talk fantasy football. I
want to talk fast football.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
There's this not fair, and I know that I'm one
of the people who usually says there fair whatever, This
is not fair, and I want it. I want a
judgment and I want it handled, and I want to
do that next right here on Fox Sports Radio ninety
five nine and nine eight.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
It's Lovak and Guyz on ninety five nine Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
I had one of those.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Mornings where you get up and you know, you're like, wow,
that's a great game, and wow, I can't believe who
did this and this and this, and I start seeing
the posts and it's like, you know, just a beaten
man or whatever. And it's like the way it feels
to wake up and realize you're facing Jamar Chase and
fantasy football, and like one afterno that I'm seeing those
(21:43):
and that's pretty funny. I'm like, wait a minute, there's
no way I'm I'm not am I I mean, like,
because so we have the the iHeart League, which I
started one and two in. I lost to you in
week one, one week two, and I lost week three,
and since then I've been on I've been barnstorming, like
(22:04):
I'm what's seven and two right now or something like
that going into this week.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
An incredible run you've had for the Stallions of.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Yeah, yeah, the Stallions scouting service. And I'm like, I'm
playing a team that's ahead of me. So I I'm
basically playing for first place right now. I get up
Sporting and this the score is seventy two point eight
to seven point four. Ooh, I'm losing. After Thursday Night football,
(22:37):
I'm being given a sixteen percent chance of coming back.
I have only had Zay Flowers, who dropped a bunch
of balls seven point four. The person I'm playing has
Rashad Bateman seventeen point four and Jamar Chase fifty five
point four points out of one. Dude, if I get
(22:58):
fifty five points out of two players, I'm like, yeah,
let's freaking go.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
We're on our way. So I'm like, man, so I
screenshot that, I send it to you. You You're like,
oh no.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I'm like, yeah, that's not good man. I got I
got a big comeback to do here if I'm gonna
have a chance. And I started thinking, I'm like, there's
no way in my I have a dynasty league with
all the guys that I used to work with in
the NAL media in front offices. It's just not like
there's it's not yeah, yep, there's Jamar Chase fifty five
point four points.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
I'm like, come on.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
And then I'm in one more league, which is the
office for the for the Firebirds, and everybody has super
teams because it's a small league. I'm like, it's there's
no I'm playing coach Damon where there's And I'm like,
and I'm thinking to myself, I'm like, I know I've
got Derek he Wait, I'm sorry, I've got Lamar Jackson.
I'm doing well. He's got Derrick Henry and Jamar Chase.
(23:53):
So two players I'm getting beat sixty nine point five
to thirty three point nine. Now the thirty three is
one player, so I'm I'm I have a chance there.
But like, I'm in three fantasy leagues and I'm facing
Jamar Chase in all three. Jamar freaking Chase, you know,
the guy with eleven catches for two hundred and sixty
(24:15):
four yards and three touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
And we talked about this yesterday.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
If I'm not right, if there isn't already a contract
agreed to, the Bengals are the dumbest organization in the
history of man kind, because this is gonna be the
highest paid wide receiver a.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
A that performance that he had isn't the greatest fantasy
football performance of all time statistically, it might be.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
That's more of a you question. You're more nerdy like that.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
I'm gonna go to try to find that because that
might be the greatest single fantasy football performance ever buy
a wide receiver.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
I feel for you, leavec Did you.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
See some of the comments coming into your post today, oh, Man, Like,
and it's like people are with me, They're with me
on this.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
So I put it on Facebook because I've been getting more.
I'm getting more interaction on Facebook than anywhere lately. And
it's literally like one of my opponents at Burrow and Chase,
I'm already down eighty nine nothing. That's Ken, one of
my my cousin fires. Oh, I had a good start
in my league. He's got him scotty bing bang blame.
(25:20):
Talk about crappy luck like ouch will probably shouldn't buy
bother buying a lottery ticket.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
This week from Mario.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
Randy King, who used to work for US Fantasy Football
gods are very devious in their ways, dude, Bryan, guy
in my league has chased Lamar Mark and Andrews. He's
already has one hundred and fifteen points from this week
for three players. Yeah, I mean Joey Hassin, who's another
(25:53):
guy used to work with faced Henry and Saquan in
two leagues last week.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Feel you dog? Oh and so that's that's there.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
On acts, I will say that this is one of
the more active like with me not making a prediction
about the Raiders. This is one of my more active
tweets where I just say I'm in three fantasy football leagues,
face the Jamar Chase in all three leagues hashtag fantasy
bleeped Jason Romano. I'm in two of them, both leagues,
I'm facing Chase. Wait, in the wide world of sports
(26:24):
is going on here? I'm in three and all have Chase,
and all have Burrow and Burrow and two of them Nick, Like, dude, it's.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
That fifty five points out of one, dude, I have.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
This is the second greatest Fantasy football performance by a
wide receiver of all time.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
So all right, second grades, and this is I don't
think you'd.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Ever be able to get this. I wouldn't. There's no
chance I would have got that.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
I was already thinking it's not gonna be It's it's
like Chris Godwin or something like that. It's it's not
like a.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
It's not gonna be like a super well known guy.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Say he's not a Hall of Famer, but he probably
would be like a Hall of very good. I'll give
you the I'll give you the top five real quick.
I was gonna name the names of the players. A
guy named Drew Bennett from two thousand and four for
the Titans.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
I don't that was Titans. I have no idea.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Will Fuller, the fifth had won in two thousand and
nine the Texans YEP against the Falcons.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
Two. Didn't he have two games like that? He had
two monster games?
Speaker 4 (27:21):
Always got to hurt too.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Had won in Week sixteen against the Bears in two thousand.
The number two highest scoring Fantasy football performance by a
wide receiver in history was Week twelve in the COVID
year of twenty twenty, when Tyreek Hill went for that
monster game in that top Brady led Buccaneer game. Remember
in the first quarter, Tyreek Hill had two hundred and
three yards and two touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, that was sick.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
But the number one now.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Jamar Chase is now second all time in one of
the great performances three. The number one is in the
year two thousand, Week two and when the Jacksonville Jaguars
played the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Jacks. Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
Jimmy Smith.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Yeah, fifteen catches, two hundred and ninety one yards and
three touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
That was from Brunel right, I believe it was sixty.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Two fantasy points.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
Dear God, the Jimmy Smith two ninety one has gotta
be a top three receiving game.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
I bet of aall there's I would think the Raiders.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
I know Jerry Porter had a huge game one year
that I thought would have been not like close up there.
But yeah, there's just like randomly these dudes go off.
They just have the right matchup on a hot night
and they and your in trouble. But Jamar Chay, you know,
Jamar Chase is gonna be big.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
I want to go back to that point. Yes, I
want to go back to that point you had about
his contract. Didn't the Bengals just lose all the leverage,
Like you guys had a chance to lock him up.
He put up in a store performance. Because you know,
quarterbacks have set a new precedent for salary camp. Running
backs continue to be hard to figure out, especially after
that Chewba Hubberd deal yesterday. Jamar Chase is gonna go
to the Bengals and say, look what I just did
(29:00):
this season. I did everything I could win, lost Y
Staff one of the great games ever, top sixteen ever
in receiving yards, by the way, that Jimmy Smith game
rank seventh all time. He's gonna say, Okay, you don't
want to sign me, even though I have my college
teammate and the Burrow Chase connections.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Great.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
This is a situation in football, and there's probably maybe
ten or twelve guys that you can look at any
single team in the NFL and say he can work
on any single team in the NFL. Jamar Chase is
in that category.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
So your leverage that would be that you could franchise
tag for twenty like twenty two mil. However, let's not
forget that while he was fighting you over his contract,
he showed up like he has missed a game. He's
not Hasan Raddick, He's not He's not Emma Smith. He's
(29:52):
this is a guy who is disagreeing with you contractually
and still going to work. I would say it a
bit of a slow start, beca he missed the training
camp and stuff like that, but he's now in full
The reason you're still alive even though you've had a
bad start is this dude's next level and he can
put up two hundred yards against anybody with Joe Burrow
(30:13):
as his QB. Plus, you need to keep Joe Burrow happy. Yeah,
I did have no leverage. The only hope they have
is that I'm right. They've already agreed to a deal,
but they just haven't made a public and if that even.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
If that's the case, right now, I'm the agent looking
back and go it.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Hey, guys, by the way, going with the old Darth Vader,
we had a deal. I've altered the terms of our deal.
Pray I didn't alter it further.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Now this talk with Chase and contracts and the heartbreak
you and Jason Ermono and others have suffered in Joey
and Moore, let me get a little freaky on this Friday, Levac.
Let me tell us a wild ideal idea out here.
Fred Taylor freaky Freddie Jimmy Smith warmer teammate. Do you
think we should add new rules in fantasy football leagues
for this. Let me throw this one out here. I
have a friend who calls this a ghost lineup, and
(30:59):
I still put believe to this day. One day people
are gonna do this and find this is the way
people said fantasy lineups. He won't show you anybody on
his team, So when you open up the app, it'll
be like matchup versus the fighting preses. It'll be zero,
So you have no advantage when you play him. So
you like, let's say, for instance, you want to play
a defense. You don't know what defense he's gonna start
(31:20):
against his guys. You don't know if, like, for instance,
he's trying to play a wide receiver that your quarterback
is gonna throw to. He will ghost his lineup right
until Sunday morning, which is a little risky because if
you have bad internet, you can't put anybody in your life.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
You know, but who you know who's on his roster?
You just don't know who's gonna play.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Yes, but you'd be surprised. And I think we all
admit this. How often do you look at somebody's bench
in fantasy football? Usually know you just look, here's my
matchup is right, So that's one way to do it.
I've heard about vampire leagues where like you could pick
that right, you could pick somebody's player off and all
that stuff, or pick a whole team off. In some cases,
(31:56):
what do you make of this new one, the mulligan rule, Like,
let's play this out for you yesterday. Every fantasy football
league one player. Once a year, you get one mulligan. Now,
Either you can dump somebody out of your lineup. Let's say,
for instance, a game right like Brian Robinson was a
pregame scratch. You might have got this, but hey, I
(32:18):
had a zero in my lineup. I had a forty
on my bench. That's my one mulligan of the year.
Or you could use the mulligan against somebody like Levak's case,
Hey I get one mulligain Chases out of her lineup.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
Doesn't then could you double stamp it with her mulligan
or there mulligan and put Chase back in.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
I'm willing to talk about these ideas. I think it's
probably against the whole core of what is fantasy football,
but there is something cool about having these little niches
in certain leagues. There was that one thing that's gone
viral this year that one of the rules was that
if a quarterback made a tackle during the game, it
was ninety nine points. I'm gonna league that if a
fake extra point or a fake field goal or fake
(33:00):
punt is scored, it's an automatic six points for that defense.
That's a little I'm gonna have some bonus leagues. Every
league has to find their thing. I know it's probably
your answer is yes, because you've got pounded by Jamar Chase.
But I'm willing to hear people if they want to
do this Mulligan.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Rule at time.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
I I like, if the idea of every like once
a year you miss somebody on your bench, like I
because remember during COVID they were doing it. We were
in we were in leagues where if you let the
guy know, like hey if this person, if if so
and so's out for COVID, I get to put this
person in. And I was like, I wasn't really with it,
(33:36):
because hey, pay attention, you know what I mean, Like,
I'm sorry, part of the part of the deal. Pay attention,
But like, I don't hate the idea of one Mulligan
a year, like pay for it. So it goes into
the championship pot too, because you think about it. If
everybody pays twenty five bucks for their Mulligan. All right,
you're in you know, twelve person league. You know you're
sitting there like, all right, listen, we just we just
(33:57):
floaded the uh the old the old prize spot up,
you know, a considerable amount now where there's actually three
hundred dollars to the to the prize pot, or maybe
that's the fee for the commission to run the league,
something like that.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
I don't hate it because that mu I think you
have a rule to like, if you're gonna use the Mulligan,
you can't wait till it's all said and done, like, oh,
I'm just gonna give myself the win.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
That that might be again all right, but but I
would ask I would add that there's like a retroactive
Mulligan on top.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
So so like, all right, so you and I play
each other.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
I left Jamar Chase on my bench for some on
on all the Ravens defense is getting better.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
He was on a bye week forgot us a Thursday game.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Something change it over.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Uh, you win by forty nine points, So I go out, Mulligan,
I put my fifty five points and I win the game.
You could go, yeah, you know what, mulligan, I got
a guy who outperformed this other guy.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Boom, you still win.
Speaker 3 (34:51):
But it's weball like two points now, Like that's the
thing is like you gotta yeah, like you want to
make it and like like now you're gonna pay attention
like he already uses mulligan. Because if he already uses mulligan,
bleep him. I'll take him down. I don't want to
waste my mulligan still get a loss.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
You hold your mulligan to the championship.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
Oh no, it's gotta be used during the regular season.
It's gotta being the playoffs. I don't hate the idea
of a mulligan during the regular season because there's a
lot of strategy around that.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
The postseason.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
You imagine if you're going up against somebody in the
championship game and you're watching the whole time, you're like,
oh no, they could just they still well.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Eight points, you know, ten points a kicker somebody picks
up like a bunch of kickers on their bench defense.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Do you like, ah, mulligan, I put this in and
like not a I still got mine too. Here you go.
Speaker 4 (35:39):
It would make it much more exciting in certain matchups.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Probably not for us if we were involved in the
Mulligan game and it would break our heart at the
Jeff Lovak at Tom Goss tmgozz.
Speaker 4 (35:48):
If you like the idea of.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
After the Jamar chase a fantasy Mulligan in leagues, and
if you don't play fantasy football, and maybe you've been
always thinking about doing it, maybe that's your thing. Hey,
we gonna do fantasy football next year and we are
the Mulligan League.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
I want to do the zombie or vampire league where
it's like so one. So let's say it's a it's
a ten person league. One team doesn't get to draft,
so everybody drafts their team and then afterwards, So I'm
the zombie, I'm I'm the vampire. I go build my
team from free agents Week one. Somehow I get lucky,
I beat you, I get to take one of your players.
(36:25):
So now I've got I've got this on there, and
I don't like there's a point where you come back
to life like something like that, but it's but it's
just such a such an evil way to do it.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
I love it. You gotta be so good at a
waiver wire.
Speaker 1 (36:41):
I'm curious how those teams have done have they won
because the waiver wire so many teams. You can win
a league, no doubt with Like what you drafted compared
to what you finish with is rarely ever the same team.
Speaker 3 (36:49):
Yeah, I'm I'm so into that. I want to try
that one of these years. But we don't have the
right fans, the right people to do it, because you can't.
You can't just because it's a waste of money. If
the person has no idea how to do a football
and they get stuck with the zombie and.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
Let's say, all of a sudden, you want to pick
somebody off and you got like Christian McCaffrey out a
week water week two.
Speaker 4 (37:06):
That's probably what we're on now. You're done your toast.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
By the way, Buccaneers are facing McCaffrey this week, aren't they.
We'll get to that later. Zombe, zombe, did you all right?
We we got a big show still like this. We're
just getting started.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
We're in studio Tony Kahan coming up, major, major cool
event going on in the Capitol region for a good cause.
That's coming up in the third hour. Next Club option,
lame duck. A lot of terms being thrown around the
New York Yankees organization. Right now, we got that fo
you come up next, right here, Fox Sport Radio in
nine eighty.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
It's slow backing Guz on the voice of the Capitol
Regions sports fan Fox Sports ninety five, nine and nine eighty.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
The Yankees have exercise their twenty twenty five club option
on manager Aaron So he will be back for the
twenty twenty five season. For people wanting him fired, wanting
him gone, ain't gonna happen. Brian Cashman obviously not going
anywhere either or else. He would have not been at
the team meetings, the GM meetings.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
The only thing is, and.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
Look, you there's a really great argument for keeping him.
So he's fifty one years old, he's got six hundred
and three wins, four hundred and twenty nine losses. That's
a five to eighty four record. He's had postseason birth
in six of his seven seasons. He's you know, he's
he's done. The team has succeeded under the management of Boonie.
(38:42):
The problem is the team has not had the ultimate
success under Boonie. They haven't won a World Series yet.
So what do you do is is but like What
worries me is, isn't this a lame duck situation? Like
he's not extended? Are they gonna extend him further? Like
(39:05):
if you play under him, you know that he might
not be there next year? Oh, I would Is that more.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Of a football thing than a baseball thing? Well?
Speaker 4 (39:16):
What the lame duck?
Speaker 3 (39:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (39:17):
Extending?
Speaker 3 (39:18):
Yeah, I don't think so. Feel it's more of a
football thing. I feel like football coaches that are lame
ducks play players. Players are just like, Ah, I'm gonna
be here next year.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
You're not.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
But I like it feels like for baseball it's more
because of the pharmcistem Like we see a lot of teams.
The Yankees aren't like this, but we saw a lot
of teams. The Braves are an example of this. I
want to say the Tigers might have been an example
of this, where they'll let a manager suck, like they
know they're gonna lose ninety or one hundred games and
they're gonna let that manager eat it. And then right
(39:48):
when it turns and the minor league guys start to
come up, they fire the manager and bring up the
minor league guy who the young prospects played for and
he becomes the voice in the locker because they like
him and he was their coach, and that's usually a
baseball thing where they almost know going in they're gonna
be out. I would not think Boone's a lame duck, though,
because I could see why the Yankees, on like any
(40:09):
other franchise, could say we didn't win the World Series,
we are not going to extend you.
Speaker 4 (40:13):
It would actually be more of a.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
Story and I think it would actually get Yankee fans
more worked up if Boone got an extension. He hasn't
done anything, is even better than Girardi. He's the worst
Yankee manager of my lifetime because he hasn't won a championship.
Those are realistic takes that could have gained from Yankee
fans if they announced an extension. So they laid it
out for Boone, here's your season, twenty twenty five, twenty
(40:35):
twenty six. We'll find out maybe twenty twenty five we're
gonna get it done. If not, we're on to the
next one. Because we've given you every resource, every way
to win. We've been good, but we can't say, well,
let me ask that question out you real quick. It
was the right move to get rid of Girardi, right, Like,
is it too simple? Like, oh, he didn't win a
World Series, so he's not better enjoy I don't think
it's that simple because it feels like, now, hindsight being
(40:57):
what it is, it felt like the right move to
bring Boone because he's always been good.
Speaker 3 (41:02):
It's it's tough because I think what it comes down
to is your philosophy on how the Yankees are run.
Like if you if you're not a Cashman fan, you
probably are very, very not okay with Girardi being fired
because Girardi would pushed back once in a while. Some
would say that's why they actually won, you know, in
(41:24):
nine is a little pushback. Boone doesn't seem to do that.
I mean maybe maybe something happen again the scenes that
we're unaware of, but at least the outside looking in,
it appears as though he's a company man. You know,
he does what he's told analytically by by Cashman.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (41:40):
I I think, yes, I I don't. I don't think
they would be that much more successful if Girardi had
stayed than giving it to Boone. Boone is one of
three managers in Yankee history to make the postseason six
of his first seven seasons.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
That's an incredible stat. Into Girardi's comparison, he went to Philly,
Philly was doing fine, they got rid of him. They
got a lot better without Girardi, So that always hurt
his perception around the league.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
And that's what's interesting.
Speaker 2 (42:06):
He won with the Marlins, he did.
Speaker 4 (42:07):
I believe that was pre Yankees.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
No, yeah, yeah, you want the manager of the year,
and then I think I think it was manager of
the year fired, and then the Yankees picked him up.
It was weird that talent of Girardi's ten years because
Don Manning Lee's also in that mix two for the
Marlins at one point. But I also wonder, like, okay,
we talked about contracts and what's the future. Other teams
would want Aaron Boone, right, because that's also hard to
(42:30):
evaluate Boone, that Boone had no previous managerial experience, and
he gets undercut nationally because it's like, well, you got
the Yankee roster, what are you really doing? Is there
a huge market for Aaron Boone if he left? That's
also tough to evaluate in that spot.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
Yeah, I don't, I don't. Yeah, he I think he
would be. I think you you would definitely give him
a shot if you needed. Like, like I said, he's
been successful, He's only fifty one. You love I mean
I personally. I love the way he fights the refs.
I love that he's willing to get kicked out of
a game to rile up the team. I don't know
if the team gets his riled up anymore. I mean,
(43:06):
you might need Brett Gardner and they're smacking a bat
into the to the dugout too. But no, he's he's
done a great job, and he is not great. He's
done a very good job. A World series when he
done a great job. But like there's people who believe
he's just a puppet. That's the problem.
Speaker 2 (43:20):
What do you believe?
Speaker 3 (43:21):
Do you believe that he takes the information given him
by the intellect nerds and manages the game or do
you believe that he just takes the information given him
by the analytic nerds and then implements it. That's what
that's the argument for Boone and extending his contract into
twenty twenty five by taking that club option doesn't really answer.
(43:43):
It just means he's still here, you know what I mean,
Like they like him. I almost kind of wish he
was a lame dog because, like Kylie, would you know,
you look at the Trump situation. He can't be reelected.
There's no there's another Donald Trump. Hold onto your seat.
He can do whatever he wants. What are you gonna
do to him? You've already tried to assassinate him, You've
alread tried to impeach him. He already tried to put
(44:05):
him in jail, and now he's here, Like, what are
you gonna do?
Speaker 2 (44:07):
Where?
Speaker 3 (44:08):
Like if if I'm Aaron Boone and I'm looking around,
I'm thinking what you're thinking? Guy's like, ha, I think
other teams would hire me. And I think the only
thing hold me back right now with the Yankees is
the fact that I don't push back enough. So guess
what I'm gonna do in twenty twenty five. I'm gonna
do it my way. If I get fired, so be it.
If if we went it all, I'm gonna get a
nice contract extension.
Speaker 4 (44:27):
Was it limp Biscuit my way or the highway?
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (44:30):
A new aeron Boone. He's riding in the car the nookie.
