Speaker 1 (00:04):
The NFL is ready to dip into your pocketbook a
little bit more. I don't know, they're running out of
money and ideas, so they've come from another one.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Yeah, to be honest, they don't get any of my
money whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Well, they may get some money for this one, all right,
because the NFL is announcing its rivalries uniform Okay. This
is much like the NBA's City connect uniforms.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Okay, So starting in twenty.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Twenty five and rolling out over the next couple of years,
the teams will gradually They're not going to do everybody
this year.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
They'll do some this year, some next year, and some
in twenty twenty seven.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
And because the NFL is home to some of the
biggest rivalries they're going to have, they're going to unveil
their rivalry jersey and teams will be required to play
in them at least.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
One home game a year.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Required, required, mandated, not voluntary. It's you're gonna like it.
It's actually a four year rollout. So in twenty twenty
twenty five, it's gonna be the Bills, Dolphins, Patriots, Jets, Seahawks, Cardinals,
Rams in forty nine.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Ers, AFC East, and NFC West will be this year, and.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Then in twenty twenty six it's the AFC South and
NFC North, and then in twenty twenty seven AFC North, No,
NFC East and AFC West, and in twenty twenty seven
it will be or twenty eight it will be the
AFC North in the NFC South.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Good because by twenty twenty seven, Jerry's gonna sit there
and tell Goodell.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
You ain't changing my jersey. You're not telling me.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Changes the jersey all the time. They have they they
they change the jerseys as Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
They have well, they have the they have the color rush,
they have the blue, they have the blue with the
they got.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
The white all white, which is a throwback.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Yeah yeah, but it's still a different jersey than the
standard jersey. They are in standard jersey as the silver
pants and the white and the white or or the
silver and the blue on top. They are not I
guarantee you Jerry's gonna say, uh, listen, mister not mister Goodell.
He's gonna be like, listen here, Roger, You're not mister Jones,
You're not gonna change my jersey.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
You're not gonna tell me that I have to wear this.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
It's gonna be a it's gonna be uh something of
a throw another edition of their throwback.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
It should I I don't want You're not going to
change the colors of the teams. You damn well better
hope not. You want to talk about the mutiny right there,
and I want to talk about Andy Everett style mutiny
of burn those jerseys, my especially if you lose it,
especially well you and Chris dou will have this idea
that the Cowboys have a blue jersey.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
James, I do not Chris.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Chris is and even though Chris Duwele has announced his
Cowboys fandom, but that goes back to the Super Bowl
five and they to the original mister Cowboy.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
If I'm not mistaken, Bob Lily as the NFL made
them those.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
I think it was Super Bowl five or six that
they had to wear the blue jerseys. And listen, I
am color challenged when it comes to seeing things, but
it helps. But I think the Cowboys look better in
the blue jerseys than when they're not in the blue jerseys.
I understand that they won all their games and the
white ones, but I actually liked the look when they're
in the blue better, and I wish they would wear
(03:22):
it more often, of course, because you want to blue, No,
I don't. I just think when I turn on TV,
I want to see something that.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
There's two things. I want to see traditionalism.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
I want to see tradition, but I also but well three,
I want to see traditionalism.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
But I want to see.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
The most color I can because there's some colors I
can't see.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yes, So when one year I hated this.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
One year Utsa played Rice and Utsa wore blue jerseys
and white pants, and Rice wore white pants or blue
pants and white jerseys.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
I was like, they basically look like they boards.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Yeah, going across, I'm like, can we bring out the
orange ones for this game?
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Please?
Speaker 3 (04:05):
I remember when you told me about I want to
say it was maybe fifteen or sixteen when they introduced
the like the whole color rush.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
It was the Jets and the Bill.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Jets and Bills played a Thursday night game and they
allowed them to both wear lad and green. Yeah, red
and green. It were like, I can't tell whose who
had We left for about a football road trip the
next day and somebody said, did you watch the game?
Speaker 3 (04:30):
I have no idea who won? I don't know who won.
Some team won some other times they did have.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
The Jets where green helmets and the Bills wore white helmets,
so helmet wise I could tell, But as players were
coming together for tackles, I didn't know who had the ball,
didn't know whose hand was on it.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Here again, for Andy Everett, it's being able to being traditional.
Give me the white jerseys at home. Give me whatever
dark color you're road jersey is.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
That's why Indiana, Golden State or the Lakers. You can
wear gold at home or white at home. I don't
really care, but I hate it when you wear purple
at home or black black at home for Indiana or whatever.
What's some where your secondary color. They have like fourteen
jerseys now that they wear at home.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
There's blue. One of them is blue.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Yeah, but that and then being able to read the
back of the names, the names, I just need the numbers.
Du Cane, we will, we will go back to Duquine again.
You missed your opportunity for free advertising because you couldn't
read the back of the jersey.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Or the front of it either.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
You got to You got to the NCAA tournament for
the first time since nineteen sixty nine and nobody knew
who you are.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Nobody knew who you were. That's bad marketing. Couldn't read it.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
But again, yeah, Jerry's gonna go and say listen here,
little Roger.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
He's gonna say, yes, sir, mister Jones.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I don't think the jersey's gonna change it, like the
Spurs don't change their colors when they go to the
City connect I mean they go.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
From they put in some Fiesta colors or whatever, but
it's still a white jersey. No, it's not. It's the
teal blue. Well, that city jerseys are tee well, the
one that.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
The one that they were wearing one of the last
games of the season was that's the city. That's the
city jersey that you're telling me, that's teal it's a
teal blue. Well that that goes well, that's a The
teal was one of the Fiesta colors though, wasn't it
no actual teal green.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
This is a light.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
You're trying to confuse me now between teal blue and
teal green.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I can't tell the difference.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
It's it trusts me it is and Bill showing it's
a blue. It's a very teal blue. What they consider
it is teal blue. The year before when they unveiled
the Fiesta colors jersey, it actually was flat out white.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
You're telling me that, you know, I apologize the rady
audience that jersey is not light.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
And Shane, tell me again, because you did a couple
of games and you even.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Saw Dylan Emery who felt, who felt?
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Who does the Spurs broadcast and also tend to noon
on Sundays for the fanatics with y'all.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
He has a jersey?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
What color does Bill Showing say when the city jerseys?
It's teal teal that that one there, that one there
that is teel blue. This year it's a very faint teal.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Yeah, it's very I can go cream and off white.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
It's eggs shale.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
But it doesn't look blue to me in any shape.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Crossy. It's teal blue.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
I'm I'll take your word for it, but that does
not register on my color spectrum.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
No, exactly.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Yeah, So as long as as long as we don't
mess with the star, we don't mess with the helmet,
we don't. It's it's still the blue or the silver
or the white.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
That's what we're going for.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
We're not changing the font of cowboys on the jersey. Roger, Hey, Jerry,
I need you to go like Pittsburgh Steeler and put
the star on one side of the helmet.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Click. I've never I know there's a reason I still
to the state. I don't understand. I don't know why
they do that either. I don't know anyways, all right,
rant over all right.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
But anyway, the NFL is gonna do this, uh, and
we'll see what all these look like it's gonna be.
They're not going to change the color I don't think
they're going to change the color pattern. And I'm sorry,
but when I see this picture of the Spurs City connect,
it does not look teal to me in any shape
or form.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
It's it's teal.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
But but if it's teal, if I had to call
a Spurs game, I would go h. I would actually
nudge Walter Stoops to go what color is that?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
I guarantee you here, I'm gonna I do the.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Same thing with UTSA games is like, Okay, they're getting
ready to break the huddle. We're in the commercial break,
you know, going up, And so I played like a
fifteen second cut from the coach Keys to the game,
and here's the coach, and so I'll push my mic
into the intercom and I'll nudge whoever is with me
and go, what color is the other team's jerseys?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
I'm gonna I'm gonna give Shane a project that we
can do in the next break, Shane, go grab in
the archives.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Go grab Bill's introduction of the I don't disagree.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
He's going to are wearing their city and addition, the
Fiesta colors with the brown trim and the teal blue.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Good for I don't do.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I'm not saying it's not the case, but Bill is
obviously not as color challenges or a color challenge at all,
and I'm not seeing anything that resembles a teal.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
That's what the organization put out. They they legit on
the website. It's it's teal blue. We're gonna solve this.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
In the I'm not disagreeing with you.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
A teal is a greenish blue colored at described as
a dark shade of blue green. Yes, okay, I got
samples here and they don't look like the uniform. But anyway,
that's enough of that, all right, We'll get into something
really important next.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
I'm the ticket
