Lie mean line, mean line, bean line.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Be Oh my god, little delay, But fear not, we're
here to light the beam here for another Thursday night
edition of the Sports Cave with biggest Puma. I'm surprised
we'll get into it here in a second. This will
be this destroys the run sheet, at least the top

(00:30):
of it. But I'm surprised we were only five minutes
late here tonight, because I thought we were gonna be
an hour late, judging by the judging by the way
sixteen oh four looks right now. If you are driving
anywhere in this city, avoid you should always avoid sixteen
oh four, like the plug, but certainly tonight out here

(00:50):
at two eighty one area. It is a absolute s show.
But we're here, we are in the room. It's gonna
take me in to unwind. I didn't get to burn
my full pre show heater. We might be a little
scrambled tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
But some people are doing their own Charlie uh in
the mail room thing. They're gonna put a little pins
the conspiracy. Yeah, be like we're narrowing down LG's.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Yeah, they're starting to triangulate. Yeah, sorry, LG. I might
have given I might have given too much info. Oh
my god, we have a full show. I'm glad we
didn't get delayed too much because we have a lot
to get to tonight. Of course, Thursdays kind of serve
as our weekend football preview. I will set up NFL

(01:37):
Week six. We'll get our picks. We didn't report on
our picks Tuesday. I realized we uh.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Oh yeah, so we picked the same thing. So it
was like except for the one you had me on,
one I had you on. I thought I went full
Now you you switched up one of them. So we'll
get into that, okay, and and get our picks for
I need that point.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Get our Yeah, I'm making sure you get it. We'll
get into our picks for this week as well. Of course,
a lot of NFL talk, a lot of cow notes
to get.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
To the funny guys, they continued, It is like judge,
they continue to be, uh, a roaming mash unit of
a football team. But uh, and of course it's Red
River week.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
So we got a little bit of news about OU's
quarterback John Mattier potentially playing, so we'll get into all
that as well as some of the matchups. Got a uh,
got a pretty explosive lightning round including some uh trio
of local news stories that will close out with tonight that.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
Had a lot of uh had a lot of activity.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
In our fair Bourg over the last week that I've
been holding on to. I like closing out. I like
using lightning around to hit on a little bit of
local news. So yeah, uh, this tonight we have even
more local news accompanied by video and audio, so we'll
get to that to close out the show. I've of course,

(03:11):
we start with what I watched, but before we get
into all of that, I before we even get into
another round to show, until I've got for you boys,
got to start with we are less.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Than two weeks away from Spurs opening night. I can't wait.
So is it gonna be on one of our days?
Or is it on it's Wednesday? Yeah, I figured it's
gonna because it's thirteen days from tonight and tonight it's Thursday. Well,
I just know, have you ever noticed at the beginning
of the basketball season always starts on Wednesday, like the
premiere games? Yes, seemingly, Yeah, I think it's uh they

(03:45):
do it to not because it's in between football.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
Well, and they would do the same way with like
Tuesday T and T where they would normally have Thursday nights,
but during the first half of the year they would
do Tuesday games so they wouldn't get in the way
of football. Of course, we do have Thursday night football
to be distracted by as well.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
A lot. We're juggling a lot. So without further ado,
let me wait a minute. I didn't go over the
run sheet. LG didn't go over the run sheet.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
This is so scrammed, but we're gonna we're all going
to be learned.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
I didn't even go over the run sheet. I wrote
this thing six hours ago, like I don't even know
what the hell we're doing. A man, I almost broke
my rule.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
I've I have yet to burn any tobacco product in
in the forerunner.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Well let's let's let's go ahead. It's almost rule. It'mates,
it's it's more of a respect. So she was trying
to talk. She was rich.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
She could tell my anxiety was climbing exponentially as I
was stuck on the loop, stuck on the overpass out
here with nowhere to go. She suggested that I break
the rule, and that that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
I stood as firm as I could.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Which also allowed me to just kind of stew more
because I'm a bit of a I like to stew
when I'm anxious. I don't like to actually solve the
problem or relieve the situation.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
I like to be angry. Yeah, a lot of muttering,
a lot of muttering.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
Yeah, very very milton esque office space. But before we
go any further, I've got to tell you it is
National Curious Events Day. When I first read it, I thought,
what the hell are we talking about? But then I realized,

(05:40):
like the little kid in me flashed back to reading
books about like the Bermuda Triangle or dB Cooper or
you know, watching.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
That's such a broad statement, Like can we like curious
events are unknown treasures? Or like it's October, so everything's
gotta be serious places.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
Yeah, I gotta be a little spooky. You gotta have
a little bit of seasonal flair. Speaking of seasonal flair,
U LG. Why don't you tell the good people and
show the good people how they can help support the program?

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Sure, go ahead and subscribe.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
There you got there. The blood, the blood, the blood.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
We can we can do super chats now, so jump
in the super chat. We had a few last time,
yeah and there and the captain and then has promised
to read them at the point.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
Dig the knife into me a little bit about my Yankees.
We're gonna have plenty of time for that. We got
to cover the news. We got a couple of minutes
for that. We've got it. We've got a run sheet.
I don't know, judging by judging, we're gonna choice words.
He was a beast this season. He stuck out in
that last play to parents. Uh as l G says,

(06:58):
I can go pitch by pitch my last plate appearance.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
As LG said, the main way you can help us
right now is giving us give us a subscription there
on YouTube, because as we continue to climb closer to
one thousand, that'll cost you absolutely nothing. Will never take
a penny from your bank account for that. All it
does is help us, I hear, it helps us get
served in the algorithm a little better as we continue.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
To be playing with the LG's oh stop Alexa, oh
just like just curse at or be like turn off
your forever. I was about to say, you absolutely are
the You absolutely are the guy I would expect to
get into a heated debate with Alexa. Did you know
that they're teaching like, well, supposedly the Tesla robot is

(07:47):
learning hand to hand combat. What is it a transformer?
Is it a Oh they're like the worker robots. Yeah,
Like does it need to know you know, jiu jitsu
ung fu? What if someone tries, who's going to hit
a robot? It's metal?

Speaker 2 (08:04):
What if someone tries to break in and rob the
Tesla factory? They need some they need some defense mechanisms.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
We don't. We can't hire good hardworking Americans. We like guns, buddy.
Oh now now let's give the robots some guns. How
about that? Yeah? What could go wrong? That could go wrong?

Speaker 2 (08:20):
I feel the day that might be the last human
job robots take a security guard.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
But that might also that's probably the first job, man.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
The first one is like, you know, just data entry people,
you know, stuff that AI can just do easy.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
But but that's not a robot doing it. That's just
the computer program. It's an actual robot. That's where I say,
if that if that's the last job, they literally you're
literally paying a guy to sit on his ass, that
might be the last job that keeps us out free
as a human race. I do I like it.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
Yeah, we're I'm telling you as I was, as we
were trying to get out here in time, I was,
I was worried I was going to immediately blow our
FCC cover within the first ninety seconds too. Before we
get into what I watched, of course, we're gonna talk
some of the baseball I do have a little show
and tell relating back to Tuesday, so.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
You remember I threw it out there.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
We were watching some of the ACL sets from Weekend
one last week, and one of the best sets we
watched was a Wet Leg, a British punk band Awesome
the Wet Leg so their drip their album titled Moisturizer is.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
It's playing hard on that list. Absolutely.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
If it's not number one in my album rankings so
far this year, really, then the number one on my
list hasn't come out If it's not this one. And
the great roommate that she is got this for me.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
Look at it? Can you see it? Yeah? Oh yeah,
it's what do you call those I don't know, It's like, yeah, yeah, there, No,
it's not a hologram where you switched it back and forth.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Something like that. So if for those that are only
listening to this. It's got it's got a funky cover
where you hold it one way and you see her smiling.
You hold it the other way and you see her
giving like demon. Look nails, her nails are problematic. Look
at look at those nails, though.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
I know that's what I'm look at the one in
our hair. It's the same nails, all of them, all
of them.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
It's everything about it is spectacular. And the roommate heard
me say that Tuesday night and ordered that on express delivery,
So compliments to her literally came in this afternoon. I
haven't even had a chance to open it up and
listen to it. I'm trying to delay, so you don't
have to talk Yankees yet.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
No, we can talk Yankees. Man. Well let's get into
it then. What a great season, What a great season.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
We'll start with what I watched, as we normally do
on Thursday, and I think what we've all been watching
is a lot of baseball since we last spoke on
Tuesday night. Yankees bow out in Game four at home
in front of the Bronx faithful.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Wow, who would have believed it was gonna be our
bullpen to blow it for us? At the end.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
It kind of feels like you've been saying that since
we started this six months ago.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
Look at the rookie Cam Slittler man, he sliced and diced,
only gave up one earned run even though it was
Jazz Chisholm, which is a he's our Manu ginobili as.
I was trying to tell my bother you better be
careful though that is I am careful. Hi. He's a
thirty for thirty guy. Man, he's thirty for thirty, but

(11:35):
he will just make you just like, what are you doing?
And then he'll make some spectacular play, be like all
is forgiven, All is forgiven? Okay in that sense, I
can see where you're coming from. Yes, I still remember
Game seven against Dallas when I'm in Port at a
restaurant with the fam just letting out all sorts of

(11:58):
explicits when he fouled Dirk on a layup when they
were three points up.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Yeah, allowed them to force overtime and eventually win it
for the MAVs to pass the spurs.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Against an aging shack in the first time Dwayne Wade,
which we would have locked down Dwayne.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Or the or the NBA would have given Dwayne Wade
as many free throws against y'all as he did Dallas,
because the last three games of that series, Dwayne Wade
shot more than the entire Dallas Mavericks team.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Forgot. Yeah, Dallas knows that game.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
Well, that was six. I was two, I was twenty
years old. I was two years removing. I was still
living in a MAVs viewing area at that point, and
the MAVs hadn't completely sold their soul to the devil
and absolutely lost me as a fan for life, as
we talked about a couple of months ago.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
Yeah, no it, we'll see where your fandom comes in
thirteen days.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
I can tell you right now where it's at in
thirteen days. It is with the two, no question, there
is no And I've had to explain it to family members,
like there's there's nothing like I supported that team when
they were signing Dennis Rodman off the street to try
to sell tickets, like I like that version of the

(13:16):
Mavericks will never be back where it.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
Will celebrate Mark Cuban trying to rehab Delonte West. Yeah, exactly, exactly.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Some of the when Mark Cuban was working at a
dairy queen because he got fined half a million dollars
because he said the head of officiating couldn't even manage
a dairy queen and needed to be fired.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
Like all of that good will shout out dairy queen,
tasty treats and good eats. Ate it for lunch today.
Actually that is a true story, because I still hit
the steak fingers. Gotta be stated one of us. Okay,
that's weird you say that, but yes, that's exactly what
it was. With gravy, of course, yes, of course if
we can call that gravy, well we do.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
We do for the sake of my mental health because
I ate the entire little thing of it. The last
French fry getting everything out of the bottom. Yeah, I
I mean looking at that Yankees Toronto series overall it Yes,
the bullpen obviously, but I think you have to also
look at the offense. Thirty two runners left on base

(14:19):
over the court, Like, that's eight guys left on base
on average each one of those.

Speaker 1 (14:23):
Given, you gotta take advantage. Yesterday's game, we didn't have
a runner in scoring position till I think the sixth
or seventh inning, so our hitting a didn't show up. Oh,
you got to catch that the you know this, like
the hitters didn't show up except for Judge, who gets
an A plus in my rating. He's a winner, so

(14:47):
it's Schlitler, he's a winner. I got some but I
got some cam audio, some cam s audio for you
in the X file segment coming very nice, very nice.
And but you know who fails is our two star
our aces in Toronto. We need to get one of
those games, Rodin and Freed, you know. And they just

(15:08):
didn't come through. Man, they didn't last four innings, either
of them. So it's just and then we're gonna put
it heavy on our bullpen, like that's not our strength,
our strength those two. So that's an uphill battle. I
didn't see it coming through, you know. Uh the third game,
Oh well, the first game was a bullpen game I

(15:29):
forgot because they did come through against Boston, which makes
it a successful year when you beat Boston in the playoffs.
I will always applaud you, I think until you get
that twenty eighth World Series. Hey, I remember trying to
get the twenty seventh World what's the last? When was
the last one? Oh nine? Okay, so sixteen years, ten years,

(15:50):
what's the when's the last time the Yankees went sixteen
or more years without winning, it's got to be the eighties, right,
even even further, Reallylly, I think this might be one
of our longest This might be the longest. It feels
like it's probably the longest of our lifetimes. Oh yeah,
of our lives for sure. If you're under forty, I

(16:13):
think no. Because we usually pulled one out a decade
every decade. To get twenty seven, we got to win
one every decade. I think this is the longest dry
spell of a chip that we've gone. That would be like, obviously,
don't quote my facts because up here it means something.
Out there, it's completely different. Let's see. Okay, you're closing

(16:35):
in on it. Seventy eight to ninety six, so it
was the eighties. Yeah, so seventeen eighteen years seasons. Yeah,
eighteen years, seventeen seasons. Okay, so we so you're one more,
got two more? Oh yeah? Two? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (16:51):
So past that, I thought, y'all, I mean, last night's game,
it was, what was it five to one? But then
y'all had the basis loaded in the eighth and until
they go to their closer Hoffman, and we had the base.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
The bases load in the eighth and we still had
men on to tie it in the ninth. In the ninth, yeah,
after getting the just of course, they intentionally walk Judge
in the ninth. He had an egregiously low and outside
call for strike one, which totally changed the bat in
the eighth. And I'm like, I can't wait for next

(17:26):
year for like to correct these umps in their strike calls.
Because Judge is statistically the highest the person he double
digits the next person. That makes sense because low strike, Yeah,
because Twis's as tall as the next exactly as the
average MLB player. The whole argument is they have a
strike zone and they do it for an average person.

(17:48):
But then you get six foot eight Judge and six
foot seven John Carlow. I call Michael because he didn't
show up last night. Your mom named of Michael. I'm
calling you Michael at six L two on the send
where it's so I can't wait for next year, And
I had it written down here, what does next year include?

(18:10):
Aaron Boone? No, you think he's gone? Wait, let me
ask you. Do you think he's gone or do you
just want him gone and think he'll be back? There
was like a pulling like even in the Boston series,
he pulled free too early. We lost that one where
we had to like fight and come back and not

(18:31):
be fresh. He should have like he should have pinched
run John Carlow when he got on in the in
the seventh. He hasn't been hidden for anything. But yes, yes,
let's wait for that back to become alive. But it hasn't,
so don't rely on it at the end of the game.
Start using your pinch hitters, not in the ninth, but

(18:54):
in the seventh and in the eighth where Ben Rice
could have came out. Who has been a chance, who
has had his moment in the last series with Boston
him the Grand Slammy, you know, And there's just so
many moves he could have done. And something in my
cup is a it's not kind of I'm drinking a

(19:18):
moth a little flavor in there, but it's just in
all year, he's big, questionable calls and yes he's fiery,
he gets him up. But one too many years of
us not underperforming with our bats when we have when
we pay, we got like one of the top five

(19:40):
salaries in the league. We got Judge in his prime
right now doing things no other batter has ever done,
you know, ala Barry Bond style and you can't waste it.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
Well, you mentioned speaking of that specifically, you mentioned the
bats not you know, coming through last night. You look
at who bookended Aaron Judge, It was Grisham over five
and then Belly Gris over five as well. So the
two guys right around Judge were oh for ten.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
Yeah, Belly Belly even coming into the playoffs was in
a slump, but he was great. He almost hit three hundred. Yeah,
you know regularly thirty home runs. How long's Boone been there? Now?
He has been there? I think nine years? Oh my god.
Really he's been there through the whole astros So he's

(20:31):
working backwards. So what's that like, twenty sixteen, I think, yeah,
twenty fifteen, maybe twenty either twenty way he's been there.
Twenty fourteen to twenty sixteen is when I'd like, that's
where my fuzz comes back in. Yeah, that's nine to
eleven years roughly. Yeah, yeah, Aaron Boom, I'm gonna say sixteen.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
But do you know, looking at the Yankees performance, uh,
just specifically against Toronto this year eleven and six. Now,
when you include the postseason games. It was eight and
five before the series started.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
Is there, ah? Is it as simple as replacing Boone
and storing up the bullpen a little better and then
you feel like you're back in Toronto's league? Or is
I guess I should say, is Toronto a team that
you are now feel like you're looking up at going

(21:27):
into next season? Or is the confidence there'll be Okay, No,
we still run the division because, as we say, Gladdy's
only twenty six. Hey Cole, Hey, Vladdie e much respective
lad he had a down year, dude, Yeah, he's just
a Yankee killer. He dove into that plate though, Like, yeah,
he's a Yankee killer, like a seaman. He hates something

(21:48):
because of his father. He like literally his father was like,
I will never play for the Yankees, and neither will
my son.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
So I could have done something really cruelty, but I didn't.
I almost sent l G the clip of Vladdie doing
the the Yankees.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
It's like, yeah, the poppy, Yeah, yeah, I get you,
But it's also, what's his name? What was it? Let
him have their moment? What was the what's the line
of sterling? Right John? The Yankees? The Yankees lose ye
did it first, of course, and he kind of egged
him on on that one. Yeah, he set him up. Yeah,
twenty eighteen, twenty eighteen, so seven seven seasons. Now it

(22:29):
would be eight if they they brought him in right
after we lost to the Astros in judges rookie year,
m who do we hear? Like? Was uh, we still
had Girardi. I thought we cut Yard but that see,
that was the same thing with Girardi, you know, is
like we get there and then we just crumble in

(22:50):
the postseason, and we need to have somebody who gets
these guys up, makes some tough decisions, like I know
Michael stan doesn't want to, you know, come out of
the game, but you know what, I'm gonna pint on
you in the sixth you know, we're gonna try to
earn a run. Yeah, you know, Jazz, Jazz, you cannot
make You got to put your body in front of

(23:12):
that ball. You cannot with the ball and not knock
it down and have it go in the outfield. Yeah,
that saves a run, you know what I'm saying. And
then that's instead of going up, you know, down three
to one, we're you know, only two to one. You know,
when we can manufacture a run, we still have home
field a bandaged sure, you know, if we tie, we

(23:32):
like that changes the mentality of the relievers. That changes
the mentality of the hitters. Your momentum is going better,
and I don't want to hear crap about momentum. Momentum
all right, momentum got killed so many times and that
was one of the worst called games by an ump
this whole series.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
See that's where you mentioned I would love to see
my god like I am too much. I'm really looking
forward to seeing the challenge system implemented next year because how.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Many do you get right? Like do you just keep
on digging into the yump and be like get it right?

Speaker 2 (24:03):
I think we're going to see I think we're absolutely
going to see game outcomes change next year based on
the Challenge system. I think it's gonna have that much
of an impact. And that was I mean, there's there
were a lot of examples. I mean, obviously the Padres
one is the most egregious. I think, yeah where who knows,
oh yeah what.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
That series that was a walk that was thou where
like in Judges it just went it would have been
it was oh and two count, but it would have
been oh and three or three and oh, but then
it becomes two and one. So now he's swinging at
another one because he actually puts it. He's like, oh,
instead of just walking him, instead of getting him a

(24:42):
three to zero cookie, you know, I'm gonna like, I'm
just gonna I'm just gonna throw him a ball for him,
or we'll deal with the slumping Bellinger, you know what
I'm saying. So, Okay, I did. I guess I didn't
realize this timeline as much. Girardi won that World Series
in his second year, yeah, and then stayed for another
six eight years after that, so he got a full

(25:05):
nine years as manager and one in year two and
then stayed on. Now boone was because Torri had all
that success, and then we lost the I forget what
happened in four, you know, like that's just I think
I got, you know, amnesia, and then five we couldn't

(25:26):
do it. Then we get all the big players he
see to share, and then who was the third one
that we got? Oh man, in that trade, we got
big three. It would help me out chatroom.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
The only one I can think of is the Japanese
slugger that was addicted to porn that y'all had during
that Yeah, did you ever hear that story?

Speaker 1 (25:49):
He had?

Speaker 2 (25:50):
So he had like the tracks like nine hundred could
vhs tapes of porn that he was. I'm not I'm
telling you that he was my He was the one
Yankee I would root for based on that alone.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
Okay, I guess my childhood you know what it was?
It was another, It was another. It was a Japanese
picture that we got. I forget uh, it was he
threw he threw a nasty It was like, man, look up,
look up Japanese picture in two thousand and oh dude.

(26:27):
So we got Tanaka, we got c C and we
got to share it, you know, in one year. And
that was like the legacy of the Fat Toad. Yeah.
So that was like Tori's we gave you the pieces,
go win it. If you don't win it. Steinberner was
still alive, Big big Stein not how Oh the kids
don't care half as much as Big Style big Stein

(26:50):
was down there. He would have been no, would have
been gone a.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
Thousand and Girardi would have been gone. Like because this
is where my childhood memory fails me. Torri was only
their eleven seasons ninety six to seven, so Girardi was
there almost as long as Tory was. But I remember
Torri Tori. I'm now I'm calling him Pablo Torri. I
remember Joe Tory being more like twice as long there,

(27:15):
twice as long as Girardi or now Boon.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Because Joe Tory took over the dynasty right from what's
his name, Buck Buck, who went on to be Rangers manager.
So like just all like, yeah, you get a dynasty,
you get a couple of years from old big big Stein.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
I think it's probably I think I'm with you, I mean,
as a unbiased towards the Yankees.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
Who we're going to get. I don't know, I think
we need to get someone young, and I don't think
we need to hire Bruce Bochi's available.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
Would you be okay with that? That that actually wouldn't
be a bad I don't like it, you know, I
was like, I don't hate it.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
You're only needing for two seasons to try to get
that twenty eighth World Series ring, So two three years
with this current group with Judge and his prime like that,
it's sad with grisham Our center fielder because he was
literally playing for a contract. Duh or wo should have
been closer Devin Williams. The style the style bender was

(28:14):
playing for a contract. They're not coming back unless you know,
Devin Williams comes back on like a much less because
he was getting paid almost twenty plus million, you know
a year. Grisham just not showing up. We're not gonna
give him all that money. We're gonna go find another
outfielder like we got Belly actually showed up. He gets
a pass first year. You know, this was Grisham's breakout year.

(28:38):
He's gonna get paid somewhere else, but we're not gonna
give that money because we're about that postseason. You know,
Stan's coming towards the end of this contract. He's just
gonna be our permanent dh. Ben Rice is gonna be
our permanent first baseman. We might try to find a catcher,
but I mean, that's really gonna be your ninth hole.
I need to brush up on my I haven't started

(28:59):
looking at free agency yet to see who's going to
be what names will be out there, because it off
the top of my.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
Head faras not just third base, big big Guante. There's
not like a Sodo or Tatist junior.

Speaker 1 (29:14):
As far as says, on his end of his contract,
he was like up there in the top five home runs.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
Yeah, but the way he's playing in Seattle, I would
assume Seattle probably throws the bank at him.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
Who's got the bigger war chas? Sure?

Speaker 2 (29:26):
Absolutely, And uh, you know Seattle has kind of shown that.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
They Looke Weaver was on a contract where he guy
is definitely out of there because he just he was
so good last year on the run, like we could
like he became our pseudo closer, if not the closer
towards the end of the year.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
Oh, could I interest you in Kyle Tucker? I forgot
he's a free agent Tucker with the Cubs.

Speaker 1 (29:50):
Even though he's a good old boy. I don't think
he really fits into that would be that would be
fun interesting. I like it. I like it, Yeah, Tucker.
I know, I know Asker is going to try to
get Tucker back.

Speaker 2 (30:03):
You know, I just can't imagine they belly up to
the table and pay him the kind of money he's
going to be asking after they traded him, because they
decided they weren't going to give him the kind of
money he was asking for.

Speaker 1 (30:17):
They traded him and didn't make the playoffs. So it's
kind of like, hey, who won that hand?

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Oh no, no questions. I mean the same. You could
say the same with Bregman and making you know, Boston
making the playoffs. Bregman another potential free agent as well. Yeah,
but yeah, I mean it's it's funny, it's yeah, it's
Tucker Bregman.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
As far as position players, uh, Schwarber, money Shorber, we're
going to talk about him here in his second man
s we can get him an amazing game two to
three year Like, how old is Swarber? Thirty six? Is
he that old? I know he's in his like mid thirties.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
Yeah, I think I was thinking closer to like thirty four. Uh,
only thirty two. It turns thirty three in March, so
would be thirty three starting there. Or you could steal
Pee Alonzo from the Mets. So there are some decent names.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Ben Rice is gonna be our first base.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
Yeah, it looks it looks like that is absolutely. You
mentioned Swarber. We'll move on for the through the rest
of the games here. Yeah, looks like officially, actually, it
looks like the Dodgers just one in the eleventh inning.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Oh wow, eliminate the Phillies two to one.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
I should still mention, did you see the Swarber absolute
tape measure shot last night? I was watching that of
watching that live, and I thought then when it happened.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
I was like, Oh, it's funny to me.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
I think I think it's Brian Anderson that's calling that series.
But he he specifically called it out where you know,
before the era of stat cast, everyone would have said
that's a five hundred foot home run because he crushed
that thing, and it was. It was still a massive shot,
but it was like four fifty one or something like that.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
That's what she said, just correct. Yeah, No, Shoreber helped
the Phillies avoid the sweep last night. But as I said,
just one final tonight, you want to hear a stack
cast hit me in the air of stack caast since
two thousand and eight? Oh is this about? I bet
I know what you're about to tell me. Aaron Judge
three run homer to tie it. It was no other

(32:20):
no other hitter has ever hit a home run that
was ninety nine point seven miles per hour and a
foot point one point two feet inside for a home
run in the regular season, postseason anytime. And Judge didn't
just hit a home run. He absolutely crushed it.

Speaker 2 (32:40):
The I thought you were going to tell me about
the Stanton the hit he had the other night. It
wasn't a home run, but it was like one hundred
and twenty one miles per hour.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Oh yeah, yeah, something. He just smoked it on a rope.
Man Stan like he Man, if we had Stan hot
like he was last year, we'd still be in it.
Oh sure. I mean, you wouldn't have thirty two runners
on base if he insane because he was up with
people on base yep, all the time. Because Judge batted

(33:11):
over five hundred for the postseason, which you know, give
it up to Judge. He finished over his postseason numbers
over five hundred. Oh yeah, it was too serious. Yeah,
because unless he leaked with that last strikeout, unless he
leaked a little bit, I was sure, Yeah he was.
He was at five hundred going up to one of

(33:33):
one of his bats. I remember them putting up there.
But god man, he was dead on actual five hundred. Yeah,
twenty six at bats hit five hundred, twelve twelve seventy
three ops like that insane mentioning the Phillies. Now they

(33:54):
are eliminated.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
Now we wait to see the outcome of this Cub's
Brewers game. Cubs trying to stave off elimination. They jumped
out to a three to nothing lead in the first
inning over the Brewers. Kind of a kind of an
interesting decision from the Brewers perspective. They threw their ace
out there tonight peralta, uh, to try to eliminate the

(34:16):
Cubs and and get this series over with. And I
think if they end up now losing this game with
their ace on the mound tonight, uh, they'll have to
travel back to Milwaukee without their their best ammunition on
the mound to try to win a decisive Game five.
I wouldn't want, wouldn't want to be in that position,
But I kind of understand if you're if you're the Brewers,

(34:39):
throw your best guy out there, try to end this series.

Speaker 1 (34:42):
To see you don't want the Dodgers and they're just
being all arrested because I know, like, when do you
see that? I guarantee you that was a game time call. Yeah.
If the Phillies won, they wouldn't have they wouldn't have
thrown them out there.

Speaker 2 (34:54):
It was well, they announced it kind of late this afternoon,
I think it was, or maybe it was earlier this morning,
but I think I fell asleep last night with that
they hadn't announced it yet, or if they had, I
had missed it. So I woke up to see him
as the probable starter and thought, oh, like they're going
for the juggular tonight, trying to get this over with.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
Uh. I think they saw too many people started like,
you know, well who got the Detroit.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
Uh, Scoob, Yes, they're saving him for Sunday or for
tomorrow night. I mean, uh, for Game five. Well, let's
jump into that too, because yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
That's gonna be Let's let's see if school he did
it under the first game, which is pressure. Yeah, but
that's not the fifth game, so he everyone's been talking about.
I mean, this has been the narrative with scooball in
this whole series. You know, schoo Ball is a Seattle
University kid, went to college in Seattle. Pitching now against

(35:52):
the Mariners in the playoffs. His two twenty one e
er this year.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
On the surface, obviously that's dominant, that's a amazing But
against the Mariners this year's e is like four five eight.
Oh wow, right, So the Mariners are the team that
have they jump on or they I'd have to look
at it more. It just feels like and I'd also
like to see what the splits were, how many games

(36:17):
that was in Seattle versus how many games in Detroit,
because it does feel like there's some potential for a
letdown as good as he is pitching that game five
in front of the first post Seattle crowd, a crowd
where you know you went to college in the city,
You've got the whole.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
Some reason it's louder in Seattle than anywhere else. Well,
what's the conspiracy there? I don't know. I had to
hear about that crap for the Seahawks so much. Man,
oh yeah, the Seahawks look at the level and I'm like, shut, I.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
Will say so the Seahawks fandom traditionally has legitimately been loud,
even the sound the soccer team because but the baseball
team hasn't been.

Speaker 1 (37:03):
I don't remember it being like this since the Kingdome.
I want I want to see like where they are
a position to the ocean, to where it's like the
noise is reflecting off the water, so they're not far.
It's not ocean architect The architecture just made to where
like it bounces off perfectly.

Speaker 2 (37:20):
It's not far from it if I remember correctly, because
we went I have a cousin that lives up there
in Seattle, and we took the train from SeaTac Airport
into Seattle and you go right past the you know,
football stadium, baseball stadium, right next to each other. Because
when you remember it being a little high inland.

Speaker 1 (37:39):
In my conspiracy brain, I'm just thinking about high tide.
The noise reflects off the waves comes back, so it
doubles up.

Speaker 2 (37:47):
I would love to check the science on this, but
I uh, I fear we're already behind the clock, so
uh I should mention. Also, getting stuck in traffic on
the way out here did allow me to listen to
my favorite broadcaster ever, Darryl Razor Ray called the first
period of Stars.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
Opening night to that Stars end up. Uh. They go
pegging up in Canada to to night taking on the Jets.
They were winning two to one. Yeah. The peg, that's
what they call it up there. It's the peg, or
you call it lose a peg. If you're oh, yeah,

(38:26):
they affectionately refer to that because we're talking about Winnipeg.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
I don't I guess I don't understand, and that right
there is the value of keeping the FCC rules in
place because it makes you get created.

Speaker 1 (38:44):
I didn't the out rule. You were learning. We're still learning.
We're still learning now what the in and out rule is.
That's where we lose it.

Speaker 2 (38:54):
Uh No, the Jets another team that is obviously Stars
beat them in the second round last year, but another
one of these Western Conference teams that are in that
top five odds. I was looking at it early. I
think the Jets are actually closer to like seventh or
eighth right now, Stars are. This always makes me uncomfortable

(39:15):
when a team I root for is kind of that
trendy the top team. Yeah, not dark course, because they
are I think right now at MGM they have the
fifth best odds to win, So they're.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
Not they're not number one. They're not number one, but
they're also not.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
Believe it is well, I was just look it up
right now because I was looking at up. Of course, Yeah,
I think it's either I think it's either Carolina or Florida,
one of the and then Vegas is up there because
Vegas added Mitch Marner from the from Toronto from the
Maple Leafs. Yeah, Carolina's Carolina Edmondton. Oh no, Florida's back

(39:54):
with Dallas. Florida tied with Dallas, Carolina, Edmonton, Tampa Bay
uh and then uh everyone, all four of these teams
are all together, Colorado, Vegas, Florida, and Dallas.

Speaker 1 (40:06):
So so the team that wanted, the Florida Panthers are
not even in the top five.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
Well, it's one of they they were back to back,
so I think you take in the odds of them
being a three peat.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
Oh wait, hold up, that's trademarked.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
Yeah fair Yeah, careful, that's worse than breaking That's worse
than breaking FCC rules.

Speaker 1 (40:29):
Uh so yeah, I as we're distracted by Thursday night football,
also a little distracted by hockey as well.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Uh, let's jump into some X files LG, because we
did on Tuesday night show. I had some leftover video
and then found a couple other that had that had
been sitting. I'm so glad I got to.

Speaker 1 (40:53):
Tell you that. I'm so glad you did look up
the deep dive there because it's well where they don't
he's going he had very specific interest. I'll leave it.
I'll leave it. Look it up now, I'm gonna have
to look it up. We'll do a second We'll do
a secondment next week. I promise. Do I get to guess.
Let's see if I can guess. I see that might

(41:14):
be we might again be on the bad side of
FCC if we allow that. I know what that genre is.
I'm like, oh, it's a genre big in Japan, real
big in Japan, big in the Middle East. Yes, did
you see the video.

Speaker 2 (41:29):
It's from last Sunday night, the from the Bills game
when they got beat by the Pats. The fan that
caught Josh Allen's pass. All right, so, LG you have
this one, we'll start with it. He d I'll let you.
I'll let you play it out and let Tarico have
the floor here.

Speaker 4 (41:50):
Presume he runs yeah, gone, he's zero fifteen.

Speaker 5 (42:06):
He might get a beer. Well, where are you going, man?
That's your moment. Llano World forty led by Allen. He's
gonna take it the distance. Maybe it wasn't his seat.
Maybe he's one to be on TV.

Speaker 1 (42:18):
He's gone at the So.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
The guy the pound in front of him there was
wearing a Josh Allen Jersey. I know that could be
confusing if you're not watching, just listening.

Speaker 1 (42:27):
So fans sitting on the front they had they had
a plan than they had, like if we get the ball,
we're gone.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
And I would assume, like most NFL stadiums, there's no
re entry. And that was in like I want to
say that was in the first half still or maybe
the early part of the third quarter.

Speaker 1 (42:45):
I would have found like a nice little crevisto, a
hole or somewhere to hide it. Just hide it and
then just be like, what are you talking about? Or
maybe cut a deal with one of the concessionaires to
keep it there, slide them a twenty. See now you're
thinking out the Bible.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
So you got to do something because I wouldn't as
much as I would have wanted to keep the ball.

Speaker 1 (43:05):
It's Sunday night football.

Speaker 2 (43:07):
You're not leaving in the first half of the game
just because you call it.

Speaker 1 (43:10):
They lost that game.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
Yeah, that also, I would say that also adds a
bit of a salt in the wound.

Speaker 1 (43:16):
I didn't realize I was reading he's a guy that
would take a ball from a kid. Sure, I was reading.

Speaker 2 (43:26):
Phillies Well, she's she's.

Speaker 1 (43:30):
Crying the night with her phillies eliminated.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
I was reading it kind of depends on what stadium,
maybe where they they asked for the ball back versus
they make you give it back.

Speaker 1 (43:43):
I thought it's because each team had a certain amount
of balls and it has to be checked by the
officials right call back.

Speaker 2 (43:53):
But I think some stadiums are a little more lax,
Like I think Lambeau is traditionally one where they are
like no, no, no, you you got a football.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
At Lambeau, keep the keep the memory.

Speaker 2 (44:04):
But like so Fire or some of the newer stadiums,
it's not we that's our property and we will take
it back with force if we have to.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
I wonder if it was like when Cam Newton gave
his ball, like the ball whenever he rushed the touchdown
away every time. I wanted to see if that was
started because so he gave it to someone and they
asked for it back, and he's like, you know what,
f you Carolina, Like I'm giving a ball every so
I part of one of the stories I read specifically
mentioned that and that led him doing that led the

(44:34):
NFL to make an exception because you know, like when
you see a guy fire the ball into the crowd
after he fine, that's they get fined. And Cam was
getting fined in the same way a guy would for
firing into the crowd. And so they made an exception
for Cam, and they specifically made an exception for if

(44:55):
a player directly gives a ball to a fan, you don't,
they can't, they won't take it back. But they were
doing that up until you. So if you hand the
ball to the richie's in the front right, no fine,
but you let some of the real fans get a
taste of that, you know, memorabilia. I mean, we can't

(45:15):
have these classes bixes. Yeah, of course not. It.

Speaker 2 (45:18):
Also, I think the NFL much preferred when Cam was
handing it to like a make a wish kid or
something in the front row, you know, or at least
a kid at minimal.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
Would have taken it away like that guy. That guy
is a true Buffalo, a true citizen. Yah.

Speaker 2 (45:38):
But Tariko is still still very uncool, trying to do
his best Kevin Harlan impersonation this one. I mentioned the
uh big poppy audio I had for you. I didn't pull.
I wouldn't do that to you. But I I gotta.
I got a bit of a kick out of this, because.

Speaker 1 (45:57):
That ain't no Big pop. When you hear.

Speaker 2 (46:01):
You know, when you hear announcers that English is their
first language, try to say Cam ship Shitler's.

Speaker 1 (46:09):
Sl slitler, schlittler like slits the beer then slits Hitler slits.
So it's funny you use that as your reference point,
because that's exactly what Big Poppy uses a parent everything
one of pronounce his last name. You could first Slitler,
Well he's the master schlittler slitler. You know, now your

(46:33):
turn at least I know now it's.

Speaker 4 (46:42):
You.

Speaker 1 (46:44):
Just I don't want to get in. Drunk Poppy is
drunk Poppy is like I just I just call him Cam.
I don't want to get I'm embracing, uh, I'm embracing
Big Poppies role there. It's hard for me not to
say the not not the you know, evil sure German

(47:04):
and sure it's more the feces that that works. That works,
that works. I see. I like the creativity. See you're
already getting more creative with the with the FCC barriers
we have. Yeah, those my guys are out the past.
The past is what makes me break rules fair? That's fair,

(47:25):
as we discovered last Thursday. The yeah, the h.

Speaker 2 (47:32):
It's weird for me to admit because I hate hate
a Rod for the way he did the Rangers, and
obviously he's a Rod.

Speaker 1 (47:40):
You know. Poppy's fine, but I was never Boston fan.
You know.

Speaker 2 (47:45):
Jeter, of course, captain of the Evil Empire Yankees that
every man ruined my childhood multiple times. Uh, it's and
then Kevin Brohard is an absolute empty suit. But something
like that desk team it's great.

Speaker 1 (48:02):
Poppy pretty good, and Jeter is bro hard. It's funny
that they're on their end of the table together. Yeah,
because Poppy and ge are just having fun. A Rod
and bro Hard are about to do a crypto podcast together,
and then Poppy and Jeter just want to talk ball,
crack up and make each other like the Creating Creatures

(48:22):
and the Giants right now exactly. Gottaboo and Dart, Yeah,
I I've.

Speaker 2 (48:27):
Come to enjoy the four of them, the four of
their work together over these it's.

Speaker 1 (48:34):
And I didn't want to light Dart that much. You know,
even though he is starting on my fantasy team, he's
doing you know, he did you talking about football. Now,
I'm trying to praise Derek get I'm trying to tell
you I am so happy every day, I'm happy he's
actually he's coming home with me. Now, y'all are going
to miss the Yankee minute. No, I guarantee you they won't.

(48:57):
You're gonna miss it. I gute put eight minutes on
the clock. We've already done eight. We've done the final
Yankee half hour.

Speaker 2 (49:07):
Uh No, I've It's surprising to me how much I
enjoy hearing Jeter do media like that because I think
him loosening up a little bit and showing more of
that side next to Poppy, it just makes him so
much more likable.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
Did you watch the Jeter documentary? Yeah? It was good. Yeah,
the man dude, but he would he never let anybody
into that for twenty years because he knew what New
York was. Sure. He was like, He's like, you know,
I almost went to that did he party? Instead? He
scared the crap out of him.

Speaker 2 (49:42):
He called the party to his house and then he
gave him gift baskets on the way out.

Speaker 1 (49:46):
You need any cab fair Those are private parties. Yeah, look,
I would I would still like I still like, I
would like to have a basket. I would I I
have to. I love when they asked him about it,
He's like, are you serious you think I really did that?
And I'm like, yes, yes, yes, we do. Yeah. Of

(50:10):
course he's given the Shane smile, the Shane Gillison, I
didn't do that. And then lastly, with.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
It being Stars Opening night and with us uh disseminating
audio and video right now from San Antonio, this got
sent to me and it's not the best audio, but
it's the absurdity of asking NHL players this specific question.
So the Stars are rolling out all of their you know,

(50:40):
new media or like, you know, they've got some new guys,
they're trying to get some new sticks, some new you know,
like a social media content stuff like that, and for whatever,
for whatever reason, they decided it was good content to
ask the members of the team this specific question.

Speaker 1 (51:02):
As an NHL player, how often in a given day
do you remember the Alamo Jamie Ben just blank.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
Sagan every single day, and then that every single single Fox.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
The movie theater. You know what, No, he's a finish
that is that's that's good LG. That's Essa Lindel, Like
whoever whatever San Antonio Metro Sex.

Speaker 2 (51:37):
Well, it's this is a Stars market. This is absolutely
part of their regional reach. There's a there's a bunch
of Stars fans in the city.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
That Metro Sex stay away from San Antonio.

Speaker 2 (51:48):
Except for the Cowboys. Except I mean again, we do
this all the time. You're either a Ranger fan or
an Astro fan. So you're either declaring allegiance to DFD.
You are Houston, You're a Star, the only team in Texas.
You're either a Cowboy fan or a Texan fan.

Speaker 1 (52:08):
Unfortunately, but the Big D's turned into Little D's. It's
it's it's interesting except for the Stars. It's yeah, the
Stars actually are still the only one that actually excited
to see your your boy who you picked up and
absolutely did a stellar job in the playoffs. Oh Ranton
Miko the Moose. The Moose, so first period to see

(52:31):
how he's done. A full year with the Stars, he
got the full off season with the team.

Speaker 2 (52:35):
He's officially a full member of the Finnish Mafia.

Speaker 1 (52:38):
Now he's got had a whole training camp with him.

Speaker 2 (52:41):
Well, a first period tonight, Can I interest you in
a goal and an assist?

Speaker 1 (52:47):
He was involved in he's a stud.

Speaker 2 (52:50):
If you look at some of the UH contract extensions
that have been signed, because they all get done usually
like this. Last week before the season started, the Colorado
Avalanche traded Ranton in because they didn't want to give
him the number he wanted. He gets traded to Carolina,
tells Carolina, guys, I'm not resigning, Like, if you can,

(53:13):
you should trade me again and try to get something
for me, because you're gonna lose me for nothing. So
that's how the Stars end up getting him from Carolina.
So Colorado tries to trade him to the Eastern Conference
keep him away from any of their Western Conference rivals.
Gets traded back into conference, and then salt in the
wound signs a deal for takes a discount to sign

(53:36):
in Dallas that he wasn't willing to take in Colorado.
And now, after that happened last year, flash forward to
earlier this week. Colorado ends up signing a guy, good player,
but nowhere near as good as Ranton in to the
number that Rantonen wanted. Right, So they end up keeping

(53:57):
their like second choice winger for the same that they
could have kept just kept ranting In for last year.

Speaker 1 (54:05):
Really really bad business. Hopefully, hopefully it comes back to
haunt Colorado. Dark just threw a bulls eye right across
the first down. He just torpedoed his head right forward.
Well that's a good that's a good lead in.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
Let's get into some football talk before we get too
much further behind it.

Speaker 1 (54:21):
We're sitting here as he throws just like a dark
Oh okay, wait a second. That's illegal. That is illegal.

Speaker 2 (54:27):
That's you can't we can't lead with you. You can't
use your helmet as a web. I'm really shocked they
didn't call that one. I'm also really shock.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
I was shocked the defensive man was shot. I'm also
really shocked. The Giants are winning this game twenty to
seventeen halfway through the third quarter.

Speaker 2 (54:45):
Again, we've shot. So I'll tell you, I'll tell you
why they're in medlife.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
They are. But the Eagles coming off a loss. Figured
the Eagles would be a little motivated to put that
first loss of the season behind them. Until they do it,
I don't I'm not gonna buy it. And also, the
line on this game was, do you want to guess
six and a half Eagles seven and a half a

(55:12):
full touchdown with the hook any if I see seven
and a half seven and a half are over, I'm betting.
I'm betting for the other team, especially in a division
matchup and on prime time old crea team, creepy Scataboo
Scataboo might actually have something. Well.

Speaker 2 (55:25):
Before we get into the full week UH schedule and
our picks, let's get into some cow notes first, because
speaking of being favorites on the road, the Cows are
three and a half point favorites in Carolina, and that
that make they were two and a half point favorites
last week against the winless Jets and now they're bigger

(55:47):
favorites against the two and three Carolina Panthers.

Speaker 1 (55:51):
That's uh, I'm thinking is going to have a great name.
That makes me well if I'm thinking Cowboys are still
statistically the number thirty two defense in the league. Cuba,
Cuba and Daddle. So Tuba is still Cuba is still questionable.
It doesn't It doesn't look like we're going to know

(56:12):
the story of this matchup is the injuries, because yeah,
Tuba is still questionable. Don't know. I haven't seen for
sure if there's a lean one way or another, whether
he's gonna play or not. But just last week when
he couldn't play, we saw Rico Dawdlell go for two
hundred and six yards. Yeah, two hundred and six of

(56:33):
his two hundred and eighty nine he has on the season.
And then after the game, fresh off the two hundred
yard performance, tells the Cowboys to buckle up. He's buckle
up for next week. So do I start? I start?
I hope Hubbard sits out, even though I don't like
Bruin against my OSU brother.

Speaker 2 (56:54):
Now you're gonna have some time to decide though, because
it's you know, noon kickoff Sunday. I mentioned the injuries.
The Cowboys had eighteen players on the injury report yesterday
for Wednesday practice.

Speaker 1 (57:08):
The Niners disease. The good news today it was only
seventeen CD.

Speaker 2 (57:15):
Now CD's not going to be back. CD won't be back.
Turpin won't be back. Tyler Booker is not going to
be back.

Speaker 1 (57:22):
The they did they mark him out already.

Speaker 2 (57:25):
I don't think I if he's not officially marked out,
I think you can pretty much he's not going through
uh not even limited practice.

Speaker 1 (57:36):
He's still doing drills on the side. Captain Cream, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (57:40):
The uh one again kind of a I don't know
if it's actually a good thing or not. Tyler Guiden
was back in practice from his concussion protocol. But I
mentioned Nate Thomas, who gave the.

Speaker 1 (57:57):
Triple uh.

Speaker 2 (58:00):
Yeah, the triple pump and got the penalty. He played
great in New York last week, and that's who he
was replacing in Guiden. So I mean just looking at
in terms of, you know, some of the random names
that popped up on the list this week. Dante Fowler
was fine until today. Apparently he's battling some kind of illness,
so not an injury, but at least didn't practice today.

(58:24):
Joe Milton the same way. I think he had a
personal situation but fine, right back, Yeah, Fowler edge edge
Rusher Sanborn who was injured last week, non participant in practice.
And then Miles Sanders, who was a limited participant yesterday
didn't practice today, which of course is how we got

(58:46):
to see Jaden Blues NFL debut last week, which was
I kind of missed Miles Sanders. Yeah, with the at
least Sanders has shown he can be somewhat of a weapon.
But the you look at this list and it's, you know,
eight guys are DNP and ten guys are limited, so
it's it's gonna be a mash unit.

Speaker 1 (59:07):
And you're in Carolina, right, And I wonder if that
line's gonna move, man, so soon as all these questionables
become out.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
So it opened at three and a half, and it
hasn't moved.

Speaker 1 (59:19):
It hasn't moved yet. It hasn't moved that much of
Dak Prescott. Well again, I mean dad, So he got passed.
He's now number two in EPA rating this year. Donald passing.
Oh but still don't trust those ratings.

Speaker 2 (59:36):
It's still well, I mean again, Donald's been awesome. Like,
I don't know what's the through.

Speaker 1 (59:41):
For three to fifty two record against the top tier
defense football is more than overall record, Like it's not
I think that's how you win the game. That's how
you win the games.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
But that Brad if by that case, Brad Johnson was
a better quarterback than Dan Marino, Like that's not true,
that doesn't make any sense.

Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
It's like it's more than just you asked Dan if
he would trade up some of those stats for a ring.

Speaker 2 (01:00:04):
He would, but he also would say I'm ten times
the quarterback, twenty times the quarterback Brad Johnson was uh
you mentioned Dak though with a win, Dak would officially
pass his.

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
Uh, his mirror image Tony Romo.

Speaker 2 (01:00:18):
That would put him at seventy nine career wins because
right now, same amount of games started and they have
the same amount of wins, like they are.

Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
Damn it. You look at even like it's so crazy.
It's comically ironic. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
It's funny because it's reminded me thinking more about the
Romo years. Like back then, Jerry would literally flat out say, like,
we don't have to invest in offensive line because we
got Tony Romo, Like we you know, we like what
exactly exactly, So yeah we are again Cowboys are still
number one offense and dead last DP.

Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
We don't need to take we don't need to invest
in a running back because we got Dak exactly exactly
and Iron Daldell will put him at running back.

Speaker 2 (01:01:04):
They let Daldell go for basically the same amount of
money as Javonte Williams, and now Williams is leading the
NFL or second third.

Speaker 1 (01:01:12):
Now, I mean I think he's still yeah his comeback.
You mentioned what is up with like Denver's culture because
they're running backs. JK. Dobbins is doing better than R. J. Harvey. Yeah,
And but R J. Harvey was highly touted as you know,
the speed rush early second round pick. Yeah, speed rusher,

(01:01:33):
I would catch the edge, had great hands. He has
been the passing down quarterback I mean running back. Yeah,
but it's still I don't get it, man, Like, how
did Javonte Williams underperform and then go to Dallas and overperform.
I'll tell you two things.

Speaker 2 (01:01:52):
One and I think most importantly, it's Javonte Williams just
having full two years removed from the absolutely shredded knee
and full injury recovery explosiveness this year versus last year
where he was only a year removed from the injury.
Quite a bit different on tape. But secondly, and maybe

(01:02:13):
just as important, we've been saying it the last couple
of weeks, give Clayton Adams his credit because the Cowboys
run game this year is so much more creative schematically
than it was under McCarthy. So I think there can
be a lot said. It's not like the offensive line
has gotten better personnel wise. They started four backups last
week and we're able. I mean again, it's against the Jets,

(01:02:37):
but that's still an NFL team. And I think Clayton Adams,
we'll see, we need a promotion, relegation. I think Clayton
Adams very seriously could be a one and done in Dallas.
He might be a head coach somewhere next year, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:02:54):
Or trying to if they continue these numbers and the
run game continues to be as good as it is. Yeah,
and they do have a tough schedule.

Speaker 2 (01:03:03):
Oh, like you said, they're gonna lose three of their
last four, So you gotta bank these now, Oh we can't.

Speaker 1 (01:03:08):
We can't bank the Eagles gonna beat them fair, I
mean we're starting to they could Could this be the
Super Bowl hangover that they had two years ago? Right?

Speaker 2 (01:03:18):
And also how we've talked about the Eagles have been
out gained every game and they were just finding ways
to win. Also, maybe that like it's early, there's still
a lot of game here, but maybe that Cowboys Giants
Cowboys win ends up meaning legitimately meaning something those last
few weeks of the season, as stupid and as crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:03:39):
As that is, should three hundred and zero in one
yeah remember that stat? Yeah? Oh yeah, speaking of stats
the Panthers five and eleven all time versus Dallas, but
two and oh in playoff matchups. I bring yeah, thousand,

(01:04:00):
Kerry Collins era and then into Jake DeLoone before then
and even.

Speaker 2 (01:04:07):
Awesome the rageing Cajun. I bring this analogy to you
because I was thinking about it earlier. It feels like,
you know, obviously still very very early in Bryce Young's career,
but when Herbert came out and came onto the scene
in the league, immediately was anointed in ways that Trevor

(01:04:31):
Lawrence wasn't like we saw results, we saw translation of
skill to the pro game from college.

Speaker 1 (01:04:38):
It feels got that huge contract for underperforming.

Speaker 2 (01:04:42):
Right because at the end of the day, they didn't
really have a whole lot of other options and didn't want.

Speaker 1 (01:04:48):
To restart, right.

Speaker 2 (01:04:50):
I ask, is Bryce Young in a similar position now
then that Trevor Lawrence was in after two years year
and a half, because it kind of feels like the
situation's not good. Dave Canalis, the head coach is a
lame duck walking?

Speaker 1 (01:05:07):
Uh? Is it just Bryce Young?

Speaker 2 (01:05:10):
With the next group that comes in as the coaching
staff is where we're gonna see some growth, like we
did with Trevor Lawrence, with now Liam Cohen and actually
seeing the Jags as three years later, they they've been
able to add pieces, they've been able to compliment Trevor,
they've been able to actually build a functioning organization. Because

(01:05:33):
right now the Panthers, I mean, since Bryce got there.

Speaker 1 (01:05:36):
They've Bryce just kills me because he's so small. That's
obviously the only person to do that at a level,
like Drew Brees, give me another one. Russell Wilson that small.

Speaker 2 (01:05:48):
Yeah, and even Russ is bigger than than that. I mean, yeah,
you're talking Kyler and I look at those results, right
It's just.

Speaker 1 (01:05:55):
Like it's a he's got to eve. But I mean
we saw he can do it in Alabama in the SEC,
you know, but he was Alabama with all the talent.
But McMillan is coming out, they're starting to establish the
run game. They do have a semi good defense, you know,

(01:06:15):
And we're just in the era where we gotta throw
these first round top ten rookie quarterbacks out there the
first year and perform, you know, yeah, because we need
we need to get a winning team on your rookie
year contract. And it's almost un it's unfeasible. It's like

(01:06:38):
unreasonable because they need to sit for a little while.
They need to, like they're not used to sixteen games,
they're not used to the press. Especially, they're not used
to actually having money, you know, Like now that's a no, no,
no issue. But how many starts did Bruce Young even
have at Bama? I mean it was one full year?

(01:07:02):
That was it? Right? Yeah, that was That's what I'm
trying to remember. Bama uses cycle. They their backups were
ready to play the next year and win, and after
they won, they went on you know, Okay, so it
was it was actually it was basically a year and
a half. A year and a half, Yeah, year and
a half worth of starts? Was it Jalen Hurs who

(01:07:23):
got it? Not Jalen Hurst? No, it was uh, it
was the placeholder before him? Uh, the white boy.

Speaker 2 (01:07:31):
Yeah, I can't remember, is uh not mccaren. It was
after that too, but yeah it was he. I mean
he obviously had all of the recruiting rankings behind him,
but then didn't play a whole lot his freshman year
and then sophomore and junior ends up predominant starter. So

(01:07:54):
I think that's I we talked about it a little
bit before the Bill Parcells rule when it comes to
college quarterbacks, like, if you haven't started three seasons worth
of games, you're you're not a finished product.

Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
You're nowhere close to being a finished product.

Speaker 2 (01:08:13):
And that that, I think is what you're seeing a
lot of these guys struggle with right now.

Speaker 1 (01:08:21):
Where Oh, it was your boy, Mac, it was Mac
Jones Jones. I knew it wasn't mccaren, but I had
to look it up.

Speaker 2 (01:08:27):
And I think that's where Bryce Young is at because statistically,
like right now is just he's just hitting his three
year mark as a starting quarterback between Bama and Carolina.
So still so much I think, obviously, so much promise untapped.
But the question is is it a is it a

(01:08:49):
bad organization that's gonna waste that or is it just
a wasted Is it gonna end up being just a
wasted pick because of the player.

Speaker 1 (01:08:57):
They could be? I mean, who's a team who's an
organization that never wins? Cleveland that's a bad organization, Dallas Cleveland,
the Jets, bad organization, Washington Jaguars. They're actually trying to
do it, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (01:09:15):
Even the Jags have been to a couple of AFC
Championship games in my lifetime.

Speaker 1 (01:09:20):
But the Carolina has been to a Super Bowl. Yeah,
so that was what jake. Carolina has had a better
twenty year run than the Cowboys, and it's not even close.
I think I think Carolina. I think Carolina is invested.
They just saw the the depletion of Cam Newton, you know,
and they just were like, this guy's getting too old,

(01:09:42):
he's getting more inaccurate. We're still giving him weapons. They
moved early to DJ Moore, you know who's still out there.
He can still ball. He's balling out there with you know,
Caleb Williams now So he just you know, I think
I think they invent I was like, I feel Carolina

(01:10:02):
is not the Browns, not the Jets. They're just they
were just in a in a division that was dominated
by Breeze, then dominated by Brady. Yeah, you mentioned though,
you mentioned the Browns. Fun stat for you here, the
Browns are technically talking about how long the Panthers stick

(01:10:24):
with Bryce Young. Obviously, remember Browns moved on from Baker
way too early. As we see now, the Browns technically
this season are paying eight quarterbacks you want to hear
the full list. Deshaun Watson Are you trying to guess?
Try to guess if you want to Deshaun Watson thirty

(01:10:45):
six million to DeShawn the Deshaun Watson Joe Flacco a
million to Flacco. They're still paying Baker. Nope, Baker's officially
off the books, off the books, show Door Sanders, Dylan Gabriel.

Speaker 2 (01:11:00):
Yeah, Chador a million, Dylan Gabriel one point one.

Speaker 1 (01:11:04):
Verse four, and there's four more.

Speaker 2 (01:11:07):
Four more four and only one of them is technically
with the organization still.

Speaker 1 (01:11:16):
Oh man, I don't think you might.

Speaker 2 (01:11:18):
Okay, So Deshaun's their number one highest paid quarterback. Guarante
Jamis is number two. They're paying Jamis two point two
million this year. Dylan Gabriel third, Flaco, fourth or fifth,
sixth is Bailey ZAPPI paying him three hundred and fifteen thousand.

(01:11:39):
He's on the practice squad. And then they're still.

Speaker 1 (01:11:41):
Paying technically the number two quarterback.

Speaker 2 (01:11:43):
Might be uh uh, still paying dtr Dorian Thompson Robinson
one hundred and seventy one thousand this year, and they're
the eighth one Kenny Pickett.

Speaker 1 (01:11:55):
They're paying Kenny Pickett a cool eight grand is he
still on?

Speaker 2 (01:12:00):
They cut him and they cut now he was they
had traded for him from Pittsburgh and then or from
someone Uh, and then they cut him picket because it's
dead money.

Speaker 1 (01:12:12):
It's money they they in the trade. They're like, we'll
take over right and cutting contract.

Speaker 2 (01:12:18):
If you cut him, you're still paying that money because
it's dead against your cap at that point. So yeah,
the the Browns are a fun one for many reasons.
But when I saw that, I thought, I bet we
can use that tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:12:29):
He just gotta be like, why doesn't the Browns have
a character like Jaraff? You know, this seems like it's
like ran like they kind of do. He just doesn't
get as much national and publicity because it's Cleveland. But
it's Jimmy Haslm. It's the guy that owns all the
big trucker travel gas stations. Really, do you remember who?

Speaker 2 (01:12:52):
When he Uh talked about his decision to draft Johnny
football Manziel, it was because he said he was at
one of his gas stations the morning of the draft
and a homeless man was asking for money. He gave
him some money, and then he asked the homeless man
who he thought the brown should draft, and he said,
you gotta take Johnny Football. It's obvious, there's a no brainer.

(01:13:14):
That's so they kind of do have their own Jerry.

Speaker 1 (01:13:17):
While they're holding back Jay from the draft room so
he can which Johnny Manziel is on Special Forces World's
Toughest Reality Show. He might do okay with that because
I mean he is not no. Oh no, I was
hoping that. I was hoping the Kerrville country boy would

(01:13:37):
come out and we might. Actually he's like, he's like,
he's like, I've been through a hundred practices and I
know what it's like to work hard, but this is
the hardest I've ever working And it's like running up
a hill with some some bags that are heavy. Oh yeah,
it's like that it's been a while since you don't
have the cocaine, which is to help you out this time.
That's a hell of a different kind of performance and

(01:14:00):
dancing drugs that's a stimulant.

Speaker 2 (01:14:02):
Well, it's time. Let's get some picks on the board.
I mentioned we missed them on Tuesday. Kind of looks
like dart Yeah, because us warming up, I mentioned we
didn't update our picks on Tuesday. So the one game
we had different last week was the Monday night game.

(01:14:26):
It was Chiefs Jags, and you went with the Jags,
and I still rode with the Chiefs, so you won
that one.

Speaker 1 (01:14:33):
The rest of our picks were Cowboys Niners.

Speaker 2 (01:14:37):
We lost the Seahawks game and we lost the Chargers game,
so you won the week three to two. I still
lead the overall count seven to six, so one game up,
you're clawing back. I wasn't able to build any any
lead after you had that winless week.

Speaker 1 (01:14:57):
So we'll start as always with Dallas. Dallas MYUS three
and a half on the road in Carolina noon kickoff.
It's your team, you do the honors. I gotta roll
with them. I mean, I I think, if nothing else,
Dallas again gives up twenty seven, but they scored thirty
one and cover that three and a half point spread.

(01:15:20):
Give me, give me the Cows three and a half
minus three and a half. I don't give him four
and a half or five and a half.

Speaker 2 (01:15:30):
I'd see, I would actually like the three and a
half scares the hell out of me, yeah, because I mean,
we just saw Carolina play a three point game last week.
Although they were on the winning side of it, twenty
seven to twenty four over Miami.

Speaker 1 (01:15:43):
I want to go against you.

Speaker 2 (01:15:44):
Want to I can see it in your face. A
true cowboy hater would pick the.

Speaker 1 (01:15:50):
Panic cowboy hater. I love the Cowboys, I love sing
y'all fail every year, well then then, but you usually
do good until the end. I start betting on you.
That's fair. I'm rolling with Caroline. Whoa with Caroline. Final answer,
lock it in, Lock it in? Wow, Carolina, Okay, okay,

(01:16:12):
come on, Carolina. I love your barbecue sauce. Carolina barbecues trash.
Oh man. I don't know about their how they cook it,
but their sauce, that little little honey mustard sauce. I
like that. I will give you. It's like vinegary based. Yeah,
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (01:16:28):
I'm not against that the rest of the week. Obviously,
we're watching this game now, so we won't. We'll remove
it from the board of picks. But I think your
team is playing in the game of the week this week.

Speaker 1 (01:16:40):
Yeah, and I don't. It's kind of a bad week.
I think it's not having the seven o'clock spot, or
they actually have the met the three.

Speaker 2 (01:16:46):
Now you're believe it's the three o'clock. It's the Yeah,
it's it's the Romo Nance game. It's the CBS. Yeah,
I got to listen to that. Yeah, listen to him
and Nance have no chemistry and Romo dropping six seven
references like.

Speaker 1 (01:17:03):
Look at dark walking. Yeah, he's running out for one play.
One play. It looked like a little next singer because
it looked like his next Oh, I thought it was
lower body. That's that's better than Yeah, they're gonna do
concussion protocol with them. Oh yeah, he's heading to the
to the blue tint. All right, come back and give
me some fantasy points. You want to take a guest

(01:17:23):
on the line?

Speaker 2 (01:17:24):
Niners at Buccaneers three twenty five kickoff.

Speaker 1 (01:17:29):
Bucks one and a half.

Speaker 2 (01:17:31):
More respect for the Bucks than I would have said,
more like that, But I think it's the concern about
his party back. Is Mac Jones even able to go?
Who plays quarterback for the Niners? It's Tampa Bay minus
three and a half?

Speaker 1 (01:17:46):
Yeah, yeah, with our backs against the wall. Wall tell
me because I I help you this. Yeah. This was
one of the games in the beginning of the year
that I like would circle and be like, this is
going to be a hard game. You know, Mike Evans
is not in there. Godwin's questionable. Buka, there you go, hey, buddy,

(01:18:07):
put to shame. Yeah, I'm not selling no us A here,
never say never. Hey, brought to you by But god,
that passed from Russell Wilson just look ugly. They let
him throw a pass. Yeah, he's got to go out
one one, I know, but just hand it off, don't

(01:18:30):
because it was third and nine, Okay, fair, fair, He's like,
get darted at that tent man. It sure looks like
that's what he's Yeah, he's wow, he is yelling at it.
Oh are they saying he's concussed anyway? Back on who
starts for the Niners though, I mean, what's the update
on Mac? Party hasn't party party hasn't practiced yet? Right?

(01:18:54):
I don't think we rush him out there. Hernandez might
get a shot. Who's even left? If you is it
the old Nebraska quarterback? That y'all dude? If you think
I'm going against my Niners, you're wrong. Who's the quarterback?
If Mac? Do you think it is? I think it's Rodriguez.

(01:19:15):
I think it's neither of those was Hernandez? Oh? Look
at scattaboo going to check on them. Oh buddy, hey, buddy,
how you doing, buddy? It's Jeff Garcia. Jeff, I'm open, Jeff,
So remember the Yeah, well, who did you say? You
think it is Hernandez and I said Rodriguez. Uh, sir,

(01:19:37):
we would both be wrong. It is Adrian Martinez Martinez,
who is also the I I at least, and he's
not even he's Kansas State. Antonio's the Niners practice squad quarterback.

Speaker 2 (01:19:53):
Like I I know, I like to think of myself
as an encyclopedia sometimes, but I I don't have the pull.

Speaker 1 (01:20:00):
I'm Ryan McCaffrey to kittle skittles kittle, Yeah, more like
brittle kittle. Calm down, you make fun of Dak. I'm
giving him. Hey, I never jumped your ass for wishing
that Dak tore his a c M because life field.
What did you say beforehand? I said injury? You wished

(01:20:22):
injury on one of my I didn't know. That is
not what I said. I said, I said you have
the bossman or something I did not I said, I said,
very distinctly, I prefer my baseball players to not help
guys as they fall into the dugout was I didn't
wish an injury, I said, I especially when it's your heated,

(01:20:45):
longtime rival like the Red Sox. I said, I think
I think you.

Speaker 2 (01:20:51):
Should let the guy because that also means if he
drops it, it's not an out.

Speaker 1 (01:20:55):
I just like, I like, I'm I'm an old school
I'm an old drop this because I don't wish injury
on anybody. You absolutely wished injury on that. Luckily all
the cowboy.

Speaker 2 (01:21:09):
But there's no there's no nothing coming from my way.
Just pointing out. I mean, I'm an old school I'm wrong.
I'm wrong with my Niners. I might go up to, oh,
here on you because you're gonna go You're assuming I'm
taking Baker to cover only three and a.

Speaker 1 (01:21:24):
Half point and we're playing in LEVI. No, you're playing
in uh Raymond James playing in Tampa at three o'clock. Yep,
oh my god.

Speaker 2 (01:21:34):
I still want Niners, Niners plus the points. It's being
written down as soon as you lock it in.

Speaker 1 (01:21:45):
Give me the give me the upset, give me the Niners. Okay,
all right, nine. So they're just giving Baker the home field.

Speaker 2 (01:21:55):
Advantage, basically the three points. Yeah, basically, I mean, I'm
not gonna drag this out. I gotta go Bucks. I
can't if I can't tell you, uh that Purty or
mac Jones are gonna be fully healthy in this game.

Speaker 1 (01:22:12):
I kind of trust he's gonna roll out mac Jones
and just say he's just a hand off. He's like
that guy in that volleyball like skit where he just
constantly gets beating with the ball and they keep picking
them up.

Speaker 2 (01:22:27):
Oh, chat's telling me Ranson and just got another assist
for the Stars.

Speaker 1 (01:22:31):
Dude, he's gonna He's gonna be so great this year.

Speaker 2 (01:22:34):
The rest of the game's potential other games we might
want to pick. I told you it's a pretty down
week when it comes to premiere matchups, but a fun one.
And it's the Sunday Night game which makes it.

Speaker 1 (01:22:48):
I thought one of the Monday's had a good one.

Speaker 2 (01:22:50):
So we do have a doubleheader Monday, and I'll throw
those out there. But the Sunday Night one a little
bit of extra juice because it's Sunday Night football. Lions
at the reeling Chiefs four and one, Lions two and three,
Chiefs at home, and.

Speaker 1 (01:23:10):
This is I guess the line Lions plus minus two
and a half. Yeah, what are we missing? Why?

Speaker 2 (01:23:20):
Why do we both think that? Because the line opened
Chiefs minus one and a half and it has now
moved to Chiefs minus two and a half.

Speaker 1 (01:23:33):
But she Rice ain't coming off of the suspension early?
Are the Lions? Are we missing a major Lions injury? No,
Gibbs is healthy, Montgomery's hetomery, Sat Brown's healthy. Gov it's
still slanging it. Hutchinson's playing ice has this is his
last game of his suspension. What are we missing? I
got him ready to come off my benching. Fantasy Chiefs

(01:23:56):
lose last week to the Jags. I mean they got
a play an extra three players with the zebra shirts.

Speaker 2 (01:24:05):
I don't know what we're missing. I don't understand this
line whatsoever.

Speaker 1 (01:24:08):
And that's what concerns me is the officiating on primetime TV.
You can't have the Chiefs go down two and four.
See That's why I think we need to make sure
this is one of the ones we pick. I'll throw
some other ones out there to you. Oh no, that's
definitely We're okay. Well, then we'll texting you every That's
what I'm saying, Saul. That kills the momentum.

Speaker 2 (01:24:31):
The only other game that is even I even wrote
down as an argument for Game of the Week, and
it's a distant third. Three and two Seahawks, led by
Sam Darnold with the highest EPA of any quarterback in
the league this year, traveling to Jacksonville playing the four
and one Jaguars noon.

Speaker 1 (01:24:50):
Kickoff Jacksonville, Man, it's that Try to guess this spread.
Guess this line Jacksonville minus one and a half. You
got the one and a half, right, Seahawks, Yep they yep.
It opened at that and it stayed out. We got

(01:25:12):
worked last week? Who was it? It wasn't they didn't
get work. They lost my three. It was the Bucks.
That's the game. Oh yeah. But and Darnold goes for
three point fifty two or whatever it was they scored thirty.
It was in Seattle.

Speaker 2 (01:25:25):
Yeah, m Jacksonville maybe feeling themselves too much after the
Chiefs game.

Speaker 1 (01:25:32):
Maybe, Nah. I think they're just motivated, like they just
they just beat the Niners yep. And then they beat
the Chiefs yep. And now you've got and they beat
the chief and both of them were game Well, I
mean we beat our like we kind of They did
do a defense and Mac Jones through it all, throughout
a cookie. But yeah, they're feeling themselves. They're starting to

(01:25:56):
get Travis Hunter involved, etn. You know, the only thing
is the passing game, the defenses, but they gave up
so much to the Bucks. And Trevor Lawrence is playing
just as good as Baker in my opinion, not as statistically.

Speaker 2 (01:26:13):
He's winning, but I mean he's not doing nearly as
much impressive statistically as what Baker. Baker is the MVP
right now, I think he had. I think he is
the highest odds right now to win MVP.

Speaker 1 (01:26:28):
That's that's unfortunate.

Speaker 2 (01:26:30):
I think the only other quarterback or the only other
player you could argue besides Baker would Beef. I was
gonna say, Josh Allen just because the Bills are going
to have a good year.

Speaker 1 (01:26:43):
They're literally writing them like like they're trying to break them.

Speaker 2 (01:26:46):
So McCaffery has lower odds than Drake May right now.

Speaker 1 (01:26:50):
Because it's a quarterback. It's the quarterback war. But hmmm, yeah,
I like that one.

Speaker 2 (01:26:56):
And then you mentioned the Monday night games. Also, the
primetime games are just more fun because they're everybody's watching them.

Speaker 1 (01:27:04):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:27:04):
The first game Monday night, Bills at Falcons. Second game,
Bears at Commanders.

Speaker 1 (01:27:12):
I like the Bears at the Commanders. I don't mind that.

Speaker 2 (01:27:14):
Also, also picking within Cowboys division, picking a game involved
divisional opponent.

Speaker 1 (01:27:22):
That should be the fourth, right, Uh, now that would
be five.

Speaker 2 (01:27:27):
We could go Lions, Chiefs, Seahawks, Jags, and then Bears
Commanders because here we'll burn through like.

Speaker 1 (01:27:33):
The Bears, Commanders the Seahawks listen to how bad? I agree?

Speaker 2 (01:27:38):
But uh, that would be our five. Yeah, that we
could get all five of these. Listen to some of
these other matchups. How bad they are, as I say,
it's a bad week.

Speaker 1 (01:27:47):
Broncos at Jets, nothing there, Cardinals at Colts, not a
whole lot of juice, Chargers at Dolphins, Pats at Saints.
Browns with Joe Flacco making his debut after traveling on
a commercial flight yesterday to get to Cleveland's playing the

(01:28:08):
team that just trade him.

Speaker 2 (01:28:09):
Uh, well, they're playing the Steelers.

Speaker 1 (01:28:13):
I thought you. I thought you said the Brown's Steelers,
Brown Steelers. I thought it was Browns.

Speaker 2 (01:28:19):
So the funniest thing about this, the Browns last week
in London are starting what's his name, Dylan Gabriel and
now no bye week, traveling back from Europe going up
against Oh yeah, I'm saying Browns, not Bengals. Yeah, saying

(01:28:42):
Browns now though, coming back and they have to go
up against the Steelers after playing in London.

Speaker 1 (01:28:47):
Usually there's a bye for the europe teams.

Speaker 2 (01:28:51):
Crazy and then Rams at Ravens not really interesting. Also,
Cooper Rush might already be benched. I think they're going
with Huntley. Uh, Titans Raiders. Do you want to put
anything on Geno Smith and his nine interceptions? Bengals now
with Joe Flacco taking on the Packers kind of interesting?

Speaker 1 (01:29:12):
Just yeah, just because like I'm not going to bet
on that game.

Speaker 2 (01:29:15):
No, I mean, there's not a whole end then, and
then it's the rest of the ones that we've all. Yeah,
that's why I think there's not a there's no I
try to find games where we might be split is
what I'm.

Speaker 1 (01:29:25):
Looking at for.

Speaker 2 (01:29:27):
So all that being said, you want to lock them
in nine? We did Cowboys, we did Niners. Lions at
Chiefs Sunday night football. I mean Chiefs minus two and a.

Speaker 1 (01:29:41):
Half, fourteen against eleven. Still gotta go Lions, dude, and.

Speaker 2 (01:29:47):
You get the points and you get and a half.
Lock it in, Lock it in.

Speaker 1 (01:29:53):
Lions got plus two and a half. Yeah, it feels
crazy to think that the Chiefs are going to start
the year two and four. It seems like Vegas thinks
that this game is already in the bag because the
NFL is like our postal boy is reeling over here. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:30:16):
I again, I think the lines equally. Yeah, and I.

Speaker 1 (01:30:22):
And after the help they got last week, now that
they need to give them more help this week.

Speaker 2 (01:30:28):
If you're telling me, I get to pick Dan Campbell
plus some points, you're gonna pick that.

Speaker 1 (01:30:34):
I got to. I think I got against Andy Reid,
the play caller himself.

Speaker 2 (01:30:41):
It's been a while since Andy won the old punk
passing kick competition.

Speaker 1 (01:30:44):
I think. Man, he's coming fresh off of Super Bowl
the year before that and another super Bowl way before that.

Speaker 2 (01:30:52):
Yeah, but if Dan can just get one, then it's
going to open all the all right, you might be
talking to me, Okay, hold on, let me think about this,
because this is also.

Speaker 1 (01:31:00):
Anybody can scheme up a game to a neutralized Hutchinson
on offense and then dink and dunked their way to
control the clock. It's Andy Reid. What was the Chiefs
Jags final score. Oh, he had to run it in
to get it to get one point up. They won

(01:31:22):
by one, one by one, now one by three. They
won by three. Okay, okay, yeah, so they had to
get a field way, they had to get a field goal.
Oh yeah, yeah. I look. I think the I think
the obvious choice here is to take the Lions plus
the points against the Vegas is telling you.

Speaker 2 (01:31:41):
Vegas builds big buildings, very nice buildings, big fountains.

Speaker 1 (01:31:47):
I'm trying to get you to I know, I know, No,
I can't go against Dan.

Speaker 2 (01:31:52):
I gotta stick with Dan glen Rose's own Dan Campbell.
Give me Lions plus the points plus two and a
half elsewhere other two ones. Seahawks at Jags, Seahawks minus
one and a half. I feel like we're not gonna
split this one either. Actually we might, we might. I'll

(01:32:13):
you want to pick first, you want me to go?

Speaker 1 (01:32:14):
I think the run game has been like when the
Seahawks are winning in the beginning of the year, they
were having Charbonnet and Kenneth Walker the third running the ball,
and I saw some of that last week. I think
we see way more of that and they get some
points the Seahawks or Ano. They're laying one and a half. God,

(01:32:37):
I know if they gave me one and a half,
i'd pick the Seahawks. I think I would be inclined
to agree with you, But I'm laying control the clock.
Get at And it's not like you can say you
don't if you say, well, I don't trust the Jags
to not be high off there when last week. But

(01:32:59):
it's not like I trust the Seahawks for as far
as I can throw them right now, I don't even
I'm gonna go division. I'm Seahawks, going Seattle going Hawks. Yeah,
to cover that one and a half? Final answer, Yeah,
final answer. See they control the clock, they get it, Trevor,
they fluster them.

Speaker 2 (01:33:18):
Yeah see Hawks minus one and a half. Well that
opens it up for me because I will take the
Jags all day on that one with the points at
home plus one and a half. Please, Trevor Lawrence, do
not get too full of yourself.

Speaker 1 (01:33:35):
This is locked in right it is. You know what's
in the East Coast hurricane? Yeah, minor detail, minor minor detail.
I guess it's not a dome we could So who's
got the better run game? Yeah? Has looked great. Yeah,
but that's one we got too well wash my mouth. Well,

(01:34:00):
you in the pit and me and I think that's
my hated right. I think Sharbon is on my fantasy team.
My fantasy team has a new name. By the way,
we're chairman, Mew now chairman. We had the dictator had
to come in and make some changes, starting with the
team name. We're the artist formerly known as pum Puma's posse.

(01:34:23):
We are now chair That's correct, that's what ye like
cats do. Of course, the two pussys are gonna be out.
Who's the second one like the aristocrats? Oh yeah, oh yes, yes,
is the You can also uh, you can also chalk.

Speaker 2 (01:34:43):
That new name up to his creator creativity. I love
that you're starting to enjoy the creative event.

Speaker 1 (01:34:51):
Of the FCC rules. Uh. And then lastly, let's get
one more on before we talk. A little college football.
Almost a blowout coming for It's pretty shocking right now.
It looks like the Giants are about to go up
already up ten dark. Speaking of NFC East Final game,
we're picking Bears at Commanders. I didn't tell you this line.

(01:35:13):
I don't think you want to guess what it is.
Commanders Bears at Commander Bears at Commanders Monday Night Football.
I'm going Washington plus three and a half.

Speaker 2 (01:35:23):
You mean three and a half point favorite? Yeah, minus
even bigger, Washington minus four and a half.

Speaker 1 (01:35:30):
Four and a half. I'm always like one off, but
it just means you're now. So here's here's the big
thing I'm looking at. Because they said he might be
playing Jaden. Nope, Jaden is playing for sure. McLaurin, Oh yeah,
Terry McLaurin is questionable. Has he practiced? Did not practice

(01:35:53):
on Thursday? Not looking good man? Bill Bill Merritt lit
my ass up last night or last week in fantasy
he was I think he ended up with thirty something
points against me. Crosby Marrit. Yeah, we're just calling him
Bill Merritt around these parts. Bill Merritt. This is also
the it.

Speaker 2 (01:36:13):
Sounds like someone that fixed my carburetor whenever I was
in high school.

Speaker 1 (01:36:18):
This is also the game last year.

Speaker 2 (01:36:20):
You remember it was one of the one score games
that Washington won. They were eight and one in one score.

Speaker 1 (01:36:27):
This was the Hail Mary where the Chicago player was celebrating. Right. Added,
there's still there's added narrative.

Speaker 2 (01:36:38):
To go along with this game. Yeah you mentioned, of
course Jaden versus Caleb.

Speaker 1 (01:36:43):
Ye, and it's minus four and a half indeed, indeed,
and the Bears are coming off a bye that's right, yep.

Speaker 2 (01:36:56):
And the bye teams this week Minnesota and Houston, So
that's why they're missing.

Speaker 1 (01:37:01):
From the What do you mean? Do you go on this?
I'll go this one first, Yeah, you go this one.

Speaker 2 (01:37:07):
I don't trust Washington enough to trust them to cover
four and a half points.

Speaker 1 (01:37:13):
You're gonna pick Bears.

Speaker 2 (01:37:15):
I think I'm gonna pick Bears because one, I think
Washington wins, but I think twenty seven twenty four's pretty likely.

Speaker 1 (01:37:25):
I think twenty one twenty five. That's a funny number.
This is this, This is gonna be a make or
break because we're we're opposing what three out of four
right now? We are we are indeed, we are oppositely.
Somebody is going to gain. It's because I'm going Washington, Okay,
I love it. Someone's gonna get a big lead. And

(01:37:48):
just because of my down week the two weeks ago,
I feel like I got the juice, I got all
the momentum.

Speaker 2 (01:37:55):
Caps commanders minus four and a half, and I will
stick to my word and take bears plus the points
I will tell you looking at.

Speaker 1 (01:38:06):
Looking at ours. Not only are we split on four
of our five picks, it's also interesting to me. You
picked three underdogs. I picked three underdogs. Wait, oh yeah,
because we got the same underdog.

Speaker 2 (01:38:24):
So you picked the underdog Panthers. You pick the underdog Niners,
you pick the underdog Lions. I picked the underdog Lions,
underdog Jags, underdog Bears. So it's gonna be the dogs
that are determining who has the better week, which.

Speaker 1 (01:38:38):
Is even more chaos. I love it. I love it Roties.
I always felt like Baja Boys would have been better
at literation, but I guess you want to be a
man man dad. Speaking of if you are you watching
that new Monster with the story of Eden, Oh I

(01:39:02):
haven't yet. I'm not as big on the Ryan Murphy
over fantasize. So you got Jack Killer, Sons and Anarchy,
which I'm sure you're too cool to watch. I mean,
I've seen every episode five times each. Love that show. Really, no,
not at all. I've never seen five episodes of it,
oh man. But whenever you hear I'm too cool for

(01:39:24):
Sons of Man like the guy I'm the guy that
listens to wet leg Yeah, I don't watch Sons of
Cool Bro so cool, that's fair. I'll take that. Uh.
When you're watching that, he has the voice and it's

(01:39:46):
the main character, Jack Steller, who's the hard biker guy,
and he's the little cross dressing ganal like this okay yeah,
And then I'm like, why this is so bugging me
because he sounds just like Derek Zulander. That is very
unstable of this is a school for ants. This must

(01:40:10):
be at least three times bigger. Who is the guy?
Anybody out there? I just like, you're not You're not
gonna hear you can unhear it. Once she puts Zulander
and Eggyen in those voices together, and it's such a graphic.
Oh man. There was scenes I'm watching with my friend
and we're just like looking at each other and she's
a female, and I'm like, we're both like, oh my god,

(01:40:33):
what's it on Netflix? Okay, so they can get away
with a little bit. Yeah, talk about I guess everyone
gets so he's a he thinks he thought he was
a transsexual, and he dressed up in women's underwear.

Speaker 2 (01:40:47):
And we're talking about this is the guy that like
inspired and Psycho Texas.

Speaker 1 (01:40:54):
That's the one I'm That's why I like this show
is real quick with this it goes into each each. Yeah,
please episode hurry because we've got to talk South Florida,
North Texas. Yeah, it morphs into each like it has
Alfred Hitchcock in the beginning of Psycho making it and
then it goes through the actual story and it just

(01:41:15):
goes back and forth like that. Oh so it actually yeah,
it like shows you how it's like, yeah, okay, that
goes to Texas Chainsaw Masker during the Vietnam where it's like,
oh you ever heard the story by like my my
neighbor used to live next to this monster egge where
they call him the ghoul of Midtown or something like that,

(01:41:38):
and then at the very end, silence of the lambs,
you know, tucking it back. Oh yeah, okay, that.

Speaker 2 (01:41:46):
What he's like Midwestern, right, like most of the worst
serial killers we've ever had Wisconsin. I wanted to say
Ohio just because I always want to he's eating always
want to pin it on Ohio.

Speaker 1 (01:41:57):
We do have to talk a little college football before
we get to the lightning round. Yeah, the update.

Speaker 2 (01:42:02):
Coming out of the Red River shootout, John Mattier is
going to try to play. It looks like the stud
Ou quarterback Washington State transferred.

Speaker 1 (01:42:11):
Don't think anything less like the.

Speaker 2 (01:42:13):
Thumb surgery a week and a half ago, two weeks
ago on his throwing hand. Call me, call me crazy,
but I'm not so sure how effective he's going to be.

Speaker 1 (01:42:26):
Like, I don't know if you see this, like knuckle right,
good lord, Yeah, thats up. I like slid into third
when I was playing. We were like on the verge
of trying to go to a Little League World Series
a round rock and I slid into third at a
tournament and I jam, like, I know, I dislocated the crap,
That's what happened to that. And I just like pulled
on it and then I went back and it was

(01:42:46):
all swollen. Still went at bat, and you know what
I did, tomaw, I pitched. Oh even better when I'm
throwing hand. Yes, okay, well then you're convincing. It was
like it was like this. I was like, I literally
couldnot put that third finger on the ball, but I
did hit about four people. But again minor details details. Well,

(01:43:07):
John Mattier probably is hoping he might he might be
able to get away with playing like Cam Newton ass
and still winning this game, because I'm not sure what
to make of Texas's chances in this game. It is again,
what's the what's the line on it? Take a guest, dude,
This one makes. This one makes even less sense than

(01:43:28):
all of the NFL lines we talked about. I'm giving
it away ut minus two and a half, minus one
and a half Texas. Yeah, that doesn't make any I
guess because he's in.

Speaker 2 (01:43:39):
Because there, because the uncertainty of Matier being available is
the only explanation.

Speaker 1 (01:43:47):
Just did the Spider Man jump back and you're you're right.

Speaker 2 (01:43:50):
The game opened Texas minus two and a half and
that was before Mattier looked like well just for the
fact that he might that he's now questionable and not
just rolled out.

Speaker 1 (01:44:05):
Yeah, I uh five and oh number six ranked oh
you two thirty kickoff and the beautifully newly renovated Cotton
Bowl up there in Dallas. Yeah, so they they added
escalators because the play if you've never been there for Texas,
ou dude, you are, it is literally a cattle show,
like you're you're at the fat stock show, just lining

(01:44:28):
up to be slotted. That was like Gaylord Stadium. It
was like these rams to keep going. I'm like, it's bad,
Like I'm dying here. It was, and it was eleven
degrees with the wind chill of like negative two. And
I'm like, what game was that for Oak Oak State?

Speaker 2 (01:44:46):
Yeah, they added escalators, they did add some more suits,
of course, got to keep the richies happy. But they
also added just like bathrooms stuff like that. That is,
you know, the facility was so bad, he's got to
put yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:45:00):
Yeah, and then it's a nickel for every ply of
toilet paper because they got to pay for the credit card,
credit card charges like now with Apple pay. Yeah, we'll
put a twenty five dollars hold on this in case
you want to take another piss. Do you feel like
this is gonna be a long dump exactly? Just go
ahead and pay and pay it out. You're gonna need

(01:45:21):
four flushes. You and I both know it. Just go
ahead and give us. And you're like, no, and I
gotta buy a toilet paper, damn it. I gotta pick
one or the other.

Speaker 2 (01:45:35):
Yeah, I will admit the hype for this game. I
mean it's always Texas ou I grew up going to
it a lot with you know, with the family living
up there. So they change it. They're not doing eleven anymore.
It's two thirty now, So yeah, I disagree. I prefer
the eleven because you play the game.

Speaker 1 (01:45:53):
I want them sauce. I will say this, I want
them sauce. Dude, you should go up there.

Speaker 2 (01:45:58):
See what Friday night and Dallas looks like everyone is
already hammer wasted. It's it's it's really fun. Actually, I
like it whenever I was a kid. I liked it
when it was at eleven because you would go to
the game and then you spend the rest of your
day in the State Fair, which I hear straight fair
could use a little more visitors this year. I think

(01:46:19):
they're I think everything is struggling. Uh, but the the
hype for this game is absolutely undercut by the Materi
injury and obviously by the Texas Florida loss. You know,
Texas three and two coming into it. Oh, you undefeated
number six, but might not have their starting quarterback, might
be Hawkins again. Uh taking snaps. I I mean, I'm

(01:46:44):
gonna love it. I'm gonna watch it. I'm gonna hope
Texas pulls off. I'm hoping we see the arch, hoping
we see the arch breakout signature moment. You but that
that the fact that Texas's favorite, that even with the
Materi injury, if you told me my Tears not playing,
I would still probably say, oh, you should be the
favorite in this game.

Speaker 1 (01:47:05):
But actually, man, I got on the bench in two leagues.
The geniuses in Vegas disagree.

Speaker 2 (01:47:11):
Other notable games I did jokingly mention the South Florida
un T game. This is one of those games that
when we get to the end of the season, this
could be the decider of who gets in from the
group of five from the lesser small compas South Florida.
So South Florida is four and one, they're number twenty

(01:47:32):
four in the country. Un T is five and zero
and un T doesn't have many more challenges on their schedule,
so you could end up seeing a undefeated North Texas
North Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:47:48):
I was like all right, I was like, why why
you should go see un T play? Sometimes I was
like I've watched North Texas. I never think of them
as un T. I just always like here in North Texas,
Like did you hear that level of FCC creativity?

Speaker 2 (01:48:01):
No, and we got to move on because if I
double down, you should go back and uh, North Texas
will absolutely be rocking.

Speaker 1 (01:48:10):
Denton will be crazy for this game. It's a Friday
night game.

Speaker 2 (01:48:13):
Oh so you get you're going up against the BFW
high school scene of the.

Speaker 1 (01:48:18):
Big twelve and that conferences always get the Friday nights.

Speaker 2 (01:48:24):
Yeah, because they got to try to find a way
to establish a footprint amongst the rest of the conferences.
Big you know, big conference implications here with the American
Conference also home to UTSA, should say UTSA taking on Rice.
I believe it's homecoming as well in the dome. That

(01:48:44):
game's actually the UTSA game is going to be a
national broadcast on ESPN U Night Game six thirty Saturday night.

Speaker 1 (01:48:53):
Other ranked matchups on the schedule. That's the right, Birds up, goddass,
Birds up. Ohio State still number one, traveling to LG's
not back there crying because his Eagles are losing.

Speaker 2 (01:49:04):
Traveling to I always forget he's a damn Eagles fan. Uh,
traveling to a team I can't make out or what
to think of them? Number seventeen Illinois five and one,
but they got smoked by Indiana.

Speaker 1 (01:49:18):
But Indiana. Indiana is number seven. Yeah, and they traveled
to number three Oregon this week. Is that the game
of the week. That's the only top ten matchup on
the on the docs sixty game, uh, the.

Speaker 2 (01:49:32):
Indiana Oregon that is two thirty. That's your CBS window too,
thirty six thirty game the main games you're getting another
one I had on the list, Florida traveling to Aggie Land.

Speaker 1 (01:49:45):
That's on ESPN though, see if they come back with
that big Kansas traveling to Lubbock that's on Fox. Wow. Okay,
And that's the biggest that's the biggest challenge Tech has
outside of byu UH and Arizona State, Like this is
one of the only other winning teams they play the
rest of the way, the ABC Night Game number ten,

(01:50:09):
Georgia traveling to Auburn three and two Auburn Fine. And
then the NBC Night Game number fifteen, Michigan traveling to
usc which again is a big ten matchup.

Speaker 2 (01:50:23):
Now both teams four and one. So there's some I
like some of those games.

Speaker 1 (01:50:27):
It's a fun Miami on BI I believe.

Speaker 2 (01:50:32):
So yeah, yeah, I didn't. I didn't have them on
the list. It's fun. I always love it when and
Ole miss number four they play a weird game. They're
playing Washington State in Oxford at home, so shouldn't be
much of a challenge there. The only other ranked matchup
we didn't mention number eight Bama traveling to number fourteen Missouri.

(01:50:57):
Pretty fun game. Missouri has the leading rusher in the country.

Speaker 1 (01:51:02):
Say they score some points. Kid that was.

Speaker 2 (01:51:04):
A zero or a half star recruit coming out of
high school tore it up at Uh. Yeah, dude, if
I have to watch Dart and Scataboo for the next
decade it I don't think I'm gonna enjoy.

Speaker 1 (01:51:20):
Good Lord, he's just a machine. Dude. Yeah the uh,
I think it's pretty to me at least. Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:51:28):
The college football Saturday slate way more exciting than the
NFL Sunday lineup, So uh, enjoy the college football, enjoy
the NFL football this weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:51:41):
Did we have any any super chats? LG. I didn't
see any come through. I don't think those super chats.

Speaker 2 (01:51:48):
Well, if that's the case, uh, let's jump into some
lightning round. Shall we mm hmm hit him in the case.
So did either one of y'all happen to see the
USA under twenties game this afternoon.

Speaker 1 (01:52:06):
No, okay, I wish I thought that was Friday. It
was this. It was.

Speaker 2 (01:52:10):
It's on a tape for what. I don't know the reasoning,
but it was. I watched it on peacock in Spanish.
But then they're playing it right now. Actually, I think
it was a eight o'clock primetime.

Speaker 1 (01:52:23):
Anything happened to the kids, We don't want the people
to see it.

Speaker 2 (01:52:26):
Yeah, well something did happen, but it was good. After
they beat France three nothing in the group stages, they
turned around and beat Italy three nothing today in the
round of sixteen, and they are progressing the quarterfinal game
Sunday afternoon.

Speaker 1 (01:52:44):
I never looked.

Speaker 2 (01:52:47):
I never looked to see they were playing the winner
of Morocco and South Korea and Morocco Morocco's got a
good young group. They beat South Korea two to one,
so we'll get.

Speaker 1 (01:52:57):
So it's half the country having to root for soccer,
just like just reeling in there. I think the the
twenty all like America's doing good in soccer. Just wait,
I think, just wait till the World Cup next summers,
they're going I think I fear they're going to get
their chance to have some falling at the expense of

(01:53:20):
American soccer is always Sonny in Philadelphia, Charlie whenever he's
like he's going to America all over your ass. Yeah,
we're gonna drive big trucks and plays that flag of America.
It's like show flag. It's still funny, it's still got it,
it's still got its fastball. Uh hit me LG. We're

(01:53:44):
gonna go. Since you were talking local, I wanted to
give a shout out to my buddy Taran who opened
up elsewhere to last week. Oh yeah, I saw that
with the Ferres w fs. We had fire twirlers. Okay,
it's out. It's like out by Top Golf and everything
right kind of over there Northwest if you call it
Northwest Northwest sixty oh four area where everything getting built up.

(01:54:09):
Every time I go over it seems like a new
thing is getting built. But he had a such a
successful weekend that was supposed to be a soft open
invite only well that was a Friday and I could
unfortunately couldn't go, but they had to shut down because
they had they were just out of everything. I saw
that they literally had to restock everything. They had plates

(01:54:31):
and Napkins, every free sun, little cooler alcoholic beverages, and
I mean if there, if you get a chance, go
out there and check it out. It's I mean, it's
a fun time. Man. He looks like a destination. Yeah,
he definitely knows how to get a vibe going man
like and you know, as a forty year old saying, hey,

(01:54:52):
the vibe, the vibes like the vibe.

Speaker 2 (01:54:55):
Look, this might be a dumb question, but it's elsewhere
too because of the elsewhere in my neighborhood.

Speaker 1 (01:55:01):
That was his first one which could Congratulations on the
new bar opening. I hope it does well out here
and white people and hit me. LG got a couple
of follow ups from uh we talked about this story
when it happened. But Rampage, Jackson's son plea pled not

(01:55:23):
guilty earlier today to the felony battery charges that he
is facing. Yeah, because that was a stage. The camera
was still in his face. It looked like he looked
like he was told this.

Speaker 2 (01:55:36):
It's gonna be in I think it's going to be
an interesting trial because there there's going to be some
arguments made along those.

Speaker 1 (01:55:44):
I don't think it's going to stand a chance, but
because they like they it's a wrestling and then they
promoted like they basically like staged it, and a.

Speaker 2 (01:55:53):
Jury will have to decide where the line of fake
versus felony started and is it not.

Speaker 1 (01:56:00):
The fact that they're going to a felony is ridiculous, dude.
I don't know it should I know, but it should
just be civil court. That's assault, brother batter vision. But
like literally some of these wrestlers are like, hit me
for real, sure, like just do it? Sure, but like, yeah,
you know you raised a yeah, like it was a

(01:56:22):
small Like did you see how many people were in
the It wasn't it looked like maybe like Somerville County
Stock Show Expo Center. All Right, hit me LG. Shout
out to roy Alvarez and zeb both give us two
dollars at the very end of the lightning round. Roy
is for the star oh the stars one Hey, so

(01:56:43):
I will give you four stars. I will give you
a little tasty treat stars at never mind, google the
name Oceana Dodan, who made headlines on her recent return
to the w t A. That's tennis by the way,
Women's Tennis Arena or how the hell openly sharing that
she went under breast augmentation.

Speaker 2 (01:57:06):
Oh that's surgery. That's pretty popular. Oh wait, no, she
went the opposite way because we don't need visual on that.

Speaker 1 (01:57:17):
You're holding your phone up to the camera to show
so professional athlete, that is. Oh change with the O
C with the uh the little N A on top
of the E A N E D O D I in.
You're welcome, fellas, Thank you, thank you for the super chats.

Speaker 2 (01:57:36):
Ah, yes, zeb the dollar ninety nine bribe money, thank you,
thank you, hit me LG.

Speaker 1 (01:57:41):
I got a couple more here, uh little NBA news.

Speaker 2 (01:57:45):
As of course, we are thirteen days away from Spurs
opening night. Poor Lebron's got sciatica. He's gonna miss three
to four weeks and.

Speaker 1 (01:57:54):
Old man pretty much first games it is. It's going
to be the first open he misses of his career.
Did you see what the lowest ticket price for the
last game of the Lakers is right now? Like eight
hundred something bucks? Right? Oh, you're going you're going too
hard for nosebleeds.

Speaker 2 (01:58:12):
Okay, I saw it spiked whenever he did the stupid
decision too, and then it turned out to be the
Hennessy ad Oh oh, yeah, and people someone's already filed
a class action lawsuit against us. They bought like a
thousand because they thought that was gonna be the decision.

Speaker 1 (01:58:28):
And I'm gonna come up all those people with the
hand sanitizers stores. Sure of course. I also I think
draft Kings are one of the gambling companies. Also tweeted
out a fake graphic that Lebron was announcing his retirement
and that drove ticket prices. Are we are we going
to get AI regulated when they start affecting the line

(01:58:50):
on bets? I would yeah, I mean probably, well you AI.
Then all of a sudden, Dak just has his leg
like this back, you know. Okay, there's I'm saying that
like that elsewhere in NBA news, you look like a
Ostrich elsewhere in NBA news. We got the first schedule

(01:59:11):
for Inside the NBA now on ESPN since leaving. I'm
at least happy to see this.

Speaker 2 (01:59:18):
They're going to do a full hour pregame Wednesday night
next Wednesday six to seven or five five to six
Central time.

Speaker 1 (01:59:28):
No, it's still Kenny, Chuck, Shot and Kenny, all of them. Everyone.
That's good to hear.

Speaker 2 (01:59:35):
Ernie, I mean Ernie Kenny Chuck Shack, all of them
are there. It's still being produced by t n T
and it so ESPN all they're doing is broadcasting it.
But more importantly, they're going to do full postgame shows.
So we're not gonna jump right into Sports Center. We're
gonna get inside the NBA postgame like we should, like

(01:59:57):
it was on tn T. So I don't trust the
ESPN as far as I can throw them, and I
know they're going to screw this up somehow, but at
least we have some confidence that we're going to get
the same amount of screen time.

Speaker 1 (02:00:10):
What was the line that we used the line on this.

Speaker 2 (02:00:13):
That was, I told I have it it Eagles minus
seven and a half. Wow, you could have made a
bunch of money on the money line if you picked
the Giants straight up.

Speaker 1 (02:00:22):
Yeah. Yeah. As we sit here and it's thirty four
seventeen Giants at the two morning it right now, the
NFC East is gonna get pretty interesting this year because
I don't think anybody's good. I don't think Washington's will,
I don't think Dallas is good. I Thigson Jackson dart Is.
My last pick was.

Speaker 2 (02:00:43):
A good keeper to hold on to hit me one
more time, LG. You got anything else before we get
out of here?

Speaker 1 (02:00:49):
All right? Trio of local News. First of all, long
time absolute legend here in San Antonio, longtime Central Catholic
basketball coach Joe Cortel has passed away earlier this week
at ninety four years old.

Speaker 2 (02:01:03):
I saw Don Harris do a very nice, touching tribute
to him, talking about how he was when Don was
growing up.

Speaker 1 (02:01:13):
It was, you know, Joe.

Speaker 2 (02:01:14):
Being a camp counselor at Spurs basketball camps and stuff
like that. Absolutely a legend in the community. Was at
one point the all time winningest basketball coach in San
Antonio history. Eventually got passed by the I'm blanking on
his name, the Alamo Heights head coach. He ended up

(02:01:35):
passing mister Cortes coach Cortes but some power king. Absolutely
apparently it was his son that announced he had family
all around him as he passed away peacefully in hospice
earlier this week. And also bad news, this one not
involving death. Have you either of y'all been following the

(02:01:58):
Holy Cross story about the teacher coach there He got arrested.

Speaker 1 (02:02:05):
For like videotaping he was recording.

Speaker 2 (02:02:08):
He had a camera in his alarm, in his clock
in his office, an office that he shared with the
female volleyball coach, and the female apparently the coach that
got arrested. One of the kids went to move his clock,
and the coach slipped up and said, this is all
according again, according to all alleged and according to police

(02:02:32):
report that had been released your own investigation. Believe them
at your own peril. They've already changed parts of the
story where they said he had multiple students recorded, and
now they've come back and said, well, actually no, that
that part's not true, but the volleyball coach part is.
So Apparently one of the students messed with the clock

(02:02:53):
and the coach slipped up and said, hey, don't touch
my camera, I mean clock, And the student was like, camera,
what are you talking about, coach? It's I got nothing nothing,
Just put it back. And so then the kid went
and told the volleyball coach was like, you might want
to check that clock, and when she did, she found
the SD card that was in there connected to the camera.

(02:03:17):
She sends the SD card to her daughter. I believe
uh and asked, well, because she I don't think she
understood necessarily how to get not as tech and client.
Well again, if it's if it's not explicit, if it's
just changing and you need help from something, because what
else are you going to take it to the geek
squad at best Buy? You don't want them looking at it.

(02:03:40):
I mean, if you don't know how to give cards,
you voyear off ends up coming hey ends up coming
back that. Yeah, indeed, there were.

Speaker 1 (02:03:55):
Uh some images on the SD card of her undressing
and redressing.

Speaker 2 (02:04:01):
So uh, that will be a trial we follow as
it's only beginning, and and two and again. Oh yeah,
another one, another one of these buses. So he's young,
fairly young, he's like thirty two, thirty four and again
all charges alleged.

Speaker 1 (02:04:18):
He is claiming.

Speaker 2 (02:04:19):
The facts of the story will come out and we'll
be on his side. So let the process play out.
We'll see, we'll see how that goes.

Speaker 1 (02:04:29):
Kind of like, uh, I was just checking to see
my kids were like stealing stuff from like making sure
they weren't vaping in the locker room. It was actually
because I love the kids so much. I do it
all for the kids. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:04:41):
And then lastly, I know, surely y'all saw this story
because we had a hell of a rumble at the
Wigerberger at Blanco and Bitterers a couple of days ago.

Speaker 1 (02:04:54):
Did you not see this at all? I'm a virgin
on this one.

Speaker 2 (02:04:57):
Oh my god. Okay, well then I'm glad. I'm glad
you have. I haven't seen this yet.

Speaker 1 (02:05:01):
Uh. Seven people end up getting arrested. It's three am
in the morning, water burger. Nothing good happens at three am.

Speaker 2 (02:05:10):
Age range of the people arrested twenty one to fifty seven. Yes,
the fifty seven year old shares a name with one
of the younger kids, so it looks like it potential
dad or uncle or relative of some sort.

Speaker 1 (02:05:23):
Potentially. So it all started because they're out taketos. There's
two groups, almost almost there's two groups sitting in the
water Burger.

Speaker 2 (02:05:35):
Three am. Employee comes out, he's got one of the orders.
He puts it down at the table and then walks away,
so the table realizes it's not their order. So now
they're mad.

Speaker 1 (02:05:49):
God like a common mistake just is unconstitutional, and we've
got to fight the problem. This is where it kind
of falls.

Speaker 2 (02:06:00):
Obviously, the responsibility for starting a fight starts and ends
with the people that actually did the fighting, but the
Waterburger employee apparently told them when he was alerted that
it was the wrong order.

Speaker 1 (02:06:15):
Instead of getting the food himself, he just yelled at
the other group, Hey, they've got your food. I put
it at the wrong table, Like they've got your order.
That's an honest thing. Yeah, but at three in the morning,
when both parties are drowning with people, that's why I
don't want Like, I'm like, I'm not going out there.
And that's exactly what it sounds like. So the Waterburger,

(02:06:36):
I don't want to know my eighteen year old kid
going out there. Like completely agree.

Speaker 2 (02:06:40):
But at the same time, Waterburger, you made a mistake,
and it's your responsibility to fix it because you're the
restaurant that is serving the food. It's not up to
the citizens to handle it themselves, because this is what
it looks like when the citizens handle it themselves at
Waterburger at three o'clock in the morning, when there's been

(02:07:01):
a mistake with the order.

Speaker 1 (02:07:02):
He loved these. Oh just wait, there's some. There's some
the machiese mo in there. Wo. Yeah, that's the big sucker.
That's a big that's yeah, I'm like, why did you
hold on, hold on, hold on to this guy? This
guy is a sucker punching little the one the gray.

Speaker 2 (02:07:25):
Yeah, and then there's a there's a water Burger employee
that was off the clock who has now been he
is no longer an employee at.

Speaker 1 (02:07:32):
That water burger. I'm sure we got some body shots
going in there, some kidney shots. Oh girls, why do
you try to jump in? Well, I mean because no,
you don't, because all of a sudden they get hit
and it just escalates. I think that was the number
one rule. I would like scream it like it toe

(02:07:55):
like as a bouncer, like when I had like people,
I'm like, you make sure a girl does not jump
in the fight, because that only escalates the fight. Yeah.
That leads to even saying, now I gotta worry about
this girl instead of dealing with the main just the guy.
Then she goes over there and gets hit with the
back hand, like my buddy back and his own girl,

(02:08:16):
and he was paying. John's brother buried the lead. That
is the other thing.

Speaker 2 (02:08:24):
Luckily, a lot of these kids, I mean they know
none of None of these people are training at the gym,
None of these people are John Cena's they're all.

Speaker 1 (02:08:32):
Young, but they got that. Yeah, but there weren't. There
wasn't a whole lot of John Scena. Ain't that big.
John Cena's brother was barely pushing bigger than three of
these dudes combined in muscle mass. And what is the
last time you've seen John Cena's brother.

Speaker 2 (02:08:49):
I couldn't even tell you. I'm assuming he's from the
Sino line. It's like I assume Gronk's brothers.

Speaker 1 (02:08:56):
Or looks like all the other versions of anyway he was.
He was being a hole, like I was there, not
on duty or nothing, but I just saw him. And
then his girl comes over, who she could whoop most guys,
you know. He's like, he's like, don't he doesn't know
who's grabbing on him pulling away, so he goes back

(02:09:18):
with a hand like this. Clocks are right in the face.
And then it's like four dudes trying to rush on them,
and then we all got to go rush on them.
It was like, yo, I was like, why did you
do that? That's a bad situation for everybody starting with
an A, and we all know what it is. This
is why I give you, I give you a guess.

(02:09:38):
What's it starts with the nay brother of John Cena. No,
that's the girl. Oh oh yeah, okay checks out. Yeah,
you know he doesn't know the person by the way,
he just you know that person always starts crap with
that name. That checks out.

Speaker 2 (02:09:56):
That checks out on that note, y'all stop fighting at Waterburger.
Stop going to Waterburger at three am to begin with
their Chicago company now unless uh, unless Waterburger wants to
sponsor lightning around and then seeing the praises of the
honey butter chicken biscuit once again.

Speaker 1 (02:10:14):
Put a little egg on that, a little bacon on that.
You can get real creative with the ads of mail,
start putting together all kinds of combination. You get the
honey butter on the side because you don't want you
don't want the biscuit crumbling up.

Speaker 2 (02:10:28):
Okay, that's actually the best piece of advice you've potentially
ever given me, because.

Speaker 1 (02:10:33):
That's my biggest complaint. That's the fat boy complaint I
have for those I I worship at the altar of
your Waterburger knowledge, LG. Get us out of here. That's right.
With that note, Tell the people where they can get
more Waterburger insight like that from the Captain's Chair two
on Twitter and Instagram.

Speaker 2 (02:10:51):
Uh find me on x at Biggest Puma on Instagram,
Biggest Dot Puma LG stream on Saturday.

Speaker 3 (02:10:59):
Uh yeah, Saturday and tomorrow night. If you're at the
Spurs game, be looking for me. I may just put
you up on the jumbo trunks if you're lucky.

Speaker 1 (02:11:07):
That's right. I might have to kiss some random person
back in the.

Speaker 2 (02:11:11):
Office tomorrow night with the Spurs. We will be back
Tuesday night. Also, I'll be back filling in for Andy
next Friday on ticket as well, so be looking for that.

Speaker 1 (02:11:21):
I'll remind you next week. Till then, y'all, enjoy the weekend,
enjoy the football, be safe, quit fighting at Waterburger. Peace.
We'll talk next week. Kids.

Speaker 5 (02:11:37):
What do we say about drugs?

Speaker 1 (02:11:43):
Yeah,
