Speaker 2 (00:19):
You're listening to the best of the Odd Couple.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
The Pro Football Hall of Fame, right, not the NFL
Hall of Fame. Pro Football Hall of Fame in Kenohio.
They released the list of their semi finalists. It's weird list.
I don't know how they do their business. You know,
I'm a part of the Baseball of Fame. This is
people are on there for ten years. We saw our
buddy Lomas Brown is on there for the first year,
(00:46):
which is great for lomus about a long career, won
a Super Bowl, went to two Super Bowls, right, lost
one with the Giants and one one with Tampa Bay.
I think is if I'm correct, But rob g some
names on the list, of course quarterback heavy Yeah, I
was gonna throw you guys at bonus. Let's do a
whole segment on Lomas Brown front of the show. Like
(01:06):
he deserved to be first ballot, Yes, or No. Eight
seven seven five first ballot.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Good guys, he's a great football. He's great and because
we like him, we want to give him even more shine.
Now I really want to see him first ballot.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
But then I kept scrolling down the list and I
was like, oh, man, I guess we gotta do this
one instead.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
Because the last time we talked about.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
The Hall of Fame in depth on this show was
on Radio Row and got a little contentious between the
two y'all. And that is because Robin had been saying
for years, anybody who would listen, Eli, man, he is
a first ballot Hall of Famous.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
It's ridiculous what they had, just like what they did
to Lamar this past year.
Speaker 6 (01:47):
Just that's way.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
Worse than he did not get in on the first ballot.
But it's okay.
Speaker 6 (01:53):
Rose. You were in on that too.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
You and I both were like we saw that and
one time you guys got something.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
Now he's eligible on this second year on the ballot.
Speaker 6 (02:01):
Right not to that day, by the way, josh Aden
I said, right.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
The only problem though, I mean, this might not too on,
this might not really impact his standing, but it could
there's a new first time.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
Guy on the ballot, new sheriff in town.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Another guy who eventually will be in the Hall of Fame,
if not first ballot, none other than Drew Brees. So
this year's upcoming class will have three quarterbacks on the list.
You can vote for Philip Rivers. We're not gonna talk
about him for now, Eli Manning, and Drew Brees. Here's
the question I'm gonna ask each of you, if you
can only vote for one, Drew Brees or Eli Manning
(02:39):
getting in the Hall of Fame in twenty twenty six,
who are you voting for?
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Dub Well, you know it's easy for him, so it's
easy for me because we know who is not for me.
Speaker 6 (02:50):
So to answer is Drew Breesy.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
It's easy with Breezy is Drew Brees, And to be
honest with you, is not even close. I absolutely respect
Eli's Super Bowl titles. That's you play the game to win,
so I give him credit for that. You're talking out
of both sides. Gym up, make your case for you.
Speaker 6 (03:05):
It's easy as Drew crazy. Now let me tell you why.
So easy as Drew Brees. Let me tell you why.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Eighty thousand passing yards and it's not even close, not
like all r Well, he's got seventy eighty thousand to
fifty seven thousand. Drew Brees has five hundred and seventy
one touchdowns to Manning's three hundred and sixty six hey
two hundred and five touchdown difference. Drew Brees was known.
He set records for completion percentage sixty eight for his career.
(03:34):
Manning had significantly less than that. Drew Brees won one
hundred and seventy two games versus one hundred and fifteen
losses exactly five hundred. The definition of mid for Eli.
Manning won eighteen to win eighteen. Now he's got a
Super Bowl ring. He beat paid Manny for that, won
MVP of that Super Bowl, and also multiple All Pro selections.
This is a big one for me. He has four
(03:56):
four time MVP runner up, so winning you're one of
them vps did he win? He was four time runner up,
which means he was one of the best quarterbacks for
multiple years for several years, and defenses had to game
plan for it. They came in, we got to shut
down Drew Brees in this offense. Nobody ever had a
game plan for Eli Manny. He was never all pro,
which means his own peers and writers and they never
(04:19):
even consider him one of the best. So again, Eli
was good, there's nothing wrong, but he does have to
be a Hall of Famer, and to me, he's not.
And if I have to pick between those two, it's easy.
As Drew Brees, he absolutely was the driving force of
that team. Five thousand yards a couple of times he
did that. It's clearly he was the cut above. When
you're talking about the two between those two, to me,
(04:40):
that's an easy one. It's Drew Breesy and it's easy.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Drew Brees is the example of stat padding. Just Drew
Brees threw for that many yards. But can you believe
they win seven and nine three years in a row?
Seven and nine Drew Brees on your you're quarterback with
Sean Payton, who supposedly a genius, they went seven and
(05:06):
nine three years in a row. During his career, he
won to won Super Bowl. Very nice, very nice.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Eli Manning, top ten.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Touchdowns, top ten passing yards, and the most important thing,
when the moment was big and.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
Bright, Eli delivered, not once.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Anybody can win once and be lucky without talent anybody. Okay,
he did it twice. And all you guys who walk
around here talk about damn Brady nigguut, damn Brady niggueut,
which I don't subscribe to because I believe that it's
Joe Montana.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
But all you people who say that, kiss who Eli be?
Speaker 3 (06:00):
He beat Tom Brady not once, but twice, including the
undefeated Patriots in the Super Bowl. You remember the T
shirts that went to Guatemala.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
After the game. Yes, it's still wearing them.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
They got him down there, those eighteen to oh Patriots
T shirts that never saw the light of day. You
guys could do all you want with Eli and act
like he did not perform.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
Was he the greatest quarterback? No?
Speaker 3 (06:32):
If he won one Super Bowl lucked into one, you
would have a case.
Speaker 6 (06:37):
You would.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
But you can't walk around talking about Tom Brady and
how great and how great that Patriots team was. Go
back and look at the throws. It isn't just one
lucky helmet throw. It's not that didn't even win the game.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
It is that's what we play.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
You play to win the Super Bowl when you get
that opportunity. He didn't just get in the Super Bowl
and ride somebody in Joseph's coattail. He was the MVP twice.
Look at my fingers one two.
Speaker 6 (07:19):
This look like you order your order at Mige one two.
This is the only.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Time in the world where a number two is not
a bad thing. It's actually a good thing.
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Are you done?
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Just because you talk slow and you can even no
points with Eli's right points.
Speaker 6 (07:41):
I'm trying to No, I'm trying to. Let me tell
you something.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
I'm trying to because a lot of people it's hard
for him to comprehend it. I get it, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 6 (07:49):
Like, No, I don't. Football is complicated. It's not. And
it's just like be the best at for a real
quick rob.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Seriously, I don't if somebody said Eli Manning, I don't
think it's asinine the question him being in.
Speaker 6 (08:02):
I get that, somebody.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I get to understand a couple of Super Bowl rings
MVPs absolutely can get it. But the identity has to
be in. It is crazy to me because again, it's
not no point. He was the best, Like that's the biggest.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
Thing for me round.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
It's a Tom Brady. You have to be the best
Brady thing and to be Hall of Fame like you
gotta be for a period of time. Disagree you were
one of the best. You know, you have to be one,
but you have to be two or three. Like there
are years where Peyton was one or two and Tom
was one or two and other guys.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
But Eli was always like at best maybe fifth or
six to one.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Oh, but the difference is and you know this too,
even when you look at all All Pro for right
all Pro, Tom Brady only had he played twenty four years,
how many first tops three, three or four?
Speaker 6 (08:46):
How come he only has three or four? You know why?
Because that position they only take two people, Right, It's hard.
I don't disagree with that's really hard.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
So when they use that and hold that against him,
I'm saying Tom Brady's your goat and he only been
to three two times.
Speaker 6 (09:01):
I'm serious, but I'm not even talking.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
But I'm using that as a because it's not like
you're going to be first team All Pro quarterback.
Speaker 6 (09:10):
That's a hard thing when you got through thirty two.
I don't disagree with that. Thirty two quarterbacks and only
one guy gets that slot.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
But I'm saying universally, meaning like if I just stopped
the guy on the street, just a football fan, and I said, Hey,
this season'm making two thousand and four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
whatever year that during his career, you would name five
six guys other including a majority of them years, you
would take Philip Rivers over Eli Man.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
No, I would never take Philip Rivers zero.
Speaker 6 (09:36):
Philip Rivers was a much better quarterback than No. He
was not. He never could win a big game.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
I give you that play in the quarterback position, but
it ain't about it's about It's not just the super Bowl.
I'll give you that if this were just who No,
but that that factors in it. Does Philip Rivers do
other than approcreate? I mean other than that? What did
he do?
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Wait?
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Hold on, I think you just had another one right
now as we speaking, Like seventeen kid, that's not he's
trying to get his jersey number eighty seven calls on
ninety nine Drew Breesy.

Or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Rob g Lank if it had some some thoughts and conversations,
and also we talked about a little bit last week
of people are wondering what he's gonna do with all
these offers that are out there since he's got All
Miss looking good this season.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
The college football playoff rankings have just been released here
in the last minute or so, and if the season
ended today, All Miss and the running Rebels and there
to be determined head coach Lane Kiffin would be in
the playoff. They're currently ranked number six in the latest rankings.
The problem, though, as you alluded to, is we don't
know if he's long for the job. There was reports
(11:27):
as recently his last week that said Hey, we need
an answer about whether or not you're gonna stay in
Ole Miss or you're gonna go to LSU before the
egg Bowl the egg bowls on Saturday coming up, and
so far nothing. In fact, Lane Kiffen was asked hypothetically like, hey,
at this current rate, if you guys went out like
you're supposed to, like you're expected to, you're gonna be
(11:47):
in the playoff and more than likely would be hosting
a playoff game on campus in Oxford. Lane Kiffin was
asked about and here's what he said, quote that would
be the the biggest sporting event in the history of
the state of Mississippi. That's a pretty big statement because
somebody else said and he confirmed it. Guys, if you're
(12:09):
Lane Kiffin, would you rather stay at Old Miss? You're
in the playoffs? Maybe you win one, maybe during your
fifteen to twenty year there run or do you take
the money? Do you run the LSU. More likely you
win one at LSU before you win it Old Miss.
But if you do, you're just one of the next
line of guys who have wanted LSU. Would you rather
(12:32):
be the big dog at Old Miss or the next
dog at LSU?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
It's easy for me big dog at Old Miss. And
the reason why rob G is because college football is
a little different. College football, you can become bigger than
the team or a player like you are the guy.
We talk about Nick Saban, you talk about Bo Sham Beckler,
and you talk about Urban Meyer like you become the thing.
Whereas if you're looking at the NBA, we got games
(12:56):
on in our face. You know it's the Luca led
Lakers or the Lebron this or the Steph Curry. Coaches
in football become the thing. In fact, in some cases,
and especially in the state like Mississippi, you can be
the biggest person in the entire state, the highest paid official,
and you could just become godlike in college football.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
And if you were going to bring a title to
Old Miss.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
We talked about Eli Manning last year, one of the
best players in their history. His dad was as well.
They've had a handful of good players throughout the years.
If you can bring a title to Old Miss, beat
some of these SEC other SEC teams, and you never know,
especially with current day and a trug and Rod where
you have nil money, you got transfer port which allows
(13:39):
you to get players much quicker you can become a
powerhouse much easier now than you could have in years past.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
And you can pus.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Become a powerhouse with the nil now like who aren't
the blue bloods that who always win.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
I won't say powerhouse yet because we got to finish it.
But a great example is Indiana, like out the blue
Indiana last, That's what I said, but I'm saying now
Indiana can.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
I'm gonna wait for them to win a national champions
shipre and and the turnaround has been.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Vanderbilt as well, like you can you can turn programs
around much quicker. Oh miss, f agree with that. Oh,
I don't know if you can win. And that's why
I said, we'll see. And he is in an instance
where he can win it. A couple rom a couple
cook points. LSU, you already have some coaches who have
run it. I just mentioned Nick Saban being one. Nick
Saban has a tied to your smiles Miles has one
(14:25):
and oh seven o three for Nick Saban and ed
Orgeron in twenty nineteen. So LSU has an expectation and
they one of those schools we feel like we should
be competing for titles. Oh miss, They're already having a
great season. Let alone you mess round, get the college
football playoffs. Let alone you get to the you know,
the finals, and that's necessarily win one. So to me,
I think you can take a team with lower expectations
(14:47):
and all of a sudden you become a powerhouse, mess around,
win one or two, and you become legends forever there
and and that to me, that's a better thing that
takes nothing and make it something and make it really good,
especially in this era where you can do so and
compete similar kind of Clemson. Clemson has had this run
over the last ten twelve years or so where they
kind of came out the blue and then our expectation
became that Clemson should be winning national titles or at
(15:10):
least competing for because they've been able to turn that
thing around. Uh Sweeney and dable Sweeney and create a powerhouse.
You got a chance to do that, old miss that
would be a huge story, especially for your career where
Lane Kiffin has always kind of stumbled up somehow. Most
people get a chance or two. He's had multiple chances
at his dad too. Absolutely, absolutely, his dad is legendary
(15:33):
defensive coach.
Speaker 6 (15:34):
Exactly, and that's how he got out. So I just
for me as old miss.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
I get the lure of an LSU or some other places,
but I want to stay a old miss, build something
to build my name.
Speaker 6 (15:43):
Who's the greatest football coach? No period? Nick Saban? Where's he?
Where's he won? LSU? Where else? Alabama?
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Okay, so he won a multiple schools that already have
you know, like had that pedigle that.
Speaker 6 (15:58):
That's my point is that it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
I mean, it sounds like nice fairy tale story and
ole miss and all that. You're not going to No
one's gonna discount you if you go to LSU or
Nick Saban going to don't go to Alabama. Bear Bryant
coach there. Oh my, You'll never be able to get
your own legacy there because coach Bear Bryant coach at Alabama.
(16:23):
Guess what, ain't nobody thinking about coach Bear Bryant. Yogi
the Bear they're thinking about, but not coach Bear Bryant.
Speaker 6 (16:32):
I'm just but Nick had to go crazy.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
My point, well, my point is somebody would Jackson, somebody
would have said to him, don't go there.
Speaker 6 (16:43):
You can't carve out your own legacy.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
That's all would you admit that, and he wound up
carving out his own legacy and building What if he
goes to LSU and wins three in a row, none
of those other coaches you mentioned one three in a row.
Speaker 6 (16:57):
That's how you develop a legacy.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
And you can go and you don't have to stay
at Old Miss that hasn't won and ain't gonna win,
and the chances are harder. I could go to LSU
and and win three in a row and change it.
And I'm just saying that that's how I look at it.
I don't look at it that way. I couldn't make
your own legacy.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
I don't disagree with that, and that's a good point,
but I think for me specifically, if I'm laying Kiffin,
you've already built something at Old Miss. I don't have
I don't have to like I don't have to leave.
I'm getting the great players, I'm getting big names. I've
created a program where guys want to come here. You
got in IL money, and now you ain't gonna have
LSU in IL money. We know that, but you got
to transporportal. You're building something, and not only just from
(17:37):
the program at uh Oh Miss. You're building something for yourself, right,
because I mentioned he's failed a lot of places and
has done and he talked about it, Old Misses. He said,
I'm using his words. Old miss has meant more to
me than I've meant to them because where he was
coming from, his personal life kind of you know, he
was able to get his life back together, get back
on track and win there. Uh plus me and you
(17:57):
talked about this a few weeks ago. The way that
governor the governor be meddling down there in LSU. Hold up,
I might need the governor to leave me alone, so
old Miss I might have to stay over here because
the governor and governor of Louisiana be jumping around in
Governor governor be jumping in the business a little bit
too much. But I listen, I gotta get the lure
of the you know, a couple of big schools, LSU
(18:18):
being one of them, and some other schools that have
been mentioned. I get the bigger a lure the pool there.
But I think he's creating some of the old miss
and I think he wants to that that to be
my thing. Where they saved me personally, I've saved them.
I'm the sessional standpoint, you could go you go to
l s U and do your thing. It's possible.
Speaker 6 (18:35):
People.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
People are gonna rave about, Oh my god, he finally
got to the right program.
Speaker 6 (18:40):
And not only did he win one, Nick Saban only
won one.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
There guess what, he ran off three championships in the
row or back to back or whatever. And that's how
you make your name and that's how you develop. I
just what if you went three in a row at
old Miss, Rob what's the chance of that? What's the
row at LSU better than Old Miss?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
I don't know if it is twenty twenty five of
you to get this. Ten years ago, I've been with you.
But now man again. You can get players, you can trend,
but I don't want to stick around.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
I just don't see anybody winning yet. And what when
they break through? When Indiana wins the national championship, I'll
buy in. Well, listen, I I'm just sure. But I'm
saying because this is new, like we're in our year
for everybody the twenty eight and a half point right now,
they don't win a big game, then I'm gonna have
to take a look back and go away. Really well,
(19:28):
I wouldn't because I would be saying, this is still
like a junior year if you're going high school of
the NIL, meaning this is still coming, this is still happening,
like this isn't ten years, twenty years and then the
NIL and transport is very new considering one hundred years.
And you can't do this, you can't do that, you
can't play players, you can't transfer until this start.
Speaker 6 (19:45):
This is a wild, wild West now and it's just
now really opening up. So has he has it helped
Indiana or not?
Speaker 5 (19:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:52):
So that was perposally just a black basketball. But if
it has, then then they should be able to win.
That's what I'm saying. There's no reason why they can't
win this year. It should be right.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
I mean, you know, I'm sure they would want to
say next year as we get a couple more players,
because they're you know, they're just getting guys in their system.
Whereas other schools in Alabama, Georgia, they've had guys, they
know what their system is, they know their flow.
Speaker 6 (20:13):
This is only their coaches.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (20:15):
But third year, so give or take all it takes
is won. It doesn't matter how many years you you
gotta build a program.
Speaker 5 (20:20):
You know that.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
You can't win the first year. You gotta build a program.
Football you can do that.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
You better off doing that in basketball because if you
just get a guy that the start a guy, you
can win college football if your dudes ain't big as mine,
and if your dudes ain't in fact, that's it, you
know what I mean. Like college basketball, you can be
we have a system. We're Princeton. We do this cut
back door cuts me college football because there's too many guys.
It's twenty two. It's my eleven on offense, my eleven
(20:48):
on defenses. It's too much. That's why you just don't see,
you know, random teams get blown out, Like if they
had a March madness in college football, you would never
see Butler get a shot. Butler ain't beating Georgia and
you know that kind of an nf football version of that.

I'ma scam people like the amount of energy you put
into scamming. I'm just talking to you can have got

when the package just explode the audacity Like they look
like what did you do?

What?
Speaker 6 (22:06):

Yes?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Rob, g am I wrong? They look like like they're pissed. Yeah,
you just stole my packing.
Speaker 5 (22:14):
No, you're so right.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
You can't turn left from It's it's amazing. Yeah, they're
getting brazen too. It's not like over night two am

middle of the day.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
But it doesn't stop them, Like they know these videos

don't think it's gonna be in there.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
It won't be me.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
Oh yeah, I saw that on YouTube that ain't gonna

fall off the porch or theick face or car whatever.
I'm just like wow and they just they just look
like my ear and that blew my ears out.
Speaker 6 (22:47):
Stop stealing.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
By the way, while you talking about they don't act
like you wasn't looking at a bunch of videos or
people fall and hurting themselves, the good people, normal people,
not thieves. Which ones the videos you were watching? People
just falling all over the place, that's what you're wanting. No, No,
that was that was the the package.
Speaker 6 (23:00):
The packages.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
Well, speaking of scammeras ro bet you wings dot com.

Rob good. We just stared at the camera for a second.

Speaker 6 (23:29):
I'm hurting. It's Alex dying in the background as what

Speaker 1 (23:33):
Oh my gosh, Robbie Rogie wanted to Yeah, that was
his official he was.
Speaker 6 (23:38):
He was ready to Joel Rob I've never not gave
a Christmas gift.

found at Ross's back. It is taken back. You just
lost your your daughter's gifts, taking back everything.
Speaker 4 (23:54):

Speaker 6 (24:00):
What means doesn't finish.
Speaker 5 (24:01):
She's tiny. She's still a little tiny.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
Yeah, because that's for twelve months.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
Yeah, yeah, I'm excited for her to wear was she
she's one, right, just one?
Speaker 6 (24:10):
Yeah, but she's still It's crazy. That's been a year already.
That is crazy.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
I'll send you the picture when she finally fits in it.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Okay, Now he's trying to say, always nice to you, Rob.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
That was like Alex was.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
Like, you just say that joke, Robbie, say the joke.
That was a good one.
Speaker 9 (24:27):
I tell Alex was in the background. Alex's supposed to
be my god. After after that, what he did say
that I got on the professional fluffer.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
I fluffed. Rob's so good there, that was great. You
are a professional fluffer. Oh my god, Wait when I
when I do, I start getting fluffed another year already. Unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Dang it, Alex, because you're just fluffing everybody sing some
fluffed this one.
Speaker 6 (24:59):
Umb we got to talk about some rob set up
the topic.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
Yeah, yeah, Rob g please speaking of getting fluffed, if
Bill Belichick had his way, he might be getting fluffed
in the NFL.
Speaker 6 (25:12):
He might know the way he been at. We don't
know these decisions. Some fluffing going on.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Friend of the show, longtime NFL insider Josina Anderson put
out a tweet that sent shockwaves to the football world
earlier on Tuesday, where she said that there are at
least two, if not three teams in the NFL right
now that have a lot of interest in Bill Belichick
(25:39):
to become their next head coach starting in twenty twenty six.
She adds that Bill has a lot of fans amongst
owners in the NFL, so don't be surprised to see
him get some more love during this next hiring cycle.
Speaker 6 (25:54):
That that to me, I believe.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
I do believe they are owners right who maybe don't
quite get the outs, the x's and o's and just
the system and running the program. And I think they
will look at Bill Belichick and simply go, look he
had you know, all the success, Look he's got all
these titles. Is Bill Belichick? And I think that's why
you need a general manager to say, hey, owner, go
ahead and just own, you know, but.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
Make some money for the team. Let me run the team.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
And I don't want to bring him in because number one,
we know Bill Belichick is usually gonna come with power.
I want to have some power. I want to be
in control. I want to give the draft picks. I
want to be in the decisions, some personnel decisions. You
don't want that from this version of Bill Belichick. We've
seen it didn't work in New England. We've seen he
lost his fastball a little bit in New England, and
now we clearly sees what four and seven would you
(26:41):
n c and all the distractions that come along with it,
which are not guaranteed to go away, which is what
he was distraction free for so long. That's not the
case anymore. So I absolutely get why owners they're probably
cool with him just from a bird's eye view, they
only think of him as a winner. But gms know
what it is, and this is why for the most part,
aside from I know Rob always brings up he had
(27:03):
that opportunity with the Hawks. Aside from that, I talk
to people that job.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
I believe I'm that serious, like talk to people, I
believe you when the business said that job was his
and he talked his way out of it.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
And that's my point. I think he would just want
too much. And I think general managers know that. Think
owners just oh, it's Bill, it's Bill's Bill. Oh we
might win because we'll get Bill and we can finally
have a winning situation. GMS are like, nah, that's not
the answer. That's not our guy. And that's why I
think he only had one or two offers previously. And
I think he felt offended by that, because you know,
it's almost after after all out undid this is how
(27:34):
y'all treating me? Right, I've been the man in this
league for so long. This is how I This is
the thanks I get. And I think that's why partly
why I think he believed it took the UNC job
was like, I'll show you element to it, so I'm out.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
We've talked about it before. Dude.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
It's okay to go off in the sunset, Go be
with the grandkids, be with your young lady, go do
your thing, like it's okay to be a consultant.
Speaker 6 (27:59):
But you don't what I gona say. I can see
him getting a job and I'm gonna tell you. I'm
gonna tell you. I canna tell you.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Why. Look at all the bad coaches here, Look look
at all the back they're everywhere.
Speaker 6 (28:13):
Miami, Miami.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
What they got going on there with the gets right?
Speaker 6 (28:20):
The Giant's gonna have an opening. They're gonna have an opening.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
The Raiders, they're gonna replace one old guy with another.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
I mean, like, Rob g it's your worst nightmare.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
I mean it's it's it's they're going to have senior
coffee night every night at a Raiders game.
Speaker 6 (28:39):
Yes, it is unbelievable. So I'm not.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
I don't put it past somebody saying, Hey, that college thing, man,
that ain't really for you. You belong back in the NFL.
He should have never taken that job, you remember, I
thought it was ridiculous. I can't believe. Yeah, we both
for on that.
Speaker 6 (28:59):
Why would he not?
Speaker 3 (29:00):
I try to get the all time record first of all,
and he should have just even if he sat out
the one year and they come back, yeah did TV
and we gain more of a personality and more quote
unquote likable, right because he had some stuff to say,
and then move on from there.
Speaker 6 (29:16):
It was weird.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
I wouldn't hire him because I wouldn't hire Pete Carroll.
I thought, you know, the window I closed on him,
and you see what the disaster is there. And I
think you'd have the same thing with Bill Belichick.
Speaker 6 (29:29):
I agree.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
I just think that we're at a point where there
comes up. You have a shelf life, right. The milk
says up until November twenty fifth, that's today. Don't try
to drink it tomorrow you ever push it. I don't
drink milk, but you never have milk.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
I used to get forced to drink milk when I
was I remember I couldn't wait to turn eight or
nine because our daycare lady, why don't you like milk?
Never like milk? Come to find out, my dad's whole
side of the family. My mom always said, just like
your dad's side, you're you're like she poured orange juice
in her cereals like that was just how she had
other people. Just like you know, you pull a bar,
(30:12):
I just eat it, like, just grab it like a snack.
No cookies, no, no.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
When I when I brought up the peanut, butter and jelly,
that's why milk, That's why you were talking about all
you don't need milk.
Speaker 6 (30:23):
I was long though, but no, but that.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
Was a glass of milk, like just the oh glass
of milk or a cup of milk or bowl of milk.
Honest to goodness, holl of my probably thirty five. That's
crazy years.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
You know what, more for us because if I'm having
cookies or cake or I gotta have milk.
Speaker 6 (30:40):
I have to have milk.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Then she rubs your belly and puts you to sleep.
Just not what I said. I had the crumbs all
in my chest hairs. She rubbed my belly, tot's liver
to that snore.
Speaker 6 (30:52):
Do you not like the taste of milk? Or is
not the worst?
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Like now that I could if I had to drink
a glass like a little Dixie cume out.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
But I grew up with my buddy Billy, who didn't
like the He liked the taste of milk, but didn't
like the smell of milk, so he used to hold
his nose.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
That's how I did it when she didn't forced me,
yeah and drink. That was me when my day care
lady would saying, you have to drink this Ellen. I
don't even know if she's still with us on her
God bless her that if she's not.
Speaker 6 (31:20):
No, she wound up to going on to having a
TV show and being.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Mean to let me tell you about these kids and
one who don't like milk. That's a different Ellen.
Speaker 6 (31:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
I used to plug my nose and she had a
little dixie cup and I had to knock back some milk.
But I don't like milk. Isn't as bad as two things,
the only two things on Earth. I don't like ranch
in sour cream. I hate Ranch. I hate Ranch. Wow,
if you were like, here's five thousand dollars, but you
have to down a bottle of Ranch, I will give
(31:50):
you the five back, Like now, go ahead.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
You would not do that from you? Crazy all right?
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven
nine nine six sixty three sixty. Should NFL teams be
interested in Bill Belichick as their next head coach? We'll
continue that conversation next with you.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
I got one for you, though. I'll drink a dixie
cup of milk if you east some sashimi.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
You're listening to the best of the Odd Couple.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
The Pro Football Hall of Fame, right, not the NFL
Hall of Fame. Pro Football Hall of Fame in Kenohio.
They released the list of their semi finalists. It's weird list.
I don't know how they do their business. You know,
I'm a part of the Baseball of Fame. This is
people are on there for ten years. We saw our
buddy Lomas Brown is on there for the first year,
(00:46):
which is great for lomus about a long career, won
a Super Bowl, went to two Super Bowls, right, lost
one with the Giants and one one with Tampa Bay.
I think is if I'm correct, But rob g some
names on the list, of course quarterback heavy Yeah, I
was gonna throw you guys at bonus. Let's do a
whole segment on Lomas Brown front of the show. Like
(01:06):
he deserved to be first ballot, Yes, or No. Eight
seven seven five first ballot.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Good guys, he's a great football. He's great and because
we like him, we want to give him even more shine.
Now I really want to see him first ballot.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
But then I kept scrolling down the list and I
was like, oh, man, I guess we gotta do this
one instead.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
Because the last time we talked about.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
The Hall of Fame in depth on this show was
on Radio Row and got a little contentious between the
two y'all. And that is because Robin had been saying
for years, anybody who would listen, Eli, man, he is
a first ballot Hall of Famous.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
It's ridiculous what they had, just like what they did
to Lamar this past year.
Speaker 6 (01:47):
Just that's way.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
Worse than he did not get in on the first ballot.
But it's okay.
Speaker 6 (01:53):
Rose. You were in on that too.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
You and I both were like we saw that and
one time you guys got something.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
Now he's eligible on this second year on the ballot.
Speaker 6 (02:01):
Right not to that day, by the way, josh Aden
I said, right.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
The only problem though, I mean, this might not too on,
this might not really impact his standing, but it could
there's a new first time.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
Guy on the ballot, new sheriff in town.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Another guy who eventually will be in the Hall of Fame,
if not first ballot, none other than Drew Brees. So
this year's upcoming class will have three quarterbacks on the list.
You can vote for Philip Rivers. We're not gonna talk
about him for now, Eli Manning, and Drew Brees. Here's
the question I'm gonna ask each of you, if you
can only vote for one, Drew Brees or Eli Manning
(02:39):
getting in the Hall of Fame in twenty twenty six,
who are you voting for?
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Dub Well, you know it's easy for him, so it's
easy for me because we know who is not for me.
Speaker 6 (02:50):
So to answer is Drew Breesy.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
It's easy with Breezy is Drew Brees, And to be
honest with you, is not even close. I absolutely respect
Eli's Super Bowl titles. That's you play the game to win,
so I give him credit for that. You're talking out
of both sides. Gym up, make your case for you.
Speaker 6 (03:05):
It's easy as Drew crazy. Now let me tell you why.
So easy as Drew Brees. Let me tell you why.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Eighty thousand passing yards and it's not even close, not
like all r Well, he's got seventy eighty thousand to
fifty seven thousand. Drew Brees has five hundred and seventy
one touchdowns to Manning's three hundred and sixty six hey
two hundred and five touchdown difference. Drew Brees was known.
He set records for completion percentage sixty eight for his career.
(03:34):
Manning had significantly less than that. Drew Brees won one
hundred and seventy two games versus one hundred and fifteen
losses exactly five hundred. The definition of mid for Eli.
Manning won eighteen to win eighteen. Now he's got a
Super Bowl ring. He beat paid Manny for that, won
MVP of that Super Bowl, and also multiple All Pro selections.
This is a big one for me. He has four
(03:56):
four time MVP runner up, so winning you're one of
them vps did he win? He was four time runner up,
which means he was one of the best quarterbacks for
multiple years for several years, and defenses had to game
plan for it. They came in, we got to shut
down Drew Brees in this offense. Nobody ever had a
game plan for Eli Manny. He was never all pro,
which means his own peers and writers and they never
(04:19):
even consider him one of the best. So again, Eli
was good, there's nothing wrong, but he does have to
be a Hall of Famer, and to me, he's not.
And if I have to pick between those two, it's easy.
As Drew Brees, he absolutely was the driving force of
that team. Five thousand yards a couple of times he
did that. It's clearly he was the cut above. When
you're talking about the two between those two, to me,
(04:40):
that's an easy one. It's Drew Breesy and it's easy.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Drew Brees is the example of stat padding. Just Drew
Brees threw for that many yards. But can you believe
they win seven and nine three years in a row?
Seven and nine Drew Brees on your you're quarterback with
Sean Payton, who supposedly a genius, they went seven and
(05:06):
nine three years in a row. During his career, he
won to won Super Bowl. Very nice, very nice.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Eli Manning, top ten.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Touchdowns, top ten passing yards, and the most important thing,
when the moment was big and.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
Bright, Eli delivered, not once.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Anybody can win once and be lucky without talent anybody. Okay,
he did it twice. And all you guys who walk
around here talk about damn Brady nigguut, damn Brady niggueut,
which I don't subscribe to because I believe that it's
Joe Montana.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
But all you people who say that, kiss who Eli be?
Speaker 3 (06:00):
He beat Tom Brady not once, but twice, including the
undefeated Patriots in the Super Bowl. You remember the T
shirts that went to Guatemala.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
After the game. Yes, it's still wearing them.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
They got him down there, those eighteen to oh Patriots
T shirts that never saw the light of day. You
guys could do all you want with Eli and act
like he did not perform.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
Was he the greatest quarterback? No?
Speaker 3 (06:32):
If he won one Super Bowl lucked into one, you
would have a case.
Speaker 6 (06:37):
You would.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
But you can't walk around talking about Tom Brady and
how great and how great that Patriots team was. Go
back and look at the throws. It isn't just one
lucky helmet throw. It's not that didn't even win the game.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
It is that's what we play.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
You play to win the Super Bowl when you get
that opportunity. He didn't just get in the Super Bowl
and ride somebody in Joseph's coattail. He was the MVP twice.
Look at my fingers one two.
Speaker 6 (07:19):
This look like you order your order at Mige one two.
This is the only.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Time in the world where a number two is not
a bad thing. It's actually a good thing.
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Are you done?
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Just because you talk slow and you can even no
points with Eli's right points.
Speaker 6 (07:41):
I'm trying to No, I'm trying to. Let me tell
you something.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
I'm trying to because a lot of people it's hard
for him to comprehend it. I get it, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 6 (07:49):
Like, No, I don't. Football is complicated. It's not. And
it's just like be the best at for a real
quick rob.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Seriously, I don't if somebody said Eli Manning, I don't
think it's asinine the question him being in.
Speaker 6 (08:02):
I get that, somebody.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I get to understand a couple of Super Bowl rings
MVPs absolutely can get it. But the identity has to
be in. It is crazy to me because again, it's
not no point. He was the best, Like that's the biggest.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
Thing for me round.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
It's a Tom Brady. You have to be the best
Brady thing and to be Hall of Fame like you
gotta be for a period of time. Disagree you were
one of the best. You know, you have to be one,
but you have to be two or three. Like there
are years where Peyton was one or two and Tom
was one or two and other guys.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
But Eli was always like at best maybe fifth or
six to one.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Oh, but the difference is and you know this too,
even when you look at all All Pro for right
all Pro, Tom Brady only had he played twenty four years,
how many first tops three, three or four?
Speaker 6 (08:46):
How come he only has three or four? You know why?
Because that position they only take two people, Right, It's hard.
I don't disagree with that's really hard.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
So when they use that and hold that against him,
I'm saying Tom Brady's your goat and he only been
to three two times.
Speaker 6 (09:01):
I'm serious, but I'm not even talking.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
But I'm using that as a because it's not like
you're going to be first team All Pro quarterback.
Speaker 6 (09:10):
That's a hard thing when you got through thirty two.
I don't disagree with that. Thirty two quarterbacks and only
one guy gets that slot.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
But I'm saying universally, meaning like if I just stopped
the guy on the street, just a football fan, and I said, Hey,
this season'm making two thousand and four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
whatever year that during his career, you would name five
six guys other including a majority of them years, you
would take Philip Rivers over Eli Man.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
No, I would never take Philip Rivers zero.
Speaker 6 (09:36):
Philip Rivers was a much better quarterback than No. He
was not. He never could win a big game.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
I give you that play in the quarterback position, but
it ain't about it's about It's not just the super Bowl.
I'll give you that if this were just who No,
but that that factors in it. Does Philip Rivers do
other than approcreate? I mean other than that? What did
he do?
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Wait?
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Hold on, I think you just had another one right
now as we speaking, Like seventeen kid, that's not he's
trying to get his jersey number eighty seven calls on
ninety nine Drew Breesy.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Rob g Lank if it had some some thoughts and conversations,
and also we talked about a little bit last week
of people are wondering what he's gonna do with all
these offers that are out there since he's got All
Miss looking good this season.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
The college football playoff rankings have just been released here
in the last minute or so, and if the season
ended today, All Miss and the running Rebels and there
to be determined head coach Lane Kiffin would be in
the playoff. They're currently ranked number six in the latest rankings.
The problem, though, as you alluded to, is we don't
know if he's long for the job. There was reports
(11:27):
as recently his last week that said Hey, we need
an answer about whether or not you're gonna stay in
Ole Miss or you're gonna go to LSU before the
egg Bowl the egg bowls on Saturday coming up, and
so far nothing. In fact, Lane Kiffen was asked hypothetically like, hey,
at this current rate, if you guys went out like
you're supposed to, like you're expected to, you're gonna be
(11:47):
in the playoff and more than likely would be hosting
a playoff game on campus in Oxford. Lane Kiffin was
asked about and here's what he said, quote that would
be the the biggest sporting event in the history of
the state of Mississippi. That's a pretty big statement because
somebody else said and he confirmed it. Guys, if you're
(12:09):
Lane Kiffin, would you rather stay at Old Miss? You're
in the playoffs? Maybe you win one, maybe during your
fifteen to twenty year there run or do you take
the money? Do you run the LSU. More likely you
win one at LSU before you win it Old Miss.
But if you do, you're just one of the next
line of guys who have wanted LSU. Would you rather
(12:32):
be the big dog at Old Miss or the next
dog at LSU?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
It's easy for me big dog at Old Miss. And
the reason why rob G is because college football is
a little different. College football, you can become bigger than
the team or a player like you are the guy.
We talk about Nick Saban, you talk about Bo Sham Beckler,
and you talk about Urban Meyer like you become the thing.
Whereas if you're looking at the NBA, we got games
(12:56):
on in our face. You know it's the Luca led
Lakers or the Lebron this or the Steph Curry. Coaches
in football become the thing. In fact, in some cases,
and especially in the state like Mississippi, you can be
the biggest person in the entire state, the highest paid official,
and you could just become godlike in college football.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
And if you were going to bring a title to
Old Miss.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
We talked about Eli Manning last year, one of the
best players in their history. His dad was as well.
They've had a handful of good players throughout the years.
If you can bring a title to Old Miss, beat
some of these SEC other SEC teams, and you never know,
especially with current day and a trug and Rod where
you have nil money, you got transfer port which allows
(13:39):
you to get players much quicker you can become a
powerhouse much easier now than you could have in years past.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
And you can pus.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Become a powerhouse with the nil now like who aren't
the blue bloods that who always win.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
I won't say powerhouse yet because we got to finish it.
But a great example is Indiana, like out the blue
Indiana last, That's what I said, but I'm saying now
Indiana can.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
I'm gonna wait for them to win a national champions
shipre and and the turnaround has been.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Vanderbilt as well, like you can you can turn programs
around much quicker. Oh miss, f agree with that. Oh,
I don't know if you can win. And that's why
I said, we'll see. And he is in an instance
where he can win it. A couple rom a couple
cook points. LSU, you already have some coaches who have
run it. I just mentioned Nick Saban being one. Nick
Saban has a tied to your smiles Miles has one
(14:25):
and oh seven o three for Nick Saban and ed
Orgeron in twenty nineteen. So LSU has an expectation and
they one of those schools we feel like we should
be competing for titles. Oh miss, They're already having a
great season. Let alone you mess round, get the college
football playoffs. Let alone you get to the you know,
the finals, and that's necessarily win one. So to me,
I think you can take a team with lower expectations
(14:47):
and all of a sudden you become a powerhouse, mess around,
win one or two, and you become legends forever there
and and that to me, that's a better thing that
takes nothing and make it something and make it really good,
especially in this era where you can do so and
compete similar kind of Clemson. Clemson has had this run
over the last ten twelve years or so where they
kind of came out the blue and then our expectation
became that Clemson should be winning national titles or at
(15:10):
least competing for because they've been able to turn that
thing around. Uh Sweeney and dable Sweeney and create a powerhouse.
You got a chance to do that, old miss that
would be a huge story, especially for your career where
Lane Kiffin has always kind of stumbled up somehow. Most
people get a chance or two. He's had multiple chances
at his dad too. Absolutely, absolutely, his dad is legendary
(15:33):
defensive coach.
Speaker 6 (15:34):
Exactly, and that's how he got out. So I just
for me as old miss.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
I get the lure of an LSU or some other places,
but I want to stay a old miss, build something
to build my name.
Speaker 6 (15:43):
Who's the greatest football coach? No period? Nick Saban? Where's he?
Where's he won? LSU? Where else? Alabama?
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Okay, so he won a multiple schools that already have
you know, like had that pedigle that.
Speaker 6 (15:58):
That's my point is that it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
I mean, it sounds like nice fairy tale story and
ole miss and all that. You're not going to No
one's gonna discount you if you go to LSU or
Nick Saban going to don't go to Alabama. Bear Bryant
coach there. Oh my, You'll never be able to get
your own legacy there because coach Bear Bryant coach at Alabama.
(16:23):
Guess what, ain't nobody thinking about coach Bear Bryant. Yogi
the Bear they're thinking about, but not coach Bear Bryant.
Speaker 6 (16:32):
I'm just but Nick had to go crazy.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
My point, well, my point is somebody would Jackson, somebody
would have said to him, don't go there.
Speaker 6 (16:43):
You can't carve out your own legacy.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
That's all would you admit that, and he wound up
carving out his own legacy and building What if he
goes to LSU and wins three in a row, none
of those other coaches you mentioned one three in a row.
Speaker 6 (16:57):
That's how you develop a legacy.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
And you can go and you don't have to stay
at Old Miss that hasn't won and ain't gonna win,
and the chances are harder. I could go to LSU
and and win three in a row and change it.
And I'm just saying that that's how I look at it.
I don't look at it that way. I couldn't make
your own legacy.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
I don't disagree with that, and that's a good point,
but I think for me specifically, if I'm laying Kiffin,
you've already built something at Old Miss. I don't have
I don't have to like I don't have to leave.
I'm getting the great players, I'm getting big names. I've
created a program where guys want to come here. You
got in IL money, and now you ain't gonna have
LSU in IL money. We know that, but you got
to transporportal. You're building something, and not only just from
(17:37):
the program at uh Oh Miss. You're building something for yourself, right,
because I mentioned he's failed a lot of places and
has done and he talked about it, Old Misses. He said,
I'm using his words. Old miss has meant more to
me than I've meant to them because where he was
coming from, his personal life kind of you know, he
was able to get his life back together, get back
on track and win there. Uh plus me and you
(17:57):
talked about this a few weeks ago. The way that
governor the governor be meddling down there in LSU. Hold up,
I might need the governor to leave me alone, so
old Miss I might have to stay over here because
the governor and governor of Louisiana be jumping around in
Governor governor be jumping in the business a little bit
too much. But I listen, I gotta get the lure
of the you know, a couple of big schools, LSU
(18:18):
being one of them, and some other schools that have
been mentioned. I get the bigger a lure the pool there.
But I think he's creating some of the old miss
and I think he wants to that that to be
my thing. Where they saved me personally, I've saved them.
I'm the sessional standpoint, you could go you go to
l s U and do your thing. It's possible.
Speaker 6 (18:35):
People.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
People are gonna rave about, Oh my god, he finally
got to the right program.
Speaker 6 (18:40):
And not only did he win one, Nick Saban only
won one.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
There guess what, he ran off three championships in the
row or back to back or whatever. And that's how
you make your name and that's how you develop. I
just what if you went three in a row at
old Miss, Rob what's the chance of that? What's the
row at LSU better than Old Miss?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
I don't know if it is twenty twenty five of
you to get this. Ten years ago, I've been with you.
But now man again. You can get players, you can trend,
but I don't want to stick around.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
I just don't see anybody winning yet. And what when
they break through? When Indiana wins the national championship, I'll
buy in. Well, listen, I I'm just sure. But I'm
saying because this is new, like we're in our year
for everybody the twenty eight and a half point right now,
they don't win a big game, then I'm gonna have
to take a look back and go away. Really well,
(19:28):
I wouldn't because I would be saying, this is still
like a junior year if you're going high school of
the NIL, meaning this is still coming, this is still happening,
like this isn't ten years, twenty years and then the
NIL and transport is very new considering one hundred years.
And you can't do this, you can't do that, you
can't play players, you can't transfer until this start.
Speaker 6 (19:45):
This is a wild, wild West now and it's just
now really opening up. So has he has it helped
Indiana or not?
Speaker 5 (19:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:52):
So that was perposally just a black basketball. But if
it has, then then they should be able to win.
That's what I'm saying. There's no reason why they can't
win this year. It should be right.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
I mean, you know, I'm sure they would want to
say next year as we get a couple more players,
because they're you know, they're just getting guys in their system.
Whereas other schools in Alabama, Georgia, they've had guys, they
know what their system is, they know their flow.
Speaker 6 (20:13):
This is only their coaches.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (20:15):
But third year, so give or take all it takes
is won. It doesn't matter how many years you you
gotta build a program.
Speaker 5 (20:20):
You know that.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
You can't win the first year. You gotta build a program.
Football you can do that.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
You better off doing that in basketball because if you
just get a guy that the start a guy, you
can win college football if your dudes ain't big as mine,
and if your dudes ain't in fact, that's it, you
know what I mean. Like college basketball, you can be
we have a system. We're Princeton. We do this cut
back door cuts me college football because there's too many guys.
It's twenty two. It's my eleven on offense, my eleven
(20:48):
on defenses. It's too much. That's why you just don't see,
you know, random teams get blown out, Like if they
had a March madness in college football, you would never
see Butler get a shot. Butler ain't beating Georgia and
you know that kind of an nf football version of that.

I'ma scam people like the amount of energy you put
into scamming. I'm just talking to you can have got
a job and had benefits.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
But that's the other thing that I don't I don't understand,
like is is not only are they thieves, but didn't
when the package just explode the audacity Like they look
like what did you do?
Speaker 2 (22:05):
What?
Speaker 6 (22:06):
Like why would you do this to me?
Speaker 5 (22:07):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Rob, g am I wrong? They look like like they're pissed. Yeah,
you just stole my packing.
Speaker 5 (22:14):
No, you're so right.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
You can't turn left from It's it's amazing. Yeah, they're
getting brazen too. It's not like over night two am
you happy to take them out? They two pm, mid
middle of the day.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
But it doesn't stop them, Like they know these videos
around or whatever, they still go up there because they
don't think it's gonna be in there.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
It won't be me.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
Oh yeah, I saw that on YouTube that ain't gonna
and it explodes, and they just I love when they
fall off the porch or theick face or car whatever.
I'm just like wow and they just they just look
like my ear and that blew my ears out.
Speaker 6 (22:47):
Stop stealing.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
By the way, while you talking about they don't act
like you wasn't looking at a bunch of videos or
people fall and hurting themselves, the good people, normal people,
not thieves. Which ones the videos you were watching? People
just falling all over the place, that's what you're wanting. No, No,
that was that was the the package.
Speaker 6 (23:00):
The packages.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
Well, speaking of scammeras ro bet you wings dot com.
What's going on with that? I say, you know, get
Rob good. We just stared at the camera for a second.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
I'll be right back.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
No one's got to say something that.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
I'm hurting. It's Alex dying in the background as what
took me out?
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Oh my gosh, Robbie Rogie wanted to Yeah, that was
his official he was.
Speaker 6 (23:38):
He was ready to Joel Rob I've never not gave
a Christmas gift.

He just took your your Ralph Lawing shirt that he's
found at Ross's back. It is taken back. You just
lost your your daughter's gifts, taking back everything.
Speaker 4 (23:54):
By the way, I did find the olboat the ones

in the joy the other day.
Speaker 6 (24:00):
What means doesn't finish.
Speaker 5 (24:01):
She's tiny. She's still a little tiny.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
Yeah, because that's for twelve months.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
Yeah, yeah, I'm excited for her to wear was she
she's one, right, just one?
Speaker 6 (24:10):
Yeah, but she's still It's crazy. That's been a year already.
That is crazy.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
I'll send you the picture when she finally fits in it.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Okay, Now he's trying to say, always nice to you, Rob.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
That was like Alex was.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
Like, you just say that joke, Robbie, say the joke.
That was a good one.
Speaker 9 (24:27):
I tell Alex was in the background. Alex's supposed to
be my god. After after that, what he did say
that I got on the professional fluffer.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
I fluffed. Rob's so good there, that was great. You
are a professional fluffer. Oh my god, Wait when I
when I do, I start getting fluffed another year already. Unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Dang it, Alex, because you're just fluffing everybody sing some
fluffed this one.
Speaker 6 (24:59):
Umb we got to talk about some rob set up
the topic.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
Yeah, yeah, Rob g please speaking of getting fluffed, if
Bill Belichick had his way, he might be getting fluffed
in the NFL.
Speaker 6 (25:12):
He might know the way he been at. We don't
know these decisions. Some fluffing going on.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Friend of the show, longtime NFL insider Josina Anderson put
out a tweet that sent shockwaves to the football world
earlier on Tuesday, where she said that there are at
least two, if not three teams in the NFL right
now that have a lot of interest in Bill Belichick
(25:39):
to become their next head coach starting in twenty twenty six.
She adds that Bill has a lot of fans amongst
owners in the NFL, so don't be surprised to see
him get some more love during this next hiring cycle.
Speaker 6 (25:54):
That that to me, I believe.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
I do believe they are owners right who maybe don't
quite get the outs, the x's and o's and just
the system and running the program. And I think they
will look at Bill Belichick and simply go, look he
had you know, all the success, Look he's got all
these titles. Is Bill Belichick? And I think that's why
you need a general manager to say, hey, owner, go
ahead and just own, you know, but.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
Make some money for the team. Let me run the team.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
And I don't want to bring him in because number one,
we know Bill Belichick is usually gonna come with power.
I want to have some power. I want to be
in control. I want to give the draft picks. I
want to be in the decisions, some personnel decisions. You
don't want that from this version of Bill Belichick. We've
seen it didn't work in New England. We've seen he
lost his fastball a little bit in New England, and
now we clearly sees what four and seven would you
(26:41):
n c and all the distractions that come along with it,
which are not guaranteed to go away, which is what
he was distraction free for so long. That's not the
case anymore. So I absolutely get why owners they're probably
cool with him just from a bird's eye view, they
only think of him as a winner. But gms know
what it is, and this is why for the most part,
aside from I know Rob always brings up he had
(27:03):
that opportunity with the Hawks. Aside from that, I talk
to people that job.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
I believe I'm that serious, like talk to people, I
believe you when the business said that job was his
and he talked his way out of it.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
And that's my point. I think he would just want
too much. And I think general managers know that. Think
owners just oh, it's Bill, it's Bill's Bill. Oh we
might win because we'll get Bill and we can finally
have a winning situation. GMS are like, nah, that's not
the answer. That's not our guy. And that's why I
think he only had one or two offers previously. And
I think he felt offended by that, because you know,
it's almost after after all out undid this is how
(27:34):
y'all treating me? Right, I've been the man in this
league for so long. This is how I This is
the thanks I get. And I think that's why partly
why I think he believed it took the UNC job
was like, I'll show you element to it, so I'm out.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
We've talked about it before. Dude.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
It's okay to go off in the sunset, Go be
with the grandkids, be with your young lady, go do
your thing, like it's okay to be a consultant.
Speaker 6 (27:59):
But you don't what I gona say. I can see
him getting a job and I'm gonna tell you. I'm
gonna tell you. I canna tell you.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Why. Look at all the bad coaches here, Look look
at all the back they're everywhere.
Speaker 6 (28:13):
Miami, Miami.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
What they got going on there with the gets right?
Speaker 6 (28:20):
The Giant's gonna have an opening. They're gonna have an opening.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
The Raiders, they're gonna replace one old guy with another.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
I mean, like, Rob g it's your worst nightmare.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
I mean it's it's it's they're going to have senior
coffee night every night at a Raiders game.
Speaker 6 (28:39):
Yes, it is unbelievable. So I'm not.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
I don't put it past somebody saying, Hey, that college thing, man,
that ain't really for you. You belong back in the NFL.
He should have never taken that job, you remember, I
thought it was ridiculous. I can't believe. Yeah, we both
for on that.
Speaker 6 (28:59):
Why would he not?
Speaker 3 (29:00):
I try to get the all time record first of all,
and he should have just even if he sat out
the one year and they come back, yeah did TV
and we gain more of a personality and more quote
unquote likable, right because he had some stuff to say,
and then move on from there.
Speaker 6 (29:16):
It was weird.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
I wouldn't hire him because I wouldn't hire Pete Carroll.
I thought, you know, the window I closed on him,
and you see what the disaster is there. And I
think you'd have the same thing with Bill Belichick.
Speaker 6 (29:29):
I agree.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
I just think that we're at a point where there
comes up. You have a shelf life, right. The milk
says up until November twenty fifth, that's today. Don't try
to drink it tomorrow you ever push it. I don't
drink milk, but you never have milk.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
I used to get forced to drink milk when I
was I remember I couldn't wait to turn eight or
nine because our daycare lady, why don't you like milk?
Never like milk? Come to find out, my dad's whole
side of the family. My mom always said, just like
your dad's side, you're you're like she poured orange juice
in her cereals like that was just how she had
other people. Just like you know, you pull a bar,
(30:12):
I just eat it, like, just grab it like a snack.
No cookies, no, no.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
When I when I brought up the peanut, butter and jelly,
that's why milk, That's why you were talking about all
you don't need milk.
Speaker 6 (30:23):
I was long though, but no, but that.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
Was a glass of milk, like just the oh glass
of milk or a cup of milk or bowl of milk.
Honest to goodness, holl of my probably thirty five. That's
crazy years.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
You know what, more for us because if I'm having
cookies or cake or I gotta have milk.
Speaker 6 (30:40):
I have to have milk.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Then she rubs your belly and puts you to sleep.
Just not what I said. I had the crumbs all
in my chest hairs. She rubbed my belly, tot's liver
to that snore.
Speaker 6 (30:52):
Do you not like the taste of milk? Or is
not the worst?
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Like now that I could if I had to drink
a glass like a little Dixie cume out.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
But I grew up with my buddy Billy, who didn't
like the He liked the taste of milk, but didn't
like the smell of milk, so he used to hold
his nose.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
That's how I did it when she didn't forced me,
yeah and drink. That was me when my day care
lady would saying, you have to drink this Ellen. I
don't even know if she's still with us on her
God bless her that if she's not.
Speaker 6 (31:20):
No, she wound up to going on to having a
TV show and being.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Mean to let me tell you about these kids and
one who don't like milk. That's a different Ellen.
Speaker 6 (31:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
I used to plug my nose and she had a
little dixie cup and I had to knock back some milk.
But I don't like milk. Isn't as bad as two things,
the only two things on Earth. I don't like ranch
in sour cream. I hate Ranch. I hate Ranch. Wow,
if you were like, here's five thousand dollars, but you
have to down a bottle of Ranch, I will give
(31:50):
you the five back, Like now, go ahead.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
You would not do that from you? Crazy all right?
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven
nine nine six sixty three sixty. Should NFL teams be
interested in Bill Belichick as their next head coach? We'll
continue that conversation next with you.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
I got one for you, though. I'll drink a dixie
cup of milk if you east some sashimi.
