three hundred feet across.
Speaker 1 (04:00):

Weird to have somebody sitting next to me in their
feet touch the ground, It's amazing, uh, Manzi, but yeah,

Speaker 2 (05:03):
And at least when you know I'm introducing and we're
all always going to say her.
Speaker 7 (05:07):
Name properly right now, Mancy Bologna, is what exactly you know?
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Sometimes Kelvin, you know he's on television flubbing names, making
money is unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Yeah, Monty's already on the YouTube page just looking for
mentions of herself.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Is that right? Manzi? You know what? Listen, I got
called down. So now I'm never going on YouTube again.
Never again.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
I've never I got called out on the show like
a few weeks like last weeks.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
I'm never going on again.
Speaker 8 (05:31):
You're so good, you're good to make a fake account.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
The legitimate comment just came in Bri and Mancy on
the same show.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
All casts. I used to pray for afternoons like this.
Speaker 8 (05:40):
See we're still praying for them for consisting afternoon drive
like this.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Can you wait five years? Maybe? Maybe? I mean, I mean,
I mean take you out before that. Oh wow, just
kidding around.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I'm just getting yes and of course, Uh Saga is
our social media Google.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Best dropping them.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
My man Saga put out a video approved of performance
video you saw, did you see Alix or you didn't
see it?
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Yeah, he did a great job. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
It probably could have been like an hour long, but
that doesn't work on social because it was all of
my correct NFL picks this year, Rob G, even you
the most. He's my harshest critic, rob G. He is
you just got to give it up.
Speaker 6 (06:26):
That's why I'm so frustrated, is because you are having
like the season of a lifetime, like this is what
was it the year that Michael Jordan was like Defensive
Player of the Year and had all those things, uh,
scoring title and the NBA Like a relax, say, some
of the rest.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Of us, you've won enough.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
You've been in like four Hall of Fames and you've
gotten seven of the your hottest takes correct already, it's
gonna be all bad at the place.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
All right, Hey, let's go.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
We got a lot to get to and again we
want to hear from you on this TV theme. So
on Thursday eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, Uh,
let's go here, Rob G for the game thirty minutes
from now exactly the semifinals, right, sir, We got ole
Miss in Miami, so we're all looking forward to that.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
But uh, people still calling out Lane.
Speaker 6 (07:13):
Kiffn Yes, sir, now Lane Kiffin leading into these playoffs.
You know he left for LSU on the eve, on
the doorstep of the playoff. Little did we know that
ole Miss would win two playoff games get to this point.
Now they're playing in the semi final. And one of
the big stories coming into it was we talked about
on the show. Lane Kiffin wanted to finish out the
(07:35):
season with ole Miss for Gwenn LSU.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
He asked them.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
During their meetings and they said, no, I know I'm leaving,
but I want to finish what I started with these guys.
Let me coach out the rest of the season. They said, no,
hell no, you cannot do it. But he graciously still
allowed several of his assistants to coach to the rest
of the wall.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
He could have said no, could have said leaving, and
why why were they okay with them?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Even though they.
Speaker 6 (07:58):
Leads exactly well Flash Goward to tonight And even though
before the playoffs started, Kiffing allowed five of his assistants
to coach through the rest of the way. Only two
are left on the staff for ole Miss tonight. That
would be offensive coordinator Charlie Wise junior running backs coach
Kevin Smith. And there's one former college football coach, one
(08:18):
Jimbo Fisher, who really hated that decision.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Take a listen. It's selfish, that's what it is. It's stupid.
Speaker 9 (08:25):
And because here's why I say that, he wanted to
coach and thought he didn't get his way. So everybody
get on the plane with me. You don't have a job,
all right, And he makes them all go. Then he
gets down there and takes a pr hit because it
looks bad that you really don't care about the kids.
Then he says, okay, you can go back. But here's
where he screwed up.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
He thought they were gonna lose.
Speaker 9 (08:43):
He thought they were gonna lose a Georgia. The portal
thing was all over with, and it was gonna.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Be all over with. He said, oh, I'll look like
a hero.
Speaker 9 (08:49):
Now he's got an egg going in his face because
the real lane came back out, you know what I'm saying.
And he's and if those guys were allowed to coach
a first game. They should be allowed to coach be
four because those guys are doing those kids are doing
something that you get one time in your life to
air or do that team and those guys one time.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
And as a coach, let's not know, I've left a job.
I'll get that.
Speaker 9 (09:06):
But if you took them on, took them off, said
they're never coming back, that's fine. You set the rules
of the game. You don't change the rules in the
middle of the game. And as a coach, it's hurting
the kids and it pisses me off.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
What a hypocrite? Did you hear?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
A hypocrite there? I left the job. Yeah, you did
a couple times. A couple times. You fraud you phony.
You guys kill me your chance to dump on Lane Kiffin.
Guess what, Rob Gee, he was there for six years.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
He built this team.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
It's not his fault that the college football Tom Clark
and schedule is a bad one. He had no choice
the way it's set up. He's not the first guy
to do that. And he offered to stay, let me
finish the season out. The school got their pennies in
a bunch after he finally.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Put together a team. Rob g to give them a chance.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
If you don't want anything to do with Lane Kiffin,
why are you using his assistance or leaving with him.
They're not coming back. It doesn't even make any sense.
And then you're trying to make him out the bad guy.
I hope Old Miss loses tonight. I hope they lose.
And then I want to hear what they gotta say. Oh,
(10:25):
ain't no, no, he went and took a better job.
He didn't take an equal job, Rob g or you
know where. He just kind of made a lateral move.
LSU has way more resources and gives them a real
opportunity to win a national championship. This is a beautiful story,
but it ain't Lane Kiffin. He didn't make the rules
(10:46):
and make the timetable and offered to stay.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
The school. They wanted to be big and bad.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
If you were so big and bad, you would say
take your assistance too, But they even knew they couldn't
do that, So they're using the guy that he hired.
He helped to coach and coach up and develop, and
now they want to act like he's the bad guy.
Speaker 6 (11:06):
I hope you'll lose Old Miss. Spot on, Rob, you're
so right, you can't turn the left. I know that's
disappointed to the odd mob. They want me to come
out of your neck all rest of don't say that, Alex.
They want me to go at you all afternoon. And
it's like, look, there are certain things, unfortunately we're going
to agree with, and in this case, you are one
thousand percent correct. And even going back to this whole
thing about how Jimbo Fisher saying, hey, well, why would
(11:28):
you let him coach one game and out the other game?
And it's like, bro, if you break up with your
wife and you need a place to crash, hey, come
crashing my place. No big deal. That does not mean indefinitely. Why,
it does not mean you can stay there forever. While
you would figure it out with your lady friend, it's
not gonna do that way. Lane Kiffin did you a
favor and said, hey, you're not gonna let me coach.
(11:51):
I disagree with I think he's a dumb decision, but
I respect your decision. You want to use some of
my assistants so that you have some kind of well, first,
let them stay so that they could stay in the playoff, right,
because they thought if they all left they might drop
out of the rings completely. He says, I'll let you
have them so you have some kind of synergy into
this postseason. I think it'll give you the best chance
to win. That was a month ago.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Now right.
Speaker 6 (12:12):
You know what's happened in a month in the world
of college football. We talked about it yesterday. You had
four thousand players jump into the portal.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Thank you.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
You had a player yesterday at you Dub that we
talked about signed an nil deal, try to back out
of it, enter the transfer portal.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Now it's being blocked by Washington.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Unfortunately for ole Miss, for LSU, for every college football
program in the country.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
The way the calendar.
Speaker 6 (12:36):
Is right now, it behooves Lane Kiffin to have his
staffers with him so that he doesn't lose seventy five
percent of his roster that portal, so that he could
get ahead start on finding his next quarterback, which he
allowed on the stay exactly. And to be quite honest
with you, their current quarterback, Chambliss is a guy.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
He wants to bring out you, or try to. You
don't think that he.
Speaker 6 (12:59):
Would be and his best interests say, you know what,
I really want that kid. They're not letting him out
Charlie watching your come back over here because we didn't
find a different quarterback. They're not letting us get the
one that we want. Of course, it would help him
do that, but instead they're making him out to be
this villain for wanting to put his future in front
(13:20):
of what happened in the past. And that's not fair
to anybody. If you weren't at another company and you leave,
do they expect you to be like, Hey, I know
that you left us, but you'll really be doing us
a favorite you did X, Y and Z. No, that's irresponsible.
That's not fair to expect a new employee to do that.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
No, and they make it like he made the rules.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
The Jimbo Fisher interviews terrible to me because when he
said that, where's the host to jump in and say, yeah,
you did leave your kids on a lerchs.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Didn't you?
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Why are you now ripping Lane Kiffin? Didn't you do
the same thing? Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (13:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:57):
The reason that it was okay with you is because
your team wasn't going to the or you were. Your
team wasn't good enough, you know, but you still walked
out on your.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Kids for a new deal.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Come on Man, They've all done it, Rob Gen to
make Lane Kiffin. If you don't like lang Kiffin, that's fine,
and I get it. He comes with some baggage from
other places. But am I wrong on the h that's fine?
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Six years of seven get there.
Speaker 6 (14:18):
You can absolutely not like Lane Kiffin as a person,
and I totally He's done some some scumbag type of
stuff throughout his ten year as as a coach, both
at the pro level and in the college level. But
in this instance, to try to make it out like
he's the bad guy is off base.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
No doubt, all right?
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven, seven, nine,
nine six sixty three sixteen go ahead, read the teens.
Speaker 6 (14:41):

Jimbo Fisher being a hypocrite in the situation? Eight seven

Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox Sean from Sacramento.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Of course, he had to jump in, what's.
Speaker 10 (17:35):
Up, yeah, mother me primo for from an author Madre.
Speaker 11 (17:43):
Rather, bro, we love it and my brother's behind the board. Man,
I couldn't disagree with rhymes anymore. Man, Wow, same saying
Lane Kippin is rehabbing his past my ditching yet another
team to help him rebuild him. So come on, man,
he ditched the Vault just to get fired by USC.
(18:04):
He went to Florida Atlantic, built himself up just to
ditch them to.
Speaker 12 (18:07):
Get back to Old Myth and another premiere d one situation.
And you would think making the playoffs and putting yourself
in a position to actually win his ship was good enough.
But just like every other self low than self hating
person in this world, he ditched them for greener pastors.
I hope he never wins the championship. I hope Old
Miss pulls off the impossible and shows him that being
(18:29):
faithful and doing what you're supposed to do, a biding
by a contract actually pays off at the end of
the day.
Speaker 11 (18:34):
Y'all to our way out of order with this man,
all right, thank you.
Speaker 6 (18:38):
What's funny is Rob just said he don't want him
to win either. You don't want Old Miss to win,
You want winn he's hoping for it. Ever want to lose.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Tony in DC, you're on the odd couple of Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
What's up Tony?
Speaker 10 (18:50):
Oh, it's rob g. That jacket is fire, My boy,
you need to put that up for auction.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
My god.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Everybody says that that's his favorite jacket.
Speaker 10 (19:00):
Yes, but look, there's a capitalist society, and you spend
your life getting to the biggest boosters. The biggest boosters
are in the SEC conference. Old miss thought they were
Bentley until real Bentley pulled up, and now they realize
you're a crash of three hundred. Hey, look, he's got
(19:21):
to win and hear a LSU because he's got the
biggest boosters. Are no more excuses for him. If he
doesn't win here at l s U within three to.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Five years or three years, it's.
Speaker 10 (19:29):
A rap for him. There's no more there's no more
upper movements. It's all latter after this.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
No doubt.
Speaker 6 (19:34):
That's thank you to He could absolutely be saying us
up to fail in LSU, But in this instance, there's
nothing wrong with what he did or what is currently doing.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
I'm cool with the call.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
In the Bay Area, you're on the YDD couple Fox
Sports Radio. What's up, call, Fellas, how are you listener,
and I'm good, how you guys doing great? Longtime listener, And.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
And I've caught a few times Pa would be with
Lane kissing right. If he was stayed, if they allowed
him to stay and coach throughout the college football playoffs,
then who would have been to have to meet all
these kids in the portable in the portal. Who would
have been there to look for that new quarterback?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Exactly? Nobody? No body. That's that's the problem is.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
So it comes to my point is if he would
have stayed at Old mister coach throughout the playoff and
win a national championship, nobody would have been there. He
wouldn't have been there to meet these.
Speaker 10 (20:32):
People in the portal.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
He wouldn't have been looking for a new quarterback because
he should have been concentrated on winning that national championship
at Old Miss correct.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Spot on.
Speaker 6 (20:39):
And then that's why Jimbo Fisher when he calls him
selfish in this instance, he was the opposite of selfish
because to your point, he founded to stay.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
And if he would.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Selfish you to say, give me my coach exactly going
to LSU, we.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Wanted to stay.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
If he wins the national judge hip with Old Miss
to the callers point he misses out on four thousand
eligible tracks.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
First roulsu Eric in Austin, Texas. You're on the couple
of Fox Sports Radio. What's up e?
Speaker 13 (21:07):
What a Rob Rober?
Speaker 3 (21:08):
How you gotta do it?
Speaker 13 (21:09):
Man?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
What up doing great? How are you okay?
Speaker 3 (21:12):
I'm good.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
I'm good.
Speaker 13 (21:13):
I don't know if you remember, but I called it
in last week when we talked about this before. Y'all
are spot on it. And Sean the first caller, Sean
Sacramento in his feelings, we're not talking about Lane from
his past. We're not talking about his fast and addresses.
You cannot like Lane and still acknowledge that he's not
wrong in the situation. If he would have stayed it
Old Miss and coached out the whole playoff run, nobody.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Will be mad here.
Speaker 13 (21:34):
And the fact that he let his coordinator stay yep,
I don't understand this.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
And again Lane wanted to.
Speaker 13 (21:40):
Say, oh, Miss Dada celt away and they deserve to
fill away. They gets out doing a feel about it.
But he wanted to say if he would have stayed,
there would have been issues.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah, I agree, I just I just can't in this
case I don't think Lane Kiffin's a bad guy.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
Can we squeeze one more?
Speaker 6 (21:56):
No?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Okay, all right, that's why we got to get it.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
Yes, we got college kids with Mark Gunnell. We'll get
into some big ten football action with him.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
But first, weren't an odd couple.
Speaker 8 (22:09):
You didn't, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
You had yours on. So now I wanted to be
part of the fun. I wanted to be part of
the fun.
Speaker 8 (22:14):
So thank you. Because it's very windy today out here
in southern California.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
All right, guys, let me.
Speaker 8 (22:21):
Tell you what's going on today, aside from the college
football playoff semi final. It's about to start in what
we've got about a couple of minutes. Maybe if that
ten seed Miami versus sixteed, Oh Miss. This is a
festable semi final college football playoff. Let's go. But today
in the NFL, the Dolphins fired head coach Mike McDaniel
after four seasons. But don't worry, the Lines have already
(22:42):
reached out to McDaniel about their offensive coordinator position.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
NFL media is reporting.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
That the Titans are going to interview former Packers and
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy for their head coaching job Ravens.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
He is still around. He is still around.
Speaker 8 (22:57):
Ravens have requested a head coach interview with forty nine
Ers defensive coordinator Robert Salah. He has had, He has
had interview requests from a few people, though already in Atlanta, Arizona.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Some guys coordinators than they all had coaches. You're serious, Yeah,
I agree with that.
Speaker 6 (23:11):
I was so bad with the Jets, Like Rob's a
better writer than he is a radio hotel.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Wow. What Oh, that's what I heard after forty years?
Do you hear that? That's what I heard? I knew that.
I knew that.
Speaker 8 (23:26):
Former Commander's offensive coordinator Cliff Kingsbury has received a head
coach interview requests from the Titans and the Ravens as well.
When it comes to football this weekend, the Rams have
ruled out guard Kevin Dotson for Saturday's game at Carolina
because of his ankle injury. But good news because wide
receiver Davante Adams is not on their final injury report.
The Bears have ruled or excuse me, the Bears have
(23:47):
ruled out cornerback or defensive backs CJ. Gardner Johnson due
to a concussion for Saturday's game, but wide receivers Roma
Dude say DJ Moore, they're off the injury report.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
They are good to go.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Also, apparently in baseball, guys are gonna meet with Boba
Shit on Monday. They're trying to spice things up in Philadelphia.
When it comes to the NBA, the Pacers are up
on the Hornets right now, twenty nine to twenty two.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
It's late in the first quarter.
Speaker 8 (24:10):
Back to you guys, Thanks BONSI just yeah, there we go.
Speaker 6 (24:14):
It is The Odd Couple Fox Sports Radio, Rob Parker,
Kelvin Washington.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Rob you sitting in for k dub.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Odd Couple
with Rob Parker and Kelvin Washington weekdays at seven pm
Eastern four pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 6 (24:31):
Well, you know we're brought to you by Leave Leave
Us here to help you keep your New Year's resolutions
on trapping to the Leave. I believe it, Rob, I
mean you walk six feet of your limping with twelve
hours of body pain relief per dose ALI keeps you
moving with long lasting body pain relief so you can

and right now it's time for college kids.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
It's time for the college kids here on the odd
Come look at this week's college football through the eyes
of the young, inexperience.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
No ruck in event, they swear they know college ball.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
Take the yeah right, fundamentals are gonna show up. Are
there takes? Sophomoric graduation worth it? Robin Calvin will aside,
bring them on.
Speaker 14 (25:16):
Now we all know that Rob Parker is an illustrious
forty years in the industry in every single Hall of
fame that's probably been here since Oreos and Cheerios. But
now Rob Parker's extending his reach to not only his mentorship,
but bringing in some people who we are going to
one day called experts to host something we'd call college
kids in no other than the great Mark Gunnals himself.
(25:36):
Mark say what up to the crew?
Speaker 5 (25:38):
Hey, how you gotta do it?
Speaker 6 (25:39):
What?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Mark? What an intro? Very nice, Alex, Thank you so
much talent.
Speaker 14 (25:43):
Well, you know, sometimes you got to sit behind to
go upfront. So now Mark, I'm going to give three
of your hottest college football takes. And the fun part
is the guys here are going to decide either if
you graduate or if you might need to go back
to a year school and say SOPHOMOREIC. But don't worry
about what Rob g says. He's just a fill in, okay,
So just try to get Rob Parker on your side.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
You ready for a Yeah, I'm ready to go.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Let's do this.
Speaker 14 (26:02):
So his first take is Oregon will beats Indiana in
Friday's semi final.
Speaker 5 (26:10):
Mark tells why, Hey, look, man, this tangs me to
do it. I know Indiana is kind of the darling
of America right now, a basketball school looking to win
a national championship in football. But these cool teams have
played this season and this is Oregon's lone loss from
the year. So I love I loved them in this
revenge spot here. They lost that game in Eugene, so
(26:31):
it wasn't home. All lost by ten points. But Dante
Moore threw two picks in that game. I don't see
that happening in this one. I got the Ducks wat
the national championship game.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Mark, you are graduating, I say, congratulates.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
I'm with you, man.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
I want this Indiana story to be over, and I
want Oregon to be the one to pull out the belt.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Okay I do. I'm with you.
Speaker 15 (27:00):
Indiana already there won this fairy tale story about spending
the most money top ten in college football, paying a
quarterback two million, paying the coaches staff twenty million, in
trying to pretend like, oh, woe is me?
Speaker 1 (27:15):
How are we here?
Speaker 2 (27:16):
This is an unbelievable story. I want Oregon to put
the belt down.
Speaker 6 (27:20):
I think Mark uh failed second grade. Oh what are
you talking about?
Speaker 1 (27:27):
You just mentioned it.
Speaker 6 (27:28):
Indiana won the first matchup by double digits in Eugene, Indiana.
Whether they got the biggest bank roll in college football,
like Rob Parker thinks, or they just happen to be
a very well coached team. They are the number one
team in the land for a reason. And you say, hey,
Dante Moore threw two picks in that game. I think
that's gonna happen this one.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Does every number one team win the championship every year?
Speaker 13 (27:51):
No?
Speaker 1 (27:51):
They don't. Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 6 (27:52):
Indiana's defense is still as good as they were back
then when they they met earlier in the season.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Here's the other thing.
Speaker 6 (27:57):
Dante Moore, even though I want my Raiders to draft
them at the top of the draft up coming, he.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Has thrown in You want him instead of Mondozo? Yes?
Speaker 6 (28:04):
I do, Okay, Dante Moore, you say, like two picks again,
through two picks against JMU, through a pick against Texas Tech.
All my man does is throw interceptions. He's got more
turnovers than a bakery in these playoff Shout out to
Rob Parker, So Indiana is gonna roll over the ducks.
Speaker 14 (28:19):
Quack college kids on Fox Sports Radio with the couple
Rob Parker and the great Robert Guiera who swings his
feet on every take. He has Mark Gunnald's here and
he is gonna give us two more hot takes. And Mark,
like I said, only worry about Rob Parker. Rob g
is still in school. Two his second take, OSU super sophomore
wide receiver Jeremiah Smith should be allowed to go pro
(28:41):
right now, Mark tell us why?
Speaker 11 (28:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (28:44):
I mean this is ridiculous that we have to see
him play another year of college football. I mean, if
he would have came out this year, he would have
been a top three pick, maybe after the quarterbacks go
on one and two. But he's the best player in
cost football right now?
Speaker 3 (28:57):
What else does he have to prove?
Speaker 5 (28:59):
Now? I get it, this is not basketball I'm not
saying one and done because I understand the physicality of football, but.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
At least two years. I feel it should be two
and done.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
In Coast football, three years is just ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Mark has graduated again, Say congratulated. I think you went
on Ivy League school this time because I'm you a
spot on. Only in college football and in the NBA
do they stop prodigies. If you're a prodigy, you should
be able to uh hone your craft and move up
(29:32):
to the next level. And this whole thing about the physicality,
grown men get hurt in the NFL every day. It
has nothing to do with that. If somebody is able
to play and can endure whatever, it doesn't mean that
you're not gonna get hurt.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Grown men get hurt.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
So what's the difference if you get hurt now or
you get hurt a few years from now.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Mark, you're graduating, But with a two point zero I
rely got through there. You're walking. You let Rob Parker
as a profess pass you there at the end. You've
got a for me.
Speaker 6 (30:02):
I agree with the sentiment, yes, that he should be
able to go to declare for the draft right now,
because like other Walks of life. Age does not matter.
If you're qualified, you can do it. He's obviously qualified.
The only pushback I have for you, Small is that
he already is a professional football player. He's already getting
paid anywhere with four or five million dollars to play
it OSU. Just because he plays for the minor league
(30:22):
system that is college football, not the NFL, does not
make him not a professional athlete.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
So he's already pro. He'sn't play in the NFL yet.
Speaker 14 (30:30):
It is the on couple with the illustrious Hall of
Famer Rob Parker, the great TV personality Kelvin Washington and
Robb G who likes to swing. Is weat on all
takes filling in for Kelvin Washington? Ridiculous college kids with
Mark Gunnell. Now we have one more take, and Mark,
you think that neither Indiana's Fernando Mendoza nor Oregon's Dante
Moore are NFL franchise quarterbacks?
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Good luck? Tell us? Why?
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Yeah? I know, Rob G definitely all like this one.
Speaker 5 (30:57):
I know you are a Raiders fan, so I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Oh he's struggling.
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Yes, yeah, I'm sorry, man, But I mean you.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Like your Chiefs are much better? Yeah, Okay, oh.
Speaker 5 (31:07):
Wow, you don't want to go there. You don't want
to go there, all right, but uh back to Coege
football here. So I mean, you look at these two guys.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
I think this is a progress.
Speaker 5 (31:17):
Of this draft class. If this is a regular draft class,
you had these top quarterbacks that we've been known for years,
I don't think we will look at these guys as
for sure franchise changing quarterbacks. You got to take the
number one, number two.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
It's just that we have nobody else to compete against.
If Arch Manning came out this year to go over
both of these guys without questions.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Mark, you're failing again.
Speaker 6 (31:45):
You might as well enroll in a junior college right
now because you're not going to make at the university level. Look,
the thing about the NFL and the quote unquote franchise
quarterback is there are only really like four or five
franchise quarterbacks in the NFL Mymes, Alan Jackson Burrow And
if you want to throw j Justin Herbert, I'll fight
you on it.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
But I'll fight you on it not kind of.
Speaker 6 (32:07):
Here are some other quarterbacks that are in the playoffs
right now, Brock Perdy, Jalen Hurts, Sam Darnold, Bryce Young,
Bo Knicks. None of those guys I would consider quote
unquote franchise quarterbacks, but they are the QB one of
their franchise and they're in the playoffs. You don't have
to be in all caps franchise guy to be good
in the NFL. And Fernando Mendoza, Dante Moore, either one
(32:29):
of those guys can get to the next level and
be highly productive in the right situation.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Mark, you have graduated to me. Congratulations, And I'm gonna
say this.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
The one thing he has right is it is oftentimes
based on who's coming out, and guys get pushed to
the front of the line because people need quarterbacks. I'm
not saying that they can't play, but he's right about
arch Manning. If he did come out, wouldn't he be
picked over these two guys.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
That's a fact.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
So people will take them because they need a quarterback
and not too available. But Mark, I'm with you, spot on,
and I do want to say this from all of
us here.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
At the Odd Couple.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
You did a great job your call here with College
pres really really good.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Mark, Thank you, man.
Speaker 5 (33:13):
I really appreciate that.
Speaker 6 (33:15):
Really right, Rob, Yes, sir, I mean, I give Hi
grief for being a Chiefs fan, but Mark Gunnles is
an incredible talent in the space.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Yes, this was the first year I could push on
Mark Gunnell's about the Chiefs and I felt good about it.
Speaker 5 (33:28):
You kept texting me your content about you being right
about us.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
Look on social media. I know. All right, Thanks Mark,
appreciate it. Thanks man, take care of God. All right.
Speaker 6 (33:40):
We got the player of the day, Shekel City coming
up next. Also, surprise, surprise, Rob Parker wants another NFL
coach fired. We'll tell you who that is next. It

Speaker 2 (35:18):
Well I read the text the Texas from Chris Bussard,

Speaker 1 (35:23):
Yes, yes, he just said, I hate to admit it,
but you were on fire this season. Left out love,
laugh out loud, very nice. All right, I'm done. Let's
do it. And with that, it's time for the tire

Speaker 1 (36:16):
It's not for Schecho.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
City two Shekel City, Thanks for Rob Parkers, Daly Dix
against the Sprat.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
Did I knew that?
Speaker 11 (36:30):
Did I do?
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Did I knew that? To a good start? Since three said?
Speaker 2 (36:38):
I was two and one last night, now ten and
five on the year. My best bet, I'm taking Miami
minus three and a half.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
Against Ole miss.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I got the Mavericks minus seven and a half through
in Utah taking on the Jazz and the Cavaliers plus
two and a half during Minnie plus taking on the
te Wolves. So again Calves plus two and a half
MAVs minus seven and a half and in college football,
Miami minus three and a half. And remember, I'm not
(37:12):
telling you who to bet on Rob g I'm telling
you who I bet on Rob Parker.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Right, I'm not going to find I'm going to talk
to Ricky. We got to put something together.
Speaker 6 (37:27):
YouTube blowing up the YouTube beans fed up with that drop.
Already got three different people saying, you know what, Alex
is a fluffer. Alex definitely a fluffer. At least one
person says the hobo man. Hey, even fluffers play an
important role. That's right, It's true in this world.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
That's right.
Speaker 6 (37:44):
Big news that came out other than this college football
player game, keep an eye on. In the NFL, Mike
McDaniel was fired as the head coach of the Miami Dolphin.
Shout out to Deub who called that. I know you
don't want to admit it when someone else is right,
but he had that one.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
You know what, Alex he said could? He was right,
he said could.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
When you watch when you watch that video today, you
hearing he could would have could win.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
That's anybody could. Of course they could could win.
Speaker 6 (38:10):
But to spin it forward, Rob's like, I don't care
about him getting fired. There's another coach in that division
who should have been fired.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
His name is what Aaron Glenn.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
And I know they're not going to do it, but
but sometimes, like I give the Raiders credit. He Carroll
had some, he has some some credit, right, Like he's
one of.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
A Super Bowls another one.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
It's really and in college football, you know at USC,
I get all that, but they didn't say it was terrible,
rob G.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
When it's terrible, it's terrible. They didn't go, well, let's
we can't do this to Pete Carol, Let's give him
another year.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
No, Aaron Glenn. Last year, this past season awful, rob G.
You ever hear of a National Football League team that
didn't get an interception like that? Is that's in conceit
Not in my lifetime, that's inconceivable. No, maybe in the
(39:06):
era when they only ran the ball and they didn't
have the forward pass.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
And even then they got at least one. Right, it's
mind boggling.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
And I told you before the end of the season
what they gave up, like in the last five games.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
The month of December was not kind for the uh Politans.
They lost to the Dolphins, thirty four to ten. They
lost to the Jags forty eight to twenty, the loss
of the Saints twenty nine to six, shout out debris.
They lost to the Patriots forty two to ten, and
they lost to the Bills thirty five to eight.
Speaker 2 (39:36):
And josh Alla did't even played that game. Just awful.
And you know, I think they want to save face.
If the Jets could actually save face. He also brought
in Justin Field's two year contract. That was his guy,
Aaron Rodgers get out of here, all that other stuff,
and then they trade away some of their best defensive players.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
I mean, it's just a mess.
Speaker 2 (39:59):
And I don't see I'll be shocked even if they
get a top one of these quarterbacks that anything's going
to change there.
Speaker 6 (40:07):
Yeah, anytime you make a decision based on the pr
and not what's actually best for your franchise, you made
a mistake.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
And the Jets are.
Speaker 6 (40:14):
More looking like a functional franchise quote unquote, Hey, we
don't go through coaches every year like the Raiders.
Speaker 15 (40:20):
Do.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
We know what we're doing. We're building something here. No,
you're not. You hired a defensive coach who has a
terrible defense, so period, and what are you doing right?
Speaker 2 (40:29):
Nothing went well this year, even the stuff that he
does exactly that's what you get afraid.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
I agree.
Speaker 6 (40:35):
That's like hiring Kyle Shannon and the offense sucks, like
that's supposed to be your thing, dude.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
And you're terrible. You can't do that, and then maybe
you fix the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
So all right, our number two of the odd couple
coming up, and you know what you want.
Speaker 1 (40:47):
You want to be here, So what do they need
to do?
Speaker 14 (40:49):
Alex stick and stay Because Ron Parker was right in

I forgot. They don't take calls exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Hey, write it down committed to memory, eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
For you layman out there can't figure out the letters and.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
The numbers trigonometry, it's eight seven seven nine nine six
sixty three sixty nine. And if you hear feedback on
the line at your own fault, it means only one thing.
Speaker 5 (01:59):
You forgot to turn down the radio.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
And if you're calling, you and I have a problem
with what we say to you, tough, because well I'm talking.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
To you the way I want to talk to you.
You have a problem, turn off your station. That's right.
And with all of that said, always remember the Odd
Couple was filmed in front of a live audience.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Sweetie, all right, let's go big show.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Let me welcome with my colls today. Bud Mexican. He

Mexican to Calvin is not feeling well? So Rob G.

I'm just honed. You look good. Yeah, it's not a terrible. Yeah. Anyway, Rob,
(02:49):
you know.
Speaker 6 (02:49):
It serious when he calls out for TV because that's
where the real money is. And so I was like, oh, snap,
he's making money. Will really be down bad?
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Yeah, So hopefully he'll be back tomorrow. We'll see, Yeah,
we hope. So what's happening. I'm struggling in these streets
right now, struggling. You want to hear doing a radio
show on four hundred stations? Can you stop it? What
are you struggling about?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
I gotta sit next to you for three hours, That's
what I'm struggling right, Alex, me and Rob got a
lot of pent up frustration. When we do, you can
feel it bubbling over it. I don't know something. Are
we gonna fight it? Somebody have to to get it out.
Speaker 6 (03:22):
We should do it at Radio Row, like in front
of everybody and then and then Nick Reight can put
on the graphic like you did with you and Chris.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Can you guys keep it down over there? That was
the NFL NETW I remember that. That was good. Chris
and I at the at the super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I don't know what we're doing it with Tom Brady
and we went at it am I right and so
much so like all the other shows stopped.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
They were like, what are they doing over there? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (03:47):
And it was Nick Wright who was hosting a show
for Serious right, and he was directly across from us,
And rather than coming over and say, hey, guys, you
keep me down, they put on the big graphics screen
three hundred feet across.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Hey, Parker Westar, can you keep it down over there? Yes,
we will keep it down all right. Hey, we got
so much to do, so little.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Time on this TV theme song Thursday, all excited and
again Kelvin. We hope that he gets well and he'll
be back tomorrow. That's right, let's welcome in the odd
couple crew. We wouldn't be able to do this farm
radio program without him.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Alex is our engineer.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Behind the curtain.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
He's a hidden talent. He is. You're a hidden talent,
no doubt about it. Breed, how are you Vitamin bri?
Vitamin Brie, that's your new name, Vitamin Brie or.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
If you need a rite to the airport, Ubrey? Yes?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Nice, how are you, Bree? I'm good, guys sitting over here.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
She's in uh rob G's chair. Yes, she's taller, producing
screening calls. Will be nice when you call in.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Weird to have somebody sitting next to me in their
feet touch the ground, It's amazing, uh, Manzi, but yeah,
is that the anchor? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
And at least when you know I'm introducing and we're
all always going to say her.
Speaker 7 (05:07):
Name properly right now, Mancy Bologna, is what exactly you know?
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Sometimes Kelvin, you know he's on television flubbing names, making
money is unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Yeah, Monty's already on the YouTube page just looking for
mentions of herself.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Is that right? Manzi? You know what? Listen, I got
called down. So now I'm never going on YouTube again.
Never again.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
I've never I got called out on the show like
a few weeks like last weeks.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
I'm never going on again.
Speaker 8 (05:31):
You're so good, you're good to make a fake account.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
The legitimate comment just came in Bri and Mancy on
the same show.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
All casts. I used to pray for afternoons like this.
Speaker 8 (05:40):
See we're still praying for them for consisting afternoon drive
like this.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Can you wait five years? Maybe? Maybe? I mean, I mean,
I mean take you out before that. Oh wow, just
kidding around.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I'm just getting yes and of course, Uh Saga is
our social media Google.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Best dropping them.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
My man Saga put out a video approved of performance
video you saw, did you see Alix or you didn't
see it?
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Yeah, he did a great job. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
It probably could have been like an hour long, but
that doesn't work on social because it was all of
my correct NFL picks this year, Rob G, even you
the most. He's my harshest critic, rob G. He is
you just got to give it up.
Speaker 6 (06:26):
That's why I'm so frustrated, is because you are having
like the season of a lifetime, like this is what
was it the year that Michael Jordan was like Defensive
Player of the Year and had all those things, uh,
scoring title and the NBA Like a relax, say, some
of the rest.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Of us, you've won enough.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
You've been in like four Hall of Fames and you've
gotten seven of the your hottest takes correct already, it's
gonna be all bad at the place.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
All right, Hey, let's go.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
We got a lot to get to and again we
want to hear from you on this TV theme. So
on Thursday eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, Uh,
let's go here, Rob G for the game thirty minutes
from now exactly the semifinals, right, sir, We got ole
Miss in Miami, so we're all looking forward to that.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
But uh, people still calling out Lane.
Speaker 6 (07:13):
Kiffn Yes, sir, now Lane Kiffin leading into these playoffs.
You know he left for LSU on the eve, on
the doorstep of the playoff. Little did we know that
ole Miss would win two playoff games get to this point.
Now they're playing in the semi final. And one of
the big stories coming into it was we talked about
on the show. Lane Kiffin wanted to finish out the
(07:35):
season with ole Miss for Gwenn LSU.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
He asked them.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
During their meetings and they said, no, I know I'm leaving,
but I want to finish what I started with these guys.
Let me coach out the rest of the season. They said, no,
hell no, you cannot do it. But he graciously still
allowed several of his assistants to coach to the rest
of the wall.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
He could have said no, could have said leaving, and
why why were they okay with them?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Even though they.
Speaker 6 (07:58):
Leads exactly well Flash Goward to tonight And even though
before the playoffs started, Kiffing allowed five of his assistants
to coach through the rest of the way. Only two
are left on the staff for ole Miss tonight. That
would be offensive coordinator Charlie Wise junior running backs coach
Kevin Smith. And there's one former college football coach, one
(08:18):
Jimbo Fisher, who really hated that decision.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Take a listen. It's selfish, that's what it is. It's stupid.
Speaker 9 (08:25):
And because here's why I say that, he wanted to
coach and thought he didn't get his way. So everybody
get on the plane with me. You don't have a job,
all right, And he makes them all go. Then he
gets down there and takes a pr hit because it
looks bad that you really don't care about the kids.
Then he says, okay, you can go back. But here's
where he screwed up.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
He thought they were gonna lose.
Speaker 9 (08:43):
He thought they were gonna lose a Georgia. The portal
thing was all over with, and it was gonna.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Be all over with. He said, oh, I'll look like
a hero.
Speaker 9 (08:49):
Now he's got an egg going in his face because
the real lane came back out, you know what I'm saying.
And he's and if those guys were allowed to coach
a first game. They should be allowed to coach be
four because those guys are doing those kids are doing
something that you get one time in your life to
air or do that team and those guys one time.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
And as a coach, let's not know, I've left a job.
I'll get that.
Speaker 9 (09:06):
But if you took them on, took them off, said
they're never coming back, that's fine. You set the rules
of the game. You don't change the rules in the
middle of the game. And as a coach, it's hurting
the kids and it pisses me off.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
What a hypocrite? Did you hear?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
A hypocrite there? I left the job. Yeah, you did
a couple times. A couple times. You fraud you phony.
You guys kill me your chance to dump on Lane Kiffin.
Guess what, Rob Gee, he was there for six years.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
He built this team.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
It's not his fault that the college football Tom Clark
and schedule is a bad one. He had no choice
the way it's set up. He's not the first guy
to do that. And he offered to stay, let me
finish the season out. The school got their pennies in
a bunch after he finally.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Put together a team. Rob g to give them a chance.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
If you don't want anything to do with Lane Kiffin,
why are you using his assistance or leaving with him.
They're not coming back. It doesn't even make any sense.
And then you're trying to make him out the bad guy.
I hope Old Miss loses tonight. I hope they lose.
And then I want to hear what they gotta say. Oh,
(10:25):
ain't no, no, he went and took a better job.
He didn't take an equal job, Rob g or you
know where. He just kind of made a lateral move.
LSU has way more resources and gives them a real
opportunity to win a national championship. This is a beautiful story,
but it ain't Lane Kiffin. He didn't make the rules
(10:46):
and make the timetable and offered to stay.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
The school. They wanted to be big and bad.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
If you were so big and bad, you would say
take your assistance too, But they even knew they couldn't
do that, So they're using the guy that he hired.
He helped to coach and coach up and develop, and
now they want to act like he's the bad guy.
Speaker 6 (11:06):
I hope you'll lose Old Miss. Spot on, Rob, you're
so right, you can't turn the left. I know that's
disappointed to the odd mob. They want me to come
out of your neck all rest of don't say that, Alex.
They want me to go at you all afternoon. And
it's like, look, there are certain things, unfortunately we're going
to agree with, and in this case, you are one
thousand percent correct. And even going back to this whole
thing about how Jimbo Fisher saying, hey, well, why would
(11:28):
you let him coach one game and out the other game?
And it's like, bro, if you break up with your
wife and you need a place to crash, hey, come
crashing my place. No big deal. That does not mean indefinitely. Why,
it does not mean you can stay there forever. While
you would figure it out with your lady friend, it's
not gonna do that way. Lane Kiffin did you a
favor and said, hey, you're not gonna let me coach.
(11:51):
I disagree with I think he's a dumb decision, but
I respect your decision. You want to use some of
my assistants so that you have some kind of well, first,
let them stay so that they could stay in the playoff, right,
because they thought if they all left they might drop
out of the rings completely. He says, I'll let you
have them so you have some kind of synergy into
this postseason. I think it'll give you the best chance
to win. That was a month ago.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Now right.
Speaker 6 (12:12):
You know what's happened in a month in the world
of college football. We talked about it yesterday. You had
four thousand players jump into the portal.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Thank you.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
You had a player yesterday at you Dub that we
talked about signed an nil deal, try to back out
of it, enter the transfer portal.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Now it's being blocked by Washington.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Unfortunately for ole Miss, for LSU, for every college football
program in the country.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
The way the calendar.
Speaker 6 (12:36):
Is right now, it behooves Lane Kiffin to have his
staffers with him so that he doesn't lose seventy five
percent of his roster that portal, so that he could
get ahead start on finding his next quarterback, which he
allowed on the stay exactly. And to be quite honest
with you, their current quarterback, Chambliss is a guy.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
He wants to bring out you, or try to. You
don't think that he.
Speaker 6 (12:59):
Would be and his best interests say, you know what,
I really want that kid. They're not letting him out
Charlie watching your come back over here because we didn't
find a different quarterback. They're not letting us get the
one that we want. Of course, it would help him
do that, but instead they're making him out to be
this villain for wanting to put his future in front
(13:20):
of what happened in the past. And that's not fair
to anybody. If you weren't at another company and you leave,
do they expect you to be like, Hey, I know
that you left us, but you'll really be doing us
a favorite you did X, Y and Z. No, that's irresponsible.
That's not fair to expect a new employee to do that.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
No, and they make it like he made the rules.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
The Jimbo Fisher interviews terrible to me because when he
said that, where's the host to jump in and say, yeah,
you did leave your kids on a lerchs.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Didn't you?
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Why are you now ripping Lane Kiffin? Didn't you do
the same thing? Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (13:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:57):
The reason that it was okay with you is because
your team wasn't going to the or you were. Your
team wasn't good enough, you know, but you still walked
out on your.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Kids for a new deal.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Come on Man, They've all done it, Rob Gen to
make Lane Kiffin. If you don't like lang Kiffin, that's fine,
and I get it. He comes with some baggage from
other places. But am I wrong on the h that's fine?
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Six years of seven get there.
Speaker 6 (14:18):
You can absolutely not like Lane Kiffin as a person,
and I totally He's done some some scumbag type of
stuff throughout his ten year as as a coach, both
at the pro level and in the college level. But
in this instance, to try to make it out like
he's the bad guy is off base.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
No doubt, all right?
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven, seven, nine,
nine six sixty three sixteen go ahead, read the teens.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
Is it off base to Carl lane Kiffin selfish? Is
Jimbo Fisher being a hypocrite in the situation? Eight seven

Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox Sean from Sacramento.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Of course, he had to jump in, what's.
Speaker 10 (17:35):
Up, yeah, mother me primo for from an author Madre.
Speaker 11 (17:43):
Rather, bro, we love it and my brother's behind the board. Man,
I couldn't disagree with rhymes anymore. Man, Wow, same saying
Lane Kippin is rehabbing his past my ditching yet another
team to help him rebuild him. So come on, man,
he ditched the Vault just to get fired by USC.
(18:04):
He went to Florida Atlantic, built himself up just to
ditch them to.
Speaker 12 (18:07):
Get back to Old Myth and another premiere d one situation.
And you would think making the playoffs and putting yourself
in a position to actually win his ship was good enough.
But just like every other self low than self hating
person in this world, he ditched them for greener pastors.
I hope he never wins the championship. I hope Old
Miss pulls off the impossible and shows him that being
(18:29):
faithful and doing what you're supposed to do, a biding
by a contract actually pays off at the end of
the day.
Speaker 11 (18:34):
Y'all to our way out of order with this man,
all right, thank you.
Speaker 6 (18:38):
What's funny is Rob just said he don't want him
to win either. You don't want Old Miss to win,
You want winn he's hoping for it. Ever want to lose.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Tony in DC, you're on the odd couple of Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
What's up Tony?
Speaker 10 (18:50):
Oh, it's rob g. That jacket is fire, My boy,
you need to put that up for auction.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
My god.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Everybody says that that's his favorite jacket.
Speaker 10 (19:00):
Yes, but look, there's a capitalist society, and you spend
your life getting to the biggest boosters. The biggest boosters
are in the SEC conference. Old miss thought they were
Bentley until real Bentley pulled up, and now they realize
you're a crash of three hundred. Hey, look, he's got
(19:21):
to win and hear a LSU because he's got the
biggest boosters. Are no more excuses for him. If he
doesn't win here at l s U within three to.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Five years or three years, it's.
Speaker 10 (19:29):
A rap for him. There's no more there's no more
upper movements. It's all latter after this.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
No doubt.
Speaker 6 (19:34):
That's thank you to He could absolutely be saying us
up to fail in LSU, But in this instance, there's
nothing wrong with what he did or what is currently doing.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
I'm cool with the call.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
In the Bay Area, you're on the YDD couple Fox
Sports Radio. What's up, call, Fellas, how are you listener,
and I'm good, how you guys doing great? Longtime listener, And.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
And I've caught a few times Pa would be with
Lane kissing right. If he was stayed, if they allowed
him to stay and coach throughout the college football playoffs,
then who would have been to have to meet all
these kids in the portable in the portal. Who would
have been there to look for that new quarterback?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Exactly? Nobody? No body. That's that's the problem is.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
So it comes to my point is if he would
have stayed at Old mister coach throughout the playoff and
win a national championship, nobody would have been there. He
wouldn't have been there to meet these.
Speaker 10 (20:32):
People in the portal.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
He wouldn't have been looking for a new quarterback because
he should have been concentrated on winning that national championship
at Old Miss correct.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Spot on.
Speaker 6 (20:39):
And then that's why Jimbo Fisher when he calls him
selfish in this instance, he was the opposite of selfish
because to your point, he founded to stay.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
And if he would.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Selfish you to say, give me my coach exactly going
to LSU, we.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Wanted to stay.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
If he wins the national judge hip with Old Miss
to the callers point he misses out on four thousand
eligible tracks.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
First roulsu Eric in Austin, Texas. You're on the couple
of Fox Sports Radio. What's up e?
Speaker 13 (21:07):
What a Rob Rober?
Speaker 3 (21:08):
How you gotta do it?
Speaker 13 (21:09):
Man?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
What up doing great? How are you okay?
Speaker 3 (21:12):
I'm good.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
I'm good.
Speaker 13 (21:13):
I don't know if you remember, but I called it
in last week when we talked about this before. Y'all
are spot on it. And Sean the first caller, Sean
Sacramento in his feelings, we're not talking about Lane from
his past. We're not talking about his fast and addresses.
You cannot like Lane and still acknowledge that he's not
wrong in the situation. If he would have stayed it
Old Miss and coached out the whole playoff run, nobody.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Will be mad here.
Speaker 13 (21:34):
And the fact that he let his coordinator stay yep,
I don't understand this.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
And again Lane wanted to.
Speaker 13 (21:40):
Say, oh, Miss Dada celt away and they deserve to
fill away. They gets out doing a feel about it.
But he wanted to say if he would have stayed,
there would have been issues.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah, I agree, I just I just can't in this
case I don't think Lane Kiffin's a bad guy.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
Can we squeeze one more?
Speaker 6 (21:56):
No?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Okay, all right, that's why we got to get it.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
Yes, we got college kids with Mark Gunnell. We'll get
into some big ten football action with him.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
But first, weren't an odd couple.
Speaker 8 (22:09):
You didn't, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
You had yours on. So now I wanted to be
part of the fun. I wanted to be part of
the fun.
Speaker 8 (22:14):
So thank you. Because it's very windy today out here
in southern California.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
All right, guys, let me.
Speaker 8 (22:21):
Tell you what's going on today, aside from the college
football playoff semi final. It's about to start in what
we've got about a couple of minutes. Maybe if that
ten seed Miami versus sixteed, Oh Miss. This is a
festable semi final college football playoff. Let's go. But today
in the NFL, the Dolphins fired head coach Mike McDaniel
after four seasons. But don't worry, the Lines have already
(22:42):
reached out to McDaniel about their offensive coordinator position.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
NFL media is reporting.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
That the Titans are going to interview former Packers and
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy for their head coaching job Ravens.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
He is still around. He is still around.
Speaker 8 (22:57):
Ravens have requested a head coach interview with forty nine
Ers defensive coordinator Robert Salah. He has had, He has
had interview requests from a few people, though already in Atlanta, Arizona.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Some guys coordinators than they all had coaches. You're serious, Yeah,
I agree with that.
Speaker 6 (23:11):
I was so bad with the Jets, Like Rob's a
better writer than he is a radio hotel.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Wow. What Oh, that's what I heard after forty years?
Do you hear that? That's what I heard? I knew that.
I knew that.
Speaker 8 (23:26):
Former Commander's offensive coordinator Cliff Kingsbury has received a head
coach interview requests from the Titans and the Ravens as well.
When it comes to football this weekend, the Rams have
ruled out guard Kevin Dotson for Saturday's game at Carolina
because of his ankle injury. But good news because wide
receiver Davante Adams is not on their final injury report.
The Bears have ruled or excuse me, the Bears have
(23:47):
ruled out cornerback or defensive backs CJ. Gardner Johnson due
to a concussion for Saturday's game, but wide receivers Roma
Dude say DJ Moore, they're off the injury report.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
They are good to go.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Also, apparently in baseball, guys are gonna meet with Boba
Shit on Monday. They're trying to spice things up in Philadelphia.
When it comes to the NBA, the Pacers are up
on the Hornets right now, twenty nine to twenty two.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
It's late in the first quarter.
Speaker 8 (24:10):
Back to you guys, Thanks BONSI just yeah, there we go.
Speaker 6 (24:14):

Speaker 6 (24:31):
Well, you know we're brought to you by Leave Leave

and right now it's time for college kids.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
It's time for the college kids here on the odd
Come look at this week's college football through the eyes
of the young, inexperience.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
No ruck in event, they swear they know college ball.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
Take the yeah right, fundamentals are gonna show up. Are
there takes? Sophomoric graduation worth it? Robin Calvin will aside,
bring them on.
Speaker 14 (25:16):
Now we all know that Rob Parker is an illustrious
forty years in the industry in every single Hall of
fame that's probably been here since Oreos and Cheerios. But
now Rob Parker's extending his reach to not only his mentorship,
but bringing in some people who we are going to
one day called experts to host something we'd call college
kids in no other than the great Mark Gunnals himself.
(25:36):
Mark say what up to the crew?
Speaker 5 (25:38):
Hey, how you gotta do it?
Speaker 6 (25:39):
What?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Mark? What an intro? Very nice, Alex, Thank you so
much talent.
Speaker 14 (25:43):
Well, you know, sometimes you got to sit behind to
go upfront. So now Mark, I'm going to give three
of your hottest college football takes. And the fun part
is the guys here are going to decide either if
you graduate or if you might need to go back
to a year school and say SOPHOMOREIC. But don't worry
about what Rob g says. He's just a fill in, okay,
So just try to get Rob Parker on your side.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
You ready for a Yeah, I'm ready to go.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Let's do this.
Speaker 14 (26:02):
So his first take is Oregon will beats Indiana in
Friday's semi final.
Speaker 5 (26:10):
Mark tells why, Hey, look, man, this tangs me to
do it. I know Indiana is kind of the darling
of America right now, a basketball school looking to win
a national championship in football. But these cool teams have
played this season and this is Oregon's lone loss from
the year. So I love I loved them in this
revenge spot here. They lost that game in Eugene, so
(26:31):
it wasn't home. All lost by ten points. But Dante
Moore threw two picks in that game. I don't see
that happening in this one. I got the Ducks wat
the national championship game.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Mark, you are graduating, I say, congratulates.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
I'm with you, man.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
I want this Indiana story to be over, and I
want Oregon to be the one to pull out the belt.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Okay I do. I'm with you.
Speaker 15 (27:00):
Indiana already there won this fairy tale story about spending
the most money top ten in college football, paying a
quarterback two million, paying the coaches staff twenty million, in
trying to pretend like, oh, woe is me?
Speaker 1 (27:15):
How are we here?
Speaker 2 (27:16):
This is an unbelievable story. I want Oregon to put
the belt down.
Speaker 6 (27:20):
I think Mark uh failed second grade. Oh what are
you talking about?
Speaker 1 (27:27):
You just mentioned it.
Speaker 6 (27:28):
Indiana won the first matchup by double digits in Eugene, Indiana.
Whether they got the biggest bank roll in college football,
like Rob Parker thinks, or they just happen to be
a very well coached team. They are the number one
team in the land for a reason. And you say, hey,
Dante Moore threw two picks in that game. I think
that's gonna happen this one.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Does every number one team win the championship every year?
Speaker 13 (27:51):
No?
Speaker 1 (27:51):
They don't. Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 6 (27:52):
Indiana's defense is still as good as they were back
then when they they met earlier in the season.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Here's the other thing.
Speaker 6 (27:57):
Dante Moore, even though I want my Raiders to draft
them at the top of the draft up coming, he.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Has thrown in You want him instead of Mondozo? Yes?
Speaker 6 (28:04):
I do, Okay, Dante Moore, you say, like two picks again,
through two picks against JMU, through a pick against Texas Tech.
All my man does is throw interceptions. He's got more
turnovers than a bakery in these playoff Shout out to
Rob Parker, So Indiana is gonna roll over the ducks.
Speaker 14 (28:19):
Quack college kids on Fox Sports Radio with the couple
Rob Parker and the great Robert Guiera who swings his
feet on every take. He has Mark Gunnald's here and
he is gonna give us two more hot takes. And Mark,
like I said, only worry about Rob Parker. Rob g
is still in school. Two his second take, OSU super sophomore
wide receiver Jeremiah Smith should be allowed to go pro
(28:41):
right now, Mark tell us why?
Speaker 11 (28:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (28:44):
I mean this is ridiculous that we have to see
him play another year of college football. I mean, if
he would have came out this year, he would have
been a top three pick, maybe after the quarterbacks go
on one and two. But he's the best player in
cost football right now?
Speaker 3 (28:57):
What else does he have to prove?
Speaker 5 (28:59):
Now? I get it, this is not basketball I'm not
saying one and done because I understand the physicality of football, but.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
At least two years. I feel it should be two
and done.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
In Coast football, three years is just ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Mark has graduated again, Say congratulated. I think you went
on Ivy League school this time because I'm you a
spot on. Only in college football and in the NBA
do they stop prodigies. If you're a prodigy, you should
be able to uh hone your craft and move up
(29:32):
to the next level. And this whole thing about the physicality,
grown men get hurt in the NFL every day. It
has nothing to do with that. If somebody is able
to play and can endure whatever, it doesn't mean that
you're not gonna get hurt.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Grown men get hurt.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
So what's the difference if you get hurt now or
you get hurt a few years from now.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Mark, you're graduating, But with a two point zero I
rely got through there. You're walking. You let Rob Parker
as a profess pass you there at the end. You've
got a for me.
Speaker 6 (30:02):
I agree with the sentiment, yes, that he should be
able to go to declare for the draft right now,
because like other Walks of life. Age does not matter.
If you're qualified, you can do it. He's obviously qualified.
The only pushback I have for you, Small is that
he already is a professional football player. He's already getting
paid anywhere with four or five million dollars to play
it OSU. Just because he plays for the minor league
(30:22):
system that is college football, not the NFL, does not
make him not a professional athlete.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
So he's already pro. He'sn't play in the NFL yet.
Speaker 14 (30:30):
It is the on couple with the illustrious Hall of
Famer Rob Parker, the great TV personality Kelvin Washington and
Robb G who likes to swing. Is weat on all
takes filling in for Kelvin Washington? Ridiculous college kids with
Mark Gunnell. Now we have one more take, and Mark,
you think that neither Indiana's Fernando Mendoza nor Oregon's Dante
Moore are NFL franchise quarterbacks?
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Good luck? Tell us? Why?
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Yeah? I know, Rob G definitely all like this one.
Speaker 5 (30:57):
I know you are a Raiders fan, so I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Oh he's struggling.
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Yes, yeah, I'm sorry, man, But I mean you.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Like your Chiefs are much better? Yeah, Okay, oh.
Speaker 5 (31:07):
Wow, you don't want to go there. You don't want
to go there, all right, but uh back to Coege
football here. So I mean, you look at these two guys.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
I think this is a progress.
Speaker 5 (31:17):
Of this draft class. If this is a regular draft class,
you had these top quarterbacks that we've been known for years,
I don't think we will look at these guys as
for sure franchise changing quarterbacks. You got to take the
number one, number two.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
It's just that we have nobody else to compete against.
If Arch Manning came out this year to go over
both of these guys without questions.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Mark, you're failing again.
Speaker 6 (31:45):
You might as well enroll in a junior college right
now because you're not going to make at the university level. Look,
the thing about the NFL and the quote unquote franchise
quarterback is there are only really like four or five
franchise quarterbacks in the NFL Mymes, Alan Jackson Burrow And
if you want to throw j Justin Herbert, I'll fight
you on it.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
But I'll fight you on it not kind of.
Speaker 6 (32:07):
Here are some other quarterbacks that are in the playoffs
right now, Brock Perdy, Jalen Hurts, Sam Darnold, Bryce Young,
Bo Knicks. None of those guys I would consider quote
unquote franchise quarterbacks, but they are the QB one of
their franchise and they're in the playoffs. You don't have
to be in all caps franchise guy to be good
in the NFL. And Fernando Mendoza, Dante Moore, either one
(32:29):
of those guys can get to the next level and
be highly productive in the right situation.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Mark, you have graduated to me. Congratulations, And I'm gonna
say this.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
The one thing he has right is it is oftentimes
based on who's coming out, and guys get pushed to
the front of the line because people need quarterbacks. I'm
not saying that they can't play, but he's right about
arch Manning. If he did come out, wouldn't he be
picked over these two guys.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
That's a fact.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
So people will take them because they need a quarterback
and not too available. But Mark, I'm with you, spot on,
and I do want to say this from all of
us here.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
At the Odd Couple.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
You did a great job your call here with College
pres really really good.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Mark, Thank you, man.
Speaker 5 (33:13):
I really appreciate that.
Speaker 6 (33:15):
Really right, Rob, Yes, sir, I mean, I give Hi
grief for being a Chiefs fan, but Mark Gunnles is
an incredible talent in the space.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Yes, this was the first year I could push on
Mark Gunnell's about the Chiefs and I felt good about it.
Speaker 5 (33:28):
You kept texting me your content about you being right
about us.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
Look on social media. I know. All right, Thanks Mark,
appreciate it. Thanks man, take care of God. All right.
Speaker 6 (33:40):
We got the player of the day, Shekel City coming
up next. Also, surprise, surprise, Rob Parker wants another NFL
coach fired. We'll tell you who that is next. It
is the Odd Couple, Rob Parker, Rob G sit every

social media and you saw what Saga put together about
my picks this year and cool?
Speaker 14 (34:43):
Rob, Actually we're on the street. Is we actually have
imaging for when you're right now too?
Speaker 1 (34:47):

Oh I love that we are never Ricky. I love that,
my god, never, Oh god, I need baby oil. I mean, wow,
that's awesome.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
Well I read the text the Texas from Chris Bussard,
our friend and our former listening.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Yes, yes, he just said, I hate to admit it,
but you were on fire this season. Left out love,
laugh out loud, very nice. All right, I'm done. Let's
do it. And with that, it's time for the tire
rat playing today. Ab trying to get it in fine Pollo.

Speaker 6 (35:57):

Speaker 1 (36:16):
It's not for Schecho.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
City two Shekel City, Thanks for Rob Parkers, Daly Dix
against the Sprat.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
Did I knew that?
Speaker 11 (36:30):
Did I do?
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Did I knew that? To a good start? Since three said?
Speaker 2 (36:38):
I was two and one last night, now ten and
five on the year. My best bet, I'm taking Miami
minus three and a half.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
Against Ole miss.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I got the Mavericks minus seven and a half through
in Utah taking on the Jazz and the Cavaliers plus
two and a half during Minnie plus taking on the
te Wolves. So again Calves plus two and a half
MAVs minus seven and a half and in college football,
Miami minus three and a half. And remember, I'm not
(37:12):
telling you who to bet on Rob g I'm telling
you who I bet on Rob Parker.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Right, I'm not going to find I'm going to talk
to Ricky. We got to put something together.
Speaker 6 (37:27):
YouTube blowing up the YouTube beans fed up with that drop.
Already got three different people saying, you know what, Alex
is a fluffer. Alex definitely a fluffer. At least one
person says the hobo man. Hey, even fluffers play an
important role. That's right, It's true in this world.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
That's right.
Speaker 6 (37:44):
Big news that came out other than this college football
player game, keep an eye on. In the NFL, Mike
McDaniel was fired as the head coach of the Miami Dolphin.
Shout out to Deub who called that. I know you
don't want to admit it when someone else is right,
but he had that one.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
You know what, Alex he said could? He was right,
he said could.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
When you watch when you watch that video today, you
hearing he could would have could win.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
That's anybody could. Of course they could could win.
Speaker 6 (38:10):
But to spin it forward, Rob's like, I don't care
about him getting fired. There's another coach in that division
who should have been fired.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
His name is what Aaron Glenn.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
And I know they're not going to do it, but
but sometimes, like I give the Raiders credit. He Carroll
had some, he has some some credit, right, Like he's
one of.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
A Super Bowls another one.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
It's really and in college football, you know at USC,
I get all that, but they didn't say it was terrible,
rob G.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
When it's terrible, it's terrible. They didn't go, well, let's
we can't do this to Pete Carol, Let's give him
another year.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
No, Aaron Glenn. Last year, this past season awful, rob G.
You ever hear of a National Football League team that
didn't get an interception like that? Is that's in conceit
Not in my lifetime, that's inconceivable. No, maybe in the
(39:06):
era when they only ran the ball and they didn't
have the forward pass.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
And even then they got at least one. Right, it's
mind boggling.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
And I told you before the end of the season
what they gave up, like in the last five games.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
The month of December was not kind for the uh Politans.
They lost to the Dolphins, thirty four to ten. They
lost to the Jags forty eight to twenty, the loss
of the Saints twenty nine to six, shout out debris.
They lost to the Patriots forty two to ten, and
they lost to the Bills thirty five to eight.
Speaker 2 (39:36):
And josh Alla did't even played that game. Just awful.
And you know, I think they want to save face.
If the Jets could actually save face. He also brought
in Justin Field's two year contract. That was his guy,
Aaron Rodgers get out of here, all that other stuff,
and then they trade away some of their best defensive players.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
I mean, it's just a mess.
Speaker 2 (39:59):
And I don't see I'll be shocked even if they
get a top one of these quarterbacks that anything's going
to change there.
Speaker 6 (40:07):
Yeah, anytime you make a decision based on the pr
and not what's actually best for your franchise, you made
a mistake.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
And the Jets are.
Speaker 6 (40:14):
More looking like a functional franchise quote unquote, Hey, we
don't go through coaches every year like the Raiders.
Speaker 15 (40:20):
Do.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
We know what we're doing. We're building something here. No,
you're not. You hired a defensive coach who has a
terrible defense, so period, and what are you doing right?
Speaker 2 (40:29):
Nothing went well this year, even the stuff that he
does exactly that's what you get afraid.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
I agree.
Speaker 6 (40:35):
That's like hiring Kyle Shannon and the offense sucks, like
that's supposed to be your thing, dude.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
And you're terrible. You can't do that, and then maybe
you fix the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
So all right, our number two of the odd couple
coming up, and you know what you want.
Speaker 1 (40:47):
You want to be here, So what do they need
to do?
Speaker 14 (40:49):
Alex stick and stay Because Ron Parker was right in
