Yeah, well, big guys, Jonahs Knox is coming through your

Not stop now live from the tire rack dot Com studio.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
So, Fox Sports Radio, what.

Speaker 5 (00:33):
Are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (00:34):
What is this your first day on the job.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
Here's Jonas Knock.

Speaker 6 (00:37):
Scanning the fast Way, Grandma the Bingo Gament running them all.

Speaker 7 (00:56):
So we've got ourselves some pretend leverage in the world
of sports. We'll tell you what that is coming up
here just a couple of moments from now, Jonas Stocks
Fox Sports Radio. You can listen to this show as
always on the iHeartRadio app. You can find this on
hundreds of affiliates all across the country and wherever the

We appreciate you doing so, and.

We do it all live from the ti raq dot
com studios. Tirac dot com will help you get there
an unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free road hazard protection,

the way tire buying should be. So we've got some
pretend leverage in the NFL. Mike Lombardi, who's a former

(01:42):
NFL executive, long run in the NFL, very knowledgeable, lot
of experience. He said the following on his podcast that
he was quote told reliably by somebody who's involved, that
Lamar Jackson told the Baltimore Ravens in a conversation and
get DeAndre Hopkins and get Odell Beckham Junior and then

(02:04):
we can talk. And the club went back to them
and said, we can't get Hopkins and Beckham, we can't
afford both, but we'll get one. And then they went
out and they got Odell Beckham Junior. Now I'm not
saying that Mike Lombardi is making this up all right,
or that this is Mike Lombardi who's just spinning yarns
during a podcast, because he's fantastic. This may be just

(02:25):
some information that he got, But I love how everyone
is trying to dress this up like Lamar Jackson has
got all the leverage here.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
He doesn't.

Speaker 7 (02:38):
You want to know how I know because he was
given a non exclusive franchise tag and nobody's given him
a better offer. The Ravens played the game for a
long time with Lamar Jackson, and nobody else is gonna
say this are You're not gonna hear this in a
lot of places because everybody wants to pretty this up,

(03:00):
like the Ravens are doing Lamar Jackson a disservice and
they're being disrespectful because he used to be an MVP
and blah blah blah and everything else that you've heard.
And I love Lamar Jackson, maybe my favorite player in
the NFL. But it's not like the Ravens that haven't
offered him a good contract. It's not like the Ravens
haven't been over backwards to a trade up and draft

(03:24):
him when you had other people out there talking about
him needing to switch positions to have an NFL career,
or be building an entire offense around him, or see
making him the face of the franchise. All of these
things that have happened over the course of the past
couple of years, and everybody acknowledges, look, he probably deserves

(03:47):
a better contract than Deshaun Watson.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Everybody acknowledges that. We know that he's a better player,
He's done more. Everybody knows that.

Speaker 7 (03:58):
But now everyone's starting and to see that, Okay, there's
no real offer out there for Lamar Jackson. The Ravens
didn't want it to get to this point. And then
you get this other report that comes out that says, well,
Lamar Jackson's making demands and it was his demand that
gave Odell Beckham. Look, him and Odell Beckham Junior may

(04:18):
have gotten together, had a conversation. We're hanging out at
Live nightclub in South Beach after he signed the contract.
Whatever you want to call it, fact of the matter
is Odell Beckham Junior got a much better contract from
Baltimore than anybody else thought he was going to get.
There was reports he wanted twenty million and that some
of the offers were four million, and you're thinking, okay,

(04:39):
so split the difference, and he got more than that.
He ended up getting what fifteen million guaranteed eighteen with incentives.
It's a good deal for Odell Beckham Junior. Now, I
do think it would behoove him to have Lamar Jackson
as his quarterback.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
But this idea that after the fact.

Speaker 7 (04:59):
Everybody is said, well, it's Lamar Jackson who's calling the
shots here.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
No, it's not.

Speaker 7 (05:03):
If Lamar Jackson was calling the shots, he would have
gotten the contract. The Baltimore Ravens are doing everything they
can to try and let him know, Hey, you're our guy,
We love you. If you think this is going to
help the decision here to come back, and that's fine,
we'll bring in Odell Beckham Junior. We needed to upgrade

(05:26):
the position. We all acknowledge that you ready to come back.
Yet it's almost like he's kicking and screaming yet coming
back to whatever the same deal is going to be
that Baltimore's had there the entire time now, whether he
signs the non exclusive franchise tag for the thirty two
million in change or if the offer that was there

(05:47):
on the table before, which reportedly was three years, one
hundred and thirty three million dollars guaranteed injury guarantees to
one seventy five to two hundred million, whatever the case
may be, It's like, if he goes back to Baltimore
and takes that deal. It's all right, we don't have
to pretty this up like he has some fake leverage
with the organization. He's not getting two hundred and thirty

(06:10):
one million dollars guaranteed. It's not happening, not from Baltimore,
and at least not right now. So the idea that
we want to make this about him calling the shots
in Baltimore. If that were the case, he would have
gotten his contract on a long time ago.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
Jonas Knox, Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 7 (06:26):
All right, so let's talk about something in sports that
was better back in the day right now. I'm not
a firm believer that everything was better back in the day,
right I am a traditionalist, little bit old fashion. I
think the times were simpler back then, but I don't
I don't totally buy into everything was better back in

(06:46):
the day, right I mean back in you know, like
the seventeen hundreds, people used to have to wear wigs
because their hair was falling out because they had STDs.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
I'm not making that up. You can look into that.

Speaker 7 (07:00):
So I'm not saying everything and everybody had it better
back in the day. I like the idea that if
I want to run and go to the store. I
can hop in my car and I can go to
the store. I don't want to have to take horse
and buggy to get there and hope that there's not
a fly eating the horse's eye out while he's trying

(07:21):
to get to where I need to go. I don't
want to deal with that. I don't want to churn
butter in the front yard. I want to have a
washer dryer. I don't want to have to do clothes manually.
I like all that. Things weren't always better back in
the day. I can remember driving cross country to my
first radio job, and it was well before the iPhone,

(07:45):
or at least when I had the iPhone and all
the other map apps that you could find, whether it's
Ways or Google Maps or any of these other app
devices you use to get to where you want to go.
Try traveling cross country with an act usual physical roadmap.
You know what they don't tell you when they printed
that thing out two years in advance. Hey, there's an accident,

(08:08):
or we've got a fork knife truck in the middle
of the road and it's going to.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Delay your arrival time.

Speaker 7 (08:14):
It's kind of nice being able to look on your
phone and seeing, Okay, there's some traffic there, there's an accident.
I can navigate around that. So not everything was better
back in the day. But let me tell you what
was better back in the day the NBA playoffs. And
let me tell you why, because you cut to the chase,
you got to the point, you put people in a

(08:36):
pressure situation. You made people actually have to go out
there and figure it out in real time and not
sit around and delay stuff and procrastinate whether or not
you care. Why do I say that, Because the NBA
playoffs are underway. We've got Brooklyn, we've got Philly, and

(09:00):
you're probably excited, thinking, man, the NBA playoffs are finally here.
Now I can start to care. Nope, want to know
why seven game series?

Speaker 1 (09:10):
Well, what I mean?

Speaker 2 (09:11):
What about the play in tournament?

Speaker 7 (09:13):
Okay, the play in tournament lost me when you had
a team with the number ten next to themselves vying
for a playoff spot after they sucked majority of the season.
But at least the real NBA playoffs are here. No,
they're not, because back in the day, you play a
five game series, Oh, you better have your ass and

(09:33):
gear immediately or you're getting eliminated. Because I'm telling you
right now, don't be surprised. We've seen this many times before.
I can remember Orlando beating Toronto the year Toronto won
the NBA Finals. Orlando beat Toronto in the opening game
of their first round series. Do you think anybody was

(09:54):
worried about Orlando beating Toronto in that series? I don't
even know if they wont another game, don't care. Toronto
went on to win an NBA championship that year. But
because you give people so much wiggle room, where's the
incentive if you're down by twenty with eight minutes to
go in the fourth quarter to try and step on

(10:15):
the gas and get back into a game. There is none.
We'll get him next game. Yeah, but I mean it's
a playoff game. Everybody keeps telling me the playoffs are
the real deal. This is when the NBA matters most.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
No.

Speaker 7 (10:28):
No, it's a seven game series. We've got plenty of time.
How many blowouts do we have to see in a
seven game series, especially in the first round of the
postseason and in the playoffs, before we realize they had
it better back in the day. In a five game series,
you lose that first game and you're the higher seed.

(10:48):
All of a sudden, things get real in a hurry,
because if you go down to nil, if you're down
two zip in an NBA playoff series, in a five
game series, you do the math.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Ain't a lot of room to work with. You got
to figure it out.

Speaker 7 (11:07):
So we can get excited about the NBA Playoffs being
here and all the games that are coming up later
on today and all the games that are coming up tomorrow.
And look, I'm not trying to ask for too much.
I'm willing to compromise. You can have your gimmicky play
in tournament, you can do your little n season tournament,
whatever that fiasco is going to turn into next year.

(11:29):
You can do all the other things you want. All
I'm asking for is this because I prefer a three
game series. If we're gonna be honest here, I would
like a three game series. I think that would be
more fun for everybody, because you lose one game all
of a sudden, you're really on thin ice and nobody
knows whether or not you're gonna advance. But I'm willing
to compromise. If you want to have a seven game

(11:49):
series the rest of the way, that's fine. Just bring
back the five game series. Put some of these higher
seeds in a pressurized situation, and if they are the
better team, they're not gonna mail it in. We cut
to the chase right off the bat. If some team
sucks and they're not worthy, you don't have to wait

(12:10):
an extra game to see them get eliminated. Let's speed
this thing up. I acknowledge it's probably not gonna happen
because there's too much money, there's too much revenue involved.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
But for the sake of the game, for the sake of.

Speaker 7 (12:22):
The entertainment, let's just all acknowledge the fact that in
this one moment in time, in this one case, in
this one situation, the NBA had it better back in
the day. Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio, get me on
Twitter at the Jonas Knox at the Jonas Knox, We're
gonna hang out with you as always till four pm
Eastern time, one o'clock Pacific, and we're.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
Gonna have the usuals.

Speaker 7 (12:42):
We've got another edition of the Scraps, We've got due
you care coming up later on this hour. It's all yours,
a two hour of stravaganza, a little bit of grab
ass here for you on a Saturday. But we do
have ourselves a very bitter, bitter person in the NFL.
I'll tell you who that is next, Jonas Knox, Fox

(13:02):
Sports Radio, coming up in a little over ten minutes
from now from the tirerac dot Com studios. There's somebody
in the National Football League who, upon further review, really
had no chance whatsoever at success, no chance whatsoever at success.
We will get into that for you here again a

(13:24):
little over ten minutes from now here on FSR SO.
One of the big stories in the National Football League
this week was that the story that everybody was waiting
to end the Washington Commanders, or if you listen to
two Pros and a Cup of Joe during the week,
the Washington Commandos. They are now no longer in possession

(13:46):
of Dan Snyder, or at least on the verge, because
Josh Harris and a group I believe he owns the
seventy six Ers, the New Jersey Devils, he owns the
Crystal Palace English Premier League team.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
It's him and some others that are involved.

Speaker 7 (14:03):
Also, Magic Johnson is involved in the purchase of the
Washington Commanders. No word yet as to whether or not,
as Magic predicted years ago. Lonzo Balls Jersey is being
raised to the rafters at the Staples Center or Theecrypto
dot Com slash org Center, whatever they're calling it now
in downtown LA. But point being, they are now the

(14:24):
group reportedly that is going to purchase the Washington Commanders
for six point oh five billion dollars. Now, if you're
wondering what the point oh five billion is, that's fifty million.
It's so much money that fifty million dollars gets the

(14:44):
point oh five denomination next to it. That's how much
money that is. And so you're thinking everybody should be happy.
Everybody in the NFL should be happy. I mean, you
know who's really happy in the NFL probably Roger Goodell.
They're probably thrilled that this is done with. You want

(15:06):
to know why, because Dan Snyder knows where every single
body's buried.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
There's a reason.

Speaker 7 (15:12):
Why Dan Snyder wasn't kicked out of the league a
long time ago, when they had plenty of grounds to
do it. They had a lot of opportunity and a
lot of chances. They had everything they needed to make
the move to get Dan Snyder out of the NFL.
I mean, we've seen it happen Jerry Richardson in the
Carolina Panthers, Donald Sterling and the Clippers. The sun's changed.

(15:34):
Like you can forcefully take a team away from somebody,
you can, And they had plenty of opportunities and plenty
of reasons, and legitimate ones at that if you believe
the reports to get rid of Dan Snyder a long
time ago. But it didn't happen because Dan Snyder has

(15:57):
got dirt on everybody. Dan Sneyder knows where every single
body's buried. He knows where the bodies clothes are burned at.
He knows where the weapon was used to dispose of
the body.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
Like he knows, he knows everything. He's got it all.

Speaker 7 (16:14):
That's why he was around for as long as he was.
So you would think now that we've gotten rid of him,
everybody should be happy. Everybody should be thrilled. He's gone.
He's out of our hair. We never have to worry
about Dan Snyder again, except for Jeff Bezos because there's
a report from the Washington Post that says owners are

(16:41):
optimistic that the sale will be approved. But there's one
unnamed source who calls the six point zero five billion
dollar price tag quote a little disappointing end quote. Now
you're at you're probably thinking the same thing I'm thinking.
How could going from an eight hundred million dollar purchase,

(17:04):
which is what Dan Snyder bought the team for, to
a six point zero five billion dollar sale? How could
anybody be a little bit disappointed by that? The Broncos
who have won multiple Super Bowls, who are just in
a Super Bowl a few years back, in a couple
of Super Bowls. As a matter of fact, the Denver
Broncos just sold for what four and a half billion?

Speaker 2 (17:28):
The Commanders, who have.

Speaker 7 (17:30):
Been a diaper fire for two plus decades, just went
for six point oh five billion. Why would anybody talking
to the Washington Post call it a little bit disappointing?
And then you look into it and you go, oh,
that's right. Jeff Bezos owns the Washington Post. Now it

(17:50):
all makes sense. And Jeff Bezos was basically iced out
of the purchase of the Washington Commanders. And why because
the Washington Post has been doing deep dives and investigative
reports on Dan Snyder and the football team for years
and years and years. Every time there was some sort

(18:14):
of scandal, there's some sort of issue It was a
long form diatribe on how awful Dan Snyder is, and
Jeff Bezos probably thought to himself, if I can force
this guy out.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
I loved own an NFL team.

Speaker 7 (18:29):
He owns everything else, for God's sakes, the guy's got Amazon.
He's got a space shuttle in the shape of a
crank that goes that we call the crank Shuttle.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
It goes up into space.

Speaker 7 (18:42):
It makes people believe they're actually going up into space,
like all of a sudden, Jeff Bezos can fly to space. Okay,
all right, believe what you want to believe. You know
what I believe. I think Jeff Bezos gets a bunch
of people to pay a bunch of money to go
on the crank shuttle and they go up into some
soundst that was probably the old Captain e O ride
at Disneyland. That's what I believe. But again, if you

(19:05):
want to pretend you're going up to space, everybody do
what you gotta do.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
That's fine. But Bezos he owns everything. He's got everything
he wants.

Speaker 7 (19:15):
When's the last time you took a trip around the
block and didn't see an Amazon truck?

Speaker 2 (19:23):
It's every day.

Speaker 7 (19:24):
When's the last time you didn't see an Amazon package
on the front of somebody's doorstep. I take my son
on a walk every day to get him to go
to sleep. You know what I see every single day?
Amazon truck. Want to know why because it keeps him
up kids obsessed with trash trucks. All he wants to
do is see trash trucks every day. And when it's

(19:44):
not trash day, he sees an Amazon van and he
starts asking him to honk the horn and they do it,
and he stays awake, all because of Jeff Bezos. But
then the Washington Post comes out with this quote unquote
source that says, quote unquot quote, the price tag is
a little disappointing. No, it's not. You're just pissed you
got iced out, That's all it is. They're bitter because they're.

Speaker 8 (20:09):
The ones that aren't purchasing the Washington Commanders six point
zero five billion for one of the worst run organizations
in recent sports history.

Speaker 2 (20:21):
I mean, those are just facts, Like do.

Speaker 7 (20:25):
You want to know what the Washington Commander's record is
under Dan Snyder since he took over. Snyder took over
the team in nineteen ninety nine. That's when he bought
the team eight hundred million dollars, right, So let's let's
do the math here, all right, And again this I
don't like to give out a lot of numbers on
the radio because it's confusing, But I think I can

(20:45):
sum this up to where you would understand and I
would understand what exactly has happened with this organization the
past almost quarter century.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
All right, So here we go.

Speaker 7 (20:58):
Dan Snyder bought the team in nineteen ninety nine for
eight hundred million dollars. Since that time, they're fifty six
games under five hundred and they've got two playoff wins
and he just sold them for six point zero five billion.

(21:18):
How the f could anybody be disappointed at the purchase price?

Speaker 2 (21:23):
That's the god.

Speaker 7 (21:25):
That's like buying a new car, flipping it three times,
taking it to Monster Jam, having gravedigger take a dump
on it in the middle of Angels Stadium in southern California,
and then taking it back to the lot and they
give you quadruple what you paid for it when you left.

(21:46):
Dan Snyder just did that, and somebody's calling it disappointing.
Bezos is bitter. There's probably a lot of other people
that are bitter about it. But you know who's not
bitter the NFL and everybody who Dan Snyder at Dirt
On because finally it appears they've rid themselves of the
one guy who can out all of them. The fact

(22:08):
that anybody would call this disappointing is laughable. Jonas Knox
Fox Sports Radio, get me on Twitter at the Jonas
Knox at the Jonas Knox on Twitter and you can
hang out with us as always on the iHeartRadio app.
All right, it's coming up next. Somebody, upon further review
in the National Football League had no chance whatsoever. We
will tell you who that is coming up here shortly.

(22:29):
But for all the latest from around the world of sports.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
Ladies and gentlemen. When you hear that music, only mean
one thing that it's MONSI but like.

Speaker 9 (22:41):
You to take you over it, like you? Yes?

Speaker 1 (22:49):
What up?

Speaker 9 (22:50):
What's up?

Speaker 2 (22:51):
How are you just hanging out? That's nice talking about
bitter people in the NFL.

Speaker 9 (22:57):
Yeah, No, I like I like that. I'm gonna I'm
annoyed right now.

Speaker 10 (23:00):
My mother just sent me a picture of somebody that
parked their car in front of my parents driveway, blocking
their garage.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
Oh that's an a home.

Speaker 10 (23:11):
Isn't that She just sent me a picture and I
was like, Mom, called the sheriff right now, and she
was like, well, you know, I don't need to take
the car out, Mom, you got and stop it.

Speaker 7 (23:20):
Okay, Well, first of all, do you think calling the
sheriff is a bit much? I mean to get a
call like a tow truck company and have them take
it away.

Speaker 9 (23:27):
No, because then I think my mom would have to pay.

Speaker 7 (23:31):
No, that's true. Yeah, how does that work? There's because
that is that illegally parked? If you park somebody's driveway?

Speaker 10 (23:39):
Yeah, because what if I try to get out and
I can't get out?

Speaker 9 (23:43):
Yeah, you can't block my driveway.

Speaker 7 (23:45):
But but but is it considered illegal if there's no
red marking on the curb?

Speaker 2 (23:50):
Because if it's it's.

Speaker 9 (23:51):
Not on the curb, it's on like the you know the.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
Yeah, will you pull out of the drive right?

Speaker 10 (23:56):
Yeah, it is a corner house and there's no space
to park in for it's a stop sign.

Speaker 2 (24:01):
Yeah, I would call the police.

Speaker 9 (24:03):
I just was like, the audacity, Well.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
It's it's just I mean, for anything else than the
fact it's.

Speaker 9 (24:08):
Rude one hundred percent? Why?

Speaker 10 (24:10):
And then my parents live in like a neighborhood where
there's this a park across the street. So there's baseball
going on right now for the kids, but there's plenty
of parking.

Speaker 9 (24:18):
You just have to walk your legs, that's it. Yeah,
your legs, yes, Like, come on, you just gotta walk.

Speaker 10 (24:24):
Are you that lazy that you block someone's driveway. I
don't know who it is, but I hope they're tripping
on their face right now wherever they're at. Geez, that's
that's that is nothing about they all right?

Speaker 9 (24:37):
All rights?

Speaker 2 (24:39):
Me?

Speaker 9 (24:39):
Oh no, no, no, it's a good thing. I'm not there.
It's a good thing. I'm not there waiting for those
people at the car. Okay, yes, no, that's rude. Okay.
NBA playoffs are officially here, yay. And it's Philadelphia. Who
is up on Brooklyn right now.

Speaker 10 (24:54):
Seventy to sixty one is the score early in the
third quarter.

Speaker 9 (24:58):
James Harden he's got seventeen points, six is SIS.

Speaker 10 (25:01):
MVP candidate Joe mb thirteen points, two rebounds.

Speaker 9 (25:05):
But it's been it's been close.

Speaker 10 (25:07):
I've been I'm surprised at how close it's been, probably
because mckel Bridges has twenty three points and four rebounds
for Brooklyn, but I'm surprised at how close it is.
It's also Jackie Robinson Day in Major Baseball. Everybody's wearing
forty two, no last name on the jersey. It's a
tough day for everybody working in the press box because
everybody looks the same.

Speaker 2 (25:27):
But right, yeah, I didn't think about that.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
You're here.

Speaker 10 (25:30):
Yeah, everybody looks the same, right, especially somebody like the Yankees.

Speaker 9 (25:34):
You know, they all have the same haircut. They all like.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
Look no facial facial from Afar.

Speaker 9 (25:40):
Yeah, from far away. So it's a tough day for
anybody working in the press.

Speaker 10 (25:44):
But the Yankees right now are beating the Twins four zero,
top of the six inning. The Giants are up on
the Tigers in Detroit sixty two bottom of the fifth inning.
Oriols and White Sox scoreless bottom of the second, and
the Pirates and the Cardinals already started scoring.

Speaker 9 (25:57):
But Saint Louis is up two to one. They're about
to start the second inning on the ice.

Speaker 10 (26:01):
The Columbus Blue Jackets did not do so one no
this season. They ended in last place in the Eastern Conference.

Speaker 9 (26:08):
So what do you do?

Speaker 10 (26:09):
You fired the head coach and that's what they did.
They fired Brad Larson.

Speaker 9 (26:11):
After two years. Back to you, Jonas.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
Thanks Monty.

Speaker 7 (26:15):
By the way, how soon before your mom does call
the cops?

Speaker 9 (26:19):
No, I think did? I think Shdy did? Yeah, because
I told her to.

Speaker 7 (26:23):
Can we get an update on when they actually come
and tow the car away?

Speaker 9 (26:27):
Yes, I would keep you updated. Yes, I told her
to keep me updated.

Speaker 10 (26:30):
All right, So this is a developing situation, developing story,
breaking news out of the Bolanos household.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
This is wonderful.

Speaker 7 (26:37):
Let's go live to our I have a thought about
tow trucks insider, Iowa Sam for the latest.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
Sam, you got it that that car has got to go.
I mean that's that is not only that's you're inconvenient.
That is yeah, you're blocking. Oh no, it's not rich,
it's beyond rude. It's it's yeah, it's an inconvenience. And
so yeah, that that that person should know better.

Speaker 9 (26:57):
That's thousand.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
Only the owner of the house can park in front
of the driveway like.

Speaker 9 (27:01):
That, right, if you know that nobody's gonna get out.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
No, that's insane. That person's an idiot and they're gonna
find they're gonna have a very rude awakening here shortly.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
I don't, man, I don't even like doing that.

Speaker 7 (27:11):
When I go see the in laws and they say, oh,
just pull in here, I'm like, what if somebody's gotta leave?

Speaker 2 (27:16):
Like, I don't even like doing it then?

Speaker 7 (27:18):
And those are those are people I'm like kind of
related to, like you, they don't even know your mom,
and they're just like, now this will work.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
Wow, Yeah, you gotta you, gotta, you gotta take care
of that.

Speaker 9 (27:30):
They're lucky. I'm not there, Like, are you dense?

Speaker 3 (27:32):
You're parked in front of a driveway right.

Speaker 9 (27:34):
I would be slashing tires right now.

Speaker 3 (27:36):
Oh come on, come on, hold at the owner's expense,
goodbye car?

Speaker 9 (27:41):
Yeah for real?

Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, that's awful. Well listen again, developing situation here. We
will uh, we will give you.

Speaker 7 (27:47):
An update as to when the police have arrived at
the Bolagos mansion to take away the car that illegally
parked in front of the driveway.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
Yes, more on this to come.

Speaker 7 (27:58):
It is Jonas Knox Fox Sports, by the way, coming
up in We'll call it about twelve minutes from now.
If you are into really positive, upbeat stories in the
world of sports, if you want to feel great on
a Saturday, and you want to feel great about some
of the stories you've been force fed over the past
week in the world of sports and beyond, well do
you cares coming up here in about twelve minutes, and

(28:19):
that's probably not the one for you, but stick around
because we will have some information to pass out about
an annual extravaganza that to me is one of the
weirdest things that happens every single year. So we'll get
into that for you. But let me just say this,
there are some rumblings near the top of the NFL
Draft that we could see a major change very very soon.

(28:43):
Apparently the Houston Texans are sitting at number two and
the Houston Texans could be making some changes. Now you're thinking, okay, well,
they're probably going to draft a quarterback and the Houston
Texans are going to go in that direction.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
They're going to start this thing over. They've got to Meeka.

Speaker 7 (28:57):
Ryan's it's a brand new era of Houston Texans football.
The problem is they might be doing it with a
brand new GM right after the draft, because there are
reports out that are picking a momentum picking up some
steam that Nick Cassario, the general manager, of the Houston
Texans could be out after the draft and actually could
be headed on his way back to New England, and

(29:18):
that the assistant general manager with the forty nine ers
would be taking over. Obviously he's familiar with Demiko Ryans,
who was the DC there, so on and so forth.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Here's the one thing I would say.

Speaker 7 (29:29):
And also there some speculation maybe the Texans don't take
a quarterback if Bryce Young isn't there, because as we've
talked about, it looked like CJ. Stroud was the pick.
I told everybody CJ. Stroud would be the pick at
number one because the odds indicated so much. And now
the odds have completely gone the other direction, and now
Bryce Young's the overwhelming favorite to go number one to
the Carolina Panthers. So we're gonna have to do major

(29:50):
cleanup in the podcast to try and in fact I
might even record something after the show and make it
seem like in real time. Three or four weeks ago,
I said that Bryce Young would be the pick, just
so I don't get my balls broken on social media
about it. But point being, if you're the Houston Texans,
can you at least acknowledge that Nick Cassario had no

(30:11):
chance whatsoever as success none And you want to know why,
because everybody's favorite weirdo, Deshaun Watson decided right after he
signed a contract with the Houston Texans and was emotionally
crying and sobbing about how much it changed his life
and how appreciative he was or the organization and everything

(30:33):
they did, even after they traded away DeAndre Hopkins, even
though people try and rewrite history and say that's why.
Deshaun Watson was upset after all of that and everything
that he was doing off the field that some people
around there kind of had an inkling about, but everybody
had his back, and after all that, he decided, I

(30:53):
don't want to play here anymore and basically just sat
out and held out for an entire season while getting
and Nick Cassario walked into that. And it wasn't like
Nick Assario knew all this when he took the job.
Nick Cassario thought, Okay, I've got a franchise quarterback. I've
got a team in a very winnable division. If you

(31:16):
give me a franchise quarterback, I can figure out a
way to build around him. And instead he was offered
up a crap bag to have to deal with the
second he got to Houston. So I just hope when
Cassario leaves the Houston Texans, which apparently is going to
happen in the next couple of weeks, and maybe he
goes back to New England, I hope people actually acknowledge

(31:37):
that the Nick Cassario era in Houston wasn't a disaster
because of Nick Cassario. He walked into an absolute joke.
He walked into a quarterback throwing a tantrum. He walked
into a quarterback refusing to play. Then he walked into
a quarterback who had a whole lot of issues off
the field. That's not on Nick Cassario. That's on the

(31:57):
Houston Texans and everything they got going on. Jonas Knox

We're going to dive into what goes on in the

Speaker 7 (32:54):
Jonas Knox, Fox Sports Radio coming up top of x dow,
who are about fifteen minutes from now from the tiraq
dot com studios. I'm no longer going to take the bait,
all right. There's some people out there that are trying
to catch you, all right. They're trying to put some
bait out there. They're hoping you fall in it. They're
hoping you step in the trap. I'm not going to

(33:16):
do it. I refuse to do it. I'm taking a
stand against doing this. It's in regards to a major
NFL storyline. So we will get into that for you again.
A little over fifteen minutes from now on FSR, we
are going to get to another edition of Do You Care?

Speaker 2 (33:31):
Coming up here just a moment.

Speaker 7 (33:33):
I do want to say this, man, some of these people,
ah god, some of these people in sports radio and
sports TV and in sports media. You guys got to
get a grip, dude, like some of the egos have
run them up, and it is way too much.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
It is way over the top.

Speaker 7 (33:58):
It is look at me, look at me, Me, me,
me III.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
It's way too much.

Speaker 7 (34:04):
All right, try a bit a little bit of humility here, Okay,
I have a little bit of humility. Stop talking about
yourself and the third person, all right, Stop stop quoting yourself,
knock it off, and start being a little bit more humble.
And that is how we feel here on the Jonas
Knox Show. It's time for Do You Care.

Speaker 12 (34:27):
There are so many stories in the world of sports,
and most of them are a complete waste of time.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
DMZ reports.

Speaker 12 (34:34):
Let's get kinky. Here's some of the big stories from
the last week. But Jonas The real question is do
you care?

Speaker 7 (34:42):
And for that we turn it over to our executive producer,
Ryan Berschinger, who's been punished, he's been reprimanded, and he's
been forced to work this show.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
Yeah, dude, Bush, what do we got?

Speaker 13 (34:54):
I was quoting myself too much. I apologize, Jonas. Uh
So the Lakers were kicking off here with the Lakers
locked in the seventh seed with their play in tournament win, Jonas,
do you care?

Speaker 2 (35:05):
Nope, don't, absolutely not tired of it.

Speaker 7 (35:09):
Look, I get why the NBA is really happy that
the Lakers are in the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (35:13):
I get it.

Speaker 7 (35:14):
They're good for the NBA makes all the sense in
the world. They're good for ratings, good for storylines. But
they have This is one of those been force fed
and jammed down your throats all year long, and so
it takes them a play in game to get into
the postseason. And then in that playing game, it was
one of the ugliest, most entertaining basketball games I've ever seen.

(35:37):
Minnesota was under man. They had two guys who liked
to punch things. One guy's a teammate, the other's a
wall and his way out of a game. They're under man.
The Lakers win them. They did everything they could to
try and give that game away, whether it was getting
inbound passes stolen, fouling Mike Conley on a three point
shot that ended up tying the game with the line,
all of that, and then we're supposed to jump for

(35:58):
joy and everybody celebrates like the confetti's gonna drop, like
they just want an NBA Finals in the late eighties.
Not into it, tired of it being force fed and
jammed down my throat.

Speaker 13 (36:08):
Next, Zion Williamson missed the play in game despite being
seen throwing down dunks in pregame warmups. Jonas, do you care?

Speaker 5 (36:16):
Yes?

Speaker 7 (36:16):
And here's why I love Zion Williamson. I'm happy he
got paid. I think he's been fat shamed, which bothers
me by a lot of people. Everybody's taking a shot
at him, and everybody's made jokes about his weight gain
and all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
Not into that.

Speaker 7 (36:32):
I feel that that feels like we're going way overboard.
But man, if you come out and you say I'm
not ready, and this leads me to the talking and
third person stuff, I'm not ready to come back until
I'm Zion again. And did it multiple times over and
then before the playoff game says I'm physically ready to go,

(36:54):
but won't return until I'm Zion, And then he's doing
windmill dunks before a basically a do or Dice situation
for the New Orleans Pelicans. To me, that would not
land well if I were a teammate of Ion, and
I'd want to have a conversation about it.

Speaker 13 (37:08):
Next, the Aaron Rodgers trade is still not done. Jonas,
do you care?

Speaker 1 (37:13):
No?

Speaker 7 (37:14):
Oh well, all I'm asking for is for it to
not happen, and it's not because I think that you know,
it wouldn't be good for the Jets and another you know,
Pro Bowl slash, all pro slash, Hall of Fame quarterback
going to the AFC. What bothers me about it and
what annoys me about this whole Aaron Rodgers situation is

(37:36):
that it could happen. All I wanted is for it
to not happen, just so Jets fans got to come
crawling back to Zach Wilson and try and make it
work for another year.

Speaker 2 (37:44):
Next.

Speaker 13 (37:45):
Tamar de Rozan's daughter stole the spotlight and Wednesday Night's
playing game as she she could be heard screaming every
time the Raptors took a free throw. Oh gods, do
you care?

Speaker 2 (37:56):
Yes, I do. I love it.

Speaker 7 (37:58):
I like the fact that the term helicopter parent was
taken over for a day to helicopter daughter. Like I
think that is phenomenal. That she was out there having
a good time supporting her dad. It's a great story.
And then of course you find out now she received
online threats and people were talking trash tour. It's a
little Yeah, it's a lot. Listen, I get it. I

(38:20):
get it.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
That is a lot.

Speaker 7 (38:22):
That sounds like, you know, like somebody getting hit on
a highway like that.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
That just sounds like like a lot.

Speaker 7 (38:30):
That sounds like a moose trying to cross the street
in Canada and a Tim Horton's truck mows it over
Like that just sounds like a lot.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
I get all that.

Speaker 7 (38:41):
But the fact that she's getting threats online, get a grip, people,
She's just having some fun supporting her dad.

Speaker 13 (38:46):
Next, John Morant is countersuing the seventeen year old that
he beat up last year, claiming claiming that the teenager
harmed his reputation, which hurt his all NBA chances and
put Moran's NBA career at risk by throwing basketball at
his head. Jonas, do you care?

Speaker 2 (39:02):
Yes, look I am. I'm supporting Ja Moran here.

Speaker 7 (39:07):
Now, the guy went to a strip club, spend fifty
thousand dollars for you know, a basket of fries, an
onion ring tower, and then a lap dance. All that's
a lot. And I know he flashed a handcannon on
snapface or something like that that got people up in
arms and he had to go take time away. But look,
you gotta be a more polite house guest, especially if

(39:29):
you're a high schooler. When I was in high school,
if I went over to an NBA player's house, I
would be honored. What a privilege. You know what I
wouldn't do. I wouldn't threaten the guy. I wouldn't tell
him I was gonna shoot his house up like fireworks
after the fact, or go threaten him on Snapchat? And
who is this high school kid, Andre the Giant? This
must be the most intimidating teenager in the history of mankind.

(39:51):
I support Ja Moran here.

Speaker 13 (39:53):
Next weekend one of Coachella is underway and Blink one

Speaker 7 (42:34):

(43:18):
been seeing this one team in the NFL pop up
in the news a bunch this offseason, and some of
it at least initially made some sense and was warranted.
That team is the New England Patriots, because everybody's painting
the Patriots out with this real negative brush, you know,

(43:41):
like everybody's building up all the dysfunction in New England,
all the bad blood between Mac Jones and Bill Belichick
and Bailey Zappi, and they're not the same without Tom
Brady and Tom Brady carried Belichick and all that, and
this is more you know, well what, so let's just
go ahead, Let's actually explain what the problem is, and

(44:02):
then let's really explain what the problem is. The problem
was just last year. That's it. That was the issue.
That was the problem with the New England Patriots just
last year. Right, The New England Patriots last year had
a disappointing season. And the reason it was disappointing is because, yeah,

(44:26):
Belichick probably made a mistake. Okay, he made a little
bit of a mistake. He went out there and decided
he was gonna After Josh McDaniels left, Matt Patricia was
brought in and Joe Judge was brought in. They didn't
really have an offensive coordinator. It was very confusing, and
so mac Jones was struggling and not happy about it,
and so mac Jones reached out to members of the

(44:48):
Alabama coaching staff to talk about it.

Speaker 2 (44:50):
Apparently that rubbed Belichick the wrong way.

Speaker 7 (44:52):
He was upset about it and didn't like that, and
so then Belichick and him had a little bit of
a back and full and then Bailey Zappy was brought
in and played a little bit, but then mac Jones
came back in. It was a down year for sure,
and everybody knows that a little bit of a down year.
But also the reason why it was a down year

(45:14):
is because they just made the playoffs the year before.
It's not like this is a bad football team who
got worse than a season. They were a playoff team
the year before and they took a step back in
year two.

Speaker 2 (45:30):
We see that.

Speaker 7 (45:31):
All over the NFL every year. Do you really think
the same teams that made the playoffs this year are
going to be the same teams that make the playoffs
next year? How confident are you that the Giants are
going to be a playoff team next year? And they
won a playoff game. Because I'm not and the betting
markets all feel the same way. A heavy favorite to

(45:55):
not make the playoffs next year are the New York Giants.
So are we going to give the science the same
amount of hate and the same amount of criticism and
critique that we gave the Patriots after this disappointing season, which,
by the way, was so disappointing. They were a game
under five hundred. Like, that's how disappointing it was, with

(46:17):
injuries and issues all.

Speaker 2 (46:19):
The other game under five hundred.

Speaker 7 (46:21):
But yet everybody makes it out like they're one of
the most dysfunctional organizations in the NFL. You got Belichick,
it's passed his time, and you're even seeing people say, well,
Belichick only cares about individual achievements because he's on the
verge of potentially breaking Don Shull's all time wins record, etc.
Like all the other things that come along with it.

(46:41):
That is how the Patriots are being discussed. And I
was buying into it, like I'm reading into all the
Oh man, you know, did Belichick really shop Mac Jones
this offseason? Did he really reach out to teams and say, hey,
would anybody be interested in trading for mac Jones, and
is Bailey Zappy going to actually be the guy? And

(47:02):
could they go out and get Lamar Jackson and man
Belichick's not the same without Tom Brady and man tom Brady.

Speaker 2 (47:10):
And then I caught.

Speaker 7 (47:10):
Myself and I thought, well, why did they hire Bill
O'Brien if things were so bad between Belichick and mac Jones?
Because I don't know if you know this or not,
but the coaching staff that mac Jones reached out to
when he had questions about what was happening, Bill O'Brien
was a part of. So if Belichick was really upset

(47:33):
at mac Jones and really had to trade him, and
he really felt betrayed and was really bothered by the
whole situation, why would he go out and bring a
member of the coaching staff that mac Jones reached out
to and hire him as offensive coordinator. In fact, Belichick
doing that tells me that Belichick is at least being

(47:56):
a little bit accountable for what happened last year, Like,
hey know, maybe it was a mistake to try and
you know, uh Nickel and dime the offensive coordinator position
and not really say who was the guy and who
was going to get hired and Bill O'Brien comes in
and he's the new OC. So when you start to

(48:16):
add that into the mix, a lot of the stuff
that we've bought into and myself included, doesn't really make sense, like, well,
it's the demise of the Patriots really because they didn't
win a Super Bowl last year. I mean, friendly reminder,
do you remember what New England was Tom Brady's final year?

Speaker 2 (48:38):
They were one and done.

Speaker 7 (48:41):
And Brady was gone two years later. They were the
same exact result with mac Jones. But everybody makes it
seem because Brady went on to Tampa Bay and won
a Super Bowl. Look, Brady played great for the Bucks.
He was great the year before he retired, but he
also had a lot more around him in Tampa Bay.
I'm not saying the Patriots wouldn't have been better off

(49:02):
keeping Tom Brady, but I don't know that they would
have been able to add the pieces around him. He
was ready to move on. Belichick was ready to move on.
Congratulations he won a Super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (49:11):
Good for him.

Speaker 7 (49:12):
But this idea that there's doom and gloom in New
England and look, they're in a really tough division. Aaron
Rodgers gets to the Jets, it makes it even tougher.
But I don't look at New England as this disaster
everybody makes it out to be. All the game has
passed Bill Belichick by why because they were a game
under five hundred last year. He made a mistake in

(49:34):
his hiring process. Everybody acknowledges that. He acknowledges that. That's
why he went out and fixed it. But I think
what the real issue is is that people have trauma,
and they've got trauma because a lot of people out
there that cover the NFL that are closet fanboys and

(49:54):
fangirls for teams in the league. Even though they'll try
and tell y'all all, I'm unbiased here, call it right
down the middle. Now you're not you were a fan too, Okay,
You've still got biases. Everybody does. They're all still upset
because they've been a doormat for the Patriots and that

(50:15):
organization for two plus decades.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
That's why they're upset.

Speaker 7 (50:22):
So they're looking for anything to try and find a
flaw in New England. All Belichick's time has passed. It
has I don't know. They made the playoffs with a
rookie quarterback. Doesn't seem like his time has passed. I mean,
it's not like they were dealt you know, every ace
in the deck of cards. During the COVID year they

(50:43):
brought in Cam Newton, he was barely there. And if
not for a couple of games that were really close,
they're probably a playoff team that year too. Like we
can do the comp game and go, well, what about
Tom Brady? He went on and won a super Bowl, Like,
we can do that all we want, But the reality
is the Patriots have been a successful team for a

(51:06):
long time. Are they as good as they were years
ago when they were winning Super Bowls?

Speaker 14 (51:10):
No?

Speaker 7 (51:10):
Neither is Seattle. I mean Seattle went to the playoffs,
Like Seattle was there. Do we look at Seattle as
a disappointment because they didn't win a Super Bowl like
they did a few years back. No, we look at
them and go, hey man, they're on the rise, Like
that's a team that they're trying to figure it out

(51:31):
with a brand new quarterback and try Like Belichick's doing
the same thing and he's admitting I made a mistake.
But I think part of the problem is people can't
let go of the past. You can't let go of
the fact that they were dominating the league for as
long as they were. Everybody was sick of them. They
were tired of seeing the Patriots in the Super Bowl.

(51:52):
They were tired of every single year. You could write
it in pen that they were going to have a
first round by they were gonna have to play one game,
and then they were gonna go to a couple of
games and then go to the playoff, go to the
super Bowl. Like that level of dominance comes with a
level of hate and a level of bias. And I
think all of these stories about Mac Jones getting traded

(52:12):
and dysfunction and dissension amongst the Patriots players, all of
these reports that seemingly come out every single week. I
finally realized a few days ago, I'm not buying into
I'm done with it. Mac Jones is gonna come back
next year. He's gonna be the starting quarterback. Bill O'Brien's there.
You would assume that they would improve, and if they

(52:34):
improve on eight to nine, they could be a borderline
playoff team and then guess what you're gonna hear? Yeah,
but they still ever won a Super Bowl since Tom
Brady left. That's the way this works because people can't
get over the fact that they were the doormat of
this team for as long as they were and they're
still bitter about it. Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio. You

Toby says, wow, you mean he's not starting the show
gargling Aaron Rodgers bleeps, So again at the Jonas Knocks
on Twitter. That is, at the Jonas Knocks on Twitter.
If you have more positive feedback here on the show,
like David who just sent in Joni would be throttling

those god awful bleep Blink one eighty two songs, So again,

(54:53):
if you'd like to see the unedited versions of those,
or if you have more positive feedback, we can read
on the show here as we try and feel good
about ourselves on a Saturday. That is at the Jonas
Knox at the Jonas Knox on Twitter, and we will
get to those if we do not get fired beforehand.
All right, So coming up next here from the tire
rack dot Com studios, there's an NFL team, an NFL

(55:18):
team that has had success, that has won a Super
Bowl before, and this NFL team has a plan, but
the problem is their plans not going to work.

Speaker 2 (55:30):
I'll tell you who that is right here on FSR.

Speaker 6 (55:32):
He's originally from California. There are thousand opes.

Speaker 7 (55:37):
Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio coming up a little over
ten minutes from now from the tire rack dot Com studios,
we are going to have ourselves a major update a
situation involving a member of this show and the police department.

(55:58):
So we will get into that for you again a
little over ten minutes from now here on FSR. And
there's a little bit of a sports flavor to it
as well too, So stick around for that live on
location reports over a disturbance involving a member of this show,
So we will get into that for you. Let's can
we talk about this is my favorite team in the

(56:18):
NFL and this this is what makes this so funny.
So the Indianapolis Colts have come out and there's been
some speculation because they're sitting at number four. They're one
of those spots in the NFL Draft that nobody can
really figure out what's going to happen because everything is
predicated on two and three. We feel like Bryce Young

(56:39):
is going to be the pick at number one for
the Carolina Panthers, and then if you get to number
two with the Texans, everything's up in the air. As
we mentioned earlier, Nick Cassario could be out.

Speaker 2 (56:49):
After the draft. That's the reports that are there.

Speaker 7 (56:51):
They may not actually take a quarterback at number two
because they like Bryce Young, but they don't like CJ.
Strout as much, so they could go in a different direction.
And then you've got the Arizona Cardinals sitting at three.
The Arizona Cardinals are in full rebuild mode, yet they've
got a high priced quarterback. They've got a brand new
coach there, Buddha Baker's requested a trade now recently. That's
the report that's out. DeAndre Hopkins is going to be gone.

(57:14):
So you got all this stuff happening with the Arizona Cardinals.
They feel like a team that would want to trade back.
So you've got two teams ahead of you. One of
them's in your division, the other one in The Arizona
Cardinals are fluid, to say the least. And then you've
got the Indianapolis Colts. So the Colts are kind of

(57:35):
in no man's land because you don't know what the
hell's going to be there when it's your turn to pick.
You could see three quarterbacks go ahead of you. That's
not far fetched if Houston does stay at two and
a team like the Raiders jumps up to three, or
a team like Tennessee, who's hinted about, you know, maybe
being interested in one of these quarterbacks, jumps up to three.

(57:57):
All of a sudden, Bryce Young off the board.

Speaker 2 (58:00):
CJ.

Speaker 7 (58:01):
Stroud's off the board, and take your pick Will Levis
or Anthony Richardson, and you're left with whoever is sitting
there at number four. So he was like, Indianapolis is
kind of in this no man's land. You've got everybody
there saying, well, we've got a plan, Like Jim Merces
come out and said we've got a plan, Like like,
we have a plan in place when it comes to quarterback,
like you know, we what our plan is is, we

(58:24):
want to draft a guy and we want to go
in that direction. And you hear these this Stephen Holder,
who covers the Indianapolis Colts, has been doing it for
a long time, does a great job. And he's said,
you know, people there have been sworn to secrecy about
what their plan is in the NFL Draft, and I
can't help but laugh, because when is the last time

(58:45):
an Indianapolis Colts plan has worked? When they drafted Andrew Luck,
like that was the plan? Like, that's the last time
a plan has worked for the Indianapolis Colts, because if
you remember, Peyton Manning had this issue with his neck,
he missed the entire season, and then it was the
suck for Luck year. So they brought in Curtis Paynter

(59:09):
and some other quarterbacks and they kind of basically just
mailed it in. I mean, it's as close to a
tank job as you can see in the NFL, and
they ended up drafting number one overall. Peyton Manning left,
went to Denver, they took Andrew Luck, and they were
often running. That's the last time a plan has worked
for them? Because after that, when did it work? Was

(59:31):
the plan for the Indianapolis Colts for Andrew Luck to
retire on the sideline during a preseason game?

Speaker 2 (59:37):
Was that the plan?

Speaker 7 (59:39):
I'm just curious, like, how did that plan go? Middle
of a preseason game against the Bears and all of
a sudden, Andrew Luck's on the sideline talking to Jacoby
Brissett and Jacoby Brissett gives him this look like wait
what And then the report comes out from Adam Schefter
that Andrew Luck is retiring. And then he's getting booed
by people because they're starting to check their phones as

(01:00:02):
they're getting ready for a season. They're like, well, Andrew
Lux got a headset on and he's standing on the sideline.
He must be getting ready for the season. They don't
want to risk his health as they gets started for
the next year. Now he's done, and then announces his
retirement and then have some speech a day or two
days later or whatever it was, and he's all emotional
like that wasn't the plan, I can assure you. And

(01:00:25):
then they get into the season and they start Jakobe
Brissett and they're trying the best they can. Frank Reich's there,
everybody's scrambling. So it doesn't work with Jacobe Brissett. So
what's the next plan? Okay, here's the next plan. The
next plan is we're going to bring Philip Rivers in
at quarterback. And Philip Rivers comes in and he plays well,

(01:00:48):
but I'll bet the plan for Indianapolis wasn't that Philip
Rivers was going to walk away after a year. I'll
bet that probably wasn't the plan. Okay, So that plan
falls apart. Then they go out and they trade for
Carson Wentz. They give up some draft capital they want
to bring in Carson Wentz. Everybody assumes they're going to
fix Carson Wentz. He's done in Philadelphia. Frank Reich knows

(01:01:10):
Carson Wentz. Everything's fine. And what do they do. It's
a disaster. They lose the final game of the season
during a clown out in Jacksonville. You where you got
Jaguars fans so disgusted with the team that they're dressed
as clowns. They lose that game and they missed the postseason.

(01:01:32):
So that plan didn't work. Oh but don't worry. They've
got another plan. Their other plan is they're going to
bring in Matt Ryan. So Matt Ryan's going to be
the guy. He was MVP years ago, a great leader,
veteran of the league. Pair him up with Frank Reich.
He got the roster. Carson Wentz did not work. Thank god,
we've rid ourselves of Carson Wentz. But we'll go with

(01:01:53):
Matt Ryan. That'll be the plan. And that plan didn't
work either. Yep, that plan didn't work, all right, So
who's It's Frank Reich's fault. So let's fire Frank Reich.
He was the problem. We've got a better plan. We're
going to bring in Jeff's Saturday off a desk at
ESPN and have him take the job and then have
Dan Orlovsky leverage that job to try and get more

(01:02:15):
money from ESPN.

Speaker 2 (01:02:16):
Don't worry. That's going to be the plan.

Speaker 7 (01:02:19):
And that one didn't work either, and so Jeff's Saturday's gone,
and so now they've gone in a different direction and
you've got Shane Steich in. But don't worry. We've got
a plan this year. How many years in a row
does your plan not work before we have to not
take your plan seriously anymore.

Speaker 2 (01:02:34):
And don't even get me started.

Speaker 7 (01:02:36):
On what happened with Josh McDaniels years ago, because this
is the same organization that announced the hiring of a
guy who hadn't signed his contract yet and then got
upset because he went back on whatever handshake agreement they had.
Because Robert Kraft and Belichick pulled Josh McDaniels aside and said,
you want to go there, dude, here stick around a

(01:02:58):
little bit longer. We'll make you one of the I
has paid coordinators in the league. So forgive me if
I'm not ready to just take the Cults on their
word that their plan is in place and they know
what they're doing. To me, they're still sitting at number
four and they could be the odd man out when
it comes to the quarterback position. Although I will say this,
they do have Gardner Minshew and I love me some

(01:03:19):
Gardner Minshew, and Gardner Minshew has played well when given
an opportunity. So maybe that's the plan, and if so,
I actually hope that plan works. Jonas Knox, Fox Sports
Radio again, get me on Twitter at the Jonas Knox
at the Jonas Knox on Twitter. So we are going
to have a major update here coming up momentarily on
a situation involving a member of this show and the

(01:03:42):
police department. So we will get into that for you
here on Fox Sports Radio. But for all the latest
from around the world of sports, ladies and gentlemen, make some.

Speaker 2 (01:03:51):
Noise for the one for the only Monsey under.

Speaker 7 (01:04:04):
All right, mons, all right, everybody's got to know what
is the latest situation? Please explain if you could reset
for the new audience, what happened and why the police
were called.

Speaker 10 (01:04:13):
Yes, So, about an hour ago, my mother sent me
a picture of a car parked in front of my
parents driveway, totally blocking it from you know, beginning to end,
not even like.

Speaker 9 (01:04:24):
A little bit.

Speaker 10 (01:04:25):
Could you get a car in or out of my
parents driveway. So my parents live across the street from
a park. This happens all the time, especially when spaseball
season and all the kids are playing.

Speaker 9 (01:04:35):
There's tons of parking. People are just lazy.

Speaker 10 (01:04:38):
So I said, Mom called the sheriff right now, right now, she.

Speaker 9 (01:04:41):
Did, and she just called me.

Speaker 10 (01:04:42):
She said that two cops showed up and a tow
truck showed up, and that she was talking and chatting
with them and explaining that this happens all the time,
not as bad as this person did it today, and
that she looked in the van and she saw a
bunch of toys and a bunch of like kids stuff,
and that she felt bad and she's like, you know what,
don't tell the truck, don't tell the car.

Speaker 9 (01:05:02):
Please just leave them a fat ticket.

Speaker 10 (01:05:05):
And so my mom has a big heart.

Speaker 9 (01:05:09):
They did not tell the car. They left it a ticket.

Speaker 7 (01:05:12):
I mean look, I get her having a heart and
seeing the toys in the back seat and all that,
but you know, those kids gotta learn you can't just
park wherever you want to park right and and hopefully
it would cost them some toys, like maybe somebody where
you take them to the tow truck yard and all
of a sudden, the person working the front gate at
the yard goes, you know what, I would love that
Cocomela and doll. I'm gonna swipe that from the back seat,

(01:05:33):
like ah man.

Speaker 10 (01:05:34):
She's like, She's like, I would just feel bad. You know,
for baseball they always carry all those things with them,
and imagine they show up with like a wagon full
of stuff and their car's not here.

Speaker 9 (01:05:46):
I don't want them to experience that. And I was like, Mommy,
I know.

Speaker 7 (01:05:50):
A Mama Belanos, you know what goes You know what
goes better than all those toys in a wagon, A
nice parking ticket and that radio flyer when they go
to baseball practice next time, come on, let's go live
to our I have the thoughts on Mama Bolanos insight
or Iowa sample the later Sam.

Speaker 3 (01:06:06):
I think Mama struck like the right key here. I
think the person who did that, they're going to learn
their lesson. They're like, oh, I wasn't even thinking I
parked in front of a driveway. Now I got to
pay two hundred and fifty dollars ticket and then but
it's it's still going to be cheaper than having to
get your car out of a toe lot and trying
to figure out where your car is to begin with.
So I think that Mama Bolanos, she she had she

(01:06:27):
has compassion, but she also stands for her own her
she stands up for herself.

Speaker 2 (01:06:32):
Well, here's what.

Speaker 7 (01:06:35):
This is what we've established though, this is where the
big differences between Mama Bolangos and Mancy Belog. Yeah, Lancy
would not only call the cops, she would go tis
firing hert TikTok video about it. She honk the horn
of the tow truck. Is that we're taking it away? Oh,
you would celebrate being towed away and then into a

(01:06:56):
TikTok and the laughing devil emotions.

Speaker 1 (01:06:59):
Yes.

Speaker 10 (01:07:02):
And then this person kind of screwed another person over
who had also parked illegally across the street in front
of a fire hydrant.

Speaker 9 (01:07:09):
So that person got a ticket too.

Speaker 7 (01:07:11):
So it's just I mean, look, listen, learn your lesson
to do the time. Man, I was hoping we were
gonna have sirens in the back.

Speaker 4 (01:07:23):
No.

Speaker 10 (01:07:24):
Great, but my mom said that the tow truck showed
up and she was like.

Speaker 9 (01:07:27):
No, don't do it.

Speaker 2 (01:07:28):
Don't do it, sweetheart.

Speaker 9 (01:07:31):
What a sweet lady.

Speaker 13 (01:07:32):
I know.

Speaker 9 (01:07:34):
Good job, mom, You're better than me. Anyway.

Speaker 10 (01:07:37):
The Philadelphia seventy six ers officially have taken Game one
from the Brooklyn Nets, and it was because they could
not be stopped.

Speaker 6 (01:07:43):
No falling out of bounce gets it to the ink?
Who does shoot for three? Ten nineteen threes? A playoff
record from Beyond George from wait Out Talk.

Speaker 10 (01:07:53):
Seventy six Ers radio network on the call, they actually
shot twenty one three pointers. James Hard was responsible for
seven of them for a total of twenty three points.

Speaker 9 (01:08:03):
He had thirteen assist a little double double.

Speaker 10 (01:08:06):
MVP candidate Joe l Embiid had twenty six points. He
had one three pointer to go along with five rebounds.
Final score over the Nets one twenty one to one
oh one.

Speaker 9 (01:08:16):
In Major League Baseball, the Yankees have extended their leads,
probably over soon.

Speaker 10 (01:08:19):
It looks like the Twins might be down to their
final three outs to the top of the ninth inning
they're playing and the Bronx Yankees are up six to one.
Then yoh, the Giants and the Tigers are tied at
six apiece.

Speaker 9 (01:08:28):
Top of the ninth inning. They are playing in.

Speaker 10 (01:08:30):
Detroit, Orioles and White Sox tied at one a pieace
bottom of the fifth inning.

Speaker 9 (01:08:34):
Pirates and Cardinals tied at two a piece bottom of
the fifth inning as well. It's been fun, Jonahs.

Speaker 2 (01:08:39):
Back to you.

Speaker 7 (01:08:40):
Later, mon stop, mama, nice job, nice work, mama. Come on,
it is Jonas Knox here Fox Sports Radio. You can
get me on Twitter again at the Jonas Knox at
the Jonas Knox on Twitter.

Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
Coming up and we'll call it.

Speaker 7 (01:08:55):
About twelve minutes from now, we are going to have
another edition of the Scraps Things in the world world
of sports and beyond. We have not had a chance
to get to it as a Saturday tradition as we
close up shop here. But right now it is time
for the progressive play of the day. Maxie whid open

of the nets.

So before we get to break here, I did want
to mention this, though I don't I'm trying to figure

(01:09:40):
out and I don't know if teams know this in advance,
or if there's a team in the NFL who's looking
at this situation going, you know what, we just be
better off moving it to next year. But the Atlanta Falcons,
to me are fascinating and here's why they do have
talent on offense. Get Pitts back healthy, Drake London had

(01:10:02):
a good year. Like there's talent there on offense. And
Atlanta's not a bad team. I mean, you know, they've
floated around five hundred or just before. They're they're in
a division that's winnable, and you know with Carolina and
you don't know what New Orleans is gonna be if
Derek Carr is in a new place. Tampa Bay feels
like they're in rebuild mode and they feel like they're
falling apart a little bit. So Atlanta's kind of this

(01:10:24):
interesting team that everybody was surprised when Atlanta decided to
not want to get into the Lamar Jackson sweepstakes. That
Atlanta came out and said, no, we have a plan.
We're gonna roll with something else and we're not looking
at Lamar Jackson a quarterback.

Speaker 2 (01:10:40):
And so my big question would be, what's the plan?

Speaker 7 (01:10:44):
Then at quarterback we were talking about the Colts plan
and we can laugh at all that, but the Atlanta Falcons,
I don't get it. Is it Desmond Ritter? Is it
Taylor Heineke? Is is that what we're doing? Because it's
kind of a year for Arthur Smith, the head coach
of the Atlanta Falcons. He's entering year three and he's

(01:11:05):
six games under five hundred. Like we've seen coaches enter
year three and have really bad win loss records and
be on the brink to getting fired. Zach Taylor. But
Zach Taylor got Joe Burrow, like that was the the
solveall for the Cincinnati Bengals and what the Cincinnati Bengals

(01:11:26):
had going on, You get Joe Burrow and now Zach
Taylor's not going anywhere. Him and Joe Burrow have a rapport,
They work well together, They've had a bunch of success.
They they put the organization back on the map. As
long as Joe Burrow is there, Zach Taylor's going to
be there. But the Atlanta Falcons are sitting at eight.
So unless they've identified one of these quarterbacks that they're

(01:11:48):
going to roll with and they could trade up. We
talked about, you know, potentially Houston at two or Arizona
at three, unless Atlanta moves up, if they're just going
to roll with desil Ritter and they're gonna roll with
Taylor Heineke this upcoming season and improve it year for
Arthur Smith, I just wonder if they're one of these

(01:12:08):
teams who are quietly looking ahead to next year because
next year you got Caleb Williams.

Speaker 2 (01:12:16):
And next year you got Drake May.

Speaker 7 (01:12:19):
And if you talk to enough people, and Brady Quinn
has talked about this on Fox Sports Radio over the
past couple of months, if Caleb Williams and Drake May
came out in this draft.

Speaker 2 (01:12:29):
They'd be the first two quarterbacks off the board.

Speaker 7 (01:12:32):
So maybe the Falcons are one of these teams that
isn't looking at Lamar and they're not looking at will Levis,
and they're not looking at Anthony Richardson because they have
an eye towards the future and the futures about next year,
which makes this year a little bit of a fire
going on in Atlanta and a little bit of an
issue for Arthur Smith as he enters year three with

(01:12:53):
no real plan at quarterback, but potentially a plan for
next year if Caleb Williams and Drake May are there.

Speaker 7 (01:14:26):
But right now it's time to close up shop before
we go off the air.

Speaker 2 (01:14:30):
A lot of words there, but it's time.

Speaker 12 (01:14:32):
For this, Jonas, how could you not get to?

Speaker 1 (01:14:37):
These stories are.

Speaker 7 (01:14:40):
The scraps and but then we turn it over to
a man who's about to embark on multiple dinners later
on tonight, the one and only Ryan Berschinger.

Speaker 13 (01:14:51):
Thank you, I'm excited you really happy about that?

Speaker 2 (01:14:56):
Y versus gonna be eating a lot today.

Speaker 13 (01:14:58):
Yes, he is meeting great, Thank you, Jonas Birsh. What
do we got, Well, we've had, you know, some legal
troubles going on throughout the show, of course, with Monsei's
mother taking care of that terrible person who parked in
front of her driveway. Yeah, so we have an update
in the assault of one Dinger, the mascot for the

(01:15:21):
Colorado Rockets.

Speaker 7 (01:15:23):
Thank god, I couldn't have gone anire day without finding
out what the update was to Dinger.

Speaker 13 (01:15:28):
The Denver Police Department has identified and sighted a man
accused of tackling Dinger. This happened, of course, on Monday
night's home game against the Cardinals. If you watch the video,
it's kind of hilarious because Dinger's just doing his thing
on top of the dugout and this guy just kind
of wanders up there and charges at him and tackles him.
Who knows why, but the man.

Speaker 1 (01:15:50):
Is named Kenneth Soddley. He was forty five.

Speaker 13 (01:15:53):
He was contacted by phone after the Denver police hunted
him down. He turned self into police around two fifty
on Friday and was cited for assault and disturbing the peace.
He is scheduled to appear in court on May twelfth.
All right, so yes, oh no, I'm sorry. I didn't
mean to cut you out. It's in a tweet. Denver
Peede thanked the community for the tips that led to

(01:16:14):
Sodley's identification.

Speaker 2 (01:16:16):
Of course they did.

Speaker 7 (01:16:17):
Now can we speculate why would this person at forty
five years old tackle a mascot? Obviously we know probably
alcohol was involved. Let's just go ahead and get that
right out of the way. Like, we know, you know,
he probably you know, was on a little bit of
the liver loube and he you know, decided to seem

(01:16:37):
like a good idea. But why would he attack the mascot?
That is that is the part I'm struggling with.

Speaker 2 (01:16:43):
So what do you think it?

Speaker 7 (01:16:44):
Like, what could the mascot have done that would have
pissed him off?

Speaker 13 (01:16:48):
Well, first we can confirm one of the pictures of
the man in question, he was holding a modello. Okay,
so I don't know if just modello inspired this attack.
In terms of what the mascot could have done to
pits him off, maybe maybe he brushed against him as
he walked up towards the top of the dugout maybe
he wasn't doing a good enough job and inspiring the rockies.

Speaker 7 (01:17:10):
See, or maybe the female friend or his better half
could have been male, could have been female.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
Hey, that's all good.

Speaker 7 (01:17:20):
Maybe they admired the outfit.

Speaker 2 (01:17:24):
That Dinger was wearing.

Speaker 7 (01:17:26):
Maybe they said, you know, wonder what you know Dinger
looks like without the mask on, and did like an
Instagram search and was you know, we're very pleased with
the discovery. And maybe this, in a fit of jealous rage,
decided I'm going to go tackle that giant stuffed animal
and spill my MODELO all over the field and get arrested.
And now what does the fine look like for tackling

(01:17:49):
a mascot?

Speaker 2 (01:17:50):
Do we have the information on that.

Speaker 7 (01:17:51):
Or is there no no idea that Well, that's that
is just an unfortunate situation all in all, not that
we don't have the imber, but just said a mascot
was tackled, because that guy may be the biggest loser
in the world, not the mascot, the guy who tackled
the mascot. I just that's one of those things that
doesn't make any sense. What else do we got?

Speaker 13 (01:18:11):
Bersh So last night the New York Mets were visiting
the Oakland Athletics, and I think we can make a
case for this being just the most disgusting baseball game
in a very long time. Of course, we had many
years ago in the Dodgers Angels exhibition prior to the
start of the season, where you know, there was a
plumbing issue and there was a leak onto the field

(01:18:33):
and they had to suspend play because of it. Was
that at Dodgers Stadium or was at Dodger City.

Speaker 2 (01:18:39):
Wow, it's disappointing, very.

Speaker 13 (01:18:44):
But you know, I think that maybe the troughs were
just kind of overflowing at the time, and finally we
got the troughs out of there, so hey, we've made it.

Speaker 7 (01:18:52):
We've made it to the little piece of advice, don't
do what Iowa Sam does at the trough and tell people, hey,
nice watch.

Speaker 14 (01:19:02):
Well, thank you for that warning to the listeners last
night in Oakland, not only on the field did was
it just disgusting because the Oakland A's not only allowed
seventeen runs, they issued seventeen walks and see but the
New York Mets broadcast booth unfortunately could not use their

(01:19:26):
normal location for their broadcast booth. They had to be
moved after a couple of innings into the game, and
this was because the resident possum that is known to
reside in the visiting broadcast booth at the Oakland Coliseum
was left too many droppings so it smelled terribly and

(01:19:47):
they were given the opportunity to move to a different booth.

Speaker 2 (01:19:52):
Hold on a sec So the possum crapped in the booth.

Speaker 7 (01:19:55):
Yes, I mean, oh again, how did they know it
was the possum?

Speaker 13 (01:20:04):
I mean, that's fair, That's that's fair.

Speaker 7 (01:20:06):
Listen, look, I'm gonna defend the possum here. I think
it was probably the statistician who had bad food at
that hell hole that the A's playing, and he just decided, look,
it's either now or never, and I gotta go. And
then he looked over at the possum and he said,
that'll work. Like if that's my out, that's my out.
I just I don't know that we can clearly say

(01:20:27):
that this was the possum. And is it only one
possum that lives there? Is it multiple possums that live there?
Isn't that stadium like overrun with wild cats too?

Speaker 1 (01:20:38):
Like?

Speaker 7 (01:20:38):
What wasn't there a story that like there's a bunch
of wild cats that live at that stadium.

Speaker 13 (01:20:42):
I mean, it would make sense. There is a lot
of empty space out there, so it does. It is
conducive to animal population.

Speaker 7 (01:20:51):
You know what's the strangest thing about possums. They're in
the same family as koala's.

Speaker 3 (01:20:56):
Yeah, it's North America is only native marsupial. Yeah, and
they're actually very good for in the force he ticks in.

Speaker 1 (01:21:02):
Okay, but I'm.

Speaker 7 (01:21:03):
Talking, Okay, I'm talking about the aesthetics. Like a possum
next to a koala, you'd go which one would you
rather hug. I'm not hugging a possum. It's basically like
a stick in dynamite, not doing it. But it's like
like both of the they're in the same family, they're
not even alike. That would be like finding out that
you know, you meet somebody who's who's a pastor or
somebody who donates all of their life savings to help,

(01:21:25):
you know, sick people, and then it goes, oh, by
the way, my uncle's Jeffrey Dahmer. It's like, wait, what
they makes sense? But again, you know, I'm going to
defend the possum here.

Speaker 8 (01:21:36):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (01:21:36):
If we can't clearly, if we didn't see him in
the act, I don't know how we can accuse this
cute little animal of crapping in a baseball booth Jonas
