Speaker 7 (01:51):
So we still got ourselves a lot of bitter, bitter
people in the world of sports. I'll tell you who
they are. In fact, you might be one of them.
We'll get into that here coming up just a couple
of moments from now, Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio. You

(02:38):
their life that your wife or your girlfriend, or your
husband or your boyfriend or whoever your better half is.
They've got that one friend in their life that they
just don't like. Anytime you bring them up during the
course of a conversation, you get that side eye. Oh
him again, just kind of I don't know if it's
because they think he's a bad influence or she's bad influence,

(03:01):
or there's some It could be even something as innocuous
as a comment that was made when you first met
as a joke, and still whatever the point is, they
can't get over it. There's still a bitterness that resides
next to them anytime that person's name is brought up,
and you can't get over it. And there's somebody in
the NFL that has the ability right now to uncover

(03:25):
the absolute bitterness that still sits and still rests over
one moment that took place a couple of years ago.
The person who's pulling the strings of those emotions is
none other than Aaron Rodgers. It's happening. You may not
even know what's happening. You may even be in taken
part in it, you might even be part of the problem,

(03:47):
but it's happening.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
And I'll tell you why.

Speaker 7 (03:50):
Robert Sala was asked about this wish list, the Jets
head coach. He was asked about the wish list that
Aaron Rodgers put together, and he pretty much downplayed it,
sort of laughed it off, like I mean, come on,
like that's, you know, wish list and blah blah blah.
I was asked about it on Friday and just kind
of dismissed the whole thing. And it's almost like the

(04:12):
more that Rogers brings in former packers, whether it's Alan
Lazard or Randall Cobb or you name it. There's been
some rumblings maybe Mercedes Lewis would be a part of
the would come into the fold at some point, like
whenever there's a former packer that's brought in. Now, all
of a sudden, you got people in the media and

(04:33):
people that run to social media that go ooh, gotcha, Yeah, gotcha.
And you know why because when the report came out
from Adam Schefter and Diana Rassini that Aaron Rodgers had
a quote unquote wish list, Rogers dismissed it and in
fact made fun of it when he was on with
Pat McAfee, just kind of just and the media can't

(04:57):
let it go. So now every time a former PAS
signs with the New York Jets, everybody's got to ooh,
got him again? What about Oh, I thought you didn't
have a wish list? Huh, we got him, guys, I
thought you didn't have a wish list? All right, Two
things that are laughable here. Number one, A wish list

(05:18):
or wanting to play or work with certain people who doesn't.
I don't know a lot of people that say, you know,
I can't stand that guy. He's an a hole. I
don't want to be around him. He's not good at
his job. We don't get a long horrible person wouldn't
mind if he walked into traffic. But you know what,
I'd love to work with him for four more years.

(05:39):
I don't know that person. I don't know who does
that person exist? I'm not aware of that person existing.
Like I can assure you that if you had somebody
in your life that you didn't want to be around
or you didn't like, you probably want to spend as
little time with them as possible. Just call it a gun,

(06:00):
that feeling, you know, called a hunch, just you probably
want to spend as little time as possible with that person.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
That's my feeling.

Speaker 7 (06:08):
Not just in sports, that you want to work with
or play with somebody you like. That's everywhere in life,
in every walk of life that exists. Here's the other
part that's funny about this whole thing. It's not like
Rogers lied about it, and that's the assumption.

Speaker 3 (06:23):
Well, he lied.

Speaker 7 (06:24):
He said he didn't have a wish list, and all
these guys that played with Aaron Rodgers now joining the Jets.
He never lied about it. He just said, no, there
was no wish list. He didn't write down on a
piece of paper. The list of names he wanted to
play with, and those were his demands. I mean, I
heard that he wanted to play with Odell Beckham Junior

(06:46):
and last I heard ob Jayson Baltimore. So I don't
know if there was a wish list. Apparently they've missed
on a couple of those. It's like making your Christmas
list as a kid and your parents are looking at
you going, Okay, you want this, you want that, you
want that, when in reality, your parents are looking at
it going okay, I can't afford that not buying that.
Absolutely no chance in hell. Don't want to clean that up.

(07:08):
That's gonna make him mess. All right, good, we'll see
what Santa does. Come to twenty fifth like there was
no wish list. And here's the other thing. If Rogers
did lie about it, who cares? Even if he did,
who cares? Because you've never been lied to by an
athlete before, and athletes never lied to you. I mean,

(07:31):
do you want to go back in time and talk
about Lance Armstrong? Do you want to talk about Ryan Braun?
I mean, how many athletes have lied to you before?
Rogers possibly lying about having a wish list, even if
it was true, and that's the one we're hung up on.
Like Lance Armstrong was celebrated as an American hero, and

(07:54):
that guy was on so much gas that when he urinated,
the toy toilet engine started.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (08:06):
I mean, look look at some of the elaborate ways
snuck around and got by the whole process. The guy
who finished seventeenth in the Tour de France one year
was named Winter a few years later, Yes, seventeenth. I
don't even know you finished the race. He's probably having
a snack on one of the mountains.

Speaker 3 (08:22):
By listen. I can't compeat with these guys.

Speaker 7 (08:26):
I mean, they're on so much ped let there's nothing
I can do about it. So even if Rogers, it's
not like the first time somebody's lied to you. But
let me tell you why all of this is happening.
It's bitterness. It's like that buddy of yours. It's like
that friend in your life. You know, it could be
a sibling that the person you're around all the time

(08:47):
doesn't want you near because a one moment that may
have happened years ago. Let me tell you exactly what
the problem is. Because Rogers, during the whole COVID and
vaccine and immunize and all that others because Rogers found
a way to dance around the question of whether or

(09:08):
not he was vaccinated and nobody caught onto it in
real time. Now everybody is holding onto every single word
that he says. It's a bunch of bitter media members
who don't like the fact that they didn't do their
job in real time, and now they want to spot
a lie in anything. Aaron Rodgers says, that's exactly what

(09:29):
this is, and it's going to continue. You can say, no,
that's not the case. People don't care, but yes they do.
They hold on to grudges. It's why Rogers is such
a polarizing figure. It's why when he does these interviews
with Pat McAfee, everybody's got to break down every single

(09:51):
word he says and every single aing, Well, what does
he mean by this? He's being passive aggressive? What about dude,
who cares? He does the interview the way he wants
to do the interview. It's the same guy who sat
down with Mina Chimes years ago and brought his own
tape recorder because he wanted to make sure he wasn't misquoted.

(10:14):
So this idea that we're gonna pick apart and people
in the media are gonna find something wrong with Rogers
And he did what did he mean by this? And
yes he did have a wish list. A. He probably
made some recommendations. Was it written down on a list?
Who knows and who cares? And B who doesn't want

(10:34):
to work with certain people in their life they like
more than others? What's the problem? But people can't let
it go. They're still holding on to it. And I
got news for you. As much as I think it's
gonna work with the Jets, and I'm not a Jets fan,
I think their fan base is ridiculous. I mean, it's
a bizarre fan base. They celebrate weird things. I mean,

(10:58):
if you think I'm crazy, they're the favorite player in
the history of the franchise wore panteose and one of
the most popular coaches in the history of the franchise
had a foot fetish. I think I'm nuts. Those are facts.
And don't even get me started on Brett varv Okay.
You know, guy sends out a random picture to a

(11:19):
certain somebody on the sidelines. There's a picture of his
crocs and his wristwatch. Then tries to deny it. You
know that whole thing was weird. But again, I'm not
bringing that stuff up because I don't want to get sued. Okay,
point is this is not to defend the New York
Jets fan base, is not to celebrate the Jets. I'm
not a Jets fan. All I'm saying is this, at

(11:39):
some point, you gotta let it go, just like the
person in your life has to let go whatever moment
steered them in the direction of thinking that guy was
a bad influence or that person shouldn't be around you,
or etc.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Etc. Etc.

Speaker 7 (11:51):
At some point, you gotta let it go. Rogers is
a New York Jet. It's probably gonna work. And if
he has a wish list or he's immunized or whatever else,
he said, as who cares.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
Let's just enjoy the ride.

Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 7 (14:23):
All right, so coming up and we'll call it about
ten minutes from now from the tireraq dot Com studios.
We are going to discuss an event in sports. It's
a major event in the world of sports that has
turned into unintentional comedy.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
It is borderline hilarious. What is happening?

Speaker 7 (14:41):
We will get into that for you again coming up
in about ten minutes from now here on FSR.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
You know, whats uh.

Speaker 7 (14:48):
There was a moment during the Lamar Jackson press conference
all right where he was asked a question by the
media after and this is after he signs his deal
and Lamar Jackson is now Baltimore Raven for the next
five years. And it's a monster deal and it was
a home run contract for him, for a guy that
was repping himself that doesn't have to pay agent fees.

(15:10):
Good for him, man, Lamar Jackson got it done. A
lot of people were skeptical. I was one of them.
He got it done. Love, Lamar Jackson, one of my
favorite players in the NFL, absolutely deserves the deal.

Speaker 3 (15:22):
The two hundred and thirty million dollars guaranteed. Whatever.

Speaker 7 (15:25):
I mean, that's this and that's Jimmy Hasm and Deshaun
Watson's problem to figure out. But nonetheless, Lamar Jackson is
going to be in Baltimore. Well, there was this moment
that I thought was interesting because I don't know why
it happened, But take a listen to a back and
forth between a member of the media and Lamar Jackson.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
This from the other.

Speaker 6 (15:43):
Day, Hey marsh, he tweeted out, yet imity really a
month later if you signed, you know, a record deal?

Speaker 3 (15:51):
What changed through that time? Mister Jamison?

Speaker 10 (15:54):
You know what today, We're going to keep it about
the future. You know, I'm not really worried about what
happened in it. Don't keep it about these next five years,
and keep it about you know what's going on today.
You know it's a great day, great day, just with
the guys up here. That so I don't focus on
right now.

Speaker 7 (16:12):
You ever wake up from a bad dream, Like there's
certain dreams you want to look back on. Hey, what
did that mean?

Speaker 3 (16:17):
You know?

Speaker 7 (16:18):
Like it was floating clouds, you know, bumped up next
to a bald eagle, landed on a tree top right
when I was about to fall I woke up. But
what about the flying part? It's like, like, those are
the ones you want to look back on, you know
what dreams I don't want to look back on the

(16:38):
ones where a giant spider pops out of a UFO
that lands in my backyard and does crystal meth off
my dog's corpse.

Speaker 3 (16:48):
I'd like to not go back and look.

Speaker 7 (16:50):
At any of that. I don't know what the want
to know what it means. I don't know what. Don't
want to know what the deeper meaning is. I'd like
to not relive any of that stuff. In fact, when
I wake up, I'm relieved that it's over. So you
mean to tell me I don't have to live in
a reality where a giant tarantula pops out of a

(17:11):
flying saucer and does drugs off my dead dog. You
mean to tell me like, that's not a real thing.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
All right? Cool? So what are we doing today? Anybody
want to drink?

Speaker 7 (17:21):
Don't have to deal with it, don't What does it
matter that desn that Lamar Jackson asked for a trade
because he wasn't getting the Deshaun Watson contract. What does
it matter? Like, I get the question. I know everybody's
doing their job. I get it, But what does it matter? Well,
I mean a month ago he asked for a tree, Dude,
it's negotiating. There's a lot of stuff that happens with negotiations,

(17:44):
a lot of things that are said. Feelings are hurt.
Sometimes you want to know how feelings aren't hurt anymore
when you wake up out of that nightmare that was
a negotiation and you realize, oh, I'm going to make
one hundred and eighty five million dollars over the.

Speaker 3 (17:56):
Next three years.

Speaker 7 (17:57):
Cool, I have no interest in wanting to go back
and well he asked for a trade.

Speaker 6 (18:03):
Man.

Speaker 7 (18:03):
People do stuff all the time. That's negotiating. It happens
like there was a long time ago. Derek Jeter was
in his final contract negotiation with the New York Yankees,
and he was upset. He was hurt because he thought, man,
all I've done for this organization and you guys can't
give me this Instead, I feel like, you know, I'm

(18:26):
getting short changed and I'm getting this from you guys.
And it's like, man, like, we've done great things together.
Guess what happened. He still signed a contract, still retired
to Yankee, still one of their all time greats. Everybody
loves him. Everything's fine. You don't have to go back
and live the nightmare that you experienced, just like Lamar
Jackson and the Baltimore Ravenston't. Eric DaCosta said it in

(18:50):
the press conference. Yeah, man like, look, there were some
dark days. Things got a little heated. But it's not
like Baltimore wanted to use the non exclusive franchise tag.
They didn't want to have to tell Lamar Jackson, Hey,
this is what the market really is for you, and
the contract we offered you in twenty twenty two, that's
the best deal you're gonna get. We'll make some adjustments,

(19:12):
but you're not getting that to Shaun Watson contract. Like
Eric DaCosta, he acknowledged it. Man, things are tough at times,
Lamar Jackson, and things are tough at times. But that's
the great thing about waking up out of a nightmare.
You don't have to relive it again. If you want
to do a deep dive and try and figure out

(19:33):
why it happened and what it all means, and well,
what about this and what happened with go right ahead.
I'm uninterested. Lamar Jackson's going to be a Baltimore Raven
for the next foreseeable future. Whether you think maybe you
could have played towards the end of last year and
he held out because whatever you think, whatever Lamar Jackson's

(19:56):
situation was him going to Twitter. I wasn't a big
fan of him to go siating or talking about details
of the contract via social media. I don't remember that
ever happening before, all right, Like I don't know you
or what your situation is with your employment, but I
can imagine you probably wouldn't want to relay a conversation
you had with your boss about pay via social media

(20:18):
and quote retweet some guy who made a comment about
you turning down like whatever. Like, listen, everybody's different. Lamar
Jackson probably made some mistakes. The Baltimore Ravens probably look
back and say, we could have handled this better. We
could have messaged this differently, We could have done that better. Like,
there's several things both sides could look back on and say, yeah,

(20:39):
if we had to do it all over again, maybe
we should have done this. But you know what we learn.
We move on to the next one. But it's all over.
You don't have to live in that world. You don't
have to live in a reality where there's somebody other
than Lamar Jackson is your quarterback. Him staying in Baltimore
was always the way I felt like this thing was
going to go with the Ravens was always the best

(21:01):
option for both The team traded up and drafted him.
When you had people talking about him needing to switch positions.
They traded up, They drafted a guy in the first round.
They turned over the organization to him at a time
where things were in flux and the feeling was Ozzie
Newsom's leaving. John Harbaugh might be gone, Joe Flacco's gone

(21:22):
at the end of the year, and Lamar Jackson became
a star and they built everything around him. They committed
this offseason to building around the quarterback position. They brought
in obj They've added parts, They've added pieces. He wasn't
going to go anywhere else. It wasn't happening. That was
a nightmare. They woke up from the nightmare. Why do

(21:43):
you need to relive it again? It's over. Jonas Knox
Fox Sports Radio, Get me on Twitter at the Jonas
Knox at the Jonas Knox on Twitter, and again you
can hang out with us as always on the iHeartRadio
app coming up next year from the Tirack dot Com studios.
Though there's something that's happening in sports. They're not to
be funny, but unintentionally it might be one of the

(22:03):
funniest things we are experiencing in real time. And it's
this weekend I'll tell you what that is next, but
for all the latest from around the world.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
Of sports, ladies and gentlemen, you just.

How about that we dressed it up, bells and whistles here,
no stone unturned here on weekend programming.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
By the way, what time is it?

Speaker 7 (22:39):
Because I feel like we're all sitting in the middle
of a barn with no electricity.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
It's dark in.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Here, man, right, you know what I mean. It's the
one thing on this about the old studio. It had
a window right there, right next to it, and it
was a bright, beautiful day outside. You could feel it
even though you were inside. But here you can't tell
what time of day it is, whether it's eleven, whether
it's three in the morning.

Speaker 9 (23:00):
I mean, there is a protest going on, but you know,
par it is the season.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
Every Saturday there's a protest. They were playing.

Speaker 9 (23:05):
I don't know if you guys have ever heard one
of my favorite instruments, the sitar.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
I believe it's called a citar.

Speaker 7 (23:11):
Just an elegant, sexy instrument that they were playing in
the streets. I almost didn't walk into the studio because
I was going to stay out there for the concert.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
But nonetheless, yeah, I do miss that.

Speaker 7 (23:20):
You never know when you would see like a couple
of homeless guys fighting, somebody waiting for a bus that
already left. But you don't want to be the a
hole to tell them, hey, you're gonna be there a
while because you missed your bus already. There is a
lot of stuff happening here. Let's go live to our
I don't care about the update music playing insider, IOWA
Sam for the latest Sam.

Speaker 8 (23:38):
I'm not trying to derail Kevin's update here. But are
you talking about like the Writers Guild of America protests
or other protests because you know about that WGA protest
right or like the picket yeah all the writers that
all the writers are on strike right now?

Speaker 2 (23:51):
Yeah, No, this one was for because I saw they
were carrying Iranian flags.

Speaker 9 (23:55):
Yeah okay, yeah, he win and around and they were
playing a citar.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
Yeah, sitars are awesome.

Speaker 7 (24:01):
See if we have a sitar sounddrop in the system,
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
If we do.

Speaker 7 (24:04):
It might be next to some of the fart noises
we have that take priority, but a point being it's
a really, really amazing instrument if we ever find it.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
I'm telling you sorry, Kevin. I don't know why Sam
had to do that to you. I'm good with it
to Kevin anyway.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
The big event today the one hundred and forty ninth
Kentucky Derby, and the betting favorite this morning was fort However,
he will not be on the track. He was scratched
following a workout earlier this morning in which trainers met
with state veterinarians. The horse stumbled during a workout on
Thursday and is believed to have a bruce foot to
beat Trice's Angel of Empire, both listed as favorites at

(24:40):
nine to two odds after Fourt's withdrawal, and the race
set to start around six forty five Eastern time. Other
big events coming up today the NBA Playoffs, around an
hour away from the start of Game three of the
Eastern Conference semi Finals Nicks versus Heat, that series tied
at one game apiece and coming up at a thirty
Eastern The semi finals out West Golden State and Los

(25:02):
Angeles Lakers at Crypto dot Com Arena. That series also
tied at one game a piece. Major League Baseball, Houston
right hander Luis Garcia and needing Tommy John surgery after
he was pulled from his start Monday against the Giants.
He only threw eight pitches and had to leave with
elbow discomfort. He will miss the rest of the season.
They're expecting him to come back sometime in twenty twenty four.

(25:24):
As for Major League Baseball action, a couple of games underway.
Detroit and Saint Louis scoreless in the bottom of the
first inning, however, the Cardinals threatening with runners on the
corners and two out. In Chicago, it's the Miami Marlins
with a one nothing lead over the Cubs. That's still
in the top of the first inning. The Marlins with
runners on first and second and to out dot v Jonas,

(25:44):
Thanks Kevin Jonas Knox. Here Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 7 (25:47):
Coming up in fifteen minutes from now here on FSR,
we are going to talk about borderline disrespect. Disrespect for
a Super Bowl MVP. We'll tell you who that is
here on Fox Sports Radio. Well, let's talk about what's
turned into maybe the most unintentionally funny thing in all
of sports. So they got the Kentucky Derby going on

(26:09):
today later today, not far from now. As Kevin mentioned
in his update, that was steered into a ditch early
on by Iowa Sam, but he was able to steer
out of the ditch again, so job well done. That
is not the sitar by the way, job well doe.

Speaker 3 (26:26):
By Kevin Wyrett there.

Speaker 7 (26:27):
But point being, the Kentucky Derby is happening here in
a couple hours from now, and it's been kind of
a tough week there. The favorite has been scratched, forte
bruised foot has been scratched, so they didn't feel like
it was safe for him to run or her. Again,

(26:48):
I'm not trying to piss anybody off. Okay, I don't
know if that horse is a male or female, all right,
I just want to say the horse and then also
you have a woman. Yeah, I mean listen, I can
confirm whether or not that was Forte.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
All right.

Speaker 7 (27:02):
I'm not willing to go out on a limon say
that was him, because we care about research on the
show and we want to get things straight. We are
all about the facts here. You also had the unfortunate
incidents that took place this week where you had five
horses die there at Churchill Downs. So you've got the
favorite who's been scratched due to a medical issue, you
had five horses die, you had a trainer suspended following

(27:25):
the death of a couple of horses, and in a
couple hours from now, you imagine going to a funeral
for five people and somebody breaks out a trumpet.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
Why do we do it here?

Speaker 7 (27:49):
I's like, Okay, a kind of a difficult, difficult week,
but show must go on. We got a lot of
people here. We got like one hundred and fifty two
hundred thousand people here. Everybody's dressed up in some dumb hat,
drinking mint, jewel lips, whatever those are. And we're just
gonna go ahead and run these things in circles for
forty eight seconds and whoever, somebody who's gonna make a

(28:09):
lot of money, and then the horse is gonna be
retired to go have sex for the rest of his life.
That's what we're talking about here. Like, I don't know
if horse racing is trying to be funny. I don't
think they are, but it's unintentionally one of the funniest
things that has happened in a long time. Where hold
on a second, so let me get this straight. You

(28:32):
got a trainer who's been suspended because a couple of
horses died. The favorite has been scratched hours before the
race because it's got an injury. You had five horses
in total die this week at the track and a
couple hours from now, break out the trumpets.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
We're gonna make a lot of money.

Speaker 6 (28:56):
Like that.

Speaker 3 (28:56):
Whole thing is.

Speaker 7 (28:58):
Just the whole things bizarre. And look, I'm not trying
to judge horse racing. I've said it for the longest
time now. If you want to have a good time
and an affordable time, go to a horse track. It
is so much damn fun and I don't want to
hear there's a lot of excuses that are made. People
will say, well, I don't know anything about horse racing.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
Who does.

Speaker 7 (29:22):
You think if those horses knew a damn thing about anything,
they'd let some garden gnome right on their back and
circles for a rose necklace. I'm looking, I'm not trying
to question the intelligence of a horse, but who does that?
And then on top of that, you're letting the guy
kick you in the ribs, like you're getting bullied by

(29:46):
a human shotglass and you're running in circles for a
necklace of roses. I mean, they might be beautiful roses.
I don't know, but to me, that's a lot for that.
But you know, hey, I'm not trying to judge it,
all right, I'm not trying to sit here and criticize

(30:07):
horse racing. Go to a horse track, even if you
don't know anything. It is a damn good time. You
don't have to bring a lot of money, like I
go to sant Anita. Man, you could walk into Santa Anita,
including parking, and for twenty to thirty dollars, bet on
a couple of races, maybe have a drink, get a

(30:31):
race day program, and walk away and go. I don't
know what just happened, but it was fun. Like you
don't even have to bet on a horse to win.
You can just bet on whether or not a horse
is gonna finish second or third. You could even get
with some of your degenerate flunky buddies and do the

(30:53):
walk back bet. You know what the walk back bet is.
I didn't even know this was a thing. I was
talking to Brady Quinn about it. We had aj Hawk
on aj Hawk, who's the star of the Pat McAfee show.
And AJ Hawk was at the Kentucky Derby with Aaron
Rodgers and some other Packers teammates, and he talked about
the walk back bet and I said, what the hell's that?
He goes, Yeah, like, after the race is over, you

(31:15):
and your buddies standing by the track, you bet on
which horse is going to walk back fastest to get
off the track. Like that's not a real bet. Yeah,
it is amongst friends. So if you really want to
be a degenerate, you can bet on something that's not
even available at a horse track. And everything's available to
horse track. I'm telling you. Going to a horse track

(31:38):
is like if somebody said, we're gonna build this place,
all right, but we've got some inspirations. Well what inspirations
are those?

Speaker 3 (31:45):
All right?

Speaker 7 (31:45):
So we want something that's gonna be like Las Vegas,
a petting zoo and a swap meet all in one.

Speaker 3 (31:56):
Huh, what do you call that? Churchill down Santa Anita.
I'm like, I'd pick a horse track. That's what it is.
It's great. So I'm not trying to judge horse racing.
I love it, But there is something funny about the
idea that we have got dead bodies, a suspension and injury,

(32:19):
and trumpets that are playing, and two hundred thousand people
gambling on it all.

Speaker 7 (32:23):
There's just something about it. Okay, maybe it's my dark
sense of humor. I don't know what to tell you,
but there's something about it that is unintentionally funny. And nonetheless,
the Kentucky Derby's coming up later on today. By the way,
a little bit of an update here. I did reach
out to the great Andy Furman. He's a horse racing officionado.
I said, hey, Andy, can you give me a winner? Andy,
what do you think about coming on later? We'd play
a little grab ash. You can hand out some cash

(32:45):
here to the loyal listeners. And you know what, Andy
wrote back, not a damn thing. That's part for the
course as well too with Andy Furman, I'm an idiot.
I don't know much what a d bag that guy is. Unbelievable.
Tweet Andy and let him know I said that on
the air.

Speaker 3 (32:59):
I don't care.

Speaker 7 (33:00):
I'll deal with whatever repercussions come with it. I'm an idiot, scumbag,
all right. To Jonas Knox here Fox Sports Radio. You
can also listen to this show again as always on
the iHeartRadio app Tell your friends. Coming up next, though,
we are going to have ourselves some borderline disrespect of
a Super Bowl MVP.

Speaker 3 (33:20):
We'll tell you who that is right here on fsr H.
So good.

Speaker 7 (33:31):
For those of you'll see on the podcast. It's called
Sitar Metal by Rob Scallen Iowa. Sam found It, Jonas
Knox Fox Sports Radio Love the sitar Man. All right,
Coming up, I get it together, everybody. Fifteen minutes from now,
trying to be professional for once. Fifteen minutes from now

(33:53):
here from the tire rot dot Com studios, we are
going to have ourselves a discussion about one team in
the world of sports that deserves to be absolutely destroyed
if something doesn't happen. This team deserves to be destroyed
by anybody that has a show or a voice, or

(34:13):
a pen or paper or laptop or you nate, whatever,
They deserve to be destroyed. We'll get into that for
you again fifteen minutes from now on fs HAARBOR. Right now,
it is time for something we do every single week
at this time, and it's called this.

Speaker 6 (34:29):
There are so many stories in the world of sports,
and most of them are a complete waste of time.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
DMG reports, let's get kinky.

Speaker 6 (34:37):
Here's some of the big stories from the last week.
But Jonas, the real question is do you care?

Speaker 7 (34:44):
And for that we turn it over to our executive
producer Bo Benson to find out what the hell's going on.

Speaker 11 (34:49):
Bo.

Speaker 9 (34:50):
There's a great intro by Sam right there, the round
of Aplasta.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
That is, by the way, Bo, is that your green
backpack that jan sport back?

Speaker 9 (34:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (34:57):
That is I've never seen a green backpack before.

Speaker 9 (34:59):
Yeah, it's Kelly Green, like kind of like the Eagles.
So that's why I bought it. Listen, big fan, Yeah,
old old school chance, that's right, That's right.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (35:10):
So the Green Bay Packers have given Aaron Rodgers former
locker spot to a rookie quarterback Sean Clifford that they
just drafted. Jonas.

Speaker 3 (35:18):
Do you care? Yeah?

Speaker 9 (35:20):
I mean, like the body's not getting cold, you know, like,
what are we doing here? What do you not have room?

Speaker 3 (35:27):
You know? You can't like just let it sit for
a little.

Speaker 7 (35:29):
I mean the Rams kept a locker for Obj for
like nine months and he never even came back, and
all he did was play like six games and got
injured in the Super Bowl. He was great in the
Super Bowl, probably would have won MVP if he stayed healthy.
They would have run away with that game. But it's
like geez man, like Rogers just left and now they're
already given out, you know. His locker to Sean Clifford, who,

(35:50):
by the way, Sean Clifford just celebrated his forty third birthday.
So so good to see Sean Clifford in the NFL
with the Green Bay Packers.

Speaker 9 (35:58):
Next, all right, speaking of the Eagle, his Super Bowl
hero Nick Foles was released by the Colts yesterday. Jonas,
do you care about this one at all?

Speaker 3 (36:06):
Not really? No, not really. Listen, who gives him?

Speaker 7 (36:09):
Nick Foles has made a ton of money, had one
of the great runs that we've ever seen. His story
is going to be talked about for a long long time.
He's also the reason why Carson Wentz his career in
Philadelphia had never got on track again. Which look, I
can remember being on the air and saying, by the way,
we could celebrate the Philadelphia Eagles and all that this

(36:29):
was the end of Carson Wentz because he was never
going to live up to that. It's too difficult to
win a super Bowl and it's unfortunate for him and
Nick Foles and never going to be tied together.

Speaker 9 (36:38):
Next soccer superstar Lionel Messi was forced to apologize to
his club and teammates at Paris Saint Germain after he
missed training for a visit to Saudi Arabia, where he
is rumored to be looking to play after he leaves
Paris this summer. Take care, No, I don't.

Speaker 6 (36:54):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 9 (36:55):
I can't either.

Speaker 7 (36:58):
I can't keep a keep track of where these guys
play half the time, like you've got.

Speaker 9 (37:05):
The video was actually really funny. It was almost like
one of those old hostage videos that they would do, which,
you know, considering some of the details on why they're
upset with him. Yeah that alone.

Speaker 7 (37:17):
Yeah, I mean listen, you know, just I mean, I
don't know where these guys like PSG, Like, isn't an't
there a couple of guys playing for?

Speaker 11 (37:27):
Like?

Speaker 3 (37:27):
Is that what PSG?

Speaker 8 (37:28):
Is?

Speaker 3 (37:28):
Is that the name of his?

Speaker 7 (37:29):
Yeah, PSPSG, he's PSG, but he was with what Barcelona?

Speaker 3 (37:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (37:32):
Barcelona?

Speaker 3 (37:33):
Okay?

Speaker 7 (37:33):
Like and then he you know, he plays for Like
some of this stuff's difficult to keep track of like
you know, and then look all these guys end up
getting older. And they followed the David Beckham track where
they say, all right, I made a bunch of money overseas,
my skills aren't where they were. Let me go to
the MLS and make like, you know, eight ten million
dollars a year and just make them a bunch of
money like it just you know, I mean, this is

(37:54):
where this goes. So then go play Saudi Arabia, Go
play for psg P three, Go play for Atari.

Speaker 3 (38:02):
Who cares? Go do what you gotta do next.

Speaker 9 (38:05):
Oklahoma and Texas will finally officially join the SEC on
July first, twenty twenty four, after the schools are the
board of regents at both schools reached contractual agreements in
order to do so. Do you care about this only.

Speaker 3 (38:19):
Because hey, I love it here.

Speaker 7 (38:22):
I believe that Lincoln Riley, although he already left us
for USC and he's on his way to the Big ten,
and you've got these other coaches that are heading and
getting geared up. The only reason I care about this
is because I believe that there are certain coaches that

(38:43):
don't want any part of this realignment and don't want
to go to these conferences. I think Lincoln Riley's one
of them, and I do wonder about Steve Sarkesian, because
you're gonna get to the SEC whole nother level. If
you're Lincoln Riley, You're gonna get to the big ten,
whole nother level. Like I just I wonder if they're
even around when this move happened, so we could see

(39:03):
some some jockeying for position. No pun intended on Kentucky
Derby for some of these coaching opening openings that could
happen next.

Speaker 9 (39:10):
And former Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that Baker Mayfield,
the current quarterback of the Buccaneers, was a better quarterback
prospect than anybody in this twenty twenty three NFL draft.

Speaker 7 (39:21):
Do you care, Yeah, anything, Bruce Arians says. Draymond Green
joining us here anything, Bruce Arians says, I always care
about Bruce Arians, who used to be a guest on
Fox Sports Radio. And we made the mistake one time
of having Bruce Arians on live years ago, and we

(39:44):
didn't realize that the F word was just part of
his every day vernacular and one of every other sentence.
And after two or three dumps and all of a sudden,
you get some message from the knock upstairs.

Speaker 3 (39:54):
Yeah, there's a bunch of styl like you missed a.

Speaker 7 (39:56):
Spot, Like you get like these these people upstairs to
start yell it. You realize all you got a tape
with Bruce Arians moving forward, So love Bruce.

Speaker 3 (40:04):
Arians him saying this.

Speaker 7 (40:07):
It feels like a little bit of home cooking, like
he's really trying to, you know, make Baker Mayfield the
guy there and make him feel comfortable. And then you've
got Jason Light the GM saying there's a quarterback competition.
Kind of strange, but we get to see how it
all plays out next.

Speaker 9 (40:20):
All right, this last one, I don't even think I
have to ask you if you care, because I know
you do. King Charles the Third was coronated today, received
all of his gear and trinkets. He's ready for adventure.
What do you think about this one?

Speaker 6 (40:33):
What?

Speaker 4 (40:34):
I don't give it?

Speaker 3 (40:35):
What?

Speaker 6 (40:36):
Like?

Speaker 3 (40:36):
What coronated for? What? Well?

Speaker 9 (40:38):
He was just in theory the King of England, but
then today you know they give him the actual hat
and now he's the actual king.

Speaker 3 (40:45):
I guess it.

Speaker 7 (40:46):
Hasn't he been like in theory the King of England
for a long time. Yeah, yeah, right, So this isn't
like the election, where like it's the president elect and
then they you know, get to yeah a couple months later, now, King,
how long? Thank you? Good to hear from King Charles
via com rex Field tap joining us here?

Speaker 3 (41:03):
What what is like? How long was he the King
in waiting?

Speaker 9 (41:08):
Whenever Old Lizzie passed away? Okay, I mean is that
her whole name? Yeah, old Lizzie? Okay, Yeah, that's good.
Sounds like a cover band. So I had no idea,
but listen, good for him. I don't know what sort
of perks come with all that. Are they related to
like Markle, Megan, Markle whatever. That guy's name is, Harry, Yeah,

(41:29):
well he's his dad. I think I don't know anything
about them. I think if you're American in new care,
you're weird. But yeah, that is true.

Speaker 7 (41:35):
By the way, Prince Harry looks like Carson Wentz with
with less acne.

Speaker 3 (41:40):
That's the only difference. Yeah, you know, I see just
hair features.

Speaker 9 (41:45):
Well, I'm the King.

Speaker 2 (41:47):
NBA playoff action set the tip in the next half
an hour or so, Game three of the Eastern Conference
semi Finals between the Knicks and Heat sham strawani At
tweeting that Jimmy Butler has been cleared for this game,
so that was certainly have an effect on how this
game is played. For what it's worth, Miami is favored
by four as of this moment. Again, about thirty minutes

(42:08):
from tip off. Coming up at eight thirty Eastern, it'll
be the Warriors and Lakers. That series tied at one
game apiece. Game three at Crypto dot Com Arena in
Major League Baseball, two games in action right now, Cardinals
with a three to nothing lead over the Tigers.

Speaker 3 (42:21):
That game.

Speaker 2 (42:22):
In the top of the third, there's two outs. Bomb
of the second inning, Marlins lead the Cubs won nothing.
Cubs at the bat with two out. Houston right hander
Luis Garcia needing Tommy John surgery, will miss the rest
of the season. He was placed on the injured list
after leaving Monday start against the Giants with elbow discover
after throwing only eight pitches. I'm kevin wired.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
What a title?

Speaker 5 (42:45):
Are you ready?

Speaker 9 (42:46):
The garment?

Speaker 1 (42:47):
The Prince with darkness, The Prince of darkness is in
the house. The man up in this pace, Jonas knocks.

Speaker 3 (42:55):
I don't shine choose anymore?

Speaker 5 (42:56):
Yeah, well me God, Jonas Knocks, who coming through your
speakers like a right cross from a boxer that you've
never heard of.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
They run through our ass like wah through a tin
horn man and we could not stop.

Speaker 6 (43:08):
Now live from the tire rack dot Com Studio. So,
Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 9 (43:13):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 3 (43:14):
What is this your first day on the job.

Speaker 6 (43:16):
Here's Jonas Knox getting the fast waying Grandma.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
The bingo game is running to roll.

Speaker 7 (43:33):
So we've got ourselves a team in the world of
sports that if something doesn't happen over the next month
or so, they deserve to be ripped in half. We'll
tell you who that is. Coming up here just a
couple of moments from now, Jonas Knox, Fox Sports Radio.
You can listen to this show as always on the
iHeartRadio app. You can find us on hundreds of affiliates
all across the country and wherever the hell you are
making us a part of your Saturday afternoon.

Speaker 3 (43:56):
We appreciate you doing so.

Speaker 7 (43:57):
We're gonna take you all the way up through the
end of the hour four pm Eastern time, one o'clock Pacific,
and we do it all live from the tire rack
dot Com Studios. Tire rack dot com. We'll help you
get there on unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road
ass protection, and over ten thousand recommended installers. Tire rack
dot com the way tire buying should be. So if

(44:21):
this doesn't happen, I'm just telling you right now, this
team deserves everything that it has coming to them now.
I normally don't subscribe to stuff like that or recommend
stuff like that, or we probably should.

Speaker 3 (44:32):
Say prescribe whatever, What does it matter? Who cares?

Speaker 7 (44:35):
But point is, I'm not a big fan of looking
at championship or bust talk. Like to me, I don't
look at championship or bus talk. I think a lot
of things have to go in your in your direction,
a lot of things have.

Speaker 3 (44:48):
To go in your favor.

Speaker 9 (44:49):
You're gonna need a break, you're gonna need a lucky bounce,
You're going to need some things that happen in your favor,
or else you're not going to be a champion. You
can go through the list of champions in every single sport,
or something happened at some point that went their way.
As great as they were, something happened. Thus they're champions.

Speaker 3 (45:08):
Right.

Speaker 7 (45:08):
If you want to go all the way back to
the Giants Patriots Super Bowl and which the Patriots are
undefeated going into that game. Look, that was the best
team in the league. That's one of the best teams
we've ever seen. Nobody beat them, including the Giants in
the regular season. But what happened. The Giants won a
Super Bowl because they got the bounce, they got a break,
something went their way. Eli Manning got out of a sack,

(45:29):
completed a pass, and David Tyree caught it on his helmet.
It's crazy. You need some breaks, you need things to
go your way. That's how part of this happened. You know,
it's you can call it lucky, you can call whatever
you want. That's how this stuff happens. And you're crowned champion.
But you can go through the list of every champion
in every sport and something went their way at some

(45:51):
point during the course of the season or the playoffs
in which they won a title. Now, one or two
things normally go your way, but when you get like three, four, five,
six different things to go your way, at that point,

(46:12):
there are no more excuses. Nothing will be acceptable except
for championships. And in this point, it's championship or bust.
And I say all that to say this, if the
Boston Celtics do not win an NBA championship this year,
they deserve to be sawed off by anybody in the media.

(46:37):
They deserve everything they got coming to them, because you
talk about getting some breaks to win a championship, everything
has gone in their direction.

Speaker 3 (46:48):
Everything. Now.

Speaker 7 (46:51):
They looked great against Philadelphia last night, but I think
we can all agree Joelle Embiid's not anywhere close to
one hundred percent. And James Harden, he'll give you that
one great game, but you can't count on him consistently.
But that being said, Joel EMBII is not one hundred
percent and that changes the complexion of that series and

(47:13):
changes the complexion possibly of the East. So you say, well,
what about elsewhere in the East? Oh, you mean the
Miami Heat. Yeah, they're banged up too, Jimmy Butler's hobbled,
Tyler heroes in a cast, Victor Oladipo suffered an injury. Like,
they're banged up as well too. Yeah, But I mean
it's like the Celtics were a one seed. They're the

(47:33):
two seeds. So they still got oh no no, no, no, no,
no no no. That one seed. Yeah, they just lost
because their star player was injured and in fact, they
just fired their coach. Yeah, but that's just the Eastern Conference.
What about the Western Conference? Oh? Oh the Western Conference?
Oh you're asking about? Oh you mean where like two

(47:53):
of the top three seeds have been eliminated, like that
Western Conference, that one you know where injury are also
a factor where I mean outside of Denver, who else
do you look at in the NBA and go, well,
that team seems like they're one hundred percent and play.
There's no more excuses.

Speaker 3 (48:12):
This is it.

Speaker 7 (48:14):
Everything is gone in your direction. Everything is landed in
your lap if you're the Boston Celtics, and it's why
people get frustrated. When you see him lose Game one
against Philly, You're like, what, how'd that happen? Everything's there,
the odds would tell you. So everything's there for the
Celtics to win a title. You see them with the

(48:35):
Hawks and they're like struggling against the hawksh.

Speaker 3 (48:37):
What is it? It's weird.

Speaker 7 (48:39):
It's almost like the Celtics play at times like they're
the defending champions and they're not. And so I'm telling
you right now, if you were to look at the
betting odds that have the Boston Celtics at almost even
money at this point in the playoffs, which is not
nor the Boston Celtics are almost even money to win

(49:03):
a title. That's because of everything that has gone on
around him, the injuries, the eliminations, all of it that
is landed in their lap. The betting market is telling
you that team should win a championship and if they
do not, may I reiterate, they deserve to be sawed

(49:26):
off by anybody in the media that's got a voice,
anybody that's right in a column, any fan base. You
could say whatever you want. In fact, you could argue
even if they did win a title, you could look
at it and go ooh, it's kind of flawed. I
mean it's so slanted. That's remember the Raptors Championship. Mark
Cuban came out afterwards and was like, well, you know,

(49:47):
the injuries and everything that went along with it, and
he kind of took some shots, kind of took a
couple of digs, and it's like, well, yeah, but they
want a championship. They did, and you give them full
credit for it. But man, Golden State lost like two
really important players a couple of Hall of Famers got
injured in that series. I mean, there there were some

(50:08):
things that went the direction of the Toronto Raptors. Mark
Cuban wasn't wrong. I don't discredit it, but that's a reality.
Like we can talk about Kawhi Leonard, but things went
in their direction. They got some breaks, they they got
some some lucky bounces via injury, and that's how it happened.
So there are going to be people if this goes

(50:29):
the way it goes and the Celtics won a title
that look at it and go, yeah, but look at
all the injuries and everything that happened around them. Of
course they should have won a title, you know. I mean,
I'm not going to go as far as to say
that it should be criticized like the Lakers half championship.
You know, I'm not, you know, I mean, you know
when the Lakers won the Captain e O Cup a
couple of years ago during COVID. I mean, listen, I mean,

(50:52):
I guess if you want to give him full credit,
I give him a half championship. But you know I'm
more specific than you are. I don't like to round up.
You know, if somebody get me a dollar fifty five.
I don't think it's two dollars. I think it's a
dollar fifty five. And I look at the Lakers and
I think, well, they got a dollar fifty championship. I'll
tell you, you know, the like they got like you know,
I mean, you know, some people get a dollar, some

(51:13):
people get two quarters.

Speaker 3 (51:14):
Lakers got two quarters. They got a half championship.

Speaker 7 (51:16):
So I'm not saying it we're going to go as
that far as to mock that and Lebron James and
his half championship. Not gonna do that, Just saying the
Celtics have everything there at their disposal. It's all there,
it's all on the table, and if it doesn't happen,
they deserve every bit of criticism they got coming to them.
Jonas Knox here Fox Sports Radio. By the way, speaking
of criticism, we don't get a lot of it on

(51:37):
this show. Tell you that right now. A lot of
positive feedback here via Twitter, people really really.

Speaker 3 (53:30):
Oh man, all right?

Speaker 1 (53:31):
Uh?

Speaker 7 (53:32):
Coming up next here though. From the tire rack dot
Com studios. We are going to have ourselves a discussion
about a team in the NFL that constantly gets shaded.
This team constantly gets shade. I don't understand why it happens.
I think there's a lot of jealousy out there. We'll
tell you who they are right here on FSR Jonas
Knox Fox Sports Radio. Coming up in we'll call it

(53:56):
a little over ten minutes from now from the tire
rack dot Com STU videos, we are going to talk
about the cold harsh realities of the National Football League.
These are some cold harsh realities of the NFL. But
at least you can make some money off of them.
I'm just saying, at least you can make some money
off and we'll get into that for you here coming
up and again a little over ten minutes from now

(54:18):
here on FSR. By the way, a quick update here,
I mentioned this and I will get to this. What
we teased here a lot of shade being thrown at
this NFL team, which I don't think is warranted. We'll
get to this in just a moment. Quick update here,
So I reached out to Andy Ferman. I told this
the Kentucky Derby's coming up well, I'm assuming they're going
to have a race, depending on how many more casualties

(54:40):
are at the track, because horses are dropping left and right.

Speaker 3 (54:43):
Apparently they've got.

Speaker 7 (54:45):
The favorite who was scratched this morning, all that stuff
that's happening at Churchill Downs. But they are going to
have a race coming up here in a couple hours.
And Andy Furman is a horse racing expert, like he
used to run horse tracks back in the day, like
he organized me, did pr events, and he did it
for years. That's how him and Pete Rose became friends.
Pete Rose used to go to the horse track all

(55:06):
the time, and so so what were we I reached
out to him and he didn't respond back, and then
when he finally did, he told me that he was drinking.
So he never actually answered the question whether or not
he would be joining us on the air and coming
on the show. So you're probably thinking to yourself, all right,
well you just leave it alone. Well no, maybe you would,

(55:29):
that's how you operate. No, no, no, not on this show.
We're calling him right now on the air. So we're
going to call Andy Furman right now on the air.
We're going to try and get him on the phone.
See if he answers uh, and we will patch this
through again new studios. This may be difficult here, so
let's see. All right, God, this is so fun. Please answer.
I hope he's half in the bag. This guy's scumbag

(55:52):
doesn't respond for two hours and then tells me he's drinking,
doesn't even answer the question.

Speaker 9 (55:59):
You know, he's anakin right now. He sees the eight
one eight area code and he thinks this his boss
is calling. By the way, I've done that to him before.

Speaker 7 (56:10):
He's not going to answer your call. What a dirt bag.
I did that to Andy one time before.

Speaker 3 (56:17):
I'm an idiot. I don't know much.

Speaker 9 (56:19):
He was off one day and I called him from
the studio line because I knew he was going to
panic because he saw the eight one eight, And I
disguised my voice and told him I was I was
with HR and that he was being put on suspension watch.
And he totally bought it. And I didn't realize he
was on speakerphone. He was on speakerphone with his family

(56:39):
in the car going on a trip. I was like,
and Frank Pollock and I, the late Great Frank Pollack
would just bust his chops at any chance we got
because he would buy into everything.

Speaker 3 (56:53):
So it's unfortunate.

Speaker 7 (56:55):
But Andy Furman, just for the record, they just want
everybody know, for the record, he chose drinking today overcoming
on this show. Just want everybody to be aware of
that Andy Furman chose to drink instead of coming on
this show. All right, Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio, And
if you have thoughts on that, you can get me

(57:15):
on Twitter at the Jonas Knox And again you don't
have to follow me.

Speaker 3 (57:18):
I don't care. Just you know, if you want to look.

Speaker 7 (57:20):
At some of the negative feedback we've gotten so far,
you can have fun with that as well too. So
here's what I don't understand. And I don't know if
this is shade being thrown at this team in the NFL,
but I feel like it's happened a couple of times.
So Brandon Bean of the Buffalo Bills talked about just
sort of their roster construction and you know how they're

(57:42):
piecing this whole thing together. Obviously, you know, you know,
not an ideal way to end your season when you
guys lose at home the way they did. I mean,
they got completely manhandled by Cincinnati. I don't even remember
what the final score was. All I know is that
you could tell after one drive that game was over.
That game was over. And if you're a Bills fan,

(58:04):
you know it. You were watching that game and you
knew after that open that scoring drive by Cincinnati, Buffalo
had no chance. They got completely dismantled, they got manhandled.
And it feels like you've seen a clear separation in
the AFC where you've got the Chiefs, you've got the Bengals,
and then the Bills are in Class two with teams

(58:24):
like the Jets who just got Rogers and others. But
it feels like there's been a clear separation and Cincinnati
clearly a different team than Buffalo and heading in a
direction the Buffalo is not. And then you had step
On Diggs have his outburst on the sideline and all
that stuff. And so Brandon Bean talked about their roster
construct and how they're going to build this thing and

(58:45):
you know what they're doing to get better, so on
and so forth, and he was talking with the Buffalo
News and he talked about how they're not going to
go all in, you know, like he's a quote. There's
some moves that we could do that would say we're
all in for this year and then have a tear down,
and they've tried to avoid that. Like his whole point is,

(59:06):
we want to avoid that. You know, we would like
to build this and have success. We don't want to
be a part of any sort of a go all
in for one year and then having a tear down.
And it feels like this is sort of aimed at
what the La Rams did because you see where the
Rams are at, having to get rid of players, having
to cut salary cap and all the other things that

(59:27):
came along with it. Last year was a mess. They
were terrible. I mean, injuries didn't help, but you also
had a coach you didn't know whether or not he
wanted to come back and coach, and all the other
things that came along with it. And the thing I
don't understand about this is if this is a shot
And I'm not saying that this is shade being thrown
specifically from Brandon Bean, but other people have made comments
about this in the NFL, the Rams approach. Whatever you

(59:52):
want to say about what the Rams approach was, it worked.
The goal is to win a Super Bowl. You can say, well,
you know, the Rams are just maxing out their credit
cards and didn't realize they had to pay the bills
at the end. Well, no, they're paying them now and
they're in debt. Yeah, we get it. But they still

(01:00:12):
got what they wanted. They got a super Bowl and
they went to two like whatever you want to say.
And people can look at it and say, well, we
don't want to do that. We're not going to go
all in and then have to tear it down. Okay,
but what if I said you got a super Bowl
out of it. What if you could read into the
future and you're a Bills fan or your Brandon being
and you said, hey, if you take this approach, you're

(01:00:33):
going to win a super Bowl. On the backside, you know,
you may not be as competitive like he can say, now,
you know, we want to keep this thing going for
as long as possible. We want to keep you know,
to have a sustained success, et cetera. Fine, but what
the Rams did did work. Like there's a lot of
teams out there who have tried it and failed. What

(01:00:58):
the Rams did did work. And so when I hear
Brandon Bean or some of these other people in the
NFL like kind of almost you know, give them the side.
I like, we could do it like them if we
really wanted to. Why wouldn't you want to? I mean
less need. They got you know, f them picks, they
got aggressive, they got after it. You know they've got
you know, Malibu house, you know draft parties where people

(01:01:19):
catch COVID. Sean McVay is wearing like a painted on
pair of doctors, smoking a vape at the championship parade.
All that's fun. Mock it all you want. But they
won a Super Bowl, went to another one. To me,
that's a success. Jonas Knox here, Fox Sports Radio. All right,
so we I am hearing reports that we have a
drunken individual live from the great state of Kentucky. Andy Furman,

(01:01:44):
are you there?

Speaker 3 (01:01:46):
All right?

Speaker 7 (01:01:47):
Well, first off, let's let's just address a couple of
things here. Oh boy, why didn't you answer my text
when I reached out to you. What's your problem?

Speaker 3 (01:01:56):
Andy?

Speaker 4 (01:01:57):
I have no problem. I just see I don't want
to go through the killings that you do to media
beating me.

Speaker 7 (01:02:03):
This is such a reality. No, that's not true. That
is not true. Also, all right, So now that we've
addressed that, what.

Speaker 4 (01:02:10):
Are all right I'm ready. I'm ready for you.

Speaker 3 (01:02:12):
Okay, ready, all right, all right, what are we drinking?

Speaker 4 (01:02:16):
You know what, what's the name of that forgot the
name of Hey, well, what was the name of that bureau?

Speaker 7 (01:02:22):
You got to ask your wife the name of your
beard's on the can?

Speaker 3 (01:02:27):
Mango mango something, mango mango cart.

Speaker 4 (01:02:31):
Yeah, that was it. Yeah, I like that.

Speaker 7 (01:02:33):
Yeah, Golden Road, I believe that's a yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:02:38):
Yeah, that's better than winning the Derby.

Speaker 7 (01:02:39):
Yeah, I mean well yeah, well, I mean your can
didn't die, so there's always that, so so at least
get that. Uh Andy, Also, why are so many horses
dying at the track?

Speaker 3 (01:02:50):
Are you responsible for that?

Speaker 4 (01:02:52):
Great question? You're canna ask who's gonna win the race?
I hope the guys that the horse that doesn't die
win the race. That's what's gonna happened. Really, I mean,
I'd say it's a problem with the track. This is
the vet. The track vet kind of is on top
of this right now. And you know, Forte was a
three to one favorite the other day and scratched this morning.
It's crazy, you know, it's unbelievable. This is really it's
sad because a sport like thoroughbird racing. This is the highlight,

(01:03:15):
this is the biggest stage, and it's going to be
overruled by stories about the track or what's happening with
the track. And you're a euthanized. Two horses also already
this week broken legs. They put them down. It's ugly,
it's disgusting. Really.

Speaker 3 (01:03:28):
Yeah. By the way, I do have I read someone.

Speaker 4 (01:03:29):
I read some of the tweets, Ireard, some of the
tweets you atgetting a lot of people think you should
be euthanized as well.

By the way, I do have because listen, I like

Listen, I just listen. I just want you to.

Speaker 7 (01:03:51):
I just want everybody to be here and know that
we're on the up and up here. So this is

care about the environment, so we print off things here
in the studio.

Speaker 3 (01:04:06):
All right, I'll tell you that. All right.

Speaker 7 (01:04:07):
So on this piece of paper, I have a quote
from Andy Furman regarding the Kentucky Derby, and I quote,
at this rate, the jockeys may as well right around
on coffins end quote.

Speaker 3 (01:04:22):
Did you say that, Andy Furman?

Speaker 4 (01:04:24):

Speaker 3 (01:04:25):
Okay, very good, very good. You are you are a
class actor.

Speaker 4 (01:04:30):

up the autograph signings out in front of the Caesar
shops in Vegas. He's also the reason Pete Rose is
not in the Hall of Fame because he was an
enabler to Pete Rose's gambling. He is a Fox Sports

Speaker 3 (01:08:00):
All right, So there is my buddy. Andy Furman is
a class actor in Perro. All right.

Speaker 7 (01:08:11):
It is uh Jonas Knox here Fox Sports Radio. We
are going to get into a cold, cruel world.

Speaker 3 (01:08:17):
That is the NFL.

Speaker 7 (01:08:18):
But at least she can make money off it. That's
coming up next year on FSR. But for all the
latest from around the world of sports makes some noise
for Kevin Wired up on the updates.

Speaker 2 (01:08:29):
Hey, Mattie, you know all I'm all about those horses, right,
You better believe it a sheriff cowboy here. But one
hundred and forty ninth Kentucky Derby sets a race later today.
As we talked about earlier, Forte, the betting favorite, scratched
earlier this morning, following a workout in which trainers met
with state veterinarians. The horse had to work out on

(01:08:49):
Thursday in which he stumbled in He's believed to have
a bruised foot. Tapete Trice angela vampire. We're both listed
at ninety two odds after the withdrawal of forte the
race starting around six to forty five Eastern time. There's
also a report from earlier this morning a three year
old horse called Chloe's Dream had to be euthanized, the
six horse leading up to this event.

Speaker 3 (01:09:08):
There was another one. Yeah, so it's now six. It
was at five at the start of the show. Now
there at six.

Speaker 4 (01:09:13):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:09:14):
I don't know. Maybe there's a problem there, but don't worry.

Speaker 2 (01:09:19):
It's really not a good look over there at Churchill.
Santa Anita had the same issue one a couple.

Speaker 6 (01:09:24):
Of years ago.

Speaker 3 (01:09:25):
Yes, like, what is going on here?

Speaker 2 (01:09:28):
And I'm not against horse racing. I enjoy it the
way many other people do, but that this is a
serious issue. You can't be euthanizing horses left and right
just for entertaining.

Speaker 7 (01:09:35):
Did I'm looking on TV four here and we've got
two hundred thousand people there gambling and drinking as they're watching,
you know, a hearse come out and take another horse
off the track?

Speaker 3 (01:09:48):
Thesis?

Speaker 6 (01:09:48):
All right?

Speaker 2 (01:09:49):
Sorry anyway, So yeah, that's all the horse racing news again.
Six forty five Eastern time is when the Kentucky Derby
is supposed to be run.

Speaker 3 (01:09:59):
NBA knew we're.

Speaker 2 (01:10:00):
About to tip off in the Eastern Conference Semi Finals
Game three Nixon Heat. That series tied at one game apiece.
Jimmy Butler has been clear to play, so that'll certainly
impact this game as the Heat are favored by four points.
The second game of the day, the Warriors and Lakers
tipping off at eight thirty out in Los Angeles, Game
three of the Western Conference semi Finals that is also

(01:10:22):
tied at one game. Aside Major League Baseball, Houston Astros
right hander Luis Garcia needs Tommy John surgery. He's gonna
miss the rest of the season, placing He was placed
on the injured list Monday after he left his start
against the Giants with elbow discomfort. He threw only eight
pitches and two games going on right now in Major
League Baseball, the Cardinals leading the Tigers three to one

(01:10:44):
top of the fifth inning, however, Detroit threatening. They've got
runners on second and third with one out. In the
bomb of the fourth In Chicago at Regular Field, the
Marlins leading the Cubs to nothing. Chicago runner on second,
nobody out. They have a chance to cut in to
that lead.

Speaker 3 (01:10:59):
Back of thank you Jonas.

Speaker 7 (01:11:00):
Thanks Kevin Jonas Knox here Fox Sports Radio coming up

Speaker 7 (01:11:09):
It's happening this weekend in the world of sports, and
it's yours again about twelve minutes from now here on FSR.
I'll say this, it is a cold, cruel, harsh world
out there, that NFL, and then when you sprinkle in
the ability to make money off it, it goes to
another level. So I was looking at just some futures bets,

(01:11:33):
some odds courtesy of our friends at DraftKings. I'll tell
you which one I love, absolutely love Aaron Rodgers sixteen
to one to win MVP. That that right there is
the pet, the bet and the pick of all picks.
Because if the MVP is all about a narrative, and
that's what the MVP has turned into, it's all about

(01:11:53):
a narrative, the fact that Aaron Rodgers could take the
Jets from team that's really good and the only problem
is a quarterback to team that's a borderline playoffs slash
conference championship contender, maybe Super Bowl contender. I think Aaron
Rodgers sixteen to one is MVP is the bet you make,
and he's significantly down the list, like they've got Justin
Fields at sixteen to one. So you can get good

(01:12:17):
odds right now. And for those of you that don't
know what sixteen to one is, all right, you bet
ten dollars, you win one hundred and sixty. Okay, I
would give you all. If you bet one hundred, you
win sixteen hundred. I don't know anybody the bets one
hundred dollars, not anybody I hang out with, Okay. I
speak in my terms, and my language is ten dollars.
That's how I figure things out, or dollars. So a
dollar wins you sixteen So Aaron Rodgers to win MVP.

(01:12:38):
Here's the other one where there's significant money in the
other direction, but it's all about who's pick to finish second.

Speaker 3 (01:12:46):
That I think is funny here. So the comeback player
of the Year should be an obvious one. In the NFL.

Speaker 7 (01:12:50):
It's Demor Hamlin, right, and he's a significant favorite minus
six fifty. So you've got to lay over six hundred
dollars just to win one hundred or over sixty to
win ten. Talked about you know who, they've got second
tied with a few others, Calvin Ridley. What's different between

(01:13:13):
DeMar Hamlin and Calvin Ridley. Well, one guy almost died.

Speaker 9 (01:13:20):
On national television in the middle of a name, in
the middle of a game, and the other guy didn't
play last year, and he's coming back from gambling on
NFL games.

Speaker 3 (01:13:32):
Like one of these things is not like the other.

Speaker 11 (01:13:35):
You got one guy who needed life saving things done
to him so that we didn't see him pass away
in front of our very eyes on Monday night football,
and the other guy who wasn't playing last year because
he was doing seven game parlays for fifteen hundred dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:13:52):
Again, I'm not judging who hasn't done a seven game parlay.
They're fun. I might even do one today on a
bunch of sports I don't even watch. It's fun. But
it feels to me like there's a clear separation between
one and two, the favorite and the runner up here.
I don't know about you. I'm gonna go with.

Speaker 7 (01:14:09):
Demor Hamler on this one, not just because of the money,
but I can't imagine that a lot of voters are saying,
you know, that whole thing with Demor Hamlin almost dying
on the field.

Speaker 3 (01:14:16):
That was cool and all and great story.

Speaker 7 (01:14:18):
But let me tell you something, Calvin Ridley really overcame
a lot because that guy lost a seven game parlay
in a year of his career.

Speaker 3 (01:14:23):
You know we're gonna give it to Calvin Ridley. I mean,
why not.

Speaker 7 (01:14:27):

will be with the man.

Speaker 3 (01:15:50):
Himself, Bucky Brooks.

Speaker 7 (01:15:51):
So, lots of NFL, lots of NBA, we got a
horse race, all sorts of fun stuff here with those
guys here coming up next on Fox Sports Radio. But
right now it's time to close up shop. It's something
we do every single week called this.

Speaker 6 (01:16:05):
Jonas Moron. How could you not get to these stories, Moron,
these are the scraps, and we.

Speaker 7 (01:16:12):
Turn it over to our executive producer Bo Benson to
find out what the hell we've missed.

Speaker 11 (01:16:16):
Bo.

Speaker 9 (01:16:16):
Yes, So, Lamar Jackson, with his new contract, he wants
to throw for six thousand yards this upcoming season with
the Ravens. I want to throw for like six thousand
yards with the weapons we have, he said. I'm not
an individual award type guy or a stat watcher. I
just want to do that because no one has ever
done it, and I feel like we have the weapons
to do it. Talking about Odell Beckham Junior and other

(01:16:37):
additions to the Ravens offensive staff. So I don't know
if I don't know if six thousand isn't the carts
for him. Though.

Speaker 7 (01:16:42):
By the way, if you're the Ravens, do you want
Lamar Jackson throwing for six thousand years?

Speaker 3 (01:16:47):
Yes, I guess old why you do.

Speaker 7 (01:16:48):
But it isn't like Lamar Jackson's gift is what he's
able to do with his legs, like the fact.

Speaker 3 (01:16:53):
That he's a dual threat guy.

Speaker 9 (01:16:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:16:55):
Look, I'm I'm happy for him.

Speaker 7 (01:16:57):
And although people can sit there and say, well, the
Ravens won the negotiation because he didn't get Lamar Jackson
didn't get that guaranteed contract, and Lamar Jackson didn't get
you know, all that money that he wanted that was
in comparison to Deshaun Watson. He didn't win the negotiation. Man,
he did fine for himself for a guy who's not
having to pay an agent fee. The fact that he

(01:17:18):
got the money he got good for him. So we
get to see if Lamar Jackson does get anywhere close
to six thousand. I'm gonna say he doesn't, though, I'm
gonna go out.

Speaker 9 (01:17:25):
On the limb here and say he decided I think,
I think I'll take I'll take the under on that one.
Canelo is going to take on Rider tonight. Oh yeah, yeah,
big fight.

Speaker 7 (01:17:34):
One of the great traditions in all of sports is
the most popular Mexican fighter fighting on Sinco.

Speaker 3 (01:17:42):
To my OW Weekend, it is one of the great
all time traditions.

Speaker 7 (01:17:46):
Now as somebody who's in laws are Mexican, they get
it going for Canelo and the fact that he's fighting
back in his homeland in Jalisco, where where the in
laws are from. My wife's whole family is from Jalisco,
in Mexico. That's going to be a fun watch at
a UFC coming up later on for a title at
bantam weight. Like all of this stuff is happening. You

(01:18:06):
got the horse rays for a non NFL weeknd, a
non football weekend here in.

Speaker 3 (01:18:10):
The middle of May. Not a bad place to be
in front of your television this weekend, not at all.

Speaker 9 (01:18:16):
Eagles head coach Nick Siriani is confident that ninth overall
pick Jalen Carter will be in shape for the season,
saying there's no doubt in my mind that he'll do
whatever he needs to do to be the player he
needs to be, which was the reason he fell to
ninth overall alone, nothing else his work ethic. But the
Eagles are hoping that Jordan Davis and everybody else from

(01:18:37):
Georgia that they drafted can keep Jalen Carter in check
and DeAndre Swift, Georgian Vuldogg and all the other things
that came along with it. If you like, we were
doing this during the week on two pros and a
cup of Joe.

Speaker 7 (01:18:48):
We were looking at just the Eagles depth chart right now,
like if you just went and looked at Philly's depth
chart and again, like this stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:18:54):
Is fluid and things. Could you know there could be
a move here or something like that.

Speaker 7 (01:18:57):
But if you go on to the Eagles depth depth
chart right now and just look at their defensive line
when Jalen Carter is your backup to Jordan Davis and
you've got Brandon Graham Nolan Smith, who is the freak
show at the combine, He's the backup to Hassan Reddick.

Speaker 3 (01:19:16):
Like if you just look at their defense.

Speaker 7 (01:19:19):
Like I said it a week ago, the Eagles are
the team that if you're not a fan of them,
you should be pissed at your organization for not doing
what the Eagles do because they are phenomenal.

Speaker 3 (01:19:29):
They are stacked, they are loaded, and it feels like
they're going to make another great run at ait. I
don't know.

Speaker 7 (01:19:35):
I'm looking at the NFC. People can talk about San
Francisco all they want. San Francisco's got quarterback issues. I
don't know how it's not Philadelphia coming out of the
NFC again.

Speaker 9 (01:19:44):
I mean, the second best quarterback in the NFC is
probably Derek Carr. Listen, I said this during the week.
This is not a crazy thought. I think the second
best quarterback in the NFC's Kirk Cousins.

Speaker 3 (01:19:58):
Like, look at the numbers. He's done more in the
league than Derek Carr has.

Speaker 7 (01:20:02):
And you if you want to go, if you want
to like look at him in comparison to Dak Prescott.

Speaker 3 (01:20:07):
I gotta be honest with you.

Speaker 7 (01:20:08):
As far as consistency goes and health, I'll take Kirk
Cousins over Dak Prescott. Like so, like, if you look
at Minnesota's strategy, like they haven't given kirk Cousins an extension,
and it's like, Okay, I get that they reached their ceiling.
But this year, with Rogers gone, San Francisco's issues, the
only quarterback I would definitively say is better than Kirk
Cousins is Jalen Hurts.

Speaker 3 (01:20:29):
That's it. And that's really based on one year. So
it's going to be fun.

Speaker 9 (01:20:32):
Yeah, that's crazy. The last thing for me here Draft
Twitter fell in love with offensive lineman Cody Mock got
picked up by the Buccaneers. He's got long red hair,
missing a couple of teeth. He's going to wear number
sixty nine with his new teams, So shout out to him.
Way to fit in, man, boy.

Speaker 3 (01:20:48):
I wonder if that year's he's going to be a popular.

Speaker 9 (01:20:50):
Sho oh you got like, especially since they're bringing back
the cream sickles. Oh man, Yeah, by the way, fixed
it on.

Speaker 3 (01:20:59):
He was given Elvis joining us via comrades. Nice. Nice
to hear from the King himself. So I don't like Sam,
Sam gets so goofy.

Speaker 7 (01:21:12):
Sam gets so goofy on the weekends, Like if we're
all playing grab ass and he just starts hitting buttons,
so we just play it off. But yeah, look man,
like that right there is the sign that none of
us who watch sports, or listen to sports, or listen
to sports talk radio ever plan on growing up. The
fact that we all talk just now about a story

(01:21:34):
of an offensive lineman with a mullet missing teeth and
his decision to wear the number sixty nine, and it
was a topic on the show for an obvious reason
that only we know of, Like that on a show,
you none of us are growing up anytime soon. If
you're listening to this program, congratulations, you are immature and
we love it. We're all in this big immature basket together,

(01:21:55):
just sailing away here. By the way, a quick update
on the NBA play game that is currently.

Speaker 9 (01:22:00):
Going on The Miami Heat with a nineteen to eight
lead over the New York Knicks five minutes in change
left to go in the first quarter there in Miami,
So you know, it is strange though you can tell
it's a playoff game in Miami, there's not a bunch
of empty seats.

Speaker 6 (01:22:16):
I don't know what it is.

Speaker 3 (01:22:18):
And I think there's a lot going on in Miami
this weekend.

Speaker 7 (01:22:20):
I think there's like an F one race and there's
like something else happening in Miami, like a bare knuckle
I think Jorge Moss would all had like a bare
knuckle fight going on.

Speaker 3 (01:22:29):
Are the Panthers playing this weekend? Too?

Speaker 4 (01:22:31):
Good?

Speaker 3 (01:22:31):
God?

Speaker 7 (01:22:31):
South Florida is the place to be you can go to.
By the way, is it still snowing outside the Cleveland Er?

Speaker 3 (01:22:36):
Depending on who you ask?

Speaker 6 (01:22:39):
