Speaker 1 (00:04):
All right, all ride yo yo, comment to your live
from Philly. It's the number one rated pulling Tony Fosto show.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Yeah, as always, Polly Fools go here with Tony Fools
go with Tony Huge show today.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
You know so much to get through.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
But first, as we do, you know, we do the teasers,
so you have to watch or listen to the whole thing.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
There's no free rides over here, no no free ride.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
So here we're gonna tell you coming up, we're gonna
tell you about a stat about the Dallas Cowboys that
might be the most damning stat of all yep, and
why Joe Burrow's three touchdown, zero interception performance against Washington
was not even close to good enough.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
Even I can't wait to hear what we have to say,
and I already know what it is.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Yeah, say'me here. And anyway, by the way, you know, Tony,
we got to address this. You know, someone that YouTube
came up to us and told us that we're not
doing enough to get people to comment on the show
and therefore.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Boost the algorithm.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
And you know, I said, well, how come you don't
fix your stupid terrible Algorithmctly, why do we need people
to comment on the show makes no sense.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
We're the ones doing the show. We comment during the show.
Why would we need someone to comment after the.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Show the show's done.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Yeah, exactly, well, lad, comment if you want, and we'll
see if these idiots that YouTube have a point. Probably not,
but exactly Anyway, enough with all that, so much to
get tho, so let's get right into a top story.
Of course, the top story. The Cowboys season already in peril,
falling the one and two after that terrible loss to

(01:46):
the Ravens, and you know, dark Prescott just lashing out
at fans after the game.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Pathetic.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
You know, in a video you could see him telling
fans quote, you can jump off if you want, Tom
referring to all the bandwagon cowboy fans out there. But Tony,
all these Cowboy fans, they shouldn't be angry, should they?

Speaker 3 (02:04):
No, not at all.

Speaker 4 (02:05):
I Mean, all Cowboys fans need to do is just
look at the standings.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (02:09):
Right now in the American League, the Yankees still have
the best record in baseball and have nearly locked up
home field advantage. So Cowboys fans should be very happy
about that.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Terrific perspective that Tony and to be clear, you know,
we know things are not looking too good for the Cowboys,
like especially the defense, which is as torrible. They've allowed
five hundred and fifty seven rush yards for those through
three games since nineteen sixty three.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
And wow, that just says everything, doesn't it, Dony?

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (02:40):
I mean, you know it's bad when people are saying
Dallas and nineteen sixty three in the same sentence.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
I mean, we all know our history and what happened
in Dallas that year, which was pretty much the worst
example of defense in our country's history. So it's a
pretty bad look for the Cowboys, truly.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Perspective there again, Tony.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
And you know, after the loss to Baltimore, Cowboys owner
Jerry Jones was forced to defend why he let running
back Derrick Henry go to the Ravens instead of signing him,
and well, Jerry said the team couldn't afford him, And well,
this is just more poor financial management from Jerry, isn't it, Dony?

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Totally?

Speaker 4 (03:19):
If the Cowboys didn't have enough money to afford Dereck Henry,
then why didn't Jerry Jones just do a GoFundMe or
a kickstarter? You know?

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Great point.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
I mean, people in Dallas already spend hundreds of millions
of dollars on beer and GMC trucks and Walmart brand ammunition.
I think they'd be willing to sacrifice a few hundred
bullets and some cattle to improve their team's terrible rushing game.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
Terrific points all around, Tony and Well.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Now staying in the division, moving to the Commanders and
their rookie quarterback Jaden Daniels, who's receiving a lot of
praise for his you know, so called record setting performance
in the Monday night win against the Bengals. Yeah, where
he completed, okay, a decent ninety one point three eight
percent of his passes. But you know, people they're saying
the command is they found their quarterback here. But Telly,

(04:05):
when you break it all down, this is just the
usual media spin job, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (04:10):
You know, I went back and rewatched Jaden Daniel's performance,
and it was crystal clear his receivers totally bailed him out.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
The whole time I was thinking what would have happened
if his receivers didn't catch all those passes? Has anyone
bothered to consider that?

Speaker 1 (04:26):
Note?

Speaker 4 (04:26):
Let's just say his stat line would have looked a
lot different.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
Yeah exactly.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
I mean, you know, you think about that error passed
to Terry McLachlin.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
Yeah, exactly, it was overthrown.

Speaker 4 (04:37):
If he didn't reach out and grab it, it would
have been an incomplete pass.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
But again, the media, the media exactly anyway, on that note,
moving to the losing team in that game, Bengals kill
be Joe Burrow. He's under fire, and not just because
he looks like nineteen ninety eight M and M. Well,
he got slammed by Shannon Shop and Chris Canty, who
said he should have done more to help the Bengals win.
Now agree about this take, because Burrow put up that graphic.

(05:02):
He threw for three touchdowns three hundred and twenty four
yards while completing seventy six point three percent of his
passes with zero picks. But Tony, these morons out there,
they're looking at the wrong stats, aren't they.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
We all know the stat that matters most for quarterbacks.
Of course, I'm talking about intendeds here you go, which
is an advanced metric that everyone knows about on the
Pro Football Reference website that measures how many yards a
QB intended to throw and right now Joe Burrow is

(05:39):
fifteenth in the league and intended air yards.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
And you know what that tells you, Tony. It clearly
shows he's holding back the team, doesn't it.

Speaker 4 (05:49):
I mean, when you think about it, how can you
do something without intending.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
To do it first?

Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yep?

Speaker 4 (05:55):
Like the other day the collection agent from the electric
company came to my door all angry and said, I
haven't paid my bill in two years. And I said,
hold on, I am intending to pay the bill, and
he said, oh, okay, no problem.

Speaker 3 (06:12):
And that was that.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Such a terrific story and example that, Dony. And you
know the other thing that I saw the media not
talking about it just a very concerning comment at a
Bills quarterback Josh Allen after they beat the Jaguars to
stay undefeated. He said, the team has quote a bunch
of guys that don't care about the stats, They don't

(06:34):
care about the touchdowns. They just say, hey, let's find
ways to win football games. Just a very strange comment,
don't you think, Dony.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
Don't the Bills realize the best way to win football
games is to score touchdowns? I mean, why bother trying
to find other ways to win football games.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
Seems like a total waste of time to me.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Couldn't agree more with Tony And well, now to a
pathetic situation we must address. You know, right now, as
you all know, the Eagles are doing one, having beaten
quality dames like the Backers and the Saints top. Meanwhile,
the Jets also doing one. They're celebrating just because they
beat the Titans and the Patriots and Tony. This is

(07:17):
just very poor formed by the Jets and their fans,
isn't it.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
You know, people who listen to this show know that
I'm a deeply religious person, often prone to quoting Bible verses,
and right now I would like to quote a passage
from Obadiah one p.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
Twelve that is very sacred to me.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
Do not gaze and gloat over your brother's day, the
day when his misfortune came.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
Do not speak.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Arrogantly and the day of their distress. You know, Jets
fans should remember the Patriots and the Titans are their brothers,
the AFC. How dare they glow over their misfortune? I
can only hope that Jets fans repent.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
Just such a beautiful moving statement by you that Donie
and well, thank you. I don't know if we can
even move on after that, but we have to try.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
We gotta try.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
We have to try, and you know, we'll move on
to this.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
You know a lot of people that coming up to
us and wondering why we have yet to address sho
Hey Odani becoming the only member of Baseball's fifty to
fifty club, And well there.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
Is a reason for that, Dony.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
You know, we do honestly have mixed emotions about it.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Don't wait, don'ty.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
You know it pains me to say, but show Hey
joining the fifty to fifty club has been very bittersweet
for me because I can't help but think of how
much money he left on the table by not betting
on himself, using an offshore betting account and taking home
a huge payday. Sure it's a historic accomplishment, don't get

(08:56):
me wrong, but he could have retired on that payday
and now unfortunately he still has to work.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
Yeah. Just so sad to see, Tony. Yeah, but you
know what is great to say. It's the Phillies winning.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
The Alleys for the first time since twenty eleven.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
And you know what they're so great about the story Tony.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
This theme isn't like the Mets of the Yankees with
the giant, massive payrolls. You know, this is the team
that takes itself up, yeah, by its bootstrategy, doing it
the old fashioned way.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
The right way. All what.

Speaker 5 (09:29):
Tale The Phillies have the fourth highest payroll in baseball.
They're paying brace Harper of fortune.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
Oh well, you know it's also fourth highest. The skyscraper
I'm going to throw you off of. Yeah, you know who.

Speaker 4 (09:42):
You have to pay a fortune any woman to sleep
with you?

Speaker 3 (09:47):
Now here you go.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Yeah, yeah, now we can really move on us quiet
moving on, by the way, talking about annoying people, you know,
people come up to us, they complain and they say,
why don't you cover hockey on the show? Well, first
of all, do your paper realize the season ended like
six months ago?

Speaker 3 (10:03):
Long time?

Speaker 1 (10:03):
But yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
Second of all, well, now the season's coming around, so
you're finally getting your wish. All right, we decided, hey,
