Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Let's go sticking. Gee, yeah, let's go, let's go, let's
go baby.

Speaker 3 (00:07):
Night two in a row for us. We filled in
last night for who is that usually Martin that's in
that time slot?

Speaker 4 (00:15):
Martin Martin and Alex Monico.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
Now yep, Alex Monica and Martin wis so we get
a chance back in our normal time slot.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
I'm glad you know everybody's name in the company. Way
to be on that one. Huh yeah I do? I wow, shift,
what do you all? Cranky thing? I'm very crabby today.
I'm very cravvy.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
A heck, I can't to yourself. You don't have anyone
bothering you? What's your problem?

Speaker 2 (00:38):
I can't do this again. I just can't do this
again once again. As we get ready for football season,
all my teams start falling apart, just like clockwork. Seriously,
who who would have thought, if you guys ever wanted
to become like a billionaire, just wait till football season
and then watch all my team just fall apart right

(00:58):
in front of us. The metsal of Wall was what
one and eleven or something like that. They went from
first place to five and a half games out, they're
barely onto the last spot in the wild card. I'm
sure give me another week. They won't hang on to that.
Myke Dolphins. I just, oh my goodness, man. I don't
want to overreact, but it's it's overreaction Sunday night. And

(01:18):
I'm telling you, the Bears look like an offensive juggernaut
with that quarterback that couldn't even play for my inner
mural team in Arizona. For crying out loud, jeez, tore
us apart. I mean, is this what it's gonna be
like all year long? Ward we came, Williams didn't even play,
and we gave you up twenty four points. It's horrible.

(01:41):
And then we run the ball like a million times
for no yards. We couldn't even get it in the
end zone with like our number one offensive line against
going against Federal Express guys and and Paris does and
stuff like that. It is, it's crazy. It drive me.
I don't want to overreact. And then a zone I
know we're just gonna end up losing the Hawaii. My

(02:02):
season's already over on August tenth. Is the quickest my
season's ever ended, is August tenth. You know that don't true.
I didn't even get into September. I didn't even get
into September, and my season's already done.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
I was trying to go back and look at last
week's romanum will run down. Yeah, let me let me
see if I can find this. I hope you don't
still have it, please.

Speaker 5 (02:23):
I mean, twenty four hours ago, Arnie was talking about
how the Dolphins are going to win the Super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
Right right here you go, Here you go, Roman noumial
number five last year could go fifteen and two, probably
thirteen and four wins division schedules too easy. That was
seven days ago. And what you say, uh that twenty
four hours ago?

Speaker 4 (02:45):
Ian? It was like thirteen and four right then?

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Ye, that's Ai. That was a four hours That was
Ai talking.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
Oh okay, okay, Well, I mean it is a preseason game.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
Aren'ting?

Speaker 2 (02:56):
You didn't play stars, but they were playing against guys
like me. I played against the Dolphins. Seriously, the Bears
looked like an offensive juggernaut.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
I mean that.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
I mean, listen, I watched it. They did not look
like an offensive chuck. They scored twenty four points.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
How many times you think they scored more than twenty
four points last year the whole season.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
Well, you guys also fumbled the ball in your own
end zone or.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Oh you were a disastrous Thank goodness, Thank goodness, we
have the backup quarterback we're always looking for. I'll feel
good when Newars comes into the game.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
Not for sure. Again, this is all your own fault.
I mean, I hate to say that.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
You look good in practice. Didn't he didn't. He didn't
he do something great in practice last week? And I
was praising him.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
You basically, if if a Dolphins guy sneeze as you
praise him as it's the greatest sneeze you've ever heard.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
So Newars was what he was three four hundred or
something like that.

Speaker 4 (03:48):
Close?

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yeah, yeah, close? He didn't have a pretty nice throw
in a fourth down late. Boy, what weird thing speaking
of speaking of just the oddities of the preseason, Like,
I wouldn't even be mad if I were you whenever
I look back the way these two teams handled the
final two minutes of the game. So Miami kicks a
field goal. Yeah, with two sixteen how long was left

(04:09):
in the game. There was six twenty two to go
in the game. Miami kicks a field goal to tie
the game at twenty four. The Bears get the football back,
and on fourth and three at the Miami thirty six,
instead of trying to kick a go ahead field goal,
they go for it. Then Miami gets the football back
and they have it fourth and fifteen, and instead of

(04:31):
punting and trying to pin deep, they go for it
on fourth and fifteen, and then the Bears end up
not having an opportunity because they lose what on downs
when they had it at your forty yard line. It
was I wouldn't even be mad. It was like a
comedy of errors too. At the end of that game
with how why are you so fired up about it?
It's you act like you're not gonna be a different
person next week, and seeing you go they're gonna be fine.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
I heard it report they're gonna be okay. The one
thing that bothered me about the Dolphin offense they did
it right off the bat in the first preseason game,
in the first series.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
I mean to a little.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
Dink and dunk and dank and dunk to a five
completions for twenty seven yards. That's not gonna cut it.
I'm not gonna throw the ball down field for crying
out lad, none of this two yard. I could throw
the ball two yards. I don't need to quarterback to
do that.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
I understand your your disappointment, but I mean, it's a
preseason game. Why do you want them to open up
their offense and start doing things here and get one.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
I'd rather just throw it in completion. Just let me
see if you could throw the ball twenty yards downfield.
I'm starting to wonder maybe something.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Starting receivers even play.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
No, Wattle didn't play and Hill didn't play well. Do
we consider Hill a starting wide receiver still on the Dolphins.
I don't know. You had him as the best receiver
in the NFL going into last And the reason I
asked because I didn't know if he's been traded already
with all the rumors out there, I'm sure we'll trade
him for like a high fourth round draft pick, which
was a troubles now. Yeah, that will solve every one

(06:03):
of our Wouldn't that be great if like, oh, Dolphins
start off ohe and one? So they traded Tyreek Hill
two the Philadelphia Eagles for a six round conditional pick
if he plays every game or something like that.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
If not, you get nothing. Sorry, dude, I'm sure it's fresh.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
No, you don't. I mean, I've never I've never been
this disgusted heading into a season. It's August tenth. Do
you know how long I wait for football season? Do
you have to?

Speaker 4 (06:31):
Now?

Speaker 2 (06:31):
I gotta wait for the Knicks to play. I can't
wait for the Knicks.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
I can't.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
I can't give up on bad football like that. Now,
I know how you feel being a Raider fan.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
Well, losers, I don't sit around and tell everyone that
we're going to the super Bowl and then we're going
to finish fifteen to two or thirteen and four.

Speaker 4 (06:47):
Our schedule was so easy.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
Just don't sit here, and you want to call me
a loser, This is loser like mentality that you got
right now, where you're freaking out over a preseason game
in which you're targets didn't even play.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
How many types do I gotta keep telling you, I'm
a bigger fan than you, So I don't care if
it's the first dring, that's the second string, the third string.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
If you're gonna.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Put on that Dolphin uniform, you better go ahead and
play good. You play well, You go ahead and show
your best out there. I don't care who it is
Barista Orever whoever you you play your heart out, geez Barista. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
The third string quarterback though for the Bears, it's kind
of wild.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
Was case Keenum, who I think in twenty nineteen was
a quarterback in the NFC Championship game? Right?

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Who is who was the the quarterback that started for them?
He didn't even go to a real college.

Speaker 4 (07:40):
Did he.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
I think it's Tyson Badget, Yeah, play it's agent so Bagent,
Tyson Bagent.

Speaker 4 (07:45):
Yeah. Now he went to an NAI school.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
He's been with the Fish. Is that a real college.

Speaker 4 (07:51):
Yes, it's Shepherd College.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
Shepherd Fisher. You wouldn't know. I make up a name.
Nobody would not he went to really just corrected you
on it. He went to Smith College. Let's see how
many of our listeners was, oh, that's Smith College.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
He didn't.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
And he went to Sheppard College and he was undrafted
and he stayed in the league.

Speaker 4 (08:08):
I think it's a pretty cool story.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Now with Pali High School, there you go, why are
you so bent out of shape over a preseason game?

Speaker 2 (08:16):
Shepherd College? Where is Sheppard College?

Speaker 4 (08:18):
It's in Illinois.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
Prove it to me, I say, there's no such thing.
I mean have the saga looked out up. I say,
there's no such college. I think they're making it up
and we just haven't double checked it yet.

Speaker 4 (08:29):
Actually it's in West Virginia.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
Oh there you go. You see your Illinois West. And
you know what, I didn't even call you. I just
took your word for it because I didn't even believe it.
And this is the guy that carved us up today,
carved us up.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
He wasn't that great he was, I mean he was
pretty good. He was all right, Oh he wasn't. I
mean he was deacon and dunking as well. I mean
his average yard per completion was five.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
So I can't have five completions for twenty seven yards.

Speaker 4 (08:58):
I can't do that anymore.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Dolphins held on the ball for like fourteen minutes and
they had no points to show for it. It was really
what it was.

Speaker 4 (09:05):
The Matthew just Matthew just sent the text of the
night and words.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
I don't see it. It's the It just came in
and I just happened to have Twitter up when I
saw a lot today and it and it absolutely positively
is on point, He writes. Arnie having a nervous breakdown
over something. Everyone but him has been saying all spring
and summer that the Dolphins absolutely suck. It's finally starting.

(09:29):
It's really hitting Arnie. I have no sympathy for you
right now because we've told you this. But then again,
it's also a little bit Oh, you knew the Dolphins
were gonna suck, right, you just knew the Dolphins every
year and tell me how the Raiders are gonna be great.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
But you knew the Dolphins were gonna suck.

Speaker 4 (09:45):
How the Raiders are going?

Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yeah? You do, Yeah, you do.

Speaker 3 (09:47):
That's you thinking about your talking about the Dolphins. Don't
don't put your anger on me. I didn't do anything
to you.

Speaker 4 (09:53):
You don't see.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
Every year and we tell you, settle down, the Raiders
are gonna be okay.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Raiders are gonna have a better record and you'll have
a chance to go to the playoffs. While halfway through
the season the Dolphins will be two and six. I go,
we really got to win this game this day of
the playoff on Chris, we're doing six. We can't afford it.
Will be one of the Roman numerals who needs to
win this day of the playoff hunt, or who loses it.
They're out. Like the Dolphins. They're doing six Chris, it's

(10:19):
gotta be now, It's gotta be now.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
That's kind of what we were doing last year with
the Dolphins as well too.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Tyreek Hills gone, but we got a six round pick
for him, and when you were really fill up the
holes next year.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
It's your own fault. I mean, I don't know what
else to tell you.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
You're the one that's sat here all all all the
season telling us that you're going to the super Bowl.
And I called Scott, I'm taking the week off. So
you try to tell me that about you know, you get.

Speaker 4 (10:45):
Your little college.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
The boss said, do I still do I still need
time off for the Dolphins super Bowl week?

Speaker 4 (10:50):
Oh, they're pretty funny.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
They're pretty funny. It is. It is is totally bugging
the hell out of me. I just have like at
first time, how many years, I have no hope? But
it is.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
If we have the worst record, you know what I want.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
I I'm the only silver lining is we'll get arch
Manning because I know he'll come out after a year.

Speaker 4 (11:11):
He'll save us.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
Your your dead said that Arch Manning's gonna be a
good quarterback, a number one pick type quarterback.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
If the Dolphins have the number one pick, he'd better
be a good quarterback.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
He's stay in college at quarterback.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and I'm gonna date supermodels. Come on,
come on, He's coming out of gall and Stick just like.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
Pay Peyton Manning didn't, Matt Lioner didn't when they were
gonna be the number one overall pick.

Speaker 4 (11:32):
Yeah, he went back to college. Don't worry about it.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
Trust me, I'll tell you if he has a good
year this year, he'll be coming out. Especially if the
Dolphins out of the door. What's he gonna wait for
for the Browns to have the number one pick?

Speaker 4 (11:41):
Stop it?

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Geez?

Speaker 4 (11:45):
Is this gonna be the whole night?

Speaker 2 (11:46):
No, I just upsetting. I mean, since all gets tenthed,
you know how long I wait for football season? Suppose
I told you, hey, Chris, sorry, but the Raiders are
gonna finish one in sixteen this year. That's what you
got to look at. That's what you got to look
forward to.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
You literally do it. Every single go home is.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
Going to be in the last place in the SEC.
Have a good year, though, Enjoy that when when you're
doing your sideline report, down forty eight to nothing at
alf time, Enjoy it have a good game.

Speaker 4 (12:12):
You literally do it every single year.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
I do not.

Speaker 4 (12:15):
I do not.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
You're frustrated from your own expectations that you set when
you completely and totally ignore it and everything around this
team leading up to the game. And honestly, I mean,
I'm kind of surprised it was even a tie with
how terribly they played at times, and they.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Have it on so just to aggravate me while I'm
doing the show too. Oh gee, another fumble? How many
fumbles can one team have? Whether it goes out of bounds,
it bounces through the roof, I don't know. I just
it's like, do you have any super glue or something?
My goodness, man, they fumble every time? Well you had
two of them, so I want this. Let's check out

(12:54):
how many times the Dolphins fumbled last year.

Speaker 4 (12:56):
I bet you we were in the top three.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
We stink? Are you good? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (13:03):
I justly again kind of have been saying this.

Speaker 3 (13:07):
So is what it is, and I'll point out it's
not just your Dolphins, No, that's Jason B. Diamond pointed
out that the Mets are now one in thirteen since
you said how great the Mets are and wonders if
that's the cause of the losing streak that's currently.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
One and who goes who? That has to be a
record that a first place team. What a first place
team turns around to go one to thirteen. I don't
know any first place team that's ever dropped thirteen to
fourteen games, never in the history of sports. You tell
me where first place teams like, oops, I think we'll
drop thirteen to fourteen games, now give me one, especially

(13:44):
in baseball, where you can sneeze and win a game
thirteen of fourteen. That's pretty tough to do when you're
first place team.

Speaker 3 (13:52):
I mean, they were like a first place team for
like a day though, right doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
They were actually the best team in baseball at one point.
Best team in baseball will just drop thirteen of fourteen.

Speaker 4 (14:04):
I think it was for like a day, though, wasn't it?
Because day, a week, a month.

Speaker 2 (14:08):
Who's counting?

Speaker 4 (14:10):
I mean, people that keep track of these things.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Why does my team always have to You would think
after twelve years of doing the show that I would
get lucky, just like by accident, Like hey look at
that Arty's team but won by accident. Hey, hey, congratulations,
I never win. I never win, never never win just once.

(14:36):
It would have hurt the sports gods to give the
Knicks the championship or the Dolphins the super Bowl, or
God forbid my Arizona Wildcats. I can I win a
big twelve? Or we did? You? Nobody packed twelve titles
and packed ten titles we won in football? Do you
have any idea? I don't think he won one? Digit
zero yeah, zero. We're the only team never to win

(14:57):
it zero. How could you go do all those years
and never win?

Speaker 4 (15:02):
Never?

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Ever ever never? You never win. You're the only team
that never wins. And I Jesus just it tears me up.
It's like a knife in my neck for crying out loud.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
Yet again, just pointing out facts here.

Speaker 3 (15:18):
You're the one that for an entire offseason crams it
down our throat, how great all these teams are gonna.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Be though we got the best quarterback in the world.
What's wrong with you?

Speaker 4 (15:29):
Again?

Speaker 3 (15:30):
I keep pointing out the facts Ian and Mary and
Sagar and myself bring up that you almost refuse, and
you call us losers your face.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
First of all, the day I take the Sagar's advice
is the day I have my tongue ripped out of
my head to be honest with you, Jesus, yes, because
knows what he's talking about.

Speaker 6 (15:50):
My advice to the New Yorkers. You should have been
a Jets fan this whole time.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
Oh yeh, Why that's any better? That's any better?

Speaker 6 (15:58):
By the way, you're talking about how many turnovers can
one team have? In that same division? The Buffalo Bills
had only eight giveaways the entire season, and how many.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
Did How many did the Dolphins have? I know they
had to have more.

Speaker 6 (16:11):
I saw the list of the best teams, so they
were aware.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah, there were nowhere to be found on that. Look
up the worst teams.

Speaker 4 (16:17):
I'm sure.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
I'm sure you go ahead and see them. The Sega
won't tell you the teams he roots for because he.

Speaker 3 (16:23):
Doesn't want give observer man he covers the scores a journalist.

Speaker 6 (16:28):
I only know that's dead because the Chargers set their
franchise record with only nine turnovers the entire season.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
We're the Sega from Switzerland. I mean, come on, now,
what do you mean use Switzer up from Switzerland. I
get me some clogs and let's watch the game together.

Speaker 6 (16:44):
Isn't that Holland?

Speaker 4 (16:46):
Whatever?

Speaker 2 (16:46):
Stop it?

Speaker 6 (16:47):
I think you're getting here and the Mets have only
lost eleven of twelve. Let's not go up to deep end.
It's not twelve of thirteen.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
Yeah, that's right, you got plenty. You're good. You're good. Oh,
thank you for making me feel better. Just dealing with
feels so much better.

Speaker 6 (17:02):
At he immediately follows a seven game winning streak.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
If we lose to the cults, I feel like quitting.
You know what, I should just say enough, I should
just call our boss and say I want to I
want to do the the Clay and fucking Arnie Show.
And I just get into politics, you know what I mean.
I'm just gonna who wants the flood tags give us
a call?

Speaker 5 (17:21):
Now? I thought you determine the schedules.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
Now, yeah, it's right, aren't you the Boss' the boss?
I'm gonna.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
I'm just gonna get into politics now. It's so much easier,
it's so less painful to have any sports.

Speaker 7 (17:33):
Yeah, your approval rating would be negative eighty billions.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
Yeah, well I got to be fine. No, I think
I think it would be good. I can't do sports anymore.
I have too many sports nervous breakdowns watching this stuff.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
Yeah, we can't tell. But again, you it's it's like
a crackcat who says, what's the problem. It's like we're
you're doing crack, Like, yeah, I'm doing crack. Well, there's
your problem. You don't listen to any advice out there,
Like the hell, you're like a crackhead man. You keep
wondering why you're so upset and what your problem is,
but you keep doing and thinking the same way. You

(18:07):
feel like what anyone says. You don't read stats, you
don't dive into. You just all the dolphins in it.
So it's the greatest thing, you know.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
Who I feel like I feel like a dopey cowboy fan,
you know, like we're going winter this year. That's exactly
what you sound like I do. I sound like a
dopey cowboy fan.

Speaker 3 (18:24):
Who you're a dopey Dolphins fan. You're dopey Arnie. It's
just it's a reality of what you and it's every
single year.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Do you make fun of the Dolphin fans like you
do the cowboy fans behind our back?

Speaker 4 (18:35):
No, we don't do behind your back. We do it
right here on the air.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
No.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
By the way, I'm not sitting here trying to come
from some bully pulpit. I'm a Raiders Fane's awesome. Anybody
it's also.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
I mean really you want to go down? Yeah? Right now?

Speaker 3 (18:51):
Your super Bowl trophy is much more dustier than ours. There,
old man, Ah, I'm more than anything else is. But
I love my team. But I don't sit here and
pound of my chest and tell everyone how great they
are and how easy every game is.

Speaker 4 (19:05):
They're going to play this year.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
And then get mad when they die an exhibition game.
You're it's a clown show. Right now, I want to
quit the show. I want to go home, and I'm
home right now. You're really throwing a fit? He sounds
like a five.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
Years I told you because I'm a real fan.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
You guys, this is the dumbest thing you've ever acted
mad about in your life.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
They just look so bad. And it wasn't even Caleb
Williams out there throwing it around. It was some some
guy from some high school. It's just disguy. Can listen.

Speaker 3 (19:33):
You can keep making fun of Tyson baging Alli. What's
his name exactly? It doesn't matter where did he.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Go to school? Matter?

Speaker 3 (19:40):
He's a second string maybe third street quarterback for the
Bear picture. Guys, how many of your start. You know,
I'm not gonna try to help you. You're right, your
team sucks.

Speaker 7 (19:50):
Man.

Speaker 2 (19:51):
You should go jump off your roof if we wow,
if we lose to the Colts, I just I don't
know if I could take that, because they're they're supposed
to be worse than us.

Speaker 3 (20:01):
No, they're not supposed to be worse than you. They're
supposed to have the exact same record as you. You
guys have the same over under number. Right now, you know,
maybe I'll.

Speaker 4 (20:09):
Be a Raider fan this year.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Let's go Raiders.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
We don't well, I can't say we. I don't ever
react to crap like you are right now. You needs
settled down, man, all right, we gotta take a break
when we come back. Listen, do you want to postpone
your Hall of Fame ceremony? You had five new members tonight?

Speaker 2 (20:27):
I did five. Vacch you more than that, but I
just stopped writing him.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
I was so aggravated.

Speaker 3 (20:31):
And then we got to dive into what we learned
from the weekend that was is the NFL true Week
one of the preseason is a rap? And we two
coming up we're diving into at all right here on

Speaker 2 (21:55):
Since since we don't have a producer. I looked it
up myself. Patriots had the most fumbles. They had thirty,
Cowboys had twenty nine, and the Dolphins had twenty eight.
So there you go, right up there. I knew they
were top three. How did I guess that, Chris? How
did I guess that?

Speaker 4 (22:11):
I mean, because you watch them, you would know right
every game?

Speaker 2 (22:16):
I think two, I had all twenty eight. I'm pretty sure.

Speaker 4 (22:20):
Why do you? Okay?

Speaker 3 (22:22):
A couple things here, Roger the engineer hits us up
and says, Arnie's talking about practice. He's talking about practice.
That's not bad. I did think that it was interesting.
What a friend of the show sooner Lisa asked on Twitter,
which is the best way to get in touch with
the program at Stinking Genius one. I'm at Plank Show.
Everyone go follow us at Fox Sports Radio. She writes, Arnie,

(22:43):
I hope your wife comes home soon to administer your meds.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
Yeah, she's been gone a while too, man, like two
well not two weeks, like a Week's why I know
that long? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (22:53):
I don't know if like this is some bit that
you're putting on or what.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
No way, people get upset, Chris. You know that people
do you know people get upset just based on what
like reports come out of practice, like oh yeah, so
and so was to attended practice. You know better than
anybody when it's crazy in college.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
Yep, yep, because you have such a little access in
college too.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
So I feel you. But and there's only three and
there's only three preseason games.

Speaker 3 (23:21):
I don't think there should be any more than one.
After what we watched this past weekend.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
What bothered me about the Dolphins offense? They came right
out the bat and they did the same thing with
two of the little passes, the dings and dunks, and
I'm like, no, and why are we playing for a series?
It'd be like everybody else if Joe Burrow could play
the whole first quarter or a couple of series, then
you could play a couple of series. And my goodness, man,
I just don't understand. And mc McDaniel just looks like

(23:48):
a deer in the headlight. I does he know what's
going on? Seriously, I don't think you can find the
football field. There's somebody that point him in the right direction. Arnie.

Speaker 3 (23:57):
It's do you want to put two hours out there
and risk him taking a shot in the preseason, just
to make you feel a little bit better about this team.

Speaker 4 (24:06):
No, that would kill me to that rip mcdown.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
What do you think doing out there? What's wrong with you?
Putt him out there in concussion?

Speaker 3 (24:12):
So you literally just in the span of yeah, two
minutes and thirty seconds, con get rid.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
Of the ball, don't stand there like a statue. Let's go.

Speaker 4 (24:21):
Then you won't get it.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
And then there was there was a little bit of
sympathy out here for you, mister Nobody writes, actually sort
of understand Arnie's frustration.

Speaker 4 (24:31):
I became a Yankee.

Speaker 3 (24:32):
Fan in twenty two thousand and three, but lookas what's
happened since two thousand and nine. Look at where they
are now. How Steinbrenner's love of money and letting Aaron
Boone mismanage the team drove me to be a Dodgers
fan last year?

Speaker 2 (24:44):
What the Yankees to the Dodgers?

Speaker 4 (24:47):
What is up with that? I like him, He's smart,
he goes with the good teams.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
Did you say I was an Oklahoma fan but now
I'm a Texas fan.

Speaker 4 (24:54):
Now I'm a Texas fan.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
I'm not about that direction.

Speaker 4 (24:56):
I had an Oklahoma State fan too.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
I just wi and you know, throwing my alma monitolsa
as well. All right, listen, we'll try to calm Arnie
down tonight. We have a Hall of Fame ceremony coming
up in our number two. Todd Furman will be in
an hour number two as well, and we'll dive into
what we learned after week one of the preseason and
Hour number three. But first, for anything, it's too carried
away here, Steve disagre with what's trending?

Speaker 4 (25:18):
What's going on? Gentlemen.

Speaker 6 (25:20):
By the way, a little context on what I mentioned
about Buffalo last year. They only had eight turnovers the
entire season. Do you remember when Buffalo lost the first
of their four straight Super Bowls against Dallas Troikman wins
at the Rose Bowl. Buffalo had nine turnovers.

Speaker 4 (25:36):
Just in that game.

Speaker 6 (25:38):
Oh nine in a Super Bowl?

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Geez.

Speaker 6 (25:41):
The entire season last year for the Bills only eight turnovers. Wow,
they forced thirty two. They had thirty two takeaways, so
they were by far the best in turnover differential. Buffalo
tomorrow last year? What will tomorrow bring? Because that's one
of the teams like Lamar Jackson the postseason? How many
bites at the apple are they gonna get as we

(26:04):
get toward twenty twenty five's regular season. Keep in mind,
and if you've seen football this week, you know there
is a new touchback rule comes out to the thirty
five and not the thirty trying to encourage more returns. Well,
today in Chicago nine total kickoffs, only two touchbacks, and
then in La ten total kickoffs, only two touchbacks. Yesterday
the game in Minnesota eight kickoffs, only one touchback, and

(26:27):
yesterday's game in Buffalo.

Speaker 2 (26:29):
In effected the game already. We didn't even realize it.
Vegas didn't adjust the over unders and what ten of
the twelve games went over.

Speaker 6 (26:36):
Yeah, even if it is a touchback, you're starting a
drive that close to field goal range. With the way
these kickers are booting, that's another reason for more seger.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
How many times did the ball start at the twenty
yard line back in the eighties, Yeah, shot.

Speaker 6 (26:48):
Oh god, it's even worse because if you had a
penalty on the return, oh, ten yard line, they would
make it first and twenty five for a personal foul,
not first and ten twenty five. The drive anyway, in
Buffalo thirteen kickoffs yesterday and only three touchbacks. So we
are seeing that and something to update and look for

(27:09):
as we go toward the season. There's also something that's
can I just say the Kings haven't been worked out
yet about the new uh not using the chains to.

Speaker 3 (27:19):
Oh yeah, that's virtual spotting spotting, the virtual first down.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
They were supposed to use it. They're like, whoa, we're
gonna go watch it. Uh, take our word for it.

Speaker 6 (27:26):
It's a first time, it's right, So fans are sitting there.
There's a delay that seems a lot longer than actually
just bringing the old guys with the chains out to
the middle of the field.

Speaker 4 (27:35):
And then they didn't even show the thing on the board.

Speaker 6 (27:37):
So yeah, some kinks.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
Take take our work for It's like soccer, We'll let
you know what the game ends. No, it's not like soccer.

Speaker 6 (27:44):
Soccer has great animation to actually, you know, chip in
the ball, it didn't go over the goal line or something,
or this guy was offside and here's the arm and
then you know, NFL needs this. We only got what
two games left for each team and then the preseason
going to be over already. One good thing is, as
the Raiders discovered this week, no overtime in the preseason.
Remember it's illegal. Miami at Chicago finished in a tie

(28:06):
today twenty four all great news for the Dolphins, though
in the fourth quarter they did kick a fifty six
yard feugal Jason Sanders, and they didn't lose the game,
unlike I don't know if you've been listening to the
first half hour the show.

Speaker 2 (28:17):
No right, they actually did tie the game.

Speaker 6 (28:20):
They tied a meaningless game. The Chargers beat New Orleans
twenty seven to thirteen, meaningless.

Speaker 4 (28:25):
Now let's talk to the guys that are getting cut tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
No, I'm saying the win or.

Speaker 6 (28:29):
The loss is.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Spencer.

Speaker 6 (28:34):
Spencer, the Saints starting quarterback today. He was sacked three times,
had a fumble. He was seven of eleven fifty three yards,
Tyler Shuck a touchdown and an interception.

Speaker 4 (28:44):
I guess wrong. The Saints aren't the worst. The Dolphins
aren't well.

Speaker 6 (28:47):
The Saints aren't great. Let's just say that they had
one touchdown, three turnovers, punted six times, seven penalties, sacked
five times today.

Speaker 4 (28:55):
They are pretty bad.

Speaker 6 (28:57):
At one point, the Chargers the length of their drives.
They had a touchdown drive that was about six and
a half minutes six The other five drives were about
eight minutes total. Yeah, there was a point mid third
quarter where the charge is only about one hundred yards
of offense and they were winning the game at the time. Again,
five sacks and they wind up winning twenty seven to thirteen.

(29:17):
The bad injury news potentially for the Eagles that Pro
Bowl guard Landon Dickerson was carted off at practice in
apparent leg injury. Titans running back TYJ. Spears was injured
in a game this weekend and expected to be out
for a few weeks with a high ankle sprain. Colts
quarterback Anthony Richardson returned to practice Saturday after Thursday's dislocated
finger on the sack WNBA. Minnesota won at New York

(29:40):
justin Rose the golf winner in Memphis in a playoff
NASCAR victory for Shane van Gisberg, and at Watkins Glynn
the Sunday night ballgame to the Cardinals three to two
over the Cubs. Milwaukee won its ninth in a row,
beating the slumping Mets seven to six on a solo homer.
Bottom of the ninth wins for Houston and Philadelphia. Toronto
beat the Dodgers five to four in LA with three

(30:00):
late solo homers off the bullpen San Diego six to
two over Boston and Cal Rawley in Seattle hit his
forty fifth home run of the season. Were not yet
to mid August seven straight wins for the Mariners beat
Tampa Bay six to three.

Speaker 4 (30:14):
Back to you, thanks Steve. I just saw this note
because I didn't know this was still a thing.

Speaker 3 (30:19):
AOL is going to disconnect it to dial up internet
service on September thirtieth to twenty twenty five.

Speaker 4 (30:25):
Listen.

Speaker 3 (30:25):
I'm in a rural area. I know there's a lot
of people listening in rural areas. I didn't realize we
still had dial up internet. I don't know if anyone
that still has a phone.

Speaker 2 (30:32):
To be honest with you, i'd like, I hope I
don't have that. I hope I don't get my internet.
What am I gonna do? Geez, I don't even know.

Speaker 3 (30:43):
Like they basically have disc We used to have to
have these ISDN lines to do our show, and they've
pretty much dis continued. Knows you call a phone company
and say hey, I need an isd IN line, You'll
blow their mind. I didn't know anyone was still using
dial up internet. I wonder how many people still do remember.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
When you signed up and then you'd walk away from
about ten minutes to come back to see if you
if it went through all the stuff right right here,
like music, terrry are your ears because you're connected? Hey?

Speaker 3 (31:10):
And then one other non football note. I didn't realize
how bad it's been for both the Mets and the Yankees.
The Yankees are just twenty and thirty one since June twelve.
The Mets have gone fifty three straight games without a
pitcher going past six innings. And by the way, it's

(31:30):
a bar still article that just dropped. They've lost eleven
of twelve. They're eighteen and thirty one since June twelve
and are just holding on to the final wild card
spot right now, a game and a half ahead of
the Reds.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
Of all people, I think that's what I got the
time off to go watch them in the World Series. Yeah.
Remember when I said I'm moving to Connecticut, I'm gonna
go ahead and watch them in the World Series. Yeah,
this is wild, man, It's kind of good.

Speaker 3 (31:59):
The Dodgers, though, this baseball season has gone through some
wild twists and turns. You know, we just had right
before the trade deadline, the Dodgers going on an incredible skid,
and they got beat today, but they took two of
three from the first place Blue jayser feeling a little better,
but they lose one game and all of a sudden,
the Padres win today and boom, it's a two game lead.
And that's all they've got right now. What was the

(32:20):
Seger's note on how often the Dodgers and the Padres
play over the next few months.

Speaker 6 (32:24):
It's next weekend and the weekend after that.

Speaker 4 (32:27):
Yeah, the next two weekends they played each.

Speaker 6 (32:29):
Other, Andres have won eleven of fourteen. They are as
good the last couple of weeks as the Mets are bad.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
Oh wow, you don't have to go there.

Speaker 6 (32:37):
That's all four numbers here. Yeah, it's called shot by
the way. And the Dodger lost today. LA left sixteen
men on base.

Speaker 4 (32:45):
Seems like a lot lost pay.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
There was a way wait, there was a stat. I
did the Dodgers have ten walks.

Speaker 4 (32:52):
Or something like that.

Speaker 6 (32:54):
One reliever, the guy that won it, walked five.

Speaker 2 (32:58):
They said that they had not won a game since
nineteen oh one. When that has happened or something like that.
I have to look up to stat. It was something crazy.
The Dodgers drew ten walks.

Speaker 4 (33:10):
No, they gave they gave up ten to Segers.

Speaker 3 (33:12):
That what it was?

Speaker 4 (33:12):
No, no, no, The Dodgers drew thirteen walks today. Yeah,
they thirteen.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
They had thirteen walks and they didn't win a first
time that's happened since like nineteen oh one.

Speaker 6 (33:20):
But the guy who's the closer for Toronto lasted less
than an inning walked five. I got credit for the win.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
How you walk five batters?

Speaker 3 (33:29):
Jeff Hoffman is still get credit for the win? Oh well,
Dodgers lost today five to four. There is our baseball
segment for the night. Waitit, hold on, there is a
Roman numeral on this Do you want to go ahead
and have me get it out of the way for you?

Speaker 4 (33:41):
Hear it is? Uh, let's see here. It's pretty it's
been a typical. Where was Roman numersimal? Sixteen?

Speaker 9 (33:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (33:48):
I even put baseball. I didn't really want to talk
about it since the NAT we're losing. If the Mets
were winning, I'd spend a half hour on baseball, But
they're they're not winning, so why would I want to
talk about it.

Speaker 3 (33:57):
We'll get to your tweets coming up next. Hall of
Fame ceremony for the preseason Hall of Fame in exactly
twenty minutes from now with Darnian Plank on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
All right, it's Darnian Plank Comedy live for the Fox
Sports Radio studios. Do you want to uh, do you
want to get even more triggered tonight? Or do you
want to read some tweets?

Speaker 2 (34:23):
Well, you got more bad news for me. No, no, no,
I don't got on Twitter. Dan sent that whatever you
call it, a meme with the where Zach Wilson throws
the ball like two yards short of the open receiver
and it is just over and over again. In my face,
it's just over and over again. It's give me a

(34:44):
headache for crying out loud. And I like to have
Twitter up in case we get a lot of tweets.
I'm trying to read them, all right. It's pugging the
hell out of me. Yeah, it was not good, but hey,
here's the good news. Apparently you have a really good coach.

Speaker 3 (35:00):
This is Ben Johnson, the head coach of the Chicago Bears,
talking about Mike McDaniel after the game.

Speaker 10 (35:07):
So I've got I mean, I've always respected him from Afar,
I mean when he was at San Francisco to now
in Miami. Some of the stuff, in particular the run
game is it's next level.

Speaker 2 (35:17):
There's no one else that does it quite like he does.

Speaker 10 (35:19):
He finds a way to find space to the inside
and you know, perimeter runs.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
He can dash teams that way.

Speaker 4 (35:27):
So he is he is a little bit of that
mad scientist.

Speaker 10 (35:29):
And so there's a lot of respect there just from
a schematic standpoint.

Speaker 9 (35:32):
And uh, and I know they've got.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
A good one there.

Speaker 10 (35:35):
Shoot, when when two has been healthy, they've been rolling,
and they've they've been a playoff team really for all
three years. So I think he does a great job
with that crew and looking forward to our relationship continue
to grow.

Speaker 4 (35:49):
What part of the playoffs were they last year?

Speaker 2 (35:51):
I must have missed that. But he got hurt too,
He got hurt last They've been the playoff team for
the last three years. Oh except for last year. Right,
that does count, I guess.

Speaker 3 (36:01):
I mean it didn't stop you from telling us they
were going to the playoffs all season long.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Yeah, they're just a well oiled machine right now.

Speaker 3 (36:07):
They just look like they're just I don't get you
sometimes like you feel this way after a twenty four
to twenty fourth tie in a preseason game.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
There's people that were marvels played before preseason games. But
might be that guy.

Speaker 3 (36:21):
Why you're the obnoxious, over the top. We're not gonna
lose a game. We're going fifteen, fifteen to two. You're
fighting with me last week, I'm a moron. It's the
easiest schedule that you've bet.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
It is still a easiest and I thought it was
an easy schedule and then and we're all like, dude,
you're not even a favorite in week one, and then
you come in here after one preseason game once again
was a tie, and you're crying look up to Can
you look up to see who has the easiest schedule
for the upcoming season?

Speaker 4 (36:47):
Do you know how to do that? Can you? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (36:48):
I just I'm gonna google easiest NFL because I got
I have to think that the I mean, obviously is
gonna be based on last year's records, but I gotta
think that Miami as the easiest out of anybody, if
not definitely top three, because it's it's so damn easy.

Speaker 4 (37:06):
It's not even funny. It's disgustingly easy.

Speaker 3 (37:09):
It's it's actually not that it's not ranked that high.
The easiest schedule, apparently is the San Francisco forty nine ers.
Of course, it's preceded by the Saints, the Patriots, the Titans,
and then the Panthers, the Dolphins. Let's see here, you
guys are actually you're the twenty first didn't you do this?

(37:29):
Did we do this last night?

Speaker 4 (37:30):
I don't.

Speaker 5 (37:32):
Do something similar? Yeah, well we were looking up the
Colts revert super bowlds. Yeah, I've got us pulled up too,
And Dolphins are at twenty one. The Jets have an
easier schedule than the Dolphins in their own division.

Speaker 4 (37:43):
Yes, and possible?

Speaker 3 (37:45):
How is that? And so do the Bills? Good so
the Patriots. In fact, you have the hardest schedule in
the AFC East.

Speaker 4 (37:52):
How's that possible?

Speaker 3 (37:54):
Because people actually dig into the numbers. But strength of
schedule is dumb.

Speaker 4 (37:59):
I mean it to be. In college football, it's even
dumb anymore because teams change so much.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
I mean last year, if you would have had on
your schedule, I don't know, the Niners, you would have
been freaking out. It's like, oh my gosh, we got
to play the Niners and they ended up not being
very good last year because of injuries. So I don't know, man,
I'm not if you had the if you had the
Commanders on your schedule last year, you probably thought we're
gonna kick the snot out of them, and they ended
up being a team that went to the NFC Championship Game.

(38:25):
So I don't get too carried away about it. You
You might be right, Arnie, they might end up with
the easiest schedule. What do these number nerds know?

Speaker 11 (38:32):
Right?

Speaker 2 (38:32):
They don't. They don't know what I know, Chris, Right,
they don't don't break it down like the way I
do it today. I'm like a MI T graduate with
the numbers in football and m I T graduate. Yeah,
so that's why I went to Arizona. That's actually better
than the MIT.

Speaker 9 (38:48):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (38:49):
That's what they say, Arnie, that's what they say. All right,
let me hit some of these tweets.

Speaker 2 (38:53):
Yeah, we got a lot tonight.

Speaker 4 (38:54):
At playing show at Stinking Genius One.

Speaker 3 (38:56):
Arnie of course always sends out the tweet before the
program where should we start? And I found this fascinating
from Jerry. Jerry, writes Aaron Glenn. Changing the culture for
the Jets, Accountability for those who don't get it, and
the last of the NFL preseason games for Week one,
So he wants you to get all over the Mets
and the Yankees. He wants us to be all over

(39:18):
the NFL preseason games for Week one. But Jerry, more
than anything else, thinks what we saw in one preseason
game kind of like you're filling with the Dolphins is
a sign that the Jets have turned the corner.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
If I was a Jets fan, I'd be happy over
the moon. I mean, how many times can you be happy.
It's certainly not during the regular season, so you might
as well be happy during the preseason.

Speaker 4 (39:40):
I mean, it was a good win.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
They played well. I mean, again, it's the Jets, though.
We'll see if they just stuff destruck, but they did
look pretty good. How disgusting would that be if the
Dolphins finished worse than the Jets fighting it out for
last place, Gosh, that would just suck.

Speaker 4 (39:56):
Kind of what the odds makers think is gonna happen.
I will add this. I think it is funny. I
spend way too much time on Twitter today.

Speaker 3 (40:04):
It was kind of a just disconnect day because football's
coming up and college football starts in two weeks less
than two weeks now thirteen days, and I just kind
of sent around and read everything on social media. Man,
we overanalyze everything. I saw someone that's like, look at
Justin Fields when he's walking on the field. He's messing
around with his jersey too much. He just doesn't seem comfortable.
I'm like, what are we what are we doing?

Speaker 4 (40:25):
Guys?

Speaker 3 (40:27):
No, I'll find it for you. It's like he's tugging
in his jersey. He never seems comfortable. It's something wrong
with him. And I thinking to myself, listen, I get
it if you're trolling another team's fan base and say
you're a I don't know you're you're a Dolphins fan.
You're trying to get after the Jets or vice versa.

Speaker 4 (40:42):
Whatever.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
I just guys, he looked pretty good.

Speaker 9 (40:45):
Now.

Speaker 4 (40:45):
I'm not here to.

Speaker 3 (40:46):
Tell you that means he's gonna have a great regular
season or that the Jets are gonna have a good season,
But for one night, I don't feel kind of good
about the way that series went for the New York Jets.
Just don't freak out like Arnie is right now, Holy smokes,
all right, we're opening up the door to the preseason
Hall of Fame. Next right here on Fox Sports Radio,
you're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio Hour two. Tarning

(41:09):
Plank come to you live for the Fox Sports Radio studios,
border to border, coast to coast, wherever you may be.
Thanks the iHeartRadio app. Make is one of your presets
on the app, and of course all of our great
affiliates across these great states. I drove an electric car
on a road trip, which was the worst thing I

(41:30):
could have ever done in the in the Midwest, we
don't have a lot of charging stations around these here.

Speaker 4 (41:35):
How does it get like.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
Twenty miles to the charge for full charge?

Speaker 3 (41:39):
This full charge basically gave me maybe two hundred miles
full charge, so it wasn't about But you never get
to a full charge. No, Because you get to a
full charge, you're sitting there for an hour and a half,
so you get to about eighty percent. So that way
to keep your charge where it is eighty percent, you
gotta have the ac off. You can't be going too fast.
But I got to listen. I got to go old school.

(42:00):
I didn't have I didn't have my phone obviously, I
didn't want to use anything in the car. I was
listening to AM radio and find a Fox Sports radio
all over the place. Long live amplitude modulation.

Speaker 2 (42:11):
There you go. I have a hybrid and I never
ever now charge it up.

Speaker 4 (42:16):
I just do you actually have to charge it? Do
you have a no?

Speaker 2 (42:20):
If I charge it, I'll get like twenty miles to
the charge. But you do you actually have a plug
to charge it or not?

Speaker 9 (42:25):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (42:25):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely you do. Okay, we have a hybrid.

Speaker 4 (42:28):
Which will get it.

Speaker 3 (42:29):
So I need someone smart to explain this to me
because it's never made any since we have a hybrid
that you don't have to plug anything into.

Speaker 2 (42:37):
Do you know how it charges?

Speaker 4 (42:38):
Magic? How does it charge?

Speaker 9 (42:41):
Ian?

Speaker 4 (42:41):
Do you have a hybrid? You don't want to drive
a hybrid that can answer this question, because it blew
my mind. I had no idea.

Speaker 5 (42:46):
So my mom used to can I guess because I
go ahead? I kind of remember something where like just
by driving, it technically charges that you're getting a certain speed.

Speaker 3 (42:55):
You've got to hit the brakes, is what charges hit?
What it's not like when you're just sitting still at
a stop sign. When you're driving, and if you hit
your brakes, it charges it. It makes no, sense, I
was around to ten percent. How do you get it
up to one hundred percent? Just put your foot on
the brake. What's the talking about? Like whenever, I don't know,

(43:17):
I'm telling you the truth.

Speaker 2 (43:19):
That's not right.

Speaker 4 (43:20):
What are your knuckleheads? I'm dealing with knuckleheads.

Speaker 3 (43:23):
I just bought my wife a twenty twenty five car.
I drive it regular rich right, you're right, stay at home. Wow,
your troph trophy husband, look at you.

Speaker 2 (43:34):
I'm working with twenty five.

Speaker 4 (43:35):
Okay, I'm working. What's that go ahead?

Speaker 5 (43:38):
I just looked it up.

Speaker 7 (43:39):
So basically, when you break your car, the motor is electric,
I'm guessing, and then it's gonna act as a generator
and it's gonna basically convert it into energy.

Speaker 4 (43:48):
That apologize Arnie for me being right.

Speaker 2 (43:50):
No, they did that, But it doesn't go from ten
to one hundred percent.

Speaker 4 (43:53):
Yeah no, coming down a mountain.

Speaker 7 (43:55):
But I try to remember, like, you have gas in
it that's probably gonna power the there exactly, which is
going to convert it into energy, which is going to
charge the car.

Speaker 4 (44:06):
But I will say for a fully electric car, I
don't know it.

Speaker 3 (44:10):
Obviously, it's probably a little different story on the West
coast because there might be a few more chargers. Wouldn't
suggest driving an electric car on a road trip to
the Midwest, just.

Speaker 4 (44:18):
You know, got a little work to do on charge.
You know, they're bringing back the Scout. That's what I
want in the year. A Scout. Yeah you ever seen that?

Speaker 3 (44:26):
No?

Speaker 5 (44:26):
What was this?

Speaker 4 (44:27):
It was like from like fifty years ago? Well, what
was it?

Speaker 3 (44:31):
It's like it was a Chevy was It was like
like a Bronco type car, but it was just Scout motors.

Speaker 4 (44:38):
Okay, yeah, check it out.

Speaker 3 (44:40):
Man.

Speaker 4 (44:40):
It's a folk swagging, is what it is.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
Yeah. So I'm thinking I'm waiting on that. They're pretty
pricey though, so I don't know if my wife's gonna
let me get one. I am a trophy husband. You
are a trophy husband. I already have to me being rich.

Speaker 4 (44:51):
I already had two Broncos, so forget about that.

Speaker 2 (44:54):
See if you're getting on me for having a twenty
twenty five, twenty twenty five, look at you, man, twenty.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
I mean the twenty twenty fives are already out, so
you're getting the deals already. They're on the twenty sixes.
So yeah, any of the twenty seventh in some places.

Speaker 4 (45:07):
But did you get a Lamborghini or something? Yeah, I
got a Brandon Ferrari.

Speaker 2 (45:11):
There you go. They pay you well out there. Yeah, hey, man,
come living what do you call it?

Speaker 4 (45:17):
Googlegles be Oklahoma, Come living.

Speaker 3 (45:19):
Goldsby Oklahoma, and you'll be able to have that same
richness you keep trying to be all a hoy Floyd.
You got to be out there in Connecticut where they
just take all your taxes.

Speaker 4 (45:27):
Yeah, that's the problem.

Speaker 2 (45:28):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (45:30):
Some good stuff on Twitter during the program tonight. It's
tinking genius one. I'm at Plank show. Everyone to go
follow us at Fox Sports Radio, Rick Flair Wrights. If
the Colts win, then Arnie should smoke weed while doing
the show.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
Next week.

Speaker 3 (45:42):
Well, I mean it's not till it's not till the
start of the season. That's week one. You guys don't
playing each other in the preseason next week, are you?

Speaker 2 (45:48):
No?

Speaker 4 (45:48):
No, it's weak one of the regular season.

Speaker 2 (45:50):
By the way, it's figuring speaking about punishment, and you
didn't get to this last night, Roman numeral number nine
Fantasy football. Did you see that? You know how they
come up with crazy things to do If you lose
your fantasy if you come in last place. Last year,
there was a guy in the last place and he
had to enlist in the army.

Speaker 3 (46:11):
And again, if you want to listen to the army
and listen to the army to make that a fantasy
football punishment, what are we doing now?

Speaker 2 (46:19):
I had I had to look it up. Man, there's
a guy finished with the last and he actually did it.

Speaker 5 (46:24):
There's actually a video included in this saw that and
the guy said, I drafted Daniel Jones as my QB one,
so I kind of deserve it.

Speaker 4 (46:32):
Yeah, I'd say so exactly.

Speaker 2 (46:34):
But to go to the army, Like, how old was
the guy? Did he have any did he was he married?
Did he have any good job?

Speaker 4 (46:42):
What was going on with the guy?

Speaker 5 (46:43):
Yeah, he left his family behind. He had a wife
and kid.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
Just go to the army. Just go to the army.

Speaker 4 (46:50):
Now, I like my fantasy football.

Speaker 3 (46:53):
So you're saying that Rick's punishment of saying you should
smoke weed while you're doing the show wouldn't be a
good thing for you.

Speaker 4 (46:58):
I think I don't know. I don't think that'd be
a good thing doing the show.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
I don't think that's a Arnie's current meltdown over a
preseason game is the reason why I couldn't care less
about the preseason, because you learned zero about how the
regular season will actually go based upon games where the
goal isn't to win.

Speaker 2 (47:18):
No, there's a lot of things to learn from preseason,
not so much the wins and losses, but so much
more just you know, how how the team looks, how
they move the ball, how the defense look just how
the players, your first string looks, even the backups, the
play calling.

Speaker 4 (47:34):
There's a lot to learn from the preseason. I think
you're getting a little carried away on it to be.
You know, the Bills went one to two in the
preseason last year.

Speaker 2 (47:42):
I said, not the record, you know, like you know,
it bugged the hell out of me when the Dolphins
were throwing little passes and McDaniel didn't learn his lesson.

Speaker 4 (47:50):
He does the same thing right off the bat, right.

Speaker 2 (47:54):
I really wish I could someone get him as a
guest on our show, Chris, I really need to have
a talk with him.

Speaker 3 (48:00):
Well, why don't, I mean, you seem to know everyone.
Why don't you just go snap your fingers and make
it happen? Is it inappropriate advice that look, coach, you
gotta open it up. You gotta pass the ball downfield.

Speaker 2 (48:09):
No disrespect, but uh, these three yard passes is just
not gonna cut it.

Speaker 4 (48:14):
Uh in the NFL, that doesn't open.

Speaker 2 (48:15):
Up the running game. So can you just at least
pretend like you're gonna throw the do something? Is that
inappropriate if I say it like that?

Speaker 3 (48:22):
Again, it's the first preseason game. I went panic too,
terrible every time they threw the ball down the field.
You got Tyreek Kill and you got Jalen Waddle. You're
throwing it down the field. The villain's mad at you,
he says, Arnie. Last night you said that Shador Sanders
was arrogant and called out the media.

Speaker 4 (48:38):
Please play that sounder.

Speaker 3 (48:40):
I saw his postgame presser and he was nothing but humble,
appreciative of the team in the play call.

Speaker 4 (48:45):
No he did.

Speaker 2 (48:45):
He called up, he called out one of the writers
who said that he goes you never ever anything good? Uh?

Speaker 3 (48:50):
Right, But it was again, in fairness, it wasn't at
the podium. It was a conversation that it was a
conversation that was caught. I guess if I have a
documentary cur or someone following around.

Speaker 4 (49:01):
I don't know, but it was.

Speaker 3 (49:03):
It was a conversation that was literally caught away from
like the media stuff that was going on when he
said that to I don't know Tony, I don't know
the guy's name that he was talking gas to.

Speaker 4 (49:13):
Right, it seemed like it was they were kind of
having fun with an after Ye.

Speaker 2 (49:17):
Yeah, I mean that's what was being reported all over
the place. I just said that I would be talking
smack after one preseason game, but here I am having
a melt askter one preseason.

Speaker 3 (49:29):
I was already saying if I think that, if you
had somebody that just consistently dumped all over you and
told you how terrible you were at your job and
that you suck, you're never gonna do anything when you
do something good, And then you see that person, I'm
a little bout you're gonna say something to him.

Speaker 2 (49:47):
But isn't it funny how you guys say I shouldn't
have a breakdown over one preseason game. How many Brown
fans want to have sugar standards as their starting quarterback
after one preseason game?

Speaker 4 (49:57):
Well, I mean, you're basically bearing a whole team in
a game that they tied.

Speaker 2 (50:03):
No but how many people go the sailor's got it.
He's got to be the starter. You get rid of
everybody else. He's the starter.

Speaker 4 (50:10):
He looked pretty good.

Speaker 2 (50:11):
Hall of Fame.

Speaker 4 (50:13):
I mean, you're putting him in the Hall of Fame
right now, but pre season hall of fame.

Speaker 3 (50:16):
I'm telling you, dude, it's whatever you want to put
into it. And Browns fans are thirsty. They haven't eaten,
they haven't had something good to drink in a while.
They had just Flacco carry him to a place.

Speaker 2 (50:26):
When they go off to deepend it's okay. But if
I go off the deep end, it's not a listening.

Speaker 3 (50:30):
No, it's not okay, because we've been telling you what's
going to happen. We've been warning you, and you don't listen.

Speaker 2 (50:36):
I didn't think it was gonna happen this year. This
year we had the easy schedule. We had two of
back term and it's it's the hardest schedule in the
AFC East. Go ahead to you guys, not too real
NFL pundits like myself.

Speaker 4 (50:50):
That's right, all right, Well let's get to this.

Speaker 3 (50:52):
More of your tweets coming up in just a bit
at Stinking Genius one I'm at playing show, Arnie. It
is time for the Preseason Hall of Fame to open
its doors for a new class after Week one. Of course,
last year, last year you had Kyle Trask who got inducted.

Speaker 4 (51:08):
You wanted to put him in again this year.

Speaker 2 (51:09):
Yeah, you could have been a two time inductee, but
you could only be inducted one.

Speaker 3 (51:14):
Dak Prescott is in the Preseason Hall of Fame if
you want to go back and say, of the original members.

Speaker 4 (51:19):
But all right, where are we starting at in.

Speaker 2 (51:21):
Our Sanders obviously has to get on and he had
a fantastic game, put up some good numbers there. Jackson
Dark got to get in also, I thought he did
a pretty good job. Did we say Tanner McKee? We
brought him up yesterday? I think it was Chris Well.

Speaker 3 (51:38):
Nobody, not a lot of people that are listening tonight
got to hear last night. So okay, Cam Miller, I
believe I had a good game. Keaton Mitchell, I think.

Speaker 4 (51:48):
You believe you're putting give your preseason all of Yeah.

Speaker 2 (51:50):
I don't have the full stats in front of me,
so I can't do I.

Speaker 3 (51:55):
Do because he was the Raiders quarterback that came in
late he went six for seven for seventy six yards
in a touchdown.

Speaker 4 (52:02):
Yeah, that's good enough to get in the Preseason Hall
of Fame.

Speaker 2 (52:05):
There's there.

Speaker 4 (52:06):
We're gonna put in like ten guys in the preseason
Hall of Fame.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
There was a lot of young quarterbacks and a lot
of young players that had some pretty good games out there.
Like who is the Patriots starter with that Woolridge guy?

Speaker 4 (52:20):
Woodridge guy nine to.

Speaker 2 (52:22):
Twelve, one thirty two, one touchdown, no interceptions. He had
a QB rating of like one thirty eight. Got to
put him in the Hall of Fame. He had a
good good numbers out there.

Speaker 4 (52:32):
Well, you got time. I mean, you don't have to
necessarily throw everyone in.

Speaker 2 (52:35):
Did we have Josh? Do we have Josh Johnson in there?
A long time ago too?

Speaker 3 (52:39):
I know?

Speaker 4 (52:40):
Maybe so?

Speaker 3 (52:41):
I think so because he's always on a team during
the preseason in some way, shape or form.

Speaker 4 (52:46):
He had a good game for Washington.

Speaker 2 (52:47):
You know, he had some pretty good numbers, like one
hundred and seventy yards, fifteen to twenty two, one touchdown,
one interception. Yeah, there's a lot of people. The offenses
are way ahead of the defenses. A lot of guys
going into the preseason Hall of Fame.

Speaker 3 (53:01):
What was the number that you had from a fizzy
that had the number eleven of the games won on
the over?

Speaker 4 (53:09):
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (53:10):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (53:10):
Ten to twelve? I believe ten twelve.

Speaker 3 (53:12):
Yeah, that's not bad. That's not bad on the over numbers.
And it's funny because the two that you got right
were both overs. Yes, yeah, we're so you The only
that can't be right that couldn't have been the only
over went over No.

Speaker 4 (53:25):
Ten of the twelve games. Sorry, sorry I had a
brain freeze for him.

Speaker 2 (53:29):
Yeah, all right, Well that's not bad, know, And like
I said, yes, I think the offenses are not only
a head way ahead of the defenses for some reason,
I'm not sure why it's like that. Never I don't
remember in the last like ten years, has it ever
been like this one sided. Usually it's the defenses way
ahead and the scores are very low and they go

(53:50):
under the numbers of like thirty two, thirty three, thirty four.

Speaker 3 (53:54):
You got any anyone you're keeping an eye on to
potentially add to that list, that Hall of Fame list.
It caught you, I know one for me? Oh, I
thought Jaylen Milrow looked really good. Oh he got an opportunity.
At first, I just kind of yeah, dismissed him. But
he had some pretty good numbers.

Speaker 4 (54:09):
Also, you like him, huh? I watched him.

Speaker 3 (54:12):
He ran the ball well three times for thirty eight yards,
threw the ball well six to ten for sixty one yards. Now,
the Seahawks did some weird things late in that game
to let the Raiders stay in it, but I thought
he looked pretty good.

Speaker 4 (54:25):
He was impressive to me. And you know what, I
think we might have to.

Speaker 3 (54:30):
Create like a new wing of the preseason Hall of
Fame and maybe like the Hall of Terrible, because holy smokes,
everyone just seems to love himself, some march Manning. But
you're telling me arch Mann he couldn't beat that out
over the last two seasons at quarterback quinn Ewers, Oh
my gosh, man, he was horrible.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
He was He was like Ashon genty You had three
carries for negative one yard.

Speaker 3 (54:53):
He was worse than Ashton genty h five of eighteen,
five of eighteen sacked twice ninety one yards five point.

Speaker 4 (55:02):
Well, he had more yards per completion than Tua did.
So there's that.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
And the funny part is I was mobile I was
praising him last weekend, was I not?

Speaker 3 (55:10):
Well?

Speaker 4 (55:10):
I mean you again, he wears a Dolphins uniform, so
you praised I go, we.

Speaker 2 (55:15):
Probably got a backup quarterback. Now we don't have to
worry about two of going down. We got yours, so
there's no problem there. Geez, I couldn't have. Could I
have been more wrong? Like that? Was like the dumbest
thing I ever said, come out of my mouth.

Speaker 4 (55:31):
It's crazy.

Speaker 5 (55:32):
Makes our jobs easier when you point this stuff out yourself, Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (55:35):
Makes it a lot easier.

Speaker 2 (55:37):
Really like yours he did.

Speaker 4 (55:38):
I had a good practice, then put him in a
game and look.

Speaker 2 (55:41):
What he does.

Speaker 3 (55:42):
Gee, Nature boy points out. Don't forget a few years
ago that you did have Carson Wentz in your preseason
and regular season Hall of Fame. Wow, that's quite a
round that he had in twenty sixteen. Man, Carson Wentz
was the real deal. All Right, we gotta break. When
we come back, Todd Furman will join us. We'll talk about, Uh,
what he feels is the reason we're seeing such big
numbers early in the preseason. Offensively, it's a busy Sunday

(56:05):
night into a Monday morning right here on Fox Sports Radio.
All right, it's Aarny and playing Tobody live for the
Fox Sports Radio studios. Here's Todd Firm and the Man,
the Myth, the Legend out in Vegas at Todd Ferman
on Twitter, CBS Sports. He's everywhere, we think, Todd, pretty
fun Week one, wasn't it? Of the preseason?

Speaker 11 (56:26):
It was definitely fun for anybody to have the foresight
to think points, points and more points as overs were
kind of the order of the day, at least through
the first seventeen preseason games that we've seen transpire. And
whether it's about veterans getting more reps for the second
and third teams or teams being a little bit more aggressive,
we'll see how much things change going into week two.

(56:47):
But a lot of offense on full display and a
lot of rookies making an impact at least in their
limited workload through the first couple of games of preseasons.

Speaker 2 (56:54):
Todd, what happened Lions Topkins is out of no bet
And the two games that didn't go into overtime? Is
that still a bet on those ones or what?

Speaker 11 (57:02):
Yeah, a game has to go fifty five minutes, whether
it's preseason or regular season, whether it's college or the
NFL for a game to be deemed official, So Lions
and Falcons becomes a refund, and the games that went
full sixty, even if they did end in a tie,
treated the exact same way, and then a regular season
game will get treated as well. And it's why we
always talk about key numbers in the preseason a little

(57:22):
bit different than the regular season. So many of those
games can fall one or two or even right on
the pick him number. And interesting line movement given the
way that Dolphins Bears game was bet today, we saw
the Bears pretty much a two point favorite leading up
to kickoff. The Dolphins closed the one point favorite, and
for those folks who got a nibble on both sides
of the equation, they were able to get to the
window with two winners instead of one.

Speaker 3 (57:42):
Wow. So, Todd, is there a rhyme or reason Arnie
seems to think that the offenses or ahead of the
defenses right now? I don't know if it's a matter
of talent maybe more maybe deeper talent on offense and defense.

Speaker 4 (57:54):
Any rhyme or reasons those numbers and the kickoff rule too.

Speaker 1 (57:58):
Yeah, it's a great.

Speaker 11 (57:59):
Question and ipothesis that I'd be sitting here with pure
speculation more than anything else. I'll say on some level,
you get more college quarterbacks now that look to be
ready to go at the next level, and you've seen
a lot more veterans eating up minutes in the preseason,
and what we've seen in the past, it's not just
necessarily guys fighting for third string jobs, and every organization

(58:20):
placing slightly different emphasis on what they want to try
and get out of their various units. Whether it's the
first team like we saw with Arnie's Dolphins, you know,
handing the ball off plenty of times to both Devin
ah Chain and Jalen Wright with tu kind of the
surprise start, or a team like the Washington Commanders or
Pittsburgh Steelers who kept their starters on the bench. But
when you have some of these vets that are out there,

(58:41):
and you have these systems that have been in place
or quarterbacks that have been in the system, you know,
high flying games. Apparently we're the order of the day,
and some a lot more crooked numbers that will have
grown accustom to three or four years ago, where totals
in the low thirties used to be the norm for
games that typically ended with the first team getting a seventeen?

Speaker 2 (58:57):
What else did you learn after Week one? Because I'm like, oh,
I'm the Patriots. They're trying to win. They're going out
of their way to win these games.

Speaker 11 (59:03):
You know, I don't think you can take too much
away from these games. Every coaching staff and organization places
different emphasis on games. And as you mentioned the Patriots
and that forty eight point explosion, they look like they
were buttoned up, came in with a game plan, wanted
to go out there and execute with their quarterbacks, and
it paid dividends. Whereas you listen to Dan Quinn's comments
after the game, he said Washington kind of looked like

(59:24):
they were out for a Sunday jog more or less
paraphrasing in that regard, And it's kind of what cater fruition.
We saw it on the opening kickoff, but Travion Henderson
takes it more than one hundred yards and it more
or less snowballs. You have to imagine the Commanders will
be a little bit more buttoned up a week from
tomorrow when they take on the Cincinnati Bengals, and wouldn't
be surprised to see some over money enter the market there,
especially if the commander's announced that will see the first

(59:45):
team offense that was given the night off for the
trip to Foxborough.

Speaker 3 (59:49):
You know, it's interesting because we've looked at the history
right and see how important it is to John Harball.

Speaker 4 (59:54):
Looks like three seasons pretty important to Jim Harball too.

Speaker 3 (59:57):
But Todd, I don't know if you're a big win,
I don't know if you're in the RNY preseason is
the preseason category. But how hard is it to truly
tell going into each of these games who's taking it serius,
who's out there trying to win a game, and then
who's out there just trying to get through it healthy.

Speaker 11 (01:00:14):
It's all about trying to read between the lines and
figure out what some of the information that's out there
being shared from beat writers, a lot of the player comments,
coaching comments. But you know, this weekend we saw some
major line moves that didn't come into fruition. We saw
that Cleveland Browns go from a two point underdog to
a six point underdog and win that game going away.
I mean, we saw a major line move on the
Raiders Seahawks game, which falls in the middle for a

(01:00:36):
Raiders team that opened as a one and a half
point dog closes a five and a half point favorite.
And the Cincinnati Bengals very similar, open as a pick
and went out to six six and a half and
it was a Tanner McKee show for the better part
of three quarters. So you can read and glean as
much information as you want. It's a question to figure
out where you think the market's gone too far. I'm
given how I performed at about four and four of
my eight preseason bets. Not exactly something I'm going to.

Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
Write home about.

Speaker 11 (01:00:58):
After Week one of the NFL exhibition campaign, Todd.

Speaker 4 (01:01:02):
I love the over, and let me explain what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:01:04):
You know how they put out numbers for like yardage
for quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, whatever the number is.

Speaker 4 (01:01:11):
And I don't even know if you can bet this.

Speaker 2 (01:01:12):
I'm taking the over on the longest field goal kicked
on the year, sixty five.

Speaker 4 (01:01:17):
Yards or whatever it is.

Speaker 2 (01:01:18):
Why are they seventy yards down their body? Can you
bet that the longest field goals over under a certain
number or what?

Speaker 11 (01:01:25):
Yep? You will find that prop available at certain shops.
I think last year that over under was sixty two and.

Speaker 2 (01:01:30):
A half Oh wow, that's a steal.

Speaker 11 (01:01:32):
So when you look at some of the numbers, you
have to imagine they'll be increased optimism. Given what we
saw from Cam Little and his seventy yard field goal,
that probably would have been good from seventy three against
the Tayler. But Arnie, don't look too far down the road.
Cam Little makes a trip to that thin air of
the Rocky Mountain State against Denver, but I'm not sure
he'll be kicking in sunshine and sixty five degrees on
December twenty first, when the Jaguars take on Denver.

Speaker 2 (01:01:54):
Do you think more teams are going to go for
the long field goals or they don't want to, they're
scared of missing, And I think the ball around midfield
or something.

Speaker 11 (01:02:02):
I think that's a risk you can take in the
preseason or at the end of the half. But if
you're going to routinely attempt seventy yard field goals and
your kicker is not going to hit at a pretty
high clip, that's essentially putting points on the board for
your opponent. But you mentioned the kickoff rules, and I
think a lot of these teams are going to have
to get better with the mortar style kick, because if
they're going to put the ball through the end zone
and allow their opposition to start every drive on the

(01:02:22):
thirty five, all it takes is a couple of first
downs with how prolific some of these kickers are, and
they have the opportunity to put a field goal up there.
So we're going to see teams continue to tinker. We
will see a higher rate of kick returns, and the
kick coverage will be of the utmost importance for teams
to drop that kickoff inside the five yard line and
be able to pin their opponent inside the twenty five.

Speaker 3 (01:02:40):
Hey, before we let you get out of here, at
least final thought from me. I'm sure Arnie wants to
tell you how great his Pixar or something. College football wise,
I don't know about you. Obviously, the Week one games
that are in like twenty days are going to be huge.
Kansas State and Iowa State's got me intrigued, you know.
Now with the our four conferences, one of these teams

(01:03:02):
could be a playoff team by the end of the year.
And I think Avery Johnson and Kansas State, I think
they've got a chance to be really good. How much
are you like quantifying are taking into consideration this being
played in Ireland, which is so odd for a conference game.

Speaker 11 (01:03:14):
No, that's the whole thing. I mean, you start this
season with a game that could have major ramifications when
we're looking at the college playoff and the Big twelve
title race deep into November and early December. We did
see a little bit of money coming on the Wildcats
over the weekend, from a three out to a three
and a half point favor even some fours in the
market total kind of painted across the board in a
forty nine and a half range. But I think all

(01:03:35):
four games have interesting storylines, maybe not for the casual
college football fan, but the real diehard that's out there.
That game having the biggest impact not only in a
conference race, but potentially for the playoffs. Sam Houston State
and Western Kentucky. Western brings in a transfer quarterback and
an offensive coordinator from Ablene Christian that will have the
potential to put up crooked numbers in a first year

(01:03:55):
head coach in Phil Longo for sam Houston State. Fresno State,
a first year head coach and own right in Kansas
will roll out the great unveiling of their new on
campus stadium after having to play on a neutral last
year at Sporting Case and at Arrowhead. So should be
a fun game there with Jalen Daniels. White think Plank
is entering his thirteen year, thirteenth year of college football.

(01:04:16):
And then Hawaii Stanford. I mean, we've seen this number
move four to four and a half points. Frank Right
the interim head coach, and Andrew Luck the GM a
Stanford team that I think is going to fight tooth
and nail to try and win three games. And Timmy Chang,
how long is he able to try and keeps the
goodwill of folks on the island despite his pedigree. They're
going to need a bowl game or bust. And this
gives him an excellent opportunity on national TV to be

(01:04:37):
a team hailing from Power for conference as a short
home favorite.

Speaker 2 (01:04:40):
Todd already August tenth and the Dolphins have been eliminated
from the playoff race. I have no hope for this year, Todd.
I think it's going to be a horrible year.

Speaker 11 (01:04:51):
I mean, Arnie, I'm not sure this might be the
first time that we're three weeks before the Dolphins are
scheduled to play their first meaningful game or four weeks,
I guess.

Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
And you're already throwing in the towels.

Speaker 11 (01:05:00):
Usually you are the voice of reason, the eternal optimists,
but apparently you're not enamored with their offensive line construction
and the fact that they have a defensive backfield that
might not be good enough to hold up against SEC
caliber offenses given all the injuries and trades they've made.

Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
They let some guy from some school I'd never heard
of tear them it's been in the league, what two
three years? Tear them apart today. Where did he go
to school again, Fisher Shepherd.

Speaker 4 (01:05:26):
We've told you five times, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:05:28):
Something like that. It's just it's horrible, It's just crazy.
I don't even know if that's a real school.

Speaker 11 (01:05:33):
A lot of people would say that about the caliber
of education down there in Tucsons.

Speaker 1 (01:05:36):
So I have careful the shots I fire.

Speaker 11 (01:05:40):
Thanks you if they're as fast asleep as a proud
you of alum. But already, if I have a litmus test,
if you and her, then I'm going to have to
question the caliber of that at credit at university.

Speaker 4 (01:05:49):
Great stuff, Todd, You're the man, always a pleasure boy.

Speaker 3 (01:05:54):
You'll follow him on Twitter right now at Todd Furman
and s Lo to our buddy Steve Seger, who gets
caught up on all the news notes.

And tidbitch you need from the day in sports.

Speaker 2 (01:06:02):
What's going on?

Speaker 4 (01:06:03):
So Sega went to Sheppard College.

Speaker 6 (01:06:04):
I think I've never heard of it. Did they invent
the pie? We will get to a lot of NFL
details in about fifteen minutes, but there were two exhibitions today.
Chicago at home tied Miami twenty four all, and in
LA it was the Chargers over in New Orleans twenty
seven to thirteen. Eagles Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson was

a half, walked five in two thirds of ben inning,

(01:07:24):

all be in their final seasons. Justin Verlander today five innings,
five runs, allowed, eleven hits over one hundred pitches in
the five innings. He is one and nine for the
Giants this year.

Speaker 4 (01:09:12):
Back to you, thanks Steve. More from the Segre coming
up here in just a bit.

Speaker 3 (01:09:17):
A couple of reactions on Twitter throughout the show, griddles
make blackout right. I'm in a twelve team fantasy league
that starts two quarterbacks. Two was on a guy's bench.

Speaker 2 (01:09:28):
Oh wow, have two quarterbacks starting each week? Is that
if you're so?

Speaker 3 (01:09:33):
Yeah, twenty four quarterbacks. Basically you could start two quarterbacks.
We did that one year in a fantasy league. I
thought it was pretty awesome, but really he really pairs
down the quarterbacks on the waiver wire.

Speaker 4 (01:09:44):
Yeah, yeah, I can't do that. It's gotta be a
one quarterback.

Speaker 3 (01:09:47):
Yeah overnight, Joe, right, don't need all the NFL channels
on he just get NFL Plus with the red zone,
all right, because Roman numeral fourteen.

Speaker 2 (01:09:58):
Yeah, it was costing over I read what, one thousand dollars.
If you want to get all the channels that have
all the games on it, Chris, with all the streaming
and cable and all that stuff, that's crazy. Then that's insane.

Speaker 3 (01:10:11):
Well, I mean, if you so, if you're talking about
getting every single game, just the Sunday ticket itself is redoting,
it is like three hundred bucks right now.

Speaker 2 (01:10:22):
I mean I thought it was more than that.

Speaker 4 (01:10:24):
That's a bargain.

Speaker 3 (01:10:25):
Actual it might be the AI rundown of what it
is is not correct. Oh yeah, it's four hundred and
eighty bucks. Okay, so five yeah, yeah, five, So that's
that's five hundred.

Speaker 1 (01:10:34):
There.

Speaker 4 (01:10:36):
You need Prime, you need Netflix, you need Peacock.

Speaker 2 (01:10:40):
The NFL channel, but that comes with your cable.

Speaker 4 (01:10:42):
I guess, well then you need to pay for cable.
Well yeah, of course.

Speaker 3 (01:10:47):
So yeah, that's seems pretty significant to me, and I
don't think it's going to get any cheaper, especially whenever
you hear about what they're going to try to charge
you for the direction to consumer thing for ESPN and
Fox is working on its own direct to consumer thing.
I mean, you can watch two games, three games, not four.

(01:11:07):
You can watch four games every weekend for free. Right,
you get the doubleheader on one channel, get the single game,
you get NBC for Sunday night.

Speaker 2 (01:11:15):
You still think I'm wrong when I said the super
Bowl is going to be on streaming?

Speaker 4 (01:11:20):
Yes, I think the super Bowl will ever be on
streaming two years? Watch, well it is.

Speaker 3 (01:11:26):
I mean technically it's streaming right now, but no, it
won't because their TV deal runs for the next what
eight and eight years?

Speaker 4 (01:11:32):
Seven years? Geez, that's the anchor of the whole TV deal, Arenie.

Speaker 3 (01:11:36):
That's why I disagree with it vehemently, because the reason
why NBC and ABC and CBS, why they pay and
Fox while they pay all this money for the NFL rights,
is because they get to carry the super Bowl, which
is the highest rated event every single year in all
of TV.

Speaker 2 (01:11:55):
Do you think if it was up, if that contract
wasn't around, there'd be a chance that we'd have to
be No, dude.

Speaker 4 (01:11:59):
No, I just think they make too much money off
of it.

Speaker 3 (01:12:03):
Oh. By the way, Ian Roddy found the tweet that
I was talking about with Justin Fields. Oh great job.
This was from a don't kolby Gresham Donna. He says,
why is Field so uncomfortable? Adjust waste, adjust face mask,
adjust helmet whippers, adjust towels that adjustice face masks again,

(01:12:23):
all the span of twelve seconds, all just before a
preseason games like.

Speaker 2 (01:12:28):
Bro wait to be on top of that one, wait
to call it.

Speaker 3 (01:12:31):
I'm like, wow, he's walking out of the tunnel where
guys are constantly adjusting their equipment.

Speaker 2 (01:12:38):
People were people were critical for playing his own music
coming into the locker room.

Speaker 3 (01:12:45):
Well, I mean, I I think that's a little bit corny.
But that's just me saying, Hey, I'm coming in hitting
my intro music. What is this WWE? What is this
Little League World Series?

Speaker 2 (01:12:55):
We're here? The kids got for their own walk up music.

Speaker 4 (01:12:57):
From on last show. Is not a fan of that either,
My gosh.

Speaker 3 (01:13:00):
I will well again, Arnie's all about the flash, so
he'd you probably were all about No.

Speaker 4 (01:13:05):
I didn't like that either.

Speaker 2 (01:13:06):
I was giving him crap, But I just wanted to
pretend like I wasn't giving him crap, right, Yes, I
want to pretend.

Speaker 3 (01:13:11):
Like I was appalled by it. The other thing that
overnight Joe brought up that I haven't even talked about.
Was I think what Roman numeral nineteen, He writes, don't
forget Pam Postema, the first female up. She opened the door,
saw her in the miners, good tough and didn't take
any s. You know what's so funny about the whole
thing is all female umpiring crew, by the way, in

(01:13:33):
Major League Baseball this week. And if you missed it,
oh was there? That's that's what That's what he was
talking about. So many in your Roman numeral rundown, right.

Speaker 2 (01:13:41):
But so many people were I would you say, why
would you say there was whenever you added on the run.

Speaker 4 (01:13:45):
No, no, no, I was saying.

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
So many people gave her grief for the first pitch
that she got it wrong.

Speaker 4 (01:13:50):
They're like, oh, yeah, look at her, she's horrible.

Speaker 9 (01:13:52):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:13:53):
I remember I shouldn't probably say this, but I remember
harassing a female pire in Triple A in Tucson when
she's used all yeah, yeah, I would. I would constantly
be yelling at her, Hey, lady, lady, we gotta calls that.
You know. Of course it was dollar beer knight, you know,

(01:14:14):
with the sixty ounce spears we used to go to
the Toros game.

Speaker 4 (01:14:17):
I forgot her. Her name was Pam something. Also, have
the producer look it up.

Speaker 2 (01:14:21):
Triple A.

Speaker 4 (01:14:22):
Have the producer look it up. Google it up yourself.
I don't know how you met your wife Pam Wow.

Speaker 2 (01:14:28):
Now looking up at her, I think her name was Pam.
She was a Triple A umpire and she was doing
a Tucson Toro's game. I thought she would have made
it to the major league.

Speaker 4 (01:14:37):
Maybe she did.

Speaker 2 (01:14:38):
She just didn't call balls and strikes. That's that could
have been the difference.

Speaker 3 (01:14:42):
I was a little bit surprised by it because I've
never seen a female lump in major league baseball, so
it was ore in the minor leagues. And I has
a lot of minor league so I was kind of
surprised whenever that was a thing. Not that I'm against it,
I'm just a little bit take it back now, it's awesome.
All right, when we come back to see we'll have
more on that and all the news and notes in

(01:15:02):
the world of sports. Plus tweets have been great tonight.
We owe you more of those. It's tinking genius one.
I'm at Plank Show. Everyone go follow us at Fox
Sports Radio. It's Arny in Plank on a Sunday night
here on Fox. All right, it's Arny in Plank. Sallo
to our buddy, Steve to Seger all the news notes
and inside info you need from the week.

Speaker 4 (01:15:22):
That was what's up Steve?

Speaker 6 (01:15:23):
Hello, We will get to today's football in a moment
you mentioned the baseball It was the home plate umpire
that was female today at Atlanta, not the entire crew.
But no, this female did become the first woman this
weekend to umpire.

Speaker 1 (01:15:37):
In a rule.

Speaker 2 (01:15:37):
Did I say entire crew?

Speaker 6 (01:15:39):
Yes, it was her day behind home plate today, but
she this weekend did become the first woman to up
in a regular season MLB game.

Speaker 3 (01:15:47):
And I honestly had no idea that it that we
had that many female umpires that were working up the ranks.

Speaker 4 (01:15:53):
Just don't see it very.

Speaker 6 (01:15:54):
Oft apparently had been in spring training the last couple
of years that had been at Triple A, and so
got the call, as any Triple A umpires do. During
the summer, I did notice the Red Sox TV broadcast
this month that had an all women broadcast crew with
play by play in color and field reporter and so forth.
And I mentioned earlier about the home run of Cal
Rawley at Seattle today, and the Mariners have won seven

(01:16:16):
in a row. Caw Raley's forty fifth home run of
the season the record for a switch hitter in a
season fifty four. Mickey Mantle, So he has a shot.

Speaker 2 (01:16:25):
He hey, by the way, before you got admit, did
you see the machado? Peralta tried to do the hidden
ball trick now and then and ended up becoming a
back because he went back to the mount, had his
foot on the rubber and didn't have the ball, and
they tried.

Speaker 4 (01:16:40):
They didn't get the out though.

Speaker 6 (01:16:41):
So I do remember when a former padre did get
picked off first with the hidden ball trick, when Alan
Wiggins was with Baltimore.

Speaker 4 (01:16:48):
People should do that more often.

Speaker 6 (01:16:50):
Man doesn't cost you anything? Why not?

Speaker 2 (01:16:52):
Absolutely?

Speaker 6 (01:16:53):
Two NFL exhibitions today. From the sound of it, Miami
just got blown out fifty to nothing. Yes, actually it
was twenty four all a tie at Chicago Nos embarrassing,
no overtime in the preseason. Zach Wilson talk about embarrassing.
He's a Dolphins quarterback. This Ye're sacked four times today.
The Dolphins did have three touchdown runs. Alexander Madison, Jalen Wright,

(01:17:16):
Ali Gordon, Chicago's Cairo Santos a fifty seven yard field
goal at the end of the first half. Dolphins in
the fourth quarter kicked a fifty six yarder by Jason Sanders,
but on the next drive, as you mentioned, quarterback when
you were sacked fumbled. He was five of eighteen passing,
had a couple of fumbles, and Caleb Williams did not
play in Chicago. Bears quarterback case Keenum with a couple

(01:17:37):
of touchdown passes in the second half today he was
eight of ten eighty yards. Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill
did not practice again Friday due to an oblique injury.

Speaker 2 (01:17:46):
No shocking.

Speaker 6 (01:17:47):
Fox TV is going to have a Sunday night preseason
game next weekend with the Bears hosting the Bills. There
was a game in La today in that stadium. It
was last night Rams and Dallas. That was, my goodness, Dallas, Wow.

Speaker 2 (01:18:04):
That was I don't know what that was.

Speaker 6 (01:18:06):
At the end of the first quarter, it was ten
first downs to none. Rams. Also at the end of
the first quarter it was one hundred and sixty yards
to one. Dallas did not have a rushing attempt at
that point, and it only had the ball for a
minute and a half. Eventually Rams thirty one twenty one.

Speaker 4 (01:18:22):
The fine, look, did you by.

Speaker 2 (01:18:23):
The way, they're gonna have a Monday night football game
too next weekend? Yeah, yes as well.

Speaker 6 (01:18:29):
No, the fox is on next Sungch Chargers in LA
beat New Orleans twenty seven to thirteen.

Speaker 2 (01:18:34):
Today.

Speaker 6 (01:18:34):
New Orleans on red zone tds oh for two in
the first half. In fact, they had one drive technically
it's two separate drives, but they punted away. It was
a muff punt. They recovered and kept marching down the field.
Total it was fourteen plays. They had the ball for
almost eight minutes and got no points out of it.
And then New Orleans at one point in a four
drive stretch twenty plays only thirty three yards.

Speaker 2 (01:18:57):
This was, at many.

Speaker 6 (01:18:58):
Different points exactly what you would expect out of the preseason,
because the Chargers at one point in the first half
fourteen plays twenty nine yards, only one first down, and
then Trey Lance came in the game. They get four
or five first downs on one drive after only having
one first down all day before that. In fact, at
one point, Lance four carries thirty six yards in a touchdown.

(01:19:20):
The rest of the team on the ground about forty
yards rushing on twelve carries. And by the way, it
was Craig Rolstat's crew, a guy who's been a referee
in the NFL for over a decade. When he started out,
he was field judge and here he is at a
Jim Harbaugh game today. He was on the field in
the crew for the Harbor the Super Bowl Jim Harbaugh
against John Harbaugh, which is over a decade ago now.

(01:19:43):
And his side judge in this crew is Frank Sterotor,
cousin of the retired referee Sterotor. And you may not know.
The video replay operators stay with the crew. They all
travel to the same sites together. They're all part of
the same team. Play operator for this guy's crew used
to carpool with the ref years ago to work high

(01:20:06):
school games. They have known each other.

Speaker 2 (01:20:07):
I should have been I should rough Miami games. Should yes?

Speaker 6 (01:20:12):
And a Jets fan apparently because you know we've heard
what the Dolphins are. The New Orleans Saints started to
Spencer Rattler at quarterback. He was sacked three times, one fumble,
Tyler Schuck one TD, one interception. The Saints running backs today,
fifteen carries twenty nine yards.

Speaker 2 (01:20:29):
That's good.

Speaker 6 (01:20:29):
Each team punted six times now trying out at a
return manex a Buffalo. Nine hinds of the Chargers fumbled
two punts, recovered ones. And if you haven't heard, the
Chargers had a major injury at knee injury to pro
bowler Rashaun Slater this past week. He's out for the years.
So they're moving Joe al to left tackle, who was
drafted kind of as a right tackle a year ago
from Notre Dame, but it played left tackle in college.

(01:20:52):
And Sean McVay at his press conference today, the Rams
coach says they're trying to finalize a plan to have
a joint practice with the Saints on Thursday.

Speaker 3 (01:21:01):
That should be fun. That's when all the brawls happened.
Thanks Steve. All right, when we come back after week
one of the preseason, we know this next.

Speaker 1 (01:21:11):
Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

Speaker 3 (01:21:14):
Die there we go, power Hello, final hour of the show,
Sarny and playing care on Fox Sports Radio. How you know,
we really haven't talked too much about what you had
in your opening segment, Roman Numeral one. In fact, I
was very disappointed because you went into crying about the Dolphins.

Speaker 2 (01:21:32):
I I am seven and seven now, so I had
two games that I wasn't going to give myself the loss,
but I have to follow Todd Furman's ruling. So I'm
seven and seven right now. Won two and one on
the son.

Speaker 3 (01:21:48):
Do you have one game that you can't give yourself
the loss for? And that's the Falcons and Alliance? That
wasn't that's a no bet, no bet there, right, So
that's out. Yeah, but you lost a couple of them,
didn't you. Are you giving your self wins when you lost?

Speaker 1 (01:22:01):
No.

Speaker 3 (01:22:01):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:22:02):
Of seven and seven right now? Seven and seven?

Speaker 3 (01:22:04):
So much for not missing You missed four in a
row after you got after you started out what two
and oh three?

Speaker 2 (01:22:09):
I had a little I a little bump in the
road there, a little little bump, but I'm gonna get
back on.

Speaker 4 (01:22:14):
Look.

Speaker 2 (01:22:15):
I was off, I was red hot. I was one
hundred percent. You didn't think I was gonna keep up
one hundred percent? Now, of j way you were talking,
did you listen to the whole show last week? It
was killing me every lot and I know you were
watching too. And there's a lot of pressure on these picks.
I got Vegas watching listening. Uh, the gamblers are listening.

(01:22:36):
They need the money. The listeners are listening, they need
the money. So a lot of pressure goes with these picks. Man,
I it's very nerve wracking. Mm hmm.

Speaker 3 (01:22:47):
Well, it's that time of the show where we dive
into what is listed as Roman numeral number three. But
it's a time on a tradition that every single football
week we tell you what we learned after the week
that was, so without any further do no college games
yet that starts in two weeks, so just no, no,
Let's say you had sixteen as seventeen football games that

(01:23:09):
have been played so far, Arnie, you.

Speaker 4 (01:23:11):
Kick things off, yeah, after week one of the preseason.

Speaker 2 (01:23:15):
We know this. After week one of the preseason. I
know this, and I started off the show with this.
I can't fool myself no more. I can no longer
look in the mirror and say, hey, arn you're looking
pretty good. You're not fat. The mirror doesn't lie, and
you know what, the game doesn't lie. The Dolphins are

(01:23:35):
not a good team. They're not going thirteen and four.
They're not even gonna go ahead and win double digits.
I'll be I would take nine and eight right now.
I'm afraid they're destined for like three and fourteen. They
look horrible. They're just not a very good team. I'm

(01:23:56):
telling you, I'm disgusted with them, and I learned that
all today after one week of the preseason. How bad
they looked. And two is not gonna throw the ball
down field, dizzy, might as well just go ahead and
just throw it under hand. Disgusting.

Speaker 3 (01:24:13):
It's kind of funny that, you know, you don't give
us any credit for telling you that we didn't think
they're going to be very good.

Speaker 2 (01:24:19):
Oh wait till they start off one and all, I'm
gonna jump down your throat.

Speaker 4 (01:24:22):
Well, but again, that's all right after week one of
the preseason.

Speaker 2 (01:24:28):
I know this.

Speaker 3 (01:24:29):
Uh. I have a couple of TVs up right now,
is watching on Pluto TV. They have thing called CBS
Sports Headquarters, and one of the analysts said, the biggest
embarrassment of week one or something of that nature was
the Bengals defense. Well, if that was the biggest embarrassment,
then to me, well, Joe Burrow and that sitsattie offense looked.

Speaker 2 (01:24:51):
I guess couple of drives we talked about this a
bit last night.

Speaker 3 (01:24:55):
Two drives, two touchdowns, one a ten place seventy one
yard drive, the other five place sixty five yard drive.

Speaker 4 (01:25:01):
Burrow was nine to ten for one hundred and twenty
three yards and two touchdowns.

Speaker 3 (01:25:05):
Jamar Chase had four catches for seventy seven yards and
a touchdown. Again, I'm not trying to get over my
skis too much. I'm not trying to freak out like
Arnie does. But if I'm a Bengal fan, I'm feeling
really good about that offense getting back in rhythm with
all the issues they had battling injuries last year.

Speaker 2 (01:25:24):
What I learned after Week one, my friend and I
told this to Toddy kind of papooed me. He kind
of just showed me away. The Patriots are trying to
win these games. They're not messing around. They're going out
there like it's a regular season game, like it's a
playoff game, playoffs, and they're just trouncing everybody offense, defense,

(01:25:44):
special teams. Did you see the special teams close to
the Patriots. He was watching the game like his life
was on the line. I'm not gonna be fool twice.
I'm taking the Patriots next weekend. They're trying to win, Chris,
That's what they're trying to do.

Speaker 3 (01:25:59):
I also want to give the disclaimer here through all
of this tonight and everything that you're gonna hear tomorrow
and Tuesday and Wednesday throughout the week, we had four
teams finished the preseason. Actually, you know, let me correct myself.
We had five teams finished the preseason undefeated last year.

Speaker 1 (01:26:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:26:19):
Five.

Speaker 4 (01:26:20):
Do you know how many of them ended up making
the playoffs?

Speaker 3 (01:26:23):
Two? One, oh, get out of here, and it was
the Broncos. The Jets were three and oh in the
preseason last year. Their coach got fired. The Jaguars were
three and oh in the preseason last year. The Titans
were three and oh in the preseason last year.

Speaker 4 (01:26:40):
And oh the.

Speaker 3 (01:26:40):
Bears, well the Bears, aren't he They were four and
oh during the preseason.

Speaker 2 (01:26:45):
Like giving me, oh, Dolphins thirty did four? Let's go,
let's go.

Speaker 4 (01:26:49):
I don't know if i'd quite go that.

Speaker 2 (01:26:51):
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (01:26:52):
In fact, the the year before Washington ended up with
a second pick in the draft, they were three and oh.
So twenty twenty three, they were three and oh in
the preseason. By the way, the Jaguars went six and
oh the last two preseasons. How's that looking for them?
You just don't get too carried away with it and
then gives the charge more. I twenty two went four

(01:27:15):
and oh under Josh McDaniels, and they sucked.

Speaker 2 (01:27:18):
Yeah, I'm afraid your Raiders are gonna be a better
team this year. That's gonna hurt me a little bit.

Speaker 4 (01:27:22):
Why would that hurt you? Why wouldn't you want to
see my team do well?

Speaker 2 (01:27:25):
No, I'd like to see you suffer a little bit
with your teams.

Speaker 3 (01:27:28):
I've suffered for fifty years. I think I could get
one little happiness. Now.

Speaker 2 (01:27:33):
You want one year when I want one good year.

Speaker 4 (01:27:36):
I don't get that one good year, do I? Well?

Speaker 3 (01:27:38):
I mean everybody wants a good year for their team, Horney.
You're not the only one that wants a good year
for their team. I just want one.

Speaker 2 (01:27:44):
Though out of the last decade, out of the last
twelve years, I haven't even had one.

Speaker 3 (01:27:48):
Two years ago, you went to the playoffs and you
told us that you would have won the game if
it wasn't played in Antarctica.

Speaker 2 (01:27:53):
Well, that's what you're gonna give me the playoffs? Yeahs,
that's what you're gonna give me. Yeah, So I need
to win it. I need like an NBA Championship. I
need a World Series, a super Bowl, Arizona National Championship.

Speaker 3 (01:28:09):
We did this an hour one. We did this an
hour one. I need one wint it anymore. Hey, I
learned this. I I do think I agree with you.
I think the offenses are a Scotia head of the defenses.

Speaker 2 (01:28:23):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (01:28:24):
I thought that.

Speaker 3 (01:28:26):
Most of the starters had played looked okay, but I
love these young quarters. I thought cam Ward looked pretty good.
It took him a while to get going, but I
thought he looked pretty good. Listen, you and I were
talking last night about this dude that came off the
bench for the Vikings out of Nowhere. You want to
talk about Nowhere University. This guy comes off the bench
for the Vikings and basically gets the touchdown that it's

(01:28:50):
did it submit the over or did it submit the
cover four year? Regardless of what it was. That was
pretty impressive. So, I mean, if you're a Jets fan
right now, you're probably feeling pretty good about things. Though
I think you do kind of put the little caveat
that it is the preseason. But I thought, I think
the offenses are looking pretty.

Speaker 2 (01:29:08):
Good right, Well, now piggyback off, that would I wouldn't
have the weak number one. Not only the offenses ahead
of the defenses, but that new kicking rule is going
to allow more kickoff returns, which means much better field position,
which means more scoring. I don't think Vegas has caught
up with the over unders with the new positions, because they.

Speaker 4 (01:29:28):
See you think Vegas is behind on the over under numbers.

Speaker 2 (01:29:32):
Obviously, when ten to twelve games went over in the preseason,
I'm wondering how much you have to adjust.

Speaker 4 (01:29:38):
For that one point two points.

Speaker 2 (01:29:42):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:29:42):
I really have no idea. How would you.

Speaker 2 (01:29:44):
Adjust for that?

Speaker 3 (01:29:45):
Well, let me see you. Let's just give you one game.
For instance, you had the what do you have the
over on the Dolphins and the Bears game? What was
the number thirty three or something like forty five and
a half? Forty eight was the number. That's like, not
cl that's more than a one point adjustment. If you
look at that and say you think that Vegas hasn't
adjusted to the kickoff rule yet.

Speaker 4 (01:30:07):
Right, it's more than that.

Speaker 2 (01:30:08):
But how about because I ran the ball back out
to the fifty yard line instead of taking down my
own twenty five like it usually is.

Speaker 4 (01:30:17):
Now I can put seven points on the board.

Speaker 2 (01:30:19):
So well, I mean it is.

Speaker 4 (01:30:21):
I think it makes a difference. I just you know
what it was.

Speaker 3 (01:30:24):
They were explaining it during the Vikings game, and there
was this moment where we do this show every Sunday night.
I do a show five days a week. I'm on
Friday nights, and it was one of those where it's
like that had completely slipped my mind, or it was
such a minor thing, aren't he that. I'm like, wait,
we're changing the kickoff rule again. Then we just change it.
I guess I didn't realize the perceived difference that it

(01:30:46):
might make, because if you rewind a year ago when
we just started this new kickoff rule, I mean, for
a while, it was our whole show. It was all
we were talking about, right, So it kind of fell
on deaf ears to me that they had made this
big change.

Speaker 2 (01:30:59):
Less or more coaches going forward on fourth and like
one and two on the other side of the field.

Speaker 4 (01:31:08):
More.

Speaker 2 (01:31:10):
I was gonna say less, because the field goal kicking
is just insane with people making sixty sixty five yarders regularly.
But then again, if you miss it, if you miss
a sixty five yard attempt, you're gonna get the ball.

Speaker 3 (01:31:28):
What like midfield, the NFL field goal percentage for kicks
beyond sixty yards is still well below fifty percent. I mean,
I just I get it that you're seeing fifty fifty
is you can say, all right, fifty.

Speaker 4 (01:31:48):
It's like automatic. Now, yeah, jeez, but when you're I.

Speaker 3 (01:31:51):
Mean, seventy happened, and I mean that was pretty special
with what Cam Little did. Southmore Oklahoma product, rise up Jacks,
but southomore actually more Oklahoma sophomore Jaguars. But I don't
I still don't think you want to put it in
the kicker's hands.

Speaker 2 (01:32:09):
So then if you get if you get your saying
that with the good field position, they get to like
the forty or the forty five. On the other side,
they said, you know, let's let's go for it on
fourth down instead of putting it away.

Speaker 4 (01:32:19):
I think, so, yeah, what would be right on that?

Speaker 3 (01:32:23):
You know, I'm still looking at some of these and
the average starting field position for you know, most of
these drives, like I'm just I'm going right now through
the Vikings and the Texans and you know, you get
penalties on these kickoffs quite a bit, so it affects it.
But the Texans were constantly around the twenty three twenty
seven yard line.

Speaker 2 (01:32:41):
It wasn't really that big of a difference in that game. No,
but that game went under. That was one of the
games I went under.

Speaker 3 (01:32:48):
I just I wonder how challenging it's going to be
to figure that out. And then one more, by the way,
since I'm looking at this box score right now, there's
a couple of guys that are playing quarterback in this
league that I don't really think have any business quarterback
in the NFL. I'm looking at you right now, Graham Mertz.
Whatever that was he was trying to do it in
a Texans uniform. You completed seven passes, but in reality

(01:33:10):
you did complete ten because you completed three to the
other team. And I know, I know, I know that
he had one or two throws that caught your eye
and Cowboy fan were all gaga about it.

Speaker 4 (01:33:20):
But holy smokes man, Joe Milton is terrible.

Speaker 3 (01:33:23):
And every single Tennessee fan that was watching it was like, yeah,
I told you we lived this experience that bad.

Speaker 4 (01:33:30):
He started off real bad, but he picked it up
after that, didn't he?

Speaker 3 (01:33:33):
I mean, yeah, when you start bringing in the second
and third string and fourth string guys, I thought I
thought he was awful. That was me And again I
hold him to that standard where you people act like
he's going to be the greatest thing that we've ever
seen at quarterback because he has incredible, incredible athletic traits.
But I watched college football and I know what he is.

(01:33:55):
And you don't magically fix accuracy. I mean, it's just
wo I thought was a rough watch.

Speaker 2 (01:34:01):
Who's gonna play for the Browns this next preseason game?

Speaker 4 (01:34:04):
How hurt is Dylan Gabriel, I do not know.

Speaker 2 (01:34:09):
I have no idea.

Speaker 4 (01:34:10):
I think in Philadelphia.

Speaker 3 (01:34:11):
It's in Philadelphia too, Yeah, and Philly doesn't seem like
they're going too all in on it. But the uh,
I'm sure should Or Sanders will get a chance to
play again. I don't know if he'll start, but I
think they were just battling some injuries, right. It could
have been a little dinged up, Gabriel, We got ding up,
and I think that's kind of the main reason why
should Or Sanders ended up getting that opportunity. But we'll see,

(01:34:34):
We'll see it should be fun.

Speaker 4 (01:34:35):
Though.

Speaker 3 (01:34:36):
You think anyone's gonna talk about should or Sanders over.

Speaker 4 (01:34:39):
The next week.

Speaker 2 (01:34:40):
No, I think you ever forget about him. Nobody, nobody
cares about what he does in Philadelphia.

Speaker 3 (01:34:46):
You think that's gonna be a topic at all that
we're gonna talk about NonStop over the next week here in.

Speaker 4 (01:34:50):
The world back towards Can.

Speaker 2 (01:34:51):
You imagine what a dude in local sports talking Philadelphia
with the Browns coming in?

Speaker 3 (01:34:55):
Do you think a preseason game? I don't think it's
that big there. I think they're about the Phillies right
now with what they're doing. They care about baseball and
Schwarber one in the MVP and Land again. The Landa
Nickerson story is kind of significant, significant too, if you
lose a little bit of the off its flying. I
think that the Eagles are going to be a fascinating study.
Hold on a second. I got to correct myself. I

(01:35:17):
made a dramatic mistake Whenever I was giving credit. Southmore
is actually the SaberCats, Westmore.

Speaker 4 (01:35:23):
As the Jaguars. I apologize to him.

Speaker 2 (01:35:26):
I was going to say that, but I didn't want
to correct you in front of everybody, right, I appreciate
that but I think what's fascinating about just the quarterback
situations in general right now is you're going into Philadelphia
and they're revamping their defense.

Speaker 4 (01:35:40):
Quarterback situation. The Browns, they're.

Speaker 3 (01:35:41):
Having to revamp their defense a bit, and they let
their guys play some the other night, you know, because
they're kind of getting used to them being in new
situations and they are pretty good even with what you know,
we we were talking about Burrow doing so I I'm
intrigued Anie to see just how old the wall Philly
goes with their personnel on the So he's had a
Saturday or Friday game. Do you, I'm not sure.

Speaker 2 (01:36:03):
Do you have a team that we're sleeping on that
everybody's like, ah, they're going to be crappy.

Speaker 3 (01:36:09):
But that's no or the other way around too. I mean,
based on what we saw Saturday this weekend, just just overall,
just by the way that that Brown's Eagles game is
on the NFL network, It is a Saturday night game
at link in Financial.

Speaker 2 (01:36:25):
Sure, I think it's like on the over under win
totals or something like that. I think we're sleeping on
Carolina a little bit. I think they might be pretty.

Speaker 4 (01:36:34):
Good kind of like Carolina this year. I think that where.

Speaker 3 (01:36:39):
You can't say you're sleeping on a team that has
a double digit win projection.

Speaker 2 (01:36:44):
Minnesota is not winning fourteen games this year. I promise
you that that's not happening.

Speaker 3 (01:36:48):
But you got a lot of things you're promising me
from last night's show too, that you're guaranteeing me right now.

Speaker 4 (01:36:53):
I think that the Bears were going to be a sleeper.
I'm not so sure about that. You're just losing your
mind praising them all day long.

Speaker 2 (01:37:01):
Well, they played the Dolphins, and now we know the
Dolphins think so, I think we might be.

Speaker 3 (01:37:05):
Under Listen, I'm not gonna give up on this one
until it's like four weeks into the season and they're
one to three. But I think the Steeler is gonna
be better than people are giving him. Absolutely, I think
they're gonna be pretty good. And I think that they're
gonna be able to protect Aaron Rodgers. They're gonna give
him time, and quarterbacks are protected anyway. I mean, there's
a reason why you can play until you're forty. It's

(01:37:28):
because you'll hardly get hit anymore, and if you do,
it's because you make a battery like Anthony Richardson did,
or it's a cheap shot.

Speaker 4 (01:37:37):
I mean though out there, I'm just so old.

Speaker 2 (01:37:41):
You've watched one video. That's all gos all I see
for crowd. By the way, I believe in what everybody
else is saying. At least I think what everybody else
is saying about the Cowboys. It's not gonna be seven
and ten probably the best that you can hope for
this year.

Speaker 4 (01:37:58):
Not gonna be a good year for the Cowboys. I
think they might be pretty good too.

Speaker 3 (01:38:02):
What is wrong with you? Do you watch football? I mean,
go as Steve Hartman, he said the same thing yesterday. Well,
now for sure, I know I'm right.

Speaker 4 (01:38:12):
What what's what's that mean?

Speaker 2 (01:38:14):
Every pick he makes is wrong? Here gonna tell you
that you're saying that about somebody. Yeah, yes I am.
I'm saying it about somebody.

Speaker 3 (01:38:24):
So you're saying somebody who started three and oh and
was celebrating like their team won the Super Bowl and
then lost four straight and is sitting at five hundred
on there anybody who's dogging somebody that their wrong.

Speaker 4 (01:38:37):
Cowboys are not having a good year. It ain't happening.

Speaker 2 (01:38:40):
They're lucky. They'll stay out of the cellar. That's just
because the Giants are in that division.

Speaker 3 (01:38:44):
Cowboys are good, Arnie, Cowboys are gonna be good this year.
Mike watching football? Yes, first time I've ever watched football.
Way to go, Way to go, says the man who
last week told us the Dolphins are going fifteen to
two watches one preseason game and is crying like a
baby for three out.

Speaker 4 (01:39:02):
By the way, you know that you're still finishing in
the last the Raiders, right?

Speaker 3 (01:39:05):
You know that right.

Speaker 4 (01:39:06):
I'm not trying to tell you that they're gonna finish them.

Speaker 2 (01:39:08):
I just wanted to know there's no not even a
chance they finished in third. I want you to know that, right,
Thank you? I mean, you've guaranteed and promised everything.

Speaker 3 (01:39:16):
I just you went wrong about all of it. That
makes me feel so much better about things. Come on,
say Stoff, You're terrible at picking things, so whenever you
say I promise you, it makes me automatically want.

Speaker 4 (01:39:30):
To go the other way.

Speaker 2 (01:39:30):
Do you know why they hired me at Fox because
of my great picking?

Speaker 4 (01:39:34):
You understand that, don't you?

Speaker 2 (01:39:36):
Yeah? Seven and seven, I'm sure that they're on fire
right now. What day are you sitting in on the
Vegas Show.

Speaker 3 (01:39:41):
Who they go with on that? Oh yeah, Brian No
and Jeff. They don't like me on that show. So
on the gambling show? What about the TV gambling shows?

Speaker 4 (01:39:49):
And Fox?

Speaker 2 (01:39:50):
I got you on that.

Speaker 5 (01:39:51):

Speaker 4 (01:40:35):

Speaker 2 (01:40:36):
My wife went said he was fantastic because she had
a ball, just a great time. He was just funny, witty, smart,
and I'm bummed out I didn't get a chance to
see him. I really want to go check it out, Chris,
you know why didn't you go? I do? I have
to deal with my house. Too much crap going up here.

(01:40:57):
So I was hoping to meet him back stay, but
that didn't happen. That that wasn't going to happen. None
of that was going on. I wanted to meet Jerry.

Speaker 3 (01:41:07):
You were going to meet Jerry Seinfeld and you stayed
around because your stuff's going on to the house on
a Saturday night.

Speaker 2 (01:41:14):
Yeah, well to be up here. You know it was
in Connecticut. The the concert was in Connecticut. What's the drive?
Five hours? Do that down? Why? Four hours? Yeah, more
like four hours. I had to work Saturday night. Anyway,
at the last minute, we got that call, so I'd
do that. Well.

Speaker 3 (01:41:33):
I would have loved it if you could have taken
the night off. I mean that would all thank you
that you are right. Well, I mean listen, literally, all
you've done is complain. You've taken shots at us all
night long, So it's kind of It's just I would
have loved if it was only one night with this.
The second way your attitude has been here of the
last twenty four hours. I mean, your team played a

(01:41:55):
preseason game and you're acting like they're on a five
game losing streak during the regular season.

Speaker 2 (01:42:00):
I hope I'm rocked. I'm usually never wrong. Yeah, yeah,
you're never wrong, never wrong.

Speaker 3 (01:42:04):
After you've spent the entire offseason telling us that you're
going to go fifteen and two and you get one
little sample size and you act like it's the end.

Speaker 2 (01:42:12):
Of the world. It was a bad step. But I
took a bite of the steak and I spit it out.
I don't need a second bite to know that I
don't like it. So you know you've tasted something if
you never tasted your wife's cooking, go this is crap
and spit it out on the floor.

Speaker 3 (01:42:27):
No, I've no How are you? You're supposed to be
a trophy husband. You're spitting out for all that makes
for you. Oh, I run to the sick.

Speaker 4 (01:42:36):
I'm like not eating this, No way, unbelievable.

Speaker 2 (01:42:41):
I'll just go out and get something fast food.

Speaker 3 (01:42:45):
Two tweets from the show tonight, Johnny writes, span your
calm down and take a bite to that cheesecake.

Speaker 4 (01:42:52):
Did you not have cheesecake before the show?

Speaker 2 (01:42:54):
To know, No, I have no food in the house
because I've not gone shopping at the market or Costco.
Usually my wife takes care of that stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:43:02):
Right, So you don't have the capacity to go to
your local you know, I'm no, Joshua.

Speaker 2 (01:43:07):
I don't. Actually I don't. I can't. First of all,
not going up to Costco. I was too busy this
week to go to Costco. It was way too much
going on. And what I want to buy. My wife's like, no,
we can't have that, we can't have this. And then
she comes home she was like, what did you buy?
And everything has seed oil, and it's just it's a
big old fight. So I don't even bother buying things

(01:43:27):
at the market anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:43:29):
Josh Allen on Twitter, Right, Arnie, both Eli Manning and
Peyton Manning came back for their senior year. Also, how
many teams look good in the preseason and sucking the
regular seasons? How many teams look awful and then win
the Super Bowl? Calm down, don't have a strike. I
was watching Josh Allen. Josh Allen is checking into Josh

(01:43:50):
I was watching TV, I go, is this the eighty
six Bears. I'm like, oh no, no, this was the
Bears that played the Dolphins today. That's I watched the.

Speaker 4 (01:43:57):
Whole game and the Bears did not look good. So
they had a couple of good defensive plays.

Speaker 3 (01:44:05):
Your Dolphins handed viewers fumbled on like the one in
chart line or something that's there.

Speaker 2 (01:44:10):
Here take the ball, here you go, everybody here.

Speaker 3 (01:44:13):
Johnny asks a very good question, does the NFL really
need more than one preseason game?

Speaker 2 (01:44:20):
Two? I'm okay with two.

Speaker 4 (01:44:21):
Let's go and do that.

Speaker 2 (01:44:23):
I mean, people do try to make the roster it is.
I know you say it's meaningless, but these guys are
fighting for ross.

Speaker 3 (01:44:29):
I don't think it's meaningless. I think that you're putting
too much. I think people put too much meaning on it.
And then sometimes it's the other there's a very good
like you have a medium and whenever it comes to
the preseason, it does don't have to be harsh to
the right or harsh to the left.

Speaker 2 (01:44:43):
You know what, I'm starting to notice, Like they said
when I was watching the Bills or whatever, they said, well,
the Bills have had the same UH team in camp
as they had last year, even the ones they cut.

Speaker 4 (01:44:57):
You know, these guys come back.

Speaker 2 (01:44:58):
For year two, year three, even if they don't make
the team, they're still working out and you know, figuring
out a way how to be involved, and they come
back even for the preseason.

Speaker 4 (01:45:08):
Might have been on the practice squad.

Speaker 2 (01:45:09):
Could be Yeah, Robert, he's on the private five or
seventh that he agreets that or what?

Speaker 4 (01:45:14):
No, the practice squad is like ten or twelve?

Speaker 2 (01:45:17):
Now is up to ten?

Speaker 4 (01:45:18):
I thought it was more like five or seven. I
don't think it's ever been that low.

Speaker 3 (01:45:21):
Hold on, let's look at the let's look at Steve
de Seger comes rolling in for his final update here tonight.

Speaker 4 (01:45:28):
Yeah, it's seventeen players, aren't he that are on that
practice See?

Speaker 7 (01:45:31):
Wow?

Speaker 4 (01:45:32):
All right, what's going on?

Speaker 1 (01:45:33):
Steve?

Speaker 4 (01:45:34):
What we got tonight to put a rap on the updates?

Speaker 6 (01:45:36):
Well, we did put a rap on the NFL first
full week of preseason. Remember there was that Friday game
that Detroit won at Atlanta. Game was suspended early in
the fourth quarter after an injury. Lions defensive back Morris
Norris had movement in his extremities, but was due to
stay overnight in a local hospital. Ap says he was
out of that hospital on Saturday and was at the

(01:45:57):
Lions facility today. There was an injury at Eagles practice today.
Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson carted off with a leg injury.
Titans injury last night for running back tij Spears. He's
expected to be out for a few weeks with a
high ankle sprain Thursday night. Dislocated finger for the Colts
quarterback Anthony Richardson. He returned to practice on Saturday, and

(01:46:18):
we'll get some playing time in the coming week. By
the way, there was a tie on Thursday, with the
Raiders at Seattle twenty three all. Today Miami at Chicago
finished twenty four all. Thank god, no overtime allowed in
the preseason in lab the Chargers beating New Orleans today
twenty seven to thirteen. Quarterback Trey Lance seven carries forty

(01:46:39):
eight yards, much better than the starter today, Taylor Heineke,
who was one of five passing eight yards and a sack.

Speaker 2 (01:46:46):
A note that.

Speaker 6 (01:46:47):
AP's preseason college football poll comes out Monday.

Speaker 4 (01:46:50):
We've already had the.

Speaker 6 (01:46:51):
Coaches poll with Texas and Ohio State won two and
Texas will open at Ohio State on the last Saturday
of August on Fox TV Big Noon Eastern Time kickoff.
August thirtieth, Texas at Ohio State NASCAR Noon game.

Speaker 2 (01:47:07):
What are you doing, buck geys?

Speaker 4 (01:47:10):
Of course they'll complain, yes, we want to get drunk
like pigs.

Speaker 6 (01:47:13):
NASCAR win at Watkins Glenn for Shane van Gisberg and
his fourth win on a road course this year, and
he won today by over eleven seconds. Christopher Bell finished second.
You imagine being at the finish line and just tapping
your foot waiting for some other marks.

Speaker 4 (01:47:27):
So good, so good on road courses.

Speaker 6 (01:47:30):
At the IndyCar n in Portland will power the winner.
So just two races left in the IndyCar season. Now
they'll be in a couple weeks at Milwaukee and then
at Nashville after that on Fox TV again. Among the
five w NBA games, wins for Atlanta at La the
late game to Las Vegas ninety four eighty six over
the Connecticut Son who are five and twenty five and

(01:47:50):
up for sale Asia Wilson in Vegas thirty two points
twenty rebounds. Washington won at Dallas, which is eight and
twenty four page. Beckers of Dallas did return from a
bad back and had seventeen points. Minnesota's twenty seven and
five after winning at New York, Justin Rose, the golf
winner in Memphis in a playoff baseball Sunday night game

(01:48:10):
to the Cardinals three to two over the Cubs. Brewers
are first in the NL Central, now six games up
on the Cubs.

Speaker 11 (01:48:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:48:18):
The Brewers won their ninth in a row today, seven
to sixth over the slumping Mets on a solo homer
bottom of the ninth off closer Edwin Diaz. The Mets,
who've lost eleven of twelve, five and a half games
back of the first place Phillies in the NL League
Get It. Phillies won four to two at Texas Toronto
five to four over the Dodgers in LA with three
late solo homers, the Dodgers left sixteen men on base.

(01:48:41):
Shoheo Toni did hit his forty first home run, but
the Dodger lead in the NL West is just two
games over the Padres. This was a nine game lead
five weeks ago. The Dodgers will be playing San Diego
head to head the next two weekends. Padres won at
home today six to two over Boston. Padres won have
won a eleven of fourteen. By the way, the Blue
Jays are a first place team in the Al East.

(01:49:04):
Boston still or now, I should say four games back.
Seattle won at seventh in a row, six to three
over the Rays. Cal Rawley at his forty fifth homer,
Houston beat the Yankees seven to one, and yes, the
Rockies lost again, lost thirteen to six at Arizona. The
Rockies have lost seven in a row. Their record is
thirty and eighty seven, fifty seven games under the five

(01:49:27):
hundred mark. We are not yet to mid August.

Speaker 2 (01:49:29):
Back to you, oh by with Steve real quick.

Speaker 4 (01:49:31):
Yes, no problem, buddy, no problem.

Speaker 2 (01:49:34):
So you got it.

Speaker 6 (01:49:36):
You're going to shovel the driveway.

Speaker 2 (01:49:38):
No, I thought you were asking. Someone said that you
wanted to know if you can have Saturday off.

Speaker 6 (01:49:43):
Oh, yeah, like I had last night off.

Speaker 2 (01:49:46):
Do you want Saturday off for now? You want Saturday
off or not.

Speaker 6 (01:49:49):
Like I had last night off?

Speaker 4 (01:49:50):
Well, you're not going to the Chargers Rams game.

Speaker 6 (01:49:53):
Yeah, theoretically I am going to the.

Speaker 2 (01:49:54):
Chargers Okay, so yes, you could have it off.

Speaker 6 (01:49:57):
By the way, as you reference the arnis really he
doesn't know about grocery shopping and is not going to
shovel the snow. As we head toward football season and
therefore winter, we can see how this is all going
to end.

Speaker 4 (01:50:07):
Right, it's not gonna end.

Speaker 6 (01:50:08):
It's alone in the house. He doesn't know how to shop,
and he's not gonna leave, and now he won't be
able to get out.

Speaker 2 (01:50:15):
I'm not gonna do much. I need something to do.
My wife is coming back just this weekend to do
the shopping.

Speaker 3 (01:50:22):
SOS A modern family there, how good week Steve?

Speaker 4 (01:50:27):
All right?

Speaker 6 (01:50:27):
See is Steve?

Speaker 4 (01:50:28):
Yes, you could have the Saturday off? No, brother, you
have no power.

Speaker 2 (01:50:31):
I'm giving We'll see if he shows.

Speaker 4 (01:50:33):
Up, then he's not asking you for the night off.

Speaker 2 (01:50:37):
Well I gave it to him, but you don't have to.
Can I go home?

Speaker 4 (01:50:42):
Can we tap out?

Speaker 3 (01:50:42):
In the last twenty minutes of the show, bigs are
coming up. Wait, we're not doing your picks tonight. What
do you mean we're not doing Mike?

Speaker 2 (01:50:49):
What do we doing?

Speaker 9 (01:50:50):
So?

Speaker 4 (01:50:50):
Punishment, Yes, I'll be better than seven and seven and
plots hit.

Speaker 3 (01:50:54):
Your punishment for crying the whole show tonight, for ruining
the program tonight when you're grinching and moaning about a preseason.
By the way, the seventeen number on the practice squad
is if you have an international player.

Speaker 4 (01:51:05):
If you don't, it's sixteen. Is it total?

Speaker 2 (01:51:07):
I had no idea was that many. I thought it
was like five or seven. I didn't know it was
that many.

Speaker 4 (01:51:11):
I don't think it's been that many for a while.

Speaker 3 (01:51:13):
I think we were at ten for a long time,
and then I think they whenever we got through COVID.
So going back with five years now, I think that's
when the number increased and they kept it that high.

Speaker 5 (01:51:24):
Yeah, I've got it here. So it was at five. Yeah,
they they increased it to ten and twenty fourteen, and.

Speaker 4 (01:51:29):
Then they's to twelve.

Speaker 2 (01:51:31):
Fine, shed already say you're like a decade behind, and yeah,
now up to sixteen.

Speaker 4 (01:51:37):
Yeah, what do they do?

Speaker 2 (01:51:38):
They all hang out together, go to bars. Hey, I'm
on the I'm on the rams. I just don't get
to suit up.

Speaker 3 (01:51:45):
No, have you everything you can to make sure that
you stay on that practice squad because when you get cut,
you've got to go start trying out for other teams.

Speaker 2 (01:51:53):
So you take the good get to tell everybody you're
on the team or no, not really, absolutely, you do. No,
you're on the practice squad's you know what a practice
squad player makes, like one hundreds. It's a little bit
more than that, man, Oh, get out of here.

Speaker 3 (01:52:08):
It is players with two or few create season make
a minimum of twelve five hundred dollars a week, with
a minimum of twenty one thousand dollars per week.

Speaker 4 (01:52:20):
If they have a little higher salary.

Speaker 3 (01:52:21):
So over an eighteen guys over an eighth you gotta
be good at sports. Over an eighteen week regular season.
That means you could get between two hundred and twenty
five thousand to three hundred and eighty three thousand dollars
for the season if you stay on and make a
practice squad.

Speaker 4 (01:52:37):
But it's a rough it's a rough life, man, it
really is.

Speaker 3 (01:52:40):
You might you might beer because you could get cut
at any moment.

Speaker 4 (01:52:46):
You don't get the sea, you don't suit up, you
don't get the travels.

Speaker 2 (01:52:49):
So you're just sitting around on the weekends, enjoying your
weekend doing nothing.

Speaker 4 (01:52:53):
Und nice to me.

Speaker 2 (01:52:54):
Yes, sounds great to me.

Speaker 3 (01:52:58):
It's no, because you can get fired tomorrow and then
you've got to go try out and do it for
another team or hope a GM likes you. It could
be over in a heartbeat, practice squad sucks. And you
could say, oh, you're just sitting there and watching the game. Well,
you watch the game and maybe see a guy get
hurt and opens up an opportunity, or a guy gets

(01:53:18):
hurt and oh, guess what they need to go get
another offensive lineman to help fill that void. So guess
what you as a strong safety or a corner that's
there as a practice squad guy, you might be on
the waiver wire and then you got to go try
out for four different teams. You're flying all over the place.
It's you could sit here and say, oh, I just
sit there and do anything. It sucks, But for what

(01:53:40):
I say that was for twelve sixte money. Yeah, that's
trying to make it work. But it all went back
to the Bills, who basically have then what I would
assume from what they said, their entire practice squad back
from last year.

Speaker 2 (01:53:55):
They had the entire roster back from last year. Yeah, no, yeah,
the practice squad players. I meant that there's no way
that the Bills have their entire roster, but yeah, the
practice squad player, the practice squad players, you're right about that.

Speaker 3 (01:54:07):
I will say this, The one thing that I do
find out in watching these TV broadcasts because the NFL
network will have the local broadcast. I get the Cowboys games.
Do you get any teams local broadcast for the preseason?
And do you get like the Patriots in Vermont? It's
always the Bills.

Speaker 2 (01:54:25):
But when the Bills, when the Bills don't pop on,
we'll get some combination of the Jets or the Giants.

Speaker 4 (01:54:31):
You get zero information on the opposing team, and I
get it because.

Speaker 3 (01:54:36):
It's the hometown broadcast, right right, Like for instance, the
Seahawks broadcast that had the Raiders game on Thursday night,
they barely mentioned even a Raiders player that would make
a tackle.

Speaker 4 (01:54:49):
It's like, who was that?

Speaker 3 (01:54:50):
I don't know what, just that I've got a roster
at while I'm watching this trying to figure these guys out,
because again, they couldn't care less about what the other
Paul I was watching the Vikings couldn't care he was
better because he's a radio guy.

Speaker 4 (01:55:01):
But they don't care to give you any stories about
the posse teams.

Speaker 3 (01:55:05):
So just make sure whenever you're watching the team broadcast,
if you're wanting to get any information the visitors, you
ain't gonna get it, man, it ain't happening.

Speaker 2 (01:55:12):
But you get the Bills broadcasts. They don't give you
the Patriots. How come no, they don't give us the Patriots.
We get them some games, but we don't get them
all the games, you know what I mean? Against like
a rotation of being up here and everyone. How come
you don't call preseason football.

Speaker 4 (01:55:27):
Though, because I don't have an NFL job. It's all
NFL guys.

Speaker 2 (01:55:33):
Usually they have like the worst of the worst call
those games. I thought for sure you'd be calling it. Yeah, No,
I don't mean anything bad again that nothing bad at
ah No, No, I don't know, but no, no, no, no, no,
you know what I mean, Just like the wor I
met the second team.

Speaker 3 (01:55:49):
All right, when we come back, Arney's Picture'll take us
home right here on Fox Sports Radio. All right, final segment,
Big Ben coming up next, Great John Mary Mack. Awesome
stuff is always from Ian Roddy. Thanks to Todd Furman
for finding time for us. As always, go follow him
on Twitter if you don't already at Todd Furman, Steve

(01:56:10):
de Seger killing it on updates, and the millions and
millions of editors behind the scene with all the great
audio from the preseason games.

Speaker 4 (01:56:19):
All right, Arenie, take it away. What you got on
your picks tonight?

Speaker 2 (01:56:21):
All right, A couple things I want to clear up
before we get to the picks. People have been tweeting me.
I want to make sure I didn't do a very
good job on my preseason all of Fame. So we
got to get an Eastern stick fifteen of eighteen one
forty nine, one touchdout, no interceptions. Kyle Allen seven of
eight one twenty two touchdowns and no interceptions. So I
totally forgot about those guys. All right, now let's get

(01:56:43):
to my picks. My friend seven and seven right now, Chris,
seven and seven? Whow you think I'd be better after
starting three and zero? Went four and seven? Chris? Something
real interesting though on the numbers. Did you happen to
take the numbers for the games coming up for this week?

Speaker 4 (01:57:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:57:04):
No, you know in the over others there was a
thirty twos and thirty threes this week or last week
in week two one?

Speaker 4 (01:57:12):
Yeah, some thirty nine and some forties out there.

Speaker 2 (01:57:15):
There's one thirty five and a half, two thirty six's
and a half, and those are the lowest ones. No,
thirty twos, thirty threes or thirty fours. In sight, matter
of fact, there's two forties. Most of the numbers are
between thirty seven and thirty nine. So Vegas checked it up.
There's no there's no doubt. Vegas checked up the points

(01:57:38):
about two to three points per game. I'm gonna take
Atlanta plus the three and a half against the Titans
on Friday, and I'm gonna take the Seattle Seahawks plus
two and a half against Kansas City at home in
that one. Let me get to Saturday. I'm all over
the Lions against my Dolphins and I get a point.
Why would the Dolphins be at one point favorite against

(01:58:00):
the Lions in Detroit? Someone want to explain that to me?

Speaker 4 (01:58:04):
My friend?

Speaker 3 (01:58:05):
Well, Jimillians looked pretty awful too in their preseason game.

Speaker 2 (01:58:08):
Please please give you green Bay plus four and a
half against the Colts. I'm going to take the Patriots.
I'm all over them plus to one against Minnesota. I
take Philadelphia minus to two against Cleveland, and I got
to go against San Francisco. You know, I thought maybe
that this was going to be a sleeper year for
San Francisco. They're not going to be a very good team,

(01:58:31):
are they, Chris? They may have problems again. Basically, I'm
taking Las Vegas minus three and a half my raiders.
So there you got some of my picks, two of them,
as you please. No longer strictly for entertainment purposes only.
But I can't do over unders Vegas. Check Delan on me.

Speaker 4 (01:58:51):
Maybe I should be taking the unders of this.

Speaker 2 (01:58:52):
I don't know they did overreact. It seems they did overreact.
We both thirty two's, no thirty threes, no thirty fours, nothing.

Speaker 4 (01:59:00):
A couple of tweets here before we get out of here.
Jason B.

Speaker 3 (01:59:04):
Diamond asks a very good question, but I think you
can answer it. He says, why don't you just DoorDash
yourself some food?

Speaker 2 (01:59:09):
Do you know how expensive that is?

Speaker 3 (01:59:11):
Gee, mister nobody, I want to put Arnie's mind at
ease a bit about his upcoming picks. I don't gamble,
and if I did, I'd be listening to the gravelly
voice Gambler or on another network or Todd Ferman. Not
from a guy who could tear an acl from all
the knee jerk reactions.

Speaker 2 (01:59:28):
He Wow, do you understand why I'm here at Fox?
Because of my football picks because I'm the best ever.
You don't understand that, Darryl wrtes, Is this a shock? Guys?

Speaker 3 (01:59:39):
Arnie didn't make it to an event he was supposed
to attend. Come on, now, had he actually gone to Seinfeld,
that would have been the news. In fact, it would
be breaking news. I had I have to sell my house,
do I not?

Speaker 1 (01:59:51):
Well?

Speaker 2 (01:59:52):
Are you gonna sell it on Saturday night? I had
an open house on Sunday. Oh, so the listeners could
have come to my house and hung out with me
if they wanted.

Speaker 3 (02:00:00):
Moro says, stinking genius. I have a confession. I'm a Shadorian.
What are the chances should Door gets first team reps
next week?

Speaker 2 (02:00:10):
That's not a knee jerk reaction. I'm jumping on the bandwagon.

Speaker 4 (02:00:13):
Let's go.

Speaker 2 (02:00:13):
He'll he'll play, though I think he should play.

Speaker 3 (02:00:15):
I guess well, it's not even about him playing, It's
about is he gonna get first team reps in practice?
Oh that's what everyone was throwing their hands up in
the air about too, And Brendan writes, do the Raiders
have the type of toxicity where smart players go to
them and catch the sickness of doing stupid stuff regarding
Max and Gino. They have to be better than giving

(02:00:37):
some knucklehead any attention. No double birds, please, Hey man,
I play stupid games, win stupid prizes, right. I don't
really have a problem with it. I think fans have
