Boom shaka laka.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number two, our number two. And the New
York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said recently, the quarterback
Justin Fields quote doesn't care about the media, saying you'll
be criticized for every little thing. Do you believe that
Fields doesn't really care about the critics? Also, Raiders coach

(00:25):
Pete Carroll said, Gino Smith is quote.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
The leader we needed. And you decode this one.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
And we have learned that multiple teams are monitoring Dolphins
wide receiver Tyreek Kill for a potential trade.

Speaker 1 (00:39):

all of it.

So we talk about the news of the day or
lead this hour from the Garden State, and that is
where the Jets coach Aaron Glenn, Aaron Glenn, longtime Lion

(02:15):
defensive guru, if you want to call him that. Aaron
Glenn waxing poetic recently about his quarterback. That's my quarterback,
Justin Fields, Justin Fields, the vagabond football hobo who failed
in Chicago and failed in Pittsburgh and now the carpetbagger
going to Jersey trying to make it with the Jets.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
So I know you heard what he said. Perhaps not.
We have audio on this.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Here is Aaron Glenn commenting on his quarterback, Justin Fields,
and the criticism that his quarterback is going to get
take a listen, let's go to the audio tape.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
So much noise on the outside. And again I've told
you guys, let's and I'll tell him this. He's gonna
get criticized for every little thing. And the good thing
about him is he is so mature. And we talk
about this on a consistent basis that he doesn't care.
All right. The only thing that we care about is
how is he operating and is he getting better? And
we see that in house, so we love where he's

(03:15):
at right now.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
All right.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
So that was Aaron Glenn, the key part of that
two words, doesn't care about the media, narrative and all that,
and he but praised how mature he is. Okay, congratulations,
So let us discuss the question Jets coach Aaron Glenn.
As you just heard coach of the Jets, Aaron Glenn

(03:38):
saying quarterback Justin Fields quote doesn't care about the media,
saying he'll be a criticized for every little thing. Do
you believe that Justin Fields does not care about the
critics and he's so mature he doesn't care. So my
observations on this one, I've got craftsmen, doctor Strange and Sephora.

(04:04):
Three things that have never been thrown together. But yet
here we go, and we'll put them all together, and
we are gonna make the Baba ganooche. We're gonna make
the Baba ganoosh.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
Now, number I said number one.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Now, when it comes to Justin Fields, I am firmly
on the side of the aisle that is agnostic.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
I'm a non believer. I am a non believer on
Justin Fields.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
How about ignoring the cliches and completing the basic five
yard pass play? How about that? See, that's been one
of the problems. That has been one of the problems.
Justin Fields flopped in Chicago. He got benched for the
rotting carcass of Russell Wilson in Pittsburgh.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
And listen, we do not care if he's.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Now Buddha reinc congratulations, zend like Phil Jackson, like bull crap.
We don't care about that. How about you not get
sacked on every third play? How about that? Oh, it's
the offensive loads full bid. Shut up, you're a moron.
It's the NFL. It's not some kind of yoga class.

(05:18):
It's not we're not doing hot yoga, although there's a
hot yoga studio right across from the Fox Sports Radio studios.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
The numbers do not lie by any measurement.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Justin Fields as a quarterback, blows in pirate terms. There
she blows Justin Fields his record as a starter. When
the other team scores more than twenty one points, more
than twenty one points, his team has a zero and
twenty one record. Now, I didn't play in the NFL.

(05:49):
That sucks. That sucks. The numbers don't lie. They're right
there in front of you. You literally cannot win with
Justin Fields at quarterback based on what has happened, unless
the defense is better than average. Even average is not
good enough with Justin Fields. Literally, I mean, the numbers

(06:09):
speak for themselves. And yet the fanboys are out there
and they're telling you it's.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
The over to Lin's fault. It's their fault.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
Give me a break. Justin Fields is in that Vince Young.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
If you're old.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
Enough to remember the old Texas Longhorns quarterback Vince Young
who loved the cheesecake factory, JaMarcus Russell yet again comes
up on the show and Tim Tebow in that mold
of quarterback. All the tools, all the tools, you know,
that's the word you always hear from the scouts, the
talient talent evaluators. They talk about all the tools. They

(06:45):
love talking about tools, Oh my god. And it's kind
of like buying a craftsman set. You've got all the
tools you can possibly want there. You've got the hammer
and congratulations on that's good hammer, craftsman hammer. But you
don't have a screwdriver. For some reason, they did not
have the screwdriver in there. And that's a.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
Job quarterbacked in this case that requires a screwdriver.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
You don't have one. Justin Fields, no screwdriver, doesn't have
it right. He's trying to screw in the shelf that
he got from Ikea, and he's using a sledgehammer to
try to screw in the shelf.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
Great runner, live arm.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
If you want him to throw the ball seventy yards
and make a great sizzle reel for TikTok man?

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Is he good man? Is he good? Right?

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Just absolutely a great The accuracy, don't ask right, forget
about it.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
The release time.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
That's the biggest, biggest knock on Justin Fields is how
long it takes to get rid of the football. He
does not treat it like a hot potato. He treats
it like it's a stuffed animal and he wants to
cuddle with it. You can make a tuna fish sandwich,
a large, not a small, not a small, a large

(08:01):
tuna fish sandwich. You can prepare the sandwich with all
the toppings you could possibly want in the time that
it takes Justin Fields.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
To release the ball.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
It's a one one thousand and two, one thousand and three,
one thousand chickens tuna sandwiches done three with about four
to one thousand and five. And Bombie throws the ball
right now at some point, at some point just observing
on the sidelines, observing the NFL, you have to update
the processor. It's kind of like using a computer from

(08:31):
nineteen ninety seven and then using a computer from twenty
twenty five. Processes things much quicker, right, You don't have
that little thing.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
Spinning the wheel spinning. Uh.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Justin Fields has a lot of spinning wheel when he's processing,
and he just does not has not shown the ability
to make the quick decision, the proper decision, and he
does not make the throws in time. And so Justin
Fields out there you talk about his maturity, Ah, he's
so mature. He's been in the league now for several
years with multiple teams.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
He's not some raw rookie, although he often looks like
a raw rookie when he's out there. And you got
Aaron Glenn.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
On cbe as predicted, right, what was the scouting report
on Aaron Glenn?

Speaker 1 (09:15):
He's like a poor man's Dan Campbell.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
He's doing that Tony Robbins bull crap a quarterback therapy.
That's the scouting report on Aaron Glenn. All right, enough,
justin Field is the summer blockbuster quarterback. All the hype,
a lot of hype coming to the Chicago Bears from
the Ohio State University, all the trailers. When you looked

(09:40):
at the clips online, boy those look good?

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Man? Did he look good?

Speaker 2 (09:44):
And you got that superhero poster kind of look to
you and all the explosions and all that man looks
really good, looks really good. Then you actually watch the
film and it's fast and the Furious nine.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
And it's all over again. You're like, what are we
doing here? Like? What are we doing here?

Speaker 2 (10:05):
It's loud, it's flashy, and you walk out thinking that
one't very good? I mean, why did I spend my time?
Why'd I spend my money? That's it rotten tomatoes score,
forget about it, forget about it.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
How low can you go? How low can you go?
But somehow the coach.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
Here thinks that the critics, well they just don't get
it right, that he's not going to listen to them,
and he's very mature, and maybe the critics are right.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
Though what if they're right?

Speaker 2 (10:38):
What if the critic in this case is accurate about
Justin Fields? I Fields is yet another quarterback in his
what is this his third proven year? He had approven
year with the Bears failed and last year in Pittsburgh
a stopover but really a prove it situation. And Mike Tomlin,
one of the more respected coaches in the NFL, he

(10:58):
thought so much of Justin Fields he continued to throw
out a player that has been done for multiple years
in Russell Wilson. But that's how little he thought of
Justin Fields.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
He wanted to put Russell Wilson out there instead. And
so here we are.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
If Field does not does not figure things out, and
the passing part, the passing part of the job, and
all the maturity that Aaron Glenn loves to talk about
there and not caring about the criticism, you can flush
that right down the toilet.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
There you go. The Jets will move on.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
They'll bring in some other slub will play quarterback next season.
Not page two. We continue a trend of talking about
mediocre quarterbacks. We go to Las Vegas. Now they know
a thing or two about mediocre quarterbacks. In Vegas, after
confronting a Seattle fan who had a mean sign, you.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Can't make this stuff up. How embarrassing.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
So this literally happens, So I don't watch the game.
I saw the clip. Raiders played Seattle recently and a
fan had a derogatory sign mocking the Raiders quarterback and
Raider coach Pete Carroll. Pete Carroll confronted, said Seattle fan,
there were the.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
Bird is the word. The bird is the word.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
Situations going on with multiple Raider players flicking the bird
to the fan, very upset by a side by a
freaking sign. You talk about empowering a Seattle Seahawk fan.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
What are you doing, you dummies? My god, who cares? Anyway?
So Raider coach Pete Carroll, good old Pete, Now.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
He said, this is not about the sign, but he
talked about his quarterback, Gino Smith, and said Gino Smith
is quote the leader we needed. He said, can you
decode this quote from Pete Carroll? So Polly Pete strikes again,
good old Pollyanna, Pete Pete Carroll, keep in mind, did

(13:04):
not say that Geno Smith.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Is a quote great quarterback. He didn't say that.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
He did not say he's going to win us a
lot of games. Pete Carroll did not say that. He
used the L word, which also goes for not only
leader but loser. But he used a leader. That is
coach speak. That is invisible ink. Coach speak is what

(13:30):
it is, invisible ink. Now we are like doctor Strange,
and we have a mastery of the mystical arts, a
mastery of the mystical arts, and we can translate.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
The meaning the meaning about this.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
So Carol said leader, because even Pete, good Pollyanna Pete
Carroll cannot blow that much smoke up your keyster about
the ability of Geno Smith, the great arm that he
has and all this. So let's talk about his locker
room presence, just like Aaron Glenn was talking about Justin
Field's maturity, then talk about how great Justin Fields is.

(14:07):
He talked about his maturity. Well, here's Pete Carroll talking
about what a leader Gino Smith is. That's what you say,
by the way, about a guy who cannot consistently play
at a high level.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Hello, exactly, he's a leader. He's a leader.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
You know who else is a great leader? Alex Smith
was a great leader. Ryan Fitzpatrick a great leader, really
good locker room guys.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
Leaders.

Speaker 2 (14:33):
And Gino is the definition the living, talking, the whole thing,
walking embodiment of mid You know, those are the type
of quarterbacks that you throw out there and you don't
want to tank the season. You don't want to finish
with a top five pick, but you also know that
you're not going to a super Bowl. You just want

(14:55):
to be somewhere in the middle. Somewhere in the middle.
Gino is that that guy. He's that guy, right, This
is the guy you add your roster when you're like, well, listen,
we don't want to bottom out, because that's what the
Raiders normally do. We don't bought him out, but we
also we don't have a franchise guy, so we'll just
plug him in there and we'll pretend and if seventeen

(15:17):
things go right, if we have that number one defense
in the NFL, the Raiders and they have great special teams.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
They have all that going for them.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
Then a couple of weird things happen here and there
with turnovers and the play. All of a sudden, the
Raiders find themselves in the super Bowl. But because you've
got that guy, not a great guy, you just got
a guy who's out there, That's what you got. And
who are you gonna call? All right, who are you
gonna call when things are not looking good? You need
a quarterback? Who are you gonna trade for? Gino West

(15:49):
is what you're gonna call. His career record eighty three
games starting forty and forty three. Gino Smith you can
practically hear if you listen closely, you can hear the
five hundred mark in the voice in the voice there
when he's in the huddle. Just average, just average, average average.

(16:11):
Gino Smith is the NFL spam at quarterback. He's a
spam quarterback. It's the canned meat of quarterbacks, that is
Geno Smith.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
And now you can't live off that. You can't live
off spam. There are people that love spam and they
eat a lot of spam. Many of them live in Hawaii.
I'm amazed how much spam are friends in.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Hawaii eat, but you can live on on spam. Nobody's
going to host a dinner party with friends and families
say hey, what's on the menu spam?

Speaker 1 (16:39):
No one's doing that. A little salt, little protein, and processed.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
Mystery meat is what you got there. I don't know
where it is. That's where the Raiders find themselves today.
That's where the Raider franchise is. They're so pathetic. How pathetic, God,
they're so pathetic. You've got Pete Carroll who's just just
out there and you know, essentially drooling over Gino Smith,
like this is.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
The guy I had to get, This is who I want.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
It's like you calm down, Pete, everything, calm down. You're
not getting the Legion of Boom Defense. You're not getting
Russell Wilson from twenty thirteen. You're getting Gino, who is
a PA quarterback, perfectly adequate quarterback, PA, perfectly adequate quarterback.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
And you call someone.

Speaker 2 (17:28):
A leader a leader when you can't call them elite
because you know they're not elite.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
You don't want to blatantly lie.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
It's kind of like saying that you went on a
blind date and your blind date has a great personality,
really good personality. You're like, okay, what does that mean?
That means buckle up. It is the mediocrity. Merry go round,
round and round and round and round on the mediocrity,
Marry go round, We go all right?

Speaker 1 (17:55):
Final point? Wait, guy to Miami, Miami, Miami.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
That Dolphins and Bears played an exhibition game. No, I
am not going to talk about that. Instead, we have
learned over the weekend that there are said to be
multiple multiple teams that are monitoring Dolphins wide receiver, the
always disgruntled Tyreek Hill, Dolphins wide receiver, for a potential trade.

(18:25):
Could you see that happening? Could you see Tyreek Hill
actually being traded? The windows seemingly closed once the training
camp portion opened up, but there are reports multiple teams
are eyeing the Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill for a
late training camp trade before the regular season gets going

(18:47):
early next month, as we do this show here on
this eleventh of August. So I am one thousand percent,
one thousand percent in the camp of yes, I could
see the happening. The Dolphins should have could have would
have traded Tyreek Hill in the offseason.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
That's what they should have done. They did not do
that bad job by them, and so here we are.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
Tyreek Hill is like a high end sports cars, like
a Maserati. You got the turbo engine. Everything looks really good,
and yet the check engine light keeps coming on. The
second you stop complimenting the turbo engine, Tyreek Hill check
engine light pops on.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
Just like that.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
And he's a guy. If you look at his resume,
he will take you from zero to sixty in under
four seconds. Zero sixty and under four seconds, and I
want out of your team in under two seconds. So
zero to sixty in less than four and I want
out in under two Tyreek. Now I'm a talk shows.

(19:56):
Tyreek Hill's good for what I do because he does
dumb things, and I live on people doing dumb things
and then goofing on them.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
That's the job profile. I get it.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
But Tyreek, He's got more mood swings on the sidelines
than a Kardashian trying to decide what to get at SPA, right,
And it's just.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
There's a lot going on there.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
One minute, he's grinning ear to ear, the happiest guy
in the world, right, and he just burns some defensive
back for an eighty yard catch and run touchdown. The
next he's giving you the silent treatment because he only
had eight targets and he thought he was gonna get
nine or ten. But she only threw the ball to
him eight times, and that's clearly not enough for a

(20:37):
player of the.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
Pedigree of Tyreek Hill.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
So we suspect what's going on here with no insider information,
we suspect that Miami is putting out feels kind of
like the drunk, horny guy on Tinder at one p
thirty or two o'clock in the morning. Hey you up,
what are you up to?

Speaker 1 (20:57):
You know, it's like.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
Seeing if anyone else is also drunk enough to take
on the cheetah.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Now there are teams out there that makes sense.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
The obvious ones teams that are in it to win it,
the Detroit Lions, the Washington Commanders who have these are
both NFC teams. The Commanders have a problem with Terry McLaurin,
so there's an option there.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
And then some other teams in the in the AFC.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
If the Dolphins would be willing to deal the teams
that they could use Tyreek Hill, like the Chargers and
the Broncos as possibilities.

move there.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
But you got to think of an item that that
middle aged men want to eat, because that's most most
of the people that show up to this are middle
aged dudes. So what do they want to eat? They
don't want to eat fried pickles? Come on, you do
a specialty hot dogs.

Meet and greet, next Malar, meet and greet coming up

like two weeks less than two weeks, less than two weeks.

(29:28):
Just today's the eleventh and I did the math and
this is the twenty third, so we're twelve days away
from that. Go back to the phones and we'll say
hello to Actually, before we go to the phone, we
I wanted to get the play of the day, the
play of the day in and the play of the day.
The Brewers and the New York Mets, and the Brewers

(29:51):
were trailing five to nothing against the Mets, and they
slowly worked their way back into the game and and
then they found the magic touch, or should I say,
Isaac Collins found the magic touch, and that leads us
into the tire Iraq Play of the day to two

(30:14):
fly ball, A deep.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Right, it is back, so back.

Speaker 2 (30:22):
Isaac Collins walks it off against the Mets.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
You can't make it up. Well, we didn't make it off.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
That's a Brewers radio on the call, Isaac Collins, of
all people, for the Milwaukee Brewers, who has had a
pretty solid year for the Brewer crew this year, hitting
two ninety five as one of their outfielders, and he
hits the walk off home run. That is the tire
Iraq Play of the day and Tireraq. For over forty years,

(30:52):
Tyraq has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
what and where they drive. Ship fast and freeback by
free road hazard protection with convenient the installation options like
mobile tire installation, tire ract dot Com the way tire
buying should be. Let's say hello to Andre in the Commonwealth.
Hello Andre.

Speaker 6 (31:12):
Ben, how were you good? Good to be with you.

Speaker 7 (31:14):
You know, we're talking about Kevin Durant. For some reason,
he always wants to punch down, getting involved in these
social media squabbles, you know what I mean. Even Willis
he doesn't, he doesn't appreciation, you know, he feels like
Kevin Durant.

Speaker 6 (31:27):
You know, you gotta be a.

Speaker 7 (31:28):
Gotta be the bigger man, you know what I mean,
one of the two people and in the battle is
a multimillionaire, you know, and then one of them might
be Willis who's on his way to fame and fortune.
But Kevin Durant, you're the other one, you know what
I mean. So you gotta you gotta you know what
I mean, You got you gotta step back, and you
gotta step back.

Speaker 6 (31:43):
From the action. You know, I don't.

Speaker 7 (31:45):
I don't see if that's necessarily warrants Willis doesn't either.
If you're talking a lot of NFL, right, what do
the Miami Dolphins think and trying to prove tire to
kill right?

Speaker 6 (31:55):
How are you gonna win? The AfD East. Are you
afraid of the Tom Brady statue?

Speaker 7 (31:59):
Is that what's going on here?

Speaker 6 (32:00):
You're afraid of the Tom Brady statue? Is the Brady
statue gonna be playing?

Speaker 2 (32:05):
I'm afraid of the Tom Brady statue. I'm going to
talk about that. That is a scary statue. That is
I mean, that is a communist statue. That Tom Brady statue.
That is a wildcat. I mean, my god, all right, I.

Speaker 7 (32:17):
Don't know if we need to unbuild the statue. Willis
was not happy to see it. Hold on, he needs
a snacker room. He's going crazy. We need a snacker
hold on there.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
You listening to our live coverage, Andre giving his dog?

Speaker 7 (32:29):
Willis that one that one fell down the stairs?

Speaker 2 (32:32):
Old gonna if you can get an upstairs and a downstairs,
Look at you, you're a big baller. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (32:38):
I don't think it's just a light in the suburbs,
you know what I mean. I'm here in tourist town,
you know what I mean. It's just the fact of
nature here. You know, if I lived in a civilized
area where they had twenty four hour food service, been
all right, we don't know, we don't have the twenty
four hour food.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
No, you can't get it. You can't get a pizza
or a sandwich or something like that. You don't have.

Speaker 7 (32:55):
Okay, everything shut down at one o'clock. It's on civilized.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
It's all right. A bunch of rounded by a bunch
of old people. They go to bed early. What's up
with that?

Speaker 6 (33:03):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 7 (33:03):
You like people got the NIMBYism, right, we got the ymbiism.
You know what I mean that people don't want you
living in their second home.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
Right.

Speaker 7 (33:10):
You know, there's not my not in my backyard, not
in my second homes backyard. You know, it's it's wild
hearing towards town. But we make the best of it, right,
you know, Willis we got you know, same thing. Things are,
same thing, Things are manageable.

Speaker 6 (33:20):
But listen, Tyree Hill.

Speaker 7 (33:21):
He needs to stay with the Dolphins so that they
can stay in the play.

Speaker 6 (33:25):
I don't know what they're thinking.

Speaker 7 (33:26):
The Patriots are going to be better, but they're not
going to be world beaters. Mike brad was gonna come
and he's gonna bring some stability. But in the AFC
East formerly the AFC Least. Okay, you got the bills okay,
the predominant favorite. But then Dolphins, you keep making study,
you mix things up here. The Patriots might get some confidence,
and you know, we know the Jets are you know,
who knows what the Jets are going to even try
to do. But I don't like it, particularly Mike McDaniel.

Speaker 6 (33:49):
He's one of these coaches that's getting near to the
hot seat. I would put Mike Tom he's.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
On the hot jot. Thomas never on a hot seat.
He's not. Tom will have that job till he wants
to leave. He's not on the hot seat.

Speaker 2 (33:59):
But Daniels absolutely on the hot seat one thousand percent. However,
the addition by subtraction, Andrea if Tyreek is a troublemaker
and causing problems and in the locker, even see Willis
agrees with that. You've got to get rid of the
bad dog. You kicked the bad dog out of the back.
You gotta do it. That's right on, Willis, My god, Andre,

(34:21):
the dog is very loud again. I'm amazed at the
allowed people, very upset with your dog all of a sudden,
it's wild.

Speaker 7 (34:27):
Should be they should recognize what you did to us
when we didn't make the final.

Speaker 6 (34:30):
Four and the Mallet Palooza.

Speaker 7 (34:32):
Okay, that lit a spark, Ben, Okay, final fourth, that
spark is lit when we're going hard, Ben.

Speaker 6 (34:39):
And turn until the next showdown. Yeah, are working on
my lyrics?

Speaker 2 (34:43):
All right, well you practice. I gotta go, but thank you.
Andrew the Great Andre and his dog willis a one
two punch there from the Commonwealth, right right over there,
right over there, mister Irrigation, says Ben, say the name again,
the place in Vegues.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
It sounded like marbles were in his mouth.

Speaker 2 (35:04):

the same place we were last year, mister Irrigation. And
last year I went back and I looked at my notes.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
No, the answer is Tim Boyle on my ass, Tim Boyle.

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Who's now with the Tennessee Times.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
Eighteen touchdown passes in exhibition games since twenty seventeen.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
Here we go, It's Mallard. How about that?

Speaker 4 (38:39):
To the third degree?

Speaker 1 (38:41):
This is one big f gets going all right? Cool?

Speaker 8 (38:45):
John Gruden recently spoke to the Georgia Bulldogs and in
his speech he said he'd quote died to coach in
the SEC. There aren't any openings right now, but could
you see Gruden eventually landing somewhere.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
Well, the SEC is a high turnover conference, and yeah, absolutely,
you look at some of these teams that expect to
be good that haven't been good enough.

Speaker 1 (39:04):
You look at a.

Speaker 2 (39:05):
School like the Florida Gators for example, hiring John Gruden
will be a big get or a bottom feeding team
in the SEC like South Carolina or an underachieving team
Texas and m Absolutely, he's got a lot of baggage,
but they don't care about baggage in Southern Fried football
if you can win next.

Speaker 8 (39:23):
It's been one preseason game, but already people are saying
that Jackson Dart has closed the gap between himself and
Russell Wilson. Yeah, close the gap and that Dart becoming
quarterback one could be closer than we think.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
Ben, when do you think that happens?

Speaker 2 (39:36):
Listen, unless Russell Wilson gets hurt, He's gonna start the
regular season as the QB one for the Giants. But
they have a tough schedule. They open up at Washington
at Dallas. That should be a winnable game Kansas City
and the Chargers. So I say week five, Week five,
if Jackson Darts doesn't blow, he could take over the
Giants play the Saints in Week five, so I'm circling

(39:58):
that date next.

Speaker 8 (40:00):
Celtics legend Bob Coozy turned ninety seven years old Saturday birthday.
Cous Yeah, and he told a reporter that he sees
a major rebuilding effort by the Celtics because Jalen Brown
isn't the level of superstar that Jason Tatum.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
Is hot take, and that he won't bring them to
the promised land. Oku's ripping him, is he right? Man?

Speaker 2 (40:17):
Well, the Celtics have trimmed away a lot of their roster.
They got rid of Porzingis, they got, you know, several
of those rotation guys, those secondary guys are gone. So
it's not if they're the same team and Jalen Brown.
They just lost Jason Tatum. You say, okay, there's something
they can can work with, but you know, it's it's

(40:39):
the Jalen Brown's weaknesses. He can only apparently go one
way and all that. I don't think Kozy's wrong and
let's put it that way, but it's more than just
Jalen Brown is not the headline star.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
There's more to it, are there? It is? How did
we do?

Speaker 7 (40:55):
The guy?

Speaker 1 (40:56):
I won the game? Hollering James
