up in a couple of minutes. But one thing really
cool from the end of this game that I want
to get to for a second. I don't mean Breton
are finally making an extra point. You saw the Cowboys
in victory formation. Do the the old Tom Landry offensive
(01:07):
line shift where the where the Cowboys lineman get down
and they stand up and they move a little bit
and they go back down. Uh, And I thought that
was pretty cool. I like that the Cowboys do something
like that a nod in their past. It's kind of
Cavante Turpin did the big backflip before, and it's nice
to see that that's gotten recognized because that's something that
you know, Look, millennials have no idea what that is.
(01:27):
Why did the Cowboys line? Why did they stand up? Well,
it's a think the Cowboys used to do. Why it's unclear,
but potentially it was because it would keep the defense
off balance and not trying to recognize the play. But
why did they do it? Well, it's just fun to watch.
They just did it. It's fun. Let him do it.
They didn't have the opportunity to try eleven fedoras onto
(01:48):
the field that they can strap over the top of
their helmets. Yeah, no, that would have been tough. Although
don't you think if you're the Cowboys, you have a
Fedora helmet game at some point? Right? You know in
MLB there were the different casts. Do you have a
special helmet that that's a Fedora? A little disappointed that
we uh were While we're on the subject of logos
and helmets and uniforms that you know, they couldn't have
(02:09):
brought out the Creamsicles for this one, just because Creamsicles
and the Cowboys were that we're the white ones with
the stars on the solder, because because if this really
is it for, you know, not to bury the lead
the the Tom Brady exit game from Tampa, he'll never
wear it. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, which means I'm just
gonna have to go back and look at old pictures
of Steve Young and Vinny Testa Verity. I love watching
(02:32):
Steve Young on ESPN right now, going, Hey, I'm gonna
throw four touchdowns against the Cowboys next week. You watch.
I'm feeling pretty spry right now. I have in my sixties,
but I can still run. I'm gonna point down field,
chuck it up to Jerry rise deep. Oh we we
got this game next week. What you got for a
Scott Van Pelt, I got this game? Turn back time
(02:52):
back to super teams. Right, everybody complains about the NBA
and guys team, go back and look at what the
teams were able to do back then in the NFL.
How do you think he saw the same two or
three teams all the time. Is that's the way it worked.
What and actually if I'm if I'm gonna be if
I'm gonna be accurate. He was probably calling Scott van
Pell Boomer. Alright, we're a big game next week, Boomer,
(03:13):
this is what I had Steve. Obviously, the Ricky Waters
injury ample not quite what you thought he was. How
do you get by running the football? Yeah? I know
you've been waiting to get another burmanism in since we
got robbed out of the fastest three minutes we did.
Where was he tonight? I don't know. There was five
games in Super Wild Wild Card week. It was on
the network, not only on ESPN, he aljoin on ABC.
(03:36):
It was all over another purty good weekend from the
forty Niners teacher. No, no, you didn't. I hate you,
by the way, that was week two. You don't. You
can't use that again in a week six weeks seven
of the pretty experience. But he had to keep going
with that, though, don't you. You have to keep going
with that, don't you. Yeah, but you gotta keep getting
new ones next week because next we will be TJ.
(03:58):
The Cowboys had a pretty good run until they ran
into the Niners. Today, until they ran into Matt in
Candlestick Boy at t J. It's very very apropos as
we close in on February. Uh, the ground dog coming
(04:19):
out of his burrow to show us the Bengals winning
this past weekend, t J. I needed that. I needed
you got that in It's good. But yeah, but I
like seeing the Cowboys shift. That's got They should do
that in the middle of the game. Why save it
to the do in the middle of the game, have
a play, have a crazy Doug Peterson would do that.
Let's do the Cowboys shift for a play. I've always
(04:40):
said they should throw up the one that we used
to use when you were you were kids. You know
the guy has you know it starts limping and then
all of a sudden streaks pass down. You know that
kind of thing. Not really watch me. I watch to
be sprint by you and then catch a lob. Yeah.
So let's take a us into Tom Brady. Here he
(05:01):
is from just a couple of moments ago, possibly for
his last time as a buccaneer, possibly for his last
time in the NFL. What did he have to say
following the Cowboys victory over the Bucks? You you feel cool?
That would have been the first fire he'd shown up today.
Hey Tysher, tell me right now, who was the year
(05:23):
cool too? Who do you mean we're saying you're cool?
He was looking at Jerry Jones for some reason. He
was so I could go get him if I want.
But I just beat the guy so and I'm not
paying him, but I'm paying back. So that's great. But
it's okay because I've mastered Tom Travel. So I'm now
gonna go back in time and sign Brady ten years ago.
And on an alternate world, the cowboys are gonna have
Tom Brady. I mean, I gotta get to that world
(05:45):
and get back. It's very difficult. Scarlett, which is gonna
tell me all about it, Uh, you know the one
that's not from the Full House, Uh, the other one,
and it's gonna get me back there. And also the
guy from the Office who was in it, not Dwight,
but the other guy the guys playing the gym Ryan
character on the television show Now by the Clancy books,
he was in that movie too, well played, and so
(06:07):
was so was Piccard. Now if we could just get
the Piccard had had that had the cameo in the
movie too. It was kind of fun. You know that
he he reminded me of the Star Wars universe. Not
to get too far off the beaten paths here, but
you've already taken but you've already taken us there, so
I goes he was the version of Darth Maul. Oh cool.
(06:29):
Oh no, this guy's gonna be great. Oh no, you
know he had that good scene. He didn't get a second.
There's always the animated TV show where he comes back
as a half spider, so we'll see if that works.
All right. So here's Tom Brady following the Buccaneers defeat
at the hands of the Cowboys. Not the way we
(06:51):
wanted to end it, but we didn't start. I'll gi
him a lot of credit. They played a good game,
made a lot more play than we did and uh
so tough night do anything defensively. That was all surprising
out there. Uh from a scheme standpoint, they played pretty good.
(07:11):
You know, they played good defensively and put a lot
of pressure on us, and we just couldn't make no place.
So kind of tiptical the way we played all year.
Just inefficient the passing game and not very good in
the run games. So it's hard to be good teams
like that. Second for a second, when did it become
the the rule? Because you heard them fighting over who
(07:31):
got to ask the first question? When did it become
the rule? At the first question for the quarterback always
is hey, did they do anything that surprised you? Because
what are they gonna say, well, what's what's a quarterback?
And to say, oh, yeah, man, there's crap that we're
prepared for. We didn't prepare for any of this. What
are you the Chargers? And you know we didn't prepare
for any of this? Are you kidding? We did? We did.
We didn't know anything they were gonna do. Defensively, we
(07:52):
didn't watch a minute the game film all week long.
In fact, we didn't even practice. Don't tell anybody. We
just went to David Busters every day. We were playing
video games like that's become the Hey, what did they
do that surprised you? What would have all of the
talking heads that over the course of the here he's
not his body in he has been preparing and all
(08:12):
of that stuff. It's like, you know, I really wasn't prepared.
You know, it was all on me. Really watched much
game tape this week. I figured it was you know,
we're just playing the Cowboys. I'm just waiting for the
season to be over. Honestly, you saw the season I've had, right,
you know, I got a lot of stuff going on. Man,
I've had a I've got a difficult and now at
the end, now like this new girl that they got
video of me? Now, you know, I don't know, man,
(08:33):
It's right, it's tough. No, No, there's video. I mean
there's pictures. Well, but it's still I mean, you're you're
alleging some going on. What did what did they do
that surprised you? What did you surprise you? So many
times you watched that video, You're creep surprise. I'm just saying, well,
I've seen what do you were you going back to
the press conference where you still talking about the video?
Where did everybody else I read then get video like
(08:55):
you were talking about the video. I read the New
York Post. Didn't you do anything that surprised you? What
do you do? Almost know? You know what I'm don't
stop him, all those clicks, both of you just stop.
You know what I'm talking. Tie Shirt knows what I'm
talking to. Stop with this. It is not it's not
ten o'clock yet. All right. Now, on that note, let's
(09:15):
go back to Tom Brady talking following the game. You
you you trying to go away there, I was. I
was trying to throw it to Chris and the other
guys were blocked in and just trying to throw it
out and then obviously get enough on it. It certainly
didn't help our cause, Tommy and you didn't contribute to
(09:36):
the way tonight. They're just having Ryan Jensen out there
tonight and stopping the ball. Ye. Who can you say
that has come back, that has played tonight that did
for you guys game. Yeah, just super proud of him
and all that he's gone through this year. Yeah, it's
tough injury that he had battled all the way back
and really committed himself the last six eight weeks to
prepare himself to play and did it. So it says
(09:59):
a lot about who he is and certainly a guy
you can depend on and count them. How right, stop? Stop? Stop?
How is that the third question? What was it like
having Ryan Jensen snapped the ball to you? What kind
of question? Off? Listen? Great story, glad he was back
out there, and Tom Brady said wonderful things about but
how is that the third unless unless he says, hey,
(10:20):
you know I did do that solid giving you. Hey,
make sure you asked me about Ryan Jensen. Sure, sure,
Like like, what it's like for him to snap the
ball to you? Yeah? Oh great? What's it like for
him to snap the ball? That's like an early question
in a win and a loss. That's the Hey, before
you go, he saw Jensen fight back again, like something
down the depth chart or when he comes to clean
(10:40):
out his locker. That's not even a question. That's a
question for like week four of the preseason, where all
the storylines are done and it's Hey, Ryan, what does
it mean for him to snap the ball to you?
I mean really? Yeah? Again, that's your third question. His
whole career is in balance, you know what's like from
his generally performance. He had to throw the ball sixty
(11:03):
six times, so hopefully they cashed out the over on
the forty three and a half early enough that you
could reinvest it in some other wagers for the second
half of the game. But all of these different things,
the the sex, the pressures, the miss throws, the timing,
that interception, okay, check that box. But to get to Jensen, Hey, Tom,
(11:26):
Ryan Jensen's brother from Ryan Jensen dot com. Listen, what
was it like for Ryan Gentsen snapped the ball to
you tonight? All right, let's go back back to more, Brady.
You want to do next? It's obviously it's gonna be in.
I'm gonna go home and get a good night's sleep
as good as I can tonight, and uh or you
want to be going to stuff out. I means time.
(11:47):
You know, this has been a lot of focus on,
you know, this game. So yeah, it's just be one
day at a time, truly. For all the struggles this season,
you guys have had the at least possibility of the
playoffs and what could happen there. How hard is the
finality you're losing the season. They're always tough, but you know,
we didn't earn it, so you know, they did. I
(12:09):
think that there's a part of football where I feel
like it's sometimes you get lucky, but most of the time,
you know, the team that earns it, you know, wins.
And they played good all year. They played good tonight,
and they played well as a team. They were very coordinated.
They played well on offensive but well defensively. They missed
some kicks on special teams. But you know, we just
we just couldn't get enough done offensively to put your
(12:29):
pressure on them. Wow. Look, let me get in with
that handmaker on Brett Mahr. And they played well and
they missed some kicks on special. But if he's going
to talk about the team they played, well here you
know it's three phases. He just wanted to identify all three.
And those two did their job. Bret Mare did not
do his job. I have to bring that up. Well,
why do you have to bring that up? Because it
made him feel good in the moment. At least one
(12:51):
of the guys on the other team didn't kick their
ass tonight or kick anything else for that matter. Tom,
would you be all at the game tonight? Yeah? It
was tough, but wow, did you see mom at four
extra points? I've never seen that. I stopped offensive meetings
on the sideline because I wanted to come watch the
kicks as they went on. If he'd continue to expound
on that, that would have been a great Richard gear
and give him the old razzle dazzle, a kind of
(13:13):
moment if forever it was like, wow, can we talk
about their special teams? That's gonna be a problem for
that next week against San Francisco. What else you got? Yeah,
almost like he's doing his audition for what he would
sound like on Fox. Okay, that's a part. I mean
they can't struggle with in a big road test next
week against that juggernaut San Francisco. You know, we played
the Niners a couple of weeks ago. Dot dot dot.
(13:36):
See see what I did there? I turned it into it,
I did. But I will say this if he thinks saying, hey,
they struggled, have been on special teams with four missed kicks?
Is gonna get it done on television? It's not. That's
not going to get it done. Man. Uh, they struggled
a little bit with the missed extra Hey, you've watched
a lot of games. That's more insightful than a lot
(13:56):
of stuff you've been hearing coming from the booth boy
that they really struggle by missing extra points? Is that
a hot take? Is that what they call a hot
take in the business. On Saturday, the Michael's Dongee Booth,
the most excited Dungee Gut at all was on that
fourth down call Wow, good call, Like, yeah, you're with us?
(14:18):
Twitter it out about a Fresca, Mike gets swollen them.
So there's Tom Brady. He says he's truly taking it
one day at a time. So you want to know
what's next for Tom Brady, We will absolutely tell you
how the off season is gonna go for him, if
he's gonna be back playing next season. Are you gonna
say this is it? This is it? That's coming up next?
In the tire rack dot Com studios. This is Fox
(14:38):
Sports Radio. Be sure to catch live editions of The
Jason Smith Show with Mike harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern,
seven pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the I
Heart Radio app. Shane Hey, shame on ESPN for missing
the first extra point Brett Maher made tonight. Guy missed
(15:00):
four in a row and they joined it in progress?
Where was my dramatic building? We're showing another replay of
the Seedee Lamb touchdown. Seriously, they're not used to having
big games. What do you what you're in say? This
is gonna be the highest rated game in the history
of that point. How do you? How do you? How
are you not there to show the storyline that everybody
wants to see. Will Brett Maher missed this extra point.
(15:22):
He misses four in a row, and we don't see
the fifth one that he makes until it's almost all
the way through. What the hell they thought the telecast
had something to do with it, showing him setting up
for said destroy called it off. Guys, this is the way.
This is the worldwide leader. Man, come on, you gotta
you gotta be leader for what for? Not for not
(15:43):
showing Brett more extra point? By the come on man
breakdown of the blown coverage? Show it again? How did
I get it? That is such an epic fail. Man,
I'm telling you that is a big and you're never
allowed in Bristol again after proof. I don't think I'm
allowed there anyway. Do you want to go back to Bristol?
(16:06):
But I mean they have a like, if you really
want to do recreate that experience, you can do it
here in Los Angeles. I could, but you know, I
mean I I can't. But you have a plaque that
hangs there or something. They still talk about me being
the best P A and A P that we're there.
You know. I saw a Sense ofs episode that that
sounded like that where Marge was the best stage manager
ever and that it became a musical thing, and it's like,
(16:31):
all right, you're you're not one of the actors. And
I've seen this play out in live and in living color.
But then later on recognized as a legend by others
who use her notes and system and call her a
legend and ask her to sign it. Maybe you could
find that same experience I might be able to the
first thing I would do is say, hey, let's get
back and show the the extra point about there's one
(16:52):
of your old friends. I mean, they blotched it, so
it really Parallelson's really well ridiculous. Uh, here's it here.
So here's how far that the uh, the mighty have
fallen right for ESPN, right missing the Brett Martin. I'm
gonna tell you a really fun story. So when I
was no, this is really great. So when I was
there in as as a protess back in the early nineties,
(17:16):
was it back when the Last Cowboys wrote? I was
I was no. No, I hadn't even gotten there yet.
I was still a senior at Syracuse. I hadn't gotten
into ESPN. Dude, it doesn't matter, man, I had n
I l and extra years because of COVID, because he
had that what did you say that's actually gumped? What
(17:39):
I said, I think he's an eligible ability. Yeah, you
took the L and then you were eligible. But he
had that N I L deal where he got those
sleeves and hats. Uh. This is a great story. So
Wayne Gretzky is is a goal away from breaking Gordy
House record, which is a really big deal, right, and
we're gonna watch Alex Ovegkin break it at some point.
(18:00):
So the guy who was producing Sports Center, Mike McQuaid,
is a guy's name, and you hear his name now
and again, and Mike McCoy, Mike McQuaid, not Mike McCoy,
Mike McCoy, the guy that couldn't look when they were
when the charges were kicking extra points, right, he couldn't
look near the field goals. So you see his name
once in a while in blogs every places. I was
one of his guys, right way. I worked with him
on the eleven o'clock Sports Center for a long time
(18:22):
and he was doing Sports Center and the Kings were
playing a game and it was on the West Coast,
so it was going on during Sports Center, and every
time Gretzky would get on the ice, they would go
to it live so we can watch Gretzky shift, which
is you know, forty five seconds long, and they say, okay, Gretzky, Okay,
he's off the ice. Let's go back and then you know,
three or four minutes, we'll go by and they go
(18:42):
back to it. So Gretzky's goal eight oh two, he's
on the ice and it looks like he's getting ready
to skate off, and so they're like, okay, let's throw
it back to Bristol for Sports Center, and the producer sees,
because he's a hockey fan, sees Gretzky get waved back
on the ice because he thought the Kings could catch
uh catch Cooks in the line change. So he says, no, no, go,
(19:04):
go go. So Gretzky goes. So they see who's no, no, no,
stay stay, stay stay honestly on it. So they stay on.
They were I mean, it was let's go back to
let's go back to the sports Center and no, no, no, stay,
stay stay, and the play developed. Gretzky comes in and scores,
and he scores on Sports Center for everybody to see.
And the guy became a legend after that because we
nearly dumped out of it, and then he would have
(19:24):
had then he scored like ten seconds later, right, and
now here you have tonight, here's the biggest facts ball
down in the middle. We gotta see Brett Maher and
his extra points. Right, No, no, no, we're gonna we're
gonna join that as a ball is going through the
net for Brett Mark congratulations, bad bad direction man. Failure
in the truck. Someone someone got yelled at, someone got
(19:44):
written up for that. Failure to act. They had one
one job. Well not anymore. Hey, look at your point act,
your point act, your point. I guarantee that's someone sent
in the control room. All right, got that ready, that's
your point white out, whiteout, trying to tell Joe and
Troy to get out of it so they can get
back to the p a t dumb bound ump out,
(20:05):
dumb bound up out actra point actor point You still
know anybody there? I know a lot of people there.
I'll give you my resume I could find out. Sure, Yeah,
you could be there. Suddenly justin Frostberg is directing NFL games.
That'd be awesome. I've been directing NFL games for six years. Well,
but now this is TV. Yeah, but they couldn't even
do that where they're going to mention your name. That's
(20:26):
actually me lowering myself at harder to take that job. Okay, well,
here's here's an if you want that job, not the
way to go about it by saying that I'm lowering myself.
You're lucky if I come down with me saying I
don't want that, you are You are lucky. Now, speaking
of jobs, we listen to Tom Brady a few minutes
ago when he talked about his future now that the
(20:46):
tam Bay Buccaneers have been eliminated. Don't worry. I'm gonna
tell you exactly how this offseason is gonna go, and
I'll tell you the best place for him to go.
And this is where he's gonna wind up, he said,
I truly am taking it one day at a time,
and I don't doubt that this has been a season
of incredible stress for him. Right, just just go back
and I what do I always say, Show me a
guy going through a divorce, and I'll show you a
(21:07):
guy having the worst season of his career. Usually it
happens in baseball because of being predicated on the every day.
It's really difficult. But again, I showed you a guy
going through a divorce, and I'll show you a guy
having his worst season as a pro. And he didn't
just go through a divorce, He went through it publicly
with pictures on in in the New York Post and
stories every day. This was a difficult gear for him.
(21:29):
So yeah, does he need to unplug? Yes, he's going
to weigh this offseason. Could it really get better next year? Right,
that's the big question. Can it be better next year?
If I play? Can I have a better season? Or
is this as good as it was gonna be? And
this is where I should go out on? Should I
go out here? Because you know I am forty five
(21:50):
and this is as good as it was gonna be?
What should I do? Should I? Should I go out?
Is it really? Because that's a difficult thing. He didn't
want to hurt his legacy at all, especially when he's
got a big job with Fox and thirty eight million
dollars a year are coming. But in the end he's
going to say, no, I can still do it. I
just need a better team, And that's going to outweigh
(22:11):
him saying this could be as good as it is.
Maybe I'm embarrassing myself. He's going to play next year. Now,
it's not gonna be with Tampa, because Tampa is a
tear down, right, Tampas they won the Super Bowl last year,
they didn't get quite as far this year, didn't quite
as far. Tampa is a tear down, So he's not.
He's not a guy that can come back to Tampa
and think suddenly, we're gonna add all the pieces we need.
(22:32):
He's got to go to a team that's ready made
with the pieces. Where what's where can I go? Where
the where the talent is there. I don't care about
the division, I don't care about who we're playing. Just
where are the pieces there? Where's a good running game,
where's weapons offensively? Where can I go? And more so
than that, who's going to be the team that just says, Wow,
(22:53):
Tom Brady wants to come play with us? And they
got stars in their eyes and and tweeting birds around
their head like, oh, Tom Brady wants to come here.
This is so cool, man, this is great. That team
is the Raiders, and that's where Brady is going to
wind up because they have everything he needs. The offense
is terrific, right, Josh Jacobs coming off a rushing title.
(23:16):
He was the best running back in the NFL this
year and wants to stay. You have Davontae Adams, You'll
have a healthy hunter Renfro who you know was a
pro bowler a year ago but went through a lot
of injuries this year. You have Darren Waller is one
of the best tight ends in the league. He did
have injury problems this year. But you have a team
that is loaded and ready to go. And more so
(23:37):
than that, Mark Davis is the first guy standing in
line with the Hey, this is so cool. Tom Brady
wants to come play for us. Oh and it's only
gonna be twenty million for him to come play for us.
This get haircuts. I don't have to worry about the
ninety million dollars to pay Aaron Rodgers to come play
here in in Las Vegas. Yeah, let's go get Tom Brady.
(23:58):
And that's where Brady's gonn ago because all the other
teams that are out there mentioned from look San Francisco,
come on, man, Purdy and Lance, that's your They're gonna
battle it out next year in camp because both those guys,
they drafted, Lance with the pedigree and Brock Purdy has
shown he's really really good. You keep going with you?
Are you gonna go to Caroline at they're starting over, right, Carol?
(24:19):
All the other teams Tennessee, that's the other team mentioned Tennessee. Um,
Tennessee's not really great. Who do they have Derrick Henry
who's getting older. The Raiders have the weapons, they'll have
the desire because they need a quarterback. Right, we've already
said goodbye to Derek Carr, and you can bring in
someone who's, guess what, familiar with the system. Isn't he
familiar with the system in Vegas because he played in
(24:41):
it for a long time. He's going to the Raiders.
I would put if I had to, I would put
all my money and pushed into the middle. Brady plays
next year. He plays for the Raider. Yeah, you likely
have a lot of departures. Right, He's had a lot
of good byes and thank you's, thank you's. We're more
than more explicit than well, the message behind them of
thanks to the media, thanks to you, thanks for this family,
(25:04):
blank you, blank you, blank you. But the expectation is
you also probably see the the end of Byron Left,
which they're they're a bunch of blue check marker now
yellow check mark people that report out of Tampa that
expect that to happen, and that wouldn't. But that's not
enough to keep reading happen. I'm just gonna thrown it
up like that. It's gonna be a season of change,
(25:26):
as it were. But you forgot Miami, where there's a
lot of weaponry, good running backs that catch the ball
out of the back field and give you the power
run with Jeff Wilson, you've got Wattle and Hill, Gisicky.
There's not Gronk, but every once in a while can
show up and make a big play for you. Offensive
line needs a little bit of work. Defensively, they've come
(25:47):
up in spots I think, I think there's a fit man.
But there's not gonna be Sean Payton there. Payne's interviewing
everywhere else. He's not interviewing. He's not talking to Miami.
That's fine, that's that's gonna that's it's Miami. Would I
would have said if TWA didn't have the season that
he had the first eight to tend games. But now
it's okay, he was really good, hurt the st winning game,
(26:08):
But you don't know what he is, right. We had
the report today and there was a note put out saying, hey,
there's no no reason to believe he can't live and
proceed and have any more uh possibility of a recurrence
of a concussion than the general populace, which is which
is something to bolster. But towards the end, when you
(26:30):
saw him at other parts of the season, did you
see a guy that you loved. As you got to
the second half of the season, when he did play
like it was there enough question to where maybe you
opened the door that hey, we can bring in Brady
for a year or two and push this thing beyond
what you saw. And they had a game. But if
(26:50):
like Skylert Thompson threw a couple of balls, if those
guys catch the ball, he had a much better game
than I thought he was. But I mean in the
first half, like people were pointing out the numbers, like yeah,
your box score watching go back and look at the
balls that were dropped all over the field. There were opportunities,
opportunities to make plays that they failed to. But just Miami,
by the way, it's it's like you and me, like
(27:11):
we we shouldn't be seen as attached at the hip.
We do the show and we're in your ten together.
I appreciate that. But likewise, you know all the speculation
that Brady and Sean Payton are just gonna come skipping down,
you know, some hallway together, arm in arm like laverneon. Surely, yeah,
I mean it's necessarily so, because Sean Payton's talking to everybody.
But but where's he gonna go? Is he gonna go
(27:33):
to Miami? Where he's gonna worry? I have to answer
and work with Mike McDaniel, or will he go with
the Raiders who has his old offensive coordinator there? As
the head couch say, there's been rumors about McDaniel the
last couple of weeks. So if Tom Brady wanted to come,
that's gotta go too much, too much money. They all
they're not gonna let him go. Hey, oh you can
bring in Miami. That's a problem. But you've got enough
(27:58):
people in Vegas that mute whether he's liquid and has
money to fire people and bounce people, and and then
I'll leave that for for other times in Miami. Find
me to spend me whatever you want to do. If
I can get Tom Brady, Yeah, see you Vegas, Vegas, Vegas, Vegas, Baby,
keep putting that out there, Jay, Vegas, Vegas, keeping keep
(28:21):
doing it, Vegas. You're gonna throw a helmet at him
if he can't get to him, or what Vegas? Vegas, Vegas, baby, Vegas?
You really just Vegas? Want to keep saying that Vegas
hit a jackpod baby wants he wants no part of
the Jets defense two times a year. Come on, man,
he's not going to complete a pass on Sauce Gardner,
saucecaras gonna go. I thought this guy was good. I
had to throw it pass my way in two games.
(28:43):
What the hell, man, I'm going all pro again. It's
all good. Sauce is holding right now. Yeah, on the
phone or on the starting to get a little nervous
about something. Nobody said, why you get nervous? Guy? Was
he had a good run. Guys, all Oro is a rookie.
Come on, he's chirping a lot, doesn't matter. This is
(29:04):
what this is what he's all pro as a rookie. Yeah, true,
go ahead, chirp, go ahead and chirp. You're all pros
a rookie. I'm not worried about his motivation. At all
motivation thing. I'm clearly look, I'm clearly ready for the
fact that he's gonna do four years with us and
then want like eight zillion dollars in free agents. That
I think it's gonna happen before you get that. But
(29:27):
if he went to Super Bowl by then it's fine.
What sauce with quarter about Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers or
Lamar Jackson, either one. We'll get one of those two
and then Tom Brady can play. You know you're coming
back some some portion because Zach's still gonna be there.
Robert Sali has been fired. That's the only way that
(29:48):
Zack's that Lamar Jackson Jason is not going to the
Jets to backup Zach. Will listen. They're saying Zach Wilson
gonna be there, and then Zach Wilson actually being there. Okay,
they're saying hell high water, and then there's him actually
being there. Do you think that I made a custom
trading card that had a picture of Zack Wilson said
hell or higher water? How many could sell? His mom
(30:11):
would sign it. Frostburg sent me today of a picture
of Lamar Jackson posed into a Jets uniform, which I'm
gonna use as my avatar on Twitter. That's because he's
still in their contracts and someone that's a minor problem.
We'll fix that in the sec It's it's Monday. I
(30:34):
can't believe we didn't wig up today with the story. Hey,
Lamar Jackson wants out. Lamar wants out. But trust me,
Brady in Vegas works. Will Miami go crazy to get
Tom bur I don't know that they'll go crazy. And
Brady's got to go someplace where I know I can
hit the ground running right away. And that's the comfort
of Vegas and the familiarity with the scheme and the
(30:55):
star players they have there. Yeah, That's where I'm gonna go.
They yes, Miami sounds great. He's close. He has a
home there. Giselle is there and the kids are there.
But he's been in Tampa, right, he's been. He's got
to go someplace else. He wants to keep playing, you
know he does. Vegas just makes the most sense. They
will do the most to go get him. It's the
easiest place for him to jump, right because he may
only have one more year before he's done. And and
(31:16):
and you know, I tried it for a year, and
that's gonna be it. The Raiders will be more than
okay with saying yeah, sure for a year, come here
and do. It'll be great. It'll be fine. Man. Uh
that maybe it be a good looking jersey. I can
tell you that. Yeah, Brady twelve Vegas. Sure, sure, sure
with that Raider decal on the side. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah, Vegas, Baby, Vegas, Vegas. Be sure to catch
(31:38):
live editions of The Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon
weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven pm Pacific, Fox Sports
Radio The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon.
Here's a story a man named Brady. We're gonna have
more on Tom Brady coming up in ten minutes because
if you doubt for a second that Tom Brady is leaving,
I told you Vegas is where he's gotta go. Uh.
(32:01):
Pretty basically just said goodbye to Tampa Bay. Yeah, I
mean basically just said goodbye to Tampa. But you know
what I mean, He's gonna have a lot of days
off like you. Yeah, well I'm off. I'm going to Disneyland. Tom.
I'll mean, I'm not quite you have a day off him.
I'm going to I'm going to Disney. Wow, you know what, Frostburg.
I have not brought up the charges once tonight. Actually,
did you want to talk about that? Actually you're talking
(32:22):
about but then you show me a couple times. What
what did you say? He said? Shive? Okay, right, good,
all right? I got here him. I thought you said
something else that you know you can't say. But you
think you said I'm not going I didn't think. No.
I didn't think you said the word that ended with
a V. I thought you said it with another letter
(32:44):
shaved two minutes. Uh, no, listen, you shaved me shave.
I'll shave your car. Shame No shave shave with a
v uh shame you here from Tom Brady and basically
just saying goodbye to Tampa coming up in about ten minutes.
But the most anticipated moment during tonight's game between the
(33:08):
Cowboys and the tam Bay Buccaneers was, of course, the
trailer for season three of The Mandalorian. Oh yeah, the enough,
my guy in there, this is well, I got two
big things to tell you coming off this number. Back
and watched it some times. I thought I'm one of
those people that goes back and go what is this
part of the trailer telling me number one, I no,
(33:31):
stop kidding. That was a family show. What you would
do it that would send the economy into a recession
of Baby Yoda died. Uh put that out because that's
what's putting it over. Listen. Uh. The Mandalorian is carrying
the Star Wars franchise right now, and the movie sucks.
It is it is the only thing. It's the best
(33:53):
thing that Star Wars has going, and it's the only
surefire thing that people love. I loved obi Wan but
I'm a mutant. Yeah, but to but it's it's that's
a six episode one off, bring it back. It doesn't
know what There's lots of years this guy was a
But we know you're not doing lt gold Mine. Twice
I thought, isn't isn't that a band? No? I was
Velvet Revolver. Velvet gold Mine was based on the life
(34:15):
of David Bowie. What about what about Velvet Underground? What
about Blue Velvet Dennis Hoppy Blue? So yes, it is.
It is holding up the entire franchise. It's the only
thing that people universally love is the Mandalorians. The thing
they've gotten the most right uh, and you know what
(34:35):
we're gonna get because I went through the trail again
like one of those people. What does this mean from
the trailer? Right? What does this cutaway mean? Right here?
I think we're getting Order sixty six episode because there's
one scene where you can see the the the Jedi
with the lightsabers and someone is cutting through a door
with a lightsaber, and you know that's gonna be Anakin,
and they're gonna try to pass off Hayden Christensen is
(34:56):
a he's still twenty years old, just like they did
in you know, An and Obi Wan, which didn't really
work all that well, but you know they're gonna try
to do, especially if they can make him look demonic
like he was at the end. So I guarantee you
we are getting an Order sixty six episode as long
as there's more Carl Weathers. He was very briefly shown
in this trailer. He just short man, come on. And
(35:17):
but how about the nod to the Predator, You know
the really awkward handshake they have when they show Mando
and him with the with the handshake, it's like that handshake.
And we saw salaceous crumb hanging out in a tree
or has he even heard a little bit of his labor.
Just the predator, Just the predator. You know that really
(35:39):
awkward when they shake its hey Dutch, Hey, what's and
they shake and you see them They had that yeah
slap and then gets posed down with Carl Weathers. Right,
they did that handshake with Mando telling you man, order
sixty six ding ding, Oh you lied, and then the
Russian killed him. Whoa oiler alert? What if people have something?
(36:02):
The Russians get into Mandalorian. Now we really got something
coming up next? Uh? Did Tom Brady just wave farewell
to Tampa Bay? You know hear it from Tom? That's next?
The Russians? What are you talking about? Here's a story
of a man named Brady.

up in a couple of minutes. But one thing really
cool from the end of this game that I want
to get to for a second. I don't mean Breton
are finally making an extra point. You saw the Cowboys
in victory formation. Do the the old Tom Landry offensive
(01:07):
line shift where the where the Cowboys lineman get down
and they stand up and they move a little bit
and they go back down. Uh, And I thought that
was pretty cool. I like that the Cowboys do something
like that a nod in their past. It's kind of
Cavante Turpin did the big backflip before, and it's nice
to see that that's gotten recognized because that's something that
you know, Look, millennials have no idea what that is.
(01:27):
Why did the Cowboys line? Why did they stand up? Well,
it's a think the Cowboys used to do. Why it's unclear,
but potentially it was because it would keep the defense
off balance and not trying to recognize the play. But
why did they do it? Well, it's just fun to watch.
They just did it. It's fun. Let him do it.
They didn't have the opportunity to try eleven fedoras onto
(01:48):
the field that they can strap over the top of
their helmets. Yeah, no, that would have been tough. Although
don't you think if you're the Cowboys, you have a
Fedora helmet game at some point? Right? You know in
MLB there were the different casts. Do you have a
special helmet that that's a Fedora? A little disappointed that
we uh were While we're on the subject of logos
and helmets and uniforms that you know, they couldn't have
(02:09):
brought out the Creamsicles for this one, just because Creamsicles
and the Cowboys were that we're the white ones with
the stars on the solder, because because if this really
is it for, you know, not to bury the lead
the the Tom Brady exit game from Tampa, he'll never
wear it. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, which means I'm just
gonna have to go back and look at old pictures
of Steve Young and Vinny Testa Verity. I love watching
(02:32):
Steve Young on ESPN right now, going, Hey, I'm gonna
throw four touchdowns against the Cowboys next week. You watch.
I'm feeling pretty spry right now. I have in my sixties,
but I can still run. I'm gonna point down field,
chuck it up to Jerry rise deep. Oh we we
got this game next week. What you got for a
Scott Van Pelt, I got this game? Turn back time
(02:52):
back to super teams. Right, everybody complains about the NBA
and guys team, go back and look at what the
teams were able to do back then in the NFL.
How do you think he saw the same two or
three teams all the time. Is that's the way it worked.
What and actually if I'm if I'm gonna be if
I'm gonna be accurate. He was probably calling Scott van
Pell Boomer. Alright, we're a big game next week, Boomer,
(03:13):
this is what I had Steve. Obviously, the Ricky Waters
injury ample not quite what you thought he was. How
do you get by running the football? Yeah? I know
you've been waiting to get another burmanism in since we
got robbed out of the fastest three minutes we did.
Where was he tonight? I don't know. There was five
games in Super Wild Wild Card week. It was on
the network, not only on ESPN, he aljoin on ABC.
(03:36):
It was all over another purty good weekend from the
forty Niners teacher. No, no, you didn't. I hate you,
by the way, that was week two. You don't. You
can't use that again in a week six weeks seven
of the pretty experience. But he had to keep going
with that, though, don't you. You have to keep going
with that, don't you. Yeah, but you gotta keep getting
new ones next week because next we will be TJ.
(03:58):
The Cowboys had a pretty good run until they ran
into the Niners. Today, until they ran into Matt in
Candlestick Boy at t J. It's very very apropos as
we close in on February. Uh, the ground dog coming
(04:19):
out of his burrow to show us the Bengals winning
this past weekend, t J. I needed that. I needed
you got that in It's good. But yeah, but I
like seeing the Cowboys shift. That's got They should do
that in the middle of the game. Why save it
to the do in the middle of the game, have
a play, have a crazy Doug Peterson would do that.
Let's do the Cowboys shift for a play. I've always
(04:40):
said they should throw up the one that we used
to use when you were you were kids. You know
the guy has you know it starts limping and then
all of a sudden streaks pass down. You know that
kind of thing. Not really watch me. I watch to
be sprint by you and then catch a lob. Yeah.
So let's take a us into Tom Brady. Here he
(05:01):
is from just a couple of moments ago, possibly for
his last time as a buccaneer, possibly for his last
time in the NFL. What did he have to say
following the Cowboys victory over the Bucks? You you feel cool?
That would have been the first fire he'd shown up today.
Hey Tysher, tell me right now, who was the year
(05:23):
cool too? Who do you mean we're saying you're cool?
He was looking at Jerry Jones for some reason. He
was so I could go get him if I want.
But I just beat the guy so and I'm not
paying him, but I'm paying back. So that's great. But
it's okay because I've mastered Tom Travel. So I'm now
gonna go back in time and sign Brady ten years ago.
And on an alternate world, the cowboys are gonna have
Tom Brady. I mean, I gotta get to that world
(05:45):
and get back. It's very difficult. Scarlett, which is gonna
tell me all about it, Uh, you know the one
that's not from the Full House, Uh, the other one,
and it's gonna get me back there. And also the
guy from the Office who was in it, not Dwight,
but the other guy the guys playing the gym Ryan
character on the television show Now by the Clancy books,
he was in that movie too, well played, and so
(06:07):
was so was Piccard. Now if we could just get
the Piccard had had that had the cameo in the
movie too. It was kind of fun. You know that
he he reminded me of the Star Wars universe. Not
to get too far off the beaten paths here, but
you've already taken but you've already taken us there, so
I goes he was the version of Darth Maul. Oh cool.
(06:29):
Oh no, this guy's gonna be great. Oh no, you
know he had that good scene. He didn't get a second.
There's always the animated TV show where he comes back
as a half spider, so we'll see if that works.
All right. So here's Tom Brady following the Buccaneers defeat
at the hands of the Cowboys. Not the way we
(06:51):
wanted to end it, but we didn't start. I'll gi
him a lot of credit. They played a good game,
made a lot more play than we did and uh
so tough night do anything defensively. That was all surprising
out there. Uh from a scheme standpoint, they played pretty good.
(07:11):
You know, they played good defensively and put a lot
of pressure on us, and we just couldn't make no place.
So kind of tiptical the way we played all year.
Just inefficient the passing game and not very good in
the run games. So it's hard to be good teams
like that. Second for a second, when did it become
the the rule? Because you heard them fighting over who
(07:31):
got to ask the first question? When did it become
the rule? At the first question for the quarterback always
is hey, did they do anything that surprised you? Because
what are they gonna say, well, what's what's a quarterback?
And to say, oh, yeah, man, there's crap that we're
prepared for. We didn't prepare for any of this. What
are you the Chargers? And you know we didn't prepare
for any of this? Are you kidding? We did? We did.
We didn't know anything they were gonna do. Defensively, we
(07:52):
didn't watch a minute the game film all week long.
In fact, we didn't even practice. Don't tell anybody. We
just went to David Busters every day. We were playing
video games like that's become the Hey, what did they
do that surprised you? What would have all of the
talking heads that over the course of the here he's
not his body in he has been preparing and all
(08:12):
of that stuff. It's like, you know, I really wasn't prepared.
You know, it was all on me. Really watched much
game tape this week. I figured it was you know,
we're just playing the Cowboys. I'm just waiting for the
season to be over. Honestly, you saw the season I've had, right,
you know, I got a lot of stuff going on. Man,
I've had a I've got a difficult and now at
the end, now like this new girl that they got
video of me? Now, you know, I don't know, man,
(08:33):
It's right, it's tough. No, No, there's video. I mean
there's pictures. Well, but it's still I mean, you're you're
alleging some going on. What did what did they do
that surprised you? What did you surprise you? So many
times you watched that video, You're creep surprise. I'm just saying, well,
I've seen what do you were you going back to
the press conference where you still talking about the video?
Where did everybody else I read then get video like
(08:55):
you were talking about the video. I read the New
York Post. Didn't you do anything that surprised you? What
do you do? Almost know? You know what I'm don't
stop him, all those clicks, both of you just stop.
You know what I'm talking. Tie Shirt knows what I'm
talking to. Stop with this. It is not it's not
ten o'clock yet. All right. Now, on that note, let's
(09:15):
go back to Tom Brady talking following the game. You
you you trying to go away there, I was. I
was trying to throw it to Chris and the other
guys were blocked in and just trying to throw it
out and then obviously get enough on it. It certainly
didn't help our cause, Tommy and you didn't contribute to
(09:36):
the way tonight. They're just having Ryan Jensen out there
tonight and stopping the ball. Ye. Who can you say
that has come back, that has played tonight that did
for you guys game. Yeah, just super proud of him
and all that he's gone through this year. Yeah, it's
tough injury that he had battled all the way back
and really committed himself the last six eight weeks to
prepare himself to play and did it. So it says
(09:59):
a lot about who he is and certainly a guy
you can depend on and count them. How right, stop? Stop? Stop?
How is that the third question? What was it like
having Ryan Jensen snapped the ball to you? What kind
of question? Off? Listen? Great story, glad he was back
out there, and Tom Brady said wonderful things about but
how is that the third unless unless he says, hey,
(10:20):
you know I did do that solid giving you. Hey,
make sure you asked me about Ryan Jensen. Sure, sure,
Like like, what it's like for him to snap the
ball to you? Yeah? Oh great? What's it like for
him to snap the ball? That's like an early question
in a win and a loss. That's the Hey, before
you go, he saw Jensen fight back again, like something
down the depth chart or when he comes to clean
(10:40):
out his locker. That's not even a question. That's a
question for like week four of the preseason, where all
the storylines are done and it's Hey, Ryan, what does
it mean for him to snap the ball to you?
I mean really? Yeah? Again, that's your third question. His
whole career is in balance, you know what's like from
his generally performance. He had to throw the ball sixty
(11:03):
six times, so hopefully they cashed out the over on
the forty three and a half early enough that you
could reinvest it in some other wagers for the second
half of the game. But all of these different things,
the the sex, the pressures, the miss throws, the timing,
that interception, okay, check that box. But to get to Jensen, Hey, Tom,
(11:26):
Ryan Jensen's brother from Ryan Jensen dot com. Listen, what
was it like for Ryan Gentsen snapped the ball to
you tonight? All right, let's go back back to more, Brady.
You want to do next? It's obviously it's gonna be in.
I'm gonna go home and get a good night's sleep
as good as I can tonight, and uh or you
want to be going to stuff out. I means time.
(11:47):
You know, this has been a lot of focus on,
you know, this game. So yeah, it's just be one
day at a time, truly. For all the struggles this season,
you guys have had the at least possibility of the
playoffs and what could happen there. How hard is the
finality you're losing the season. They're always tough, but you know,
we didn't earn it, so you know, they did. I
(12:09):
think that there's a part of football where I feel
like it's sometimes you get lucky, but most of the time,
you know, the team that earns it, you know, wins.
And they played good all year. They played good tonight,
and they played well as a team. They were very coordinated.
They played well on offensive but well defensively. They missed
some kicks on special teams. But you know, we just
we just couldn't get enough done offensively to put your
(12:29):
pressure on them. Wow. Look, let me get in with
that handmaker on Brett Mahr. And they played well and
they missed some kicks on special. But if he's going
to talk about the team they played, well here you
know it's three phases. He just wanted to identify all three.
And those two did their job. Bret Mare did not
do his job. I have to bring that up. Well,
why do you have to bring that up? Because it
made him feel good in the moment. At least one
(12:51):
of the guys on the other team didn't kick their
ass tonight or kick anything else for that matter. Tom,
would you be all at the game tonight? Yeah? It
was tough, but wow, did you see mom at four
extra points? I've never seen that. I stopped offensive meetings
on the sideline because I wanted to come watch the
kicks as they went on. If he'd continue to expound
on that, that would have been a great Richard gear
and give him the old razzle dazzle, a kind of
(13:13):
moment if forever it was like, wow, can we talk
about their special teams? That's gonna be a problem for
that next week against San Francisco. What else you got? Yeah,
almost like he's doing his audition for what he would
sound like on Fox. Okay, that's a part. I mean
they can't struggle with in a big road test next
week against that juggernaut San Francisco. You know, we played
the Niners a couple of weeks ago. Dot dot dot.
(13:36):
See see what I did there? I turned it into it,
I did. But I will say this if he thinks saying, hey,
they struggled, have been on special teams with four missed kicks?
Is gonna get it done on television? It's not. That's
not going to get it done. Man. Uh, they struggled
a little bit with the missed extra Hey, you've watched
a lot of games. That's more insightful than a lot
(13:56):
of stuff you've been hearing coming from the booth boy
that they really struggle by missing extra points? Is that
a hot take? Is that what they call a hot
take in the business. On Saturday, the Michael's Dongee Booth,
the most excited Dungee Gut at all was on that
fourth down call Wow, good call, Like, yeah, you're with us?
(14:18):
Twitter it out about a Fresca, Mike gets swollen them.
So there's Tom Brady. He says he's truly taking it
one day at a time. So you want to know
what's next for Tom Brady, We will absolutely tell you
how the off season is gonna go for him, if
he's gonna be back playing next season. Are you gonna
say this is it? This is it? That's coming up next?
In the tire rack dot Com studios. This is Fox
(14:38):
Sports Radio. Be sure to catch live editions of The
Jason Smith Show with Mike harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern,
seven pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the I
Heart Radio app. Shane Hey, shame on ESPN for missing
the first extra point Brett Maher made tonight. Guy missed
(15:00):
four in a row and they joined it in progress?
Where was my dramatic building? We're showing another replay of
the Seedee Lamb touchdown. Seriously, they're not used to having
big games. What do you what you're in say? This
is gonna be the highest rated game in the history
of that point. How do you? How do you? How
are you not there to show the storyline that everybody
wants to see. Will Brett Maher missed this extra point.
(15:22):
He misses four in a row, and we don't see
the fifth one that he makes until it's almost all
the way through. What the hell they thought the telecast
had something to do with it, showing him setting up
for said destroy called it off. Guys, this is the way.
This is the worldwide leader. Man, come on, you gotta
you gotta be leader for what for? Not for not
(15:43):
showing Brett more extra point? By the come on man
breakdown of the blown coverage? Show it again? How did
I get it? That is such an epic fail. Man,
I'm telling you that is a big and you're never
allowed in Bristol again after proof. I don't think I'm
allowed there anyway. Do you want to go back to Bristol?
(16:06):
But I mean they have a like, if you really
want to do recreate that experience, you can do it
here in Los Angeles. I could, but you know, I
mean I I can't. But you have a plaque that
hangs there or something. They still talk about me being
the best P A and A P that we're there.
You know. I saw a Sense ofs episode that that
sounded like that where Marge was the best stage manager
ever and that it became a musical thing, and it's like,
(16:31):
all right, you're you're not one of the actors. And
I've seen this play out in live and in living color.
But then later on recognized as a legend by others
who use her notes and system and call her a
legend and ask her to sign it. Maybe you could
find that same experience I might be able to the
first thing I would do is say, hey, let's get
back and show the the extra point about there's one
(16:52):
of your old friends. I mean, they blotched it, so
it really Parallelson's really well ridiculous. Uh, here's it here.
So here's how far that the uh, the mighty have
fallen right for ESPN, right missing the Brett Martin. I'm
gonna tell you a really fun story. So when I
was no, this is really great. So when I was
there in as as a protess back in the early nineties,
(17:16):
was it back when the Last Cowboys wrote? I was
I was no. No, I hadn't even gotten there yet.
I was still a senior at Syracuse. I hadn't gotten
into ESPN. Dude, it doesn't matter, man, I had n
I l and extra years because of COVID, because he
had that what did you say that's actually gumped? What
(17:39):
I said, I think he's an eligible ability. Yeah, you
took the L and then you were eligible. But he
had that N I L deal where he got those
sleeves and hats. Uh. This is a great story. So
Wayne Gretzky is is a goal away from breaking Gordy
House record, which is a really big deal, right, and
we're gonna watch Alex Ovegkin break it at some point.
(18:00):
So the guy who was producing Sports Center, Mike McQuaid,
is a guy's name, and you hear his name now
and again, and Mike McCoy, Mike McQuaid, not Mike McCoy,
Mike McCoy, the guy that couldn't look when they were
when the charges were kicking extra points, right, he couldn't
look near the field goals. So you see his name
once in a while in blogs every places. I was
one of his guys, right way. I worked with him
on the eleven o'clock Sports Center for a long time
(18:22):
and he was doing Sports Center and the Kings were
playing a game and it was on the West Coast,
so it was going on during Sports Center, and every
time Gretzky would get on the ice, they would go
to it live so we can watch Gretzky shift, which
is you know, forty five seconds long, and they say, okay, Gretzky, Okay,
he's off the ice. Let's go back and then you know,
three or four minutes, we'll go by and they go
(18:42):
back to it. So Gretzky's goal eight oh two, he's
on the ice and it looks like he's getting ready
to skate off, and so they're like, okay, let's throw
it back to Bristol for Sports Center, and the producer sees,
because he's a hockey fan, sees Gretzky get waved back
on the ice because he thought the Kings could catch
uh catch Cooks in the line change. So he says, no, no, go,
(19:04):
go go. So Gretzky goes. So they see who's no, no, no,
stay stay, stay stay honestly on it. So they stay on.
They were I mean, it was let's go back to
let's go back to the sports Center and no, no, no, stay,
stay stay, and the play developed. Gretzky comes in and scores,
and he scores on Sports Center for everybody to see.
And the guy became a legend after that because we
nearly dumped out of it, and then he would have
(19:24):
had then he scored like ten seconds later, right, and
now here you have tonight, here's the biggest facts ball
down in the middle. We gotta see Brett Maher and
his extra points. Right, No, no, no, we're gonna we're
gonna join that as a ball is going through the
net for Brett Mark congratulations, bad bad direction man. Failure
in the truck. Someone someone got yelled at, someone got
(19:44):
written up for that. Failure to act. They had one
one job. Well not anymore. Hey, look at your point act,
your point act, your point. I guarantee that's someone sent
in the control room. All right, got that ready, that's
your point white out, whiteout, trying to tell Joe and
Troy to get out of it so they can get
back to the p a t dumb bound ump out,
(20:05):
dumb bound up out actra point actor point You still
know anybody there? I know a lot of people there.
I'll give you my resume I could find out. Sure, Yeah,
you could be there. Suddenly justin Frostberg is directing NFL games.
That'd be awesome. I've been directing NFL games for six years. Well,
but now this is TV. Yeah, but they couldn't even
do that where they're going to mention your name. That's
(20:26):
actually me lowering myself at harder to take that job. Okay, well,
here's here's an if you want that job, not the
way to go about it by saying that I'm lowering myself.
You're lucky if I come down with me saying I
don't want that, you are You are lucky. Now, speaking
of jobs, we listen to Tom Brady a few minutes
ago when he talked about his future now that the
(20:46):
tam Bay Buccaneers have been eliminated. Don't worry. I'm gonna
tell you exactly how this offseason is gonna go, and
I'll tell you the best place for him to go.
And this is where he's gonna wind up, he said,
I truly am taking it one day at a time,
and I don't doubt that this has been a season
of incredible stress for him. Right, just just go back
and I what do I always say, Show me a
guy going through a divorce, and I'll show you a
(21:07):
guy having the worst season of his career. Usually it
happens in baseball because of being predicated on the every day.
It's really difficult. But again, I showed you a guy
going through a divorce, and I'll show you a guy
having his worst season as a pro. And he didn't
just go through a divorce, He went through it publicly
with pictures on in in the New York Post and
stories every day. This was a difficult gear for him.
(21:29):
So yeah, does he need to unplug? Yes, he's going
to weigh this offseason. Could it really get better next year? Right,
that's the big question. Can it be better next year?
If I play? Can I have a better season? Or
is this as good as it was gonna be? And
this is where I should go out on? Should I
go out here? Because you know I am forty five
(21:50):
and this is as good as it was gonna be?
What should I do? Should I? Should I go out?
Is it really? Because that's a difficult thing. He didn't
want to hurt his legacy at all, especially when he's
got a big job with Fox and thirty eight million
dollars a year are coming. But in the end he's
going to say, no, I can still do it. I
just need a better team, And that's going to outweigh
(22:11):
him saying this could be as good as it is.
Maybe I'm embarrassing myself. He's going to play next year. Now,
it's not gonna be with Tampa, because Tampa is a
tear down, right, Tampas they won the Super Bowl last year,
they didn't get quite as far this year, didn't quite
as far. Tampa is a tear down, So he's not.
He's not a guy that can come back to Tampa
and think suddenly, we're gonna add all the pieces we need.
(22:32):
He's got to go to a team that's ready made
with the pieces. Where what's where can I go? Where
the where the talent is there. I don't care about
the division, I don't care about who we're playing. Just
where are the pieces there? Where's a good running game,
where's weapons offensively? Where can I go? And more so
than that, who's going to be the team that just says, Wow,
(22:53):
Tom Brady wants to come play with us? And they
got stars in their eyes and and tweeting birds around
their head like, oh, Tom Brady wants to come here.
This is so cool, man, this is great. That team
is the Raiders, and that's where Brady is going to
wind up because they have everything he needs. The offense
is terrific, right, Josh Jacobs coming off a rushing title.
(23:16):
He was the best running back in the NFL this
year and wants to stay. You have Davontae Adams, You'll
have a healthy hunter Renfro who you know was a
pro bowler a year ago but went through a lot
of injuries this year. You have Darren Waller is one
of the best tight ends in the league. He did
have injury problems this year. But you have a team
that is loaded and ready to go. And more so
(23:37):
than that, Mark Davis is the first guy standing in
line with the Hey, this is so cool. Tom Brady
wants to come play for us. Oh and it's only
gonna be twenty million for him to come play for us.
This get haircuts. I don't have to worry about the
ninety million dollars to pay Aaron Rodgers to come play
here in in Las Vegas. Yeah, let's go get Tom Brady.
(23:58):
And that's where Brady's gonn ago because all the other
teams that are out there mentioned from look San Francisco,
come on, man, Purdy and Lance, that's your They're gonna
battle it out next year in camp because both those guys,
they drafted, Lance with the pedigree and Brock Purdy has
shown he's really really good. You keep going with you?
Are you gonna go to Caroline at they're starting over, right, Carol?
(24:19):
All the other teams Tennessee, that's the other team mentioned Tennessee. Um,
Tennessee's not really great. Who do they have Derrick Henry
who's getting older. The Raiders have the weapons, they'll have
the desire because they need a quarterback. Right, we've already
said goodbye to Derek Carr, and you can bring in
someone who's, guess what, familiar with the system. Isn't he
familiar with the system in Vegas because he played in
(24:41):
it for a long time. He's going to the Raiders.
I would put if I had to, I would put
all my money and pushed into the middle. Brady plays
next year. He plays for the Raider. Yeah, you likely
have a lot of departures. Right, He's had a lot
of good byes and thank you's, thank you's. We're more
than more explicit than well, the message behind them of
thanks to the media, thanks to you, thanks for this family,
(25:04):
blank you, blank you, blank you. But the expectation is
you also probably see the the end of Byron Left,
which they're they're a bunch of blue check marker now
yellow check mark people that report out of Tampa that
expect that to happen, and that wouldn't. But that's not
enough to keep reading happen. I'm just gonna thrown it
up like that. It's gonna be a season of change,
(25:26):
as it were. But you forgot Miami, where there's a
lot of weaponry, good running backs that catch the ball
out of the back field and give you the power
run with Jeff Wilson, you've got Wattle and Hill, Gisicky.
There's not Gronk, but every once in a while can
show up and make a big play for you. Offensive
line needs a little bit of work. Defensively, they've come
(25:47):
up in spots I think, I think there's a fit man.
But there's not gonna be Sean Payton there. Payne's interviewing
everywhere else. He's not interviewing. He's not talking to Miami.
That's fine, that's that's gonna that's it's Miami. Would I
would have said if TWA didn't have the season that
he had the first eight to tend games. But now
it's okay, he was really good, hurt the st winning game,
(26:08):
But you don't know what he is, right. We had
the report today and there was a note put out saying, hey,
there's no no reason to believe he can't live and
proceed and have any more uh possibility of a recurrence
of a concussion than the general populace, which is which
is something to bolster. But towards the end, when you
(26:30):
saw him at other parts of the season, did you
see a guy that you loved. As you got to
the second half of the season, when he did play
like it was there enough question to where maybe you
opened the door that hey, we can bring in Brady
for a year or two and push this thing beyond
what you saw. And they had a game. But if
(26:50):
like Skylert Thompson threw a couple of balls, if those
guys catch the ball, he had a much better game
than I thought he was. But I mean in the
first half, like people were pointing out the numbers, like yeah,
your box score watching go back and look at the
balls that were dropped all over the field. There were opportunities,
opportunities to make plays that they failed to. But just Miami,
by the way, it's it's like you and me, like
(27:11):
we we shouldn't be seen as attached at the hip.
We do the show and we're in your ten together.
I appreciate that. But likewise, you know all the speculation
that Brady and Sean Payton are just gonna come skipping down,
you know, some hallway together, arm in arm like laverneon. Surely, yeah,
I mean it's necessarily so, because Sean Payton's talking to everybody.
But but where's he gonna go? Is he gonna go
(27:33):
to Miami? Where he's gonna worry? I have to answer
and work with Mike McDaniel, or will he go with
the Raiders who has his old offensive coordinator there? As
the head couch say, there's been rumors about McDaniel the
last couple of weeks. So if Tom Brady wanted to come,
that's gotta go too much, too much money. They all
they're not gonna let him go. Hey, oh you can
bring in Miami. That's a problem. But you've got enough
(27:58):
people in Vegas that mute whether he's liquid and has
money to fire people and bounce people, and and then
I'll leave that for for other times in Miami. Find
me to spend me whatever you want to do. If
I can get Tom Brady, Yeah, see you Vegas, Vegas, Vegas, Vegas, Baby,
keep putting that out there, Jay, Vegas, Vegas, keeping keep
(28:21):
doing it, Vegas. You're gonna throw a helmet at him
if he can't get to him, or what Vegas? Vegas, Vegas, baby, Vegas?
You really just Vegas? Want to keep saying that Vegas
hit a jackpod baby wants he wants no part of
the Jets defense two times a year. Come on, man,
he's not going to complete a pass on Sauce Gardner,
saucecaras gonna go. I thought this guy was good. I
had to throw it pass my way in two games.
(28:43):
What the hell, man, I'm going all pro again. It's
all good. Sauce is holding right now. Yeah, on the
phone or on the starting to get a little nervous
about something. Nobody said, why you get nervous? Guy? Was
he had a good run. Guys, all Oro is a rookie.
Come on, he's chirping a lot, doesn't matter. This is
(29:04):
what this is what he's all pro as a rookie. Yeah, true,
go ahead, chirp, go ahead and chirp. You're all pros
a rookie. I'm not worried about his motivation. At all
motivation thing. I'm clearly look, I'm clearly ready for the
fact that he's gonna do four years with us and
then want like eight zillion dollars in free agents. That
I think it's gonna happen before you get that. But
(29:27):
if he went to Super Bowl by then it's fine.
What sauce with quarter about Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers or
Lamar Jackson, either one. We'll get one of those two
and then Tom Brady can play. You know you're coming
back some some portion because Zach's still gonna be there.
Robert Sali has been fired. That's the only way that
(29:48):
Zack's that Lamar Jackson Jason is not going to the
Jets to backup Zach. Will listen. They're saying Zach Wilson
gonna be there, and then Zach Wilson actually being there. Okay,
they're saying hell high water, and then there's him actually
being there. Do you think that I made a custom
trading card that had a picture of Zack Wilson said
hell or higher water? How many could sell? His mom
(30:11):
would sign it. Frostburg sent me today of a picture
of Lamar Jackson posed into a Jets uniform, which I'm
gonna use as my avatar on Twitter. That's because he's
still in their contracts and someone that's a minor problem.
We'll fix that in the sec It's it's Monday. I
(30:34):
can't believe we didn't wig up today with the story. Hey,
Lamar Jackson wants out. Lamar wants out. But trust me,
Brady in Vegas works. Will Miami go crazy to get
Tom bur I don't know that they'll go crazy. And
Brady's got to go someplace where I know I can
hit the ground running right away. And that's the comfort
of Vegas and the familiarity with the scheme and the
(30:55):
star players they have there. Yeah, That's where I'm gonna go.
They yes, Miami sounds great. He's close. He has a
home there. Giselle is there and the kids are there.
But he's been in Tampa, right, he's been. He's got
to go someplace else. He wants to keep playing, you
know he does. Vegas just makes the most sense. They
will do the most to go get him. It's the
easiest place for him to jump, right because he may
only have one more year before he's done. And and
(31:16):
and you know, I tried it for a year, and
that's gonna be it. The Raiders will be more than
okay with saying yeah, sure for a year, come here
and do. It'll be great. It'll be fine. Man. Uh
that maybe it be a good looking jersey. I can
tell you that. Yeah, Brady twelve Vegas. Sure, sure, sure
with that Raider decal on the side. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah, Vegas, Baby, Vegas, Vegas. Be sure to catch
(31:38):
live editions of The Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon
weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven pm Pacific, Fox Sports
Radio The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon.
Here's a story a man named Brady. We're gonna have
more on Tom Brady coming up in ten minutes because
if you doubt for a second that Tom Brady is leaving,
I told you Vegas is where he's gotta go. Uh.
(32:01):
Pretty basically just said goodbye to Tampa Bay. Yeah, I
mean basically just said goodbye to Tampa. But you know
what I mean, He's gonna have a lot of days
off like you. Yeah, well I'm off. I'm going to Disneyland. Tom.
I'll mean, I'm not quite you have a day off him.
I'm going to I'm going to Disney. Wow, you know what, Frostburg.
I have not brought up the charges once tonight. Actually,
did you want to talk about that? Actually you're talking
(32:22):
about but then you show me a couple times. What
what did you say? He said? Shive? Okay, right, good,
all right? I got here him. I thought you said
something else that you know you can't say. But you
think you said I'm not going I didn't think. No.
I didn't think you said the word that ended with
a V. I thought you said it with another letter
(32:44):
shaved two minutes. Uh, no, listen, you shaved me shave.
I'll shave your car. Shame No shave shave with a
v uh shame you here from Tom Brady and basically
just saying goodbye to Tampa coming up in about ten minutes.
But the most anticipated moment during tonight's game between the
(33:08):
Cowboys and the tam Bay Buccaneers was, of course, the
trailer for season three of The Mandalorian. Oh yeah, the enough,
my guy in there, this is well, I got two
big things to tell you coming off this number. Back
and watched it some times. I thought I'm one of
those people that goes back and go what is this
part of the trailer telling me number one, I no,
(33:31):
stop kidding. That was a family show. What you would
do it that would send the economy into a recession
of Baby Yoda died. Uh put that out because that's
what's putting it over. Listen. Uh. The Mandalorian is carrying
the Star Wars franchise right now, and the movie sucks.
It is it is the only thing. It's the best
(33:53):
thing that Star Wars has going, and it's the only
surefire thing that people love. I loved obi Wan but
I'm a mutant. Yeah, but to but it's it's that's
a six episode one off, bring it back. It doesn't
know what There's lots of years this guy was a
But we know you're not doing lt gold Mine. Twice
I thought, isn't isn't that a band? No? I was
Velvet Revolver. Velvet gold Mine was based on the life
(34:15):
of David Bowie. What about what about Velvet Underground? What
about Blue Velvet Dennis Hoppy Blue? So yes, it is.
It is holding up the entire franchise. It's the only
thing that people universally love is the Mandalorians. The thing
they've gotten the most right uh, and you know what
(34:35):
we're gonna get because I went through the trail again
like one of those people. What does this mean from
the trailer? Right? What does this cutaway mean? Right here?
I think we're getting Order sixty six episode because there's
one scene where you can see the the the Jedi
with the lightsabers and someone is cutting through a door
with a lightsaber, and you know that's gonna be Anakin,
and they're gonna try to pass off Hayden Christensen is
(34:56):
a he's still twenty years old, just like they did
in you know, An and Obi Wan, which didn't really
work all that well, but you know they're gonna try
to do, especially if they can make him look demonic
like he was at the end. So I guarantee you
we are getting an Order sixty six episode as long
as there's more Carl Weathers. He was very briefly shown
in this trailer. He just short man, come on. And
(35:17):
but how about the nod to the Predator, You know
the really awkward handshake they have when they show Mando
and him with the with the handshake, it's like that handshake.
And we saw salaceous crumb hanging out in a tree
or has he even heard a little bit of his labor.
Just the predator, Just the predator. You know that really
(35:39):
awkward when they shake its hey Dutch, Hey, what's and
they shake and you see them They had that yeah
slap and then gets posed down with Carl Weathers. Right,
they did that handshake with Mando telling you man, order
sixty six ding ding, Oh you lied, and then the
Russian killed him. Whoa oiler alert? What if people have something?
(36:02):
The Russians get into Mandalorian. Now we really got something
coming up next? Uh? Did Tom Brady just wave farewell
to Tampa Bay? You know hear it from Tom? That's next?
The Russians? What are you talking about? Here's a story
of a man named Brady.
