(00:45):
over ten thousand recommended installers tirect dot com the way
tire buying should be well. On the very rainy Thursday night,
here from the tire Act dot Com Studios. We have
so much football to get to. We got offensive coordinate.
I don't think there's any outside of the teams that
let that are still in the playoffs. Mike Carmen, none
(01:07):
of the other teams, none of the other UH twenty
four teams in the player that are not in the
playoffs have an active offensive or defensive coordinator. They've all
been fired at this point, nobody there's twenty four openings
on each side of the ball. It is kind of
interesting because it always goes back to the same principle
you and I have been talking about for as long
as we've been doing this show. Something I have banged
(01:28):
the drum on uh as hard as I possibly can.
Very rarely do we call for coaches to get fired, right,
head coaches, coordinators all the way on down the line,
And when we do, there's usually a preponderance of evidence
to say you can't get this done, and sometimes the
team disagrees with you. Brandon Staley, but you have the
(01:49):
coordinator position, which I think is the same mechanism, because
now you have to go into the marketplace and say,
who are we getting that's better than this guy. We've
made the decision to fire him. Oh yes, so of
nine other teams, Well, so what are we gonna blay
musical chairs? This is this is one of those things.
This is one of those things that you know, we
(02:10):
run into his parents all the time. Okay, I'd love
to be able to solve this issue forever. But sometimes
you just have to solve issues for right now and
then worry about the big future in a few days.
It happens that way. So what a head coach is? Boy? Uh,
we really underachieved this year. I want to keep this job.
So I'm gonna throw my O C under the bus,
or I'm gonna throw my DC under the bus and
(02:31):
say it was your fault. Hey, g M, Hey, Mr Owner,
this wasn't me our defense. I think he needs to go.
I will, you know, and I will let him go
if you needed to let him go. Okay, I'll let
him go. I'll love this save my job if I
can somehow explain how the communication between he and the
players failed and it wasn't my fault. I mean I
delegated like I was supposed to. You said, put that
(02:53):
guy in charge of the offense, and look what he
gave you. I mean, look, he only gave you eighteen
points a game. I mean, what do you want from me?
All his I'm running the whole operation here. Yeah, but
but I'm I wasn't really that involved. I kind of
trusted him to do his own thing. I was with
the side of the ball. That was good. So I
went on you know, that's where I cont defensive background,
(03:14):
and we we came on strong the second half. Yeah,
let's alone. Yeah, I I really you know, the second half,
and you saw the approval. I was really more involved
with the team. That's I mean really that that's on me.
The other side me, I don't even know if I
talked to our offensive coordinator the last six weeks this season,
I don't even know. Man, Here, here's the print out
of how I used my key card and which rooms
I was in. You could see that I showed up
(03:36):
in more defensive meetings and look at what happened on
that side of the ball. Oh man, Today, Byron left,
which fired as o C by the Bucks, Greg Roman
resigning as offensive coordinator of the Ravens when it was
clear of the raven said hey we gotta go another directions.
Uh the utual firing and Donnitel is their defensive coordinator.
(03:57):
The Dolphins fired defensive coudator John Lawyer after they get
knocked out of the plans. Every listen, hey, all of
you guys, you're all gonna fall on the sword for
me right this? You know what reminds me of remember
the movie Dave. When Kevin Klein was a look alike
for the president, and and and and when he's really
the president, he's in the room with all his chief
of staff and everybody, and he sits there he says, listen,
(04:18):
I don't want to look like a jerk. I want
you guys to look like jerk's to the public. Right.
That's that's kind of how I feel. I'm not gonna
get fired for this. I want you guys to get
fired for this. So that's what we're gonna do. So
today was like Black Thursday, like with all for all
the c D. I mean you, we had like six
openings today. Hey, I got a I got a job.
I got a job. I got a job. I got
a job. It happened today. Yeah, an amazing week overall.
(04:42):
Glad to have you back. By the way, we missed
you the last couple of nights. All sorts of storylines,
nick losses and whatever else that we could have discussed
that we just kind of made mention. Yeah, but I
was at Disneyland, so I won. I was so excited. No,
I was really happy for you. I mean, you didn't
complain about the food. As we were and versing about it.
It just means you didn't work hard enough, because there's
(05:03):
opportunities there for for great now. But the rest of
the time was okay because you know, Steve Cohen bought
Disneyland and it actually was a Mets fans day there,
so actually it was great everything else there. But yeah,
I know, the food could have been a little bit better. Well,
you know what we wanted to do. We were going
to call security and say, can you find the guy
in the Syracuse or Met sweatshirt? We're not sure which,
(05:24):
And it was. It was a Syracuse sweatshirt and a
Mets at. It was Met sweatshirt and a SYRICU. Let
me tell you, let me, let me, let me honest
with you. It was a Syracuse sweatshirt. It was orange.
You couldn't miss me, alright, couldn't miss me. It was
a Syracus sweatshirt and a Syracuse at. I don't mix Syracuse.
If you go with one one one team, you can't
(05:45):
go with a different team. You gotta go. You gotta
look like a coach. You gotta look like, oh yeah,
I'm working for How many kids online called you kool aid?
Oh yeah, yeah, Like I said, orange is a tough
color to pull off. I wish my team's colors were
in orange, but they are, so it's not a lot
I could do. And you go in how many we
(06:07):
were trying to figure out? How many people in line
just said, this guy doesn't shut up, Let's move to
another rise. The hell's he keep talking about the Mets
and free agency. For I like seeing because everybody, like
when they go to Disneyland, they all like to wear
I'm gonna wear my best you know, uh sweatshirt or
my best team hat or something like that. It's always
like just seeing somebody in line and go like, like
(06:28):
we were in a forty Niners kept going, you can
beat the Cowboys this week. Oh yeah, I think so.
I said, Yeah, that stinks. Brock Purty got hurt. What
I know. I'm just kidding, man, I'm just kidding. Rock parties. Fine,
I'm just kidding. Oh, don't do that to me, man,
don't I kind of like doing that. That's kind of fun. No, Well,
you know, you gotta commiserate with folks and then slightly
slip in what you do for a living and evangelized.
(06:50):
We're trying to expand. I have McDonald's right now. Yeah, yeah,
I don't do it for well wait wait McDonald wait, Frostberg,
tell me the truth. Tell me you don't do that.
If you can make this happen, could you get me
to get paid to eat McDonald's every day? Can I
get Can I make money on eating McDonald's every day?
(07:11):
There's a reason they have billion served, right, But I
mean I paid them to eat, but I'm a walking
billboard for them. Hey, this guy likes McDonald's. Yeah, how
we haven't figured out how to to latch into that
to where you know, we're we're doing some sort of
tagline bit with with them for the amount you consume.
I mean maybe it's just because you do it for free,
(07:33):
by by for free. I pay for the fluid. No, no, no, no, no,
I'm saying, instead of you know, helping the line my pocket,
that you're doing it, you know you're paying for it,
and I got no chance of getting anything if you're
gonna keep, you know, talking about how great it is
without them putting dollars in your pocket. Hey, listen, don't
you know who I am? I'm Jason Smith. Oh you're
(07:54):
that guy. Yeah, listen, here's what I want, all right.
I want a free Big Mac, and I want to
free Big Max. In fact, I want both of those.
I want to diet coke. Wait, diet coke, Yeah, shut up, Okay,
it's less sugar. And I want three chocolate chip cookies
and I want that every half. Hey, give me three chocolate.
I once said a guy laugh at me at a
restaurant and I and I said, and I gave him
a really low tip because he said, what would you
(08:15):
like it? I said, all right, I'll have a steak. Okay,
what do you want medium rare? What loaded baked potato?
All right? Uh? And what do you want to drink?
I said, diet coke? And he went diet And I'm like,
and everybody the table laughed. I was like, you just
lost your tip, Yeah, you just lost your That guy
probably couldn't even get home. Yeah, whatever is that you
want to laugh? I said, yes. I said, it's better
(08:36):
than if you always threatened to keep people's cars. I did, no, No,
I threatened to key a couple of people's cars last night.
It was fun. I kind of like doing that. Now
nobody does last night too. Yeah, well we did that.
We did the whole couple of day things. So it
was really cool. Don't have cars though? Yeah, no, no, no,
I don't know what you threaten key his car? How about, hey, Pluto,
how about a key that wagon you ride in all
(08:57):
the Yeah, you know I told to Prints I was
gonna do the I was gonna do the multi day
thing without him. And there they were like, you're a jerk. Wow. Yeah,
I would never threaten to go to Disneyland without my kids.
Once in a while, you know you you want some
some some everybody needs it a little time away. Listen,
dad needs is a lone time so you go in
(09:19):
to a bar and and and watch a game. No,
I'm going to Disneyland so I can stand inlide all day. Yeah,
happy ride while I eat snacks and taunt the kids
around because their parents won't buy it for him to
get right all the time. I'm keying that create Pluto,
that creek boy. But hey, you know what, maybe after
(09:42):
this I get an interviewed to be an o C
or a d C with one of the NFL teams,
and maybe maybe you guys love somebody else to kick
around here, And I got one of those jobs. And
suddenly I'm there with a with a hat and a pen,
behind my ear and maybe I'm growing a beard and
I'm wearing a I'm wearing some kind of headset and
I'm yelling into it for players to do stuff, and
you know, wearing nice school team gear and I'm an
o C. Hey, Jason, if you were my OC, I
(10:04):
tell you to go blank yourself and suck that. That
has been done before, there had precedency, but it but
it comes down the you know, back to the task
at hand. With the the number of openings here, he
always got to have a fall guy when things go awry.
And as much as we we love the silly season
(10:28):
as it's become both for player trades, movement and all
that fun stuff, rumor conjecture, speculation will do some of
it tonight. We we've now got the microwave society when
it comes to coaching. You know, we used to have
the you get a long run up all right, Now
you're not getting it done, beat it. But how many
coaches are now one or two years Hell, Kingsbury got
(10:49):
the extension and then got run out of town immediately.
Hey we're gonna pay you and then you're gone. Wait
this means I mean I've been in Thailand. Yeah, but
pirates booty. Did you see that their booty? Did you
see that story yesterday? That the one person I don't
know who it was, And it's impossible to buy a
one way ticket to Thailand and Cliff Kingsbury's lying about
where he is, or that he bought a one way
ticket to Thailand because you can't do that apparently, Well
(11:13):
maybe it's open ended, so we only had one date
on it. I feel like that was like the the
Seinfeld storeland you can't buy a house in Tuscany? What
do I mean? You can't buy a house in Tuscany? Hey,
I found one. You can't buy it? One way ticket
to Thailand. I'm gonna put you on a that's gonna
be the big line. Now someone gets fired his head
coach is gonna be that guy's gonna get a one
way ticket to Thailand. Well, yeah, get it no longer
(11:33):
your fire left on the tar back. Yeah, one way
ticket to Thailand. Is you want to coach getting fired?
Is that guy's on a one way ticket to Thailand?
After the season spoiler spoiler on it? Yeah, lots lots
of coordinator openings, so you can't wait to see the rumors.
Rumor mill that starts flying here. This guy has never
coached above uh, you know a little bit of special
(11:55):
teams coordination. Just just promote him. We had to fill
the spot. We have all kinds of NFL talk about rumor, conjecture, speculation.
What is next now for Lamar Jackson? What is next
now for Tom Brady? After their teams and maybe former
teams made those big moves. Yes, what Jets coach was
told to go blank himself? But one of the star
(12:16):
players earlier this year? What NFL team was excited when
their quarterback got replaced midseason? Here's a hit it was
the Jets. 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. Here's my theory about why ant
(12:36):
Man is really Spider Man? Okay, then I click on that,
and then I get to a theory about how why
the what is really Captain America? You know? And Okay,
let me go to that, you know, And then I'm like,
why did I even get on this thing? Why do
I have seven only fans open? Hey? If I could
find a way to make money doing hot takes on
only fans. I'd do it. I'd do it, man, But
(12:56):
I don't know. Well, I mean we could, we could.
There's a couple of other sites we could get on board.
I see the competition, though, it's really difficult, Like there's
stuff on only fans that I go. I can't comp
You can't jiggle your a. It's tough, man, I can't.
You don't think you don't think that's got some jiggle
in it? Yeah, come on, I saw him. I won't
found that big magma. You saw the end of Dodgeball,
and you want something for the ride home. Here you go.
(13:17):
My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, and
they're like, it's better than yours. I mean, I don't know,
with a hot with a couple of hot takes in there,
did I say hot takes to hot takes? No, she's
she's on the brain now. But uh, certainly you could
add some hotcakes. Look, it's all about percentages, right. Yeah,
(13:39):
it's a very large pie and you're looking to find
that small sliver because that still represents millions of dollars.
Just remember that. But here's the story. I didn't know
I needed was. I didn't because I feel like I'm
back in the in the summer, when because the way
(13:59):
the way the NFL is now when we get to
the summer, and with the preseason being something that has
lost a little bit of luster because the big players
don't play anymore, right, starters don't play anymore. You don't
see a lot of big storylines coming out of games.
You rely on the drama from practice and what's going
on with your team, and everybody is into their own team. Hey,
(14:20):
how did so and so look in seven on seven's
bad day for Zack Wilson and the Jets offense, which
is like every day in the summer, you know, to
red zone interceptions, there was a nice grab by Garrett Wilson,
and you know in the drills in the afternoon, and
everybody is really into reading about their own team, and
so you get an updated. Hey, what's this position battle going? Well,
the battle for the nickelback is is Why did I say?
(14:41):
Then say why did I say that? Uh? Luckily Tisher's
not paying attention. He's looking at me. What did I
just miss? Wrong shot? That was the coin flip of draws.
Go back to play in Halo. I'm not tight shirt.
(15:02):
Just looked up at me from his from his from
his uh, his laptop, was like, uh, what I miss
is what I press? I pressed the wrong but I
did not. No, no, no, no, on on on on
on on on on, man, no, that's not what I said.
You say hot cakes, hot cakes, and hey, man, there
(15:23):
there's probably someone willing to watch you eat and pay
money for it. There's a lot of really strange things
out there. Tell him, I'm digging that. If this I
just want to out there, I'm just gonna eat. Here's
the thing, though, is that I'd have to learn how
to eat slower because I pretty fast. But you also
you know, well, I mean some folks might want it
(15:43):
that way. It's a quick diversion. And he moved back.
But since you always had extra sauce, cheese and other
things to it, it gets messy, like there's lots of
stuff here. I'm gonna watch that video with Jason Smith
eating a big mech. How long is it? Thirty nine seconds? No,
I mean how long is the whole video? No, thirty
nine seconds him first bite to the end. It's thirty nights. Okay, yeah,
that's somebody, say nickel back, maybe he went back and
(16:12):
listened to the audio home you missed the first time,
and then you turned your mic off and went justin,
what did happened? For some reason, I didn't say it,
justin pays attention to say even said, oh, I almost
said it right there. I almost said it. I really
was close to saying it, but I didn't. I didn't
(16:32):
say it, didn't say it, didn't say it. Uh So
kind of like when you go back to to to
the summer and you read about those stories. Now, great, there,
Now I got everybody's mind in the summer, summer's green,
feeling the heat and not my team can win this year?
Was I didn't know I needed the play by play
drama during the day today of how Brett Maher was
doing in practice for the Cowboys, how his field goal
(16:56):
and extra point kicking was going, and I got a
great day. Hey, Bret Marr is six for six uh
field goals so far today. He looks really confident. And
I didn't know that I was that I needed this
story because you think about it, I don't know that
there is a more exciting storyline that every NFL fan
(17:18):
would be into this weekend more than how is Brett
Maher going to do kicking field goals and extra points? Right?
Because you take NFL, you take all the NFL fans
from across the league, right, we have you have all
the teams getting ready in the drama, you know, Burrow
and Alan. But if you're asking fans of just football fans,
not fans of teams playing in the game, Hey, what's
the most exciting storyline this week? And they're gonna say, dude,
(17:40):
the late game on Sunday, Cowboys forty nine, is it
gonna come down to a field goal? Is it gonna
come down to an extra point? That's like the number
one storyline. How is Brett Maher going to do kicking
field goals and extra points this week? And I I
didn't know that I needed that story so bad, but
I do. Well when you think about it, and you've
got to spread that's hovering in that what three and
a half a four and a half point range with
(18:01):
the forty niner's favorite at home even at Jerry Jones
on his weekly radio interview, and I call it like
a fireside chat quote. It would be a really, really
be a big setback to go into the rest of
this tournament. The rest of this playoff with shakiness at kicker.
So there was an awful lot of looks I'm sure
(18:23):
over at this guy, you know, as well, to make sure, Hey,
how's he looking over there? Is he ready to supplant him?
If he falters, do we get to tappy elbow and
move on? Because that's one of the big, big decisions
you're gonna have to make going into the weekend. Do
we trust him? Maybe the the audio from NFL Films
and the video leaked of Dak throwing his helmet down.
(18:43):
We all knew what he said, but now we heard it.
Go for blanket tone. I know, I know right, it's
it's insane. Let's go for to go for you got
sheety lamb sitting next to we got you? Man? How
many times you bail us out? What are we doing?
Let's let's go for two? Why are we kidding? Didn't
the kick? I get your points? But just just think
about this weekend. Every time he comes onto the field
(19:06):
for an extra point, it's oh my god, oh my god,
is he gonna make it? It's a game that looks
to be in range right where one of those kicks.
Not just if we're talking final minutes, you know, and hey,
games on the line there, but just in the flow
of a game, what that means to the changing of
offensive and defensive strategy and every every time out clock management.
(19:30):
Of course I say that and I chuckle because I'm
thinking about Mike McCarthy, But you get my point. M uh,
this is going to be like, it's the game of
the weekend. We have a lot of great game this weekend,
but forty nine is Cowboys. Sunday games are everything. Yeah,
I mean, look, I celebrate them all. It's divisional. The
cheapest ticket is like five bucks for this game, you know,
(19:51):
I mean, it's it's that big a deal. But the
the Brett Maher storyline, it's just it's it's one of
those organic events that just happens and it grabs all
your attention for a very short period of time. It's,
oh my god, we gotta We're watching it on Monday right,
looking at each other going what the hell is going on? Right?
And Neddie starts adjusting how he's setting up, and then
(20:13):
the final one we didn't even get to see it.
What he finally made one. I still feel cheated, Mike.
I thought it was Nate Kating good for you. It's
not too soon. Now we actually have audio of Brett
Maher from practice that here we have that audio Frostberg. Okay,
so here's Brett McGain six for six a practice today
(20:34):
kicking field which part of me thinks, like that about right,
I'm like, that's all he kicked that lee. Yeah, then
he was over his next twelve, but he was six
for his first six. He might have audio one of
those miss al right, here we are. Here's audio Brett Maher, uh,
field goal, field goal, extra point? What it was? It was?
It both? Okay, field goal from Bret Maher earlier today
(20:57):
Cowboys practice goals seven Dolphins trailing the forty niners by one.
This will win the game for Miami. There's the snack
for Reoles, the kick and it's why no, Wow, I
(21:25):
can't believe they actually had that big play by play
calling Cowboy and the people calling his field calls in
practice today like it was a game. We're gonna make
it like a game situation the Bam Cowboys Radio Network. Look, man,
you gotta simulate the whole thing. You gotta give it
the gravitas. You know, you're not just funneling in some
audio They actually hired sixty thousands, you know, people to
(21:49):
stand in. They told him what to wear, the whole
whole deal. Here we're looking for extras. Twitter and out
about a fresca. Mike gets swollen down the Jason Smith
Show with my best friend my car even brought Hans
Zimmer in with the score no question. Hey can I
get some good tense field goal kicking music? Alright? Great?
(22:10):
I wonder if that would help a kicker or not
help if they played tense field goal kicking music. I
wonder if that went, that would be better or worse
than I like this? Dn't du dun dun un. Well,
you really just made Hans zimmern Zimmer. Huh. He was
playing Mario Brothers. But that but that's a song though,
(22:31):
dun Dunn, that's his that's his biggest song. Really due
du dun dun. Always just go back to be done
with it. You know, we went, we went dun dun
dun dun dun dun dun dunt dun. And well, come on, coolery,
it's it's over for Zimmer and the Vikings here tonight
(22:54):
on the show. I really was waiting for running up
that hill start. That's top ten. How's this in the
background is your kicker lines, Dad, d J. We're gonna
give you an update on Mars extra points in real
time today from practice Twitter and out about a Fresco
(23:15):
Mike and swollen do I mean? I look, if it
would come down to a Brett Maher kicked, that would
be outstanding. But but I'm gonna stick by what I said.
It'll well, we'll get into this game in big detail
tomorrow night and we pick it. But uh, dude, this
is gonna be the forty Niners. It's it's it's one
thing to to beat a team that is not very
good and barely is squeaking in and look like world beaters. Okay, yeah,
(23:39):
you want on the road. That's great, but Tampa stinks.
Tampa wasn't very good and suddenly all the cowboys have
sold all the problems. Yeah, good luck on Sunday in
that big uptick in competition. Good luck give me the
Niners all day on Sunday. Well, you already picked the game,
so there it is. Be sure to catch live editions
of The Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at

James and I'm not trying to be a company guy.
Please Guiant Eagles fording onto Cowboys? Are you serious? Now?
Tell me the truth? Now? Did did Jerry Jones approach
you to kick for the Cowboys on Sunday? He did,
(24:44):
but I couldn't pass the Drug's an honest man, Sorry, Jerry.
I'd love to do it, but I've never had passed.
Nor the personalities, yes they give you, nor the background
check did give you? Than that I'm a model of stability.
(25:09):
I'm getting a T shirt made that says I'm a
model with stupid. That's it. I tell you that, Jay,
you said it like the all the weekends games are great,
but that Cowboys forty Niners game is is just gonna
be something absolutely extra special. You know. You know I

Mike McCarthy, dan Quin, a couple of players like game day,
(25:32):
and it just felt like they were there for a
business trip and for a fight. It felt different. And
I literally on the phone up. I turned to people
I was with. I said, oh, man, Dallas about to tick.
You know one of these guys, I said, Way said, manage.
You can just sometimes you can tell when someone's locked in.
I can tell with fighters, but I could tell it.
(25:53):
You know, everyone excell with fighters a lot better obviously
than football players, but you could tell it. Team was
just locked in like a business trip, and man, they were.
I wasn't surprised by the score at all. I was
surprised by the kicker. I was suprised on the score. Yeah.
I think we're all still trying to scratch our head
and figure that one out. Jay, But watching that game
(26:15):
go down and now all the fallout, but you know,
front and Center and all of this and the weird,
wacky offseason that we're we're getting into for the rest
of the squads is Lamar Jackson situation him on social media,
where he is at with his knee recovery. Whaty well,
it was just the stuff about being appreciated and all
(26:35):
just going into last weekend, uh that he had had
had put up you know, kind of the uh you
know now for deep thoughts with Lamar Jackson. I didn't
see it. Yeah, So it was just one where it's
you know, he had the back and forth about his
knee and where he was at physically, and then he
put up a note about being appreciated where you are
(26:59):
and such paraphrasing, of course, but you know hard bought today. Hey,
we want him to to be our guy. How does
this shake out? Bashadi gonna write him the big check?
I don't. I don't think. Look, he's represent himself, so
it's hard. He still wants a fully guarantee deal. I
don't see them doing that. I see them franchise tagging
them um. And I wouldn't be surprised if they try
(27:22):
to trade him, even though they saying what they say
right now. But I just would be surprised because they're
unless let's all of a sudden they decided to budging
cave and get him Bron Watson, Joe. I don't know
where they're gonna find come ground. You know, the one
thing Jay did open open this up for a little
bit here is that you know, Lamar has not had
an agent, and I always look at everybody that has
(27:44):
an agent knows it. Look, it stops it stops it
from getting personal. And I don't know how it doesn't
get personal point when you don't have someone doing that
for you, exactly, it's so hard. And listen, also, in
order to be great, you gotta be crazy, Okay, and me,
the mental health guy is saying this right, in order
to great, you have to be crazy. You have some
(28:05):
crazy to be on this level to work as hard
as Lamar Jackson or anything you're gonna do, to work
this much, to put so much. You're difference in the
rest of the world. And I'm saying crazy in a
good way. You're different the rest of the world. But
the mere crazy you come back and bite you when yeah,
we're trying to negotiate for ourselves and man, we're hearing
(28:25):
this stuff about why we're not worth it, why, but
you're you're trying to tell you want the good crazy
from this player on the field. But then you gotta
go tell the same guy why you're not worth with
Deshaan Watson got and man, god, just they're not able
to handle that. That's what agents are for. Agents kind
(28:46):
of break it and agents do that dirty work when
you're going back and forth on things and they have
to tell you why you're not worth it and you're
trying to fight why you are worth it is every
time you heard something like like sasative about you, But
it's gonna drive you crazy, right, it would be would
(29:08):
any of us. That's why I have an agent because
otherwise drive it's crazy and it's just it's just not business.
Fires for a deal on just not the most in disaspiance. Yeah,
I gotta get on that because maybe it would take
some of the stuff out of my head. Jay, So
if you have any advice on getting one of those,
uh from my own world, it'll help. At Jay Glazer
(29:30):
where you find him on Twitter, Fox, NFL Sunday. He
is a broadcast Hall of Famer, founder of m v P,
then Unbreakable Performance and of course Unbreakable the podcast, which
we'll get to in a minute. But we saw the
Tampa Bay Bucceteers clean house today left which you're talking
about you talking about unbreakable performance and talking about the Buccaneers.
(29:52):
We just gotta deal with one Thomas Brady where um
Brakable is now the home of PB twelve in Los Angeles.
Anybody out there and wants physical therapy, want rehab, I'm
breakable of the spot to go and let me tell
you this about the TV Twelt method. I'm gonna take
this moment here, Okay. So I tore my labor and
(30:12):
training a couple of guys in the NFL, and I
was told You're never gonna be able to throw again.
And I'm like, I don't care. I don't throw. I'm
not a you know what doesn't matter to me. Well,
this year Fox asked me to throw out the first pitch.
Is a story for you guys. Me and saw Peyton
together throughout the first pitch of the Diamondback game because
(30:34):
that was gonna matter. The super bullet. Well, I have
my my labor cut out, like two or three years ago.
I didn't really see much about it when the doc
said you're not gonna be able to throw again. So
but he didn't reattach it. He just cut it out
so my shoulder will sub lecture dislocate if I do
the wrong thing. So I haven't thought about it at all. Right,
(30:55):
I go out there with Sean Payton lives you do
just make sure you don't bounce the pitch, and I'm like, oh,
thanks for putting down my head. I appreciate that. So
I go out there with Sean. We start warming up.
It's like seven throws in guys, I can't make it
up and pop it's sublexes, it's just pops out. It dislocates,
(31:18):
and I'm like, oh my god, I got forty five
more minutes. You gotta be kidding me, right, So I
walk over to Champagne. I'm like, all right, I'm good,
I'm done, and sounds like, well, you mean we've got
forty five minutes we gotta warm up or throwing out fitch.
I'm like, no, I'm good, I'm all right, I'm done,
and suns like we're gonna like I just don't want
to tell him. Why could? I was too embarrassed and
(31:38):
my shoulder just popped out. So literally he's like, hey, listen, Jake,
we're gonna warm up because also I'm not throwing from
what everybody else? I want to I want to throw
up the rubber. I want to throw off there from amount.
I'm like, oh my god, but dude killing me now
right but not? My shoulder is throwing up on me.
I can't move this thing. I'm like Kevin Copter from
(32:01):
Love of the Game. I got one pace left in me.
A man, I get up there. I am you know
what in my past, I shoot throw a cutter. It
reaches the plate to bounce a lot over there in
Sean Pagnan. He don't need to reach the plate. He
bounced it. Okay me all out. My shoulder is in agony.
(32:24):
If I go down to Tampa's right. When Tom came
back from his hiatus and I call Alex Guerrero the
TV twelt messing with Tom, I said, man, I feel
like a fool, but Marines and help. I walk in
there and this little TV twel method. He says, Jenny,
I'm not gonna lie to you. This is gonna hurt.
(32:47):
And he put my shoulder back together. The man I
had a towel in my mouth. I would screaming a crime.
But I have not had an issue since. So here
is I know you guys want to talk to football,
and I've did like a five minute story. Got the
story to a ball how the TV pro method is
amazing And I'm just taking up all your time And
(33:08):

all right, so light so let me ask this real
quick before you can tell us about the latest podcast

is so cool to have him on there, and like
just you know when Brandon Marshall talks about his issues,
like Brandon was one of the first ones who ever
did it, right before I did it, whatever, before I
started talking about my mental illnesses, he did it. But
it was so cool with that Brandon. He said, you know,
I started having therapy sessions in the weight room and
(35:42):
the cafeteria so everybody else could see. I was doing
it just to take away the stigma. And it's just

Welcome inside, Happy Thursday, The Jason Smith Show with my
bast friend Mike Harmon Hobo live from the tire Act
dot Com Studios. Direct dot Com will help you get
there an unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free road hazard protection,
(00:45):
over ten thousand recommended installers tirect dot com the way
tire buying should be well. On the very rainy Thursday night,
here from the tire Act dot Com Studios. We have
so much football to get to. We got offensive coordinate.
I don't think there's any outside of the teams that
let that are still in the playoffs. Mike Carmen, none
(01:07):
of the other teams, none of the other UH twenty
four teams in the player that are not in the
playoffs have an active offensive or defensive coordinator. They've all
been fired at this point, nobody there's twenty four openings
on each side of the ball. It is kind of
interesting because it always goes back to the same principle
you and I have been talking about for as long
as we've been doing this show. Something I have banged
(01:28):
the drum on uh as hard as I possibly can.
Very rarely do we call for coaches to get fired, right,
head coaches, coordinators all the way on down the line,
And when we do, there's usually a preponderance of evidence
to say you can't get this done, and sometimes the
team disagrees with you. Brandon Staley, but you have the
(01:49):
coordinator position, which I think is the same mechanism, because
now you have to go into the marketplace and say,
who are we getting that's better than this guy. We've
made the decision to fire him. Oh yes, so of
nine other teams, Well, so what are we gonna blay
musical chairs? This is this is one of those things.
This is one of those things that you know, we
(02:10):
run into his parents all the time. Okay, I'd love
to be able to solve this issue forever. But sometimes
you just have to solve issues for right now and
then worry about the big future in a few days.
It happens that way. So what a head coach is? Boy? Uh,
we really underachieved this year. I want to keep this job.
So I'm gonna throw my O C under the bus,
or I'm gonna throw my DC under the bus and
(02:31):
say it was your fault. Hey, g M, Hey, Mr Owner,
this wasn't me our defense. I think he needs to go.
I will, you know, and I will let him go
if you needed to let him go. Okay, I'll let
him go. I'll love this save my job if I
can somehow explain how the communication between he and the
players failed and it wasn't my fault. I mean I
delegated like I was supposed to. You said, put that
(02:53):
guy in charge of the offense, and look what he
gave you. I mean, look, he only gave you eighteen
points a game. I mean, what do you want from me?
All his I'm running the whole operation here. Yeah, but
but I'm I wasn't really that involved. I kind of
trusted him to do his own thing. I was with
the side of the ball. That was good. So I
went on you know, that's where I cont defensive background,
(03:14):
and we we came on strong the second half. Yeah,
let's alone. Yeah, I I really you know, the second half,
and you saw the approval. I was really more involved
with the team. That's I mean really that that's on me.
The other side me, I don't even know if I
talked to our offensive coordinator the last six weeks this season,
I don't even know. Man, Here, here's the print out
of how I used my key card and which rooms
I was in. You could see that I showed up
(03:36):
in more defensive meetings and look at what happened on
that side of the ball. Oh man, Today, Byron left,
which fired as o C by the Bucks, Greg Roman
resigning as offensive coordinator of the Ravens when it was
clear of the raven said hey we gotta go another directions.
Uh the utual firing and Donnitel is their defensive coordinator.
(03:57):
The Dolphins fired defensive coudator John Lawyer after they get
knocked out of the plans. Every listen, hey, all of
you guys, you're all gonna fall on the sword for
me right this? You know what reminds me of remember
the movie Dave. When Kevin Klein was a look alike
for the president, and and and and when he's really
the president, he's in the room with all his chief
of staff and everybody, and he sits there he says, listen,
(04:18):
I don't want to look like a jerk. I want
you guys to look like jerk's to the public. Right.
That's that's kind of how I feel. I'm not gonna
get fired for this. I want you guys to get
fired for this. So that's what we're gonna do. So
today was like Black Thursday, like with all for all
the c D. I mean you, we had like six
openings today. Hey, I got a I got a job.
I got a job. I got a job. I got
a job. It happened today. Yeah, an amazing week overall.
(04:42):
Glad to have you back. By the way, we missed
you the last couple of nights. All sorts of storylines,
nick losses and whatever else that we could have discussed
that we just kind of made mention. Yeah, but I
was at Disneyland, so I won. I was so excited. No,
I was really happy for you. I mean, you didn't
complain about the food. As we were and versing about it.
It just means you didn't work hard enough, because there's
(05:03):
opportunities there for for great now. But the rest of
the time was okay because you know, Steve Cohen bought
Disneyland and it actually was a Mets fans day there,
so actually it was great everything else there. But yeah,
I know, the food could have been a little bit better. Well,
you know what we wanted to do. We were going
to call security and say, can you find the guy
in the Syracuse or Met sweatshirt? We're not sure which,
(05:24):
And it was. It was a Syracuse sweatshirt and a
Mets at. It was Met sweatshirt and a SYRICU. Let
me tell you, let me, let me, let me honest
with you. It was a Syracuse sweatshirt. It was orange.
You couldn't miss me, alright, couldn't miss me. It was
a Syracus sweatshirt and a Syracuse at. I don't mix Syracuse.
If you go with one one one team, you can't
(05:45):
go with a different team. You gotta go. You gotta
look like a coach. You gotta look like, oh yeah,
I'm working for How many kids online called you kool aid?
Oh yeah, yeah, Like I said, orange is a tough
color to pull off. I wish my team's colors were
in orange, but they are, so it's not a lot
I could do. And you go in how many we
(06:07):
were trying to figure out? How many people in line
just said, this guy doesn't shut up, Let's move to
another rise. The hell's he keep talking about the Mets
and free agency. For I like seeing because everybody, like
when they go to Disneyland, they all like to wear
I'm gonna wear my best you know, uh sweatshirt or
my best team hat or something like that. It's always
like just seeing somebody in line and go like, like
(06:28):
we were in a forty Niners kept going, you can
beat the Cowboys this week. Oh yeah, I think so.
I said, Yeah, that stinks. Brock Purty got hurt. What
I know. I'm just kidding, man, I'm just kidding. Rock parties. Fine,
I'm just kidding. Oh, don't do that to me, man,
don't I kind of like doing that. That's kind of fun. No, Well,
you know, you gotta commiserate with folks and then slightly
slip in what you do for a living and evangelized.
(06:50):
We're trying to expand. I have McDonald's right now. Yeah, yeah,
I don't do it for well wait wait McDonald wait, Frostberg,
tell me the truth. Tell me you don't do that.
If you can make this happen, could you get me
to get paid to eat McDonald's every day? Can I
get Can I make money on eating McDonald's every day?
(07:11):
There's a reason they have billion served, right, But I
mean I paid them to eat, but I'm a walking
billboard for them. Hey, this guy likes McDonald's. Yeah, how
we haven't figured out how to to latch into that
to where you know, we're we're doing some sort of
tagline bit with with them for the amount you consume.
I mean maybe it's just because you do it for free,
(07:33):
by by for free. I pay for the fluid. No, no, no, no, no,
I'm saying, instead of you know, helping the line my pocket,
that you're doing it, you know you're paying for it,
and I got no chance of getting anything if you're
gonna keep, you know, talking about how great it is
without them putting dollars in your pocket. Hey, listen, don't
you know who I am? I'm Jason Smith. Oh you're
(07:54):
that guy. Yeah, listen, here's what I want, all right.
I want a free Big Mac, and I want to

and I want that every half. Hey, give me three chocolate.
I once said a guy laugh at me at a
restaurant and I and I said, and I gave him
a really low tip because he said, what would you
(08:15):
like it? I said, all right, I'll have a steak. Okay,
what do you want medium rare? What loaded baked potato?
All right? Uh? And what do you want to drink?
I said, diet coke? And he went diet And I'm like,
and everybody the table laughed. I was like, you just
lost your tip, Yeah, you just lost your That guy
probably couldn't even get home. Yeah, whatever is that you
want to laugh? I said, yes. I said, it's better
(08:36):
than if you always threatened to keep people's cars. I did, no, No,
I threatened to key a couple of people's cars last night.
It was fun. I kind of like doing that. Now
nobody does last night too. Yeah, well we did that.
We did the whole couple of day things. So it
was really cool. Don't have cars though? Yeah, no, no, no,
I don't know what you threaten key his car? How about, hey, Pluto,
how about a key that wagon you ride in all
(08:57):
the Yeah, you know I told to Prints I was
gonna do the I was gonna do the multi day
thing without him. And there they were like, you're a jerk. Wow. Yeah,
I would never threaten to go to Disneyland without my kids.
Once in a while, you know you you want some
some some everybody needs it a little time away. Listen,
dad needs is a lone time so you go in
(09:19):
to a bar and and and watch a game. No,
I'm going to Disneyland so I can stand inlide all day. Yeah,
happy ride while I eat snacks and taunt the kids
around because their parents won't buy it for him to
get right all the time. I'm keying that create Pluto,
that creek boy. But hey, you know what, maybe after
(09:42):
this I get an interviewed to be an o C
or a d C with one of the NFL teams,
and maybe maybe you guys love somebody else to kick
around here, And I got one of those jobs. And
suddenly I'm there with a with a hat and a pen,
behind my ear and maybe I'm growing a beard and
I'm wearing a I'm wearing some kind of headset and
I'm yelling into it for players to do stuff, and
you know, wearing nice school team gear and I'm an
o C. Hey, Jason, if you were my OC, I
(10:04):
tell you to go blank yourself and suck that. That
has been done before, there had precedency, but it but
it comes down the you know, back to the task
at hand. With the the number of openings here, he
always got to have a fall guy when things go awry.
And as much as we we love the silly season
(10:28):
as it's become both for player trades, movement and all
that fun stuff, rumor conjecture, speculation will do some of
it tonight. We we've now got the microwave society when
it comes to coaching. You know, we used to have
the you get a long run up all right, Now
you're not getting it done, beat it. But how many
coaches are now one or two years Hell, Kingsbury got
(10:49):
the extension and then got run out of town immediately.
Hey we're gonna pay you and then you're gone. Wait
this means I mean I've been in Thailand. Yeah, but
pirates booty. Did you see that their booty? Did you
see that story yesterday? That the one person I don't
know who it was, And it's impossible to buy a
one way ticket to Thailand and Cliff Kingsbury's lying about
where he is, or that he bought a one way
ticket to Thailand because you can't do that apparently, Well
(11:13):
maybe it's open ended, so we only had one date
on it. I feel like that was like the the
Seinfeld storeland you can't buy a house in Tuscany? What
do I mean? You can't buy a house in Tuscany? Hey,
I found one. You can't buy it? One way ticket
to Thailand. I'm gonna put you on a that's gonna
be the big line. Now someone gets fired his head
coach is gonna be that guy's gonna get a one
way ticket to Thailand. Well, yeah, get it no longer
(11:33):
your fire left on the tar back. Yeah, one way
ticket to Thailand. Is you want to coach getting fired?
Is that guy's on a one way ticket to Thailand?
After the season spoiler spoiler on it? Yeah, lots lots
of coordinator openings, so you can't wait to see the rumors.
Rumor mill that starts flying here. This guy has never
coached above uh, you know a little bit of special
(11:55):
teams coordination. Just just promote him. We had to fill
the spot. We have all kinds of NFL talk about rumor, conjecture, speculation.
What is next now for Lamar Jackson? What is next
now for Tom Brady? After their teams and maybe former
teams made those big moves. Yes, what Jets coach was
told to go blank himself? But one of the star
(12:16):
players earlier this year? What NFL team was excited when
their quarterback got replaced midseason? Here's a hit it was
the Jets. 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. Here's my theory about why ant
(12:36):
Man is really Spider Man? Okay, then I click on that,
and then I get to a theory about how why
the what is really Captain America? You know? And Okay,
let me go to that, you know, And then I'm like,
why did I even get on this thing? Why do
I have seven only fans open? Hey? If I could
find a way to make money doing hot takes on
only fans. I'd do it. I'd do it, man, But
(12:56):
I don't know. Well, I mean we could, we could.
There's a couple of other sites we could get on board.
I see the competition, though, it's really difficult, Like there's
stuff on only fans that I go. I can't comp
You can't jiggle your a. It's tough, man, I can't.
You don't think you don't think that's got some jiggle
in it? Yeah, come on, I saw him. I won't
found that big magma. You saw the end of Dodgeball,
and you want something for the ride home. Here you go.
(13:17):
My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, and
they're like, it's better than yours. I mean, I don't know,
with a hot with a couple of hot takes in there,
did I say hot takes to hot takes? No, she's
she's on the brain now. But uh, certainly you could
add some hotcakes. Look, it's all about percentages, right. Yeah,
(13:39):
it's a very large pie and you're looking to find
that small sliver because that still represents millions of dollars.
Just remember that. But here's the story. I didn't know
I needed was. I didn't because I feel like I'm
back in the in the summer, when because the way
(13:59):
the way the NFL is now when we get to
the summer, and with the preseason being something that has
lost a little bit of luster because the big players
don't play anymore, right, starters don't play anymore. You don't
see a lot of big storylines coming out of games.
You rely on the drama from practice and what's going
on with your team, and everybody is into their own team. Hey,
(14:20):
how did so and so look in seven on seven's
bad day for Zack Wilson and the Jets offense, which
is like every day in the summer, you know, to
red zone interceptions, there was a nice grab by Garrett Wilson,
and you know in the drills in the afternoon, and
everybody is really into reading about their own team, and
so you get an updated. Hey, what's this position battle going? Well,
the battle for the nickelback is is Why did I say?
(14:41):
Then say why did I say that? Uh? Luckily Tisher's
not paying attention. He's looking at me. What did I
just miss? Wrong shot? That was the coin flip of draws.
Go back to play in Halo. I'm not tight shirt.
(15:02):
Just looked up at me from his from his from
his uh, his laptop, was like, uh, what I miss
is what I press? I pressed the wrong but I
did not. No, no, no, no, on on on on
on on on on, man, no, that's not what I said.
You say hot cakes, hot cakes, and hey, man, there
(15:23):
there's probably someone willing to watch you eat and pay
money for it. There's a lot of really strange things
out there. Tell him, I'm digging that. If this I
just want to out there, I'm just gonna eat. Here's
the thing, though, is that I'd have to learn how
to eat slower because I pretty fast. But you also
you know, well, I mean some folks might want it
(15:43):
that way. It's a quick diversion. And he moved back.
But since you always had extra sauce, cheese and other
things to it, it gets messy, like there's lots of
stuff here. I'm gonna watch that video with Jason Smith
eating a big mech. How long is it? Thirty nine seconds? No,
I mean how long is the whole video? No, thirty
nine seconds him first bite to the end. It's thirty nights. Okay, yeah,
that's somebody, say nickel back, maybe he went back and
(16:12):
listened to the audio home you missed the first time,
and then you turned your mic off and went justin,
what did happened? For some reason, I didn't say it,
justin pays attention to say even said, oh, I almost
said it right there. I almost said it. I really
was close to saying it, but I didn't. I didn't
(16:32):
say it, didn't say it, didn't say it. Uh So
kind of like when you go back to to to
the summer and you read about those stories. Now, great, there,
Now I got everybody's mind in the summer, summer's green,
feeling the heat and not my team can win this year?
Was I didn't know I needed the play by play
drama during the day today of how Brett Maher was
doing in practice for the Cowboys, how his field goal
(16:56):
and extra point kicking was going, and I got a
great day. Hey, Bret Marr is six for six uh
field goals so far today. He looks really confident. And
I didn't know that I was that I needed this
story because you think about it, I don't know that
there is a more exciting storyline that every NFL fan
(17:18):
would be into this weekend more than how is Brett
Maher going to do kicking field goals and extra points? Right?
Because you take NFL, you take all the NFL fans
from across the league, right, we have you have all
the teams getting ready in the drama, you know, Burrow
and Alan. But if you're asking fans of just football fans,
not fans of teams playing in the game, Hey, what's
the most exciting storyline this week? And they're gonna say, dude,
(17:40):
the late game on Sunday, Cowboys forty nine, is it
gonna come down to a field goal? Is it gonna
come down to an extra point? That's like the number
one storyline. How is Brett Maher going to do kicking
field goals and extra points this week? And I I
didn't know that I needed that story so bad, but
I do. Well when you think about it, and you've
got to spread that's hovering in that what three and
a half a four and a half point range with
(18:01):
the forty niner's favorite at home even at Jerry Jones
on his weekly radio interview, and I call it like
a fireside chat quote. It would be a really, really
be a big setback to go into the rest of
this tournament. The rest of this playoff with shakiness at kicker.
So there was an awful lot of looks I'm sure
(18:23):
over at this guy, you know, as well, to make sure, Hey,
how's he looking over there? Is he ready to supplant him?
If he falters, do we get to tappy elbow and
move on? Because that's one of the big, big decisions
you're gonna have to make going into the weekend. Do
we trust him? Maybe the the audio from NFL Films
and the video leaked of Dak throwing his helmet down.
(18:43):
We all knew what he said, but now we heard it.
Go for blanket tone. I know, I know right, it's
it's insane. Let's go for to go for you got
sheety lamb sitting next to we got you? Man? How
many times you bail us out? What are we doing?
Let's let's go for two? Why are we kidding? Didn't
the kick? I get your points? But just just think
about this weekend. Every time he comes onto the field
(19:06):
for an extra point, it's oh my god, oh my god,
is he gonna make it? It's a game that looks
to be in range right where one of those kicks.
Not just if we're talking final minutes, you know, and hey,
games on the line there, but just in the flow
of a game, what that means to the changing of
offensive and defensive strategy and every every time out clock management.
(19:30):
Of course I say that and I chuckle because I'm
thinking about Mike McCarthy, But you get my point. M uh,
this is going to be like, it's the game of
the weekend. We have a lot of great game this weekend,
but forty nine is Cowboys. Sunday games are everything. Yeah,
I mean, look, I celebrate them all. It's divisional. The
cheapest ticket is like five bucks for this game, you know,
(19:51):
I mean, it's it's that big a deal. But the
the Brett Maher storyline, it's just it's it's one of
those organic events that just happens and it grabs all
your attention for a very short period of time. It's,
oh my god, we gotta We're watching it on Monday right,
looking at each other going what the hell is going on? Right?
And Neddie starts adjusting how he's setting up, and then
(20:13):
the final one we didn't even get to see it.
What he finally made one. I still feel cheated, Mike.
I thought it was Nate Kating good for you. It's
not too soon. Now we actually have audio of Brett
Maher from practice that here we have that audio Frostberg. Okay,
so here's Brett McGain six for six a practice today
(20:34):
kicking field which part of me thinks, like that about right,
I'm like, that's all he kicked that lee. Yeah, then
he was over his next twelve, but he was six
for his first six. He might have audio one of
those miss al right, here we are. Here's audio Brett Maher, uh,
field goal, field goal, extra point? What it was? It was?
It both? Okay, field goal from Bret Maher earlier today
(20:57):
Cowboys practice goals seven Dolphins trailing the forty niners by one.
This will win the game for Miami. There's the snack
for Reoles, the kick and it's why no, Wow, I
(21:25):
can't believe they actually had that big play by play
calling Cowboy and the people calling his field calls in
practice today like it was a game. We're gonna make
it like a game situation the Bam Cowboys Radio Network. Look, man,
you gotta simulate the whole thing. You gotta give it
the gravitas. You know, you're not just funneling in some
audio They actually hired sixty thousands, you know, people to
(21:49):
stand in. They told him what to wear, the whole
whole deal. Here we're looking for extras. Twitter and out
about a fresca. Mike gets swollen down the Jason Smith
Show with my best friend my car even brought Hans
Zimmer in with the score no question. Hey can I
get some good tense field goal kicking music? Alright? Great?
(22:10):
I wonder if that would help a kicker or not
help if they played tense field goal kicking music. I
wonder if that went, that would be better or worse
than I like this? Dn't du dun dun un. Well,
you really just made Hans zimmern Zimmer. Huh. He was
playing Mario Brothers. But that but that's a song though,
(22:31):
dun Dunn, that's his that's his biggest song. Really due
du dun dun. Always just go back to be done
with it. You know, we went, we went dun dun
dun dun dun dun dun dunt dun. And well, come on, coolery,
it's it's over for Zimmer and the Vikings here tonight
(22:54):
on the show. I really was waiting for running up
that hill start. That's top ten. How's this in the
background is your kicker lines, Dad, d J. We're gonna
give you an update on Mars extra points in real
time today from practice Twitter and out about a Fresco
(23:15):
Mike and swollen do I mean? I look, if it
would come down to a Brett Maher kicked, that would
be outstanding. But but I'm gonna stick by what I said.
It'll well, we'll get into this game in big detail
tomorrow night and we pick it. But uh, dude, this
is gonna be the forty Niners. It's it's it's one
thing to to beat a team that is not very
good and barely is squeaking in and look like world beaters. Okay, yeah,
(23:39):
you want on the road. That's great, but Tampa stinks.
Tampa wasn't very good and suddenly all the cowboys have
sold all the problems. Yeah, good luck on Sunday in
that big uptick in competition. Good luck give me the
Niners all day on Sunday. Well, you already picked the game,
so there it is. Be sure to catch live editions
of The Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at
ten pm Eastern, seven pm Pacific. But one thing we
(24:02):
can do right now. Joining us now on the hot line,
a big hot route. This isn't the this isn't in
the huddle when you find out, hey, guess what, go along,
I'll let you on the go route NFL on Fox
Insider Extraordinary. You can follow on Twitter at Jay Glazer.
It is the aforementioned Jay Glazer. Jay, what's happening man?
(24:23):
How you been man? It's been a couple of weeks,
house things, living to dream man. I'm doing great when
we're here in the middle of the playoffs. Look at Foxes,
James and I'm not trying to be a company guy.
Please Guiant Eagles fording onto Cowboys? Are you serious? Now?
Tell me the truth? Now? Did did Jerry Jones approach
you to kick for the Cowboys on Sunday? He did,
(24:44):
but I couldn't pass the Drug's an honest man, Sorry, Jerry.
I'd love to do it, but I've never had passed.
Nor the personalities, yes they give you, nor the background
check did give you? Than that I'm a model of stability.
(25:09):
I'm getting a T shirt made that says I'm a
model with stupid. That's it. I tell you that, Jay,
you said it like the all the weekends games are great,
but that Cowboys forty Niners game is is just gonna
be something absolutely extra special. You know. You know I
when I the other day, I talked to you know,
Mike McCarthy, dan Quin, a couple of players like game day,
(25:32):
and it just felt like they were there for a
business trip and for a fight. It felt different. And
I literally on the phone up. I turned to people
I was with. I said, oh, man, Dallas about to tick.
You know one of these guys, I said, Way said, manage.
You can just sometimes you can tell when someone's locked in.
I can tell with fighters, but I could tell it.
(25:53):
You know, everyone excell with fighters a lot better obviously
than football players, but you could tell it. Team was
just locked in like a business trip, and man, they were.
I wasn't surprised by the score at all. I was
surprised by the kicker. I was suprised on the score. Yeah.
I think we're all still trying to scratch our head
and figure that one out. Jay, But watching that game
(26:15):
go down and now all the fallout, but you know,
front and Center and all of this and the weird,
wacky offseason that we're we're getting into for the rest
of the squads is Lamar Jackson situation him on social media,
where he is at with his knee recovery. Whaty well,
it was just the stuff about being appreciated and all
(26:35):
just going into last weekend, uh that he had had
had put up you know, kind of the uh you
know now for deep thoughts with Lamar Jackson. I didn't
see it. Yeah, So it was just one where it's
you know, he had the back and forth about his
knee and where he was at physically, and then he
put up a note about being appreciated where you are
(26:59):
and such paraphrasing, of course, but you know hard bought today. Hey,
we want him to to be our guy. How does
this shake out? Bashadi gonna write him the big check?
I don't. I don't think. Look, he's represent himself, so
it's hard. He still wants a fully guarantee deal. I
don't see them doing that. I see them franchise tagging
them um. And I wouldn't be surprised if they try
(27:22):
to trade him, even though they saying what they say
right now. But I just would be surprised because they're
unless let's all of a sudden they decided to budging
cave and get him Bron Watson, Joe. I don't know
where they're gonna find come ground. You know, the one
thing Jay did open open this up for a little
bit here is that you know, Lamar has not had
an agent, and I always look at everybody that has
(27:44):
an agent knows it. Look, it stops it stops it
from getting personal. And I don't know how it doesn't
get personal point when you don't have someone doing that
for you, exactly, it's so hard. And listen, also, in
order to be great, you gotta be crazy, Okay, and me,
the mental health guy is saying this right, in order
to great, you have to be crazy. You have some
(28:05):
crazy to be on this level to work as hard
as Lamar Jackson or anything you're gonna do, to work
this much, to put so much. You're difference in the
rest of the world. And I'm saying crazy in a
good way. You're different the rest of the world. But
the mere crazy you come back and bite you when yeah,
we're trying to negotiate for ourselves and man, we're hearing
(28:25):
this stuff about why we're not worth it, why, but
you're you're trying to tell you want the good crazy
from this player on the field. But then you gotta
go tell the same guy why you're not worth with
Deshaan Watson got and man, god, just they're not able
to handle that. That's what agents are for. Agents kind
(28:46):
of break it and agents do that dirty work when
you're going back and forth on things and they have
to tell you why you're not worth it and you're
trying to fight why you are worth it is every
time you heard something like like sasative about you, But
it's gonna drive you crazy, right, it would be would
(29:08):
any of us. That's why I have an agent because
otherwise drive it's crazy and it's just it's just not business.
Fires for a deal on just not the most in disaspiance. Yeah,
I gotta get on that because maybe it would take
some of the stuff out of my head. Jay, So
if you have any advice on getting one of those,
uh from my own world, it'll help. At Jay Glazer
(29:30):
where you find him on Twitter, Fox, NFL Sunday. He
is a broadcast Hall of Famer, founder of m v P,
then Unbreakable Performance and of course Unbreakable the podcast, which
we'll get to in a minute. But we saw the
Tampa Bay Bucceteers clean house today left which you're talking
about you talking about unbreakable performance and talking about the Buccaneers.
(29:52):
We just gotta deal with one Thomas Brady where um
Brakable is now the home of PB twelve in Los Angeles.
Anybody out there and wants physical therapy, want rehab, I'm
breakable of the spot to go and let me tell
you this about the TV Twelt method. I'm gonna take
this moment here, Okay. So I tore my labor and
(30:12):
training a couple of guys in the NFL, and I
was told You're never gonna be able to throw again.
And I'm like, I don't care. I don't throw. I'm
not a you know what doesn't matter to me. Well,
this year Fox asked me to throw out the first pitch.
Is a story for you guys. Me and saw Peyton
together throughout the first pitch of the Diamondback game because
(30:34):
that was gonna matter. The super bullet. Well, I have
my my labor cut out, like two or three years ago.
I didn't really see much about it when the doc
said you're not gonna be able to throw again. So
but he didn't reattach it. He just cut it out
so my shoulder will sub lecture dislocate if I do
the wrong thing. So I haven't thought about it at all. Right,
(30:55):
I go out there with Sean Payton lives you do
just make sure you don't bounce the pitch, and I'm like, oh,
thanks for putting down my head. I appreciate that. So
I go out there with Sean. We start warming up.
It's like seven throws in guys, I can't make it
up and pop it's sublexes, it's just pops out. It dislocates,
(31:18):
and I'm like, oh my god, I got forty five
more minutes. You gotta be kidding me, right, So I
walk over to Champagne. I'm like, all right, I'm good,
I'm done, and sounds like, well, you mean we've got
forty five minutes we gotta warm up or throwing out fitch.
I'm like, no, I'm good, I'm all right, I'm done,
and suns like we're gonna like I just don't want
to tell him. Why could? I was too embarrassed and
(31:38):
my shoulder just popped out. So literally he's like, hey, listen, Jake,
we're gonna warm up because also I'm not throwing from
what everybody else? I want to I want to throw
up the rubber. I want to throw off there from amount.
I'm like, oh my god, but dude killing me now

what in my past, I shoot throw a cutter. It
reaches the plate to bounce a lot over there in
Sean Pagnan. He don't need to reach the plate. He
bounced it. Okay me all out. My shoulder is in agony.
(32:24):
If I go down to Tampa's right. When Tom came
back from his hiatus and I call Alex Guerrero the
TV twelt messing with Tom, I said, man, I feel
like a fool, but Marines and help. I walk in

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
