taken over Leono MESSI enter Miami one one in the
(00:52):
eighty seventh minute. But more importantly, at least for right now,
the United States leading Vietnam just two do nothing at
halftime in their World Cup opener. I'm not saying I'm nervous,
Mike Carmen, because I do want to. I do understand that. Look,
this is a new team, a lot of new faces.
(01:12):
The first half of the first game is gonna be
a little different. They're not gonna be quite as sharp
as they're expected to be. But if we get to
the seventy fifth minute and it's kind of still like
this and the United States looks like they're having trouble,
then I'll be a little nervous because I you know,
we talked about it last night. The biggest thing is
gonna be scoring goals. You know, can the United States
(01:32):
when it gets not games like here? Obviously Vietnam they
can't even get the ball past midfield. So I'm not
too I'm not too concerned about this game. But overall,
when you talk about advancing, we need some people that
can put the ball in the back of the net.
And as you can see by the first half, is
Alex Morgan still elite? I don't know. Sophia Smith, who's
got two goals in the United States, may be the
most important player on the US women's national team because
(01:55):
somebody else is gonna have to score. Rapino's gonna play
limited minutes. Who knows how good Olex Morgan still really is.
She might be the most important player. She's got two
goals to start, so for her great start, everybody else.
Let's see how the second half goes.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Yeah, I mean Alex Morgan picking up where Saint Clair
left off yesterday with your favorite player with a terrible
penalty shot straight up the gut. So even if the
goalie guess is completely wrong, it's the length of her
body to stop it in the middle of the head.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Well, she'd do if she just fell to one side, Like,
that's what I would do. I would pick a side
and just fall to one side. I would have made
that save. I would just fall into that side.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Yeah, so you get to save there a couple of chances,
a couple of uh there was a ball in the
twenty eighth minute, and you know that was just wide,
a bit of an impossible angle for the shot that
that Morgan had taken. But you know, all in all,
you know, you're also playing against the defense that you're
you're packing it in like you're you're battling Derrick Henry
or all of the goal line.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
We know where it's going.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Yeah, No, so I mean you got to overcome that.
But a lot of dribble as opposed to connecting passes
and setups. We'll see what happens. Second half. Five shots
on goal to Vietnam zero I mean they had virtually
no possession. I'd love to see the top for the
first half, but you know, the second half different legs.
(03:19):
You get to go back in and you know, have
your vocal ranting session of what all went wrong? Because really,
I mean, you're a five and a half goal favorite.
Let's go yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Look, that's what. I don't want to panic too early
because everybody else wants to panic right now? Why nothing?
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Why not?
Speaker 4 (03:35):
It's hot takes theater.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Yeah, it's forty five minutes, and I want to give
them this the halftime. Let's settle down. Look again, a
lot of a lot of players making their debuts here,
and this is a little bit different. Even though you
get to the World Cup, it's still a little bit
different than the friendlies and the prep games going forward
all this stuff. So I want to give them a
little bit. I want to see if they're a little
bit sharper in the second half, see if they're able
(03:56):
to really start connecting on things. But the team, you're
just going to get better. I mean this is a
team like look, you saw the play by play in
the first half. Vietnam is just hoping to score a
goal in the world try to get one big run
you're just hoping to score a goal.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Well you saw it near the what was it the
ninth minute of extra time? How ridiculous was that? Like
ten and a half minutes an extra Yeah, but they
had one big run out and I was like, uh,
here you go, yeah there. Oh, it just takes one, right,
It takes one breakdown defensively, one misjudging of a ball
in the air, and and you got chaos ensus and
(04:32):
well that was swept away without much fanfare thereafter. But
you know, in the moment when you're you're not taking
control and not putting the ball in the back, and
that I can't say they didn't have control, They just
didn't finish.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
No, And again Vietnam is packing the box. It is.
It is a little more difficult, but this is still
you're talking about You're an eight and a half goal favorite, rightly,
five and a half, five and a half the favorite.
This is I mean, this is a this is a
pretty big deal. And in the end is gonna wind
up something like five or six nothing probably, And are
there some good things gonna be to take away from
(05:06):
this game? Yeah, But overall, the overall sense and what
you and I have talked about for a while, is
that this is not the same United States team coming
into this World Cup, that hey, we're just gonna roll
over everybody, and if we have one tough game along
the way, that's gonna be it. That's gonna be it
for us. Everything else should be pretty easy. This is
not that team. This is new players. Because we saw
(05:28):
that he in the Olympics. It was we weren't fast enough,
We got tired the older players. There's been no big
ramp up of the younger generation so far. They're all
getting used to things. Not having Mallory Swanson is a
really big deal because she's somebody would score a lot
of goals. That's gonna be the thing. And I see
this World Cup going where, look, no one's gonna dominate
(05:49):
the United States. But could I see a lot of
once you get to the bigger games in the knockout stage,
could I see a lot of games zero zero and
teams playing and maybe it being like an even kind
of game, and teams playing for penalties where anything can happen. Yeah,
I can see games where the United States gives up
a big run. When you have a team with an
elite scorer that that can hit the put the ball
(06:11):
in the back of the net. I can see them
losing one nothing and then the other team's packing the box.
So it's it's not about now, It's not about this
game against Vietnam, because, like I said, I don't know
how how many times Vietnam gonna get the ball passed
midfield in the second half, three times, four times?
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Yeah, inside thirty yards? Yeah, I think you got one.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Yeah yeah, And they're gonna get tired. And look, Rose
Levell is gonna come in the second half, and so
is Megan Rapino. So you have to think that their
leadership is going to settle things a little bit. And
Levell is just about getting her win back and and
and for Repino, you know she's gonna be in limited
minutes because this is a retirement tour. She's only gonna
play probably fifteen to twenty minutes a night. But you
know that that's where I expect to see a little
(06:48):
bit better sharper play from the United States. But this
ain't gonna be a cake walk. This ain't gonna be hey,
back to back to back to back. Look how great
we are. We have two teams that can compete in
the World Cup. That's not the case. Now. This is
a team that's gonna struggle to put the ball in
the back of the net. And as as rough as
first half as it was for Alex Morgan, who got
a complete break on Sophia Smith's second goal because she
(07:10):
was offside. I don't know what. Yeah, they were looking
at I'm like, oh, we're not getting out she's off side.
Oh no, we're getting the goal. Oh great, yay?
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Do nothing?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Did nothing?
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Yeah, It's like did they call the reset after the
ball got popped out? Yeah, or something. I don't know.
It's it's almost like you were playing make it take it. Yeah,
I got past the free throw and make it take it.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I just gonna just go.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
You guys get you know, you could be wherever you
need to be. Got the ball. We got back out there.
But I mean you talk about and and injuries are
part of the game for every nation, no question about it.
But you don't have Macario, who you thought might have been,
you know, ready to ramp up to this point. Uh
not their sour run press. Uh you mentioned Swanson. I
mean you're missing a lot of firepower. Uh So trying
(07:52):
to bring it together and the and the way it
works when you you have just a couple of weeks
together because of the NWSL you know that that's part
of it that plays in as well, Jason. I mean,
they have a couple of weeks together, especially when you're
integrating so many young players, it's not quite so simple
(08:13):
to get that flow. And again you're packing the box
Vietnam to do anything you can to just keep the
bleeding at a trickle here and then give yourself a
puncher's chance. So curious to see what second half brings
for us, but certainly an uneven kind of weird. I
mean Alex Morgan getting stopped out a penalty, I mean you,
(08:36):
I mean, I'm sure Steve Seger was like, hey, it's
coal jakes her too, that's right, and out that the
Seger jinks. By the way, at the end of.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Your first year, discover credit cards automatically double all the
cash back you are and that's right, everything you were
in doubled. Seriously see terms check it out for yourself
at discovered dot com slash match. So somebody that the
US women's national team could have used in the first
half is Leonel Messi, who of course is making his
MLS debut tonight Goodness in the League's Cup for Inner Miami.
(09:06):
In he comes into the game, he comes off the
bench and right away they give up the lead. No,
I can't believe it. He's overrated.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
Oh this cups minus took a hit.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
However, on a free kick probably about ten yards outside
the box middle of the field. Messi has just scored
in the ninety third minute to give Inner Miami the
two to one lead. Right now, he's taking a victory lap.
The stands are insane. It was some kind of again
(09:36):
about ten feet behind uh the eighteen, and it's a
left footed curl and they cut to David Beckham on
the sideline, who's like, yeah, how I did it? I mean,
this is this is Messi is going on. It's like
when Ripken played in twenty six thirty two and he's
high fiving all the fans around the field. That's what
Messi is doing right now. Hey, great getting horses.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
That's it. I mean that that's a beautiful shot to
the upper and west inside the upper leve post right there.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Man, that is wow.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
You can't you can't write it any better than that. Man.
And they're wearing pink uniforms in celebration of the Barbie release.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah well sure, sure, yeah. I gotta say though, of those,
I really don't like the callers. I don't like the
jersey with the it's too formal. What do you know
about faults? Don't I don't like the call and now
and now the game is over, MESSI scoring in the
final minute over inner, Miami wins already. Hey worth every
penny scrypted, worth every penny from all.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Look at that. I like that for every scripted. You
can't write it any better than that. One thing to
note though, that right before game time, remember how much
people were spending for like a block of four seats
you know, midfield whatever, Sure they get in in the
final fifteen minutes before kickoff was like one hundred and
fifty bucks.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yeah, but if you wanted to go, if you wanted
to sit next to David Beckham, it was you know,
a thousand.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Right, But if you just wanted to be in for
the moment, like it was hyped like it was the
most expensive thing ever and really it wasn't.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yeah, well, well but the priceless.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Sandwiches and shame on, dude, I bought yesterday. You could
have gotten in to see messy plates. Dude.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Ticket companies don't say, hey, come buy from us. They're
really low and there's no fees. No, they got a
kind of jacket.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
No, no, no. But but that's why I was cautioning against it,
because we did the story. I was like, all right,
this is some bad journalism because everybody likes the shocking
headline when reality was, if you just wanted to get
in this, you know, for the price of a cup.

(12:53):
United States still with a two to nothing lead over Vietnam.
In the fifty third minute, Lindsay Horan just had a
big chance shot wide. We'll keep you updated on this.
I know you're saying, why aren't there more goals? Well,
we've still got a lot of time to go on it. Meanwhile,
this has been a big week in the National Football League.
We saw Saquon Barkley say I could hold out. Jordan Schultz,
(13:16):
longtime NFL inside in front of the show, had that
scoop earlier this week, and now we're wondering are the
commanders going to change their names again, because Josh Harris
has said, hey, I want to bring the Glory Days backs.
Glory Days doesn't mean when we're the Washington Commanders. So
does this mean Redskins is coming back? Does this mean
a different name? I would gamble, Mike, I would give
(13:38):
you this bowl prediction. Within a year they have a
new nickname.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Well, we just track anything that might be trademark copyrighted,
or any negotiations of things that may have already been
squatted upon by local entrepreneurs.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
How do you feel if you're one of those people
that squatted on the possible name for so long? Commanders,
I don't need to pay for that anymore. Oh crap.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Well, I mean look, Magic was you know in his
interviews he was saying, how about they we call him
the Washington Lakers.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Maybe somebody who does know what they're gonna be called
joins us. Now, speaking of Jordan Schultz, he is here
with us now. He's on Twitter at Schultz Underscore Report.
That's at Schultz Underscore Report. He's on TikTok at real
Jordan Schultz. This is where Jordan you break news with
dances right on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Yeah, exactly exactly. That's right.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Sweet.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
So so you had so you went the Saquon Barkley
hold out, You had your own Saquon Barkley TikTok dance
to break that news earlier.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
No, I wish I I don't have that sway, And
I gotta say, I wish I knew what the commander's
potential new nicknames was, but I don't, So I don't
have the information for you.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Well, the big thing, and you tweeted this out a
little bit ago, is look, everybody, of course is relieved
and happy that Daniel Snyder is out of the NFL.
He's a bad owner, a bad guy. But you says
there there seems to be a unanimous sense that of relief.
A lot of people in the nfcast were going, we
kind of wish he was still there because he was
that bad an owner, Like hey, which he was still
(15:13):
that we could keep beating them.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
That's absolutely right. So there was the whole unanimous thank
god this guy is gone. He's a nightmary, he's a disaster.
He's an albatrot in the league. But in the NFDS
you have executives, you have teams saying, you know, selfishly,
it'd be great to keep him around. I had one
guy tell me he was that bad. And really, when
(15:36):
you talk about Daniel Snyder, I would say venture to say,
alongside James Dowen, those are the two worst owners in
North American forces over the last several decades. I mean,
they're just both horrendous, both no concept of humanity and
really no understanding morally compass wise to run a franchise,
(15:57):
just rutless. And I thought it was interesting that Josh
gris in front of you know, his his fan base
is we want to restore the Commanders or the Redskins
to be number one. At least you have an owner
and now that has a vision. That's something they simply
have not.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
Had called into a broadcast too, and bought the bar
free beer, so you know, being a man of the
people right away too.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
So absolutely so we'll definitely do a big that will
do big numbers in the DNV.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
I like it.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I was gonna say, all you needed to do was
whisper and hint that you might and you're that much
better off than the old guy just for saying, you
know what, I'd like to drink a beer with you
something He didn't even have to spend a dime.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
Seven percent, by the way, was the profit margins for
Daniel Snyder. So I know he gets the sixty million
dollar fines whatever it was, but he ended up making
over five well over five billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
So yeah, but I want to go back. This is
not going to slide here. You wait till the Knicks
are in the bleeping finals next to your Jordan Schultz.
Despite the fact that we have James Dolan as our owner.
You watch Jalen Brunson holding up the Larry O'Brian Trophy,
and I'm gonna call you and say, you watch that
television right now.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
If if that happens, then I will TikTok my way
off the app look at because yeah, listen, no, I
love the Dylan Brunton move. I I live in New
York and the Knicks have a phenomenal fan base. So selfishly,
as a basketball fan, I would love for that team
(17:30):
to be relevant. And obviously they are headed in the
right direction, so I will say that.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
All right, there we go. Okay, James Dolan here, here's it.
Not as bad as Daniel Snyder right there there? You
know that's that's Okay, that's we'll say.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
He's still on the metal stand. So you got that
going for you. All right, Let's go to the Giants
in Saquon Barkley, the interview and his quotes talking about
the potential of stepping away ten million bucks five hundred
thousand dollars a week once we get started. As much
as you may want to take a stand, that's an
awful lot to risk when you've only been able to
(18:02):
put one huge year here. Jordan, Well, how do you
think this ends?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I still think he'll play football next season. The tag
is ten million in change. He is, you know, arguably
their best player, certainly one of their most important players.
And you know last year over twelve hundred yards rushing,
double digit touchdowns, a second Pro Bowl, and he was
about a third of their offense. I mean, he really
is incredibly significant, and maybe more importantly is the morale
(18:32):
inside that building. And you know him and Daniel Jones
are enormously close. You know, he has a great relationship
with Andrew Thomas. He in many ways embodies what it
is to be a New York Giant. I'm frankly surprised,
guys that they did not get a long term extension done.
I thought Josh Jacobs and Tony Pollard were significant long shots,
(18:53):
but I really thought there was a pathway forward. For sake,
I want to get a deal done now. I do
think he'll play football next seas. I don't really know
what the alternative is. But I also think that will
be his last season with the Giants, because I don't
know how you really come back from this, you know.
I mean, he's he's twenty six, they'll be twenty seven,
and he understands very well that his earning window is now,
(19:16):
and so it's got to be enormously frustrating for him.
But I also understand the Giants' perspective to a degree,
although selfishly I would love to see him get paid
because I think he's earned it.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
You know, I get the Giants, though, see this, I
disagree with you, because they see they picked him second. Overall,
this is a new regime now that has no loyalty
to him, and they watched him be hurt and ineffective,
and here it is, and what is quote a contract here?
And he plays great? What's going to happen when we
give him that money? Right? So I kind of understand
that a little bit because that's the business of how
it goes in the NFL. May and they have said,
(19:49):
we made our choice. We gave Daniel Jones all kinds
of cash. We didn't give it to Saquon Barkley. You
can tell this is the way the team is going now.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
I mean it's four years, one hundred and sixty for
Daniel and and I was fortunate enough to, you know,
have that story. And I remember when it happened, thinking
this is going to impact Saquon because I thought it
would maybe not make it so there wasn't a deal,
but I thought it would it would minimize the chances
or minimize the amount of money because they made it
(20:19):
very clear that Daniel Jones was their top priority and
he's the quarterback and he should be. On the other side,
I'll say that sometimes you just you know, you almost
have to bite the bullet. I would go back to
several years back when the Giants believe that Justin Tuck
was probably done, and they were right. He went to
(20:41):
the Raiders, but a lot of Giant fans wanted Dustin
Tuck to just be a Giant for life because that's
what they felt like. And I think in Saquon's case,
there's some similarities. Now he doesn't have the Super Bowls,
he doesn't have that much equity, but in so many
ways he is embodying what it is to be a giant,
you know, alongside Daniels. So yeah, they jove Daniel. I
think the bigger, the bigger picture here. The bigger problem,
(21:04):
guys is the running back market, which is a whole
other can of worms, and you're seeing it really come
to fruition now, running backs, even great running backs, not
getting paid. We know Freme hunts on side, Leonard Fournettes
on signs, Dalvin Cookson signs. There's just so many good
players in the position and the league is simply not
paying them.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Now we see James Robinson's sign today, right, and Melvin
Gordon along with Cole Beasley back in the game trying
to bolster that receiving core there in New York.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Yeah, I think the Beasley signing is actually the most
interesting to me in that you know, he has the
connection with Brian day Ball. I know. I listen, I'm
going to tell you point blank, Dave All has been
trying to get him there for quite some time. This
this goes back to the combine this relationship or this courting,
(21:59):
and they obviously have the connection back to Buffalo. A
lot of this, a lot of Beasley being signed to
New York was Brian Dabele. And I will tell you
as well that as much as I love Dylan Hyatt,
who's going to play in the slot, Beasley's gonna have
a significant role in the slot as well. And he's
a very good football player. He's healthy, and I think
that was an underrated pickup. I like the move. I
(22:21):
don't know how much Robinson, what impact he has. It's
clearly an insurance policy. They draft Derek Gray out of Oklahoma,
who they like a lot.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
They have Gary brightwell there.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
I don't know what his future is, but obviously Robinson
is still young and did have a great rookie year
just two years ago.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
NFL insider Jordan Schultz our guest here the Jason Smith
Show with Mike Carmon. Now, the other big news today,
potentially Aaron Rodgers might be around for longer than this year.
He said one year would be a disservice to the Jets.
So now I'm not only am I thinking, Jordan, We're
winning the Super Bowl this year, I'm thinking back to back.
I'm thinking maybe a three peat for Aaron Rodgers, then
(22:57):
he walks away. That's kind of where I am right now.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
You think it's two thousand yards for Garrett.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Wilson, Oh, yeah, sure, easy, a.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Fifth MVP for Rogers. Yeah, I would say I've been
asked this for the last day as well about Rogers.
What's the what's the prognost? I think minimum two years,
max three. I don't see four. His cap hit is
more than one hundred and seven million dollars, you know,
next year, which is obviously an enormous number, and they're
going to have to restructure. But I will I would
(23:28):
be surprised if he doesn't play at least two. I mean,
they're set up really well. And I'm not just saying
this is your jet stand. They're set up really well.
Wilson's tremendous. Obviously, they have the running backs, pretty good
offensive line, terrific young defense. So he comes into a
great situation. And they also went out and got Allens Are,
they went out and got Nicole Hartman. So I think
(23:49):
there's a really good chance he played at least two
years there. And that division is tough. I mean, Buffalo
should be good, Miami should be good, and England should
be better. But I think that's an eleven twelve and
football team. I think they have all the pieces.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
How soon do I get tired of Jason's excitement about
the Jets? No, no, no, let let's let's he's a
top season insider. He knows these answers.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Let's just take a couple of minutes and abbreviate that
moment that Jordan Schultz is talking about all this success
for the Jets.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Well, he predicted regular season for success.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
You know, the last time I had any kind of
any kind of regular season success talk on the radio
about the Jets.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Come on, Mike, the Jets and Knicks. I mean, both
of them have not exactly had a couple of great decades,
but they had their first quarterback, you know, I mean
with respect to Sanchez, you know Pennington, I mean, it's
the best quarterback they've had, and you know, I think
that they're in a great position. I'll ask you if
the Jets fans, would you agree that there's a tremendous
(24:44):
amount of pressure on the on the staff, Robert Sala
and Joe Douglas, because if they don't if it doesn't,
if it doesn't work with this roster, with this regime.
I think that staff, you know, they understand the significance
of it, and they're all in, which I agree with.
But I think there's a lot of pressure on them.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Oh yeah, Aaron Rodgers will fire both of them after
the season if this doesn't work. I mean there'll be
that press conference him saying, hey, sorry, guys, I know
I'm the quarterback, but no, that's the way it is.
But they're set up to win either. They're set up
to win and win big. And I like everything going on,
and I'm really gonna start canvassing to announce the Jets
the champions of the off season of the NFL, because
the NFL is always in season. Just because we're not
(25:19):
playing games doesn't mean they're not. They're the champions of
the last six months. I think they should get to
hang a banner or get a Swell Trophy for it.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yeah, the Jets in the AFC, the Lions in the NFC.
Those are the two teams with the most type I
think any conference. Way.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Do we see them both in Vegas for the Super Bowl?
Jets Lions? Jets Lions.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
The Jets and or the Lions of the Super Bowl.
I will also dance off kicks.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
Yeah, George, that.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Would be amazing. I can't think of two more dars,
two more deserve franchise. I mean, the Lions have one
playoff win since nineteen fifty seven. I think it is.
I mean, that's that's an impossible thing to do, so
both of those franchises deserve.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Do you think they tried to include the rights to
Hard Knocks participation with the Denzel Mims trade.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
I would hope that I didn't think about that. That
would be really good, suck. I would like that'd be great.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
You can follow him on Twitter at Schultz Underscore Report.
That's at Schultz Underscore Report. Jordan is always buddy, appreciate
your time, and I'm gonna play back your comments about
the Jets on a loop for the next like month
and a half until we get to the season.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
I can't wait. And it's always the pleasure. Guys, thank
you so much.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
You gotta man great. Look at that now, now that's
an insider. Look how the guy who knows what he's
talking about there, I mean, Sarah met this guy knows.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Come on, he's a wizard.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
But look, but let's be honest. Of course Aaron Rodgers
is going to play more than one year. This was
not shocking today that he said, hey, to do one
years at the service. Why because remember what Aaron Rodgers wants.
He wants to be Lebron James. He came to New
York because that's where the opening was for him to
take his brand to the next level and set up
whatever he wants to do after his playing days are off, right,
(26:59):
same reason Lebron James chose the Lakers. I chose the
Lakers for their brand. We're gonna try to win at
the same time, I'm doing movies, I'm starting a production company,
all these things. This is where I am after basketball.
This is how I see myself because I'm gonna go
right from the NBA to being some kind of mogul
of some kind. And this is where you do it.
And Rogers is thinking the same thing. How is he
gonna be a mogul? Is he gonna be a guy
(27:20):
that has television shows? But now he is in the
hottest market, the number one market in the country. He's
the biggest star in the number one market. He chose
the Jets for their for the brand of New York.
And you're not gonna get enough done in one year, right,
He's chosen this for at least two years, maybe three,
because that's as long as he's playing at a decent level.
(27:41):
He's gonna keep playing, and he's gonna say I got
three years to figure it out. I would be surprised
if he's based in New York after and he winds
up doing TV shows, whatever he's gonna do after his career.
From there, he wants New York for the brand, and
a year is not nearly enough time. He needs a
couple of years. And I'm more than happy to win
back to back. I was just thinking one super Bowl,
but now I'm more than happy for back to back
(28:01):
super Bowls.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
Oh now we're going all in multiple, multiple super Bowls.
I dig that.
Speaker 6 (28:06):
Now.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
The roster is fun, and especially when you think about
the young skill position players around him offensive line. We'll
see what they put together in front of him. But
he's leaner, meaner, and you know, at least for now,
with the great tourist ye things he did all off
season and now coming into camp and getting people excited
(28:28):
again by talking about the team and not being a
short term plans. He's doing all the right things. Everything
he didn't do as he tried to get his way
out of Green Bay last year.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Who are you kidding?
Speaker 4 (28:42):
Man?
Speaker 1 (28:42):
You know it's going to be a dumpster fire. We
all know it's going to be a dumpster fire. Just stop.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
Just well. I think they'll put up some numbers, but
I think they will still lose.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Fourteen and three, fourteen, fourteen and three, fourteen and three.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
I mean, you're not going to be the Raiders. We
win the Cardinals and here's why.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Come on, we win the first fourteen game, clinch home
field all the way through, sit everybody the last three games,
and that's why we lose three games. Oh that's how,
that's how fourteen to three. Yeah, yeah, this is not
during the season we're gonna lose. Now, We're gonna win
fourteen to start the season, and then we get in clinched.
Then we get into hot take stuff on New York radio.
Why would they sit up down? They had the opportunity
(29:19):
to go undefeated, and then you have mahomes and press
conferences at the end of December going we're just gonna
have to go on the road to win that game.
It's gonna be difficult. And you know, New York is
a great team and there's a lot of stuff happening.
Maybe they're gonna follow Aaron Rodgers for quarterback next year.
I don't know, but this is gonna be sid It's
gonna be really difficult for us going on the road
like that in New York. It's very difficult. And that's
(29:39):
all we're gonna get. It's gonna be glorious good.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
It's not quite sure who you are impersonating there, but.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Now that's more than Patrick Mahomes from quarterback. That's that's
more how we speaks in quarterback. We'll get to that tonight.
I went I went out talking about Holmes is Kermit,
the frog, Arge cut, He's got he's got more of
That's that, boys, Yeah, it's a little bit more. That's
what I was doing. I was all right. Uh, at
the end of your first year, discovered credit cards automatically
(30:06):
double all the cash back you were And that's right,
everything you earned is doubled. Seriously see terms. Check it
out for yourself at discovered dot com. Slash match. Well,
let's check out what Steve di Seger has with what's
trending and the biggest result of the night is not
really a result. The Mets in the Red Sox have
been postponed till tomorrow. The game is suspended with the
Mets leading for to three in the fourth inning.
Speaker 7 (30:27):
Yeah, but they waited two hours before they told people
come back tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Hey, we can sell a lot of what we can
as a lot of concessions making sure people will stay
and stay around.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
By the way, what if you're the guy that buys
the cotton candy though, how dumb are you? Cotton Oh?
Speaker 1 (30:42):
It melted in the doesn't work. Gotten candy in the
rain doesn't work.
Speaker 7 (30:46):
The impersonation I honestly thought was ed Org run Just
for the record.
Speaker 4 (30:49):
That I need better.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
I've got Edy Oh living his best life. Man, he's
talking to U bikini clad girls on the beach. That
video is getting out there.
Speaker 4 (30:59):
You know.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
You know what Joe Burrow heathrew here sixty touchdowns from me,
Kai and Peppa on Young Godotball. It was really something.
I'll tell you what, you know, we won. I mean
I got fired two years later, which jows you. What
about when I won with Lsu I won? I won
that that's really.
Speaker 7 (31:15):
More The Foghorn Leghard impersonation right there, because if you
do a real at orgre On, it's deeper and more guttural,
and you can probably only do it once. Like the
Johnny Most impersonation, you'll be feeling it.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
You know me at order. I was America's interim coach
for a while. Then I had that long term gig,
then I got fired.
Speaker 7 (31:32):
H Well, to answer your question about the US women's
soccer team in their opener at the World Cup against Vietnam,
it's still just two nothing seventy second minute, even though
the Americans unofficially are out shooting them twenty two to
nothing and have two thirds of the possession in this game.
The next game of the tournament for the Americans against
(31:53):
the Netherlands, a top ten team, next Wednesday nights, and
that would be a rematch of the final from four
years ago. Then the third in group play, and all
the US group matches are in New Zealand. The third
game in this tournament August first, will be US against Portugal,
which is not ranked in the top twenty. Vietnam, which
has never been to a World Cup, is nowhere near
(32:14):
the top twenty. Have I mentioned they don't have a
shot yet tonight, and yet late first half the Americans
were only ahead one nothing. Then just before halftime Sophia
Smith from Stanford with his second goal of the evening.
Alex Morgan stopped on a penalty kick in the first half,
still just two nothing, and yes, Megan Rapino has come
off the bench.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Rose Leavelle as well, still waiting for Randa Donovan is
off the bench. Oh, everybody, everybody's coming off.
Speaker 7 (32:39):
They could use him charging down the right side like
against El Georgio.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Is off the bench. Yeah. Sure.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Speaking of great names in men soccer, we had one
of the greats of all time at Miami tonight in
his Major League Soccer debut, entering as a sub in
the fifty fourth minute. Cruz Azul against Miami tied the
game one one. But who set up for a free
kick late in the game, of course, Leono Massey not. Yes,
(33:09):
he scored with about a minute to go. Apple TV
with the call of that one. It was truly amazing
set up as it should be a two to one
game winner ninety fourth minute to beat Cruzuszuel. Carolina Panthers
signed the number one overall selection quarterback Bryce Young, American
Brian Harmon leads the open by five strokes to Major
(33:29):
League Baseball, The Dodgers are in the lead at Texas
six ' five in the top of the eighth. Braves
are winning again six to four at Milwaukee bottom of
the ninth. Shoheo Tani is pitching for the Angels, but
trailing two to one to Pittsburgh in the bottom of
the fourth. Already wins for Cincinnati and the Yankees. Tampa
Bay's back into a tie for first with the Orioles
in the Alias after shutting out Baltimore three to nothing.
(33:51):
Wins for San Diego and Colorado on the road, and
today the Cubs for to three winners against Saint Louis
US out shooting the Vietnam twenty three to nothing. Now
still no goals in the second f two zip seventy
fourth minute.

(36:34):
Horan with a goal in the seventy eighth minute to
give the USA a three to nothing lead. A nice
feed from Sophia Smith. The United States hoping to pour
this once. People aren't going, hey, you only scored three
goals against Vietnam. Still some time left discourse some more goals.
Speaker 4 (36:50):
Remember the spread was five and a half goals. Ah,
some early chances that Alex Morgan miss pk looming lar
right now for wagers, a couple of opportunities that have
been squandered. There was just a corner kick Repino brought
it in low, just you know, hit to the side
(37:11):
of the nets. So some opportunities looking to cash that ticket.
Smith and No, I did not bet the day.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
So we'll keep you updated. And there's lot much more
on the United States game, which should be over in
the next ten to twelve How many extra extra minutes? Yeah,
they were in the eighty third minute, so there's I
think there's at least gonna there's always at least three,
So it should be over in the next ten to
thirteen minutes or so. But I'm gonna give you a big,
bold prediction coming off the biggest story of the day. Look,
we watched Daniel Snyder is out of the NFL now
(37:41):
and Josh Harris, new owner for the Washington Commanders, had
a big press conference today and he vows to bring
Washington back to its glory days. And he actually said, hey,
you know it wasn't when they were the Washington Commanders.
They've actually started looking into things and they're going to
see how it goes. Of course, this alluding to a
name change, and it's a fade a complete at this
(38:02):
point that Washington Commanders will change their name. They don't
want anything to do with the Daniel Snyder era. Hey,
we're gonna name it Commanders. We're gonna say we're gonna
get rid of that. No one's gonna want to wear
commanders gear or anything else. That that's going to happen,
and probably sometime in the next year they will petition
to change their name. The NFL will unanimously approve it,
and we're gonna get a new name for the Watch,
(38:22):
whether the Colonels or the or or the the whatever.
It was going to be something some of the finalists.
We're gonna be But I'm gonna tell you this. I'm
gonna give you this big Bowl prediction. Just seeing Josh Harris,
who has bought this team, and he is a a
I don't want to say new b owner because the
guy owned the Sixers, but he's someone who's not part
of the sixty seventy year old people who buy sports
(38:43):
teams club. He is someone who has come in. He
is a younger guy with younger ideas and just hearing
him give you these big trigger words like glory days
research looking back, there's gonna be teams And I'll tell
you what. In the next five years, you are gonna
see teams get bought by owners who are going to
(39:04):
change their nicknames. And it's gonna be long time heritage
teams that have a big nickname. Hey, you know what,
we've looked into it and and our fans want to
name change. Whether it's gonna be we're gonna sell more
merchandise for whatever reason, there are going to be te Hey,
we don't really like the nickname we have, We're gonna
be something else. Now that is you know, there's no
sacred cows anymore, right, And this is something that's gonna
(39:26):
start that because you're gonna see other owners coming in
or even owners who own a team going, yeah, you know,
our name is not great. We're not selling a lot
of merch, is not a lot of connectivity between it
and the city we live in. We've done a lot
of research on it, so yeah, we're gonna change our
name sometime in the next year or plus. We're gonna
have research on it. We're gonna have a contest where
we're gonna but we're gonna change it. This is gonna
(39:47):
start that ball rolling and teams that aren't happy with
their nicknames are not selling us stuff. They're gonna change
your nicknames. You're gonna see more and more of this
over the next few years.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
Well, I mean, we've just it's the next evolution in
all of this. Right, You've had a lo lot of
names that were forced to be changed as the Washington
football team Commanders under their original title, right, I mean
that was long ago, and and Harris was a Washington native,
so he you know, he grew up around there. So
he talks about it with that sense of ownership literally
(40:18):
as a fan looking back on the glory days when
he was growing up and trying to restore that so
but yeah, you also it's no longer just Hey, I
want to put my stamp on things by changing the coach,
Been there, done that? Where do I affect commerce? Where
do I say? This is mine whole? And you know
(40:40):
we began a new era truly. Yeah, you change the name,
change the name, change that game and print cash. I
mean that's really what it comes down to. And for
teams that have struggled for forever and today, this is like,
you know, doing the burning of stuff in the trash
can all right, brings something symbolically that you got to
let go. Oh, we're gonna get rid of the rest
(41:02):
of the unsold merch and start over.
Speaker 1 (41:05):
Twitter At, how about a fresca Mike gets swollen dome.
Trust me, that's what's gonna happen. This is going to

taken over Leono MESSI enter Miami one one in the
(00:52):
eighty seventh minute. But more importantly, at least for right now,
the United States leading Vietnam just two do nothing at
halftime in their World Cup opener. I'm not saying I'm nervous,
Mike Carmen, because I do want to. I do understand that. Look,
this is a new team, a lot of new faces.
(01:12):
The first half of the first game is gonna be
a little different. They're not gonna be quite as sharp
as they're expected to be. But if we get to
the seventy fifth minute and it's kind of still like
this and the United States looks like they're having trouble,
then I'll be a little nervous because I you know,
we talked about it last night. The biggest thing is
gonna be scoring goals. You know, can the United States
(01:32):
when it gets not games like here? Obviously Vietnam they
can't even get the ball past midfield. So I'm not
too I'm not too concerned about this game. But overall,
when you talk about advancing, we need some people that
can put the ball in the back of the net.
And as you can see by the first half, is
Alex Morgan still elite? I don't know. Sophia Smith, who's
got two goals in the United States, may be the
most important player on the US women's national team because
(01:55):
somebody else is gonna have to score. Rapino's gonna play
limited minutes. Who knows how good Olex Morgan still really is.
She might be the most important player. She's got two
goals to start, so for her great start, everybody else.
Let's see how the second half goes.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Yeah, I mean Alex Morgan picking up where Saint Clair
left off yesterday with your favorite player with a terrible
penalty shot straight up the gut. So even if the
goalie guess is completely wrong, it's the length of her
body to stop it in the middle of the head.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Well, she'd do if she just fell to one side, Like,
that's what I would do. I would pick a side
and just fall to one side. I would have made
that save. I would just fall into that side.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Yeah, so you get to save there a couple of chances,
a couple of uh there was a ball in the
twenty eighth minute, and you know that was just wide,
a bit of an impossible angle for the shot that
that Morgan had taken. But you know, all in all,
you know, you're also playing against the defense that you're
you're packing it in like you're you're battling Derrick Henry
or all of the goal line.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
We know where it's going.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Yeah, No, so I mean you got to overcome that.
But a lot of dribble as opposed to connecting passes
and setups. We'll see what happens. Second half. Five shots
on goal to Vietnam zero I mean they had virtually
no possession. I'd love to see the top for the
first half, but you know, the second half different legs.
(03:19):
You get to go back in and you know, have
your vocal ranting session of what all went wrong? Because really,
I mean, you're a five and a half goal favorite.
Let's go yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Look, that's what. I don't want to panic too early
because everybody else wants to panic right now? Why nothing?
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Why not?
Speaker 4 (03:35):
It's hot takes theater.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Yeah, it's forty five minutes, and I want to give
them this the halftime. Let's settle down. Look again, a
lot of a lot of players making their debuts here,
and this is a little bit different. Even though you
get to the World Cup, it's still a little bit
different than the friendlies and the prep games going forward
all this stuff. So I want to give them a
little bit. I want to see if they're a little
bit sharper in the second half, see if they're able
(03:56):
to really start connecting on things. But the team, you're
just going to get better. I mean this is a
team like look, you saw the play by play in
the first half. Vietnam is just hoping to score a
goal in the world try to get one big run
you're just hoping to score a goal.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Well you saw it near the what was it the
ninth minute of extra time? How ridiculous was that? Like
ten and a half minutes an extra Yeah, but they
had one big run out and I was like, uh,
here you go, yeah there. Oh, it just takes one, right,
It takes one breakdown defensively, one misjudging of a ball
in the air, and and you got chaos ensus and
(04:32):
well that was swept away without much fanfare thereafter. But
you know, in the moment when you're you're not taking
control and not putting the ball in the back, and
that I can't say they didn't have control, They just
didn't finish.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
No, And again Vietnam is packing the box. It is.
It is a little more difficult, but this is still
you're talking about You're an eight and a half goal favorite, rightly,
five and a half, five and a half the favorite.
This is I mean, this is a this is a
pretty big deal. And in the end is gonna wind
up something like five or six nothing probably, And are
there some good things gonna be to take away from
(05:06):
this game? Yeah, But overall, the overall sense and what
you and I have talked about for a while, is
that this is not the same United States team coming
into this World Cup, that hey, we're just gonna roll
over everybody, and if we have one tough game along
the way, that's gonna be it. That's gonna be it
for us. Everything else should be pretty easy. This is
not that team. This is new players. Because we saw
(05:28):
that he in the Olympics. It was we weren't fast enough,
We got tired the older players. There's been no big
ramp up of the younger generation so far. They're all
getting used to things. Not having Mallory Swanson is a
really big deal because she's somebody would score a lot
of goals. That's gonna be the thing. And I see
this World Cup going where, look, no one's gonna dominate
(05:49):
the United States. But could I see a lot of
once you get to the bigger games in the knockout stage,
could I see a lot of games zero zero and
teams playing and maybe it being like an even kind
of game, and teams playing for penalties where anything can happen. Yeah,
I can see games where the United States gives up
a big run. When you have a team with an
elite scorer that that can hit the put the ball
(06:11):
in the back of the net. I can see them
losing one nothing and then the other team's packing the box.
So it's it's not about now, It's not about this
game against Vietnam, because, like I said, I don't know
how how many times Vietnam gonna get the ball passed
midfield in the second half, three times, four times?
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Yeah, inside thirty yards? Yeah, I think you got one.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Yeah yeah, And they're gonna get tired. And look, Rose
Levell is gonna come in the second half, and so
is Megan Rapino. So you have to think that their
leadership is going to settle things a little bit. And
Levell is just about getting her win back and and
and for Repino, you know she's gonna be in limited
minutes because this is a retirement tour. She's only gonna
play probably fifteen to twenty minutes a night. But you
know that that's where I expect to see a little
(06:48):
bit better sharper play from the United States. But this
ain't gonna be a cake walk. This ain't gonna be hey,
back to back to back to back. Look how great
we are. We have two teams that can compete in
the World Cup. That's not the case. Now. This is
a team that's gonna struggle to put the ball in
the back of the net. And as as rough as
first half as it was for Alex Morgan, who got
a complete break on Sophia Smith's second goal because she
(07:10):
was offside. I don't know what. Yeah, they were looking
at I'm like, oh, we're not getting out she's off side.
Oh no, we're getting the goal. Oh great, yay?
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Do nothing?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Did nothing?
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Yeah, It's like did they call the reset after the
ball got popped out? Yeah, or something. I don't know.
It's it's almost like you were playing make it take it. Yeah,
I got past the free throw and make it take it.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I just gonna just go.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
You guys get you know, you could be wherever you
need to be. Got the ball. We got back out there.
But I mean you talk about and and injuries are
part of the game for every nation, no question about it.
But you don't have Macario, who you thought might have been,
you know, ready to ramp up to this point. Uh
not their sour run press. Uh you mentioned Swanson. I
mean you're missing a lot of firepower. Uh So trying
(07:52):
to bring it together and the and the way it
works when you you have just a couple of weeks
together because of the NWSL you know that that's part
of it that plays in as well, Jason. I mean,
they have a couple of weeks together, especially when you're
integrating so many young players, it's not quite so simple
(08:13):
to get that flow. And again you're packing the box
Vietnam to do anything you can to just keep the
bleeding at a trickle here and then give yourself a
puncher's chance. So curious to see what second half brings
for us, but certainly an uneven kind of weird. I
mean Alex Morgan getting stopped out a penalty, I mean you,
(08:36):
I mean, I'm sure Steve Seger was like, hey, it's
coal jakes her too, that's right, and out that the
Seger jinks. By the way, at the end of.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Your first year, discover credit cards automatically double all the
cash back you are and that's right, everything you were

at discovered dot com slash match. So somebody that the
US women's national team could have used in the first
half is Leonel Messi, who of course is making his
MLS debut tonight Goodness in the League's Cup for Inner Miami.
(09:06):
In he comes into the game, he comes off the
bench and right away they give up the lead. No,
I can't believe it. He's overrated.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
Oh this cups minus took a hit.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
However, on a free kick probably about ten yards outside
the box middle of the field. Messi has just scored
in the ninety third minute to give Inner Miami the
two to one lead. Right now, he's taking a victory lap.
The stands are insane. It was some kind of again
(09:36):
about ten feet behind uh the eighteen, and it's a
left footed curl and they cut to David Beckham on
the sideline, who's like, yeah, how I did it? I mean,
this is this is Messi is going on. It's like
when Ripken played in twenty six thirty two and he's
high fiving all the fans around the field. That's what
Messi is doing right now. Hey, great getting horses.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
That's it. I mean that that's a beautiful shot to
the upper and west inside the upper leve post right there.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Man, that is wow.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
You can't you can't write it any better than that. Man.
And they're wearing pink uniforms in celebration of the Barbie release.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah well sure, sure, yeah. I gotta say though, of those,
I really don't like the callers. I don't like the
jersey with the it's too formal. What do you know
about faults? Don't I don't like the call and now
and now the game is over, MESSI scoring in the
final minute over inner, Miami wins already. Hey worth every
penny scrypted, worth every penny from all.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Look at that. I like that for every scripted. You
can't write it any better than that. One thing to
note though, that right before game time, remember how much
people were spending for like a block of four seats
you know, midfield whatever, Sure they get in in the
final fifteen minutes before kickoff was like one hundred and
fifty bucks.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yeah, but if you wanted to go, if you wanted
to sit next to David Beckham, it was you know,
a thousand.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Right, But if you just wanted to be in for
the moment, like it was hyped like it was the
most expensive thing ever and really it wasn't.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yeah, well, well but the priceless.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Sandwiches and shame on, dude, I bought yesterday. You could
have gotten in to see messy plates. Dude.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Ticket companies don't say, hey, come buy from us. They're
really low and there's no fees. No, they got a
kind of jacket.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
No, no, no. But but that's why I was cautioning against it,
because we did the story. I was like, all right,
this is some bad journalism because everybody likes the shocking
headline when reality was, if you just wanted to get
in this, you know, for the price of a cup.

United States still with a two to nothing lead over Vietnam.
In the fifty third minute, Lindsay Horan just had a
big chance shot wide. We'll keep you updated on this.
I know you're saying, why aren't there more goals? Well,
we've still got a lot of time to go on it. Meanwhile,
this has been a big week in the National Football League.
We saw Saquon Barkley say I could hold out. Jordan Schultz,
(13:16):
longtime NFL inside in front of the show, had that
scoop earlier this week, and now we're wondering are the
commanders going to change their names again, because Josh Harris
has said, hey, I want to bring the Glory Days backs.
Glory Days doesn't mean when we're the Washington Commanders. So
does this mean Redskins is coming back? Does this mean
a different name? I would gamble, Mike, I would give
(13:38):
you this bowl prediction. Within a year they have a
new nickname.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Well, we just track anything that might be trademark copyrighted,
or any negotiations of things that may have already been
squatted upon by local entrepreneurs.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
How do you feel if you're one of those people
that squatted on the possible name for so long? Commanders,
I don't need to pay for that anymore. Oh crap.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Well, I mean look, Magic was you know in his
interviews he was saying, how about they we call him
the Washington Lakers.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Maybe somebody who does know what they're gonna be called
joins us. Now, speaking of Jordan Schultz, he is here
with us now. He's on Twitter at Schultz Underscore Report.
That's at Schultz Underscore Report. He's on TikTok at real
Jordan Schultz. This is where Jordan you break news with
dances right on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Yeah, exactly exactly. That's right.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Sweet.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
So so you had so you went the Saquon Barkley
hold out, You had your own Saquon Barkley TikTok dance
to break that news earlier.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
No, I wish I I don't have that sway, And
I gotta say, I wish I knew what the commander's
potential new nicknames was, but I don't, So I don't
have the information for you.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Well, the big thing, and you tweeted this out a
little bit ago, is look, everybody, of course is relieved
and happy that Daniel Snyder is out of the NFL.
He's a bad owner, a bad guy. But you says
there there seems to be a unanimous sense that of relief.
A lot of people in the nfcast were going, we
kind of wish he was still there because he was
that bad an owner, Like hey, which he was still
(15:13):
that we could keep beating them.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
That's absolutely right. So there was the whole unanimous thank
god this guy is gone. He's a nightmary, he's a disaster.
He's an albatrot in the league. But in the NFDS
you have executives, you have teams saying, you know, selfishly,
it'd be great to keep him around. I had one
guy tell me he was that bad. And really, when
(15:36):
you talk about Daniel Snyder, I would say venture to say,
alongside James Dowen, those are the two worst owners in
North American forces over the last several decades. I mean,
they're just both horrendous, both no concept of humanity and
really no understanding morally compass wise to run a franchise,
(15:57):
just rutless. And I thought it was interesting that Josh
gris in front of you know, his his fan base
is we want to restore the Commanders or the Redskins
to be number one. At least you have an owner
and now that has a vision. That's something they simply
have not.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
Had called into a broadcast too, and bought the bar
free beer, so you know, being a man of the
people right away too.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
So absolutely so we'll definitely do a big that will
do big numbers in the DNV.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
I like it.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I was gonna say, all you needed to do was
whisper and hint that you might and you're that much
better off than the old guy just for saying, you
know what, I'd like to drink a beer with you
something He didn't even have to spend a dime.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
Seven percent, by the way, was the profit margins for
Daniel Snyder. So I know he gets the sixty million
dollar fines whatever it was, but he ended up making
over five well over five billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
So yeah, but I want to go back. This is
not going to slide here. You wait till the Knicks
are in the bleeping finals next to your Jordan Schultz.
Despite the fact that we have James Dolan as our owner.
You watch Jalen Brunson holding up the Larry O'Brian Trophy,
and I'm gonna call you and say, you watch that
television right now.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
If if that happens, then I will TikTok my way
off the app look at because yeah, listen, no, I
love the Dylan Brunton move. I I live in New
York and the Knicks have a phenomenal fan base. So selfishly,
as a basketball fan, I would love for that team
(17:30):
to be relevant. And obviously they are headed in the
right direction, so I will say that.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
All right, there we go. Okay, James Dolan here, here's it.
Not as bad as Daniel Snyder right there there? You
know that's that's Okay, that's we'll say.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
He's still on the metal stand. So you got that
going for you. All right, Let's go to the Giants
in Saquon Barkley, the interview and his quotes talking about
the potential of stepping away ten million bucks five hundred
thousand dollars a week once we get started. As much
as you may want to take a stand, that's an
awful lot to risk when you've only been able to
(18:02):
put one huge year here. Jordan, Well, how do you
think this ends?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I still think he'll play football next season. The tag
is ten million in change. He is, you know, arguably
their best player, certainly one of their most important players.
And you know last year over twelve hundred yards rushing,
double digit touchdowns, a second Pro Bowl, and he was
about a third of their offense. I mean, he really
is incredibly significant, and maybe more importantly is the morale
(18:32):
inside that building. And you know him and Daniel Jones
are enormously close. You know, he has a great relationship
with Andrew Thomas. He in many ways embodies what it
is to be a New York Giant. I'm frankly surprised,
guys that they did not get a long term extension done.
I thought Josh Jacobs and Tony Pollard were significant long shots,
(18:53):
but I really thought there was a pathway forward. For sake,
I want to get a deal done now. I do
think he'll play football next seas. I don't really know
what the alternative is. But I also think that will
be his last season with the Giants, because I don't
know how you really come back from this, you know.
I mean, he's he's twenty six, they'll be twenty seven,
and he understands very well that his earning window is now,
(19:16):
and so it's got to be enormously frustrating for him.
But I also understand the Giants' perspective to a degree,
although selfishly I would love to see him get paid
because I think he's earned it.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
You know, I get the Giants, though, see this, I
disagree with you, because they see they picked him second. Overall,
this is a new regime now that has no loyalty
to him, and they watched him be hurt and ineffective,
and here it is, and what is quote a contract here?
And he plays great? What's going to happen when we
give him that money? Right? So I kind of understand
that a little bit because that's the business of how
it goes in the NFL. May and they have said,
(19:49):
we made our choice. We gave Daniel Jones all kinds
of cash. We didn't give it to Saquon Barkley. You
can tell this is the way the team is going now.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
I mean it's four years, one hundred and sixty for
Daniel and and I was fortunate enough to, you know,
have that story. And I remember when it happened, thinking
this is going to impact Saquon because I thought it
would maybe not make it so there wasn't a deal,
but I thought it would it would minimize the chances
or minimize the amount of money because they made it
(20:19):
very clear that Daniel Jones was their top priority and
he's the quarterback and he should be. On the other side,
I'll say that sometimes you just you know, you almost
have to bite the bullet. I would go back to
several years back when the Giants believe that Justin Tuck
was probably done, and they were right. He went to
(20:41):
the Raiders, but a lot of Giant fans wanted Dustin
Tuck to just be a Giant for life because that's
what they felt like. And I think in Saquon's case,
there's some similarities. Now he doesn't have the Super Bowls,
he doesn't have that much equity, but in so many
ways he is embodying what it is to be a giant,
you know, alongside Daniels. So yeah, they jove Daniel. I
think the bigger, the bigger picture here. The bigger problem,
(21:04):
guys is the running back market, which is a whole
other can of worms, and you're seeing it really come
to fruition now, running backs, even great running backs, not
getting paid. We know Freme hunts on side, Leonard Fournettes
on signs, Dalvin Cookson signs. There's just so many good
players in the position and the league is simply not
paying them.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Now we see James Robinson's sign today, right, and Melvin
Gordon along with Cole Beasley back in the game trying
to bolster that receiving core there in New York.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Yeah, I think the Beasley signing is actually the most
interesting to me in that you know, he has the
connection with Brian day Ball. I know. I listen, I'm
going to tell you point blank, Dave All has been
trying to get him there for quite some time. This
this goes back to the combine this relationship or this courting,
(21:59):
and they obviously have the connection back to Buffalo. A
lot of this, a lot of Beasley being signed to
New York was Brian Dabele. And I will tell you
as well that as much as I love Dylan Hyatt,
who's going to play in the slot, Beasley's gonna have
a significant role in the slot as well. And he's
a very good football player. He's healthy, and I think
that was an underrated pickup. I like the move. I
(22:21):
don't know how much Robinson, what impact he has. It's
clearly an insurance policy. They draft Derek Gray out of Oklahoma,
who they like a lot.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
They have Gary brightwell there.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
I don't know what his future is, but obviously Robinson
is still young and did have a great rookie year
just two years ago.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
NFL insider Jordan Schultz our guest here the Jason Smith
Show with Mike Carmon. Now, the other big news today,
potentially Aaron Rodgers might be around for longer than this year.
He said one year would be a disservice to the Jets.
So now I'm not only am I thinking, Jordan, We're
winning the Super Bowl this year, I'm thinking back to back.
I'm thinking maybe a three peat for Aaron Rodgers, then
(22:57):
he walks away. That's kind of where I am right now.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
You think it's two thousand yards for Garrett.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Wilson, Oh, yeah, sure, easy, a.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Fifth MVP for Rogers. Yeah, I would say I've been
asked this for the last day as well about Rogers.
What's the what's the prognost? I think minimum two years,
max three. I don't see four. His cap hit is
more than one hundred and seven million dollars, you know,
next year, which is obviously an enormous number, and they're
going to have to restructure. But I will I would
(23:28):
be surprised if he doesn't play at least two. I mean,
they're set up really well. And I'm not just saying
this is your jet stand. They're set up really well.
Wilson's tremendous. Obviously, they have the running backs, pretty good
offensive line, terrific young defense. So he comes into a
great situation. And they also went out and got Allens Are,
they went out and got Nicole Hartman. So I think
(23:49):
there's a really good chance he played at least two
years there. And that division is tough. I mean, Buffalo
should be good, Miami should be good, and England should
be better. But I think that's an eleven twelve and
football team. I think they have all the pieces.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
How soon do I get tired of Jason's excitement about
the Jets? No, no, no, let let's let's he's a
top season insider. He knows these answers.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Let's just take a couple of minutes and abbreviate that
moment that Jordan Schultz is talking about all this success
for the Jets.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Well, he predicted regular season for success.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
You know, the last time I had any kind of
any kind of regular season success talk on the radio
about the Jets.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Come on, Mike, the Jets and Knicks. I mean, both
of them have not exactly had a couple of great decades,
but they had their first quarterback, you know, I mean
with respect to Sanchez, you know Pennington, I mean, it's
the best quarterback they've had, and you know, I think
that they're in a great position. I'll ask you if
the Jets fans, would you agree that there's a tremendous
(24:44):
amount of pressure on the on the staff, Robert Sala
and Joe Douglas, because if they don't if it doesn't,
if it doesn't work with this roster, with this regime.
I think that staff, you know, they understand the significance
of it, and they're all in, which I agree with.
But I think there's a lot of pressure on them.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Oh yeah, Aaron Rodgers will fire both of them after
the season if this doesn't work. I mean there'll be
that press conference him saying, hey, sorry, guys, I know
I'm the quarterback, but no, that's the way it is.
But they're set up to win either. They're set up
to win and win big. And I like everything going on,
and I'm really gonna start canvassing to announce the Jets
the champions of the off season of the NFL, because
the NFL is always in season. Just because we're not
(25:19):
playing games doesn't mean they're not. They're the champions of
the last six months. I think they should get to
hang a banner or get a Swell Trophy for it.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yeah, the Jets in the AFC, the Lions in the NFC.
Those are the two teams with the most type I
think any conference. Way.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Do we see them both in Vegas for the Super Bowl?
Jets Lions? Jets Lions.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
The Jets and or the Lions of the Super Bowl.
I will also dance off kicks.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
Yeah, George, that.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Would be amazing. I can't think of two more dars,
two more deserve franchise. I mean, the Lions have one
playoff win since nineteen fifty seven. I think it is.
I mean, that's that's an impossible thing to do, so
both of those franchises deserve.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Do you think they tried to include the rights to
Hard Knocks participation with the Denzel Mims trade.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
I would hope that I didn't think about that. That
would be really good, suck. I would like that'd be great.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
You can follow him on Twitter at Schultz Underscore Report.
That's at Schultz Underscore Report. Jordan is always buddy, appreciate
your time, and I'm gonna play back your comments about
the Jets on a loop for the next like month
and a half until we get to the season.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
I can't wait. And it's always the pleasure. Guys, thank
you so much.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
You gotta man great. Look at that now, now that's
an insider. Look how the guy who knows what he's
talking about there, I mean, Sarah met this guy knows.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Come on, he's a wizard.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
But look, but let's be honest. Of course Aaron Rodgers
is going to play more than one year. This was
not shocking today that he said, hey, to do one
years at the service. Why because remember what Aaron Rodgers wants.
He wants to be Lebron James. He came to New
York because that's where the opening was for him to
take his brand to the next level and set up
whatever he wants to do after his playing days are off, right,
(26:59):
same reason Lebron James chose the Lakers. I chose the
Lakers for their brand. We're gonna try to win at
the same time, I'm doing movies, I'm starting a production company,
all these things. This is where I am after basketball.
This is how I see myself because I'm gonna go
right from the NBA to being some kind of mogul
of some kind. And this is where you do it.
And Rogers is thinking the same thing. How is he
gonna be a mogul? Is he gonna be a guy
(27:20):
that has television shows? But now he is in the
hottest market, the number one market in the country. He's
the biggest star in the number one market. He chose
the Jets for their for the brand of New York.
And you're not gonna get enough done in one year, right,
He's chosen this for at least two years, maybe three,
because that's as long as he's playing at a decent level.
(27:41):
He's gonna keep playing, and he's gonna say I got
three years to figure it out. I would be surprised
if he's based in New York after and he winds
up doing TV shows, whatever he's gonna do after his career.
From there, he wants New York for the brand, and
a year is not nearly enough time. He needs a
couple of years. And I'm more than happy to win
back to back. I was just thinking one super Bowl,
but now I'm more than happy for back to back
(28:01):
super Bowls.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
Oh now we're going all in multiple, multiple super Bowls.
I dig that.
Speaker 6 (28:06):
Now.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
The roster is fun, and especially when you think about
the young skill position players around him offensive line. We'll
see what they put together in front of him. But
he's leaner, meaner, and you know, at least for now,
with the great tourist ye things he did all off
season and now coming into camp and getting people excited
(28:28):
again by talking about the team and not being a
short term plans. He's doing all the right things. Everything
he didn't do as he tried to get his way
out of Green Bay last year.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Who are you kidding?
Speaker 4 (28:42):
Man?
Speaker 1 (28:42):
You know it's going to be a dumpster fire. We
all know it's going to be a dumpster fire. Just stop.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
Just well. I think they'll put up some numbers, but
I think they will still lose.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Fourteen and three, fourteen, fourteen and three, fourteen and three.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
I mean, you're not going to be the Raiders. We
win the Cardinals and here's why.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Come on, we win the first fourteen game, clinch home
field all the way through, sit everybody the last three games,
and that's why we lose three games. Oh that's how,
that's how fourteen to three. Yeah, yeah, this is not
during the season we're gonna lose. Now, We're gonna win
fourteen to start the season, and then we get in clinched.
Then we get into hot take stuff on New York radio.
Why would they sit up down? They had the opportunity
(29:19):
to go undefeated, and then you have mahomes and press
conferences at the end of December going we're just gonna
have to go on the road to win that game.
It's gonna be difficult. And you know, New York is
a great team and there's a lot of stuff happening.
Maybe they're gonna follow Aaron Rodgers for quarterback next year.
I don't know, but this is gonna be sid It's
gonna be really difficult for us going on the road
like that in New York. It's very difficult. And that's
(29:39):
all we're gonna get. It's gonna be glorious good.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
It's not quite sure who you are impersonating there, but.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Now that's more than Patrick Mahomes from quarterback. That's that's
more how we speaks in quarterback. We'll get to that tonight.
I went I went out talking about Holmes is Kermit,
the frog, Arge cut, He's got he's got more of
That's that, boys, Yeah, it's a little bit more. That's
what I was doing. I was all right. Uh, at
the end of your first year, discovered credit cards automatically
(30:06):
double all the cash back you were And that's right,
everything you earned is doubled. Seriously see terms. Check it
out for yourself at discovered dot com. Slash match. Well,
let's check out what Steve di Seger has with what's
trending and the biggest result of the night is not
really a result. The Mets in the Red Sox have
been postponed till tomorrow. The game is suspended with the
Mets leading for to three in the fourth inning.
Speaker 7 (30:27):
Yeah, but they waited two hours before they told people
come back tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Hey, we can sell a lot of what we can
as a lot of concessions making sure people will stay
and stay around.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
By the way, what if you're the guy that buys
the cotton candy though, how dumb are you? Cotton Oh?
Speaker 1 (30:42):
It melted in the doesn't work. Gotten candy in the
rain doesn't work.
Speaker 7 (30:46):
The impersonation I honestly thought was ed Org run Just
for the record.
Speaker 4 (30:49):
That I need better.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
I've got Edy Oh living his best life. Man, he's
talking to U bikini clad girls on the beach. That
video is getting out there.
Speaker 4 (30:59):
You know.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
You know what Joe Burrow heathrew here sixty touchdowns from me,
Kai and Peppa on Young Godotball. It was really something.
I'll tell you what, you know, we won. I mean
I got fired two years later, which jows you. What
about when I won with Lsu I won? I won
that that's really.
Speaker 7 (31:15):
More The Foghorn Leghard impersonation right there, because if you
do a real at orgre On, it's deeper and more guttural,
and you can probably only do it once. Like the
Johnny Most impersonation, you'll be feeling it.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
You know me at order. I was America's interim coach
for a while. Then I had that long term gig,
then I got fired.
Speaker 7 (31:32):
H Well, to answer your question about the US women's
soccer team in their opener at the World Cup against Vietnam,
it's still just two nothing seventy second minute, even though
the Americans unofficially are out shooting them twenty two to
nothing and have two thirds of the possession in this game.
The next game of the tournament for the Americans against
(31:53):
the Netherlands, a top ten team, next Wednesday nights, and
that would be a rematch of the final from four
years ago. Then the third in group play, and all
the US group matches are in New Zealand. The third
game in this tournament August first, will be US against Portugal,
which is not ranked in the top twenty. Vietnam, which
has never been to a World Cup, is nowhere near
(32:14):
the top twenty. Have I mentioned they don't have a
shot yet tonight, and yet late first half the Americans
were only ahead one nothing. Then just before halftime Sophia
Smith from Stanford with his second goal of the evening.
Alex Morgan stopped on a penalty kick in the first half,
still just two nothing, and yes, Megan Rapino has come
off the bench.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Rose Leavelle as well, still waiting for Randa Donovan is
off the bench. Oh, everybody, everybody's coming off.
Speaker 7 (32:39):
They could use him charging down the right side like
against El Georgio.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Is off the bench. Yeah. Sure.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Speaking of great names in men soccer, we had one
of the greats of all time at Miami tonight in
his Major League Soccer debut, entering as a sub in
the fifty fourth minute. Cruz Azul against Miami tied the
game one one. But who set up for a free
kick late in the game, of course, Leono Massey not. Yes,
(33:09):
he scored with about a minute to go. Apple TV
with the call of that one. It was truly amazing
set up as it should be a two to one
game winner ninety fourth minute to beat Cruzuszuel. Carolina Panthers
signed the number one overall selection quarterback Bryce Young, American
Brian Harmon leads the open by five strokes to Major
(33:29):
League Baseball, The Dodgers are in the lead at Texas
six ' five in the top of the eighth. Braves
are winning again six to four at Milwaukee bottom of
the ninth. Shoheo Tani is pitching for the Angels, but
trailing two to one to Pittsburgh in the bottom of
the fourth. Already wins for Cincinnati and the Yankees. Tampa
Bay's back into a tie for first with the Orioles
in the Alias after shutting out Baltimore three to nothing.
(33:51):
Wins for San Diego and Colorado on the road, and
today the Cubs for to three winners against Saint Louis
US out shooting the Vietnam twenty three to nothing. Now
still no goals in the second f two zip seventy
fourth minute.

Well make it three nothing, United States over Vietnam. Lindsey
(36:34):
Horan with a goal in the seventy eighth minute to
give the USA a three to nothing lead. A nice
feed from Sophia Smith. The United States hoping to pour
this once. People aren't going, hey, you only scored three
goals against Vietnam. Still some time left discourse some more goals.
Speaker 4 (36:50):
Remember the spread was five and a half goals. Ah,
some early chances that Alex Morgan miss pk looming lar
right now for wagers, a couple of opportunities that have
been squandered. There was just a corner kick Repino brought
it in low, just you know, hit to the side
(37:11):
of the nets. So some opportunities looking to cash that ticket.
Smith and No, I did not bet the day.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
So we'll keep you updated. And there's lot much more
on the United States game, which should be over in
the next ten to twelve How many extra extra minutes? Yeah,
they were in the eighty third minute, so there's I
think there's at least gonna there's always at least three,
So it should be over in the next ten to
thirteen minutes or so. But I'm gonna give you a big,
bold prediction coming off the biggest story of the day. Look,
we watched Daniel Snyder is out of the NFL now
(37:41):
and Josh Harris, new owner for the Washington Commanders, had
a big press conference today and he vows to bring
Washington back to its glory days. And he actually said, hey,
you know it wasn't when they were the Washington Commanders.
They've actually started looking into things and they're going to
see how it goes. Of course, this alluding to a
name change, and it's a fade a complete at this
(38:02):
point that Washington Commanders will change their name. They don't
want anything to do with the Daniel Snyder era. Hey,
we're gonna name it Commanders. We're gonna say we're gonna
get rid of that. No one's gonna want to wear
commanders gear or anything else. That that's going to happen,
and probably sometime in the next year they will petition
to change their name. The NFL will unanimously approve it,
and we're gonna get a new name for the Watch,
(38:22):
whether the Colonels or the or or the the whatever.
It was going to be something some of the finalists.
We're gonna be But I'm gonna tell you this. I'm
gonna give you this big Bowl prediction. Just seeing Josh Harris,
who has bought this team, and he is a a
I don't want to say new b owner because the
guy owned the Sixers, but he's someone who's not part
of the sixty seventy year old people who buy sports
(38:43):
teams club. He is someone who has come in. He
is a younger guy with younger ideas and just hearing
him give you these big trigger words like glory days
research looking back, there's gonna be teams And I'll tell
you what. In the next five years, you are gonna
see teams get bought by owners who are going to
(39:04):
change their nicknames. And it's gonna be long time heritage
teams that have a big nickname. Hey, you know what,
we've looked into it and and our fans want to
name change. Whether it's gonna be we're gonna sell more
merchandise for whatever reason, there are going to be te Hey,
we don't really like the nickname we have, We're gonna
be something else. Now that is you know, there's no
sacred cows anymore, right, And this is something that's gonna
(39:26):
start that because you're gonna see other owners coming in
or even owners who own a team going, yeah, you know,
our name is not great. We're not selling a lot
of merch, is not a lot of connectivity between it
and the city we live in. We've done a lot
of research on it, so yeah, we're gonna change our
name sometime in the next year or plus. We're gonna
have research on it. We're gonna have a contest where
we're gonna but we're gonna change it. This is gonna
(39:47):
start that ball rolling and teams that aren't happy with
their nicknames are not selling us stuff. They're gonna change
your nicknames. You're gonna see more and more of this
over the next few years.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
Well, I mean, we've just it's the next evolution in
all of this. Right, You've had a lo lot of
names that were forced to be changed as the Washington
football team Commanders under their original title, right, I mean
that was long ago, and and Harris was a Washington native,
so he you know, he grew up around there. So
he talks about it with that sense of ownership literally
(40:18):
as a fan looking back on the glory days when
he was growing up and trying to restore that so
but yeah, you also it's no longer just Hey, I
want to put my stamp on things by changing the coach,
Been there, done that? Where do I affect commerce? Where
do I say? This is mine whole? And you know
(40:40):
we began a new era truly. Yeah, you change the name,
change the name, change that game and print cash. I
mean that's really what it comes down to. And for
teams that have struggled for forever and today, this is like,
you know, doing the burning of stuff in the trash
can all right, brings something symbolically that you got to
let go. Oh, we're gonna get rid of the rest
(41:02):
of the unsold merch and start over.
Speaker 1 (41:05):
Twitter At, how about a fresca Mike gets swollen dome.
Trust me, that's what's gonna happen. This is going to
be the one that opens the door to it. Twitter At,
