Greetings and welcome inside. Today is a new day The
Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon.

Just start singing the Booblz song.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Today is a new day to new day.

Met You yet, cause it's on like in every store
you go into.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
The live version with the food fighters is pretty damn good.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
It's like the official song of every store in the
mall that you would go in, like Sophora or Yankee
Can or you know something like that.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Because I wander into Yankee Can, I.

Speaker 4 (01:19):
So you had a better day. Did you just celebrate
that punt return repeatedly?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Do you know how many times I watch that? Any
time I watch that Garrett Wilson touchdown too, I'm just
so much more impressed with that Wilson touchdown every time
I see it, just having the strong hand but the
soft handed just deaden the ball and then tip it
to himself. I mean, he's a flipping super duperstar, super
duper duperstar. But let me tell you this something I
think you know about me over the last ten years.
(01:47):
The news today that we thought was coming last night,
Aaron Rodgers done for the season with a torn achilles.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Yeah, we already turned that page last week. It happened
last night.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
And and for today, Robert Sala's head coach, you know,
giving the somber news, had to say, Okay, it happened.
We're moving on and our guy is Justin Herbert, who
we've traded for the chart. Now our guy is Zach Wilson.
Speaker 5 (02:12):
We are going to look through some things, but I
do want to make it very clear to Zach's our quarterback.
We've got a lot of faith in Zach. We're really
excited about his opportunity. But we're rolling with Zach and
I'm excited for this, excited for him and like I said,
this opportunity that he's going to get.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Oh no, we shuck again. Here's the thing for all
you guys, I have a pretty good well how do
I say this. I have a pretty good aptitude for
dealing with bad news and moving on and moving forward
rather quick.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Well with your sporting times, Yeah, well, because a lifetime.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
I've had nothing but that. I've had nothing but bad
news with the Mets and the Jets. Yeah, how do
we move forward? Let's move forward. So I'm a mystery team,
street team. So I'm past the injury. You know, I
was upset last night, but the Jets won and I'm
looking ahead. The season doesn't stop. No one stopped the old.
(03:11):
The old added you here all the time. No one
feels sorry for you, of course, but they want to
beat your brains in next the seasons. The season's not
gonna stop. It's going on. We won our game. We
look great in all aspects of the game except for quarterback.
Obviously we lose Aaron Rodgers, but the offensive line played well.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Look, they ran.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Well, they fit well. Here here's the thing, you know
what you want to get into that those plays where
Aaron Rodgers got hit, those are supposed to be quick
hit plays.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
He held he should have got rid of the ball again,
got hurt.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
He didn't throw the ball. He held onto the ball
too much. So he don't sit here and say, oh,
the offensive noo. Those were plays that were designed to
be quick hits, and he held out of the ball.
The offensive line is still. They ran for one hundred
and seventy five yards last night on the Bills. I'm
pretty sure the offensive line one play though, but that
was mean. Didn't happen. Nobody blocked for him.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
It's like the court does the win Dad, the seal
that Vera Tucker put on, and and they put on
on the outside with Beckton and he was able to
cut through.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Yeah, when he gets into the linebackers, he does the rest.
But so hey, just go by, just go by, just
go by. So just stop with that. I have a
pretty good disposition in moving forward because I was upset,
but they won, And what do I gotta do? I
had a beer and I took a shower, because that's
how he do it in the NBA. So I'm pasted it.
(04:35):
I'm Jerry and Jerry maguire. He finds out he's fired.
He gets a little woozy for like a few seconds,
and then says, Okay, I'm past it. I want all
my clients back. Now that's where I am. Okay, Now
I'm ready because we won the game. We got a
really good team. I'm excited. We got young players that
are coming back. Breese Hall looks like he's one hundred percent,
and that's awesome. He could wind up being the best
(04:56):
running back in the NFL this year. Certainly, there's not
any guys that look better than him week one. So yeah,
I'm pretty flipping excited and I'm ready to go forward.
It happens, it sucks, right, But here's the best part
is about being a Jets fan all but Jason, you're
not grieving. You're probably out of control. No, no, no,
Jets fans, you start with acceptance, all four of them.
You start at phase three. You don't go phase one
(05:17):
of denial, Phase two of anger, no, you started phase three.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Shrug because all right, we've been here.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
You're dealing with it your whole life, so you accept
I'm already I started phase three. I jump past phase
one and phase two.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
No, no, we watched I started phase three.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
I mean, you know you were last night. You were
uh Ralph Wigam in You Choose Me episode.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
You can see his heartbreak but here, but I had him,
like I said, I had a few minutes and then
now I'm going forward, and then you lost your mind.
And now I'm going to wish.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
I had videotape in the hallways. I mean, if we
can get that security that.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Video of me when I called Gibson's punt return for
a touchdown. It's one of those things I retire.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
For pretty the windows to shatter, because I'm sitting here
in a sound proof room, I can hear it.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I blacked out for like twenty seconds. I don't know
what happened to my drink. I don't know what I yelled.
I know I was banging on the glass. It was
so flipping exciting. But so I'm past it. And now
you heard Robert Sala and yeah, Aaron Rodgers' injury is
still the biggest story.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
And sure they didn't sleep, and you know it's it.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Was kind of fun today to kind of see the
Wow Brady, Chad, Henny maybe and and Philip Rivers and Hey,
where can I get all these greatest quarterbacks of the
two thousands all in one place for one low, low price? Well,
you want to come to Flora Park to watch the
Jets because they're going to try out a lot of
these guys coming in. It's not holl of notes. It's
(06:40):
the guys from from uh yeah, yeah, yeah, nickel back
through the two thousand? No, no, no, no, Can I
get all these songs in one Where can I get
all these washed up quarterbacks in one great place? But
what's funny is that Matt Ryan. You see all the
names go up on the screen. Matt you see the
highlight it's behind him at twenty.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Eight to three, comes drifting across.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Maybe it's Matt Ryan. And then as a play by
play of Matt Ryan, the other guy says, ah, so
many great names that you've probably forgot about. You know
who's not in the league anymore, Carson Wentz. And Carson
Wentz his name lights up coming up the screen when they.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Would do that and then they say it's a picture
of his statue. Yeah, all fuck, but you go through
all of that, right, and this is my day. I
got offline for a bit, went for a nice walk,
dog and eye and we did, you know, coffee on
the porch, just listening to music and just getting away
from the world. And then I finally get online a
(07:36):
little bit later, right eleanor my older daughter comes downstairs
and like, ah, let's have breakfast. And it's like, as
she's cooking and we're talking, I go to scroll on
X in my social media and one after another ascribing
day everybody in our business analyst says the Jets should
get tom Brady. So I finally had my George Carlin
(07:59):
breaking point. Tom Brady.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Tom Brady says, Tom haf tom Brady's great, you know what,
blank tom Brady. But he's kind of skinny now to
play quarterback in the NFL. But it was the all right,
captain obvious, let me send you a hat so you.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Could just wear it as you make this take. He
is head and shoulders, even in his emaciated stage. Sure,
every other quarterback that we're talking, we gave you some
bigger shoulder pads. You need to look good out there.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Tom.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
He kind of looked like he was wearing the little
shoulder pads when he was on the field the other day,
didn't he. But we go through the list of available
quarterbacks that you said, we're on that infomercial you were
watching late last night.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
And every one of these names, but every one of
them face kingum wow.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
To a team though.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
But you're going through and it's like this guy Tom Brady,
and I go front page of Yahoo. They should get
Tom Brady over on you know, New York Boasts. They
should get Tom Brady's like, no kidding, people that don't
know anything, Yes, make the nod, say call Don ye okay,
and then let's talk about the real solutions that may
(09:10):
be available to the Jets. Yes, that's the pie in
the sky if everything and candy and rainbows and you
can have a time turner and make everything work. But
the reality is you're picking from a bunch of all serands.
Most of them are in a broadcast booth who are
out of the league and have been out of the league,
(09:30):
or guys that are the third quarterbacks that even their
sorry teams don't want. Because I saw the thought piece
looks they should trade for Sam Donald, Like, yes, San
Francisco is gonna give away Sam Donald.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
You're you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
Like we talked about it last night in terms of
backup quarterback, like it was just an asinine exercise. I'm like,
all right, I get it. You have a column to
do and you have like fourteen writers and producers in
a room, and.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
That's what the best they gave you.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Move. I can't tell you, and I'm being honest, I
can't tell you how many people, how many analysts what
I've watched today and saw today, how many people that
have played football that are on TV that passed themselves
off as analysts, are just stupid. Because everybody who's got this, Hey,
the Jets should go get your stupid And I don't
like to, but you're stupid because you're just looking for
(10:21):
an angle that doesn't make any sense. As you said,
these guys are all unemployed for a reason, whether they're
at the end of their career and they retired or
they're let go and no team has signed them because
they stink. If you think the Jets would be better off
signing one of these guys, I'm sorry, you're stupid. If
you think sticking with Zach Wilson's a mistake, I'm sorry,
you're stupid. Right. I'm not a big Zach Wilson fan.
(10:44):
You know what I said about but I've never said
anything bad about him on the radio though. No, I'm
not az Zach, but I'm not a Zach Wilson fan.
But this is somebody who now has been in the
system knows the offense is gonna have Aaron Rodgers over
his shoulder helping him. You're telling me, Matt Ryan coming in.
These guys all stunk, they stunk. The Jets. Only way
forward is Zack Wilson. Yes, they're gonna sign one of
(11:06):
these guys to need a backup because you can't sit
here and say, well, Tim Boyle, who they just got,
is gonna sit around and he's gonna be your No,
they're gonna go get somebody because they have to get
a body to come in and learn and be a
veteran backup. But to say that somebody else, somebody else
who don't give me sticking with Zach Wilson, say give
me a name, Give me a name that you're gonna
go out there and say that's a guy that's a guy.
That's a guy that's gonna be No, you're stupid. You're
(11:28):
stupid because you're either just want to pile on Jets,
wile pile on Zach Wilson, who, oh, by the way,
had some pretty nice throws last night. The interception was bad,
all right, I'm not gonna say it's not. But they
won the game. He let him down to the points
when they needed it, and they won. And he came
in with no reps on the fourth play of the
game when you know that the stadium is ready to
flip and just explode. Look at this. All six months
(11:51):
of Rogers Rogers, Rather it just went out the window.
And you know what, it would have been easy for
the Jets to turtle and lose that game, easy for
Zack Wilson to just suck. You know what. They won
and he didn't play half bet Was he great?
Speaker 2 (12:03):
No?
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Was he the reason why they won? No? But to
come in and not lose the game and win, that's
a w right. He's the guy that's been in the offense.
He's the guy that they've they've invested it. He's the guy.
If you're gonna win, he's gonna be the quarterback if
you say somebody else, it's great to just say, oh,
the Jets are done. No, No, let's advance things right,
let's advancings a little bit. Who do they get? No,
the answer is right there. That's the only answer, is
(12:25):
Zach Wilson. Do I love the answer? No, but it's
the best answer then case Keenum or Matt Ryan or
Philip Rivers, who's been coaching high school football. That's a
couple of year. It's a bet there's no answers to
Tom Brady's not coming back to play for the Jets.
I'd love to see it. I love the photoshop that
Frauford sent me with him in the twelve jurf That's
that's not happening.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
Here's your eighteen second analysis of Tom Brady. And that's
all it deserves, right. The rest of Skinny called Tom
Brady and you can do this, and this would solve this.
And you know he runs a different offense than Aaron Rodgers,
so you would have to retro fit this and they're
not his guy, like, shut up, shut up, mental Well,
(13:02):
I don't know, it's too early in the night to
use the term. I think that I want to there,
So it's just a waste of time. And all of
these other guys, Yeah, they're warm bodies in the event
that Zach Wilson is absolutely atrocious and it's an untenable situation.
But if you can run and play out like you
did last night. Look, Josh Allen's not going to be
there every week to serve up a couple of turnovers
(13:24):
for you. Hot warm four A four four, not a couple,
it's a four.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
It's like buying a couple is two four.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Hoogie beer comes in a four pack, but.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
A couple is two four four twice as many. It's
twice as many, twice as many. Solving problems you way,
do you see how many turnovers Dak Prescott has next week? Yeah,
but Jordan White had already made like a three hundred
million dollars three fifty dollars. Good for him here three percent.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
He said that to the girls when they talked about
They asked me about the game.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
It's like, what was the highlight? I go, guy earned
himself an extra quarter million dollars.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Zach tame. It's Zach attack. That's it, Zak attack. Going forward.
I'm past it. We're going to the playoffs. It's all there.
It's all happening, Zach.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
It's all right. You went a little further than I thought.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Oh we're going to the playoffs. I take still still
got a great team, but we have time for that.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (21:37):
Heart Baboon Heart.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
So the general consensus and narrative today is, oh, Aaron
Rodgers is out and the Jets are done. You know what?
Stop with that? Now? Is the super Bowl something that
I think the Jets can win? No, you have to
be have a great quarterbacks. Really wait for quarterback with
a super Bowl. But you think the Jets are done,
(22:04):
forget it. This is absolutely a playoff team. This is
a ten win team that is going to get in
the playoffs because lost in the mix of all of
Aaron Rodgers. Forget it. You just won opening week. People
are forgetting You just won opening week where you had
to have your backup quarterback jump in cold after four snaps.
You just beat a team that is a super Bowl favorite,
(22:26):
that was favored to win this game. He was doing
every one of the best quarterbacks in the game and
all this stuff, and they were coming in the Bills
are gonna win this game. And the Jets won this game.
They could have turtled, They could have easily quit after
losing Rodgers, because for six months it's been eight is
gonna do it for us. Eight is gonna do it.
Eight's gonna do it. And now you realize very quickly
(22:47):
after the game begins, you're not gonna have Aaron Rodgers.
And here comes Zach Wilson, the scourge of New York
the last couple of years, who couldn't keep his job
as a number two pick, that had to go out
and get Aaron Rodgers. And the Jets still won that
bleeping game. Is you know why, because the Jets are
a really good team. Their defense is fantastic. Four turnovers
they forced for turnovers they.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
Forced, no, no, no, don't. Two of those were not
four they held the two of those were jump balls
down the center of the field.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
And who got him. He got him, He got them,
but he didn't force any they they for. He threw
it up.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
He threw the footballs. I'm not saying on the run
he decided to.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Turn forced is the wrong word for turn in my opinion,
force them for they always forced turnovers because no one
tries to turn the ball over. I mean, it looks
like the attempts to do it was worth two take
this him on the run being able to make plays,
even the butt fumble again and we ran into his
own player. Hey, I'm gonna try to make this play. Well,
you know what. Then he got stuck by a defensive
(23:49):
and the turnovers four turnovers. Really good.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
Play on the third interception was really good.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
They held the Bills to sixteen points. Right, it's one
of the best offenses in the NFL. They drafted Dalton
and k to be the next Travis Kelsey. This is
gonna be James Cook is gonna take over better running
back than they've had the last couple of years with Singletary.
Before that when they had Zach Moss and the Jets
defense played great. Breise Hall showed you he is back
has the form that he had when he was gonna
be the runaway rookie of the year last year. Oh,
(24:16):
by the way, Garrett Wilson, who was the Rookie of
the Year last year, showing you he's still great. You
have Dalvin Cook. The Jets are gonna run both of
these guys twenty times a game. They're gonna play great defense.
They're gonna win ten. You're not gonna score points now, no,
of course they will. They'll be because sixteen is gonna
be enough to win games. Sixteen is gonna be enough
with that defense. Early on, it's a tough schedule and
(24:37):
it may be a little bumpy, but once you get
out a week four. They won Week one, which is
the biggest thing because you know, once you're staring zero
to two in the face, because looking at the Cowboys coming.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Up there, and we know the UN's right.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Once you're staring owing to okay, then things get out
of control. You win week one. That buys you a
couple of weeks to get things back going. You're not
thinking about winning the division. And now we mentioned this
last night. The expectations are no longer on the team
because when you have to play with expectations, some teams
can do it, some teams can't. I don't know if
the Jets could have played with expectations. They said they
were ready to, but I don't know how it's really
(25:07):
gonna go. That's a that's a huge fish bowl you
were in, And I told you, whenever the Jets have success,
they have trouble handling it. Would they be able to
play with expectations? Man, I don't know. Now they don't
have it. No one expects them to do anything, and
they can rally behind that in the locker room. I'm
telling you it's a different group Jets of seasons past,
Other teams not as mentally strong would have lost that
game last night. They would have played hard, but they
(25:28):
would eventually said, this game's not working for us. Our
backs are broken, We're not gonna win. Look at that
field goal that goes in and dooinkson off the upright.
But they went on and they won this game against
a good team. You tell me they can't win games
against really, really good teams. This is Zach Wilson with
no reps, jumping in saying, hey, Zach, don't lose the
game for us, and the Jets still won the game.
Jets are going to the playoff. Jets are winning ten games,
(25:50):
They're going in one game. You're talking Super Bowl, and
Zach will they soon beat the Texans. A's wrong with you.
They beat the Bills. The Bills are a really good
team right now. Look, I'm not as high as the Bills,
but everybody the Bills are really but everybody wants forget that.
Oh Rogers is out. They won the game without him.
You really think they can't?
Speaker 4 (26:06):
How many teams are better than the Bill. It's one
game and it's a great story. Sala Is staff, whatever
was going on, whoever became the de facto leader, whether
it's Zach Wilson or whoever. Yeah, they rallied and they
got a w Whitehead had the game.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Of his life.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
We talked about it before he earned himself an extra
quarter million dollars already in Game one. Good for him
when you reach incentive Zach quickly. And I don't dismiss it.
They're a pretty good roster. But I want to see
when there there's a game that starts to get away.
Can they can they play from behind? And it's not
that they're gonna get trounced. But we've also seen other
(26:46):
teams that we thought had pretty good defenses in Week
one get absolutely bludgeoned. Right, Whether you love or don't
love Kenny Pickett's not the issue. They went and got
absolutely smashed to pieces by the four forty nine ers
at home the Giants. Now, maybe I sheepishly should just
(27:06):
hide from any predictions I made about them.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
But are they gonna be that bad?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Right?
Speaker 4 (27:10):
But I'm not saying but no, no, no, But I'm
doing the same thing though, Like I'm going off of
one game, I'm not gonna go to some height high
of highest heights.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Because when we're looking at that offense, and Garrett Wilson
made a play and Breese Hall had what two monster
runs the eighty three yarder and what was it, twenty five,
twenty six yards whatever it was that accounted for a
good chunk of what he did on the night. Doesn't
mean it led.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
To two scores.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
No, no, no, But again, you're living in one game. We're
talking about a full season's let's roll. Let's see if
Zach Wilson and company in the offense can produce points.
So I like him more than others. But again, they're
not gonna shut everybody out either.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Ten games, and the quarterbacks aren't going to be as
giving ten games. We're gonna win ten games. As Josh
Allen was, it's a good quarterback isn't it. Josh Allen
gaves a good ballter back a lot. It's good quarterback,
isn't he. Jet's got four No, I'll tell you you're
you're dismissing that they beat a really good team in
a really young but all of a sudden, you're extravas
lighting miss like.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
We haven't seen Josh Allen struggle with turnovers for the
last two years.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
He's still which we've talked through thirty five touchdowns last
year through one last night.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
And he turned the ball over a ton and he
gave you a bunch of gifts. Yeah, so you got
Christmas early? Four both four times on right, you guys.
He turned the ball over a fourteen game game. Is
that gonna happen every game?
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Does he turn?
Speaker 7 (28:30):
No?
Speaker 4 (28:30):
No, no, listen to it over. He turned it over
at least twice again. He's in the game four times
at least twice again.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Two years. Four turnovers, four turnovers.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
I really want a little bit more clarity on this
whole Taylor Swift Travis Kelsey thing. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
I don't think it's legit, but that's fine.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
The Daily Mail reports today that Travis Kelsey and Taylor
Swift are hanging out. Well, it's something called the Message,
quietly hanging out the Messenger.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
I don't even know what that is. It's not the
Daily Mail, it's the Messenger.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
What do they mean by hanging out? Well, that's the thing.
At first, I thought're gonna say the Daily Prophet, but
it's not.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Well, Rita Skeeter come walking around the corner.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
They are quietly hanging out. This this is this is
the phrase for Travis Kelcey and Taylors are both thirty
three years old. Travis Kelsey, I think, admitted he tried to.
Oh no, he was trying with the friendship.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Bracelets and everything.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
I'm so did I.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
By the way, with Jaylor Swift, why wouldn't I?
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Okay, she's kind of.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
A big dance.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Sure, sure, you're you're too old for her? What does
that mean? True? Yeah, you are too old for Why
is that? Yeah? Why you're sixteen years older than she?
What does that mean? Too old? You're too old? You're
too old? Says the guy with no game. You're too old,
too old for any My wife is older than me.
She's my older woman face. Yeah you yeah. I always
(29:57):
say that, Hey, this is you know, my wife is
a year half older than I have. I always say
that's a year and a half older than I have.
And she doesn't like that when you say that, does she?
Speaker 3 (30:05):
She probably does not show over.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
She used to not mind it. Now I think a
little bit when I say that, I say, you know,
you're my older woman face. I mean eventually I'm gonna
trade you in for a younger mom.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
Kind of like early in the process, when it's a wow,
look at what she's wearing.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
Now it's hey, stop looking at what she's wearing.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
We've been now, we've been together for so long. In
the beginning, it was wow that song. When you think
of that song, I was a freshman in college and
and like, well, I'm thinking of that song. I'm a
junior in high school and you.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Think that our song is a slamming screen door.
Speaker 7 (30:34):
Yeah, that's okay, you keep this up. She might trade
you in for Dan Campbell.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
No, she doesn't like coffee that much. If she like coffee,
but she's not a big coffee fan. She likes Dan
Campbell does is drink coffee, just just drinks coffee. She's
not a big that's true. That's true. But don't even
ask to follow up. When I hear When I hear
the phrase quietly hanging out, I picture like two people
(30:59):
in a library reading books, like separately, not the same book,
like different books, and they read for a few hours.
Hey was that fun? Yeah? Great, okay, see tomorrow setting
time on the porch. We're quietly hanging out, but like
but nobody knows, Like nobody knows they're in this library
together reading books like that's here, they're quietly it's bulbon
(31:20):
in the library.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
I just don't believe this at all.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
Like she has been attached to so many random people
in the press, like oh she's nowdatd It's like really,
like how does she have enough time? Like she's on
the other side of the country, Like what are we doing?
Travis COM's just started coming out of me. Travis Couch
is a recording studio in a city three thousand miles.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
His knees are nest Hey, hey, coach, Yeah yeah, what
what what do you got? Travis? Hey, listen, I know
I'm hurt I'm not playing. So do you mind if
I like go on tour with Taylor a little bit? Yeah?
So problem because I gotta do another couple of those
commercials where I draw mustaches on guys. So yeah, you
take time. I'll take my time. It'll be great. How
long until you think you're back? I don't know, a
couple of weeks? All right, Great, see in a couple weeks.
(32:05):
Why don't we make up that you have some kind
of injury. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, make it my knee.
That's more believable. Okay, great, great, great, that's what we'll do.
All right, See in a couple of weeks. Seeing a
couple of weeks, all good.
Speaker 4 (32:15):
Yeah, I mean if it's true, hey, good for him.
I just don't tailor. I just don't buy it.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
Taylor Swift, you don't believe. You don't believe the daily mail.
You don't believe the daily it's not the daily mail.
You don't believe that's something called the message. You don't
believe that hell is the message. That's like the quibble version.
Speaker 4 (32:29):
But that's like one of those bad CBS shows back
in the day.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Just because you don't want to believe what xenaphilias love
good has to print in the quibbler. Does it mean
you have to just say suddenly not true?
Speaker 3 (32:40):
You can't say that on air, sure, I can?
Speaker 1 (32:43):
You know, Phileas back to the quiet least? Is that
because they don't want to wake the neighbors. Travis Kelcey
is coming over, but you're Taylor Swift? Yeah, I know,
but Travis Kelcey is coming over. That doesn't roll off
the top. But when it's hey, she wears high heels,
Taylor's where Taylor Swift is coming over? What you don't, Jason?
Speaker 6 (33:03):
Do you think he can do better?
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Is that why we're quietly hanging out? No, I'm just saying.
I mean it must be difficult to quietly. If quietly
hang out, it's getting very tough. Well, it means you're
not exclusive. That's what quietly means. Really, if you hang
out loud, you're out in public. Quiley means behind the scenes,
you hang out. It doesn't mean like they're playing loud
music death listening, but quietly dealth Or is quietly hanging
(33:26):
out more. Hey, we you know, we don't want anybody
to know, but somehow now they found out. Kind of Yeah,
you don't want people to find out they're hanging out,
and they don't want them to find out they're not exclusive. Basically,
that's what quietly means, they're not really being quiet.
Speaker 4 (33:42):
Okay, Travis Kelsey, no doubt if this is actually happening,
he's he leaked it to somebody.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
I mean, look, I understand that I'm fifty and certain
entertainment reports when they come out, I'm not gonna get.
I understand that, you know, curtains for Zozo, Like, what
does that? I don't know what that means. I have
no idea. Well, let's see update version of Bedtime for Bonzo.
I don't I don't know any of that means. I
don't know, Uh, you know K, you know K Suede
and and B Flip decide to turn tables and I'm like,
(34:11):
I don't know what that means. Like that, that's all.
That's what all entertainment news to me.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
Is there really a guy named B Flip?
Speaker 2 (34:15):
No?
Speaker 1 (34:15):
I don't know, but that is no, I don't understand.
I'd like hearing.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
So did you just create your alter ego? Did you
just flip?
Speaker 8 (34:22):
You doing quietly on the flippity flip hip flippity flip.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
So what you're saying is quietly means they're not exclusive,
but they're also trying to keep it underrest.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
So it's in the vein of quiet quitting.
Speaker 6 (34:37):
No wait, but yeah, think about Jay, It's like when
we were you were younger, right, so when you were
seeing somebody but you aren't, you just.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
Say we're dating. That's dating. We're dating.
Speaker 6 (34:46):
Yeah, but kids doing but.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
But that, but quietly hanging out has a different connotation
of Okay, I get it. Quietly means we don't want
people to.
Speaker 6 (34:53):
Know, right, But they also say, like, no, cap for real,
for real. There's a whole different demographic terms now, no
for real. Yeah, you know, so a lot of people
just say just staying out the way. That's what they're
trying to do. They're just staying out the way.
Speaker 4 (35:04):
He used to be keeping on the down low. Okay, no,
but yeah, but quotes had other meanings too. Quietly has
such a.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
Meaning that everybody gets, Oh, it means we don't want
people to know, and that I think that I think
that goes you know that that's right to think about it.
Speaker 6 (35:18):
So, Jason, you're somewhere and you want to be quiet,
so somebody across the room, doesn't hear you? Right, Yeah,
so that's the same thing. They're quietly seeing each other.
They don't want other people to.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
Know, right, But what's the whole thing that they're But
they're also seeing other people well, and it's like modern
day dating pieces.
Speaker 7 (35:31):
You're a Taylor Swift, people are going to know, right,
So how does it so?
Speaker 1 (35:35):
I don't understand how that's quietly. It's not. It's not.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
It's not making it up. That's what the term is.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
You can't just make up entertainment news.
Speaker 6 (35:42):
It's not made up.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
You're just making it.
Speaker 4 (35:44):
No, I don't think this story is real. I don't
doubt his explanation of what quiet means.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Like I think he's absolutely right on it. I just
think this story is I think see, I think they're
hanging out. But I disagree with Tyshirt's interpretation of quietly.
Taylor Swift would never waste her time with a loser
like Travis le Okay, okay, just because he's in the
AFC West, the guy is a loser's if he was
in the AFC North, it would be okay, he'd be great. Okay,
(36:15):
all right, that's right, so Tyser, But but.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Get this head's gonna explode.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
That guy.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
It's too many meanings for quietly. It's just very simple
English language. You can have fourteen meanings. What is it?
What is it?
Speaker 2 (36:30):
More?
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Is it more? They don't want to say.
Speaker 6 (36:32):
It, just they're not really a thing. So they're just
quietly seeing each other.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
So how does quietly mean that? Why did you say
they're not quite a thing. They're not exclusive the times
they're hanging out. They're hanging out, they're not exclusive to
you and me.
Speaker 6 (36:44):
That makes sense.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
I know. I would want to make sure if I
was breaking news, I would want to make sure everybody
listening knows what's going on right, not just saying hey,
everybody who's eighteen and under gets the phrase i' music.
What about people eighteen to They didn't understand what that means? Okay,
I want to make sure people stand what that means.
They don't care. I don't care. What about the clicks.
I don't care about clicks, doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 6 (37:06):
Yet it made you click because you don't get it right?
Speaker 1 (37:07):
Well, because I see you know, I see Travis Tritt,
Travis Kelsey, and Taylor say you were wrong. I see
ever leave me alone who had more carries on Sunday,
Taylor Swift or DeAndre Swift really quick? If you look Taylor,
look so you don't believe this is true. And I
don't believe it's true at all. I agree with Mike,
but I think he shot his shot and that was it.
You just don't want it to be true because it's
(37:29):
an AFO losers Dayton Taylor Swift. Wow, I know staking
loser man. I can't believe it's a former guest of
the show, Travis Kelsey. Yeah, you was.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
We spent a great picture with him.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
We spent twenty minutes into the Super Bowl hanging after
our asses. That was fun. You guys said to him, Hey, listen, dude,
in five years, you will be the best tight end
in football, on the path of the Hall of Fame
and dating Taylor Swift. And now he's singing, why you
gotta be so mean and a liar? A story like
this just doesn't come out of anywhere. We're suddenly as
(38:06):
sure it does. You could, you could. You could hook
up Taylor Swift with anybody, Travis. Somebody could have random shot.
I think a big star in the NFL. I don't
think it's he shot him down. He's going out to
the press saying they're hanging out quietly. There's no truth
to this story. At ust he's going she would never
(38:27):
waste her time with a Chief's here from Patrick Mahomes.
I think you talked about this earlier today. Too easy
and green.
Speaker 8 (38:43):
Out with Taylor Swift and just singing all the songs
like shaking off and stuff.
Speaker 1 (38:47):
It's kind of cool.
Speaker 8 (38:48):
Hey, could you do a song called Dude, Don't Punch Me, Dude,
don't punch just don't punch me, do don't Punch Me?
And the title album could be Max Crosby Dude, don't
Punch Me, Don't Punch me.
Speaker 1 (38:57):
There's a big deal on Quarterback on Netflix. Just don't
punch Dude, don't punch me.
Speaker 7 (39:01):
There's a better chance guys that she's dating and you
read Oh, I don't think so exactly. I don't think that, no,
but it's totally something like this is so random. If
you said Taylor Swift and Aaron Rodgers, I would say, no,
that's just that's just you know, hype machine going crazy.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
That's not happened. Oh he went to her show too,
But I would say says the joke was spent more
time watching Taylor Swift on that field than he got
to play seventy five second seconds Swift.
Speaker 4 (39:28):
Maybe, well, I mean he got into the second minute.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Hello America. Yeah, you gotta know the weird thing I
thought about today thinking about how he played seventy five
seconds and four snaps. I think about that line from
Star Trek the remake when they tell Chris Pine, Uh,
your dad was captain of a starfleet ship for sixteen
minutes and saved four hundred and seventy eight lives. You
should be proud of what he did. I think Aaron Rodgers,
(39:53):
quarterback of the Jets for four plays and seventy five seconds,
be proud of what he He.
Speaker 3 (39:58):
Did run into that and minute, So that was good
for him.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
Now, But rod but Rogers, but Rogers, Rogers. But maybe
maybe Aaron Rodgers is faking the Achilles injury to date
Taylor Swift. Maybe that's happening. No, it's too random to
not be true. I kind of I believe the randomness
of it.
Speaker 7 (40:16):
If it wasn't, Travis Kelsey, I would agree with you.
Why but she's not dating the dumb dumb.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
Why you just keep saying what biggest star in the world.
What is gonna date a Chief? What am I? Hey,
I'm a Taylor's agent, Jenny. How you doing good? Yeah, listen,
she would date you, but you play for the Chiefs.
What does that mean? No, I mean you, you play
for the Chiefs. She's not gonna get you. She's not.
(40:43):
There's certain teams that that are off limits, and most
of the a f C West, some of the NFC
West now a f C East, a little bit NFC South.
Possibly she lives in Nashville, but yeah, no, this you're
out af well.
Speaker 4 (40:57):
I mean she has houses everywhere. That a geographical thing.
He ain't, not a issue at all.
