(01:05):
NBA as the Cup lashes and lead pushes forward. Here
we have Tuesdays and Fridays, we'll have cup games, and
then the rest of the schedule that maybe you don't
care about as much because it's all about the n
season tournament and going and getting that cash. Carry rhoads
in for Jason Smith at Carrie twenty five ROAs and
(01:26):
don't tell like everybody's like, well, they already make all
this money. Don't tell me. Don't tell me. That's not
an incentive.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
It's an incentive, right if someone's.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Gonna suddenly cut you off a check for another half
a million dollars plus, Yeah, come.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
On, for sure, everybody doesn't make Lebron money, so all
of it's welcome.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
But even if you did right, even if you did,
what's the old Montgomery Burns line, I traded it all
for a little more.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
You've said that today, and I understand that. I don't
think Lebron cares about it now. I think he cares
about it for his team in certain situations, some of
that would.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
Make But but there's also a prestige right when you
don't know if you're actually competing for a title title.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
Yeah, you take the title the title, Yes, I'm talking
about the money he was talking about, but.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
The money is tied direct and and even if you
go and throw your throw everybody a big party and
whatever else we're watching, they're now doing the celebrity corner
here in the uh boxes that.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Tell Roy Lindo, tell me you didn't.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
You got everybody there, you know going through Uh Joe
May what's his name, the guy that used to be
married to Uh. Yeah, he was supposed to be death
Stroke and then that movie didn't get made. Yeah, that
was that's him. Uh, and down the line all the
celebrities there. Steve Desager still doing uh copious research as
(02:58):
to why Rosie Perez keeps showing up on our television screen.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
All of that. Yeah, yeah, fifty eight and twenty seven.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
On the big screen for our guys Alex and Patrick
in the big in their side of the glass. It
is frozen on my app on my iPad. It's working
so far. Now we're all trying to figure out exactly
what's real, what's memory X in the tail of the
tape brought to you, you know, all of these different
(03:30):
sponsors and everything that go through ours is still progressing,
at least for the moment. Fourteen ounce gloves, two minute rounds,
No three knockdown. Rule of fight is official after four
rounds now the over under is four or five and
a half rounds. Length is eight rounds for this one,
so we'll see as this goes through. We got the
(03:52):
in the air tonight entraye.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
The best song, that's the most perfect song made?
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Is that?
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Really? It? It is?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (04:00):
I mean just.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
From the drumming, obviously he's superb. The effects he used
on his voice at that time really wasn't the thing superb.
The riding superb, but the build up, the build up,
the tension that grows with that song as it progresses,
and then the drum solo, it's just like a it's
(04:22):
a big bomb waiting to happen, and it happens and
you're just like you're down for the ride.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
It's it's perfect.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
And then we get Eminem over the top of it,
and then he saw it.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
All and it sucks so good.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Yeah, So seventy thousand people the gate is the estimation,
and again, all of it it's kind of like a
parade until someone shows me the actual count. I don't
know how many people are there. I just see a
lot of faces, a lot of excitement and look, I'm
here for spectacle. It got people, It got tongues wagging,
and people cared about quote unquote boxing if only for
(04:56):
a moment, yep, And I put it in air quotes
because we have no idea we're going to see. We
talked about it with the fourteen ouch gloves and everything else,
although Tyson looked kind of tired but also ticked off.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Twelve, it's pastes bedtime. He's fifty eight, mits it's time
to go to sleep.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Oh, come on, it's only what eleven o'clock in Dallas?
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Oh is eleven? Still?
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I'm in bed at nine thirty? Usually, well, aren't you
the picture of hell? Still on air for another hour
and a half after that, yelling, yelling to at Smith
and to America about the greatness that is our sporting universe.
Coming up next hour, we got Mark Steinls stop by,
talking all things NBA and where we're at here, some
of the things we've talked about, the injuries, some of
(05:38):
the surprises. Early going, we'll talk Lakers, Lebron James's point guard,
sustainability there, but the minutes, like that's the thing I
keep looking at thirty six minutes a game thirty five?
Is it sustainable? Will help you on the way as
we we look and start tinkering already with trade meters
and stuff. Well, let's get back to the NFL here,
(05:59):
the bread and butter of our sporting universe, and a
guy in particular. We were talking about him a little
bit that the admiration for what Mike Tomlin is and
he's one of those guys that unfortunately is in that
Super Bowl a long time ago capsule. Now he's different
in that he's won a lot. It's like the John
(06:20):
Well but but it's the hey, no losing season and
then and then we have to parse out what's good?
Is that good enough? And you've you've got to decide
for yourself, right, It's it's the age old question. Could
it be better?
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Yeah? No?
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Probably not no, right, I mean he's one with teams
talent wise, he's also had what we would like to
call affectionately the knucklehead effect has reared its head on
his squads. Something in that wide receiving group. Man, there's
there's just a lot of stuff going on there. But
you look at for Mike Tomlin and the Steelers here
were week eleven of the NFL season. They played the Ravens.
(06:58):
This weekend, the first division game, the Bears play the Packers. Now,
I've joked about this all week long, the Bears Packers.
Normally it's Bears Packers week.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
I bet you you.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Could walk down with a fifty dollars bill around Chicago.
Nobody has any idea who they're playing because they're still
vomiting over the last several games and how bad things
have been. That's how far off the radar. But also
first division games. Remember they opened with three games against
the AFC South to get things started. Mike Tomlin just says,
(07:36):
I don't care, schedule, go play. Part of me likes
that sensibility. The other part of me says, from a competition,
competition perspective for the NFL, especially when Week eleven, very
rarely are you going out with the all twenty two
that you started with or even some remnant of it. Right,
(08:00):
forget about your kickers and punters for a second. We'll
throw them to the side. They're players, They're very important, right, Oh.
I mean, look at Kansas City loses, butker tell me
that's not gonna matter with the way they've been playing. Games, right,
But just in general, let's talk all twenty two that
you're it's a war of attrition, and right now you're
in week eleven, and now you're going to start division
(08:21):
games where we talk about winning a division being paramount
and you think getting you to the playoffs and all
of that.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
And you talk about angry too, Henri.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
You plan division opponents in a span and a short
span and back to back essentially, it can it can
call some excitement and it can be a very highly
competitive thing that happens with that too, because you know,
and when you play in those back to back situations,
basketball or any other spot to be juiced right where.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
You have all right, I play you this and you
get one game with somebody else and then we're right
back at it. But the idea you play six division
games and the eight, right, I just don't think from
the competitive side of things, look fair is a four
letter word literally and figuratively, and certainly the NFL we
(09:14):
watch it work. But the idea that you've played no
division games as you get into mid November and now
you're gonna have this stretch when you've probably already lost
how many linemen, how many defensive line like, you're not
playing a full strength and I get it. Everybody else
is in the same, but not all schedules are created equal.
But you have the circumstance whereby you might not be
(09:39):
playing with some of your stars based on and look,
it's happenstance. And you could say, oh, well, that's the
way the proverbial cookie crumbles, But it just seems to me,
while we get some great football here that we may
not have been blessed with full strength. Now where we're
at with the Steelers and Ravens, we're blessed that we are.
Yes right with the Packers and Bears. A couple of
(10:03):
guys that are questionable may not be one hundred for this,
but for the most part, you're good to go. Bears
are going to be without Brisker. Hopefully he gets whatever
help he needs. Talking about a guy, you know, whenever
we do the concussion thing, he's missed five games due
to a concussion and now just got put on IR.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
And what's the span? Was it just this year?
Speaker 4 (10:22):
Yeah, he missed the last five games.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Wow, I didn't know that holed out for this week
and now added to IR.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
So like when we talk about like, look, everybody looks
at Tua and what's going on with him. There's still
a lot of guys getting hurt and having the same
same issues over here, like we need to be cognizant
of this. But it's just like, all right, there's one
of your starting guys in your secondary, who's one of
your stars in the secondary, who's unavailable. But it's just
you know, I get it to Mike Tomlins, like, hey,
(10:49):
next guy on the schedule, let's get back to work.
I wouldn't expect him to say anything less or anything
more than that. But in a locker room, how does
that does that play at all? I mean, because I know, look,
you guys can only put on tape. What you can
put on tape, yeah, and play Who's Next? But I
gotta imagine that that that grates a little bit.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
Well during the during the week and in the process
of actually, you know, going out there to play a game,
knowing you gotta play a game, You're going to play
the game with whoever's available, and when you say next
man up, that's a real thing. It really is, and
especially in sports, right because it has to be and
everybody is paid to do a job.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
So next man up? You gotta do it.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
But when it's all said and done, if you're on
the losing end of that, you always have a built
in excuse to say, but if we were healthy, isn't
an excuse or reason?
Speaker 4 (11:42):
I think it's where do we find a nice hybrid
word that we need to create?
Speaker 5 (11:46):
It is a hybrid and I it is a hybrid
thing because because it depends on who's telling that story, right,
because it can be an excuse or it can be
the reason.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Right.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
But yeah, let's think about it.
Speaker 5 (11:55):
Let's think about if the show goes on, like a
word that could be substituted for that.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
But it's a little curious, right because look, we know
from the first snap that you guys take, whether you
play in the preseason or it's Week one of the
NFL season, nobody's one hundred percent again.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
And it can be your last. That's it.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Yeah, Right, So when we have a circumstance again where
division is supposed to matter so much, right, you win
the division, your top four seed. Yeah, but now you're
you're playing starting Week eleven with I don't know what
I got, like, all right, well, we're gonna go win
(12:34):
those the best of those six games.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
I've never even thought about it that way.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
That's funny that we having the conversation about it, because
I've never had this situation happen obviously, where we're playing
all division games like backloaded, right, huh. That's that's interesting
that we never think about the way, Mike like, as
a team, we would obviously break down the sections of
the season.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Right always in the quarters of the old Lovey Smith idea, Hey,
we got four at a time, and then we'll reevaluate
and see exactly.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
So if we never really paid attention to it that way,
and I don't think it's ever happened, I can't even remember.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
I think we'd have to go back, yeah, a long time,
try to figure it out. But look, I certainly hate it.
I've always hated the dopey you one other, let's play
you again thing that we have towards the end of
the year, because we certainly had that because of the
preponderance of division games in those final three weeks, because
we want to make sure Week eighteen has value right
(13:30):
again oftentimes done. But that's that's again the National Football
League in a nutshell here in twenty twenty four, He's
carry Rhodes and for Jason Smith. The intros, the anthem,
all the pageantry seems to have finally finished. I think
these thirty eight people are going to get out of
(13:51):
the ring and we may see something resembling the sport
of boxing soon enough. And if it happens, we'll be
here for you. It's Fox Sports Video The Jason Smith
Show with Me Mike Harmon from the tire rac dot Com,
Fox Sports Radio Studios and unmatch selection, fast free shipping,
free road azer protection, over ten thousand recommendeds installers. It's
(14:11):
tirerac dot Com the way tire buying should be. And
coming up next, Hey, Jerry Jones, not only is he
not being heard at at and T Stadium trying to
hype things here, he is, though, stumping for a former
player as a would be coaching option and.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
It's not Dyon. Oh.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
We'll tell you who it is and what it's all
about next here on Fox.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith

pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Welcome back in beautiful Friday Night. Thanks for hanging out
with us being part of the extended family. We do
appreciate you.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
You know, you have a lot of viewing and audio
options out there, so it does not we don't take
it lightly. We appreciate each and every one of you,
the minutes you give family time in the car, out
in the highways and byways. Let's be safe out there,
look after each other. Uh and thanks for being with us.
Carrie Rhoades in for Jason Smith on by Carbon Jason
(15:12):
Smith Show with me Mike Carbon here at Fox Sports
Radio Fromthetirac dot Com studios. We're into the fifth round
of this Tyson and Paul depending on.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Your feed, Yeah, right, because they were in the.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Third round when we we went and we paid some
bills and did the commercials and and you know, bathroom breaks,
coffee whatever. Walk in and then it's the fifth as
we walk back in, But on my screen it's only
the third. So depending on where you are, you may
have glitched, hiccuped, maybe you came in in a different dimension.
I don't know. We're watching Paul and Tyson. Some sporadic aggressiveness,
(15:50):
I guess from either combatant would be the way to
say it. A lot of dancing around and and you know,
the old move you'd make when you were playing Tyson
on punch out, where you'd make him kind of bounce
up and down a little bit. The anticipation of that
step forward in the big glancing blow upside your temple.
We haven't seen it. The copy box after three rounds
(16:12):
had Paul landing nearly double the punches. I don't think
he landed very many. Curiosity as to what constitutes a
landed punch sometimes and again this is like, you know what,
reading things from Pro Football Focus and other it's like,
what are you watching and how are you grading this? Yes,
you know, sacks and offensive line quality, all those things.
(16:35):
We can fight about all of that. Likewise, here as
we watched this spectacle of which our guy Steve di
Sager was skeptical, still wondering why Rosie Perez is on the.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Call, still wondering, Well, I think we all are, though,
I mean whatever part of the era, part of the time.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
We've got two stories for you here wrapped around Steve
Di Sager's update, the first being Jerry Jones one five
three the fan in Dallas, and I've got the transcript
of what he had to say here, and I'm really
getting tired of the the either it's AI or just
laziness on copy editors. I mocked the NBA before they
were touting the Cleveland Cavaliers and saying, hey, here's their
(17:14):
court for the NBA Cup and had a misspelling of undefeated.
They did, and yeah, in their tweet, I'm.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Like, what are we doing. You got forty seven million followers.
You've got a responsibility to spell that right for me.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
Not that I get everything right, because sometimes fat fingering things,
but I'd like to think if I'm writing on behalf
of my professional league and I'm gonna get that right,
and then I got this here, it's like, hey's here's
a quote from Jerry Jones and they misspell the word
athletic in really quoting what Jones had to say from
(17:47):
John Matchada of the Athletic dot Com.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
He was asked if Jerry Jerry Jones was asked if
Jason Whitten could ever be an NFL head coach without hesitation. Yes,
he's something. He has something you can't draw up. He
reminds me a lot of our other tight end, who's
a head coach up there in Detroit right now?
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Uh Huh.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
Jason sophisticated when it comes to understanding football all the nuances,
but more importantly, he understands the physical and mental uh
and the mentality of being physical and that part of
it without a question. To become an NFL coach, He's
got extraordinary work ethic. He can be a top coach.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
So uh.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Jason Witten now on that short list of potential Cowboys
coaches as he tries to emulate what's going on in
the culture of Detroit, because you know, kid rock one's saying,
if hev't ain't a lot like Detroit, I don't want
to go Detroit.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Detroit, Detroit, get Detroit's.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
It's like when you go to McDonald's the outside of Chicago.
That's how it said.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
McDonald's. No, you know what Jason and foremost, does Jason
Witten coach anywhere? It's a good question.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
I might be he might be going the JJ Redick
route where he am goodt good his kids and good point,
you know, athletic leagues and stuff. I don't know. I'll
have to do my due diligence on that one.
Speaker 5 (19:13):
But you know, when it when it comes to football
and coaching, you know what I really do feel you
get the most out of out of coaches who played
the game right, especially now with the way that everything
is so analytical and a lot of people are going
by the by that, you know, the analytical approach. I
(19:36):
think there is some truth and some sweetness too to
the analytical side of it if you're doing it with
still the football acumen. I think if you combine the two,
it can be a beautiful thing. You had the coach
here with the with the Chargers the last couple of
years who just solely went by using the analytics and
(19:59):
it didn't pan out well. I think there is a
sweet spot with a player that played that can use that.
So you talk about Dan Campbell in the way that
he approaches it. A lot of times he will go
with the analytics side of it, but that's only based
on the aggression of it. It's not like, oh, it
says we should go forward on third and thirteen and
(20:22):
when we score, if we go for two, we get closer,
will be up by nine.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
You like it's well, but like even go to yesterday's game, right,
the amount of blowback Dan Quinn got yes with the
Jaden Daniels run snapnot doesn't get handled well. Whatever instead
of kicking the field goal. It's like if it gets executed,
nobody cares. Likewise, the playoff, Dan Campbell decisions, yes, right call,
(20:51):
just to execute the damn play right right, But unfortunately
that goes into the negative column. It's like, well, this
is why you shouldn't do it. It's like it is, my guys,
my guys, you should be able to participate in and
complete passes, complete a run, complete a block, or defend
such things in big moments. Like I don't suddenly say, hey,
(21:11):
I work for games one through nineteen. Here we are
in game twenty. Hey let's change our approach, right.
Speaker 5 (21:18):
I mean, I don't think all situations in all of
those moments are the same though. So like if you're
going and that's just your approach, and you're going to
the game as that's my approach, I'm gonna be aggressive
and I'm gonna go and do this because the numbers
say do it. That's where I have pushed back on it,
because as a coach, you gotta have.
Speaker 4 (21:39):
Field's gonna be gutt and field you gotta have feel.
Speaker 5 (21:42):
So it's not like just because analytically it says I
should do this, I'm gonna do it if my team,
if I have a real grasp of my team and
an understanding and the feel of my team, I may
not go for it on them.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
Right, But if I feel like we're moving the ball, well,
if I feel like I've got a shot. And in
this case, you know, going back to yesterday's game, you
saw the Eagles, I mean they moved the ball. The
Commanders didn't do much on third downs, right, Like all
of that to say the levy was gonna break at
some point. So the field goal, I don't think dan
(22:15):
Quinn thought that was gonna win them the game, right,
and that the third gas because they've been on the
field a lot, right, you're a defender, yes, May fifteen
play drives, ten play drives over time, that's gonna come
get you, right, Yeah. And I think for dan Quinn,
part of we're going for it in that moment was, hey,
field goal is great, Yeah, we're gassed.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
No that and that would be a feel, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
So I that feel, and I think Dan Campbell was
the same thing of like I got a team that
we were the bullies.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
I don't know if Dan's the same though. I think
Dan is just on go all the time, and that
seemed to be part of the personality.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
To give our point of clarification, Jason Witten's been the
head coach of Argyle Liberty Christian High School since twenty
twenty one, his two sons.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (23:02):
But the idea that he's he's coaching, he's in that
that kind of framework. Like a lot of it, I
think just comes down to, all, right, who are you
also surrounding yourself with? And one of the things I
liked what they did in Detroit beyond the style of Campbell,
Like we all we all had of had to chuckle
at that opening press conference. Anybody that says they didn't
their liar right, even even the staunchest supporter, was.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
Like, what the hell is this guy doing? Okay?
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Cool?
Speaker 3 (23:29):
Right?
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Like we keep waiting for Mike Tyson uh to maybe
to get one of those in here. But but like
what they did was they surrounded with a bunch of
x NFL players, guys that can communicate, guys who have
been in all those big moments, yes, and could speak
to it, could coach guys through it, talk them through
the highs, the lows and everything in between.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
You and the wise. You can't just you can.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
You can just tell people to go do something and
they got to do it because that's their job. But
you have somebody they can tell you the why. Yeah,
that's a big deal.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
Right.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
So like part of that it would be is to
see Jerry Jones. If say, Jason Witten's the guy. Let's
suppose for sake of argument, that that's the case. You know,
how much empowerment to all right, go build your staff.
And if he does it in the same kind of image,
I'd love to see the guys that are suddenly rolling
around the sidelines.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Yeah, that would be. That'd be interesting.
Speaker 5 (24:17):
I I had no idea Jason was actually coaching number one,
but I could see him.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Being a guy that would be a coach. I mean,
he does have to make up.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
He's somebody that really loves the game and really good
at the game, and so having that perspective and seeing,
you know, what it takes to get the job done.
I mean, if he could surround himself with guys that
can do that, can coach at a.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
High level, he could be successful for sure.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
That's the curiosity. All right, So this story I've kicked
to this point and I'm now going to it's something
that's really perturbed you over the course of the week,
and I set down a shell of topics and some
of our guests, right Mark Steinel joined us in a
half hour last hour, we had p few tech wherever
you download your audio, grab the podcast when it's don
(25:05):
Patrick will push that up. Wherever you get your audio downloaded,
give it five stars, rate us, tell us what you
liked which didn't especially a lot of what you liked,
and evangelize going forward. It's a community that we continue
to build globally, and we appreciate you being on board
with us, hopefully a little more entertained informed, you know,
(25:25):
the whole idea of what we try to do here
on a nightly basis. But the social media sphere, right
Jake Paul as we we put him up as an
example of influencing and whether you're on Instagram or TikTok
or all these other things, the last couple of days
has been a I declare not a thumb war, nothing
(25:46):
of those nature or past the election, but you know
the trickle down effect. We're not going into politics, but
certainly some have taken it into the social media sphere
as do how they're going to operate going forward and
making and declarations of how they're gonna do so do
show and Carrie Rhodes, You're not one with.
Speaker 5 (26:05):
It, man, I'm just I'm just outraised on the fact
that people feel like we should care that they're leaving
leaving a social media platform.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
It's something that's so just.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
It's just it's just as and I and really when
you think about it, right, So, I mean, if you
think of what social media was supposed to be, right,
like X is like a journal for me, Right, I'll
go in make an entry, only for the people at
the coffee shop to be peeking on my shoulder looking
with me knowing, right, Like I know you're knowing that
I'm writing this entry. And if you know, if you
(26:43):
want to take a look at it, you can. I
know you're looking at it. So it's out there, but
it's not gonna do anything to sway me or move
me in any direction, right, you know, Like it's one
of those things where it's it's a choice. I decided
to do it. I'm not gonna tell you that, and
I'm leaving it or I'm about to not write in
(27:03):
the journal again.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
It's just doesn't make any sense. To me.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
Yeah, it's all a question of how you use it
right For me. If you go through folks that I follow,
it's whatever in the arts, movie, music information, historical dates,
like there's a couple of guys I love, they kind
of do the Hey on this date, here's stuff that
was released and over the course of the day, here's
an album or here's you know, a song or a
(27:28):
movie and it's like, ah cool, Hey, I haven't revisited
that one in a while. Add to the playlist, or
make sure it gets shuffled up. Let's let's dial it
up while I walk the dog. Things of that nature.
All the news breakers obviously for what we do here
at Fox Sports Radio, all of your NFL, NBA, Major
League Baseball, whatever insiders, a lot of the beat writers
from the different teams, Like it's a curated list. There's
(27:50):
some nonsense and fluff mix therein, and folks that whatever
you meet on the highways and byways that you do.
But in the end, if I don't post for a
couple of days or I don't read it for a
couple of days, am I am I losing anything out? No, like,
but to say I'm done with this for reasons like okay, but.
Speaker 5 (28:09):
Like most of the time on there, if you're not
doing it as a journal entry, right, like you're probably
trying to sell something.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Get in there and sell, sell, sell, right.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
So when somebody has to announce that, hey, everybody, I'm
leaving X, I won't be you know.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Participating on this platform again.
Speaker 5 (28:26):
And it comes from a celebrity, it feels like they're
selling me something and I don't like that.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Well, but it is right in this particular case. A
lot of it becomes comes back to the philosophical stuff
and it's like, I don't know that people think about
it that seriously. Oh and I don't think in the
scroll depending on your scroll, right, because obviously it goes
to what you like, yes, and what you've interacted with
or whatever. Guess what if stuff you don't interact with
(28:52):
starts drifting away? So for me, do I am I
aware of the political world? Look the old Bob Dylan
song We live in a political world, and you can
go turn it in a thrashing about all of those things.
I'm well aware of it, yes, but I'm my socials.
That ain't what I'm engaging with because I have my job,
my job.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Here's this right, and the only time I'm on Twitter,
guess what is for my job? For your job?
Speaker 4 (29:17):
And a little bit of the hey, you know, here's
my musical pick of the day. Or I went and
saw a movie, like we're gonna go see a movie tomorrow.
If I know people that like horror thriller genre genre,
I kind of want to know what they think if
they've seen it, right, if they've seen a preview. So
we're gonna go see her. I'm a Hugh Grant fan.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
They say this is a business.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
I'm very curious to see this one. The trailer looks
good whatever Notckwood, it actually delivers. Because every movie I've seen,
I think in the theater, all but maybe one has
fallen apart in the third act consistent.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
I'm like, all right, you got me for an hour.
Speaker 4 (29:53):
And twenty minutes, and now I hate you because you
couldn't stick the landing right, that kind of thing. You
couldn't finish the fight as it were, you know, glitchiness
or you know, just you just came up to a
contrived ending because it was at an hour and fifty
two and to get the extra showing you couldn't go
more than an hour and fifty five plus credits to
make sure you got one more showing in that first
(30:15):
weekend box office. All of those kind of thing matters.
So all of that matters. But suffice to say, you know,
if you're gonna go, and whether it be more Instagram
or TikTok or blue Sky Now or whatever else, whatever
the case. So blue Sky is basically from one of
the guys that was the founder of Twitter.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
Oh it is. It's now like if you look at
it, it looks like old Twitter. Oh it's the same.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
I was able to get my name though, which I've
never been able to do because there's a truck driver
like off the NASCAR service. Yeah no, he actually had
a thing where they had stolen car parts or whatever.
People were saying, write me, terrible thing. I'm like, God's
not me, not me. But I was actually able to
get Mike Harmon on this news service. So I've got
that going for nice.
Speaker 3 (30:57):
Yeah, I don't know what that is. I've never even
heard of it.
Speaker 4 (30:59):
Yeah, about a year, Like for a while it was
the hey, get on the list and eventually maybe we
release slow release stuff. Now it's open season going to
do it, So folks, are. That's part of the all right,
I'm gonna go over here. Well, it's all in the
same silos. You're gonna if you gravitate towards that crap,
guess what.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
It's gonna find you again? Come back there.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
So the stuff you hate somewhere if if you if
that's what you're looking for, guess what you'll find it.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
Exactly right.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
It's like you found trouble in a relationship. If that's
what you know, you're drawn to this whatever drama, guess
what you're gonna find it again?
Speaker 7 (31:36):
Men?
Speaker 4 (31:36):
Women, uh, you know, and everybody's just.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Not a logo. Yep, exactly all right.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
Moving on from there, Hey, do you want what's the
value of an audience with Livy Dunn. That's a question
we're gonna ask. And it goes back to my hobby,
my pastime when I'm not here at Fox Sports right,
talk all about it coming up next. But Steve de Seger,
who is skeptical of the spectacle, is your feed actually working? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (32:05):
Unfortunately it was, and it's over.
Speaker 7 (32:07):
The boxing at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium has done Jake
Paul wins by unanimous decision over fifty eight year old
Mike Tyson. One of the judges had it eight rounds
to none and the other had it. The other two
judges had it seven rounds to one. Veteran boxing writer
Kevin Ioli said, at one point late in the pipe,
Jake Paul is no good period. He's got a fifty
(32:29):
eight year old in front of him who is dead tired,
and he can barely land a combination. Our Doug Gottlieb
after the decision, same old boxing, best sport, worst sport.
Another writer that was sixteen minutes we could never get back.
Or Alex Curry says it felt like Jake Paul was
playing with his food and of course our own Dan
Byer Eh, the joke will be on us Christmas Day
(32:52):
when Netflix gives us the Chiefs against the nineteen seventy
four stealers.
Speaker 8 (32:59):
So you got the name of.
Speaker 7 (33:00):
Mike Tyson in the ring and at one point and
they were putting up as if it was a real fight.
They were putting up statistics after each run. Of course,
he was landing fewer than ten percent of his punches
by late in the fight, and literally had landed only
five in the next to last round of this one.
Speaker 8 (33:18):
And keep in mind, these were with very large gloves
and very short.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
Round Here you go Mike Tyson on why he was
biting his glove throughout the fight, and there's plenty of images. Quote,
I have a biting fixation. Put that on a s way,
put it on his shirt.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
Let's go. Did he say that? Oh man?
Speaker 4 (33:35):
Hey, that's from the Sporting News. So they've got a
paid for or legit blue check mark.
Speaker 8 (33:40):
Oh man, So can we just mention again out loud?
Speaker 7 (33:43):
One of the official judges headed eight rounds to none
for a jake pull.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
So it didn't happen.
Speaker 8 (33:48):
State people weren't.
Speaker 7 (33:49):
Paying seventy five dollars or what have you for this,
So there's that.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
I got a couple of guys that have written, I
wasted my kid's best sleep cycle for this.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
That's right. Of course.
Speaker 7 (34:01):
It was midnight Eastern by the time this started in
twelve thirty Eastern. By the time this ended, eight rounds
two minutes, two minutes per round, not three.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
I can't believe people were excited to see you. There
was a lot of betting on it. Yeah, well they.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
Said there was a handle rivaling NFL playoff games.
Speaker 8 (34:22):
People bet on dogs and chickens, as well.
Speaker 4 (34:24):
So I'm not saying it's why, Steve just saying that
folks threw down there and plug down their hard earned money.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
Like it was an NFL playoff game.
Speaker 8 (34:34):
Did you not see that one on a couple episode
years ago?
Speaker 7 (34:37):
They were just get to the point where they're betting
who's going to come down the hallways.
Speaker 8 (34:41):
Of course it really doesn't matter at some point.
Speaker 7 (34:43):
No, you're right, we've got college football winding down on
Fox TV. UCLA score they are not going to win
at Washington. The Huskies lead now thirty one to nineteen
over the Bruins in the final seconds on FS one,
Arizona's lead now twenty to three over Houston late in
the third quarter. Earlier wins for Colorado State and you tssay.
In the NBA, we had an overtime victory for Minnesota
(35:04):
at Sacramento one thirty to one twenty six despite sixty
points from de Aaron Fox. His team made the comeback,
got it to overtime, but still lost. He finished with
seven assists, six turnovers, but in forty four minutes sixty
points in the loss for de Aaron Fox.
Speaker 4 (35:21):
But you know, dearon Fox, had they quote of the
day because they they showed him the new mascot and
he just said, what the blank?
Speaker 3 (35:29):
Is that the Kings here?
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (35:33):
Yeah, yeah, so the new King mascot.
Speaker 4 (35:36):
Literally the sentence ascribed to him was, what the blank?
Speaker 7 (35:42):
So the face of the franchise, yeah, is as perplexed
as the franchise.
Speaker 3 (35:47):
Aff Wait is it just their city uniform? But you know,
but look at the look at the mascot.
Speaker 5 (35:53):
No, I see him. He looks like like a baseball uniformal.
Speaker 7 (35:56):
Can I get to the last comment on the Tyson
loss site from our own Glazer, who we talked to
him this week. As you recall, he was genuinely looking
forward to this.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
See what what it became.
Speaker 7 (36:05):
I'm sure Mike Tyson in any form he was down
with it. Jay Glazer has simply tweeted, welp, and then
a second tweet.
Speaker 4 (36:16):
Yeah, that'll sum it up, Actually done. Steve Desager at
the news desk, Thank you, Steve. He's carry Rhodes in
for Jason Smith. I'm Mike Krmen. Jason Smith Show with
Mike Carmon rolls on and yeah, what is the value
of an audience maybe having a beer with Livy Dunn.
We'll tell you, how you can do it and what
it might cost you. Next here on Fox.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio
dot Com and within the iHeartRadio app search FSR to
listen live.
Speaker 4 (36:49):
Executive decision will push the Livy Dunn story till next hour.
That's right, Uh, there's a Livy dun story. Mike Garmin
alongside Carrie Rhodes with you here at Fox Sport Trader
Jason Smith Show with Mike Carbon live from the Tirec
dot Com studios. Thought I'd open it up to the
rest of the crew. We know how Steve Desager votes
(37:11):
in this process. Carry you and I have been on
air and we've watched the spectacle as it played out,
and we now know the results are in unanimous decision.
Speaker 3 (37:23):
All of this stuff.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
As Jake Paul takes down Mike Tyson and I'll ask
the obvious question to our guys here we got Patrick
or we got Alex? What did you expect? What did
you get from this? And what did we learn about ourselves?
Speaker 9 (37:38):
Alex Yrfoush, Mike, It's kind of funny to say, but
nothing happened that I didn't expect. So for example, first
live streaming sporting event for Netflix more money than God,
can't figure out a microphone. Yeah, then the next part,
the constant drops delays and people can't watch it at once.
It's kind of wild to see, like when they had
(37:58):
Stranger Things, Mike, have you fully on that. Yeah, so
you know when the Newest season four or whatever it
was dropped, the whole thing crashed for like an hour.
Speaker 4 (38:05):
I remember that.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (38:06):
Yeah, it's kind of funny to know, like you don't
have the server capacity to do any of this, and
so like that was a shamble. But the worst part
is like when you watched Tyson, and I mean this
in the most respectable way, it looked like a lost,
confused older person standing in a ring, not sure why
he's getting hit.
Speaker 4 (38:21):
He did have the furrowed brow a few times. Yes,
we were talking about it, Mike.
Speaker 9 (38:25):
His trainer was sitting in front of him and it
looks like he doesn't know where.
Speaker 4 (38:28):
He is, staring through him. Yeah, it's like a little
bit of that. Yeah, I mean, but like part of
it to the streaming side of it, congratulations. That means
that more people got involved and wanted to look at
this thing than they could have possibly imagined, which is
a whole other thing, because I can't wait to see
what the numbers look like.
Speaker 3 (38:45):
Patrick, what do you think?
Speaker 6 (38:47):
Honestly, how I viewed that watching this fight is like
you know when you go shopping guys, and you get
a big bag of chips and you open it and
it's pretty much all air and maybe a few chips
in there, and at the end of the day you're like, oh,
these are my favorite chips, and it's like it wasn't
even that good.
Speaker 8 (39:02):
And like was it even worth was it even worth it?
Speaker 6 (39:05):
That's kind of how I feel watching this where it's like, oh,
I got a big bag of chips, it's gonna be
a big fight.
Speaker 3 (39:10):
Oh that's that's it.
Speaker 4 (39:11):
Now, here's what I'll say for for you, And this
is gonna make you feel a lot better.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
Talk to me. You got paid to watch it. I
you know what he is right right America?
Speaker 4 (39:24):
If you had your Netflix subscription, it costs you your
time and again, it is our most valuable resource. We
say it all the time. So perhaps you feel hoodwinked
in that regard and that you didn't watch another bad
movie ketch up on a sitcom. Maybe you could have
gone and done a rewatch of the Penguin series that
just concluded this so good.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
By the way, so good, ty Shirt, we got to
talk Buddy so good.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
He finished it earlier, so we got that all of
that to say, yeah, there are alternatives to your time,
and you make those investments. So I can understand how
you may have felt let down in the regard, but
you can say you were part of a cultural phenomenon.
Doesn't mean it was good. It was not right, but
it's a shared experience where everybody's gonna vent about it
(40:10):
over the weekend. You'll go to a barbecue, you'll go
to the early holiday gatherings. Maybe you find someone at
the target in the chip aisle who's as salty as
you are, and you can use Patrick's analogy.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
Yes, yes, And for me it's just disappointment.
Speaker 4 (40:27):
Disappointed, Yeah in America or in the fight.
Speaker 5 (40:30):
I'm disappointed in everybody and everybody, all of us here
right now, because we still what you just said.
Speaker 3 (40:36):
I knew I didn't want to watch this, but when
it came on, I was watching it. See you got
sucked in a little bit, and that just makes me
feel bad, which means you're a weak world individual.
Speaker 6 (40:47):
You know what.
Speaker 3 (40:47):
Just eat your doey pizza and be happy. But that's
just it with you.
Speaker 4 (40:52):
Carry I'm with you, but we all gravitated towards it,
even if it was just a maybe it's a carrec
like I'm coming out on my way coming in getting
the freeway, massive wreck, several cars that were in disrepair,
one that clearly burned up somewhat the entire side of
that street was was done. But guess what folks were doing.
I saw him one after another, that phone came up
(41:14):
to get a recording, to get a picture. I'm just like,
can I just get to the freeway so I can
get to work, please, I just want to get to work.
I just want to get so now we get back
to work the business that is the National Basketball Association.
