(00:56):
that big NFL MVP conversation coming up in a couple
of seconds, But first, this really big big news out
of baseball tonight. You thought we were done with the
whole show Heyo tani uh Epei Mizuhara gambling scandal that
that took over spring training and the game last year,
the opening season overseas they had last year, and it
(01:18):
kind of and it was such a huge deal, and
by the middle of the season it was, oh, yeah,
it's gone, the Dodgers are gonna win the World Series.
Well now it's come back. And and no matter where
you are on this story, when you hear that, oh
Ipe Misuhar, who was who was show Heyo Tani's longtime
translator was in debt, A lot of gambling debts that
that you know, was money from show Hey to pay.
(01:38):
You had a lot of people who would say, uh,
show Hey had to know something, right, he had to know.
There's no way he didn't know anything. You had to
know something. Maybe they didn't say it just like that,
but it sounds better when I do that voice. So
you had to know something because you picture someone who's
saying that and then like either smoking a cigarette or
taking a drink of whiskey, and guy had to know
something like you're Ron White, you know, I'm just gonna.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Smoke, Oh.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Big draft, I mean, which is which is really a
genius thing because then your stuff seems even funnier if
you do it.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
And then you take a take.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
A drag off a cigarette like that on a dramatic pause,
like you could say things that aren't that funny, but
then you puff a cigarette, it sounds funnier. It's like
when you put the f wort in the middle of
of a comedic routine. It might not be funny, but
if you put enough fwords and people are gonna laugh, or.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
If you do it sporadically, so it really hits the
the emphasis of the joke. Hmm, right, you can't. He
can't do it too often because then you're you're just
a potty mouth.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
You could curse it. You do both, if you do.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Both well, chuck and whiskey.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
He had to know. He had to know.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
He had to know.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
He had to know. Well.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
According to federal prosecutors Big from the Big Court filing today, Uh,
they are recommending a fifty seven month prison sentence for Epa,
and they released an audio recording in which he is
impersonating Otani in an attempt to wire money from Otani's
bank account the needle.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
I mean he's he said, I don't have time to
jet with you today.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
I mean he he's. I mean there's.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Audio him like on the phone here, you know, transfer
this money. And I guess you know you can't just
call on the phone and say, Trent, this is not
nineteen eighty six. You can't just say, oh, let's cancel
this or transfer this, Like he's got to have access
to to to credit cards and different things, different bits
of information, so we can be able to say that.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
But the audio him impersonating, show Tony, we're for him,
I mean fifty seven months, that's unreal.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
One of one of the data points was that while
talking with a customer service rep, they do the thing
of like, I'm gonna send you a code. Read meet
the code.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Miss O'Hara had said he needed two hundred thousand dollars
for a car loan.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Who am I speaking with?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
The bank employee asked in the recording show Heyotani mits
O'Hara replied, miss Horror told the bank employee he could
not log into online banking. I tried to make a
wire train for a couple of days ago. They told
me that's probably the reason they transferred me to this number.
Then he gets the six digit code that was texting
him by the banker for two factor authentication. He said,
(04:10):
I need her, I need you to send me two
hundred thousand dollars for a car loan. Hey, what's your
relationship to the paye he's my friend. Have you met
your friend in person? Yes, many times. I only asked
this because we haven't been able to verify the transaction,
and so will there be any future wires to your friend?
The agent said, possibly says he paid like this is
like this is like how you'd see it in a movie,
(04:32):
Like how he's doing here. I got the numbers, I
got this, send it to me. I got a car
loan from my friend. I know my friend. Like she's
asking tons of questions. It's a big amount of money,
so it feels like she's, you know, she's really doing
going to the wall about this and and and and
making sure that hey, I'm asking all the right questions.
A big amount of money is this? But man to
call up on the phone and to impersonate and do
(04:55):
try to impersonate, showing how Tani like I can't get
over you know, how how deep you are in and
how you think I can get away with it. This
is the level on that I'm going to call it.
Pretend I'm him, and that's how I'm going to get
this money that I need to pay off these gambling debts.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Well, but that's the argument on the other side is
that it's you know, because they're trying to get the
court sympathy and lean into you know, its addictive behavior,
and he couldn't help himself. And they're like, well, what
about the baseball cards? What about the cars? What about
all of the other money that you're spending that isn't
going towards gambling debts or being lost in a casino.
(05:32):
I mean, there's the part of the the brief is
that you know, they're they're going and having uh he's
gambling with people while other other baseball personnel, right, other
players and their agents and trainers and other things. So
it's a multi fast I mean, this is a TV
(05:53):
movie of the Week if there ever was one, with
all of these little extra you know, wrinkles and and
details that come out of here. But yeah, just absolutely
amazing when you start getting this fifty seven months.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Yeah, guys bringing the chair back for this guy.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Oh man, I'm picturing like Stanley Tucci from Pelican Brief,
you know, trying to impersonate John Hurt.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Where do you want to meet? Where do you want
to meet? Where do you want to meet?
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Oh that's showy, sholly, what's going on? But yeah, he
needs the money needs some money for a car.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Think about it, guys, all of these sentences that come down, right,
we follow a lot of local and national news and
big cases. It's like that's all they got. They got,
they got what this guy's getting fifty seven months recommended,
you're going to get for defraud and his friend over
gambling in a luxury car and trading car.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
I don't know for a fact. Yeah, I just know
it's true. He's getting the death pedal.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
The needle is coming.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
This is it, but it doesn't exist in that state.
Doesn't matter.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
They're bringing it back.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
They bringing it back back.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Exit at about a Fresca exit Swallen Dome, Jason Smith,
Mike Carmon Live from the Tirec dot Com studios. So
the finalist for NFL MV were announced today and the
final five are in order, Josh Allen, Saquon Barkley, Joe Burrow,
Jared Goff, and Lamara Jackson. I say that in order
(07:12):
because it's alphabetical. Where was Aaron Rodgers? He's sixth, He's right,
he just missed.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
He just okay.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
So Josh Allen, Saquon Barkley, Joe Burrow, Jared Goff, and
Lamar Jackson. If we were voting for the NFL MVP
and it was up until now, right, let's just say
this is the cutoff right right now, outside of the
divisional round into the AFC and NFC Championship game. If
you're saying this is where the cutoff is, who's the
NFL MVP this year? The NFL MVP is not on
(07:42):
this list right now. I've told you for a long time.
Look Saquon Barkley's the MVP of the NFL. Look at
what he's done this year. It's it's incredible. But as
you've seen in the playoffs, hey, he's got some big
holes to run through. This Eagles offensive line still doesn't
seem to miss Jason Kelsey, the guy retired, and still
they got a two thousand yard running back that was
one sitting out game away from having more yards rushing
(08:04):
than Eric Dickerson. Right, that's a huge deal for the
offensive line. There's no games where he stopped. He is
a bigger running back. He is not fair. He's not
Jamior Gibbs where you just need that little crease and
he's in it and he's gone. No, he needs to
have a good offensive line in front of him, even
in games when they can't throw the football, because all
of a sudden, Jalen Hurts become a game manager. He's
thorting for one hundred and twenty yards a week. They
(08:26):
still are able to run the football. Now, I say
this because you're splitting hairs when you talk about NFL MVP.
But if you're saying, okay, here we are going to
the NFC Championship game, who's the NFL MVP. The MVP
is Jaden Daniels because you see these other guys on
the list. Jared Goff is home after a horrendous playoff game, losing,
oh by the way to Jaden Daniels. Right, Joe Burrow
(08:48):
didn't make the playoffs. Josh Allen has been good, hasn't
been unbelievable as in single handedly one game, though that
might happen this weekend. Lamar Jackson is home, going home
to Josh Allen, who's the guy that has the worst
supporting cast and still has his team one game away
from the Super Bowl in the season in which they're
starting over of all these all these finalists for MVP,
(09:11):
he's got the worst, the worst skill position players, offensive line,
all of it. And still Jaden Daniels is dynamic. He's
not a game manager. He's putting up huge numbers, and
he's a dual threat quarterback. And we talk all about yes,
he's got so much poise and all, yes, you're pois
with him.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Until you were blue in the face.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I know, I get it. He has poise. It's like
Ryan Fitzpatrick's a smart quarterback. I understand poise is a veteran.
We get he doesn't get that excited. Yeah, all of
these things. If you're voting now for the NFL MVP,
it's Jaden Daniels.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Now you're not.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
You're voting to the end of the year, which mean
you always say, oh, it's a change count the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Yeah, okay, I'm with you on that.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
But right now, if you're going up until now, Jaden
Daniels is your MVP.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Look at you. I love your excitement over this. I'd
like to make my statement when it comes to Barkley. Remember,
Derrick Henry was everybody's flavor for a couple of weeks
and then it went back to Lamar Jackson or going
back to Josh Jacobs in Green Bay. Remember all three
(10:11):
of those teams had really good offensive lines, and they
were all pretty good before those guys showed up. Take
nothing from what I mean. They had fantastic seasons, no
question about it. Eagles were able to run the ball
with Gainwell and Boston Scott and a cast of thousands
over the last couple of years behind that offensive line.
(10:33):
So Barkley next level two thousand yards, but the base
was already pretty strong. Likewise, in Baltimore, they finally got
Ronnie Stanley to get through his season. Maybe he's the
real MVP of it all. And don't forget they were
also a thirteen win team a year ago and then
Green Bay was a playoff team. Remember they ousted Dan
(10:54):
Quinn When Jordan Love posted that one hundred and fifty
eight point three Jade and.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Daniel Viigin is still hate dan Quinn? You see, I
don't hate it. Did you always find a way to
side swipe?
Speaker 6 (11:04):
No no no, and yes you no no.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
No join line.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Side swipe no no no.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
All that is it's a motivation because you can have
one terrible day side. You can have a bad Thursday.
Right this day could be terrible for you. Maybe someone
forgot to call you, maybe you missed an appointment. Maybe
you were stuck in traffic all day. Maybe maybe your
burger was undercook and you were salty, they forgot your cheese.
(11:34):
I don't know. But tomorrow there's promise of a better day.
And Dan Quinn is that guy to show you that
there's promise for a better day. And I like you,
Jade Daniels pick. We've been talking about it a lot,
right top five right now. If you're going through the
NFL in terms of quarterbacks, you'd get him in there.
He'd be the the thumb or the pinky, depending on
which way you're counting it out. Right, Uh So we
(11:56):
we look at Jade and Daniels a magnificent season, he'll
win Rookie of the Year, and he still has the
opportunity to play for bigger stakes. And right now, I
think there's a lot of the football world, and let's
face it, after the Eagle, after the Philadelphia mayor and
her spelling error, and the fact that you've seen the
(12:16):
Eagles the last couple of.
Speaker 6 (12:17):
Years and you don't know what happens with Nick Sirianni.
Isn't that part of what you're rooting about this week? Hey,
there could still be chaos and Philly. So yeah, Jaden
Daniels has become everybody. He's all American at this point.
And sure, if you've cast the vote, including what you've
seen thus far from the wild card and division games,
yeah you might go over the top. But I picked
(12:38):
out one before the season. I'm not stopping now.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Exit out about to Frasca, exit Swollen Dome. If you
went through now, it's Daniels and it's not even close.
He's not even on the list.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Of How abouty Cliff Kingsbury? Would you go hire him?
Forget about Schottenheimer, don't get Kingsbury.
Speaker 1 (12:55):

The Jason Smith Show with My best friend Mike Harmon
Live from the tirerac dot com studios.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
Well, the NFL star we've.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Been waiting to hear from for four days has finally
broken his silen once. We got that in a couple
of minutes. But the Oscar nominations came out today, and
you know, look, every year the Oscars, you know, the
movie it gets a little bit more difficult to follow
and a little bit more difficult to really get in
on because of the you know, look the way Hollywood
is now with so much stuff coming on streaming and
(15:18):
and and the box office not being what it was.
It's just the Oscars is just awkward now, and it's weird.
But hey, everybody comes out wants to see what's going
to be Best Picture. And all the nominees are out
today and I'm gonna give you my hot take right now.
You ready for my hot take? On the Oscars.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You ready, Yeah, let's go right.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
So, of all the nominees who were out there for
Best Picture, I had all forty five nominees for Best Picture.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
I'm a big believer in momentum and momentum for movies
that pick up enough steam with enough time to put
it over the finish line. And it's it's tough because
it was a little bit of a late ish momentum.
But I think there's too much behind it now. And
you saw all the nominations that are there for acting,
It's nominated for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress.
(16:08):
My goodness, Marnica Barbara goes from being Phoenix in Top
Gun Maverick and now she's nominated for Best Supporting Actress.
But I'll tell you this, a complete unknown is gonna
win Best Picture. There's just too there's just too much
of a of an of an it factor around it
right now. And there's lots of you know, there's lots
of other movies there. I mean, I really hope to
me more wins for the substance, you know, And she
(16:29):
probably will win Best Actress because it's gonna be a
real big lifetime Achievement Award for all the money she's
made Hollywood over the past thirty thirty five years. That's
kind of what they like to do, so I think
she'll probably win for that. I'd love to see that
win Best Picture. But I just feel like when there's
a train coming through, you have to understand that. And
a complete unknown is getting incredible reviews the acting. It's
(16:49):
nominated for Best Director, so you know it's one of
the real top five. When it comes down to it,
A complete and known is gonna win Best Picture.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah, one of the I think I've seen half of
the nominees at this point. The goal is to see
the rest of them. There's one that I've been told
is a terrible, terrible movie.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
Wicked. Got the Wicked Yeah, no, no, don't know.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
I saw that it was fine, but having seen the
stage show multiple times, it didn't get me anything I
hadn't already seen. It gave me nothing.
Speaker 4 (17:16):
Yeah, you know, and look and and here's that for gold.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Bloom as the Wizards, and even you know, look.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
And even Jeff go Look. And here's the thing about
the movie, right, here's the thing about Wicked. All these
all these nominations, and I think what what the Academy
is doing is saying, Okay, we're gonna nominate a bunch,
but it's not really gonna win anything. Although I think
Ariana Grande is gonna wind up winning Best Supporting Actress,
but everything that's nominated for it's not gonna win because
it really it wasn't great. Like I think you see
(17:41):
the way it's being treated since it came out is
that it's not a great movie. It's really really long
and and and it looked like a souped up Descendants
for that. I don't mean the George plony. I mean
like I mean the you know, the the.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Mal and even yeah, Channel Original brought in to the core. Uh,
it just it just wasn't that great anger by the way.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
And the thing is like, you know, seeing all this attention,
and you know, Cynthia Revo's getting a lot of attention.
She has a phenomenal voice, and she is a fantastic actress.
You want to see a great Cynthia Rivo, go watch
The Outsider based on the Stephen King book. She is
a phenomenal actress. But I feel like Alphaba, I don't
know that she embodied it the way that she needed to.
(18:23):
I felt like she played it right down the middle,
because you know, hey, Alfab is a really tough ri
I mean, you're talking, but this is a role that
has been is a legendary role, right, and you want
to put your own spin on it. But I just
don't feel she didn't really jump off the screen at
me like and Goblin like goblm. We're seeing him doing
the same thing that we saw him do for the
last thirty years, like, Hey, I'm showing up with no
(18:44):
prep and I'm gonna be on the air, right, And
the guy playing Fierro is forty five years old read
he's supposed to be twenty five, right, So I wasn't
a big fan.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
And Cynthia Rivo is a phenomenal actress.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
She's incredibly talented, and she's got an amazing voice, and
her voice just blows the doors off of you in
this movie. But wise, I felt like this is a
role that needed presence, not being the conduit for everything else.
And I think that's kind of the way it was.
And she just didn't jump off the screen at me
like I thought she was going to. And I think
Wicked gets a lot of publicity because it was such
(19:14):
a big endeavor by Hollywood. They needed it to succeed. Otherwise,
what movies are you gonna go see? If oh, Wicked's good?
I mean, if they screw up Wicked, oh my god,
why am I going out to see movies anymore? So
I felt like they were artificially pumping it up because
it had issues right as it was really all the
different things I said. And so I look at Wicked
and I go, yeah, it's gonna get nominated for a lot,
but I don't know what actual wins it's gonna come
(19:37):
away with.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah, it's one that I'm like, Okay, saw it cool,
loved the musical. I'm sure going to one of the
sing alongs was a hell of a good time with
everybody singing off key and trying to hit their final
notes right in conjunction with what she was doing. So
that's fine. A lot of nominations for Amelia Perez. I
don't know anybody that liked the movie.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
That's what I haven't seen yet. That that's one because.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Time, so I'll have to see it. But and then
you know, I'm a Dylan guy. One of the early
as a teenager, I got the gift of the Bob
Dylan's songbook. That's how big a nerd I was. What
do you want? You want this? Nah? Give me the ad.
It's like nine hundred pages of lyrics and poems by
so I I mean a lifer and I love Shallow
(20:24):
Man the whole thing. But for me, biopics are tough
to say. You know what it is. Let's let's go
vote for that conclay. If I thought was overrated, just
go on down the line.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
But it's hard, it's not.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
But it's a substance until the third act. It fell
apart from me. But she was fantastic. The fact that
Quali didn't get nominated is kind of a slap in
the face because she was pretty magnificent in that role
as well. But I get it. You get ten for
Best Picture and you cap everything else in five.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Is still way too many.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
It's like, come on, you just please come see our movie.
Go back to the five. Go back to the five.
I mean, really, go back to the five. It's it's better.
It's been all the changes. You talk about something that
has changed for the worst the last twenty years, Like
every year the Oscars just gets a little.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Bit Wait, I thought it had been changed for good.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
Just ad see what you did there?
Speaker 3 (21:18):
Who I'm walking away? That's it very nice.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
I was Unfrosted nominated.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Unfrosted was not nominated.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
No, that was fantastic too. I mean, Hugh Grant should
have been nominated for being Tony the Tiger.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
And uh, Tony the Tiger, you Grant? Everybody clapped.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Yeah, but it's like, you know, a movie like Heretic
to me was better than a lot of the you know,
shock horror films that find their way into some of
these nominations and such. Uh. But all in you're trying
to celebrate and get people back onto their streaming services.
Uh and in some cases actually into a theater so
(21:59):
around as they can. It's a lot of Hey, this
guy will be there, so go shake his hand, kiss babies,
h and please come see the.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Movie Exit Out about a Fresca exit swollen dome. The
Jason Smith Show with Mike Carmen Live from the tire
rack dot Com studie. Jason, Yeah, what do you got, Frostburg.
It was Saving Bikini Bottom on the list.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
That just missed it missed?
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Was that not nominated for Best Animated?
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (22:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:22):
And and SpongeBob is nominated for Best Animated Director. The
Sandy Cheeks movie. Yes, Patrick got nominated for Best Director
for that.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
I did see Let's See, I saw a Flow. It's
a movie about the cat and his collection.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Now that's the movie about no that that's the that's
the biopic of the woman from progressive commercials and all
the money she's making.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
That's wild. Robot was pretty good. I enjoyed that. I
have not gotten a chance to watch Vengeance Most Foul.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
That's what this show should be called, Vengeance Most Foul?
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Are you Wallace or grom.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Vengeance most foul? You do like cheese, like Sonic and Knuckles.
We are listening from it now. We've been waiting for
the last four days to hear from Ravens tight end
Mark Andrews, who dropped the two point conversion that potentially
cost the Ravens the game on Sunday against the Bills.
Didn't talk after the game, didn't talk at the end
of season press conference, une of it. But we got
(23:18):
a statement from him finally today that he put out
on social media. I'll read a little bit of it
here in which he said, it's impossible to adequately express
how I feel. I am absolutely gutted by what happened
on Sunday. I'm devastated for my teammates, my coaches, and
Ravens fans. He goes on to say that this is
why it's taken me until now to collect my thoughts
(23:39):
and address this publicly, even though the shock and disappointment
were unlike anything I felt before. I refuse to let
the situation define me. I promise that this adversity will
only make me stronger and fuel us as we move forward.
So it's a big statement. You can tell he spends
a lot of time with this, like this is one
of those things where you write it out and you
check it like ten times. Okay, do I want to
post it? Do I want to post it? I understand.
(24:01):
I understand not knowing what to say after the game
on Sunday. I understand not being able to talk on Monday.
I understand how everybody in the locker room is looking
at you and if I am I gonna say the
right thing, or am I gonna say something because I'm
still deer in a headlights thousand yards stare that I'm
gonna say something that's misinterpreted, and I don't want I
don't want any of my teammates thinking any worse than
(24:22):
they already do because they know I dropped the patch.
You know how upset Lamar Jackson is he threw a
nice pass that's gotta be caught. I don't care what
Chris sim says. Right, it's a good pads you gotta
catch that ball.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Well, the double clutch and whatever else I'm about, Like,
there's a lot of the ball, right.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
So I understand. I'm not mad that Mark Andrews didn't talk.
I'm not mad that he didn't talk on Monday. I
completely understand it because I come away from this and
I say, I don't know how this doesn't consume you
as an athlete for the rest of your life. Now,
get a little dark here on it, but honestly, look,
how do big moments like this not consume you?
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Every day?
Speaker 1 (25:01):
You must think of a Scott Nord must think about
a missed field goal every single day. Pete Carroll thinks
about throwing the football and the goal line every single day. Right,
Mark Andrew's gonna think about that drop every single day.
And and right now you can tell he's trying to
find the right words and try to find the right
way to move forward, and he still just doesn't know.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
I'm not gonna let the fine him. I'm gonna do this.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
You're gonna think about it every day, And I don't
know how when you retire you're not gonna think about
it every day. Do you finally get to the point
where Okay, I've forgiven myself or it's still something that's
gonna nag at you because I get it, because something
like that would nag at me. You know, Look, I'm
just I'm just a youth coach, and I still think
back to games from time to time where man, if
we had just done this, or if I had done this.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Could we have one like like I like.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
The kids that I coach are like, oh we talk
about these days. Yeah, that was a game where this
and this happened to coach, how do you remember that ago?
Because I'm a coach, because we I live with these
games more than you do. You go, you know, you
guys play and you're young going on. You know, I
think about the you know, everything going on with the
sponsorships and with the with the moving forward and winning
tournaments and everything else and what it means and winning
the state championship and all this stuff. I live with this.
(26:06):
I still think of stuff. I should have done this.
I should have this person take that goal kick. I
should have this person do this, should have this person
batting here, I should have done And I still and
this is just youth sport. This, this is you know,
coaching girls who are between you know, eleven and fifteen
years old, right, this is I still think of this.
I can't imagine as a professional athlete when you are
maybe that short of the AFC Championship Game and maybe
(26:28):
the Super Bowl, how you deal with that. The only
the only thing I can say that might help is that, hey,
you didn't absolutely lose the game. Instead of going from
we're tied with a chance to win it, right, because
that's what it would have been. It's not like you
would have won the game and you lost because you
dropped it. The best case scenarios were tied with a
chance to win it, right, And Josh Allen still has
(26:49):
ninety seconds to get down the field. And I've seen
that movie many times, and you really thought the Ravens
defense is going to stop Josh Allen the last ninety seconds.
Potentially he could get that kick. Or let's just say
they miss it and you wind up overtime and then
it's anybody's game in overtime like it could have been.
That's the only thing I can say is that, Okay,
it wasn't one of those last second win or lose,
we move on and we didn't because of that. And
(27:11):
it's not like it was the AFC Championship game. It's
not like it was a super Bowl. That's the best
thing I can say is that we're still so many
more steps to winning that game and winning the championship.
But I get where it's at and and and if
you can think about that, that might help. But honestly,
I don't know how it doesn't consume anybody who is
a competitor that wants to win and loves games and
loves one wants to win because that's what they like
(27:33):
to do.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
I like to win.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I don't know how this isn't something that every day
I just have to find a way to find the
new normal, because now this is something that's going to
take up a large portion of my gray matter every
day for the rest of my life.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Yeah. No, I do like that you're trying to caveat
it out to make him feel better. To make Lamar
Jackson feel better. Look, his turnovers in the first half
don't go away magically because he had a great second half.
Talking about Lamar Jackson the peanut punch on Andrews and
not catching that two point conversion. Look, man, you can try.
(28:06):
We all make mistakes in our in our lives and
we try to rationalize it, excuse it whatever. While it
didn't lose you the game in that moment, Yeah, you
had a negligible chance of collecting an on side kick
and then you were gonna have to trust either Justin
Tucker or score a touchdown yourselves. Yeah, you lost the game. Like,
(28:29):
I hate to be that guy, but I gotta be
that guy. I can't silence that because you know what,
Mark Andrews is probably gonna think more like me rather
than being able to go, Oh, Josh Allen would have
scored on us anyway, Like.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
We've seen that so many like to get it that's
gonna happen, But I get it.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
I mean, they gave up twenty one points in the
first half, seven of those were because of the fumble
from Lamar Jackson short field, and then they gave up
six points in the second half, and I know, Bassett
hit the fifty one yarder and yeah, all things considered,
this is the guy that could win the MVP, and
he's done some miraculous things. But you gave yourself no
(29:08):
chance after dropping the ball, see what I did. I'm
not trying to kill Mark Andrew's here. It's unfortunate, all right,
because I wasn't mad he didn't talk. I guess in
the moment, it's like, wow, that's kind of odd that
you didn't. And then Monday that there wasn't enough from
the team, and you know, harbar whoever reaching out saying hey, Mark,
(29:28):
we need you to at least come and make a
statement just so we can move on and be done
with this. He's got one more year left on his deal.
I've seen everybody proposing all sorts of trades and whatever else.
The guy has, unfortunately had a difficult career in the playoffs.
Fumble what twenty nine catches in his eight games, which
(29:49):
is not a terrible average, but overall, you know, has
missed out on a couple of big moments when his
number has been called. But this one will live and yeah,
it consumes you. I mean, how many times hours after
the show I'm still pissed about. You know, some point
we didn't get It's like, oh, we gott have hammered
it better with this. This was in my notes, which
(30:11):
became chicken scratch and ineligible by the end of the night.
It's like, damn it. That would have really hammered it.
Or it was a good one liner that I wasn't
able to get off on you. So like all of
those things, you know, they stick with you whatever you
do for a living. But certainly athletes and coaches, Yeah,
you remember the losses more than the wins. That's the
(30:32):
age old adage, the way you could have maybe gotten
that one more victory, maybe extended your season. Because we're
also talking about adding extra money to everybody's coffers, right,
you know with the extra appearance, the extra game. Your owners,
if you're going to coast a home game, sure as
hell are kind of pissed because that's millions of dollars
they're not seeing off of that. So yeah, not to
(30:55):
mention all the fans and all of that stuff, Yeah,
I get that, I remember them too inside that locker room. Yeah,
that's tough to get past.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Exit out about a Fresco exit swollen dome the Jason
Smith's are with my car is just a bit of a
human moment when you think about.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Oh, you should talk, you should tell us why I drive?
Speaker 1 (31:11):
No, Yeah, the the the prison he is going to
have in his mind with this play in it is
going to be again, I don't know how you get
through it if you're an athlete. So many props to
be to athletes who have that kind of uh stick
touitiveness to be able to do that, because I really
I don't know how you do it.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Just real quick though, Jason. The last point, it's like,
if he did talk, what was he going to say?
I dropped the ball? I'm sorry, yeah, like there's really
nothing else then well.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
No, but then there's any questions.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Again, I asked this, and I don't want to say
the wrong thing again. He owes us nothing because what
he's got to deal with is way worse than that.
Way time, how to find out what's trending in the
wide world of sports from a woman who wants to
be on the wall at the Clipper game, that's right,
Monty Bolano swift, what's trending?
Speaker 4 (31:53):
That's right.
Speaker 7 (31:53):
I got to stretch though, and then when I go
to the wall.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
As we said, it's.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
A lot of work.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
Yeah, it'll work, and you got to you gotta give
it all.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
You gotta give it your all, you know, like if
you want me.
Speaker 7 (32:04):
Did you see when they played the Lakers and they
were holding Anthony like a big jumbohead of Anthony Davis
on a pair of razors and they were like shaving
his unibrow.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
That was so funny.
Speaker 7 (32:13):
That just was so funny and clever. That's what I
want to do. I want to shave Anthony Davis's unibrow.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
On the wall. That's what I want to do.
Speaker 7 (32:20):
Who doesn't want to do that?
Speaker 1 (32:22):
We're gonna save that drop for I want to shave
Anthony Davis's eyebrow on the wall.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
There we go, There we go.
Speaker 7 (32:27):
Please do Alex, don't Speaking of Anthony Davis. He's got
sixteen points and seven rebounds, and the Lakers are beating
the Celtics seventy four to sixty two. Lakers outscored them
in the first and second quarter. Right now, the Celtics
trying to make a little push in the third. Five
minutes to go in the third of that game, the
Warriors are back on top of the Bulls, This one's
(32:47):
also been back and forth, eighty one seventy six, four
minutes to go in the third quarter.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Of that one.
Speaker 7 (32:52):
At halftime, the Clippers are beating the Wizards sixty three
to forty one. James Harden seven points, six rebound, seven assists.
After a nice day yesterday, the Mavericks outscored the Thunder
one twenty.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
One to one fifteen.
Speaker 3 (33:05):
PJ.
Speaker 7 (33:05):
Washington had twenty two points and nineteen rebounds for Dallas.
But not all bad for Thunder, because for the Thunder,
because the fan hit the half court shot and got
twenty thousand dollars. So something happened in Okay see that
they could cheer about. The Bucks crushed they heat one
twenty five to ninety six. Damian Lillard just I have
a triple double twenty nine points, nine rebounds, and eleven assists.
(33:26):
The Nuggets held on to beat the Kings one thirty
two to one twenty three. Nicola Jokic thirty five points,
twenty two rebounds, seventeen assists. In men's college troops, Maryland

The Hurricanes scored five times in the second period and
beat the Blue Jackets seven four for a fourth straight win.
Right now, the Capitals are beating the krack in one
(33:48):
zero late in the second period.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
No, it was not alex.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
Oovechkin who scored that.
Speaker 7 (33:51):
In the NFL, so I mentioned that Diana Rusimi, part
of the athletic tweeted about maybe an hour ago now
that Liam Cohen is expected to be named the next
head coach of the Jaguars, pending final negotiations.
Speaker 4 (34:02):
Well, Rick Stroud, who is a Bucks.

Beat writer, confirms that Cohen has informed.
Speaker 7 (34:07):
The Bucks that he has agreed to become the Jaguars
head coach.
Speaker 4 (34:11):
So this is all circulating.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
He had a contract extension with the Bucks on his
desk and he didn't sign it.
Speaker 7 (34:17):
Didn't and you would have been the highest paid coordinator
and he didn't sign it.

(00:56):
that big NFL MVP conversation coming up in a couple
of seconds, But first, this really big big news out
of baseball tonight. You thought we were done with the
whole show Heyo tani uh Epei Mizuhara gambling scandal that
that took over spring training and the game last year,
the opening season overseas they had last year, and it
(01:18):
kind of and it was such a huge deal, and
by the middle of the season it was, oh, yeah,
it's gone, the Dodgers are gonna win the World Series.
Well now it's come back. And and no matter where
you are on this story, when you hear that, oh
Ipe Misuhar, who was who was show Heyo Tani's longtime
translator was in debt, A lot of gambling debts that
that you know, was money from show Hey to pay.
(01:38):
You had a lot of people who would say, uh,
show Hey had to know something, right, he had to know.
There's no way he didn't know anything. You had to
know something. Maybe they didn't say it just like that,
but it sounds better when I do that voice. So
you had to know something because you picture someone who's
saying that and then like either smoking a cigarette or
taking a drink of whiskey, and guy had to know
something like you're Ron White, you know, I'm just gonna.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Smoke, Oh.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Big draft, I mean, which is which is really a
genius thing because then your stuff seems even funnier if
you do it.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
And then you take a take.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
A drag off a cigarette like that on a dramatic pause,
like you could say things that aren't that funny, but
then you puff a cigarette, it sounds funnier. It's like
when you put the f wort in the middle of
of a comedic routine. It might not be funny, but
if you put enough fwords and people are gonna laugh, or.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
If you do it sporadically, so it really hits the
the emphasis of the joke. Hmm, right, you can't. He
can't do it too often because then you're you're just
a potty mouth.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
You could curse it. You do both, if you do.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Both well, chuck and whiskey.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
He had to know. He had to know.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
He had to know.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
He had to know. Well.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
According to federal prosecutors Big from the Big Court filing today, Uh,
they are recommending a fifty seven month prison sentence for Epa,
and they released an audio recording in which he is
impersonating Otani in an attempt to wire money from Otani's
bank account the needle.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
I mean he's he said, I don't have time to
jet with you today.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
I mean he he's. I mean there's.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Audio him like on the phone here, you know, transfer
this money. And I guess you know you can't just
call on the phone and say, Trent, this is not
nineteen eighty six. You can't just say, oh, let's cancel
this or transfer this, Like he's got to have access
to to to credit cards and different things, different bits
of information, so we can be able to say that.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
But the audio him impersonating, show Tony, we're for him,
I mean fifty seven months, that's unreal.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
One of one of the data points was that while
talking with a customer service rep, they do the thing
of like, I'm gonna send you a code. Read meet
the code.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Miss O'Hara had said he needed two hundred thousand dollars
for a car loan.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Who am I speaking with?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
The bank employee asked in the recording show Heyotani mits
O'Hara replied, miss Horror told the bank employee he could
not log into online banking. I tried to make a
wire train for a couple of days ago. They told
me that's probably the reason they transferred me to this number.
Then he gets the six digit code that was texting
him by the banker for two factor authentication. He said,
(04:10):
I need her, I need you to send me two
hundred thousand dollars for a car loan. Hey, what's your
relationship to the paye he's my friend. Have you met
your friend in person? Yes, many times. I only asked
this because we haven't been able to verify the transaction,
and so will there be any future wires to your friend?
The agent said, possibly says he paid like this is
like this is like how you'd see it in a movie,
(04:32):
Like how he's doing here. I got the numbers, I
got this, send it to me. I got a car
loan from my friend. I know my friend. Like she's
asking tons of questions. It's a big amount of money,
so it feels like she's, you know, she's really doing
going to the wall about this and and and and
making sure that hey, I'm asking all the right questions.
A big amount of money is this? But man to
call up on the phone and to impersonate and do
(04:55):
try to impersonate, showing how Tani like I can't get
over you know, how how deep you are in and
how you think I can get away with it. This
is the level on that I'm going to call it.
Pretend I'm him, and that's how I'm going to get
this money that I need to pay off these gambling debts.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Well, but that's the argument on the other side is
that it's you know, because they're trying to get the
court sympathy and lean into you know, its addictive behavior,
and he couldn't help himself. And they're like, well, what
about the baseball cards? What about the cars? What about
all of the other money that you're spending that isn't
going towards gambling debts or being lost in a casino.
(05:32):
I mean, there's the part of the the brief is
that you know, they're they're going and having uh he's
gambling with people while other other baseball personnel, right, other
players and their agents and trainers and other things. So
it's a multi fast I mean, this is a TV
(05:53):
movie of the Week if there ever was one, with
all of these little extra you know, wrinkles and and
details that come out of here. But yeah, just absolutely
amazing when you start getting this fifty seven months.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Yeah, guys bringing the chair back for this guy.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Oh man, I'm picturing like Stanley Tucci from Pelican Brief,
you know, trying to impersonate John Hurt.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Where do you want to meet? Where do you want
to meet? Where do you want to meet?
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Oh that's showy, sholly, what's going on? But yeah, he
needs the money needs some money for a car.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Think about it, guys, all of these sentences that come down, right,
we follow a lot of local and national news and
big cases. It's like that's all they got. They got,
they got what this guy's getting fifty seven months recommended,
you're going to get for defraud and his friend over
gambling in a luxury car and trading car.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
I don't know for a fact. Yeah, I just know
it's true. He's getting the death pedal.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
The needle is coming.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
This is it, but it doesn't exist in that state.
Doesn't matter.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
They're bringing it back.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
They bringing it back back.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Exit at about a Fresca exit Swallen Dome, Jason Smith,
Mike Carmon Live from the Tirec dot Com studios. So
the finalist for NFL MV were announced today and the
final five are in order, Josh Allen, Saquon Barkley, Joe Burrow,
Jared Goff, and Lamara Jackson. I say that in order
(07:12):
because it's alphabetical. Where was Aaron Rodgers? He's sixth, He's right,
he just missed.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
He just okay.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
So Josh Allen, Saquon Barkley, Joe Burrow, Jared Goff, and
Lamar Jackson. If we were voting for the NFL MVP
and it was up until now, right, let's just say
this is the cutoff right right now, outside of the
divisional round into the AFC and NFC Championship game. If
you're saying this is where the cutoff is, who's the
NFL MVP this year? The NFL MVP is not on
(07:42):
this list right now. I've told you for a long time.
Look Saquon Barkley's the MVP of the NFL. Look at
what he's done this year. It's it's incredible. But as
you've seen in the playoffs, hey, he's got some big
holes to run through. This Eagles offensive line still doesn't
seem to miss Jason Kelsey, the guy retired, and still
they got a two thousand yard running back that was
one sitting out game away from having more yards rushing
(08:04):
than Eric Dickerson. Right, that's a huge deal for the
offensive line. There's no games where he stopped. He is
a bigger running back. He is not fair. He's not
Jamior Gibbs where you just need that little crease and
he's in it and he's gone. No, he needs to
have a good offensive line in front of him, even
in games when they can't throw the football, because all
of a sudden, Jalen Hurts become a game manager. He's
thorting for one hundred and twenty yards a week. They
(08:26):
still are able to run the football. Now, I say
this because you're splitting hairs when you talk about NFL MVP.
But if you're saying, okay, here we are going to
the NFC Championship game, who's the NFL MVP. The MVP
is Jaden Daniels because you see these other guys on
the list. Jared Goff is home after a horrendous playoff game, losing,
oh by the way to Jaden Daniels. Right, Joe Burrow
(08:48):
didn't make the playoffs. Josh Allen has been good, hasn't
been unbelievable as in single handedly one game, though that
might happen this weekend. Lamar Jackson is home, going home
to Josh Allen, who's the guy that has the worst
supporting cast and still has his team one game away
from the Super Bowl in the season in which they're
starting over of all these all these finalists for MVP,
(09:11):
he's got the worst, the worst skill position players, offensive line,
all of it. And still Jaden Daniels is dynamic. He's
not a game manager. He's putting up huge numbers, and
he's a dual threat quarterback. And we talk all about yes,
he's got so much poise and all, yes, you're pois
with him.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Until you were blue in the face.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I know, I get it. He has poise. It's like
Ryan Fitzpatrick's a smart quarterback. I understand poise is a veteran.
We get he doesn't get that excited. Yeah, all of
these things. If you're voting now for the NFL MVP,
it's Jaden Daniels.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Now you're not.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
You're voting to the end of the year, which mean
you always say, oh, it's a change count the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Yeah, okay, I'm with you on that.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
But right now, if you're going up until now, Jaden
Daniels is your MVP.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Look at you. I love your excitement over this. I'd
like to make my statement when it comes to Barkley. Remember,
Derrick Henry was everybody's flavor for a couple of weeks
and then it went back to Lamar Jackson or going
back to Josh Jacobs in Green Bay. Remember all three
(10:11):
of those teams had really good offensive lines, and they
were all pretty good before those guys showed up. Take
nothing from what I mean. They had fantastic seasons, no
question about it. Eagles were able to run the ball
with Gainwell and Boston Scott and a cast of thousands
over the last couple of years behind that offensive line.
(10:33):
So Barkley next level two thousand yards, but the base
was already pretty strong. Likewise, in Baltimore, they finally got
Ronnie Stanley to get through his season. Maybe he's the
real MVP of it all. And don't forget they were
also a thirteen win team a year ago and then
Green Bay was a playoff team. Remember they ousted Dan
(10:54):
Quinn When Jordan Love posted that one hundred and fifty
eight point three Jade and.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Daniel Viigin is still hate dan Quinn? You see, I
don't hate it. Did you always find a way to
side swipe?
Speaker 6 (11:04):
No no no, and yes you no no.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
No join line.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Side swipe no no no.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
All that is it's a motivation because you can have
one terrible day side. You can have a bad Thursday.
Right this day could be terrible for you. Maybe someone
forgot to call you, maybe you missed an appointment. Maybe
you were stuck in traffic all day. Maybe maybe your
burger was undercook and you were salty, they forgot your cheese.
(11:34):
I don't know. But tomorrow there's promise of a better day.
And Dan Quinn is that guy to show you that
there's promise for a better day. And I like you,
Jade Daniels pick. We've been talking about it a lot,
right top five right now. If you're going through the
NFL in terms of quarterbacks, you'd get him in there.
He'd be the the thumb or the pinky, depending on
which way you're counting it out. Right, Uh So we
(11:56):
we look at Jade and Daniels a magnificent season, he'll
win Rookie of the Year, and he still has the
opportunity to play for bigger stakes. And right now, I
think there's a lot of the football world, and let's
face it, after the Eagle, after the Philadelphia mayor and
her spelling error, and the fact that you've seen the
(12:16):
Eagles the last couple of.
Speaker 6 (12:17):
Years and you don't know what happens with Nick Sirianni.
Isn't that part of what you're rooting about this week? Hey,
there could still be chaos and Philly. So yeah, Jaden
Daniels has become everybody. He's all American at this point.
And sure, if you've cast the vote, including what you've
seen thus far from the wild card and division games,
yeah you might go over the top. But I picked
(12:38):
out one before the season. I'm not stopping now.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Exit out about to Frasca, exit Swollen Dome. If you
went through now, it's Daniels and it's not even close.
He's not even on the list.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Of How abouty Cliff Kingsbury? Would you go hire him?
Forget about Schottenheimer, don't get Kingsbury.
Speaker 1 (12:55):

The Jason Smith Show with My best friend Mike Harmon
Live from the tirerac dot com studios.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
Well, the NFL star we've.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Been waiting to hear from for four days has finally
broken his silen once. We got that in a couple
of minutes. But the Oscar nominations came out today, and
you know, look, every year the Oscars, you know, the
movie it gets a little bit more difficult to follow
and a little bit more difficult to really get in
on because of the you know, look the way Hollywood
is now with so much stuff coming on streaming and
(15:18):
and and the box office not being what it was.
It's just the Oscars is just awkward now, and it's weird.
But hey, everybody comes out wants to see what's going
to be Best Picture. And all the nominees are out
today and I'm gonna give you my hot take right now.
You ready for my hot take? On the Oscars.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You ready, Yeah, let's go right.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
So, of all the nominees who were out there for
Best Picture, I had all forty five nominees for Best Picture.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
I'm a big believer in momentum and momentum for movies
that pick up enough steam with enough time to put
it over the finish line. And it's it's tough because
it was a little bit of a late ish momentum.
But I think there's too much behind it now. And
you saw all the nominations that are there for acting,
It's nominated for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress.
(16:08):
My goodness, Marnica Barbara goes from being Phoenix in Top
Gun Maverick and now she's nominated for Best Supporting Actress.
But I'll tell you this, a complete unknown is gonna
win Best Picture. There's just too there's just too much
of a of an of an it factor around it
right now. And there's lots of you know, there's lots
of other movies there. I mean, I really hope to
me more wins for the substance, you know, And she
(16:29):
probably will win Best Actress because it's gonna be a
real big lifetime Achievement Award for all the money she's
made Hollywood over the past thirty thirty five years. That's
kind of what they like to do, so I think
she'll probably win for that. I'd love to see that
win Best Picture. But I just feel like when there's
a train coming through, you have to understand that. And
a complete unknown is getting incredible reviews the acting. It's
(16:49):
nominated for Best Director, so you know it's one of
the real top five. When it comes down to it,
A complete and known is gonna win Best Picture.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah, one of the I think I've seen half of
the nominees at this point. The goal is to see
the rest of them. There's one that I've been told
is a terrible, terrible movie.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
Wicked. Got the Wicked Yeah, no, no, don't know.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
I saw that it was fine, but having seen the
stage show multiple times, it didn't get me anything I
hadn't already seen. It gave me nothing.
Speaker 4 (17:16):
Yeah, you know, and look and and here's that for gold.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Bloom as the Wizards, and even you know, look.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
And even Jeff go Look. And here's the thing about
the movie, right, here's the thing about Wicked. All these
all these nominations, and I think what what the Academy
is doing is saying, Okay, we're gonna nominate a bunch,
but it's not really gonna win anything. Although I think
Ariana Grande is gonna wind up winning Best Supporting Actress,
but everything that's nominated for it's not gonna win because
it really it wasn't great. Like I think you see
(17:41):
the way it's being treated since it came out is
that it's not a great movie. It's really really long
and and and it looked like a souped up Descendants
for that. I don't mean the George plony. I mean
like I mean the you know, the the.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Mal and even yeah, Channel Original brought in to the core. Uh,
it just it just wasn't that great anger by the way.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
And the thing is like, you know, seeing all this attention,
and you know, Cynthia Revo's getting a lot of attention.
She has a phenomenal voice, and she is a fantastic actress.
You want to see a great Cynthia Rivo, go watch
The Outsider based on the Stephen King book. She is
a phenomenal actress. But I feel like Alphaba, I don't
know that she embodied it the way that she needed to.
(18:23):
I felt like she played it right down the middle,
because you know, hey, Alfab is a really tough ri
I mean, you're talking, but this is a role that
has been is a legendary role, right, and you want
to put your own spin on it. But I just
don't feel she didn't really jump off the screen at
me like and Goblin like goblm. We're seeing him doing
the same thing that we saw him do for the
last thirty years, like, Hey, I'm showing up with no
(18:44):
prep and I'm gonna be on the air, right, And
the guy playing Fierro is forty five years old read
he's supposed to be twenty five, right, So I wasn't
a big fan.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
And Cynthia Rivo is a phenomenal actress.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
She's incredibly talented, and she's got an amazing voice, and
her voice just blows the doors off of you in
this movie. But wise, I felt like this is a
role that needed presence, not being the conduit for everything else.
And I think that's kind of the way it was.
And she just didn't jump off the screen at me
like I thought she was going to. And I think
Wicked gets a lot of publicity because it was such
(19:14):
a big endeavor by Hollywood. They needed it to succeed. Otherwise,
what movies are you gonna go see? If oh, Wicked's good?
I mean, if they screw up Wicked, oh my god,
why am I going out to see movies anymore? So
I felt like they were artificially pumping it up because
it had issues right as it was really all the
different things I said. And so I look at Wicked
and I go, yeah, it's gonna get nominated for a lot,
but I don't know what actual wins it's gonna come
(19:37):
away with.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah, it's one that I'm like, Okay, saw it cool,
loved the musical. I'm sure going to one of the
sing alongs was a hell of a good time with
everybody singing off key and trying to hit their final
notes right in conjunction with what she was doing. So
that's fine. A lot of nominations for Amelia Perez. I
don't know anybody that liked the movie.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
That's what I haven't seen yet. That that's one because.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Time, so I'll have to see it. But and then
you know, I'm a Dylan guy. One of the early
as a teenager, I got the gift of the Bob
Dylan's songbook. That's how big a nerd I was. What
do you want? You want this? Nah? Give me the ad.
It's like nine hundred pages of lyrics and poems by
so I I mean a lifer and I love Shallow
(20:24):
Man the whole thing. But for me, biopics are tough
to say. You know what it is. Let's let's go
vote for that conclay. If I thought was overrated, just
go on down the line.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
But it's hard, it's not.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
But it's a substance until the third act. It fell
apart from me. But she was fantastic. The fact that
Quali didn't get nominated is kind of a slap in
the face because she was pretty magnificent in that role
as well. But I get it. You get ten for
Best Picture and you cap everything else in five.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Is still way too many.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
It's like, come on, you just please come see our movie.
Go back to the five. Go back to the five.
I mean, really, go back to the five. It's it's better.
It's been all the changes. You talk about something that
has changed for the worst the last twenty years, Like
every year the Oscars just gets a little.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Bit Wait, I thought it had been changed for good.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
Just ad see what you did there?
Speaker 3 (21:18):
Who I'm walking away? That's it very nice.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
I was Unfrosted nominated.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Unfrosted was not nominated.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
No, that was fantastic too. I mean, Hugh Grant should
have been nominated for being Tony the Tiger.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
And uh, Tony the Tiger, you Grant? Everybody clapped.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Yeah, but it's like, you know, a movie like Heretic
to me was better than a lot of the you know,
shock horror films that find their way into some of
these nominations and such. Uh. But all in you're trying
to celebrate and get people back onto their streaming services.
Uh and in some cases actually into a theater so
(21:59):
around as they can. It's a lot of Hey, this
guy will be there, so go shake his hand, kiss babies,
h and please come see the.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Movie Exit Out about a Fresca exit swollen dome. The
Jason Smith Show with Mike Carmen Live from the tire
rack dot Com studie. Jason, Yeah, what do you got, Frostburg.
It was Saving Bikini Bottom on the list.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
That just missed it missed?
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Was that not nominated for Best Animated?
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (22:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:22):
And and SpongeBob is nominated for Best Animated Director. The
Sandy Cheeks movie. Yes, Patrick got nominated for Best Director
for that.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
I did see Let's See, I saw a Flow. It's
a movie about the cat and his collection.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Now that's the movie about no that that's the that's
the biopic of the woman from progressive commercials and all
the money she's making.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
That's wild. Robot was pretty good. I enjoyed that. I
have not gotten a chance to watch Vengeance Most Foul.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
That's what this show should be called, Vengeance Most Foul?
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Are you Wallace or grom.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Vengeance most foul? You do like cheese, like Sonic and Knuckles.
We are listening from it now. We've been waiting for
the last four days to hear from Ravens tight end
Mark Andrews, who dropped the two point conversion that potentially
cost the Ravens the game on Sunday against the Bills.
Didn't talk after the game, didn't talk at the end
of season press conference, une of it. But we got
(23:18):
a statement from him finally today that he put out
on social media. I'll read a little bit of it
here in which he said, it's impossible to adequately express
how I feel. I am absolutely gutted by what happened
on Sunday. I'm devastated for my teammates, my coaches, and
Ravens fans. He goes on to say that this is
why it's taken me until now to collect my thoughts
(23:39):
and address this publicly, even though the shock and disappointment
were unlike anything I felt before. I refuse to let
the situation define me. I promise that this adversity will
only make me stronger and fuel us as we move forward.
So it's a big statement. You can tell he spends
a lot of time with this, like this is one
of those things where you write it out and you
check it like ten times. Okay, do I want to
post it? Do I want to post it? I understand.
(24:01):
I understand not knowing what to say after the game
on Sunday. I understand not being able to talk on Monday.
I understand how everybody in the locker room is looking
at you and if I am I gonna say the
right thing, or am I gonna say something because I'm
still deer in a headlights thousand yards stare that I'm
gonna say something that's misinterpreted, and I don't want I
don't want any of my teammates thinking any worse than
(24:22):
they already do because they know I dropped the patch.
You know how upset Lamar Jackson is he threw a
nice pass that's gotta be caught. I don't care what
Chris sim says. Right, it's a good pads you gotta
catch that ball.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Well, the double clutch and whatever else I'm about, Like,
there's a lot of the ball, right.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
So I understand. I'm not mad that Mark Andrews didn't talk.
I'm not mad that he didn't talk on Monday. I
completely understand it because I come away from this and
I say, I don't know how this doesn't consume you
as an athlete for the rest of your life. Now,
get a little dark here on it, but honestly, look,
how do big moments like this not consume you?
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Every day?
Speaker 1 (25:01):
You must think of a Scott Nord must think about
a missed field goal every single day. Pete Carroll thinks
about throwing the football and the goal line every single day. Right,
Mark Andrew's gonna think about that drop every single day.
And and right now you can tell he's trying to
find the right words and try to find the right
way to move forward, and he still just doesn't know.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
I'm not gonna let the fine him. I'm gonna do this.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
You're gonna think about it every day, And I don't
know how when you retire you're not gonna think about
it every day. Do you finally get to the point
where Okay, I've forgiven myself or it's still something that's
gonna nag at you because I get it, because something
like that would nag at me. You know, Look, I'm
just I'm just a youth coach, and I still think
back to games from time to time where man, if
we had just done this, or if I had done this.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Could we have one like like I like.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
The kids that I coach are like, oh we talk
about these days. Yeah, that was a game where this
and this happened to coach, how do you remember that ago?
Because I'm a coach, because we I live with these
games more than you do. You go, you know, you
guys play and you're young going on. You know, I
think about the you know, everything going on with the
sponsorships and with the with the moving forward and winning
tournaments and everything else and what it means and winning
the state championship and all this stuff. I live with this.
(26:06):
I still think of stuff. I should have done this.
I should have this person take that goal kick. I
should have this person do this, should have this person
batting here, I should have done And I still and
this is just youth sport. This, this is you know,
coaching girls who are between you know, eleven and fifteen
years old, right, this is I still think of this.
I can't imagine as a professional athlete when you are
maybe that short of the AFC Championship Game and maybe
(26:28):
the Super Bowl, how you deal with that. The only
the only thing I can say that might help is that, hey,
you didn't absolutely lose the game. Instead of going from
we're tied with a chance to win it, right, because
that's what it would have been. It's not like you
would have won the game and you lost because you
dropped it. The best case scenarios were tied with a
chance to win it, right, And Josh Allen still has
(26:49):
ninety seconds to get down the field. And I've seen
that movie many times, and you really thought the Ravens
defense is going to stop Josh Allen the last ninety seconds.
Potentially he could get that kick. Or let's just say
they miss it and you wind up overtime and then
it's anybody's game in overtime like it could have been.
That's the only thing I can say is that, Okay,
it wasn't one of those last second win or lose,
we move on and we didn't because of that. And
(27:11):
it's not like it was the AFC Championship game. It's
not like it was a super Bowl. That's the best
thing I can say is that we're still so many
more steps to winning that game and winning the championship.
But I get where it's at and and and if
you can think about that, that might help. But honestly,
I don't know how it doesn't consume anybody who is
a competitor that wants to win and loves games and
loves one wants to win because that's what they like
(27:33):
to do.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
I like to win.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I don't know how this isn't something that every day
I just have to find a way to find the
new normal, because now this is something that's going to
take up a large portion of my gray matter every
day for the rest of my life.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Yeah. No, I do like that you're trying to caveat
it out to make him feel better. To make Lamar
Jackson feel better. Look, his turnovers in the first half
don't go away magically because he had a great second half.
Talking about Lamar Jackson the peanut punch on Andrews and
not catching that two point conversion. Look, man, you can try.
(28:06):
We all make mistakes in our in our lives and
we try to rationalize it, excuse it whatever. While it
didn't lose you the game in that moment, Yeah, you
had a negligible chance of collecting an on side kick
and then you were gonna have to trust either Justin
Tucker or score a touchdown yourselves. Yeah, you lost the game. Like,
(28:29):
I hate to be that guy, but I gotta be
that guy. I can't silence that because you know what,
Mark Andrews is probably gonna think more like me rather
than being able to go, Oh, Josh Allen would have
scored on us anyway, Like.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
We've seen that so many like to get it that's
gonna happen, But I get it.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
I mean, they gave up twenty one points in the
first half, seven of those were because of the fumble
from Lamar Jackson short field, and then they gave up
six points in the second half, and I know, Bassett
hit the fifty one yarder and yeah, all things considered,
this is the guy that could win the MVP, and
he's done some miraculous things. But you gave yourself no
(29:08):
chance after dropping the ball, see what I did. I'm
not trying to kill Mark Andrew's here. It's unfortunate, all right,
because I wasn't mad he didn't talk. I guess in
the moment, it's like, wow, that's kind of odd that
you didn't. And then Monday that there wasn't enough from
the team, and you know, harbar whoever reaching out saying hey, Mark,
(29:28):
we need you to at least come and make a
statement just so we can move on and be done
with this. He's got one more year left on his deal.
I've seen everybody proposing all sorts of trades and whatever else.
The guy has, unfortunately had a difficult career in the playoffs.
Fumble what twenty nine catches in his eight games, which
(29:49):
is not a terrible average, but overall, you know, has
missed out on a couple of big moments when his
number has been called. But this one will live and yeah,
it consumes you. I mean, how many times hours after
the show I'm still pissed about. You know, some point
we didn't get It's like, oh, we gott have hammered
it better with this. This was in my notes, which
(30:11):
became chicken scratch and ineligible by the end of the night.
It's like, damn it. That would have really hammered it.
Or it was a good one liner that I wasn't
able to get off on you. So like all of
those things, you know, they stick with you whatever you
do for a living. But certainly athletes and coaches, Yeah,
you remember the losses more than the wins. That's the
(30:32):
age old adage, the way you could have maybe gotten
that one more victory, maybe extended your season. Because we're
also talking about adding extra money to everybody's coffers, right,
you know with the extra appearance, the extra game. Your owners,
if you're going to coast a home game, sure as
hell are kind of pissed because that's millions of dollars
they're not seeing off of that. So yeah, not to
(30:55):
mention all the fans and all of that stuff, Yeah,
I get that, I remember them too inside that locker room. Yeah,
that's tough to get past.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Exit out about a Fresco exit swollen dome the Jason
Smith's are with my car is just a bit of a
human moment when you think about.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Oh, you should talk, you should tell us why I drive?
Speaker 1 (31:11):
No, Yeah, the the the prison he is going to
have in his mind with this play in it is
going to be again, I don't know how you get
through it if you're an athlete. So many props to
be to athletes who have that kind of uh stick
touitiveness to be able to do that, because I really
I don't know how you do it.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Just real quick though, Jason. The last point, it's like,
if he did talk, what was he going to say?
I dropped the ball? I'm sorry, yeah, like there's really
nothing else then well.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
No, but then there's any questions.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Again, I asked this, and I don't want to say
the wrong thing again. He owes us nothing because what
he's got to deal with is way worse than that.
Way time, how to find out what's trending in the
wide world of sports from a woman who wants to
be on the wall at the Clipper game, that's right,
Monty Bolano swift, what's trending?
Speaker 4 (31:53):
That's right.
Speaker 7 (31:53):
I got to stretch though, and then when I go
to the wall.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
As we said, it's.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
A lot of work.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
Yeah, it'll work, and you got to you gotta give
it all.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
You gotta give it your all, you know, like if
you want me.
Speaker 7 (32:04):
Did you see when they played the Lakers and they
were holding Anthony like a big jumbohead of Anthony Davis
on a pair of razors and they were like shaving
his unibrow.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
That was so funny.
Speaker 7 (32:13):
That just was so funny and clever. That's what I
want to do. I want to shave Anthony Davis's unibrow.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
On the wall. That's what I want to do.
Speaker 7 (32:20):
Who doesn't want to do that?
Speaker 1 (32:22):
We're gonna save that drop for I want to shave
Anthony Davis's eyebrow on the wall.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
There we go, There we go.
Speaker 7 (32:27):
Please do Alex, don't Speaking of Anthony Davis. He's got
sixteen points and seven rebounds, and the Lakers are beating
the Celtics seventy four to sixty two. Lakers outscored them
in the first and second quarter. Right now, the Celtics
trying to make a little push in the third. Five
minutes to go in the third of that game, the
Warriors are back on top of the Bulls, This one's
(32:47):
also been back and forth, eighty one seventy six, four
minutes to go in the third quarter.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Of that one.
Speaker 7 (32:52):
At halftime, the Clippers are beating the Wizards sixty three
to forty one. James Harden seven points, six rebound, seven assists.
After a nice day yesterday, the Mavericks outscored the Thunder
one twenty.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
One to one fifteen.
Speaker 3 (33:05):
PJ.
Speaker 7 (33:05):
Washington had twenty two points and nineteen rebounds for Dallas.
But not all bad for Thunder, because for the Thunder,
because the fan hit the half court shot and got
twenty thousand dollars. So something happened in Okay see that
they could cheer about. The Bucks crushed they heat one
twenty five to ninety six. Damian Lillard just I have

Speaker 7 (33:51):

The Bucks that he has agreed to become the Jaguars
head coach.

So this is all circulating.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
He had a contract extension with the Bucks on his
desk and he didn't sign it.
