Speaker 1 (03:07):
Hey, look, fellas, we got a lot to talk about today, man,
so let's go ahead and jump right into it. Uh,
best time is any to talk about the NFL?

Speaker 5 (03:17):
Poom? Why don't you kick us off?

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Man with?

Speaker 1 (03:19):
You know, out of the first round playoff matchup games
with teams were you most impressed with?

Speaker 3 (03:26):
Uh? Most impressed with? I think Baltimore looked really good.
I think Buffalo looked good. That kid man Jaydon Dames, man,
he is. You know, it's not It's not even enough
they can be said about it. I've been watching football
for I mean since the early eighties, and I never

(03:47):
remember a rookie who we still haven't found a moment
that's too big for him, you know what I mean?
Like usually even rookies play well, but you're RG three
was the last really great rookie to play for the Redskins.
But when it got to the playoffs. It was like
that moment kind of got bigger, you know what I'm saying.

(04:07):
And it's just like this young he just stepping up
and knocking knocking it down, right, Man, they got they
got one for the next ten twelve years with him.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
But it's okay for you to say knocking shit damn
we uh. Our producer said, we okay to personal little bit.
It's okay for you to say that. We gotta be ourselves,
listeners and viewers. We gotta be ourselves. This is what
you sound up for. We gotta be ourselves. Go ahead.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
Yeah, so so Washington and as the Rams look really
good too, man, Like I think that this week of
games it's gonna be really tough. Like I think it's
gonna be really it's gonna be a great week man,
Like Saturday Sunday. You know, I told my son, Man,

(04:56):
I'm glad you game Friday because real Saturday afternoon, you know,
I think I might have to just live stream man
while I'm watching. Yeah, man, it's some good It's gonna
be some good, good football on Saturday and.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Sunday, man, no question, yeah, oh no, who you gonna
impressed with? First round of the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
Uh, the first round of the playoffs. I am impressed
with Washington. I think they went into Tampa and found
a way to win. As much as people are talking
about Jalen Hurts and you know, the passing game, the
fact that they did not have to pass the ball
and still can win, uh and run the ball. You know,

(05:42):
that's what playoffs is about. Minnesota, Man, they let me down.
I truly thought that they were going to you know,
for them to be playing for the first the number
one overall seed, and then you would think that that
would light a fire onder on the way Detroit you know,
got at him or whatever the case may be. So
I would have thought that they let me down a

(06:04):
little bit. So I was disappointed with Detroit. But no
knock on the LA and the Rams look look good
on the ball around. The only thing I got to
talk about with the Rams is what we were talking
about backstage, you know, prior to UH coming on live. Man,
that it's it's cold out there on the East Coast.
And I don't know what time the Rams and the

(06:25):
Eagles play, but regardless, it ain't gonna be playing in
LA in so far or playing out here in Arizona Glendale.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
It was you know, they playing inside. I think they
had the roof open and everything. So it was beautiful.
So I think that it's gonna play a major part.
But so those were the couple of teams that I
was impressed with. As far as the AFC, I would
never say I was impressed with Baltimore because of the
simple factor is I need to see what Lamar does.

(06:59):
Soun Lamar, the Lamar Jackson and Baltimore Ravens could have
won every game, but I need to see what they
are going to do in this divisional round and hopefully
what he does in the AFC Championship. So regardless of
what happens, I want to see Lamar Jackson play good football.

(07:20):
And if he does that, that's gonna put Baltimore in
a great situation and get them, you know, have them
prepared to win. But yeah, so that's everything that I
thought that I saw. Yeah, that was it.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
Yeah, Lamar. Ever, ever, no ship got out of the
division round.

Speaker 5 (07:39):
No, he was just in the n C Championship game
last year. No, he wasn't.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
To Kansas City in the NC Championship game. They be
in the divisional round.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
So who they playing in the wildcard? Last year?

Speaker 5 (07:58):
They had to buy.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
But they had the number one seed last year. I
thought that was two years ago.

Speaker 5 (08:03):
Last year they had the number one seed.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
Oh, I can't remember that. I gotta look that up.
So who Cincinnati played? Y'all? Sure you ain't play Cincinnati.

Speaker 5 (08:12):
Cincinnati was not represented. I don't believe in the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
Yes we did. Yes, we didn't go to the playoffs
last year. Yes we don't look at the playoffs last year.
Baltimore did not go to the ABC Championship game last year.

Speaker 5 (08:26):
Were we betting the singare in some Barbie?

Speaker 2 (08:30):
Nah? We betting that you that? Lamar don't No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no no no no. Oh.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Dog always tried to move the gold post everything. Man,
he always moved the gold post. We're not doing that.
And look here on the phone. Look look at date
on the phone, pressed with I agree with you. Washington
and James Daniels. I was most impressed with them.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
I was.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
I was impressed with the quarterback being a ricky and
looking like a vet and just you know, just just
just the team overall. It just looked like, you know,
they they deserve to be there and they and they
was there to win. They wasn't there just to represent
and be in the playoffs. They was there to win

(09:20):
that game. So I was definitely impressed with Dell. Uh
with Baltimore. It wasn't that I was impressed with him,
I was I was more pleased. I was pleased to
see the style of ball that they played, you know
what I mean. They they ran the ball. Henry ran
twenty six times. Lamar Jackson used his lags when there
was green field in front of him. What we been

(09:42):
asking them doing the playoff situation, stop worrying about the
outside noise and trying to prove to everybody that you
can just throw the ball every time and win ball games.
Do what you do is winning time. You you I
don't care if you throw the ball two times, you know,
as long as you win, win the game. And that
that's what I was pleased with that they finally, you know,

(10:02):
stuck with the formula and used their legs buffalo, you
know they I mean, they just they played as expected.
You know, we we knew that they was gonna put
a put a thumping on their opponent in the in
the first round. And I would say I was unimpressed
with the Chargers, you know, and that's that's a team

(10:24):
that especially when you're talking about Herbert, that's somebody that's
getting hyped, hyped up year after year after year. And
you never heard the same criticens of Herbert that you
hear for Lamar Jackson. You know what I'm saying, Like
Herbert lost that first first game and nobody said anything
about it. I was I was really unimpressed with them,

(10:48):
and I was impressed with the Rams. I'm not gonna
say I was unimpressed with Minnesota Vikings. We kind of
I don't know, everybody was talking about Sam Donald being
in the playoffs leading that team and you going against
you know, Matthew Stafford and the boys. You know, it
kind of went went the way a lot of people expected. So,

(11:10):
you know, but as far as being impressed, I definitely
Washington at the top of my list.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
That's what's up.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
One of the things is just to hit him what
you said about justin Herbert, I don't think he's gonna
get the He ain't gonna get the same criticism Lamar yet.
Because Lamar Pier, like when we talk about like he's
in that next tier of quarterbacks. You know what I'm saying,
Like he not expected to carry his team to a
super Bowl like Lamar. There's an expectation in Lamar Josh

(11:39):
Allen carry their team to a super Bowl. That expectation
ain't on Justin Herbert right now. You know what I'm saying.
Even though I think that even though he threw four picks,
I think two, maybe even three of them, you know
what I'm saying, his receivers kind of let him down
a little bit. You know what I'm saying. But I
thought that I thought the Jim hartball coach team would

(12:02):
be better prepared than they were for that game.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 5 (12:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
So I mean, now the first round is over. Now
we're in a divisional round. We know what the matchup
side Old Dog.

Speaker 6 (12:17):
Like anybody but Baltimore. I like anybody but Baltimore. Now,
how about that. I do not like Baltimore or anybody
that liked Baltimore.

Speaker 5 (12:28):
You're in the wrong side of history.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
That's okay, that's the first thing I'm going I'm gonna
write because y'all ain't won ship. So that's the I'm
on the right side of history. So I like Buffalo.

Speaker 5 (12:41):
Hold on ain't your bingals fan?

Speaker 2 (12:43):
I like Buffalo. You asked me who I like this weekend? Huh,
you asked me who I like this weekend?

Speaker 3 (12:48):
Correct?

Speaker 5 (12:48):
But but you but but you said we didn't win.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
We went to the super Bowl a couple of years ago.
But did you win?

Speaker 5 (12:53):
Ship?

Speaker 2 (12:54):
We want to super Bowl a couple of years and
we want an ABC championship. I'm going to get to
the site Bluffalo. I like Philly, I like Kansas City,
and I like Detroit. Sorry, Washington, all my fellow fans, y'all, y'all,
but y'all did Jordan right?

Speaker 5 (13:15):
Group?

Speaker 2 (13:16):
If they got somebody, because because Detroit, they probably gonna
be like, oh man, Washington, and what Detroit gonna do?
You mark my word? They're gonna play a lot. Well
we all know they play a lot of man and man.
So I like if the young boy number two, I
forgot his name, young and out of North Carolina, that
had a good game last against Tampa. They been waiting

(13:39):
for him. I forgot his name. He got drafted three
years ago, second round pick. I forgot his name. Frey
don't know he know his name. If that young man
can contribute and help out, you know, what I mean,
what the boy Josh Dotson was supposed to do. Who
Washington missed on that one? And I said that way

(13:59):
back two years ago on this show. They missed on
that one. If he can help out and give Scary
Terry some help you, it's gonna be I think Washington
they got a good chance. But Man Detroit is a
machine man with Gibbs and you know, saying Aki Wack
or whatever his name is, you know what I'm saying,

(14:20):
and they just they just uh the way what you
call him is playing right now their quarterback, you know.
And that coach, you know that the head coach man
he ain't He probably had them boys in full pass
at least three the whole offer they had. And look
and when you win it, you ain't tripping on being

(14:41):
on full pass because you might be on full pass,
but they know how to practice, right. So yeah, you
when you got a coach like that, you ain't tripping
you like man coach he said, well, I'm gonna put
you in full past three four days, but we're gonna
take off these next two days, you know, but we
gotta get after it a little bit. And when you
got a coach like that, how that's why those boys
play so hard to Detroit. You got a coach like that,

(15:03):
players coach, your players gonna go do whatever they can
to try not to try not to let you down.
So those are my teams. Detroit, what Eagles in the
NFC Championship, and then it's gonna be Buffalo in Kansas City.
Baltimore will be right where the Cincinnati Bengals is in
Cabo watching the championship on the beach. That's where they're

(15:26):
gonna be.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Wh's's what's your thoughts on the second round and what
game are you most excited to see this weekend?

Speaker 3 (15:35):
I mean, you obviously know them. I'm most excited to see,
you know, Lamar come up, Come up to Buffalo, man
and see what do you what it's like when he
getting that real cold weather. You know when we got
down here, really ain't ship compared to what Buffalo about
to give him.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
Oh yeah, they got that, They got that. They expected
snow too, Yeah, snow. Lamar Jack's gonna hit four for
He's gonna hit two cheerleaders in the face in a
general in an assistant general manager.

Speaker 3 (16:12):
My my only I I think that uh he soon
got a chance to beat Kansas City. Like Kansas City
offense has been so pedestrian this year that I think
it it opens the door. I think if Houston can
come out with that same kind of energy, if they

(16:33):
came out with you can't count on Pat Mahons throwing
the ball away like Justin Herbert did, but just that
energy that the entire team played with. I think if
they bring that, you know, and and they can find
a way to protect and keep them for knuckle Dragons
and Kansas City got off of off the c J shroud,
I think they gotta they got a chance. I think

(16:56):
Philly is gonna deal with l A and that Detroit
Washington game. You know, I've been saying that my only
problem I have with Detroit and I like Dan Campbell,
but man, he just does some bomb them headed.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
You know.

Speaker 3 (17:13):
He gets a little bit into the analytics sometimes with me,
and I think he just hates to kick. He don't
like the punk. He don't like to but that's what
I'm saying. But now he done got the one other
coach who does the same type of dumbs like Dan
Quinn made that game closer than what it should have

(17:33):
been by not kicking field goals, you know what I'm saying.
But then again, you know, he got to listen. He's
working on the starfield goal kissing the year. He might
not trust him, you know, that might have been a
trust issue with with with Quick. But I think Detroit
gonna pull it off. But I would not be surprised
if Dan Campbell does goes forward on forth and something

(17:54):
or kicks it on side kick and does something dumb
when he doesn't need to do it just because that's
his mo. So yeah, Buffalo over Baltimore, no question. Yeah,
I'm still waiting to see Lamar like she played went

(18:15):
up in this game right here, and that was the
first round. But nobody thought that. Nobody thought that that
team had a chance. You know what I'm saying against Baltimore,
I wanted it. Huh you got you thought Pittsburgh had
a chance.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
Yeah, I mean, if you were a Baltimore fan, you
was nervous about that game. You're talking about a division
rivalry that has had your number for the last.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
Let me let me ask you this. They had a
chance because it was a division ribery. But I watched
that game and and I rewatched it, right, I watched
that game twice m HM as great as player as
t J. White is. I have not seen anybody players
under a player from at a at a defensive end,

(19:02):
outside linebacker, and it it just doesn't get talked about.
I just I can't. I can't figure if that was
Michael Parsons, they'd be killing him all week, like if
that was I just can't help with him.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
You don't know, poom, you don't know what. You don't
know what the defensive scheme is. You don't know telling
him poom, you.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
Don't know, oh, oh what we do? Oh you know
this much about football that if you have a defensive
end and you were instructing him to go down.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
But listen to what you just said. Are you if
you are instructing him?

Speaker 5 (19:39):
You don't know.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
Sometimes defensive coordinators do wild ship and say your job
is not to mess around and and and keep the edge,
go to the ball, find the ball, need to do
Sometimes I.

Speaker 3 (19:53):
Would I would agree with that. I would agree with that,
But nobody saying go get the ball and we're not
gonna have anybody take outside contain.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
How do you know that somebody outside the outside can
team might have been someone else?

Speaker 3 (20:04):
You don't know what I'm saying it was nobody there.
Every time he went down. It was nobody there, so
for it to be a throw coverage or or or
a blown assignment worse twice, but every time he would
do it. To me watching it, it looked more like
a selfish player than a bad call, you know what

(20:26):
I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (20:27):
I will say this doing the commentary of the game,
they did say that he was assigned to attack Henry
no matter what it was, somebody else responsibility.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
I'm not listening. Listen, we ain't about to talk to
no Poomy about no motherfucking defense the sight listeners and viewers.
We ain't doing that. That's twenty twenty five. Listen. They
certain players, they say everything's out the window. That's the
same way Paula Malu in the God Rest in Peace,

(21:00):
s Dot. You used to be supposed to be in
the post, but he down by the line of scrimmage.
Sometimes you tell your players, hey, go to the ball
somebody else. Is that supposed to be somebody else's job.
We don't know, That's all I'm saying, poom We don't know.
You're right, it might have been sometimes where he was
being selfish. One hundred. But my point of saying that

(21:23):
is don't sit up there and say every time because
we don't know, we don't know. Bottom line is they
ain't getting collectively. As a defense, they.

Speaker 3 (21:32):
Did not get it collectively. But if that's the case,
then that defensive coordinator need to be fired because you
put them in the shitty position because every time he
went down on that read option, they just pulled it
and ran outside. Every single time they just ran them.
All right, you coming down, We'll just take this bad football.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Hey poom. I'm agreeing with you on that part. I'm
agreeing with you on that part. But what I'm also
saying is sometimes decoordinator got to say, you know what, TJ. Watt,
that plan ain't working. So instead of you just going
to the ball, how about you just do this. Your
job is gonna be no matter what you do. You
got outside contained force everything back inside. But that ain't

(22:17):
what made the That ain't what made the Steelers lose.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
No, I'm not saying that what made them lose, but
they were. There were multiple instances. If you go back
and watch a game where it was they had one
well second and nineteen and it was nowhere for Lamar
to throw the ball. But because t J. Watt didn't
didn't have any type of lane discipline, Lamar was able

(22:42):
to just step around.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
And just a.

Speaker 5 (22:47):
Poom.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
Even if he did have discipline, he ain't stopping Lamar.
I mean, let's let's keep it a buck. I know
it would have made it harder whatever you write. Paul's
but but but like bro, come on, man, Lamar, Lamar
running past dvs and he is.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
But there I'm saying, Oh, you played football. I played,
and we play with players who are great players, right,
but sometimes they get caught up in I gotta make
this play, you know what I'm saying. And they're gonna
try to lean on and sometimes great players do it.
But sometimes when you're trying to do that and you're

(23:24):
getting burned, and.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
You let me ask you this boom, and let me
ask you this coach as great as coach as Thomason
is right, hold on, I want you all to see
my face. Hold on, as great as coaches as Mike
thoms whatever his name is, coach for the Pittsburgh stillis.
Do you think if he if he was, if TJ
was kept going inside and going crashing, crash and crashing.

(23:46):
Do you think because I've seen Mike check Pountcy, uh,
Ryan Clark, Polo, Marlou Lamar Woodley, James Harrison, do you
think he wouldn't check t J. Watt and say, hey,
he said, oh, your job responsibility is to be outside.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
I'm not saying didn't.

Speaker 2 (24:07):
Sobody, but you kept saying, you're saying you just said
he was doing it all game. So my point is
if he was doing it all game and hurting the
defense as closely as Mike Tomlin works with the defense,
because if you watch Hard Knocks, you see every Tuesday
he and there with Fitzpatrick in them, and they watching
the film and they watch them take HBO Fitzpatrick. So

(24:31):
my point is, do you really think if TJ, if
they didn't tell him, hey, go to the ball. I
don't care about you getting a cold and no outside
con team. Man, your job is one thing. Only find
the ball, go to the ball, or whatever the case
may be. Do you really think he would have said hey,
Do you really think he would have been like hey, no, no, no, no, no,
hold up you you you you're doing a little bit

(24:51):
too much. I need you to keep outside. Cotwn same
way he got on Mike Pounce. If you watch win
possecation side, he said, hey, hm, this ain't Hey, it's
a team game. It's not personal. You should have been
getting personal fouls in such and such and such or whatever. Hey,
it's the team. So do you think Mike Thompson, knowing

(25:13):
him as far as the character that this man is
and what we've known about him, do you think he
wouldn't have told TJ, Hey, your job responsibility is to
take it outside.

Speaker 3 (25:24):
Absolutely think you wouldn't say it.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (25:28):
I also think that he's not gonna replace him.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
Yeah, but you you think, but.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
He continue to do the same thing by Mike Tomlin
to do something else obviously now was the game plan.
If he continued the entire game to do that same thing,
that's what they wanted him to do.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
Certain players, you say, go to the ball. You don't
know about that because you ain't play no defense that
little that that defense you playing in the DC I
double A when you beat me for that m v
P of the d m V that was just home
cooking right there, because you was a d c uh.
That's a.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
Type of domination. But anyway, go ahead, Coch.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:18):
So so yeah, my my picks for for the second round.
Of course, I'm gonna go with Kansas City. You can't
go against him until uh, you know, somebody dethrowns them.
I like uh, I like Philadelphia over the rounds.

Speaker 5 (26:35):
I think.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
The Rams can't do anything to slow down sa Kuon Barkley.
I saw that first game and say, Kuon Barkley went wow.
I don't think there's nothing they can do about it
from from the backfield or him catching balls on screen
passes or or whatever the case may be. Detroit Washington
game going with Detroit, Detroit been dominated all year. That's

(26:58):
a team that from the very beginning, I think all
of us start that, hey, we we like them to
go to the super Bowl because they look that.

Speaker 5 (27:06):
Good and the.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
Championship at least to the NFC Championship. And and I
don't and I don't see them losing to to Washington.
And I think that they they may have something cooking
for for Jaydon Daniels, you know, being a rookie and everything.
I think they may find a way to kind of
rattle him, even though he's been a cool customer so far.
And then and then of course that that's the biggest

(27:30):
game of the weekend Buffalo Baltimore. Of course, y'all know
I'm Baltimore, so so I'm going with uh. So, I'm
definitely going with Baltimore. Everybody is kind of tagging this
game to be like the game of the Year. It's
just supposed to be an epic game. You got two
at the top contender MVP candidates, two great teams, you

(27:51):
and Buffalo, and the Cold probably gonna be some snow,
so it should be an epic game. But what I
think is, uh, Baltimore is built for this game. That's
why they got Derrick Henry, you know what I mean,
That's why they got that workhorse. And we all know
that Buffalo does have a problem with stopping to run,
so I think that that will be our advantage. And

(28:12):
I don't you this could be my bias, but I
don't even think the game is gonna be as close
as we all think. Yeah, that is your bias, Yeah,
I mean that that's me.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
So, I mean, you're a Baltimore Ravens fan, so you
do no, just not.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Even just as a fan. It's just me my observation.
So we'll we'll talk about the next next Wednesday and
see and see what's what. But right now this is
just what what what I think? And you know, while
we're on the subject, at the NFL were talking about
Mike Tomlin and the and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Do you
think it's time for Mike Tomlin to walk away from
the Steelers? Should they mutually part ways or should just

(28:52):
say no?

Speaker 2 (28:54):
Even though sometimes the change could be good. You know,
Tony Dunky went from Tampa to Indianapolis and want to
shoot a boat. Yeah, sometimes the change could be good.

Speaker 5 (29:03):
So you know, yeah, yeah, it is what it is.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
But you know sometimes, but I just think Pittsburgh is
uh at a point where they need to get a
big time wide receiver. They've always had a great wide
receiver in there. I like Pickings, but you know, pickings
as far as maturity and it's the overall little things
like you know what I mean, they need to get

(29:28):
a bona fide number one in their appro.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
So to me, this old dog, dude, do you think,
because you know, you always hear that they called the
wide receivers divers and all that stuff, do do you
think that Pickings the way he.

Speaker 2 (29:42):
Ain't done it, He's not How can you be a
DV he ain't done enough. Listen, I I've listeners and viewers. No,
I judge wide receivers on whether or not I'm hanging
out party the night before I got to check or
why if I got to check Pickings. Man, I'm in Pittsburgh, Man,
I'm in the set. Oh yeah, yeah, I'm not worried
about him. I'm not worried about him. One. He gonna

(30:05):
be upset at the ball and not coming to him early,
he gonna be pouting whatever. Yeah, I'm not worried about him.
But my thing is, besides Pickings, I think they had
Dante Jackson on the team. But besides Pickings, I can't
name or another wide receiver. I do like the tight
end number eighty, but just to make it. But yeah,

(30:28):
I ain't gonna talk about that roster. The bottom line is,
I don't think Mike Tomlin needs to go anywhere. I
just think they need some players because you blew it
when you took the boy Pickings, because y'all was trying
to keep it hometown and they took the boy Pickings
out of Pittsburgh or whatever his name was, the quarterback,
and y'all should have win.

Speaker 5 (30:46):
Got another play makeup oh yeah, Picket, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
Yeah, Picket. Whatever. They took Picket just two years ago
and y'all already got rid of So that's what they blew.
And they took him in the top twenty pick or
top twenty five for sure.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Do you think do you think the issues that quarterbacks
started with them keeping Ben Roethlisberger around too long?

Speaker 5 (31:08):
Because they kind of kept him around past this way
past this prime.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
When you're a franchise quarterback and you won two Super Bowls,
you can do You showed that, you show your franchise,
you show your quarterback that type of respect. So no,
that's not just because you keep them around. That don't
mean you draft what you mean Brett fall Aaron Rodgers?
What you mean? What we talking about? Brett Faar? Aaron Rodgers?
Do I gotta go to Kansas City? Who's Kansas City quarterback?

(31:34):
Alex Smith?

Speaker 5 (31:35):
Yeah, Pittsburgh. They never had nobody in the dugout.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
But that's what But that's what I'm saying. They didn't
do it. But that's not but but that's not Rosseisberger
fall right, Yeah, you should have got somebody that that. Okay,
we're gonna keep him, just like with Green Bay did
with the boy love right, and and that's what you know,
So that's why I love. He didn't play as well
as he should have. You know, often feeld on field

(32:01):
injuries or whatever. But he's a solid quarterback for the
Green Bay package for the next moving forward. They have
their quarterback for the future and Pittsburgh doesn't have that.
So that's the reason why I think they they had
the problems that they had this year. You know, they
need to decide are you gonna go with Justin Fields
or you're gonna you know, they trying, they trying to

(32:22):
do some band aid work. Nah, Now, Thomas Tomlin good,
I wouldn't leave Pittsburgh. I'll stay right there.

Speaker 3 (32:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (32:31):
Do you think then the road for Tomlin and Stillers?

Speaker 3 (32:35):
Listen, I think that Tomland Mike Thomlin is one of
the greatest coaches in NFL history. I think that. I
think the Pittsburgh Stillers franchise has been spoiled by you know,
a lot of success over the last twenty years and
a success from the seventies. But yeah, realized, man, during

(32:55):
the age of the nineties, fifth Very Hills wasn't no
hell raisers. So for y'all to act like every year, Yah,
y'all should be in Super Bowl contention. You know what
I'm saying. It's crazy, Like I think that if Mike
Thomas step away with that roster they got, they're gonna
see a whole bunch of four thirteen seasons.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
Oh yeah, facts, facts, And I don't think it's more
so them them the super Bowl contentionent thing. It's the
fact that they haven't won a playoff game, and like
the last what seven eight tries?

Speaker 3 (33:29):
Soft so to that should they have won a playoff
game this year? Did they have the talent to beat
the person that they was in the playoffs against?

Speaker 1 (33:38):
Well, well, some would probably say yes, because you gotta
remember Pittsburgh was leading that division for thirteen weeks of
the season, and they was playing for a first seed
in the NFC for a second there, and then they
had a little land slide, you know, a depth in
the past.

Speaker 5 (33:54):
What the last four or five weeks?

Speaker 3 (33:57):
You're not answer my question. It's burg are the talented?
Did they have the best football team?

Speaker 2 (34:04):
No?

Speaker 3 (34:04):
No, no, no, Pittsburgh was coached really well this year.
They played above their heads, they overachieved. They were not
supposed to win a playoff game. Sometimes you took the playoffs,
you're just playing the good teams now, ain't the more
you know what I'm saying, them are bad teams. So
Pittsburgh got there right and they were the worst of

(34:26):
the good teams. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. So, well,
he doesn't win the playoff game? What games has he lost?
These sixth that he's lost? Which ones did he lose?
And he was supposed to win? Which one did he lose?
But he was not at the talent deficit, you know
what I'm saying. So if you look at it through
that layers, it's like, all right, well you're getting us there.

(34:50):
You know what I'm saying. He's getting to the point
where at least we got a shot. Now the fact
that we you know, overachievement is we overachievement. But they
Pittsburgh ain't got no Helifi. Like I say, they got
one receiver, you know what I'm saying, they got a
tight end quarterback. That quarterback situation has been laughable the

(35:11):
last seven years, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, so
what what what is the expectation for Pittsburgh? Like, what's
your really expectation? I mean, not harsh is a good back,
but they ain't got no hell of five running game
like Pittsburgh is like they're they're good, They're like a sixth.
You know what I'm saying. Everywhere it's just like a

(35:33):
like it. It's like a good looking girl, you see,
but you ain't gonna remember her, you know what I'm saying,
Like you remember that nine, that ten, but six like see,
I can't ugly but you know, and that's Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh
they just all right. You know what I'm saying, It
ain't gonna be somebody.

Speaker 5 (35:50):
Yeah, But I think the key word you said is overachieved.

Speaker 1 (35:54):
That I think that's what Mike Tomlan has been able
to do with the Pittsburgh still is for a long
time now, is overachieved make them look better than what
they really are.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
You know.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
It's seasons where they probably should only won two three games,
but they finished a little bit over five hundred, or
maybe they finished five hundred. I mean, for him to
never have a losing season since he's been coaching that team,
it's just you gotta tip your hat to that. But
I do think two things could be true. I do
think that you know, maybe you know that their time

(36:27):
is done in Pittsburgh, you know, with Tomlin and the
Stillers organizations. Sometimes you just get to a point where, look, man,
look I can't do nothing for you no more. And
then and then the team like we need something, We
need somebody fresh in here, you know, a fresh energy.
And I'm thinking I'm kind of comparing it to like,

(36:47):
uh Andy Reid. Andy Reid has always been the top
two three coach in the league. He took the Eagles
to the Super Bowls multiple times and won NFC Championship
multiple times. And it just got to the point where
him and that franchise just reached the point where they
just couldn't go no further. And now you see that

(37:07):
when he went to somewhere else, got a fresh new start.

Speaker 3 (37:11):
Right you know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (37:12):
He super Bowl champion of.

Speaker 2 (37:15):
Cod And I didn't mean to interrupt, but let me
just say this stuff. When he did fall on his sword,
he fell on the sword with who Mike Vick was
his quarterback?

Speaker 5 (37:24):
Yeah, right then, you know you see what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
What I'm saying is let Mike tom have another run
at it, but give him a court, give him a quarter,
I think one, and put me just talk talked about it,
and him being the officer line can tell you a
lot more about it than me. The young and from
the running back that came I forgot. I think he
came out of Alabama, the running back out of Alabama.
He's okay, but yeah he's not what he's not what

(37:51):
they thought he was gonna be. I think we can
all say that, yeah when he started, but that, but
he's not with it. The defense. The defense is still
playing well. I think they need a couple pieces in
the secondary. I think they need a bona fide corner.
I like Jackson Sudden, you know, he's all nickel guy whatever.

(38:13):
I think they need to, you know, and I and
I do like a porter he you know, he's coming
around whatever. But I think they need one more. And
nowadays you need three of them, right, you need three
corners nickel and two two outsides or whatever. But I
just think the the main focal point, they don't have
any Playmatris on it. Who do they have that you're

(38:36):
worried about? That's what I'm saying. Like, if I'm in Pittsburgh,
I'm calling the city. I'm out, not just the night.
It don't even have to be a west coast east
coast trip. I'm talking about. If I'm in Philly, I'm
telling my friends, come up, man, we out. I'm playing.
We may we out man about what you're talking about?

(38:58):
Man we out, Man we out. He ain't worry man,
what pickings. I promise you if you said, oh, Mark,
anybody any one thousand dollars right here? If you can
name their number two receivers, do y'all know him?

Speaker 5 (39:14):
I can't name it.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
Poom. I don't even know the tight Ends name. And
I like his game. He's I know he wears number eighty,
but I can't even. Besides now, I do know the
young and that had a nice catch when he told tapped.
I think he number eleven or something. But I don't
know their names. That's why I'm trying to tell you.
Nobody's afraid. So so it's tough for hers to get

(39:39):
some good yards and run the ball and do well.
When you can just pack the box and then we
can go man to man and be like, man, we
holler at y'all worried about no, ain't nobody worried about no? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (39:50):
He make Now if Calvin Austen there you go.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
You know what I'm saying, had a great had a
great toe tap, loved it. He did his think that
that catch he had. I think it was Christmas or whatever.
It was a couple of weeks ago. Love that catch,
but I don't. But that's what I'm saying. We shouldn't
have to look up back in the Pittsburgh is known
the Plexico Burg. San Antonio, I said, san Antonio, Tonio home,

(40:15):
Come on, man, Antonio Brown, Come on, man, what you're
talking about? Man? They always had receivers, man, Yeah, lord,
what are we talking about? You ain't see thig Penn Man.
We were talking about. Man, they always had a receiver,
a bone of five number one that you gotta see me, man.

Speaker 1 (40:37):
Yeah, I think I think they thought Pickings was a
bona five number one. And they brought in what's his name,
Mike Williams. I think they thought he was gonna be
better than what he what he is.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
But you also got remember they got Mike Williams off
of he coming off Major Nie Heir true, right, So yeah,
he thought he could help, but yeah, he messed around.
Don't do good in Pittsburgh. But but you know he did, okay,
but you but he's not what you know he ain't
that person that franchised you know who, you know you
building off of. He a complimentary piece, right, Pittsburgh has

(41:10):
always had a wide receiver in a running back. Man,
nobody's worried about Harris Man. Nobody's worried about pick Man. No,
I'm out all man. Listen, man, and don't let us
not be in the playoffs. Don't let us be a
team that's not in the playoffs and we're playing against Pittsburgh.

(41:33):
Man talking about the bus league. What time, Man, I
see y'all at the stated, not coming back to the
whole team. I'm going from wherever I was at the
night before, I meet y'all at the stadium getting drunk.
I'm not worried about no pickings.

Speaker 5 (41:52):
Yeah, so so Owen Pooh.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
Let's just say, for conversation, Tom and Dulee, what's the
best land is five for him?

Speaker 5 (42:00):
In your opinion?

Speaker 2 (42:01):
Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh. I don't think he should leave Pittsburgh. Ain't
nowhere where where, ain't nowhere else to go? Who you
gonna bring into Pittsburgh?

Speaker 5 (42:12):
Yeah, I mean, I think Tim would be a good
coach for Dallas.

Speaker 2 (42:18):
You must be playing around.

Speaker 5 (42:20):
Next topic, Man, so you got you got a receiver,
you got a quarterback.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
Oh, you can't say that he's gonna be a good
coach for Dallas. Yeah, he probably be a good coach
for Dallas if he didn't have to deal with Jerry Jones.

Speaker 3 (42:35):
Yeah, the biggest induce for anybody being a good coach
in Dallas.

Speaker 2 (42:43):
Mike Thomas from the set, Mike Thomas from the seven five.
So let's let's next topic.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
Yeah, so it's not this was actually this was actually
a same segue into the next topic because what we've
been hearing all week is that the Dallas Cowboys is
interested in bringing Deon Sanders in there as their head coach.

Speaker 5 (43:04):
Dude, do you think that's a good move? Do you
think would trade up for Sho done?

Speaker 2 (43:09):
Well? Like I said, I said, and if you could,
if you trade Da Prescott, you get a lot of
pieces and you probably get a lot of draft picks.
But like I said, I thought he was going to
the uh what I said the Raiders?

Speaker 5 (43:22):
Raiders?

Speaker 2 (43:22):
Yeah, Raiders. But yeah, I think that if anybody that
can deal with him, because Deon' is a type of
person and like Jerry and who you talking to? Better relaxed,
But I just think when you got those two big egos,
I don't think it'll work. That's just my pig go ahead.

Speaker 3 (43:41):
I don't think it'll work. I don't think anything like
I think Jerry Jones. Jerry Jones is going from uh,
ego centric narcissist to an old man now and he
ain't willing to listen to anybody, you know what I'm saying,
because he's so old, he's so set in his ways.
You know, I don't. I don't. I don't think there's

(44:03):
anybody that can coach the Cowboys with this iteration of
jaded Jones, you know what I'm saying. So I don't.
I think. I think, I honestly think that Dion will
be probably be a better pro coach than college coach
because it's just about being a CEO, you know what

(44:25):
I'm saying, And if he gets the right people around him,
I think that uh he can be a great CEO
m H. Wherever he is.

Speaker 1 (44:35):
Yeah, yeah, I get I think Dallas Issues is the owner.
Once he once he removed himself to get out the way,
which he probably would never do. I think that's when
you see him start taking a turn for the best.
But keeping on the subject with Dion Sanders. You know,
he did make the comment that you know, he would
go and coach an NFL team if he could coach

(44:58):
his son should do or he sons to do it,
and uh and it shot in Shiloh.

Speaker 5 (45:07):
Do you think that's that out did for me? Personally?

Speaker 1 (45:10):
I think Dean should stay in college because I think
I love the effect that he have on those young men.
You know, he teach him how to be young men.
He teach him how to be successful in the field
and off the field. You know, I think you have
conversations with his players that your average coach just don't
have because he doesn't seen at all. He done been
there and done that. And I think his biggest impact

(45:30):
would be in the college game. But I want to
know what you guys think, boy Paul, because mine's is
very simple.

Speaker 3 (45:40):
I think he's just stay in college as well. But
I also think that the head coach know when the
covers bed before everybody else, you know what I'm saying,
And it's, Uh, it's real hard to replace a once
in a generation kind of guy, you know what I mean,

(46:00):
and when and a really good quarterback, you know, I mean,
it's it's a little easier now with the transfer portal.
But I think when you see all that stuff, and
that's why I wouldn't be surprised if he left, if
he didn't, if he didn't see what he has and
thinks that he can continue to win, Like I don't think.

(46:20):
I think Bill a young man is a byproduct. But
I think Deon cares more about winning, you know what
I'm saying, And that's understandable. Like and I think if
he looks around and he says, man, I can't win
nine or ten games with these guys, then I think
he may uh be willing to listen to going to

(46:43):
the pros. But I don't know. I don't I think
he'll know the cover's bed before everybody else.

Speaker 1 (46:53):
Yeah, but they did get the number one quarterback in
the country that could sign with them, right, They.

Speaker 2 (46:59):
Got number one quarterback in the country going to Michigan.
They got the they got the they got the other younger.
He top five, He a top five guy, number one
quarterback when to Michigan. Got ten MILLI oh, okay, ten million, Okay.
He was supposed to be going to he was already
he was.

Speaker 3 (47:15):
Where was it?

Speaker 2 (47:16):
He flipped? He went. He was supposed to go to LSU,
go to l s U and then Michigan. The girl uh,
a booster from Michigan said, talked to her her boyfriend
at the time. Her boyfriend's a billionaire, and she said

(47:36):
what she wanted was the quarterback, you know, the number
one quarterback, and that's what he said, Well, what's it
gonna take. And they wound up giving him ten million
dollars and that's why he flipped from l s U
to Michigan. Hm hmm, yeah, so very simple for me.
Dion Sanders is the most marketing genius there is. He's

(47:58):
been doing it his whole life life and he's doing
it for his sons. Uh. Shad Door is good, but
he's not better than cam Ward. I don't personally feel
like he's better than cam Ward. But it's cool that
they all together. They work with the same quarterback coach. Uh,
he's like that or whatever the case may be. Dion
Sanderson shador when he came out of school to offer,

(48:19):
when he was committed, he was committed to go to
Florida Atlantic, Uh, Alabama's and Michigan's and these Ohio State
none of these schools, No, he was going, he went
to he was going to Florida Atlantic before Deon Sanders
got the job at Jackson State or whatever. So to me,
it seems like this is something that he has been
working on. I feel like he should stay in UH

(48:43):
in UH college because when you're dealing with grown men,
it's a little different, and some of the stuff that
he does and allows his sons to do, I don't
think that'll be cool as far as professional you know,
things of that name. So that's just simple, like we
talked about prior to if we're all supposed to be

(49:05):
scheduled there and we're supposed to be there for five
am workout, unless it's an illness or something wrong with
the family member, then everybody should be there. Your son
shouldn't be walking the runway in Europe at a fashion
show for whatever. I don't think cool, just like I
didn't think it was cool Aaron Rodgers wasn't there for

(49:26):
mandatory camp because he wanted to go, you know, do
whatever it is.

Speaker 5 (49:31):
Yeah, yeah, good point.

Speaker 2 (49:35):
I just think I just think those type of things
will be tough. So I think he should stay in
college personally. But you know, if anybody can get it
done with the Cowboys. I think it would be him,
but I think it might be cool three or four games,
but once they start losing, I think, you know, I
think the ship will hit the fan.

Speaker 5 (49:53):
So yeah, yeah, And at the end of the day,
I would like to see his sons, especially the door
play without that. Dad.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
We just let let them, let yeah, let them out
the nest. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (50:09):
The other son didn't. He was at South Carolina and
you know, he was doing this thing at first, and
they put him in past coverage and it didn't work
out well for him. So that's his thing. He's a
he can come downhill, he's gonna try to hit you,
blow you up, but you know he uh pass coverage,
he's you know, he's a walking uh ESPN commercial. That's

(50:32):
what they used to call me. W D forty. They
used to say I was weak pauls Week deep, but uh,
everybody everybody knew that. What it was that I do.
I don't matter if you deep, fast, slow, whatever. I
turned the four two into four to three because I
study everything about you.

Speaker 3 (50:50):
So yeah, I think that the shallows of two hundred
pounds downhill line backer like, yeah, he was.

Speaker 2 (51:00):
If he was a play closer to the box. If
he would just be like a fly, let him play
like the wheel or the sam and one of those
defenses that or has that rover like that extra safety.
Oh oh, he's gonna he's gonna he's gonna have. He's
gonna have fifteen typs a game. But putting him out
there in pat in the NFL, or they they man

(51:21):
offensive coordinators drawing up plays.

Speaker 5 (51:22):
In the you know me of like, you know, he
mimm me of a poor man version.

Speaker 1 (51:29):
But you remember that safety they had in Dallas used
to be a hard hitter, but he could not cover
the saving his life.

Speaker 5 (51:36):
Roy Williams, Roy Williams, that's the what you mimd me
of a poor man's Roy Williams.

Speaker 2 (51:42):
Yeah, superport because Roy Williams was two hundred and twenty
five pounds running fourth. Yeah, if Roy Williams was a monster.
So no, no, he don't even know.

Speaker 5 (51:56):
I'm just saying in terms of big hitter but can't
coming that's yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:01):
Yeah, yeah, yeah for sure, for sure. Yeah, yeah he is,
uh you know, but hey, I wish him, like we
say we wish all the kids that's coming out for
the draft and stuff like that. Nothing but the best
shout out a g. Kenny Gallop. I know he watched
and I talked to him today. He's down. Yeah, he's
down in Atlanta. Uh, doing his thing, training and things

(52:23):
like that. Getting ready is in Atlanta, Atlanta, I think
it's Atlanta. He's doing his thing, getting ready for the
Uh they're going to the Black College Combine first. Uh,
you know, getting ready for the pro day. So shout
out to all the guys and wish him nothing but
the best. But yeah, when you got somebody like Deon

(52:44):
Sanders fighting for you, I suspect shallow to go no
later than second or third round. So yeah, yeah, because
he's gonna go, He's gonna go wherever his brother.

Speaker 5 (52:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (52:58):
Absolutely, Switching up speeds a little bit. We got college
football this weekend, Fellers Championship Game. Got Notre Dame in
Ohio State.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
I want to know the Ohio State Dame. Anybody but
the Dame. Okay, shout out to Jordan Clark. I want
Jordan to do well. I hope you have a couple
of past breakups and do a thing. You know what
I'm saying. But uh, yeah, other than that, the Ohio
State Mama, T Uncle, Uncle Jem, the mob, I wish

(53:30):
I was in the basement. But yeah, shout out to
the Ohio State University.

Speaker 5 (53:37):
You got Ohio State, pumy.

Speaker 3 (53:41):
Anybody but know the Dame anybody, But yeah, yo, I
know the game so much. I hate know the Dame
so much. They got me rooted against the black coach
and everybody that knows me. Though, Man, I'm I'm a
I'm a I'm like Wendew Evans. You know what I'm saying. Yeah,

(54:06):
I'm like, I'm black, y'all, and I'm black, y'all, like
I'm always you know what I'm saying. Everybody black.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
Was a wild dude.

Speaker 5 (54:24):
But look, so look, obviously I know you who you
predicted to win the game, But what do you think
the keys to victory.

Speaker 2 (54:34):
Is for Notre Dame to do what they do best,
slow the game down and to get number four the
ball and get him. You can't wait till the second
half like you did against who You'll play Penn State, right,
Penn State?

Speaker 5 (54:47):
Yeah, yeah, you get a ball of love and we got.

Speaker 2 (54:50):
To give the ball to number four. And I was
talking to a couple of people. They was like, with
O mart the wide receiver, with such and such. Obviously
the quarterback shouldn't have been the m v P, the
MVP of that game. Who got that offense?

Speaker 5 (55:03):
Going love?

Speaker 2 (55:05):
When you said the wide receiver, my boy, Baker Mayfield.
You know that we had these conversations with He was like,
what a received I say, yeah, the receiver had a
great catch and and and yeah he did this, he
made a move. Awesome, he ambitious with off the line.
He killed the corner. The catch and the move. That
was one thing. But if people can see what he
did to that young man in front of him on

(55:27):
the line of scrimmage, Oh, that's the one. But coming
out in the second half, those three big runs and
for him to be accounted for sometimes even if I'm
not even if even if he doesn't Love don't get
the ball, he gotta be accounted for. And we got

(55:50):
a defense and say, hey, us two, we're gonna have him.
So now it's eight on eleven. You see what I'm
saying because two of us have worried about this one man. Yeah,
that's the difference that people don't understand when it comes
to football and things of that nature. When you gotta
when you got a receiver or when you got a
playmaker like that, when he on that field at any

(56:13):
given time, he could bump his head on that gold post.
You see what I'm saying. That opened that opened up
a little bit of the passing game that Notre Dame
did do. And love having them three big runs and
it was, you know, thirty two and whatever the backs was.

Speaker 5 (56:30):
You know for Notre Dame.

Speaker 2 (56:31):
They had a couple of good, solid runs. But number
four he can go eighty oh.

Speaker 5 (56:37):
Yeah, and he typically does like he's been their best
player all year long.

Speaker 2 (56:41):
Oh yeah. And then I didn't know his knee injury
was as significant as it was. Man, he got a
bad knee injury. Boom, Yes he out there with a
super brace on.

Speaker 5 (56:50):
Yeah, and he's still.

Speaker 2 (56:53):
Comes man, That's what I'm saying. So yeah, So I
think that is the key getting him the ball and
uh double team in number four. Take the same strategy
that uh who who Ohio State just played? Oh just
play Texas strategy. Texas had use that same strategy on

(57:16):
number four. Put two people on them and be like,
hey not today.

Speaker 3 (57:22):
I was about to say, No, the Dame better have
every preject that school praying over that dB room every
day every night. They need to be praying over that
dB room while they're in there, while they're not in there,
because you know, the Dame ain't got nobody for number four.

Speaker 5 (57:39):
Your body in the country, dude.

Speaker 3 (57:43):
Right but right now that don't matter. All the other
teams in the country ain't got to see him on
Monday night. No, the Dame, dude. And that's not the
Dame problem right now. And that's a big problem, Joe
not out.

Speaker 1 (57:59):
Yeah, I'm a know the Dame fan, and I'm hoping
they can win the game and win the national title.
But realistically, I just don't. I just don't see how
I know that day can be Ohio State. Ohio State
is you know that to me, they they was the
best team in the college football playoffs from from the

(58:20):
first game all.

Speaker 5 (58:21):
The way up to now. I think they looked the
most impressive.

Speaker 1 (58:24):
They look the most dominant, and that that's gonna be
a big hill to climb, you know what I'm saying.
It is the number one and number two defenses in
the country. So you know, but like like you said,
whatever what I would do, I would look at what
the tape of Michigan, whatever Michigan did do that. I
didn't watch the game. I just know, Michigan beat them

(58:47):
in the upset and it was a low scoring, ugly game.
So whatever Michigan did to make that game.

Speaker 2 (58:53):
But that's what But that's what we're talking about, Cob
and that's what I said. Well, you got a back
like number four, and yeah he's back and he can
go eighty yea, get it twisted. He can give you
five here, ten, head twenty. You know, he's a back.
And what I'm saying is, though I think he should
be the people should come in and and spur him.

(59:15):
Let other guy running backs come in and change up,
because even if he's not getting the ball when he's
on the field, you have to account for him. Right.

Speaker 1 (59:24):
Yeah, they got they got three backs that they really like,
and they try to and they try to split up
their carries. But I was in the I was in
the crib watching the Notre Dame Georgia gave him a possu.
I'm like, I'm telling them about number four love, like
that's the guy, and they.

Speaker 5 (59:41):
Just wouldn't give him the ball like it was it
was a quarter in the house. He didn't even touch
the ball.

Speaker 2 (59:46):
So yeah, in the first in the first half, that's
why the game was the way it was. Remember in
the first half, I think he only had maybe two carries.

Speaker 5 (59:55):
Yeah, when he came out.

Speaker 2 (59:56):
Yeah, and when he came on the second half, Marcus
free even know whoever one say not hold up. If
he out here and he dressed and he say he
can go, then ship let's get him the ball. And
sure enough the first three plays what went one win fifteen,
the other one went twenty. Next you know, they had
me and field, you know what I'm saying, or the

(01:00:16):
other teams. So that's what I'm saying. So if they
can continue to do that and play good solids, because
you don't have to have somebody to cover number four. Right,
this ain't a one on one, This ain't tennis what
you're talking about. I don't have to have it. If
our secondary can stop their most their their wide receiver, right,

(01:00:40):
if we can stop their wide receiver, then we'll be fine.
So somebody's going so so yeah, we might have to
double team them. So what Yeah the secondary for no,
the dame that so what. Yeah, we're gonna double team them.
We're gonna rober him, We're gonna put robber on them.
We gonna have somebody. Yeah, that's and that's the sign
of respect. So in Ohio, they's gonna have to figure

(01:01:00):
it out. So good luck to their offensive coordinator or whatever.
But you gotta get him the ball because he ain't
gonna be too happy having five targets like he had
last game. Bet start wunning some jet sweeps with him
or something. But do something. Give him the ball?

Speaker 5 (01:01:17):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 1 (01:01:19):
Before we get out of here, one more topic I
wanted to discuss the NBA. Is that brand starting to fade?
And it's so whid Why why you think that? Because
I know the ratings are way down and people just
don't seem interested in watching the NBA games anymore. I
know I'm not and I'm a basketball guy, but I

(01:01:39):
just I'm not motivated to to watch the game.

Speaker 2 (01:01:43):
So what you do, I'm gonna be honest with you,
and I'm gonna let I'm gonna be very short. Last night,
the Denver Nuggets played against the Dallas Matrish. He's a
die hard Dallas fan. I don't really have an NBA team.
My team we won six now six NBA titles Chicago Bulls,

(01:02:03):
so I don't have an NBA team anymore. So with
that being said, but good I used to always love
watching NBA basketball. I'm a fan of basketball, right right, Man,
I went and watch the Netflix series, Uh Godless, About

(01:02:28):
a Cow, About the cow, about a cowboy, about the
caw of old Western, you know what I mean. That's
how instead of watching the Dallas Mavericks, you know what
I mean? Back in the Denver, I wouldn't watch because
I mean, it's just the basketball is so different now.

(01:02:50):
I feel like I don't relate to it until playoffs, right,
But but to see a young man come down, you know,
get the ball, they out let him, he on the wing,
get the ball and it's two on one or it's
three on two and he's stopping shoot a three pointer
instead of just driving addition to get a layup. That

(01:03:11):
let me know I don't And then it's like we
talked about it's too much. He's not a or he's
a defensive player or whatever it is, however they say
it now, so yeah, like a two way player. Like
so I don't know this game. So yeah, I watched playoffs.

Speaker 1 (01:03:30):
Yeah, pooh, what you think about the NBA brand right now?
Do you think is a sinking ship?

Speaker 3 (01:03:36):
I don't think it's a single ship, but I think that.
I think right now the reason ratings are down, they're
still talking about Nielsen. You know, people who sitting in
front of a TV watching a game. Like there's so
many different ways now that people consume media. You know
what I'm saying, that I watched games on my phone.

(01:03:58):
You know what I'm saying, I haven't watched the game.
Or if I'm watching the game, it's at a bar,
you know what I'm saying. So I don't necessarily think
that the brand is is the same. You know. Plus,
it's so much more now for everybody to assume. Like
when Michael Jordan was playing, it wasn't no Netflix. You

(01:04:19):
know what I'm saying. It wasn't no Hulu, it wasn't
all the different.

Speaker 2 (01:04:23):
Things you can say Michael Jordan. Ah you want, but
he was Netflix. He was Don't believe Michael Jordan. M
it no, don't, don't, don't, don't.

Speaker 3 (01:04:30):
You don't need to Michael Jordan.

Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
It was Netflix. People still gonna get that. People ain't
people not watching Netflix. People gonna watch Michael Jordan. So
you can go to the next person talk about Kobe
or Lebron or Magic Johnson. You got.

Speaker 3 (01:04:49):
My boy, Well, Michael he was the him and his
brand in the n b A was the main focus
because it was not people did not have all the
different things to to Doc.

Speaker 2 (01:05:12):
Coach go ahead.

Speaker 3 (01:05:15):
Like NFL view ship was higher when it was when
it wasn't no cable, when it was just four five
seven and none, everybody sat around on something like. People
still do it, but the viewership looks like it's down
because people's stream games, they do all types of ship's.
There's more stuff here so people can can divert their

(01:05:36):
attention more way. Michael Jordan, you don't nobody care about
Michael George.

Speaker 2 (01:05:42):
People gonna show up to see Mike Jordan's that's all.

Speaker 3 (01:05:47):
George ain't better than Lebron. Lebron is the can't run
and you you know, oh o o mushrooms companies now

(01:06:08):
out there.

Speaker 2 (01:06:10):
He wasn't better than them. He wasn't better than LeVar Young.

Speaker 3 (01:06:13):
Now now, hey, you or mushrooms and gumpanies out there there,
that's right.

Speaker 2 (01:06:20):
But whatever that is, I don't even know. I don't
I don't even know what must all that is? Whatever? Yeah,
uh forget all that. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:06:32):
Exactly, but my guy, you can't say Michael Jordan name
at him jumping out there. But my point still saying
that when Mike was playing that there were not as
many other distractions, you know what I'm saying. So no,
no disrespect to Mike.

Speaker 2 (01:06:48):
It's too late. You already disrespected.

Speaker 3 (01:06:51):
You know what I was saying.

Speaker 5 (01:06:54):
You just hear.

Speaker 1 (01:06:57):
What No, No, we'll say poo poom you make you
make fan point. But what about like somebody like me.
I like, I'm a basketball guy. I always watched basketball.
You know, TNT was what Tuesday and Thursday, got ESPN
on Wednesday and Friday one of the TV I'm watching
every game. But now you know, and you know, I'm
a Lebron Lakers guy. Like a couple of weeks ago,

(01:07:20):
they was on TV playing the Dallas Mavericks. I might
have turned it on, watched maybe a minute two minutes
of the game and turned to a show, a movie,
or whatever the case may be. And you know, so
for somebody like me that's not even interested in watching
the game right now, I think it's because of multiple things. One,
the competition not the same, nobody going out each other,

(01:07:43):
you know what I mean. The competition is weak. Two,
no one's playing any defense. It's just like a running
up and down the court All Star game. Nice dunk,
nice three point shot, or whatever the case may be.
And then the simple fact you never know who's going
to be playing from game to game. You turned on like, oh, man,

(01:08:05):
look Lebron going against Luca.

Speaker 5 (01:08:07):
You turn on the game. Lebron in the sweatsuit, Luca
had some jeans.

Speaker 2 (01:08:12):
Jordan's played all his game.

Speaker 5 (01:08:14):
He did, he did, God bless him.

Speaker 2 (01:08:17):
Yes, Michael Jordan's you're talking about me talking about no
no TVs, no whatever. Man, it was people when they
went to a Hey when they was on the Dream
Team and they went over there, who the people said,
Michael Jordan?

Speaker 5 (01:08:34):
Who those people came out to see John Stockton.

Speaker 2 (01:08:45):
No magic. They ain't see no magic. They wasn't tripping off,
no magic.

Speaker 1 (01:08:50):
Jordan's the brand Jordan that they used to the NBA.
And to get to talking about my point of saying that, well,
now the game is international. Oh so they did that
job with Jordan's. Now at the game is supposed to
be bigger than ever.

Speaker 3 (01:09:07):
But now it.

Speaker 2 (01:09:07):
Seems like this year in particular, that the But but
that's what I'm saying. You're number one guy who's the
number one who who is the attraction? If it was
one player, you have to say the attraction NBA, it's.

Speaker 5 (01:09:24):
Just the problem is a forty year old man.

Speaker 2 (01:09:26):
That's my point. That's what I'm saying. It ain't no,
ain't no nobody tripping on watching him do what he do. Man,
nobody want nobody. May you know Lebron. They ain't got
a recipe he doing this thing? You got son in
the league.

Speaker 5 (01:09:43):
But they do anytime you're on TV.

Speaker 1 (01:09:45):
In terms of if you compare it to other NBA games,
they always got the highest rating, just like, yeah, they.

Speaker 2 (01:09:51):
Gonna have the highest rating because they also are the Lakers.

Speaker 3 (01:09:54):
But I also think that when you look at at
the top five players.

Speaker 2 (01:09:59):
In the NBA, top five players, Pony.

Speaker 3 (01:10:02):
Well, so I would say going into this year, I
would say top five will be Joker, Johannis.

Speaker 2 (01:10:08):
Uhcause you you just said three people that the first
three people you said are international, correct, right.

Speaker 3 (01:10:21):
But so my point is though we're half of at
least half of them don't have an aesthetically pleasing game.
So we say out of them, four out of shade,
uh even shade a little bit like that, not that
it's international, is like it ain't nothing pretty about their game,

(01:10:45):
Like it ain't nothing like this.

Speaker 2 (01:10:46):
Like like he asked you who the.

Speaker 5 (01:10:49):
Top five was. The first four people you named were
people from outside of the US.

Speaker 2 (01:10:55):
Thank you. That's what I'm saying. So it don't matter,
bro it. But what I'm saying is who is the
Who is the US A player that's dunk and shooting
the three?

Speaker 5 (01:11:10):
He's not there yet.

Speaker 2 (01:11:11):
But Anthony Edwards a couple of years ago, it was
Steph Kirk.

Speaker 3 (01:11:15):
He was going it should have been it should have
been every Edwards and John Moran, but messed up the
bad Moran. But I think that there's there's little ship
that they could do the to uh like John Moran
Everthony Edwards, I think they should be in a dunk contest,

(01:11:39):
you know, don't it should be, But he will have career.
Jason Tatum like he like a vanilla wafer man. You
know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (01:11:50):
I like the boy out of Houston. That's that's that.

Speaker 5 (01:11:56):
Boy.

Speaker 2 (01:11:57):
I like him and him and John Moran was going
out of the little bit the other night. But they
need more of that, you know what I mean? They
need more of that going at each other talking trash
to each other.

Speaker 5 (01:12:06):
That's Jalen Green. God what's his name? Play for?

Speaker 3 (01:12:10):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (01:12:12):
Play for the Detroit Pistons. Conanham Kay Cunningham quietly is
having a season the season for the record, like he's
a star now. But him and Green got bad blood
going all the way back to high school. So when
they go out each other or it's something to see.
Now that's entertained basketball.

Speaker 3 (01:12:34):
That's what I'm saying, ain't no good. So you know
what I'm saying. They got to put him on a
good team and that's what's going to increase.

Speaker 2 (01:12:45):
But but still knowing that, now when I know that
Detroit is playing against Houston, pol or Cole, Now I'm
I'm gonna tune in.

Speaker 1 (01:12:54):
Yeah, you knowing each other face they getting.

Speaker 5 (01:12:59):
Like you just entertaining entertainment.

Speaker 2 (01:13:02):
Yeah, because the NBA now is like like I'll start
watching a little bit more after the All Star But man, man,
that for what.

Speaker 3 (01:13:16):
But I also I ain't man that it goes taking
days off man like, because.

Speaker 2 (01:13:27):
Well you was a you that was you was that
type of player. You took days off all the time.
That's why we were terrible when I did play with you.
And that's why I was saying that that's why the
that's why the offensive line at the time at Howard Kobe,
that's why they was terrible because because the leader who's
supposed to be the leader one foot one old lineman
one office of lineman at an HBCU. Now, I can't

(01:13:52):
name this many people, and I ain't giving him as
Flowers because everybody knows on the No Cap Sports Show,
O g Fredo Money and all our listeners and yours know,
I can't stand that lifekined Bade. Dude, I don't like him.
Everybody knows that. With that being said, I'm gonna give
him miss Flowers while he's here, and I don't have

(01:14:13):
a problem with that. Ain't nobody win no no office
of lineman at the HPCU. What he did, he won
best office of Lineman for back in the days, all
you young listeners and viewers, Kenny Gallup and all the
rest of the crew. It was Division one double A.
Wasn't no FCS or fb at whatever. It was Division one,
division one. He won the best office of Lineman for

(01:14:37):
Division one double A. That's the William and Marriage, that's
the North Dakota States, that's the Montana State. All that.
But with that being said, whom we come out to
practice want he might come out in a hoodie and
some sweat paints.

Speaker 3 (01:14:52):
So we don't know if you don't tell you.

Speaker 2 (01:14:57):
The students only as good as your leadership is a
great player, the old leader Bubbah dah track.

Speaker 3 (01:15:08):
Let me let me go back to what I was saying.
If you look at why NBA careers now are lasting
a lot longer, it's because the science is better and
people are taking the day. Like so when you say
you don't know who's playing, all of eighty two jokers
making business decisions man for their brand and they're extending
their careers.

Speaker 2 (01:15:29):
You know what I'm saying, You extending your career put me.
But the question is the brand. The overall NBA brand
is falling off, you know, like if yeah, you extending
your career. But eventually the NBA is gonna say, Okay,
well we're gonna find a way to get some of
this money back. We're gonna recruit some of this money,
you know. And they might not know now, but you
better believe they're gonna Findin't no owner, I'm not. If

(01:15:49):
I'm an owner, I'm not Whoever is paying Kawhi Leonard.
God Man, let's to you, bro, you a better man
than me, because ain't nobody uh uh killed the game
like Kawhi.

Speaker 3 (01:16:02):
Kawhi Leonard, the best of all, the greater ever did it.

Speaker 2 (01:16:06):
I like Kawh almost as much as I like Kobe.
I mean, like Michael Joe, just for a simple fact
that nobody do it like him.

Speaker 1 (01:16:13):
Many compete with him, I think, and be trying to
compete with him.

Speaker 2 (01:16:22):
Man be playing man, he be playing. He ain't man,
Kawhi Man Kawhi Lennard, Man, ain't nobody.

Speaker 3 (01:16:32):
I looked at it. Look like he don't even like
to play in the NBA like he He's like, I
don't even like it in the NBA, Like I'm here
because he hate me a lot. I don't want to
be here. You know what I'm saying, y'all can't play Kawhi.

Speaker 2 (01:16:48):
Look like he better off. He had more fun just
chilling at the recreation center, running an adult league, having
the fellas back in where he's from, in San Diego,
in the city, doing what he's doing in the city.

Speaker 3 (01:16:59):
Man, And I'm sure that.

(01:18:00):
him learn the game, let him play sports. If he's good,
get with some people that are some good people that's
around you that will help you make some great decisions.
But we're seeing now where kids are talking about transfer

(01:18:20):
a portal in Little League Boys and Girls club and
they're already talking about the transfer a port If you
got to sit out or wait your turn, hey, eventually,
if your goal is ultimately to get to the national
Football League Trust and Beliegue or any professional sport league.

(01:18:42):
They're gonna have to wait. So let's teach him as
a young and show him the correct way. But people
posting talking about yeah, transfer a portal, my kid is
in this. That's the wrong thing, man, that's the wrong thing.
So I just wanted to I'm on here and say that, hey,
love your kids, show them the right way. Get it

(01:19:04):
with some people on all levels, high school, college pros.
Get them with some people that truly, truly has their
best interest at heart, and it's not about the bag
or trying to, you know, feed you something that's not true.
And I just we have to know. Cash for Show
wanted to come on here and all our listeners and viewers.

(01:19:24):
I just wanted to tell you guys that because I
saw some stuff yesterday. I talked about it with the
OG and it was just crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:19:33):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:19:34):
I seen a little kid literally up pum Cod. This
kid is maybe ten years old and he's talking about
I'm going into transfer a port for little league football.

Speaker 5 (01:19:46):
That's crazy, and you want to know.

Speaker 2 (01:19:49):
And one of your questions was, why is the NBA
brand show water? Damn? What you mean? There? You go
transfer a portal at ten years old.

Speaker 3 (01:20:05):
I thought that when it happened a couple of months ago,
it was crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:20:07):
Man.

Speaker 3 (01:20:08):
But that's just that's just cheap. That's that's that's this
new Internet generation and people just wanting to do anything
for social media for.

Speaker 2 (01:20:18):
For like and that's say, you know, yeah, but but
poom the kid is really leaving the team he was
with to go to another team.

Speaker 3 (01:20:26):
Though.

Speaker 5 (01:20:26):
Yeah, it was really you know what I'm saying, right,
but but.

Speaker 2 (01:20:31):
But that's but that's what I'm That was my point.
It wasn't so much talking about the transfer portal. What
I'm saying is let these kids go out and compete.
And if you gotta wait because it's a Pomy Massiveini
that's in front of you, then you just gotta wait
your turn. Right. How about how about how about instead
of leaving, how about learning from Pomie Massimini and then

(01:20:53):
that way when it is my turn, or learning from
a Kobe at the two or the three, or he's
playing the four, but he could play the two and
it and how man, how can I learn and get
my game and add those pieces to my game instead
of leaving Because ultimately, at the end of the at
the end of the day. Now it doesn't it doesn't matter.
I don't care what's sport you and if ultimately, at

(01:21:14):
the end of the day, your job is if you're
trying to play professionally, you're gonna have to You're gonna
you're gonna wait there because those professionals are not gonna
let you take their job. You're not you. It ain't
no transfer portal at the professional level.

Speaker 3 (01:21:30):
No, okay, then it's a micro no. No, I'm a
thousand percent behind. I think that this this generation, that
they don't understand adversity in sports. You don't. They don't
understand that there's nothing wrong with there's nothing wrong with
learning is there's nothing wrong with not going somewhere and

(01:21:51):
instantly being the guy, you know what I'm saying. And
the difference is now like when we was coming up,
it wasn't fifty seven different AAU teams like you know
what I'm saying, Like you went from somewhere and if
you ain't played one, like you could go and bounce,
you could go somewhere else. But everybody was loaded, you

(01:22:14):
know what I'm saying, Like everybody was flooded. It wasn't
like you could just all right, I'm gonna go to
this team and i'mna be the only person on there.
Like now, then there's hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of
teams in every city, you know what I'm saying. So,
but that's because parents make teams so their kids can
be the guy. You know, unless you can as a parent,

(01:22:37):
you need to say, hey, listen, but omar also, everybody
has as doesn't have the the advantage of having played
the sport, having having learned that way.

Speaker 2 (01:22:49):
You know what I'm saying, if you listen to what
I said, Mpumie Massanini, I said, get with somebody who
does nothing, or I got nicked.

Speaker 3 (01:22:58):
Off, I got my mind, might extreme die. But no, no,
I was saying. I just I you know, I got
a sun in high school. So I see this ship
all the time, Like and you see kids playing for
four or five different high schools and four or five years,
you know what I'm saying, Like it's every every year,

(01:23:19):
like I'm going here, I'm going here, and and you
know these kids they'll be texting and dudes and like,
hey man, let's why don't you transfer the roads with
me or transfer here with me? And I'd be like man,
you ain't going nowhere like you're in Saint allbans Man.
You get you want an honor roll. That ship is
bigger than for I mean basketball. You know what I'm saying, Like, yeah,
you soation.

Speaker 2 (01:23:43):
You learn how to survive on your own at a
boarding school, doing very well in the nation's capital camp.

Speaker 3 (01:23:51):
But the but the the problem is I don't think that.
And I was talking with EJ about this right we
was weyt played on Saturday. They had a little tournament
up at Georgia. I prep is that a lot of
parents of these younger kids, this younger generation, doesn't look
at what sports does for your kids, like they don't

(01:24:13):
look at the totality of what it does. Like people
used to companies used to want to hire former athletes
because they knew that they were team players. That you
know what I'm saying that that most athletes can go
into a situation and work for the common good amongst
other people. Right now, these younger they don't. It's nothing

(01:24:34):
about team. It's nothing about because if parents are poisoning them.
You know what I'm saying, No, no, no, no, I'm not.
I'm not I'm not going against Like I said, I
got my team got cut off, so I didn't hear
everything you said.

Speaker 2 (01:24:49):
But it's just awful and terrible and have to in
no disrespect to all I know, cashpoards show and and
my brother right here will tell you. I tell my
next for you all the time. He sucks too. He's terrible.
So I tell everybody all these all all y'all terrible,
whatever the case may be, until you can learn how
to show me a real triple threat. Can you show

(01:25:11):
me the rules? And do you know all the rules
of basketball? How about that? Let's start off there. Do
you know all the rules of the basketball game. Some
of these kids don't even know the rules of basketball,
you know, So my my point is to my nephew, Hey, dude,
I'm more proud of you being going off on your own,
doing what you gotta do, being on the honor roll,

(01:25:31):
getting straight a's, getting this already, your Scott, your your
college education is already paid for because you already got
one scholarship off you're gonna get You're gonna get more.
You're only a junior. So that's what I'm proud of.
So it don't matter if you have thirty seven and
he scored thirty seven points. I'm uncle Oak gonna be

(01:25:52):
more proud of if he got over when it came
time for the swat the pick and roll and he
rotated and he was the third man in rotate. That
that's what I care about, because that lets me know you.
Now you're starting to know the essence of the game,
right and that right there will take you a very
long way. Everybody can't be Everybody can't be shooters like Covie.
Everybody can't be a slam dunker. Some people just got

(01:26:15):
to be hell of a rebound. And if you a
hell of a rebound and you averaging fifteen rebounds and
ten three rebounds, nephew or whoever you make the case
may be, whatever type of player you are, they got
a spot for it. We had a person come on
here on this very show, Alexandria's own Keith Bogan. What
do he say? I had to find my niche, and

(01:26:36):
my niche was being a defensive player and that's why
he got over twelve years in the NBA. Fact and
it ain't nothing wrong with that because a lot of
times when they call that starting five out, he was
one of them starting five. And if he wasn't he
definitely played the meaningful minutes.

Speaker 3 (01:26:52):
Yeah, yeah, that's all Pat verb and Gil and Ris
having a conversation Man thirty seven in high school. Yeah,
he was a defensive player the NBA. Is he in
the NBA this year or no, No he's not.

Speaker 2 (01:27:13):
Okay, So but he easily got what at least ten
almost twelve years. Oh yeah, he double digits. Yeah, so
that's so, that's that's the point. So that's all we're
trying to say to all our listeners and viewers. I
apologize we went a little later than we normally do,
but I just want to tell you all our listeners
and viewers, Hey, let your kids be kids. Teach them

(01:27:36):
the correct way. If you don't know, get with somebody
that truly cares about your son or your daughter or
whatever the case may be. That's going to help them,
you know, learn the essence the nuances of the game
and teach them the correct way period.

Speaker 3 (01:27:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:27:53):
Hey, Hey, that's that's Hey, that was wisdom right there.
That that was that was great information. Before we get
out of here, I just wanted to say, uh, the
No Cash Boys Show podcast crew like to send out
love and our prayers to all the folks affected by
the southern California wildfires. I know that a lot of
