Speaker 1 (00:02):
Lunchtimers. This is the Matt Thomas Show.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Twelve oh two in Age Town. What's happening lunch timers.
Good afternoon to you, and welcome to a Tuesday edition
of The Matt Thomas Show with Ross. Ross had to
carry the heavy lifting yesterday because can I just spout
off about something nonsports for a minute, I mean one

(00:27):
of fourteen seconds into the show, Gordy staying here stee,
because I need a second set of years on this one.
So I had my daughter had an official recruiting visit
this weekend to a school in the East Coast, and
we had a really good time. Intruder very well. She
loved the school. Blah blah blah blah. So it was

(00:49):
just really fun. And so they had a game on
Sunday afternoon. It won. The flight was at five. I
had to connect through Newark Airport. Oh wow, which is
in itself as a disaster because, by the way, you
can't get any more fast foods and hote and airports anywhere.
They're just these fancy burgers, fancy burritos, sushi twenty seven

(01:09):
dollars later. Yeah, there's no McDonald's, there's no more Burger cane, Bendy's,
Bendy's all that. So I had a two hour and
forty five minute layover in Newark, Okay, which is first
of all, way too long. But you know what be
too long and too short? You poor baby, that's it
feels like a clip. Oh hi Connor. Uh. So the

(01:37):
flight was delayed not because of whether in where I
was or in Newark. It was they said they're not
enough air traffic controllers. Is the union on strike?

Speaker 3 (01:49):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:49):
I think they just are looking for people, don't. They
make a ton of money. But also it's like an
extremely high stressed job. Yes, and they make a lot
of money, but it's so high stress that why would
you quit? I mean, we, you and I have stressful jobs,
but in the big picture, we're not on the top
of the list. We have stress to exceed, but we
don't have a stressful in terms of we're not digging ditches,
we're not in construction, right, it's not physically taxing to

(02:12):
hank well, it's mostly taxing to hand out is different. Yes,
I show open sweatpants and talk about sports. So the
issue is this, there were not enough air traffic controllers,
so they had what they call a ground stoppage slash
slow down, okay, and they kept delaying. You know when
you know on Schmid they give you delays of this
plane's delayed twenty minutes, forty They give you in chunks

(02:32):
right telling you what. They string you along these days,
which I hate. It feels like it should be illegal.
So I was strung along so late that two hour
and forty minute delay or that change of planes was
going to be minus eleven minutes. I was going to
definitely miss the flight. But I thought to myself, well,
if they're slowing the planes down going into Newark, they're
probably going to be slowing the planes going out. So

(02:54):
they said you could either stay and said town and
rebook for tomorrow, or you can try to fly to
Newark and then catch your flight and come home. So
I said, you know what, either way, if I missed
the flights, I got to spend the night in this
city or the next Newark. I thought, well, I might
as well get to Newark. It's a little bit closer
to home. So I flew of Newark try to go
to the terminal where my flight was canceled. They took

(03:17):
off without me. M I'm sorry, Matt, you get a
refund on that. That's my question. Boys we have Yeah,
it was connecting flight.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
Yeah, and and they left without you.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
They left without me. So now if it's mechanical issues,
the airline gives you dinner, hotel, blah blah blah blah blah.
This was the flight. This was the air traffic control
at Newark Airport. So Schmid, it's like bat bitch.

Speaker 4 (03:48):
Yeah, we got some We got some space on the
floor right there if you'd like to pick up a bed,
that's right.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
So so do you do you file a complaint with
the New York Newark Airport? What are they gonna do?
What is Smina gonna do? Not our fault. We tried
to get you there.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
I will say Newark has done some renovations in recent years,
nicer airport than it used to be.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, but again, I want my McDonald's, I want my Bendi's.
I don't want Fogo food is eighty one dollars for
a cheeseburger.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
You can take it a cab into the city, the
little sight seeing.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
I could have made it in time to go watch
the Giants Bengals game, but then I got to the
hotel and the game was a dog, because that wasn't
a big deal. Point Thinger says, I don't have anybody
to sue.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
So you paid out of pocket for a hotel. Yes, wow,
that sucks.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
And the cab ride because the Ubers were Remember how
bad it was in New Ork. I told you before
how bad Ubers are. So I took a cab from
the Newark airport to the airport hotel that I'm choosing,
and I looked at him as two miles. I said,
cab I need, and he goes, okay, hold on, I
go to cabin for six, but we'd be thirty five dollars.
Thirty five dollars i'd walk. I said, you are you

(04:57):
are taking advantage of me. He goes, That's just what
it is. I said, you are taking manage Me goes, Yes,
we are. That's why these crooks got busted up by
Ubers and uber and lifted in the first place.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
That's why you look for a gypsy cab in New York.
Those are the vans. They got little crowns hanging. They'll
they'll do like twenty dollars wherever you want to go.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
So you could easily just tell you can both of
you can tell me sorry, that's them's the breaks. Well,
thems are the breaks. But why I made it too
my flight? Yes, you did everything you could. I did
everything I could, and I had to go pay an
amount of money. Now I can have certainly afforded, but
it was still an aggravation. I didn't get back in time,
missed the show with YouTube yesterday which we needed to

(05:33):
break down the Texans like a mutter, and we will
do that again today. Okay, can't wait because nobody else
in the market's doing that. Apparent No, everybody's talking about
other things like soccer and college football and basketball. We're
talking to Texans. Okay.

Speaker 4 (05:44):
I think the moral of the story here is your
daughter does not need to go to school up there.
This is gonna happen again every time you want to
go up there to see a game. You're probably right.
Let's get gonnas you it's four hours down the road.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
You need to have LSU call my girl. I'm asking
a volleyball squad looking over there. I think their middle
of the pack in the SEC.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
Okay, you t is pretty strong.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
Back back national championships. That strong? Can we get her
on that radar? If you I don't know if she's
up to snuff. I'm sorry. I mean, that's really rude.
And if she was listening right now, she would curse
you out. But since she's not, she's in school getting education.
She won't let me do it this time. You're oh, no,
we don't. We're not doing love it, man, I love

(06:25):
texta tech, but have for volleyball. Okay, just wink wink.
Uh So, I just I saw my story. That's all
I got. I'm just I was just frustrated because I
couldn't get back, be on a pant in my pocket,
to go to a hotel and see being in the know.
If you guys have been to this before. But I
was in Newark. No one knew me, no one liked me,

(06:45):
poor baby, no one. I was just on the was
we talk sports? After this pity point, I was a
lost soul. At least if I was in you know,
if I was stuck in Houston, can call you guys, Hey,
let's go and have dinner or something.

Speaker 4 (06:58):
I was How are the colleges okay?

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Spectacular? Okay, we had a great time. Part of the
country we were in was amazing and great, great, great visits.
Just that was a sucking end. It just come December.
It might be a little rough.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
A lot of diversity up in Rhode Island.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
Mentioned school, No, the state still it's I mean like
forty ye schools in Front Island. I mean, come on, now,
get a little a little bit of surprise. Widen country, right, No,
it's the entire ghost it's it's it's uh, it's up there,
that whole pocket of the country. But that's not only
here and nor there. I will say this. I got
to watch the Texans New England game. Oh yeah, it

(07:38):
was on TV. Yeah, it was on TV. It was
not the number one game, but it was a regional
game and I was in that region. So that was good.
What a mess? The Patriots are the only thing good
about it. Thanks Gordy, appreciate you. Uh. The only thing
about that game was that the Patriots uniforms were amazing.
Everything else sucked and Drake May wasn't terrible, right, I
don't think it was OK. It was fine. It was

(07:59):
better than just to copy percent for a rookie making
his very first start. He was solid. I was listening
to CROs the Patriots radio network. You listen to the
post game. Uh No, I was at the airports. But
the Patriots were like, you know what, we know who
Jacoby Pressett is. We're good. M we don't know who
Drake may is number three pick throw him out there. Yeah,
you might as well do something. Yeah, so your Texans

(08:22):
are five and one, five and one. Baby battle at
Ross is happy, We're looking good. Best one of the season,
sex and standard one was he been happy? Did you
and you were standing? I think he's doing okay.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
I think he's a little worried about the linebacker injuries,
and he should be. There's actually quite a few injuries
and suspensions. It's it's yeah, it's kind of not Not
every NFL team goes through this clearly, but right now
it's kind of manifesting itself. Mario Edwards see you in
four weeks? Or is that kids call him Rio? Rio
Edwards see in four weeks? It's funny, you know what,

(08:53):
Rio Audrey's back. That's good. Rio's people reach out to
this radio station to do a weekly hit with him.
They did, Yes, why'd we say no, Well, we'd have
to have him out for four weeks. Well, I'm saying,
how do you say, hey, man, Reo? What did you
party too hard? Did you take a pat I mean
he obviously did something. No, you know he hasn't released
a statement yet. No, I can already predict basically what's

(09:16):
gonna happen. Well, so he took an over the counter
supplement that unfortunately I did not vet and happened to
be on the banned substance list. This is a mistake.
I'm going to go back and be better and in
the future be more careful. See you in four weeks.
Butt's see. The problem is he's not announced that. What
the best would have been was say, everybody, I partied

(09:36):
way too hard and I was given something I should
have taken. Because what does that mean? You know you
you've been No, I'm not saying that. I'm just saying
you may have taken something to kind of increase the
enjoyed the environment even further. He was partying with Molly, Okay,

(09:57):
I have no idea. I know someone that took a
Molly within the last and this person, who I will
not name, but she's an attractive female, said, oh my god,
it flips your blank Okay, that's all I got, Thank you, Matt.
I have the boots on the ground. Okay, Molly talk,

(10:18):
I can I can give you best. I've never, never,
never taken Molly, but I could certainly give you the
Molly update. This is getting weird. It's not weird. I'm
just telling you. I know people. Okay, all right, we
have one o'clock today. We have gut feelings. Okay, you'd
to tell the truth yesterday? No we didn't. Oh you didn't.
Now we were busy. How busy were you? I couldn't

(10:38):
come up before believable things? Oh, because I actually tried
for like thirty seconds and I was like, I'm good, Yeah, okay,
one third. We have Ross's NFL rewind Oh we do. Now,
there's so many juicy things on the NFL that I
don't know. We can't wait till one thirty. Okay, because
I think that now, Connor. Have we got the Jerry
Jones audio to an acceptable level? Did you hear Jerry

(10:59):
Jones today? Oh? I didn't hear it, but I saw
the quotes. Well guess what he went off on his
Dallas weekly radio show. Yeah, and we'll hear it. Threatened
to fire the hosts before Well, well here's what Jerry
had to say in a minute seven one three, two,
one two five seven ninety seven one three two one
two five seven. And I also need a second ruling

(11:20):
on airport airplane etiquette, and so I'll need your thoughts
on this is why we've already done this once, but
it's worthy of rediscussing a second time. Seven one three
two one two five seven ninety seven one three two
one two five seven nine zero ward here for Quality
All Products of Texas. Now they are so ridiculously busy

(11:40):
installing generators. They're looking for electricians, they're looking for plumbers

to get your generation stand by generator put in. So,
if you're looking for a career change or you're with
the current company now that's not giving you competitive pay,
not giving you four one can now, giving you time off,

(12:00):

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Lunch timers, lunchtimeers. This is the Matt Thomas Show.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
So the big news in the NFL today is that
Aaron Rodgers has a new wide receiver to third too.
It's his old buddy DeVante Adams from Green Bay, Green
Bay this morning, excuse me, the Las Vegas Raiders this
morning trading him to the Getropolitans for a conditional third
or second round pick, depending on his all pro status.
I can't imagine Devontaea's getting all prope between on the
in the ear and hurt Grouchy. He had like one

(13:01):
big game this year. If he helps the Jets all
of a sudden become a title contender in the AFC,
then obviously he'll get some run. But uh so, Aaron's
on his weekly appearance paid appearance on the Some Show,
and Devanta Adams was with him right there, so obviously
this deal was done late last night. Vante's like, I'll
catch a flight get from LV to New York. Boom,
love it. Hopefully he's ready to go. Hopefully he didn't

(13:23):
have air traffic control problems that would be that would
be bad. Yeah, all right, so that's the big news
Devanta Adams today now a New York j just Paul.
We'll talk to Rotal about that Thursday and how that
will potentially effect the Jets of the receivers the running game.
Aaron Rodgers. I mean, I would assume that DeVante's gotta
be super plead. He's hanging out with you, He's hanging

(13:45):
out Aaron Rodgers. Right now, arrow up for DeVante Adams,
slightly down for Garrett Wilson. Yeah, and again the Jets,
the Raiders, how they even thought about Garner Minshew was
their guy to open up the year is comical. It's fine.
They swapped the aid and O'Connell. They're good now, and
they got their ass beat by Pittsburgh on Sunday. There

(14:06):
was nothing more pleasing than the watching Raider fan fight
anybody from any opposing team. You know what, actually is
also kind of satisfying watching how the Mark Davis moved
the Raiders from Oakland because he wanted all that money
in Las Vegas and every week they're the home team,
they're the home team for the other team, for the

(14:26):
away team, the home crowd for the other team. First
of all, the Steelers travel as good as anybody in
the NFL, there was like fifty thousand terrible towels in
that building. Was there early that many? I mean, maybe
not that, but I get your drip. Yeah, uh yeah,
I would have to say Charger games and Raider games,
you're probably gonna run into just as many fans of
their team. Maybe the Rams would have a little bit

(14:49):
more of them, but it wouldn't be It wouldn't be
like it'd be like fifty five to forty five or
here for a Texans game, it's probably ninety to ten
or unless it's Pittsburgh Cowboys or the cow Well you know,
how about this, how many Texans fans will go to
Dallas from Monday night football? Well, yeah, maybe be a
lot fair number, but still primarily Dallas Cowboy fans. Bring

(15:09):
your brass knuckles. But yeah, every time this Raiders have
a home game, there's a Rider fan fighting with somebody.
That was the one I looked at this morning was
a girl Stevener fan. Apparently I got a beer thrown
at her, and then she got out of her seat
and wanted to throw hands, and then there were other
beers being thrown at this other guy, and we got
to see his gut during this whole These always happening
like in the nineties, and we just everybody didn't have

(15:31):
a cell phone, so we didn't see it as much.
Absolutely me in Oakland, I'm just saying, is the fight
activity up and down or the same the same you think? So, yeah, okay,
that makes me feel better. The only way it feels
like things are getting work, the only way it's ever
going to get reduced for two things. One you eliminate
the cell of alcohol and she's gonna happen happen. Or
two you would add about double the security you would

(15:53):
for an average sporting event in those cities, Like if
you Raiders games. Let's say you hire a thousand security
personnel for a Texas you got to hire thirty five
hundred and four grand for Raiders because you're that's only
is that you had these people consistently patrolling the areas
over every dead ball to make sure rai's behave themselves.
I watched this fight on video this morning. It took
maybe three or four, like three minutes for somebody to

(16:14):
come down there from the Raiders, from the security team
in the Legien stadium. Sometimes you gotta let them fight, Matt,
you do, Yeah, It's like when me and my brother
were fighting when we were kids. Dad, Just like I
just go outside. Many many years ago, my wife and
I went to Miami to go see the Colts take
on the Dolphins on a Monday night football game.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
Huh.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
And it wasn't vicious. It was that Colts fans, excuse me,
Dolphin fans would see attractive female Colts fans and they
would grade them. And my wife's like, why are they
screaming sevens eight nine sevens? I said, figure it out,
and so it took her about five minutes and then
she figured it out. Okay, So I said, don't get
out of your chair. How did you feel their grading

(16:55):
system was calibrated? I tended it properly. I tended to
agree with that. I just did. I you didn't have
like the dunk contest. You didn't have like a flyer
with a number on it. And the funniest part was
a couple of times they were the girls that were
cult fans were so hot. And I didn't think there
were a lot of cult fans, but they were were

(17:16):
hot Colts fans. They were down in Miami that the
guys would two rows in fronts would stand up and
applaud them. Really, that's weird. It was weird. This had happened.
Jim Morrall was the coach at the time. So how
long ago? How many years ago? Yeah, well, this was
I think in the nineteen seventies. That's not true. Stop,
I was married at the times. Okay, you take your
Chevrolet celebrity to the game. Weird stadium by the way, Now,

(17:40):
it's obviously been refurbished, but it was back in that day.
It was called Joe Robbie Stadium. And I remember one
time covering an Oilers Dolphins game. This has got to
be mid nineties. I think Marino was still playing at
the time. Okay, one side of the stadium was raining
and the other was not. I had never in my
life you'd ever remember. Obviously, when you see a rainstorm,
there's got to be a starting to stop somewhere. Just

(18:02):
you wouldn't think it would be in an NFL stadium
where the people on the left hand Cyde were putting
their pacos on and the rights people were just standing
there just going what are they doing over there? And
We're like, oh my god, it's raining over there. Wow.
It was really peculiar. That's interesting. It was a peculiar,
but Miami love you great people, watch love Miami, Love Miami.
A lot of good times in Miami. Super Bowl there
was fun. You went. What was I I must have

(18:24):
been rocking. Yeah, I mean you're always did change planes
in Portland? No, I think we I think we did
change plans in Fort Lauderdale. That's not terrible. Yeah, it's
quick because you've you've unfortunately dealt the been given the
shorts stick draw on changing flights. It's happened from Super
Bowl Indianapolis had to go to Orlando. So if anybody

(18:46):
should empathize with my trials and tribulations yesterday, it should
have been you. Yeah, all right, we owe you that
audio of Jerry and I want to play it the next
sement for sure. Okay, well we need your breakdown in
the Texans game as well. We haven't got it. You
were out yesterday. Uh really sloppy Patriots turnovers. Will Anderson
was amazing. I didn't think too. I didn't have any

(19:09):
concerned my Kimi Fairbar missing a foty yard kick kicks
are gonna be missed. I thinking he's mister back. Joe
Mixon was back, even Damian Pierscott going. Now, I didn't
get to hear a lot of Kevin Harlan's audio, but
I'm going to assume that he was in full Kevin Harlan.
He was, and I was listening to him a little
bit last night because I was driving during Monday night football.
He is so good. He's great on the radio too,

(19:32):
because he'll tell you who's making the block. He'll tell
you like all these little details he sprinkles in in
the middle of the play of telling you the action.
On radio, he's even better. I'm gonna give you a
little secret that he would never admit, and that's okay,
But when you do, when you go to that sometimes
if you can't identify a player right away because you

(19:54):
can't see it or not familiar with that player, that
if you add a little description to it, give a
chance to kind of catch up and figure out who
it is. And that's what makes him so good. Yeah,
he's like a Mike Stroke. As compared to saying first
down and ten for X y Z team X quarterback
throws it's intercepted the twenty five or thirty to thirty five,

(20:14):
he will say ball's intercepted. What an amazing grap high
in the air, came down with it, John Miller, and
then he and then he goes on. He just sneaks
in small delay tactics to make sure he identifies the
player correctly, and it just comes off as fluid as Yeah.
I'm not even talking about necessarily that, which he does great,

(20:35):
but even like on a run play, like you know who,
he knows who the run left guard. Yeah, I learned,
he'll name the left guard who's making a good tackle
in the middle of a good good block in the
middle of it. But as he say, what junior high
school he went to Ala Craig Way, Well, no, he
does it. Unfortunately, he was a wee blow at the
CUB Scouts back when he was eleven ffa national champion.
Craig can do that too. Yeah he can't. It's a

(20:57):
little different, but it's good. Yeah, it's yeah. But Harlan's
just absolutely amazing. And hopefully the Rockets will get a
game with him this year because I know the Rockets
have got two in T and t's this year, so really, yeah,
that's up from last year from one. Yeah, remember that
one game we had it was Oklahoma City game, didn't
tick tip off to like nine forty. I remember that,
and then we flew to Phoenix. From there where literally

(21:18):
I think we're going one hundred miles an hour because
there was so much tailwind. All right, excuse me headwind
on the private plane. Yeah, you're fine, but I still
want to get home. I want to get We've been
throwing a pity party for you for thirty minutes. Yeah,
it feels like it's I'm not getting much. I'm not
getting much reception from people. I don't hear anybody going poor.
You only on deaf ears. It is fault. I think
the whole show is on deaf ears. I think whatever
you did yesterday is not helping.

Speaker 3 (21:38):
True.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
Yeah, that's fine. Gordy hung out for an hour. Clinton
came in, played a little Dimico. It's good show. Did
you do what's talking about? Demiico? No, we did not.
You should actually do that when I was talking live.
Oh you played it live, okay, got you all right?
As promised. Jerry Jones got cranky with his weekly radio hit,
One's How a new weekly radio hit with us who

(22:02):
cow oh cow?

Speaker 3 (22:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (22:06):
Uh never yeah, get them on a mobile. Well, we've
actually done that quite a bit. We should you know
what should do? A live show from a delicious barbecue.

(24:37):
I feel very kind. We're talking about Andre, We're talking
about some dome perry on. That's fine. Oh wow, man,
I'm looking for what I can't so well, how you
feeling about your nine and a half under. I'm gonna
wind up paying, I think, although then they have to
go at four and seven the rest of the way. Yeah,
problem is the AFC South is super sucky. It's looking

(25:00):
good for you, man, that's fine. I mean it's okay.
I don't mind paying. It's okay. I love it when
you pay. Yeah, I know you'll be buying something for
me eventually. Here we go.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
Uh So.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
Jerry Jones goes on one all five to three the
fan okay in Dallas, where he does a weekly appearance.
So they have a ticket and they have a fan
the two most cliche sports radio stations, and they're both
insanely successful. Dang, because Dallas is just one of those.
Is the number one station in that whole city right there.

(25:29):
The ticket usually is always top five. Fans are probably
ten eleven. The last month ticket was number one in Dallas.
I saw an email. That's absolutely crazy. I mean, fandom
in Dallas close. It's us and Sonny every every month,
US Sonny and KSBJ. Yeah, one two three, just mix
him up. So he goes on as Jerry Jones, the

(25:55):
general manager. He doesn't go on as Jerry Jones the owner,
although he's really they're all one of the same, Okay,
I don't. I don't think if he was the owner
he would do a weekly show. I think if it's
just like the GM show. Okay, so it's a GM
portion of the dude get rough el Stone on every
week because NBA doesn't have those moving parts, like, yeah,
that's fine. Move they don't have moving parts like the

(26:18):
other sports. Yeah, so it got kind of cranky to
now counter did you put the question in from the
host on that show? So we at least know the
context of this. There's part of it, okay. So so
the audience is able to figure out exactly what got
Jarah so upset. Here is Jerry Jones this morning on
one O five three the.

Speaker 5 (26:37):
Fan, which there was a lot of criticism that you
guys didn't add, didn't spend, and don't add and don't
spend and are not aggressive enough with some of the
problems that are still haunting the Cowboys today that we
see play it on the field.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
That that's the point of talking about the off season.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
Oh, I remember those criticisms very well. Okay, so what.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
Are they playing out to be accurate?

Speaker 3 (27:00):
What's your point? What's your point? My point is it
seems like, let me tell you what I'll do. Let
me tell you what I'll do about it. I will
let us sit down and look at the decisions we've
made over the last several years. Okay, I'll look at
it now. If you think I'm interested on a phone

(27:21):
call with you over a radio and sitting here and
throwing all the good out with the dishwater, you have
got to be smoking something over there this morning. I'm not,
and I really don't, and I don't need want our
listeners to listen to me to talk about this is
not your job. Your job is to let me go

(27:41):
over all the reasons that I did something and I'm
sorry that I did it. That's not your job. Well,
my job is asking my job, or I'll get another
I'll get somebody else to ask these questions.

Speaker 5 (27:52):
Man, Jerry, We're just we're trying to figure out why
the team out.

Speaker 3 (27:57):
I'm not kidding it. I'm not kidding it. You're not
going to figure out it's what the team is doing
right or wrong. If you are are any five or
ten like you, you need to come to this meeting
I'm going to today. There are thirty two teams. Here
are your geniuses.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
He's speaking of your owner's meetings. Oh, Jerry's not having it.
That's great, that's good stuff. So what he's basically saying is,
I don't want to do this interview if you're going
to question my decisions and what I've done in the past,
and if I have to continue to have this, I'll

(28:39):
just have other people ask me these questions, meaning he
will have team employees ask the questions and soft sell
the questions significantly more than a couple of guys that
are just having to be radio host. So he wants
the message controlled. Wow, and I And honestly, I'm trying

(28:59):
to be objective this. I don't think the frame of
questioning was particularly rude.

Speaker 3 (29:04):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
I don't think it was yeah, combative, I don't. I
think it doesn't have the full context. But it seems
seems like Jerry's very upset. I mean, they just lost
forty seven and nine. You're three and three. You were
supposed to be a Super Bowl contender. I think they
were pretty good last year. Yeah, I think I think
collective of the NFL universe continues to wait for them
to kind of play uped expectations. And basically what they're

(29:25):
saying is the Cowboys didn't do things too And I
don't know their their depth chart well enough, but spending
crazy money on CD Lamb, spending crazy, crazy, crazy money
on Dak Prescott and not filling out other portions of
team in free agency and just basically just signing their
own and calling it today is not what I think
fans have wanted to see. Yeah, Micah Parsons and Dexter
Lawrence and some other pieces on that defense have been hurt,

(29:47):
so they have had some injuries, and I mean they
forty seven and nine, though there's just no excuse for that.
They lost a turnover battle five to zero in that game.
I didn't see the game on Sunday. It was Dak
just awful or was it just throwing a bunch of interceptions.
A couple of them were really bad, some of them

(30:09):
were really good. Play one of them in the corner
to Ceedee Lamb. I think it was like, really good
play by the defender. I don't know if it's Brian Burns,
I can't remember who it was. But some of it
was good play, some of it was, yeah, just poor throws.
The windows are tight in the NFL, and Dak Prescott
was making mistakes and they lost a couple of fumbles,
And honestly, before Aiden Hutchinson went down, I was ready
to just go ahead and crown the Lions super Bowl champs.

(30:31):
Ye what happened there. But this Lion's offense is unstoppable.
They have a top three offensive line, they have two
plus plus running backs, and then they got pass catchers
all over the place. They got maybe arguably the number
one tied end in the NFL with Sam Laporta, and
then they have Aman Ross, Saint Brown and Jameson Williams
is playing well like the Lions are a machine. So
why haven't we jumped on their bandwagon fast enough and

(30:52):
said this is the NFC's best team. They're the NFC's
best team right now. It's gonna be a question with
Aiden Hudgens and their best pass rusher out for the
rest of the season, with his leg snapping in half,
how good is the defense gonna hold up right. So
basically it's them Philadelphia and San Francisco and everybody else
is just in fourth, right, am I forgetting somebody? I
don't think Philadelphia is they won last week, but that

(31:14):
the bull was, by the way, Douche the coach. Yeah,
bringing the sun out there to deflect. Some people wouldn't
get mad at him for fighting with a fan. I mean,
God bless him. It's probably the Vikings. I mean they're
five and oh stam Donald is their quarterback. But they
have Donald. They have the best defense in football though. Yeah,
all right, Jonathan and Katie with us. Can you pop
up a line one for me? Jeremy Jonathan on Sports

(31:36):
Talk seven, I Jonathan, good afternoon, dude.

Speaker 3 (31:39):
What's going on? Matt?

Speaker 2 (31:40):
What you got today?

Speaker 6 (31:42):
So you know I listened to you forever back when
Ross was your noble steed.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
He still he's still a noble steed.

Speaker 3 (31:52):
Oh well, you.

Speaker 6 (31:53):
Don't call you don't ever call him that. And you know,
my work took me away. But now I've been listening.
I've been listening to you guys every day now at lunch,
I sit in my truck eat lunch, listening to you
guys and you know, back in the day, you were
all about the Texans, and listen, I you know, I
was a fan of the Astros, even when they were
begging people to come. You could even bring your own food.

Speaker 3 (32:14):
But that's because they.

Speaker 6 (32:15):
Had a clear plan to move forward. Now with the Texans,
I like you, probably I gave up on them. But
since Cal put down the PlayStation remote and wiped down
his hands of the barbecue sauce and he's kind of
gotten serious about the team. But I've you know, coming
back listening to you, when did you become a Texans hater?

Speaker 2 (32:35):
I'm not a hater. That's the things you don't understand.
I'm just I'm not like ninety eight percent of the
team meeting this market that will just gush over everything
they do. My one football team in my life was
the Houston Owners, and I've been very very clear about
that forever and ever, and when they died, so did
my football fandom. So I am an observer, I am
a realist, and frankly, this organization up until the last

(32:58):
year or so has greatly point of the city of Houston.
And you're absolutely right. I agree. You're absolutely right. Cal
Cal hasn't put the game station down. He's playing as
much as he ever has before. He just lets Hannah
do all the heavy lifting, and for that the organization
should be applauded. They hire the right coach, they hire
the right general manager, they hire the right court, they

(33:20):
signed the right quarterback. They've done a lot of great moves.
But I'm they're just not my team. I just they're
just okay to me. I watch them, I talk about them,
I talk when things are good, but I'm not gonna
gush like a bunch of full meetia in this town
who think they're gonna get super Bowl rings when the
Texans whin they're rings. I just I don't have that

(33:40):
offinity towards them like I had the Rockets and the
Astros because I grew up with those teams, and if
the Orders were still in Houston in twenty twenty four,
maybe I'd be uber Homer like the rest of the
Houston media is. But I'm just not them on them.
I just this is not me, and I think you'd
rather appreciate me being authentic than making up some fake Oh.
I love every everything that every every team in this

(34:01):
team does does when the Astros, fine, But if I
wanted that.

Speaker 6 (34:06):
I'll go to you know, I'll go to six ten,
and I don't want to hear that.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
I'm just this is who I am. I mean, there's
only three things in life sports wise. I love. It's
the Rockets, It's the Astros in the University of Houston, Cougars.
I'm observers of everything else. It's just that's just who
I am. I love it. And what I will say.

Speaker 6 (34:24):
You didn't you might not have got to hear Ross
carried the show yesterday. ROSSI, I listened to you. I
I thought you did a great job. I think maybe
you secretly do carry the Matt Thomas show. You are
no longer that nobles seed my friends.

Speaker 2 (34:39):
Thank you for that amount, all right? Yeah, I say
outwardly carrying, that's secretly caring. Thank you, Jonathan appreciate well.
The numbers say otherwise, But that's a different issue for
a different time. Seven one three two one two. There
are no numbers. People just say that. Just say it.
Seven one three two one two. Good numbers, all right.
Some can celebrate them, some can't. Seven one three, two,

(35:02):
one two five seven eighty Connor, you should be celebrating
the numbers. Yeah, I won't be, but you can. We'll
go eat good. I think I'm getting a value meal
out of the dealer or something. I don't know what
I'm getting out of it. Seven one three two one
two five seven outy seven one three two one two
five seven hinety. We have got feelings coming up at

So I'll sports talk seven ninety for your rockets.

Speaker 4 (36:13):
All right?

Speaker 2 (36:14):
Coming up in it back to ten minutes we're gonna
do gut feelings. And if you're new to the show,
first of all, where the hell have you been? Second
of all, what have you listening to? There's a lot
of crap out there. We're the best thing going on
in the middays, right, Rossie? Don't you feel like it?
And it's not even close because we're real people. We
pour our heart and soul, that's right. We don't make
crap up but gut things or predictions. And we'll make

(36:36):
sports predictions. Now. I was not on last Tuesday. Did
y'all do? Y'all did gut while I was gone? Cost
we did? Okay, So I got I got a fresh
batch of things to get too. Okay, all right, I
don't follow any famous people on Instagram, Rossie. M hmm, okay,
and why are you on there all day?

Speaker 1 (37:02):
Counter hear that?

Speaker 2 (37:02):
You know what?

Speaker 4 (37:03):
That was?

Speaker 2 (37:03):
Rude? I'm just kidding. God, the shade that you throw
at me, well your face, well completely accurate, you know what.
I'm trying to get my followership up, so I've only
got like four hundred followers at sports RV. Yeah, I'm at.
I don't know what I'm at. I don't ever use
I'm trying to use it more. Let me tell you

(37:24):
what I'm at. I'm at sports mpt on Instagram. If
you want to follow me there, let me see what
I'm at. I don't even know I am. I try
to put some more barbecue on there. Is that what
you're doing? I think all my posts are either barbecue
or me at an Astro's playoff game. I have two
thousand and one to diversify. I'm at twenty one thirty
eight on Instagram, so okay. I would think if any
if you follow me on Twitter, you should follow me
on Instagram because I put more pictures and stuff up there.
So okay, But my point so yesterday, I'm flying back

(37:49):
from Newark, and it wasn't a rage that that's too
strong a term, but apparently Bragnant put an Instagram photo
up a couple of days ago, says Astro fans, thank
you for your support all year long. We came up
short this year. Part of the guys for the effort
and the fight, and it kind of created hysteria is
too strong of a term, but it was. It was

(38:12):
some comprehended that as it's another farewell, goodbye message, I'm
gonna read it again, interpreted yes, interpretation Astro fans, thank
you for the support all year long. We came up
short this year, but part of the guys for the
effort and the fight. Now, if you would have said
see you next year, then that would have been a
huge sort of wow. Excited to hashtag run it back. Yeah,

(38:36):
can't wait to see you in West Palm Beach this February.
But that wasn't put in there. Uh huh, but it wasn't.
This was a great ride. Blah blah blah blah blah.
That's all it was. And he's got two and sixteen comments.
That's a lot. And I think somebody, uh like a

(38:57):
chronic or some other aggregated it as another potential farewell message.
I don't read that now, Did I read his tweet
that way? When he did that soon the seasons are
worth yes, I said, thank you, Houston. I also didn't
necessarily need social media to tell me that Alex pregnant
thing about going to play somewhere else, his demeanor, the

(39:17):
round of applause that he got in the final regular
season home game when he left in the middle of
the game. Oh, by the way, he didn't sign a
contract before the start of the season. There were many
other context clues that gave me the indication that Alex
probably isn't gonna be a Houston Astro next year.

Speaker 3 (39:31):
M hm.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
So, I just it was weird to me that when
someone says Alex Bregman posted on Instagram did that? I
went back and looked. I was like, tell me, where
there's the drama in this? It was he said exactly
what I thought he would say, even if he had
a five year extension with the Astros. But isn't it
weird to post this, Like, I mean, you've been out
of it for what like ten days at this point?
How long have they been out a couple of weeks? Yeah,

(39:54):
you're saying you're you're taking the delay as a I'm
not taking it as anything necessarily. It's just it's strikes
me funny. Okay, well what makes you makes it so funny?
It makes me ponder. It's curious, now, remember why would
he Deastros have exclusive negotiating rates with him until five
days after the conclusion of the World Series. Yes, but

(40:16):
in reality, they've had exclusive negotiating rates with him since
the time he's put a uniform. Exactly what's five more
days among friends. He's hitting the market. Yeah, he's hitting
the market. He's gonna get a big deal from someone,
and it could be Houston. I don't think it's going
to be, but it could be. I'm sure. Well, unless
there's already been conversation with Scott Boris, like we'll see
you later. There possibly could be a writer a refusal,

(40:39):
Hey can you if you guys can match us, we'll stay.
Jim Crane will say thanks, but no thanks, and then
he'll be gone and then we'll get the real thanks
for all the memories, love you, Houston, onto my next chapter.
I mean, there would be nothing I wouldn't. I'm not
even saying this for gut feelings, because we've been talking
about this for but eight months now. It'd be nothing
that would satisfy me more than be wrong. But I

(41:00):
but the chances of Alex Berman coming back as an
asteroidt zero percent. I'd love to be wrong as well. Yeah,
I don't. There's nothing that gives me context clues to
think that Alex is even seriously considering coming back, because
I think he. I mean, when you don't get an
offer for me team the entire season, when we had
been talking about this ROSSI since spring training in last year. Yeah,

(41:24):
at Dana on and he was like, yeah, you know,
a few days, I'll give an offer in a few
days And a few days turned into six months. Yeah. No,
he didn't leave camp with an offer. No, he didn't
get one during the season. He didn't get one during
the All Star break, and he'd get one around the
trade deadline. And he certainly hasn't gotten one I think
probably since the end of the season. So tell me
where my opinion should change. It shouldn't. And I think

(41:47):
most astro fans that are listening understand the exact situation too.
They know, they just don't want to believe it, and
they're probably gonna already be up after arbitration, and they
pay guys like Frommer's gonna make a lot of money
in arbitration Kyle Tucker as well. They're basically going to
be up against the tax threshold. Again, the only value

(42:09):
you get in return on this is you're probably gonna
let JV go, and if JV was to come back,
you would be on a much smaller, much shorter term
deal if you go. So it's a twenty percent tax
on all overages. The first year. If you do it
another year, it's a thirty percent tax. If you do
it for three straight years, it's a fifty percent tax.

(42:30):
And here's the reality of it too, and I don't
and we'll get to the top of the r on
this Astro attendance went down this year. Yeah, so it's
your fault astros. Now, No, I'm just saying that. I'm kidding.
You can't guarantee three milli and base and paint your
payroll off of that. And also, by the way, don't
forget about this too. The astros do not get any

(42:51):
more money from television like they used to because at
and T whatever that group was called disintegrated. Yes, but
we're here at Sports Talk seven ainety. We're trying to
get their ratings up. Yes, we are to take care
of people like yourself, yes, and others. Well, I don't
know if that's helping us, but that MAKA the eighteen

(43:11):
three to six, three to six, seven one three two
two five seven ninety If you have a gut feeling
on anything sports related or any life related, make some
predictions for us right now seven one three two one
two five, seven ninety I'm going to predict it for
you that if you get an auto loan FRO through
the Shell Federal Credit Union, you're gonna be very pleased

(43:31):
with the situation. Cash back two hundred and fifty dollars
skip A pays two of them, deferred payments for ninety days,
all a possibility when you sign up with the Shell
Federal Credit Union. Many years ago, I financed my daughter's
vehicle through Shell Federal Credit Union. It was the best decision.
I got a good interest rate, I got quality customer service,
and I got that two hundred and fifty dollars in

(43:52):
cash back, all from the Shell Federal Credit Union. Start
the process right now online by going to shell FCU
dot org. That Shell f you dot org do not
rely exclusively on dealerships for credit. Go to the Shell
Federal Credit Union at shell FCU dot org.

Speaker 1 (44:10):
Lunchtimers, this is the Matt Thomas Show.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
Listen up, boy, So appealing, wasn't that Thomas?

Speaker 3 (44:20):
Yo?

Speaker 2 (44:20):
They got a gun dealer.

Speaker 1 (44:22):
This is their gut feeling on the Matt Thomas Show.

Speaker 2 (44:26):
Seven one three two one two five seven ninety seven
one three two one two five seven ninety before we
get to this week's cut feelings ross you and Connor?
How'd you do last Tuesday?

Speaker 3 (44:36):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (44:36):
Connor, you may have been sick? Were you sick? He
was out? So it's actually Trey Walker was in Okay, well,
all right, let's Trey is not here, but I'll give
you his He had the Rockets making the play in
I'm okay with that as a prediction. Yeap. And he
also had the Saints still winning the NFC South And
then I think Derek Carr had died in Spencer Rattler's start.
We we found out later that week that Derek Carr

(44:57):
was going to be out in in it's our Spencer
Rattler was going to be starting for a couple of weeks,
so not looking so good for that. I had the
Texas long Horns and the fourteen and a half versus Oklahoma.
I said the Sooners would cover, and I was wrong.
I'm very happy to I think I had this. I
think I had the long Horns and the under so
it was a win win from Sports Thomas Sports Enterprises genius.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
Matt.

Speaker 2 (45:20):
I also had the Texans winning the AFC South by
at least two games. That was before last week's results.
I'm still feeling pretty good about that. Locked that one in,
and I said, the best off Sea. I mean to
see the best offensive season of his NBA career this
year for Jalen Green. I'm all for that too. Doesn't

(45:43):
doesn't part of making the play in at least somebody
and Green have to be better and then they're going
to make the play and I mean to make the playoffs.
So they're gonna have to be like star Love. Yeah,
I'm okay with that. I'm here for it. We'll see
because while others bonus in some ways, others bonus in
other ways. So you know what is what it is?
Oh my god, you're so weird. I know at least

(46:05):
you recognize it, all right.

Speaker 7 (46:06):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (46:06):
And then I wrote nothing for you. You want yours
from like two weeks ago. You had the as it says,
Astros wins and I think they did lose whatever game
that was. Yes, you had U of H covering the
thirteen and a half versus Iowa State. The score a point,
But how about the TCU game this is Iowa State?
Oh okay, fair enough. You said Jordan gets a live

(46:27):
swing before the playoffs, No, he knows not. And Jacksonville
covers the six and a half versus the Texans. They did. Yeah,
Texans won by four. Okay, uh are you ready to
make some predictions on the Packers game?

Speaker 1 (46:41):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (46:42):
Oh, the Texans in the pack man, I think that's
going to be a really good game. What's the line?
Three three green Bay minus three. I think it's actually
down to two and a half now. I mean, part
of me says, every time you Diaxon's covered, Texans win,
they beat Green Bay. Joe mixing his back, They're gonna

(47:04):
be fine as pass catchers. The defense is playing lights out.
Sorry Mario Edwards, we're gonna miss you. But Denico Autry's back.
Texans win outright. Taking the money line is my lock
of a week in Green Bay. I got some big
information calling a recorded line. Big information. Not even the
team isn't know the information that we giving him time

(47:28):
for a statement game. Let's go. I ain't skeered. They're
owing with They're one and one against the NFC North.
This year NFC North, all the teams have at least
four wins. I think, Yeah, they're filthy good.

Speaker 8 (47:39):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (47:40):
It would feel like this week would be a letdown
week because of the injuries, the suspensions, and the caliber
competition goes up tenfold from New England to Green Bay.
What do you want me to say? I want you
to make a decison. You don't have you know, it's
gut fields. I just don't want Okay, what's your guts say?

(48:02):
That's my my Just listens, learn of my got Green
Bay wins by six. Hmmm. Yeah, but I had no
apprehension about the Texans destroying the Patriots. I had no
apprehension about, Oh, you getting throttled by Texas. Oh, speaking
of which, we can gut feeling. Texas got another big

(48:22):
game this week. Oh this is true the games at
Austin correct. But Georgia wins everywhere, so that's not got
a question. Wins by six, line three and a half.
Which Quinn ewrers is going to show up the one
we saw last Saturday or the one earlier in the year.
Your guess is just as good as mine. Big game
Quinn is a thing. I think for the most part,

(48:45):
he plays not leveled to the competition. Now, Olklahoma's defense
is good, but watching the game on Saturday, at least
parts of it, he was just missing everything. Yeah, there
was there were throws that normally Quinny Ewers would have
been able to make. It wasn't because Oklahoma had this
intensive pressure in the secondary. By the way, if you
haven't gut feeling about anything, seven one three two one
two five seven ninety seven one three two one two

(49:07):
five seven nine zero, I'm going to say Longhorns by
six and what's up? Yeah, I'm with you. I like Texas.
Now I'll go to the under on the line as well.
What is it? I think it's fifty it's like really high,
it's like fifty six or something. I will take Texas
giving the points and the under, just like I had
last week. I feel more confident in the under because
if Texas is gonna lose, it's because they can't score

(49:29):
points because quin you were, is not playing well and
that ends to me. And under fifty six and a
half is pretty high for the caliber of these defenses.
Would you see a thirty one to twenty six game
you could absolutely still leany under? Well yeah, okay, so
that's my gut feeling. I saw Green Bay winning by six.
I like Texas to win. I like the Cougars winning

(49:51):
in Kansas this week. Okay, Kansas is terrible. They have
no home field. I'm only going on the trip, frankly,
to to watch the Cougars win in person and just
se Arrowhead for the first I've never been there before.
You know, they call it one of the loudest stadiums
in the country. Man, I'm sure you'll just can't just
get a full taste of that on it. I don't
think so sure. I will be taking pictures of Kevrowhead.
You in thirty three hundred, your closest friends. I mean,

(50:13):
do we even know what they draw? I have to
go look, I go look all right, Connor, what you
got this week? By the way, congratulations to your Missouri
Tigers knocking.

Speaker 9 (50:20):
Off you mass Hey, it win's a win, I'll I'll say,
Miszoo beats Auburn this week. Yeah, but everybody but even
Oklahoma beat Auburn. That's a big Dan. Well yeah, well
we have we gotta beat Auburn and then we could
play Alabama for their homecoming GAMEO yikes.

Speaker 2 (50:36):
Oh man, they scheduled you guys for for homecoming. Disrespect. Well,
we're gonna upset them. Then there we go.

Speaker 9 (50:43):
Tank Dell and Joe Mixon touchdown in the Texas versus Packers.
Texans only win by one score and then I'll say
Longhorns beat Georgia by ten o.

Speaker 2 (50:55):
Okay, love it. Ticket. It's like at least nine hundred
dollars to get in to get away that place.

Speaker 3 (51:04):

How about the hotels in Austin this weekend? Yeah, the
the Lakina in Round Rock is three hundred a night.

not forty seven g That's not bad for a seventy

taj mahal on Homan. I'm sorry your stadium RinkyDink was
was unfair and rude. Yeah, but where used to that from?
Coming from you? Twenty one thousand for the UNLV game.
Did a bunch of TCU fans come up from Fort Worth?
I mean fort Worth's pretty boring? Linden Wood? What is

(51:50):
lynden Wood? Kansas played?

Speaker 3 (51:52):
Was that?

Speaker 2 (51:53):
But that they were? They played somewhere else? Oh, Children's
Mercy Park? What is that? I have no clue that
sounds made up. I totally disagree with you, all right, Uh,
any other gut feelings you want to go to? Oh,
Yankees Dodgers in the World Series. I don't care what

(52:15):
the Mets did yesterday. Yank Dodgers are a better team.
Yankees Dodgers World Series. Yeah, okay, you're probably right, but
I don't want to. But I had to, by the way,
being in New York on my layover unexpected layover everything,
the whole newscast was sports stories. You had the Giants

(52:37):
playing that against Cincinnati. You have the Jets playing last
line against Buffalo. You have the Yankees and America League
Championship Series. You have the Matts in the National League
Championship Series, the Liberty or in the w NBA Finals,
and Dante DiVincenzo got a fight with Jalen Brunson's dad.
I think of the knickt Minnesota game in the night.

(52:58):
Six things going on in New York City. Wow, nothing
to do with any hockey. But that's neither here nor there.
Isn't that crazy. That's how mad crazy New York is.

It's the new Chad Pennington and Keishawn Johnson greatest, greatest
collection since a weep u Bank was coaching the Jets

don't know. It's such a lowbrow, horrific bad impersonation.

up tomorrow. But there are people like they're rigging it
for the Yankees and the Dodgers. They had Rangers Diamondbacks

(57:27):
of that scarf tomorrow. I will. What's going on? All right?
We have another NFL trade which we will save for
the NFL. Thank god, God, you're you're stealing all of
my thund at the bottom of the hour, so we
got that. It's another big one. Yes, and uh it
involves a skill position player. That's all we'll say. Okay, Ross,
what is today's edition. I believe or not, it's a

(57:48):
DeVante Adams and this new player. Okay, I forgot we
were doing it. Forget We've been doing it for like
fifteen years. How do you forget you didn't do to
tell the truth yesterday because you do mailed in the show.
That's not true. We didn't have time. We're just so busy, really,
as busy as we are today, busier really. All right,
I didn't know that. Okay, God, it's fine. What else

(58:09):
is happening? Oh? Three different astros have been nominated for
Gold Globe Awards. Yes, we didn't even talk about that,
including America's center fielder, one of the greatest astros of
all time. Yes, retire number six already. Jake Myers, you

(58:31):
know you have tried to get the fan club up
in numbers. The fan club, it fluctuates. It didn't fluctuate.
It reached a crescendo in May and has seen numbers.
You were like a penny stock that really thrived for
a while. We were like doze coin. Yeah, it went
all the way up and then it just went down.
You're like a free fall on the cliffhangers on the prices, right,

(58:51):
the dude's already down down the mountain. We flew too
close to the sun. They had to replace a make
sure to they, Eh, you can upgrade, because here's the
thing you were hoping for. I was hoping, the fan
club was hoping for a little more from the bat.
We really just want him to be league average because
if you're gonna use your non primarily DH chess slash,

(59:16):
Mauricio played left and center field, just myers, you're just
getting zero pop from the bottom thirty order. Hey, thirteen
home runs isn't zero pop, Matt, what's the ops don't
look it up. It's below seven hundred, right, OPS plus
of eighty five and one hundred's average. Now see his

(59:36):
first season when we founded the club, ops plus a
one to seven. He was taking better abs, he seemed
more patient. Yeah, I just I don't know what's going on.
He was just a disaster the last half of the
season to be where he was. To end up with
a worse OPS plus than he had last year when
he was a disaster to sort of the heights that

(59:57):
he did and then still fall below last year's average,
that tells you how bad he was the last couple
of months. I mean, he was just abysmal June. First
you had like you were looking to get a convention center.
Now you're looking for a meeting space at a ballad
a bin and we can't even do it. We'll get
a phone booth. I think we'll be okay. Uh yeah,
that's I don't know how he just fell so much offensively,

(01:00:20):
because the glove is always going to be there no
matter how. We got a little bit better as the
season progressed, but it's still below averaging great, but he
covers a ton of ground. He's a Gold Glove finalist,
and you know what he'll be able to tell his
grandchildren about that. I don't think he's gonna win var show.
And uh who is the is it? Duran? Well, they're
both better at a doubt. The tiebreaker is what you
do with your bat. It's we shouldn't be any part

(01:00:42):
of the reason why you went in a war. Well,
those guys are better than him in center anyways. But
Jake Myers rightfully so recognized as one of the best
in the game at center field, and he should ye as,
he should be carries more range probably in bats and baseball.
Let's go to Bill in full show on The Matt
Thomas Show with Ross at one twenty five. Bill, good afternoon, Well,
good afternoon to you.

Speaker 1 (01:01:00):
How are you well?

Speaker 2 (01:01:01):
Thank you? What's on your mind?

Speaker 3 (01:01:02):
Hey?

Speaker 7 (01:01:02):
I just I'm one of those sports calls that doesn't
really recalled, doesn't really take much attention to anything until
I get in the car and listen to you guys,
and I love you both.

Speaker 10 (01:01:13):
I think it's good.

Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
I really appreciate that. Thank you very much, my pleasure.

Speaker 10 (01:01:20):
And my call is concerning Dallas versus Alliance. I'm a
Lions fan, but and probably only ones in Houston. I
don't know, but I was wondering if you guy noticed
during that game that the Cowboys kind of looked like
they were going all out.

Speaker 2 (01:01:44):
They were quitting, Yeah, kind of.

Speaker 10 (01:01:47):
But it started at the beginning of the game.

Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
I didn't think the Lions are just a better football team. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:01:55):
I saw him running a couple of routes and Dak
was trying to find him, but it really looked like
he didn't finish his route. They he kept looking back
at Deck with his arms up in the air, and
what are you doing?

Speaker 10 (01:02:06):
And they were like, not on the same page.

Speaker 2 (01:02:09):
Yeah, that's possible. I mean, I had the game on.
I'm not going to tell you that I was like
paying attention to every snap or breaking down the all
twenty two or anything like that. But yeah, I would
say in general, the these professionals don't put in those
lacklusser efforts because if they do, that's just gonna end up.
They're going to end up off the field contracts. Yeah, exactly,

(01:02:29):
although so maybe he does you're doing okay.

Speaker 10 (01:02:32):
Well that's kind of what I got in my mind too.
You got a lot of money, and it just didn't
look like you did last year or the year before
to me. So not that I watch a lot, I
don't watch a lot too anyways. I'm one of those
colors that you never get because I'm not too much
into sports.

Speaker 2 (01:02:46):
And I just really enjoyed it, all right, turning on
and getting you guys and thank you.

Speaker 10 (01:02:50):
Be Let you know, there's other people listening besides the
dieard fan.

Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
All right, Well, you know what, we try to welcome everybody,
whether you're a die hard or or just a turn
in for a little while during the courses. He's we're
here twelve months a year. Yeah, So yeah, thank you, Bill. Yeah,
and I and we also acknowledge that in frankly, ninety
percent of the audience UH, we've either never met or
never heard from. Yes, we appreciate every one of you.

(01:03:15):
I went to UH a follow up with a doctor
yesterday and one of the guys in the practice is like,
I listen to you guys every day twelve to one.
I drive during that hour. And I loved to listening
to Joe Spotta when he was on Tuesdays, and he
said Tuesdays in twelve thirty. I'm like, damn, you are
a good listener. So yeah, it's great. It's great that
we get to meet people that we never get to
ever hear from. We love the callers too. Again, we
are we are, maybe to a detriment, the most caller

(01:03:37):
friendly show in the marketplace because we'd like to talk
to the people. Yes again, I've heard Ross all my life.
I don't need it. I don't need it enough. His
acumen is plenty enough for me. Doubt. Yeah, I don't
know to hear from other people. Seven one three two

Speaker 1 (01:05:10):
Welcome, Good afternoon, the best sports luncheon h Town.

Speaker 6 (01:05:14):
Matt's really smart, he works hard, he has a good
grasp of players.

Speaker 2 (01:05:18):
He's been around the game. Would you love him? We
love him so excited for the opportunity that Matt has
in front of him.

Speaker 1 (01:05:24):
For sure.

Speaker 2 (01:05:25):
This is the Matt Thomas Show. There is not another
radio show in America that gives you Ross's nfl rewind
with the fifth of Beethoven. It's just the perfect song.
So got any further Ado Ross Villareal spent literally minutes
putting this segment together. Hours Matthew hours deep dives into

(01:05:47):
game after game and the future schedule, all twenty two,
then PF fIF grades, EPA, DV away, all of it. Okay,
we don't believe you, but go on. Let's go ahead
and start with a trade that was made. And I'm
not talking about DeVante Adams. Brown's on the seven. Deshaun
play fake Deshaun to throw a Mari Cooker touchdown this

(01:06:11):
second of the game, he beat Deontay Banks on the
slant and the crown during the end tone. You know
who the voice that is, by the way, No, I
don't a voice of the Browns. That is Andrew Ciciliano,
who used to do the NFL red Zone when it
was on direct TV. Good for him, Well he was
calling Amari Cooper touchdowns, and well I did have to

(01:06:31):
go back at the archives to actually find one that
was from a few weeks ago. But Mary Cooper no
longer a Cleveland Brown traded to the Buffalo Bills. Number
one ride receiver Khalil Shakir no more Keon Coleman. Not good,
despite what FSU fans will tell you. Buffalo Bills getting
Amari Cooper and a sixth rounder, Cleveland getting a third

(01:06:53):
rounder in next year's draft and a seventh rounder in
the draft after that should be a good news for
Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills and Amari Cooper. How
good is his life? He is out of Cleveland, that
embarrassing franchise with a terrible quarterback, terrible coaches, terrible team.
He goes from easily the worst quarterback in the NFL

(01:07:15):
to a top three, top four, certainly top five ish
guy depends on who you ask, although Josh Allen that
extremely great on the field the last couple of weeks.
It was clunky last night. All right, let's keep it
moving here. Some more changes happening. This one in a Pittsburgh.

Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
Fields under center Miller in motion play action pass now
Fields wants to run, has a couple of blockers in front.

Speaker 2 (01:07:41):
He's into the end zone.

Speaker 11 (01:07:44):
For a seven yard touchdown run for Justin Fields.

Speaker 2 (01:07:48):
So Justin Field scores two rushing touchdowns. You beat the
Raiders by almost twenty in their building, although it was
kind of like it was your building. You got the
Steelers at four and two, when your reward is Russell
Wilson and getting the first team reps with this Steelers
this week, Matt Right. Decision by the Pittsburgh Steelers to
go with Russ over Justin Fields, so they're flat out

(01:08:10):
going with him, or they're gonna give the first team
the first team reps in practice, it sounds like that
Russell Wilson is going to start well. Beating the Raiders
was no big accomplishment last week, but the Sun and
Night game before that, it was looked like Pittsburgh was
on borrowed time when when it came to the quarterback situation.

(01:08:31):
So some Steelers fans not happy. Are Steeler fans ever happy?
That's true. Tomlin's like one of the great coaches in
NFL history, and they complain about him every w'ch a
cranky bunch. I gotta be honest with you. Here's one
on Twitter benching Justin Fields for Russell Wilson is the
worst personnel decision since a two and fourteen traded for
a thirty one year old wide receiver earlier this morning.

(01:08:52):
I would say this, I think the best days of
Russell Wilson are are long gone. But anybody that would
just fall on a sword for Dustin Field and his
rightic NFL career as nuts a man, and the Steelers
are playing better. But I think that's fool's goal a
little bit sart like I kind of feel as fools
go with Sam Darnold the Minnesota I just do. So
I'm not totally shocked.

Speaker 3 (01:09:11):
Hm.

Speaker 2 (01:09:12):
Okay, well he is no longer the QB, and of
course we know what happened this weekend in Dallas with
the Detroit Lions. Okay, so I I hit the right
button first.

Speaker 11 (01:09:23):
And goal from the four golf out of the gun
takes the snap Jared back looking lofting right side, just
touchdown Detroit Lions.

Speaker 2 (01:09:32):
What was that?

Speaker 12 (01:09:34):
I'm in raw?

Speaker 11 (01:09:35):
Save Brown turned around, that ball was on him and
he just said these two things that were work a
suction cups?

Speaker 2 (01:09:42):
What was that? That was the color man stepping on
the ball again, This is embarrassing. Shut up color analysts.
I love this again.

Speaker 11 (01:09:51):
First and goal from the four golf out of the
gun takes the snap Jared back looking lofting right side.

Speaker 2 (01:09:58):
Just touch. Nobody says, how horri if I was a
play by play guy, like shit, your bum mess up
analyst feels like football guys do that a lot more.
I was listening to Scott Zolak, who does the Patriots
color analysis on the Patriots game steps over his plup
by play guy too, you had a friend of the
show on on uh Bob Bob Soshi. Hey, color guys, analyst,

(01:10:24):
leave the play by play for the play by play
back away. I'm talking to you. Wex sort to if
you get all some of my calls. I'm just kidding.
He doesn't step on. Let's see it's Dan Miller on
play by play Lomas Brown, former Lions offensive tackle, on
color commentary. Well, Lomas, you're a big man. Shut your

(01:10:45):
boss up. Debt to his face and I'll never see it.
So anyways, I say I play all that to play
to say this. Uh NFC favorites with or without Aiden Hutchison.
The Lions big game this week coming up against the
Minnesota Vikings. The game is the Minnie Apples, correct, I
think so, I still like Detroit. They're gonna have to

(01:11:08):
outscore people. Uh, yeah, I don't. I don't know unless
Jared Goff has a horrific big interception game. He's got ross,
He's got way too many targets. You mentioned two running backs,
pluth of receivers, great pass catching tight end, offensive line
protects the quarterback. Yeah, they're really good. This tells you
what Vegas thinks about the best offense in football taking

(01:11:28):
on the best defense in football. Total is still really
high at forty nine and a half because Minnesota can
score points too. And yeah, even though they're going up
against in my mind the number one defense in football,
Minnesota also favored in that game by two and a half.
That's simply being home field. I would think so anything else, Yeah,
let's do uh, we had time for one more real?

(01:11:49):
How about this guy? Here's a good staff they feel
looking looking, looking flushed, those of all toward it's caught
cut cut.

Speaker 4 (01:11:56):
Was it a cuckball? It's Kate Auton.

Speaker 2 (01:11:58):
It's a touchdown Tampa by Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers
putting up fifty one points on the New Orleans Saints.
Baker Mayfield did turn the ball over three times? Did
go to bring this up on the show yesterday? I
don't think he did. But overall in the season, fifteen touchdowns,

(01:12:19):
five interceptions. But the Buccaneers continuing to perform well after
getting that big deal last year. So we're getting back
to back years of good make Baker Mayfield. Are we
calling him a top ten quarterback? If we're doing that
where you got to bump somebody out of the top ten?
So who you bumping out? I don't know. We'd have
to go through the list. Not CJ. Shroud, not Josh Allen, Nope,

(01:12:41):
not Joe Burrow, not Pat Mahome, not Lamar Jackson. You
knocked at Prescott off the top ten and then replace
him with it? I think it's a fairwea debatable that's good.
Jayden Daniels top ten already you hurt me on to
tell the truth, we can go. I know you love
Jayden Daniels and big hate CJ. I don't hate second,
that's embellishment part I'm a realist. On you hate the Texans.

(01:13:02):
You got them losing again, well, but I also have
them winning a bunch too. So by the way, speaking
of the Texans, real quick here, Rossey, do you know
what the Las Vegas odds were of the Texans to
go to go to the Super Bowl or win? I
don't know which one it is. Let me take a look.
Preseason to win the Super Bowl was like twelve or
fifteen to one. Okay, so this is gonna be to

(01:13:24):
go to the super Bowl. What do you think the
odds were in October the eighth for the Texans to
go to the super Bowl? Nine to one, eleven to one. Okay.
As of today, what are the odds for the Texans
that go to the super Bowl? Five to one? Twelve
to one. They lost a little bit. They lost they
were gonna go five and one, and their odds to
get worse. I'll take twelve to one on that. The

(01:13:45):
Chiefs for four seventy five were four and a half
to one to go. I'm going to the book this weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:13:51):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:13:52):
The Ravens went from seven and a half to seven.
The Bills went from eleven to one down to ten
to one. The Texans go from eleven to one up
to twelve and one. I need to go, like Charles, Well,
I think what they wanted they want to see them
play some really good competition. The Bills aren't good. I'm
not disagreeing with you. They beat the Bills. Well, they
played the Vikings. The Vikings are good. They played some

(01:14:13):
good they played them. They played them. Well, here's the thing,
you still got to a Tennessee. Those are presuming two victories. Yeah,
probably you're gonna be home for Indianapolis. You ship know, yeah,
because you open the year at Indianapolis. And who am
I forgetting There's get the Jaguars. Jaguars on the road,
which is they still win there, So I'm not really
they probably win three out of four of those. So
you're looking at aid and one there, eight and two,

(01:14:34):
and then you've got and then the difficult part. You
still have Green Bay. You've got the Jets, who now
is a lot more sexier than it was, say, twenty
four hours ago. And that's on the road. Baltimore, Kansas City. Okay,
in Kansas City. I mean, you know what, I'm gonna

(01:14:55):
make a statement. The chefs have to lose a game there.
I'm gonna make a statement. They split Baltimore and Kansas City.
They one of those games. Really, what's up? Okay? I
got you batter Red Ross staying true to for him.
You are not getting a ring by the organization. I
don't care. You might get a cook room for the squad.
You might get a six per fun. Come come over here, Matt,
Come over ours. I'm not good. Rooting for NFL football
again is fun. I actually enjoy it more than I don't. No,

(01:15:17):
you don't if you do, but you don't, I really do.
I'm really I'm from the bandwagon. We'll take you with
open ours. You know what, they go to super Bowl,
then I'll do it. Okay, but I'll write that down. Yeah,
that's it. I will be a deep steal.

Speaker 3 (01:15:29):
Matt.

Speaker 2 (01:15:30):
I thought you were a liberty white man, is what
they were calling you. They were calling me a liberty
white ass, mat, which is not fair. I was trying
to be nice I know you were. And that's Ross's
NFL rewind for this Tuesday. We do it every Tuesday
at one thirty here on Sports Talk seven on all Right,
M Rockets preseason game number three tonight. Wow, we'll get

(01:15:50):
a little bit of that coming up. We will just
a little a little taste. Because you've watched both games, now,
have you not? I wasn't able to watch the second one,
I mean not able to What do you do? My
DVR recorded the NBA TV broadcast which was blacked out,
so my DV I didn't get the game. Why would
you want to record the Space City version? I have
it recorded to record every Rockets game. But it goes

(01:16:11):
through the guide and NBA TV pops up first it's
channel six oh three and then and then Space City
is six thirty nine, So it defaults when it's been
there on NBA TV, which hasn't been a problem the
last couple of years. They've got a bunch this year. Yeah,
I know, I'm gonna have to fix that. You have
to train. I'm about to talk to my friends over
at Exfinity. They spend money, they do. Okay, I'm gonna

(01:16:34):
say it's only live once. Well, that's certain baseball. I
don't know they've done.

Speaker 3 (01:16:38):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:16:39):
I was about to back to com mom cast whatever.

Speaker 4 (01:17:41):
Rockets coming around feet. Hey everybody, this is Craig Akerman
from the Rockets broadcast team thankfully, and finally I am
socially distancing myself from Matt Thomas.

Speaker 2 (01:17:50):
Wait, bye bye to your cash cow because it's leaving
the past.

Speaker 4 (01:17:53):
Sure, now back to your show.

Speaker 2 (01:18:04):
Ross is working side deals in here. What let me
tell you something about Ross? You? You? He is so
easy to criticize me on you talking on the deals
that I get away with and benefits. You are the
absolute worst, am I I was here yesterday. I would
have been here too, not for the uh air traffic

(01:18:26):
control at Buwork International, though. I think you can name
the city Newark. So let me ask you this feels
and miss it. I missed my connecting flight because of
heavy It wasn't because of weather in the city I
was in, or in Newark. It was because of lack
of air traffic controllers were slowing down traffic, so they

(01:18:46):
were slowing inbound traffic in which made me three hours
later for my flight. And I missed the flight from
Houston to Houston. So I had to go yesterday and
miss the show. And so again, can I write a
complaint Litterary United? I think they're gonna care. I feel
like you need to complain to somebody. I mean imagine
a hotel in Newark on short notice. Wasn't cheap, I

(01:19:07):
didn't say anywhere fancy, okay, uh, and it wasn't cheap.
But the trip was so much fun that I did
in particularly care as my daughter at a great time
and great recruiting missus. But that's another here, no right there,
that's great. All right, I'm gonna send it note and
I'll give you an update. Complain to somebody. One more thing.
We will gets the grease. One more thing. I sat in
the middle seat yesterday, okay, and I hate that, and

(01:19:28):
nobody ever goes mad. Right, it's I would rather sit
in the middle than in the window because I get
slightly claustrophobic if I feel like if there's an isle
person next men, it's only one person to get around
if I want to go to the bathroom. Not too
I don't know what I mean. You have to tuck
your knee in the whole time because it's not comfortable. Yes,
I mean, I'll say this, and I'm talking about the ale. Yeah,
I'm okay with that. Let me ask you this, and

(01:19:49):
I've discussed this before really quickly. I like to see
outside and I don't know why everybody does. But you could
be eighty years old and you're like, look out the window.
It's just it's just natural. But the person next to
me had the window shaped down the entire flight.

Speaker 3 (01:20:04):
M M.

Speaker 2 (01:20:06):
And the rule is we've discussed it before. If you
sit in the window, you control the window, right absolutely, Okay.
I know I will open it during usually takeoff and landing,
depending on the flight or what time of day it is. Daytime, Yeah, daytime,
I don't want to open it. And also though you
can get a lot of heat off of it if
it's hot. Well, the issue I wanted is I want
to see if there was clouds, because usually if you
clouds give you a sign of turbulence are coming. I

(01:20:27):
don't I don't mind. Turbulence is not great, but I
at least if I know it's coming, I'm a little
more prepared for it's compared to just sitting there and
not knowing that there's a massive cloud we're about to
go into. Okay, So I just dove, we just lose
the right to control the window when we don't sit
in a window seat. And if you're just gonna tell
me that's the way it is, then I have to
live with it, but I don't like it. I've been

(01:20:48):
asked before by people to open the word. I've never
you like a child. Yeah, I've never asked, and I
don't think I'm ever going to because I think we've
already had this conversation before. Okay, but I just was
just saying, you know, I'll give up the I will,
I'll live with the wind, I'll live with middle. But
I'd rather have both. I'd rather have the opportunity to
raise the window seat if window, if I wanted to,

(01:21:08):
but window windows the goat mm hm two close again.
It makes me too cluster f you could get a
little extra room over there, chuck your elbow to the side,
lean over there. And oh, by the way, I will
say this if I'm a mental seat and somebody brought
this up on Twitter yesterday, I get both of the armrest. Sorry,
that's just the rule. Guy in the aisle, no, you

(01:21:28):
split it. No, he wouldn't put in front of it
or the back. He was he took up three three
fourths of it. You gotta claim that space. I'm gonna
have to from now on. I was trying to be tough.
It's tough. They just pack everybody in starting and you
get no room anywhere anymore, and they make you pay
extra for it. Yeah, and then they fly as many
flights as possible, so you end up with delays and

(01:21:48):
air traffic control of problems. I mean again, if there's
weather issues, you I don't expect the airline to pay
for it or anybody to pay for it, because mother
Nature's modernature nature. But you put you put the schedule
out Newark Airport knew the schedule was coming in. If
you knew there was going to be this issue, then
cancel the damn flat day ago. I mean, don't don't
hang me out to dry it at set Airports. Rough Sorry,

(01:22:14):
Brian and Laredo one fifty four on the Matt Thomas
Show with Ross Brian, how the hell are you?

Speaker 12 (01:23:38):
Okay, all right, man, I'll get back at that.

Speaker 2 (01:23:44):
I appreciate that. Yeah, if that stands again, I gotta
stands a game. I mean, the the Round Rock hotels
are like three hundred bucks. It's you know what I'm
gonna look up. I'm gonna see if I can use
my marriyout points to see if I don't know that
I'm going I mean, let's just use an example. The
average room in Austin on a weekend for a points

(01:24:04):
day would be probably forty thousand points a night. Okay,
I'm just gonna use it as a frame of reference. Okay,
let's go to put in Austin, Texas right now, and
we are going to get there. When are we gonna
get there? We're gonna get there Friday, right Friday, and
we're gonnaleave on Sunday, on Sunday. Two nights, okay, two nights.
I'm going to put in use points. Let's take a

(01:24:24):
look how many points it would take. If you want
to stay at the Element Austin downtown, you can stay
there for seven ninety three a night, or it can
use one hundred and forty thousand, seven ninety three a night,
or one hundred and forty thousand points. If you want
to stay at the al Off Austin downtown, nine hundred
and sixteen dollars for the night nine hundred and what

(01:24:46):
now nine sixteen a night. If you want to stay
at the JW Marriott Austin, JW. Let's not be ridiclus
one thousand, sixteen dollars a night or one hundred and
fifty two thousand points. Wow. The w Austin if you
you want to spend the night, it's nineteen hundred and
forty nine dollars a night. Okay. If you want to
stay at the Austin Marriotte downtown, it's nine to forty
five a night or one hundred and fifty two thousand points.

(01:25:10):
And if you want to say, it's something called the
Austin Proper Hotel, a member of Design Hotels three thousand,
nine hundred and seventy six dollars a night. Oh, I
think prices are going down. This is down to five
hundred fairfield In. You know what a fairfield In is.
That's the lower end. It's eight twenty nine a night.
Ac Hotel Austin one thousand and five. The Moxie and
Austin is one thousand and one sixty six. Now here's

(01:25:33):
when it's not terrible. Residents in Austin University area is
seventy eight thousand points. That's not terrible. They're seeing worse.
Austin Mariot South by the Airport's a twenty a night
Courtyard by the Airport seven twenty five a night. Yeah,
you're gonna spend a lot of money. It is what
it is. But you're not You're not for sure you're going?

(01:25:54):
Are you no thinking about it? I really want to go, honestly,
I tell you, I told you this today. I'd rather
go to see Georgia Texas. The oh you Texas. I
really want because at least you wants to competitives can
make you get me on the edge of your seat.
You were people were napping in the third quarter that
I wouldn't have been napping. I would have been screaming.
I would have I would have loved every second of

(01:26:15):
thirty four. Thank god that game is on with because
every other minute on Twitter, it's four nineteen. Stuff baby,
the lame ass University of Texas tweet it's eleven fifteen,
and you know you still suck. I mean, seriously, get
some better materials. Do it once a year? Baby? Good?
Thank god, thank god it's only once a year. Well,

(01:26:36):
I'm sorry, Matt, big time football, we do take time football.
Lousy ass tweets come up with better material ROSSI, what
are you talking about? It's eleven fourteen. You know, I
put us and it's time for breakfast. That's what you
should put. Well, man, that's hilarious. This is good as real.
It's better know you suck man. Well, we've seen your
crappy tweets. Let me tell you something. I'm a Twitter phenomenon.

(01:26:58):
One fifty eight fine hour of the show.

Speaker 3 (01:27:00):
Ross.

Speaker 2 (01:27:00):
What is today's edition? To believe it or not, I
don't know half Davante Adams, half of Mark. You look
at the tickets. Now, let me tee you've already got
You've already spent a lot of money lately. I don't
I don't think you should be spending No, that's what
I'm saying about. How about a three year at home?
I'm gonna be eating cheese sandwiches for a couple of
months here. Uh, there is an NFL rumor out there

(01:27:22):
that Originally when I heard about it, I was outraged,
and now I'm not nearly as outraged. I'm not happy
about it, but I'm not outraged. I'll explain what that
is to start the final hour of The Matt Thomas Show.
Ross here on Sports Talk seven ninety lunchtimers.

Speaker 1 (01:27:35):
This is the Matt Thomas show.

Speaker 2 (01:27:38):
All right, a couple of big things on the NFL.
DeVante Adams is now a member of the New York Jets.
He got traded there from Las Vegas and New York.
Amari Cooper is now a member of the Don't tell me,
I just drew a blank. He's going from Cleveland to
we just go ahead and say it, Buffalo Buffalo. That's right, okay,

(01:28:01):
And they're both very happy for different reasons. Von Dikets
can hang out with Aaron Rodgers and Cleveland goes from
the complete dumpster far that is a Browns football to
the Buffalo Bills. Yeah, he's going from the worst quarterback
in the NFL to one of the top five, by
the way, real quick. On the NFL. I picked Sincinnty

(01:28:24):
to win the AFC this year just because I was
trying to be different. I mean, how's that going. It's
not great, one games back to back, but they've won
some games. They know, by the way, their schedule is
super soft. The writ for the next handful of weeks, well,
not back to back, two of the last three, but
it also the teams they beat were the Panthers and
the Giants. Okay, so does that count? And they're at
Cleveland this week? Oh, okay, another win. So they're two

(01:28:47):
and four now right, Yes they'll go they'll go to
three and four. They have at their home for the Eagles,
toss up three and five home for the Raiders. Four
and five. Yes, they'll be at the Ravens. They've gotten
a big shootout with the Ravens. Almost won that game,
but they fumbled at the end. Yeah, there's still making.

(01:29:10):
They're still making the playoffs. Donald Holmey till Chargers at Chargers.
Defense is looking pretty good. Justin Herbert actually finally had
a good weekend. AFC is really really super competitive. But
I still think Kannasity and Baltimore are one in one A.

(01:29:30):
I wouldn't say Texans are one beat, but they're a
solid two. I would say IB three if you're having
one A and one B Chiefs and Ravens, and then
I can argue that Texans against anyone else their best
team in the AFC right this second. They beat the
Bills head to head. Yep, they're better than the Steelers, YEP,
better than Chargers, yep. Better than the Bills because you

(01:29:52):
beat them. Dolphins don't have a quarterback, although two of
maybe coming back this year, which is I think really stupid.
He should retire and call to day. Be able to
remember his its names is very important. Well, he's consulting
doctors and neurologists, so those neurologist are gona tell him
don't play anymore. Okay. Could you imagine being a neurologist saying, oh,
it's fine, get out there one more time. Why not?
What's what's a fifth commission? I'm not what's the fifth

(01:30:13):
coussion among friends? See Ross, you don't have to be
you don't have to be a doctor. Everybody and their
mother knows that he never should play again. Well, then
why is he gonna play again? Because he's stupid, because
his brain is scrambled. Duh, Okay, it's it's it's like
Marshmallows is third best team in the NFC. I mean AFC,
you're Houston tex not even it's really not even close.

(01:30:35):
They went on the road, they went at home. They'd
be good teams. They be the only super team they
have faced this year. They got their brains beating. But
that's you know it's gonna happen, yes, challenge, Well, yeah,
they also turned the ball over a ton, which you could.
I mean give some credit to the Vikings defense on
that as well. But they also had like eleven penalties
for over one hundred yards in that game. Yeah, yeah,

(01:30:57):
playing up the penalties. Look what happens you win a
double digit game like you did against them the other
the Patriots. Only two straight weeks have not heard holding
her false star and a larmy times. I told you
it was going to be every week. It's still all
about him, not about the team. I will not change
my viewpoint of that. Well, the team's doing well, that's
most important to need him. How's his ankle? Doesn't practice
on Wednesdays? But that shouldn't be an issue. Okay, you

(01:31:18):
did find this past week all right? One thing I
brought up many many moons ago. I didn't think the
tech the NFL would be so stupid enough to have
a Super Bowl overseas. Is that really being discussed? It
is really being discussed now. Now stay with me on

(01:31:40):
this first second. If you have a Super Bowl overseas,
London would be probably the chalk favorite on that, right,
you could They're six hours ahead, so you could do
that at noon their time, and then it would be
about the normal time you have it here, no other direction, Right,
it'd be eleven o'clock their time. You'd have to move

(01:32:02):
the game earlier in the day. Wait, am I stupid? Yes,
you're going the wrong way. Oh you're right, I am
going the wrong time. So you'd have to have what
So if you were to play a super Bowl, Oh,
you're right there? Six hours. Let's say they played the
game super Bowl at midnight. There, No, they wouldn't do that.
Say they played it at eight o'clock London time. Okay,
you'd play at two o'clock. Yeah, what you could do
if you're gonna if you're gonna go overseas, you're gonna

(01:32:22):
do it. That's I guess you could do nine and
then do three. That's just about as far as you
could go, probably nine the latest. So I'm not first
of all, I don't care what time the game is over.
She's why would I care? As long as it's in
a reasonable television window for us, like friends is, if
you put the game on at noon in my in London,

(01:32:43):
it would be at six o'clock in the morning. What
nobody's gonna do that. We'd go on a radio row
in Jelly Old London? No or not? Why not? Guess
what if the textans are there, because all the great
guests would be on between ten and noon, I wouldn't care.
Is Carl Mecklenberg making it over to London? Had two
tall Jones on the show at twelve thirty? I hope
he's in first class. Meanwhile, Treig Bean joins in the
stand Northfleet next, and Gordy and Gordy of course that'sn't

(01:33:07):
even the show staying for Northfleet Show and Gordy of course.
So when I when I first heard of this, I was,
you know what, how selfish is Goodell doing that? How
selfish are the owners? And then I think about the
end of the day, Ross, We're not ever going to We're
not going to Super Bowls. No, we're not paying for care?
Why do we care where it is? As long as

(01:33:29):
this is. My only real concern would be the field conditions,
because sometimes they've gone over the overseas, like that game
that they in Rio. What was it Eagles and uh Packers?
Eagles and Packers in Rio? They both teams were slipping
the entire time. Okay, basically, did you watch any of
the Sunday game this week the I watched, how was

(01:33:51):
the field? I think it was fine. I don't remember
a bunch of slipping. I'm going to tell you right now,
if you if the NFL had the stones to put
the game overseas, you're gonna make sure it's the most
pristine turf if ever been seen. If they have to
literally take every blade in lay it down, well, I
mean you would hope that they could get some good
turf in Rio. Well, if you're spending all that money
to get a game in Brazil, you wouldn't make sure

(01:34:12):
that that their turf is good and then it's terrible.
Let me ask you this, what is the temperature like
and the weather conditions in London in February? You need
something with a roof on it. Which they have roof stadiums, right,
I don't think most of them. I don't think most

(01:34:32):
of them. I think most of them do not have roofs.
Is there a dome stadium? Google?

Speaker 3 (01:34:37):
This?

Speaker 2 (01:34:38):
Is there a dome stadium in Europe? And probably somewhere
in Europe? I know in Tokyo they do. The Tokyo
Dome is also is covered up. But they're not They're
not gonna play the Super Bowl in Tokyo London Stadium.
This says, oh does does Wimbley? Oh, the new Wimbley
does have a roof? Maybe, Well, if that's the case,
it's that's a that's a it's a non starter of then.

(01:35:01):
But my point is the only people Wimbley has a roof, Okay,
So my point is the only people that would be
really dis would be inconvenience would be, honestly, the fan
bases of the two teams that gets in a lot
minted tickets because you're paying high prices for the ticket. Yes,

(01:35:24):
and you're also flying to London on short notice. So
or if you went if the Texas go to the
super Bowl this year, the games in New Orleans, you
get in the car and you drive Botta Boom Bataban.
If the game was in Phoenix or Atlanta or in California,
it wouldn't be great airfare wise. But my guess is
Houston to Phoenix on fourteen days notice probably gonna be

(01:35:47):
five hundred bucks. Not great, but you could do it.
If you were given two weeks in advance to fly
to London, I guess that's gonna be three thousand dollars.
But again, in this particular case, you're worried about a
small section of people. Yeah, but those people matter, Matt, No,
they don't. Because if you're thinking about playing a Super

(01:36:08):
Bowl outside of this country, that little group of people
you're talking about, the two fan bases, they don't care.
Roger Canelle is not calling the chairman of United and
saying schmidad and saying, hey, man, I need you to
hold seventy five seats that your normal low twenty one
day advanced purchase. Oh what's the benefit then, though global globe?
What taking the NFL sport and making a global event

(01:36:32):
because the reality is they're tapped out here in the
United States. There's nothing more than the NFL can do
to grow its brand in the contiguous forty eight. How
are the Europeans doing with football? I know a lot
of them are very resistant. I know I haven't been.
I don't know as ever, they've been overseas the last
three weeks and they're drawing seventy five thousand people, so

(01:36:52):
obviously they like it. That's the only market that hasn't
been tapped financially. Because every other sector of this country
in which we live in today eats and breathes and
le it lives and spends NFL. Despite all of the flags,
last night's game was horrible and by the way, is
not great. Aaron Rodgers got it rough in the passer

(01:37:12):
call on him, not on him, but literally on him
for a lineman falling down on him. Yes, he said
on his TV show today that that was a terrible call,
which I totally believes, Like that wasn't roughed, like I'll
take the fifteen yards, but I wasn't roughed so ross

Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:40:39):
He's like, oh, let me tell you who you got
the last time you did a radio row and is
running off all these names and I'm like, bro, you're
not helping your cause here, Longhorned, legendar Michael Finley. I
remember that one. It was a good one. Yeah. I
remembered interviewing Ricky Sills, Jones and can and kickoff a
radio row after that. Oh really, I wasn't there for

(01:41:03):
that trip. I heard that was entertaining. People were very
upset when the police called. That was really the best
part of it all. Seven one seven one three two
one two five seven dotty seven one three two one
two five seven nine zero. Let's go to Steven, Cyprus

(01:41:27):
at two twenty two. Steve, good afternoon, You're on the
Matt Thomas Show with Ross what's hanging? Hey, guys, how's
it going good?

Speaker 6 (01:41:34):
Hey, didn't we already try a World Football League?

Speaker 3 (01:41:37):
Ones?

Speaker 2 (01:41:37):
That didn't really make it correct.

Speaker 6 (01:41:41):
So if the NFL was to go play over there
and try to get all least other cities across the pond.

Speaker 3 (01:41:46):
To join the NFL when they have changed the NFL's name.

Speaker 2 (01:41:51):
Now we're talking about that Super Bowl and now I'm
talking about having a team over They're talking about the
Super Bowl.

Speaker 6 (01:41:56):
No, I'm talking.

Speaker 9 (01:41:57):
About them trying to get teams over in the like
the Europe, And.

Speaker 2 (01:42:04):
I mean there's a there's a possibility of that happening.
So I understand that could happen, but they would never
change the name of it. No, no, nobody, nobody's sitting
there going literally it's national. I mean if they put
teams on the where they wuld still still be the NFL.
They're not changing the name of their teams their league. Okay,
I just thought, Yeah, that's it, bye, Steve. NFL Europe.

(01:42:27):
Remember that back in the day, the Frankfurt Galaxy, Who's
the Dragons was at Barcelona. I have made predictions before
my life that it don't hit, but I'm very proud
of the fact that I've always told you ever since
the show began, the world would never support a second
football league. Legitly, nobody cares about the XFL. Nobody cared

(01:42:49):
about the nobody cared about the USFL, nobody cared about
NFL Europe. The NFL has such a stranglehold because a
first fall the quality of players. There is nothing like
the quality of players in the NFL. Second of all,
the branding, the marketing, the influence it has on social media,

(01:43:12):
the influence it has on television, the NonStop coverage, there's
just nothing that's in Again, even to the most average eye.
You can watch a game between the Memphis Showboats and
the Pittsburgh Malers of the Exit whatever they're calling it now,
the SFL, and you can say, there's a reason why
these guys can't touch NFL uniforms. They're just not good enough.

(01:43:35):
It's interesting because I mean, Alabama or you know, the
number one team in the land, the Texas Longhorns, would
get crushed by any football team. But we love college football,
even though it's a more crude and not as skilled league.
So how come we can't latch onto normally most of

(01:43:57):
these so we don't like second in the rough next
could beat the Longhorns right there. You don't think so, No,
I would say yes, I would say the university. All
those are all professors. The University's you got twenty two professionals.
But who defines what's professional Professional to me is the NFL.
The other stuff is minor league. I'm gonna take the

(01:44:19):
University of Texas and I'm gonna take I'm gonna take
the University of Georgia and I'm gonna beat your your
Houston Roughnecks. Absolutely wonder you might be right No there, Now,
you can't take Alabama. You can't take Connecut basketball and
meet the Charlote Hornets. I'm not saying that. But in
this particular case, absolutely I can take all Americans and

(01:44:39):
Heisman Trophy winners at the university. Yeah, if it's like
a college football powerhouse Texas, well, if it's a if
it's like an all star team, because here's what you got.
You have players from the University of Texas Thoroughbreds, all Americans,
highly recruited, playing against guys that played college football William
and Mitne But how many guys out on the Texas
long Horns right now are going to be impact NFL players. Well,

(01:45:01):
there's twenty two on seven. Okay, well, so is that
enough to six? Okay, let me finish my point six
or seven that you think are going to be in
the NFL against number of XFL players are going to
be zero. That's my argument is that you're wrong. I'm
talking about this. You're trying to come at me like seriously,

(01:45:22):
I'm just talking related. I absolutely believe that Texas would
beat the Roughnecks. Okay. Do I think that University Memphis
beats the rough Necks?

Speaker 3 (01:45:31):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:45:32):
Do I think even the twentieth best football team the
country beats him?

Speaker 3 (01:45:35):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:45:35):
But I think you're five your top five year tels. Okay, Well,
even if you take off a few of the top
blue bloods, then the random I don't know, missoo whatever
game because the Missouri Tigers beat the Chicago Blitz, I
don't know. I don't know, but I I'm saying, how
is the product that much worse than college football as

(01:45:56):
a whole? Because my guess is the XFL player, the
quarterback can't throw the ball as far, the receivers can't
run as fast, the linebackers aren't as big the offensive
lineman earnest Ares skills. We watched Georgia win national championships
with Stetson Bennett. What's he doing back up in the
NFL M I don't know. M just thinking out loud.

(01:46:18):
I like our show. Our show is about thinking out loud.
All right, we have a debate about gambling. I'm intrigued.
I'm very intrigued. Now is this a good tease written
by one's Connedy mcgovernor or is this just something that
he's just making up? I don't know. We'll find out
in a moment. Seven one three two one two five
seven ninety seven one three two one two five seven

(01:46:39):
ninety we'll take this program at three o'clock. We're doing
half Amari Cooper and half DeVante Adams. So what are
we doing? Unbelieve it or not? Yeah, that's it? Okay,
So four in each I'll get your Wikipedia out because
Rosses hasn't worked on it yet. What are you talking about?
You're I'm doing that. We'll see, all right, Well, why
don't you get people film better about themselves?

Speaker 4 (01:46:57):
First?

Speaker 12 (01:46:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:46:57):
You know what, Matt, your high energy and I appreciate that.

If you've been you know what's slowing down, plateauing in
workouts now, feeling like yourself? Just think about it. Right now?
Do you wake up with the same vim and vigor
and energy that you did a year ago, five years ago?
Do you feel like you've been slowing down? Maybe your
testosterone levels are low, get them checked. Are you interested

You can tell them to go get a room.

Speaker 2 (01:47:56):
We've shared a hotel room, but they already have and
share the band. Thanks for the visual pillow in between
there's no pillow.

Speaker 1 (01:48:06):
Between you and more lunchtime Houston Sports Talk on Sports
Talk seven ninety.

Speaker 2 (01:48:20):
Two thirty two on Sports Talk seven, Man, I guess
people we work with here, how many of the twenty
two starting guys at UT would be on an NFL
roster and not on a roughneck roster? Probably more than
half of the UT starting players will be an NFL
roster in three years. That's my bet. Balance is my point.

(01:48:41):
I don't know. Uh, Kurt Heidnisch has been activated the
Texans active roster for those of you playing at home. Okay,
and see what else do we got here? Somebody else?
Send me stuff on Twitter? Oh, could the University of
Houston basketball team beat the Grand Valley Bipers? I would

(01:49:03):
say no, no, yeah, I would say no.

Speaker 13 (01:49:10):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:49:11):
From a strictly perimeter standpoint, the Rockets would be in trouble.
I mean the Cougar's will be in trouble because the
NBA three point distance. While it's not dramatically different, it's different,
right am I?

Speaker 3 (01:49:24):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:49:25):
Yeah? And the Cougars have never been known to being
a great perimeter shooting team. Now things could obviously change
this year coming up, and hopefully they will. By the way,
I'm excited. I'm gonna be doing the TV game of
the Cougars against the Texas A and m Aggie's in
an exhibition game. Remember when back in the day, Rossie,
the college teams would play like Central Connecticut Valley Community

(01:49:48):
College in an exhibition game. They get to play anybody
they want now, And so these schools are playing big
time programs A and M versus Houston at at Fertita
Center coming up in a couple of weeks. Is it yeah, okay?

Speaker 3 (01:50:02):
Cool?

Speaker 2 (01:50:03):
Meanwhile, text did that happened last year? No? I thought,
didn't A and M scrimmage? They can play, but you
couldn't do it as a public game. You couldn't do
it with the audience. And you got you kind of
do it out like a gym by yourself and nobody
can come watch. But now you can put the people
in the building. M funny. We asked Textas to do
the same thing, like, no, we're afraid of you, not

(01:50:23):
we got your We got beat by your team twice
last year. We're good. Yes, they're scared quaking in their boots.
By the way, five Big twelve schools in the top
twenty five in college basketball Wow, AP Top twenty five
came out yesterday, Cougar's coming in at number four. Congratulations
to them, hoping they have a great season. You're such

(01:50:44):
a vicious, ugly liar. What are you talking about? People
could hear it in your ear. I just said, congratulations
to them, and I hope they have a great season.
What's the problem. Nobody believes you? That's the problem. What's
the lie? Where is the lie? You really are rooting
for the Cougars to do Well's rooting for them. I'm
wishing them the best. Mike in Baytown at two thirty

(01:51:05):
five on seven ninety Mike, what's your question? Please? How
are you?

Speaker 12 (01:51:09):
What's going on?

Speaker 13 (01:51:10):
Fellas?

Speaker 2 (01:51:10):
What you got? Man?

Speaker 13 (01:51:12):
I think it was last Friday, guys, when you guys
were talking about a lot of the big college games
coming up coming up on the weekend, and y'all were
talking betting.

Speaker 3 (01:51:24):
I don't know which one of you guys said that
Parlays was like throwing money away.

Speaker 2 (01:51:29):
Ross that Ross.

Speaker 3 (01:51:33):
Totally disagree with that, Okay.

Speaker 13 (01:51:37):
I think that for you to say something like that
would be like saying playing golf on the weekend would
be like throwing money away. For me, because I don't
know how to play golf or I don't play golf.
This weekend was a very successful weekend for me.

Speaker 3 (01:51:55):
It's because I still go ahead.

Speaker 2 (01:51:58):
Go ahead, I was okay, So you hit a parlay
for some big money or something, Mike several pies, Okay,
that's good. I'm just gonna tell you it's not an opinion.
It's simple math. The mathematics are bad on parlays and
big parlays, but it's I will I will liken it
to the lottery. The odds are bad on the lottery,

(01:52:19):
but if you put twenty dollars on a scratch off
and you win a thousand dollars, you don't care that
the odds were bad. So I'm not saying that you
can't win. But long term it is going to be
a money loser, just like the lottery. But if you
play the lottery every weekend and you win big, that's fine,
that's cool, that's good. But also it's just a simple fact.
The mathematics of it are bad.

Speaker 13 (01:52:42):
I've heard that before, and and and the and the
reason I have a problem with it is because it
seems like every every weekend, maybe not every weekend, but
quite often I'm winning.

Speaker 2 (01:52:52):
Okay, that's good. Well, I mean you're I mean, you're
clearly a betting savant, Mike, so keep keep it up.

Speaker 3 (01:53:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:53:01):
That that's just my only opinion.

Speaker 3 (01:53:03):
Man, I listening to you guys.

Speaker 2 (01:53:04):
Man, you got to keep thank you very much. Yeah, man,
here's thank you too. I mean, the reality is this,
if you have three games, I'm just suing three as
a number that you just absolutely think you've nailed it,
without a shadow of a doubt. You think you're right up.
For instance, I would say this if I was in

(01:53:25):
Vegas last weekend. You and I are in Vegas. I
felt super strong about Texas covering the game against Oklahoma,
and I felt very strong about the under in that game.
I would have ross put a two team parlay together.
I would have taken Texas and the under and won money.
Mm hmm. But if you're not completely one hundred percent sure,

(01:53:48):
and even if you're one hundred percent, you can't you
can't dictate well how it goes. But if you feel
super comfortent to it and you get a you get
a nice reward if you really think you know what's
talking about. But I will say, in my entire life
I've probably parleyed bets let's say a thousand ross. They
probably cash literally ten of them. Yeah, So if you're

(01:54:10):
if you want to make a bunch of ten twenty
team parlays and you're making money on it, that's good.
You also, generally from the the books aren't handing out
free money DraftKings and fans. It's entice, bit, it's enticing.
I understand where the caller coming from. They don't open
up these books to hand out free money. The parlays

(01:54:31):
they actually make their most money on, because yeah, one
hundred of you people do parlays and ninety nine lows
and they pay out one normally they're winning on that,
and they are winning on that, and they're winning every week,
they're winning every month. Just go look at the handles
of these sports books. So if you happen to be
the one that is hitting parlays, that's great.

Speaker 3 (01:54:47):
You are.

Speaker 2 (01:54:47):
I'm just gonna tell you're getting lucky. It's just like
if I go, like I will again say if I
go to a play the lotto or the scratch off
and I win a thousand dollars and say, you guys
are idiots. You don't know how to win at this
it's it's because I got lucky, and that can happen,
and that's fine, and that's good, and that's okay. I'm
gonna say for most people long term, playing a bunch
of parlays is a bad idea to Playing parlays has

(01:55:10):
never paid off for me. But once in a while,
if you feel super strong about something, I ain't gonna
kill you for doing it, because you do make more money.
If you feel like, without a doubt in your mind,
the Texans are going to cut, are gonna get within
three of the Green Bay Packers, and you go to Vegas,
You're gonna like Charles and you say, I'll take the
Texans plus three. Yeah, but give me another game random.

(01:55:31):
What's an random NFL game here? I'm trying to this weekend. Yeah,
just find something the Vikings and the Alliance. Okay, so
the Vikings are a three point favorite. Yes, if you
if you think, without a shadow of doubt, Detroit's gonna
win that game, then take Detroit. In the money line,
take the Texans plus three. You're gonna make a pretty
good amount of money. But you have to be you

(01:55:53):
have to know that first of all, even if you
and your soul. You know it's right. It may turn
out that way. You get you You just have to
be super confident in your selections. I hope that you
picked the right two games, the right three game. More true,
if it's a fifty to fifty call on the spets,
which if you're better than fifty percent, then that's cool,
that's good. But most people are around fifty percent. A
three team parlay is true. Odds are eight to one,

(01:56:15):
they give you six to one, and then you get
even further up in the odds and they they job
you on the odds even more. So I'm just saying, yeah,
if they're working for you, that's cool. But and to
defend it a little bit further, if you hit one, you
feel really good.

Speaker 4 (01:56:30):
You hit one.

Speaker 2 (01:56:30):
You do not care what the odds. You do not care.
There are people right now and yeah, if you want
to play a bunch of long shots. There's a guy
like I think he bet one hundred dollars on some
parlay and he won like one hundred thousand. I see
him posted every week. You can win somebody and people
doing with them. It just had it's not me, sadly sorry,
Matt all Right. Rockets to night against the Pelicans. Brandon

(01:56:51):
Ingram is gonna play. Zion Wimson I believe is going
to play as well. It is so funny. We had
a funny, funny bet last year about Zion Williamson and
he plays the playing game, which counted as a regular
season game seventy games. It's seventy with the extra playing game.
You said he'd never play seventy in his career and
he'd be retired by thirty. And all the reporters that

(01:57:14):
he lost weight this offseason. Maddie, the reports are accurate
because I have I have a I have boots on
the ground in New Orleans. Okay, your sources, my sauce, sources,
my sauces, your sources at the gumbo shops that he
had been in there. I was over at mother's and
there going. Man, we hadn't seen him in long ass time.
Don't you know they don't talk like that. Yeah, go

(01:57:38):
with your me. What do her? We are rosan in
a long time here for the for the Pelican update, Yeah, water,
he ain't being up in here on a long time. Boy,
do not go to Mother's in New Orleans and ask
for bacon. They will get very mad at you. They
only do sausage. You knew mothers better than mothers anyways, Yeah,
I better. Gordy will tell you it's a tourist trap.

(01:58:01):
Or is that place you and I went too many
years ago that was cut off the beaten track? It
was so good. Oh was that that chicken joint? Yeah? Oh,
that was good. I don't remember. It was late night
and it was like the only place open. We did well.
And you're not talking about Crystal Burger, which we also
went to. We've gone ross and I've done Crystal too,
Crystal Burger and the at two am on Bourbon Street,
and that was and that one, and that was before
we went to the Penthouse orgy place, which really is

(01:58:23):
in an orgy place. No, I did not go there.
That was Matt.

Speaker 3 (01:58:30):
You know me.

Speaker 2 (01:58:31):
If you know me at all, you know where I am.
When I'm in New Orleans. The bus arrives at a
hotel at four fifteen parys five dollars of putting part
five minutes letter and putting parleys down at Harrah's or
they called Caesars. Now, I guess is there something I say?
Is it still Harry's Caesar's Sports Book? I think it's
called Caesar's now I think it's Yeah, I think it's
Caesar's New Orleans. Yeah, okay, which why would they do that?

(01:58:53):
Harrah's was the New Orleans concept casino, and I guess
the bigger question is why isn't there a second downtown casino?
Is it just because the probably they probably bullied them government.

Speaker 3 (01:59:05):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:59:05):
Well, is it still called Harris or not?

Speaker 3 (01:59:07):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:59:08):
I just know it's right across from my hotel and
I'm very happy about that. Y'all can stay with me
if you want to run out of money, stay with me. Rockets,
New Orleans Pelicans Rock Ross has been a New Orleans
Rockets game with me before. I had good times. Yeah. No,
it's the Caesars New Orleans off of it they have.
They're consistently changing, adding new stuff to it. But I mean,

(01:59:33):
was it Harrah's the one that was in the New Orleans? Sure,
the one in Vegas. It's still Harris. That's weird, all right,
believe or not. All things Davante Adams and all things
Mari Cooper and Ross is not even close to being done.

stay with the Yankees, and TV executives will get the
opposite with the guy a year ago, which was ratings
held between the Rangers and the Diamondbacks. They'll get a
ratings bonus. I guess Yankees, the Dodgers and kind of
