Speaker 3 (01:21):
We've done it all and we just talked to Don
McClain in the very last hour. We'll replay that because
it's a four hour show and it was very insightful.
And we're gonna have Steve wish On from the NFL Network,
who is obviously their number one reporter, information type guy,
and he's a West Coast guy and he's got a
(01:42):
real finger on the pulse of what's happening with the Raiders. Yes,
that's right, the Raiders who have hired Pete Carroll, who's
going to be the oldest coach in the history of
the NFL. They just lived harder back in the day.
That's why those guys that we watched look so old.
But Peter Carol also known as Peter Pan, with his
(02:02):
youthful exuberance even though he is old, going to be
the new head coach, basically Tim Kats's boss for the
Silver and.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
He didn't like the pre half a post boom out
of here, right, he man need more hands, Silver and Black.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
It's taken, whiz man.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
I heard you in the in the bathroom there Kate's
come on, man, let's pick it up.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Man, come buss Silver and Black. Yeah, that's the kind
of controlling guy that Pete Carroll is. You know, he's
going to try to permeate every you know, I don't
know if they'll let him do that with the Raiders,
but he did it in Seattle, and I certainly saw
it firsthand at USC. I mean at USC he basically
took Tim Tesslone, who was the sports information director's job
(02:42):
away and gave it to that guy Ben Malcolmson who
was like a twenty three year old guy, and created
a website to break all USC football news. Do you
remember the name of that website?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Usc rips it dot Nett. We're gonna be doing a
pickup a pickup team, man, We're gonna be doing a
pup game, man, coming on.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I'll never forget Pete Carroll, Pete Carrott, Pete Carroll taking
control of the of the sports information where we'd call
Tim Teslon and be like, hey, when's the news coming
out about? Uh well, I don't know, you have to
check us. He rips it. They control all of that, Okay.
Uh so Pete Carroll or Pete Carrott now the head
(03:31):
coach of your Las Vegas Raiders. Whether he's gonna have
the same amount of control as you know, Belichick or
somebody like that would have if they hired him instead,
not really sure. I know that he was up for
the decordinator job for the Niners. They asked me about
that the other day on Softies and I'm gonna run
my temple tube man. Uh And they ended up hiring
(03:53):
their old de coordinator, former Jets guy who was fired
unceremoniously by Aaron Rodgers. I guess Robert Salah is back
in the back, back, back, back back.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
I think I'm gonna use you as kind of like
that line in the water, so to speak. To Testaete,
when I meet him, I was like, hey, uh, you know,
I know Petro's papadekas. He acts like, oh, I hate
that guy, Like right, the guy so Abno, Yeah, he's Greek,
what do you expect? But then he's like, oh, I
love Petro.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
I'm like, right, they're great. He knows, he knows we
all know.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Uh, you know what I would do, Kate, we've never
talked to. I would go up and generate we can
never go back. I would mention John, I think that's
you're in John pa You know what I know, John
Pappadegga is real well to vern that's the path.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
I would all I would you didn't. How many times
did you ever talk to Antonio Pierce?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Oh? Never, not very often?
Speaker 3 (04:57):
And how many times did you talk to Basacha once?
All right? And how many times did you Daniel to
the white guy Josh McDaniels. I did not one time.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
I think maybe one way, Uh Gruden, I did talk
to him once, I believe, so.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
I wouldn't worry too much about it, Okay, I mean
I do think knowing your affiliation with the Pettersen Money
Show is not going to help you at this point.
With Pete Carroll, I won't bring it up, also known
as Pete Carrott, Pete Carrott, E L. G. L. E. S.
Go Berts, Pete Carrott, Mike Leinert speaking of college sports, Matt,
(05:37):
you know that's how we remember Pete in this area.
There's a serious story going on at the University of
California at Los Angeles. His words the word of the day.
Today's word of the day is one of your favorite things.
Matt Denner's prison.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Oh, I love Debnor's prison.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Ben Boltch of the La Times posted a piece today
about the UCLA Athletic Apartment and the financial woes.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
A bunch of dead beats there.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Well. Last fiscal year, you're bill. The last fiscal year
ending on June thirtieth, twenty twenty four, the school provided
the athletic department with a thirty million dollars and lifelines
money to help with their fifty one million dollar deficit.
UCLA has now been in the red for six straight years,
(06:25):
totaling are reported two hundred and nineteen million dollars each
year the school has helped the athletic department cover the debt.
UCLA is like the meth Head cousin.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
Right.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Last year, the athletic department budget increased by twenty nine
million dollars, largely due to the fifteen million and invested
in the school's transition to the Big Ten. They built
a studio on campus for Big ten, plus broadcast, increased
expenditures for academic support, meals and counseling services, and other stuff.
The UCLA Athletic Department also added fifteen new assistant coaches
(07:01):
across all sports, many of which to help the Shawan.
The football team hired a GM, added several analysts, and
expanded the recruiting staff, which I heard they gave him
a lot, a lot of stuff they didn't give to
Chip Kelly. In addition, the school saw a drop and
income from their media deal with lear Field, which has
since ended. Ticket sales decreased by almost four million dollars
(07:25):
and donor gifts were down almost two million. But the
good news is, Matt, and I know what you're asking.
When is that Big ten money going to kick in?
Speaker 2 (07:35):
When is that Big ten money they kick in?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
I know what you're asking. The good news is that
Big ten money is going to finally and that big
rack of Big ten money he's finally coming to UCLA.
When the move the Big ten, they did expect more
money and that comes with metea ites payments estimated at
between sixty five and seventy five million dollars a year,
(08:00):
and that's not including the massive infusion from money from
the Big Ten College Football Playoff and the NC DOUBLEA
Tournament appearances. Now, this is something I vaguely mentioned the
other day that throws a wrench in everything. And it's
going to be very interesting because it's going to go
to court. And I warned about this twenty years ago.
(08:20):
I mean, I knew that this would happen when I
answered these questions when I was just coming off playing.
UCLA has already committed to sharing as much as twenty
three million dollars a year in revenue with athletes. As
part of the house settlement with the NC double A
that they have to pay CAL ten million dollars a
year for the next three seasons because they left them
(08:41):
behind as well. So you got to pay Cal because
the stupid California government deemed that ridiculous. And then the
money that they're supposed to share with the players. The
problem is is Title nine. Because Title nine was set
up in the seventies to create more women's sports on campus,
and they did a great job doing that. Was very
progressive at the time, and it was still in action
(09:04):
very much at places like USC when I was first
starting out there. We added a women's crew team, and
scholarships needed to be added so we could have football.
The existence of football created all of these sports in
Title nine. But now the existence of Title nine is
going to hold you back from paying that revenue to
(09:26):
football players because or revenue sports because they're going to
sue and say Title nine says you have to pay everybody,
the volleyball team and all this, even though the football
team pays for the existence of those schools. So it's
always been a stumbling block, which is why you have
the nil thing people from outside the programs paying your
(09:48):
big star athletes, because if the school tries to pay them,
they're going to run into Title nine and it's going
to go all the way to the Supreme Court and
then they're going to try to figure it out from there.
But the hey, we're going to pay the players, and
it's all we're going to out. Here's our twenty three
million dollars in revenue we're going to share. They might
not have to pay that for years because this is
probably going to go to court for a long time.
(10:08):
But there is a very if you want to understand
the macro economics of modern day athletics, even a stupid
guy like me who doesn't do very well with sunk
cost and all the stuff Matt likes to talk about,
Ben Bolts laid it out pretty well and it was
pretty understandable in that regard. But it looks like that
(10:29):
Big ten infusion and you see why all these teams
joined the Big ten. Seems like that is probably going
to save UCLA sports.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, especially when the're don't have to pay Cal anymore.
University really didn't care about athletics.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Hey, Cal's one of the great more exciting members of
the ACC. Now exactly right, here's my number, number of
the day.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Number the day one. This is crazy case. Did you
get my touch there about the sound the song accompaniment
to our number of the day. I'd love to spice
this up a little bit, as there's going to be
a lot of numbers and a lot of stats, and
it could grow tiresome if there is not a bit
of a soundtrack laid underneath. One involuntary passenger bumped on
(11:15):
a Delta flight in twoenty twenty four one. To put
that in perspective, American Airlines had over thirteen thousand involuntary
passengers bumped.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
That even though you have a ticket year out.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
That means anybody like, hey, I'll give you five hundred
bucks about your in a hotel tonight and you go
up and you voluntarily give up your seat. This is
nobody's taken the bait here. We got to just tell
three people they ain't getting on this plane. One Wall
Street Journal released their best and worst airline rankings from
(11:54):
last year, and as someone that has to travel a lot,
happy to share these results. That is in line with
what I've experience myself. I don't necessarily stay true to
one carrier. Instead, I try like hell to avoid lax.
So I got America and United, Delta Alaska, a lot
of Southwest that I fly. I have long held, well,
not long held the last like five years or so,
(12:16):
that Delta in Southwest are far and away the best airlines.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
You're very very voice seferous about full vo very much so.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Yeah, comfort of the seats being on time, bags showing
up in air, booze selection. You know where I'm going
with Southwest Wi Fi second to none, Delta Entertainment network
fantastic and typically has brand new movies available, and now
they join Southwest with live TV available in the last year.
(12:44):
So for us here a sports station ability on a
flight to kick back if there's a great game on
and you're bummed you might have to miss it because
you're in the air. You feel really good about that flight,
just sucking back a little drink or two, or maybe
you don't like to get dehydrated. So it's just the water,
but you get to watch the team, not just giving
them their accolades for earning it. The gap was sizeable
behind between these two, Delta barely edged out Southwest. They
(13:05):
won by a single point. Frontier finished dead last. Spirit
was eighth, barely ahead of it. The airline that Kates
makes his kids fly seven categories?
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Are they still around? Are there? Frontier now? Frontier? No?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Frontier switched from being like that cool airline with the
animals on the tail to like super low budget ten
dollars tickets, and then you got to pay an additional
fifty bucks for this, seventy dollars for a carry on,
four dollars for a napkin, and twenty dollars for a
thing of water, like they changed the.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Actor at four dollars for a nap.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Actually, their slogan mat is Frontier Airlines Low far is
done right.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Yeah it's not done right? So are they finished dead
ass last? So here we go. Delta first on time
arrivals involuntary bumping. We mentioned the only airline that exceeded
eighty percent on time arrivals. Second in cancelations and extreme
delays over two hours. Third in tarmac delays. Everybody hates those.
You land, Oh, we're terribly sorry. Somebody's at the gate,
(14:02):
but we did get you here so early.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
We're not We're not because I'm sitting here.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
That doesn't count. Fifth and mishandled bags. They're only true.
Blemish Southwest first in three categories canceled flights, tarmacs.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Handled bags. You just you just you just glossed over that.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Well, like I said, it's the only Blenming I charged
for bag. I got an OC so I fly all
these airlines. I have an OC United flight next week
for an Illinois Ohio state game. I have American to
Austin for Texas Alabama a little bit over a week later,
Delta to Birmingham through Atlanta. Two days after that. I
leave on Valentine's Day American to Indy on the twenty
(14:42):
second Southwest from Chicago to Houston after the Combine, and
United from Houston back to Orange County and then the
Big Ten Tournament. I like to fly them all. I
like to fly some more than others. But if you're
planning your spring break, your summer vacation, from my experience,
these rankings that Wall Street Journal put together a spot
on and if you have a choice, if you have
the op I say Delta Southwest for the win, and
(15:03):
these numbers here prove it.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
The other guy that travels more than Matt is George
Clooney from that movie.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Oh, I'm so jealous of him in the air I
want to get that trophy.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Matt knows what it's like.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Uh, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
He's just like Tom Hanks in that movie brushing his
teeth at the airport where he lives at the airport.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
That's me. This is the song of the day.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Running.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
Deep Sea Diver is a four piece band from the
Pacific Northwest city of Seattle with our song of the
day called Shovel. Because you're listening to the Petros and
Money Show on a frog Man Friday, Deep Sea Diving
with extra co two to get us through four full
hours of great sports talk, fulfilling the week's obligation and
(15:51):
sending you into thirty minutes of the Jason Smith Show
on Fox Sports Radio before UCLA takes over with Jost
and Tracy Murray and the Bruins and that pregame show
that's coming your way at seven point thirty. Thank you
for listening.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Hey you Ronnie. This text says, I wonder if Money's
in the Mile High Club aka another spot he passed
out in public.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Interestingly enough, I did have too much to drink at
a bar in Seattle and fell asleep and missed my foot.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
So I don't know if that counts because I wasn't
in the air, but I did miss a.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Flight home from Just leave your father there.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
True story.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
We'll be back with more great sports tack. We'll have
the top story of the day. Man'll do some NFL picks.
Stay with us on a Frogman Friday. Spear's Papa. Everybody,
welcome back. It's Petro, some money on Ami seventy la sports.
(16:51):
It's a Frogman Friday. And we're happy to be with you.
We're happy you're here. We're going to talk to Steve
Weish in our next about the NFL. We have a
local story with an Armenian theme. But right now it
(17:12):
is time for the real horse NFL talk. Show them
who the real horse is with the top story of
the day.
Speaker 6 (17:19):
I'll pip you out.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
I will put you out. This is top of this
so good. We do it twice.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Nine and fifteen years. You know what, someone we know
would be so proud of us. We have taken a
topic and we have managed to thread it through the
entire show, and we will continue to thread it through
the entire show. What topic is that ninth higher in
fifteen years? Here Mark Davis took over Furious a chewing
Furious come chewing a chin down at the fifty yard
line on top of a logo twice a year, Hugh Jackson,
(17:53):
Dennis Allen, Tony Sperano, Jack del Rio, John Gruden, Rich
Bassacash McDaniels, Antonio Pierson now Pete. Nine head coaches in
fifteen years since Mark Davis took over for Al Davis
after he passed away. This is his fifth coach in
(18:14):
five years if you include the interims since Albamas I
used to run through them pretty well too, you know, oh,
no doubt since they moved to Las Vegas in twenty
twenty following and look, this could all be moot if
John Gruden wasn't booted for the emails that were leaked.
He was on a ten year deal. By all accounts,
Mark Davis was happy with him. And it just goes
(18:35):
to show you how weird it can get when something
like that happens if you don't have a head coach.
John Gruden was a great one, and he got booted
for some emails that came to light, and now he's
working at barstool. But Rich Basachi, Josh McDaniels, Antonio Pierson,
now Pete Carroll is.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Going to work. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Maybe there's so many moving parts with Pete Carroll being
hired by the Raiders to be their new head coach
beyond kind of the headline that everyone's pointing to, which
is AFC West now with their fore head coaches compared
to any other division is crazy. You had three teams
make the playoffs this past year, Chargers at the five,
Broncos at the seven. Of course, the Chiefs the one
(19:13):
seed playing on Sunday, looking like they might make a
run at a three peat first in Super Bowl history.
He got a surefire Hall of Famer and Andy Reid
a Super Bowl champion, and I would say a likely
Hall of Famer in Sean Payton, considering the high regard
he is held in around the league for his offensive
genius and what he's done as both a coordinator in
Dallas and a head coach. In New Orleans and now
(19:35):
already you sort of see the fruits of what he
can do with a rookie quarterback in Denver. Jim Harbaugh
certainly going to the College Football Hall of Fame, depending
on how this chapter works out. If there's a super
Bowl here or maybe more than that, five six double
digit win seasons, will he have a case following a
super Bowl appearance in three NFC Championship burst with the
(19:57):
forty nine ers. Probably to that. An individual that we
already went through his accolades earlier this week, Pete Carroll's
probably a Hall of Fame coach big gell two super
Bowl berths, one super Bowl title, super Bowl forty eight,
ten playoff berths.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
In fourteen season, he got fired from the Patriots like
kind of shockingly.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
A lot of people said that was bad. The Jets
was weird too, because they wanted Belichick.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
That's why Jets. He only had a very short time there.
But yeah, that's really the only place that he didn't
have success as a bad guy. He had success everywhere
else he's ever been.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
He's been, like we said, a hall of fame, and
he will likely be a Hall of Fame coach in Canton,
NFL number one defense in the league four consecutive years,
one hundred and seventy wins.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
He might never stop coaching long enough to get into
the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
You know, there's a five year thing. Yeah, I mean,
you know, if he just quit next year, he'd be eighty.
Hope he's around for that. We did mention it did
get a little bit sideways up there in Seattle over
the last eight seasons before he was released in favor
of Mike mc donald, just one and five in the postseason,
missed the playoffs three times in those last eight years.
So which Pete Carroll are the Raiders getting the one
(21:08):
that ran the celebrated legion of boom Seattle Cover three
that everyone wanted to mimic.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
I think it's like, I think the trajectory is the same,
you know, just personality wise is the same as it
was at USC. I think he comes in, he's super
geeked up. He has a lot of energy, he creates
competition in practice, he assembles the staff that he eventually
ends up with the staff that that's really the right
(21:35):
fit and they have a run. And then his personality
and his snapping and his gum chewing and his playing catch.
It all starts to wear a little thin, and people
like Richard Sherman and such try to start rolling their eyes,
and it goes like, that's what happened at USC, that's
what happened in Seattle. Probably not gonna be the situation.
The Raiders is probably not going to be there for
(21:57):
that to happen.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Normally you get a five year d these days in
the NFL, he got a three with a team option
because he's seventy four. But you're absolutely spot on, p
I mean that's they're hired Pete Carroll to come in
and be Pete Carroll and to kind of create Look,
it's completely different than the stability that you know, you
would talk about with Clay Helton and us see, like,
(22:19):
you know, they want a grown up in the air,
and he just get the no, this is you need
someone to steer the ship. You cannot have an Antonio
Pierce or a rich Bassaca or a fancy X's and
O scheme it up coordinator Josh ma Like there's just
been too many of those things back to back to
back to back that you need a professional coach. And
(22:41):
that's what Pete is. It's a semblance of calm of direction.
You always hear culture. I wouldn't be surprised if he
brought back some of his guys. You know, Gus Bradley
was still coaching defense. He was the defensive in coordinator
in Indianapolis, and they had to sacrifice him because somebody
had to get fired after a disappointing season. It wasn't
(23:02):
the head coach, it wasn't the general manager Stikeen or
Ballad So it was Gus. And you know, Gus got
that head coaching job in Jacksonville off what he did
with the defense in Seattle. He ran that defense under
Anthony Lynn here and had pretty good success. They went
twelve and four that one year, won a playoff game
against the Ravens with Gus as their DC. So that
wouldn't surprise me as he's, you know, now available. He's
(23:24):
got Daryl Bevel down in Miami, who's been the QB
coach and sort of the assistant head coach under Mike
McDaniel for a minute. They had great success. They went
to the Super Bowl twice together, you know, kind of
running that offense up there. Maybe he brings him back,
or like you said, you know, maybe he does kind
of go with newer guys and younger assistants and just
(23:47):
hey man, I'm just gonna be the ceoman.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Let's just be the guy. I want to bring back
Brandon karn the I fired Seattle my Son.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
The one thing that's interesting I don't get because look,
the Raiders need a quarterback, but just the amount of
and look it's easy, it's low hanging fruit. I have
no I didn't check the authors of the articles that
were posted. It could just be people that don't know
what the hell they're talking about. But yeah, Russell Wilson's
a free agent. They might want him back in Pittsburgh.
(24:14):
He had a great run when he took over for
Justin Fields, and then he had an absolutely horrible run
the final month of the season and in the first
playoff game. I would assume each of them are going
to be signed by a team, maybe one not both
of them back to Pittsburgh, but one of them likely
will be back to Pittsburgh and go into camp as
the starter to beat out by Challenger, and I would
(24:35):
assume the other one will find a job that is
similar somewhere else around the NFL going into camp as
the starter, but a competition. There's a split, I think
in Pittsburgh over whether or not that's going to be
Fields or Wilson. So the point being, if Wilson is
going to be made available, Pete traded Russell to the Broncos.
(24:55):
And you know this wasn't entirely his fault, because yeah, that's.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
A whole less Russ Cook thing and it didn't end well.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
No, it ended horribly. And then it's one thing to say, hey,
you know what he wanted out. We decided to move on.
It's all good, we're fine. It's probably better that we
each move on. But it wasn't like that because he
made Geno the starter and everybody lost their mind and
they're like Geno Smith. So Pete had to go out
there and defend Geno and say, no, he's a better
quarterback and he's going to prove it. And he was right,
(25:24):
and you can argue that since that trade, Gino Smith
has been a better quarterback than Russell Wilson. So I
just don't know how that that doesn't make sense to me.
I think you'd be you'd be more likely to see
him make a trade for Gino if he gets upset
that the Seahawks aren't going to extend him in the
last year of his deal, and the Raiders are willing
(25:44):
to give him two or three years. I think that's
more likely than Russell Wilson and Pete getting back together.
And I would assume people that are paying close enough
attention to the NFL Raider fans, if they do, would
recognize that, Yeah, you're a hell of a lot better
off with Gino Smith as your quarterback and Russell Wilson
previous accolades, you know, notwithstanding because Russell Wilson's not that
(26:06):
quarterback anymore. I guess it could happen. Maybe he could
blame it on John Schneider or something, or Shane Waldron,
the new OC that didn't want to deal with Russell
and get Russell Wilson back there. But it does seem
like either figuring out a way to draft cam Ward
or should or Sanders remembers Pete won with Russell as
a rookie, so it's not like he doesn't know what
(26:27):
it's like to win with a young quarterback and protect
him with a running game and protect him with a
good defense. They've got good defensive pieces over there, so
you might see him. You know, repeat that, but that's
going to be imperative. That's number number one. Look, you
got to give it to the guy. Never in a
million years did I think, after sitting out the year
at seventy four years old, be the being the oldest
coach by six years in the league and he read
(26:47):
his sixty eight that we're going to see Pete Carroll
right back in the league as a head coach.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
But good for him. Mayn't you think Belichick's gonna be
pretty pissed?
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I would think so. I think Belichick's got to be like,
you got to be kidding me. I'm faking Carolina. I'm
I'm in a living room in Columbia, South Carolina right now.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
Ready to play.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
Yeah, exactly. No, I would assume that Belichick is incredibly
upset that he or his agent couldn't figure out one
of these You got Liam Cohen in Jacksonville, yeh, And
I don't think. I don't think New Orleans has hired
anyone yet. They're still looking for a guy, and Bill
had to take the North Carolina.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
But who knows.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
I mean, maybe Bill's decided that he's better than all
these other college coaches. He knows everything I've got all
the answers. You're all idiots. Well that's me too, That's true.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
That's basically every coach I've ever met.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
Gotta be fun to see the handshake twice a year
between he and Harbaugh when the Raiders and the Chargers tangle.
I know, we make a big deal out of that,
and typically it's just all right, yeah, all right, yeah, great,
good luck to you. All right, great to see you later.
That's typically what it will be. But good luck to
him and good luck to Pete.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
They got to go to cal Belichick's coming here, is
that right? Yeah, twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
Let's go at Colt's, grab ed Quinn and get up
there and call.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
The game date to be to be determined. You know,
it could be like a Friday night game or something. Right.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Oh, he'll love that.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
And they have Stanford too, Stanford coming out to Chapel Hill,
gotta love it.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
Belichick is gonna love the moving schedule. I know you're
playing on Friday night, and then what and then Saturday?
And then what Friday again? And then what Saturday? At
ten am?
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Sweet? I asked for the games.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Let's see if we can make it a seven and
zero postseason w'ere four zero after the divisional round. Pretty simple,
I'm gonna take the dogs. Something special about this Commander's team,
and a lot of times a wild card team gets
to the conference.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Chance special it's Jaden Daniels.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Mom, you ain't kidding. Turns out she was right. I
guess Cinderella fades and the wild guard team tends to
get blown out in this round. But I just don't
see it, not with Jalen Hurts, not with that knee,
not with how poor the passing game has been all year.
In fact, the Commanders just score points on anyone and everyone.
They got a damn good offense. They are down Sam Cosmi,
(28:57):
their right guard. That means Jalen Carter could be a
big problem. But Jayden Daniels has not has turned in.
He's just been an incredible quarterback this entire season. And
as good as that Eagles defense has been, as spectacular
as they are up front, Daniels just doesn't take sacks.
He's so good at getting out of trouble, throwing on
the run or running making things happen. I don't know
(29:18):
if they'll win, but much like last week, I just
couldn't see him losing by nine and a half points.
I don't see him losing by more than six, So
I'll take the points there. Sam goes with the Bills,
give me the two and just give me hope, Man,
give me hope.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Why you're not into the Chiefs?
Speaker 5 (29:33):
No, not.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
I don't like them somehow, some way. This is the
year that the Chiefs run as halted.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
A lot of scrutiny on those officials.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
There will be Clay. I keep wanting to say Clay Harbor,
but that is not his name. Clay. I can't remember
his last exactly, Clay face. We'll see if he can
make it happen. Chiefs are probably gonna win the game.
But at least I can have this. I have no
interest in feeling, say seven and zero that Super Bowl,
you can really flush that. I wouldn't feel good about it,
you know, not like this. I don't want to go
(30:05):
seven and zho if it means the Chiefs are going
to the Super Bowl again and probably winning their third
in a row. But when you look at the matchup,
it does feel like they're much like the Commanders, but
in a different sense. That there is something special going
on with this Bills team. The way Joe Brady's calling
it and it's just been one of those years where
they keep it close and then the fourth quarter Josh
Allen is special and puts a team on his back
(30:28):
and just absolutely refuses to lose a game. And they
already beat him once earlier this season in Buffalo. So
let's let's say they'll do it again. Take the two points,
take the Bills, take the six points, take the Commanders,
and man, if we can get a Buffalo Washington super Bowl,
they'd be pretty fun rematch. In nineteen ninety one, who
could forget? Can't forget that one, the k gun versus
(30:50):
Mark Ripping, Ripping, just kicking ass Darryl Green, Right, people
forget how crazy that offense was.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
Oh Mitchell returning punts. Let's say it was nuts.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
The Hogs, the Hogs up front.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
We'll be back.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
That's that Super Bowls. I want to make sure I
had a righte thirty seven to twenty four. They won
that Super Bowl over the Bills. It's one of the
many that the Bills lost four in a row. Yeah,
in our whole lives, they just were there every year
and they lost almost every year. Ernest Beiner, Yeah, he
(31:25):
went over there after the Browns. That's right, Art Monk
Gary Bark.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
Yeah, chief Z, the black guy that dressed up like
a Native American in the stands. Chiefs that guy, Yeah,
I forget about chief Z. Can't forget about him. We'll
be right to him. Do now he's got a three
quartered hat on. We'll be right back with more sometimes
when somebody shot him. Find seventy l a.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Sports home of the NFL, will do it again at
the bottom of next hour, right around five thirty with
Steve Wisch Network man, it's all over breaking news in
the NFL, and we'll talk about the Raiders opting to
go with seventy four year old Pete Carroll.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
Well, I'm looking forward to what he's gonna say. It
is time for some secret text USSOS.
Speaker 6 (32:17):
Secret line brought to you by your so called Toyota dealers.
Speaker 3 (32:22):
We make it easy. Uh. We'll start out with this.
Tell money, I'll get him drunk on his next Southwest flight.
I'm a flight attendant and I appreciate him washing Southwest
Airlines balls on great sports talk. Wow, another flight attendant
to get Matt drunk, great sports talk, that's.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
What we need.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Remember that woman on that flight home from Houston. Yes,
gave me every last bottle of wood for the.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
We're out of Woodford. Would you like some doors at
this point? Sure?
Speaker 2 (32:51):
Oh yes I would.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
My grandfather was an air raid warden in WW two,
not far from usc You like them apples? We played
an air raid public awareness do op song, which basically, yeah,
but it's like, if there's a nuclear war, don't run,
don't smoke, help the kids. It just feels like you're screwed,
(33:19):
no matter what it's like, you know, I mean, I
don't know. I don't think the people in Heroshima were
gonna be like, Hey, we didn't run, We're good. You know,
we were calm. That's why we didn't disintegrate.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
See that person over there smoking, That's why I don't smoke.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
Stay off the highway. Stay off the highway.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
Why trying to get the hell out of the blast radius.
Speaker 3 (33:44):
There was a time at the ball when Petros showed
Debbie Gibson the back exit just as my buddy and
I were closing in. You've basted. See that's not true.
We did show a special contingent of Joey McIntyre New
Kids on the Block fans earlier today, where they could
see him secretly coming out of the building, right and
(34:09):
k seemed to upset somebody at least, uh, could you
ask Sweet James if you're liable when those cows trampled
Joey McIntyre to death, Hey, that is not cool.
Speaker 4 (34:22):
Who said they were cows?
Speaker 3 (34:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (35:15):
What made you say that, Kates?
Speaker 4 (35:16):

little old in the face. You mean his eyes, well,
you know, cheeks, everything around it.
Speaker 5 (35:22):
Yeah, cheeks, you know, everything around it.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
Joey McIntyre's secret backdoor instrants sounds like something they talk
about on the Dudes on Dudes podcast. Just a little bit.

or is he a dog? He buy me a dog?
You got me a dude? Are you a man? Or
are you a melon? I hate you for playing this
