Did you see me? Had? An hour or three after?
If you were perked up and ready to go, what
do you I was perked up all right back in
his chair. Wasn't here? Are you saying that was a
(02:11):
good day for us to be on radio? Because nobody
could see what the body I think would I think
I went to sleep from the end of the before
the last segment until like the first minute of the
last segment. Like, yeah, it's one of those one of
those weeks where you just your body just says you've
had enough, go ahead and do that. We'll wrap up here,
(02:32):
Like are you sleep right now? You know how you
start hearing voices and it's like, you know, it's like
a dream, but it's real, and then you realized, like
your name is being called like LaVar, LaVar, LaVar, and
then you came back again. I came back yesterday. Yeah,
there's uh. There was a couple of days this week
where I took my nap after the show and I
woke up and had no idea where I was. You
(02:53):
ever had the pool over after the show. I've gotten close.
So one of times I had to. I had to
pull over after the show. So and then and then
I get home and my wife is like, yeah, I
need you to take her to school. So I had
to drive back to Alter. So every stoplight I closed,
(03:17):
I say, baby, when it turns green tail, Daddy, it's great.
By the way, we don't recommend that you got to
be safe. But yeah, but everybody, everybody's been there at
some point where're like, yeah, I gotta I gotta pull
over to the side of road and get get a nap,
or pull over to the side of the road. I
pulled into a parking lot, Like I pulled over and
(03:39):
went into a target parking lot. Yeah, and and got
like a real power Oh I I when I was
driving a cross country from l A to South Carolina
for my first job in radio, I went to I
forget I think it was a Walmart parking lot. I
was so tired and it was. It was kind of
a sketchy party. I didn't even or what stayed I
(04:00):
was in and just pulled over and took a nap
in the parking lot. I could not drive any longer
because it was going to be a problem and I
don't want to flip my truck and the little U
haul trailer. I was a truck right now. Yeah, nobody
was gonna bother you. Yeah, sketchy, they wouldn't bother you
right around. He's here waiting for work today, Like, let
(04:21):
that man be man. I just hit the R trailer,
though that might have hit your trailer. I just hit
the thirty thousand mile mark of that truck. You did
something to talk about cost effection. Yeah, you definitely have
a Sandford and Son. Yeah, it looks bad. I stayed
(04:44):
loyalty about the Carolina Panthers P J Walker getting it
done on Thursday night with his hundred eight yards passing.
Although the Leavisca chanal a touchdown probably should have counted
as a pass it goes down as a run. But nonetheless,
the Carolina Panthers get it done last night and NFC
(05:06):
South Battle and the Carolina Panthers all of a sudden,
maybe are making a little bit of noise in that
NFC South because well, I'm just saying everybody thought Tampa
Bay was going to run away with it. Yeah, they're Carolina,
I think is in a much better spot than a
lot of people anticipated them being at this point in time.
But nonetheless, they get it done. You got Baker Mayfield
(05:27):
headbutting guys. See man that hey, when you watched the game,
when you watched the game on Amazon Prime, like I
watched it on my phone yesterday, do you watch it
on your phone? Do you watch it on like your
screen and pull it up on Amazon prom um it depends.
I watched it on the television last night. I streamed
it on the TV last night, but sometimes I'll watch
(05:47):
it on the phone. It's crazy. Yesterday I watched it
on my phone for the first time, and I kind
of liked the experience. You know, I like the experience,
and you know, I liked it because it had like
the stats they had next in stats running, like how
how much space you create, you know when you're running
a pass route. Um, it was crazy, like all the
(06:08):
stats that that we're being provided for you right underneath
the game. So I'm sitting there watching the live stats
go up while while the game was going on. I
kind of I kind of enjoyed that. Yeah, I mean,
I had it on mute. I didn't listen volume down,
but I enjoyed looking at the game and watching the
stats go up. That's pretty insulting to Al Michaels and
Kirk Curve Street Company. Yeah, and and al Michaels as
(06:32):
well too. But hey, listen, we got ourselves, Uh, we
got ourselves a you know, a fun game last night.
And and uh, Brady Quinn, I know you were fired
up about that game as well too, so so so yeah, Brady,
Quinn is so fired up. He's we're just breaking down
the all twenty two is right now and uh, and
just making sure that we are all good to go
as far as that that conversation. But we're wondering why
(06:53):
I was talking. So I just trying to make sure
we fixed the connection with the que with the Q dog.
I was trying to I trying to vance sage. It
was there. Look, he said, he was there literally through
your head. Now look at perfect city. Not there through
into coverage, just through me, right, the double coverage. All right. So,
(07:15):
so the Carolina Panthers are now sitting they are three
and seven. Uh, they are tie well, they're officially in
last place right now of the NFC South, but they're
just a game and a half back, which is crazy. Yeah,
but that just tells you how bad the NFC South is.
I mean, yeah, it's I mean, you know, it's a
little bit disrespectful to the NFC South. But I mean,
(07:35):
Brady Quitt, I don't know. I think we run to
the sports book right now and lay some money on P. J.
Walker and company to win the NFC South right time.
He come on, aren't you fired up about what happened?
Last night in the rain, those hot black helmets they
rolled out there on a Thursday night game. Let's go
see a little altar alive uniform. What are we gonna
call it? But no, we talked yesterday about man. He's
(07:59):
got a really really cool story for anyone who saw him.
He had like a really productive year at Texas one
yere and then you know he went to Houston, had
a productive year. But he's kind of like floated under
the radar. He's like magically emerged as kind of their
guy after after training away Chritian McCaffrey and it's there's
an age old saying and this sounds awful, and I
(08:22):
do wonder if you guys will agree, But um, running
backs grow on trees in the NFL. You can find
running backs, you can. I'm just sorry. Like we see
all the time guys who weren't the highest drafted guys
undrafted one team to another until to the next, and
they seem to be able to produce. Deontay Foreman was
that guy for the Panthers at least last night. By
(08:44):
the way, Deontay Foreman. For anybody to play fantasy football,
they know this. When the bye weeks came Deontay Foreman
was always a guy that was available for whatever reason.
Nobody wanted any part of him in every league. Always available,
he got somebody on a bye week signed him up.
But you had Christ McCaffrey, Super Hubbard, he had other
running backs were always ahead of him, even on his
(09:05):
own roster. That's not opully surprising. Um, why were they
still running the football when Atlanta only had one time
out left and they got the ball back at that point,
aren't you taking knees and trying to get this game
over with? And they just kept running the football? Were
they trying to pat stats? There was Steve Wilkes trying
to get him, Uh, you know, did he have some
sort of contract that he was trying to fulfill. Did
(09:26):
he have like accelerators or something like that. They were
still running the football late in that game. But nonetheless,
the Atlanta Falcons uh missed opportunity to close some ground
on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who were in Germany this
weekend playing the Seattle Seahawks. And so the NFC South
sitting there three and seven the Carolina Panthers and now
just a game and a half out, which is the
(09:46):
worst record in the NFC South three and seven, and
but but to be right there, to be what you say,
one and a half games, yeah, I think one and
a half. I think I just think that that just
tells you all you need to know. And I'm more curious.
Hold on, I'm just who are the three wins against
(10:07):
the entire division? That's that's far. They've only did their
own divisions so far. It's just it's interesting to me
to look at where Tampa Bay will will end up
like on this side of it, I'm now curious as
to will Tampa Bay assert themselves and pull away or
(10:28):
will they still stay with the pack, because right now
they are a part of the pack. Right, so I
think that that's pretty you know. I mean if the
New Orleans Saints and and the Falcons are right there
on you I mean, the Falcons took a step back
last night, so they're at four Wednesday. They could have
took took over about one game, right if I'm if,
if the math is correct, the Falcons take over first
(10:52):
place if they win last night, um or maybe yes,
yeah that's correct. Yeah, they be a half game up
and then they can't be the worst team in the division.
To be able to take that that lead. You know,
it looks it sounds like the NFC East right now, Yeah,
(11:12):
like the opposite of what it's still competitive cove. By
the way, what about Jonas Knox knowing all the different
scenarios based on who wins or losing in the NFC
South right now and who's leading and who's who's at
the bottom, I mean out of applause, and you know,
I have one question today, Yeah, I just I got
one question though. Why are the Tampa Bay Buccaneers favorite
(11:34):
against Seattle in Germany? Like somebody explained to me why
Tampa Bay would be favorite over Seattle anywhere? Outside of
playing at Tampa Bay. Tom Brady has a lot of
German ties, and there's there's potentially maybe some whole field
advantage there with the you know that the news that's
(11:58):
very good. By the way, is ram Stein gonna be
doing the the Star Spangled banner or their their national
anthem before they go out to the before they I
have no idea what you By the way, Happy Veterans
Day to tell all our veterans out there, you know,
shouts out to you guys, thank you very much. We
really appreciate you guys. So I hope, I hope you
(12:18):
guys are enjoying your day, especially for women. Yeah, yeah,
absolutely so it was Veterans Day, shot to Veterans Day
growing out to my pops, Big Mike, all those guys. Huh,
big deal for you guys growing up day always of course, always,
of course, it's every day is a Veterans Day for
for me though. You know, I enjoyed that. I enjoyed
(12:39):
the whole I did that. I'm a Veterans kid, you know.
I wish I could have served. I don't think I
would have made it though, why not? I don't know, man,
I just I know the stories, like I know the
deep dark details of what you gotta go through to
get prepared, especially if you, like are are not just
you know, a regular every day just soldier, Like you
(13:01):
go in and you want to be like a you know,
like a ranger or a Beret or you know any
of those guys. Like that's bro, that's some serious action, broh,
serious action. So we we we tap something that's gonna
play this weekend, you know, four Veterans Day, and just
act with it like thank you, thank you, thank you.
So it's all the veterans out there for all they've done,
(13:24):
even all our active military for their serving. Eventually they'll
segue into this one day, um you're or hopefully you know,
you know, we're not talking about a memorial for them. Instead,
it's it's obviously their their service that we're appreciative of.
But the point is we were we were out filming
and I was talking with some of the soldiers and
(13:45):
they were saying just about their training. And one of
the things I think as an athlete, like you usually
have a start to finish. However you're training, whatever game,
whatever it is that you're playing, like that's your mindset,
Like you're you're saying, I'm gonna go as long as
hard as need to in order to win this, but
at some point there's gonna be an end to it.
In the trending for a lot of the military, like
(14:07):
when I when I was like talking with these guys
are on the tank. They are in this thing for
hours upon hours upon maybe even days because they're like, look,
there's times when you can't get out of the town.
And when when they were like taking me to the
different compartments, like the guy who drives the tank, that
guy is in the front of a tank, literally in
a coffin. And the scariest thing to me when we
(14:29):
were talking about it, because I was watching the way
the top of the tank rotates. You know, the gun
has to be facing all the way the opposite direction
in order for him to be able to open his
portion of his door to get out. So if there
was ever a fire, if there was anything else like that,
and the gun was inoperable and it was facing forward,
(14:49):
he'd be blocked in, like he's got to find a
way of fishing through just to get out. And so
we were kind of talking about all the different training
and scenarios that they go through. But there you're you're
you've got guys. You've got more guys to a tank.
A guy driving, a guy who's obviously gonna be loading
the big gun up top, a guy who's gonna be
working a machine gun, another guy is gonna be um
basically sighting in, you know, the enemy, and all four
(15:13):
of those guys and are very very small, cramped space
and you're in there for like literally could be days.
And he was saying, they do this like in the
desert in the heat, like try I was going to
through that that is just like claustrophobic, no fan, nothing,
And he was just saying like, that's that's how it is. Man,
it's crazy. I mean the stuff they do to just
(15:35):
to prepare for battle. My dad crazy, my dad. That's
how my dad lost his legs. He was on the tank,
he operated on tank. They got ambushed, and when they
were ambushing him, he jumped to get on to man
the machine gun on top, and the operator didn't know
he was on the tread and pulled off. And while
they're shooting, he's trying to elude, you know, kind of
(15:56):
not get hit, and it's something part of his boot
got into the tread. That's that's how the whole thing,
you know, kind of went so start pulling his boot
into the tread. He had to use his other foot.
Right now, they're moving, right, they're moving, and they're being
shot out there under fire. He had to use his
other foot to try to remove himself and and his
foot got caught into If that tells you how how
(16:18):
much that tread grabs on on those those tanks. So,
I mean he had to watch his leg. His leg
was getting chewed up by the by the tank tread.
So but yeah, that the tank operators and the whole
tank deal, like that is a whole deal. That's a
whole entire deal. But that's like the whole military, Like
for every branch or everything that you do, there's a
(16:40):
whole entire deal, like you know. The one that gets
me the words is watching them have to do the
water exercises and how long they have to stay under
the water, and it's like they're gonna let you pass out.
You're gonna pass out under the water, Like guys are
gonna pass out under the water. They're gonna come get
you and they're gonna revive you, but you're gonna pass
I out undernoe. One of my worst fears always somebody
(17:03):
always used to ask what would be the worst way
to die, falling from heights, burning or drowning. I gotta
say drowning. I mean, I think falling from height would
be kind of jacked up to but I probably would
never be high enough to to die that way outside
of being on a plane. But I mean, just the
things they have to endure in order to be prepared
(17:24):
to go protect our country man. People have no idea
like to queues point you talk about, you know, ah,
we're running laps or we're running wind sprints. Well, you know,
guys get tired and football practice or whatever. You know,
what you do, you slow down your dog it you stop.
You're not allowed to do that. You can't do that
in the military. You gotta go. You gotta go. You
(17:47):
gotta prays. No, there is no option. Your practice is
getting to the doorstep of death every single time out.
Just say, you can prepare for what it'll be like
if it actually happened, man, my god, and then you
gotta go do it. That deployment is not a game, man,
when you get deployed, it's not a game. So for
those who may not know as much as is you
(18:10):
know others do about our military and what our our
armed forces do. You know today you don't have school.
You know, you get an opportunity to have the day
off and in many cases educate yourselves a little bit.
If you know somebody who served, take the time to
tell them you appreciate them. You know, man, get some
get some education on it. Like look it up. You
(18:30):
look a lot of other things up. Look up. What
our military does. You don't have appreciated is some schools
don't have it off. Like, my kids are in school today.
I mean they've missed the past couple of days because
of hurricane or tropical school Tropical Storm Nicole, which I
did give Jonas a lot of updates as far as
the damage. Yeah, it was, it was. It was pretty brutal.
(18:54):
But you know, it's it's sad that you know, they
missed teenags of school. So now regardless that they're trying
to make up today and it's like, well, this is
a dad like I'd want them to go to take
off so they can learn about their father, their grandfather
and them serving. I understand that, you know what that
really means, but unfortunately I don't even know that a
lot of school Steven take it off anymore. Yeah, well
all my kids are. And if they weren't off, they
(19:16):
wouldn't be going in. It's just what it is. Yeah,
they wouldn't be well shouts out obviously, and everybody who served,
um just tremendous. And I don't I don't think any
of us can really relate. And you guys can obviously
growing up with it, but for a lot of us
out there, you know, hearing those stories, it's crazy, man.
So so all the love that they get today is
more than than deserved and uh and we appreciate all
(19:38):
their service and everything they've done for us. Here it

we get to uh, the very latest on the drama
that won't go away in the NFL, we did want
to pay full respect to Veterans Day and all the
(21:03):
veterans out there who protect and serve this country. And
we'd also like to point out that it is also
a football Friday Friday night and mom Jail Friday, Veteran
Veterans Day, Happy day. Here we go Saturday, it is
(21:28):
a football Friday here on fs are. By the way,
we just saw Brady Quit on a commercial here on
TV two standing next to Rob Stone right now just
just look, we're looking at it right now. We're on
radio advertising for Yeah, big newon Saturday. Come on man, Yeah,
(21:48):
yeah time, big time. Uh. And by the way, speaking
of big time spread this week it is and uh,
speaking of spread, it's time to stop treating your groins
like junk. Introducing the Gillette Intimate Pubic Hair Trimmer, a
gentle and easy shade from America's number one trusted men's
grooming brand. Show your pubic regions and we're strict with
(22:12):
Gillette Intimate. How did spirit The best a man can get? Okay,
you know that is the best man can get? Sure?
Sure is all right? So, uh, guests, who's back in
the news? The Washington Commando. No, no, yeah, that's right. Yeah,
it's the Washington Commandos. There was reports that there was
(22:33):
going to be a big announcement on Thursday, and so
step right up. It was d C Attorney General Carl
Racine announcing announcing what they have found. What they have
found when it came to the Washington Commandos and the
NFL and Roger Goodell, take it away. What we found,
what the evidence overwhelmingly established, what we will prove in
(22:57):
court is clear wrongdoing and violations of DC residents consumer rights.
The defendants lied about what they knew, and then they
lied about what they were going to do about it,
all in the service of protecting image and profit. We
(23:17):
alleged that the National Football League and its commissioner, Roger Goodell. Mr.
Snyder and the commanders misled the public about what was
being done to address the allegations of harassment and the
toxic culture that the commanders maintained. They did all of
this to hide the truth, protect their images, and let
(23:40):
the profits continue to roll. So there it is. That
was the DC Attorney General car rac And announcing what
they have found. This obviously talking about the NFL basically
covering up the Beth Wilkerson investigation. So the commandos have responded,
uh so, yeah, they they look to establish once and
(24:01):
for all what is fact and what is fiction and
and prove this wrong. The NFL is as spit back
on this report as well too. I'm exhausted by this
whole thing. Are they Are they selling the team or
not selling the team? You're gonna have to sell the
I mean, come on, man, they're gone. That's that's kind
of what my like question is, Like, what's the end game? Yes,
(24:24):
the team? Right? Well, here here's the interesting part of it. Yes,
you got to sell the team. But then how are
you making good on what still lingers in terms of
the damage that that he's done. Like, I know there's
already been settlements, but you would have to assume there's
going to be more settlements, And I mean that's not
you know for me, I know these are kind of
(24:45):
allegations or have come from the reports and stuff like that.
Just think about how much stuff has been left out. Again,
I hate to make it about me, but I'm I'm
I'm a direct product of all this crap that's being
this US. I said that a long time ago, Like
he did that with contracts. He after my contract. They
(25:08):
they they left me on my contract, like they've been
doing crazy stuff. Then there's a lot of stuff that
isn't in the report. I never did any interviews. I
never was was, you know, during a deposition or anything
of any kind. I can't even imagine all the conversations
that I've had with former players that have have been
a part of something that was strangely done, we'll say,
(25:30):
or workplace related. There's so much corruption and and and
so much just nastiness about how things have been done.
And and it's like what happens after they sell it,
Like there has been so much collateral damage done due
to the way things have been done, regardless of if
(25:51):
they want to, you know, contest whether it's true or not.
You gotta believe the the amount of information that has
truth to it, that has validity to it is probably
so overwhelming it's so overwhelming. Like I still those cheerleaders
that were fouling, I'm I'm, I'm pretty cool with one
(26:14):
of one of the ones, the one of the main ones,
and I'll leave her nameless. But they have been fighting
and protesting and fighting. They follow the team around, they
go to the hotels, they go to the gatherings, and
they protest, and they're fighting to have the report released.
And you gotta ask yourself the question, why hasn't the
(26:37):
investigation that the NFL has done, why hasn't the reports
been released? And I tell you, damn. I think the
Attorney General, Carla Seen said that they're not sure the
investigation of their reports gonna be released either. It's bad.
I don't know if that's more of a legal I
don't know if that's the world a legal thing or not.
(26:58):
But I do know the NFL provided and turned over
one point six million documents. So obviously, when when this
when this became public with with Carl Racin's words, the
NFL and Roger Goodell, who are also a part where
I guess I should say that we're in his cross theirs.
It's not just a Washington commandos, it's also the NFL.
It's also Roger Goodell. You know, they basically serve them
(27:22):
back and we're like, you tell us where we what
we did wrong. Here's one point six million documents to
back up our belief on how we've handled this and
how you know, Roger handled this. So this is gonna
be one of those you know, knockdown, drag out fights
that is ultimately gonna cost taxpayers a ton of money
of everything that's gonna go into this. But I think
(27:43):
the team will be sold probably before this will be
sorted out, and then it kind of just leaves you wondering, like,
all right, like what else will come from it at
that point? Or will it finally die down once Dan
Snyder has to sell the team because people still are
going on one, they're going to want compensation for what
him well, because he's gonna sell for what's seven billion? Yeah,
(28:06):
I mean, but they're probably gonna look at it corporately speaking,
they're gonna they're gonna want it from him, but it's
gonna have to go through probably the franchise. So that's
that's I think that that's the whole conversation is how
is that if there's really things to be settled. How
is it going to get settled because he's got to sell.
Like this is the reason why, you see Dan Snyder,
(28:27):
they knew this was coming. They had to have known
this was coming. So now it's like this is on
on the horizon. You better get proactive about moving this team,
and you better let it be made known publicly that
you're moving to to to seek selling this team, like
you better do it now, Like that's that's that has
(28:47):
to be the reason why. Just knowing how Dan Snyder
has been and how he handles things, and how bullish
he is and how he fights like that dude fights
for his He will fight you for what it is
that he wants or what he has Danny, Little Danny.
So for him to be in a situation where he's
he's now conceded, I am going to sell this team.
(29:07):
We're seeking through the bank to sell the team. You
knew this is getting bad. It's going to get it's
going to get so ugly bad detail wise for him
that for the sake of his family, I would assume
you gotta do this. You can't. You can't fight this
is one you can't you can't win. You can't win
this one. So just just take your take it and
(29:31):
go like, get out and go by what a consolation prize.
Here's here's six billion dollars, here's six billion dollars. You know,
could you just go away for a few minutes, like
he's gonna get six billion dollars for this team. That's unbelievable.
So let me listen to uh said, Well, we'll we'll
(29:51):
see how this all shapes up. But now you know,
Ron River is probably gonna be asked about it, and
then the team is probably gonna have to deal with
more of this, and it just drags on and on
and on. It is too Pros and the Cup of
Joe here on Fox Sports Radio coming up next. If

they're playing this before the Bucks and the Seahawks in Germany. Well,

they have the dancing Viking lead him out. Maybe techno Vikings. Yeah,
the guy that looks like Dan Quinn looks blocking like crazy. Yeah.
By the way, you imagine Brady Quinn Dublin coffin high
(31:18):
knowing that he's going to be at the German district
later in Columbus. What's standing at the squat rack? Six
plates each side, tang tang, and he's not even doing
typical squat What do you call district? Yeah? What is that?
(31:41):
What it's called? What's it called in Columbus? Yeah? That
one too? District village? Come on, happened with Jonas? No, listen,
you told me about the when we didn't Now he
hears stuff. He just looks stuff not true. When we
did a show in Columbus, I was like, what's around here?
And one of the places you mentioned was the German
(32:03):
village I remember is not cleaning up post production. It's
fine village district, you know, same difference, not the less.
It is actually a really deep spot. Did you go
there when you were in Columbus? We walked around afterwards.
I don't know if we went there, but we went
to uh we went to a bar in Columbus in
(32:24):
August that still had Christmas lights up, so that what
happens to keep it festival year round. By the way,
if they if they had their Christmas lights up, it
wasn't that they kept them up. Maybe they put them
up early. You don't know that great point, listen. I mean,
it's never too early to start, I guess. I mean,
you know, but people have got Christmas lights up, you know,
in houses in my neighborhood now, which is disgusting. But
(32:48):
you know that's fine. We wanted disrespect and just skip
over Thanksgiving. That's okay. I guess we can. We can
decorate for Thanksgiving, put turkeys. Pumpkin's got a turkey. You
can't do that in Ohio, because something there's gonna be
a twenty two caliber bullet flying through one of those
(33:12):
this time of here. By the way, you shooting give
your a house, think it's a live turkey, a wild
turkey runner. My sister has turkeys at her house. My
sister's got these turkeys that are massive. And you'd be
shocked when a turkey is not fearing for his life
once a year, he'd be shocked how aggressive they are.
They don't care. They'll walk right up to you, not
(33:33):
a care in the world, could don't care. They'll pock
you out. Oh yeah, they don't. You know. I would
assume a peacock is is the cousin to a turkey.
I'm just assuming. But they're the same way. And and
let me tell you something. They'll jack you up there
their their claws or whatever they got, they'll jack you up.
Now it's an ostrich. Also part of the uh is
(33:55):
that part of the family. I don't mess those things.
Those things are big and scary. They'll gore you. They'll
just sty'll rip your intest and they'll do the same
like I'm telling you, peacocks and turkeys will they'll they'll
pack you out. Yeah, hurt even fight at Ostrich. I'm
assuming you just got to try to get a hunch.
(34:17):
You gotta get around body. You gotta try to get
around its neck like that's the most exposed part of it,
I would assume, So you gotta try to wrap yourself
around the neck. Big talents use a rocket launcher. Just
get it over quick, just split that. That's what I'm saying.
If you try to, you can't outrun it. You're not
(34:38):
going to outrun it, and you're not gonna like out.
I don't know. You just got to try to get
because you gotta assume the beak. They don't have teeth,
so they're not going to bite you, right, So you
gotta go for the neck, the necking up. If you
go neck down, you're in trouble. Yeah, And they don't
have arms. It's not like you can know their wings
are big though. You just can't use the fly they use.
(35:00):
And like bats, you out a little, but there's no
no armbar, no alma plata. So jiu jitsu's out. Got
all these plans of attack, but you know what happens,
like Mike Tyson's is it all changes Once you get
hit in your mouth, you know what I mean, Like,
there's no telling how quickly that Ostrich is going to
move to hit you with one of its What are
(35:20):
they called? What are they? Are those legs because their
legs are big like legs? Yeah, what's on the bottom?
Are they? Are they called? Are they? What are they like?
Half dinosaur half pigeon? I mean kind of sort of? Yeah, overgrown.
I'm telling you this right now. I don't care who
this offends. I see an Ostrich on the road. I'm
stepping on the gas. I don't. I'm not. I'm not
(35:41):
messing around whatsoever. I'm just saying, if it ever presented itself,
I'm flooring it. I'm not not even taking a chance.
Just killed big bird. No oh no oh no oh, man,
(36:02):
I hate you cauld drive over a noster is too big?
Push gas? You push it? Yeah, that's that's just not nice.
All right? It is um. We're brought to you by
Discover in case, in case you missed it is coming
up here in just a moment. But we could talk
about how complicated other banks make it to redeem credit
(36:22):
card rewards, or we can talk about how it Discover
you can redeem your rewards for cash and any amount
of any time. I mean talk about amazing, learn more,
discover dot com, slash redeemed rewards terms apply. Sometimes you
can't get to everything in the world of sports or entertainment.
Good thing, the guys are here to bring you. In
case you missed it. After that, we turned it over
(36:43):
to our executive producer lead dig Digital Lap. After some
quick research, I found you're supposed to take a stick
to either the neck or the knee of an Austrian.
There you go. After that, just pull a stick off
a tree. So that does stick? What a lie? Probably
you call it a branch. You know, you probably got
a baseball back that bad boy. Probably that tree that
(37:05):
jiversays leans on that. Yeah, that's a good points, a
great point. Maybe is ahead of all of us, you know,
you know he's always got a tree at his disposal. Yeah,
maybe that was an Ostrich in that trash bag in
his back. Maybe he was staring off into an Ostrich
you know, yeah, yeah, that's not true. Guys. In case
(37:26):
you missed this big day yesterday for Jake Thomas, offensive
tackle for the Falcons. He woke up in the morning
of Thursday, Jake Matthews, what did I say post production label.
Clean it. Yeah, we'll clean that up. Reading from a paper, like,
how does that happen? He's guessing. I'm thinking it was
a good guess. Oh you know why, I said, Jake
(37:48):
Thomas because the middle name of his firstborn son is
Thomas Beckett Thomas Matthews, born on Thursday. He actually had
to take a three and a half hour drive to
back home. Uh saw the birth of his firstborn son,
and then got caught a flight with Arthur Blank back
to the game. There's relevance there. I'll let you go.
(38:08):
Did you have a either one? I know Brady didn't.
Did you any of your kids born while you were
playing the Morrow? I had a kid that was born
the day after my best playoff game. It actually the
excitement from how well I played. She went into labor.
I got back home. She went in labor. Literally, I
walked in the door at like three, and the more
(38:28):
the birth tired as hell, I walked into credit for
the birth. I'm taking credit the club. I'm taking credit.
Some people say that you know birth things. I mean
I got her excited. Credit for that. I got them
interceptions and tackles, and we had a baby. Fox Sports

If you were perked up and ready to go, what
do you I was perked up all right back in
his chair. Wasn't here? Are you saying that was a
(02:11):
good day for us to be on radio? Because nobody
could see what the body I think would I think
I went to sleep from the end of the before
the last segment until like the first minute of the
last segment. Like, yeah, it's one of those one of
those weeks where you just your body just says you've
had enough, go ahead and do that. We'll wrap up here,
(02:32):
Like are you sleep right now? You know how you
start hearing voices and it's like, you know, it's like
a dream, but it's real, and then you realized, like
your name is being called like LaVar, LaVar, LaVar, and
then you came back again. I came back yesterday. Yeah,
there's uh. There was a couple of days this week
where I took my nap after the show and I
woke up and had no idea where I was. You
(02:53):
ever had the pool over after the show. I've gotten close.
So one of times I had to. I had to
pull over after the show. So and then and then
I get home and my wife is like, yeah, I
need you to take her to school. So I had
to drive back to Alter. So every stoplight I closed,
(03:17):
I say, baby, when it turns green tail, Daddy, it's great.
By the way, we don't recommend that you got to
be safe. But yeah, but everybody, everybody's been there at
some point where're like, yeah, I gotta I gotta pull
over to the side of road and get get a nap,
or pull over to the side of the road. I
pulled into a parking lot, Like I pulled over and
(03:39):
went into a target parking lot. Yeah, and and got
like a real power Oh I I when I was
driving a cross country from l A to South Carolina
for my first job in radio, I went to I
forget I think it was a Walmart parking lot. I
was so tired and it was. It was kind of
a sketchy party. I didn't even or what stayed I
(04:00):
was in and just pulled over and took a nap
in the parking lot. I could not drive any longer
because it was going to be a problem and I
don't want to flip my truck and the little U
haul trailer. I was a truck right now. Yeah, nobody
was gonna bother you. Yeah, sketchy, they wouldn't bother you
right around. He's here waiting for work today, Like, let
(04:21):
that man be man. I just hit the R trailer,
though that might have hit your trailer. I just hit
the thirty thousand mile mark of that truck. You did
something to talk about cost effection. Yeah, you definitely have
a Sandford and Son. Yeah, it looks bad. I stayed
(04:44):
loyalty about the Carolina Panthers P J Walker getting it
done on Thursday night with his hundred eight yards passing.
Although the Leavisca chanal a touchdown probably should have counted
as a pass it goes down as a run. But nonetheless,
the Carolina Panthers get it done last night and NFC
(05:06):
South Battle and the Carolina Panthers all of a sudden,
maybe are making a little bit of noise in that
NFC South because well, I'm just saying everybody thought Tampa
Bay was going to run away with it. Yeah, they're Carolina,
I think is in a much better spot than a
lot of people anticipated them being at this point in time.
But nonetheless, they get it done. You got Baker Mayfield
(05:27):
headbutting guys. See man that hey, when you watched the game,
when you watched the game on Amazon Prime, like I
watched it on my phone yesterday, do you watch it
on your phone? Do you watch it on like your
screen and pull it up on Amazon prom um it depends.
I watched it on the television last night. I streamed
it on the TV last night, but sometimes I'll watch
(05:47):
it on the phone. It's crazy. Yesterday I watched it
on my phone for the first time, and I kind
of liked the experience. You know, I like the experience,
and you know, I liked it because it had like
the stats they had next in stats running, like how
how much space you create, you know when you're running
a pass route. Um, it was crazy, like all the
(06:08):
stats that that we're being provided for you right underneath
the game. So I'm sitting there watching the live stats
go up while while the game was going on. I
kind of I kind of enjoyed that. Yeah, I mean,
I had it on mute. I didn't listen volume down,
but I enjoyed looking at the game and watching the
stats go up. That's pretty insulting to Al Michaels and
Kirk Curve Street Company. Yeah, and and al Michaels as
(06:32):
well too. But hey, listen, we got ourselves, Uh, we
got ourselves a you know, a fun game last night.
And and uh, Brady Quinn, I know you were fired
up about that game as well too, so so so yeah, Brady,
Quinn is so fired up. He's we're just breaking down
the all twenty two is right now and uh, and
just making sure that we are all good to go
as far as that that conversation. But we're wondering why
(06:53):
I was talking. So I just trying to make sure
we fixed the connection with the que with the Q dog.
I was trying to I trying to vance sage. It
was there. Look, he said, he was there literally through
your head. Now look at perfect city. Not there through
into coverage, just through me, right, the double coverage. All right. So,
(07:15):
so the Carolina Panthers are now sitting they are three
and seven. Uh, they are tie well, they're officially in
last place right now of the NFC South, but they're
just a game and a half back, which is crazy. Yeah,
but that just tells you how bad the NFC South is.
I mean, yeah, it's I mean, you know, it's a
little bit disrespectful to the NFC South. But I mean,
(07:35):
Brady Quitt, I don't know. I think we run to
the sports book right now and lay some money on P. J.
Walker and company to win the NFC South right time.
He come on, aren't you fired up about what happened?
Last night in the rain, those hot black helmets they
rolled out there on a Thursday night game. Let's go
see a little altar alive uniform. What are we gonna
call it? But no, we talked yesterday about man. He's
(07:59):
got a really really cool story for anyone who saw him.
He had like a really productive year at Texas one
yere and then you know he went to Houston, had
a productive year. But he's kind of like floated under
the radar. He's like magically emerged as kind of their
guy after after training away Chritian McCaffrey and it's there's
an age old saying and this sounds awful, and I
(08:22):
do wonder if you guys will agree, But um, running
backs grow on trees in the NFL. You can find
running backs, you can. I'm just sorry. Like we see
all the time guys who weren't the highest drafted guys
undrafted one team to another until to the next, and
they seem to be able to produce. Deontay Foreman was
that guy for the Panthers at least last night. By
(08:44):
the way, Deontay Foreman. For anybody to play fantasy football,
they know this. When the bye weeks came Deontay Foreman
was always a guy that was available for whatever reason.
Nobody wanted any part of him in every league. Always available,
he got somebody on a bye week signed him up.
But you had Christ McCaffrey, Super Hubbard, he had other
running backs were always ahead of him, even on his
(09:05):
own roster. That's not opully surprising. Um, why were they
still running the football when Atlanta only had one time
out left and they got the ball back at that point,
aren't you taking knees and trying to get this game
over with? And they just kept running the football? Were
they trying to pat stats? There was Steve Wilkes trying
to get him, Uh, you know, did he have some
sort of contract that he was trying to fulfill. Did
(09:26):
he have like accelerators or something like that. They were
still running the football late in that game. But nonetheless,
the Atlanta Falcons uh missed opportunity to close some ground
on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who were in Germany this
weekend playing the Seattle Seahawks. And so the NFC South
sitting there three and seven the Carolina Panthers and now
just a game and a half out, which is the
(09:46):
worst record in the NFC South three and seven, and
but but to be right there, to be what you say,
one and a half games, yeah, I think one and
a half. I think I just think that that just
tells you all you need to know. And I'm more curious.
Hold on, I'm just who are the three wins against
(10:07):
the entire division? That's that's far. They've only did their
own divisions so far. It's just it's interesting to me
to look at where Tampa Bay will will end up
like on this side of it, I'm now curious as
to will Tampa Bay assert themselves and pull away or
(10:28):
will they still stay with the pack, because right now
they are a part of the pack. Right, so I
think that that's pretty you know. I mean if the
New Orleans Saints and and the Falcons are right there
on you I mean, the Falcons took a step back
last night, so they're at four Wednesday. They could have
took took over about one game, right if I'm if,
if the math is correct, the Falcons take over first
(10:52):
place if they win last night, um or maybe yes,
yeah that's correct. Yeah, they be a half game up
and then they can't be the worst team in the division.
To be able to take that that lead. You know,
it looks it sounds like the NFC East right now, Yeah,
(11:12):
like the opposite of what it's still competitive cove. By
the way, what about Jonas Knox knowing all the different
scenarios based on who wins or losing in the NFC
South right now and who's leading and who's who's at
the bottom, I mean out of applause, and you know,
I have one question today, Yeah, I just I got
one question though. Why are the Tampa Bay Buccaneers favorite
(11:34):
against Seattle in Germany? Like somebody explained to me why
Tampa Bay would be favorite over Seattle anywhere? Outside of
playing at Tampa Bay. Tom Brady has a lot of
German ties, and there's there's potentially maybe some whole field
advantage there with the you know that the news that's
(11:58):
very good. By the way, is ram Stein gonna be
doing the the Star Spangled banner or their their national
anthem before they go out to the before they I
have no idea what you By the way, Happy Veterans
Day to tell all our veterans out there, you know,
shouts out to you guys, thank you very much. We
really appreciate you guys. So I hope, I hope you
(12:18):
guys are enjoying your day, especially for women. Yeah, yeah,
absolutely so it was Veterans Day, shot to Veterans Day
growing out to my pops, Big Mike, all those guys. Huh,
big deal for you guys growing up day always of course, always,
of course, it's every day is a Veterans Day for
for me though. You know, I enjoyed that. I enjoyed
(12:39):
the whole I did that. I'm a Veterans kid, you know.
I wish I could have served. I don't think I
would have made it though, why not? I don't know, man,
I just I know the stories, like I know the
deep dark details of what you gotta go through to
get prepared, especially if you, like are are not just
you know, a regular every day just soldier, Like you
(13:01):
go in and you want to be like a you know,
like a ranger or a Beret or you know any
of those guys. Like that's bro, that's some serious action, broh,
serious action. So we we we tap something that's gonna
play this weekend, you know, four Veterans Day, and just
act with it like thank you, thank you, thank you.
So it's all the veterans out there for all they've done,
(13:24):
even all our active military for their serving. Eventually they'll
segue into this one day, um you're or hopefully you know,
you know, we're not talking about a memorial for them. Instead,
it's it's obviously their their service that we're appreciative of.
But the point is we were we were out filming
and I was talking with some of the soldiers and
(13:45):
they were saying just about their training. And one of
the things I think as an athlete, like you usually
have a start to finish. However you're training, whatever game,
whatever it is that you're playing, like that's your mindset,
Like you're you're saying, I'm gonna go as long as
hard as need to in order to win this, but
at some point there's gonna be an end to it.
In the trending for a lot of the military, like
(14:07):
when I when I was like talking with these guys
are on the tank. They are in this thing for
hours upon hours upon maybe even days because they're like, look,
there's times when you can't get out of the town.
And when when they were like taking me to the
different compartments, like the guy who drives the tank, that
guy is in the front of a tank, literally in
a coffin. And the scariest thing to me when we
(14:29):
were talking about it, because I was watching the way
the top of the tank rotates. You know, the gun
has to be facing all the way the opposite direction
in order for him to be able to open his
portion of his door to get out. So if there
was ever a fire, if there was anything else like that,
and the gun was inoperable and it was facing forward,
(14:49):
he'd be blocked in, like he's got to find a
way of fishing through just to get out. And so
we were kind of talking about all the different training
and scenarios that they go through. But there you're you're
you've got guys. You've got more guys to a tank.
A guy driving, a guy who's obviously gonna be loading
the big gun up top, a guy who's gonna be
working a machine gun, another guy is gonna be um
basically sighting in, you know, the enemy, and all four
(15:13):
of those guys and are very very small, cramped space
and you're in there for like literally could be days.
And he was saying, they do this like in the
desert in the heat, like try I was going to
through that that is just like claustrophobic, no fan, nothing,
And he was just saying like, that's that's how it is. Man,
it's crazy. I mean the stuff they do to just
(15:35):
to prepare for battle. My dad crazy, my dad. That's
how my dad lost his legs. He was on the tank,
he operated on tank. They got ambushed, and when they
were ambushing him, he jumped to get on to man
the machine gun on top, and the operator didn't know
he was on the tread and pulled off. And while
they're shooting, he's trying to elude, you know, kind of
(15:56):
not get hit, and it's something part of his boot
got into the tread. That's that's how the whole thing,
you know, kind of went so start pulling his boot
into the tread. He had to use his other foot.
Right now, they're moving, right, they're moving, and they're being
shot out there under fire. He had to use his
other foot to try to remove himself and and his
foot got caught into If that tells you how how
(16:18):
much that tread grabs on on those those tanks. So,
I mean he had to watch his leg. His leg
was getting chewed up by the by the tank tread.
So but yeah, that the tank operators and the whole
tank deal, like that is a whole deal. That's a
whole entire deal. But that's like the whole military, Like
for every branch or everything that you do, there's a
(16:40):
whole entire deal, like you know. The one that gets
me the words is watching them have to do the
water exercises and how long they have to stay under
the water, and it's like they're gonna let you pass out.
You're gonna pass out under the water, Like guys are
gonna pass out under the water. They're gonna come get
you and they're gonna revive you, but you're gonna pass
I out undernoe. One of my worst fears always somebody
(17:03):
always used to ask what would be the worst way
to die, falling from heights, burning or drowning. I gotta
say drowning. I mean, I think falling from height would
be kind of jacked up to but I probably would
never be high enough to to die that way outside
of being on a plane. But I mean, just the
things they have to endure in order to be prepared
(17:24):
to go protect our country man. People have no idea
like to queues point you talk about, you know, ah,
we're running laps or we're running wind sprints. Well, you know,
guys get tired and football practice or whatever. You know,
what you do, you slow down your dog it you stop.
You're not allowed to do that. You can't do that
in the military. You gotta go. You gotta go. You
(17:47):
gotta prays. No, there is no option. Your practice is
getting to the doorstep of death every single time out.
Just say, you can prepare for what it'll be like
if it actually happened, man, my god, and then you
gotta go do it. That deployment is not a game, man,
when you get deployed, it's not a game. So for
those who may not know as much as is you
(18:10):
know others do about our military and what our our
armed forces do. You know today you don't have school.
You know, you get an opportunity to have the day
off and in many cases educate yourselves a little bit.
If you know somebody who served, take the time to
tell them you appreciate them. You know, man, get some
get some education on it. Like look it up. You
(18:30):
look a lot of other things up. Look up. What
our military does. You don't have appreciated is some schools
don't have it off. Like, my kids are in school today.
I mean they've missed the past couple of days because
of hurricane or tropical school Tropical Storm Nicole, which I
did give Jonas a lot of updates as far as
the damage. Yeah, it was, it was. It was pretty brutal.
(18:54):
But you know, it's it's sad that you know, they
missed teenags of school. So now regardless that they're trying
to make up today and it's like, well, this is
a dad like I'd want them to go to take
off so they can learn about their father, their grandfather
and them serving. I understand that, you know what that
really means, but unfortunately I don't even know that a
lot of school Steven take it off anymore. Yeah, well
all my kids are. And if they weren't off, they
(19:16):
wouldn't be going in. It's just what it is. Yeah,
they wouldn't be well shouts out obviously, and everybody who served,
um just tremendous. And I don't I don't think any
of us can really relate. And you guys can obviously
growing up with it, but for a lot of us
out there, you know, hearing those stories, it's crazy, man.
So so all the love that they get today is
more than than deserved and uh and we appreciate all
(19:38):
their service and everything they've done for us. Here it

that for year and another edition of incase you missed
it here on Fox Sports Radio. By the way, before
we get to uh, the very latest on the drama
that won't go away in the NFL, we did want
to pay full respect to Veterans Day and all the
(21:03):
veterans out there who protect and serve this country. And
we'd also like to point out that it is also
a football Friday Friday night and mom Jail Friday, Veteran
Veterans Day, Happy day. Here we go Saturday, it is
(21:28):

we just saw Brady Quit on a commercial here on
TV two standing next to Rob Stone right now just
just look, we're looking at it right now. We're on
radio advertising for Yeah, big newon Saturday. Come on man, Yeah,
(21:48):
yeah time, big time. Uh. And by the way, speaking
of big time spread this week it is and uh,
speaking of spread, it's time to stop treating your groins
like junk. Introducing the Gillette Intimate Pubic Hair Trimmer, a
gentle and easy shade from America's number one trusted men's
grooming brand. Show your pubic regions and we're strict with
(22:12):
Gillette Intimate. How did spirit The best a man can get? Okay,
you know that is the best man can get? Sure?
Sure is all right? So, uh, guests, who's back in
the news? The Washington Commando. No, no, yeah, that's right. Yeah,
it's the Washington Commandos. There was reports that there was
(22:33):
going to be a big announcement on Thursday, and so
step right up. It was d C Attorney General Carl
Racine announcing announcing what they have found. What they have
found when it came to the Washington Commandos and the
NFL and Roger Goodell, take it away. What we found,
what the evidence overwhelmingly established, what we will prove in
(22:57):
court is clear wrongdoing and violations of DC residents consumer rights.
The defendants lied about what they knew, and then they
lied about what they were going to do about it,
all in the service of protecting image and profit. We
(23:17):
alleged that the National Football League and its commissioner, Roger Goodell. Mr.
Snyder and the commanders misled the public about what was
being done to address the allegations of harassment and the
toxic culture that the commanders maintained. They did all of
this to hide the truth, protect their images, and let
(23:40):
the profits continue to roll. So there it is. That
was the DC Attorney General car rac And announcing what
they have found. This obviously talking about the NFL basically
covering up the Beth Wilkerson investigation. So the commandos have responded,
uh so, yeah, they they look to establish once and
(24:01):
for all what is fact and what is fiction and
and prove this wrong. The NFL is as spit back
on this report as well too. I'm exhausted by this
whole thing. Are they Are they selling the team or
not selling the team? You're gonna have to sell the
I mean, come on, man, they're gone. That's that's kind
of what my like question is, Like, what's the end game? Yes,
(24:24):
the team? Right? Well, here here's the interesting part of it. Yes,
you got to sell the team. But then how are
you making good on what still lingers in terms of
the damage that that he's done. Like, I know there's
already been settlements, but you would have to assume there's
going to be more settlements, And I mean that's not
you know for me, I know these are kind of
(24:45):
allegations or have come from the reports and stuff like that.
Just think about how much stuff has been left out. Again,
I hate to make it about me, but I'm I'm
I'm a direct product of all this crap that's being
this US. I said that a long time ago, Like
he did that with contracts. He after my contract. They
(25:08):
they they left me on my contract, like they've been
doing crazy stuff. Then there's a lot of stuff that
isn't in the report. I never did any interviews. I
never was was, you know, during a deposition or anything
of any kind. I can't even imagine all the conversations
that I've had with former players that have have been
a part of something that was strangely done, we'll say,
(25:30):
or workplace related. There's so much corruption and and and
so much just nastiness about how things have been done.
And and it's like what happens after they sell it,
Like there has been so much collateral damage done due
to the way things have been done, regardless of if
(25:51):
they want to, you know, contest whether it's true or not.
You gotta believe the the amount of information that has
truth to it, that has validity to it is probably
so overwhelming it's so overwhelming. Like I still those cheerleaders
that were fouling, I'm I'm, I'm pretty cool with one
(26:14):
of one of the ones, the one of the main ones,
and I'll leave her nameless. But they have been fighting
and protesting and fighting. They follow the team around, they
go to the hotels, they go to the gatherings, and
they protest, and they're fighting to have the report released.
And you gotta ask yourself the question, why hasn't the
(26:37):
investigation that the NFL has done, why hasn't the reports
been released? And I tell you, damn. I think the
Attorney General, Carla Seen said that they're not sure the
investigation of their reports gonna be released either. It's bad.
I don't know if that's more of a legal I
don't know if that's the world a legal thing or not.
(26:58):
But I do know the NFL provided and turned over
one point six million documents. So obviously, when when this
when this became public with with Carl Racin's words, the
NFL and Roger Goodell, who are also a part where
I guess I should say that we're in his cross theirs.
It's not just a Washington commandos, it's also the NFL.
It's also Roger Goodell. You know, they basically serve them
(27:22):
back and we're like, you tell us where we what
we did wrong. Here's one point six million documents to
back up our belief on how we've handled this and
how you know, Roger handled this. So this is gonna
be one of those you know, knockdown, drag out fights
that is ultimately gonna cost taxpayers a ton of money
of everything that's gonna go into this. But I think
(27:43):
the team will be sold probably before this will be
sorted out, and then it kind of just leaves you wondering, like,
all right, like what else will come from it at
that point? Or will it finally die down once Dan
Snyder has to sell the team because people still are
going on one, they're going to want compensation for what
him well, because he's gonna sell for what's seven billion? Yeah,
(28:06):
I mean, but they're probably gonna look at it corporately speaking,
they're gonna they're gonna want it from him, but it's
gonna have to go through probably the franchise. So that's
that's I think that that's the whole conversation is how
is that if there's really things to be settled. How
is it going to get settled because he's got to sell.
Like this is the reason why, you see Dan Snyder,
(28:27):
they knew this was coming. They had to have known
this was coming. So now it's like this is on
on the horizon. You better get proactive about moving this team,
and you better let it be made known publicly that
you're moving to to to seek selling this team, like
you better do it now, Like that's that's that has
(28:47):
to be the reason why. Just knowing how Dan Snyder
has been and how he handles things, and how bullish
he is and how he fights like that dude fights
for his He will fight you for what it is
that he wants or what he has Danny, Little Danny.
So for him to be in a situation where he's
he's now conceded, I am going to sell this team.
(29:07):
We're seeking through the bank to sell the team. You
knew this is getting bad. It's going to get it's
going to get so ugly bad detail wise for him
that for the sake of his family, I would assume
you gotta do this. You can't. You can't fight this
is one you can't you can't win. You can't win
this one. So just just take your take it and
(29:31):
go like, get out and go by what a consolation prize.
Here's here's six billion dollars, here's six billion dollars. You know,
could you just go away for a few minutes, like
he's gonna get six billion dollars for this team. That's unbelievable.
So let me listen to uh said, Well, we'll we'll
(29:51):
see how this all shapes up. But now you know,
Ron River is probably gonna be asked about it, and
then the team is probably gonna have to deal with
more of this, and it just drags on and on
and on. It is too Pros and the Cup of
Joe here on Fox Sports Radio coming up next. If
you thought you had a crazy Thursday night, if you
thought you had a lot going on, you've got nothing
in comparison to this guy in the NFL. We'll have
that for you right here on fs ARE be sure

they're playing this before the Bucks and the Seahawks in Germany. Well,

they have the dancing Viking lead him out. Maybe techno Vikings. Yeah,
the guy that looks like Dan Quinn looks blocking like crazy. Yeah.
By the way, you imagine Brady Quinn Dublin coffin high
(31:18):
knowing that he's going to be at the German district
later in Columbus. What's standing at the squat rack? Six
plates each side, tang tang, and he's not even doing
typical squat What do you call district? Yeah? What is that?
(31:41):
What it's called? What's it called in Columbus? Yeah? That
one too? District village? Come on, happened with Jonas? No, listen,
you told me about the when we didn't Now he
hears stuff. He just looks stuff not true. When we
did a show in Columbus, I was like, what's around here?
And one of the places you mentioned was the German
(32:03):
village I remember is not cleaning up post production. It's
fine village district, you know, same difference, not the less.
It is actually a really deep spot. Did you go
there when you were in Columbus? We walked around afterwards.
I don't know if we went there, but we went
to uh we went to a bar in Columbus in
(32:24):
August that still had Christmas lights up, so that what
happens to keep it festival year round. By the way,
if they if they had their Christmas lights up, it
wasn't that they kept them up. Maybe they put them
up early. You don't know that great point, listen. I mean,
it's never too early to start, I guess. I mean,
you know, but people have got Christmas lights up, you know,
in houses in my neighborhood now, which is disgusting. But
(32:48):
you know that's fine. We wanted disrespect and just skip
over Thanksgiving. That's okay. I guess we can. We can
decorate for Thanksgiving, put turkeys. Pumpkin's got a turkey. You
can't do that in Ohio, because something there's gonna be
a twenty two caliber bullet flying through one of those
(33:12):
this time of here. By the way, you shooting give
your a house, think it's a live turkey, a wild
turkey runner. My sister has turkeys at her house. My
sister's got these turkeys that are massive. And you'd be
shocked when a turkey is not fearing for his life
once a year, he'd be shocked how aggressive they are.
They don't care. They'll walk right up to you, not
(33:33):
a care in the world, could don't care. They'll pock
you out. Oh yeah, they don't. You know. I would
assume a peacock is is the cousin to a turkey.
I'm just assuming. But they're the same way. And and
let me tell you something. They'll jack you up there
their their claws or whatever they got, they'll jack you up.
Now it's an ostrich. Also part of the uh is
(33:55):
that part of the family. I don't mess those things.
Those things are big and scary. They'll gore you. They'll
just sty'll rip your intest and they'll do the same
like I'm telling you, peacocks and turkeys will they'll they'll
pack you out. Yeah, hurt even fight at Ostrich. I'm
assuming you just got to try to get a hunch.
(34:17):
You gotta get around body. You gotta try to get
around its neck like that's the most exposed part of it,
I would assume, So you gotta try to wrap yourself
around the neck. Big talents use a rocket launcher. Just
get it over quick, just split that. That's what I'm saying.
If you try to, you can't outrun it. You're not
(34:38):
going to outrun it, and you're not gonna like out.
I don't know. You just got to try to get
because you gotta assume the beak. They don't have teeth,
so they're not going to bite you, right, So you
gotta go for the neck, the necking up. If you
go neck down, you're in trouble. Yeah, And they don't
have arms. It's not like you can know their wings
are big though. You just can't use the fly they use.
(35:00):
And like bats, you out a little, but there's no
no armbar, no alma plata. So jiu jitsu's out. Got
all these plans of attack, but you know what happens,
like Mike Tyson's is it all changes Once you get
hit in your mouth, you know what I mean, Like,
there's no telling how quickly that Ostrich is going to
move to hit you with one of its What are
(35:20):
they called? What are they? Are those legs because their
legs are big like legs? Yeah, what's on the bottom?
Are they? Are they called? Are they? What are they like?
Half dinosaur half pigeon? I mean kind of sort of? Yeah, overgrown.
I'm telling you this right now. I don't care who
this offends. I see an Ostrich on the road. I'm
stepping on the gas. I don't. I'm not. I'm not
(35:41):
messing around whatsoever. I'm just saying, if it ever presented itself,
I'm flooring it. I'm not not even taking a chance.
Just killed big bird. No oh no oh no oh, man,
(36:02):
I hate you cauld drive over a noster is too big?
Push gas? You push it? Yeah, that's that's just not nice.
All right? It is um. We're brought to you by
Discover in case, in case you missed it is coming
up here in just a moment. But we could talk
about how complicated other banks make it to redeem credit
(36:22):
card rewards, or we can talk about how it Discover
you can redeem your rewards for cash and any amount
of any time. I mean talk about amazing, learn more,
discover dot com, slash redeemed rewards terms apply. Sometimes you
can't get to everything in the world of sports or entertainment.
Good thing, the guys are here to bring you. In
case you missed it. After that, we turned it over
(36:43):
to our executive producer lead dig Digital Lap. After some
quick research, I found you're supposed to take a stick
to either the neck or the knee of an Austrian.
There you go. After that, just pull a stick off
a tree. So that does stick? What a lie? Probably
you call it a branch. You know, you probably got
a baseball back that bad boy. Probably that tree that
(37:05):
jiversays leans on that. Yeah, that's a good points, a
great point. Maybe is ahead of all of us, you know,
you know he's always got a tree at his disposal. Yeah,
maybe that was an Ostrich in that trash bag in
his back. Maybe he was staring off into an Ostrich
you know, yeah, yeah, that's not true. Guys. In case
(37:26):
you missed this big day yesterday for Jake Thomas, offensive
tackle for the Falcons. He woke up in the morning
of Thursday, Jake Matthews, what did I say post production label.
Clean it. Yeah, we'll clean that up. Reading from a paper, like,
how does that happen? He's guessing. I'm thinking it was
a good guess. Oh you know why, I said, Jake
(37:48):
Thomas because the middle name of his firstborn son is
Thomas Beckett Thomas Matthews, born on Thursday. He actually had
to take a three and a half hour drive to
back home. Uh saw the birth of his firstborn son,
and then got caught a flight with Arthur Blank back
to the game. There's relevance there. I'll let you go.
(38:08):
Did you have a either one? I know Brady didn't.
Did you any of your kids born while you were
playing the Morrow? I had a kid that was born
the day after my best playoff game. It actually the
excitement from how well I played. She went into labor.
I got back home. She went in labor. Literally, I
walked in the door at like three, and the more
(38:28):
the birth tired as hell, I walked into credit for
the birth. I'm taking credit the club. I'm taking credit.
Some people say that you know birth things. I mean
I got her excited. Credit for that. I got them
interceptions and tackles, and we had a baby. Fox Sports
