Speaker 1 (00:01):
This is the best of two pros and a couple
of Joe with LaVar Arrington Brady Quinn and Jonas Knox
on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
It's going down two pros and a cup of Joe,
Fox Sports Radio. Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with the air.
No LeVar Arrington. He will be back next week. Very
busy man, he's a college football Hall of Famer. But
Brady and I will take you all the way up
until nine am Eastern time, six o'clock Pacific. You can
hang out with us as always on the iHeartRadio app.
You can find us on hundreds of affiliates all across
(00:39):

way tire buying should be, my man. Brady Quinn, Yeah, Yeah,
(01:01):
it's happened in Jhon.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
It's a long time no talk. Yeah, and obviously what
happened yesterday A lot seemed to go on yesterday in
my absence.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
You know, it's weird. For some reason, there was your
name was trending all over Twitter. I don't know what
it was, and I thought, okay, well, could it be like,
you know, an announcement for Big newon kickoff? If they
announced the schedule, like how many more trips to Columbus,
which I'm sure are.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
Going to be fun moving forward? Are there going to be?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I mean, like, what's And then I all of a
sudden saw, well, we've got TMZ, we've got Ryan Clark,
we've got RG three, we've got you name it, everybody
coming out of the woodwork looking for content because they've
run through every other angle on every draft prospect that
we got.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
And so you were at the center of the madness.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
That was one of the most hilarious and dumbest situations
I've seen, which was only it only focused on exactly
how many people don't listen. They actually don't listen, and
they just attack and then try and figure out what
the hell's going on afterwards.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yeah, so let me give people some of the backstory
to I guess what got a lot of attention yesterday
and maybe even the day before, the night before, So
a guy by the name of Dove Climan clemant, however
you pronounce his name some d bag. Okay, don't know
the guy. Never met the guy. He seems to be
(02:25):
really concerned that he lost his blue check mark. So
that kind of tells you all you need to know
about that guy. He took a one minute clip which
he posted from a podcast that I do for CBS,
and what he did was he took out this one
portion of it that he created a misleading headline to
create a narrative about c J. Stroud, and then he
(02:49):
posted it, and I right away said to him, this
is not accurate. You're creating a false narrative of what
was said, not only in the one minute clip if
you who actually took the time to listen to it,
which most people didn't, but even if you listen to
our entire conversation during an hour long podcast. So this
(03:11):
all of a sudden catches legs and then people get
wind of of whatever Dove climbing said Cleman again while
we pronounce it, And from there we start going into
this I guess cycle of an agent for CJ. Stroud
becoming very concerned about it and David Mulugetta. That's why
(03:31):
if you look at a lot of the guys who
started chirping about this yesterday, Quandre Diggs represented by David Mulligetta,
Jalen Ramsey represented by David Mulugetta. C J. Stroud represented
by David Mullagetta. Guy like Ryan Clark, who's in the
industry very close with David Mulugetta. That's not an opinion,
that's fact. You know, he's admitted as much is that
(03:53):
on his podcast and all that. So if you actually
look at what had taken place, was David mouve Get,
an agent for CJ. Stroud, appears to be so concerned
about CJ. Stroud choosing not to go to the Manning
Passing Academy that he felt the need to reach out
to his climents clients and try to create some sort
(04:15):
of Twitter attack, which for anyone who knows me knows
I could give to you know, what's about Twitter or
people's opinion on Twitter. But as you said, all it
did was highlight the fact that no one actually even
took the time to listen to the one minute clip
and understand the context of the conversation. Was I was
(04:38):
asked a question as to why could a player like CJ.
Stroud be dropping at this point in time in the
draft process. And so, as we've talked about on this show,
and I mentioned on the Pick six podcast, I've been there,
I've gone through this, and so I spoke about some
of the things that I went through, and I spoke
(04:59):
about some of the things that I had heard. Now
some are on the field things him. Do you know
his completion percentage of his numbers versus pressure versus clean pocket, which, again,
that doesn't concern me. As I said in the podcast,
even in the one minute clip, he's the most accurate
in this draft class. You know, if there's any concerns
about mobility, he kind of alleviates some of those with
(05:20):
the way he played versus Georgia. And then you hear
people who criticize him about all he plays in the
system where he's got first round line receivers and all
this talent around him. Well, he can't control that. All
he can do is do exactly what he's done and
put himself in a position to go out and ball
out of the week, which is exactly what it said
in the podcast. But none of those were controversial right
until you bring up him deciding not to go to
(05:42):
the Manning Passing Academy, which, by the way, you know
the attacks from people like an RG three. Well, dude,
i can't wait for your book to come out. I'm
so excited about it. And then Ryan Clark, who don't
know me, don't know anything about my integrity or anything
else that I I was as a player, as a person,
as an analyst, all of a sudden start taking that
(06:05):
as a slight to the character of CJ. Stroud. If
either one of those two would have taken the time
to listen to a one minute clip, they would have
heard me literally define it as potentially a smoke screen.
The fact that I don't care about it, that hasn't
been my experience with it. He's been a great young man,
a good leader for that team, and I've watched him
(06:25):
mature of the past couple of years, all of those
even at a one minute clip. But that's the point is,
in today's society, we have people who just don't actually
care to know what the hell they're talking about. And
so here's the unfortunate thing of all of this. CJ.
Stroud gets brought up in a manner where it doesn't
(06:46):
make any sense because as you and I have talked,
have I not mentioned that whole Manning passing academy up before? Yes,
it's not a secret, and I'm not going to blow
the sources that I've talked to, but I've talked to
someone who's directly involved the Manning and passing academy. I've
talked to people who are a part of ESPN, people
who literally reached out yesterday and said, yeah, the these
(07:07):
other guys don't know what they're talking about. And I've
talked to a front office executive about it that said, yeah,
apparently someone was upset about it. Not a great look.
I mean, those are things people say. Ultimately, does it
matter No, And that's why I said he should be
the second quarterback taking the number two overall pick. But
no one listens to that. So, you know, we could
(07:27):
sit here and try to take shots of other people.
That's not my character. You know, If RG three wants
to do that or question things about that, that's his style.
If Ryan Clark wants to do that and continue doing that,
that's his style. I had a chance to speak to
him last night, very civil conversation. We disagree on one
particular thing because I think he's heard, you know, more
(07:48):
from ABCJ. Strouss side. I've heard more from other people
on the other side of that, and that's fine. The
truth's probably some in the middle. But like I said
in the beginning, in the end, who cares if you
are basing your decision on whether now you're taking him
off of that. I mean, you've got bigger problems than
in your decision making process to determine how you go
about finding your quarterback.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
The part that's so funny about it all is that
you talked about this on the air here what a
month and a half ago, Like you mentioned this a
month and a half ago, and it was the same context.
We were having discussions about why what could be the
knock on either of these guys, and the conversation was
about Bryce Young and CJ.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Stroud. For Bryce Young, everybody knew what it was, Well,
it was a size. For CJ.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Stroud, all you did was throw out, you know, maybe
there's a feeling that he might have blown off the
Manning passing Academy and the night before and didn't show up,
and maybe that's we had that conversation. In fact, We've
had that conversation on this show twice, just in talking
about all the other angles of this, and the point
being we're at the point in the draft process where
(08:55):
we've seen all the tape, we've got all the measurables.
Now it's fine a flaw with everybody that that's a prospect.
And all you did was answer a question a what if, like, Hey,
it would be the same thing that we've heard about
Will Levis. Hey, why is Will Levis potentially dropping in
the draft? Well, he's too muscular. We talked about that
as well too. And if I'm not mistaken, you had CJ.
(09:17):
Stroud winning the Heisman?
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Did you not? Wasn't he your pike?
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Like this idea that these guys are coming out of
the woodwork and they're they're taking shots and talking about
just how bad the take was. And he's not research,
he doesn't know anything. I got news for you. Okay,
there's not a single person at ESPN who has been
on site and covered more CJ. Stroud games over the
past couple of years than Brady Quinn. That's not a take,
(09:45):
that's not an opinion, that one hundred percent is a fact.
Big Noon Kickoff is there all the time, you're you're
from the area. Everybody like the idea that you don't
know what you're talking about and have no intel on
CJ's Stroud and aren't complimentary to what he is as
a football player. All you did was answer a question
about what could be the opinion from others on CJ Stroud.
(10:09):
That's it, and then everybody got all super sensitive about it,
and really what I think, I think everybody at ESPN,
those guys specifically ought to cut you a check and
thank you for giving them some content, because apparently they
ran out of material. All that did was highlight everything
that's wrong with social media. And you and I are
on the same page. We've talked about this for a
(10:30):
long time. If I didn't work in radio, I wouldn't
have a Twitter because I think I think all of
it is a giant professional wrestling organization. Everybody's full of crap.
Everybody's me, me, me, It's all a big hype train
for themselves or for buddies of themselves, and it's a
bunch of biased opinions. Yesterday was the full highlight of
(10:52):
everything wrong with it. You got mob mentality, you've got
laziness and you've got fake outrage. That's Twitter that was
highlighted by everybody who jumped in with the take. And
then they're taking shots at you and your integrity. You
could cost him millions. I get news for you. Do
you think the Houston Texans sitting at too are on
(11:13):
the verge of calling C. J. Stroud to negotiate millions
upon millions of dollars of wealth that's going to last
his family for generations And then hung up the phone
mid dial and said, hold on a second. There was
an opinion that came out. Somebody answered a question about
why he could be falling on further review. Upon further review,
we're gonna go ahead and take Will Anderson instead. We
(11:34):
feel like that's a bit just the idea that any
of this matters long term is crazy to me. And
that's everything that played out yesterday is exactly why so
many people are realizing why everybody's full of crap when
it comes to social media.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
The whole thing was no and that's.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Part of it. And look, we joke about things at times.
When we bring up our things racist and all that stuff.
That's the ugly part of this too, is start to
bring race into the conversation like, I'm like, what does
that have to do at all? And I think you know,
my I guess feelings about how people started to then
(12:12):
try to attack me was more in regards to well,
you know, it's the evaluation the character. The way you're
demeaning the character. I'm like, how is that the meaning
of the character? I literally just told you my experience
with the young man and how much praise I have
towards him. Now, Ultimately, if I am hearing from a
front office executive that they are bothered by it or
(12:34):
other people within the industry and it happened, then they say, yeah,
maybe bothered a couple of people. Okay, that was the
decision that he made last time I checked. Wasn't Bryce Young,
there wasn't Anthony Richardon, there weren't other quarterbacks there. They
chose to go. He didn't. Okay, he's got to answer
for that. That's part of this whole process. And in
the end, as you said, it doesn't matter Nick Cassio
(12:55):
or Dimico Ryans, whoever's taking him at two, whoever would
trade up to take him at three with the Arninals
or four if it was Indianapolis. They are not consulting
with me. If it bothers them, it bothers them, and
that's something that you know, him and his agent have
to figure out how to go about doing. But tried
to attack me and my integrity, all right, Like David
(13:17):
Mulugeta has played this card before, he really has. He
just gets a lot of his players that are that
he's that he represents, and he tries to have them
send out a bunch of tweets and they tried to
get that mob mentality. Here's a newsflash for David. I
know a lot of agents within athletes first, all right,
a lot of guys who are up in the top.
I could care less. He's a great agent, he's a
tremendous job for his players. I don't care about Twitter.
(13:40):
And so that's that's what you have to understand. Is
this all came about. The whole origin of this was
some d bag on Twitter who literally crafted this narrative
to create a stir and then he just steps back
and watches the chaos happen. And then you've got an
agent who's in orchestrating and pulling strings all behind it.
That is the truth to all this. Like, if you're
(14:02):
wondering why this whole thing got as wild and crazy
as it did. That's why, that's what's happening behind the scenes,
and it's nuts. It blows my mind that anyone would
literally put that much into Twitter and and and then
obviously again I don't look through mentions and everything else.
I've told you that before because there's no point, because
I'd like to believe in the good and people. And
(14:23):
that's one of the reasons why I called Ryan Clark
last night, and like I said, we have a civil conversation,
you know, kind of just kind of discussed through you know,
obviously the process of how you go about talking about
subjects on air and everything else. And you know you
came came to a civil disagreement, but just say, hey,
all right man, well best of luck, you know, respect
moving forward. But you have to understand this too, is
(14:45):
you know, it wasn't like I've ever attacked, especially on Twitter,
an analyst for how they've conducted himselves or handled himself.
That was what he did. That was what RG three did.
That was what came again motivated back to what an
agent pushing them to do.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I mean, can you imagine there's been some speculation whether
or not Nick Cassario, the GM for the Texans, is
going to be with the team after the draft. Let
me tell you how for sure he won't be with
the team after the draft if it gets out that
they were on the verge of drafting c J. Stroud
And he put the phone down and said, hold on
a second, what did Dove Climbing just tweet? Yeah, no,
(15:22):
not interested. Can we trade back a few spots and
not have a quarterback going into next year like that?
That is that's where we're at when it comes to
the logic behind all this stuff. I don't yeah, and
I don't know who Dove Climbing is. You know, I
actually had a theory on this. I don't know if
you're if you buy into this or not, but I
actually had a theory maybe because I know you were
very concerned about AI. I don't know that anybody's ever
actually seen Dove climbing. So maybe he actually has like
(15:46):
artificial intelligence, Like he's an artificial intelligence.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
He's a bot.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Yeah, like a bot or something like that, you know.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Like that could be maybe he's one of Elon Musk creations.
By the way, at this point, I think that's The
only reason I even have Twitter is to like, even professionally,
like as an analyst. I would love to get rid
of it, but I do find it intriguing what Elon
Musk tweets out. What to say, hilario. I mean, he's
he's he's like appointment Twitter.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
If you need tell you, let me tell you something.
Elon Musk paid. What did he pay for Twitter? I
was a forty billion right, Elon Musk paid forty four
billion dollars to troll trolls.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
That's what he did.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
I don't even know if he's going to get his
return on investment because everybody's panicking over their blue check
marks going away for eight dollars a month. But he
paid forty four billion dollars to troll a bunch of
trolls in a professional wrestling organization known as Twitter. So
good for him. That's called funny money. That's called you know,
I got a little bit to play with, so let
me throw it out there. Yeah, that was that was
(16:50):
wild man. And And by the way, if Ryan Clark
is really insulted by you calling him bub, you should
see some of the stuff he calls me on private
text messages. Ryan Clark all right, if that's gonna insult you,
you can't hang man. That is that's not even that
(17:12):
that that's rookie league stuff. That's that's high A ball stuff.
You're you're not ready for double triple A or even
the major leagues at that point. If that's that insults you,
Being called bub on the air or being called bub
on Twitter is offensive to you. That was the other
part of it that I thought was fantastic.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Well, bub to me is like can be a term
of endearment. By the way I grew up. You know,
people called me Bubby. You know, my dad used to
call me Bubby, And there's a Bubby brister who played
for the Pittsburgh Steelers. So I always would watch, you know,
Bubby whatever he had get in. But it's never been
a negative term. But apparently he feels differently. He doesn't
like being bubbed per se.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
I'm not your Bob. So good, so good.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and
a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Arrington, and
Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
So I Am putting together.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
By the way, for those of you tuning in looking
for the fireworks, we already addressed that last hour. You
can check out the podcast after the show if you
want to hear the response to the Twitter dust up.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
That was one of the.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Most comical situations seen on social media in a long,
long time, and that's saying something for social media.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
But I do if we're going to.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Go down that road here, if we're going to be
a hashtag team Clark, like one of your friends texted in,
I would like to point out I can I do.
I am currently working on a top five most controversial
takes from Brady Quinn since our time working together over
the past six seven years. Yeah, so I am putting
(18:48):
that together.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
That's pretty bad assesome. I'm excited to hear what that is.
So there's been some really controversial takes has been that, Yeah,
Like it's I mean last year was the Jets, right, Yeah,
And I know what's funny about that is it was
very similar to the past kind of day day and
a half where I talked about how the Jets wouldn't
(19:09):
be favored in any of their first nine games and said,
what do they you know, which they weren't, and I
was wrong about that. They actually were favorite. One. I
think it's when they played Denver when Brett Rippon was
announced as the starter instead of Russell Wilson because he
was heard, So I was wrong. They were favored one
of their first nine games, and we talked about kind
(19:31):
of just the difficulty of their schedule, and I wasn't
a big believer maybe Zach Wilson and what he was
gonna be able to do, And you know, I said
they wouldn't five games. No one listened to the fact
that I said they wouldn't five games. All anyone heard
was the whole old nine, like they're gonna go nine,
which I'd never even said that, but that got a
lot of legs, made a lot of Jets fans upset.
(19:53):
They ended up having a seven win season and now
apparently Aaron Rodgers is going to be their next quarterback. Yeah,
I mean, well, very controversial take.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Yeah, I mean listened. I mean, we'll see with Aaron Rodgers.
I mean who knows, I mean, who knows what's gonna
happen with Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
I mean it still saw Allis Campbell, I mean, Klais
Campbell is saying Rogers trying to recruit him to the Jets.
I mean, Rogers isn't even there yet. Campbell's already said
with the Atlanta Falcons. So if he's already recruiting players
to come to the Jets roster, you have to be
thinking of yourself, this is truly a done deal. They're
just waiting for some reason. You know. Maybe it's right
(20:28):
up until Draft night where they make the announcement, and
it creates more intrigue because it's assumed that Bryce Senn's
gonna be a number one pick. So maybe there's not
as much buzz to tune in right away. Maybe that's
one of the way to kind of get things stirring.
I don't know, but it seems like for a lot
of the people involved, like this is already a done deal.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
So, speaking of quarterback news, we do have an update
in Baltimore. If you saw this or not, probably gonna
make some some people in Baltimore happy. The Pro Bowler
is returning.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Tyler Huntley plans to sign his restricted tender on Monday.
That according to Tom Pellasero of the NFL Network. So
Tyler Huntley is back the Pro Bowl quarterback of the
Baltimore Ravens. I believe Tyler Huntley had two touchdown passes
when he was elected to the Pro Bowl last year,
which I got to tell you the state of affairs
when it comes to the Pro Bowl and Pro Bowl voting.
But Tyler Huntley is back for the Baltimore Ravens. Reportedly
(21:23):
after the weekend, it'll become official. So there's that. So
at least if you're a Baltimore raven fan, you've got
some clarity on your quarterback position. So maybe not the
one you want, but Tyler Huntley is back there with
a Ravens.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
It's a great opportunity for him though, because he gets
the chance now to go out there and while Lamar
is not there, you know, continue to kind of build
equity within the organization. You know, whether something happens where
Lamar were to get traded and he went there signed
to an offer sheet with some of their team, whatever
the case may be. I mean, that's the thing about,
you know, playing in the league is you have to take,
(21:57):
when you're the position of Tyler Huntley, every opportunity as
an opportunity to showcase what you're capable of and whether
it's for you know, people within the front office of
that organization who may move on to another organization, or
even the coaching staffs, like the people who are there
now that might move on to the staffs. They're going
to be watching everything you do, and when they have
(22:17):
an opportunity to become a head coach or a coordinator
or be somewhere else, they'll say, you know, we should
go get this Tyler Huntley guy, like he's really you know,
prepared himself. He's done a great job, you know, even
missed all the adversity and all the chaos that was
kind of swirling around what was gonna happen with Lamar.
He was that steady hand that came in there led
the team that will bode well for him moving forward,
(22:39):
you know, showing up signing the tender and handling all this.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
And also doesn't that speak to because this is like
an any walk of life if you guy learned this
early on a radio a guy one of my mentors
told me, he said, whatever you do, like be kind
to the people around you. Don't step on the people
that are below you in the moment, because you never
know when you're gonna have to work with somebody or
run into that person. When you see veteran quarterbacks like
(23:02):
a Blaine Gabbert or some of these other guys who
are continuously in the league for as long as they are. Yes,
it's about the money obviously for them, and potentially the
opportunity to want to compete. But also doesn't that speak
to They've got a great reputation around the NFL. They
probably haven't burned any bridges, and they people want to
work with them, which is why you do see a
(23:24):
guy like Blaine Gabert. We talked about the backup quarterback
position in Kansas City. Who's going to be the guy?
And Blaine Gabbert's going to go from backing up Tom
Brady to backing up Patrick Mahomes. To me, it just
speaks to who he is as a person and as
a teammate, which is why he's getting all those opportunities.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
Yeah, no, I mean, and this goes back to his
time at Utah when you talked to Kyle Whittingham, you know,
he had always conducted himself in a very mature manner
kind of wise beyond his years. He was actually a
south warded kid. There's a number of him and a
couple of our teammates came from one high school all
the way out to Saul Lake, and that was back
when Dennis air And was part of their staff. Who
(24:01):
you know, he obviously had a lot of success during
his time at the University of Miami, But I remember
I remember talking to coaches that I'm like, how in
the heck do you sell guys who grew up in
South Florida who were used to like sunshine and the
beach and like humidity on Salt Lake. Like coming out
to Utah. It blows my mind. And he's like, hey, man,
(24:21):
like you know, a lot of athletes just want the opportunity,
but you'll get guys who I told you I had
talked to a player's brother who was going to see
him play in Nebraska. He had never been outside the
state of Florida. Nebraska offered him at a satellite camp
that was in Orlando, where the coaching staff was at
It was his best offer. He took it. Next thing,
you know, he's living life in Lincoln, Nebraska. I mean,
(24:43):
it's one of the crazy things about football and how
it can impact your life. And Bryce Young kind of
talked about the dynamics of just being a top recruit
versus now being a top draft prospect, and it's like
you have no control over it. And that's the crazy
part is you had control over obs where you got
to pick and getting into college, but now you know,
(25:04):
you know, fortunately or unfortunately in some in some cases,
you were at the mercy of whoever takes you and
and ultimately maybe determining your path. And so it's it's
kind of interesting that that's how it works more in
the NFL. I don't think, obviously it'll ever change where
players have an opportunity to have any sort of choice
unless they want to pull what Eli Manning did, which
(25:25):
I don't know many players that will be willing to
do that and risk that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
By the way, you mentioned Tyler Hontley playing in Florida.
His high school teammate was Zach Moss and he also
went to Utah. In fact, Zach Moss committed to Miami,
the University of Miami, and then changed to go all
the way to Utah to play with Tyler Hotley.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
So there was a wide receiver too that went with him.
His names escaped me at the moment, but there was
also a wide receiver. I think they were there Hollandale.
I think it's where they were high school.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Yeah, yeah, Hollendale Hollandale High School in South Florida.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
Damn, Tyler Huntley at a hell of a high school career.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
He was incredible that squad. I mean, think about that.
I know him and obviously Zach Moss mad at the NFL.
I don't think the wide receiver did. But think about that.
I mean, even a guy on a high school team
that's gonna get a D one scholarship like that, those
are three pieces that should be able to help you
have a lot of success.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
And you know Florida high school football, anytime you're the
Gatorade Football Player of the Year in the state of Florida,
that's saying something because that is a loaded, loaded crop
of players in Florida.
Speaker 4 (26:29):
So that was Tyler Huntley and he's back at the
Baltimore Ravens. So there's that.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Speaking of South Florida quarterbacks, to a tugaby lo, I
just can't catch a break.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
I can't catch a break.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
I mean, he's got a resort to judo lessons during
the offseason, which Mike McDaniel is head coach, called jiu
Jitsu completely different mixed martial art there, completely different martial
art altogether. And so you've got that whole discussion that
was going on. You've got them coming up with new
helmets to try and help protect him, to have talked
(27:00):
about thinking about retirement over the past couple of days
and wanting to, you know, talk with his family, and
they he just realized, I want to keep on playing.
So you thinking to yourself, all right, So all of
this is lining up for two to have a bounce
back year after all the injuries and everything that went
along with last season. And then Tom Brady's got to
step into the conversation and he's speaking at the Emerge
(27:24):
America's Summit or whatever you want to call it on
Thursday and was asked about potentially playing for the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
Here was TB twelve.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Now that I'm not affiliated with any team anymore, and
you and I have strong ties with a couple of teams.
Speaker 5 (27:42):
I do have some friends on the Dolphins that I
really like, so I wouldn't say they say they rooted.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
For them all the time, but I rooted for my friends.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
To do well, and several of.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Them played for Miami, So it's not a no, So
it's not he's not coming back at all. It's just
sort of, hey, you know, I kind of danced around
the topic all together. And so if you're too a Tagobailoa,
you've got to sit with the reality again that Tom
Brady isn't shooting down the idea of playing for the
Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Sucks.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
For two, I feel bad for my guy out of
Saint Louis High School in Honolulu, by the way, speaking
of great high school football powers.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Yeah, it's disgusting. It's it's got to be tough because
he's doing all he can to obviously make sure he's
kind of prepared for next season. I mean, when you
go the route of doing judo or whatever other mixed
martial arts for cross training, I mean, you are really
searching for ways of trying to make sure you can
improve your game at least stay healthy. In this case,
so I feel for him, man, But you know, until
(28:38):
Tom Brady steps into the TV booth, I don't know
that people are going to feel like he's moved on
or has I guess moved on from the game at
least playing. And as he gets older, there's two things
physically and only Tom really knows how he feels every
day when he wakes up. But I've said this forever.
I mean, he's taken better care of his body and
(29:00):
put himself in a position to be able to play
at such a high level at this age. But it
is getting to the point like he's a dad out
there playing with his kids. I mean, look at the
age gap, Like that's not even There's guys who are
twenty one years old in the league right now. Tom
Brady turns forty six this year. I mean it's like
he's probably felt this way for a while, and so
(29:20):
I could only imagine how slow everything feels for him
and how easy he must say, yeah, like I can
go in and play this. It's a child's game. I'm
like the adult on the field, and everything's so slow
and I know it's going to happen and all of that, right, Like,
he's got to feel like he at any point in
time could jump back in mentally, it's just more about physically,
(29:43):
if you would be able to do it, and if
even Miami had the ability to protect them the way
they need to because their offensive line play. If you're
looking at their roster, I mean you might say at
times that was, you know, one of the you know,
maybe more concerning parts of their offense last season.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Yeah, it's going to be interesting to see how Tua responds,
how the changes to the helmet, the judo, all the
other stuff affect his play coming up to next next season.
And then we get a wait to see what the
hell goes on with Tom Brady. So there's all that
fun stuff.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
With all the dust up on social media yesterday when
he got RG three, Ryan Clark, you name it, and
a bunch of losers who spend their time on Twitter
trying to argue on behalf of people that don't care
about them and that they've never met. You thought to yourself,
all right, well that must have been Brady's opinion on
CJ Stroud and reporting on a story he was told
(31:23):
that must have been the hottest take that Brady Quinn
has ever had, in the words of lead course, so
not so fast, my friend, we have got even hotter takes.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
So here we go.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
I've put together a top five list of the hottest
takes of Brady Quinn over the past seven plus years
of working here at Fox Sports Radio. So let's begin.
Number five. IPAs are overrated again. Brady has been on
this train for a couple of years now.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
I agree with that one.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Anytime and IPA is brought up in a conversation, Brady scoffs.
He gives you that that classic Brady Quinn dismissive tone.
Not a fan of IPAs, are you there, Brady Quinn.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
No, I'm not. I will stand by that. I mean
the fact that when IPAs became trendy and like everyone
was like talking about, oh, Di, you tried this ipa.
Oh it's a a triple triple IPA triple distilled. It's
like it got so deep into it, and then all
of a sudden heart Seltzer came in and was just like, yep,
(32:26):
we're gonna just push this on along. And now then
heart Seltzer came to dominate the alcohol market, and now
I don't even know what you'd say it is now.
I mean, a bourbon seems to be like that trendy
thing that like everyone's making a barrel of bourbon. Everyone's
drinking some type of bourbon. They're big, like bourbon fans
out of nowhere. It's just it's all these different trends.
I'm not sure if it's a marketing scheme or what,
(32:46):
but never been a fan of IPAs, pretty much every
every other beer or type of alcohol. I'm all four.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
Number four.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
If you wear golf attire to a golf tournament you're
not playing in, you're a tool. Yes, that is a
belief of Brady Quinn. So if you dress up in
some Dockers and a polo shirt and a Payne Stewart hat.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Hold a plane in a tournament, you're a tool.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
Yes. No, this outfit, okay, this outfit has to include
golf shoes and not even like the ones that are
flats like spikes, Like there are people who actually wear
the entire golf outfit with spikes, almost like they're like
Tiger Woods goes down and they're gonna get taged in
and guess what, Bud Jim from you know, Rhode Island's
(33:32):
now playing for Tiger Woods in the PGA Tour. Like
that's almost like they're the minor league and there's just
there's a chance, like there's a crazy scenario where maybe
the PGA Tour when a player drops out, they'll just
let me come in and take over for a moving forward.
Speaker 4 (33:46):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
That's a good that's a good point for my nephew's
football games this upcoming fall. I think I'm gonna wear
a DonJoy knee brace just in case they call me
out of the stands.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
I think that'll be the go to. Yeah, that's uh
that's that's the that's number four in the list. Number three, Yeah,
number three.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Zach Wilson will be booed out of New York if
he continues to struggle even though he likes older women.
That's right. This made the rounds on social media. We
addressed this earlier, as you pointed out, he can be funny,
popular guy now because he's like he's into older chicks,
but the second he starts to struggle, everybody's going to
(34:27):
point to that as a reason for his failure.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
Yeah. We talked about when that came out, about the
whole milk thing or rumor whatever it was, and I
don't care. It was a good laugh. A lot of
guys still was cool man like Jets fans were behind it.
Some Jets fan might have been actually trying to reach
out to them to hook up with their mom. I
don't know. All I know is that it wasn't going
(34:53):
to bode well for him unless they were going to
win a Super Bowl. He was going to play a really,
really high level. It would be used against him and
be used it's saying he's immature. Distractions and what happened
after the season. You know, people you start to hear
some of that after the season. Oh no, he needs
more time to grow. He needs to get away from football,
you know, he needs to take a break. He needs
this to develop. It's like, well, okay, all those things
(35:15):
may be true, but as we talked about before, when
when you want to highlight the stuff you're doing off
the field, you know more so than what you're doing
on the field, sometimes that stuff can come back to
get you.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
Number two, social media is quote a cesspool. Yes, that
has been the drum that has been pounded by Brady
Quinn over several years here, and I think that's appropriate
considering what has happened the past forty eight hours on Twitter.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
Yeah. I mean, I don't even know if I need
to add to this do that. I mean, it's just
it's kind of self explaana to it.
Speaker 4 (35:46):
It definitely is.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
And finally we get to the very top of the
list again, these are the top five hottest takes from
Brady Quinn over his time here at Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (35:57):
We take it away to number one.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
Number one, hot dogs are gross.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
Yeah that's right.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
Somebody let a little incident from when they were a
child involving orange juice and hot dogs for breakfast to
steer them in the direction of hot dogs or gross.
So if you go to a baseball game this season,
if you're grilling because the weather's getting a little bit nicer,
just know that when you take a bite out of
that nice, juicy frank, that Brady Quinn is vomiting in
his mouth somewhere because he can't stand hot dogs.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
Yeah. So, I mean, you told the backstory as far
as when I was a child. Here's the problem now
now as a parent, it gets hard because my eldest daughter, Sloan,
we were at the ballpark the other day and she
won a hot dog and I was like, oh, man,
like I really would like you to maybe get something else.
But I did promise her that we would go back
(36:49):
because she loved it so much. She loved the experience.
She like kind of eating peanuts and all that. Like
it just the songs that go along in the ballpark.
By the way, just side note like, oh yeah, well
I saw I did it, And she's like, what do
you just do? I go, it's like what you do
at the ballpark? She goes for why I go? I
(37:09):
don't know what you learn. I literally had no idea,
like the origin of that. But anyway, now, part of
baseball is like going out having a hot dog, and
so I next time we go, she's gonna have to
have one. I may throw up. But outside of that, yeah,
I've never been a fan of hot dogs.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
And there it is your top five hottest takes from
Rady Quinn not according to dove on social media.
Speaker 3 (37:34):
So that won't make its rounds, will it? No?
Speaker 2 (37:36):
Probably probably won't make the rounds now because it Scott forbid.
Anybody you know have some funner as a person, somebody
will be offended with some of the content here.

(01:01):
it's happened in Jhon.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
It's a long time no talk. Yeah, and obviously what
happened yesterday A lot seemed to go on yesterday in
my absence.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
You know, it's weird. For some reason, there was your
name was trending all over Twitter. I don't know what
it was, and I thought, okay, well, could it be like,
you know, an announcement for Big newon kickoff? If they
announced the schedule, like how many more trips to Columbus,
which I'm sure are.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
Going to be fun moving forward? Are there going to be?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I mean, like, what's And then I all of a
sudden saw, well, we've got TMZ, we've got Ryan Clark,
we've got RG three, we've got you name it, everybody
coming out of the woodwork looking for content because they've
run through every other angle on every draft prospect that
we got.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
And so you were at the center of the madness.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
That was one of the most hilarious and dumbest situations
I've seen, which was only it only focused on exactly
how many people don't listen. They actually don't listen, and
they just attack and then try and figure out what
the hell's going on afterwards.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yeah, so let me give people some of the backstory
to I guess what got a lot of attention yesterday
and maybe even the day before, the night before, So
a guy by the name of Dove Climan clemant, however
you pronounce his name some d bag. Okay, don't know
the guy. Never met the guy. He seems to be
(02:25):
really concerned that he lost his blue check mark. So
that kind of tells you all you need to know
about that guy. He took a one minute clip which
he posted from a podcast that I do for CBS,
and what he did was he took out this one
portion of it that he created a misleading headline to
create a narrative about c J. Stroud, and then he
(02:49):
posted it, and I right away said to him, this
is not accurate. You're creating a false narrative of what
was said, not only in the one minute clip if
you who actually took the time to listen to it,
which most people didn't, but even if you listen to
our entire conversation during an hour long podcast. So this
(03:11):
all of a sudden catches legs and then people get
wind of of whatever Dove climbing said Cleman again while
we pronounce it, And from there we start going into
this I guess cycle of an agent for CJ. Stroud
becoming very concerned about it and David Mulugetta. That's why
(03:31):
if you look at a lot of the guys who
started chirping about this yesterday, Quandre Diggs represented by David Mulligetta,
Jalen Ramsey represented by David Mulugetta. C J. Stroud represented
by David Mullagetta. Guy like Ryan Clark, who's in the
industry very close with David Mulugetta. That's not an opinion,
that's fact. You know, he's admitted as much is that
(03:53):
on his podcast and all that. So if you actually
look at what had taken place, was David mouve Get,
an agent for CJ. Stroud, appears to be so concerned
about CJ. Stroud choosing not to go to the Manning
Passing Academy that he felt the need to reach out
to his climents clients and try to create some sort
(04:15):
of Twitter attack, which for anyone who knows me knows
I could give to you know, what's about Twitter or
people's opinion on Twitter. But as you said, all it
did was highlight the fact that no one actually even
took the time to listen to the one minute clip
and understand the context of the conversation. Was I was
(04:38):
asked a question as to why could a player like CJ.
Stroud be dropping at this point in time in the
draft process. And so, as we've talked about on this show,
and I mentioned on the Pick six podcast, I've been there,
I've gone through this, and so I spoke about some
of the things that I went through, and I spoke
(04:59):
about some of the things that I had heard. Now
some are on the field things him. Do you know
his completion percentage of his numbers versus pressure versus clean pocket, which, again,
that doesn't concern me. As I said in the podcast,
even in the one minute clip, he's the most accurate
in this draft class. You know, if there's any concerns
about mobility, he kind of alleviates some of those with
(05:20):
the way he played versus Georgia. And then you hear
people who criticize him about all he plays in the
system where he's got first round line receivers and all
this talent around him. Well, he can't control that. All
he can do is do exactly what he's done and
put himself in a position to go out and ball
out of the week, which is exactly what it said
in the podcast. But none of those were controversial right
until you bring up him deciding not to go to
(05:42):
the Manning Passing Academy, which, by the way, you know
the attacks from people like an RG three. Well, dude,
i can't wait for your book to come out. I'm
so excited about it. And then Ryan Clark, who don't
know me, don't know anything about my integrity or anything
else that I I was as a player, as a person,
as an analyst, all of a sudden start taking that
(06:05):
as a slight to the character of CJ. Stroud. If
either one of those two would have taken the time
to listen to a one minute clip, they would have
heard me literally define it as potentially a smoke screen.
The fact that I don't care about it, that hasn't
been my experience with it. He's been a great young man,
a good leader for that team, and I've watched him
(06:25):
mature of the past couple of years, all of those
even at a one minute clip. But that's the point is,
in today's society, we have people who just don't actually
care to know what the hell they're talking about. And
so here's the unfortunate thing of all of this. CJ.
Stroud gets brought up in a manner where it doesn't
(06:46):
make any sense because as you and I have talked,
have I not mentioned that whole Manning passing academy up before? Yes,
it's not a secret, and I'm not going to blow
the sources that I've talked to, but I've talked to
someone who's directly involved the Manning and passing academy. I've
talked to people who are a part of ESPN, people
who literally reached out yesterday and said, yeah, the these
(07:07):
other guys don't know what they're talking about. And I've
talked to a front office executive about it that said, yeah,
apparently someone was upset about it. Not a great look.
I mean, those are things people say. Ultimately, does it
matter No, And that's why I said he should be
the second quarterback taking the number two overall pick. But
no one listens to that. So, you know, we could
(07:27):
sit here and try to take shots of other people.
That's not my character. You know, If RG three wants
to do that or question things about that, that's his style.
If Ryan Clark wants to do that and continue doing that,
that's his style. I had a chance to speak to
him last night, very civil conversation. We disagree on one
particular thing because I think he's heard, you know, more
(07:48):
from ABCJ. Strouss side. I've heard more from other people
on the other side of that, and that's fine. The
truth's probably some in the middle. But like I said
in the beginning, in the end, who cares if you
are basing your decision on whether now you're taking him
off of that. I mean, you've got bigger problems than
in your decision making process to determine how you go
about finding your quarterback.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
The part that's so funny about it all is that
you talked about this on the air here what a
month and a half ago, Like you mentioned this a
month and a half ago, and it was the same context.
We were having discussions about why what could be the
knock on either of these guys, and the conversation was
about Bryce Young and CJ.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Stroud. For Bryce Young, everybody knew what it was, Well,
it was a size. For CJ.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Stroud, all you did was throw out, you know, maybe
there's a feeling that he might have blown off the
Manning passing Academy and the night before and didn't show up,
and maybe that's we had that conversation. In fact, We've
had that conversation on this show twice, just in talking
about all the other angles of this, and the point
being we're at the point in the draft process where
(08:55):
we've seen all the tape, we've got all the measurables.
Now it's fine a flaw with everybody that that's a prospect.
And all you did was answer a question a what if, like, Hey,
it would be the same thing that we've heard about
Will Levis. Hey, why is Will Levis potentially dropping in
the draft? Well, he's too muscular. We talked about that
as well too. And if I'm not mistaken, you had CJ.
(09:17):
Stroud winning the Heisman?
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Did you not? Wasn't he your pike?
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Like this idea that these guys are coming out of
the woodwork and they're they're taking shots and talking about
just how bad the take was. And he's not research,
he doesn't know anything. I got news for you. Okay,
there's not a single person at ESPN who has been
on site and covered more CJ. Stroud games over the
past couple of years than Brady Quinn. That's not a take,
(09:45):
that's not an opinion, that one hundred percent is a fact.
Big Noon Kickoff is there all the time, you're you're
from the area. Everybody like the idea that you don't
know what you're talking about and have no intel on
CJ's Stroud and aren't complimentary to what he is as
a football player. All you did was answer a question
about what could be the opinion from others on CJ Stroud.
(10:09):
That's it, and then everybody got all super sensitive about it,
and really what I think, I think everybody at ESPN,
those guys specifically ought to cut you a check and
thank you for giving them some content, because apparently they
ran out of material. All that did was highlight everything
that's wrong with social media. And you and I are
on the same page. We've talked about this for a
(10:30):
long time. If I didn't work in radio, I wouldn't
have a Twitter because I think I think all of
it is a giant professional wrestling organization. Everybody's full of crap.
Everybody's me, me, me, It's all a big hype train
for themselves or for buddies of themselves, and it's a
bunch of biased opinions. Yesterday was the full highlight of
(10:52):
everything wrong with it. You got mob mentality, you've got
laziness and you've got fake outrage. That's Twitter that was
highlighted by everybody who jumped in with the take. And
then they're taking shots at you and your integrity. You
could cost him millions. I get news for you. Do
you think the Houston Texans sitting at too are on
(11:13):
the verge of calling C. J. Stroud to negotiate millions
upon millions of dollars of wealth that's going to last
his family for generations And then hung up the phone
mid dial and said, hold on a second. There was
an opinion that came out. Somebody answered a question about
why he could be falling on further review. Upon further review,
we're gonna go ahead and take Will Anderson instead. We
(11:34):
feel like that's a bit just the idea that any
of this matters long term is crazy to me. And
that's everything that played out yesterday is exactly why so
many people are realizing why everybody's full of crap when
it comes to social media.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
The whole thing was no and that's.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Part of it. And look, we joke about things at times.
When we bring up our things racist and all that stuff.
That's the ugly part of this too, is start to
bring race into the conversation like, I'm like, what does
that have to do at all? And I think you know,
my I guess feelings about how people started to then
(12:12):
try to attack me was more in regards to well,
you know, it's the evaluation the character. The way you're
demeaning the character. I'm like, how is that the meaning
of the character? I literally just told you my experience
with the young man and how much praise I have
towards him. Now, Ultimately, if I am hearing from a
front office executive that they are bothered by it or
(12:34):
other people within the industry and it happened, then they say, yeah,
maybe bothered a couple of people. Okay, that was the
decision that he made last time I checked. Wasn't Bryce Young,
there wasn't Anthony Richardon, there weren't other quarterbacks there. They
chose to go. He didn't. Okay, he's got to answer
for that. That's part of this whole process. And in
the end, as you said, it doesn't matter Nick Cassio
(12:55):
or Dimico Ryans, whoever's taking him at two, whoever would
trade up to take him at three with the Arninals
or four if it was Indianapolis. They are not consulting
with me. If it bothers them, it bothers them, and
that's something that you know, him and his agent have
to figure out how to go about doing. But tried
to attack me and my integrity, all right, Like David
(13:17):
Mulugeta has played this card before, he really has. He
just gets a lot of his players that are that
he's that he represents, and he tries to have them
send out a bunch of tweets and they tried to
get that mob mentality. Here's a newsflash for David. I
know a lot of agents within athletes first, all right,
a lot of guys who are up in the top.
I could care less. He's a great agent, he's a
tremendous job for his players. I don't care about Twitter.
(13:40):
And so that's that's what you have to understand. Is
this all came about. The whole origin of this was
some d bag on Twitter who literally crafted this narrative
to create a stir and then he just steps back
and watches the chaos happen. And then you've got an
agent who's in orchestrating and pulling strings all behind it.
That is the truth to all this. Like, if you're
(14:02):
wondering why this whole thing got as wild and crazy
as it did. That's why, that's what's happening behind the scenes,
and it's nuts. It blows my mind that anyone would
literally put that much into Twitter and and and then
obviously again I don't look through mentions and everything else.
I've told you that before because there's no point, because
I'd like to believe in the good and people. And
(14:23):
that's one of the reasons why I called Ryan Clark
last night, and like I said, we have a civil conversation,
you know, kind of just kind of discussed through you know,
obviously the process of how you go about talking about
subjects on air and everything else. And you know you
came came to a civil disagreement, but just say, hey,
all right man, well best of luck, you know, respect
moving forward. But you have to understand this too, is
(14:45):
you know, it wasn't like I've ever attacked, especially on Twitter,
an analyst for how they've conducted himselves or handled himself.
That was what he did. That was what RG three did.
That was what came again motivated back to what an
agent pushing them to do.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I mean, can you imagine there's been some speculation whether
or not Nick Cassario, the GM for the Texans, is
going to be with the team after the draft. Let
me tell you how for sure he won't be with
the team after the draft if it gets out that
they were on the verge of drafting c J. Stroud
And he put the phone down and said, hold on
a second, what did Dove Climbing just tweet? Yeah, no,
(15:22):
not interested. Can we trade back a few spots and
not have a quarterback going into next year like that?
That is that's where we're at when it comes to
the logic behind all this stuff. I don't yeah, and
I don't know who Dove Climbing is. You know, I
actually had a theory on this. I don't know if
you're if you buy into this or not, but I
actually had a theory maybe because I know you were
very concerned about AI. I don't know that anybody's ever
actually seen Dove climbing. So maybe he actually has like
(15:46):
artificial intelligence, Like he's an artificial intelligence.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
He's a bot.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Yeah, like a bot or something like that, you know.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Like that could be maybe he's one of Elon Musk creations.
By the way, at this point, I think that's The
only reason I even have Twitter is to like, even professionally,
like as an analyst. I would love to get rid
of it, but I do find it intriguing what Elon
Musk tweets out. What to say, hilario. I mean, he's
he's he's like appointment Twitter.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
If you need tell you, let me tell you something.
Elon Musk paid. What did he pay for Twitter? I
was a forty billion right, Elon Musk paid forty four
billion dollars to troll trolls.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
That's what he did.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
I don't even know if he's going to get his
return on investment because everybody's panicking over their blue check
marks going away for eight dollars a month. But he
paid forty four billion dollars to troll a bunch of
trolls in a professional wrestling organization known as Twitter. So
good for him. That's called funny money. That's called you know,
I got a little bit to play with, so let
me throw it out there. Yeah, that was that was
(16:50):
wild man. And And by the way, if Ryan Clark
is really insulted by you calling him bub, you should
see some of the stuff he calls me on private
text messages. Ryan Clark all right, if that's gonna insult you,
you can't hang man. That is that's not even that
(17:12):
that that's rookie league stuff. That's that's high A ball stuff.
You're you're not ready for double triple A or even
the major leagues at that point. If that's that insults you,
Being called bub on the air or being called bub
on Twitter is offensive to you. That was the other
part of it that I thought was fantastic.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Well, bub to me is like can be a term
of endearment. By the way I grew up. You know,
people called me Bubby. You know, my dad used to
call me Bubby, And there's a Bubby brister who played
for the Pittsburgh Steelers. So I always would watch, you know,
Bubby whatever he had get in. But it's never been
a negative term. But apparently he feels differently. He doesn't
like being bubbed per se.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
I'm not your Bob. So good, so good.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and
a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Arrington, and
Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
So I Am putting together.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
By the way, for those of you tuning in looking
for the fireworks, we already addressed that last hour. You
can check out the podcast after the show if you
want to hear the response to the Twitter dust up.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
That was one of the.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Most comical situations seen on social media in a long,
long time, and that's saying something for social media.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
But I do if we're going to.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Go down that road here, if we're going to be
a hashtag team Clark, like one of your friends texted in,
I would like to point out I can I do.
I am currently working on a top five most controversial
takes from Brady Quinn since our time working together over
the past six seven years. Yeah, so I am putting
(18:48):
that together.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
That's pretty bad assesome. I'm excited to hear what that is.
So there's been some really controversial takes has been that, Yeah,
Like it's I mean last year was the Jets, right, Yeah,
And I know what's funny about that is it was
very similar to the past kind of day day and
a half where I talked about how the Jets wouldn't
(19:09):
be favored in any of their first nine games and said,
what do they you know, which they weren't, and I
was wrong about that. They actually were favorite. One. I
think it's when they played Denver when Brett Rippon was
announced as the starter instead of Russell Wilson because he
was heard, So I was wrong. They were favored one
of their first nine games, and we talked about kind
(19:31):
of just the difficulty of their schedule, and I wasn't
a big believer maybe Zach Wilson and what he was
gonna be able to do, And you know, I said
they wouldn't five games. No one listened to the fact
that I said they wouldn't five games. All anyone heard
was the whole old nine, like they're gonna go nine,
which I'd never even said that, but that got a
lot of legs, made a lot of Jets fans upset.
(19:53):
They ended up having a seven win season and now
apparently Aaron Rodgers is going to be their next quarterback. Yeah,
I mean, well, very controversial take.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Yeah, I mean listened. I mean, we'll see with Aaron Rodgers.
I mean who knows, I mean, who knows what's gonna
happen with Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
I mean it still saw Allis Campbell, I mean, Klais
Campbell is saying Rogers trying to recruit him to the Jets.
I mean, Rogers isn't even there yet. Campbell's already said
with the Atlanta Falcons. So if he's already recruiting players
to come to the Jets roster, you have to be
thinking of yourself, this is truly a done deal. They're
just waiting for some reason. You know. Maybe it's right
(20:28):
up until Draft night where they make the announcement, and
it creates more intrigue because it's assumed that Bryce Senn's
gonna be a number one pick. So maybe there's not
as much buzz to tune in right away. Maybe that's
one of the way to kind of get things stirring.
I don't know, but it seems like for a lot
of the people involved, like this is already a done deal.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
So, speaking of quarterback news, we do have an update
in Baltimore. If you saw this or not, probably gonna
make some some people in Baltimore happy. The Pro Bowler
is returning.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Tyler Huntley plans to sign his restricted tender on Monday.
That according to Tom Pellasero of the NFL Network. So
Tyler Huntley is back the Pro Bowl quarterback of the
Baltimore Ravens. I believe Tyler Huntley had two touchdown passes
when he was elected to the Pro Bowl last year,
which I got to tell you the state of affairs
when it comes to the Pro Bowl and Pro Bowl voting.
But Tyler Huntley is back for the Baltimore Ravens. Reportedly
(21:23):
after the weekend, it'll become official. So there's that. So
at least if you're a Baltimore raven fan, you've got
some clarity on your quarterback position. So maybe not the
one you want, but Tyler Huntley is back there with
a Ravens.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
It's a great opportunity for him though, because he gets
the chance now to go out there and while Lamar
is not there, you know, continue to kind of build
equity within the organization. You know, whether something happens where
Lamar were to get traded and he went there signed
to an offer sheet with some of their team, whatever
the case may be. I mean, that's the thing about,
you know, playing in the league is you have to take,
(21:57):
when you're the position of Tyler Huntley, every opportunity as
an opportunity to showcase what you're capable of and whether
it's for you know, people within the front office of
that organization who may move on to another organization, or
even the coaching staffs, like the people who are there
now that might move on to the staffs. They're going
to be watching everything you do, and when they have
(22:17):
an opportunity to become a head coach or a coordinator
or be somewhere else, they'll say, you know, we should
go get this Tyler Huntley guy, like he's really you know,
prepared himself. He's done a great job, you know, even
missed all the adversity and all the chaos that was
kind of swirling around what was gonna happen with Lamar.
He was that steady hand that came in there led
the team that will bode well for him moving forward,
(22:39):
you know, showing up signing the tender and handling all this.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
And also doesn't that speak to because this is like
an any walk of life if you guy learned this
early on a radio a guy one of my mentors
told me, he said, whatever you do, like be kind
to the people around you. Don't step on the people
that are below you in the moment, because you never
know when you're gonna have to work with somebody or
run into that person. When you see veteran quarterbacks like
(23:02):
a Blaine Gabbert or some of these other guys who
are continuously in the league for as long as they are. Yes,
it's about the money obviously for them, and potentially the
opportunity to want to compete. But also doesn't that speak
to They've got a great reputation around the NFL. They
probably haven't burned any bridges, and they people want to
work with them, which is why you do see a
(23:24):
guy like Blaine Gabert. We talked about the backup quarterback
position in Kansas City. Who's going to be the guy?
And Blaine Gabbert's going to go from backing up Tom
Brady to backing up Patrick Mahomes. To me, it just
speaks to who he is as a person and as
a teammate, which is why he's getting all those opportunities.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
Yeah, no, I mean, and this goes back to his
time at Utah when you talked to Kyle Whittingham, you know,
he had always conducted himself in a very mature manner
kind of wise beyond his years. He was actually a
south warded kid. There's a number of him and a
couple of our teammates came from one high school all
the way out to Saul Lake, and that was back
when Dennis air And was part of their staff. Who
(24:01):
you know, he obviously had a lot of success during
his time at the University of Miami, But I remember
I remember talking to coaches that I'm like, how in
the heck do you sell guys who grew up in
South Florida who were used to like sunshine and the
beach and like humidity on Salt Lake. Like coming out
to Utah. It blows my mind. And he's like, hey, man,
(24:21):
like you know, a lot of athletes just want the opportunity,
but you'll get guys who I told you I had
talked to a player's brother who was going to see
him play in Nebraska. He had never been outside the
state of Florida. Nebraska offered him at a satellite camp
that was in Orlando, where the coaching staff was at
It was his best offer. He took it. Next thing,
you know, he's living life in Lincoln, Nebraska. I mean,
(24:43):
it's one of the crazy things about football and how
it can impact your life. And Bryce Young kind of
talked about the dynamics of just being a top recruit
versus now being a top draft prospect, and it's like
you have no control over it. And that's the crazy
part is you had control over obs where you got
to pick and getting into college, but now you know,
(25:04):
you know, fortunately or unfortunately in some in some cases,
you were at the mercy of whoever takes you and
and ultimately maybe determining your path. And so it's it's
kind of interesting that that's how it works more in
the NFL. I don't think, obviously it'll ever change where
players have an opportunity to have any sort of choice
unless they want to pull what Eli Manning did, which
(25:25):
I don't know many players that will be willing to
do that and risk that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
By the way, you mentioned Tyler Hontley playing in Florida.
His high school teammate was Zach Moss and he also
went to Utah. In fact, Zach Moss committed to Miami,
the University of Miami, and then changed to go all
the way to Utah to play with Tyler Hotley.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
So there was a wide receiver too that went with him.
His names escaped me at the moment, but there was
also a wide receiver. I think they were there Hollandale.
I think it's where they were high school.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Yeah, yeah, Hollendale Hollandale High School in South Florida.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
Damn, Tyler Huntley at a hell of a high school career.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
He was incredible that squad. I mean, think about that.
I know him and obviously Zach Moss mad at the NFL.
I don't think the wide receiver did. But think about that.
I mean, even a guy on a high school team
that's gonna get a D one scholarship like that, those
are three pieces that should be able to help you
have a lot of success.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
And you know Florida high school football, anytime you're the
Gatorade Football Player of the Year in the state of Florida,
that's saying something because that is a loaded, loaded crop
of players in Florida.
Speaker 4 (26:29):
So that was Tyler Huntley and he's back at the
Baltimore Ravens. So there's that.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Speaking of South Florida quarterbacks, to a tugaby lo, I
just can't catch a break.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
I can't catch a break.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
I mean, he's got a resort to judo lessons during
the offseason, which Mike McDaniel is head coach, called jiu
Jitsu completely different mixed martial art there, completely different martial
art altogether. And so you've got that whole discussion that
was going on. You've got them coming up with new
helmets to try and help protect him, to have talked
(27:00):
about thinking about retirement over the past couple of days
and wanting to, you know, talk with his family, and
they he just realized, I want to keep on playing.
So you thinking to yourself, all right, So all of
this is lining up for two to have a bounce
back year after all the injuries and everything that went
along with last season. And then Tom Brady's got to
step into the conversation and he's speaking at the Emerge
(27:24):
America's Summit or whatever you want to call it on
Thursday and was asked about potentially playing for the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
Here was TB twelve.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Now that I'm not affiliated with any team anymore, and
you and I have strong ties with a couple of teams.
Speaker 5 (27:42):
I do have some friends on the Dolphins that I
really like, so I wouldn't say they say they rooted.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
For them all the time, but I rooted for my friends.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
To do well, and several of.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Them played for Miami, So it's not a no, So
it's not he's not coming back at all. It's just
sort of, hey, you know, I kind of danced around
the topic all together. And so if you're too a Tagobailoa,
you've got to sit with the reality again that Tom
Brady isn't shooting down the idea of playing for the
Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Sucks.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
For two, I feel bad for my guy out of
Saint Louis High School in Honolulu, by the way, speaking
of great high school football powers.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Yeah, it's disgusting. It's it's got to be tough because
he's doing all he can to obviously make sure he's
kind of prepared for next season. I mean, when you
go the route of doing judo or whatever other mixed
martial arts for cross training, I mean, you are really
searching for ways of trying to make sure you can
improve your game at least stay healthy. In this case,
so I feel for him, man, But you know, until
(28:38):
Tom Brady steps into the TV booth, I don't know
that people are going to feel like he's moved on
or has I guess moved on from the game at
least playing. And as he gets older, there's two things
physically and only Tom really knows how he feels every
day when he wakes up. But I've said this forever.
I mean, he's taken better care of his body and
(29:00):
put himself in a position to be able to play
at such a high level at this age. But it
is getting to the point like he's a dad out
there playing with his kids. I mean, look at the
age gap, Like that's not even There's guys who are
twenty one years old in the league right now. Tom
Brady turns forty six this year. I mean it's like
he's probably felt this way for a while, and so
(29:20):
I could only imagine how slow everything feels for him
and how easy he must say, yeah, like I can
go in and play this. It's a child's game. I'm
like the adult on the field, and everything's so slow
and I know it's going to happen and all of that, right, Like,
he's got to feel like he at any point in
time could jump back in mentally, it's just more about physically,
(29:43):
if you would be able to do it, and if
even Miami had the ability to protect them the way
they need to because their offensive line play. If you're
looking at their roster, I mean you might say at
times that was, you know, one of the you know,
maybe more concerning parts of their offense last season.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Yeah, it's going to be interesting to see how Tua responds,
how the changes to the helmet, the judo, all the
other stuff affect his play coming up to next next season.
And then we get a wait to see what the
hell goes on with Tom Brady. So there's all that
fun stuff.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
With all the dust up on social media yesterday when
he got RG three, Ryan Clark, you name it, and
a bunch of losers who spend their time on Twitter
trying to argue on behalf of people that don't care
about them and that they've never met. You thought to yourself,
all right, well that must have been Brady's opinion on
CJ Stroud and reporting on a story he was told
(31:23):
that must have been the hottest take that Brady Quinn
has ever had, in the words of lead course, so
not so fast, my friend, we have got even hotter takes.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
So here we go.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
I've put together a top five list of the hottest
takes of Brady Quinn over the past seven plus years
of working here at Fox Sports Radio. So let's begin.
Number five. IPAs are overrated again. Brady has been on
this train for a couple of years now.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
I agree with that one.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Anytime and IPA is brought up in a conversation, Brady scoffs.
He gives you that that classic Brady Quinn dismissive tone.
Not a fan of IPAs, are you there, Brady Quinn.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
No, I'm not. I will stand by that. I mean
the fact that when IPAs became trendy and like everyone
was like talking about, oh, Di, you tried this ipa.
Oh it's a a triple triple IPA triple distilled. It's
like it got so deep into it, and then all
of a sudden heart Seltzer came in and was just like, yep,
(32:26):
we're gonna just push this on along. And now then
heart Seltzer came to dominate the alcohol market, and now
I don't even know what you'd say it is now.
I mean, a bourbon seems to be like that trendy
thing that like everyone's making a barrel of bourbon. Everyone's
drinking some type of bourbon. They're big, like bourbon fans
out of nowhere. It's just it's all these different trends.
I'm not sure if it's a marketing scheme or what,
(32:46):
but never been a fan of IPAs, pretty much every
every other beer or type of alcohol. I'm all four.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
Number four.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
If you wear golf attire to a golf tournament you're
not playing in, you're a tool. Yes, that is a
belief of Brady Quinn. So if you dress up in
some Dockers and a polo shirt and a Payne Stewart hat.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Hold a plane in a tournament, you're a tool.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
Yes. No, this outfit, okay, this outfit has to include
golf shoes and not even like the ones that are
flats like spikes, Like there are people who actually wear
the entire golf outfit with spikes, almost like they're like
Tiger Woods goes down and they're gonna get taged in
and guess what, Bud Jim from you know, Rhode Island's
(33:32):
now playing for Tiger Woods in the PGA Tour. Like
that's almost like they're the minor league and there's just
there's a chance, like there's a crazy scenario where maybe
the PGA Tour when a player drops out, they'll just
let me come in and take over for a moving forward.
Speaker 4 (33:46):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
That's a good that's a good point for my nephew's
football games this upcoming fall. I think I'm gonna wear
a DonJoy knee brace just in case they call me
out of the stands.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
I think that'll be the go to. Yeah, that's uh
that's that's the that's number four in the list. Number three, Yeah,
number three.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Zach Wilson will be booed out of New York if
he continues to struggle even though he likes older women.
That's right. This made the rounds on social media. We
addressed this earlier, as you pointed out, he can be funny,
popular guy now because he's like he's into older chicks,
but the second he starts to struggle, everybody's going to
(34:27):
point to that as a reason for his failure.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
Yeah. We talked about when that came out, about the
whole milk thing or rumor whatever it was, and I
don't care. It was a good laugh. A lot of
guys still was cool man like Jets fans were behind it.
Some Jets fan might have been actually trying to reach
out to them to hook up with their mom. I
don't know. All I know is that it wasn't going
(34:53):
to bode well for him unless they were going to
win a Super Bowl. He was going to play a really,
really high level. It would be used against him and
be used it's saying he's immature. Distractions and what happened
after the season. You know, people you start to hear
some of that after the season. Oh no, he needs
more time to grow. He needs to get away from football,
you know, he needs to take a break. He needs
this to develop. It's like, well, okay, all those things
(35:15):
may be true, but as we talked about before, when
when you want to highlight the stuff you're doing off
the field, you know more so than what you're doing
on the field, sometimes that stuff can come back to
get you.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
Number two, social media is quote a cesspool. Yes, that
has been the drum that has been pounded by Brady
Quinn over several years here, and I think that's appropriate
considering what has happened the past forty eight hours on Twitter.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
Yeah. I mean, I don't even know if I need
to add to this do that. I mean, it's just
it's kind of self explaana to it.
Speaker 4 (35:46):
It definitely is.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
And finally we get to the very top of the
list again, these are the top five hottest takes from
Brady Quinn over his time here at Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (35:57):
We take it away to number one.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
Number one, hot dogs are gross.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
Yeah that's right.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
Somebody let a little incident from when they were a
child involving orange juice and hot dogs for breakfast to
steer them in the direction of hot dogs or gross.
So if you go to a baseball game this season,
if you're grilling because the weather's getting a little bit nicer,
just know that when you take a bite out of
that nice, juicy frank, that Brady Quinn is vomiting in
his mouth somewhere because he can't stand hot dogs.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
Yeah. So, I mean, you told the backstory as far
as when I was a child. Here's the problem now
now as a parent, it gets hard because my eldest daughter, Sloan,
we were at the ballpark the other day and she
won a hot dog and I was like, oh, man,
like I really would like you to maybe get something else.
But I did promise her that we would go back
(36:49):
because she loved it so much. She loved the experience.
She like kind of eating peanuts and all that. Like
it just the songs that go along in the ballpark.
By the way, just side note like, oh yeah, well
I saw I did it, And she's like, what do
you just do? I go, it's like what you do
at the ballpark? She goes for why I go? I
(37:09):
don't know what you learn. I literally had no idea,
like the origin of that. But anyway, now, part of
baseball is like going out having a hot dog, and
so I next time we go, she's gonna have to
have one. I may throw up. But outside of that, yeah,
I've never been a fan of hot dogs.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
And there it is your top five hottest takes from
Rady Quinn not according to dove on social media.
Speaker 3 (37:34):
So that won't make its rounds, will it? No?
Speaker 2 (37:36):
Probably probably won't make the rounds now because it Scott forbid.
Anybody you know have some funner as a person, somebody
will be offended with some of the content here.
