Real good, real strong, real smooth man, Yeah, real smooth.
How about yourself? Hey?

Speaker 1 (01:47):
You know, just we're hanging out here, just watching the
NFL change every single day. It feels like there's a
new change in the NFL. How you feel something new,
how you feel about it? I get it, but it
does kind of make you long for the old days
when things were simpler, you know, like there was a
simpler time and then technology got in the way, and

(02:09):
technology decided, you know, we're going to make things a
little bit more complicated in the moment, but there's gonna
be a lot on the back end as far as
revenue goes. That makes a lot of sense. So, as
Eddie Garcia mentioned in his top of the Hour update,
there was an announcement yesterday that the NFL announced that Peacock,
the streaming service, will get the right.

Speaker 6 (02:30):
We'll get the.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
Right to air the Saturday night wild Card game of
this upcoming season.

Speaker 6 (02:37):
Now it is is.

Speaker 5 (02:39):
That Joe Paterno, No, it's kind of funny because they
kind of sound just alike.

Speaker 6 (02:44):
Yeah, they do.

Speaker 5 (02:45):
You know, I live around where I live there are
at least one hundred peacocks. Oh yeah, where I live
in Glendora.

Speaker 6 (02:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:57):
So, and it's a mating season right now. They get
after so you see all the big the big tails
are up, the tail feathers are up, and then they're
just out there like it's like what they really sound
like people, Now, let me ask you, it's kind of interesting.

(03:18):
Sounds like they're saying help every once in a while.
That is that is that early on in the act
or is that later on in the act that they
start making them You know, it's actually before during and
not after.

Speaker 6 (03:31):
Oh, that's the maiden call.

Speaker 5 (03:32):
They're not very loud after okay, no, after they run
them down, once they corner them and run them down. Yeah,
they don't. They don't be. They don't be saying maybe
to have the other one be saying help. But you know,
I'll tell you something that's something that I can get behind. Yeah,
take a nap coop. Yeah right, if they have a cigarette,
what's wrong with you? They they're gonna take a nap coop.

(03:57):
They're gonna lay it right on down right there.

Speaker 6 (04:00):
Oh that was great. How was it for you?

Speaker 5 (04:02):
You know, it's crazy. They lose their they lose their
tail feathers after eight after they do the deal too,
like shat them, shot the whole tale. You know, the
big long tail that they had opens up and you know, yeah,
that big long tail. Yeah, they lose it. They lose
it gone, they got they gone, part of the sacrifice.

(04:22):
I mean, it is something though humans humans have bumble
and tender and peacocks just make noises, yeah, and put
their feathers up.

Speaker 6 (04:30):
That's their app like, look how big my feathers are.
Swipe this.

Speaker 5 (04:34):
They're bigger than his. Look look how little his feathers are.
That's why I'm gonna put my feathers up and I'm
gonna go. Well, they inspired a streaming service. Okay, there
they did.

Speaker 6 (04:46):
So, so there is that.

Speaker 5 (04:47):
So they're not they're not just there hanging out the peacock.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
Yeah, shouts out to peacock. Good luck out there, guys.
It's a it's tough for a lot of competition in
Glendora if you want to get after it a bit.

Speaker 5 (04:58):
But coote this morning, did you? Yeah, hasn't been eating.
He was a big one too. He's been eating good. Yeah,
he's a big boy. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (05:07):
Ones by my house don't eat all that good.

Speaker 5 (05:10):
Yeah, nah, he was. He looked like a wolf. He's
eating real good. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
Yeah, yeah, No one's by my house. Whenever it's foggy out,
they start to roam. I've noticed that when he gets
foggy out, they start roaming, which is a little bit creepy,
but nonetheless. As far as this wild Card game, yeah,
Saturday night, let's get to it. So it's the first
ever exclusive live stream playoff game. It's going to follow

(05:36):
and the Wildcard Game that airs on NBC, and it's
going to take place January thirteenth at eight Eastern time, okay,
And so you look at it and you go, okay,
those those are all the details, the first and all
that stuff.

Speaker 6 (05:49):
But what does this mean revenue wise?

Speaker 1 (05:51):
Because we know that the NFL is trying to gear
up towards streaming, we know that this is a big
part of where this is all headed. So according to
the Wall Street Journal Home, it's a one year deal
with the league receiving approximately one hundred and ten million
dollars for this game. So one game on a streaming
service after some animals that are made in Glendora, and

(06:15):
the NFL is going to get one hundred and ten
million dollars.

Speaker 6 (06:19):
And you could say.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
Whatever you want about the NFL and Roger Goodell and
all the stuff that took place early on in his
time as commissioner, but they have figured out a way
to turn everything into a moneymaker.

Speaker 5 (06:31):
And it is amazing to say a game, one game,
one game right now.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Like in the I saw in the early nineties the
TV rights for the entire NFL. This is early nineties
when listen in the NFL was moving.

Speaker 6 (06:52):
I mean it was early great players all early nineties.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
I think it was like four hundred million for one
game to stream in January and the NFL is going
to generate one hundred and ten million dollars according to.

Speaker 6 (07:04):
This report from the Wall Streets.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
You're amazing, Like, did you ever think that it would
get to this point to where the NFL could turn
some little thing on your phone, this little square on
your phone that you would hit and click on and
the ability to watch that would turn into one hundred
and ten million dollars in their pocket for a playoff.

Speaker 5 (07:21):
Well, it's it's uh, that's where it's going. That's where
all of this is going.

Speaker 6 (07:25):
And it's only going to get more expensive.

Speaker 5 (07:27):
It's only going to become more exclusive content because it's
it's it's all about you know, the device, like you said,
the device that's going to play on the networks that
are giving you the service. I mean, they're going to
be the ones that that really, you know, they win

(07:48):
in this environment because everything is going to be consumed
by your cell phone. Everything, Like there's not like we're
to the point now. We are really to the point now.
And it's so crazy to me because it opens up
like the laying to a whole nother you know, level
of conversations where it's like not even it's not even

(08:09):
sports driven. It's just like, you know, like life driven
and like where where the hell are we right right now?
And that's the whole idea of everything you need is
literally in your phone. Yea, Like I go in my phone.
Twenty minutes later, somebody's pulling up to my house right

(08:30):
with food whatever whatever. I mean, you can order whatever
and they bring it to your door. There's no like
like the exchange has already taking place. You don't have
to use a credit card, you don't have to have
your your license on you pretty much anymore. Like it

(08:51):
all is in your phone. Like that to me, is
that like the wildest thing ever? Yeah, like that your phone,
that device becomes the most important part of your life.
Like if you ask anybody what is the most what
is the most important important device or important thing that

(09:13):
you need? Some people will say their pocket book, you know,
their briefcase, Like I don't. I don't know who wouldn't
say their phone today?

Speaker 1 (09:22):
Like I remember, in certain parts of the country, if
you go to obviously a big city, like you could
walk out in the street and just throw your thumb
up and throw your hand up and you can get a.

Speaker 5 (09:32):
Cab right away.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
And I remember one of the things growing up out
here or in Thousand Oaks where I was at, there
was no real cab service, so if you needed a ride,
somebody was just gonna have to be designated driver.

Speaker 7 (09:45):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (09:45):
Well, we had jitneys where I come from. My granddad
and his homeboys were jitneys. Shouts out to all the
jitney drivers out there. That was a jitney. Yeah, you know,
it's cultural, Okay, it was a what is a jitney?
It was like a habby, but it's like Uber before uber.

Speaker 6 (10:02):
Okay. So and you would obviously plan ahead and call
ahead for that.

Speaker 5 (10:06):
Well, they were neighborhood neighborhood like old heads. Okay, so
you you had you called a number and one of
the old heads come get you to take you there. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
I just remember we would have to somebody would either
have to be d D or you would hope that
the walk wasn't too long, or if you were out
at a bar celebrating somebody's twenty first birthday.

Speaker 5 (10:26):
That's just the way it was.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
I couldn't imagine back in the day just saying, oh,
you need a ride here, take my phone.

Speaker 6 (10:32):
And you click a button.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
You don't even have to make a phone call, you
click your button, it's a computer in your hand, sitting
in your pocket, and next thing you know, fifteen twenty
minutes later, you've got to ride home.

Speaker 5 (10:41):
Yeah, like just.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
The whole the whole way. Things have changed, and the
NFL's figured out the way to take advantage.

Speaker 5 (10:48):
And that's the I think that's the point of bringing
it and tying it all together, is they have figured
out how to to monetize, to bring value and a
one of the most turbulent, one of the quickest evolving
and growing and changing spaces, which is the digital space.

(11:10):
The digital age is going to replace television, like televisions
are are going to become obsolete like television. I can't believe.
It's the wildest thing. I am still a big screen
type of guy. The bigger the screen, the better for me.
If I could create a screen that was as big
as this this window to the control room, I would

(11:34):
create a screen that big to put my house Like
that's my Like I love the viewing pleasure of what
my programming is on a big screen. To think that
this generation that's it's like it's like what, like why

(11:57):
do you need this? Like how does this even matter?
And so now as we continue to transition into a
day where you will consume your content and everything else,
it's just going to be consumer driven through your your
your mobile devices. The NFL has continued to evolve and

(12:19):
adapt to the changes and the signs of the time.
And the more you get connected to how how this
technology in this world will work in the digital world,
the better off you're going to be. And that's why
if you look at how how much gambling is is
picking up, why would you not pick up on gambling?

(12:42):
Why would you not continue to allow it to become
more and more legalized? When that's it's almost it's it's
always been synonymous with sports anyway, so now with technology,
it's even more synonymous, and it's and it's fun, and
it's a part of the game, and it's driving a

(13:04):
lot of what's going on. So you're just looking at
elements that are really really going to drive and push
sports like and entertainment like football into a whole nother
It's going to go into a whole nother stratosphere. Man.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
It's why I always say you can listen to the
show on the iHeartRadio app, because it gives you the
option you get out of your car. Are you listening
on the radio you just pop on your phone, or
if you just want to continue listening on your phone
the entire time, you've got that option too. Man, Back
in the day, like, that's not how it was like,
you would have to have your car on. Yeah, you
gotta have your car on. You'd have to trust the

(13:40):
you know, the Wi Fi connection or the internet connection
from the streaming.

Speaker 5 (13:45):
Yeah, checks the antenna.

Speaker 6 (13:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
But if you wanted to listen to out of market radio,
if you wanted to listen to sports radio in another city,
you had to hope that the website had a legitimate
link that you could listen to or And now all
of that is available to you, and the NFL is
just all right.

Speaker 6 (14:00):
So if everybody's going to be on this.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Thing anyways, let's slowly creep all the market and that
while we're at it, we'll take one hundred and ten
million dollars for your trouble.

Speaker 5 (14:08):
The Big the Big ten is doing it too.

Speaker 6 (14:10):
It told me.

Speaker 5 (14:11):
It's why ten is going to be on uh NBC
and Peacock as well, and and Notre Dame Football. Like
that's it's bruh. I'm telling you. If you're paying attention.
The digital space is that's where everyone is. Yeah, you
got to fish where the fish are, you know, and

(14:31):
that's where that's and that's why the market is trying
to figure out how it's gonna, you know, where it's going.
Where are the marketing dollars going? Where's everything going? Because
you know, everything is trending digital. Yeah, it's uh, it's
going to be interesting to see the next phase of
the NFL and the next evolution of NFL viewing and
all that fun stuff.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
But we've got football. It's right around the corner. We've
always got football conversation on this show. It is two
pros and a cup of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio,
LeVar airing Jonas Knox with you here. So we're gonna
have the usuals coming up later on. We've got another
edition of You In or You Out. We've also got
ourselves in case you missed it, would you rather? And
all the same old shenanigans here on a Tuesday morning

(15:13):
for the next three hours here on Fox Sports Radio.
But could we be seeing a goodbye in the NFL
from a borderline Hall of Famer.

Speaker 6 (15:25):
We'll tell you who that is.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
That's next be sure to catch live editions of Two
Pros and a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Errington,
and Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three am
Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 8 (15:41):
Don't do me like that. Don't do me like that, Hey, Eddie,
Hey Eddie, don't do me like that. Come out hey,
come out, hey late late, don't do me like that.

Speaker 6 (16:00):
Is this Huey Lewis?

Speaker 5 (16:05):
Don't do me like that?

Speaker 6 (16:06):
Is this here? That's Huey Lewis in the news? Correct?
I get that wrong? What is that? Badly? Who is it?

Speaker 5 (16:12):
Let's go live to our You got that wrong? Insider
lead to laugh.

Speaker 6 (16:15):
Who was it? Lee, Tom Petty and the Heartbreaker?

Speaker 5 (16:19):
You can't you can't say no that that is not
the same thing.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
All right, it's it's Huey Lewis is a pothead. Okay,
what's the difference.

Speaker 5 (16:27):
Well, I mean they may have that income, but Tom Petty,
come on you comparing Huey Lewis to Tom Petty.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
Yeah, well, I would like to apologize to Huey Lewis.
He never danced in a music video with a corpse,
so is that?

Speaker 5 (16:41):
But uh, somebody had to do you wrong for you
to make a song called Don't Do Me Like That
as the hook, Like, what the hell did they do
to Tom?

Speaker 6 (16:50):
It is weed dealer, like a short two ounces?

Speaker 5 (16:54):
Have you made a song about it? I just I'm
not going to think it was weed. It might have
been a little stronger, you know.

Speaker 9 (17:00):
Can I get that? No, don't do me like that?
Don't do me like that? Bring that over here. It
is two pros and a cup of Joe.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Jonas Knox with here coming
up twenty minutes from now from these Tirak dot com
studios though, and NFL All Pro could be making a return.
We'll get into that for you here on FSR. So
this news came out yesterday. Matt Ryan matti Ice last
scene being one of the fall guys not named jim

(17:36):
Irsay in Indianapolis for the disaster that was the Indianapolis Colts.
Matt Ryan is going to be joining CBS as an
analyst this upcoming season, but quick to point out that
he is not retiring. This is not a retirement message
that he posted on social media. He is going to
be an analyst, though maybe trying to keep his options open.

(17:57):
But there's also the speculation that maybe this is a
little bit more about business, that if he wants to
get the money owed to him by the Indianapolis Colts,
he's got to at least give the perception that he's
trying to find work elsewhere. Otherwise, the coal if he
announced his retirement, they don't have to pay him that
extra twelve million dollars. But nonetheless it's only twelve million. Yeah,

(18:18):
you know, no big deal Matt Ryan. Potentially, and most likely,
we've seen the end of Matt Ryan as an NFL quarterback.
And I would simply just ask you, this is he
a Hall of Famer based on these credentials. Won an MVP,

(18:38):
four Pro Bowls, he was an All Pro, he was
the Offensive Player of the Year, he was Rookie of
the Year. He's top ten in passing yards all time
and top ten in passing touchdowns all time. But that
Super Bowl loss was so devastating and so catastrophic. I
think there's going to be some people that would say, no,

(19:00):
that he's not.

Speaker 5 (19:00):
A Hall of Famer. I mean, he's not a first
ballot Hall of Famer. He's not a get in anytime soon.
Hall of Famer, But I think he has Hall of
Fame credentials. Now you said how many All pros?

Speaker 6 (19:16):
He was an all one time first team All Pro.
I mean.

Speaker 5 (19:22):
He might be a little deficient there. You said four
Pro Bowls, Yeah, four Pro Bowls. He might be a
little deficient there. MVP, I mean that that that checks
off a box that how many percentage of players in
the Hall of Fame don't have an MVP award, you know. Yeah,

(19:45):
and there's a lot of guys in the Hall of
Fame I don't have Super Bowls either.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
Top ten passing yards, top ten passing touchdowns. This is
the list the company he keeps as far as touchdowns
go in his career. Obviously Tom Brady's at the top
of the list. Then you've got Drew Brees, Peyton Manning,
Brett Farr of Aaron Rodgers, Philip Rivers, Dan Marino, and
then Ben Roethlisberg. Yeah, and so then you've got Matt Ryan.

(20:12):
I think some people would say on the Philip Rivers front, well,
you know, how can you know is Philip Rivers a
Hall of Famer?

Speaker 5 (20:17):
They have a Philip Rivers doesn't have MVPs.

Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yeah, So that's where the argument is certainly and he's
got more than Matt Ryan.

Speaker 5 (20:26):
He made a Super Bowl appearance.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Matt Ryan's got more obviously passing touchdowns in Eli Manning,
who's tenth.

Speaker 6 (20:32):
But Eli's got those two Super.

Speaker 5 (20:34):
Bowls, So it was Super Bowl MVPs and one of
the other things, wait, maybe one, not both. He does
have a Super Bowl MVP, I believe, so, yeah, I
believe that Eli Manning is super MVP.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
But one of the other things that I think should
be noted that movie doesn't get talked about a lot
when it comes to Matt Ryan. He didn't take over
the easiest situation in at least because there was a
contingent of fans in Atlanta who didn't want Matt Ryan.
They wanted Michael Vick. And I think people forget about

(21:10):
that because they loved Michael Vick and it was like
a he was Atlanta football, like he was their new
he was Atlanta culture. Yeah, he was their new Deon Sanders.
And when he got popped and went away, they were.

Speaker 6 (21:28):
Resentful to Matt Ryan.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Like I remember there being booze like for Matt Ryan
because they wanted Michael Vick and there was number seven
jerseys in the crowd, and Matt Ryan had to really
win over that fan base and win over that organization,
and when he did, he became a better quarterback than
Michael Vick. They won much bigger games and won more
often with Matt Ryan as their quarterback as opposed to

(21:51):
Michael Vick.

Speaker 6 (21:52):
But I think.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
Sometimes people forget exactly what it was that he took
over when he got there, because that was not a
pretty picture in Atlanta.

Speaker 5 (22:00):
Yeah, there were a few things that uh oh yeah,
he had both Super Bowl MVPs. That's what I thought,
two time MVP. Yeah. Out to lead to lap on
that efforting that effort he put forth and getting that
information Joes. But yeah, Matt Ryan's one of those He's
one of those guys. He's a tweener. Like you will

(22:22):
say he was a franchise quarterback.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
On four Pro Bowls.

Speaker 5 (22:31):
Is not that's not you know, that's it's a tad
big questionable. But he is one of those guys that
you know who he is there is there's the credibility
to what he's been able to accomplish in his career,
and he's he's he's higher level than a quarterback that

(22:55):
had a good career in the league. Like I almost
believe you could say Matt's career was a great NFL career,
Hall of Fame worthy career. Yeah, so, I mean, so
what for whatever it's worth, I believe he had he
did do enough. And listen, you could take the sentimental
value and say he came into a rough situation with

(23:17):
the fallout of what took place with with Mike, but
in the end, he had a job to do. These
guys get drafted, they have jobs to do, and a
lot of times they come up way, way, way short
of what the expectation or what the projection was for
what they would would do in this league. And I
think Mitt Ryan delivered. He definitely delivered. He didn't didn't

(23:41):
get you know, the Super Bowl, but again he made
an appearance.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
And also I think it should be if we're going
to be fair about Matt Ryan and what he took over,
he usually for the most part, had a ton of
talent to work with, whether it was Roddy White, Roddy White,
whether it was you know, Julio Jones, Julio Jones, Tony Gonzalez,
Remember Michael Turner running back was there, Like there was really,

(24:05):
really good talent around him, and so one of the
things was, you know, it wasn't like he got to
a place where the cupboard was bear like. There was,
there was talent there. He made the most of it
and turned himself into a borderline Hall of Fame quarterback.
I do wonder how he's judged based on that Super Bowl,
and it's unfair that he's the quarterback who gets, you know,

(24:27):
the blame and maybe too much of the credit, like
they most most quarterbacks do. It's unfair that his name
will be attached to what happened in that Super Bowl
when the reality is man that defense completely let him down,
like completely let him down. And so it's kind of
like we've talked about the Jimmy Garoppolo stuff.

Speaker 5 (24:45):
Well I talk about the Jimmy garoppolos. I talk about
it too. I got Jimmy's back. Most people say that
it was Jimmy Garoppolo's mispass that was the reason why
they lost, and I say, you had. You gave them
boys a to two possession, two possession lead. You had
to you had to get the ball twice to win
that game. Yeah, you had to score, I mean, not

(25:06):
get the balls like you had to score twice to
win that game, like and and people blame Jimmy Garoppolo,
but you know it is what it is. Yeah, I
hear you about about Matt Ryan. Yeah, so so we
get that was an epic fail. How how big was
the lead, like twenty one, twenty eight it's twenty eight
to three, twenty eight to three, Yeah, twenty five point league, yep,

(25:28):
evaporated in the second half. He go, god dang, and
what the I'm sorry.

Speaker 6 (25:34):
You can't you can't.

Speaker 5 (25:36):
You can't blame an offense for losing a game if
you went into halftime twenty twenty eight to three. Can't
can't blame the offense.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Ever, And there was a Listen, Kyle Shanahan's gotten some
of the blame for the play calling they didn't like
because they were they were they kept turning it over
so quickly. Yeah, they just he didn't want to run
the ball, seem like. But there were so many other
things that happened in that game, whether it was you know,
Julian Edeman making that catch, that crazy catch that saved

(26:06):
the game for New England, whether Danny Amandola scoring two
point conversions, like they had to do so much to
win that game, and then it was one of those
things to where once New England got the ball to
start overtime, knew it was over. Like Atlanta was never
going to get the ball back. The defense was spent,
and New England went right down the field scored that
touchdown and that was a wrap and Matt Ryan was

(26:28):
the quarterback of the helm of that team and just
never were able to get back to that point ever again.
But great career.

Speaker 5 (26:35):
Do you remember where you watched that game?

Speaker 1 (26:38):
I think I was at home because Brady Quinn and
I were doing the post Super Bowl game show, Okay,
and I was waiting for the game to end so
I could come in studio, and it went so late
that I once the final play happened, I had to
dart out the door and then almost didn't make it

(27:01):
to the studio in time because everybody was leaving the
bars and the Super Bowl parties, and I remember being
on the road coming into the studio thinking I'm the
only sober person on the road right now.

Speaker 6 (27:12):
Huh, Like there were people swerving. I'm like, what is
going on here?

Speaker 1 (27:16):
Because people were all leaving Super Bowl parties just trying
to get on the road because they had to work
the next day.

Speaker 6 (27:20):
But that was a crazy, crazy game to watch.

Speaker 5 (27:23):
Where were you during that game? I'll tell you off air, Michael,
What do you mean I can't say it on air.
I can't say it on air.

Speaker 6 (27:32):
No, okay, no, you give a hint. At least I.

Don't know the way I had a very good friend
who is a huge Patriots fan go to Atlanta and
leave it halftime.

Oh wow, No, it's such a great part of his
story though. Yeah, you freaking loser as a fan boy,
I tell you. But it's it's a great part of
your your story.

Speaker 6 (28:51):
That game wasn't in Atlanta.

Speaker 10 (28:53):
Houston. I'm sorry, Houston.

Speaker 6 (28:55):
Sorry he paid all that money to go to Houston
and let he.

Speaker 7 (28:59):
He he he didn't. He didn't invest as much money
as you might think because he had some connections.

Speaker 10 (29:04):
But still, I.

Speaker 6 (29:05):
Mean, dude, it's a Super Bowl.

Speaker 7 (29:07):
He didn't want to see what was happening, And well,
I'm actually he didn't see what happened.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
I'm actually impressed. He admitted that I would have lied.
That's the thing I've ever seen in my life. Oh,
but I was doing snow angels and the confetti on
the ground on the field.

Speaker 5 (29:21):
I think. I think the truth of it is much
better though, than the lie.

Speaker 10 (29:24):
That's true. Yeah, I mean, it's unforgettable.

Speaker 6 (29:26):
He screwed that one's unforgiving me.

Speaker 5 (29:28):
And a lot of people checked out. I could tell
I'll tell you off.

Speaker 7 (29:31):
Yeah, and I'll be honest with you. This was and
before this ever happened. That's why I will almost never
leave a game early out of fear. That's something insane
will happen and I'll have missed it.

Speaker 6 (29:43):
That's the especially game of that magnitude.

Speaker 5 (29:45):
Come on, man, I turned my attention to chicken wings,
French fries and other things. Yeah, where you're at. Yeah,
we'll art well.

Dude, morning fellas, Good to see you all. Jonas LeVar. Guys,
In case you missed this, Former NFL star Brandon Marshall
was asked on the im Athlete podcast whether or not
he would come out of retirement more than Jonas Martan LeVar.
He's asked on the im Athlete podcast whether or not

(34:34):
he would come out of retirement to play with Aaron
Rodgers in uh In Gang Green in New York.

Speaker 6 (34:40):
Return to New York.

Speaker 12 (34:40):
This is what he said as a sale job to
Aaron Rodgers and the Jets.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
Here's why I'll be ready if I get the call
to come back as a New York Jet at tight end,
We're gonna win the Super Bowl. I'm gonna be able
to contribute at a high level. And this is what
I'm gonna give you. Forty five catches throughout the year. Okay,
twenty thirty plays a game, and I'm gonna give you
eight touchdowns.

Speaker 5 (35:04):
Four huh.

Speaker 6 (35:07):
How about that?

Speaker 1 (35:07):
Aaron, Aaron Rodgers and Brandon Marshall back together again. You know,
Brandon Marshall was the guy that was kind of hounding
him to get some answers on whether or not he
was going to go to the Jets, and now Brandon
Marshall's parlaying that into a possible gig. Would you sign
Brandon Marshall viewer the Jets to play tight End?

Speaker 5 (35:25):
No? Not even like give him like a little bit
of a sniff. I mean there's tight Ends out there, okay,
I mean we're going to use the music to talk
about oh because it's still Casey miss Yeah, yeah, we're
still I know where did the music come from? But no,
I would that'd be a no for me.

Speaker 6 (35:45):
Doc.

Speaker 1 (35:45):
All right, so we've got Tyler conklin cj Usama, Jeremy Ruckert,
and Zach Koontz. By the way, Zach Koontz is the
guy who was the star of the combine.

Speaker 6 (35:57):
He use that Old Dominion.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
And I'm not here to you know, bother anybody or
try and piss anybody off. I would like to be
pointed out that Zach Kunz did leave Penn State to
go to Old Dominion. Again, I'm not trying to cause
me problems here, okay, I'm just simply telling stories like
they are that he chose to go to Old Dominion
and not stay at Penn State.

Speaker 5 (36:17):
So yeah, I mean things happen, Okay, I'm just saying,
you know, we are yeap tight end you. Yeah, why
you put your lotion on you like this soft for you?

Speaker 6 (36:29):
My hands are dry.

Speaker 5 (36:30):
Yeah. Which, by the way, Brandon Marshall is how old?

Speaker 6 (36:37):
Thirty nine?

Speaker 5 (36:38):
He's thirty nine. Mercedes Lewis is thirty eight. I mean,
just keep that in mind. Yeah, and if you want
to put it in proper perspective, Mercedes Lewis is thirty eight.

Speaker 6 (36:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (36:51):
Probably a long shot for Brandon Martin. I mean it's
probably a long shot. You probably would have had to
stay active. But I'm just saying he's only one year
older then Mercedes Lewis and yeah, and Mercedes is still playing.

Speaker 6 (37:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (37:04):
He was asked to follow up on how he would
feel about hitting guys like von Miller or anybody else,
and he was pretty timid about it.

Speaker 6 (37:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (37:12):
I mean, did you have a SoundBite on it or
you were.

Speaker 6 (37:14):
Just saying that, I'm just telling me letting you know.

Speaker 5 (37:17):
That's okay, Yeah, gotcha.

Speaker 6 (37:18):
At least he's he's thought it through.

Speaker 5 (37:20):
At least I have no desire to see Brandon Marshall
return back to football.

Speaker 1 (37:24):
By the way, his post NFL career is going pretty good.
I mean he's still he's not doing bad at all.

Speaker 5 (37:28):
Yeah, he's still yeah. Yeah, just go ahead and stick
to I am athlete. What else were going race too?
So too, don't be mad on social media talking about
you guys.

Speaker 6 (37:39):
We have numbers.

Speaker 12 (37:40):
Since in the five years since the US Supreme Court
cleared the way for all fifty states to offer legal
sports gambling, Americans have spent over two hundred and twenty
billion dollars, according to the AP.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
My people right there, So I'm talking about some people
with some balls.

Speaker 6 (37:56):
Oh wow, say you know what, I think.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
I know what's going to happen in this game, and
I'm willing to put my money on the line for it.
Those are the type of people I like to hang
around with. That's who I associate myself with. Now they've
probably lost all that money, but it's fine.

Speaker 6 (38:10):
You know.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
It's not like the money's just disappearing and going off
and being thrown in a trash can somewhere. They're building
new fountains, they're building ballparks in Las Vegas for the
Oakland A's. I mean, they're doing all sorts of fun stuff.
These are my people, all right. I feel like I
was at the forefront of sports gambling years and years ago.
So this is this is a win for us degenerates

(38:33):
who like to bet on sports and like to partake
in this store to behavior.

Speaker 6 (38:36):
I'd be like, this is a big win for us.

Speaker 5 (38:38):
There you go, yep, all right?

Speaker 12 (38:39):
What else Lee deemed the og of influencers that by
Sports Illustrated. Sports Illustrated is making Martha Stewart the oldest
women to ever be featured on the cover of the
SI Swimsuit edition.

Speaker 5 (38:52):
That was Martha stored on that cover.

Speaker 6 (38:54):
That is Martha Stewart.

Speaker 5 (38:55):
Oh wow, I didn't know. Wow, okay, Martha.

Speaker 6 (38:59):

Speaker 5 (39:01):
No, I just didn't know it was Martha Steart?

Speaker 6 (39:04):
How old you see it? How old? I saw some stuff?

Speaker 12 (39:07):
Eighty one years old?

Speaker 6 (39:08):
She's eighty one?

Speaker 5 (39:09):

Speaker 2 (39:12):

No, I just seems like, yare.

Speaker 6 (39:30):

Speaker 5 (39:33):
I mean, why not put an eighty year old woman
on the cover? I mean a very accomplished one, you know. No,
I yeah not.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
I just I have a different thing in mind when
I think about the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, I think about,
I don't.

Speaker 5 (39:52):
Know what, like now, he's not going to be ages,
He's going to be just all out showing.

Speaker 1 (39:59):
No, it's just no, it's I just think that at
eighty one years old, it feels like we're past a certain.

Speaker 6 (40:07):
Point, you know, Like, I just I don't know what
you mean.

Speaker 1 (40:12):
Well, I don't know how many people turn on cocoon
to get turned on, you know what I mean, Like,
I don't know that that happens.

Speaker 5 (40:18):
It just depends on what you're into. I guess, Okay, Well,
I mean like, like, what's what's her tender age range?
You know, sixty five to death? Like, what are we
doing here? At some point we've.

Speaker 6 (40:35):
