Speaker 1 (00:00):
Two pros and a cup of Joe. Fox Sports Radio,
LaVar Arrington, Jonas Knox with you here. Coming up on
this Thursday edition, We've got a gambling scandal in the NFL,
potentially players about to get popped.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Albert Breer will have the latest on all of that.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Plus we're going to talk about perfection with the New
York Yankees and a feel good story. Apparently you can
cut corners and cheat and still throw a perfect game.
We'll deliver on that as well too. We've got other
news and notes from around the NFL, like Travis Kelcey
looking to get paid. We've got an fsr IR story
from Lead to Lap, and the worst travel experience of
all time. And we got the usual shenanigans. It's all yours.

(00:35):
Coming up next here, Two pros and a cup of
Joe on a Thursday, Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Let's give this.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Two pros and a cup of Joe. Fox Sports Radio,
LaVar Arrington, Jonas Knox with you here. No Brady Quinn,
Yes he's still on the show. We'll get that out
of the way early on so you can leave us
the hell alone. The rest of the three hours of
this program. You can listen this show here on the
iHeartRadio app. You can find us on hundreds of affiliates
all across the country and wherever you are making us
a part of your Thursday morning, we appreciate you doing so.

(01:10):
We will take you all the way up until nine
am Eastern time, six o'clock Pacific, and we do it
all live from the ti raq dot com studios tirac
dot com. We'll help you get there an unmatched selection,
fast reshipping, free road has protection and over ten thousand
recommended installers tire rac dot com. The way tire buying
should be. You ever seen somebody behave in a way

(01:33):
that doesn't make sense until later on you find out
why they were actually behaving in that way. You know,
like hear this stuff all the time. Somebody finds out
that their better half is fooling around on them, and
then they start to think back and retrace the steps,
and they go, God, they were clues there the whole time.
I should have known there were clues there the whole time.

(01:54):
If I would have paid close enough attention, I could
have spotted those clues. I could have seen what was happening.
But unfortunately, too little, too late. And now I just
got to deal with the fact that somebody fooled around
on me with the neighbor, the neighbor's dog, you name it,
whatever their preference. That's what that went down. And that's
the way this thing works. So I say all that

(02:14):
to say this, We should have known something was coming
up in the NFL. Should have known. All the signs
were there, sending members of the league to talk to
players about the dangers of gambling, Tom Brady doing a
video to send out to rookies coming into the league,

(02:37):
talking about how it's not worth it. You know, guys,
it's not worth it, you know, don't ruin your career
by gambling.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
On the NFL.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
All the other little things that have come out, you
got coaches and players saying, yeah, we just felt like
a lot of this stuff we weren't really all that
educated on, you know, kind of confused, kind of kind
of you know, trying to figure this whole thing out,
don't really have a clear under standing as to what.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
The rules are.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
And then Adam Schefter drops this little jim yesterday courtesy
of ESPN, that Isaiah Rogers of the Colts, you know,
the kick returner slash defensive back who got popped for gambling. Well,
him and a handful of other players are expected to
receive season long suspensions for violating the NFL's gambling policy. Yeah,

(03:25):
we should have known something was coming up. Now, we
knew about Isaiah Rodgers. All right, and I listen, I
backed Isaiah Rodgers on this show. Guys a kick returner,
have you seen what the league's doing to kick returners?
I don't blame him for trying to have some supplemental income.
What do you want me to do? Drive an uber
or lyft? No, he's looking around, going, hey, if I've

(03:46):
got some intel on some of these teams, I'm gonna
go ahead and place a bet and try and make
some of this money back. The league's taken from me
out of my back pocket in front pocket because they.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
Want to ruin the kickoff.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
But then it's all these other players, Albert Breer, who
were gonna talk to you.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Later on on this show. He is, he's said for
a little while now.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yet it feels like there's some other guys that are
gonna pop up here, feels like there's some other suspensions
that are coming up. It feels like This isn't just
an isolated incident when it comes to Isaiah Rodgers, and
of course this is the same offseason. You got members
from the Lions like Jamison Williams, you got a member
of the Washington Commanders who got popped. You got Calvin

(04:27):
Ridley coming back, and he's talking about all the all
the dangers of gambling and why it's not worth it,
and why we should have known there's something else going
on here and something else was coming up around the corner.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Should have known all the signs were there.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
What I'm wondering is how big are the name's gonna
be to get popped and the names that get released,
And furthermore, how many of those names are we not
going to hear about?

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Like I want to know?

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Like I always I thought it was a li strange
that of all the people you would have doing a
tutorial or a video on what not to do when
it comes to sports betting, that it would be Tom.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
Brady, Like, why would you go so over the top?

Speaker 1 (05:16):
Like the comparison I made was, if you've got a
little fire on the stove, you don't bring an airliner
to drop fire retardant on the entire house. You either
turn the stove off, you fan it down with a
rolled up newspaper or magazine, or you bring one of
the house fire extinguishers out to have a tanker drop

(05:39):
a bunch of pink stuff all over the house to
put out a stove fire. Seems a bit drastic. And
it seemed like Tom Brady being brought in to do
some video to try and warn players about gambling seemed
a bit drastic. And now we know why. Like what
if it's a quarterback? What if one of the names
that comes out one of these names that Adam Schefter

(06:00):
is talking about, which is expected to be released this week, which,
by the way, that leaves today and tomorrow. Like, what
if one of those names that comes out all of
a sudden to quarterback. Now you've got a guy who's
got an intimate role and an impact on the game,
on the outcome of the game, who all of a

(06:21):
sudden is placing wagers on NFL games. Now, I don't
think it's as drastic as the fix is in or
these guys are trying to, you know, scam the league
and scam the fans. I don't think it's a Tim
Donahey where they're admitting that they're changing the outcome of
games by betting on games. But for the NFL, if

(06:42):
this is all about optics, if you're trying to cater
to the optic police, there are two things that need
to happen here. One, you got to lay the hammer
down and let everybody know everything is going to be fine.
We take your gambling money, We're willing to work with
the gambling companies, We're willing to bring in this extra revenue,
and with the team in Las Vegas. Right now, we
want to make everybody aware that all of this is

(07:04):
on the up and up and we're fine. Right, So
that is the first thing you do. The other thing
you do is look around and go, all right, how
could we get past this as fast as possible? All right,
do we have any big announcement we can drop right
after all this, right after the NFL comes out and
announces all these names, Like, what are they going to

(07:25):
do next? Give Sunday ticket for half off? What's the plan?
Like if you're Roger Gonna, Because you know this is
the way they work. They've been sitting on these names
for a long time. They've been sitting on all these names,
And who's been placing wagers on over unders and total

(07:51):
rushing yards for a player here, Like they've been sitting
on these names for a while. They've been trying to
formulate when's the best time to drop all this. And
if they know that some of these names could be
damaging to the league, they're gonna try and do whatever
they can to steer people in another direction. They're gonna
do the late week news dump whatever you can call it,
if that's even a real thing at this point. But

(08:12):
the NFL's already got a plan be to try and
steer everybody away from the fact that you've got some
players out there that may or may not be degenerate gamblers,
and they've got all these six rules they drop out,
and well if players can't, you know, like you can't
walk through a casino.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
You can't do this. She can't.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
It's like, okay, I mean, you got a Pro Bowl
in Las Vegas. Other than the fact that you've got
a Pro Bowl in Las Vegas, you got a Super
Bowl coming up in Las Vegas, and you've got a
professional team in Las Vegas. The only other issues you
got with Las Vegas is whether or not Alvin Kamara
is waiting for his floor on an elevator, and whether
or not he beats your ass on the way there.
That's really all you got other than that everything should

(08:51):
be fine. But this is a year where you're bringing
the Super Bowl all the way to Las Vegas, the
home base ground zero of gambling, and the offseason before
you've got yourselves a gambling scandal. And like I said,

(09:11):
I don't think it's as drastic as a bunch of
players dictating the outcome of games. I don't think it's
as drastic as a bunch of players out there trying
to trying to scam the league and scam the fans.
But I do think it's bad enough that the NFL
has been trying to get ahead of this the entire time,
and we should have read it from a mile away
little crumbs here, Hey, what do you think about this?

(09:34):
It's like when you are trying to ask for something
as a kid, or even when you get married. You
want to a little getaway trip. You and your buddies
want to go out of town for the weekend. All
of a sudden, brand new dozen Roses show up to
the house. You're kind, Hey, don't worry about it. I'll
take the kids to school.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
I got it.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
Hey, everything's fine. You know, you just kind of you
butter them up a little bit, then you drop the
bombshell on them. Hey, you mind if we go have
our fantasy draft a drafted a strip club?

Speaker 2 (09:59):
Is that cool? Going to do it next Thursday? Thanks.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
The NFL has had this. The NFL has been bracing
for this. The NFL has been leaving little crumbs along
the way, and we've been et scooping up Reese's pieces
off the floor at some house in California because the
NFL knew the outcome is going to change some things,
So away we go. Let's hope it's a big name.

(10:24):
Let's hope we got a further scandal. And just for
the record, any of you players out there that may
be listening to this show that are wondering whether or
not you're going to be judged unfairly by a bunch
of nerds in the media who have never placed a
bet in their life, not from this guy, and not
on this show. We support gambling on this show. And
you know what, if you felt like you had to

(10:46):
make some supplemental income because you are a special teams
player or a guy returning kicks like Isaiah Rodgers. I
support that too. All of us have had to work
two or three jobs at one point or another. I
was the rat at Chuck E Cheese. I'm not here
to criticize. There's anybody for how they make a little
bit of money on the side. Two pros and a
cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio, No LeVar Arrington yet.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Technical difficulties.

a Thursday morning as we wait some suspensions for a
bunch of gamblers in the NFL. But coming up next though,
were you a part of history? Were you a part
of history in the world of sports? I think you
might have been. We'll talk about it. It's yours next

Speaker 4 (11:51):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and

Speaker 1 (12:05):
App Two Pros and a Cup of Joe, Fox Sports
Radio efforting, LeVar Arrington, Jonas Knox with you here coming
up and we'll call it about a little over twenty
minutes from now We are going to find out what
you would be willing to do for two hundred dollars?
What would you be willing to do for two hundred dollars?
Because I think some of you aren't telling the truth.
And we will have that discussion with you here again

(12:26):
a little over twenty minutes from now here Fox Sports Radio.
So we had a little bit of history in the
world of sports last night. Domingo Herman of the New
York Yankees through a perfect game.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
Right.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
So this was in Oakland, so obviously in front of
a packed house people just I mean hanging from the
rafters to try and watch this game. The twenty fourth
perfect game in the history of Major League Baseball. So
this is like a huge moment for Domingo Herman and
you know, just they talked about a difficult week. I think,
you know, there was a death in the family, and

(13:00):
for him to go out there and pitch the way
that he pitched, just impressive to see him get it done.
And the fact it's only the twenty fourth time we've
seen it in the history of Major League Baseball makes
it even more impressive. So afterwards, his manager, Aaron Boone
talked about watching his pitcher work and getting to see

(13:20):
history up close in person.

Speaker 5 (13:22):
It was just so fun to watch him do that
and go to work and when he gets rolling like that,
He's just so fun to watch at his craft, you know,
just because he's so good at commanding all of his pitches.
His curveball is great tonight. I was actually pretty calm
over there, you know, just again just enjoying watching him
kind of paining a masterpiece.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Yeah, it's funny he uses the word paint, considering this
as a guy who was ejected once this season and
was caught another time this season with a sticky substance
all over his hands, just saying it is funny that that.
I don't know if we're telling what we're talking like
Don Edwards. You know maybe uh, you know, there used
to be an old Pittsburgh paints company back in the day. Crylon,

(14:06):
is that a paint company? I'm not quite sure.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Listen, I don't know if he's into into graffiti or
any of that other stuff.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
But maybe he's just paint in the house.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
But apparently Aaron Boone likes what he saw out of
Domingo hermad But in all seriousness, I actually think this
is a heartwarming tale, and this is a good story
to have a discussion about.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
And here's why.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
It just goes to show you just because you cut
a corner one time doesn't mean you're always gonna be
that guy, all right, Like just because you speed one
time on the freeway doesn't mean you're always going to
be that person. Like there's somebody right now who's gonna
get a speeding ticket at some point later on today.
It's gonna happen, right, I watched somebody get a speeding

(14:46):
ticket on my way in. It's gonna happen. But just
because you do it one time doesn't mean you're gonna
do it tomorrow or the next day, or set a
Sunday or might like listen. Sometimes people just make mistakes
and they deserve to be forgiven. And I think, coming
off a season in which the Houston Astros won a

(15:06):
World Series, the fact that a guy who got ejected
from a game because he had a sticky substance, which
was described by the umpires as when they touched his hand,
they had a hard time removing theirs.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
Now, I don't know what we're doing.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
I don't know if you know, if we're gluing Christmas
lights up and he just had a little residue left over,
I'm not really sure how that happens. That seems like
some pretty impressive glue. It doesn't seem like the Elmers
that you watch some weirdo in your class eat when
he was a kid, and then you were stunned to
find out at your twenty year reunion that he was
a drug addict the entire time, Like, listen, that stuff happens.

(15:47):
That is a possibility. But the fact that we saw
somebody who got ejected from a game for cutting corners,
bounce all the way back and then throw a perfect
game just goes to show you we don't know.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
Diddley Pooh, in the words of Jim Mora about what
cheating really is.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
It's like when a player in the NFL gets popped
four games because he's taken peds. And then you get
DeAndre Hopkins who says, well, it was a shampoo I
was using. It's why I never criticized the guy. Now,
I've used VO five before, I didn't get jacked afterwards.

Speaker 2 (16:24):
All right.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
I've used Perp plus. I've had Dan Driftma in my day.
That's happened, all right. I've used head and shoulders, all right.
I don't remember being able to power clean seven hundred
pounds after I use some head and shoulders. I'm just
trying to get rid of whatever the hell's going on
the top of my head. But apparently to DeAndre Hopkins,
he used some shampoo and next thing you know, a

(16:47):
guy pisses hot.

Speaker 3 (16:48):
We couldn't do.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Dittay Coo offensively.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
Agreed, Jim all right, Jim Moore may have cut a
couple of corners back in the day. Former Fox Sports
radio host. This is a judgment free zone. And so
the fact that we've seen the Houston Astros come back
and win a World Series after they were banging on
trash cans and the fact that we got di Mingo Herman,

(17:12):
who a month and a half ago had a sticky
substance all over his hands and was ejected from a game,
which was the second time this year he had to
be talked to about it. And he comes all the
way back and throws a perfect game, Like, look, maybe
major League Baseball let his slide, you know, give these
A's fans a little feel good on the way out. Yeah,
we're gonna build a stadium right next to the luxor

(17:34):
in the MGM lion's mouth. But you know what, give
him one last kind of send off. Hey, you want
a little bit of history. It's not gonna happen because
of you guys. Your team stinks. So here's a little
bit of history. We'll let Dimingo Herman use whatever it
is he's got to use. Paint, thinner w D forty

(17:56):
like you name it, cooking oil, I mean grease from
a George Foreman grill and that little pan that comes
off the bottom. Like whatever he's got to whatever substance
he's got to use. You want to file down the
baseball do whatever you need to do. You want to
leave your nails in a way to where you look gothic,
but it gives you a little extra spin on the ball.

(18:16):
That's fine. Give these A's fans something on the way out.
They've been through a lot.

Speaker 2 (18:23):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Maybe that was part of the deal here, but the
fact is it just furthers the point we don't know
what the hell we're talking about. Like everybody wants to
vilify Lance Armstrong and now I'm not going to get
into Lance Armstrong's interview with Caitlin Jenneric because I I
don't care.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
Okay, you guys can go get worked up about that
all you want.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
But everyone looked at Lance Armstrong, We're like, Wow, he's
a scumbag, and he's a cheater and he's a fraud.
And then you realize one of those Tour de Frances
when they went back and looked through they realize, oh, everybody,
here's on the gas. All right, we got a brand
new champion. It was like the guy who finished twenty eighth,
he gets a call one day and it's from the

(19:02):
Tour de France, like, congratulations on your Tour de France.
When he's like, what are you talking about? I'm waiting tables, now,
what do you mean you want the Tour de France,
the other twenty seven guys in front of you, pissed hot,
they don't count anymore. When you find out a lot
of people are doing it, kind of changes the way
you feel about what actually cheating is and what cutting

(19:23):
corners is. And so look, I know Rob Manford's not
the most well like guy. Now, the commissioner of Major
League Baseball a little bit abrasive, doesn't realize when he's
saying something that's a little insulting, like disrespecting the World
Series trophy or telling as fans, we appreciate you guys
doing the reverse boycott yet average attendance when he showed
up to that game. I know he doesn't realize what

(19:44):
he's actually saying as he sends Major League Baseball over
to London. I get all that, but this ought to
change the way you feel about sometimes when people cut corners.
Just because you do it once doesn't mean you're always
going to do it, all right, Yes, the Astros banged
on some trash cans, all right. They may have had

(20:07):
some sort of an electric shock treatment on some of
their players to where they were getting tipped off. You know,
when a curveball was coming that may have happened, but
it doesn't mean they're all scumbags, and it doesn't mean
they're gonna be scumbags for the rest of their life.
Sometimes people just make mistakes, you know. I know a

(20:28):
lot of people out there who have dined and ditched.
I've never done it, but it's a scumbag move. I
was driving one time, about a year and a half ago,
a bunch of kids hiding behind a wall near my
house pegged the front of my truck with eggs. All right, So,

(20:48):
like any rational human being, what did I do? Went
to the house, grabbed a giant Philip screwdriver and a blowtorch,
and said, what are we doing here? They were gone when.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
I got back.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
But the reason why I was able to calm down
in the moment is because I realized, you know what,
I've been an a hole too. I threw water balloons
at people coming out of a movie theater when I
was growing up in high school. So I said, I
did it once. I'm a changed person now, and sometimes
when people make mistakes, they change afterwards, and it's for
the better. So congratulations to Domingo Harman, a guy who

(21:26):
had radiator fluid on his hands pitching in a game
and was ejected for it a month and a half ago,
and now makes history and throws a perfect game. I
think it's a heartwarming tale. Two pros and a cup
of Joe. Here Fox Sports Radio, Jonas nocks with you

(21:47):

Speaker 2 (21:56):
Guy's not a cheater.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
Guy makes history all the time and throws a perfect
game every time he cracks a mic.

Speaker 2 (22:03):
It's Edmund Garcia.

Speaker 6 (22:05):
Well, thank you, Jonas, you got it, Eddie appreciate that.
Let's start with Major League Baseball games of note. As
you were talking about history in Oakland with the Yankees
beating the A's eleven nothing and Domingo Herman tossing a
perfect game, the fourth in Yankees' history. He joins David Wells,
David Cone, and Don Larsen twenty fourth in Major League history.
The last to do it was Seattle's Felix Hernandez in

(22:26):
twenty twelve. Hermant threw ninety nine pitches, seventy two or strikes,
no runs, no HiT's, no walks, and nine strikeouts in
the perfect game, raised over the Diamondbacks three two in
a battle of division leaders. That's the AL East leaders
knocking off the NL West leaders. Tampa Bay was now
two to nothing in the night score three to get
the win, Josh Low two RBI double your game winning hit.

(22:46):
It was a battle of division leaders going into the
game in Atlanta, with the Brave shutting out the Twins
three nothing. Colby Allard and four Leavers combining on the
four hit shutout for Atlanta, and Matt Olson cracked his
twenty six home erund of the year that leads to
the National League Atlanta is a National League best fifty
three to twenty seven. Guardians crushed the Royals fourteen to one.
Jose Ramirez a grand slam drove in five for Cleveland

(23:06):
as they moved past Minnesota and now in the first
place in the AL Central by a half game. Cleveland
manager Terry Francona was not managing this game for the Guardians.
He was released though, from the hospital after staying overnight
for observation. The night before, Red's outscored the Orioles eleven
to seven. Brewers beat the Mets five to two, so
Cincinnati still has that half game lead on Milwaukee for

(23:27):
first place in the NL Central Rangers leave the Al West.
They topped the Tigers ten to three. NHL, the Chicago Blackhawks,
as expected, selected Connor Bedard with the first overall pick
in the NHL draft, and I'm Ducks a little bit surprising,
took Leo Carlson from Sweden at number two, and Adam
fan Tilly, the University of Michigan start many thought would

(23:47):
go number two, ended up going number three to the
Columbus Blue Jackets. And in soccer, the US men's national
team rolled over Saint Kitts and Nevis six to nothing. Apparently,
it's a rule island country in the Caribbean. Really, that's
what I found out because I had I had never
heard of Saint Kitts and Nevis before.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
Saint Kitts and Nevis. Yeah, it's a it's a country.
It's a little tiny couple of islands in the Caribbean,
and he kicked their as in soccer. I thought it
was like a law firm, but he does sound like
the big win, big win for the US men's Yeah
they're back, Eddie.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
The men's soccer is back.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
They beat uh Saint Elms and uh Neville or whatever it's.

Speaker 6 (24:33):
It's I consider myself a bit of a geography nerd,
but it is amazing that there are still a lot
of countries that even somebody who kind of likes to
know about this stuff has no idea actually exists.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
Damn.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
I wonder how much it is the vacation there. I
mean it's in the Caribbean, right, Yeah, it's got to
be nice, got to be all right. Impressive. Good job
US men's national team. And the Gold Cup, which is
like the Double A of soccer tournaments if I'm not mistaken.
But again, what the hell do I know? It is
two pros and a cup of Joe. Here on Fox
Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Jonas Knox with you here. Stick

(25:08):
City is a place, and Stick City is in this
place from my understanding, isn't that right?

Speaker 2 (25:17):
Swinging a miss? All right?

Speaker 1 (25:19):
So we are going to have another edition of a
Cashavistic coming up here in fifteen minutes from now on
Fox Sports Radio from the ti raq dot Com studios,
LeVar Arrington, what's happening, Hi, Jonas, How are we doing?

Speaker 2 (25:31):
How are we feeling?

Speaker 3 (25:32):
You know, just making it work, making it work.

Speaker 7 (25:35):
We're here, Yeah, yeah, thank you.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
Yeah. How's Vegas?

Speaker 3 (25:44):
By the way, it's wonderful.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Now.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Have you seen any NFL players walking to Casino's place
in win total over unders this year?

Speaker 3 (25:54):
Have you?

Speaker 7 (25:54):
No?

Speaker 3 (25:55):
Actually I didn't.

Speaker 7 (25:57):
I did see it, Okay, I didn't see anything anything
peculiar or or actually not peculiar.

Speaker 1 (26:06):
Can I ask you a question? Have you ever seen so?
I don't know if you if you saw it while
you were playing? Obviously in your career you had a
bunch of memorable moments, the leap and everything, which I
wonder if people, Yeah, the Troy Aikman hit, there was
that as well too. Did you Have you ever seen history, though,

(26:26):
like a historic moment in sports up close and personal,
like you saw Bruce Smith's record breaking sound.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
I was there, Yeah, I was there.

Speaker 7 (26:35):
Joe won four four whatever it was four hundred or whatever.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
Who did Joe.

Speaker 7 (26:45):
When Joe Paterno won the wins record? I was on
the field when Bruce Smith broke the sack record. I
actually was part of the play that got him. That's
that that last sact we broke the record, Jonas.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
So, now what was that like being on the fit?
Because the reason I asked this is because Domingo Herman
of the Yankees through the twenty fourth Perfect Game, and
there's probably like an A's fan who showed up to
that game, going, I don't know why you even come
out to these games anymore? Who And now he's a
part of history, that A's fan here, She's a part
of history for the rest of their lives.

Speaker 7 (27:17):
I mean, they can't say they were a part of history.
I don't know how much that that means.

Speaker 3 (27:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
It's something to brag about.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
I saw I saw Ladany and Tomlinson break the single
season touchdown record in person like then there was not
you know, obviously not planned. My girlfriend at the time
was a Chargers fan, so I surprised her and took
her to a Chargers game. It was Chargers Broncos. It
was when I think it was Jay Cutler's rookie year.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
If I'm not mistaken, you know, it's crazy the record.

Speaker 7 (27:46):
You didn't sound not one bit excited. And I didn't
even sound one bit excited, Harry, You tell me, what
do you mean? Like nothing that we just said. The
breaking of the wins record, the breaking up the sack record,
the breaking of the touchdown record.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
It's not exciting.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
But the thing is you saw. I mean, Bruce Smith
has two hundred career sacks. That's correct, which is insane.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
It'll never be broken ever.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
And I remember Marcellus Wiley made the point one time
and it kind of changed how I thought about it.
He said, instead of thinking he got twenty sacks a
year for ten years, think he got ten sacks a
year for twenty years. That is insanity. And you were
there on the field when it happened.

Speaker 7 (28:37):
Yep, I helped. I collapsed the defense or the offensive
tackle down and Bruce stunted off of me and came
came off of the edge behind me to get the sack.
I believe it was. I want to say it was
against Seattle Lee.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Can we double check out who did Bruce Smith sack
for something?

Speaker 7 (29:00):
He might have tied it against Seattle. We might have
broke it the next time. Might it might be? It
might be, But there's like pictures of me like like
jumping on his back and stuff. Because we broke the record.
You know, we got to two hundred?

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Now did he did.

Speaker 3 (29:17):
You notice what I did?

Speaker 2 (29:18):
Of course?

Speaker 3 (29:19):
Yeah, we broke that.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
That's why I always tell people between LeVar and I,
we've been to three Pro Bowls. You know, like you
I just love myself in with I just barnacle off
your career and your success, and that's how it works.

Speaker 7 (29:29):
But I really was there, like you know what I mean,
Like I was really kind of I was there. So
you know, we broke that record. You know, I was
only a part of like five or six of them.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
Now did you guys? Did he give you anything afterwards?
Like a memento?

Speaker 2 (29:42):
Did sign a.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
Coin, a coin, a Sack Record coin?

Speaker 2 (29:47):
He gave you a coin.

Speaker 7 (29:49):
They made somebody made a Sack Record coin and we
redat one.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
How much do you think that is worth? Have you
gotten that appraised? How m you think that is worth?

Speaker 3 (30:00):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (30:01):
Bruce Smith, Sack Record coin considering storage, that's so insulting.
Bruce Smith probably remembers, you know, I gave LeVar a
coin and you've got it at some some useful story.

Speaker 3 (30:14):
I got it. No, No, no.

Speaker 7 (30:16):
Storage. It's not at a place. It's just like it's
it's in a property.

Speaker 2 (30:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Well, listen, congratulations to anybody that got to see history.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
I know there's you know, let us know.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
You can send some tweets in if you've seen history
up close and personal. By the way, I believe Iowa.
Sam's with us here. He actually was there the first
time Iowa scored nine points in a game on offense.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
Yes, that's correct. Yeah, so that was.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
That's really funny.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
That was a huge moment.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
I think it was Sean Green who broke a you know,
thirty two yard touchdown run to set the record.

Speaker 3 (30:49):
There.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
How's that for a little Iowa football knowledge? Sam? Yes,
I think I don't know Iowa good stuff.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Is that true? Did you get excited?

Speaker 2 (30:57):
Sam? Be Sam?

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Have you ever seen the Iowa football history up close
in person, like any historical moment where you're like, I
was there when this happened?

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Actually?

Speaker 8 (31:08):
Yes, So twenty eleven, it was Todd Graham's only season
as the coach of the University of Pittsburgh and they
were at Kinnick Stadium. They got off to a twenty
four to three lead, and Iowa came back in one
thirty one twenty seven is the greatest comeback in Iowa
football history.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
How about that? How about it?

Speaker 3 (31:27):
Todd Graham?

Speaker 8 (31:27):
Yeah, his one year had Pitt was there one Arizona State, Hawaii. Yeah,
he had that little tiny microphone or like the little
headset with a little like Bob Barker microphone, like the
Ted talk microphone.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
Yeah, yeah, he had that. He always walked around with that.
You want to know how I don't know. That was
just his thing. It's like Bob Barker and that skinny mic.
I don't know, it's just his thing. You want to
know how well liked and how successful Todd Graham was
at Hawaii. His own son entered the transfer portal.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
Oh wow, oh wow.

Speaker 3 (32:03):
I was like, yeah, out of there, I thank you.

Speaker 7 (32:07):
I should probably think about going somewhere else. It's probably
the best of situations for me.

Speaker 3 (32:13):
Out of there, Out of there.

Speaker 1 (32:16):

Speaker 3 (34:42):
Shut the sorry sorry, oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
All right, what do we got? All right, guys?

Speaker 9 (34:50):
Well, in case you missed this, more details have come
out about the whole Tyreek Hill incident in Miami. Uh
from the Miami Dade Police Report Department report. We have
learned that after trying to boss his way onto a
docked boat and uh accosting the captain and another fifty
seven year old gentleman who worked on the boat coming

(35:10):
next to him, and then, of course we've all heard
he'll slapping him on the back of the neck.

Speaker 2 (35:13):
What we have since.

Speaker 9 (35:14):
Learned is that he had told a quote unquote associate
to pay this man two hundred dollars, which he then refused.

Speaker 1 (35:20):
I mean, look, it's two hundred bucks. Like that guy's
too good for two hundred bucks. So you got a
little bit of smack on your head. I mean, come on,
did you give a hit hand two hundred dollars bills?

Speaker 7 (35:30):
That sound like something tim that sound like some pampacs
in't me?

Speaker 5 (35:35):
Hey?

Speaker 3 (35:35):
Hey, do you think bitch better had my money?

Speaker 2 (35:38):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Do you think he uh? Do you think he made
it rain when he threw him the two hundred like
he liked. He scanned it at him, and two one
hundred dollars bills flew in the sky all one. Yeah,
oh you think it was all all one. I was
gonna say, like, two hundred dollars is two hundred dollars,
but what like what denomination of the two hundred is
the most insulting because if he somebody a bunch of ones,

(36:01):
it's like, well, it looks like you got a lot
more than you actually have. But I feel like you
if you throw like a five, two tens, a couple
of twenties, then it's kind of like you're you're you're
making an ass out of somebody, Like I wonder what
the denomination was? Do they say what how many you know,
like twenties or was it two hundreds?

Speaker 2 (36:20):
Like how did they Is there any breakdown on that lead?
This is the important stuff here.

Speaker 9 (36:23):
The report does not say, Okay.

Speaker 2 (36:27):
That's just yes, no good, yeah, Sam, We need.

Speaker 3 (36:32):
To know how many big faces was in there?

Speaker 8 (36:34):
Right, Jonas? How about LeVar Lee? How about one hundred
two dollars bills? That'd be fun, right, A two dollars bill?
You don't Clemson fans love the two dollars by the way.
My dad used to collect two dollars dollars he used
to collect. He's got a whole collection of two dollars
bills somewhere, and I just.

Speaker 1 (36:50):
Don't know why. You can ask the bank. Okay, so
it's a payphone.

Speaker 3 (36:56):
I can't use them though, right, you can't use two
dollar bill.

Speaker 2 (36:59):
He used two dollar bills. I use them as tips
and dollar coins.

Speaker 3 (37:02):
You ever use this, You use them as tips?

Speaker 2 (37:05):
Yeah, it's kind of fun. They're like, oh, two dollars bill,
that's cool.

Speaker 3 (37:09):
You're only giving me two dollars. Comes home.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
Keep in mind, this is the same guy who in
his bag at all times has fake dog crap and
a whoopee cushion.

Speaker 2 (37:19):
And that's true.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
That is not a lie. He has props in his
bag at all times. And now, of course he would
have a two dollar bill in his bag for a tip.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
What else does he have in that bag?
