Speaker 1 (00:00):
Two Pros and a cup of Joe. Fox Sports Radio,
Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with you here. Coming up on
this Thursday edition, we are going to talk about a
joint practice in the NFL that saw two stories come
out of it, one potential concern for a Super Bowl
contender and two apparently everybody's on the same page when
it comes to a young NFL star. We'll get into

(00:20):
that for you. We're going to talk about the Eric
b enemy Ron rivera dynamic that's already a disaster. We've
got another edition of In case you missed it, a
story involving butter that's disgusting. We're going to talk about
two stories in the world of college football, one good,
one not so good. We're gonna have another edition of
Headliner Lies it returns after months and months away. We've

(00:41):
also got Albert Breer stopping by, and we've got you
in and you out. It's all yours. Coming up next here,
Two Pros and a cup of Joe on a Thursday,
Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
Yeah, all right, Two pros and a cup of Joe.
Fox Sports Radio, Rady Quinn Jonas Knox with your hair no,
LeVar Arrington, he'll be back next week.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
Just an awful song.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
What's your problem with this song? You didn't like the
last one I picked either.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Yeah, it sounds like the same thing. I get it.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
I feel like that's misrepresenting a genre of music and
just sort of labeling one is all that is? That
is not the case.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Is this closer to what you guys played for a dishevel?

Speaker 1 (01:29):
No? No, I wouldn't say that. You know, some elements
maybe a little bit of this, a little bit of that.
You know, it's a quarterback play. You take what you like. Hey, yeah,
I like what that guy does with his feet. That
guy's certainly take what you like.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
You take what the defense gives you.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
Okay, that's fair. Let me tell you what the defense
gave us as a band. Not a whole hell of
a lot. That's why I'm doing this. So that's about
how that worked, and the whole pay to play thing.
Back in the day where if you wanted to play
a venue like the Whiskey, you had to pay, well, no,
you had to sell a certain amount of tickets. You'd
have to pay up front, and they would say, all right,

(02:06):
so you've got to sell.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
So you guys would have to buy your own tickets.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Base basically, yeah, and so we'd be responsible for that,
and we'd have to pay the money upfront and whatever
we didn't sell. If we didn't sell all our tickets,
we would have lost money. And I got news for you.
We never sold all our tickets. So all we did
was lose our ass every time we had a show.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
How did you go about selling your tickets?

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Ope, friends and family know some people that we don't. Hey, hey,
you got anybody that would be interested in going? Nope?
All right, Well they're ten bucks. Would you mind throwing
me at twenty? And here's two and we'll just see
if you can figure out whether or not you can
give it to somebody else. It was just, you know,
pretty makeshift, but hey, did the best we could. Yeah,

(02:51):
and you know what, I got a tattoo out of
the whole deal. So that's fun. That's fun to walk
around with that in your thirties and forties. That's all
we good. A good conversation starter.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
But well, look, I mean those tickets they were probably
in good hands, right because they were in someone who
least cared about you. They were trying to bring someone
along with them and if not, the least they'd come.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
To support you.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Yeah, that's true, That is true. And you know who's
here to support you, ty Iraq, because we're doing this
show live from the ti rack dot com studios. Tirac
dot com will help you get there and unmatched selection,
fast free shipping, free road has a protection at over
ten thousand recommended installers ti raq dot com the way
tire buying should be. So how about the NFL trying

(03:32):
to get us to be interested in episode two of
Hard Knocks. You know some of the reports out there
from Jets and Panthers joint practices where you've got Aaron
Rodgers frustrated with just the tempo and maybe the pace
of practice and just the fluidity of how the offense
is working. So you know that's going to be a
large portion of episode two. And my big question is

(03:55):
how long before the honeymoon's over? And Rogers just says, hey, guys,
enough with the crap, Enough with guys talking about Carcucci boards.
We got a season coming up and there's people that
are expecting us to be at least a playoff team,
if not a little bit more.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
Yeah, I think the tough thing for him is, and
you don't really probably realize this, or at least he
hasn't to this point, is you would build up the
Green Bay Packers to be a team that every year
was looked at as a contender.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
That has not been the Jets franchise.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
I mean that they have the longest playoff drought in
the NFL or in the NFL right now.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
And I think it's professional sports. Okay, well professional sports
for that matter, because when the Sacramento Kings made them playoffs, just.

Speaker 4 (04:44):
Right, that's right. Well, but take this into account. Okay,
he's making a transition. There's all this different energy and
excitement about him being there and to being a part
of it. And there's players who are signing on that
he knows or has history with, whether it's Cobb or
Lazard whoever else. So there's all those excitement, there's.

Speaker 3 (05:05):
What is New York.

Speaker 4 (05:06):
He was making his public appearances, and then you get
down to football, and then you start to realize the
task that he's got, and that is trying to get
a young group, a very talented young group of players
to realize their potential and to execute the way you
have to, especially situationally and I think the defense last

(05:30):
year probably displayed that ability, but the offense is not there.
And I think there has to be the sense of urgency.
There has to be the sense of every day we
got to be getting a little bit better. And I
don't know that they've necessarily had that from a leader,
especially at the quarterback spot. I could say I know that,
and now he's seeing it and going, oh man, this

(05:50):
might be a little bigger undertaking than I thought, and
that will remind people in Green Bay they used.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
To start off slow.

Speaker 4 (05:59):
And if you could bring to bring up the beginning
of the Jets schedule, because it's a pretty tough schedule
to start the season.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
But traditionally, when you remember the whole.

Speaker 4 (06:06):
Relax and like all the stuff that he would say,
that was all born out of a slow start to
the beginning of the season with obviously high expectations. I mean,
the Jets, between their schedule and the expectations now, could
be in a very similar boat. And I think he's
looking at that's probably saying himselves, I don't want to
have to keep going through this every single season where

(06:27):
we get off to a slow start. We have to
make this improbable run in the second half of the
season and get into the playoffs. I mean, that's how
they won the Super Bowl. They had to win their
last three or four games.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
Just to get into the playoffs.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
I mean even last year, after they got kind of
copp behind, they had to go on this improbable run
and they almost did it, didn't quite do it in
the end. I just think that in and of itself
gets tiring, exhausting, and he's and he's too an age
now where he's probably going, Yeah, I don't want it
to be that way. I'd love to be a part
of one of the dominant teams where we're kind of
cruising in November December and not like clinching and hoping

(07:03):
we could just make it through.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
So you mentioned the schedule for the New York Jets.
It goes like this, the Buffalo Bills at home on
Monday night football at the Dallas Cowboys, home against New England,
home against Kansas City at Denver, and then home against
Philly and then you get your bye week.

Speaker 3 (07:26):
I mean, think about that schedule.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
The two teams that were in the Super super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
You know how many division opponents you just.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Mentioned, Yeah, Patriots, are you Patriots?

Speaker 5 (07:35):
Bills?

Speaker 1 (07:35):
As a division opponents, so the Bills were a playoff team,
Cowboys were a playoff team, and the Chiefs.

Speaker 4 (07:42):
And then you go to Denver early the season, which
isn't to It wasn't easy, right, you know at altitude
were expecting them to be improved with Sean Payton there
and now you know, helping things out.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
So emotions are going to run high because all the
trash talk. Yeah, it's uh. I mean when New England
is the easiest portion or your schedule and who the
hell knows, and we know Belichick's track record against the Jets.
I mean, New England's the easiest portion of your schedule
before you get to your bye week.

Speaker 6 (08:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
I do think that that's a good point. It kind
of gets lost in the shuffle of Hey, everybody's excited,
and then you realize what the task is the first
seven weeks of the season before or first six games
of the season before you get to your bye that's what.

Speaker 4 (08:25):
And I think in Green Bay when you would fall
behind a little bit or maybe get off to a
slower start and he goes relax, you know, it's like, well, yeah,
we've seen him do this before. The Jets and their
fan base. They don't have that same equity build in
in their minds. They're thinking, here we go again, like
this is just another team that was compiled together that

(08:48):
spends a lot of money and they're not gonna be
able to achieve anything.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
Now.

Speaker 4 (08:52):
Look, I think the Jets are a playoff team. I
think they could even win the division. Like I would
take the over of their their win total for the
season and win which I think is set in like
nine and a half, and like, I think, I think
they're going to be a playoff team. And then they
get like I said, they could be within the division,
but they have a brutal schedule to start off, and

(09:13):
you can understand why, Like this early in training camp,
before we get the preseason games, Rodgers is probably showing
a little bit of frustration because the first chance you
get to see what your O line looks like against
another team, which the Carolina Panthers, who they did joint
practices with, they have a solid.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
Defense, and so I'm sure there's a sense of frustration there.

Speaker 4 (09:33):
There's a there's a competitive edge there too, or he's
expecting saying the Panthers aren't expecting to be a playoff team.
I think they will be when it's all said done
in the NFC. But I think he's looking at saying himself,
if our standard is a super Bowl or playoffs, like
we've got to raise the standard of how we're practicing
and how we're competing.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
Then I also think this is by far and away
the best division he's ever played in without your out,
because without a doubt, you always could count on a
couple of extra bye weeks with the Bears and the Lions,
and now you can't anymore because they're all gone.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
Do you know what the win loss total is projected
for New England right now?

Speaker 1 (10:09):
New England? Off the top of my head, I believe
it's seven and a half. The Jets are nine and
a half.

Speaker 3 (10:14):
Jets are nine and a half, The Bills are what
ten and a half?

Speaker 1 (10:17):
Yes, I believe, so I believe the Bills are ten
and a half.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
And then what do you have the Dolphins at nine
and a half?

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Hold on, I say, you know the Wi Fi works here,
Give me a second. Let me just efforting here, I mean.

Speaker 3 (10:27):
But even then, like, I'm pretty sure it's around nine nine.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
And a half, Buffalo ten and a half. And then
Miami is who is the is projected to be Yeah,
nine and a half for Miami.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
Think about that for a second, Like you could have
you could have three of the teams go nine and eight,
nine and eight and ten and seven. We all hit
the unders, which I don't think is gonna happen. I
would take the over. I would actually take the over
of Buffalo.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
New York and New England. I don't know about Miami.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
I'm a little concerned, like with their offensive line play,
the two injury hit. I mean, he's always had an
injury history, and if look, I'll say this, if he
has another head injury potential and you think the NFL
is not like you got to take him out or
the Dolphins don't feel the pressure to take him out immediately,
even if he feels fine and tries to tell the

(11:16):
team he feels fine.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
After what happened last year, there's no way, no way.

Speaker 4 (11:23):
And then they brought it Mike White, who Jets fans
are familiar with, but is a little more inexperience as
compared to some of the other guys they have out there.
I mean, when I look at like Matt Ryan's still
a free agent right now, way more experience and people
can use whatever they won off of last year in Indy.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
That was a clown show with what was happening in Indianapolis.

Speaker 4 (11:47):
He's a more experienced, betteran backup that would make sense
to have behind Tua or any of the other guys
like Teddy Bridgewhard just signed in Detroit. I know he
was there and people are looking he could still hill.
He had a concussion, right, Like, that's part of it.
Like Bridgewater's played a lot of good football. There's a
number of quarterbacks that could have been signed there that

(12:07):
would have made sense.

Speaker 3 (12:09):
And I'm not saying like.

Speaker 4 (12:10):
Mike White doesn't have the opportunity to prove himself, but
those other guys are a lot more proven, especial wh
You're talking about a league MVP and Matt Ryan. So look,
maybe they still can't sign him. I just live looking
at it and go, I'm like, that's a really, really
tough division. If you've got three teams that you're basically saying,
if they hit the over by one, they're in double
digit wins.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
Yeah, that's gonna be fun to watch. So it's understandable
why Rogers would have a little bit of a red
ass potentially a practice Yeah, Hey, you know those red
asses go man, they spark up this time of year,
a lot of pressure on a lot of people. It

I'm Jonas Knox with the Youth.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
You got one?

Speaker 1 (14:13):
What are you talking about? I know everything about one twelve? Okay, Yeah,
I think my buddy gave me a CD of one twelve.

Speaker 4 (14:22):
That's not usually how it works. Usually you give it
to a girlfriend or something like that.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
Yeah, I don't know. I think he just didn't want
it anymore, so he gave it to me. Yeah, but whatever, maga.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
See Todd gave me Lee Now one twelve album.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
But that's fair.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
But Todd seems Wally a Kings of Leon type guy, you.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
Know, hell well, yeah, of course. I mean he did
karaoke on the show, singing Kings of Leon.

Speaker 3 (14:45):
That's true. That's true, or.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Kol as some people call it. You know, no one
calls that, well, that's not what I heard. Todd actually
brought in a snack when he did come into studio.
He brought in uh dunk dunk a ruse, which I.

Speaker 3 (15:01):
Haven't heard of dunker rus since I was a kid.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
I didn't even know they still were. They were sold anywhere.
They had dust on the wrapper, like I don't know.
He pulled him out of some homeless encampment and said,
you might have borrow this for a minute. I got
to bring at least a gift, and he gave him
to me, and I said, thanks, man, And I just
you know what a guy, Yeah, what a guy is?
He is a hell of a guy. So old dunker

(15:24):
rouse from Todd Lee, You a dunk a ho guy.

Speaker 5 (15:27):
I used to be a dunker ru guy for sure.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
I don't think I've ever had in my life, and
I definitely didn't have those. No offense to Todd, he's
not listening anyways. But nonetheless, it is two pros and
a cup of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio. So
coming up in we'll call it a little over twenty
minutes from now, a disgusting tribute to a Hall of Famer.
If you doubt that, we've got the proove that a

(15:52):
little over twenty minutes from now. So we were talking
yesterday about this situation in Washington for the Commandos, where
Ron Rivera had some comments that went in public and
talking to the media about Eric B Enemy and Eric
Benemy's treatment of players thus far, and players possibly complaining
about that Eric B enemy and in a very humble approach,

(16:15):
talked about how Eric Benemy is this and Eric Benemy
is that? So when full third person, well, of course
the media pushed back and thought that Ron Rivera was
throwing Eric B Enemy under the bus, and then maybe
he was throwing his players under the bus. So Ron Rivera,
reading a prepared statement yesterday to open up training camp,

(16:35):
had this to say about the situation.

Speaker 7 (16:38):
We talked about it, and it was just I basically
told him, I put my foot in my mouth. I
think what I said wasn't as clear as it needed
to be, and I think the understanding of it is
just the fact that I think everybody's making, in my opinion,
a little bit more than needs to be made of this,
because again, the results of what you're looking for on
the field so far the last couple of days, I'm

(17:00):
an outstanding I think Eric has done a great job
of communicating his message.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
So that was Ronriverta explaining his side of how things
maybe got misinterpreted when it came to the situation in Washington.
I mean, it did feel at the time like it
was much to do about nothing. Maybe some people in
the media had a narrative they were still holding on
to from Eric B. Enemy's job interview days in Kansas City.
But the fact that Ron Rivera has got to prepare

(17:24):
a statement, have to go over this for a second
day in a row, have the conversation with the media again,
it just feels like we're already at a point where
things are weird between those two just weird.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
Here's what I don't know.

Speaker 4 (17:38):
I don't know if someone within their media department had
come up to him and is basing that statement that
he had to open up with yesterday on the reaction
via social media, you know, every other platform you want
to discuss, and that's what that was, what provoked it,

(17:59):
or if it was born out of a conversation he
had with Eric B.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
Enemy basically who saw what he said and was like, hey.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
Man, why are you you know, why you bring this
up or what made you say what you said, because
there's there's two different reasons for it.

Speaker 3 (18:17):
If it's Eric B.

Speaker 4 (18:18):
Enemy coming up and basically saying to Ron Rivera like
you know how to appreciate how you differentiated me from
Jack del Rio and why you had to talk about
my coaching side of.

Speaker 3 (18:27):
It, that's different.

Speaker 4 (18:29):
But it also lends you to have an idea of
who has ultimately control with that building because of the
enemy being the higher the kind of media darling to
try to become a head coach, and if he could
make the head coach come out and make a statement
before he, you know, has to do his interviews for

(18:50):
the following day of the.

Speaker 3 (18:51):
Media, like that's that's power. You immediately have power of
your head coach.

Speaker 4 (18:56):
Or that's one way of looking at if it was
born out of purely just the rabbit ears that you
know that the Washington organization has for the media, that's
almost even a more slippery slope because now you're paying
attention to too many people that don't really have your
best interest in mind and an agenda that doesn't matter

(19:19):
right like like they're hoping that Eric B. Enemy does
well so it gets a head coaching job, or Ron
Rivera fails, so he gets that head coaching job. There
is a faction of the media that wants that to happen.
It's the most bizarre thing. And that's why you gotta
be careful about the people who give you advice of

(19:39):
how you want to handle things, because the more attention
that you pay to it, the more you stoke those flames.
Like it really, if he didn't bring anything up yesterday
and then make a statement, we would be talking.

Speaker 3 (19:51):
About it today what we at all?

Speaker 4 (19:53):
No, But now it becomes a talking point because you're like,
what is going on there? Dan Snyder's not there anymore
yet it's still feels like you've got this unrest, this
this odd situation within the coaching staff now. And that
was the one that was the one side of that
that you know, organization or a department of the organization
that was operating relatively well from all accounts at least.

(20:17):
But this Alex sam Howe is gonna be a starter.
He is a young player. You basically could call him
a rookie even though he's not right. He's going to
the second year, but he doesn't have a lot of
you know, playing experience. Talented guy. They've got a they've
got a more talented roster than I think a lot
of people give him credit. But if this thing doesn't
go well, despite the fact that it could be the

(20:38):
offense's fault. And by the way, it's the first year
with a new offense, there's gonna be some growing pains.
You know, you have a young quarterback, there's going to
be some growing pains that he experiences in the NFL.
Yet instead of putting the figure Eric b enemy, the
figure is going to be pointing.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
To Ron Rivera. And you already get that sense based
on how things have operated through the media during this
training camp.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
And it's unfortunate cause Ron is one of the best
people in football, period, yeah and period.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
And he was also the one that gave Eric Benemy
the opportunity to be an offensive coordinator and supported the
idea of Okay, yeah, I want to bring him in.
I like his work and I want him to have success.
And then we're not even at the first preseason game
for Washington where a couple of days from it, and
he's got to print out a statement to read to

(21:29):
make sure that everybody was okay with what he had
to say previously when he was just telling the truth
about Eric B Enemy and his coachings, Like the whole thing.
It just feels like a clown show. And I've wondered
about this as well too, just in thinking on how
this whole situation has played out, because we've talked about
how sometimes you can be too loud as a backup,
you know, Tim Tebow, Cam Newton, Colin Kaepernick, Like there's

(21:53):
some personalities that maybe aren't ideal for a backup role
because they get too much attention. I wonder if the
Enemy is entering that territory to where maybe there's just
too much noise, and not that it's totally his fault,
but that people have rallied around this idea of Eric
B Enemy, that maybe there were just some coaches like

(22:15):
Andy Reid could drown it out because it's Andy Reid's
team and you've got Patrick Row. But it just feels
like it's too loud already and we're not even at
the first preseason game. Dude, Like none of it makes
sense to me. I don't get it, and Ron Vera's
got to answer questions about it.

Speaker 4 (22:31):
If only we could get some insight into how Eric
Beenemy sounds when he doesn't interview you know, like how
he talks about I guess his coaching style or himself.
If only we had some sound that we could play
from that.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Yeah, listen. I mean that's the one thing about Eric
B Enemy For a lot of people that have never
heard Eric Beenemy talk. I mean, the first thing you
think about is humility, and the second thing you think
about is we not me? And again, if you doubt that,
take a listen.

Speaker 8 (23:00):
Yes, I am intense and I would be afraid to
the start if I didn't know him. Eric B Enemy
is who he is. Okay, Eric Beenemy knows how to
adapt and adjust. Eric Jannemey is a tough, hard nosed coach,
but also understand I'm gonna be the biggest and harshest critic,

(23:20):
but I'm also the number one fan because I've got
day back and I'm gonna support them at all time.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
Hey, Sam, how long is that clip? What are we
looking at? Time?

Speaker 3 (23:30):
Why?

Speaker 5 (23:30):
Twenty five seconds?

Speaker 1 (23:31):
Twenty five?

Speaker 3 (23:32):
That would just do it just real quick. That was
Eric Vietnam talking about Eric Bjeenemy, just confirming that. Yes.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
Yeah, so basically at a twenty five second clip, we've
got third person reference three times, so every eight seconds
it's like riding a bowl in a rodeo. Every eight seconds,
Eric Vieennemy is gonna mention Eric Enemy, that's impressive, really impressive. Man.
Have you ever gone third person?

Speaker 3 (23:55):
No?

Speaker 4 (23:56):
Nor will I ever, And if I do, it's only
in satire, all right, It's only in a joking manner
where I'm making fun of either myself or someone else
for doing it. I listen to that and I go,
that's someone who's got an ego. But that's that's someone
who walks into an organization. And the toughest part about
that is, like you have a you have a type

(24:18):
of coach nowadays that when you have young players, especially
that come into the league, you're trying to base everything.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
And work everything around their talents and.

Speaker 4 (24:26):
Their ability, and you're gonna, you know, you're gonna look
for ways of utilizing them like chess pieces within the
system you run. And it almost feels like Eric Banemy
is going to be the type that says, this is
my system. You fit in it, or you don't fit
in at all, and you need to get out. And
in today's NFL, it just does not work that way.

(24:48):
It just doesn't. And I'll be really curious to see
how this year goes offensively. And I think a lot
of people are gonna make excuses for them, to make
excuses about, you know the fact that it is the
first year and off and so that's that's pretty legitimate.
They'll make excuses that Sam Howe's at quarterback, and you know,
they'll discredit him probably or they'll utilize his inexperience. And

(25:08):
I just mentioned that a minute ago. That's that's that's
somewhat real. But no one's going to point to his
play calling. No one's going to a point to his
coach anything else. They're not going to be critical of
him if this thing fails.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
What a weird spot for Ron Rivera to be in.

Speaker 4 (25:25):
I know, you know what the worst part is is
it's a bad spot for the Washington Commander's fan base.
I mean, they have gone through so much and yet
there's still, even with a new organization. Dan Sneider out
the potential for a disastrous year because the drama that
could ensue in the coaching staff.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
Right, it's like you think, all right, you know, we've
got we've got an issue in the home. We've got
a leak upstairs in the bathroom at least we got
that figured out. And uh, never mind the fact that
there's like a rotting corpse in the basement that you
didn't know about when you moved in. It's like, okay,
well now when yeah, we got that to worry about,
Like they can't catch a break man, Like this organization
is doomed and little Danny's gets over six billion dollars

(26:08):
sitting on a yacht somewhere going, hey, not my problem anymore.
You guys figured this thing out. So that's the fun
stuff there for the Washington commanders. By the way, speaking
of fun stuff, how about ti Iraq. Be sure to
enter the Summer of ti Iraq sweepstakes. And congratulations to

buying should be. The hell's going on with Kareem Hunt? Like,

(27:11):
don't I don't get it?

Speaker 3 (27:12):
So, I mean, you don't hear about this very often.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
Typically when you hear a player leave one visit as
a free agent and go somewhere else, they sign like
they're not leaving that opportunity in front.

Speaker 3 (27:25):
Of them to go somewhere else.

Speaker 4 (27:28):
But I mean, it appears and an odd thing about
them even looking at Kareem Hunt when after they already
signed Kenyan Drake as a veteran running back who's very capable.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
It only leads me to think one of two things.

Speaker 4 (27:43):
Either they found out through Creem Hunt's physical there's something
more there that they don't feel comfortable about, so they
can't agree to the contract that they were initially had
said to him and his agent, right, there's that element
of it, Or there's the potential chance that they've been
talked with Jonathan Taylor. Maybe they feel a little bit
about better about where they're at there, and then getting

(28:04):
him to come back and play the season whatever that
may be, maybe a restructured you know, extension or just
getting him to come back, and you know they feel
better about where he's at with the ankle quote unquote injury.
He's still recovering from. So one of those two things happened,
but either way bizarre. And then you almost if your
Kareem Hunt have to look at your agent and be like, dude,

(28:26):
you have me leave New Orleans to go to Indianapolis
and I still don't have a deal.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
But you know, he's just shopping around like, hey, you know,
I'll come out for a visit, not ready to sign,
but you know, I'll take a look. You know, we'll
see what happens here. I'll go through your workouts and
anybody else want to offer me more? And just I
just assumed when he left New Orleans without a deal
and he was going for more money, that would be
the place he would go, that.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
New Orleans deal.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
Yeah, but apparently not so the Kareem Hunt sweepstakes out
of nowhere.

Speaker 4 (28:59):
Just vintage Colts though, right, Yeah, I mean, you just
you never know what you're going to get, you know,
that Colts are kind of like a Bucks of chocolates.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Jim Mersy is like, did I say, sue million? I
met one point five?

Speaker 4 (29:14):
Apologies knowing him, he probably like added a zero.

Speaker 3 (29:17):
What he didn't mean to?

Speaker 1 (29:18):
Oh yeah, I mean you can't trust anybody that's doing.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
Two million, two hundred thousand.

Speaker 4 (29:22):
They're like, Jim, we can't even pay him that his
veterans salary is higher than that. Oh well, crap, just uh,
I don't know. My band's getting ready to start here
in a minute. Let me just uh, just just you
guys figure it out, all right.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
We're not gonna sign them.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
Guys.

Speaker 4 (29:38):
Guys, guys, guys.

Speaker 1 (29:42):
I'm a rain maker there he is.

Speaker 3 (29:45):
Yeah, he might be my favorite owner in the NFL.

Speaker 7 (29:48):
Guys.

Speaker 1 (29:49):
Yeah, I'm never quite sure how it's gonna go with
jimry No.

Speaker 4 (29:52):
But on top of that, like he loves his team though,
I mean to a degree. I mean obviously, if he
wasn't here tomorrow and someone was in the league, you know,
different story. But I do feel like he does try
to do what's in the best interest of his team,
aside from a few comments he's made publicly.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
Okay, so let me ask you this do you think
if you pulled Jim Mersey aside and said, hey, we're
going to get you another super Bowl, but it's going
to come at a cost, you can never go to
happy hour again. Do you think Jim Mersey signs up
for that super Bowl and no more happy hour?

Speaker 3 (30:25):
Or do we define go to happy hour?

Speaker 1 (30:28):
Well, you know, I mean, let's just do.

Speaker 3 (30:30):
He's going to TGA Fridays or.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
Something happy anywhere, can't go to happy hour anywhere.

Speaker 4 (30:34):
I don't think he mind's drinking alone. I mean I
think I think he'd still take the super Bowl over that.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
You think?

Speaker 9 (30:39):
So?

Speaker 3 (30:39):
Yeah, because his happy hour might begin at like ten am?

Speaker 1 (30:43):
Yeah, that's true. And most happy hours are what three
to six, four to seven something?

Speaker 4 (30:47):
Well, Lee knows better than anyone else. I mean five
o'clock summer, right, lely.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
Lee, happy hour times one of those?

Speaker 10 (30:53):
Usually my favorite button near me is two to six,
which is great, of course, Lee, of course it is.

Speaker 3 (30:59):
That hold on? Is that like the time of day
to which you go.

Speaker 5 (31:04):
Sometimes? Yeah, we we have very different schedules here.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
That's true, That's true.

Speaker 5 (31:09):
I gotta you know, do you.

Speaker 4 (31:13):
And Todd basically justify having a drink at any hour
of the day on the fact that you are big
Jimmy Buffett fans and it is five o'clock somewhere.

Speaker 5 (31:22):
Absolutely okay, And that's.

Speaker 3 (31:25):
Not a bad life motto.

Speaker 1 (31:26):
That's fine, that's fair.

Speaker 10 (31:28):
People don't understand. You know, we were off work here
what seven am Pacific time?

Speaker 4 (31:32):
Yeah, yeah, you're you're you're happy hour, you're five pm
whatever time is, like, well eleven am.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
And by the way, Lee and Iowa Sam have been
trying to scout out places that will serve like a
Bloody mary or something at this time in the morning.
And I don't think anywhere other than Burbank Airport is
serving Bloody Mary's at this early in the morning. What's
up with that?

Speaker 3 (31:51):
True, it's gotta be a diner somewhere that sells alcohol.

Speaker 1 (31:53):
You guys have looked right hard alcohol at seven in
the morning. It's hard to come by.

Speaker 3 (31:57):
Dude. We got a spot in near.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
We're in for Lauderdale or oh yeah, oh yeah, you
got us fine for Lauderdale.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
We got a diet it's been around forever.

Speaker 1 (32:07):
And the serving booze, oh they.

Speaker 5 (32:09):
Got bo that's literally Margueritaville down there.

Speaker 3 (32:13):
You know, there is a Margaritaville down there at least
been to that one, I think, right.

Speaker 5 (32:16):
Lee, I'm making my way. I'm checking them off.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
Unfortunately, I think there's a shooting down there recently.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
Nice. That's good at any of the story.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
Apparently the Jimmy Buffet fans get a little wild.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
Well, now we know we're getting leave for Christmas. A
bulletproof vest and a parron on his shoulder, and he's fine.
Just walk right in there and just deal with the repercussions.
You'll be good.

Speaker 9 (32:37):
Lee.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Uh, it is Two Pros and a Cup of Joe
here on Fox somewhere, all right. So coming up next,
we're going to talk about one of the more disgusting
tributes to a Hall of Famer we have ever seen,

Speaker 1 (34:07):
There's not a human being under the age of fifty
five who enjoys this song.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
I mean, technically Lee and Todd would be those people.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
Yeah, but they're old souls.

Speaker 4 (34:19):
Okay, there might be some other old souls out there.
It's good like boat music.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
Yeah, that's what.

Speaker 4 (34:24):
I Just don't know what Lee's doing when he's walking
around on asphalt all day and listen.

Speaker 3 (34:29):
To Jimmy Buffett it is. Maybe that's where you'd rather be, huh.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
Although we did, although he did fill me in on
the occasion he picks when he listens.

Speaker 5 (34:39):
To that song, So a shower song right there?

Speaker 1 (34:43):
Yeah, so when he showers.

Speaker 3 (34:46):
I do not want to know anything more.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Has a Jimmy Buffett's song? Like, what if, for whatever
reason the internet shuts down? Does your shower less effective
because you don't have It's five o'clock somewhere from old
James Buffett playing.

Speaker 5 (35:03):
I'll just I'll just belt it out myself.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
Okay, how many Jimmy Buffett concerts have you been to, Lee.

Speaker 5 (35:10):
I've only been to one? One or yeah, one or two?

Speaker 1 (35:13):
One?

Speaker 3 (35:14):
Really?

Speaker 1 (35:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (35:14):
Well, I went to Vegas twice for Jimmy Buffett and
he canceled on the first one.

Speaker 5 (35:19):
Oh okay, health reasons.

Speaker 1 (35:21):
But as far as the restaurant goes, you've been to
several Oh yes, yeah, all right.

Speaker 10 (35:25):
And I've listened to the whole catalog up and down
the coast with Todd on cassette players.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
Yeah, that's the most important thing. It is two pros

For that, we turn it back over to our executive producer,
Lead Lap.

Speaker 10 (36:23):
Good morning everybody, Good morning Jonas, Good morning Brady Big.
We have a story from the great state of Iowa today.
If you happen to be planning on going to the
Iowa State, Hey Brady, you are in for a treat.
You will be able to cat uh find a butter statue,
a three hundred pound butter statue of University of Northern

(36:45):
Iowa alumnus Kurt Warner.

Speaker 5 (36:48):
Yeah on display next to a butter cow. So yeah,
good job there.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
So I'm looking at this thing.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
Did Kurt Warner make that himself for?

Speaker 1 (36:58):
Uh?

Speaker 10 (36:58):
No, some students from the uh, students from you and
I put it together.

Speaker 3 (37:02):
It's too I just didn't know sometimes you know.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
So, yeah, Kurt likes to uh to scold himself that
that's one of the things, you know, and I don't about it.

Speaker 3 (37:13):
It's not like I.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
Saw. So I'm seeing here they used about two hundred
and fifty to three hundred pounds of butter or a
thousand sticks of butter to complete the full standing portrait.
Are you a butter guy, Brady Quinn.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
Yes, I am. I love butter all right. I think
I usually try to cook with it. I feel like
it's uh.

Speaker 4 (37:33):
Some people will try to deny the fact that it's
not a healthy option. I would disagree in the sense
of there's a lot of the crap that people use
to like cook with or to like, you know, lubricate
their pans.

Speaker 3 (37:46):
Like butter is natural. Just go up the natural stuff.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
Yeah, A nice little uh, just a square of butter
in the pan when you make some eggs or something.

Speaker 3 (37:54):
Yeah, that's all I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
Yeah, there is there's but I feel like you can
go too far with butter, Like you can use too much.
Like if you butter a piece of bread and it's
too much, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (38:07):
It depends on the type of bread.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
If you get a good piece of bread and a
lot of butter, I don't know, if you get butter,
it's too much.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
I mean, one of the easiest go to's if you
want to have like just some sort of Italian knight,
if you're doing pasta now, you buy one of those
like foot long loafs of bread, cut it in half,
spread some butter on it, and then throw like a
little bit of maybe garlic salt or something like that,
throw it in the oven, and then it comes out.
You got some nice, toasty garlic bread.

Speaker 3 (38:33):
Does suck good.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
Butter's underrated, man, that's really underrated. It's been really disrespected
by a lot of these fancy options out there, like
avocado oil and all the other crap. Yeah, it's really
too bad.

Speaker 3 (38:45):
That's probably with Sam us Is.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Yeah, Sam a big butter guy. I hate butter. I
hate butter. Yeah really, yeah, I'm joking.

Speaker 5 (38:55):
I love butter.

Speaker 1 (38:56):
Yeah, So there's your butter up.

Speaker 3 (38:57):
I bet you Buttercup.

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating.

Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
