Speaker 3 (00:34):
Is not your things?
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Is nine am Eastern time, six o'clock Pacific, but out
here it's two pm in Ireland and then you guys
can figure it out from there. I have no idea
what it is in the last.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Une in Ireland.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yeah, it is newone in Ireland. But I'm saying we
go up until two o'clock. Take it all the way
up until two o'clock. But we do it all live
from the tire rack dot Com studios tire rack dot Com.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Free Road has a section at over ten thousand recommended

Speaker 2 (01:03):
The way tire buying should be.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
As we mentioned, Notre Dame is well represented here in
the great city of Dumblin, Ireland.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
You're gonna kick some ass on Saturdays. Oh yeah, yeah, Now, look,
it'll be respectful ass kicking because these young men from navy,
all right, they are will one day be protecting our
great country, the United States. I'd not being said, though,
that is not mean that we shouldn't absolutely go out
there and kick their ass.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
All right, that's a great Hey, you know what, there's
some talk there. I'm already quit. Everybody.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
You want to respectfully, but you want to make sure
you give them a beat down.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Hey, it's like I always say, play like a champion today,
you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Right, that's what you're doing is how you do right? Which,
by the way, how did I tear my rotator cuff
my sleep?
Speaker 3 (01:52):
I don't talk to me about that.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
What sort of dream did I have where I tore
my rotator cuff? What was it doing?
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Probably one where we're lee met a waitress who had
a draft tattoo on her forearm.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I think something like that.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
She had yet Appay, she was very nice.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Fatbe Why you took a picture of that? I still
try to figure out. It's like, like you sent me
six photos from like today, last we sight seeing, I
get a picture of a waitress with a draft tattoo.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
There was a reason at the time, but I do
not remember what.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
She was very nice, she was awesome, she had she
had a draft tattoo on her arm, and hey, I
worked it toys for us for a time.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
You know, so there's that I've fed a draft before,
did you really? Yeah, it was weird.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
They have like gray tongues. Yeah, yeah, not what I thought. Yeah,
it is a little weird. Yeah yeah, but you know what,
who cares?
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Here's what I care about, the fact that we couldn't
be here without the tremendous support from our sponsors. Panini
Trading Cards, the official trading cards of Fox Sports Radios.
Air Lingus series coverage live here from Dublin. Obviously air Lingus,
as we mentioned, they flew us to Dublin incredible combinations.
Horizon Therapeutics, where science and compassion work together to transform lives,
(03:04):
will be attending the Horizon Therapeutics tailgate party before the
game on Saturday. And then of course Budweiser, who made
our broadcast today possible here live from Buskers Bar in Dublin.
Fantastic accommodations all the way around, everybody who made this possible.
We can't tell you how much we appreciate it. Now
that being said, we transition over to the NFL, where
(03:26):
we have got ourselves a deadline, the Indianapolis Colts, whose
owner is still mourning the death of a whale.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Not making that up, just.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Saying, can you set the scene here a deadline for what?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Well?
Speaker 3 (03:44):
I just wanted to point that out. I mean, you
know the way, I'll understand. But he's setting a deadline
for Jonson Taylor.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I got news for you. I lost all sympathy the
second I saw Free Willie. The movie stunk and all
that did, all that did was just steer me in
the opposite direction here.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
But no, I think, okay, here's the scenario. Okay, the
whale dying. Actually, I think has now made Jimmersy realize
he can't just do things on his own time frame.
You're right, but he needs to set a death These
things tend to die.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Then that's a great point, because Indianapolis and jim irsay
they've given Jonathan Taylor a Tuesday deadline to find a
trade partner. Now, reportedly six teams have reached out, two
have engaged with offers, one of them being the Dolphins,
which is appropriate considering this guy still mourning the death
of a whale that Dolphins ship.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Him off Yeah, yeah, to the destination you're supposed to
pick up the whale exactly.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
So, so that does make all the sense in the world.
But uh, just the fact that they're giving him this
deadline is hilarious to me. It's like, why would you
do that?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Look, there's a lot of things that jim Irsay does
that we really can't make much sense of. I mean,
first off, I'm shocked he's not here in Ireland with
the Tree Leaders.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
See, yeah, he might be. This seems like his type
of place.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
It's issues well yeah, I mean, is there a trash
bag back there?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Anybody got any where's the uh where's that at?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
But just the idea that you think, like they screwed
this whole thing up from the get go. As we've
talked about, we've chronicled that on this show, they screwed
it up.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Like when you're running back once more money.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
He wants a better contract, and instead of talking it out,
you have some meeting with him and then sit down
on the back of a golf cart in Indianapolis and go, well,
I mean listen, uh, I could die tomorrow. Jonathan Taylor
be out of the league. Nobody cares. Boy, that's comforting,
man like boy. That boy, Boy, that makes me feel
great about things. So he screwed that up from the
get go. Jonathan Taylor doesn't want to play there anymore.
(05:48):
He took it personal for a good reason, and so
that now they're going to drop this. Well, you've got
to do a Tuesday deadline. You want to get a
deal done, get one done by tuesday. How about you
guys get a deal on by tuesday. How about stop
putting parameters on this situation that you've already let get
out of control to begin with, and just.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Move on and go your step away.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
We know in negotiations, though, deadlines do deals, and whether
they're fictitious or if they're real, usually.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
There's a sense of urgency.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Now, I don't understand necessarily how you can even put
on a deadline, like what are you gonna do if
you don't get the offer you want, Right, if you
wait into the season and maybe there's a team that
has an injury at running back and now they might
be a little more willing to give up a higher
draft pick, why would you want to hold on to
him until then? Like, if he's not if you're okay
with him going and playing for another team, what's wrong
with stashing him on your roster and waiting until you
(06:36):
get a better offer?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Yeah, I don't get it.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
I mean, he's not gonna count that much against the cap,
and you know, so if he's not that expensive, what's
the point then of wanting to trade and move on
from him?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Keep him?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
See if he doesn't realize he might want to play
this year, otherwise he's gonna be subject to fines and all.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Like, I do wonder about this because.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
People bring up the workload because he did run the
ball a lot in college. I think, what do you
have like six hundred care ninety hundred carries something crazy
like that at Wisconsin. We'll call it fifteen hundred carries?
All right, let's just let's let's split the difference here.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Let me find the actually twenty three hundred carries for
Jonathan Taylor in college we're gonna go with that.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
We'll go with it. Who's going to find it.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Faster me or all right?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
So so this is a battle of the Wi fi
is here between Brady and Lee.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Who's got what?
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Brady's running some issues and down the stretch they come.
Lead the Lab looks like he's got himself a strong
link and it's secure.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
See, we got total carries.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
And we've still got issues here on back and now
Brady Quinnick, Brady quinn it is twenty six.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
And it's a photo finish. But Lead the Lab looks
like he gets it.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Yeah, so nine hundred and again twenty three hundred nine
twenty six, same thing. Yeah, we were like, again we're
splitting hairs. We just round right up to twenty three
hundred carries for Jonathan Taylor. But people bring up the
workload to me. You're gonna get him for what four
point three million this year?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Yeah, you'd have the ability to use the franchise stag
after that, which is a lot to two years control
with Jonathan Taylor, right, and two years control that if
you pay him the four to three and the ten
million next year, seven million a year for Jonathan Taylor
for a couple of years.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Why not.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
No, it would be a be a good price. The
problem is Jim or say, already burn that boat, and
so it's gone. Now they've got to figure out a
way of moving forward. I just I wonder how many
more running backs, though, are going to try to press
the issue of getting a longer term deal done off
their rookie deal and then find themselves in this position.
The reality is the running back market, as we've seen
(08:40):
this offseason, clearly is in trouble. I mean it's i
would say, offensively speaking, probably the least compensated of any Yes,
and now you find yourself in a position where most
rookie running backs are coming to the league. Hell, some
of them may be making just as good as money
if they stay in college football A nil.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
What do you pretty get at.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
I'm just saying, it's like some of these got are
getting paid well enough where they may come into the
league with even more wear and tear. Jonathan Taylor only
played three years. He could have played a fourth year.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
And I mean the good news is if you're running back,
you can always go back like years later.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
And like sue some people, Oh yeah, I'm just saying
I'm gonna I'm gonna leave that one.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Okay, I'm gonna get yeah next hour, you know, the
final hour of the program.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Okay, we'll get to that next hour.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
But yeah, it's Look, it's a tough spot. It's a
tough spot for Jonathan Taylor. I just I can't help
but think way to screw this whole thing up because
and we've talked about this before.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
You've dealt with Jonathan Taylor.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Anybody that's ever dealt with the guys stand up dude,
can't say enough good things about him. The fact that
he wants out, I think is telling to what to
what happened between him and jim irsay. And it felt
like a pretty critical year for not only Jonathan Taylor,
but the organization. You think you finally found stability at quarterback,
You've got your quarterback of the future. To me, you'd
(09:59):
once you're running to be there, to be a part
of it like that seems like it would be, you know,
of good, great interest of the Indianapolis Colts to try
and make things that much easier on the life of
Anthony Richardson. And instead the owner, Jimmy big Mouth, shoots
his mouth off, and now we're we're staring at some
Tuesday fake deadline because the organization butchered this from the start.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
It just what are we doing? Dude?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Like Chris Ballard has got to be looking around going
I gotta get out of here.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Seriously, I gotta get out of here. I can't deal
with this.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
It's it's just an impulsive owner who makes the lives
of everybody around him that much more difficult.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
All right, here, here are the odds for the top
six teams right potentially looking to get Jonathan Taylor services.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I guess, can I guess? See?
Speaker 3 (10:47):
I mean you just looked.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I didn't. I didn't see it. I promise you.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Let's see it. All right?
Speaker 2 (10:52):
So the top six teams the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Okay, it's number one. You what the odds for, by
the way, plus one twenty wow?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Really?
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Yeah? The problem is, like at least from reports, is
they'd have to give up some players in order to
get them.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Well, and also, Miami's got a type. You know, certain
people have a type. And when you get to know somebody,
you know, oh that's somebody's Type's got a type?
Speaker 2 (11:15):
He does?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Yeah, so I saw a least type this morning at
the gym by the way.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Yeah least team. Yeah, yeah, we call Lee's team.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
But everybody's got something a flavor and aisle they shop in.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Is Jonathan Taylor Miami's type?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Is he fast enough?
Speaker 3 (11:28):
I mean I would I don't know if he's as
fast as the guys they've got, because Coster, Jeff Wilson.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
And debn a chain runs like a two forty. Yeah,
Devon a change him too. You should see how fast
Debit is. But uh, like just the so yeah, I
wonder if that's his type. But Miami's on the list,
all right. Let me throw out another team, Buffalo. Buffalo
is also on the list. That plus four fifty.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Okay, so the Bills, which makes some sense. They could
use a little help. They've always been in the market
for running back seemingly.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Well, it seems like they're always in the market for
wanting to have a running game, but then they just
don't have a running game.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Yeah, but when you got Josh Allen, I mean, mister indestructible.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
All right, so the Bills, I will go the Bears.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Bears are not on this list. They could be, but
they're not on this list. The one I'm seeing right here, Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
I will say Lee's combating that because he's got a
different list.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I am.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
I am combating that.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
This is from August twenty second, So who's your source,
the DraftKings DraftKings. Okay, well you can use yours then,
because I'm not using.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
This is from August twenty second.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Yeah, mine's from August twenty second as well.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Okay, yeah, I'm seeing Bears plus four hundred.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Carolina Panthers not on this list. Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Panthers are not on this list.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Green Bay Packers not on this list.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Tampa Bay, Minnesota, New Orleans Cowboys, Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
They just got rid of, well.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
They just got rid of Dalvin Cooks, so maybe they
could use Jonathan Taylor.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
It's man and Josh Jacobs. I guess, I guess he
hasn't signed his franchise tag. So there was a report
he was going to be with the Raiders week one
that's apparently still up in the air.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
I just I don't know what options these guys.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
The problem though, is was like, why would the Raiders
though be interested only because you run the same issue
with Jonathan Taylor Unless this has been such a bad
experience he just wants to get to another team and
then they say, all right, I'll play it out and
I'll revisit this after the year.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I think that's what I just think he wants out.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Probably at this point, but either way, it's gonna put
him in a really tough spot though after the season.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
And so Indianapolis wants a first round pick or picks.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Equivalent to a first round pick right Jonathan Taylor.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Which, for those who don't know, there's a draft chart,
there's a value equitted East draft pick, so roughly they
would need the amount of picks that would compensate to
someone in the first round.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
It's just funny how Ersay has been, you know, trying
to tell everybody the true value of a running back,
and now he's demanding the value in return for a
running back.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Well, he values a dead whale at twenty million dollars
A great point, Hey, great point, No, twenty five million,
twenty million, I though it was twenty ye.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Yeah, yeah, he was gonna pay twenty million dollars for
a dead whale.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Was was wasn't it wasn't dead at the time he
was going to pay for it.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Okay, so now you can get it for half off
ten million dollars and throw that thing on your wall.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Can we be honest though?
Speaker 2 (14:08):
How do you think this came about? It was an
old whale.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Was he like drunk and watching Free Willie? And it
was like, you know what, there's that?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah, why not? It's a great idea. But I'm telling you, like,
could he buy the whale? Stuff it? Throw it on
the wall? How do you even ship away?
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Are they freighting it?
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Like through the air well? Why do you ship it?
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Now?
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Like two three zip blocks?
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Come on, you get yourself a decent blender, one of
those industrial bad boys they got here in Dublin.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
You're talking about, Oh what do you want? This is
what happens when you do a show in the middle
of the afternoon.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
You are going to, at some point in time get
in trouble with Peta and probably whatever horse jockey association.
Those are your two.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Big for Peta.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Anybody listening at Pita, have yourself a ribi and relax.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Okay, it's not that bad out there.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
And well, what we're gonna say the horse jockeys. We
got a couple of tracks around.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Here, same thing I say, But grow up? What do
you mean so bad?
Speaker 3 (15:07):
It's such a bad joke.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Just grow up.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
That's how I know you've become a dad. You're not
telling dad jokes on the air.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Well, no, I would, if, if truthful, would have told
it in Spanish, if if my son was here.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
So, okay, he speaks, he's bilingual.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Yeah, I'm not so I don't even know what he's saying.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Sometimes it's the truth. I just hope he doesn't know
what you're saying.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah, Well, listen, you know it's these little things you
discover when you become a parent speaker.

up in front of us here, all right, beautiful, So
you can't come to the Emerald Oyle, you can't come
to Dublin without having a Guinness. But what we're gonna
do is we're gonna do something that they call splitting,
did you okay, So we've three points a Guinness in
we're gonna see who's going to get the closest.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
We're gonna get a little bit of competitive here.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
And what it is is in once up you're looking
to take it all the way down and split that
G right there, So to the line on the G
and let's see who gets the closest. Alright, alright, all right, right,
what you got Jonas you go first, Let's see how
close you get?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Go?
Speaker 4 (19:22):
He's smelling the guinness.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Up yours and down mind stepping up as a chance.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
He oh, he overshot the mark.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
He overshow so you don't want to overshoot it?
Speaker 6 (19:39):
No, you're you're looking to split the G straight through.
So where that G is there?
Speaker 3 (19:44):
But I thought you were trying to go for the
whole thing.
Speaker 6 (19:45):
I want you to have the black line right there,
So show us what you got.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
You know, pro sports athletes and all that.
Speaker 3 (19:51):

Yeah, it's got big feet too. You missed that one earlier.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
That's close. They vote overshot the mark, right.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
So you want so the phone can't be there?
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Yeah, so it's split it. I could really embarrass myself here,
couldn't I?
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Oh come on, no, you'd be great.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
You overshot everyone.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Overshot the mark.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Hey what would say?
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Where they're overshooting the mark?
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (20:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (20:21):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
All that means is not there? Name's Covern tomorrow. Yeh,
that's all that means first Saturday.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Maybe take it over, take the over fifty and a half.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
That's true. Yeah, there is that all right. So a
day in the life of a Lord Mayor of Dublin.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Kiss what yeh?
Speaker 2 (20:38):
You explained what a lord mayor is.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
So you're a mayor, the mayor of Dublin.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Okay, But obviously we have come from this colonial past
with the British and hundreds of years ago the king
award at certain cities and extra designate title, so they
put lord in front of mayor. So Dublin got that
back in the sixteen hundreds, and that's how it goes.
So I'm the mayor of Dublin. I get to live
in the mansion house, you know, I get to wear
the bling, that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Every day you're wearing the bling.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Every day.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
You're nothing without the chain wherever you go, Like, the
chain goes back to sixteen ninety eight.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
So there's a whole big story behind this.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
That can't be the original one, though it.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Is for this purpose of this, no, okay, I'll get in.
Speaker 6 (21:16):
Okay, story wise, back in sixteen ninety eight, some of
your your well, essentially some of the guys from from
the other side of things would have heard of the
Battle of the Boy. There's a big thing between William
of Orange and James the second William of Orange one
James the second crowd went off to France. They did
a burner. The Lord Mayor took the chain. They melted
it down, never seen again. The new guy comes in
and says, hey, I need a chain. Petitions the King
(21:37):
of England. He wards a thousand pounds in sixteen ninety
eight to the City of Dublin for a chain. Hence
the Lord Mayor Dublin. Where's William of Orange around every day?
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Bro?
Speaker 3 (21:45):
That should be Notre Dame's new turnover chain.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
That all the way over the Yeah, come on, and
it's heavy.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
How would you describe that the solid gold man? Of course,
it's solid. It's solid gold.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Yeah, that's sweets that needs to be in the new
turnover chain for.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
That's the Lord mayor stuff. What do we do every day?
Everything from well, my main important role is I chair
the council. So the one point two billion eure a budget,
we push all that your Dublin City council. But also
I'm for a citizen of Dublin, which is the coolest
thing that you've ever heard in your life. In terms
of I go out on the community group, so I
represented us a big important state occasions. We work with
different groups trying to improve the city, funeral, you name it.
(22:29):
My day is as broad as you can possibly get,
Like from meeting kind of working on hard on policy
to going out and meeting great groups that are doing
great stuff in the community, to coming on cool podcasts
and drinking guinness and trying to Yeah, and even like
this week, like it's great to have so many people
in town, Like we've forty odd toelsand Americans in town.
It's the biggest airlift of Americans coming across the Atlantic
(22:50):
since World War Two in one go. Wow, So like
really really good about huh Hey, So you know that's
a serious question.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
Do I have to give you a serious answer?
Speaker 3 (22:59):
No, you do not. Is there even a law for
public intoxication here?
Speaker 7 (23:04):
Damn?
Speaker 4 (23:04):
I think you're all right.
Speaker 6 (23:05):
So long as you don't go size of you as
a big quarterback going out starting fights, we maybe wouldn't
want that.
Speaker 4 (23:10):
You can drink as many points as you want.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Zero, drink as much as you want here and that's it.
Speaker 6 (23:16):
I'm brady if you get into trouble, just said Lord
Mayor said, it's okay.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
We passed by a guy last night on our half
mile walk. We passed by a guy last night that
was draining the train on a wall just out and
he looked at us like.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
We were wrong for doing it.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Where you did beside him?
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Question?
Speaker 6 (23:36):
Yeah, I just you know, I just he was going
and just he had a beer and he was just
he got bought short.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Just you know, he was having a having a cocktail
and just enjoying him.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
Talk to me about like how this all comes together.
There's obviously a lot of parties involved, but as far
as just the city of Dublin even entertaining something like
this now not just this year, but next year too.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
So this is a big thing for us to have
Game Day zero here every year and it's so so cool.
The idea originated with a lot of guys after kind
of maybe fifteen to twenty years ago.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
They had this idea of bringing.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
College football and it was true links to a Notre Dame,
the Knockton family and things like that, and they said,
how could we get college football? So they trailed it
off a couple of times and it really really worked.
And then obviously a couple of years ago we signed
up to a multi annual Game Day series where Game
Day zero is going to be in Dublin every year,
which is so so cool. And then that little thing
called COVID got in the way. So this Notre Dame
Navy game, this was to be in twenty twenty. So
(24:30):
from a city perspective, this is where the game is
worth about one hundred and sixty odds one hundred and
sixty eight million euros to the city in terms of
people coming in, staying here, spending money and joined themselves
going to game having fun. On average, they're spending a
few days in Dublin and then they're going to look
around Ireland and seeing what else Ireland has to offer.
So from a tourism perspective, I know the state are behind,
the Dublin city councils behind it. Obviously the guys from
(24:51):
the iarling Is Football Classic that put the whole thing
together and they run it and they do such a
really good job around this. Yeah, so he's too busy
talking on his phone there as we give him a
shout out, But no, those guys.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
They're working really really hard.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
So as a big public event, as a big sporting
event coming to Dublin, were really really delighted to have it.
So last year we Northwestern Nebraska, they were kicking things off.
I think having Irish in town and have a Navy
in town is gonna blow this to a whole other level.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
I think people can feel the excitement.
Speaker 6 (25:20):
I was out for a walk early this morning and
people are just walking around the Navy tops and Notre
day in tops and just soaking in the city. And
that's really cool to see, you know. And there's such
a great atmosphere. There's lots for.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
People to come see do in Dublin. And yeah, people
are gonna have fun. They're gonna have a really, really,
really good weekend.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
He is the Dublin He's Dublin's first citizen, the Lord
Mayor of Dublins.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
A lot of pressure here in the first citizen. Huh say,
a lot of pressure?
Speaker 4 (25:45):
No pressure? How could you have pressure?
Speaker 6 (25:47):
It's the biggest, Like, it's the biggest honor in privilege
I'll ever get in my life.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
What is some because you're born and raised in Dublin,
I am okay, what is something about Dublin that maybe
people here from America, people listening back home in the
States don't know other than you know, we'd like to
have some pints.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
And it's a great city and.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
People are welcoming and warm, and there's great music and
food and all that. But what is something about Dublin
that you tell people doesn't get the credit or notoriety
that it maybe should.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
I think it's people like and look, it's tied into
everything in terms of what we do. But when you
come here, you're going to meet a really outgoing people.
You're gonna meet a welcoming people. Like we talk about
the Cave Melafaulge and sometimes that gets a little bit tried.
But as you come to Dublin, like if you're stopping,
you need to go somewhere, people are really friendly, they're outgoing,
they want to have fun, they're engaged, and they're not reserved.
(26:38):
So I'm sure as you guys are traversing the city
in the evenings and you're looking to do good things, you're.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
Going to come across people that want to engage.
Speaker 6 (26:45):
What you don't want to talk to you, They want
to hear from you, and they want to make sure
that you have a good time too, So if you
want to pick their brains in terms of what to do.
So Dublin has really really good people and so does Ireland.
And that's the overarching thing that ties the whole thing together.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
What's like one thing we need to see do experience
well before we leave.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I know that's a lot of pressure on you to
pick for that, but come on, Lord Mayor, come on,
Lord Mayor.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
If you were here two weeks ago, I would have
said you need to catch a game, a gaa game.
So with Gaelic football and Hurland here, I don't know
if you've ever seen it, is that next week the championship,
so there's club championships starting. But a couple of weeks
ago Dublin won the All Ireland Championship. Okay, so Dublin
are All Ireland champions. They're really really good at what
they do in the football. But the same we always
say catch a hurling game because it's something completely different
(27:29):
to explain to you. It's like a mixture between polo
and hockey whatever. It's the fastest game in the world.
If you haven't seen it, whoever's listening to the podcast,
whoever's here, if you haven't seen it, just check.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Out hurling on YouTube.
Speaker 6 (27:40):
You'll see it's a very very Irish sports. We only
have it here now it's starting to spread the small
pockets around the place to do it. But every year
we have a big championship. And the difference being these guys.
When you see them, you'll say they're all professional athletes,
but they're not. They do it for free. They volunteer.
They do it as part of looking after their parish
and their county. So there's no big transfers to, no
big money. And most Sundays then in crow Park in
(28:03):
during the summer you've eighty two and a half thousand
people coming to watch this.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
That's incredibly huge.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
And as I said, it's not pay that they volunteer
to do these sports. It's about pride man pride and
representing where you're from. That's your own town and your
own city.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Jonas needs to get into that for thousand oaks.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Yeah, oh yeah, man, come on, that's next. What else
you know that? That's how we operate. But listen, we
can't thank you enough. Split the G, Split the G.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
Everybody shot it?
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Hey, you know, although I will say if you undershoot it.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Like most things.
Speaker 4 (28:35):
It's better overshooting better that guy. It's something that would say.
So maybe you're live to do this again sometime.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
You're live from Buskers Bar.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
He is the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Dublin's first citizen.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
Dahi, that's it.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
You got it.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
I'll give you five man, you gotta die. Don't so much.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Thanks.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
There looking this, it's aweso amazing.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Hold it and I soon I can even.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Try that on.
Speaker 4 (29:06):
Yeah, we don't really have to get it.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
Why I'd break my back as.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
You do a burner with it. It's not about trying
it on, it's if you do a runner mound unscrewed.
Someone's going, why did you give someone the chain to
run away? But Tony Goings in sixteen ninety eight like
that's invalitable.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Listen, we can thank you enough for being a part
of this, and it's been fantastic thus far.

The great air Lingus enough. By the way, it's an
Irish airline. It flies from sixteen North American destinations to
Ireland and beyond. Dublin's a hub for connecting to over
seventy destinations across Europe.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
You get a warm Irish welcome when you're on board.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
It's a light you can lay down flat and actually
get some sleep.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
The fact great TV show and those lay flat down
beds are a lifesaver.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
I slept five hours. Yeah, that's like two nights during
the week back home before.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
That's about right for you.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
So I got some of the best sleep I've ever
gotten in a long time on air Lingus. And you
can find the best fares on air lingus dot com.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
Can't recommend it enough. A lot of airlines out there have.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Given subpar treatment to their you know, customers. Airlinks completely
the opposite. Yeah, so so cannot thank them enough as
well for you know, letting us be a part of
this fun little extravaganza here in Dublin, Ireland. People are
getting fired up. I mean there's glasses breaking around.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
Yeah, people are a little toasty. Oh yeah, that's going

Speaker 2 (32:33):
All right, So coming up top of next.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Hour, we'll call it a little over ten minutes from now,
we're gonna talk with the person who put all of
this together, who's responsible for all of this great content
and just the great times that have been had by all.
That'll be coming up here again a little over ten
minutes from now. So the Kansas City Chiefs have got
themselves a little bit of a problem, Brady Quinn. Yeah,
(32:55):
we got Chiefs fans out there. We got Kansas City
Chiefs fans. Okay, Ay, tough life, uh boy, boy must
be rough.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Being a Chiefs fan.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
You imagine that, I mean like making it to the
AFC Championship Game every year, greatest quarterback talent of all time?
Probably true right now, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
And yet there's people who and not speaking personally, but
there's people that grew up Chicago Bears fans.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Can we just get some crumbs just to anything?
Speaker 1 (33:24):
And you're a cheat like the damn Chiefs roll out
Patrick Mahomes and and people forget Alex Smith was fantastic.
Yeah with Kansas City and it's like, oh, we'll just
throw We'll throw up Patrick Mahomes in there. Nobody had
no I actually.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Find would say that Kansas City Chiefs have forced a
lot of teams to make the mistake of they take
a guy who's good, and they always are trying to
find somebody who's Patrick Mahomes. That can be that much
better because the Alex Smith Patrick Mahomes scenario. Every team
it's a copycat league. Every team's trying to do that
now and they always end up making the wrong decision.
(33:58):
It's like, you're not gonna find another Patrick. It's just
it's not gonna happen. You're not You're not gonna find
number Tom Brady's not under Patrick Mahomes. That's what teams do, though.
They try to mimic what the Chiefs have right now,
and you're just not gonna find it.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
Yeah, it's it's ridiculous what the Chiefs have, but they
don't have themselves.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
A little bit of a problem.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Chris Jones the greatest forty yard dash in the history
of the NFL. Comb If you have not seen Chris
Jones is forty yard dash from the combine.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
Cannot recommend it enough. Cannot recommend it enough.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Just imagine taking a bag into the produce aisle, a
paper bag and the uh you left the bottom on
like the kitchen countertop and didn't realize it was wet,
and then you go in there to grab a bunch
of candalopes and next thing you know, they're just spilling
all out over the floor in the produce aisle. Like
that's what it looked like, Chris Jones running his forty
(34:49):
yard dash. Listen, I mean, good for him, He's carrying
a lot of laundry there.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Yeah, so I was gonna say it. It was almost
like a French baghette like broke through the bottom of
the bag.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Yeah, listen, but you know that, not that I would know,
But Chris Jones had himself a little bit of an issue.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
Well he's got this other issue.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
He's now annually eighth amongst defensive tackles in the NFL.
When it comes to contracts, sure, well he should be
near the top. He should be, and he's got a
four year deal. What was eighty million dollars that he signed.
He's going into the final year of his deal. He
was asked about it on social media. When do you
plan it on coming back? He threw out Week eight
(35:26):
for some reason. I don't know that that is that sort.
Do you have to play ten ten games to.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Get in order to get an accredited season? You you've
got to have to report back and.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Play enough games.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
So that's why that week eight is the time.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
What she wants to make it recurring.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
I wonder how it lands with Mahomes though, because look,
if he wanted to, he could really tighten the screws
on the Chiefs and say I want more money, I
want to get paid.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
Can we be real?
Speaker 2 (35:51):
Though?
Speaker 3 (35:52):
We already saw what this team did without Tyreek Hill
last year they won a Super Bowl. Yeah, I don't
know that this place is an advantage if they start
out the first seven games, eight games the season right,
and they're what six and two, seven and one, and
they're on a path have the number one overall seed
again when the AFC West again, Like that doesn't help
(36:14):
create leverage for you, right when a team's winning without you.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
I'm surprised that it's gotten to this point though, I
think Andy read because now Andy Reids his talk on
it is we have not had any communication and eventually
we just gotta we gotta play games. But you like,
they were confident enough that they were talking and we're
gonna get a deal done, and yet here we are,
the season's approaching.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
And they still don't have a deal done.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
What's surprising to me is this is when you have
a quarterback like Patrick Mahomes and he's on a long
term deal, he's your mortgage company. So if you need
to create more cap space, you have to have an
owner that's willing to do this. But as long as
you can give Chris Jones a big load of cash,
meaning a signing bonus, you can structure it in a
way where you can make him happy.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
You can fit it under the cap and.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Then obviously you're gonna be making more, you know, creating
more gearing tease by paying out more cash to Patrick
Mahomes in exchange for his salary to do so. But
that's how you go about restructuring it. Most teams can't
do that, either because they don't have the quarterback to
be able to use as their mortgage company, or because
they're not on the long term deal. Patrick Mahomes is
there to restructure with. He's already like incredibly underpaid for
(37:20):
his talents. So that's what's surprising to me is when
you look at how this is drug on, it's the
fact that in house you've got a solution and for
whatever reason, the can say chiefs aren't going in that direction.
So I don't know if that's like a Hunt family
problem and he doesn't want to do out the cash,
or if it's more like the number is just astronomical
and they don't feel like they can come to an
agree with Chris Jones.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
And I mean as far as next to Aaron Donald,
he's still number one.
Speaker 3 (37:44):
Run He's behind Aaron Donald, but he's right, but he
had a better year than Donald last year.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Donald's yeah, so yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
Mean he was the best defensive tackle when Aaron Donald
was a part of the league.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
I mean, listen, you can't have it all. If you're
the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
OK, maybe they can.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
You can't have it.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
We're not there yet. We've got a couple more weeks
till the actual games are played. We've got time.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
I don't know if you knew this or not, but
deadlines do deals.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
I've heard that before, have you.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 3 (38:09):
I tell you.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
It's like our deadline at the bottom of the hour.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
Well yeah, I mean it is deadline for hour two here,

Speaker 1 (00:35):

Speaker 1 (01:05):
As we mentioned, Notre Dame is well represented here in
the great city of Dumblin, Ireland.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
You're gonna kick some ass on Saturdays. Oh yeah, yeah, Now, look,
it'll be respectful ass kicking because these young men from navy,
all right, they are will one day be protecting our
great country, the United States. I'd not being said, though,
that is not mean that we shouldn't absolutely go out
there and kick their ass.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
All right, that's a great Hey, you know what, there's
some talk there. I'm already quit. Everybody.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
You want to respectfully, but you want to make sure
you give them a beat down.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Hey, it's like I always say, play like a champion today,
you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Right, that's what you're doing is how you do right? Which,
by the way, how did I tear my rotator cuff
my sleep?
Speaker 3 (01:52):
I don't talk to me about that.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
What sort of dream did I have where I tore
my rotator cuff? What was it doing?
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Probably one where we're lee met a waitress who had
a draft tattoo on her forearm.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I think something like that.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
She had yet Appay, she was very nice.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Fatbe Why you took a picture of that? I still
try to figure out. It's like, like you sent me
six photos from like today, last we sight seeing, I
get a picture of a waitress with a draft tattoo.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
There was a reason at the time, but I do
not remember what.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
She was very nice, she was awesome, she had she
had a draft tattoo on her arm, and hey, I
worked it toys for us for a time.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
You know, so there's that I've fed a draft before,
did you really? Yeah, it was weird.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
They have like gray tongues. Yeah, yeah, not what I thought. Yeah,
it is a little weird. Yeah yeah, but you know what,
who cares?
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Here's what I care about, the fact that we couldn't
be here without the tremendous support from our sponsors. Panini
Trading Cards, the official trading cards of Fox Sports Radios.
Air Lingus series coverage live here from Dublin. Obviously air Lingus,
as we mentioned, they flew us to Dublin incredible combinations.
Horizon Therapeutics, where science and compassion work together to transform lives,
(03:04):
will be attending the Horizon Therapeutics tailgate party before the
game on Saturday. And then of course Budweiser, who made
our broadcast today possible here live from Buskers Bar in Dublin.
Fantastic accommodations all the way around, everybody who made this possible.
We can't tell you how much we appreciate it. Now
that being said, we transition over to the NFL, where
(03:26):
we have got ourselves a deadline, the Indianapolis Colts, whose
owner is still mourning the death of a whale.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Not making that up, just.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Saying, can you set the scene here a deadline for what?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Well?
Speaker 3 (03:44):
I just wanted to point that out. I mean, you
know the way, I'll understand. But he's setting a deadline
for Jonson Taylor.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I got news for you. I lost all sympathy the
second I saw Free Willie. The movie stunk and all
that did, all that did was just steer me in
the opposite direction here.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
But no, I think, okay, here's the scenario. Okay, the
whale dying. Actually, I think has now made Jimmersy realize
he can't just do things on his own time frame.
You're right, but he needs to set a death These
things tend to die.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Then that's a great point, because Indianapolis and jim irsay
they've given Jonathan Taylor a Tuesday deadline to find a
trade partner. Now, reportedly six teams have reached out, two
have engaged with offers, one of them being the Dolphins,
which is appropriate considering this guy still mourning the death
of a whale that Dolphins ship.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Him off Yeah, yeah, to the destination you're supposed to
pick up the whale exactly.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
So, so that does make all the sense in the world.
But uh, just the fact that they're giving him this
deadline is hilarious to me. It's like, why would you
do that?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Look, there's a lot of things that jim Irsay does
that we really can't make much sense of. I mean,
first off, I'm shocked he's not here in Ireland with
the Tree Leaders.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
See, yeah, he might be. This seems like his type
of place.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
It's issues well yeah, I mean, is there a trash
bag back there?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Anybody got any where's the uh where's that at?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
But just the idea that you think, like they screwed
this whole thing up from the get go. As we've
talked about, we've chronicled that on this show, they screwed
it up.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Like when you're running back once more money.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
He wants a better contract, and instead of talking it out,
you have some meeting with him and then sit down
on the back of a golf cart in Indianapolis and go, well,
I mean listen, uh, I could die tomorrow. Jonathan Taylor
be out of the league. Nobody cares. Boy, that's comforting,
man like boy. That boy, Boy, that makes me feel
great about things. So he screwed that up from the
get go. Jonathan Taylor doesn't want to play there anymore.
(05:48):
He took it personal for a good reason, and so
that now they're going to drop this. Well, you've got
to do a Tuesday deadline. You want to get a
deal done, get one done by tuesday. How about you
guys get a deal on by tuesday. How about stop
putting parameters on this situation that you've already let get
out of control to begin with, and just.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Move on and go your step away.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
We know in negotiations, though, deadlines do deals, and whether
they're fictitious or if they're real, usually.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
There's a sense of urgency.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Now, I don't understand necessarily how you can even put
on a deadline, like what are you gonna do if
you don't get the offer you want, Right, if you
wait into the season and maybe there's a team that
has an injury at running back and now they might
be a little more willing to give up a higher
draft pick, why would you want to hold on to
him until then? Like, if he's not if you're okay
with him going and playing for another team, what's wrong
with stashing him on your roster and waiting until you
(06:36):
get a better offer?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Yeah, I don't get it.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
I mean, he's not gonna count that much against the cap,
and you know, so if he's not that expensive, what's
the point then of wanting to trade and move on
from him?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Keep him?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
See if he doesn't realize he might want to play
this year, otherwise he's gonna be subject to fines and all.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Like, I do wonder about this because.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
People bring up the workload because he did run the
ball a lot in college. I think, what do you
have like six hundred care ninety hundred carries something crazy
like that at Wisconsin. We'll call it fifteen hundred carries?
All right, let's just let's let's split the difference here.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Let me find the actually twenty three hundred carries for
Jonathan Taylor in college we're gonna go with that.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
We'll go with it. Who's going to find it.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Faster me or all right?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
So so this is a battle of the Wi fi
is here between Brady and Lee.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Who's got what?
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Brady's running some issues and down the stretch they come.
Lead the Lab looks like he's got himself a strong
link and it's secure.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
See, we got total carries.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
And we've still got issues here on back and now
Brady Quinnick, Brady quinn it is twenty six.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
And it's a photo finish. But Lead the Lab looks
like he gets it.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Yeah, so nine hundred and again twenty three hundred nine
twenty six, same thing. Yeah, we were like, again we're
splitting hairs. We just round right up to twenty three
hundred carries for Jonathan Taylor. But people bring up the
workload to me. You're gonna get him for what four
point three million this year?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Yeah, you'd have the ability to use the franchise stag
after that, which is a lot to two years control
with Jonathan Taylor, right, and two years control that if
you pay him the four to three and the ten
million next year, seven million a year for Jonathan Taylor
for a couple of years.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Why not.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
No, it would be a be a good price. The
problem is Jim or say, already burn that boat, and
so it's gone. Now they've got to figure out a
way of moving forward. I just I wonder how many
more running backs, though, are going to try to press
the issue of getting a longer term deal done off
their rookie deal and then find themselves in this position.
The reality is the running back market, as we've seen
(08:40):
this offseason, clearly is in trouble. I mean it's i
would say, offensively speaking, probably the least compensated of any Yes,
and now you find yourself in a position where most
rookie running backs are coming to the league. Hell, some
of them may be making just as good as money
if they stay in college football A nil.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
What do you pretty get at.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
I'm just saying, it's like some of these got are
getting paid well enough where they may come into the
league with even more wear and tear. Jonathan Taylor only
played three years. He could have played a fourth year.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
And I mean the good news is if you're running back,
you can always go back like years later.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
And like sue some people, Oh yeah, I'm just saying
I'm gonna I'm gonna leave that one.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Okay, I'm gonna get yeah next hour, you know, the
final hour of the program.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Okay, we'll get to that next hour.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
But yeah, it's Look, it's a tough spot. It's a
tough spot for Jonathan Taylor. I just I can't help
but think way to screw this whole thing up because
and we've talked about this before.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
You've dealt with Jonathan Taylor.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Anybody that's ever dealt with the guys stand up dude,
can't say enough good things about him. The fact that
he wants out, I think is telling to what to
what happened between him and jim irsay. And it felt
like a pretty critical year for not only Jonathan Taylor,
but the organization. You think you finally found stability at quarterback,
You've got your quarterback of the future. To me, you'd
(09:59):
once you're running to be there, to be a part
of it like that seems like it would be, you know,
of good, great interest of the Indianapolis Colts to try
and make things that much easier on the life of
Anthony Richardson. And instead the owner, Jimmy big Mouth, shoots
his mouth off, and now we're we're staring at some
Tuesday fake deadline because the organization butchered this from the start.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
It just what are we doing? Dude?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Like Chris Ballard has got to be looking around going
I gotta get out of here.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Seriously, I gotta get out of here. I can't deal
with this.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
It's it's just an impulsive owner who makes the lives
of everybody around him that much more difficult.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
All right, here, here are the odds for the top
six teams right potentially looking to get Jonathan Taylor services.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I guess, can I guess? See?
Speaker 3 (10:47):
I mean you just looked.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I didn't. I didn't see it. I promise you.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Let's see it. All right?
Speaker 2 (10:52):
So the top six teams the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Okay, it's number one. You what the odds for, by
the way, plus one twenty wow?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Really?
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Yeah? The problem is, like at least from reports, is
they'd have to give up some players in order to
get them.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Well, and also, Miami's got a type. You know, certain
people have a type. And when you get to know somebody,
you know, oh that's somebody's Type's got a type?
Speaker 2 (11:15):
He does?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Yeah, so I saw a least type this morning at
the gym by the way.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Yeah least team. Yeah, yeah, we call Lee's team.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
But everybody's got something a flavor and aisle they shop in.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Is Jonathan Taylor Miami's type?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Is he fast enough?
Speaker 3 (11:28):
I mean I would I don't know if he's as
fast as the guys they've got, because Coster, Jeff Wilson.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
And debn a chain runs like a two forty. Yeah,
Devon a change him too. You should see how fast
Debit is. But uh, like just the so yeah, I
wonder if that's his type. But Miami's on the list,
all right. Let me throw out another team, Buffalo. Buffalo
is also on the list. That plus four fifty.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Okay, so the Bills, which makes some sense. They could
use a little help. They've always been in the market
for running back seemingly.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Well, it seems like they're always in the market for
wanting to have a running game, but then they just
don't have a running game.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Yeah, but when you got Josh Allen, I mean, mister indestructible.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
All right, so the Bills, I will go the Bears.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Bears are not on this list. They could be, but
they're not on this list. The one I'm seeing right here, Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
I will say Lee's combating that because he's got a
different list.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I am.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
I am combating that.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
This is from August twenty second, So who's your source,
the DraftKings DraftKings. Okay, well you can use yours then,
because I'm not using.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
This is from August twenty second.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Yeah, mine's from August twenty second as well.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Okay, yeah, I'm seeing Bears plus four hundred.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Carolina Panthers not on this list. Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Panthers are not on this list.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Green Bay Packers not on this list.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Tampa Bay, Minnesota, New Orleans Cowboys, Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
They just got rid of, well.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
They just got rid of Dalvin Cooks, so maybe they
could use Jonathan Taylor.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
It's man and Josh Jacobs. I guess, I guess he
hasn't signed his franchise tag. So there was a report
he was going to be with the Raiders week one
that's apparently still up in the air.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
I just I don't know what options these guys.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
The problem though, is was like, why would the Raiders
though be interested only because you run the same issue
with Jonathan Taylor Unless this has been such a bad
experience he just wants to get to another team and
then they say, all right, I'll play it out and
I'll revisit this after the year.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I think that's what I just think he wants out.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Probably at this point, but either way, it's gonna put
him in a really tough spot though after the season.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
And so Indianapolis wants a first round pick or picks.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Equivalent to a first round pick right Jonathan Taylor.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Which, for those who don't know, there's a draft chart,
there's a value equitted East draft pick, so roughly they
would need the amount of picks that would compensate to
someone in the first round.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
It's just funny how Ersay has been, you know, trying
to tell everybody the true value of a running back,
and now he's demanding the value in return for a
running back.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Well, he values a dead whale at twenty million dollars
A great point, Hey, great point, No, twenty five million,
twenty million, I though it was twenty ye.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Yeah, yeah, he was gonna pay twenty million dollars for
a dead whale.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Was was wasn't it wasn't dead at the time he
was going to pay for it.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Okay, so now you can get it for half off
ten million dollars and throw that thing on your wall.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Can we be honest though?
Speaker 2 (14:08):
How do you think this came about? It was an
old whale.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Was he like drunk and watching Free Willie? And it
was like, you know what, there's that?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah, why not? It's a great idea. But I'm telling you, like,
could he buy the whale? Stuff it? Throw it on
the wall? How do you even ship away?
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Are they freighting it?
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Like through the air well? Why do you ship it?
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Now?
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Like two three zip blocks?
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Come on, you get yourself a decent blender, one of
those industrial bad boys they got here in Dublin.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
You're talking about, Oh what do you want? This is
what happens when you do a show in the middle
of the afternoon.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
You are going to, at some point in time get
in trouble with Peta and probably whatever horse jockey association.
Those are your two.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Big for Peta.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Anybody listening at Pita, have yourself a ribi and relax.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Okay, it's not that bad out there.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
And well, what we're gonna say the horse jockeys. We
got a couple of tracks around.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Here, same thing I say, But grow up? What do
you mean so bad?
Speaker 3 (15:07):
It's such a bad joke.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Just grow up.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
That's how I know you've become a dad. You're not
telling dad jokes on the air.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Well, no, I would, if, if truthful, would have told
it in Spanish, if if my son was here.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
So, okay, he speaks, he's bilingual.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Yeah, I'm not so I don't even know what he's saying.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Sometimes it's the truth. I just hope he doesn't know
what you're saying.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah, Well, listen, you know it's these little things you

That it's we've obviously an Irish language here with an
Irish culture. I use I speak Irish. That's my name
in Irish. If you were to come me in English,
it's David Roach. But obviously I changed my name, so
my name is Dohi de Roche. So it's David Roach
in Irish or in Gaelic. So that's how that works.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
How about that now?
Speaker 6 (18:42):
Okay, so you guys, first of all, I'm got to
say you're very, very welcome to Dublin. It's great to
have you guys here. As we can see, there's a
couple of points of Guinness that's going to arrive just
up in front of us here, all right, beautiful, So
you can't come to the Emerald Oyle, you can't come
to Dublin without having a Guinness. But what we're gonna
do is we're gonna do something that they call splitting,
did you okay, So we've three points a Guinness in
we're gonna see who's going to get the closest.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
We're gonna get a little bit of competitive here.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
And what it is is in once up you're looking
to take it all the way down and split that
G right there, So to the line on the G
and let's see who gets the closest. Alright, alright, all right, right,
what you got Jonas you go first, Let's see how
close you get?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Go?
Speaker 4 (19:22):
He's smelling the guinness.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Up yours and down mind stepping up as a chance.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
He oh, he overshot the mark.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
He overshow so you don't want to overshoot it?
Speaker 6 (19:39):
No, you're you're looking to split the G straight through.
So where that G is there?
Speaker 3 (19:44):
But I thought you were trying to go for the
whole thing.
Speaker 6 (19:45):
I want you to have the black line right there,
So show us what you got.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
You know, pro sports athletes and all that.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Surely you know.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Yeah, it's got big feet too. You missed that one earlier.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
That's close. They vote overshot the mark, right.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
So you want so the phone can't be there?
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Yeah, so it's split it. I could really embarrass myself here,
couldn't I?
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Oh come on, no, you'd be great.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
You overshot everyone.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Overshot the mark.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Hey what would say?
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Where they're overshooting the mark?
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (20:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (20:21):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
All that means is not there? Name's Covern tomorrow. Yeh,
that's all that means first Saturday.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Maybe take it over, take the over fifty and a half.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
That's true. Yeah, there is that all right. So a
day in the life of a Lord Mayor of Dublin.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Kiss what yeh?
Speaker 2 (20:38):
You explained what a lord mayor is.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
So you're a mayor, the mayor of Dublin.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Okay, But obviously we have come from this colonial past
with the British and hundreds of years ago the king
award at certain cities and extra designate title, so they
put lord in front of mayor. So Dublin got that
back in the sixteen hundreds, and that's how it goes.
So I'm the mayor of Dublin. I get to live
in the mansion house, you know, I get to wear
the bling, that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Every day you're wearing the bling.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Every day.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
You're nothing without the chain wherever you go, Like, the
chain goes back to sixteen ninety eight.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
So there's a whole big story behind this.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
That can't be the original one, though it.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Is for this purpose of this, no, okay, I'll get in.
Speaker 6 (21:16):
Okay, story wise, back in sixteen ninety eight, some of
your your well, essentially some of the guys from from
the other side of things would have heard of the
Battle of the Boy. There's a big thing between William
of Orange and James the second William of Orange one
James the second crowd went off to France. They did
a burner. The Lord Mayor took the chain. They melted
it down, never seen again. The new guy comes in
and says, hey, I need a chain. Petitions the King
(21:37):
of England. He wards a thousand pounds in sixteen ninety
eight to the City of Dublin for a chain. Hence
the Lord Mayor Dublin. Where's William of Orange around every day?
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Bro?
Speaker 3 (21:45):
That should be Notre Dame's new turnover chain.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
That all the way over the Yeah, come on, and
it's heavy.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
How would you describe that the solid gold man? Of course,
it's solid. It's solid gold.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Yeah, that's sweets that needs to be in the new
turnover chain for.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
That's the Lord mayor stuff. What do we do every day?
Everything from well, my main important role is I chair
the council. So the one point two billion eure a budget,
we push all that your Dublin City council. But also
I'm for a citizen of Dublin, which is the coolest
thing that you've ever heard in your life. In terms
of I go out on the community group, so I
represented us a big important state occasions. We work with
different groups trying to improve the city, funeral, you name it.
(22:29):
My day is as broad as you can possibly get,
Like from meeting kind of working on hard on policy
to going out and meeting great groups that are doing
great stuff in the community, to coming on cool podcasts
and drinking guinness and trying to Yeah, and even like
this week, like it's great to have so many people
in town, Like we've forty odd toelsand Americans in town.
It's the biggest airlift of Americans coming across the Atlantic
(22:50):
since World War Two in one go. Wow, So like
really really good about huh Hey, So you know that's
a serious question.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
Do I have to give you a serious answer?
Speaker 3 (22:59):
No, you do not. Is there even a law for
public intoxication here?
Speaker 7 (23:04):
Damn?
Speaker 4 (23:04):
I think you're all right.
Speaker 6 (23:05):
So long as you don't go size of you as
a big quarterback going out starting fights, we maybe wouldn't
want that.
Speaker 4 (23:10):
You can drink as many points as you want.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Zero, drink as much as you want here and that's it.
Speaker 6 (23:16):
I'm brady if you get into trouble, just said Lord
Mayor said, it's okay.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
We passed by a guy last night on our half
mile walk. We passed by a guy last night that
was draining the train on a wall just out and
he looked at us like.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
We were wrong for doing it.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Where you did beside him?
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Question?
Speaker 6 (23:36):
Yeah, I just you know, I just he was going
and just he had a beer and he was just
he got bought short.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Just you know, he was having a having a cocktail
and just enjoying him.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
Talk to me about like how this all comes together.
There's obviously a lot of parties involved, but as far
as just the city of Dublin even entertaining something like
this now not just this year, but next year too.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
So this is a big thing for us to have
Game Day zero here every year and it's so so cool.
The idea originated with a lot of guys after kind
of maybe fifteen to twenty years ago.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
They had this idea of bringing.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
College football and it was true links to a Notre Dame,
the Knockton family and things like that, and they said,
how could we get college football? So they trailed it
off a couple of times and it really really worked.
And then obviously a couple of years ago we signed
up to a multi annual Game Day series where Game
Day zero is going to be in Dublin every year,
which is so so cool. And then that little thing
called COVID got in the way. So this Notre Dame
Navy game, this was to be in twenty twenty. So
(24:30):
from a city perspective, this is where the game is
worth about one hundred and sixty odds one hundred and
sixty eight million euros to the city in terms of
people coming in, staying here, spending money and joined themselves
going to game having fun. On average, they're spending a
few days in Dublin and then they're going to look
around Ireland and seeing what else Ireland has to offer.
So from a tourism perspective, I know the state are behind,
the Dublin city councils behind it. Obviously the guys from
(24:51):
the iarling Is Football Classic that put the whole thing
together and they run it and they do such a
really good job around this. Yeah, so he's too busy
talking on his phone there as we give him a
shout out, But no, those guys.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
They're working really really hard.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
So as a big public event, as a big sporting
event coming to Dublin, were really really delighted to have it.
So last year we Northwestern Nebraska, they were kicking things off.
I think having Irish in town and have a Navy
in town is gonna blow this to a whole other level.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
I think people can feel the excitement.
Speaker 6 (25:20):
I was out for a walk early this morning and
people are just walking around the Navy tops and Notre
day in tops and just soaking in the city. And
that's really cool to see, you know. And there's such
a great atmosphere. There's lots for.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
People to come see do in Dublin. And yeah, people
are gonna have fun. They're gonna have a really, really,
really good weekend.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
He is the Dublin He's Dublin's first citizen, the Lord
Mayor of Dublins.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
A lot of pressure here in the first citizen. Huh say,
a lot of pressure?
Speaker 4 (25:45):
No pressure? How could you have pressure?
Speaker 6 (25:47):
It's the biggest, Like, it's the biggest honor in privilege
I'll ever get in my life.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
What is some because you're born and raised in Dublin,
I am okay, what is something about Dublin that maybe
people here from America, people listening back home in the
States don't know other than you know, we'd like to
have some pints.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
And it's a great city and.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
People are welcoming and warm, and there's great music and
food and all that. But what is something about Dublin
that you tell people doesn't get the credit or notoriety
that it maybe should.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
I think it's people like and look, it's tied into
everything in terms of what we do. But when you
come here, you're going to meet a really outgoing people.
You're gonna meet a welcoming people. Like we talk about
the Cave Melafaulge and sometimes that gets a little bit tried.
But as you come to Dublin, like if you're stopping,
you need to go somewhere, people are really friendly, they're outgoing,
they want to have fun, they're engaged, and they're not reserved.
(26:38):
So I'm sure as you guys are traversing the city
in the evenings and you're looking to do good things, you're.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
Going to come across people that want to engage.
Speaker 6 (26:45):
What you don't want to talk to you, They want
to hear from you, and they want to make sure
that you have a good time too, So if you
want to pick their brains in terms of what to do.
So Dublin has really really good people and so does Ireland.
And that's the overarching thing that ties the whole thing together.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
What's like one thing we need to see do experience
well before we leave.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I know that's a lot of pressure on you to
pick for that, but come on, Lord Mayor, come on,
Lord Mayor.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
If you were here two weeks ago, I would have
said you need to catch a game, a gaa game.
So with Gaelic football and Hurland here, I don't know
if you've ever seen it, is that next week the championship,
so there's club championships starting. But a couple of weeks
ago Dublin won the All Ireland Championship. Okay, so Dublin
are All Ireland champions. They're really really good at what
they do in the football. But the same we always
say catch a hurling game because it's something completely different
(27:29):
to explain to you. It's like a mixture between polo
and hockey whatever. It's the fastest game in the world.
If you haven't seen it, whoever's listening to the podcast,
whoever's here, if you haven't seen it, just check.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Out hurling on YouTube.
Speaker 6 (27:40):
You'll see it's a very very Irish sports. We only
have it here now it's starting to spread the small
pockets around the place to do it. But every year
we have a big championship. And the difference being these guys.
When you see them, you'll say they're all professional athletes,
but they're not. They do it for free. They volunteer.
They do it as part of looking after their parish
and their county. So there's no big transfers to, no
big money. And most Sundays then in crow Park in
(28:03):
during the summer you've eighty two and a half thousand
people coming to watch this.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
That's incredibly huge.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
And as I said, it's not pay that they volunteer
to do these sports. It's about pride man pride and
representing where you're from. That's your own town and your
own city.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Jonas needs to get into that for thousand oaks.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Yeah, oh yeah, man, come on, that's next. What else
you know that? That's how we operate. But listen, we
can't thank you enough. Split the G, Split the G.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
Everybody shot it?
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Hey, you know, although I will say if you undershoot it.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Like most things.
Speaker 4 (28:35):
It's better overshooting better that guy. It's something that would say.
So maybe you're live to do this again sometime.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
You're live from Buskers Bar.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
He is the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Dublin's first citizen.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
Dahi, that's it.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
You got it.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
I'll give you five man, you gotta die. Don't so much.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Thanks.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
There looking this, it's aweso amazing.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Hold it and I soon I can even.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Try that on.
Speaker 4 (29:06):
Yeah, we don't really have to get it.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
Why I'd break my back as.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
You do a burner with it. It's not about trying
it on, it's if you do a runner mound unscrewed.
Someone's going, why did you give someone the chain to
run away? But Tony Goings in sixteen ninety eight like
that's invalitable.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Listen, we can thank you enough for being a part
of this, and it's been fantastic thus far.

The great air Lingus enough. By the way, it's an
Irish airline. It flies from sixteen North American destinations to
Ireland and beyond. Dublin's a hub for connecting to over
seventy destinations across Europe.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
You get a warm Irish welcome when you're on board.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
It's a light you can lay down flat and actually
get some sleep.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
The fact great TV show and those lay flat down
beds are a lifesaver.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
I slept five hours. Yeah, that's like two nights during
the week back home before.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
That's about right for you.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
So I got some of the best sleep I've ever
gotten in a long time on air Lingus. And you
can find the best fares on air lingus dot com.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
Can't recommend it enough. A lot of airlines out there have.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Given subpar treatment to their you know, customers. Airlinks completely
the opposite. Yeah, so so cannot thank them enough as
well for you know, letting us be a part of
this fun little extravaganza here in Dublin, Ireland. People are
getting fired up. I mean there's glasses breaking around.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
Yeah, people are a little toasty. Oh yeah, that's going

Speaker 2 (32:33):
All right, So coming up top of next.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Hour, we'll call it a little over ten minutes from now,
we're gonna talk with the person who put all of
this together, who's responsible for all of this great content
and just the great times that have been had by all.
That'll be coming up here again a little over ten
minutes from now. So the Kansas City Chiefs have got
themselves a little bit of a problem, Brady Quinn. Yeah,
(32:55):
we got Chiefs fans out there. We got Kansas City
Chiefs fans. Okay, Ay, tough life, uh boy, boy must
be rough.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Being a Chiefs fan.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
You imagine that, I mean like making it to the
AFC Championship Game every year, greatest quarterback talent of all time?
Probably true right now, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
And yet there's people who and not speaking personally, but
there's people that grew up Chicago Bears fans.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Can we just get some crumbs just to anything?
Speaker 1 (33:24):
And you're a cheat like the damn Chiefs roll out
Patrick Mahomes and and people forget Alex Smith was fantastic.
Yeah with Kansas City and it's like, oh, we'll just
throw We'll throw up Patrick Mahomes in there. Nobody had
no I actually.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Find would say that Kansas City Chiefs have forced a
lot of teams to make the mistake of they take
a guy who's good, and they always are trying to
find somebody who's Patrick Mahomes. That can be that much
better because the Alex Smith Patrick Mahomes scenario. Every team
it's a copycat league. Every team's trying to do that
now and they always end up making the wrong decision.
(33:58):
It's like, you're not gonna find another Patrick. It's just
it's not gonna happen. You're not You're not gonna find
number Tom Brady's not under Patrick Mahomes. That's what teams do, though.
They try to mimic what the Chiefs have right now,
and you're just not gonna find it.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
Yeah, it's it's ridiculous what the Chiefs have, but they
don't have themselves.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
A little bit of a problem.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Chris Jones the greatest forty yard dash in the history
of the NFL. Comb If you have not seen Chris
Jones is forty yard dash from the combine.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
Cannot recommend it enough. Cannot recommend it enough.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Just imagine taking a bag into the produce aisle, a
paper bag and the uh you left the bottom on
like the kitchen countertop and didn't realize it was wet,
and then you go in there to grab a bunch
of candalopes and next thing you know, they're just spilling
all out over the floor in the produce aisle. Like
that's what it looked like, Chris Jones running his forty
(34:49):
yard dash. Listen, I mean, good for him, He's carrying
a lot of laundry there.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Yeah, so I was gonna say it. It was almost
like a French baghette like broke through the bottom of
the bag.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Yeah, listen, but you know that, not that I would know,
But Chris Jones had himself a little bit of an issue.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
Well he's got this other issue.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
He's now annually eighth amongst defensive tackles in the NFL.
When it comes to contracts, sure, well he should be
near the top. He should be, and he's got a
four year deal. What was eighty million dollars that he signed.
He's going into the final year of his deal. He
was asked about it on social media. When do you
plan it on coming back? He threw out Week eight
(35:26):
for some reason. I don't know that that is that sort.
Do you have to play ten ten games to.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Get in order to get an accredited season? You you've
got to have to report back and.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Play enough games.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
So that's why that week eight is the time.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
What she wants to make it recurring.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
I wonder how it lands with Mahomes though, because look,
if he wanted to, he could really tighten the screws
on the Chiefs and say I want more money, I
want to get paid.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
Can we be real?
Speaker 2 (35:51):
Though?
Speaker 3 (35:52):
We already saw what this team did without Tyreek Hill
last year they won a Super Bowl. Yeah, I don't
know that this place is an advantage if they start
out the first seven games, eight games the season right,
and they're what six and two, seven and one, and
they're on a path have the number one overall seed
again when the AFC West again, Like that doesn't help
(36:14):
create leverage for you, right when a team's winning without you.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
I'm surprised that it's gotten to this point though, I
think Andy read because now Andy Reids his talk on
it is we have not had any communication and eventually
we just gotta we gotta play games. But you like,
they were confident enough that they were talking and we're
gonna get a deal done, and yet here we are,
the season's approaching.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
And they still don't have a deal done.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
What's surprising to me is this is when you have
a quarterback like Patrick Mahomes and he's on a long
term deal, he's your mortgage company. So if you need
to create more cap space, you have to have an
owner that's willing to do this. But as long as
you can give Chris Jones a big load of cash,
meaning a signing bonus, you can structure it in a
way where you can make him happy.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
You can fit it under the cap and.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Then obviously you're gonna be making more, you know, creating
more gearing tease by paying out more cash to Patrick
Mahomes in exchange for his salary to do so. But
that's how you go about restructuring it. Most teams can't
do that, either because they don't have the quarterback to
be able to use as their mortgage company, or because
they're not on the long term deal. Patrick Mahomes is
there to restructure with. He's already like incredibly underpaid for
(37:20):
his talents. So that's what's surprising to me is when
you look at how this is drug on, it's the
fact that in house you've got a solution and for
whatever reason, the can say chiefs aren't going in that direction.
So I don't know if that's like a Hunt family
