Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
What's all idea? I can't focus, Maka, I mean, I
just can't focus. Lee. Lee's just super comfortable about Oh yeah, yeah.
He has all kinds of like Anahilysism breakdown, Like it's
(00:35):
like the show. You know, he's got it. You tell
us about this movie, Lee, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
This movie is called Sola.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Came out in twenty twenty, starring Taylor Page, Nicholas Brawn
from Severance Is Isn't it? Coleman Domingo, Riley Keo.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
What's the plot?
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Strippers travel from Detroit to Tampa to work for the
weekend but answer exotic answers and then they kind of
get hijacked by a pimp and then the weekend goes crazy.
It's based off of a real Twitter thread that was
highlighted in Rolling Stone, and if you read the whole
Twitter thread, it basically describes its entire movie. It's fantastic.
(01:18):
It's fantastic, it's great, it's hilarious. It's great, it's hilarious.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
It is. There hasn't been one scene that made me laugh, right, I.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
Mean, as I'm reading through the plot, it says here,
after Stefani engages in a gang bang at a private residence.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yeah, you're in, You're you're right, two.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
Women visit another hotel where a client has responded to
their backpage ad.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Okay, you don't say the fact that lisaid this is hilarious.
It's one of the.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Funniest movies you'll ever see.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
It's great, it's a fun This is considered.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
A movie previnces dude, ever since last week with Batman.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
I'm out, Well, watch the movie with the sound and
you tell me if you think it's funny or not.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
Based on what LeVar and Jonas have said so far
and the fact that I've got four kids, there's most
likely not a chance that I can watch this movie
at any point in.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Time missing out.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
And in case you were wondering about Lee's hilarious film,
the budget was five million for this film and it
made five point two million in the box all right,
an absolute stunner two to pass around.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
I think it only got released on a few screens,
but it's a cult classic.
Speaker 6 (02:35):
Four years later, there's no doubt you're right, le A
twenty four.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
It's good.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
I'm just confused as the how this could be one
of the most hilarious movies of all time. Like I
just I haven't seen anything that gives me hilarious.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
I mean this scene alone. I just look at these guys,
Nick Brown, and then they come.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
This is funny.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
This is too funny.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Eddie, are you watching?
Speaker 6 (02:59):
Eddie?
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Can't see if.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I can't see it? Okay, all right, Lorena, do you
find this to be a hilarious film?
Speaker 7 (03:07):
I had my eyes closed a lot of it. Laar
like this. You know, I haven't seen a lot of
comedy though.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Comedy makes you close your eyes when you're watching it.
Speaker 8 (03:15):
No.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Oh, yeah, well it's just I mean, now I know
a little bit more about Lee. I mean the I
if this is a comedy to Lee, Lee, You're not allowed.
Speaker 7 (03:26):
This is one of my recommendations from twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I invited you out to hang out this past weekend.
I said I'm not going to do it because you
didn't come when you were in Pasadena. But now my
reasoning for not invite you over anymore has changed.
Speaker 7 (03:41):
It's messed up, man.
Speaker 9 (03:42):
Yeah, LeVar is hanging out at the Stubborn Mule throws
out an invite and Lee tells them to go kick rocks.
Just disrespect man. And you're right up the road too.
We found out that yesterday, like.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Literally like twenty minutes away, twenty five minutes away. I mean,
had I gotten it invited, it would have gone. But
it's not true. That's why I didn't even invite you.
I would have had a better opportunity of seeing Q, which,
by the way, Q came on up on game thanks
my brother, like he joined the crew, like you know,
(04:16):
he was clicked out with his with his boys on Saturday. Dope,
it was a dope ass segment. Wow. I would have
had a better chance of seeing Q come meet me
at the Stubborn Mule for a couple of cocktails than
see you.
Speaker 7 (04:31):
Probably, Oh I know, yeah, Well that's why I didn't
invite you.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
I didn't know that that was the case with Lee.
Speaker 7 (04:37):
There's an appearance fee.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
I get it. You want me, there's an appearance fee.
And I told you that.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
The hard part was I had some people over because
we were watching the men's lax game for the for
the semi final, and uh, they were like distracting the
hell out of me as as I'm doing this with
var So, I felt about that the timing of it
didn't work out because there I believe that that game
started that new on Saturday, so it was a bit chaotic,
(05:02):
but we made it work.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Word dope, Well, I mean we do have.
Speaker 9 (05:06):
As what's been pointed out by many people on social media,
we are officially one hundred days away until the start
of the NFL season. Hell yeah, one hundred days.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
How did people describe their excitement for a hundred days
and anything on social worth sharing?
Speaker 9 (05:22):
I mean, yeah, there's some uh some some you know
videos of things giving birth. I saw which was which
is very interesting.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
Speaking of I came across this video this morning. Have
you seen a seahorse give birth before?
Speaker 10 (05:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
I just did as crazy. You know that they can
be they're both male and female.
Speaker 6 (05:45):
They're life heard that.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Yeah, they're really ahead of their time. I mean way
ahead of there. They don't need any prefixes or supplements
or for them condiments or anything like that.
Speaker 6 (05:56):
I just couldn't get over how many they have.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Oh they just I'm up out of here, shoot.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Like that, like like.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Yeah it is yea, they have both of them though
they have both things going on. What do you mean
both things? They have both things going on, male and female.
Speaker 7 (06:20):
Indoor and outdoor plumbing.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Yeah, no kidding, and can give birth. Kind a wow. Man,
good for them. I don't know about that. I mean,
I mean a lot of people would agree with you,
but you know, I don't know that.
Speaker 7 (06:31):
Let me listen. Uh, you know that was some people's
excitement was that was used.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
So the one hundred days is like a seahorse giving birth,
is what we're saying.
Speaker 9 (06:41):
Like those are the countdown everything coming out of there
is a countdown to at the start of the NFL season.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Uh, Now, we were saying otherwise.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
By the way, this is not what I thought I
was gonna see.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
What do you what do you mean?
Speaker 6 (06:54):
Horse? Move on?
Speaker 7 (06:55):
Yeah, so that's.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
A little interesting. Now, sea horses, you got's take you
down a rabbit hole. All right.
Speaker 9 (07:02):
So the obviously the NFL is trying to do this
international thing, and so they've got the game going on
in Brazil, and as we've talked about, you know, there'll
be a couple of players who don't make it back
from that game, and it's unfortunate, but you know they'll
they'll get out there and realize the game check spends
and goes a little bit further in South Paulo than
it does maybe in Philly or Green Bay. And so
(07:24):
the NFL is going to be in Brazil, They're going
to be in London. There's a game in Spain coming up,
there's a game in some games in Germany that'll be
happening based on how successful that's been over the past
couple of years. We've seen games in Mexico, and now
we're also hearing Paris and Dublin being brought up. Now
Abu Dhabi is being brought up. According to the New
(07:46):
York Times, Australia is being thrown out.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
LaVar.
Speaker 9 (07:51):
You mentioned Italy yesterday. Japan and Italy are in the
discussion as well.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
Yeah, get us well too it you.
Speaker 7 (07:58):
Love Japan, So it does feel like what was that city?
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Like, yeah, the city in Japan? Wha, what city is
you're talking about? Uh No, it's okay, okay, yeah, that one.
That one.
Speaker 9 (08:15):
So you know, the NFL is going international. I have
a concern though, does this mean we're going to lose
the Super Bowl? Because that cannot happen. You cannot have
a super Bowl in one of these international locations.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
And it's just a vacation. The reason for a vacation,
Come on, man, like that.
Speaker 9 (08:33):
That is we need to stake the claim the super
Bowl is ours. Let you kind of have you know,
you have a couple of games here or there. You
can get a preseason game, maybe you can get like,
you know, a couple of regular season games. We'll try
some stuff out. No lead, no division set up in Europe,
all right, none of this crap that was floated out there.
Maybe we'll have a division in Europe. You don't get
(08:54):
a division. You don't get the super Bowl.
Speaker 7 (08:56):
If the Jags want to go there, and they want
to and they want to play in London permanently, yeah,
if they want to jagg.
Speaker 8 (09:03):
Drag on and they drag off.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
I mean, what would you call it?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Tang?
Speaker 8 (09:10):
What I mean?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
In theory, the Jacksonville team on a bye week would
be considered to be what.
Speaker 8 (09:22):
Jack off?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
There you go, I'm made the jagged off I made
say I'm with you, you.
Speaker 7 (09:28):
Know, as a better fact, let's just go ahead and look, it's.
Speaker 6 (09:32):
Kind of like what you're watching right now. But I.
Speaker 11 (09:37):
Think about this, By the way, the super Bowl is
already a corporate event, though, is it not. Yes, yes, absolutely,
outside of the home fans from each team being there,
which is it does not take up the entire stadium.
The super Bowl is a gigantic event for all these
corporations out there.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
I gotta be honest, it's not my favorit. It's not.
Speaker 5 (10:02):
I like conference championship weekend better. I like the home
games better. I like there being more of a feel
of the crowd, et cetera, being you know, more partial
to their teams, and you just do not get that
in a Super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
So it's a probably an unpopular opinion, but for all
the Super Bowls we've gone to and worked at, we
can kind of step back and take a look at it,
and it feels like it's more of a I'm not
gonna call it a circus, but an attraction. It feels
like people are there for so many different reasons, some
(10:39):
of which have nothing to do with the game. So
I can understand how the NFL would maybe float this
sort of idea out there at the International Games, and
even the idea that one day maybe they would go
to an international venue for it, because all right, like
the home fans that are going to travel are probably
gonna travel regardless. And when you start thinking about the
(11:00):
ticket price to go to a super Bowl, really, if
you're spending that much cash just to go for the
ticket and the hotels and the flights everything else, what's
just going a little bit further internationally, Like what's the difference?
At that point, You're probably still gonna get the same
people who go are going to go, and they don't
think it's cool it's the first international super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
I think what it stinks for.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
Is all these other teams that are in the United
States building a new stadium with the thought or promise
or idea in their head that they're going to get.
Speaker 6 (11:34):
A super Bowl could get leapfrogged, could get.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
Leapfrogged by, you know, an international city that wants to
host it and is willing to pay the NFL.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
To do so.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
I mean, think about that economic driver, by the way,
because that's what it comes down to, is one of
these cities willing to essentially bring the Super Bowl to
their city by bidding more than what we're going to
a bid or what are you know cities are able
to bid for in the United States to host a
Super Bowl.
Speaker 7 (12:05):
Oh Abu Dabi nobody's competing with them.
Speaker 6 (12:07):
There you go.
Speaker 9 (12:08):
I mean, there you go, and you're already seeing like
all these international events or these you know, sporting events
going on there. You know UFC events, you're seeing you know,
wwe go over there boxing.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
We know how Dublin works. Dublin, Dublin, excuse me, Ireland
the country. But Dublin, Ireland is an unbelievable place to
do business. Like forget about sports for a second. Like
the tax incentives over there, it's an unbelievable place. That's
why you see so many people moving to have headquarters
and you know, having some you know, some sort of
(12:42):
office over in Dublin, Ireland for that reason. But they're
getting more heavily involved than and bringing sports there. I mean,
we witnessed it firsthand last year. They're doing it again
this year. They're doing it in the following year.
Speaker 6 (12:52):
And then there's.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
Incentives for those teams and programs going there, and for
the locals and even some who are just curious to
see the game of college football. They'll travel and to
watch it. They'll travel and to see it and again
for different reasons. And I remember the cab driver reacted
one day. He was he was excited about the flyover
because they're like they don't get that for rugby matches
and for soccer matches. So his whole thing was like,
(13:14):
oh man, he's like, I can't wait for the flyover.
We're like what He's like, yeah, the flyover, Like oh okay,
you're excited about the planes fly out of the.
Speaker 6 (13:22):
Stadium Like cool, all right whatever.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
We're like you realize, like once that's done, then the
game starts, it's like three or three more hours to go.
Speaker 9 (13:29):
I'm still not sure that they were supposed to get
that close on the flyover like that was.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
That was pretty pretty cool.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
It was kind of cloudy. I mean, yeah, maybe they
had bad visibility.
Speaker 9 (13:38):
But I think that this show and members of this
show would not last a full Super Bowl week in Ireland.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
It just wouldn't.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
Lee's gone by Wednesday, Gone's gone? Dang, Yeah he would be.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
I made it a whole week, Yeah, Dublin, what are
we talking?
Speaker 8 (13:55):
Not really wasn't a full week, Lee, not really.
Speaker 6 (13:58):
We were there, it wasn't a full week.
Speaker 9 (14:00):
We got there what on Wednesday and we were out
on Sunday morning, Like, I don't think by by Wednesday
of Super Bowl week. It's over for Lee. Gone at
any of these international locations.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
I can't believe we caught caught up with one another
at Super Bowl, Like that really happened. We ate somewhere
together outside of the show. Yeah, we were like friends
outside of the show. It's pretty interesting. Yeah. At Wings,
Wings were good, fries were good. Lee was looking around
(14:34):
taking shots of a Tanger Ray out of his shot bottle.
Speaker 7 (14:39):
By the way least, So I mean we were buying.
Speaker 8 (14:42):
That's what's weird.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
It is we're in a casino. This this tells you.
And now it's all starting to come together for me
on Lee after listening to him say that a porn
soft porn was a was a comedy. But he's we're
in a casino. He wasn't even paying, he wasn't by
(15:04):
what are you sneaking?
Speaker 7 (15:05):
Well, that's that's for the best part.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
So once we go out, you could get a free
jake wherever it is that ja.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
We were in a restaurant, and that's going to cost you,
like way too much money.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
At the restaurant. But here's the other thing.
Speaker 9 (15:17):
The one place where you can walk around with a
mini bottle of booze that you bought at some liquor
store somewhere and not be judged for it is Vegas.
Speaker 8 (15:28):
So why are you trying to sneak it?
Speaker 4 (15:29):
You're just so used to because we were sitting down
at a table at an establishment, and if you just
busting out stuff at a restaurant, they're gonna I.
Speaker 7 (15:37):
Don't think they would have cared. I would have cared,
you think, So.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
Why are we questioning the Lee? He's a pro at this.
Speaker 5 (15:46):
If anyone knows the etiquette of drinking in public and trying.
Speaker 6 (15:49):
To disclose it or I guess not disclose it, it
would be Lee.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
He was so suspicious in how he look.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
I was very upset at myself.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
I went to the Rose Bowl this weekend, and I
brought stuff to sneak in.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
That's so I keep rubbing it in. But I was,
but I was in those people there, you wouldn't have
had to sneak it in.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
But I was waiting in line so long to get
into the venue that I just started drinking it.
Speaker 7 (16:14):
So you had nothing when you got in.
Speaker 4 (16:16):
Yeah, so then I had to start buying expensive drinks
inside the Rose Bowl. I was very upset at myself.
Speaker 9 (16:22):
Hey thing, Yeah, that's a real shame time.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
I hung out with me and got a whole bunch.
Speaker 9 (16:31):
Of Hey, you teasing peas for you blew through your
stash in line instead of actually at the actual venue.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Maybe that's why my knee is hurting because I did.
I drank this weekend. My knee is hurting. Cue, I'm
getting hit. I gotta go think the.
Speaker 6 (16:50):
Weather.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
It's no, no, I think it's the it's the Ohio
State knee. Oh no, yeah, I think I'm gonna have
to go get popped in the knee today. Really, but
I drank. I drank this weekend, so I think I'm
gonna have to stop drinking.
Speaker 10 (17:05):
Man.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
I did see Ah.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
It was an ad where I was talking about like
the biggest trends of twenty twenty four and they're like, oh, yeah,
you know, it's it's all about not drinking.
Speaker 6 (17:16):
And I was like, huh huh, ex loser, that's like
it happened for me.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
I don't want to stop. Hey, I'm looking pretty good.
My abs are coming in. But let me tell you something.
I drank this weekend, Like I really drank, Like I
was drinking like around the clock, woke up, had a
sunrise drink. You know that's I'm big on grapefruit or
(17:43):
or pineapple juice with my tequilas you know, or my
mask cats. You guys know that. Yeah, yeah, I was
drinking a lot this weekend, man, and I enjoyed it,
like I haven't drink in so long. I enjoyed it.
But I'm paying pre I'm paying for it right now,

So Tom Brady was on Fox Sports Radio yesterday. He
was on the Herd with Colin Coward, which you can
hear on many of these Fox Sports Radio affiliates. And
I don't know if he's still in roast mode, but
seems he's like he hasn't come out of it.
Speaker 8 (20:31):
Well, I.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Don't think on the pivot roasting too.
Speaker 9 (20:36):
Yeah, Well, he was on the radio yesterday, and I'm
not sure if he's aware of the fact that you
know some things you can and can't say on the radio.
We talked about walking the fine line here on this show,
like we've got to be very careful about things we say.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Sometimes you can get dumped.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
And Tom Brady yesterday was discussing his approach to broadcasting
now that he'll be the part of the number one
team with Kevin Burkhart this upcoming NFL season. So let's
listen to Tom Brady. Tom Brady on Fox Sports Radio yesterday.
Speaker 15 (21:09):
There are definitely parts of me that are hyper competitive,
and certainly they were as a player and as an athlete.
I love that competition. I relished that competition daily. I
didn't get it was practice, if it was a game,
if it was ping pong, if we were playing trash
ketball in the in the locker room, I wanted to win.
(21:30):
There's other parts where I feel like I've matured a
little bit and I don't necessarily have to be absolutely.
Speaker 10 (21:38):
Competitive at everything.
Speaker 8 (21:39):
It's a little more selective.
Speaker 15 (21:41):
I think if I want to put effort into something,
then natural I'll be Naturally I'll be more competitive at
it because I'll invest in a little bit of my time,
a little bit of my.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Energy into it.
Speaker 15 (21:52):
Certainly with the broadcaster, I don't think for me it's
about competition. I think it's for me it's about did
I put everything I could in to it? And did
I give the fans everything that they tuned in for?
And that's really how I end up gauging myself and
and I'll have to look at myself at the end
of every Sunday night, going did I.
Speaker 6 (22:13):
Do a good enough job.
Speaker 8 (22:14):
Did I live up to the belief that Fox had
in me?
Speaker 15 (22:18):
Did I live up to the expectations of my teammates
Kevin Burkhart and Aaron and Tom and Richie's Ions and
rich Russo in our entire truck, the entire team. That's
that's ultimately how I judge myself in that new role.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
That's a guy getting prepared for the gig.
Speaker 9 (22:32):
And also a guy very comfortable the wild card in
the room. Because there was some speculation when Bruce Arians
did broadcasting for a year, They're like, how's this going
to work? He's got a bit of a foul mouth, Like,
how's how's Bruce Arians gonna work? He does have a
little bit of a little bit, man, Maybe maybe Brady's
got that foul mouth.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
It comes out too, It comes out easy.
Speaker 7 (22:53):
Yeah, it came out on the show.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Came out easy. Trying to figure out that we had
to dump it. In fact we did.
Speaker 6 (23:00):
We did.
Speaker 7 (23:05):
A little bit of an issue.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
He probably should have been bleeped out so that the
people could hear it. I think that it was and
something well, Tom Brady deflated the bleepout.
Speaker 6 (23:18):
Yeah, he said, shoot, but a different word.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
I'm really fascinated and curious to see how he will
be absorbed by the masses because he is the He
has the ultimate trump card to any of the yahoos,
any of the folks that have an opinion on social
(23:45):
media or want to criticize whatever he does, because he
is the greatest of all time. But before Tom Brady,
there was Joe Montana, who was the greatest of all time,
and yet it didn't work out.
Speaker 6 (23:59):
For him for whatever reason.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
And so I am curious to see what the reaction
will be, what the criticism will be, because you know
that it's gonna be out there, and you know, based
on his affiliation with the Pats, there's probably Pats fans
who will love him, some Tom Brady fans who will
love him, and maybe the Bucks fans who love him
that are excited to see him. But when you're as
(24:24):
successful as he is, when you're a good looking guy
as well spoken who's successful, there's gonna be plenty of
haters out there too. And given his style, just the
little bit that we've seen over the years, you know,
it's really more When he became a Tampa Bay Buck,
he was kind of out in the public more at least,
(24:45):
you know, the press conferences and doing other things. And
now since he's retired, I think he's gonna be polarizing.
I think he's gonna be very polarizing with what he
calls games because he's not going to be afraid of
giving his opinion. I don't think he's gonna be afraid
at all of criticizing, and that's really what that job entails.
Speaker 6 (25:05):
So I'm fascinated to see how this is all.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
Going to work out, how it's going to be absorbed,
which d bag on X or whatever else or Instagram.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
Or something that's going to have a comment to make
about somebody said.
Speaker 7 (25:17):
Where would they be sending that comment from.
Speaker 5 (25:20):
It could be from their parents' basement, it could be
from wherever they're living, you know, where they feel like
they're really big in their community, but no one really
knows them, right, you know, outside of their quote unquote community.
It's all in things like that. But it doesn't matter.
That's the funny thing is, it doesn't matter who these
guys are. And Tom Brady's the greatest of all time.
(25:41):
There will be people who try to take issue with
something that he says, which is always fascinating to me,
it's like, why do you care that much?
Speaker 6 (25:51):
But people do.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
They love sports, they love their team, and they're willing
to defend them, even versus a guy who's won seven
Super Bowls.
Speaker 9 (25:58):
They're also going to be quick to judge. They're gonna
because anything you do. And I'm sure you guy, you
guys have called games before and done radio before the
first one in comparison to the one you do, you
know in week ten or different. Yeah, And so if
he comes out and maybe it's a little rocky the
first game, there's going to be people that go. And
(26:18):
they gave his spot, gave Greg Golsen spot to him
for this, and it's like, dude, give him a little
bit of time. I know what he's making, I know
who he is. I know there's anticipation, but it's going
to take him time to probably find his rhythm through
all this stuff, and he's probably going to get significantly
better through the course of the stet.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
I think he's finding that rhythm in that time now.
Speaker 7 (26:38):
Like Tony Romo's gotten worse. Okay, I don't, I don't.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
I would not even begin to compare the two of them,
for the simple fact that if you know who Tom
Brady is you know, his preparation is going to be
through the roof.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
That's why I think he's just gonna get better and better.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
I was gonna say that there might there might not
be more polar opposite.
Speaker 9 (26:57):
Well, but that's my point is that Tony Romo. It
felt like because of that, he's gone in the opposite direction.
Speaker 7 (27:04):
Where's Brady?
Speaker 9 (27:04):
If he struggles week one, I think he's just gonna
get better and better throughout the year.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
Can I be honest though, too?
Speaker 5 (27:09):
I feel like there's a lot of folks behind the
scenes who pushed promo to be favorable. And I'm not
going to completely out everything, but there was such a
strong push behind the scenes for him to be liked
and for.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
Him to be like, hey, he's our number one guy.
Speaker 5 (27:26):
Because of the move that CBS made was controversial. Phil
Simms had the greatest Super Bowl performance ever ever, arguably,
I guess you want to put it that way, and
you moved on from a guy who has been doing
a good job.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
Who did a good job at least that's my opinion
of it.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
For a guy who had never I mean, that job
entails having to call a super Bowl, and there's probably
a common thought out there that like, hey, how can
you call this if you've never.
Speaker 6 (27:54):
Been to one?
Speaker 5 (27:55):
So it's controversial, Like people feel like, if you're in
that broadcast booth, you have to have at least been
able to say you've been there. Maybe not even win it,
but at least been there. There's a lot of executives,
a lot of people who feel that way, and so
when they went with Romo, he obviously didn't have any
of that in his history. I mean, again, the success
(28:17):
of tom Brady compared to Romo is not even common.
Speaker 6 (28:21):
I mean and even you can go.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
A step further, like, look out, tom Brady takes care
of his body, how he trains, how he prepares everything else,
how he portrays himself.
Speaker 6 (28:30):
It's not even comparable.
Speaker 5 (28:33):
So you have this really stark contrast between the two
where when Fox hires tom Brady, like there's no justification,
Like they don't need to come out and say, hey, guys,
we need to like tom Brady's gonna be really good
at this, Like they don't need to do that.
Speaker 6 (28:46):
His resume immediately speaks for itself.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
It's one of the reasons why he warrants what he's
getting paid and why you know, executives will go to
this and make this move because they know that to
the audience, he comes in with a mediate credibility, even
though he's got no experience of doing this job because
of what he did in the prior job that he's
talking about on TV. And whereas with Romo, there's still
(29:10):
a lot of skepticism, at least when he initially took
over the job, and so there was a lot of
people behind the scenes who are pushing to make sure
you talk favorably, make sure you're excited, to make sure
you talk about how great it's gonna be, great he's
gonna be.
Speaker 6 (29:24):
There was a lot of that going on.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
And then as you heard him do the job, and
as things wore on, you're like, wait a second, this
isn't really what we kind of thought we were signing
up for here, you know.
Speaker 9 (29:38):
I mean, I think he missed a game for a
golf tournament, if I'm not mistaken most positive, really yeah,
I think he qualified for some tournament and missed a game,
And I got I want to say, that was like
two or three years ago, so I can't imagine Tom
Brady's gonna pull that off.
Speaker 7 (29:57):
But I do also think this all the love.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
As I said, you almost said my name in there.
Speaker 5 (30:02):
I was like, don't worry one, I'm not good enough
at golf to actually make something where I would be
in that situation too.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Yeah, you're you're my Brady. Okay, I'm loyal. That's cute.
I'm loyal.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
I think you're actually misconstring this story. By the way,
he didn't end up missing the game. I think he
would have ended up missing the game, but he missed
the cut, So I understand. I think this was like
five years ago, but at least this was like that.
Speaker 6 (30:30):
It was a Vikings game. I think that's that was
what it was.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
I think to the to Brady's point, to Jonas's point,
I think it's still the idea that he's not all in,
but there's still that there's still the idea that if
he made the cut, he would have missed the game.
So I just don't I don't. I know that they're there.
(30:54):
Everybody is is at their level. They have a level
of you know, multiple things that you're doing, all right,
You're diverse and what it is you have going on.
I just don't think that Tom Brady is going to
at the point in time which he starts calling games,
(31:15):
will have anything on his plate that is more important
than his focus and him nailing what it is he's
going to do and calling these games. I just do
not just knowing how he is and the times that
I mean, the dude is as competitive as like I've seen.
I've been at Preakness with him. The way they gamble
(31:38):
and the way they hang out, all them dudes together,
it's also super competitive.
Speaker 9 (31:43):
Don't you think that The fact that Greg Olsen's getting
all this love and Greg Olsen did a great job,
and the fact that there is a lot of discussion
out there about why would you do this? Yeah, Like
you don't think Brady's hearing all that going, Oh you
don't think I could do that good of a job? Like,
if he's that competitive, that's just going to bleed over
into this.
Speaker 6 (32:02):
Are you saying he's got the red ass Hell?
Speaker 9 (32:04):
Yes, all he's been hearing is I mean, for for
all of this, you're going to give up all, you know,
greg Olsen's job to Tom Brady? What is like Tom
Brady's never done this before. There's there's no guarantees this
is going to work out. People are pointing to all
these other examples of guys like Drew Brees and Joe
Montana and all these other guys that it didn't work guys.
I just I think he's going to find a way
(32:27):
and will himself to be.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Great at this. Jerry Rice in the Booth?
Speaker 7 (32:32):
Was Jerry Rice in the Booth too? Oh yeah, oh
I remember EMITTT.
Speaker 8 (32:36):
Smith.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
Go look up Jerry Rice in the Boot.
Speaker 5 (32:38):
So one of the hardest things I think is you
have to have a chip on your shoulder, I really
do to be as aggressive, to really have the desire
to want to continue to keep pursuing it like you
did in the previous career. And look, some of these
guys make so much money nowadays. It's like it's like
an afterthought of what they're doing. It fits their lives ale,
(33:00):
it helps pay some of the bills coming in right,
still gives them some notoriety stayed around the game, but
it's not everything to them.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
Yeah, And I think to your point about Tom Brady,
like he's just not wired that way right, Like he's.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
It's almost like the Jordan documentary where he's making up
things to be motivated about. Yeah, Like I would bet
he's got like you don't you don't think I deserve
to be paid thirty seven point five million dollars like
he might have that up on.
Speaker 6 (33:26):
A mirror side.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
I pay somebody like pays his kids just to talk trash.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
What was that for? There was a skit, I swear
to god it was on Instagram. There was a skit
where it was like like.
Speaker 5 (33:41):
You got somebody needs to be like humbled whatever, Like
you can pay dudes to call you and talk trash
to you.
Speaker 6 (33:46):
It was amazing. I wish I could find this. Oh,
it was amazing. I'm trying. I gotta, I gotta find
this and share this with you guys.
Speaker 9 (33:55):
Well, I mean, listen, it's gonna be a lot of
fun to watch. And you know, if Tom Brady does
want to show up on this show, you know we've
got a dump button.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Ready to go.
Speaker 9 (34:05):
You know, we are ready to go and we will
press it if.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
He needs it.
Speaker 9 (34:09):
We got him, so no problem there, Lee, we got
everything's good. We're all clear. Nobody got in trouble, all right,
We're good.

Speaker 7 (34:59):
It is a Wednesday tradition. He's the old p on Twitter.
Speaker 9 (35:02):
He is Petros Papadaik is the co host of the
Petros and Money Show, which you can hear on the
blowtorch Am five to seventy LA Sports Fox College Football
Analyst and Petro's good morning. Uh yeah, big breaking news.
Pe the number fifty four prospect in the draft on
some draft boards.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Let's go, it's staying.
Speaker 8 (35:21):
Yeah. I set my alarm for five am to do this,
and I wake up and I check the headlines, and
that's the number one headline that Bronnie James is staying
in the draft. Yes, and Rich Paul told ESPN exclusively
like two hours before the deadline. Hours before the deadline,
(35:44):
every was like, you know, a guy being executed and
waiting for the pardon from the governor and you're sitting
in the electric chair, and then finally the call comes in,
and right is the switch is being pulled. Don't do it,
don't do it. He's gonna stay, you know, let's work out.
He's gonna stay in the draft. So great. You know,
it's interesting. I hate coming on and doing a Bronnie
(36:08):
James thing every single time we do this, but it
is interesting that. And we talked to Bill Plashki about this,
the La Times columnist who wins all those awards every
year is the best sports writer in the country. And
I think Bill had it right. He just said, the
whole thing's a fade, a complete Lebron's coming back to
(36:31):
the Lakers. He's running that franchise. They're too weak to
do anything else and too scared to do anything else, apparently,
and they're gonna end up bringing Bronni there one way
or another, and however it works out the way they
want it. For clutch sports, they're going to have it
their way like Burger King and all of this other stuff.
(36:52):
We're doing, all of these gymnastics, this BS headline that
we all have to pay attention to today when there's
other stuff going on. What else is going on? I'm
not sure, but there's got to be something else than this.
But all of this is just, I don't know, mutual
masturbation gymnastics. Dang, really, I mean that's what it seems like.
(37:14):
I mean, all of this, we're just going through the motions.
We should be talking about the Mavericks or or the
Celtics or whatever, but instead we're talking about the worst
prospect in one of the worst drafts in NBA history.
I mean, isn't that what we've been doing for weeks
and weeks and weeks and weeks. And the reason we're
(37:35):
doing it is because he's somebody's son. And that's fine,
but it's not because he's somebody's son. The reason we're
doing it is because he's somebody's son. And the dad,
who is extremely powerful, has been nothing but delusional and
obnoxious regarding this whole situation.
Speaker 7 (37:52):
I don't even James for it.
Speaker 8 (37:55):
No, how can you. We've only heard it Burton speak once.
You know, I mean there's but whatever's going on around
him is pretty I guess confounding if you're annoyed by
the way the modern sports media works. And I don't
even know what that means. I don't even know what
the modern sports media is. But just saying those three
(38:15):
words feels bad. It's not good, right. I mean, when
Stephen A. Smith is the head of the snake, we're
probably in trouble as far as the modern sports media goes.
And that's just it's sad. It's just sad that this
is us in the spring and I'm I can't wait
for the summer.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
Petros, what about any thought? I mean, he's still really young.
I mean, it could be a late bloomer. Does he
continue to grow, continues to develop, maybe into more of
the type of player that you know, three four years
down the road that we look at and say, no,
look they got it right, Like he wasn't quite there then,
but there was a lot of upside. There's the gene
or lineage. I mean, is there any thought in the
(38:56):
back of your mind for that?
Speaker 8 (38:57):
I don't know. I mean, I just I know it
doesn't work that way.
Speaker 5 (39:02):
I mean, well, so let me push back because I
don't agree with that. There's plenty of times we see
guys who've played the NFL and people will look at Suns,
look at their liddage and say, I'm willing to take
a chance on him, even though he's not a finished
product now, and I think he can develop through.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
His time in college, et cetera.
Speaker 8 (39:21):
Yeah, we're not talking about Ironhead Hayward's kid here, caam
Hayward by them Hayward. I mean, if you guys haven't
watched Craig Ironhead Hayward, who's passed away, if you have
not watched his video, if you've not watched that guy's
highlight tape running the ball at like two ninety at
(39:41):
pitt And and mostly for the Saints, it's pretty sweet. No,
I understand what you're saying, Brady. I don't. I adhere
to people I know quite well. And I know a
guy who is quite involved with the draft and quite
involved with developing prospects and working people out for the draft,
(40:02):
and was at this combine because it's such a bad
draft that he had to go to this combine and
sell his guys more than they normally do. And the
general consensus from all of those people we talked to
on and off the air, is not an NBA prospect.
They're not saying not an NBA prospect, but just and
(40:26):
this is and football I think is a little different
because you could play with aggression and violence and emotion
and serve a purpose and you could be super limited
in one way and still really serve a purpose in another.
I don't really think that's the case in modern basketball,
at least not to that extreme. So that would be
(40:47):
my argument there. But I don't know enough. Like I'm
not a basketball like, I'm not a basketball draft expert.
All I know is that this is BS. And I
mean it's clearly BS because and that's what what bothers
me about modern day sports is we're presented with a
table of crap and then we sit there and sift
(41:07):
through it for like months to try to see if
there's like a peanut in there, and it's not worth it,
you know, it's it's not worth our time, and yet
we've spent seven minutes on.
Speaker 9 (41:17):
It over Yeah, I feel like this because you Brady,
I feel like.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
This is more comparable to the Griffy's than it is
to the Haywards.
Speaker 6 (41:28):
That was an odd poll from you, Petros, Why the Haywards.
Speaker 8 (41:31):
Yeah, I just thought of a guy who played football.
Dad played football.
Speaker 5 (41:34):
That was the first one you came to, though, Like
I like Craig Iron.
Speaker 10 (41:38):
I don't know you would waiting to get to that.
I'm just saying.
Speaker 2 (41:42):
I mean, I feel like Petros, you you got to
give credit where credit is due. I mean, Bronnie James
has put himself in a position to be like King
Griffy Junior to his dad kN kN Griffy the Senior
and be in the same lead. And you know, there
may be a story where you know, you know, lebron scores,
(42:04):
you know, twenty points in the game, and then Bronni
comes back and scores twenty one or twenty three in
the same game on the same team. Because he's probably
getting drafted by the Lakers. That's they probably confirmed that
art complete. Yeah, I mean, how to me, I think
that that's how you got to look at it, right.
Speaker 10 (42:20):
I mean, they called him junior, they called him the kid.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
Don't you think that one of these nicknames will find
itself landing on.
Speaker 8 (42:28):
You can't even get through Don't you think that one
of these can't even get through it.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
I'm just trying to stay I'm stating the positive in
the eyes.
Speaker 8 (42:38):
No, no, I mean the positive bars that the.
Speaker 10 (42:40):
Kid doesn't fall on Bronnie James the kid, Like.
Speaker 8 (42:43):
Isn't isn't the NEPO Baby's probably a pter. But isn't
Ken Griffy one of the greatest baseball players and prospects
of all time?
Speaker 2 (42:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (42:55):
And it isn't that what they said about bron isn't
his swing like the greatest swing in the history of baseball?
I saw Ken Griffy Junior a few times when his
son was playing receiver for Arizona, And by the way,
we did not like even though Ken Griffy is one
of the great he's a Hall of Famer, right, yeah, yeah,
(43:15):
even though he's a Hall of Famer, we didn't do
the whole open about his kid, who was the seventh
receiver on the Arizona team that was five hundred. You
know what I'm saying, Like, isn't that comparable?
Speaker 6 (43:26):
Like?
Speaker 8 (43:26):
Why haven't? And I thought Kendrick Perkins made a good
point the other day, even though I think those shows
are so ridiculous. Kendrick Perkins said, we didn't do this
for Scotty Pippens kid and I get it that Scottie
Pippens not Lebron, but it's just odd that we've gone
this far for this one guy and we don't go
we don't even go ten yards for any of these
(43:48):
other guys kids. But I do remember seeing Ken Griffy
a lot on the road and stuff when I was
covering that team, or did a couple games or three
or four when his son was playing, and we'd see
him at restaurants and stuff after the games, and I
was like, dude, that guy is fat and small, and
he's one of the great baseball players of all time.
(44:10):
Like you know, you see Shoe a Otani or Freddie
Freeman or like Aaron Judge, you're like, damn, you know,
that's a big guy. But every once in a while
you see these other baseball guys, like stand next to
Mookie Batts, and you're like, you know, yeah, I can
see why all the dads in my neighborhood think that
their one loser kid is going to be the next
big time baseball player, because you can be like just
sort of a normal looking guy and be a great
(44:32):
baseball star. And that really is not the case in
the NBA, really, or or football. You got to kind
of pass the eyeball test just walking in the door.
But yeah, I remember Griffy's kid and we didn't freak
out about him in the open.
Speaker 7 (44:48):
By the way, I should be poor.
Speaker 8 (44:49):
Never ever met a cat kid.
Speaker 6 (44:52):
Ken saw like an old bed so to feel like
get off their front lawn.
Speaker 9 (44:56):
Yeah, Ken Griffy Senior. Not a Hall of Famer, but
still a great career. The drunk one.
Speaker 8 (45:04):
Was he the drunk or was a Barry Bonds's dad?
Speaker 6 (45:07):
How would you describe Patrick mahomes dad, Petros.
Speaker 8 (45:10):
That's what made me think of it.
Speaker 10 (45:12):
Take the keys.
Speaker 8 (45:13):
Well, that's like the old Billy Joel joke right back
when Billy Joel was like driving into people. Know it's
a it's a well, Billy Joel is actually very humorous,
but uh, but Billy Joel, for a time I had
a real problem drinking and driving and was just crashing
almost into every house. Yeah, it was rough, it was rough,
(45:35):
and uh you know, uh and uh I remember somebody
was like, Billy's great, don't give him the keys, you know.
And that's kind of the sit that's that seems like
the same situation with Mahomes's dad. By the way, well lead, well,
come on, it's so flat hunt. Uh my my. Uh.
(45:58):
We used to have an uncle. He died of alcohol
hallism with my sun bowl watch on and buried in it.
Speaker 5 (46:04):
By the time he got buried with your son bowl
wash on, you didn't have any other watch.
Speaker 8 (46:09):
But I had an uncle. It was a bad alcoholic.
His name was Alex Alecho in Greek uncle Aleco, and
he used to watch the parking lot at the restaurant
that my dad owned.
Speaker 10 (46:22):
When I was a mussel.
Speaker 8 (46:24):
Kind of yeah. He was a big, red faced, very lanky,
drunk both face and oh yeah with like with a
sweet black jet black mummy.
Speaker 10 (46:34):
So he didn't have to red ass. He had to
red face.
Speaker 8 (46:36):
I never saw his ass LeVar.
Speaker 2 (46:38):
Oh, okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 8 (46:39):
It would have been weird, son. No, no, So my
dad used to He used to watch a parking lot.
And when I was working at the restaurant, my dad
would get a water, a glass of water, a cup
that we used for water, and pour a cooking brandy
Christian Brothers almost full no ice into a water glass
(46:59):
and he'd say, bring your uncle his medicine and I
would run. I would run across the street with the
brandy twice or three times a night prowling, and then
you know, around ten, you know, and I was like nine, eight, ten,
and then around uh, you know, ten thirty eleven o'clock
(47:21):
at night when things would start winding down, my dad
would say, tell Alex to drive you home, and I'd
be like today, So he would drive us home and
like some gigantic canoe like you know, Pontiac, you know,
from the seventies. And I remember, you know, being a
little kid and seeing stuff on the air about drunk
driving and all these things and all these commercials and
(47:45):
disclaimers and stuff. I remember asking my mom and saying,
you know, I'm pretty sure you know, Uncle Alex is drunk,
you know when he's driving us around. And my mom said, yes,
but he's very careful.
Speaker 7 (48:04):
A different time. Fee.
Speaker 6 (48:06):
Yeah, by the.
Speaker 9 (48:07):
Way, didn't you say I've heard you say on the
other that your mom's a big fan of gin right.
Speaker 8 (48:11):
We made wheat? Well, you know, to be honest, my
mom is kind of a space cadet, and she's she's fine,
she's a lovely lady, and she's from Arcadia. But I
don't know what it was, but I was doing a
it's like some local TV interview when I was playing
at USC about Mother's Day, you know, around spring football.
(48:31):
So they came out to interview some of the guys
on the team about their mom. And I don't know
why I said it, but they're like, you know, does
your mom come to the games? And I said, well,
maybe if you put a bottle of gin on the
fifty yard lunch. And I mean, there was no reason
to say that it was defamatory and not even acting
although she is' she was a gin drinker, you know,
(48:52):
but not excessively. And so then you know, just from
then on, you know, I don't know, just be like
she's drunk and we put my dad on the radio
and I'd be like, you know, dad, is she all right? No?
I cant you know she I can't get her out
of bed. She's drunk again, you know.
Speaker 6 (49:11):
Like so.
Speaker 8 (49:13):
It just kind of became a developing joke. But she's
not really a drunk. She survived breast cancer. She didn't bury.
Speaker 2 (49:23):
We sir Petros Thursday, Friday, next Monday and Tuesday, I
mean tomorrow, tomorrow.

like almost got fairy like John Wayne.
Speaker 8 (51:02):
Well, John Wayne actually was a backup uh lineman at
the USC Yeah, under the name Marion Morrison.
Speaker 6 (51:09):

players and football players. You know, you're you're you're the
you're the weakest guy in the football team. But everybody
on the basketball court scared of you. Uh dang, isn't

Speaker 2 (00:14):
What's all idea? I can't focus, Maka, I mean, I
just can't focus. Lee. Lee's just super comfortable about Oh yeah, yeah.
He has all kinds of like Anahilysism breakdown, Like it's
(00:35):
like the show. You know, he's got it. You tell
us about this movie, Lee, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
This movie is called Sola.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Came out in twenty twenty, starring Taylor Page, Nicholas Brawn
from Severance Is Isn't it? Coleman Domingo, Riley Keo.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
What's the plot?
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Strippers travel from Detroit to Tampa to work for the
weekend but answer exotic answers and then they kind of
get hijacked by a pimp and then the weekend goes crazy.
It's based off of a real Twitter thread that was
highlighted in Rolling Stone, and if you read the whole
Twitter thread, it basically describes its entire movie. It's fantastic.
(01:18):
It's fantastic, it's great, it's hilarious. It's great, it's hilarious.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
It is. There hasn't been one scene that made me laugh, right, I.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
Mean, as I'm reading through the plot, it says here,
after Stefani engages in a gang bang at a private residence.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yeah, you're in, You're you're right, two.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
Women visit another hotel where a client has responded to
their backpage ad.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Okay, you don't say the fact that lisaid this is hilarious.
It's one of the.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Funniest movies you'll ever see.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
It's great, it's a fun This is considered.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
A movie previnces dude, ever since last week with Batman.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
I'm out, Well, watch the movie with the sound and
you tell me if you think it's funny or not.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
Based on what LeVar and Jonas have said so far
and the fact that I've got four kids, there's most
likely not a chance that I can watch this movie
at any point in.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Time missing out.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
And in case you were wondering about Lee's hilarious film,
the budget was five million for this film and it
made five point two million in the box all right,
an absolute stunner two to pass around.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
I think it only got released on a few screens,
but it's a cult classic.
Speaker 6 (02:35):
Four years later, there's no doubt you're right, le A
twenty four.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
It's good.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
I'm just confused as the how this could be one
of the most hilarious movies of all time. Like I
just I haven't seen anything that gives me hilarious.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
I mean this scene alone. I just look at these guys,
Nick Brown, and then they come.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
This is funny.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
This is too funny.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Eddie, are you watching?
Speaker 6 (02:59):
Eddie?
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Can't see if.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I can't see it? Okay, all right, Lorena, do you
find this to be a hilarious film?
Speaker 7 (03:07):
I had my eyes closed a lot of it. Laar
like this. You know, I haven't seen a lot of
comedy though.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Comedy makes you close your eyes when you're watching it.
Speaker 8 (03:15):
No.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Oh, yeah, well it's just I mean, now I know
a little bit more about Lee. I mean the I
if this is a comedy to Lee, Lee, You're not allowed.
Speaker 7 (03:26):
This is one of my recommendations from twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I invited you out to hang out this past weekend.
I said I'm not going to do it because you
didn't come when you were in Pasadena. But now my
reasoning for not invite you over anymore has changed.
Speaker 7 (03:41):
It's messed up, man.
Speaker 9 (03:42):
Yeah, LeVar is hanging out at the Stubborn Mule throws
out an invite and Lee tells them to go kick rocks.
Just disrespect man. And you're right up the road too.
We found out that yesterday, like.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Literally like twenty minutes away, twenty five minutes away. I mean,
had I gotten it invited, it would have gone. But
it's not true. That's why I didn't even invite you.
I would have had a better opportunity of seeing Q, which,
by the way, Q came on up on game thanks
my brother, like he joined the crew, like you know,
(04:16):
he was clicked out with his with his boys on Saturday. Dope,
it was a dope ass segment. Wow. I would have
had a better chance of seeing Q come meet me
at the Stubborn Mule for a couple of cocktails than
see you.
Speaker 7 (04:31):
Probably, Oh I know, yeah, Well that's why I didn't
invite you.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
I didn't know that that was the case with Lee.
Speaker 7 (04:37):
There's an appearance fee.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
I get it. You want me, there's an appearance fee.
And I told you that.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
The hard part was I had some people over because
we were watching the men's lax game for the for
the semi final, and uh, they were like distracting the
hell out of me as as I'm doing this with
var So, I felt about that the timing of it
didn't work out because there I believe that that game
started that new on Saturday, so it was a bit chaotic,
(05:02):
but we made it work.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Word dope, Well, I mean we do have.
Speaker 9 (05:06):
As what's been pointed out by many people on social media,
we are officially one hundred days away until the start
of the NFL season. Hell yeah, one hundred days.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
How did people describe their excitement for a hundred days
and anything on social worth sharing?
Speaker 9 (05:22):
I mean, yeah, there's some uh some some you know
videos of things giving birth. I saw which was which
is very interesting.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
Speaking of I came across this video this morning. Have
you seen a seahorse give birth before?
Speaker 10 (05:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
I just did as crazy. You know that they can
be they're both male and female.
Speaker 6 (05:45):
They're life heard that.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Yeah, they're really ahead of their time. I mean way
ahead of there. They don't need any prefixes or supplements
or for them condiments or anything like that.
Speaker 6 (05:56):
I just couldn't get over how many they have.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Oh they just I'm up out of here, shoot.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Like that, like like.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Yeah it is yea, they have both of them though
they have both things going on. What do you mean
both things? They have both things going on, male and female.
Speaker 7 (06:20):
Indoor and outdoor plumbing.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Yeah, no kidding, and can give birth. Kind a wow. Man,
good for them. I don't know about that. I mean,
I mean a lot of people would agree with you,
but you know, I don't know that.
Speaker 7 (06:31):
Let me listen. Uh, you know that was some people's
excitement was that was used.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
So the one hundred days is like a seahorse giving birth,
is what we're saying.
Speaker 9 (06:41):
Like those are the countdown everything coming out of there
is a countdown to at the start of the NFL season.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Uh, Now, we were saying otherwise.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
By the way, this is not what I thought I
was gonna see.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
What do you what do you mean?
Speaker 6 (06:54):
Horse? Move on?
Speaker 7 (06:55):
Yeah, so that's.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
A little interesting. Now, sea horses, you got's take you
down a rabbit hole. All right.
Speaker 9 (07:02):
So the obviously the NFL is trying to do this
international thing, and so they've got the game going on
in Brazil, and as we've talked about, you know, there'll
be a couple of players who don't make it back
from that game, and it's unfortunate, but you know they'll
they'll get out there and realize the game check spends
and goes a little bit further in South Paulo than
it does maybe in Philly or Green Bay. And so
(07:24):
the NFL is going to be in Brazil, They're going
to be in London. There's a game in Spain coming up,
there's a game in some games in Germany that'll be
happening based on how successful that's been over the past
couple of years. We've seen games in Mexico, and now
we're also hearing Paris and Dublin being brought up. Now
Abu Dhabi is being brought up. According to the New
(07:46):
York Times, Australia is being thrown out.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
LaVar.
Speaker 9 (07:51):
You mentioned Italy yesterday. Japan and Italy are in the
discussion as well.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
Yeah, get us well too it you.
Speaker 7 (07:58):
Love Japan, So it does feel like what was that city?
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Like, yeah, the city in Japan? Wha, what city is
you're talking about? Uh No, it's okay, okay, yeah, that one.
That one.
Speaker 9 (08:15):
So you know, the NFL is going international. I have
a concern though, does this mean we're going to lose
the Super Bowl? Because that cannot happen. You cannot have
a super Bowl in one of these international locations.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
And it's just a vacation. The reason for a vacation,
Come on, man, like that.
Speaker 9 (08:33):
That is we need to stake the claim the super
Bowl is ours. Let you kind of have you know,
you have a couple of games here or there. You
can get a preseason game, maybe you can get like,
you know, a couple of regular season games. We'll try
some stuff out. No lead, no division set up in Europe,
all right, none of this crap that was floated out there.
Maybe we'll have a division in Europe. You don't get
(08:54):
a division. You don't get the super Bowl.
Speaker 7 (08:56):
If the Jags want to go there, and they want
to and they want to play in London permanently, yeah,
if they want to jagg.
Speaker 8 (09:03):
Drag on and they drag off.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
I mean, what would you call it?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Tang?
Speaker 8 (09:10):
What I mean?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
In theory, the Jacksonville team on a bye week would
be considered to be what.
Speaker 8 (09:22):
Jack off?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
There you go, I'm made the jagged off I made
say I'm with you, you.
Speaker 7 (09:28):
Know, as a better fact, let's just go ahead and look, it's.
Speaker 6 (09:32):
Kind of like what you're watching right now. But I.
Speaker 11 (09:37):
Think about this, By the way, the super Bowl is
already a corporate event, though, is it not. Yes, yes, absolutely,
outside of the home fans from each team being there,
which is it does not take up the entire stadium.
The super Bowl is a gigantic event for all these
corporations out there.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
I gotta be honest, it's not my favorit. It's not.
Speaker 5 (10:02):
I like conference championship weekend better. I like the home
games better. I like there being more of a feel
of the crowd, et cetera, being you know, more partial
to their teams, and you just do not get that
in a Super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
So it's a probably an unpopular opinion, but for all
the Super Bowls we've gone to and worked at, we
can kind of step back and take a look at it,
and it feels like it's more of a I'm not
gonna call it a circus, but an attraction. It feels
like people are there for so many different reasons, some
(10:39):
of which have nothing to do with the game. So
I can understand how the NFL would maybe float this
sort of idea out there at the International Games, and
even the idea that one day maybe they would go
to an international venue for it, because all right, like
the home fans that are going to travel are probably
gonna travel regardless. And when you start thinking about the
(11:00):
ticket price to go to a super Bowl, really, if
you're spending that much cash just to go for the
ticket and the hotels and the flights everything else, what's
just going a little bit further internationally, Like what's the difference?
At that point, You're probably still gonna get the same
people who go are going to go, and they don't
think it's cool it's the first international super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
I think what it stinks for.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
Is all these other teams that are in the United
States building a new stadium with the thought or promise
or idea in their head that they're going to get.
Speaker 6 (11:34):
A super Bowl could get leapfrogged, could get.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
Leapfrogged by, you know, an international city that wants to
host it and is willing to pay the NFL.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
To do so.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
I mean, think about that economic driver, by the way,
because that's what it comes down to, is one of
these cities willing to essentially bring the Super Bowl to
their city by bidding more than what we're going to
a bid or what are you know cities are able
to bid for in the United States to host a
Super Bowl.
Speaker 7 (12:05):
Oh Abu Dabi nobody's competing with them.
Speaker 6 (12:07):
There you go.
Speaker 9 (12:08):
I mean, there you go, and you're already seeing like
all these international events or these you know, sporting events
going on there. You know UFC events, you're seeing you know,
wwe go over there boxing.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
We know how Dublin works. Dublin, Dublin, excuse me, Ireland
the country. But Dublin, Ireland is an unbelievable place to
do business. Like forget about sports for a second. Like
the tax incentives over there, it's an unbelievable place. That's
why you see so many people moving to have headquarters
and you know, having some you know, some sort of
(12:42):
office over in Dublin, Ireland for that reason. But they're
getting more heavily involved than and bringing sports there. I mean,
we witnessed it firsthand last year. They're doing it again
this year. They're doing it in the following year.
Speaker 6 (12:52):
And then there's.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
Incentives for those teams and programs going there, and for
the locals and even some who are just curious to
see the game of college football. They'll travel and to
watch it. They'll travel and to see it and again
for different reasons. And I remember the cab driver reacted
one day. He was he was excited about the flyover
because they're like they don't get that for rugby matches
and for soccer matches. So his whole thing was like,
(13:14):
oh man, he's like, I can't wait for the flyover.
We're like what He's like, yeah, the flyover, Like oh okay,
you're excited about the planes fly out of the.
Speaker 6 (13:22):
Stadium Like cool, all right whatever.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
We're like you realize, like once that's done, then the
game starts, it's like three or three more hours to go.
Speaker 9 (13:29):
I'm still not sure that they were supposed to get
that close on the flyover like that was.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
That was pretty pretty cool.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
It was kind of cloudy. I mean, yeah, maybe they
had bad visibility.
Speaker 9 (13:38):
But I think that this show and members of this
show would not last a full Super Bowl week in Ireland.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
It just wouldn't.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
Lee's gone by Wednesday, Gone's gone? Dang, Yeah he would be.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
I made it a whole week, Yeah, Dublin, what are
we talking?
Speaker 8 (13:55):
Not really wasn't a full week, Lee, not really.
Speaker 6 (13:58):
We were there, it wasn't a full week.
Speaker 9 (14:00):
We got there what on Wednesday and we were out
on Sunday morning, Like, I don't think by by Wednesday
of Super Bowl week. It's over for Lee. Gone at
any of these international locations.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
I can't believe we caught caught up with one another
at Super Bowl, Like that really happened. We ate somewhere
together outside of the show. Yeah, we were like friends
outside of the show. It's pretty interesting. Yeah. At Wings,
Wings were good, fries were good. Lee was looking around
(14:34):
taking shots of a Tanger Ray out of his shot bottle.
Speaker 7 (14:39):
By the way least, So I mean we were buying.
Speaker 8 (14:42):
That's what's weird.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
It is we're in a casino. This this tells you.
And now it's all starting to come together for me
on Lee after listening to him say that a porn
soft porn was a was a comedy. But he's we're
in a casino. He wasn't even paying, he wasn't by
(15:04):
what are you sneaking?
Speaker 7 (15:05):
Well, that's that's for the best part.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
So once we go out, you could get a free
jake wherever it is that ja.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
We were in a restaurant, and that's going to cost you,
like way too much money.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
At the restaurant. But here's the other thing.
Speaker 9 (15:17):
The one place where you can walk around with a
mini bottle of booze that you bought at some liquor
store somewhere and not be judged for it is Vegas.
Speaker 8 (15:28):
So why are you trying to sneak it?
Speaker 4 (15:29):
You're just so used to because we were sitting down
at a table at an establishment, and if you just
busting out stuff at a restaurant, they're gonna I.
Speaker 7 (15:37):
Don't think they would have cared. I would have cared,
you think, So.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
Why are we questioning the Lee? He's a pro at this.
Speaker 5 (15:46):
If anyone knows the etiquette of drinking in public and trying.
Speaker 6 (15:49):
To disclose it or I guess not disclose it, it
would be Lee.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
He was so suspicious in how he look.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
I was very upset at myself.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
I went to the Rose Bowl this weekend, and I
brought stuff to sneak in.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
That's so I keep rubbing it in. But I was,
but I was in those people there, you wouldn't have
had to sneak it in.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
But I was waiting in line so long to get
into the venue that I just started drinking it.
Speaker 7 (16:14):
So you had nothing when you got in.
Speaker 4 (16:16):
Yeah, so then I had to start buying expensive drinks
inside the Rose Bowl. I was very upset at myself.
Speaker 9 (16:22):
Hey thing, Yeah, that's a real shame time.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
I hung out with me and got a whole bunch.
Speaker 9 (16:31):
Of Hey, you teasing peas for you blew through your
stash in line instead of actually at the actual venue.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Maybe that's why my knee is hurting because I did.
I drank this weekend. My knee is hurting. Cue, I'm
getting hit. I gotta go think the.
Speaker 6 (16:50):
Weather.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
It's no, no, I think it's the it's the Ohio
State knee. Oh no, yeah, I think I'm gonna have
to go get popped in the knee today. Really, but
I drank. I drank this weekend, so I think I'm
gonna have to stop drinking.
Speaker 10 (17:05):
Man.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
I did see Ah.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
It was an ad where I was talking about like
the biggest trends of twenty twenty four and they're like, oh, yeah,
you know, it's it's all about not drinking.
Speaker 6 (17:16):
And I was like, huh huh, ex loser, that's like
it happened for me.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
I don't want to stop. Hey, I'm looking pretty good.
My abs are coming in. But let me tell you something.
I drank this weekend, Like I really drank, Like I
was drinking like around the clock, woke up, had a
sunrise drink. You know that's I'm big on grapefruit or
(17:43):
or pineapple juice with my tequilas you know, or my
mask cats. You guys know that. Yeah, yeah, I was
drinking a lot this weekend, man, and I enjoyed it,
like I haven't drink in so long. I enjoyed it.
But I'm paying pre I'm paying for it right now,
my joint said, my joint in my knee said to me,
(18:06):
you did something incorrect. We've been we've been living on
the straight and arrow. We've been getting getting good, good
progress in and you're going to go and do this. Okay,
there you go take this now. I'm sure i'mna have
to go get that thing popped, you know what I mean,
Get get that inflammation up out of it.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
Just do this. Dust that liver off, Dust it off.
By Friday afternoon, start tipping and ripping again.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
You say I brought my water bottle in here. I
haven't even drink my water. I haven't even taken a
sip of water because the show has been running so fast. Yeah,
I haven't even had a chance to. You know, now
that we've turned this movie off and Lorrain, it's finally changed.

Speaker 9 (20:17):
So Tom Brady was on Fox Sports Radio yesterday. He
was on the Herd with Colin Coward, which you can
hear on many of these Fox Sports Radio affiliates. And
I don't know if he's still in roast mode, but
seems he's like he hasn't come out of it.
Speaker 8 (20:31):
Well, I.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Don't think on the pivot roasting too.
Speaker 9 (20:36):
Yeah, Well, he was on the radio yesterday, and I'm
not sure if he's aware of the fact that you
know some things you can and can't say on the radio.
We talked about walking the fine line here on this show,
like we've got to be very careful about things we say.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Sometimes you can get dumped.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
And Tom Brady yesterday was discussing his approach to broadcasting
now that he'll be the part of the number one
team with Kevin Burkhart this upcoming NFL season. So let's
listen to Tom Brady. Tom Brady on Fox Sports Radio yesterday.
Speaker 15 (21:09):
There are definitely parts of me that are hyper competitive,
and certainly they were as a player and as an athlete.
I love that competition. I relished that competition daily. I
didn't get it was practice, if it was a game,
if it was ping pong, if we were playing trash
ketball in the in the locker room, I wanted to win.
(21:30):
There's other parts where I feel like I've matured a
little bit and I don't necessarily have to be absolutely.
Speaker 10 (21:38):
Competitive at everything.
Speaker 8 (21:39):
It's a little more selective.
Speaker 15 (21:41):
I think if I want to put effort into something,
then natural I'll be Naturally I'll be more competitive at
it because I'll invest in a little bit of my time,
a little bit of my.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Energy into it.
Speaker 15 (21:52):
Certainly with the broadcaster, I don't think for me it's
about competition. I think it's for me it's about did
I put everything I could in to it? And did
I give the fans everything that they tuned in for?
And that's really how I end up gauging myself and
and I'll have to look at myself at the end
of every Sunday night, going did I.
Speaker 6 (22:13):
Do a good enough job.
Speaker 8 (22:14):
Did I live up to the belief that Fox had
in me?
Speaker 15 (22:18):
Did I live up to the expectations of my teammates
Kevin Burkhart and Aaron and Tom and Richie's Ions and
rich Russo in our entire truck, the entire team. That's
that's ultimately how I judge myself in that new role.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
That's a guy getting prepared for the gig.
Speaker 9 (22:32):
And also a guy very comfortable the wild card in
the room. Because there was some speculation when Bruce Arians
did broadcasting for a year, They're like, how's this going
to work? He's got a bit of a foul mouth, Like,
how's how's Bruce Arians gonna work? He does have a
little bit of a little bit, man, Maybe maybe Brady's
got that foul mouth.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
It comes out too, It comes out easy.
Speaker 7 (22:53):
Yeah, it came out on the show.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Came out easy. Trying to figure out that we had
to dump it. In fact we did.
Speaker 6 (23:00):
We did.
Speaker 7 (23:05):
A little bit of an issue.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
He probably should have been bleeped out so that the
people could hear it. I think that it was and
something well, Tom Brady deflated the bleepout.
Speaker 6 (23:18):
Yeah, he said, shoot, but a different word.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
I'm really fascinated and curious to see how he will
be absorbed by the masses because he is the He
has the ultimate trump card to any of the yahoos,
any of the folks that have an opinion on social
(23:45):
media or want to criticize whatever he does, because he
is the greatest of all time. But before Tom Brady,
there was Joe Montana, who was the greatest of all time,
and yet it didn't work out.
Speaker 6 (23:59):
For him for whatever reason.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
And so I am curious to see what the reaction
will be, what the criticism will be, because you know
that it's gonna be out there, and you know, based
on his affiliation with the Pats, there's probably Pats fans
who will love him, some Tom Brady fans who will
love him, and maybe the Bucks fans who love him
that are excited to see him. But when you're as
(24:24):
successful as he is, when you're a good looking guy
as well spoken who's successful, there's gonna be plenty of
haters out there too. And given his style, just the
little bit that we've seen over the years, you know,
it's really more When he became a Tampa Bay Buck,
he was kind of out in the public more at least,
(24:45):
you know, the press conferences and doing other things. And
now since he's retired, I think he's gonna be polarizing.
I think he's gonna be very polarizing with what he
calls games because he's not going to be afraid of
giving his opinion. I don't think he's gonna be afraid
at all of criticizing, and that's really what that job entails.
Speaker 6 (25:05):
So I'm fascinated to see how this is all.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
Going to work out, how it's going to be absorbed,
which d bag on X or whatever else or Instagram.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
Or something that's going to have a comment to make
about somebody said.
Speaker 7 (25:17):
Where would they be sending that comment from.
Speaker 5 (25:20):
It could be from their parents' basement, it could be
from wherever they're living, you know, where they feel like
they're really big in their community, but no one really
knows them, right, you know, outside of their quote unquote community.
It's all in things like that. But it doesn't matter.
That's the funny thing is, it doesn't matter who these
guys are. And Tom Brady's the greatest of all time.
(25:41):
There will be people who try to take issue with
something that he says, which is always fascinating to me,
it's like, why do you care that much?
Speaker 6 (25:51):
But people do.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
They love sports, they love their team, and they're willing
to defend them, even versus a guy who's won seven
Super Bowls.
Speaker 9 (25:58):
They're also going to be quick to judge. They're gonna
because anything you do. And I'm sure you guy, you
guys have called games before and done radio before the
first one in comparison to the one you do, you
know in week ten or different. Yeah, And so if
he comes out and maybe it's a little rocky the
first game, there's going to be people that go. And
(26:18):
they gave his spot, gave Greg Golsen spot to him
for this, and it's like, dude, give him a little
bit of time. I know what he's making, I know
who he is. I know there's anticipation, but it's going
to take him time to probably find his rhythm through
all this stuff, and he's probably going to get significantly
better through the course of the stet.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
I think he's finding that rhythm in that time now.
Speaker 7 (26:38):
Like Tony Romo's gotten worse. Okay, I don't, I don't.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
I would not even begin to compare the two of them,
for the simple fact that if you know who Tom
Brady is you know, his preparation is going to be
through the roof.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
That's why I think he's just gonna get better and better.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
I was gonna say that there might there might not
be more polar opposite.
Speaker 9 (26:57):
Well, but that's my point is that Tony Romo. It
felt like because of that, he's gone in the opposite direction.
Speaker 7 (27:04):
Where's Brady?
Speaker 9 (27:04):
If he struggles week one, I think he's just gonna
get better and better throughout the year.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
Can I be honest though, too?
Speaker 5 (27:09):
I feel like there's a lot of folks behind the
scenes who pushed promo to be favorable. And I'm not
going to completely out everything, but there was such a
strong push behind the scenes for him to be liked
and for.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
Him to be like, hey, he's our number one guy.
Speaker 5 (27:26):
Because of the move that CBS made was controversial. Phil
Simms had the greatest Super Bowl performance ever ever, arguably,
I guess you want to put it that way, and
you moved on from a guy who has been doing
a good job.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
Who did a good job at least that's my opinion
of it.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
For a guy who had never I mean, that job
entails having to call a super Bowl, and there's probably
a common thought out there that like, hey, how can
you call this if you've never.
Speaker 6 (27:54):
Been to one?
Speaker 5 (27:55):
So it's controversial, Like people feel like, if you're in
that broadcast booth, you have to have at least been
able to say you've been there. Maybe not even win it,
but at least been there. There's a lot of executives,
a lot of people who feel that way, and so
when they went with Romo, he obviously didn't have any
of that in his history. I mean, again, the success
(28:17):
of tom Brady compared to Romo is not even common.
Speaker 6 (28:21):
I mean and even you can go.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
A step further, like, look out, tom Brady takes care
of his body, how he trains, how he prepares everything else,
how he portrays himself.
Speaker 6 (28:30):
It's not even comparable.
Speaker 5 (28:33):
So you have this really stark contrast between the two
where when Fox hires tom Brady, like there's no justification,
Like they don't need to come out and say, hey, guys,
we need to like tom Brady's gonna be really good
at this, Like they don't need to do that.
Speaker 6 (28:46):
His resume immediately speaks for itself.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
It's one of the reasons why he warrants what he's
getting paid and why you know, executives will go to
this and make this move because they know that to
the audience, he comes in with a mediate credibility, even
though he's got no experience of doing this job because
of what he did in the prior job that he's
talking about on TV. And whereas with Romo, there's still
(29:10):
a lot of skepticism, at least when he initially took
over the job, and so there was a lot of
people behind the scenes who are pushing to make sure
you talk favorably, make sure you're excited, to make sure
you talk about how great it's gonna be, great he's
gonna be.
Speaker 6 (29:24):
There was a lot of that going on.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
And then as you heard him do the job, and
as things wore on, you're like, wait a second, this
isn't really what we kind of thought we were signing
up for here, you know.
Speaker 9 (29:38):
I mean, I think he missed a game for a
golf tournament, if I'm not mistaken most positive, really yeah,
I think he qualified for some tournament and missed a game,
And I got I want to say, that was like
two or three years ago, so I can't imagine Tom
Brady's gonna pull that off.
Speaker 7 (29:57):
But I do also think this all the love.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
As I said, you almost said my name in there.
Speaker 5 (30:02):
I was like, don't worry one, I'm not good enough
at golf to actually make something where I would be
in that situation too.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Yeah, you're you're my Brady. Okay, I'm loyal. That's cute.
I'm loyal.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
I think you're actually misconstring this story. By the way,
he didn't end up missing the game. I think he
would have ended up missing the game, but he missed
the cut, So I understand. I think this was like
five years ago, but at least this was like that.
Speaker 6 (30:30):
It was a Vikings game. I think that's that was
what it was.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
I think to the to Brady's point, to Jonas's point,
I think it's still the idea that he's not all in,
but there's still that there's still the idea that if
he made the cut, he would have missed the game.
So I just don't I don't. I know that they're there.
(30:54):
Everybody is is at their level. They have a level
of you know, multiple things that you're doing, all right,
You're diverse and what it is you have going on.
I just don't think that Tom Brady is going to
at the point in time which he starts calling games,
(31:15):
will have anything on his plate that is more important
than his focus and him nailing what it is he's
going to do and calling these games. I just do
not just knowing how he is and the times that
I mean, the dude is as competitive as like I've seen.
I've been at Preakness with him. The way they gamble
(31:38):
and the way they hang out, all them dudes together,
it's also super competitive.
Speaker 9 (31:43):
Don't you think that The fact that Greg Olsen's getting
all this love and Greg Olsen did a great job,
and the fact that there is a lot of discussion
out there about why would you do this? Yeah, Like
you don't think Brady's hearing all that going, Oh you
don't think I could do that good of a job? Like,
if he's that competitive, that's just going to bleed over
into this.
Speaker 6 (32:02):
Are you saying he's got the red ass Hell?
Speaker 9 (32:04):
Yes, all he's been hearing is I mean, for for
all of this, you're going to give up all, you know,
greg Olsen's job to Tom Brady? What is like Tom
Brady's never done this before. There's there's no guarantees this
is going to work out. People are pointing to all
these other examples of guys like Drew Brees and Joe
Montana and all these other guys that it didn't work guys.
I just I think he's going to find a way
(32:27):
and will himself to be.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Great at this. Jerry Rice in the Booth?
Speaker 7 (32:32):
Was Jerry Rice in the Booth too? Oh yeah, oh
I remember EMITTT.
Speaker 8 (32:36):
Smith.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
Go look up Jerry Rice in the Boot.
Speaker 5 (32:38):
So one of the hardest things I think is you
have to have a chip on your shoulder, I really
do to be as aggressive, to really have the desire
to want to continue to keep pursuing it like you
did in the previous career. And look, some of these
guys make so much money nowadays. It's like it's like
an afterthought of what they're doing. It fits their lives ale,
(33:00):
it helps pay some of the bills coming in right,
still gives them some notoriety stayed around the game, but
it's not everything to them.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
Yeah, And I think to your point about Tom Brady,
like he's just not wired that way right, Like he's.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
It's almost like the Jordan documentary where he's making up
things to be motivated about. Yeah, Like I would bet
he's got like you don't you don't think I deserve
to be paid thirty seven point five million dollars like
he might have that up on.
Speaker 6 (33:26):
A mirror side.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
I pay somebody like pays his kids just to talk trash.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
What was that for? There was a skit, I swear
to god it was on Instagram. There was a skit
where it was like like.
Speaker 5 (33:41):
You got somebody needs to be like humbled whatever, Like
you can pay dudes to call you and talk trash
to you.
Speaker 6 (33:46):
It was amazing. I wish I could find this. Oh,
it was amazing. I'm trying. I gotta, I gotta find
this and share this with you guys.
Speaker 9 (33:55):
Well, I mean, listen, it's gonna be a lot of
fun to watch. And you know, if Tom Brady does
want to show up on this show, you know we've
got a dump button.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Ready to go.
Speaker 9 (34:05):
You know, we are ready to go and we will
press it if.

everything's good. We're all clear. Nobody got in trouble, all right,

(35:44):
every was like, you know, a guy being executed and
waiting for the pardon from the governor and you're sitting
in the electric chair, and then finally the call comes in,
and right is the switch is being pulled. Don't do it,
don't do it. He's gonna stay, you know, let's work out.
He's gonna stay in the draft. So great. You know,
it's interesting. I hate coming on and doing a Bronnie
(36:08):
James thing every single time we do this, but it
is interesting that. And we talked to Bill Plashki about this,
the La Times columnist who wins all those awards every
year is the best sports writer in the country. And
I think Bill had it right. He just said, the
whole thing's a fade, a complete Lebron's coming back to
(36:31):
the Lakers. He's running that franchise. They're too weak to
do anything else and too scared to do anything else, apparently,
and they're gonna end up bringing Bronni there one way
or another, and however it works out the way they
want it. For clutch sports, they're going to have it
their way like Burger King and all of this other stuff.
(36:52):
We're doing, all of these gymnastics, this BS headline that
we all have to pay attention to today when there's
other stuff going on. What else is going on? I'm
not sure, but there's got to be something else than this.
But all of this is just, I don't know, mutual
masturbation gymnastics. Dang, really, I mean that's what it seems like.
(37:14):
I mean, all of this, we're just going through the motions.
We should be talking about the Mavericks or or the
Celtics or whatever, but instead we're talking about the worst
prospect in one of the worst drafts in NBA history.
I mean, isn't that what we've been doing for weeks
and weeks and weeks and weeks. And the reason we're
(37:35):
doing it is because he's somebody's son. And that's fine,
but it's not because he's somebody's son. The reason we're
doing it is because he's somebody's son. And the dad,
who is extremely powerful, has been nothing but delusional and
obnoxious regarding this whole situation.
Speaker 7 (37:52):
I don't even James for it.
Speaker 8 (37:55):
No, how can you. We've only heard it Burton speak once.
You know, I mean there's but whatever's going on around
him is pretty I guess confounding if you're annoyed by
the way the modern sports media works. And I don't
even know what that means. I don't even know what
the modern sports media is. But just saying those three
(38:15):
words feels bad. It's not good, right. I mean, when
Stephen A. Smith is the head of the snake, we're
probably in trouble as far as the modern sports media goes.
And that's just it's sad. It's just sad that this
is us in the spring and I'm I can't wait
for the summer.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
Petros, what about any thought? I mean, he's still really young.
I mean, it could be a late bloomer. Does he
continue to grow, continues to develop, maybe into more of
the type of player that you know, three four years
down the road that we look at and say, no,
look they got it right, Like he wasn't quite there then,
but there was a lot of upside. There's the gene
or lineage. I mean, is there any thought in the
(38:56):
back of your mind for that?
Speaker 8 (38:57):
I don't know. I mean, I just I know it
doesn't work that way.
Speaker 5 (39:02):
I mean, well, so let me push back because I
don't agree with that. There's plenty of times we see
guys who've played the NFL and people will look at Suns,
look at their liddage and say, I'm willing to take
a chance on him, even though he's not a finished
product now, and I think he can develop through.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
His time in college, et cetera.
Speaker 8 (39:21):
Yeah, we're not talking about Ironhead Hayward's kid here, caam
Hayward by them Hayward. I mean, if you guys haven't
watched Craig Ironhead Hayward, who's passed away, if you have
not watched his video, if you've not watched that guy's
highlight tape running the ball at like two ninety at
(39:41):
pitt And and mostly for the Saints, it's pretty sweet. No,
I understand what you're saying, Brady. I don't. I adhere
to people I know quite well. And I know a
guy who is quite involved with the draft and quite
involved with developing prospects and working people out for the draft,
(40:02):
and was at this combine because it's such a bad
draft that he had to go to this combine and
sell his guys more than they normally do. And the
general consensus from all of those people we talked to
on and off the air, is not an NBA prospect.
They're not saying not an NBA prospect, but just and
(40:26):
this is and football I think is a little different
because you could play with aggression and violence and emotion
and serve a purpose and you could be super limited
in one way and still really serve a purpose in another.
I don't really think that's the case in modern basketball,
at least not to that extreme. So that would be
(40:47):
my argument there. But I don't know enough. Like I'm
not a basketball like, I'm not a basketball draft expert.
All I know is that this is BS. And I
mean it's clearly BS because and that's what what bothers
me about modern day sports is we're presented with a
table of crap and then we sit there and sift
(41:07):
through it for like months to try to see if
there's like a peanut in there, and it's not worth it,
you know, it's it's not worth our time, and yet
we've spent seven minutes on.
Speaker 9 (41:17):
It over Yeah, I feel like this because you Brady,
I feel like.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
This is more comparable to the Griffy's than it is
to the Haywards.
Speaker 6 (41:28):
That was an odd poll from you, Petros, Why the Haywards.
Speaker 8 (41:31):
Yeah, I just thought of a guy who played football.
Dad played football.
Speaker 5 (41:34):
That was the first one you came to, though, Like
I like Craig Iron.
Speaker 10 (41:38):
I don't know you would waiting to get to that.
I'm just saying.
Speaker 2 (41:42):
I mean, I feel like Petros, you you got to
give credit where credit is due. I mean, Bronnie James
has put himself in a position to be like King
Griffy Junior to his dad kN kN Griffy the Senior
and be in the same lead. And you know, there
may be a story where you know, you know, lebron scores,
(42:04):
you know, twenty points in the game, and then Bronni
comes back and scores twenty one or twenty three in
the same game on the same team. Because he's probably
getting drafted by the Lakers. That's they probably confirmed that
art complete. Yeah, I mean, how to me, I think
that that's how you got to look at it, right.
Speaker 10 (42:20):
I mean, they called him junior, they called him the kid.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
Don't you think that one of these nicknames will find
itself landing on.
Speaker 8 (42:28):
You can't even get through Don't you think that one
of these can't even get through it.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
I'm just trying to stay I'm stating the positive in
the eyes.
Speaker 8 (42:38):
No, no, I mean the positive bars that the.
Speaker 10 (42:40):
Kid doesn't fall on Bronnie James the kid, Like.
Speaker 8 (42:43):
Isn't isn't the NEPO Baby's probably a pter. But isn't
Ken Griffy one of the greatest baseball players and prospects
of all time?
Speaker 2 (42:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (42:55):
And it isn't that what they said about bron isn't
his swing like the greatest swing in the history of baseball?
I saw Ken Griffy Junior a few times when his
son was playing receiver for Arizona, And by the way,
we did not like even though Ken Griffy is one
of the great he's a Hall of Famer, right, yeah, yeah,
(43:15):
even though he's a Hall of Famer, we didn't do
the whole open about his kid, who was the seventh
receiver on the Arizona team that was five hundred. You
know what I'm saying, Like, isn't that comparable?
Speaker 6 (43:26):
Like?
Speaker 8 (43:26):
Why haven't? And I thought Kendrick Perkins made a good
point the other day, even though I think those shows
are so ridiculous. Kendrick Perkins said, we didn't do this
for Scotty Pippens kid and I get it that Scottie
Pippens not Lebron, but it's just odd that we've gone
this far for this one guy and we don't go
we don't even go ten yards for any of these
(43:48):
other guys kids. But I do remember seeing Ken Griffy
a lot on the road and stuff when I was
covering that team, or did a couple games or three
or four when his son was playing, and we'd see
him at restaurants and stuff after the games, and I
was like, dude, that guy is fat and small, and
he's one of the great baseball players of all time.
(44:10):
Like you know, you see Shoe a Otani or Freddie
Freeman or like Aaron Judge, you're like, damn, you know,
that's a big guy. But every once in a while
you see these other baseball guys, like stand next to
Mookie Batts, and you're like, you know, yeah, I can
see why all the dads in my neighborhood think that
their one loser kid is going to be the next
big time baseball player, because you can be like just
sort of a normal looking guy and be a great
(44:32):
baseball star. And that really is not the case in
the NBA, really, or or football. You got to kind
of pass the eyeball test just walking in the door.
But yeah, I remember Griffy's kid and we didn't freak
out about him in the open.
Speaker 7 (44:48):
By the way, I should be poor.
Speaker 8 (44:49):
Never ever met a cat kid.
Speaker 6 (44:52):
Ken saw like an old bed so to feel like
get off their front lawn.
Speaker 9 (44:56):
Yeah, Ken Griffy Senior. Not a Hall of Famer, but
still a great career. The drunk one.
Speaker 8 (45:04):
Was he the drunk or was a Barry Bonds's dad?
Speaker 6 (45:07):
How would you describe Patrick mahomes dad, Petros.
Speaker 8 (45:10):
That's what made me think of it.
Speaker 10 (45:12):
Take the keys.
Speaker 8 (45:13):
Well, that's like the old Billy Joel joke right back
when Billy Joel was like driving into people. Know it's
a it's a well, Billy Joel is actually very humorous,
but uh, but Billy Joel, for a time I had
a real problem drinking and driving and was just crashing
almost into every house. Yeah, it was rough, it was rough,
(45:35):
and uh you know, uh and uh I remember somebody
was like, Billy's great, don't give him the keys, you know.
And that's kind of the sit that's that seems like
the same situation with Mahomes's dad. By the way, well lead, well,
come on, it's so flat hunt. Uh my my. Uh.
(45:58):
We used to have an uncle. He died of alcohol
hallism with my sun bowl watch on and buried in it.
Speaker 5 (46:04):
By the time he got buried with your son bowl
wash on, you didn't have any other watch.
Speaker 8 (46:09):
But I had an uncle. It was a bad alcoholic.
His name was Alex Alecho in Greek uncle Aleco, and
he used to watch the parking lot at the restaurant
that my dad owned.
Speaker 10 (46:22):
When I was a mussel.
Speaker 8 (46:24):
Kind of yeah. He was a big, red faced, very lanky,
drunk both face and oh yeah with like with a
sweet black jet black mummy.
Speaker 10 (46:34):
So he didn't have to red ass. He had to
red face.
Speaker 8 (46:36):
I never saw his ass LeVar.
Speaker 2 (46:38):
Oh, okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 8 (46:39):
It would have been weird, son. No, no, So my
dad used to He used to watch a parking lot.
And when I was working at the restaurant, my dad
would get a water, a glass of water, a cup
that we used for water, and pour a cooking brandy
Christian Brothers almost full no ice into a water glass
(46:59):
and he'd say, bring your uncle his medicine and I
would run. I would run across the street with the
brandy twice or three times a night prowling, and then
you know, around ten, you know, and I was like nine, eight, ten,
and then around uh, you know, ten thirty eleven o'clock
(47:21):
at night when things would start winding down, my dad
would say, tell Alex to drive you home, and I'd
be like today, So he would drive us home and
like some gigantic canoe like you know, Pontiac, you know,
from the seventies. And I remember, you know, being a
little kid and seeing stuff on the air about drunk
driving and all these things and all these commercials and
(47:45):
disclaimers and stuff. I remember asking my mom and saying,
you know, I'm pretty sure you know, Uncle Alex is drunk,
you know when he's driving us around. And my mom said, yes,
but he's very careful.
Speaker 7 (48:04):
A different time. Fee.
Speaker 6 (48:06):
Yeah, by the.
Speaker 9 (48:07):
Way, didn't you say I've heard you say on the
other that your mom's a big fan of gin right.
Speaker 8 (48:11):
We made wheat? Well, you know, to be honest, my
mom is kind of a space cadet, and she's she's fine,
she's a lovely lady, and she's from Arcadia. But I
don't know what it was, but I was doing a
it's like some local TV interview when I was playing
at USC about Mother's Day, you know, around spring football.
(48:31):
So they came out to interview some of the guys
on the team about their mom. And I don't know
why I said it, but they're like, you know, does
your mom come to the games? And I said, well,
maybe if you put a bottle of gin on the
fifty yard lunch. And I mean, there was no reason
to say that it was defamatory and not even acting
although she is' she was a gin drinker, you know,
(48:52):
but not excessively. And so then you know, just from
then on, you know, I don't know, just be like
she's drunk and we put my dad on the radio
and I'd be like, you know, dad, is she all right? No?
I cant you know she I can't get her out
of bed. She's drunk again, you know.
Speaker 6 (49:11):
Like so.
Speaker 8 (49:13):
It just kind of became a developing joke. But she's
not really a drunk. She survived breast cancer. She didn't bury.
Speaker 2 (49:23):
We sir Petros Thursday, Friday, next Monday and Tuesday, I
mean tomorrow, tomorrow.
Speaker 8 (49:32):

Well, John Wayne actually was a backup uh lineman at
the USC Yeah, under the name Marion Morrison.

Speaker 2 (51:20):
They the bad hist dudes on on the big screen?

players and football players. You know, you're you're you're the
you're the weakest guy in the football team. But everybody
on the basketball court scared of you. Uh dang, isn't
that true? Yeah, like something about that. I didn't say
you were good at basketball. I said they were scared

Oh no, I was good at basketball.
