Speaker 1 (00:01):
This is the best of two pros and a couple
Joe with Lamar Arings, Rady Win and Jonas Knox on
Box four Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
The NBA Finals are over. That'll do it.

Speaker 3 (00:18):
We will go ahead and conclude these finals in about
four or five games, and then we move on to
the NFL. I don't know if it's just me or
if you guys notice the same thing, but it just
seems like a mismatch, like Boston's that much better than Dallas,
and they played not good last night at all. They
didn't shoot the ball. Well, it's not like Tatum was

(00:41):
lighting it up. He struggled so far the series. And
still they end up winning that game. They end up
covering the spread if you had, you know, Boston minus
six and a half. If not, sucks for you. It
just feels like this series isn't all that close. To
be honest with you, yeah you wanted to.

Speaker 4 (01:00):
Let's just say that they look like the best team
in the NBA. So it kind of just is what
it is.

Speaker 5 (01:05):
Now. They have Porzingis back.

Speaker 4 (01:06):
I know we talked about that before Game one and
after Game one, but they just they look like the
best team and maybe, you know, maybe they're not depending
on how things would have went if you had a
different team from the West, but this is this is
who made it. I think Luca has still kind of
done his party. Tell he's banged up, trying to play
through it. It's just it's shutting down Kyrie. And we

(01:29):
talked about it before the series started. For Dallas to
have any shot whatsoever, both Luca and Kyrie were gonna
have to play lights out every game and carry the
team because they can't afford for them both not to.
And unfortunately it feels like Luca's done his part. Kyrie,
facing one of his old foes or excuse me, those

(01:50):
old teammate teams, has not been able to do that.

Speaker 5 (01:53):
So that's that's kind of where the series is at.

Speaker 4 (01:55):
And there's not much thoughts to like this thing really
going past four games, at least, not how the first
two games have looked.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
And it's hard.

Speaker 6 (02:03):
This was a moment where you say they got to
give their their best effort to show that this can
possibly be a competitive series, and they did. They came
out and they were up and and there was even
a moment in time where they were in striking distance

(02:24):
but was careless with the ball and and it all,
but you know, stealed the deal for the game. It
just it's one of those demoralizing games because you know
Dallas is thinking, we gotta try to steal one.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
We gotta steal one.

Speaker 6 (02:42):
Now, after you lose two on the road, you you
you're going home, So in your mind you're saying, well,
we gotta we gotta defend home if we can. If
we can defend home, get too straight and.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
And see what we can do from there we.

Speaker 6 (03:01):
Head back, we could possibly get I do believe the
ways two to two, one, one, and then if it
goes to a game seven, goes back to Boston.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
I do believe that's the way. Right.

Speaker 6 (03:13):
So their whole idea is, Okay, we didn't steal one
so far on the road, but if we can defend
at home and get this thing pulled even then just maybe,
just maybe we can go on the road and steal one. Now,

(03:33):
that is to me what Dallas is probably most likely thinking.
But listen, Perzingas didn't have a good game yesterday. Statistically
across the board, Jason Tatum hasn't been good offensively in
terms of scoring, but he's been a brilliant facilitator during
the course of the series has been more of a

(03:54):
facilitator than a score. Jylen Brown wasn't crazy on on facilitating,
but did pretty good scoring right. And Drew Holidays stole
the show. He stole the show as the player in
last evening's game. And that's the problem you run into
against the Celtics. You know, Horford didn't play very many minutes.

(04:18):
Perzingis didn't play very many minutes. I think it's like
twenty some minutes. They didn't play a lot. But Drew
Holliday was the one that it was like, this is
his moment, tonight is his game. Tatum was only what
one point shyer or one assists, shy one something, shy
of having a triple double. He almost had a triple

(04:40):
double in the game. But it looked as though Dallas thought, Okay,
let's play some three to two rotating perimeter defense and
let's see if we can slow them down offensively, which
in some ways they did. They did, and that's what
has to be so demoral and so I guess disheartening

(05:03):
and frustrating if you're Dallas, if you're a Dallas fan.
Is they had what seemingly was the defensive scheme to
be able to keep the game competitive, stay in position
to either keep the lead a narrow lead, or to
be able to come back if they did get down
and win the game. It looked like they were executing

(05:26):
it well enough to possibly do it. But you know,
too many mistakes, too many timely, costly mistakes in the game,
and you can't win the big, big game if that's
what happens during the course of the game.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
Dallas is likely the only lost by seven. Like they're
like they're fortunate. If Boston could just hit a few threes.
I think they shot like twenty five percent from three
or something like that. They just hit a few more threes,
we're looking at a typical fifteen to twenty point loss.
These teams have played four times this year, played twice
in the regular season. None of those games were close

(06:03):
like this. You're seeing it play out and watching it
just going where's the outside of And we mentioned you know,
Lucas played well, he's banged.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Up, that's it. Kyrie is not.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
But like we talked about it before the series, like
Derek White and Drew Holliday are going to be difference makers.
Like people want to argue whether or not that was
a foul on PJ. Washington or whatnot like that. That's fine,
get into the weeds on that if we want. But
they don't have Dallas doesn't have those guys. Boston does,
And to me, that's a difference in the series as
far as it goes.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
I mean, they're one they're one player.

Speaker 6 (06:37):
They're one player shy of being a team that can
compete with Boston. But with that being said, there's that.

Speaker 4 (06:45):
Many I mean, honestly, it's not like the roster surrounding
Luca and Kyrie is bad. I kind of thought Derek
Lively would have more of an impact given when he
came back in, but that hasn't been the case unfortunately.

Speaker 5 (06:58):
I just Boston deeper.

Speaker 4 (07:00):
They've got a better they've got a better game plan
to take away Kyrie. They obviously know kind of his
you know, from his background being there, they kind of
know some of his strengths and weaknesses. And it's just
not a matchup that I think is one that Dallas
is going to be able to win many times. I mean,
they might steal one in the series, but this thing
seems destined for a four game sweep.

Speaker 5 (07:20):
It really does. I mean maybe, like I said, maybe
I'll be wrong.

Speaker 6 (07:25):
No, they don't think there's a chance they could trash
still one at home. But I mean, all things given,
if you're looking at the way that game played out
last night, that one has every indicator that this is
hitting for sweet.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Drew Holliday, who LeVar you mentioned, was the star of
the game last night. He spoke afterwards about his contributions
and his role with the team.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
And if you're going to be the team's leading scorer,
leading rebounder and shoot the highest percentage in game to
the finals, why aren't you a superstar as well?

Speaker 7 (07:54):
MEU tility guy. I'll do whatever. I'm here to win.
I feel like they brought me here to win, and
I'll do my best to do that. At the end
of the day, this is their team, and I know
it's probably just as much as my team as theirs.
But I feel, like I've talked about this before, the
pressure that they have on themselves to execute and to
be great is a little bit different than than my pressure.
And again I've always been honest about that, and how

(08:17):
they always handing themselves has been something that's been so honorable.
So it's just it's slightly different. They're superstars and I'm
here to support man.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
When remember when people were upset that man, you know
they got rid of Marcus Smart, What the hell they
going to do one of them?

Speaker 2 (08:32):
It's like I.

Speaker 6 (08:34):
Was one of them.

Speaker 5 (08:35):
Then all of.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
A sudden, Malcolm brog didn knew the writing was on
the wall that they were trying to get rid of
him and trying to trade him. And then Portland's sitting
there with you know, they've got Drew Holliday after the
deal with Damian Lillard and the Celtics, like, yeah, we'll
take that.

Speaker 6 (08:51):
That's fine. Holiday was the same player for the Bucks.
It was the same place.

Speaker 5 (08:56):
Yes, that's fair.

Speaker 6 (08:57):
No same player for the Bucks. Here a humble guy.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Man.

Speaker 4 (09:02):
Can I ask this though, does Jason Tatum feel pressure?
I mean, he hasn't played well in the playoffs. I
would say, with a couple exceptions, I don't know that
he's like he should see it that way, only because
you have such a strong supporting cast, especially with Porzingi's back,
like if anything, like he doesn't have to do it all,

(09:22):
Like he's not in the position of Luca, he's not
in the position of Kyrie. He might be viewed as
a superstar like them in the NBA. He does not
have to carry this team. Though it's been proven time
and time again throughout these playoffs, they can still win
games and he can have a poor shooting night. That's
just the reality of how this team's constructed. And so

(09:44):
whether it's Jalen Brown or Derek White or Porzingis or
even al al Horfeit or Derek you know, it just
it doesn't.

Speaker 5 (09:52):
Matter like he can. Literally, we could talk about there
being pressure on Jason Tatum.

Speaker 4 (09:57):
Okay, if he has an off night, they're still gona
win game. Yeah, that's the recolcy of how this team's built.

Speaker 6 (10:03):
But it's pressure on on Tatum and Brown for them
to win it all. While what you're saying is is
correct and it's accurate, I think the pressure that Drew
Holliday is talking about, as it applies to both of
them is getting over that hump. So regardless of helping
them having if they do have an off game, whatever happens,

(10:25):
if they don't have success, they're they're going to be
the ones to blame if they if they're not having
the type of series where they're up to oh right.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
Now, those two are going to be the ones to blame.

Speaker 6 (10:36):
And then as it as it applies to just personal,
the personal side of it, like they're the megastars, they're
the superstars of this team. What are they doing to contribute?
What is their role and in this team being able
to win. I think that those things play on those
two in particular for the simple fact that it's probably

(10:57):
a legacy play involved in it. But there's also the
idea that I heard somebody say this the other day.
They're like the and I don't know if it's believable
or not. I mean, you take it however you want
to take it. But somebody was comparing them to like
they're the they're the new age version of Scotty and
and and Mike what like. That's basically what they're saying

(11:20):
is is.

Speaker 5 (11:21):
Heard that from you need to stop.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
I'll send y'all. I'll send y'all the video. Why is
it to be Scott? Why is that Scotty and m J.

Speaker 6 (11:34):
Sickness Craft? They're both black. So I think the point
was he was taking aim. He was taking aim at
at Kyrie Irving, leaving those guys before they got to
the point of where they're actually maturing enough to play
at the level that they're playing now. And and to me,

(11:57):
I think that that is a lot of pressure on
them because they have been so close for so long
and have continued to come up short. And now this
could be the the you know, this could be the
breaking of the damn. I mean this, if they can
hold this team together, there's no telling how many times
that they can. Who's going to beat them? Who's going

(12:19):
to beat them? Like, because you said something earlier in
the segment you that I thought was I was thinking
about it as well, like who would have been the
better matchup? I feel like Denver would have been the
better matchup for them, but I don't know that Denver
would have.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Been able to hold Denver.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Denver beat Boston twice in the regular season. Based on that,
I think I think Minnesota would have been a tougher
matchup than Dallas.

Speaker 5 (12:41):
Probably anyone butt Dallas. Yeah, it's like how Dallas get here? Right?

Speaker 7 (12:45):
You know?

Speaker 3 (12:45):
I think I think the Vancouver Grizzlies, the Vancouver Grizzlies
might have gotten the game right now.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
Oh yeah, it just just it's over again.

Speaker 4 (12:53):
It goes back to if you go if the Western
Conference Finals Luca and Kyrie played out of this world. Yes,
that just hasn't been the first two games of this series.
Maybe they'll figure it out. I don't know, though, I'm
not holding my.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
Breath's like it? Yeah, I don't look like it. I mean,
do you think it has an du the No? Was
it Michael Finley because he's black?

Speaker 6 (13:13):
Dag the bichel Michael Finley.

Speaker 5 (13:16):
There was a reporter that asked Joe Missoula about about this, you.

Speaker 6 (13:19):
Know that about being black?

Speaker 5 (13:22):
Yeah? About him and Jason Kidd. Yeah, oh wow, two coaches.
Who did you see Missoula's response?

Speaker 2 (13:29):
What did you say?

Speaker 5 (13:31):
He asked him? He goes, huh, he gues, I wonder
how many of this coach has been Christians?

Speaker 4 (13:35):
Room got dead silent, and then that was it. Like eventually,
I think they moved on to another question. But I
do appreciate a man sharing his faith like that. It
was meant to be a divisive question and it got
thrown right back into like something about spirituality and faith.

Speaker 5 (13:52):
I was like, all right, I like this. I love
this dude.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and
a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn LeVar Arrington and
Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
Hey, we're Covino and Rich Fox Sports Radio every day
five to seven pm Eastern.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
But here's the thing. We never have enough time to
get to everything we want to get to.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
And that's why we have a brand new podcast called
over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun in
our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,
because this guy is over promising things we never have
time for.

Speaker 5 (14:30):
Yeah, you blubber list lame and me.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
Well, you know what it's called over promise. You should
be good at it because you've been over promising women
for years.

Speaker 3 (14:36):
Well, it's a Cavino and Rich after show, and we
want you to be a part of it. We're gonna
be talking sports, of course, but we're also gonna talk
life and relationships. And if Rich and I are arguing
about something or we didn't have enough time, it will
continue on our after show called over Promised. Well, if
you don't get enough Covino and Rich, make sure you
check out over Promised and also Uncensored, by the way,
So maybe we'll go at it even a little harder.

(14:57):
It's gonna be the best after show podcast of all time.
There you go, over promising. Remember you could see it
on YouTube, but definitely join us. Listen Over Promised with
Cadino and Rich on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or
wherever you get your podcasts. How about the Detroit Lions.
All of a sudden, they win a playoff game. They
think they can like, you know, skirt around the rules.

(15:18):
They think they can just you know, like bang each
other up in practice during OTAs the week of May
twenty seventh, and next thing you know they can just
get away with it. Not so fast, says the NFL.
They lost their final OTA practice. They had to forfeit
it because there was too much contact at practice during
that week of May twenty seventh.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
So my question is who's the rat?

Speaker 3 (15:42):
Right who reported this to the PA or the league
to get them.

Speaker 5 (15:46):
In the two question?

Speaker 2 (15:48):
Who's the snake?

Speaker 4 (15:50):
Could this also be what divides their locker room and
ruins the season for the Lions?

Speaker 2 (15:55):
Can between that out? Yeah? Mutiny anarchy?

Speaker 4 (16:03):
This is really common, by the way, as far as
teams I get popped for being too physical OTAs.

Speaker 5 (16:10):
We're else with the Seahoxy twenty thirteen. They basically planned
on it.

Speaker 4 (16:14):
I mean, that's how I'm not gonna say the off
season is meaningless because it's not for younger players, it's
not for new players, guys coming back from injury. But
there's a thought because it's not in pads that they
really can't get the work done they'd like to get done.
And you know, old school guys. I think Dan Campbell
falls into that category. I think he's an old school

(16:37):
guy with maybe in some ways a new school approach.
But you know, do you remember the clip we saw
of him talking to the team about hitting and talking
to you It was during training camp, I believe, before
last season, and he was just asking the guys to
trust them and trust him, and he was basically pleading
with them because, like he doesn't want to put people
at risk, but in order to practice what you're going

(16:59):
to do when you're actual job in a game, you
gotta hit, you gotta bang.

Speaker 5 (17:04):
There's a lot of coaches who feel like that, and
so if.

Speaker 4 (17:06):
They end up being too physical, so be it well
to take away one of ourtas. Like I remember, I
think half the half the time, a lot of the
teams do something silly anyways, they have a movie or they'
you're gonna play like a softball game or something.

Speaker 5 (17:22):
It's like, we look at his team building, but the.

Speaker 4 (17:25):
Truth of the matter is OTAs don't allow you to
truly practice what the sport is. It's why you know
you can get a lot of work done in seven
on seven and people.

Speaker 5 (17:35):
Say always seven on seven leagues, Man, they're awesome. No
they're not.

Speaker 4 (17:39):
It's seven on seven. It's not football like that. For
a quarterback, that's not even football. Getting up to the
line of scrimmage every single play, having the opportunity to
get your head knocked off, but still having to throw
the football. That is football. That that is what that
is about. And so it's it's me. Every time I

(18:01):
see a team do this, my good. That team's gonna
have a good year because they're setting the tone early
on what their team's gonna be, what their identity is
gonna be. And he said it from his opening press conference.
They're gonna bite off your kneecaps. They're gonna be a
physical football team. This probably probably should happen more than
it does, but I'm glad to hear for the Lions.

(18:21):
I think they've got a tone there set not allowing
themselves to look at last year's success and read too.

Speaker 5 (18:28):
Much into that. So I love this news coming out
of Detroit.

Speaker 6 (18:33):
It just continues as you mentioned, it just continues the
theme that Dan Campbell is pushing for that they ain't
affing around, and not only is it is it something
that you definitely I remember being under Greg Williams, and
there's a lot of things I could say I didn't
Greg Williams, but one of the few things that I

(18:53):
can say I did like about him is he had
a we don't f around mentality, and we want that
to be the reputation and we want that to be
what resonates from from our camp. So this is like
what they're doing is they're taking a punishment, but they're
putting everybody in the NFL. They're putting them on notice.

(19:16):
All the other teams, they're putting them on notice. All
the NFC North teams, you're on notice. We're about to
come kick your ass. All the other NFC teams. We're
going to come out of the NFC this year. We're
going to kick your ass. We're not joking around, We're
not playing around. This was not a fluke. The Detroit
the Detroit Lions is a team that you're going to

(19:37):
have to deal with and you're going to have to
deal with the fact that we're doing it our way,
and it's in a way that in a lot of
ways you mentioned seven on seven, the old guard, the
old style of how people play when Dan Campbell was
a player is vastly different. It's evolved from from then

(19:58):
to now as to how things are are done, how
they're seeing, how they're interpreted. And and I'll say this,
the one thing that I love the most about about
Harball and Michigan this past this past college year is
that you take a guy that brought old school rules
and old school principles and a new school style of

(20:20):
how things are done, and he basically proved that the
old way of doing things in some ways, in some
regards may be may be obsolete. But there's one thing
that will never ever ever unless it's it's it's governed
out of the game is the physicality of the sport.

(20:42):
You saw a Michigan team basically bully their way to
a national championship. You've watched the Detroit Lions continue to
grow in the way in the style of bully ball,
bully football.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
I love it.

Speaker 6 (20:59):
I love it, and.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Old is back. Old is back.

Speaker 6 (21:04):
I don't know that.

Speaker 2 (21:04):
It's back, but I do know this. I do know
the people that.

Speaker 5 (21:08):
Yeah, no, way too hard into that.

Speaker 6 (21:12):
Yeah, he's not old enough to even say that.

Speaker 3 (21:14):
Well, listen, it's like when you see all these teams
going to their retro jerseys. Now, all right, bringing back
the throwbacks.

Speaker 6 (21:20):
But that's just for a look. Is that just more
so for a look. That's because if you really were
bringing them back to be old school, then you would
just bring him back.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
Brady told me one time.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
He said it's not Brady told me, it's a way
of life, his words exactly. So that ten dollars, ten
dollars ten that was a passive aggressive, passive aggressive.

Speaker 4 (21:41):
It was first off, well this is some kangaroo Courdior.
We don't have a fine system. No one ever paid up.
I donated one month, Jonas May, I never saw I
never saw the receipt.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
That's all said, right, because it didn't exist.

Speaker 6 (21:54):
I never say anything that gets me fine.

Speaker 5 (21:56):
So that is one hundred percent for you.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
You should be fined more than anybody.

Speaker 5 (22:06):
Jonas though went off Washington what else an old school
tangent for a long long time. That was like you
could tell Jonas is born in the wrong era.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
Oldest back. I'm a throwback, you know, an old soul, you.

Speaker 6 (22:21):
Know in a lot of ways, because that that leather
jacket that you wear is definitely old. It's on trombolta
like like t birds. Like all you got to do
is spray paint tea birds on the bag, going.

Speaker 3 (22:37):
Like I want to one of the outsiders, you know,
with with Pony Boy, Curtis Sea bombs. Let me ask
you this, what is considered too much contact in practice?

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Are they are they lightening people up?

Speaker 6 (22:51):
In great question? It's a great question.

Speaker 3 (22:52):
Is it buwling the ring? Is it Oklahoma drills? What
are we looking at when it comes to too much
contact in practice? It's about to interpretation. I would assume, yeah,
I would assume.

Speaker 5 (23:03):
I love how vague that that was.

Speaker 4 (23:05):
It's my interpretation just saying if like someone's out there,
they're just like, oh that looks too physical.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
Yes, how do you measure it? How do you think?

Speaker 5 (23:14):
I mean?

Speaker 4 (23:14):
There really isn't supposed to be any contacts, so I
would assume there's still elements of one on ones that
go on with linemen. There's still elements of one on
ones that go on with DB's wide receivers and linebackers,
running backs, and even in seven on seventeen periods there'll
be you know, spots where guys are kind of almost
hitting one.

Speaker 5 (23:34):
Another little bit.

Speaker 4 (23:36):
I remember even in a walk through we had back
in twenty thirteen, it was like full speed.

Speaker 5 (23:41):
It was it sorted out as a walk through.

Speaker 4 (23:43):
But there was like a two minute drill, which maybe
this was the genius of Pete Carroll, is he knew it,
Like couldn't like, how can you do a hurry up
offense in two minute?

Speaker 5 (23:53):
How could you do that in slow motion?

Speaker 4 (23:56):
Like it's impossible to do it a walk through fashion
against the dfense. So obviously one side started to speed up,
and then the other side speeds up. Then their side
speeds up, the other side speeds up because it gets competitive.
So like guys are full blown, like it jammed with
a lone of scrimmage. They're like like using hands and
just the whole thing. There's all of a sudden a
pass rush. You're like, what is happening?

Speaker 6 (24:16):
It's period where it's going to get that that you're
going to get that notification.

Speaker 4 (24:22):
Honestly, though sometimes it's not even the NFL and players
have said this for a long time. Who are a
player rep is? They feel like they're in a position
where they can't win because everyone knows who the player
reps are and if you end up losing a practice,
they'll look they're like squarely turn over and look at
that player. They're like, oh, you're runing aside. Huh okay,
I'll see how that play time in CENTIVELIX this year,

(24:44):
you know, like or maybe they cut.

Speaker 5 (24:46):
Them all together.

Speaker 4 (24:47):
I mean, divin Kevin Ma, why have a Pro Bowl
season and he couldn't get a contract the following years
to be in the NFLPA president something like.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
That, Yeah, the Titans, because maybe he was with the
Jets and then is that when he went to the Titans.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
I just remember him being the NFLPA president and there's
it was like the year after.

Speaker 5 (25:12):
Was like up, yep, no one's gonna sign him. Like really,
he was awesome.

Speaker 4 (25:16):
Granted he was he was really high up in age,
like he was you know, on his way to being
you know, I think what forty years old, but he
was an All Pro the year before he was a
Pro Bowl next year, it was like he's still able
to play another year or two and nothing.

Speaker 5 (25:32):
And he was a tennis he was at Tennessee at
the end of his career.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Were you guys a player rep.

Speaker 5 (25:37):
It's the safest way to be.

Speaker 4 (25:40):
Plausible, diability man the other guy.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
I'm still one of you guys. I'm not. I'm not
all the way through.

Speaker 5 (25:48):
I don't even know why I was it. I'm not
a union guy.

Speaker 4 (25:51):
Like sorry for people out there port of unions and
all that, although I will tell you I had to
volunteer at the golf tournament this past weekend, and I
did try to get the boys too.

Speaker 5 (26:00):
I get to trade at the boys and unionised a
little bit for that.

Speaker 6 (26:02):
So I never got into it.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
Did you guys see the story Matt Light put out
about being a part of the NFL p A and
the trip to Hawaii?

Speaker 5 (26:10):
Bill Belichick? Yeah, Alzheimer, so good.

Speaker 3 (26:16):
But you can't even do it justice by repeating the
story on the air. You have to read the email
because it's so much sarcasm from Bellichick.

Speaker 5 (26:24):
We said to let Lights tell the story. Do we
sound on that?

Speaker 6 (26:27):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
I don't I don't believe we do.

Speaker 5 (26:28):
It's long, that's the only thing.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
But it's it's pretty pretty tremendous.

Speaker 5 (26:35):
But I've been a move man.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
Worry, I'm needly cute. He's not biting on it.

Speaker 6 (26:44):
It's fun.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
It's just it's fine, though, trying to do a professional
broadcast here.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
And then he said, and I.

Speaker 6 (26:50):
Started talking bad about reps. He said, he nothing. I
would want to repeat what I just But there was
another one that was he sid He said it was
really long. Yeah, that I had a response for. But
it was quick and it was under my breath so
we didn't have to dump it. It was good.

Speaker 5 (27:13):
I think now that we're drawing attention to it, it makes
it that much better.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
Damn.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Just be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros
and a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Errington,
and Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three am Pacific.

Speaker 6 (27:29):
Hey man, it was a dude on the strand this weekend.
He had a thong on. It was it was it
was a fluorescent green Oh yeah, yeah, it was pretty interesting.
He stood out though. If that's what he was going for?

Speaker 2 (27:44):
Was that like in the show in the bar on
the beach.

Speaker 6 (27:49):
He was on the strand on his bike. What what
baby Millia? But that again?

Speaker 4 (27:57):
Can I give you one of the funniest stories I've
read about an international news today. Yes, So, have you
guys heard about how North Korea has been sending these
trash balloons at South Korea. They're literally balloons that are
carrying trash full of whatever, codo sort of waste and
manure across the border.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
You know what, how petty is that?

Speaker 4 (28:25):
And in retaliation, South Korea is blasting they put at
the border.

Speaker 5 (28:30):
All these huge speakers.

Speaker 4 (28:32):
They're blasting propaganda broadcast back into North.

Speaker 5 (28:36):
Korea right near just like demilitarized zone.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
By the way, you know how many.

Speaker 3 (28:42):
People would do that to their neighbor. They can't stand
it feels like it.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
Feels like it's the most relatable thing in the world,
like someone taking their dog poop and throwing your neighbor's yard,
Like you know, sorry, I just I read this this morning,
and I was like, at some point I have to
mention this because I would love to get a reaction
from you guys.

Speaker 3 (29:03):
By the way, have you guys ever done that throwing
your dog crap in? Somebody else's yard. No, I have
It's great.

Speaker 5 (29:10):
I haven't done it.

Speaker 4 (29:11):
I've taken the dog poop up, picked up and put
it in their trash can of it's out for trash.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
Oh no, take a shovel, pick it up, and just
heave it over your shoulder, just like that.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
Easy.

Speaker 4 (29:25):
Can you imagine though, Like we had issues to the Canada,
They're like, all right, everyone in Minnesota, all right, in
a bag, and we're gonna go ahead and attach that
to a balloon and send it north. You know, we'll
get those Canadians.

Speaker 6 (29:40):
How do you know? How do you know it's gonna
float that way? I mean, couldn't it backfire on you?
Float the opposite?

Speaker 4 (29:49):
They don't leave details into how exactly North Korea like
a little drone, a little.

Speaker 3 (29:55):
Trash balloon, just a bag of baby diaper, blint balloon,
diaper filled nips like that.

Speaker 5 (30:05):
South South Korea.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
Is advising their their citizens not to touch the balloons
and not knowing what could be inside them.

Speaker 5 (30:11):
But so far it's just trash and manure.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
Oh man, that's great.

Speaker 4 (30:17):
But what's the worst part, though, is the worst part
the dude who's gotta like round up the manure to
put into a bag then tied to the balloon. Like, hey, Jim,
what are you doing this week? I've got to pick
up a bunch of crap. Literally, I'm gonna go ahead
and put it in a bag, it's gonna be attached
to a balloon. Then I'm gonna send it to South Korea. Hang, No,
that's your job this week. Huh yeah yeah, that sounds

(30:39):
working out.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
And in order for it to make an impact, you
got to really gather a lot of it too.

Speaker 5 (30:45):
You want to be.

Speaker 2 (30:45):
Stinky, right like he's gather.

Speaker 4 (30:50):
He sells all almost passed out. They're gonna hate this
down there. Yeah, damn, this pal is the pal that's
that's not great?

Speaker 3 (31:02):
You know it is great though, tire rack and we're
broadcasting this show live from the tire rack dot Com studios.
Ti rack dot com will help you get there and
the match selection, fast free shipping, free road has a
protection and over ten thousand recommended installers. Tire rack dot
com the way tire buying should be. Also, I'd like
to point out here so people have an idea on
the rundown. Uh, it still has Petros's name, so I'm

(31:25):
not going to be totally insulted by it. All Right,
there's there's worse, uh worse replacements in the world, but uh,
you know a little bit disrespectful replacements. A little bit
of disrespectful here, you know, you like the replacement.

Speaker 5 (31:37):
Damn are you blaming Lee?

Speaker 4 (31:39):
If that's the case, Well, yeah, what do you call then?

Speaker 3 (31:44):
Well, he's he's putting something together we have I thought
we were to bring them on. Well, he he's putting
together the Belichick Matt Lighte email exchange.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
So we can play that because we're.

Speaker 5 (31:56):
Gonna have edit it down. It's like a three minute clip.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
Yeah, so easy.

Speaker 6 (31:59):
But I was just figuring that petro So would join
us for the last hour, like permanently. That's why I
thought was going to happen after that. Oh really, yeah,
that's what I thought. I thought he would run the show,
and you know, then you would get an opportunity to
just be you know, like you know, just give your
opinions instead of like having to just drive the show.
You know, Q had to drive the show. And Q

(32:20):
was like, you know, he just had to drive the show.
You know, it's not like you you know, it's just
like what do you think? You know, then you gotta
then you gotta take it. Well, we're going to come
back on the other side of the break and we're
going to talk about this. It wasn't like you know
what I mean, Like you got to be hey man,
when your hands are on the wheel, bro, you got

(32:41):
to be a different dude. Many people don't realize how
hard it is to drive a show man like it's
it's it's it's you gotta be prepared in what we
do as contributors, but when you're driving the show, you
gu it's just like you know, you got to be
on your p's and your queues.

Speaker 3 (32:59):
People listening that are driving the actual jobs, Yeah, they
would disagree.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
This is you know what's funny? Yeah, yeah, balls so funny.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
They got they got barf and crap balloons, send it
over to their neighbor's house, like.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
The ones who listen.

Speaker 6 (33:18):
Everybody thinks they can do these types of jobs, and
they they minimize them in comparison to like what would
be physical labor. Until you crack a mic. I've seen
people see that on air go on, like the light
the red light go on, froze straight freeze, like don't
know what to do, can't handle it, or the way

(33:39):
they speak in regular in real life, they're not able
to do it when you know, you know, a whole
bunch of people are listening. So if you're listening to us,
we appreciate you listening and respecting the fact that we
actually do make this thing sound and feel like it's easy,
you know, like like anybody could do it. That's what
you're supposed to do. Like look at Steph Curry like, oh,

(34:01):
I could shoot like that. Let me go grab a ball.
I think I can do it, or I can spend
the ball like Brady Quinn. All right, well let me
go out there and let me try to do it
like you're supposed to make it seem like it's easy
enough that you can do it, but you got to
put in the work to be able to do it,
to make it sound like it sounds. Yeah, that's all.

Speaker 2 (34:18):
Nobody can do this except for ut Yeah.

Speaker 6 (34:21):
I mean not like by the way, either, no one
can drink likely that is, and no one can can
tear down a bathroom likelye either.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
Like yeah, you know he has been gone for Mark.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
Do we have confirmation did he go towards the studio
to edit or did he go towards the bathroom.

Speaker 6 (34:40):
It could have been one or the other, because if Lee.

Speaker 3 (34:41):
Hung a left outside of the studio door, I would
stay away from there for the next hour.

Speaker 4 (34:45):
He's losing weight, boys, all right, this is part of
the process he's starting today.

Speaker 6 (34:50):
I got a cleanse. You know, you gotta get it out.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
He's wearing his, uh.

Speaker 3 (34:54):
His Jimmy Buffett tribute shirt. The h the tied I
one it is. It's something man. He stands out, Eddie.
Your thoughts on the tied I Jimmy Buffett Tribute show
shirt Lee's got on.

Speaker 2 (35:08):
It is bright. You can see it from space.

Speaker 8 (35:11):
I'm trying to think what would it take for me
to put that shirt on?

Speaker 2 (35:16):
Death?

Speaker 8 (35:17):
Maybe death is you know that's possible.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Yeah, they would just drape it over your corpse. They
probably revive you.

Speaker 8 (35:22):
I'm what, what a desecration that would be?

Speaker 6 (35:26):
Good?

Speaker 5 (35:27):
God?

Speaker 8 (35:28):
Uh yeah, a lot of money, a lot of a
lot of booze perhaps and drugs, but just to willingly
put something like that on is just unthinkable.

Speaker 2 (35:38):
He loves he loves Jimmy Buffett.

Speaker 6 (35:40):
But you know what, Lee, I win in no Best
dress awards. Man, That's part of why he's the big Lebowski.
You know, he's just not going to win any type of.

Speaker 4 (35:52):
Damn geezan bang heart right.

Speaker 8 (35:55):
Hold, look at Mark. Marks seemed to enjoy Mark seemed
to enjoy that comment.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
Hard right by Garcia.

Speaker 6 (36:05):
All I'll say is when you smell what he'd be cooking, boy,
you gotta question some of the things that he's got
going on in his life.

Speaker 3 (36:15):
Those days are probably behind him, though, Like if he's
if this is serious and he's getting back into shape.
For him, I'm proud of him. Unless it's broccoli. If
he starts, you know, doing one of those broccoli dip diets,
then dips.

Speaker 5 (36:29):
Is that a diet.

Speaker 3 (36:32):
I try to stay away from broccoli. Not a great
combination for me. You know, it just doesn't seem to uh,
it doesn't seem to go over awhile. But nonetheless, uh,
we will not be crapping in a bag and saying.

Speaker 6 (36:45):
It over put broccoli to put you on slipping slide
mode if you dig what I mean, slipping.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
Slid one of those slipping slide dips, you know what.

Speaker 6 (36:56):
I had that as an er this weekend too, By
the way I are, I had one of those mistaken,
mistaken little you know dips for another dip and had
to run to the restroom before the.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
Dip got way too dip ish.

Speaker 6 (37:09):
What do you mean before I was dropping a bag
of crap in from from South Korea? What do you
mean crea to South Korea? A which other side it was?
I was just sitting there, you know, watching watching Netflix,
having a good time, eating some some white uh white
cheddar popcorn and it's always better. Well I don't ever

(37:32):
heard of black popcorn. By the way, I.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
Wasn't saying that. I'm like, the white cheddar is always better.

Speaker 6 (37:37):
You you were trying to make it racial. You definitely were.

Speaker 2 (37:41):
I don't know why you have to steer us down
this road.

Speaker 6 (37:43):
Why do white white cheddar uh popcorn have so many kernels?

Speaker 5 (37:47):
Though?

Speaker 6 (37:47):
Why is it like, why is it so difficult?

Speaker 2 (37:49):
Why you gotta be so selective? I don't know.

Speaker 6 (37:53):
So what happened wrong about it?

Speaker 5 (37:54):
Anyway?

Speaker 6 (37:55):
I was joking, Yeah, bro, I was like sitting on
the little bean bag, was come, having a good time,
had my little my.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
New my new fusion drink.

Speaker 6 (38:05):
You know that I created with the grapefruit and the
lemon and the water and the tequila was chilling. And
you know, mister Stix was hanging around. By the way,
mister Stix was a hit on the strand. Let me
tell you something. I best not have ever been single,
me and mister Stix, like mister Stick single and and

(38:25):
mister Sticks the dog. I mean, that was amazing. I've
never got so much attention ever in my life, not
even as a football player. Never. That dog was a hit.
By the way. Back to my story, I'm sitting there,
he's sitting there, he's looking at me, I'm looking at him.
We're watching Netflix, and I just had one little little

(38:47):
casual deals like, you know, a little casual dip like,
and then it wasn't casual anymore. I had to jump
up and run for the.

Speaker 3 (38:55):
Oh you thought it was I just thought it was
a casual and flip it.

Speaker 6 (39:00):
Yeah, man, it was fire.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
Do you have to you have to change your browsers.

Speaker 6 (39:06):
I wasn't showered after.

Speaker 2 (39:07):
Oh no, it wasn't. It wasn't that I had to change.

Speaker 6 (39:11):
It wasn't that I had to change.

Speaker 3 (39:13):
Why just shower then, because it just felt so dirty after.

Speaker 6 (39:17):
It was too close. It was way too close. It
was like one of those It was one of those
like Everybody's happy, like the song, like the candy man
can and all that stuff, and then it was like
it was like one.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
It wasn't even like valent. It wasn't even a valient one.

Speaker 6 (39:32):
That's why I was so it was so shocking and startling,
and I was like whoa. And then I had to
jump up and I had to run and I made it.
But I had to shower after because I just you know,
some people say they shower after they go every single time.
I think you're a weirdo. If you shower every single
time you go. Sound to me, you know you shower

(39:55):
every single time. No, but I don't. I don't begrudge
someone for showering.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
You're weird. You're a weirdo.

Speaker 6 (40:01):
If you shower after every single time, you're a weirdo.

Speaker 2 (40:05):
I think.

Speaker 5 (40:06):
I think good for those people.

Speaker 3 (40:09):
We're talking like three showers a day. For some people,
then it's a little weird.

Speaker 6 (40:13):
Yeah, but what if you go more than that.

Speaker 5 (40:14):
I'd try to take like three showers of day.

Speaker 4 (40:16):
I take thee on a wake up, take them before bed,
probably one of between after I work out.

Speaker 5 (40:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
Also tried to say that jumping in the swimming pool
years ago was the same as like a shower and.

Speaker 5 (40:26):
I never said that.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
Yes you did, you.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
Said, you said, you said, does this count as a shower?
Because my wife, My wife was arguing.

Speaker 2 (40:32):
With me about it.

Speaker 4 (40:32):
This is not any conversation you and I had. The
only conversation we had had at.

Speaker 5 (40:38):
One point was we had to boil water. Notice.

Speaker 4 (40:41):
Okay, so we had talked about how could you substitute
a shower and jump in the pool and you soap
and would that work? You give them the circumstance of
not being able to use the water at that time
because there was a boil water notice.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
No, what was the answer.

Speaker 5 (40:57):
I don't remember what we came to.

Speaker 6 (40:59):
You're not gonna use soap in a pool?

Speaker 2 (41:02):
Oh I didn't.

Speaker 4 (41:04):
I felt like the guy from Happy Gilmour who was like,
in the pond.

Speaker 6 (41:08):
That's something you should have went to a pond, that's
something biking you just did because it don't have chemicals
in it.

Speaker 5 (41:16):
Well it's a saltwater pool.

Speaker 6 (41:18):
Oh oh, well that changes. That's a little different.

Speaker 5 (41:22):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 6 (41:24):
I mean, you're only going to dry your skin out,
but I mean you're going to jack your pool up
with the soap. But you know, I mean, yeah, you'd
be clean though, yeah, you'd be fine. That's relatable. Salt water.
I got a salt water pool too, by the way,
I do.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
Sounds like you had it in your shorts this weekend.

Speaker 6 (41:42):
It wasn't a salt water pool in my shorts. It
was a dairy dairy queen. Uh swirl. It was a
swirl that was that was in motion.

Speaker 5 (41:58):
Look at you going?

Speaker 2 (41:59):
Where are you going?

Speaker 3 (42:00):
Right?

Speaker 6 (42:01):
He was right with me. He ran right with me.
We was running together. That's my guy. He was running
right with me. We ran right in there together.

Speaker 2 (42:07):
I looked at him. He looked at me, like you okay.

Speaker 6 (42:09):
I was like, I'm good, oh man with me to
the shower and everything.

Speaker 3 (42:14):
Well, listen, it is two by the way, really.

Speaker 6 (42:19):
Hey bro, we people watch for about three hours, me
and him. I'm gonna send you a picture of me
and him people watching.

Speaker 2 (42:27):
I'm gonna be looking out for something now coming up
in the fall. Is that right?

Speaker 6 (42:34):
What would that be?

Speaker 2 (42:35):
I don't know. Check your text
