Speaker 2 (00:27):
Give this you're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
Man, this song gets worse every day.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
That may be the case, but it sure doesn't sound
like it's uh leady o'clock.

Speaker 4 (00:41):
On the construction site.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
So oh wow, you got an in law? Got my
in law's iPad? Well listen, it's you know, it's two
Pros and a Cup of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio.
Lee did send us an email saying, if you've got
song requests, send them over. I forgot to send mine yesterday,
but I've already got one lined up. I'm ready to go.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
I sent mine, although I didn't put with this Lee.
If you're listening, probably want to go with the instrumental
version I met.

Speaker 4 (01:09):
Maybe you can go with it.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Maybe not.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
I'm just saying it's it's got a good beat though,
it's got a good beat to this.

Speaker 5 (01:14):
I will rewrite that email that I had already sent out,
but yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
You know, you know you can.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
You can leave it how it is. You can leave
it how it is, Carr. Either way, I think it's
it's a catchy beat though. That's all I was going
for this time.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Ar, you got yours ligned up, ready to go.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
I will deliver, for certain I will deliver.

Speaker 3 (01:32):
I just hope Jonas is and something cheesy again. LeVar
has been consistently the best pick. He brings bangers, he
brings good beats, like Cherry Red that was real popular
for a while. Like what was the what was the
what was the other?

Speaker 4 (01:50):
What was the was the one after? H I can't
I can't think of what it was.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
I just thought about it yesterday to.

Speaker 6 (01:58):
Ye.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Juicy Fruit was the next one that was great. But
the one after Juicy Fruit just needs to be played
on like a like a specific stereo.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
System, like sound system, because.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
You can't appreciate the beat of it, you know what
I'm talking about? What was the second third song?

Speaker 2 (02:15):
I don't remember, Oh I do not remember.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
I'm gonna sound like such a dork.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
What's the astronaut in the water? That's right, that's right.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
See that was a good one too. That was a
good one too. That actually might have been after Cherry Red.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
By the way, I just think about like there's a
trucker somewhere who pulled over to get gas one morning
and he opens up his car door and it's just
playing Cherry Red like kind of an interesting look. But listen, well,
I'm gonna have a banger like might will be the
best the best next that I can guarantee you that.
Can you please not do what we all think you're

(02:49):
going to do, which is what all right, and just
mess it up?

Speaker 4 (02:52):
Can you just please be cool? Please?

Speaker 3 (02:54):
This one times identified In fact, I narrowed a to
five and then I think I've I've picked the winner,
so and I'll give you a hand.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Just please be cool, man, please, like just for once,
like making a song that we're like, we don't mind hearing.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
That coming into the segment. Get people fired up and
fired up for the show. Now weet fired up. We
are NFL season.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
I might go Zach Bryan this time though, just so y'all.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
Know Zach Bryan.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Yeah, something in the orange, something in the orange, or
I remember, no, I remember. Everything is my new favorite
baza honestly, and the orange is dope. But listen to
I remember everything that right there, that's my dips.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
So are you telling us what song you're making right now?

Speaker 2 (03:47):
I might go with that, but I don't know. Okay,
I don't know. It could happen that way, it could
happen something different. It's just how I'm feeling in that
moment of time when I send the the music over
to Sheyenne.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Has changed you?

Speaker 2 (04:04):
This didn't? I was that all all along. Pittsburgh is
country man, We're country, We're hood country, country hood. It's
like kind of a mixture. Yeah, it's a fusion.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Yeah, I'll be honest with you. When I think of
Russell Wilson, that's not what I think of.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
Well, y'all saw what I sent you all over the
other day, right, it was pretty good? Pretty good? Okay,
stealer Nation. Let's well.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
So we're making our season picks today, and two of
the three of us I think have I think Brady,
You've got Pittsburgh last in the AFC North.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Correct.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
So if that's the case, sixteen. Are they making a
just Rough start every single game for the Steelers this year?
Because I think no, I think he does. Okay, I
think it does. How do you think that goes far?

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Oh man? You know, I think at some point Justin
Fields will get in as a starter. And whether that's
due to Russ's inability to win or if it's Russ's
inability to play, I think one of the two will happen.
Maybe both. One doesn't have to be true and the

(05:15):
other doesn't have to be false for that to happen. Right,
So there you go.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Well, we've been making our picks for the season. We
did the NFC in hour one, we did the AFC
in hour two.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (05:28):
Now it's time to rattle off our schedule super Bowl
picks too. To do it again just for the new audience,
should we recap our playoff teams and then make our
big pick?

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Did you write them down? Lee? Because on God, I
look at it and I didn't write that down though,
So I can't tell you exactly who I picked and
how I picked them. If y'all were to ask me
to do it again, I mean I'm ready to go.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
I can give you a recap if you want to
know how we got.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
A little bit of.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
Time there, I got you far Okay, thank you?

Speaker 2 (06:00):
All right, go you go ahead. Q. You've got Q.
You're the leadoff, Like get this thing. NFC playoffs.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
We've got phillyas the number one overall seed, actually the
number one overall seed in the playoffs fourteen and three
regular season, they'll get the buye.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
San Francisco is the two seed.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
They're gonna beat the seven seed Dallas Cowboys, the Detroit Lions,
the number three seed will beat the Tampa Bay Bucks
the number six seed, and the number four seed Atlanta
Falcons will fall to the number five Los Angeles Rams.
All those teams all on the divisional round, and it's
one and two. Philadelphia and San Francisco advance. They move
on to the Championship rown. And I've got the Philadelphia

(06:38):
Eagles making the return to the Super Bowl once again,
which sets up potentially for another Super Bowl rematch versus
the Kansas City Chiefs. But as we go over to
the AFC side, it's Casey number one overall with that
thirteen to four record. Cleveland defeats Buffalo in the wildcard
round to advance. The Jets defeat Baltimore in the wildcard round,

(06:59):
and then I've got Houston defeating the Cincinnati Bengals to advance,
and it's chalky again. In the division round, Kansas City
and Cleveland both advance, beating Houston and the Jets respectively.

Speaker 3 (07:10):
And in the Championship round, the.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Kansas City Chiefs are defeated by the Cleveland Browns, and
we've got a super Bowl matchup for the Ages. Two
of the most passionate fan bases. One where they had
to crack open a bunch of fridges for free beer
in Cleveland when they finally were able to break that
windless streak, and the other one the lights to loop
up their light poles just so the fans can't go

(07:34):
berserk after slapping police horses squaring off in New Orleans.
Super Bowl, whatever the hell it is at this point
in time. Cleveland taking on Philadelphia.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
For the Super Bowl for twenty zero. Yeah, that's impressive,
that's what. It'll be a fun game to be at,
a fun week. Hell yeah, really you imagine all the
social media that will come from that?

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Really?

Speaker 3 (07:57):
What what especially consider? Jameis Winston will be the start
for Cleveland Italian So.

Speaker 4 (08:03):
Wow, not my woods, but joinas knocks.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
But there we are.

Speaker 7 (08:07):
Hmm.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
I got Dallas and Detroit and some way, somehow in
the NFC Championship round. Is that doable? That's doable, okay?
And I think Detroit beats them and goes to the
super Bowl. And then on the AFC side, I have
Kansas City and whoever you want to say they knockoff,
I don't care. We could say the Bengals, or we

(08:30):
could say the Bills. One of them, maybe even the Ravens.
One of those three. They're going home. Casey's going back,
and they get their three pte. That's what I think.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
So you got KC three p yes, all right.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
I'm not betting against them anymore. So.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
In the NFC, my playoff teams are the Eagles to
in the East, the Lions to win the North, the
Falcons to win the South, and I've got the Rams
winning the NFC West. My wild card teams are the Cowboys, Bears,
and the forty nine ers. And coming out of the NFC,
how about them Cowboys. I got the Dallas Cowboys as
a wild card team making it all the way too.

(09:08):
I'm with you, whatever the hell super Bowl this is
coming up here in New Orleans. So I've got Dallas
out of the NFC and over to the AFC. My
division winners are the Jets out of the East, the
Bengals out of the North, the Jaguars out of the South,
and the Chargers out of the West. My wildcard teams
are the Dolphins, Texans, and Chiefs out of the AFC.
I've got the Cincinnati Bengals representing getting back to a

(09:32):
Super Bowl in New Orleans, and in that Super Bowl,
the Dallas Cowboys get it done. The Dallas Cowboys will
be your Super Bowl champions knocking off the Cincinnati Bengals
in New Orleans coming up in February.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
Don't know who else gets it done?

Speaker 4 (09:47):

Speaker 3 (10:31):
Hell yeah, there you go. By the way, LaVar, what
was your super Bowl pick? Was Casey over who? Again?

Speaker 2 (10:37):
I'm Detroit? All right?

Speaker 3 (10:38):
So you got Casey over Detroit because I'm putting.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
That I think Detroit beats and I got Detroit beating.
Did I have Detroit winning at Detroit winning it? Hey?
You had Kansas City with the three pet I thought
I had Kansasy with the three piece. And if I
did say Detroit where to win, if some way, somehow
that came out of my mouth, I did not mean that.
I believe Kansas City will get back to the super Bowl,
and I believe they will beat Detroit in the super Bowl, which,

(11:03):
by the way, Detroit will beat Dallas to get I never.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
Even said who I had winning?

Speaker 2 (11:07):
By the way, who you got winning? Do you hold
that under the cat?

Speaker 4 (11:11):
Cleveland?

Speaker 2 (11:12):
Cleveland?

Speaker 3 (11:13):
All right?

Speaker 4 (11:18):
For the first time?

Speaker 2 (11:19):
What state was that again? What's that? A state? Ohio?
What city? What city? What city? There? We go? There
we go? I bet? How did I miss that up?

Speaker 3 (11:28):
All right? So I've I've put together some numbers here
not a state. All right, So on DraftKings you can
actually bet the exact result of the game. So LeVar,
you've got Casey beating Detroit. Yeah all right, so that
pays out forty to one. All right, Hell, I was
actually in Great Auscin. Say it's probably gonna happen. I

(11:51):
know there really is. I've got Dallas Cowboys beating the
Cincinnati Bengals one sixty to one. That is, if the
Cleveland Browns beat the Philadelphia Eagles, as Brady Quinn has
predicted here on this show, three hundred and fifty to one.

Speaker 4 (12:08):
Dang, there you go, fellas.

Speaker 3 (12:09):
So that's your a little money right there.

Speaker 4 (12:12):
Snap in the base.

Speaker 3 (12:14):
So there's your your look ahead to the NFL season.
Did you have any by the way, which team were
you close to making a bold pick on but you
put it back in the hole?

Speaker 2 (12:24):
Sta?

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Because I had two Arizona, I would say I made
the bold picks. I've got Cleveland winning the first one.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
Out, so Cleveland was the one I was thinking about
and not put them back in the.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Holdster Arizona and Denver, And I don't know why, like,
but then I was really close to making Denver the
wildcard team and then I saw the schedule and it is.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
Your hard hat lunch pale conic gets true and the
type of guy that appreciates hard work like your underdog story,
someone that you know never never wants to be counted out.
You know what dough The odds be great or small,
which s knocks will win overall?

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Great?

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Point that is you or mentality, that's how you take
on things. Jonas, and I can see why you would
look at two teams that most people even are friends
at DraftKings and everyone out West or any other book
out there probably hasn't finishing last in their division based
on the odds. You, my friend, though, would somehow find
a way to try to pump them up into a
position that in reality they'll.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
Never be able.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
Let me see, actually, let me see if I can
find the odds on what an Arizona at Denver Super
Bowl would be like? What would that look like?

Speaker 2 (13:29):
You think? So? All right?

Speaker 3 (13:31):
Let me see what we like? Five hundred? You think,
all right, talk amongst yourselves. Let me work on this
real quick. They can't put together well, no, but you
got to go down the entire list like it's.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
So they like literally didn't even put it together as
a combination because it was so improbable, Like.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
It's really like, way far down the list, keep scrolling. Oh,
here we go five thousand to one.

Speaker 4 (13:55):
No way, yeah, five thousand to one.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
Yeah, dang. Yeah, so that's very very very long os.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
Yeah, but somehow, some way, Jonas Knox, Jonas Knox almost
predicted it.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
So no, I just saw maybe playoff.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
Time that is clearly off of Jonas Knox's algorithm. It
knows if Jonas Knox makes a pick to make it
that type of odd. No.

Speaker 3 (14:26):
I mean, I'm just looking at it going all right,
you know me Knox Also, that's a Knox lock. Also,
I'm with you. Tennessee might be sneaky as well too, Yeah,
because they.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Arop out of the football Will Levis, I think, is
it for a big year. That's a team that I
wouldn't be shocked if they don't go nine and eight,
Like I know, I had them at six and eleven and.

Speaker 4 (14:47):
I was I was torn.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
It was one of those things where I kind of
went back and forth on a few, you know, a
few teams in the record here and there. That was
one that I'm like, I could see them actually having
a winning record. Surprising everyone.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
Which is the worst team in the league. Carolina, I
think so in New England's right there, So I got
New England.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
You got New England.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
Rover worse than Carolina.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Carolina. Yeah, I was shocked that I took New York
over Washington. That did shock me myself. It shocked.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
Well, you're retired. You retired a giant, makes sense, Yeah, retire.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Your experience in Washington and and the way you talk
about your time with the Giants start contrast.

Speaker 4 (15:31):
I'll just put it that way.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
Yes, to the teams, not the fan base, right, yeah,
experience with the team. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's true.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
Well, look there it is.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
But there's different times now there, So maybe I'll be
proven horribly wrong, and I would love to different.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
Some guy, just some guy just went.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
To see did we just talk about that.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
That's like the stuff that you see on like these
like political you know, deals, like on social media where
someone's like, oh my gosh, did you see what director
of whatever part of the government said this.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
They didn't say his name, right, no, he says.

Speaker 4 (16:11):
He's been suspended.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Yeah, yeah, I saw.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
But I just feel like you see these all the time.
You're like, how do these people keep falling for it,
like how.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
Does this happen? Yeah, I don't know, man, is they're dumb? Well,
there's not why he was hating on Jerry Man, I
mean hating on Jerry Jones and his little little.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
Right, although one of the things that he did say
that was that Jerry Jones is really the guy calling
the shots in the league. That would not be a surprise.

Speaker 4 (16:38):
I do appreciate the fact that it's like it was.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
It was one of those examples of when that pipe broke,
We're like, oh, it has to be sewage water, right,
it has to be like.

Speaker 4 (16:46):
What else could that?

Speaker 2 (16:47):
What else would it be?

Speaker 1 (16:48):
And of course he's like, no, yeah, I've got to
cover up and tell her what it's not sewage water?

Speaker 3 (16:52):
Yeah, I know, we all knew, pal, We all knew.

Speaker 4 (16:54):
Like everyone of the outside is looking.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
At it, going, that's not frush drinking water, that's not
spring water. It's not being pumped in from some valley somewhere.
Somebody spilled a sparkling's jug that just came from the
troth in the in the restroom.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
Why would you have a tube, a poo tube running there, Like,
why would that be the place.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
We can get into the bad architectural design of what
is it FedEx Field, whatever the hell they're calling Yeah,
well no Jonas calls it RFK. Sorry, whatever you want
to call it. We can get it into the bad
architectural design. But as I've said to you before, anyone
who's been there knows you are facing death, imminent death
in the face just parking and trying to walk across

(17:41):
that main road, highway, whatever the hell that is to
get into the stadium. I mean, you will get laced
by a car if you're not paying attention. It's one
of the reasons why I would never take my kids
to a game there, because my four year old she
tends to dilly dally. You know, she's one of those
ones that like she's holding your hand and she kind
of drops a little bit behind and she gets distracted
by a butterfly. Next thing you know, she's getting hit

(18:03):
by a nineteen seventy eight Caprice that's flying around the
corner there right.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
Where the state playing Hell to the Redskins.

Speaker 4 (18:11):
Yeah, maybe dang or any or Hell's bells for that matter.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
I mean, does war or playing some go go music
shouts out some people in DC go go ye Yeah,
maybe I'll do a go Go song for my intro.

start of the NFL season. How we're feeling.

Speaker 6 (19:43):
I'm good, I'm good. How you guys doing. I mean,
it's really been kind of going on for like six
seven weeks for me. So everybody asks me, like this week, like, oh,
our things about to get busy for you. It's like, yeah,
I've already been there for about two months five.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
So.

Speaker 4 (19:59):
We hear you.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
Trust me. Jonas has been trying to getus fired up.
We're like, dude, football seasons already started. I got to
ask Albert, is that a wild turkey in the background?

Speaker 2 (20:06):
What was that noise?

Speaker 6 (20:08):
Wild turkey? Well, you might have hurt my dog a
second ago, but like guy was pulling out of the driveway,
I thought I thought I was still needed for that.

Speaker 4 (20:16):
Maybe you got hurt that No, you probably need to
get your dog checked out. If it's barking like you got,
you got some problems.

Speaker 6 (20:24):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know. We do have turkey
here though, we do have turkey all over the place,
actually in my cawn't believe it or not.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
Who will be the turkey in tonight? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (20:36):
There you go of our There you go the big market,
big market, uh transition there. I I think what we're
gonna see you tonight is you know, chiefs offense that
isn't quite isn't quite where it's going to be in
October and November. And what I mean by that is
a lot of their plans for this year had been

(20:57):
to reintroduce the deep ball and to their game. And
one of the things that you know, I think was
a little bit frustrating to Mahomes over the last couple
of years was how they weren't able to push the
ball down and field quite as much. Part of that
was by design, you know, after they lose Tyree kill
a lot of teams that played back on them and
played a lot too high coverages on them. So you know,

(21:19):
like they had kind of counteracted that by going with
bigger run after the catch type receivers. Well you know
this year, the whole plan was to reintroduce the deep
ball into their offense and to push the ball downfield
and try to use that to open up things underneath
for Roshie Rice and Travis Kelcey. Unfortunately, Hollywood Brown won't

(21:41):
play tonight and he was a big part of it,
and Xavier Worthy's a rookie. So I think like the
real big picture of what the Chiefs offense is going
to be, we won't see that tonight, you know. I
think you're probably going to see that a month two
months from now, and you know, maybe that creates some
opportunity for the Ravens. What we're looking at with the Ravens,

(22:01):
which is interesting, is where and I know a lot
of people haven't paid attention to as part of it,
but it's a really important piece of tonight's matchup. Sixty
percent of their offensive line from the ANFC Championship game
is gone. They're breaking in three news starting offensive linemen,
and you know, in all three cases they're young players

(22:22):
who haven't really played regularly yet. You know, so what
does that look like? So I'd say, you know, how
the Chiefs make it work in the passing game, and
then what the Ravens are doing on the offensive line
would be two of the things that you probably want
to watch closely tonight.

Speaker 3 (22:36):
AB is there. We're making our super Bowl picks and
our season predictions here and I don't know if you're
ready to fire off your super Bowl pick, but is
there maybe a surprise that you look at this season
that for some reason, something you saw on your training
camp tour or just a gut feeling that you have
a feeling this team is going to be way better
than a lot of people are expecting.

Speaker 6 (22:57):
Yeah, well, my super Bowl picks already up on the
website that so it's forty nine Ers over Bengals. So
no surprises there, you know. I get asked that a
lot like and I just feel like the NFL, and
I've said this to you guys before, I think, but like,
I feel like the NFL has covered so thoroughly now
that it's really hard to come up with a team
that's really surprise team because we just we go over
so many things over the course of the offseason. So,

(23:21):
you know, I think the one team that I think
could be a little bit of a curve ball that
you know, do they make the playoffs? Maybe maybe not
would be would be Arizona. I really like what they've
done as far as just stocking the player the roster
with young players, and they've had a really big draft
class last year just numbers wise, and a really big

(23:42):
draft class this year. And they've got, Yeah, they've got
like the franchise type players like your Paris Johnson, You're
You're Marvin Harrison, but you're also bringing in guys that
are like sort of these second level players. I think
Max Melton's got a chance to be a really good
corner for them. But Michael Wilson, a lot of those
guys came from Minnis. I've heard him compare to Adam Feeling,
and he had a really good rookie year last year.

(24:04):
So I like the young days of talent. I also
think Kyler Murray's more engaged than he's ever been before
in his career, and really started last year coming off
the ACL. I think he heard a lot of the
criticism on the video game stuff and all of that.
He had to go on a new offense really for
the first time since high school, and you know, having
to do that, the challenge of it and coming back

(24:25):
off the ACL and not having a a springer. A
summer in twenty three really forced him to dive back
into the mental part of the game, and so I'm
really interested to see what that looks like in the
year two, because he played pretty well at the end
of last year. I think he saw some of the
things that Jonathan Gannon and envision coming together at the
end of the year. And I do think that there's
like a nice base of young talent there's going to

(24:47):
give them a chance.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
Yeah, it's almost like I thought, maybe he lost his
Internet for the entirety of the season, and so maybe
them take it away from him.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
Wah wah.

Speaker 4 (24:58):
Let's go back to your Super Bowl pick.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
You've got the Cincinnati Bengals, albeit losing to the San
Francisco for nine ers, but they're winning the AFC.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
In your mind.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
Jamar Chase still doesn't have a deal though, and so
this is something that I guess what they get a
deal done or he plays to the season with that one,
he's just going to.

Speaker 3 (25:13):
Be a happy guy running around out there.

Speaker 4 (25:16):
Trying to go out.

Speaker 6 (25:18):
I think they're going to get a deal done now.
I mean, I think it's really instructive to look at
how Jamar Chase has handled these things in the past.
I mean, he did opt out. He was one of
the guys who opted out of his last year, you know,
at LSU, so he sat out of his whole year.
So there's a guy who's obviously seen the game from
a business standpoint for a long time, going back to

(25:39):
when he was in college. So, like I I'm not
surprised that he's taking this sort of approach to his
first big contract negotiation as a pro. You know, I
actually think Bradie that they will get something done. And
I think they will get something done because I think
the Chaney Lamb thing really simplified this right like where

(26:02):
I think before, you know, before Jeffson Jefferson got a
deal done, there was no way that the Bengals were
getting it done with a deal done with Chase just
wasn't happening. Chase and Jefferson weren't come communication the whole time.
Chase is always going to wait for his buddy to
do his deal first, so he could use that as
a leverage point. Then Jefferson's deal is so far passed

(26:24):
where everybody else was at the receiver position that the
Bengals could point out and say, well, Jefferson had one
year left, You have two years left. That deal's an outlier.
So I think really what you needed was another data
point here to kind of like clear that up, and
I think Lamb gave you that data point. Now that's
good news and bad news for the Bengals. The bad

(26:45):
news is it basically confirmed the Chase is right, that
the market is the market right now, and that where
Jefferson is the new market for the best receivers in football.
The good news is, I do think it makes it
easier now for the Bengals to do a deal. And
it makes it so the Bengals can just say, look,
there's a little more expensive than we thought it was
going to be, but it'd be even more expensive if.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
We wait another year.

Speaker 6 (27:07):
The markets the market, let's get a deal done. And
I do think that they'll find a way to get
a deal done before Sunday.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Before Sunday, I think, so yeah, okay, all right, that
was going to be my next question.

Speaker 3 (27:19):
Go ahead, John Well, I was just gonna ask a bee.
I mean, do you think and total hypothetical here? All right,
So I don't want to make this seem like I'm
trying to steer you in a direction you don't want
to go if it's too dangerous or too reckless here,
But do you feel like that maybe Ohio State might
be thirty eight points better than Western Michigan this weekend?

Speaker 6 (27:37):
Wasn't what was it was the Wisconsin as they played, right,
they put up a pretty good.

Speaker 3 (27:40):
Fight, I think, right, I believe so, Yeah, I think that.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
Was was conan.

Speaker 11 (27:45):
I think that that thing was close into the third quarter.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
Yeah, so.

Speaker 6 (27:50):
Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 11 (27:51):
I think so. I think I think it'll be I
think it could.

Speaker 6 (27:54):
Be one of those where ye know, my text strengths
are on my.

Speaker 11 (27:58):
Text strengths are on fire, and the quarter of the
game and we're firing everybody and then by the end
of the game it's like a six touchdown win.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
So how'd that text how'd that text chain handle week one?
That I know there's a lot of frustrated Buckeye.

Speaker 11 (28:11):
Brady Brady Brady was not great in the first quarter.
I don't think. I don't think.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
I don't think.

Speaker 11 (28:16):
I don't think i'd want like the contents of those
text rings. There might there might. There might have been
a few people fired, There might have been a few
guys bench. Yeah, it was a tough scene on those
text strings. Uh they're around uh three thirty Eastern on Saturday.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
Only Ryan Day could drum a team about like forty
something and then still somehow people calling for him to
be fired.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
It's unbelievable.

Speaker 11 (28:40):
You are out there, you know that environment. Your guys
look pretty good though.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Huh they did, They did, They should, they should go
twelve and oh you know, especially with a win like
that and the starting point for the offensive line being
so young and the way they played so that that's
that's how it sets up for them and say, hey.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
Coach brings you in like that, I mean, you ain't
got no choice.

Speaker 1 (28:58):
Oh yeah, baby, Yeah, they had all the twelfth Man
right there too.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
He would have put on some pads and go play on.

Speaker 2 (29:05):
Yeah. I like that.

Speaker 6 (29:06):
Guy.

Speaker 11 (29:07):
Guys, guy, guys. I'm just I'm just glad Brady's on
with us today after after what he had to go
through on Saturday. I thought, I thought, I thought that
might be it for you.

Speaker 4 (29:16):
Yeah, me and Coach Meyer.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
I really felt like they kept reassuring us that that
set is grounded and so we're good. Like if if
lightning strikes, there's a seventy percent chance we will not
get hit by it, at least from what I understand,
something like that. What they haven't figured out that was
the wind as some of those pop up tens or
not weighted down. I will most likely get him paled

(29:38):
by a pop up tent at some point.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
If we keep going, some of.

Speaker 11 (29:42):
Them go like some of them go flying by like
in Twister or whatever.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
Yeah, yeah, wow, wow, Ab, we appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (29:50):
All lines flew about air like you like, uh yeah
they did, Thanks Aby, take that, Ab. We're coming for
you this year, sir. Uh this might this might be
the first time that I get to you when we
play Ohio State, might be the first that I don't know,
you got to do that?

Speaker 11 (30:12):
You suck those The implications are the same because whoever wins,
like the loser's still gonna have a shot to get
in the playoffs. It's not like the zero some games then,
you know.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
So yeah, well states are still high for us, you know,
still high for us.

Speaker 3 (30:27):
To enjoy the game. Maybe there he is Senior NFL
reporter lead Content Strategies.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
At the end with Ohio State, people sound like get
him on. The educations aren't as big anymore, you know,
Oh my gosh, we can't beat them now, we got
to beat them.

Speaker 3 (30:44):
So it is that whole area, like Columbus, like Dublin.
That's how they are.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
Why do you do that? What to do? What?

Speaker 3 (30:51):
Go to Dublin all the time? Because I'm just letting
you know, man, I've been there. I know it's like
you've been there, well versed on you know how things
go in Dublin, Ohio.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
They say you parked the golf cart in the pond?
Was that you?

Speaker 3 (31:06):
No, it's not me.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Oh, it's definitely not me. I was not driving. They
said you were a passenger on that cart, isn't it now?
Oh I'm not a great swimmer. I wouldn't have made
it out.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
So if I'm still doing the show here, you can
you know I kept it pretty dry.

Speaker 2 (31:22):
Has there ever been a good looking pond in a
golf course setting? Why do they all look dirty? You
ever noticed that? Yeah? I don't know. There's no clear
water ponds like like Caribbean water. Why can't they get
a Caribbean water pond or body of water on the

(31:43):
courses because they're racist? Dang, Yeah, I would say, is
that what it is? Probably if I.

Speaker 3 (31:49):
Had a guess, But who knows man. It is Two

What even enough?

Speaker 2 (33:17):
At least or there out?

Speaker 3 (33:20):
Lead to lap?

Speaker 2 (33:21):
What do we got?

Speaker 5 (33:21):
Obviously we have the kickoff to the NFL season between
the Ravens and the Chiefs in Kansas City. But of
course I need to ask about Kansas City barbecue sauce,
often famous for sitting on top of the meat instead
of being absorbed by the meat. WHOA, Yes, much thicker,
sweeter and smokier than other You.

Speaker 4 (33:40):
Actually had Kansas City barbue sauce?

Speaker 3 (33:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (33:43):
Sure city.

Speaker 4 (33:45):
No, haven't you been to Kansas City? You've had barbecue there?

Speaker 2 (33:47):
No? I haven't, No, God, what do you thought? Like?

Speaker 4 (33:49):
What do you mean that sounded like you had been there?

Speaker 3 (33:51):
What do you mean absorbed by it? What do you
mean like often cooked with, like baked into it? I
don't know.

Speaker 4 (34:00):
No, you've never been damn.

Speaker 3 (34:05):
You never played the game.

Speaker 4 (34:07):
Well, why do you need to go that direction?

Speaker 3 (34:12):
What do you want me to ask? Are you in
around on the game? I'm asking about Kansas City barbecue sauce.

Speaker 4 (34:17):
In on barbecue sauce.

Speaker 1 (34:18):
Usually it's it's to me at least the way it's made,
Like obviously you're you know your Carolina barbecue sauce is
more mustard based.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
I've had that.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
Yeah, that's more of like the biggest difference I feel like.
You see sometimes like Saint Louis barbecue tends to be
a little sweeter, or even Memphis for that matter, Kansas
City tends to be more of like I'm not even
try to describe it.

Speaker 4 (34:40):
Maybe a little more kick, maybe a little of spice
to it.

Speaker 3 (34:41):
Oh no, that's mine. I need some spice, I need
some kick enough. It's not salsa, all right, let's not
confuse it for that. Jonas Sadie, I'm not into the Carolina.
Carolina sauce is too tangy. The mustard bass just not
my thing.

Speaker 2 (34:55):
Like, not into it. What else we got there? I
love mustard baits guys.

Speaker 5 (35:00):
On Peacock you can find Fight Night The Million Dollar Heist.
It's a heist movie based around a watch party of
a Mohammad al Leaf fight as returned to the ring out.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
Sorry the likes of uh, Kevin.

Speaker 2 (35:11):
Hart, Samuel L.

Speaker 3 (35:12):
Jackson, Don Cheatle.

Speaker 4 (35:13):
I watched it at some point, but it's night.

Speaker 3 (35:15):
You know what I'm in on Peacock Benny versus the
Penny two, That's what I'm in Ben Miller and what's
his name?

Speaker 2 (35:24):

Speaker 3 (35:26):
Yeah, that's what I heard.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
Ship.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
What what else do you go?
