So we are going to get to some other news
and notes from around the n but we do have
some breaking news right now with Eddie.
Speaker 5 (01:03):
Garcia breaking news from Fox Sports.
Speaker 6 (01:09):
Well, guys, we know that the Kansaity Chiefs have had
their issues at the wide receiver position. Still though undefeated
on the season, but looks like they're about to upgrade
with a trade. Adam Schefter reporting that DeAndre Hopkins, former
Pro bowler with the Texans now with the Tennessee Titans,
is apparently going to be on the move and heading
to the Kansaity Chiefs. Don't know what the details as
(01:31):
far as what Kansaity's given up. I haven't seen that,
but again, DeAndre Hopkins apparently heading from the Titans to
the Chiefs.
Speaker 7 (01:38):
Oh. I like this move for them. Wow, I like
this move.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
You talk about going from a cardboard box to a
mansion for him, Yeah, good for him.
Speaker 7 (01:47):
And think about it like he's thirty two years old.
Speaker 8 (01:50):
He clearly doesn't have like that first step, that top
end speed anymore, but they don't need that. They've got Worthy,
you know Brown eventually, you know, play his role as impact.
I've got some of their spots with speed, and he
was being grossly underutilized in Tennessee only what fifteen receptions
I think on the season through six games with like
(02:12):
three starts. So this will be a good pickup for
them to have more of that veteran reliable receiver outside
of Kelsey, someone else to help out kind of share
that burden.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
If he can bring just a little bit of that
d hot magic bruh, they become that much more dangerous
and you'd have to assume that that's what they're feeling
in Kansas City, you know obviously, if he can bring
just that extra element to that that you know, he.
Speaker 9 (02:50):
Man.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
I just I'm curious if he has enough left though, Like,
does he have enough gas left?
Speaker 7 (02:57):
You think that you think it's empty.
Speaker 8 (03:00):
It might be on the blink, it's on E're you're
like riding where like remember when it was at Digital
and you're like, it's on E, but I've got like
at least another thirty miles.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
Yeah, that's kind of what I mean. Remember when yeah,
you ride is like that.
Speaker 8 (03:15):
Sorry if everyone up ridded their ride, but you jone.
You know what, how about this queen pause for a second.
Can we get jonas a car deal? I mean Petros
has one. Let's get you a car deal. You have
to do a read for it. You'll get a free
car out of it. Doesn't have to be Toyo. It
could be Ford could be one of the many different,
(03:36):
you know, sponsors that we have access to through my
Heart I'm just saying, I'm throwing.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
It out there approaching three hundred and seventy thousand miles.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Baby, I mean, I feel like you drive that truck
so you could be able to brag about how old
it is. No, I just I'm going to go out
and I'm going to vandalize that truck so that you
have to get rid of it.
Speaker 8 (03:56):
Well, you don't have to do much. I'll just blow
on it. I'll probably break down.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Come on.
Speaker 7 (04:02):
So I was coming out to leave.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
I was coming out to go home after the show
the other day, and Jonas was like walking frantically back
from his car. I thought it was dead. I thought
it was dead. I looked at the truck. I was like,
are you okay? Like, is it good? Turns out he
only had to go to the restroom, but I did
it was something else was dead inside of them.
Speaker 7 (04:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I thought it was the truck that was He just
had to go back to the restaurant. Yeah, changed his mind.
Got to be religious with the oil changes. Want that
car to last. That's the trick. That's no, that's the trick.
Speaker 7 (04:37):
I mean, honestly, though, why are you so loyal to
that truck? Though? Like, what's your what's your thing?
Speaker 9 (04:42):
Like?
Speaker 7 (04:42):
Well about it?
Speaker 8 (04:44):
You didn't you say you that was where you took
your dead dog to the vet or something the last time.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Yeah, I've taken him in that car many times.
Speaker 8 (04:51):
Yeah, I thought that was what you were holding on too.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
No, the the pet Hurst came out and took him
away after I.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Thought you told me you the dog to the vet.
But all right, no, the vet. When it was time
to put them down, they came.
Speaker 7 (05:05):
To the house. It was a house called Okay, so
I got that wrong house.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
I mean, I mean, if you want to go through
any other memories.
Speaker 8 (05:13):
Of my I mean, you're still hanging on to it
from twelve twelve years ago. But I mean who's counting?
Speaker 4 (05:18):
So, like, why do you keep saying it's twelve years ago?
It was fourteen, all right, So it was twenty ten. Yeah,
so that's like a level with this. How long have
you had the truck? Like since you were in high school?
Two thousand and six?
Speaker 7 (05:31):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I was still in the league, bro, Yeah, that was
my last year in the league.
Speaker 7 (05:36):
Yeah. I was in college. Yeah, think about that.
Speaker 8 (05:40):
I mean I was just like a college kid, you know,
I'm going to entire life in front of me, and
now I'm like four kids into it married.
Speaker 7 (05:46):
It's a whole different deal. Now sign my autograph on there.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
June two thousand and six, drove off the toyot a
lot in Seamy Valley, California, and you were happy it
had that it had nine.
Speaker 8 (05:57):
You should sign that thing and put a g F
one on that.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Tang for a good for you for you?
Speaker 3 (06:04):
What about it?
Speaker 7 (06:05):
What about an E A D? What what about? Go yourself?
Speaker 8 (06:11):
You can you can figure out what a D means
a good old good for you?
Speaker 7 (06:16):
Yeah, Tang tang. This show has been very very uh,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
Congratulations to DeAndre Hopkins. He is off and running in
with the Kansas City Chiefs. I mean they're already undefeated.
It's like, I know this is going to help out
their passing game, but I don't know. I mean, we'll
see what they has been reported, what they're giving up
for him.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
I'm seeing a conditional fourth round pick.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
But I mean it's desperate, right, You're in desperate times
right now. Yeah, they're desperate though, Undefe Yeah right, it's crazy.
I mean Juju just went down. Rice is or was
it Rashishi?
Speaker 7 (07:00):
He's out. Yeah, who else do they have? The young kid?
Yeah we Worthy, Yeah, he's like the Watson kid. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
So I mean, and they still have Kelsey. I mean
they must feel like they're shorthanded though, right, I mean,
to make this type of move, they must feel short handed.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
Is is Smith sustill gonna be out? Though he's not
like an ir or anything, he's just banged up.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (07:27):
I mean, they still have Miko Hardman and Sky Moore.
The problem is they've got a bunch of like small
wide receivers, small fast guys, Like that's what all those
guys are.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
You know, you need like a different body to Luyt
Brown has been out the entire time. I know, hopefully
get him back. I've been waiting for that. That's been
the most disappointing thing about this offense. It's not the
fact that the passing game and and all that hasn't
been the same. It's the fact that they don't have
all of the speed that they have. Like my dream
is to see them come out in ten personnel with
(07:57):
four wide receivers and it's exam if you're Worthy, it's
Hollywood Brown, it's Miko Hardman and Skymore and everyone's just like,
oh God, like all these dudes can absolutely fly, and
you have Mahomes back there and just let him figure
out a way of just everyone playing soft cushions.
Speaker 8 (08:14):
Just bing bing bing bing bing boom like down the field.
I'd love that.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Yeah, it's gotta be amazing, good move.
Speaker 7 (08:22):
It's not gonna happen though.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Well, you just think they're gonna play old boy.
Speaker 7 (08:26):
Now, they'll just do what they do.
Speaker 8 (08:27):
You know, they'll just Kelsey will be out there and
Hopkins will be out there, and you know, they'll just
make their typical crazy play that happens when Mahomes scrambles around,
someone gets open, you know, Kelsey catches the ball that
he pitches it to.
Speaker 7 (08:41):
Someone else out of nowhere.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
God, he's got to be so relieved to get the
hell out of Tennessee.
Speaker 7 (08:46):
Though. Oh yeah, Nashville's great.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Well, I mean, yeah, National's great. I mean, you know,
a little too great for some people. You know, if
you're Jay Calller and you go day drinking.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
But oh, come on, man, come on.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Jonah was trying to judge, just saying, you know, you
got to have somebody throw your keys to somebody else
next time and let that or.
Speaker 8 (09:06):
Uber or if you're if you're Jonas, just leave your
truck there because no one wants to.
Speaker 7 (09:11):
Hey, nobody go and mess with.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
It or offer.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
Who you had more than two thousand dollars cash to
try and get out of it.
Speaker 8 (09:20):
Grand I actually didn't read the entire stories that what happened.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
He apparently got out, he was trying to flee the scene,
and you know, they they probably were taking a video
of his license plate and then he said, okay, well
you offered him two grand. At that point they had
already called the cops. The cops came, and yeah, they
went from there.
Speaker 8 (09:41):
I will not reveal any names, but we did have
a player one time, very similar situation.
Speaker 7 (09:47):
I've been drinking. He left the bar.
Speaker 8 (09:50):
He was with another girl at the time, and he
backed into another car, left the scene, but everyone knew
where he stayed. He had a very unique li situation
like as far as where he chose to live for
whatever reason. And I think his girlfriend was flying in
and so she landed, built him out of jail, broke
(10:11):
up with him, and flew right back out.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Right.
Speaker 7 (10:16):
Yeah, that was a that was an interesting one. Shouldn't laugh, No, no,
it's not.
Speaker 8 (10:22):
But like unfortunately he had, like the girl that he
was with, he had like just met. So given the
fact that he was like drinking the accident and then
flees the scene of it, it wasn't like she was
holds any loyalty, so she like.
Speaker 7 (10:34):
Ratted him out.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
Oh no, yeah, well listen, you know what happens. Happens
sometimes it is two pros and a cup of Joe
here on Fox Sports Radio. So that is the Kansas
City Chiefs. They are on one end of the spectrum
in the NFL, undefeated. Now they add DeAndre Hopkins like that,
that is a team that is on the rise and
ascending at this point. And then you've got other teams
(10:56):
in the NFL that are just kind of whatever, and
no one of those teams just kind of not a
lot going on there, Like yeah, Dallas, your Dallas Cowboys. Yeah,
let's go talk about let's go fresh off the bye week.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
You said they're on the spectrum, at the end of
the spectrum, fresh off not good one, fresh off the
bye week, a bye week that saw you know, Mike
McCarthy get called out.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
That'saw, guys not getting called out though, Yeah, I mean
Jerry Jones basically went on local radio and ripped in
and you.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Know, threatened jobs. He was back on local radio with
Sean and R.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
Jay on the fan in Dallas yesterday and one of
the things that he was asked about was, you know,
Derrek Henry looks pretty good. You guys could have used
some help at running back. He lives in the Dallas area.
He was interested, you know, what are your thoughts on
his performance thus far?
Speaker 3 (11:55):
In Baltimore, here was the Cowboys.
Speaker 9 (11:56):
Owner, Derrick Henry is having a career year. I don't
if he'd be having that career year in our situation.
And that's really something you really do have to look at,
because if he had not had as many carriers as
our running backs have had, then he certainly probably wouldn't
have attained the level of impact he's having. And then
(12:18):
he's a real good compliment to the type of offense
they run. We don't run that type offense at all.
Derrick Henry didn't fit because principally of managing the cap,
of managing the cap and anticipation of the players that
we were going to sign weeks later, or anticipation of
the players we're going to be signing in the future.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
So he got to So you're basically signing your offense stinks.
Do is that what you're saying like that, is that
a guilty admission that you just we don't have the
type of offense where think about this where Derek Henry, right,
we don't have the type offense where Dereck Henry would
have the type of success.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
Is that a shot at Dak Henry's contract was two years,
sixteen million. I mean it's not like he got you know,
Saquon Barkley money. Like it feels like when they're talking
about going all in before they they've got twenty three.
Speaker 8 (13:17):
And a half million in cap space, Like, what's he
talking about? They could have easily made this move work.
I mean, I've talked about this before. Cash over cap.
Cash over cap, when you pay out bonuses and signing bonuses,
you can divert some of that off of the cap
(13:37):
and in lieu of the players getting the money up front. Now,
owners don't want to do that usually for two reasons. Hey,
it's cash out of their pocket right away, and it
also sets the presence when you give out big signing
bonuses that you know, hey, the guy's already paid, he's
already comfortable. Like, is it gonna be as hungry as
is he going to play the same way, you know,
unless you make him earn it. So I just I
(13:59):
don't understand the narrative where you do have the cap space.
You did have the cap space, you could have made
a work, but you chose not to Just be honest
about it, like you are where you are because of
the decisions that you made, Jerry, that's the truth of it.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Yeah, that's weird.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I just thought when they're talking about we were all
in for this year, like that meant you were legitimately
all in and said it looks like no, we're all
in to find out whether or not this team can
win as constructed currently.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I don't care what your offensive playbook reads and what
it looks like. If you have professional ballplayers that are
on your offensive line, and that center can snap the
ball and that quarterback can receive the ball like get
the ball, hold the ball, handle the ball, and can
(14:47):
hand it off to Derrick Henry, then Derek Henry fits
your offense. Like how do you say, I don't know
that Derek Henry would have the type of impact or
success that he's having. You know here, then what he
is having there, he had impact and success in every
market he's played in. I just I think that that
(15:10):
is a like, that's a slow drip right there, Like
you're you are now detaching yourself from the person that
is calling the plays for your team, which is who.
Speaker 7 (15:24):
Since who is that?
Speaker 4 (15:27):
Since Derreck Henry took over as full time starter with
Tennessee back in twenty eighteen. His lowest output year while
he was with the Titans was twenty twenty one.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
He only had nine hundred and thirty seven yards rush.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
And then he get hurt that year in eight games.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
Right right, He's literally produces every single year every year.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
It doesn't sound like sound reasoning. It sounds like, listen,
we're going to see what happens this year with this team,
this coach, and if it doesn't go well, we're moving on.
Speaker 7 (16:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (16:00):
Did you listen to how he talked about scheme too? Oh,
he doesn't fit in like our scheme and our cap. Dude,
you find a way of putting in scheme that works
for Derrick Henry when you have that type of running
back or player. We talk about that a lot with
quarterbacks putting in concepts they're more comfortable with, or they
ran in college, and we can't talk about that with
(16:22):
a running back, Like can't we put in some run
plays that you feel comfortable, Like he's a running back,
he can adapt and adjust to certain things, but can't
you put in plays that he feels comfortable with. It's
not complicated, I think, honestly, you know, one of the
toughest things about it is just figuring out like why,
you know, why did you choose not to? Is it
because they have this attachment to Zeke and they wanted
(16:45):
him to be back in Dallas. They thought that would
be good for their organization, good for the locker room.
Speaker 7 (16:49):
I have no idea.
Speaker 8 (16:50):
I mean, obviously it's gonna be cheaper, but I look
at that and go, you can adapt a scheme to
what Derick Henry does well, which will benefit you. So
I don't say it's not like a scheme fit because
you have the cap space and you build the scheme
around players, you know, not players around the scheme.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
What are they spending on the running back position with
all three guys that they currently have on the roster
right now? And could you have one Rico'doubdell Zeke and
douce Vaughn, Like what would you guess the as far
as what they're eating up in the cap.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
I mean, yeah, would it equals sixteen million?
Speaker 4 (17:33):
No, I don't think sixteen million. It's two years sixteen million.
That's the deal that Derrick Henry Gott.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
That's what I'm saying. So it's eight million. You're saying
eight million a year. Oh my, you don't even want
to know what is. You don't even want to know
whore it's more. No, that's not let four point two million,
oh wow.
Speaker 7 (17:54):
Cap And by the.
Speaker 8 (17:55):
Way, by the way, by the way, that is tied
for thirty first for the position for average annual value ranks,
So they're literally near the bottom end of the league
and the in the cap space they're devoted to them.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
That way he got accused of is that he doesn't
spend any money on any other positions except well, well,
I mean he spends it on defensive players like one
here and there.
Speaker 8 (18:22):
Yeah, I mean that what the quarterback they spend a
lot on. You know that the D line used to
be the case. Well, once they signed Micah, very part
of it. But look here here's the reality. If you
if you want to look at how they're allocating their
the funds they're number three in the league in offense,
or they're spending their money.
Speaker 7 (18:42):
They're thirtieth on defense. So we can talk.
Speaker 8 (18:46):
About how like, hey, it's Mike Zammer it's not working,
or their defense their injuries. They're also not spending money
on that side of the ball. Now, some of that
has to do with the fact Micah hasn't gotten his
next deal, and once he gets that that will change.
But they're also not voting quite as much to that position.
And then if you look at on offense, the position
they're devoting a ton of money to, it's wide receiver.
(19:08):
They're sixth in the league as far as average annual
value spending. So just to give you a sense of
they're they're dumping it all into kind of dack because
they're number one as far as what they spent the
quarterback average annual value, and then you're number six at
wide receiver, and then you go through the rest. I mean,
they are in the bottom half in spending on every
(19:29):
other position. I mean even though line, which is a
group that traditionally has been really good for them. But
that's how they stack the roster quarterback and wide receiver
and it's obviously not paying off for them very well.
Speaker 4 (19:41):
Yeah, well Nickel and dime, Dallas, Baby, who do they
have this week? Who do they have this all of
the Niners on Sunday night.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
That's going to be an interesting guy. It's a pivotal
moment for the Niners too. Both teams. Yeah, both teams.
Speaker 7 (19:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
If Dallas loses, they what they haven't won very many games?
Speaker 7 (20:02):
Right?
Speaker 1 (20:03):
What two wins? Three win three? And that's the same
for the forty nine ers. Yeah, I mean, do we
come away from this game saying that the loser of
this game is kind of like, do we start to
have the conversation of steering into the twilight?
Speaker 7 (20:23):
Like I would hate to say that.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
And again I say, I'm not I'm not into saying
that about the forty nine ers, But I have not
been high on Dallas at all.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
I trust the Niners direction and in front office more
than they do Dallas way more so.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
What if they lose? What if? What if the forty
nine ers lose to Dallas? Do you want me to
give you the percentage probability from NFL dot Com.
Speaker 7 (20:47):
Yeah, let's do it all right.
Speaker 8 (20:49):
If they win, their odds increased to fifty seven percent
chance of making the playoffs.
Speaker 7 (20:54):
Nice.
Speaker 8 (20:55):
If they lose, it's down to about thirty three percent,
thirty four percent.
Speaker 7 (20:59):
Not nice. That goes Dallas.
Speaker 8 (21:02):
Dallas, on the other hand, even with a win, does
not eclipse a coin flip. They're below fifty percent chances
even with a win over San Francisco.
Speaker 7 (21:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (21:13):
Well, the team that's currently sitting in the playoff pole position,
or two teams I would say that I don't foresee
making it are Seattle.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
In Chicago, Oh jeez, I say the Jets.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
But NFC.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Yeah, yeah, so those two in particular, and I think
you've got Philly, You've got Tampa, You've got Dallas in
San Francisco biding for it.
Speaker 7 (21:36):
Jonas's Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
The Cardinals just one? Are they the dark horse to
get the NFC West.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
I don't know, man, that that wasn't very impressive Day one,
all right.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
I mean, I'm just saying, losing is ugly. It's uglier
than an ugly win, That's all I'm gonna say.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Yeah, I mean, well, look, we've got a long time
to play out, and a lot of things could happen.
Trade deadline still around the corner, DeAndre Hopkins just got dealt.
So there could be more teams on the that making
moves here in the NFL. Hopefully it's the Cowboys. It
is Two Pros and a Cup of Joe here on
Fox Sports Radio. Coming up next here, though, we have
identified something that you needed and you didn't even realize it.
(22:23):
If you were thinking to yourself, why do I got
to wait all the way for Thursday for Quinn's wins,
Well you don't, because we've got it coming up next
here on FSR.
Speaker 5 (22:32):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and

Winning Cures All Illnesses? It really does.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
I'm going to win. It's Quinn's wins.
Speaker 8 (23:08):
Who get excited, folks, yeah, little college football on a Wednesday.
Who saw that coming? Huhhh, yeah, brother, you sure didn't.
You guys were surprised by that seeing this on the rundown.
Oh yeah, I'm gonna keep this one simple, short and sweet.
You know, he took up a lot of time in
the first segment, So Liberty headed to a kind of
(23:30):
saw state tonight.
Speaker 9 (23:32):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (23:32):
Liberty undefeated, trying to make a bid for being that
group of five team that wins its conference and potentially
moves on to the College Football Playoff. They're not in
the top twenty five though, folks. They did get a vote,
but that's it. This is what they need. They need
to win, big, big, big, and the spread is twenty
(23:54):
five and a half. Liberty is laying go ahead and
lay those points. Okay, style points are going to be involved.
This team knows in order to be a part of
the College Football Playoff, they have to win, and they
have to win convincingly. We're seeing this more and more
in college football too, even with some teams like Milma Mater,
Notre Dame Who's Some people have accused them of trying
(24:14):
to run the score at times, But the truth of
the matter is when you don't have that strong of
a schedule. You have to win and beat the expectations
of everyone out there. What are what are those expectations?
It's typically the spread. So in this case Liberty in
a very similar fashion, one of the best teams in
the group of five. They should be able to handle
their business tonight. So lay the twenty five and a
(24:37):
half points. It's a lock.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
By the way, how about the fact that at well done,
all right, well done.
Speaker 7 (24:45):
Tennesau.
Speaker 8 (24:47):
Never heard of them Georgia and it's in Kennesau, Georgia.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I've heard of Kennesau, Georgia, but I just never heard
of Kennesau Sauw State.
Speaker 7 (24:55):
Are they HBCU. No, they're not. No, they're not. They
are zero and six this season, though.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
There's that.
Speaker 8 (25:07):
They're in Conference USA. There's been a lot of movement
in and out, but usually when teams do move up
to the FBS level, it's through UH Conference uside.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
I don't know I feel about all these other conferences
trying to, you know, walk on the very special grounds
of MAC football Wednesdays, you know, and it just it
feels a little troubling to me. First off, MAC football
usually plays on Tuesdays, yeah, Tuesdays and Wednesdays though, yeah,
kind of both. But tonight you're not getting any MAC. Yeah,
(25:37):
zero maction.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Because the MAC usually starts midweek in late October, like
last weekend of October, last week.
Speaker 7 (25:45):
It's a tradition unlike any other.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
It's great.
Speaker 7 (25:48):
Yeah, I love me some action.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
I'm like a little bowling Green.
Speaker 8 (25:52):
I might try to go to just a midweek game,
take my kids to it, let them see some action,
let them see what the MAX all about.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
What's the closest one to you?
Speaker 7 (26:02):
That's a good question.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
I would say Ohio University is probably the closest by
the guess. I mean, they're all that's the That's the
cool thing about the MAC is they're all relatively close
in the Midwest.
Speaker 8 (26:12):
Or if you especially if you lived in Ohio. I mean,
Toledo's right there, Eastern Michigan's not that far away. Boy
and Green, Ohio?
Speaker 7 (26:21):
What's up? When did that happen?
Speaker 8 (26:23):
I like to keep things under reption, clearly, but you.
Speaker 7 (26:26):
Like letting the ass out. And I found out what
everybody else.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
I mean I knew about it.
Speaker 7 (26:31):
Wait, of course you did.
Speaker 9 (26:32):
Oh, here we go.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
But you know, some people are privy to that information saying, so.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
You know, we let it out the other day too,
and I didn't really like respond to it. I heard
it like you touched on it when we were talking
about the leaves changing colors on the trees and stuff
like that.
Speaker 7 (26:47):
And that's right.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
I just don't like. I just don't like to be
cold anymore. So you chose, you chose violance get cold again?
Oh yeah, you gotta have does your car have have
the starter? Like I had to use a starter for
my car and well over a decade.
Speaker 7 (27:04):
You have to understand, LeVar.
Speaker 8 (27:06):
Every single night, I do an ice bath at forty
degrees to my neck. The cold does not bother me.
I sit in that puppy for sixty eight minutes.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
So so one of my worst memories is when I
had to get up and I had to go early
in the morning and I had to do the double tape,
like the double tap and you hear your car go right, Yeah,
you got to thaw your car out?
Speaker 7 (27:33):
Yeah yeah, I just don't miss that. Well, I don't
miss it.
Speaker 8 (27:36):
I'd be I'd be keeping it in a garage though, so.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah, but even if it were in the garage, I
would rog just heated. Oh yeah, well that's fair. Yeah,
that's fair. Okay, okay, I guess that's.
Speaker 8 (27:51):
Not that that had anything to do with the decision
to move here.
Speaker 7 (27:54):
I don't like being cold.
Speaker 9 (27:55):
Man.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Now has it gotten to the point temperature wise.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
Where it's absolutely phenomenal?
Speaker 8 (28:01):
I bet there's not been a better fall way there
that I can recall my life. It has been that nice.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
You had the temps in the Midwest, like seventy five
eighty degrees.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
What's the best It's take more like sixty seventy, but
it's perfect. High school football is probably way more interesting
than the maction.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
What who do you go see anybody play?
Speaker 8 (28:21):
My cousin plays, he plays their team. Their team will
make the playoffs. They have their final home game this Friday.
Although the season hasn't exactly god is expected.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
So they're pretty good though, just not as they hoped. No,
I wouldn't describe it. I mean they're going to have
a losing record when it's all said and done. Yeah,
but they've got some pieces. They got some piece My.
Speaker 7 (28:41):
Kids team made it to the playoffs with two wins
last year. Well that's that's the problem.
Speaker 8 (28:46):
Is after COVID they opened up playoffs to pretty much everyone.
I think a lot of a lot of states have
done that, with the exception of like some of the
really really bad teams, but most everyone makes it in so.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
So here the reason why they were able to make it,
which was the reason why we got shot. I don't
want to we got uh did incorrectly as well, I'll say,
you know, because I don't want to get dumped. Was
our strength of schedule. So we went undefeated the year
I was coaching, we went undefeated, but we got put
(29:18):
in in Section three like Level three, which we were
easily a Level five team, you know, like like Section five.
The lower the number, the better the teams. Right, so
we play your Belinda who ends up winning it all.
We should have beat them, but we didn't. But I digress.
The reason why my kids team made the playoffs last
(29:41):
year with two wins was because they were playing their
strength of schedule was like that of like Division three,
Division two, Division four schools that they were playing.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
It is weird that are you're almost punished for we're.
Speaker 7 (29:54):
Having a good year. Yeah we had.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
We had a good year with a Division five, Division
sixteen and they put us in Division three and put
us against the top rated team in the playoffs in
the first round.
Speaker 8 (30:06):
So that all sounds too confusing.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
I mean the big one is this weekend though.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
Bosco John Bosco, my guy, Jason Agro, the coaches what's
his name. Yeah, those jokes have already been told every
time I hear it, not that I'm saying here nothing.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Uh So I'm not the only one.
Speaker 7 (30:36):
You put it light, that's how you put it.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
You put it light, Okay, but yeah, that's He's done
a hell of a job with Bosco to bright Away,
a hell of a job. He's made them very, very relevant.
I mean they've been relevant in the past, but not
as relevant as they've been, you know, since he's taken it.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
He's a really good dude too, and he uh.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
And modern day is still going even without Rao. Man,
they're still good too.
Speaker 4 (30:59):
When you guys were we're talking about you know, we
were having a discussion about coaching, and you know, there's
things that you know on the outside you're just not
aware of. Like he's told me stuff about what that
what their team is going through, like drama leaving, like
private versus public, and you don't like you, you know,
me on the outside knows that I'm like, well.
Speaker 7 (31:19):
That's a lot.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
On the high school level, bro, they get paid like
college coaches. Like it's it's a not like a college
college coach, but like on that level. Like I'm talking like,
these guys are in they're they're get paid.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
He's telling me they're gonna have So tickets went on sale.
Tickets for modern day Saint John's.
Speaker 7 (31:40):
They probably sold out in minute, said.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
Ten to twenty minutes, they're gone, and it's like, uh
and they tailgate.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Twelve thousand people are going to be there.
Speaker 7 (31:47):
They tailgate just like a college.
Speaker 8 (31:49):
Well that's a big game though on LF if it is,
it's a good game. Well I know, but I'm just saying,
like in certain parts of Ohio you get like ten
thousand there every week.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Right, That's and that's that was something. That's why I
said high school football there it's probably. Yeah, it's different.
It's fun to watch, it's fun to go watch, like.
Speaker 8 (32:05):
Everyone goes kids just like people who don't even have
kids playing, they just got to see the team play.
Speaker 7 (32:10):
For the community.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
There's so many people, like the only way you can
get a hold of anybody is modern day.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
But modern day and Saint John Bosco would beat that
ass of most of them places. Yeah, we got twelve
some thousand people coming out to watch them. Even out
where we're from, they'd be playing some They got some
goons on them teams.
Speaker 7 (32:28):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Well, it's also a private school, right, I mean it's
a little different when you're talking about not being able
to recruit and all that. Yeah, well yeah, some would
say they recruiting some of these spots.
Speaker 7 (32:39):
It shouts south to Central.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
It's time for good, bad and.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Ugly lead to laugh.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Who's got what?
Speaker 4 (33:39):
Well?
Speaker 1 (33:39):
As we do each and every Wednesday, we start with
the good news, and LeVar, you are delivering the.
Speaker 7 (33:44):
Good this week. Yeah, wait, go LeVar.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Yeah, it's super quick here, man. I gotta tell you,
I really, really really was happy to see that a
father and a son made history playing at the NBA level.
Bronny and lebron they united, They went in together, they
played a couple minutes, missed a couple of.
Speaker 7 (34:01):
Shots, but they got out there. And I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
Anytime you can keep a family affair going in that
type of manner, making history, that's good for me.
Speaker 7 (34:11):
Oh that's good for the week. I like it. Well,
you can't have good without the bad. Jonas what was
bad this week?
Speaker 4 (34:17):
I'm gonna go with the Carolina Panthers. Just the gift
that keeps on giving. You've got Dave Canalis having an
answer questions about whether or not Bryce Young is going
to be traded. But Andy Dalton's gonna get be the
starter still. Andy Dalton gets in a minor car accident
with his family yesterday. It just feels like everything in
Carolina is melting down and falling apart. They're getting blown
(34:39):
out game after game. Bryce Young's just kind of sitting
there shaking hands with other top drafted quarterbacks, going, hey man,
what's your secret? Oh, you actually have a functional organization
that's not a complete disaster year in a year out.
Feel bad for the guy. Bad situation for Bryce. Hope
it clears up soon and you can get the hell
out of there.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
Tang and from bad worse Brady, what was ugly?
Speaker 8 (35:01):
Well, I guess I think we all know what was
ugly this past week. Is it ever pretty when someone
picks their nose and eats a booger? Start off the show?
But I mean it's ugly. It happened, We've got the
video evidence of it. Unfortunate spotf Aaron Rodgers to be
in on a sideline.
Speaker 7 (35:19):
With the need to pick a booger.
Speaker 8 (35:20):
I mean, let me make the case quickly for picking it,
at least not eating it, but picking it. You are
Aaron Rodgers and you're gonna have to talk to the
media at some point after the game. You don't have
to have a booger sitting around there or have your
you know, face up there with a big, big old
booger sticking out as you're answering all these questions about
the team and the loss. So clearly the pick is justified.
(35:42):
It really comes down to the eating portion of it,
which there's there's some thoughts that maybe he wasn't or
as I think jonas you or LeVar pointed out, maybe
he was just trying to slightly talk to someone on
the side and his hand was near his mouth. But
I don't know. It looks like there was consumption. So
I'm gonna go ahead and say this is the ugly
for the week. Was Aaron Rodgers picking his nose and
(36:02):
eating it.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
By the way, how about him smelling the bottle full
of uh was smelling salts? Oh yeah, a whole bot
bath salts. I think, okay, that's happening different. I've never
done smelling salts before. You should pe ammonia caps burn
your face They're not salts, it's ammonia.
Speaker 3 (36:21):
Is there any like long term issues from good to miny?
Speaker 7 (36:25):
I mean, why does that matter? Zonus damn
