Speaker 4 (02:27):
You know.
Speaker 6 (02:27):
It gives me a big, big ass hug. He's like,
you see, little Bro, I said, little Bro? I said,
what do you mean?
Speaker 4 (02:35):
What do you mean?
Speaker 6 (02:36):
Like, did you see Brady? I mean, I said, Brady,
what do you mean you know Brady's here?
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Is it really?
Speaker 6 (02:47):
And I didn't know? And I don't see him. I
haven't seen him. He's like, I think those guys I
think they left. I said they left. I said, but
you're saying they were in here, like they were here?
Yeah I was.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
I was. So that's the extent of it. So here
we go.
Speaker 5 (03:02):
Let's go hit my side of the story. This is
not gonna end well for one LaVar Arrington. So first off,
I did not know LeVar was going to be at
the same dinner we were at. Now, granted for the
listeners out there, the National Football Foundation, which selects the
College Football Hall of Fame, there is how many how
many people would you guess is in that ball like
(03:22):
six seven hundred.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
I mean it's it is. It's a very very.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Big ballroom at the Bellagio, and you see basically everyone
that's in the college football world to some degree.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
There's like pieces of everyone.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
Right, Like I saw Dan Mullen and now putting two
and two together because he just accepted the UNLV head
coaching job. It's like, oh, now I understand why Dan
Mullen was there. But you see commissioners of every you
know conference, not just powerful to who's who went there for.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
Right, It's a it's a big group.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
So as you're trying to kind of make your way
to however many of the hundreds of tables, and so
I think we're at like table one, twenty five or
whatever it was. I was unaware, completely unaware that LaVar
was even there. You know, I wasn't able to do
the show with traveling and other stuff and other commitments.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
So I wasn't even I wasn't even aware the LaVar
was there.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
Until they go through the announcement of the players who
are up for awards on the stage that night, and
then they go through this long procession, which, I'll be
honest with you, it was a little bit odd because
I think every guy keeps handing Matt's side of note LeVar.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
Yeah, so you gotta give him as your name right right.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Which is which is like, come on, let's like, let's
give Matt something else to be able to read from
instead of you guys handing him a slip every time.
But I digress because we weren't walks out and I
was like, well, I didn't know Leavar was even gonna
be here, all right, Like it's such a packed room
of people.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
I didn't know.
Speaker 5 (04:56):
However, when they did Lvar's intro, they did not mention
two pros and a cup of Joe as part of it.
But they did mention the up on Game Network.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Did they really? Oh they did, LeVar. I didn't know that,
mind you.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
LeVar is the only person who was live streaming from
the second he walked out to taking a picture with
Matt sign to.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Then walking all the way down the line up with all.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
The other former or current Hall of famers, uh you know,
form or whatever.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Past weeks. Yeah, yeah, and it's still live.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
I watched the whole thing that my god, dude, like
stop doing No one else is doing this but you
right now, exactly.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
So and so on.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
The note of Urban Urban was there. He went though
with the Utah crowd for Alex Smith because that was
his quarterback. When is it Utah? So I saw Urban
for a minute. Uh game, A hug game, a slap
on the ass, that was it. And then I then
I was with the Fox folks and we had a
step a dinner that was set up kind of after it,
(06:04):
so we went for a portion and then we we
left afterwards and kind of had a separate dinner. So
I didn't get to see if I didn't see anyone beforehand,
I didn't see anyone, definitely obviously durning it because I
could get up and talk to a bunch of people
during the whole thing. But once I saw you, then
I was like, crap, I'm not going able to say
out to LeVar. I never even got to see Paul
puts Lesnie, who I played against. We trained together for
(06:25):
a little bit in Arizona. I was really excited for him.
I was excited for Alex, so I know a little
bit saw his dad. Awesome event. However, I want to
make sure Jonas hears this again, two pros and a
cup of Joe was not mentioned.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Once that's up on game. I didn't hear what he said.
I didn't know you did. I did because I was
sitting there, and I did literally table not on me.
He didn't put two pros and a couple of jokes
on me. I don't know. This seems like you're being
blameless right now.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
I'm just saying I had no idea what they were saying,
and I just gave.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Him my name. You sound a like Jonas there, my
name is on the call? Who did this show solo yesterday?
Is doing solo show Saturday?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Yeah, and listen.
Speaker 5 (07:07):
Also also, I did get a question from Klatt who goes, hey, man,
what's up of you guys talking about me on your
show so much? I go, well, it's a little bit
of a turf war between you and Jonas because he
feels like he's had JKS for a while and now
you did the whole Joel Clatt show, and it's just
it's a battle right now. I was like, he's battling
with you for the rights to Jake ass.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Now.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
I'm not totally offended by Levar's move, not mentioning our
show because that's what they're going with. Well, because as
a you know, as the main filling for up on
game like, I can't be outraged too much because you know,
the main feeling.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
That is part of my part of my credential.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Wait real quick, so when you need to fill in,
Jonas is the guy you go to. I mean I
would trust, I trust the show, of course you do.
Speaker 5 (07:52):
Yeah, okay, can I can I tell you guys something
incredibly embarrassing that happened?
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Good?
Speaker 5 (07:59):
So it was it was black tie, which I will
say this, LeVar, not really black tie.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
The outfit. I was a little disappointed.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Good for you, I hate you.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Thank you. Well, it's not even that didn't even wear
a jacket, did you.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
I had a jacket of yeah, okay, all right, I
couldn't tell from where where a table was. But so anyway,
I haven't worked one a tuxedo probably since the last
time I went to this exact event. It when I
was back in New York. So that's how long it's been,
because it's been in Vegas now for at least what
five years? Yeah, so I haven't worn tuxedo shoes that
(08:34):
I've got that I've worn maybe twice in my life.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Maybe five six years ago and then ten years ago.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Right, So I put on my tucks and I go downstairs,
and as I'm walking to go meet one of our
executives at Fox, I'm warning these tuxedo shoes, I feel
like I like stepped on something like kind of metal
or something. I kind of look back, there's like this
metal strip.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
On the ground. I was like, no, that's weird.
Speaker 5 (08:59):
And I take a few more steps and literally the
bottom sole of my right shoe falls off, like the
whole thing, and so I like turn back and look,
and fortunately, like not many people were really around me,
and I like went back.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
I looked at I was like, what the hell?
Speaker 5 (09:16):
So I pick it up, I walk over the trash
can I throw it away, And I'm thinking, all right,
I guess I'm gonna like wear one shoe without a
sole and the other one's gonna be fine, and it's
gonna feel like a slipper. So as I'm walking again
closer to the bar and our executive at.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
I sit down and I show him, like, dude, I
sole my shoe fell off.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
I could look and as I look at my other one,
it's already halfway off, so I literally pull I rip
it off, and then I'm looking at these tuxedo shoes.
I'm like, dude, these are not going to hold up
if I have to walk out to like anywhere, a
car in the ballroom table, these things are gonna fall apart.
They're like glorified slippers at this point. So it's five o'clock.
(09:57):
We're trying to leave by five thirty and our president's coming.
So I'm like, all right, I can't be late, don't
want to be I don't want to I want to
put my best foot forward. So I run into the
concierge and' like, hey, is there any places that have
like a fourteen fifteen like dress shoe size? I was like, please,
here's my number. Please like call me back sou as
it can. If they can bring him here, that'd be great,
but if not, I'll try to run and go get him.
(10:19):
So sure enough, there was only like one store that
had them, and of course it had to be like
a designer store. And I'm not someone who spends money
on shoes. Oh like maybe spent two hundred, two hundred
and fifty bucks. I'm like a nice part of dress shoes,
but you're in Vegas. Yeah, So I basically walk over.
As I'm walking over, the bottom blows out of these things.
(10:41):
I'm basically barefoot now, which is not the first time.
Probably someone was there. Bottom blew out, the bottom blew
out of it because it was like glued on at
this point.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Williams, Oh, pretty much.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
And so I'm sitting there walking through the wind like
shop area like in my saw in a black tuxedo.
And I finally go to the store and I just
I walked right in and was like, hi, I was
I think Anna was supposed to be grabbing these some
shoes and they're like, okay, well do you like this?
I go, I don't care about any style. I go,
I need something that matches with this, and I need
(11:14):
it like right now. And so they brought out like
six pairs and fortunately like one fit, paid way too
much for it, and then went back and was able
to get in the car in time to not let anyone.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
Know what was happening.
Speaker 6 (11:25):
So you're not going to let them in on what
the tag was, huh it was? It was one hundred
percent over one thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
It was. That was actually not I know you had,
I basically had. It was.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
I didn't even look after tax, so it might have
been after tax, but bro, it was I was like
this place, man, this Vegas place, they'll get you no
matter what is.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
You can try winning money. They will find ways of
like flightstill dollars for some shoes. Dude. It was eight
hundred and eighty bucks. Oh yeah, man.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
But the thing is, like, what was I going to do?
Walk my socks rest tonight? Like I literally the lady goes, oh,
do you want me to give you a box to put.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
Your other shoes in?
Speaker 5 (12:02):
I go, oh, they're right there in the trash can,
like they're they're They're done. I have no options, Like
this is it. I had sneakers on, well, so I
was trying to get sneakers. They didn't have any of
my size. Yeah I had something and by the way,
I had some dressed clothes sneak. It was.
Speaker 6 (12:17):
It was fair Gama, which like, yeah, yeah, you got lucky. Bro. Honestly,
I'm here Gamo in Vegas. You got lucky eight hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
That's that's what. Uh, that's what everyone kind of said.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
My story, though, should have been more expensive, maybe cheap asked,
then way more.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Yeah, but I mean, but you are Brady Quinn too.
But I will say this, I will say this. You
said you didn't bring up or get the chance to
holler at Puzz. If there's one dude that I might
say that, well, if I if I had to choose,
I don't know who I could choose between. If I said,
if I could come back and be that guy, I
(12:55):
don't if I look like that. If I could come
back and be that guy, always say Brady Quinn. I
was reminded the last few times I've seen Puzz, that's
a that's a super Now that's a superhero right there too.
Bro oh, man, that is one good looking dude. Man,
that is a good looking dude. Bruh, Hey, you take
(13:17):
it however you want to take it. I don't get down.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
But I'm still upsetting I didn't get to say hot
to him and congratulated that was one of them.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Man.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Outside of the dinner we had and seeing some of
the folks at Fox, that was one of my biggest
motivations was was seeing him.
Speaker 6 (13:31):
Well, I'll make sure I let him know, man, but
what a what a good dude.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
I just love me. I can't get over with the no.
Two pros and a couple of Joe.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
I mean, I didn't even hear it, so I didn't
I didn't hear what the intro was.
Speaker 5 (13:42):
I mean, here's here's the only thing I'll say, not
in your defense. Every single other player that like came
up with some sort of superlative did not have anything
in regards to what they're doing professionally or anything. You
one that that's a part of it, all right, two
proso is in no way shape.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
But do you want to know why that is? Let
me give you the inside scoop on why you do
content for them. That's why.
Speaker 6 (14:07):
That's why they're pushing it. They're pushing the fact that
they're doing content. Now, I'm just.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Letting you know.
Speaker 6 (14:13):
And I don't want to help launch that. That that's
all that was, man, That's that's all that was. And
I didn't know that Shanks is now part of the
he's on the committee on the board, like he's on
the board. I saw Kevin Plank. Kevin Plank is on
the board, so that I mean that, you know, you know,
I got it. I didn't hear the introduction as to
(14:35):
what they said about me. First and foremost, I was
too busy fan boying. I fanboy out, like I don't
know if people understand this, but when we get an
opportunity to get get there, I'm sitting there. And one
thing that really still kind of throws me for like
the biggest, biggest, like like kicking the head, is when
(14:56):
you watch something growing up in particular, like inspecific, like
and you can remember because of how amazing the moment was,
you can remember where you were, what you were doing,
and how it all played out, and you get to
hear the people who were there, like the main like
(15:18):
the person that was the person tell the story. I
fan boyed out seeing Tommy Fraser, man like I was
with I would staying. I spent a lot of time
with with Marcus Allen and Ronnie Lot. They're like the twins.
Like them, dudes are like Thicket Steven.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
Mark Send doesn't age the exact same and.
Speaker 6 (15:35):
Bro, look, he is as smooth as day one, still
as smooth as day one. Bro, that is one smooth
dude right there.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
Man.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
But Tommy Fraser, I'm like, dang, like I always love
bringing up the Orange Bowl.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
He wrapped my heart out.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
I was I was a diehard Hurricanes fan. Man, he
was telling you ass and spit him out.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
And you know Zach Zach Wiegert is my that's when
he's my class. He's twenty two on. Can we pause
for a second. So Jonas's favorite teams just to list them.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
Off, Okay, yeah, there you go, come on, Boston Celtics,
the Pittsburgh Penguins, that's a rumor too. That's you like
the Chicago Bears, which during his childhood or adolescents, there
was the eighty five Bears, which pretty much everyone compares,
you know, the best defenses to the Hurricanes.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
No, it was you are the biggest.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Don't don't You're the wagon fan of sports I've ever
heard of. So when I was a kid, there were
teams that I like. I just like the logos. I
liked how because I'm a child? What is what is
even the logo? What is the log the Cubs? The
Cubs is the only respectable one where you actually.
Speaker 4 (16:54):
Endure the year?
Speaker 6 (16:56):
Why?
Speaker 4 (16:57):
Why?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Because I've had to wear it for for all my life.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Yeah, you actually won one. Eventually.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
I'm just saying, through your childhood, you didn't actually root
for a team that won.
Speaker 6 (17:04):
In baseball well, the point is you were walking around
putting you up with your hands.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
No, I didn't know what that was back then, but
I just remember Geno Toretta, all those guys and when
they when they played Nebraska.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
Of course the Italian Yeah, everybody wanted to see I
don't know. I felt like back then the game was
like basically it was almost like, you know, convicts versus Catholics.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Because that was Corey.
Speaker 6 (17:30):
If you were if you were of a if you
were of the Catholic persuasion, you wanted to see Nebraska win.
If you were of a convict persuasion, you wanted Miami
to win.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
What do you get that.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
I'm just staying the T shirt for this the first
playoff game, Catholics versus Cigarettes.
Speaker 6 (17:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we talked about Yeah, we talked about it.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
I haven't seen the T shirt though. It's great.
Speaker 6 (17:54):
Why is that where cigarettes come from?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
This signetti?
Speaker 5 (18:04):
But I think like they all have the Marlborough logo.
People were making with shirts that just said sig So
that's where it came from.
Speaker 6 (18:13):
I believe during the season, you know, he's got the
red ass man he does.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
He's like, he's like he feels like he's got a
point to prove. Man.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
Well, yeah, he was saying like, hey, we should be
hosting the game. It's like, well, all right, I mean
we'll see, We'll see.
Speaker 6 (18:28):
You guys are playing real well right now? Man, Yeah,
that's going to be a good game. It's gonna be
a great atmosphere. I fortunately get to go to a
couple of great games.
Speaker 5 (18:38):
That night next Friday, and then obviously the Ohio State
Tennessee game as well, So.
Speaker 6 (18:42):
That's going to be a throttle. I can't wait to
see that. It's going to be some great football. I
think I might even stay home.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Man.
Speaker 6 (18:49):
I've been like debating if I'm going to go to
State College or not. What I just I just feel
like I need to be in a place where I
can be situated to to watch the way I want
to watch.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
This is never happened before. You gotta be I'm the
first time effort.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
You fly across the country the whole entire year, you're
not going to go to this one?
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Well, I guess maybe y'all decided.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
And I like, of all of the like playoff games
in this round, I would say, is that the biggest
spread is it?
Speaker 4 (19:19):
Don't I think it is. I want to say it's
four or four and a half. It could be off
efforting I got.
Speaker 6 (19:24):
I gotta say though, man, like I got as drunk
as drunk is in Vegas, and maybe I just have
to continue to like get myself reset. I get a week,
I get the rest of this week to kind of
reset my myself. But man, that was a rough trip
for me, Like when I traveled back, like when I
woke up and had to get on my airplane, which,
(19:44):
by the way, the security gates.
Speaker 5 (19:48):
Eight and a half points. By the way, it's not
the largest, but it's the second largest.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
That's pretty that's pretty large.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I mean, if you had to sit through U c
l A, the least you could do is go back
for this one.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
I had to.
Speaker 6 (19:58):
I was there for you say like, yeah, wasn't all
that entertaining. I'll tell you this, I won't be on
the sideline. I'm going straight to the sweets because it's
going to be freezing. For reason, man, I still can't believe.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
LeVar what no two pros and a couple of jem
I did not know what.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
I had no idea what they were reading or what
they were saying, had no input in it.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
I'm just just letting y'all know.
Speaker 5 (20:26):
I feel bad for my boy Matt signed though, because
he's got to read through the whole deal. How many
former guys were there? Was it like one hundred h
not quite that many, it was. It was a lot though, Yeah,
it was a lot. There were a lot these just
read through all these names. And that's after he does
(20:46):
all the players who are there that night.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
And mad guy, so I was.
Speaker 6 (20:50):
He probably did more with me because I spend so
much time with him. Man, that's like, that's my guy.
So I was with him all day. You know, I
got you. I'm just saying you could a given. I
got politics going on. Man, I've been and you're one
of the guys I've been politicking for pa work well,
another one I've been politicking for.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
You know. That was the thing. It's like some of
these guys like work done. I'm like, work done wasn't long.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
Yeah, yeah, it's like some of those guys you see
Larry Fitzgerald exactly, Like I was like, dang, really, I
was like, and again, I don't know all what goes
into it. Like when you see guys like Danny wood
Ed or I'm on Edwards, You're like, all right, like.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Like you sitting there like where I'm at, Brady, I'm not.
I'm not sitting there thinking that.
Speaker 5 (21:34):
I'm thinking at the same time as Larry Fitzgerald. And
you know, like like others that I played was a
hell of a class man.
Speaker 4 (21:42):
Julius Peppers.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
Yeah, it's the same thing, like Julius Peppers. I'm like,
why is I'm like all these guys I'm like, or
Tim Couch, Like Tim Couch is already in.
Speaker 6 (21:51):
Yeah, he's a good looking dude too, man, God dang.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
And you know, the.
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Best though, was Hutchinson. Steve Hutchinson. Now, so you know,
we great. You know, we hated each other.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
I know, I know, but I'm saying, like he slimmed
down here. He is awesome.
Speaker 6 (22:08):
You wouldn't even know he's that guy. Yeah, you wouldn't
even know who is Who's that good looking guy?
Speaker 4 (22:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (22:14):
Right, Like Steve Hutchess was like, damn, man, hutch looks good.
Speaker 6 (22:17):
He was walking we were at the after like we
were drinking afterwards and hanging out and he was walking by.
I was like, I looked at him. I was like, hey,
we're good. He looked at me. And he's like, yeah,
we're good. I was like, all right, man, I was like,
I know I hate you and I know you hate me.
I was like, but you know we're on the same
team now. I was like, so, I guess we got
(22:38):
a beary to hatchet and I gotta love you now
and you gotta love me. So let's just get over it.
And we gave each other a big ass hug and
we started we all started having laughs and started talking.
So that was a great moment because we had some battles.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
I mean, we were.
Speaker 6 (22:55):
Battling from from Michigan and Penn State to him being
in Sea. Every time we played it was I mean,
we had some down right, outright, straight up wars me
and him like him and I like it was it
(23:15):
was a hate. It was like he's one. There's like
there's like a couple players that I had a handful
of that I like, legitimately I hated them. And he
was on my list, and I know I was on
his because I could tell by the way he came
after me that that we were on that list. And
I could tell by the way like I would see
him and we would see each other. We never spoke,
We never did anything like it was like on site
(23:38):
type of hate with me and him, and we buried
the hatchet in Vegas, which was really cool. Shows it
shows age. I said, listen, we don't play no more.
Like I went through the whole thing because that's how
bad it was, Like I went through the whole thing,
like I know, we don't play no more. This is
not an on field thing, like like hey man, we're good,
(23:58):
like I'm good with you, Like really my hate was
really wrapped into being a fan of how how hard
you played and how how good you were. And he
went he went to give me a hug. I went
to give him a hug, and then we shook hands.
And when he went to shake my hand with his
right hand, he didn't have on his because you know,
you put your ring on, you put your Hall of
Fame ring on. He didn't have his college Hall of
(24:19):
Fame ring on. He had his pro Hall of Fame
ring on, and it looks very different from the college one.
And I was like, yeah, f you man went right
back to hating him.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
A few hutch Yeah, two pros and a cup of Joe.
Here on Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn Jonas
Knox with you. We are going to have in case
you missed it, coming up later on this hour. We've
got Lee's leftovers to close up shop all yours here
on this three hour extravaganza. Coming up next here though
a move that a lot of people didn't think it
was actually gonna happen in the world of football.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
It is just about done. What it means. We'll get
into that for you right here on FSR.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
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
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio.
LaVar Arringt did go to Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
With you here, Proud of you man, you made up
for it.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
By the way.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Coming up and we'll call it about fifteen minutes from
now here from the tiraq dot Com studios, we are
going to tell you about somebody who got a little
emotional in the NFL and maybe there was multiple reasons
for that. We'll have that discussion for you here on FSR. Guys,
you were talking about the College Football Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
If he does well enough, maybe Bill Belichick will be
in the College Football Hall of Fame at some point.
Because I'll be honest with you, when the subject come up,
I didn't think it was a real possibility. I just
thought it was his names in the mix, and he
wants to let everybody know that he's serious about coaching again.
But as it was told, Allie Connolly of The Guardian
was all over this from the get go. Belichick agrees
(26:06):
to reportedly a five year deal and he's going to
be the new head coach at North Carolina. Did not
see congratulations, did not see this happening here we go?
Speaker 1 (26:16):
What does this.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Mean for North Carolina in the sense that did because
basically the way it was laid out is Belichick presented
them this is how I'm taking the job. Mike Lombardi
has already been now the name the GM at North Carolina.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Right, it's kind of wild, man, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
I think there's so many layers to this. I mean,
how many games is he from overcoming Don Show's record is.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
Like fifteen or something.
Speaker 5 (26:41):
Yeah, I believe to think that, like you wouldn't want
to take at seventy two years old, mind you. North
Carolina moved on from Mac Brown who's seventy three, and
hired Bill Belichick, who's seventy two. Now maybe they look
at back Brown and say, well, you feel like Bill
Belichick's a pretty surprise seventy two year old. This data
(27:01):
twenty four year old.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
So he's got a lot of juice left in him.
He gonna get out there on campus, getting the date
he could recruit. We know that.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
I think there's that element of it which teams will
use against him in recruiting. However, this to me is
more about not his legacy. It's about Steve Belichick.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
You know.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
I think as he looks at the landscape and says,
I want to take over a situation where I know
I can give my son an opportunity to come in,
be the defensive coordinator, work with my son in my
final years of coaching, and be able to then pass
that torch.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Along to him. As long as that's.
Speaker 5 (27:38):
You know what the agreement is on the way in,
and I'm I mean contractually they make that work somehow,
But that is what I think this has to do
with more than anything else.
Speaker 4 (27:48):
And I also would say for a lot of the
naysayers who are.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
Like, why would an NFL coach want to go to
college because it's never as close to the NFL game
as it's ever been, then right now, if you look
at the fact that he's already got Michael Lombardi coming
in to be as general manager, you tell me what
college program is going to have a more sophisticated way
of evaluating talent and transfer.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
That's what's about to happen.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
High school student evaluation, which, mind you, all of these
guys like like Lombardi knows this. There's so many players
they look at back to their high school days, do
background reference to their high school days, and they'll go, well,
this guy was a five star. What happened in college?
Why didn't he turn out to be that guy? And
he ends up being a third fourth round pick maybe,
(28:31):
And yet they still go back then and say, well,
clearly the size, athleticism talents there, there's some disconnect made.
Was the scheme, it was the coaching staff, maybe it
was some personal things off the field. They dig into
every player they go get so it's not like you
know them looking at the high school recruiting profiles is
foreign to them.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
They've done it. They do it all the time. They
did it for years when they're in the NFL.
Speaker 5 (28:53):
So this is an opportunity for Bill Belichick to come
into the college game at a time where it's never
been closer to the NFL the way they have their
revenue share and essentially.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
Kind of a salary cap.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
I think a lot of people probably look at it
and go, Yeah, how's a place like North Carolina going
to compete in nil and all these other things.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
It's like, well, I.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
Would actually argue that because there's not as many rules
governing around what you can do that you have a
huge advantage to have someone like Bill Belichick there who
could be creative with how he goes about utilizing the
money he has. I mean, the NFL, they're all playing
by the same rules in the salary cap, so you
have to be kind of creative and figure out how
(29:34):
to make it work there.
Speaker 4 (29:35):
In some years, you just don't have as much cap.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
Space, and college is kind of the lat alied West still,
so until there's more guardrails around it, he probably looks
at that not as a detriment, but as an opportunity
on how they're gonna make this work.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
And I think the last thing I would.
Speaker 5 (29:50):
Say that probably like I you talked about that the
NFL pipeline, I think that's real. I think when they
walk into the room and he shows you all these
Super Bowl rings and that's gonna at home. I mean
outside of making money, which they'll have to share with
players and they'll be able to allocate.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
What else do you want as a player? You want
to go play in the NFL and.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
You're gonna have a guy who's gonna have the highest
recommendation of anything. Do you know who the number two
Kennedy was for this head coaching job? Who was Tommy Rees?
Who's up with the Cleveland Browns? He interviewed a couple
of times. He would have been the guy if not
for Bill Belichick. Do you know who was the biggest
advocate for Tommy Rees?
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Who? Nick Saban? So when you think.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
About how big like a Nick Saban or a Bill Belichick,
how big their word carries.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
Think about all these players who are.
Speaker 5 (30:36):
Gonna have the stamp of approval from a Bill Belichick
with all these NFL franchising teams.
Speaker 6 (30:43):
I think, first and foremost Bill Belichick is going to
have more fun than he's ever had in his tire
coaching career. I think that's first and foremost, because I
just I think that there's the level of pressure that
comes with being an NFL coach. There's just a lot
that's connected to it. That's that's first and foremost. That's
(31:06):
that's first opinion. But then I look at the setup,
all of all of it. And he said it when
when he did his interview, he said, if I get
the resources necessary, this could be a very attractive job.
You mentioned Q during your your explanation in terms of well,
(31:27):
will will North Carolina be able to compete in the
NIL space? Well, people would have said, would Colorado have
been able to compete in the NIL space? And look
at what Dion's done. And I'll say this, and when
you're talking about businesses and resources that can come to
you in terms of putting your dollars behind something and
(31:48):
and and you know whether it be AD dollars, whether
it be just getting behind whatever it is you're getting
behind business wise, I can guarantee you Bill Belichick has
a ton his rolodex of companies out there that would
pour into what he's doing. There's a ton of them
because they probably have all paid them to come in
and talk to their companies and corporations. He's got a
(32:10):
ton of them, so he's not going to be short
in resources to be able to bring to the NIL space.
Now you bring in a great evaluator in Lombardi, You're
going to structure this thing. College football now has to
be structured like a professional franchise. It has to be.
(32:30):
It just has to be because that's where it's all going.
Bill Belichick gets a unique opportunity to do it at
the front end of what NIL is doing in the
transfer portal is doing to college football and the realignments
and everything that's going on. So for him to have
an opportunity to bring that structure, who's going to have
(32:50):
a better infrastructure for a professional team and how that
should look at the college level than Bill Belichick? I
would say the one thing that also came to mind
that I wonder, but now you got to worry about
the academics, like all the football aspects of it, the recruitment,
all those different things. I think those things will all
(33:11):
work themselves out. But as it applies to what does
it look like? Will he you know, do you just
get staff to be able to handle certain things that
you didn't have to, Like, you don't have to worry
about if guys are on time for class. You gotta
worry about if they're on time for meetings, you know
what I mean? Like, does he treat that the same
(33:32):
way the guy's struggling in the good?
Speaker 5 (33:36):
What's talking about? A guy who dealt with some off
the field stuff with some of these players?
Speaker 4 (33:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (33:40):
I think I think guys, well North Carolina is that
is true. I mean, it is a high academic standard there.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
But I just don't get did you kill anybody?
Speaker 4 (33:52):
No?
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Are you're good? You start a tight end for us.
Speaker 4 (33:55):
I think that's where you're going with it. Dang tang?
Do you murder him?
Speaker 1 (34:02):
No, coach, you're good.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
I guess you're right. I guess. I mean, it's not
like you're going to Miami or anything.
Speaker 6 (34:10):
My job.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
I'm joking, that's a joke.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
I can't wait to see how it works out.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
And I do find it interesting that you've seen coaches
like Gus Malzon, you know, wants to be a coordinator,
Kelly wanted to be a coordinator. Jeff Hafley left and
went to be a coordinator in the NFL, they were
all head coaches, and Belichick's like, no, I'll go do that,
like I'll go be a part of that world. Like
I just I like the fact that he already had
a structure in place and the fact that he gets
(34:38):
to do it his way. And he probably looked around
in the NFL and was like, I don't think I'm
gonna have that opportunity here. And if I can set
my son up, why not make the jump?
Speaker 5 (34:45):
Do you want me to give you the last kicker
in all this? If you're the head coach of an
NFL franchise, one of the biggest difficulties is the power
struggle with the general manager, right, Like, sometimes the general
manager is the director report. Sometimes he's you know, the
owner's guy, or it's the owner. Right there's the owner
that you have to battle with in regards to how
(35:06):
much money you're spending in free agency and how you're structuring,
et cetera, and even like stadium upgrades all that stuff.
When you are the head coach in a college program
and there's multiple programs in that state. But he's getting
ten million a year in this deal. He's one of
the highest paid employees in the state. If you think
about that, like, go look at Ohio State. Does anyone
(35:28):
get paid more in the state of Ohio. That would
be kind of like a state employee than Ryan Day.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
No.
Speaker 5 (35:33):
So you have so much more power and control and
autonomy than people realize as compared to constantly having to
answer to a owner, to a or battle with a
general manager. You're trying to undercut you. That's the other
thing when you talk about control. Some people would say,
like the last dictators in the United States are college
football coach.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
They are not lying. Yeah, well I know this. If
you want us to tell you the truth, gotta get
you a burner, ain't that right?
Speaker 6 (36:02):
Get you that burner. And you know what's the best
offense to have a great defense. So if you don't
want to play around with your personal safety, family safety
being your priority, make it your priority, make it everybody's priority,
and let them know about burners.
Speaker 4 (36:16):
You know why.
Speaker 6 (36:17):
It's less lethal pistol launchers, all right, And you could
get one of them and get ten percent off. All
you gotta do is go to burner by r NA
dot com slash LeVar to go get you one. Hey,
pull that trigger man and feel good about take care
of your business.
Speaker 4 (36:34):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (36:35):
You ain't got to worry about killing them. You just
gotta worry about incapacitating them.
Speaker 4 (36:39):
You know.
Speaker 6 (36:39):
That's the way I live my life. Yeah, I pull
that burner out, you know what I mean. Things get
get the going incapacitated for about forty minutes.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
I am really gonna do this.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
I'm really going to do this.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe here, Fox Sports

Good more than everybody.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Good morning, Jonas, Good morning, Bretty, Good morning LeVar.
Speaker 8 (38:04):
Hey guys, and Casey missed the story where Joe Burrow's
house was burglarized during Monday night football. And hey Brady,
Casey missed that story where Joe Burrow's house is burglary
during Monday night football while he was playing versus Dallas.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Joe Burrow had a chance to address the story yesterday.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
Take a listen.
Speaker 9 (38:20):
So obviously everybody has heard what has happened. I feel
like my privacy has been violated in more ways than one,
and way more is already out there than I would
want out there, and that I care to share. So
that's all I got to say about that. You know,
we live a public life, and you know, one of
(38:40):
my least favorite parts.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
Of that is the lack of.
Speaker 9 (38:43):
Privacy, and that has been difficult for me to deal
with my entire career. Still learning, but I understand it's
the life that we choose doesn't make it any any
easier to deal with.
Speaker 1 (38:57):
Why is he emotional because the mighty I caught.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
Well you mean caught.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
You can't get caught if somebody violates your prophecy.
Speaker 4 (39:06):
Yeah, I mean, I mean I would say this. It's
gotta be tough for a lot of those nowadays. Man.
I mean it's funny.
Speaker 5 (39:12):
There is a social media that came up on Instagram
that like shows the location of his house. You know,
I don't know why. I know people want to do
the whole subbody houses thing, but it's it's a scary
proposition to thing, like everyone knows where you live at
and they sure usc know when you're not gonna be there,
especially when there's a NFL schedule.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
So I got a big ass dog. I'll always keep
a big ass dog. He's going to get you. I
tell you. My guys are trying to get you. They'll
get you. You come up in.
Speaker 4 (39:43):
There, they let you in, They look at you and
lick their face.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
Like, hey, come on in, come pet me da da da.
Speaker 6 (39:50):
Give me a piece of steak. Nah, bro, you're gonna
be the steak. You're gonna be that steak, damn. Or
you're gonna do something that's going to get you caught
because you're gonna have to shoot him. You don't have
to do something unless you know how to use a knife,
but you still might take an al. Anyway, I'm curious
as to why he's so upset about the violation part.
(40:10):
I mean, I know, I know violating you breaking into
your house is not going to be something that you
should be happy and okay with. I just wonder it
was that somebody like it's something going to pop up online.
Is there is there you know I found this in
his bedroom or you know there was a room I
(40:31):
got pictures of a room that was in the house.
I don't you know, I don't know, huh, or who
was in the room, yeah, or what was in the
room that's not who's could have been a what?
Speaker 1 (40:44):
All those are important questions, especially nowadays.
Speaker 6 (40:47):
You know that would suck to like, get out it
in some shape, form or fashion, if that were the
way it were to happen.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
Though, That's all I'm saying. Listen Joe, and hope that
doesn't happen.

up getting a big ass hug from from coach none
other than Urban Meyer.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
You know.
Speaker 6 (02:27):
It gives me a big, big ass hug. He's like,
you see, little Bro, I said, little Bro? I said,
what do you mean?
Speaker 4 (02:35):
What do you mean?
Speaker 6 (02:36):
Like, did you see Brady? I mean, I said, Brady,
what do you mean you know Brady's here?
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Is it really?
Speaker 6 (02:47):
And I didn't know? And I don't see him. I
haven't seen him. He's like, I think those guys I
think they left. I said they left. I said, but
you're saying they were in here, like they were here?
Yeah I was.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
I was. So that's the extent of it. So here
we go.
Speaker 5 (03:02):
Let's go hit my side of the story. This is
not gonna end well for one LaVar Arrington. So first off,
I did not know LeVar was going to be at
the same dinner we were at. Now, granted for the
listeners out there, the National Football Foundation, which selects the
College Football Hall of Fame, there is how many how
many people would you guess is in that ball like
(03:22):
six seven hundred.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
I mean it's it is. It's a very very.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Big ballroom at the Bellagio, and you see basically everyone
that's in the college football world to some degree.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
There's like pieces of everyone.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
Right, Like I saw Dan Mullen and now putting two
and two together because he just accepted the UNLV head
coaching job. It's like, oh, now I understand why Dan
Mullen was there. But you see commissioners of every you
know conference, not just powerful to who's who went there for.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
Right, It's a it's a big group.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
So as you're trying to kind of make your way
to however many of the hundreds of tables, and so
I think we're at like table one, twenty five or
whatever it was. I was unaware, completely unaware that LaVar
was even there. You know, I wasn't able to do
the show with traveling and other stuff and other commitments.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
So I wasn't even I wasn't even aware the LaVar
was there.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
Until they go through the announcement of the players who
are up for awards on the stage that night, and
then they go through this long procession, which, I'll be
honest with you, it was a little bit odd because
I think every guy keeps handing Matt's side of note LeVar.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
Yeah, so you gotta give him as your name right right.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Which is which is like, come on, let's like, let's
give Matt something else to be able to read from
instead of you guys handing him a slip every time.
But I digress because we weren't walks out and I
was like, well, I didn't know Leavar was even gonna
be here, all right, Like it's such a packed room
of people.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
I didn't know.
Speaker 5 (04:56):
However, when they did Lvar's intro, they did not mention
two pros and a cup of Joe as part of it.
But they did mention the up on Game Network.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Did they really? Oh they did, LeVar. I didn't know that,
mind you.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
LeVar is the only person who was live streaming from
the second he walked out to taking a picture with
Matt sign to.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Then walking all the way down the line up with all.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
The other former or current Hall of famers, uh you know,
form or whatever.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Past weeks. Yeah, yeah, and it's still live.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
I watched the whole thing that my god, dude, like
stop doing No one else is doing this but you
right now, exactly.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
So and so on.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
The note of Urban Urban was there. He went though
with the Utah crowd for Alex Smith because that was
his quarterback. When is it Utah? So I saw Urban
for a minute. Uh game, A hug game, a slap
on the ass, that was it. And then I then
I was with the Fox folks and we had a
step a dinner that was set up kind of after it,
(06:04):
so we went for a portion and then we we
left afterwards and kind of had a separate dinner. So
I didn't get to see if I didn't see anyone beforehand,
I didn't see anyone, definitely obviously durning it because I
could get up and talk to a bunch of people
during the whole thing. But once I saw you, then
I was like, crap, I'm not going able to say
out to LeVar. I never even got to see Paul
puts Lesnie, who I played against. We trained together for
(06:25):
a little bit in Arizona. I was really excited for him.
I was excited for Alex, so I know a little
bit saw his dad. Awesome event. However, I want to
make sure Jonas hears this again, two pros and a
cup of Joe was not mentioned.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Once that's up on game. I didn't hear what he said.
I didn't know you did. I did because I was
sitting there, and I did literally table not on me.
He didn't put two pros and a couple of jokes
on me. I don't know. This seems like you're being
blameless right now.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
I'm just saying I had no idea what they were saying,
and I just gave.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Him my name. You sound a like Jonas there, my
name is on the call? Who did this show solo yesterday?
Is doing solo show Saturday?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Yeah, and listen.
Speaker 5 (07:07):
Also also, I did get a question from Klatt who goes, hey, man,
what's up of you guys talking about me on your
show so much? I go, well, it's a little bit
of a turf war between you and Jonas because he
feels like he's had JKS for a while and now
you did the whole Joel Clatt show, and it's just
it's a battle right now. I was like, he's battling
with you for the rights to Jake ass.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Now.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
I'm not totally offended by Levar's move, not mentioning our
show because that's what they're going with. Well, because as
a you know, as the main filling for up on
game like, I can't be outraged too much because you know,
the main feeling.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
That is part of my part of my credential.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Wait real quick, so when you need to fill in,
Jonas is the guy you go to. I mean I
would trust, I trust the show, of course you do.
Speaker 5 (07:52):
Yeah, okay, can I can I tell you guys something
incredibly embarrassing that happened?
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Good?
Speaker 5 (07:59):
So it was it was black tie, which I will
say this, LeVar, not really black tie.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
The outfit. I was a little disappointed.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Good for you, I hate you.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Thank you. Well, it's not even that didn't even wear
a jacket, did you.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
I had a jacket of yeah, okay, all right, I
couldn't tell from where where a table was. But so anyway,
I haven't worked one a tuxedo probably since the last
time I went to this exact event. It when I
was back in New York. So that's how long it's been,
because it's been in Vegas now for at least what
five years? Yeah, so I haven't worn tuxedo shoes that
(08:34):
I've got that I've worn maybe twice in my life.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Maybe five six years ago and then ten years ago.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Right, So I put on my tucks and I go downstairs,
and as I'm walking to go meet one of our
executives at Fox, I'm warning these tuxedo shoes, I feel
like I like stepped on something like kind of metal
or something. I kind of look back, there's like this
metal strip.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
On the ground. I was like, no, that's weird.
Speaker 5 (08:59):
And I take a few more steps and literally the
bottom sole of my right shoe falls off, like the
whole thing, and so I like turn back and look,
and fortunately, like not many people were really around me,
and I like went back.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
I looked at I was like, what the hell?
Speaker 5 (09:16):
So I pick it up, I walk over the trash
can I throw it away, And I'm thinking, all right,
I guess I'm gonna like wear one shoe without a
sole and the other one's gonna be fine, and it's
gonna feel like a slipper. So as I'm walking again
closer to the bar and our executive at.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
I sit down and I show him, like, dude, I
sole my shoe fell off.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
I could look and as I look at my other one,
it's already halfway off, so I literally pull I rip
it off, and then I'm looking at these tuxedo shoes.
I'm like, dude, these are not going to hold up
if I have to walk out to like anywhere, a
car in the ballroom table, these things are gonna fall apart.
They're like glorified slippers at this point. So it's five o'clock.
(09:57):
We're trying to leave by five thirty and our president's coming.
So I'm like, all right, I can't be late, don't
want to be I don't want to I want to
put my best foot forward. So I run into the
concierge and' like, hey, is there any places that have
like a fourteen fifteen like dress shoe size? I was like, please,
here's my number. Please like call me back sou as
it can. If they can bring him here, that'd be great,
but if not, I'll try to run and go get him.
(10:19):
So sure enough, there was only like one store that
had them, and of course it had to be like
a designer store. And I'm not someone who spends money
on shoes. Oh like maybe spent two hundred, two hundred
and fifty bucks. I'm like a nice part of dress shoes,
but you're in Vegas. Yeah, So I basically walk over.
As I'm walking over, the bottom blows out of these things.
(10:41):
I'm basically barefoot now, which is not the first time.
Probably someone was there. Bottom blew out, the bottom blew
out of it because it was like glued on at
this point.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Williams, Oh, pretty much.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
And so I'm sitting there walking through the wind like
shop area like in my saw in a black tuxedo.
And I finally go to the store and I just
I walked right in and was like, hi, I was
I think Anna was supposed to be grabbing these some
shoes and they're like, okay, well do you like this?
I go, I don't care about any style. I go,
I need something that matches with this, and I need
(11:14):
it like right now. And so they brought out like
six pairs and fortunately like one fit, paid way too
much for it, and then went back and was able
to get in the car in time to not let anyone.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
Know what was happening.
Speaker 6 (11:25):
So you're not going to let them in on what
the tag was, huh it was? It was one hundred
percent over one thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
It was. That was actually not I know you had,
I basically had. It was.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
I didn't even look after tax, so it might have
been after tax, but bro, it was I was like
this place, man, this Vegas place, they'll get you no
matter what is.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
You can try winning money. They will find ways of
like flightstill dollars for some shoes. Dude. It was eight
hundred and eighty bucks. Oh yeah, man.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
But the thing is, like, what was I going to do?
Walk my socks rest tonight? Like I literally the lady goes, oh,
do you want me to give you a box to put.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
Your other shoes in?
Speaker 5 (12:02):
I go, oh, they're right there in the trash can,
like they're they're They're done. I have no options, Like
this is it. I had sneakers on, well, so I
was trying to get sneakers. They didn't have any of
my size. Yeah I had something and by the way,
I had some dressed clothes sneak. It was.
Speaker 6 (12:17):
It was fair Gama, which like, yeah, yeah, you got lucky. Bro. Honestly,
I'm here Gamo in Vegas. You got lucky eight hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
That's that's what. Uh, that's what everyone kind of said.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
My story, though, should have been more expensive, maybe cheap asked,
then way more.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Yeah, but I mean, but you are Brady Quinn too.
But I will say this, I will say this. You
said you didn't bring up or get the chance to
holler at Puzz. If there's one dude that I might
say that, well, if I if I had to choose,
I don't know who I could choose between. If I said,
if I could come back and be that guy, I
(12:55):
don't if I look like that. If I could come
back and be that guy, always say Brady Quinn. I
was reminded the last few times I've seen Puzz, that's
a that's a super Now that's a superhero right there too.
Bro oh, man, that is one good looking dude. Man,
that is a good looking dude. Bruh, Hey, you take
(13:17):
it however you want to take it. I don't get down.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
But I'm still upsetting I didn't get to say hot
to him and congratulated that was one of them.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Man.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Outside of the dinner we had and seeing some of
the folks at Fox, that was one of my biggest
motivations was was seeing him.
Speaker 6 (13:31):
Well, I'll make sure I let him know, man, but
what a what a good dude.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
I just love me. I can't get over with the no.
Two pros and a couple of Joe.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
I mean, I didn't even hear it, so I didn't
I didn't hear what the intro was.
Speaker 5 (13:42):
I mean, here's here's the only thing I'll say, not
in your defense. Every single other player that like came
up with some sort of superlative did not have anything
in regards to what they're doing professionally or anything. You
one that that's a part of it, all right, two
proso is in no way shape.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
But do you want to know why that is? Let
me give you the inside scoop on why you do
content for them. That's why.
Speaker 6 (14:07):
That's why they're pushing it. They're pushing the fact that
they're doing content. Now, I'm just.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Letting you know.
Speaker 6 (14:13):
And I don't want to help launch that. That that's
all that was, man, That's that's all that was. And
I didn't know that Shanks is now part of the
he's on the committee on the board, like he's on
the board. I saw Kevin Plank. Kevin Plank is on
the board, so that I mean that, you know, you know,
I got it. I didn't hear the introduction as to
(14:35):
what they said about me. First and foremost, I was
too busy fan boying. I fanboy out, like I don't
know if people understand this, but when we get an
opportunity to get get there, I'm sitting there. And one
thing that really still kind of throws me for like
the biggest, biggest, like like kicking the head, is when
(14:56):
you watch something growing up in particular, like inspecific, like
and you can remember because of how amazing the moment was,
you can remember where you were, what you were doing,
and how it all played out, and you get to
hear the people who were there, like the main like
(15:18):
the person that was the person tell the story. I
fan boyed out seeing Tommy Fraser, man like I was
with I would staying. I spent a lot of time
with with Marcus Allen and Ronnie Lot. They're like the twins.
Like them, dudes are like Thicket Steven.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
Mark Send doesn't age the exact same and.
Speaker 6 (15:35):
Bro, look, he is as smooth as day one, still
as smooth as day one. Bro, that is one smooth
dude right there.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
Man.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
But Tommy Fraser, I'm like, dang, like I always love
bringing up the Orange Bowl.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
He wrapped my heart out.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
I was I was a diehard Hurricanes fan. Man, he
was telling you ass and spit him out.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
And you know Zach Zach Wiegert is my that's when
he's my class. He's twenty two on. Can we pause
for a second. So Jonas's favorite teams just to list them.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
Off, Okay, yeah, there you go, come on, Boston Celtics,
the Pittsburgh Penguins, that's a rumor too. That's you like
the Chicago Bears, which during his childhood or adolescents, there
was the eighty five Bears, which pretty much everyone compares,
you know, the best defenses to the Hurricanes.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
No, it was you are the biggest.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Don't don't You're the wagon fan of sports I've ever
heard of. So when I was a kid, there were
teams that I like. I just like the logos. I
liked how because I'm a child? What is what is
even the logo? What is the log the Cubs? The
Cubs is the only respectable one where you actually.
Speaker 4 (16:54):
Endure the year?
Speaker 6 (16:56):
Why?
Speaker 4 (16:57):
Why?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Because I've had to wear it for for all my life.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Yeah, you actually won one. Eventually.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
I'm just saying, through your childhood, you didn't actually root
for a team that won.
Speaker 6 (17:04):
In baseball well, the point is you were walking around
putting you up with your hands.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
No, I didn't know what that was back then, but
I just remember Geno Toretta, all those guys and when
they when they played Nebraska.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
Of course the Italian Yeah, everybody wanted to see I
don't know. I felt like back then the game was
like basically it was almost like, you know, convicts versus Catholics.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Because that was Corey.
Speaker 6 (17:30):
If you were if you were of a if you
were of the Catholic persuasion, you wanted to see Nebraska win.
If you were of a convict persuasion, you wanted Miami
to win.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
What do you get that.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
I'm just staying the T shirt for this the first
playoff game, Catholics versus Cigarettes.
Speaker 6 (17:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we talked about Yeah, we talked about it.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
I haven't seen the T shirt though. It's great.
Speaker 6 (17:54):
Why is that where cigarettes come from?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
This signetti?
Speaker 5 (18:04):
But I think like they all have the Marlborough logo.
People were making with shirts that just said sig So
that's where it came from.
Speaker 6 (18:13):
I believe during the season, you know, he's got the
red ass man he does.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
He's like, he's like he feels like he's got a
point to prove. Man.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
Well, yeah, he was saying like, hey, we should be
hosting the game. It's like, well, all right, I mean
we'll see, We'll see.
Speaker 6 (18:28):
You guys are playing real well right now? Man, Yeah,
that's going to be a good game. It's gonna be
a great atmosphere. I fortunately get to go to a
couple of great games.
Speaker 5 (18:38):
That night next Friday, and then obviously the Ohio State
Tennessee game as well, So.
Speaker 6 (18:42):
That's going to be a throttle. I can't wait to
see that. It's going to be some great football. I
think I might even stay home.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Man.
Speaker 6 (18:49):
I've been like debating if I'm going to go to
State College or not. What I just I just feel
like I need to be in a place where I
can be situated to to watch the way I want
to watch.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
This is never happened before. You gotta be I'm the
first time effort.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
You fly across the country the whole entire year, you're
not going to go to this one?
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Well, I guess maybe y'all decided.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
And I like, of all of the like playoff games
in this round, I would say, is that the biggest
spread is it?
Speaker 4 (19:19):
Don't I think it is. I want to say it's
four or four and a half. It could be off
efforting I got.
Speaker 6 (19:24):
I gotta say though, man, like I got as drunk
as drunk is in Vegas, and maybe I just have
to continue to like get myself reset. I get a week,
I get the rest of this week to kind of
reset my myself. But man, that was a rough trip
for me, Like when I traveled back, like when I
woke up and had to get on my airplane, which,
(19:44):
by the way, the security gates.
Speaker 5 (19:48):
Eight and a half points. By the way, it's not
the largest, but it's the second largest.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
That's pretty that's pretty large.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I mean, if you had to sit through U c
l A, the least you could do is go back
for this one.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
I had to.
Speaker 6 (19:58):
I was there for you say like, yeah, wasn't all
that entertaining. I'll tell you this, I won't be on
the sideline. I'm going straight to the sweets because it's
going to be freezing. For reason, man, I still can't believe.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
LeVar what no two pros and a couple of jem
I did not know what.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
I had no idea what they were reading or what
they were saying, had no input in it.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
I'm just just letting y'all know.
Speaker 5 (20:26):
I feel bad for my boy Matt signed though, because
he's got to read through the whole deal. How many
former guys were there? Was it like one hundred h
not quite that many, it was. It was a lot though, Yeah,
it was a lot. There were a lot these just
read through all these names. And that's after he does
(20:46):
all the players who are there that night.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
And mad guy, so I was.
Speaker 6 (20:50):
He probably did more with me because I spend so
much time with him. Man, that's like, that's my guy.
So I was with him all day. You know, I
got you. I'm just saying you could a given. I
got politics going on. Man, I've been and you're one
of the guys I've been politicking for pa work well,
another one I've been politicking for.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
You know. That was the thing. It's like some of
these guys like work done. I'm like, work done wasn't long.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
Yeah, yeah, it's like some of those guys you see
Larry Fitzgerald exactly, Like I was like, dang, really, I
was like, and again, I don't know all what goes
into it. Like when you see guys like Danny wood
Ed or I'm on Edwards, You're like, all right, like.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Like you sitting there like where I'm at, Brady, I'm not.
I'm not sitting there thinking that.
Speaker 5 (21:34):
I'm thinking at the same time as Larry Fitzgerald. And
you know, like like others that I played was a
hell of a class man.
Speaker 4 (21:42):
Julius Peppers.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
Yeah, it's the same thing, like Julius Peppers. I'm like,
why is I'm like all these guys I'm like, or
Tim Couch, Like Tim Couch is already in.
Speaker 6 (21:51):
Yeah, he's a good looking dude too, man, God dang.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
And you know, the.
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Best though, was Hutchinson. Steve Hutchinson. Now, so you know,
we great. You know, we hated each other.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
I know, I know, but I'm saying, like he slimmed
down here. He is awesome.
Speaker 6 (22:08):
You wouldn't even know he's that guy. Yeah, you wouldn't
even know who is Who's that good looking guy?
Speaker 4 (22:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (22:14):
Right, Like Steve Hutchess was like, damn, man, hutch looks good.
Speaker 6 (22:17):
He was walking we were at the after like we
were drinking afterwards and hanging out and he was walking by.
I was like, I looked at him. I was like, hey,
we're good. He looked at me. And he's like, yeah,
we're good. I was like, all right, man, I was like,
I know I hate you and I know you hate me.
I was like, but you know we're on the same
team now. I was like, so, I guess we got
(22:38):
a beary to hatchet and I gotta love you now
and you gotta love me. So let's just get over it.
And we gave each other a big ass hug and
we started we all started having laughs and started talking.
So that was a great moment because we had some battles.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
I mean, we were.
Speaker 6 (22:55):
Battling from from Michigan and Penn State to him being
in Sea. Every time we played it was I mean,
we had some down right, outright, straight up wars me
and him like him and I like it was it
(23:15):
was a hate. It was like he's one. There's like
there's like a couple players that I had a handful
of that I like, legitimately I hated them. And he
was on my list, and I know I was on
his because I could tell by the way he came
after me that that we were on that list. And
I could tell by the way like I would see
him and we would see each other. We never spoke,
We never did anything like it was like on site
(23:38):
type of hate with me and him, and we buried
the hatchet in Vegas, which was really cool. Shows it
shows age. I said, listen, we don't play no more.
Like I went through the whole thing because that's how
bad it was, Like I went through the whole thing,
like I know, we don't play no more. This is
not an on field thing, like like hey man, we're good,
(23:58):
like I'm good with you, Like really my hate was
really wrapped into being a fan of how how hard
you played and how how good you were. And he
went he went to give me a hug. I went
to give him a hug, and then we shook hands.
And when he went to shake my hand with his
right hand, he didn't have on his because you know,
you put your ring on, you put your Hall of
Fame ring on. He didn't have his college Hall of
(24:19):
Fame ring on. He had his pro Hall of Fame
ring on, and it looks very different from the college one.
And I was like, yeah, f you man went right
back to hating him.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
A few hutch Yeah, two pros and a cup of Joe.

Knox with you. We are going to have in case
you missed it, coming up later on this hour. We've
got Lee's leftovers to close up shop all yours here
on this three hour extravaganza. Coming up next here though
a move that a lot of people didn't think it
was actually gonna happen in the world of football.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
It is just about done. What it means. We'll get
into that for you right here on FSR.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
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

LaVar Arringt did go to Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
With you here, Proud of you man, you made up
for it.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
By the way.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Coming up and we'll call it about fifteen minutes from
now here from the tiraq dot Com studios, we are
going to tell you about somebody who got a little
emotional in the NFL and maybe there was multiple reasons
for that. We'll have that discussion for you here on FSR. Guys,
you were talking about the College Football Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
If he does well enough, maybe Bill Belichick will be
in the College Football Hall of Fame at some point.
Because I'll be honest with you, when the subject come up,
I didn't think it was a real possibility. I just
thought it was his names in the mix, and he
wants to let everybody know that he's serious about coaching again.
But as it was told, Allie Connolly of The Guardian
was all over this from the get go. Belichick agrees
(26:06):
to reportedly a five year deal and he's going to
be the new head coach at North Carolina. Did not
see congratulations, did not see this happening here we go?
Speaker 1 (26:16):
What does this.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Mean for North Carolina in the sense that did because
basically the way it was laid out is Belichick presented
them this is how I'm taking the job. Mike Lombardi
has already been now the name the GM at North Carolina.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Right, it's kind of wild, man, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
I think there's so many layers to this. I mean,
how many games is he from overcoming Don Show's record is.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
Like fifteen or something.
Speaker 5 (26:41):
Yeah, I believe to think that, like you wouldn't want
to take at seventy two years old, mind you. North
Carolina moved on from Mac Brown who's seventy three, and
hired Bill Belichick, who's seventy two. Now maybe they look
at back Brown and say, well, you feel like Bill
Belichick's a pretty surprise seventy two year old. This data
(27:01):
twenty four year old.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
So he's got a lot of juice left in him.
He gonna get out there on campus, getting the date
he could recruit. We know that.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
I think there's that element of it which teams will
use against him in recruiting. However, this to me is
more about not his legacy. It's about Steve Belichick.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
You know.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
I think as he looks at the landscape and says,
I want to take over a situation where I know
I can give my son an opportunity to come in,
be the defensive coordinator, work with my son in my
final years of coaching, and be able to then pass
that torch.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Along to him. As long as that's.
Speaker 5 (27:38):
You know what the agreement is on the way in,
and I'm I mean contractually they make that work somehow,
But that is what I think this has to do
with more than anything else.
Speaker 4 (27:48):
And I also would say for a lot of the
naysayers who are.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
Like, why would an NFL coach want to go to
college because it's never as close to the NFL game
as it's ever been, then right now, if you look
at the fact that he's already got Michael Lombardi coming
in to be as general manager, you tell me what
college program is going to have a more sophisticated way
of evaluating talent and transfer.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
That's what's about to happen.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
High school student evaluation, which, mind you, all of these
guys like like Lombardi knows this. There's so many players
they look at back to their high school days, do
background reference to their high school days, and they'll go, well,
this guy was a five star. What happened in college?
Why didn't he turn out to be that guy? And
he ends up being a third fourth round pick maybe,
(28:31):
And yet they still go back then and say, well,
clearly the size, athleticism talents there, there's some disconnect made.
Was the scheme, it was the coaching staff, maybe it
was some personal things off the field. They dig into
every player they go get so it's not like you
know them looking at the high school recruiting profiles is
foreign to them.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
They've done it. They do it all the time. They
did it for years when they're in the NFL.
Speaker 5 (28:53):
So this is an opportunity for Bill Belichick to come
into the college game at a time where it's never
been closer to the NFL the way they have their
revenue share and essentially.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
Kind of a salary cap.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
I think a lot of people probably look at it
and go, Yeah, how's a place like North Carolina going
to compete in nil and all these other things.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
It's like, well, I.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
Would actually argue that because there's not as many rules
governing around what you can do that you have a
huge advantage to have someone like Bill Belichick there who
could be creative with how he goes about utilizing the
money he has. I mean, the NFL, they're all playing
by the same rules in the salary cap, so you
have to be kind of creative and figure out how
(29:34):
to make it work there.
Speaker 4 (29:35):
In some years, you just don't have as much cap.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
Space, and college is kind of the lat alied West still,
so until there's more guardrails around it, he probably looks
at that not as a detriment, but as an opportunity
on how they're gonna make this work.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
And I think the last thing I would.
Speaker 5 (29:50):
Say that probably like I you talked about that the
NFL pipeline, I think that's real. I think when they
walk into the room and he shows you all these
Super Bowl rings and that's gonna at home. I mean
outside of making money, which they'll have to share with
players and they'll be able to allocate.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
What else do you want as a player? You want
to go play in the NFL and.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
You're gonna have a guy who's gonna have the highest
recommendation of anything. Do you know who the number two
Kennedy was for this head coaching job? Who was Tommy Rees?
Who's up with the Cleveland Browns? He interviewed a couple
of times. He would have been the guy if not
for Bill Belichick. Do you know who was the biggest
advocate for Tommy Rees?
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Who? Nick Saban? So when you think.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
About how big like a Nick Saban or a Bill Belichick,
how big their word carries.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
Think about all these players who are.
Speaker 5 (30:36):
Gonna have the stamp of approval from a Bill Belichick
with all these NFL franchising teams.
Speaker 6 (30:43):
I think, first and foremost Bill Belichick is going to
have more fun than he's ever had in his tire
coaching career. I think that's first and foremost, because I
just I think that there's the level of pressure that
comes with being an NFL coach. There's just a lot
that's connected to it. That's that's first and foremost. That's
(31:06):
that's first opinion. But then I look at the setup,
all of all of it. And he said it when
when he did his interview, he said, if I get
the resources necessary, this could be a very attractive job.
You mentioned Q during your your explanation in terms of well,
(31:27):
will will North Carolina be able to compete in the
NIL space? Well, people would have said, would Colorado have
been able to compete in the NIL space? And look
at what Dion's done. And I'll say this, and when
you're talking about businesses and resources that can come to
you in terms of putting your dollars behind something and
(31:48):
and and you know whether it be AD dollars, whether
it be just getting behind whatever it is you're getting
behind business wise, I can guarantee you Bill Belichick has
a ton his rolodex of companies out there that would
pour into what he's doing. There's a ton of them
because they probably have all paid them to come in
and talk to their companies and corporations. He's got a
(32:10):
ton of them, so he's not going to be short
in resources to be able to bring to the NIL space.
Now you bring in a great evaluator in Lombardi, You're
going to structure this thing. College football now has to
be structured like a professional franchise. It has to be.
(32:30):
It just has to be because that's where it's all going.
Bill Belichick gets a unique opportunity to do it at
the front end of what NIL is doing in the
transfer portal is doing to college football and the realignments
and everything that's going on. So for him to have
an opportunity to bring that structure, who's going to have
(32:50):
a better infrastructure for a professional team and how that
should look at the college level than Bill Belichick? I
would say the one thing that also came to mind
that I wonder, but now you got to worry about
the academics, like all the football aspects of it, the recruitment,
all those different things. I think those things will all
(33:11):
work themselves out. But as it applies to what does
it look like? Will he you know, do you just
get staff to be able to handle certain things that
you didn't have to, Like, you don't have to worry
about if guys are on time for class. You gotta
worry about if they're on time for meetings, you know
what I mean? Like, does he treat that the same
(33:32):
way the guy's struggling in the good?
Speaker 5 (33:36):
What's talking about? A guy who dealt with some off
the field stuff with some of these players?
Speaker 4 (33:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (33:40):
I think I think guys, well North Carolina is that
is true. I mean, it is a high academic standard there.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
But I just don't get did you kill anybody?
Speaker 4 (33:52):
No?
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Are you're good? You start a tight end for us.
Speaker 4 (33:55):
I think that's where you're going with it. Dang tang?
Do you murder him?
Speaker 1 (34:02):
No, coach, you're good.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
I guess you're right. I guess. I mean, it's not
like you're going to Miami or anything.
Speaker 6 (34:10):
My job.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
I'm joking, that's a joke.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
I can't wait to see how it works out.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
And I do find it interesting that you've seen coaches
like Gus Malzon, you know, wants to be a coordinator,
Kelly wanted to be a coordinator. Jeff Hafley left and
went to be a coordinator in the NFL, they were
all head coaches, and Belichick's like, no, I'll go do that,
like I'll go be a part of that world. Like
I just I like the fact that he already had
a structure in place and the fact that he gets
(34:38):
to do it his way. And he probably looked around
in the NFL and was like, I don't think I'm
gonna have that opportunity here. And if I can set
my son up, why not make the jump?
Speaker 5 (34:45):
Do you want me to give you the last kicker
in all this? If you're the head coach of an
NFL franchise, one of the biggest difficulties is the power
struggle with the general manager, right, Like, sometimes the general
manager is the director report. Sometimes he's you know, the
owner's guy, or it's the owner. Right there's the owner
that you have to battle with in regards to how
(35:06):
much money you're spending in free agency and how you're structuring,
et cetera, and even like stadium upgrades all that stuff.
When you are the head coach in a college program
and there's multiple programs in that state. But he's getting
ten million a year in this deal. He's one of
the highest paid employees in the state. If you think
about that, like, go look at Ohio State. Does anyone
(35:28):
get paid more in the state of Ohio. That would
be kind of like a state employee than Ryan Day.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
No.
Speaker 5 (35:33):
So you have so much more power and control and
autonomy than people realize as compared to constantly having to
answer to a owner, to a or battle with a
general manager. You're trying to undercut you. That's the other
thing when you talk about control. Some people would say,
like the last dictators in the United States are college
football coach.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
They are not lying. Yeah, well I know this. If
you want us to tell you the truth, gotta get
you a burner, ain't that right?
Speaker 6 (36:02):
Get you that burner. And you know what's the best
offense to have a great defense. So if you don't
want to play around with your personal safety, family safety
being your priority, make it your priority, make it everybody's priority,
and let them know about burners.
Speaker 4 (36:16):
You know why.
Speaker 6 (36:17):
It's less lethal pistol launchers, all right, And you could
get one of them and get ten percent off. All
you gotta do is go to burner by r NA
dot com slash LeVar to go get you one. Hey,
pull that trigger man and feel good about take care
of your business.
Speaker 4 (36:34):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (36:35):
You ain't got to worry about killing them. You just
gotta worry about incapacitating them.
Speaker 4 (36:39):
You know.
Speaker 6 (36:39):
That's the way I live my life. Yeah, I pull
that burner out, you know what I mean. Things get
get the going incapacitated for about forty minutes.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
I am really gonna do this.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
I'm really going to do this.
Speaker 2 (36:50):

Speaker 1 (38:00):
Good morning, Jonas, Good morning, Bretty, Good morning LeVar.
Speaker 8 (38:04):
Hey guys, and Casey missed the story where Joe Burrow's
house was burglarized during Monday night football. And hey Brady,
Casey missed that story where Joe Burrow's house is burglary
during Monday night football while he was playing versus Dallas.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Joe Burrow had a chance to address the story yesterday.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
Take a listen.
Speaker 9 (38:20):
So obviously everybody has heard what has happened. I feel
like my privacy has been violated in more ways than one,
and way more is already out there than I would
want out there, and that I care to share. So
that's all I got to say about that. You know,
we live a public life, and you know, one of
(38:40):
my least favorite parts.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
Of that is the lack of.
Speaker 9 (38:43):
Privacy, and that has been difficult for me to deal
with my entire career. Still learning, but I understand it's
the life that we choose doesn't make it any any
easier to deal with.
Speaker 1 (38:57):
Why is he emotional because the mighty I caught.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
Well you mean caught.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
You can't get caught if somebody violates your prophecy.
Speaker 4 (39:06):
Yeah, I mean, I mean I would say this. It's
gotta be tough for a lot of those nowadays. Man.
I mean it's funny.
Speaker 5 (39:12):
There is a social media that came up on Instagram
that like shows the location of his house. You know,
I don't know why. I know people want to do
the whole subbody houses thing, but it's it's a scary
proposition to thing, like everyone knows where you live at
and they sure usc know when you're not gonna be there,
especially when there's a NFL schedule.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
So I got a big ass dog. I'll always keep
a big ass dog. He's going to get you. I
tell you. My guys are trying to get you. They'll
get you. You come up in.
Speaker 4 (39:43):
There, they let you in, They look at you and
lick their face.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
Like, hey, come on in, come pet me da da da.
Speaker 6 (39:50):
Give me a piece of steak. Nah, bro, you're gonna
be the steak. You're gonna be that steak, damn. Or
you're gonna do something that's going to get you caught
because you're gonna have to shoot him. You don't have
to do something unless you know how to use a knife,
but you still might take an al. Anyway, I'm curious
as to why he's so upset about the violation part.
(40:10):
I mean, I know, I know violating you breaking into
your house is not going to be something that you
should be happy and okay with. I just wonder it
was that somebody like it's something going to pop up online.
Is there is there you know I found this in
his bedroom or you know there was a room I
(40:31):
got pictures of a room that was in the house.
I don't you know, I don't know, huh, or who
was in the room, yeah, or what was in the
room that's not who's could have been a what?
Speaker 1 (40:44):
All those are important questions, especially nowadays.
Speaker 6 (40:47):
You know that would suck to like, get out it
in some shape, form or fashion, if that were the
way it were to happen.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
Though, That's all I'm saying. Listen Joe, and hope that
doesn't happen.
