the one, the only, Brady Quinn. Jonas. I'm so glad
to finally be back home after a long trip trying
to dig up some dirt on what the hell is
going to happen out in Denver with Aaron Rodgers and

(01:51):
the potential to be there. But I learned a few
things during my time being out there at altitude, one
of which is, and for those who don't no, keep
in mind something when you travel to a place that's
a mile high, okay from sea level. Um, you can't
have as many beers. Okay, you can't have as many
drinks as you're accustomed to, Otherwise you're gonna be subject

(02:13):
to a nasty hangover. Okay, I can promise you that. Okay,
do they know. See I've been in Denver one time
and they told me that they lowered the alcohol level
on beers. That was. That was that, you know what,
they don't lower the alcohol level on though mixed drinks. Okay,
so so hard liquor. Yeah, when when you're getting a

(02:35):
double shot, Okay, the shot glasses aren't small and the
pores aren't any smaller, so that's usually going to impact
you a little bit. Yeah, So let me ask you this, So,
why you were out there even though you may have
dealt with what were you going like a jack and cokes,
Jamison's and uh and and water? What were we doing that? No? No, no,
no no. So there is a golf drink called a transfusion,

(02:57):
and I don't know that most people have had it.
Maybe some, you know, some some have some happen, but
it's it's basically vodka. It's a splash of soda or
ginger ale and a splash of grape juice. And that
is a pretty solid little golf drink that a lot
of people drink. So a lot of a lot of
transfusions were involved. Yeah, i'd be out that that's that's enough.
For me. Not not not. I'm not messing around here.

(03:19):
Here's the problem with hard alcohol. You go zero to
sixty way too fast. I can't. I can't go that fast.
I'm not I need I need below the speed limit.
I need to I need to enjoy the ride. I
don't need. I don't need a Daytona five type alcohol.
And that's the problem. You start dealing with stuff like that,
it's an issue. But nonetheless, you're out there, you're at

(03:40):
mile high. You gotta stay fully hydrated. Did you drink
enough water? Did you? Did you take care of your hydration?
Did that? I did? I did basically every single every
single night between with the exception of probably Saturday night. Yeah,
after the actual event that was that, I was out
there h four after that. Then then the wheels kind
of came off the wagon. So I think a cigar

(04:01):
was involved, which I know you're not one whoever smoked cigars.
I can't here. Here's gonna be my invention. Okay, someone
needs to invent a cigar that doesn't make it so
your mouth tastes like a rat craped in it the
next morning? How you feel after you smoke a cigar
the next day? All right, that's very good. That's that's

(04:22):
a great visual. By the way, a happy breakfast everybody
listening here on Fox Sports Radio. Hope you're enjoying things whatever,
drive through whatever, you know, Uh, breakfast burrito you're you're
diving into. That's fine. Listen. These are all just type
you know, we're we're not doing exact comparisons. We're just
trying to, you know, figuring this stuff out on the air.
But point being, cigars kill me. Man. I can't handle

(04:46):
cigar smoke. It's it's gross. Uh, there's a lot of things.
Even though I'm not into I don't smoke cigarettes, but
you smell a pack of cigarettes, you know, it smells
pretty good. Cigar smoke buries me. I can't handle it.
I cannot handle sig cars. I don't know how you
do it. I don't know how you're around it. Even
being around it, I get stick to my stomach. I
don't know what it is. You're not built for that.

(05:08):
You're built for this. Yeah, yeah, I mean it's it's
what we do. But all of that being said, if
I were to say to you, Brady Quinn, when you're
having a cigar, when you're having a cocktail when you're
just kind of hanging out, do whatever you need to do.
If I just said to you, hey, you know, not
that it's a predictable sport or anything like that, but
what do you think Game three of the NBA Finals

(05:30):
is going to be? Like? If I had to say
to you, one team is going to blow out the
other team in Game three of the NBA Finals, what
would your answer be? Which team? Would it be? Milwaukee
or Phoenix? If you had to get yeah, Milwaukee, I
would have said, Milwaukee is gonna have a red ass
in They're going down out to needing to do something.
It would be Milwaukee is gonna blow them away, which
obviously happened last night. But but well, here's what I

(05:50):
didn't know what was gonna happen. Okay, I did not
know last night though we were gonna be treated with
with with a murder on the court, even though Milwaukee
won the game. Alright, e p J. Tucker, because that
camperon Johnson dunk where you absolutely posterized him. I don't
know that you can never overcome that like that is
gonna be in some kids. It's gonna be in some kids.

(06:11):
Wall in Phoenix for the next five years of their life.
That was one of the better post rized dunks I've
ever seen? Was it probably a charge? Maybe I don't know.
I have to go back and look again, but either way,
one of the bigger dunks I think. I think we've
seen all season in the NBA. Okay, like, but that's
the problem is it's too I'm not This is not

(06:34):
a referendum on seven game series. It's not a well,
you know, the NFL does a one game playoffs, so
they're better than everybody else. But it's just like, if
you were to tell me which way this series is
gonna go last night, I would have I would guessed
exactly this. This is exactly how this is gonna go.
That's why when everybody was excited and geeked out that
Phoenix was up to nothing, I would have said, all right,

(06:55):
well yeah, but but we've seen this before, and it
felt like last night is going to be Milwaukee coming
out on top, getting at home. Everybody's fired up. They
got an NBA Finals game in Milwaukee for the first
time in a long long time. People are geeked out
about it. In Milwaukee is gonna win the game, and
that's I think that's the problem a lot of people
have with the NBA Finals and a lot of a

(07:18):
lot of the NBA Playoffs to begin with. You just
sort of get the expectation and you get the understanding
which way this is gonna go ahead of time, and
there's no there's no suspense, there's no surprise. If you
handed me a hundred dollars and you said, all right,
blow out one way or the other, it's Milwaukee, and
I'm telling you right now, we're gonna go back to
Phoenix and it's gonna be too too. And the best

(07:40):
part is you don't like to do this. I'd like
to call myself on out on this, Brady Quin, You're
not You're not a big big into this. If Phoenix
comes out and wins Game four, I'll just say I
never said it on the air, But point B, it's
gonna I'm telling you it's gonna be too too. We're
gonna go back to Phoenix and we're gonna have a
pivotal Game five. And that's the way this stuff goes.

(08:00):
And the extra day rest in between. I think a
lot of that factored into it. Janice fantastic again. I
really need to know what the hell they did to
him to get his knee ready, uh, and to be
ready to go to the past couple of games because
he's been awesome. But this is the NBA Finals, this
is the NBA postseason. It's just it's the most predictable
sport in the world, I swear to God. Well, okay,

(08:23):
we've talked about this before at length, and just the
fact that if you shorten the series, I'm sure it
would look a little different. You know, if it was
a three game, five game series, it would look a
little different. Because there is a degree where I'm watching
the sun's at the end of the third quarter going okay,
like we'll see if they can make any sort of
run here. But between the way the first half ended
and then the third quarter ended, it was such a

(08:45):
big margin that I think even if Monty Williams head,
he's like, Okay, let's concede, you know, maybe live to
play on for Game four, trying to steal one then,
and that has to factor in your mind at some point,
right like you're getting blown out. It's not your night. Uh.
You know, Devin Booker didn't play well, didn't shoot well.
No one really did for that matter, you know, eight

(09:05):
was was was actually hot kind of early, or at
least was helping them stay in the game early, and
then it really didn't matter after the second and third quarter,
the game was over. Put it to bed, night night.
Let's move on to Game four. I think that creeps
into a lot of players heads coaches head in a
long series like a seven game series. If it's game
three or Game five, or a three game or a
five game series, it's not going to be quite the same.

(09:27):
But you and I both know why. It's never gonna
change as a TV rennew So that's that's always going
to be the case. And I think, look, we could
either try to appreciate it for what it is, see
if the Sons can rebound and come back in Game
four and have a better shooting name. But right now,
with Janice is doing at least the past two games,

(09:48):
if the Bucks don't win this series, he's got to
still be in conversation for the m v PN. That
very rarely happens. But holy cow man, he has carried
this team. And look the free if those were better
last night, I know that's inconsistent. He has carried this team.
He got a little more help from from Drew Holiday
and Chris Middleton, but they've pretty much been playing about

(10:09):
the same. The difference in last night's game was what
Jannie did and what Devin Booker and Chris Paul didn't,
because that's essentially been the stars in this series and
who stepped up, and Janice has essentially been there the
entire way. Even Game one, we didn't think he was
gonna play. I know he didn't have quite as many points,
but just the fact that he was out there after
looking like his his knee became gumby all of a

(10:30):
sudden was pretty dunimpressive. You know, he's been If I
were to tell you that, if I would have shown
you just the injury, and I would have said, hey,
that guy, by the way, just just a little heads up,
that guy in Games two and three of the NBA
Finals is gonna go forty plus each game. You would
have thought I was nuts, Like you would have like
his his leg caved in. It doesn't make any sense.

(10:53):
The shock was, oh, so there's no ligamentare Okay, so
no ligament are but still no way to this guy
is gonna come back and have this series he's having.
He's been forty plus both games in a row, best
player on the floor easily best player on Milwaukee side
both games in a row. That, yeah, the free throws
were better last night. But if you were to just

(11:14):
say most likely to be an m v P right now,
I would still say Chris Paul because it's a narrative
driven award and also Janison had a kompo hundred percent
to see what he's done I have. I don't get it.
It doesn't make any sense to me. That's why I
got to know what's in the medicine out there. What
are they given the guy? You're an NFL player. We've

(11:36):
talked about this before. I don't think it's tore at all.
I I don't know that would be the wisest decision
in the world. But what the hell's happened in Milwaukee?
How did how he's having some transfusions before the game?
That's what I think. It doesn't make any sense, like
what I swear to God, Like, how does that happen? Man,
you've been You've been in these locker rooms, You've seen injuries.
Board doesn't make sense. No, some guys are just built

(11:58):
different and you can relate to that, right, You're built
for what we're doing right now, and some guys are
good point for this sort of thing. I swear to you, Jonas,
I swear to you. I've seen guys who've come down
on an ankle, come down on a knee. It's been
a sort of way. And you watch the film, you
look at him to go, how how is your legs
still attached to your body? And and you're you're trying
to figure it out. But there's just some guys who

(12:19):
have different type of soft tissue that can get through
that sort of thing. Janice is obviously young, he's appliable,
He's still one of those guys. But that look gruesome.
I'm shocked. I'm surprised, but it it just it goes
to show you. That's why they call him the Greek
freak man. It's not just what he can do, it's
what he can endure and still make it through. Now,
are you okay? Because I listen, I'm not here to

(12:39):
expose anybody on a Fox Sports trade. It's the last
thing I want to do. But you know, I mean,
we did discover last week. I did a little bit
of research, a little bit of digging that Monty Williams
is a notre Dame guy, So are you? Are you?
I mean, is this uh you? Okay? I mean yeah, no,
I mean Pat Connaughton, who plays for the Bucks, is
also a Notre Tame guy. Great guy, great each solid

(13:02):
player for them, and really he's one of those guys
that comes off the bench um and and it feels
almost sometimes like he's a starter, even though he doesn't
necessarily start. But when he comes off the bench, he
plays like that, kind of like Bobby Portis too. Gives
them a bit of a lift. So I know you
want to try to make this feel like it's a
Notre Dame thing. Either way, there will be a Notre
Dame a lum winning a ring this year. Okay, I

(13:24):
mean listen that that is all that's about. This is
a Notre Dame show, through and through. I mean listen.
A couple of guys, a couple of Notre Dame guys. Yeah,
that's that's okay. Listen, tough balls, you guys got to
deal with it. This is the way things go. He's
Brady Quinn, I'm Jonas knoxes Is. I'll keep the coverage
here on Fox Sports Radio. You can hang out with
us as always on the I Heart radio app coming

(13:46):
up next though. It is a celebration in order for
the Quinn household. But it's not the side of the
household you're thinking of. We'll get into that next year.
It's I'll keep the coverage right here Fox Sports Radio.
Be sure to catch lie editions of Outkicked the Coverage
week days at six am Eastern, three am Pacific. He's
Brady Quinn, I'm Jonas Knocks. It's Outkicked the coverage here

(14:09):
on Fox Sports Radio. You can hang out with us
as always on the I Heart Radio app coming up
here in uh we'll call it about ten minutes from
now here on fs are we had boots on the ground,
real reporting, real coverage on one of the blockbuster trades
that could be taking place, and we will get to

(14:31):
the very latest on that coming up here in about
ten minutes from now on Fox Sports Radio. I mean
a real journalistic approach by Brady Quinn. He hears a story,
he realized it's a massive story in the NFL, and
he decides, you know what, I'm tired to listen all
these all these people try and report on it. I
need to be there to know what's going on. Man.

(14:52):
That's what we do with Fox Sports Radio. I mean
we we literally as soon as we hear that there's
a story breaking, we get boots on the ground. We
try to do some day try to figure out what's
going on. And I gotta tell you, um, you brought
this up. I gotta give you credit. You brought this up.
Last week you talked about the line movement and how
even though the Green Bay Packers are still the favorite,

(15:13):
all right to keep this particular superstar, there is a
team that's been moving an inching closer to being more
than that conversation as another potential possibility. And and I'm
starting to move in that direction to Okay, look all right,
screw it, let's get into it now. All right, forget
all that, everybody whatever. I just told you, I don't
worry about it. We are coming up ten minutes from now.

(15:34):
Instead of getting into that discussion, we are going to
get into one side of the queen household that's very
very happy, uh and and the other side to try
and take credit for. But don't don't even worry about that.
But that's gonna happen in about ten minutes from now.
I sort of got that's a real thing. That's gonna
happen ten minutes from now. We are going to have
that discussion. All right. You were in Denver, hey, man,
Odds don't lie. People can say whatever they want. Somebody

(15:57):
knows something. Odds don't lie. And and one of the
surprising things last week that we discovered is even though
the Green Bay Packers are favored to have Aaron Rodgers
as the quarterback in the odds are really close that
it's going to be another team, and that team is
the Denver Broncos. Mark Schlareth reported on it during the

(16:20):
drafts today. I think a deal is about to get done.
Mark schlay is pretty connected in Denver. He's not just
he's not just blowing smoke, man, He's not. He's not
out there just you know, throwing out you know a
man one oh one videos and just making making up
trade stories. He's pretty connected in Denver. All of that
was happening, and it was still was happening, and there's

(16:41):
just this I just have this weird, funny feeling there's
something else going on. And I felt that way. We
saw the odds last week. But you're in Denver, You're
starting to get that vibe, right, I'm telling you it's real.
You're starting to get that vibe and feeling. I think that,
and not only the longer I was there, but talking
to some more people who are gonna around the organization

(17:01):
that if Aaron Rodgers becomes available, it's done, my friends,
that the Broncos have already set up an offer to
obtain him, like it is over game set match. Uh,
that's the the general feeling that I'm getting for some
of the people I talked to. I mean, hell, you've
got von Miller, who's also as dialed and as I
think most players are who've been with that organization, and

(17:22):
he tiptoed around it. Instead of Aaron Rodgers become available,
we've got the phone office to go get him. And
that's a true There is no way George Payton, John Elway,
anyone else involved that organization is not going to try
to go get Aaron Rodgers. And here's one of the
other reasons why I think they're gonna make such a
dramatic offer is because right now, this Denver Broncos team,

(17:48):
the ownership, it's a little bit dicey. It's a little
bit dicey right now as far as how it's viewed
and we've talked about this a couple of weeks ago.
You've got I don't want to say a battle between
siblings or you know, ter brother, but that's essentially what's
happening in the Bowling family. And if they were to
have Aaron Rodgers as a part of that roster, don't

(18:10):
even try to tell me that the value of that
team isn't going to skyrocket, because anyone who's going to
then go buy that team knows that they are an
immediate contender right away. And I don't care if it
costs them a billion, nine billion, ten billion, whatever the
number is. You've got cash flow coming in from TV deals,

(18:31):
cash flow coming in from gambling revenue that's only going
to increase, and then you've got a superstar with that defense,
with that roster around you. That is exactly what you
need to entice everyone to break out the checkbooks and
look to buy that team if indeed it does come
up for sale. Do you remember the conversation about what

(18:51):
the Cleveland Cavaliers used to be with be worth with
Lebron and without Lebron. I'm not I don't know if
it'll be that dramatic of a difference because the NFL
is king, and no matter if Rogers there or not,
they're gonna go for a pretty penny. But if he is,
it's gonna entice some of the biggest wealthiest people in
this country to make a run to own what's been

(19:13):
a historic franchise that's gonna be built to win right away.
And if you could ask David Tepper in Carolina, if
you would have been a little more patient and could
do it all over Ken, I'm sure he would have said, Yeah,
I know, if Aaron Rodgers on that roster, I'll take
a shot at Denver. Anyone's gonna take a shot at
the hell maybe Richard Branston, he just visited Space, maybe
he'll make an off on the Denver Broncos. And look,

(19:34):
you've played there. That's a that's a great franchise, that
is a football town. Anybody that's ever I've never been
to a Bronco game. All I've been to was the
parking lot of a country music festival or some country
I forget the country artist. But I was in Denver
and I had friends that were out there, like, Hey,
we were going to this country a music concert. You

(19:55):
want to come hang on the parking like, yeah, no problem.
Everywhere you go Broncos, Brown goes Broncos. The Rockies can
do whatever they want, The Denver Nuggets can do whatever
they want. The Colorado Avalanche can win a Stanley Cup
years and years ago. It's a Denver Bronco town man,
you played there. That's a that is a real franchise.
This isn't just a hey, well you know whatever you get, well,

(20:16):
we'll give you an NFL team. It's tradition. They've got
super Bowls. That's a massive addition for the NFL. If
Aaron Rodgers ends up in Denver, no, a hundred percent.
I mean, I think that they all saw a game
out there this week for Major League Baseball, which look,
you put the home run derby in a place at altitude,
those balls are gonna be flying everywhere, and people aren't
even really that jacked up for it. You know, there's

(20:37):
still like this discussion of Aaron Rodgers. Everyone everyone would
talk about it, ask about it, and then again you
talk to some people in the know and they're like, no, no, no.
The Broncos are positioned to make a run if and
when he becomes available. And I think if you're the
Packers at some point you gotta start thinking about, all right,
do we just want to move forward now or a

(20:57):
year from now, because either way it seems like that's
how this whole thing is going to go. It's either
gonna be now or a year from now. It's not
lasting past that. And the running was on the wall
and the clock started as soon as they took Jordan's love.
Regardless of what anyone wants to say, because we know
now with the new this new draft class, it's different
when Aaron Rodgers was drafted. If people think it's the same,

(21:18):
you're wrong. Look at these most recent first round draft
picks and these and this this draft era where it's
a slotted rookie draft salary pool. For what they're being compensated,
they all play, and especially when you trade up like
the Packers did to get him, So sitting him for
two years isn't something that you do anymore. And I

(21:40):
just think at some point you've got to put Jordan's
Love in there. You've got to move on because they're
going to anyway. And if they can get back three
four first round picks, which honestly, I think it actually
be beneficial. Like when you look at the Broncos roster.
They've they've done all right in those those mid light rounds,
and I'm not saying they couldn't use the first round picks,

(22:02):
but Aaron Rodgers would be a huge haul, and I
think would equal equal swap for for Denver's future in
the first round of the draft in exchange for one
of the best quarterbacks in the league. I mean, what
a trade that would be. You don't think it's too late.
You don't think it's you know, it's gonna take a
lot of time to get accustomed to the playbook and
all that stuff. You don't think any of that isn't
in in workshare. You don't think any of that's in play.

(22:25):
The hard thing to answer that question is if you
look at what Peyton Manning didn't And granted this is
this is a while ago, this is back in two twelve,
but if you remember Payton didn't sign right away. Now,
you know how we always talk about there's that legal
tampering period That gonna makes sense, But we're we're usually
a lot of free agents, they're going they're talking to
teams about potentially at the beginning of free agency signing

(22:47):
a deal, and then at the stroke of midnight when
free agency starts, we've got a deal struck, Like somehow,
in a matter of a minute, a deal struck. It
didn't work that with Peyton. It took a little longer
for Payton. Paid wanted to go places you wanted to visit,
places you want to see, and talk to the team's
you know even more and get a sense for what
it was gonna be like, and eventually selected the Denver Broncos.

(23:09):
I want to say it took him a little over
a week, maybe two weeks in the process. Was that
the because I think he took I remember a private
plane to Nashville because he was like the Titans were
a real possibility back then, like a lot of people
thought the Tennessee Titans and there was ownership and and
all that that was it was a butt Adams. Yeah,
I remember that happening. Yeah, so, and he was everywhere.

(23:29):
I mean literally I remember driving through Kansas City because
that was where I end up signing there that year,
and there was a sign that was talking about welcoming
Payton Manning or trying to get to come in there.
I mean every single team was up four grabs and
and Peyton Manning was the sweepstakes, and and and you know,
and he was he was essentially looking at it going Okay,
I'm gonna I'm gonna make sure I search out in

(23:50):
venture out so it was the best place for me.
It ended up being Denver, but it didn't happen right away,
and so not. And again, this is the off season,
So not that he didn't have plenty of time to
go in there and get the system the way he
wanted to. But the truth of the matter is, I
think they would make everyone else adjust to him. He's
that special. I don't know that they would make him

(24:12):
have to deal with an entire new offense. I think
they would make everyone else adjust that. That's just my opinion.
But again, and that's only because I think that's what
they did with peyton Man before Payne came in. It
was his offense. That's where everyone else adapted to. That
was what was attractive for him. I think they'd want
to run an offense that Aaron Rodgers feels really comfortable
in and let everyone else catch up. I just I wonder, like,

(24:34):
if you're Matt Lafleur, like this, this really is the
lynchpin to whether or not you're gonna be a successful
NFL head coach. I mean, like you, you you're on
the verge of going from Aaron Rodgers after back to
back thirteen win seasons to Jordan's love and then you
just got to feel the thing out and I it's
it's it's crazy. This one move could dictate so many

(24:57):
different futures in the NBA or in the NFL. Rep
it's crazy to see this thing is gonna go. And
last thing, Pat Shermer, who's the o C in Denver,
runs a West Coast system, and so that was really
where where you know Aaron, you know what he ran
for the majority of his career. Now since the floor
has gotten there, it's we we've talked about it. It's
been a different system. But I think there's at times

(25:18):
they keep some of the same concepts. I don't even
know if they did try to make, you know, make
him adjust to their offense, it would be that big
of a jump. It would just be hard then because
now you've got you know, seven eight games in the
season before he's starting to feel like he's getting his
feet underneath them. I mean, think about Tom Brady last
year when he went to the Tampa Bay Bucks. It
still took him a while throughout the course of the season.

(25:39):
They really felt like after that second lost the Saints,
that was when things started to click for them and
they go on to run to win a Super Bowl.
So this could be a scenario where they start him
off slow and maybe not give him quite as much
and whether they pick his offense or they run Denver
the Denver Broncos, and then they eventually build things up,
get them more up to speed in the second half
of the year. Coming up here in we'll call it

(26:00):
twelve minutes from now on Fox Sports Radio. Listen. I
tried to point this out and I was laughed at
on the air. I was laughed at on the air
last week here on Fox Sports Radio. We will get
back into that discussion. It is a major topic of
the world of sports. I think shenanigans are taking place.
Nobody else wants to discuss it. I want to discuss it.
I tried to last week. Brady Quinn laughed at me

(26:21):
and kicked me in the nuts on live radio. So
we're gonna have that discussion coming up in about twelve
minutes from now on Fox Sports Radio. How about that.
I can't wait for that discussion. That is that is
that is teas City. I ask you one one quick question. Yes,
just going back to the to the bucks Son series,
if you're David bach tr alright, left tackle for the

(26:42):
Green Bay Packers. At some point does it get old?
The whole beer chugging things, Like every single time the
guy goes to any event. It could be any event, alright,
it could be the State Fair, it could be as
you know, kids spelling beat contest, whatever the case may be.
All Right, every single time people are putting a camera

(27:03):
on him and asking what chug beers like a savant.
I mean, he is incredible at chugging beers. At some
point you just go, okay, I would like to just
show up and be appreciated for for what I do
in a football field and not for my ability to
guzzle down a beer in milliseconds. I mean, remember when
when Aaron Rodgers couldn't guzzle his beer, which which look,

(27:24):
I defended Aaron Rodgers to the time. You didn't you
made fun of him. I defended him because I said
it's probably an I p A. Nobody wants to chug
an I p A like that that that is a
dangerous road. To go down and I defended the guy,
and you were all it was a bad look. Yeah, listen, yes,
but but after all is said and done, Aaron Rodgers

(27:46):
played it the right way because nobody's asked him to
chug beers anymore. Nobody, Aaron, can you check a beer force?
But David bak tr every time they got the camera
on him, he's got a rip a beer or ripped
two beers, and it's just a problem. And it was
in conjunction with the fact when he grew his hair
out like a homeless man. Now I think there's like,
you know, he's he potentially doesn't want to play for

(28:06):
the Packers anymore. There's the hair, how he looks. People
have questions about that. They've literally forgotten about his his
lack of ability to chug a beer since that point
in time. Yeah, I mean, he's still one of the
better offensive lineman in the NFL. Correct, I mean, that's phenomenal.
You know, he's he's he's one of the best left tackles.
He's also one of the best beer chuggers I've ever seen. Yeah,

(28:28):
I mean, although I think there's probably some guys out
there a little under the radar, that would would slam
a beer better than them. I mean, you know, it's
it's a valid point on your part because I think
most of the guys who are elite at that level,
it's hard to be elited too things. But even more
than that, they're probably not practicing that as often as
some of the guys who are like a back end
of the roster, guys, you know, they've got a couple

(28:50):
of vices. Beer chugging might be one of them. Yeah,
I can't. If you were to ask you, if you
were to hand me a beer and say, can you
chug this? But there's a couple of answers that I
would give you. The first would be no, uh, and
second would be I don't want to like it's not
not not appealing to me, not interested, I have no
interest whatsoever. And chugging a beer it's way too much carbonation.

(29:10):
I would feel full, I would feel sick, and I'm
not into it at all. Even if I was on
a jumbo troum with all the pressure in the world
on hold on, even if you had to go back
and be the rat from Chuck E Cheese, you wouldn't.
We wouldn't pound a couple of beers before you have
to go back and do that. Well, that's a fair point. Listen. Yeah,
I probably probably would, and maybe maybe the job. Look,
maybe I would still be working there as the rat

(29:32):
if I would have if I would indulge on that.
But the problem was I was a teenager. I was
still in high school and uh, and therefore I was
not drinking at the time. I didn't drink at all
in high school, not not one single sip my entire
time in high school. Just I never Yeah, it was
never my thing. I wasn't like you man, and I
don't know what you guys are doing. Listen. I don't
know what it was like at Dublin Coffman High School.
But but you guys were, you know, a wild bunch there.

(29:54):
I've heard stories, so yeah, yeah, there's a lot going on.
I was like a right, folks. Yeah, a lot of
people out there, they like to get after a little bit.
In high school. It wasn't my thing. Maybe it was
Brady's thing. I don't know. We don't want to out
anybody here on the air, but I will say this,
here's what was your thing, or at least half of
your thing that sounded weird? Um, the Italian national soccer team.

(30:20):
One side of the Queen household was in celebration. They
go to penalty kicks. Let me tell you something, band
Uh the Italians? Uh. The the your wife's side of
the family. Long heritage, Italian heritage. I mean every time
you walk into the Queen household, a couple of things
are happening. It's either Italian soccers on or Jersey shore.

(30:42):
But celebrations were in order. Your Italian national team euro
Cup champions. How did you guys celebrate? What was going
on there? A little chicken palm, a little bit of vino.
What are we talking about, Brady Quinn? What was it
like in a Quinn household? We did have a little
date night. I don't think I had any relation whatsoever
with Italy winning. I don't. In fact, I don't think

(31:04):
my wife was even aware. I might. I might have
to go ask her at some point, because she never
brought it up. She just said, I set up a
date night. We hadn't seeing each other a little bit, so, um,
we want to have a date night. So we went
to one of her favorite restaurants. Did that whole deal.
But there was zero celebration about Italy winning the euro Cup.
So I hate to I hate to break to you.
I'm not even sure she's aware what was taking place,

(31:26):
of what happened. She didn't like nothing like not even
not even like an understanding of what is going on
the Italian national team. So the the the in law's
father in law, mother in law. But both people by
the way that I know that I knew pretty well.
I mean, you know, they're friends of mine. You know, yeah,
we bonded. We bonded over you know, a blow drying

(31:47):
hair and dental work. You know, a little bit of
a conversation Bosso rooftop had a conversation about which too.
There's a true story. H Brady, Quinn's father in law.
Him and I had a conversation about what's or an
electric toothbrush or a real tooth toothbrush, and I was
stunned to find out that he recommended an electric toothbrush. Stunned, stunned.

(32:08):
I just thought manuel was better. I just thought, you know, listen,
do it the old fashioned way. That that's what I thought.
I just I assumed that would have been the answer.
I was shocked when he told me no, no no, no, no,
you want to go this other way, like it's weird.
You know, I had no idea. I still haven't taken
him up on his advice. I mean, I still go
the old school away. But again, yeah, listen, you grow

(32:29):
up on the main streets of Thousand Oaks, California, you
gotta go the old school away sometimes. It's just the
way things got to be. Pretty Quinn, I know you're not.
You're not used to that gated community and all that
stuff in the Midwest. You guys aren't used to all
that stuff old school little old school stuff here, mean
the gate communities hand out toothbrush for free. Yeah, that
is That is a good point, all right, So we

(32:49):
will be getting into all of that coming up next hour. Here.
John Paul Morosi is here. He is going to speak
fluid Italian. There's also a bunch of other stuff going
on in Major League Baseball. All of that has happened.
Next hour here on Fox Sports Radio, Jonas knocks Brady Quinn.
It's out kick the coverage here on FSR. But coming
up next there's shenanigains that are taking place. I tried

(33:10):
to point that out. I tried to let everybody know
it doesn't make sense. It's not right, and it's still happening.
We will get into all of that. Here a controversy
in the world of sports, and it's yours. Next here,
I'll kick the coverage. Fox Sports radis this, this is
out kick the Coverage. What's up everyone, It's me three

Listen to Lights Out with Shawn Mary all the I
Heart Radio app or wherever you get your podcast. He's
Brady Quinn, I'm Jonas Knox. It's out kicked the coverage
here on Fox Sports Radio. You can hang out with
us as always on the I Heart Radio app coming
up top of next hour. A little over ten minutes

(34:13):
from now here on fs ARE there is a look
I don't want to call it a quarterback competition, but
there is a quarterback situation that is worth monitoring, and
apparently there's been some issues for a long long time
with this former m v P. We'll have that for
you here coming up a little over ten minutes from
now on Fox Sports Radio. So, Brady Quinn, we were

(34:35):
having the discussion last week here on FSR in which
we were, you know, just you're kind of having a
discussion about free throws in the NBA, and I pointed
out that we just allow things to happen in the
NBA that would not be allowed in any other sport.
The fact that we can one team has a significant
advantage and as significantly more free throw attempts one game,

(35:00):
and then it's completely reversed the next game, and we
all just sort of sit there and take it like, oh,
it's the NBA. Look, they're gonna everything's gonna even out.
We're just gonna right all the wrongs for the previous game,
or there's gonna be makeup calls in a game. We're
just gonna be okay with it. Eddie Garcia pointed this
out during one of his updates or earlier here on
Fox Sports Radio. Janice had more free throw attempts than

(35:23):
the entire team of Phoenix, and we're just okay with that.
They just hit the NBA were good. But nothing to
see here, folks. Never mind yet an officials say years
ago they were they were he was betting on games
and Tim Donny and never mind all that. We're just
supposed to take it for what it's worth, and we
just got to deal with the fact that the NBA
gets to right their wrongs in front of our very eyes.

(35:46):
They're exposing the magic trick and we all fall for
it every single time. I'm tired of it. I mean,
it's kind of a wild accusation. You're essentially saying that
the NBA officials are I mean, what are they are
they take and bring with this in the betting lines
or what like? What would be their objective for making
us so slanted in one direction versus the other? Because

(36:08):
the reality is it didn't benefit them in the first
two games, even though there was a disparity between the
Bucks and the Son's free throw attempts in one and two.
So I'm not really sure conclusion you're drawing. But but
my point is, I'm not saying that that officials are
gambling on the games. Look, I wish they were like
that would be a two. We could do that for

(36:29):
two hours here. I wish, I wish officials were still
gambling on the games. I'm not saying that. My point
is why, why why is it okay for the NBA
to screw something up or to go heavy one side
and then just overcorrect the next game, and we all
just wear it like I I don't understand why that's okay.
It doesn't happen in the NFL. It happens all the time.

(36:53):
The New England Patriots are one of the least penalized
teams every single year, and we all act like they're
getting away with it or they're doing something illegal. And
I told you the story a couple of years ago,
how the officials would tell you. Bill Belichick and those
players are different when they go talk about the rules
and he changes or points of emphasis. They go ask

(37:16):
very specific questions about technique, what they can get away with,
How the officials would call this, how they wouldn't. And
that's why they're one of the least penalized teams year
in year out, with anyone on that roster. Alright, Defense,
offensively etcetera. Okay, it happens all the time in the NFL.
So I again, I think this is more of a
cause and effect of what Janice is. They've had more

(37:38):
free throw attempts to pass two games, have they not? Okay?
So so what do we drawing the conclusion to Yannis
has dropped forty points in each of those two games,
and it's because he's being more aggressive, he's getting to
the rim more, he's getting more fouls, and that doesn't
just benefit him, it benefits everyone else on the team,
because the truth of it is, you don't really want

(37:58):
Janice shooting a bunch of free throws everyone else it
might be a little something wrong there, which once it
is interesting watching a home game with the Bucks and
how quiet it is when he gets to shoot free
throws versus Phoenix or anywhere else he has been throughout
the playoffs. That it is. It's kind of fun to

(38:19):
watch and just listen to how quiet it is. It
is fantastic. But if I were to tell you, and
I don't want you to, I want you to be
we all respect your honest, phenomenal player going to be
a Hall of Fame or two time m v P
who knows could be an NBA champion, and I think
I think it's by the way, I think the voting
is already closed. If Milwaukee wins the title, that Janice
is the MVP. Correct, We're already good here, right three games.

(38:44):
I actually would say right now he might win it
regardless of whether they win it or not. I did
that with Lebron one year. No, okay, well, I think
he was in the discussion. Was discussion for maybe they
were talking about that, right yeah. I think was it
the year against Golden State where he had that I
think he scored fifty. That was the j R. Smith

(39:04):
where Jr. Smith forgot you know, time and place, basically
just forgot score and in place where he was. I
think that that finals, there was a discussion that that
Lebron was going to be m v P, but then
Kevin Durant hit a dagger in his face and it
was over. That's right, well, and then the rest was history.
But honest is making a case for that right now
with the ways playing, I don't know what's gonna happen

(39:24):
the rest of the series, But again, I think you
should be considered the m v P at this point,
all right, I want you to be honest here. If
you had ten free throw attempts and on a carnival rim,
could you shoot better than the honest on a NBA. Yes,
quite possibly been blindfolded. Very good, oh man, alright, our

(39:45):
two next here FSR
