Sports Radio. So we had some revenge in the NFL.
(00:41):
There were a couple of cases of revenge, but we
had one in particular. There was one team who got embarrassed.
They wanted to exact this revenge. They did just that,
and we will get into all that for you here
coming up, just a couple of moments from now, Two
Pros and a Cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio. No

making us part of your Monday morning could still be
a holiday week. A lot of people take these final
two weeks off before the new year. But if you're
out and about driving looking at cash in on some
gift cards, have fun with that because it's gonna be
a madhouse and some of these stores gonna be a crazy,
(01:24):
crazy time there sticks really Yeah, hell yeah, I don't know.
I'll try to stay away from that stuff. Yeah, yeah,
I hear you. Yeah man, I'll just stay home and
watch all That's a good point, man, I'm talking about
cover sevens and quarters, coverages and why you reach should
be what they should be. Yeah, I'm more of a shot.
I do chicken palm. I did a chicken farm, chicken
(01:48):
farm last night. It's just it's just such such bs
because you're showing these pictures and this is no joke
boasted on Twitter. This, this is not hyperbole. LaVar post
pictures of these feasts that he cooks. It is a
full course meal that you would see on a cooking
show or diners, drive throughs and dens or whatever it's called.
(02:12):
You would see it, you know, like they would be
It would be featured prominently on the Cooking Channel or
the Food Network, and you put the together, these entire fees,
and we get none of it. None of it gets
brought in studio. Roberto brings in a crock pot of Tomali's.
I've brought in stuff. I don't know what what leaves
brought in, but I'm sure he's brought in stuff. I
(02:33):
don't want to ask Finley because I don't want to
get thrown off the air. But you you've got to
cook these entire feasts and then you don't even bring
anything in. I'm sorry, it's just I'm sorry. It's all right.
I've really thought about bringing chicken parman, but it's like
it's too early. Isn't it too early to bring that
type of food I've never seen. Let me tell you something,
(02:58):
Joey chestnut slob, if he wants to have a Tamali
eat off with LaVar Arrington, he's going down after what
I saw some good to Molly's. I will, I'll suck
him down by the way, a Roberto, I should have
had one of your Tamali's, and I'll just leave it
at that. Um, yeah, yours, uh, your ears look significantly
(03:20):
better than uh yeah, and again just in case somebody's listening,
how confirmed, I'll confirm that those to Molly's were busting,
not the ones I had. But but again, I don't
I'm not here to anybody. That's what I want to do.
It's not it's not the goal of the show here
on Fox Sports Raining and just well, Mr, I hope
(03:42):
they hope they aren't listening. I just roll the dice
and and if they are listening, I'll just say I
was reading off the prompter and Lee typed that up
on the screen, and I'm just reading what's on the
prompter that I just sent that chicken palm over my
Twitter if you want to see it, Yeah, that lav.
It's just it's just well done. It was. It was.
I even show you the chicken before made it into palm.
(04:04):
But I I definitely um, I fried it up, pan
fried it. I skill it, fried it up pretty good
before preparing the noodles the pasta for it. You know,
I didn't go too far like with the pasta where
it was just to to like you know, like, yeah,
(04:24):
I left it a tad bit you know where. Yeah,
it's gotta be it's gotta be from from not not
firm to the point of where it's like it's undercooked,
but firm where it's like, okay, I can get my
fork in. It's not slipping in, slatting every which directions.
It was good the pasta too. Yeah, it was good man,
all right, Um it is uh do not do not
(04:50):
do not say you went down that Finley road. I just,
you know, wanted to be clear here um as to
what we were discussing on the air. But he did.
That's a movie all in itself. What's that? Me? Myself
and Finley? Yeah. Again, I try and steer clear conversation there. Yeah, Hey,
(05:11):
can I ask you a question? Sure? So he showed
up at three fifty while you had on your h
What time did he show up last year? So he
showed up at three And basically what happens is the
jet stream and a lot of the wind patterns, it
affects Santa as far as his arrival time. So LaVar
(05:32):
with you know here in southern California there's been a
lot of rain recently, so that impacted when Santa arrived
at my house, which obviously played into why he was delayed.
So so he showed up at three am. The year
before as well three am before, and he's progressively gotten later.
And I'm not saying that's because of his laziness, but
(05:52):
we've had some tough weather recently which played into him
being fifty minutes late. And I couldn't tell you how
excited I was to see him. Yeah, speaking of speaking
of the weather at the Bills Patriots game was much
(06:12):
different than what we saw on Monday Night Football several weeks. Yeah,
and the look the Bills felt like they went into
that game still piste off. Remember the defenders who got
annoyed with the questioning after the game about not being
able to stop the run and uh, And they went
into that game and they looked like they were they were,
you know, clearly remembering what had happened. And they got
(06:35):
down towards the goal line, fourth and goal, and they're
just like, screw what we're going for it, We're looking
for touchdowns. Which, by the way, let me just say this,
the whole going forward on fourth down and passing up
on points has completely jumped the shark. Like everybody all
of a sudden was so complimentary of Brandon Staley on
a nationally televised game, like, hey man, that's what we
want out of our coach. Now, you got all these
(06:56):
coaches around the league that they are like, well, I
want to be looked at the positive lights, So let
me go ahead and go for it on fourth down.
That hell's wrong with kicking kicking a field goal and
taking the points? Like, what the hell is wrong with that?
Like it's completely jumped the shark. But nonetheless, they worked
for the Buffalo Bills. They got it done, uh yesterday,
and so the Bills looking to to make a statement there. Um,
(07:17):
this is a team that's been pretty disappointing throughout the
course of the season. But they go into New England
after suffering that bad Monday night loss and they lay
one on the Patriots there and back. You know, it's
it's a time to get right, it's a time to
bounce back. They took it on the chin at home
from from the Patriots. Everybody was talking about what the
(07:37):
Patriots are and this is the hottest team, and well,
what what's happening with the Bills? The Bills look like
they were almost in like a implosion mode and and
you know what it came to, it's coming together for
them at the right time. I'll say, it's it's one
of those things where if they would have lost this
(07:59):
game to the Patriots, it's one. It's one all Patriots
all the time, wall to wall coverage, because they will
have they would have solidified that they are still the
beast of the East. And and and they're not. They're
not and and this was a statement game. I mean,
(08:22):
there were a few statement games, you know. The Bengals
had a statement game yesterday and there in their divisional. Uh,
the Bills had a statement game in their divisional. The
Dallas Cowboys had a statement game in their divisional. So
you know, I thought that it was some really really
you know, I thought there was some really good football
(08:43):
taking place, and looking at the way the Bills played,
I find it hard to get to the place of
where I really can put my trust behind it, Like
you can trust that this is what type of team
this is going to be moving forward. But I'm not
(09:08):
sure that you could actually have a foregone conclusion that
that this is what builds team you're gonna get. So
we're gonna have to wait and see. But that was
an impressive win for them yesterday against the Patriots. UM
and also the Buffalo Bills now hold the tiebreaker over
the Patriots in the divisions they are officially even though
the same record. They are tied atop the NFC East,
(09:29):
but the Bills are the four seed with the tiebreaker
over New England. As a stands right now in New
England sitting at the six spot, they would be playing
Cincinnati in the first round of the postseason, first round
of the playoffs, which would be a fun matchup to
see how that all plays out. But the Bills get
it done. I do think that the Patriots got screwed
a little bit yesterday. I don't understand the logic behind
(09:52):
the officiating. Mac Jones gets dragged down out of bounds
from behind. They throw a flag or a personal foul
hit out of bounds. Then they officials get together, they
pick up the flag and then call the Patriots for
an sportsmanlike conduct because there's guys arguing with a member
(10:13):
of the Bills like so. So it's literally a thirty
yard swing. And and I think it was Charles Davis
who was on the call, and he said it correctly.
He goes, look, I don't blame Belichick for being piste off,
because if we're now judging intent instead of the actual penalty.
You're gonna be here a long time if you if
you can stop and say, well, did he mean to
(10:34):
hit him in the head? Maybe not, but he still
hit him in the head. He still you still drug
him out of bounds. And I felt like the Patriots
got jobbed in that it didn't cost him the game.
But I was watching it just thinking to myself, what
the hell is going on with the officiating. Another incident
couple times where it was questionable in terms of what
what the I guess the interpretation of what taunting is
(10:57):
during the games yesterday, But I'm again, the game was
the game. I mean, we could focus in on that,
but to me, I thought it was a decisive victory
for for the Bills. And sure, I mean that, you
know that had a moment in the game, but I
don't think it had any impact or any bearing on
(11:18):
on the direction of where that game was going. I
thought I felt like the Bills, Um, they handled what
they needed to do yesterday, agreed, and um, you know
that was you know, at one small moment in a
game in which Buffalo was was in control of virtually
the entire time. And now afterwards, um, you know, Bill
Belichick obviously not pleased. Uh, he's got the he is.
(11:43):
He's doing a little bit better, although there are times
where I mean, look, he's got the emotion of a corpse.
I mean it's just he's up there and nobody knows
that the hell his response is gonna be, or if
he's even breathing from time to time. Uh, and there
was he doesn't look like he's breathing something. It's it's
it's really, it's really he should be a ventriloquist. He really,
(12:03):
I mean the way he just he can like get
words out without looking like he's actually saying anything at all. Uh. Now,
there was a long pause. I think they were waiting
to see if there were any other questions for Bill Belichick,
and then um, all of a sudden, this happened post
game with a response from the coach Hi, um football
A side. Sorry, but I'm doing a story about New
(12:24):
Year's resolutions, and I was just wondering if you had
any you wanted to share with your fans and our readers.
Yeah no, not right now, Okay, thanks next week. He
handled it, he did, now if it was if it
was not a woman, and asking the question, do you
think he wouldn't have been his kind if it was
(12:45):
one of those I think that was not vintage. Bill
Belichick agreed, and and so you're trying to get to
a place. I think Bill Belichick is even getting to
a place or where he senses he needs to handle
things a little bit differently than what he is classically
historically how he's handled them. Look, I threw it out,
(13:07):
and I really do wonder if there's been and you
mentioned it to where he had the way he was
complimentary to Cam Newton last year, the way he was
so like way above and beyond that he ever was
to Brady at any point during Brady's entire twenty year
to run in New England. I wonder if some of
(13:27):
the feedback and the narrative on Belichick and nobody wants
to play there and it's miserable, and look at Gronks
having fun again and look at Tom Brady and it
looks like they're just enjoying themselves more. I just wonder
if part of the let's get back to what we
were this offseason was him realizing I gotta make this
place a little bit more enjoyable, like so where people
(13:48):
aren't just miserable all the time, and it's just a
tough place to come to work. If you're not evolving,
you already did. So he's got to be. He's got
to be evolving and evolving in a way where he's
keeping his environment as a win. There's a different like
an environment can turn radioactive very quickly, especially if you
(14:10):
handle things in the way that it's perceived that he
handles things within that organization. So in order to to
really find a balance where you're getting the proper results,
which he has been getting the results he's seeking and
he's looking for. His guys are playing for him. It's
still the Patriot way. You gotta be able to read
(14:34):
the room, you know. The one thing I'll say, generally speaking,
the biggest mistake a lot of times that coaches and
and staff make is that they don't they don't fall
on the humanistic side of what it takes to lead
people in football, even in sports, or even in business,
(14:56):
like you have to matter. You know, if if if
you matter to me and you're pushing me and you're
driving me and you're getting on me, that's different than
if I don't show any type of care at all,
and the same thing goes for your media, right, Like
you've now got a longstanding relationship with the media people
that you've seen on the beat for all of these years.
(15:18):
At some point you gotta evolve with them as well
to make sure that the relationship doesn't stale or go sour,
go north, because they could be your worst enemy as well.
So you notice people don't really necessarily like Belichick, but
they don't necessarily go after him like how we saw
them go after an Urban Meyer or something like that.
So you know, give him, give him some credit. I mean,
(15:39):
he's playing chess, you know. And that's the thing about
it with Bill Belichick. He's always staying prepared and he's
always staying ahead. And that's something that you can bank on,
you can count on as it applies to him. It's

Guys needs time, man, you I just PI dogs. Yeah.
I I needed you to miss me. Yeah that's what
I need. So I needed you to have three hours
(17:08):
with Finley, so you could have more appreciate me, you know,
moving forward. Well, we have Finley here today, So how
does that work? Well, Falley was worked. I want you back.
Berto was working, you know, Lee and Brady. I was
chilling man you. I was sitting back, you know, was
you know, big balls of ice. I reached out to Roberto.
(17:28):
I'm Christmas Eve. He big leagues me, likes wants nothing
to do with me. Well, he didn't big lead you.
He was just sitting there feeling like work today. Me
and var work today, and I just don't feel like
responding to you right now. Why do is he gonna like?
Why do you have to big league me? Roberto? I
was just drunk. Yeah, that's all, you know, after a
hard day's work. You know the don Roberto was good though,
(17:49):
It's good, solid, solid. Yeah. So that's why I love
referencing back to the things you do when you find
yourself in trouble. No, I I like it. Bert right there?
What do you mean? What do you mean about best?
He isn't here today, e g isn't here. But it's okay.
If there was, if there was a brand of alcohol
(18:11):
that had your name on it, I would have gotten
that for you. There was a brand of alcohol that
Roberto's name on it. That's why I got it. That's
really funny how you you you sink into the things
you've done for somebody to make sure you, uh you know,
get that support back. Well, it's because I'm still waiting
on to get from you. So I guess that's so
many coming, Yeah, right coming? Where is it? Right here?
Right there? Right there? All right? So we're going to
(18:35):
hear there's some interesting comments post game from somebody uh
in the NFL when they come, when they roll in, ladies,
I don't, I don't care. We were brought to you
by nitz It could happen easily if you drinks become
a few too many, it's time to go and you
think a calling for ride home. Now, what's the worst
that can happen? You get pulled over, You lose your license,
you told her your car, you kill someone, drive sober
(18:57):
and get pulled over, paid for by NITZA. We're gonna
have the f s are I are coming up later
on in the hour here on Fox Sports Radio. I don't,
I really don't. Do you think I care about getting
gifts you want me to get you flowers in a
car and candy. Yeah, I do, and I'll return it.
(19:17):
How's that all right? So cookies and um, I don't
I don't want any part of it. And and uh
footage of Santa Um Cam Newton post game. The Carolina
Panthers are a bad football team. Uh. He didn't play
particularly well. The reunion in Carolina. The I'm back moment
(19:38):
for Cam Newton and company I did not go well.
Just not long, yeah, just not very long. They got hammered.
But they got hammered by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers yesterday
and Cam Newton had, um, you know, some interesting comments
post game. Here he was the Panthers quarterback. I had
(20:00):
a moment where, you know, you look back over the
years and guys who taught you, Steve Smith, Jordan's Gross,
Ryan Clil, Michael Laure's, Thomas Davis, Luke Kickley's, Josh Norman
for what it's worth, Charles Johnson, Julius Peppers, you know,
KK short And they understood what keep pounding meant? And
(20:25):
was it ideal? No? Was it? Was it something that
you know, you had to just succumbed to the philosophy
at times? Yeah, But the team got the glory. You know,
nobody looked for somebody else to make a play. They
just went out there and uphill they into the bargain
and they don't know what the future holds. But I'm
just so let down because the city of Charlotte has
(20:48):
been good to me. You know, when I first got here,
you know, there was a lot of uncertainty how long
I would be here. And this second go around, it's
just unfortunate because you so much work ins who trying
to find ways to win, trying to find ways to win,
and you know, bood the relationships along the way, and
(21:09):
when it doesn't happen like right now, you feel empty.
You feel like, damn are you? Are you good enough?
So that was the Panthers quarterback at Cam Newton after
the game. Obviously, Uh a little emotional. Uh you know,
it's not it's not gone smooth. As we pointed out,
he was not very good yesterday. Uh So they've got
a couple of games left. Um And part of what
(21:31):
maybe the emotional aspect of this is the fact that
that was most likely. I don't think they're bringing him
back next year. I don't. I don't I think they're
gonna go probably in a different direction. So that would
mean that that was his final game at home as
a Panther's quarterback. They finished up on the road at
New Orleans at Tampa Bay. So it does, it does. Yeah,
(21:51):
it's rough. It's a rough finish to the season. It
does brings a hard nuts life. It brings up the question, though,
is this potentially it for Cam Newton, because like, I
don't know if he's going to get another crack at
this thing next year, Like I don't know where it
(22:13):
should get another crack at being a backup for many,
many many years to come. That that's how it works
at his position. But and we've already had this conversation
at length, and many people have had it. He's such
a polarizing figure and he's such a big personality that
(22:37):
I just it would it would be very difficult to
bring Cam into your team and in him take on
a backups role because his personality is persona UH is
not going to hit in the locker room as a backup.
It's going to hit as a leader. It's going to
(22:57):
hit as someone who should be starting. The unfortunate aspect
of it right now is is that him starting has
not showed or shown I should say that he should
be a starter at this point in his career. Could
he worked himself back We've seen, you know, look at Tannehill.
We've seen guys work themselves out of funks of being
(23:21):
a starter in one place and did all right being
a starter at another place. But I just don't I
think it would be difficult for Cam to go to
a team, especially at this point, and be that fill
that backup role and they're not be you know, that
tension or that element there that that's Cam Newton. Look
(23:45):
if he really and not that he does, because obviously
he loves football, just you know him and and his
ability to he's a former m v P and his
approach last year with New England is when I became
a bigger fan of Cam Newton than I ever was
at any point in his career, just because he took
such a bottom of the barrel deal. Uh, he made
the most of it. Everybody raved about him in that
(24:07):
locker room in the facility when he was there in
New England. And so I know that he he definitely
wants to play football, but maybe he's at a point
to where he says, all right, here are my options.
I can go be a backup, as you said, somewhere
and and and help a team out possibly, or do
I really want to do that, or do I want
(24:28):
to go ahead and pursue this stuff I'm doing off
the field. He's a super successful guy off the field.
He does amazing things charity wise for a lot of
people off the field. Remember that was there was that
viral video at his football camp or some kid was
making fun of him, uh and and talking trash to him.
Like he puts together those camps, he raised his money,
he donates, He does a lot of great things off
(24:48):
the field. It would not surprise me, and I wouldn't
fault the guy if he just said, you know what, man,
I'd rather go pursue that than go be a backup
somewhere for the next five years and finish out my
career Like that would not surprise me. I just think
he has that he'll have that opportunity to make that decision,
you know what, Like I don't. I don't look at
Cam as being the type of guy that's going to
(25:09):
make a a knee jerk reaction decision. I think he's
gonna weigh it out. I think he's going to measure
it out, and he's gonna see what his opportunities are.
One thing we all know is he does he loves
this game. He does love to play. He wants to
play if if his time is up, his time is up.
I mean, he spent a lot of time out of
(25:30):
the game this past season, this this season, going on
current season, so I'm sure he's already had. I mean,
even when he did the interview with his dad, he
kind of alluded to the aspect of is this it
is this the end? And I think I will say this,
all the things that you put out there, and and
just even listening to him talking about to keep pounding
(25:53):
and all the players that he's associated with, I think
he's at peace with his better days are by find him.
I think he's agree with that. And and so if
if you're looking at it from the perspective that, well,
my better days are behind me, and what happens next
is what happens next? You know, you feel a little
little certain type of way because you're back where it
(26:16):
all started. It didn't end up the way that you
would have liked for it to end it up. When
you came back, you know, when you came back with
I'm back, you know, holler and you let that that
you release that energy out. You could feel it. You
could feel that there was a like there was a
a reset for him. It was taking off of the weight,
(26:38):
so to speak, of whatever it is that he had
been dealing with. I don't know that created closure for
him in that moment. I would say probably not. I'm
sure he was hoping for wins, you know. And and
then but I think to do it in Carolina, to
go back there and kind of complete the circle, maybe
maybe there was something to that for him to where
(26:58):
he said, all right, at least I came back home,
so to speak, and got an opportunity to finish there. Yeah,
they're a bad team. And by the way, the fire
Matt rule chance, we're being heard throughout the stadium there,
so they've they've now stolen that from Chicago. So now
it's fired Matt rule. That's uh so, So there's there's
(27:21):
the the the Matt rule hot seat conversation is starting
to do a spark up a little bit. And also, um,
you know, somebody else had some some interesting comments post game.
We'll get into the Antonio Brown post game say whatever
you want about that guy. He was talking that trash yesterday.
He was he was god. He he is so good
(27:44):
that it's and I think people sort of lose sight
into the Hall of Famer. Hall of Famer. He HOWI
tal where does he like? Five ten is five ten?
He was the first There was a stretch where he
was the best wide receiver in the end fell and
I really don't think it was close. Just some of
the plays he made. People can say Julio Jones or
(28:07):
whatever they want to throw in there, Antonio Brown is
the best receiver in football for for a three or
four year stretch, like he was unbelievable. His his Hall
of Fame discussion is going to be fascinating after he's done,
Like it might even be more interesting than the Terrell
Owens to where clearly guys held a grudge against how
TiO was the player. I want to know how the
(28:28):
hell that vote is gonna go for Antonio Brown because
he should be in. I told he won't get him
first ballot. I mean, I I don't. I um, I
think everybody, if they're a Hall of Famers, should go
on first ballot. But listen, I don't understand, how do
you get better as a player four years after you
were are eligible, as opposed to the one year afterwards.
(28:48):
He doesn't make any sense to me, but there's a
limit on how this goes. Um. I would put him
in first ballot, but you know, we'll see how this
all finishes up. All right, it is a two Pros
and a Cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio coming up next. Uh,

Who's feeling what here? Um? Now, I could already tell
it was a wild weekend for a one lead to
lap Our executive producer, and I'm just I'm happy Roberto
is still with us because, um, you know you didn't
know this labar. But there's a normally this is not allowed, um,
(31:21):
because you've got to have certain you know, restrictions and
you need permission to fly in certain areas. There was
a crop duster that appeared in studio a short time ago.
I don't know if you saw that, did see that?
Lap It's uh? I could I could just tell someone
(31:42):
was up when I saw the the back door open
and Lee, it's just kind of there, very very considerate.
That is That is the But after hearing the shots
in his underworries to checklist outs on it, man that
(32:08):
wrote Lee, what's going on? Man? What did you live? Up? On? Lee?
I was combining a lot of different foods this weekend.
I had I had Mexican food, some Tomali's and that's
what's cuisine. Last night had some ice cream, a whole
bunch of I had. Indeed, I had Indian food yesterday too.
This is me, pac Man, This is what happened with
(32:31):
my belly when I eat and I had Indian food
yesterday to Lamart have I have? I have? I cropped
us in? You id in need food? This is me
too when I eat that type of food, I gotta
breathe too, pac Man. And yeah, so so you get
after a little bit and you don't have to go
(32:51):
take a walk. Now, man, it's all in my head.
Now you don't want to walk through there? Jeez. Yeah,
Lee is uh he's you know, taken over a one
portion of the building. So what about you? Berto? How
did the festivities go on a Christmas Eve at the
Flora's house? Good? Good, But I didn't get to too drunk,
because you know, we'd celebrate Christmas Eve more than we
(33:14):
get together with the family, and Christmas Eve more so
that on Christmas Day. So Christmas Eve, I started off
my in laws around five o'clock, so I drink a
lot of water so I didn't get too hammered. I'll
be dead right now. It is it, uh I was,
I was telling Roberto during the break. Um, so my
wife's obviously Mexican, and uh so we go over there apparently, well,
(33:35):
you know, because we we've talked about it in a show,
and so go go over to the in how's that
racism just clarifying? Go over to the in laws at
what makes it a new audience? It's uh. We get
over there and it's like eight thirty on Christmas Eve
and I'm thinking, okay, you know we're early because they
like to, you know, get after it. At midnight they
(33:56):
were annihilated, I mean annihilated, singing, dancing, shot after shot
they were. They were empty bottles of tequila lying around
the house. Something to myself, dude' say thirty and they
were just getting they were going off. Like one guy
her cousin passed out, then woke back up again and
(34:19):
it passed out again. He passed out twice or one night.
I have done that before, like a house like I
done that puke and rally. No, it wasn't a puke
and rally. It's just you just got a little tired
off of all the fun and the drinks and you
pass out. I don't know, but then you wake back up.
When I passed out, I'm out. That's it. There is
(34:41):
no there's no PARTI here's the thing. When I passed
out the first time, I thought that was it. And
then I woke up and people were still going. So
I was like, hey, let me get that. Yeah, the
best vile when you passed out up like what happened.
But as you guys mentioned that, that's a house party though,
you know what I mean? Like that, house parties go
(35:02):
a long time because it's like everything is free. People
don't care, so they party for a long time. And
it wasn't like you were at a club. I passed out,
I woke back up and started partying again out I
was in the house. It's I was responsible. I mean,
I don't know. I can't do it. If if I'm out,
that's it. I still do that to this day our
fifth quarters after games, I will pass out why everybody's
(35:25):
at the house eating and laughing and having a good time,
and then back and I'll wake back up and if
people are still there, I would go like we were,
like we've been going into just like it's the Undertaker
gift or you just like wake back up? Is he?

a madhouse and some of these stores gonna be a crazy,
(01:24):
crazy time there sticks really Yeah, hell yeah, I don't know.
I'll try to stay away from that stuff. Yeah, yeah,
I hear you. Yeah man, I'll just stay home and
watch all That's a good point, man, I'm talking about
cover sevens and quarters, coverages and why you reach should
be what they should be. Yeah, I'm more of a shot.
I do chicken palm. I did a chicken farm, chicken
(01:48):
farm last night. It's just it's just such such bs
because you're showing these pictures and this is no joke
boasted on Twitter. This, this is not hyperbole. LaVar post
pictures of these feasts that he cooks. It is a
full course meal that you would see on a cooking
show or diners, drive throughs and dens or whatever it's called.
(02:12):
You would see it, you know, like they would be
It would be featured prominently on the Cooking Channel or
the Food Network, and you put the together, these entire fees,
and we get none of it. None of it gets
brought in studio. Roberto brings in a crock pot of Tomali's.
I've brought in stuff. I don't know what what leaves
brought in, but I'm sure he's brought in stuff. I
(02:33):
don't want to ask Finley because I don't want to
get thrown off the air. But you you've got to
cook these entire feasts and then you don't even bring
anything in. I'm sorry, it's just I'm sorry. It's all right.
I've really thought about bringing chicken parman, but it's like
it's too early. Isn't it too early to bring that
type of food I've never seen. Let me tell you something,
(02:58):
Joey chestnut slob, if he wants to have a Tamali
eat off with LaVar Arrington, he's going down after what
I saw some good to Molly's. I will, I'll suck
him down by the way, a Roberto, I should have
had one of your Tamali's, and I'll just leave it
at that. Um, yeah, yours, uh, your ears look significantly
(03:20):
better than uh yeah, and again just in case somebody's listening,
how confirmed, I'll confirm that those to Molly's were busting,
not the ones I had. But but again, I don't
I'm not here to anybody. That's what I want to do.
It's not it's not the goal of the show here
on Fox Sports Raining and just well, Mr, I hope
(03:42):
they hope they aren't listening. I just roll the dice
and and if they are listening, I'll just say I
was reading off the prompter and Lee typed that up
on the screen, and I'm just reading what's on the
prompter that I just sent that chicken palm over my
Twitter if you want to see it, Yeah, that lav.
It's just it's just well done. It was. It was.
I even show you the chicken before made it into palm.
(04:04):
But I I definitely um, I fried it up, pan
fried it. I skill it, fried it up pretty good
before preparing the noodles the pasta for it. You know,
I didn't go too far like with the pasta where
it was just to to like you know, like, yeah,
(04:24):
I left it a tad bit you know where. Yeah,
it's gotta be it's gotta be from from not not
firm to the point of where it's like it's undercooked,
but firm where it's like, okay, I can get my
fork in. It's not slipping in, slatting every which directions.
It was good the pasta too. Yeah, it was good man,
all right, Um it is uh do not do not
(04:50):
do not say you went down that Finley road. I just,
you know, wanted to be clear here um as to
what we were discussing on the air. But he did.
That's a movie all in itself. What's that? Me? Myself
and Finley? Yeah. Again, I try and steer clear conversation there. Yeah, Hey,
(05:11):
can I ask you a question? Sure? So he showed
up at three fifty while you had on your h
What time did he show up last year? So he
showed up at three And basically what happens is the
jet stream and a lot of the wind patterns, it
affects Santa as far as his arrival time. So LaVar
(05:32):
with you know here in southern California there's been a
lot of rain recently, so that impacted when Santa arrived
at my house, which obviously played into why he was delayed.
So so he showed up at three am. The year
before as well three am before, and he's progressively gotten later.
And I'm not saying that's because of his laziness, but
(05:52):
we've had some tough weather recently which played into him
being fifty minutes late. And I couldn't tell you how
excited I was to see him. Yeah, speaking of speaking
of the weather at the Bills Patriots game was much
(06:12):
different than what we saw on Monday Night Football several weeks. Yeah,
and the look the Bills felt like they went into
that game still piste off. Remember the defenders who got
annoyed with the questioning after the game about not being
able to stop the run and uh, And they went
into that game and they looked like they were they were,
you know, clearly remembering what had happened. And they got
(06:35):
down towards the goal line, fourth and goal, and they're
just like, screw what we're going for it, We're looking
for touchdowns. Which, by the way, let me just say this,
the whole going forward on fourth down and passing up
on points has completely jumped the shark. Like everybody all
of a sudden was so complimentary of Brandon Staley on
a nationally televised game, like, hey man, that's what we
want out of our coach. Now, you got all these
(06:56):
coaches around the league that they are like, well, I
want to be looked at the positive lights, So let
me go ahead and go for it on fourth down.
That hell's wrong with kicking kicking a field goal and
taking the points? Like, what the hell is wrong with that?
Like it's completely jumped the shark. But nonetheless, they worked
for the Buffalo Bills. They got it done, uh yesterday,
and so the Bills looking to to make a statement there. Um,
(07:17):
this is a team that's been pretty disappointing throughout the
course of the season. But they go into New England
after suffering that bad Monday night loss and they lay
one on the Patriots there and back. You know, it's
it's a time to get right, it's a time to
bounce back. They took it on the chin at home
from from the Patriots. Everybody was talking about what the
(07:37):
Patriots are and this is the hottest team, and well,
what what's happening with the Bills? The Bills look like
they were almost in like a implosion mode and and
you know what it came to, it's coming together for
them at the right time. I'll say, it's it's one
of those things where if they would have lost this
(07:59):
game to the Patriots, it's one. It's one all Patriots
all the time, wall to wall coverage, because they will
have they would have solidified that they are still the
beast of the East. And and and they're not. They're
not and and this was a statement game. I mean,
(08:22):
there were a few statement games, you know. The Bengals
had a statement game yesterday and there in their divisional. Uh,
the Bills had a statement game in their divisional. The
Dallas Cowboys had a statement game in their divisional. So
you know, I thought that it was some really really
you know, I thought there was some really good football
(08:43):
taking place, and looking at the way the Bills played,
I find it hard to get to the place of
where I really can put my trust behind it, Like
you can trust that this is what type of team
this is going to be moving forward. But I'm not
(09:08):
sure that you could actually have a foregone conclusion that
that this is what builds team you're gonna get. So
we're gonna have to wait and see. But that was
an impressive win for them yesterday against the Patriots. UM
and also the Buffalo Bills now hold the tiebreaker over
the Patriots in the divisions they are officially even though
the same record. They are tied atop the NFC East,
(09:29):
but the Bills are the four seed with the tiebreaker
over New England. As a stands right now in New
England sitting at the six spot, they would be playing
Cincinnati in the first round of the postseason, first round
of the playoffs, which would be a fun matchup to
see how that all plays out. But the Bills get
it done. I do think that the Patriots got screwed
a little bit yesterday. I don't understand the logic behind
(09:52):
the officiating. Mac Jones gets dragged down out of bounds
from behind. They throw a flag or a personal foul
hit out of bounds. Then they officials get together, they
pick up the flag and then call the Patriots for
an sportsmanlike conduct because there's guys arguing with a member
(10:13):
of the Bills like so. So it's literally a thirty
yard swing. And and I think it was Charles Davis
who was on the call, and he said it correctly.
He goes, look, I don't blame Belichick for being piste off,
because if we're now judging intent instead of the actual penalty.
You're gonna be here a long time if you if
you can stop and say, well, did he mean to
(10:34):
hit him in the head? Maybe not, but he still
hit him in the head. He still you still drug
him out of bounds. And I felt like the Patriots
got jobbed in that it didn't cost him the game.
But I was watching it just thinking to myself, what
the hell is going on with the officiating. Another incident
couple times where it was questionable in terms of what
what the I guess the interpretation of what taunting is
(10:57):
during the games yesterday, But I'm again, the game was
the game. I mean, we could focus in on that,
but to me, I thought it was a decisive victory
for for the Bills. And sure, I mean that, you
know that had a moment in the game, but I
don't think it had any impact or any bearing on
(11:18):
on the direction of where that game was going. I
thought I felt like the Bills, Um, they handled what
they needed to do yesterday, agreed, and um, you know
that was you know, at one small moment in a
game in which Buffalo was was in control of virtually
the entire time. And now afterwards, um, you know, Bill
Belichick obviously not pleased. Uh, he's got the he is.
(11:43):
He's doing a little bit better, although there are times
where I mean, look, he's got the emotion of a corpse.
I mean it's just he's up there and nobody knows
that the hell his response is gonna be, or if
he's even breathing from time to time. Uh, and there
was he doesn't look like he's breathing something. It's it's
it's really, it's really he should be a ventriloquist. He really,
(12:03):
I mean the way he just he can like get
words out without looking like he's actually saying anything at all. Uh. Now,
there was a long pause. I think they were waiting
to see if there were any other questions for Bill Belichick,
and then um, all of a sudden, this happened post
game with a response from the coach Hi, um football
A side. Sorry, but I'm doing a story about New
(12:24):
Year's resolutions, and I was just wondering if you had
any you wanted to share with your fans and our readers.
Yeah no, not right now, Okay, thanks next week. He
handled it, he did, now if it was if it
was not a woman, and asking the question, do you
think he wouldn't have been his kind if it was
(12:45):
one of those I think that was not vintage. Bill
Belichick agreed, and and so you're trying to get to
a place. I think Bill Belichick is even getting to
a place or where he senses he needs to handle
things a little bit differently than what he is classically
historically how he's handled them. Look, I threw it out,
(13:07):
and I really do wonder if there's been and you
mentioned it to where he had the way he was
complimentary to Cam Newton last year, the way he was
so like way above and beyond that he ever was
to Brady at any point during Brady's entire twenty year
to run in New England. I wonder if some of
(13:27):
the feedback and the narrative on Belichick and nobody wants
to play there and it's miserable, and look at Gronks
having fun again and look at Tom Brady and it
looks like they're just enjoying themselves more. I just wonder
if part of the let's get back to what we
were this offseason was him realizing I gotta make this
place a little bit more enjoyable, like so where people
(13:48):
aren't just miserable all the time, and it's just a
tough place to come to work. If you're not evolving,
you already did. So he's got to be. He's got
to be evolving and evolving in a way where he's
keeping his environment as a win. There's a different like
an environment can turn radioactive very quickly, especially if you
(14:10):
handle things in the way that it's perceived that he
handles things within that organization. So in order to to
really find a balance where you're getting the proper results,
which he has been getting the results he's seeking and
he's looking for. His guys are playing for him. It's
still the Patriot way. You gotta be able to read
(14:34):
the room, you know. The one thing I'll say, generally speaking,
the biggest mistake a lot of times that coaches and
and staff make is that they don't they don't fall
on the humanistic side of what it takes to lead
people in football, even in sports, or even in business,
(14:56):
like you have to matter. You know, if if if
you matter to me and you're pushing me and you're
driving me and you're getting on me, that's different than
if I don't show any type of care at all,
and the same thing goes for your media, right, Like
you've now got a longstanding relationship with the media people
that you've seen on the beat for all of these years.
(15:18):
At some point you gotta evolve with them as well
to make sure that the relationship doesn't stale or go sour,
go north, because they could be your worst enemy as well.
So you notice people don't really necessarily like Belichick, but
they don't necessarily go after him like how we saw
them go after an Urban Meyer or something like that.
So you know, give him, give him some credit. I mean,
(15:39):
he's playing chess, you know. And that's the thing about
it with Bill Belichick. He's always staying prepared and he's
always staying ahead. And that's something that you can bank on,
you can count on as it applies to him. It's
two pros and a cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio,

(20:00):
a moment where, you know, you look back over the
years and guys who taught you, Steve Smith, Jordan's Gross,
Ryan Clil, Michael Laure's, Thomas Davis, Luke Kickley's, Josh Norman
for what it's worth, Charles Johnson, Julius Peppers, you know,
KK short And they understood what keep pounding meant? And
(20:25):
was it ideal? No? Was it? Was it something that
you know, you had to just succumbed to the philosophy
at times? Yeah, But the team got the glory. You know,
nobody looked for somebody else to make a play. They
just went out there and uphill they into the bargain
and they don't know what the future holds. But I'm
just so let down because the city of Charlotte has
(20:48):
been good to me. You know, when I first got here,
you know, there was a lot of uncertainty how long
I would be here. And this second go around, it's
just unfortunate because you so much work ins who trying
to find ways to win, trying to find ways to win,
and you know, bood the relationships along the way, and
(21:09):
when it doesn't happen like right now, you feel empty.
You feel like, damn are you? Are you good enough?
So that was the Panthers quarterback at Cam Newton after
the game. Obviously, Uh a little emotional. Uh you know,
it's not it's not gone smooth. As we pointed out,
he was not very good yesterday. Uh So they've got
a couple of games left. Um And part of what
(21:31):
maybe the emotional aspect of this is the fact that
that was most likely. I don't think they're bringing him
back next year. I don't. I don't I think they're
gonna go probably in a different direction. So that would
mean that that was his final game at home as
a Panther's quarterback. They finished up on the road at
New Orleans at Tampa Bay. So it does, it does. Yeah,
(21:51):
it's rough. It's a rough finish to the season. It
does brings a hard nuts life. It brings up the question, though,
is this potentially it for Cam Newton, because like, I
don't know if he's going to get another crack at
this thing next year, Like I don't know where it
(22:13):
should get another crack at being a backup for many,
many many years to come. That that's how it works
at his position. But and we've already had this conversation
at length, and many people have had it. He's such
a polarizing figure and he's such a big personality that
(22:37):
I just it would it would be very difficult to
bring Cam into your team and in him take on
a backups role because his personality is persona UH is
not going to hit in the locker room as a backup.
It's going to hit as a leader. It's going to
(22:57):
hit as someone who should be starting. The unfortunate aspect
of it right now is is that him starting has
not showed or shown I should say that he should
be a starter at this point in his career. Could
he worked himself back We've seen, you know, look at Tannehill.
We've seen guys work themselves out of funks of being
(23:21):
a starter in one place and did all right being
a starter at another place. But I just don't I
think it would be difficult for Cam to go to
a team, especially at this point, and be that fill
that backup role and they're not be you know, that
tension or that element there that that's Cam Newton. Look
(23:45):
if he really and not that he does, because obviously
he loves football, just you know him and and his
ability to he's a former m v P and his
approach last year with New England is when I became
a bigger fan of Cam Newton than I ever was
at any point in his career, just because he took
such a bottom of the barrel deal. Uh, he made
the most of it. Everybody raved about him in that
(24:07):
locker room in the facility when he was there in
New England. And so I know that he he definitely
wants to play football, but maybe he's at a point
to where he says, all right, here are my options.
I can go be a backup, as you said, somewhere
and and and help a team out possibly, or do
I really want to do that, or do I want
(24:28):
to go ahead and pursue this stuff I'm doing off
the field. He's a super successful guy off the field.
He does amazing things charity wise for a lot of
people off the field. Remember that was there was that
viral video at his football camp or some kid was
making fun of him, uh and and talking trash to him.
Like he puts together those camps, he raised his money,
he donates, He does a lot of great things off
(24:48):
the field. It would not surprise me, and I wouldn't
fault the guy if he just said, you know what, man,
I'd rather go pursue that than go be a backup
somewhere for the next five years and finish out my
career Like that would not surprise me. I just think
he has that he'll have that opportunity to make that decision,
you know what, Like I don't. I don't look at
Cam as being the type of guy that's going to
(25:09):
make a a knee jerk reaction decision. I think he's
gonna weigh it out. I think he's going to measure
it out, and he's gonna see what his opportunities are.
One thing we all know is he does he loves
this game. He does love to play. He wants to
play if if his time is up, his time is up.
I mean, he spent a lot of time out of
(25:30):
the game this past season, this this season, going on
current season, so I'm sure he's already had. I mean,
even when he did the interview with his dad, he
kind of alluded to the aspect of is this it
is this the end? And I think I will say this,
all the things that you put out there, and and
just even listening to him talking about to keep pounding
(25:53):
and all the players that he's associated with, I think
he's at peace with his better days are by find him.
I think he's agree with that. And and so if
if you're looking at it from the perspective that, well,
my better days are behind me, and what happens next
is what happens next? You know, you feel a little
little certain type of way because you're back where it
(26:16):
all started. It didn't end up the way that you
would have liked for it to end it up. When
you came back, you know, when you came back with
I'm back, you know, holler and you let that that
you release that energy out. You could feel it. You
could feel that there was a like there was a
a reset for him. It was taking off of the weight,
(26:38):
so to speak, of whatever it is that he had
been dealing with. I don't know that created closure for
him in that moment. I would say probably not. I'm
sure he was hoping for wins, you know. And and
then but I think to do it in Carolina, to
go back there and kind of complete the circle, maybe
maybe there was something to that for him to where
(26:58):
he said, all right, at least I came back home,
so to speak, and got an opportunity to finish there. Yeah,
they're a bad team. And by the way, the fire
Matt rule chance, we're being heard throughout the stadium there,
so they've they've now stolen that from Chicago. So now
it's fired Matt rule. That's uh so, So there's there's
(27:21):
the the the Matt rule hot seat conversation is starting
to do a spark up a little bit. And also, um,
you know, somebody else had some some interesting comments post game.
We'll get into the Antonio Brown post game say whatever
you want about that guy. He was talking that trash yesterday.
He was he was god. He he is so good
(27:44):
that it's and I think people sort of lose sight
into the Hall of Famer. Hall of Famer. He HOWI
tal where does he like? Five ten is five ten?
He was the first There was a stretch where he
was the best wide receiver in the end fell and
I really don't think it was close. Just some of
the plays he made. People can say Julio Jones or
(28:07):
whatever they want to throw in there, Antonio Brown is
the best receiver in football for for a three or
four year stretch, like he was unbelievable. His his Hall
of Fame discussion is going to be fascinating after he's done,
Like it might even be more interesting than the Terrell
Owens to where clearly guys held a grudge against how
TiO was the player. I want to know how the
(28:28):
hell that vote is gonna go for Antonio Brown because
he should be in. I told he won't get him
first ballot. I mean, I I don't. I um, I
think everybody, if they're a Hall of Famers, should go
on first ballot. But listen, I don't understand, how do
you get better as a player four years after you
were are eligible, as opposed to the one year afterwards.
(28:48):
He doesn't make any sense to me, but there's a
limit on how this goes. Um. I would put him
in first ballot, but you know, we'll see how this
all finishes up. All right, it is a two Pros
and a Cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio coming up next. Uh,

Who's feeling what here? Um? Now, I could already tell
it was a wild weekend for a one lead to
lap Our executive producer, and I'm just I'm happy Roberto
is still with us because, um, you know you didn't
know this labar. But there's a normally this is not allowed, um,
(31:21):
because you've got to have certain you know, restrictions and
you need permission to fly in certain areas. There was
a crop duster that appeared in studio a short time ago.
I don't know if you saw that, did see that?
Lap It's uh? I could I could just tell someone
(31:42):
was up when I saw the the back door open
and Lee, it's just kind of there, very very considerate.
That is That is the But after hearing the shots
in his underworries to checklist outs on it, man that
(32:08):
wrote Lee, what's going on? Man? What did you live? Up? On? Lee?
I was combining a lot of different foods this weekend.
I had I had Mexican food, some Tomali's and that's
what's cuisine. Last night had some ice cream, a whole
bunch of I had. Indeed, I had Indian food yesterday too.
This is me, pac Man, This is what happened with
(32:31):
my belly when I eat and I had Indian food
yesterday to Lamart have I have? I have? I cropped
us in? You id in need food? This is me
too when I eat that type of food, I gotta
breathe too, pac Man. And yeah, so so you get
after a little bit and you don't have to go
(32:51):
take a walk. Now, man, it's all in my head.
Now you don't want to walk through there? Jeez. Yeah,
Lee is uh he's you know, taken over a one
portion of the building. So what about you? Berto? How
did the festivities go on a Christmas Eve at the
Flora's house? Good? Good, But I didn't get to too drunk,
because you know, we'd celebrate Christmas Eve more than we
(33:14):
get together with the family, and Christmas Eve more so
that on Christmas Day. So Christmas Eve, I started off
my in laws around five o'clock, so I drink a
lot of water so I didn't get too hammered. I'll
be dead right now. It is it, uh I was,
I was telling Roberto during the break. Um, so my
wife's obviously Mexican, and uh so we go over there apparently, well,
(33:35):
you know, because we we've talked about it in a show,
and so go go over to the in how's that
racism just clarifying? Go over to the in laws at
what makes it a new audience? It's uh. We get
over there and it's like eight thirty on Christmas Eve
and I'm thinking, okay, you know we're early because they
like to, you know, get after it. At midnight they
(33:56):
were annihilated, I mean annihilated, singing, dancing, shot after shot
they were. They were empty bottles of tequila lying around
the house. Something to myself, dude' say thirty and they
were just getting they were going off. Like one guy
her cousin passed out, then woke back up again and
(34:19):
it passed out again. He passed out twice or one night.
I have done that before, like a house like I
done that puke and rally. No, it wasn't a puke
and rally. It's just you just got a little tired
off of all the fun and the drinks and you
pass out. I don't know, but then you wake back up.
When I passed out, I'm out. That's it. There is
(34:41):
no there's no PARTI here's the thing. When I passed
out the first time, I thought that was it. And
then I woke up and people were still going. So
I was like, hey, let me get that. Yeah, the
best vile when you passed out up like what happened.
But as you guys mentioned that, that's a house party though,
you know what I mean? Like that, house parties go
(35:02):
a long time because it's like everything is free. People
don't care, so they party for a long time. And
it wasn't like you were at a club. I passed out,
I woke back up and started partying again out I
was in the house. It's I was responsible. I mean,
I don't know. I can't do it. If if I'm out,
that's it. I still do that to this day our
fifth quarters after games, I will pass out why everybody's
(35:25):
at the house eating and laughing and having a good time,
and then back and I'll wake back up and if
people are still there, I would go like we were,
like we've been going into just like it's the Undertaker
gift or you just like wake back up? Is he?
