Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
Saulsbury. Okay, let's do this.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Sewn Salisbury, the USC Truths, longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
Bryan Lima, go Lobos. This is the Sewan Salisbury show.

Speaker 4 (00:22):
At home against the Charlotte Hornets. Seven pm is the
tip off six o'clock launch pad right here on your
home for Astro or excuse me, yeah, for Astros and Rockets.
Sports Talk seven ninety got some early morning news out
of the NFL, Adam Scheffer reporting that DeAndre Hopkins is
going to be traded two.

Speaker 5 (00:45):
Kansasity Chiefs sub sean good morning minute before we knew that.
It took about a minute to decide that he was
going to go somewhere good. And the Chiefs need receivers.
Their offense is not that good. They keep winning, but
their offense is not that good. It's the worst offense
they've had some since, in my opinion, since Mahomes andy
Reid been together. And when I say the worst, they

(01:06):
still win because Mahomes makes enough plays and the guys
just and their defense is carrying them. Make zero mistake
about that until Mahomes has to step up and play
like Superman, and he does. But the consistency of that offense.
I mean they're not very good. They're nineteenth. They just
receiving yards per game at receiver. They just their passing

(01:28):
game is Actually, if it wasn't Patrick Mahomes, you'd be
looking to say, what's going on with our passing? If
it wasn't a star, you know, a guy who's got
as much success, has had as much success as him.
So impressive that Kansas City continues to attack and not
wait around. There's a lot of teams in this league

(01:48):
that can take lessons from him, I mean him meaning
them can't City Chiefs. There's a ton of teams that
could take lessons that.

Speaker 6 (01:55):
Here.

Speaker 5 (01:56):
There are the reigning back to back Super Bowl champions
and they're undefeated this year. Playing realize that, oh we're
the champions. We got Hall passes, right, we can you know,
we can lose a few games and nobody will be
on our ass. They're like, no, we're gonna get better.
We're just going to get better. And they go out
and get DeAndre Hopkins, who's no, it's not the DeAndre Hopkins.
We know him is that guy, but he's still a

(02:17):
good player and on that team he becomes hell, maybe
they're best receiver not named Kelsey, right, so probably so
it is. It's a good get for Kansas City and
a smart get and probably I don't even know what
it cost him, but not much. It's not going to
cost him much getting the second round pick for Hopkins.
He's not he's not the fifth round pick some so,

(02:43):
but it'll be good for Kansas City to add that body.
And they need help with the receiver, and they need
help offensively to continue the production because you're asking a
lot of your defense and asking a lot of ma
Homes to make phenomenal plays on a regular basis when
when it's needed, and he always does it. But at
some point in time, the other team is gonna win one.
So yeah, I'm okay with it. If you're Kansas City.

(03:04):
I love it because it just instantly makes them better
and takes a it just they're the they're the standard
bearer for the way you're supposed to go about your business.
Love it.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
He goes from meaning DeAndre Hopkins goes from playing with
quarterbacks Will Levis and Mason Rudolph to Patrick Mahomes. Yeah,
what a least, what a new lease on a career
that is huh rags for riches phenomenal.

Speaker 5 (03:30):
Yeah, incredible. Good for them. Don't bury the lead though,
what's that Jamel Hill story? I mean, Jameel Hill got
a show? Is that the lead? God? No, could there
be any she saw anybody worse than her? Could there
be a show? Is there a show you'd rather watch worse?
The only thing that would add to is your guy
Ryan Clark and the chicks from the views. That that

(03:53):
makes it a real fun show. She's I tell you what,
man good on her that she can she can do that.
But I can't imagine there's anything I want to see
on that show.

Speaker 4 (04:03):
Sports TV news magazine above the fold for t n
T sports.

Speaker 5 (04:07):
It's Jamel Hill's news show. I'll stay below the fold
on that. Yeah, I'm not gonna. I would not. Yeah,
I wouldn't watch that show. I don't think so.

Speaker 7 (04:17):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
Bronnie and lebron played last night together, which lebron is
the producer of her show.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
True TV or whatever. So the Lakers, Yeah, bron Broun
and Bronny, Yeah made history last night her father son.
Is it really history? Yeah? It is? Yes, first damned right.

Speaker 4 (04:39):
Because King Griffy and King Griffy Senior did not play
professional basketball and.

Speaker 5 (04:43):
Needed at Archie and Peyton at the same time. They
didn't play in football at the same time, right or
Eli the brothers did brothers Manning, but not Art. So
there you go, father father son. Lebron hung around long
enough to do it. He'll still be in the lead
when his son's out of the league. That's wrong. True, Yeah,

(05:05):
that's also true. He got his son there. Now about
two years his son will the journeyman on his fifth team. No,
he won't be cause Lebrono make sure he doesn't go anywhere.
But lebron still Lebrono still be playing an averaging twenty
five a game. Was it Acho? Which one? Which one
of the It's Emmanuel and who's the other one? Sam?
I think is sam sam Ocho is neither one on

(05:26):
ESPN and Emmanuel Occho's Fox?

Speaker 4 (05:29):
Yeah, one of them? Will we find it real quick?
I can't I find what is going on? Dude's got
to fix Twitter. It ain't literally, it's not Muscow's fault.
There's there's not very many Samuel Ocho's out there and
I cannot find.

Speaker 5 (05:41):
Him Samyo, Well, so what didn't google him?

Speaker 6 (05:45):
No?

Speaker 4 (05:45):
It's the the tweet that he put out sam Ocho
or Ommanuel?

Speaker 5 (05:50):
Which one? There we go finally come on straight. Yeah,
it's Ocho cheese. So they did. I did? There was it?
Was it? Emmanuel? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (06:01):
He said, Uh, if you didn't get emotional watching Bronny
check into the Lakers game with his dad, Lebron, you
got to check your pulse, man.

Speaker 5 (06:11):
My pulse was fine. I didn't even see it.

Speaker 4 (06:13):
Look, I think it's pretty cool that got to do that,
and the fact that the longevity of Lebron james career
has kept him in the league long enough to see
his son get into the NBA. But we all know
why he's in the NBA. So yeah, I'm not. I
did not get emotional.

Speaker 5 (06:31):
I gotta come clean. There was no emotion in it
for me, No, none whatsoever. Lakers a big time Yeah,
I think it's awesome. We'd all like it wouldn't be
great if you were good enough like Lebron and sustained
excellence enough long enough to play with your son. Yes,
phenomenal at the scores table at the same time, come

(06:54):
in the game. Awesome, awesome, But it it didn't. It
didn't bring it to your I did didn't. Yeah, it
didn't get me in my fields.

Speaker 4 (07:06):
He played three minutes, scored no points over two from
the field.

Speaker 5 (07:10):
Might want to get used to that, the no points
in the three minutes. Check your pulse, dog, Well, my
pulse was just fine. Thank you. Did you watch any
of the games last night? The two games that were
on just a little bit, just a little bit. Celtics
in their rings and stuff. They were really good. They
made like thirty eight three. Yeah, they're really good. And
Tatum's pretty decent players and they're they're loaded, They're they're

(07:31):
really good.

Speaker 4 (07:32):
Jason Tatum last night thirty seven points, ten assists. They
won one thirty two, one oh nine. When the hell
did Karl Anthony Towns become a New York Nick Miss?

Speaker 5 (07:40):
Yeah, I got traded a couple of weeks ago, cat Man.
They moved him, moved, moved the big Julius Randall now Timberwolve.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
They the Celtics knocked down twenty nine three point shots.
They took sixty one three point shots.

Speaker 5 (07:58):
Make the Golden State Warriors happy? Wow?

Speaker 4 (08:01):
I always forget that Klay Thompson's not with Golden State anymore.
He's up in Detown. Going you excited for the NBA season?
You pomped, you jacked up with these rocky boys.

Speaker 5 (08:11):
Got more excited for the college basketball season than I
am the NBA. But I like the NBA. It's just
to me, I'm not putting this. I'm not ready for
the start of the NBA season, meaning I never am.
The first couple of weeks. I'll watch it, but I'm
not like, it's the least interesting opening day. It's so blah, Hey,

(08:33):
we're gonna weave it in on it two Wednesday night.
It's a you know, you had Major League Baseball, everything's
set around, at least for me, then you got you know,
college football. We know that that's coming up in the
NFL and all that stuff. I mean, it's just to me,
it's just like, oh, now hockey's coming.

Speaker 4 (08:49):
I love hockey. I'll pay more attention to it. You see,
every hockey team was an action last night. They call
it the hockey what do they call it? The frozen Frenzy?
All the teams. I love it now. But yeah, I'm
looking forward to the NBA season.

Speaker 5 (09:03):
But with all that's going on in college sports right
now and the NFL and all of it, it's hard
to and still watching the World Series. Get ready to start.
It's hard for me to grasp that Halloween's not here,
We've already started the NBA. I like I said, my
start of the NBA is usually around Christmas. Now watch,
don't misunderstanding, but it's like, okay, now that's when it's

(09:24):
like when it's in the past, when we when TV,
it wasn't opening, but when oh, you know, this is
the everybody's here, it was opening. What was it? It
used to be the opening day on Christmas Day? No,
they started early, but that was the Christmas was a
day for them. Yeah, Christmas five straight games for the NBA. Right,
And when they normally in the past they started like

(09:46):
in November, right, Yeah, in the like early November. But
so yeah, you're watching that first month almost felt like preseason,
even though it wasn't right, and then Christmas Day hit
it's like, Okay, the light switch has gone on. They're
full of games in and it's time to go. But
now at this preseason tournament and the rest of it, it
starts early. So yes, I will watch, but I'm not.

(10:08):
My energy and enthusiasm for the NBA usually kicks in
around Chris I'm talking about the over eg zero like Okay, man,
we're here, let's roll start to get a feel for
who teams are. But yeah, I know I wasn't. I mean,
I watched the times, but I didn't set my clock
by when Lebron and his kid were going in the game,
and with Jason Tatum's threes, I sporadically went between the two.

(10:29):
I was watching some hockey and I was also watching
a couple shows I like, so a little bit of everything. Yeah,
well you missed out, man. It was tear jerkerd over
in La. Sure it was for some I imagine for
Lebron and his wife and the kids. Yeah, I didn't,
but I didn't get my feels.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
I don't know what's more moving Lebron and Bronny, Lebron
and Browny or the in season tournament banner that hangs
in the rafters at the Stable Center.

Speaker 5 (10:58):
I would the fact that Lebron and Browny got to
play in a game together and check in together and
do all that. That that's better than than the n
season tournament anything. Why you're so down on it, man, Well,
because it sucks. No, it's just a way, because it's
it's it's it's begging for attention during football season for

(11:19):
the NBA. Now I understand why they're doing it. It
doesn't make me, put it this way, it doesn't make
me watch the teams I want to watch any more
than i'd watch them anyway. I love them, I'm loving them,
and I do do. I think it's completely bush league
that we crown a champion and an abbreviated lit. This
a boys club. It's the and now at the YMCA

(11:41):
for a ten game season, and if fourteen teams to
stop it, hanging banners, the Emirates NBA Cup.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
That's what we're doing now, Okay, the Emirates NBA Cup
next week.

Speaker 5 (11:56):
I know people disagree and they like it. It doesn't
the tournament. Basketball does plenty for me. The tournament itself doesn't.
I don't even know actually how many games they play,
I still to this day in the world. Right it's
because I don't care, so I don't know how many
games actually play to win the championship. Right. But I also,
if I'm watching hoops like I do, I'm gonna watch

(12:17):
it regardless. And if they win the title, I'm not
jumping up and down in my room thinking Lakers they
won the title. Leg of banner bring a deer to
my eye after eight or ten or fifteen, well, I
don't even know how long damped egg is how he is.
And they're hanging banners to say they won the nd
season tournament. Just friggin stop it. Okay, just stop it.

(12:37):
But if you love hoops, you love hoops. I don't
need an nd season tournament to prove to me that
the NBA is significant. Okay, geez, great, I will go
watch the view too.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
We're also less than two weeks, less than two weeks
away from a tip off of the college basketball season.

Speaker 5 (12:58):
As well, you damned rights.

Speaker 4 (12:59):
Yeah, big big matchup on Monday, November fourth, Sam Houston
at Nevada Union at Austin p You like to call
it Nevada instead of Nevada Nevada. You're a Nevada guy.

Speaker 5 (13:10):
Correct.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
A and m Corpus headed up to Purdue get their
ass whooped. I'm sure m a lot of matchups on
that day. It's just the less than two weeks really
really intrigued to see what Kelvin Sampson and his UH
Cougars have this season.

Speaker 5 (13:25):
Plenty, Yeah, and let's hope it's health enough to get
to where they want to go and that's the NBA Finals,
even though it's not the NBA. You know what, one thing,
as we've talked Tech College, you got to win the tournament.
That'd be gat. They're getting close. They keep knocking on
the door. Be nice for them to be fully healthy
and get fully healthy. That whole thing.

Speaker 4 (13:43):
You know, one thing that I've been seeing over the
last couple of days as we've talked Texans, as we
get ready to go to break do you trust Bobby Sluck?

Speaker 5 (13:51):
You question his play calling? Trust him? Yes, feel like, uh,
it's moving like a little bit of molasses and Jamie worry.
It's I'm moving as fast. They're not playing as urgent
and there's a little bit of lack of creativity right now. Yeah.

(14:11):
Do I trust him?

Speaker 8 (14:12):
I do.

Speaker 5 (14:12):
I do. He's got a good quarterback. I do trust him.
It feels like he's going through a sophomore feeling slump
right now, not even just so, but trying to get
things rolling. So yeah, I trust him. But on fred Lay,
I mean I'm wondering. Put it this way, He's not
Ben Johnson just yet. Yeah, that's the work to do.
What's the what's the hold up with the uh lack
of urgency and play calling. I can think of one,

(14:34):
and it's not just Nico Collins. I can think of one.
Don't say it. I wasn't okay, I can think of
one that would affect my play calling if I was
as a coach.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
That's exactly what I want to do. Because you're an
offensive mind. Let's talk about a next. Sports Talks seven ninety.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
The Sean Salisbury Show continues on your Roku. Listen to
Sports Talk seven ninety on any device with our free
iHeart Radio.

Speaker 5 (14:58):
App lebron James.

Speaker 4 (15:01):
Bronny and James become the first father son duo in
the NBA to play in a basketball game together. Lakers
beat the Timberwolves one ten to one oh three. DeAndre
Hopkins being traded from the Tennessee Titans over to the
Kansas City Chief Sorry, Sean, we were briefly discussing Bobby
Slowick and you mentioned that there's one thing you could

(15:21):
think of when it comes to his play calling, and
one reason was it?

Speaker 5 (15:26):
One reason you didn't try to think he's no one
reason I think that, oh he's become less aggressive or
isn't as doesn't have as much what's the sort of
a creativity right now now, if he's just getting too cute.
A lot of times you're like, okay, you outthink yourself
and get too cute. But one for me is simple.
He doesn't think the line can hold up long enough
to do what he wants to do offensively. I make

(15:48):
an excuse for him just by you ask me what
would be the one thing that would prevent him from
doing it? That's it. I don't even listen. They should
make the playoffs. If Nico Collins didn't take another app
this year, he's going to have the playmaker. That's exactly right.
So that that to me, Now, how you get them
involved is another thing. Tank Dell can't drop touchdowns. He's

(16:09):
got to You got to rear his head more and
and and understand it that the NFL football is tough, man,
the grind of these guys. Second year you come on
the scenes of rookie get hurt. He was going so
well that it did come back. Got to work. You know,
what are you doing to adjust to what they're doing
to you? So to me, if if if there is
a reason outside of him getting in his own head,

(16:31):
meaning Bobby slowk Is, it's you don't feel that pass
protection holds up the way you want it to for
you to be expansive on offense, because there's no way
this team should be less have less bandwidth than last year.
They were a bet they were they were a more
explosive offense last year. So far, I look at like, uh,

(16:51):
you mentioned Tank Dell. Obviously hasn't really been involved in
the offense, and when he has there's been some drop passes,
plus he missed a game because of a chest injury.
But then I also look at Dalton Schultz like where
is he in this offense? I have no idea, And not.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
In the offense, but in the passing game, like, well where?
So I look at his season last year. There were
games where he had ten targets, seven catches, seven targets,
five catches, seven targets, five catches, seven targets, six catches,
eleven targets, ten catches, six targets, five catches. You look
at his stuff now he's not involved.

Speaker 5 (17:29):
Well has any of that fall on the quarterback? I mean,
we've given CJ. Stroud as much compliment and rightfully, so
you know how I feel about it. I think he's
a top five, top six player in the league at
his position. I do. I think he's special, but I
don't think he's above criticism.

Speaker 4 (17:44):
He's had Dalton Schultz three targets, three targets, five, five, six,
eight two.

Speaker 5 (17:50):
Okay, So is it Bobby Slok's play calling or is
it that he's not getting to him in the read?

Speaker 4 (17:55):
So I guess this is where I mean personally, and
I'll admit that I need to learn more about NFL offenses.
So why are there are there actual play calls where
you say, hey, we're going to Dalton Schultz here? Or
is it more of CJ. Gomker reed?

Speaker 5 (18:10):
There should never be a play call that says before
you leave the huddle that this guy's catching it, because
what if the coverage is different? What if what if
the cover if they double him and you got an
easy throw on the outside. So, now, if you're saying
in the progression or in your reads, who's first, Yeah,

(18:30):
when when Mahomes drops back to pass and you see
Kelsey run that eight to ten twelve yard bang off
option route, we just finding space and zone running away
and man, he's the option. And if you don't like him,
we did that with Steve Largin. I've said this before
we've had a play called seventy y option. We led
the league at least for most of the year. I
think we ended up the number one third and six
plus or third and six or less team. It was

(18:52):
third and six or less. We put him in a
slot and we'd call it a gun right spread seventy
y option. We'd run him, we'd have a comeback outside
and a little on the back side would do it.
He would be in the slot, he'd run a three
way break. If it was zone, he'd attack the outside
number of the outside defender, push back inside and split
the what they call it cone coverage. They'd cone him

(19:13):
right in and out him because they knew and it
was zoned, they still couldn't stop it. If they played
inside zone, an inside press man against him or man
leverage man, he'd push up the six yards run away.
If it was outside press man, he'd push up the
six yards run away inside and with a fourth way break.
If we got a certain situation on field, if they
played zero coverage and pressed a man, we'd run an inside.
We'd run a fade. He had a four way break

(19:35):
and you couldn't stop it. Now that was and would
I asked him. When I first got to camp, we
started running, I said, what's the red and they simply said,
throw it to eighty. That was the reed and Steve
large or eighty now and they never changed that. But
the read was unless Largeent falls down, that's where you're starting,
and you throw it to him. If you've got any space,
you get involved, he will win. And he did and

(19:57):
so but I don't know if they had that same face.
So I would imagine and most of the plays in
their offense are not Schultz is the first option in
the route now pushing up run away? We got it.
The coverage you'll dictate where you thought. I'm sure there's
plenty of those. So is the coverage dictating that you
don't get to him by the second or third read?
Are they not dialing enough your first I don't know
why most people have you got a good tide end
they can run? Why the why option meaning the what

(20:20):
Kelsey does for Kittle, And I don't know why most
teams if you've got a guy that can win, whether
it's a slaughter or tight, and why that's not it
it's a high percentage win throw. So I don't know
why if it's Schultz is not doing, you know, getting
off the ball. I mean, I watch, but when you
don't have all eleven or get to watch the tape
like they do, watch all that and break it down
and cut ups and the rest of it every day,

(20:42):
you don't get to see it. And on the practice
field how they practice. So I think it's a combination.
You got to win, create space, got you got to
give if you want him the ball more, you got
to put him in the part of the read that's that.
That's the first guy, your second guy you go to.
And thirdly you got to have the guts to call it.
And then with CJ. Stroud, you got to trust that
these going to win. And if he's not, so I

(21:02):
don't think it's just slow the quarterback and has got
the ball in his hands. You do reserve the right
to move the the line of scrimmage find something else
if you don't like what you see, even in the
second year, I would imagine they've given him a little
attitude and if they don't, they should. Yeah, that's what
being a quarterback's about. So you got to extend that
coaching stuff to the field with him. And so I
don't know what it is because the thing, the thing

(21:24):
that always bothers me about being an analyst in this stage, Watch, watch, watch, watch, watch.
We still until one of those guys tells us you
still don't know what they're talking about the meeting room
and he's our third option. If he's a third option,
they're going one to two and then protection breaks down
and you're not getting to him other than the eight targets. Well,
guess what. Then that's just going to keep happening. So
if you want to buy and another thing, you cannot

(21:45):
be afraid. I don't know why I see I don't
see enough teams being multiple moving guys around to where
they create. Andy Reid does it with everybody. San Francisco
does it with everything. I don't know why Tank Delle
can't run route from the backfield once in a while, Sissy,
if can get a line back around him to create that,
go forward, make him the back. It's it's empty. Make

(22:05):
him the back. But you're gonna motion him out anyway.
Now do they go to dime? Do they go what
are they doing? Oh, he's in the backfield. We see
teams that would not that he's gonna carry it all
the time, but just a different look. I would fantasi.
I'm a formation guys to death because you get it.
Doesn't you don't have to change play, just change formation
right to make it look different. Just different rappers. So

(22:26):
that a lot of that has to do with creativity
of coordinated. But the quarterbacks gotta get through this region
quiet the receiver got to win. But I'm a big
formation and personnel grouping guy because I can run one
play four or five different ways, and that's five plays
that looks different, but the read is the same. It's
just different people doing it.

Speaker 4 (22:42):
Yeah, I just find it like I look at the
offense last year and the wide receivers they had. It
was Nico Collins, it was Noah Brown, and it was
Tang Tel. There were games where Nico Collins and Noah
Brown Woods and Robert would throw him in there as well.
Nico Collins and Noah Brown at one point in a
couple of different games both had over one hundred yards receiving.
But also Dalton Schultz is right there with like seventy
five yards.

Speaker 5 (23:02):
I thought this year about seventy five catches, seventy catches
this year I did.

Speaker 4 (23:06):
And then this year it's I mean, I know, you
have Nico Collins, he's still doing what he did last year,
going for over one hundred dame near every game. You
got Steph Diggs, you have Tank Dell, but then Tank
Dell and and Dalton Schultz literally non existent.

Speaker 5 (23:20):
You know what else that is? I'm starting to wonder
is have you seen creativity go down with Mixing in
the backfield because of the test in him? I would
say it's just because I got him for thirty carres
and it's a compliment to him. It's almost as if now,
I mean, I don't know if that's the cat. You
have to look at the stats, but we know that
the center focus when he's in the lineup, he their

(23:40):
their offense is going through him right now. And and
so I'm wondering if there's a possibility that you get
a little too comfortable because you got seed, you got
mixing in the backfield, and you're not getting creative with
the backfield because there's what it's going to get your beat.
But it's inexcusable in my opinion. That's why you got
the guy here to be able to run it. But
you create to create more ban with and it's created

(24:01):
less if you're comfortable with Joe Mixon the ball back.
Do not get too comfortable as a coach. Yeah, utilize
him in different ways. So you can't expand why you
brought him here to dominate in a run game and
to have him be involved in the past game and
to use up some practice time for defensive coordinators who
don't know how to defend it.

Speaker 4 (24:18):
Yeah, I just it's a little odd to me with
the lack of creativity. Let's continue this discussion about the
Houston Texans awesome Demiico. Ryan spoke about quote unquote everything
being on the table when it came to the offensive line.
What do you mean by that? We'll talk about it next.
Right here on seven to ninety attention, all baseball and
softball athletes. Hitters House, Houston is now open. The Mercery

Hitters House Houston. It's open now at nine nine ninety
nine West Sam Houston Parkway North.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
It's Hitters House, Houston. The Shawn Salisbury Show continued.

Speaker 5 (25:38):
Fourth to sixth fourth. That sounds about right, yep.

Speaker 4 (25:41):
So we've got uh got some movement with wide receivers.
Were less than about two weeks away from the trade
deadline in the NFL, and first one coming out early
early this morning with that trade from the Tennessee Titans
to the Kansas City Chiefs. The Rocket's gonna kick off

(26:02):
their season tonight at home against the Charlotte Hornets. It's
a seven o'clock tip off over the Toyota Center, six
pm launch pad right here on seven on your home
for Rockets basketball our Demico Ryans was asked yesterday in
regards to the protection for CJ. Stroud in the passing game.
This is what coach Ryans had to say, And we.

Speaker 9 (26:23):
Have a lot of things to clean up when it
comes to our protection, and it's everyone involved, right Alon,
tight hands backs is everybody working together, being on the
same page and just getting it done. Like we've had
multiple weeks where the same things have hurt us multiple times.
So we had to get it fixed, starting with the
coaches and down to the players of finishing and executing them.

Speaker 4 (26:47):
And then he was also asked as a follow up,
could there be any changes to the offensive line?

Speaker 10 (26:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (26:54):
For me, everything is on the table when it comes
to it has to get fixed.

Speaker 4 (26:59):
Everything is on the table. What do you think exactly
that means?

Speaker 5 (27:03):
It means if you're not doing your job, you're not
above bitting benched, get your ass over there and sit down.
And I'm with it because the more listen, I don't
like I like you to be comfortable in what you're
doing as a player. You know, understand the game plan, study,
you're prepared, you're comfortable, you're comfortable with the way your
role doing all that. But what I don't want you
to get comfortable with is it being too comfortable creates

(27:26):
too much complacency. And maybe they heard all the talk
about him. Man, they should be good. A lot of
first rounders there. I can tell you what they're not
blocking many people and pass protections. I mean on simple
pass protections at time, they're getting pushed around. So you
could say it. And when a coach says that everything
is on the table, you're talking to all of you. Now.
The thing is you get if that happens, you got

(27:47):
to execute it. If they're not doing if they're not
executing on the field, you cannot be afraid to set
a guy down because you never know what if the
right tackle it's on the bench, comes in, has a
little more nasty to him, and the other guy sits down.
I'm not playing you because you're a first round pick anymore.
You no longer get that luxury you play when you
or if you're Green, or if you're Howard, or if

(28:08):
you're Tunsil. If you're putting us in a bind, I
have no issue sitting you down. Put it this way,
Tunsil included. Let me say this as loud as I can.
There is no sacred cow on that offensive line. Okay.
And if you get comfortable being uncomfortable with your job,
with your role, or with you with with your your performance,

(28:30):
then maybe you'll perform state state laser focused. It's when
you get comfortable and complacent you don't put the extra
film work in or you just say yeah, yeah, we'll
get it, yeah yeah thing instead of two years in
one mouth. Use them accordingly while your coach is teaching it. Yeah,
I love it. And it should be at every position, okay,
if they listen. There are certain positions. We know guy's

(28:51):
not coming out if he has a bad game. But
if you're consistently inconsistent and you put us in a
bind offensively, why wouldn't it be on the table. Why
should I tell Laramie Tunseel anything different than I tell
Titus Howard. Oh, you're a pro bowler and you get
graded high by pro sports, you know, by PSF and
all that. But yeah, pee, would I say ps pff, Yes?

(29:11):
Is pro football. Okay, focus is that's fine and dandy.
But the naked I'll tell you when they're watching tape,
there is no sacred count. And I don't care who
you are, Okay, how much money you make. If you're
putting this in mind, I can bench your ass. Yeah.
And to me, that's what he's basically saying. Everything's on
the table because well, Kansas City Chiefs, they're why why

(29:34):
would they need to go get somebody?

Speaker 1 (29:36):
Why?

Speaker 5 (29:36):
Why would they They're fine, they keep winning games without
good receivers, right, without a loaded receiver room. And so
they go trade a fourth rounding for Hopkins. What's the
risk in trading a fourth round for Hopkins? Nothing so
and they are the back to back super Bowl champions
to my knowledge, that's correct. So I just for me,
you don't I don't care who you are. I really don't.

(29:57):
If your performance if the back if your performance says
the backup can do what you're doing, play the backup
to I might might be a swift kick in the ass.
Damn right, little humble pile will get you. It's amazing
what that does to to spark a little interest in
or whin a guy who's a veteran's taking time off
and relaxing, and all of a sudden they draft a

(30:19):
first round or at his position. Watch how quickly that
guy comes to camp and changes his attitude happens. All
of this seen, I've seen it all. All of a sudden,
that guy who's been a pro bowler three or four
times and then you're in your about your eighth or
ninth year, but you've had a couple of bad games. Well,
watch how quickly a first rounder makes that guy either
shape up or lose his job, and he'll he'll be
gone the next year. He'll be playing somewhere else. So yeah,

(30:41):
I'm all for Damiko Ryans. I don't five and two.
Matter of fact, you got to coach it even harder
now at five and two, so they understand the expectation.
If you coach it softer and say we'll let him
get away with this stuff on the practice field, they'll
get away with it, and they'll also get the other
teams will come in and get away with wins that
they weren't supposed to win. You can't do the little
things for the foundation, And I don't blame him if

(31:02):
you're not doing your job. I have zero I'm not.
I don't care. If you like me as your coach,
you'll respect me, and if you're not doing your job,
maybe the other guy Willah. It's a performance based business
we're in, and if you don't perform, I don't give
hal passes. I just don't.

Speaker 4 (31:17):
Yeah, I mean there's been performances on that I'm talking
about this season with that offensive line where guys are
literally standing around looking while defenders are.

Speaker 5 (31:24):
Going to wait for somebody else to make a play. Yeah. Yeah,
and listen, you're gonna have bad plays. I'm talking about
that game where three or four weeks you're making it
and you heard him, we're making the same mistakes. That's
a coaching thing. And you heard him say coaches too.
So there's some coaches I'm sure are getting a swift
kick in the ass as well. But it's a not
just coaching. But if you're allowing it to happen when

(31:44):
he says the same mistakes, something's not translating onto practice
fielder in the meeting room that you're taking the games
because you're making same mistake two and three and four times,
you are shut off to learning it, or you're a
bad teacher. Teach him up and learn it, and if
they're not doing it, replace them, sit him down and
let them learn from there for a minute until they
decide they're gonna get things right.

Speaker 4 (32:05):
Texans battling the Colts this coming Sunday, gonna have to
face Anthony Richardson and in Indianapolis. Excuse me, home against
Indianapolis for first place in the divisions.

Speaker 5 (32:17):
Take an early look at some keys for the Texans. Next,
let the celebration start.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
War Sewn Salisbury. It's a Sewn Salisbury show.

Speaker 4 (32:29):
You've got DeAndre Hopkins being traded to the Kansas City Chiefs,
Lebron James Brown, James make history last night, first father
son duo to play in a game in the NBA.
Texans taking on the Colts this coming weekend. Anthony Richardson.
I saw an article Sean about Anthony Richardson. Obviously, he's

(32:50):
been banged up in his first two seasons as quarterbacks
for the Colts. He missed Damnar the entire season. Last
year he got hurt against the Texans, and this year
he's kind of had a couple of different injuries. And
there was a I believe it was a beat writer
for the Colts. I have to double check on that,
but they're kind of shocked that they're the game planning

(33:13):
is still allowing Anthony Richardson to run the football with
his injury woes already. Why would you not let that
man run?

Speaker 5 (33:20):
I don't know where does this stuff come from? That
was like my angle on this, Like what I heard
this same stuff when his man? Why are you having
Lamar running? Or why is Josh Allen running it? Well,
sometimes you call design runs and sometimes you break down
runs that on a broken pocket and you go make plays.
I've never understood when a fan sits up there and
if he's in the lineup, then he's running if he

(33:42):
has to tells me he's eighty or ninety. But what
am I supposed to do? Hey, here's what to happen
if the pocket breaks down? Just fall down? Yeah right,
don't get hurt that this sometimes no offense because most
fans are good. Some of them are just stupid, Okay,
some of some fans. Some fans are just dumb, and
they're just dumb as a pile of rocks. Your watch,

(34:02):
Oh I did? Why is he running? You gotta put
him in harms way then sit his ass down. If
he can't if he's too hurt to run. Sit it out. Now,
if you're saying, gosh, he had forty carries as the
quarterback and he's not playing for Army or Navy. Okay,
I get it, But why would I tell hey? Why
are you right? Why is he running?

Speaker 1 (34:21):
Well?

Speaker 5 (34:21):
What do you want us to do? We don't have
flags on We're not putting a red red jersey on him.
When a pocket breaks down or it's third and one,
he's two hundred and fifty five pounds, he's gonna run
if he's well enough to play. He's well enough to run. Yeah, Now,
would I be a little more judicious if it's like
like I said, I'm not calling him on an RPO
to get to the edge twenty two times in a

(34:41):
game if he's at eighty five percent. But if he's
clear to play and he's on the field my offense, Now,
if his ankle's sore, if there's a knee, or if
his elbow, and he's certain things that he's a little
bit limited on, I'll be smart with it. But you're
telling me when he's in the lineup he can go,
I've never understood said some things are A media member
says that they got because somebody put a mic in

(35:02):
front of their face and they got a podcast. I
don't even know how you can call that a medium.
They've got a podcast. Okay, every swing and Richard on
the planet can have one of those. Okay, which is fine.
It's great if you got an opinion, voice it, but
please don't give me an opinion. Why is he running?

Speaker 1 (35:17):
Great?

Speaker 5 (35:17):
Analysis? Thanks? Why is he running?

Speaker 11 (35:20):
Well?

Speaker 5 (35:20):
Why are you talking? Okay, it's just to me, it's
some of the things you look at just and then
they then they go on there like they they well,
I he's hurt. Well yeah, most players after game one
are hurt all year. Their bodies are banged up to
their hurt, injured, and heard are different. I say it
a million times. It's just and he comes here this

(35:42):
week and if there's twenty yards to go get on
a third and seven, guess what he'll do. Scramble out
and try to go get twenty yards, or according to
some fans or media, maybe he'll just drop back, move
to his right and just drop down on the ground
like somebody shot him from the stands or he tore
his achilles even though he didn't because well, he's not
gonna run, can't run him. But what.

Speaker 4 (36:04):
Like, here's a title of one article that I read
last night. It's not the one that I'm referring to,
but despite injuries, the Colts are still letting QB Anthony
Richson run the football.

Speaker 5 (36:15):
Yes, ESPN dot Com. Yeah, well, whoever wrote that get
a clue on what it's like. I don't tell me
the name because I don't want to dislike the stupidity. Okay,
that's why I don't read ninety certain because it's like,
why still letting him run? Okay, so am I supposed
to tell him to pretre Hey listen, dude, you were
not running it. You can't run it. You just can't run. Somebody,

(36:41):
somebody please make it make sense. You can't. I mean somebody.
Somebody's getting paid to write that. Yeah, there's so many
people stealing money these days. Yeah. I don't like to
get in their wallet, but there's people stealing stealing money
that are that just run. And you know what's funny?
You can write inthing and somebody agrees with you. Yeah,

(37:02):
and he could, dude, you could say something like Prescott
so much better than Mahomes And do you know there's
somebody out there that'll say he's right, right man, Hey,
hey he stands on business, He's right. Yeah, what look
at the numbers. That's what I'm saying. Some of this
that the hot. We've gotten to the point I don't
know what's true and stuff what they're saying with the difference,
And I believe half the guy half the things guys
say on TV. Now I think it's for a reaction. Yes,

(37:24):
I've gotten to the point where there's no way you
can't be making five million a year to tell me this.
You cannot be that stupid and overload your mouth with
your ass and tell me, oh yeah, are you kidding me?
This guy's the best pure thrower in the league, and
he's a guy who completes forty eight percent. There are
those that still think Colin Kaepernick is a pro bowler.

(37:44):
Okay that it's those guys that I'm talking about. Yeah,
the guys who automatically say, hey, you know what, Oh,
I gotta tell you right now, Baker Mayfield's washed you
that one. You know that guy. It's like, surious, did
you look at Bengals suck Joe mix and can't play?
If you looked have you looked at Burrow's numbers to

(38:06):
do yourself favor real quick. Okay, on the three and
four Bengals with all that, with their injuries and offense,
look at Joe Burrow's numbers, Joey b what do we
got that? We give me touchdowns, interceptions and completion percentage
and his yard didge, just give me that after ahand
for seven.

Speaker 4 (38:19):
Games, Joe Burrow one thousand, seven hundred and fifty nine
yards passing. He's got a completion percentage of seventy one percent.
He has well fourteen and two fourteen touchdowns, just two interceptions.

Speaker 5 (38:33):
Having a crappy ass season Inny. He has He's the
only reason they're afloat.

Speaker 4 (38:38):
Okay, Jayden Daniels, Jared Goff and Baker Mayfield have the
top completion percentages in the NFL right now.

Speaker 5 (38:45):
But he's having a whole see see what I'm saying. Yeah,
you'll have the Burrow blows. There are three and four
They suck, And then you go look at the numbers
and the way he's playing when you watch him play,
if you actually turn on your TV and watch the
sixty five snaps, Thank goodness, Joe Burrow's on the team
his quarterback rating. Wait till and this is about time
they get hot and roll off about five or six
in a row, right, And I don't know if they
will this year, But that's wha He's My point is

(39:07):
every year I respect everybody's opinion until it's dumber than
than you could ever imagine. Then I just can't give
it lended credibility. To tell me, why would you have
him run? Well, do you want me to put him
in a body cast and just drop him in a
pocket and hope he can throw? Yeah, you hope he
doesn't have to run and take hids? How about this?
How about in the article saying this instead? Well, I
know they're letting him run, so they got to make

(39:28):
sure they're coaching him up to be smart and get
down when necessary.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
You take worse hits from the pocket than you do
outside the pocket. You better let Anthony Richardson cook the football.
Well there's that too, because he's got a completion percentage
of below fifty percent.

Speaker 5 (39:42):
If at any point he can't run, then you'll set
him down. Yeah, because the guy who's on the bench
is a better passer anyway, right now, So you gottat
him cook. So I just sometimes I'm I give ninety
nine percent of all the latitude you want. I don't
even talking about fans here. I'm talking about articles like whoa,
they're they're letting him run?

Speaker 12 (40:00):
What do we?

Speaker 5 (40:01):
Is this pop worn of us? Like get down when
the kid breaks the pocket? What see that?

Speaker 8 (40:05):
That?

Speaker 5 (40:06):
That's somebody's writing a check to somebody to say this,
And you want to know why when you turn on
your sports TV, you don't know what's real or what
isn't and what's right and what's not. Gather your own stuff,
But please don't say why are we letting a guy
run that you're starting quarterback and that he's bigger than
your outside linebacker. There's a reason. It's about the one

(40:26):
weapon they do.

Speaker 4 (40:27):
God, geez, better let him throw man, better let him cook? Yeah,
I'm sorry, Better let him run because he's not very good.

Speaker 5 (40:34):
Why are we that's as dumb as sitting back when
the guy's got that kind of feed some backs? Why
were we letting Mahlmes pass? Why? Why are we letting
Burrow throw Shan the ball off man? Why? Well, because
he's only if they were four and three, we'd be
talking about him as an mptybe Yeah. Now think about that. Yeah,
think about that. The perspective of some is mind boggling

(40:56):
and makes me want to spend the next three hours
talking about something other than in sports. Yeah, we want
just to get just to get some rest, but away
from stupidity. You want to talk sometimes you wake up to. Uh,
the stupidity in sports is that. Okay, I don't care
what we talk about. I'm DS. Yeah it is white
boy Wednesday. I don't care what we talk about. Yeah,
you want no, I just want to I want to

(41:17):
be passionate and get after it. Yeah. Why are they
letting Lebron dunk? He's older? You might get hurt coming down.
That's how stupid that sounds. Yeah, see how stupid that
sounds pretty dumb, pretty stupid. Now, if you said it
about Anthony Davis, you're probably right, Well, you'll get thirty today.
It'd be missed seventy thirty tomorrow. Last night. He's the
greatest guy in the world when he's on the court. Yeah,

(41:38):
if you get him fifty times right when if you
if you judge MVP on fifty games, Anthony.

Speaker 4 (41:42):
Daves go be in it. You know it's like him
and Kawhi Leonard. You know when that hurts, it's like, hey, boys,
just go get you a little horny goat. We can
get back after we get out, get after it. Come on, now,
let him cook. Yeah, it's a little black rhin on
your system.

Speaker 5 (41:53):
Let him cook.

Speaker 4 (41:55):
Speaking of letting somebody cook, I'm not gonna I mean,
this isn't a tease. But there's a new sandwich on
the market, and it has to do with a quarterback
in the NFL.

Speaker 5 (42:03):
It can't be Rusty Wilson. It could be don't.

Speaker 4 (42:06):
That's not for the seven o'clock hour, but could be
later on in the show. Let's get into the seven
o'clock hour. We're gonna keep on talking about the Houston
Texans in the matchup against the Cold Seven one, three,
seven ninety is the number to join right here on

Sean Salisbury to usc truth, longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury.

Speaker 3 (42:48):

Hopkins being traded from the Titans to the Chiefs. Lebron
and Bronni making history in the NBA first father son

(43:16):
two one two five seven ninety is the number to join.
Let's take a quick call, John, know what's happening.

Speaker 6 (43:24):
What's going on?

Speaker 5 (43:25):
Phelas, ain't nothing but the rent dog.

Speaker 14 (43:27):
Ain't none but a thing with a chicken wing on
a string.

Speaker 5 (43:30):
Uh huh, hey check it out, man.

Speaker 14 (43:33):
So the drama Queens are back in action starting tonight
and all the devas. So there goes the rest of
the year.

Speaker 5 (43:40):
I know you're not talking about hockey.

Speaker 14 (43:43):
No, no, I'm not. I'm talking about them dummies that
bounce a ball ten feet over their head and they
don't call it traveling. So anyway, let's get to the
reason I'm calling this. Jerry Jones and Dallas Cowboy fans,
this is how you go all in. Take notes from
the Kansas City Chiefs. Everybody can I'm not a chief fan.

(44:05):
I'm not a Chief hater, but this is how this
is how you go.

Speaker 5 (44:10):
We all in.

Speaker 14 (44:11):
When you lose wide receivers, you go pick up another
wide receiver, you know, I mean you got to give
it to the Chiefs organization. I mean we were talking
about it last night. Out of the ballfield. It's between
them and Baltimore. Everybody else is in a class by themselves.
I mean, you know, they're they're they're pulling up the

(44:32):
rear and the tugboat. Wanted to know why they're not
making it to the AFC Championship Game or making it
to the Super Bowls because, like I said earlier this week,
the Texans they lack a killer instinct. And I saw
a video last night going back in the day, and Sean,
you'll appreciate this. Back when when when the Cowboys were

(44:54):
in their heydays with it with Troy and Emmett and
Michael and Novicheck and all them and at all offensive
line Aikman was on the sideline Branton and Raven and
just tearing into people's butts about how poor they were playing.

(45:17):
And it reminded me of something that Stan was talking
about yesterday. Was that right there that you know CJ
needs to take accountability. So anyway, believe you all on that.
But Brian, I need a favor from you if you
could my assistant it's her birthday today and she listens
to us on the way out here to the to
the office, and her name is Candice. And when you

(45:38):
can tell her happy birthday for us?

Speaker 5 (45:41):
Is her last name?

Speaker 4 (45:42):
BofA, No, my name is cand Can Can you know
can Candy's nuts fit in your mouth?

Speaker 5 (45:49):
John?

Speaker 2 (45:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (45:50):
Thanks, appreciate a big dog. Happy birthday to that that woman, John.

Speaker 5 (45:55):
That's where he was going. Yeah, I was actually thinking Candace.
I thought I was about I was about to say
I was about to say, or if he was gonna say, yeah,
maybe center box of candies, then it's different. But when
he said Candace, I'm thinking, Okay, let's wish wish Candas.
Then he said, well, Brian, could you wish it? So
there's lead up to something about and I'm like, okay, Candace, Candas.

Speaker 4 (46:18):
If he would have said like, hey, fellas and not
just directed towards me, maybe we might have fallen into
well I would.

Speaker 5 (46:25):
But he singled it out to you and then Candas.

Speaker 4 (46:28):
But it's a difference it's Candace fr yeh can can
this or doze fit in your mouth?

Speaker 5 (46:36):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (46:38):
This.

Speaker 5 (46:39):

is like here, it's like real life stuff that people
are not but you know, like the horsehead costume that
they have. Yeah, yeah, I think I'm gonna I'm gonna
stand somewhere. I'm gonna do it on a two nights,
but I'm gonna stand somewhere on a night like the
night before where people are looking like this dude is

(49:51):
out of his frigging mind. You got no. But I
buy full candy bars because I want because the ones
that they don't come and get there, you buy it. Honestly,
I buy an over a bunch of the full candy bars,
hand out full candy bars, and I'm thinking, okay, just
don't come over here and take them. Then they'll be
seventy of them for me. I'll tell you what I
am bummed about. Neighborhoods don't do Halloween like they used to.

(50:14):
And you could argue with me, say, or you know,
the people are so afraid of their own shadow now
and I understand people are whackle out there. I get it. Yeah,
let you, but heck, when you were ten, you'll run
around five year buddies around there. Your parents weren't even
around right, And now every I'm talking about teenagers, the
parents are walking a handful of steps behind because they're nervous.
They're and I get it, yeah, because there are some

(50:35):
wheels but you know why you didn't have to used
to in the neighborhood. When I grew up, the streets
were packed packed. Every house had of parents sitting out
in front handing out candy music, Halloween music was playing
that they were drinking a beer on their pat whatever,
but everybody. So everybody was watching out for everybody's kid.
And there was hundreds of kids going your shoulder to
shoulder in the middle of the street on the sidewalk.

(50:55):
Now you may get fifteen people and I'm in a
neighborhood with the yeah you know where I am. Oh yeah, dude,
it's like and they'll come at like four in the afternoon.
That's not Halloween to me, I remember being Halloween is
a mere shell of its former.

Speaker 4 (51:09):
So I remember being like probably eighth grade freshman year,
and I was leaving to go to a Halloween party
on Halloween night and there were like tractors with long
trailers and people sitting on bales of hay trigger treating everyone.

Speaker 5 (51:24):
Alloween used to be one of my friend because I like,
like it was a massive party in the entire neighborhood.
Look at it now. I know COVID had something to
do with it, which don't don't get me started on COVID,
but it's like, we can't let it go. It's like
ruined everything. Yeah, right, And even before then, I know
there's cycles out there, But when everybody's looking after and
you're staying in the neighborhood and going around, everybody was safe, Yes,

(51:44):
everybody was safe, and everybody's having and I'm telling you
it was it was you had to wait in line
when you went up to a house. Now you're begging
for people to come to your house. It's like and
some have lights off and you know their home, and
I understand that you know f them kids like you
like you do an apartment out right. But I love
Halloween because my dad and mom loved it. We decorate

(52:04):
and we have Halloween parties. And my mom would the
teenagers you have to go through like and you do
scavenger hunts on Halloween, huh, And I'd let you go
to different be you got to get this, bring it back,
and whoever wins the big prize at the end. I
freaking love Halloween and I still and I'll still do
all this in all the camp I should never go
to bed with extra candy. Yeah, that's why I've all
and I buy the you know then it is it's

(52:25):
greedy for me because I like the big candy bars
because when I used to go to house, I know,
you reach in there, grab three little the mini ones
and yeah they're cheaper and it's nice, and I get
those two, but I like the big bars because like
that's a that's a full meal. And I just I
love Halloween and it really does bum me out, man,
it does because Halloween to me, now if you if

(52:45):
I missed Halloween as even as an adult, like do
you want to travel?

Speaker 15 (52:48):
No?

Speaker 5 (52:48):
I want to stand here and I can. I want
to see the cod I want to scare kids and
I want to scare the adults. I want to laugh
and have a blast. Halloween sucks now, I remember, and
I hate and I decorate the house. We all do
it and everything the the do you remember the old
school trash bags that were that were orange with us
it was a pumpkin. Yeah, you filled them up with
leaves and you put them out in front of your
your house. All over you walk up, we got like

(53:09):
we got like wolf heads that are how at you
when you get right up past here? Still do And
my dad used to play music, and he'd come around
from behind you while you're at the door, and when
nobody would just at the right tim and I just
said to me, and he'd stand there like you know.
He was six five, about two sixty, so it was big.
I just Halloween sucks now it does trunk or treats.
I understand if you do that for a three year old.

(53:30):
But we got to the point where, because everybody's so
afraid of their own shadow, if all the neighborhoods would
just go trick or treating and people would look after
each other's kids and family like you used to, and
you could leave your door unlocked. But you leave now
for five minutes, you think somebody's gonna steal everything and
shoot you. I just I still won't operate at that.
I'm not COVID didn't change my feelings. Halloween's good. I
love Halloween. It was one of my favorites. Halloween's a bore. Now,

(53:53):
count you do yourself, affair. I'm gonna count how many
kids come to my house that night. Set the over
under it fifteen, I'll say about twenty five. Wow, when
it come to you, because they'll coming three or fours.
You it used to be like twenty five in the
first ten minutes. Oh and it was at night. Yeah,
at night, and you stay up till ten o'clock or
eleven aco four o'clock. I'm not even I'm not ready
to in the daylight. I understand the three year old

(54:15):
walking with their parents. I get it. I just I
we we we have we have screwed up these And
you're not allowed to have Halloween costumes at schools these
days now because some families offended that they wore a
ghost costume. What are you doing? Were a good Casper
kid doesn't no ghost, so it's gonna it's gonna scare him.
Keep your kid home that day. Yeah, Halloween needs nuts

(54:35):
at home. Look, dude, you got it.

Speaker 4 (54:37):
You have to recognize the ghost costumes, pronouns they them.

Speaker 5 (54:41):
Dude. Come on, I I just I loved Halloween and
I still will. I celebrate. I took it from Yeah,
I took it from you if they did. But I
just hate I hate it for the kids because kids
nowadays have no idea what Halloween was like with all
their friends. They have no I never had to worry.
Now you go home with two, which is good for
the Dannis appointment two. I didn't carry case. That's what

(55:05):

Speaker 4 (55:06):
Damn right, damn right we did. Let's get to the
steak out next right here on seven ninety.

Speaker 1 (55:12):
Back to the Sewan Salisbury Show. All right, Sean, what
are you hearing out there now?

Speaker 3 (55:21):
The Salisbury's stakeout sALS BF takeout on.

Speaker 1 (55:26):
The Sean Salisbury Show.

Speaker 4 (55:36):
Let's get to the steak out here on the Sean
Salisbury Show, Sean Brown and Tripoli. All right, let's let's
talk a little baseball, real quick, simple question, Sean, why
in the hell is there a five day layoff from
the Championship Series until the start of the World Series.

Speaker 5 (55:55):
I was thinking that the other day. I don't five days.

Speaker 4 (55:57):
There is absolutely, positively no reason the World Series couldn't
have started yesterday.

Speaker 5 (56:04):
I don't get it. You understand how I'm gonna tell
you this. You know, as far as viewing goes, you know,
baseball is at the top of my favorite sports. And
when we could talk baseball your round and without football,
and I'd be fine. I love football. But you know
we've talked about all. I don't need to tell you that.
I think it's obvious from our passion on here. How
much we love baseball.

Speaker 4 (56:23):
The lasts are The NLCS concluded on Sunday they could
have started this series yesterday.

Speaker 5 (56:32):
The whole baseball thing, the rules at times, it's soft.
I'm not saying every player. I'm not saying I'm not
even putting this on the players. It's it's rules. And
players didn't schedule this. No, who wants to wait that long?
Three days is plenty. Now do hockey how long they take?
But from the from the final game? Do they take

(56:52):
a week off? No? They don't. No. And do you know,
just along with that, I'm not saying football is a
tough guy that That's not my point. I'm not This
has nothing to do with the players. The rules have
created us to look at it like you're a gimmick
soft league. Well what do you what do we need
a week for? And I'm already honest to god, if
it was if it was two nondescript teams that that

(57:13):
let's just say, and I don't mean it's not fair
to say non descriptive. Let's say the Miami Marlins were
getting ready to play the give me an America, Uh,
Miami Marlin Toronto. Yeah, okay, Toronto in the World Series. God,
I would have already moved, I would have thought, and
with a weekend between, I would have lost all interest.
If you haven't already now with the Yankees Dodgers, dude,

(57:35):
I'm still still we talked about it. I'm gonna watch
it because it's historic World Series and this is you know,
from Brooklyn Dodge all the what they've played twelve times
in World Series, I think. But you know what, my
my passion start. I've started to think all baseball season's over. Yeah,
and it's the biggest, the biggest seven games for these guys,
some of in their lives and careers. And we're sitting here.

(57:55):
We gotta wait till Friday Friday. I literally can't. When
I last night, okay, what do I watch the NBA hockey? Oh?
And I it hit me again, I gotta wait till
Friday Friday Baseball.

Speaker 4 (58:05):
And I think, you know, obviously, it's two of the
largest markets in the country, right, it's West Coast, it's
East Coast, Northeast. I get it. It's two huge, huge organizations.
But like for the typical fan, they're doing other things
Friday night.

Speaker 5 (58:19):
Yes, and they said, what a stupid night to start.

Speaker 4 (58:21):
That's they're not going to the bars on Friday night
saying I want to go watch the Yankees in.

Speaker 5 (58:26):
High school football, right exactly, Like, for instance, I'm going
to see Josh Turner the you know, the is it
Josh Turner? The saying what one the country singer? Why
am I saying? Is it Josh Josh Turner?

Speaker 15 (58:36):
No?

Speaker 5 (58:36):
Is it's uh Josh Abbott, No, it's Gosh who second
at the home run? Dugout big? Oh? Hang on a second,
I'll get to it or you can help me with it.
I'm doing it. I thought it was Josh Turner might
lose in my mind. I mean he is country deep deep.

Speaker 10 (58:56):
Isn't that who this?

Speaker 6 (58:57):
Who?

Speaker 5 (58:58):
Isn't that it? Deep country voice?

Speaker 12 (59:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (59:00):
Joshurtner there you go, Yeah, yeah, that's on that's on
Friday night. Yeah. Oh, he's doing his greatest hits. Yeah,
you know what I'm saying. That's why, Yeah, Sewan, of course,
because I I mean we've talked about him on Peak. Yeah, exactly.
Base one.

Speaker 4 (59:12):
You're going to a concert Cody Johnson's playing up in
the Woodlands Friday night. You think he's gonna sell out,
It's gonna be for to thirty thousand people up there.

Speaker 5 (59:19):
You think thirty thousand people, thirty thousand aren't there going
to the high school football game Friday. I just don't.
I don't, and not the Texas matter. I mean, right,
I'm saying, or think about it, the Astros if they
were in be playing Friday night. Yeah, and that just
I just don't. Baseball. Baseball's created this this. I don't
know that. I don't know. It's it's gimmicked it. Yeah,

(59:41):
they've gimmed it. And I don't need to. You don't
no offense to baseball players. Honestly, you don't need a
week off, No, you know, a week off between the
last Give me three days and let's go play. One
of the things that I've never liked. You've been better
off starting on Wednesday night. I know, for Thursday night, yesterday,
started last night. Right, you are more, But I don't know.

Speaker 4 (59:57):
I also have an issue like with coll and it's
still a little different now because of the twelve teams
in the playoff system for the college football people. College football,
when you get that month off when you're in the
in the final four or whatever, I hate that.

Speaker 10 (01:00:10):
I do too.

Speaker 5 (01:00:10):
It's too long. Bowl season. Yeah, it's too long.

Speaker 4 (01:00:12):
Holy hell, they're too completely teams by the time they
play each other.

Speaker 5 (01:00:15):
That's exactly right, and it's too much build up. Yeah,
now that we got twelve teams, we're going to use
some of that time and play it later in January.
Use some of that time where we're playing playoff, just
like you're supposed to keep the interest going on a
regular basis. And oh, by the way, as we go
to break switching switching sports, Joel Embiid's not going to
play a back to back game this year. He's decided.

(01:00:37):
He said that, and I guess Shaq and Charles I
went in on him a little bit, but I'm pretty
sure the decision he's making is you he won't do
back to backs this year. Look it up, tell me
if I'm wrong. I read the headline and I think
Charles and Shack got on it a little bit last night.
Are you serious? So we're already saying out in front
of this as an MVP in the league that needs you,

(01:00:57):
and you know what, if one of those games makes
the difference in whether you get home court advantage, will
Hi just many times we've seen it, is it really
that hard to go back to back. Let's let's talk
about that.

Speaker 4 (01:01:06):
Also, there's a legend in Major League Baseball that suddenly
passed away, so we'll have to discuss that as well.

number to join Holly, Good morning.

Speaker 18 (01:03:37):
Good morning, guys. How's it going. Just wanted to get
Seawn's thought. Some sad news I ran across a while
ago that Fernando Valenzoya is a great Dodgers pitcher from
the eighties, has passed away at sixty three years old.
And I'm not quite old enough to remember him in
his prime, but i do remember him at the end
of his career, and he's Nola. Ryan was the first

(01:03:59):
right handed pitcher. It was just that power pitcher that
could just strike you out at any time. Brendo Balinzuela
was that first guy I remember saying as a LESSI
that just would have that hot arm go up above
his head and that called in his delivery and just
turn that ball over and just make guys look like folds.
And I just really I remember him, and I kind

(01:04:21):
of his career just I followed, just went back and
followed his career before that. And John, you, being a
last long Dodger fan, I just wanted to get your
thoughts on him.

Speaker 5 (01:04:28):
And I'll hang up and listen to day Hall. Thank you.
I got to see him in his prime when he
was doing when I would, I'd go to Dodger Stadium
regularly because a couple of teams buddies or his teammates
were friends of mine. I'm going to tell you something.
You are so right. He had with the data. We
don't hear it talked about anymore. But he threw a
screwball is what they call it. We're lefty where it
would you know? He snapped his wrist inside and break

(01:04:50):
heart away from the right handed hitter as a lefty
and vice versa the other way. Fernando Mania is what
they called it. Did you go to you go? I'm
telling you he was as popular as any athlete in
southern California at the time. Now, remember Marcus Allen was
running Heisman trophies, Showtime was doing their thing laker wise,

(01:05:10):
Fernando Valezuela the two guys that kept you know, when
Fernando was there, and then when Doc Gooden, when those
two and Doc good and Fernando were pitching a dude,
you when they when you got to see those guys
in person at their young ages, right, that's what I'm
talking about. I think Fernando was twenty and Doc was
like nineteen or twenty one in that they were just
mowing people down and and Doc was overpowering, and Fernando

(01:05:31):
could throw the ball through a coffee can size or
baseball size window were whenever he wanted, and he was
beloved the Hispanic community. Dude, you'd have a game of
Dodge Stadium and it was he he literally it was
You came from far and wide to watch Fernando pitch.
It's sad because he's only sixty three years old. Three
man and a beloved human being. Been on the Hispanic

(01:05:52):
broadcast for years for the Dodgers. You got to put
him in the long line. I know that there's Cofax
in Drysdale, but for the time I saw with the
period of time I was able to watching in person.
Fernando Veveezuela was as popular as a guy, and he
was a dominant pitcher and that hesitation at the top
where he'd look up into the sky, you know, with
his wind up, he was he was well beyond his

(01:06:14):
years and is a you know, a twenty year old
pitch in Major League Baseball. You felt like he'd been
doing it for half a dozen years already. It's a
sad day for Dodger Baseball. And I know at the
end he wasn't broadcasting the playoffs because he had to
take time off to get away from it. I don't
think now. You saw pictures of him and it was
like some scary I mean, the pictures didn't look good,

(01:06:35):
but you didn't. I didn't know it was going to
be that urgent, right, And obviously went home to be
with you know, spend time with his family in his
last days. And it's a sad thing because Fernando Valizuez
number one, way too young, but he was dominant and
I'm going to tell you they used him as pinch hitter.
He was he was Bob Gibson after Bob given what

(01:06:55):
I'm talking about coming to the plate. He was what's
our guy? Left handed, left handed stud from San Francisco
all those years in Arizadison, the mass and Bumgarner. Who
you'd you you could stick him out there and say
go till you take Ford Beth. He would pay. He'd
he pinched hit before. Fernando val Vealezuela was a hell
of a hitter. And but his pitching and from the

(01:07:16):
left side, and at such a young age he came
in and he was magnificent. Sad time, sad time for
his family and for a Dodger great and a legend
in Los Angeles and Fernando Valenzuela. I considered it an
honor to go watch him in person.

Speaker 4 (01:07:29):
Valenzuela retired in nineteen ninety seven, and he still remains
among the franchise leader and Dodgers sistory and wins with
one hundred and forty one strikeouts with one thy, seven
hundred and fifty nine innings, pitch two, three hundred and
forty eight and two thirds innings starts, three hundred and
twenty complete games one oh seven and shutouts twenty nine.

Speaker 5 (01:07:46):
He died at the age of sixty three. No cause
of death has been released.

Speaker 19 (01:07:48):
He did.

Speaker 4 (01:07:49):
He was hospitalized with some issues, but those were also
not detailed. So sad news man just for the pure
game of baseball, but also obviously.

Speaker 5 (01:08:00):
Mexican born, and you know it unifar between it.

Speaker 4 (01:08:03):
You see Mexican pitchers these days do what he did
just to actually just be in the league.

Speaker 5 (01:08:08):
He was, and the the love. It wasn't just the
Mexican community that loved him, right, but his following. Yeah, Fernando,
it was if Fernando could have told Dodger fans, hey, listen,
I'm gonna walk to San Francisco and they'd have gotten
lined behind him and walked with him. Yeah, it was
when you're in the stadium, it was. It was a
treat man. Fernando Valenzela was special and God bless his family.

(01:08:32):
Sixty three man, just yeah, too young. Sixty is supposed
to be the new fifty, right, and that's way too young.
You know, people are living longer, taking better care of
their bodies, and sometimes there's just certain things you can't
beat and it's a bummer. It's too bad.

Speaker 12 (01:08:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:08:47):
He was a very impactful person in the Dodger community
and to people and was always the same, just good
old Fernando Valens with him.

Speaker 4 (01:08:53):
He uh pitched in the majors for seventeen seasons. He
then was the Spanish language broadcaster for the Dodgers, which
started in two thousand and three.

Speaker 5 (01:09:02):
Sean you mentioned this.

Speaker 4 (01:09:03):
He stepped away from broadcasting before the start of these
playoffs to focus on his health. So obviously there were
some issues going on, and unfortunately Fernando Valezuela passed away
at the age of sixty three. Sad, sad stuff man
from the game of baseball, because he was an absolute legend.

Speaker 5 (01:09:22):
Oh dude, a beast, Yeah, a beast, and you wanted
you know how you want bulldogs when he went out there,
said well, there's seven for sure, I'm getting seven out
of him tonight. That's Fernando alazuel.

Speaker 4 (01:09:32):
Eleven complete games in his nineteen eighty one season. Eleven.
Some pitchers won't even have eleven.

Speaker 5 (01:09:39):
In their career. You want to how many these days?
How many times we went to Dodger Stadium my freshman
year in college, man, and they were, you know, World
Series team, and Fernando was just every year a cy
young guy was.

Speaker 4 (01:09:51):
It was a blast to watch him pitch. Sucks man, yep,
sure just sucks. Condolences to his uh, his family. Man,
It's it's sad, sad day for the game of baseball.

I mean like it's been like grand like happy Rising.
I just say rising. I thought that's where he was going.

Speaker 4 (01:12:50):
I thought it was I thought he was subtly trying
to get me. Now I've never heard grand Rising before.
I'm gonna start saying that to you guys, especially when

Speaker 5 (01:13:04):
Be here morning. That's good morning, good morning, good morning.
I love that saying yeah, good morning, it's a great morning.
I'm just glad TRIPLEY was able to run it back
to back for us. Well, you know what, embiid can't.
Can you imagine going into a season before the season
starts and tell everybody I don't think I can go
back to back back back instead of playing it by ear, Okay,

(01:13:25):
you're a little tired. One game. We need to give
you a rest. You played seventy games. Give your rest.
Can you imagine going in and already deciding that you're
gonna take You're gonna take what. I can't go back
to back. Can't do it, man, can't can't do my
job to night. And the fact that they let them, yeah,
that they enable them, that might be the worst part.
A bitch ass move for a great player that's so weak. Hey,
we need you and I remember look.

Speaker 4 (01:13:47):
I said it, man, I said it before the season.
I'm not playing back to back to backers.

Speaker 5 (01:13:52):
How about well, we're not going to play you back
to pay you back to back games either try that
whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa cb a. Man, I'm doing.

Speaker 2 (01:14:02):
Well.

Speaker 5 (01:14:02):
I gotta get mines. Didn't they didn't they?

Speaker 4 (01:14:04):
I thought Adam Silver was going to start fining teams
when they're stars and players didn't play back to backs?

Speaker 5 (01:14:11):
Hard to find what you created with Lebron's help? Oh well, yeah, true?
I mean stephry Well and Kawhi Leonard and the rest
of it. About the this, Hey, Michael Jordan, what are
you doing? Kobe? What are you gonna do? Well? I'm
a little when's the season start? By the week. I
don't think I can go back to back this year to.

Speaker 1 (01:14:35):
Achilles, Yeah, I don't think.

Speaker 5 (01:14:36):
I don't think I can go back to Hey. Yeah,
but you guys got You've got a game against the
Knicks in in January. I mean Patrick you yeah, man,
I can't.

Speaker 4 (01:14:48):
I can't give you that, dude. John Starks called you out. Yeah,
that's fine. I can't get back to back, No, man,
they can't do it. Well, dude, we're a game out
of first place.

Speaker 5 (01:14:55):
We need Look, Mammy hammy soft tissue, man, Yeah, it
goes out. You get me a dog, right, I can imagine.
You can't go back to back when you're exhausted, you're
coming out of the fluid, you're tired, and you've had
you just scored fifty and it's in the game, went
to triple overtime in the next day. Is a day game,
I don't know if they even have those anymore, but
a night game, but a back to back or you
know the point I'm hyperbolic. Yeah, hey, okay, maybe then

(01:15:19):
you wake up that day say coaches, you need the
night off. The great performance by you. If we need
you late in the game, fine, but yeah, take sit
over there and relax. I'm gonna take it off.

Speaker 4 (01:15:29):
Now.

Speaker 5 (01:15:29):
It's three months in advance. Can you imagine? Can you
imagine just friggin stop it. But I'll tell you what
if you said, oh, you're taking back to you already
announcing you're taking back to it. Yeah, I worked out
with the team. Okay, well on that second game, you're
not getting paid. Yeah. Do you think he played back
to back? If you had to do it like a
construction worker, no work, no pay, brother, yeah, would be playing.

(01:15:52):
Let me hear shack it. Please tell me shack. I
know that I read it I didn't hear it. Please
tell me Shack and Barclay. It's pretty good. Unport into
his ass. And this is Charles, such a great player.
It's such a soft early season decision.

Speaker 4 (01:16:06):
Charles Barkley Shaquille O'Neil talking about Joel Embiid.

Speaker 8 (01:16:09):
I said, man, but Jack, I gonna agree with you.
I was so disappointed in Joel Embiid saying he wasn't
gonna play back.

Speaker 10 (01:16:17):
To back game.

Speaker 8 (01:16:19):
Ernie, you're the best, You're one of the three or
four or five best players in the world. You cannot say,
as a leader of that team, I'm not gonna play
certain games. That's not the way to start the season. Now,
if you start the season, you get some bumps and bruges.
But as the best player on that team and the leader,

(01:16:39):
I would never go into a season saying I'm not
gonna play back to back game. I thought that was
a bad message. I was very disappointed in Joel Embiid
and not only that, And it doesn't make sense. The
league isn't that physical for him to say that. He's
a picking popper. He's not a big guy, you know.
Me and Charles try to get him to play it
being said, Oh, the game is different when I playing that.
You picking Pop, you don't get double, you don't get trip,

(01:17:00):
you don't get flagran File. There's no reason to say
I'm not playing back to back and he doesn't have
to play a lot of minutes because they got the
best backup sending the lead. You know, I'm a big
drumming fan. If you playing back to back, say hey, guys,
I'm only gonna play twenty five minutes this night. The
drumming to me, he's underrated pick up by the Sixers.

Speaker 5 (01:17:18):
They're both spot on, and I didn't hear that until
they and Charlie echoed the sentiments. That's what I said,
decide that day you're beat up, you only need twenty
don't don't tell me, and tell me in October before
you play the game. You're not playing back to backs
this year. And then the fact that the team supports
let it happen. What would a coward move and disappointed

(01:17:39):
it's weak? Yeah, and he's and Shack's right picking Pop.
You ain't getting in there and having a lame beer,
throw elbows to your throat, and Rick Mahorn beat on
you the whole day. He's a jump shooter. Yeah, he's
a great player. He is a freaking great player. He's
a jump shooter, pick pop, knock it down from fifteen
feet and a good one. Hence why we're bitching about it,

(01:18:02):
because we want to see more leader best player taking
this one off. No, sorry, the ball ain't heavy and
forty eight minutes. You can give me two nights, and
even if you can't give me forty minutes the next night,
you can give me twenty or at least be available
twenty five already made. What if you're feeling great and
you want the moment I think I'll play today, is
it going to be based on the competition? Come on, man,
bad message to your teammate. I just I to your teams.

(01:18:26):
I don't get it, man, I never will. I just don't. Well,
what do you you did? That's a boot? No, it's not.
In fact, Well, if that's what it takes to get
guys to actually play and play every day when they're
healthy and have to play back to back a couple
times during the year, if that's what it takes to say,
well that's too old school, let me stay old school.
Then if that's what we're into, that eventually they're going

(01:18:48):
to be playing fifty games and getting paid for eighty two.
Screw you, Yeah, exactly, I did. I got to tell
you normally, I'm I'm not on athlete side on this. No,
not not one ounce, no, not one out. You're taken.
You need that many days off or back to back.
You can't do it in baseball. You're a you're a
second basement and you can only play one hundred and
forty games a year because you're tired thirty plus more.

(01:19:11):
Now save it. Save it for somebody who's paying attention
to that. You know, you know to say injuries, yes, hurt,
no play, So what you get paid to do? Man,
it drives me frigging crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:19:20):
You know who plays second base? Oh oh they alve.

Speaker 5 (01:19:24):
Well two his or when he's heard, he's heard, when
he's playing, he's played. I'll get a day off, but
AL two as also along and it still does his thing.
No questions there. I don't think AL two b come
out during the scene and say I can't go. I
can't play three games in a row.

Speaker 4 (01:19:37):
I think the worst part about the whole Joel embiid
is first, there's two things for me. You set it
so far in advance before the season started. I say
so far, you said it prior to the season starting,
and the fact that the team is going to allow it.

Speaker 5 (01:19:50):
Yeah, get your dress out there and play a player
empowerment and enabling these guys to decide what they want
to do. How much are And then if you said
anything about it, I'm not going to pay you. He
can't see me, they'd be what do you talking about?
You do'n can pay me. I'm the best player on
the team. Yeah, so play right, and Shack's right. Basically,
what Shack was saying to embat from my translation is
your soft. You're soft. You play a soft brand of basketball.

(01:20:13):
You're great at what you do, but it's soft. Yeah,
And make no mistake, Joe LMBT ain't dominating you in
the lower block physically. He made great moves around the basket,
great feet. He ain't dominating you, Okay, he ain't. No,
it's not happening. He's a seven foot jump shooter. Yeah, okay,
and a damn good one. But yeah, save the back
to backs are gonna hurt you.

Speaker 4 (01:20:33):
It's ridiculous. Stop, yeah, just stop. Let's get it into
the eight o'clock hour. Brian Cashman, general manager for the
New York Yankees. What did he say about the Astros

Seven one three seven ninety is the number two joins
get outs the phone lines, Jay, good morning.

Speaker 5 (01:23:08):
Hey, how y'all doing feling? Were you being Jay? Were
you being big dog man?

Speaker 11 (01:23:13):
Like I said, Man, I'm gonna pull coaching and teaching
and so you know, I don't really get to hear y'all,
but like twenty minutes on my community to work, so
you know, it's one of those things.

Speaker 5 (01:23:23):
How's coaching going, man?

Speaker 11 (01:23:26):
All they went good? Uh we lost our ass games,
so we ain't winning district. But uh it was a
good astrail. That's my first time doing it. I really
loved it. Haven't got paid for it yet, but it's coming.
But but yeah, I enjoyed it.

Speaker 2 (01:23:38):
Man.

Speaker 11 (01:23:38):
It was a nice experience.

Speaker 5 (01:23:40):
Well that's good man, it's good. U good to hear
from you.

Speaker 6 (01:23:42):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:23:42):
What you got on your mind about this? Joel and
beat stuff? Uh?

Speaker 11 (01:23:46):
Just to me, it's gonna lead into something much more
and more tragic for the NBA because if he's if
he's he, if he's telling us he's only gonna play
back to back, then that means he gets to choose.
He's gonna end up choosing which teams he's played. So
he played Charlotte and then it's one game, and then
in this game against Philly, somebody that's the continued for
the playoffs. Is he gonna sit up there and choose

(01:24:08):
to play charge Charlotte and I play Philly and you
know it's gonna be national TV against Philly. I'm sure
like he gonna.

Speaker 5 (01:24:16):
Are you talking about which one of which one of
the two? Is he gonna decide to play?

Speaker 11 (01:24:19):
Exactly exactly? So I'm pretty sure he gonna play against
Charlotte because he wants to put up sixty points, But
he probably come back and say, I ain't gonna play
against Philly. So I just wanted to go lead to that.
Are you gonna choose?

Speaker 5 (01:24:32):
Yeah? What did Jay would it be if he had
back to back with say a team they're supposed to
hammer and UH have to play against Nicola Jokic, Which
one of the two you choose in you know what
I say, instead of the competitive like go bury the MVP,
the other guys go, would he choose the one that
was a little easier on him. Yeah, I think it's weak.

Speaker 11 (01:24:50):
Because I think he's done it before. I think I
think like two years ago, when they was up both
of us for the m v P race, he set
out one of them. He sat out against Jokis and
it was on national TV and it made a big
deal with the fans in the media. So that shows
what type of person he is right off top of it,
Like I said, this is it ain't surprising coming from him. Honestly,
when I heard about it, I was just like, Okay,

(01:25:12):
they don't surprise me that it came from him because
he's done it before. But now it's gonna be other
other players gonna start doing the same thing, like you know,
like to me, like you said, it's a it's a
B I T C A move. It really is.

Speaker 5 (01:25:27):
And the fact that the organization's j just said Okay, cool,
no big deal exactly exactly.

Speaker 11 (01:25:33):
I don't understand how you can't go to him like
now you're not doing that, Papa bitch to do I
guarantee you probably be like, nah, you ain't doing that, bro,
Like you come up with something else, you go go
out there for twenty minutes like I said, you gonna
do something, but you're not. Finna just tell us up
front that you're not playing. It's ridiculous.

Speaker 5 (01:25:49):
Yeah, before the season even starts. What if you're feeling
great and energetic and rolling. But let me put it
to you this way. Okay, how many games do you
got to play to qualify for the MVP? The awards
says it's sixty five, sixty or sixty five, whatever it is.
Let's say I haven't looked at their schedule, but I

(01:26:10):
can damn well bet your sweet ass that if they
if he had played one game, but there was a
two gamer back to backer coming up, and it was
the last back to back of season and it's the
last let's just say, I know it's a lot of hyperbole.
Put it this way. If it was deciding that the
last game of a back to back was that he

(01:26:30):
qualified for the MVP, he'd play exactly he would play,
and you and I both know it, so no doubt
about it. So to tell me this, now, save it.

Speaker 6 (01:26:43):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:26:44):
Once you do this, you can't come back to me
and say I'm tough guy. O you save it? Okay,
you do? Yeah, Because if you'd have done that to Kobe,
he'd just slapped you right in your face. You know
what I'm saying. He'd look at you like you're a
nut job. Jordan Byrd, I mean we can go Shack
and Barkley. I understand injury. If you're heard, take some rest,
if you're tired, play twenty minutes. Don't tell me in

(01:27:04):
October you can't play back to backs anytime this season? Nah, embiid.
That's a step down. If you ask me, that's that.
That's just weak.

Speaker 11 (01:27:12):
It's well before I go, before I go. Just his
own teammate, Paul George went through that horrific injury and
worked his tail off to get back on the court,
and I never heard him say anything like I'm gonna
sit back to back or whatever. He's went through too.
I think of bad injuries. Yeah, it just shows the grid.
It just shows the grid of certain guys and what's up.

(01:27:32):
Like I said, they made of a different cloth nowadays
than when we grew up.

Speaker 5 (01:27:35):
You ain't lying, man, and it's not a good it
ain't a good pat there you go when it comes
to toughness. Thanks to you. Great stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:27:41):
Let's keep rolling about Joel embiid Ryan, good morning, good morning.

Speaker 5 (01:27:47):
Hey.

Speaker 20 (01:27:48):
Just to kind of piggyback off of a jay with that,
how people are built from a different cloth.

Speaker 5 (01:27:54):
Now, my dad, always, my dad, I.

Speaker 6 (01:27:57):
Always talk about records that won't be broken.

Speaker 20 (01:28:00):
Cal Ripken two thousand and six hundred thirty two games
consecutively played.

Speaker 5 (01:28:10):
That's never going to be broken, No, it is. I agree,
And look at hey, look at Farre's durability. That's gonna
be hard to I mean Farv's durability was through the
roof playing hurt and injured and have no business. Yes, no,
even if you were healthy, nobody's gonna do that because
they'll just, nah, you need a day off, you've played
ten games in a row. Take it out there. They wouldn't.
They won't let him touch that record. But if a

(01:28:32):
guy wanted it, Nah, we didn't take a day off.
Why I get paid to go to work? I just
I don't get it, man, I never will, And nobody's
ever gonna convince me that that's the now. If you're
forty and you're a basketball player, and it's given me
sixty games as your one hundred percent. I get it,
and you like you out there. Good leadership, But come
on now to tell me that before that, how about

(01:28:52):
just I'd respect him more if he just woke up
that day and had the flu and faked the flu
and stood it and and hung out out of a
back to back game. So he at least four said
that his ankle was hurting, he couldn't play. Lie to us.
Then if that's what you're gonna do, don't tell me beforehand.
You've already got it premeditated that you can't play him
back to back games. So I want Derrick Henry. I
want Derek Henry to come out and say I can

(01:29:14):
play Sunday, but I'm not playing in a Thursday in
that game, and tell me. And I'm not tell me that.

Speaker 20 (01:29:19):
Early accusing Bregman of anything. I'm not accusing Bregmant of anything.
But just tell me he's on your elbow wrong and cool,
you need a day to get better.

Speaker 6 (01:29:28):
Cool, take that day?

Speaker 5 (01:29:29):
Yeah? Yeah, what would we say to Derrick Henry, Hey Man,
he played Sunday, He's going to just take Thursdays off.
He's not going to play a back to backer we'd
look at him like he was soft, and there ain't
nothing soft about him, because you know what Dereck Henry
wouldn't do. She wouldn't do that, He wouldn't do it.
That's exactly right. Appreciate the call, Ryan, Yeah, Ryan, great point.
Get to Roger. Roger, welcome in.

Speaker 6 (01:29:49):
Good morning gentlemen.

Speaker 10 (01:29:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 21 (01:29:51):
I just want to reatter with these guys are talking about. So,
you know, these young players that you know, they're pretty
impressionable at that age. So he said that kind of
message out and just right before the even the season starts.
I'm not playing back to back games. You know, what's
that to say to a young player. I'm not saying
like Shangoon or somebody like that, but some of the
young prayers is oh, okay, well he's doing it.

Speaker 6 (01:30:13):
He's a leader of the squad, and I don't know
I can do it.

Speaker 10 (01:30:16):
You know, I understand you got to play. You gotta
play it on your keep first.

Speaker 21 (01:30:19):
And then you know what, later on you said a
message like, hey, I'm just starting to play back to
back games. It's just you know, and how does that
do for the revenue of the of the league. I mean,
that can't be good.

Speaker 12 (01:30:29):
I know the.

Speaker 21 (01:30:30):
Contractor through the roof and and and I guess people
are going to the games regardless, But I just don't
see how that's gonna be uh moving forward, and how
that's gonna have the revenue of the league when you
got players like that that are empowered to do so.
And it's just it just doesn't make any sense, uh,
financially or just you know, from uh from uh you know,

(01:30:53):
from a from the mindset of a of a guy
who's supposed to be uh, the face of a squad
to flay some a team. I just don't get it.
And yeah, So the reason why those those records are
not going to be uh, I'm not gonna be touches
because nobody's playing the it is anymore, playing long enough anymore.
Nobody's getting like lower lower Ryan's record that will ever

(01:31:15):
be beaten, Elijah One's block shot record that don't ever
be touched because nobody's playing the minutes anymore. And that's
just it, all right, guys, I a go ahead to
chocktown man, Richard, some luck.

Speaker 4 (01:31:25):
Good luck, have fun, bro Man, thank you. You talked
about Brett farre streak. Yeah, two hundred and ninety seven
straight regular season games started, Yeah, September twenty seventh, nineteen
ninety two.

Speaker 5 (01:31:41):
In the streak ended May twelfth, twenty ten. Well, unfortunately
for Brett. And there's a price to be paid for that, right.
But if he if you asked him right now, would
you do it again? I can. I can tell you that,
you know what he'd say? Absolutely? Yeah, absolutely, I just
to me, it's it. I'm gonna tell you right if

(01:32:02):
it was if this was Alpie or Jalen Green said
I can't go back to backs, I would destroy him
right here on this air. Yeah. So I it wouldn't
because old they're the home team or not. He I
would not personal just to basketball. I well, you'd get
the same treatment as mbat I did. But you know what,

(01:32:24):
I don't think you Doka is gonna.

Speaker 4 (01:36:06):
Anything starts with lil you gotta be in on that.
Little you have to man biscuit, welcome in, Hey.

Speaker 6 (01:36:13):
Top of the morning, My brothers happening. Hey, didn't a
little dirt do another country song too?

Speaker 12 (01:36:19):
Though?

Speaker 6 (01:36:19):

Speaker 5 (01:36:25):
Billy Ray Cyrus. Did Little Dirk and Billy Ray do
a cut together? No? They did? I know he did
one with little nas Little Nasa.

Speaker 6 (01:36:36):
Maybe a little man.

Speaker 5 (01:36:37):
Okay, you talking about the Old Town Road? Yeah, yeah,
that's that's that's a little nas.

Speaker 6 (01:36:42):
As little Okay, I'm like you little there's.

Speaker 5 (01:36:47):
Too bid here, dude, What happened? What? What what happens if
he grows a foot and I mean young mc what
happens when he hit sixty? Does he become media manager? Old,
but a lot of Litt's brother. I'm trying to keep
up with you, like any of them keep up with
its truth.

Speaker 6 (01:37:06):
Hey, let me say it is a shot. I don't
think it's an MB thing. I think it's a seventy
six ers thing. And I think that this ain't this
is gonna be the first time, right, because we had
a team. We had a team up in Toronto and
they played that guy just a certain amount of games
or whatever, and they went all the way and won
the championship.

Speaker 5 (01:37:24):
Yeah, which was terrible for the NBA because they validated
why they rested their players. Yeah, you're exactly right.

Speaker 6 (01:37:30):
And lo and behold, guess who was the coach and
who was the coach of Philadelphia.

Speaker 5 (01:37:35):
Here's a shot. There, you go, good point by you.

Speaker 14 (01:37:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:37:39):
So I don't think it's because here's the thing with
MB man, he's a fragile guy. Man. He I think
maybe one time he's been healthy when they made the playoffs,
so they trying to get into the finish line and
be healthy.

Speaker 5 (01:37:50):
Yeah, hasn't he had a lot of lower lower legs
stuff like as has it been the lower legs? Yeah?
Black back, Yeah, his back's been bothering for a handful
of years. It feels like maybe I'm wrong, but a
few like it, doesn't it, So I guess so you
think they went to him and he said, yeah, okay,
that's fine.

Speaker 6 (01:38:05):
Yeah, I've been listening to the NBA radio and they
they were talking to Moray and nurse talked because what
happened last year, you know, like you say, they put
that new room in that you had to play a
certain amount of games. So he trying to push through
it and he ended up really getting hurt. And so
by the time the playoffs came around, he was shadow
of himself. He's dragging his leg or whatever. So they

(01:38:25):
went to him, hey, man, look, we need your health
for the playoffs. And so that's when they came up
with some kind of form or whatever.

Speaker 5 (01:38:33):
But I would like him to just fool me, wouldn't you?
Would you like him just just don't tell me this
in October, biscuit, you know, fool me it full, fool
me in November or March. Would you take it too off?
It's like, oh man, my back's bothering. We're gonna ge
him the day off. I mean, we might figure it out. Hey,
if your backs bother there like three.

Speaker 6 (01:38:52):
Back in the old day. Like all of a sudden,
you pop up on the end of report. Hey man,
he's something wrong with it. He had a tweak of
his ankle in practic.

Speaker 5 (01:39:00):
You know that was that that bet he was up
too late at the club. Yeah, and that bet he
was too late at the club, too late, you know,
Buddy's Yeah. No, they were out till four in the
morning and a little tired. Can't get there for that
afternoon game on a Sunday on CBS with Dick Stockton
calling the game. You're right, man, it's just full me
a little bit. It's crazy.

Speaker 6 (01:39:19):
It's crazy, and I don't And to your point, though,
I don't know what they tried to put that sixty
five game thing in there to, uh for you to
qualify for the max deals and awards and stuff. But
hey man, these dudes don't care about that.

Speaker 5 (01:39:34):
Man.

Speaker 6 (01:39:35):
I don't know what the NBA gonna do.

Speaker 7 (01:39:37):
Man.

Speaker 6 (01:39:37):
At some point, see like the net boys don't come
to Hey man, look at him. I can get some money,
bag man, because every time we got a prime time game,
somebody missing.

Speaker 5 (01:39:45):
Yeah, you're stealing from us. We'd like that back. We'd
like the old you know Buyer's remorse, Man, can you
give it back to us? Because we want the full
you know, as we know. That's why the networks are
fired up about this World series. They get the Yankees, Dodgers,
they want those best players out there. So yeah, I
just i'd like, you know, tell me the dog ate
your homework. Okay, just don't don't tell me October.

Speaker 6 (01:40:05):
Okay, Biscus, I didn't hear what you're saying. What do
you think about the thing in LA last night with
the father and son and what's should take? One thing?
I will say J J Riddick, I didn't know he
had Nate mcmill and a Scottie Brooks on his staff.

Speaker 5 (01:40:23):
Wise, mill just looked like.

Speaker 6 (01:40:24):
A much better coach team last night.

Speaker 1 (01:40:27):
We'll go forward.

Speaker 5 (01:40:28):
But those are two really frigging good assistance. I think
Nate McMillan's Nate McMillan deserves far more credit than he gets.
He's I think he's awesome, and Scotty Brooks knows he's
put together some winners. That's a good bench for me, Biscuit.
And thanks for the call. I'll answered for you right now.
I Uh, I think Brian and I both agreed that listen.
I didn't get I wasn't emotional for last night. I

(01:40:49):
thought it was cool because I think about my two
boys and my daughter and being the NBA would be like,
how cool would have been to be in a job
where you could take that pride, whether even even if
it's not that or they get into like broadcasting. Yeah,
if all of a sudden, my son and we were
working side by side in the broadcast with right, we've
done podcasting together. When I talk, you're hired, and it's
like I've been in at twenty five thirty years. All

(01:41:10):
of a sudden, he's an exit. How cool is that? Yeah,
like Joe and Jack Buck when they get you know,
that kind of stuff. Oh emotion if it was me,
hell yeah, And I get why Lebron's the emotion would
be for them. But I think for me, Biscuit, the
reason why I wasn't emotional about it, like, man, it
getting your feels is because they've been talking about it
for years. Hell, he was twelve and we're thinking, Okay,
he's going to wait it out. And I just said, Biscuit,

(01:41:32):
I said, lebron will still be playing when Bronny's out
of the league. That's probably with good Lebroadby six he's
still dunking and scoring twenty five and Brody will be
done with his career, So good on them. I think
it's great father son stuff. I would love that with
my kids, but and very few get to do it
and last as long as Lebron has. But I wasn't
emotional about it. I just thought it was cool. Yeah,
at the end of the day, it's it's cool, right.

(01:41:55):
I think we've been fatigued by it because we've been
warned for it for a decade.

Speaker 4 (01:41:59):
We've been talking about it during the off season for
months now.

Speaker 5 (01:42:04):
We knew it was coming. He was a freshman in
high school. With him, Lebron's gonna wait it out till
his kid's in the NBA. We've been so that's why
the emotions, you know, how something comes up and it's
like the chase is better than the destination, right, you know,
and the journey and you finally got there and it
was like anti climactic. It's cool, but they've built it
up so much. I feel like it was a ten
year build up. Yeah, and so that was it. But
I there's no doubt if you're Lebron you go. You

(01:42:27):
gotta you know, being with pride right that that's your boy,
and and the son saying, man, how cool is it
that I watched my pops and he's a you know,
been a he's a top three player in the history
of this game, and I get to play with him. Yeah,
after we're shooting in the backyard on a hoop, he
had to lower for me at some point. You know,
that's pretty cool.

Speaker 4 (01:42:44):
And also the just the longevity of Lebron James career
and him be able to stay healthy for the most
part to get to where he's at today, Like, that's
a pretty cool feat his father's son.

Speaker 5 (01:42:52):
Cool thing you talk about your pops, my pops, you know.
But the real true part of this is just how
long he's been doing it, Lebron at a high level,
and you know what, he's still doing it. It's not
like we're see the guy's averaging fourteen a game and
he's just an average player. The guy tomorrow can go
out and get forty and it's it's it's it's actually,

(01:43:14):
he's one of the biggest beasts when it comes to
just the way his body is performed.

Speaker 12 (01:43:18):
Now.

Speaker 5 (01:43:18):
I know he gets load, man, but when you think
about it, it's it's nothing short of phenomenal that he's
still doing this at a high level. And put it
this way, his kid will never be able to beat him.
You know how co comes up this eventually the son Bronny,
this son his other one. Yeah, I'm Bronnie will as
ten years from now. The way that guy takes his

(01:43:40):
kid will never be able to beat him. No, he won't.
Now that's that's that's something with lebron Man. What's his
younger name, Bryce, He's supposed to be like, that's what
I was going to ask you, guys. I thought he
was the best one of the families that's not named
his dad. Yeah, that's actually listen, the thoughts, the chance
of him living up to most of these start living
up to what the dad does. And when you're that good,
it's come on, man, I know then that mean you're

(01:44:03):
you're you're the second best player of all time or
replace your dad. Yeah, I mean it's not bad, that's okay.
It's a lot of pressure to put on a kid.
That is the feeling insince he came out of the womb. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (01:44:16):
Yeah, let's let's talk about Brian Cashman GM for the Yankees.
He was on a podcast yesterday with Chris mad Dog Russo,
and for whatever reason, he brought up the Houston Astros
as they get ready to compete in the World Series.

Speaker 5 (01:44:31):
Why that's next?

Speaker 4 (01:44:34):
The Seawan Salisbury Show continued, We'll be a dance party
all day. Yes, I will be here. I work for
a living, You damned right. I mean, I'm just making
sure I know you're here every day. You don't need load, man,
I just was making.

Speaker 5 (01:44:47):
Sure it's Friday, it's next Friday. You didn't tell everybody. Yeah,
it's right, but you didn't tell everybody. Well you told
me back in February. Oh right, that's right. Yeah, February
you said, I think I'm I'm gonna be tired on.

Speaker 4 (01:44:59):
The on the day Thursday, Yeah, Thursday, Halloween, Yeah, Halloween.

Speaker 5 (01:45:04):
Tomorrow's not Halloween.

Speaker 4 (01:45:05):
No, No, I'm talking about next Oh no, what I'm saying
like tomorrow, I said tomorrow I'm gonna be.

Speaker 5 (01:45:08):
Uh, I'm gonna be I think I'm gonna be a
little tired. But twenty fourth so I'm gonna take it off. Yeah, yeah,
I don't. I don't do back to go back to
I don't do back to off man. That's hard man.
I feel you. You know, I'm with you.

Speaker 4 (01:45:20):
It's tough, man. It's tough to uh talk sports for
a living. It's really got to give the the old vocals,
vocal cords, pipes, yeah, pipe here? You know you know
what pipes are. I don't know what what? No, you've
said pipes, I said, I know you said pipes, I
said vocal cords.

Speaker 5 (01:45:38):
You said something about I love that you've got good pipes.
I said, do you know about pipe?

Speaker 10 (01:45:43):
Yeah? You do?

Speaker 5 (01:45:44):
You know you got to you know, a good voice
when you hear one, right? Pipes?

Speaker 10 (01:45:47):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (01:45:48):
Did I put the plural in? You did?

Speaker 4 (01:45:50):
You did it first and then you took the ploral
lot I left the s off.

Speaker 5 (01:45:53):
But who's count Well, it's like, you know, you like
to smoke cup poles and every now and then, you know,
rip a pole, love a cigar, Yeah, love a cigar,
love a cigar. Yeah. Pipe seems so much more devastating,
you know about a pipe, right, because you can go
two ways with that, like what a crack pipe?

Speaker 7 (01:46:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:46:14):
It's me man, Let me in, Dave, Dave, Dave, who
oh man? All right, let's let's hear from Brian Cashman.
He was on with Chris mad Dog Russ. They're getting
ready to play in the freaking World Series and Brian
Cashman brings up the astros.

Speaker 5 (01:46:30):
This is what he said.

Speaker 22 (01:46:32):
Give me your thoughts here fun of getting back and
winning a pennant after a fifteen year I don't want
to say out that's not fair. But you want to
say what I'm saying with the gap? How about what
being a pennant? How does that mean to you? Let
me hear it means a lot.

Speaker 5 (01:46:42):
And I hate the fifteen year thing because it doesn't.

Speaker 19 (01:46:46):
It completely forgets and discounts that some other organization see
to us when we were all the way in the end.
You know, if you knew what was going on, I
don't think they would be even dancing at that during
that time thing. I think we would have been advancing.
So I hate that senior thing because I don't think
it accurately reflects history.

Speaker 4 (01:47:05):
That's broadcash Man. Can't let it go, man, what do
you understand? Yeah, it is a bitch move and it's
a total bitch.

Speaker 5 (01:47:14):
I I so they own his head.

Speaker 4 (01:47:17):
They do rent free man. But my my thing about
this whole whole cheating thing.

Speaker 5 (01:47:22):
He's actually paying rent. The Astros got caught. They were cheating.

Speaker 4 (01:47:26):
They were getting signs legally via video technology.

Speaker 5 (01:47:30):
They cheated. That's fair.

Speaker 4 (01:47:31):
But there was also a memo sent out that same
year to other teams that were doing the same thing.
In one of the teams, the New York Yankees and
the Dodgers, the Red Sox got caught the Apple watch
the sign stealing. There are multiple teams that all got
warned to stop doing what they're doing.

Speaker 5 (01:47:50):
The Astros did not do that. They kept on doing it.
This dude is still talking seven years. They're about to
play in a World Series. Cheated us A what a
what a bitch? What a bitch? Straight up? Chris mad
Dog asked him about you know my people drown my people,

(01:48:10):
and ESCO would call him, Yeah, they roll through, they
would roll through. Dude, let it go, man, have owned
your ass. Now I want to go for the Dodgers
because Brian Cashman's a bit thank you, thank you, let
it go. There's some other team we got cheated. Well,
you know what.

Speaker 4 (01:48:31):
Better at it than you were, exactly, but you were
doing it too, and you and you know he can't
he can't sit there and say what he just said
and not in his own mind know that they were
doing the same thing the least.

Speaker 5 (01:48:45):
But let that guy up. Look what a joke, Yeah, man,
a frigging joke. Let it go, man. But you know
what after you take this ass kick, and what's the
excuse you think the Dodgers cheated you too? Because Otani
was betting, you know, but he was. You know what
I'm saying, stop it. I can't wait to see Tony
goes out am on their ass.

Speaker 6 (01:49:02):
Now.

Speaker 5 (01:49:02):
I want the Dodgers to win. Well, I always have
it that it's hard. I like I do with Yankee fans.
Don't bother me, the team, the players on it, don't
bother me. Just the whole aur about it, and the
arroganinst of Brian Cashman to say that now, save it, dude,
You're you're just a right the last handfull of years,
since two thousand and seven, you've just been another Team's
just been another team, Ben just been another team. So

(01:49:25):
and kudos to them. They had a great year and
they've got some great players, But don't ruin it like that.
Right ago, you'd ask your players, did did you in
your organization to move on? It might be time you
did too. I just it's crazy, it's pathetic.

Speaker 4 (01:49:37):
Seven years later, you're literally about to play in a
World Series and that's what you're gonna say.

Speaker 5 (01:49:42):
Oh, I don't think it.

Speaker 4 (01:49:43):
Uh, you know it doesn't talk about the the you
know the history because there was another team. You know
it cheated us out of a Okaya.

Speaker 5 (01:49:51):
Just take your ball and go home. Seriously, man, stop it,
put a muzzle on it and just save it. None
of us want to hear you overload your mouth with
your as in diarrhea. Both enough. It drives me nuts.

Speaker 4 (01:50:04):
My word, it's not my problem if I'm not mistaken.
They hit, They hit terrible at home that year. It's
something you're leaning on everything too. It's the all I confess.
The only reason we didn't win, it's the astros Faut
because they cheated. Yeah, sure it is. What a bitch man?
Oh my gosh, seven one, three, two, five, seven ninety

(01:50:25):
is the numbers to join. Got a couple guys, I
want to get on this discussion.

Speaker 6 (01:50:28):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (01:50:28):
We will get to them after the break here. I'm
sorry I was you. If you were, you already talked Trajan,
didn't you You alta talked about your wealth.

Speaker 5 (01:50:37):
No, yeah, right, I knew I was onto something. Yeah, yeah,
you know what you're you're dialed in, dude, Yeah, I
like how you're dialing.

Speaker 6 (01:50:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:50:46):
Man, just want to want to just talk about my
wealth and my retirement.

Speaker 5 (01:50:49):
And take it right up there on a nice tea
for me. There you go, Trajan wealth. You want a
nice tea for you all the relaxation times you want
when you hire a great wealth manager and a financial
fiduciary that has your best interest in mind. And that's
what a fiduciary's obligation is tell you every day. I
know it's Halloween month. We're almost through Halloween. I wish

(01:51:11):
Halloween was better, like an old school but I'll tell
you who is better. You do not have to have
a scary costume or have a scary approach to retirement.
Doesn't need to put fear into your mind. If you're
prepared like Halloween and the scary mass, which is awesome,
should do it. But when it comes to retirement, don't
toy with that. You want a nice, clean path, but
you also want to be prepared. If the path isn't

(01:51:33):
as clean and gets unpaved for you, how do you
get back risk tolerance, your four oh one k rollover,
if you switch jobs before your retirement, what are you
going to do with that? The insurance and generational wealth
and do you have enough money to retire? Can you
stay retired? All these things, and there's a million more questions,
But would it be nice to talk to somebody who
has answers to those and can look at your portfolio
and ask you what do you want as you get

(01:51:55):
into retirement and while you're in retirement, what if you
want to come out of retirement? What if you want
to stay in front. You're living longer people are, so
you got to prepare for it. And it's nice to
have somebody who's expertise, preparation, transparency and the want to
is there for you in the woodlands and sugar Land.
It's t r A J A N. Halloween may be scary,
don't let your retirement be scary. It's Trajanwealth dot Com.

the great Ron frank The greatest part. I mean, when

(01:55:02):
Ron Franklin was the lead guy in college football I did.
I did some games with him and Mike Godfried. And
Ron was a grinder, but his voice is just like
off the charts, right, great pipes for sports for just
having a mic in front of his face, right. And
Ron had the reputation well, aside from being damn good
at his job, Ron had the reputation of like this

(01:55:25):
was throwing it down to a sideline reporter or throw
it back to studios. He'd do it, but it's like,
what do you get it back validated? Like, hey man,
sideline reporter throw I always made a point when a
sideline reporter said something to validate what the sideline reporter
said and then move on and make a comment instead
of just saying, okay, we'll move on. And I mean
this affectionately towards Ron, because I love Ron, but he
was a grinder, right, and he was so good at

(01:55:45):
his job, and he he would like, they'll take it.

traded from the Titans to the Chiefs Lebron James Browny
James making history last night, first father's son due to
play in the same game in the NBA on the

(02:00:13):
same team. Oh Man, I asked the question in regards
to the Dallas Cowboys. There were some let's see, former
players that discussed their time in Dallas. Kaylan Keller, how

(02:00:42):
you pronounce that?

Speaker 5 (02:00:43):
I don't know who? I don't know. She's a senior
NFL writer for ESPN. Oh okay. I thought I thought
you were gonna say it was a player.

Speaker 4 (02:00:49):
I said, I don't know who that is, Kaylen Caller,
excuse me. She interviewed several former players that are still
in the league, and I'll just kind of go through
some of these quotes real quick. This is from former
defensive end. He was with the Cowboys for six years
and he's now with the Washington Commanders. Dorance Armstrong. He said, quote,

(02:01:12):
I'm smiling when I walk in the building here. I
just know like I just have work. End quote. Tony Pollard,
current running back for the Tennessee Titan, said quote, this
is more about football, just x's and o's. I'm in
a better place mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, just all around.

Speaker 5 (02:01:28):
End quote. Quote.

Speaker 4 (02:01:30):
Over here in Kansas City, the point is football and
winning championships, says cornerback Kelvin Joseph. He was with the
Cowboys for two seasons before heading over to the Chiefs.
He said, there in Dallas, it was a lot of
football and like other stuff.

Speaker 5 (02:01:42):
End quote.

Speaker 4 (02:01:43):
Dante Fowler, Junior, he now plays for the Commanders. He
spent two years in Dallas. He said, quote, you got
real facilities here. You might not see tourists coming around,
but it keeps the main thing the main thing.

Speaker 5 (02:01:54):
End quote. Fowler along, which is focusing on football, correct? Yeah,
not the showcase.

Speaker 4 (02:02:00):
Also, when asked what is different about the Dallas Dallas
team culture, Fowler, along with Curse, or two of three
Cowboy players from the twenty to twenty three roster who
independently cited the tours as a defining feature. Quote, you're
on your way to eat lunch and you're running into tours,
You're on your way to meetings, you're running into tours
or here for football, it's our job to come in

(02:02:21):
and be able to focus when we're in the weight
room or our coach is teaching us something in the
meeting room where you have thirty to thirty five people
walking by looking through the glass while you're in meetings.

Speaker 5 (02:02:30):
End quote.

Speaker 4 (02:02:31):
That was that was let to make sure I got
that was Adorn's no, excuse me, that was.

Speaker 5 (02:02:38):
Yeah, excuse me? Yeah that. Yes, they have a major
culture problem has been going on a long time because
Jerry likes the Hollywood. He likes the show.

Speaker 4 (02:02:47):
They have meetings in glass.

Speaker 5 (02:02:50):
That's where we do the All Star Game, first Dall
America Game two years and first Jerry's at their practice facility. Yeah,
you're lifting and there's people walking in. That's what. Don't
straight out there. There's a bar right across the street
and restaurants all your You're in one of the great
now as a fan, go there in the facility. You
freaking love it, You freaking love it. They got also
a gym. It's the cowboy gym that's into the cowboy

(02:03:11):
that's in there there so you can walk by. It's
it's as if you're like your own, your own you're
going to Lifetime Fitness. Yeah, which is good. Fine, it's
like like you're in a zoo. You're working out and
you're watching you like you're like you're a caged animal. Yes, crazy,
and those guys see practice. I've always felt when teams

(02:03:32):
I've been on, we've it's the building. Listen, you got
to go through security to get to the building. You
got to drive through their security, you know, guard waiting
when you drive into the parking lot. You the practice
and the only thing on that piece of property. It's
not a restaurant. You have your own in a house
like cafe where they make breakfast and dinner, lunch and

(02:03:54):
dinner for you. But everything's about it's just your group.
You're in your own safe haven. It's protected. It's practice
on media comes in at their time, but the person
walking down the street doesn't get to carry a backpack
during their lunch and take a tour while you're working
out and watch you in a meeting room might trying
to watch tape. So culture problems. It's here's the problem.

(02:04:17):
They've got too many distractions and they're not good enough
to overcome them. And that's a problem. And Jerry loved
the pomp and circumstance. That's why he's a great marketer.
The problem is marketing and winning football games. Don't go
handing in you go to can't say the Chief Pratice field,
So there's not a Mexican restaurant sitting right next to you.

Speaker 4 (02:04:36):
Who who are the quarterbacks that you were in a
quarterback room with? It was Warren Moon, yourself, it.

Speaker 5 (02:04:42):
Was me rich Gannon, Wade Wilson one year. Then it's
me rich Gannon, Wade Wilson again. Then it's me rich
gets me, I mean me Wade, Brad Johnson, okay, Brad Johnson,
and who else? And then Warren Moon me Brad Johnson,
that's the one I'm thinking of. But before that, it
was me, Brad Johnson and Jim McMahon. Yeah, guys came
with so I imagine with all of them.

Speaker 4 (02:05:03):
Now imagine right, I'm just going to use the Brad Johnson,
Warn Moon and yourself. Okay, three quarterbacks in a meeting
room discussing everything you need to discuss and you're surrounded
by glass windows and people are just walking by staring
at you.

Speaker 5 (02:05:17):
There's enough distractions when you leave the facility that that's
that is supposed to be, and quite frank, it's supposed
to be your safe avor. When you go there, you're
getting away from from everything. That's as your escape. It
would be the equivalent of me being able to there's
a corporate meeting at some big company and you're and
and they've got it to where you can look at
their glass and they're talking writing notes down. You go

(02:05:38):
in there and you can stare at them doing their job.
They wouldn't allow it. Jerry loves it. It's great for fans,
it's it's it's great when you're off work, but when
you're there to focus from six in the morning or
five thirty whenever it is you get in when when
I'd got into work until five thirty or six when
it's over, that's your job. You shouldn't have people. Fans
weren't if there was no fans during training camp, there

(02:06:01):
is and everybody's watching I'm talking about that's your job
and it's all focused, all football, all teammates building relationships
with those guys coaches. That building was a standalone. That
building isn't around five. It's not a place where you
get to go. Hey man, you want to go to launch? Yeh,
there's an Italian restaurant next door to our facility. No,
you normally you have to get in a car and
drive to those places. Here. The entertainment value is you

(02:06:23):
got everything there everything. So I could tell you this
culture problem, yes, leadership problem, yes, wrong page. A bunch
of different guys going different directions. Where's Walda? Absolutely absolutely
an owner who yesterday on the show questioned Mike McCarthy's

(02:06:44):
he said, we're not putting in the right place and concepts.
That's a direct slap in the head coach's face. Yes, yeah,
do they have a culture problem yet? And they're here's
another reason why they're not going to win another one
this year and they're not gonna win one next year
until they get that fixed. Load up player, go all
in and make football the priority, not the fans. The

(02:07:05):
ticket sales and the fan people are gonna show up
at Cowboy games anyway. Yeah. The fan experience is for
those days when it's called a fan experience day, not
every day at work. I don't bug you at your job,
don't come bug me at mine if I'm leave it alone.
But the heelows them. So what are you gonna do?
If you're a fan, you want to see a guy
pumping iron in the thing and going watching meeting room.
It's all listen. Some teams can now try that with Belichick.

(02:07:28):
Tell Saban your prosty matter of fact, I Saban was
hired by the Cowboys. I'm not so sure Nick Saban
would't say. Then you're gonna have to put shutters on
all these windows whatever it is. You're not you're not
you're not you're not getting you're not looking army though,
because I got a lot of secrets in here, the
game plans, you know, and nobody. There's no stone unturned
for those guys. You know, it was a lot of
them in Dallas.

Speaker 4 (02:07:48):
You mentioned, uh, Jerry Jones basically questioning Mike McCarthy and
the play callers and staff, right the instlation coaches and
everything you show you Jerry Jones chose to keep Mike McCarry.
You had every opportunity in the world to get rid
of Mike McCarthy, but you chose not to. So that

(02:08:08):
goes back to you, uh, Jerry Jones. Everything goes back
to Jerry Jones. He had the opportunity to get rid
of Mike McCarthy. Everybody in the media, experts, analysis, everybody said,
why are you going to keep Mike McCarthy. It's clearly
not working. I'm going to tell you what goes back
to Jerry Jones.

Speaker 5 (02:08:28):
I'm going to tell you what. I'm gonna question this way, Carlin,
when you chose to keep him. Here's why Jerry doesn't
want it. Jerry wants to win a championship, the cutting
corners way. That's not to say Mike McCarthy wasn't a
good coach in Green Bay. They haven't been okay here,
they've been a playoffs and they've done some good things.
Coaching's tough. I get that. But here's why Jerry is
never going to hire the guy that you'd want, because

(02:08:48):
it's not his way, not a yes man. Yeah, okay,
there you go. He will hire he wants guys. Think,
go through the history. Why is Jimmy Johnson? Why why
would you get rid of Jimmy john because yes man,
and he won you championship. Right now, Barry Switzer is
and hear no but Beer's that he went in there,

(02:09:09):
Barry's but that was Jimmy Johnson the very right and
but Barry did a nice y'all make sure they got
another one. They great players. Aside from that, you want
to go down the list. Jason Garrett biggest yes man
of them, when the when, the when, the offensive coordinators
making more than the head coach, when Wade Phillips was
there right around the same. Jerry wants people Jerry because
you know what, if you get Bill Belichick, guess who
doesn't have the most power in the building. And who's

(02:09:30):
not the face of the franchise anymore. Jerry doesn't want
Dak to be the face of the franchise. Yeah, he
wants to be the face of the franchise. Brilliant marketer
and he knows how to make money, the life of
the party, just to ask him. But I can tell
you this, you want to win championships, you have no
You go get a guy who's going to mean business
as matter of fact, not not just kiss not kiss

(02:09:50):
your ass, but actually respectfully battle you. And and you
know what, why didn't Parcels say? Now they didn't win,
but Parcels couldn't handle it.

Speaker 6 (02:09:57):
Long.

Speaker 5 (02:09:58):
The guys that have alpha P personalities. I'm talking about
mega alpha person did or that have power without opening
their mouth? Belichick or saving walk in the building. Guess what,
I was changed immediately, and the players are afraid to
death the screw.

Speaker 4 (02:10:11):
That's why Robert Kraft finally had to get rid of
Bill Belichick. The show before us the two Pros and
couple Joe, we're talking about it. Robert Kraft was on
the Breakfast Club and he said, I gave Bill Bill
Belichick had too much power.

Speaker 5 (02:10:24):
Yeah, essentially why and he couldn't handle it anymore. It
got to the point after twenty plus years and eventually
the speech gets hold, even for Belichick. But that's why
I'm going to tell you. I'm sold on the fact
if Bill Belichick begged for the job, said I'll do
it for a million dollars, Yeah, I don't think he'd
do it for him. I do not think he'd hire him.
Why because then you instantly become the other guy in
the building. Yep, Belichick has more power than you just

(02:10:46):
by walking in. Not that he demanded, just by walking in,
it's given to him. So Jerry wants and the next
coach he hires, is going to be a guy. It's
going to be a hot He'll be a hot commodity
or a retread. Doesn't mean retread's not good somebody else.
But he'll hire somebody who still try to climb the
ladder perfectly like a Jonathan Gannon when he went to Arizona,
a Nick Seria. Guys like that Jason Garretts who've not

(02:11:09):
been dominant head coaches, maybe dabbled in a head coach
or if they did that had success somewhere else. Barry, Yes,
that's exactly right. They did. We got some pazazz here.
But guess what great offensive mine. Cliff knows when he
walks into the building. I'm still I'm still your daddy.
That's what he wants. I'm telling you. I guarantee it.
I guarantee it. It's gonna he's gonna. You're not gonna

(02:11:29):
get the guy you want. He may hire Lincoln Riley
for offense and all that Lincoln right left Jesse, but
he's not gonna hire the guy that he should hire
or the guys that he should hire, because why Jerry.
Jerry can't have anybody in the building more powerful than him.
That's why you'll never They'll never sell. Jerry will be
the GM till he dies, no question, Jones will take over. Yes,

(02:11:50):
and Stephen may say they see Jerry's got his championship.
Steven isn't as an owner, won't he won't have so
he may have to hire. Jerry's got his So really
he feels like he's on it's a house money. Yeah,
I know he wants to win more. But what do
you think is more important everybody loving Jerry Jones or
if if the priority was football first, all the day,
every day, the way it's supposed to be. I'm talking

(02:12:11):
about sie Im talking about when you wake up to
go to working at your job. They wouldn't they wouldn't
have such a circus over there. Yeah, that's exactly what
it is. A circus exactly right, Ringling Brothers and barn
and the Baser. Yep, they have a problem. Yeah, since
eight good tea, it's perfect tease.

Speaker 4 (02:12:31):
Seven one three, two two five seven ninety John James, Steve,
don't go anywhere to you this discussion and go to
your calls next to sportslock seven ninety.

Speaker 1 (02:12:39):
Shotgun with someone who's thrown from the shotgun. Football is
what Hammet to hammet. Sean Salisbury, Brian Lalima, you want
to see what a real football looks like.

Speaker 3 (02:12:51):
This is the Sean Salisbury Show on Sports Talk seven ninety.

Speaker 5 (02:12:59):
Father and said the same time, on a basketball court
on the floor at the same time. Pretty cool. I
think we'd all want that with our kid at some
point in time. Let's get out to the calls. Texans
have the cults this week and uh, Anthony Richardson a
little banged up. We're gonna play and they might be better
served with Joe Flacco's arm. But then again, the guys
a dynamic talent, so we'll see in that. Texans I

(02:13:22):
have to get back to doing the right thing and
protecting their pastor. Let's get out to Steve and Katie. Steve,
what's on your mind?

Speaker 10 (02:13:27):
Man?

Speaker 23 (02:13:28):
Hey Sean, long time, Hey, Brian. I grew up a
Cowboys fan until I moved to New Orleans and I
was a New Orleans fan, and I'm here and I'm
a Texans fan, especially now. But Jerry Jones, Okay, we'll
talking about Jerry Jones. Okay, we know they won three
three Super Bowls, Emmett Smith and Troy and Michael.

Speaker 6 (02:13:47):
But his Boors. Mistake is getting rid of Jimmy Johnson.

Speaker 23 (02:13:51):
We know that, But I'm talking about the Derrick Henry
thing where everybody's complaining about that move. It wouldn't have
worked with Dak, it works with And that's why I
don't I.

Speaker 6 (02:14:02):
Disagree with, Oh, you got to get Derrick Henry.

Speaker 23 (02:14:04):
It ain't gonna work with Dak Prescott and Derrick Henry.
In my opinion, I think you needed a guy like
Lamar Or. I don't know if if our guy would
if we'd.

Speaker 5 (02:14:19):
Work with JA, would work with Josh Allen, it would
wo work with C. J. Stroud like mixing is working
with Stroud, It would work with Joe Burrow.

Speaker 23 (02:14:28):
Yeah, I'm in your expertise because you're a quarterback in
the NFL. So but do you agree with me?

Speaker 6 (02:14:34):
Then?

Speaker 5 (02:14:34):
Yeah, Well Steve for me, here's what I think. I
think they, well, the Cowboys would be better with Derrick Henry.
I don't understand why people devalued him. He was in
Tennessee with bad quarterback play, no weapons, took a beating
and still kept going in Baltimore. What an opportunity you
get in your You're one hundred percent correct with Lamar
makes him even better because Lamar is not only a
passing threat, but his ability to run as well. So

(02:14:57):
you've got to defend not only the full length of
the field, you got a full to deal with a
width of the field running and passing, excuse me. So
it's the perfect storm for Derrick Henry at this point
in his career, and he right now, in my opinion,
is the most valuable player in the league, and not Lamar.
It's it's Derrick Henry. With Dallas or someone like that,
they would be better. There's no doubt in Dak because
Dak can throw. Play action would be better. But their

(02:15:19):
offensive line is not as good as the as the
Baltimore Ravens, and that's a help. You know, the Ronnie Stanleys,
they're really good, and the Cowboys line is not as
adept as they are, and they don't have him any
weapons on the perimeter other than Ceedee Lamb. I don't
even know where the threat comes from. And Dak Prescott's
not as mobile or quite frankly, as good a player
as Lamar. Jackson is a good player. So yeah, it's

(02:15:41):
far better in Baltimore, but it would have been a
major upgrade for the Cowboys. I guarantee you that it
may not to the tune of the MVP in the league,
but Derek Henry would have made him better.

Speaker 23 (02:15:50):
Yeah, I agree with that, and I just don't think
the Cowboys have a shot to win a Super Bowl.

Speaker 5 (02:15:57):
Not anytime soon. And yeah, and Steve, thank you for
the call, brother. I appreciate that. Great point. I think
the Cowboys are long ways waits. If people want to
talk about Dak or Jerry, there's a lot wrong there.
This isn't this isn't. This isn't a a three person
quick fix. No, and it starts in leadership there for
a while, I'm not sure they actually know they know
who the boss is. I'm not sure who they know
who the leader is. And that's a problem for me.

(02:16:19):
Let's get to James. James, what's up man, how you.

Speaker 10 (02:16:21):
Doing Hey, I'm doing good.

Speaker 7 (02:16:24):
I'm going to tell you what's wrong with the Texans
because nobody's talking about Okay, and it goes back to
that third down play. But all you got to do
is watch and listen to CJ. You saw his reaction
after the play and through his helmet, and if you
listen to his press conference after the game, on the question.
When he was asked about mixing, he replied, I had

(02:16:47):
no option but to hand off the ball. So that
tells me that what the Texans have done this year
different than last year. They've taken the audible and the
run for CJ out of the offense. They've become too predictable. Okay,
so all they have to do is key in on
the other players and they shut us down. And CJ

(02:17:07):
should be mad because without CJ either giving an audible
or running out of that pocket and throwing on the
run is why he was so exciting last year. Took
us as far as they did last year, and I
think everybody expected the Texans to run that kind of offense.
But they're doing what everybody in the NFL does. They

(02:17:30):
want to take a running quarterback and they want to
make him a pocket quarterback. But we don't have all
the key players in making that. Yet we're getting there.

Speaker 5 (02:17:37):
Let me ask you this, James. You're saying you think
that Stroud's a running quarterback.

Speaker 10 (02:17:44):
I think you have to leave that in the offense.

Speaker 7 (02:17:46):
Give him the option to run out of there, not
only to protect himself, but let him find the open
man on the run.

Speaker 10 (02:17:52):
That's what he did all of last year.

Speaker 5 (02:17:54):
Oh yeah, I don't think anybody's telling him he can't
throw the ball in the run. I know what you're saying, though,
to me, you're a one. I don't let me finish.
Hang on a second, Hang on a second, nobody is.
I'm just telling you now, there's not a soul in
that building telling CJ. Stroud not to run if if
if a runs needed. They're not just so regardless of

(02:18:15):
what you may have thought you read it, maybe on
that particular play, they're not going and putting a game
plan in. And I can promise you this if if
I'm wrong, I'll walk away and I'll never talk sports again.
I get what you You are right about the first
part that if you take an audible away from a quarterback,
you are limiting what you're trying to do. If you
make it a call and run and he says you're
not allowed to check out of it or not allowed

(02:18:37):
to get to a better play to get us out
of a bad play, then they're limiting their offense. And
to me, that is uh, that's too new school of football.
And you're taking the game out of the quarterback's hands,
which is a major mistake if that is the case,
and he doesn't get to check off throughout a game. Now,
there's certain plays its call it and run it where
you don't audible. But if they are saying you can't

(02:18:59):
audible to another play, then we're gonna have more problems
than you can imagine here that this did, they will
not have the success they want and CJ won't be
able to maximize this phenomenal ability. So you are right
there if that is the case. But I can tell
you what's not the case. They're not going into a
game week saying this week against the Colts, CJ, you
can't run. They're not telling him that. You do know

(02:19:21):
this correct.

Speaker 10 (02:19:23):
I don't believe it. First.

Speaker 5 (02:19:26):
He's not a runner. He is a thrower. He is
a PA. He's the epitome of a pocket passer who
can extend the play with his legs. There are not
I'm telling you the coaches Now. Now they may say,
let's be smart and going through our reads and when
you get out of the pocket, don't take hits. All
those things that you tell every quarterback when they get
out of the pocket, don't take on a middle linebacker

(02:19:46):
on third and seven in the middle of the second
quarter and we got a two touchdown lead. You're no
good to be hurt there. And they are not telling him.
Matter of fact, I can guarant they are not telling
him you can't run. You know, they're not telling him
this erect.

Speaker 7 (02:20:01):
Well, why did he say in the press conference? I
had no option but to hand that ball off. They
took that away.

Speaker 5 (02:20:06):
From Wait a minute, now, wait a minute. You're saying
you had no option to take the hand the ball off.
You're talking about the end of the last drive they ran,
which which way? What are you talking about, whole player?

Speaker 10 (02:20:15):
Are we talking about on the very last drive on
the on.

Speaker 5 (02:20:18):
The those two plays that they got stuffed, yes, when
they went okay, What he's saying is that there wasn't
an option, a read option in it that there. It
was just straight hand off because they were trying to
kill the clock. And then on third and fifteen they
threw it, which was stupid because it was a ten
yard route outside the numbers and he stepped out of bounds.
So you're talking about him running it. I don't even

(02:20:39):
think they had an option of wanting him to run it.
That you wanted to put the ball in Mixon's hands
and secure the football and secure the lead. That part
I do get. They're not going into a game plan
saying you can't run at all. They're not doing that.
They may have the last two plays, the last the
first two run plays when he got lost to and
lost three and said, hey, listen, let's secure the football,

(02:20:59):
don't pull it in if it's an RPO handed to Joe. Okay,
that's okay. We hear that all the time in football
with co hey man. Alls we got to do is
run this clock out or we're gonna set it up
a third down play these two plays, Let's get Joe
the ball in the first two. Joe wasn't on the
field on third down play. But they are not telling c. J.
Stroud throughout the game don't run. They're not telling him that.

Speaker 10 (02:21:20):
Well, I'm not gonna believe that, Jil. I see him run.

Speaker 5 (02:21:25):
A second. You're telling me James that you think he's
going to drop back to pass and if if he's
got a chance to run, he's not gonna run. Yes,
all right, I'll make you put it this way. If
unless it's a clean pocket for thirty throws, maybe he
won't run this week because the ball comes out on time.

(02:21:46):
I'll make you a bet of any kind of bet
you want. You can come host this show in my
seat for four hours. If they've told if CJ. Stroud's
told you're not to run, and when you break out
of the pocket you don't run, I'll take that bet
anytime you want to make it. You're right about if
there are, if they're taking the audible away from him
throughout a game mistake and on the last series, if

(02:22:09):
they said we're gonna get Joe, we're gonna hand it,
let's not pull it because they don't want to risk
a fumble or turnover. I get that. But if you're
saying they're going into a game plan telling him you're
not to run the football, that that that is wherever
you get that's not correct. Maybe the last two plays
they sit hand it to Joe. They're not telling him
not to run. He will run the football again this year,
multiple times. You do know this correct?

Speaker 10 (02:22:31):
I haven't seen it. Until I see it, I'm not
going to believe it.

Speaker 5 (02:22:35):
Huh Okay, Well that's why he threw.

Speaker 10 (02:22:38):
That's why he threw his not because they will let.

Speaker 5 (02:22:40):
Me ask you, Let me ask you this let me
ask you something, James, for a second, would you so
I want want you to fill me in on this
because when when I hear it, and I'm so glad
you got passion for the call. This is no disrespect.
I have nothing but respect for callers. But I do
got to call you on this. So from your vantage point,
where'd you watch a game from your living room? I
can't let you off the hook on it. Okay, So
you know, well from your living room, having all those

(02:23:02):
locker rooms you were you've been in and you were
on the sidelines listening to the conversation.

Speaker 2 (02:23:07):
C J.

Speaker 5 (02:23:07):
Stroud threw his helmet because he didn't get to run.
That's what you're telling me. Yes, okay, Well, I'm gonna
give you all the credibility possible, but that one com you.
I love you, my man. I look forward to hearing
from you again. But I got to tell you come
on in that four hours. I'll host the show, but
I'll sit down and write down I'll walk you through

(02:23:29):
x's and OSA football just to give you a little
a little education on it. Just because you couldn't be
more wrong on that. You could not be more And
he may have slam his helmet because he's pissed. But
how do you Okay, then fill me in. How do
you find out about that? You got insight over there?
Did you call down? I'm just curious. Fill me feel
me in. How you know that c J. Stroud the
only reason he threw his helmet was because he didn't

(02:23:51):
get to run the football? Tell me who who told you?

Speaker 19 (02:23:54):
That?

Speaker 10 (02:23:57):
No, that's my observation.

Speaker 5 (02:23:58):
Okay, that's your object. Now that's fair. You said you
said it was nothing else. I guarantee it was because
he threw his helmet because he didn't get to run. Now,
when you say that's your observation, I respect that you
can have that observation. It's wrong, but you can have
that observation. That's okay, respect it. But my man, you
gotta you gotta gotta know. So you're telling me c J.
Stroud has been told not to run the football at

(02:24:20):
any point in time. That's what you're that's your intel
is telling me. Is that what you're saying to stay
in the pocket. Okay, all right, I appreciate you. You're
gonna please call us again. We love you listening, James.
We gotta go to break or I would I would
keep you here for more. I can't help but smile.
But I love your passion, my man, But your passion
is so misdirected it's unbelievable. What was that? Remember how

(02:24:46):
I opened I gotta go to break? Yeah, man, we
gotta go break. I love, I love jam you, I
love our callers.

Speaker 10 (02:24:53):
You know.

Speaker 5 (02:24:54):
Yeah, him all the respect I can, But I lose
credibility if I agree with that, Well, all loose credibility.

Speaker 4 (02:25:01):
So what about the times when he scrambles to his right,
throws across his.

Speaker 5 (02:25:04):
Body, when he scrambles to his right and actually right.
I saw him Sunday scramble and make a first down
to his right and step out of the house.

Speaker 4 (02:25:10):
There was also one where he scrambled to his left
and took off running. He gets the first down, and
it took a pretty good lick.

Speaker 5 (02:25:14):
By the way. I can't. I don't. I can't. I can't.
I can't. Let's go break, man, I can't. Let's go
to break. I can't, The.

Speaker 1 (02:25:28):
Shawn Salisbury Show continued.

Speaker 4 (02:25:33):
You know, we we as a show, give our callers
a lot of time a day. Let him get their
opinions in and out, answer with us latitude and respect,
a lot of respect, probably more than we should at times.
I'm guilty of that as well.

Speaker 5 (02:25:51):
CJ.

Speaker 4 (02:25:52):
Stroud is not Lamar Jackson. He's not Anthony Richardson. He's
not Kyler Murray. He's not Josh Allen. He's not Josh Allen.
He is not a running quarterback. He's a by time,
not a dual threat quarterback, great pocket passer who knows
how to extend place. That's a that's as far as
that goes. Yeah, he's not gonna be a run first quarterback.

Speaker 5 (02:26:12):
They're not running it. They're not putting in r pos
for him. They may mix one into a game plan
where he pulls it because you see the end crash
on to pull it and go get out about fine.
Maybe once I'm actually in a blue moon, I'm I
feel well, well, kinder gentler seawan who's.

Speaker 4 (02:26:31):
And again we appreciate the opinion. But that might might
Uh he said, you know, I'm a call like it is.
That might be one of the dumbest calls that I've heard.

Speaker 5 (02:26:38):
No, there's not a mite to it. It's a fact.
Doesn't mean he's a dumb guy. No, I don't take
a nice guy. It was just in take that one.
That one was straight out of Mars and we ain't
there yet. No, and it just and like I said, loves
passion and when he said that was my observation about
the helmets, so great, that's your observation. Your observation wrong
on that one, but I respect it. I just can't.

(02:27:01):
You're not running with CJ.

Speaker 4 (02:27:02):
Stroud in the red zone or close to the red
zone when you're trying to kick a field goal.

Speaker 5 (02:27:08):
You're also not calling planned runs down there for you
are calling for Kyler Murray or Josh Allen because if
they're tired of getting pound especially like Lamar, when you
get tired of getting Derek Henry hitting your the moounth
pull it and you'll walk in the end zone. Yeah,
but when you're down there and there's a time and
a place for it, plus you're trying to secure the one,
what you don't want is an exchange problem. You're lay
it on the ground. You don't get to kick a
field you know what I'm saying. There's so many things

(02:27:29):
that go in there. At no time in my life
you understand, Ever, has a quarterback coach coordinator head coach
walked up and said, don't run the ball today.

Speaker 4 (02:27:43):
Hey man, stay in the pocket the whole time, no
matter why. If the pockets collapsing, you stay there.

Speaker 5 (02:27:48):
At no time as any quarterback in the history of
football ever been told that, Now, plenty of them been said.
Protect yourself and get down. If you got to use
your feet, use them wisely, be patient in the pocket,
all those things matter of fact. If I was an
owner or a general manager and I heard my head
coach told my quarterback you can't don't run it, you

(02:28:09):
stay in there, I would immediately go down and say, hey, listen,
you need a different job, and it ain't this one. Okay,
take two weeks off and quit, all right. So I
respect the we respect. We don't even need to press that.
I think our people listen know we give our callers,
matter of fact, that time's probably too much latitude to
bury themselves. We give them too much latitude at times.

(02:28:29):
But I think we had it well because we got
great listeners and callers. And I loved his call about
the audible. He made a great point for he got
in Brian. He said, you know, if they're taking the
audible at it, not let him audible. That's a mistake.
If they if that is the case where they don't
let him check to something. Now, in that situation, CJ.
Stroud was not going to check to a quarterback run.
He was not going to check it. It's going to
be the reason they do that is secure the ball.

(02:28:51):
Joe's been great, let's go get this skit. Let's end
this game and go win this thing and finish it
and get home. He was not going to check to
their certain times when we don't run, call it and run.
I mean, we don't check. You don't audiblize at the
goal line when you're in jumbo people that they weren't in.
But if you're at the goal line, you don't audible
Why because there's not enough playure you call it and
run it. When we got to run in an inside

(02:29:11):
zone at the goal line, jumbo package, gut play. But
where they were, if it was Lamar, yeah you can
pull yank that thing, pull it and go get yourself
the edge and go score. But they weren't going to
do that. And CJ was not going to check to
a quarterback run down there in that situation in the game.

(02:29:32):
It was not going to happen. He's a pocket.

Speaker 4 (02:29:34):
Pattern breaking news Texans signing former Eagles and Buccaneers linebacker
Devin White. They announced their via their official Texans Twitter account.

Speaker 5 (02:29:50):
I want you to think about this, and I thought
about it last week when Tampa Cutt was at Tampa.
Who not Tampa Philadelphi. He was at Tampa, went to Philly, Philip, Yeah,
play a snap he went at least went to Tampa.
It was in Tampa and no sideline when they and
he and levant to the best in the least he
went there was dominant, went to Philly nothing, He didn't

(02:30:10):
even take a snap for them. I want you to
when you look at the season, look at the fall off.
This dude was one of the most dominant sideline to sidelines, scraping, running,
physical linebackers in football. And it's almost like overnight that
he forgot how to play, or that somebody doesn't think
he can play. Now, I'm going to consider the source
right now in Philadelphia that maybe there's something something out
right there where the head coach might be missing a

(02:30:34):
screw or two at times. But how did this guy go?
Your career doesn't fall off that fast, does it? From
Tampa to Philly? And they just flat out and said,
you can't play. How what is going on? I mean,
this could end up being a great pickup if he
he's not an old guy. He's in the prime of
his career. And I'm telling you when yes one of them,

(02:30:57):
this is when you go Pro Bowl, this is when
you're the biggest study. This is the prime of Devin
White's career. He came in LSU a beast. He goes
to Tampa and the Levante David at that point time
where as good as any linebacking duo in the league,
tackling to it, and all of a sudden, we wake
up and you're giving him away. What happened from Tampa

(02:31:18):
to here?

Speaker 4 (02:31:19):
So in twenty twenty three, his play dropped off to
the point where he lost the starting job with the Bucks.
The Bucks allowed him to become a free agent. The
Eagles signed him. Uh, he was passed up on the
depth chart in camp. He also had an ankle injury,
and then he was released.

Speaker 5 (02:31:37):
Think about that. You were the You were the on
that field that day when they he was a team
captain for the Buccaneers, when they beat that when they
were running their defense dominant, were all over the place,
defense dominated Kansas. They were nuts. Yes, they were the
strength of that. Other than that was a strength for them. Yeah,
and the wide receiver cording Brady's passing. But dude, then
all of a sudden, you get beat out just like that. Yeah,

(02:32:01):
like you. It's almost as if you lost interest in playing,
and then you go can't get on the field. Another
guy beat out and now and they didn't even not
let you get benched in Tampa. They just allowed you
to be a free agent. Yeah, to go from a
Pro Bowl caliber player in one of the great players
in the league. You're not. He's not thirty four, he's
twenty six. What happened?

Speaker 4 (02:32:19):
I don't know, But dude, this is one of the
strangest Yeah, the fall off fallofs I've ever seen in
my life.

Speaker 5 (02:32:24):
Really, what happened? Yes, I'm being serious. It's not like
what happened. Man, he's thirty three. Won't happened? He got old?
He's been tackling people. The dude's twenty six. This is
about the time you learn how to play. How did
he well? I mean, I'm being serious. What has gone
on that went from him being an intimidating, dominant player
two months later the guy can't play. I don't know

(02:32:47):
now hopefully he can revitalize it here, but I'm baffled.

Speaker 4 (02:32:52):
If there's any any locker room, any culture that he
needs to come to, it would be.

Speaker 5 (02:32:56):
The time, There's no doubt. But I haven't even heard
that about him. I know, I don't know what I mean.
It's like, I don't know, dude twenty six when fall off,
it's like, man, dude, he's been doing it ten years.
He's thirty four. I get it. He's a spot and
we're gonna use him as a special especially you know,
he's a he's a We'll put him because he's the
guy who rushes the pass or if you're an edge
rushing at thirty four, we're gonna specialize you. This dude's

(02:33:17):
twenty six. Yeah, and three years ago he was one
of the best linebackers and two years ago one of
the best linebackers in football. Yeah, it's the weirdest. Remember
when he came how vicious he was. He came out
of school.

Speaker 4 (02:33:27):
I remember him and Lavonte David on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers,
and I swear they made every tackle, like every tackle
you remember him on every place?

Speaker 5 (02:33:35):
Remember, Yeah you did? You could? He made every freaking
play every play and then he made him all Tampa
and all of a sudden, you wake up one day.
It's almost like, you know, he lost his dude. He played.

Speaker 4 (02:33:44):
He played like no less than fifteen games every season.

Speaker 5 (02:33:48):
That's what I'm saying. Is that word the mojug If
he got.

Speaker 4 (02:33:51):
Rookie year thirteen, then fifteen, then seventeen, seventeen fifteen.

Speaker 5 (02:33:55):
I did five years? Did he did? He is?

Speaker 6 (02:33:57):
He is?

Speaker 5 (02:33:57):
His body so beat up after five years, just can't.
I don't know, that's so weird. I hope he regains
it here because that was a football playing Jesse and
table man.

Speaker 4 (02:34:05):
If he revitalizes it, that's some damn damn needed dip.

Speaker 5 (02:34:09):
That's some good depth. Then that's legalized theft if he
if he goes back to play like he didn't tamp
and refines finds that again, Yeah, oh well you're stealing
could normally you have to give up a draft pick
and pay a guy like that. Yeah. I just hope
he j. Stroud runs a football more well. I'd like
him to check to the audible check to.

Speaker 3 (02:35:22):
It's Hitters House, Houston, were the Shawn Salisbury Show continued,
drew you up first.

Speaker 12 (02:35:31):
Hey, appreciate you having me on and real quick man
James and your conversation with funny Asiah uh and that's
and and and real quickly about that.

Speaker 6 (02:35:40):
He came away from that game with that observation, how
crazy is that like?

Speaker 12 (02:35:45):
And that just kind of tells me right then and there,
we all watched that game, and that's what he came
away with. So sometimes you just can't argue with people.
But real quick, Sean, I wanted to ask you because
I feel like this is something that can be really
quickly and easily fixed with the Texians, the way that
they start so slow, not not with scoring or anything,
but just their play calling and getting back up into

(02:36:07):
the line and calling plays like it seems like every
single play is like hyped in the last three seconds
of the shot club. I feel like that gives time
for defense to get set. I feel like they get
time to get substitutes for the defense, and I feel
like that also helps them run these elaborate stunts that
they just can't block at all. So I wanted to
ask you because I feel like if they started faster

(02:36:29):
and played faster, like call play faster, don't let it
go into the last five seconds of the play cup
With that alleviate a lot of the offense.

Speaker 5 (02:36:38):
Appreciate and Drew we got to get Yeah, I'll tell
you real quick, bro, I love Temple, Brian. We've been
on here before in the past. Like I like different
types of Temple during the game. Huddle up, play fast,
get out of the huddle, get the place, and one thing.
Even if you're gonna huddle and play, not play Temple
type football. I don't mean the whole game like College
Tennessee does, but I think you need to change up
and he keeps the other guys off guard real quick

(02:36:59):
in off balance is for me is I want to
give my quarterback all the time possible with the line
of scrimmage. Get the play in. Get to the line
of scrimmage with twenty some seconds or eighteen seconds so
I can he can see the defense and give us
a chance to check the stuff. That's good. When you
start to rolling down, you start to panic, so it
becomes a call it and run it, play faster, Jay,
good morning, Hey.

Speaker 15 (02:37:21):
So it's an like we signed damage Goods and Sean
c J. If he sees more than four people on
the line, shouldn't he change the play?

Speaker 5 (02:37:32):
Well? No, it well it just would depend on the play.
Four people, five people on the line of scrimmage. You
should be able to block five guys all the time. Yeah,
you should be always able to block five. Every now
and then you know they put a stunt on. You
should always be able to block five because you got
five linemen. I mean five on five, I should be okay, now,
they're gonna win sometimes because one on one matchups. But yes,

(02:37:52):
and now if I'm running, they're rushing four and running
into a strong safety, I should never more than like
I can't say never at all times, but four guys
are five guys rushing rarely should put me in a
position where that's not protected.

Speaker 9 (02:38:06):
If ever, so, well, you know the coach are gonna
bring They're gonna bring it, just like the Green Bay did.

Speaker 5 (02:38:11):
Oh yeah, create confusion and still get pressure with three
or four and get an unblocked You should never have
an unblocked guy with four rushers. Ever, it's inexcusable. Great
call man, Thank you, John, last to call the show.
What's happening? Hey, what's gohad on o fellas, Hey, shun
b this be out?

Pro Bowl. Well, and we're close to that too, because
