Caught astray from me, and I apologize for that. Ross.

At one thirty, we have Ross's NFL rewind can't wait.
(02:35):
And by the way, the Dicks family having a tough weekend.
So what's the fans brother's name? Trayvon? Yeah, Trayvon and
Stefan getting a little lippy with a member of the
Dallas media. Yes, and that didn't turn out well, especially
since the Cowboys lost the game. And I think he
dropped a d's nuts on that guy. Apparently, yes he did.
(02:57):
Can we actually, no, we don't have to talk about
that plates twelve o four. We can talk about Houston stuff. Yeah, yeah,
we'll get but during the rewind, we'll definitely to talk about. Okay,
we we have you know we didn't talk about yesterday too.
Was that corner or the or the extra whatever secondary
guy for the command for the Chicago Bears that was
just out there taunting the commanders before that final play
(03:19):
in which a former Texan great, Noah Brown, great legend,
legendary Texan. If I and I and I don't mean
to get into a deep dive on that, but and
I don't know how much you guys get into the
minutia of play by a play calls. We don't, okay,
so just let me have sixty seconds. Then Jim Nance
called it perfectly. Uh huh, you understood everything that was said. Okay,
(03:43):
there was I didn't hear the Chicago radio call. I
heard the national radio call, and I heard the Washington
radio call. It was so much yelling and screaming. Obviously
you knew something good had happened. You obviously knew the
play beforehand was a hail Mary. But then there was
like thirty seconds of inaudible crap after that. Now again,
(04:05):
everybody gets excited. I got excited. I got excited last
night and the Fred VanVleet top of the key three
pointer two that sealed the Rocket victory last night. Did
buy Jalen Green, who faced a double team last night,
on that. But it was just it was crazy and
so you have to you know, and thankfully for me,
I was by myself in San Antonio, So, I mean,
I don't know if I'd had one of the wex
Or client they've been yelling or two and won a
(04:26):
yell like moment, but it was a clutch three. Yeah,
it's fine to get a little oh or something right,
but it was just it was I was listening to
the highlights and coming back from Houston, yet on Sunday
back to San Antonio, I was like, if you you
had no way to decipher what was excited, except obviously
somebody caught the football in the end zone. You didn't
figure out who it was, you know what the final
score was, you know how the play took place. It
(04:48):
was actually a perfect hail Mary the one tip, yes,
Noah Brown in the back of the end zone by
himself caught game over. It was it was almost like
I had rehearsed it after the guy taunting. It was great. Yeah,
all right, so we'll get that during the rewind. Coming
up today? Uh seven one three two one two five
seven ninety seven one three two one two five seven
nine zero. If you want to follow us on Twitter,
(05:09):
it's at Sports Empty, at Sports RV, and at Connor Damagon.
We got Connor d back with us today. Yeah, he
decided to show up today. He's so proud of it.
He needed the day off after his Missouri Tigers got
their ass who by Alabama on Saturday. Did y'all score
in that game? Hey? Come on, I think they're on
like their third string quarterback. We were, Yeah, and we
did not score. Man, Okay, but thanks for bringing it.
But a good time was had by all right. No, no, okay,
(05:33):
nobody had a good time. If you could stare Daggers
through a digital camera, he's not that's what he's doing.
He's not pleased, which is fine. That's your Cougars though. Yay,
we got a big one against Utah.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Baby.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yeah, what's the record now? I believe it's six and
oh range actual record. I don't know if you know
how records work. Wins are in the first you don't.
In my mind, I watched I know you don't know
how it works. That's right. Wins going the first column,
loss is going the second call. Well, in my emotionally
they're they're an undefeated team in my book. Okay, And
we'll talk to Willie Fritz tomorrow on the show and
(06:05):
we'll get a little thought about the game coming up
this weekend is three and five. Yeah, the Bowl eligible.
I mean Kansas State's coming in tomorrow, so that two
touchdown dogs. Let me ask you this. And I don't
know anything about Kansas State. I mean I know about
Bill Snyder, was there forever two different long term runs there. Yes,
how do how does Kansas State do it now? Under
(06:27):
Bill Snyder? They were big Now this is before the
transfer port and all that. They were big at poaching
JUCO transfers. Yeah, I don't know how they do it now. Well,
I mean, let's be brutally honest. Everybody uses the portal now,
I mean there's I can't imagine any school in the
countryes ah more good right now. It used to be
you'd have to approach from the junior colleges. Now you
can go from any college. But I mean, I can't
imagine Kansas State having a huge collective that's meaning cash.
(06:53):
Who are the Kansas State wildcat billionaire donors, like who
is the most famous Kansas State person not named it athletes?
I have no idea. I'm amy would take a Wikipedia searcher,
you'd probably find somebody. But I mean, that's all there.
It's Manhattan, Kansas. It's literally in the middle of nowhere.
It's like plun It's like plunking Brian College station in
(07:15):
the heartland of America. But they win every year. They
wake up every year when they wins, seems like it
and all theady do is go to Big Twelve championship games. Yeah,
I'm trying to find a list of notable alumni. No,
there's they have no notable alumni whatsoever. Actually, the it
(07:35):
says under construction here. Oh okay, well you know, so
if you're a Kansas State olum, shout out to you,
because yours football team just and their basketball team is
usually pretty good, not spectacular, but I mean it's not
like Kansas good. But Pat Roberts, pat roberts not not
Pat Robertson, but Pat Roberts, former governor of Kansas. That's
(07:56):
where're going at this point. That's all I got out
right now, Okay, that's fine. That'll conclude our conversation about
notable Kansas State alums here on the radio. Christy Alley,
she's dead now. Craig Bowler Jack. Oh, Craig Bullerjack, voice
of the used in the Utah Jazz. Yeah, nice guy.

He was the pimp induced bigelo he was. He had
a lot of He had a notable stand up courier,

that one? Did not know?
Speaker 5 (08:46):

so that's the most famous alum ever to go to.
If Candasate was to go to game day and have
it there, they'd bring that dude out to make the picks.
Or the corpse of Christy Ally yes, oh god, ross,
what what if she got cremated? Do you wean the
urn out there? That's true. We put some Google eyes
on it, all right, And they sam to me one
(09:11):
of the duo here not being mean, yeah, I'm trying
to I'm trying. If a member of the Alley family's
listening right now, they're offended by I'm trying to come
up with solutions. You said, who are they gonna put
out there? Okay, well, I'm gonna put you on the
test for the next six minutes. Got to find some
fine like three famous alums from Kansas State. I mean,
come on, or was this our believe it or not? No,
I'm just saying there's got to be somebody more famous
than whoever you just brought up here. Eddie Griffiths, mildly famous,
(09:34):
as you mentioned, it's Kansas State. It's in the middle
of nowhere, but they win. Shout out to them. Mitch Holthus,
that's the announcer for the Chiefs. Yes and yeah, that's
about it. Lucinda Dickey was an actress in Breaking and
Breaking to Electric Bugloo. That's good, all right? Where are

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Lunchtimers, lunch timers. This is the Matt Thomas Show.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Thirty seconds remaining Green Rice sid against.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
So hand.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Tail, the shot clock tailor the double team trade on Friends.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Six fires and it's.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
A three fred babley was wide opened from twenty five
and he nails it to force of San Antonio turnouts.
It was to get a little nerve wracking ross late
that fourth quarter. San Antonio got to within two and
that was the closest they got. It was a close one.
(12:24):
A squeaker in San Antonio Malachi Brenham with a couple
of big threes. Okay, how often do you say Wemby
and how often do you say Wembin Yama on the car?
I go Vic, I'll mix him up Victor Wemby and
Wimben Yama. Okay, by the way, we need to have
this conversation. And by the way, Roger Hankta will get
you in just a second. What conversation you and I
(12:46):
talked about how we think that Wemby's going to be
a special ballplayer and he's going to be a thorn
on the rocket side maybe for the next decade as
long as stay in San Antonio and when if he
stays in the Western Conference, it's going to.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Be a problem.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Yes. Is he a finished product this point of course, No,
he's twenty years old. Is health going to be an
issue for guys that are seven to three? Yeah, it
typically is, yes, typically yes. But he played on the
worldwide stage and was the Olympics. It was dominant and
crushed everything. He was the Rookie of the year, like
(13:19):
unanimously right finished for like second of defensive player of
the year. He's developing an outside shot. It's not great
right now, but he launches some deep threes and makes them,
so you know that's in his repertoire. It looks pretty smooth.
And the fact that he shoots eighty seven percent from
the free throw line this year, he can show and
(13:41):
he'll be at the line probably ten times per game
once he develops even a more of a back to
the basket kind of game point being is this, I
love the Houston Rockets. They're my favorite team. Hand but
I'm also I can also observe that other people in
the league are very good as well. Okay, so Adam
is it's group text with us last night, Clinton, what
(14:03):
is he saying? Is not a big Wemby guy and
like group text? No, it was Craig. It was Craig,
me and him. Okay, He's just he's like blank talking Wimby.
And I'm like, I think you're gonna be careful on
this because I don't want to blank talking guy that
could be a serious thrown on the rocket side for
supremacy in the Western Conference when they get to be
(14:24):
a better even a better basketball team than they are
now hopefully. And so it made me he's like Wemby
anger do blank in the NBA and I'm like, I
disagree with you. What is ain't gonna do? Blank mean,
I need to get the definition from him, like how
many all stars are he going to make? Is he
not going to make the Hall of Fame? Connor? Let's
call Clinton right now and see if he's around, because
(14:46):
what you do, We'll let him answer the question. He's
not doing much, all right, He's probably napping and playing
on Grand Theft Auto teaming up with comic So I
put a question on Twitter, and now again, I was
gonna I assume the results were going to be heavily
skewed towards Rocket fans. Yes, but the question was, I
think when people will be an excellent NBA player Adam
Clinton does not? What do you think? And forty two
(15:08):
percent of you say good but never great, forty one
percent say excellent, seventeen percent say just a guy. Now again,
if you took that with a general NBA fan base,
that probably would skew a little higher excellent. But again
I got mostly Rocket fans that our Listen, I have
some news for you. If you said just a guy,
you are stupid. In his rookie year, he was already
better than just a guy. There were like five players
that were twenty one and ten in last year. He
(15:29):
was one of them. He was a nineteen year old
rookie and he finished second and defensive Player of the Year.
That's not just a guy, that's that's asinine. Yeah, so
I just completely discount that. Oh, now we have, we
got it. Let's put him on there. So let's not
put any words in his mouth, of course not. Let's
hear from Adam Klant Adam Clinton. First of all, good afternoon,
thanks for listening. And number two, describe in your mind
(15:51):
what you think Victor Webinyamma will be as an NBA player.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
He's just a guy.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
How many All Star teams?
Speaker 4 (16:01):
Zero?
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Just a guy would make zero All Star teams.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
I don't think he's just a guy.
Speaker 7 (16:07):
I think it'd be good, but I'm not I don't
think he's gonna like, you know, I don't think they're
gonna be changing the dimensions of the lane and talking
about what just an amazing aura he had as a
big man.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Years from now.
Speaker 7 (16:18):
I don't think we're headed there.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
How many All Star teams? I mean, is he gonna
make the Hall of Fame?
Speaker 6 (16:24):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (16:25):
Well?
Speaker 7 (16:25):
I was actually closure, Yeah, full disclosure. I don't think
we're also mine this. We were texting about this last
night and I said, you know he is. He's a
discount Ralph Sampson, very very good, very very skilled, and
it's going to be very sad for San Antonio fans
when his knees get out of get out on him
(16:46):
and he's gone to about five All Star teams but
never really wins anything for them. That's what I think
he's gonna do it now.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
I did bring that up. I said, look, seven three
guys can face challenges like that, especially those that are
a slight build, but that you can said that about
a lot of mbia. I mean, look at Joel Embiid
is a big, physical, legitimate center and he can't stay healthy.
Same thing for Anthony Davis. I mean, health is always
a prerequisite for any in star player. You would even
admit that.
Speaker 7 (17:10):
So but again, yeah, and a look at look at
what happened with Yao Ming.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
But you know he came into the league.
Speaker 7 (17:17):
You know, the pressure was on him to build up
his bodies that he wouldn't get bodied around, wouldn't get
pushed around. And I think you know, if you look
at Wimby last night, he looks like he's put on
some muscle mass, but Steven Adams is throwing him around
like a rag doll, and I just don't think that
he's going to be as effective. Now. Look, if his
game is to sit out on the perimeter and chuck
(17:39):
threes from forty five feet like he did last night,
then maybe he can have some some Maybe maybe he
can linked in his career. But he's never going to bang,
you know, with the big guy, and maybe that's not
today's NBA anyways, maybe he doesn't have to, so you know,
from that standpoint, maybe his career is extended. But I
just think physically, I don't know. He has all the
(18:00):
attributes to the guy who's gonna just Oh his legs
snapped in hats and we didn't see that coming. But
like that's that's just kind of how the feeling I
get from him. And again, if he's so great, if
he's so amazing, he never even remotely took that game
over last night. It was Chris Paul, eighty year old
Chris Paul that was taking over that game late.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Yeah, I just he got twenty rebounds in four blocks. Also,
by the way, I'm just saying I lost Yeah, but
that's this is one regular I mean, I'm I just
disagree with you that I think that we're gonna be
talking about Victor women yammer for a very long period
of time. Hell, the Rockets, if they would have got
the number one pick, we would have already raised a
banner in the Tota Center for the guy because we
(18:41):
think he's gonna it was gonna be special. He was
a consensus number one pick, he did not let anybody
down last year. And are there parts of his game
that absolutely have to improve, no question about it. But
for right now, the progress says this guy was everything
is advertised when he was going to be the number
one pick in the draft, and I guarante nobody in
San Antonio is disappointed not to have him, and I
(19:02):
guarantee that every on the thirty teams in the NBA
would build a franchise around the guy.
Speaker 7 (19:08):
Yeah, I agree with all of what you just said.
Here's the thing, and you'll remember this because you were
there for it. Obviously. I had this conversation with Craig
Ackerman very very early on in Yannis's career, and he
was kind of ahead of the curve as he was
kind of becoming that that monster player, and he's like, man,
Giannis is really really good. So I started watching him
(19:28):
more closely, and I see the promise. And I'm not
saying you can't see that with Victor woman Yama, I
just don't. I don't think he's going to just change
the game and dominate. The only reason he would dominate
if he did is because of his height.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
But he doesn't do that.
Speaker 7 (19:45):
He's just I don't know what it is about him.
I can't even like put a finger on it.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
I just.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
I'm helping you out because it says is there a
homersm to this? Absolutely, this is who I am.
Speaker 7 (20:00):
But if you're asking me, like purely from a basketball standpoint,
I'm telling you it was easier for me to see
what people were saying about Giannis than it is with
this guy. I just think he's, Oh, he's got stiff
written all over him, just stiff.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
He's a bomb weekdays three to a second. Lord mmm,
I don't even know if that weren't a response we're
gonna have. We're gonna have this for you and I
to have a good, good old fashioned argument about for
the next ten years. Are you ready for it?
Speaker 4 (20:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (20:29):
But Matt, can you promise me something for Saturday night
when the Warriors are in town?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Oh? No, what do you You going to do the
lineups like they like I did for Golden State?
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Well, yeah, you always do that, you.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Know when you're not the PA.
Speaker 7 (20:40):
But no, no, no, it's just something completely different and unrelated.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
What is it?
Speaker 7 (20:44):
Can we take another pregame pick because I really like
the one that we took.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Can we stare into the sky?
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Yeah, you have to look off.
Speaker 7 (20:52):
Into the distance and contemplate your future as a broadcaster.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
I will do that. Adam Clayton three to six's part
of the team C later. All right, that's Adam. Don't
miss it. I wouldn't miss it. A lot of more
great takes just like that one. Okay, three we disagree,
I mean it, first of all, nobody has the right
answer at this point. I just I'm just telling you.
I know when I like, when I like. My proudest
(21:15):
NBA analysis is this is goofy Okay. But I knew
Ben Simmons was going to be a stiff, and I
know there were some very high marks and what he
did early in his career, but I still from watching
enough of him in college the one season was at
LSU and watching his NBA days that there was a
serious problem with him. And I know Ben's back in
the NBA now and trying to play, but I was
(21:37):
that to me was the overrated. This guy's changing the world.
Because if you do everything at a brilliant level except
a ability to shoot Rossie and be want to shoot
like more like importantly want. You don't want to shoot.
If you don't want to shoot, you're never.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
Gonna be it.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
You're never gonna be that that franchise as type player. Yeah,
he might not want to be out there, all right, Victoriama.
As long as he's healthy, he is at his very
very worst going to be an extremely impact player on
even on the defensive. I mean, I can tell you
right now first hand, apprinshing Gun is not looking forward
to four matchups per year. I know somebody Appy's had
some good success against it, but it has been Maine easy.
(22:15):
He had the forty five point game against Victor Wimbinyama,
which was the best game of his career, but in
these two games, he scored six points and twelve points,
and he was not on the court for the comeback

Speaker 1 (24:53):

Speaker 8 (25:37):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (25:38):
Yeah, like some sad music. Sad music, Okay, now, don't
go to the normal stuff. That's like the the like
the tension filled sad. Just you know, you put that
one song over and over again. What song you know? Uh,
we haven't played in a while, but there was one
song you were going to quite often, just find stuff
that don't care because I want to just read this
(25:59):
he's that's oh yeah, this is perfect. This is not perfect.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
It is what it is.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
Jesus Jamaico Ryans moments ago says that Stefan Diggs torres
a c l It is out for.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
The year.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
So if you love you some tank dew, you're gonna
get more of it. Save us, Nico Collins your only hope.
If you love Xavier Hutcheson, you're gonna get more of that.
If you think in Mechi, we trust Dalton Schultz. It's
Schultz season. Let's go West'm not forgetting anybody else. Can
(26:51):
we go grab Noel Brown back from the commanders?
Speaker 4 (26:53):
No?
Speaker 3 (26:53):
I don't think so. This is horrible and I'm gonna
put my name on something right effected, Go ahead, go ahead,
Texans hater Matt Texans relis on his grave, Texans realist.
That was the last time you saw Stefon Diggs in
a Texan junial. So what they swung for the fences
and didn't work out? He'd been great all year. They
(27:14):
swung for the fences and it was a John Singleton
m chopper a second on one, easy hot, But at
least it wasn't an Aaron Judge strikeout. I think they
let's at least a single Matt, come on, it's at
least a bloop single. He got you like five hundred
yard Texas zero. All right, okay, we're talking about the
entire season? Yeah, how many? How many yards and touchdowns
(27:37):
did he end up with? At least he's not finding
members of the media, although you see he's going to
be a locker room cancer and submarine the team. Okay,
four hundred ninety six yards and three touchdowns not bad? Hmm,
all right, let's keep the music out. Seven three to
(28:00):
five seven, Hony, we have we need someone right now.
We have some other NFL breaking news real quick. If
you want is it worthy of I think it's at
least one maybe two? Okay, hit it, go too? You
want another one? On? Yes, go ahead, hit it again?
Another one. Anthony Richardson to the bench for Joe Flaco.
(28:22):
That's not good news for US Adam Schefter Indianapolis is
benching the former first round pick Anthony and Richardson and
turning to veteran Joe Flacco sources, Tail Feller, ESPN, and meat.
I got news for you, Anthony richard sucks and never
should tell the truth. Remember lying is your best friend.
I'm getting bench for Joe Flacco. Forty year old Joe Flacco.
(28:42):
How does that feel? But Joe was okay last year
for the Browns. I mean he wasn't great in the
playoff games. Coach has met this morning and made the
seismic organizational decision to change a QB. Yes, and next
time when someone asks you why you tapped out, you
say because you had a hamstring issue or your thigh
was hurting. Stephan Dicks, are you gonna go ahead and
do it? What was your favorite? Stephan Diggs is a
(29:04):
Texan moment? Okay, I'm just gonna put it on Twitter.
John and Needville on seven ninety. Hello John, somebody else
does because I know it's your bet, but that is
my big if. People steal it all the time. Hi John,
You did it?
Speaker 6 (29:18):
Matt Ross, remember back when the season training camp was starting.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Yes, and Matt went off and ran his mouth.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Oh they're gonna have a major injury over there on Kirby.
Uh huh, Matt did it, So now I'm gonna do
it to Matt.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
Y'all gonna have a major injury with those demons on
that basketball court.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Oh they think anyway? John, John, you can't carry my
water pail. You ain't got nothing on this If I'm
gonna do something, I'm gonna do it way more impactful
the you're sorry ass later man, all right, I'm gonna
(30:01):
let the audience decide what Why are they gonna decide?
I'm gonna do it for your Twitter. I'm gonna give
you twenty minutes to decide whether I should put it
out there or not.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
Just do it.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Just zero days, zero to it. You get twenty minutes,
Just do it. The answer is should I And the
question is yes, it's a bit no too soon. Here
we go, get it over with, and I will only
I will only decide on whether or not I do
it based off of I mean, yeah, he's he's likely
gone unless he somehow decides to come back on some
kind of team friendly deal, which is I just don't
(30:30):
see that happening. But team what is team friendly to you?
One year tare minimum? No for guys off a fresh
ACL injury. No, you're not paying the l injuries, not
a death now thirty plus year old guys, It is no,
it's not okay, he's never gonna play again. No, but
ten ten million dollars or not if you wants to
come back for five okay? Hashtag great value. Okay, Neigel,
(30:53):
Vancouver is that British Columbia or Washington on Sports Talk
seven on a Hello Needel.
Speaker 8 (30:59):
Beautiful British Columbia and it's Nigel and that's very you know,
you say this all the time regarding Stefan Diggs. This
is a good thing, not obviously for Stefan Diggs, because
did you notice what happened when Stefan Diggs went out?
(31:22):
Tank Dell started performing. He has also catches, of course
one of these, but one of those was for a touchdown.
I do I think that we need to see some
more John Metchi as a Canadian, I would like to
see that happen.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
You know what Canadian football acumen is terrible. Well he
should be on the Blue Bombers.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Yeah. Probably.
Speaker 8 (31:45):
Well let's hope that he's better than that.
Speaker 3 (31:47):
But let's go Who's who's the Is the BC Lions
a four point favorite against the Argonautzer are the underdog?
Le's the over under in this week's game?
Speaker 8 (31:55):
I have no clue I'm going to I am going
to the Great Cup because it is in Vancouver this year. Well, regardless,
I honestly think as a holistic thing, Stefan Diggs not
being on the team is a good thing. It's going
to open up uh more days for our young receivers.
Dalton Scholz needs to get going.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
I'm about the offensive line, but well, of course we're
all that's the number one concern. Look, if they get
pack Nico Collins and as he stays healthy and Tank
del stays safety, they're going to be still in a
good spot.
Speaker 8 (32:28):
What about trading for Mike Williams. If we're trying to
shoot the moon this year, let's do something so good.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
That the Jets traded for DeVante Adams, who's washed. Yeah, thanks, Nigel.
Mike Williams's point, though, you're not trading for I mean
all the Marquee guys are gone. You're gonna get a
seventh rounder. Yeah, I mean who are the marque guys
that have been moving? Old Davante Adams, old DeAndre Hopkins,
(32:56):
else Cleveland receiver that went to the Mark Cooper I think.
So let me tell you how many catches did he
have this weekend for the Bills. I would have taken
all three of those guys. Absolutely would have taken all. Right,
Cooper's like in his thirties, two, isn't he? Yeah? But
I mean, that's what I'm saying. The anything that was
left was traded for. By the way, the pole question
(33:16):
has seventeen minutes left? Fifty yes, forty eight percent? No,
you all right over there? I almost dropp coffee on
this whole hot coffee or cole almost pulled to Matt Thomas.
That's not nice. I'm actually in the room here, all right.
So Stefan Diggs is out great for the year and
(33:40):
perhaps for his legacy as a Houston Texan whose jersey
should be retired first Ed Reid's or Stefan Diggs let
to go? Eric Molds Was he a tex Was he
a Textan too?
Speaker 4 (33:52):
I see?
Speaker 3 (33:53):
Who was? Damn dude? Who else will says short term Texan?
I mean like super short term? Oh, am On Green,
Matt Saw Matt Lionert, how about Aman Green? Texans legends?
Who are the faded? He just goes on the list
faded stars who came here in Houston and didn't do
squat okay seven, he tour his acl Arman Green was terrible.
(34:18):
Ed Reid was washed, yep, Eric Bolds was done. Dan
Rolovsky Okay, Dan Rolowski was never a star. We're talking
about like, oh, they're talking about. Okay, I got faded
stars seven one three two one two five seven ninety
you know what? You know what we need now? No,
I don't know we need something uplifting. I'm got to
(34:39):
hear for you. What does that mean? University of Houston
football big win against Utah Saturday. They're gonna take on
Kansas Date this Saturday at TDCU Stadium in a two

Speaker 3 (35:37):
The morning Sports show for those who partied in Midtown
way too hard. Last night the Matt Thomas Show on
Sports Talk seven ninety. All right, you guys have got
great memories. A bunch of names are coming in on
Stefan Diggs type plas. Come on, man, this you brought
(35:59):
this up just is gonna be depressing.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
Here are the candidates, Jeff Garcia, Jake Delome, Uh, Tony
besselling on the list. Uh, let's see sumes have sent
that out there? What else? Ron didn't even play it down?
Ron Dayne. Ron Daye is a pretty good one. But
I didn't have much of an NFL career either. But
(36:23):
great college back though. Wouldn't Dane a decent giant for
a while? He was okay passed up Ricky Williams. So
I'm still bitter about that. It's not good at all.
Seven one three two one two five seven nine. If
you want to jump at seven one three two one
two five seven nine zero, let's go to will in
the Woodlands on seven Ony. Hello, Will Hello, I've got
(36:46):
two guys I want to throw in the mix.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
I got Brandon Cooks and Vince will Fork.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
Oh, Wilford was good. Was good for a couple of years. Yeah,
he was just clearing in the back end. But Vince
played and helped. Yeah, he made barbecue in his overalls.
I mean he was great. He was more of a character.
Speaker 4 (37:08):
He was hungry.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
He was hungry. Had two seasons. I thought he was
Brandon Cooks, Brandon cook for the Cowboys. Yeah, and then
he got salty with a team here like trade. I
don't care, right, Yeah, yeah, those are good ones speaking
of a thousand yards, but I would say Brandon Cooks's
career is more two of them. He had two thousand
yards seasons here. Yeah, he remember, he remember he wanted
a week off or something. That wasn't there something going
(37:30):
on with some kind of thing. He needed some time away.
He was tired, and say he didn't pull in Anthony Richardson. Yeah,
got benched now. Yeah, No, I would put Stefan Diggs
short tenures of Textan. That's gotta be Ron Dane, right, No,
because Diggs was Diggs was great in his prime. Okay, well,
(37:51):
then who's good until he got hurt? But Sally was
never good as a Texan. No, I mean Jeff kind
of Jeff Garcia do as a Texan, he was great.
I don't believe that he made me started like one
or two games. Yeah, but see nobody brought in Jeffe
Carcia because oh this is gonna be difference because you
brought him in for as insurance. This was supposed to
(38:13):
be a well when you originally traded for him, he
was having multi year deal. Ed Reid wasn't hurt though,
but ed didn't dis was decent. Didn't we know that
Edard was gonna be over ready to going in. We
had read on a mobile call. Remember, yeah, Ede, we
hed to reading the moment we miss him. Let's talk
to uh Frank on the north side on seven nine
and twelve fifty two. Thank you Frank for calling. What's
(38:35):

left here four minutes left. Oh it's it's happening. Sixty
four percent said yes, Oh you didn't even you just
said should I yeah, I didn't want to put it
out there. But if you listen, if people figured out whatever.
(41:52):
People aren't listening to the show, Matt. Sometimes people are
busy seventy four people listening right now that they just
saw it on Twitter. They're probably just clicking buttons. Well,
it could be should I should I hit somebody? Should
I hit Frank? Yeah, we don't know all the comments.
You got one comment and no likes. Yeah, that's fine.
Three comments. But Wemby is overrated. Oh unless a bunch
(42:16):
of people come in with those in the next four minutes,
it's over Wemby is overrated. I mean it, guess it
depends on how you want to look at it. He
is not an all world top ten player in the
NBA right now, but he has that potential. Professor b
Neils's digs equals Eric Molds. See I wasn't in town
(42:37):
Eric Molds sign here, so it was Molds was just bad?
Was Was he just a step super super slow at that?
Speaker 8 (42:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (42:42):
I mean the Buffalo Bill's legend Eric Molds something. You
see what he did as a Texan up sixteen games?
Oh I'm sorry, yeah, sixteen games, five hundred and fifty
seven yards. That's just a guy that was out there
and didn't play well.
Speaker 4 (42:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (42:55):
So fan Davis was playing good until they got hurt.
That's over. Yes, I will. It's not that bad of
a comparison. One touchdown five hundred and fifty seven yards
for Eric Molds in sixteen games, sixteen games seven one
three two one two five seven NINETI we know we
need some gut feelings. Okay, somebody want to go opposite

This is their gut feeling on the Matt Thomas Show.
(44:44):
Sorry about that and I mean to talk over the
big voice guy all right. Time now for some serious
predictions sports RV. When it comes to what is going
on the sports world. How did we do last week?
Bo If you have any gut feelings, get in here
right now at seven one three two one two five
Sevannini seven one three two one two five Seminati. Okay, Matthew,
(45:06):
we will go to the archives last week. You said
Texas and Georgia will play again at some point. M hmm.
That remains to be seen. Thankfully, the Longhorns escaped with
a win in Nashville, so their playoff hopes are alive.
You have the Rockets winning forty eight games, yep, so far,
(45:28):
they're on pace for forty one. Yeah, so they gotta
pick it up a little bit. They gotta pick up
the pace, and that starts with a really easy game
in Dallas. Easy is it? Do you say it was easy?
All right? I like that the spending Western Conference champion
trade at the deadline made by the Houston Texans.
Speaker 4 (45:45):
Did it really well?
Speaker 3 (45:47):
Say, okay, this has significant trade at the deadline. I
think that means Texans. No, no, no, no, no, no,
oh no, you're right, you know what, it's Rockets.
Speaker 2 (45:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (45:55):
I was gonna say I don't no, no, no, because
I I think you're going to tell the truth that
he won't. But now I guess the question could be,
can you mind it? Do you think the Texans will
pull off some sort of deal that would be pretty
darn quick. The deadline is November fifth, that's next Tuesday.
I think that's also the only thing happening that day.
That's it. There's nothing else going on. Actually, Carly is
(46:16):
a playoff volleyball game. Good, So there you go. Playoffs, playoffs. Yeah,
let's go Kingwood Stangs. Are they the late Mustang?
Speaker 4 (46:24):
Thanks?
Speaker 3 (46:25):
Okay? Yeah. You have the Alabama covering the thirteen and
a half against the Miszoo. Sorry, I think they did.
Sorry about that. You had, Oh, we don't have to
go to Connors, we can skip that.
Speaker 4 (46:40):
We had.
Speaker 3 (46:41):
You had the Texans covering the six versus the Colts
they did not, did not. And you had Carly Thomas
getting her a thousandth assist by Friday, and then she
did she got a lot one week ago yesterday. Shout
out to Carl Thomas. Good for her, all right? For me,
I had the Rockets winning forty five plus. I said
there will be a playing team, but not top six.
(47:05):
And I said, oh, this is off to a good start.
Jalen Green best offense and I put my name on this.
Speaker 4 (47:13):
You did, I did.
Speaker 3 (47:14):
I was happy for you that do that. Jalen Green
best offensive season of his career so far, so good
with that. And I had the Texans cover the six whoops.
And I had Carly not getting her thousand assists. That's
an l Oh, yeah, Uncle Ross has already been Carly
was not if Uncle Ross had no faith in her.
So I was just making a joke actually about her personally.
(47:37):
She's putting voodoo hex on. What is she gonna do?
She a witch?
Speaker 1 (47:40):
Huh?
Speaker 3 (47:41):
You know how the curse sometimes hits in strange places.
Connemer govern said, missoo iss gonn upset though, did you
really say that? You didn't? You said they were gonna cover.
You didn't say they were gonna beat Alabama? Didn't get me?
Come on, I sure did. If we would have had
a quarterback, yeah, excuses different. So would y'all use y'all
want with ten players and go with the quarterback? You
literally would know no one took snaps under center. Our
backup was bad. Drew Pine, he's bad. Brady Cook really good.
(48:06):
Would you tell Drew Pine to his face how bad
he was? Yes, because he probably knows it. Oh. Connor
McGovern's very upset with Drew Pine, Tiger and Tiger Savage.
I love it all right, I will go first. Okay,
you can bet on over unders and you don't. Again,
(48:28):
you can't bet online here in Texas on games. Okay,
and if I wish I had time to go to
Lake Charles, I bet I would bet a not a
literal house, but a figuratively house on the under in
the Texans Jets game this week. What's the line? I
believe it's forty two. It's pretty low. I think it's
(48:49):
going to be sloppy. I think it's going to be
a challenge for both teams offensively. I mean, you got
no Collins, no digs, and you're going up against sauce
God no mmmm Dulton Schultz season ESPN has it at
fifty one point one percent favored by the Texans to
(49:10):
forty eight point five percent of the Jets. Jets up
to minus two. That line is moving and shaken towards
the Jets side. I was, I don't have an over
or on this. ESPN's app is not good at forty
two and a half, Okay, Yeah, I'll take I will
bet the figurative house on under the under forty two
and a half, and I gotta lay a little extra
juice on the final. I get it all right, at
(49:33):
least on ESPN. And I'm not ready to predict the
game because frankly, the Jets super suck, but you're only
only sending about eighty percent of the healthy Texans to
up to New York this week. Offensive line is still
a mess. You've lost a key player for sure offensively.
Uh and saust Garner is a really good defensive player.
I mean who is I mean, who's going to be
(49:55):
able to go after that? Secondary? The problem is the
Jets don't score. I'm saying this is gonna be. This
could a fluky uneven. I think America Ross will will
largely tune off, tune out of the Jets Texans game.
I think honestly, Al Michaels will be bored off his
ass and Kirk Kurbshrud will spend more time looking at
his dog and looking at the game.
Speaker 11 (50:17):
Hm.
Speaker 3 (50:19):
I'm really trying to convince myself that whole time you
were talking, I'm like, how can I how can I
find an angle where the Texans win? How can I
find an angle where cause they're they're fundamentally they're better.
But no, dig, this is a long trip, short week.
Battled and bruised. Your offensive line is a hot mess.
(50:41):
Quinnon Williams is lining up against Kenyon Green because Jared Patterson.
I imagine isn't gonna clear cut protocol by Thursdon. There's
no way. Yeah, that's correct. You're looking at two to
three weeks on concussion stuff. If it's the first time. Yeah,
either way, it's probably gonna be a week plus. You
don't know about Henry Totoe, you know about Alsie saw here,
(51:01):
Damian Pierce, you don't have your backup running back. Maybe
Texans lose. Yeah, Texans lose.
Speaker 1 (51:09):
Not, I mean they're not.
Speaker 3 (51:10):
Doesn't mean that the Textans aren't significantly better. It's just
you're gonna run into some bad name defensive score or
Damian Pears is gonna have to break a runback or
something if he plays. I mean, can you hand the
ball at Joe makes him thirty times and say, Brad
take one for the team here. Texans lose nineteen to
sixteen twenty one nineteen, No, they wouldn't. It wouldn't be nineteen.
(51:34):
Texan would have nineteen. They would have I'm saying that
nineteen for the Jets. I got twenty one seven. Greg
Zerlin has been terrible?
Speaker 4 (51:44):
Are they?
Speaker 3 (51:44):
Are they changing kickers yet? Twenty one seventeen Jetropolitans in
a game that does not it's not indicate where the
Texans are. Like if Ross the Texans lose on Friday,
which I'm not with you to Friday, I don't think
it should be a pity party. It should be just
a bad short week, bad injury timing. Nick Casiro will
do something before the deadline. Rockets next three games are
(52:07):
against Dallas, Golden State, and the Knicks. Three playoff teams
go ahead one in two, one and two are winning
two one and two. I refrain come in from that. Okay,
(52:31):
all right, Conn three and four A three and yeah,
three and four when we come back next Connor, what
do you got this week?
Speaker 9 (52:37):
I know I was wrong about my Miszoo prediction, but
I think I was right about my Rockets beating the
Grizzlies and then splitting the Spurs.
Speaker 3 (52:43):
Okay, we'll give you credit for that.
Speaker 4 (52:44):
Did you get you?
Speaker 1 (52:44):
Give credit? Down?
Speaker 3 (52:45):
But that's not very nice, sound familiar. Sure, but we'll
go to the Texans.
Speaker 9 (52:48):
I'll say Tank Dell touchdown, Joe Mixon touchdown, Dalton Schultz
fifty yards.
Speaker 3 (52:53):
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa hold on, Joe Mixon touchdown. This
sounds like a lot of points. Tank dal touchdown Schultz
fifty yards, the fifty yard.
Speaker 9 (53:02):
Games, and the Texans Texans Jets final will be what
twenty three seventeen Texans win.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
I love that. I really want you to be right.
I just don't know that you will be We know
what the Let me look at the weather forecast. That's
a that's a. That's another kicker too. Can we keep CJ.
Stroud off this horrible turf?
Speaker 4 (53:21):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (53:21):
I forgot about how bad this turf was. Oh my god,
this is as Ross. This is a recipe for disaster.
You know you're saying Tank Dell's gonna rip his a
cl No, probably something else. Oh come on, man, Oh
this is just a one break. How about some breaking news?
(53:42):
More breaking new? How much breaking news can one show
handle on one day? Trade deadline week? What do you got?
Carolina is sending wide receiver Deontay Johnson to the Baltimore Ravens.
So wait, so everybody's making moves for wide receiver except
the tax wanted Deontay Johnson. Here, Ross, this is a problem, Nicki,
(54:02):
Nicky c dang stop Ravens stopped getting measured for custom
sweater vest Jay Flowers, Deontay Johnson or shot Babyan's okay,
eighty degrees. By the way, in New York on Smarts
Andrews Isaiah Likelely and Derreck, Henry and Lamar Jackson. Who
(54:22):
who that's problematic? Oh? That is problematic in the AFC
more breaking news. Okay, this is a one star hit it.
Go ahead and hit it. Actress Terry Garr has passed away.

Matt Thomas continues on Sports Talk seven ninety.
Speaker 3 (57:33):
One eighteen on Sports Talk seven ninety all right, if
you have any got feelings, there's your last chance to
get in here, because we're moving on. If you don't
want to get in with one seven one three two
one two five seven any sports predictions, I forgot to
write yours down. You have the Texans losing? Yes, under
anything else? Can I say? Let's see what else we
haven't mentioned? The World Series? Oh, I'm holding onto my
(57:56):
Dodgers in five, feeling very strong about it should be
feeling strong. No team is ever even forced a game
six getting down three in the World Series. Let me
ask you this, what is how bad of a legacy hit?
Is Aaron Judge taking on this bad boy? Because it
feels like to me any and I'm not watching much
of the World Series. I've been busy with rockets and
college football, but it feels like to me he is
getting worn out on the social media streets. Yes he is,
(58:18):
but that's also I mean, that's what we do. We're
a nation of haters. You have to hate on people,
and I am loving hating on Aaron Judge just because
I'm rooting against the Yankees, and of course Aaron Judge
who in twenty twenty one ish when he covered up
his Jersey Mountain mocking jose L Twovea in twenty nineteen
walk off home run. You get no sympathy for me,
(58:39):
sucond Judge, especially with strikeout some more. And then Brian
Cash been going off on the well you know, the
cheap bit again a few weeks ago with the mad
Dog Russol exactly. So I'm rooting against him. I mean,
he's he's still fantastic, He's still an all time great hitter.
He is, He's an all time great hitter. Our basketball
OPSO leader for the Rockets is a diehard Yankees fan.
(58:59):
And matter of fact, one of his kids name is
Jeter Geez. Yeah, that's taking it too far, well, I
mean we named kids after stuff all the time. I'm
I'm guilty of myself. I know, say hi to Peyton
for me, And don't forget Cameron, don't forget that it's
two or of three on that one, but he is distraught.
He's he's given up. Get yeah, they're down three.
Speaker 4 (59:20):
I'd give up.
Speaker 3 (59:20):
But I mean, is there anything more crazier than the
elation of winning in a pennant in baseball and then
immediately sweat wept. I mean it'd be I mean, I would,
I would. An example I would go with is you
win the AFC R NFC and then you go to
the Super Bowl. I'll lose thirty five to three and
buffalo face. We know about that.
Speaker 8 (59:38):
Hm.
Speaker 3 (59:39):
Have we had a blot in the Super Bowl in
a long time? It's been feel like it's been a minute.
Speaker 5 (59:44):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (59:45):
The Broncos got destroyed by the Seahawks. That was almost
ten years ago at this point. The did the did
the Eagles beat I'm gonna go look a Patriots a
couple of by a couple of scores. But I mean
(01:00:05):
there was a time ross when I was in high
school that every Super Bowl was over by half. The
Buccaneers killed the Chiefs here I pulled it up to
in twenty twenty oh, the twenty twenty season. But February
of twenty one, that's when they get people forget about
that and they're like, look at this Pat Mahomes box score.
He was terrible. Both of his tackles got hurt. Yeah,
but he had no starting tackles against that ferocious Tampa
(01:00:27):
Bay Buccaneers front. Like, hey, last year was three points,
the year before that was three, the year before that
it was three. I mean, this isn't bad Tampa Bay.
And now Tampa Bay was by twenty two. Casey by eleven.
New England and the Rams played a Super Bowl together.
That's not true, is it? Thirteen to three was a
final score in that one. Yeah, the last straight up
(01:00:49):
beat down was Yeah, the Chiefs and the Buccaneers and
then before that the Seahawks and the destroying the Broncos,
the Legion of Boom Super Bowl. So let me give
you a score of games than when I was growing up. Okay,
all right, you had the Super Bowl. Then Raiders beat
the Redskins at the time in eighty four, this when
(01:01:12):
I was in junior high thirty eight to nine beat down.
The year for that, San Francisco beat Miami thirty eight
to sixteen. That was Dean Marino's oldest every year. Then
the year after that it was Chicago forty six to
ten over the Patriots. That was the eighty five Bears.
The year after that it was the Giants over Denver
thirty nine to twenty. And then the year after that
(01:01:33):
it was Washington beating Denver forty two to ten. So
it was basically five straight beatdowns. And then after the
year you had one close game. After this, you went
Samtrusco beating Cincinnati when John Taylor cut the touchdown pass late.
Then the year for that, the Niners went back to
Super Bowl and beat Denver fifty five to ten. I mean, Rossie,
there was a stretch of like six or seven of
those years where you were watching anything else on television
(01:01:53):
but the Super Bowl. Well, now the league's got more parody.
It's closer games, Yeah, thirty two teams, closer games, better competition,
hlatiously high ratings, AD sales are crazy, hard capped league, Yeah,
which helps, Yeah, don't. I mean, what is the NFL? Honestly,
(01:02:13):
what does the NFL do wrong? Because let me referee
such well, referee sucking all sports. They could be better,
They could invest in the better. Okay, time out because
I want you to walk me through this, because I don't.
I've had that argument myself, and I'm giving up on
that argument. Oh yeah, they just need to like a
startup referee academy and invest in their own referees. But
they won't do that because they don't care. But you
(01:02:35):
got to realize, if you're an NFL referee, wait a minute,
NFL referees had been doing this for a long period
of time. If you're an NF one, if you're an
NFL referee, you have worked college, you have worked high school,
you have worked pee wee. You just don't get to
go onto an online academy and get an NFL assignment.
You have to You've got every one of those, even
(01:02:55):
the lowest of the lowest officials have probably at least
fifteen years of experience. It's doing significantly games. It's like
being Yeah, but the pool of referees is small, I'm
saying wide in the pool. It's like being the hottest
girl at a at A one A school. You go
to five A, six A, it's gonna be a little different. Hmmm.
(01:03:17):
So you think the one A girl isn hot? I
didn't say that, you did. God, there's a great line
I want to say, but I want to protect the license.
Good job, thank you? All right, So all you're telling me,
is opening up academy and paying a lot of money. Yes,
(01:03:38):
they're not ever gonna do that. I think you'd be
a disappointed. I think you'd be disappointed. I think the
referee would would improve, Like you think if they got
more referees and invested in them, they wouldn't get better?
Uh No, because I still think the moment sometimes is
too big for the average human being. I know that's
it's a terrible statement to me.
Speaker 4 (01:03:58):
It is.
Speaker 3 (01:03:59):
Well, I think if they widen the pool of referees
and put them in through some sort of academy, and
then why why were they there? They've got so much money.
Why wouldn't they do that? Because revenue and ratings keep
going up and nobody cares at the end of the day.
We complained about it on Sunday and then what happens.
We're back there watching next week. But couldn't you say
that with everything in life, if everything had an open
pool of things to get better. Yeah, Like, are we
(01:04:20):
lucky to have our jobs? Absolutely? If they were a
better pool of people the academy of a broadcasting we'd
be out of work. Absolutely. Well, I don't know if
I well, well, i'd be safe i'd be safe, I'd
be externinarily safe.
Speaker 4 (01:04:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:04:33):
I I have come to the grips to the fact
that if you get a really well officiated game, you're
just damn lucky. That's in all sports. Rossie. They have
academies for baseball umpires. There are thousands of people umpiring
at minor league levels all across this country. There is
a chart to success a double A triple A major leagues.
(01:04:58):
It's still a mess, and we have data. Though calling
balls and strikes has gotten significantly better in the last
twenty years, that's not good enough an closer. We're closer
to one hundred percent than we've ever been. But these
umpires that are coming up are better, but nobody's satisfied
with it. We bitch himybody, pitch him on it every
single night because these idiots have technology to get every
single call right, and they're like, hmmm, no, we like
(01:05:18):
the human element, which means we like wrong calls. I
don't know. I think if you double the pay, if
you gave him a four year college degree, I think
we're gonna say this mistake is gonna work. It's it
has to start grassroots, it has to start at the
bottom all right seven one three, two, one two five
seven ninety speak of the bottom, Ross's NFL, Rewind's coming up.
(01:05:40):
What does that mean? I mean it's not a great segment.
I mean it's it's got a little bit of this segment.
You can eat what you can leave the room. I'll
do it with Connor.
Speaker 4 (01:05:47):
No.
Speaker 3 (01:05:47):
I want to sit bang and listen to it, and
maybe I'll be wrong. Maybe i'll reevaluate the segment. Maybe
I think it's a lot better than I should be.
I believe it was a seven to nothing vote on
the rusher or flush it. That was one week. People
felt bad for you, felt bad for me.
Speaker 8 (01:06:00):

do that on the nightcap. That's not a great segment.
That's why people's exactly around the league. But it's just
a different name. We do it once a week, we
don't do it once a day. Okay, we don't do
what we just bring up Bernie let's take a look
at what's happening with the Niners secondary this week. Boring
ass somebody cares Ross gets a fifth of Beethoven in him? Okay,
(01:08:45):
what yeah? Or fit the Scotch. I don't know what
it was. And you're gonna give us some things that
every other boring ass host wouldn't take time for. You're
gonna find it here. Thank you, Matt, go with the NFL. Rewind, Well,
what's instead of going to all the way back to Sunday,
Let's go all the way back to last night with
the Pittsburgh Steelers victory over the New York Giants. Giants
(01:09:07):
bringing pressure, Wilson lofting, Wilson has a man out there.
Wilson has a touchdown. It's a second touchdown for Calvin
Austin two hundred and seventy eight yards and a touchdown
for Russell Wilson threw a couple of dimes to George
Pickens as well. So far two games as a starter,
three touchdowns, no picks. Matt, I have to ask with
(01:09:31):
that defense and Russell Wilson playing the way he is,
Pittsburgh Steelers contender or pro tender pretender, They're a protender
pre tender. They don't scare MEO plause this way. Let
me give you my AFC power rankings. Okay, Casey one, yes,
Baltimore two. Baltimore just lost to Cleveland. We're gonna get
(01:09:52):
to that in a second matter. Texans three, Buffalo, Buffalo
or Pittsburgh five.
Speaker 4 (01:10:02):
Here you go.
Speaker 3 (01:10:03):
Okay, Denver's up there by the way, five to three.
They're five and three on the year. But let's focus
on that team you just mentioned, the Baltimore Ravens losing
to Cedric Tillman and Jameis Winston one.
Speaker 10 (01:10:17):
Oh four to go second and fifteen hup stays in
the backfield, Chambis to throw Tamis's time, Davis coby Tea,
that's Tilbn Denzil Tudstock.
Speaker 3 (01:10:32):
All right, man, feels like we want to call this
a fluke. We could call the loss of the Raiders
a fluke. Raven's also losing to the Chiefs in week one.
They have some impressive blowout wins, but also some ugly losses,
including losing it. Look, Jameis Winston's decent Browns are decent,
but I mean, come on, losing to that team, I
mean number one in the Rotten five. If we were
doing Raven Radio today, we would be flipping out. Still
(01:10:56):
we lost to the Browns and Jamis Winston. No, they're
wigging out because they're thinking, here we go again, just
like a lot of folks here in Houston think I
want to drop and I just don't get it. Now
they just traded for Deontay Johnson. So I mean, if
I say Deontay Johnson, Zay Flowers or Shad Babman, Mark Andrews,
Isaiah Likely Derek Henry Justice Hill is a good running
back and oh, by the way, Lamar Jackson is a
(01:11:17):
guy we've been talking about. Is back to back MVP.
How is anyone going to stop that offense? And by
the way, Johnson Alexander for The Chronicle says that the
Panthers did not get a phone call about Johnson at
all from the Texans. Well, I wonder what the draft
compensation is gonna is? Does it matter? I mean, I
(01:11:39):
know that he's stock pollin picks off the right, but
don't aren't you winning for the now? Don't you need
going in for Yeah, trading for digs in the first
place shows that you were going to try and win now. Yeah, absolutely,
but unfortunately Deontay Johnson is a Baltimore Raven and is
crossing the line to the AFC, So that is not
good for Youston Texans. All one more quick question on that,
(01:12:01):
Matt Lamar Jackson still your favorite for MVP. Yes, okay, yep.
Let's keep it moving along to what happened over the
weekend to the Texans opponent on a Thursday, the New
York Jets rogers undercatcher throwing to the right eludes the.
Speaker 1 (01:12:17):
Initial rush, STAPs up.
Speaker 5 (01:12:19):
Throws to the left side of the passes caught by
Devonte Adams, but he's good immediately by Jonathan Jones with
the forty six. When the pack is cutting down to
three out of two, New York's not gonna have enough
time to snap it against. So far, the Patriots winning
more than they gave us split against the Jets, and
they show their toughness mentally and in the end physically.
Speaker 3 (01:12:41):
In this game, rallying for the victory twenty five to
twenty two. Patriots get the victory. Matt. This is the
first time in NFL history a team has scored over
twenty points. They have not turned the ball over. H
and I believe I don't want to. I'm trying to
pull up the other third one two hundred and fifty
(01:13:02):
yards under for the opposing team, seven hundred and fifty
times that had happened before in the NFL, and that
team was seven hundred and fifty and Oh, Jets, the
first team to ever lose scoring twenty plus points and
not turning the ball over and holding their opponent to
(01:13:23):
under two undred and fifty yards. You know what, How's
that possible? You spent hours looking at that, and for
that I appreciate it.
Speaker 7 (01:13:30):
No I did.
Speaker 3 (01:13:30):
Somebody tweeted it, Oh, that's fine, but still seven hundred
and fifty and one, the one loss of the Jets
this past weekend. What tack's wrong with the Jets? There
are and I should have a better grasp with this.
They're just super underwhelming. Aaron Rodgers should not be as
bad as he is.
Speaker 7 (01:13:49):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:13:50):
You've got a terrific core receiving group. You've got Bryce Hall,
you've got a great defense. You've got the shutdown corner
the Texans should have had in Sauce Gardner. Maybe they
got terrible mojo. Man, they've already fired the coach. It
hasn't made any difference. It's just it's a mess there,
and hopefully the textans take advantage of it. Although I
think again, full week, with one or two more healthier bodies,
(01:14:11):
you feel a little bit better in this particular case,
I don't. I just think this is a right for
a little bit of an upset. Sadly, all right, man,
I do want to talk bears and commanders, but before
we do, we have to do a critique of the
call with Matt Thomas on this hill. Mary, go ahead,
So here he's gotten hit throughout the rest of the game,
and it's hurting hard.
Speaker 11 (01:14:29):
Now it comes down to one last play, and it's
gonna be getting longer by the second.
Speaker 3 (01:14:37):
You're all to be back at the thirty yard line.
Now you can step into it. Here comes to hail Mary.
Speaker 4 (01:14:43):
But the game on the line, and the.
Speaker 3 (01:14:45):
Balls don't there's a call that's.
Speaker 11 (01:14:51):
Prownd O, my jos, this town is going crazy, mad.
Speaker 1 (01:15:00):
Said right from the.
Speaker 3 (01:15:03):
Ten, ten out of ten, ten out of ten, Jim
nance still got it, Still got it? Now do we
have the radio calls? No, we don't. There's a folder
I pulled radio calls from and and this game is
not in there. For some reason they didn't load it
because shout out real quick. I mean we've got a
short time love. See if you can find on YouTube
a radio call of that catch. Yeah, shout out to
(01:15:25):
Fox Sports for not loading this that that call for
whatever reason. I just I can't find it in the
folder I normally pull all these calls from. But anyways, man,
now that we got the call out of the way,
quick question, I'm not going to hold you to this. Please.
This is a week to week and this is just
between you and me. Nobody has to know. No one's
buy stock in one Caleb Williams or Jayden Daniels right
(01:15:46):
this moment, say one more time and I'm gona give
you a fan answer. You can only buy stock in once.
One Caleb Williams, Jadan Daniels. Go, Jane Daniels. I think
you're right. I'll those are the two guys. Now, granted
this is don't think we're both gonna hit. They were
both to me to hit. The other three guys were
gonna be missus and will Levis miss as well. This
(01:16:09):
is somewhat bullish on him. He's been hurting. He sucks.
Mason Rudolph was decent. This weekend, although it was all
in a lot they got completely destroyed. I mean, his
numbers were decent, but not the result for the Lions
versus the Tennessee Titans. Let's do another one here as
we continue to go around the league. What about a
(01:16:31):
guy Bonick back without a huddle.
Speaker 11 (01:16:33):
Bow Knicks rolls to his right, throws it in the
flat side arm Jalil has it.
Speaker 3 (01:16:37):
Jialiel to the goal line.
Speaker 4 (01:16:38):
Did he get in?
Speaker 3 (01:16:40):
Yes? Touchdown Denver.
Speaker 11 (01:16:43):
When you see this throw by bow Knicks, he was
looking in the end zone, the north end zone. Jaliel
was too the in the flat on the right, and
he's side on that thing. I don't think he even
looked at Jaliel.
Speaker 3 (01:16:55):
Bow Knicks now two hundred and eighty four yards, three touchdowns,
no picks, however, but it was against the Carolina Panthers
who were giving up like thirty eight points a game.
It was basically like our buddy Nigel's BC Lions up there.
That's how bad it was. On the flip side. Bryce
Young two hundred and twenty four yards, a couple of touchdowns,
but a couple of picks. Nope, He's done right right
(01:17:20):
bon Nix, though we buy a little buk I had
I had no opinion on what's oever Bonix Okay, yeah,
I had him more in the bust category than it hit.
It's early, but you know what it also was the
Panthers and oh, by the way, Sean Paynon's a good
football coach. Say what you wilt about how much money
it would cost them in draft picks and that kind
of thing. Shaun can coach. It's just the truth. By
the way, Broncos five and three looking a little sneaky.
(01:17:41):
They are in the playoff picture in the AFC. They're
going to make the playoffs. Put your name on it. No,
but how about this, the AFC West could potentially have
three playoff teams potentially. Yeah, Chefs are in for sure,
Broncos are looking good and the Chargers are kind of
being sneaky at this Chargers are four and three. That
(01:18:03):
defense is good, justin Herbert's not asked to throw it
a ton. They got a good running game with JK.
Speaker 1 (01:18:08):
Dobbins.
Speaker 3 (01:18:09):
But the Bengals are lingering at three and five. No,
they need to win this week then to put them
in you know, three and five and four fours in
that big of a difference. I don't want a doubt,
Joe Burrow, I really don't. You're gonna You're gonna be
running into a massive tie. So I guess the loss
to Philadelphia isn't terrible to them because it's not a
divisional matchup at a conference, so that won't hurt him
tiebreaker wise. There give me one of these four to
(01:18:31):
two win teams and their best chance to who's the
best to make the playoff best chance to make the
playoffs out of these two win AFC teams Dolphins, No, Browns, Jaguars, Jets, Jets.
I think I'm with you the Dolphins at two of
back this weekend to the Cardinals one. Here's your Nflrwe
(01:18:55):
all right, did we? We're able to find the call.
Here's the call of the same play in that Chicago
Washington game. Is this I'm assuming this is Commander's radio
or Bears radio command. Commander's radio. Here we go, David's
backing up. He's just been the one flag, goes to
the right song, steps away from the defenders, gives himself
of time. Now steps up, fires heads towards the end zone.
Speaker 9 (01:19:19):
It is.
Speaker 3 (01:19:39):
Now ross earlier and made me rate the call time
to play ross plays rate the call.
Speaker 4 (01:19:45):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:19:45):
He does say touchdown multiple times, It's just the color
man won't shut up. That's the usually the case. See
minus won the ten four four Okay, uh best new
new Uh? Okay NFL real quick, we have a new
poll question up on the Twitter account. You're so ridiculous.
Best Richardson options are Bucky, Anthony, Pooh, and Vanessa and
(01:20:11):

Speaker 2 (01:21:40):
Let that boring brown bag lunch run in the employee refrigerator.
The Matt Thomas Show on Sports Talk seven ninety all right.
Speaker 3 (01:21:50):
I don't usually like to give Ross any run on
his tweets because normally they are a genormous waste of
time at breaking down soccer and Texas football. It's not
at all accurate. This is the last time I tweeted
about soccer. Well, you're just going to eventually, and it's
gonna borrow us a tears. I've got thirty five thousand tweets,
probably five of them are about soccer. How many? How
many do I have? How can you figure how many
(01:22:10):
you have? I'll go, look, you have forty five thousand,
seven hundred. You got to you got ten thousand more
tweets than I do. So I've been I've been on
Twitter since two thousand and ten. That's a terrible amount.
You're just polluting the timeline at this point. No, some
people have like two hundred thousand. Yeah. Yeah, I feel
like I think you and I are the reason I
think I have. Bomani Jones tweet I muted because he
(01:22:31):
was tweeting so much. Let me see, he's got like
a b hug your children, your family, Bomani four hundred
and seven thousand, point eight hundred, four hundred seve thousand,
eight hundred. Go look at Adam Weisers. Well you gotta
(01:22:52):
do one hundred and twenty thousand. That's a lot.
Speaker 4 (01:22:56):
Oo.
Speaker 3 (01:22:59):
I just got to get to know people. Everybody uses
Twitter for a different reason. Yeah, I need to you
know what, Quite frankly, I need to use it more.
I've only gotten thirty five thousand tweets. I need to
use it. Yeah, So I want to see five the
show up. Somebody's got somebody's got to do it. I mean,
lord knows, show's been stabning for last for one of us.
All right, So your tweet going back to the general
(01:23:20):
the conversation, pick, I love this show.
Speaker 4 (01:23:23):
I just did.
Speaker 3 (01:23:24):
Adam Shefter says the Panthers are getting a fifth round
pick for Deontay Johnson and a sixth. It's a pickflop.
So they swapped a fifth for a sixth and that's
all it took the down for Deontay Johnson to go
to Baltimore. Baltimore, the Panthers are playing paying most of
(01:23:46):
the salary. They're only having to pay him six hundred
and twenty five thousand dollars. Deontay Johnson, now he's had
some issues as far as uh, you know, in Pittsburgh.
Maybe he was a locker room issue and stuff like that.
But he's got great hands, he's always open. He's a
number one ride receiver, wide receiver. He should be here.
Speaker 8 (01:24:05):
M Mmmm.
Speaker 3 (01:24:07):
What has happened. Why is the Caceario making that? Why
is the casarro making that happen? Nikki c come on,
ye stop going on rat Rackafee's podcast or whatever the
hell that show is. Stop listening to dudes on dudes
and go make a trade. Oh man, that's seeing that compensation.
(01:24:30):
But I mean he had had some bad drops. I
guess this year is what the streets are saying. Well,
the streets are also saying that you're gonna see a
lot of Xavier Hutchinson and John Mechi and Robert Woods.
You're Hutchinson or Deontae Johnson. I mean, come on, easy.
I like Xavier Hutchinson. He's a good blocker. Come on now, Nick,
you know what with fire up? Nick right now? Wake
him up. You know Nick listens to show every day
he does all those Texas people think so well, there
(01:24:52):
are some rabbit ears over there on We know that
for a factor. We're just gussing the words on the street.
They like us or not like us. I don't think
they like us, That's okay, they like one of them.
They like Adam Wexler. Well that Adam gets more treats
from than anybody else. Adam's treats. Although I did get
a JJ Watt autograph Jersey. Yeah, that's good when he retired. Yeah,
(01:25:13):
I didn't get when he was playing obviously. No, that's cool.
Where do you have that? You to my office? You
flipped it on eBay already. No, it says thanks Matt
for your coverage. I'm like, you don't even know who
I am. It was nice. I mean the thought was
the thought was most important. That's great. I also have
a football from the Texans of a few years ago. Yeah,
I mean they're taking care of me. Okay, what do
you want it? Like Wex gets pizza and cookies and
(01:25:33):
flowers and shoes and stuff. I don't crush and hate
on them every day. You know what they you know
what they do? The Texans like me because I'm real.
Speaker 7 (01:25:42):
I'm not.
Speaker 3 (01:25:43):
I'm not, you know, vomiting over every single thing they do.
They're like, you know what, Matt's real. Matt is a
real ring. Yeah, Matt is real. I like his radio show.
Is that what they're saying over there? No, that Forrest
Gump is not talking Texans with him? No, I would
like a rack of ribs because guess what when the
(01:26:03):
Texans play well. Guess who talks about him like they're
a really good facts on football team. Me. No, they're
six and two right now, and you're hating on him.
I'm not hating on him. You're talking about how bad
that is the I know that's again, that's your worst team,
Matt Thomas and I quote, Okay, maybe I don't quote. Yeah,
that's right, you know, like you know, like Matt handles
himself very well with a guy who lies more than
(01:26:25):
he does. That's not true. Nobody lie. Yeah, everybody's saying
I tell the truth. Texans are good and they haven't
played their best football. Diggs is bad.
Speaker 4 (01:26:33):
I say that.
Speaker 3 (01:26:34):
You think I'm a hater. As long as Nico Collins
is healthy, these are the guys we need to stay healthy.
Go ahead. This is the only thing that will shake
my confidence in this team is if Nico Collins Laramie Tunsel,
c J. Stroud or Joe Mixon Laramie Tunsel. I don't
care if he's healthy or not. He's just a guy.
He's the victor women. Ya'm of the Texans. He is
not just a guy. Unfortunately, now I know you hate him.
(01:26:57):
I do hate him. I don't have the Texas. I don't.
Speaker 4 (01:27:01):
I do not like.
Speaker 3 (01:27:01):
I think Laramie tu compelfish. It's all about Laramie Tunzel
and doesn't care about this offensive line is in huge trouble.
I've got one for you. One player goes healthy the
rest of the way, but only one.
Speaker 4 (01:27:14):
C J.
Speaker 3 (01:27:14):
Stroud, Joe Mixon. Do you say non quarterback? You say
non quarterback?
Speaker 4 (01:27:19):
CJ.
Speaker 3 (01:27:19):
Strap, I mean Joe Nixon, Mixon, let's go. That's right, yeah,
because here's what I'm da no run game. Here's I'm
a little afraid of. Okay, can you do you? I
have the belief of once a hammy, always a hammy.
They are, yeah, reinjurable. I think the good thing is
they I rd him. They said, you know what, we're
(01:27:40):
not gonna mess with it. We're gonna ir you. You're
gonna be out for four weeks and then we're gonna
reevaluate you. Right. So I love that the Texans actually
approached it that way. But at the time, of course,
it was easier to do so because you had Stephan Dick.
Now he's down with his a cl injury, but yeah,
I think you've had When you rush guys back, they
re injure it and hopefully that doesn't happen for Nico,
and he's good to go, all right. Seven one three

it's one of your favorite songs, manage. It's a summer champ,
you know, on sunshine. That's not Man's dead. I'm walking
you hear that, folks, I'm walking on sunshine. Maddie is dead.
That's just fantastic. You know what You're off the dais.
I cracked myself up. Yeah, No, you're the only one
(01:32:05):
when I die. It's not a roast. Oh yeah, it's not.
It's a tribute.
Speaker 11 (01:32:09):
Now.
Speaker 3 (01:32:09):
If you want to roast me later, you can do
you can. If you want to set up a roast,
you can roast me. That's fine. It's too easy. But
remember I get a chance to it at the end. Yes,
and I and I would be I'll be writing that
script for months. Good you need it. Yeah, just be nice.
The next time you'll be nice to me is at
my funeral, and then other than that, you can be
(01:32:30):
as rude as you want to, like you are daily
twelve to three. You want to only say nice things
for the rest of the day. No, I'm only gonna
say nice things. Matt. You do a great job on
the rockets. You can't go fifty five minutes off taking
some slam at me. Matter fac I'm gonna try to
beat you. Yeah, is that me with the with with
the electrical shocks. If I say something mean about Matt
the next hour, there's no problem, all right. So in
(01:32:51):
all honesty, Stefan Diggs, it's not losing Nico, but with
Nico being gone, it's remember how this is was supposed
to be a triple headed monster, then the most unstable monster. Yeah, well,
let's be burly honest. Schultz has been Okay, matter of fact,
Schultz's been disappointment this year. His targets and catches have
(01:33:12):
been ticking up with Nico Collins out, and I expected
to tick up more so this week. You've got the receiver.
Care will be Hutchinson, Woods, Dell Mechi Mechie, that's for
my forget anybody and Schultz. Cad Stover's got a couple
of catches. Stover, So you have those guys, you have
(01:33:32):
Joe Mixon, and you have a very porous offensive line. Yeah,
I'd be if I was underdog fantasying on the fantasying
these guys. I'd be hitting the unders on these bad
boys to be burly honest.
Speaker 1 (01:33:44):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:33:50):
Yeah, But it's gonna be a team effort. So I'll
put how about this way, how about this grandiose statement. Okay,
if the Texans win this game, no matter what the
score is, no matter how it's played out, Texans win
this game, it is their most impressive win of the season.
Fight me on it. Short week, yes, long travel, short handed, shorthanded,
(01:34:13):
terrible turf surface. I would still say bills of the
Vegas biggest feather in the cap at this moment. But
I mean I'm okay with that statement. Be big, it'd
be absolutely huge. Everything is. That's the reason why, I mean,
let's be be honest. Vegas doesn't feel it. Because you
(01:34:36):
win as a two win team, a favorite against any
six win team. It never happened. It's start probably fairly rare.
It's also two points. You are on the road, it
is a short week, you are shorthanded, as we all
we mentioned on all those fronts, and with Digs out,
it's gonna be it's gonna take everybody. It's not gonna
be Xavier Hudgson you're Stefan Diggs now and you're gonna
(01:34:58):
fill in. He's gonna get seven catches for eighty yards
like Diggs has been doing. It's not gonna happen that way.
It's gonna have to be everybody. It's gonna be a
little Dalton Showtz, a little Tank Dell, little Xavier Hutchinson,
met you, whoever else, and you're gonna need that line
to hold up. It's gonna start with the run game.
And again, we just saw the trade with the Carolina
(01:35:19):
and Baltimore where we thought the price of doing businesses
lately before the deadline would be high. But it's not.
Maybe cause Cerio's like, you know, we got Nico coming
back in two weeks. We'll be fine. Maybe we'll get
Stover and Schultz more involved in the offense, because honestly,
how much, how many? How often is CJ gonna have
(01:35:39):
a chance to throw five and seven steps drops with
all the pressure coming out him. He's gonna throw underneath
and underneath. Guys typical their tight ends, aren't they. Yeah,
I mean or throwing the running backs, I mean Mixing
is a pretty good receiver of the backfield. Yes, I
mean Tanks here's reality tanks. It's a lot of pressure
for a five eight, one to sixty five guy to
be wide receiver one. It just is gonna have to
(01:36:00):
do more there. It's gonna be economical, it's gonna be
ball control. It's gonna be one of those situations. It's funny.
I was we had Willie Fritz on a few weeks ago.
He was talking about UH playing Kansas, and he said, look,
it's gonna be a ball control game where there may
be eight total possessions between the two teams. Maybe we're
looking at similar situation where you look where you're needing nine,
ten eleven play drives, take five off the clock, ball
(01:36:23):
control run. You're gonna if Piers can't go, you're gonna
use a goom w walle or somebody because you can't.
I mean, you'd like to throw Joe Mixon a hand
the ball to him thirty five times on a short week.
That's just not possible. That's also what the defense is
the yeah, yeah, so yeah, the vibing right, it's not good.
(01:36:45):
Team doesn't play well on the road. So, I mean,
this is the first week I think this year I've
picked them to lose. I think wait a minute, your
email address is not at Houston Texans dot com.
Speaker 4 (01:36:58):
No, it is not.
Speaker 3 (01:36:59):
It's done. Well, I've been right every week except two. Okay,
well I've been righting every week except maybe two or three.
You're doing a great job. Ooh see, I was waiting.
You wanted to see something rude about me. Your predictions
are so accurate. Yeah, every week, yep, including uh I
(01:37:23):
told you the Cougar's gonna beat Utah last week. You
did well. You also picked them every week I do, yeah,
I think so. Okay, Well, you know what, I feel
very encouraged about Saturday's game against Kansas State. You should
Willie Fritz is a good ball coach. Yep, teams been

(01:37:44):
There's not a lot on daytime television. There's no soccer
going on, so roths can't watch some game in featuring
two hundreds and one gives two craps about uh? So
we're watching the replay of the ut Vanderbilt game. Well,
we got Wolfburg, Wolfsburg and Brucia. Dortmann comes on it,
but two forty five minutes. Okay, So let me ask
you this. If you're ESPNU, you're throwing this game on
(01:38:06):
which was a and I didn't see it was. It
was a good game out of great game. It wasn't
one for the ages. Was one for the ages, but
Vanderbilt fought back. So let me ask you this, how
many people are legitimately sitting at home watching this game?
Are they literally throwing it up there because it's already on,
It's already the commercials already playing. They didn't cost doesn't
cost anything. There's no talent involved. Yeah, you don't have
(01:38:27):
to pay anybody. You throw it for free and then
maybe you get you throw a little advertising dollars or
it's some bonus, some bonus spots, play a package deal. Yeah,
like you know they said Bungleberry and then they throw
in a little seven ninety. That's what happens. They say
sell a ESPN and they throwing all the sprinkling a Basically,
we're the ESPN U of this radio cluster. Exactly. We'll

Can we get some rocket shadder going? Next segment, I
thought last night was fun. There's a new brooding rivalry
(01:39:36):
within the San Antonio Houston matchup, and it's a Dennis
Robbin look alike. Yes, things they have a little chippy
in both games, a little bit. How about the fact
that Dylan Brooks and Victor get after it on Saturday night,
Dylan the villain doing his thing, and so to Fred
van Vliet and Tari and uh Jabari. Smith starts with
(01:39:59):
coaching Doka. He this he likes when they scratched, you know,
I'm kind of taking on the person on that team too.
I'm ready to throw hands too.
Speaker 4 (01:40:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:40:05):
Really, people in the hallways and I was ready to
fight some Spurs fans. I went to the bathroom in halftime.
You were why because they were getting my way and
you go to the bathroom. I only got twelve minutes
to go to the bathroom. Gotta go. There's not like
a media.
Speaker 4 (01:40:19):
No, we're in the.
Speaker 3 (01:40:20):
Concourse with the people. We're way away from the action. Frankly, Oh,
don't bring that up at the Frost Bank Center now
it's at the Nosty Brank. Is this the first year
of it being called that second year?
Speaker 4 (01:40:29):
Oh? Whoops?
Speaker 3 (01:40:31):
Mm hm seven one three two one two five seven nine.
If you saw the Rockets game or listen to the
Rockets game last night, would like to chime in on
your squad and went even against the league last night
with a win over the Spurs. I want to tell
you about something that my family is very excited about,
and that is professional volleyball coming to Houston this January.
It's called Love Volleyball. It's spelled lo OVB because VB
(01:40:55):
is volleyball. But you know what love is, Love volleyball.
Is a new professional league. It's going to feature some
of the best volleyball players in the world, from Olympic
medalists to Instabla champions and international superstars. The season kicks
off January the ninth at the fourth Bend County Epicenter.
If you would like to go, if you've got a
daughter who loves to play volleyball and watch volleyball, why
(01:41:19):
don't you see the very best playing professional volleyball. It's
called Love Volleyball. And for more details and to get
a schedule and to find out what's going to happen
for the next major league going on in sports, it's

Speaker 2 (01:41:49):
The Matt Thomas Show continues on Sports Talk seven ninety.
Speaker 3 (01:42:01):
So are we seeing the real Jaalen Green Sports RV?
You know my rocket red glasses. Hopefully that says yes.
For the next seventy eight, seventy seven, seventy eight games,
there is one reason, uh oh, here we go, that
I'm a little skeptical. Ooh, the skeptical this is the
(01:42:23):
real Jalen Green. I want it to be the jail
real Jalen Green. Okay, and we will see if this
is the real Jalen Green. But career thirty three percent
three point shooter so far this season in four game,
shooting forty one percent. I expect he had six threes
(01:42:43):
in the first half last I expect that number to
come down. Regress them to the norm. Regress He's taking
eleven threes a game this year, which is to me,
is far too many for him. I prefer him to
get to the basket a little bit more. Yeah, but
if he's gonna knock him, if this is the real
Jailer Green, if he's gonna shoot forty percent from three
(01:43:04):
all year, but I just don't think he is. M
I kind of like that. Alpi has been a hero
a couple of nights, and Jalen has been a hero
a couple of nights.
Speaker 4 (01:43:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:43:15):
Well, Jay Jalen has led the team in scoring all
four games. Mm hmm, but it hasn't been super efficient
until last night. Yeah, he was held in check in
the third. I think he had ten fourth quarter points
and then the big assist the double team came out
to him. Fam Lee was wide open for twenty five
feet and is a really good announcer. Said he knocked
(01:43:37):
it down for a game winner. I actually want to
get it was the It was the faded complete for
the Santurine come back. By the way, there is a
new Biach in the NBA for the San Antonio Spurs. Okay,
Jeremy Sohan Uh what makes him a bach? We only
got into scripes in each of the two games. Yes,
and Ord travels around the San Antonio Spurs sirs San
(01:44:00):
Antonio Spurs circles. I don't think the Spurs are a
huge fan of his. Oh really, bit of a matt relaxed. Listen,
they call you Maddie the Insider, So I'm saying, I
don't know that's to be completely true. All we heard
it second and third hand. Are you trying to take
up for Woch now that he's retired? I like this
and they call me shams Thomas. Is that what they
call you? You better drink that water. Felipe On seven
(01:44:27):
ninety at two twenty one, Good afternoon, Felipe.
Speaker 4 (01:44:30):
How's it going, realist, Matt, battle Red Ross.
Speaker 3 (01:44:33):
What's up? It's hater? It's hater, man, you said something
mad about me? Oh damn, Well no that's just a
factory hit. Does it hit the bad out?
Speaker 5 (01:44:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:44:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:44:41):
How think accounts nobody? Yeah, you can't say nice things
about it when you call someone a hater. Well, it's
not mad. Get the shot. I think it's fine. D Well,
it's just being just being a realist Matt, about your
being a hater, Go ahead, different, I think.
Speaker 4 (01:44:58):
I think, I think, man, I just honestly, it couldn't
this like nothing wrong about that. You know, I hate
it if you're speaking real truth.
Speaker 3 (01:45:04):
So thank you, thank you. Felipe.
Speaker 4 (01:45:07):
Uh hey, so I'll just turn in because you know
you're talking about fighting over there in Santonio. You know
about these fands. You know you should get me a
call next time. Uh, but you did last week. I
know on the home opener for the Rockets you did
some like underdog, you know, fantasy picks. Yeah, I think
you should really do a bit like that, like every
day the Rockets played like, hey, underdog fantasy picks. That
(01:45:27):
would be a great you know what I'll do.
Speaker 3 (01:45:29):
I'll start doing that. I'll start every time the Rockets
play anything Houston related, like a Texans game or an
Astros or a nbgam Yeah, because we'll localize a little bit.
That's a great idea. Because when I gave you, I
gave you three picks for you on underdog, and I
was right on all three of them.
Speaker 4 (01:45:44):
Yeah, we're not just capitalize on it. But when I realized,
I was like, hold on this not just said everything.
Everything he said to it was just it just hit. Yes,
I should have want some good money on it, but
you know I didn't. I didn't. I didn't think about it.
I was like, there'd be a great little bit. Just yeah,
just one day, you know, I'm.
Speaker 3 (01:45:59):
An certain doing it. Shut out there, I'm gonna start
doing it. James and Klin took me up on the
bets and he won some serious cash. That let's do that.
Let's keep track, all right, we don't have to keep track.
We only talk about the good stuff. What I said, Yeah,
let's do it. Let's keep tracks. Keep track. Hey, if
Vegas gets if you win, if you go to the
(01:46:21):
to the book and you win fifty five percent of
the time, you are considered a now standing handicapper. Now
I'm not picking games, and I'll giving you some player stats.
I'm gonna start doing that. I think that's a great idea.
And let's keep track. We can keep tracking if you
want to keep track. All that money, I'm gonta send
your way. That's what I'm talking about. Of course, Matt
(01:46:43):
he's an underdog Fantasy promo code sports emptyket that dollar
dollar match. I'll scout all right. Oh, by the way,
Steven Adams loved seeing him for the first time. We're
not we have not built in our relationship just yet.
But it's about playing. So that's good. Yeah, set's good screens,
He's opening up things for Jalen Green, opening things for
(01:47:05):
other people, rebounding, pushing around. He points last night too,
got a couple of garbage baskets. Yeah, get some putbacks,
make some hook shots. Set the tone be physical. Let's
go Steve out. Javari played better last night with some
early first quarter scoring. What else men, Thompson's not going
to three down once in a while. Corner Yeah, they
(01:47:27):
clearly are comfortable with him taking corner thre Those are
the easiest per se of the four point shots around
the league. So, and he's been doing okay, let me
tell you he had a terrible season last year. From three.
If he gets to average, that's a win win. I'm
not gonna predict that yet. Oh so far shooting thirty
three percent. I don't want to get too much on
the weeds, but real quick, Stefan Castle is the guy
(01:47:49):
that's the Spurs. Yes, number five. He was the fourth
pick in the draft. Reed Shepherd was the third pick.
Did you any thought about Castle which you saw so
not really just a guy right now? I think, yeah,
and read Shepherd is kind of it feels like he's
finding as well. He's yeah, this is he's willing this
going from high end college to the NBA's grown ass
(01:48:12):
man basketball almost like his head spinning a little bit.
That's okay, I mean, and that's okay. He doesn't need
to be anything more than just learning on the fly
and kind of picking his spots. I think he's doing
a little more watching than participating. But I think he'll
get better. So let me give you an example of
how things have turned and changed in basketball. When Elijah
want was picked first at eighty four and Samson was
(01:48:33):
picked first, Oh, Elijah was eighty five. I think it
was eighty three. Let me changing Elijah won eighty four,
Samson eighty three because forty years ago today or yesterday
was Elijah Want's first game in an NBA uniform, so
it had to be four. Yeah, it was forty years
eighty four. Draft CBS put his first game on as
(01:48:58):
our national game of the week. When Ralph Samson was
the first pick in eighty three, they put him on
as the very first game on CBS that year. When
you used to be the first pick in the NBA draft,
it absolutely meant something, because the draft absolutely meant something.
My case in point is that read is right now,
deer in headlights. He'd be probably the first admit that
(01:49:19):
Stefan Castle, who was the pick right after that by
the Spurs at four, was is right now? Just a guy.
How's Zachlary Orisa Cher doing. I have no idea, but
point being is those are the three, the third and
the fourth pick on the floor and last night in
an NBA game, and they were for the most part
innocent bystanders. Is that an indictment against college basketball? Is
(01:49:39):
that the improved overall play of the NBA, or is
a little bit of both to say that even though
you were a top five pick, no minutes for you
and the NBA are ever guaranteed. I would say, I
mean Ralph Sampson was three time National Player of the Year. Correct,
Like Victor came in right away and took over Polo
ben Caro number one picked by the Ornin know Magic
(01:50:02):
scored fifty. They came right in and stepped in. But
I want that power. That happened a lot. Well, yeah,
I know that's a shame, but uh it was I
mean Chemolago and it had been to multi pole final fours.
It was also the fact that he was staying and
you know, you had to stay in college, right and
you built a name for yourself. Maybe it's a bigger deal.
(01:50:23):
It's it's older guys getting more season at the college
level that's making those guys coming out of the NBA
out of college in the NBA a much smaller transition period. Okay,
maybe that's the answer, because I mean I get this
list of these players we see and they're all one
and time. I mean, Stefan Castle of the Spurs was
the rookie of was the freshman of the year in
(01:50:46):
the Big East Conference. Huge deal. Then a national championship team.
He was there one year, reed Shepherd, what's second team
All American? One year? Done? Let's go get out of there.
Speaker 4 (01:50:55):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (01:50:56):
And it's I mean, it makes the drafters jobs harder.
You don't grow up, you don't have to see that.
You don't get to see a couple of years of
bodies feeling out, skills, honing and all that type of stuff.
It's way more inexact science than it used to be.
And also the the injection of the international game nineteen
eighty four. How many foreign players are in the NBA? Well,
(01:51:16):
Kim elicha one couple. Yeah, not many, But how about that?
It's what like twenty five thirty percent of the league
or something. And I got two seconds here? Can nil
keep some kids in college one more year? Maybe it's
happening in the NFL, I think, especially with running backs. Well,
especially because you have to be in the NFL three years,
all right, you have to be out of high school
(01:51:38):
three yeas true, So there's there's a lot more O
a time around as apples. Yeahs throw it out there. Well,
we'll see how much are the Jazz owners going to
play for that? That one kid? The number one overall
kid they want to go to BYU millions. So a
pro team is paying for a college player to play college. Oh,
the whole thing's dirty. Seven one three two one two
(01:51:59):
five ninety seven one three two one two five seven
ninety Stefan Diggs is done for the year. ROSSI was
I a little presumptuous in saying that he'll never put
a uniform on for the Textans ever. Again. We'll discuss
that next after I tell you about Game Day Men's Health.
Game Day Men's Health believes that you should have good
distasteron levels so you can have good energy, you can
(01:52:21):
feel more confident your day to day life. You can
have good strength and muscle mass when you're working out.
They want to make sure your libidos good, you're in
a good mood, and you have good sleep. If these
are issues that are all troubling you right now, at
least some of them are, it's maybe because you need
to testoster own replacement, discover your T levels with a
free T test that any of their clinics around town,
(01:52:41):
create a game playing with your license provider, and then
begin treatment. That's the steps that you'll go through to
join the game Daymn'shealth dot Com Family the final location
near you and get that free test t test see
if everything's okay. It's game Daymenshealth dot Com slash Houston.
Cass all across the country. They're successful. Now they've come
(01:53:02):
to Houston. Game Day, Men's Health dot Com slash Houston.
Time is two thirty four. It is the Matt Thomas
Show with Ross all Right, So Stefan Diggs is traded
(01:53:24):
from Buffalo to Houston for a conditional what was what
was that term of theft draft second the second round pick?
Not conditional second round pick? I don't know, okay, so
may have been no conditions on it. And I was
well beyond thrilled. Then it was the next day that
we found out that Cassario nullified the remaining years in
(01:53:45):
the contract, making him a free agent at the end
of this season. And I'm restructured the deal and I said, Rossie,
that's too much to got a sixth and a fifth
in exchange for a second and digs Okay, And I said, Rossie,
that is I think second round picks are very, very
(01:54:07):
important and unless this thing becomes a major hit, he's
a major hit here. This is going to be a
deal that I think the Texans will regret. Now, you
can't predict injuries. You don't want to get injuries. But
everything that Stefan did as a Texan while on the field,
both on and off, was good. He was well liked
and named the team captain, did the right things, built
(01:54:29):
a relationship with C. J. Stroud. Injuries unfortunately happen, but
the end result will be a loss if Stefan Diggs
does not return to the Houston Texans. Now, you and
I cannot determine what a value is. We don't know
what his injury status is going to be, how long
he's going to be out. It was it was a
(01:54:50):
long shot bet from the get go to where the
only way this trade was going to be a big
win for the Texans was if they won the Super
Anything short of that, you probably wasted a second round pick.
So of all the number of outcomes that could have happened,
which this tearing an ACL and weekend absolutely on the table,
(01:55:12):
absolutely one of them. Yep, you a thirty year old
receiver could be mired by other injuries, hamstring whatever, it
was going to be an l They shot for the moon,
They swung for the fences, whatever you want to say.
It was an all likelihood not going to work out,
and that's that's what happened here. Nick Cassario was pushing
(01:55:34):
his chips all in saying, I got a franchise quarterback
on a rookie deal. I'm getting them some more weapons.
I'm training for Joe Mixon. We're going Super Bowl in
twenty twenty five. So the reason why I asked this
is using betting, not betting, but poker. If you're chasing
after a bad bet, yes, on a flesh drawl, do
you continue to take the l by giving up more
(01:55:57):
commodities before this trade dead line in order to go
get a replacement for him, knowing that whatever you're going
to get, whatever player is out there still like Cooper
Cup may be available. Uh dude, Sean McVay put the
kaibosh on that this week after Thursday Night Football last week,
and they have also won two consecutive games, right, Kuka
Nakou is back? I mean that offense is I mean
(01:56:19):
they they destroyed the Vikings defense, which is the best
defense on the planet. Should have been anybody else that
may or may not be out there, does Cassarah in
the back of his mind and say, look, I've already
taken an l by giving up the second round for
a guy that's not going to help me win. Why
am I going after chasing another guy for a short
term fix? And I'm gonna have to give up more
draft comout because there's one thing that Nikosia likes, and
(01:56:41):
that's having draft picks. That's true, but two reasons. Number
one in that deal for Diggs, you got a fifth
and a sixth. It was a fifth and a six
swap is what the Baltimore Ravens. I don't know if
you would have to offer them more, but well, right
now the Texans draft pick would be higher than the Ravens.
But anyways, I don't know offer our fourth swap because
you can get Deontay Johnson here. I know he's has
(01:57:03):
a problem with drops and all that. He's a possession
receiver and uh probably average depth of target isn't great.
But this what Stefan Diggs was here. He gets open
a lot, and he's a veteran and he can help
your offense. Is he going to be better than Xavier Hutchinson?
That's all you're asking for the answer to that is yes.
And then you prevent him from going to one of
your top AFC rivals. We've been talking about all season
(01:57:25):
the teams that scare you most in the AFC Kansas
City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens got that much better,
and you are not able to You're not You're not,
I want to say worse. But you didn't make yourself
better and the Ravens got better. That's two losses.
Speaker 4 (01:57:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:57:43):
How tech man, I actually do know. I know how
Texans fans are going to react if if he doesn't
pull the trigger on something, either offensive line, another wide receiver,
hel Rossie, he could go get an extra corner. At
this point, Kamara Lasser's back. He's playing well, but did
miss some time. My point is this, if you are
as serious as you think you are in trying to
(01:58:06):
get in that Tier one group, which I believe still
to this day is kansaity in Baltimore, I think standing
pat at the deadline would not be the right thing
to do. It would be atypical for this team to
do it. But this is an atypical squad. You got
enough talent, don't you. Yeah, I mean it was a
typical for Nickossia to make a bunch of splashes in
the offseason, but he recognized the situation. It's not like
(01:58:26):
money mills and we're just turning over one year contracts
over and over. It's time to go all in. And
so yeah, that that dugs me some belief that something
could happen. But yeah, the fact that Nicosseio didn't even
make a call on Deonto Johnson I find interesting. All Right,
we say you're wide receivers right now for the Texans.
(01:58:48):
Ours follows Tank Dell, John Metchi, Xavier Hutchinson, Steven Simms,
Robert Woods, and Nico Collins. Back in a couple of weeks,
Nico comes back. You're good, Nico back. It's one hundred percent.
You ain't sweating it. But you are sweating this Thursday's
game against the Jets, for sure, Yes you are. And
(01:59:10):
then you have Detroit after that. You know what, Darling,
if you listen to me, Darling, this is me and
you talking, I know you're gonna have your bling on now,
You're gonna have your dumbass hat on, and you're gonna
be it's a chance to be on National TV and NBC.
I don't think you want to go to that game,
(01:59:32):
I would call I would call in sick says, something's
happened at the house. I'm gonna be at work early
in the morning if they don't. If I can he
go be back for that Detroit game, I don't think
you can. Right Maybe his fourth week isn't this this
fourth week on IR so he can come back, okay,
if he's available. If you don't have Nico Collins to
stretch out that secondary, how the hell are you gonna
(01:59:55):
win a forty three to thirty seven game with the
Detroit Lions. The Lions are looking pretty unstoppable for sure.
I'm gonna say right now, I think even Rossie with
Nico Collins, you need to go get somebody you can
score on them, unless you absolutely believe that Robert Woods
will step up and help that Xavier Hudgson can be
(02:00:16):
the legitimate w R three. I mean, they crushed the
Titans fifty two to fourteen. Yeah, but they turned the
ball over on their their own side of the field
like three or four times? I think did the did
the Titans? Before that? They were in a dogfight for
the Vikings. They did lose to the Buccaneers. They air.
They're not man. They're so good though, but they're gonna try.
(02:00:40):
They're gonna give up points. Do you have enough firepower
without Nico Collins going and even close, you can stop
them a couple of drives. And I guess the good
question is what wide receivers out there right now that
automatically you put on the other side of the field
opposite Nico Collins against try and go, all right, we
can win this game. You're just gonna have to keep
(02:01:04):
up with them. You're gonna have to keep up scoring
with them because they they have probably the best offensive
line in football, two dynamic running backs, and a bunch
of pass catchers. And I think is Jameson William Williams
is gonna be back by that. You got a two
game suspension. So let's look at the next two weeks.
Texans have a two game lead on Indianapolis relates to
three game lead because they've got the time breakers. The
(02:01:25):
South is over Colts at Vinkings. I don't care if
Joe Flacco or Peyton Manning comes out of retirement. They're
not winning in Minnesota. Minnesota's lost two straight games. They're
gonna beat up on that Colt football team. I would
agree with that. So let's say you lose the next
two that would then put you at six and four.
The Colts are then home for the Bill. It's over.
(02:01:47):
Even if you lose the next two games. It's they're
not going to win at home against the Buffalo Bills.
Probably not. And they're sure as hell I'm gonna win
in Minnesota. But again, here's the back to the central
point we talked about on the show yesterday. We're not
the Texans shouldn't be thinking. They're not thinking this, but
in the back of the mind it might be thinking this.
(02:02:07):
We got to climb the first hurdle, and that is
winning the division championship. The Division rap is wrapped up.
As matter of fact, with that Detroit game Ross, they
should drop the banner already. Really, it's over. Your Texans
are the AFC Soyle champions. It's a question out of seating,
and it's a question of can you go and win
a game at Baltimore and or at Kansas City with
(02:02:34):
the fire part you have as long as he goes
he goes back, Yes, and can. But how about going
to favor about getting a swing lineman two, doing something
to fill the gap linean it would be nice, very nice.
