Speaker 1 (00:02):
Brings Luke Musgrave in motion. Now he returns to the
right side. Pressure on Love.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Love throws the ball middle of the field, the ball
behind a.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Defender to intercepted, intercepted by Riley Moss.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Moss gets up and he's loose. Are they gonna say
he's down?
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Riley Moss with his first interception this season.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Packers look like they jump early deep drop by Love.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
He climbs the pocket hit as he throws that ball
is incomplete. Alex Singleton celebrates with two hands above his
head before the ball even hit the ground. And a
lot of people didn't think today would turn out this
way around the country. Some are going to be disappointed,
but I guess that's.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Just too bad.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
The Broncos are going to get out of here beating
the Packers thirty four to twenty six.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Amen.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
That is the voice of fuck Dave Logan being played
by play voice for the Denver Broncos. And this is
glorifying the good and what a run for the Broncos,
and what a run of their play by play voice, Dave,
who has done that job for thirty years and working
with the Broncos Radio network for more than that. But
thirty years as a play by play voice, earning a
(01:10):
spot in the CU Hall of Fame. As a former
Colorado Buffalo player, It's been almost a decade in the
NFL as a receiver for the Cleveland Browns, and Dave
also has won a state record thirteen state titles as
a high school football coach with Arvada West, Chatfield, Mullen,
and most recently Cherry Creek. My ma'am, Dave Logan, great
(01:32):
chatting with you and for our glorifying the good segment.
How's the head called? A few days in front of
the Sunday game against Jacksonville.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Well, it's you know what, Pight's it's better. I think
I think I'm improving, and I think I would be
listed as probable for Sunday.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Indeed, Yeah, first, I'm gonna yeah, it's I'm not even
gonna tell that.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I'm not going to jack around with the practice report
and make you probable. Your your fall and you'll be
full tomorrow Saturday and into it Sunday. With this team
that's won twelve in a row, twelve in a row
for the Broncos, and all but two of them have
come right down to the wire. How did these guys
Dave keep winning so many close games and against good
teams like Green Bay, Kansas City, Houston and Billy.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Yeah, you know what, Paul, it's I mean, normally we
don't you know, you and I have done this for
a while. We don't see streaks like this. I mean,
ever so often we'll see a team win eleven straight.
But they've done it. They've done it in a myriad
of ways. I mean, the winner of the Giants was
so improbable that I can't even begin that. It had
(02:45):
to be in the category above improbable, and I'm not
even sure what the title of that particular category is.
But they've played better I think the last three or
four games, especially in the offensive side of the ball.
And I think Knicks was, I mean, maybe his best
game against the Packers. He had four touchdown passes, didn't
(03:06):
throw an interception. He's twenty three and nine on the season.
He he and I've said this several weeks ago. I
said he's got a little bit of a backyard magic
to his game. I think that can be really good.
I think at times you can drive coaches a little
crazy because you you don't want to you don't want
(03:28):
to suppress that because that's kind of who he is,
and he makes some unbelievable plays, but you also have
to understand that with that quality, they'll be a throw
maybe two in a game where you're as soon as
he lets it go, you're gonna hold your head and say, no,
what oh, this could be real, real, real trouble. But
(03:49):
I mean, it's a young team, and I think the
beauty of this team right now is that they they
they don't really know what they don't know, and so
they're they're not fearful. You know, they feel like their
defense is a very good defense. And I would agree,
and I think they're doing everything they can to secure
that number one seed in the AFC. And if they do,
(04:12):
then they get a week off and they've got to
find a way to win two games to go to
the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Apologies, eleven in a row in search of twelve this
weekend against Jacksonville, and that's day. Dave Logan played by
play voice for the Denver Broncos fourth quarter bon Knicks
fourth quarter bon Knicks second year quarterback.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
He has the clutch gene, doesn't.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
He No question, I mean, absolutely no question. He is.
He is fearless. You know, he's got the mindset, although
I don't know that he would admit this, that there's
not a single throw that I can't make on the field.
(04:52):
And so he made a couple of throws against the
Packers last weekend where I mean he breaks contain, he
likes to get out to his right, maybe a little
bit too much, and then he stopped and came all
the way back to his left, running to his left
as the right handed quarterback, and then lowered, lowered that
arm slot and flipped it across his body back toward
(05:15):
the middle of the field. Both both were completed passes. Now,
I think you know, if even a casual fan looked
at that, they would say, man, oh man, I don't
know if you can duplicate that, if if you can
consistently make that throw. But he's made it many many
more times than not. And I you know, I just
(05:36):
think he has immense confidence right now. And how he's playing,
and how the offense is playing.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
What what makes the defense so good? Dave?
Speaker 4 (05:47):
You know what Paul I would say this, I think,
I mean, you look at their edge pass rushers, and
you know, Benito's an elite guy. There's no there's no
question about that. Cooper is a mixture of athletic ability
and power, so his his edge pass rushing is a
little bit different. But I think one of the things
that really helps those guys and the guys that played
(06:10):
behind them, the Jonah Ellis is the Dendre Killman's, I think,
is the interior ability to rush the passer. You know,
you've got Zach Allen, You've got DJ Jones, You've got
John Franklin Myers, You've got Malcolm Roach. Those those four
guys rotate. Allan, of course is having just a great year,
(06:31):
but they they they're a little more athletic inside that
I think they have been, and I think that has
shown in terms of the interior ability to crush a
pocket and make that quarterback sort of step up and
start to pinball.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Glorifying the good the Denver Broncos Victoria's eleven consecutive times,
they're a three decade three play by play voice Dave
Logan is on the nine to noon show how Ow
of general manager George Payton, who was here for many
years and coach Sean Payton helped the cause of winning
eleven in a row and potentially getting a one seed
in the AFC.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Yeah, I think it's a remarkable story. I think I mean,
to me, at least clearly, this year is a year
at least a year early. I don't know that anybody,
maybe even George and Seawan, maybe Sean would deny that,
but I'm not sure they saw this sort of ascension coming.
But they've been very good at identifying, i think, people
(07:30):
to bring into the building that love football. We talked
with two or three former players of Sean when he
came to Denver, Guys that has been a long time
with him, Guys that had actually not only played for him,
but coach for him, and they all had had various
things in describing Sean's demeanor and how he would go
(07:51):
about sort of putting the program together. But they all said,
he's going to find guys that love football, and if
you don't love football, he's going to find a way
to run you out of the building. And so I
think the overall culture has been dramatically altered in Sean's
two years and thirteen games. I mean, he's found guys
(08:16):
that are selfless, He's found guys that are team oriented.
In a day and time that you know you're gonna
have a lot of guys that maybe you're not not
that way that they want to point to themselves. We
don't have too many of those in Denver, and if
there are some, they have been forced into being very
quiet about it. So I think George and Sean have
(08:38):
done just a terrific job. But putting this roster together,
they hit on Drake Greenlaw in the offseason. They definitely
hit on Talanoa Hufunga, two free agents that had a
history of some injuries. They hit on both of them
from San Francisco. So they've done an excellent job, no
question about that.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
The thirteen high school football state titles at four different schools,
most recently Cherry Creek Cherry Creek High School. You know
it's the play by play guys in the NFL, all
thirty two of us. We have this really cool text
group tech string where all all of us talk to
each other, you know, in group fashion. West Urham with
(09:20):
the Atlanta Falcons, Bradsham with the Dallas Cowboys, the Genesis
was with them a couple of years ago.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I think it's really really cool when cool things happen.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
Cool things happen, or people go through stuff, and we
talk about booths stuff like that. But recently a couple
of Saturdays ago started blowing up, like with everybody wishing
Dave Logan good luck into a I believe it was
five a Colorado high school state title game for Cherry
Creek and you guys want it. So that's the state
record thirteen for you. What have been some keys to
(09:53):
winning all those Colorado high school football titles, Dave, Well, gosh, I.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Have been blessed to for my entire career, you know,
be allowed the time necessary to coach during the season,
during the absolute busiest time obviously. I mean I call
the Broncos games, also do an afternoon talk show, and
during the high school season, the radio station lets me
(10:23):
off the show so I can coach coach those kids.
So that would be one of the things that has
been a key. I've had probably four or five of
my core coaches that have been with me, you know,
twenty five years, and so we understand, we understand the process,
what's needed, what is necessary in order to not necessarily
(10:46):
ensure that you're going to win, but to put your
kids in the absolute best position to win. We have
an eight week program in the summer, starting the first
Monday every June. I mean, my golf game sucks, for sure,
But because we're out there three days a week, four
days a week actually in the mornings from nine till
about one one o'clock, lifting and running and putting our
(11:09):
offense and defense in And I've got dedicated I've got
dedicated coaches that work for about six cents an hour.
So in high school football's that's just the way it is.
I have such respect for high school coaches because there's
no financial game for these guys. They're in it for
the love of ball and for the love of kids
(11:29):
and trying to mentor some of these kids and teach
them a few life lessons and oh, by the way,
teach them a little bit about the great game that
we all love and hopefully win some games in the process.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
What and about coaching high school football and the young adults,
the kids, you know, you get them, as does some
of them as freshmen at age fourteen and.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Then not now we have you know, we have nil and.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
College football, and you know, the focus and the eyes
will be on potentially a different and prized than than
maybe even five, six, seven, eight years ago. So when
it comes to coaching high school football, what do you
genuinely appreciate about it? And how much longer do you
think you're.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Going to do it?
Speaker 4 (12:11):
Dave, Well, you know what, I appreciate the fact that
the overwhelming majority of kids want to be coached, they
want to work, they want they want discipline, they want
to be corrected. That there are some that you know,
(12:34):
probably don't fit into that metric, But I think there's
still there's still a significant percentage of kids that that
want to be taught football and want to be as
I said, coached and coached hard. I mean, we coach them,
We coach them hard. We you know, we'll put our
arm around him, tell them we love them as well.
But I mean we're we're trying to get them better
(12:55):
and trying to teach them. For guys that want to
go on and play in college, you know, we know,
we know what that step is going to be like,
we know what that process is going to be like,
and how best to get them get them prepared. In
terms of you know, how much longer I would do it, Paul,
I think as long as I stay healthy and feel good.
(13:16):
I you know, I've had opportunities to coach in college
and I've had opportunities to coach in the NFL. You know,
Coach and offered me the receiver's job years ago, and
it just wasn't the right time, and I would have
had to have given up a lot of other things,
including you know, being the play by play voice of
(13:36):
the Broncos. So I'm happy coaching in high school. Get
I get, you know, the competitive thing for me gets
gets satisfied with that. I still get really fired up
for these kids when we go into a game. So
I would just say, you know, as long as I
feel good and the message is still being received and
I feel like I can benefit kids in that way,
(14:00):
I'll continue doing it.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
As last one here, thank you. Dave Logan as a
prideful Boulder grad. What what do you think of the
state of Colorado football with Dion?
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Yeah? That uh, that's a that's an interesting thought. You know,
I give I give coach Prime a lot of credit
for when he came in. You know, stylistically, we would
we would, you know, we would be totally different. But
but he brought a lot of attention to that program
(14:33):
which had been down for a long time. I took
exception to some of the narratives out there nationally that
that he put CEU on the map and see you
and never have I mean, see who's had some see
who's had some great great players back in the nineties,
uh national championship. I mean even back when I played
(14:56):
in the mid seventies. I mean we had you know,
we had my senior class, we had twelve guys rafted
of six in the first first three rounds. So you know,
the program has had its day, but it'd been down
when when Dion came. So I give him credit for,
you know, kind of resurrecting the overall view of the
(15:17):
University of Colorado, but I you know, I'm anxious to
see kind of how he goes about sustaining or trying
to trying to sustain any sort of success with bringing
in as many new players. And it's not just Colorado,
it's it's all over college football. I don't have any
idea how you can bring in, you know, forty new
players almost every single year and have any sort of
(15:40):
continuity and that feeling that you're playing for the guy
next to you. You don't even know who the guy
next to you is. So it's the state of college football.
I'm not sure how to fix it. I like the
fact that players are being able to make some money.
But some some of the things that are going on
right now in terms of, you know, the amount of
money in the NIL and players and up and leaving
(16:02):
and doing all that, I just think it's bad for
a game.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Awesome answer now.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Lastly, forty nine Ers Vox forty nine Ers played by
play voice Greg Papa joins next segment. He returns to
the microphone for the forty nine ers in a couple
of games after missing most of the season.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
While I hear you my dogter wait fan of Greg, you.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Can tell I thought that was the Packers secondary. I
thought maybe you were watching film of the pack Go ahead, Okay,
But with Greg missed most of the season while battling Leukemiam,
I mean you talk about glorifying the good. He's elite
calling games and the better part of the last year
must have just been so excruciating for him.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
That's coming up next. I thought you'd like.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
To know, Oh man, he you know what. Greg and
I have stayed in touch quick sidebar. He is such
a quality human. When I retired from the NFL, I
was doing games for We were doing a lot of
West Coast Games, TV Games and Greig. I got paired
up with Greg as my playback play guy when I
(17:08):
was doing the color analyst role. And you talk about
a you know, a versatile broadcaster, a guy that you
can put in any setting. He's called Major League Baseball,
he's called the NBA, he's obviously called the NFL, but
just even a better human than he is broadcaster. So
I'm so so happy, and I think I think we're
(17:31):
blessed that he's able to come back, and he has
battled his way back. I got a lot of love
for Greg, and please share that with him when he
comes on.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Sure, well, you're fantastic man. And I didn't get into
the weeds about you know how you take care of
your assistant coaches, and I've known about that for quite
some time because it just didn't need to be shared,
But you know what I'm talking about. God bless you,
my brother, for everything you do for that staff and
for all the work you've given to the Mile High
market for as long as you have talk to you soon, all.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
Right, appreciate that, Pa, God bless you too.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
So yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Dave Logan play by play voice for the Denver Broncos
glorifying the good that was the Steves Appliances Marathon segment.
Steves Appliances dot Com, do pick us some appliances and
say hello to Sarah and Brian there in Mounds View.
Steves Appliances dot Com. Greg Papa, play by play voice
for the San Francisco forty nine Ers, Back on the mic,
back on the block, and back on nine to noon.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Neck.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
That took a little while to get to you, but
we just wanted to let you know what we think
of you and all the prayers Nordo and I have
had for you. Greg Papa is a mentor of mine
and one of the very best play by play guys
in the history of the NFL. Calls the heck of
a basketball game too. He's done baseball. You just heard
what Dave Logan, the vox for the Broncos, had to
(18:46):
say about Greg now. Greg has not been able to
call the first fourteen to forty nine Ers games this
season due to a battle with leukemia.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
But he's back. Welcome back, He's back, and we'll be.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Back on the microphone for the final two games against
the Bears in Seattle. Greg wow Man, Welcome back brother.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
How you doing?
Speaker 4 (19:06):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (19:07):
Wow. Yeah, you're gonna make me cry right from the start.
I got a note from Epstein's mother that allowed me
to come back there. How many people out there are
even old enough to remember the great Vinnie Bob a Reno,
John Travolta horse shack in the back. That would be
Paul Allen at the back of the class. Ooh ooh ooh, bhoa.
My name is the Kata. Yeah, it's been a it's
(19:29):
been a whirlwind. July sixteenth, I was diagnosed a cutelymphoblastic
leukemia b CEL Philadelphia negative. And it's heavy. It's took
a long time. But in two months to the day,
from July sixteenth to September the sixteenth, and I do
what you do. I do the football games on the weekends,
but I do a daily talk show. And you come
(19:49):
on a lot and you're you're the best of the
best guests we've had. You got bring so much fun
in the Bay Area, remember Shoe as well. And so
two months to that day, September sixteenth, I went back
on my radio show. But I was a boy in
a bubble. I couldn't leave my home and my white
blood cell numbers and other blood work labs were so bad,
I couldn't interact with people. So but I healed up
(20:12):
and I got better thanks to the people that you
see usf here in the Bay Area, the greatest team
we have and the Niners may just in fact, when
I come back, when a couple of games and maybe
host the Super Bowl, we'll see a lot of football
yet to go. And they got to overcome their injuries
on defense. And then it was exactly five months to
that dage from July sixteenth to this past Tuesday with
(20:35):
my heematologist, and they went through it all and I
need a bone marrow transplant. I'm not I'm not into
victory formation. I'm not kneeling out yet. There's a lot
of work to do. But I guess were at halftime
and the band can come out and play and I
can go back and do what I love, and that
is called football. I'm in remission. I'm RD negative. I've
(20:58):
been since late August, and a lot of my blood
work is in the green now, so you know, my
white blood cells, all the all the great markers they
look at. So I can interact with people, and I'm
physically strong enough and mentally strong enough. You know how
I prepare and how you prepare for games. It's not
just showing up on Sunday at one twenty five and
(21:20):
let's go in your case twelve twenty five. You got
to prepare and I think I can do that. I
think I have the energy to do that, and then physically,
I think I have the the stamina and the ability
to execute a call. You know, that's really what it
comes down to, where you know you've got to stand
up and make a game winning field goal, and where
(21:42):
there's a will, there's a win call. I love that call.
And Mike jo Rico shut at you out on Sunday
Night football. So you are the best, my friend, and
the love of support of everybody. I've talked to people
I haven't connected within forty years, going back to my
Syracuse days. But really we have a we have an
NFL league wide. All the play by play announcers on
(22:04):
radio have a text chain and they reach out and
you and I kind of do it on the side,
because we're more than just NFL play by play announcer
brother and we're we're more than that. We're tight and
you've reached out to me from the very beginning Norty's
reached out to me. Or is it Nordell Nordy nor No?
I always I think it's I think it's the chemo
(22:26):
brain fog because.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
I love you.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
I love nord Nordy, whatever it is. And uh, and
we're coming back and it's time to come back. I've
just been activated. My practice window is activated. So unlike
Brandon Iyuk, who I think is literally on fire, I
don't know where the hell that guy's gone. And I
pray for him, honestly. I I he's got some issues
giving away a lot of money. You know. That's why
(22:51):
I'm coming back to do what I love. And I
think Brandon loves to play football, so I don't I
don't understand it. But I'm gonna come back and practice
this week and get my call and then we're not
going down to Caleb Williams and the Bears. And then
we got that game with Seattle. So here's the scenario.
Niner fans are rooting amazingly for Seattle all those years
(23:12):
with Harbaugh and Pete Carroll and that rivalry, which to
find the Tens, we need Seattle to beat the Rams tonight.
If that happens, and the Niners went out beat Indianapolis
on Monday at Old Man Rivers beat the Bears, and
then the big one will be the battle with Seattle,
last game of the year. If that all happens, the
Niners not only win the NFC West Ball, they win
(23:33):
the NFC to the number one seed. They're off wild
card weekend, they may Divisional weekend, get a certain linebacker
back named All Pro Fred Fred Warner. If not that week,
then the next week in the championship game. So if
it all goes the way it's supposed to, and my
story has been a bit of a fairy tale story here,
the Niners win two playoff games at home, then they
(23:56):
would host the Super Bowl Super Bowl sixty years here
in the Bay Area at Levi's. And I've had that
date circled from the start to come back. And I
think I'm gonna be able to come back a little
early that February the eighth. But I'm coming back, said
on December the twenty eighth. So like Michael once said,
we're number forty five, I'm back. I'm back.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Okay, everything you just said, the G, the G, the
G is.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Was that great? Man?
Speaker 5 (24:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:28):
I mean I started to tear up a little bit man,
when when you talked about that play by play texturing
that we had. I mentioned it with Dave Logan last segment.
You know, when it's six and eight radio, you craft
segments called glorifying the good and you talk about other
teams for a segment a week, And we were talking
about you a little bit man, And you know that
that west Urhm and Bradsham starting that.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Group text that we have.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
It's it's you know, it's fantastic and and you know
this news of you returning yesterday, it just blew up
with all of us. And I loved it, and you
know it. I know you mentioned it that you know,
you and I and and Nordo and you, we've we've
texted a fair amount with you during this battle, man,
because we think about you a lot and we care
about you. I'm a limb on the Greg Papa tree.
(25:12):
So it was very difficult for you not being able
to work the games while dealing with the leukemia battle.
When the season started in September. What was was that
the low point during this fight.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
No, actually the first preseason game, actually, Minia and like
you and you knew simulcasts you know, the preseason TV
and radio and you're broadcast are the best I watched.
I watch a lot of football, as you know, but
this year I've watched every single game because I got
nothing else to damn do. I'm the boy in a bubble,
(25:49):
and when when your head coach comes on for those segments,
it is incredible. Kevin O'Connell and call the plays and
the inside. I texted you, I mean obviously did a
little TV before he went into coaching, but it's amazing
what he does and what a personality, what a likable guy.
You know, Kyle's got that mind, but Kyle doesn't he
doesn't really kind of open up that much and be soft. Anyway,
(26:13):
the very first preseason game was hard, and we played
Denver and I'm on TV that time, and it was
just it was difficult to even watch and comprehend. I
to watch it back a few times, even though what
I was looking for, So there were there were there
were times when it was hard. I mean, honestly, for
a long stretch, I didn't care about doing the games.
(26:35):
I was just trying to stay alive. And but then
when the games came on and everybody's got foma to
some degree, but mine was different because it was life threatening.
And I remember when Betty Pinero hit a game winning
field goal to beat the Arizona Cardinals and weak free.
It was a home game, and I was happy that
(26:56):
he made the field goal and the Niners won the game.
But I I remember right when he hit it, I
went out in my hammock in my backyard and it
was still verst the summer here and just laid in
the hammock and cried for about ten minutes that there
was a great call. I mean, the people that have
They've had five different people filling in for me, and
it was just, you know how much you're missing out
(27:17):
on and what we love to do and all of that.
So it was just and honestly, you know, Ted Robinson
the former voice of the forty nine ers, and he's
done everything and you know, wimbled in on NBC for years,
and he actually was the voice of the Niners before me,
so that got a little awkward. But he reached out
(27:37):
to me that very first preseason game and just said,
I'm thinking to you today because it's I know, it's
hard not to be where you should be and it's
out of nowhere and we developed a real bond. I've
known him for years and then obviously when I took
this job, it kind of got crazy. This business is
like that. But when things like this happened, will reach
(28:00):
out to you, like you know. I did the Raiders
games for twenty one years and that's how I got
to Dave Logan and I know each other. We did
ESPN College football together on Saturday nights before either one
of us did. He does the Broncos and I do
the Raiders, so we had quite the rivalry there, but
but never was never liked that between the two of us,
because we love each other. But my ending with the
Raiders was not good. As you know, I was so
(28:23):
close with l Davis and his son, Mark and I
had a tough ending. But anyway, when I was diagnosed,
Mark was one of the first people to reach out
to me and offered me to come to Las Vegas
and Lighthol's torch whenever I'm able, and he's reached out
to me many times, three or four times. One time
he was walking to Sunday Monday night Raider home game
(28:46):
in the regular season and he texted me and said
he was thinking to me so it's been hard, but
I'm fine now and I'm strong. I'm able to do
this again. I wouldn't do it if I didn't think
I could. So I'm looking forward to getting back. And
you know, I'm from Buffalo, so that the dream always
was February of the eighth and the home of the
(29:09):
Niners in Santa Clair. Of the Buffalo Bills get back
to the Super Bowl this time. So that'll be hard
because they've they've been there four straight years and lost
them all. But if they if it is a Bills
Niners Super Bowl, that would be quite amazing way way
to finish this off.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
What So, what do you think of your Niners? Man
a ten and four operation? They they they've done good
work despite losing some big time players for the season.
Speaker 5 (29:33):
Right, Yeah, they're I mean, they're they're they're offensively, Paul,
and I'm watching the l twenty two back right now
because I'm gonna break down some of these plays on
my radio show. They're offensively. You know, you don't have
i ut that big X wide receiver. But Jawan Jennings
is doing great. They got to get Ricky Piersoll to
stay healthy on the field. He means so much as
(29:54):
a split end that Z move guy, but he's got
knee problem. I'm not sure he's going to be able
to go here in this game in Indy anyway, offensively
with Brock and Brock's completely back, and you've got Trent Williams,
you've got George Kittle, and then you have the most
brilliant offensive backfield. I think people understand who Christian McCaffrey is,
(30:16):
but I don't think they understand that Kyle Yuschek is
and what he's able to do. You guys have CJ
there in Minnesota and files just different the way he
handles angles. I mean he went to Harvard. So you've
got a Harvard full back leading a stand for half back,
and they're so physically gifted, but then they're mentally just
then they don't. I mean, they play football, they're tough,
(30:37):
but they do with angles and they don't have to
take you on full body. They take you on half
body or quarter body and it's able to work. And
then they go to the next guy. So the offense
is going to score. You know, we call it thirty
for party here, and since Brock has been back, this
team is averaging thirty one points a game. When Matt
Jones was the quarterback and Mack was incredible. They went
(30:59):
five and three him as quarterback, they averaged twenty two points. Again,
they have the number one passing team in the NFL,
number one in yards with Mac Jones a quarterback the
backup quarterback incredible and it was twenty two a game,
and now with Brockets thirty one. So I think the
offense will score against even elite defenses when it's time.
It's just the defense is so young. They really don't
(31:24):
have a clue what they're doing. They're getting coached up
by the very best, with Robert Sala and all the
position coaches. Causeric the line coach, and Johnny Holland, who
had his own canceled cancer battle in twenty nineteen, the
linebacker coach, and Daniel Bullocks. But they're young and they
just get attacked in a lot of ways. They've had
(31:44):
to play a lot of zone coverage, whether it's a
Cover of three or a Cover four, and there's you
sit in those zones over and over again. There's holes
there and teams know how to beat you. And the
Niners played basically a Cover three zone defense all all
the way to the Super Bowl, Super Bowl fifty four
in Miami against Kansas City, and we were up twenty
(32:05):
to ten with seven minutes and thirteen seconds to play,
and the Chiefs are on this play called two three
chip Jet Wasp, and the concept is to specifically attack
a cover three where there's going to be just a
conflict between a couple of defenders and they just can't
trade it off in time, and Tyreek Hill get the
whole shot and then it was on you know, mahomes hit.
(32:27):
You know, they all of a sudden, they had ten
points and they wound up at thirty one in like
seven minutes. How'd that happen? So when we had veteran players,
that defense was so locked in they were tight, and
they still gave it up. Our guys just said, they're
not that tight. There's gaping holes in the every level.
You know, the linebackers, you know, fitting with the dbs,
(32:52):
the gv's fitting with themselves, whether it's a safety coming
over for a corner, the lines getting manhandled, and watch
and Tony Pollard just hit the outside soon over and
over again last week. And so this offense is certainly
super Bowl caliber winning offense but the defense, I don't know.
It's you go up against the eleite offenses, and certainly
(33:15):
I'm glad the Lions, you know, may be eliminated here
you don't have to deal with that, but there's gonna
be some teams you're gonna have to deal with come
playoff time. If not the certainly the Super Bowl. So
I don't I don't know if this defense can hold up.
So if the Niners do make it all the way
to to Santa Clair, their home stadium for the Super Bowl, Paul,
they're gonna have to win shootouts.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Did too here for Greg Popham, did did you listen
to the games on KMBR when you weren't able to
call them?
Speaker 5 (33:43):
I did not. I that was too much.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
Yeah, I agree, I couldn't.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
Do it, and I it wasn't. There was one day
I was actually coming back from getting chemottherapy right at
the time a Monday night game was going to kick off,
so it kind of worked that I could do it,
but I chose just to watch the game as I
was driving back. What I've been doing is watching so
much football, honestly, and I you know, I do all
(34:09):
the time. But I watched the league from you know,
whether it's the europe Games and they kick off at
six thirty in the morning my time, or you know
the traditional games that kick off at noon York time
there in the central time zoner ten my time. I
watched everything. I got screens. I'm watching every single game,
and I got the Niner game on. But then I
(34:29):
you know, I got to go back and watch it
two or three times or more throughout the week. So
it wasn't like I was avoiding it. And I learned
a lot from my partner, Tim Ryan. And actually, like
two minutes before you called me, we were on the
phone and going over to play with the Niners gave
up a touchdown to Gunner Helm against Tennessee, Like what
the hell happened on that play? We were going through it.
(34:51):
So but no, I didn't. I didn't actually listen to
any of the broadcast. I think when I come back
for the Bears game, I will get copies of the
last Bupple just so I know what Tim's been saying
and I know what he's thinking. But I'll I'll get
you immersed into a game where I can hear a
lot of his thoughts. I think I'll do that and
(35:13):
did I avoid I don't know. I remember when I
was when I lost the Raider job in twenty eighteen,
I made the mistake of listening to the first preseason
game and it was Brett Muschburger, and one of the
greatest broadcasters of all time replaced me on the Raider broadcast,
and so I listened like for probably the first quoter
of that first preseason game. And it was really depressing
(35:36):
just not to be as Ted Robinson told me, not
to be where I should be, and that is doing
the game. So did I avoid it? You know, maybe
a little bit, but I had other things that I
was doing. But to answer your question the typical Papa
long winded fashion, I did not listen to the games.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
Well, I can't wait to hear your calls December twenty
eighth at the home of the Super Bowl, Levi Stadium.
You know I'm going to be listening to you describe
a successful shallow cross off a wham block while selling
the wheel opposite the man Beater and Bang eight.

Speaker 5 (36:10):

I love you very much, ma'am, and I know I'm
speaking for Nordo too. We're elated for you first and
foremost for you and your family. Secondly that you're back

all of this, and I can't wait till we're actually
all able to get back together and hug each other.

a rube and a fan, I've been loving Greg Papa's
work since he was with the Raiders the long time
there now with the Niners.

Speaker 6 (40:26):
Of the better Thursday night football games really in the
history of NFL Thursday night games. When it comes to
a couple eleven win teams, I mean usually it's like, okay,
it's Browns and Browns and Jets and Al Michaels backstage
of his career. And I got a which streaming services
are going to be on? So I dial up Prime
and the first time I loaded, it's a little blurry.
(40:47):
So then I got to jump out, jump back in. Hey,
there we go, and it's the Jets and Browns. No,
it's the Rams and Seahawks. And they're both eleven and three.
It is in Seattle. The Rams beat the beat the Seahawks.
It's so far early in the year. Sam Darnold throws
four picks. He said, if he was still grinding, still
driving towards the end of that game, then with the
chance to get the W but just fell short. And
(41:10):
then now tonight the Seahawks are one and a half
point favorites against said Rams. So not only NFC Western implications,
but NFC Top seed implications based on how tonight goes.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
And that'll be on KFA and the Plus.

Brings Luke Musgrave in motion. Now he returns to the
right side. Pressure on Love.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Love throws the ball middle of the field, the ball
behind a.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Defender to intercepted, intercepted by Riley Moss.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Moss gets up and he's loose. Are they gonna say
he's down?
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Riley Moss with his first interception this season.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Packers look like they jump early deep drop by Love.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
He climbs the pocket hit as he throws that ball
is incomplete. Alex Singleton celebrates with two hands above his
head before the ball even hit the ground. And a
lot of people didn't think today would turn out this
way around the country. Some are going to be disappointed,
but I guess that's.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Just too bad.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
The Broncos are going to get out of here beating
the Packers thirty four to twenty six.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Amen.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
That is the voice of fuck Dave Logan being played
by play voice for the Denver Broncos. And this is
glorifying the good and what a run for the Broncos,
and what a run of their play by play voice, Dave,
who has done that job for thirty years and working
with the Broncos Radio network for more than that. But
thirty years as a play by play voice, earning a
(01:10):
spot in the CU Hall of Fame. As a former
Colorado Buffalo player, It's been almost a decade in the
NFL as a receiver for the Cleveland Browns, and Dave
also has won a state record thirteen state titles as
a high school football coach with Arvada West, Chatfield, Mullen,
and most recently Cherry Creek. My ma'am, Dave Logan, great
(01:32):
chatting with you and for our glorifying the good segment.
How's the head called? A few days in front of
the Sunday game against Jacksonville.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Well, it's you know what, Pight's it's better. I think
I think I'm improving, and I think I would be
listed as probable for Sunday.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Indeed, Yeah, first, I'm gonna yeah, it's I'm not even
gonna tell that.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I'm not going to jack around with the practice report
and make you probable. Your your fall and you'll be
full tomorrow Saturday and into it Sunday. With this team
that's won twelve in a row, twelve in a row
for the Broncos, and all but two of them have
come right down to the wire. How did these guys
Dave keep winning so many close games and against good
teams like Green Bay, Kansas City, Houston and Billy.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Yeah, you know what, Paul, it's I mean, normally we
don't you know, you and I have done this for
a while. We don't see streaks like this. I mean,
ever so often we'll see a team win eleven straight.
But they've done it. They've done it in a myriad
of ways. I mean, the winner of the Giants was
so improbable that I can't even begin that. It had
(02:45):
to be in the category above improbable, and I'm not
even sure what the title of that particular category is.
But they've played better I think the last three or
four games, especially in the offensive side of the ball.
And I think Knicks was, I mean, maybe his best
game against the Packers. He had four touchdown passes, didn't
(03:06):
throw an interception. He's twenty three and nine on the season.
He he and I've said this several weeks ago. I
said he's got a little bit of a backyard magic
to his game. I think that can be really good.
I think at times you can drive coaches a little
crazy because you you don't want to you don't want
(03:28):
to suppress that because that's kind of who he is,
and he makes some unbelievable plays, but you also have
to understand that with that quality, they'll be a throw
maybe two in a game where you're as soon as
he lets it go, you're gonna hold your head and say, no,
what oh, this could be real, real, real trouble. But
(03:49):
I mean, it's a young team, and I think the
beauty of this team right now is that they they
they don't really know what they don't know, and so
they're they're not fearful. You know, they feel like their
defense is a very good defense. And I would agree,
and I think they're doing everything they can to secure
that number one seed in the AFC. And if they do,
(04:12):
then they get a week off and they've got to
find a way to win two games to go to
the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Apologies, eleven in a row in search of twelve this
weekend against Jacksonville, and that's day. Dave Logan played by
play voice for the Denver Broncos fourth quarter bon Knicks
fourth quarter bon Knicks second year quarterback.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
He has the clutch gene, doesn't.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
He No question, I mean, absolutely no question. He is.
He is fearless. You know, he's got the mindset, although
I don't know that he would admit this, that there's
not a single throw that I can't make on the field.
(04:52):
And so he made a couple of throws against the
Packers last weekend where I mean he breaks contain, he
likes to get out to his right, maybe a little
bit too much, and then he stopped and came all
the way back to his left, running to his left
as the right handed quarterback, and then lowered, lowered that
arm slot and flipped it across his body back toward
(05:15):
the middle of the field. Both both were completed passes. Now,
I think you know, if even a casual fan looked
at that, they would say, man, oh man, I don't
know if you can duplicate that, if if you can
consistently make that throw. But he's made it many many
more times than not. And I you know, I just
(05:36):
think he has immense confidence right now. And how he's playing,
and how the offense is playing.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
What what makes the defense so good? Dave?
Speaker 4 (05:47):
You know what Paul I would say this, I think,
I mean, you look at their edge pass rushers, and
you know, Benito's an elite guy. There's no there's no
question about that. Cooper is a mixture of athletic ability
and power, so his his edge pass rushing is a
little bit different. But I think one of the things
that really helps those guys and the guys that played
(06:10):
behind them, the Jonah Ellis is the Dendre Killman's, I think,
is the interior ability to rush the passer. You know,
you've got Zach Allen, You've got DJ Jones, You've got
John Franklin Myers, You've got Malcolm Roach. Those those four
guys rotate. Allan, of course is having just a great year,
(06:31):
but they they they're a little more athletic inside that
I think they have been, and I think that has
shown in terms of the interior ability to crush a
pocket and make that quarterback sort of step up and
start to pinball.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Glorifying the good the Denver Broncos Victoria's eleven consecutive times,
they're a three decade three play by play voice Dave
Logan is on the nine to noon show how Ow
of general manager George Payton, who was here for many
years and coach Sean Payton helped the cause of winning
eleven in a row and potentially getting a one seed
in the AFC.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Yeah, I think it's a remarkable story. I think I mean,
to me, at least clearly, this year is a year
at least a year early. I don't know that anybody,
maybe even George and Seawan, maybe Sean would deny that,
but I'm not sure they saw this sort of ascension coming.
But they've been very good at identifying, i think, people
(07:30):
to bring into the building that love football. We talked
with two or three former players of Sean when he
came to Denver, Guys that has been a long time
with him, Guys that had actually not only played for him,
but coach for him, and they all had had various
things in describing Sean's demeanor and how he would go
(07:51):
about sort of putting the program together. But they all said,
he's going to find guys that love football, and if
you don't love football, he's going to find a way
to run you out of the building. And so I
think the overall culture has been dramatically altered in Sean's
two years and thirteen games. I mean, he's found guys
(08:16):
that are selfless, He's found guys that are team oriented.
In a day and time that you know you're gonna
have a lot of guys that maybe you're not not
that way that they want to point to themselves. We
don't have too many of those in Denver, and if
there are some, they have been forced into being very
quiet about it. So I think George and Sean have
(08:38):
done just a terrific job. But putting this roster together,
they hit on Drake Greenlaw in the offseason. They definitely
hit on Talanoa Hufunga, two free agents that had a
history of some injuries. They hit on both of them
from San Francisco. So they've done an excellent job, no
question about that.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
The thirteen high school football state titles at four different schools,
most recently Cherry Creek Cherry Creek High School. You know
it's the play by play guys in the NFL, all
thirty two of us. We have this really cool text
group tech string where all all of us talk to
each other, you know, in group fashion. West Urham with
(09:20):
the Atlanta Falcons, Bradsham with the Dallas Cowboys, the Genesis
was with them a couple of years ago.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I think it's really really cool when cool things happen.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
Cool things happen, or people go through stuff, and we
talk about booths stuff like that. But recently a couple
of Saturdays ago started blowing up, like with everybody wishing
Dave Logan good luck into a I believe it was
five a Colorado high school state title game for Cherry
Creek and you guys want it. So that's the state
record thirteen for you. What have been some keys to
(09:53):
winning all those Colorado high school football titles, Dave, Well, gosh, I.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Have been blessed to for my entire career, you know,
be allowed the time necessary to coach during the season,
during the absolute busiest time obviously. I mean I call
the Broncos games, also do an afternoon talk show, and
during the high school season, the radio station lets me
(10:23):
off the show so I can coach coach those kids.
So that would be one of the things that has
been a key. I've had probably four or five of
my core coaches that have been with me, you know,
twenty five years, and so we understand, we understand the process,
what's needed, what is necessary in order to not necessarily
(10:46):
ensure that you're going to win, but to put your
kids in the absolute best position to win. We have
an eight week program in the summer, starting the first
Monday every June. I mean, my golf game sucks, for sure,
But because we're out there three days a week, four
days a week actually in the mornings from nine till
about one one o'clock, lifting and running and putting our
(11:09):
offense and defense in And I've got dedicated I've got
dedicated coaches that work for about six cents an hour.
So in high school football's that's just the way it is.
I have such respect for high school coaches because there's
no financial game for these guys. They're in it for
the love of ball and for the love of kids
(11:29):
and trying to mentor some of these kids and teach
them a few life lessons and oh, by the way,
teach them a little bit about the great game that
we all love and hopefully win some games in the process.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
What and about coaching high school football and the young adults,
the kids, you know, you get them, as does some
of them as freshmen at age fourteen and.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Then not now we have you know, we have nil and.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
College football, and you know, the focus and the eyes
will be on potentially a different and prized than than
maybe even five, six, seven, eight years ago. So when
it comes to coaching high school football, what do you
genuinely appreciate about it? And how much longer do you
think you're.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Going to do it?
Speaker 4 (12:11):
Dave, Well, you know what, I appreciate the fact that
the overwhelming majority of kids want to be coached, they
want to work, they want they want discipline, they want
to be corrected. That there are some that you know,
(12:34):
probably don't fit into that metric, But I think there's
still there's still a significant percentage of kids that that
want to be taught football and want to be as
I said, coached and coached hard. I mean, we coach them,
We coach them hard. We you know, we'll put our
arm around him, tell them we love them as well.
But I mean we're we're trying to get them better
(12:55):
and trying to teach them. For guys that want to
go on and play in college, you know, we know,
we know what that step is going to be like,
we know what that process is going to be like,
and how best to get them get them prepared. In
terms of you know, how much longer I would do it, Paul,
I think as long as I stay healthy and feel good.
(13:16):
I you know, I've had opportunities to coach in college
and I've had opportunities to coach in the NFL. You know,
Coach and offered me the receiver's job years ago, and
it just wasn't the right time, and I would have
had to have given up a lot of other things,
including you know, being the play by play voice of
(13:36):
the Broncos. So I'm happy coaching in high school. Get
I get, you know, the competitive thing for me gets
gets satisfied with that. I still get really fired up
for these kids when we go into a game. So
I would just say, you know, as long as I
feel good and the message is still being received and
I feel like I can benefit kids in that way,
(14:00):
I'll continue doing it.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
As last one here, thank you. Dave Logan as a
prideful Boulder grad. What what do you think of the
state of Colorado football with Dion?
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Yeah? That uh, that's a that's an interesting thought. You know,
I give I give coach Prime a lot of credit
for when he came in. You know, stylistically, we would
we would, you know, we would be totally different. But
but he brought a lot of attention to that program
(14:33):
which had been down for a long time. I took
exception to some of the narratives out there nationally that
that he put CEU on the map and see you
and never have I mean, see who's had some see
who's had some great great players back in the nineties,
uh national championship. I mean even back when I played
(14:56):
in the mid seventies. I mean we had you know,
we had my senior class, we had twelve guys rafted
of six in the first first three rounds. So you know,
the program has had its day, but it'd been down
when when Dion came. So I give him credit for,
you know, kind of resurrecting the overall view of the
(15:17):
University of Colorado, but I you know, I'm anxious to
see kind of how he goes about sustaining or trying
to trying to sustain any sort of success with bringing
in as many new players. And it's not just Colorado,
it's it's all over college football. I don't have any
idea how you can bring in, you know, forty new
players almost every single year and have any sort of
(15:40):
continuity and that feeling that you're playing for the guy
next to you. You don't even know who the guy
next to you is. So it's the state of college football.
I'm not sure how to fix it. I like the
fact that players are being able to make some money.
But some some of the things that are going on
right now in terms of, you know, the amount of
money in the NIL and players and up and leaving
(16:02):
and doing all that, I just think it's bad for
a game.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Awesome answer now.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Lastly, forty nine Ers Vox forty nine Ers played by
play voice Greg Papa joins next segment. He returns to
the microphone for the forty nine ers in a couple
of games after missing most of the season.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
While I hear you my dogter wait fan of Greg, you.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Can tell I thought that was the Packers secondary. I
thought maybe you were watching film of the pack Go ahead, Okay,
But with Greg missed most of the season while battling Leukemiam,
I mean you talk about glorifying the good. He's elite
calling games and the better part of the last year
must have just been so excruciating for him.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
That's coming up next. I thought you'd like.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
To know, Oh man, he you know what. Greg and
I have stayed in touch quick sidebar. He is such
a quality human. When I retired from the NFL, I
was doing games for We were doing a lot of
West Coast Games, TV Games and Greig. I got paired
up with Greg as my playback play guy when I
(17:08):
was doing the color analyst role. And you talk about
a you know, a versatile broadcaster, a guy that you
can put in any setting. He's called Major League Baseball,
he's called the NBA, he's obviously called the NFL, but
just even a better human than he is broadcaster. So
I'm so so happy, and I think I think we're
(17:31):
blessed that he's able to come back, and he has
battled his way back. I got a lot of love
for Greg, and please share that with him when he
comes on.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Sure, well, you're fantastic man. And I didn't get into
the weeds about you know how you take care of
your assistant coaches, and I've known about that for quite
some time because it just didn't need to be shared,
But you know what I'm talking about. God bless you,
my brother, for everything you do for that staff and
for all the work you've given to the Mile High
market for as long as you have talk to you soon, all.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
Right, appreciate that, Pa, God bless you too.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
So yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Dave Logan play by play voice for the Denver Broncos
glorifying the good that was the Steves Appliances Marathon segment.
Steves Appliances dot Com, do pick us some appliances and
say hello to Sarah and Brian there in Mounds View.
Steves Appliances dot Com. Greg Papa, play by play voice
for the San Francisco forty nine Ers, Back on the mic,
back on the block, and back on nine to noon.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Neck.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
That took a little while to get to you, but
we just wanted to let you know what we think
of you and all the prayers Nordo and I have
had for you. Greg Papa is a mentor of mine
and one of the very best play by play guys
in the history of the NFL. Calls the heck of
a basketball game too. He's done baseball. You just heard
what Dave Logan, the vox for the Broncos, had to
(18:46):
say about Greg now. Greg has not been able to
call the first fourteen to forty nine Ers games this
season due to a battle with leukemia.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
But he's back. Welcome back, He's back, and we'll be.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Back on the microphone for the final two games against
the Bears in Seattle. Greg wow Man, Welcome back brother.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
How you doing?
Speaker 4 (19:06):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (19:07):
Wow. Yeah, you're gonna make me cry right from the start.
I got a note from Epstein's mother that allowed me
to come back there. How many people out there are
even old enough to remember the great Vinnie Bob a Reno,
John Travolta horse shack in the back. That would be
Paul Allen at the back of the class. Ooh ooh ooh, bhoa.
My name is the Kata. Yeah, it's been a it's
(19:29):
been a whirlwind. July sixteenth, I was diagnosed a cutelymphoblastic
leukemia b CEL Philadelphia negative. And it's heavy. It's took
a long time. But in two months to the day,
from July sixteenth to September the sixteenth, and I do
what you do. I do the football games on the weekends,
but I do a daily talk show. And you come
(19:49):
on a lot and you're you're the best of the
best guests we've had. You got bring so much fun
in the Bay Area, remember Shoe as well. And so
two months to that day, September sixteenth, I went back
on my radio show. But I was a boy in
a bubble. I couldn't leave my home and my white
blood cell numbers and other blood work labs were so bad,
I couldn't interact with people. So but I healed up
(20:12):
and I got better thanks to the people that you
see usf here in the Bay Area, the greatest team
we have and the Niners may just in fact, when
I come back, when a couple of games and maybe
host the Super Bowl, we'll see a lot of football
yet to go. And they got to overcome their injuries
on defense. And then it was exactly five months to
that dage from July sixteenth to this past Tuesday with
(20:35):
my heematologist, and they went through it all and I
need a bone marrow transplant. I'm not I'm not into
victory formation. I'm not kneeling out yet. There's a lot
of work to do. But I guess were at halftime
and the band can come out and play and I
can go back and do what I love, and that
is called football. I'm in remission. I'm RD negative. I've
(20:58):
been since late August, and a lot of my blood
work is in the green now, so you know, my
white blood cells, all the all the great markers they
look at. So I can interact with people, and I'm
physically strong enough and mentally strong enough. You know how
I prepare and how you prepare for games. It's not
just showing up on Sunday at one twenty five and
(21:20):
let's go in your case twelve twenty five. You got
to prepare and I think I can do that. I
think I have the energy to do that, and then physically,
I think I have the the stamina and the ability
to execute a call. You know, that's really what it
comes down to, where you know you've got to stand
up and make a game winning field goal, and where
(21:42):
there's a will, there's a win call. I love that call.
And Mike jo Rico shut at you out on Sunday
Night football. So you are the best, my friend, and
the love of support of everybody. I've talked to people
I haven't connected within forty years, going back to my
Syracuse days. But really we have a we have an
NFL league wide. All the play by play announcers on
(22:04):
radio have a text chain and they reach out and
you and I kind of do it on the side,
because we're more than just NFL play by play announcer
brother and we're we're more than that. We're tight and
you've reached out to me from the very beginning Norty's
reached out to me. Or is it Nordell Nordy nor No?
I always I think it's I think it's the chemo
(22:26):
brain fog because.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
I love you.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
I love nord Nordy, whatever it is. And uh, and
we're coming back and it's time to come back. I've
just been activated. My practice window is activated. So unlike
Brandon Iyuk, who I think is literally on fire, I
don't know where the hell that guy's gone. And I
pray for him, honestly. I I he's got some issues
giving away a lot of money. You know. That's why
(22:51):
I'm coming back to do what I love. And I
think Brandon loves to play football, so I don't I
don't understand it. But I'm gonna come back and practice
this week and get my call and then we're not
going down to Caleb Williams and the Bears. And then
we got that game with Seattle. So here's the scenario.
Niner fans are rooting amazingly for Seattle all those years
(23:12):
with Harbaugh and Pete Carroll and that rivalry, which to
find the Tens, we need Seattle to beat the Rams tonight.
If that happens, and the Niners went out beat Indianapolis
on Monday at Old Man Rivers beat the Bears, and
then the big one will be the battle with Seattle,
last game of the year. If that all happens, the
Niners not only win the NFC West Ball, they win
(23:33):
the NFC to the number one seed. They're off wild
card weekend, they may Divisional weekend, get a certain linebacker
back named All Pro Fred Fred Warner. If not that week,
then the next week in the championship game. So if
it all goes the way it's supposed to, and my
story has been a bit of a fairy tale story here,
the Niners win two playoff games at home, then they
(23:56):
would host the Super Bowl Super Bowl sixty years here
in the Bay Area at Levi's. And I've had that
date circled from the start to come back. And I
think I'm gonna be able to come back a little
early that February the eighth. But I'm coming back, said
on December the twenty eighth. So like Michael once said,
we're number forty five, I'm back. I'm back.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Okay, everything you just said, the G, the G, the
G is.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Was that great? Man?
Speaker 5 (24:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:28):
I mean I started to tear up a little bit man,
when when you talked about that play by play texturing
that we had. I mentioned it with Dave Logan last segment.
You know, when it's six and eight radio, you craft
segments called glorifying the good and you talk about other
teams for a segment a week, And we were talking
about you a little bit man, And you know that
that west Urhm and Bradsham starting that.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Group text that we have.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
It's it's you know, it's fantastic and and you know
this news of you returning yesterday, it just blew up
with all of us. And I loved it, and you
know it. I know you mentioned it that you know,
you and I and and Nordo and you, we've we've
texted a fair amount with you during this battle, man,
because we think about you a lot and we care
about you. I'm a limb on the Greg Papa tree.
(25:12):
So it was very difficult for you not being able
to work the games while dealing with the leukemia battle.
When the season started in September. What was was that
the low point during this fight.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
No, actually the first preseason game, actually, Minia and like
you and you knew simulcasts you know, the preseason TV
and radio and you're broadcast are the best I watched.
I watch a lot of football, as you know, but
this year I've watched every single game because I got
nothing else to damn do. I'm the boy in a bubble,
(25:49):
and when when your head coach comes on for those segments,
it is incredible. Kevin O'Connell and call the plays and
the inside. I texted you, I mean obviously did a
little TV before he went into coaching, but it's amazing
what he does and what a personality, what a likable guy.
You know, Kyle's got that mind, but Kyle doesn't he
doesn't really kind of open up that much and be soft. Anyway,
(26:13):
the very first preseason game was hard, and we played
Denver and I'm on TV that time, and it was
just it was difficult to even watch and comprehend. I
to watch it back a few times, even though what
I was looking for, So there were there were there
were times when it was hard. I mean, honestly, for
a long stretch, I didn't care about doing the games.
(26:35):
I was just trying to stay alive. And but then
when the games came on and everybody's got foma to
some degree, but mine was different because it was life threatening.
And I remember when Betty Pinero hit a game winning
field goal to beat the Arizona Cardinals and weak free.
It was a home game, and I was happy that
(26:56):
he made the field goal and the Niners won the game.
But I I remember right when he hit it, I
went out in my hammock in my backyard and it
was still verst the summer here and just laid in
the hammock and cried for about ten minutes that there
was a great call. I mean, the people that have
They've had five different people filling in for me, and
it was just, you know how much you're missing out
(27:17):
on and what we love to do and all of that.
So it was just and honestly, you know, Ted Robinson
the former voice of the forty nine ers, and he's
done everything and you know, wimbled in on NBC for years,
and he actually was the voice of the Niners before me,
so that got a little awkward. But he reached out
(27:37):
to me that very first preseason game and just said,
I'm thinking to you today because it's I know, it's
hard not to be where you should be and it's
out of nowhere and we developed a real bond. I've
known him for years and then obviously when I took
this job, it kind of got crazy. This business is
like that. But when things like this happened, will reach
(28:00):
out to you, like you know. I did the Raiders
games for twenty one years and that's how I got
to Dave Logan and I know each other. We did
ESPN College football together on Saturday nights before either one
of us did. He does the Broncos and I do
the Raiders, so we had quite the rivalry there, but
but never was never liked that between the two of us,
because we love each other. But my ending with the
Raiders was not good. As you know, I was so
(28:23):
close with l Davis and his son, Mark and I
had a tough ending. But anyway, when I was diagnosed,
Mark was one of the first people to reach out
to me and offered me to come to Las Vegas
and Lighthol's torch whenever I'm able, and he's reached out
to me many times, three or four times. One time
he was walking to Sunday Monday night Raider home game
(28:46):
in the regular season and he texted me and said
he was thinking to me so it's been hard, but
I'm fine now and I'm strong. I'm able to do
this again. I wouldn't do it if I didn't think
I could. So I'm looking forward to getting back. And
you know, I'm from Buffalo, so that the dream always
was February of the eighth and the home of the
(29:09):
Niners in Santa Clair. Of the Buffalo Bills get back
to the Super Bowl this time. So that'll be hard
because they've they've been there four straight years and lost
them all. But if they if it is a Bills
Niners Super Bowl, that would be quite amazing way way
to finish this off.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
What So, what do you think of your Niners? Man
a ten and four operation? They they they've done good
work despite losing some big time players for the season.
Speaker 5 (29:33):
Right, Yeah, they're I mean, they're they're they're offensively, Paul,
and I'm watching the l twenty two back right now
because I'm gonna break down some of these plays on
my radio show. They're offensively. You know, you don't have
i ut that big X wide receiver. But Jawan Jennings
is doing great. They got to get Ricky Piersoll to
stay healthy on the field. He means so much as
(29:54):
a split end that Z move guy, but he's got
knee problem. I'm not sure he's going to be able
to go here in this game in Indy anyway, offensively
with Brock and Brock's completely back, and you've got Trent Williams,
you've got George Kittle, and then you have the most
brilliant offensive backfield. I think people understand who Christian McCaffrey is,
(30:16):
but I don't think they understand that Kyle Yuschek is
and what he's able to do. You guys have CJ
there in Minnesota and files just different the way he
handles angles. I mean he went to Harvard. So you've
got a Harvard full back leading a stand for half back,
and they're so physically gifted, but then they're mentally just
then they don't. I mean, they play football, they're tough,
(30:37):
but they do with angles and they don't have to
take you on full body. They take you on half
body or quarter body and it's able to work. And
then they go to the next guy. So the offense
is going to score. You know, we call it thirty
for party here, and since Brock has been back, this
team is averaging thirty one points a game. When Matt
Jones was the quarterback and Mack was incredible. They went
(30:59):
five and three him as quarterback, they averaged twenty two points. Again,
they have the number one passing team in the NFL,
number one in yards with Mac Jones a quarterback the
backup quarterback incredible and it was twenty two a game,
and now with Brockets thirty one. So I think the
offense will score against even elite defenses when it's time.
It's just the defense is so young. They really don't
(31:24):
have a clue what they're doing. They're getting coached up
by the very best, with Robert Sala and all the
position coaches. Causeric the line coach, and Johnny Holland, who
had his own canceled cancer battle in twenty nineteen, the
linebacker coach, and Daniel Bullocks. But they're young and they
just get attacked in a lot of ways. They've had
(31:44):
to play a lot of zone coverage, whether it's a
Cover of three or a Cover four, and there's you
sit in those zones over and over again. There's holes
there and teams know how to beat you. And the
Niners played basically a Cover three zone defense all all
the way to the Super Bowl, Super Bowl fifty four
in Miami against Kansas City, and we were up twenty
(32:05):
to ten with seven minutes and thirteen seconds to play,
and the Chiefs are on this play called two three
chip Jet Wasp, and the concept is to specifically attack
a cover three where there's going to be just a
conflict between a couple of defenders and they just can't
trade it off in time, and Tyreek Hill get the
whole shot and then it was on you know, mahomes hit.
(32:27):
You know, they all of a sudden, they had ten
points and they wound up at thirty one in like
seven minutes. How'd that happen? So when we had veteran players,
that defense was so locked in they were tight, and
they still gave it up. Our guys just said, they're
not that tight. There's gaping holes in the every level.
You know, the linebackers, you know, fitting with the dbs,
(32:52):
the gv's fitting with themselves, whether it's a safety coming
over for a corner, the lines getting manhandled, and watch
and Tony Pollard just hit the outside soon over and
over again last week. And so this offense is certainly
super Bowl caliber winning offense but the defense, I don't know.
It's you go up against the eleite offenses, and certainly
(33:15):
I'm glad the Lions, you know, may be eliminated here
you don't have to deal with that, but there's gonna
be some teams you're gonna have to deal with come
playoff time. If not the certainly the Super Bowl. So
I don't I don't know if this defense can hold up.
So if the Niners do make it all the way
to to Santa Clair, their home stadium for the Super Bowl, Paul,
they're gonna have to win shootouts.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Did too here for Greg Popham, did did you listen
to the games on KMBR when you weren't able to
call them?
Speaker 5 (33:43):
I did not. I that was too much.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
Yeah, I agree, I couldn't.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
Do it, and I it wasn't. There was one day
I was actually coming back from getting chemottherapy right at
the time a Monday night game was going to kick off,
so it kind of worked that I could do it,
but I chose just to watch the game as I
was driving back. What I've been doing is watching so
much football, honestly, and I you know, I do all
(34:09):
the time. But I watched the league from you know,
whether it's the europe Games and they kick off at
six thirty in the morning my time, or you know
the traditional games that kick off at noon York time
there in the central time zoner ten my time. I
watched everything. I got screens. I'm watching every single game,
and I got the Niner game on. But then I
(34:29):
you know, I got to go back and watch it
two or three times or more throughout the week. So
it wasn't like I was avoiding it. And I learned
a lot from my partner, Tim Ryan. And actually, like
two minutes before you called me, we were on the
phone and going over to play with the Niners gave
up a touchdown to Gunner Helm against Tennessee, Like what
the hell happened on that play? We were going through it.
(34:51):
So but no, I didn't. I didn't actually listen to
any of the broadcast. I think when I come back
for the Bears game, I will get copies of the
last Bupple just so I know what Tim's been saying
and I know what he's thinking. But I'll I'll get
you immersed into a game where I can hear a
lot of his thoughts. I think I'll do that and
(35:13):
did I avoid I don't know. I remember when I
was when I lost the Raider job in twenty eighteen,
I made the mistake of listening to the first preseason
game and it was Brett Muschburger, and one of the
greatest broadcasters of all time replaced me on the Raider broadcast,
and so I listened like for probably the first quoter
of that first preseason game. And it was really depressing
(35:36):
just not to be as Ted Robinson told me, not
to be where I should be, and that is doing
the game. So did I avoid it? You know, maybe
a little bit, but I had other things that I
was doing. But to answer your question the typical Papa
long winded fashion, I did not listen to the games.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
Well, I can't wait to hear your calls December twenty
eighth at the home of the Super Bowl, Levi Stadium.
You know I'm going to be listening to you describe
a successful shallow cross off a wham block while selling
the wheel opposite the man Beater and Bang eight.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
I just can't wait.
Speaker 5 (36:10):
I love those bang eights.
Speaker 2 (36:12):
I love those man. I love you.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
You know I've told you that before, but in text,
I love you very much, ma'am, and I know I'm
speaking for Nordo too. We're elated for you first and
foremost for you and your family. Secondly that you're back
on the microphone December twenty eighth.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
God bless you, ma'am and continue to find all right.
Speaker 5 (36:31):
Thank you, brother. I love you both, Nordi, Nordo. You
guys have been there from a holding my hand throughout
all of this, and I can't wait till we're actually
all able to get back together and hug each other.
So are you coming to the super Bowl? I know
you're not going to bring your football team.
