Speaker 2 (13:54):
A couple thirteen fourteen past, I'm common. He's tend to
be about to talk about some of the very controversial.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
That's interesting. I'm gonna ask you a personal question, kap.
Do you ever like.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Use your smartphone a smartphone when you're going in the bathroom?

Speaker 1 (14:15):
Like sit down? Oh yeah, okay, yes, like every time.

Speaker 2 (14:21):
A new study published in Plos one reveals that using
smartphones while on the toilet significantly raises the risk of
developing hemorrhoids. Conducted by researchers at the Massachusetts General Hospital.
Can you imagine me given that that study and they go,
We've got a really important study for you. Oh what
am I gonna study? You're gonna study hemorrhoidal tissues. Conducted

(14:42):
by researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital. The study surveyed one
hundred and twenty five adults undergoing colon oscopy screenings about
their bathroom habits, including smartphone use. According to CNN, sixty
six percent of participants reported using their phones in the bathroom,
with thirty seven percent spending over five minutes the toilets

(15:06):
on the turlet, compared to just seven percent of non users.
The study found that those who use smartphones on the
turlet had a forty six percent higher risk of hemorrhoids.
Doctor Trisha pash Richa, the study senior author, explained that
prolonged sitting on an open toilet can increase pressure on
their reperal area, leading to ten of me. You say

(15:30):
you do it often? Do you suffer from the pain
and itching and swelling of hemorrhoidal tissues?

Speaker 1 (15:34):
That's a little more personal. Yeah, but no, not to
this point.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
Like if you have a hemorrhoid that is like the
size of a bread box, it's really bad.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
How would you like to get on that How would
you like to.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
Get on that exercise bicycle? Mister cole, Well, I'd really
rather not. Oh, I I guess I'm guilty, I mean
if I.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
But I don't I don't think I don't feel like
I go longer on the toilet because of the phone. Yeah,
but you know you're just going there. You're born, but
you know the bads breasts you just said.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
But if I can't do the phone, what's my number
two option? I wish I had more tickets for flops
or you are witty, maybe you should joy to see I.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
Tried the fun guy lying earlier and just no one
heard that. One did not go up.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
It didn't go over real well, but yeah, so, uh,
scrolling on the toilet is not good for you can
develop ham roidal tissues. Try to keep away from that.
I had a couple of these.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
Other but you know, like if you didn't have a phone,
I mean, there were still other ways to entertain yourself,
Like you know, pre phone, you'd say there were like
a magazine or something. Yeah, that's true. So what's the
what's the I guess there.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
Isn't any difference. I guess some people just going to
do their business. They get and they get out and
they don't do that. But I and then, you know,
I wonder what percentage of those people just didn't want
to say they actually scroll through their phone while they're
using the turlet.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
Yeah, everyone's on their phone, are they?

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Well? I bet some people. I bet some people aren't.
I bet some people don't. I'm discussing that's the minority.
I would think it's the minority as well, because they
said it was sixty six percent.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
Now here's another.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
Story I saw before we get back to little sports
sports sports.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
This is in Texas.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
Chipotle uses Zipline drone delivery to fly orders to customers.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Have you ever heard of such a thing like this? No.
I always figured that was gonna be the future.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
If you look up at the sky in Texas and
see what could be a flying burrito? Remember the Flying
Burrito Brothers. I was the name of a band back
in the seventies. I think you may not be a thinks.
Chipotle launched an autonomous aerial delivery service for digital orders
in the Dallas area through a partnership with Zipline, a
drone delivery and logistics provider. Chipotle is introducing zipotely new

(18:18):
delivery service for its customers. With Zippotely, small aircrafts called
zips can deliver digital orders directly to customers' homes in
just a few minutes. Initially, just a small number of
customers will be able to experience Zippotele, according to Chipotle,
which said it would expand the service in the coming weeks.
The brito chain is touting zippotely as a superior delivery

(18:40):
service that helps customers get their food faster so that
it stays fresh. Everything on Chipotlei's menu is available for
drone delivering the Dallas area. Orders for Chipotle Zippotele delivery
need to be placed through the Zipline app, available through
the Apple and Android stores.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
Here's how it works.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
Once a customer places an order, a Chipotle worker then
packs it and places it at a zipping point, where
a zip dron picks up the order and delivers it
to the customer. When the autonomous aircraft arrives at a
customer's home, it hovers about three hundred feet in the
air while lowering and gently as it in quotes placing

(19:20):
the order on the ground. Chapotle said the first location
to offer zippote delivery is thirty one oh nine Lakeview
Parkway in Rolette, a suburb in the eastern part of Dallas.
Kurt Garner, President in chief, Strategy and Technology Officer Chippotle,
said Zippotle is a quick and convenient source of delivery
that let's guests enjoy our real food from places that

(19:42):
are traditionally challenging to serve, including backyards and public parks.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
Zipline, you tap a button.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
In minutes later, food magically appears, hot, fresh, and ultra fast.
This is the zipline guy now talking What once felt
like science fiction is soon to become a.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
Toe total totally normal.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
Now it answered a question that I had immediately. For now,
each Autio's aircraft can carry orders up to five point
five pounds in weight that will increase to eight pounds
later on. It doesn't sound like a lot. Well no,
but you have five point five pounds of food? I mean,
what is one of those burritos weigh? You know, if

(20:24):
you hear a big old berrie, is that a pound
or not quite? Maybe three quarters or a pound? I
don't know. Yeah, you don't want to have too much
because it'll do it'll be a crash landing for crying
out loud.

Speaker 1 (20:37):
But when I first read it, I thought it sounded great.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
But this is better than door Dash really, well, what's
the other one they have?

Speaker 1 (20:46):
Door Dash and grub hub that they call it.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
I think they got two, three, four or five different
delivery search.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
A Chipotle burrito can weigh between thirteen and twenty seven ounces,
but the average is closer to sixteen and twenty one ounces. Okay,
so you could do easily.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
You could do a couple of burritos, a bag of
chips with guawk, drop it down in your backyard.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
I kind of liked the idea. I love that.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
Yeah, I think I really like that because then you
don't have to tip. Dear, I'm assuming you have to
pay more. You might have to pay more to get
the because the part of the.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Problem is it seems like it. I mean, like if
you do door dash.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
I've only in my entire life, I've done door dash
one time, and I think it was during the I'd
have been during the pandemic.

Speaker 1 (21:32):
I had to get something neat. I was at home.
I didn't want to leave the house.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
But the problem with going to get takeout and coming
home or even door dash, usually what it gets there
it's kind of lukewarm, and then some food just doesn't microwave.
But like if you take like a Culver's Burger a deluxe,
now you don't like the yucky stuff, so this wouldn't
apply to you. But if it's got lettuce, Mayo, pickles, onions, ketchup.

(22:01):
Then you put that in the microwave. It just doesn't
like when it's fresh off the grill. This at least
seems like there's no traffic lights per door dat you know,
door dash, you got traffic you know, you know, you
got traffic lights.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
You know the.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
If the callvers is like in Woodbury, the callvers is
a good ten.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
To twelve minute drive from my place by the.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
Time DoorDash guy gets there, and door dash guy's probably
doing several drops even before he gets to your house. Right,
could be you might not be first on the list.
Drone guy, drone hook it up, put it up, goes
in the air, flies boom, drops it down. I like it.

Speaker 1 (22:35):
I like it that way. I love it.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
Yeah, I think it's good. Maybe it'll come to the
twin seat.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
My fear as though it is like someone who wants
to be a bad person shoot it, well, not shoot
it down, but it's just like it's gonna follow it wherever,
and they're gonna pick it up before like the homeowner
whoever gets out and gets a chance to get it,
that you'd be like stalking it so you get your
free food. Oh yeah, but doesn't that also apply to
I've heard I've seen it at at at Panera, Chipotle.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
In these places, you called in your order and they
put it like in a bookshelf. And I've heard where
people will come in knowing that happens, they just grab
them because they they're so busy back there, nobody's watching anybody.
You say, well, I need lunch, I'll just sit outside
Chipotle for a few minutes and I'll wait for lunchtime,
and then I'll just walk in and grab it. Now,

(23:21):
you might not get what you want because you're just
grabbing the first one you see. But you know, you know,
once you've had one burrito, you've had them all high
like tacos. Don't you think that's some information I'd like
to know.

Doors open at four point thirty and the first joke

Speaker 1 (25:04):
Tammy.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
We broached this topic earlier and now the NFL has
initiated a review of the concussion protocol used in the
evaluation of Giants rookie QB. Jackson dart second half of
last night's win over Philadelphia. Leg announced today the review
will be conducted jointly with the NFL Players Association. For
those of you who are not familiar with what happened,

(25:27):
cameras caught coach Brian Dabele poking his head into the
blue injury tent on the sideline when Dart was being
checked for a concussion on Thursday night. Dart grabbed his
head after taking a hit while being sacked by Patrick
Johnson and falling into another Eagles linebacker late in the
third quarter. Dabell was impatient about the time it was

(25:48):
taken to clear Dart, saying he just wanted him out
there if he was okay.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Former starter Russ Wilson, who.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
Was benched four games into the season, entered the game
and threw incomplete on his only pass attempt. Here's a
I apologize directly to our team physician.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
He was acknowledging this. He should not have been. He
was wrong right.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
We were getting ready to go for it on a
potential fourth down. I could have burned a time out
if he could have come out there. I was asking
how long it was going to take. You want your
guy out there, not at risk of anything else. Dave All,
on a video call with reporters today, again tried to
explain he was wondering how long it would take. He
said the Giants would abide by all those rules for

(26:31):
concussion evaluation. He pointed out owner John Merra is on
the NFL's competition committee and that health and safety is
important to the organization from top down. He said, I
just stuck my head in to see how our quarterback
was doing. In no way would I want a player
to come back out there that wasn't ready to play.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
I have great respect for the process.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
Meanwhile, the league's chief medical officer, doctor Alan Sills, told
reporters attending the pregame tour MetLife Stadium medical facilities that
there were specific rules about who could be in the
tent during a concussion evaluation, namely the player, a team physician,
an independent specialist, and potentially a team athletic trainer. That'd
be an awful, crowded blue tent. It looks pretty small.

(27:14):
I mean it's like a phone booth for coining out.
Loud Still said, never more than those people. Never any
coaches in there, Never any other players in there, never
anybody else in there. Giants rookie camp Scatibo also poked
his head into the tent, joking was making sure that
Jackson wasn't hurting anybody in the injury tent. Scatamo said,
I knew going over there, I needed to calm down

(27:35):
a little bit because I knew he was going to
be on fire. When I was in there, he was
a little fired up. We know we have to go
through protocol and do all that stuff to make sure
we can get back on the field. I went in
there and kind of we're good man, We've got you,
and that's it. Story goes on to say it's at
least the third time, counting preseason, that Dart has missed

(27:56):
some amount of time during a game because of a
concussion evaluation, and he said he's tired of interruptions.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Dart said, it felt so long if you guys popped in.
I was just trying to get back there on the field.
I understand they have protocol and whatnot. I was just
trying to get out there fast.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
So it says, you know, and I didn't realize it's
it's the third time, counting preseason, he's undergone a concussion evaluation. Now,
that doesn't say I don't know how many of those
were positive.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
It doesn't sound like they were.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
I'm sure they would have mentioned that in the show
and said or in the story, I would have said
it was a pot he tested positive concussion.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
It sat out. It doesn't say that it but maybe
he hitd it. I just don't know.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
But that's three times he's been evaluated for it, and
I've often wondered. I've often wondered if how on the
up and up those are? I mean, but like I
said when we talked about it earlier, there have been
times where key players have gone into that tent and

(28:55):
I thought, there's no way they're keeping them.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Out of the game.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
This game's to import playoffs in play off football. And
yet guy comes out, he goes back to the locker room,
and he doesn't play the rest of the game. So
I think they probably followed the letter of the law.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
But I don't know.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
I don't know how you evaluate the concussion. I mean,
what do you do, Like do you hold up one
finger and then the guy follows your finger back and forth?
I mean, can you pass it and still maybe have
had a concussion.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
I would hope.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
That the medical personnel that are in that are that
are doing the concussion protocol the testing, aren't thinking.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
Got to get this game. I would hope they're not
doing that, but they shouldn't. But you're assuming everyone has
the same morals as you. You're also assuming, right, So
I said, I hope, I don't know. Yeah, Like, let's
face it, not and I'm not I'm not accusing Brian
Dable of any wrongdoing here because he might have just
been Hey, I just wonder how much time there is, right,

(29:53):
But he is also a guy that's been on the
hot seat a little Pitt's. He's been there for a while.
They haven't won a whole lot in recent years, and
he's getting to the point where he's on his last one, right,
And whoever his training staff is might also know, Man,
if we keep losing here, we're all going to lose
our jobs. So unfortunately, when there's money involved in jobs involved,

(30:16):
people can make decisions like that, and it's unfortunate. And frankly,
the Blue Tent to begin with, Like the Blue Tent
has not been in existing for the last forty to
fifty years. Correct, this has happened since basically all the
concussion stuff came down. Mostly so that, hey, if we
want to right, because the NFL is in deep trouble
if they do allow somebody who had a concussion to

(30:38):
go back on the field, and there were clear signs
on the bench. You know, back in the day, we'd
be able to see on camera the trainer talking to
the quarterback and look at his eyes. Why are you
allowing him back on the field. There's negligence there, whereas
now you put him in the blue tent and they
can kind of hide some of that stuff and don't
have to be as transparent.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
Well back in the old in olden days, when they
didn't even understand I mean, you know, they when they
didn't even understand concussions, or didn't I think they knew,
but they didn't.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Know how serious there can be. That it was just
called getting your bell rung.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
Oh you got his bell rung, get back as smelling salts,
you do a little those and you go back right.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
Back out and around the field.

Speaker 2 (31:17):
And then we talked about the idea that there are
some players that might just say, I don't care, I
want to play. I'm willing to take that risk, and
and I guess that can be dicey because if if
you really want to go back out and play, you know,
should you be allowed to go back out and play?

Speaker 1 (31:35):
I think you need to.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
Protect guys, right because in in in sports particularly like
you're you're you know, you're you're boxing, and you're hockey
and your your football, that are they're very physic, they're violent,
they're physical.

Speaker 1 (31:49):
Right, you can get your bell rung any play you're
encouraged to play with their paint.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
Exactly insults all of a sudden, It's like and and
and oftentimes I think the player wants to he wants
with these guy n play because they're competitive and they.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Think were warriors and I got to play it. You
play for a teams. Yeah, I'm all right, don't worry
about me. I'll be okay. But yeah, so they're going
to an issue goes back to Bud Grant. The best
ability is your availability. That's correct. And so the fact
that he's now been checked three times and it's his
rookie year, that's a little concerning. Yeah, that's getting Yeah,

(32:25):
and uh, and he's a rookie quarterback, Like you don't
want to not only for his life perspective, but you don't
want to derail his career either.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
Yeah, he seems to be you know, I described his
performance last week is brilliant that I got a lot
of pushback, and I guess it wasn't brilliant. Brilliant it was,
but he was pretty good last night. The numbers were
were awful nice, you know, I mean they weren't you know,
twenty five for thirty for three hundred plus yards. But
I think I don't think he threw any interceptions. What

(32:52):
words numbers that I looked like glanced at him. They
were two hundred plus yards. I think he threw I
don't know, like I say, I don't think he threw thirty.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
I think he probably threw well. Cam's Katabo, another rookie.
Rookie running back had a big game last night. He
ran for three tutties. Okay, balanced offense, and they put
up you know what were what was what were his
numbers for trying to get to it right now? Dart,
it looks like I mean he was something like seventeen

(33:23):
to twenty five or one hundred and eety five yards in
a tuddy. That's good numbers. Well yeah, his rating was
one of four point five eight. It's good quarterbacking. And
he ran for fifty eight yards in a touchdown as well,
which is a quality he has.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
The those would be nice. I'd take those for JJ
McCarthy every week. I wouldn't mind seeing numbers like that, right, Sure,
he's not he had one really good quarter, hasn't done that.
Text message says concussion evaluation done by independentsts not paid

(34:01):
by or have any affiliation with the individual teams.

Speaker 1 (34:03):
That is correct.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
But there are other people in the tent too, and
I don't know if any of them can be persuasive.
There's an athletic trainer and another guy from the team,
so you know, I but yeah, I mean, yes, they
have an independent.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
That's the thing when when you put a blue tent
over them, then you kind of lose some of your transparency.
So then whether they're founded or not, the conspiracies will
circumpany that is correct. That is correct, and so.

Speaker 2 (34:25):
Anyway, Okay, vikings Off trail the Kiddies by one game
in the NFC North.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
It's an interesting NFC North because I think two of
the teams are going to be underdogs in their matchup,
both Allions and Chicago playing on the road against quality teams.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
Detroit's you know, they've looked offensively, they've looked awfully good.
These last four games have been piling up points. They
seem there often seems to be picking up from where
it was last year. Defensively, they've got some injuries in
the secondary. You know, I know Mahomes in Kansas City.
They're two and three, and you know, maybe they're not

(35:11):
as good as they have been over the past ten years.
You know, earlier when they did they win like two
out of three Super Bowls. It was like two and
three year period, I think it was two and a
four year whatever it was, when they were really dominant,
when they were just having their way with everybody.

Speaker 1 (35:25):
They might not be.

Speaker 2 (35:28):
Top to bottom as good as that, but I still
that's that's a team to be reckoned with. I'm not
I know, I know I would not, and so you
go in there. My guess is they'll pick on those
that Detroit secondary, and I think Detroit, at least the
way it's looking right now is they're gonna have to

(35:49):
win games like they did last year. They led the
league in scoring. I think they averaged almost somewhere between
thirty and thirty five points a game, and they were
given up thirty points a game. They were they won.
Their record in one score games last year was remarkable,
and they were just outscoring the other team it was
almost like when they played whoever at the ball last
was going to win the game.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
And so you're right.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
I mean, let's say, for argument, State Kansas City wins
the game, Detroit falls to four and two. The Vikings
are right there there, and that goes back to that
discussion we had where and I appreciate the text messagers,
and it seems like there are many that have already
kind of given up on the season. They look at
they look at the team and go, I think what
they see is with the way the offensive line is

(36:31):
and even though some of these guys are going to
come back, but they look at the offensive line and
they look, however, in trouble against the run, and they
they've already cause I've seen the text. And I'm not
sure how many Viking fans out there field this week,
but they're like, we're not winning the big and you
know what, they're probably not winning the big game this year,
you know, but so they say, well, we're not winning
the big Game, so I just want to see what
we have in McCarthy. And you can make that argument.

(36:52):
I understand it, because you do want to see what
you have, but then you have to look at it
as much as you know the fans are important that
without fans or his no National Football League. I just
figured that out just now. But those players and those
organizations think differently. If you're three and two in one
game out of first place, you're not thinking, well, we
can't win, so let's just go ahead and play.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
Also, things can change so quickly in the NFL, which
all Philadelphia, they're now four and two. Yep, they were
four and all looking like the.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Best team in the National Football League, and I've lost
two games in a row.

Speaker 1 (37:24):
If the Vikings get healthy on the offensive line and
coming out of the by against the Philadelphia Eagles have
a convincing thirty four to thirteen win. Everyone listening right
now like, whoa, we got a shot this year. That's correct, right?
It changes in an instant.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
Yeah, that's that's with Philadelphia. Now again, we rather we
Mark Craig writes for fisherwrite He's NFL right at fisherright
Factory west Side. He wrote he had he had something
where he said, new rule. If you have a performance
Wentz did in the Final Drive, you shouldn't lose your job.

Speaker 1 (38:03):
You get to keep playing.

Speaker 2 (38:05):
And for the most part, all things being equal, I
tend to lean that way, unless, like we said yesterday,
if it's Patrick Mahomes who's hurt for three or four
weeks and he's even if his backup Gardner Minshew is
playing really well, Sorry, you go back to Pat Mahomes.
JJ McCarthy might get to Patmo. Patrick Mahomes rarefied air someday,

(38:30):
but I don't think that's happening soon. So that's a
different story. And if you know, if Wentz plays well,
I would continue to play him, I wouldn't, and I
guess at that point I'd have kind of a quick
like if he's awful against Philadelphia and then then I
then I say, okay, let's go ahead and go back
if he like if you say, if they come out

(38:51):
and they win and it's a really good game for
the Bikers, they win the game, and Wentz looks really good.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
I just think you're not. I just don't feel like you.
I don't have cow tow is the right word. But
you you put all your eggs in one. Is that
another clisch? I'm trying to use eggs one back that.

Speaker 2 (39:14):
You say, well, no, but it's all about JJ McCarthy
because he's going to be our quarterback of the future.
There's fifty two other guys on the club, right, there's
an organization and everybody, so it's like, well, no, it's
like sometimes it's like, kid, you're going to get your chance.
But Carson's got something going here right now. And we
we're now four and two and we're tied for first place,
and we don't know if he's going to be the
quarterback in the future.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
They drafted him to be the quarterback of the future.
That right, like the difference between the conversation you had
with Mahomes and JJ McCarthy. JJ McCarthy's not earned his spot. No,
he was given the spot and he might earn it eventually.
He might earn it in a week from now, but
there is no guarantee he's the quarterback in the future.
I like him to be. I liked him coming out

(39:56):
of Michigan. I liked the way he performed in the
fourth order at Chicago in week one. But he still
has to earn it, And in the NFL, you have
to earn it on a weekly basis. You're not just
giving things. Here's a controversial text message.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
The Jackson Dart numbers would be celebrated if JJ McCarthy
had the performance, yes, can the same be said if Wentz.

Speaker 1 (40:16):
Put those numbers up, if it led to a victory.
I think so, if you're beating Philadelphia thirty four to seventeen, yes,
I do think that.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
I think. I think because again, you know, it sounds
like Dart took care of the ball to there were
no ins in that, right. I don't think he threw
an end. I don't think he fumbled ran for some
yardage too. I think it would because I think right now,
anything you get out of Wentz is kind of gravy,
right because, as we discussed, he wasn't on a roster
until late in preseason, where we said Sam Howell's got nothing,

(40:50):
He's got about as much as this and howl the
third and they went off and signed him off the streets.
So to get any kind of performance like that, matter
of it, I'm I have to admit, i'm even though
he hasn't been brilliant to lead the team to two
and on record, i'm i'm, I'm like, remember when Deuce
was surprised when the Gophers were getting a lot of
first downs. I'm surprised but that Wenz has played because

(41:14):
I just thought he was done.

Speaker 1 (41:15):
I'd like to see it a little bit against better competitions,
but you know the way he did it in Cleveland
with that offensive line and you're missing, you know, one
half of your running back tandem. That was pretty impressive.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
This one this text message coming back at you on
your theory about earning it by saying you need opportunity
in order to earn it. Sure, which is true. He
had an opportunity for two weeks.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
I was off, but not starting at Philadelphia will not
eliminate his opportunity.

Speaker 2 (41:43):
That's exactly right, especially when he was And I'm not
saying after two games write him off, but he was
so bad on those first two games, it's like, well,
we gave me an opportunity there, and you were pretty
bad except for that one quarter.

Speaker 1 (41:55):
I'm I have to admit tenaby.

Speaker 2 (41:57):
I now have no clue for what they're For the
longest time, I thought they would go with wins. As
of yesterday, I thought, no, if McCarthy's ready, if he's
ready against Philadelphia, he's playing.

Speaker 1 (42:10):
And now I.

Speaker 2 (42:12):
And then I'm sticking with Carson, And there are those
that you brought this up, and I think this is possible.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
As well. Boy, you might want to let that ankle
heel a little bit more what you.

Speaker 2 (42:23):
Had ninety eight percent, which sure like to have you
at ninety at one hundred, you know, even.

Speaker 1 (42:27):
If it is healthy. Well, we haven't got enough practice
time for from.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
Exactly because you almost you're kind of hedging your bed
a little bit too, which I don't mind as well.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
So I think they start Carson and then they see
how it goes, and then you proceed from there. Yeah,
and uh, he plays well, you stay with him. If
he doesn't play well, you go to JAJ and.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
You go to JJ, and then JJ doesn't go well,
you go to It's it's bros Time, Broseman, it's Max
Rosmer's a baller.

Speaker 1 (42:51):
Yeah, he's a baller.

Speaker 2 (42:53):
Well that was a fast paced, action, pack controversial program.
I really enjoyed it. Ten of people doing a lot
of hockey this weekend. I'm assuming, right, a.

Speaker 1 (43:00):
Lot of youth hockey, Yes, I mean a lot of
youth hot hockey and parking rex soccer. That's my weekend, beautiful,
