Is Detroit Lions Dan Campbell NFL Coach of the Year?! | The Braylon Edwards Show with Shep

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
To do.

Speaker 2 (00:00):
That was Nick Lidstrom and the National Team Development Program
that change hockey in America forever. That's the difference in
Plymouth right now.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
That's the difference.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
That's if you want to know why Team USA has
shortness or or closed the gap on Canada, it's because
the National Team Development Program. Brady Kuchuk was at the NDTP,
so was Quinn Hughes. And all he did at Michigan
was kick everybody's ass, okay, and all he's done in
the pros has been outstanding.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
He's just phenomenal.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
And Detroit could have had him, could have had their
number one defenseman for the for ten ten years or so.
And they took a guy because of need. They wanted
a guy who could score. We need scoring, so let's
take a guy we think can score who didn't score
squat in the NHL. This guy not only scores, not

(00:55):
only prevents people from scoring, sets other people up to score,
and is all around great people. Yeah, it's a total package,
Lex Luthor Lex Luger I said yes, And you.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
Know that's that's even crazier when you juxtapose that with
what the Red Wings have been or haven't been. It's
like at least with the Pistons, they they we can
always say, you know, lick our wounds by saying, you
know what, at least we got the championship and oh four.
But it's like with the Red Wings when you're having
misses like that and it's just compounding, uh, the situation
when you haven't made the playoffs in a long time.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
That's a tough situation. Tough scene.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah, when you come from a family and he's got
three brothers all playing in the NHL, when he was
in the national team development program, played on the World
Junior stage twice, that's as high as you can get.
And as I mentioned, you know, played for Team USA
and has done everything. So it's crying over spilled milk.
They're still looking for there one of those types of defenseman,

(01:50):
if you notice, even though they have most cider, but
they're still looking for that guy.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
This guy would have fit the bill.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
And I think what frustrates us the most is oftentimes
when somebody is in your backyard and you still don't
get it done. All right, take a quick time out
after we hear from Ben Johnson and Art and Jakes,
we're going to dive into what sho Hey, o, Tani
did last night on the Biggest Stage and it's mind blowing.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
So last night, while most people were asleep, my partner
here was watching the Dodgers beat the Blue Jays six
to five in eighteen innings. The hero for the second
World Series in a year was Freddy Freeman, with a
solo home run in the eighteenth inning. I do too

(07:44):
four hundred and six feet to win it. Every bullpen
pitcher was used, It'll be interesting tonight as you watch
Shane Bieber throw against show Heyo Tani. But despite Freddy
Freeman winning for the Dodgers, really all the talk, and
rightfully so, is about show hey o. Tommy four for four,

(08:07):
four homers or two homers, two doubles, the first player
to have four extra base hits in a World Series
game since nineteen oh five. On top of that, he
had five consecutive walks, four free passes, and was on
base nine times, which is unbelievable. All right, So it

(08:31):
got us to think, in a little bit, what is
the most dominating performance a player has ever had, any
type of athlete in any sport, And you wonder. I
asked this of my son, who's a huge baseball nne
is oh Tani the best you've ever seen? And his

(08:51):
response was it's getting harder to say no. Now, we've
all seen a lot of great players.

Speaker 4 (08:57):
I mean, you've seen an.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
Unbelievable amount of great football players. It's hard for me
to get past certain guys from my childhood.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
I think we gravitate toward our childhood.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
But as you get older and you see a player
like Ken Graffy Junr who I think was just amazing, right,
was he better than Hank Aaron numbers wise, I could.
I could make a strong case for guys like Aaron
and Mantle and Williams and people like that, But for people.

Speaker 5 (09:25):
I number, you don't really have to make the case
because if you look at the numbers, his numbers destroy King.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
Griff Yeah, Hank Aarons because yes, yeah, and Ted Williams
to a certain extent.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
But that's way back. I'm talking about who you've seen.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
Let's call it recently, let's say at the last thirty
to forty years, Okay, and for me in baseball, even
though Otani's unbelievable at his peak, Mike Trout was incredible.
And I say, Kim Griffy Junr. Here's what I say.
Here's why I say this about Kim Graffyd Junior. It
wasn't just the fact that he could hit for power
and hit for average, but it.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Was because of his defense.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Okay, Yeah, when you're a ten time Gold Glover, there's
something to say to be said around that. So all
this is being made about Showhatani, and rightfully so, because
he's a freak. Fifty to fifty with stolen bases, and
homers right, power average, and he pitches. So everybody makes
a big deal all the pitches, and I get it.
But my question to everybody would be, this, is that

(10:21):
more important than the guy who's winning ten gold Gloves?
Because so Tani's not playing defense, he's pitching.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Yeah, but Ken.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Griffy Junior is playing defense and he's doing it at
an elite level every year.

Speaker 5 (10:34):
True, but when you're throwing ten strakos, there's not a
lot of need for defense. When you're out there throwing
ten straggles, there's not a lot of lead for defense.
And so to what Ken Griffy is doing, it affects
both sides of the plate, defense and offense.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
The same thing with Sho.

Speaker 5 (10:48):
He's shutting down games until the sixth seventh inning. Like
Ken's gonna have what two to three players out there?

Speaker 1 (10:55):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (10:56):
I'm saying a given game, he's gona have two to
three players. Show hey is legitimate stopping six innings worth
of work for the opposition, and oh, by the way,
let me hit three bombs.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yeah right.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
I mean it's like I said, it's hard to argue
that you're bringing up one game against Milwaukee in which
he had ten strikeouts and three homers in the same game.
He's not nobody could do that on a regular basis,
So you're right about that how he affects the game.
I'm just trying to play Devil's advocate here because all
I'm hearing from people is that he's the best I've
ever seen. And I think sometimes we forget some of

(11:29):
the previous greats you've ever seen in what they've accomplished too.

Speaker 5 (11:32):
I think sometimes also we're so sometimes some of us
feel like we need to be the police on not
forgetting the past.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
Yeah, And so it's like, oh, okay, okay, I understand what.
I know. You just saw something.

Speaker 5 (11:47):
I know it's amazing, but let me remind you about
And so it goes both ways. And sometimes it's fair
because you have to remember the guys that came in.
You have to remember performances that we've already seen, which
sho Hay does is electric. I think the thing that
draws people in Shell is because I don't think it's
a one off.

Speaker 4 (12:05):
Yeah, Like that's what gives the.

Speaker 5 (12:07):
Greenlighte for individuals saying he's already the best I've seen,
or for you to feel confident in it because shef
he did ten strikeouts, three home runs, he did the
two home runs, two doubles and you know nine nine
times here you did shep. I know I'm gonna see
these again out of him. I know this is not
the last time, like barring and I won't even.

Speaker 4 (12:28):
Say it out loud.

Speaker 5 (12:28):
I wouldn't put that type of juju in the world,
but I feel and know that I'm gonna see that
again out of him. And that's why I'm like, I
love King Griffy and Barry my favorite two players. Like
I started one way, King Grifford Jr. Is the best
player of all time for me. Barry Bonds, I think
is the best player of all time. But what show
Hay is doing, I can be honest. I think it's

(12:51):
one of those guys I mentioned, and I think it's show.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Hat best player. So that's strictly from a baseball stamp. Yeah,
if we get if we dive in and that performance was,
it's still look like I said before, it hasn't been
done since when you're talking about four extra base hits
in one World Series game and it's and it hasn't

(13:14):
been done. Okay, hasn't been done. But once in nineteen
oh five, and it's frank isbel of the Chicago White Sox.
And for him to be, you know, on base nine times, nobody,
nobody had ever done that in a playoff game, what
a lot of World Series game seven times. They'd never
gotten on base seven.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Times in a game.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
So he didn't just blow by a record, he set
a completely different, high level standard.

Speaker 9 (13:40):
Right.

Speaker 5 (13:40):
There have been some great performances and last night was
another one of those where it's like Jesus Christ, like
this man is amazing. Like when you sent that in
the text and it's said, I started thinking, you know,
I mean, I'm gonna go football. Yeah, I had to
have some football moments. There's some great basketballs too, but
just in a specific moment, I think what Calvin did
bringing it home to Detroit. Three hundred and forty three
hundred thirty eight yards against the Dallas Cowboys on nineteen

(14:04):
catches like that was just phenomenal.

Speaker 4 (14:05):
Have three hundred yards against that.

Speaker 5 (14:07):
I think about Jerry Rice did against the Falcons, considering
Deon Sanders was the one that was covering a lot
of that game. Two hundred and twenty five yards five
touchdowns like that was unheard of, Klay Thompson.

Speaker 4 (14:18):
The more recent sixty points on eleven dribbles.

Speaker 5 (14:21):
You can say what you want to about this day
and age, and all you have to do is catch
and shoot sixty points on.

Speaker 4 (14:25):
Eleven dribbles, like and all you heard was water the
whole game. I thought that was special.

Speaker 5 (14:32):
Randy Moss Thanksgiving, three catches, three touchdowns, one sixty.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
It was just another reason why I was very upset
the didn't draft.

Speaker 5 (14:42):
Those were some of the the em oh and Peyton
Manning when he was at Denver opening night they lose
to the Ravens in the playoffs the year before. Why
they had that game in Denver will always remain a
mystery to me because I don't understand how.

Speaker 4 (14:58):
You lose and then you get the host the Super
Bowl task but neither here nor there.

Speaker 5 (15:03):
Four hundred and sixty yards, seven touchdowns a was it
was ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
Yeah, those are really good examples. I love all of them.
So for me, when I when I look at it,
and it's obviously it's for me, it's more of a
season than it would be one specific game.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
I think of it.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
I never saw this, but Will Chamberlain's one hundred point
game is just it's stupid, it's ridiculous. I mean, has
anyone ever seriously have we even thought of something like that?
Have we thought of anybody could do something like that?
When like Kobe Bryant scoring to eighty one in two
thousand and six was mind blowing, right.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
The thing about that.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
That people forget because he's viewed as he's viewed as
a chucker. He's viewed as a guy who liked to
shoot a lot. Okay, fine, remember he made sixty percent
of his shots. Yeah, yeah, in that an elite shot.
It was that well, no, in that game. In that
game is.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
What I'm referring to.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
Okay, People also forget with Will Chamberlain when he scored
one hundred and yes, he scored one hundred when he
played for the Philadelphia Warriors before he went to LA
in nineteen sixty two, he grabbed twenty four rebounds.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Twenty five rebounds, I would hope.

Speaker 4 (16:19):
So, yeah, a hundred points.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Well, I mean you would think he's making all the
shots that he wasn't grabbing rebounds, So that's something. And
then you know Michael Jordan scored sixty three against Boston
in nineteen eighty six, and that Boston team is widely
viewed as one of the best of all time, So
all those are part of that conversation.

Speaker 4 (16:39):
For me, go ahead, is his one hundred overrated? Oh boy,
is it real? No, it is real.

Speaker 5 (16:46):
I won't play that game. I'm not playing that game.
I asked a legitimate question.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Right, Ryan wasn't even a thought, and he's asking if
it is real. But I got news for I got
news for you, man.

Speaker 1 (16:56):
It's not a I is it overrated?

Speaker 4 (16:58):
His offense?

Speaker 5 (16:59):
I mean, oh bro, we might because no one ever
saying like, all right, hear me out because the way
they present Wilt Chamberlain is mythological figure, which he is.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
So you present him as a seven to one, seven
to seven foot high.

Speaker 5 (17:11):
Jumper, he runs a four to four, four or five
whatever that is, all these mythological stats, and you're talking
about game in nineteen sixty two or he's seven to one,
towering over everybody. So what you presented about wil Chamberlain
like he's playing against Peon's, Like he's a guy playing
against mortals, and he's up and down the court like
is in an overrated one hundred?

Speaker 4 (17:31):
He was Wemby.

Speaker 1 (17:32):
Before Wemby, I would sing No, But that's that's just me.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
When when a man averages fifteen and a half points
in twenty six rebounds per game like he did that season, average.

Speaker 4 (17:44):
Fifty as a camp counselor.

Speaker 11 (17:47):
When I was playing for Brayl Edwards, best camp counselor
of all time, I.

Speaker 4 (17:51):
Was, I was a camp the jet.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Here we go.

Speaker 5 (17:54):
I'm just joking. I'm not knocking will'e hundred. I think
it's always a funny conversation.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
Yeah, but I do understand the point. He did play
in an era where some considered, if not the best,
one of the greatest defensive players of all to in
Bill Russell. All right, that that game wasn't against Bill Russell.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
It's a great point by you.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
The other record of the performance that I look at
and it's it's ridiculous. But when Gretzky shared fifty goals
in fifty games, that's to fifty goals in fifty games,
and by the way, he was twenty one when he
did it, that is stupid.

Speaker 1 (18:34):
All right, That that is insane.

Speaker 5 (18:36):
He go ahead, I just say he's the first individual
that I met, He's the first goat. Then I he's
the first goat that I met legitimately, and it wasn't
in the sport of football, it wasn't basketball, and I
was in awe. And when I legitimately knew I was
going to be in an outing that he was going
to be in, and when I knew I was going
to have an opportunity, and then when I ran into

(18:58):
him at the we were we were in the golf
shot approach shot beforehand, I was like, Holy, that's the
great way.

Speaker 4 (19:06):
You're right, you did come up with the season.

Speaker 5 (19:07):
Wise, if I go season not necessarily individual performance, I
think it's for more recency bias. Twenty fifteen to sixteen,
I think what Steph Curry was able to do four
hundred and two threes and kind of.

Speaker 4 (19:18):
Really that was the season unt where you're.

Speaker 5 (19:21):
Like, the three pointer is here to stay, Like this situation,
this system, it's proven the works. Now they lost in
the finals, but four hundred and two three throughout that season,
and that was the first unanimous MVP.

Speaker 4 (19:34):
That was one.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
Put that in perspective.

Speaker 4 (19:36):
Seventy three and nine also that, yeah.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
Yeah, put that in perspective.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
Malik Beasley set the franchise record last year with three
hundred and nineteen, and you're talking.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
You're talking about over four hundred for one guy.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
So that's a great one. I love I love that.
Let me just put this in perspective. He scored fifty
and fifty last year, and Leon Drive Shuttle is one
of the greatest players in the world right now. He
led the league last year with fifty two.

Speaker 9 (20:03):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
Okay, So Wayne Gretzky scored ninety two.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
This dude two games ago, yeah, yeah, And this dude
right here he won the MVP nine times in a
ten year span. He scored two hundred points or more
in a four out of five year span, and last
year the point leader was one hundred and six. So
that puts it in perspective. That's sometimes it's really important.

(20:29):
So obviously for another one for me is another guy
at the age of twenty one, which is still blows
your mind. But is Tiger Woods winning the Masters by
twelve strokes in nineteen ninety seven, just blew away everybody
at the age of twenty one. All right, I don't

(20:49):
care how he was groomed to be this, he still
did it at the age of twenty one. Just a
couple of more and we'll get some from the chat.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
As a kid Yeah, that was a different moment.

Speaker 5 (21:00):
I'm not trying to bring race into the situation, but
watching his live I remember like it was. Yes, I
was an eighth grader, U d down the street and
these are still racially driven times back then, man, And
to watch him do that and be at this Catholic
school to where the N word was very still prevalent,
and to have this man do that and let's sit
there and watch it as students, and for lack of

(21:22):
a better word, me looking at yeah, like this moment,
it's encapsulating in my brain as a young black man.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
Like Austin Reeves scored forty one last night for white guys. Yes, no,
he's fifty one two nights ago. He scored forty one
last night. So or Cooper de Jean being a corner.

Speaker 4 (21:50):
You know what, A.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Couple more from me, A couple more from me, and
then we'll get someone we're uh. Marilyn Muse scored five
goals in a playoff game. That's unheard of. Darryl Sittler
in nineteen seventy six had six goals and four assists.
He had ten points in one game, and then the
Roger Clemens strike out of twenty batters in nineteen eighty six,

(22:13):
followed up by Carrie Woods who did the same, Mark
Messier guaranteed to win and scoring a hat trick and
when his team was down to beat New Jersey, and
then of course Don Larson's perfect game in nineteen fifty
six that has still not been touched until perhaps tonight.

Speaker 12 (22:32):
Tiger's Masters ninety seven over US Open one thirteen strokes
in the worst whether I've seen somebody play that well.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
And that was something else too.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
Man, it's some of the stuff that we have been
able to witness or lucky, we're really fortunate for the fortunes.
So the other that I would bring up, and it's
it's more this is kind of a complex one, but
it's Michael Phelps. Michael Phelps is the greatest Olympian of

(23:06):
all times, and it's really not close. His first gold
medal came.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
At the age of fifteen.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
I'm sure people know that by now, but to me
that is mind blowing because I'm studying for chemistry and
having a hard time at age fifteen, and this dude
is swimming against some of the greatest swimmers in the
world and it's not and this is not to take
anything away from the guys that we've already talked about. Okay,
because eventually the Olympics covered everybody in the world. But

(23:36):
this is a very unique sporty where they train year
round for that one and he's doing it not just
in one stroke, he's doing it in multiple strokes, doing
it at age of fifteen, and then doing it for
an extended period of time, and no one's gonna touch it.
So him and Katie Ledecki, who doesn't get nearly enough

(23:57):
pub are the two greatest swimmers I think the world
has ever seen, both Americans, and both we've had the
opportunity to see.

Speaker 4 (24:04):
So Mike's my guy.

Speaker 5 (24:05):
I used to train at the pool with those dudes
and at the Aquatic Center. His freshman year was my
senior year at Michigan. So after he won in Greece
two thousand and four, After he won in Greece, like
we developed the friendship.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
We're locked in. He used to come to visit Monday
night games in New York and Cleveland.

Speaker 5 (24:21):
With that being said, I always asked him this question,
especially as we got older.

Speaker 4 (24:25):
I said, Mike, I know you're number one. I know
you're number one.

Speaker 5 (24:28):
You my guy, you're number one, that's up not up
for debate, But how close is you, sain Boat?

Speaker 4 (24:34):
How close is you saying boat to what he did?

Speaker 5 (24:36):
Like Michael Phelps has some silvers and Michael Phelp has
some bronzes, and I understand he has a million races,
and when you have twenty five plus medals, twenty seven
to be exactly, I want to say, it's a ton
and I get it.

Speaker 4 (24:48):
You sain Boats got four years in the Olympics. He's
got nothing but gold.

Speaker 5 (24:52):
He's got twelve gold medals and everything with all the
world records as it relates to events like what he did,
like he Michael Phelps to him at that time were
like special.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
Yes, yeah, Phelps is swimming in different events too. You,
Saint Bold is sprinting, and I'm not taking anything away
from it.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
Sprinting.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
Michael Phelps is much more multi dimensional. He's he's swimming medley's,
he's swimming in his own uh, he's swimming fre freestyle,
he's stringing butterfly, he's he's much more diverse in his
sport than you seen Bolt is in his Carl Lewis
would be a really good example too, because Carl Lewis

(25:31):
back in the day, did multiple events long jump, right
and running and all these other different things.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
I agree with you right there on the diversity of
it all.

Speaker 5 (25:39):
Yeah, and that's why I want him saying I say
I stayed there, But I disagree with the diversity of
Carl Lewis versus you saying both. I don't care about
the diversity. Twelve gold medals is twelve gold medals. Like
every race you were in chep you won, like for
four years, excuse me, for sixteen years. That's tough considering
exactly what you said you trained for you saying Boat

(26:00):
it was nine point five eight seconds four years for that,
and you do all the metrics on his time as
he never lost shep Yeah, yeah, never long.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
That's that's what I That's the I never I had
with both of those guys. And I have Phelps and
and you saying Boat on my list and the amazing category,
along with a guy named Reggie Bush too, who during
my time when I was young, looking at football, I'm like,
every time this guy touched the ball, it was something
amazing going on.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
That that's a good that's a good one.

Speaker 5 (26:29):
He's the most electrifying college player and yeah, it's not
even close.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
Thank you for taking us there. I didn't I didn't
think about that.

Speaker 5 (26:37):
Reggie good one and Peter Ward for me growing up
like Reggie, Peter and Charles and they were just like
electrical and like with Reggie.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Peter Ward was a wide receiver Florida State.

Speaker 5 (26:47):
Yeah, yeah, he made He most famously made twelve people
miss on the football field and apart return shep there's
only eleven guys on the field.

Speaker 9 (26:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:56):
Yeah, yeah, somebody had to miss twice, saying more so
than dion at Florida State.

Speaker 5 (27:02):
Huh, but Deon's a little older than me. And then
like so I was able to watch Peter war at
Florida State. I was able to put eyes on him
and like the culture he crew that he was a
part of that era, the magna grip gloves that came
out with the black and white. Those are different, but
watching him, he was elitely special like Dionne was special,
was a part returning he's a dB. Yeah, but Peter

(27:22):
got the ball like a lot during the games, and
you watch him turn the tide of games.

Speaker 4 (27:26):
And they won too, They won a nasal championship.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
Yeah, that matters. I guess for me, I love the
Reggie Bush thing. The beauty of all that is that
there there really is. There's no wrong answer. Right for me,
it would be probably I'd gravitate a little bit more
toward again. This is my favorite so Earl Campbell and

(27:50):
herschel Walker because I think herschel Walker was one of
the most dynamic running backs I've ever seen in college.
Simply amazing and a finalist for the Heisman I believe
three times. Yeah, okay, and won a national championship.

Speaker 4 (28:04):
They weren't giving those small scoos, especially HBCUs like championships.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
Bag was referring to Breggie Bush, the Reggie B.

Speaker 4 (28:10):
Bush stuff, Reggie one.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
Yeah, I know he did. Everybody knows, and I do
have a couple of everybody's well aware of that part.

Speaker 4 (28:17):
Yeah, he just got it back.

Speaker 3 (28:19):
Yeah, I was just I have a couple of categories
I wanted to share for performers. Ben Wallace, Calvin Johnson,
and Pavel Datsu were just absolutely amazing performers to watch.
But there was this one category I had that I
called great Mysteries Summer League, Austin Day, Stanley Johnson's seventy
points in the Ovio game Find Me Today, and the.

Speaker 4 (28:37):
Matt freaking Flynn game that lives rent free.

Speaker 3 (28:40):
In my head, man Jerry won twenty twelve and eighty yards.
I still don't understand why and how we got that
man paid.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
So the Matt Flynn game you're referring to against the
Lions in Green Bay, right, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:54):
Matt Flynn is like he's we finally got one in lambo.

Speaker 5 (28:57):
Matt Flynne is a great example of like when you
have backup energy, like you're just always going to be
a backup. Yeah, Like what I mean by that is
you can be a backup, not have backup energy, you
can be a backup.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
Like.

Speaker 5 (29:10):
Look, as soon as I get an opportunity, like the
starter will never see the field again. Matt Flyin has
this moment six touchdowns, five hundred yards whatever it was.

Speaker 4 (29:18):
Uh gets paid.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
By the Seattle.

Speaker 4 (29:23):
I got to Seattle at the same time.

Speaker 13 (29:25):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (29:26):
Pete wanted Russ the whole time. Like Pete wanted Russ
Like he was not trying to give Matt Flyinn.

Speaker 4 (29:30):
He's like, I ain't draft him, He's not my guy.
Pete loved his guys, the guys hes drafted.

Speaker 5 (29:35):
Trust me, I know but I still love Pete.

Speaker 4 (29:38):
He never tried to fight for the job.

Speaker 5 (29:40):
He legitimately spent the whole training camp complaining about not
getting reps. He spent the whole training camp kind of
like it's gonna bes man. I ain't know they can
bring me out here to do this. Like I was like, Matt,
they just paid you, whatever it was. I said, go
fight for your job. Go fight for the job.

Speaker 4 (29:58):
You know what they told me. He was very content
and getting paid.

Speaker 5 (30:01):
And then auntin Millie was like, well, I mean, however
the course plays out, it plays out if I'm the
start on the start. If they don't want me to
be out, won't be. That's that backup energy. Wow, No,
you want me to start, you paid me to start.
I'm coming here with like what, I'm starter's energy until
you you know, until I get my job taken from him.

Speaker 4 (30:20):
So, but yes, he had backup energy.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
That's connected.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
That is an interesting uh such things diagnosis. Yeah I
didn't either. That's backup energy. I love that stuff.

Speaker 1 (30:32):
Well I don't love it, but.

Speaker 2 (30:32):
I mean I understand where you're coming from. I was
at that game covering it forty five forty one Green
Bay won it. What people forget. I think in that
game is how good Stafford was. Yes, Stafford threw for
five twenty and five touchdowns in that game.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
Now he threw a couple of picks, which doesn't help.
But Matt Flinn and.

Speaker 3 (30:52):
Then the pole outside in Lambeau, that was like the
narrative buster game.

Speaker 4 (30:57):
And then Flynn just came and just took it off.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
Do you know in that there was over one hundred
passes in that game, Matt Flynn through forty four, Matthew
Stafford through fifty nine. Like your arm's falling off. That's
somebody that somebody throws. It weren't that game, and I
know it's a bad.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
One, okay, Jim Schwartz.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
I mean I think Detroit Detroit ended up, but I
think that year they finished with ten wins.

Speaker 4 (31:21):
But the point is it was just ripping, letting it rip.

Speaker 2 (31:24):
Yeah, just letting it rip because they couldn't run with
a damp.

Speaker 5 (31:27):
It's like that another performance you we're having this conversations
about performances.

Speaker 4 (31:31):
The Eli man Drew Brees night. Oh where it was it?

Speaker 5 (31:35):
Eli threw for six touchdowns and lost because Drew threw
for seven.

Speaker 1 (31:40):
How about that?

Speaker 2 (31:41):
That was nasty Uh, do those games entertain you more
when it gets like that?

Speaker 14 (31:47):
No?

Speaker 1 (31:47):
I mean when have we shifted? You know it used
to be a running back league.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
Yeah, I mean Barry of course, and Walter Payton, all
the great running back you.

Speaker 4 (31:54):
See six seven touchdowns.

Speaker 5 (31:56):
It is fun, but like, yeah, like I'm more fun
around the forty two thirty nine.

Speaker 4 (32:00):
Okay, because I know it gets goofy.

Speaker 2 (32:03):
I don't fall back and say, oh, I wish I
had Chuck Foreman days again, because I really like I really.

Speaker 1 (32:09):
Like Chuck Foreman.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
I don't want I don't want to see John Cappelletti.
All I'm saying is back then it was a running league.
Now it's a passing league. More points obviously the offense
and all the rules favor the.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
Offense too, Let's face it.

Speaker 2 (32:24):
So do you like it better now than perhaps when
guys were running it more efficiently?

Speaker 4 (32:31):
No?

Speaker 5 (32:31):
I enjoyed it more in ninety five to when I
ninety five to ten, ninety five to twenty ninety five.

Speaker 4 (32:41):
I fell in love with insert, you know, like.

Speaker 5 (32:43):
I said Charles Woodson, Randy Mass Champ Bailey, Tom Payton,
the league takes off, goes in a different route like
I love what that era was, Adrian Peterson, are you
talking about seasonal performances?

Speaker 4 (32:55):
Man?

Speaker 5 (32:55):
Towards ACL came back the next year, I had two thousand,
ninety yards wrestling. It's crazy, Like, that's one of the
most epic seasons following injury that you will ever see
in life.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Yeah, he broke the barrier, so like nobody thought that
could happen.

Speaker 5 (33:06):
And it was still physical, but it still was highest scoring.
You had your plays. You had guys that could pass
the ball for five thousand, like Drew Brees. You had
guys that can run the ball eighteen hundred like LT Like.
I enjoyed that area, and I think it's still made
for some really good football, some really good Super Bowls,
really good moments like lock me into ninety five.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
To love that, And we'll leave that. Adrian Peterson just
out there. We don't need to talk about what happened
to him recently. No, it's good stuff though, But man,
was he a good player. I'll tell you this one
of the I've said plenty of dumb things. Okay, we
all made stupid prognostications. Yeah, Okay, I was on a
flight and I was next to a guy. We were

(33:46):
talking about Adrian Peterson and coming out of the draft,
and I'm like, I wouldn't take him because of the injuries.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Hey listen, I'm throwing myself under the bus here. Okay.
It's easy to sit back now and go, oh my god,
how could you think that hid knee injuries?

Speaker 2 (34:02):
He had a knee problem, Okay, And we complained about
the Lions drafting injured players.

Speaker 13 (34:08):
Right.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
I was haunted a little bit and said I wouldn't
take him. Could not have been more wrong.

Speaker 5 (34:15):
He had For me, it was more so to your point,
more was in the mix. So for me, that's why
I make that face. Had nineteen hundred as a freshman,
like hard stop, nineteen hundreds of freshman Oklahoma. They had
Jamal was at a great offensive line, have receivers, heightsman, troke, whatever.

Speaker 4 (34:30):
He was really good in that space. Shep.

Speaker 5 (34:32):
I met him at the ESPN Awards. It is my
senior year. I'm going for the Blitzannikoff, All American, the
Watcher Camp, the whole nine yards. He's out there as well.
He's representing Oklahoma and they got some guys and I
saw him. I said, oh, that's Adrian Peterson. That's the
kid from Oklahoma, the kid and we like the same age.
I let me go up to him and see what's
something with him?

Speaker 4 (34:51):
Shep. I went up to shake this man hand.

Speaker 5 (34:54):
It is the strongest handshake than I have ever had
in my life. When I when you know how sometimes
you go into a handshake and you get caught where
they catch your fingers like I'm legitimate trying to trying
to regive my grip, get my grip back. When I
finished taking his hand, I set my dad up.

Speaker 4 (35:12):
I said, hey, dad's listening.

Speaker 5 (35:15):
He knows I'm gonna line. I said, hey Dad, it's
agent Peter snow Man. Look, come on, i'mna introduce you.
I said, agent is my day. He grab his hand
and then I saw him struggle. And then when we walked.

Speaker 4 (35:24):
Away, I said that that was strong handsacke.

Speaker 5 (35:29):
After shaking his hand, I said, nah, he's all day
for a reason. He had them brick laying hands like
Jay Rice. Now I knew he was gonna be special man.
He broke my hand.

Speaker 1 (35:37):
Incredibly decorated, incredible player.

Speaker 4 (35:40):
But he did have me sophomore year and then again
beginning junior.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
Yeah, his junior year, and yet he still rushed for
over one thousand yards. Yeah, okay, so you're you're right,
nineteen hundred yards. His freshman year with fifteen touchdowns, didn't
rush for as many yards as herschel Walker scored as
many touchdowns, But the reason is because of the injuries.
So in his sophomore year he played eleven of the
thirteen games in his junior year, then he came out.

(36:06):
He played only seven games. There was my trepidation. I
wish I could take it back.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
I can't. That was flat out wrong. Go ahead, kool
as I say.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
We do have one entry from the chat as relates
a crazy clown. He says, when Jared Goff went eighteen
for eighteen with no pick Hall of Fame.

Speaker 14 (36:30):
We just we just talked about performances like Tiger Woods
and the Masters.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Of eighteen for eighteen in early regular season caves. That's fantastic.
What happens.

Speaker 7 (36:46):
That?

Speaker 4 (36:46):
That is what he has to hold.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Roderick, I was struck out twenty. Jared Goff went eighteen
for eighteen, a couple of dumpops.

Speaker 4 (36:54):
Speaking of strug out twenty in the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (36:59):
There you go, hum about that. Roger Clemens, I think
did it twice. Yeah, because remember he did it at
Tiger Stadium against the Tigers. That was That was brutal.
All right, Listen, Halloween is at the end of the week.
When we come back, we're going to talk about each day,
we're going to do something about Halloween as the build
up continues. I do not I haven't tricked. I haven't

(37:23):
tricked or treating a long long time.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
Okay, as you can tell.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
But I'll if somebody does go trick or treating, I'll
pick something out of their bag that's well.

Speaker 5 (37:32):
Look at Jambo's trunk or treat. What are you looking
for in the in the in the trick or treat bag.

Speaker 1 (37:38):
Uh, one grand would be good.

Speaker 4 (37:40):

Speaker 9 (46:02):
I'm not lying.

Speaker 2 (46:02):
So eyes are watering just a little bit, and uh
as good as it is, the thing is I rarely

Speaker 1 (46:17):
Calm down. It's like my dog when I feed.

Him, you know.

Speaker 4 (46:22):
Yeah, nothing clauses brain freezes more. And you talked about

is your number one brain freeze.

Speaker 5 (46:32):
To talk about that, maybe I just say, Slurpy you
get nobody any publish good unless you deserve it. Smoothie King,
Buddies pizza. But yeah, Slurpees, that's the fastest brain.

Speaker 4 (46:42):
Freezer you will get.

Speaker 1 (46:43):
I agree. I saw Doc last night.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
Okay, yeah, very casual shorts, shirt, sunglasses hanging from the shirt.
Never understood people, never, I never, yeah, never understood people
wearing sunglasses and ors explain that one to me.

Speaker 4 (47:02):
The last victory shade fashion in the look.

Speaker 2 (47:05):
There definitely wasn't a victory shade last night.

Speaker 4 (47:09):
Baby was wearing it from yesterday.

Speaker 1 (47:11):
Just fashion.

Speaker 5 (47:12):
I wore a lot of glass in the club and
they all had them Gucci, Louis Findy, Prada. Hey, you know,
Buff's shout out to Detroit. You know, what I'm saying, get.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
My Billy, Bobby Daby, all that stuff.

Speaker 4 (47:26):
Yeah, it's fashion, it's not. It may not be.

Speaker 1 (47:28):
How do you see in the club? How do you see?
If you got sunglasses on in the club.

Speaker 5 (47:32):
If you're in the space, you're really not trying to
see pass like what's in front of you. You put
the glasses on, You're really only looking to your love,
looking to you, right, This is for you, chef, But
you're looking at the club. You're looking at just in
your booth, just in your section. But chef, this is
a few ladies and gentlemen. We talked about guys that
got fired, the coaches that were going. Brian Kelly is
out at LSU and this is how he would attempt

(47:56):
to get his next Howard, which if you don't know,
which is ABC you historical black couple.

Speaker 4 (48:04):
This is why I always say.

Speaker 5 (48:06):
That there should be a very Oscar for the comedic performance,
because I think comedians, I think comedy is the is
the best actors. I think they have the best genre
because from comedy you use those guys turned in the
great actors down the line to pull this off and
have no black person in world manager Oscar.

Speaker 1 (48:27):
It was a master.

Speaker 5 (48:28):
He can do it again to be for all out care.
He has a pass to imitate him as long as
he want to, because.

Speaker 4 (48:33):
This was brilliant. So this is gonna be Brian Kelly.

Speaker 1 (48:37):
Though, have you ever read brought down what you mean?

Speaker 9 (48:41):
You people?

Speaker 1 (48:42):
Have you ever read anything about him accepting that role?
I have not.

Speaker 2 (48:47):
I wondered how uncomfortable he was in taking that role
or or if there were any reservations.

Speaker 5 (48:53):
He said he talked to Jamie Fox a lot throughout
this process. He worked with Jamie Fox's process trying to
figure out I want to dive into this, but he said,
I don't kind of like the same thing, not kind
of the same thing, but like Leonardo DiCaprio and Jingo
having a whole conversation with Samuel Jackson and Jamie Fox
once again Jamie Fox. We said Jamie was able to

(49:15):
help him with this role and say, look, he says,
it's comedy in side tire.

Speaker 4 (49:18):
He said, just play on the things you're supposed to
play on. Own it. People will receiving.

Speaker 2 (49:23):
When he did the Jefferson song, but he did it
as a good.

Speaker 1 (49:29):
That's just a phrase instead of singing. I could not
stop laughing. It was uncontrollable.

Speaker 5 (49:38):
Also, you know who else gets a lot deserve a
lot of crazy Tom Cruise.

Speaker 4 (49:42):
Yes, yes, he killed his role. He did his little
seven minutes and he hey, hey, who right there? Are
you the key grip? I want you to punch him
eye as hard as you can. Like this movie like.

Speaker 1 (49:56):
It's kind of underrated. It's it is funny.

Speaker 5 (50:00):
You gotta tap in and tap because the Spaces movie.
Really Yes, oh simple Jack in the Village, this is
this is an elite comedy movie with this role by him.

Speaker 4 (50:14):
Uh, kudos, kudos.

Speaker 5 (50:17):
He's he's special for a reason.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
It was fantastic. That's a that's a thank you for
that little comic relief for us.

Speaker 4 (50:24):
And you look like, no, you can keep going.

Speaker 1 (50:32):
That's some of the best stuff we've had today.

Speaker 5 (50:35):
This role is a really good man and Jack and
Jack Jack Black, he's hilarious too.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
So well.

Speaker 2 (50:41):
I don't know if he's played many scary movies, but
I can tell you this, there's with Halloween coming up,
there's gonna be plenty of scary costumes, and I would
assume you've played against some scary players. So it made
me wonder just a little bit who are some of
the scariest players have ever you've ever played against.

Speaker 5 (51:00):
All Right, I'll be I'll give you three only only
because I mean, I'll give you four only because one
I talk about all the time.

Speaker 4 (51:07):
But he has to go in here.

Speaker 5 (51:08):
I'll start with him and then move past them like
ray Lewis and ray Lewis, like ray Lewis is ray
Lewis and I had to play against him and for
four and a half years in the same division. I
thought I got I thought I escaped, and then my
first money in that game for the Jets following year.

Speaker 4 (51:21):
Guess what up? Here's Baltimore Ravens again. Like Sheffy was
scary in the sense of one, you know, the physical meaning,
the physical menacing presence.

Speaker 5 (51:29):
He's six two, he's two fifty back then you know
he can run, he can hit. But Sheppy knew the game.
He studied hours and hours and hours of tape, and
he could motivate that team like no other.

Speaker 1 (51:39):
You know me, very cerebral player.

Speaker 5 (51:41):
How many times I've overheard him talking to Terrell Suggs
or talking to Haladi Noda or Haladi Nada or.

Speaker 4 (51:49):
Talking to Ed Reid and the conversations he said, man,
he don't want to play to day, he said, ed
how great you're gonna be.

Speaker 5 (51:56):
Today because you and then you start pointing at us
like like we're ravel right, hello, we're right here, he said,
because number seventeen he ain't it, he don't want it.
Number eighty one like he does this all the time,
and like you're in your huddle. If you're on a
good team, you can look at this as semantics like
if I'm the Patriots, which they had a great right
d at the time, what it still is. I'm like, all right, man,
this man is great, but all right, let's lock in

(52:17):
what we got. But when you play for the Browns
and we suck, like I'm listening a little out, I'm
listening to a little harder because it affects me. So
when you call a slant for the nineteenth time of
Rob Tatzinski and Ray knows what I'm doing every time
I'm lining up, this might be my last player game,
like this might be my last player this series real,

(52:38):
because this is not in the time now where I'm
like looking crocodiling or falling down like nah, I'm going here,
I'm gonna catch that pass on my head knocked out.

Speaker 4 (52:46):
So just knowing that every time.

Speaker 5 (52:48):
Ray Lewis is on this list for sure, same division,
a different team, another rival.

Speaker 4 (52:56):
James Harrison still crazy.

Speaker 1 (52:57):
Oh yeah, Like.

Speaker 5 (52:59):
To play against that. Josh Crills went to the same
college he did. Josh Grills, my teammate. I just asked
him one time, I said, why is he Why is
he like anybody? Why is he so crazy y'all signing?
Like you know he'll always been like that.

Speaker 10 (53:10):
Man.

Speaker 5 (53:10):
You just bet I hope they'll call those slants. Guess what,
here's another slant team. So to know that James Harrison,
he would do little little freaky things, like freaky, like crazy,
like he lined up on the outside linebacker and I'm
lined up over here, and then he was just like,
look shup.

Speaker 4 (53:27):
I think it's all all blitzed. And at the last
second he was.

Speaker 7 (53:29):
Like, don't do it.

Speaker 9 (53:31):
What like.

Speaker 5 (53:34):
Legitimately like James Harrison terror Like I he hit me
so hard one player, like I had to be tough
and like it didn't happen.

Speaker 4 (53:41):
I was on the sideline try I forgot my name.

Speaker 5 (53:42):
Was for three plays just to get told to go
back in there. It's third and five, we need you
run a drag, a drag. I gotta go in there again.
So him, uh, Peyton Manning? What really Peyton Manning? Like
I've played against.

Speaker 4 (53:57):
Peigon expected to go there, same scare. He's relative scary,
doesn't have it. It doesn't have to be getting physically
beat up.

Speaker 1 (54:03):
Yeah, good point.

Speaker 5 (54:05):
I've seen him do this four times, and I'll just
say one time and you'll get what I'm talking about.
So AFC Championship game, we get a turnover, we're already up.

Speaker 4 (54:16):
We're already up.

Speaker 5 (54:16):
By seven, so we're assuming that it's three minutes left
in the half. We get the ball back after the half. Sure,
when we get the ball in the thirty, they're thirty, man,
we about to go and score touchdown or a field goal.
Come in and get the ball back. Terrible play calling.
We missed the field goal thirty seven seconds left in

(54:37):
the half. I'm like, eh, they're legitimately at the thirty.
Giver take no, not the thirty, because we advanced the
ball a little bit, so the field goal would have
been from about the seven, So we were like the
seventeen we got eighty three hours ago. Soull he got
there in twenty three seconds.

Speaker 4 (54:54):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (54:55):
Three plays and I'm talking about I blinked on the
sideline to try to figure out we're talking. I'm talking
to Mark Sanchez, I'm talking to Brian Scheinhimer in the
head and the headsets.

Speaker 4 (55:04):
I was like, why did you call this? What's going
on here? Why'd you call that a touchdown?

Speaker 9 (55:14):
Hold on?

Speaker 4 (55:14):
Hold on? How did you even get here?

Speaker 5 (55:17):
And then he sold little touchdown to Austin Colley like
he was El Baba Yaga. And he did that again
when I was in Cleveland. He did it again when
I played for the Seattle Seahawks, like just in which
he can break you down to whatever momentum you thought
you had Toime does the same thing. I've seen time
do it, but Peyton Manning did it the most. And
then Troy Polamlo. Oh yeah, Troy Palamlo. Not because he

(55:39):
was physically menacing, which he'll hit you, he'll knock you out.

Speaker 4 (55:42):
But to see a guy everywhere like in that, it
was crazy.

Speaker 2 (55:47):
I would I would have guessed back in the day
before you played. There are three guys who came to
mind for me and Ryan and Kooley. We'll get yours
here in a minute. The three scariest guys I would
think for me rooting for my team against them. So
I've always made it a big fan of running a lot,
you know. I think he's the best safety of all time.

(56:09):
Loved him, brought the hammer, was great at every aspect
of it. So mad respect for him when I was
a kid. Not that I like this team, but the
Pittsburgh Steelers defense. And it's I know people love the
Ravens and they love the Bears, but when I was
a kid, it was all about the Steelers. When you've
got me and Joe green Greenwood, yeah, and Elsie Greenwood

(56:32):
and you've got three linebackers. But Jack Lambert, maybe it's
because he didn't have any teeth, I don't know, but
he was a scary man. And then just just the
the clips that I've seen because I never saw him play,
Dick Bukiss was one of those guys who literally.

Speaker 1 (56:49):
Tried to rip your head off.

Speaker 2 (56:50):
I mean, I can't tell you how many personal foul
penalties he would have gotten today compared to when he
did play. Now, there's a lot of great players and
a lot of men they seen players. Jack Tatum would
hit you and you knock you out and all this
other stuff, But those three guys Ronnie Lott, Jack Lambert,
Dick Buckkiss, I would guess would be on just about

(57:10):
everybody's list because of their ability to scare you.

Speaker 4 (57:13):
Here's a new one.

Speaker 5 (57:14):
I think some of the guys in the chat, some
of the people in the excuse me, how are you?

Speaker 4 (57:17):
Girls? Guys, however you identify there is real. It's fine.
This is what we do. We gotta make sure you
are cool with everybody.

Speaker 5 (57:27):
There's a guy that was ridiculous for a short span
I played on the same team. I didn't know how
much of a terror he was until I was on
the same team, so.

Speaker 4 (57:35):
I never had to worry about him.

Speaker 5 (57:37):
I'll give you a hint, like it's this is the
Seattle Seahawks, so you know where I'm going. Oh yeah,
bam bam cam. It wasn't until I played on this team.
And watch him knock Vernon Davis out, Watch him knock
out Michael Crabtree, watch him knockout like he knocked out
Earl Thomas, his own teammate, Like I didn't have to
play against it.

Speaker 1 (57:57):
Who was a badass too say he.

Speaker 5 (57:59):
Was better in terms as a player, but in terms
of knocking somebody out. I seen him do things in
practice too, where you're like, oh, with teammates, that's one, yeah,
you don't do that. Cam had one speed and that's
people was to knock you out. So he definitely is
one of those players. A lot of wide receivers and
you saw a lot of alligate arms. When you play

(58:20):
in Seattle, guys are like.

Speaker 1 (58:22):
Little Bill Schroeder. Yeah, remember that when he.

Speaker 4 (58:25):
Came over here from Cam was nuts.

Speaker 1 (58:27):
Any names we may have missed, kool aid that you
were thinking about. Uh, you know what.

Speaker 3 (58:32):
One guy that just terrorized me as a Lions fan
was Jared Allen the Vikings. He would talk his talk
before he got here and then he would get to
Detroit and absolutely.

Speaker 4 (58:40):
Back it up.

Speaker 3 (58:41):
It was just one of those guys that in the
division your squad, Matthew Stafford is trying to make his way.
It just it was not a good mix for me.
But players that absolutely scared me. I thought that the
duo of Kobe and Shaq, you know even before four
and after.

Speaker 1 (58:57):
Four man goes back to basketball.

Speaker 3 (58:59):
I was a basketball theme. It's always gonna go back
to basketball for me. But in hockey, it's not a
guy that we had to play against. But this guy
that we had, and it was Cronwall. The way that
this guy would go out there and lay some of
the most impressive hits and be a weapon, be something
that the other team knew.

Speaker 4 (59:17):
We have to keep our head on the swivel for
this guy.

Speaker 3 (59:20):
It was something to see this guy go out there
and dominate from a just.

Speaker 4 (59:23):
A sheer position of physicality. My body vers yours, I'm
gonna break you like it was. It was something to.

Speaker 2 (59:30):
Say in Vladimir Constantinov before him. Yeah, yeah, it with
Darren McCarty's old teammate Ryan, anybody jumped to your mind.

Speaker 4 (59:38):
Uh, Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 11 (59:40):
Aaron Rodgers always scared me as a Lions fan and
then to college football just for just as a whole group.
I thought the whole twenty thirteen Michigan State defense was scary,
just thinking back to that Devin Gardner always on the
ground type of game, whatever it was, when they had
like negative five rushing yard it's for a whole game

(01:00:00):
or something like that I thought was crazy. But no,
I think Aaron Rodgers was definitely the scariest because you
could be up by you could have scored a touchdown,
gone up by a touchdown, or gone up by three
or so with twenty seconds ago, and you know Rogers
is gonna have a shot or throw some bs hail
Mary call or something.

Speaker 4 (01:00:18):
But you knew he was going to just somehow was
gonna happen. Yeah, but Rogers was scariest.

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
Those guys make things happen, right, I mean that.

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
I'm glad you brought that up because I I think
when I think scary, and I think, you know, holloweendom. Yeah,
but not just because of how he painted his face.
Football players John Randall, Yeah, Randall McDaniel was a teammate
of his offensive lineman Aaron Aaron Donald didn't have his
face painted like that.

Speaker 1 (01:00:46):
But because he was.

Speaker 2 (01:00:47):
So dominant at what he did, Yeah, so dominant you
could actually add him to the list for me anyway.

Speaker 5 (01:00:54):
Fair and fair enough are Williams to this for I
think Trent Williams is like he's legiting me. Haunted a
lot of defensive players and a lot of players on
that side of it.

Speaker 1 (01:01:07):
I bet yeah, that's a good one too, isn't it interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:01:10):
I'm glad you brought those names up because I think
certain words and this word's scary. We immediately associate positions, yeah,
with certain positions, right, and you're giving us quarterbacks, you're
giving us tackles guys who play different positions that we
probably wouldn't have thought of.

Speaker 1 (01:01:29):
So it's a really good one.

Speaker 3 (01:01:30):
I like to Marshawn Lynch and if we're talking, just
one game that Kenneth Walker, one that that Braylan highlighted
last week.

Speaker 4 (01:01:38):
One performance I love.

Speaker 5 (01:01:41):
The first time I met him was just he's been
the same person as the very first time I met him.
He came to Cleveland on a visit. You know, you
take the business to see if this is gonna be
a team that drafts. You do all the things, meet
the players, meet the coach, and you talk. I was
walking through Maria was walking through the facility. I'm walking
on my way to the training room. He's walking out
of the locker room which is across the hall towards me,

(01:02:03):
and he sees me and he's like.

Speaker 4 (01:02:05):
Oh, man, man, man, it's Berlin.

Speaker 10 (01:02:11):
Man.

Speaker 4 (01:02:11):
You you the wide out from the wide out for Michigan. Man,
it's Berlin.

Speaker 5 (01:02:15):
I was like, it's bralin, but what's going on? So
he wanted to play that He's like, man, I want
to I want to get down with you. I like
what you and Kelln doing.

Speaker 4 (01:02:24):
Blah blah blah. Got a chance to play on the
same team later in life. But when I got to Seattle.

Speaker 1 (01:02:30):
Ship, oh man, it's Berlin.

Speaker 4 (01:02:34):
Years later, five years later I was.

Speaker 5 (01:02:36):
It was seven for me, five years later for him,
I still was Berlin. So you know what, sh I'll
let you call me blin you.

Speaker 4 (01:02:45):
Some people was just different like you.

Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
You got it. We don't have to change the logo
or anything, do we. Okay? I just want to make sure.

Speaker 11 (01:02:51):
Are you gonna intro the and the show with the
Berlin show?

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
Oh man, I'm telling you, this guy does really good impressions.

Speaker 4 (01:03:00):
Try a little something, man, can you stand up?

Speaker 10 (01:03:04):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:03:04):
Would you ever consider it?

Speaker 4 (01:03:05):
I did it once? Oh did you out in La?
I did like a like a two minute spot.

Speaker 1 (01:03:09):
Okay, it was cool.

Speaker 9 (01:03:11):
It was a dare.

Speaker 4 (01:03:12):
I was nervous as hell, Yeah I was. I was
a friend of mine's wedding.

Speaker 5 (01:03:17):
And then he performed like that night, like he was
getting into acting in the whole nine yard.

Speaker 4 (01:03:22):
So he went up and did a bit.

Speaker 5 (01:03:23):
But I was cracking jokes at the table, and they
was he set me up and they called my name.
You know they call your name, you can't not go.

Speaker 1 (01:03:31):
So what was your material?

Speaker 4 (01:03:33):
I did a bit about being old now at thirty seven.

Speaker 5 (01:03:38):
I think I was thirty seven at the time, and
I was talking about how like my career is over
and it's different. So I go to the club, which
is One Oak, and when I used to go to
One Oak back in the day, you know, like I
get my table. You know, the girls are coming around,
I have my boys, bottle service. Everybody's having a good
time with partying, like this is the hot spot. So
this is when I'm in my prime. This is when
I'm in the league.

Speaker 4 (01:03:58):
I'm that guy. Fast forward. I'm out there at One
Oak in l A thirty seven. I haven't played in
a couple of years.

Speaker 5 (01:04:04):
You know what I'm saying, I'm not trying to get
the table for forty people trying to spend that.

Speaker 4 (01:04:07):
I got like a nice little table. You know what
I'm saying. I do one bottle. I don't need all
that at this point.

Speaker 5 (01:04:12):
And so it's some girls over there and like the
then like the bottle service girl comes takes my order.

Speaker 4 (01:04:19):
I see girls like migrating around the area.

Speaker 1 (01:04:21):
I was in.

Speaker 4 (01:04:22):
Then it starts to get full. I'm like, yeah, that boy,
that boy back, I said.

Speaker 10 (01:04:26):
You know, I knew.

Speaker 5 (01:04:27):
I Still I didn't realize Odell Beckham was right next
to me. Everybody was coming over to kick with OBJ
and this is right when he's in the end zone
doing all this.

Speaker 4 (01:04:36):
This is around that time. So I'm like, damn, I
am old. I am watched, I said, I said, be careful, man,
it happens fast. That was kind of like my bit.
It was just about being old. It was on the
spot though, on the spot.

Speaker 1 (01:04:50):
Where the reviews received.

Speaker 4 (01:04:53):
I didn't get a stand in the ovation. I got
a couple of clues.

Speaker 1 (01:04:56):
Get booed, and you didn't get that.

Speaker 4 (01:04:57):
All I say either, So all I cared about.

Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
I'm saying, man, what was Were there crickets on some
lines or no?

Speaker 4 (01:05:05):
The bit was so short that I don't believe I
gave them a chance to give me chrits. You guys know,
I talked fast. I can admit that I speed through.

Speaker 5 (01:05:12):
Words and sentences, and I think I was doing that.
So by the time I got to the punchline, it
was like, okay, well it was good enough that we
appreciate you go back and sit down. So it was
I don't think I could do that.

Speaker 1 (01:05:29):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:05:29):
I don't have a problem getting in front of a
microphone or talking in front of people, talking from the camera, but.

Speaker 1 (01:05:32):
Comedy I couldn't.

Speaker 2 (01:05:33):
Yeah, comedy is different in the sense well, a lot
of times the bright lights are there, you can't see
people out there.

Speaker 1 (01:05:39):
And funny enough, That's what I'm saying, Like.

Speaker 4 (01:05:42):
That's the hard part is like what's funny to this audience?

Speaker 1 (01:05:44):
Right?

Speaker 4 (01:05:45):
Because it was funny to me? And maybe I can
I know you. I know how to make Sep laugh.
I can make Ryan laugh.

Speaker 5 (01:05:50):
I can make kool aid ladder to get up here
and make these strangers laugh, Like what if they don't
like that joke? If it was I don't really know
who he is, so I don't really get the oldness
of a.

Speaker 4 (01:05:57):
Football player, like damn missed the jokes?

Speaker 1 (01:06:03):
Uh cool, lady, have you ever done anything like that?
You know what? Man?

Speaker 3 (01:06:06):
I remember the first time I pops he was a performer,
the first time he put me on stage. I always
were going on stage to do instruments. I could do that,
but this time he wanted to be to sing with
his group and I had one part, but he was like, look,
I need you to at least move your mouth until
you get to that part. And then seeing your part,
and the lights came on, the music came on, and
I stood there the whole time, like, and you can

(01:06:29):
start to.

Speaker 4 (01:06:29):
Hear people like, you know, the crowd. I was younger
than he's so cute. I'm like, I don't want to
be cute.

Speaker 9 (01:06:35):
I want to be on point.

Speaker 3 (01:06:37):
I want to be a performer man. But when it
got to my apartment, I made sure I stuck it.
But definitely that was the first time that I got
on the stage. I might have been maybe like ten eleven.
I actually sing, I'd get young.

Speaker 1 (01:06:48):
I give you a credit for going up there in
the first place. Ryan have ever done a stand up
at all?

Speaker 3 (01:06:52):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (01:06:53):
No, I performed in a couple of like school plays before.
That's not it. We we have a fesbian in the building. No,
those middle school is a class I had to take.

Speaker 7 (01:07:04):
And I had to.

Speaker 11 (01:07:06):
And I had I had to hug myself, well, somebody
has to. I had to hug myself. I had a
tapleate on my I was like a glow up thing
or something. I had to hug myself to turn it on,
and it didn't turn on when.

Speaker 4 (01:07:19):
I hugged myself.

Speaker 1 (01:07:20):
He's hugged himself harder.

Speaker 4 (01:07:21):
I was like and and the.

Speaker 11 (01:07:24):
Like the thirty kids. I don't remember, but I was like,
the thirty kids are watching, I can't do it. And
I was like, God, damn it, just like this.

Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
I was like.

Speaker 11 (01:07:36):

We will I will say this with without a doubt. Braylan,
that was one of the nicest guys I know. I mean,
I mean, he's he is, he's he's thinking of other
people all the time. So I told him, I gotta
go out to dinner tonight with a group of people
in a different line of work. And he's like, where
you're going? So I told him where you're going? And
I said, what should I get there? He goes, you

(01:15:03):
should get this steak. You got grapes, potatoes, they got
lobster biss. I'm like, oh, I'm not a I don't
like lobster biss, but you know, maybe I'll recommend it
to somebody else.

Speaker 1 (01:15:14):
He goes, everything's really good.

Speaker 7 (01:15:15):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:15:15):
The broccolini that looked at him, who tells somebody to
order broccolini.

Speaker 4 (01:15:24):
If you're going to go to a steakhouse at chop House,
which I recommend in ann Arbor.

Speaker 5 (01:15:28):
They're one of the best in the country. Like this
high note, like I've had it in college when I
was there and once he events did all the things before.
Your palette is mature and you know who you are
and what you like to eat.

Speaker 4 (01:15:39):
Winter around. Then get drafted.

Speaker 5 (01:15:40):
You go to New York, you go all places five
years of that, and you're traveling and eating some of
the best surfing turf.

Speaker 4 (01:15:46):
This restaurant is this. Did you know this restaurant has
a Michelin start? Did you understand? Blah blah blah?

Speaker 5 (01:15:51):
Come back to an Arbor and it's still better than
all these places you told them. Really so it's a
logits spot, but you got to get a steak.

Speaker 4 (01:15:58):
It's sides come with it. So I gave you a
couple of obss on his side. The company.

Speaker 1 (01:16:03):
I really appreciate the broccolini killed me, Like he said,
the caesar salad's really good. Now, I said, oh, that's
that sounds good. So steak potato salad Broccolini's really good.

Speaker 4 (01:16:17):
Something about that crunch. Get a good crunch. How about that.

Speaker 1 (01:16:23):
I know people who like that. Not not yours truly,
but I do know people who like that.

Speaker 2 (01:16:29):
Brian Branch is back for the Lions this weekend against Minnesota.

Speaker 10 (01:16:34):
UH.

Speaker 2 (01:16:35):
Folks who have covered this team on a regular basis
have tweeted out and put on social media some of
the interviews that they've had with Brian Branch, and he said,
first and foremost could not watch the game he was
suspended for Tampa. Whether you were hurt or whatever situation

(01:16:56):
may be, were you ever in that situation, I can't
I can't watch the team.

Speaker 1 (01:16:59):
I can't watch my team.

Speaker 5 (01:17:01):
Yeah, I tore him ACL in two thousand and five,
my rookie year with the Browns. It was any game,
which is my mom's birthday, scored two touchdowns. I like,
this was like the coming out party in Cleveland. All right,
maybe there's something here in Cleveland.

Speaker 4 (01:17:14):
Get hurt. This makes sense, it's Cleveland.

Speaker 5 (01:17:17):
And then in that space there are four games left
in the year. I couldn't watch because we were a
bad team, has a bad record. The team wasn't good.
I wasn't out there.

Speaker 4 (01:17:26):
And then when you're in those spaces, so there was
nothing I could have done about how I got injured
or how I came down on leg.

Speaker 5 (01:17:31):
But in my mind, it's my fault, my fault. I'm
not out there. I want to be out there, so
I couldn't turn in. I can't watch this or watch
that team. Yeah, I didn't watch it all.

Speaker 1 (01:17:41):
That's interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:17:43):
So Brian Branch is in the same club. He said,
the reserves in the secondary played better than the starters,
which immediately makes me go, watch How do you know
if you didn't watch the game.

Speaker 1 (01:17:56):
But I think that's so that's obvious from the the
film work that he's watched.

Speaker 4 (01:18:01):
He has to watch that film, yes, has to watch
it on Sunday Mondays.

Speaker 1 (01:18:06):
Yeah. The other thing he said is, uh, he was
thrilled with seeing all his teammates were a number thirty two,
which I thought was really cool.

Speaker 9 (01:18:15):
I love that.

Speaker 1 (01:18:16):
So anyway, Brian Branch is back. It's great news. Lines
are back.

Speaker 5 (01:18:20):
You know what, I hope from that moment, ship and
I know you have more, but just in that snapshot,
I hope he pays attention to that.

Speaker 4 (01:18:26):
What pay Brian Branch? He said he loved as teammates
wars Jersey correct, it's going solidarity for their brother, right.

Speaker 5 (01:18:32):
I hope he pays attention because this said, his team
feels about you. Correct, So this is how you have
to operate moving forward like this isn't to go back
to that, and we're past that, and he is too,
but he has to remember that because this team cares
about you, this team respects you, this team loves you,
this team needs you. So to see your teammates do
the jersey thing when it was essentially could have been
your fault, pay attention to that. Lock into that, well,

(01:18:56):
said Locke, don't let don't let those guys down.

Speaker 1 (01:18:58):
I love that well to coin a phrase from, you know,
wedding crashers. Lock it up, So lock that all right?

Speaker 2 (01:19:07):
You know how I've felt sometimes about the NFL. And
we love watching football, could watch it every single night,
literally college or pro. But I do believe there's a
lot of hypocrisy in the National Football League, including how
much they care about their players. And I've said this
at nauseam for decades. All right, but Carson Wentz is
a tough sobing. I know quarterbacks aren't always viewed as

(01:19:31):
that way back in the day, Joe Capp was, George
Blanda was because he played linebacker, played on both sides
of the ball football. Yeah, but Carson Wentz is a
tough dude. In case people don't know, he suffered a
shoulder injury in the first half of Week five in London.

(01:19:51):
To remember, they were playing the Browns. They were in London,
and he had that kind of problem. He gutted it
out for two and a half more not quarters, two
and a half more games. He was in obvious pain.
That's such a great shot that Ryan and kool Aid
put up there, because that's exactly what he looked like

(01:20:11):
last week when you and I talked via text, the
Vikings are derelict in their duty for keeping Yes, I
said duty in keeping him in keeping him in the game.
It's flat out wrong. So you're not going to win
that game. That's one thing why in the world you
don't go. What's the point of having Max Brosman as

(01:20:34):
your backup quarterback?

Speaker 1 (01:20:35):
Who?

Speaker 2 (01:20:35):
Max Brosman? University of Minnesota? Sorry, what's the point of
having him as a backup? This is I mean, this
danger is he's at the end of his career, but
still danger is somebody's career. What they did there, I
know it's not his throwing arm. I mean that could
have long term effects. Shame on the Minnesota Vikings, Shame
on Kevin O'Connell, and shame on the National Football.

Speaker 1 (01:20:57):
League for not doing something.

Speaker 2 (01:20:59):
About We've got people officiating looking at film over and
over and over again and then calling up players and
saying you're fined because you had a late hit. Here,
we're trying to protect the quarterbacks from people like Miles Garrett.
How about protecting the quarterbacks from their own coaches, from
their own organization. And I've got no affinity toward Carson Wentz.

(01:21:24):
I don't know him from Adam. My form of the
problem is that this league preaches we care about our players,
we believe about the safety of the players, and they
don't do anything about the turf on which they play.
And putting a man in this type of situation where
he could be long term effects with his shoulder, its

(01:21:45):
flat out wrong.

Speaker 4 (01:21:47):
I'll start by here because I know it's about to
be incoming. Is at the end of the day, it's
up to Carson Wins to say I can't play, I
can't go. It's up for him to talk to the manager,
the training staff, the doctors, and the head coach. That's
what you get.

Speaker 5 (01:22:00):
That's what a lot of people are going to say,
and that's fine. The problem is that's just not the
human condition. The human condition for Carson Wentz, former quarterback,
which in the year that they won the Super Bowl,
he was legitimate front runner for MVP at that time,
he's front runner for MVP. He gets hurt, they're still
going to win the Super Bowl in certain nick foles

(01:22:21):
And ever since that season, he's been chasing that place,
in that status that he had on his way to
do with Josh Allen, since he did two small school,
small time quarterbacks ascend to the next level when they
take off, he's been trying to find that moment and
he hasn't been successful. So now he has an opportunity
in Minnesota, Minnesota Vikings with this skill set, what this
team did last year, with their believing that he can

(01:22:44):
maybe help them do he's trying to deliver that for them.

Speaker 4 (01:22:48):
He is trying to do all he can.

Speaker 5 (01:22:49):
Also, while he's trying to change the narrative about him,
he's trying to have you look at him. He knows
you guys don't view him in a certain light, don't
see him a certain way or he's not this, he's
not that, So he's looking for it.

Speaker 4 (01:23:02):
He's searching for it.

Speaker 5 (01:23:03):
So him telling the trainers that my shoulders jacked up,
my tricep is jacked up, my ankle is jacked up.

Speaker 4 (01:23:09):
I need to sit out. We're not built like that.

Speaker 5 (01:23:12):
That's not what he's trying to do. He's not trying
to be Anthony Richardson. So you have to protect him
from himself. You know what this guy is dealing with,
the problem is he's not your guy. Menso the Vikers
didn't draft him quest qusty Mensa.

Speaker 4 (01:23:27):
Like, he didn't drift him. He's not his guy. He
didn't bring him in here.

Speaker 5 (01:23:30):
He didn't have any expectations for who and what Carson
Wentz can provide. So to Chef's point, this is when
the NFL steps in. They don't step on in the broadcast,
they don't step in during the game. This is when
you have that call, come to that locker room and say, hey,
look that guy's banged up. Get him out of here,
or there will be some problems. There will be you know,
maybe some fines or some things or something serious. Why

(01:23:53):
that guy's back up, Just like Hendon Hooker was our
backup because it's an aesthetic thing. Drafted him, will make
him the backup.

Speaker 4 (01:24:01):
He looks good in the.

Speaker 5 (01:24:02):
Back of a road when he needed a backup. Hey,
Teddy still playing football? Are you still around? So it's
more of aesthetic thing.

Speaker 2 (01:24:09):
But this, Yeah, doctors are taking guys out for concussions
because they're trying to look out for that.

Speaker 4 (01:24:14):
And that's it.

Speaker 2 (01:24:15):
Yeah, and the and the league is sitting there finding
Brian Dable for going into the blue tent. It's fine
because you're not a huge fan anyway. I don't understand
why you can't. If you can call al Michaels on
a Sunday night game and say, knock it off with
him missing a kick, will record because it hit one
of the camera wires. You know that happened. They didn't

(01:24:37):
call al Michaels. They called the truck though, they called
the TV truck. And then they related to al Michaels
doing me a kulpa here they can get involved in
something like this. I thought it was flat out wrong
and bush league on the part of the National Football League,
just like it is when the commissioners.

Speaker 5 (01:24:50):
Stand like a lot of like and look, Kevin's a
former teammate, Kevin's former teammate that I might see Tuesday
or at least on the stream for you know what.
But Kevin Connin, like, some responsibility goes on you. I understand,
this isn't your guy. You didn't draft him. He's not
Sam Donald, he's not Jay Z McCarthy. But guys out
there putting on the line for you, man, you can't
go anymore. Like we all anybody that watched his Vikings game,

(01:25:13):
every single play, it just like every single play seemed
like the last play or it should be the last play.
Even I watched that game against Cleveland, there was some
when that happened because he was actually operating decently as
a quarterback.

Speaker 4 (01:25:28):
And then when that moment happened, he's been struggling and everything.

Speaker 2 (01:25:31):
They were saying it during the broadcast, when it says
obvious to the broadcasters as it would be, you know,
coaches and players all recognize it too. So I'm glad
we're on the same page, all right. When we come back,
we'll get to the mail bag. We got some super chats.
We want to get to anything that might be on
your mind and the world of our discussion or maybe not.
Sometimes you help us with this show and coming up

(01:25:52):
with some pretty good ideas to discuss as well as
we roll on on a Tuesday afternoon here on the
Brailen Edwards Show, but first from black Rock Tuesday.

Speaker 5 (01:26:01):
Perfect time to go to black Rock and try out
that steaking lobster the limited, limited time only. I promise
you I'm gonna come up here one day, very soon
and there will no longer be steaking lobster and you're
going to be kicking yourself, So don't kick yourself.

Speaker 4 (01:26:14):
Don't get it nineteen ninety nine. The price point is
the real deal. A deal is hot. Like you said,
it won't last that long. Also, Breadlen's Beef is still
on the menu twenty outs New York strip. Pull up
on that.

Speaker 5 (01:26:24):

a seven hundred fifty five three volcanic rock fish and
chips and just overall vibe and atmosphere black Rock bron Gris,
whereas at all of them sizzle, they sizzle above the rest.

you get free advertised, So pull up on them for

bear hunting season and ten Kimble is hungry for some kneecaps.

A quick trivia question for you, and then we'll get
to the chats, the super chats, and of course the
mailbag ready pretty easy. Well, it's not easy, but it's
pretty simple. I'm going to give you something that only
one player has ever done in NBA history. Okay, one,
they were Rookie of the Year, they were Most Valuable

(01:29:34):
Player same year. Nope, Okay, they were a Finals MVP. Okay,
they were an All Star MVP. They were Coach of
the Year and Executive of the year. One player has
done it in the history of the sport. Rookie of
the Year, MVP, Finals, MVP, All Star m v P,

(01:30:01):
Coach of the Year, and Executive of the Year.

Speaker 9 (01:30:04):
One.

Speaker 1 (01:30:06):
It's not easy.

Speaker 2 (01:30:07):
I'll give you a hint. Played on one of the
most storied franchises in the history of the sport.

Speaker 4 (01:30:12):
All right, so he's played for the Lake I mean Celtics.

Speaker 1 (01:30:15):
But I said one of I didn't say which one.

Speaker 4 (01:30:17):
Yeah, but when you say coach, okay, and.

Speaker 1 (01:30:21):
Then I would say you you you were all of
us Ryan might be too young. All of us watched
him play.

Speaker 4 (01:30:33):
The m v P part is when I'm trying to
figure out who the f was m v P.

Speaker 9 (01:30:38):
MM hmm.

Speaker 1 (01:30:39):
I think that's the easiest part. I think the hardest
part was Executive of the Year.

Speaker 11 (01:30:44):
See Kevin McHale, he's only coaching.

Speaker 4 (01:30:49):
I guess see, your mind went exactly where I was
at my Celtics. Gotta be to carry over.

Speaker 5 (01:30:55):
Figure out Danny Yames, No, Kevin mchill No, we all
it wouldn't have been them. Did he win with Golden
State somehow?

Speaker 4 (01:31:08):
Mm hmm, I'm over it.

Speaker 1 (01:31:12):
Larry Bird?

Speaker 3 (01:31:13):
Wow, yeah, mazed up in the chat, got it right,
he said, I said everything, but Larry Bird.

Speaker 1 (01:31:20):
I thought for sure you were going Larry Bird. But
what held you up? Because he won three m vps.

Speaker 4 (01:31:25):
Well, it's not the m v P.

Speaker 5 (01:31:27):
It's the fact I forgot that he coached in Indianapolis, right,
I forgot the coaching in Indianapolis.

Speaker 1 (01:31:32):
I remember the coaching. I forgot the executive part.

Speaker 4 (01:31:35):
Well, I remember. It's funny.

Speaker 5 (01:31:37):
I remember the exactive part because because most notably Isaiah
had to work for him, So I remember the executive
I forgot that.

Speaker 4 (01:31:46):
I'm an idiot.

Speaker 1 (01:31:47):
No, I mean, I mean it's Look, that's not easy.

Speaker 4 (01:31:50):
It's not.

Speaker 1 (01:31:50):
But one guy's done it.

Speaker 2 (01:31:52):
I mean I would have needed a lot I wouldn't
have gotten it without some plenty of hints. Once once
I said one of the more story franchise, I thought
you might go Akers, but.

Speaker 4 (01:32:01):
I knew it was Celtics.

Speaker 5 (01:32:02):
Laders don't have coaches like that unless you were to go,
who's the guy Jerry, unless you go to logo start
trying to like.

Speaker 2 (01:32:11):
Find Jerry West. Jerry West. Jerry West is MVP. Jerry
West was Finals MVP. Jerry West was an Executive of
the Year. I don't know if he was ever coach
of the year because.

Speaker 5 (01:32:22):
He coached very quickly. Yeah, it was like that year
and a half when he was coached, then he was fired.
Then it was like they need him in spots and
then field to go.

Speaker 1 (01:32:29):
It's a good one, huh.

Speaker 4 (01:32:30):
I knew it was Celtics. I just can't believe I
forget it.

Speaker 2 (01:32:32):
So now you guys can use that at the next
party you're at and have a great time and then
just do the mic drop and leave. Let's get to
the super chats and any mail bag before we're out
of here.

Speaker 3 (01:32:43):
On Tuesday, Michael Werry number one crowned amongst the fans
today in our chat super Chat says, let's get Bray
into the college and and the Big ten Hall of Fame.

Speaker 2 (01:32:57):
Look, I've said this about the college and didn't mean
to make him, you know, a little uncomfortable. But it's
about three weeks ago or so.

Speaker 1 (01:33:05):
I had this long soliloquy on that that very same thing,
and I don't understand how it can't be to be
honest with the college Football Hall of Fame. To me
is it's a no brainer. I don't get it, and
I don't know what they're doing, but there they should
be watching the show.

Speaker 5 (01:33:22):
I'll say this. Look, man, it's on God's time. At
this point, I've said it, I've come, you know, I've
gotten everything out. I understand how it's on God's sign.
When it happens that it happened. The only thing that
you get you get reminded and nervous about Chef is
look what happened on Sunday. Yeah, this is one of
So it's like, I want to make sure that I'm
here to to receive it, and I don't want to

(01:33:42):
be posthumously. You know, I don't want my family there
representing me. I would like to represent myself with my family.

Speaker 2 (01:33:49):
But it's not just that it's it's it's about being deserved, okay,
and it is deserved so class at on top of that, absolutely,
and thank you for doing that in the chat. The
other thing, I know there's a lot of people let
me just say this real quick, because I saw this
on social media last night. I know there's a lot
of people who are not fans of Patrick Mahomes. I
like him, but the chiefs and all that other stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:34:11):
Did the NFL ruin that or did the media ruin that?
Or is it elements of him as well?

Speaker 9 (01:34:16):
Well it could.

Speaker 2 (01:34:16):
I mean you and I we've had this discussion before
about Arch Manning about the hype and I said, it's
not on him, and you say it's the family and
all this other stuff. Well, it's the same thing with
Patrick Mahomes. When you're doing commercials on a regular basis
for various things, you are bringing that attention on your own.
I don't have a problem with him. I like him
a lot, but not just because I think he's a
great player and a Hall of Fame player. I like

(01:34:37):
him because of who he stands for. Last night, there
was a little girl who was suffering. It appeared to
be like she was suffering from some type of illness.
I don't want to reach too far because I don't know.
But all the Kansas City players are going through and
giving her five.

Speaker 1 (01:34:52):
Just on the sideline.

Speaker 2 (01:34:54):
Patrick Mahomes stops Ben's over, gets down to her level,
which is really important, and grabs a football and signs it.
And her father's in the background, and he puts his
hands in his face and he's almost in tears. You
know this better than we do. But the impact you

(01:35:15):
can make on young people when you're at that level,
whether you want to believe you're a role model or not,
is pretty special. And I thought he took it to
a wonderful level. And I thought it was pretty awesome.
And it's not enough of those stories are told all
the time. She wasn't wearing his number, She's just wearing
a Chief's jersey. And he goes down and he signs

(01:35:36):
the ball. It was fantastic and it really warms my heart.
All right, go ahead, oh forever. And by the way,
he will never do anything wrong in her eyes? And
why would she go ahead? Kool aid?

Speaker 1 (01:35:48):
Sorry about that?

Speaker 4 (01:35:49):
No, no, no problem at all.

Speaker 3 (01:35:50):
I thought it was a definitely great commentary. But we
do have some comments and questions from the chat about
the Lion's next opponent.

Speaker 4 (01:35:58):
We bring it up here. It is it's from Randall Small.
It's just his mailbag.

Speaker 3 (01:36:02):
If JJ McCarthy is starting against the Lions, does Calvin
Shepherd keep us in the zone or blitz the heck
out of him?

Speaker 4 (01:36:09):
Now, you bring the house. I mean to be honest,
you really don't have to, but I was just gonna
say that you don't have to. You don't have to,
but if you're trying to.

Speaker 5 (01:36:17):
Get the game up over early and put them in
a situation to where they're trailing and because their tackles
are down, the tackles are depleted. Now you're bringing jay
Z and understand he's still trying to figure it out
as a young quarterback. This is essentially his rookie year. Yeah,
you don't have to bring the house. But if I
was just trying to get the game over early, I would.

Speaker 2 (01:36:37):
It's a good question, though, absolutely really good question. We
always get good questions here on The Raylin Edward Show.
Are thanks to for you to take the time to
spend with us on a Tuesday afternoon always means a
lot to us.
