Speaker 1 (00:05):
Aaron Rodgers of course making all the headlines for the
NFL right now. Obviously we had voluntary OTAs, we had
Kirk Cousins not showing up in Atlanta. We've had a
couple other players not showing up again voluntary, these aren't mandatory,
and a couple Facebook chime in friends are our official
photographer of the Fanatics, Tony Morano. He is actually checking
(00:26):
in from the Almaldome. He said there's no rain there tie,
no rain, no zero percent chance of rain from.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Alimaldo at the almal Dome.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
So Tony has been feeling it from everybody in the
comments over the break.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Yeah, yeah, it's tough being right, that's tie everybody, Ty Sujik.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Yeah, he's great.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
We talk about with.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Aaron Ryders how he has been essentially irrelevance is twenty
eleven or twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Sorry, he's never been in my kid. He's just a
mediocre quarterback. I was gonna talk to you guys about this. This
is how I feel about him, and I'm gonna say this,
This dude loved Brett Farv loves him so much. He's
trying to follow the same path as him. Let's be
real about this the way he is, right, the dude
wins one championship, okay, one?
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Right?
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
So how is he a great quarterback? Somebody tell me
how he's a great quarterback. And I love the fact
that from the Facebook family that Bubba Stanley has checked
in because he is a die hard Pittsburgh Steeler fan.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
So Baba, listen up.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Can I smart type you don't mind?
Speaker 3 (01:28):
I know you're a Browns fan, so I know you
got some heat for the Steelers, but I got heap
for Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
So if you don't mind, go ahead, Shane.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Aaron Rodgers ain't been the face of the League of
twenty thirteen for a while, from two thousand and eight
when he took over Brett Farr, when he took over
Brett far as the full time starter up until twenty thirteen,
the year he I think he missed like seven of
those games that was in between what you called the
Brady slump oh seven with the Super Bowl in which
they had undefe the season they lost to the Giants,
and he didn't win one again until they beat the
until they beat the Seahawks in that dramatic game where
(01:57):
they didn't give the ball to be smart at the
goal line, and in between that time, people were wondering
if Tom Brady had lost it. So Aaron Rodgers had
at that point won three MVP or sorry, two MVPs,
he had won a Super Bowl, and they had crowned
him as the best quarterback in the league. That was
also around the time frame in which Peyton Manning had
left Indianapolis and he was going into Denver, so people.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Were wondering how much longer he had.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
So Aaron Rodgers was the face the league for that time,
but over time his image has deteriorated, and since twenty
twenty one, the last three seasons he has been relevant
based on his name alone. Obviously, in twenty twenty three
he missed the majority of the season, and twenty twenty
two he played the entire He did not look himself.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
He was under sixty five percent complete.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
But he blames everybody else.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
He blames somebody else. Yeah, and last year they were
five and twelve.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
I get the Jets roster is whatever, But he also
helped form that roster because he wanted certain guys.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
He wanted Devonte Adams.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
He wanted these guys, he wanted his his play call
I forgot his name the offensive coordinator for the Jets
at that time. So he is doing the same thing,
and sorry, Ty, he's doing the same thing that Lebron
did in Miami and in Cleveland and in LA in
which he formulated the roster to fit what he needed
per what he needs.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Has not been on the best for the team.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
But the difference between what Lebron has done and what
Aaron has done, Lebron brings winning to it. Okay, So like, yeah,
I do not like when Lebron does his whole thing.
And I remember when pat Riley told him, Hey, I
just need you to play basketball.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I'm not getting rid of Spolstra now.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Spoltstra is now the longest active coach in the NBA
with his tenure.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
But back to Aaron Rodgers, I'm over it, and I think.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
The Pittsburgh Steeler fans and also alumni are getting tired
of it.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Now.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Rogers will tell you, well, the Steelers haven't given me
a timetable as to what decision needs to be made.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Right.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
So he's he's holding, he's holding, he's holding. I don't
and I want to go to Tomlin, Ty. I want
to go to the coach that we say this all
the time. Now in the NFL, you know, there's three
things you can't avoid death taxes and the Steelers at
least being in the playoffs, the consistency that has come
from Pittsburgh. But now the clown show that is coming
(04:00):
with Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers. When does Tomlin speak
up here? When does Tomlin say, hey, get your butt
to practice, get your butt to sign?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Does he care? He never will?
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Did you guys watch that hard Knocks last year if
Theyfceen North in season?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
I watched some of it.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
So Tomlin prided himself off And I'm I'm a huge
Tomlin fan an advocate. Yes, do I not like the Steelers,
but I will You'll never hear me say a bad
word about Mike Tomlin because I would trade the world
for Mike Tomlin.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Would. Yeah, I'm saying so like, I will never say
anything bad about Mike Tomlin. Mike Tomlin. That being said,
Mike Tomlin is a player's coach.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Aaron Rodgers is not his player yet, so he's not
gonna speak on it. And how you've never seen Mike
Tomlin go out and talk about another guy that's not
on his team unless he's given him praise. Right, That's
just what Tomlin does. So you know Tomlin's not gonna
give this any energy. But the truth around the situation
is that Mason Rudolph is the starting quarterback for the
Pittsburgh Seels right now.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
You like that guy? Yeah, he definitely, he definitely said
what he thought he said to Miles Garrett.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Went when the NFL said they would not release the audio.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Of what he definitely, he definitely said what we thought
he said, especially after where he spent this week and
we're not even getting to that where he spent this week.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
He confirmed, Wow, Wow.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
He's got time today.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Yeah, I'm gonna be eating tacos today, I'll tell you
that much.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
So, but they don't have a real I mean, well Howard,
I'm high on him, but he's not ready yet, know
what I'm saying. Like, I'm high. I'm high on Will
Howard in that Steeler system, let's put that way. I
think fit makes a difference. I think Will Howard that
Steelar system I'm high on. But you got to give
a couple of years.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
And Bubba, who is a he's a diehard Steeler fan.
He's in here and he puts in all caps, no
one wants Rogers.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
No one.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
But but unfortunately the way the things that played out,
unless they trade for Kirk.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Cousins, that might be the best thing to do.
Speaker 5 (05:51):
Yeah, you know, unless they trade for Kirk Cousins, you
don't have any options. Or you can wait and you
can try your hand at Jameis Winston. That's actually a
good idea, you know. So there are some options there. Uh,
And I think Rogers is trying to the issue a
troll at this point.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Let's be honest.
Speaker 5 (06:07):
He loves it. He also thinks he's smarter than everyone else.
He's he's that guy that has to be the smartest
guy in the room.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
And he is.
Speaker 5 (06:15):
The smartest guy in the room by himself. Yes, and
it's to his own detriment at times. So I think
he thinks he's waiting out knowing that the Steelers will
be there. Yeah, but he didn't realize steel the Steelers
are his only option. And the longer he waits, the
more the Steelers are looking at other options. Because we've
talked about the Steelers were talking about making moves for
I think I believe Juwan Johnson.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
You know, they're rebuilding.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Yeah, they're rebuilding, so they're they're looking at adding new
pieces no matter what position they are.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
They talked about talk getting Dylan's Chris Olave from the Saints.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
You know, here's the thing too, Chris Chris Caster says
the Steelers are rebuilding, which we were just saying, but
he doesn't see Rogers being on that team.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
On a rebuilding team.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
I would I see Rogers being there because I I
he has nowhere else to go.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
He has nowhere else to go.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
And Rogers has too much of an ego in my
opinion to not be on a team.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Look, if he was like Tom Brady, I would understand
the deepness. Okay, Tom Brady's one of those quarterbacks, right.
Aaron Rodgers has always been this kid baby at this
point that has you know, whined and everything else like that.
And you know, yeah, he got that Super Bowl ring
with Green Bay? What did he do with New York?
Shane told you he went what six and twenty four over?
(07:23):
Because I obviously that about one year, six and twelve,
you know, and this is a quarterback that was great,
you know, and this was a quarterback that fought his
way out of Green Bay Towards the end, he started
making headlines.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Remember when he wasn't showing up.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Remember he wasn't a team player he was he was
I guess pissed about Adam's going away from Green Bay,
you know, and so I'm just over it.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Like at some point, it's like, dude.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
I would love the Steelers to do what you just said,
you know, all of a sudden, Kirk Cousins not showing
up in Atlanta. You know what, Let's go for Kirk Cousins. Yeah, right,
let's go for a guy that actually wants to play ball.
I don't know if Aaron Rodgers wants to play. And
I'm tired of his crap. Yeah, I'm tired of seeing
these headlines where it's like, oh, Aaron Rodgers has this.
All these major networks are like, oh, where's he gonna go?
(08:13):
Put a tracker on him?
Speaker 3 (08:14):
At this point, unlet's do care if Ty, Let's say
Ty is right about Will Howard. Maybe he has that
sort of like day two, day three quarterback potential of
being a guy who could be started on the line.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah he is.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Not ready right now, we can all agree, right, right,
he is not if you were if you were ready,
they would drafted you earlier.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
If that's the.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Case, then why not, like like like Dylan said, go
after Kirk Cousins because that is a contract that the
Steelers can work with and nothing else. You can bridge
him like that like the Falcons did without him knowing
with Michael Pennix.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Yeah, I you know, I agree. I think that that's
a good move.
Speaker 5 (08:44):
If it comes down to it and it's between Mason
Rudolph and Will Howard, I would honestly gout it out
with Will Howard over Rudolph because Howard has more upside
and also more mobility.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Right, Yes, And a large part of the.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
Offense that steels offense is that qbs are able to
get loose a little bit, you know, Rodgers loose, he doesn't,
you know what I'm saying, But his ball placement is
top tier. And they tried that Russ Russell Wilson last
year and it quite it didn't quite work right. The
wheels fell off with that, so they still got to
the playoffs. He still go And that's you know what
I'm saying. And you're right about Tomalin.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Tomlin takes that crap show and puts it in the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
But you got you got one thing.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
You got you know, you got rid of Pickens, who's
young on a rookie contract and had had some attitude issues.
But yeah, I also insert DK and I don't know
if you ever seen DK when he doesn't get a ball.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Oh, and how he has a passive fire mouth piece
for a reason.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Yeah, And how they have to force slants to him
in Seattle to even when they do force slants, he
doesn't care about getting first downs.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
He just wants the ball. He doesn't care about.
Speaker 5 (09:42):
Touchdowns, first down he wants He just wants the ball, right,
he doesn't he So that's gonna be problem back in itself.
And I worry about a young quarterback being the situation
because Will Howard's going to force the ball right he's
and that's going to create bad habits the ball to
DeKay because he's gonna cry if not.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
You know what move the Steelers were attached to earlier
in the week that actually I think would be a
better move than Sion Naron Rodgers. They were looked at
tradeing for John news Smith, the poor bowl tight end
from the Dogs. You pair him up with Pat Fryarmuth,
who I think we could all respond underrated tight end
in this league, and no matter who your quarterback is,
if you have a guy who has short term or
short area accuracy.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
I've been two good tight ends. It's a good way
to build up their offense.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
They already have two good tight ends.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
You forget they took the Behemoth out of Georgia a
couple of years ago.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
It has a solid tight end too. I would I
would take him at any point.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Yeah, well, now you go thirteen personnel, run three tight ends.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
We'll see what Pittsburgh does.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
But Chris with the I think the statement that he
says here, they do make the playoffs every year, but
they're always one and done, and so I agree with that.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
But like the Wizard of John Paul, I'm gonna give
you a message.
Speaker 5 (10:44):
It's better to be in and be upset than to
not get in and just be nothing true. I understand
that as a Browns fan, like would, I would trade
places with you any day of the week. Also, we
have more championships than you now since they we now
recognize NFL championships along with Super Bowls, so we had
(11:04):
to Yeah, so we we do have more championships team. Now,
so before you got you high horse about that we
are the better team? Wow?
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Are you a better team? At better organization?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Sparking a fire both they just happen to have the
better coaches.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
So with that being said, it's I would still trade
places in modern day with you guys to be in
the playoffs as consistently as you guys have.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
Would you trade with me?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Cowboys fan and we are the same, No, we're not.
We get people hate us more. We are the same people.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
People empathize with the Browns fans and people hate Cowboys fans.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
You're none. We're the same as Dylan.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
He's a Saints fan. He has no reason to hate
either one, and you know he'd preferred I.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Think this is a wonderful conversation for next For.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Next segment, No oh no, I'm putting you guys on
a quiz. You've got some yeah, yeah, yeah, So coming up,
I've been hit with some slang words that the kids
use nowadays, and I'm gonna see if Ty and Shane
know what it all is. That's all next on the
Fanatics on Ticket seven sixty.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Skibbitty
Aaron Rodgers of course making all the headlines for the
NFL right now. Obviously we had voluntary OTAs, we had
Kirk Cousins not showing up in Atlanta. We've had a

Speaker 3 (00:34):
So Tony has been feeling it from everybody in the
comments over the break.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Yeah, yeah, it's tough being right, that's tie everybody, Ty Sujik.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Yeah, he's great.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
We talk about with.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Aaron Ryders how he has been essentially irrelevance is twenty

wins one championship, okay, one?
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Right?
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
So how is he a great quarterback? Somebody tell me
how he's a great quarterback. And I love the fact
that from the Facebook family that Bubba Stanley has checked
in because he is a die hard Pittsburgh Steeler fan.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
So Baba, listen up.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Can I smart type you don't mind?
Speaker 3 (01:28):
I know you're a Browns fan, so I know you

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
So, but they don't have a real I mean, well Howard,
I'm high on him, but he's not ready yet, know
what I'm saying. Like, I'm high. I'm high on Will
Howard in that Steeler system, let's put that way. I
think fit makes a difference. I think Will Howard that
Steelar system I'm high on. But you got to give
a couple of years.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
And Bubba, who is a he's a diehard Steeler fan.
He's in here and he puts in all caps, no
one wants Rogers.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
No one.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
But but unfortunately the way the things that played out,
unless they trade for Kirk.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Cousins, that might be the best thing to do.
Speaker 5 (05:51):

Speaker 5 (06:07):
He loves it. He also thinks he's smarter than everyone else.
He's he's that guy that has to be the smartest
guy in the room.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
And he is.
Speaker 5 (06:15):
The smartest guy in the room by himself. Yes, and
it's to his own detriment at times. So I think
he thinks he's waiting out knowing that the Steelers will
be there. Yeah, but he didn't realize steel the Steelers
are his only option. And the longer he waits, the
more the Steelers are looking at other options. Because we've
talked about the Steelers were talking about making moves for
I think I believe Juwan Johnson.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
You know, they're rebuilding.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Yeah, they're rebuilding, so they're they're looking at adding new
pieces no matter what position they are.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
They talked about talk getting Dylan's Chris Olave from the Saints.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
You know, here's the thing too, Chris Chris Caster says
the Steelers are rebuilding, which we were just saying, but
he doesn't see Rogers being on that team.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
On a rebuilding team.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
I would I see Rogers being there because I I
he has nowhere else to go.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
He has nowhere else to go.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
And Rogers has too much of an ego in my
opinion to not be on a team.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Look, if he was like Tom Brady, I would understand
the deepness. Okay, Tom Brady's one of those quarterbacks, right.
Aaron Rodgers has always been this kid baby at this
point that has you know, whined and everything else like that.
And you know, yeah, he got that Super Bowl ring
with Green Bay? What did he do with New York?
Shane told you he went what six and twenty four over?
(07:23):
Because I obviously that about one year, six and twelve,
you know, and this is a quarterback that was great,
you know, and this was a quarterback that fought his
way out of Green Bay Towards the end, he started
making headlines.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Remember when he wasn't showing up.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Remember he wasn't a team player he was he was
I guess pissed about Adam's going away from Green Bay,
you know, and so I'm just over it.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Like at some point, it's like, dude.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
I would love the Steelers to do what you just said,
you know, all of a sudden, Kirk Cousins not showing
up in Atlanta. You know what, Let's go for Kirk Cousins. Yeah, right,
let's go for a guy that actually wants to play ball.
I don't know if Aaron Rodgers wants to play. And
I'm tired of his crap. Yeah, I'm tired of seeing
these headlines where it's like, oh, Aaron Rodgers has this.
All these major networks are like, oh, where's he gonna go?
(08:13):
Put a tracker on him?
Speaker 3 (08:14):
At this point, unlet's do care if Ty, Let's say
Ty is right about Will Howard. Maybe he has that
sort of like day two, day three quarterback potential of
being a guy who could be started on the line.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah he is.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Not ready right now, we can all agree, right, right,
he is not if you were if you were ready,
they would drafted you earlier.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
If that's the.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Case, then why not, like like like Dylan said, go
after Kirk Cousins because that is a contract that the
Steelers can work with and nothing else. You can bridge
him like that like the Falcons did without him knowing
with Michael Pennix.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Yeah, I you know, I agree. I think that that's
a good move.
Speaker 5 (08:44):
If it comes down to it and it's between Mason
Rudolph and Will Howard, I would honestly gout it out
with Will Howard over Rudolph because Howard has more upside
and also more mobility.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Right, Yes, And a large part of the.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
Offense that steels offense is that qbs are able to
get loose a little bit, you know, Rodgers loose, he doesn't,
you know what I'm saying, But his ball placement is
top tier. And they tried that Russ Russell Wilson last
year and it quite it didn't quite work right. The
wheels fell off with that, so they still got to
the playoffs. He still go And that's you know what
I'm saying. And you're right about Tomalin.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Tomlin takes that crap show and puts it in the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
But you got you got one thing.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
You got you know, you got rid of Pickens, who's
young on a rookie contract and had had some attitude issues.
But yeah, I also insert DK and I don't know
if you ever seen DK when he doesn't get a ball.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Oh, and how he has a passive fire mouth piece
for a reason.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Yeah, And how they have to force slants to him
in Seattle to even when they do force slants, he
doesn't care about getting first downs.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
He just wants the ball. He doesn't care about.
Speaker 5 (09:42):
Touchdowns, first down he wants He just wants the ball, right,
he doesn't he So that's gonna be problem back in itself.
And I worry about a young quarterback being the situation
because Will Howard's going to force the ball right he's
and that's going to create bad habits the ball to
DeKay because he's gonna cry if not.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
You know what move the Steelers were attached to earlier
in the week that actually I think would be a
better move than Sion Naron Rodgers. They were looked at
tradeing for John news Smith, the poor bowl tight end
from the Dogs. You pair him up with Pat Fryarmuth,
who I think we could all respond underrated tight end
in this league, and no matter who your quarterback is,
if you have a guy who has short term or
short area accuracy.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
I've been two good tight ends. It's a good way
to build up their offense.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
They already have two good tight ends.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
You forget they took the Behemoth out of Georgia a
couple of years ago.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
It has a solid tight end too. I would I
would take him at any point.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Yeah, well, now you go thirteen personnel, run three tight ends.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
We'll see what Pittsburgh does.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
But Chris with the I think the statement that he
says here, they do make the playoffs every year, but
they're always one and done, and so I agree with that.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
But like the Wizard of John Paul, I'm gonna give
you a message.
Speaker 5 (10:44):
It's better to be in and be upset than to
not get in and just be nothing true. I understand
that as a Browns fan, like would, I would trade
places with you any day of the week. Also, we
have more championships than you now since they we now
recognize NFL championships along with Super Bowls, so we had
(11:04):
to Yeah, so we we do have more championships team. Now,
so before you got you high horse about that we
are the better team? Wow?
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Are you a better team? At better organization?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Sparking a fire both they just happen to have the
better coaches.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
So with that being said, it's I would still trade
places in modern day with you guys to be in
the playoffs as consistently as you guys have.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
Would you trade with me?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Cowboys fan and we are the same, No, we're not.
We get people hate us more. We are the same people.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
People empathize with the Browns fans and people hate Cowboys fans.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
You're none. We're the same as Dylan.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
He's a Saints fan. He has no reason to hate
either one, and you know he'd preferred I.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Think this is a wonderful conversation for next For.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Next segment, No oh no, I'm putting you guys on
a quiz. You've got some yeah, yeah, yeah, So coming up,
I've been hit with some slang words that the kids
use nowadays, and I'm gonna see if Ty and Shane
know what it all is. That's all next on the
Fanatics on Ticket seven sixty.
