Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's time for our weekly conversation with college football analyst
Petros Papadakas that.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I'm a smart guy, I'm stupid.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Brought to you by Sweet James Accident Attorneys, forty one yards.
If you're hurting an accident, called Sweet James right away
at eight hundred, five hundred and fifty two hundred. Sweet
James will be sweet to you, but tough on insurance
companies that will bully you. But I don't know, buh
(00:29):
Now with Petros Peers Dave's softy moller.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Alrighty, boys and girls, here we go on this Wednesday
before Super Bowl fifty nine.
Speaker 4 (00:40):
Cannot think of a better guy to break it all
down for US.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Kansas City, Philadelphia, Sunday, three thirty. Right here, one of
the most sot after guests and radio former frequent visitor
to Radio Row.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Before he said enough is enough, I went.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Once one damn fine Greek American father of the year,
husband of the month, and our friend Petros Papadoccus brought
to you Bob.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
The one and only Sweet James, the dense beard and
justice he can come through for you. If you've ever
been in a car accident, motorcycle accident, lose your home
and the fire. Sweet James has got everybody in line
and ready twenty four to seven at eight hundred and
nine million. That's eight hundred nine million, or sweet James
dot com.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
You were a one time visitor to Radio row right.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
My radio partner used to go every year, and I'd
kind of lived it through him, but I went.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I only went to New Orleans. I don't miss it
at all. No, no, no, all I've been to No,
I'm sorry. I didn't even go to New Orleans. I
was at a super Bowl in Miami. Got it when
Drew Brees beat Peyton Manning? Right, right, right, yeah, No,
it's a terrible thing because I say this all the time.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Well, I mean the one thing you want to do.
I mean, how long have you held down afternoon drive
in Seattle? Thirteen years? Right, so it's been a while, right,
and you have no signs of slowing down. And that
is that is because why.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
That's what you think. You never know, you never know
you're right saying the wrong turn this. You could be
sodomized by the space needle on your way out.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Hey what happened to Softy?
Speaker 5 (02:20):
But my yeah, my point is, uh, It is a thing.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
That if you have a show for a long time,
it's because you found a way to be unique, probably
or your personality is unique. And the super Bowl media
radio row stuff does not. It just does not promote
that everybody's doing the same interviews, everybody's talking about the
same things, everybody's going to the same places. If you
(02:48):
get into a city like Miami, which is always shocking
to me, I don't know if Seattle is this way,
Los Angeles is not. I mean Los Angeles is so
big that if you have the Olympics here, yeah, people
will probably get in some traffic. But the super Bowl
happens here and nobody notices, you know. I mean the
city absorbs gigantic events two three, four at a time
(03:12):
and and that, and whenever you get into these other cities,
it's gridlocked everywhere.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
I mean you can't get into this part of the
town or that part of the town anyway.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
I hate it. It sucks.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
I hate everybody. Glad I'm not there. Well, I just
know it's funny because this Luca trade, Yes, you know,
it's it's wild. I went on the Morning Show with
Jonas Knox and LeVar Arrington like I do every Wednesday.
And we didn't mention the Super Bowl.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Nobody talked about Kansas City or Travis Kelcey or broadcast
Taylor Swift or Wow Media nine.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Punk Gas Taylor Swift. You're not a big Tate.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Fan, are you? Well? I don't mind her, okay, cool.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Doesn't bother me, as I mean, why does she? Why
tell me? Why?
Speaker 5 (03:56):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
She doesn't bother me?
Speaker 4 (03:58):
She's punk?
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Well, she is a punk. I don't want to hear
because I.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Don't want to hear anybody tell me what a brilliant
musician she is.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
It's terrible.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Next thing you get to tell me is Beyonce's Country
album was the best art and piece of music anybody
put together this year.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Right boy?
Speaker 4 (04:18):
People were pissed about that.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Well, I mean no way, I no country singer. Well
it's if it was a good album. I haven't heard it, man,
So I got no want to hear a black country singer.
Listen to Charlie Pride on your way home. I will,
(04:41):
I will, I will, I will punch that in for
the commute home.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
You're welcome, good God.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
All right, what do you want to talk about? Come on,
I'm here.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Well, we were talking about.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Lebron says he had no idea that they were going
to trade for Luca.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
You believe him, he might not have.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Yeah, uh, you know why I mean, and I'm the
same way, you know. I mean, the sham Sharania comes
out who literally works for Clutch Sport.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Right, same agent, right, Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I mean it's ridiculous the stuff that we that we
absorb and eat and act like it's real.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Well, Dick and I talked about that the other day.
Don't you think that's kind of blurring the line a
little bit?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
With all of it's blurred, And I mean nobody and
no one really knows what happened here, like if I
really had to guess, And it's not even like what
it's a conspiracy theory at this point, most of these
things end up being true. Somebody called, and I probably
Genie buzz Adam Silver and said, hey, would you help
us out. We've done a lot for you and we're
(05:39):
underneath this guy. We need you got to shake this up.
And it's a it. There certainly was a shakeup this trade.
I mean, no one cares how these teams are when
they actually play, but this trade and the drama involved
is Eclipse the super Bowl, and I bet you the
NFL and Goodell are pissed about it. I guarantee you
(06:00):
they're pissed about it. But to your point, thinking in
the nitty gritty part of it and all the weird
little veins of confusion everybody's talking themselves in and out
of when it comes to this, I think that he
didn't know. And I think at this point I thought
at first I thought, yeah, of course he knew. He
controls everything, and he was probably over a d and
(06:23):
he took the hatchet to Ad, just like he's taking
the hatchet to all these other coaches and all these
other players Kyrie Irving and all that, so on and
so forth in his career. Why would this be any different.
Maybe it's different because now the Lakers are set up
to move away from Lebron and it's no longer that
he's going to be in control. It's going to be
the Slovene mafia. So that's a good like for me.
(06:46):
It's like World War Two. Yeah, I don't really like Russia,
they're Commis, but if I need him to beat Lebron.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Boy, you are so you are as anti Lebron as
it gets.
Speaker 5 (06:59):
I think he ruined. I think he ruined.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I think he's a great athlete obviously, and at forty
years old, who knows what he's doing. To do what
he's doing, it's wonderful, great whatever. I think the way
they've manipulated teams and the way he's manipulated agents and
players and created what he's created within the league has
You can argue whether it was right or wrong, but
(07:23):
it is no doubt really crippled the NBA in a
lot of ways, and I think a lot of it
is right on him and Adam Silver. I don't think
David Stern would have allowed it to be this way.
And I mean it's a longer conversation for people that
know more than me, but yes, I think the sooner
Lebron can get away from the Lakers, the better everything
(07:44):
would be for the NBA.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Yeah, well, listen, you've stuck to so tired of everybody
talking about how are we going to help Lebron?
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Lebron needs a big you know, we got to get
Lebron's son in there. We got to hire Lebron's podcast
partner to be the coach. I think at a certain
point of these things happen. It's not even a joke,
like the kids out there dribbling the ball off his leg,
like Olie and who's your.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
Kids? I mean, it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
And Ollie came through with two clutch free throws. I
believe against her. Hun if I'm not mistaken.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Browny missed to last night and secured Chick fil A
for the Clipper fans even though it was a law. Look,
I don't I don't know the right answer, but to me,
if Luca donte, it feels more like the people that
I know that are up Lebron's ass are livid, right,
and that gives you the impression that that Lebron's not happy.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah, which you love.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
That's perfect, It's perfect.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
Love that great.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Just I don't care if this guy's fat or he's
dipped in vodka. I'm not even a Laker fan. I
just don't want Lebron.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Did you see you see who Pete Carroll just hired
as his brain new see his son no no a
chip Kelly?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Oh yeah yeah yeah, well his suns a run game court.
Yes yeah, Brennan, yeah, Brennan, old buckethead. Uh, that's appropriate.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I would say he's got a gigantic head.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
God, that thing is huge.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
And soon Nate Carroll the other Carol will be the
quarterback coach or something like that, or the coordinator of
Flea Flickers.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
That's a real title, by the way.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Oh yeah, and uh we'll just go on from there.
I mean, it's no, it's no uh, it's no secret.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
How do you think Chip doesn't is?
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Is h rush back to the National Football League.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
I think Chip will do well. I I think Chip
knows how to call plays. I think Chip appreciates you
know the game and how to call plays, and knows
how to do it, knows how to set things up.
It's always a little more interesting to watch him do
it in the NFL because of the hash marks. I mean,
what Chip Kelly. I mean, I know he's a punchline
because he looks like a phone booth. But uh, in
(09:55):
midget town. But like what Chip Kelly created, I don't.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Think you can say that anymore.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
What Chip Kelly. There's a whole new regime.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
What a whole new you mean?
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Look at sixteen hundred Pennsylvania whenever you want, Man, You're right, man,
it's the chains are off.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
Man. A lot of the streets.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
Shackles have been removed.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
We're back. I live in California. I don't know what's
going on. I was watching Rodney Dangerfield the other night
on H on Johnny Carson, and he's sweating so much,
and he's so coked up, and he's just telling the
same jokes over and over again, and everybody's the same
jokes he's told every every six months that he's been
(10:47):
there for the last fifteen years, and finally he just goes,
bring the next guy out. I don't know what I'm doing.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
God, I miss him, him, Carl and all those guys.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Manez Kelly created the pace and the space in college football.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Why did you go from Chip Kelly to Rodney Sweat
and his ass off doing coke.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I was just thinking of, you know, telling scipid jokes
about Chip Kelly being, you know, midget town phone booth.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
And I don't know what to bring on? Bring on,
Kevin Harlan. I don't know what I'm doing out here
five o'clock.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
But that the pacing and the spacing of a college
football defense, where the hash marks are getting people to
turn their hips and sprint to the sideline and creating
vertical run lanes that way as opposed to I guess
a run and shoot offense or some other ways to
spread people out in the decades before that, or the
(11:38):
air raid. What Chip created in Oregon is I mean,
it's going to go down in college football history. It's
it's really special and it changed college football. But doing
it in the NFL is different because of where the
hash marks are and the one on one matchups that
the NFL is so much more oriented toward. And I
(11:59):
think I'll have successes he did in Philadelphia, but so
much the success at that level, as you know, is
based on who the quarterback is, right, and we'll see that.
The people talking about Sam Donald and Pete Carroll and USC,
I mean to a certain degree that's true, but it's
not other than the fact that they were both at USC.
I mean, Sam Donald played for Clay Helton, which means
(12:23):
before that you had sark at Ojeron and Lane Kiffin
is the car right.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Yeah, Sam never played for Pete.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Exactly, and Pete was not around USC in those days.
You know, he was having Glory and Seattle. So I
mean it's not like a reuniting of the band. I
think people see Sam Donald and they don't really have
the years in mind where all these things took place.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
But we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
I mean, Chip Kelly and Pete Carroll know how to coach,
and I mean it reminds me of when Pete Carroll
got the job at USC and right away he hired
Norm Chow and spent a bunch of money for him
and so on. And of course he then later said
that wasn't Norm's offense, it's my offense. And I'm sure
if they have a bunch of success, he'll say that
about ship.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Yeah, and what would Norm say to you about those days?
Speaker 5 (13:12):
Cares about his credits? Geez?
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Uh Petros Papadacus with us. I heard there was a
big earthquake in uh Sanerini. Oh I look, look I
studied this yesterday. Yeah big not just a big earthquake.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Now, First of all, Santorini, known to the Greeks as Feta,
is like the Maui of.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Greece, Fela like the tennis shoes. No feeda, feeda, feeda
or feeda like yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Th h I r a but you kind of say
it like an f feed and yeah, but that's the
name of the town. I guess everybody calls it Santorini.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Now, well, we're going there in a few months. We
pulled back. I just I do not knowne is the
island gone?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Well, uh, they keep having earth It's not just that
they had on earthquake. They are having earthquakes like every
five minute. They're small earthquakes. Yeah, it's like me after
a bowl of chili, right right, three to five in magnitude.
But like you after a bowl of chili. Some experts
think that it's a precursor to a larger event.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Oh god, yeah, and like.
Speaker 5 (14:15):
You at the chili.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
This is a volcanic island. I mean, Santorini is a volcano.
That's why it is shaped like a blown out volcano.
So it's a little bit different than that. They've had
earthquakes there for years. It's in a very seismic I mean,
the whole place was created by earthquakes. It's a very
seismic area in the aeg and C. But that being
(14:39):
said to have earthquakes in sequence like this is very
It's never happened before.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Well, I'm imagining we go there in May and we
get spit out like Joe versus the volcano.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Yeah, Tom Hanks and men Ryan. Well, the volcano is
actually inverted.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
It, so we're just swimming around the ocean as balls
of flame or landing next it's.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Already like that the ocean. You know, the volcano blew
years ago, and the two volcanoes that are near it
are dormant. But here's what's interesting. There's nobody there in February,
and there's still hundreds of people evacuating. Somebody wrote thousands,
and then I had to look into it. I was like, dude,
there aren't thousands of people there right now because it
(15:21):
is so cold. It's not like Maui in that way.
Greece is very seasonal, so there are there are people leaving,
but there are usually more churches in Santorini than people
this time of year. However, there was an earthquake in
nineteen fifty six that destroyed the entire island basically before
it was a tourist he plays killed fifty three people
(15:43):
and basically wrecked the whole place. So they have fairies
leaving for everybody. Planes are leaving and there is Coastguard
waiting to evacuate people if the island falls into the sea.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Yeah, well if that happens, then we're not going then
literally falls into the sea.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
We will not be going there.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
Right, yeah, yeah, I would imagine.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Yeah, so I can cross that off the I already
warned you about it, And now look what's happening. Well,
you know it's it's it's you know, it's it's too
highly visited. Somebody telling us to not go. I guess,
but you know it could be the end of me.
You know, you and me got you really got to
see that Blue Dome church. A couple of more months
together on the air, and then blocking it's all over.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
Enjoy it.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Who do you like on Sunday?
Speaker 2 (16:25):
It's where they shot the Traveling Pants. Oh really Yeah,
but that's not how it got. It got popular in
the movie Summer Lovers, okay, with the big eyebrow guy,
you know, the King of real Estate. Yeah, nailed by
the King.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Yeah, I got that that guy.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Summer Lovers was having all kinds of naked sex all
over there, and they became a thing of.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
The seventy naked sex as opposed to fully clothed sex.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Well, I mean it's a seventies big bush naked si Wow.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
Okay, Now, hey, say, who do you like? On Sunday

Okay, you're not hosting a party somewhere. No, I getting
paid a talent fee.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
No, nobody wants to watch the Super Bowl. Oh god, hey,

a good run. Say that's sakuon Barkley. Sure got a
bowling ball head there.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
Yeah. Yeah, so you could offer it if you wanted to,
but you just don't want it.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
It's Poe.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
You don't give a damn.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Rarely, when Luca makes his debut with the Lakers, will
you be there in attendance?

I think it's about to be this weekend.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
Yeah, the Pacer Are you going?
Speaker 5 (17:30):

kill aways, blowing up in Hawaii. Wow.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
Yeah, look around you.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
You just don't leave the house. Man, You're better off
staying locked up.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
I'd mostly stay here in the basement with my lizard.
You ever see the movie Surrogates with Bruce Willis. No,
when they like this would be perfect for you. You
basically have like an android live your life for you.
You stay home and just get fat. Oh and then

Well, I don't know, maybe I will. I just at
this point, I don't have plans. It's not that important
of a thing for me. I got you.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Yeah, that's what we appreciate about you. You work in
sports and the Super Bowl. You couldn't give a damn.
I'm kind of with you. I'm not all the way
with you, but I'm kind of getting closer to being
with you as the days go by. You're kind of
wearing off on me, by the way.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
It's yeah, it's a bad thing about doing sports with me.
Eventually you just you start to hate everything.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
No question, no question. All right, man, great stuff, enjoy it.

Alrighty, boys and girls, here we go on this Wednesday
before Super Bowl fifty nine.
Speaker 4 (00:40):
Cannot think of a better guy to break it all
down for US.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Kansas City, Philadelphia, Sunday, three thirty. Right here, one of
the most sot after guests and radio former frequent visitor
to Radio Row.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Before he said enough is enough, I went.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Once one damn fine Greek American father of the year,
husband of the month, and our friend Petros Papadoccus brought
to you Bob.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
The one and only Sweet James, the dense beard and

Speaker 4 (01:25):
You were a one time visitor to Radio row right.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
My radio partner used to go every year, and I'd
kind of lived it through him, but I went.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I only went to New Orleans. I don't miss it
at all. No, no, no, all I've been to No,
I'm sorry. I didn't even go to New Orleans. I
was at a super Bowl in Miami. Got it when
Drew Brees beat Peyton Manning? Right, right, right, yeah, No,
it's a terrible thing because I say this all the time.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Well, I mean the one thing you want to do.
I mean, how long have you held down afternoon drive
in Seattle? Thirteen years? Right, so it's been a while, right,
and you have no signs of slowing down. And that
is that is because why.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
That's what you think. You never know, you never know
you're right saying the wrong turn this. You could be
sodomized by the space needle on your way out.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Hey what happened to Softy?
Speaker 5 (02:20):
But my yeah, my point is, uh, It is a thing.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
That if you have a show for a long time,
it's because you found a way to be unique, probably
or your personality is unique. And the super Bowl media
radio row stuff does not. It just does not promote
that everybody's doing the same interviews, everybody's talking about the
same things, everybody's going to the same places. If you
(02:48):
get into a city like Miami, which is always shocking
to me, I don't know if Seattle is this way,
Los Angeles is not. I mean Los Angeles is so
big that if you have the Olympics here, yeah, people
will probably get in some traffic. But the super Bowl
happens here and nobody notices, you know. I mean the
city absorbs gigantic events two three, four at a time
(03:12):
and and that, and whenever you get into these other cities,
it's gridlocked everywhere.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
I mean you can't get into this part of the
town or that part of the town anyway.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
I hate it. It sucks.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
I hate everybody. Glad I'm not there. Well, I just
know it's funny because this Luca trade, Yes, you know,
it's it's wild. I went on the Morning Show with
Jonas Knox and LeVar Arrington like I do every Wednesday.
And we didn't mention the Super Bowl.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Nobody talked about Kansas City or Travis Kelcey or broadcast
Taylor Swift or Wow Media nine.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Punk Gas Taylor Swift. You're not a big Tate.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Fan, are you? Well? I don't mind her, okay, cool.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Doesn't bother me, as I mean, why does she? Why
tell me? Why?
Speaker 5 (03:56):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
She doesn't bother me?
Speaker 4 (03:58):
She's punk?
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Well, she is a punk. I don't want to hear
because I.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Don't want to hear anybody tell me what a brilliant
musician she is.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
It's terrible.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Next thing you get to tell me is Beyonce's Country
album was the best art and piece of music anybody
put together this year.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Right boy?
Speaker 4 (04:18):
People were pissed about that.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Well, I mean no way, I no country singer. Well
it's if it was a good album. I haven't heard it, man,
So I got no want to hear a black country singer.
Listen to Charlie Pride on your way home. I will,
(04:41):
I will, I will, I will punch that in for
the commute home.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
You're welcome, good God.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
All right, what do you want to talk about? Come on,
I'm here.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Well, we were talking about.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Lebron says he had no idea that they were going
to trade for Luca.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
You believe him, he might not have.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Yeah, uh, you know why I mean, and I'm the
same way, you know. I mean, the sham Sharania comes
out who literally works for Clutch Sport.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Right, same agent, right, Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I mean it's ridiculous the stuff that we that we
absorb and eat and act like it's real.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Well, Dick and I talked about that the other day.
Don't you think that's kind of blurring the line a
little bit?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
With all of it's blurred, And I mean nobody and
no one really knows what happened here, like if I
really had to guess, And it's not even like what
it's a conspiracy theory at this point, most of these
things end up being true. Somebody called, and I probably
Genie buzz Adam Silver and said, hey, would you help
us out. We've done a lot for you and we're
(05:39):
underneath this guy. We need you got to shake this up.
And it's a it. There certainly was a shakeup this trade.
I mean, no one cares how these teams are when
they actually play, but this trade and the drama involved
is Eclipse the super Bowl, and I bet you the
NFL and Goodell are pissed about it. I guarantee you
(06:00):
they're pissed about it. But to your point, thinking in
the nitty gritty part of it and all the weird
little veins of confusion everybody's talking themselves in and out
of when it comes to this, I think that he
didn't know. And I think at this point I thought
at first I thought, yeah, of course he knew. He
controls everything, and he was probably over a d and
(06:23):
he took the hatchet to Ad, just like he's taking
the hatchet to all these other coaches and all these
other players Kyrie Irving and all that, so on and
so forth in his career. Why would this be any different.
Maybe it's different because now the Lakers are set up
to move away from Lebron and it's no longer that
he's going to be in control. It's going to be
the Slovene mafia. So that's a good like for me.
(06:46):
It's like World War Two. Yeah, I don't really like Russia,
they're Commis, but if I need him to beat Lebron.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Boy, you are so you are as anti Lebron as
it gets.
Speaker 5 (06:59):
I think he ruined. I think he ruined.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I think he's a great athlete obviously, and at forty
years old, who knows what he's doing. To do what
he's doing, it's wonderful, great whatever. I think the way
they've manipulated teams and the way he's manipulated agents and
players and created what he's created within the league has
You can argue whether it was right or wrong, but
(07:23):
it is no doubt really crippled the NBA in a
lot of ways, and I think a lot of it
is right on him and Adam Silver. I don't think
David Stern would have allowed it to be this way.
And I mean it's a longer conversation for people that
know more than me, but yes, I think the sooner
Lebron can get away from the Lakers, the better everything
(07:44):
would be for the NBA.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Yeah, well, listen, you've stuck to so tired of everybody
talking about how are we going to help Lebron?
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Lebron needs a big you know, we got to get
Lebron's son in there. We got to hire Lebron's podcast
partner to be the coach. I think at a certain
point of these things happen. It's not even a joke,
like the kids out there dribbling the ball off his leg,
like Olie and who's your.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
Kids? I mean, it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
And Ollie came through with two clutch free throws. I
believe against her. Hun if I'm not mistaken.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Browny missed to last night and secured Chick fil A
for the Clipper fans even though it was a law. Look,
I don't I don't know the right answer, but to me,
if Luca donte, it feels more like the people that
I know that are up Lebron's ass are livid, right,
and that gives you the impression that that Lebron's not happy.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah, which you love.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
That's perfect, It's perfect.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
Love that great.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Just I don't care if this guy's fat or he's
dipped in vodka. I'm not even a Laker fan. I
just don't want Lebron.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Did you see you see who Pete Carroll just hired
as his brain new see his son no no a
chip Kelly?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Oh yeah yeah yeah, well his suns a run game court.
Yes yeah, Brennan, yeah, Brennan, old buckethead. Uh, that's appropriate.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I would say he's got a gigantic head.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
God, that thing is huge.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
And soon Nate Carroll the other Carol will be the
quarterback coach or something like that, or the coordinator of
Flea Flickers.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
That's a real title, by the way.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Oh yeah, and uh we'll just go on from there.
I mean, it's no, it's no uh, it's no secret.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
How do you think Chip doesn't is?
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Is h rush back to the National Football League.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
I think Chip will do well. I I think Chip
knows how to call plays. I think Chip appreciates you
know the game and how to call plays, and knows
how to do it, knows how to set things up.
It's always a little more interesting to watch him do
it in the NFL because of the hash marks. I mean,
what Chip Kelly. I mean, I know he's a punchline
because he looks like a phone booth. But uh, in
(09:55):
midget town. But like what Chip Kelly created, I don't.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Think you can say that anymore.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
What Chip Kelly. There's a whole new regime.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
What a whole new you mean?
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Look at sixteen hundred Pennsylvania whenever you want, Man, You're right, man,
it's the chains are off.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
Man. A lot of the streets.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
Shackles have been removed.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
We're back. I live in California. I don't know what's
going on. I was watching Rodney Dangerfield the other night
on H on Johnny Carson, and he's sweating so much,
and he's so coked up, and he's just telling the
same jokes over and over again, and everybody's the same
jokes he's told every every six months that he's been
(10:47):
there for the last fifteen years, and finally he just goes,
bring the next guy out. I don't know what I'm doing.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
God, I miss him, him, Carl and all those guys.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Manez Kelly created the pace and the space in college football.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Why did you go from Chip Kelly to Rodney Sweat
and his ass off doing coke.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I was just thinking of, you know, telling scipid jokes
about Chip Kelly being, you know, midget town phone booth.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
And I don't know what to bring on? Bring on,
Kevin Harlan. I don't know what I'm doing out here
five o'clock.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
But that the pacing and the spacing of a college
football defense, where the hash marks are getting people to
turn their hips and sprint to the sideline and creating
vertical run lanes that way as opposed to I guess
a run and shoot offense or some other ways to
spread people out in the decades before that, or the
(11:38):
air raid. What Chip created in Oregon is I mean,
it's going to go down in college football history. It's
it's really special and it changed college football. But doing
it in the NFL is different because of where the
hash marks are and the one on one matchups that
the NFL is so much more oriented toward. And I
(11:59):
think I'll have successes he did in Philadelphia, but so
much the success at that level, as you know, is
based on who the quarterback is, right, and we'll see that.
The people talking about Sam Donald and Pete Carroll and USC,
I mean to a certain degree that's true, but it's
not other than the fact that they were both at USC.
I mean, Sam Donald played for Clay Helton, which means
(12:23):
before that you had sark at Ojeron and Lane Kiffin
is the car right.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Yeah, Sam never played for Pete.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Exactly, and Pete was not around USC in those days.
You know, he was having Glory and Seattle. So I
mean it's not like a reuniting of the band. I
think people see Sam Donald and they don't really have
the years in mind where all these things took place.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
But we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
I mean, Chip Kelly and Pete Carroll know how to coach,
and I mean it reminds me of when Pete Carroll
got the job at USC and right away he hired
Norm Chow and spent a bunch of money for him
and so on. And of course he then later said
that wasn't Norm's offense, it's my offense. And I'm sure
if they have a bunch of success, he'll say that
about ship.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Yeah, and what would Norm say to you about those days?
Speaker 5 (13:12):
Cares about his credits? Geez?
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Uh Petros Papadacus with us. I heard there was a
big earthquake in uh Sanerini. Oh I look, look I
studied this yesterday. Yeah big not just a big earthquake.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Now, First of all, Santorini, known to the Greeks as Feta,
is like the Maui of.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Greece, Fela like the tennis shoes. No feeda, feeda, feeda
or feeda like yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Th h I r a but you kind of say
it like an f feed and yeah, but that's the
name of the town. I guess everybody calls it Santorini.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Now, well, we're going there in a few months. We
pulled back. I just I do not knowne is the
island gone?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Well, uh, they keep having earth It's not just that
they had on earthquake. They are having earthquakes like every
five minute. They're small earthquakes. Yeah, it's like me after
a bowl of chili, right right, three to five in magnitude.
But like you after a bowl of chili. Some experts
think that it's a precursor to a larger event.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Oh god, yeah, and like.
Speaker 5 (14:15):
You at the chili.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
This is a volcanic island. I mean, Santorini is a volcano.
That's why it is shaped like a blown out volcano.
So it's a little bit different than that. They've had
earthquakes there for years. It's in a very seismic I mean,
the whole place was created by earthquakes. It's a very
seismic area in the aeg and C. But that being
(14:39):
said to have earthquakes in sequence like this is very
It's never happened before.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Well, I'm imagining we go there in May and we
get spit out like Joe versus the volcano.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Yeah, Tom Hanks and men Ryan. Well, the volcano is
actually inverted.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
It, so we're just swimming around the ocean as balls
of flame or landing next it's.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Already like that the ocean. You know, the volcano blew
years ago, and the two volcanoes that are near it
are dormant. But here's what's interesting. There's nobody there in February,
and there's still hundreds of people evacuating. Somebody wrote thousands,
and then I had to look into it. I was like, dude,
there aren't thousands of people there right now because it
(15:21):
is so cold. It's not like Maui in that way.
Greece is very seasonal, so there are there are people leaving,
but there are usually more churches in Santorini than people
this time of year. However, there was an earthquake in
nineteen fifty six that destroyed the entire island basically before
it was a tourist he plays killed fifty three people
(15:43):
and basically wrecked the whole place. So they have fairies
leaving for everybody. Planes are leaving and there is Coastguard
waiting to evacuate people if the island falls into the sea.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Yeah, well if that happens, then we're not going then
literally falls into the sea.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
We will not be going there.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
Right, yeah, yeah, I would imagine.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Yeah, so I can cross that off the I already
warned you about it, And now look what's happening. Well,
you know it's it's it's you know, it's it's too
highly visited. Somebody telling us to not go. I guess,
but you know it could be the end of me.
You know, you and me got you really got to
see that Blue Dome church. A couple of more months
together on the air, and then blocking it's all over.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
Enjoy it.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Who do you like on Sunday?
Speaker 2 (16:25):
It's where they shot the Traveling Pants. Oh really Yeah,
but that's not how it got. It got popular in
the movie Summer Lovers, okay, with the big eyebrow guy,
you know, the King of real Estate. Yeah, nailed by
the King.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Yeah, I got that that guy.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Summer Lovers was having all kinds of naked sex all
over there, and they became a thing of.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
The seventy naked sex as opposed to fully clothed sex.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Well, I mean it's a seventies big bush naked si Wow.
Speaker 4 (16:50):

a good run. Say that's sakuon Barkley. Sure got a
bowling ball head there.

but you just don't want it.
Speaker 5 (17:20):

this point, I don't have plans. It's not that important
of a thing for me. I got you.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Yeah, that's what we appreciate about you. You work in
sports and the Super Bowl. You couldn't give a damn.
I'm kind of with you. I'm not all the way
with you, but I'm kind of getting closer to being
with you as the days go by. You're kind of
wearing off on me, by the way.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
It's yeah, it's a bad thing about doing sports with me.
Eventually you just you start to hate everything.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
No question, no question. All right, man, great stuff, enjoy it.
