(00:00):
Sporty US Media Dot. Thank youfor Dot, and now yours all Right.
It is the last week of Maytwenty twenty one. I'm Chris,
I'm Rich, I am the iceman. Oh a lot of playoff talk because

(00:22):
that's really all that's going on.So we're gonna start with uh yeah,
well we'll start with the NHL.We'll get to the playoffs in a minute,
because I I don't know where Ifucking sit on this. I part
of Eisman brings Blashell back as headcoach. Why because he trusts them.

(00:44):
I believe the quote was we playhard underneath him. And I'm like,
hey, is this the coach totake you to the next level? Though,
because I'm not really seeing it yet. Two years Eisman being here,
two years of him co signing ona head coach and give him an extension
and I'm like why. The onlything I could think of the Illiges are

(01:07):
like, Yo, Papa Illag isdead. The purse strings are being fucking
closely, fucking kept to the vest. You will be because you got torts
out there looking for a job.You got Stevie Wise, former linemate who's
proven that he can take essentially anexpansion team to the playoffs. That's Gerard

(01:29):
Glant. He did it the firstyear with Vegas. I don't know what's
going on, man, and everybody'sjust going it's always mean, we got
to trust him, and it's like, I get that, But he hasn't
as a general manager, even withTampa Bay. In my opinion, he
doesn't have the one hundred and fiftyplus point seasons as a general manager and

(01:53):
you know, double overtime game sixwinning goal, you know what I'm saying,
Like he hasn't. He doesn't havethose definitive moments as a general manager.
But he's got that. They gotthe Cup the year after he left,
that's right. But I mean youcould argue that up with what he

(02:15):
built. That's what they said aboutfucking uh Gruden and Tampa Bay. And
I mean, if you look atthe rest of the Gruden's coaching record in
Tampa Bay, that's a valid point. I mean, the last time they
made the playoffs was two thousand andseven before last year. Oh, you
are always the first one to pointout he did it with Dungee's players,
you know, I mean, andthey didn't win a playoff game with Gruden

(02:39):
as head coach, and with Gruden'scarousel of fucking quarterbacks as he collects them
in his curio cabinet, and allthe you know, the three in the
morning, leaving at midnight and comingback at three in the morning, and
you know, Warren sat being likeI could there at five in the morning
before even maintenance and he's already inthere on his computer. Didn't didn't help

(03:02):
any It didn't though. Didn't TampaBay win another Cup without him? Though?
Didn't they win last year? Isn'tit what it's called Champa Bay right
now? Yeah? Yeah, theythey want a Cup with a team that
essentially he built through general you know, the draft and being just being a
general manager. I mean, look, the problem is that NHL has the

(03:23):
draft lottery. You can't tank.There's no guarantee you're gonna get anything for
tanking. All right, this teamdoesn't even need to try to tank.
This was the worst team by farin hockey two seasons ago, and I
think they're the sixth worth sixth,sixth worse record wise. But I mean,

(03:46):
dude, that team a couple ofyears ago. I was bored up
and at the radio station then foryou know, they were running the Red
Wings games up there in Port Huron, having to having those games on the
monitors in the studio. I'm justlooking at it like brothers when he goes,
what the fuck happened? I mean, that's that's how I fell watching
these games, like who the whothe who are these strange men in these
red jerseys? And what the fuckis this? They're playing? Well?

(04:09):
Not only that, but I meanlook at like, look at the season
that just the regular season, itjust wrapped up. Look at the red
Wing statistics. Their goaltender had toplay out of his fucking mind. You
know, Bernier had to play outof his fucking mind for the team to
be as good as they did,because there's no defense that it's really to
speak of, and the offense isa joke. I mean in the first

(04:31):
overall pick that Eisman went with wasMaurice Cider from Germany, a defenseman who's
playing in the Swedish league. Youknow, they're hoping he comes, he
comes over this you know, thisseason, and he can make the fucking
big team. But it's like,okay, there's no I don't see.
This is what I don't see.I don't I don't see nor hear the

(04:53):
cavalry coming over the hill, anda lot of people are acting like we're
two three years away from a StanleyCup contented? How many years? Uh?
No blash, Uh, I gottalook. The only thing I'm thinking
maybe this is this is a budgetmove. Keep a cheap coach, let's

(05:15):
start pouring money into free agents.Uh that's been Oh my god, dude,
you ready to fucking feel like aloser? Are you ready to feel
like a loser? Was Jeff Flashforty seven? Fucking he's forty seven years
old? Dude, Oh there's there'splaying people younger me and make me feel
like a loser already. But I'mjust saying, and the motherfucker's from THEE

(05:35):
is my age. That's all Igotta say. He is literally my age.
Yeah, and and and in andin two thousand and four in the
playoffs when they were showing shots oftheo Epstein in the fucking owner's box,
my my wife at time was like, oh, who's that? And I'm
like, all right, calm down. I don't want to have to flip
the cushions because you're getting fucking stoppingwet over there. Yeah, I'm gm

(05:57):
in a pizza place. He's runningthe Red Sox. Yeah, that made
me feel real awesome. It's justthe fact that she looked at him and
she goes, he looks younger thanus, and I'm like, probably is
at least me. I think Amberand I are the same age, like
or at least four in the sameyear. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
you go. You guys are Yeah, I think you're the same age.

(06:18):
Okay, So April second, thatlong ago already, damn almost two months
Red Wings announce they signed Blash toa two year contract extension. Okay,
so it's two years. Oh that'stwenty nineteen. Excuse me. On May
eighteenth, there we go, thatmakes more sense. I was like,
April second, that doesn't I justgot the alert last week. They sitting

(06:40):
on that long h this is allit says in the article. I can
find her off the bat. I'meighteenth, twenty twenty one, Red Wings
announced they signed Blashell to a contractextension. I'm not seeing any information on
his contract. I do know thatthey got him for a lot cheaper than
they probably would have got towards orthey a guy Chard gallant Um, and

(07:03):
that's some of the speculat I mean, I'm I was ready to be like,
what the fuck man, Okay,this is a guy who cut his
Blashle is a head coach who cuthis teeth in the minors, was good
at developing players and getting them intothe into the NHL via you know,
the Red Wings. The problem isis that you take him from that part

(07:26):
of the pipeline and moving to theend of it, aka the head coach
position of the big team, whoyou're gonna get to replace him? And
I'm not seeing a steady fucking streamof of of guys coming up from the
AHL or the EC you know,HL or even you know the Swedish or
fucking the KHL. You know,I don't see them fucking coming into into

(07:49):
almost said Joe Lewis. But youget what I'm saying, you know,
Bill Caesar's arena and putting on auniform and playing time that's worth even men.
I mean, I just don't.And I'm like, where is all
this hope coming from besides the factthat Steve Eiserman and yes, he is
a legend in this fucking town.He's a legend in hockey. I mean,

(08:11):
if you talk about the top tenplayers of all time and you got
five people in a room and askhim name their top ten, and no
one mentions Eiserman. I will slapthe shit out of every single one of
those people. That is absolutely retarded. But that doesn't translate to he's going
to be a beast behind the fuckingthe big desk, either, And that's

(08:31):
the that's I look at it like, Uh, Jesus and Khaki's dude,
I just hope it's not the sameresult. You know, you got a
Michigan man back in Michigan. Uh, he's these you know, he's the
last of what we've called the oldguard, you know, and uh,

(08:54):
you know, let's just hope hecan do here. What what you know,
he's all always done, find away people we never knew. We're
good people. You know, oneStanley cups with him. You know,
people that people never heard of madethe Red Wings, you know, in
the playoffs for a quarter of adecade. So I'm gonna give him the

(09:18):
benefit of the doubt until you can'tthe same thing with Jesus. Akaki's Okay,
we gave him the benefit of thedoubt. Okay, no, you're
not good. Next, I justtold him he's not a giant member barring
right something to play Kate the fanbase. Hey remember hockey Town. That's
what I'm Stanley Cups. That's whatI'm afraid of. Because, just to

(09:43):
be honest, the Illages as anownership group, maybe not individually, I
don't know. I didn't know MikeIllage, I don't know Chris Ellige,
I don't know any of them,all right, but as an ownership group,
especially the Tigers, Yeah, theyleaned real heavy on the member berries
until about two thousand and six theyreally did. I mean two thousand and

(10:07):
four is when they really they youknow. Two thousand and four is when
they brought in Pudge. Thousand andfive they brought in Farnsworth, they brought
in Maggie, you know. Imean they were ramping up, like,
Okay, look, fuck a rebuild, We're going to win. And it's
probably because Mike Gillis saw the writingon the wall and said, I ain't
got many more of these summers left. I want to fucking in October.

(10:31):
I want to hold up a goddamnWorld Series fucking trophy. But I mean
before that, bringing in Alan Trammell, bringing back fucking Kurt Gibson, who,
by the way, nobody in theclubhouse could stand Kurt Gibson. His
nickname with the players when he wasa bench coach was two hit Kurt,

(10:52):
because they're like, you only hadtwo hits worth of shit in your entire
fucking career and you're acting like you'resomething big. Sit down, Shut the
fuck up with your shaky Parkinson ass. Now, I don't know Kurt Gibson.
I you know, growing up andyou grew up in Detroit, my
age, you pretty much worshiped KurtGibson, especially if you remember then eighty
four home run and you know theiconic picture of him jumping musty. Hell

(11:13):
yeah, I just met you knowwhat I'm saying. But there's plenty of
stories out there of him being afucking cocksucker to to the average person that
he doesn't have to be polite toand if he's in a position of power,
and those are all allegedly so holdon, and if that's true,
I can understand why the players werelike, why is this motherfucker? Who

(11:37):
are you to tell me what todo? Motherfucker? What hits? What
have you done in your career?What? Why are you strutting around like
you're in the hall of fame.The only time you've been to Cooperstown,
you bought a ticket, just likeme. So I don't I don't want
to hear it. And I meanthat's a problem because if they're bringing it
because Eiserman from what I've heard throughthe grape vine and what it has been
leaked through certain sources who never namedtheir fucking sources, to take it what

(12:03):
you will, I'm not even gonnagive him. I'm not even gonna shout
him out because if you're from Detroit, you know you pretty much figure out
how the sports rags I'm talking about, Uh, they're like, yeah,
Eiserman, he he ain't exactly afucking player's GM. Like interviewing players before
the draft, apparently he comes offcold, aloof almost like shrugging his shoulder

(12:30):
at them, like I don't givea fuck what you got to say.
Well, And I'm like, ifthat's the truth, that seems so antithetical
to everything we know about Eiserman asa leader, because he was always the
guy that he wasn't the Rob Rodspeech guy. You didn't expect that out
of him. He wasn't going tocome out and guarante Shee to win.

(12:50):
But he kept that fucking locker roomunder control. I mean, I was
just I had a job interview todayand I just kind of talked about this
concept. Though. When you getinto higher leadership like that, it's a
different set of skills, right whenyou're when you're the leader of the team,
Yeah, you're you're more of you. It's it's kind of like you're
in a foxhol right like like it'skind of that mentality, like you're going

(13:13):
through battle together. You're the guyleading him through the battle that position he's
in now, I mean, youkind of got to be a hockey robot.
Just it's an argument Ice and Iget into all the time. But
and really, in sports, youare your stats dude. Then well and
not just that. Even when Eisermanwas with the Red Wings, he wasn't
a teammates teammate, you know.He wasn't like, oh, we're all

(13:37):
right, we're good. He wasthe guy that was cold and are you
making an excuse? Are you?Are you that guy? Don't be that
guy? All right, I'm outthere giving it all my every freaking night,
whether it's a playoff or not.I expect it of you two.
So that kind of goes right withhim. Actually, Rich, if I'm
thinking it's what I'm talking about though, is that you you got to understand

(14:01):
that when fucking Scotty Bowman showed up, Scotty Bowman showed up, and his
dick showed up ten minutes before hewalked in the room. Okay, Scotty
Bowman exactly, yeah, oh yeah, you know that dick was covered in
Stanley Cup races too, Okay,And I mean that's just all there is
to it. He was the closestwalking deity the NHL had at that point.

(14:28):
I mean to certain people, youknow, you can add like Don
Cherry to that list, but whatever. But I mean, let's be honest,
he is the Madden of the NHL. Like back then, especially back
then, even people who didn't reallyknow shit about hockey knew the name Scotty
Bowman because anytime the Detroit Red Wingswere mentioned why he was their head coach,
it was there's right Red Wings andtheir head coach, Scotty Bowman and

(14:52):
Eiserman. When he showed up,he told Isiserman a one hundred and sixty
plus points this season, that's nicethe Cups. If you won, you're
going to be the best two waycenter in the history of the fucking NHLA.
Yep. And if you buck,we'll send you to Ottawa where you
can ride. And he, asthe leader of that team, wearing that

(15:13):
sea, was able to keep thelocker room under control and deal with and
kind of act as a buffer betweenBowman and other guys on the team as
the leader to set the example rightif right, now, can you fall
in line with If you fall inline with Scottie, the rest of the
team's gonna If you don't, yeah, you're getting shipped to Ottawa, because

(15:37):
and I mean that's my point now, is that is that he is the
Scottie Bowman. Now he's above technically, if Bowman was the head coach,
he's Bowman's boss. He can fireBowman just because he woke up and his
left ball was etching him the wrongway. It doesn't at will employment,
fuck your contract. Welcome to thestate of Michigan. Babe, bye,

(15:58):
bitch. I'm sure someone he wouldchange hands, but he could fucking fire
him. That's the general manager,and he's president of hockey operations if I'm
not mistaken, So there's no oneto go to to appeal to above him.
Besides the illages, sucking up allthe salaries and jobs in that organization,
you know. And I mean,I'm gun. I'm with you,

(16:21):
Earl, because I gave I gaveJesus A. Khaki's three seasons. Man
didn't believe me that first year whenhe fucking was just fucking banking and just
curb stomping Rutgers and shit, Iwas, oh, fuck, okay,
this is like type of asswhip inOhio State puts on Rutgers. Maybe we're
up to their Oh oh no,we're not. Okay, keep losing the

(16:45):
Michigan State. You know. It'slike, ah so, but I mean,
dude, we're coming up on hissecond off season. We're coming up
on the first beginning of the thirdfull offseason he's general manager. If there
ain't improvement this season, that's that'sThat's like I don't care about moving up

(17:11):
from you know, six worth worstrecord to eighth worst record. Overall.
I want him competing for a fuckingplayoff spot next season. I want meaningful
games right up to the last twoweeks of the season. I keep finding
undisclosed terms on this deal, Soto me, that means either like he
can be fired tomorrow, or it'slike five years and he doesn't want to

(17:33):
fucking get like hate mail sent else. I got a feeling that that's what
I'm saying. Since I didn't findthe terms of Blashull's contract, I get
the feeling that, uh, it'sprobably incentive laden. It's probably the more
you win, the more job securityyou have. We will not have a
repeat of these last two seasons,or else you will be shown the door.

(17:57):
Maybe there's something like totally crazy youdon't even know about. Maybe maybe
like he's maybe eyes and he's like, listen, I'm gonna load you up
with talent this year. Fucking here'syour shot. But we don't know because
the way I look at it,with the Red Wings, like I said,
I'm not bullshit, and for twentyfive years they were in the playoffs.
Yeah you thought hockey, you knewRed Wings were gonna be there,

(18:19):
and and it's becomes such a secondnature for us that yeah, you would
want, you know, drastic improvementnow that you know Stevie Wise back at
the Helm. But we do haveto remember, shit takes time. The
game's changed a lot, and youknow, you gotta get on board with

(18:41):
the people that are ready to takethat change to heart. So I'm gonna
give him five he gots five years. I mean, the man is proven
on the ice, he's proven offthe ice. We can argue back and
forth whether Tampa Bay one cups withthem or not. But I'll tell you
what, Tampa Bay is a hellof a lot better now than they were
before he got there. That's allI give a god damn about. You

(19:03):
know, that is a very goodpoint. Tampa Bay's in much better shape
postize him in than preis him in. Okay, So he does do the
job. The man knows what thehell he's doing in this era obviously,
So I'm gonna give him benefit ofthe doubt and let him do his thing.
Now, whether people can remember thathockeytown was once Detroit and come back

(19:27):
to Detroit, and for a guylike Isiserman who's proven out of Detroit as
yet to be seen, people needto want to come back. For example,
you could bring Bill Belichick and Craftas owner of the Lions. Does
that mean that everybody that would goto the Patriots would actually come to the
Lions. I don't know. Imean, we tried that wouldn't have Patricia

(19:51):
which right, took out their garI mean, dude, here's the here's
the deal, though, you're you'recomparing fucking h the arguably the best head
coach in football history ever to aguy who was promoted from the fucking miners
and this is still his first fuckingin Blashell. I mean, that's what

(20:12):
I'm saying. There are there wereother options, like the two names that
keep popping up for head coach,John Tortorella. That's towards spent I believe,
six seasons coaching the Blue Jackets,but he brings the three ring circus
men, and I don't think hispersonality is going to work with what Eiserman

(20:36):
wants to do. Gerard Gallant maybethat's a money issue, because Gallant maybe
priced himself out of the fucking runningby going, hey, look, man,
I took an expansion team full ofnothing but mostly fourth liners and a
handful of third liners and lucked intoMarc Andre Fleury as my fucking goalie and
took that team first year to thefucking Stanley Cup Finals and was hired in

(21:00):
the middle of the fucking season fordoing it too. But he's the one
that got the ball rolling. He'sthe one that fucking said once again,
how much credit does he deserve now? Unless there's some shit going on behind
the scenes. I don't know about, like maybe maybe there was a mutiny
or something. Maybe he wasn't doingshit, it was all his assistant coaches.
I don't fucking know. I mean, this is this is the problem,

(21:22):
you know, with not knowing whatgoes on behind closed doors. We
don't. We're just speculating and inspitballing it and hoping we come somewhere near
what's going on. But I justto me, it feels like a stop
gap measure of we're not going totake a step back, and we're most
likely not going to take a stepforward. That's not a rebuild, that's

(21:42):
a holding pattern. That's an issuefor me, I guess moreover than the
Patriots, I guess it would bewhat Chris said and more of the Boston
Red Sox type of Chicago Cups thing. He did it, and you know,
the Red Sox went to the Cubsdid it again. Obviously, the

(22:03):
man knows what he's doing and peopleare attracted to him, so I'm hoping
the same thing happens, almost identicalto Stevie. Why he knows what he's
doing. He's done it in thepast at a different location, and now
he's here. I hope they followhim and he gets his pattern, right.
I mean, I could sum upwhy I'm not happy with that signing

(22:25):
and pretty much like a sentence ortwo. No winning seasons. You've missed
the playoffs five years in a row. You ended our playoff droute how how?
How he said, do you getsigned for fifty bucks in a bag
of pucks? Like I mean thatany other team you're fired? Well,

(22:48):
I mean, let's let's let's stopthe bullshit and go with cold, hard,
fucking facts, because you can't funkwith the fucking truth, all right,
So let's just get let's get thisshit right out here. He's been
the head coach since twenty fifteen.Twenty sixteen season, okay, he's had
one winning season. His first fortyone and thirty. They were third in

(23:12):
the Atlantic and they got bounced outin the first round of the playoffs.
Wrestler hit. The finishes have beenseventh in the Atlantic, fifth in the
Atlantic, seventh in the Atlantic.Last season, the season of COVID,
which was only seventy one gamestead ofeighty two eighth in the Atlantic and this

(23:33):
year sixth in the Atlantic, andthey've improved from seventeen and nineteen wins total.
I'm poking the ice bear here,but even the Lions would have fired
him by now. I mean,look, obviously he was good enough for
the organization to think that he isthe good like last step in the miners,

(23:55):
because I mean he was. Hewas coaching their fucking minor league team,
Grand Rapid Griffins that that's their topminor league, the Red Wings minor
league affiliate, and he was goodthere. There's no heart you. You
were given a shot. It didn'twork. Now here's my thing. If
Eiserman's a pragmatist, he might bethinking, Blashell isn't the head coach is

(24:18):
going to get us over this hump. But I don't want to lose him
as far as the organization goes,because he is that good at being the
last stop before you come to thefucking show. And if that's the case,
he's playing four D chess. Iguess because really the only people that
know if Blashell would accept that,because that's a that's clearly a demotion.

(24:41):
That's not even a fucking lateral movementthat is a downward movement in his career.
The only Blaschell knows if he'd acceptit. I mean, in depends
of what you want to be stickingaround working for the person that replaced him.
Well, I mean there's that too, but I mean there's also the
fact of it's like, you gotto know your limitations, man. Yeah,

(25:02):
And I don't think people are beatingdown Blashfell's door. Other NHL teams
are beating down his door offering himhead coaching contracts. And there's been assistant
coaches for the Red Wings over there, you know, the last thirty years
who've went on, who've been givenhead coaching positions, didn't do all that

(25:23):
great, went someplace else, rightedthe ship and became serviceable. You know,
head coaches in the NHL they're notfucking the best. You know,
they're not mentioned in the same breathas Bowman or Jacques de Maror's or anybody
like that. But you know,hey, they'll get you to the playoffs.
Might I gets passed first or secondround, they get you to the

(25:45):
playoffs. And I mean some teamsthat's all they want. I mean,
dude, especially the NHL. Youlook at the NHL. There's a lot
of teams because so many teams makethe NHL. I remember back in the
nineties, Oh, a lot offucking fans calling up for whatever team of
the city I was in that wasalf And I'm like, yeah, but

(26:07):
dude, sixteen fucking teams make theplayoffs. You know, half the fucking
league makes the playoffs. Literally,you gotta do something in the playoffs,
like like, being swept out ofthe first round is barely a cunt hair
above not making the playoffs. Yeah, and that's essentially what happened. Well,
it was a five game series thelast time Red Wings were in the

(26:27):
playoffs. Yeah, just so happened, I believe. So. Yeah.
So, I mean, this isone of the things I'm kind of scratching
my head, shaking my head,going these people are obviously have hockey IQs
that are off the fucking charts.I mean that you have to to be

(26:48):
at the top of a professional sportsorganization. I mean, especially the right.
I can't believe the Red Wings justput on clown shoes and just fucking
said, fuck it, let's ireEiserman. Because it's a it's a known
draw, you know. I mean, I gotta think that this move would
have been made if mister Ellis wasstill alive, you know what I'm saying,
Like he'd have wanted Eiserman back.But then again, if this is

(27:12):
just Chris Ellis going, I'm honoringmy father's wishes, I'm bringing back Eiserman.
Well, if that's all you're doing, you're wasting everybody's time, dude,
And obviously you're not interested in runningthis team the way it needs to
be run, which is there's winningthe Cup and then there's a whole lot
of losers. And we don't wantto be one of the whole lot of

(27:34):
losers at the end of the season. And that's all there is to it.
I mean, I don't know,there's too many there's too much shit
up in the air. And here'sthe problem we're having in Detroit all around.
We've been fucking spoiled between the lateeighty four Tigers into the late eighties,
fucking Pistons into the nineties, andearly two thousand red Wings into the

(27:57):
mid two thousands to mid twentyeen Tigers, and you can throw in eight well,
yeah, that's what I'm saying.But you know, like that was
the last gasp. I mean,even though they did go to back the
Cup finals back to back years theywanted, No. Eight lost it in
nine. Go to work Pistons.That's what I'm saying. We've been spoiled

(28:18):
now. All four of our fuckingteams are unequivocally can't argue this fact in
rebuild mode. And seriously, interestin Metro to sport Metro Detroit for sports
is at an all time low formy entire fucking life. Like, no
one, no stranger, no matterwhat I'm wearing, what jersey, what

(28:40):
had whatever, come up to meand talk to me about sports anymore.
Whereas you got a Red Wings haton. Oh I managed see that game
last night? Oh shit, yeah. They called up Geno Smith, the
new guy. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, he's a
badass. Blah blah blah. Nothing. Most I got in the last year
probably a seventy year old man talkingto me about baseball. And I mean,

(29:02):
anybody that's from here knows that thesmall talk isn't about weather because there's
two seasons in Detroit, winner androad construction. No one wants to talk
about those two things. We're sickof it, all right, We're gonna
talk politics. You might as welljust fucking start pulling out automatic weapons and
shooting in the crowds, because Godknows what you end up with there.

(29:23):
So what do we talk about herein Detroit? What have we talked about
for forty four fucking years of mylife? Fucking sports? It's the safe
thing to talk about. No one'stalking about it. It's kind Yeah,
we're at a low point. I'mkind of wondering if if if they're like,
we can we can not make splashymoves because nobody's hardly paying attention.

(29:48):
And if that's the case, hebetter have a fucking plan in place.
This better not be flying by theseat of his pants. We see we're
flying by the seat of your pants. Has gotten a football program, a
sports program, and that's you ofthem underneath Jesus and Khakis. Because it
was well, hire him and allour problems are solved. Nope, now

(30:11):
we got more problems. We gotmore questions. Even what fucking what is
the identity of one of his fuckinglead teams. He's supposed to be this
quarterback whisper. He's got a fuckingrevolve indoor quarterbacks like Gruden does, So
maybe this is Oh, you're spoiled. Okay, I'll take that hit,

(30:32):
but I don't if that's If that'swhat's going on with the Red Wings,
fire everybody, blow it up,rebuild it from the ground up. I
mean, still, dude, here'sas the person who probably listens to the
most sports talk radio here in Detroitout of all of us, I can

(30:52):
tell you this. There's no excitementfor the Red Wings. There's no excitement
for the Tigers. There is theusual kool ai drinking for the Lions,
and the right everybody else waiting going, yeah, we're gonna make fun of
you when they fucking suck again.You want to call it fourteen and two
again so we can laugh really fuckinghard at you're retarded ass like that type
shit. No one cares about theRed Wings, man, It just don't.

(31:15):
It's just done over with. Andit's like, Okay, if you're
making decisions because you think that thespotlight isn't on you, and it's probably
as far away from you as it'sever been in our in our adult lives
from the Red Wings here in Detroit, you better be making some fucking outstanding
moves underneath the table, because whatwe're seeing, ain't it Sponge customer media

(31:40):
dot net, Customer media dot Netto Spoty again. Last last thing I
can tell you, Rich, Ican't picture Stevie by going into the Joe
or Elsie or whatever you guys wantto call it there now going into that
locker. I'm looking around after spendingall the time doing everything he's done there

(32:05):
as a player, and go allright, well, let's just do a
ticker tape parade and and yay,I'm home and Brad Pitt did Moneyball.
I'm telling you, that's all Ipicture. Takes a hockey stick to the
radio. That's what losing it soundslike. Yeah, that's kind of where

(32:29):
I'm at with him. Uh,you know, it's gonna depend It's gonna
depend on what the illages want tospend and you know what they're able to
spend at the same time. Ijust I think I from everything I know
of Stevie, y player, andand in the office, the man's really

(32:49):
good at what he does. Theman knows hockey. And I gotta trust
when he hires Blashell or he hireswhoever he hires. You know, he
drafts who ever he drafts. Idon't see the future. But I'm not
him to tell you the truth.You know, I pay attention for a
few hours when I watched the hockeygame. But after that, you know,

(33:10):
I'm so well, I mean,I feel that to a certain extent.
Here's my beef. Last the nineteentwenty season was the COVID shortened season.
Seventy one games they won, seventeen. This last season it just went
by. Was a shortened season,I guess due to COVID, but it

(33:31):
wasn't the COVID season. Fifty sixgames total they played, nineteen they won.
You never won less than thirty before. When leave and go to Tampa
Bay? When did he leave toTrait Red Wings? He started working for
Tampa Bay? And hold on,I want to say late two thousands.

(33:57):
Hold on here, Oh, Ijust want to know where he stopped playing.
Oh, stopped playing in two thousandand six. Yeah, mid two
thousands. Okay, So we're comingup on the better half of twenty years
and we're four years away from it, right, So you're coming with a
guy who has a mindset of whathappened there in the nineties all the way

(34:21):
through you know, the early twothousands, coming back fifteen plus years later
going yeah, this ain't it.Okay, So it's a second season,
right, give him a man,it's gonna take a minute to erase fifteen
plus years of bullshit. But thelast really been bullshit. Man, Like,

(34:42):
that's the thing. Oh, I'mjust saying, you can't come back.
No, No, it hasn't.It obviously was crashing those whole years
we're making the playoffs. That's twentyfifteen, man. I mean, it's
understand but it was crashing. Doesn'tmean it crashed. It was going down
obviously because just like dude, withthe Warriors in basketball for five fucking years,

(35:05):
it was you're gonna see the Warriorsin the playoffs too. They're not
even in the playoffs this year.So it's crashing, doesn't mean it crashed.
It's crashing. Give him a minuteto pull back the stick or to
take off on a new airplane.You know, it's gonna just it's it's
gonna take time to write a ship, however you need to say it,
Well, I'm much time. Doyou get though that? I can think

(35:27):
that's kind of what we're getting athere. Okay, going into the third
season, once again, you're talkingabout writing a ship, you're talking about
the overall end product being a StanleyCup competitor. No, No, I'm
talking about just coming back off theground. Your team has crashed. Okay,
well I'm talking about just coming backis the middle of my sentence interrupting

(35:49):
the beginning of yours? Shut up? Thank you. I'm it's white is
it's gonna get today? Okay,can't do this interrupting thing today. All
right, anyways, dude, listento me. This is my point.
You're looking at the end result.What steps is he taking to get to
that result? Hiring Blaschell on anybody'sfucking chart is not a step towards fucking

(36:10):
making them a Stanley Cup contender unlessthey're ship going on behind the scenes.
We don't know about whether it bethe ill is going You got this much
money to spend, that's it,And I think that's probably what's going on,
because let's be honest, why wouldthey dump a ton of money into
a head coach when the two namesthat are being batted around are okay,

(36:31):
yeah, one a former player andfriend of Steve Eisman who took an expansion
team to you or set up anexpansion team for a fucking Stanley Cup final
run in her first year. Butwhat else has he done? And are
you willing to pay him his fuckingnut? And he's gonna fucking want on
a chance that he's gonna lightning isgonna strike twice and towards is a completely

(36:55):
fucking wild card that man benches hisstar layers because they looked at him funny
in the locker room. I don'tthink that's gonna fly with Steve Eiserman.
So that's that's why I'm sitting heregoing I don't know how to feel,
because I feel like we were movingtowards Steve Eiserman making a move, And
that's why they didn't comment on thisship with Blashell for months. He was

(37:21):
a lame duck fucking coach, likepeople were asking and it was just the
question was not being answered. Andwhen it was announced, it was like,
when did they say they announced itagain on eighteenth? Hold on,
let me see if I'm right onthis. No, okay, I thought
they announced it on like a likea like they're doing politics, announced it
Friday night at eight o'clock and hopefullyit'll be out of the news cycle by

(37:45):
Monday. But it was. Itwas a Tuesday, they announced that they'd
resigned him. But I mean,look, obviously it's my team. I
want him to do well, Ireally do, but I don't. I
don't have faith in this move.And that doesn't that doesn't feel I feel
you. I do everything you said, Rich could be one hundred percent.

(38:07):
Again, the Stevie Y era forme has proved on the ice off the
ice in different cities. I'm gonnagive him benefit of the doubt. I
don't have to agree or like anythinghe does. But again, it could
all boil down to what you justsaid about the illages. Look, we're
done spending money on the Red Wings. You got this much, do what

(38:28):
you can and it is good.Sorry, And it is just a ticker
tape parade for Stevie Y and getsome masses of the seats or he's going
to turn this around. And yeah, the end result wanting to be a
Stanley Cup. But right now,let's just get it off the ground.
Let's get back into the playoffs,let's get away from the bottom of the
league. That you know, Let'slet's get up and plan, but let's

(38:52):
land and not crash. One lastthing I'll throw in there that if you
remember this Sotty Bowman years and youknow how Scottie Bowman is and was as
a head coach. This makes perfectsense that that Isiserman picked up this trait
from Bowman and has carried it intohis executive career. Arguably, the top

(39:14):
two players that were left at theend of the season on the team both
had to go in for fucking well. Larkin's in a neck brace. I'm
not really sure if it was surgeryor just an injury, but he's their
captain and he was out. AndTyler Bertuzzi, who's like, you know,
the grit, the heart, thesoul, that the soul grindline type

(39:36):
guy that they have at the moment. And if you don't count Smith,
and you know, he sat outfor two months and it turns out he
had back surgery two months ago andis recovering from it. And both of
these things were kept under you know, swept under the rug and hush hush
in the organization. It didn't leakout until the season was over. So

(39:58):
you know what that tells me,they're very good at keeping their mouth shutting
that organization. That's something they learnedfrom Bowman. Bowman was a master of
oh, Eisman won't play tonight's game. What's wrong with them? Upper body
injury? And that was all hewas gonna say. You could sit there
and ask him fifteen different times,and he just looked at you like you're

(40:19):
retarded, because he's gonna tell youyou asked me a question sixteen times.
The first time I gave you theonly answer you're gonna get. You can
rephrase the question as many times asyou want. You have your answer.
I will not justify your question withanother next question. That was Bowman.
So maybe maybe we don't see everything. Maybe there's a lot going beyond behind

(40:40):
the curtain. I sure as fuckhope. So I really do, I
really really do. I mean,it's kind of like and when I say
I don't have faith in this move, that doesn't mean I don't have hope.
Of course I have hope. I'ma fucking fan, But most sports
fans, let's be honest, getused to fucking losing. You have to

(41:02):
You're going You're not going to routefor the team that's always going to win
the championship. Even if you hopfrom bandwagon to bandwagon, you're gonna make
a mistake one season in one sport. I don't know. I just I
hope there's more going on behind thescenes. I'm afraid there isn't. I'm
afraid this is because you have toremember, man, not only do you

(41:25):
have the Red Wings long ass streakof playoff appearances that's now six years fucking
dead, or you know, sixplayoff seasons dead, whatever, but you
also have all the fucking contracts anddead money that they're still responsible for from
the Ken Holland era. I mean, dude, at the trade deadline,

(41:46):
they were willing to take on peoplewho were on the last year of their
contracts. The teams were looking toshed for fucking next season, you know,
to get some money off the booksfor half room, because they knew,
hey, we'll take your burden,but you're gonna also gonna have to
give us some high draft picks.Take your burden to me. That's that's

(42:08):
that's not a rebuild. You don'ttrade for someone who's on the last year
of their contract you have no intentof resigning, but you get a bunch
of draft picks, you know whatI'm saying. That's you're not trading for
that missing piece, the final pieceof the puzzle, like this is still
a full on rebuild. The problemis, I don't know if this is

(42:29):
the media in this in this town, or if this is the PR Department
getting it wrong here. And they'vebeen preaching this ship to West to Westland
fans, to red wing fans sinceEisman came back two three years. You'll
see you're gonna be blown away.Okay, we're done with two and I'm
not blown away. They got onemore shot, all right, And I'm

(42:50):
gonna tell you what if we're sittinghere with twenty one wins at the end
of the next season and Blash willstill his head coach, I don't give
a fuck how much good will Eisermanhas built up in this town. You're
going to start seeing the pitchforks andthe torches come out, period and the
story. If you need any otherproof, Jesus and Khakis, the prodigal
son can return and he can beshown the door very quickly. Rich You

(43:15):
sound like you Your sentiments sound exactlyhow I feel about the Lions this year,
like it exactly exactly like granted they'reonly they're not even a year into
their whole thing, But as faras my attitude towards the Lions. That
is exactly how I feel like,I'm not sure what's going on. I'm
a fan, but I am not. I am not encouraged. I hope
I'm wrong, I really, Ireally do. I don't want to be

(43:37):
right, but I've I've watched enoughhockey. I know that it's not like
it was twenty thirty two. Ffuck that he was like it was fifteen
years ago, like with the salarycap and the changes in the way that
the game is played on the icechanging in a way it's called old.

(44:01):
I don't know if this I'm afraidthe Red Wings are still trying to pull
their like the lower half of theirbody out of the fucking pre two thousands
lockout mentality that you know that thathas the grip on him, like like
Quicksand because Eiserman obviously he embraced itwhen he went to to Tampa Bay,

(44:24):
he understood, but Tampa Bay didn'thave the baggage that Detroit did when he
came back. And I mean,and by the way, just so everyone's
aware, like I know this getslost in Eiserman's post playing career international play.
He's the one to put all thoseteams together that won the Gold Medals.
All right, he fucking has embracedthe salary cap. He's only ever

(44:49):
been an executive underneath the new salarythe new fifteen years now but new still
salary cap rules. So he's notin that Ken Holland mindset. You know,
let's trade away our fucking future andget this guy with this ridiculous contract,
because fuck it, we got moneyto spend. No, No,
you got a cap. You gottaworry about it. You gotta worry about

(45:09):
dead money against that cap. Yougotta worry about rolling that money over and
the next season, you know,it becomes an entire you won't end up
higher. It's like that movie DraftDay. What's her face, Ben Affleck's
ex wife, the fine ass Garner? Yes, yeah, Hall, that

(45:29):
girl's got a prime cut of ashfor fucking as white as she is.
I'm telling you bite that develop lockshawand be dragged. What's in your wallet?
My cock? I want to putsomething her ham wallet, that's for
sure. But uh, yeah shewas. If you will go back and
watch that movie, her job wasto make the salary cap work. Like

(45:51):
there's a few times that Kevin Costner'scharacters talking, He's like, can we
make this trade salary cap wise,and she's like, hold on the set.
She gets on her laptop or she'son her phone, she's like,
yeah, we can do it.There's whole fucking there's whole divisions that have
now been hired in to deal withthis shit. Eiserman has came up and
got his feet wet in that environment, So I have faith in that.

(46:15):
I don't think the salary cap isgonna be the thing that's gonna fuck him.
I honestly think the thing is gonnafuck the Red Wings in this rebuild
is the draft lottery. The NHLhas already proven they're the most uns scrupulous
cocksuckers when it comes. They gavethe number one overall draft pick to a
team in the fucking playoffs last year. Okay, it's all you need to
fucking know. Yeah, the lottery'sdumb. I hated in the NHL,

(46:37):
I hated in the NBA, allright. I mean, you're guarantee how
many fucking times in the last tentwelve years did Edmonton get the fucking number
one pick And they fucking blow theirload and get nothing for it, and
they've they've done nothing with it.All right, But you're gonna tell me
that against all odds, getting struckby lightning back to back, one second

(46:59):
apart, standing in the same spotthat they constantly got the fuck. Okay,
I'm sorry. I I don't wantto go down that road because I'll
have to break up my tinfoil threepiece suit. But I mean, it's
just it's where, whether it's fixedor not, it's bullshit. If a
team is The fucking New York Islandershave been historically bad since they rattled off

(47:20):
four back to back to back toback Cups in the late seventies and early
eighties. There's no excuse for that. Well, there is an excuse for
it, because their ownership situation wasfucked in the fucking nineties. There's a
whole thirty for thirty about a guywho faked his way into buying the team,
literally bought the team with no money, redesigned the uniforms, brought in

(47:45):
Mark Messier, all of that,and he didn't He didn't fucking spend any
of his fucking money. He neverbought the team. That's how desperate they
were to get that team back ontheir fucking legs. They basically said,
are you good for it? Here? You go, I would I could
get that type of deal you broughtup wrote on a bar napkin, I

(48:05):
owe you one hockey Franchi team.Yeah, that's exactly how it went down.
I'm thinking over many many empty beerssitting around because who's sober would come
by the team. Yeah, butno, man, I mean I wish

(48:28):
that would happen to Detroit Lions andRobert will end up owning it. It'll
be like it'll be like Elon Muskends up owning it and he's like,
I'm gonna send the Lions to themoon. Yeah, Like good, why
keep them there? They could bethe moon Lions. We can get a
new team. We've a spansion team, we start all over. Look,

(48:50):
mister Musk, there's only two thingsI'm interested in about you, and that's,
uh, are you gonna give mean electric car? If I shout
you out on my podcast, shoutout to Elon Musk like electric cars too?
And two, can I smell yourdick because you fucked Amber? What's
her face? Johnny sex wife?Yeah? Oh deterred it slides out of

(49:14):
that cutter. If it's as nicelooking as the turd cutter itself, I'm
good with it. She shit thebed all day. But no, it's
just like yeah, yeah, likethat's it, bro, that's it.
And he really don't have shit todo except for he's the figurehead of his
fucking company. Can I The daysof him burning the midnight oil and burning
the candle at both ends to getan electric vehicle to work are done and

(49:36):
over with. He pays people todo that shit, you know what I'm
saying. So, but yeah,it's going to be interesting. And judging
how the playoffs are going, Um, I'm just gonna go ahead and take
this hit and say this. Iofficially I should have done this years ago.

(49:59):
I officially reside as the show experton hockey because I'm looking at these
hockey playoffs results going what the fuck? Who dude? Seriously? Okay,
first of all, let's just getthis over with. Wasn't this the year
the crazy the COVID divisions? Yeah? Like, is everything gonna be readjusted
next year? They're gonna roll withus for a while? Do we know

(50:20):
that? I believe it depends onwhat Canada does, because Canada is the
major one. All the Canadian teams, Canada basically for all the ship we
got about our borders. Canada waslike, COVID, Fuck, you ain't
coming in our country. We don'tget fun who you are. We don't

(50:42):
like they threw out the NBA WorldChampions, Get the fuck out later,
Raptors. They were playing in fuckingTampa Bay. Yep, sure was so,
I mean, it's it's up toCanada. And if Canada is gonna
be all fucking cuking and fucking draggingtheir feet about open, then and we're
next season rolls around. Yeah,there's probably going to be an All Canada

(51:06):
division, an East, a Central, and a West division in the Lower
North America. That's when I'm gettingat But I mean, like, dude,
I'm sitting here looking at the playoffs, like, yeah, I get
it. Tampa Bay won last yearand ship but and the Blues are one
year removed from winning the Cup andgot swept out by the Avalanche. Now

(51:30):
the Avalanche have made leaps and boundslike forward they are, they're not.
I don't know if any teams willever be what they were in the nineties,
like the Red Wings and Avalanche andshit, because you just you can't
have those teams anymore. You can'tafford them. But in today's NHL.

(51:52):
Oh yeah, as much as Ihate to ain no munch, I've been
hearing that fucking name for the lasttwo seasons and seeing them steadily improved,
and I'm just like, of coursethey got to do this when a the
Red Wings sucked, don't they?Yeah, of course, because you know,
God knows can't can't get back toa good rivalry. But yeah,
Blues see you four swept right thefuck out, still got hammered anyway,

(52:19):
it's the room. Hey, he'sstill hung over again coming down from that
cuplin. He's he's somewhere in Utahcelebrating. Like I heard, there's a
jazz club here, jazz in Utah. All right, pour me another one.
But yeah, then the Boston's gotrid of the Bruins, which I

(52:40):
have to think that this has gotto be the end for Zadeno Chara.
I mean, he he got hebasically came to prominence, as you know,
the hulking blue lion captain for thefucking Bruins in Boston, made his
bones there on his cups, wentto fucking Washington and then gets bounced out

(53:00):
of the playoffs by his former fuckingteam out So it's like, yeah,
and he's gotta be holy. Iwant to say, he's like forty three,
forty two, forty four. Bro, he's my age. He was
born a month before me, almostto the day. It's gotta be the

(53:21):
end for him, right, Well, it depends on who he as.
I know a number sixty eight fromthe Penguins that he'll skate on a pond
somewhere if you gotta puck and isright now probably I mean in former sixty
eight. By the way, NoI mean Yami or Yager Penguins anymore.
It said former sixty eight. Wellit's gonna be retired, so whatever,
fine, its mantics. Well,dude, I mean, it's just I'm

(53:45):
just sitting here, like okay.That's like. Chara was one of the
few fucking players I remember being toutedin like the mid to late nineties who
actually like panned out and was asgood as a lot of people thought he

(54:07):
was going to be. A Charlareminds me of a motherfucker that should never
made the NHL. If you've everseen that motherfucker skate near the start of
his career, um, and Idid. I he was not the one.
I was like that's gonna be theguy that's gonna make it and do
a twenty plus for your career inthe NHL, because I was like,

(54:28):
look at that bowlegg and motherfucker whocan barely skate and he's like six ten,
you know, like it's ridiculous,man, but he's I mean,
you gotta think, just from ahuman point of view, you spend I
mean, he got traded to Bostonin the two thousand and six, two

(54:51):
thousand and seven or he went toBoston before the six h seven season,
played for him up until you know, last season, except for that lockout
shorted season. He played in KHLfor a little bit. I mean,
dude, he leaves his fucking yeah. Okay, the Islanders drafted him and
he spent some time with Ottawa andblah blah blah, but he's known as

(55:15):
a Bruin. He leaves the Bruins, goes through their like absolute fucking rivals
at the moment, and gets bouncedout unceremoniously. Yeah, you know,
I'm just like, yeah, okay, I mean, kind of an anti
climatic way to end your career.Because I'm pretty sure when he went to

(55:36):
Washington he thought, well, atleast I'm gonna have a chance at a
deep Cup from Nope, he raninto Team Bro to change gears just a
little bit. But at the sametime, it's the age of the ancient
athlete. We have any question again, it's the age of the ancient athlete.

(56:07):
For for anything. We got aforty something year old, Oh,
did you do realize you're using likeyou're trying to use a metaphor that has
like the same word in it thatyou're like, I get it. It's
the era of the ancient athlete,got you? Okay? Well, it's
it's probably a nod to medical scienceand how things things have come far in

(56:30):
training rooms and shit like that.I mean, like, yeah, t
B, you have to he's outof this equation. He's just a freak,
all right, He's he's not ofthis earth. But no, I
mean what Celio. Celio's probably stillbe playing if they'd let him. That's
true. But also he's playing inlike some beer League and fucking Russia right

(56:53):
now, jes So he could stillbe playing. That's who I was talking
about. If you had a puck, he would skate on a pot of
a flying fuck. As long asyou get paid. I mean, dude,
there's something to what you're saying.And I mean, let's be honest.
Training the way they've they've figured outhow to train saves a lot of
guys wear and tear on their jointsand shit, there's a lot more.

(57:15):
Instead of we want bulk, it'swe want flexibility. We want long,
lean muscles, especially NHL speed.That's always been the speed kills in the
NHL period, end of story,you know, and that's always been that
way. But I mean, ifyou look like, yeah, you got
guys playing a lot, fucking alot, dude, Patrick Patrick Marlowe just

(57:37):
passed Gordy Howe for all times NHLgames played leader. I never thought that
would be broken. That's like Gretzkyscoring record. I'm not talking goals or
assists. I'm talking points record.I don't I can't imagine they'll ever be
broken. And believe me, Iheard so much shit talked about little miss

(57:59):
Crosby before where she came to theNHL, and it's just like, no,
she ain't gonna do it. Andon top of that, I was
like, even the first fucking seasonthat Ovechkin and Crosbie were in the NHL.
I looked at every one of myhockey friends and said, I'll take
Oveshkin. You go ahead and haveCrosbie. Well, Crosby's gonna break old

(58:19):
Grotzky's records. No, he ain't. Night. He might win more Cups,
but overall, I'll take the wayOveshkin plays over Crosbie. The only
record Crosby's gonna break is how manytimes he cries. Yeah, that ship
has sailed Crosbie's. He's closer toretirement than he is to coming in the
league. And if you're gonna breakthese records, you better get moving.

(58:44):
When I was when I was askingyou, it was the leading question.
Do your freaking golfer at fifty?Damn it? Oh? Well, yeah,
we well. The only thing Iwant to say about the playoffs real
quick is um uh, Oilers,what the fuck are you doing? Bro?
You're about to be swept by theJets. The Jets go sit in
a corner. Cancy's Hockey's canceled foryou until you learn how to take this

(59:07):
puck. I'm gonna hold on toit so you know how to be Yeah,
you're out of You're on time out. Like obviously, the Oilers crave
the naughty step because they are like, what the fuck are you doing?
Dude? You had a four onelead and you lost five to four in
overtime. This could have been yourmoment to start your your your your momentous

(59:28):
come back and raise up the providenceof Alberta. And what'd you do?
You played like the Oilers. Sothank you for being you. You can
always count on you to be you. And then you know the rest of
it. Predators, Hurricanes, Tide, both teams that don't give a fuck
about uh Vegas. Looks like they'regetting past the wild which is hilarious to

(59:49):
me because fucking Minnesota with their bullshit, what about seven eight years ago?
Oh yeah, we're gonna focus sidethe best fe agent, defenseman and forward
we can in the off season andit's going to lead us to the Promised
Land. Ain't leg you to shit. Thank you for signing them though,
because the Red Wings we're talking aboutsigning them and that could have been that

(01:00:10):
could have been bad. So thankyou for taking that out of the equation.
And then yeah, Lightning Panthers,Panthers up three one. Last game
I watched six two Panthers one orLightning one they seem to be doing pretty
well, and the Penguins and Islandersare tied, which is funny because if

(01:00:32):
Ovechkin gets knocked out by Boston andCindy gets knocked out by the fucking Islanders,
of all teams, the Island,Oh my god, this is the
nineteen eighty two. That's what I'msaying. Jesus, I haven't heard them,
haven't heard their name near the playoffsin a long fucking time. But

(01:00:52):
yeah, uh, the way theway the ship is because of COVID,
shits all fucked up. And yeah, I mean they've restructured how they do
the playoffs. I don't like it. I'm not the only one. I'm
glad to hear people like Darren McCartyand Tay Domi and Mark Rerecky speak up

(01:01:13):
and go what the fuck are youdoing? It was perfectly fine the way
it was. The one seed playsthe eight seed, two seed plays the
seventh seed. It was perfectly fine. Now you got first round of playoffs,
you have natural fucking division rivals playingeach other. You're blowing your load
at the beginning of the fucking playoffs. Man, there was a reason you

(01:01:34):
never saw the Red Wings and theAvalanche play each other in the first fucking
round because I mean basically, forwhat a three four year period there,
the Cup went through one of thosetwo cities. You would believe me,
ESPN enjoyed their best ratings when theRed Wings played the Avalanche. Still weren't
great ratings, but they enjoyed thebest ratings when those two played on ESPN.
So it's like, it is whatit is with hockey, but it

(01:01:59):
is playoff hockey and it is excitingto an extent. So I'm yea small
yea for me, sport customer mediadot net, custoper media dot net,
sporty all right, So anyways,yeah, old people winning fucking uh golf

(01:02:21):
shocking right now. We don't talkgolf too much on this show, but
yeah, over the weekend, uha guy who is uh who's who's ultible
for the Seniors Tour? Phil Mickelson, fifty years old whinn the PGA Championship.
There's dude's out there half his ageand he whooped them all weekend.
Never was in it, never wasbehind. So just you know, hey,

(01:02:45):
it doesn't shout out to the oldpeople. Really I wanted to say
about it. I mean, likethat's I mean, yeah, dude,
he was like ahead. If anybodyknows anything, I know very very little
about the procol Association. I can't. I know the microphone's hot. I've
actually started watching this year whatever,But um Phil looks different, even in

(01:03:08):
his prime, he doesn't look likehe looks today. Is the pen before
you, before you go into it? Is just another uh patent applied for
pending earl iceman. Yes, becauseI haven't heard any I think what he's
about today. Yes, yes,this is an ice moment. I think

(01:03:29):
this is your tinfoil hat moment.No, no, because you my fuckers
are gonna go back and look atthe pictures. Phil Mickelson when he picks
up the trophy has biceps. AndI know that most of the listeners don't
know who I am, but hehas biceps that rival mine. Maybe he's
no, Phil had a gut thatrivaled mine. Old dudes, old dudes

(01:03:52):
glob up. They need that testosterone. Maybe he's doing that, or maybe
just don't know what the hell?Maybe how about that he here's the thing.
I don't know what he's doing,but he's doing something because he's slimming
trim and has biceleps, like,well, that's all I'm saying. That's
a you can look at the picturesfrom his from his prime and look at
the pictures of when he won thischampionship and go, oh a the fuck

(01:04:15):
it's it's reminiscent of Mark McGuire forme, really, really is it is
a totally different person. You know, what's interesting about your theory is if
it's true, then that just provesthat the Pro Golf Association Tour or whatever
is twenty five years behind the times. And by that I mean there should

(01:04:38):
be no peeds that they could stickin their body that hasn't been created in
the last year or two in alab somewhere that they can't detect. But
even so, go ahead, sorry, Well, even the cheating that goes
on in baseball now is moved awayfrom at least with pictures from peed into

(01:05:00):
whatever substance gives them more RPMs ontheir throne balls, and you have pictures
who by the way, this issome real nerd shit. RPMs is spent
on the ball obviously revolutions per minute. I can't remember the name of the
picture off the top of my head, but played four Cincinnati last year.

(01:05:25):
Real cocky motherfucker. But apparently he'scome up with some sort of sticky substance
that he could put on his fingersand it skirts the rules or like flirts
with bending the rules or breaking therules, I guess. But long story
short, it gives them an extrathree hundred to four hundred revolutions permitted on
his fucking on his balls that hethrows. Other pictures have picked up on.

(01:05:50):
Now. The reason that Major LeagueBaseball can't catch him is because you
got to go out to the moundand be like, show me what your
fucking hand like. They're putting thisshit on their fucking forearms, or putting
this shit on the on the onthe you know where their hat sits against
their heads, so when they adjusttheir hat, they can get it on
there, get it on their fingers, get their fingers tacky, give them
a little bit more spin on theirball, making it harder to hit.

(01:06:11):
So what I'm saying is, ifhe's pumping fucking steroids like it's nineteen ninety
five, then the PGA is woefullybehind the times. Because I'm gonna go
with me, we can test allthat shit. I don't know what the
man's doing. But I'll tell youwhat. When he was playing with Tiger
Woods in his prime, Phil Mickisonlooked like Daily. All right. I

(01:06:32):
don't know if y'all know who Daily. Yeah, but he's he's always had
it out a gun, you know, he's had a dad bot even look
like John Daily. That's extreme todayin today's playing when he won this freaking
championship, he looks like Tiger Woods. But how the fuck? But you
could? You could? You canjuice all you want, dude, It's

(01:06:55):
oh god, I'm being one ofthose callers in sports radio. No,
if someone who plays a game,it's only gonna help you off the tea,
Like juicing is not gonna was great. The game is won and lost.
But the game it's like Barry Bonds. Why did Barry Bonds juice?
Barry Bonds was the ship before heeven touched The game is won and lost.

(01:07:15):
Around the green is what I'm gettingat. He can drive, He
could drive the green on every hole, or he could drive to fifty yards
from the hole every hole. Ifpds aren't helping you with with chipping and
pitching and putting, no, absolutely, but but now you're just making the
the argument that it's okay if youjuice or not, because if he has
no short game, he can't winthat trash. He's always had a short

(01:07:39):
game. He was drive seven onSaturday. That's like, dude, almost
a birdie got half the course andit's not by short game, it's by
getting close to the hole and realquick, I just want to point something
out. Um, Phil Mickelson wason Entourage back in the day, like
ten years ago, and I lookedup him ten years ago. Then I

(01:08:02):
looked him up from fifteen years ago, and I looked him up from five
years ago and recently. Bro,he's pretty much the same build. You're
seeing. Shit, nobody else isseeing sixty three, and he's fluctuated between
one ninety two two h five.That's according to every fucking thing I'm reading
on him, all these fucking crazyass fucking shaber metrics or whatever the fuck

(01:08:26):
golf sites I'm looking at. Theybelieve me. They take all this shit
into considerations. So maybe he justhit the gym during Maybe he's say he
does season and just hit the fuckinggym, and the dude, he's very
good. He's got if you've hita Bryson d Shamba. That guy is
my favorite golfer right now. Hisnickname is the Scientist. He's a physics
major from Stanford. He does allthis crazy shit, like he has the

(01:08:46):
same size grips on all of hisirons or sorry, the same size shaft
because to him, it's is heuses science in his game. Like he's
got this crazy long putter and heturns his arm into a fucking lever,
like like there's there's all you couldsay, the pgs willfully behind the times
in the PD department, but this, but you know, but there's guys

(01:09:08):
out there like that, Like he'she's pushed the limits on the type of
equipment you can have. Like allof his grips are oversized because he believes
the power comes from your fucking uh, your palms, not holding it in
your fingers. So I mean,I'm just you know, maybe Phil,
we're seeing the game changing like that. Just be like, I'm fifty,
I'm eligible for the Seniors Tour.Maybe i gotta get in the fucking gym

(01:09:28):
if I'm gonna be competing with guys. You know, there's guys out there
that are less than that are morethan younger than I had, Like you
know he's fifty. There's twenty threetwenty four year olds on the tour.
All right, Look, guys,when he started is through his career and
rich you were looking up the statsand everything. That's fine. Through his
career, he looked a certain way. Today, I was looking up him,

(01:09:54):
not stats pictures. Okay, helooks exactly the same. He never
had a fucking dad bob that you'redescribing. And I looked at that you're
looking at. Okay, I justI got Google images. I have literally
hundreds of pictures of him over theyears. I'm not seeing anything where Okay,

(01:10:16):
hold on here, I'll send youthe one picture. Whether he's casting
a shadow that might actually be agut and that's the closest to a fucking
gut as your claim is. Andyou tell me, you tell me,
Chris, because I know he ain'tgonna reverse himself no matter what, because
that's just the red friend in him. And you tell me if that's not
a fucking shadow on that picture.I just said, because you can clearly

(01:10:41):
see his arm in the shadow,that's not all gut. That's a fucking
shadow on his left arm. Andthat's that's the picture he looks the fattest
in that I found out of thehundreds I've scrolled through. So it look
I'm just saying, man going bysaying, oh and by the way,
there's also fucking pictures of him workingout in with fucking freeweights and shit like

(01:11:03):
it's nineteen fucking fifty something. Soapparently from that picture, from that picture
that you sent Rich, you're saying, looking at that picture, all right,
compared to what he looks like today, there's no difference. I don't
know. I don't know if thatpicture is from today or not. That's

(01:11:24):
just from him from today. Imean, I'm looking I'm looking at the
pictures of him into news stories.Turn your fucking shit off, Jesus,
if it's your first podcast and youneed to be told how to fucking podcast
press one, okay, all right, Like, dude, I'm looking at
a picture of him from winning.I don't see a gut and I got

(01:11:45):
one. I don't even see afucking Chris gut, okay, and he
his gut is more dad gut.I got the dad fucking peril, you
know what I'm saying. So likeI don't I don't see it. I'm
here recent picture Phil Nick Michelson.Here you go, here's a picture showing
the differences in him. And Iknow this makes great podcasting. Can post?

(01:12:09):
I can post them on fucking lineas we all search for visual aids.
Yeah, and here it is.Phil Nilson reveals the two secrets,
but behind his weight loss transformation.Look at the two pictures. You tell
me which ones which? The leftones today, the right ones before?
Okay, okay? What and agut a gut unless I guess we're gonna

(01:12:30):
have to get into semantics. Agut to me hangs over something. There
ain't nothing hanging over in either ofthose pictures except for his fucking shirt.
It's a little untaught. He stilllooks like, I mean, why are
you body shaming Phil Mickelson. Ice. It's twenty sixty three and at his
heaviest he was two hundred and fivepounds. I'll take all day fat.
Yeah, he sounds like a guyall day. He sounds like a guy

(01:12:54):
who struggles with losing you know,ten to twenty every now and then.
Muscle weighs more than fat. That'sall I'm saying. I could be brong,
I could be I'm just saying here'smy point. I don't care.
I've already made it clear. Puthim in mex suits. Have him kill
each other and rip each other's headsout of their fucking body on the if

(01:13:15):
they if they agree to it andsign a contract and take a paycheck for
it, I'm smart enough to watchthem kill each other. So you want
to fucking dope these motherfuckers up andget these pittuary retards bashing each other's heads
in on rocks. Hey, ifit's entertaining, I'll watch. I don't
give a fuck, so I'm not. There's no I don't care if he's
on peeds. My point is,if he's on peeds and the PGA ain't

(01:13:42):
catching his ass, what the fuckare they doing with their testing program?
That's what I want to know.I don't know if it's p ds,
HGH, some chemicals. I don'tknow. If he's done it natural.
Start taking testosterone, guys our starttaking testosterone. I mean, the thing
is, I don't believe he didit natural. And that's me Number two.

(01:14:03):
The other problem I have with golf, there's a lot of fucking luck
involved. I'd play with some guysevery week. Definitely, you can hit
a ball, but there's zero win. The next thing, you know,
twenty mile an hour wind, here'syour ball far to the real dude,
Dude, I golf every week.I play with guys who are way better
than me. No, no,this is this is akin to me saying

(01:14:28):
all NASCAR is turning left. No, dude, there's there is. Definitely
if golf was that easy, allthese there'd be there'd be so many motherfuckers
on the tour. No, man, there is it was easy. I
said there was a lot of luckinvolved. There's luck involved in any sport.
I mean we can, we canget gonna talk to play in games.
I'm not going to bat with thisone. Just for me. There's

(01:14:50):
a lot of luck, all right. The weather has a huge factor on
that game. You play the windfor starters. If there's if the winds
coming atcha you club up, win'sgoing with you? Your club down?
I mean it's right and plenty ofall the changers mid slice and next thing
you know, your balls in thefucking forest. No, I'm good,
all right, club pro ice show. Well, if you want to talk

(01:15:14):
about luck, let's talk about thatplay in game. Lebron finally comes crew
through in the clutch, and I'mof the opinion only because he didn't have
time to pass. But well,the only thing I know about the play
in game and Lebron is he waspitching about the format, that he didn't
like the play in game, thathe was champion last season, Like that's
the thing show, And unless Iread it, unless I read a wrong

(01:15:38):
just a flat out lie or flatout wrong article talking about that, I'm
like, maybe he said, fuckit, I better step up because if
I don't, I'm look like ajackass for saying that this is bullshit and
we can't even play in we can'teven win a play in game. That's
the only thing I could think,just beyond well, you look the whole

(01:15:59):
thing with the Lakers and the playinggame. They got lucky. It happens
um obviously, and I called iteveryone. The Warriors are who I said
they were. They're not the sameWithout Clay, you double team stuff,
you get past the Warriors. Goodfricking job. The Lakers weren't the only
team to do it. Milwaukee didit the next day and now they're not

(01:16:23):
in the playoffs. Look, Lebron, the only reason he's upset is because
he has to play the Phoenix Suns. The Phoenix Suns are playing this like
it's nineteen ninety two, right,all right, parts out there, Seriously,
they don't give a shit that you'rethe la defending champion Lakers and you
got Lebron and you got this bigone brown motherfucker. They don't care.

(01:16:45):
Well, they're riding momentum right nowtoo. They're the hottest team in the
Laite they are, and they putLebron and everybody else on the floor.
They don't give a flying fuck.And that's what Lebron scared about. And
the Laker fans, I honestly,they should be scared him think they are.

(01:17:08):
Especially last year they were such adominating force and this year, yeah,
they had to limp in. I'mwith you there, Ice, Well,
who forgive my ignorance considered? Isent the fucking article. Who was
the player in baseball that took thefastball in the face? I was bleeding
over the places this last week.Kevin Polar Okay, he was. He

(01:17:29):
took almost one hundred mile prour fastballin the face, was gushing blood out
of his face, got hit theground and got back up on his feet
and under thirty seconds. Well,Broun gets poked in the eye and he's
laying on his back crying for aminute and a half. Yeah, and
talked about he was seeing multiple rims. I think I think the whole sports

(01:17:51):
world called him on. It waslike, dude, you're old, you
were fucking milking that you needed arest. Oh, absolutely, dude,
I've I've looked. I was.It's a long story. It was night
I was in I was at ahouse. I did not know the layout
of the yard I was. Therewas no light out. I was coming
around a corner just before I waswearing glasses and I walked right in,

(01:18:14):
right in to a fucking branch thatwent right into my right eye. And
when I was in the emergency room, they were like, if that a
went like less than a centimeter deeper, you'd be an emergency surgery. We'd
be trying to save your eye letalone. You probably would never see out
that eye again. I dude,it dropped me when it branch poked me
in the fucking eye, clear asday, like unobstructed. Oh dude,

(01:18:38):
it dropped me to my knees.But I damn sure it didn't roll around
on the ground for ninety seconds soI'm just saying, you know, but
look today today, eight years ago, my first wife passed away, and
after taking care of business that night, I got so fucking hammered. I
wound up in bushes plural, andI was scratched and scraped and I was

(01:19:04):
basically impaled by these bushes that Irolled out of and walked away from.
And I'm like literally turned around andasked a friend of ours, but who
put that there? And it wasmy hoss. So yeah, I don't

(01:19:24):
getting poked in the eye. Andthen oh I can't see. Shut up,
you're paid to see. I mean, look, man, I get
it. Whatever. He ain't nofucking spring Chicken. He's not gonna fucking
put the team. He's not thisguy. We've talked about this add nauseum
to the point where I hate bothof you forever fucking bringing his name up.
Die slow motherfuckers. But anyways,I just it is what it is,

(01:19:48):
man, that's all. He ain'tputting the fucking team on his back.
He ain't fucking he ain't Jordan,he ain't this. He He's was
the best for his time period,for a period of time, and now
well he's you're coming down the otherside of the mountain, dude, period
and the story and to be tobe brutally honest with you, the sooner

(01:20:11):
he's out of the enna an NBA, the happier I'll be because people like
you, Earl, will have toshut the fuck up and stop acting like
you even give a fuck about thisfucking bullshit sport anymore. Because no,
no, no, because I don'tno, no, no, I've I've
got for too many motherfuckers. Allthey got to say about the NBA is
Lebron, Lebron sucks, Lebron's great, Lebron's this, Lebron's that, And

(01:20:35):
it's like, dude, I'm overit. He ain't Jordan. Okay,
the entire league celebrated when Jordan pickedup a baseball bat. The entire league
don't give a fuck what Lebron does. That league he has moved on from
him at this point, around thetime of the decision, Yes, the
whole fucking world of basketball was hangingon his next fucking word. Absolutely.

(01:21:00):
That was eleven fucking years ago.Guys, time waits for no man.
So I I just bounce his asswith his shitty, fucking overrated team out
of the fucking playoffs that we allthe fucking fair weather Lebron lovers and haters
can either go fuck off and thereal people can watch the fucking sport,

(01:21:25):
or we can get down to like, who's actually fucking worthy of winning a
championship in the NBA right now?Because this is just tiresome to me.
Man. It's like it's like it'slike two three years ago. Every time
you brought up to NHL, someonehad to bring up fucking Kaepernick, and
I'm just like, I'm over it, dude, I don't care anymore.
Shut up about him, and ain'tyou it's everybody stopped acting like he's the

(01:21:53):
fucking second coming. He hasn't beenthat for a decade. You are picking
the wrong week to have that attitude. I don't give the fuck what he's
doing now. Who gives a shit? Tim Tebow got signed baby, oh
oh yeah, everybody you're talking about, well, well, you know,
yep. And just like Kaepernick hadthe top selling jersey and he wasn't even

(01:22:17):
in the NFL after he signed thatcontract. When Nike, Tebow's got what
a jersey and the top his jersey'sin the top five sellers, and you
know what those people aren't buying thosejerseys because they support those people. They're
buying those jerseys to piss off otherpeople. That's all it is. Everybody
who fucking had no problem with Tebowfucking kneeling and praying and being all pious

(01:22:42):
in the fucking public eye when outand bought a jersey and is gonna rub
it. And everybody who's wearing aBlack Lives Matter or fucking Colin Kaepernick jersey's
face, Hey, when's the lasttime your guy threw a fucking football that
mattered? Huh? Yeah, when'sthe last time he was in a huddle
that that that that anything was atstake in? Huh? And the people
buying the Colin Kaepernick jerseys were doingthe same ship, dude. Colin,

(01:23:03):
Tim Tebow and Colin Kaepernick jerseys aregoing to become the NFL equivalent of mask.
Mask. After the vaccination, I'veheard people say I'm fully vaccinated,
but I don't want to not wearmy mask or to wear a mask because

(01:23:24):
I don't want people to think I'ma Republican or a Democrat. This is
something that can kill you. Now. I hope your vaccine was a placebo
and you don't wear a mask andyou die painfully choking on your own fucking
flegm and spit because that's what youdeserve, and please do so before you
shoot that rancid seaman into the passingwomb of some fucking lot lizard at the

(01:23:48):
fucking Flying Jay. Okay, Anthonycares. No, it's such bullshit.
I'm like, it's absolute horseshit.You can't even buy a fucking jersey of
a player you like without it beingsome politic, giant political statement to a

(01:24:08):
group of people who really don't givea fuck. I'm that rich on that
I'm gonna buy me and Chris thejersey next season. It's gonna be a
Lion's jersey. It's gonna say Joneson the back. Julio, No,
he's going to pants. You thinkthat's all the rumors. He came out

(01:24:28):
this today. He's already requested fora trade. And the hot and heavy
favorite is the pants, obviously thehot and heavy, but they're not hot
and heavy anymore. They don't evenmake the playoffs. We got a team
that's rebuilding that's needed a one,a number one receiver since megatrons laft Okay,
Ice, put on your objective hatfor a minute. I know it's
hard for you, not trying tobe a dick. You're a football player.

(01:24:50):
Someone goes, hey, do youwant to go play in Detroit or
do you want to go play inNew England? Where the fuck are you
gonna go? Okay, then outtoday it will come down to who pays
me more. No bullshit, thebus series, the whatever you want to
say, it's missed in the Patriotsorganization. I'm going with the organization that

(01:25:12):
has six Super Bowls in the lasttwenties. That that ship has sailed.
However you want to say it.The coach is still it's gone. It's
gone. I get what you're saying. But the mentality, the team,
camaraderie, everything it took, thecheating, whatever you want to say in
Patriotville is gone. But if you'reJulio think about it though, too.

(01:25:34):
You're we brought up the sunset ofyour career with mister James. You're the
same thing. If you're Julio Jones, where are you getting a ring quicker
New England or Detroit? Probably,even though like you said, the party's
over in New England, they're stillprobably a lot closer than Detroit is and
he still probably has a better shot. Here's the thing with New England that

(01:25:55):
I don't hear ever from players inDetroit. I forgive my ignorance. I'm
not sure that's why I'm asking this. Is Cam Newton signed for sure to
New England next season? Yes?Okay, yea. Because he come out
and was singing the praises of BillBelichick as a head coach, like saying,

(01:26:20):
he gets me, he understands me, He's one of the best coaches
I've ever played for. Blah blahblah. The back channel shit I heard
about fucking Belichick was never he's aplayer's coach. So if that's true,
maybe maybe there's something left in thetank will Belichick. I mean, he's

(01:26:42):
like he's pulling the Tom Coughlin.He's like, I can't be the hard
ass forever. Marty Schottenheimer never wona Super Bowl and he yelled at everybody
constantly. You know what I'm saying. I mean, like sometimes those hard
asses go, this ain't working anymore. Time to try a new approach,
and it worked, I will say. I mean Cam Newton kind of had
in Carolina a reputation is a awhiny bitch ass and they hear him sing

(01:27:09):
the praises a Belichick. I meanyeah, either you'd say either belichicksened his
approach or Cam Newton toughened himself upto make sure he, you know,
stayed on the Patriots. I'm gonnago this far with you, dude.
For Julio Jones, if winning iskey and money isn't a thing, he
doesn't go to the Lions or thePatriots. He goes to Kansas City.

(01:27:30):
They need a number one wide receiver. They've Tank Kill. What the are
you talking about? Kill? TyreekHill is a slot receiver, dude,
great number touchdowns in his receiving yardsfor the year out of the slot.
He comes out of the slot.He doesn't come out of a wide receiver
position. That's like saying, lookat Kelsey, the best scoring tight end,

(01:27:50):
but he's the fucking tight end.Dude. He's give me a deep
threat, dude, give me somebodyis tight end deep for a minute.
Deep threat? Have you seen thegame film of Hill? That's this whole
game? Are you fucking stop theirdeep threat with Sammy Watkins? Dude?
But what do you what do youmean? Like some of Hill's first like

(01:28:13):
NFL highlights are all deep kens.You imagine trying to guard Tyreek Hill and
Julio Jones. Who do you doublewho the old guy Julio Jones. Okay,
and now you're gonna leave Tyreek Hillthe fucking young cheetah in the middle
of the field. Ye are youinsane? The point who Julio Jones on
the Chiefs They're a dynasty? Wow? Of time stamping that shit? No

(01:28:39):
way, come on, Julio Joneshas been on the field for Atlanta for
fucking ten years. What dynasty isgoing on down there? Fourteen to two?
Baby? Yeah, just saying thisis the This is the two thousand
one version of fourteen and two.As a fucking as a repeated owner of
Julio Jones and fantasy football, hisbeIN problem in or He's got two problems.

(01:29:01):
He can't stay healthy and he's wildlyinconsistent. His number one fucking problem
is he was on Atlanta. That'shis number one problem, dude, and
he knows it, and he saidit, I'm out of here. I
want to win. That's his numberone problem. If I want to win,
I'm not going to Detroit now right. And if I want to win

(01:29:21):
Now, if I'm Atthew the epitomeof my career where I'm about to either
go or stayed for a championship,I'm not going to Detroit, nor am
I going to Patriots to help him. Rebo, I want to win within
the next two to three years,I've got to go. I got shit
to do. I'm going to somebodylike the Chiefs Dallas. Okay. If

(01:29:43):
he goes to the Chiefs, here'sthe thing. He goes to the Chiefs,
he's gonna have to take it.He ain't going to get paid.
You're not going to get to breakthe bank money from the Chiefs at the
end of your career. They're notthat desperate for you to be on your
their team. So it really doesbecome about what does he want? Is
it about money or is it aboutthe ring? Well, stay about okay,

(01:30:10):
And that's what I was about tosay. I would assume someone at
his point in his career, becauseyeah, you can say a lot of
detrimental shit about him. You know, he has hard time staying healthy,
he's inconsistent. He shit to ownin fantasy football because he never finds the
fucking end zone. Yeah, butthat's inside the point and because I've owned
him a few seasons too. Yeah, so you know the pain, Oh

(01:30:34):
yes, very much though, Um, when you're the only person on the
team that gets the ball really kindof hard. Well, look, it's
regardless of that. It doesn't matterone way or the other. He ain't
staying in Atlanta. His failure towin a championship in Atlanta is behind him.

(01:30:55):
Where he signs next is the future. That's what he cares about.
We can sit here and harp onwhy he never won a championship. I
mean, twenty eight and three.You don't get much closer than that.
And watch it slip between your fingers. Dude, third quarterer, you know
what I'm saying. I mean,yeah, that's that's what I'm getting at
here, Like that's the game.That's horrible. And to have a Super

(01:31:20):
Bowl victory in your mouth where youcould almost taste it and snatched from your
mouth like that, I imagine he'sgot a big fucking chip on his shoulder
and he wants to win Now.If he wants to win but getting paid
is important, then I would sayDallas possibility sport Custoper Media dot net,

(01:31:43):
Chustopher Media dot net to sports youif he wants to get paid and win.
Then you go to Saint Louis.You go somewhere that's already set,
and they need a couple of pieces. What's he gonna do? In St.
Louis? Los Angeles go to Dallas. They have fas sports fans.

(01:32:14):
They need a receiver. Dallas doesnot have a receiver. They need a
receivers needs everything. They need areceiver. They need a defense, an
entire fucking defense. They need anoffensive line. Dallas is in need of
a lot of things. They gotDak and Zeke like they've always had.
And then okay, no, intendyeah exactly. So you if you need

(01:32:38):
to win buck get paid. Yougo somewhere that set for you to make
that and and the Rams, theRams are ready, even the Chargers are
coming up with their new quarterback homageto fucking Chris. We're calling that ship.
That kid is way the fuck abovewhere you're supposed to be. Um,
you go somewhere that's already set.But they need a piece of three,

(01:33:00):
and then you'll get paid and you'llget your championship. How you doing
have fun? Hope? What you'relooking at and what you're going to be
scared about? Right now to sayI'm done in Atlanta right now. I
want to win. Then you gottago someplace that's gonna give you that chance
next year. Next year, you'renot going to get paid, but you
will get a championship. If yougo to Tampa Bay and or case he

(01:33:23):
would be that missing piece. He'sabove he's above ab so he would get
all the balls he wants from Brady. And he's the very very good a
company to Tyreek Hill, so he'llget the balls in case those two teams
with Julio Jones wins, period,that's it. But if you need to

(01:33:44):
get paid, you need to gosomeplace looking for a couple of pieces to
make them to the level of Caseyand or Tampa Bay. Then you'll get
your money a little bit more thanyou would if you went to the Patriots,
who's rebuilding, and you'll get yourring, which the lines will never
get anyway. I mean, dude, I think it's safe to say if
he goes to the Rams and theywent a fucking super Bowl, then I

(01:34:09):
really hope the police departments in Detroitand Atlanta are ready for the fallout,
because then you've got two guys whohad to leave the teams that fucking they're
associated the only pro teams they've beenassociated with. Go out to some fucking
team that just relocated two seconds agoand win a goddamn Super Bowl. I

(01:34:30):
mean, dude, we hear bitchingand crying about fucking the quarterback here in
Detroit when they're doing well. Tradethe quarterback and he go win the Super
Bowl. And I mean, like, especially if Julio Jones is added,
because you know what you're gonna hearnon stop here in Detroit. If Detroit
would have just got that one piece, Like, he didn't have Megatron for
a decade, yeah, and hedidn't have Barry Sanders for a decade before

(01:34:55):
that. We had Megatron and thebest defense in the league at the same
time. People forget that, andwhat according to the entire rest of the
league, besides Detroit Lions fans,you had an elite quarterback, you had
one of the best defenses in theleague, the best wide receiver, and
an elite quarterback, and you couldn'teven sniff a playoff win. Sorry,

(01:35:17):
I just know that I'm stuck herein Lyons Country and I'm gonna have to
hear a lot of bitching and cryingand fucking Stafford wins the Super Bowl out
there in La, joking at youlike the nashing of teeth will be legendary
out here. I swear to Godbecause you know him though, justin vern
Lander, how you doing the verynext year he left? What did you

(01:35:42):
do? He went to a loadedteam and just helped him get over the
hump? Come on, now,okay, and that's exactly what Stafford's doing.
You got a killer defense, yougot a great offense. I mean,
because we knew Verlander was good,all right. Verlander had seven awards
while he was with us to provethat he's good. What we're Stafford's we're

(01:36:02):
Stafford's MP Awards. According to theNFL, he was elite. Where's that's
We're Stafford's comeback Player of the Year. Where's where? Where's the wors I
He's gonna eat shit in La andI'm gonna love every second of it because
it's just gonna it's gonna settle thatargument forever. Well, that's what I'm
saying. The worst thing that,the worst thing that can happen is him

(01:36:24):
go out there and win a SuperBowl, because I mean, that's that's
why I said that because the thesaltiness of Lions fans will rot every piece
of metal in the Motor City ifhe wins a Super especially his first fucking
year. Come on now, AndI mean, dude, I don't know

(01:36:45):
how much I I know you're outthere in the fucking Midwest, BFE Bible
Belt type shit, so you can'thear it. I don't know if you've
heard some of the fucking sports talkcall in people, but man, they're
some people drinking real deep on coolaid for fucking uh oh shit, Jared
Goff. And I'm like, whyall we did was exchange quarterbacks monetarily,

(01:37:10):
ability wise. I really think that'sall we did. Like, I mean,
if if you look at his recordoutside of the season he made a
Super Bowl appearance, what the fuckelse has he done? Okay for me
personally, Yeah, yeah, I'veI've heard Jared Goff, I've heard the
new coach of the Lions, allthe talk around there. Here's the problem.

(01:37:32):
The NFL has had this for moons, moons and many many moons.
It comes down to two to three, maybe even four teams all right,
even back in the day it wasthe Bears, it was the forty nine
ers. It was Dallas, youknow, it was this, It was
that. But today, unfortunately orfortunately, you're picking vermacular. It's the

(01:37:57):
Chiefs and the Bucks. All right. You sprinkle a little bit of rams
and and you know, even pulleddown the Seattle Seahawks for a minute.
You know, take a look atthe Cardinals for a second. Are they
ready? But right now the twoteams are Kansas City in Tampa Bay with

(01:38:18):
just because of the talent, allright, that's what it comes down to.
You could say we got the quarterback, they got this, we can
need that. It doesn't matter untiluntil it's your turn. It's never the
Lions turn. Never gonna be theLions turn. Never was the Lions turn
except once. And Chris already mentionedthat with the defense and the receiver in

(01:38:38):
the YadA YadA, and we werejust like, well, we don't want
it. We passed for whatever fuckingreason. All right before it back before
it was Kansas City in Tampa Bay, it was Indie and New England.
You know, it was Dallas versusthe world. You know, So today
in the NFL, you got KansasCity, you got Tampa Bay, and

(01:38:59):
that's it. Everybody else is justlooking up them out so you can call
in and say, we need,we have, we got, we switched
for you. We're talking three tofive, but right now it's Kansas City
and Tampa Base turns at the backof the bus and shut up. Yeah,
I'd be real careful how much youfucking stand for Tampa Bay because once
once Tom Brady's done that, theregoes Tampa Bay's fucking time. I don't

(01:39:23):
think they got the next tom Brady'ssitting on the bench behind him. But
come up, they also have butthey also have all the pieces they need.
They have the defense, they havethe offense. There's yeah, they
had them, but four time,no, that's what rich is saying.
Oh they didn't. Are you outof your mind? They still they hadn't
even have Rock. They had Evans, they had Godwin, they had Anthony

(01:39:46):
whatever. They had Rock, theydidn't have four Nette, they didn't have
a by Well, let's be youjust named three guys. Now, well,
they made a difference in the SuperBowl. What did they do during
the regular season. During the regularseason, it was all Evans, it
was all Godwin, it was allRonald Jones. Come on, now,
those are all guys that were therewhat was the last season? What was

(01:40:09):
you're you're on stats? Okay,tell me their stats. What was their
final season stat? How many gamesdid they win? How many games did
they lose? Fourteen and two?They were a wildcard team that snuck in
and had they not lost a gamesince Week eight, they would have missed
the playoffs, so they would losthow many games wasn't No? No,
they were twelve and four. Excuseme because they were j Yeah, but

(01:40:31):
they lost four games, Okay,so they had to win. They had
to go undefeated for half the seasonto get into the playoffs. And with
the people I mentioned that, you'regiving credit for the playoffs and the championships.
Yeah, they were undefeated, sir, thank you. Gronk was there
the whole season. What are youtalking about? You're telling showed up in

(01:40:57):
week two. You're telling me allthese people that had to do it in
the season. That's great, butthey lost four games. The people I'm
talking about, what do you thatyou give credit to in the playoff talking
one person? Aby showed up,abowed, Baby showed on the bat,
Aby showed one nine gron Gronk wasthere from the beginning. Grount lost four

(01:41:17):
three, though that's my one personman grunt Glass four games. All of
Gronk was there from the beginning.Here, I'm gonna stop right here,
will stop. Pick pick a teamother than Kansas City and Tampa Bay and
name me four motherfuckers on either sideof the ball. That's gonna make a

(01:41:39):
difference. I'll wait, really,you do it? You can't you do
it? Can you do what you'reasking somebody to do? It's Kansas City
in Tampa Bay's turn. Sit down, Wait, you're goddamn turn. That's
my point. I said, it'sit's there, turn everything. You just
said your opinion, dude, it'snot my opinion. Where has the championship

(01:42:01):
gone through the past three years?Kansas City, Tampa Bay? That's it.
It's their turn. Kansas City's onein three in super Bowls, Okay,
but at least they got to theshow. If you us say two
of the last see super Bowls,they seem to go through Tom Brady if
you want to be accurate, who'sin Tampa fucking Bay? Yeah? And
my point, well, which kindof which makes richest point. He leaves

(01:42:23):
are done, Okay, then he'sdone, but he's still there. My
point is that's where it goes becauseit's their time right gone. That's great.
That's the same thing with Indiana anduh, calm down. When the
when the sheriff left Indiana and theBroncos, it was no longer their time.

(01:42:43):
They had their time with with thequarterback before him, they had the
quarterback with them. Now they don'thave their quarterback. Their time is done.
It was the Patriots time with TomBrady. Now it's the Tampa Bay's
time with Tom Brady. When he'sgone from there, their time is done.
Thank you for playing. But thoseare the two teams you got to
play against as today sits according toRob Leeds, which I don't know who

(01:43:09):
he writes for, but apparently JulioJones is in talks with Tampa Bay.
That's hilarious. Yeah, Tampa BayBuccaneer is already one of the best teams

(01:43:29):
in the NFL, has rating champsfor bringing back every key piece of their
roster. There isn't a concrete argumentagainst the or across the league to anyone
else is better. In Tampa hasan excellent opportunity to make back to back
superl appearances for the first time ever. The player buy in has been an
undeniable facet and the process facet facettand that in the progress learn to read
much that the team has made overthe past few weeks, and other teams

(01:43:53):
are not nearly as lucky with theirsuperstars. Let's see this question before.
Julio Jones been one of the biggestthorns inside of Tampa since he arrived in
the NFL wide receiver. According toJeff Schultz of The Atlantic, the Falcons
are looking to trade Jones. Imaginewant to trade one of the best offensive
players in the history of the franchise. Buccaneers instead done the right thing with

(01:44:15):
Mike Evans. While there's amount ofreasons why the Bucks are happy to have
Evans, the relationship with the franchiseis truly special. Mike's loyalty to Tampa
and has desired to Wait, howdoes go from about Julio Jones at a
blowing Mike fucking Evans Right, Okay, So I hope his sources are better
than his writing, because his writingis like old people fucking But I mean,

(01:44:45):
let's be honest as anybody shocked atany point any fucking weapon that's looking
to get out of his team orgoing to be a free agent. What
happens around this time of year.Their name always gets attached to the new
hotness team, and of course thelegacy teams, which we've already covered.
I do want to say this oneteam that was the hotness for a very

(01:45:06):
small period, Green Bay, haslost their hotness. Aaron Rodgers will not
be in green Bay this season.He's not going. So where does he
go because he carries some trophies withwithout this anywhere he wants, he's Aaron
Rodgers. You know. That's that'sso, that's the one. That's that's

(01:45:28):
the one I missed. I toldyou guys around this time last year,
or right before before the season started, I said, by the time the
preseason starts next year, Stafford willnot be on the Lions. I guarantee
it. I should have fun.I should have been like and Rodgers is
gonna be gone from the Packers becauselast season in the offseason, weren't we

(01:45:50):
hearing rumblin's about fucking the coach andthe head in the front office and Rodgers.
This isn't nothing new, And Imean, I know this isn't sports
related per se, but you know, apparently Rogers has a lot of family
conflict. I guess we'll put itlike not talking to family members for years

(01:46:14):
at a stretch, and apparently accordingto people around him that are all anonymous
sources, So take that with whatyou will. He's very impressionable depending on
who he's sticking his dick in.And when he was with Olivia Munn,
she was in his ear. You'reyou're the greatest, You're the best.

(01:46:35):
Why aren't you getting all this love? Like like Tom Brady, he got
Russell Wilson out there, what's thatsawt off? Motherfucker done that? You
ain't done all this shit? Thenhe got with danny Ka Patrick, things
kind of fucking went back to normal. Then he got with his new chick
he's with, and now he's backto not talking to his family and the

(01:46:55):
shit I'm here and coming out ofgreen Bay. As far as the rumor
mill is, she's in his ear. Get the fuck out of green Bay.
Green Bay's a dead end. Yousaw how they did far, They're
going to do you the same way. Don't let them dictate where you end
your career. You decide. She'snot wrong and she's not put At the
same time, bro, you're oneof the best fucking quarterbacks to ever strap

(01:47:16):
on the fucking pair of cleats anddo this, and you need some twenty
four year old whatever, how fuckingold she is, actress who don't know
shit about shit when it comes tosports, telling you how to fucking giving
you career advice. I mean,it'd be the same if he was in
the fucking you know, in thepapers giving her career advice through the media,

(01:47:36):
I'd be like, you need toshut the fuck up, Rogers.
When we need someone to throw afootball, we'll call you. Until then,
shut the fuck up. You're right. If we were in nineteen ninety
two, that would be great,but we're heading into twenty twenty two and
this is the era of the millennialsand everybody else. Everybody's special, everybody's

(01:47:58):
got their own thing. They deservethat, they deserved that this should be
handing. Oh fuck you. He'sthe reigning MVP. He damn sure he
can call his shot if he wantsto this season like he used to be.
What do you mean used to be? He is the current MVP,
he won it last season. Heused to be used to again, he's
the twenty twenty MVP. What doyou mean used to be? Bro?

(01:48:21):
Because Earl's feelings don't care about yourfacts. The fact that he won MVP
of the season. Who fucking whodude? Did he? How's how's the
end of the season. I'm justsaying he can call his shot right now.
He can call his shot. Idon't call it, so let him
call it. Saint Millennial. Hewent to the Glory Days. He was
voted the best in his field byhis peers for his last season. From

(01:48:45):
now on, I'm gonna refer toAaron fucking Rogers as Joe Montana. Dude,
congratulateucking lations. What he's got usedto be something he still used to
be something you used to be something? Oh, good job? How did
he again? Current MVP? Howhas he used to anything? How did
you get super Bowl champions to theplayoffs the next time with another team?

(01:49:09):
And then just be left out ofso many different conversations because he's done it
five times? You used to cutTom Brady has a seven and three fucking
super Bowl record. Everyone talks aboutall the ones he's won, but he's
lost a few two and there's alsobeen years he hasn't made the playoffs.
He has lost three. Remember tenyears ago, the year he was injured.

(01:49:30):
That was it. Everyone's saying,that's it for Brady. You're a
Q. Can't even make a casefor Aaron Rodgers compared to Tom Brady when
Tom Brady has a seven and threeSuper Bowl. My case is he's the
current, the current, not tenyears ago. He is the current MVP
of Aaron Rodgers. And tell mehis his playoff record, all right,

(01:49:55):
not a super Bowl, his fuckingplayoff record, and then we'll talk about
Tom Brady with Aaron Rodgers. Untilthen, I don't want to hear about
it. From now on, AaronRodgers is joan fucking Tanna you used to
cut if you try a little bitharder than again, he's the current MV.
He isn't used to anything. He'sin of the fucking season. Nobody

(01:50:17):
cares. Nobody cares. You don'tcare, No, nobody cares. The
last game of the season is allthat fucking matters, dude. But if
he signed in Detroit, you'd fuckingcare. No. No, okay,
I've said no, you're just lyingto us. No, I've said it
again today. It'll never be Detroit'sturn at the top of the mountain.

(01:50:41):
And once they had it, theyhad it. Once and they passed.
I don't know why, but theydid. So he signed with Detroit.
Are you want I'm going cold,hard fucking facts on you. You like
your facts, I'm giving it toyou. Lebron done a season, he
won the fucking uh championship? Whatare you talking about? These are your
opinions? If you're with your facts, I'm gonna throw I'm at you.
How many fucking finals has Ryan lost? Eight? How many is he won?

(01:51:06):
Three? Shush? Yeah? Andhe's still winning them. He's,
by the way, another guy.He's he's on the current. He's he's
the current NBA champion. Aaron Rodgersis good. He used to cut.
He used to be a Super Bowlwhere forbidding? Used to He's the current

(01:51:26):
MVP. Where is your used tocoming from? You're the one making the
accusation. You have to bring thewhere is? Here's the proofs? In
the fucking pudding? Dude? Wheredid his MVPs season end? Where did
it end? Dude? Did itend? End the Super Bowl? With
ticker take with Noah didn't? Yeah, he had an MVP season when his
with a broken busted ass, receivingCORPS year in his running backs. Fucking

(01:51:50):
uh again, you're locked into youropinion. It's like talking to a wall.
Tom Brady with sixteen and no whena season he went undefeated in the
playoffs, Scott to the super Bowland fucked up. Nobody cared that he
went undefeated the entire fucking season.Nobody. What they cared about is the

(01:52:10):
fact that he lost the Super Bowl, and that's one of the three that
he lost. However, the muffuckerhas won seven. So when they talk
about Tom Brady, they don't talkabout the people he played with, they
talk about his coach, they talkabout him. They talk about a trophy.
That's it. That is it.I don't care how many different awards

(01:52:30):
tom Brady has. Was the MVP, did he get MVP? Did he
come back? Did he do that? Nobody gives a flying fuck. They
cared that he has seven and threeand a super Bowl. So when you
look at Aaron Rodgers, you tellme he's a comeback player, he's the
MVP of the season. He's agreat quarterback, he's got a great arm.
Okay, he's a bad man.All of that's great doesn't equal hardware.

(01:52:55):
At the end of the season.For my team, they go to
the playoffs, every year. Notanymore. He's done it a couple of
times. He's had his time toshine. Get the fuck on. They
do it with everybody. They didit with five, They've done it with
Elway, They've done it with Manning, They've done it with Joe Montana.
Any great, great quarterback, youcan say, fucking are you kidding me?

(01:53:18):
How you doing? Dolphins looking atyou? Back in the eighties,
Damn Marino, the greatest quarterback I'veever seen, never had a fucking trophy.
Nobody talks about him. At theend of the day, I don't
care what you do in the sixteengames. Get me to the playoffs.
Go nine and seven, get meto the playoffs, get me through it,

(01:53:40):
get me to that last game,and get me a trophy. Otherwise,
nobody gives a shit about you andyour nice little trophy case, unless
it has a fucking vent Sombardi Trophy. But if I'm him, I can
see why he's frustrated. Tell meany splashy decent position players signing Green Bay
has made in the last five years. I'll be you now, I'll wait.

(01:54:02):
He has had a bullshit core receivers. He has had the only constant
offensive weapon he's really had is AaronJones. Everyone else has just been it
has been. It's been a carouselof marginally talented receivers for like the last
five years, and he's still gettingto the playoffs. Your product of your
own trap here, because I'm gonnaname drop Tom fucking Brady, who's made

(01:54:27):
white men so fucking famous that theyget millions and millions of dollars in the
middle of a fucking country and donothing else when they leave them. Yeah,
well, my looking at you,my refute to that thing is great.
But Tampa Bay, he went toa loaded team and won the Super
Bowl and he did what he shouldhave done. Yeah, but what about
the decade he spent in a fuckingteam where it was a carousel bigger than

(01:54:53):
Green Bay could even thought of.Well, I mean a percent, nobody's
until they met Tom Brady. I'msure the Hall of Fame helped. So
it's just coaching player. The factthat the player went to a different team
and took them to the last gameand won it means nothing. He went
to a loaded team. If TomBrady went to it, I'm gonna pull
with Kevin Hard here. If ifTom Brady went to the Lions and did

(01:55:16):
it. I'm not saying I'm notI'm I'm not saying it wasn't impressed.
If he went to the Lions anddid it, I'd be impressed. But
he went to He went to aloaded team. Dude, he went to
a loaded team. Tampa is loaded. Tampa was loaded before him. They
had a ship quarterback. Okay,hold on the mouths of the horse.
Two years ago, Tampa did whatRich go. He might not be on

(01:55:39):
yet. He had to reboot it. Did reboot Tampa. Bay was shiit
nothing. They were seven to ninethe year before Brady with the same team,
Okay, and now with Brady they'retwelve and four in a Super Bowl
champ stop it, stop it.Yeah, because he went to a loaded
team, how do you call thata little He had the exact same weapons

(01:56:00):
as Jameis Winston hand Okay, bottomline. Aaron Rodgers used to could,
all right, I'm happy for himin his season and being a fucking what
you call he MVP of the season? Good boy? Where's the hardware at
the end of the season, that'sthe question. Look like I said,
Joe did it, Joe Montana didit, Peyton Manning did it. Name

(01:56:26):
your price, Go get paid.You have your hardware, You are a
super Bowl champion. Go get paid. But don't try to play it off
like you're the guy that had thesuper Bowl championship, because you're not that
guy anymore. You're just not thebest quarterback in the league. He's the
best player in the league last year. No, he wasn't how Brady was.
He was the MVP. And whatdid that get him, dude,
contract negotiations. It's going to gethim a hell of a lot of money,

(01:56:49):
is what it's gonna get him.Exactly my point. Exactly my point.
He'll get paid. Go get paid. And that's all the way back
to what we were talking about withJulio Jones. If Julio Jones wants to
get paid, Julio Jones is wortha lot of fucking money. Go to
the Patriots, go to the Lions. Go to somebody who will pay you
to draw ass in the seat.I'll call a shot right here, right

(01:57:09):
now. If if Tom or ifAaron Rodgers goes to the Saints, he'll
win the Super Bowl. He'll haveMichael Thomas and Alvin Kamara. He'll be
He'll be fucking unstoppable. You're fuckingon. I will bet you one hundred
dollars right now if he goes tothe Saints. If he goes to the
Saints with Alvin Kamara, Michael Thomas, you were on, that is a
bet. No, we'll freaking waythat will take that bet you're on,

(01:57:31):
that's one hundred bucks. Better preyto everything holy. He does not go
to the Saints. He does goto the Saints, I'll be super I'll
be fairly confident. You're gonna putSean Payton with Aaron Rodgers. Get the
fuck out of here. No,dude, we'll see in the Super Bowl
than that. To know, ittakes a lot more than that. And
and the Saints don't have it.A team that had their time and they

(01:57:55):
made the most of it. Theymanaged to be competitive last year without their
starting QB the whole season. You'retelling me adding Aaron Rodgerson that mix wouldn't
fucking put him over the hump.Get them, get them back to being
the perennial playoff favorite. Watching yourteam during the season doesn't mean shit.
I've explained this to you thousands oftimes. I've shown it to you.
It does matter to get to theplayoffs. Yes you can. You can.

(01:58:18):
You can poop poo the regular seasonall you want, but you don't
do well in the regular season,you're not seeing the playoffs. You gotta
do those games matter. That's allyou gotta do is do decent. That's
it. You don't have to explodeand go perfect. Tom Brady has proven
that many different ways. Fucking theChiefs have proved it. Last year.

(01:58:39):
They exploded during the season. Lastyear they were a freight fucking train all
the way up to the Super Bowl, and the Tampa Bay was like,
really, nah, sorry, wewent over the size chief The Chiefs had
a cake schedule last year. Youkeep forgetting that. I went over it
several times. Hey, but theydidn't even score a fucking touchdown Chris in

(01:59:00):
the Super Bowl. They didn't evenscore a touchdown, not one. Last
year. The Chiefs were not greatagainst teams of winning records. We reviewed
that many times. That was thatwas the one thing nobody kept talking about
was the Chiefs had a very easyschedule last year. When when when the
season ended, they had a cakeschedule, and yeah, and it showed

(01:59:20):
and they got the Super Bowl.They have their ass handed to him.
Aaron Rodgers is one of the greatestquarterbacks in NFL history. It's undisputed.
He'll get paid no matter where hegoes. But he's done winning championships.
He's done that sun has It's over. Well he is. Like I'm telling
you, he is a Joe Montana, a Brett Farve, uh, anybody

(01:59:43):
else you want to throw in thata mix. He's that person. It's
just playing because he's great. Ifi'm him, I'm I'm comfortable with your
statement because you just mentioned two Hallof Famers. I'd be okay with being
compared to both of those guys.Yeah, but not in light I'm cast
in them in now. I'm notcasting him as Hall of Famers. I'm
casting him as has beens used tocould. They're just getting paid. That's

(02:00:09):
all they're doing, and that's allAaron Rodgers is going to do. It's
just go get paid and have atit. But don't come at me thinking
that you're gonna score a championship withAaron Rodgers, because you're not. He's
done. Wow. Well, we'llagree to disagree on that one. We'll
let the season play that out.I will double down. Aaron Rodgers won't

(02:00:30):
win another Vince Lombardi Trophy. Ever, I don't give a flying fuck where
he goes. Deal hundred bucks onsomething that could take years to play out.
No, anywhere anywhere, he willnot win another trophy. I don't
care. If he goes to KansasCity, he won't win another one.
Now, deal, No, you'rejust duging no, because that could be
like a five year bet. I'lltake the bet on this season, okay,

(02:00:51):
but I'm willing to bet the restof his career he never wins to
Vince Lombardi ever. Anywhere good sportsgambling's legal everywhere. To put that go,
put that bet down yourself. Ifthat BET's available, I am going
to make that bet. I wantodds, and because people believe of Aaron

(02:01:12):
Rodgers like you, there will beodds. Given one hundred dollars will be
thousands. Ritchie with us. Richhas not signed back on It's just me
and you. Oh well, isthere anything else we wanted to hit on?
Dude? I honestly, this wasa great conversation. I love these
conversations. Um No, I thinkI think we're good that you know playoffs

(02:01:32):
are going as they're going coming intothis one. Hey, there is He's
back. Yeah, sorry, Ihad to reboot. I don't an issue.
Well, we were just is thereanything else we wanted to hit on?
Oh your best A whole lot oftalking, dude. We got no,
no, no, no, no. I actually I was on mute

(02:01:54):
and heard most of it. Well, we have bet that Aaron Rodgers is
not going to win and if hegoes to the Saints next year, I
doubled down and he wouldn't take thebet. But I'm gonna go play because
you want to make like a fuckinga bet that could take five years to
play out. No, I'll makeit. Then he'll take ten to play.
I don't care. Aaron Rodgers willnot win a Vince Lombardi Trophy ever,

(02:02:14):
no matter where he goes, he'sdone. He's a pay to see
quarterback. Now. He's a JoeMontana in Kansas City. He's a Brett
Farven Jets. That's all he is. He will not win a Vince Lombardi
Trophy for the rest of his career. Done. Okay, Well hold on
because I don't care about the restof his career. I care about the
bet because there's something I can makefun of whoever loses him, all Right,

(02:02:35):
so the bet is one hundred dollars. He will not win next season,
not win what have a winning seasonto go to the playoffs? The
bettle it's if he goes to theSaints. I say he wins the super
Bowl, that is my bet.He has to go. If he doesn't
go to the Saints, the betisn't on right. And if he goes
to the Saints and loses, heloses. There's no freaking way that time

(02:03:00):
has set in Aaron Rodgers's career.Well, fucker, I'm just saying,
if you're betting one hundred dollars,you've been put to one hundred dollars aside
in the savings account because you mightnot have it come fucking February. I'm
just saying you better be careful withthat ship. We'll see. Hey,
I'm just saying, man, I'meven the same and he wins the Super
Bowl, you're gonna be crying theblues bro. Like I said, I'm

(02:03:23):
even doubling down. I am goingto go place a bet on the sports
book for Aaron Rodgers' career. He'sdone. We'll not win a vincem party.
I don't care where it goes orwho he's with. Okay, when
you do this, you have tomemorize the odds they gave you and come
back and tell us, oh,absolutely, well, because my hundred I
told That's what I told the Chris. I said, I'm gonna get em.

(02:03:44):
With Aaron Rodgers, I don't know. I've never even been in I've
been in a casino. I've nevereven sat at a blackjack table. So
I don't know how in sports betting. And that was no go when I
was twenty five years ago when Iwas in the casino. So I have
no idea how it works. I'mjust saying I just want to know what
kind of odds they give you.They give a whole bunch of different odds

(02:04:05):
based on everything. It's always basedto lean towards the house. But sometimes
you win, sometimes you don't.Here's the thing, though, and I
want to say this one more time. Aaron Rodgers is a Hall of Fame,
amazing quarterback. Nobody could take itfrom him, has Lombardi trophies,
but he's a used to could hecan't do it today. He cannot win

(02:04:30):
a trophy today. He is aplay to see quarterback. You pay to
go see him play and that's it, And you're looking at what he used
to be. That's it? Allright? Well bro, you not only
fucking set it, you put yourmoney where your mouth is at. So
all right, cool, ain't Iain't touching this bet because one even if

(02:04:53):
I win, I lose because ifyou fucking if he does go to fucking
he does go to New Orleans.Yes, it's like, man, come
on, man, I just thinkif you give him Michael Thomas and Alvin
Kamar, I'll fucking we'll see inthe super Bowl like that just would be
ridiculous and in two Sean Payton ashis coach, get the fuck out of

(02:05:15):
here. That's the one thing Iwill say. He seems like he needs
a players coach, a certain typeof coach. I don't know how you
say it necessarily, but he seemslike he can real quick fast in a
hurry. A coach can get onhis bad side or vice versa. And
if that's the case, good luck. I'm just saying, in my experience,

(02:05:40):
that makes it a little bit hard. So all right, anything else,
that's all I got. You guysgot anything else. The one last
thing I have is for all theship we talked about, Eiserman. I
do have to point this out.He traded Anthony Mantha to Washington for a
first round pick, and so Washingtongetting bounced out in the first round of
the playoffs actually bodes well for thefucking Red Wings. Oh and Mantha he

(02:06:02):
didn't score in the last fifteen gameshe played for Washington, So I mean,
you know, it's a it's alittle early to be fucking doing a
victory lap on this trade. Butso far this looks like a pretty good
Eiserman move. So once again,I don't know how to fucking feel.
He does one one thing, I'mlike hey, and he does another and

(02:06:25):
I'm like, hey, that's Imean, let's see, let's see,
