Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL. Podcast challenges you to play Mark
Speaker 1: in tennis Chris Wrestling guest studio. It's around the NFL.
Speaker 1: I'm Dan Hansis got some heroes of the studio, Greg Rosen, Dolf,
Speaker 1: Mark Sessler. Mark, how is your tennis career going? You
Speaker 1: haven't heard much. You were dominant against children and your
Speaker 1: wife and where are we at now? That was a
Speaker 1: spot start. There's been very little action since. We have
Speaker 1: a a sort of a ramshackle tennis court up the
Speaker 1: street from where we live. Um, but it's under construction
Speaker 1: right now. The entire park that it's attached to under construction.
Speaker 1: So uh, the civic the civic angle of it has
Speaker 1: shut down my career. It's not my issue. I'm buried ascertain. Well.
Speaker 1: I've played multiple times this week with my son Walker,
Speaker 1: and I'm really training him with Mark and mine. I
Speaker 1: want to get him good enough to beat Mark. I
Speaker 1: feel he and now he's a regular listener of the podcast,
Speaker 1: which is a big change. He's a seven year old.
Speaker 1: He likes podcasts. He he just started listening about a
Speaker 1: week or two ago and he's very into it. And
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's going to change what I
Speaker 1: say on the podcast, but but just saying how to
Speaker 1: Sometimes we have adult topics. But one one topic he'll
Speaker 1: definitely appreciate is him destroying Mark and tennis and about angelist.
Speaker 1: Come find me on any court in Santa Monica, any
Speaker 1: court in Venice, any court in California. I love this.
Speaker 1: And now the provocateur and me is trying to think
Speaker 1: about how can we set up some type of live
Speaker 1: events against Gregg's by then eight year old son. That
Speaker 1: would be very excited. No peace here. This would be
Speaker 1: the war on the court. What do they call it?
Speaker 1: The that it's like a term like courts of I
Speaker 1: don't know. I think what it ultimately will be is
Speaker 1: like hillen Clay. It's like it's like a movie King Richard,
Speaker 1: except the end is just my son can beat Mark, not,
Speaker 1: you know, become transformative Grand Slam champions, the greatest that
Speaker 1: one apparently. Okay, Greg's always seen him as a Will
Speaker 1: Smith type. Um, all right, hey how about the Oscars? Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, so today is hump Day. Oh here we go.
Speaker 1: This is good or bad depends on your perspective on life.
Speaker 1: I think it's good. I think it's also good that
Speaker 1: Connor or is joining us today. Always good. I think
Speaker 1: it's good. This is our third show this week. It's
Speaker 1: our training camp. We're getting getting our reps in absolutely
Speaker 1: and Connor is going to join us for one of
Speaker 1: my favorite recurring Uh well, this is only the second one,
Speaker 1: but as of this afternoon, it will be a recurring
Speaker 1: segment in every summer team slogans around the NFL. And um,
Speaker 1: it's now tied flash Points in terms of its episodic quantity.
Speaker 1: How about let's circle back to that when Greg trying
Speaker 1: to sideswipe, I totally do. I think about it all
Speaker 1: the time, And I was thinking about the other thing
Speaker 1: with Greggy. He's brought up a couple of times, like
Speaker 1: the connection you and I have. Yeah, I think that's
Speaker 1: a subtle way to try to drive a wedge as
Speaker 1: well by kind of calling attention to it in some
Speaker 1: type of weird why are you always causing trouble? We're
Speaker 1: reading into it. I think it's mostly that your chairs
Speaker 1: face each other and mine kind of face the hallway. Um,
Speaker 1: but you're just often staring into each other's eyes. And
Speaker 1: I picked up on after a month and a half,
Speaker 1: everyone's happy to be together. I think we all are
Speaker 1: as a threesome, but your eyes when they meet this
Speaker 1: is a little more crackling. And the way that we
Speaker 1: used to sit when it was me here on the edge,
Speaker 1: Wes you and then Greg. That would often happen with Greg,
Speaker 1: and I do think there's something to what he's saying strategic.
Speaker 1: M Mark used to kind of stare at each other
Speaker 1: during the show too, so I do like staring at
Speaker 1: and yet again, yet again. Without getting into specifics. Before
Speaker 1: the show, Greg was explaining a conflict he found himself
Speaker 1: in with a shadow, and it's just like, maybe we
Speaker 1: need somebody for Greg to lock eyes with. I guess
Speaker 1: that is what I'm saying, so he could get away
Speaker 1: from these things that cause the drive divisions. I think
Speaker 1: it's healthy. Well, we'll just playing someone out, you Greg,
Speaker 1: plant someone out in the hallway outside of the Chris
Speaker 1: Westling podcast, just like staring stand there in a very
Speaker 1: creepy manner, all right, before we get to Mr Or
Speaker 1: let us get to the latest news, looking looking drawing
Speaker 1: in the engine. It's a matter how shut handle stick
Speaker 1: with fefty one second flat. Yes Joe Montana to Dwight
Speaker 1: Clark in NFC Title Game and yes on the call
Speaker 1: the great and now sadly late Vince Skull, you passed
Speaker 1: away on Tuesday at the age of ninety four. Talk
Speaker 1: to anybody that's worked in a booth, anybody that's grew
Speaker 1: up listening uh to this man call not just football games,
Speaker 1: especially baseball games, and really, um, all different kinds of
Speaker 1: sports throughout an incredible six decade plus career. He's the
Speaker 1: best to ever do it. So losing Vince Scully especially
Speaker 1: for people, and all three of us are transplants, um,
Speaker 1: but especially if you live in southern California, because Vince
Speaker 1: Scully was born in the Bronx same borrow in New
Speaker 1: York City, where my dad's from. But he quickly caught
Speaker 1: on with the Brooklyn Dodgers, made the move across country
Speaker 1: to l a and called every Dodger game. And this
Speaker 1: is impossible to wrap your head around, especially because football,
Speaker 1: by its nature is a different sport. Uh. For all
Speaker 1: this talk about you know, who's the three man booth here,
Speaker 1: Who's who's gonna mesh with this guy in this booth?
Speaker 1: How many millions of dollars Vince Scully for half a
Speaker 1: century sat in a booth at Dodger Stadium, solo and
Speaker 1: UM played music with stories and his voice and his
Speaker 1: folksy wisdom as you always here connected to him and
Speaker 1: to all the Dodgers fans and every baseball fans and
Speaker 1: sports fans. Yes, this was a tough loss. I listened
Speaker 1: to an incredible interview he had with Dan Patrick. It's
Speaker 1: it's from a long time ago, but they were playing
Speaker 1: it this morning, and UM, he talked about the fact
Speaker 1: that you know, would he fit in today if he
Speaker 1: came out of the blue today, I mean technically and
Speaker 1: from his voice angle and his ability to do it, Yes,
Speaker 1: But he was also just from a very special time.
Speaker 1: I mean the amount of like historical Dodger's knowledge. He
Speaker 1: he sat and announced Jackie Robinson way back in the day.
Speaker 1: And I think you're so right about the idea that
Speaker 1: even doing radio with two or three other people, UM,
Speaker 1: would be tough. But to narrate baseball games, and we're
Speaker 1: talking like a hundred and sixty of them plus a year,
Speaker 1: day after day with the storytelling ability, like there's no
Speaker 1: one else like him. And I'm just comfortable saying there
Speaker 1: will never be another Vince Scully. And we're lucky enough
Speaker 1: to I've been here for eighteen years. I have a
Speaker 1: lot of memories of just watching him do his do
Speaker 1: his work right when I when I up here the
Speaker 1: first time around, right out of college, I got super
Speaker 1: into the Dodgers because I was really into baseball at
Speaker 1: the time, and I just started watching every every game.
Speaker 1: And Vince Scully was the reason why. I mean, the
Speaker 1: mayor of the city said that, you know, his passing
Speaker 1: is the end of a chapter of the city's history,
Speaker 1: and I just I know there's important um broadcasters and
Speaker 1: what they mean to their local cities, but Scully and
Speaker 1: in l a Is is sort of unmatched. Our next
Speaker 1: next level. Rest in peace, Vince Scully, a life well lived.
Speaker 1: Let's get to the news. We mean as as much
Speaker 1: to Los Angeles, the three of us. Why would I
Speaker 1: ask that mean little early? It feels a little early.
Speaker 1: It was a good We did a nice button up.
Speaker 1: You're bringing in the irreverence, which is fine. That's what
Speaker 1: we do. The answers, No, but maybe in parts of Scotland.
Speaker 1: I don't know, little focus start somewhere, all right, Let's
Speaker 1: get to it, Tim Patrick, we talked about it on
Speaker 1: yesterday's show. The promising wide received ever of the Broncos
Speaker 1: was carted off the field after twisting his leg coming
Speaker 1: down from a crazy leaping catch that according to a
Speaker 1: dispatch from the practice from Robert Mazie of The Athletic
Speaker 1: And now we get the news that many were hoping
Speaker 1: would not we would not get, but it is what
Speaker 1: it is because he suffered a torn a c l
Speaker 1: in Tuesday's practice and you know that means his season
Speaker 1: is over. Greg. We touched on it yesterday, so I
Speaker 1: don't know how hard we have to go in, but
Speaker 1: he fit what Russell Wilson does well. And now the
Speaker 1: Broncos have to find another path, right. They really need
Speaker 1: Courtland Sutton to be Courtland Sutton this year, and I
Speaker 1: think it was kind of under the radar that he
Speaker 1: wasn't the guy he normally is. There was a thought
Speaker 1: maybe Patrick was the best receiver on this team, certainly
Speaker 1: last year, but but maybe even going into this year.
Speaker 1: So you need Sutton to show up. You need Jerry
Speaker 1: Judy to take that leap, and you would love to
Speaker 1: see kJ Hamler, who this week made some news being
Speaker 1: very open about um his mental health and how hard
Speaker 1: it's been for him coming back from a corn kny
Speaker 1: that that he was thinking of ending his life and
Speaker 1: he was happy to be back on the field and
Speaker 1: and now he he has a big role on this team.
Speaker 1: So just not quite as much depth, but just from
Speaker 1: a team perspective, don't think it's devastating. From Patrick's perspective,
Speaker 1: it's terrible, but it's a good thing. He did sign
Speaker 1: a long term contract last November with the Broncos, so
Speaker 1: he will be with them for a while. I think
Speaker 1: so much what they're gonna do is around Melvin Gordon
Speaker 1: in Chavante Williams too. I think they're very balanced, and
Speaker 1: it's I I'm leary when I here, and it's not
Speaker 1: you know, a constant drumbeat, but Broncos a f C
Speaker 1: title game, Broncos automatic twelve thirteen wins, I mean, a
Speaker 1: couple more injuries in their offense doesn't look so flashy,
Speaker 1: and on top of it, it's been a more of
Speaker 1: a name offense where you want. You like the potential
Speaker 1: of Jerry Judy of Courtland Sutton, of albert O of
Speaker 1: kJ Hamler, but they have yet to put together, don't
Speaker 1: have a quarterback before though. I change things, yes, and
Speaker 1: the Broncos, you can absolutely make a case of the
Speaker 1: Broncos being a big time team this season, but it's
Speaker 1: the a f C West and a few things go wrong,
Speaker 1: like you're saying, with any of these four teams and
Speaker 1: they very quickly because of this schedule and what awar
Speaker 1: it's going to be, uh inside that division, your season
Speaker 1: can fall off a cliff quickly. So it's a big loss.
Speaker 1: YEA Denver can survive this. And I must say, hey,
Speaker 1: less monitoring of Will Fuller, George Payton, more picking up
Speaker 1: the phone, calling me up and see if we can
Speaker 1: work out a deal, because that might be someone a guy,
Speaker 1: a burner, a guy that's a chunkyard guy, guy that's hungry,
Speaker 1: the guy that wants it client at the most appropriate time,
Speaker 1: which you've got the instincts for the true outside receiver.
Speaker 1: I think in a perfect world, Jerry Judy is moving
Speaker 1: inside and out a lot of the inbreaking routes um
Speaker 1: where Patrick was really just a pure outside guy, not
Speaker 1: the He's not the burner that that Fuller is. Certainly
Speaker 1: we don't think Will to be running a full compliment route. True,
Speaker 1: we don't need Matt Harmon doing the breakdown of reception
Speaker 1: perception on Will Fuller. I just need him to go
Speaker 1: deep and Russell Wilson, as we know from one of
Speaker 1: our producers, I'm not on Mount Rushmore, are very large
Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore producers. T D once said, Russell Wilson throws
Speaker 1: a sexy deepall go get it was right about that.
Speaker 1: In other news, the Cardinals are spending more money. Mark
Speaker 1: wanted to say something because of his relationship with TV,
Speaker 1: which is very hot and cold. I'm going to give
Speaker 1: you the floor. I did know. I wish t D well,
Speaker 1: it's been a while since we've spoken, but you know,
Speaker 1: I think that it was hot and cold. I kind
Speaker 1: of forgot about that. It was very digger. His relationships
Speaker 1: with the producer, Justin's probably already picking up on that.
Speaker 1: He would needle me in certain ways and I would respond,
Speaker 1: I mean, Justin is that excellent communicator and a hard worker,
Speaker 1: and so things are good. He wasn't afraid to kind
Speaker 1: of jumped in the frame and mix it up. What's
Speaker 1: up to these days he's doing. I know he's working
Speaker 1: with Lebron for a while. I don't know if that's
Speaker 1: still to the new gig, but he he is an
Speaker 1: executives for him. Another success story the Cardinals doing more
Speaker 1: business left tackle d J. Humphries assigned a three year
Speaker 1: sixties six point eight million dollar extension through. So the
Speaker 1: Cardinals mark get a deal done with Kyler, now they
Speaker 1: get another deal done with d J Humphries, the left tackle.
Speaker 1: This kind of came out of nowhere. I didn't there's
Speaker 1: there's not been any a hold in or like a
Speaker 1: lot of hoop law about DJ Humphries. They did say
Speaker 1: last week they wanted to get something done with him.
Speaker 1: I think for them it's a it's a nice story
Speaker 1: because he I viewed him early on as a kind
Speaker 1: of a draft bust, and then he went on to
Speaker 1: become more consistent. He's played sixteen seventeen starts three years
Speaker 1: in a row. I was the fourth best tackle from
Speaker 1: PF and and the rest of their line like is
Speaker 1: going to be in transition because Justin Peugh, Rodney Hudson,
Speaker 1: who wanted to retire, Will Hernandez, Kevin Calvin Beacham are
Speaker 1: all in their early thirties or one of them is
Speaker 1: twenty seven. I mean they're gonna have to make adjustments there.
Speaker 1: I this is the one guy that can count on.
Speaker 1: I guess if you've just gone and done this with
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. You don't want to suddenly be looking for
Speaker 1: a left tackle. I'm not saying he's stellar, but he's
Speaker 1: who they have right now. It's good to be at
Speaker 1: tackle six, five, three or seven. You know, it's hard
Speaker 1: to like just become one of them, but if you can,
Speaker 1: you could be a guy as under the radar as
Speaker 1: DJ Humphries and you can get a sixty six point
Speaker 1: eight million dollars extension right like when he signed the
Speaker 1: last one, which I'm looking now, it was literally the
Speaker 1: last Rotor World post of him, was his last contract,
Speaker 1: which was a three year, forty five million dollar country
Speaker 1: I remember at the time it was like, Wow, D D.
Speaker 1: Humphrey Humphries is getting a forty five million dollar contract,
Speaker 1: and look at this, he's getting to the end of
Speaker 1: it and they're giving giving him another. I am publishing
Speaker 1: this very Wednesday, the top twenty five free agents of
Speaker 1: Little Look Ahead of not a great crop in general,
Speaker 1: but he would have probably made the top twenty five
Speaker 1: before this this news. There there are a couple of
Speaker 1: tackles out there, but not much interesting. You know, you'll
Speaker 1: send in the morning the rundown of the news suggesting
Speaker 1: what we should hit and we usually hit all of it.
Speaker 1: And you have a parenthetical open slammer question mark close parenthetical.
Speaker 1: Do you not like the contract? Well, it just seemed like, wow,
Speaker 1: sixty six point eight million for d J. Humphreys, not
Speaker 1: a guy people think of as a top ten tackle,
Speaker 1: but that's just hey, that's that. The money itself made
Speaker 1: it feel like, well, we should talk about any contract
Speaker 1: that big. Doesn't It feel like this is a team
Speaker 1: that needs to get off to a quick start to
Speaker 1: kind of bury some of the drama they opened with
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the Raiders and the Rams. I don't love
Speaker 1: that good luck. I think, you know, I think the
Speaker 1: getting the collar deal done I think kind of chilled
Speaker 1: the drama out a little bit. I think by the
Speaker 1: time twelve hours later, seems like whatever, unless they go
Speaker 1: then it's gonna be going anyway. In other news, Tyrne Matthew,
Speaker 1: the Honey Badger. He is now with the Saints, practicing
Speaker 1: with the Saints. He had missed a week of camp
Speaker 1: uh to attend to a family matter. But now he
Speaker 1: joins a secondary in New Orleans that was already strong.
Speaker 1: And you know, Greg, we look at the Saints, so
Speaker 1: we've talked about their high ceiling and low floor, and
Speaker 1: you have a lot of questions about the offense, but
Speaker 1: the defense looks pretty damn good with honey Badger a
Speaker 1: cherry on top on paper. I believe that they believe
Speaker 1: they'll be the best defense in the league. That's sort
Speaker 1: of the expectations, and that that's hard to count on.
Speaker 1: And I think the safety position is interesting. Matthew. There
Speaker 1: were a lot of whispers of like what is going
Speaker 1: on here? So I thought it was just like worth
Speaker 1: putting it out there that that he's back, because him
Speaker 1: and Marcus May are maybe similar ish talents um in
Speaker 1: terms of what they do well. May is coming off
Speaker 1: of an injury, so I'm curious how they'll be used.
Speaker 1: I mean, the one thing is they Dennis Allen said
Speaker 1: we'll welcome back with open arms, and it was a
Speaker 1: personal matter, so I kind of it seems like the
Speaker 1: story is over. But I think the story and just
Speaker 1: he was he's a tried and tested veteran. They didn't
Speaker 1: need him there at the early part of camp. But
Speaker 1: you know, the one thing to your point, in like
Speaker 1: the reports of you, it's almost could have been a
Speaker 1: whisper yesterday that they they're saying that their second team
Speaker 1: secondary has been like destroying Andy Dalton in practice, that
Speaker 1: they are deep at the position, that there, that there
Speaker 1: is like I think it's the best secondary, and like
Speaker 1: the Ravens are up there potentially. But this they have
Speaker 1: a chance to, like in a pass happy league, have
Speaker 1: their defense control. Paul sent Adibo, their second year cornerback
Speaker 1: who had a nice rookie season as a starter, getting
Speaker 1: a lot a lot of pop. On paper, they might
Speaker 1: be the best defense in the league. Tom Down, I
Speaker 1: know you're excited. It's good. D I don't trust it though, defense.
Speaker 1: I never really trust defenses. Alright. Irv Smith Jr. The
Speaker 1: tight end of the Vikings, has thumb surgery. He's uncertain
Speaker 1: for week one, so keep an eye on that situation.
Speaker 1: He's a potentially big part of their offense under Kevin O'Connell,
Speaker 1: the new coach and play caller. And finally, Tom Brady
Speaker 1: is now forty five years old. And what the hell
Speaker 1: is this? This is the song turn this up in
Speaker 1: my headphones. Yeah, so I got a folder of old
Speaker 1: drops and this one was called Happy Birthday. Alright, crack
Speaker 1: it up, make up, I mean, crank get up. Was
Speaker 1: not the reaction I was looking for. I'm kind of
Speaker 1: into it, all right, so getting better? That was Tom Like,
Speaker 1: if Mark ends up in a cult in his sixties,
Speaker 1: I could I could imagine you guys all singing that
Speaker 1: together every morning. I have one called Happy Birthday. Now
Speaker 1: we're good. We're getting the birthday stop a good, good
Speaker 1: production work we have about the cult comment I made there,
Speaker 1: it's appropriate. I mean, I don't know what do we
Speaker 1: believe in birthdays? Or do you just essue all that
Speaker 1: business as you like? Every day in this cult is
Speaker 1: everyone's birthday because everyone is new every more every day
Speaker 1: we've come from your Tom Brady's forty five and uh,
Speaker 1: we don't have to dwell on this or whatever. Leonard Fournette,
Speaker 1: because you know, it's just passage of time. It's a
Speaker 1: thing we all know about it. Leonard Fournette sent a
Speaker 1: photo of a goat's head. He's the greatest of all time.
Speaker 1: And not only is he the greatest quarterback of all time,
Speaker 1: was a successful, decorated quarterback football player in the history
Speaker 1: of our league. He is still this needs to be
Speaker 1: remind everybody needs to be reminded. Maybe the best quarterback
Speaker 1: in the league right he was my choice for m
Speaker 1: v P. He is literally the first forty five year
Speaker 1: old starting quarterback in NFL history. Like that. I know
Speaker 1: he keeps saying that each and every year, that like
Speaker 1: he's the most productive forty two year old ever, he's
Speaker 1: the most productive forty three year old now, But now
Speaker 1: we've reached the point he's literally the first forty five
Speaker 1: year old starting quarterback in the history of professional football.
Speaker 1: And guess who's number two right now on that uh
Speaker 1: three free agents list. It's Tom Brady, Who's number one, Lamar,
Speaker 1: you know, just just because of the age. But like
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, unlike most of the top five to eight,
Speaker 1: I would say, has a realistic um chance I think
Speaker 1: of not playing for the Bucks and continuing to play
Speaker 1: football next year. Considering he was trying to do it
Speaker 1: this year. I we have to assume that there's a
Speaker 1: chance that he will take advantage of free agency and
Speaker 1: playoffs sort next. It's something that's on a board in Vegas.
Speaker 1: I would think the Dolphins right now would be like
Speaker 1: what three to one favorites? Really? You see now it's
Speaker 1: almost embarrassing to go play for the Dolphins. How did
Speaker 1: he not get punished for this? At all. That's a
Speaker 1: whole another thing. It's been involved in every every sort
Speaker 1: of problematic scenario with the league where they took away
Speaker 1: first round pick out. Everything connects back to the year
Speaker 1: old gun Slinger. I would say like retirement is more
Speaker 1: likely than returning to the Bucks, which is more likely
Speaker 1: than playing for another team. But I feel like there's
Speaker 1: like a decent chance he's playing for some random team
Speaker 1: next year. I can see that absolutely interesting. He called
Speaker 1: the shower. I don't even know who knows someone he
Speaker 1: I think he might enjoy being a free agents and
Speaker 1: it's yeah, I think so. And I also think it's
Speaker 1: a very veteran win now Bucks outfits, so things go
Speaker 1: sideways this season and they're not feeling are looking so hot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think he would want to again hand pick a
Speaker 1: spot that was He's also like the GM of the Bucks, though,
Speaker 1: so that's nice. I guess he indeed be that. Let's
Speaker 1: bring in Kyle Ruda. I don't want to and want
Speaker 1: to put this bad energy out there, but what if
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson, you're two, goes the same as Zack Wilson
Speaker 1: you're one, and they have a really good young roster.
Speaker 1: Otherwise the thing is that Tom Brady has said this
Speaker 1: verbally he hates the Jets. Please they all love money.
Speaker 1: I mean someone else, come come pay more. If Trey
Speaker 1: Lance bombs this year, there you go mm hmm. That's
Speaker 1: give him one year. You think they did? That was
Speaker 1: how they got Jimmy g They called up asking for
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and and Bill was like, no, but would
Speaker 1: you like they would probably be the Niners would Yeah,
Speaker 1: Titans put the Niners atop the board, the Dolphins, Titans
Speaker 1: with mike Y. Yeah, Titans were like reportedly in on
Speaker 1: the pursuit to Tennessee play in theory before. I want
Speaker 1: this all to keep bubbling up because otherwise this free
Speaker 1: agent list is kind of blocked. And for Spicy, we
Speaker 1: gotta get to love you, bro. You gotta get to
Speaker 1: Connor or So let's take a break and then hit
Speaker 1: team slogans. Welcome back joining us now? Is you know
Speaker 1: you want to talk about guest Mount Rushmore? Without a doubt,
Speaker 1: this man is on it, one of our favorites, former
Speaker 1: colleague and now a star over at Sports Illustrated The
Speaker 1: mm QB. You know who I'm talking about or you
Speaker 1: kidding me? Connors By what I know Connor I think
Speaker 1: was here while I was out over the summer first show,
Speaker 1: Is that right? That's right? We had we had some
Speaker 1: fun with Connor a few months back. I love that
Speaker 1: our our show is such a place in Connor's heart,
Speaker 1: and I'd be a little worried, frankly if I was
Speaker 1: his Sports Illustrated boss. That in the background is like
Speaker 1: a frame picture from one of our listeners, like showing
Speaker 1: what a key character he was when or you kidding me?
Speaker 1: Was really popping off in that in that vein. I
Speaker 1: got a bone to pick with you guys before we
Speaker 1: get started. Here we go, Um, so if you if
Speaker 1: you want like calling Wolf to come on the show,
Speaker 1: do you text Calling Wolf or do you have a producer?
Speaker 1: Text calling Wolf? We text Colling Wolf. Yeah, okay. If
Speaker 1: you want Kevin Patrick to come on, do you do
Speaker 1: you text Kevin Patrick? Or do you have a producer?
Speaker 1: We text Patrick? Yeah? All right? Yeah, So let's let's
Speaker 1: not let's not third party me neck time. So what
Speaker 1: you're saying is you don't like Graver. I'm just not
Speaker 1: one of your bookable guests. You know. I feel like
Speaker 1: I'm like a I'm a friend of the show, best
Speaker 1: friend of the show. In our defense, I did fly
Speaker 1: in a couple of days ago with Hey checking in
Speaker 1: on Connor. Hey, let's talk about the show that did
Speaker 1: come in from me personally. Does that mean that's fair?
Speaker 1: That's fair? You know, I just I just want to
Speaker 1: be treated the way that I deserved. VA tendencies to
Speaker 1: what you're saying, Connor. We if if the if the
Speaker 1: follow up text or contact with Connor also comes from Justin,
Speaker 1: you'll be talking about slogans with the boys. Will need
Speaker 1: ten to twenty of them, then I get it. But
Speaker 1: old Zeuser came in, Tugboat came into port and said, hey,
Speaker 1: let's chop it up. Let's maybe talk a little Orioles baseball.
Speaker 1: I didn't get any of that either, uh, and then
Speaker 1: he told me he was too busy to text. So
Speaker 1: to this this is there's two sides to this story.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately for you, um, well not unless I bring it up,
Speaker 1: I think. And for new listeners, the old Juicer and
Speaker 1: tug vote, they're they're not men of the sea that
Speaker 1: we just know. That's actually Dan conn Last summer, Um,
Speaker 1: we had a great time with you breaking down the
Speaker 1: teams of our league and team slogans that best fit
Speaker 1: where these organizations sit as they enter another year of football.
Speaker 1: We could not do this exercise without you, so we're
Speaker 1: very happy, uh to have you join us. So what
Speaker 1: we're gonna do here is spin through the league. Let's
Speaker 1: go alphabetical order and anybody has a slogan jump in. Okay,
Speaker 1: and Connor, of course you as well as our as
Speaker 1: an all time guest alphabetical city or we're gonna go
Speaker 1: alphabetical by city. I hope that doesn't mess with anyone. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's actually how I formatted mine, and I'm not me.
Speaker 1: I'm in the world of her, all right. Hanging there, Greg,
Speaker 1: let's get going, uh with the Arizona Cardinals. Connor, do
Speaker 1: you have anything for the cards? Yeah? I was thinking,
Speaker 1: you know, you have to You're gonna have to say
Speaker 1: it the right way, but something like get to class
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. I like that. I like that, playing off
Speaker 1: the Kyler Murray issue. I have something similar claws out,
Speaker 1: so you have the clause of the cardinal but also
Speaker 1: the closetself. That is good, But on the promotional materials,
Speaker 1: I don't know how. Maybe you have the X through
Speaker 1: uh the U S E. And then just make a claign.
Speaker 1: I think that's it. I think some Cardinals fan out
Speaker 1: there should actually make that. I can't match it, but
Speaker 1: mine is, uh, it is our call of duty to
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl Video Games. I'm realizing that I
Speaker 1: remembering last year that I maybe did not understand slogans
Speaker 1: as well as you guys. But here's mine, army disorganized
Speaker 1: in the desert. You would be too, if your bloodstream
Speaker 1: was utterly awashed with utopian forming peyote straight from the
Speaker 1: persist personal collection of Carlos Castanita. I think that Cardinals
Speaker 1: strike me as very same thing as last year, very disorganized.
Speaker 1: I just feel like trying to make a point after it.
Speaker 1: Let it say it's a slogan, disorganized in the desert
Speaker 1: question mark. The slogans should more or less stand on
Speaker 1: its own. Once you say it, everybody goes disorganize in
Speaker 1: the desert, large fund, and then there'd be some fun time.
Speaker 1: I've got some longer ones just as a changeup. But
Speaker 1: I don't know if I don't know if you want
Speaker 1: that as your all right? How about the Atlanta Falcons? Anybody?
Speaker 1: I have one, um, some things in life must simply
Speaker 1: be tolerated. Okay, see I I went with a similar one.
Speaker 1: This is actually a quote from Andy Warhol. Uh. He said,
Speaker 1: you need to let the little things that would ordinarily
Speaker 1: bore you suddenly thrill. You said, I like that, I
Speaker 1: like that. I decided I wanted to play off a
Speaker 1: very interesting press conference. Um by Dean P's the defensive coordinator.
Speaker 1: Let's play a little of that great digger. We're changing
Speaker 1: the culture around his day going place okay, and it's
Speaker 1: not gonna be mediocre's not gonna be average and not
Speaker 1: gonna be in the bottom half of the league like
Speaker 1: it's been fifteen out of the last twenty years. Sick
Speaker 1: of that crap. We gotta take charge and I ain't
Speaker 1: gonna be anybody else to do it but us. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm tired everybody telling us how bad we are. After while,
Speaker 1: you start believing it, just like you tell you never
Speaker 1: tell your children and stuff like, hey, you guys, you
Speaker 1: don't you getting mad at the teacher says, you know,
Speaker 1: telling something kiddie stupid, right, You don't ever tell somebody that,
Speaker 1: because pretty soon they started believing that. Guys around here
Speaker 1: on defense sometimes believe is okay or whatever. One time
Speaker 1: out of the last twenty years about that Atlanta Falcons.
Speaker 1: Don't call our kids stupid? Alright, I'm glad we heard that.
Speaker 1: I'm not I do throw one in here. Um, just
Speaker 1: trying to change the subject almost if it. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: Falcons is uh, you know, honestly, it doesn't look great.
Speaker 1: But have you even heard about those sex robots? Oh?
Speaker 1: So it's more like a just change of subjects. Like
Speaker 1: the technology that's going on right now. It's crazy, it's crazy.
Speaker 1: How about the Baltimore Ravens, Greg, I know you have
Speaker 1: something for the Ravens, I absolutely do. We we all
Speaker 1: did our homework. I got multiple ones, but this one's
Speaker 1: this one's just simple. Oh you made Lamar mad, didn't you. Okay,
Speaker 1: the Lamar army is strong. With the Lamar is gonna
Speaker 1: be better because everyone's similarly would be just like Lamar
Speaker 1: is gonna you up what I have um. Edgar Allan
Speaker 1: Poe never watched a second of pro football, but we've
Speaker 1: chosen to co opt his poem, which he wrote in
Speaker 1: the middle of a brown liquor fuel depression in order
Speaker 1: to cook up our mascot. This is kind of like
Speaker 1: a damaged eck bit that he wasn't like that the
Speaker 1: that Poe wasn't really from there, and that the poem
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense also factual. But Poe was from Baltimore.
Speaker 1: I thought, I'm just claiming he was not a pro
Speaker 1: football fans. As far as I've gone with it, all right,
Speaker 1: you got one car, yeah, I got well I have
Speaker 1: to uh. The first one is uh, now, the least
Speaker 1: creepy team in the division. That's good, That's it, all right?
Speaker 1: And then just stunningly competent. Well, I think that puts
Speaker 1: a bow on How about the Buffalo Bills? This one
Speaker 1: is uh. I'll just throw it out there. What possibly
Speaker 1: could go wrong? I have something? I have Mine is
Speaker 1: run the same party line here. When literally everyone assumes
Speaker 1: your barn storming into the super Bowl, it's bound to
Speaker 1: happen without a single hiccup. See. This is the only
Speaker 1: problem with this is people want to be like repeating
Speaker 1: these slogans over and over all years. Shorter ones would
Speaker 1: be like in the locker room on the wall that
Speaker 1: you tap when you go in. You wanted to be
Speaker 1: on the media guy, My mine was the exact same
Speaker 1: as Dan, but with a preamble just super Bowl or bust?
Speaker 1: What could go wrong. Connor. Uh, it's too similar to
Speaker 1: to even verbalize. Um, Carolina Panthers, um my body, my rules.
Speaker 1: I like it. I don't know what it means, but
Speaker 1: I love it. We're gonna fire everybody, how about I mean,
Speaker 1: this is your team, Connor. You know, keep pounding is
Speaker 1: one of the most successful team slogans of the last
Speaker 1: Give us one, not to put you on the spot,
Speaker 1: give us one please. Well, that that was what I
Speaker 1: had written down, is we're going to fire everybody. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: give us give us a key pounding just yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1: I like there's a large segment of our listeners that
Speaker 1: do not like that. That's why it needed to keep
Speaker 1: coming back. Um picture again the media guide and it's
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield and Sam Donald back to back, arms crossed,
Speaker 1: looking at the camera in a fierce manner. Imagine it
Speaker 1: was though Chicago Bears the one I had something for this.
Speaker 1: It's similar in vantage, like changing the subject, make a
Speaker 1: weekend of it, and then um, you just have like
Speaker 1: Wrigley Field architecture, tour, nightlife, the hot dogs, the mirror
Speaker 1: sculpture thing. Just kind of play that up more. I'm
Speaker 1: not topping that one with what I had, so I
Speaker 1: am a guy said, I think you've nailed that. That's strong.
Speaker 1: I just realized they forgot about the entire NFC North.
Speaker 1: But hey, if you want an alphabetical order by city,
Speaker 1: you would not have done that. Got one, Connor, Uh,
Speaker 1: just Robert Quinn. That's our best player. That's not bad. Um.
Speaker 1: This one weirdly stumped me. So if someone could step
Speaker 1: up with the Cincinnati Bengals, I have, UM, this definitely
Speaker 1: won't go to our heads. It's actually that's one. I
Speaker 1: just I think it's good to bring enthusiasm sometimes. So
Speaker 1: just like Joe and Joe and Chase and t raw
Speaker 1: all right, I like that about you. Connor. I have
Speaker 1: enjoyed while you can this expensive another that's great? Well,
Speaker 1: another one, because I think you could just Yeah, this
Speaker 1: is something I think Mike Brown might actually do. It's
Speaker 1: just like win one for Mike Brown. I like how
Speaker 1: you can, based on what our slogans are, you can
Speaker 1: guess collectively what we think their team records to be.
Speaker 1: That's sound like nine and eight breakdown. My first one
Speaker 1: was more of a thirteen and four, just like we're
Speaker 1: partying all right, Cleveland. Brown's Connor Earth the wild Brown's
Speaker 1: fan yourself. At this point, where are we at? No,
Speaker 1: it's over. We've we've shipped out all the merchandise. H
Speaker 1: we replaced. Um. One of my kids said, a Brown's bear. Uh,
Speaker 1: And it was actually very cool. Um. One of my
Speaker 1: colleagues stepped up and said, because I said I'm getting
Speaker 1: I'm throwing this stuff out. I don't want it in
Speaker 1: my house anymore. And one of my colleagues said, okay,
Speaker 1: I'll send her a bear of a team that she
Speaker 1: can absolutely root for. So now we only were exclusively
Speaker 1: rooting for the US women's national soccer team. That's what
Speaker 1: our that's what our house does. That's quality. So you're
Speaker 1: just out on rooting for a football team. This reminds
Speaker 1: me of something I've meant to bring up on the
Speaker 1: podcast multiple times. I think it's a good spot for
Speaker 1: it's a little off topic. The Football Outsiders Almanac this
Speaker 1: year brought up Mark Sessler by name in in context
Speaker 1: of all the fans leaving the Browns, and they said, like,
Speaker 1: the most notable name, Mark Sessler of NFL, who's the
Speaker 1: author in the right up, I mean, how about that guy?
Speaker 1: Who is that guy? Rivers going to send him like
Speaker 1: a barrel of wine. But you are basically the symbol.
Speaker 1: And I guess Connor you your your Brown's love was
Speaker 1: not quite as intense as Mark, but now you're along
Speaker 1: with not quite not. The reason why Mark is in
Speaker 1: that right up is because, hey, stay Stu Gott's Mark
Speaker 1: is a very public figure in the football realm at
Speaker 1: this point, and nobody had the passion for the Browns
Speaker 1: that Mark did. So I'm totally signing off on football.
Speaker 1: That's just good work by the outsiders. I appreciate that
Speaker 1: the symbol of people jumping ship. I'm looking for the
Speaker 1: exact you know, right up, but that you would you know,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of Browns fans in Cleveland that basically
Speaker 1: hate anyone that did that. There's I hear about it
Speaker 1: all the time on Twitter and to get that's happened,
Speaker 1: that would be happening any fan base. Before we get
Speaker 1: to this, and I don't want to get too far afield,
Speaker 1: but we talked about and very you know, notably Ian
Speaker 1: was on the show. We talked about the insiders and
Speaker 1: various how the story was reported. You know, all the
Speaker 1: reporters on Twitter that are like sending out photos of
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson posing with children and signing footballs and like
Speaker 1: quotes like we love you de Shaun and all the
Speaker 1: stuff like. That's that's similar to me that what you
Speaker 1: were talking about, Greg, like and I know now the
Speaker 1: money is not involved and you're not doing the quote
Speaker 1: unquote work of the agent. I think that to me
Speaker 1: was notable. But it's also you know, it's a gray
Speaker 1: area morally, I think because of what's going on, and
Speaker 1: also can be seen as doing a favor for that agent,
Speaker 1: who a lot of these reporters have very close relationship
Speaker 1: Mark does not. And this is the right up. The
Speaker 1: Browns have heard and lost many fans because of this trade.
Speaker 1: NFL dot COM's Mark Sessler perhaps the most prominent and
Speaker 1: public about it. Well, I think part of it slogan
Speaker 1: now have to say that that's the right up in
Speaker 1: my favorite football preview of the year, and I've never
Speaker 1: been mentioned in it, and there you are bringing up
Speaker 1: like I I I think that would work as a slogan,
Speaker 1: uh sort of all right. My slogan though, is you
Speaker 1: know a little more to the point, just what what
Speaker 1: oh whatever? You would have done it too? Well. There
Speaker 1: were other teams that did want to do it? Got
Speaker 1: one Connor I went with because the area code they
Speaker 1: call themselves the two one six. Uh, so I I
Speaker 1: said the two one sick of fants? Mark, don't think
Speaker 1: that my popular strange conn. I have his zip code
Speaker 1: in mine um and it goes like this, come on
Speaker 1: down to our Satanic black Mass this Saturday evening PM
Speaker 1: at dark Forest Court, Circleville, Ohio. Was zip code for
Speaker 1: I can't beat that. Let's move forward, Uh, Dallas Cowboys,
Speaker 1: you know, I think this is playingoff again. The exercise
Speaker 1: to me is what is the team want to put
Speaker 1: out there? What is the vibe that they want to
Speaker 1: kind of reinforce ahead of the season. They're very sense
Speaker 1: of about this Mike McCarthy situation at Sean Payton. And
Speaker 1: you know my feelings about Mike McCarthy. Zaddy ain't going
Speaker 1: nowhere because he lost wait. I don't know if you
Speaker 1: heard in his introductory press conference his workout routine was
Speaker 1: a topic of conversation that he lost a lot of weight.
Speaker 1: He's fitter, uh and he even like would think of
Speaker 1: the media sometime while he was in his workout for motivations.
Speaker 1: He was kind of taking some jobs here, but he's
Speaker 1: looking like a real Zaddi. Meanwhile, Andy Reid is grinding
Speaker 1: film there. Don't be don't be used the Zaddie like that,
Speaker 1: don't do don't do that. Anybody else got one for
Speaker 1: the Cowboys? I have just based off that vibe, Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 1: It's us versus the guy she told you not to
Speaker 1: worry about anybody else. All right, let's move to the
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos. I have a very dumb one. Are you
Speaker 1: coming up with a bunch of these? And some of
Speaker 1: them just like this is a clunker, but I could
Speaker 1: see it um attracting a certain type of person. You're
Speaker 1: going off the head coach's last name. The team shouts out,
Speaker 1: we can hack it? Can you hack it? And then
Speaker 1: the fans the fans say back, yes, I will Son
Speaker 1: like Wilson, but will com a son like You're like
Speaker 1: you're speaking to a child. Maybe the team up shake
Speaker 1: with attitude like Mark. It's also incredibly for That was
Speaker 1: the social clip, right there was Mark doing I love that.
Speaker 1: I think that was really good. I'm gonna come up
Speaker 1: with one that that I think just it works. It's
Speaker 1: got a certain ring to it. Let's ride. I think
Speaker 1: they they've got their slogan. Yeah, mine's like, embrace the cringe.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be super cringing this year. Russell Wilson's gonna
Speaker 1: do a bunch of corny stuff, but he's also gonna
Speaker 1: win you a bunch of games. How about you, Connor?
Speaker 1: I was it's saying, like, you know Javonte some more
Speaker 1: or something like that, you know, as work shopping a
Speaker 1: little bit. Yeah, I'm gonna yeah. I was just kind
Speaker 1: of hoping you wouldn't call me for that one. Go
Speaker 1: with the guy who's like in a split backfield, the
Speaker 1: Detroit Lions. I have. Well, aren't you so original for
Speaker 1: picking us as your final wild card team in the NFC?
Speaker 1: It's perfect. This is what happens. It's like the off
Speaker 1: season is too long, and now we're pushing against the
Speaker 1: things that we all kind of like, I'm just getting
Speaker 1: ahead of that, right, You're right. I have faster Pussycat
Speaker 1: Kill Kill, which is a film title, but they are
Speaker 1: like cats in a way, and I think they want
Speaker 1: to be aggressive and win on both sides of the line.
Speaker 1: I like that. How about you, Connor, We're gonna suck
Speaker 1: at full speed. Speaking of the lines, they are the
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks team and around the NFL podcast has a
Speaker 1: big Hard Knocks announcement coming up on Monday. That's a tease.
Speaker 1: That's an industry piece. Leave it at that. This is
Speaker 1: my I'm in my NFC north black right right, right right,
Speaker 1: all right? Uh, Connor, what do you got for the
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers? Uh, I'm gonna pass on this one
Speaker 1: because I had a long list of troubling um sort
Speaker 1: of vaccine related jokes that that I was work shopping
Speaker 1: last year, and so I'm just gonna I'm gonna let
Speaker 1: that one. I'm as much like, it's not like, it's
Speaker 1: not like our feelings on the matter of change, but
Speaker 1: just the vaccine jokes not popping as much, not as timely,
Speaker 1: not coming in at ninety seven on the corner anymore,
Speaker 1: how about you. This was also halfway workshopped um. It says,
Speaker 1: among other things, we've convinced humans from the Midwest to
Speaker 1: wear massive pieces of cheese on their heads. It shows
Speaker 1: the power of the pack internal power in Wisconsin and
Speaker 1: the surrounding territories. For me, well, guess what timeout tug about?
Speaker 1: Time out? I'm not talking about the packers in this exercise.
Speaker 1: They don't talk about the time out. Remember that Houston Texas.
Speaker 1: I don't have anything for the Houston Texas Texas they went.
Speaker 1: I went with just try and find where we buried
Speaker 1: David Culley. Seriously, what happened to that guy? An actual
Speaker 1: challenge were challenged you to find the body. You could
Speaker 1: be doing a thing where like you don't get another job,
Speaker 1: so you'd keep the pay you got from the Houston Texas.
Speaker 1: Because at least with the with the ball boys, with
Speaker 1: the flake Gate, the Patriots at least said, hey, we
Speaker 1: buried those guys under the mass Pike, so you knew
Speaker 1: it was that thoroughfare. And it's still that's a very
Speaker 1: large roadway. But at least you had a general idea
Speaker 1: where they buried those bodies. After the murders, we don't
Speaker 1: know where David Culley know those two boys are findable.
Speaker 1: They're dead, Cully is it's it's it's undetective. How about
Speaker 1: even seven winds would feel amazing, like scept the bar fairly,
Speaker 1: because it's true, if they won seven games, it would
Speaker 1: feel like everything is amazing in Houston, like everything about
Speaker 1: Watson is gone. I have um a raffle copter just
Speaker 1: crashed onto our lawn. What's a rolling on the floor
Speaker 1: laughing copter. I didn't know that was the thing. Capital
Speaker 1: capital r o f L Copter. It's like a like
Speaker 1: it's super funny. Now this isn't This isn't a callback
Speaker 1: to the rosen Copter Sage rosen Fells his famous play
Speaker 1: as a member of the Houston Texans where he spun
Speaker 1: in the air and fumbled the ball. But that's that's uh,
Speaker 1: Indianapolis cults this one, I think again, playing into what
Speaker 1: they want you to remember and what you want to
Speaker 1: think about at all times now with one percent less
Speaker 1: wentz m M. That's good. How about it? Similarly like
Speaker 1: chugging ice cold Maddie ice and forget those student loans. Strange.
Speaker 1: It's like left football this season, forget about forget about
Speaker 1: all that I have good but not great Part seven.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's about right. Am. I allowed to swear on
Speaker 1: this last year, but let it rip, buddy, alright, So
Speaker 1: I have you guys reopened Napolie Pizza? Yes, thank you, Connor.
Speaker 1: Napoli's Pizza was the gem of Combine Week that Connor
Speaker 1: had discovered it years earlier, and it became a tradition
Speaker 1: for around the NFL. We would all go together. We'd
Speaker 1: have these specialty pies in the wood, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: brick oven pizza. We'd have some wine, some Tito's, and
Speaker 1: we'd be flying. I think we got to come to
Speaker 1: it's COVID's fault, though. I think I got wiped by COVID.
Speaker 1: I believe Napolie I UM. I was working on a
Speaker 1: story for the magazine and I ran across another player
Speaker 1: who was born in Indianapolis in the team facility that
Speaker 1: I was at, and um he we were talking about
Speaker 1: Indianapolis with such depth that he goes, oh, were you
Speaker 1: born there? He's like like where were you? And I
Speaker 1: was like, don't know. I I just have a lot
Speaker 1: of takes. But Napolis really took up the majority of
Speaker 1: our conversation. This player was also very very upset. I
Speaker 1: remember that like one week where the entire NFL media
Speaker 1: acted like Indianapolis was Paris in the forties and like
Speaker 1: made sure that combine didn't move. That was weird Paris, No,
Speaker 1: how could we ever move on from Indianapolis. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say Paris in the that was the terrible I really meant,
Speaker 1: I really meant yeah, Actually that was I think there
Speaker 1: was a Nazi at one point. That was That was
Speaker 1: the worst historical reference I've ever made. All right, I
Speaker 1: was singing more like Bella Poc. You know, I got you.
Speaker 1: We all know where you're attempting to go with it,
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville's Jaguars. Mark uh. If fourteen times you don't succeed,
Speaker 1: try try again, Connor, I have a rut and shoot
Speaker 1: more like press and coot press Taylor, Okay, and I
Speaker 1: forgot he's there to we to bleep that out to Taylor.
Speaker 1: I can't that. I don't beat that, but I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go with We drafted the last two number one overall picks.
Speaker 1: The other thirty one teams didn't draft any zero for
Speaker 1: the other thirty two. That's factual. That's just facts. The
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs, Now, this one's a little weird because
Speaker 1: I don't know how they're gonna promote this. But I
Speaker 1: have a gift for the Chiefs connected to you know,
Speaker 1: they're missing Tyreek Hill. Honey Badger is gone. I still
Speaker 1: think about that second half of the a f C
Speaker 1: title game like all the time and what happened to
Speaker 1: the team. So here it is in gift form. This
Speaker 1: is the slogan of the team. Yes, my favorite movie,
Speaker 1: right Frank Dreban, Lieutenant Frank Drebban from Naked Gun. Nothing
Speaker 1: to see here, trying to wave off people away from
Speaker 1: the exploding fireworks factory. Everything's fine, We'll be thirteen and four,
Speaker 1: SENI in January. That's that's what we're trying to get
Speaker 1: a across, even though I don't think that's true, right you.
Speaker 1: Using this clip also indicates where you're at with the chiefs.
Speaker 1: I'm not with you. I'm not with the I have
Speaker 1: something that they could spin off of what you've said.
Speaker 1: Um again, clunky, I'm not happy with some of these.
Speaker 1: But no, Tyreek, don't freak, will peak not Reek like that.
Speaker 1: It's the same thing in a different, different, different delivery,
Speaker 1: lesser angle. Nothing how about you Connor Just you know,
Speaker 1: I this is less of a phrase and just more
Speaker 1: of an observation. But it is the team of sportswriters
Speaker 1: who are going to wait until and say nothing when
Speaker 1: they start like oh and three, and then when they're
Speaker 1: seven and three, just be like. I want to hear
Speaker 1: from everybody who said Pedro Holmes wasn't good after I
Speaker 1: remember that last year, and I was like, you know what,
Speaker 1: they were bad for a while because teams learned how
Speaker 1: to stop our pos. Like they were bad for a
Speaker 1: little while, and they don't have a running game. We
Speaker 1: could point that out. You know, I'm thinking of like
Speaker 1: one person in particular that I want to know. I
Speaker 1: want to know who it was. This was a good take.
Speaker 1: It wasn't a slogan at all, but I liked it.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break and then finish
Speaker 1: it off. All right, we're back, we are we left
Speaker 1: off with the Chiefs. How about Las Vegas? The Las
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders? Greggy, what do you got? Davante Adams left
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers for us? That's good capital of I mean,
Speaker 1: what else do you need to hear to be excited
Speaker 1: about the Raiders? How about you? Connor? The Hooters that
Speaker 1: used to be here has changed locations? Did they have
Speaker 1: the Hooters at Allegiance Stadium? They used to employ they
Speaker 1: used to employ the Hooters spokesperson. Very good? How about you? Mark?
Speaker 1: I have nobody believes in US saved for the seventies
Speaker 1: seven percent of football scribes who claim we have an
Speaker 1: excellent chance to make the postseason. Yeah, I got jackpot Ellipses.
Speaker 1: Maybe I can't believe Brett Musburger is not the play
Speaker 1: by play guy anymore he's getting Maybe he just needed
Speaker 1: that that extra cash towards the end. All right, the
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Charger. I don't mean it's say it that way,
Speaker 1: but I mean time saying the end of pace run
Speaker 1: with the team. I got l A Chargers. Okay, but
Speaker 1: this time for real? How about we we drafted Justin
Speaker 1: Herbert and Rayson Slater and back to back years. Are
Speaker 1: you kidding me? I mean that's pretty good. All pros.
Speaker 1: You know, that's good. It's good, but now we need results.
Speaker 1: I don't have them for the same connor not going Staley.
Speaker 1: That's better. That's good. Los Angeles Rams, Mark, I know
Speaker 1: you got something that I do. Um, We've got a quip,
Speaker 1: but I'll read it first. See, there's no question the
Speaker 1: L A Rams are right for you. The question is
Speaker 1: are you right for the L A Rams? Which I
Speaker 1: kind of think it is their vibe because they're kind
Speaker 1: of like, we don't really we're good. We go do
Speaker 1: things our own way. But this is based off of
Speaker 1: very um ponderous commercial from See there's no question grape
Speaker 1: nuts is right for you? Question is are you right
Speaker 1: for grape nuts? Remember that serial idea? What that has
Speaker 1: to do with the Rams? But I like that was
Speaker 1: a that was kind of a gen X pop culture callback.
Speaker 1: Even Boomer Yeah, that's uh. I remembered it as a
Speaker 1: child that this guy like his wandering to the wilderness
Speaker 1: trying to tell you that he's basically better than you.
Speaker 1: Because of the serial heat, I don't think the Rams
Speaker 1: are not saying They're just saying we're good. It's a
Speaker 1: pretty compelling food product slogan, be like, you're good enough
Speaker 1: for us? Um, what do you have? Connor? At some point,
Speaker 1: it's going to really suck to work here? Why what
Speaker 1: is that? I mean, this team is gonna I mean
Speaker 1: in two years, this team is gonna be really bad
Speaker 1: when Matt Stafford leaves and Jalen Ramsey can't cover anybody
Speaker 1: and Sean McVeigh quits to make eighty five million dollars
Speaker 1: a year calling him when they leaves. Sure, but people
Speaker 1: have been saying that this thing is gonna for five
Speaker 1: years and they're the most consistently successful team in the year.
Speaker 1: And Stafford and Ramsey are and old it's gonna really
Speaker 1: like in four years. Ye, so you're gonna say six season.
Speaker 1: But you know what if that means that you know
Speaker 1: they have they already have the Lombardi and they're they're
Speaker 1: going to have a few more years of the window open.
Speaker 1: I would sign up for that as a fan. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think they should go with something more like repeating
Speaker 1: as champions totally easy, because Connor, I don't think that
Speaker 1: slogan is getting past team walls. The one that you've suggested, well,
Speaker 1: there's been a few like that that's neither will this one.
Speaker 1: We exist the drive Mark Sesler crazy, I don't have
Speaker 1: this animal. I think last year what they accomplished kind
Speaker 1: of it's like, all right, you wouldn't did it, which
Speaker 1: before they did anything. Here's an important one because obviously
Speaker 1: this organization's in Sports Illustrated and many other publications for
Speaker 1: very bad things right now. So they need a kick
Speaker 1: ass slogan to change the narrative. Connor, what do you
Speaker 1: have for the Dolphins? That's sort of a version of
Speaker 1: the same thing. So I was just saying, like, wait,
Speaker 1: you thought we were serious or or I was just
Speaker 1: messing with you guys, you know, something like that. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't think you want to bring attention to it.
Speaker 1: I think you just go the teal is gonna make
Speaker 1: you squeal. Oh, it's good, it's good. You gotta pipe
Speaker 1: in the axe. That's important. Mark. I don't think mine
Speaker 1: is appropriate. Well that now we really need to hear it.
Speaker 1: It's it just seems off tone based on how you
Speaker 1: interrode the Dolphins. But I just said, la la, not
Speaker 1: the owner alert Minnesota Vikings I have now with a
Speaker 1: less chance of a head coach on quarterback homicide. Just
Speaker 1: that's a positive that it's definitely good. Anybody else I
Speaker 1: have the Vikings originated from an area that became modern
Speaker 1: day Scandinavia, that we're gonna act like they evolved from
Speaker 1: central Minnesota, and you're going to play along with it.
Speaker 1: M that's gonna be a tough one to sell, but
Speaker 1: it's good to give them options. Connor, I went with
Speaker 1: Vikings comfortably numb. That's that's good. How about you, Greg
Speaker 1: NFC North, I'm just I'm just um not doing it.
Speaker 1: That's crop that division. I thought maybe you had scrambled
Speaker 1: and got something that's all right. The Patriots, all right,
Speaker 1: I know you got the Patriots Greggy, I do. Uh,
Speaker 1: Mac Jones is perfect. Can you believe it? All right?
Speaker 1: I mean it just fell right into their laps. Well,
Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see, how about you, Greg Mark, I
Speaker 1: do not have the one thing I noticed about doing
Speaker 1: this in alpbetical order that my selection started to slim
Speaker 1: and disappear as we got down on the list. Fewer
Speaker 1: and fewer. We're getting work ethic fatigue. But that's okay,
Speaker 1: how about you? Connor Um I I did. We're getting
Speaker 1: back to spy game. They've got kind of the seedy
Speaker 1: situation where no coach has a title or anything. Like
Speaker 1: they're they're getting the old They're getting the old black
Speaker 1: Ops team back together. We're doing some shady stuff. Baby.
Speaker 1: I think I think they need it. I you know,
Speaker 1: I just spent a couple of weeks at the Jersey shore,
Speaker 1: and you know you see that it's like the big
Speaker 1: beefy boy on the on the beach, like building the
Speaker 1: sand castle and the fort in front of the sand.
Speaker 1: He's like a large boy, like he's a he's an
Speaker 1: i'll say, heavy set boy. Sure, I don't want to
Speaker 1: be I mean, but now picture Matt Patricia's head photoshopped
Speaker 1: on the boy with Big Matt's got the shovel in
Speaker 1: the sandbox now, but it's a sandbox and not a beach,
Speaker 1: so we're we're work shopping it. I like it. I
Speaker 1: think it's it's kind of a pr strategy, almost lean
Speaker 1: into what people are negative about you. You know, it's
Speaker 1: like change the narrative. Mats actually our strength. He's calling
Speaker 1: the plays, right, he looks like he's the Pike calls.
Speaker 1: They just can't give him the title because he won't
Speaker 1: get that Lions money. All right. How about the Saints Connor?
Speaker 1: Uh huh? Maybe our old coach was kind of a jerk.
Speaker 1: Anybody I've got too many. Um, it's a mouthful. But
Speaker 1: don't worry that defensive d v o A is not
Speaker 1: as consistent annually as offensive d v o A. We're different.
Speaker 1: I have n SFW not safe for work. This team,
Speaker 1: to me gives me that vibe. Anything can happen with him. Um.
Speaker 1: I am attracted to them in many ways that I wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I was not in previous years, and I kind of
Speaker 1: like all the change and to see how they operate
Speaker 1: in the NFC South, which they can win. I'm tempering
Speaker 1: it a little bit with if four things go exactly right,
Speaker 1: we'll see you in the NFC title game. That's good.
Speaker 1: I had another option, which was we brought it. We
Speaker 1: kept every person Sean Payton has ever hired, and we
Speaker 1: broadened his son, so it's like he never left. Right,
Speaker 1: how about the Giants. We'll be better than the Jets,
Speaker 1: just like, really bring that rivalry up, you know, just
Speaker 1: like there's not much heat to the rivalry right now. Connor,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm stealing this from my podcast co host, but
Speaker 1: I feel like it's like a nice cross pod thing
Speaker 1: here where we can say, like, hey, listen to the
Speaker 1: mm qbat podcast. Yeah, no problem, but we're gonna go
Speaker 1: with Abraca Daniel. Wait, and who is your co host?
Speaker 1: That changed that that it came up with this? That
Speaker 1: was that was Gary Grambling. That was I believe in
Speaker 1: Adventure Time reference. Al Right, you got one more I
Speaker 1: do for the Jets are next team? Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 1: Well last year I guess I went with um, once
Speaker 1: you go, Zack, you never go back. But I'm switching
Speaker 1: it up this time too. If this doesn't work, we
Speaker 1: just resort to cannibalism, right, potentially, what about you, Greg
Speaker 1: uh this year will wait longer before ruining Dan's optimism.
Speaker 1: I'll take it. That's that's a positive. Connor former beat Jets,
Speaker 1: beat and I went with choosy moms, choose Jets. Um,
Speaker 1: I got a very a very impressive picture of Zach
Speaker 1: the beefy boy becomes a thick man. M I like
Speaker 1: the Eagles. Oh, go ahead, what you got? I was
Speaker 1: there the day that Robert Sala called him thick with
Speaker 1: a C. Yeah. How did that go? What was the
Speaker 1: vibe in the room in that momentous moment in football history? Um,
Speaker 1: I think we all felt it, you know. Uh, there
Speaker 1: was definitely an anticipation to then see the thickness. I
Speaker 1: do well. I I respect your football acumen. What do
Speaker 1: you think about my Jets? Is your Connor? I think
Speaker 1: that they're They're a lot younger than people still believe
Speaker 1: they are kind of light. Ever be allowed on the
Speaker 1: show again if I say anything negative in August about
Speaker 1: the Jets. I think if they win seven games, it's
Speaker 1: a tremendous leap. And uh, I would keep Robert Saul
Speaker 1: if they did that, because I think that would be
Speaker 1: a really spectacular thing. I think people don't realize how
Speaker 1: bad that roster was two years ago. It was it
Speaker 1: was really bad. Uh yeah, I don't think that that
Speaker 1: could be definitely a signed a success, but it does
Speaker 1: go back to the beefy thick boy. How about the
Speaker 1: Eagles hurt so good? Okay, I actually could see that.
Speaker 1: That is one where Yeah, it's it's simple, it's it's
Speaker 1: concerning because I had I had in my mind almost
Speaker 1: the same exact thing and decided that feels like maybe
Speaker 1: you already U is a slogan for them. It's sort
Speaker 1: of a cliche, right, how about you, Connor? I just
Speaker 1: I was gonna do like a big billboard with just
Speaker 1: a very close picture of Howie Roseman's face the GM
Speaker 1: and just say like Howie mother, you know, like he's
Speaker 1: he's he's so good, Like he's just he's playing three
Speaker 1: D chess with everybody. He got out of that that
Speaker 1: side building that they put him in for one year
Speaker 1: with Chip and he is on fire. We're giving Graver
Speaker 1: a lot of work here with the swearing. Yeah, sorry
Speaker 1: about that. The Pittsburgh Steelers, how about um Acquis Short Stadium?
Speaker 1: Why did we do that? So they're calling attention to
Speaker 1: that interesting strategy. But maybe we'll work so new newly
Speaker 1: regular listener Walker Rosenthal was watching me put this together
Speaker 1: the other evening and he came up with the Steelers
Speaker 1: that he wanted to come up with one um, and
Speaker 1: it was just the Steelers are gonna steal the ball.
Speaker 1: That's okay, Walk, I'll throw that in there. That's a workshop.
Speaker 1: I like, he's getting going, he's getting his feet wet.
Speaker 1: He knows how his age audience would would think something
Speaker 1: to think. I think his age would like that one.
Speaker 1: Uh anybody else on the Steelers, Yeah, I mean as
Speaker 1: tough as that one is to follow. Um, I was
Speaker 1: gonna was gonna say, Mitch is brew os Well he's
Speaker 1: on the bench. Ye, nobody has a Mason Rudolph based
Speaker 1: on his scintillating camp so far. Yeah, Mitch's brew would
Speaker 1: be a good podcast title, like if if he has
Speaker 1: a big game, we gotta remember that truth. How about
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers? Connor? Um I can I I
Speaker 1: can just co opt my RAMS one, which is at
Speaker 1: some point, uh much sooner than the Rams. It's gonna
Speaker 1: really suck to work here. Wow. See I like your
Speaker 1: take on this because everyone basically views McVeigh and Shanahan
Speaker 1: is infallible, but you feel will that fouls are coming.
Speaker 1: It's going to be very okay. So yeah, this is
Speaker 1: this is the reason. I think. So every time Sean
Speaker 1: McVeigh loses someone like someone is running to fill that vacancy.
Speaker 1: Every time Kyle Shannon loses a coach, who's running to
Speaker 1: fill those vacancies? Like who's who's tripping over themselves to
Speaker 1: uh to get into that building? Right now? I don't think.
Speaker 1: I don't think very many and smelling some under the
Speaker 1: radar reporting being done and I like it. I like it,
Speaker 1: we see it. Anybody else got Niners Seahawks? I have
Speaker 1: this one built, you know, one thing. And we've talked
Speaker 1: on this podcast a lot about Geno Smith and this
Speaker 1: big stage for him. But I don't think enough has
Speaker 1: been made about now that we now we have a
Speaker 1: potential starting quarterback in the NFL and a head coach
Speaker 1: or also the league's two leading conspiracy theorists. I think
Speaker 1: there's something there from a promotional aspect. So I got
Speaker 1: Earth's flatten jet fuel, don't melt steam, steel beams? Mine
Speaker 1: is Gino asked to um, happily catering to Greg's dens
Speaker 1: and slightly confusing Gino fetish at the expense of an
Speaker 1: entire fan base. I'm going with that whole New Yorker
Speaker 1: story about the earthquake destroying the Pacific Northwest hasn't come
Speaker 1: true yet, So let's have some fun out there. Interesting, interesting, interesting. Uh, Connor,
Speaker 1: I don't have them, but I'm just enjoying like Pete
Speaker 1: Carroll showing the entire team loose change on YouTube, and uh,
Speaker 1: it's just, uh, it's a really fun visual for me.
Speaker 1: How about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Connor, Tampa Bay Buccaneers,
Speaker 1: We're kicking the can down the road. It's like Connor
Speaker 1: hates teams that don't have like like seventeen year long
Speaker 1: building plans. They're they're doing fine. They're a favorite. I
Speaker 1: didn't really have one here nothing. For some reason. To
Speaker 1: come up with one. My thought was like, we're gonna
Speaker 1: we're going to massively bite the minute Tom Brady exit
Speaker 1: stage left. Yeah, well that's most likely the way it's
Speaker 1: gonna play. How about the Tennessee Titans, Grave Digger, Why
Speaker 1: don't you jump in on this one? All right, I've
Speaker 1: got the Titans, remember us, that's pretty good. Remember Remember
Speaker 1: the people are overlooking yeah, playing into the Titans fan
Speaker 1: base inferiority complex writing the number one see please all right?
Speaker 1: I like that mine mine is the Titans are cool,
Speaker 1: the Titans are fresh. T I t a n say
Speaker 1: it from your chest. I can't. I can't stand by
Speaker 1: that one. I don't know what it was, where it
Speaker 1: came from in your mind. I gotta I think, just
Speaker 1: like every once in a while, you just gotta have
Speaker 1: like really overly charting cheers. Yeah right, yeah, okay, So
Speaker 1: like you said, picture the media guide, um, and then
Speaker 1: this is kind of going to be sort of the
Speaker 1: main headline Tennessee Titans. Last year, Connor Ore sat in
Speaker 1: Sports Illustrati that you'd be looking for a quarterback and
Speaker 1: all your idiot fans tweeted him saying he was wrong,
Speaker 1: and look who's wrong? Now you're all idiots. That was
Speaker 1: going to be the kind of the slogan. You know what?
Speaker 1: And I think you want do you want to answer that,
Speaker 1: great digger as a fan? Hey, uh, Ryan Tannehill is
Speaker 1: back this year. Technically you were wrong, So technically draft
Speaker 1: Milik Willis. So I guess they did look Finally, last
Speaker 1: and perhaps least, uh, the Washington Commanders I have go
Speaker 1: back to whence you came about you, Connor, I was
Speaker 1: just gonna say, like, your your classic old lovable Commanders um.
Speaker 1: And the reason that I say that is because they
Speaker 1: they seem to have been acting now like they're just
Speaker 1: pretending they've been the Commanders for the last thirty years
Speaker 1: now that they've rebranded, and they're just like, oh, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: this is all like yeah, they have throwback uniforms, even
Speaker 1: though it's their first year in this new uniform with
Speaker 1: this new team, and I just love the you know,
Speaker 1: just the complete ignorance of the past, and it's just like, yeah, no, no,
Speaker 1: we've trying to red the entire experience. Very confused. It
Speaker 1: is confusing when it's like, yeah, I remember when when
Speaker 1: the Hogs were going to the Super Bowl with the
Speaker 1: Commanders back in the day. That was awesome. I think
Speaker 1: we're kind of overlooking the most obvious slogan on the
Speaker 1: board here it is now it's time to all come
Speaker 1: together and begin to take command. As we all know.
Speaker 1: I decided to really go ahead and start to take command. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they already basically, And it's funny because I had a
Speaker 1: similar thought that we we already have it it's right
Speaker 1: at the tips of our fingertips here. It is a
Speaker 1: lot of commanders in Washington, d C. And the Pentagon.
Speaker 1: That's good these facts. What is it called when, um,
Speaker 1: you you bring your yacht back to shore? What is
Speaker 1: that called? I wish I knew, because if I knew docking,
Speaker 1: there would be a whole other boring boring. But I
Speaker 1: like where you're going, you know what I mean, Like
Speaker 1: it could be like let's dock it, like let's you know,
Speaker 1: like all right back to port. That's pretty good. That's
Speaker 1: pretty good. Um, all right, there you go again. Those
Speaker 1: are all pro bono. Uh, that's pro bono work from us.
Speaker 1: If any team wants to lift it, I would say,
Speaker 1: attribute us, you know, let let people know where it
Speaker 1: came from. But we're not. We don't have our hands
Speaker 1: out at least I'll speak for myself. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm with you on that stance. And um Connor, you've
Speaker 1: said it all, you've done it all. Anything to anything
Speaker 1: to plug of course, you have your mm qb uh podcast.
Speaker 1: What else? Well, I would say, August the football preview
Speaker 1: issue comes out, like you know, let's go out, let's
Speaker 1: go to the news stand. I do this every month,
Speaker 1: even though I get a copy at my house, Like
Speaker 1: go out to the grocery store and I buy it.
Speaker 1: You know, you should, you should do this. You should
Speaker 1: go out and buy it because you know what, it's
Speaker 1: a great it's a great issue. It's a lot of
Speaker 1: really good stories in there. And you don't need to
Speaker 1: enter your email address, you don't need to give anybody
Speaker 1: any credit card information. It's just you can. You can
Speaker 1: take it anywhere. You can take it to the beach.
Speaker 1: You got you got a rock or full of all
Speaker 1: star still you got Greg Bishop, one of the best
Speaker 1: in the game. You're cranking them out. What kind of
Speaker 1: story did you cover in this or what was something
Speaker 1: that would be notable if you did uh there there
Speaker 1: there there might be some or on the cover. So
Speaker 1: that's what we're talking about. So let's uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it would be wild if it was
Speaker 1: actually or on the cover, like just you, that would
Speaker 1: be amazing. And it's this, it's a screen grab from this.
Speaker 1: It's like it's like or are you kidding me? Like
Speaker 1: like SI dot com Rod writer is not taking any
Speaker 1: guff do you connor do you s I? They have
Speaker 1: the regional covers now right, is there national cover as well?
Speaker 1: How does that break down? We are, um, so this
Speaker 1: one will be really cool. I don't know. I don't
Speaker 1: know how much I'm allowed to I don't know how
Speaker 1: much I'm allowed to say. But it's going to it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a national cover. Um, and it's gonna but
Speaker 1: it's gonna be cool. There's a cool element to it.
Speaker 1: And that's all I can allude to. So it's it's
Speaker 1: very it's it's very very fun, very cool. You've sold me.
Speaker 1: I'm going mine. Yes. Back in the back in the day,
Speaker 1: Dr Z would have his Super Bowl picks on the cover.
Speaker 1: Who is does anyone take that space or that that role? Now?
Speaker 1: Is maybe you? We we UM we workshop it. So
Speaker 1: we have all of our NFL raiders and editors and
Speaker 1: um head editors in a text group and then they say,
Speaker 1: all right, here's you know, five or six potential ones there, um,
Speaker 1: and we will fight about it and then we will
Speaker 1: come to sort of um will kind of come to
Speaker 1: an agreeable conclusion something we can all live with at
Speaker 1: the end. And finally, I just noticed, in addition to
Speaker 1: a T shirt that a fan had made connected to
Speaker 1: our podcast. You have the my not um Frisbee um
Speaker 1: hanging on the wall prominently as well. My not, of course,
Speaker 1: was the city in North Dakota. I believe that was
Speaker 1: your site for your Madden or something, some type of simulation,
Speaker 1: video game, simulation franchise. Do you have any updates in
Speaker 1: that realm? Before we say goodbye? I'm still um. I
Speaker 1: played a video game for the This is how sad
Speaker 1: dad life is. You are any are you game or
Speaker 1: any of you guys gaming it up right now? Or no? No?
Speaker 1: I play a little bit of golf on my old
Speaker 1: PS four, but with the kids sometimes. Yeah, we have
Speaker 1: Madden in our house. Okay, see I'm not there yet.
Speaker 1: And so I played. I played video games for the
Speaker 1: first time in about a year. Uh. Last weekend with
Speaker 1: my wife we played Risk on on Nintendo Switch. So, um,
Speaker 1: that's how far out I am on on everything. But
Speaker 1: I still thought rosters anymore. Well, I would say this,
Speaker 1: I would say it's coming. Uh, it's in the works,
Speaker 1: but probably not in the foreseeable future. I mean, but
Speaker 1: the question hasn't changed. Why not my not? You know
Speaker 1: you still have a key to the city. I still
Speaker 1: haven't gotten it. I still haven't gotten it, all right,
Speaker 1: if it still connected to the city of my Not,
Speaker 1: North Dakota is listening, please please reach out to us
Speaker 1: and we'll get you Connor's address and everything to make
Speaker 1: that wrong right, and also to the listeners. My Not
Speaker 1: has a Wikipedia page, and yet there's no section of
Speaker 1: it dedicated to Connor and this podcast. That must be adjusted.
Speaker 1: And we know how Wikipedia works. Wink wink, nudge nudge.
Speaker 1: If somebody wants to go in there and write a
Speaker 1: detailed connor or history of Connor or around the NFL
Speaker 1: and and the city of my Not entry, I think
Speaker 1: it stays in. I don't think it gets factual. It's
Speaker 1: going to get yanked because of some no nonsense. It's
Speaker 1: a factual report about Connor's deep, m embedded relationship with
Speaker 1: the town. All right, that's it, Connor, You've said it all. Connor,
Speaker 1: Bye bye. We do have a little bit of breaking
Speaker 1: news here. Well, that's the developing, dry developing works. I
Speaker 1: would call this developing absolutely. Marquis Hollywood brown Hair spent
Speaker 1: Wednesday morning in jail after getting arrested for criminal speeding.
Speaker 1: So if you get arrested for speeding, you're going mother
Speaker 1: fan fast that I don't even know anything about the story.
Speaker 1: But what how bad was the speeding? TMZ recording uh
Speaker 1: TMZ reporting that he was stopped around seven oh five am.
Speaker 1: That's pretty much the details on it at this point.
Speaker 1: I told you Cardinals disorganized in the desert. You win,
Speaker 1: You win again, Mark, I mean, I'm not viewing. This
Speaker 1: is a huge victory in this particular case. We'll see
Speaker 1: what happened the the They practiced very early uh in
Speaker 1: Arizona to beat the heat. This absolutely feels like a
Speaker 1: late for work situation. You do not want to be
Speaker 1: late for your training. As he just came off the
Speaker 1: n f I list with that hamsering injury and then
Speaker 1: Bang arrested. As arrest go this, you know should um
Speaker 1: be handled pretty smoothly unless there's more to this story.
Speaker 1: All right, very good, good update there. We'll be back
Speaker 1: on Friday, Yeah, from Ramscy. The defending champions will be there.
Speaker 1: We'll have guests talk about the rams NFC, have some
Speaker 1: fun along the way. Until then, heave a call. M
