12
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:00.439
In case you guys did know,
well, I'm just kidding. That's not
13
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:04.400
right, is it? Sometimes he
won the award, but you know,
14
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:10.439
strictly, uh, strictly regular season. I think there's no question that Kyle
15
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:14.719
Tucker did not have a good postseason. Uh just a hutch or is that
16
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:15.799
where you're going with you want to
stick with that, I'll give you.
17
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:21.280
You can buy either a vowel or
you can use your You could have a
18
00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:25.239
lifeline. You call somebody. Let's
see. No, I'm gonna go final
19
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:29.599
answer, you are, final answer. Yeah, Kyle Tucker struggled in the
20
00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:33.079
postseason. Dig dig dig dig dig
dig dig. You know what. That's
21
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:38.000
about as valuable. That's about as
that's that number that daddy you just gave
22
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:40.879
me, uh huh, or that
that statement you gave me and you said
23
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:45.439
you're not I mean, that's your
final answer. Correct. That's the exact
24
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:51.040
same that what you said about Kyle
Tucker's postseason would be the equivalent of saying,
25
00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:55.319
yes, the team that scores the
most points or runs in a game
26
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.000
the time when yeah, yeah,
that's pretty good. You're riveting six o

29
00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:15.439
o'clock hour, I will Yeah,
you ain't playing no, not on a
30
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:19.479
Friday. Look, you look a
little what's the word, I mean,
31
00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:22.680
hat back. You look like you're
ready for you're going on your grind grind
32
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:29.080
today yeah, yeah, it's Friday, good weather. I love a little
33
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:31.919
fifty five degrees your rain, and
your ass will be so deep in the
34
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:35.120
sheets with your dogs and you get
home it won't need to be funny.
35
00:02:35.159 --> 00:02:38.599
I can't wait. Yeah on a
Friday, Come on now, you and
36
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:42.719
Mandy will be texting each other from
the sheets at your own plug cribs.
37
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:46.000
I mean, well, I'm probably
out working in the yard or something in
38
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:49.759
the rain. In the rain,
I'll probably walk up hill two miles to
39
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:52.479
get a dog gun, to get
something in the rain before I start working.
40
00:02:53.240 --> 00:02:55.560
When you were like in a third
grade, there is most uphill over
41
00:02:55.639 --> 00:03:04.319
in your area. No speed mump. Maybe maybe you no? I want
42
00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:07.560
my man, Dude, I laid
my winter ride down. Did you see
43
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:08.560
in my grass up and stuff?
Oh? Do you know me? I'm
44
00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:12.000
a fin I'm like, I'm like
that guy. Did you ever see the
45
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.120
movie Honey I Shrunk the Kids when
when he when uh Rick Moranis gets into
46
00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:19.759
grass and starts looking down the grass. Because that's how I am with blades
47
00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:23.639
of grass. Dude, you'll find
me out there like the golfer too.
48
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:25.639
I think it's Camilo Villegis. You
know the guy who gets down on the
49
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:30.000
ground and like when he's lighting up
his putt, right, that's what I
50
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:32.719
am with my grass. Dude,
you pop down in there and I'm like
51
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:38.000
tripping. You're probably you're probably the
guy that watches your yard guy. You're
52
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:42.360
you're landscaping guy leave and then you
go out there to check his work and
53
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:45.080
then you get your own mower out. I have the landscape guy to do
54
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:46.560
like some clean up and some weeds
and stuff, and I'll still pick him
55
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:51.560
during the week. I'm the guy
that he comes on Tuesday and does all
56
00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:53.639
that stuff. I'm a guy that
Tuesday after he leaves walk You're right,
57
00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:57.639
I go out and scouted out did
he pull this one from the putting green
58
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:00.439
where there's little grass that goes through, right, And then I go out.
59
00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:02.520
And then the two days later,
like tomorrow, well it's going to
60
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:08.400
rain, I guess. But normally
Saturday mornings I go back and reach I
61
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:12.159
mow what he mowed on Tuesday.
I go back and do it so it's
62
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:14.960
tight. And I'm actually going to
buying one of those rollers, you know
63
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:17.879
how they roil the rains and then
they and obviously I'm gonna get it punched.
64
00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:21.560
I got to punch my grassated.
Yeah, but those rollers. A
65
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:26.879
guy in my neighborhood had one of
his landscapers. I drove by and he's
66
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:30.439
doing what I'm saying. I am. You're gonna see ybody, what is
67
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:34.319
that clown doing. He's rolling his
yard front, backyard. So yeah,
68
00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:38.800
I am when it comes to that
blades of grass, dude, I'm serious.
69
00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:42.560
I am that that that guy every
all the time. And you're exactly
70
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:46.439
right, my mind. Landscaper who
does all the those details are. He'll
71
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:48.560
fix like a brick that may have
broke or something. Right, He's awesome.
72
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:53.759
And but I'm out there, dude, I'm trimming hedges. I'm mowing
73
00:04:53.879 --> 00:05:00.759
grass. Uh my own, Okay, I'm mowing grass. I'm blowing it.
74
00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:03.399
I might as well start paying myself. Yeah, but I'm a I'm
75
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:06.600
a whack job when it comes to
landscorp and landscape. I am. Well.
76
00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:09.879
I can tell you what the grass
in that game last night, the
77
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:15.120
Bears and the Panthers. That'll make
you if you're out Michaels, he's coming
78
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:16.680
back for another year, and thank
goodness for us, but that'll make you
79
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:20.680
want to retire from broadcasting having to
watch some of that stuff. It's bad
80
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:25.240
football. What is it about the
Thursday night games? Since Kirk Kurbstreet and
81
00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:28.439
Al Michaels have gotten that gig with
Amazon, these are some of the worst
82
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:30.600
games I've ever I've ever watched.
So it's just not good football. I
83
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:32.680
was gonna say, it's not that
the players aren't good, but the quality
84
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:35.199
football is not good. Oh,
it's not good. And look, I
85
00:05:35.399 --> 00:05:40.639
know there's been so much talk about
Bryce Young and c J. Stroud in
86
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:43.839
the comparisons and how c J.
Stroud is out playing Bryce Young quote unquote,
87
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:47.519
and that's that's and that's fact.
He he looks like that play that
88
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:51.000
I know people can't see it,
but like trying to force footballs into into
89
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:55.160
double coverage and things like that.
He has not looked good this season.
90
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:57.839
And you can't blame it on his
line. You can't blame it on anything.
91
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:00.680
Well, you can blame it on
the whole thing is what it is.
92
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:06.759
But he listen and truth, you
know, how rookie is supposed to
93
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:12.399
play like he's playing right, like
he's playing. He looks just like a
94
00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:15.680
rookie twenty one to thirty eight.
He's been sacked twenty nine times this year
95
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:18.160
he makes, he'll make some plays. You're like, damn, like he
96
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:20.519
did against the Texans. He made
a few plays. You say, Okay,
97
00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:24.519
I see it right, And then
you come back you say, he
98
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:28.439
made that play at Alabama, Well, the windows are a little bigger decisions.
99
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:31.240
I mean, hell, he was
now he had to single handedly carry
100
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:33.800
a team at times at Alabama,
where he played his ass off. Right,
101
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:36.759
I'm just telling you, I know
the guy's football meant if he can
102
00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:40.639
stay on the field and they build
around him. Here's what I don't think
103
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:44.759
about Bryce Young, And I've never
thought this when I say don't think here's
104
00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:48.480
what I think about Brys Young and
that I don't believe he's ever going to
105
00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:51.040
be the guy in the NFL that
loads the team up. You can name
106
00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:55.519
three when they're going to mahomes.
It doesn't matter injuries. If you need
107
00:06:55.600 --> 00:06:57.360
him to carry you for a month. It's like a hitter, right,
108
00:06:57.399 --> 00:06:59.639
you know those great hitters. You
say, what happened to the month of
109
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:03.000
July. Dude hit seventeen home runs
and drove in forty runs. That's how
110
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:05.519
we got through the month of July. All the players are important, but
111
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:09.680
that's how you got that guy loaded. Reggie Jackson used to do it.
112
00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:13.680
Jordon's done it here. You look
at and when PSA, oh, somebody
113
00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:16.439
on every team does it, it's
no superstars. Well remember when Yelich and
114
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:18.759
the Brewers were going good, he
had loaded him up and in Golt right,
115
00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:20.839
it happened on Arizona. You said, well, who did it?
116
00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:25.040
Not about seven or eight guys.
But when things are going right here postseason,
117
00:07:25.240 --> 00:07:29.560
the dude that hits left handed here, that Jordan Alvarez, that's called
118
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.439
carrying your team. Now, Unfortunately, when you don't get production from some
119
00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:38.399
others, that carrying him ends.
But with Bryce Young, I don't think
120
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:40.199
he's ever going to be the guy
who say, dude, go win us.
121
00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:43.000
For Aaron Rodgers, I need four
from you. You've got to give
122
00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:45.319
me four straight. We got to
go in a roll and we don't have
123
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:46.720
a run game and you have to
line's no good. You got to carry
124
00:07:46.759 --> 00:07:50.240
us. There are guys who can
do that. Lamar Jackson can still find
125
00:07:50.279 --> 00:07:54.759
a way. We Burrow knocking around, but even the best of Burrow when
126
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:58.160
he's getting hit hard to play from
your ass right. So for me,
127
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:03.720
I'm just trying to call people that
I'm not apologist for by Young Bryce Young
128
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:07.199
Ma ended up being an average player. But I think it's far too soon
129
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:09.759
for us to look at him on
this team that he's on and say,
130
00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:11.800
would the Texans be as good if
he is here? The answer is absolutely
131
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:16.319
not. And would the would the
Carolina Panthers be better? Yes, But
132
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:20.000
I can tell you this with what
I'm seeing, the Panthers wouldn't be one
133
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:24.120
hundred percent better if stij was there. They'd be better throwing the football,
134
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:26.199
right, they just would be.
He's a better player right now, five
135
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:30.240
years from now, who knows.
But I would caution people in Caroline anywhere
136
00:08:30.319 --> 00:08:33.519
up the guy's a bust already.
We got to slow down twenty one to
137
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:35.399
thirty eight. So if a rookie
comes out with one hundred and eighty five
138
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:37.440
yards, he said, I'd like
take more shots. But on that team
139
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:39.720
now, Frank Raich, if he
didn't pick it up, I don't know
140
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:43.000
how long that owner is going to
be patient doing. I know I was
141
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:46.720
James, I want mcdonna said it
too. Yeah, I was thinking about
142
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:48.720
it last night. So listeners and
the followers asked the question, Frank ain't
143
00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:50.799
going to get four years, okay? Let's just put it that. I
144
00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:52.600
know this is year one, but
he's going to have to pick up this
145
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:56.600
temple. But he'll get a haul
past year because of the rookie and all
146
00:08:56.639 --> 00:08:58.919
that stuff. And they're not very
good. But Brian, you make a
147
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:03.200
good point. It's Stroud. It
almost feels here's what it feels like that
148
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:07.039
Stroud is even a better NFL player
than he was a college player. And
149
00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:09.679
you look at the numbers, you
say, gaudy as hell. Now Bryce
150
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:15.360
is the guy that listened. He
was phenomenal at Alabama that two minute drive
151
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:18.200
against I mean, you watch him
all the time make plays, but on
152
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:20.519
that team, they were superior all
the time, right, and then he
153
00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:24.000
elevated him when they needed it.
I don't think he can take a bunch
154
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:28.320
of eight average offensive players and turn
them into a playoff team. Now you
155
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:31.600
give him eight good players and three
average players. Can I think at some
156
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:33.919
point C J. Stroud he may
be doing it. Now, could literally
157
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.120
carry you for a month because of
his ability to throw the football and do
158
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:41.759
those things at layering it the way
he does in decisions. So I'm not
159
00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:43.759
quitting on Bryce Young. I think
he can be a good player, but
160
00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:48.759
he went to the wrong team.
I mean, listen the whole thing of
161
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:52.120
rookies. Would you get vic first
bad team, new coach? I mean
162
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:56.320
at all points to dude, come
on, we're not We can't ask him
163
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:58.039
to go do what c J.
Stroud's doing because he's just not as good
164
00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:01.159
a thrower. But I think he's
gonna be a good player. I think
165
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:03.120
c J. Stroud's got a chance
to be a great one. Yeah,
166
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:05.440
and I by no means think,
right, you're gonna be more patient with
167
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:07.399
him, right, well, for
sure, but I just I watch.
168
00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:11.600
Maybe it's unfair to him because of
what we're seeing here in Houston with what
169
00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:15.519
CJ. Stroud is. I think
one thing that I'm tired of already is
170
00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:18.240
the comparison between c J. Stroud
and Bryce Shunk. But not only just
171
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:22.080
those two players, but the teams
people have over the last week. Because
172
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:26.039
of all the spotlight that CJ has
gotten, people are trying to say that
173
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:30.759
this Texans roster is like the Kansas
City Chiefs. Oh, of course he's
174
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:33.159
going to be successful. Like,
no, give the dude credit. He's
175
00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:37.039
on his fourth center. The line's
been beat up the entire season. Titus
176
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:41.759
Howard was out Laramie Tunts has been
banged up. He missed a couple of
177
00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:45.440
games, like he's doing things to
him right, Yet no Kenney Green,
178
00:10:45.679 --> 00:10:48.639
the dude, juice juice scrugs.
I are like all these guys on the
179
00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:54.039
front front line have been out or
moved around banged up. If you want
180
00:10:54.039 --> 00:10:58.519
to call all the so called experts
on it, go back and read after
181
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:03.240
the draft when everybody says years the
win to when Vegas set the odds for
182
00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:05.080
who the worst team in the league
would be Texans worth near the bottom of
183
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:09.440
all of them. And you know
what they always said, good new coach
184
00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:13.679
rosters not very good. Matter of
fact, they got improven so many who's
185
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:16.840
the number one receiver that are they
gonna? Are they physical enough? And
186
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:20.559
I mean, honestly, they all
of a sudden, now the roster's good.
187
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:24.759
You know why the roster's better.
They're teaching. But the quarterback on
188
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:28.399
offense is making the roster a lot
better with the way he's playing, right,
189
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:31.279
helps, So it goes hand in
hand. So you're you're exactly right.
190
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:33.879
And the truth is, dude,
look think about it. Clayton tune
191
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:37.159
gets the first start last week.
Yeah, looked awful. He'll be better.
192
00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:43.240
You take a look at Levis awesome, come down earth a little bit,
193
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:46.200
and I'm just it's gonna happen.
The great ones, just don't let
194
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:50.200
don't stay there for two or three
weeks. Stroud had his against Carolina.
195
00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:52.320
It was he didn't play bay,
He just played played like a rookie.
196
00:11:52.919 --> 00:11:54.799
Now you take a look, big
difference. We got to stop comparing them.
197
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:58.399
All the five year veterans who have
been in the league are dominating because
198
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:01.279
as rookies, I'm played once Allan
was average. I can go through the
199
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:03.960
whole list and tell you Lamar Jackson. They were talking about moving to him
200
00:12:03.960 --> 00:12:07.759
to another position. Yeah, right, well should he be playing another position?
201
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:09.879
Now? He's the MVP of the
league right now, so save it.
202
00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:11.960
We're gonna be young, is gonna
be okay. And c J.
203
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:16.440
Stroud's doing stuff that, quite frankly, you're not supposed to do as a
204
00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:18.519
three year veteran, let alone a
rookie. Right Yeah, And speaking of
205
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:22.679
c J. Stroud and Joe Burrow, that matchup this Sunday. Joe Burrow
206
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:26.320
spoke to the media yesterday had some
good things to say about c J.
207
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:28.799
Stroud. What did he say We'll
hear that audio discussed next right here on
208
00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:33.720
the Shawn Salisbury Show. There's a
lot happening and he's got a lot to
209
00:12:33.799 --> 00:13:01.440
say about it. Sean Salisbury continues
on seven nineteen, shouts, ups up,
210
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:07.000
gees soon back again? How couns? I bet that no sooner?
211
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:20.759
Shut up? Weary angle? What
kind of shoot you the way? I'm
212
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:26.440
a dangerous man with some money.
So minute pretty because I'm on the end
213
00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:30.240
there waking up. Welcome back to
the Shawn south Ray Show here on Sports
214
00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:33.320
Talk seven ninety Sean Bryan and Tripoli. Kyle Tucker for the Houston as was
215
00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:37.600
winning the Silver Slugger Award. You're
Houston Rockets hosting the New Orleans Pelicans tonight
216
00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:43.480
over at Toyota Center seven pm.
The tip off six o'clock launch pad right
217
00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:46.360
here on Sports Talk seven on your
home for Rockets basketball. The Texans playing
218
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:50.120
the Bengals this Sunday. It's a
noon kickoff over in Cincinnati. Joe Burrow
219
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:56.919
had some things to say about c
J. Stroud. What did Joe Burrow,
220
00:13:56.960 --> 00:13:58.919
the starting quarterback for the Bengals,
have to say? This is it
221
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:05.440
right here from Joe Burrow. Yeah, he's playing really well. It's it's
222
00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:09.039
always exciting when you got guys that
coming in to the league and play well.
223
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:11.799
I know CJ. I know kind
of guy he is. Doesn't surprise
224
00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:15.080
me that he's playing as well as
he is. You know he's going to
225
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:20.559
continue to work as hard as he
can to maintain that success. Nothing crazy,
226
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:26.039
but game recognized game. Yeah,
probably CJ play well, but just
227
00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:28.279
don't play well this weekend. Probably
play well enough to beat us. Yeah,
228
00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:33.559
take take a take a couple quarters
off so you don't keep them in
229
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:35.720
the game. And I have to
meeting Burrow and I have to play like
230
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:39.679
a machine today and a monster or
Sunday to beat your Texans. But I
231
00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:45.279
think there's respect there because I think
you said game recognized game. Great players
232
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:50.879
recognize at that position. Joe made
an impact quickly without before breakings leg and
233
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:56.799
CJ. Straud is doing the same
thing here. Would you watching him playing
234
00:14:56.879 --> 00:15:01.559
college and then through the entire draft
process and all the bs that we heard,
235
00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:03.559
did you think that he would play
this well? I don't think anybody
236
00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:07.879
did, And hell no I didn't. I thought. I told you I
237
00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:11.399
thought he'd be the starting quarterback when
the season opened. Yeah, you don't
238
00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:16.240
draft a guy second when the guy
in front of him is not a veteran
239
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:18.399
that won the job outright. You
know what I'm saying, who's young you'
240
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:22.639
you don't draft a guy second to
say sit and watch for four you want
241
00:15:22.639 --> 00:15:26.039
to play him, especially in this
situation, because they drafted him in truth,
242
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:28.879
because they thought he was a better
player and that they were better now
243
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:33.080
and he proved it. That's nothing. Davis Mills. I think Davis Mills
244
00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:35.200
is going to be in a legal
a long time. I do. But
245
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:39.000
sometimes you know, he may end
up being case Keenum. He may end
246
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:41.840
up being Geno Smith at some point, find a different venue. Boom,
247
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:46.000
here we go, and to stay
ready. So CJ No, come on,
248
00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:48.200
man, and anybody out there that
tells you, yep, I knew
249
00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:50.799
this success was coming. Unit of
success was coming. If you loved him
250
00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:56.440
in year three, this will anybody
says, you just go look at you
251
00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.879
talk about data. Rookie quarterbacks don't
do this fourteen and one. He's having
252
00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:04.360
the best rookie season of quarterbacks ever
had. Yeah. Protecting the ball and
253
00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:10.600
again this isn't sideways football. He
is pushing the ball down the field and
254
00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:15.639
taking shots and aggressive, and everybody
in the building knows one thing the Texans
255
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:18.080
got They have to throw it,
even when they try to shove it down
256
00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:22.039
your throat running it. It's not
their specialty. They got to throw it.
257
00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:23.159
Oh, who's his best receiver?
Well, right now, it's a
258
00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:26.639
rookie. Well, how's the coordinator, he's the experience, Now he's a
259
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:30.759
rookie. How's the ed coach?
O rookie. It's when you apply all
260
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:33.120
that and know where they were.
They were three and a half wins last
261
00:16:33.200 --> 00:16:37.879
year, three and a half wins
and here we are at four with a
262
00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:44.120
chance. I mean, and they've
beaten good teams. Just the simple strides
263
00:16:44.159 --> 00:16:48.399
alone early for the team have been
great. But you know this, We've
264
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:51.360
talked about it a million times.
If you can give me a trait,
265
00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:53.200
you come to me and say,
sean man, of all the things you
266
00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:56.399
need for a guy on the team, we talked the stuff that's obviously leadership,
267
00:16:57.120 --> 00:17:00.080
accuracy, that, But then there's
this one and I don't know what
268
00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:03.480
it is. I don't know how
guys do it. Maybe it's just they
269
00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:07.799
You get to believe in them.
They've set a standard to training and then
270
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:08.359
you watch them. They just do
it, and you're like, Okay,
271
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:11.400
that's gonna happen all the time,
so we got to follow suit. But
272
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:17.079
when people say it's impossible to do
now, it isn't raise everybody else's game
273
00:17:17.519 --> 00:17:19.400
to where I I don't care if
you feel guilty that you're not playing well,
274
00:17:19.640 --> 00:17:22.920
if you feel like you want you
want to be competitive because you want
275
00:17:22.920 --> 00:17:25.720
to keep up with him, If
he sets the standard and everybody's watching,
276
00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:29.839
I don't care what the reason is. There are different guys. Come on
277
00:17:29.960 --> 00:17:34.079
now, you tell me in Baltimore, is Lamar Jackson not elevated to play
278
00:17:34.119 --> 00:17:37.519
that team? Yeah, when he's
on the field, don't it's different,
279
00:17:37.640 --> 00:17:41.160
right? He is healthy in playing
he makes that team very dangerous. Look
280
00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:44.720
what Matt Stafford did the Rams,
all the good players, they brought him
281
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:48.000
in in a minute, they won
a Super Bowl. Tell me that right
282
00:17:48.039 --> 00:17:52.079
now. CJ. Stroud doesn't elevate
the play Right now, Mahomes walks in
283
00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:55.720
the building, the play immediately goes
up. Joe Burrow walks in the building,
284
00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:57.240
the play im mediate goes it.
Doesn't mean the other guys aren't important,
285
00:17:57.680 --> 00:18:02.319
But if that guy's not showing you
the way, forget it and you
286
00:18:02.400 --> 00:18:03.720
know what, it's not just showing, it's when things are going bad that
287
00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:07.319
they can find a way to do
it. I just am so big on
288
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:11.160
maximizing what's in the building. And
if your right guard's usually playing like a
289
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:12.920
six and a half because he's a
backup, and all of a sudden,
290
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:18.680
you say, three straight games he's
played like an eight. The man the
291
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:21.160
makeup, if it makes him look
better, let's all wear it right,
292
00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:23.279
don't have a problem with him.
And then it turns it. Then they
293
00:18:23.400 --> 00:18:29.480
start to believe in themselves and say, you know what my weaknesses were because
294
00:18:29.480 --> 00:18:32.640
I limited myself. That dude,
I know. And you think about what
295
00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:34.319
everybody was saying about Stroud when he
came in. It had been easy to
296
00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:37.680
buy into it your damn self,
and he didn't. So for me,
297
00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:41.680
I think it's a hell of a
watch. And there's not a soul alive
298
00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:45.440
other than maybe him that thought he
was going to play like this, because
299
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:48.319
there's no data that says rookies are
supposed to at that position. Moments of
300
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:55.240
it, moments of it, but
not sustained nine eight games in and now
301
00:18:55.359 --> 00:18:57.400
going in nine and he's played like
a guy who, in truth, has
302
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:00.839
been the league a half a dozen
years, had success doing it. Yeah,
303
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:03.839
you ain't. You ain't gonna tell
me there's anything fake about this.
304
00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:07.319
I think another crazy thing that I've
seen from some h what do you call
305
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:11.839
them pundits? If you will.
Oh, it's just you know, this
306
00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:15.039
is a couple of weeks in c
J. Stroud. He'll come back down
307
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:17.400
to earth. What do you did? We're halfway through the damn season.
308
00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:19.519
He'll come down to earth for a
game he did against Carolina. We saw
309
00:19:19.559 --> 00:19:22.720
it, yep, look to average
rookie. Let me ask you another thing
310
00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:26.079
about guys you coach or when you
are watching football or basketball or baseball,
311
00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:33.759
do you want the guy who gives
you spectacular every ten games or bad wants
312
00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:37.960
every ten games and then give you
nine really good games or spectacular or solid
313
00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:41.359
games. You want that guy?
Right? You expect guys to give me
314
00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:44.400
eight or nine good games and then
have a bad game. Right, That's
315
00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:47.200
just that's just how it goes.
And in truth, you probably expect that
316
00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:49.400
at ten games guys to have seven
good, one average, too bad.
317
00:19:49.519 --> 00:19:52.039
Yes, it's just I mean,
you know how it is based on what
318
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:56.599
where the bar is for The sports
are hard, they are especially at the
319
00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:59.839
highest level. In truth, the
guy's had one game that I I mean,
320
00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:03.079
they've lost four times, but where
you look at him and say that
321
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:06.319
that wasn't you Because when he first
started, dude, he's the first two
322
00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:08.240
games, he's getting hit and all
of a sudden they switch it around and
323
00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:11.559
he still hangs in there. But
you think about what all he went through
324
00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:15.599
mentally and having to handle this,
all the questions going in tells me he's
325
00:20:15.640 --> 00:20:19.799
not thin skinned, which I love, but through all this and taking care
326
00:20:19.839 --> 00:20:26.279
of it. The thing about is
after the Carolina game, the mere mortal
327
00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:29.839
would have come back and an average
player would have come back and probably played
328
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:33.119
average but made some plays. But
didn't. He came back and threw a
329
00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:37.599
party on you and put that the
rest. Now right, we're talking about
330
00:20:37.640 --> 00:20:40.400
this, Carroll, Okay, let's
fix this right now. Same thing with
331
00:20:40.440 --> 00:20:42.799
Bobby, there is no question about
it because he faced tons of his worst
332
00:20:42.839 --> 00:20:45.079
game of the year in that game
too, right, and and you know
333
00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:48.839
what, it ain't gonna be the
last time those two walk off the field
334
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:52.200
and say, damn, we gotta
better. Yeah, we sucked, right,
335
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:55.880
But I can I can assure you
that number seven is gonna have more
336
00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:57.200
of those when you walk off the
field and say, we got a good
337
00:20:57.200 --> 00:21:00.319
player, and you know it may
happen this weekend. I don't think he'll
338
00:21:00.960 --> 00:21:04.000
I don't think he'll urinate down his
leg. I think he's up for the
339
00:21:04.039 --> 00:21:07.400
occasion. And I actually think he's
going to relish this opportunity to play against
340
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:11.680
Cincinnati and Burle Because who doesn't want
to beat what many consider the best at
341
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:15.960
his position, if not first,
maybe not third in the league. Who
342
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:18.960
doesn't want to waltz into his building
and beat him in his own home because
343
00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:21.480
Burl's been used to doing that to
others. It's gonna be a hell of
344
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:22.400
a throwing matchup. I can't wait
to see it. Yeah, and I
345
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:26.319
think the Texans are seven point dogs. I might throw a little throw a
346
00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:29.680
couple of bills on that and never
know. Yeah, I wonder where that
347
00:21:29.799 --> 00:21:32.480
wonder where the sharp money is going
to go in the next two days.
348
00:21:32.519 --> 00:21:36.039
If it's going to start working its
way, well, you'll know tomorrow morning
349
00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:41.079
which way it's headed. If you
start to see, you know, closer
350
00:21:41.119 --> 00:21:44.640
to game time, whatever way the
line goes, you might get another.
351
00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:47.680
If it starts to drop, you
dropped it's already dropped to half a point.
352
00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:48.519
I mean it's down to six and
a half, and I'm sure that's
353
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:52.920
probably with uh is it Boyder Higgins? One of those is going to be
354
00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:56.200
out this way. So now you're
keeping an eye on it. If you
355
00:21:56.319 --> 00:21:59.599
love the Texans, you better jump
on it. Because if you love the
356
00:21:59.640 --> 00:22:03.400
Texan at six and a half then
or you loved them at seven, you
357
00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:06.920
better jump on early because who knows, maybe it drops another half point.
358
00:22:06.920 --> 00:22:10.400
You don't know, but you'll get
a little idea where that money's moving.
359
00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:14.880
But it's easy on the road coming
off a big game. You're playing Cincinnati,
360
00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:18.759
the Burrows hot, you just had
a huge game. Maybe can you
361
00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:21.039
hand And I think a lot of
us are wondering, okay, can you
362
00:22:21.079 --> 00:22:22.680
handle the success you had last week? Because if you play off the success
363
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:26.720
you had last week and are thinking
about that, you won't win this smack
364
00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:29.319
That's exactly right. You got to
get over that is equally as quick as
365
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:32.039
you do a loss like you did
against Carolina, get over it and come
366
00:22:32.119 --> 00:22:36.319
play. So I would I would
think that the fans, the people who
367
00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:38.480
are were the money right now are
like, oh, this is what sets
368
00:22:38.519 --> 00:22:42.599
up for Cincinnati asshappon, right,
but when the sharp money comes in,
369
00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:47.000
we'll get an idea of that they
know something we don't. That's why they
370
00:22:47.079 --> 00:22:51.359
keep building air conditioned casinos and hotels
in Vegas. Right, So we'll see.
371
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:56.799
Yeah, going into this week,
obviously all the spotlight on c J
372
00:22:56.880 --> 00:23:00.880
Sherrawl, Nick Asario was asked about
what it looked like, Uh, when
373
00:23:00.079 --> 00:23:03.359
scouting c J Stroud. We got
the audio. What did the GM say
374
00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:06.799
when they were looking at c J
Stroud coming out of Ohio State. That's
375
00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:12.720
next on Sports Fox seven ninety.
Putting the logic in illogical, former prowl
376
00:23:14.119 --> 00:23:33.200
John Salisbury continues to break it down
one seven ninety. Huh, yeah,
377
00:23:34.359 --> 00:23:41.640
this was your saying. We did
it all in most Brokevin example one day
378
00:23:41.559 --> 00:23:48.599
A Jackson, Are you ready?
I know you fel it for you near
379
00:23:48.680 --> 00:23:53.119
it, you fit it again?
Want to do something right, but we
380
00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:56.960
could do something better. You're listening
to the Shawn Salisbury Show here on Sports
381
00:23:57.000 --> 00:24:00.599
Talk seven ninety, Sean Bryn and
Tripp League Kyle Tucker wins the Silver Slugger
382
00:24:00.599 --> 00:24:04.319
Award. Rockets host and the New
Orleans Pelicans tonight at Toyota Center seven pm.
383
00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:08.960
Tip off six o'clock. The launch
pad starts right here on seven niney
384
00:24:10.000 --> 00:24:12.839
your home four Rockets basketball Talking Texans. They take on the Bengals this Sunday.
385
00:24:14.200 --> 00:24:21.319
It's a noon kickoff. Nick Serio
asked yesterday what it was like scouting
386
00:24:21.960 --> 00:24:23.759
CJ. Stroud, and this is
what the GM and the Texans had to
387
00:24:23.880 --> 00:24:27.079
say. I want to say we
had I don't know, however many.
388
00:24:27.119 --> 00:24:32.119
It was a handful of quarterbacks in
our building as a part of our it's
389
00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:34.799
part of our process, and then
the zoom calls. So you're just trying
390
00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:38.319
to accumulate as much information as possible
as many and give them different angles.
391
00:24:38.359 --> 00:24:42.920
I think the most important thing is
with any player is they just have to
392
00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:47.400
be who they are. So whatever
their personality is, you just want to
393
00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:51.640
see a consistency at every checkpoint.
We have a pretty extensive process from the
394
00:24:51.720 --> 00:24:53.799
time that they walk in the building
to they meet with the entire group.
395
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:57.240
It's a pretty rigorous day, you
know. Specific to CJ. I mean,
396
00:24:57.319 --> 00:25:00.839
I think his personality, you you
feel his presence when you're in the
397
00:25:00.920 --> 00:25:06.000
room with them. There's a confidence, there's a competitiveness, there's an edge
398
00:25:06.039 --> 00:25:07.599
in a good way of what you
want and he has. I would say
399
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:11.599
he's it's that balance of confidence in
humility, like you believe in yourself,
400
00:25:12.039 --> 00:25:15.920
but you also have to make sure
that there are times when you take a
401
00:25:15.960 --> 00:25:19.319
step back and you know, you
put your ego aside. So I'd say
402
00:25:19.359 --> 00:25:22.920
by the time we got to April, we kind of had an idea and
403
00:25:23.000 --> 00:25:27.160
then really the draft is about positioning. So really those last couple of weeks
404
00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:30.480
in April, you're having dialogue,
you're looking at your options, you're getting
405
00:25:30.480 --> 00:25:36.880
more. A lot of good stuff
there from GM Nick Cassario. But I
406
00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:38.839
think the biggest takeaway for me,
Sean, and I'll get your thoughts on
407
00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:44.240
it, is his demeanor. I
guess he commands a room. There's presence
408
00:25:44.319 --> 00:25:49.000
there, but there's also a good
balance of humility and confidence. Yeah,
409
00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:55.240
and it is a slippery slope fine
in both because you know the truth and
410
00:25:55.359 --> 00:25:57.440
it's such a we hear it all
the time. Quarterback gets too much credit
411
00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:00.279
and too much blame, blah blah, and that's obvious the fact. But
412
00:26:02.039 --> 00:26:03.799
I like a guy who can be
a little self deprecating. I like a
413
00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:07.359
guy who can win one things,
you know, to me, winning games
414
00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:11.119
when you're not playing your best is
always a good trait too. Now,
415
00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:12.359
last week at all Hit, he
was playing great football. They won a
416
00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:15.440
game. It's nice. But when
you can find a way too, they'll
417
00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:18.400
come a time. It may be
Sunday when you've got to win a game,
418
00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:22.160
when everything's not really going your way, you got to fight. You
419
00:26:22.240 --> 00:26:25.599
know, at some point time he's
gonna have to fight through two picks that
420
00:26:25.680 --> 00:26:27.640
he threw right and see if you
can still pull that out. And I
421
00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:32.279
think he's proving that he's got that
demeanor that Nick Casseio and you had mentioned
422
00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:37.599
that, And it's a hard thing
to do to keep your confidence even when
423
00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:42.359
you're questioning yourself, not letting others
see it. So they say, and
424
00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:45.319
it doesn't matter what's going on,
this dude, This dude's got us under
425
00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:48.920
control regardless, because well, everybody
else is chaotic. You can't be.
426
00:26:49.200 --> 00:26:52.559
And I think that's part of what
Nick Cassia's talking about, is the ability
427
00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:55.799
to know when to joke around and
laugh and say the right thing, and
428
00:26:55.839 --> 00:26:57.680
then the ability to be humble and
just keep your mouth closed and just lead
429
00:26:57.759 --> 00:27:02.440
and go do your thing. Having
not been around him, but the early
430
00:27:02.519 --> 00:27:06.640
returns are the guy seems to have
the game that part of the game,
431
00:27:06.759 --> 00:27:10.599
I don't want to say whipped,
meaning he's arrived, but he knows what
432
00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:12.680
the road looks like to get to
where he wants to go, and he's
433
00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:15.720
staying on it, which is cool. Excuse me? What you know?
434
00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:18.960
We keep talking about some of these
rookies, and especially at the quarterback position.
435
00:27:19.440 --> 00:27:22.400
Something that I came across when I
was doing my prep was back in
436
00:27:22.799 --> 00:27:29.200
Let's see this was let me make
sure May eighth NFL game day. The
437
00:27:29.559 --> 00:27:33.319
Twitter account tweeted out a graphic that
says, which rookie do you think got
438
00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:37.359
drafted into the best situation? And
they list one through ten? Do you
439
00:27:37.400 --> 00:27:41.559
think CJ. Stroud was one at
any point on this list? Now say
440
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:47.400
that question again, it was which
rookie rookie? Okay, do you think
441
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:52.759
got drafted into the best situation?
There's a top ten list by Mark Ross?
442
00:27:52.200 --> 00:27:56.319
Okay, Okay, do we is
this his? In his order?
443
00:27:56.640 --> 00:28:00.279
Yeah? So where do I think
he had c J. Stroud drafted into
444
00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:03.000
it? One through ten? Yeah? What? What? What's the criteria?
445
00:28:03.119 --> 00:28:07.079
Is it? Like all rookies like, uh, okay, here,
446
00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:08.839
like like you went to a place
you're going to play right away in the
447
00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:14.799
in the uh SO top ten rookies
in the best situations to succeed in year
448
00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:18.440
one and beyond. And this was
written today, yesterday, this was in
449
00:28:18.559 --> 00:28:19.559
May. Oh. Back in May. I was going to say, well,
450
00:28:19.960 --> 00:28:25.079
all right, so this is post
draft, correct, I he wouldn't.
451
00:28:25.519 --> 00:28:29.279
The only reason he'd have had Stroud
in the top ten is Demico Ryans
452
00:28:29.440 --> 00:28:30.759
and the fact that he could start
right away, So you didn't even have
453
00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:33.559
CJ s. That's what I was
gonna say. That was the only read
454
00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:34.799
I would have said that in May. And there's no way that goes back
455
00:28:34.799 --> 00:28:37.039
to what we were saying. How
people said, well they're on a bad
456
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.200
team, got no shot, and
we're not even sure he can play,
457
00:28:40.359 --> 00:28:44.559
right, That's what That's what the
national talk was, which was stupid because
458
00:28:44.680 --> 00:28:47.480
everywhere he's been he's stolen the ball. So with that, I would say,
459
00:28:47.559 --> 00:28:49.599
and it's all different positions right,
correct, Hey Bryce can't be number
460
00:28:49.599 --> 00:28:53.559
one young? I mean sorry,
he's one. Well Carolina that he missed
461
00:28:53.559 --> 00:28:56.440
the boat on that one. Now
now two years from now maybe, but
462
00:28:56.480 --> 00:29:00.519
as far as impactful rookies, right
now, I would say Bryce is thinking
463
00:29:02.480 --> 00:29:07.039
I'd rather go third how do you
not have so he has Jalen Carter three
464
00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:10.079
just from that team alone. How
do you I would have put him first.
465
00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:12.039
How do you not have him number
one? Why think about it after
466
00:29:12.079 --> 00:29:15.160
the draft once he was clear everything
was okay and he got drafted in the
467
00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:18.920
first round, he went to a
team that's got a wealth of I mean,
468
00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:22.799
they got an embarrassment of riches,
and he's on a team with a
469
00:29:22.839 --> 00:29:26.000
couple of his buddies. He got
to go where people were questioning him.
470
00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:27.160
And now that you know he's going
to start, many thought he was the
471
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:32.680
best player in the draft going in. That's clearly that going in. And
472
00:29:32.799 --> 00:29:34.400
we even said here, remember we
talked about it, say, if you
473
00:29:34.559 --> 00:29:38.799
know that nothing's happening off the field, the talent's bigger than the talent's bigger
474
00:29:38.839 --> 00:29:44.400
than this headache it appears. And
Philadelphia thought the same. Howie Roseman's you
475
00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:47.480
can name him executive here, like
I said, in Philadelphia's front office every
476
00:29:47.559 --> 00:29:51.039
year the last three years. But
he got his buddies in there and Jalen
477
00:29:51.119 --> 00:29:52.799
Carter. That is now, I
know, after the fact. But if
478
00:29:52.799 --> 00:29:56.519
you just said he has Jalen Carter
a number one in May, great team
479
00:29:57.519 --> 00:30:02.759
Super Bowl favorite on a play goes
to a defense where he doesn't have to
480
00:30:02.799 --> 00:30:04.440
be the only guy you go in
there, he's one of the guys.
481
00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:07.039
And then to be going back for
you can't get doubled all the time,
482
00:30:07.079 --> 00:30:11.599
and you're an enormous talent coming from
a national title team, there is no
483
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:15.799
question that guy's usually reserved for the
first pick of the draft and fortunately for
484
00:30:15.920 --> 00:30:19.079
Philly to be up where they were
because of you know, trades and what
485
00:30:19.160 --> 00:30:22.200
they got. What was it that
wasn't that couldn't have been the Colts pick?
486
00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:26.000
What pick was that that Philly got
Jalen Carter? Why was it a
487
00:30:26.160 --> 00:30:30.400
trade somewhere? Was it because they
gave up? They got AJ Brown?
488
00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:34.599
I can't even remember getting him high
enough to where the team that went to
489
00:30:34.680 --> 00:30:37.839
the Super you get my point.
I don't know. I don't know where
490
00:30:37.839 --> 00:30:40.759
that pick was. Who it was
from? Was that the Saints? So
491
00:30:41.000 --> 00:30:42.920
Jalen Carter? He was number nine
overall? Is that from the New Orleans
492
00:30:42.960 --> 00:30:48.400
Saints? Let's see that pick for
some reason that sits out come? On?
493
00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:51.359
Man, you got that embarrassment of
riches and you get what may be
494
00:30:51.559 --> 00:30:53.319
still c J. Stroud and him
right now you start to think, are
495
00:30:53.359 --> 00:30:57.200
the two best players from that draft
right now? Defensively and offensively the way
496
00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:00.920
they're playing with I think that the
guy we got here, Will Anders is
497
00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:03.839
gonna prove to be one of those
guys too. But you can make the
498
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:06.640
argument for Jalen Carter. Now I
think it was from New Orleans. I
499
00:31:06.759 --> 00:31:08.599
do. Now I may be way
off, but my gut tells me it's
500
00:31:08.599 --> 00:31:12.519
from New Orleans. So regardless of
who it's from, they landed a gold
501
00:31:12.559 --> 00:31:15.599
mine and him in the fact that
eight of the team's passed time, that's
502
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:18.920
clearly the best situation to go to
and Stroud's turning this into one. If
503
00:31:18.920 --> 00:31:21.559
they had to redo it, Strouds
would be near the top of that list
504
00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:25.920
too. So let's see the Colts, not not the Calls. I'm sorry,
505
00:31:27.119 --> 00:31:34.960
Philly. Let's see training up for
the sixth round. Hmm. He
506
00:31:36.039 --> 00:31:38.279
goes trade with Texans. Now this
is all I have the double check.
507
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:44.079
But it was yeah, you're right, so it was from New Orleans Saints,
508
00:31:44.240 --> 00:31:47.079
right, it was, yeah,
from the Saints, who got it
509
00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:49.279
from the Bears. There you go, yeah, yeah, okay, So
510
00:31:49.400 --> 00:31:53.119
they for the for a round three. They did some things with the Texans.
511
00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:56.960
That's where I was getting confused.
Actually the three different times sixth round
512
00:31:57.039 --> 00:32:00.200
pick from the Texans, fourth round
pick from the Texans, third round pick
513
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:05.559
from the Texans for the Eagles,
and that's how they got Jalen Carter up
514
00:32:05.640 --> 00:32:08.799
way at number nine overall. So
yeah, I think it's funny looking at
515
00:32:08.839 --> 00:32:13.759
this list. Looking back at this
was Bryce Young number one, Jackson Smith
516
00:32:13.839 --> 00:32:15.480
and n jig But number two,
Jalen Carter, number three, camp Smith
517
00:32:15.559 --> 00:32:21.240
number four, Dalton Kin kid five, Joey Porter, Junior Hendon Hooker,
518
00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:25.160
Jordan Addison, Luke Musgrave, and
Devin Witherspoon. Those were all the top
519
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:29.599
ten quote unquote top ten rookies in
the best situation to succeed. Where's Hennon
520
00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:31.440
Hooker? Yeah, he's with the
Lions, that's right, Okay, Yeah,
521
00:32:31.559 --> 00:32:35.440
I mean he's got if something happen
to golf and he was ever on
522
00:32:35.480 --> 00:32:37.200
the field or in the next couple
of years, that's a good offensive roster.
523
00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:43.039
Yeah yeah. CJ. Stroud not
on this list, So tough scene
524
00:32:43.079 --> 00:32:45.920
for all the people that you know, try to say that he was drafted
525
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:51.640
onto a really good roster after you
see him succeed for a little bit which
526
00:32:51.640 --> 00:32:57.880
is absolutely ridiculous. All Right,
Dan Orlovsky, NFL media member and analysts
527
00:32:57.960 --> 00:33:00.279
obviously for ESPN, he had some
things to say about CJ. Shroud heading
528
00:33:00.279 --> 00:33:02.519
into the matchup against Joe Burrow and
the Bengals. What did he say?
529
00:33:02.559 --> 00:33:06.759

going on with my mouse over here.
552
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:15.159
Let's go to Adrian Adrian, good
morning, Hey, what's going on?
553
00:35:16.559 --> 00:35:21.840
I was clicking across YouTube yesterday and
I went to my texts in site and
554
00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:24.440
there was an interview they had with
one of the CBS's hosts, and he
555
00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:30.760
talked about CJ. And I just
listened, and he went through why he
556
00:35:30.000 --> 00:35:37.760
understands the NFL field and the players
so much now is because the first thing
557
00:35:37.880 --> 00:35:43.199
he did was get a hold of
Davis Mills and Case Keenum. And he
558
00:35:43.280 --> 00:35:46.559
says, him and Case are so
tight that in the film room they'll show
559
00:35:46.599 --> 00:35:52.440
a play that they're about the institute, and he said, Cj'll look at
560
00:35:52.559 --> 00:35:57.320
him and he'll stop, you know, Case will stop the film study and
561
00:35:57.400 --> 00:36:00.840
be like, hey, can we
break this down more? How about we
562
00:36:00.960 --> 00:36:05.119
try this this way? How about
we institute it that way, and then
563
00:36:05.159 --> 00:36:08.159
they'll come out with the play.
And that's how he understands the defense and
564
00:36:08.239 --> 00:36:12.559
what they're doing to him so much
in film study. So I wanted to,
565
00:36:12.679 --> 00:36:15.199
you know, Sean will speak to
this better on how the veteran and
566
00:36:15.320 --> 00:36:21.000
the rookie have that much of a
connection. And he said, every Friday,
567
00:36:22.320 --> 00:36:27.199
Case and his wife, Davis and
his old lady and CJ go to
568
00:36:27.320 --> 00:36:31.159
dinner and talk about the week coming
up with football. Have a good weekend,
569
00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:36.880
fellas. Thank you in Texas.
I got your minus seven. Appreciate
570
00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:45.119
Adrian. I like quarterback rooms that
are competitive yet complimentary. I can't imagine
571
00:36:45.599 --> 00:36:52.239
I'm thinking about the course of my
career. I can't fathom being in a
572
00:36:52.320 --> 00:36:55.159
room now if you're not in there. First of all, your job is
573
00:36:55.199 --> 00:36:59.599
to make the room better, and
in the process, by your competing,
574
00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:01.000
po to make the guy in front
of you better. And then when you're
575
00:37:01.039 --> 00:37:05.320
not competing, your job is to
make that guy successful, help him anyway
576
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:07.079
you can on the sideline. And
if you're not that guy, then you
577
00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:10.960
probably shouldn't be in a team atmosphere. That doesn't mean you don't want to
578
00:37:10.960 --> 00:37:15.840
play. But by Case doing that
and stopping the case has been a league
579
00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:20.039
long enough in Case realize at this
point in his career he's not somebody's franchise
580
00:37:20.119 --> 00:37:22.960
quarterback, but he is a guy
that can help a franchise quarterback and help
581
00:37:23.000 --> 00:37:28.119
a franchise and he's had one hell
of a run. And I imagine most
582
00:37:28.159 --> 00:37:30.000
didn't think this was going to happen. I mean put through for a lot
583
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:32.320
of yards when he left University Houston. But now look at him, and
584
00:37:32.440 --> 00:37:37.119
he's smart. And one or two
thoughts in a meeting room stop down,
585
00:37:37.519 --> 00:37:40.880
teach and if the coach is expected, teach, And that doesn't mean you
586
00:37:40.960 --> 00:37:43.559
have to search out the guy.
Like when we hear guy said, well,
587
00:37:43.599 --> 00:37:45.119
I'm not here to train the other
guy. Some guys just had that
588
00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:50.440
mentality. I always say, the
young guy's job is to go and engage
589
00:37:50.440 --> 00:37:52.119
with the older fellas, the veterans, to get to pick their brain.
590
00:37:52.199 --> 00:37:57.079
And that's a competitive room. So
and I do like going out dinner and
591
00:37:57.199 --> 00:38:00.639
talking and laughing. It's great to
have an awesome competitive relations but root for
592
00:38:00.719 --> 00:38:05.039
your buddy, root for success,
and and I just I love that.
593
00:38:05.159 --> 00:38:07.480
And I'm thinking, man, I
had it in Minnesota, Great Room,
594
00:38:08.159 --> 00:38:12.880
and when I started in Seattle with
Dave Craig and Gail Gilbert, Great Room
595
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:15.800
Minnesota, Wade Wilson, God rest
his soul, Rich Gannon, Brad Johnson
596
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:19.559
when he came in, when Warren
came in, then Jim McMahon came in.
597
00:38:19.639 --> 00:38:22.639
I mean, all those guys came
and all those years I was there,
598
00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:27.400
the room was never disrupted by somebody
being just an ass clown, right
599
00:38:27.960 --> 00:38:31.000
competitive and getting after it and joking, but enhancing. And I love that
600
00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:35.480
they're doing that because as good as
C. J. Stroud plays, he
601
00:38:35.639 --> 00:38:37.559
still needs his case Keingdom seeing a
lot more football than he is. So
602
00:38:37.639 --> 00:38:42.599
guys like that need to assist any
way they can when especially when the young
603
00:38:42.639 --> 00:38:45.440
guy engages with it. So when
you know you talk about a quarterback room
604
00:38:45.800 --> 00:38:51.760
and young guys going up to the
older guys, older quarterbacks things and so
605
00:38:51.880 --> 00:38:57.880
forth and so on, and then
you have KD Houston, KTVZHD two Houston,

Texans and Bengals this Sunday. It's
a noon kickoff. All the talk this
618
00:40:09.039 --> 00:40:14.159
week about c J. Stroud in
that phenomenal game last Sunday. All now
619
00:40:14.199 --> 00:40:17.239
he's headed up to Cincinnati with the
Texans. They're gonna take on these Bengals
620
00:40:19.320 --> 00:40:24.679
who have been playing really well after
a slow start. We know what Joe
621
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:30.239
Burrows about. We know T Higgins, Jamar Chase, Taj Boyd. They've
622
00:40:30.280 --> 00:40:34.159
got some good, dynamic wide receivers. It looks like T Higgins is going
623
00:40:34.199 --> 00:40:40.280
to be out for the Bengals.
Jamar Chase limited a practice gloud to see
624
00:40:40.320 --> 00:40:45.559
if he plays. I'm assuming he
will. Excuse me, Tyler Boyd,
625
00:40:45.639 --> 00:40:49.360
not Taj boy Taj boy was a
quarterback at Clemson yes back in the day.
626
00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:52.559
Tyler Boyd, they've got good wide
receivers. We talked about that yesterday.
627
00:40:52.920 --> 00:40:58.079
I want to know what you think
about the running game for the Houston
628
00:40:58.159 --> 00:41:02.519
Texans. Pay me or all your
people talking to you, I'm talking to
629
00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:10.960
you. Well, well, I
I guess for me, I got to
630
00:41:12.000 --> 00:41:15.960
find out if they can defend it, and we haven't been very good at
631
00:41:16.000 --> 00:41:23.280
it here. I would think that
you have to be careful about wanting to
632
00:41:23.400 --> 00:41:30.559
shorten the game to limit burrows possessions. I mentioned yesterday, you've got to
633
00:41:30.599 --> 00:41:34.199
be careful that you don't get conservative, because well, we've got to protect
634
00:41:34.239 --> 00:41:37.639
the ball. We don't want Joe
to have it. The problem is if
635
00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:40.119
you go three and out, Joe
has it, and I know and here's
636
00:41:40.159 --> 00:41:43.639
a and I don't think it'll happen
to Bobby Slope. But here's what could
637
00:41:43.639 --> 00:41:47.599
happen to all of us is Stroud's
played so well it can get to the
638
00:41:47.960 --> 00:41:52.559
it's okay at third and seven cee
jail bails outn and third and sevens.
639
00:41:52.800 --> 00:41:57.239
It's hard to sustain a lot of
success week in and week out. You're
640
00:41:57.280 --> 00:42:00.719
playing the Cincinnati Bengals, who are
really good, and but there can be
641
00:42:00.840 --> 00:42:06.920
a sense of let's hold this ball
so we can get out of here without
642
00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:10.000
having to go. I would play
it as if I'm spotted him fourteen points.
643
00:42:10.840 --> 00:42:15.280
I would I would go in,
we're down fourteen and nothing. That
644
00:42:15.440 --> 00:42:20.119
does now fourteen and enough. And
the reason I say fourteen is because if
645
00:42:20.159 --> 00:42:23.559
it was thirty five to nothing,
I gotta throw every down. If it's
646
00:42:23.599 --> 00:42:29.320
fourteen enoughing, I don't I can
establish a run by throwing the football and
647
00:42:29.519 --> 00:42:32.360
if all of a sudden through that, because what do you think Cincinnati's doing.
648
00:42:32.400 --> 00:42:36.039
I know every defensive coordinator says,
we got to stop the run.
649
00:42:36.840 --> 00:42:37.800
Well, there are certain teams you're
going in. We got to stop that
650
00:42:37.880 --> 00:42:40.840
quarterback, and that's Kansas City.
It's the guy here. You have to
651
00:42:40.880 --> 00:42:45.480
stop the running the quarterback because if
all of a sudden, the running game
652
00:42:45.559 --> 00:42:47.480
hits a few, and then they're
going to say, okay, we got
653
00:42:49.039 --> 00:42:51.880
to you know, change a little
bit, change up defense. But the
654
00:42:52.000 --> 00:42:54.000
right now, if you're the Cincinnati
Bengals defense, you cannot let ce J
655
00:42:54.159 --> 00:42:58.400
Stroud have a few, you know, throw a party on you and deliver
656
00:42:59.000 --> 00:43:01.679
a birthday party hat. So yeah, as far as the run game goes,
657
00:43:01.840 --> 00:43:05.159
Brian, I don't think you go
into this game saying we can't run
658
00:43:05.199 --> 00:43:07.880
it. I think you go in
this game saying, we want to run
659
00:43:07.920 --> 00:43:09.760
it, but we're going to do
what it takes. If they're playing off
660
00:43:09.840 --> 00:43:13.800
coverage in single high safety, we'll
throw hitches and slants and curls. Tell
661
00:43:13.840 --> 00:43:16.159
the cows come home. So I
still think you can establish a run without
662
00:43:16.800 --> 00:43:21.079
sticking a square peg in a round
hole. Yeah, we always think established
663
00:43:21.159 --> 00:43:23.440
run means run on first down.
No established run means don't abandon it.
664
00:43:23.599 --> 00:43:28.639
And and if it's there, Hell, it would be great if you came
665
00:43:28.679 --> 00:43:30.840
out of this game say we threw
twenty five times, ran forty five,
666
00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:34.840
because that'll tell you that you ran
for two hundred plus and gashed them.
667
00:43:35.880 --> 00:43:38.719
Ask Washington how that felt against USC. As good as Pennix was, the
668
00:43:38.800 --> 00:43:43.239
running game was better. You would
love that because I know Stroud's always going
669
00:43:43.320 --> 00:43:45.760
to exist. You would love it
if you walk out here in the MVP
670
00:43:45.280 --> 00:43:50.599
was the run game. Then if
that's the case, they will win.
671
00:43:51.119 --> 00:43:53.239
That they can go in and win. If the MVP of this game is
672
00:43:53.280 --> 00:43:58.239
the run game, they're coming home
with a victory. Now that hadn't happened
673
00:43:58.280 --> 00:44:01.320
in nine games or eight games.
So I would assume that you go in.
674
00:44:01.679 --> 00:44:05.480
But I say fourteen points because I
don't have to change my game plan.
675
00:44:05.639 --> 00:44:07.719
If I'm down fourteen, I don't
have to throw every down and I
676
00:44:07.800 --> 00:44:13.079
can still stay with what I'm doing. So I would approach it as a
677
00:44:13.119 --> 00:44:15.559
coordinator. We're down fourteen when the
game starts. That will keep me in
678
00:44:15.599 --> 00:44:21.280
aggressive mode because Joe Burrow can force
you to be overly aggressive. You you
679
00:44:21.400 --> 00:44:23.119
force balls because you figure you got
to score every time. But on the
680
00:44:23.199 --> 00:44:25.880
other side, it can force you
going into a game playing a little tentative
681
00:44:25.920 --> 00:44:30.480
because I got it. I don't
want getting too cute, and then next
682
00:44:30.519 --> 00:44:32.239
thing you know, you're down seventeen
to nothing because you went three and out
683
00:44:32.280 --> 00:44:35.840
three times and they scored on all
of them. And they are capable of
684
00:44:35.920 --> 00:44:40.480
scoring on three possessions in a row. They're that good offensively and they're playing
685
00:44:40.559 --> 00:44:44.480
like it. So establish it,
Yes, force it. If it's not
686
00:44:44.559 --> 00:44:46.639
there, absolutely not. My quarterback's
playing well enough that if I have to
687
00:44:46.639 --> 00:44:52.039
put it in his hand, I
can. Damian Pierce was not a no
688
00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:57.039
show, but he did not practice
yesterday with what's he got an ankle injury,
689
00:44:57.119 --> 00:45:00.599
is questionable for this weekend. Andrew
Beck, the fullback, also questionable
690
00:45:00.679 --> 00:45:04.960
with a shoulder, elbow, and
ankle injury. A couple other injuries.
691
00:45:05.039 --> 00:45:08.719
Robert Woods questionable. He was limited
in Thursday's practice. Brevin Jordan the tight
692
00:45:08.840 --> 00:45:14.960
end, did not participate in thursday's
practice. Nico Collins questionable with a calf
693
00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:17.280
injury. Did not participate in practice
Thursday. So a little banged up,
694
00:45:17.960 --> 00:45:21.920
but I've been c NFL. Everybody's
banged up. So also another one,
695
00:45:21.960 --> 00:45:28.280
Will Anderson Junior, was a limited
participant with a knee injury at practice estray
696
00:45:28.280 --> 00:45:31.119
All. This coming from Aaron Wilson
of KPRC two Sports. We'll have Aaron
697
00:45:31.159 --> 00:45:36.519
Wilson join us at eight thirty this
morning, as we have him every Friday
698
00:45:36.599 --> 00:45:42.760
talking Texans football. Yeah, I
just think with what we've seen when c
699
00:45:43.000 --> 00:45:45.400
J. Stroud, when the ball
is in CJ. Stroud, he makes
700
00:45:45.440 --> 00:45:47.760
place right and then we I always
go back to a couple of weeks ago
701
00:45:47.760 --> 00:45:51.039
against Carolina where they tried to run, try to run, try to run,
702
00:45:51.119 --> 00:45:53.159
try to run, force runs,
force runs, force runs, and
703
00:45:53.280 --> 00:45:55.639
yet it didn't work. And that
was against the Panthers. Can't do that
704
00:45:55.679 --> 00:46:01.440
against the Bengals. Bengals are much
better then the Panthers. So I just
705
00:46:01.559 --> 00:46:07.719
I'm curious to see what style of
offense and what offensive play calling Bobby Slowik
706
00:46:07.800 --> 00:46:10.000
is gonna drum up this week.
And you know what you can do though,
707
00:46:10.159 --> 00:46:12.880
Brian, going into this, you
said you're not gonna be able to
708
00:46:12.920 --> 00:46:15.239
do that, and you may not, but you think about a Cincinnati's approach.
709
00:46:15.280 --> 00:46:19.599
If you're Cincinnati and you and I
were putting a game plan in as
710
00:46:19.599 --> 00:46:22.800
their court and all the tape you've
watched what we know their strength, right
711
00:46:22.920 --> 00:46:27.719
yeah, cut and throwing the ball
and being multiple formations and getting people involved.
712
00:46:27.800 --> 00:46:30.679
Right. So, if that's the
case in your Cincinnati and you're thinking
713
00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:34.159
like we are the run game,
although you'll tell it out loud, the
714
00:46:34.239 --> 00:46:37.960
run games not that doesn't worry you
as much. But here's what happens when
715
00:46:37.000 --> 00:46:40.079
you are all focused on I'm going
to tell you. Let's just assume this
716
00:46:40.199 --> 00:46:44.719
team on defense, the Texans are
all Joe Burrow all the time. Joe
717
00:46:44.800 --> 00:46:47.599
Mixon is capable of rushing for one
hundred and forty five yards. So you
718
00:46:47.760 --> 00:46:52.920
have to and we've seen Pierce in
that run game. If it takes two
719
00:46:52.000 --> 00:46:54.639
dudes to rush for one hundred and
fifty yards on thirty five carries. Great
720
00:46:55.199 --> 00:46:59.119
games like this, you can get
so caught up as a defense and thinking
721
00:46:59.280 --> 00:47:01.360
get to the quarterback, get to
the quarterback. You leave lanes open to
722
00:47:01.440 --> 00:47:06.360
be gassed running the football. And
c J. Stroud one thing, don't
723
00:47:06.360 --> 00:47:10.079
forget your feet. You can use
those legs to your advantage in the right
724
00:47:10.320 --> 00:47:13.880
I mean bail, but you can
use them to your advantage. But their
725
00:47:13.920 --> 00:47:17.119
whole thought process has to be both
teams make sure you take away the passing
726
00:47:17.199 --> 00:47:22.480
game, and in the process both
run games could actually be very very relevant
727
00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:27.840
in this game. If in fact, the the coverages and the way that
728
00:47:27.960 --> 00:47:32.119
the defensive front is thinking is sacks
or go home right, and they could
729
00:47:32.159 --> 00:47:36.880
lead for some gaping holes and it
may not be a lot of success,
730
00:47:37.519 --> 00:47:39.760
but it may be enough success.
Like a twelve yard running the red zone
731
00:47:39.760 --> 00:47:43.400
that gets you a first down on
third and four, then all of a
732
00:47:43.400 --> 00:47:45.559
sudden you say, we normally throw
there, you get a first down,
733
00:47:45.840 --> 00:47:47.239
four more downs, you go and
score a touchdown. Set of kick a
734
00:47:47.280 --> 00:47:52.360
field goal could work to your advantage
against this because the show the story is
735
00:47:52.079 --> 00:47:58.159
Stroud versus Burrow. The truth is
it's the Bengals versus the Texans. And
736
00:47:58.599 --> 00:48:00.360
even if both quarterbacks play great,
but somebody lays the ball on the ground
737
00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:05.039
three times, you're in trouble as
a team. In the win against the
738
00:48:05.119 --> 00:48:09.000
Buffalo for the Bengals, Joe Mixon
rushed the football twelve times and then again,
739
00:48:09.079 --> 00:48:15.840
I'm sorry, yeah twelve times.
And then against the San Francisco forty
740
00:48:15.920 --> 00:48:19.920
nine ers, Joe Mixon rush for
sixteen times, so not a lot of
741
00:48:20.039 --> 00:48:22.119
carries. But against the forty nine
ers he rushed for eighty seven yards and
742
00:48:22.159 --> 00:48:25.880
a touchdown. And then against Buffalo, I believe it was like forty seven
743
00:48:25.960 --> 00:48:30.880
yards, so not a super run
heavy and Joe Burrow threw for over forty
744
00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:35.880
times against the Buffalo Bills, and
yet he was phenomenal. And that because
745
00:48:35.880 --> 00:48:40.199
he protects the ball so much.
You almost feel like slants and curl routes
746
00:48:40.239 --> 00:48:44.559
and hitch routes are run game plays, you really do, because he's so
747
00:48:45.519 --> 00:48:47.599
excuse me, so efficient doing it. What made Drew Brees so good for
748
00:48:47.679 --> 00:48:52.039
so long is hell. A twenty
yard throw to Drew Brees was like a
749
00:48:52.119 --> 00:48:57.079
handoff, That's how accurate he was. And I cannot wait to see.
750
00:48:57.360 --> 00:49:00.280
I would love to see one of
those back and forth battles. You know,
751
00:49:00.320 --> 00:49:04.400
you want defense to get stops,
but where Stroud and I want to
752
00:49:04.400 --> 00:49:06.000
see all of it. I want
to see. I'd love to see a
753
00:49:06.039 --> 00:49:08.840
complete game. But the greedy part
of me wants to see Stroud and Burrow
754
00:49:09.599 --> 00:49:13.800
go Allen and Mahomes in that playoff
game two years ago, whatever it was,
755
00:49:13.880 --> 00:49:16.199
you know the football last Yeah,
just a treat, just a treat
756
00:49:16.239 --> 00:49:20.360
to watch, and I think you
will. You'll see throws on both guys.
757
00:49:20.400 --> 00:49:22.480
You're like, damn, these guys
good. And you'll hope that the
758
00:49:22.519 --> 00:49:25.199
defense gets a stop or forces a
couple of field goals and you replace that
759
00:49:25.320 --> 00:49:29.079
with touchdowns and give yourself a little
real estate. This will be a hard
760
00:49:29.119 --> 00:49:30.440
game, I'll tell you. Texans, tell you what. Though this is
761
00:49:30.480 --> 00:49:35.079
a noon kickoff. I can't wait
for that seven to twenty matchup the the
762
00:49:36.079 --> 00:49:44.079
Zach Wilson led Jets against Aid and
O'Connell's Las Vegas Raiders primetime. Baby,
763
00:49:44.159 --> 00:49:49.800
you better recognize why would they not
flex a different game into that slot?
764
00:49:50.119 --> 00:49:52.559
This is a flex? Yeah,
I see that. The Raiders are a
765
00:49:52.639 --> 00:49:57.480
flex. You're about Raiders are a
flex though, Yeah, Raiders and Jets
766
00:49:57.519 --> 00:50:00.559
will flex their ass off kind of
or better yet, very often once in
767
00:50:00.599 --> 00:50:07.840
a while, Denver at Buffalo Monday
Night, Russ Wilson the chef let him
768
00:50:07.880 --> 00:50:12.880
cook, taking on Josh Allen.
Yeah the cowboy. Yeah you may well,
769
00:50:13.000 --> 00:50:16.199
even though he's a bill. The
Carolina Chicago game may just be one
770
00:50:16.239 --> 00:50:21.519
step down from the Raiders Jets game. You may not love offense. At
771
00:50:21.559 --> 00:50:22.679
least the Raiders got a few.
I mean, so do the Jets.
772
00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:27.320
But at least the Raiders. You
got Josh Jacobs to watch. Davon Dadas
773
00:50:27.360 --> 00:50:29.480
now over there, Garrett will say, got good. Player's problem is gonna
774
00:50:29.480 --> 00:50:31.840
get in the ball. No,
but defense will show up and Max Crosby's
775
00:50:31.840 --> 00:50:34.880
always fun to watch. Yeah,
there you go. Yeah, well,
776
00:50:34.880 --> 00:50:36.920
what a game that's gonna be.
I just wish they would have flexed a
777
00:50:36.920 --> 00:50:38.400
different game into it, maybe the
Texans and Joe, you know, against
778
00:50:38.480 --> 00:50:42.800
Joe Burrow. But DVR and watch
it like eight times. Yeah, that's
779
00:50:42.840 --> 00:50:45.119
exactly what I'm gonna do. All
right, Let's get to the stake out
780
00:50:45.199 --> 00:50:50.039

audio here for you. Sean lane Kiffin
789
00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:42.440
and ole Miss have filed a motion
to dismiss a forty million dollar lawsuit.
790
00:51:43.199 --> 00:51:51.239
Ole Miss defensive tackle DeSanto Rawlins,
was kicked off the team for missing practices
791
00:51:51.280 --> 00:51:55.480
and meetings during a mental health crisis. He missed two weeks. Due to
792
00:51:55.559 --> 00:52:00.400
this mental health crisis, he assumed
the university in lane kiff and for failure
793
00:52:00.519 --> 00:52:06.719
to provide equal protection, racial and
sexual discrimination, and multiple other allegations.
794
00:52:06.760 --> 00:52:10.159
According to the lawsuit, when he
finally went to go meet with lane Kiffen,
795
00:52:10.800 --> 00:52:17.039
he recorded the conversation between him and
his head coach. And this is
796
00:52:17.159 --> 00:52:23.239
how it sounded if you would have
come here when you kept getting messages the
797
00:52:23.280 --> 00:52:27.079
head coach wants to talk to you, and utan, I'm not ready to
798
00:52:27.159 --> 00:52:32.320
talk to him, wasn't What where
will you live in? So you got
799
00:52:32.400 --> 00:52:36.280
me disrespect, We'll get out of
here. Go go, You're off the
800
00:52:36.320 --> 00:52:39.159
team. If you're done. See
see you, because I see you.
801
00:52:39.639 --> 00:52:45.400
Go go and guess what we can
kick you off the team. Just go
802
00:52:45.599 --> 00:52:50.000
read your writes about mental health we
can kick you off the team for not
803
00:52:50.199 --> 00:52:53.199
showing up when the head coach has
to meet with you and you don't show
804
00:52:53.280 --> 00:52:58.719
up for weeks, okay, we
can remove you from the team. It's
805
00:52:58.760 --> 00:53:05.000
called me to go hiding behind and
not showing up to work. Okay.
806
00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:10.960
So that was the uh secretly recorded
audio between Rollins and Lane Kiffen. Well,
807
00:53:12.039 --> 00:53:20.480
first off, it's bush league to
record the conversation. Absolutely, it
808
00:53:20.519 --> 00:53:23.119
should be the automatically it should be. It doesn't matter. Can't use it
809
00:53:24.000 --> 00:53:28.840
recording a conversation for that to me, I don't. To me, I
810
00:53:28.880 --> 00:53:31.880
think it's just I think you were
looking for trouble. If you're the kid,
811
00:53:32.519 --> 00:53:36.559
I'm I don't know who's mental health
or what have you. I don't
812
00:53:36.559 --> 00:53:38.159
know that, but you're looking at
that. Because you have mental health doesn't
813
00:53:38.199 --> 00:53:40.960
qualify you to walk into a private
meeting, is if that's what we are
814
00:53:42.039 --> 00:53:45.360
now? So you know what you
do from now on? People want private
815
00:53:45.440 --> 00:53:49.840
No no third person sitting there,
record all you want. We're gonna have
816
00:53:49.920 --> 00:53:52.440
third person here who is actually gonna
be it. I would nowadays get to
817
00:53:52.519 --> 00:53:55.119
point, it's almost like I guess
that you're walking into somebody's house or somebody's
818
00:53:55.119 --> 00:53:59.239
meeting. You're not Your phones aren't
allowed in here? Yeah, well yeah,
819
00:53:59.639 --> 00:54:01.159
not in my place, or not
leave them alone and until you empty
820
00:54:01.159 --> 00:54:04.159
out your pockets, I prove dation
you have a phone on you, there'll
821
00:54:04.199 --> 00:54:07.360
be no meeting if that's what it's
going to come to. And I don't
822
00:54:07.400 --> 00:54:10.840
see what Lane Kiffin said now cussing
in that the kids obviously when he says
823
00:54:10.880 --> 00:54:15.079
don't disrespel, disrespect me or whatever
he said, I understand the mental part,
824
00:54:15.679 --> 00:54:19.079
but you do if you've got a
mental issue and need time away,
825
00:54:19.159 --> 00:54:21.639
go see the coach. He's asked
you to come to. I'm not ready
826
00:54:21.679 --> 00:54:24.320
to see the coach yet. Well, nobody's asking me to come back and
827
00:54:24.400 --> 00:54:27.719
have to practice. You've got to
come back and talk to us. Not
828
00:54:27.840 --> 00:54:30.559
coming back, not come back,
dot come back. I want to.
829
00:54:30.719 --> 00:54:37.079
I have such compassion for mental health
issues for people. It's so damn important,
830
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:40.880
but I'm not sure it's a kick
to your mental health. When the
831
00:54:40.920 --> 00:54:45.079
coach said, just come visit us, and if you keep denying it and
832
00:54:45.119 --> 00:54:45.840
don't show up and don't show up, do a shit. They have no
833
00:54:46.000 --> 00:54:50.239
choice. What are we supposed to
do? And then he walks in there
834
00:54:50.280 --> 00:54:52.159
and doesn't want to talk. I'm
still not ready. I don't want to
835
00:54:52.199 --> 00:54:53.400
come in. I didn't want to
come in and then to do that and
836
00:54:53.480 --> 00:54:58.480
then record the conversation. Just by
recording the conversation alone, he would not
837
00:54:58.559 --> 00:55:00.639
be welcome back to the program.
There was nothing said. They're a cuss
838
00:55:00.679 --> 00:55:04.119
word, big deal. Coaches cuss
all the time. Oh well, and
839
00:55:04.199 --> 00:55:07.159
if you're going to record a private
conversation, you better be prepared to hear
840
00:55:07.199 --> 00:55:10.199
a cuss word or not like what
you have to hear. I am completely
841
00:55:10.239 --> 00:55:14.840
compassionate for the mental health and I
don't know what it is. And apparently
842
00:55:14.960 --> 00:55:17.079
Lane just wanted to talk to him
and get it as well. I think
843
00:55:17.119 --> 00:55:21.880
you can go compassionate both ways.
But I think you can also it's a
844
00:55:22.000 --> 00:55:28.000
win in doubt. It's a mental
health issue. Oh yeah, What was
845
00:55:28.039 --> 00:55:30.920
the sexual issue with him? I
don't know, I mean meaning sexual what
846
00:55:31.079 --> 00:55:36.199
he say seg so in the in
according to racial According to the lawsuit,
847
00:55:37.639 --> 00:55:45.719
it is provide equal protection racial and
sexual discrimination and multiple other allegations. Well,
848
00:55:45.800 --> 00:55:49.559
he's a male talking to a mail
wouldn't he is that what he's talking?
849
00:55:49.559 --> 00:55:52.039
I don't know what he means by
that. The lawsuit alleges that Kiffen
850
00:55:52.119 --> 00:55:55.360
intentionally took adverse action against Rawlins on
account of race for requesting and taking a
851
00:55:55.440 --> 00:56:00.679
mental health break, but not taking
adverse action against white student athletes for the
852
00:56:00.719 --> 00:56:05.719
same request. It alleges sexual discrimination
on the basis that ole Miss has not
853
00:56:05.920 --> 00:56:10.360
taken adverse action against female student athletes
for requesting and taking a mental health break,
854
00:56:12.079 --> 00:56:15.719
So basically saying women and white people
get a bigger break than him.
855
00:56:15.880 --> 00:56:17.800
Correct, is that what he's saying? Well, I don't know the the
856
00:56:19.719 --> 00:56:22.679
culture of what goes on on their
programmer school, but that's always a good
857
00:56:22.679 --> 00:56:27.199
one to blame, you know what
I'm saying. Anytime you blame the mental
858
00:56:27.239 --> 00:56:30.519
health, it's a it's a he
likes, he doesn't. He likes women,
859
00:56:30.599 --> 00:56:32.159
and likes white guys and likes other
people, but he just doesn't like
860
00:56:32.599 --> 00:56:37.559
any coaches. I would imagine a
majority of African American players on his football
861
00:56:37.599 --> 00:56:42.039
team. I mean, so,
I don't I've always you and I have
862
00:56:42.079 --> 00:56:45.480
talked about in sports, let alone
society. I don't know how people are,
863
00:56:45.559 --> 00:56:46.960
but I can't imagine a locker room. And I know, I know
864
00:56:47.079 --> 00:56:51.039
that's not even to say nobody is, but going into the locker room when
865
00:56:51.039 --> 00:56:55.199
there you like family and you're coaching
and playing this side by side with the
866
00:56:55.280 --> 00:57:00.119
best people in the world that are
different color, different religions, different beliefs
867
00:57:00.119 --> 00:57:04.519
in you. I've just never understood
how that comes into it. Yep,
868
00:57:04.559 --> 00:57:07.360
he doesn't like me. I don't
get a mental health day because I don't
869
00:57:07.400 --> 00:57:08.119
understand. But I don't know what
goes on there, So I'm not going
870
00:57:08.199 --> 00:57:12.400
to get into their head judging if
we're just judging from what I heard.
871
00:57:13.639 --> 00:57:15.360
If you're not willing to come in
when the coach is requested to sit down
872
00:57:15.400 --> 00:57:17.079
and talk to you, and you
keep saying I'm not ready, I'm not
873
00:57:17.119 --> 00:57:21.679
ready, that doesn't buy you time. Because you use the mental health card.
874
00:57:22.000 --> 00:57:24.360
He may have some serious mental health
issues. I don't know, but
875
00:57:24.480 --> 00:57:28.719
I know this, Even then,
you can take twenty minutes or a half
876
00:57:28.760 --> 00:57:30.880
hour and go see your head coach
in a meeting. Correct, absolutely so,
877
00:57:31.199 --> 00:57:36.199
So listen, you can play the
card all you want and people and
878
00:57:36.440 --> 00:57:39.599
he may have mental health Issais,
I didn't hear one time We're Lane Kiffin
879
00:57:39.679 --> 00:57:43.480
in that conversation said we don't give
a rats ass about your man. He
880
00:57:43.599 --> 00:57:46.400
just said mental health issue. Doesn't
prevent you or leaving the university or else.
881
00:57:46.480 --> 00:57:51.880
Kicking off team isn't prevented by mental
health. Read the bylaws or whatever
882
00:57:52.039 --> 00:57:54.199
he said the contract. So I
don't know the kid. I don't know
883
00:57:54.239 --> 00:57:58.079
what his mental health issues are.
I hope they get satisfied and he's okay.
884
00:57:58.639 --> 00:58:04.119
But you know the forty million dollars, he doesn't like you only well,
885
00:58:04.239 --> 00:58:07.039
I don't does Lane Kiffin as any
they're a female playing on his team?
886
00:58:07.079 --> 00:58:08.559
I don't think so? Oh so? Or is that against the university
887
00:58:08.599 --> 00:58:15.159
in the DA universe? And then
he, i've coach doesn't give the same
888
00:58:15.960 --> 00:58:17.239
I don't. I never understood.
But from a distance, what do I
889
00:58:17.360 --> 00:58:21.159
know. I'm not in their locker
room. I just can't fathom you could
890
00:58:21.239 --> 00:58:22.719
last that long as a coach and
have the feelings that that guy said the
891
00:58:22.800 --> 00:58:25.239
Lane Kiffin. But if you've got
mental health, take it off, but
892
00:58:25.320 --> 00:58:28.320
go talk to the coach about it. Maybe we can help you solve it.
893
00:58:28.360 --> 00:58:30.719
If you don't come and get help, how do we help you solve
894
00:58:30.760 --> 00:58:32.519
it? He went three and a
half weeks without coming to the facility and
895
00:58:32.559 --> 00:58:36.320
meeting with his head coach or staffers. Well, then that's on him.
896
00:58:36.400 --> 00:58:38.480
And you know what, I have
no problem with Lane Kiffin saying time for
897
00:58:38.559 --> 00:58:43.599
you to go somewhere else. You
know what it stems from Lane Kiffin moved
898
00:58:43.679 --> 00:58:47.519
him from defensive tackle to the scout
team's offensive line because he wouldn't transfer.
899
00:58:47.559 --> 00:58:51.440
According to the lawsuit, Rawlins asked
Kiffin if this was a choice or a
900
00:58:51.519 --> 00:58:53.679
command. Rawlins alleges that Kiffen told
him, if you don't like it,
901
00:58:53.760 --> 00:59:01.119
then you should quit. And I
mean in my career, if you don't
902
00:59:01.239 --> 00:59:04.599
like it either, like I've never
been told to quit, but like,
903
00:59:04.719 --> 00:59:06.800
if you don't like it, do
better. And if you don't do better,
904
00:59:06.840 --> 00:59:07.840
maybe this isn't the place to play
for you. I'm a mental health
905
00:59:07.880 --> 00:59:12.800
advocate, a self esteem builder,
but I'm also not a You don't get
906
00:59:12.840 --> 00:59:15.159
to lean on the mental health as
an excuse all the time. Three and
907
00:59:15.199 --> 00:59:17.639
a half weeks they tried to get
you to go there, and you're if
908
00:59:17.679 --> 00:59:22.119
the mental health truth truly, I'm
sorry to tell you. And if this
909
00:59:22.199 --> 00:59:27.239
hurts somebody's feelings, oh well,
if the mental health issue stems from he
910
00:59:27.480 --> 00:59:30.280
moved you positions and told you if
you don't like the move, I'm your
911
00:59:30.320 --> 00:59:34.800
coach. I'm not asking you to
move positions. I'm telling you we're moving
912
00:59:34.840 --> 00:59:37.400
you there, and you're not going
to show up. There's a whole bunch
913
00:59:37.440 --> 00:59:40.559
of other universities that might want to
give you a scholarship and we're willing to
914
00:59:40.639 --> 00:59:43.639
let you out of it, and
we're not even going to fight it.
915
00:59:43.719 --> 00:59:46.400
Dude, have at it. So
if that's his mental health issue, then
916
00:59:46.519 --> 00:59:51.679
we all got one because we all
been told to your benched, your start,
917
00:59:51.920 --> 00:59:53.880
you got booed. Oh, you
got to move positions. Let me
918
00:59:53.920 --> 00:59:58.480
tell you what that kid's not long
for with that approach playing football. He
919
00:59:58.639 --> 01:00:00.559
might want to take two weeks off, two more weeks and think about a
920
01:00:00.639 --> 01:00:06.320
career change. Yeah, at after
save it. After he was moved to
921
01:00:06.400 --> 01:00:09.960
the Scouts offensive line. That's when
he told head coach Lane Kiff and then
922
01:00:09.960 --> 01:00:13.760
he was going to take a quote
mental break. Well he took one for
923
01:00:13.800 --> 01:00:15.719
three. Okay, mental break.
But come on back and see me so
924
01:00:15.800 --> 01:00:17.400
we can help you. Just nope, nope, just show up. You
925
01:00:17.559 --> 01:00:22.280
can't out to practice. If if
you're taking like let's talk about in the
926
01:00:22.320 --> 01:00:24.559
real world, if you are taking
meaning the career in the business world,
927
01:00:24.599 --> 01:00:30.280
if you take a personal day,
that doesn't give you the uh. No,
928
01:00:30.320 --> 01:00:31.559
I won't say the right. But
you still got to communicate with your
929
01:00:31.559 --> 01:00:34.440
boss. If you go to your
boss and say I need a mental I
930
01:00:34.519 --> 01:00:36.480
need a little metal break, and
they say, cool, we'll see you
931
01:00:36.519 --> 01:00:38.760
on Monday. And it's Wednesday,
and you don't show up on Monday,
932
01:00:38.800 --> 01:00:42.679
and they keep calling you or texting, you're saying are you gonna come in?
933
01:00:42.760 --> 01:00:44.360
Come in? Come in? They
have no choice but to move on
934
01:00:44.440 --> 01:00:47.719
from right, you're not accepting help. And it simply stems from getting moved
935
01:00:47.760 --> 01:00:52.039
on a position and basically getting benched
or demoted. Guess what, buddy,
936
01:00:52.800 --> 01:00:54.440
the faint of heart need not play
this sport. He went three and a
937
01:00:54.440 --> 01:00:58.719
half weeks without eye helping. I
hope his mental health is great and everything's
938
01:00:58.760 --> 01:01:00.559
fine. He's just gonna have to
do mental health thing at another university,
939
01:01:00.639 --> 01:01:04.599
right because I wouldn't keep him on
my rostery. You go to school here,
940
01:01:04.960 --> 01:01:07.519
but you're we're not You're not playing
football for us because that's not what
941
01:01:07.599 --> 01:01:12.239
we're teaching here. Sorry, got
to go find it somewhere else. Let's
942
01:01:12.480 --> 01:01:17.679
let's get see. Oh you moved
me position, you'll like me? No,
943
01:01:17.840 --> 01:01:20.960
it's called a position move, buddy, it has nothing to do with
944
01:01:21.000 --> 01:01:22.960
the color of your skin. And
then he and then he and then he
945
01:01:22.039 --> 01:01:27.599
tries tossume him for forty mil ten
million compensation. He's got damages, he's
946
01:01:27.599 --> 01:01:30.480
getting him, he's getting his name
image. You like this buddy anyway,
947
01:01:30.559 --> 01:01:35.280
he can't guess what the chances are
he's gonna win that zero swim and none,
948
01:01:35.320 --> 01:01:37.480
yeah slim, And then all right, let's talk continue to talk college

983
01:04:17.800 --> 01:04:21.000
This Sunday, It's a noon kickoff
up in Cincinnati. Talking college football.
984
01:04:21.280 --> 01:04:27.320
Got some big matchups this weekend,
Michigan taking on Penn State, but
985
01:04:27.519 --> 01:04:35.559
yet no decision from the Big Ten
on this Michigan signed stealing scandal. Big
986
01:04:35.679 --> 01:04:41.920
Ten's response to Michigan expected early this
afternoon. Michigan sent a letter to the
987
01:04:41.960 --> 01:04:45.880
Big Ten urging conference the conference to
respect the due process. The letter also
988
01:04:46.000 --> 01:04:51.079
suggested the Big Ten be cautious on
setting precedent in this case, so if
989
01:04:51.199 --> 01:04:56.239
Michigan trying to flex a little bit. Also, there were some Michigan lawmakers
990
01:04:56.280 --> 01:05:00.000
that got involved in this. Since
we love when politics get involved in sports,
991
01:05:00.360 --> 01:05:02.519
don't do it. Just keep them
out of it if you wanted to.
992
01:05:02.639 --> 01:05:06.960
If you want it to linger and
suck and never get resolved, and
993
01:05:08.199 --> 01:05:10.960
when it does have a resolution,
it'll be one you don't like, let
994
01:05:11.039 --> 01:05:15.920
the politics and government get involved.
Even let them get involved. Eleven Michigan
995
01:05:15.039 --> 01:05:20.519
lawmakers wrote a joint letter to the
Big Ten Antoni Patiti urging patients for Michigan
996
01:05:20.559 --> 01:05:24.599
football. Yeah right, since we, like I said, since we want
997
01:05:24.719 --> 01:05:28.119
lawmakers to be involved in this decision, stay your bitch ass out of it.
998
01:05:28.320 --> 01:05:30.840
And you know what else, just
what I wanted to hear from eleven
999
01:05:30.920 --> 01:05:32.679
people that support the Michigan program.
And I'm not saying that, I'm not
1000
01:05:32.719 --> 01:05:36.119
saying they did it. I'm just
saying, well, did the lawmakers in
1001
01:05:36.159 --> 01:05:42.199
Ohio say be patient as well?
Okay, so of course they want to,
1002
01:05:42.280 --> 01:05:44.719
and I agree, you got to
let it. You've got to get
1003
01:05:44.800 --> 01:05:49.039
all the facts. I understand that, but let's just stop with the keep
1004
01:05:49.159 --> 01:05:56.719
listen anytime, life's better with less
politicians involved than more. And no offense
1005
01:05:56.719 --> 01:05:59.280
to you politicians. You guys do
hard work and do some good things.
1006
01:05:59.320 --> 01:06:02.719
Okay, no disrespect, but I
got news for you there. It takes
1007
01:06:02.760 --> 01:06:08.519
them long enough to solve problem.
You're not hurrying it along with politics involved.
1008
01:06:09.239 --> 01:06:11.800
Governments stay out of it until we
need you, and that's rare.
1009
01:06:12.119 --> 01:06:14.480
So there you go. Yeah,
those big boys, let them take care
1010
01:06:14.480 --> 01:06:17.719
of it. So now you got
it's It seems to me from where I
1011
01:06:17.880 --> 01:06:23.559
sit and everything I've read over the
last day, that Michigan knows they're about
1012
01:06:23.599 --> 01:06:28.400
to get in trouble for this when
the fingers pointed at you, hm or
1013
01:06:28.480 --> 01:06:31.519
you know you're start deviates, start
pointing that finger a lot of other places,
1014
01:06:31.639 --> 01:06:34.920
right, try to try to take
that to make them take a different
1015
01:06:35.000 --> 01:06:39.800
road to get to you and hopefully
on their on their detour. Then along
1016
01:06:39.880 --> 01:06:43.039
the way they'll get their engine will
blow up and they will you know,
1017
01:06:43.159 --> 01:06:45.199
be waiting for somebody to come pick
them up while they're getting their car repaired
1018
01:06:45.199 --> 01:06:48.079
to they have flat tire. So
yeah, no, it is Uh,
1019
01:06:48.760 --> 01:06:54.360
it sounds like there's too much against
them for something not to happen. I
1020
01:06:54.599 --> 01:06:58.920
believe with all my heart something is
gonna happen. I don't know how deep
1021
01:06:59.000 --> 01:07:00.840
it is, and I don't know
if that means. I don't think it's
1022
01:07:00.960 --> 01:07:03.559
enough to stick your quarterback, I
mean, your head coach, suspend him
1023
01:07:03.559 --> 01:07:06.199
because they can still win without Jim
Harball, right, the gym's a really
1024
01:07:06.199 --> 01:07:10.920
good coach, but they're talented enough. They stayed undefeated, I know,
1025
01:07:11.000 --> 01:07:15.320
against an easy schedule when he wasn't
there earlier. With the suspension, but
1026
01:07:15.559 --> 01:07:18.599
this can't just be a coach suspension. If it hits, it's gonna have
1027
01:07:18.599 --> 01:07:21.519
to be a full team Yeah.
And if they didn't do it, leave
1028
01:07:21.559 --> 01:07:24.719
him alone and let's move on,
right. And then the reports are that
1029
01:07:25.039 --> 01:07:29.960
the punishment that'll come down is going
to be against Jim Harball and Jim Harball
1030
01:07:29.960 --> 01:07:33.880
alone, it'll be an indefinite suspension. Yeah, So I don't know is
1031
01:07:33.920 --> 01:07:38.440
that enough? So they're going to
basically what they're gonna do is they're gonna
1032
01:07:38.440 --> 01:07:42.119
suspend Harball and think that'll suffice and
then let Michigan keep playing. Pretty much,
1033
01:07:43.199 --> 01:07:45.760
Yeah, that's not what I would
do but I'm just just from everything
1034
01:07:45.800 --> 01:07:47.360
that I've read, and I know
ESPN reporting on it early this morning.
1035
01:07:48.119 --> 01:07:53.000
But then, you know, you
look at some of these teams in the
1036
01:07:53.119 --> 01:07:58.079
NFL that are not very good,
like the Bears. Job, that's Jim
1037
01:07:58.119 --> 01:08:01.119
Harball's waiting, I bet waiting for
him right now because they're not going to
1038
01:08:01.119 --> 01:08:04.719
be They're not very good and they're
not going to get better as the season
1039
01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:09.400
goes on. I agreed, So
they that may be a position for him,
1040
01:08:09.920 --> 01:08:13.079
you know, and depending how long
they hit Jim for Jim's Jim's just
1041
01:08:13.119 --> 01:08:15.079
stubborn enough to say, I'm coming
back to prove you guys are not leaving.
1042
01:08:15.720 --> 01:08:18.079
But if it's going to be a
long time hit him in the face
1043
01:08:18.159 --> 01:08:21.199
and make him be suspended this year
and the rest of next year or something,
1044
01:08:21.720 --> 01:08:24.880
then I wouldn't be surprised if he
left. Could it be that?
1045
01:08:25.640 --> 01:08:30.439
Maybe? But if you listen,
what's the low I mean when we punish
1046
01:08:30.520 --> 01:08:32.880
people, we give people, Okay, why would you get a half a
1047
01:08:33.000 --> 01:08:38.880
season suspension and that's a lot of
games in sports or a full season suspension
1048
01:08:38.880 --> 01:08:44.680
when you do PDEs why it's a
competitive advantage? Well, is sign stealing
1049
01:08:44.720 --> 01:08:47.079
and cheating that way when they're not
a competitive advantage. I see Michigan's a
1050
01:08:47.119 --> 01:08:50.640
good team without it. That's the
whole problem. For if you're a Michigan
1051
01:08:50.720 --> 01:08:55.359
van you're like, we can win
without this. Yeah, yet so I
1052
01:08:55.479 --> 01:08:57.560
listen. I would love it if
there was no problem. They just played
1053
01:08:57.560 --> 01:09:00.000
good football, went about it.
And but if you were cheating and you
1054
01:09:00.119 --> 01:09:03.319
cross the line, and this isn't
a holier than now self righteous thing.
1055
01:09:03.920 --> 01:09:06.239
If you did what you're not supposed
to do and you kept doing it,
1056
01:09:06.359 --> 01:09:11.920
and you did it with you know, technology, let alone. When you're
1057
01:09:11.960 --> 01:09:15.319
told you can't go scout teams,
you can't advent scout teams in college football,
1058
01:09:15.800 --> 01:09:18.359
well then you're gonna have to suffer
that. And it usually falls on
1059
01:09:18.439 --> 01:09:21.399
the head of the athletic director and
the head coach, and that may be
1060
01:09:21.560 --> 01:09:25.359
it. But I don't think that'll
be enough for the rest of the Big
1061
01:09:25.439 --> 01:09:28.479
Ten. I don't think they'll be
happy with that. The Conference one,
1062
01:09:28.520 --> 01:09:30.520
I'd be happy about it. There's
no shot, especially teams like Penn State,
1063
01:09:30.680 --> 01:09:34.079
I mean all of them, Ohio
State, especially if Ryan Day is
1064
01:09:34.119 --> 01:09:36.640
the one that started this whole thing, and if it doesn't come out quick,
1065
01:09:36.680 --> 01:09:41.479
the first thing, you know,
if it doesn't come the decision quick,
1066
01:09:41.600 --> 01:09:44.319
everybody that you play is going to
think we got beat because they cheated.
1067
01:09:44.640 --> 01:09:46.560
That's that's at least that's a narrative
you're going to hear. Michigan's better
1068
01:09:46.640 --> 01:09:49.119
than that. They're a better team
than having to cheat. But if they
1069
01:09:49.239 --> 01:09:53.000
did, I think it's got to
be more than just a head coach at
1070
01:09:53.000 --> 01:09:56.560
the consequences. Yeah, and they've
got a big one this weekend taking on
1071
01:09:56.680 --> 01:10:00.319
Penn State. Penn State's capable of
beating them. Their defense can show up.
1072
01:10:00.399 --> 01:10:03.479
Now it's a four and a half
Penn States or Michigan's favored by four
1073
01:10:03.479 --> 01:10:09.039
and a half. Would you would
you take Penn State plus four and a
1074
01:10:09.039 --> 01:10:15.159
half in Happy Valley? Yep?
Considering everything that's going on, and no
1075
01:10:15.279 --> 01:10:18.359
decision comes down between now and Saturday
Beach, Now tomorrow you stayed playing like
1076
01:10:18.399 --> 01:10:23.319
it is now, Yeah, I'll
take Michigan. So you take Michigan minus
1077
01:10:23.319 --> 01:10:27.119
four and a half. Yep.
I like Penn State. See, I
1078
01:10:27.199 --> 01:10:29.880
think that's a tough place to play, are they having probably a wide out
1079
01:10:29.880 --> 01:10:34.520
and all that, But it's an
eleven am kickoff. Michigan loves those times.
1080
01:10:35.239 --> 01:10:39.800
They're used to playing the noon game. I'll still take Michigan by a
1081
01:10:39.840 --> 01:10:42.880
touchdown. So Michigan minus four and
a half. Yeah, well that's perfect
1082
01:10:42.880 --> 01:10:45.039
because I'm about to tell you my
specs, White Spirits and Finer Foods picking
1083
01:10:45.800 --> 01:10:47.520
state of plus four. Well,
I was going to use this game,
1084
01:10:47.560 --> 01:10:50.119
but I don't know if I should
take Penn State or Michigan. I don't
1085
01:10:50.119 --> 01:10:53.279
want to take Michigan. I want
to take Penn State plus four and a
1086
01:10:53.279 --> 01:10:56.560
half. Roll the dice. Well, who's telling you not to? Let's
1087
01:10:56.600 --> 01:10:59.880
go it is. Throw a couple
of bands on it filming you're picking it
1088
01:11:00.079 --> 01:11:02.039
up, am? Sure? Yeah, what'd you say to a couple what
1089
01:11:02.319 --> 01:11:06.399
bands? I like that? Yeah? Yeah. Let's get to the break.
1090
01:11:06.960 --> 01:11:11.760
Let's look at some of these big
matchups. Georgia's got a big one,
1091
01:11:12.399 --> 01:11:15.039
Washington's got a big one, and
of course Michigan has a big one.
1092
01:11:15.079 --> 01:11:16.960
Let's look at some of those top
matchups in college football that will be
1093
01:11:17.039 --> 01:11:21.800
played tomorrow. And before we talk
about that, let's talk about the Spex,
1094
01:11:21.840 --> 01:11:27.000
Wine, Spirits and Finer Foods pick
of the Week and Drink of the
1095
01:11:27.199 --> 01:11:32.640
Week, and it's Michigan and Penn
State. I'm gonna take Penn State plus
1096
01:11:32.640 --> 01:11:34.680
four and a half. I'm doing
it. I'm doing it. Penn State
1097
01:11:34.720 --> 01:11:36.960
plus four and a half. They're
playing at home. It's eleven am kickoff,
1098
01:11:38.000 --> 01:11:40.239
probably a wide out. That's a
really hard place to play. And
1099
01:11:40.319 --> 01:11:43.760
I just feel like something's got to
catch up to Michigan at some point.
1100
01:11:44.119 --> 01:11:47.720
And with Spex, the holidays are
right here, and you know what time
1101
01:11:47.800 --> 01:11:53.680
it is. With Spex, it's

brothers. Could be. Probably not, but could be. Could be.
1134
01:14:36.239 --> 01:14:39.880
Maybe they're just just like us.
They could be just two basic brothers.
1135
01:14:39.920 --> 01:14:43.560
We're two basic white guys. We're

Yeah, I mean I got one.
1137
01:14:51.640 --> 01:14:57.319
I mean this song makes me want
to not be on radio, makes you
1138
01:14:57.399 --> 01:15:01.119
want to go, like to the
club up and yeah. Go on Instagram.
1139
01:15:01.199 --> 01:15:03.199
You'll see some people that hang in
the club at about four in the
1140
01:15:03.279 --> 01:15:05.800
morning. We know a couple,
don't we. They're on a Wednesday or
1141
01:15:05.920 --> 01:15:11.640
Tuesday or Monday or seven days a
week. Yeah. I don't know how
1142
01:15:11.680 --> 01:15:15.199
people do that, but you know, to each thrown, I guess no,
1143
01:15:15.359 --> 01:15:20.319
it's stupid. It's pretty stupid.
It's not real productive. Yeah man,
1144
01:15:20.880 --> 01:15:24.239
yeah, you know, just a
couple of basic white dudes vibing out.
1145
01:15:24.840 --> 01:15:29.960
Nothing wrong with that on a Friday, jusy funky Friday. But we're
1146
01:15:30.000 --> 01:15:31.960
doing Triple. He's got a little
different for us. It's a little uh
1147
01:15:33.359 --> 01:15:41.000
yeah, you're going a little younger
today. Yeah. Yeah. This song
1148
01:15:41.119 --> 01:15:44.960
wasn't just built yesterday. No,
it was cut was thank you. It
1149
01:15:45.079 --> 01:15:47.359
wasn't cut yesterday. It was not
sounds like though it's that fresh, you
1150
01:15:47.399 --> 01:15:51.319
know what I mean? When this
come out like there's like a two thousand
1151
01:15:51.319 --> 01:15:55.960
and five what happened release? What
happened to you? I think it was
1152
01:15:56.000 --> 01:15:59.560
two thousand and five. Triple was
like eight back then. I was.
1153
01:16:00.319 --> 01:16:02.039
Yeah, I've changed with the years, guys, So twenty, I'm twenty
1154
01:16:02.079 --> 01:16:06.800
four next year okay, yeah in
may travel like it's hot, drop it
1155
01:16:06.840 --> 01:16:09.720
and what's what do you year?
Do you think that came out trouble like
1156
01:16:09.800 --> 01:16:12.560
it's hot? Four? I'm gonna
say, oh three or O four?
1157
01:16:12.680 --> 01:16:17.079
Okay? I think it was five. Damn September twelve, two thousand and
1158
01:16:17.119 --> 01:16:21.520
four. Yes, sir, I
was a sophomore in high school. They
1159
01:16:21.600 --> 01:16:27.239
just dropped it. What were you
doing on All four making a nation happy?
1160
01:16:27.319 --> 01:16:32.960
On TV? Yes, sir,
that was nineteen years ago, so
1161
01:16:33.119 --> 01:16:39.279
Tripoli was five, four four or
five. I was just part of making
1162
01:16:39.640 --> 01:16:43.159
those times at ESPN the best album. Well, I'm just kidding. Well,
1163
01:16:43.239 --> 01:16:45.479
I was back then, you know, back when ESPN was what I
1164
01:16:45.600 --> 01:16:47.800
was doing to watch. That's what
I was doing, right, working my
1165
01:16:47.880 --> 01:16:53.039
ass off and trying to carve out
that that Uh now, I was probably
1166
01:16:53.079 --> 01:16:55.880
eight or so years into that career
and loving it. So damn yeah,
1167
01:16:56.119 --> 01:16:58.319
it was a good run show.
I've got a long tenure in radio,
1168
01:16:58.439 --> 01:17:03.680
TV, thirty pushing thirty. Yeah, damn. All right, figure,
1169
01:17:03.720 --> 01:17:09.079
I got about fifteen more than all
to retire, but who's counting. I'm
1170
01:17:09.079 --> 01:17:11.399
not a big retire I'll be doing
something. But I got about fifteen more
1171
01:17:11.479 --> 01:17:14.000
before I know. Way you're going
to ever retire anything, You're probably right,
1172
01:17:14.079 --> 01:17:15.640
no shot. Then I'm just gonna
go run station. Then what do
1173
01:17:15.680 --> 01:17:17.960
you then? What are you gonna
do? Come here and just come here
1174
01:17:18.000 --> 01:17:20.239
and be your boss? And what
are you gonna do? If you were
1175
01:17:20.279 --> 01:17:26.600
tired, give you double your pay
now. I don't you know what I'm
1176
01:17:26.640 --> 01:17:30.479
not. I have no retirement thoughts. Man, no ever, I'll I'll
1177
01:17:30.520 --> 01:17:33.479
be doing something working wise when I
die at one hundred and two. Probably
1178
01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:36.680
I'm just keep my mind sharp and
do it all I like and I like
1179
01:17:36.760 --> 01:17:41.800
grinding. Oh there we go,
there's another cut. We could play grinding
1180
01:17:42.800 --> 01:17:45.640
yeh boom. I like I like
the grind, and I like to come
1181
01:17:45.680 --> 01:17:47.640
on, man, we get up
and get to talk to people for fun.
1182
01:17:47.960 --> 01:17:51.800
Yeah, very special. Got to
have a purpose and a side,
1183
01:17:51.840 --> 01:17:56.000
you know, family and kids and
all that purpose. But I the purpose
1184
01:17:56.039 --> 01:17:58.439
of work to makes it not for
somebody else but for me. I like
1185
01:17:58.520 --> 01:18:00.920
it. Yeah, so I'm not
going any I got some big matchups in
1186
01:18:01.279 --> 01:18:08.800
Week eleven of college football. You've
got damn. Did you realize that Louisville
1187
01:18:09.319 --> 01:18:12.720
has got themselves up to the number
eleven ranking. Yeah, I've watched them
1188
01:18:12.800 --> 01:18:15.680
play. Man, They're they're they're
a good watch. They're playing really good,
1189
01:18:15.720 --> 01:18:17.079
sneaky, but that's one of the
sneakiest teams in America. With the
1190
01:18:17.079 --> 01:18:19.640
way they're rising. There's no doubt
of course. See, you have been
1191
01:18:19.720 --> 01:18:24.159
really cool to watch the big one
at Happy Valley. It's Michigan at Penn
1192
01:18:24.279 --> 01:18:32.279
State. That one is an eleven
am kickoff. You've got Florida State hosting
1193
01:18:32.439 --> 01:18:36.800
Miami. Miami up and down team
all season, but it's a rivalry game.
1194
01:18:36.880 --> 01:18:42.960
Never know, Utah traveling to Washington, Tennessee traveling to Missouri, and
1195
01:18:43.159 --> 01:18:49.279
then Georgia and Ole Miss. That's
gonna be a good one, it really
1196
01:18:49.439 --> 01:18:54.399
is. And where's that game at
auction? That's that's in Athens. That's
1197
01:18:54.439 --> 01:18:58.920
tough. That's a six pm kickoff. That'll be a hell of a football
1198
01:18:58.960 --> 01:19:02.760
game. And getting back to hell, what was I getting raised? So
1199
01:19:03.000 --> 01:19:05.800
talk to me before you what was
the game before you said the Ole Miss?
1200
01:19:05.920 --> 01:19:10.960
And times you had Tennessee at Missouri, Utah at Washington, My oh,
1201
01:19:11.039 --> 01:19:15.000
Miami at Florida State. Florida State, who continues to take care of
1202
01:19:15.039 --> 01:19:19.039
their business right in the top four. This is a I don't think Florida
1203
01:19:19.039 --> 01:19:24.760
State can lose a game and still
get in as long as Texas wins Washington
1204
01:19:24.880 --> 01:19:29.600
or I. Now, when I
say that you just can't lose these rivalry
1205
01:19:29.640 --> 01:19:31.079
games, you can't. And the
great thing about it is, well they're
1206
01:19:31.119 --> 01:19:33.680
better than Miami it is a rivalry
game, so they get to they'll stay
1207
01:19:33.760 --> 01:19:38.319
focused because you don't want to let
something like this where you're better than allow
1208
01:19:38.359 --> 01:19:42.159
your rival to come in and beat
you and cost you a run at that
1209
01:19:42.319 --> 01:19:47.920
title because it man and now they
obviously depending on who gets beat Washington,
1210
01:19:48.000 --> 01:19:53.199
Oregon, University of Texas, whoever
gets beat Alabama again, then Florida State
1211
01:19:53.239 --> 01:19:56.159
hangs in there. But if Florida
State just takes their business run, takes
1212
01:19:56.159 --> 01:19:58.159
care of their business, runs the
table, which they're very capable of,
1213
01:19:58.600 --> 01:20:02.199
they're in no matter what happens around
them. So this is a sneaky,
1214
01:20:02.319 --> 01:20:05.119
really important game. Now we're gonna
find out if Florida State goes and puts
1215
01:20:05.119 --> 01:20:09.479
it on them or if Mario Chrystal
Ball's team's ready to go. Yeah,
1216
01:20:09.560 --> 01:20:12.800
I agree. If Florida State loses
one, they're out. There's no way
1217
01:20:12.920 --> 01:20:15.560
they'll be the one. I would
as long as as long as the rest
1218
01:20:15.680 --> 01:20:19.279
keep winning, I would agree.
Utah at Washington, we know how Utah
1219
01:20:19.359 --> 01:20:25.359
plays physical. They play well regardless
of where they go. But they're traveling
1220
01:20:25.399 --> 01:20:28.000
to Washington, and we know how
Washington is. They're pretty damn good.
1221
01:20:28.039 --> 01:20:32.960
I'm going to tell you something This
is a frigging huge game. For a
1222
01:20:33.039 --> 01:20:36.039
matter of fact, it's bigger for
Washington. Now, why you knew what
1223
01:20:36.119 --> 01:20:42.479
you were getting with USC's defense.
Utah now sc scorts some points against Utah.
1224
01:20:42.520 --> 01:20:45.720
But I'm just telling you right now, Utah's defense hits different. Kyle
1225
01:20:45.760 --> 01:20:47.479
Whittingham will have them ready to play
after what happened. What was it Oregon
1226
01:20:47.560 --> 01:20:50.119
to beat them up in their building
a couple of weeks ago? Utah,
1227
01:20:51.159 --> 01:20:54.279
Oh, that's right, and they
were at college game day, was there?
1228
01:20:54.359 --> 01:20:59.039
Right? This will be Kyle Whittingham
will have a loud message sent Washington's
1229
01:20:59.079 --> 01:21:01.840
gonna have to play great football to
beating It'll be it'll be a physical slug
1230
01:21:01.920 --> 01:21:05.840
fest and take care of that business. Yeah. And then all right,
1231
01:21:06.520 --> 01:21:10.239
last one before we get to the
top of the hour, Michigan at Penn
1232
01:21:10.359 --> 01:21:14.119
State. I know we hit on
it briefly last segment, but in all
1233
01:21:14.199 --> 01:21:18.000
serious since Penn State the number ten
team in the land hosting Michigan eleven am
1234
01:21:18.159 --> 01:21:21.640
kickoff with everything going on with Michigan, now they get to get back on
1235
01:21:21.720 --> 01:21:25.680
the field and kind of escape reality. And that's why I think it's that
1236
01:21:25.800 --> 01:21:29.760
that's a place on the field is
three hours of where you can get away
1237
01:21:29.800 --> 01:21:31.800
from the real stuff and you can
go to I don't want to say safe
1238
01:21:31.840 --> 01:21:34.840
place, but you get my point
right before you operate out of I think
1239
01:21:34.920 --> 01:21:39.000
their message will be we're going to
whoop your ass just to Penn State's really
1240
01:21:39.000 --> 01:21:40.640
good. I've been telling you all
year long. I think they were a
1241
01:21:40.680 --> 01:21:45.439
sneaky national title type team. Their
defense will their defense will keep them in
1242
01:21:45.520 --> 01:21:47.960
it. This could be a like
twenty seventeen fistfight. It really could.
1243
01:21:48.479 --> 01:21:53.479
But I still think Michigan. I'm
still thinking Michigan can beat them by a
1244
01:21:53.520 --> 01:21:55.800
touchdown. I think it's gonna be
a fun game to watch. And then
1245
01:21:55.880 --> 01:21:59.560
one more Texas. When you were
set to return for the Horns, they
1246
01:21:59.640 --> 01:22:02.520
traveled TCU. Yeah. I guess
this will give is a danger game because
1247
01:22:02.520 --> 01:22:06.239
your quarterback's coming back and you don't
know how you know the health where he's
1248
01:22:06.279 --> 01:22:10.520
at right now, guests to pronounce
fit, but when he what's going to
1249
01:22:10.560 --> 01:22:13.800
take to get him in his rhythm? But obviously the passing game increases with
1250
01:22:14.279 --> 01:22:17.800
Quinn yours and Texas has to run
the table to have a chance. Still,
1251
01:22:17.880 --> 01:22:24.439
no manager hired for the Houston Astros
is Brad Ausmis a serious contender.
1252
01:22:24.760 --> 01:22:27.199

hired a manager yet? That would
be a no. No. They have
1284
01:25:08.399 --> 01:25:14.119
not. They have not. Not
sure what's taken so long, but hey,
1285
01:25:14.479 --> 01:25:19.000

better poker face? I mean,
you know, Ray Montgomery two years of
1291
01:25:45.079 --> 01:25:47.520
coaching in the big leagues. Let's
just hire him as our freaking manager.
1292
01:25:47.600 --> 01:25:53.920
Why not? Why not? Just
because he's Bagwell's buddy. Whoa, whoa.
1293
01:25:54.119 --> 01:25:57.880
So you're gonna hold Ray, You're
gonna keep Ray. Why are you
1294
01:25:58.000 --> 01:26:00.399
keeping the man down? I'm not
keeping him down. You keep the man
1295
01:26:00.479 --> 01:26:08.880
down. You know what this tells. This tells me I can only imagine
1296
01:26:08.880 --> 01:26:16.720
if you miss you hate white managers. I don't basic. I don't want
1297
01:26:16.720 --> 01:26:19.439
a basic white dude is my manager? Well that's about all of them,
1298
01:26:19.960 --> 01:26:27.000
Brad Austin's basic white dude, dude. If you want to convention boomer white
1299
01:26:27.039 --> 01:26:30.399
dude, if you want a convention
of basic white dudes, grab some of
1300
01:26:30.439 --> 01:26:32.159
the managers in Major League Baseball and
go to Iowa and have a convention.
1301
01:26:32.520 --> 01:26:34.960
You won't. You wouldn't be able
to tell that any of those guys are
1302
01:26:35.039 --> 01:26:41.000
managers. Do you do manage?
Uh? Home depot? Right, You're
1303
01:26:41.079 --> 01:26:43.319
right. Don't try to spice it
up, dude. I saw you Low's
1304
01:26:43.399 --> 01:26:47.640
last night speaking of which do you
gotta go home? But home deep loads.
1305
01:26:47.680 --> 01:26:50.399
But that that's like I'm like a
kidney candy stord walking. I don't
1306
01:26:50.399 --> 01:26:53.680
even know what I'm looking for half
the time you walk in the brick down.
1307
01:26:53.880 --> 01:26:57.640
But yeah, I go in wanting
one thing and come out with forty.
1308
01:26:57.680 --> 01:26:59.800
It's like Target. So it's like
I was gonna say, it's a
1309
01:26:59.800 --> 01:27:02.680
base a white girl when she goes
to Target. Whoa what? Everybody knows
1310
01:27:02.720 --> 01:27:05.199
that's the truth. Come on,
now, you gotta so why you gotta
1311
01:27:05.239 --> 01:27:10.640
go b w G basic white girl? Oh can I be bl? What's
1312
01:27:10.680 --> 01:27:15.119
BBL? What'd you say? Yeah? BBL basic white girl? Right,
1313
01:27:15.159 --> 01:27:16.600
you said a bw GEN has not
to be confused with the BBL. Oh
1314
01:27:16.720 --> 01:27:19.279
got you right? Okay, you
know what BBL is. I believe I
1315
01:27:19.359 --> 01:27:23.319
do triple. You know what that
is? You knows that? Then?
1316
01:27:23.520 --> 01:27:27.239
Okay, more pass on a BBL. By the way, it's a Brazilian
1317
01:27:27.319 --> 01:27:30.319
butt lift. Yeah, don't they
don't know the acronym. Well, when
1318
01:27:30.319 --> 01:27:32.880
the when the ass, when the
ass is bigger than the body, and
1319
01:27:32.960 --> 01:27:38.479
it's act and it's and it's it's
manufactured, there's nothing hard to do another
1320
01:27:38.600 --> 01:27:42.520
worse and finding a chick that's got
a big, huge BBL and then chicken
1321
01:27:42.600 --> 01:27:44.560
legs. Yeah, but you also
you go up and hit it. You
1322
01:27:44.680 --> 01:27:47.199
hit like a steel plate. Not
good, okay, anyway, when it
1323
01:27:47.279 --> 01:27:50.520
sticks out wider than anyway, Yeah, I digress. Yeah, when they
1324
01:27:50.560 --> 01:27:54.880
have to buy I'm not talking about
someboy who's just big, right, I'm
1325
01:27:54.880 --> 01:27:58.479
talking about those who forced like four
extra asses on their ask. We got
1326
01:27:58.560 --> 01:28:00.720
it manufactured, right, I'd like
to buy a plane ticket. You mean
1327
01:28:00.840 --> 01:28:04.319
three of them? Yeah? Across
the row across the road. Yeah for
1328
01:28:04.359 --> 01:28:08.680
them Cheeks. Yeah, man,
hard pass on a BBL man, let's
1329
01:28:08.680 --> 01:28:14.039
stick with I'll tell you what.
I'll endorse one. He of course you
1330
01:28:14.119 --> 01:28:16.800
will. But back to your basic
white guy thing. Uh huh yeah yeah.
1331
01:28:17.720 --> 01:28:24.520
Did you say Austmas or Rey Ray, Ray Ray or Bradley. I'm
1332
01:28:24.520 --> 01:28:26.479
going to say neither one of them
get the job. I'm going to take
1333
01:28:26.479 --> 01:28:30.359
a flyer and say Max Venable gets
a job. Will I mean Will Vina
1334
01:28:30.479 --> 01:28:32.560
Yeah, I was thinking of there's
there there's a player named Max Vinable that
1335
01:28:33.039 --> 01:28:38.039
I actually when I actually did a
little search on Vinible last night. I
1336
01:28:38.079 --> 01:28:40.399
mean I know who he is.
Yeah, yeah, but I did a
1337
01:28:40.399 --> 01:28:43.760
search and the name Max Vnable came
up to Yes, Will Venable at in
1338
01:28:44.000 --> 01:28:48.479
uh Bruce Bochie's dugout as well.
So there was some reports by Sports Illustrated
1339
01:28:48.800 --> 01:28:54.760
in the middle of October that mentioned
that Will Venable said he was not leaving
1340
01:28:55.640 --> 01:29:00.560
the Rangers for another manager job that
was prior to this job coming open.
1341
01:29:00.359 --> 01:29:03.920
This is the Astros, isn't the
Brewers, this isn't the Angels, this
1342
01:29:04.079 --> 01:29:10.079
isn't the Cubs. We're talking about
the Houston Astros here. So well,
1343
01:29:10.159 --> 01:29:13.359
just can they afford to be more
patient because they are the Houston Astros and
1344
01:29:13.479 --> 01:29:15.920
they win and they've got players that
the managers just a piece of it.
1345
01:29:16.000 --> 01:29:19.520
It's not the biggest piece. I
mean, you got Bob Nightingale. Obviously,
1346
01:29:19.520 --> 01:29:23.840
everybody knows who Bob Nightingale, USA
Today Sports, Major League Baseball columnists,
1347
01:29:23.840 --> 01:29:27.560
so forth, blah blah blah blah
blah. Uh. He said last
1348
01:29:27.680 --> 01:29:33.159
night that Brad Austmas is not a
serious contender, that his name has disappeared
1349
01:29:33.199 --> 01:29:38.479
lately. From those conversations, Bob
Nightingale thinks it's ultimately gonna be Joe a
1350
01:29:38.520 --> 01:29:42.399
Spotas. I think that's a fair
assumption. But I don't think that's a
1351
01:29:42.479 --> 01:29:45.520
reach. Let's put it that way. By any broadcaster or writer who says,
1352
01:29:45.520 --> 01:29:46.960
hey, it's going to be Joe
Spotta, well, I get it.
1353
01:29:47.359 --> 01:29:55.600
But then you got John Morossi of
MLB Network talking about Ray Montgomery again
1354
01:29:56.319 --> 01:29:59.560
just because he has ties to Dana
Brown and Jeff Bagwell up in the Northeast.
1355
01:30:00.560 --> 01:30:03.119
I don't understand it. I don't
understand it. Yeah, I don't
1356
01:30:03.159 --> 01:30:08.520
either. And that's why when somebody
starts listing cans. I mean, we
1357
01:30:08.560 --> 01:30:10.640
could say, right, Now you
could take a flyer and say, you
1358
01:30:10.720 --> 01:30:13.640
know what, like it's gonna be
will ventable. Let's just say that.
1359
01:30:14.039 --> 01:30:15.720
If it hits, you're oh,
man, you're great. Right. If
1360
01:30:15.800 --> 01:30:19.319
it doesn't, he just decided to
stay. I listen, do we really
1361
01:30:19.439 --> 01:30:23.800
know? No, do we really
know what they're looking for? Deeply?
1362
01:30:23.840 --> 01:30:26.600
I mean we know on the surface
what you want. You want to you
1363
01:30:26.680 --> 01:30:30.319
decide you want to go a little
younger, you want energy, great players,
1364
01:30:30.399 --> 01:30:33.800
maybe outside the building, possibly if
you stay inside. I think we
1365
01:30:33.920 --> 01:30:40.079
know what a good manager at least
you'd like. But you and I may
1366
01:30:40.119 --> 01:30:43.079
see that interview two different ways if
we're sitting in a room right, just
1367
01:30:43.159 --> 01:30:45.760
like they will so. I honestly, alls we're doing is speculating. It's
1368
01:30:45.760 --> 01:30:49.000
the what if card. I have
no idea. It could be a name
1369
01:30:49.039 --> 01:30:57.159
we have said, nobody saying who
knows? Not old but not thirty five?
1370
01:30:57.359 --> 01:31:00.520
Right, I have zero idea which
way they're going. It's it's this
1371
01:31:00.680 --> 01:31:05.000
safe pick, is to say,
Joe Aspata, Yeah, it's the safe
1372
01:31:05.039 --> 01:31:08.279
pick. But why does it take
it so long? I have no idea.
1373
01:31:09.000 --> 01:31:12.960
If you were a general manager,
you know about leadership and leading men
1374
01:31:13.079 --> 01:31:15.279
and teams and things like that if
you're a general manager, would you have
1375
01:31:15.279 --> 01:31:18.880
already hired somebody if if I found
the guy, I'm not letting the guy.
1376
01:31:18.960 --> 01:31:21.039
I've always said this, don't let
the guy leave the building. I
1377
01:31:21.119 --> 01:31:24.920
told him what we said here.
If you bring to Miko Rense, you
1378
01:31:24.920 --> 01:31:28.439
don't want to leave the building,
don't let him get a contract and have
1379
01:31:28.560 --> 01:31:30.079
it. Only thing that needs to
be on there is this signature. Have
1380
01:31:30.119 --> 01:31:31.720
it in place when he goes,
so when he gets on a plane,
1381
01:31:31.720 --> 01:31:35.239
he's going back home with contract and
hand sign So if that's the case,
1382
01:31:35.760 --> 01:31:40.479
I just and I don't believe they're
doing this, but I wouldn't take for
1383
01:31:40.560 --> 01:31:44.319
granted the situation. But the longer
it takes, it almost feels to me
1384
01:31:44.520 --> 01:31:47.880
like you're you're still searching, and
leadership's a big part of what they're doing.
1385
01:31:49.279 --> 01:31:53.199
And you know, you want a
great game manager and a guy that
1386
01:31:53.479 --> 01:31:57.359
players respond to, but don't take
for granted, and so you got to
1387
01:31:57.359 --> 01:32:00.039
find out who that is and and
tell you interview a guy face. I
1388
01:32:00.079 --> 01:32:03.119
don't see how we can sit back
here and tell you who the best candidate
1389
01:32:03.239 --> 01:32:08.239
is. We know because we're around
the spot of the most but I don't
1390
01:32:08.359 --> 01:32:14.439
know because he's here in Houston a
d E Houston, Houston, an iHeart

up in Cincinnati. All right,
let's talk. Astros have they hired a
1405
01:33:38.399 --> 01:33:45.720
manager yet that would be a no. No. They have not. Hey
1406
01:33:45.840 --> 01:33:47.600
have not not sure what's taken so
long, but hey, you know what,
1407
01:33:47.680 --> 01:33:55.560
We're gonna monitor it. Bradley Ausmus, here we go, John Rossi
1408
01:33:55.680 --> 01:34:02.319
by the way of MLB Network.
He mentioned Ray Montgomery again last night on
1409
01:34:02.479 --> 01:34:08.600
his hit from the GM Meetings.
Ray Montgomery, Ray Ray, and Bradley
1410
01:34:09.720 --> 01:34:12.960
Who you taking You want Ray Ray
at your poker match or you want Bradley
1411
01:34:13.520 --> 01:34:18.000
Ostmas who's got a better poker face? I mean, you know, Ray
1412
01:34:18.079 --> 01:34:20.479
Montgomery two years of coaching in the
big leagues. Let's just hire him as
1413
01:34:20.520 --> 01:34:25.720
our freaking manager. Why not?
Why not? Why not? Just because
1414
01:34:25.720 --> 01:34:30.000
he's Bagwell's buddy. Whoa whoa.
So you're gonna hold Ray, You're gonna
1415
01:34:30.039 --> 01:34:32.960
keep Ray. Why are you keeping
the man down? I'm not keeping him
1416
01:34:33.039 --> 01:34:38.840
down. You're keeping the man down. You know what this tells? This
1417
01:34:39.000 --> 01:34:48.760
tells me I can only imagine if
you miss you hate white managers, I
1418
01:34:48.760 --> 01:34:53.479
don't. I don't want a basic
white dude is my manager. Well that's
1419
01:34:53.520 --> 01:34:58.680
about all of them. Brad Ausman's
basic white dude. If you want a
1420
01:34:58.720 --> 01:35:02.560
convention boom or white dude. If
you want a convention of basic white dudes,
1421
01:35:02.720 --> 01:35:05.399
grab some of the managers in Major
League Baseball and go to Iowa and
1422
01:35:05.479 --> 01:35:09.279
have a convention. You won't.
You wouldn't be able to tell that any
1423
01:35:09.319 --> 01:35:13.680
of those guys are managers. Do
you do manage? H home depot?
1424
01:35:13.840 --> 01:35:15.479
Right? You're right, don't try
to spice it up, dude. I
1425
01:35:15.520 --> 01:35:20.199
saw you Low's last night, speaking
of which you gotta go home Lows,
1426
01:35:20.479 --> 01:35:24.439
but home deep or Lows. But
that that's like I'm like a kidney candy
1427
01:35:24.479 --> 01:35:26.600
stord walking. I don't even know
what I'm looking for half the time.
1428
01:35:26.640 --> 01:35:30.239
You walk in the brick down,
but I'm yeah, I go in wanting
1429
01:35:30.319 --> 01:35:31.840
one thing and come out with forty. It's like Target. So it's like
1430
01:35:32.039 --> 01:35:33.880
I was gonna say, it's like
a basic white girl when she goes to
1431
01:35:33.920 --> 01:35:38.359
Target. Whoa what? Everybody knows? That's the truth. Come on,
1432
01:35:38.439 --> 01:35:41.680
now, you gotta so why do
you gotta go b w G basic white
1433
01:35:41.720 --> 01:35:45.960

Yeah? BBL basic white girl?
Right? You said a BW genis
1435
01:35:49.199 --> 01:35:51.680
not to be confused with the BBL. Oh got you right? Okay,
1436
01:35:51.720 --> 01:35:55.279
you know what BBL is. I
believe I do triple You know what that
1437
01:35:55.399 --> 01:35:59.199
is? You know that? Then? Okay, we're passing on a BBL.
1438
01:35:59.239 --> 01:36:02.000
By the way, it's a Brazilian
butt lift. Yeah, they don't
1439
01:36:02.039 --> 01:36:04.720
know the acronym. Well, when
the when the ass, when the ass
1440
01:36:04.800 --> 01:36:10.439
is bigger than the body, and
it's act and it's and it's it's manufacturing.
1441
01:36:11.479 --> 01:36:14.439
Hard to do another worse and finding
a chick that's got a big,
1442
01:36:15.000 --> 01:36:17.039
huge BBL and then chicken legs.
Yeah, but you also you go up
1443
01:36:17.039 --> 01:36:19.800
and hit it. You hit like
a steel plate. Not good, okay,
1444
01:36:20.199 --> 01:36:24.560
anyway, when it sticks out wider
than anyway, Yeah, I digress.
1445
01:36:24.760 --> 01:36:27.399
Yeah, when they have to buy
I'm not talking about somebod who's just
1446
01:36:27.720 --> 01:36:30.720
big, right, I've talked about
those who forced like four extra asses on
1447
01:36:30.720 --> 01:36:34.119
their ask. Got it manufactured.
I'd like to buy a plane ticket.
1448
01:36:34.319 --> 01:36:38.880
You mean three of them? Yeah, across the row, across the road.
1449
01:36:38.920 --> 01:36:42.159
Yeah for them cheeks. Yeah,

1450
01:36:42.279 --> 01:36:46.800
Man's stick with I'll tell you what
I'll endorse one way, of course
1451
01:36:46.880 --> 01:36:50.119
you will. But back to your
basic white guy thing. Oh yeah,
1452
01:36:50.479 --> 01:36:57.000
yeah, did you say Ostmas or
Ray Ray, Ray Ray or Bradley.
1453
01:36:58.239 --> 01:37:00.359
I'm going to say neither one of
them get the job. I'm to take
1454
01:37:00.399 --> 01:37:03.000
a flyer and say Max Venable gets
a job. Will vine I mean Will
1455
01:37:03.039 --> 01:37:06.279
Vinall. Yeah, I was thinking
of there's there's a player named Max Vinable
1456
01:37:06.399 --> 01:37:11.880
that I actually when I I actually
did a little search on Vinible last night.
1457
01:37:11.880 --> 01:37:14.199
I mean I know who he is. Yeah, yeah's but I did
1458
01:37:14.239 --> 01:37:16.479
a search and the name Max Vnable
came up to Yes, Will Venable at
1459
01:37:16.600 --> 01:37:21.640
in uh Bruce Bochie's dugout as well. So there was some reports by Sports
1460
01:37:21.680 --> 01:37:28.000
Illustrated in the middle of October that
mentioned that Will Venable said he was not
1461
01:37:28.279 --> 01:37:33.439
leaving the Rangers for another manager job
that was prior to this job coming open.
1462
01:37:34.239 --> 01:37:36.840
This is the Astros, isn't the
Brewers, This isn't the Angels,
1463
01:37:38.760 --> 01:37:43.960
this isn't the Cubs. We're talking
about the Houston Astros here, So well,
1464
01:37:44.039 --> 01:37:45.760
just can they afford to be more
patient because they are the Houston Astros
1465
01:37:46.199 --> 01:37:49.800
and they win and they've got players
that the managers just a piece of it.
1466
01:37:49.840 --> 01:37:53.039
It's not the biggest piece. I
mean, you got you got Bob
1467
01:37:53.119 --> 01:37:57.319
Nightingale. Obviously everybody knows who Bob
Nightingale. USA Today Sports Major League Baseball
1468
01:37:57.319 --> 01:38:00.760
columnists, so forth, blah blah
blah blah blah. Uh. He said
1469
01:38:00.199 --> 01:38:06.520
last night that Brad Austmas is not
a serious contender, that his name has
1470
01:38:06.560 --> 01:38:12.319
disappeared lately from those conversations. Bob
Nightingale thinks it's ultimately going to be Joe
1471
01:38:12.399 --> 01:38:15.279
Spotas. I think that's a fair
assumption. But I don't think that's a
1472
01:38:15.399 --> 01:38:18.399
reach. Let's put it that way. By any broadcaster or writer who says,
1473
01:38:18.399 --> 01:38:20.840
hey, it's going to be Joe
Spotta, well, I get it.
1474
01:38:21.239 --> 01:38:29.479
But then you got John Morosi of
MLB Network talking about Ray Montgomery again
1475
01:38:30.199 --> 01:38:32.439
just because he has ties to Dana
Brown and Jeff Bagwell up in the Northeast.
1476
01:38:33.760 --> 01:38:38.000
I don't understand it. I don't
understand it. Yeah, I don't
1477
01:38:38.039 --> 01:38:42.399
either. And that's why when somebody
starts listing cans. I mean, we
1478
01:38:42.439 --> 01:38:44.520
could say, right now, you
could take a flyer and say, you
1479
01:38:44.600 --> 01:38:46.520
know what, like it's gonna be
will ventable. Let's just say that.
1480
01:38:46.920 --> 01:38:49.720
If it hits, you're, oh
man, you're great. Right If it
1481
01:38:49.800 --> 01:38:54.359
doesn't, he just decided to stay. I listen, do we really know?
1482
01:38:55.199 --> 01:38:57.760
No, do we really know what
they're looking for? Deeply? I
1483
01:38:57.840 --> 01:39:00.479
mean, we know on the surface
what you want. You want, you
1484
01:39:00.560 --> 01:39:04.199
decide you want to go a little
younger, you want energy, bildlayers,
1485
01:39:04.279 --> 01:39:08.840
maybe outside the building, possibly if
you stay inside the I think we know
1486
01:39:08.920 --> 01:39:13.720
what what a good manager at least
you'd like. But the you and I
1487
01:39:13.840 --> 01:39:15.760
may see that interview two different ways. If we're sitting in a room right,
1488
01:39:15.920 --> 01:39:19.439
just like they will so. I
honestly alls we're doing is speculating.
1489
01:39:19.479 --> 01:39:23.680
It's the what if card. I
have no idea. It could be a
1490
01:39:23.760 --> 01:39:29.039
name we have me said no,
nobody saying Jo who knows not old but
1491
01:39:29.199 --> 01:39:32.439
not thirty five? Right, I
have zero idea which way they're going.
1492
01:39:33.760 --> 01:39:38.840
It's it's this safe pick is to
say Joe Aspata. Yeah, that is
1493
01:39:38.920 --> 01:39:41.039
the safe pick. It's the safe
pick. But why does it take it
1494
01:39:41.119 --> 01:39:44.000
so long? I have no idea. If you were a general manager,
1495
01:39:44.039 --> 01:39:47.039
you you know about leadership and leading
men and teams and things like that.
1496
01:39:47.800 --> 01:39:50.880
If you're a general manager, would
you have already hired somebody? If if
1497
01:39:50.920 --> 01:39:54.560
I found the guy, I'm not
letting the guy. I've always said this,
1498
01:39:54.640 --> 01:39:56.920
don't let the guy leave the building. I told him what we said
1499
01:39:56.920 --> 01:39:59.399
here. If if you bring to
Miko Ransey, don't want to leave the
1500
01:39:59.439 --> 01:40:02.399
building. Don't let him get a
contract and have it. Only thing that
1501
01:40:02.520 --> 01:40:04.600
needs to be on there is this
signature. Have it in place when he
1502
01:40:04.600 --> 01:40:06.279
goes, so when he gets on
a plane, he's going back home with
1503
01:40:06.319 --> 01:40:11.920
contract and hand sign So if that's
the case, I just and I don't
1504
01:40:12.000 --> 01:40:15.199
believe they're doing this. But I
wouldn't take for granted the situation. But
1505
01:40:15.359 --> 01:40:19.159
the longer it takes, it almost
feels to me like you're still searching.
1506
01:40:19.840 --> 01:40:25.319
And leadership's a big part of what
they're doing. And you know you want
1507
01:40:25.359 --> 01:40:29.920
a great game manager and a guy
that players respond to, but don't take
1508
01:40:30.000 --> 01:40:31.159
for granted. And so you got
to find out who that is. And
1509
01:40:31.720 --> 01:40:34.920
till you interview a guy face to
face, I don't see how we can
1510
01:40:35.000 --> 01:40:39.079
sit back here and tell you who
the best candidate is. We know because
1511
01:40:39.119 --> 01:40:43.800
we're around the spot of the most
but I don't know because he's here in
1512
01:40:43.880 --> 01:40:48.279
Houston. I don't know what the
one the number one trait they want a
1513
01:40:48.359 --> 01:40:51.239
manager And in an interview, a
guy could be really good on the surface,
1514
01:40:51.279 --> 01:40:54.680
cool in the interview and you're like, this dude, can't do this.
1515
01:40:55.439 --> 01:40:57.720
I can't I'm not talking about spot
anybody, So I got to move
1516
01:40:57.800 --> 01:41:00.199
on. So the longer it takes, it feels to me like that they
1517
01:41:00.279 --> 01:41:04.880
still haven't settled in on somebody.
But your team's good enough to just just
1518
01:41:05.000 --> 01:41:08.640
get a guy who can lead and
the rest will take care of itself.
1519
01:41:09.119 --> 01:41:13.439
It's it's just kind of as here
we are. It's what great end game
1520
01:41:13.560 --> 01:41:16.439
manager too? Yeah, No,
November tenth, do they have a manager
1521
01:41:16.520 --> 01:41:29.079
by Monday? You won't know by
monday. So as we get off Thanksgiving,
1522
01:41:29.520 --> 01:41:33.119
damn, really you should if you
were two weeks from yesterday, right
1523
01:41:33.199 --> 01:41:36.039
right, if you were Joe's Bottle, would you give him a hard deadline?
1524
01:41:38.600 --> 01:41:42.399
Hard to give somebody a deadline when, well, you give a hard
1525
01:41:42.439 --> 01:41:45.520
deadline maybe if somebody else offered you
a job. If he hasn't been offered
1526
01:41:45.560 --> 01:41:46.840
a job, he had no position
to hard deadline anybody. Yeah. The
1527
01:41:46.880 --> 01:41:49.239
only thing we've heard about Joe's Bottle
for other teams is that the Brewers.
1528
01:41:49.279 --> 01:41:51.640
I mean, he could lead to
be an assistant. If he's not offered
1529
01:41:51.680 --> 01:41:56.239
a head a managerial job, he
go somewhere else. But you don't really
1530
01:41:56.279 --> 01:42:00.560
hold a lot of cards in the
negotiations. If nobody else is off of
1531
01:42:00.560 --> 01:42:01.600
your job. You could says I'm
getting a hard deadline. If it's not
1532
01:42:01.640 --> 01:42:05.840
by next Friday, then I'm out. Okay if you don't, if they
1533
01:42:05.880 --> 01:42:09.560
didn't want him, okay, If
you do want him, then you're gonna
1534
01:42:09.600 --> 01:42:13.880
consider it. But unless you got
to see negotiations, and leverage is when
1535
01:42:13.920 --> 01:42:16.079
you got more than one offer,
or at least create the perception that there's
1536
01:42:16.119 --> 01:42:19.079
more than one offer. But if
you don't, you're the bench coach.
1537
01:42:19.119 --> 01:42:23.920
You're waiting for your first opportunity.
No, the leverage doesn't sit with Joe
1538
01:42:23.920 --> 01:42:26.880
A spot of the leverage shits with
the Astros until they make a decision.
1539
01:42:26.920 --> 01:42:30.159
And we still don't know. From
a distance. Speculation's great, but I
1540
01:42:30.199 --> 01:42:35.000
don't know what deep down what Dana
Brown really wants in that from a manager,
1541
01:42:35.079 --> 01:42:39.600
we can the traits we all want, but is there something that he's
1542
01:42:39.640 --> 01:42:42.960
looking for extra special and Jim Crane
that we don't know about. I don't
1543
01:42:42.960 --> 01:42:45.760
know. He could want Ray Ray
very well could If the name's being mentioned
1544
01:42:45.960 --> 01:42:51.000
somehow, some way, somebody brought
it up, right, you'd think yeah,
1545
01:42:51.479 --> 01:42:56.800
or it's just guessing. I'm not
yeah, But to guess Ray Montgomery
1546
01:42:57.079 --> 01:43:00.399
that's a name that no one's heard
of. That means someone has mentioned him.
1547
01:43:00.520 --> 01:43:03.720
So that's why I said why I
said, I believe that if somebody's
1548
01:43:03.800 --> 01:43:10.159
mentioning it is it is there a
reason to think that maybe somebody's at last
1549
01:43:10.239 --> 01:43:13.319
at least brought it up in a
meeting. Yeah, who knows. I
1550
01:43:13.359 --> 01:43:15.720
don't know. I don't either.
That's just figured by now we would have
1551
01:43:16.760 --> 01:43:19.359
I don't at least heard some other
candidates that have been interviewed. Well,
1552
01:43:19.359 --> 01:43:23.760
it's only been Joe spotted so far, so I have to keep watching that
1553
01:43:23.840 --> 01:43:28.399
obviously as we go through the weekend. Who could the Astros be rumored to
1554
01:43:28.520 --> 01:43:30.199
go after? He's a pitcher.
You'll never guess. That's next Sports Talk
1555
01:43:30.239 --> 01:43:36.239

Cracis has both trying to sell fasting for

01:45:55.000 --> 01:45:57.760
the right time. Shoot Musty,
you don't bring it for the right time.
1584

Last I'm leaving. Believe it.
We're gonna have. NFL insider Aaron

Wilson joined the show next segment to

Orleans Pelicans tonight at Toyota Center seven pm,

bad starts right here on seven nine
1589
01:46:21.000 --> 01:46:26.199
of your home four Rockets. Basketball's
got the phone line seven one three two
1590
01:46:26.239 --> 01:46:29.439
P two five seven nights, go
to Johnny Johnny, good morning, what's
1591
01:46:29.520 --> 01:46:32.840
up. So yeah, I was
watching ESPN last night. They're talking about
1592
01:46:33.199 --> 01:46:39.520
who's in the MVP conversation in the
NFL, and they're talking about Burrow that
1593
01:46:39.640 --> 01:46:42.600
I'm asking myself, how was a
C. D. Stroudin in the conversation
1594
01:46:42.800 --> 01:46:45.119
with what he's done this season?
Is it just because he's a rookie he
1595
01:46:45.199 --> 01:46:49.800
can't be in the knicks that something
like that. Oh, he's he's in
1596
01:46:49.920 --> 01:46:54.920
the conversation. He's a clear that
of I was looking at some uh some
1597
01:46:55.079 --> 01:47:00.279
mid season voting awards and some former
NFL head coaches and guys who play and
1598
01:47:00.479 --> 01:47:04.640
some experts in their field when it
said it had the candidates and who's shoe
1599
01:47:04.680 --> 01:47:10.479
Who's the winner, and then the
others receiving votes, and the only one
1600
01:47:10.560 --> 01:47:14.119
that was unanimous was Offensive Rookie of
the Year of all the awards, and
1601
01:47:14.279 --> 01:47:18.920
that was for CJ. Strouding.
So he is, he's fourteen touchdowns,
1602
01:47:18.960 --> 01:47:25.439
one pick. They go beat Cincinnati
and get themselves midway point two games,
1603
01:47:25.439 --> 01:47:29.399
you know, a ten games in
in two weeks, nine games this week,
1604
01:47:29.560 --> 01:47:31.760
go in and beat Cincinnati. That
would be five wins over plus five
1605
01:47:31.840 --> 01:47:35.039
hundred teams and he puts up a
game and we walk off the field and
1606
01:47:35.079 --> 01:47:40.319
he outplays Burrow. The MVP talk
will start this week. It's already started,
1607
01:47:40.359 --> 01:47:43.399
the whispers, and it's really not
that important. I think people that
1608
01:47:43.479 --> 01:47:46.399
are watching understand what he's doing on
a team, and I think a lot
1609
01:47:46.439 --> 01:47:49.079
of it has to do with it. There's people's perception. The Texans are
1610
01:47:49.119 --> 01:47:53.800
still like their shock that they got
four wins. How did this happen?
1611
01:47:53.920 --> 01:47:59.520
So the shock is still a little
bit ahead of the constant CJ. Stroud
1612
01:47:59.560 --> 01:48:02.479
talk. You saw it pick up
this week after last week's performance. And
1613
01:48:02.680 --> 01:48:05.079
if he does something like that,
it won't be four seventy five, I
1614
01:48:05.119 --> 01:48:08.720
don't think. But he goes out
and has a good game and beats Joe
1615
01:48:08.760 --> 01:48:14.760
Burrow in his building, he will
quickly catapult in Vegas odds. I assure
1616
01:48:14.760 --> 01:48:17.359
you they'll put him in the top
five because that'll put them in playoff hopes.
1617
01:48:17.399 --> 01:48:21.640
Now at five and four, he
will have outdueled a guy who's been
1618
01:48:21.760 --> 01:48:26.000
to the Final four back to back
years and also is in a Super Bowl
1619
01:48:26.319 --> 01:48:29.520
and largely considered, you know,
playing as hot as any quarterback in the
1620
01:48:29.600 --> 01:48:33.840
league. Along with Lamar and a
couple others. So I am I think
1621
01:48:33.880 --> 01:48:36.239
C. J. Stroud is mentioned. I just don't. I don't think
1622
01:48:36.319 --> 01:48:41.399
right now that that's the conversation that
people here want to have. Yet fans
1623
01:48:41.479 --> 01:48:43.800
we do. I'm with you,
man, I'm with you one hundred percent.
1624
01:48:43.880 --> 01:48:49.159
But I think that the conversation will
get loud now that all the attention
1625
01:48:49.239 --> 01:48:51.840
has started. There's a lot of
attention now focused on this matchup. They
1626
01:48:51.880 --> 01:48:56.079
go in there and win, different
story, and he will be mentioned.
1627
01:48:56.119 --> 01:48:59.239
I already hear whispers of it,
but they will become roars if he goes
1628
01:48:59.279 --> 01:49:01.359
and beats Burrow and he's great football. Yeah, of course it's going to
1629
01:49:01.399 --> 01:49:06.800
be. Patrick Mahomes will be in
the conversation. Jalen Hurts, Lamar Jackson.
1630
01:49:08.439 --> 01:49:12.000
I even saw some odds for TUA, but I think he's kind of
1631
01:49:12.760 --> 01:49:15.239
gone down a little bit, and
then Joe Burrow, his odds are starting
1632
01:49:15.279 --> 01:49:17.800
to climb up more and more.
Right now, the leader in the clubhouse
1633
01:49:17.920 --> 01:49:24.119
is Lamar Jackson. By most accounts, that just is and and rightfully so.
1634
01:49:24.520 --> 01:49:26.640
Yeah, and you look at Jalen
Hurts is in the top three.
1635
01:49:26.760 --> 01:49:32.520
Yeah, you look statistically just yards
obviously two is going to be at the
1636
01:49:32.560 --> 01:49:36.640
top, and it's Sam how Patrick
Mahomes, Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts,
1637
01:49:36.720 --> 01:49:40.399
Kirk Cousins, even though Kirk Cousins
has missed time. Then c J.
1638
01:49:40.560 --> 01:49:44.439
Stroud, he's number seven right now? Twenty two seventy is how many yards
1639
01:49:44.479 --> 01:49:46.720
passing? I think that's fair.
Lamar Jackson, Oh, we looked at
1640
01:49:46.720 --> 01:49:49.520
this a couple of days ago.
Him and Trevor Lawrence have almost identical stats,
1641
01:49:50.399 --> 01:49:54.960
and Lawrence is like tenth, Yeah, Lawrence, so actually Lawrence as
1642
01:49:55.000 --> 01:49:59.359
far as yards passing, Lawrence,
Trevor Lawrence is fifteenth. Lamar Jackson is
1643
01:49:59.399 --> 01:50:03.279
fourteenth and fifty four yards more.
MVP thoughts right being your top ten.
1644
01:50:03.359 --> 01:50:08.319
But Stroud jumps in if he's not
by the time this weekend's over, if
1645
01:50:08.319 --> 01:50:13.159
he plays well and they beat Cincinnati, and let's see touchdowns. Tua has
1646
01:50:13.319 --> 01:50:19.199
nineteen but seven interceptions, Josh Allen
eighteen nine interceptions, Patrick Mahomes seventeen tds,
1647
01:50:19.880 --> 01:50:26.039
eight interceptions. Russell Wilson thrown for
sixteen and four picks. Jalen Hurts
1648
01:50:26.079 --> 01:50:30.399
thrown for fifteen and eight picks.
There're CJ. Stroud fourteen touchdowns one pick.
1649
01:50:31.279 --> 01:50:33.920
Pretty pressed man when you stack it
up against some of the names that
1650
01:50:33.960 --> 01:50:40.199
I just mentioned, Dak Prescott thirteen
touchdowns, five interceptions, Justin Herbert thirteen
1651
01:50:40.239 --> 01:50:44.720
and four, and then Jared Goff
at twelve and five. Joe Burrow of
1652
01:50:44.760 --> 01:50:48.359
course, his numbers are starting to
tick up. Twelve touchdowns, four interceptions
1653
01:50:48.640 --> 01:50:51.720
and a lot of that's that's that
was tough start for him. He's been
1654
01:50:51.760 --> 01:50:55.840
really hot lately. Why is it
that they start so slow every year?
1655
01:50:55.960 --> 01:50:59.399
I have no idea. Yeah,
I don't know what it is. But
1656
01:50:59.600 --> 01:51:01.279
the first month of the season,
of the first two three weeks or not
1657
01:51:01.439 --> 01:51:05.159
usually his favorite in September, you
skip him October and the guy may play
1658
01:51:05.199 --> 01:51:09.199
perfect football the rest of the year, but they struggle. But one thing
1659
01:51:09.279 --> 01:51:11.720
there, they are resilient, so
as he I've never seen the guy get
1660
01:51:12.479 --> 01:51:15.159
flustered yet in his career. It's
pretty impressive. Yeah, it's really impressive.
1661
01:51:15.479 --> 01:51:20.399
Some of the games this weekend San
Francisco at Jacksonville. Can San Francisco
1662
01:51:20.560 --> 01:51:26.359
figure it out and get back in
the win column taking on a pretty talented
1663
01:51:26.439 --> 01:51:29.199
Jacksonville team. Yeah, and that
game's in Jacksonville, he says, Yeah,
1664
01:51:29.319 --> 01:51:31.279
and that is it's an early game
too. Right. Are doing game
1665
01:51:31.399 --> 01:51:34.439
yep. I'm gonna tell you.
If it doesn't get worked out by the
1666
01:51:34.520 --> 01:51:38.840
forty nine ers and they don't play
well, things are going to start to
1667
01:51:38.920 --> 01:51:44.680
get awfully dicey with the talk in
Northern California. They went from by a
1668
01:51:44.720 --> 01:51:46.640
lot of us. They were dominants
we had the first month of the season.
1669
01:51:47.000 --> 01:51:50.520
Perty was in two over the MVPs
of the league. Now you look
1670
01:51:50.600 --> 01:51:55.039
back and now people are questioned Perty
because he's turned the ball over a couple
1671
01:51:55.079 --> 01:51:58.319
times. He had. His numbers
are still good and Jacksonville's now becoming one
1672
01:51:58.319 --> 01:52:00.479
of the best teams in the league
with a chance at homefield answer out the
1673
01:52:00.479 --> 01:52:02.960
playoffs in the AFC. They keep
this up. This is a huge game
1674
01:52:03.039 --> 01:52:06.079
for the forty nine ers, and
it's for Jacksonville to kick somebody in the
1675
01:52:06.159 --> 01:52:11.199
mouth at home and say we are
You need to start putting us in the
1676
01:52:11.279 --> 01:52:14.960
talk with the big boys. This
is a monster game for the forty nine
1677
01:52:15.039 --> 01:52:17.159
ers and they and they're coming off
of bye week. They should be ready
1678
01:52:17.199 --> 01:52:21.520
for this. Another good one.
The Cleveland Browns at the Baltimore Ravens AFC
1679
01:52:21.640 --> 01:52:30.439
North Battle. I give me Baltimore. You don't believe I until Cleveland proves
1680
01:52:30.479 --> 01:52:33.119
to me that they can do it
consistently. Now they are, like I
1681
01:52:33.199 --> 01:52:38.720
said, They've got some talented players, and Deshaun Watson's capable of a monster
1682
01:52:38.880 --> 01:52:43.079
game. But I'll take Lamar over
DeShawn and I And in Baltimore, I
1683
01:52:43.239 --> 01:52:45.640
like the way Baltimore's playing. Although
I think it's going to be a good
1684
01:52:45.640 --> 01:52:47.439
game. I don't think there's a
blowout written on this. And if Cleveland
1685
01:52:47.439 --> 01:52:50.439
plays their potential, Baltimore is gonna
have their hands full, I can sure,
1686
01:52:50.439 --> 01:52:53.680
as He'll tell you that. And
then outside of that, there's really,
1687
01:52:53.920 --> 01:52:57.800
I mean, not the many good
games this weekend. There's three or
1688
01:52:57.800 --> 01:53:00.399
four that work. Yeah, Atlanta
at Arizona. Kyler Murray is gonna make
1689
01:53:00.439 --> 01:53:04.600
his return. The Giants without Daniel
Jones, they suck. They're taking on
1690
01:53:04.640 --> 01:53:09.399
the Dallas Cowboys. Watched it.
Seattle could be a sneaky good matchup.
1691
01:53:12.159 --> 01:53:15.079
Yeah, it could. It could. I mean, Seattle wants to win
1692
01:53:15.119 --> 01:53:16.640
the division. It could be.
I think that you could see some fun
1693
01:53:16.680 --> 01:53:24.159
offense in that game for sure.
Detroit at Los Angeles Chargers, that'll be
1694
01:53:24.199 --> 01:53:27.119
a fun game. Yeah, I
mean it's a I mean Dan Campbell right
1695
01:53:27.119 --> 01:53:29.239
now, is a leading candidate for
Coach of the Year by a lot of
1696
01:53:29.279 --> 01:53:32.920
accounts. And Brandon Staley and the
Chargers, to me are is still a
1697
01:53:32.960 --> 01:53:35.479
team that's I don't know what to
think about them, But I read this
1698
01:53:35.560 --> 01:53:39.479
time every year, I'm saying the
same thing, right, So this is
1699
01:53:39.560 --> 01:53:42.960
a This seems to be a performance. It could be fun to watch with
1700
01:53:43.079 --> 01:53:45.520
Golf and Herbert. Yeah, yeah, could be a lot of offense in
1701
01:53:45.600 --> 01:53:47.239
that one. Other than that,
just really, I mean, there's not
1702
01:53:47.359 --> 01:53:50.600
much kind of a boring slating games
this Sunday, Well you get about four
1703
01:53:50.680 --> 01:53:54.279
or five each week and other than
that just got to you just gotta gut

01:53:54.319 --> 01:53:56.680
your way through it. Yeah,
well still at the end of the day's

1716
01:54:51.960 --> 01:54:57.560
we're gonna welcome in NFL insider Aaron
Wilson to talk Texans. We sure
1717
01:54:57.640 --> 01:55:00.760
are, Addie Aaron Wilson on Twitter, Sport seven ninety dot com for all
1718
01:55:00.840 --> 01:55:04.199
his great stuff among other things,
not just the Texans all across the league.
1719
01:55:04.199 --> 01:55:08.479
But we got him here and he
joins us as always on a Friday.
1720
01:55:08.720 --> 01:55:12.720
All Right, have we established what
the identity for the Texans is and
1721
01:55:12.760 --> 01:55:14.720
we're going to live with that the
rest of the year. My man and
1722
01:55:14.760 --> 01:55:18.479
I think we know what that is. Right there? Are passing team,
1723
01:55:18.680 --> 01:55:25.560
yeah, and the TJ Strads team
first last and always. The running game
1724
01:55:25.720 --> 01:55:30.000
is not worked, regardless of whether
it's Devin Singletary Damian Pearce is the primary
1725
01:55:30.119 --> 01:55:34.479
back right now, it's Devin Singletary
due to Damian piers At ankle injury.
1726
01:55:34.600 --> 01:55:40.880
So yeah, the direction changes,
and for Bobby Slowick, the offensive coordinator
1727
01:55:41.800 --> 01:55:45.680
for the Texans, you have to
adapt, and I think he he's been
1728
01:55:45.039 --> 01:55:50.680
much faster. Maybe some of this
is just what he's like. And also
1729
01:55:51.640 --> 01:55:57.520
a younger, first year offense coordinator
willing to make changes. I think that's
1730
01:55:57.600 --> 01:56:00.479
great. That's what you have to
do in football, and if you have
1731
01:56:00.600 --> 01:56:04.119
to, you know, adapt to
the times and otherwise you know, you
1732
01:56:04.199 --> 01:56:06.840
get left behind. And I think
that he's done a great job of that,
1733
01:56:08.039 --> 01:56:15.399
of just using what he has.
So you watch all these routes and
1734
01:56:15.680 --> 01:56:18.680
the way that they set up these
plays, I think it's outstanding. The
1735
01:56:18.800 --> 01:56:24.479
more you slow them down and watch
it again and again. You know the
1736
01:56:24.560 --> 01:56:30.039
way that for example, on Tankdale's
first touchdown, the way that the post
1737
01:56:30.319 --> 01:56:33.960
was just meant to occupy the safety
and then CJ. Stroud, well pulp
1738
01:56:34.000 --> 01:56:38.920
take with his shoulders, throw the
safety with his eyes, and then a
1739
01:56:39.000 --> 01:56:43.000
perfect football to Tinkdale. That throw
probably hasn't been talked about as much as
1740
01:56:43.039 --> 01:56:46.279
the game winner, but man,
we're throw. Yeah. I love the
1741
01:56:46.399 --> 01:56:50.000
throw that set up the game winner
just as much that that smashed d that
1742
01:56:50.119 --> 01:56:54.439
corner route that was flatten on a
deep turned into a sale route that he
1743
01:56:54.560 --> 01:56:57.960
hit between the corner and the safety
to set up the touchdown. He's making
1744
01:56:58.000 --> 01:57:00.680
those throws all over with aggressiveness with
that, Aaron, you know, I
1745
01:57:00.800 --> 01:57:03.520
said, going into a game like
this, you know number one is I
1746
01:57:03.600 --> 01:57:06.439
got to make for me. They
got to be able to deal with success.
1747
01:57:06.640 --> 01:57:10.680
I think that's important. Dealing with
failure is one thing. Dealing with
1748
01:57:10.800 --> 01:57:14.680
success which they're having and people are
talking about him. But going to Cincinnati
1749
01:57:15.039 --> 01:57:17.039
as an approach of a team,
you could go two ways. It would
1750
01:57:17.079 --> 01:57:20.840
be easy to say, that's Joe
Burrow. We got to limit and shorten
1751
01:57:20.880 --> 01:57:24.760
the game, limit their possessions,
so let's run it and try to expeak
1752
01:57:24.960 --> 01:57:27.920
short in the game, which may
get you in trouble anyway. Then there's
1753
01:57:28.000 --> 01:57:30.159
that other part of you that says, we got to be overly aggressive because
1754
01:57:30.239 --> 01:57:32.960
Joe Burrow is going to move the
football on us. Because that's Joe Burrow.
1755
01:57:33.840 --> 01:57:38.520
What approach do they take to me? I almost go in like we
1756
01:57:39.039 --> 01:57:42.640
spotted him ten fourteen points. We
don't have to change our game plan,
1757
01:57:42.720 --> 01:57:45.760
but to play aggressive, aggressive is
how this team should live, especially on
1758
01:57:45.840 --> 01:57:49.720
offense. Right, stay in the
mode of the second half, because I
1759
01:57:49.880 --> 01:57:55.399
truly don't think they're going to run
a football very much against a Rumo's defense
1760
01:57:55.520 --> 01:58:00.399
with TJ. Reader, Trey Henderson
and to the football players they have in
1761
01:58:00.439 --> 01:58:05.880
their front seven. So with that
being said, I think you pivot to
1762
01:58:06.439 --> 01:58:12.720
a more wide open passing game.
And it doesn't mean to throw a bunch
1763
01:58:12.720 --> 01:58:15.319
of bombs all the time. I
think that there's a place for that.
1764
01:58:15.439 --> 01:58:18.239
But what they were doing really on
the game winning drives, some of those
1765
01:58:18.239 --> 01:58:21.079
short throws to Dalton Schultz. You
can move the football that way. There's
1766
01:58:21.119 --> 01:58:25.399
lots of ways to move the football. The one says you have to run
1767
01:58:25.439 --> 01:58:28.840
all the time. You just need
to run enough to make them respect the
1768
01:58:28.920 --> 01:58:33.359
possibility of the run. And who
does Maybe Devin Singletary with the inagers out
1769
01:58:33.399 --> 01:58:38.840
again, maybe he'll play better,
Maybe no break Moore tackles. But it
1770
01:58:38.920 --> 01:58:43.239
looked like a winning game pretty much
stuck in neutral last week, and it's
1771
01:58:43.319 --> 01:58:45.039
not don't have a lot of high
hopes for the running game right now,
1772
01:58:45.199 --> 01:58:49.960
But yeah, I think that they
got to throw the ball and that's probably
1773
01:58:49.960 --> 01:58:56.960
their recipe for success. Their best
formula and blueprint do that. What they'll
1774
01:58:57.000 --> 01:59:01.199
do to defend Joe Burrow even without
a T. Higgins out there, that's
1775
01:59:01.239 --> 01:59:05.479
gonna be tough. And they got
injuries. They got some decisions to make
1776
01:59:05.560 --> 01:59:14.319
here sean about personnel and through a
mixed bag of good news bad news on
1777
01:59:14.399 --> 01:59:18.600
the injury front. Aaron Wilson joins
us at Aaron Wilson on Twitter and Sports
1778
01:59:18.640 --> 01:59:23.119
seven ninety dot com for a lot
of his great stuff and the blogs and
1779
01:59:23.159 --> 01:59:25.720
where you'll hear this interview in case
you missed it or had to go into
1780
01:59:25.760 --> 01:59:29.319
your office. He joined us every
Friday at eight thirty speaking of that Joe
1781
01:59:29.399 --> 01:59:31.680
Burrow approach and the way you go
about this. To me, it comes
1782
01:59:31.760 --> 01:59:35.079
down to it's pretty simple. I
mean, it's a simple game when you
1783
01:59:35.199 --> 01:59:40.760
execute, but the approach has to
be you have to some way manufacturer hits
1784
01:59:40.800 --> 01:59:45.000
on Burrow because if his jersey's clean, the way they're playing offensively, I'm
1785
01:59:45.079 --> 01:59:48.159
not sure that you can stay in
this game keeping up. If you become
1786
01:59:48.239 --> 01:59:53.560
one dimensional and you let him stand
in the pocket and deliver and do the
1787
01:59:53.640 --> 01:59:56.600
things he wants, You're gonna have
to hit both quarterbacks. But Burrow's seen
1788
01:59:56.640 --> 02:00:00.880
this movie before. There's got to
be some how some way pressure created with
1789
02:00:00.960 --> 02:00:04.880
the front seven, right, I
think they can. You know he's been
1790
02:00:04.960 --> 02:00:08.840
sacked at times. Yeah. The
thing about him is he knows to get
1791
02:00:08.880 --> 02:00:13.119
the football out so fast he gets
the ball of his hands. He is
1792
02:00:13.239 --> 02:00:19.000
decisive and he knows what he's doing
so as well as possible. It's not
1793
02:00:19.159 --> 02:00:23.399
like he's sacked in ordinary amount of
times. A couple of times a game
1794
02:00:24.319 --> 02:00:28.000
is the average, and they're gonna
make those ones count, as you said.
1795
02:00:28.079 --> 02:00:31.960
And I think the Jonathan Gernard who
had a great game against the Panthers
1796
02:00:32.039 --> 02:00:38.000
with cohole sacks, he's judge you
something like that again. And I don't
1797
02:00:38.000 --> 02:00:41.720
think their offensive tackle and they're okay, Orlando Brown Junior and John Williams.
1798
02:00:42.239 --> 02:00:46.399
They're good, not great. I
think Texans can mix some noise. You
1799
02:00:46.520 --> 02:00:50.680
got Elie Collins, get the interior
pass rusher. You're gonna get Sheldon Rankins
1800
02:00:50.760 --> 02:00:56.960
back for this game, build in
this last couple and he's gonna play this
1801
02:00:57.079 --> 02:01:02.159
week. He's got full participation,
so that should help. But they probably
1802
02:01:02.199 --> 02:01:05.920
gonna have to blitz a little bit
with like Cashman or someone else. And
1803
02:01:06.000 --> 02:01:10.399
they got to get to the quarterback, all right, Aaron, go ahead,
1804
02:01:12.119 --> 02:01:14.920
I was going to say with that, we're a long way. You
1805
02:01:14.960 --> 02:01:16.159
know, there are ways away from
being a super Bowl team, but they're
1806
02:01:16.159 --> 02:01:21.159
sure making an impact on wanting to
compete for the division. They go in
1807
02:01:21.199 --> 02:01:25.359
there and win or even should I
say the playoffs too with Jackie, but
1808
02:01:25.359 --> 02:01:29.399
they beat Jacksonville already. I'm just
curious how far away we know the run
1809
02:01:29.520 --> 02:01:33.960
games struggle. How far away is
this team from being a team that can
1810
02:01:34.079 --> 02:01:41.159
dominate two thirds of the season.
How far away are they? I think
1811
02:01:41.199 --> 02:01:46.720
that's more next year for being a
dominant team because you look at them and
1812
02:01:47.000 --> 02:01:54.479
personnel wise and efficiency. I don't
think the run blocking has been great.
1813
02:01:55.520 --> 02:02:00.279
I look at that on offense.
I look on defense and I still under
1814
02:02:00.359 --> 02:02:03.319
if really they could upgrade at the
linebacker position for the off the ball guys,
1815
02:02:03.680 --> 02:02:10.279
and they still aren't really. You
know, they are trying, and
1816
02:02:10.439 --> 02:02:15.159
they have some flashes. The pass
rushers are very consistent. I think the
1817
02:02:15.239 --> 02:02:17.880
secondary is good enough, especially when
everybody's out there. They will not have
1818
02:02:17.960 --> 02:02:21.600
everybody out there this week. Seawn
Jimmy Ward will miss the game. Stephen
1819
02:02:21.640 --> 02:02:27.720
Nelson will miss the game, and
I'm hearing there is a chance of Derrick
1820
02:02:27.760 --> 02:02:31.399
Stingley junior playing. If he is
activated hearing about a pitch count, then
1821
02:02:31.439 --> 02:02:34.760
he'll be on a limited number of
plays. But he did work with the
1822
02:02:34.800 --> 02:02:42.560
first team defense yesterday and had a
full practice, so they have some options
1823
02:02:42.640 --> 02:02:49.319
there. If not Kadar Holman,
Shack Griffin, Jamn Petrie, Tavia Thomas,
1824
02:02:49.479 --> 02:02:54.920
and probably Deander Houston, Carson Orr, Briandon Arnold. Even possibly they
1825
02:02:54.960 --> 02:02:58.800
split time the other safety spot with
Jimmy Ward out, so they have got
1826
02:02:58.880 --> 02:03:02.279
a thin secondary. They sure could
use Derek Sting the junior, but obviously
1827
02:03:02.359 --> 02:03:06.920
it's important big pitch make sure they
are no stepbacks. He hasn't played football,
1828
02:03:08.479 --> 02:03:12.960
he's been out for seven weeks with
the hamstery injury. What's a fair
1829
02:03:13.079 --> 02:03:21.800
midterm gat on on Will Anderson.
I would give Will Anderson B to B
1830
02:03:21.960 --> 02:03:26.720
plus, kind of like a fit
there in the B category. You give
1831
02:03:26.800 --> 02:03:30.279
him an A for run stop.
He just hasn't been a finisher as a
1832
02:03:30.720 --> 02:03:33.159
pass rushers or a sax. But
he's got a lot of pressure. I
1833
02:03:33.279 --> 02:03:36.800
really like Will Anderson. I think
he's got a couple of sacks. You
1834
02:03:38.199 --> 02:03:41.640
hope that he would be able to
finish one more, but he's a rookie.
1835
02:03:42.199 --> 02:03:45.239
I still learn in the game.
But I like everything about him.
1836
02:03:45.279 --> 02:03:50.880
I love his attitude toward football and
he's a relentless less football player and great
1837
02:03:50.960 --> 02:03:55.039
teacher in front of him. And
it's pretty good right now. I mean,
1838
02:03:55.079 --> 02:03:58.079
he's just doing a lot of things
that maybe don't always show up in
1839
02:03:58.119 --> 02:04:03.079
the statue. Would they still pick
him third if they if they drafted today?
1840
02:04:03.079 --> 02:04:08.680
In your mind? And I know
the guy. We had a conversation
1841
02:04:08.840 --> 02:04:12.680
with one of their top personnel executives, James Lipfer. We had a conference
1842
02:04:12.760 --> 02:04:15.720
call yesterday to talk about most about
the draft class, and so we answered
1843
02:04:15.720 --> 02:04:18.560
a lot of questions about c J. Stroud and how they didn't care about
1844
02:04:18.560 --> 02:04:21.439
the S two score that was low. They just wanted to get to know
1845
02:04:21.560 --> 02:04:27.319
him, liked him as a quarterback, and also about Will Anderson and gushing
1846
02:04:27.399 --> 02:04:30.960
praise from Will, which lines up
just with Howard Nick Cassio and Demiko Ryans,
1847
02:04:31.479 --> 02:04:34.119
Matt Burker have talked about him.
Yeah, they're they're really happy with
1848
02:04:34.239 --> 02:04:39.279
Will. They would still draft him
at test spot. So chances to tell
1849
02:04:39.319 --> 02:04:44.399
me how you think this plays out
on Sunday. I think the Bengals had
1850
02:04:44.479 --> 02:04:47.680
the edge. I think that they'll
should be able to move the football pretty
1851
02:04:47.720 --> 02:04:54.600
well, they will, you know
probably, you know they're favored, and
1852
02:04:54.920 --> 02:04:57.800
I think they can win this in
a close game, and it's a tough
1853
02:04:57.880 --> 02:05:02.199
one for the Texans if CG it
can't duplicate that second half, and I
1854
02:05:02.239 --> 02:05:05.880
don't think they win the game.
So yeah, I would say Bengals on
1855
02:05:05.960 --> 02:05:12.279
this one, but not from a
lact of effort or competitiveness from the Texans
1856
02:05:12.319 --> 02:05:15.199
standpoint. Just maybe a little outgun
on this game. But you know,
1857
02:05:15.279 --> 02:05:18.279
we'll see that's funny, play them
and just say they won. Would I
1858
02:05:18.359 --> 02:05:21.239
be shocked, No, not at
all. Their team that can beat any
1859
02:05:21.279 --> 02:05:25.359
team on the schedule, or they
can lose any team on the schedule.
1860
02:05:25.359 --> 02:05:28.960
And that's the thing about the Texas
there that classic five hundred team. Yep.
1861
02:05:29.159 --> 02:05:31.479
Still learn how to win every week. Yep, that dealing with success,
1862
02:05:31.680 --> 02:05:34.319
learning how to win, and it
does come become contagious, and it
1863
02:05:34.399 --> 02:05:38.039
is an art and you got to
have some talent and they got it.
1864
02:05:38.439 --> 02:05:41.159
I wouldn't be shocked either. Maybe
a little surprised, but not shocked,
1865
02:05:41.239 --> 02:05:44.119
especially when your quarterback's playing this well. Aaron, great stuff. Man.
1866
02:05:44.640 --> 02:05:46.159
Enjoy the week, and hopefully we'll
be talking next week about a five and
1867
02:05:46.239 --> 02:05:49.760
four football team with eight games to
go. I always appreciate you, brother,
1868
02:05:49.880 --> 02:05:54.000
thanks you great. The Texan sure
will thanks, Budy appreciate it's great.
1869
02:05:54.039 --> 02:05:57.920
Aaron Wilson at Aaron Wilson on Twitter. We'll come back and discuss right
1870
02:05:57.960 --> 02:06:00.720
here on Sports Talk seven ninety.
The Texans and a big game. And
1871
02:06:00.840 --> 02:06:04.000
you know what, we've seen upsets
before and with the quarterback plan this well,
1872
02:06:04.359 --> 02:06:08.119
who the hell would think it's a
major upset, maybe a minimal,
1873
02:06:08.279 --> 02:06:11.560
maybe a little one. But CJ. Stroud's playing well enough to win.
1874
02:06:11.680 --> 02:06:15.359

1901
02:08:20.520 --> 02:08:24.640

after the show at Sports seven ninety
dot com. Sean bry and Tripley here
1903
02:08:28.560 --> 02:08:31.359
with you. Hey, I was
curious, yes, okay, if you
1904
02:08:31.439 --> 02:08:39.479
ever needed an electrical contractor? Independent? Yeah, so, independent electrical contractors
1905
02:08:39.520 --> 02:08:43.199
are what they're independent electrical contractors.
They start at the bottom and then gets
1906
02:08:43.239 --> 02:08:48.000
to the top. Black drag.
I love Michael Marry Dude. That's one
1907
02:08:48.039 --> 02:08:50.439
of my favorites of all time.
Say it again, ask me that question.
1908
02:08:50.720 --> 02:09:00.520
The independent electrical contractors are a group
of independent electrical contractors. That one
1909
02:09:00.640 --> 02:09:05.760
or Eric Dick the bet Well,
he's legendary, all right, Ed,
1910
02:09:05.079 --> 02:09:09.119
I call him d not for the
d you're talking about Eric, right,
1911
02:09:09.159 --> 02:09:13.760
But if you do have problems with
d you right, you know to go
1912

All a big plan, all we got

02:09:20.159 --> 02:09:22.760
all the play we know how to
We're just We're just we got all the
1914
02:09:22.800 --> 02:09:26.199
plant We're not a ploy, yeah, employee things are we? Man l
1915
02:09:26.880 --> 02:09:31.079
Aaron Wilson, you know, talked
a little bit about uh C J.
1916
02:09:31.239 --> 02:09:35.439
Stroud and then of course right on
Q I'm scrolling through Twitter and the uh
1917
02:09:37.439 --> 02:09:43.000
NFL Rookie Watch Twitter page. M
HM came out with some statistics and where
1918
02:09:43.119 --> 02:09:48.920
C. J. Stroud ranks among
the three m VP favorites with Sir Patrick
1919
02:09:48.000 --> 02:09:52.680
Mahomes, Jalen Hurts and Lamar Jackson. Pretty favorable, I imagine. Yeah.
1920
02:09:52.479 --> 02:09:58.239
Stroud is currently on pace to finish
this season with four and twenty four
1921
02:09:58.319 --> 02:10:01.920
yards thirty passing, touchdowns, two
interceptions, and one on two point nine
1922
02:10:01.960 --> 02:10:05.640
passer rating. If that doesn't put
you in the MVP talk, then I'm
1923
02:10:05.720 --> 02:10:09.600
not sure why we're playing football.
Has a rookie quarterback ever won the MVP
1924
02:10:11.840 --> 02:10:18.760
in modern times? No, because
no rookie quarterbacks had this type of season.
1925
02:10:18.880 --> 02:10:22.760
Second year maybe back in the day, who knows, But since I've
1926
02:10:22.800 --> 02:10:26.119
been old enough to know and watch
it and play it and cover it,
1927
02:10:26.239 --> 02:10:31.640
and no, I don't think a
rookie quarterback's ever won the Most Valuable Player
1928
02:10:31.640 --> 02:10:35.439
Award. I mean, this is
the best rookie season you're having. So
1929
02:10:35.840 --> 02:10:39.439
Marino and eighty three didn't win the
MVP. Eighty four he did second year,
1930
02:10:41.039 --> 02:10:45.359
but first year no, no Manning, no Allen, no Mahomes,
1931
02:10:45.479 --> 02:10:50.239
no Montana, no Elway, no
Aikman, no Jim Kelly, none of
1932
02:10:50.279 --> 02:10:54.960
those. No Steve Young, none
of those guys. Tom Brady, not
1933
02:10:54.319 --> 02:10:58.159
a one of them. This is
the best rookie start we've ever had.
1934
02:10:58.560 --> 02:11:01.800
It's pretty impressive, man, sure, I mean you look at Mahomes is
1935
02:11:01.840 --> 02:11:07.960
on pace to finish with less passing
yards, more tds, less or more
1936
02:11:07.039 --> 02:11:11.159
interceptions. You know, I don't
know that, like c J. Stroud
1937
02:11:11.239 --> 02:11:13.760
has better stats than all these guys. Well, if you're going by what
1938
02:11:13.880 --> 02:11:18.079
we see here at the midway point, Mahomes has eight picks and you don't
1939
02:11:18.079 --> 02:11:20.800
think he'll I mean maybe won't throw
eight in the second half, but in
1940
02:11:20.960 --> 02:11:26.199
truth, that would be sixteen picks. And c J. Stroud's on to
1941
02:11:26.319 --> 02:11:30.560
throw three, yeah, two two
picks. So they have him at what
1942
02:11:30.760 --> 02:11:33.520
did you say, thirty and two, Yeah, thirty and two, thirty
1943
02:11:33.600 --> 02:11:39.760
and two and forty eight hundred yards. Yeah, well if that, if
1944
02:11:39.800 --> 02:11:41.359
it really does come to that point
where he protects the ball and they're that
1945
02:11:41.439 --> 02:11:46.199
aggressive in the second half and he's
pushing five grand with thirty touchdowns and two
1946
02:11:46.239 --> 02:11:50.119
if he doesn't win the MVP,
I'll tell you what, Lamar Jackson,
1947
02:11:50.199 --> 02:11:52.760
Joe Burrow grew that group. That'll
be really friggin good the second half of
1948
02:11:52.800 --> 02:11:56.119
the season. And if he has
those numbers, I'm imagining they're going to
1949
02:11:56.159 --> 02:12:00.479
be like a nine wins team that
puts you in the MVP. Pee talk.
1950
02:12:01.000 --> 02:12:03.920
Yeah, because I mean the in
the in a very small team picture,
1951
02:12:05.079 --> 02:12:09.800
right, because it's phenomenal. They've
got a Lamar Jackson currently on pace
1952
02:12:09.840 --> 02:12:13.479
to finish the season with three thou
six and ninety one passing yards, fifteen
1953
02:12:13.640 --> 02:12:18.800
excuse me, seventeen passing tds,
six interceptions, seventeen and six. It's
1954
02:12:18.840 --> 02:12:22.520
not very Those numbers aren't a lot
of the other things he's doing right that
1955
02:12:24.279 --> 02:12:26.119
Remember when Kirk Gibson won the you
weren't. But when Kirk Gibson won the
1956
02:12:26.199 --> 02:12:28.680
MVP for the Dodgers a year in
eighty I think it was eighty eight,
1957
02:12:30.239 --> 02:12:33.720
he didn't have Gotdy statistics, but
the leadership and everything gutting it out went
1958
02:12:33.800 --> 02:12:37.159
into it. Maybe that's the type
of thing, and Lamar's talent's so good,
1959
02:12:37.239 --> 02:12:39.359
but I think people want to see
him gut it out when it's not
1960
02:12:39.560 --> 02:12:41.560
just him. He's got to win
close games with his feet and his arm
1961
02:12:41.640 --> 02:12:46.159
and toughing it out. And he's
really playing good football. But we always
1962
02:12:46.239 --> 02:12:48.399
look to the gotdy stats. But
if CJ. Stroud gets him to nine
1963
02:12:48.439 --> 02:12:54.239
wins, that's five and a half
more than last year and throws for almost
1964
02:12:54.279 --> 02:12:58.840
five grand Yeah, and thirty touchdowns
against two picks. Come on, now,
1965
02:13:00.039 --> 02:13:03.119
MVP's got to be the MVP of
that. Somebody has similar numbers and
1966
02:13:03.199 --> 02:13:05.800
as a team that wins the divisions, like unless Lawrence goes hey, Wired
1967
02:13:05.880 --> 02:13:09.359
has more and better numbers. Yeah, I don't see how it's going to
1968
02:13:09.359 --> 02:13:11.000
be the case because you're gonna and
knowing that you don't have run game,
1969
02:13:11.079 --> 02:13:18.039
gotta throw pretty impressive man. So
to answer your question, nobody's had a
1970
02:13:18.159 --> 02:13:20.319
rookie season to start like this at
this position. Let's go to the phone
1971
02:13:20.359 --> 02:13:24.199
line seven, one three, five
seven. Let's go to Jay. What's
1972
02:13:24.279 --> 02:13:28.119
up, Jay? Hey, how
y'all doing? Fellas? Uh? Just
1973
02:13:28.560 --> 02:13:33.359
a point about the Bryce Young game
yesterday. I'm a big bright Shild support
1974
02:13:33.439 --> 02:13:37.840
as as as I've previously stayed it
before, and after looking at that game
1975
02:13:37.960 --> 02:13:43.239
yesterday, I just have a feeling
like we kind of get into this box
1976
02:13:43.359 --> 02:13:48.840
when when draft kicks come out where
they're winners. Even though he did real
1977
02:13:48.920 --> 02:13:52.640
well statistics wise, his his strength
was his leadership and making the play.
1978
02:13:54.279 --> 02:13:56.920
Even on the good Alabama team,
it seemed like he just made the play.
1979
02:13:58.680 --> 02:14:03.920
So looking at yesterday's game they Carolina, it was an ugly game and
1980
02:14:03.000 --> 02:14:07.720
I'm surprised I watched it, to
be honest, But Carolina played good enough
1981
02:14:07.800 --> 02:14:13.600
to win that game. Are Chicago
played bad enough to at Carolina to win
1982
02:14:13.720 --> 02:14:16.680
that game? I guess I could
say. And he been some throws that
1983
02:14:16.960 --> 02:14:20.720
was just like, come on now, like you gotta make those throws.
1984
02:14:20.399 --> 02:14:24.840
So when I just to overview of
Bryce Young versus c J. Stroud,
1985
02:14:26.079 --> 02:14:30.039
it's just that Bryce Young when I
look at it, I look at him
1986
02:14:30.039 --> 02:14:33.640
as a winner, and so the
leadership ability of just making the play.
1987
02:14:33.800 --> 02:14:39.520
He's never going to touch CJ.
Stroud's numbers. So I'm still with him,
1988
02:14:41.399 --> 02:14:43.960
but it's just kind of disappointed looking
at that game, like, man,
1989
02:14:43.039 --> 02:14:46.119
he could have made that play.
Like you know, the wins matter.
1990
02:14:46.520 --> 02:14:50.520
And I thought coming into the season
that that that even though Carolina has
1991
02:14:52.760 --> 02:14:54.399
not a lot of great talent,
I thought, you know, they played
1992
02:14:54.560 --> 02:14:58.000
a lot of close games this year. And when you look at the stat
1993
02:14:58.039 --> 02:15:01.760
sheet, he's throwing who picked sixes
the days and lose it bout ten points.
1994
02:15:03.000 --> 02:15:07.720
So that's the adjustment for me when
I look at bright John versus Stroud,
1995
02:15:07.760 --> 02:15:11.319
cy Stroud doesn't do that stuff.
He makes the play, he makes
1996
02:15:11.359 --> 02:15:16.399
the throws, he's third down,
he makes the necessary passes to win the
1997
02:15:16.479 --> 02:15:18.560
game, put them in positions to
win, and he's putting up guardy numbers.
1998
02:15:20.199 --> 02:15:22.359
So that's the difference between the two
in my opinion. Thank you,
1999
02:15:22.479 --> 02:15:28.960
Jay, great point, and he's
exactly right. And Stroud's making hard throws
2000
02:15:28.000 --> 02:15:33.119
look really really easy. Yeah,
and the easy throws he's making, that's
2001
02:15:33.119 --> 02:15:37.720
a pretty good combination. Let's let's
talk NBA basketball. Just look at these

Let's look at these Rockets, see
if they can win five straight. They
2020
02:17:24.120 --> 02:17:28.280
host the Pelicans. Zion playing a
nine? Or is he like going out
2021
02:17:28.280 --> 02:17:31.040
with another stripper or something. I
think he's still sitting out tonight. I
2022
02:17:31.040 --> 02:17:37.600
don't I'm busy. I'm not sure
who plays more games this year? Well
2023
02:17:37.639 --> 02:17:43.719
we had that. We had that
question before the I mean long before the
2024
02:17:43.719 --> 02:17:48.319
Sea started. The hell who would
play more games? I don't think we
2025
02:17:48.399 --> 02:17:52.959
gave either one of them fifty?
Did we did we give either one of
2026
02:17:52.959 --> 02:17:56.200
those guys? I think no,
I don't think we did. I think
2027
02:17:56.239 --> 02:17:58.959
we gave him like forty five or
something like that. Zion is a game
2028
02:18:00.120 --> 02:18:01.600
time decision. What's going on with
him now? I don't even know.
2029
02:18:01.680 --> 02:18:05.600
It doesn't legs. I paid attention
to the Pelicans one bit this year,
2030
02:18:05.719 --> 02:18:07.399
so I saw a little bit of
highlights about him. Well, what's he?
2031
02:18:07.520 --> 02:18:11.680
What's he doing? Zion is?
Let me scroll down here. I
2032
02:18:11.760 --> 02:18:18.280
got the full list right here in
front of me. He is listed day
2033
02:18:18.280 --> 02:18:20.280
to day. Yeah, let me
guess it's either a sore back or sore
2034
02:18:20.319 --> 02:18:24.959
hammy. It's neither. Flu like
symptoms. Neither no, no, I
2035
02:18:26.040 --> 02:18:31.719
mean sorry not neither no. Oh, I know what it is? Ankle
2036
02:18:31.799 --> 02:18:37.280
sore, ankle, nope, uh
mentals he he's a metal rest. You're
2037
02:18:37.360 --> 02:18:43.879
kidding. It's listed as personal.
Yeah he outside? Yeah, he outside
2038
02:18:43.920 --> 02:18:48.959
again? We ain't Houston tonight or
is yeah we're here, we're here,
2039
02:18:48.120 --> 02:18:52.239
okay, yeah he outside the night. Yeah. So let me ask you
2040
02:18:52.360 --> 02:18:54.799
now personal, I don't know.
Is he going through something in his dating
2041
02:18:54.879 --> 02:18:58.520
life man, whatever it is,
or hopefully his children and family are healthy.
2042
02:18:58.600 --> 02:19:03.799
But I'm curious. When's the last
time he played the last game?
2043
02:19:03.840 --> 02:19:09.120
How long has it been? Se
Let's check it out. So I'll ask
2044
02:19:09.200 --> 02:19:11.639
you this. Has he been sitting
on the bench and with the team even
2045
02:19:11.639 --> 02:19:16.200
though it's going through personal stuff?
So he played four days ago? Okay,
2046
02:19:16.520 --> 02:19:18.600
let me ask you Ques. We
played thirty seven minutes in a loss
2047
02:19:18.600 --> 02:19:22.879
against the Denver Nuggets, right,
okay, he scored twenty So since then
2048
02:19:22.000 --> 02:19:26.600
to now something personal going on?
I don't know. If it's hopefully it's
2049
02:19:26.600 --> 02:19:30.680
not health with a family member.
I always qualify that because it's not laughing
2050
02:19:30.680 --> 02:19:33.000
and somebody who's going through it.
But I hear this all the time.
2051
02:19:33.040 --> 02:19:35.840
You know what it's starting to It
gets to the point that people who actually
2052
02:19:35.879 --> 02:19:39.399
are going through certain you almost take
it for granted because like, oh,
2053
02:19:39.799 --> 02:19:41.319
are they or aren't they? What
what do we Some guy got benched like
2054
02:19:41.399 --> 02:19:46.799
the football guy at all miss and
I'm not mental health serious man, But
2055
02:19:46.639 --> 02:19:50.879
he played four days ago and if
personal reason, but it was as he
2056
02:19:50.959 --> 02:19:54.280
been? Have they played since?
When's the last game they played? And
2057
02:19:54.360 --> 02:19:56.719
I want to know? Was he
on the bench and street closed root and
2058
02:19:56.760 --> 02:20:00.479
his team on? So let's see
he played on Monday the six Okay,
2059
02:20:00.600 --> 02:20:07.040
let's uh, and today's tent they
had to play? So if yeah,
2060
02:20:07.079 --> 02:20:13.040
they played the Timberwolves, they lost? That was was he was on the
2061
02:20:13.159 --> 02:20:16.159
road or at home? That was
on the road? Okay? Was he
2062
02:20:16.239 --> 02:20:22.280
accompanying the team? If he was
on the trip and sitting on the bench,
2063
02:20:22.399 --> 02:20:26.520
why can't he play two days ago? If he was, I don't
2064
02:20:26.559 --> 02:20:31.559
know the answer of if he was, If he made the trip and is
2065
02:20:31.600 --> 02:20:39.200
sitting on the bench, why then
if he made the trip and sitting on
2066
02:20:39.280 --> 02:20:41.520
the bench, but he's not physically
hurt, but he mentally can't play,
2067
02:20:41.719 --> 02:20:48.440
Okay, So he was listed as
out against the Tea Wolves due to personal
2068
02:20:48.520 --> 02:20:50.959
reasons. But was he was?
He with no, No, he was
2069
02:20:50.040 --> 02:20:54.680
not. Okay, then maybe it's
something that I don't know, if it's
2070
02:20:54.760 --> 02:20:56.520
mental health or if it's something with
family or him that he's going through.
2071
02:20:56.920 --> 02:21:01.120
Okay, had you gone to the
game and is rooting them on in street
2072
02:21:01.159 --> 02:21:05.799
clothes and is physically healthy but did
not play in the game, I don't
2073
02:21:05.879 --> 02:21:09.360
understand what that mental health thing is. Do you he doesn't go, then
2074
02:21:09.399 --> 02:21:15.200
maybe there's something deeper, and I
respect that. Apparently he's awaiting the arrival
2075
02:21:15.239 --> 02:21:20.959
of his first child. Zion's girlfriend
posted a photo taking out a hospital on
2076
02:21:22.200 --> 02:21:26.639
Tuesday. She then deleted the post, and that post fueled speculation before the
2077
02:21:26.680 --> 02:21:31.879
Pelicans officially listed Williamson as out of
the game against the Tea Wolves. So
2078
02:21:31.040 --> 02:21:37.680
he's hanging around to just anticipating when
the baby's coming. Yeah, okay,
2079
02:21:39.239 --> 02:21:43.399
how do you feel about that?
One? Being there for your kids is
2080
02:21:43.399 --> 02:21:48.760
important. I understand that, but
unless you're going to miss a whole week,
2081
02:21:48.360 --> 02:21:54.319
oh like awaiting it the child?
Yeah, I dude, you're talking
2082
02:21:54.360 --> 02:21:58.600
the wrong guy. Yeah, but
okay, see how many professional athletes have
2083
02:21:58.760 --> 02:22:01.680
literally been pulled out of aims to
go haul ass of the hospital. Yeah,
2084
02:22:01.719 --> 02:22:05.159
and I'm okay. I've mean be
grad. I was there for all
2085
02:22:05.200 --> 02:22:09.959
three of mine and I loved it. But I can tell you that I
2086
02:22:09.440 --> 02:22:16.159
up until you knew what was happening, your ass was as usual. Yeah,
2087
02:22:16.840 --> 02:22:20.959
unless mama's like has health issues.
And it's scary right that there.
2088
02:22:20.319 --> 02:22:24.879
It's a dangerous right right. I
listen, man, I'm not here.
2089
02:22:26.239 --> 02:22:31.159
I was such a kind of gentler
shot dead ago. This dude's averaging like
2090
02:22:31.200 --> 02:22:33.440
twenty two a game too so far
the season, such a kind He's playing
2091
02:22:33.520 --> 02:22:37.360
really well, and yet he's been
out the last well, he was out
2092
02:22:37.479 --> 02:22:41.479
Tuesday, and he's set to be
out again tonight against the Rockets for personal
2093
02:22:41.520 --> 02:22:46.040
reasons. I'm such a kinder,
gentler guy than I would have been a
2094
02:22:46.120 --> 02:22:50.600
decade plus so a decade ago,
what would you have said, Just give
2095
02:22:50.680 --> 02:22:52.239
us a little taste of it,
you know what, just a little I
2096
02:22:52.319 --> 02:23:00.799
would have said, Not full buy
in and soft as wet Charman bathroom tissue,
2097
02:23:01.680 --> 02:23:07.360
but shift my paradigms. Man.
I'm not here to I really don't
2098
02:23:07.399 --> 02:23:11.479
care if anybody likes my approach or
not. I'm not here to tell Zion.
2099
02:23:11.760 --> 02:23:15.319
I don't know what Zion Williamson thinking
about I don't know the compliment.
2100
02:23:15.440 --> 02:23:18.440
See, you know we used to. We would sometimes we react right off
2101
02:23:18.479 --> 02:23:20.200
the bat, you know we do, and we just throw it out there
2102
02:23:20.200 --> 02:23:22.000
because it's it's our quick reaction.
Then we take a step back and say,
2103
02:23:22.000 --> 02:23:24.520
okay, let me shift my paradigms
to understand what they're going through.
2104
02:23:26.399 --> 02:23:28.559
I know what rock Bottom looks like. I know what guy was going through.
2105
02:23:28.600 --> 02:23:30.479
I say, what, I missed
a game even though I was going
2106
02:23:30.520 --> 02:23:33.719
through My answer would be no,
I just I'm just I think different.
2107
02:23:33.159 --> 02:23:35.680
We all screw up and we all
go through, but I'm not here to
2108
02:23:35.760 --> 02:23:39.559
judge his mental health or what he
and his you know, his girl are
2109
02:23:39.600 --> 02:23:43.159
going through about having their baby.
I would play up until I knew that
2110
02:23:43.200 --> 02:23:45.319
it was time to go have a
baby, and then I'd go get on
2111
02:23:45.360 --> 02:23:48.120
a plan. It happened to me
missed practice once, was there the next
2112
02:23:48.239 --> 02:23:52.000
day with cigars handing out to my
teammates, and went right back to work.
2113
02:23:52.120 --> 02:23:56.000
It's just maybe it's just that,

Pad. The pregame show starts at

home for Rockets basketball. Texans taking

2128
02:25:28.760 --> 02:25:31.559
kickoff up in Cincinnati. Talked to
Texans quite a bit this morning. Let's
2129
02:25:31.559 --> 02:25:37.040
look at these Rockets see if they
can win five straight. They host the
2130
02:25:37.120 --> 02:25:39.680
Pelicans as I am playing a nine
or is he like going out with another
2131
02:25:39.719 --> 02:25:43.559
stripper or something? I think he's
still sitting out tonight. I don't I'm
2132
02:25:43.639 --> 02:25:50.040
busy. I'm not sure who plays
more games this year? Well we had
2133
02:25:50.079 --> 02:25:54.479
that, We had that question before
the I mean long before the sun started.
2134
02:25:56.479 --> 02:26:00.920
The hell who would play more games? I don't think we gave either
2135
02:26:00.959 --> 02:26:05.440
one of them fifty? Did we
did we give either one of those guys?
2136
02:26:05.520 --> 02:26:07.319
Zion? I think no, I
don't think we did. I think
2137
02:26:07.319 --> 02:26:11.159
we gave him like forty five or
something like that. Zion is a game
2138
02:26:11.200 --> 02:26:13.719
time decision. What's going on with
him now? I don't even know.
2139
02:26:13.799 --> 02:26:16.079
It doesn't legis paid attention to the
Pelicans one bit this year, so I
2140
02:26:16.680 --> 02:26:18.840
saw a little bit of highlights about
him. Well, what's he? What's
2141
02:26:18.879 --> 02:26:24.040
he doing? Zion is? Let
me scroll down here. I got the
2142
02:26:24.120 --> 02:26:28.719
full list right here in front of
me. He is listed day to day.
2143
02:26:28.760 --> 02:26:31.719
Yeah, let me guess it's either
a sore back or sore hammy.
2144
02:26:31.840 --> 02:26:37.680
It's neither flu like symptoms neither No, no, I mean sorry, not
2145
02:26:37.799 --> 02:26:41.079
neither. No. Oh, I
know what it is. What is it?
2146
02:26:41.479 --> 02:26:46.399
Ankle? Sore ankle? Nope?
Uh mentals he needs a metal rest.
2147
02:26:48.239 --> 02:26:54.399
You're kidding. It's listed as personal. Yeah he outside? Yeah?
2148
02:26:54.479 --> 02:26:58.479
He outside again? We ain't Houston
tonight? Or is yeah, we're here,
2149
02:26:58.639 --> 02:27:01.600
we're here? Okay, yeah he
outside the night. Yeah. So
2150
02:27:01.760 --> 02:27:05.159
let me ask you now personal,
I don't know. Is he going through
2151
02:27:05.280 --> 02:27:09.760
something in his dating life man,
whatever it is, or hopefully his children
2152
02:27:09.799 --> 02:27:13.840
and family are healthy. But I'm
curious. When's the last time he played
2153
02:27:15.360 --> 02:27:16.920
the last game? How long has
it been? See, let's check it
2154
02:27:18.000 --> 02:27:20.760
out. So I'll ask you this. Has he been sitting on the bench
2155
02:27:20.799 --> 02:27:24.360
and with the team even though it's
going through personal stuff? So he played
2156
02:27:26.040 --> 02:27:28.920
four days ago? Okay, let
me ask you qu We played thirty seven
2157
02:27:28.920 --> 02:27:31.920
minutes in a loss against the Denver
Nuggets, right, okay, he scored
2158
02:27:31.959 --> 02:27:35.479
twenty So since then to now something
personal going on? I don't know.
2159
02:27:35.520 --> 02:27:39.639
If it's hopefully it's not health with
a family member. I always qualify that
2160
02:27:39.719 --> 02:27:43.639
because it's not laughing and somebody who's
going through it. But I hear this
2161
02:27:43.719 --> 02:27:45.760
all the time. You know what
it's starting to It gets to the point
2162
02:27:46.079 --> 02:27:48.680
that people who actually are going through
certain you almost take it for granted because
2163
02:27:48.840 --> 02:27:52.280
like, oh, are they or
aren't they? What? What do we
2164
02:27:52.479 --> 02:27:56.680
Some guy got benched like the football
guy at all miss and I'm not mental
2165
02:27:56.760 --> 02:28:01.440
health serious man, But he played
four days ago and personal reason? But
2166
02:28:01.479 --> 02:28:03.719
it was his he been? Have
they played since? When the last game
2167
02:28:03.760 --> 02:28:05.879
they played? And I want to
know? Was he on the bench and
2168
02:28:05.920 --> 02:28:09.680
street closed root and his team on? So let's see he played on Monday
2169
02:28:09.760 --> 02:28:16.360
the sixth, Okay, let's uh, and today's tent they had to play?
2170
02:28:18.159 --> 02:28:22.719
So if yeah, they played the
Timberwolves, they lost? That was
2171
02:28:22.360 --> 02:28:26.319
was he was on the road or
at home? That was on the road?
2172
02:28:26.559 --> 02:28:31.959
Okay? Was he accompanying the team? If he was on the trip
2173
02:28:31.360 --> 02:28:37.680
and sitting on the bench, why
can't he play two days ago? If
2174
02:28:37.719 --> 02:28:39.760
he was, I don't know the
answer of if he was, if he
2175
02:28:39.920 --> 02:28:48.440
made the trip and is sitting on
the bench, why then If he made
2176
02:28:48.479 --> 02:28:52.600
the trip and sitting on the bench, but he's not physically hurt, but
2177
02:28:52.680 --> 02:28:58.239
he mentally can't play? Okay,
So he was listed as out against the
2178
02:28:58.280 --> 02:29:01.079
Tea Wolves due to personal reasons,
but was he with no, he was
2179
02:29:01.120 --> 02:29:05.120
not? Okay, then maybe it's
something that I don't know if it's mental
2180
02:29:05.159 --> 02:29:09.319
health or if it's something with family
or him that he's going through. Okay,
2181
02:29:09.399 --> 02:29:11.799
ha, do you gone to the
game and is rooting him on in
2182
02:29:11.920 --> 02:29:16.639
street clothes and is physically healthy but
did not play in the game. I
2183
02:29:16.719 --> 02:29:20.840
don't understand what that mental health thing
is, do you? He doesn't go,
2184
02:29:20.319 --> 02:29:24.559
then maybe there's something deeper, and
I respect that. Apparently he's awaiting
2185
02:29:24.760 --> 02:29:31.319
the arrival of his first child.
Zion's girlfriend posted a photo taking out a
2186
02:29:31.399 --> 02:29:37.360
hospital on Tuesday. She then deleted
the post, and that post fueled speculation
2187
02:29:37.479 --> 02:29:41.760
before the Pelicans officially listed Williamson as
out of the game against the Tea Wolves.
2188
02:29:41.959 --> 02:29:46.879
So he's hanging around to just anticipating
when the baby's coming. Yeah,
2189
02:29:48.479 --> 02:29:54.120
okay, how do you feel about
that? One? Being there for your
2190
02:29:54.200 --> 02:29:58.479
kids is important. I understand that, but unless you're going to miss a
2191
02:29:58.520 --> 02:30:03.959
whole week, oh like awaiting it
the child? Yeah, I I dude,
2192
02:30:05.000 --> 02:30:07.040
you're talking the wrong guy, man. Yeah, but okay, see,
2193
02:30:07.079 --> 02:30:11.600
I mean professional athletes have literally been
pulled out of games to go haul
2194
02:30:11.639 --> 02:30:15.680
ass of the hospital. Yeah,
and I'm okay, I'd mean grad I
2195
02:30:15.760 --> 02:30:18.000
was there for all three of mine, and I loved it. But I
2196
02:30:18.079 --> 02:30:24.280
can tell you that I, up
until you knew what was happening, yours
2197
02:30:24.440 --> 02:30:30.239
was practice of the case as usual. Yeah, unless mama's like has health
2198
02:30:30.280 --> 02:30:35.360
issues and it's scary right that there, it's a dangerous right right. I
2199
02:30:35.799 --> 02:30:39.639
listen, man, I'm not here. I was such a kinder, gentler
2200
02:30:39.719 --> 02:30:43.959
shot. This dude's averaging like twenty
two a game too so far the season.
2201
02:30:43.120 --> 02:30:46.120
Such a kind he's playing really well, and yet he's been out the
2202
02:30:46.200 --> 02:30:50.280
last well, he was out Tuesday, and he's set to be out again
2203
02:30:50.319 --> 02:30:56.159
tonight against the Rockets for personal reasons. I'm such a kinder, gentler guy
2204
02:30:56.239 --> 02:30:58.799
than I would have been a decade
plus. So a decade ago, what
2205
02:30:58.840 --> 02:31:01.719
would you have said, Just give
us a little taste of it, you
2206
02:31:01.760 --> 02:31:07.680
know what, just a little I
would have said, Not full buy in
2207
02:31:07.000 --> 02:31:16.239
and soft as wet sharm and bathroom
tissue, but shift my paradigms. Man,
2208
02:31:16.360 --> 02:31:20.879
I'm not here to I really don't
care if anybody likes my approach or
2209
02:31:20.920 --> 02:31:24.040
not. I'm not here to tell
Zion. I don't know what Zion Williamson
2210
02:31:24.079 --> 02:31:26.360
thinking about. I don't know the
compliment. See, you know, we
2211
02:31:26.520 --> 02:31:30.120
used to we would sometimes we react
right off the bat, you know we
2212
02:31:30.200 --> 02:31:31.719
do, and we just throw it
out there because it's our quick reaction.
2213
02:31:33.040 --> 02:31:33.879
Then we take a step back and
say, okay, let me shift my
2214
02:31:33.920 --> 02:31:37.680
paradigms to understand what they're going through. I know what rock Bottom looks like.
2215
02:31:37.719 --> 02:31:39.120
I know what guy was going through. I say, what, I
2216
02:31:39.239 --> 02:31:41.559
missed a game even though I was
going through My answer would be no,
2217
02:31:43.200 --> 02:31:46.399
I just I'm just I think different. We all screw up and we all
2218
02:31:46.440 --> 02:31:48.959
go through, but I'm not here
to judge his mental health or what he
2219
02:31:50.079 --> 02:31:52.959
and his you know, his girl
are going through about having their baby.
2220
02:31:52.040 --> 02:31:54.120
I would play up until I knew
that it was time to go have a
2221
02:31:54.159 --> 02:31:56.559
baby, and then I'd go get
on a plan. It happened to me
2222
02:31:58.120 --> 02:32:01.719
missed practice once, was there the
next day with cigars handing out to my
2223
02:32:01.760 --> 02:32:03.920
teammates, and went right back to
work. It's just maybe it's just that,
2224
02:32:05.399 --> 02:32:09.920
you know, everybody's thought process is
different. I'm just gonna tell you,
2225
02:32:09.719 --> 02:32:15.239
Zion will Williamson will never play a
full season. That's if that's hot.
2226
02:32:15.319 --> 02:32:16.680
Takers, have at it. I
don't ever play a full season.
2227
02:32:16.719 --> 02:32:18.360
I don't think that's hot. Take. You should on I think it's the
2228
02:32:18.399 --> 02:32:22.440
same thing about Anthony Davis. I
think you're gonna have a guy that we
2229
02:32:22.559 --> 02:32:28.559
say is ultra talented, phenomenal skill
set, but the mental toughness doesn't match
2230
02:32:28.600 --> 02:32:31.600
the physical toughness. I think they
and I don't even know how physically tough
2231
02:32:31.639 --> 02:32:35.799
he is physically talented. How's that? I don't know, But I'm not
2232
02:32:35.879 --> 02:32:39.000
here to tell him he should or
shouldn't be playing. But I know this.
2233
02:32:39.200 --> 02:32:43.520
I guess certain people were raised.
I mind, there wasn't a choice
2234
02:32:43.520 --> 02:32:46.479
when I was growing up. I
didn't have a choice when it came to
2235
02:32:46.879 --> 02:32:48.799
when you like I said, I
might And it's not a pat on the
2236
02:32:48.840 --> 02:32:52.559
back, yea. Even in the
summer league, well, my own man
2237
02:32:52.639 --> 02:32:54.520
said, we'll going here's a vacation. Are you going to play summer league
2238
02:32:54.559 --> 02:32:58.840
baseball and basketball and seven? On
the one summer we did three in one
2239
02:32:58.920 --> 02:33:03.120
day. We played a baseball game
at noon. Had had to then have
2240
02:33:03.239 --> 02:33:07.479
a three o'clock down in San Diego. From asking you about thirty miles,
2241
02:33:07.479 --> 02:33:11.879
we had three o'clock passing league seven
on seven in San Diego, like Helix,
2242
02:33:11.959 --> 02:33:13.479
I can't remember where it was,
and then we had to drive back
2243
02:33:13.559 --> 02:33:18.120
for at our gym for a seven
o'clock that night summer league basketball game,
2244
02:33:18.159 --> 02:33:20.760
and my dad said to me,
he said, you're going to everybody if
2245
02:33:20.760 --> 02:33:24.559
we have summer vacation and it conflicts
with your schedule and vacation us was like
2246
02:33:24.639 --> 02:33:28.440
driving to Disneyland, right or whatever
it was, then we're not. Then
2247
02:33:28.200 --> 02:33:31.840
you're not going right because you committed
to a team and got to do it.
2248
02:33:31.959 --> 02:33:33.879
And so I said, okay,
I'm in. And so I didn't.
2249
02:33:33.920 --> 02:33:37.680
I didn't go to summer vacation that
year, and the wa it worked.
2250
02:33:37.799 --> 02:33:39.559
That's the commitment, right, And
that's what my dad's was the message
2251
02:33:39.559 --> 02:33:43.239
he was trying to send. You
don't get to commit when it's convenient.
2252
02:33:43.079 --> 02:33:46.280
Sometimes, matter of fact, true
commitment is when it's not convenient. And
2253
02:33:46.879 --> 02:33:50.520
so I don't know what's going on. And I, like I said,
2254
02:33:50.840 --> 02:33:52.559
when when we tell somebody he wasn't
ready to play, you tell somebody that
2255
02:33:52.639 --> 02:33:54.920
from the stands, right or as
a fan. I don't know if a
2256
02:33:54.959 --> 02:33:58.120
guy sit in the locker room ready
to play. I could tell you how
2257
02:33:58.159 --> 02:34:01.159
a guy practiced that week when I
was honest team. And most guys I
2258
02:34:01.159 --> 02:34:03.079
don't get in their head what they're
going Some guys you look at, say,
2259
02:34:03.159 --> 02:34:05.000
damn, is he ready and goes
out and puts a show on.
2260
02:34:05.399 --> 02:34:11.559
I don't know what drives each guy. I know this from my vantage point.
2261
02:34:11.760 --> 02:34:16.239
Zion Williamson isn't my type of guy
when it comes to what I want
2262
02:34:16.319 --> 02:34:20.200
from my superstar. How's that easier
way to put it? Yeah, that
2263
02:34:20.559 --> 02:34:24.399
he's not. He's not my type
of guy that I feel like when we
2264
02:34:24.520 --> 02:34:26.159
ran through a wall. He may
just show up after the walls knocked down,
2265
02:34:26.319 --> 02:34:31.799
right, But boy, is he
talented and talent always trumps everything else.
2266
02:34:31.879 --> 02:34:35.000
Yeah, in people's stockings. And
so far this season, he's averaging
2267
02:34:35.000 --> 02:34:37.559
twenty two points a game. Dude, he can score anywhere. The question
2268
02:34:37.680 --> 02:34:39.639
is he's going to be on the
court. Just gen twenty two Dude,
2269
02:34:39.639 --> 02:34:43.319
he's capable of pumping in thirty plus
a game. Is that good? But
2270
02:34:43.440 --> 02:34:46.559
the commitment to making sure he's in
shape, to making sure his mental toughness
2271
02:34:46.639 --> 02:34:50.959
is there, to making sure he's
physically healthy, I think it's a process.
2272
02:34:50.040 --> 02:34:54.319
I I'll be shocked if he spends
his whole career in New Orleans.
2273
02:34:54.639 --> 02:34:56.680
You know, talking talking NBA basketball. Have you seen what the Sixers have
2274
02:34:56.760 --> 02:35:05.239
done? Yeah, they've won what's
a row without James Harden coincidence. Let's
2275
02:35:05.280 --> 02:35:09.079
talk about it next. A little
peaceful happy, Yeah, let's talk about

2310
02:37:41.040 --> 02:37:45.680

2311
02:37:45.760 --> 02:37:50.120
lot of Master's program because there's program
the Master's Program at Texas A and m
2312
02:37:50.399 --> 02:37:56.239
headed there after this segment and go
speak and spend the day and see if
2313
02:37:56.239 --> 02:37:58.479
I can say two things. It
might be smart, you know what I'm
2314
02:37:58.479 --> 02:38:01.000
saying. Looking forward to it.
Yeah, honored to be a part of
2315
02:38:01.040 --> 02:38:03.399
it. Thank you so well.
Head over to uh, you know,
2316
02:38:03.520 --> 02:38:07.079
the locker room, and you know, kick Jimbo in the ass and get
2317
02:38:07.159 --> 02:38:09.399
something going for the Maggie. I
don't think that's part of this trip,
2318
02:38:09.600 --> 02:38:16.760
it's gonna go enjoy, share a
little knowledge, you know, maybe let
2319
02:38:16.840 --> 02:38:20.600
them know that. You know what, let me ask you. You're in
2320
02:38:20.760 --> 02:38:24.559
you're in a class and you're an
aspiring sport, you want to be in
2321
02:38:24.680 --> 02:38:35.159
sport man sports somehow front office broadcasting. What do you think for you is
2322
02:38:35.159 --> 02:38:41.440
the number one thing you'd have to
do to be in it any sport?
2323
02:38:41.520 --> 02:38:43.600
I mean, what what do you
think to succeed to get in to get
2324
02:38:43.639 --> 02:38:48.360
in in any in any It's probably
applies to life. But since it's the
2325
02:38:48.399 --> 02:38:58.200
sport management, uh you know,
the master's uh department in sports sport management,
2326
02:38:58.280 --> 02:39:03.719
I'm curious, what would you number
one trait you probably need get it
2327
02:39:03.840 --> 02:39:09.520
to do that? Patients maybe,
but at that age, trying to teach
2328
02:39:09.559 --> 02:39:13.879
somebody patience help, that's going to
happen. Say you know, it could
2329
02:39:13.879 --> 02:39:16.239
be somebody in forty that's in the
matter of them back and guy like I
2330
02:39:16.520 --> 02:39:18.479
got mine right, But well,
I feel like I feel like nowadays,
2331
02:39:18.639 --> 02:39:22.600
like college kids need to understand that
it's all about who you know. You
2332
02:39:22.719 --> 02:39:26.959
have to network, and you have
to you have to make relate. You
2333
02:39:26.040 --> 02:39:30.239
have to men, not men,
but build relationships. Yeah, and they
2334
02:39:30.360 --> 02:39:31.920
and you can't just build them.
You got to sustain them right, correct,
2335
02:39:33.399 --> 02:39:35.840
because you never know when that person. I can't begin to tell you.
2336
02:39:35.040 --> 02:39:39.760
Yeah, when I started in television, how many guys that were in
2337
02:39:39.920 --> 02:39:50.479
gals that were brilliant in turn slash
PA's production assistants that are now making the
2338
02:39:50.559 --> 02:39:56.319
biggest decisions at networks. That are
the people that used to I mean sprint
2339
02:39:56.399 --> 02:40:01.479
down the hallways when you'd see the
commercial hand that shots sheet to Scott van
2340
02:40:01.600 --> 02:40:07.479
peld or Dan Patrick are now doing
the hiring and making decisions. And that's
2341
02:40:07.520 --> 02:40:11.200
why the respect that goes through.
But there's some really talented people. And
2342
02:40:11.239 --> 02:40:13.959
I got a new If you don't
like competition in the sports world number one,
2343
02:40:15.000 --> 02:40:18.079
if you're shy, if you're faint
of heart, I suggest you choose
2344
02:40:18.120 --> 02:40:22.959
another field of work because the competition
and starting out. Let's say you're a
2345
02:40:24.000 --> 02:40:28.159
broadcaster. I was fortunate graduated with
it. But having played football gave you
2346
02:40:28.239 --> 02:40:31.440
a different avenue to get in,
right, having played professional football to be
2347
02:40:31.440 --> 02:40:35.639
an analyst. But for the most
part, your first job unless you're really
2348
02:40:35.719 --> 02:40:39.200
lucky or know somebody Chris Collins,
worst kid, who's talent, Jack who's
2349
02:40:39.239 --> 02:40:43.719
good, or that you know what
I'm saying is you're probably started. You
2350
02:40:43.799 --> 02:40:46.479
may be doing radio and Sue fall
South Dakota. Nothing wrong with Sue falls.
2351
02:40:48.120 --> 02:40:50.319
So that patience goes with what I
was. Also part of it is
2352
02:40:50.440 --> 02:41:00.559
the ability to not only a just
but that you have to understand you're going
2353
02:41:00.639 --> 02:41:03.319
to be doing a lot of different
things, a lot of different places to
2354
02:41:03.319 --> 02:41:05.760
get where you want to go.
And you know what, I think the
2355
02:41:05.879 --> 02:41:09.760
number one trade for everybody on a
planet is in any job because you do
2356
02:41:09.840 --> 02:41:13.000
it every single day. What do
you think you do every single day in
2357
02:41:13.120 --> 02:41:16.360
your life, every day aside from
the brush your teeth, I get out
2358
02:41:16.399 --> 02:41:20.360
every single day. What do you
think it is? Talk to people?
2359
02:41:20.479 --> 02:41:24.479
You have to sell? Oh,
sell yourself? Yeah, you sell It
2360
02:41:24.520 --> 02:41:28.200
doesn't matter if you're I'm gonna say
communication, but selling yourself. Very similar.
2361
02:41:28.799 --> 02:41:31.319
If there's a girl you do you've
fell in and you've fallen in love
2362
02:41:31.360 --> 02:41:33.879
with, you fell in love with, don't you have to sell yourself to
2363
02:41:33.959 --> 02:41:37.120
her and that you're the guy and
it's going to sustain it? Right?
2364
02:41:37.600 --> 02:41:41.159
What about you want a job?
You got to sell yourself to the boss.
2365
02:41:41.280 --> 02:41:43.920
Yes, when we come on here
every day we are selling a product
2366
02:41:43.959 --> 02:41:48.680
that we think to be compelling and
have them listen and want them to come
2367
02:41:48.760 --> 02:41:50.719
back for you. It so it
doesn't matter. You have to be able
2368
02:41:50.760 --> 02:41:56.280
if you can sell what you do
every day. If you can't sell yourself,
2369
02:41:56.319 --> 02:41:58.200
I can't help you. Right.
If you can sell, you'll never
2370
02:41:58.319 --> 02:42:03.799
go without a job. Yeah,
I can learn any product. Like I
2371
02:42:03.920 --> 02:42:05.680
say, you send me the gas
and oil I don't mean it. Are
2372
02:42:05.719 --> 02:42:09.639
you send me the gas and oil
business Tomorrow? I'll learn the product and
2373
02:42:09.719 --> 02:42:13.079
I will be your number I mean
my philosophy. I'm going to be your
2374
02:42:13.159 --> 02:42:16.559
number one salesperson. I'm going to
win because I'll learn the product. The
2375
02:42:16.639 --> 02:42:18.639
Oh that is true. You may
know the product, but if you can't
2376
02:42:18.680 --> 02:42:22.239
sell, you're not doing me a
damn bit of good as a salesperson.
2377
02:42:22.639 --> 02:42:24.920
So the best people, I think
the best in all the common coward.
2378
02:42:26.000 --> 02:42:30.840
Let'm just using him as example because
TV you may hate his takes and think
2379
02:42:30.959 --> 02:42:33.399
what to hot take out the ass, but you know what he's good at.
2380
02:42:35.040 --> 02:42:39.559
He's smart, dude. He can
and he will convince you while you're
2381
02:42:39.600 --> 02:42:43.680
watching in that this is right and
he couldn't be any further from the truth
2382
02:42:43.719 --> 02:42:46.280
on a bet, but he'll convince
you that he got eight of him right,
2383
02:42:46.319 --> 02:42:48.360
when eight of them are wrong.
Yet he could sell sand to a
2384
02:42:48.440 --> 02:42:50.840
surfer. Yeah, that's a good
thing. I mean, that is a
2385
02:42:50.879 --> 02:42:54.520
compliment. So I think for young
people coming up, and I don't That's
2386
02:42:54.680 --> 02:42:58.600
just one thing I was thinking about
is if you can see if you can
2387
02:42:58.680 --> 02:43:03.319
do nothing else, but you'll always
have a chance to work and send and
2388
02:43:03.399 --> 02:43:05.200
if you can sell yourself, hell, you'll get jobs you shouldn't have got
2389
02:43:05.239 --> 02:43:11.680
because you could sell yourself you may
not even been qualified for. And you
2390
02:43:11.799 --> 02:43:16.639
better be patient on your part because
young people now well. Also, that
2391
02:43:16.799 --> 02:43:20.280
job that I was talking about to
fall South Dakota to be an on air
2392
02:43:20.399 --> 02:43:22.840
overnight. You know you're not making
one hundred thousand. I assure you,
2393
02:43:24.040 --> 02:43:30.639
no, No, it's got You
have to love it, right, this
2394
02:43:30.799 --> 02:43:33.040
is a unique situation. You're not
doing it just for a spy. You
2395
02:43:33.120 --> 02:43:35.920
got to love it. And it's
an easy business to love in the sports
2396
02:43:35.000 --> 02:43:39.799
world, because damn, you're doing
what everybody wants to do. Play talk,
2397
02:43:39.959 --> 02:43:43.760
coach, teach, hire and somebody
along the line, and one of
2398
02:43:43.799 --> 02:43:46.600
these you know, sport management programs
is going to go be a general manager
2399
02:43:46.639 --> 02:43:50.959
somewhere and you better be you better
be able to sell your program and your
2400
02:43:50.040 --> 02:43:52.399
stuff. I think that's the biggest
thing, especially in the sports world,
2401
02:43:52.399 --> 02:43:56.079
whether it's broadcasting, sports management,
front off is whatever, you gotta love
2402
02:43:56.159 --> 02:44:00.360
it. Like for me when it
comes can't comes to broadcast, radio,
2403
02:44:00.479 --> 02:44:03.440
TV media. I love this.
I left oil and gas to chase this.
2404
02:44:03.879 --> 02:44:07.200
I am convinced because I love this. Right, you're exactly right.
2405
02:44:07.280 --> 02:44:11.760
The aberration is people who don't love
something are still great at it. To
2406
02:44:11.879 --> 02:44:15.280
me, I think you can be
good at something for a long time if
2407
02:44:15.319 --> 02:44:18.639
you like it. Yeah I do. I agree. I don't think you
2408
02:44:18.719 --> 02:44:20.840
can be great at it for a
long time if you love it. Because
2409
02:44:20.200 --> 02:44:22.639
when that time comes, when you're
when you're sitting on the fence of do
2410
02:44:22.760 --> 02:44:24.959
I love do I want to do
this? Do I do it? The
2411
02:44:26.040 --> 02:44:28.360
lack of love takes away from the
preparation, which then affects the passion,
2412
02:44:28.399 --> 02:44:31.639
which then affects your ability to sell
yourself, which then affects your effort.
2413
02:44:33.079 --> 02:44:35.120
And before you know it, and
that's where the domino theory is kicked in.
2414
02:44:35.200 --> 02:44:37.879
And now you're now you're in a
chase mode the whole time, and
2415
02:44:37.879 --> 02:44:41.120
that's where complacency comes to set in. When you just like something. Ah,
2416
02:44:41.440 --> 02:44:43.799
it's like I think you said it
the other day we were talking about
2417
02:44:43.799 --> 02:44:46.319
CJ. Stroud that big win for
the Texans. There's the factor of oh,
2418
02:44:46.399 --> 02:44:48.760
we just want a big game.
We can relax a little bit.
2419
02:44:50.200 --> 02:44:52.000
That's the same thing in when you're
selling yourself. Oh I just made a
2420
02:44:52.040 --> 02:44:56.520
big sale here, cell gas.
I bought myself a little a little room
2421
02:44:56.639 --> 02:45:00.479
to to not you know, to
not have to bust my asses. When
2422
02:45:00.520 --> 02:45:01.639
you sell that first one, you
ride the moment and go get a second
2423
02:45:01.639 --> 02:45:03.920
one, right, and then you
get there's that aspect I think for you
2424
02:45:05.000 --> 02:45:07.040
and I like, damn, we
just got one. I want more.
2425
02:45:07.120 --> 02:45:09.799
Yeah. Well, that that's when
greedy's good, right, that's what as
2426
02:45:09.799 --> 02:45:13.959
long as you're doing it the right
and you know, honorable and fair to
2427
02:45:13.959 --> 02:45:16.040
your teammatestuff. But that's when that
being greedy. I want greed because you
2428
02:45:16.079 --> 02:45:18.280
know what I want, c J. Stroud And if you're him, I
2429
02:45:18.319 --> 02:45:22.239
want to throw for four seventy five
again and win, right, win first,
2430
02:45:22.319 --> 02:45:24.239
but this four seventy five with it. He may need to do that
2431
02:45:24.319 --> 02:45:28.399
to win. But I'm big on
I'm with you, I'm big on see
2432
02:45:28.440 --> 02:45:31.600
I will believe that you know,
while failure may drive you to success,
2433
02:45:31.680 --> 02:45:35.079
but once you're in success, it
also breeds success. It's like anything,
2434
02:45:35.079 --> 02:45:37.600
if you got, if you if
you a lot of money, you know
2435
02:45:37.600 --> 02:45:41.159
what it takes to make a lot
of money A lot of times is you
2436
02:45:41.239 --> 02:45:43.479
got to have in order. It
takes money to make money. You can't
2437
02:45:43.479 --> 02:45:48.040
you can't invest anything unless you got
something to invest in, right, But
2438
02:45:48.120 --> 02:45:50.680
if you're invested in it, And
that's what goes back to I said before,
2439
02:45:50.719 --> 02:45:56.360
intrinsic as opposed to extrinsic. I
think successful people and that I'm around
2440
02:45:56.360 --> 02:45:58.040
the most successful intrinsic believers. They're
not doing it for the money. They're
2441
02:45:58.040 --> 02:46:01.000
doing it because they love it and
then the money comes. Yeah, yeah,
2442
02:46:01.079 --> 02:46:03.879
definitely. Well good luck up there. I know you do it,
2443
02:46:03.120 --> 02:46:05.120
man, appreciate It'll be fun.

02:48:41.639 --> 02:48:45.159
Breaks off the Los Angeles Lakers won
twenty eight ninety four, and again they
2477
02:48:45.200 --> 02:48:50.479
host the Pelicans tonight. Not sure
if Zion's gonna play against the Rockets and
2478
02:48:50.520 --> 02:48:54.479
I we just talked about that.
He is a game time decision due to
2479
02:48:54.719 --> 02:49:00.159
personal reasons, So we'll have to
wait and see. Currently this season in
2480
02:49:00.280 --> 02:49:03.879
Zion twenty one point eight points,
so twenty two points a game, shooting
2481
02:49:03.920 --> 02:49:07.360
fifty percent from the field, free
throw sixty and then the big bright spot
2482
02:49:07.520 --> 02:49:11.600
for these Rockets Jalen Green Triple.
You've been watching these Rockets. You know
2483
02:49:11.639 --> 02:49:16.520
you're a big basketball fan. Indeed, I have. Man, I'm sorry
2484
02:49:16.559 --> 02:49:18.319
they put it they whooped the Lakers, ass man, you all right on
2485
02:49:18.399 --> 02:49:22.200
that one? Yeah, but I
loved it though. It was great to
2486
02:49:22.200 --> 02:49:22.760
see it. Man, I should
have went to that game too. I
2487
02:49:22.799 --> 02:49:26.639
should have. Man, well,
in that game, your boy Lebron James
2488
02:49:26.799 --> 02:49:31.280
eighteen points. Yeah, Dylan Brooks, Uh, he's like I can't say
2489
02:49:31.399 --> 02:49:35.040
clamped him because he still scores.
But yeah, you know it was.
2490
02:49:35.239 --> 02:49:37.280
It was a good game though.
It was fun. Do you like that
2491
02:49:37.399 --> 02:49:41.920
Dylan Brooks plays like that villain type? I do? You do like that?
2492
02:49:43.079 --> 02:49:45.200
I do? Yeah? I feel
like it gives him a little more
2493
02:49:45.280 --> 02:49:48.479
purpose, like an edge. Yeah, give to you know, be out
2494
02:49:48.520 --> 02:49:50.479
there, be aggressive. I like
I like that they added Dylan Brooks.
2495
02:49:50.639 --> 02:49:54.719
It just I think to me,
it just goes into what em Udoka is
2496
02:49:54.719 --> 02:49:58.319
trying to do, and that is
preach more defense, in which we've seen
2497
02:49:58.399 --> 02:50:03.399
again, I just read off those
games that they've won, and they held
2498
02:50:03.440 --> 02:50:07.319
the Kings to eighty nine points.
They held the Kings again the next night
2499
02:50:07.440 --> 02:50:09.040
or two nights later to ninety seven, and they held the Lakers in ninety
2500
02:50:09.079 --> 02:50:13.040
four. That's that's tough. Yeah, So the defenses, uh starting,
2501
02:50:13.879 --> 02:50:16.600
Yeah, defense is starting to have
an uptick, and you can tell that
2502
02:50:16.680 --> 02:50:20.520
these Rockets are starting to buy.
And Jalen Green has played really good basketball
2503
02:50:22.200 --> 02:50:26.159
for these Houston Rockets, and I
think we all kind of knew that he
2504
02:50:26.319 --> 02:50:30.680
was going to be the leading guy
for the team. He's averaging just over
2505
02:50:30.799 --> 02:50:37.120
nineteen points Alpah and she Goon leading
the team in rebounds, gets around eight
2506
02:50:37.200 --> 02:50:39.959
to nine a game. And then
of course Fred van Vliet, I think
2507
02:50:41.000 --> 02:50:43.639
he's the point total hasn't really been
there, which I don't think that's what
2508
02:50:43.840 --> 02:50:48.159
his Oh I take that back.
It's about about sixteen points a game.
2509
02:50:48.200 --> 02:50:52.840
But the assists. Assists are way
up there. He's averaging almost nine yeah,
2510
02:50:52.280 --> 02:50:56.200
nine yeah, coming up on nine
assists a game. And then you
2511
02:50:56.280 --> 02:51:00.479
know some other guys like I would
like to see Jabari Smith a little more
2512
02:51:00.520 --> 02:51:03.319
involved. He's averaging fourteen points a
game. Look, it's still young in
2513
02:51:03.360 --> 02:51:07.120
the season, but you gotta like
the optimism what we've seen from these Rockets,
2514
02:51:07.200 --> 02:51:11.399
especially here late and again Albria and
Shangoon. We talked about him a
2515
02:51:11.440 --> 02:51:16.479
lot this offseason, and you wanted
to see how he would be implemented into
2516
02:51:16.520 --> 02:51:20.799
this offense with im Udoka. We
didn't really see it under Steven Silas.
2517
02:51:20.840 --> 02:51:24.559
Sometimes the ball ran through him,
sometimes it didn't. Sometimes he played,
2518
02:51:24.600 --> 02:51:24.360
sometimes he didn't.
