WEBVTT 1 00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:28.719 Good evening, everybody, and welcome to another edition of Fire Up. And 2 00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:33.960 we're talking. My town is the title tonight. Stay tuned to find out 3 00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:38.960 what that means. I have an awesome panel tonight. In fact, I 4 00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:44.119 have a newbie to the Fire Up Show. But she is not new to 5 00:00:44.159 --> 00:00:47.520 me. She is dear to my heart. She is one of my chicks 6 00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:53.960 and saucy girls. It is Jen, Hi, Jen, thank you for 7 00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:02.119 having me. I appreciate it. You betcha and back again for more is 8 00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:04.760 Ralph Williams. Hi raighty. Thanks Candy. It's great to be here. 9 00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:11.439 It's great to have you. Thank you, mister Jeremy, who's been celebrating 10 00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:18.840 for I don't know how many days now, strange Jeremy, probably since we 11 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:23.879 won the division. Well that's a lot of weeks. I can't count it 12 00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:29.879 all over. Forty days. Awesome, awesome. We'll congratulations to your Detroit 13 00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:33.680 Lions because they're still live. And let's let's start with that. Let's start. 14 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:38.920 Let's start the show with talking about NFL playoffs. I'm gonna let Ralph 15 00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:42.439 start and we're gonna talk about well, we're gonna start with the Lions game, 16 00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:46.640 even though that's not the first game on Sunday, but we're gonna start 17 00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:49.599 Lions game. Well, I think this is gonna be a good matchup, 18 00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:55.519 Candy. I like Detroit in this because Dan Campbell has his team, you 19 00:01:55.560 --> 00:01:57.560 know, ready to go. I would like to see them go to a 20 00:01:57.640 --> 00:02:04.760 super Bowl this year because Dan Campbell's about to lose his coordinators. Both of 21 00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:07.759 them are up for some coaching jobs. Ben Johnson's about to go somewhere and 22 00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:13.479 you know, so you know, and Aaron Glenn's been interviewing as well. 23 00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:16.879 So I'd really like to see that happen. Because again, I like Dan 24 00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:21.759 Campbell like a style. I like the way he has his team ready, 25 00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:25.240 fired up and all set to go, you know. And I think Detroit's 26 00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:31.280 gonna win this game, but it's gonna be a dogfight. Miss Jen, 27 00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:38.199 What do you think about that Lion in the San Francisco game? Okay, 28 00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:45.639 so here's my thing. I really want the and the forty nine ers to 29 00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:50.560 win. And I'm really sorry Jeremy, I'm really sorry, Ralph, I'm 30 00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:58.240 sorry, Mel, I'm sorry Scott. However, I really really really want 31 00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:02.360 this for Steve Wilks, very, Sam Darnold and my man, my man, 32 00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:07.879 my crush that is engaged to another woman because I'm married to somebody else. 33 00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:13.639 Christian McCaffrey to win and get a ring, so they can do exactly 34 00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:21.319 that Jeremy, so they can do that to David Tepper, because honestly, 35 00:03:22.360 --> 00:03:25.520 Christian kind of deserves it too, kind of deserves it. He's had what 36 00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:30.319 touchdowns ever in every single game since he's been with the forty nine ers, 37 00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:35.919 and he I don't know, he's the only one of three that's ever been 38 00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:38.879 running backs, that's ever been in the thousand thousand club. People have short 39 00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:44.360 changed him because of that tool. Matt Role and Candy you know how much 40 00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:46.479 I love him. Jeremy, you know how much I love him too, 41 00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:51.800 And because he was jealous, That's all I can think of with Matt Roll 42 00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:57.759 and Christian McCaffrey, and I just I want this to them so bad, 43 00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:00.479 like I rarely do. I won it for the Lions, so I'm actually 44 00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:04.479 really torn. I honestly, I think it's gonna be who has the ball 45 00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:10.719 last, and Jordan and Brock Purdy has to step up his game because Jordan, 46 00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:14.159 loved my humble opinion, outplayed him last week with the exception of two 47 00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:19.800 balls two balls. That's runned Green Bay from winning. Last week, it 48 00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:25.079 was two interceptions and a punt to end the game in their last three drives. 49 00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:32.480 But here's what I think of that last take. It I still love 50 00:04:32.519 --> 00:04:35.439 you. It has nothing to do with you. I love you. I 51 00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:41.879 love you. At the same time, news just came out that debo is 52 00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:46.600 out. That's okay. Rock parties yet to win a game with Deebo not 53 00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:51.399 starting. Feed Christian, but I don't care. I let them feed Christian. 54 00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:58.399 What is the Detroit Lions second best in the league at I don't know, 55 00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:02.800 person number one the league dropping the run and running backs and screen passes. 56 00:05:04.279 --> 00:05:08.759 Christian is a different running back than the Lions usually go up against. 57 00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:14.439 We went up against a few of them this year. You haven't got a 58 00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:20.959 good Christian is a five generational player. I don't care. I love Christian. 59 00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:24.959 I loved him in college. I loved watching him. But guess what 60 00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:29.759 the buck stops here. It's just like Matt Stafford coming home to Detroit. 61 00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:38.279 Yeah, y'ad's off. Seriously, he did a great job in that game, 62 00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.560 and I'm not taking anything from him. But we're gonna do exactly like 63 00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:44.879 we've done the last two games. We're gonna let one wide receiver eat. 64 00:05:44.920 --> 00:05:46.720 We're gonna shut down the run game. There has not been a single running 65 00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:57.399 back all season that's gained one hundred all purpose yards versus Detroit, but you 66 00:05:57.480 --> 00:06:02.040 all have one and usually they stink. No, I'm just sand Jeremy. 67 00:06:02.439 --> 00:06:05.720 I don't care. It's going to be a very tight game. Yeah, 68 00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:12.000 it's gonna be a dogfight. Yeah. Literally, I do really want those 69 00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:18.319 for my Carolina guys. I really do, truly. But at the same 70 00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:27.000 time, and you need it for your city. San Francisco's won enough super 71 00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:34.399 Bowls, but not my people. It's Detroit's turn to get rid of the 72 00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:40.720 Bobby Lane curse. Bobby Lane curse has been removed because ever since Jeff Daniels 73 00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:46.199 and Peyton Manning did that on Peyton's place and places last year, right just 74 00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:49.399 before Week eight, when we traded away t J. Droppinson. Uh, 75 00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:57.879 that's what. We've lost a total five games this year, won two games 76 00:06:57.920 --> 00:07:04.000 after that. We've only lost seven in games since that week seven games, 77 00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:08.120 and at no time have we lost two games in a row, and we 78 00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:15.879 have yet to trail in the playoffs in any game, either had the lead 79 00:07:16.079 --> 00:07:20.399 or tied the entire time. That's all I got to say. Well, 80 00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:28.879 as a Green Bay Packer fan who just played San Francisco, and I would 81 00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:34.680 say San Francisco did not beat us. We lost. We were the better 82 00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:41.680 team in that game, and we made some mistakes. I'm gonna say one 83 00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:46.879 of our mistakes was Matt Leffleur calling the fourth down. I think it was 84 00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:53.360 the was it the third series where or the second series where Jordan Love tried 85 00:07:53.399 --> 00:08:01.240 to go for it on fourth and one from like and and he went for 86 00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:05.199 it and they ran right up the gut. Well, San Francisco knew what 87 00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:09.439 we were going to do, and they blocked us, and they stopped us. 88 00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:13.399 The only good thing that came out of that is y'all heard Eric Armstead 89 00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:20.240 on that play. We did. But so coming away from the first quarter 90 00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:26.160 with only six points and we were inside the twenty what all three? I 91 00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:31.720 mean? I yeah, we lost that game. Yes, Jordan threw an 92 00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:37.000 interception at the end, but and Dab Sweeney Dab went out in that game, 93 00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:43.000 I think, And I shouldn't say that. I know San Francisco can 94 00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:48.720 be be there. Can you stop that the run game? And you put 95 00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:56.320 pressure on party, and those are the keys to Detroit winning. Now with 96 00:08:56.399 --> 00:08:58.960 only two guys had on Purty the whole game, but you were raking them 97 00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:05.320 run out of the pocket an uncharacteristically off kilter if I remember right, correct, 98 00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:11.519 Yes, yes, I'll say this green Law, and my opinion, 99 00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:16.679 green Law is who won it for the forty nine ers because he's the one 100 00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:22.159 who got the two interceptions. Jordan Love's biggest mistake in my opinion was the 101 00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:28.480 crossbody. But still I was thinking, okay, you lose force when you 102 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:35.000 go cross body. Yes, it was still a really really pretty ball. 103 00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:41.279 I mean it looked pretty gitting there. It sure did. I mean that 104 00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:45.600 ball was beautiful. It was a spiral. You could tell the strength he 105 00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:48.080 has because that's all shoulder and arm. That has nothing to do with your 106 00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:52.639 legs. He was running in the opposite direction. He threw off the front 107 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:56.399 foot across his body with that shoulder, and it went thirty yards down the 108 00:09:56.440 --> 00:10:01.919 field for the first down they needed after the mm hmm. But it was 109 00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:07.960 only four yards short because it actually needed to travel thirty four. That was 110 00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.440 it. I will say it was also a largely defensive game. So when 111 00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:15.879 you agree, Candy, that was largely defensive because it was a very low 112 00:10:15.879 --> 00:10:18.679 scoring game, even in the first quarter the forty nine ers, Hell, 113 00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:22.759 do you guys to just a field goal in the first quarter. Yeah. 114 00:10:22.759 --> 00:10:26.639 And then also too, you have two high powered offenses as well. Yeah, 115 00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:31.679 you have Green Bay and San Francisco both have good offenses. And you 116 00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:37.000 know, Jordan Love has become a better quarterback this year. You know, 117 00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:41.879 my co host and Jim Fraser always praises him when he hears Jordan Love's name. 118 00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:43.399 You know, he says he's going to be a you know, a 119 00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:46.799 really good quarter and he has turned into a good quarterback. It's just a 120 00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:52.240 some uh. You know that fourth and one that Matt Lafleur called that play 121 00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:54.200 up the middle, Candy, I agree with you. That was a bad 122 00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:58.799 play call. And then and then you know, that's why I said they 123 00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:01.799 beat themselves with play. And I always say on fourth and one when you 124 00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:09.320 know you're going to eat it, and he definitely ate it. So the 125 00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:15.799 one thing I will say about the Detroit Lions is that they need to use 126 00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:18.600 all their weapons and they need to be playing in their a game. Jared 127 00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:24.120 goar wis be playing a good game in order to beat San Francisco's defense. 128 00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:28.639 He can do it, but he cannot be pressured that much. He cannot 129 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:35.840 throw interceptions. He let's face it, when it comes down to this round, 130 00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:39.120 especially in the playoffs, you've got to do the little things right because 131 00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:43.639 if you start messing up the little things, they become big things. And 132 00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.159 that's part of the problem with what happened at the Green Bay game. We 133 00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:50.200 did a lot of little things, had a lot of little penalties that kept 134 00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:54.399 us from getting where we needed to go, and that's what kept us from 135 00:11:54.440 --> 00:12:00.399 winning this time. This roune, you have to be on your game and 136 00:12:00.440 --> 00:12:05.320 doing the little things right in order to advance to the next round. You 137 00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:11.159 got to have a perfect you got to have I mean, Ben Johnson is 138 00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:15.000 about to become a head coach if he blows this game by making bad play 139 00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.559 calls and stuff like that, Where does this go for Ben Johnson? You 140 00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:20.720 see what I'm saying. You know, look at dan Quinn don in Dallas. 141 00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:24.720 Dan Quinn had right after that game, he didn't get no more coaching 142 00:12:26.120 --> 00:12:31.039 interviews because because of that that that game against Doc Green Bay. So what 143 00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:35.440 I'm saying is is when you do that, that's you know, can't have 144 00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.600 a bad game if you want to be a head coach. Okay, First 145 00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:43.120 of all, dan Quinn is famous for doing dan Quinn things like losing very 146 00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:48.360 winnable games. We know this from and Lena. He's part of the reason. 147 00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:54.000 Well, he was one of the redeeming factors for Leana for me, 148 00:12:54.600 --> 00:13:03.440 right, but he hated Lena. But I like the city. But where 149 00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:07.639 do you all think that Johnson is gonna go? Because I think there's only 150 00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:13.759 two head coaching positions left open now. I honored Washington today. Washington is 151 00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.559 not doing any more interviews with any coaches. They are waiting for the Lions 152 00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:20.519 to be out of the playoffs to hire Ben Jonson. Yes, that that 153 00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:28.480 is what was rumored all across all the NFL network stuff. AG still has 154 00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:33.480 an interview lined up with Seattle, so I think if they do have one 155 00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:37.399 more interview schedule with dan Quinn, but they postponed it three times because they're 156 00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:41.639 waiting for AG to be available to see if he wants to go there first, 157 00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:45.639 I believe. So I think that's what's gonna end up happening, is 158 00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.399 AG will go to Seattle and Ben Johnson will end up in Washington. The 159 00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:54.960 last two jobs available. Awesome, and that's great, and that's wonderful. 160 00:13:56.759 --> 00:14:00.720 And the only thing I can say is thank God, we'll get too compensatory 161 00:14:00.799 --> 00:14:05.600 picks for ag when he gets his head coaching job. Now, well, 162 00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:09.600 here's my question. What if you guys don't make it to the Super Bowl. 163 00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:11.720 I'm just speaking in high probably I'm not watching it. Do you think 164 00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:15.639 Ben Johnson would still leave or do you think he would stick it out one 165 00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:20.600 more year. That's a good question, It is a good question. But 166 00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:22.960 I don't think either one of them is gonna stick around. I really don't 167 00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:30.720 because coordinator money is half of what base starting salary of a head coaches. 168 00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:37.039 And the rumor that Ben Jonson asked for fifteen million was such poppy cock. 169 00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:45.039 It was shot down days later that David Tepper deal with me being up just 170 00:14:45.080 --> 00:14:50.600 to make David Tepper go, well, we're not getting him. I wouldn't 171 00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:56.600 work for them if you pay me double. My buddy wanted me to apply 172 00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:03.919 for the Panthers job. I will see this actually, and this just maybe 173 00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:07.320 me looking through rose colored lenses, because I literally have the oak Lea's with 174 00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:16.279 rose colored lenses. But I have a feeling that temper throwing that drink, 175 00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:18.440 because I don't actually think he threw it at the fan, because if you 176 00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:24.360 look at the video, he threw it at the backsplash and so. And 177 00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:28.879 I'm not defending David Tepper because he's done a lot of numbschold things, and 178 00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:31.559 I'm mad at him mainly because he did not get rid of that roll fast 179 00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:37.519 enough. Who was a tool and he But I hope that was his come 180 00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:43.120 to Jesus moment. I truly do, because I think he actually does want 181 00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:48.279 the Panthers to succeed. He's too passionate, he's too involved, and he 182 00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:52.360 needs a good therapist to tell him to back off. Oh he you know 183 00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:56.000 something, Jen, He should be pretty smart and educated. He has a 184 00:15:56.039 --> 00:16:00.919 degree with Carnegie Mellon University, one of the most expensive the universities in the 185 00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:04.120 United States in the world. Actually, right here in Pittsburgh, many buildings 186 00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:08.600 that's Carnegie Mellon are dedicated in his name. That there's Tepper buildings all over 187 00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:12.519 the place here for Carnegie Mellon. So I thought, maybe, you know, 188 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:15.960 he's he's educated. I figured maybe he'd have, you know, enough 189 00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:23.559 common sense to run a football team. Actually, even the Steelers minority owners. 190 00:16:25.159 --> 00:16:30.480 I know the minority owners when they were voting on Tepper getting the Panthers 191 00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:34.279 voted against him because they didn't think he was mature enough to own a teammate. 192 00:16:36.639 --> 00:16:40.399 Wow. Wow. Keep in mind he was one of the part of 193 00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:45.080 the small sect of the minority owners of the Steelers that wanted to Trader fire 194 00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:52.679 Mike Tomlin about ten years ago. Yes, yeah, ownership Mike Tomlin. 195 00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:56.840 The minority ownership still wants the fire. Well, yeah, but they're stupid. 196 00:16:56.360 --> 00:17:00.759 There's five minority owners right now trying to up there. Uh. They're 197 00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:03.200 stake in the team to try to overrule the uh or Rooney the second to 198 00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:07.319 get tom went out of there. I think that's happy, Patty Grimes in 199 00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:11.680 response, Yeah, it is, you're right, chairman. Yeah, he 200 00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:18.559 wasn't asking fifteen million for Carolina. He was asking twenty. Wow. You 201 00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:23.519 know what, Well, sorry, Guindy, that's that's okay, finished your 202 00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:27.960 thought. I was just gonna say one thing Tepper did differently this year then 203 00:17:29.240 --> 00:17:36.880 he's done the last what five hiring cycles. Was a he did use He 204 00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:41.480 didn't use a fan favorite to be the interim head coach. That was smart 205 00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:48.000 because we're so mad at him about the whole world situation. But we what 206 00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:51.960 nothing, I was joking. I was like, I don't know. But 207 00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:59.160 then I think he he hired Sportsology, and he hired Sportsology to find a 208 00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:03.119 new head coach for the soccer for Charlotte FC and then for the Caroline and 209 00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:08.839 Panthers. But I wonder how much he used Sportsology in this since Dan Morgan 210 00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:15.200 or new GM and canals go so far back? Is that Dan Morgan, 211 00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:19.640 the former linebacker? Uh huh, yeah, there you go. Yeah, 212 00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:25.759 I knew the name sound familiar very much. I was like, I was 213 00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:29.200 like, I used to have that football card and that wasn't like. I 214 00:18:29.240 --> 00:18:33.000 don't think that higher for Dan to be GM was like to give like the 215 00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:41.480 Panthers fans, like the ones like my dad and I sentimental, because we 216 00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:45.119 don't want sentimental anymore. When we have less than six thousand people go into 217 00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:52.680 a game, there's an issue we won't win. And Dan Morgan has literally 218 00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:59.640 started as a scout and worked his way up. So okay, Well, 219 00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:07.599 there's another playoff game on Sunday, and in this features the two most talked 220 00:19:07.640 --> 00:19:15.119 about quarterbacks I think Sea La Mark Jackson and Patrick Mahomes. Yeah, the 221 00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:22.400 Chefs versus the Ravens. We are gonna start with smoking Jeremy b the Chefs 222 00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:27.880 versus the Ravens. I say that because it seems lately to get into the 223 00:19:27.880 --> 00:19:33.559 playoffs and win their division, that the Chiefs got an awful lot of refel 224 00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:37.720 here in there. Things that were called against them early in the season when 225 00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:41.720 they were struggling, that wasn't being called through like the last six seven weeks 226 00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:47.880 while they went on their little win streak. Will the NFL let the Ravens 227 00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:52.920 beat Patrick Mahomes, the golden boy of the NFL with the golden girl up 228 00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:59.319 in the stands who loves Travis Kelcey. I just hope he doesn't play as 229 00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:06.839 flat as he as his girlfriend. Who's winning the game, Jeremy, Uh, 230 00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:10.920 I got the cheap just because of that. Because there's gonna be something 231 00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:15.319 controversial that will come out after the game. It's gonna be some call that 232 00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:19.960 either goes against or for the Chiefs. I just got this feeling it's gonna 233 00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:23.119 be like a three point when its not gonna be. They're gonna be down 234 00:20:23.160 --> 00:20:30.720 by four points and get a touchdown because of some call. So I have 235 00:20:30.799 --> 00:20:33.119 to go to the chat room because we've had a numerous people chatting and I 236 00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:36.480 want to get a couple of these out there. And I know that they're 237 00:20:36.519 --> 00:20:40.319 still talking about the what we were talking about. Let's put some of these 238 00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:44.319 up here. James Verges, it depends have been once to leave. He's 239 00:20:44.359 --> 00:20:48.920 been in OC for two years. Head coaches a very different job. Axel 240 00:20:48.039 --> 00:20:52.720 was Axel, Slash was Slash. Ag is ready for head coach. I 241 00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:57.559 think I agree too because that vote that came up a couple of weeks ago 242 00:20:59.319 --> 00:21:04.039 that gave a g and it wasn't for best coordinator, it was for most 243 00:21:04.440 --> 00:21:10.559 like coordinator in the NFL. And I don't think he just got defensive votes. 244 00:21:10.599 --> 00:21:14.880 I can think of five offensive teams and players that probably voted for him 245 00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:19.200 too. Kemball Rick every day above ground is a win. But the fun 246 00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:23.519 part will be when the Lions kicked San Francisco's ass and we made sure our 247 00:21:23.720 --> 00:21:33.960 ballam doesn't get both titles. That's great. I could help it. James 248 00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:37.799 Urges, I agree. Okay, Okay, so who did you say was 249 00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:45.559 one of the Kansas City the chefs? Okay, that's the rest the chefs? 250 00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:48.799 Okay, Miss Jen what are your predictions and what are you thinking of 251 00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:53.160 this game? Candy, you know my thoughts. I okay, I'm gonna 252 00:21:53.200 --> 00:21:59.759 profest this with saying Lamar Jackson deserves his time to shine, truly he dies. 253 00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:10.799 Patrick Mahomes has that playoff mentality that is pretty much untouched. And I 254 00:22:10.839 --> 00:22:14.880 mean he's already surpassed the goat and numbers and people don't like it when I 255 00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:18.160 say that. And I will only say Tom Brady is the go to the 256 00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:25.200 playoffs, but he Patrick Mahomes has that mentality. I do think the Ravens 257 00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:30.759 deserve their chance to shine. And I will say Jeremy that the heart Travis 258 00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:36.240 sent was to Jason and not to not to Taylor. Mm hmm, because 259 00:22:40.680 --> 00:22:44.920 but that's just my opinion. Now as we know, Candy, our friend 260 00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:48.839 Carry will say that the Chiefs have been playing on borrow time. But when 261 00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:52.160 you she even did some a deep dive and she messaged me and she was 262 00:22:52.200 --> 00:22:56.119 like, jan you're right. She was like his numbers. I was like, 263 00:22:56.279 --> 00:23:00.480 yeah, So I think it's going to be another tech game. I 264 00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:04.880 think it's gonna be a very fun football weekend. It's gonna be helpful because 265 00:23:04.920 --> 00:23:10.319 even though I have I don't have a dog in the fight with the AFC 266 00:23:10.400 --> 00:23:19.000 championship whatsoever. Go AFC. But and I want, like I want the 267 00:23:19.039 --> 00:23:23.480 forty nine ers win for like four people, so you know, but that's 268 00:23:23.599 --> 00:23:29.359 just me. Okay, mister Ralph, what do you think about this game? 269 00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:33.519 I think Kansas City is going to win because Andy Reid and I hope 270 00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:37.359 Matt Nagy gets his act together for the offensive coordinator. They come out with 271 00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:41.599 a good game plan. John Harball has a bad habit of make him boneheaded 272 00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:45.960 coaching mistakes and playoff games. I've seen him do it many times. Uh, 273 00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:48.359 he's going to try to go forward on fourth and one and have to 274 00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:52.559 eat it like he's done against the Steelers and several other playoff games. So 275 00:23:52.680 --> 00:23:57.039 I'm taking h Kansas City in this game. Lamar Jackson the only thing he's 276 00:23:57.039 --> 00:24:00.559 good for is running with his feet. He's i'm one of a better passer 277 00:24:00.599 --> 00:24:06.200 than what he was, but he's not that great like Patrick Mahomes. And 278 00:24:06.240 --> 00:24:10.119 as Jen mentioned, Patrick Mahomes has playoff experienced, super Bowl experience. He's 279 00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:14.160 been to both. So I think it's gonna be the Kansas City Chiefs. 280 00:24:14.200 --> 00:24:18.880 It's gonna be an interesting game. I'm probably thinking Kate Macy by ten points. 281 00:24:18.920 --> 00:24:21.599 It's gonna be, you know, another dog fight. But I think 282 00:24:21.599 --> 00:24:25.319 it's gonna be a pretty decent game. This We ought to be good for 283 00:24:25.359 --> 00:24:32.680 these games, and I think Baltimore is going to take it because I think 284 00:24:32.799 --> 00:24:37.119 home field advantage is going to swing it to them, and I think Lamar 285 00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:41.920 is on a I think Lamar is on a mission and I think he knows 286 00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:47.480 that his window, I think isn't going to be open for forever. I 287 00:24:47.559 --> 00:24:52.200 really think he's he's gonna pull it out because I think I see Kansas City 288 00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:56.599 is beatable this year and like here and like Carry has said on our podcast, 289 00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:03.880 they're on house money. I think this year that they're just beatable. 290 00:25:03.559 --> 00:25:08.920 I understand were you talking about Jen that Patrick Mahomes takes it to a different 291 00:25:10.039 --> 00:25:15.920 level during the playoffs. I just think they make they still make mistakes, 292 00:25:15.960 --> 00:25:22.319 and I think the home field advantage is gonna sway it. I think it'll 293 00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:25.559 be close, but I think home field advantage is going to sway it for 294 00:25:25.680 --> 00:25:30.440 Baltimore this game. But I'm looking forward to it. It's it's gonna be 295 00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:37.000 a good weekend of football and we can't always say that about sometimes these games. 296 00:25:37.839 --> 00:25:45.839 Jeremy and I especially, I wanted to say Merry Christmas. It's a 297 00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:49.559 little late, but all you Packer fans finally got what you wanted. Joe 298 00:25:49.640 --> 00:26:00.480 Berry was fired yesterday morning. Alujah I said she was like good better for 299 00:26:00.680 --> 00:26:04.279 Lions, Vikings and Bears fans. Rumor is they're hiring Matt Patresha. Oh 300 00:26:04.319 --> 00:26:12.079 good for real. There are so many rumors going around the other or that 301 00:26:12.359 --> 00:26:19.160 well Belichick was gonna come over and be defensive coordinator, so you can Ron 302 00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:25.359 River in your d C before Bill Belichick. Huh I see Ron rivera be 303 00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:30.799 in your d C before Bill Belichick. Yeah, yeah, n yes, 304 00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:36.000 kick. They tried to take him for a defensive coordinators called him up for 305 00:26:36.039 --> 00:26:38.759 the interview. He is number one, you're in the NCS and number two 306 00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:45.880 defensive coordinator. You can kiss my beep, Ron said that. Bill. 307 00:26:47.559 --> 00:26:51.240 Oh Bill, yeah, Bill, Yeah, Bill, and do that. 308 00:26:51.400 --> 00:26:56.079 I'm surprised Bill hasn't been picked up, honestly. Well, you know, 309 00:26:56.119 --> 00:26:57.480 he wants too much sad. He wants to run, He wants to run 310 00:26:57.519 --> 00:27:02.039 everything, and some some owner don't want to give up power. I think 311 00:27:03.119 --> 00:27:06.640 things like Kaddy wants his own gam he wants, you know, and that 312 00:27:06.799 --> 00:27:10.279 I can understand that, but sometimes there are teams out there that won't do 313 00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:22.200 that. True, No Matsnatricier for offense. See. So we are going 314 00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:26.599 to introduce a new segment tonight and that segment is the title of the show, 315 00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:32.160 It's My Towne. What I want each one of the panelists to do 316 00:27:32.759 --> 00:27:37.880 is to pick one topic that is right now in the headlines or in the 317 00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:41.000 news that you want to talk about about, either the town you currently live 318 00:27:41.039 --> 00:27:49.839 in or your hometown where you're from. So let's start with Ralph. Oh, 319 00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:53.559 thank you. H yeah, I h You know. The Steeler off 320 00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:59.279 season's big news here question is what are the Steelers going to do at quarterback? 321 00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:03.880 They've Mike mediocre, Mike Tomlin has already said that, you know, 322 00:28:03.960 --> 00:28:07.880 he Ken Kenny Pickett will be the start, the number one quarterback going into 323 00:28:08.920 --> 00:28:12.559 training camp. Are they going to keep Mason rude off? Can they afford 324 00:28:12.640 --> 00:28:15.720 to pay him or are they going to go somewhere else or he's or is 325 00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:19.440 he going to go somewhere else? That's the biggest question in the offseason. 326 00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:23.160 They have to fix both lines of scrimmage, especially the defensive line. Cam 327 00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:26.960 Heyward's getting old. So there's a lot of things going on in this offseason 328 00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:30.079 with the Steelers. We're gonna find out what happens, and that is my 329 00:28:30.519 --> 00:28:40.279 town pick there, Okay, miss Jen I already talked about he got literally 330 00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:45.680 Charlotte Sports News has not been as hoppin in the last seventy two hours. 331 00:28:45.440 --> 00:28:51.839 Like, I don't remember when it's been this happen. But I'm actually going 332 00:28:51.920 --> 00:28:56.720 to go a different avenue because I've already talked about Canalis and Morgan. But 333 00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:03.440 when you drafted Cam Newton, I didn't want Cam Newton because he was a 334 00:29:03.480 --> 00:29:11.400 hothead and he was done dumb stuff in college. Now, Katie Jeremy, 335 00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:12.759 as you know, I freaking love him. Just say you know, Ralph, 336 00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:15.480 I love him. I'm okay with him not being in the NFL anymore, 337 00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:25.319 by the way, Yeah, combine with him. However, that lesson 338 00:29:25.359 --> 00:29:29.640 taught me not to judge a book by its cover. When we traded Kemba 339 00:29:29.680 --> 00:29:33.279 a couple of years ago from the Charlotte Hornets to Boston, we got Scary 340 00:29:33.359 --> 00:29:37.119 Terry and a couple other guys, I was like, whatever, they're not 341 00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:42.559 gonna be as good as Kemba. We just traded Terry Rogier to the Heat. 342 00:29:42.799 --> 00:29:48.319 The Heat hate in me major price for Terry Rogier. There's a reason 343 00:29:48.359 --> 00:29:52.079 for that. Dude is a beast and I wish him all the luck in 344 00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:56.880 the whole wide road. I'm glad I never bought into any of the naysayers 345 00:29:56.880 --> 00:30:00.000 with him, but I just you know, Terry, best of luck. 346 00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:04.839 Kyle Lowry, Welcome to the Charlotte Hornets. Hopefully you have a positive impact. 347 00:30:06.119 --> 00:30:08.079 Maybe you know you take on Myles Bridges for me because I want them 348 00:30:08.079 --> 00:30:12.559 away from my team, but you know, hey, but that was what 349 00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:15.920 I was going to go with, So good luck Terry. You were a 350 00:30:17.000 --> 00:30:19.559 great twitch and purple and teal, So thank you for all of your time 351 00:30:19.559 --> 00:30:23.039 here. And I hope you were to ring with the Heat. And I'll 352 00:30:23.039 --> 00:30:30.160 never say that again about the Heat, never ever ever says you love taking 353 00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:33.960 more. And Nicole, well, there's a reason I live in Charlotte, 354 00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:40.079 not Miami. We talked a little bit of everything right now. It's the 355 00:30:40.279 --> 00:30:45.359 big, biggest news in your town. And Jen is from North Carolina and 356 00:30:45.400 --> 00:30:49.160 the Carolina Panther fans, so of course he's talking basketball. Well yeah, 357 00:30:49.400 --> 00:30:53.759 but I had already talked Ellice, and I didn't know. I'm sorry, 358 00:30:53.920 --> 00:30:56.960 I didn't know. It was all football, no, no, no, 359 00:30:59.319 --> 00:31:03.799 whatever you want. Because I had already talked about Dave Canalis coming. I'm 360 00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:07.720 actually on board with Dave Canalis coming in as the head coach. Tullly, 361 00:31:08.279 --> 00:31:15.839 I'm I was actually really happy Dan Morgan got this position. Maybe some photographs 362 00:31:15.880 --> 00:31:19.799 I've seen circulating online, he maybe the David Tepper whisper, which is what 363 00:31:19.839 --> 00:31:25.880 we need. Yeah, I just because I had talked so much earlier, 364 00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:32.960 I wanted to go different route. You're good, You're good, all right. 365 00:31:30.599 --> 00:31:36.119 He's gonna pull that Jedi mind trick on David Tepper. These are not 366 00:31:36.160 --> 00:31:45.440 the players you want. David. Do not turn on the TV during the 367 00:31:45.480 --> 00:31:49.480 draft. You will not be a part of the situation. Is undone. 368 00:31:49.599 --> 00:31:52.839 This is uh the South Florida Tribune, just to let you know where you 369 00:31:52.839 --> 00:31:57.839 can find us on YouTube, because that is who I write for, that 370 00:31:57.960 --> 00:32:02.160 owns the MotorCity Tribune, where you see those wonderful articles I post all over 371 00:32:02.240 --> 00:32:07.440 Facebook. I understand it's new faces for you, but we cover a little 372 00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:10.519 bit of everything. I just want to talk about this month in general for 373 00:32:10.640 --> 00:32:15.920 the state of Michigan, let alone, just Detroit. You got Michigan winning 374 00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:19.839 a national title for the first time since nineteen ninety seven when it was a 375 00:32:19.880 --> 00:32:24.960 shared title with three teams. Then you got, then you got right now, 376 00:32:25.960 --> 00:32:30.480 the Red Wings are playing so good they're in playoff contention. And then 377 00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:37.400 the Pistons broke their losing streak all in this month. Holy crap, miracles 378 00:32:37.640 --> 00:32:43.960 ever seen. They won a game. I mean, we got a great 379 00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:46.519 coach. The problem is the roster has been put together, has got the 380 00:32:46.640 --> 00:32:53.960 chemistry of water and oil. They're not playing well together. There is a 381 00:32:54.440 --> 00:32:58.400 trade rumor out there, and I pray to God it happens because I think 382 00:32:58.400 --> 00:33:00.799 it'll help us. Bogdana Bitch is a great player, and yes, he 383 00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:04.440 scores a lot of points and he does a lot of good things. He 384 00:33:04.559 --> 00:33:07.720 needs to be on a team that has a chance to make the playoffs. 385 00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:12.799 There is a trade to get him to Chicago and bring two players back to 386 00:33:12.880 --> 00:33:15.720 Detroit, role players, which is something we need. We don't have real 387 00:33:15.839 --> 00:33:20.839 role players here. Somebody that just fills the gaps and makes the chemistry work, 388 00:33:21.720 --> 00:33:27.599 and that's what we're missing. And Troy Weaver needs to go. But 389 00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:36.400 my God, the NFC Conference Championship game. If we win this, I 390 00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:39.920 think half of Detroit street lights are gonna get knocked down like they didn't run 391 00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:45.240 the National Championship. Might even see a couple of cars go on fire near 392 00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:52.119 abandoned houses to help the blight removal program. Oh my gosh, what a 393 00:33:52.240 --> 00:33:55.680 year. I mean, I literally I watched it with my sister. I 394 00:33:55.720 --> 00:33:59.720 could have went to the Lions then, and I thought sharing it with family 395 00:33:59.799 --> 00:34:05.960 men more because my brother in law is a great Lions fan. So I 396 00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:08.880 took my streaming services to my sister's house and we watched it over there. 397 00:34:10.199 --> 00:34:14.440 And I'm not gonna lie. I cried like a schoolgirl. That was the 398 00:34:14.519 --> 00:34:17.039 last ugly girl that waiting for the date to promin. It finally happened two 399 00:34:17.119 --> 00:34:23.320 days before. I was that guy. Don't make fun I'm not I'm saying 400 00:34:23.440 --> 00:34:27.880 I make a fun of myself. I cried for like fifteen to twenty minutes 401 00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:34.360 before I could talk to anybody. It was that emotional for me. That's 402 00:34:32.280 --> 00:34:37.400 am It still is a little emotional. I'm not going to go there anymore. 403 00:34:38.119 --> 00:34:44.199 What's done is done. But it's such an amazing feeling to know that 404 00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:51.480 our team has gone from stripped studs in twenty twenty one to conference championship possible 405 00:34:51.519 --> 00:35:00.760 winners two years later. Okay, my town, I'm going to go back 406 00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:08.159 to my hometown because, yeah, I'm not the biggest Dolphin Heat or Barolin's 407 00:35:08.159 --> 00:35:12.599 fan. I mean, I'm some of those fans, but you know, 408 00:35:12.679 --> 00:35:15.880 I'm from Wisconsin. So I got to go back to Milwaukee. And They've 409 00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:17.400 had a lot of things happen too, I mean, not as good as 410 00:35:17.400 --> 00:35:23.159 Detroit, let's face it, but the Brewers got a new first baseman, 411 00:35:24.239 --> 00:35:34.599 the Packers finally got rid of prevent defense Joe Berry as a coordinator. The 412 00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:38.719 biggest news, I would say right now, the biggest buzz is the fact 413 00:35:38.719 --> 00:35:45.719 that the Milwaukee Bucks quired Adrian Griffin, who was thirty one and ten with 414 00:35:45.199 --> 00:35:52.760 the second in the Eastern Conference, after just a short period of time, 415 00:35:53.360 --> 00:35:57.159 and then we go when we huire Doc Rivers, and there are a lot 416 00:35:57.159 --> 00:36:00.559 of people out there that are saying that is the definitely the wrong hire because 417 00:36:00.920 --> 00:36:07.159 Doc Rivers only did really well with the Boston Celtics, and then since then 418 00:36:07.280 --> 00:36:13.039 he has done nothing in the playoffs. He is six and ten in game 419 00:36:13.159 --> 00:36:21.119 sevens, but here is where I'm going to say give it some time. 420 00:36:22.199 --> 00:36:28.480 Because when you have Chris Middleton who's thirty two, you have Dame Damian Lillard 421 00:36:28.480 --> 00:36:31.639 who's thirty three, you have Brook Lopez who's thirty five, and Giannis, 422 00:36:32.519 --> 00:36:38.000 your time to win is now. We never should have feared Griffin, who 423 00:36:38.079 --> 00:36:44.800 is a young, inexperienced coach to coach a team of that. How should 424 00:36:44.800 --> 00:36:50.039 I say veteran presence? Right? You needed a You need a veteran coach 425 00:36:50.159 --> 00:36:54.639 the people respect and that can take you and keep you. Maybe there, 426 00:36:57.320 --> 00:37:05.119 maybe that hopefully Rivers will get us back to the championship game and back to 427 00:37:05.239 --> 00:37:10.599 championship winning. Time will tell, But I think the team, after having 428 00:37:10.639 --> 00:37:15.760 this inexperienced coach, that they needed someone that they can respect, that's been 429 00:37:15.800 --> 00:37:20.400 in the league, that's a veteran coach that they're going to be like. 430 00:37:20.800 --> 00:37:24.039 Yep, he's taken other teams to the championship. We need to respect him, 431 00:37:24.159 --> 00:37:27.639 we need to listen to him, and we need to come together as 432 00:37:27.639 --> 00:37:32.719 a team. And I respect Gianni's from coming out and saying my job is 433 00:37:32.760 --> 00:37:37.239 to lead this team and to play on this team. I have to and 434 00:37:37.840 --> 00:37:43.000 know that the GM is going to do what he thinks is best for the 435 00:37:43.119 --> 00:37:52.039 team as a whole and get the right coach for us. Go ahead, 436 00:37:52.119 --> 00:37:53.599 Jen, I can see you're already trying to say something. Now. I 437 00:37:53.719 --> 00:38:01.000 just have two questions. One was, wasn't Doc Rivers actually mentor a g 438 00:38:04.159 --> 00:38:07.960 He did? He did a little. In fact, there was some consulting 439 00:38:08.239 --> 00:38:20.679 that GM our GM talked to him about AG and I before they fired him. 440 00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:24.559 So I think. But one of the things I'm going to tell Jen 441 00:38:24.719 --> 00:38:31.000 is I've heard from numerous players that he was trying to devise too difficult to 442 00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:37.000 schemes, he was drawing up too difficult to plays. In fact, Giannis 443 00:38:37.039 --> 00:38:40.920 on one of the last games, was in the time out and he was 444 00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:46.679 drawing up to play. So I think I think Griffin kind of lost the 445 00:38:46.679 --> 00:38:52.039 locker room, lost some of the players. So I think that that's where 446 00:38:52.039 --> 00:38:55.480 I think the respect left, and that's where they needed to bring somebody in 447 00:38:55.920 --> 00:39:00.239 that the players could respect, because he's been in the league for a long 448 00:39:00.280 --> 00:39:02.800 time, and who else was going to get who else is out there that 449 00:39:04.440 --> 00:39:10.400 would fit that mold right? And then my other question was did you see 450 00:39:10.440 --> 00:39:16.440 the video of the players the day at the pre warm ups with Doc reverts 451 00:39:16.440 --> 00:39:22.519 first game. Yeah, I was like, I don't know how to interhurt 452 00:39:22.599 --> 00:39:28.440 this, but they did what they had to do. Okay, that was 453 00:39:28.559 --> 00:39:30.880 just my other question. No, I agree. I agree, And you 454 00:39:30.880 --> 00:39:37.960 know, sometimes it's okay to say we made a mistake, we made the 455 00:39:37.960 --> 00:39:40.119 wrong call, and we will need to correct it as soon as we can, 456 00:39:40.199 --> 00:39:45.119 because let's face it, it's still early in the season and they can 457 00:39:45.199 --> 00:39:47.880 still turn this. And I shouldn't say turn it around, because thirty one 458 00:39:47.880 --> 00:39:52.639 and ten is not a bad record, but when you're trying to go for 459 00:39:52.679 --> 00:39:55.880 the championship and you're trying to be the best and you have what you would 460 00:39:57.079 --> 00:40:00.400 every lot of people would say, is an elite team need to have results. 461 00:40:00.920 --> 00:40:07.239 And if if you feel that the chemistry isn't right, who do you 462 00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:09.840 turn to? If you think the team isn't motivated, who do you turn 463 00:40:09.920 --> 00:40:15.360 to? Right, That's where I would say, like the Packers with Joe 464 00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:22.199 Berry, he was losing his defense of players and he was losing that so 465 00:40:22.440 --> 00:40:25.639 there needed to be a change done. So I kudos to the Milalkey Bucks 466 00:40:25.639 --> 00:40:30.079 for making that change. And I know it was a big splash and everybody's 467 00:40:30.079 --> 00:40:35.199 gonna be talking about it and the results are yet to be seen. Right. 468 00:40:36.599 --> 00:40:40.599 Thanks for me with my questions, of course, anytime, I welcome 469 00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:45.159 them all, of course.
