14
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:14,120
the Bill Moran Podcast. Well,
hello and welcome. What a stressful

15
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,359
afternoon it's been. Now, if
you're on beta blocker, and imagine that's

16
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,519
the thing is Danny says to me
at one point, I'm on beta blockers,

17
00:01:21,519 --> 00:01:22,959
and I said, are you really? And he goes, well,

18
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,200
I'm on some kind of medication.
It's helping. He's like, why are

19
00:01:26,239 --> 00:01:30,359
you so calm? I'm on beta
blockers. Put on a lot of weight

20
00:01:30,439 --> 00:01:33,480
for it, though I'd rather like
be nervous and lose weight. Is that

21
00:01:33,519 --> 00:01:38,519
what it takes? Because the six
greg use and waters, Yeah, they're

22
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,079
good for the heart. They're good
for the heart. We are live in

23
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,719
Greg Connor's man cave, and I
don't know if we're are we streaming on

24
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,120
Facebook? We're probably not streaming on
YouTube. I probably should have started the

25
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,879
lot. That's right, don't even
worry about it. Well, if you

26
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,319
can, it'll be It would be
good because that way we can at least

27
00:01:55,319 --> 00:01:59,319
Facebook. That way I can just
grab the video later. But man,

28
00:01:59,599 --> 00:02:02,879
right at the end of the game, oh right, at one of the

29
00:02:02,879 --> 00:02:08,840
most crucial moments, it pay the
bill, No craigs. I've never seen

30
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:14,479
like every TV just pause, just
pause. Everything pawed. It went one

31
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,479
by one by one. That was
the best part. And it started like

32
00:02:17,759 --> 00:02:21,319
how many TVs are down? One, two, three, four five,

33
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:27,439
five TVs Fine all five and then
unfortunately Dan had his phone, so he

34
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,080
went he went live on his NFL
Plus. You can get the game.

35
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:31,840
My god, in the midst of
a jam, he went live and then,

36
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,280
uh so we don't have watched it
on Twitter. Oh my god,

37
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,240
I I lost my mind. Are
they on? I couldn't tell, buddy.

38
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:43,080
I apologize because it's right now.
No, no, not sorry.

39
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,840
I was just looking at was just
looking. I got to fix the shot.

40
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:51,080
See, I'm still I was so
stressed out you that game. I

41
00:02:51,159 --> 00:02:53,159
lost my mind. I couldn't believe
what happened. And then I and then,

42
00:02:53,199 --> 00:02:57,800
of course, who is the first
person? I blamed? Yeah,

43
00:02:57,879 --> 00:03:04,120
well what do you do? He
left twenty five minutes before that even happened.

44
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,000
He was gone, I do the
same thing. Yeah, like right

45
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:13,599
away? Your poson live here now, James? Wait all the time?

46
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,639
That was it all the time.
But your mom is sitting with us,

47
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:20,719
Craig, and your mom was so
wonderful because see you at one point was

48
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,280
very very patient as you were coming
around, and then I saw her almost

49
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,560
WinCE as you were going to high
five when something good happened. But he

50
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:32,479
gets very passionate passionate. Yes,
going to take my hand. It's when

51
00:03:32,479 --> 00:03:36,759
they kicked the field goal to go
up twenty seventeen. Yes, and then

52
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:42,120
she said be gentle you were I
wasn't at first, but then when I

53
00:03:42,159 --> 00:03:45,120
heard it, I was okay.
I don't want to it hurts. Well,

54
00:03:45,199 --> 00:03:46,639
yeah, I mean I don't want
her to not be able to drive.

55
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,879
I've never worried about that. I
worried about her coming back with the

56
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,719
right cross. Yeah that too,
all right. So now they win,

57
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:00,199
the playoff hopes are alive. Continue
or continue? Yeah, we say games

58
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,000
of playoff. Next week is a
big one. That's against Dallas, who

59
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,280
were playing tonight at home, baby
at home. Is this a four o'clock

60
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:12,680
again next week? Yes it is, yes, yeh in Buffalo for twenty

61
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,439
five. This is America's team coming
in. I don't know if they're America's

62
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,480
team anymore. I feel like the
Lions have become America's team for some reasons.

63
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:23,720
America's team got pounded today. I
know what is happening. Like the

64
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,759
Jets blew the Texans out. Nobody's
scored until until the third quarter. I

65
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,560
mean that game the killer is I
picked my pick of the week, like

66
00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:36,519
was Detroit minus three and a half
against the Bears. Yeah, you go

67
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,399
to Chicago. I mean you're the
number three seed. You guys have been

68
00:04:40,439 --> 00:04:44,360
playing strong, your defense is pretty
solid, your offense should score at least

69
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,079
twenty points, and they freaking shit, the bed Lions are going to lie.

70
00:04:47,519 --> 00:04:51,240
That's what they always do. Yeah, well, yeah, I mean

71
00:04:51,439 --> 00:04:56,839
I can't remember. I think it's. Kyle Bryant on NFL Network talks about

72
00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:02,639
he's the Lions are like the uncle
who never really fulfills his potential. He's

73
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:10,360
like the drunk but comes back and
then he himself up and Thanksgiving looking good

74
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:17,120
Christmas. He actually tells it,
he told he gave this scenario back in

75
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,279
September about the Lions, how they're
going good. They come into Thanksgiving dinner

76
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:26,720
because they've always played Thanksgiving, they
committed Thanksgiving dinner. And then he gets

77
00:05:26,759 --> 00:05:30,600
drunk at dinner and then he completely
turns into exactly the way he's always been.

78
00:05:30,959 --> 00:05:35,959
And what did the freaking lines doing
things exactly? That was another one

79
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:43,560
was because you know for years there
the perennial loser. They're like the who

80
00:05:43,639 --> 00:05:47,279
the glow the globe. John's always
washing, the Washington General, the Washington

81
00:05:47,319 --> 00:05:55,959
Generals of the Thanksgiving Day. I'm
a closet Lions fan because they have reminiscence

82
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,199
of the Bills fans. One is
Ralph Wilson was from Detroit. Well.

83
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,839
He was part part owner of the
Lions within family before he became the Bills

84
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:09,399
owner. He was part owner of
the Lions, and they just they get

85
00:06:09,399 --> 00:06:13,040
close and they never seem to win. And at least the Bills have been

86
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,439
in the Super Bowl. The Lions
have never been in the Super Bowl modern

87
00:06:15,519 --> 00:06:18,399
the modern day Super Bowl, the
Lions have never been in it. Closest

88
00:06:18,439 --> 00:06:24,319
they've come with the ninety one championship
game where they lost to Washington in Washington.

89
00:06:24,319 --> 00:06:26,920
That's the closest. They were the
last team also to beat the Cowboys

90
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,920
before they went on that Super Bowl
run. No kidding in the playoffs.

91
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,240
Yeah, all right, So talk
to me a little bit here, Greg,

92
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,399
because we haven't talked to you since
the Tyler Dunn article came out.

93
00:06:35,519 --> 00:06:39,759
You know three part thing, I
have not read the entire article. We're

94
00:06:39,759 --> 00:06:46,680
gonna have Tyler Dunn on Wednesday's podcast. He'll be on with us Interesting Insight.

95
00:06:46,879 --> 00:06:49,360
It made Saturday Night Live. We'll
play that audio on a little bit

96
00:06:49,439 --> 00:06:53,160
last night. They did make reference
to it on Saturday. It's exactly what

97
00:06:53,240 --> 00:07:00,000
he wanted, but I couldn't tell. I had so many feelings about it,

98
00:07:00,079 --> 00:07:02,120
and now I only read excerpts of
the article, not the entire thing

99
00:07:02,199 --> 00:07:05,920
yet, so I don't know.
But it felt almost like a bit like

100
00:07:05,959 --> 00:07:11,480
a hit piece in a way at
McDermott. But it seemed like this could

101
00:07:11,519 --> 00:07:15,680
be a lot of distraction. And
I said, if they win, this

102
00:07:15,759 --> 00:07:17,720
goes away. If they don't,
this is what the focus will be.

103
00:07:18,199 --> 00:07:21,319
And they did win today. I
think they have to continue to win.

104
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:27,319
But yeah, thoughts on that thing. Did you read it? I read

105
00:07:27,319 --> 00:07:30,439
the article? You did, I
got the heads up on it. I

106
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,800
read the article, and and you
know, the reference to the nine to

107
00:07:33,839 --> 00:07:41,199
eleven situation from my perspective and the
perspective of others, is that Why if

108
00:07:41,399 --> 00:07:45,639
his point was that Sean McDermott is
like an al Qaeda supporter, yeah,

109
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,920
which is which he's not, then
why reference it. Everybody knew he made

110
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:53,120
the comment. Everybody in the media
knew he made the comment. Twenty nineteen,

111
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,000
he apologized to the team and people
talked about it, and to bring

112
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,160
it up now, it's like,
is it as are you trying to use

113
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,759
it as a reflection of his leadership
because he was using it to try to

114
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:09,720
demonstrate leadership. Now, if you've
never been someone who was accountable and responsible

115
00:08:09,759 --> 00:08:13,959
for other human beings and their in
their livelihood, this guy has no eff

116
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,480
and clue about what leadership is.
Because when I looked at this is what

117
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,759
what when you criticize him in the
reference that he made. Now, look

118
00:08:22,959 --> 00:08:28,480
it was it a good reference?
No, it probably isn't, no flat,

119
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,360
but I but what he was.
I think we even said that,

120
00:08:31,439 --> 00:08:35,000
Danny. I think when we talked
about it was just like a I didn't

121
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,200
take it poor analogy? Yeah.
Yeah. The thing is he set it

122
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,519
up. He worked so hard.
He could tell you worked at this,

123
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:45,279
at this this illustration, and the
players weren't buying it. But at the

124
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,919
same time, I mean to me
it was like it was overblown. In

125
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,399
fact, it's the articles in three
pieces and three parts. This was on

126
00:08:52,519 --> 00:08:54,759
part two and it was deep into
part two. So if Tyler doesn't really

127
00:08:54,759 --> 00:08:58,399
wanted to use this to embarrass McDermott, he would have led off with it.

128
00:08:58,519 --> 00:08:58,879
He didn't. I mean, this
was in the middle, so I

129
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:05,480
leave it the Tyler Dunn took it
that seriously as far as the one from

130
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,879
everybody else. It's because it was
the most salacious. Yes, thank you,

131
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,759
and people love cancel culture and that's
all this is gonna this is gonna

132
00:09:13,759 --> 00:09:18,679
be huge. And and that's kind
of you know, again, what's the

133
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,279
what's the purpose and the point of
the reference, because for me, you

134
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,080
know, I talk about this all
the time. Is that common enemy,

135
00:09:26,159 --> 00:09:31,360
the common You can take people from
different perspectives, different political objectives, if

136
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:35,720
you come up with one common enemy, you will rally together to overcome the

137
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,519
common enemy. Yes, that's essentially
what mcderm was trying to say to these

138
00:09:39,519 --> 00:09:43,639
guys. And and in the reference
he was using is that US, the

139
00:09:43,759 --> 00:09:48,600
United States was their common enemy to
try it, and they overcame obstacles that

140
00:09:48,879 --> 00:09:54,480
seemed impenetrable at the time to overcome
that. That that the circumstances not is

141
00:09:54,519 --> 00:09:58,600
it again, is it a poor
reference? It's horrible, But you know

142
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:03,919
he was trying to garner a camaraderie
or a focus within his team, and

143
00:10:05,039 --> 00:10:07,919
as a leader, you try to
you try to do those things. The

144
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:13,759
other thing that I found to me
reflection of his inability to understand what leadership

145
00:10:13,799 --> 00:10:16,360
really means when you're a business owner
or you're a coach or something. He

146
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:20,799
said, everybody's he's always looking for
an escape. Yeah he did say that.

147
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:26,159
Well, he made it look like
other coaches had said I think former

148
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,559
coaches. Yeah, now we're saying
things like, yeah, he never did

149
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,159
this, or he didn't do that. I don't. But then I'm taking

150
00:10:33,159 --> 00:10:35,159
it as if you're a former coach, are you disgruntled in some way that

151
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:41,080
you're no longer there? You know, I've got about fifteen former attorneys.

152
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,200
Yeah, and they could say the
same damn thing about me, right,

153
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:48,440
but the bottom line and they do. Boy, I saw one of Greg.

154
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,159
I couldn't believe that that went.
That doesn't sound like Greg. I

155
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,679
gotta tell you, you know,
when it comes down to it, if

156
00:10:54,759 --> 00:10:58,840
you're if you're missing yourselves and you're
the CEO of the company, is it

157
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,799
you're her fault? It is his
fault. It's mcdermer's fault. And if

158
00:11:01,799 --> 00:11:07,000
I'm missing our sales projection and targets, it's my fault as the managing partner.

159
00:11:07,399 --> 00:11:11,720
But then I have to determine who's
in charge of that because and if

160
00:11:11,759 --> 00:11:16,120
you're not performing. Either I have
to do something to give you a performance

161
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,960
plan, an individual performance plan,
or I'm going to fire you. But

162
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,360
me, working with you and the
team, I have to determine can we

163
00:11:22,399 --> 00:11:26,919
get past that or not. If
we can't, you're gone. Now somebody

164
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:31,000
say, oh, he's the scapegoat. No shit, because that's your role.

165
00:11:31,039 --> 00:11:33,360
If you don't perform, if you
don't hit the expectations of what I

166
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,639
want, in the in the team
wants, you either have to demonstrate you

167
00:11:37,639 --> 00:11:41,240
can get there, or you're fired. He's the most powerful man in the

168
00:11:41,279 --> 00:11:45,360
history of the organization, even more
powerful than Tom Donahoe. And I'll think

169
00:11:45,399 --> 00:11:52,279
about that. McDermott is after after
and of course Terry Pagula because it used

170
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,480
to be that used to be the
pecking order will be the only and the

171
00:11:54,519 --> 00:11:58,879
head coach. Nowadays you're in an
arrow where the head coach actually could pick

172
00:11:58,879 --> 00:12:01,879
his own hand picked manager, which
he did. He brought in Brandon Bean.

173
00:12:01,919 --> 00:12:05,240
Now it's Brandon Bean's draft and his
personnel. But you know, McDermott

174
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,080
has a lot of saying that.
But at the end of the day,

175
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:11,360
according to this article, McDermott is
the guy in charge and they're winning in

176
00:12:11,399 --> 00:12:15,279
spite of him. And there's several
examples. And when like Greg you mentioned,

177
00:12:15,279 --> 00:12:16,960
like, you know, attorneys leaving
and stuff, these guys, these

178
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:22,159
assistant coaches, former assistant coaches were
leaving for lateral moves, leaving Buffalo a

179
00:12:22,159 --> 00:12:24,480
team that's this close to winning a
Super Bowl to go now, I'm gonna

180
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,679
go somewhere else. I don't even
want to be here. They left on

181
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,320
They left on their own, like
Heath Farwell and the Heath Farwell, the

182
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,399
special teams coach, left on his
own. He was the guy whoever they

183
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,519
tried to roll over on for the
special team's call when the ball was kicked.

184
00:12:37,519 --> 00:12:39,720
It was miscommunication. It was really
nobody's fault, which ultimately means it's

185
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:43,440
McDermott's fault. But he left on
his own because he didn't want to be

186
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,639
around McDermott. And then the same
time, the wide receiver coach, Chad

187
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,320
Hall, he left on his own. And that story is hysterical because McDermot

188
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,960
didn't really want to pay him that
much. The wide receivers loved him.

189
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,600
They bought him a truck, they
blindfolded him, they taped it, They

190
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,559
brought him out to the parking lot. We got a surprise for you,

191
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,000
and they bought him a brand new
truck. And this guy was moved,

192
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,720
and other guys said it was a
dark day at one Bill's dry when McDermott

193
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,279
found out about that. That's your
leader, that's your chief, that's that's

194
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,960
that's your commander in chief right there. That's not something I want to play.

195
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,399
But do we think that, well, I know, how do we

196
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,960
know that some of this stuff is? I always just wonder who's going on

197
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,039
the record and saying things you don't
you know what I mean? I always

198
00:13:18,039 --> 00:13:20,720
take these are the greatest. We'll
talk to Tyler and find out for sure

199
00:13:20,759 --> 00:13:24,440
too. But one of the things
that a nooised the ship out of me

200
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:28,480
is I hate the secrecy. Tell
me who it is. Yeah, I

201
00:13:28,519 --> 00:13:31,399
know, because look again, there
are people who've been in and out of

202
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,000
my office. There are people who
probably are working there right now. They

203
00:13:33,039 --> 00:13:37,679
could say horrible things about me and
the decisions I've made in terms of how

204
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,840
I want to run my business.
Connors, Can you believe anybody would say

205
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:50,759
anything horrible about your son, your
baby over there? I don't don't.

206
00:13:50,799 --> 00:13:56,039
I don't think she would actually crist
but you know the point. You know,

207
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,559
for me, as I look at
it, it's like, Okay,

208
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,320
who's saying these things? Yeah?
I mean, look, that's always my

209
00:14:01,519 --> 00:14:03,320
question no matter when I read these
kind of articles, I always go,

210
00:14:03,639 --> 00:14:07,879
who is it that's saying these things
though? And what is their motive?

211
00:14:09,159 --> 00:14:13,039
Why? Why do it? Because
I will tell you I think everybody at

212
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,759
this table has some point in their
life could talk ill about somebody. Yeah,

213
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:22,360
well I have no, but I
mean we could not. I'm not

214
00:14:22,399 --> 00:14:24,879
saying yeah, but I'm saying you
could and probably have thought that what good

215
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,600
my thing is? What good comes
of it? What good is going to

216
00:14:28,679 --> 00:14:31,679
come of it? Unless you think
this guy is really hurting the organization,

217
00:14:31,799 --> 00:14:35,639
which over the past couple of games
we have questioned a lot of the play

218
00:14:35,679 --> 00:14:37,840
calling and the dime outs and the
different things. There are certain things that

219
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,159
that are in the article that I
don't disagree with. Yeah, right,

220
00:14:41,159 --> 00:14:45,039
in terms of some of his decision
making, I don't disagree with that.

221
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,600
But let's focus on those things.
Don't focus on the sensationalism of these other

222
00:14:48,679 --> 00:14:54,080
circumstances that to me discredits his article. Now everyone's like, oh, the

223
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,559
article is now verified, it's credible. Because if McDermott admits to saying these

224
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,600
things, that's got nothing to in
my opinion, it's got nothing to do

225
00:15:01,679 --> 00:15:05,720
with the credibility the article. For
me, the article is about his perspective

226
00:15:07,159 --> 00:15:11,120
about mcdermot's decision making, and again
some of the things I don't disagree with.

227
00:15:11,279 --> 00:15:15,720
But when you start bringing in these
the relation something from four years ago.

228
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,759
But I don't know. You had
said earlier that McDermott had already addressed

229
00:15:20,399 --> 00:15:24,159
this speech in twenty nineteen and the
press he did. I didn't, I

230
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,919
actually did. I don't remember that
he did. No, he didn't trust

231
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,039
in the press. He addressed to
the team. Team. Yeah, he

232
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,440
just to the team. The team
it's old news. You know. Tim

233
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,639
Gramma's double checked that and said,
with the team, it's old news.

234
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:37,039
I already knew it. When I
say the the press is that the players

235
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,519
heard it. They were there.
All the people that he allegedly heard this

236
00:15:41,679 --> 00:15:46,000
from were there at the time.
Not one of them went to the press

237
00:15:46,039 --> 00:15:50,480
and said this is what we're said
right. That to me means if you're

238
00:15:50,519 --> 00:15:54,000
offended by it, yeah you say
it then, Because to me, that's

239
00:15:54,039 --> 00:15:58,360
called situational ethics. That situational character, of situational integrity. That to me

240
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,080
is the worst type of person.
Yeah, I agree with that. If

241
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,960
I do something wrong today, tell
me today, let's talk about it,

242
00:16:03,039 --> 00:16:07,120
Let's get through it, let me
acknowledge it, let me work through it.

243
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:08,480
But for you to like, well, that's what I'm saying. It's

244
00:16:08,519 --> 00:16:11,399
four years ago, and I I
mean, if he spoke to the team,

245
00:16:11,879 --> 00:16:18,320
how is anybody outside of the organization
affected by it? You understand what

246
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,840
I'm saying. My only point there
is to try to make him look bad,

247
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,679
which another loss. And I think
that article and it would have been

248
00:16:25,759 --> 00:16:30,039
you would have that would have been
it first to me on the whole thing.

249
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,279
It took me an hour and a
half to read that whole thing.

250
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,039
And the reason is because while I'm
slow and two, I had to go

251
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:40,159
back and reread some certain paragraphs.
Wait minute, did this really happen?

252
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:44,480
Of all the things, of all
the things, of all the things in

253
00:16:44,519 --> 00:16:48,600
that article, the nine to eleven
stuff as a bills fan bothered me the

254
00:16:48,639 --> 00:16:49,879
least because what Greg said, I
mean, look, they buried it.

255
00:16:49,879 --> 00:16:52,240
It was over, it was finished
and had nothing to do with his coaching.

256
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,080
It speaks more to just the fact
that he is not relatable. It

257
00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:00,519
has a hard time communicating to me, which speaks more as a leader that

258
00:17:00,679 --> 00:17:03,360
more than the nine eleven robs.
He lost people on nine to eleven.

259
00:17:03,399 --> 00:17:06,200
Yes, okay, he wasn't trying
to be He's not. He's not He's

260
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,400
not an al Qaeda type of person. And that's what the local media.

261
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:12,079
And I'll say this, those none
of those bastards read that article. They

262
00:17:12,079 --> 00:17:15,319
didn't read the article. And I'm
not gonna name any names, but they

263
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,079
didn't read the article. And I
know where they are. Hang on,

264
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:26,160
hang on, go up, hang
on, hang on a second, hang

265
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:32,640
on us a d. I did
not look at anything on Thursday night.

266
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:37,200
There was an emergency podcast to talk
about I can't believe. I can't believe.

267
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:38,759
Show McDermott simpis. I'm like,
of all the things in that article,

268
00:17:38,759 --> 00:17:41,680
you picked out that part. And
by the way, that wasn't in

269
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,119
the free section. You had to
pay for that, so I know if

270
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,200
you found that you either heard through
the grapevine or you didn't read the whole

271
00:17:48,279 --> 00:17:52,440
damn thing. Well, I didn't
realize he had Tyler Dunsite was paid.

272
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,640
You sent me the article, You
said me you copy, didn't send it

273
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,119
because yeah, and there is a
pay wall, which is how Tyler he's

274
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:06,680
an independent journalism, I feel like
to pay him. Part of the article

275
00:18:06,799 --> 00:18:11,599
to me is even more despicable.
So he was using that in order to

276
00:18:11,599 --> 00:18:17,319
get himself his payday as opposed Look
journalism, journalism is so different today than

277
00:18:17,319 --> 00:18:22,200
it was two and five years ago
because he got to try to grab those

278
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,119
eyes, you know, right,
And so what was within the paid part

279
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,160
sensationalism. So what is why why
are people going to pay to get there?

280
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,799
They're going to pay for the sensationalism
That to me is the erosion of

281
00:18:32,839 --> 00:18:38,720
credibility. It's not an enhancement of
credibility. I just I would have appreciated

282
00:18:38,799 --> 00:18:45,799
the article more if I wasn't distracted
by the attempt of the writer to sensationalize

283
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:52,039
an area that really is irrelevant because
for me, you know, he talks

284
00:18:52,039 --> 00:18:57,039
about McDermott's rigidity. Look, I've
talked to you guys about you have and

285
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:02,000
also his awkwardness is something out from
the little excerpts that I read, there

286
00:19:02,039 --> 00:19:04,799
was an awkwardness, would you say
with McDermott also using point but there was

287
00:19:04,799 --> 00:19:10,799
some other analogy that just went nowhere. It was something about the weather or

288
00:19:10,799 --> 00:19:14,519
a storm or something that had come
in and how Buffalo and it almost was

289
00:19:14,519 --> 00:19:18,119
like Buffalo was resilient. But it
never came to that. He made He

290
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:19,480
made a couple like off the top
of my head of cat. Remember he

291
00:19:19,519 --> 00:19:23,119
made another analogy that was that just
fell flat. But I mean that people

292
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,480
just didn't get behind. You've spent
time with McDermott, You've been in probably

293
00:19:27,519 --> 00:19:32,799
meetings with the guy. Is that
a fair assessment to him being somewhat awkward

294
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,720
personally a little bit rigid like he
seems to. I mean, obviously the

295
00:19:37,759 --> 00:19:41,720
man is extremely disciplined. He is. I mean, if you look at

296
00:19:41,799 --> 00:19:44,400
him and you look at Andy Reid, you could tell who's got more personal

297
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,839
know what I'm saying, by the
way, who holds their body to a

298
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,920
higher standard. I'm just Tyler.
And Tyler references that article and he compliments

299
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,319
him and said a lot of players
to look. His intentions are pure,

300
00:19:53,799 --> 00:19:56,240
his goals to win a Super Bowl, period. It's just that there's a

301
00:19:56,279 --> 00:19:59,720
lot of this do as I say, not as I do stuff. Was

302
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,000
so from the free stuff I read, and I don't mean to beat this

303
00:20:02,079 --> 00:20:04,880
up too much. But I also
I'm glad you said that because I feel

304
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:11,039
like there was a piece in the
article where he's saying, hey, McDermott,

305
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,759
we can't throw Basically, what's the
saying, throw the baby out of

306
00:20:14,799 --> 00:20:17,759
the bath water, And that's not
what he says, but that's sort of

307
00:20:17,759 --> 00:20:22,000
the analogy that comes to mind because
he's saying that he brought that he got

308
00:20:22,039 --> 00:20:23,799
us to the playoffs for the first
time in so many years, and all

309
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,599
this has happened under him. But
is he the guy to push us over?

310
00:20:27,759 --> 00:20:30,359
And I think that's been a question
for a lot of people. But

311
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,759
you're right, the sensationalism and the
whole thing that got focused on was the

312
00:20:33,839 --> 00:20:37,720
nine to eleven people. So the
criticism I have of Sean and we've talked

313
00:20:37,759 --> 00:20:41,920
about this and it's kind of evolved
now subsequent to the Eagles game, because

314
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:47,960
I just thought his decision making there
for me was maddening. Yeah, you

315
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,319
know, the use of the time
out, taking the knee, you know,

316
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,799
and his for me. One of
the other things with him is that

317
00:20:55,880 --> 00:21:02,680
his inconsistency of being disciplined he holds
James Cook and his issues of handling the

318
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,359
ball at a certain level. He
doesn't do it with Gabe Davis, and

319
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:10,960
Gabe Davis as a captain. For
me, I'm a servant leader, and

320
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:15,039
so servant leaders, and Sean mcdumber
is a servant leader. But so you're

321
00:21:15,079 --> 00:21:18,119
supposed to say when you're a servant
leader, that means that you feel the

322
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,119
rules apply to you as it applies
to everyone, whether you whether the rookie

323
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:26,400
or whether you're the highest paid veteran. The rules are the same and you're

324
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,759
held accountable to that, and his
rules will hold everyone account with that.

325
00:21:29,799 --> 00:21:33,519
I don't see him doing that,
at least outwardly. And I'm not on

326
00:21:33,559 --> 00:21:36,519
the team meetings. As you can
see on the field, you know,

327
00:21:36,559 --> 00:21:38,440
you take James Cook out, you
keep gave Davis in in those games,

328
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,240
and it's weird, it's odd,
and I think you lose the team in

329
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:47,119
those certain states. And if you're
not losing the team because they understand why,

330
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,240
who you're losing is the external communications
now because we don't understand why,

331
00:21:51,279 --> 00:21:53,359
and then you're losing us, which
is part of your constituency as the head

332
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,960
coach, as the CEO. It
goes back and forth. It's like an

333
00:21:57,039 --> 00:22:00,759
vicious cycle. And then all the
sudden, you just lose everybody because one

334
00:22:00,759 --> 00:22:03,880
feeds into another, which feeds it
back and then boom and then the result.

335
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,279
The end result is if the famous
the playoffs this year, they might

336
00:22:08,319 --> 00:22:11,400
point to this and go, yeah, you know what, Seawan, that's

337
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,440
it, and not just missing the
playoffs, but if they missed the playoffs,

338
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,000
was something another inexplicable moment like thirteen
seconds where you're like, oh my

339
00:22:19,079 --> 00:22:23,599
gosh, or zero blitz against the
Eagles which resulted in a touchdown, or

340
00:22:23,759 --> 00:22:29,079
calling a time out at anopportune time. If he continues, if they missed

341
00:22:29,079 --> 00:22:32,559
the playoffs again, because it's something
stupid by the head coach, you gotta

342
00:22:32,599 --> 00:22:36,079
sit there and go, he's he's
lost everybody. I mean, let's be

343
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,200
honest, dude. There's a couple
of guys who defended him. Michael Hyde

344
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:42,119
defended him and Dion Dawkins defended him
when shot. This has been documented today.

345
00:22:42,839 --> 00:22:48,759
Josh Allen Ti Tim Graham reported this
on Twitter. Was asked by Matt

346
00:22:48,799 --> 00:22:51,960
Perino Syracuse dot Com to speak about
coach mcderbott. You know what, His

347
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,359
response was, no comment. Now
that may have changed. Right now we're

348
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,519
taping this. They're doing press conferences. Right now. That may have changed,

349
00:22:57,519 --> 00:23:00,039
but that speaks a lot when your
quarterback is going on. Let me

350
00:23:00,039 --> 00:23:03,640
tell you. Let me tell you
the PR department of the bills right now

351
00:23:03,279 --> 00:23:07,480
telling Jos no comment. I'll tell
you what that PR department needs a lot

352
00:23:07,519 --> 00:23:11,319
of help. No, I think
so well, because the thing is is

353
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:15,599
that at this point I shut it
down. Maybe they was playing defense,

354
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,680
but I'm a lawyer and I'm going
to tell you I was Josh Allen to

355
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,680
say no comment, whether regardless of
what his personal feelings are. I don't

356
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,119
care if he thinks he's the greatest
thing since sliced bread or if he thinks

357
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:30,720
he's the biggest piece of ship.
Your response is no comment, you know,

358
00:23:30,759 --> 00:23:33,039
And I think of it. It
couldn't like something say something, but

359
00:23:33,079 --> 00:23:34,279
hey, look we support our coach. He's our guy. Hey look we

360
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,960
just means no comment. Yeah.
Yeah. As a mother, I was

361
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:44,640
coming over here and on the radio
they were trying to go to him and

362
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,680
saying something against McDermott, and he
said he's I think he's a fine man

363
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,279
and a coach. We're going on
the field, We're going to win.

364
00:23:52,559 --> 00:23:55,200
And that's the end of this subject. Okay. Oh so he did,

365
00:23:55,279 --> 00:23:59,200
okay, all right, yeah,
okay, because it's about two hours before

366
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,000
game time, he wouldn't talk.
You know, No, for me,

367
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:06,119
when I when I think about this
whole this whole circumstance as it as it's

368
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,160
evolved, is you know again,
I try to think of it in terms

369
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,519
of my life and in terms of
business, in terms of life. So

370
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:21,839
Bill Moran has said on more than
one occasion, Burier entry, Now that

371
00:24:22,039 --> 00:24:26,960
is one of the things that folks
ship. Not No, I freaking completely

372
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,880
barrier to entry. And I what
you did, well, why you think

373
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,319
of that? You are what your
record says you are. When you come

374
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:41,640
back, I'll let you know.
Buffalo Bills coach Sean with Dermott apologized after

375
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,160
giving a speech to his players where
he used nine to eleven terrorists as a

376
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,119
good example of teamwork, which is
kind of a full circle moment because when

377
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:53,119
Osama bin Laanen was giving a terrorist
at teptalk, he told him not to

378
00:24:53,119 --> 00:25:00,119
be like the Bills. All right, there you go. Saturday Night Live

379
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,319
even had a little fun with it. All right, we'll take them all.

380

We'll see if if we can jog
Greg's memory. I'm sorry. Greg.

383

Dream High in the Quiet of the Night

420
00:28:03,839 --> 00:28:18,400
and Toy with Swifties are very upset
with Tony Romo because he referred to Taylor

421
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:23,480
Swift as Kelsey's wife during the game. I missed it, but I just

422
00:28:23,519 --> 00:28:26,880
happened to pop up the New York
Post website and it's a headline. I

423
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,799
went what I think was that we
missed because Greg was yelling at the rest

424
00:28:30,799 --> 00:28:34,200
for the fourth pe. Yeah,
it was early. I'd like to may

425
00:28:34,279 --> 00:28:38,200
I, may I play just a
piece because now I'll ask your permission because

426
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,400
I'm in your house. And well, he did tape you for our own

427
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,759
entertainment, and we thought we play
it back in the podcast, but I

428
00:28:44,759 --> 00:28:48,160
didn't. I gotta tell you,
like, I don't like the world we

429
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,480
live in right now, because everybody, in my opinion, walks around with

430
00:28:51,519 --> 00:28:53,680
the TV station in their pocket,
and at any moment, anybody could have

431
00:28:53,759 --> 00:28:56,720
a bad day and all of a
sudden it's taken. We don't know the

432
00:28:56,759 --> 00:29:02,119
context, we don't know anything.
However, this is highly entertaining. Watching

433
00:29:02,119 --> 00:29:06,759
a game with Greg Connors when it's
this close is highly entertaining. It really

434
00:29:06,799 --> 00:29:11,799
is. I don't think I've seen
anybody who doesn't actually well you are very

435
00:29:11,799 --> 00:29:14,160
invested in it, but I mean, doesn't actually play the game. Get

436
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:18,839
like this. This is amazing.
You know. I feel emotionally invested because

437
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:19,880
all these years, you know,
it goes back to my dad and all

438
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:26,599
my dad financial investment. Yes,
it just adds to that, and so

439
00:29:27,599 --> 00:29:30,720
you know, and you know,
and I love sharing the experience with my

440
00:29:30,759 --> 00:29:37,960
friends and family, but I lose
myself because you know, being competitive and

441
00:29:37,039 --> 00:29:40,960
driven. I want to win and
I feel like I'm part of the team,

442
00:29:41,799 --> 00:29:45,000
and I kind of I don't use
common sense or I don't I'm not

443
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,920
very good decision I wouldn't say that, but but hang on, this is

444
00:29:49,039 --> 00:29:52,640
uh, I'm just trying to have
I'm not sure which video it was or

445
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,640
what I said. No, it's
only one. It's only one, and

446
00:29:55,720 --> 00:30:04,960
it's over a call. We only
bull again, which means I need to

447
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:18,200
keep their chance to be So it's
so entertaining, it's great. The worst

448
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:22,079
part is that that's not even what
like two weeks ago the Dane Eagles game,

449
00:30:22,359 --> 00:30:25,920
it was like that times ten.
He was on a kneeling in front

450
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,279
of the TV praying to God's So
I didn't come to that one. Well,

451
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,240
we were going to do the podcast
Little Children here, so it was

452
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,359
a little bit more. Actually it
was just Kevin, my mom, and

453
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,599
Jennifer and I were here and that
was it. It was a very quiet

454
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,200
crowd, but you were just just
left. No, I was so one

455
00:30:45,279 --> 00:30:48,319
of one of one of our friends
was here and they have young kids.

456
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,480
And then it was prior to that
is that halftime they said when their son

457
00:30:52,559 --> 00:30:56,319
came in and I was here.
I said, this is effing bullshit.

458
00:30:56,559 --> 00:31:00,160
The kids were like yeah, no, and driving a car around the pool

459
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:06,960
table, and he said, this
is f and bowls. I forgot what

460
00:31:07,039 --> 00:31:10,680
it's like. Friend Christy was like, I looked at my son and I

461
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:15,960
said, that's mister Connors speak,
not yours speaker. He did. So

462
00:31:15,039 --> 00:31:18,559
it was after that, so I
was trying to try. I tell you

463
00:31:18,559 --> 00:31:22,200
did a job of editing yourself.
You get on the fly. You know

464
00:31:22,279 --> 00:31:26,880
your halftime adjustment. You were great. That was a halftime And so when

465
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,960
Kevin was here again with an Eagles
game, there was no filter. Yeah,

466
00:31:30,039 --> 00:31:36,599
I'm very glad you played that one
because it was clean. Yeahs,

467
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,680
I have to get the soap out
sometimes. Actually, at the Eagles game,

468
00:31:41,759 --> 00:31:42,839
she said, if you don't stop, I'm gonna pull the soap out.

469
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,720
That's so funny. Well, the
Eagles game, so I had been

470
00:31:45,759 --> 00:31:51,400
around little kids. I'm normally not
around my nieces and nephews and all my

471
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:55,160
sons, but my guys are older. But one of the kids had like

472
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,640
a little cold or whatever. I
my eye got all red. I was

473
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,759
afraid I had pink eye. It
turns out I went away the next day

474
00:32:01,759 --> 00:32:05,359
but I'm like, I don't even
want to be around anybody until I see

475
00:32:05,359 --> 00:32:07,119
a doctor, just to make sure
that everything's all right. So that's why

476
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,680
I didn't. I didn't want to
come over. Well, you would have

477
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:14,839
been entertained. I know I would
have been entertained, Yes, but I

478
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:19,680
don't want you to think like I
feel the passion and I was so uptight

479
00:32:19,839 --> 00:32:23,880
during this game tonight. I just
can't outwardly express it. I will want

480
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:29,039
them alone. Yeah, but I
mean, your mom's here. It was

481
00:32:29,039 --> 00:32:30,559
a much different vibe this week.
I mean last week it was like four

482
00:32:30,599 --> 00:32:34,319
people. This week we had what
about thirty five? Yeah, we do

483
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,839
need to know, though, who
were the Connors and Ferris Blonds of the

484
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:43,559
week that we're here. Kevin has
been waiting all day to ask that question.

485
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,839
Just that way. So Carly and
Aaron and Aaron's boyfriend Chase, I've

486
00:32:46,839 --> 00:32:52,799
been friends with them for actually I've
been friends with Carly for gosh six seven

487
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:57,960
years now. One of her,
an old friend of hers, was a

488
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,960
friend of mine business wise, and
we were down in New York City the

489
00:33:01,039 --> 00:33:06,519
Bills played the Giants back in back
in New York. I think it was

490
00:33:06,599 --> 00:33:10,599
twenty nineteen okay, And we saw
him down there at the game and then

491
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,279
at the airport and we came back
and we saw, you know, we

492
00:33:14,279 --> 00:33:16,119
were hanging out with him and stuff
and got to know him, and the

493
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:24,400
COVID happens. COVID happens, and
we became we were friends. That was

494
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:35,559
awesome. Less is more paid by
the word, you know what. The

495
00:33:35,599 --> 00:33:40,000
first plce there. There is something
about the wisdom of moms. Oh yes,

496
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:45,039
sometimes moms can say this like so
much in so little, right,

497
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:49,960
it packed so much in so little. It's it's the it's the best speak.

498
00:33:50,079 --> 00:33:54,319
The two of them are wonderful.
Yeah, medical professionals helped the community.

499
00:33:55,079 --> 00:33:58,400
Chase is a great guy. He's
a hockey guy. I should have

500
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,240
talked to you introduce to Chase.
Chase is a hockey guy. Played at

501
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:07,159
Brockport, played in the junior league
Canadian stuff. Uh yeah, Kevin's uh

502
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:12,800
do nothing about hockey, the junior
league Canadian stuff. I don't know junior

503
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,719
leagues in Canada. There's jor leagues
everywhere. I think there's a junior league

504
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:21,800
team here now, junior animal lower
level. But it is a junior team

505
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:27,440
and they're playing in Fairport. And
I forget who's the owner? Who owns

506
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,679
the team? Is it Galasano?
I don't know. Yeah, somebody who

507
00:34:30,079 --> 00:34:34,760
was funding that. I don't know
what is who's doing all that? Oh?

508
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:40,280
Actually one of Galasano's partners from paychecks
who was part owner of the Amerks.

509
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:45,559
No, it was the other one, Turk, it was it.

510
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,360
Oh my god, I can't believe. I can't remember his name now,

511
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:52,079
super nice guy. He was in
with Jane and Tom and he was like

512
00:34:52,119 --> 00:34:55,400
their hr guy, part owner of
the Amerks. I think he might be

513
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,840
involved in but okay, I don't
know. I don't know think about hockey.

514
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:05,280
Tom would know two hours. We
need to get Tom on the show.

515
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,840
We want to We want to find
out the real behind the story of

516
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,239
Grege. What do you mean,
the real behind the story of Greg?

517
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:14,840
I think you can't get me more
real behind the story. I feel like

518
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,639
Tom can tell the story. I'm
not. I would sit no, I

519
00:35:19,639 --> 00:35:22,639
would say, what what you guys
have seen? This is what it is?

520
00:35:24,159 --> 00:35:29,599
Yeah, which isn't? I like
Mom says, talk less, listen

521
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:34,320
more. Yeah. Last night Kevin
and I went to see Doug Phelps Crush

522
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,519
It at the Comedy at the Carlson, and then I wound up on the

523
00:35:37,519 --> 00:35:42,320
West side a bar. I've never
been to the Long Pond Pub, and

524
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,480
I want to give a shout out
to the Long Palmd Pub and the bartender

525
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:51,400
Heidi, because uh, I dropped
my bank card, oh floor, because

526
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,159
I don't want to walk around with
my wallet's too thick. Yeah, I

527
00:35:54,199 --> 00:35:58,599
have that problem to No, it's
like you know what I'm saying, like

528
00:35:58,639 --> 00:36:06,960
the dad wall, it's the credit
yeah, but it's the whatever like yeah,

529
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,719
So I so I just take out
exactly what I need, right,

530
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:14,400
I took out that I need and
then every time I do that, I

531
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,639
wind up dropping them. Yeah,
and I and it's it's terrible. But

532
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,400
Heidi was great. Get the little
pouch for the back of your phone,

533
00:36:20,639 --> 00:36:22,960
Yes, you're right, and then
uh, when you lose your phone,

534
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:27,000
then your phone. Right. Heidi
was great. And then Kevin went over

535
00:36:27,039 --> 00:36:29,679
and thank you. Kevin went back
to the Long Pop Pub because I'm like,

536
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:34,480
but I uber Grady's getting a PS
five for Christmas. But I wound

537
00:36:34,519 --> 00:36:38,360
up back at Doug's house and I
and Doug is now texting me, how

538
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:44,639
how weird is this? Doug finally
woke up, so Doug. Doug wound

539
00:36:44,679 --> 00:36:46,599
up calling me. At one point, Doug made I went back to his

540
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:52,159
place after you dropped this off.
He makes dirty martinis. I don't drink

541
00:36:52,199 --> 00:36:55,119
dirty martinis, but I'm sitting potent, potent, potent, But so I

542
00:36:55,199 --> 00:36:59,440
drink maybe two of those. Get
an uber, and I'm gonna have the

543
00:36:59,519 --> 00:37:01,920
uber take me back to the truck, which is a comedy. At the

544
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:07,119
Carlson the guy pulls up, he
has to wake me up. I go,

545
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,199
how about you just take me right
to Fairport again? Oh my,

546
00:37:10,519 --> 00:37:14,920
sounds like a good idea. It's
a good decision. Bell And so I

547
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:19,000
had to re enter in all the
uber stuff so he could do it,

548
00:37:19,119 --> 00:37:22,880
and then he declined the right today, I had an uber back out and

549
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:27,840
get the truck. But it was
it was fun hanging out with the darts

550
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:31,280
and talking shit. So this is
what I can tell you. That sixty

551
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:36,320
five seventy five dollars you spent on
that saved you about five grand. If

552
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,360
you made the wrong let me let
me or your life or your life or

553
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:44,280
someone else's life. Oh five grand. Yeah, But believe me, I

554
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,119
have some firsthand knowledge and it's and
it's not more than that. Yes,

555
00:37:47,559 --> 00:37:52,679
yeah, but so good decision,
Bell, Yes, it was a great

556
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,199
decision. Well, thank you,
thank you. I was very proud of

557
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:58,239
myself too. Actually, when I
woke up this morning, I was like,

558
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:08,159
less's more. Bill was entertaining.
No, but I have you ever

559
00:38:08,199 --> 00:38:12,159
had that where you've passed out inside
an uber? No? No, No,

560
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:17,320
this is the second time for me
this year. No, I mean

561
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:21,159
you might have a problem. Well
I may maybe maybe, I don't know,

562
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,119
Like I I can't remember the other
time that Uber's like, hey,

563
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:27,559
hey we're here, and I'm like, oh, okay. So one of

564
00:38:27,599 --> 00:38:30,320
the things is, but I knodded
off from Fairport to Fairport, will be

565
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:35,159
setting something up with you here for
some life coaching. You're single. You're

566
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,800
single, so you don't have somebody
to help you do your barometer or to

567
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:39,840
help you get you home. We
don't have to be there, Uber,

568
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:44,400
because I've done that in my own
car with somebody else driving me. Yes,

569
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,679
yeah, but I've never done No
I did. I was out in

570
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:51,880
a number and then uh yes because
even today I got a call from a

571
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:57,159
very famous fairportyan uh Damian Ulconnry,
wondering where where the things have been,

572
00:38:57,199 --> 00:38:59,159

582
00:39:29,559 --> 00:39:34,639

00:40:04,599 --> 00:40:07,400
upset. But I go, Doug. Somebody goes, what's Doug's place?

592
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,320
Like I go, it's like living
in a fort, like a little kid's

593
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:13,280
fort. Like you go in there
and it's all like crowded, and he's

594
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,400
got all this like forty nine ers
stuff and all. But I mean it

595
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:20,360
is cramped in there. He's got
a plant that out. I go,

596
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,760
your plant. You know those swings
that they have. I have more those

597
00:40:23,119 --> 00:40:27,239
sex wings, well for your plant. I kept calling it the sex wing

598
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,119
for your plant. But it's like
one of those yard things. The plant

599
00:40:30,159 --> 00:40:32,599
has exploded and it's sitting on the
window sill, but the plant hangar is

600
00:40:32,599 --> 00:40:37,559
still hanging there with nothing. And
I go, that's a single guy.

601
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:42,400
That's this single guy who's never been
like lived with a woman. I don't

602
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,760
think Doug ever lived with the plant. Holder might have been there when he

603
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,119
got there, he left over I
don't know, no, because the plant

604
00:40:47,119 --> 00:40:50,079
because I go, hey, you're
a plant out through the sex wing?

605
00:40:50,119 --> 00:40:52,519
Huh yeah? Over here it's the
thing and he has the gloryhole right by

606
00:40:52,559 --> 00:40:55,960
the front door there. I have
no idea. I was like, and

607
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,960
you're walking up, there's cases of
beer on the stairs up to his apartment.

608
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:01,719
I go, what's going on here? Because it's the delivery guy stopped

609
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:05,239
keeping a nice and cool outside.
Yeah, but I thought he had a

610
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,519
great Uh did you mention that he
had a great like rehearsal studio area.

611
00:41:08,639 --> 00:41:13,039
No, he has a microphone with
a stand and it's wireless and he just

612
00:41:13,079 --> 00:41:15,480
sits in there. You know what, it reminds me of all the stuffed

613
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,320
animals as his audience. Do you
know what he does stand up for them?

614
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:21,880
Do you know what? It reminds
me of the wedding crashers when Owen

615
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:27,719
Wilson is getting all depressed and he
starts practicing in his in his living room,

616
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:32,039
when he was like before he met
Don't Kill Me books. That was

617
00:41:32,079 --> 00:41:36,239
the That was what it was like
with Doug last night. All right,

618
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:37,119
well, uh, we'll take them
all. We'll keep it a little short

619
00:41:37,159 --> 00:41:40,800
tonight. I want to call my
mom if you don't mind. My mother

620
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:45,599
is having hip surgery tomorrow now.
She was supposed to have hip replacement surgery

621
00:41:45,599 --> 00:41:50,320
on Tuesday. The doctor called and
moved it up a day. She gets

622
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:52,320
herself all wigged out all over all
this stuff, so it'll be fun to

623
00:41:52,519 --> 00:41:55,639
UH to listen to her. We'll
see how calm she is. My sister's

624
00:41:55,920 --> 00:42:00,440
spending the week with her, and
then I will spend Christmas week less your

625
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:05,119
sister. And by the way,
I remembered what do you mean I remembered?

626
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,199
Oh yeah, I remembered your point. Okay, the Bill Moran point

627
00:42:08,559 --> 00:42:12,760
which I listening to the podcast.
I've learned so much in a year.

628
00:42:13,159 --> 00:42:15,679
This was one of the things I
learned. I just got distracted. Well

629
00:42:15,679 --> 00:42:17,599
all right, well sorry, wait, wait, wait, what was the

630
00:42:17,639 --> 00:42:21,039
thing that you learned, because then
I want to say something to you.

631
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,920
What I learned was that Bill always
says it's the boss's role and job to

632
00:42:24,079 --> 00:42:29,199
understand what motivates his personal and the
people that works for him, because that's

633
00:42:29,199 --> 00:42:31,679
what your job is. Your job
is to listen to understanding and to appreciate

634
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:36,920
what they want to motivate them.
And for me, with McDermott in that

635
00:42:37,039 --> 00:42:42,639
situation, it's McDermott has to learn
from his this situation, which he has

636
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,840
he hasn't in the past. McDermott
is stubborn and he is rigid. I

637
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:51,039
hope what he learned from the situation
and the Eagles game was that he needs

638
00:42:51,079 --> 00:42:53,920
to learn to outside people is in
part to influence his decision making, such

639
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:59,840
as the timeout situation. He's been
highly criticized for that national media, other

640
00:43:00,079 --> 00:43:05,840
coaches rip them him taking the knee, ripped on it, and hopefully he

641
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:10,639
can he can begin to get perspective
of others within his group or outside that

642
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:15,960
to give him better perspective in terms
of how we should just go through decision

643
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:21,320
making with the perspective was to win
as opposed to not to lose. Let

644
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:25,719
me ask you, going back to
the article that Tyler Dunrode can something like

645
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:30,800
an article like that? Just out
of curiosity? I always wonder could it

646
00:43:30,039 --> 00:43:36,119
help McDermott if you can you read
something like that? It stings if you're

647
00:43:36,159 --> 00:43:37,599
McDermott. And I don't know that
McDermot will read it. I have no

648
00:43:37,679 --> 00:43:40,559
idea, but let's say he did. He read it? You think so?

649
00:43:42,679 --> 00:43:45,599
You do know that I don't know
it, but you would think so,

650
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:49,000
just knowing the man from what I
from what I note, what I've

651
00:43:49,039 --> 00:43:54,480
heard within it's been read, Okay, does he would he? Then?

652
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,880
I mean at first that that first
sting, and Danny and I were talking

653
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,039
about this, like when you do
something that's so personally who you, it

654
00:44:02,119 --> 00:44:06,960
becomes a big extension of who you
are. Yes, you're a dad and

655
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,800
a husband and a family man,
but really you're Sean McDermot of the Buffalo

656
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:14,320
Bills, and that's a lot of
your identity. So it stings when these

657
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,280
comments come. Obviously you have to
have thick skin and all that, but

658
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:21,920
this one's a little more biting,
and even to the point where they prayed

659
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:23,840
the out in front of the press
and you have to apologize for a speech

660
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:29,039
he gave four years ago for whatever
reason. But could you would you think

661
00:44:29,199 --> 00:44:32,199
he's the kind of guy that can
almost take that ten thousand the macro look,

662
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,280
not the micro look, and look
at it and go all right,

663
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,000
you know what, there are some
things here. Maybe I need to be

664
00:44:37,039 --> 00:44:38,960
a little less rigid, Maybe I
am coming off this way, maybe people

665
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:44,159
are saying this, or does that
not something that will penetrate him? I

666
00:44:44,199 --> 00:44:47,559
think that that question is the question
for him, you know, because do

667
00:44:47,679 --> 00:44:52,119
I think he could do that?
Prior to this he hasn't in my opinion

668
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:58,039
right now, will this be the
catalyst? Because this stung because this was

669
00:44:58,159 --> 00:45:00,719
personal. Yeah, I mean,
this was something that he tried to do

670
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:05,199
the right way. He tried to
I mean he he is, I mean,

671
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,559
Sean's a good person. I mean
he's he is a tried and true

672
00:45:07,559 --> 00:45:12,320
American he I mean all the things
he was trying to motivate his team and

673
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:15,719
try to garner his team in a
manner it was bad decision making in terms

674
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:19,400
of using the analogy, but he
took it personally because it was a personal

675
00:45:19,519 --> 00:45:23,079
He felt this was a personal attack. And so the thing is is that

676
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,400
there are certain things in your life, you know, for me in business,

677
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,119
or you and your business. You
know, we've all been through those

678
00:45:30,159 --> 00:45:32,000
things. How do you respond?
Right, life is ten percent of what

679
00:45:32,079 --> 00:45:36,519
happens to you and then ninety percent
of how you handle it. So how

680
00:45:36,559 --> 00:45:38,480
does he handle it from here?
Does he use this as a catalyst to

681
00:45:38,519 --> 00:45:44,119
become more open and inclusive in terms
of his decision making, or does he

682
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:49,400
then become more confined because he can't
trust the people who were here or are

683
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,440
here. If you do that,
it's not going to be productive. I

684
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:57,320
always think, like you know,
in radio was such a who you know,

685
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,559
who you were, and especially in
the beginning of your career, you'd

686
00:45:59,559 --> 00:46:02,519
have to sit in a room by
yourself with the boss and listen to a

687
00:46:02,599 --> 00:46:07,599
tape of you on the radio,
and it was always very uncomfortable, and

688
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:12,400
so you would try to not take
those things personally. And I actually think

689
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:15,519
that was as much as I hated
it, in a way it was a

690
00:46:15,519 --> 00:46:21,039
good exercise because as I went and
more humbling humbling, but also maturity comes

691
00:46:21,039 --> 00:46:23,000
in when you get older and you
see things. Because my thing is I

692
00:46:23,079 --> 00:46:27,039
always have people go, well,
I don't know anything about what you do,

693
00:46:27,159 --> 00:46:29,119
but uh, and I would say, hang on a second. You

694
00:46:29,199 --> 00:46:30,880
have ears, and you know what
you like, and if we're not doing

695
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:35,559
something, what is it? Maybe
I'll agree, Maybe I can, because

696
00:46:35,599 --> 00:46:38,920
a lot of times if you can
step back sometimes you don't know, a

697
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:44,920
good idea can come from anywhere,
or or something that's gonna maybe smooth the

698
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:46,519
edges a little bit. I have
a good idea we should have Sean mcdermoy

699
00:46:46,559 --> 00:46:51,119
give your mother a pep talk before
I gotta tell you, you know,

700
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,599
in terms of our office, in
terms of our nine to eleven is the

701
00:46:53,639 --> 00:46:58,599
best inter Vienna. Oh my god. You know, operationally from my office,

702
00:46:58,679 --> 00:47:00,440
the best ideas have come from not
me but from others. Yeah.

703
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:02,719
Right, And it's do you listen
to him? Well, I don't know.

704
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:07,519
I know you don't have good well, Ray Dalio. We brought this

705
00:47:07,599 --> 00:47:10,760
up last week Ray Dalio, when
he wrote the Brook Principles. Ray Dally

706
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:14,599
has big claiming the fingals he was
a huge hedge fund guy. He predicted

707
00:47:14,639 --> 00:47:16,320
a huge crash in the eighties and
it didn't happen. So he had to

708
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:21,079
reevaluate because he bet against the American
economy and he lost. And everybody's like,

709
00:47:21,119 --> 00:47:22,320
ah, you got an egg in
your face. So he went back

710
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:24,239
and he realized, I got to
listen to more people. I got to

711
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:28,599
surround myself with people don't necessarily agree
with me, yes, people, and

712
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:32,559
to help him get better. And
you know, and I think in Bill's

713
00:47:32,599 --> 00:47:36,519
Bill's point again about you know,
a boss needs to know what helps motivate,

714
00:47:36,559 --> 00:47:38,679
what's going to motivate you, and
and then work towards that is that

715
00:47:39,079 --> 00:47:43,639
you want you want your team,
the people that work with you, to

716
00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,679
feel comfortable and confident and trust you
that they can say things that you don't

717
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:50,159
like. And you're you're not gonna
take it personally, You're not going to

718
00:47:50,199 --> 00:47:52,320
take a vendetta against them. Well, that is the most important thing in

719
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:58,159
terms of a healthy, enriching environment. It feels like you would want to

720
00:47:58,199 --> 00:48:02,719
do that more now when you're seeing
some people take jobs, move away from

721
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:07,440
jobs, want to work from home, switch out that if you can build

722
00:48:07,599 --> 00:48:10,039
that, Hey, I know you
want to be at your kid's soccer game

723
00:48:10,079 --> 00:48:15,400
every Tuesday and Thursday at three o'clock. That's fine as long as you get

724
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,360
your work done, you know,
I mean know what makes them tick.

725
00:48:17,599 --> 00:48:21,639
I feel like that's an important thing. And people buy in, He'll run

726
00:48:21,679 --> 00:48:23,400
through walls for you. That was
in the article two. That was the

727
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:28,280
article that Sean was not good about
that. And at one point he found

728
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:30,000
out that a guy had like they
knew this guy was going out to lead

729
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,119
to watch his kids play soccer,
and he's like, I'm gonna add more

730
00:48:32,159 --> 00:48:35,920
hours to your worktime. So if
you're not gonna work harder, I'm gonna

731
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:37,960
get that extra hour out of you. And that turned a lot of people

732
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:42,159
off too. So those and and
that's kind of my point is is that

733
00:48:42,679 --> 00:48:47,599
when you're at the level that he's
at those decisions to get the productivity that

734
00:48:47,639 --> 00:48:52,880
you need, but also you provide
productivity. You've got to look in and

735
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:58,679
you've got to be humble. And
my criticism of Sean through the years has

736
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:05,800
been hit and this is my perspective
his rigidity in terms of flexibility and adapting.

737
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:13,199
I mean, you succeed in high
level professional operations in business on being

738
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:16,039
adapted to the circumstances. You have
to be adaptive, which means you have

739
00:49:16,119 --> 00:49:20,679
to have a perspective other than your
own so you can then respond to something

740
00:49:20,679 --> 00:49:24,480
that you didn't anticipate. That to
me is the critical part of business.

741
00:49:24,599 --> 00:49:29,480
I don't care if you're Terry Pagoula, if you're Sean McDermott, if you're

742
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:34,039
you know, Joe Biden, Donald
Trump. That you have to be able

743
00:49:34,079 --> 00:49:37,559
to adapt to the circumstances. But
you can only do that if you hear

744
00:49:37,679 --> 00:49:40,800
something that you didn't think of yourself, because I look at it and I've

745
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:45,199
got my perspective. If I don't
know your perspective on the other side,

746
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:49,920
I can't adapt to it. So
you've got to open and hear it so

747
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:54,519
then you can prepare a reply and
be prepared to respond to it. I

748
00:49:54,679 --> 00:49:59,880
feel my opinion is is that Shawn's
rigidity in the way that he looks at

749
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:05,239
is so structured, is so strong, one sided. He hasn't taken that

750
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:10,360
full three sixty and appreciated it.
I'm hoping this article that was he has

751
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:15,599
taken, that is very personal,
was very personal, gives him more of

752
00:50:15,679 --> 00:50:19,039
a perspective of you know what,
I need to think about and look at

753
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:24,039
all these perspectives so I could be
a better decision maker in the last thirteen

754
00:50:24,119 --> 00:50:29,119
seconds, the last two minutes and
make these decisions. Now. We talked

755
00:50:29,159 --> 00:50:34,159
about and at that last possession,
fourth down with the Chiefs and we watched

756
00:50:34,159 --> 00:50:38,039
a replay. I love what they
did on defense. I saw that as

757
00:50:38,119 --> 00:50:45,719
adapt to the circumstances to what happened
before they jammed Kelsey right Floyd Leonard Floyd

758
00:50:45,199 --> 00:50:50,760
made Kelsey go inside him. He
gave him a jab. You had Douglas

759
00:50:51,119 --> 00:50:54,119
riding the other receiver on the inside
Jandom at the line, which they did

760
00:50:54,159 --> 00:50:58,639
not do at thirteen seconds, and
Van ran underneath them, So you got

761
00:50:58,679 --> 00:51:00,280
to throw the ball over top of
you. Then they had safety coverage on

762
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:04,960
the top. It's got to be
a perfect pass Mahomes didn't make the throw,

763
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:09,320
they win the freaking game. That
to me is progress like that,

764
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:13,360
Like that, that's why it's so
exciting. Look, we want, we

765
00:51:13,679 --> 00:51:16,800
want you and I. We want
Sean McDermott to succeed everything we want.

766
00:51:17,199 --> 00:51:22,079
We want to win a super Bowl. At him for winning a super Bowl.

767
00:51:22,079 --> 00:51:25,000
But that's what I'm saying. Winning. Winning is like the sav for

768
00:51:25,039 --> 00:51:28,760
everything, right, if you win, it makes everything go away, it

769
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,320
does. I believe he's always been
like this. I was going to ask

770
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:37,760
that he's always been this competitive.
Yeah, yeah, that's driven backyard man.

771
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,440
I'd go after my older brother and
I we'd freaking go at it,

772
00:51:42,079 --> 00:51:45,440
and if you lost. He ate
mud Pie. And he was down at

773
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:47,599
the neighbors one time and they were
playing ball and the ball went through the

774
00:51:47,639 --> 00:51:51,599
window and broke the windows. So
the mother came out and I said to

775
00:51:51,679 --> 00:51:53,480
him, I hope you ran,
because if you don't run, you're gonna

776
00:51:53,480 --> 00:52:00,039
be blame for it also, and
you're gonna have to pay for it.

777
00:52:00,119 --> 00:52:02,119
And I can't remember what happened.
I went and got the ball. I

778
00:52:02,119 --> 00:52:08,639
was freaking the game. Got the
ball. Well, you know, we

779
00:52:09,079 --> 00:52:14,199
have her keep it. We can't
finish the game or has the ball,

780
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:17,840
and we didn't have enough money.
We didn't have enough money, We didn't

781
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:22,480
have two balls, we didn't have
two football what among the three families we

782
00:52:22,519 --> 00:52:27,519
had one football? They were out
of timeouts? You got it. So

783
00:52:27,599 --> 00:52:30,559
did you pay for the window?
I think we cleaned it up. I

784
00:52:30,599 --> 00:52:34,079
don't remember. I'm sure my parents
paid for it. I think I cleaned

785
00:52:34,079 --> 00:52:36,880
it up and my dad probably gave
her the twenty five bucks to fix the

786
00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:40,280
window. There you go. Yeah, that sounds about right the way it

787
00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:44,199
should have happened in the eighties.
Right, Yes, all right, we'll

788
00:52:44,199 --> 00:52:46,679
take a moment, uh, and
we'll check it with my mom who goes

789
00:52:46,679 --> 00:52:51,039
in for surgery, and then wrap
it up for a bill's win. I'm

call up places like in the South,

848
00:56:46,519 --> 00:56:50,840
like an I hoop or a waffle
house, and all he could do was

849
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:54,679
sing the first line of a Christmas
carol and we would guess would they sing

850
00:56:54,719 --> 00:57:00,360
it back or hang up? And
he can't say anything else but sing the

851
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:08,679
first line the hall with bowser and
then he pauses like that and so yeah.

852
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:13,199
And sometimes you'll get somebody with a
good personality, and sometimes he just

853
00:57:14,159 --> 00:57:20,599
who is this? Who's this?
Why? Remember? What do that?

854
00:57:20,639 --> 00:57:24,679
For? The Bills Miami game January
for January seventh, that week leading into

one time to go? Is this?

856
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:40,599
Ray? Is that you? So
it's funny. Randy called me, uh

857
00:57:42,039 --> 00:57:45,519
twice the other day, called me
and I couldn't answer. And then I

858
00:57:45,559 --> 00:57:47,440
get a text, call me as
soon as you can. So I start

859
00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:51,199
to think that every every once in
a while because I always I know his

860
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:52,760
family, I know his parents,
and all they think this day and escar

861
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:59,719
history was I'm hoping that it's nothing
bad. So uh and then I get

862
00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:01,760
another their call and I didn't answer, and so now I call right back.

863
00:58:02,199 --> 00:58:07,079
And he wanted to just tell me
that Tony Stewart he's going to be

864
00:58:07,159 --> 00:58:12,599
driving his wife's dirt track car this
season because they're trying to have a family

865
00:58:12,639 --> 00:58:15,440
and she's not going to be in
the car, so he's going to drive

866
00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:17,760
the car. Big news, big
news, Get out of here. But

867
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:22,559
that's but that took a call,
a text, and another call, and

868
00:58:22,599 --> 00:58:24,920
I'm thinking, like I go.
And it was two weeks ago. He

869
00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:30,320
did the same same process to tell
us that Brad Keselowski bought the Ricky Bobby

870
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:35,320
House. The Ricky Bobby He love
that the pool tilt to work. What

871
00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:40,760
was on Lake Norman in uh,
just north of Charlotte. I don't know.

872
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:44,800
Yeah, I think it is actually
because my buddy Mike Zimmer. He

873
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:46,920
used to live next door to me
here in Pittsford. He lives down in

874
00:58:47,679 --> 00:58:52,039
Lake Norman and we went we were
out on the boat and he was going

875
00:58:52,079 --> 00:58:57,079
through and he's like, hey,
there's some some guy owned this house and

876
00:58:57,119 --> 00:59:00,559
he's NASCAR and he goes I think
that house was in like one of the

877
00:59:00,639 --> 00:59:04,199
movies, and I was like,
holy ship, that looks familiar. I

878
00:59:04,239 --> 00:59:08,079
can't because it was. It was
Telligate Knights. Yeah, Talentigan Knights.

879
00:59:08,079 --> 00:59:12,480
That is it beautiful? So what's
happening here? I just you'll get your

880
00:59:12,519 --> 00:59:15,440
Christmas gills closer. I don't know
if I'm going to see greg again before

881
00:59:15,039 --> 00:59:19,320
we're going to bring brought Gregor president. I don't if I'm going to see

882
00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:23,760
him before Christmas. Oh here we
go, yeah, wow, wow,

883
00:59:25,119 --> 00:59:30,480
shot bills Kevin. That's great.
He brings that. He walks into the

884
00:59:30,519 --> 00:59:34,000
stadium with that. The censors go
up, Wait, you know what this

885
00:59:34,159 --> 00:59:37,400
is? This is Greg Connor,
come on in. Actually we should have

886
00:59:37,519 --> 00:59:40,239
used these shot glasses. So when
Kevin came into the man Cave earlier,

887
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:45,760
he had to be cleansed of all
the bad k all the bad mojo of

888
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:51,480
the prior bosses, the Bills and
the Patriots. So we did fireball shots.

889
00:59:51,599 --> 00:59:54,599
Why fireball shots to do the deep
cleanse because that is the shot that

890
00:59:54,800 --> 01:00:01,480
Josh Allen's family does before every game
because are from Fireball bell for California,

891
01:00:01,559 --> 01:00:06,639
so that's what they do. So
that was our mojo Bill shot that Kevin

892
01:00:06,719 --> 01:00:09,079
did with Dan and I. Now
Dan had to participate because of all the

893
01:00:09,159 --> 01:00:14,280
bad mojo that Kevin projected on it. Again he did kept Kevin is not

894
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:17,400
going to go down taking that place. He was going on a second dance

895
01:00:17,719 --> 01:00:21,360
there for every loss. It's like
kind of like a yam Kapora where the

896
01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:25,679
high transfer the sins onto the goat
escape coat solid, though there's a couple

897
01:00:25,719 --> 01:00:30,480
of spots out in the petty of
that sod smell like sentiment because they went

898
01:00:30,519 --> 01:00:34,320
over my shoulder instead of like gell. It very solid. And Kevin was

899
01:00:34,559 --> 01:00:37,039
he was he was stand up man. He was legit. He said he

900
01:00:37,119 --> 01:00:38,880
came in he was feeling with the
weather. But he did it, and

901
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:40,639
he did it first, and I
was like, wait, wait, wait,

902
01:00:40,679 --> 01:00:45,119
we gotta do it together. We
had to do a toast with the

903
01:00:45,159 --> 01:00:47,599
shoulder two over his shoulder. We
had to do it together because we had

904
01:00:47,599 --> 01:00:51,320
to do the toast to get rid
of the bad karma, we had to

905
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:53,960
pour another one. We did it
then, so did a whole speech.

906
01:00:54,239 --> 01:00:58,719
Was yeah, I hold in sense
I was running a little late, and

907
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:00,000
I'm listening to the game, and
I, oh, this is great.

908
01:01:00,039 --> 01:01:02,719
Greg's going to be in a great
wood. I'm basically so happy They're up

909
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:07,039
fourteen and nothing. Oh it was
good. It was yeas very good.

910
01:01:07,119 --> 01:01:09,920
It went sideways, but damn we
came out. Look, every game is

911
01:01:09,920 --> 01:01:14,480
a playoff kick out totally, so
you got to just keep winning. And

912
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:16,519
Dallas looks pretty ferocious right now,
by the way, O right hang on

913
01:01:16,639 --> 01:01:21,639
side. You were me that that
was me due these are fantastic. Man.

914
01:01:22,639 --> 01:01:23,840
My mother said she was going for
a shower, but let me see

915
01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:27,639
if I can get it before she
gets to the shower. Oh, I

916
01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:30,119
was trying to get you before you
got in the shower. I apologize.

917
01:01:30,159 --> 01:01:34,320
We were running the are you had
what? What what did you say?

918
01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:37,880
You're going in the shower with your
special towel, I said, him going

919
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:42,760
in the shower and then I have
to use special pwels to dry off with.

920
01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:49,440
Oh yeah yeah your body, Yeah
yeah, your son had that special

921
01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:55,639
towel he was seventeen to So we
were just very happy because the Bills won

922
01:01:55,719 --> 01:02:00,800
today. Mom, yes, Dorreen
wrote and she said, the stars are

923
01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:05,760
aligned and you'll be signed with the
Bills. One yes, yes, yes.

924
01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:08,119
And so we're at Greg Connor's house
and his mom is here, and

925
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:15,480
his mom had had both hips replaced, and she said, yep, and

926
01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:21,880
no she's bionic now. But she
said, like it was the best.

927
01:02:22,239 --> 01:02:25,119
It was so like it was a
life changing surgery in a way, like

928
01:02:25,199 --> 01:02:28,599
you can move again and you'll get
through it. It's easy now. I

929
01:02:28,599 --> 01:02:30,639
don't want to say surgery is easy, but from what my aunt did twenty

930
01:02:30,719 --> 01:02:34,800
years ago to what it is now, such a different process, such an

931
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:42,360
easier process. They use lasers,
the posi, Tony, did you have

932
01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:47,119
an anterior or a posterior? Well, I have forty eight stitches down my

933
01:02:47,239 --> 01:02:52,679
leg? Oh forty eight stitches down
your leg? Yeah? My doctor did

934
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:58,719
side oh side, okay, okay, yeah, yeah, so I don't

935
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:02,000
know what that is. Mom,
from it poster this and Terry to start

936
01:03:02,079 --> 01:03:05,960
going to do a lot and then
you can bend forward right away. Otherwise

937
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:12,639
you can't stand forward. But I'm
having a poster. But that's because yes,

938
01:03:12,960 --> 01:03:15,760
okay, so I won't be able
to you know, it'll take a

939
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:19,440
little longer recovery, but it'll be
fun. Yeah. Well I'm good.

940
01:03:19,519 --> 01:03:25,639
You sound fantastic. Well, I
feel really good since your sister, okay,

941
01:03:28,159 --> 01:03:36,760
or a bad thing that she left, right gregecting, I was projecting

942
01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:40,639
on my own sister. No,
but yes, I had a really nice

943
01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:45,039
evening. We were to ty food, a little wine. We watched a

944
01:03:45,159 --> 01:03:49,199
Christmas movie, so it was nice. All you didn't watch the Bills game.

945
01:03:49,239 --> 01:03:52,159
I'm disappointed in it, but that's
okay. I didn't want I forgot

946
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:57,199
what's up? I know it's so
disappointing. Well, I I wanted to

947
01:03:57,280 --> 01:04:00,400
make make sure I talked to you. What what time are you leaving for

948
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:02,760
the hospital? We're going to leave
here at eight o'clock because it's so far

949
01:04:03,559 --> 01:04:09,800
okay, yeah, right, it's
literally at the corner. Yeah, you'll

950
01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:13,119
walk and when the hip's better,
your surgery is at eight fifteen. You're

951
01:04:13,199 --> 01:04:15,760
leaving at eight, yeah, because
the hospital is like I mean, that's

952
01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:20,960
right, Yeah, it's literally like
two houses away. That's how close she

953
01:04:21,039 --> 01:04:24,719
lives. Now that's great. Yeah, so it's right there. Oh,

954
01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:28,639
you'll love it. It's a miracle
operation. Oh I'm so glad to hear

955
01:04:28,719 --> 01:04:33,320
that. I really am. So
hopefully I will have to result you heads,

956
01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:38,000
yes you will. Well, that's
great. The exercises three times a

957
01:04:38,079 --> 01:04:42,199
day when you're home three times a
day. Yeah, you were doing all

958
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:45,800
that before, so that's not something. Get nowhere, yes, and getting

959
01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:49,280
nowhere right with all this all that? Yes, I know, all right,

960
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:54,159
Well, best of luck with everything. And uh, I hope Kate

961
01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:58,280
treat you well and I will find
out. I'll give you a call early

962
01:04:58,360 --> 01:05:01,320
in the morning. Okay, good, all right, good luck, It'll

963
01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:05,360
be great. Praying for you.
We'll think you all right. I love

964
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:13,440
you, mom, Thank you very
much. Your mom is the most sultry

965
01:05:13,519 --> 01:05:18,079
voice. She really does. She
gets really wigged out and then she does

966
01:05:18,199 --> 01:05:23,599
not have a good, uh experience
with anesthesia, like she gets very sick

967
01:05:23,679 --> 01:05:27,199
from it. Change. Well,
see that's the thing, is like,

968
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:30,719
I don't know why does she tell
them that. I think she did tell

969
01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:34,920
him, And then I was there
with her with the uh the next surgery,

970
01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:38,480
and all of a sudden she's like, how was she feeling from that?

971
01:05:38,599 --> 01:05:41,239
By the way that she I mean, some stuff is better. But

972
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:44,800
it's the hip. So she's walking. She's actually using the cane right now

973
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:47,800
and is very bothered by it and
very embarrassed by it. So did your

974
01:05:47,840 --> 01:05:53,320
father offer to help her out?
She say no, no, But my

975
01:05:53,519 --> 01:05:58,800
brother always says this thing. He
goes like that so much now because we're

976
01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:01,719
all together for Thanksgiving. So they
everybody was wonderful and it was and they

977
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:09,079
looked like Griswold Thanksgiving. They ought
to do that Griswold Thanksgiving. They should

978
01:06:09,119 --> 01:06:13,360
do that movie. It was nice, you know. They and they are

979
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,440
fine. I mean they're not together, but they certainly get along fine.

980
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:20,000
And uh, my brother always says
to me, he goes, if you

981
01:06:20,119 --> 01:06:23,599
talk to dad, dad will go, oh, your mother, God,

982
01:06:23,719 --> 01:06:27,400
she's a she can hardly walk because
they're pushing each other into the graves to

983
01:06:27,440 --> 01:06:30,679
see who get there first. To
say, my dad's got neurological issues going

984
01:06:30,679 --> 01:06:35,239
on. My mom's like he can
hardly move anything, and your mother can't

985
01:06:35,239 --> 01:06:39,519
even been over entire shoe. I
worry about you know. So there's like

986
01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:42,760
my brother goes, they're having enough
race to see who can put you into

987
01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:45,360
the great first. But I think
my mom, my mom's mom lived in

988
01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:49,360
ninety six, you know, and
yeah, agg was like, we've been

989
01:06:49,559 --> 01:06:54,480
drinking and doing everything, and so
I think that everybody will be fine.

990
01:06:54,760 --> 01:07:01,440
Mom is is a beautiful eighty plus
year old vibe person? Yes? Really?

991
01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:04,320
Yeah, I didn't get that.
No, I mean not the vibrant

992
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:10,119
part, but not the eighty part. Say that, oh that business.

993
01:07:11,840 --> 01:07:14,519
And my dad was fifty nine when
he passed it away. I know,

994
01:07:15,159 --> 01:07:19,039
so Greg is six years six years
buddy, I know, well, you're

995
01:07:19,079 --> 01:07:23,559
gonna be fine. Who was it
from the Tennessee Titans? Uh? Like

996
01:07:23,639 --> 01:07:27,360
white fifty two years fifty two.
They think a lot of He took a

997
01:07:27,440 --> 01:07:30,760
fall in his house and they found
him. They think I might have been

998
01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:31,960
ct he had had he'd had some
problem. He had to retire from his

999
01:07:32,079 --> 01:07:38,079
radio show because Craig he threw the
home assme throw forward. Yeah, that

1000
01:07:38,199 --> 01:07:42,920
was him. He's city miracle.
Yeah. I remember watching that in an

1001
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:46,360
airport. I was coming back God
somewhere. That was only twenty two years

1002
01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:48,639
ago. Can you believe that?
Yeah? I mean, see, I

1003
01:07:48,639 --> 01:07:51,400
always see when I now, I
always say to these guys three years ago,

1004
01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:56,519
this is terrible. But when I
see someone in my age range that

1005
01:07:56,719 --> 01:08:00,920
dies, I'm always hoping it's an
overdose. He's right, it's something that

1006
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:04,639
they're doing that they shouldn't be.
Yeh, you know, because I go

1007
01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:06,880
I don't want you know. Yeah, Like, there was a woman from

1008
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:11,400
extreme weight loss who just died.
She was forty and I didn't know who

1009
01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:13,519
she was. And I'm like,
oh my gosh, I'm forty three.

1010
01:08:13,559 --> 01:08:15,159
What happened? And they found her
in a car. She went to chip

1011
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:20,760
It's gonna all day. She went
to Chipotle and she never got home and

1012
01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:25,119
she died in the car. And
somebody called the cops and said, hey,

1013
01:08:25,319 --> 01:08:28,720
there's a woman just sleeping in her
car outside the Chipotle with a full

1014
01:08:29,199 --> 01:08:31,920
bag of food. She was in
her forties. Yeah, but they said

1015
01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:35,960
that she died of complications to obesity. Well it could be did she lose

1016
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:39,039
a tremendous amount of weight. I
don't know she put it back on.

1017
01:08:39,199 --> 01:08:41,800
They didn't say like that. The
reports that she had they had time to

1018
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:48,119
check the she had a full bag
of food. He was trapped in chips

1019
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:54,680
She's not going to be you know, we're you know, being single,

1020
01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:58,520
Yeah, and being you know,
Luke is going to be he's graduating in

1021
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:01,000
gym. Why is he gonna.
Has he decided where he's going. You

1022
01:09:01,039 --> 01:09:05,159
know, he's looking at Alfred.
He he got accepted as a mechanical engineering

1023
01:09:05,239 --> 01:09:09,399
program at Offer, which I'm extremely
proud of and his mom is very proud

1024
01:09:09,439 --> 01:09:12,439
of. And he has he's did
really well in football this year, and

1025
01:09:13,159 --> 01:09:16,199
he's done very well in track his
junior year and started off had his first

1026
01:09:16,239 --> 01:09:20,760
indoor meet and doing well. So
the track coach, football coach would love

1027
01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:24,600
him to come down and see if
he could fit into the program. So

1028
01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:28,079
it looks like Alfred, which I
got to love. Man. I mean,

1029
01:09:28,159 --> 01:09:30,800
that's that's my freight, my soft
spot. Am I allowed to ask

1030
01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:34,479
questions? Sure? All right?
Ask him. I believe there's a dorm

1031
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:40,920
on the campus. Is there not
a dorm named after you? There's a

1032
01:09:41,039 --> 01:09:45,439
dorm named after my family? After
your family, Okay, Connors's not called

1033
01:09:45,439 --> 01:09:54,039
Anne Ferris. She should have a
dorm right after her. How cool would

1034
01:09:54,119 --> 01:09:57,560
that be if you got to be
in the dorm that Like I don't know

1035
01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:00,359
if I don't know if that would
be something you'd want to share with people

1036
01:10:00,560 --> 01:10:02,840
or not, So that's something you'd
want people to I don't think your son,

1037
01:10:03,039 --> 01:10:06,520
he's very no Luke is very low
key. Ye, Luke would if

1038
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:10,239
they were like very bright, he
would be like, yeah, my name

1039
01:10:10,279 --> 01:10:12,960
is Luke, and what's your last
name? Like, yeah, Luke.

1040
01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:15,960
If they found out it would be
Connors, they'd be like, is that

1041
01:10:15,079 --> 01:10:23,119
your family? Be like yeah,
maybe not really. I think it would

1042
01:10:23,159 --> 01:10:26,760
be kind of cool to let that
slowly dribble out. So the interesting thing

1043
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:30,960
is that the dorm that's got our
family name on it is an upper class

1044
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:35,199
residence. Okay, And so Luke
as a freshman would be in the freshman

1045
01:10:35,399 --> 01:10:40,359
dorm. Yeah, so he would
not be in that years could potentially.

1046
01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:45,520
I would never do that. I
don't I would never do that, But

1047
01:10:45,119 --> 01:10:48,760
there could become a point in time
later in his career down there where he

1048
01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:53,079
could be in there, and that
would be an interesting Yeah, it would

1049
01:10:53,079 --> 01:10:56,960
be that would be funny. So
there's a chance that hell yeah, right,

1050
01:10:57,279 --> 01:11:00,399
there's a chance that he'll be going
there and playing football. Yeah.

1051
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:04,159
I mean, you know, as
a fresh college do you think we see

1052
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:10,920
we see passion Bills game? Whoa, yeah, it'll be Fisher. A

1053
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:17,680
Fisher be the defensive backs coach.
And you know, we talked about me

1054
01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:21,279
being the owner of the Buffalo Y
future owner of the Buffalo Bills. So

1055
01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:25,880
the head coach at Alfred, the
ed coach at Alfred, I've been friends

1056
01:11:25,880 --> 01:11:29,960
with for twenty five years. And
he's a great guy. And uh,

1057
01:11:30,239 --> 01:11:32,039
he and I talked football at the
time he comes to the Bills camp.

1058
01:11:32,159 --> 01:11:36,159
We talked during the season, even
before all this. And I mean,

1059
01:11:36,239 --> 01:11:40,560
Luke is a very talented, very
athletic kid. And he's and where he

1060
01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:43,600
fits in to their defense. You
know, he's got to figure that out.

1061
01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:46,960
Was he playing defensive back? He
was playing He played some defensive back,

1062
01:11:47,039 --> 01:11:51,479
he played some safety, and he
played some defensive outside linebacker. He

1063
01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:56,680
met he had some really good successes
outside linebacker because of his speed and strength

1064
01:11:56,760 --> 01:11:59,479
and his tenacity. And so they're
like, you know, you could fit

1065
01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:05,399
into our game at outside linebacker.
And when I go to their games,

1066
01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:10,239
I actually am very very laid back. I'm more nervous for his games than

1067
01:12:10,239 --> 01:12:14,039
I ever was and when I played
ever Yeah, yeah, And I can

1068
01:12:14,119 --> 01:12:16,039
see now where my parents were like
that, did you get very nervous watching

1069
01:12:16,119 --> 01:12:27,279
him play? Yeah? At the
at Alfred H. High School as well.

1070
01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:31,800
Was it a big deal in Hornell? Like the Friday Night was the

1071
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:35,159
game like the Pine Plains. It
was like the event. Yeah. I

1072
01:12:35,199 --> 01:12:40,399
mean in Hornell Friday nights, you
you went to the Hornell football games and

1073
01:12:40,439 --> 01:12:44,520
then you got pizza King Pizza.
And that's what two thirds of the population

1074
01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:46,720
the city Hornell did when we would
go to sectional champ we go to Sectional

1075
01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:51,760
games, literally half to two thirds
of the city be gone. You know,

1076
01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:55,960
we'd be an Avan, we'd be
up to Rochester. And uh,

1077
01:12:56,159 --> 01:13:00,520
I mean when you go to sectional
football games now Section five, the smaller

1078
01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:04,760
schools have bigger crowds in the largest
schools because we are so right. It

1079
01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:10,279
is so in best and that's what
Hornell was. Uh and uh but yeah,

1080
01:13:10,359 --> 01:13:13,159
so Luke O and Alford. I
mean for me, I just want

1081
01:13:13,239 --> 01:13:18,399
him to succeed and academically be successful
and have a great experience like Jordan's doing

1082
01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:23,920
that Roberts was in right. And
I mean, like I have said repeatedly

1083
01:13:24,039 --> 01:13:28,600
to Jordan all the time, I
wanted him to go to Saint Joe's.

1084
01:13:29,520 --> 01:13:32,319
That was his first school he got
in or like I think I think he

1085
01:13:32,359 --> 01:13:35,760
did early admission and then turned it
down. Wow, And I was going

1086
01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:43,119
on, why Jill, it's a
beautiful and it's it actually goes in the

1087
01:13:43,239 --> 01:13:46,800
city. And now we looked at
that, and we looked at the pea

1088
01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:49,359
and I said to him, you
know this what a great school. It

1089
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:53,720
looked like just a great place.
And uh. And then he's like,

1090
01:13:53,840 --> 01:13:55,920
I really want to be on a
track team and they're doing this. I

1091
01:13:56,039 --> 01:14:00,840
really want to And I thought Roberts
is so small, and I thought,

1092
01:14:00,960 --> 01:14:03,960
I can't imagine what this is.
And my brother goes, not your life,

1093
01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:06,520
man, Yeah, And I think
I might have been the best advice.

1094
01:14:06,560 --> 01:14:09,840
So I backed off. And now
the kid is close to breaking the

1095
01:14:09,880 --> 01:14:16,319
school record for weight throw. And
we actually watched a woman set the division

1096
01:14:16,439 --> 01:14:23,960
two she set it and broke the
division two pole volt record just this past

1097
01:14:24,039 --> 01:14:30,560
Friday at Nazareth And and were you
there, Well, that was we were

1098
01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:32,159
there. Luke had an indoor track
meet, but it wasn't the same track

1099
01:14:32,239 --> 01:14:34,800
meet. We were at Nazareth,
but not for that meet. Yeah,

1100
01:14:34,840 --> 01:14:39,399
this was this, This was Friday
night. Yeah. And then Jen Sure,

1101
01:14:39,560 --> 01:14:43,279
who is the Olympic pall vulter who
went to Roberts Wesleyan is now the

1102
01:14:43,359 --> 01:14:47,880
coach there. Kidding yeah, And
they and this girl left Duke and transferred

1103
01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:53,760
to Roberts Wesleyan. I don't.
I guess it must be because she left

1104
01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:59,319
Duke and she has she right now
and they even announced it she had broken

1105
01:14:59,359 --> 01:15:01,039
the record and and then she rebroke
it and set it higher. I think

1106
01:15:01,079 --> 01:15:03,920
it was like fifteen feet or something. And I have to tell you as

1107
01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:08,239
a parent, you know, and
as a friend there, we asked you

1108
01:15:08,359 --> 01:15:10,239
to go out someplace. I can't
remember what it was. I say,

1109
01:15:10,239 --> 01:15:13,439
hey, look, we got this
going on out comedy thing, comedy comedy

1110
01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:15,560
Charleston. And I say, hey, you know, we got a friend

1111
01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:17,600
who's going to be there. Let's
come. And You're like, ah,

1112
01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:20,600
I'm gonna go watch Jordan. I
was like, you know what, that's

1113
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:24,239
what life is about. Well,
I asked what you did? I mean,

1114
01:15:24,319 --> 01:15:28,000
as a parent live, Yeah,
I needed to. That's awesome.

1115
01:15:28,119 --> 01:15:32,239
Jordan gets in love all jacked out, but he gets like really like quiet

1116
01:15:32,359 --> 01:15:35,279
and intense. And I'll say,
and then where does he get that from?

1117
01:15:35,439 --> 01:15:39,800
But then when the shot put,
he's doing shotput as well, and

1118
01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:43,039
he I guess he didn't do as
well as he wanted. And all of

1119
01:15:43,079 --> 01:15:44,840
a sudden I see him like,
go, why did you step over there?

1120
01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:47,239
I know what I'm doing. He
fouled on purpose. He felt like

1121
01:15:47,319 --> 01:15:50,119
it was not a good enough throw, so he stepped out the front.

1122
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:55,680
The thing that embarrasses me is one
of the guys who's officiating comes over and

1123
01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:58,840
goes, hey, I really like
the podcast and talk about for a good

1124
01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:00,840
five minutes, and he goes,
I've always wondered if this is your son,

1125
01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:03,760
I've heard you talk about it.
And then all of a sudden,

1126
01:16:03,800 --> 01:16:08,079
he's like getting himself all because he
steps out of the ring. I go,

1127
01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:11,359
what, Jordan, what are you
doing? That was not good enough?

1128
01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:15,640
I'm like, okay, okay,
but yeah, And you know,

1129
01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:20,920
one of things that is one of
things I worry about Jordan is I think

1130
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:25,600
Jordan's i mean professional career path.
You know, he's interested going to law

1131
01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:29,159
school and being a lawyer, and
I think that's perfect. And you know,

1132
01:16:29,279 --> 01:16:32,239
going to a school like Roberts and
having an athletic competition and training and

1133
01:16:32,279 --> 01:16:36,600
discipline, that to me, truly
is what helps you prepare yourself professionally.

1134
01:16:38,199 --> 01:16:40,079
And you know, you go to
Duke, you go, you know,

1135
01:16:40,199 --> 01:16:42,880
you do that. You go to
Saint Joees, which is a great school.

1136
01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:45,720
But it's like, what's going to
prepare you best for your professional life.

1137
01:16:46,039 --> 01:16:49,439
I think his experience is for that
well, because I even said to

1138
01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:55,239
him, look, coming out of
high school, I didn't which sounds terrible,

1139
01:16:55,279 --> 01:16:59,039
but I didn't think you were a
good enough athlete to compete with that.

1140
01:16:59,199 --> 01:17:01,239
And then I said, so here's
the advice I have for you.

1141
01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:05,840
Don't listen to anything I say.
You know what I mean. But you

1142
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:10,880
pushed yourself and you transformed your body. You were a skinny guy and now

1143
01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:14,760
you're you know, you're jacked and
you lift wight. You love doing that

1144
01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:16,239
and it's great. And that's what
you know. With Luke, it's like,

1145
01:17:16,359 --> 01:17:20,720
you know, you know, he's
a high school senior. And I

1146
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:26,520
look at the men that play college
football Division three. This year, Alfred

1147
01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:30,800
Brockport, I mean, Courtland is
playing in the freaking NC Double, a

1148
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:36,600
Division three national champions always in the
one Double at New York. Now,

1149
01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:43,560
first of all, there's never ever
been to upstate norsketball teams ever, cross

1150
01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:46,560
lacrosse, they've had cross, they
had all three actually, but I mean,

1151
01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:49,640
it's like, you know, so
it's you know, And I said

1152
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:53,199
to him, I said, Luke, you can do whatever you want in

1153
01:17:53,239 --> 01:17:56,039
your life. It's based on what
you want to do, whatever your goal

1154
01:17:56,119 --> 01:17:58,359
is, whatever your objective is,
if you set your mind to it,

1155
01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:01,439
you understand the path they get there, you will achieve it. You just

1156
01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:10,520
determined. Fo. Yeah, I
agree with that because otherwise it's a job

1157
01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:13,520
and you have to put in as
many hours. Right, So if you're

1158
01:18:13,520 --> 01:18:15,720
following your passion, and there's things, there will be things you may not

1159
01:18:16,039 --> 01:18:20,800
like about doing certain but but overall
it's a love for it and that drives

1160
01:18:20,840 --> 01:18:29,600
you even further. I think.
And the passion comes from the Italian and

1161
01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:34,640
the Jamison side comes from the Iris. I have both. I did want

1162
01:18:34,680 --> 01:18:38,880
to say this because you did bring
up like we had the uh the one

1163
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:44,760
year of the podcast, but the
first sponsor we had was Greg. You

1164
01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:46,920
were the first one because I I
was I wanted to do it for a

1165
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:50,039
month, see how what's this gonna
work? What's I gonna get listens?

1166
01:18:50,079 --> 01:18:53,520
What's I gonna get this? And
all of a sudden my phone rings dingy

1167
01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:54,960
and Greg goes, all right,
here's what I'm gonna do. And I

1168
01:18:55,039 --> 01:18:58,800
was like, all right, caught
me completely off guard, dummy. And

1169
01:18:58,880 --> 01:19:03,800
then and then I waited about another
month and then I started hustling some others,

1170
01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:06,399
but that was the Uh. Yeah, you were the first sponsor.

1171
01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:11,199
So I appreciate that very much.
Thank you. I mean, you know,

1172
01:19:11,399 --> 01:19:15,720
for me knowing you who you are
as a person and knowing your passion

1173
01:19:15,039 --> 01:19:19,880
and your professionalism, I knew that
whatever path you're going to take. For

1174
01:19:20,079 --> 01:19:25,640
me getting that push and that encouragement
to do what I wanted to do my

1175
01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:29,920
way, yeah, I really that
that that gave me the momentum to go

1176
01:19:30,079 --> 01:19:34,000
forward. And for me knowing you
who you are, giving you that little

1177
01:19:34,039 --> 01:19:36,720
push, it was all I could
do. And I was like, if

1178
01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:40,399
I could do that for you,
God Bush you that was that was that

1179
01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:44,000
was awesome to kill that. We've
been pushing and pushing and uh, I

1180
01:19:44,079 --> 01:19:46,920
think that even bigger things for this
year. Yeah. Meanwhile, Tom Ferris

1181
01:19:47,039 --> 01:19:55,439
officially has no comment. All right, well there's the other side. We

1182
01:19:55,600 --> 01:20:01,319
will close it out. What a
win today. Finally, finally, what

1183
01:20:01,560 --> 01:20:06,680
is uh Andy Reid saying? Andy
Reid has said that he was upset that

1184
01:20:06,920 --> 01:20:12,279
before a lot of times he has
told his receivers are told by the referee,

1185
01:20:12,319 --> 01:20:14,000
you're okay, You're okay. When
you come up to the line,

1186
01:20:14,279 --> 01:20:17,720
you're okay. And they didn't tell
Kadavius Tony that he was okay when he

1187
01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:21,039
crossed the line and they threw the
flag. That's what he was upset about.

1188
01:20:21,079 --> 01:20:24,479
He says, the NFL, the
National Football League, this is an

1189
01:20:24,479 --> 01:20:27,279
embarrassment. That's what those are his
words. Bull crap because it's already happened

1190
01:20:27,279 --> 01:20:29,960
to him once. It happened to
him in the AS champions game against Patriot

1191
01:20:29,960 --> 01:20:32,680
in twenty nineteen. Right, shut
your mouth and coach of players. Wow,

1192
01:20:33,279 --> 01:20:40,079
looking from the high ropes Kevin,
that's won high five on that one,

1193
01:20:40,119 --> 01:20:44,960
by the way, And that's what
again, But he's gonna hit me

1194
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:46,239
again, That's what Mahomes is going
off about. At the end of the

1195
01:20:46,319 --> 01:20:49,399
game, he was yelling at the
refs, A yeah, I agree,

1196
01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:53,239
play the game, dude. Join
the club of guys who gets strewed by

1197
01:20:53,279 --> 01:20:56,800
the refs. Okay, well this
time, it's nice to be on the

1198
01:20:56,880 --> 01:21:00,359
other side of this. Who Greg, do you feel like the pressure off

1199
01:21:00,439 --> 01:21:04,399
now? No? He doesn't until
Tuesday? Yeah, right, all right,
