And I'll explain this story later. But at that time,
I never wrote I never. I wouldn't. I don't know
how to do it, like I can relate to the kids,
and I can actually teach the lower levels, right elementary,
I mean I yeah, but uh, I never wrote. So
one of the kids goes mister mister because they couldn't
come up with my last name because I never said
I'm mister Moran, so they didn't.
Speaker 1: Write it on the black Now do they use blackboards anymore?
Speaker 3: No, But there's a whiteboard, there's a marker board there,

Speaker 1: I can pick those cars up by myself. I've done it.
I'm not Union. I have to do it.
Speaker 3: Randy, how what did you think of the Daytona five hundred?
Uh yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 4: Want to see that guy roll?
Speaker 2: And I love Kyle Busch, but and I'm a Jory
Lognald fan, but I'm gonna be wrong with Kyle Busch
saying did Joey Lognald cause the accident?
Speaker 4: He did not? There was a hole.
Speaker 2: He took it Stenhouse, that stupid son of a bitch
to the fucking block earlier or fucking just say it
on his lane and look, or got in front of
Logonald and went through with him like a dumb ass.
Here's the best part, the best part, like ten laps
earlier talking, I said, hey, you know, the guy's in
the bag, or to get to the front pret soon
they're gonna run out of time.
Speaker 4: With no ship.
Speaker 1: You notice how Randy's so calm talking about his brother.
But then when it comes to Ricky Steenhouse Junior, right,
you know he's like when you go when you when
you go to the fair and you take that like
the mallet and you try to like knock the bell
off with the thing.
Speaker 6: Randy, Yeah, I know that stood my kitchen once going
and blood pressure and my blood pressure.
Speaker 3: I was like, I couldn't stop laughing.
Speaker 1: Well, Randy gave us a nice thoughtful article in the Times.
Speaker 3: Oh Times Wayne County. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Every year I have him, I call Hi Nascar Damas
and he picks like what's gonna happen for the now.
He wasn't as sharp last year, but after like eight
years of making predictions and getting you know, everything right,
you're gonna have it off year. Okay, like even the
Chiefs didn't win the Super Bowl this year, you know
what I'm saying. But Randy, Uh, Randy's like bounce him back.
So he's got some predictions. He says Penske racings gonna
be pretty tough to go against it. He thinks Steady
Hamlin's his last shot at with at all, you know
it says Kyle Busch is good, needs to bounce back,
but he's got some uh, he's got some hope in
these some of these guys.
Speaker 3: What do you think, Randy? Who is your who would
be your favorite overall favorite.
Speaker 4: From from the time I started watching No No.
Speaker 1: No this year? Who's winning it all?
Speaker 3: This year? Your overall favorite this year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I tell you it's gonna be. Truthfully, I believe
it's gonna be hard to be anybody at Penske Racing.
It's gonna be Legonald or Blainey. It's gonna happen. We'll
see what happens, you know. I mean there's a lot
of guys like I really need to bounce back, you
know what, Kyle Larson and h h he's great, Elliott
he needs to bounce back. I mean, Denny Hamlin is
Denny Hamlin. I don't like he's not my favorite, okay,
but he's the best driver like Mark Martin who's never
won a championship, you know, deserve it.
Speaker 3: Randy. Are you talking with your hands?
Speaker 4: Believe it? I am.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I can hear your hand hitting the table like

they're just kids. But I guess they really. I mean,
I'm starting to think like young kids or kids, like anybody.
They almost like an animal. They can sense when you're scared,
you know, right, they know, they know. And so I'm
just me and they liked me, and we talked, and
I was cool because my thing was always basically, I'm
here for a day. I don't need to screw up
your world and make lots of rules and things. Let's
just get through the day. You're cool. I'm cool. Maybe
I'm you know, easy, but we're not gonna I'm not
giving out homework and all this stuff. You know, your
teacher back here, that's and uh I did that once
twice and then they called me and said, listen, Uh,
would you just cover for two weeks. So I'm two
weeks doing this and uh, I'm not even a weekend
and it's fine, no problem. Uh, they're kids, they stuff.
And yes, I didn't realize it, which I think you
have to do now. Even though what they're called there's
the the the shelter in place drill, meaning like you
can't go out in the hallways or anything, and that
could be for anything from anybody puked in the way,
you know.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying. No, no, I don't think I'm relieved.
I don't think so. But then there is an active
shooter drill.
Speaker 3: There is, well there is, and you kind of I mean,
I guess it's this shade the window you got, and
then the kids go and sit along. Well, but the
kids don't, so I'm scared. When I was a kid,
we all knew there was no bomb going off, or
at least we thought we did, and we were right
right at the time. Luckily, but we would have to
be we loved it. We have would turn into field
days in the front lawn if the weather was nice
and somebody did it, and that steep police come out
and they'd have to do all the searching and things. Well,
this is like you got to lock the doors and everything.
So the kids are up against the wall, and it
takes a while because the principal has to come to
each room, or maybe he does the second floor and
somebody does a different floor. I don't know, but they
unlock it. And what you're supposed to do is and
I know nothing because I'm yeah, but you're supposed to
give them. You're supposed to give him a sheet of
paper with the attendants on it. So during that time,
the kids are up against the wall. And on the
other side of this wall, it's like those folding gym walls.
Is the other class, the other sixth grade class, and
there's a teacher in there. And I guess one of
the kids in my class got up and said that
it was as hot as hell, and that's something you
can't do. And I guess this young person in particular
has had a serial and at this point in the
academic years it's like I had to write them up.
So she comes over and tells me afterwards. So then
I said, hey, by the way, we were playing a
game where the kids at the very very end of
the day, like you know, they released the Walkers first,
and then it's so during kind of that awkward time
where they're packed up and I try to get them
to do something. So we play this game. They can
log in on their laptop and they and it's an
educational game. They have to and find like flags from
around the country or whatever like that. But they get
to pick their own code name. So I saw some
because some kid wrote he used the girl's name, but
it was you know, like Danielle. Let's say, uh, stinky Danielle.
And I kicked that name out because I'm like, I
know Danielle didn't write that, and I'm sure it's one
of these other little dudes here and I get it.
Why on in the end of the day, So I
have to kick some of these out. And there's word
work here, Dan. Their game is playing. They play, the
game is playing, and whoever scores the points, there's a
leaderboard and you'll pop up on the big screen at
the front of the classroom, big giant screen, think just
a huge one, and they're the name, but they get
to pick their nicknames. And huge Erection Hugh g Direction
is there and I have to go all right, you know,
because like I gotta be the guy. Yeah, I got
the guy who did dick jokes on the radio for
thirty years, the guy who did every stupid thing, the
guy who would call bars back in the day when
I was afternoons and see him in the South and
just to prove how dumb they were, would ask for
huge erection, you know, right, And uh yeah, And so
I I say, who did All of a sudden like
that name drops down from the leaderboard and never to
be heard from again, never seen, never anything, so kind
of who did it? Who did it? And I don't
really think it's that big a deal. I just don't, okay, But.
Speaker 1: Well I guess I wouldn't. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I guess I don't know what the right thing is.
Speaker 1: So to me, it's because you're at the age now
where you realized, Okay.
Speaker 3: Well is this really that? When I get deal? Yeah,
when I said that, I'm I'm at an age I
was the huge Direction guy. Yeah, I we would go
to the payphone. Punishing you went. We went to the
payphone of my high school. That's hold I phone. We
would scrounge up a corner. We're drop it in there,
and it would be at school. But there was the
sports stuff, and sometimes our practice may end a little early,
especially the weather was a little questionable, and you'd have
twenty thirty minutes before the bus came, so you would
go down. I don't even know why we went down there,
because the bus wouldn't even come to that entrance, but
we would go walk all the way down. We get
to the pay phone. All the main office, okay, and
poor missus bay, oh boy, this is babysitting there. And
we'd say, because sometimes if you had a deeper voice,
you would be the one to do it. And sometimes
you even try to make it deeper and go, hey, uh,
this is mister hunt. Uh can you page my son Mike?
I need to I need to get him. And then
we'd sit there and we count. Then I then you
hear the rumbling on the phone because there was a
phone and I was here. You have a phone call.
Count You would be fucking howling, howling. This is that
huge erection got in there, and I go, I was
kicking hims out. I didn't see it. I go, you
got one. Buy me good job? Is what I want
to think in my head that dominic hashak. Yeah, I
mean I thought I was good.
Speaker 1: Thought I was huge erection got in slid right in there,
and so you bet you and that call huge grection
power play student.
Speaker 3: So this lovely woman who teaches on the other side
of the wall, she comes over and she says to me,
I heard this kid, and I I you know, during
that time she was I was right there. She goes,
who was sitting back here? And I go, well, the
usual suspects. You know who they are, But I know
who they are because I knew them. I Here's here
is why I like where I was in life. I
walk in a classroom and I can spot exactly who
I can almost profile every kid. I don't know what
that is, but I can. I can look down and
I go, I know exactly who each kid in this
room is. I know you're an a student. I know
you you should be an a student, but you're me
and you know. I mean, I can see it. I
see all that. So I could see these kids, even
this age. I could see who is what right, And
she said, uh, you know, I just wanted to know
I did I have to write them up? And I
just said to I don't, I don't. I said, what
do they do? No, might be a lunch attention whatever.
And my point with it was like, and I said
to her, I go, I don't want the kids to
hate having to come here because all I am is
in trouble. And she said, yes, but we also have
to kind of curb things in because they do go
on to high school. And she's right, and you need
to have some societal norms and you got to know
how to behave in certain situations. It's like, you know,
they're going to push the envelope and this is this
is what they do. And I was hoping that it
wasn't necessarily an indictment on me. I didn't hear the
kids say it. He may have said it, and it
might I might have gone, yeah, you're not kidding. I
don't even know. I may have said it's in the forties,
like it never ever ever hit me that. He said, Hell,
I just never hit me.
Speaker 1: So but well, yeah, because think of all the dirty
words we had a dumping radio dude There was one
time where when we were working with Rich he was
a producer, George Carlin had died and Tim Russard had
died the same time. So Tim Rustard is lying in
state in DC, which Tommy thought was what's ridiculous, and
he goes, so what we ought to do is a
week later, George Carla does we ought to honor George
Carlin the Wave Washington, and s he honored Tim Russer.
We're gonna play some of Carlin's old bits. So he
hands me the CD. I go in, yeh, CD, folks,
I go in to edit out all the swear words,
and two or three would get buy me And Tommy goes, yeah,
you get desensitize to it.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: The word hell, it's something we were desensitized to like
thirty years ago. Yeah, okay, like the S word, the
F word.
Speaker 3: Those are words that are, like you racist, I should
say with like a kid, right, But I just it
just never I swear I didn't hear it. I may have.
I'm wondering if I even react. I may have turned
around and goes, goddamn right, let me crack a window.
I don't know. I didn't. I mean I haven't. I
don't speak that way in front of the kids like
the other day. But we were doing the size of cells,
the size of Adams and you can look on this
tool and one kid goes, wow, uranus is so big, right,
and so I go, you mean urinus? And what? And
I go, it's urinus and you know it's uranus. But
then later on I go, what do you think is well,
what do you think the sides of the molecules are
on uranus? And they fucking fell out of their chairs.
But here's the problem with that. You blur the lines, right,
you know, you blur the lines everybody right, exactly lass.
So I always love this.
Speaker 1: I know you won't swear, really you need to swear.
Speaker 3: So we now huge directions up there, so I see it.
I asked, who's huge direction? And I kind of figured
out I could if you line guys up and you
have me on the other side of the glass, I
think I got a seventy five percent chance or better
hitting the right person. But I can give you the
four suspects that were there. So I'm talking to this
teacher and I mentioned I go, yeah, I one of
she goes, ooh, She's like, who did it? And I
said I don't. I don't really know. She said, who
do you think did it? And then I go, oh, here's
one or two. She goes, not this. I go, absolutely not.
He was not part of the game. He was walking around.
He de vent sudden and I go, I go, I don't.
She's like, no, you don't understand. She's like, that is
like over the line, and I go yeah, And I
tell her the story about calling the main office and
getting Mike Hunt paged, and she goes, yeah, but that
was one to one. I go, no, it wasn't. I go.
She goes, this is like for the entirely. I go,
this was for everybody in the building, my count you
have a phone call. I mean, what right? And missus
Bay who you thought knew every kid in the school
or old kids went there? So she said no. She's like,
there will be parent complaints if if some kid goes
home and says they were uncomfortable, And she goes, you've
got kids in here, and and I go, yeah, but
so this is what I said. She says, said there
will be parent complaints, right, And I said I go really,
She's like, oh yeah, and she said that that's the thing,
the parent emails and things I mean, and I went, yeah,
that's stuff. I don't even think about it. I go,
I come from a career and I have not said
to anybody that I was on the radio for. I
just don't talk about it. I came from a career
of She goes, I know, like, okay, we did yeah, yes, yes.
So then she said no, you don't understand uh, And
I go, well, yeah, but I don't want that kid
to hate school because now all I did was one
thing that she goes, they know better and she goes,
and what about the kid that really is uncomfortable with that?
What about the kid who never feels like they can
really say anything. They're soft spoken and they And I'm like,
she goes, they need to be comfortable to school too.
Valid argument, I can't. I mean, it's a valid argument.
Speaker 1: I just is that language really making you uncomfortable?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I can't that's the case you should be homeschooled.
Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing I can't. I'm with, I hear
what you're saying, but I can't Christian talk. I can't
dictate to that. And the thing is it would be
probably filed under sexual harassment at most businesses today.
Speaker 1: Because here's the weird thing. Something happened in the last
fifteen years where colleges stop treating young adults as adults
and started babying them. But it's weird that the high
school is trying to hold their feet to the fire
as children, but that once they grow up, they don't
want them to grow up.
Speaker 3: They want them to continue to be children. Does that?
Speaker 1: Does that make sense? In other words, like you want
these kids to grow up and become well established, well
rounded adults. That's what you're training them for. And I
get that. I totally get that they needed to learn
how to function in society above all else, over algebra
and all that other stuff. But then they get to
college and they need safe spaces, and I think the
professors if they fail them, they could lose their jobs. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I don't know, Danny, and I hear those things too.
Speaker 1: Just you gott to wean them off the boob.
Speaker 3: But here's the thing that I always think is like,
it's a small all. I don't think it's the majority
of kids that are not the majority of that like that.
Speaker 1: It's usually the tail wagging the dog.
Speaker 3: And I think that sometimes if you felt like you
were bullied or ostracized, and now you can get a
little power and people run with that power. I don't know,
look at but I don't. I don't look I don't
look at Trump. I don't look at I don't know
what happens like I don't know in places many college
professors that were fired, like we have several colleges here.
I don't think anybody's gotten in trouble for failing somebody.
But I don't know.
Speaker 1: Is there a situation U of R or something similar?
It could be.
Speaker 3: I don't I don't really, I really don't know. And
that's why I always go I always try to look
at it this way and that, and maybe it's a
bad way to say it. Has it happened? Probably?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 3: Is it a widespread thing? I don't think so. I
think most people are a little more rational, like, Okay,
we're not going to get a guy fired, right, he's
trying to raise yours. You're there to learn, Yeah, you
were there to learn, but you should also be feel
like you can be comfortable. And I think if if
somebody remember when we remember now it's almost gonna say
this story too. Remember when we went to Morning Show
boot Camp. Yes, a couple times I went and yes,
and and Bob Rivers was doing the display and he's
talking about how you can text in and nobody's doing it,
and so I.
Speaker 1: Do, well, I know people were texting it with just
like random dumb stuff. So there was he had a
he had a guy who show named Pedro, and Pedro
wrote vote jokes for Jay leto when you went to
tell the story, So all these radio morons fool for Pedrol,
Foo for Pedrol, boot for Pedrol, and then you type
in that's why Jay no longer is working, and everybody erupts,
and Bob Rivers is trying to do a presentation, and
then everybody turns, and then Bob turns around. Del Moran, thanks, buddy,
appreciate that.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 1: Rochester New York Ladies and was well represented.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but but my point was every radio douche had like,
I did not write something dumb. No, I didn't write
something really hack, I go, that's why Jay doesn't have
a job anymore. Yeah, because they go because Pedro's got to.
That's why Jay doesn't have a job. Pedro's writing his
fucking jokes and all you assholes are replauding it. Yes,
that was sort of my statement with it. But uh,
but if I wrote huge erection, there's a chance, uh today,
you could be asked to leave. Yeah, and I'm not
And I know we roll our eyes at it. No,
I know we roll our eyes at it. But so
what I'm saying is, if that kid did it in
a corporate environment, yes, right, and he did that, you
could get yourself in you probably you could get fired.
Speaker 1: You could get fired, yes, you could. You could get
fired for a lot less in corporate. So in the
corporate world.
Speaker 3: This kid, Uh, I think they're gonna suss out who
it was.
Speaker 1: But I feel terrible, but I think there's gotta be like, Okay.
Speaker 3: It's a kid being a kid, right, And my point
was like to her, was I they don't think they're
sexually harassing anybody. They're trying to get something by you
that they know is nasty and then they can break.
Speaker 1: It's all a game.
Speaker 3: Hey man, that was a huge direction. Yes, I got it.
Speaker 1: I'm the funny one.
Speaker 3: I'm the one. It's soph Yeah, but nobody wanted to
own it when I called that out, of course, not
but they secretly, Yeah, don't say anything. Was a huge direction.
Speaker 1: But on the flip side, I could totally understand that
that is where you have to discipline that. I get
that when you get older you can make your own decisions.
While you're under our watch, we need to teach you
here's how the world works. I mean, I'm not joking
at my job right, which is one level removed from HR.
You can't use the word old. You can't use the
word old or young good. You have to say experienced
or junior seasoned, seasoned, well seasoned. But you can't say
little pepper. We've been told, we've been told, hey, I
need to find This is no joke.
Speaker 3: It's a salty old dog.
Speaker 1: My president's doing a call, yeah, called kickoff calls when
we have to rec recruiter. And he goes, I need
to find a black woman, somebody will say, and my
president will say, we will find the best possible yeah
candidate that they yeah, we don't understand my presents like no, no,
according to the law, yes, yes, you need to understand. Yes,
that that's not how we do things here.
Speaker 3: You can't.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you don't understand. He goes, no, I'm telling you.
I get what you're saying. But we will find the
best possible candidate. You can't say what you just said,
even if you're representing, you know, a minority group.
Speaker 3: Here's the bad part with me. And I did say
this to this other teacher. I said, listen, I said,
should I be writing kids up? I said, because I
probably had did ten things throughout the day that I
could have written kids up for. And she's like, well,
she goes, what do you mean? I said, I'll tell you.
I'll tell you what I The way I see it is,
I'm not I don't feel like stopping down the whole
class when I'm talking about cubes and dimensions and this
sort of thing, or we're going to do this experiment
on on bred to see how it gets molded. I
don't feel like stopping because some little kid got up
and he thought he was gonna be funny and he
does a Chevy Chase Pratt fall on his way to
the bathroom and he's laying there and he's moaning, and
I just step over him like I'm an NBA player
and ignore him and it doesn't happen again, Like he
got no attention nobody, so he never does it again.
If I stop and go Okay, I know you're fooling
around and you're faking it, and I've had it.
Speaker 1: What does that do?
Speaker 3: It changes the whole air of the room, and nobody
wants to learn in that environment. And my point is
if your substitute is out for the two weeks, that's
a long time, Like that's an extended time. So I
want to help you actually learn. And I know that
you think most people would go you're a moron. Yes,
but I can handle sixth grade. I can handle sixth
grade math, I can handle sixth grade science, I can write,
I can do all of it. So that's not a problem.
Speaker 1: Do you think it's because they've been teachers have been conditioned.
Speaker 3: I think I don't know about condition Danny. I think
that they get. I think they're up to fucking here,
pardon my French. Every day some kid's gonna do something,
and you've got thirty of them, and you're probably you're
right on the edge. I mean, I'm not faulting teachers,
and I'm not faulting anything but not but but to me,
I also don't feel like slowing down to write you
up because I get what you're doing. I see who
you are. Now sit down, and we're gonna shove this
stuff in through your ears to get in your brain.
Speaker 1: I will send me on the flips. I get that
on the flip side. I'm married to a teacher, and
ultimately she is responsible for the kids grades, even though
she's not responsible to the kids are supposed to be
responsible to the grades. Yes, probably, there's a lot of
pressure that every time one of them fails, somebody upstairs
wants to know, and somebody at home wants to know why.
Speaker 5: Why?
Speaker 1: And nine times out of ten, who side did they take?
Not the teacher, the a whole kid that you raised.
Speaker 3: Well, it's like the customer. You know what I'm trying
the customers.
Speaker 1: They're not a customers, they're pupils. They're there to learn.
Speaker 3: Well, I say, I say to the kids all the time,
and I go, welcome to work. And they'll go, what
this is school? And I said, yeah, but where did
your mom and dad go work? Work? And I said,
and this is your journey. Yeah, but we're not getting paid.
I go, no, but you get knowledge, Yes, you get knowledge,
and you get recess, and you get lunch, and you
get a lot. And then so they start laughing and
I go, come on, it'll be great, We're gonna have
a great day and that, you know. So I have
a little but like today the kid who fell, I
just kept going. All of a sudden, a girl something
goes whipping by my head and she I made a
reference that I think went right overhead. I look around
and go, what was that? And this this girl meekly goes, ah,
I'm sorry I threw something at and she names another
girl across the room, and I go, well, mister McGoo,
you better work on your aim because cause they're like
it was way off target. I mean, but she was
very honest and it never happens again, Like I pointed,
So what am I supposed to do? Stop down, write
this girl up, take ten minutes out of the class
time so everybody can be there and make everybody uncomfortable,
or just move on and go cut the crap, Like
when can't I go get up and get in your seat. Stop,
let's go and that's it. Or I just put up
my hands to go. I'm not you know, because in
the beginning, I think I didn't realize, like it was
like a comedy club. When they dropped the checks, I
would just talk louder, right when they drop a check
at the comedy club and you're eating, it gets loud
in there. It gets it or or it gets louder.
Speaker 1: Okay, so the margaritea you got it.
Speaker 3: It's that kind of stuff. Or it's people writing her,
it's people mumbling, shuffling to get their things. There's just
more movement in the room, so you raise your volume
a little bit. Well, if the kids were talking, I
would do the same thing. And that's where that same
teacher once came over and goes, she came in and
like goes, what's going on? And I and I was like,
what I'm teaching up, I'm doing a math problem on
the board. And she's like, and she sees, she goes
you with me, and she took a kid out of
the room and the whole room changed, like like she
didn't mess around. So but to me, it's like I
didn't care. I just like, no, they didn't say anything.
They they knew but my and they're good kids. I
just I would rather like I don't want to write
you up. I don't want to have you get attention.
You don't want it either to stop and we'll move forward.
Let's go right. That's my only thing, but the huge
direction thing. You get somebody in a lot of trouble
speaking huge erections. Well, excuse me, but that is true.
We will take a moment and tell you about a
teacher who lost a lot and lost a ton. Oh
even more, Wow, this is a double loss, Danny Oh
Lost squared coming next Leo's Nos. Family life can become
incredibly busy. That's why they have to go. Food's perfect
for quick and easy meals from Leo's cafe or deli
like Leo's all homemade, Keisha's Chicken pop Eye one of
my favorites, Shepherd's Pie plus spaghetti and Meatball's Turkey Dinner,
Chicken Palm, and so much more. So easy for anybody
to grab pop on a plate, put in the oven,
put it in the microwave, or use the air fryer.
Either way it's gonna be the delicious, pre packed and
ready for you to grab and go for your next
meal from Leo's. Plus remember fresh baked two dollars French
bread and Italian bread all day ear day. What's the
best thing about Leo's Everything on Deskmats Drive in East Rochester,
open every day service. They He was telling me something
I got distracted.
Speaker 1: I kind of like the two songs you were, like,
play two songs at once? Hey, you know what that
would sound great?
Speaker 3: I used to do on the radio when I was nineteen.
I would play I would get so bored, like I
I couldn't play music. I don't know if I had eight,
I don't know if I have ad but like so
I would just so sometimes I play two songs at
once and just see how long it would take for
the phone is to light up. I would do all
kinds of stuff. I just I had a great there was.
Speaker 1: Brad Davies told me a story when he was working
with Bill Keiller Utica. There was a way.
Speaker 3: To connect lines. Here's what people call me. So you go, hey,
like take a regrest. Yeah all right. And I used
to tape that. I would connect the listeners and I'd
be listening, but I would mute myself like they couldn't
hear me, each of them trying to get me to
play a song.
Speaker 1: That like Keeler would bring up a topic and people know,
I don't want to hear about this. Okay, we'll do
channel left and if you want to hear the conversation left,
like pan you're stereot to the left speaker, and if
you want to hear the song, paned to the right.
And there was a way you could do that now
it was by the Yeah, by the time I got
into radio, I could do that. At w h A M.
They said, don't even don't even think about it. Yeah,
but like and Ane of the other stations, No, we
didn't know that capability of paying one channel into the
other channel, one speaker or the other.
Speaker 3: I don't remember that.
Speaker 1: And they would do it routinely. If you want to
hear the song, turn on the right speaker, if you
want to hear the conversation, turning.
Speaker 3: Your left speaker. Yeah, I kind of blurred the lines.
I don't I don't know. I think sometimes I've done
that all my life.
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, that's our whole lives. Yea, in this point
in this generation.
Speaker 3: I saw a story today, Danny and I don't know,
and that's we'll take us into another topic too. But
thirty one year old Indiana math teacher, Indiana math teacher
just simmer on the one name is Brittany Fairy. Yeah,
with sex conduct after.
Speaker 1: The abusant m Berry having sex with the come up
of my fort and Berry's fifteen year old.
Speaker 3: According to court documents, the teacher sent explicit photos via Snapchat,
including images of sex toys and a stripper poll in
her home before initiating physical encounters the fifteen year old
victims suggested there could have been as many as ten
other victims. Ten other victims, Is this weird to me
that you would do that. When initially confronted about sending
inappropriate images to students, Forton blamed her behavior on her
recent one one hundred and fifty pound weight loss. She
started getting attention she never had in her entire life.
She mentally, I will use the word because it is
retarded at like sixteen or seventeen, Just stop maybe even
emotionally developing or whatever happened that here's the only thing
that I could go armchair psychologists growth that we did,
probably because usually if you lost one hundred and fifty
pounds and your thought, it's a good chance you were
fat in high school. Don't you think even if you
were twenty five pounds overweight or fifty pounds overweight, you're
still high school. Yeah, you were high school husky. And
you know what I mean? High school husky. And she
probably never got the attention, and so now all the
boys are like day, you know, behind them, and.
Speaker 1: You're amazing how mind always goes back to high school?
Yesn't it?
Speaker 3: It does. In Scarring, we say like give me the
seven and you got kind of the base characteristics. But
you know, there were a things that could really be
I think there you determines trauma, traumataz Oh yeah, like I.
Speaker 1: Was told, like I was my class president our twentieth anniversary,
I was told by a couple of people someone's not coming.
Are they multile legitimate reasons, and one that was ridiculous.
The ridiculous reason was, well, I lost my virginity to
this guy who I mentioned earlier in the podcast, and
it was supposed to be to somebody else, and so
I always felt bad about that.
Speaker 3: I just knew him.
Speaker 1: I go, well, they didn't graduate with us. They end
up and this guy ended up like stealing a lot
of money somewhere, so from another classmate's mom. So I
don't think you have to worry. He hasn't been invited.
Speaker 3: Oh good, oh good.
Speaker 1: But I'm like, maybe you should talk to a psychologist
of this year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure.
Speaker 1: I don't even think he's thinking about that.
Speaker 3: So this teacher losing that way. Now, all of a sudden,
and a group of boys from the age i'll say
twelve to eighteen, maybe twenty five, but a group of
boys walking and walking around and they see a hot take,
one of them will do some kind of cat call
or something like damn right. But that way you can't
really identify who it is. They're in a group. Yeah,
they're not gonna do it one on one, but group mentality.
I'm safe, So I'll be and I'll make my boy
laughed little into wolves. So she was immediately suspended when
allegations surfaced, and resigned the next day. This all happened
August twenty second and twenty third of last year. She
now faces multiple charges, including sexual misconduct. The psychological impact
of this it can be bad. And this kid is
saying like he was molested. That's what he says, so
I his grat It sounds like he lives with his grandmother.
His grandmother is like losing her mind over this. Uh.
But this woman, she lost one hundred and fifty pounds
soson Wow, she wore she lost more than Jamison. Yeah,
lost one hundred and fifty pounds.
Speaker 1: She lost the junior she lost, she lost a freshman
at high school.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she lost a freshman in high school and gained
multiple Fris Rogers. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 1: She lost like mister Rogers.
Speaker 3: Like.
Speaker 1: The thing was he he weighed one hundred and forty
three pounds his entire adult life. Huh, one four to three.
That was a big thing. I love you. That's his
whole thing. I love you, And that was like in
his mood in his documentary. The big thing was he
he maintained one hundred and forty three pounds. This woman
lost a mister Rogers plus.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she did a supersize mister Rogers is what she lost.
Speaker 1: Sweater at all but so co and wet.
Speaker 3: Here's the thing that's strange, is you go, you wonder
like you would take somebody like this and feature them
in a weight loss commercial.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right before and way before?
Speaker 3: Yeah, wouldn't you?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I like that?
Speaker 1: Why did you?
Speaker 3: How did you lose all this weight? High school boys?
You know that's saw I get there.
Speaker 1: When we had a boss who like who like half
his own car. Yeah, like, oh my gosh, we thought
you're big.
Speaker 3: Now Yeah, so you know, you go have unprecedented and then
everybody does. But educators too have an unprecedented uh digital
access to communicate with kids right off school grounds and
out of the sight of school anything, right, I mean,
I will say the private school my kid went to
monitored social media as well as I think you can
write anything that emininated from their school and went out.
They knew about it. And anything that they got wind
of that happened on the weekend, something done it if
wind of it, and they were looking not to get
kids in trouble. But there was a standard. You know,
we got to meet the standard. And I don't know,
you get these unfettered access what responsibility does everybody kind
of share in it in recognizing and addressing these kind
of issues. That's the part that you know, you start
seeing warning signs of predatory stuff. You like to think that,
you know, Rachel is just a good and by the way,
married woman, thirty one year old, married woman lost one
hundred and fifty pounds because you were her fat boyfriend, right,
you know what I mean? That's the fat hurt.
Speaker 1: I know more women she lost weight and man and
notly just shed the pounds, but shed the hound.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they shed the pound the hound thing. You
got it, Danny good.
Speaker 1: They're waitresses who work for my uncle. I come back
from college. Wait is that so to? Oh yeah, oh
you didn't hear about this? Yeah what No, she she
lost one hundred pounds, she dyed her hair, and she
got rid of her husband.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh wow, no kid, Well you start feeling something
he's hearing. You start to realize I'm worth more fortunate
that you have to settle, but you didn't feel as
good about yourself. That's and now you know, I know
several women like that.
Speaker 1: Well interesting because I also know other women whom the
guy left because of that. They get themselves in the shape.
This is a classic case. And then all of a sudden,
like the guy wants back and she's like, no, I've
already moved on because you know they call it divorce,
divorce workout or whatever. Yeah, you know, you get in
shape afterward because oh I got to go find somebody
and they just totally you know, do a do a
whole makeover, both sides, men and women.
Speaker 3: Yeah, men and women do it. There's another thing along
these lines of I guess a sexual nature. This unfortunate.
I don't know why you have to go and there's
this kid says, there's probably ten more of us, and
she supplied drugs to the kids. Whether that be alcohol
or I don't know, but that's what the article said,
she supplied drugs. This chick is a chick who was
damaged somewhere along, yes, you know, yeah, and now all
of a sudden she got hot. She did.
Speaker 1: Everybody somehow like has something from high school they regret
or wish they could overdo, or want something that they
want to prove, right. I mean, the movie twenty one
Jump Street is based on that. The movie Grownups is
based on We remember watched that last Yeah, I remember,
We're like, oh gosh, who was the fat dude? I'm
sure he was a King of Queen's. Yeah, Kevin James,
his character goes out rents a sob. He's dressed up
and then they find out he doesn't have so I
thought it was a sob with the top down.
Speaker 3: Now this one was a Cadillac because he comes driving
in into the caddy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hey man, you got a caddy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's like, I don't own this business whatever
it is, the long care business.
Speaker 1: Yeah. He ended up like he was broke. He was
out of work. Yeah, and so then but the point
is that you feel like you have to go back
and prove something to people.
Speaker 3: Well, I think that's I think it's even beyond high school.
I think people would do that, you know, a lot.
Here's another one that's making the rounds now. Monica Lewinsky
was on the Call Her Daddy podcast, and I don't
know the line of questioning. And of course we get
soundbites now, and so things can certainly be taken out
someone out of context. Right, we can hear the clip
and not know the surrounding conversation what led up to it.
But they were talking to somehow, she said, she talked
about Jane Lenno and all the jokes Jay used to
do about her. And she said, when Jay retired, some
media company did who are the targets the most targets
of Jay's jokes?
Speaker 1: They did a word cloud.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess, I don't know, Yeah, the most targets.
This is when Jay retired. And I forget even when
that was ninety I don't even know two thousands.
Speaker 1: So Jay retired in like like twenty twelve, twenty third,
because remember he was supposed to go off there all
nine handed off the Conan. Yeah, and then they put
him in front of like the the eleven o'clock news.
He wasn't doing well, so they were going to move
him to eleven thirty five, Move Conan to twelve o't five.
Conan says, no, I get eleven thirty five. It's the
whole thing. He goes to TBS. They give the show
back to Jay and then later bid made leto hit
the target of all his jokes. Yeah, and then eventually
Jay like walked away. Yes.
Speaker 3: So Monica Lewinsky, who by the way, looks better today
than she did as the chubby intern. But she talks about,
you know, how upset she was that Jay did all
these not jokes, but that she wasn't a public figure
on the list of all the people. She goes, I
wasn't a public figure, And you have to think, like,
how hard that would have been, Right, your twenty three
year old kid, basically.
Speaker 1: President of the United States is bat You're batting your
eyes at the President of the United States, the most
powerful man in the free world, is giving you attention.
You're a former heavy girl. You were kind of heavy,
and she always thought she was cute. Yeah she is,
but she looks great now. But here's the thing that
as I was thinking about it and I was trying
to find because I know TMZ did have some of
Jay's jokes and I was gonna pull them, and I
forgot to do that. But you can just hear the
old Jay like I used to love the Monica Lewinsky jokes.
Speaker 3: Maybe our friend Patro wrote a couple of them. I
I know we all did Monica Lewinsky jokes. I mean,
a Lewinsky is like a known thing. It became if.
Speaker 1: He came for having a tryst.
Speaker 3: No for no, it was like sticking the cigar in
the mat.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay that I thought.
Speaker 3: I thought it was BJ. Yeah, she gave me a Lewinskey.
Yeah yeah, yeah. I don't know a few.
Speaker 1: Things like like like a rhino, like a like an
older man younger woman.
Speaker 3: Yeah, in power. Yeah. So uh. But then I have
to ask this question, and I know that there were
people would be very upset about it, but just in
the in the era of thinking, I guess I don't
even know, thought, well, Monica Lewinsky, we can say was
the victim. You could paint an argument around that, you
could present it in court that she was the you know,
taken advantage of and somebody with power and just the
abuse of power and blah blah blah blah blah. And
then you wonder on the other side, you go and
Bill has a history clearly of that kind of behavior, right,
and you know.
Speaker 1: You could do it. We didn't start the fire about
Bill Clinton, so jecks.
Speaker 3: Yeah. So, but here's the thing. What role does she
play in it? Like, shouldn't she have pulled herself back at.
Speaker 1: Some point if you wanted to, you would have.
Speaker 3: Well no, but my I understand. My point is, though,
what responsibility does she have in it? Where all was
in she's And it's got to be hard. It had
to be hard for her family to hear her talked
about in that fashion. It had to be I can't
imagine how uncomfortable that was, or even just everybody in
your neighborhood knows, and everybody knows.
Speaker 1: You have to have some clout in a family to
have your daughter become a White House intern, to be
that close to the president. Yeah, you gotta have a
little bit of status.
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't you. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean I know that there's those rags to richest
stories there's also like the people who really work real
hard or ego Scouts or whatever. But to have a
woman like like like a Monica Lewinsky like, there's got
to be her family had to have some connections to
get her in that position.
Speaker 3: Possibly, I don't know how any of that stuff works. Uh,
here we go, Jay Leno, nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 5: Tonight, and and Happy Monica Day.
Speaker 3: Everybody.
Speaker 5: Today is Monica Day across the United States.
Speaker 3: Is it a federal holiday?
Speaker 5: I think probably all zippers and half mass I don't.
Speaker 3: Know about that.
Speaker 5: I get you know by now, and you folks at
home said no. This tonight, the whole world, the whole
nation actually watched as Monica Lewinsky unburdened.
Speaker 3: Her soul to Barbara Wolds.
Speaker 5: Well, almost a whole nation wise. I think Bill and
Hillary are watching the Big Repair Cat Valley Special on
the Discovery Channel. The whole I'd like to change the channel.
I don't know where they're remote, I don't know where
it isn't show you see Monica's new hair new I'll
slick down with that hair in gel.
Speaker 1: A low hagging fruit there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I want to see, according to an that
we got the interview, Monica tells Barbara Watson, this is unbelievable.
Speaker 5: That when she pulled up her skirt and showed President
Clinton her thong underwear, she just considered that a subtle
form of flirting. Oh, that's pretty subtle in that up.
I think that sends guys a real mixed message.
Speaker 1: Huh.
Speaker 5: The girl puts her dress over head and goes, what
do you think of that? What she's saying bomb?
Speaker 1: I can't tell.
Speaker 5: Monica also said that President Clinton would often compliment her
on her figure. He would say things like, oh, you
look skinny today. You know, if you didn't think this
guy was the biggest liar in the world before.
Speaker 3: All right, all right, I'm there.
Speaker 1: That was the best joke.
Speaker 3: That was solid. That's why I went out of that one.
And that's a minute forty three into a three minute
and thirty two second Monica Lewinsky. So even at any age,
that's hard to hear. Yeah, you know, you did something
and no one would have found out except that I
don't need I think that she was just I don't know,
like young and impressiable. Meaning was that Linda Tripp got
the dress? Yes, and she said life.
Speaker 1: John Goodman would play Linda Tripp, tell me more Monica.
Speaker 3: But wait, what do you Yeah? Yeah, yeah, but who
would play.
Speaker 1: Molly Shannon played Lewinsky?
Speaker 3: No I know, but who played uh, the former surgeon
general who was at University of Rochester and collapsed And
was it ever ever Coop? No? No, no, woman? Oh gosh,
I don't remember. Oh it was it was Will Ferrell played.
Speaker 1: Okay, we played Janet Reno. Wasn't the surgeon general? She
was the attorney general?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yea, yeah, thank you, the attorney
general if.
Speaker 1: You remember surgeon generals. No, yeah, Jannon Reno.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like that would be hard to watch, right if
you're Janet Reno or a relative or so well, Shannon Reno's.
Speaker 1: Partially responsible for why Clinton got in trouble with Lewinsky
in the first place, but because she had to investigate it, and.
Speaker 3: So she goes to.
Speaker 1: Kenneth's Star, right, yeah, we have to go to a
Republican We can't keep this inhow this all came back
full circle? But yeah, will Flipblake Janet Reno and then
when you she like at that blue dress, but she's
still alive.
Speaker 3: A lot of she came to the university of Rochester,
and she collapsed and went up in the hospital.
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that, Well, there's no better place to go.
Speaker 3: You were doing we were doing the morning show, okay,
because Jamison was born, and Tommy goes, hey, Bill's gonna
take Jamison down to the lobby and let him ride.
Janet Reno she has Parkinson's disease. That's sort of was
she collapsed. It's terrible anyway, I don't as much as
you can have a lot of empathy and sympathy for
Monica Lewinsky, my question is, well, did she play a
part in this? I don't think Bill's I don't think
it was a secret what what that Bill Clinton was
a philanderer. I don't think it was within that circle
in the White House. Somebody knew people talk. There's got it,
there's gotta.
Speaker 1: Be You think that she got winded. It was like
I'm gonna take nicknack.
Speaker 3: No, oh no, I don't. I don't. I think that
though at some point you should also go to a
married man in the president of the United States. But
as much as I get sucked into this, I don't
know you'd like to responsibility. I'm asking the question. Yes,
at twenty three years old. I get it.
Speaker 1: I think there is, but you also have a lot
less will power at that age.
Speaker 3: Yes, and I will say not, I don't not the
intention to bring down a president. Didn't bring down a president,
got elected to a second term, did not, was impeached,
but nothing really came of it. Some people say was
the first You don't set the standard for lying, and
so there we go. Jay's joke just now, but she
became the butt of the joke. Not so much Clinton.
It is interesting that he was able to walk off
sort of scott free, even though he has a real
that's just Bill, Yes.
Speaker 1: Because our standards for him were so low and high. Right,
he's a great president. Yeah, we don't want to upset
the applecart.
Speaker 3: America's great.
Speaker 1: Financed my home at like zero point four percent, but
the economy is great. Yeah, we forgot about the previous
president who cares like I remember my aunt's next door
who lived my grandma, My grandmother lived with us. We
end up taking over her house and her sisters. My
aunts lived next door, and they would from noon till
seven o'clock. They would watch soap operas and the news. Right,
I go overhead, hey and Andy, Chuck, how are you
here about the president?
Speaker 7: I don't care he screws. As long as that money's
coming in, as long solf security checks coming in out
of time, I don't care he screwed. Well, it's almost
like I'm like, okay, you kind of got the old ladies.
Kennedy broke down the door. The word got out that
what he was doing right or there were rumors, and
there were rumors then and then you had a couple
hard asses. Then he had the liar Nixon who lied,
I am not a cru I.
Speaker 3: Am not a crook. And then to me he did
do that laughing. Uh, and then all these different and
then he had Clinton who lied, and some people go, well,
he made it easy for everybody to lie, not about
sexual relations with that one. I remember cutting that up
and leaving the cart in the studio. I was still
in maybe Collin or just now, and I had it
say I did have sexual relationship.
Speaker 1: This was late nineties, Yeah, ninety six, ninety seven, ninety
eight around there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was out of college. Okay, but I was.
I don't know where it was, but the uh, anyway,
she did have some culpability that of course, that's my
question everybody knew.
Speaker 1: See the thing is, remember remember the whole Janet Jackson
situation with Justin Timberlake. Yes, okay, twenty one years ago.
It was two thousand and four. If does it happened
today justin Timberlake, I think would be the guy vilified,
not Janet Jackson, because we live in more of a
quote woke era. So now Janet Jackson will be the
victim of one misogyny and two racism. Okay, But in
two thousand and four she was the butt of the jokes,
not justin Timberlake. You ripped her freaking shirt off, yeah,
he did it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So like if you want to about female empowerment, okay,
back in two thousand and four, everybody went after her,
not just a timber Lake, and she had to apologize.
He didn't. Today, I think it would be the apps,
the absolute app Well, I think it might.
Speaker 3: It might be the opposite. It might be or maybe
equal part. I don't know, Probably probably more him. I
don't know. I can't figure any ofthing shit out.
Speaker 1: That's how far the pendulum swap.
Speaker 3: I think it overcorrects.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it does, definitely, But like four was really
close to like ninety seven. Y. Yeah, Clinton was He's
just a slat.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 1: Saturday Night Live made him such a caricature that, Okay,
I can't do anything wrong. Yeah, because that's why they
called them teflov People loved like women women. That's the
funniest part.
Speaker 3: Women women loved.
Speaker 1: Him, and they loved Hillary too. It's so weird.
Speaker 3: Not the young women didn't love Hillary.
Speaker 1: No, the young women didn't, but the older I think
the older women loved Clinton because they were working and
the women he was with weren't necessarily attractive. I think
they identified with the so so the fives out of tens. Yeah,
I could get me a bill.
Speaker 3: There's an argus, I could get me a pres She
was a LA four in Arkansas nine point five. We
will take them off.
Speaker 1: Guesson l had a lot to do with like humanizing
the president. At that point, I have a question.
Speaker 3: There is an NFL team that I would say the
owner of the team. It's almost like the commissioner of
your fantasy football league bought an NFL team.
Speaker 5: That is what this is?
Speaker 3: Like, I wrong, yep, Yes, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 3: Yes, And I have questions for you. Dan burrilla. Okay,
But about this team and what the NFL should do,
if anything, we'll get to that right after this. It's

Speaker 5: Actually, there were some interest moments, like when Barbara Walters
asked Monica did you ever think about Hillary? And she said,
you know, I don't do women, so I don't know.
Speaker 1: Even the crowd is like, no, you think this is
the last one here of monarchy? You think this is it?
Speaker 5: Now?
Speaker 1: Can we stop with this?
Speaker 5: How you think her fifteen minutes of staying are finally over?
Thank you very much?
Speaker 1: Well, o't run CBA.
Speaker 5: Shanaiah Twain on her big musical special, I felt sorry
for tonight. See that brings up the age old question
of the guys.
Speaker 1: Who do you watch the nice girl, the pretty girl.
Speaker 5: You can take home to mom or the chief slender
girl you know puts out? Everybody goes to Monica.
Speaker 3: Oh see, see like And was Monica really like that?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: That's the stuff that looking back over so many years,
knowing that you're twenty three and all this stuff.
Speaker 1: You know, I think most twenty three year old women
would have gotten caught up in the scene. Yeah happened.
I do too.
Speaker 3: But I can't say. You can't. You can't say there's
no culpability there, No, you can't. She's not an idiot.
She's not an idiot.
Speaker 1: She's responsible. She got a white house, the third chips
can't be stupid.
Speaker 3: Actually, if you look at was I don't know, but
I'm just I'm just saying.
Speaker 1: And herschel Walker almost got to got to the sentence, Okay,
everybody's got an IQ of like eighty.
Speaker 3: The New York Jets.
Speaker 1: Herson wants chicken wings ahead of a very disappointing season.
Didn't they diagnose it with schizophreddie at one point?
Speaker 3: I don't know, did they?
Speaker 1: I think so? Hersdel's hungry? Do you know what Herdel
likes to eat? He would ask his wife.
Speaker 3: The New York Jets had a disappointing season, more than that,
and now that disappointing season has quantifiable evidence behind it,
would that be fair to say, Dan, this is fantastic.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 3: As the owner, Woody Johnson has officially earned the worst
owner grade in the NFL, according to the NFLPA, which
is the NFL's Players Association's annual report card. The Players
Association surveyed its members to create a quote unquote free
agency guide so teams would know, or players would know
what teams are really like. Now, don't forget last year
at the bottom of the lifts, the chiefs in facilities, Yes,
right in facilities. So I don't know. Woody Johnson I
think had a B minus plummeted to an F. Players
specifically criticized Johnson for his perceived unwillingness to invest in facilities.
They look nice on all the stuff I saw, but
I don't know, didn't they Harden not? Actually, his negative
impact on team culture and his questionable commitment to building
a competitive team. The Jet season was marked by controversies,
including the midseason firing of Robert Salam reports that Johnson
veto to trade because a player's Madden rating was too low.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's true. Diana Rossini from The Athletic documented all this.
Speaker 3: Letting your son run your team based on Madden or
social media is kind of like letting your favorite bartender
do your surgery because they watched graves of aatomy.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
Speaker 3: It's like the same thing in my head. I go,
you just you wouldn't do that, right.
Speaker 1: So let's put it this way. Who's the biggest Bills fan.
Speaker 3: We know the biggest Bill's biggest Bills fan?
Speaker 1: You and I both know Greg Greg Connors, Right, Yeah,
Greg Connors I think could own an Yes, okay, but
I think Greg Connors would know. All right. If I'm
going to own the team, I need to hire the
right people to show me my blind spots and what
I don't know Okay, and Woody Johnson is I think
a fourth generation air of the Johnson and Johnson throne
or something like that. And he has never once tried
to figure out his blind spots.
Speaker 3: Okay, but hang on a second now, because here's where
my thinking goes. As fans, we constantly blame coaches and players,
rafts a little bit, but coaches and players.
Speaker 1: I blame coaches and players.
Speaker 3: What would it take for fans to successfully pressure an
owner like Woody who's worth billions and ranks dead last
among his peers in terms of ownership, to actually sell
a historic franchise. Could the fans get that that he's
running into the ground. Could fans do something because normally
we would say it's the players, and it is, it's
the culture, it's the whole mint mess. But he seems
to be the guy stirring the pot.
Speaker 1: I think the pain to change has to be great,
has to be less than the pain to stay the same.
Speaker 3: Yes, right.
Speaker 1: I think if you're a Jets fan, you gotta you
can read new year season tickets because you want to
keep him form the next guy. Sure, but don't go
to games. Just eat the money, just just eat the
tickets or try or sell or or sell them to
every team's opponent that's coming to town or whatever. You
cannot I mean or because the only way this guy's
gonna get can is if the owners all oust him.
Stan Sneyder pretty much got forced out because he found
out he was stealing money from the.
Speaker 3: Other owners' a lot of but it took, but it
took a mountain of evidence.
Speaker 1: It is like a ten year investigation to get him out.
And he's still they still like almost didn't do it.
Speaker 3: So we're not we're not hearing allegations of sexual harassment. No,
but he's just an ask yes, okay, so he's the
bad owner. So here's my question. How much influence does
an owner have on day to day the day to
day operator as much as he wants? Okay, so we
I say that, And and of course we all think
of the biggest owner in the NFL, the guy the team.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't go to the coach, he smiles, They
will start, they don't.
Speaker 3: I am the owner, I'm a general manager.
Speaker 1: Yes, I did the press conference right, right, I mean
he's the reason why Dian ain't coaching the Cowboys right now? Well,
the right Brian Schottenheimer.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean you may as well hired Greg Connors to
coach team. Okay, I think Greg would do a better job.
Greig would ever take that. Maybe if if Jerry called
Greg up, you think he'd talk about the Bills.
Speaker 3: For well, we're talking to Jerry Jones as an owner, yes, right,
is very outspoken and in the day to day operations
the media goes. There's no other team that the media
talks to the owner before they talk to the coaching players.
Speaker 1: There's only been a handful of teams that do this.
They've done this in history. When George Steinberner was available,
the media would go to George.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: When when Al Davis was headed all his marbles, everybody
would go to Al. They wouldn't go to the head coach.
They would go to Okay, there's not many teams and
they're not successful historically long term. The Raiders, he got
away with it because they won a few championships. But
he had good coaches and good players, right.
Speaker 3: But I mean, look, is I would say Terry Pegoula,
is he as involved in the day to day operation
of the Bills. I would think I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I think he lets Pete Gwelly and Brandon Bean and
Sean McDermott who I think so. I think Sean McDermott
and Peak Weelly are the most powerful guys in the organization. Okay,
they're running the show. He's just there to like sign
the checks and make sure like he's dealing with like
the building and everything else, the new stadium. I don't
think he's tinkering, and in.
Speaker 3: Fact I know he is because I mean, and at
what point does the NFL step in if ownership gets toxic?
And yet at the same time a low NFLPA thing?
Is this just players airing their grievances, That's all it is.
Speaker 1: So that's that's all it is, right, and it doesn't.
Speaker 3: It's just a way to apply pressure on problematic franchises.
I don't know. I mean, it's something, right, I don't know.
How the bills graded.
Speaker 1: Oh, the bills were interesting. They went from eleventh last
year overall to twenty third. They dropped twelve points and
they got an F minus and team travel saying that
the coaches and the administrators get to sit in first
class on the plane, well, the rest of the team
has to sit behind them in these cramped little spaces.
Apparently the team plane isn't big enough, okay, And to me,
it's like you're on a chartered shit, since you all
be in first class, since you all get the first
class treatment. Well, apparently, like you know, Terry's not spending
the money on travel. They got an F minus in
that head coach and ownership got a B. Last year
they both got a's, okay, so that is down a
letter grade. Head coach ranks twenty seventh to the NFL.
So what that tells me is that after the grades
came out the last couple of years, I think the
coaches have become more player friendly. So though tide has risen,
so I don't think that Sean mcdermot's become a worst
coach towards I think everybody else has just gotten better
with their players. So that, I mean, a B is
still a hell of a grade for a head coach.
You know, ownership is still a B. So they still
like Terry. He's like seventeenth in the NFL. But I
mean there's some other stuff where you know there's a
here's a big one. The training staff got a C,
which was twenty seventh in the NFL. Everything else is
a b are up their weight rooms in a And
you also to remember with the facilities and everything else,
they are building a new stadium, so that's gonna go up.
Terry Pagol is not going to spend money on new
facilities with the current facilities. He's gonna put all that
money into the new stadium. So when they get over there,
those grades will rise automatically in another years. So overall,
I think the Bills did okay, But with Woody Johnson
and the Jets, there's nothing. I mean, the guy is
still he was an ambassador to Ireland. The guy's got
a ton of power. If they couldn't get Dan Schneider
out of football and believe he wouldn't sell us, they
basically hold the gun to his head. And they got
a huge He got a huge profit on it. He
made like one thousand percent of what he paid for
that franchise, which, by the way, Washington, until he got
his hands on it was a historic franchise. They were
heritage if they were like one of the top eight
most popular teams in the league until he got his
hands on it. And I think they're on their way
back up.
Speaker 3: I really do.
Speaker 1: It's what ay chants would basically have to pull a
Donald Sterling to get tossed from the NFL. In other words,
say some racist stuff on I camera or on tape,
and then we have to force you to sell. I
get that, but for a sexual harassment suit. That's what's
forced Jerry Richardson out of Carolina.
Speaker 3: When you look at the cycle of dysfunction that the
Jets have had, which I'm glad they have, but oh yeah,
absolutely right, one less thing to worry about. The East,
they had high profile signings Aaron Rodgers. We all thought
that was just gonna go way different than it did.
And you have to wonder why did the Jets continually
fall into the same patterns and what fundamental changes would
actually break that cycle. And I think a lot of
people will go a different owner. Well, I think fresher eyes,
or he needs to get a better GM, or somebody
step away.
Speaker 1: He had I keep calling Hugh Douglas. It's not his name.
Joe Douglas was the general manager. Joe Douglas comes from
the Philadelphia Eagles tree, the Howie Roseman tree. Guy's a
sharp dude. Yeah, and he couldn't get Woody to like
buy in. I think maybe Aaron Glenn, maybe because he's
a former Jet, he's a defensive guy. I mean, do
you realize what a mess Detroit was for decades?
Speaker 3: Decades?
Speaker 1: The Lions were awful until Dan Campbell and Ben Johnson,
who by the way, was not an offensive coordinator. Two
years ago, Duce Staley got sent packing. They realized they
got him out of there in a hurry, and they
went with Ben Johnson on the defensive side. Aaron Glenn's
been there well, and they rebuilt that defense, and they
had twenty different injuries on that defense, they still built.
I think he might be the right guy to build
it up. But we said that about Todd Bowles, we
said that about others, and then they also hired guys
like Rex Ryan, who were a circus act. I don't
know if anybody. I don't even think Bill Belichick could
go in and fix that ship. I think the only
guy in America who could do it. And I really
believe this the only guy who could fix the New
York Jets Sean McDermott. No, oh, I don't think he
could fix it either, Okay, Andy Reid, Oh, maybe because
kids City did not get good grades last year at all, least.
But the one good grade they got was A plus
and the coaching they love Andy Reid and he got
into the A plus again this year, so that is
I mean, I think he he has no interesting going
to the Jets. The Jets are lost. As long as
Woody Johnson has his hands on that team, they are lost.
Speaker 3: I hope. And by the way, like, if you want
to hear more, dude, the Patriots Robert Kraft I think
got en f Yeah, all right, Danny, I gotta wrap
this up since I have to go to the bath
They're thirty first. I have to go to the bathroom
so badly.
Speaker 1: The Patriots are thirty first, think the worst than the Jets.
Kevin take that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Cat, I don't know he had hockey stuff, Okay,
miss him.
Speaker 1: This is Wan Tom Soups.
Speaker 3: For Dan, Burrello for Raison, Randy for Dan. Who my god,
I tell you what, I just drop a little bit
of sports stuff. You can elaborate, you know.
Speaker 1: It all a barely paying attention, No, I know, but
you you're like in depth.
Speaker 3: That was great.
Speaker 1: I appreciate that.
Speaker 3: I'm Bill Moran.
Speaker 1: We'll see you next time.
Speaker 3: We were kind of night with Tanna see
