Speaker 3: Bulldog barn Burner of a Thursday night cam.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Baba Jaggs were playing last night with that score
Speaker 2: twelve to six. No touchdowns scored last night, twelve to six.
Speaker 2: The Rams, the red hot Rams beat the these fading
Speaker 2: forty nine ers last night. Josh Joshua Carty kicks four
Speaker 2: field goals for the Rams. It was a slugfest. Who
Speaker 2: would have ever thought the Rams, they just beat the
Speaker 2: Bills last week forty four to forty two. All right,
Speaker 2: we're in a shootout and now they're Yeah, now they
Speaker 2: can't score a touchdown against the forty nine ers. The Rams, though,
Speaker 2: they're eight and six now, they're only a half game
Speaker 2: behind Seattle for the division lead. And of course the
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers are just banged up injured. They're
Speaker 2: not going anywhere the rest of the season, I don't think.
Speaker 1: And that was supposed to be a really good game.
Speaker 1: If you guys remember going into it because of what
Speaker 1: you said the Rams kicking ass previously.
Speaker 2: Man, what a downer, no question. Other NFL games this
Speaker 2: week the Bucks at the Chargers. The Bucks have been
Speaker 2: sort of loading up on cupcakes, so it's gonna be
Speaker 2: interesting to see if they can hang with the Chargers,
Speaker 2: who have a really good defense. The Bucks defense is
Speaker 2: banged up. I actually like the Chargers to win that game.
Speaker 2: Miami's at Houston. Miami needs to win to stay in
Speaker 2: the wildcar race. I don't know if they can because again,
Speaker 2: Miami's when they play good teams, especially on the road,
Speaker 2: they don't usually fare very well. I mean, they also
Speaker 2: have been loading up on cupcakes this year. Do you
Speaker 2: do you like your Dolphins this week? Lynch?
Speaker 3: I think they're gonna get it done Sunday.
Speaker 2: I hope so. I hope so. I think they're gonna
Speaker 2: get it done. Of course, nobody cares about the Jets
Speaker 2: and the Jags, but they are playing up in Jackson
Speaker 2: team going ahead to head real quick, Lynch.
Speaker 1: Do you think that the Jags pregame meeting as if
Speaker 1: you win, you're fired.
Speaker 2: They need one week? I know.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm saying, if you win this week, you're fired.
Speaker 1: You need to lose we need to dump the season.
Speaker 3: Be having that conversation in both locker rooms.
Speaker 2: Actually, Bulldogs, the slate of NFL games is terrible this
Speaker 2: week except for the man that is going to be
Speaker 2: a game.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 2: You got Josh Allen and what that beast going up
Speaker 2: against that Lion's offense. Talk about a shootout. I think
Speaker 2: this could be a shootout because Detroit can score, Buffalo
Speaker 2: can score. We'll see what happens. It's hard to pick
Speaker 2: against the line at home, isn't it? I wanted I
Speaker 2: would not Speaking of the Lions, the Lions fan and
Speaker 2: to the altar, the the flag holder at the the
Speaker 2: Lions Packers game. Did you hear about this story? Yeah,
Speaker 2: he got into a He got into a shouting match
Speaker 2: with the Packers players and the coach, Matt Lafleur. He
Speaker 2: was actually one of the guys holding the giant American flag.
Speaker 2: He was giving the throat slash signal to the Packers
Speaker 2: during the national anthem. God dude, he got he got
Speaker 2: his season tickets for God. Yeah yeah, Hey. Bill Belichick
Speaker 2: had the press conference yesterday. He won the press conference
Speaker 2: at the University of North Carolina. He was named the
Speaker 2: head coach. He was cracking jokes talking did you see
Speaker 2: my face? Did you see my face? Choked that he did?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Pat, he goes. You know me, I'm not
Speaker 2: gonna act. Took him a huge social media pro or
Speaker 2: anything he goes. You know, I can make my way
Speaker 2: around my face.
Speaker 3: You know what would have been great is if he
Speaker 3: came out and did his typical no comments or I'm
Speaker 3: just worried about I'm just worried about worried about Buffalo
Speaker 3: this weekend.
Speaker 2: Just worried about recruiting, right, yeah, right, just worried about
Speaker 2: the transfer portal this week Hey, yeah, it's gonna be
Speaker 2: it's gonna The more I think about this, I'm starting
Speaker 2: to like this higher. I'm changing my mind on it.
Speaker 2: I went from this is a terrible hire to hey,
Speaker 2: at least it makes him relevant. And now I'm thinking, hey,
Speaker 2: if Dion Sanders can go to a place, and when
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick should be able to so we'll see what
Speaker 2: happens here. You still hate it, don't you, Lynch. I
Speaker 2: don't hate it. I just I just Scott. I'm skeptical.
Speaker 2: That's the word I used yesterday, and I'm sticking with it.
Speaker 1: I think it's great because Prior to this, I saw
Speaker 1: the interviews directly with him where he laid out what
Speaker 1: he said yesterday of Hey, I'm gonna raise these kids
Speaker 1: to get a great education and a great football upbringing
Speaker 1: and be ready for the NFL if they are, I
Speaker 1: like it.
Speaker 2: Speaking of college football head coaches, Dan Mullen, the former
Speaker 2: Gator coach hired at UNLV yesterday. He has to settle
Speaker 2: for the UNLV job. I think he wanted to UCF job.
Speaker 2: Of course Scott Frost got that, so Dan Mullen going
Speaker 2: down the ladder. The guy has had I think the
Speaker 2: reason Dan Mullen didn't get a better job. He's a
Speaker 2: great X's and those guy. He actually had a thirty
Speaker 2: four to fifteen record at Florida, went to three New
Speaker 2: Year Six Bowl games, fired in his fourth year. He
Speaker 2: just doesn't want to work hard at recruiting, doesn't like
Speaker 2: to do any of that stuff. So I think he
Speaker 2: had to settle for the UNLV job.
Speaker 3: Hey, interesting, did the Bulldog get his Heisman voting on
Speaker 3: time or is it submitted?
Speaker 2: My Heusman vote is submitted. They will make the announcement tomorrow.
Speaker 2: I'm not allowed to tell you who I voted for.
Speaker 2: Although I will say I meant Travis Hunter. He just
Speaker 2: cleaned up on the awards last night at the award show. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean he won the AP College Football Player of
Speaker 2: the Year, He won the what else? He won? The
Speaker 2: Walter Camp Award, the Chuck Bedneric Award, the Balitnikoff Award,
Speaker 2: he won the award for Best Wide Receiver, and the
Speaker 2: Chuck Bedneric Award for Top Defensive Player. Is what does
Speaker 2: that tell you? Yeah?
Speaker 3: It tells you what's gonna happen tomorrow night. Okay, gotcha
Speaker 3: moving right along?
Speaker 2: Probably? Hey, does this story surprise you guys?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 2: So? The MLS Cup was last week. The championship game
Speaker 2: in MLS the LA Galaxy New York Red Bulls, two
Speaker 2: major media markets. Obviously, the two teams in the league
Speaker 2: drew only four hundred and sixty eight thousand viewers. That
Speaker 2: was down fifty percent from last year, all right, fifty percent.
Speaker 2: NWSL championship game Orlando Pride versus the Washington Spirit drew
Speaker 2: nine hundred and sixty seven thousand viewers doubled the MLS Championship.
Speaker 2: Does that surprise you, guys?
Speaker 3: I don't think either of those leagues should be very
Speaker 3: proud of those numbers, and uh, you know it, just
Speaker 3: I think the popularity of soccer in this country gets
Speaker 3: overblown by the media when you get down to brass
Speaker 3: tax and the ratings of the brass Tax, bull Dog,
Speaker 3: come on, be honest.
Speaker 2: Well, well, the fact that MLS went down fifty percent
Speaker 2: from last year, I think is an indication that this
Speaker 2: Apple TV package is not working for MLS. I mean,
Speaker 2: out of site, out of mind people. People aren't watching
Speaker 2: during the regular season, so why are they gonna watch
Speaker 2: the championship game? I think that's what this is. More
Speaker 2: in the indication of it. I think the NWSL rating
Speaker 2: was great for that league, quite frank. Championship game was
Speaker 2: on IBC, so I mean, yeah, yeah. So anyway, I
Speaker 2: was shocked when I saw those ratings that the NWSL
Speaker 2: doubled MLS cup. Hey may plus, women's sports in this
Speaker 2: country is surgery right now, let's face it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, made the top one hundred women. By
Speaker 1: the way, speaking of women's sports.
Speaker 3: High Magazine Icon of the sports Icon.
Speaker 2: Of the year. There you go.
Speaker 3: All right, hey, Bulldog, real quick, who you got Army Navy.
Speaker 3: Tomorrow we're gonna talk more in depth with that Mark
Speaker 3: Daniels later about this, but who you got.
Speaker 2: Well, you've got to pick Army. They've had such a
Speaker 2: great season. I would have liked to have seen Army
Speaker 2: get into the playoff quite frankly, but uh yeah, you
Speaker 2: gotta pick Army in this one. Army by Double Digits.
