Speaker 1: It's time for coffee and Company.
Speaker 2: Fueled by Thornton's on Sports Talk seven ninety Holy crap,
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 3: Know who the hell we think when we.
Speaker 2: Are get off our show, idiot, the kids are crying
Speaker 2: or turning off, crying or comforts are.
Speaker 3: Screwing it up.
Speaker 2: Gold Play Inner Murals, Brother, gold Play inter Murals.
Speaker 3: They're supposed to be mature adults, but they're really not.
Speaker 1: Who's the kid here?
Speaker 3: Who's the kid here?
Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? Now?
Speaker 3: Here's nick Coffee. I feel like somebody in our programming
Speaker 3: department has set me up to look rude because I
Speaker 3: didn't sign off on that. I have no control over
Speaker 3: when my invitations go out, but I feel like inviting
Speaker 3: somebody at two fifty nine PM and fifty five seconds
Speaker 3: into the fifty ninth minute of the two o'clock hour
Speaker 3: is a rude thing to do. I mean, if I
Speaker 3: invite you somewhere, it's like, Hey, John, I've got I
Speaker 3: got tickets to a game. We're about to tip off.
Speaker 3: Do you want to come? I'm here court side?
Speaker 1: Like that's what that is?
Speaker 3: Right? Like? Why does that get you know? It's silly?
Speaker 3: Like I don't really care, but I care enough to
Speaker 3: where it's distracted me to start the show today.
Speaker 2: I think it would come off better if it's said
Speaker 2: coming up next on Sports Talk seven ninety instead of
Speaker 2: today at three on Sports Talk seven ninety.
Speaker 3: Like it's just a waste of a five second spot, Yeah,
Speaker 3: because like it serves no purpose. Right, I'm here already
Speaker 3: like five seconds away from the show actually starting, So
Speaker 3: again it's a wasted invitation. And again I think it's
Speaker 3: rude because I've just extended an invite in a chipmunk
Speaker 3: voice that they have processed and sped up to make
Speaker 3: me sound like I'm a thirteen year old here on
Speaker 3: the air. But anyways, apologies, I can't control it. So
Speaker 3: if you're here, thank you. I guess you didn't need
Speaker 3: an invitation. You just knew to be here, So thank you.
Speaker 3: It's Coffee and Company. We are fuel about Thornton's here
Speaker 3: on Sports Talk seven ninety. Nick Coffee, That is me
Speaker 3: the company man, mister John all on alongside today as
Speaker 3: we take you up until six o'clock. Don't forget you
Speaker 3: could take us with you wherever you go. Listen live
Speaker 3: on the iHeartRadio Web Listen live at seven ninety Louisville
Speaker 3: dot com. Did you get stuck in traffic too? I did,
Speaker 3: and it was not fun.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Again, there were four different four I counted them, four
Speaker 3: different fire trucks on the side of I sixty five north,
Speaker 3: right in front of the fairgrounds. And I would I mean,
Speaker 3: I assume that they had cleaned up a wreck, but
Speaker 3: like they're just just tailgating, just tailgating out there on
Speaker 3: sixty five just yet is everybody's hanging out? I mean,
Speaker 3: I'm sure they were doing something really important, much more
Speaker 3: important than what I'm doing. But like it never like
Speaker 3: it's it's one of those really really silly things that
Speaker 3: I can't control that it bothers me this much. But
Speaker 3: whenever I'm when I'm late, and I wasn't really late.
Speaker 1: I was here on time.
Speaker 3: We were both here on time, weren't late, but we
Speaker 3: said in traffic, I don't know, i'd say that probably
Speaker 3: added would you say, maybe fifteen minutes to our community
Speaker 3: about which you know it's not you know, it could
Speaker 3: be a lot worse than that, right, But you know
Speaker 3: it's not that I want to get up to the
Speaker 3: to the where the traffic ends and everything's open. I'm
Speaker 3: not I'm not up there looking around hoping to see
Speaker 3: somebody in an accident that might have, you know, injured
Speaker 3: them seriously or even worse. It's not like I'm rooting
Speaker 3: for that. I don't want that, at least I don't
Speaker 3: think I do. But whenever I end up sitting in
Speaker 3: traffic and you know, you got all the you end
Speaker 3: up getting past the jam right where they've got all
Speaker 3: lanes closed but one, and then you get up there
Speaker 3: and then you can finally get through when you don't
Speaker 3: have When there's when I don't see what kept me
Speaker 3: from getting to where I needed to be at the
Speaker 3: time I wanted to be there, I just feel like
Speaker 3: I've been I don't know, like I've been robbed. So
Speaker 3: I don't know what happened, but it did cause a delay,
Speaker 3: and that you know that that stinks you probably it
Speaker 3: probably it probably doesn't. It probably doesn't even like you
Speaker 3: don't even think about that, do you know?
Speaker 1: I was I was just a me thing. You know,
Speaker 1: I was bothered today.
Speaker 2: This doesn't bothered me every time I see it, But
Speaker 2: whenever I just, like you said, want to be at
Speaker 2: a place at a specific time, trying to get ahead
Speaker 2: of the game. That type of thing, and then it
Speaker 2: feels like I'm just wasting my time the way that
Speaker 2: I saw those four fire trucks there. Who again, they
Speaker 2: had something, they were taken care of. It was clearly
Speaker 2: already done by the time you and I got up there. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know about that though. You're just gonna trust that.
Speaker 2: I'd like to convince myself of that to keep it
Speaker 2: from being more pissed off about it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're, look, you're you're on the right track.
Speaker 3: I'm I'm I'm being petty here, but you know, like,
Speaker 3: how do we know about it?
Speaker 1: Because it did look like they were tailgating there. They
Speaker 1: would just have so many of them too.
Speaker 3: And again, in all seriousness, there's no way they would
Speaker 3: have done that if there wasn't some kind of an incident.
Speaker 3: But I didn't see an incident. I just know that
Speaker 3: I was fifteen minutes later than I needed to be
Speaker 3: for reasons I'll never know now. Last time I asked
Speaker 3: for a reason. We later found out that somebody had
Speaker 3: jumped off of an overpass and that's why the entire
Speaker 3: interstate was closed. So I don't think that that happened today,
Speaker 3: But if so, that's you know, really sad, and you know,
Speaker 3: thankfully we made it here on tom and hopefully everybody
Speaker 3: drops safe and there's no accidents, there's no traffic and
Speaker 3: people can get where they need to go, all right,
Speaker 3: So rarely what I want to start off with a
Speaker 3: Monday night football recap, which we're not going to do.
Speaker 3: I mean, it was interesting to see last night Rogers
Speaker 3: make his debut with the Jets and actually play the
Speaker 3: whole game before ending up, you know, hurting himself like
Speaker 3: he did last year, which is really crazy that on
Speaker 3: nine to eleven he runs out there, what three plays
Speaker 3: into the game, he's down and you know, misses the
Speaker 3: entire season. We actually found out yesterday that Netflix, I guess,
Speaker 3: followed him and covered his recovery from injury, which I'm
Speaker 3: sure that'll do numbers, because you know, that kind of
Speaker 3: stuff does really well in the streaming world on Netflix.
Speaker 3: Documentaries and they do that really well. I mean, I
Speaker 3: feel like as far as the new fresh stuff that
Speaker 3: hits Netflix. You know, maybe it's just my personal preference,
Speaker 3: but like they do documentaries, whether it be a series,
Speaker 3: a mini series, or just a you know documentary special,
Speaker 3: they do those really well. But like I can't think
Speaker 3: of something I'd rather watch less on Netflix than Aaron
Speaker 3: Rodgers behind the scenes stuff. But hey, there's clearly a
Speaker 3: market for it. I mean, Pat McAfee has ESPN paying
Speaker 3: Rogers an insane amount of money to come on a
Speaker 3: show each week so he can talk about you know,
Speaker 3: COVID not being real and all that kind of stuff
Speaker 3: like that Rogers typically does. But anyways, last night a
Speaker 3: very you know, interesting result. No McCaffrey, but no problem
Speaker 3: for the Niners, as they ended up winning without much trouble.
Speaker 3: And it was a guy that a lot of people,
Speaker 3: myself included, had never heard of that became the talk
Speaker 3: of the evening the first Monday Night Football all the game,
Speaker 3: the first Monday night football game of the season. It
Speaker 3: was Jordan Mason who stole the show. He filled in
Speaker 3: for McCaffrey, ended up having one hundred and forty seven
Speaker 3: rushing yards with a touchdown on twenty eight carries. And
Speaker 3: you know, McCaffrey's a special, special player. I think we
Speaker 3: all know that, but last night was one of those
Speaker 3: nights where you got a wonder Okay, is it more
Speaker 3: about this offense and the play calling and the balance
Speaker 3: that makes I mean, that's not really the case, and
Speaker 3: mcaffrey's been good everywhere he's gone. But it was a
Speaker 3: really impressive showing from the Niners overall to be without
Speaker 3: their best player and really have no problem with the Jets. Now,
Speaker 3: maybe that says more about the Jets than anything else,
Speaker 3: but nonetheless, Jordan Mason was the star, but he's probably
Speaker 3: in the doghouse with some of the brass within the
Speaker 3: forty nine ers organization. Did you see what he did
Speaker 3: last night?
Speaker 1: John?
Speaker 3: I did not, so after the game, he was he
Speaker 3: was asked when he found out he'd be the starter. Now,
Speaker 3: I was at my son's football practice yesterday at like
Speaker 3: seven point fifteen, and I got the notification that McCaffrey
Speaker 3: was out because he's resting his achilles. He's had injuries
Speaker 3: really pretty frequently. But he's out. He's not gonna play.
Speaker 3: So you would think that, like, man, they were gonna
Speaker 3: give it a go, they were going to try to
Speaker 3: see if he could go. Oh but man, he's out
Speaker 3: there on the field and it's just not right. So
Speaker 3: they're going to hold him out. Obviously, first game of
Speaker 3: the season, you won him healthy. He's an MVP caliber player. Well,
Speaker 3: when asked about when he found out that he would
Speaker 3: be starting. I think Jordan Mason gave an honest answer, When.
Speaker 1: Did you find out that you were going to be starting? Well,
Speaker 1: not find out maybe Friday, Friday night, you know what,
Speaker 1: something like that.
Speaker 3: I mean, I think he's not even thinking about what
Speaker 3: he's supposed to say. He's just giving an honest answer,
Speaker 3: and visually it almost looks as if he's kind of
Speaker 3: curious why they're even asking that, And in all seriousness,
Speaker 3: I don't think that's like an unusual question. But I
Speaker 3: don't know if every sideline reporter would have asked that.
Speaker 3: But then again, maybe because he's like most people have
Speaker 3: never heard of him, he's nept. That was his first
Speaker 3: ever time starting a game in the NFL, so maybe
Speaker 3: it is a normal question. Like I don't I don't
Speaker 3: believe that the sideline reporter would even be thinking to
Speaker 3: try to set him up. But regardless, she asked a question,
Speaker 3: he gave an honest answer, and by giving the honest answer,
Speaker 3: it's sounds like he revealed that the Niners broke a rule,
Speaker 3: because you know, if in fact, they knew Friday and
Speaker 3: they didn't announce it till till today, then you know
Speaker 3: that's that's not something you're supposed to do. I mean,
Speaker 3: I'm trying to figure out the exact Yeah, it says
Speaker 3: here that if what he said is true and they
Speaker 3: and he found out on Friday that he was that
Speaker 3: he was going to play and McCaffrey was not going
Speaker 3: to be available, the Niners would have broken then NFL
Speaker 3: rule by listing him as questionable with the chance of
Speaker 3: playing despite not that not being the case. So this
Speaker 3: is where it just gets like we talked about this
Speaker 3: not that long ago, if you remember John, because they're
Speaker 3: the SEC is now requiring teams to do the same
Speaker 3: thing and provide an injury report. Well, the NFL does
Speaker 3: that obviously, but you could always get around it, can
Speaker 3: you not, like.
Speaker 1: Just by being as late as possible with it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like you can like he could say that he
Speaker 3: he he found out Friday that he might be playing
Speaker 3: because McCaffrey was questionable, you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 3: you could always give yourself an out to where you
Speaker 3: could get away with lying because you can.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know they don't need the full we
Speaker 2: don't need as you know, the peons of the NFL
Speaker 2: viewing we don't need to know the full truth until
Speaker 2: absolutely necessary.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Now, whenever you are in bed with the sports
Speaker 3: books and you've got people you're consumers of your product,
Speaker 3: you are in you are telling them to bet on
Speaker 3: these games with all these sports books that you that
Speaker 3: you partner with, Like, that's part of the NFL business
Speaker 3: now right there. I mean, you can bet on games
Speaker 3: at the NFL stadiums in certain instances, depending on where
Speaker 3: you are. So, I mean, I don't even know what
Speaker 3: legal action there could actually be, if there is any
Speaker 3: legal action that could be taking place, but like they
Speaker 3: do at least need to give the perception that they
Speaker 3: care a lot about this, right they need. So I
Speaker 3: don't even know what kind of punishment they could realistically
Speaker 3: give the Niners for this, because again, I feel like
Speaker 3: the Niners can just say, yeah, we told him Friday
Speaker 3: that he might be playing, he might need to be available,
Speaker 3: and he might start, but that's because we thought at
Speaker 3: that time that McCaffrey was still going to be listed
Speaker 3: as question. But like you could, there's no way to
Speaker 3: prove that unless they just decided to completely own up
Speaker 3: to it. So it's an interesting situation for the NFL
Speaker 3: because I'm not really sure what they could do to
Speaker 3: truly hold the Niners accountable, if anything at all, other
Speaker 3: than maybe just like giving them a reprimand. But you also,
Speaker 3: you know, you have to, you know, if somebody was
Speaker 3: mad that they made a wager. And by the way,
Speaker 3: this is where it gets tricky. I have a buddy
Speaker 3: of mine who he was on one of the sports books,
Speaker 3: and John, I mean, I'm just gonna tell you it's circa.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's not shod thing. I mean, hey, that's
Speaker 3: your you know, I'm you just turn your mic off
Speaker 3: because that's your that's I'm not getting trying to get it.
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to give away your money here. But
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, like, if what they did is is
Speaker 3: is legit here as far as you know, avoiding the
Speaker 3: entire parlay because of McCaffrey, like that's just you know,
Speaker 3: in fact, let me see exactly what it is they
Speaker 3: did here because he mentioned it and I thought, you
Speaker 3: know what, that's that to me seems Yeah, So they
Speaker 3: avoided the Christian mcain jaffrey legs of a parlay, but
Speaker 3: kept the other legs open. The other legs ended up hitting,
Speaker 3: but they avoided the entire bet. And by the way,
Speaker 3: it was not it was not Circa. I'm sorry, it
Speaker 3: was Caesars.
Speaker 1: There we go. So Circa is good.
Speaker 3: But that's I mean again, you should you should pay
Speaker 3: that as a like let's say it's a four leg
Speaker 3: parlay and two legs involved McCaffrey, you should void that
Speaker 3: and they should get credit. And clearly the juice is
Speaker 3: going to be different because there's not as many parlays,
Speaker 3: but like you should adjust that and honor that as
Speaker 3: a two leg parlay, right or if it's a parlor,
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know how you would do it.
Speaker 3: If it's like a strip, like avoiding the whole bet
Speaker 3: like that's that's that's where somebody might have wagered a
Speaker 3: lot of money. And again, if they avoided the bet,
Speaker 3: they get their money back. They're not keeping it. But yet,
Speaker 3: you know, you just got to be mindful of that
Speaker 3: because this is where you are now in the NFL.
Speaker 3: You aren't technically like a sports book, but like they're
Speaker 3: affiliated with you in a major way, and you make
Speaker 3: money from the money that the sportsbooks give you to
Speaker 3: be embedded within the National Football League. So it's not
Speaker 3: a huge deal. It's just an interesting revelation here because
Speaker 3: I don't know if we've been in this position before,
Speaker 3: and I'm sure there's a lot of people that you know,
Speaker 3: if you are out there gambling for a living, I mean,
Speaker 3: God bless you, but like you know, some people could
Speaker 3: have really financially been impacted by McCaffrey, you know, not playing,
Speaker 3: and yet the league and the Niners probably no deep
Speaker 3: down that if they were truly going to hold like
Speaker 3: if they were truly like you know, a lot of
Speaker 3: tector tests kind of stuff, if you've got like somebody,
Speaker 3: I mean, again, this is all silly, but let's just
Speaker 3: say the NFL made it to where there is somebody
Speaker 3: at every practice that is there to make sure that,
Speaker 3: like you're being honest about what's going on with your injuries,
Speaker 3: Like that would be overkilled. That would never happen. But like,
Speaker 3: if they did that, then I believe that McCaffrey would
Speaker 3: have probably been listed as out for the game four
Speaker 3: days ago rather than you know, an hour before kickoff.
Speaker 3: But he was asked about it after the game in
Speaker 3: the press conference. What you just heard a minute ago
Speaker 3: was actually on the field. But here's what he had
Speaker 3: to say. Uh, when asked about it in the press
Speaker 3: conference afterwards.
Speaker 1: When did you find out that you'd be in the
Speaker 1: starting lineup? That question right there is where I'm at.
Speaker 3: Uh, That's why I don't like really talking to media,
Speaker 3: because you say one thing wrong, and Dan, you're the
Speaker 3: media's fault. I don't know, just skip that question. I
Speaker 3: mean I kind of feel for the guy because I
Speaker 3: don't think he did anything wrong. He's just green and naive,
Speaker 3: and a lot of players, certainly guys who might have
Speaker 3: actually had a bunch of starts under their belt as
Speaker 3: an NFL player, might have done the same thing and
Speaker 3: just answered on his question because this is I mean,
Speaker 3: you're thinking that's a harmless question. Again, as I mentioned earlier,
Speaker 3: when he's asked on the field, he kind of seems
Speaker 3: a little bit like taking aback that that question was asked.
Speaker 3: Not that he was bothered by, but like, uh, I
Speaker 3: don't know, like maybe Friday like he just that wasn't
Speaker 3: what he was probably expecting to be asked. But anyways,
Speaker 3: I just thought that was I thought that was interesting. Also,
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna say it, guys, the Manning cast is back,
Speaker 3: and I'm just wondering how, like how long can this
Speaker 3: be good? Like I've always felt like, as much as
Speaker 3: I believe Peyton Manning is awesome, very funny, could be
Speaker 3: an actor, like he's great and I'm a fan and
Speaker 3: I'm biased, but Eli has actually been the dude who
Speaker 3: just got made fun of all the time for being,
Speaker 3: you know, having always having resting bitch face and looking
Speaker 3: like he hated life and just looking like he had
Speaker 3: less than one percent of the personality is that his
Speaker 3: brother had, and then since retiring, like he's funny, he's sarcastic,
Speaker 3: like I think he's great. So I love these guys.
Speaker 3: I just don't know if this is gonna if this
Speaker 3: is that sustainable. I'm sure it is because last year,
Speaker 3: you know, I found myself at times really wanting to
Speaker 3: listen to that for a good chunk of the game
Speaker 3: rather than the actual live broadcast. You could put the
Speaker 3: most interesting and most entertaining people in a show just
Speaker 3: like the Manning cast, and I would still naturally want
Speaker 3: to hear the live announcers because that's just how I've
Speaker 3: watched games my whole life. So I'm always gonna go
Speaker 3: back and forth. But like, I don't know, like I
Speaker 3: guess because I'm not as much of like a I
Speaker 3: don't nerd out for football like some people like, you know,
Speaker 3: I love football, and I think I know enough about
Speaker 3: the talk. I know enough about the game to talk
Speaker 3: about it, you know, somewhat intelligently. But like when they're
Speaker 3: talking about the predicting plays or describing what happened, that
Speaker 3: just doesn't really interest or entertain me that much because
Speaker 3: I don't think I'll ever need to know that kind
Speaker 3: of stuff, right, Like, I'm not you know, if I
Speaker 3: learned something thing cool, But I'm worried because I love
Speaker 3: these guys. And last night they had a man, Adam
Speaker 3: Sandler on who I Love by the way, one of
Speaker 3: my favorite actors of all time, and he claims that
Speaker 3: he jinks Aaron Rodgers and caused that interception that he threw.
Speaker 3: But like, I just I don't know. I mean, it
Speaker 3: wouldn't shock me if this thing kind of loses its
Speaker 3: steam a little bit. Now, there's no point in not
Speaker 3: bringing it back because it was such a big hit.
Speaker 3: Clearly there's there was enough viewership for it. They've got sponsors,
Speaker 3: and if you are a celebrity and you get invited to,
Speaker 3: you know, jump in on this broadcast wherever you are,
Speaker 3: which a lot of celebrities have, like you'd be foolish
Speaker 3: not to because I mean, it's a huge platform, But
Speaker 3: I just I don't know, like, because it's so non
Speaker 3: traditional in regards to like actual a broadcast, that's what
Speaker 3: makes it intriguing. But at some point, I feel like
Speaker 3: a lot of people are gonna want to naturally go
Speaker 3: back to hearing somebody call it like it's just we've
Speaker 3: watched games the same way forever. What they're doing with
Speaker 3: the Manning cast is different and it's cool, but I
Speaker 3: just don't know if it's gonna be the go to
Speaker 3: for a lot of people. And I am saying that
Speaker 3: as somebody who loves the Manning's probably more than most,
Speaker 3: Like Peyton Manning's my favorite player of all time. I
Speaker 3: didn't really have an opinion on Eli until he retired,
Speaker 3: Like he's funnier than Peyton Manning on this in my opinion,
Speaker 3: Like he's he's kind of got like that childish little
Speaker 3: brother humor that actually that actually works. Have you ever
Speaker 3: watched much of it?
Speaker 1: John?
Speaker 2: I haven't, And I was gonna ask you, what do
Speaker 2: you think the target demo is for that specific great
Speaker 2: question broadcast, because I feel like most younger people like
Speaker 2: myself that are watching the NFL aren't watching the Manning cast.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say it's probably you know, just a
Speaker 3: just a rough guess. I'd say thirty and up. That'd
Speaker 3: be my guess, because it's crazy, is that, like Peyton
Speaker 3: Manning has been out of the NFL for ten years now.
Speaker 3: I mean that's I mean, that's crazy to say, or
Speaker 3: nine years, I should say. And you know, if you
Speaker 3: are somebody that is, like, you know, I'm sure you
Speaker 3: you're you know John Woody twenty six now twenty seven,
Speaker 3: twenty seven, So like you remember Peyton Manning playing.
Speaker 2: Yes, but you know it wasn't And again I also
Speaker 2: wasn't as into the NFL back then.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so again I don't look trust me. I'm not
Speaker 3: bringing this up to like act like it's overrated and
Speaker 3: it needs to go away. It's just I'm curious, as
Speaker 3: I watched it last night, I'm just curious, Like am
Speaker 3: I am I in the minority that actually, even though
Speaker 3: I love these guys, I just naturally when I'm watching
Speaker 3: a game, especially if I'm into it because I've bet
Speaker 3: on it, which, by the way, the parlay did hit
Speaker 3: last night. I'm just I'm gonna want to hear somebody
Speaker 3: giving me the standard typical duo that is somebody on color,
Speaker 3: somebody doing play by play, like who is the Money
Speaker 3: Night Football crew? That was the worst because they went
Speaker 3: through I mean, they've got it right now with Buck
Speaker 3: and Aikman. I mean, those guys are, in my opinion,
Speaker 3: the best. But before that, it was Joe Tests, who
Speaker 3: just you know, I like Joe Tests, but I get
Speaker 3: why a lot of people don't. Booger McFarland was on it,
Speaker 3: Lou Riddick I think at some point, and man, Jason
Speaker 3: Witten did it for maybe a year.
Speaker 1: He was terrible.
Speaker 3: So like they had a rough little stretch there where
Speaker 3: everybody agreed, Like man, money in football just does not
Speaker 3: feel legit anymore because you don't have those legendary voices
Speaker 3: like when Mike Turico did it for so long with Gruden.
Speaker 3: That was great and they had that run for a
Speaker 3: long time. But all I'm saying is you could put
Speaker 3: the worst group out there. You know, let's say Booger
Speaker 3: and Witten and you know, Joe Tests and Brian Greasy
Speaker 3: I think is a part of it, Like let's just
Speaker 3: say that was still the crew. I think I would
Speaker 3: find myself leaning more towards listening to that traditional then
Speaker 3: listening to Manning and Manning. Whenever they're not there at
Speaker 3: the game, they're not giving you actual, you know, play
Speaker 3: by play. They're just kind of, you know, goofing off,
Speaker 3: which is funny, it's entertaining, but I don't know, I'm
Speaker 3: just just curious, just throwing that out there because I
Speaker 3: think a lot of people like it, But like, do
Speaker 3: you actually like when you're watching an NFL football game, like,
Speaker 3: for example, last night, if you're a Colts fan or
Speaker 3: you're a Titan span er, a Bengals fan, and you're
Speaker 3: watching that game and it's a big game, are you
Speaker 3: even thinking about going to the Manning cast because they're
Speaker 3: kind of, you know, lightly discussing it and you know,
Speaker 3: it's just different.
Speaker 1: Just just just curious.
Speaker 3: I'm sure some people have already texted in, probably telling
Speaker 3: me I'm an idiot. The Manning cast is great, or
Speaker 3: maybe some people are agreeing with me. I'm not sure,
Speaker 3: but just so you know, if you want to be
Speaker 3: part of the show today, you can. You can give
Speaker 3: us a call five oh two, five to seven one
Speaker 3: seventy nine hundred is the number again, that's to call
Speaker 3: in five oh two five to seven one seventy nine hundred.
Speaker 3: You can also text in on the L and N
Speaker 3: Federal Credit Union text line at five oh two six
Speaker 3: five three zero seven ninety A lot to get to today,
Speaker 3: No guests schedule. Well, we are going to have a giveaway.
Speaker 3: We've got tickets to give away, and John, I gotta
Speaker 3: tell you, I feel honored to be given away what
Speaker 3: we're giving away this week? The rest of the week
Speaker 3: today through Friday, we're given away tickets to see Brooks
Speaker 3: and Done.
Speaker 1: No, that's all, are you?
Speaker 3: I mean, come on now, Brooks and Done. I mean
Speaker 3: I've given away a lot of things on these airwaves,
Speaker 3: some cool stuff, some random stuff. We've given away money,
Speaker 3: I mean not my money, but you know, the company money.
Speaker 3: But today I'm giving away tickets and again it's the
Speaker 3: rest of the week. Brooks and Done. Baby, they're gonna
Speaker 3: be here in Louisville on April twenty sixth. And how
Speaker 3: about the supporting artist David Lee Murphy.
Speaker 1: You kidding me?
Speaker 3: Might be a little dust on the bottle. John, you
Speaker 3: know that song that's a classic. I got a hot take,
Speaker 3: and it's a hot take about David Lee Murphy that
Speaker 3: I'm sure not a single soul on this planet would
Speaker 3: agree with dust on the Bottles not his best song.
Speaker 3: We'll talk about that later, but anyways, coming up at
Speaker 3: five point thirty, we will give away two tickets to
Speaker 3: see Brooks and Done at the KFC Young Center April
Speaker 3: twenty sixth. It is their Neon Moon tour and I'm
Speaker 3: gonna be there. I mean, I can't take these tickets,
Speaker 3: but like, I'll get tickets somehow because I got I mean,
Speaker 3: that's probably I'm not even exaggerating when it comes to
Speaker 3: going to see any musician in an arena, because I'm
Speaker 3: not a big arena like I concert guy, it's just
Speaker 3: not my thing. I like artists and whatnot, but like
Speaker 3: consciousness really aren't my jack. Yeah absolutely, but even that
Speaker 3: at times feels a little too much for me. Like
Speaker 3: I just live music is just not my jam, like
Speaker 3: you know it is other people's no pun intended, but
Speaker 3: you know, a humongous crowd of twenty two thousand plus
Speaker 3: at a concert just gives me a panic attack thinking
Speaker 3: about it.
Speaker 1: But I would do it.
Speaker 3: I'd suck it up for Brooks and Done because they are.
Speaker 3: I mean, they're legendary talking Ronnie Done kicks Brooks. Come
Speaker 3: on now, I mean, who.
Speaker 1: Else is opening other than David Lee Murphy. It's just them?
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, they got enough songs they could play for
Speaker 3: you know, they don't need an They don't really need
Speaker 3: much of an opening act, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: I mean, David Lee Murphy's just there to get you
Speaker 3: kind of eese into it exactly. I mean, I'm excited.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is America. If you don't like Brooks
Speaker 3: and Done, get the hell out. That's the way I
Speaker 3: see it. Just my thoughts, you know, just sharing my thoughts,
Speaker 3: which is what I'm supposed to do on the show,
Speaker 3: which I'll do the rest of the way. All Right,
Speaker 3: some things we'll get into. With no Louisville football in
Speaker 3: action this week, that's a real bummer. As I said yesterday,
Speaker 3: I really feel like the season hasn't actually started yet.
Speaker 3: But it's okay, your top twenty team, you are still,
Speaker 3: i think, among many other teams realistically in the hunt
Speaker 3: for the playoff. And you can say that now and
Speaker 3: it not be crazy, because again there's twelve teams they
Speaker 3: get in and not for that's not me predicting they
Speaker 3: get there. But with it being a bye week, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna throw out at least try my best the rest
Speaker 3: of the week to throw out some really impressive stats
Speaker 3: about Louisville football. And I know some of these stats
Speaker 3: have come against teams that don't matter Austin p Jacksonville State,
Speaker 3: but still, like there's I think it's safe to say,
Speaker 3: although we didn't learn a whole lot about this team
Speaker 3: given the opponents they played, momentum, the vibes are still
Speaker 3: good for louisvill football and even though it's a bye week,
Speaker 3: we can still we can still celebrate and be excited
Speaker 3: about this season. Also, the Tyreek Hill bodycam arrest video
Speaker 3: is out, and man, it is not saying the situation
Speaker 3: is exactly because it's really not. The situation between Tyreek
Speaker 3: Hill and the situation that happened with Scotti Scheffler is
Speaker 3: not the same. I mean, both guys did obviously get
Speaker 3: themselves in trouble and we were waiting on bodycam footage
Speaker 3: to kind of see what happened. That's similar. But what
Speaker 3: I mean is the reaction because of how divided we
Speaker 3: are in this world in this country, I should say
Speaker 3: we didn't need the bodycam video. We didn't need it
Speaker 3: because if you if you were just looking to be
Speaker 3: you know, as some people I'm not saying this, but
Speaker 3: some people call them boot lickers. Like he could have
Speaker 3: said that the officer had bo and you would have
Speaker 3: said that it was justified for Tyreek Hill to be
Speaker 3: pulled out of his car and thrown in front of
Speaker 3: ongoing traffic. But if you're somebody that you know thinks
Speaker 3: that every cop is a tyrant, then he could have
Speaker 3: been you know, he could have pulled a gun on
Speaker 3: the guy and you would have defended him. Like nobody
Speaker 3: really needed to see the body cam footage. You knew
Speaker 3: what you were going to react with regardless, you knew,
Speaker 3: and that's just I hate that that's where we are,
Speaker 3: but that's where we are. So it reminded me exactly
Speaker 3: of the reactions were similar in my opinion, because again,
Speaker 3: you're not thinking for yourself. You're thinking and reacting based
Speaker 3: off of what you think your party in, what you
Speaker 3: think you're you know, hope, you know, the leader you
Speaker 3: hope to lead this country. How would react? That is
Speaker 3: the way, And we're all sheep, I mean I'm not
Speaker 3: because acting for myself. But I'm also not into politics
Speaker 3: and I'm not here to speak, you know, to preach
Speaker 3: about politics, but like I will look, listen, observe, gather information,
Speaker 3: and make an opinion for myself that I don't care
Speaker 3: if anybody agrees with or not. Didn't that used to
Speaker 3: be how life was? Isn't that how life used to be?
Speaker 3: Now you don't think for yourself. You just feel like
Speaker 3: you have like a standard you know you're supposed to
Speaker 3: just side with. Because that's what I mean, it's it's
Speaker 3: it's sad to be honest with you, and I hate
Speaker 3: to get so worked up about it, but that's that's
Speaker 3: Yesterday was just sad for me to see and like
Speaker 3: people that I know and that I love are like
Speaker 3: that too on both sides, So like I didn't, I
Speaker 3: think I didn't need for them to watch the body
Speaker 3: cam footage to get to know what the reaction was
Speaker 3: gonna be. I knew, and I know everybody listening right
Speaker 3: now knows somebody with the exact same way on both
Speaker 3: sides of it.
Speaker 1: That's just where we are.
Speaker 3: Also, when it comes to Kentucky football, I mean, it
Speaker 3: ain't it ain't good man. It ain't good. You got
Speaker 3: the big dog out there. Vince Marrow going back and
Speaker 3: forth kind of with fans who might be, you know,
Speaker 3: encouraging John Sumrall to come back to Lexington and get
Speaker 3: Stoops and his band out of here. I mean to
Speaker 3: my behavior from Vince Marrow on Twitter. And he's a
Speaker 3: made man. They're giving him credit for Jasper Johnson committing
Speaker 3: to Mark Pope crazy right.
Speaker 1: So he's a maid man.
Speaker 3: He got a raise last week, Like this guy is
Speaker 3: untouchable in Lexington. But man, like, stay off Twitter, bro,
Speaker 3: likelet'll be going back. I mean, like, who's to gain
Speaker 3: from that? It just makes you look worse. So again
Speaker 3: we're loaded today.
Speaker 1: Stick with us.
Speaker 3: I'm yelling, I'm fired up. I don't know if that's
Speaker 3: good or not for the show. But well, I'll calm down.
Speaker 3: It's coffee and company. Feel about Thornton's right here on
Speaker 3: Sports Talk seven ninety great song, great song, not even
Speaker 3: a top ten Brooks and Dune song, though this is
Speaker 3: probably my favorite Brooks and Dune song. Look, there's a
Speaker 3: lot to choose from.
Speaker 1: There is a lot.
Speaker 3: I mean, what about Neon Moon. I don't know if
Speaker 3: you's good? You can't beat Neon Moon.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a reason the tours in the after it, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's great.
Speaker 3: I mean I mean even like one that probably is
Speaker 3: not nearly I don't know, it's it was a later
Speaker 3: hit for them. When I say later, I mean, you know,
Speaker 3: much later than when they really became a big deal
Speaker 3: in the nineties. But like Red Dirt Road, you kidding me, like, yeah,
Speaker 3: that's a good one. I mean, they got a lot
Speaker 3: of good ones. And if you're wonder where we're talking
Speaker 3: Brooks and Done, it's because we're going to give away
Speaker 3: tickets this week the rest of the week. Our first
Speaker 3: giveaway will be at five thirty some Louisville football trivia,
Speaker 3: So you might want to brush up on your Louisville
Speaker 3: football trivia if you want to be the winner today.
Speaker 3: I'm going to try to get creative as best I
Speaker 3: can to give these tickets away differently throughout the week,
Speaker 3: but we shall see. It is Coffee and Company we
Speaker 3: are feel about Thornton's right here on Sports Talk seven
Speaker 3: ninety again. Just got confirmation today that our fine folks
Speaker 3: over at Thornton's have once again decided to be the
Speaker 3: title sponsor for this show. You know, partnerships mean a
Speaker 3: lot to me obviously because you know, not to sound
Speaker 3: so self centered, but when somebody is going to sponsor
Speaker 3: this show and you know, make their business with us
Speaker 3: at iHeart, specifically through me and my show, I mean
Speaker 3: obviously that helps me. It makes me look good. But
Speaker 3: like that's a partnership. And for them to now be
Speaker 3: going into year number this is the fifth year, is
Speaker 3: that right? Yeah, twenty twenty one, two three, Yeah, this
Speaker 3: will be the fifth year that they've been the title
Speaker 3: sponsor for this show. So quite literally, I am fueled
Speaker 3: by Thornton's, not just coffee and Company. The previous name
Speaker 3: of the show was The Red Zone. But Thornton's a
Speaker 3: big part of my brand here with seven ninety and
Speaker 3: I really do appreciate them, Kelly, Alex, everybody who's been
Speaker 3: involved over there through a page. I want to make
Speaker 3: sure I give all the I mean to everybody involved,
Speaker 3: even like the people who work at Thornton's when I
Speaker 3: go there that you know now under like it was
Speaker 3: wild the first one, when the one opened near where
Speaker 3: I live, John, you know which one I'm talking about. Yes,
Speaker 3: that's one of the newer locations. You know, I'd been
Speaker 3: going in there pretty frequently at that point, even though
Speaker 3: they'd only been opened for a few months. At the time,
Speaker 3: we did a remote and I showed up and the
Speaker 3: manager was like, you're here all the time, and I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 3: it's a true you know, like even if I even
Speaker 3: if I wasn't fueled by Thornton's within the show, I'd
Speaker 3: probably still be there because you know, I love Thornton's
Speaker 3: and there are kids and this is this is uh,
Speaker 3: this one. This actually shows how effective marketing can be
Speaker 3: with this type of partnership that we have with this
Speaker 3: radio show. But you know, there were people who would
Speaker 3: come up to me at tailgate with like their little kids,
Speaker 3: and their kids would say, he's the Thornton's guy. I mean,
Speaker 3: it's not like every kid did that, but there were
Speaker 3: There's when twice that that's happened, because especially when I
Speaker 3: was on in the mornings, there would be people who,
Speaker 3: you know, their morning commute would be with with with
Speaker 3: my show, and they'd be taking the kids to day care,
Speaker 3: to school or whatever. And I've had some people tell
Speaker 3: me that they don't like whenever their dad listens or
Speaker 3: their mom listens to uh in fact, we had when
Speaker 3: we moved into our neighborhood. That was the first thing
Speaker 3: that the girl, like little girl across the streets said
Speaker 3: to me, is that that her I think she might
Speaker 3: have said her grandmother, which I wasn't expecting that and
Speaker 3: maybe her dad listened to me. And I was like, oh,
Speaker 3: thank you so much. I appreciate it. Just like, actually,
Speaker 3: don't like when they listen to you. I'd rather listen
Speaker 3: to music than listen to you. And I'm like, well,
Speaker 3: I get it. You're seven, you know it makes total sense.
Speaker 3: But anyways, big, big thank you to Thornton's. I really
Speaker 3: do appreciate that.
Speaker 1: Again, you know that.
Speaker 3: It's something that doesn't happen very often, to be honest
Speaker 3: with you. I mean, obviously, you know you've seen partnerships
Speaker 3: and sponsorships within radio shows that do last a long time.
Speaker 3: But you know, if Thornton's came to me after two
Speaker 3: years and said, hey, we're gonna you know, we're gonna
Speaker 3: mix it up and do something different, maybe we'll revisit
Speaker 3: it in the next quarter or the next year, like
Speaker 3: that would have made total sense. But they have been
Speaker 3: loyal and I can't tell you, guys how much I
Speaker 3: appreciate Thornton, So I never get tired of people, you know,
Speaker 3: bringing or making the you know, references to Thornton's and
Speaker 3: you know, yeah, if there's a reason that, you know,
Speaker 3: you feel like at times I overdo my love for Thornton's.
Speaker 3: This is why, because they've been loyal to me, and
Speaker 3: they've been loyal to the station in the show, and
Speaker 3: I really do appreciate that. All right, So you want
Speaker 3: some random impressive stats about Louisville football, I got you
Speaker 3: courtesy of Kelly Dickey, the U of L statistical guru.
Speaker 3: Louisville has extended with their victory and their three and
Speaker 3: out first possession on defense, they've extended streak that I
Speaker 3: think is really impressive. Louisville, for twenty straight games has
Speaker 3: held their opponents scoreless on the first possession. That's a
Speaker 3: three and out, not a field goal, no touchdown. Twenty
Speaker 3: straight games. When your defense takes the field, that's impressive. Now, again,
Speaker 3: some of that even goes back to the previous regime,
Speaker 3: right and Louisville, of course did have a really good defense.
Speaker 3: Some guys playing on Sundays now from that defense is
Speaker 3: Sirrabdulah YAYI diabi, So I just I mean that again,
Speaker 3: Louisville's defense last year was the strength of this team.
Speaker 3: It didn't seem like it at times. And I think
Speaker 3: because of Brom and all we know about Brom and
Speaker 3: his mind offensively and his calling card being lighting up
Speaker 3: a scoreboard. I think the defense was really impressive last year,
Speaker 3: and when it was in, the offense wasn't great. I
Speaker 3: almost feel like some fans, myself included, didn't give the
Speaker 3: defense its fair shake. Now they fell apart late last year,
Speaker 3: there's no way around that. I think they got a
Speaker 3: little too gassed. I think they failed to make some adjustments.
Speaker 3: I think that's why you heard Ron Englishould be pretty
Speaker 3: outspoken in fall camp about how he thinks last year
Speaker 3: some of the defensive issues were on coaching and maybe
Speaker 3: lack of adjustments at the right time. Schematically, So never
Speaker 3: take your defense for granted, because if your offense is
Speaker 3: struggling to put points on the board for you know,
Speaker 3: a half or three straight possessions and yet your defense
Speaker 3: has only given up three in that amount of time,
Speaker 3: your defense is doing the damn thing. And last year, Man,
Speaker 3: there were a lot of games like that. For Louisville,
Speaker 3: where the offense really could not click, at least not consistently,
Speaker 3: and the defense continued to give the offense opportunities to
Speaker 3: to win the game. So shout out to the Louisville defense.
Speaker 3: And again depth is seemingly in a really good place.
Speaker 3: I hesitate to really just you know, overdo it. And
Speaker 3: maybe it wouldn't be overdoing it, but like I could,
Speaker 3: I could rave about this defense for the whole show.
Speaker 3: I mean, that wouldn't be good radio, right, I don't
Speaker 3: think anybody would.
Speaker 1: Want want that.
Speaker 3: But if I did it, I would also find my
Speaker 3: self thinking, wait a second, Nick pumped the brakes here, brother,
Speaker 3: because they played Austin p and Jacksonville State. And I
Speaker 3: find myself having to remind my having to remind myself
Speaker 3: that here and there, because I I mean, looking at
Speaker 3: who they play doesn't change what I think this team
Speaker 3: can be. I just feel so left out, Like because
Speaker 3: we haven't played we got a bye week now and
Speaker 3: we actually haven't played a real game yet doesn't mean
Speaker 3: we're not good. Heck, we may. We may end up
Speaker 3: learning that this Louisville team is better than we thought
Speaker 3: they'd be. But it's just impossible to know at this point,
Speaker 3: and usually by the time you get to mid September,
Speaker 3: you know something. And right now again I feel pretty good.
Speaker 3: But we haven't really learned anything about this team just yet,
Speaker 3: and we won't until September twenty first, which again that's
Speaker 3: I mean, that's four weeks into the season if you
Speaker 3: count week zero. All right, it is coffee and company.
Speaker 3: Feel about Thornon's herero On Sports Talk seven to ninety.
Speaker 3: Appreciate you guys hanging out with us. Also want to
Speaker 3: let you know how much I appreciate the Jefferson Animal
Speaker 3: Hospital because if you have a pet, I'm sure you
Speaker 3: rarely ever think I mean, by the way, pet human.
Speaker 3: If you're a parent, like you don't nobody thinks about
Speaker 3: emergencies happening, right because you know that was I mean,
Speaker 3: if you're just sitting around expecting in any moment for
Speaker 3: an emergency to happen, like that's that's obviously not ideal, right,
Speaker 3: but you should know if emergencies do happen that you
Speaker 3: have a plan. You should have a plan, and I'm
Speaker 3: telling you what your plan should be, and that is
Speaker 3: to reach out to the Jefferson Animal Hospital if there's ever,
Speaker 3: anything that happens with you doesn't even have to be
Speaker 3: an emergency. Just know that they're there for you in
Speaker 3: case of an emergency because they've been open year round,
Speaker 3: twenty four hours a day since night. I mean we're
Speaker 3: talking since nineteen nineteen eighty, forty four years. Jefferson Animal
Speaker 3: Hospital and Regional Emergency Center has been serving the Louisville
Speaker 3: community since nineteen eighty. They've been open twenty four hours
Speaker 3: a day, that includes holidays, weekends, Christmas. They got a
Speaker 3: doctor on site that can help you in the if
Speaker 3: you're in need of their services due to an emergence.
Speaker 3: Any day, any night, any ship. Jeffson Animal Hospitals dedicated
Speaker 3: doctors and staff have you and your pets covered in
Speaker 3: case of an emergency. But again, as I mentioned, does
Speaker 3: not have to be an emergency. You can schedule an
Speaker 3: appointment for any time, any day, any night, or walk
Speaker 3: right in. They save lives every day and they're very
Speaker 3: proud of the great work that they do. They're opening
Speaker 3: again twenty four hours. That's not something you see very
Speaker 3: often when it comes to services like an animal hospital.
Speaker 3: So they're on the outer loop. They've been there for
Speaker 3: a long time. I'm sure you've seen their location, and
Speaker 3: if you want to give them a call, you can
Speaker 3: do it five oh two nine hundred Pets again five
Speaker 3: oh two nine hundred pets, or you can visit Jefferson
Speaker 3: Beets dot com. All right, real quick before we get
Speaker 3: to our next break. Last week, I had one of
Speaker 3: those moments, and we did have somebody call in, and
Speaker 3: you know, maybe they were just having fun with the show,
Speaker 3: or maybe they were being serious. But occasionally I'll say
Speaker 3: something on the air and then I'll think, like, man,
Speaker 3: if somebody just tuned in at that time, that would
Speaker 3: have not been ideal. That would not be great for
Speaker 3: that to be the first experience they have here with
Speaker 3: us on Coffee and Company. And it was when I
Speaker 3: I was going back and forth about but hoole Tech
Speaker 3: and butt crack state. I got it right, didn't I?
Speaker 3: You did get it right, And I said, you know,
Speaker 3: I should have just stuck with one. And then I
Speaker 3: kept mixing it up and I said, I got greedy
Speaker 3: with the butt stuff, and I was thinking, oh, somebody
Speaker 3: tuned in at that time.
Speaker 1: It's bad.
Speaker 3: I think I think Hugh Freeze may have have me
Speaker 3: beat here. So Hugh Freeze Auburn head coach. He was
Speaker 3: on a radio show in Alabama and they're playing New Mexico,
Speaker 3: who sucks out loud this weekend. And by the way,
Speaker 3: they need to win bad. They're coming off a loss
Speaker 3: to Cal meaning Auburn is imagine tuning in when Hugh Freeze.
Speaker 3: You don't know what he was asked, but he was
Speaker 3: asked about what the playbook's going to look like, what
Speaker 3: their offensive strategy is going to be, because you know,
Speaker 3: you don't want to show a lot in that game,
Speaker 3: right Jeff Brown didn't show a whole lot in the
Speaker 3: games against Jacksonville State and knowledge to be because you
Speaker 3: don't want to give your opponents game film of what
Speaker 3: you're really going to do in games that matter. So
Speaker 3: this is that game for Auburn. So he was asked
Speaker 3: that question. But imagine you didn't hear it and you
Speaker 3: just tuned into whatever this Alabama station was and you
Speaker 3: heard Hugh free say these words. I can promise you
Speaker 3: the package will not be big. It's tough, tough, I
Speaker 3: can promise you. Like again, context always matters, but sometimes
Speaker 3: the funniest things ever are because things are taken out
Speaker 3: of context. But yeah, just like I can promise you
Speaker 3: the package will not be big. No man ever wants
Speaker 3: to utter that and not have the context added because
Speaker 3: a lot of people, you know, perverts, I suppose myself included.
Speaker 3: I don't think I'm a pervert, but yeah, like when
Speaker 3: I just and again, I only see this because unnecessary roughness.
Speaker 3: Barstool Sports is college football podcast. You know they're having
Speaker 3: fun with that, right. I can promise you the package
Speaker 3: will not be big. He means, he means the he
Speaker 3: means the playbook guys, children grow up, grow up, Thank you, John,
Speaker 3: tell them to grow up. All right, we'll be right back.
Speaker 3: We're going to grow up during this break and be
Speaker 3: more mature and professional the rest of the way. It's
Speaker 3: coffee and company. I feel about Thorton's right here. On
Speaker 3: Sports Talk seven ninety, let's talk a little more about
Speaker 3: the Tyreek Hill arrest video that has been public as
Speaker 3: of yesterday afternoon, yesterday evening. I'm notrely true. I saw
Speaker 3: it last night, but I don't know when it came out.
Speaker 3: But we now have the police report that that has
Speaker 3: been you know that that was written up on Sunday
Speaker 3: as he was apprehended and cited for speeding before playing
Speaker 3: in an NFL game. The arrest slip says he was
Speaker 3: speeding at an a visual estimation of sixty miles per hour.
Speaker 3: Who started saying it was one hundred miles an hour.
Speaker 3: I think it was one of the cops that that was.
Speaker 3: That was you could hear on bodycm throwing out that,
Speaker 3: and they didn't even they didn't even clock him, because
Speaker 3: we should rely on visual estimation and not you know,
Speaker 3: the tools that are out there to you know, give
Speaker 3: us an actual speed.
Speaker 2: So again, i'll that's just like whenever they exaggerated Scheffler
Speaker 2: and dragging the police.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And you know, unfortunately these incidents that do become national
Speaker 3: stories and there's clear evidence of officers just telling us
Speaker 3: something and we're supposed to believe it because they're visually
Speaker 3: Like you know, when you have tools that can prove
Speaker 3: and be transparent what you're doing and you don't use them,
Speaker 3: good luck getting people to just assume you're going to
Speaker 3: be honest, right, I mean, nobody comes on when Scheffler
Speaker 3: allegedly dragged a person, which he didn't do at all.
Speaker 3: And again I thought Roman said it best if they
Speaker 3: had anything and if they believed that he actually dragged
Speaker 3: that officer, you'd think they'd be dropping charge as hell. No,
Speaker 3: and even if he was speeding, it's a simple traffic stop.
Speaker 3: So like for those out there claiming he was reckless
Speaker 3: driving like going one hundred, I don't know where one
Speaker 3: hundred miles an hour came from, but that's what people
Speaker 3: were running with initially, and like that just wasn't true.
Speaker 3: Even the write up doesn't alledge of that by the
Speaker 3: officers who you know, in my opinion, let their emotions
Speaker 3: get in the way of them doing their job, which
Speaker 3: is the same thing that happened with that guy whose
Speaker 3: name I've already forgotten, but you know, pants got.
Speaker 1: Ripped, I forgot. I wanted to add some of those
Speaker 1: to our soundboard.
Speaker 3: Ye, and it's gracious anyways, real quick, no time left
Speaker 3: here in the three o'clock hour, But I do want
Speaker 3: to get to this text because it's a good one.
Speaker 3: And I did a little digging as best I could
Speaker 3: during the break. But somebody on the text line, the
Speaker 3: Llen and Federal Credit Union text line, has asked, have
Speaker 3: there been any transfers that Louisville lost in the portal
Speaker 3: that so far this year are really performing to where
Speaker 3: we feel like we miss them. And I'm paraphrasing, but
Speaker 3: I think that was initially what the question was. And
Speaker 3: don't I don't think there's anybody out there that I
Speaker 3: have seen that is putting up big numbers that you're like, man,
Speaker 3: I wish we would have had this guy. The only
Speaker 3: one I can think of, and I think it's worth
Speaker 3: mentioning is Kevin Coleman, the receiver who was with Dionnet
Speaker 3: Jackson State, came to Louisville last year and did make
Speaker 3: some plays. I mean, he was somebody that you know,
Speaker 3: I thought, you know again, He's another example kind of
Speaker 3: like for being honest, kind of like Amari Huggins Bruce
Speaker 3: Nobody wanted to see him leave. He's a fine player,
Speaker 3: but like all things considered, you could understand why they
Speaker 3: left last year. Kevin Coleman for Louisville and pull up
Speaker 3: his numbers here last year get twenty six catches for
Speaker 3: three hundred and sixty two yards and two touchdowns, and
Speaker 3: I remember both those touchdowns thinking, hey, we should target
Speaker 3: that gap more. He looks pretty good and he was
Speaker 3: really good by the way for Dion at Jackson State,
Speaker 3: and I think he was one of I could be
Speaker 3: wrong here. I think he's one of the few guys
Speaker 3: that was highly recruited but decided to go FCS to
Speaker 3: Jackson State to play for Dion so at Mississippi State,
Speaker 3: which is where he is at now in the SEC,
Speaker 3: and they stink out loud, but he had He's had
Speaker 3: nine catches for one hundred and ninety one yards and
Speaker 3: two touchdowns, so he's already yeah, he's already matched what
Speaker 3: he did touchdown wise in two games for Mississippi State.
Speaker 3: So again that could be Again. Missippy's, by the way, sucks.
Speaker 3: I know they're in the SEC, but like he may
Speaker 3: be getting those opportunities in those reps to perform because
Speaker 3: they're they're roster's not as good as Louisvilles and that,
Speaker 3: you know, that might shock some people because they're Mississippi
Speaker 3: State in the SEC, but like, let's be real, they're
Speaker 3: they're terrible. They lost to Arizona State, who last I checked,
Speaker 3: was picked to finish dead last in the in the
Speaker 3: PAC twelve. I'm sorry, the Big twelve. All right, quick break,
Speaker 3: we'll come back on the other side. Two more hours left,
Speaker 3: a lot more to get into, including I've got to
Speaker 3: let you guys here an SEC analyst who actually does
Speaker 3: radio down in Louisiana. He had an epic rant about
Speaker 3: Kentucky football and their fans accepting Mark Stoops's mediocrity, and
Speaker 3: I thought it was It was really well done and funny,
Speaker 3: by the way, So I want you guys to hear that. Also,
Speaker 3: five thirty an hour and a half, we're giving away
Speaker 3: two tickets to see Brooks and done, so stick with us.
Speaker 3: Two more hours to go right here. Coffee and Company
Speaker 3: feel about Thornton's on Sports Talk seven ninety
