Get ready for New Year, Get ready for l s U.
Baylor in the texass Bowl. I was talking to.
Speaker 4: The Kinders Texass Bowl. What's the Kinder comedy.
Speaker 1: That's the thing that has the books that you read, right,
Surprise Dolls. Yeah, Kindle, that's it, Kindle Roy. Yeah, Disruption Bowl.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, we we we need good brand synergy. We
need a multi level marketing scheme that's going to attack
on every vector where our customers are going to be at.
I want to hit socials hard with engaging innovative content. Views.
Speaker 4: Guys, we need views.
Speaker 1: I love Kendle really so much.
Speaker 3: Uh, what a show, what a show, great show. I
was talking about a man though yesterday he was over
and he was saying that when they start talking about
Saints or about LSU Baylor, that everybody just shouts him down,
like not wanting to hear about it. And I was
kind of laughing something like, it's not too dissimilar when
we talk about the Saints right now and and again
and kind of LSU Baylor a bit. It's crazy. But
the the transfer portal and all the roster news has
kind of replaced Bowl games as being the main news
stories during uh, during this time of year.
Speaker 4: And even like so the portal stuff is kind of weird.
Speaker 5: So if like for off Campus two years ago, if
there was a big portal edition, like we certainly like
we were covering it and we're kind of going, you know,
day by day, we'd go give a list of like
who went into the portal or who signed wherever. But
now it's almost like it's every single day, and if
you're not just one team specific, it's like, I don't
spend a whole lot of time on it, Like we'll
let the dust settle, and once it does settles, like
we'll give you a recap of where, you know, kind
of some heavy hitters went. But it's like the movement
happened so often, and if you're not just covering one
team and honing in on one team, it's like if
we sat there and we did that, like it would
take a bulk of the show up, And I'll be
real honest with you, I'd rather just talk ball the national.
Speaker 3: The national coverage of fun. Like, if you're doing a
show that isn't supposed to be just single team, it's
mainly just gonna be quarterbacks, there will be every now
and then there'll be a guy that breaks through that's
bigger than a quarterback, who is the quarterback that just signed.
Oh man, where I can't. I can't, I can't Okay,
I actually can't remember. I saw it this morning. I
was like, that's vaguely interesting.
Speaker 4: Mensa got two years eight million?
Speaker 3: Uh uh oh what what what? I thought? It was
like one and a half.
Speaker 4: I did you see that before?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 4: It was four year eight million? Whoa?
Speaker 3: Okay, you know, hey, you're.
Speaker 1: Probably thinking of a Fernando Mendoza to Indiana, Indiana. You
know we're from Calada, Indiana. It was kind of the
big one over the weekend.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, swich again is worth a blurb? And then
moving on.
Speaker 4: For two years eight million?
Speaker 3: I mean, no wonder two Lane can't compete. They probably
could have come up with a million, probably a million
and a half. I mean the North's sellers got what
two seven?
Speaker 4: Yeah for one.
Speaker 3: Year, and Minsa got four.
Speaker 4: Tube. Boy, you better you'll better start saving schools.
Speaker 3: You'll better start saving for these quarterbacks. Better know, you
better learn today. You better learn what the NFL has
been knowing. It's going to take up a lot of
your resources, and you better learn how to team build
around it.
Speaker 1: Hey, is Zach Calzada's back in the SEC?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 4: I know he's going to Kentucky.
Speaker 3: Yeah, a few weeks ago, battle it out, they broke
a few weeks ago. What a what a legendary journey
Calzada has had underappreciated as a transfer portal all star.
Speaker 5: I mean started a and M. It just feels like
Stoop's got it wrong again.
Speaker 3: Then to Auburn maybe, yeah, then somewhere else before Kentucky.
Speaker 4: Yelled TJ. Finley's where is it school? Oh yeah, that's
right back to the green Wave.
Speaker 3: Let's go.
Speaker 4: It wasn't high school.
Speaker 3: Do you think Finley starts?
Speaker 1: Yes, I mean I would.
Speaker 3: Well, who's not a big recruit.
Speaker 1: Remember mens Ty Thompson is there as well. He was
used to be at Oregon a long time.
Speaker 3: He was the big addition in the off season. They
thought he was gonna start, but then Mensa beat him out.
Speaker 1: Yeah no, I mean Todd Thompson could do it. I
mean it's not like he's probably.
Speaker 4: He's got to be in the portal. Yeah, okay, he played.
Speaker 5: Now he played in the ball game, but he told
him beforehand that he was going in the port Maybe TJ.
Speaker 3: Finley will have uh And he started at every place,
So you have an LSU Jersey, Auburn Jersey, Texas, Texas State,
Texas State Jersey, Western Kentucky Jersey and now at two
lane Jersey.
Speaker 4: He's got He's got the rainbow.
Speaker 3: That's a especially because you start everyone. That's a pretty
impressive Jersey room. You know, like Western Kentucky may be
a bit of a step down, but everywhere else and
prettydamn good, especially in this David quarterbacks like everywhere else.
That's that's really good.
Speaker 6: They beat Baylor, he beat baller at Texas State. I
was like, last couple of years ago.
Speaker 3: Uh, Jake, what happened to what happened to your what
happened to?
Speaker 4: Everdon draw little?
Speaker 3: Let's go Pickford saving the saving the point.
Speaker 4: Saving the point.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean hill Man City to one goal. He
held Chelsea to none, Arsenal to none.
Speaker 6: I hate pick for him. It's gonna be honest. Imagine
if you had he really he's really annoying. He every
every time something happens, he just yells immediately.
Speaker 3: Ee I've ever watched.
Speaker 4: They don't always That's the.
Speaker 3: Best part about being a goalie.
Speaker 5: There's not a position I played like you have to like,
there's not a position in sports where you can get
mad about doing your job, right.
Speaker 3: Come on, you made me say it freaking play some
defense like it's like the only foe. Like wait, I
actually have to do my job? Guys, what is going
on here?
Speaker 4: Stop it?
Speaker 1: I was told I didn't have to do anything.
Speaker 3: Yeah, ideally the balls you never gets to me. You
guys didn't suck so much? Lock it mark that man? Yep,
what are we doing?
Speaker 4: I'm with you, genius goalie's got it figured out. Yep,
I agree.
Speaker 3: I don't like Pickford because he's the most stereotypical looking
Englishman I've ever seen.
Speaker 4: He looks like he is a short king short. I
thought he was long for for no, for a goalie.
Speaker 3: He is told he like six thirty.
Speaker 4: He is not nine. I thought he'd be like six
five or sixty six. No, he's not. He is six one. Wow,
that's crazy. It's a lot of range to cover. Thank
god they got.
Speaker 5: He's saved more penalties issuear than anybody in the Premier League.
Speaker 4: Yes, number one, what are we doing?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 6: I know, No, No, he's good. I just hate him.
That's like every keeper.
Speaker 5: I yells, front line, what match you most exciting for
for Boxing Day?
Speaker 3: That doesn't have ever done that.
Speaker 6: M h to look at the the table here the schedule,

Speaker 4: Okay, who played for Newcastle? Then?
Speaker 6: I mean so there's Alan Shearer was a foward round
and Carrol Peter Beardsley, Mala.
Speaker 4: Andy Cole.

off the Bench with Hester and t Bob.
Speaker 3: We're gome back to TV right now. It is my
pleasure to be joined by one of my favorite people
on this earth, a man who my wife finds to
be devilishly attractive, and that is the Blue Eyed Chef himself,
Michael Johnson. Chef Johnson, what's.
Speaker 2: Going Ready to stanlys and taste buds and leave this
segment hungry. This is Monkey's with executive Chef Michael Johnson.
Speaker 3: Chef, what's going on?
Speaker 4: Brother?
Speaker 7: How you guys? I'm good man?
Speaker 3: Uh doing well?
Speaker 4: How's uh?
Speaker 3: How's Arkansas? It is?
Speaker 7: Uh? Well? I just the same way I remembered it. Brother, Yeah,
it's brown right now. And now if I had a
if I had a gun or a bow with me,
I maybe be a little bit more excited, but unfortunately
I'm just the passing through.
Speaker 3: Uh well, speaking of brown, thank you for all the
turkey advice. Chef, get better and better came out pretty
good man turkey gumbo rolling as well. You all of
your tips, so you continuously let me bug you with hashtag.
Speaker 4: We'll go ahead.
Speaker 7: What do you think about the coconut oil?
Speaker 3: I thought it was great. I thought it was great.
Now I ended up just because I don't know how
I got here. I think I ended up doing the
first covering with like a butter garlic herb mix and
they did coconut oil throughout the rest of it. Yeah,
because my wife's a beautiful traditionalist.
Speaker 4: And she kind of like, I don't know, she wasn't
fully trusting me.
Speaker 3: Yea go full coconut oil. But no, I thought it
was fantastic, And Chef, I got a new knife, which
is great now. I think it's one that might be
big gimmicky to you. It's not maybe like the best quality,
but it's like one of those big Viking type knives,
and I had so much fun cooking with great weight
to it. I mean it comes with a full leather
holester that I put on my belt like I could do.
It looks like something that if I was in Gangs
of New York, one of the weapons that I would
that I would bring when they're going through the weapons
what they you know, like, you.
Speaker 7: Know, guns and Bob the Butcher.
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, exactly Bob the Butcher. But yeah, you're not,
I know, but you're not. You're not good enough to.
Speaker 3: Be what me and Daniel day Lewis abot the masters
of our craft are you talking about? I'm basically the
Daniel day Lewis of mid market local morning sports.
Speaker 4: Better happier eye with a knife.
Speaker 3: Dead oh man has tag munchies, Chef. What was on
your Christmas spread?
Speaker 7: Say that again?
Speaker 3: What was on your Christmas spread?
Speaker 7: And we left early this morning at Life And I'm
not a I'm not a Christmas same guy, but I
had one available, Tobie, and so we had I made
some red beans and the kids, you know, we we
were gonna make master potatoes, but Dad forgot to go
to the store.
Speaker 3: It is it is shocking to me how many times
you end up going to the store of the holidays.
You know, you always you always think you have everything,
and then you always remember one and you end up
making three or four trips.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I had three. I had three Yukon gold potatoes
looking up at me out of the drawer, and I
was like, Yeah, that's not gonna work.
Speaker 3: H hashtag munchies. I'm officially burnt out on holiday food.
What should my reset meal b?
Speaker 7: You know, like I I I don't know, you know,
like a diet exactly like light right it's got Yeah, well,
it's difficult for me to associate right now because I
just came off of a fast for like twenty one days.
So I'm I'm kind of going the other direction. I'm
introducing you know, heavier foods back into my diet. But
you know, the one thing about the one thing about
the holidays is lots of fats, lots of proteins. So
I don't think there's anything wrong with backing off some
of that stuff and going to a heavier fruit and
vegetable diet for a little while in order to you know,
clean some of that stuff out, because that stuff, you know,
even even even and protein's good if you're active, if
you're being active, but you know if you're not, it
can do the same thing.
Speaker 5: What's wait, what to do if you're not active? If
you're ingesting all this protein, well, I mean.
Speaker 7: It's you know, like it goes to waste and you know,
like it's like it may not turn into fat. I
think that what doctor has told me is that some
of it can oxidize in your body as well. And
and you know, like there's undigested foods and in your
uh digestive tract as well. You know that. You know
that Elvis Presley when he died, had like ninety five
pounds of undigested ground beef. And it's not it's just
like what you know, like beat some vegetables.
Speaker 4: With that is one hundred percent. How t Bob's leaving us? Uh,
no doubt.
Speaker 3: I'm not going one hundred. But it's it's it's a
higher percentage. It's a higher percentage that I would like. Yeah,
hashtag munchies. Forget about black eyed peas. What's a good
underrated New Year's food?
Speaker 7: M You know, I don't know, I don't I don't
get in as much to the these you know, like
traditional foods at traditional times because you know, like I
just like food and and I don't know, I mean,
I'm I don't really have one on the top of
my mind to say, like I've I've always I've heard
and have done myself a couple of times, like corn
beef and corn beef and cabbage. And I love corn
beef and cabbage, so you know, I'm I'm game for it,
But I don't know, you know, without without knowing more
about who the person is. I do love a good
corn beef and after you know, like after you've eating
the whole rose or eat and you have some last
you can splice it up and make a nice damage
with it. Now, I like that too.
Speaker 4: What do they have?
Speaker 3: We are simpotico on the sandwich front? What what is it?
When you I know, I know there's like cabbage roll ups,
But I feel like maybe my my my brother in
law did a bit of a like a servant like
it's it's kind of like a sausage wrapped in like
a grape leaf.
Speaker 4: Oh, you know there stuff I don't know that's delicious.
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I forget what it's called. Uh, yeah, I don't
know stuff.
Speaker 4: Drapes please hashtag munchies.
Speaker 3: And I know, I know you're not a big gadget guy,
but Ryan wants to know a kitchen gadget that's worth
giving as a Christmas gift that most cooks don't have.
Speaker 7: Most cooks don't have.
Speaker 4: Yeah, is there any gadget that makes the that makes
chef's kitchen? You know?
Speaker 7: I mean there's like a robocood. A lot of people
don't have these homes at home, but I do. I
have Gosh, I mean, gadget that I have at my
house that you'd be surprised how many people don't have.
Is a biotherm or a temperature probe, you know, like
I really okay, So here's one that I really love.
It is a silicone corded probe that tells you when
the temperature of the internal food gets to the temperature
that you want it to. So, in other words, you're
cooking your turkey on Thanksgiving Day and you don't want
it to go over one hundred and sixty one degrees
because you're gonna have four or five degrees of over cooking.
So you set the probe to say, to alert you
at one hundred and sixty one degrees. So when the
meat at the internal temperature of the meat reaches that,
it alarms and tells you that, you know, to go
pull it out, and it's game changer, you know. Like
people will always talk about how long do I cook
this for? And they hate the smart elect response of
you cook it until it's done. Yeah, you know, but
that's the reality of it. On how much heat you're applying,
depending depending on how low or hotter or you know,
there's a lot of factors the factor into it. So
the reality of it until it's done.
Speaker 4: And and.
Speaker 7: I think that pro allows you to you know, be
more more more methodical, more on spot with you know,
what you're trying to accomplish. And some people would say
that that's uh, you know, remedial, but extraordinarily accurate. And
I'm not ever going to have a dry turkey.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and and and so you're you're talking about something
that's wireless, like a like a meter or something that
that is connecting with your phone, you can you can
get it.
Speaker 7: Yeah, there's there's lots of different versions out of there
of them out there, there's Bluetooth versions and whatnot. So yeah,
that they're there. I I simply have a corded one
at my house. It's made silicon because I hang in
on the hanging on the hood of the of the
oven and and you know, butt from from the other room.
Speaker 3: But how's it?
Speaker 4: How's it get how's it get out the how's the
cord get out the oven?
Speaker 7: You have to run out of the oven for sure, Yeah.
Speaker 4: Oh okay, but it still closes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, wow.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 7: It's probably a six foot cord on the on the
probe right, And the silicone is is he he you
know it's it tolerates up to like five hundred degrees
before it starts getting weird, so that you can get
them without the silicon. You can get them with They're
like braided metal. But they tend to kink a little bit.
Speaker 6: Yeah it it might.
Speaker 7: It has a tendency to break the copper wire inside,
and so the stilic cord helps maintain straightness.
Speaker 3: Good know, because like I I hate this. Uh, I
find myself the older I get and I just want
to reject a lot of these digital things. Like I
got the Merder and it's great, but it kind of
feels like a hassle sometimes like sinking out right on
your phone blah blah blah. Give me a great instant
read thermometer or what you're sounding like? Just an analogue
option there. I I'm sure if you're talking right now, Chef,
I think you're a friend.
Speaker 4: Hashtag munchies. M chef, do you ever make your own butter?
And if so? Oh do we do? We do? We
lose him?
Speaker 5: Okay, he's in Arkansas, probably in the hills there somewhere
not great cell service.
Speaker 3: Uh okay, yeah, we'll just call.
Speaker 4: We'll just tell him by when we get him back,
and then we love him.
Speaker 3: Maybe, Chef, what's some man?

Speaker 2: Welcome back to the best morning sports show around sort of.
It's off the Bench with Hester and t bop.
Speaker 3: Alright, what's happening y'all? Welcome back to OTV and right
now it's time for one of my least favorite things,
a Data NFL Story of the Day Day.
Speaker 2: It's time for Data's NFL Story of the Day day,
your daily dose of NFL news from Taylor Sharp.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, Bill Belichick is not going to be a
head coach in the NFL next season, but a Super
Bowl winning coach.
Speaker 4: Just might be.
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll says he wants to come back to coaching,
and especially he is interested in the Chicago Bears head
coaching position. I no word yet on if the Bears
are going to reach out to him and co for
the vacant head coaching position. He's seventy three years old,
but I mean, look, he had a fourteen year run
in Seattle where he was wildly successful. Again, he won
a Super Bowl. He played for another Super Bowl on
the infamous pass on the one yard line that was
picked off by Malcolm Butler to lose that game. But
Pete Carroll interested in the head coaching spot. Should the
Bears be interested in him?
Speaker 4: I think so.
Speaker 3: Actually, I don't know. Pete Carroll is seventy three but
does not strike me as seventy three? Was he?
Speaker 4: I mean he was still there when the Gino resurrection
happened or no, was that right after him?
Speaker 3: So I believe first year, first year, Yeah, that was
for sure our first year out Gino's resurrect.
Speaker 4: This is his first year out.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's what I thought.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, he was there for that. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I feel like he could probably be really good for
Caleb Williams. So his last year was twenty twenty three,
So yes, this is I feel like he's probably really
good for Caleb Williams. And I feel like even when
Seattle had issues, they never got awful. Everybody that plays
for him seems to love him. I don't know, man, Yeah,
it's this is a rare case where I feel like, yes,
he's old, but I don't think his age maybe speaks
to how he feels. So I would, I would, definitely.
I mean who else, Well, I don't know. I guess
like if Ben Johnson was going to go somewhere, Chicago
would probably be very tempting because they have a great defense,
young quarterback weapons like they're they're pretty attractive in a
lot of ways. So maybe Carol would to be the
first choice, but I would, I mean, you have to
interview him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I'm looking right now. I mean, look, he
was gone after the twenty twenty three season. He went
nine and eight and twenty twenty three, so it's not
like the wheels really fell off. And in fourteen years
as an NFL head coach, I mean he's had four
losing seasons.
Speaker 3: So so how many in Seattle though, right, because.
Speaker 1: That's what Seattle because so see I'm saying this.
Speaker 3: Brown's run was bad, right, and then he had to
go find his fortunes Brown, Yeah, yeah, and then he
had to find his fortunate twenty He was.
Speaker 1: Twenty seven and twenty one with the Patriots, and he
wasn't he wasn't awful with Seattle.
Speaker 4: He had.
Speaker 1: Two losing, three losing seasons, huh, and two were his
first two years. He went seven and nine, seven and nine,
twenty one.
Speaker 4: One.
Speaker 1: Yeah, in twenty twenty one he went seven and ten.
But back to back nine and eight seasons before years,
like something super consistent.
Speaker 4: Was he the head coach dur in Beast Quake or
was that Mike Holmgren still.
Speaker 1: For when they won the playoff game. Yes, yes, so
that was when I seven nine seasons, I believe.
Speaker 3: So even then a seven to nine season which he
won a playoff game. Yeah, prettymn good, Pete Carroller, Pretty
damn good.
Speaker 4: What was it mars Marshawn said, when you cross the
Goldine caremember?
Speaker 3: Uh Homer.
Speaker 1: So his first year in Seattle Amost twenty ten, his
first season twenty ten.
Speaker 3: I don't know those.
Speaker 1: Carrol's first year in Seattle.
Speaker 3: I do know where you're talking about.
Speaker 4: What are you talking about?
Speaker 1: The beast quake run?
Speaker 3: Maybe that was still longer than that.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Would you bet on Pete Carroll be in the next
coach to the Bears? No, well you could probably bet
it on the DraftKings. But even if you don't want to, well,
it's the most wonderful time of the year. Forget in

Speaker 5: I wonder if I want to know the odds to
become the next hey coach of the New Orleans Saints.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Aaron Glenn gotta be he is five to one,
but not the leader in the clubhouse. Oh wow?
Speaker 5: Uh so at three to one. Joe Brady at four
to one, Ben Johnson The Rizzler four to one, Aaron
Glenn five to one, Raves nine to one, Todd Monkin
twelve to one.
Speaker 4: Joe Brady, Yeah, how did Joe?
Speaker 3: I mean, I know Joe's done great up in Buffalo,
but like smoke there, no, no, it's not that crazy quarterback.
Speaker 5: I just haven't heard much stuff with There no real
weapons that anybody's really heard of unless you're Taitan do
a deep dive in fantasy and James Cook everybody I
want to about receiver though, Yeah, it's going to be
an offensive.
Speaker 4: Personality. I would think so, like I would be shocked.
Speaker 3: You remain correct about the most unattractive thing about Aaron
Glenn is just the fact that he's a defensive guy,
and you're getting.
Speaker 5: That he's also naggy, just like Dennis Allan. Well, so's
Dan Campbell and you love Dan Campbell. Yeah, he's an
offensive guy though, so he cancels at least one of those.
I thought Dan Campbell was special Teams its titan. Todd
Munkin is interesting to me here at twelve to one.
I think Todd Munkin's a hell of a football coach.
Georgia time's missing. Todd Munkin. Look what he's doing right
now with Baltimore. Yeah, he's been a head coach before
in college, you know, not professional ranks. But he steel
like he's a veteran coach who's been a head coach
at some level. He's an offensive guy, so it wouldn't
be like, you know, a guy who failed somewhere else
like Dennis Allen did in Oakland.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Todd Munkin to me, makes a lot of sense. If
I'm if I'm Mickey Lewis and I'm trying to hire
my guy. I'm turning on Spencer Rattler film and I'm
saying you're welcome. Okay, you want to play with this,
let's go, dude, come on down.
Speaker 4: No, I'm just kidding. That's not fair to Rattler.
Speaker 5: Cliff Kingsbury's twenty to one deon Sanders is thirty three
to one. I mean, Cliff Cliff, you said it, Jake.
Speaker 3: Cliff just feels like the guy who is a Sometimes
guys are coordinators, yeah right, and Cliff Kingsbury seems like
a very very good NFL coordinator.
Speaker 5: Maybe not NFL head coach. I agree, got some good
qualities to him, but not being a head coach.
Speaker 3: Taylor. Who's gonna be the Cowboys next head coach?
Speaker 1: Like next year? Yeah, I think it's probably Mike McCarthy. Honestly,
Jerry seemed really happy in the locker room after that
Tampa Bay win.
Speaker 3: Hell yeah, dude, congrats another year. Mcfarthy. You excited?
Speaker 4: I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't hate McCarthy. McCarthy's unquestionable things, but I mean
he's not their only issue.
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think it they think it matters.
Speaker 1: A new head coach isn't going to completely turn that around.
Speaker 4: See Bob, if you could pick the next Saints head coach.
Speaker 3: I am pretty indifferent, to be honest, dude. I think
they're getting dealt a really bad hand regard whoever it is.
So I feel very badly for whoever it is, and
that I think you got a real multi year uphill
battle with which to try to figure things out.
Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna go all in on this, Todd Munkin.
It's not about take I think I'm gonna go all in.
Speaker 5: I think that's gonna be the guy that I want
to be the next head coach.
Speaker 3: I mean, the weird part about Joe Brady being best
odds is just it feels like a like a big gamble,
Like I think they have to take a little bit
of a gamble. Yeah yeah, yeah, But but again to
your point, like, what's the difference scene a monkey and
a Brady or what's the difference between I.
Speaker 5: Think Todd's done it for longer. He's you know, he
was at OC in Tampa Bay before he was the
OC in Baltimore. He's there, No, exactly that, That's why.
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: I thought the monkey would almost be the more attractive
option than just rocketing up a Brady to the to
the front of the line. Yeah, but uh whatever, I
don't know that'd be cool.
Speaker 4: There's some Louisiana connection there. I guess.
Speaker 3: Joe remains a key part of twenty nineteen the greatest
year of all of our entire lives.
Speaker 4: I mean, it was great, but I still take O
seven when it like I was a part of the championship. God.
Speaker 5: Now two nineteen was great since I just got really
fat and crazy looking. But besides that, it was you
don't look related to that person, No, I.
Speaker 3: Was living in a more evolved lifestyle. You know, rejecting
societal norms. Taylor, who would you take his saints?
Speaker 4: The next head couch a deep breath.
Speaker 1: My favor I think they're a little bit away from competing.
If I want a safe coach that's going to right
the ship that I've seen him do it, I think
Mike Vrabel wouldn't be bad.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Raves would be exciting. There's great name recognition there.
I don't think Vrabel has any interest in being here.
Speaker 4: Has he said that?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 6: No, no no.
Speaker 1: But I mean you're just saying one guy out there
that I'm like, Hey, I know this guy can bring
in a good culture, turn the locker room around. I
think Rabel can do that.
Speaker 3: Jacob, you got an opinion.
Speaker 4: I would lean towards Ben Johnson. I don't think he'd
come here.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's the problem that I worry about too, But
but I would. I wouldn't be opposed to Mike Rabel either.
Speaker 4: Honestly, I think.
Speaker 5: Ben Johnson is going to be the guy more than
anybody in this cycle that is going to be able
to choose where he goes.
Speaker 4: And he's already said he's gonna be very choosy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I he was very happy yeah, which again, I
feel like the Bears is probably the play young quarterback,
good weapons should you should be able to make that work.
Speaker 5: You got Dj Moore, you got Roman Dunes. I know
you have Keenan Allen right now, but Keen is not
going to be their long term. You know he's playing well,
it's nothing gets him. You still, you know you've got
and Cole commit at tight end, got a really good
right tackle. Yeah, I mean, now you gotta is there
a more attractive NFL opening that's going to be open?
Speaker 3: And you say, oh, you got to make Cale Williams work. Well,
people thought that Jared Goff sucked. Oh yeah, I mean
you know we'd written that on all right. So when
you look at the Bats written off the Jets, Jets
are going to be open.
Speaker 5: Nobody wants that. No, no, no, Cleveland is probably going
to be open. Nobody wants that.
Speaker 4: Saints are about both those situations of Jacksonville is probably
going to be open.
Speaker 3: That's you know, Trevor revitalization potentially, But no, not really,
I don't think I want that Giants going to be open?
Speaker 6: Uh?
Speaker 3: Will you have a top draft picked the draft droom
quarterback that could be tempting, but it does feel like
a long road for them as well.
Speaker 5: And you know other jobs that I think are going
to be open, I see it being obviously the Saints
is open, So Saints, Bears, Giants, Jags.
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess it Bingals opens up, that would
be the most the.
Speaker 4: Bengals opens up.
Speaker 5: There's no doubt every person that's you know, up for
a head coaching job would pull their hamstring running to something.
Speaker 4: Mean, Bro, you tell me you're gonna hire me to
get Joe Burrow? Are you kidding me? Now?
Speaker 5: Jamar's contract situations up in the air. So is t
Higgins Okay in.
Speaker 3: This interest, this is what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna
pay him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, whatever he wants. The Hans is gone, but that's okay.
Speaker 3: We'll find someone else, all right. Well, when we get

Speaker 3: After eating crapes the first time, we're going to open
up a restaurant, and.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're going to based off your experience.
Speaker 3: It was our fantasy crapery. But the only reason is
I don't remember what the name was.
Speaker 4: Gonna be something I any time I think I crapes,
I just think of Taday and Nights. That's all pancakes.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 4: I just wanted in the bathroom to have a sign
that says, it smells like crape in here.
Speaker 3: That was my entire business. Bitch, what yeah, walk in
the bathroom it shells like crape in here. I get it.
Speaker 4: That's fun. So it wasn't really based off the crapes.
It was just based off.
Speaker 3: Look, I love savory crapes. Crapes are all right, crepe
stuffed like a bunch of mess and is it everything.
Speaker 6: I went to a restaurant and I think maybe Houston
where they had it was a crape crape place where
you can get all kinds of different crapes.
Speaker 1: They got a bit uh in France and Epcot right
outside like the little Routit two area, you got some
good creeps.
Speaker 3: Hashtag has been Did you see the ratings for the
Sea Championshi game masterly beat each of the four cultural
playoff games. I didn't see the sc Championship ratings, but
that's not surprising. You had Texas and Georgia playing each
other on a Saturday in which is no competition.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 3: That's also probably why championship games aren't gonna go away
aster bench. What's the best memory from Christmas when you
