1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:09,960
Speaker 1: Is The Matt Thomas Show with Ross leven o'clock takes down.

2
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:14,199
Speaker 2: Good morning, and welcome to a Monday edition of The

3
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,199
Matt Thomas Show with Ross. Coming to you today from

4
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,600
our nation's capital, Washington, d C. Where tonight the Rockets

5
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:25,679
will be taking on the Washington Wizards. I know that

6
00:00:25,719 --> 00:00:29,399
will not degenerate I think much interest, because frankly, I'm

7
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,000
trying to figure out who the hell the Wizards are.

8
00:00:31,039 --> 00:00:35,039
But that's a different issue for a different time, Rossie.

9
00:00:35,119 --> 00:00:39,159
We've got NFL Texans breaking news, don't Yes.

10
00:00:39,079 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 3: We do at ten am.

11
00:00:43,039 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: By the way, another.

12
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 3: One, I think so yeah, one more, I think so right.

13
00:00:55,159 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with you.

14
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:03,479
Speaker 2: On the Houston Texans have traded Titus Howard to the

15
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:13,480
Cleveland Browns four a fifth round pick. Then the Cleveland

16
00:01:13,519 --> 00:01:18,519
Browns signed Titus Howard to a three year extension worth

17
00:01:18,519 --> 00:01:21,439
I believe sixty three million dollars.

18
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 3: Yes, oh okay, that was a you got it? You

19
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:25,959
got the other one?

20
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,159
Speaker 1: Right? What's the other one?

21
00:01:29,239 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 3: The other piece of breaking is we had more.

22
00:01:32,879 --> 00:01:36,359
Speaker 1: Hit it other one? Sure? Why not? What? Yes?

23
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 3: Go ahead from I gotta like double check because this

24
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,799
this is twenty twenty six yeah, the Lions are trading

25
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,959
stand out running back David Montgomery to the Houston Texans.

26
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,719
Per Ian Rappaport, a fifth round pick goes back to

27
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:02,519
Detroit as Knuckles leaves a sonic, says Ian Rapaport, Jamiir

28
00:02:02,599 --> 00:02:06,400
Gibbs one one in your fantasy drafts, David Montgomery now

29
00:02:06,439 --> 00:02:07,760
a Houston Texan?

30
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,199
Speaker 1: Uh oh, what do you mean? Oh? In a good way?

31
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,199
You No, you would say, uh oh, like you know, yeah,

32
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:13,639
I don't.

33
00:02:13,479 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 3: Know who's gonna block for him, but he's gonna be

34
00:02:15,159 --> 00:02:15,919
a good running back.

35
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 2: Well, man, we got that. Wouldn't that second part come down?

36
00:02:24,719 --> 00:02:25,360
Just litterally minutes?

37
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 3: Literally two minutes ago, he tweeted this, ah suck at

38
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,280
a team.

39
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:35,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh well there goes to tell the truth today.

40
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 3: Oh okay, you're gonna say something about the Texas getting

41
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:41,280
a running back.

42
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, I gotta I gotta change that. So I'll be

43
00:02:44,199 --> 00:02:45,159
flipping that around.

44
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: A little bit coming. Huh hmm.

45
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 2: As someone that watched the Detroit Lyons last year a lot,

46
00:02:56,479 --> 00:02:58,680
because I had Jamiir Gibbs in my RB one in

47
00:02:58,719 --> 00:02:59,599
my fantasy league.

48
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, some idiot let him fall to you. I

49
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:03,439
can't remember who it.

50
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:04,759
Speaker 1: Was, Yeah, I don't remember who it was.

51
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 4: Jack.

52
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 2: So that's why Rossie, I'll always be a fantasy football

53
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,000
player because it does gives me a feel of what's

54
00:03:13,039 --> 00:03:17,080
going on around the NFL. So when Jamier Gibbs was

55
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,360
doing his thing, he was the most dominant running back

56
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:20,039
in the NFL.

57
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,759
Speaker 1: I mean, would pass, catch, would run.

58
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 2: You could give the ball to him thirty five times

59
00:03:26,159 --> 00:03:28,599
and he would get you, you know, five six yards

60
00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:32,120
to carry. He was multiple two hundred yard, multiple all purpose.

61
00:03:32,159 --> 00:03:36,840
Talking about Jamier Gibbs, when David Montgomery would come in,

62
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,719
I was almost like depressed because he was he wasn't

63
00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:41,560
getting any points.

64
00:03:42,919 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: He was really good, but he wasn't Jamier Gibbs good.

65
00:03:47,439 --> 00:03:50,919
Speaker 2: The question is going to be, Rossie, does David Montgomery

66
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:55,400
now spread his wings and say, Hey, I'm RB one,

67
00:03:56,159 --> 00:03:58,919
I'm a Houston Texan. I don't have to fight for

68
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,759
Jamiir Gibson playing time. I'm gonna be this electrifying running

69
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,159
back that people Detroit never saw because Jamiir Gibbs took

70
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:05,840
up all the space.

71
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

72
00:04:07,199 --> 00:04:10,319
Speaker 3: My initial reaction because this just went down is kind

73
00:04:10,319 --> 00:04:13,639
of similar to yours, is that I like David Montgomery.

74
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,680
David Montgomery is a good running back, but it's not

75
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,759
like he is some electric playmaker and almost feels very

76
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,800
Demko's Demico ryan Zy, Like David Montgomery's not gonna go

77
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,319
out there and bust you a bunch of fifty sixty

78
00:04:27,399 --> 00:04:30,000
yard runs, but he's gonna keep you on schedule on

79
00:04:30,079 --> 00:04:32,279
first down. And he's a good red zone running back.

80
00:04:33,199 --> 00:04:34,639
And I guess if you want to pair that with

81
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,920
Woody Marks as the third down guy, change of pace,

82
00:04:36,959 --> 00:04:39,519
pass catcher and stuff like that, it makes a lot

83
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:39,959
of sense.

84
00:04:43,879 --> 00:04:46,519
Speaker 1: All right, this who He's been a league a long time.

85
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:47,000
By the way.

86
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's twenty eight, which is I mean, you don't

87
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,560
want to call it, say, ancient for running back, but

88
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:53,680
it's older.

89
00:04:55,439 --> 00:04:58,439
Speaker 1: He has two one thousand yard rushing years to his credit.

90
00:04:58,600 --> 00:04:59,000
Mm hmm.

91
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 2: Wond a seventeen game schedule and won during a sixteen

92
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:04,959
game schedule.

93
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,319
Speaker 3: Yeah he play yeah, well well yeah, one when he

94
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,000
had played fifteen games and another when he played fourteen games.

95
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,000
So two thousand yard rushes I mean four four point

96
00:05:15,079 --> 00:05:16,800
one yards per carrying his career.

97
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: No, look, he's good. Oh no, am I getting less

98
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,319
excited about this now? Look, I don't want to do that.

99
00:05:26,319 --> 00:05:28,879
Speaker 2: I don't want to be RESPONSI with me either, but

100
00:05:28,959 --> 00:05:32,079
I'll say this, you're only treating him for a fifth

101
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:32,639
round pick.

102
00:05:32,759 --> 00:05:35,519
Speaker 1: Yes, it's not costing much of anything to have you much.

103
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 2: I don't know what its cap situation is because literally

104
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,639
this came down two bits ago. I don't have David

105
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,199
Montgomery's solar numbers contract.

106
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he was doing some decent money, I think,

107
00:05:47,399 --> 00:05:48,959
and they were just I mean, it's just going to

108
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:53,920
be Jamior Goods Arby one season in Detroit. Yeah, and

109
00:05:53,959 --> 00:05:55,680
who knows if they're going to try to restructure or

110
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:56,240
anything like that.

111
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: I mean, we just don't know. It's just how he

112
00:05:57,879 --> 00:05:58,040
was on.

113
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, he signed a two year, eighteen and a half

114
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:03,079
million dollar contract in October of twenty twenty four, so

115
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:07,439
he's making around. I'll bet he was an extension. So

116
00:06:07,439 --> 00:06:11,120
it's supposed to run a next next year basically average

117
00:06:11,879 --> 00:06:15,720
annual value of nine point nine million, So he making

118
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,879
nine yeah, nine million from David Montgomery's good.

119
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 2: That's good. It's not gonna break the bank. You automatically here,

120
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,279
Let's go to the glass half bull first. Okay, you

121
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,680
automatically got better. There's no way fans or butts about

122
00:06:27,759 --> 00:06:32,120
absolutely number two Joe Mixon or rip his contract and

123
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:32,959
hopefully his foot is.

124
00:06:32,959 --> 00:06:35,759
Speaker 3: Okay, hopefully he didn't shoot himself. Well, he can shoot

125
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,959
himsel anywhere wants to now, I don't care. Okay, that's

126
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,160
a by the way, Rappaport has got the the the

127
00:06:41,399 --> 00:06:46,800
uh trade wrong. It's a fourth rounder and Juice Scrugs

128
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,319
and they get back a well, I'm sorry, and a

129
00:06:50,319 --> 00:06:54,720
seventh rounder, so fifth round value. Even rapp Report said, So,

130
00:06:54,759 --> 00:06:56,920
I guess somebody texted the agent or somebody in the

131
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,160
Lions or Taxans texted him fifth round value. But to

132
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,800
fourth and a seventh? What how's that fifth round value?

133
00:07:03,519 --> 00:07:04,199
Speaker 1: I'm confused?

134
00:07:05,079 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 3: What update on terms? It's the Texans fourth rounder Juice

135
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,319
Scruggs and a seventh rounder for David Montgomery per sources.

136
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,600
How does that mean fifth round value?

137
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 5: Oh?

138
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 3: Seventh, that's coming back, not a giving up a fourth

139
00:07:20,759 --> 00:07:24,879
and the seventh. That's what That's what Ian Rapport says.

140
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,199
But then he says, that's fifth round value. How's a

141
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,639
fourth and seventh? Fifth round value? That's more than this

142
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,879
fourth plus round value? This is odd, So he words

143
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,879
it to say it's not as bad. So that would

144
00:07:34,879 --> 00:07:37,079
make sense that a seventh would be coming back, and

145
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,079
he got this wrong again?

146
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: Did he get this wrong twice?

147
00:07:42,079 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 2: You know, he's probably worried about whether he's even keep

148
00:07:44,079 --> 00:07:47,399
have a job at ESPN now that the NFL network

149
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,120
is in ESPN or cahoots together.

150
00:07:49,879 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 3: You want paid millions of dollars a shifter and millions

151
00:07:52,079 --> 00:07:54,079
of dollars in round port. You know, those guys have

152
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,600
always had kind of like a quiet rivalry. So you see,

153
00:07:56,639 --> 00:07:58,120
you see the tweet just made us now the woman

154
00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,959
in one. Yeah, but now it says they are giving

155
00:08:00,079 --> 00:08:03,040
trade David Montgomery giving up a fourth, a seventh and

156
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,439
Juice Scrugs. So that doesn't make any sense the fifth

157
00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:09,439
round value. Okay, let's go with giving up a fourth

158
00:08:09,439 --> 00:08:11,199
and a seventh and Jewice scrug Sorry, guys, I mean

159
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:17,800
iiams four to seven and Scrugs for Montgomery. Okay, I

160
00:08:17,839 --> 00:08:22,399
mean Juice Scrugs is less than just a guy. I'm sorry.

161
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,759
Speaker 2: Wow, so you had not that Jewice Scrugs is a

162
00:08:27,759 --> 00:08:30,240
guy that you're building around. But that's an early drought

163
00:08:30,319 --> 00:08:38,240
round drive pick up the Cassario era. That was offensive alignment. Yes,

164
00:08:39,639 --> 00:08:52,080
you're down to tackling dummies protecting David Montgomery At this point, I'm.

165
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,639
Speaker 1: Just gonna say this. Oh God, I don't want to

166
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,759
do this to you on Monday. Oh god, No, I

167
00:08:58,759 --> 00:09:00,559
don't want to. No, I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna. Okay, good,

168
00:09:00,919 --> 00:09:04,879
don't panic. You know what I'm thinking. What They're gonna

169
00:09:04,879 --> 00:09:11,519
take five offensive linemen in the draft? You can't this?

170
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,639
How do I how do I phrase this? Take your time?

171
00:09:14,799 --> 00:09:17,080
This is all happening in lifetime, Matt. We're not gonna

172
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:18,480
hold you to this, all right? Put it this way.

173
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,679
Speaker 3: How in the world do you completely reshape an offensive

174
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:28,279
line in one draft slash free agency? I mean, I

175
00:09:28,279 --> 00:09:31,679
guess you're gonna figure out what to do it. In

176
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:39,039
the last two years, Juwe Scruggs gone, mid Laramie Tunsil

177
00:09:39,799 --> 00:09:44,840
good but a pain in the ass, and then Titus Howard.

178
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,000
How does a team who had a below average offensive

179
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:56,000
line to begin with continue to ship bodies out. I'm

180
00:09:56,039 --> 00:09:58,559
going to imagine they have an idea of at least

181
00:09:58,600 --> 00:09:59,399
one person they.

182
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: Want to sign. Correct, So do they do it in

183
00:10:04,519 --> 00:10:07,840
free agency and the draft? I would have both? Yeah,

184
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,000
is there somebody out there that we don't know about?

185
00:10:10,799 --> 00:10:12,759
That's going to me to be the splashy higher.

186
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I mean ed Ingram wasn't on anybody's

187
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,799
radar last year. Trent Brown wasn't on anybody's radar last year.

188
00:10:18,799 --> 00:10:21,480
And those were two solid linemen for them. And they're

189
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,399
going to try to probably draft at least one guy,

190
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,200
maybe two, whether it be interior or tackle or whatever.

191
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: You need help everywhere at this point.

192
00:10:30,759 --> 00:10:36,799
Speaker 3: And yeah, this, as Aaron Wilson tweeted earlier, the Texans

193
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,519
are expected to utilize heavy combination of free agency and

194
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,879
draft for offensive line reinforcements. They're expected to make a

195
00:10:42,919 --> 00:10:46,799
large commitment trying to upgrade the position. So yeah, they

196
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,200
know that this offensive line as is as as comprised

197
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,919
at this moment, is just it's not good.

198
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 1: Yep.

199
00:10:54,039 --> 00:10:58,399
Speaker 2: As our friend Adam Wexer, our Texans Report Insider, our

200
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,279
Texans man, it goes and is not happy.

201
00:11:00,279 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: They has got into uh Torotown in a few years.

202
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty two first round pick, twenty twenty three, second

203
00:11:07,759 --> 00:11:11,159
round pick, twenty twenty four, second round pick, twenty twenty five,

204
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:16,480
second round pick. Four picks all pre sixty two or higher,

205
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,960
focusing on the offensive line. Only one of those players

206
00:11:21,279 --> 00:11:23,399
will still be on the off will be a Houston Texan.

207
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's for people that like, oh Dick Serio do

208
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:28,879
he never drafts offensive line, He never does anything. He

209
00:11:28,919 --> 00:11:31,600
never addresses the offensive line. He tries to address the

210
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:39,120
offensive line. He just swings and misses. Okay, which is

211
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,159
maybe worse. No, it's better. At least he's trying. He's

212
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,000
at least you tried. I mean, Nick's not dumb. He's

213
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,279
obviously got a game plan. He is now, he's just

214
00:11:49,159 --> 00:11:52,440
he's figuring out the pieces of the puzzle. First and foremost,

215
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,480
you're gonna release Mixing. So the money that's going to

216
00:11:54,519 --> 00:11:55,679
go that was going to mix And is going to

217
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,080
go to Montgomery. Now, okay, that kind of cancel each

218
00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,960
other out. I think, yes, give or take.

219
00:12:01,159 --> 00:12:05,879
Speaker 2: You do save money when you moved Titus Howard to Cleveland.

220
00:12:06,279 --> 00:12:08,159
So whatever money was on the books you're training for

221
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,039
a draft pixel there's gotta be significant cap savings on that.

222
00:12:14,039 --> 00:12:16,759
So whether that is trying to open up more money

223
00:12:16,759 --> 00:12:19,039
for Will Anderson to get a redone deal, or if

224
00:12:19,039 --> 00:12:21,840
it's more money to go take the Titus Howard money

225
00:12:22,039 --> 00:12:24,840
and then turn that into whoever you're gonna pay for

226
00:12:25,159 --> 00:12:31,120
replace Titus Howard Ooh, capology. That's a long, difficult subject

227
00:12:31,159 --> 00:12:33,440
to get to. I've failed in high school we had capology.

228
00:12:35,279 --> 00:12:36,639
Speaker 1: But I like it. That's a general manager.

229
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,159
Speaker 2: Do they manage their roster and they also have to

230
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:45,440
manage how much money they're going to pay? David Montgomery,

231
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:51,399
I'm happy? Am I over excited? You said twenty eight

232
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:51,840
years old?

233
00:12:51,919 --> 00:12:56,919
Speaker 1: ROSSI? Yes, not much wear and tearing Detroit the last

234
00:12:56,919 --> 00:12:57,440
couple of years.

235
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 3: It's true.

236
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: That's a good point, mere kids. I like that.

237
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, that's a good counterpoint. He doesn't

238
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,440
have a whole lot of tread on the tire. He's

239
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:10,039
been under two hundred years carries the last two years.

240
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: Okay, we have to wait and see.

241
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,039
Speaker 2: This is a nice trade, but I don't think the

242
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,600
long term solution for Texans running back has been solid

243
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:23,919
because of this.

244
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,159
Speaker 1: Can I say that and be fair? Yeah?

245
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,039
Speaker 3: And I will say fourth and a seventh hurts more

246
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,960
than the initial report of a fifth.

247
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 2: In my mind, fourth rounds hurt they do for sure.

248
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,799
All right, that's what the Texans are doing. So a

249
00:13:37,799 --> 00:13:39,440
busy day for them on the free age in front.

250
00:13:39,919 --> 00:13:41,440
We will get to some of that we will get

251
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,000
to the Astros lineup today, which will feature.

252
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: A left fielders latch DH making his spring debut. Is

253
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:48,120
that fair?

254
00:13:48,159 --> 00:13:50,639
Speaker 2: You want to say that because the rest of the

255
00:13:50,639 --> 00:13:52,360
outfielders ain't hitting for squad so far.

256
00:13:53,480 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: It's early, it's just the preseason, all right. So Ian

257
00:14:04,919 --> 00:14:11,440
Rappaport is a shill for nicki'na say that because and

258
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,360
I commented on this is the exact same moment we

259
00:14:13,399 --> 00:14:13,840
saw it.

260
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,519
Speaker 3: The phrase I was gonna use. Is I understand Ian

261
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,519
Rappaport has to play the shill game.

262
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a shill.

263
00:14:21,279 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 3: He was first on the scene for this trade. Probably

264
00:14:23,519 --> 00:14:25,679
he got it from the Texans, so he has to shill.

265
00:14:25,799 --> 00:14:30,320
But go ahead, Matthew with what did Ian Rappaport say

266
00:14:30,639 --> 00:14:31,639
eleven minutes ago?

267
00:14:31,799 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 2: Ian Rappaport two years ago, Texans GM Nick Cassio traded

268
00:14:35,879 --> 00:14:38,399
for Joe Mixon, a powerback who started for them. It

269
00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:43,720
was productive, that's fair, until allegedly he got in some trouble.

270
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,600
We don't know what it was. By the wait, Jonathan

271
00:14:45,679 --> 00:14:47,799
is so off his game. We've mentioned makes his name

272
00:14:47,919 --> 00:14:48,679
multiple times today.

273
00:14:48,679 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 1: I'm here nothing no shot, no gunshots, no gunshots. What

274
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:52,679
is going on back.

275
00:14:54,559 --> 00:14:56,519
Speaker 3: He's busy. It's a short show. He's checked out.

276
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: I'm fighting through. I got a little horse voice here.

277
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,679
You okay, I'm fine. I just I wasn't gonna say

278
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,679
anything till you did. No. But I mean the reality is, uh,

279
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,919
temperature changes happened to my body all the time.

280
00:15:06,919 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 2: So okay, so just step up. If I'm here with

281
00:15:09,879 --> 00:15:11,320
the horseboys, at least you can do is.

282
00:15:13,879 --> 00:15:20,679
Speaker 3: What that scares me every time? Turn that down? Here

283
00:15:20,759 --> 00:15:24,960
comes the show part. Last year it was Nick Chubb

284
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:31,879
who had a resurgency. What this year it's David Montgomery.

285
00:15:33,879 --> 00:15:36,279
Speaker 2: So I wanted to be fair when it came to

286
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:41,919
the Nick Chubb and resurgent season. You had one hundred

287
00:15:41,919 --> 00:15:44,879
and twenty two carries for five hundred and six yards.

288
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:46,559
Speaker 3: I mean it's resurgent.

289
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 2: I guess he had a four point one per yard carry,

290
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:52,440
which isn't bad.

291
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: Good. It's not a lead, but it's not bad. It's

292
00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:00,759
better than the three. It's not good. I'm sorry.

293
00:16:01,399 --> 00:16:03,639
Speaker 2: If you have five hundred and six yards in rushing,

294
00:16:03,679 --> 00:16:06,279
that's not a resurgence, that's a well, we're happy to

295
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:07,279
have you here for a little bit.

296
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: Thanks for your service.

297
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I guess it's a resurgence in uh,

298
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,720
I mean relative to his knee completely falling apart and

299
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:19,080
only getting three hundred yards the year before. But it's yeah,

300
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,720
I mean he's shilling for Nick Cassario because Nick Cassaria

301
00:16:21,799 --> 00:16:23,960
gives him. You gotta grease the wheels. That's just how

302
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:24,279
it goes.

303
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 2: And I think we are now seeing a trend ROSSI

304
00:16:28,679 --> 00:16:32,320
that the Texans do not want to invest in young

305
00:16:32,399 --> 00:16:36,519
running backs because everybody they've grabbed in the last what

306
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,879
three years or so, have been in the downturn of

307
00:16:40,879 --> 00:16:45,000
their NFL career, not down well but old for running backs.

308
00:16:45,399 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 3: I mean the woo he marks on a fourth is

309
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,879
it's not nothing. But it's not like they've spent big

310
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:54,440
draft capital and but and also their plan would have

311
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,759
been for Joe Mixon to be healthy last year. That

312
00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,720
was plan A. Nick Chubb was playing f.

313
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,759
Speaker 2: But just think about it in the last handful of years,

314
00:17:06,839 --> 00:17:10,799
Joe Mixon, Nick Chubb and now David Money.

315
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean David Montgomery fits the bill fourth and

316
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:21,599
a seventh. It's not nothing, no, because also you're paying

317
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,079
him nine million dollars and oh, by the way, I

318
00:17:24,079 --> 00:17:25,920
think he he'll probably want to get some more money

319
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,079
from you. He might yeah, you know, and nick will say,

320
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,039
if the player wants to get do good, we'll give

321
00:17:32,079 --> 00:17:32,440
him some money.

322
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 1: The players I want to do good, we'll think about it.

323
00:17:35,039 --> 00:17:36,759
Speaker 2: Don't ask Nicky say about this because it'll be a

324
00:17:36,799 --> 00:17:37,920
forty five minute words salary.

325
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:41,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, we wanted to look.

326
00:17:41,559 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 3: We're always looking for avenues to improve the team, and

327
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,000
obviously run game is something that wasn't up to par

328
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,400
to our standards last year and something that can can

329
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,599
really help a coach. To Demico Ryans, we've talked about

330
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:55,519
a lot.

331
00:17:55,279 --> 00:17:56,279
Speaker 1: We want to run the ball.

332
00:17:56,319 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 3: We want to be effective running the ball, and Dave

333
00:17:58,559 --> 00:18:00,359
Montgomery is something that's done that in the NFL.

334
00:18:01,599 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 2: You know, on first down, if he gets four yards,

335
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:04,960
it'd be second and six. If you get three yards

336
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,640
in first down of his second, for second and seven.

337
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,359
If he gets five yards on first down of his third,

338
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,200
every second and five and then he gets ten yards

339
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:11,440
and then we take the first time we go too.

340
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:13,759
Speaker 1: Oh, it's exhausting.

341
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,559
Speaker 3: He's been a productive back in this league. He's got

342
00:18:16,559 --> 00:18:19,720
a lot experience in this league him he doesn't have

343
00:18:19,759 --> 00:18:21,599
a lot of tread on the tire for someone at

344
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:22,200
his age.

345
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 1: You know, there's there's some tread I mean seven years.

346
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:29,559
Speaker 3: But he's been a light workload the last couple of

347
00:18:29,599 --> 00:18:33,440
years just because he wasn't better than Jimier Gibbs.

348
00:18:34,559 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 1: I mean, somebody has to lose playing time if he

349
00:18:37,319 --> 00:18:39,440
is better than men.

350
00:18:39,559 --> 00:18:44,319
Speaker 3: We got me, all right, come on over, Bride's man.

351
00:18:44,599 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 1: You know what that's ross that that's what the T

352
00:18:46,559 --> 00:18:51,960
shirt should be. We got B. Yeah, well last year

353
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,559
we got D but oh no, no, you.

354
00:18:56,519 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 3: Didn't get the ten in the group, but you got

355
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:58,240
the eight.

356
00:19:00,319 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 1: Oh are you good? Are you right? Referencing it to

357
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,680
going out with your burros on a date night? Yeah,

358
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,279
somebody went home with the uh with the Miss Texas

359
00:19:09,319 --> 00:19:14,680
and somebody went home with the Miss Beaumont. Okay, that's

360
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,839
was still timed trying to make up for it. That's good.

361
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:23,160
He just keep you know what, I'll give you credit, Jureth.

362
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,039
You should at least just fire just to play it,

363
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:26,720
because they're like, I owe you one to these. Oh

364
00:19:26,759 --> 00:19:27,119
my god.

365
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,799
Speaker 3: Now now Tom Pallisarro's on the shilling on the Lions side.

366
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:31,759
Speaker 1: Go ahead.

367
00:19:32,079 --> 00:19:35,559
Speaker 3: Thanks to Tampa Strows for pointing this out. Dan Campbell

368
00:19:35,599 --> 00:19:37,480

369
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,880

426
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 3: It's terrible. It must mean a bad mood from this cold.

427
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:39,079
Speaker 1: You know.

428
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 2: I don't have to call. It's just you know, you

429
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,039
the change of temperature. Sometimes it's kind of messes with

430
00:22:43,079 --> 00:22:43,519
your throat.

431
00:22:44,279 --> 00:22:48,519
Speaker 1: God here, okay, so you're having throat issues.

432
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,759
Speaker 3: Well I'm a horse, yeah, but youah a horse throat.

433
00:22:54,279 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 2: Excuse me you got horse throat. I've had a lot

434
00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:03,400
of horse things in my life. I bet you have

435
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,519
seven one three two one two five seven, Auntie. I

436
00:23:07,519 --> 00:23:09,279
gotta work on to tell the truth, and you're messing

437
00:23:09,319 --> 00:23:09,720
with me, right.

438
00:23:09,799 --> 00:23:13,279
Speaker 1: I didn't do anything. Scott it Riverer oaks on seven

439
00:23:13,319 --> 00:23:14,000
Ati Hello.

440
00:23:13,839 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 5: Scott Matt Ross was going on, guys, is what a

441
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,880
what an interesting trade? I'm driving around and get this

442
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:22,680
breaking news is pretty cool, and something like that pops

443
00:23:22,759 --> 00:23:25,279
up when you're in the car. My first though on

444
00:23:25,319 --> 00:23:27,920
and I know you guys don't seem when you're driving

445
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,240
around and there's breaking news.

446
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,039
Speaker 1: And something pops up when you're in the car. Scott's

447
00:23:31,079 --> 00:23:32,640
up in your car. I was a little worried about

448
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:33,480
you there for a second.

449
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:35,599
Speaker 5: No, no, we're safe and sound.

450
00:23:35,599 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 1: Don't don't worry.

451
00:23:36,759 --> 00:23:39,319
Speaker 5: But my first thought, I know you guys didn't seem

452
00:23:40,079 --> 00:23:41,559
overly enthused about the trade.

453
00:23:41,599 --> 00:23:42,039
Speaker 1: But we know.

454
00:23:42,559 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 5: What I imagine Dimiko is saying to himself is, you know,

455
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,640
we cannot have the issues in the red zone that

456
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,319
we had any longer. Watching us try to run the

457
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,200
ball at the goal line, not only is it insufferable,

458
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,720
I think it cost us the Denver game this year

459
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,640
when in the first half we couldn't pune. We tried

460
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,440
to punch balling from the one four times and we

461
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,359
couldn't do it Seattle. Even though we got killed in

462
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:05,839
that game, you know we would have had a chance

463
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,319
to come back. We could have punched the ball in

464
00:24:07,319 --> 00:24:09,640
in the red zone. So I think at least David

465
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,759
Montgomery addresses that is That is the hypothetical thought that

466
00:24:13,799 --> 00:24:16,559
they have, and I think there's no reason that it shouldn't.

467
00:24:16,599 --> 00:24:18,839
He might not be an explosive back, but he can

468
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,799
keep us on schedule and really help address some of

469
00:24:21,799 --> 00:24:24,880
the red zone issues. I mean, ultimately, as many problems

470
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,119
as our offense has. I don't think we're terrible at

471
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,920
moving the ball in between the twenties, but getting down

472
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,880
into the red zone is absolutely putrid, and I think

473
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,880
Montgomery aka Knuckles can help with that. On a side note,

474
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,039
Jamiir Gibbs is one of my favorite players in the NFL,

475
00:24:40,079 --> 00:24:44,400
so I'm excited to watch him fully takeover in Detroit.

476
00:24:44,759 --> 00:24:46,160
But thanks, guys will end up listening.

477
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 2: Thank you. That makes Jamiir Gibbs. You're number one picking

478
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:50,680
their fantasy draft next year.

479
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:51,319
Speaker 1: Right easy?

480
00:24:52,319 --> 00:24:58,319
Speaker 3: I would say, yes, yeah, yep.

481
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: They're working in my room next to my room. No,

482
00:25:03,039 --> 00:25:04,759
I don't hear anything good. That's good.

483
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,039
Speaker 3: There was construction they were doing in West Palm too.

484
00:25:07,079 --> 00:25:09,319
Speaker 1: Everything. Oh, I have construction next to every hotel room

485
00:25:09,319 --> 00:25:12,519
I'm in. It's ridiculous. I don't know, Matt. Sorry, Well,

486
00:25:12,559 --> 00:25:14,359
they realize the value of me doing a live radio

487
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,480
shore from their glorious five star hotel.

488
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 3: They're trying to there. Yeah, probably be Jean Robinson or

489
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,039
Jamira Gibbs. That's what people are saying. That's what the

490
00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:23,160
fantasy streets are saying.

491
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:30,319
Speaker 2: Yep, Okay this now wex our Texans report not inside

492
00:25:30,319 --> 00:25:33,039
because I'm the insider. Wex seems to think it does

493
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:34,839
not provide any clarity that Joe Mixon.

494
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 1: I think it does provide clarity. Wait a second, you

495
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:44,400
didn't break this trade, mister insider. I'm I'm with the Rockets.

496
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:45,880
I can't break everything on a nut in town.

497
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 3: Okay, if I wasn't used that I had really so.

498
00:25:51,599 --> 00:25:55,039
Adam Wexer thinks this means Joe Mixon could stay. No,

499
00:25:55,079 --> 00:25:57,319
they're not gonna pay No, he's they're not gonna pay

500
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:58,799
David Montgomery nine million dollars.

501
00:25:59,039 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 1: No, stays wrong.

502
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 2: They've got to get rid of Mixon's money, especially he

503
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,160
hasn't touched a football.

504
00:26:08,799 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 1: In a year.

505
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,079
Speaker 3: Uh, where are you seeing this from?

506
00:26:11,079 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: Wex?

507
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 3: Then Texans trade from Montgomery is another non evasive statement

508
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,440
by Nicossario and Joe Mixon's future. I think that he's

509
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,960
saying no, he's saying Joe Mixon's gone. Non evasive statement,

510
00:26:21,599 --> 00:26:23,599
as in, it's a direct statement that Joe Mixon's gone,

511
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,079
Oh okay, ma misorid of that, thank you, thank.

512
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,519
Speaker 1: You, you're a misquoting Adam Wexler, our Texans insider. Well,

513
00:26:29,559 --> 00:26:31,480
I mean he's probably in tears right now. Would you

514
00:26:31,519 --> 00:26:33,640
leave him a littlettle wise in tears? Because he he

515
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,559
loves Juice Scruggs. Juice Scrugs guy, No, he's not. Yeah.

516
00:26:38,519 --> 00:26:40,680
A matter of fact, Juice Scrugs spent Thanksgiving with the

517
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,200
Wexer family. That's not true. I didn't want to tell

518
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:45,480
anybody until just he's not.

519
00:26:45,599 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 3: He doesn't have a Scrugs jersey.

520
00:26:49,279 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 2: Who if you if you would have an offensive lineman's

521
00:26:51,519 --> 00:26:54,000
jersey in the history of the Texans organization, who would

522
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:54,319
have gone with?

523
00:26:54,519 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 1: You? Go? Daine Brown, Tony Bi No, you don't want

524
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:02,519
to people had jerseys, remember they did? Yeah? See, but

525
00:27:02,519 --> 00:27:04,680
I'm talking about right now, in twenty twenty, Right now,

526
00:27:05,799 --> 00:27:09,000
it have to be I guess No, nobody's buying Ursery

527
00:27:09,079 --> 00:27:10,799
jersey except the Ursery family. I know.

528
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:11,599
Speaker 3: That's what I mean.

529
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,519
Speaker 1: Who else are you gonna go with? That's why about

530
00:27:13,559 --> 00:27:17,000
you go? Dwayne Brown? Right? Who? Twaine Brown the greatest

531
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,079
offensive linement in technans history. Oh you mean in history. Well,

532
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,559
I say you said right now, Well that's true, but

533
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,079
just put this away. If I said let's go to

534
00:27:25,079 --> 00:27:28,240
the Texan Shop, I'm gonna don't have They don't have

535
00:27:28,279 --> 00:27:30,240
any lineman Jersey of the Textan Shop. You gotta get

536
00:27:30,279 --> 00:27:31,039
this custom it we can.

537
00:27:31,079 --> 00:27:32,799
Speaker 3: We can actually fit one to you. I don't have

538
00:27:32,799 --> 00:27:36,640
a triple X. Jake Andrews. Jersey's not available.

539
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 1: Oh lord, Jake, bake up. By the way, Jake Andrews

540
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,319
is still your starting center right now, He's got to be.

541
00:27:42,319 --> 00:27:46,039
You know, it's not no week one. Jake Andrews will

542
00:27:46,039 --> 00:27:48,599
not be your starting center. I feel confident in saying that.

543
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,839
Speaker 2: I did text uh c J. Stroud just minutes ago

544
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,519
because you did. And I said, what do you think

545
00:27:54,519 --> 00:27:56,160
about all these changes? And he says new phone?

546
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 1: Who is?

547
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:58,599
Speaker 3: It's a new haircut?

548
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,279
Speaker 1: Who this? Yeah? He says, I'm busy hanging out with

549
00:28:02,319 --> 00:28:05,000
Bryce Young? Yeah, why can't he hang out with Bryce?

550
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:06,839
I didn't say he couldn't. I just said he was

551
00:28:06,839 --> 00:28:11,440
hanging out with him. This is Broski, Bryce Young or c. J.

552
00:28:11,519 --> 00:28:15,160
Stroud twenty twenty six. Who do you want? C J.

553
00:28:15,279 --> 00:28:21,519
Stroud with zero hesitation, with minimal hesitation. There you go.

554
00:28:21,559 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, if you had zero, then you're

555
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:27,279
just you're just being a Texans minimal hesitation. I'm still

556
00:28:27,279 --> 00:28:31,000
sticking with Stroud. Can we have this exact same conversation

557
00:28:31,039 --> 00:28:35,880
a year for now? Yes, Okay, let's go. I was

558
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,319
scared as well. I'm buying C. J. Stroud stock only

559
00:28:39,359 --> 00:28:40,839
because it's the lowest it's ever been.

560
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: It's like Bitcoin. After a rough month of February, Bitcoin

561
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,279
got crushed. What are we looking at right now? I

562
00:28:48,319 --> 00:28:52,400
told you to sell it. Yeah you're wrong. I'm still up, okay,

563
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:53,920
but I just want you to make as much money

564
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,079
as you don't. You don't even know what you're talking about.

565
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:56,960
That is accurate.

566
00:28:58,799 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 2: I have no idea how the bitcome in game works,

567
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,160
and I don't will never find out.

568
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 1: That's okay.

569
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 3: I just look at my four olin kne It's all

570
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,640
over the place, and it went from one hundred. It

571
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,559
was one hundred and twenty thousand. Now it's down to

572
00:29:08,599 --> 00:29:12,119
seventy thousand. But when you told me it was crashing

573
00:29:12,119 --> 00:29:14,000
for good, it was at thirty. So it's still up

574
00:29:14,039 --> 00:29:16,599
from there. I'm one for two on my great analysis.

575
00:29:16,599 --> 00:29:18,240
I did tell you that Pokemon would be no longer

576
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:18,759
a big bit.

577
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: People love POKEMONO. Still, you're wrong.

578
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 3: I know people who's I know multiple people who still

579
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:26,279
play Pokemon Go.

580
00:29:27,079 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: But it wasn't like it was ten years ago.

581
00:29:29,119 --> 00:29:31,079
Speaker 3: No, it didn't have the initial pop. Yeah, and you know,

582
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,279
and guess what, the Beatles aren't selling fifteen million records

583
00:29:34,279 --> 00:29:36,720
this year. Stuff goes down for fifty years.

584
00:29:37,119 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, I guess what I watched yesterday,

585
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,839
Band on the Run, the new documentary on Prime on

586
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,960
the way to Washington, DC yesterday. That's great. I guarantee

587
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:46,799
you fifty years now. I ain't doing no documentary on

588
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:47,480
Kendrick Lamar.

589
00:29:48,119 --> 00:29:54,279
Speaker 3: You're okay, the only Peo nerve. Sorry, Oh they're shreaking nerve.

590
00:29:54,319 --> 00:29:56,839
You're just ignorant. You want to continue to show your

591
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,279
ass on this. That's fine. He's a twenty seven times

592
00:29:59,279 --> 00:30:03,519
Grammy winner and a Pulitzer Prize winner and like he's

593
00:30:03,559 --> 00:30:07,119
got like three albums in Rolling Stones Top five hundred

594
00:30:07,119 --> 00:30:07,720
of all time.

595
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,519
Speaker 1: It's right, Yeah, I'm missing the bone on this one. Yeah,

596
00:30:10,519 --> 00:30:11,039
it's okay.

597
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, you keep you This is more about you revealing

598
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:16,440
yourself than anything.

599
00:30:16,119 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: Else, there won't be known again. Damn Kenner, Lamar Channel

600
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,519
and Serious XM in twenty seventy five, there might not

601
00:30:23,559 --> 00:30:24,960
be And that's okay.

602
00:30:25,319 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 3: Jimmy Buffett got a channel, So what Jimmy Buffett sucks?

603
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: Oh, get a pairentheads, get him, get him. He's notly

637
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:41,319
morning to you.

638
00:32:42,119 --> 00:32:43,759
Speaker 4: Come onrning guys, how y'all doing this morning?

639
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:45,839
Speaker 1: Good good?

640
00:32:45,839 --> 00:32:49,119
Speaker 4: He you know at the end of the year in

641
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,000
that playoff series, you know, I called him and said, man,

642
00:32:51,039 --> 00:32:53,079
the Texans got with Trade Strouds to the Jets for

643
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,920
the first and second, and of course that after time

644
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,480
went by, I understood their logic and you hope they

645
00:32:58,519 --> 00:33:01,440
know what they're doing. It made sense. This morning, I

646
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,400
get the text on the phone that they traded Titus

647
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,079
Howard and it said for a draft pick. And initially

648
00:33:07,119 --> 00:33:09,119
I'm thinking, well, if it's a second round pick, that's

649
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:12,359
pretty good, but it's a fifth round pick. And then

650
00:33:12,359 --> 00:33:14,119
I said, well, they must be clearing a lot of

651
00:33:14,119 --> 00:33:18,000
cap space. And in the National Football leagu they're clearing

652
00:33:18,039 --> 00:33:20,079
four point two million dollars, which to you and me

653
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,160
is a lot of money, but in cap space it's

654
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:26,039
almost nothing. I'm just curious if you guys can explain

655
00:33:26,119 --> 00:33:29,920
that move. The second trade with with Juice scrugs, I

656
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,240
don't understand either. But the tightest Howard to me is

657
00:33:32,279 --> 00:33:34,039
really a head scratch. He was the one guy that

658
00:33:34,079 --> 00:33:36,960
could play all positions and started. I'll hang up and

659
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,839
listen again. Enjoy your guys show. I hope you can

660
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,480
maybe shed some why why they did that. I appreciate it.

661
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:42,559
Speaker 1: Thank you, Thanks, thank you, Doug.

662
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 2: To me Ross, it's tightest Howard under his last year

663
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,119
in his contract, and they have no ambitions of trying

664
00:33:48,119 --> 00:33:49,000
to extend him.

665
00:33:49,279 --> 00:33:51,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he won an extension. He got paid

666
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,359
twenty He's going to make twenty million dollars a year

667
00:33:54,839 --> 00:33:57,240
for three years with Cleveland. They didn't want to pay

668
00:33:57,279 --> 00:34:00,440
that probably was going to be a possible holdout today situation,

669
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:04,119
so they got out and got a fifth rounder. So,

670
00:34:04,279 --> 00:34:06,279
I mean, as far as I know, it's eighteen million

671
00:34:06,279 --> 00:34:11,480
dollars in cash savings but a twenty three Uh this

672
00:34:11,519 --> 00:34:13,480
is from this guy, you know, the the cap all

673
00:34:13,519 --> 00:34:17,320
of the the amateur capologists on Twitter, Texans cap eighteen

674
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,760
million dollars in cash savings but a twenty four million

675
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:20,760
dollars dead money hit.

676
00:34:23,039 --> 00:34:26,079
Speaker 1: So I don't know exactly that all awest how that works.

677
00:34:26,159 --> 00:34:29,679
Speaker 2: I gotta be honest, folks, and Ross and aronan a capologist,

678
00:34:30,159 --> 00:34:31,320
it's very confusing to us.

679
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:35,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, three million in net cap savings, so it's not

680
00:34:35,119 --> 00:34:36,000
a lot of money saved.

681
00:34:36,039 --> 00:34:38,280
Speaker 2: It was going to say that's that that you and

682
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,320
I can comprehend that. Okay, that's not much at all,

683
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:45,920
but it was more done for we don't we don't

684
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:47,880
want to lame Duck on our team knowing that we're

685
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:49,199
not going to spend a lot of money on him.

686
00:34:49,199 --> 00:34:51,199
Because here's the reality, Titus Howard's been really good for

687
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:55,639
the team. It's also been hurt a lot. And if

688
00:34:55,679 --> 00:34:57,280
you're going to try and invest in a guy that's

689
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:58,960
been around as long as he has and give him

690
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:00,840
twenty plus Mainamie, it's.

691
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: Pretty elementary what the Techans do. They're willing to rotate

692
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:06,519
lineman in and out of here, and once they get

693
00:35:06,519 --> 00:35:09,280
to a certain age and a certain level, they're not

694
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,920
going to extend. And that's exactly what Laramie Tunzel want.

695
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,079
Laramie Tunseel is doe for an extension. I'm here in

696
00:35:14,199 --> 00:35:16,440
Washington where he plays here for the Commanders. One of

697
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:20,199
the stories coming out of the combine for the Commanders

698
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,840
was when are they gonna start talking to Laramie Tunsil?

699
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,599
Speaker 2: And you know how fun that is? That guy's he

700
00:35:24,679 --> 00:35:28,239
negotiated for himself. He doesn't have he doesn't have a

701
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,079
soft landing spot like an agent who can kind of

702
00:35:30,599 --> 00:35:31,280
soothe things.

703
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,039
Speaker 1: You have to go right to him.

704
00:35:33,199 --> 00:35:35,639
Speaker 3: And he had a really good season last year as well.

705
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,679
That he did for a team that didn't make the playoffs,

706
00:35:37,679 --> 00:35:42,679
but he was really good for them. It's funny, maybe

707
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,360
Ross we are learning about Nick's tendencies he likes older

708
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,679
running backs and he doesn't like older offensive alignement. Although

709
00:35:50,679 --> 00:35:52,239
at Ingram's not to bring chicken either.

710
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:53,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I.

711
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 3: Don't think he's got any hard and fast rules on that.

712
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,079
Probably they need to do something with the running back.

713
00:35:58,119 --> 00:36:00,960
And I would say even this, David Montgomery could just

714
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:05,159
be an insurance policy. You could there could be a

715
00:36:05,199 --> 00:36:07,199
situation where they're not done at the running back position.

716
00:36:09,159 --> 00:36:11,679
Speaker 2: I wonder how David Montgomery feels if he's coming here.

717
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:13,480
In the first thing, he asked Nikosia, is he gonna

718
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,159
extend me? And Nick's like, you know, well, we could

719
00:36:15,199 --> 00:36:16,880
extend you, but we could also non extend you. And

720
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:18,519
if you're a good player, will extend you. But if

721
00:36:18,519 --> 00:36:20,079
you're not a good player, we may not extend you.

722
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,920
And then David Montgomery's falling asleep midway through the conversation.

723
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:25,400
Did you give me an answer or not?

724
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 1: When I think of David Montgomery, I think of a

725
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:35,440
perfect number two back, because that combination last year. And

726
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:36,599
that's the thing about De Droit.

727
00:36:38,159 --> 00:36:40,840
Speaker 2: Is maybe that when when you have two great running backs,

728
00:36:41,119 --> 00:36:43,800
or at least a super awesome number one and a

729
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:47,679
really good competent two, that that number two is thinking

730
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,559
I need to get paid, like I'm a code.

731
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:50,679
Speaker 1: Number one and there's no way in the world. And

732
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:52,880
David Montgomery's gonna get paid any close outre Mer Gibbs

733
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:53,400
are gonna get it.

734
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,079
Speaker 3: I mean, fourth rounders is a lot to give up

735
00:36:56,119 --> 00:37:02,239
for a backup running back. So we'll see it's a

736
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,480
contingency plan for it's the day Montgomery and Wood he marks.

737
00:37:04,519 --> 00:37:06,360
I think that's kind of like the if we if

738
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,039
nothing falls our way in the draft, or if we

739
00:37:08,079 --> 00:37:10,639
don't see anything we like in free agency, We're okay

740
00:37:10,679 --> 00:37:12,559
with this as our plan.

741
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: So who was I mean, does this mean the Kenneth

742
00:37:18,039 --> 00:37:19,440
Walker conversation ends? Yeah?

743
00:37:19,639 --> 00:37:23,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so. Kennan Walker probably was gonna cost you.

744
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,159
I think this is this is maybe even a reaction

745
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,960
to whatever they thought. Can they think Kenneth Walker's gonna

746
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:28,360
cost you?

747
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:30,760
Speaker 1: All right? James is with It's on seven on eight, James,

748
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,960
what he got? Russ?

749
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 4: What happened to the running backs of Oh, like Tony

750
00:37:36,519 --> 00:37:41,199
dor said, Barry Sanders and even Arian Foster? Where are

751
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:41,719
those guys?

752
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:42,880
Speaker 1: They're not in the draft anymore?

753
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:44,320
Speaker 4: Is it because.

754
00:37:45,559 --> 00:37:47,199
Speaker 5: Now there's not a two back system?

755
00:37:47,559 --> 00:37:47,679
Speaker 1: Well?

756
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,119
Speaker 5: I know they were retired, but I mean, where are

757
00:37:49,159 --> 00:37:49,880
the new guys.

758
00:37:49,639 --> 00:37:51,280
Speaker 4: That they're going to take their places like that?

759
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 5: I think it's because they don't use a two back

760
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,519
system anymore and they use guy's benefit from that.

761
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 4: Now, I feel like the Contectants are going to have

762
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,480
a cessful running back. The two back system che thing

763
00:38:00,559 --> 00:38:00,800
on that.

764
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: Well in recent years.

765
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,039
Speaker 3: But Jon Robinson was drafted high, Ashton Genty was drafted

766
00:38:06,119 --> 00:38:08,440
high last year. Jeremiah Love out of Notre Dame is

767
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,480
supposed to be drafted high this year as well. I

768
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:15,000
mean there's some of them.

769
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:19,320
Speaker 2: I think the wear and tear on guys where it

770
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,239
puts a lot of wear and tear on Texas on

771
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:22,159
saturary caps.

772
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a position where you can more

773
00:38:26,519 --> 00:38:28,679
than others. You can find guys and as you mentioned, man,

774
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,039
it's there's wear and tear because you're in a collision

775
00:38:31,039 --> 00:38:35,079
basically every snap, you're either blocking or running the ball

776
00:38:35,199 --> 00:38:38,079
when you're out there, and they just don't You don't

777
00:38:38,079 --> 00:38:41,800
normally have the old school bellcout running backs, and we're

778
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,920
now seeing a trend where we're seeing first round picks

779
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,559
being selected with running backs. There was a stretch Ross

780
00:38:47,599 --> 00:38:49,280
Wonder about four or five years where you weren't seeing

781
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:53,639
as running back to the second round. Yeah, maybe there's

782
00:38:53,679 --> 00:38:57,800
a subtle change in that, but the reality is running

783
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,960
backs gang once they hit twenty eight twenty nine, they

784
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,360
don't carry much mustard at all. Offensive lineman at twenty

785
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,760
eight twenty nine peak of their careers twenty eight twenty

786
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:16,159
nine year old linebackers just fine. Cornerbacks, running backs, Let's

787
00:39:16,199 --> 00:39:19,760
go find somebody cheaper. Yeah, and it's a passing league now,

788
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,079
so I mean he used to be a running league

789
00:39:22,119 --> 00:39:24,039
in a power running game, and now it's a it's

790
00:39:24,079 --> 00:39:24,840
a passing league.

791
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:25,159
Speaker 1: Yeah.

792
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:27,679
Speaker 2: All right, We have another fifty minutes left to go

793
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:29,119
on today's edition of The Matt Thomas Show.

794
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:30,239
Speaker 1: Ross if you guys want to get in.

795
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:33,400
Speaker 2: Seven to one three, two one, two five seven ninety

796
00:39:34,599 --> 00:39:43,400
is The Matt Thomas Show with Rosski. Congratulations to a

797
00:39:43,519 --> 00:39:45,559
friend of the show, Jeff Passion is getting a new

798
00:39:45,639 --> 00:39:47,159
multi year extension with ESPN.

799
00:39:50,119 --> 00:39:52,320
Speaker 1: Now hopefully when he gets his extension, he can actually

800
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,519
get a suit that fits him.

801
00:39:56,039 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 3: I thought you were gonna say he's gonna buy a

802
00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:04,079
new booster seat to take to the restaurants. Hmm, yep.

803
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,000
Your line is better than mine. One of the greatest

804
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,280
air guitar players in the sports media, drums giant.

805
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:19,599
Speaker 1: I don't pick. So it was their drums, big big

806
00:40:19,679 --> 00:40:22,480
rage against the machine guy, rage against the machine. Can

807
00:40:22,519 --> 00:40:28,199
I name one of their songs? Or no? Uh? Probably not? Okay,

808
00:40:29,519 --> 00:40:36,920
all right? One of the all time great mans? Is it? Yeah? Okay?

809
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,519
David Montgomery?

810
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 2: How many carries is he gonna get next year for

811
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:47,480
the Houston Texans? Is he a twenty carry a game guy?

812
00:40:48,119 --> 00:40:48,519
Speaker 1: He can't?

813
00:40:48,599 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 3: I think I think the Texans probably think he's gonna

814
00:40:51,679 --> 00:40:52,280
He's gonna be.

815
00:40:56,679 --> 00:41:00,519
Speaker 2: Now, the question is gonna be he's got no guaranteed

816
00:41:00,559 --> 00:41:03,599
money for twenty twenty seven? Do you think he comes

817
00:41:03,639 --> 00:41:06,840
down here? Apparently he's a swell fellow and he's very

818
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:11,440
polite and very nice and gets some extra money. You're

819
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,840
gonna pay a thirty year old some serious guaranteed money

820
00:41:14,079 --> 00:41:15,400
next year in twenty twenty seven.

821
00:41:17,119 --> 00:41:20,039
Speaker 3: I'm gonna guess. I don't know, just the flat guess

822
00:41:20,039 --> 00:41:22,079
would be a restructure. I mean, I mean, a an

823
00:41:22,079 --> 00:41:24,679
extension is happening because while he's under contract this year

824
00:41:24,679 --> 00:41:25,639
and next, maybe.

825
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:32,679
Speaker 2: Not fourth round picks ROSSI those are steep. That's a

826
00:41:32,679 --> 00:41:33,400
steep price.

827
00:41:34,519 --> 00:41:36,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not nothing. The more I kind of think

828
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:37,960
about that, the more maybe he is just plan a

829
00:41:41,039 --> 00:41:41,639
which means no.

830
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:48,280
Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker and Joe Mixon, who had a terrific one

831
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:49,639
year of the Texans or do you have two?

832
00:41:49,679 --> 00:41:54,559
Speaker 1: I cannot forget mixing had I guess one good year?

833
00:41:54,760 --> 00:42:00,719
Was it? He costs you seventh? Right? Yeah? And then

834
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,039
last year we didn't know where he was. Yeah, it

835
00:42:03,079 --> 00:42:07,440
was one one good year with Houston and then last

836
00:42:07,519 --> 00:42:14,599
year who knows what happened to Jonathan Jonathan Texans girls,

837
00:42:14,599 --> 00:42:15,159

Speaker 1: Albert Breer tweets.

843
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,679
Speaker 2: The Texans had nine offensive linemen and their roster for

844
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,440
their final playoffs. For their final game in twenty twenty four,

845
00:42:40,519 --> 00:42:44,280
which was the Divisional playoff game against Kansas City. Seven

846
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:47,719
of those nine are gone fourteen months later. Only Blake

847
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:49,400
Fisher and Jared Patterson remain.

848
00:42:49,679 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: Oh wow, the Bedrocks the offensive line, how did Blake.

849
00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:02,280
Speaker 3: Fisher and Jared Patterson? How did Nick walk in to

850
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,480
Hannah's office and not just want to hide?

851
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 1: He says, look at my defense.

852
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 3: You know what, maybe Tororo town is is putting her

853
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,639
attention towards other things. He says, Look at Kamari Lassiter,

854
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:18,440
look at Kayln Bullock, look at Jalen Peatree, look at

855
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,119
well and Will Anderson was kind of toy if you will. Yeah, sure,

856
00:43:21,159 --> 00:43:23,880
why not? I mean as he's all share was a

857
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:26,840
nice signing that Derek Stingley guy. A lot of people

858
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:32,280
crushed that pick. Nobody crushed Derek Stingley and.

859
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 1: Were worried about his least thronk injury taking him as high,

860
00:43:36,039 --> 00:43:39,159
taking him as high as he was after his his Absolutely,

861
00:43:39,199 --> 00:43:44,000
people questioned the pick, Well, Sauce Gardner wasn't sauce Gardener available?

862
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,840
Did SOTS go before? Uh? Yes, sauce was available. I

863
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,400
think he would. Uh Stingley went three and then what

864
00:43:50,519 --> 00:43:52,039
sauce went four or five? Yeah.

865
00:43:52,079 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 2: Thomas Sports Enterprises continues to be very proud of the

866
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:56,199
accomplishments of Sauce Gardner.

867
00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:57,639
Speaker 3: Well, he tore his achilles, so.

868
00:43:59,679 --> 00:44:02,039
Speaker 1: Even he was in Indianapolis. Now we had root against him.

869
00:44:03,079 --> 00:44:05,760
Speaker 3: Didn't Was it an Achilles tar for Sauce Cardner? It

870
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:07,719
was some kind of bad injury.

871
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, he didn't finish out the year for the Cult.

872
00:44:10,159 --> 00:44:10,840
I don't think did he.

873
00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:15,519
Speaker 3: Oh Sis has serious left calf strain. That's not achilles

874
00:44:15,599 --> 00:44:18,679
never mind, I'm wrong the difference. It was a non

875
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,880
contact calf injury. But isn't it weird though, ross to

876
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,400
you that all these linemen have been moved for a

877
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,880
team that does not have strengthen line. Yeah, they've been trying,

878
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:34,599
they've been shuffling around. That's good.

879
00:44:33,639 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 2: I never taken a NFL roster construction class in my life.

880
00:44:39,679 --> 00:44:42,320
But how do you fix this? How do you think

881
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,519
c J. Stroud feels about this right exact moment.

882
00:44:44,559 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 1: I don't know.

883
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:48,199
Speaker 3: I wish Larry Larrman Tons could have stayed, honestly.

884
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, because he was under contract. He wasn't like he

885
00:44:52,119 --> 00:44:54,480
was I mean, he was looking for more money.

886
00:44:55,119 --> 00:44:58,559
Speaker 1: He might have probably well see, he is all about it,

887
00:44:58,639 --> 00:44:59,840
you know, but he was also a part of it

888
00:44:59,880 --> 00:45:01,840
the because on the inside I told you he was

889
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:06,039
a bad dude in the locker room, and I was

890
00:45:06,119 --> 00:45:08,119
right about that. Because the insider knows these things.

891
00:45:08,159 --> 00:45:08,599
Speaker 6: Mm hmm.

892
00:45:09,679 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 3: Sometimes you're you were getting stripped of your title. Oh yeah,

893
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:15,880
unless this unless this.

894
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,760
Speaker 1: On Diggs was an It was a Texans team captain.

895
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,800
He must have been so important. The team that came gone.

896
00:45:22,039 --> 00:45:24,800
Laramie Tunsil team captain. Yeah, Laramie Tunciel didn't show up

897
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,880
for Ota. Stephan Diggs was fine. That's real good leader.

898
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,239
I mean CJ. Gardner. Johnson wasn't fine, but Stefan Diggs

899
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:36,320

925
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:42,880
if they don't bring starters with them the road games.

926
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:44,559
Because of the World Baseball Classes, they have a lot

927
00:46:44,599 --> 00:46:45,559

millions and pay Rappaport millions. Doesn't it doesn't that seem

984
00:49:41,079 --> 00:49:44,199
I mean if you're ESPN and you're mister layoffs.

985
00:49:45,519 --> 00:49:46,639
Speaker 1: I mean, if it feels if.

986
00:49:46,519 --> 00:49:50,920
Speaker 2: They were doing that and Big Ronalds merged. Yeah, you're

987
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,760
only keeping one CEO. You're only keeping one CEO and

988
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:57,239
the Big Max stays and a wapper goes right? Oh wow,

989
00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:58,119
you keep both?

990
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:00,920
Speaker 3: No, why do you to get rid of the Whopper?

991
00:50:02,159 --> 00:50:04,519
Because you'd be acquiring urging to keep the Whopper. This

992
00:50:04,519 --> 00:50:06,639
is a bad analogy, Matt. I'm sorry. I don't think

993
00:50:06,639 --> 00:50:10,480
it's terrible. No, it's horrible. It's worse. Okay, you've had worse,

994
00:50:10,519 --> 00:50:11,320
but it's still bad.

995
00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:15,079
Speaker 1: No wait no, no, no, no no no no, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,

996
00:50:15,119 --> 00:50:18,719
yes no. You're not comparing Burger Kings to employees. If

997
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:21,880
Burger King and McDonald's merged, what stays on the menu?

998
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:26,840
Here we go, Big Max days. Do you guess the whopper?

999
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:28,920
You take the Whopper and put that over the quarter

1000
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:29,639
pine of with cheese.

1001
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:30,719
Speaker 3: No, you keep both.

1002
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,079
Speaker 1: Why would you get rid of one? In the why

1003
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:33,519
was you.

1004
00:50:34,039 --> 00:50:37,280
Speaker 3: Can have a bigger menu. Have you seen cheesecake factory?

1005
00:50:40,079 --> 00:50:43,559
All right, this is a bad analogy. Stop days whose

1006
00:50:43,599 --> 00:50:46,360
days just hit each keeping around? Okay, now you probably

1007
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:47,320
wouldn't keep fries.

1008
00:50:47,599 --> 00:50:49,880
Speaker 1: Do you bring onion rings on? You might bring on

1009
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:52,320
onion rings? All right? Just he just hit the eject

1010
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:58,400
on this analogy. Okay, folks, I tried, I tried.

1011
00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:00,760
Speaker 3: You did, just like you had Rappidport tried to show

1012
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:01,559
for the Texans.

1013
00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:05,679
Speaker 1: That's now, let's go back to the core. Stop shilling.

1014
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:09,880
It makes you look stupid. I mean, need to wrap

1015
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:13,000
it for it. Why would he say resurgence for Nick Chubb?

1016
00:51:14,079 --> 00:51:16,840
He was a jag lovely fella and a jag.

1017
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:22,840
Speaker 3: Resurgence that was comical. To tell the truth, that's coming

1018
00:51:23,199 --> 00:51:29,480
jub what Nick Chubb was not resurgent? No, he was

1019
00:51:29,599 --> 00:51:35,159
just a normal chub Ouch. Chubb's agent told him he

1020
00:51:35,199 --> 00:51:36,480
has to use the word resurgent.

1021
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:40,559
Speaker 1: Hey, I saw your tweet and I need you to

1022
00:51:40,599 --> 00:51:42,840
add resurgence. So other team's gonna want to go grab

1023
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:47,119
him at that point, don't you think they should just

1024
00:51:47,119 --> 00:51:48,960
get like a commission off of every news deal he

1025
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,360
gets done. No, he's just gonna keep getting news and

1026
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:55,280
raising his profile. Yeah, all right, eleven thirteen to tell

1027
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:55,599
the truth.

1028
00:51:55,639 --> 00:51:57,079
Speaker 2: Coming up at the bottom of the hour here on

1029
00:51:57,159 --> 00:52:03,559
Sports Talk seven eighty t Browns for a fifth round pick,

1030
00:52:04,199 --> 00:52:09,000
David Montgomery comes to the Texans from Detroit for a

1031
00:52:09,119 --> 00:52:11,639
fourth and a seventh.

1032
00:52:13,079 --> 00:52:14,039
Speaker 1: And Juice Scrugs.

1033
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:20,440
Speaker 3: David Montgomery f for Juice Scrugs, who was built from Granted,

1034
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:26,320
I've heard that's what one NFL insiders said, Tom Pellisera's

1035
00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:29,360
not that tweet was not properly put together because that

1036
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:34,719
was a pre draft conversation. But if you read it initially,

1037
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:39,039
it comes across as that's what the Lions think he is, right,

1038
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:42,360
it be soft putty more.

1039
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:46,760
Speaker 1: Than he is. Bokay, come on, man, that's not nice either.

1040
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:50,000
Speaker 3: I got apologize that built like velveto. That's that's rude. Yeah,

1041
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:51,280
you know what, write that one down.

1042
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:52,840
Speaker 1: I got two.

1043
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 3: You need to apologize to Frederick Henry Scruggs. Frederick Henry

1044
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:02,599
Scruggs three years in the Yeah.

1045
00:53:00,079 --> 00:53:08,079
Speaker 1: Us. So it's not that social media tells everything, but

1046
00:53:08,119 --> 00:53:11,440
the reality is it's not an excitable date for the Texans.

1047
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:15,000
It's more of a hunh day. Is that fair? Yeah?

1048
00:53:15,039 --> 00:53:18,679
Speaker 3: I mean yes, yes, Titus.

1049
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 1: Oh, they just traded away their most consistent offensive lineman

1050
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:25,199
from last year. Huh okay, that's right. You just you

1051
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:29,320
just ended it with they just dared their huh.

1052
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:31,559
Speaker 3: And then they traded a what for a twenty running

1053
00:53:31,559 --> 00:53:33,280
back that's going to be start the season twenty nine

1054
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:35,960
years old? A fourth and a fourth and a fourth

1055
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:36,840
and a seventh and.

1056
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:46,719
Speaker 1: Juice crugs, huh hey, okay, uh does this sound deliberate?

1057
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:48,840
Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is not desperate. These are

1058
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:50,079
things are not desperate moves.

1059
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:54,079
Speaker 3: No, I don't know. And as somebody was pointing out,

1060
00:53:54,119 --> 00:53:57,280
they love Iowa State players. Dave Montgomery, Iowa State alum.

1061
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:02,239
Speaker 1: Oh stop it. If there was a college to go to,

1062
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:04,320
Iowas date would not be on my top twenty list.

1063
00:54:05,119 --> 00:54:06,639
Speaker 3: Nick disagrees.

1064
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,559
Speaker 1: I would go John Carroll one. Everybody else too.

1065
00:54:09,679 --> 00:54:11,760
Speaker 3: That's true, Nick, as if you went to John Carroll

1066
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:13,239
Iowas Date, you're gonna be a Texan.

1067
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:18,239
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what what are we doing here?

1068
00:54:19,199 --> 00:54:21,679
Speaker 2: By the way, we had a tweeter it' said if

1069
00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:26,000
we're buying a Texans all time jersey, we're buying John Weeks, right.

1070
00:54:26,039 --> 00:54:33,320
Speaker 3: Lineman, Yeah, long snapper, best lineman in Texans history.

1071
00:54:33,119 --> 00:54:36,920
Speaker 1: Is Dwayne Brown. I think so. I don't think it's

1072
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:37,440
even close.

1073
00:54:37,559 --> 00:54:39,119
Speaker 3: He's not gonna be in the Hall of Honor.

1074
00:54:40,039 --> 00:54:41,920
Speaker 1: I mean, Eric Winston probably is in that short list

1075
00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:42,519
a Ring of Honor.

1076
00:54:42,519 --> 00:54:48,280
Speaker 3: I should say, sure, Eric Winston, and I'm tapped out

1077
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:50,039
Larry Tunsel.

1078
00:54:50,079 --> 00:54:51,719
Speaker 1: I guess how long was he here?

1079
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:53,239
Speaker 4: Uh?

1080
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:53,599
Speaker 6: Long?

1081
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:58,360
Speaker 1: The greatest lineman? Yeah, that's fine, long enough.

1082
00:54:59,599 --> 00:55:02,840
Speaker 3: Let's see five years in Houston, six six.

1083
00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,880
Speaker 2: So let's do this in perspective when the Texans went

1084
00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,199
and got Joe Joe Mixon a couple of years ago.

1085
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:14,159
I think we were really excited, were we not? Yes,

1086
00:55:14,199 --> 00:55:15,960
we were there being a pretty decent buzz for that.

1087
00:55:16,039 --> 00:55:17,840
Speaker 3: We were, and it didn't It only costs you. You're

1088
00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:19,320
gonna have to pay him, But I think it only

1089
00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:20,440
costs you a seventh rounder.

1090
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:22,280
Speaker 1: That's right. Now.

1091
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 3: You're worried about his extra cricketer activities, Like me, he

1092
00:55:26,039 --> 00:55:28,920
had been productive. They were people worried about him in

1093
00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:31,760
an inside zone system. He had bad running stats in

1094
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:34,719
an inside zone system. But I mean with with Bobby Slowock,

1095
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:36,760
but that was like a concern, but he was fine.

1096
00:55:38,639 --> 00:55:41,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think that was a pretty like,

1097
00:55:41,199 --> 00:55:44,840
what it's been the most exciting trade that Casarro was

1098
00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:49,519
made that it Yeah, I guess yeah. Did Joe Mixon one?

1099
00:55:51,159 --> 00:55:53,199
Are we due for him? And how about this one?

1100
00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:54,239
Unless you count a C. J.

1101
00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:57,599
Speaker 3: Stroud trade, I trade to get CJ. Stroud and Will Anders.

1102
00:55:57,280 --> 00:55:59,719
Speaker 1: Oh the second, the second, the top three pick, that's

1103
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:01,480
what was excited. Do you count that as a trader?

1104
00:56:01,639 --> 00:56:05,039
Us the draft trades different and I consider that a trade, Yeah,

1105
00:56:05,079 --> 00:56:08,440
for sure. Okay, but that was because Hannah told him

1106
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:08,880
to do that.

1107
00:56:10,599 --> 00:56:13,559
Speaker 2: Hannah said, look, I know you like this Will Anderson junior,

1108
00:56:13,679 --> 00:56:14,360
Kiddi's really good.

1109
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:18,159
Speaker 3: You're getting me a quarterback. And Cal's like whatever Hannah said,

1110
00:56:18,159 --> 00:56:23,039
goes absolutely well, get her a quarterback.

1111
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:23,480
Speaker 1: Nick.

1112
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:27,639
Speaker 2: There was no way the Texans could go into that

1113
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:31,000
rookie year, that first year three years ago without grabbing

1114
00:56:31,039 --> 00:56:35,920
a quarterbackup of some note, and they did, and they

1115
00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:37,960
did so good for Nick to be able to pull

1116
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:41,760
that off. Now, the argument now is, and it's it's

1117
00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,119
it's it's a it's an environment of riches, is that

1118
00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:47,440
you have to have two picks in the top five

1119
00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:49,519
who are gonna cost you big time money, now obviously

1120
00:56:49,519 --> 00:56:51,559
at different positions, but they have to get paid at

1121
00:56:51,559 --> 00:56:53,400
the same time, or at least in theory they were

1122
00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:54,599
going to because you were thinking they were going to

1123
00:56:54,679 --> 00:56:57,280
both be in the same trajectory northward and they would

1124
00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:59,360
both be willing to be paid here for long term extensions.

1125
00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:02,320
Will Anderson deserves extension at this point right now, c J.

1126
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:03,000
Stroud does not.

1127
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're gonna try to extend both. Well, no, you're

1128
00:57:08,159 --> 00:57:09,840
gonna try to pick up the fifth year option then

1129
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:11,880
try to extend Will Anderson. So we have until May

1130
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:16,840
firth on those extensions may believe, So, yeah, that's gonna happen.

1131
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:22,719
Speaker 2: Oh, I both get him for sure. And if you're CJ.

1132
00:57:23,679 --> 00:57:25,719
And Will gets his extension this year and you don't,

1133
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:29,840
you might be publicly, I mean so you may be

1134
00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:32,159
privately stewing over this, but publicly you have to love

1135
00:57:32,159 --> 00:57:32,800
every bit of it.

1136
00:57:33,159 --> 00:57:38,000
Speaker 1: No, yes, no, come on, everybody knows c J. Stroud thinking, Hey,

1137
00:57:38,039 --> 00:57:41,840
does he think he had a great playoffs? There's no way, Well,

1138
00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:45,000
what he's going to make changes? He cut off his hair, he.

1139
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 2: Knows what is what if DA have Mullagata is feeding

1140
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,039
him information like you know what you deserve more, You

1141
00:57:50,079 --> 00:57:51,079
deserve a bit of the money.

1142
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:52,519
Speaker 1: You should be getting. I'm sure he's got a team

1143
00:57:52,519 --> 00:57:55,559
pumping him up, but how can you how can you

1144
00:57:55,559 --> 00:57:58,280
you four interceptions? If maybe if he threw like for

1145
00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:00,679
two fifty and two bad picks and two touchdowns, we

1146
00:58:00,679 --> 00:58:03,800
could do something. Yeah, but there's.

1147
00:58:03,599 --> 00:58:08,119
Speaker 3: No way, there's no sugar coating that that those playoff performances,

1148
00:58:08,119 --> 00:58:10,079
there's no way to sugarcoat.

1149
00:58:09,519 --> 00:58:13,159
Speaker 2: Those, And I think it'll look in a really bizarre way.

1150
00:58:14,079 --> 00:58:17,039
The cutting of the hair was that's the old me. Yes,

1151
00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:18,079
maybe it is.

1152
00:58:19,719 --> 00:58:22,480
Speaker 3: It's like, uh, you know, yeah, you get you get

1153
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:24,599
a divorce, and you start dressing a little better, and

1154
00:58:24,599 --> 00:58:26,559
you get to change your hair cut up a little bit.

1155
00:58:26,719 --> 00:58:27,920
Speaker 1: And you start working out.

1156
00:58:28,119 --> 00:58:32,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, then the ex wife comes over and says, why

1157
00:58:32,239 --> 00:58:33,960
weren't you doing that when we were married?

1158
00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:37,519
Speaker 1: You were all flabby and stuff. It's got complacent.

1159
00:58:39,239 --> 00:58:41,159
Speaker 2: Same thing for men when they lose their wives. The

1160
00:58:41,199 --> 00:58:43,840
wives getting work done and they get way and they

1161
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:44,480
way better.

1162
00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 1: Haircutor and stuff.

1163
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's uh, yeah, that's exactly what CJ. Stride is

1164
00:58:53,679 --> 00:58:54,559
trying to do a makeover.

1165
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:59,639
Speaker 1: Yes, but I don't think I mean, does anybody think

1166
00:58:59,639 --> 00:59:01,079
that because he cut the hair all of a sudden

1167
00:59:01,119 --> 00:59:02,199
is a different human being.

1168
00:59:02,239 --> 00:59:04,599
Speaker 3: I don't think so. You just mean it was maybe

1169
00:59:04,639 --> 00:59:08,360
it was obviously media manufactured. It's a different mindset. Got

1170
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:10,360
a huge runout of and he's ready. He's ready, Matt.

1171
00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:14,280
It's a different mindset. It's gonna be run Yeah.

1176
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:27,480
Speaker 2: Astros in action today against the Nationals. Hunter Brown makes

1177
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:29,519
a second start and we'll have it for you right

1178
00:59:29,519 --> 00:59:30,800
here on Sports Talk seven ninety.

1179
00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:32,880
Speaker 1: Coming up in about twenty five.

1180
00:59:32,679 --> 00:59:35,400
Speaker 2: Minutes from now, we have the Rockets tonight ROSSI against

1181
00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:38,559
the Wizard. Do you like the rockets chances after maybe

1182
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:41,440
a disappointing loss to in Miami on Saturday afternoon.

1183
00:59:42,519 --> 00:59:45,559
Speaker 3: That was disappointing. It just you could just you just

1184
00:59:45,599 --> 00:59:49,920
feel it wasn't there night, nothing was going their way. Yeah,

1185
00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,559
but they're gonna bounce back. Yes, Fifteen and a half

1186
00:59:52,559 --> 00:59:58,280
point favorites tonight on the road. On the road, and

1187
00:59:58,320 --> 00:59:59,719
you're supposed to do in the NBA game, what do

1188
00:59:59,719 --> 01:00:04,239
you what suposed to get four points depends right, So

1189
01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:07,679
in theory, if the Rockets don't win this by at

1190
01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:11,719
least nineteen, they'll be considered a disappointment. No, if any win,

1191
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:12,639
I'll take any victory.

1192
01:00:12,679 --> 01:00:14,000
Speaker 1: I'll take a one point victory.

1193
01:00:14,159 --> 01:00:16,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I one like it, but I'll take it.

1194
01:00:17,039 --> 01:00:19,519
Speaker 2: And again, here's the thing I was on Sports Sunday

1195
01:00:19,559 --> 01:00:22,400
last night. If you lose two games or win two games,

1196
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:26,199
that is a massive fluctuation in the Western Conference right now.

1197
01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:30,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's looking like three seed is the play not

1198
01:00:30,039 --> 01:00:30,800
gonna get a two.

1199
01:00:31,199 --> 01:00:33,440
Speaker 2: No, although san Antonio finally loss of the first time,

1200
01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:34,440
it feels like two months.

1201
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,719
Speaker 1: Yes, and shake Gilles Alexander's back for the Thunder and

1202
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:39,639
they've lost, they've won, excuse me, a couple of games

1203
01:00:39,679 --> 01:00:42,440
in a row. And did you see what Doris Burke said?

1204
01:00:42,599 --> 01:00:45,880
What did Doris Burke say? Doris I did say, Actually,

1205
01:00:46,199 --> 01:00:49,760
she get other teams don't get fouls that SGA gets

1206
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:51,880
when he's the one committing them.

1207
01:00:52,079 --> 01:00:54,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's he's a foubator and he's the best. He's

1208
01:00:54,679 --> 01:00:55,960
the best vaubator in the league right now.

1209
01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:58,039
Speaker 1: Right would you say it's almost like you don't you know.

1210
01:00:58,039 --> 01:00:59,559
Speaker 2: Look, we had the same issue with the Rockets and

1211
01:00:59,639 --> 01:01:03,400
years ago people would just destroy the rockets because James

1212
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:05,440
James was going to the free throw line ten eleven

1213
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:05,880
times a game.

1214
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:09,480
Speaker 3: Guess who're doing that now? It's shake Yildess Alexander. Yep,

1215
01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:12,440
it's efficient. It works.

1216
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:14,679
Speaker 2: You would think if you're going to the free throw

1217
01:01:14,719 --> 01:01:16,840
line ten to eleven times, you need ice bass because

1218
01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:20,320
you're getting so beat up. There ain't even a scar

1219
01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:22,000
on any of SGA's injuries.

1220
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:25,239
Speaker 3: He just came back from an ap injury. It was

1221
01:01:25,239 --> 01:01:26,199
from a hard foul.

1222
01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 2: You're just making that up. I have pull out eperturee.

1223
01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:35,039
It's a made up thing. Let's play to tell the.

1224
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:39,719
Speaker 3: Truth, Rossie, I have four sports takes, really, I believe

1225
01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:40,599
three of them.

1226
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:44,760
Speaker 1: That means, Jonathan, how many lies am I going to

1227
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:50,679

1231

1232
01:02:00,559 --> 01:02:01,719
Speaker 1: This is made up. I got four.

1233
01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:03,840
Speaker 3: You can't get a win over me if I'm not here.

01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:06,840

Speaker 2: I do know how to tell the truth in fact

1274
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:11,480
right now and to tell the truth, I'm going to give.

1275
01:04:11,280 --> 01:04:14,639
Speaker 1: You three truths and one line.

1276
01:04:16,119 --> 01:04:18,920
Speaker 2: It will be up to you, Houston, and up to

1277
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:24,079
Ross and to Jonathan to detect what I'm lying about.

1278
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:29,239
We're gonna let Jonathan get those calls put on the screen,

1279
01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:31,880
line them up. They're there, all right. Here we go,

1280
01:04:32,199 --> 01:04:37,519
three truths, one line. Thus, one of the things.

1281
01:04:37,559 --> 01:04:39,679
Speaker 1: I'm lying. The rest of the three, I'm telling the truth.

1282
01:04:40,039 --> 01:04:42,920
Ross You ready to go, can't wait? Here we go.

1283
01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:47,679
Speaker 2: I believe these are sports takes, not opinions or predictions.

1284
01:04:47,679 --> 01:04:52,280
But in my opinion, my opinion, I think the Textans

1285
01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:55,639
should trade out of twenty eight to get an extra

1286
01:04:55,760 --> 01:05:00,119
pick to further develop their offensive line, because now they've

1287
01:05:00,159 --> 01:05:04,360
lost two more players. Strengthen numbers. Get an extra draft

1288
01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:07,480
pick you've already got. You lost your fourth round.

1289
01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:10,480
Speaker 1: Twenty eight to me is a nice number, but you

1290
01:05:10,519 --> 01:05:12,599
can get you can you find somebody that will trade

1291
01:05:12,639 --> 01:05:15,079
you twenty eight for maybe an extra second or an

1292
01:05:15,079 --> 01:05:16,000
extra third round pick.

1293
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:19,199
Speaker 3: You never know who's gonna be. My opinion, the Texans

1294
01:05:19,199 --> 01:05:21,400
should trade at twenty eight, all right.

1295
01:05:23,159 --> 01:05:28,079
Speaker 1: Number two. I think Joe A Spotted Boys is gonna

1296
01:05:28,079 --> 01:05:33,760
have to change his mind. I think an opening day,

1297
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,519
I don't think we're gonna see it a lot. We're

1298
01:05:36,519 --> 01:05:38,360
gonna see it more than I thought we were going to.

1299
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:41,760
Speaker 2: If Es sac prett Is is still a part of

1300
01:05:41,760 --> 01:05:46,239
this Astros baseball team on opening Day, we're gonna see

1301
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:50,719
more yord and Alvarez in left field and more escac

1302
01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:55,119
prette is DH and the reason for that is, I

1303
01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:59,320
don't think the outfield offense is gonna bring training to

1304
01:05:59,400 --> 01:06:02,280
convince Joe to go with the original Plan A. He's

1305
01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:04,840
going to Plan B. Boys, he's gonna play on an

1306
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:05,920
overrez more in left field that.

1307
01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:09,320
Speaker 1: He wants to. Not because you're not gonna play left field.

1308
01:06:09,679 --> 01:06:11,840
It's because they don't want you. Suck predy that don't

1309
01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:12,199
line up.

1310
01:06:13,719 --> 01:06:16,920
Speaker 2: Number three, those of you that are hockey fans, and

1311
01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:20,440
I know we had some last week for one day,

1312
01:06:20,679 --> 01:06:23,559
my opinion is the earliest that hockey will ever come

1313
01:06:23,599 --> 01:06:25,280
to Houston will be twenty thirty two.

1314
01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:31,679
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a while. And number four, we briefly

1315
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:34,000
talked about this on Fargy Hockey thing.

1316
01:06:36,559 --> 01:06:38,239
Speaker 3: Why why twenty thirty two.

1317
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:41,199
Speaker 1: Because I'm just throwing a year out. It's gonna be years.

1318
01:06:41,199 --> 01:06:43,159
Speaker 3: It's just I guess the general point is it's gonna

1319
01:06:43,159 --> 01:06:45,239
be years. It's not gonna be anything too distant future.

1320
01:06:45,239 --> 01:06:47,679
I'm gonna say, I'll say distant future. I can even

1321
01:06:47,719 --> 01:06:50,079
get at of twenty thirty two if you want to. Okay,

1322
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:52,320
it's gonna be multiple years before we get.

1323
01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:57,679
Speaker 2: And we talked about this last this College Sports Commission

1324
01:06:57,679 --> 01:06:59,519
that President Trump is putting together with a bunch of

1325
01:06:59,519 --> 01:07:02,000
old ads and coaches and whatnot and players.

1326
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:07,039
Speaker 1: Hear about it, I'm gonna go worrd about it.

1327
01:07:07,039 --> 01:07:09,440
Speaker 2: If the President Trump is going to have a college

1328
01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:12,880
sports commission, it's gonna develop. It's gonna involve Nick Saban,

1329
01:07:13,039 --> 01:07:14,679
It's gonna involve Conna Lisa Rice.

1330
01:07:15,239 --> 01:07:18,119
Speaker 3: Oh really yeah, it's it's quite a it's quite a beaute.

1331
01:07:19,199 --> 01:07:21,239
Is Tommy Tubberville going to be involved.

1332
01:07:21,599 --> 01:07:23,679
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think he's busy running Mississippi.

1333
01:07:23,800 --> 01:07:28,159
Speaker 2: Okay, this College Sports Commission is ultimately the next year

1334
01:07:28,199 --> 01:07:30,119
gonna come out and say we need a salary cap

1335
01:07:30,199 --> 01:07:31,800
in in football.

1336
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:33,920
Speaker 1: And basketball within five years.

1337
01:07:34,679 --> 01:07:37,360
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna say this College Sports Commission is going

1338
01:07:37,400 --> 01:07:39,840
to ignite a fury that's going to give us a

1339
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:45,000
salary cap in those sports within five years, because I

1340
01:07:45,039 --> 01:07:47,480
think that they're thinking that this is out of control

1341
01:07:47,920 --> 01:07:49,840
and somebody has step in, and it's going to step

1342
01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:54,920
into be the government. H Okay, Okay, So let's recap

1343
01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,880
the four takes. These are opinions, not what I think.

1344
01:07:59,280 --> 01:08:01,960
Here we go, three I believe one I don't. Okay,

1345
01:08:02,719 --> 01:08:04,880
the Texans should trade out of the first round is one.

1346
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:06,360
Speaker 1: Number two.

1347
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:08,280
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna see way more yarn and Alvarez

1348
01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:10,000
in left field to start the year, provided that E's

1349
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:15,039
like Praide, it's still an astro. Number three not anytime

1350
01:08:15,199 --> 01:08:19,239
soon when we see hockey in Houston. And number four,

1351
01:08:19,239 --> 01:08:21,720
we're gonna see a salary cap in college athletics within

1352
01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:24,640
five years. Which one is a lie? Which one I'm

1353
01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:25,800
not telling the truth?

1354
01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:30,119
Speaker 1: One he's saying trade out of the first round. Yep,

1355
01:08:30,159 --> 01:08:33,479
he's said the Texans should trade out. Yep. I'm going

1356
01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:35,319
with one.

1357
01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:39,720
Speaker 3: So you're saying it's not your opinion that Praide should

1358
01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:41,640
h it's gonna be Joe a Spot of opinion. The

1359
01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:42,399
praidse is gonna deal.

1360
01:08:42,399 --> 01:08:49,840
Speaker 1: He's gonna have to change his mind. Hum man, this

1361
01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:50,520
is hard.

1362
01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:53,760
Speaker 3: That's why I'm going this is the College Sports Commission

1363
01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:56,039
is going to recommend a salary cap or they're going

1364
01:08:56,039 --> 01:08:57,600
to institute a salary cap.

1365
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:00,399
Speaker 1: Either way, both ways? Both ways. Yeah.

1366
01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:05,199
Speaker 3: Oh, we're gonna see the term salary cap in college

1367
01:09:05,239 --> 01:09:10,039
athletics being talked about.

1368
01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:12,680
Speaker 1: That's never happening.

1369
01:09:18,159 --> 01:09:21,039
Speaker 3: But also, I don't think Joe A Spot is going

1370
01:09:21,079 --> 01:09:22,680
to just all of a sudden change his mind. He's

1371
01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:24,600
been saying all off season he's doing everything in his

1372
01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:25,840
power to keep order on out.

1373
01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:30,560
Speaker 1: A left field hockey. I mean, I guess that's just

1374
01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:34,880
kind of okay whatever, if that's your opinion this week before,

1375
01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:37,760
are crazy our morning hot like we've got to get

1376
01:09:37,800 --> 01:09:38,640
hooky to use.

1377
01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:40,600
Speaker 3: To Well, that's because, yeah, Cole loves hockey.

1378
01:09:40,760 --> 01:09:45,079
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a while. Friend. Where is he from me?

1379
01:09:45,159 --> 01:09:48,199
Speaker 3: From like Memorial City or something? What's he love hockey for?

1380
01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:52,039
Speaker 1: I don't know? All right, hurry up, hurry up. Why

01:09:52,119 --> 01:09:54,439
we got time? We have the callers gotta get their

1382
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:55,279
answers into.

1383
01:09:57,319 --> 01:09:58,960
Speaker 3: Uh fine, I will go with.

1384
01:10:01,239 --> 01:10:05,199
Speaker 1: Two. You think I'm lying about Joe Spot I have now.

1385
01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:08,520
I think you're gonna be wrong about that if you

1386
01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:11,840
believe it, So okay, let's go with that, all right, Jonathan?

1387
01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:16,000
What do you say? One? Okay? All right? These are

1388
01:10:16,039 --> 01:10:17,319
strictly opinions of mine.

1389
01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:21,439
Speaker 3: Let's go Eddie on line five, Eddie, which one am

01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:29,479
are you saying that?

1393
01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:32,920
Speaker 3: I think we're gonna hear the word salary cap within

1394
01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:36,399
the next five years of college do you know what

1395
01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:38,119
I'm changing to that one? Yeah, I'm going to four.

1396
01:10:38,159 --> 01:10:44,720
I'm changing to four. Okay, Yeah, our phones are blipping,

1397
01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:48,000
so it's great Eddie. I think Eddie said four. Eddie

1398
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:48,319
said four.

1399
01:10:49,319 --> 01:10:52,560
Speaker 1: Michael in Spring, which one am I lying about? Definitely

1400
01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:53,279
going with two.

1401
01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:56,399
Speaker 5: I wasn't completely sold until Ross Ross just changed.

1402
01:10:56,439 --> 01:11:01,600
Speaker 3: So yeah, good job, Michael. I've been bad this year.

1403
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:06,479
Speaker 1: Scott. Which one am I lying about? I'm horrible at

1404
01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:07,560
this at the time.

1405
01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:09,439
Speaker 4: I always get them wrong, but I'm thinking lying about

1406
01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:10,680
the Texas the first one.

1407
01:11:11,079 --> 01:11:13,640
Speaker 1: Okay, that's number one, Thank you very much. Let's let's

1408
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:16,439
go to uh Mark on seven. Ony Mark? Which one

1409
01:11:16,439 --> 01:11:17,159
am I lying about?

1410
01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:21,720
Speaker 4: Gotta be number four? They're not gonna They're not going

1411
01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:22,079
to do.

1412
01:11:22,039 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 1: That, Okay, thank you very much. Let's go to John

1413
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:27,600
online too. John. Which one am I lying about?

1414
01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:28,640
Speaker 4: Man?

1415
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:30,720
Speaker 1: I had to go with two because you all right?

1416
01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:32,439
Speaker 4: Then no more being out built?

1417
01:11:34,159 --> 01:11:37,760
Speaker 1: Okay, I think he's thinking that. I don't think Albert

1418
01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:40,760
is more left field. Mike and Katie? Which one am

1419
01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:43,319
I lying about? Number four?

1420
01:11:43,359 --> 01:11:45,880
Speaker 4: Man College or the salary cup thing?

1421
01:11:47,479 --> 01:11:49,239
Speaker 1: Kay? There you go, thank you very much. All right,

1422
01:11:49,279 --> 01:11:51,159
here we go boys.

1423
01:11:51,239 --> 01:11:53,119
Speaker 3: Number one I do believe the Texans should trade out

1424
01:11:53,119 --> 01:11:55,760
of the first round. You've gotten rid of two more

1425
01:11:55,800 --> 01:11:58,560
offensive linemen. You need strengthen numbers.

1426
01:11:58,880 --> 01:12:01,079
Speaker 1: Because the reality is Nick Sarah's done a terrible drive

1427
01:12:01,079 --> 01:12:05,840
in drafting them, but we have no pigs. We're gonna

1428
01:12:06,399 --> 01:12:06,960
they want more.

1429
01:12:07,199 --> 01:12:10,199
Speaker 6: Okay, I'm not even gonna I'm not even gonna argue

1430
01:12:10,239 --> 01:12:10,439
with this.

1431
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:14,760
Speaker 1: Good. That's good.

1432
01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:20,359
Speaker 2: Number two hockey ain't coming anytime soon, everybody.

1433
01:12:20,359 --> 01:12:21,439
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to tell you that.

1434
01:12:23,359 --> 01:12:25,319
Speaker 2: And I'm taking the league, not necessarily from the two

1435
01:12:25,359 --> 01:12:28,000
different families here in town that have expressed some interest

1436
01:12:28,039 --> 01:12:30,600
in it, but Gary Bettman's did in no hurry for it.

1437
01:12:31,319 --> 01:12:33,520
Speaker 1: If we were gonna see expansion, and we would see

1438
01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:34,880
it in the next two to three.

1439
01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:38,039
Speaker 3: Years with new television deals coming into play, we're hearing

1440
01:12:38,039 --> 01:12:41,119
nothing about any of this stuff. So for those of

1441
01:12:41,159 --> 01:12:43,399
you that the nine of you that love hockey, that

1442
01:12:43,439 --> 01:12:45,479
tell us about this every single day about how hockey

1443
01:12:45,479 --> 01:12:48,039
would just beat some dominating in Houston, guess what, we

1444
01:12:48,079 --> 01:12:50,239
haven't heard word one about it since I don't know,

1445
01:12:50,399 --> 01:12:53,119
years ago, and the and the hockey team winning the

1446
01:12:53,119 --> 01:12:55,840
gold medal is not going to change that no time

1447
01:12:55,960 --> 01:13:02,760
anytime soon. Hockey appears in Houston, Texas. Coming down to

1448
01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:12,000
the last two, gentlemen, if Cam Smith and friends cannot hit,

1449
01:13:13,159 --> 01:13:16,000
you're not gonna let East like Pritts sit.

1450
01:13:16,000 --> 01:13:20,159
Speaker 1: The bench an opening day. I think Jordan Alvarez is

1451
01:13:20,159 --> 01:13:23,239
gonna play left field. Wow, Ross, I can't believe you

1452
01:13:23,319 --> 01:13:24,079
twitch your answer.

1453
01:13:24,239 --> 01:13:25,680
Speaker 3: I switched to the correct one.

1454
01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:29,800
Speaker 1: Ross wins. He got it right. There is no way

1455
01:13:29,840 --> 01:13:35,920
in the world. Yeah, that's right. I lied about that

1456
01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:45,520
number two. Yeah, yeah, Jonathan, l Jonathan, get back texting

1457
01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:49,359
your girl. You know what we need picks, Matt. I

1458
01:13:49,359 --> 01:13:53,560
want you to understand that picks. Yes, that's the reason

1459
01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:59,239
why we're training him. You're Yeah, it's gonna be a

1460
01:13:59,239 --> 01:13:59,640
different time.

1461
01:13:59,680 --> 01:14:01,560
Speaker 3: I don't think a spot is backing. I think you're

1462
01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:06,439
gonna well, I mean, because we nothing's changed except the guys.

1463
01:14:06,560 --> 01:14:09,359
Zach Cole's not hitting and Cam Spen's not hitting. It's

1464
01:14:09,359 --> 01:14:12,439
