1
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:08,240
Speaker 1: Lunchtimers. This is the Matt Thomas Show, one an Age Town.

2
00:00:08,439 --> 00:00:12,359
Good morning, everyone, and welcome to a Tuesday edition of

3
00:00:12,439 --> 00:00:14,199
The Matt Thomas Show with Ross.

4
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,079
Speaker 2: That's a Sports Talk seven ninety again.

5
00:00:17,839 --> 00:00:19,519
Speaker 1: Claramie Tucks will get it again.

6
00:00:21,399 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 3: What in that?

7
00:00:22,719 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 4: We'll start offers from the seventy eight. Yes, hiya bendy,

8
00:00:27,559 --> 00:00:31,239
let's still sur down. Illegal formation offense under seventy eight.

9
00:00:31,359 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: He did it again, his burns the time, let's go down.

10
00:00:34,439 --> 00:00:37,000
He did it again. Illegal formation seventy eight.

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 5: Offense from the seventy eight is n on the scrimbles.

12
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 1: That is five penalties called against Laramie Tunsil offense.

13
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 5: From the seventy eight.

14
00:00:44,719 --> 00:00:48,679
Speaker 1: Seventy their own, I stare down Holy cown with this

15
00:00:48,799 --> 00:00:51,520
left tackle bee Houston, Texas. All they do is commit

16
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,200
penalties first and foremost. You should go up to Laramie

17
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,719
Tunsil and just to make sure he's okay, not not

18
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,000
to be like you know, dog, all the penalties today

19
00:01:01,079 --> 00:01:01,840
or anything just.

20
00:01:01,719 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: For you, Okay, is everything?

21
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: Okay? Last time I saw you, you were shutting everybody down.

22
00:01:06,599 --> 00:01:09,599
But now Jeremy Tumpsall we had six penalties called against

23
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,000
him today and five were accepted. I mean, Pete not

24
00:01:13,159 --> 00:01:15,680
called games together for a long time. To Jay on

25
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,599
first down, here's the kid and they blow the play dead.

26
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,560
Looks like a false start of the Texans. Let's find

27
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:24,400
out who to board the.

28
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,359
Speaker 5: Snap fall start offense number seventy eight.

29
00:01:27,519 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: It's a five yard.

30
00:01:28,239 --> 00:01:30,239
Speaker 6: Penalty, still first when he got it out of the

31
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,120
way early lay every week though.

32
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,519
Speaker 1: I mean, you're a pro Bowl player. There's no excuse

33
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:36,920
for that.

34
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:39,239
Speaker 2: None.

35
00:01:39,359 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: Back to the fifteen week. Go bravo, bravo, bravo. You

36
00:01:52,680 --> 00:02:01,840
know what I deglaire I am now I'm Texas fan.

37
00:02:02,959 --> 00:02:11,879
Where by I don't go to teas. I don't go

38
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:18,919
to many camps. I take Tuesdays and Wednesdays off. Me me, me,

39
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:19,319
me me.

40
00:02:19,879 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 2: Domaiko says, get.

41
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:30,199
Speaker 1: Chance on town, oh Man, don't forget the constant false

42
00:02:30,199 --> 00:02:32,400
starts because he wants to keep his pressure rates.

43
00:02:32,199 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 2: Down and his mid run protection pass plucking.

44
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: I'll give it to you, Rossie, pro football focus, ain't lion.

45
00:02:40,439 --> 00:02:43,919
He's a pro bowler, Pro Bowlers. You had to play

46
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:49,800
in the tug of war. Thank you, Dimiico, Thank you Nick.

47
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,520
And by the way, I'm putting Dimico's name in front

48
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,639
of this every single time, because how many times have

49
00:02:56,759 --> 00:03:00,800
we heard sports RV that those two gentlemen Aco Ryans

50
00:03:00,879 --> 00:03:01,599
and Nick.

51
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 2: Casario are in unison.

52
00:03:06,039 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: This on the dounge with the same page trash offensive

53
00:03:11,159 --> 00:03:15,719
line to Miko's like, I can't possibly get rid of

54
00:03:15,759 --> 00:03:17,360
my best left tackle my Pro Bowl?

55
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 2: Oh yes I can. He wants a new contract.

56
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:26,719
Speaker 1: Imagine that being a mid offensive lineman. He's he's here

57
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:27,919
at the mid Pro Bowl.

58
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: Crap.

59
00:03:28,439 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: You get to play in that, You get to play

60
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,080
a game of flag football. He was named to the

61
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,360
Pro Bowl. He's not mid. That's ridiculous. He's a mid rusher.

62
00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:37,680
He's a mid leader. I can tell you that for sure.

63
00:03:38,599 --> 00:03:41,120
We can say that in a high octane false starter

64
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:47,800
an illegal formation guy. Seriously, Dexa's offensive life got worse.

65
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 2: Well guess the end today they just made another trade.

66
00:03:51,159 --> 00:03:53,280
They did They got rid of another offensive.

67
00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:56,639
Speaker 1: Liney within ten minutes. You know what Dimiko said, get

68
00:03:56,719 --> 00:04:02,919
your ass out of here, you trash offensive line. Demiko said, well, CJ,

69
00:04:03,719 --> 00:04:09,680
good luck. CJ has like thoughts and prayers. Kenyon Green Bye,

70
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:15,719
first round bus bye. This is by the way, this

71
00:04:15,759 --> 00:04:19,160
is on Demiko, not on. This is on Cassario. He's

72
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:25,240
having to fix what was a trash line that he created. So,

73
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,839
by the way, this is not a celebratory day. You

74
00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:31,480
seem to be celebrated. Well, I'm celebrating that somebody got

75
00:04:31,519 --> 00:04:33,759
in the building and said, all right, we gotta fix this.

76
00:04:35,519 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 2: ROSSI.

77
00:04:35,959 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 1: They're going to load up on lineman at the on

78
00:04:38,959 --> 00:04:41,120
the draft they have to, and they may be making

79
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,519
a free agent with who knows. But there was a

80
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,759
variety of layers to this and that's what we have

81
00:04:45,879 --> 00:04:47,720
until two o'clock today to go through.

82
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 2: All the layers, a full four hour show. Let's go.

83
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say this not that you should ever

84
00:04:57,639 --> 00:05:01,519
allow public opinion to determine whether or not a trade

85
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,959
is good or not, because ultimately the end result is

86
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,839
how does he perform in Washington and his CJ.

87
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:10,639
Speaker 2: Stroud not concussed.

88
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,399
Speaker 1: And we after we won. I mean that comes right

89
00:05:12,439 --> 00:05:15,000
down to that's gonna be real. Your pass protection got

90
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,240
worse that it did. Well, maybe it's actually it's a

91
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:25,120
net zero with Kenyon Green going, but with Gone it's worse.

92
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,959
They went into the Ivory Towers of Texanville. Okay, Cal

93
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,240
obviously was not there. He was busy playing video games.

94
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,480
He was there, he was playing video games. Yeah, he

95
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,839
was in a different room. Hannah's meanwhile talking with the

96
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,160
new team president about putting getting a new stadium bilt.

97
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,759
So she's busy. She's asking how much would it cost

98
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,839
to get a Nordstrom's in the stadium. That's right, so

99
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,600
she can go the cut off, knock out two birds

100
00:05:48,639 --> 00:05:54,480
of one stone, right exactly. So Casario and new offensive coordinator,

101
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,519
Nick Kayley, new offensive line coach, and Demiko they're in

102
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,480
this room. They shut the door, they put a padlock,

103
00:06:00,519 --> 00:06:02,399
and they put a big old fashioned do not disturb,

104
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:09,279
and they had some hard conversations. The realization was Larimie

105
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,680
was looking for a new deal, or we'll be looking

106
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,759
for a new deal and not too distant future. They

107
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,120
looked at the metrics of what the new offensive coaches

108
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,319
will do for this team. Could you live in a

109
00:06:21,439 --> 00:06:25,199
world without Laramie Tuncil protecting at the left tackle spot.

110
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,399
And the reality was adding the money that he spent

111
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,120
that he's costing you, and the thought he's going you're

112
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,399
potentially going to lose him for a compensatory pickup some

113
00:06:33,439 --> 00:06:36,639
sort in a year or so, and then you get

114
00:06:36,639 --> 00:06:39,959
to pick up some more mid round selections and the

115
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,800
fact that maybe they just needed a cleansing and sometimes ROSSI.

116
00:06:44,759 --> 00:06:49,120
As you know, anything in life, cleansings can hurt. For instance,

117
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,839
I'll give you an analogy. We go.

118
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 2: Goodness, gracious, stay with me on this.

119
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,959
Speaker 1: I'm so nervous for you. You're overweight now, I'm talking

120
00:06:57,959 --> 00:07:00,920
about you. Yeah, I am. It's okay, No, no, I mean

121
00:07:00,959 --> 00:07:04,360
I will this particularly, any particular person is in overweight

122
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,040
and you need to go on a diet. Uh huh.

123
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,720
Ten of those first handful of days when you are

124
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:14,079
used to eating cheeseburgers and pizza and French fries and donuts.

125
00:07:14,959 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 2: How bad are you hurting? Your stomach is.

126
00:07:17,959 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: Like, feed me, feed me. That's what CJ. Strouss gonna

127
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,360
be thinking about. I need offensive line protection. We're gonna

128
00:07:24,399 --> 00:07:26,240
give it to you. You gotta get past this first

129
00:07:26,279 --> 00:07:31,279
cleansing part. Like, for instance, unfortunately, alcoholics go through with

130
00:07:31,279 --> 00:07:36,839
withdrawal problems. So we're gonna have Texans online withdrawal. It's

131
00:07:36,879 --> 00:07:40,240
gonna hurt for a while, but you can chip with

132
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:44,000
extra tight ends. Oh my god, I mean, I'm just

133
00:07:44,079 --> 00:07:46,480
I'm just throwing us out here. Okay, this is a

134
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,879
bad analogy. It's wonderful. I'm sorry. The Texans needed a cleansing.

135
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:57,800
Withdrawal pains are coming and Cassario has got to fix it.

136
00:07:58,439 --> 00:08:02,160
He's already bumbled at once. A second time will cost

137
00:08:02,199 --> 00:08:06,000
his franchise even more. But at least they're looking at

138
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,759
the at least Tomko's like, man, Bra love you. We're

139
00:08:09,759 --> 00:08:13,560
in unison, me and you, Nikki are, but damn we're bad.

140
00:08:14,439 --> 00:08:16,199
I think, yeah, it just became to the point I'm

141
00:08:16,199 --> 00:08:18,319
gonna a different analogy, man than I think. It's probably better.

142
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,519
I'm going to tell you that whatever you say, it's

143
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,720
going to be better. And I fully accept that. I

144
00:08:22,759 --> 00:08:26,480
think Laraimie Tunsel was part of a team, and with

145
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,199
his production at a certain level, you can overlook awards.

146
00:08:29,279 --> 00:08:29,399
Speaker 7: Right.

147
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: Let's say, let's say Matt, you have a drinking problem,

148
00:08:33,519 --> 00:08:35,559
but you come here, you're you tended to, you do

149
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,440
a great job. Everything's great, but then at some point

150
00:08:38,519 --> 00:08:40,519
you start showing up late, you're not prepping as much.

151
00:08:40,879 --> 00:08:44,000
To a certain point, you can take Laraimie Tunzel doing

152
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,960
all the things you talked about. Not going to Ota

153
00:08:46,039 --> 00:08:47,919
is not being a team player. Worried about only his

154
00:08:48,039 --> 00:08:50,960
stats and and that's it, and not being part of

155
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,600
this Texans culture that Demico Ryans is trying to set.

156
00:08:53,879 --> 00:08:58,159
But when you get the production level doesn't meet the headaches.

157
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,600
Decision was made and that's the decision that they made.

158
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,559
And by the way, there are guys in the Texas

159
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,600
locker room that like him. Yes, Titus Howard one of them.

160
00:09:10,639 --> 00:09:13,399
Titus Howard being one of them. Joe Mixon went on

161
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,720
his Instagram, I mean he's I don't think Jil lammering

162
00:09:16,759 --> 00:09:19,519
Tunsel was a bad human being. I don't think he

163
00:09:19,639 --> 00:09:21,919
is malicious. I don't think he is trying to hurt

164
00:09:21,919 --> 00:09:23,399
the team. I think when he won't he gets out

165
00:09:23,399 --> 00:09:25,279
there in plays, he plays hard and wants to win.

166
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,799
But how badly does he want to win? How badly

167
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,080
does he want to be a leader. This is one

168
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,000
of the whole things every year when these fake media

169
00:09:35,039 --> 00:09:37,600
people who slurp up everything the Texans give to you

170
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,679
in terms of well, we just named our captains today.

171
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,360
Lamary Townsend was a captain, but he wasn't really a captain.

172
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,480
He had to be a captain because he was one

173
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,639
of the veteran players on the team. What kind of

174
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,039
optics would it have been. If the Bros would not

175
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,440
have hired elected him captain for all the years he's

176
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,240
been in the NFL, it would have looked terrible. I

177
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,240
don't think the players care about that. No, the optics,

178
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,840
I'm disagreeing with. The optics will look bad if Laramie

179
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,120
Tunzel was not named a captain and they had.

180
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,799
Speaker 2: To do it by default. So Dalton Schultze sitting there

181
00:10:05,799 --> 00:10:06,000
like man.

182
00:10:06,039 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: If I don't vote Laramie Tunsel, though, the nation's gonna

183
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,519
get really mad at me. So I'm gonna vote la

184
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,799
Dalton Schultz the whole nation. The nation won't care. I'm

185
00:10:13,799 --> 00:10:18,519
just saying that you sometimes put people in I look,

186
00:10:18,519 --> 00:10:20,000
I've seen anything in club sports.

187
00:10:20,039 --> 00:10:21,159
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't mean.

188
00:10:22,639 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 1: It's happening, and it happens in club sports. Can those

189
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,120
of you who competed in high school and in club

190
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,159
sports you know what I'm talking about. Sometimes you have

191
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,080
to default to a captain who's been there, done that

192
00:10:32,159 --> 00:10:34,480
over the years because you don't want the smoke that

193
00:10:34,519 --> 00:10:36,399
comes with, oh you don't think I'm a captain, I

194
00:10:36,399 --> 00:10:39,200
will watch me. Now. You had to make him a captain,

195
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:40,919
But that's really not even that big of a deal.

196
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,200
The reality is this. He might have been named a captain,

197
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,279
but he wasn't ever acting like a captain. He was

198
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,080
acting like a very good NFL player. But at the

199
00:10:51,159 --> 00:10:53,480
end of the day, if they wins, he wins, he loses.

200
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,360
It's okay, I got my paycheck, m hm. And that's

201
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:57,960
how I see it. I could be wrong, but that's

202
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,360
how I see it. No, I mean, obviously, the the

203
00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:04,840
reason if everything was harmonious culture wise with Laraimie Tunsil,

204
00:11:04,919 --> 00:11:08,480
he produces enough to keep him here. And here's the

205
00:11:08,519 --> 00:11:13,480
numb one thing, real quick, ROSSI Uh. Dimico could have said, no, no, no,

206
00:11:13,759 --> 00:11:16,440
I know you've goofed this up, nikky. See, but that's

207
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,360
my guy, that's my that's my left tackle. That's the

208
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,559
most important that's my second most important position on the

209
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:23,600
team behind quarterback.

210
00:11:24,919 --> 00:11:26,799
Speaker 2: Why would I get rid of a Pro Bowl tackle?

211
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: Guess what?

212
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,399
Speaker 2: Guess what? Dimico didn't say what I just said.

213
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 1: He didn't say that. So are we either overrating the

214
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:36,519
left tackle position, which I don't think we are. No,

215
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,000
we're overrating the real true value of Laramie Tunzel to

216
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,320
the Houston Texans. We will discuss Taxan has made another

217
00:11:44,799 --> 00:11:48,039
offensive lied trade like twelve minutes ago before the show started.

218
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:52,200
ROSSI and we're getting a safety So Jimmy Ward, good

219
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,240
knowing you. Seven one three two one two five seven

220

feel excuse me, eleven thirty. We've got feelings. We have

222
00:12:01,039 --> 00:12:03,399
the news at noon, we have NFL rewan at twelve thirty.

223
00:12:03,519 --> 00:12:05,840
Hell that NFL rewind may go from twelve thirty to one.

224
00:12:05,919 --> 00:12:06,159
Speaker 2: Ross.

225
00:12:06,159 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 1: All these moves going on, yes, including what the Texans

226
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,879
are doing, but ultimately here is the core question. Can

227
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:18,919
seech you sort of stroud to survive this season? And

228
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,600
we better spend a lot of time looking at first

229
00:12:21,639 --> 00:12:23,559
run off fits of alignment because the Texans are going

230
00:12:23,639 --> 00:12:26,840
to have to take one period end of story. They've

231
00:12:26,879 --> 00:12:29,440
got to replenish and they got to pray this guy can.

232
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:30,600

Speaker 8: Matt Thomas Ross VIREL. It's the Matt Thomas Show with

253
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:46,240
Ross on Sports Talk seven ninety.

254
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 1: There's a lot of things going on in the world. Okay,

255
00:13:49,799 --> 00:13:54,320
we have the Texans making two offensive line trades and

256
00:13:54,399 --> 00:13:57,480
releasing another one. We have the Texans adding like seven

257
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,440
more wide receivers to their core, which only half of

258
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,600
them stick around. We had the rockets last night, beating

259
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,480
the uh hated Orlando Magic hated. But all that pales

260
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,320
in comparison to what are you doing? Dark Breast airlines?

261
00:14:11,639 --> 00:14:12,279
What happened?

262
00:14:12,399 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 2: They're charging bags and into May.

263
00:14:14,399 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, didn't we know that was coming because we knew.

264
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 2: About the assigned seats. We didn't know about the bag change.

265
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,279
Speaker 1: And they got bought by some capital venture drag, I

266
00:14:21,279 --> 00:14:26,559
mean not venture capital, but yeah, yeah, little marketing one

267
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,440
on one. I know, the dark Breast in the Avery

268
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,279
towers are like man, people will get pissed about it,

269
00:14:31,279 --> 00:14:34,360
but they'll still fly us. I don't know, all right,

270
00:14:36,559 --> 00:14:39,120
You're still gonna win with the low fares, but the

271
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,879
dark press the little fairs aren't as like dark. They're not

272
00:14:41,919 --> 00:14:45,679
as low as like more lower than a Barrican or schmided.

273
00:14:45,919 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 2: I would say.

274
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 1: A handful of times, if not more, percent of the

275
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,600
time that I travel, I end up factoring in those

276
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,000
bags and choosing Southwest.

277
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:57,759
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.

278
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: That's incentivized me multiple times to use Southwest over United See.

279
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,600
I think what you do is you just trickle the

280
00:15:05,639 --> 00:15:07,759
far up a little bit. If you're looking to add

281
00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:09,919
a little bit of money, and you can say, well,

282
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,840
you're not gonna be as competitive as say Relta, Well

283
00:15:12,919 --> 00:15:15,200
guess what when Relta sells out at seats, you're gonna

284
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,320
go to the next lowest. I think that the bags

285
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,200
fly free was a huge marketing, big time. We're different

286
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,360
than the competitors. I guess this is really gonna hurt

287
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:30,159
Dark Breast. Yeah, we don't have to talk too much

288
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,519
about this, but I yeah, I think every company, it

289
00:15:32,559 --> 00:15:36,919
seems like every subscription service is going up. Every airline

290
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,080
prices are going up. And we don't even have to

291
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:44,440
talk about grocery prices and stuff. And we got rid

292
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,919
of our eggs are going up, more expensive, our cast

293
00:15:47,039 --> 00:15:49,240
is going up. We got Dark Breast charging for bags.

294
00:15:49,279 --> 00:15:51,919
What's next? Ross, I don't know, let me want to

295
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:57,559
think about it. Texans Uh posted at nine to thirty

296
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,159
this morning from Adam Schefter, a choir safety ce J

297
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,799
Gardner Johnson he's a dash guy from the Eagles. In

298
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:09,480
exchange dash no Gardner dash Johnson okay, in exchange for

299
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,879
former first round pick Kenyon Green. Trade includes a pick swap,

300
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,000
the Eagles getting a twenty twenty sixth fifth round pick.

301
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:23,039
The Texans getting a twenty twenty six sixth looks like

302
00:16:23,279 --> 00:16:25,159
the Eagles trying to shave money for an older guy.

303
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,480
Is that what it looks like? I think so salary

304
00:16:27,559 --> 00:16:30,440
dump two years, nineteen million dollars remaining on a contract

305
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:36,080
for CJ. Gardner Johnson they just paid six. Sequan Hurts

306
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,600
already has a big contract. Yep.

307
00:16:37,919 --> 00:16:40,639
Speaker 2: AJ Brown's making a lot of money. Oh yeah, you know.

308
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,679
Speaker 1: What, as we talked about on the show yesterday, Rossie,

309
00:16:42,759 --> 00:16:44,279
you just can't pay everybody.

310
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 2: Something is going to suffer.

311
00:16:46,279 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: Lane Johnson has to be making a lot of money. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

312
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,600
Good thing is they just won the Super Bowl, so well,

313
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,279
this immediately makes a Texans corner secondary significantly. I mean

314
00:16:56,279 --> 00:16:59,720
this is a and again Kenyon Green? How me out

315
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,000
what can Green? What would appeal to the Eagles for

316
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:08,039
Kenyan Green? Of all people? And that sucks? Yeah? Nice? Great,

317
00:17:08,039 --> 00:17:11,480
guy's been amazing. I mean they they must see untapped potent.

318
00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:14,759
I guess I get I'm the cheap first round cheap guy.

319
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,279
I mean, I don't know, I don't know. Yeah, I

320
00:17:16,279 --> 00:17:17,799
was gonna like, it's not the NBA. You don't have

321
00:17:17,839 --> 00:17:22,759
to match money. Nope, Nope, you don't. It is really

322
00:17:22,799 --> 00:17:28,599
really odd. I don't know most mostly so maybe they're

323
00:17:28,599 --> 00:17:30,480
gonna cut Kenyon Green and it's a salary dump. I

324
00:17:30,519 --> 00:17:32,079
don't know. If you guys want to join us today

00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,319
seven nine zero. So I've already portrayed it as there

330
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:53,880
was a deep conversation involving the older newall line coach,

331
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,119
the new offensive coordinator, Demico, and Nick in the room

332
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:02,759
of the door. Shut pretty ballsy for that, those two

333
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:07,599
offensive coaches and that head coach to go. We have

334
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,440
a prize quarterback. We got to keep him up right.

335
00:18:10,559 --> 00:18:13,960
We didn't do a good job of it, and we're

336
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,200
gonna blow this thing up. It's it's Is it like

337
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,799
blowing up a pitching rotation? Is it like pitch? Is

338
00:18:19,799 --> 00:18:22,000
it like blowing up in the middle endfield? Is it

339
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,599
harder the order? I mean, what what what's the parallel

340
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,519
on this? Yeah, it would be like saying we need

341
00:18:26,599 --> 00:18:28,960
starting pitching help and then stay and then trading your

342
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:29,519
best pitcher.

343
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:31,759
Speaker 2: That's what they did.

344
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,079
Speaker 1: Now, now your best picture, by the way, three guy

345
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,039
or number two, maybe he's not an ace. Your best

346
00:18:36,039 --> 00:18:38,119
pitcher is seventeen and thirteen in the area of four

347
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,640
and a half. No, not that bad. He made it.

348
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,559
He was selected to a Pro Bowl. I don't I'm

349
00:18:43,559 --> 00:18:47,759
not using that. Everybody has seen him. I'm using that

350
00:18:47,839 --> 00:18:51,000
to tell you he's not terrible. Okay, seventeen thirteen is

351
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,559
not terrible. Four fifty era.

352
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 2: Okay, excuse me, three ninety eightyr not terrible. That's better.

353
00:18:57,759 --> 00:18:59,880
We're getting a little bit. I'm getting closer.

354
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:06,319
Speaker 1: Uh huh. This is about performance, This is about finances,

355
00:19:06,599 --> 00:19:10,000
This is about culture. Culture. This is not a under

356
00:19:10,079 --> 00:19:13,880
no circumstance. Was Laramie tunseel a glue guy? I think

357
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:19,559
this is about And you know, we played those postseason

358
00:19:19,799 --> 00:19:23,920
comments from Demico Ryans talking about people that want to

359
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:25,920
be here, people that want to play football, and Matt

360
00:19:26,079 --> 00:19:29,319
credit to you. When he made those comments, you were like,

361
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,799
is he calling out Laramie Tunsell? Yeah, you said that,

362
00:19:32,279 --> 00:19:35,000
And it sounds like after the fact now that that

363
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,519
absolutely is the case that he is trying to set

364
00:19:38,559 --> 00:19:41,039
a culture of people who love football and people who

365
00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:43,720
want to be here. DA was not part of part

366
00:19:43,759 --> 00:19:48,279
of that, and Larimie tunsel as I said, the amount

367
00:19:48,279 --> 00:19:50,480
of production. With a certain amount of production, you can

368
00:19:50,559 --> 00:19:53,920
live with that. But he hit the threshold to where

369
00:19:54,079 --> 00:19:57,519
the Texans said, you're not that productive to be acting

370
00:19:57,559 --> 00:20:00,559
like this. We're gonna ship you. And by the way,

371
00:20:00,759 --> 00:20:04,400
you're selling high to get a certain level of value back.

372
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,720
It's obviously not what they paid. What was it two

373
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,359
first round picks to get Laramy Tunsel here and insane

374
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,720
amount of money. And again he I want to make

375
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,359
sure him fair on this because I don't know. This

376
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,559
is not gonna be one hundred percent bashing of Laramie.

377
00:20:16,559 --> 00:20:21,279
But the reality is he dictated the market because he

378
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,160
was the best at his position and the timing was right,

379
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,720
and he was able to negotiate a deal with with

380
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,319
perhaps the worst administration in the history of the National

381
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,359
Football League. Well maybe Matt Millan was the worst of

382
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,079
the Lions, but Bill O'Brien is not a far second place,

383
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,920
So kudos to him for negotiating what he's able to negotiate.

384
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,759
Over the years, he's meant a lot of money. He

385
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,359
is recognized as one of the better offensive linemen in

386
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:51,839
the league. But there were there are intangibles with any profession,

387
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,960
with any walk of life, in any business, and when

388
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,599
you are trying to get over the hump and trying

389
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,519
to recreate who what you are as an organization, whether

390
00:21:01,559 --> 00:21:05,359
it's a sales force, whether it's on the pipeline, whether

391
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,640
it's on an NFL offensive line. If you're gonna put

392
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,200
a lot of money and a lot of faith behind somebody,

393
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,039
you better want to make sure the guy loves what

394
00:21:14,079 --> 00:21:16,880
he does and wants to do everything within his power

395
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,440
to make sure he is a leader both on and

396
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:22,160
off the field. It's not fifty percent of the responsibility,

397
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,279
but it's a good junk memory Tuncil just wants to play.

398
00:21:26,039 --> 00:21:29,000
Nothing else he wants to do. And these bogus, Well

399
00:21:29,039 --> 00:21:30,599
he tooked the young players, well, of course he did.

400
00:21:30,599 --> 00:21:32,519
He didn't walk in the room, put his uniform on

401
00:21:32,599 --> 00:21:36,160
and go out. He talked not a bad guy, just

402
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,039
not the guy. And then when you couple that with

403
00:21:40,079 --> 00:21:43,279
all the offensive false start issues and formations, was by

404
00:21:43,279 --> 00:21:45,000
the way, to his credit, got better in the second

405
00:21:45,039 --> 00:21:45,400
half of the.

406
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 2: Year, thank goodness. Well It couldn't get worse. It couldn't

407
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:49,480
possibly get worse.

408
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 1: This is once again Tomko saying I am an NFL player.

409
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,599
I've been that was he playing in the league ten years,

410
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,599
give or take. Yes, I know what I want in

411
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:08,720
my room and Laramie Tunsel was expendable. Bravo Texans. I'm

412
00:22:08,799 --> 00:22:12,519
just saying a small prayer for for CJ.

413
00:22:12,599 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 2: Stroud.

414
00:22:13,559 --> 00:22:16,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, this upcoming year will be his tenth NFL season.

415
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,440
A lot of value back. He's getting longer in the tooth,

416
00:22:22,519 --> 00:22:24,920
the production has slipped, and he wants a new contract.

417
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:26,640
Isn't a culture fit wants a new contract?

418
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 2: You add it all up.

419
00:22:27,759 --> 00:22:30,079
Speaker 1: I get it. I was very surprised when I first

420
00:22:30,079 --> 00:22:34,359
saw it, but I wouldn't say it was complete shock.

421
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,920
Your reactions welcome now. Seven one three two one two

422
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,400
five seven nine zero seven one three two one two

423
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,000
five seven nine zero. He was a good player for

424
00:22:48,039 --> 00:22:52,680
the Houston Texans for a significant period of time. Was

425
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,839
he ever elite at both at what it took to

426
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:59,680
be a completely lead offensive lineman. No, run protection numbers

427
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,799
were not good, his penalty count was high, and his

428
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:10,119
leadership mid at best, missing OTAs, missing mini camps, taking

429
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,400
extra days off in the year for veteran days off.

430
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:17,119

Speaker 8: Back to battle Red Ross and Liberty white Ass Matt Thomas,

451
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:28,720
what is what I am? Real pale Texans talk continued

452
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,680
spawn them, Matt Thomas, show what a.

453
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 7: Ten?

454
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:43,799
Speaker 1: Thirty five? Two fifths actually here? Including uh, who was

455
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,000
we lost last week? I'm turning to John A Blank,

456
00:24:46,079 --> 00:24:48,440
these Offen Tech, Mace, Shack Mason. Three fifths of these

457
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,119
Texans starting line?

458
00:24:50,559 --> 00:24:50,839
Speaker 3: All right?

459
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,799
Speaker 2: Ken you Reen? And did he not started that place?

460
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 1: He started at the beginning of the season, So I

461
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,839
wanna say for week one started, Yeah, three fifths of

462
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,440
the core of the earth half of the core of

463
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,400
the Texans offensive line is not gone. You went into

464
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:08,240
the season with it being Laramie Tunsel, right, Kenyon Green,

465
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,400
who was supposed to be Juice Grugg Scruggs, Jack Mason

466
00:25:12,559 --> 00:25:16,720
Titus because Blake Fisher was your swing rookie just drafted

467
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,880
me right, right, So this is going to be a

468
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,960
lot on Blake Fisher, who was horrible to start the season,

469
00:25:23,039 --> 00:25:25,240
got a lot better. I think you just need to

470
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,400
get strong. I think he was getting overpowered a lot.

471
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,079
And the fact is he will see a second round pick, right, Yeah,

472
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,319
he's the second round pick. Ross he's got to deliver.

473
00:25:32,599 --> 00:25:35,319
He does, or Cassario fails again. Casari has to hit

474
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,960
on that he obviously grites. I mean you we were

475
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,279
talking about how basically it's a bus with Kenyon Green

476
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,440
before the season, it was very apparently a bust afterwards,

477
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,119
and now that he's gone, you wasted a first round

478
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:50,079
pick on at the guard position. Would they take him

479
00:25:50,079 --> 00:25:52,279
fifteen or sixteen and we can trade it up for him?

480
00:25:52,279 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 2: Correct?

481
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 1: I think so that are traded too high for him?

482
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,319
Basically one of the two either way. This isn't this

483
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:03,920
is again this, this is Dimico going Nikki, I know

484
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,359
what you did and let by ganzi bygones because I

485
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,000
wasn't here when you made these deals.

486
00:26:09,559 --> 00:26:14,279
Speaker 2: We got to fix this because there was something.

487
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 1: We continued to hear over and over again at the combine,

488
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:22,839
end of season, press availability, media shows. Whatever is that

489
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:28,000
Nick Casario and Demico Ryans are in Unison and ross.

490
00:26:28,039 --> 00:26:29,960
There are a lot of things that people in sports

491
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:31,519
lightly about. I don't think they were lying. I think

492
00:26:31,519 --> 00:26:34,480
they're probably. I think they do have an excellent working relationship,

493
00:26:34,519 --> 00:26:36,079
because if they didn't, we'd find out about it.

494
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:37,599
Speaker 2: We'd have people.

495
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: The whisper whisper it would be in the wind as

496
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,839
it were. Yeah, yeah, I think they are working together.

497
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,920
I think so too. I think they were in step

498
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:51,440
on this question. It was do you call CJ as

499
00:26:51,519 --> 00:26:53,720
is this happening? Or do you call them before it

500
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:58,319
becomes public? Stroud, You gotta let them know. Hey, CIJ,

501
00:26:58,839 --> 00:27:01,559
how's it going. Yeah, we told you we were gonna

502
00:27:01,559 --> 00:27:06,599
improve the offensive line. We're trading Laramie Tunseil. Sorry what

503
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,880
I'm sorry, my brain fog from all the concussions I'm suffering.

504
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,359
Are is just cleared? Can you say that again? Everybody,

505
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,519
by the way, has been trying to dissect everything that

506
00:27:14,599 --> 00:27:17,599
CJ has said over the last couple of months. There

507
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,559
is okay, zero Laramie Tunseil conversation hmm okay.

508
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,519
Speaker 2: And by the way, we need to also think about this.

509
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,599
Speaker 1: You got some guys, guys you get you just you're

510
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:27,559

511
00:27:27,839 --> 00:27:30,279
Well Anderson Junior is looking for money and Derek's thing

512
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,480
is looking for a lot of money, as he should

513
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,599
as a first team all pro. I can't you know

514
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,640

00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 9: Are you?

518
00:27:43,839 --> 00:27:44,640
Speaker 1: Are you a Texans fan?

519
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 7: For real?

520
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:50,640
Speaker 1: I am a fan of this move. I am very

521
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,440
happy that I wasn't the only one that saw what

522
00:27:53,519 --> 00:27:55,240
everything else what everybody else is saying.

523
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,839
Speaker 2: I'm closer, let's go. I'm all the way there yet.

524
00:27:58,920 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 1: We want you.

525
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:00,319
Speaker 2: We need me say this.

526
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:05,079
Speaker 1: If the Cougars win the National Championship, what I'll explain

527
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:11,279
because because my life has been full of sports despair. Okay,

528
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,519
so if I get elation, all right, you don't want

529
00:28:13,519 --> 00:28:14,640
to take on more despair?

530
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,839
Speaker 2: Correct? I get you? Okay, I think that's fair.

531
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: Huh. So the Cougars win the National Championship, right, I'll

532
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,480
become a full fledged Texans fan. M So it's like

533
00:28:25,519 --> 00:28:27,519
you're a parent in a house and then there's some

534
00:28:27,599 --> 00:28:29,519
screw up cousin. They're like, hey, can he live with you?

535
00:28:29,559 --> 00:28:32,200
And you're like, no, I'm good. But if things get better,

536
00:28:32,279 --> 00:28:33,839
then you'll take on the screw up cousin.

537
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 2: It's not bad.

538
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,119
Speaker 10: Or here.

539
00:28:44,079 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 2: I saw your gears turned. I was like, what is

540
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:46,839
he doing?

541
00:28:48,079 --> 00:28:51,519
Speaker 1: If your daughter gets a scholarship to play college sports, Okay,

542
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:52,880
I'll help her buy a new car.

543
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,759
Speaker 2: Okay, you can reallocate the funds elsewhere. Yes, okay. The

544
00:28:57,839 --> 00:28:59,920
problem was that daughter of mine.

545
00:29:00,079 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 1: Decided to go first far as humanly possible for me.

546
00:29:03,519 --> 00:29:04,920
She's gonna be a three and a half hour flat

547
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,400
away from me, and then it's an hour fifty minute

548
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,039
drive after that. I think my nag is better.

549
00:29:10,519 --> 00:29:13,119
Speaker 2: Nothing, no hungry. I'm just saying we maybe.

550
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 1: I think you and I need to do shows in

551
00:29:14,519 --> 00:29:16,720
Boston about every three to four weeks.

552
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:18,559
Speaker 2: Don't even get me started.

553
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,759
Speaker 1: Israel or is Israel, East Rael, Israel A ten to

554
00:29:24,799 --> 00:29:27,119
forty on the Matt Thomas showed Ross East Rayel a

555
00:29:27,119 --> 00:29:34,279
good morning and now and now and now and now

556
00:29:34,799 --> 00:29:41,640
the obligatory Laramie Tunsil falls start call.

557
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 11: I mean, okay, we want to think about it. Counsel

558
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,079
was the best office of lineman that they had, and

559
00:29:49,119 --> 00:29:52,160
that's why Washington winning gave him. He's in a better

560
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,400
position with a better franchise. If he's going to tack

561
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,680
a city with Magic Johnson one of the owners, and

562
00:29:58,759 --> 00:30:02,160
he was in the of the NFC Championship game, and

563
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,200
they're gonna go there again. Only thing that's bad about

564
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,640
it is that they're going into a tough division here

565
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,240
is the South ALC South is kind of kind of weak.

566
00:30:12,559 --> 00:30:15,839
Other than that mixing, don't like to trade. Yeah, y'all

567
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,559
want this leader, locker room kind of quiet guys.

568
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:20,519
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no.

569
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,759
Speaker 11: You can't win with guys like that. You need some

570
00:30:23,799 --> 00:30:26,480
guys with some edge to him, and he is one

571
00:30:26,519 --> 00:30:29,160
of them guys. And they're gonna regret it because the

572
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,319
press when once they start losing, y'all go, y'all gonna

573
00:30:32,359 --> 00:30:34,480
dog them out. But one thing about the media and

574
00:30:34,799 --> 00:30:37,319
Chocolate City, they're a little bit there, a little bit more.

575
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: What you call Chocolate City d C is chocolate.

576
00:30:41,839 --> 00:30:44,519
Speaker 11: To anybody with the Brothers know it. You know you

577
00:30:44,599 --> 00:30:47,200
ever I forgot with how you just laving yourself, DC

578
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,400
is called Chapling City and that's just a fact. And

579
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,720
he's gonna be welcomed there and the new Press is

580
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,319
gonna show him some love. And he going there with

581
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,160
Magic Johnson, one of the owners. And Magic is the winner,

582
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,079
like he did with the Dodgers and what they did

583
00:30:59,119 --> 00:31:02,279
with the Lakers and doing a DC too. So bless

584
00:31:02,359 --> 00:31:04,799
his talk, and I'm glad he went that. Even though

585
00:31:04,799 --> 00:31:06,720
I mess with the Texas School, that's it.

586
00:31:07,559 --> 00:31:09,119
Speaker 1: By the way. For those of you that don't know

587
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,799
Israel mentioning, Washington, d C. Is a chocolate city, Ai says.

588
00:31:13,799 --> 00:31:15,640
The nickname was given to the city by a popular

589
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:21,200
funk song back in nineteen seventy three. And we'll come

590
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:21,759
back with it.

591
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 2: What's the name of the song?

592
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. Chocolate City. No is Salt Lake City,

593
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:37,079
Bread Pudding City. Washington, DC known as Chocolate City because

594
00:31:37,079 --> 00:31:42,799
of its large black population and significant African American culture. Hmm, it,

595
00:31:42,839 --> 00:31:47,039
says Ai. Chocolate City was It was an album by Parliament.

596
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,640
Oh okay, can we play the number one song off

597
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:54,880

599
00:31:56,799 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 2: Help me.

600
00:31:57,599 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if they had a

601
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,480
number one hit maybe maybe.

602
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 2: Their most recognizable hit, flash Flashlight.

603
00:32:04,759 --> 00:32:07,079
Speaker 1: Was great Maggot Brain. Oh my god, if you the

604
00:32:07,119 --> 00:32:10,839
Maga Brain album is fantastic Doctor Funkenstein. That's kind of

605
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,920
Parliament slash fun. Yeah, I mean it's George Clinton and oh,

606
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,400
let's play it then. But they had a bunch of

607
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,079
different names there were Parliament because they were going they

608
00:32:18,079 --> 00:32:19,759
were getting a legal problems with a bunch of different

609
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,599
record labels or something like that. There was Parliament, Funkadelic,

610
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,519
then there was Funkadelic, then there was Parliament. George Clinton

611
00:32:25,559 --> 00:32:28,400
was like mixing around, and Bootsy Collins of course, was

612
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,960
in the bank, as you know, Matt. Yeah, I thought

613
00:32:31,039 --> 00:32:33,039
Chocolate City was that place where you get to put

614
00:32:33,039 --> 00:32:35,680
the at the moulda morale. You put sticking like a

615
00:32:35,759 --> 00:32:38,440
lady finger of bread in the chocolate thing machine. What

616
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:42,200
you know a little fountain of chocolate. No, did you

617
00:32:42,279 --> 00:32:44,880
ever do the molda morale chocolate fountain?

618
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 10: No?

619
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:46,599
Speaker 2: You stick fruit in there and you get it all

620
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:47,799
covered in chocolate.

621
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: Flesh eating bacteria in there. All right, that's all I

622
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,640
can eat. Cirlondon Stace's probably not. Please don't come after me,

623

By the way, I'm driving my daughter's car today.

00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:15,679
Speaker 1: You're in the bug.

710
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:16,639
Speaker 2: I'm in the bug today.

711
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:17,199
Speaker 1: Nice?

712
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 2: How that happened because it.

713
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 1: Was she was It was near the trash can, so

714
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:21,639
I decided to move and I'm like, you know, I'm

715
00:37:21,639 --> 00:37:24,280
taking your car today. By that's funny. She's the like anyway,

716
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,760
So enjoying the little spring break. Mm hmm. So if

717
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,960
you see a very handsome bald man in a yellow

718
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,480
bug driving down fifty nine, that are you dropping the top? Yeah? Nice?

719
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,679
Oh yeah, seventy eight degrees by the time show's over. Oh,

720
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:42,039
hell yeah, like that. Listen to eighteen. Oh good, all right,

721
00:37:42,039 --> 00:37:43,880
back on the phone. So we go, by the way,

722
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:47,320
A lot of folks are not echoing the is is

723
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:51,039
Israel or is my l's Israel sentiment about how Magic

724
00:37:51,159 --> 00:37:54,599
Johnson is super happy about Laramie Tunsel joining the commanders.

725
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,519
I think he is. I think the commanders are happy.

726
00:37:57,079 --> 00:37:59,480
I don't think they're displeased the texting. This is the

727
00:37:59,599 --> 00:38:01,840
this is a fact. The Texans got worse on the

728
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,480
field and the commander's got better on the field.

729
00:38:03,679 --> 00:38:04,199
Speaker 2: Don't the fact.

730
00:38:04,199 --> 00:38:06,639
Speaker 1: I don't think you can argue it. But short term

731
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,760
there has to be a plan in place, and I

732
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,599
think it obviously is going to be heavy, heavy line

733
00:38:14,679 --> 00:38:18,920
consideration of the draft. Okay, I guess you know we

734
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:20,360
always do like a little draft contest.

735
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:20,760
Speaker 2: Ross.

736
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:23,079
Speaker 1: Maybe the question would be what point do the Texan

737
00:38:23,199 --> 00:38:26,079
not not draft alignment they should take six of them

738
00:38:26,159 --> 00:38:29,960
or however many picks I got. Now, I bet we

739
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:31,800
can do a question how many alignment of the text

740
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,880
is going to take between linemen and tight ends? Two?

741
00:38:36,119 --> 00:38:38,320
I bet you think go more than that. Okay, there's

742
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,719
a shot at three, there's a shot. There's a shot

743
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,199
to be okay with it too. They need they need

744
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,719
replenishing and cheaper. By the way, this also signals to

745
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,719
me that their believers in Blake Fisher. Yeah, or they

746
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,039
have to be.

747
00:38:51,559 --> 00:38:53,400
Speaker 2: Because right now he's your starting to left tack or

748
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:54,400
is it you move over?

749
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: Uh?

750
00:38:56,559 --> 00:39:00,199
Speaker 2: Titus Howard? What is what does our lads have on

751
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,039
their depth chart? Because our lives always pretty.

752
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: Good, don't know? They always have pop ups and try

753
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:04,760
to make me pay for their Now sick of those

754
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,320
pop ups. Let's talk to Ed and Houston at ten

755
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,440
fifty four on the Matt Thomas Show at ross Ed,

756
00:39:09,519 --> 00:39:12,280
good morning, Hey, what's up?

757
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:12,519
Speaker 3: Man?

758
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,280
Speaker 12: I was just I had come in right on the

759
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,159
tail end of y'all talking about Chocolate City and deifok,

760
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,400
and I just so happened to have worked on George

761
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,039
Clinton's management team for about ten years.

762
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 1: Wow.

763
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah man, Old?

764
00:39:31,679 --> 00:39:33,599
Speaker 1: So you have some stories, Ed.

765
00:39:35,079 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I got a bunch I can't tell.

766
00:39:37,159 --> 00:39:39,679
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, that's the best story you can give us,

767
00:39:39,679 --> 00:39:42,440
a very quick, one minute best story you can tell.

768
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:48,280
Speaker 12: Okay, I'll tell you something to historic things. Have you

769
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:52,159
ever bought a keyboard like a Cassio keyboard or something

770
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:57,039
and they had a hand clapped key, you know, like

771
00:39:57,079 --> 00:39:58,159
a key when you hit it.

772
00:39:58,039 --> 00:39:59,519
Speaker 3: It sounded like you're clapped in hand.

773
00:39:59,679 --> 00:40:05,559
Speaker 12: Okay, Well, back in the day, our keyboard player Bernie Warrell.

774
00:40:05,599 --> 00:40:09,159
Speaker 3: Who is like just amazing, was one of the first

775
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:10,840
people to play.

776
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:17,920
Speaker 12: A Mog synthesizer, and he would program hand claps into

777
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:23,000
the synthesizer to where not only Mogue but other keyboard

778
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:28,360
players recognized the hand clap as an instrument. So when

779
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,960
you see on the little thing, you'll see a trumpet,

780
00:40:32,159 --> 00:40:36,000
you'll see a drum, You'll see two hands clapping each other.

781
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:40,480
That's all because of Parliament, now, all because of Funker

782
00:40:40,559 --> 00:40:46,880
Dellic And the other thing is large like the shows

783
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:51,280
that you see, like beyond seeing them doing which high production.

784
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:55,840
Parliament Funker Delick was the first band to do it when.

785
00:40:55,639 --> 00:40:58,280
Speaker 3: They were on Casablanca Records.

786
00:40:58,599 --> 00:41:02,719
Speaker 12: They were label mates with Kiss, but they were hotter

787
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,280
at the time than Kiss, and they did an elaborash

788
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:07,079
stage show.

789
00:41:07,559 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, they used to come out of spaceships and stuff, right.

790
00:41:11,079 --> 00:41:13,199
Speaker 3: And that was the other thing. I was gonna say.

791
00:41:13,559 --> 00:41:16,639
Speaker 12: The mothership that they used to come out of is

792
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,119
now in the Smithsonian.

793
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:23,159
Speaker 1: Oh wow, all right, ed, thank you, and I rather

was so high he didn't realize it and he just

807
00:42:05,639 --> 00:42:10,280

Speaker 2: Well, I mean that's we listen.

00:43:30,039 --> 00:43:31,400
was saying in nineteen seventy three.

831
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:34,639
Speaker 2: I don't know how co year it he is.

832

848
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:27,599
three pointers, whatever. Like I said, I like to find

849
00:44:27,599 --> 00:44:30,880
like triple double threats like maybe MN Thompson who's hurt unfortunately,

850
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:34,239
or Alpry Chingoon and go with the points, rebounds and assist.

851
00:44:34,639 --> 00:44:37,800

00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,320
the news at noon, which will be labeled with Texans news,

00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:47,400

Speaker 2: Okay, full of gravy? Yeah yeah, cream or brown?

879
00:46:08,559 --> 00:46:11,519

00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,320
Speaker 2: H you are so careful.

881
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,760
Speaker 1: His eyes lit up. Matt. You asked me what kind

882
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,599
of gravy I like? And Connor Govern's eyes lit up

883
00:46:20,639 --> 00:46:22,960
like a child guy would go coming down.

884
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 2: The stairs for Christmas. It's all about the cream, Matt.

885
00:46:25,119 --> 00:46:26,039
Speaker 1: See.

886
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 5: I knew it.

887
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:32,599
Speaker 1: I freaking knew it. Cash rules everything around me. Cream

888
00:46:32,639 --> 00:46:38,039
get the money, dollar dollar bills, y'all. Okay, I prefer

889
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,000
I prefer brown gravy, but I like cream gravy too.

890
00:46:42,159 --> 00:46:45,000
By the way, we did we did announce that Connor's

891
00:46:45,039 --> 00:46:49,400
going away. He's given me all the drops. It was

892
00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:51,800
like five hundred. Oh by the way, oh my god,

893
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,119
there's like five hundred of me. Good play them as

894
00:46:55,159 --> 00:46:57,639
often as possible. Make sure the new producer or whoever

895
00:46:57,679 --> 00:46:59,760
we have, make sure he knows where all this stuff is.

896
00:47:00,039 --> 00:47:01,960
If they had to put the pope up ross and said,

897
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:04,239
you know, I want you to listen to this, well,

898
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:04,920
he's Catholic.

899
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:06,320
Speaker 2: He can't possibly get this right.

900
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:08,440
Speaker 1: Sticking people.

901
00:47:10,519 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 2: Where was that from?

902
00:47:11,639 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just thought it was funny. It

903
00:47:13,679 --> 00:47:16,159
was it was a Friday open once, once upon a

904
00:47:16,199 --> 00:47:16,599
time ago.

905
00:47:17,639 --> 00:47:20,679
Speaker 2: So this is your last week of Friday opens? Yeah,

906
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:24,039
how would you do it? Best of find your best ones?

907
00:47:24,119 --> 00:47:26,119
Speaker 1: Man, I have stuff I've e't been used yet too,

908
00:47:26,199 --> 00:47:28,760
but I'll do the best one. There's some I listened to.

909
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:30,760
Some just made me laugh some time. So I'm gonna

910
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:32,800
play those. You put him on a loop to go

911
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:35,800
to sleep. I appreciate that. There's there's one that's my

912
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,559
absolute favorite that I'll play on Friday. All right. Uh,

913
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:40,400
By the way, he has taken over the lead of

914
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:42,599
a certain old friend of ours, a band or fleet

915
00:47:42,679 --> 00:47:45,599
of asking for rockets tickets he has. Yes, I thought

916
00:47:45,639 --> 00:47:47,480
I was trying to get in a run. You you've

917
00:47:47,519 --> 00:47:50,280
gotten a good run yourself, He's He's like as a

918
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,000
party gift, do you have your tickets to fill them?

919
00:47:52,039 --> 00:47:52,159
Speaker 11: All?

920
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:52,320
Speaker 4: Like?

921
00:47:52,519 --> 00:47:53,159
Speaker 2: All right?

922
00:47:53,599 --> 00:47:58,199
Speaker 1: No, keep asking one guy one for the road like that.

923
00:47:58,280 --> 00:47:59,840
So we're gonna go get some cream barbecue off the

924
00:48:00,119 --> 00:48:02,280
on Friday. Yes, if you forgot where we're going yet,

925
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:08,280
I know I have recommendations from a Korean who lived here. Ok, okay,

926
00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:10,559
and then so we're gonna celebrate and we're gonna go

927
00:48:10,599 --> 00:48:12,920
free plucks. No, no, unless they take care of us,

928
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,639
and then it's different. So all right, uh seven one

929
00:48:15,639 --> 00:48:17,440
three two one two five seven out if you want

930
00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:18,400
to join our program today.

931
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,280
Speaker 2: Seven one three two one two five seven.

932
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:24,519
Speaker 1: We've obviously spent the first hour talking about the super

933
00:48:24,559 --> 00:48:28,599
mega trade shocked the world. Be fair to say no

934
00:48:28,639 --> 00:48:32,760
one saw it coming. I would say very surprising. I

935
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:34,760
love those trades. I love trade that, by the way,

936
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:36,599
because we had heard those whispers and man, as you

937
00:48:36,639 --> 00:48:40,559
pointed out about Dimico Ryans's comments and and there were

938
00:48:40,639 --> 00:48:43,239
there you were talking about things getting whispered. We'd heard

939
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:46,599
the whispers that they don't like Laramie Tunzel not always

940
00:48:46,599 --> 00:48:47,119
showing up.

941
00:48:47,159 --> 00:48:49,480
Speaker 2: They don't like him being about himself.

942
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,719
Speaker 1: And I don't know this for a fact, but to me,

943
00:48:52,039 --> 00:48:55,679
just from watching the games, all those false start penalties

944
00:48:56,159 --> 00:48:58,360
are because he's trying to make sure that he gets

945
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:00,320
off the line of scrimmage early, because he he's just

946
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:00,639
trying to.

947
00:49:00,639 --> 00:49:01,880
Speaker 2: Keep his pressure numbers down.

948
00:49:02,039 --> 00:49:05,519
Speaker 1: He's hyper aware to me of his pressure numbers and

949
00:49:05,639 --> 00:49:08,079
sacks giving up and all that type of stuff, and

950
00:49:08,119 --> 00:49:10,559
he cares about more about being first and keeping those

951
00:49:10,599 --> 00:49:13,880
numbers down than hurting the team with a false start. Yep,

952
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:19,599
he's more about his stats than helping the team. As

953
00:49:19,639 --> 00:49:22,679
you just described that, that's not all pro to me,

954
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,000
the all pro definition and you've been using it and

955
00:49:26,079 --> 00:49:29,599
I get it pro Bowl. But if that's what Pro

956
00:49:29,639 --> 00:49:32,400
Bowl is ross, then probably ain't that great. Well, he's

957
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,320
a Pro Bowl player, he's not a Pro Bowl teammate.

958
00:49:35,159 --> 00:49:38,360
There's a difference. As a guy. I'm sorry you committed

959
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:40,920
the most false starts of any lineman in the NFL.

960
00:49:41,039 --> 00:49:43,239
That doesn't make you a Pro Bowl player. I don't

961
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,800
care who vote you in or what's around you. That

962
00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:48,320
means the offensive line collectively is a unit in the

963
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,639
NFL sucks. If Laramie Tunsel, with all the penalties he

964
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,360
had now grant again to his pressure eight was that

965
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,000
low though, and the sacks giving up all that in

966
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,079
his back half of the season was significantly better. We

967
00:49:59,119 --> 00:50:01,320
get we were doing Terry fall start calls every week.

968
00:50:01,639 --> 00:50:05,880
He stopped doing that. Yes, wasn't holding a lot, but

969
00:50:06,079 --> 00:50:09,199
there were things that were. I mean, the Minnesota game

970
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:13,239
in itself should have been It probably was the low

971
00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:15,599
water point of his career as a Houston as fratman

972
00:50:15,639 --> 00:50:18,039
or an NFL player. You just don't continue to have

973
00:50:18,119 --> 00:50:21,159
those types of penalties week after week after week against

974
00:50:21,159 --> 00:50:22,840
an elite team. And oh, by the way, you beat

975
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,079
an laitue team like Minnesota. Guess what you're doing in

976
00:50:25,119 --> 00:50:26,480
Week two of the NFL playoffs.

977
00:50:26,519 --> 00:50:28,039
Speaker 2: You're at home. It's compared to go on the road.

978
00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:31,599
Speaker 1: You need your superstars, your high and offensive players, whether

979
00:50:31,639 --> 00:50:35,760
it's quarterback, wide receiver, running back, defensive lineman, whatever the

980
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:39,920
step up. It's no big deal to block weak ass

981
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,079
Jacksonville or weak ass Cleveland. No, but Larry Tunsil did

982
00:50:43,079 --> 00:50:45,599
have very good matchups against like Miles Garrett. He did

983
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,760
like he's gone against the best of the best, and

984
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:50,519
he would did a good job of neutralizing.

985
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:56,360
Speaker 2: Look for me, he's not I said mid. But he's

986
00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:57,039
not mid.

987
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: He's just not exceptional in except guys, Yes, should deserve

988
00:51:01,559 --> 00:51:05,880
exceptional dollars and exceptional money that was being spent on him.

989
00:51:06,159 --> 00:51:07,760
Speaker 2: Me, he was the best of the worst. That's why

990
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:08,199
he's gone.

991
00:51:08,559 --> 00:51:12,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, and now we say small prayers every day for CJ.

992
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 2: Stroud.

993
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,280
Speaker 1: Now, before the twenty twenty four season, I did see this.

994
00:51:16,199 --> 00:51:19,079
He was named the NFL. You know they did they

995
00:51:19,159 --> 00:51:20,920
named the top hundred players? Correct?

996
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:22,119
Speaker 2: The players vote?

997
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,840
Speaker 1: Okay, he was named the fifth best tackle at number

998
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,599
seventy one, top in the top one hundred, so he's

999
00:51:27,639 --> 00:51:30,639
pretty good. But is that because a name recognition? Though?

1000
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:32,559
Speaker 2: It's almost like ross when you want to play.

1001
00:51:32,679 --> 00:51:34,199
Speaker 1: Once you win a gold Glove, you have to really

1002
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:36,000
goof up, not take another one because your name is

1003
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:36,360
out there.

1004
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 2: Well maybe then I guess he built that up, But

1005
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:39,920
it's up to the players.

1006
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:40,119
Speaker 3: Man.

1007
00:51:40,159 --> 00:51:42,280
Speaker 1: I would say that more with the name recognition, honestly,

1008
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,239
with the media than the players.

1009
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,599
Speaker 2: But the players aren't perfect. There's no perfect grading system.

1010
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:50,000
Speaker 1: I'm just saying. By you add that he's a top

1011
00:51:50,079 --> 00:51:52,000
one hundred player, add that he was a pro bowler,

1012
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,159
he's not bad. He can't be horrible, not horrible, and

1013
00:51:55,320 --> 00:52:00,400
I'll never say he was ever horrible. But I believe

1014
00:52:00,639 --> 00:52:06,079
that there were the intangibles didn't protect him from being

1015
00:52:06,159 --> 00:52:10,480
talked about in trade conversation, not showing up for Rota's,

1016
00:52:10,519 --> 00:52:12,840
not showing up for many camps, the extra days off.

1017
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:16,920
Wasn't there one time this year that CJ just got

1018
00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,320
his ass kicked and everybody ran over there. But but

1019
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,440
Lareremie Tunseel. I mean, I don't want to. I don't

1020
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,320
want to use Twitter and video to do that. No, no, no, no, no,

1021
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:27,400
that was overblown. He didn't even he It happened behind him.

1022
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:28,000
That's what I'm saying.

1023
00:52:28,039 --> 00:52:30,679
Speaker 2: I don't, I don't. I want Larry, Yeah, please, I want.

1024
00:52:30,679 --> 00:52:31,360
You know that's okay.

1025
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,559
Speaker 1: Somebody ran with that because Larry Tunzel was upfield and

1026
00:52:34,599 --> 00:52:36,760
then CJ got knocked down behind him and he kind

1027
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:37,599
of didn't see that.

1028
00:52:37,599 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 2: That's not fair to Laramie either.

1029
00:52:39,039 --> 00:52:39,119
Speaker 13: No.

1030
00:52:39,199 --> 00:52:41,159
Speaker 1: I mean again, we're just gonna be honest about this.

1031
00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:43,320
There were things about him that bothered me tremendously that

1032
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,480
would in that particular situation, was not one of them.

1033
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,760
Seven one three two one two five seven ninety Is

1034
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:53,159
this word new that the cult signed Daniel Jones one year,

1035
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:59,280
fourteen million dollars Colt san it's Anthony Richardson and it's

1036
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,960
Daniel j I would basically put a surgically repair to

1037
00:53:04,079 --> 00:53:05,800
arm On Peyton Manning and see what he's got left

1038
00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:08,000
from the town. You can't do any better than that. Seriously,

1039
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:10,760
those are your two quarterbacks. Damn. The Texans are going

1040
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:14,840
to the AMC South by default again because Tennessee is

1041
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:18,320
in complete rebuild. Trevor Lawrence wake me up when he's

1042
00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:20,679
good for more than say, four games in a row.

1043
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:24,119
And the culture sending out Anthony Richison backed up by

1044
00:53:24,199 --> 00:53:30,480
Daniel Jones, give me a break. And that's what it's

1045
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:32,920
always been about Ross. It hasn't been about the Texans

1046
00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:34,960
being the best of the worst in the AFC South.

1047
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:36,119
Speaker 2: That's what it is.

1048
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:39,039
Speaker 1: It's about getting it's getting to the next level. It's

1049
00:53:39,039 --> 00:53:41,000
getting to be Baltimore, it's getting to be Kansas City.

1050
00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:44,360
And don't sleep on Cincinnati. And I'm telling you, I

1051
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,480
know the Chargers suck last year in the playoff game.

1052
00:53:46,559 --> 00:53:47,719
Speaker 2: I wouldn't sleep on them either.

1053
00:53:48,039 --> 00:53:51,960
Speaker 1: Cincinnati's got issues defensively, especially they got my guy t

1054
00:53:52,079 --> 00:53:56,960
Higgins though, again, pend a lot of money for those

1055
00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:01,519
two players, because here's what happens. If you spend obscene

1056
00:54:01,559 --> 00:54:04,440
amounts of money on on one position, in two players

1057
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:06,199
at one position, you get hurt. And that's why they

1058
00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:11,360
are moving defensive players out. They were getting into like

1059
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,039
forty five to forty two shootouts already last year. Now

1060
00:54:14,039 --> 00:54:17,559
they're gonna deal Trey Hendrickson. Yeah, well he's searching for

1061
00:54:17,599 --> 00:54:19,079
a trade. Is what they was told me, right, they're

1062
00:54:19,119 --> 00:54:21,360
trying to deal with Yeah, all right. Seven one three

1063
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:23,519
two one two five, seven ninety. The Rockets got to

1064
00:54:23,559 --> 00:54:26,360
win last night. They have won three consecutive games. We're

1065
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,119
getting no help from anybody else. Ross, although last night

1066
00:54:29,159 --> 00:54:31,159
we did. Can thank the Nets they beat the Lakers.

1067
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,920
The Rockets are as close to two as they are

1068
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:39,519
to seven. This is scary. This is the West. I

1069
00:54:39,559 --> 00:54:42,480
hate this. It's terrible. This is happening for twenty years.

1070
00:54:42,519 --> 00:54:46,800
It's terrible. The Rockets are playing six hundred basketball and

1071
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:48,280
they might not even have home court in the first

1072
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:52,280
round of the playoffs. Isn't that crazy? Yes, seven one

1073
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,960
three two one two five, seven ninety. If you joined

1074
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:57,400
our program seven one three two one two five seven

1075
00:54:57,599 --> 00:54:59,840
eleven thirteen, this is the Matt thomash ol Ross.

1076
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:01,360
Speaker 2: You're on Sports Talk seven.

1077
00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:07,119
Speaker 8: Ninety Matten Ross return return on Sports Talk seven ninety.

1078
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:09,960
Speaker 5: Bowls Rip.

1079
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,920
Speaker 14: Give it to Adams inside the arc behind him the green,

1080
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,880
giving it back to Adams at the left elbow, looking

1081
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:17,719
to final open man. Bounced pass to a cutter of

1082
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:20,119
the screen, giving it back to Adamson as you called

1083
00:55:20,159 --> 00:55:22,320
a dump with the right hand for Steven Adams who

1084
00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:23,800
has nine first half points.

1085
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:27,199
Speaker 6: Tremendous back door cut by Jalen who immediately got the

1086
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,559
pass from Adams and shot it right back to him

1087
00:55:29,559 --> 00:55:30,039
for the dump.

1088
00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:34,559
Speaker 2: Flipping Brooks spaceline right. Jabari looking for another three pointer.

1089
00:55:34,639 --> 00:55:35,480
He's feeling it.

1090
00:55:35,639 --> 00:55:40,039
Speaker 1: That was a beautiful sideline three eighty nine seventy three

1091
00:55:40,679 --> 00:55:42,920
Jabbari up to twenty to go along with seven.

1092
00:55:42,679 --> 00:55:44,920
Speaker 2: Board James Nintendoo.

1093
00:55:45,199 --> 00:55:48,280
Speaker 1: Rockets beat the Magic last night in ninety seven eighty four.

1094
00:55:48,519 --> 00:55:51,199
The nineteen ninety five NBA season has no problem with

1095
00:55:51,199 --> 00:55:54,320
that final score from last night. It was shocking a

1096
00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:57,840
little bit. Thirty nine percent the Rockets shoot offense, he

1097
00:55:58,519 --> 00:56:01,480
and they win by thirteen Rocks. The Magic shot thirty

1098
00:56:01,519 --> 00:56:05,159
three percent from the floor, eight of thirty two from three. Rockets,

1099
00:56:05,199 --> 00:56:08,480
by the way, turned it over twenty times. Alpi my

1100
00:56:08,679 --> 00:56:15,800
man six by himself. It can be a problem, and

1101
00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:19,000
especially it's really a problem when you don't have Fred

1102
00:56:19,039 --> 00:56:21,559
van Vliet and Men Thompson can be prone to turnovers

1103
00:56:21,559 --> 00:56:24,519
as well. But when you're losing ball handlers and it's

1104
00:56:24,599 --> 00:56:29,400
more Alpern ching Goon and more Jalen Green the careless

1105
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,159
turnovers and I mean alprinching gooons are like he's at

1106
00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:34,400
least trying to back somebody down, but he just he's

1107
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:36,360
got a loose handle and people rip the ball from

1108
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:41,039
all the time. Yeah, Alpie and Jalen combined for ten

1109
00:56:41,039 --> 00:56:44,360
of the rocket twenty turnovers last night. Jalen was six

1110
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:49,840
of eighteen, three of nine from three Rockets also only

1111
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,079
made it eleven of eighteen free throws.

1112
00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:57,280
Speaker 2: Ugly, are they won? That's all I can ask.

1113
00:56:58,039 --> 00:57:04,159
Speaker 1: They won twenty five. They will meet, they will. They

1114
00:57:04,159 --> 00:57:07,559
will match their win total with their next victory from

1115
00:57:07,599 --> 00:57:11,599
last year. Let's go that. Still have sixteen games left

1116
00:57:11,639 --> 00:57:13,320
to go in the season, seventeen games left to go

1117
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:14,239
in this season.

1118
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,519
Speaker 2: And still have hing pre oppens and can get better.

1119
00:57:16,559 --> 00:57:17,199
It can be better.

1120
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:20,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've won three in a row, yep, and a

1121
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:24,119
very winnable home stand still ahead tomorrow night. Yeah, you

1122
00:57:24,159 --> 00:57:25,639
were looking for six and one. How are we looking?

1123
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:29,840
We're three and oh so far pretty good. Phoenix lost

1124
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:32,039
last night at Memphis, Kevin Durant with a miss three

1125
00:57:32,079 --> 00:57:34,639
pointer at the buzzard that allowed Memphis to hold onto

1126
00:57:34,679 --> 00:57:37,360
the win. You have Dallas on Friday, who's got no

1127
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:41,480
healthy players left? Chicago on Saturday, who sucks. Although a

1128
00:57:41,559 --> 00:57:44,440
Kobe White I think is scoring forty in the racored forty four,

1129
00:57:44,559 --> 00:57:46,920
he's averaging like eighteen on the season before that. And

1130
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:49,000
then you got Philadelphia on Monday, who's down to like

1131
00:57:49,039 --> 00:57:53,119
three players. So you know you got a chance. You

1132
00:57:53,199 --> 00:57:55,960
cannot let up. Because here's the thing. As awesome a

1133
00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:58,199
it is to have all these home games, and as

1134
00:57:58,239 --> 00:58:01,559
awesome as it is to have you know, these subpar

1135
00:58:01,679 --> 00:58:05,719
teams coming in. Golden State doesn't lose anymore. The Lakers

1136
00:58:05,719 --> 00:58:08,039
have lost a couple as of lates. That's been encouraging,

1137
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:12,480
but Denver doesn't lose anymore, and Phoenix and Memphis has

1138
00:58:12,519 --> 00:58:16,400
won a couple straight. The Rockets right now are in

1139
00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:19,840
the fifth spot. They are two out of the two

1140
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:22,679
and at this point they would hold the tiebreaker over

1141
00:58:22,719 --> 00:58:24,960
Denver because they've only played Denver once, but they've got

1142
00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:28,480
two more games with them, both in Houston. Ironically enough,

1143
00:58:30,679 --> 00:58:34,159
the Lakers are a game back or a game ahead

1144
00:58:34,159 --> 00:58:38,079
of the Rockets, as are Memphis. The Rockets, although tiebreak

1145
00:58:38,119 --> 00:58:41,320
over Memphis, the Rockets would have the tiebreaker over the Lakers,

1146
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,280
but the Rockets and Lakers played two more times, and

1147
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,639
then you have Golden State, who is three back of

1148
00:58:46,679 --> 00:58:50,119
the Rockets for the six in the sixth position. Golden State,

1149
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:52,920
with one more game against the Rockets, has the tiebreaker

1150
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:57,320
over Houston. They just keep climbing, too Golden State, they

1151
00:58:57,360 --> 00:58:59,719
won't lose. They have won five in a roerwo and

1152
00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:03,760
nine of ten. Well, that Jimmy Butler. This is what

1153
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:06,039
I never would have thought Jimmy Butler made making any

1154
00:59:06,039 --> 00:59:08,400
significant difference. It's not like he's like stepping in there

1155
00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:11,119
and scoring twenty five points a game. He's just been

1156
00:59:11,199 --> 00:59:14,079
rock solid for them. You added a talented player to

1157
00:59:14,119 --> 00:59:16,360
a talented basketball team. Yeah, he's really good. He's not

1158
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:20,159
a superstar. He's not worth the fifty sixty million years,

1159
00:59:20,199 --> 00:59:22,719
no one. And he'll always give you on the court.

1160
00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:25,280
He always gets pissed off eventually sometime, Oh he will.

1161
00:59:28,199 --> 00:59:32,719
Minnesota in the seventh spot. They are uh three and

1162
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:35,480
a half back of the Rockets. They have won five straight.

1163
00:59:36,039 --> 00:59:38,639
The Clippers have won three. I mean, damn, No one's

1164
00:59:38,679 --> 00:59:41,599
losing in the West except teams that are normally custom

1165
00:59:41,599 --> 00:59:46,280
to losing. These days, the West is tough. Ten the

1166
00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:49,599
teams with a positive point differential in the West, six

1167
00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:52,159
in the East. The tenth place team in the West

1168
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:54,760
is the Dallas Mavericks. They are thirty three and thirty

1169
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:59,039
three five hundred. The tenth record in the East is

1170
00:59:59,079 --> 01:00:02,039
the Chicago bull at twenty seven and thirty eight.

1171
01:00:02,079 --> 01:00:03,920
Speaker 2: They're eleven under five hundred.

1172
01:00:05,679 --> 01:00:07,519
Speaker 1: That's why you could get You got to get fat

1173
01:00:07,559 --> 01:00:10,320
and happy off of Chicago. And you've got a game

1174
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:15,400
in Orlando next week, and uh, you've got another game

1175
01:00:15,599 --> 01:00:19,559
with mentioned Philadelphia, and then you've got Phoenix.

1176
01:00:19,119 --> 01:00:21,519
Speaker 2: Who is in a complete free fall.

1177
01:00:22,679 --> 01:00:26,840
Speaker 1: And Dallas, who's trying to hang on to that number

1178
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:27,719
ten spot in the West.

1179
01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:29,000
Speaker 2: They're gonna hang on. They're two and a half in

1180
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:29,800
front of Phoenix. Phoenix.

1181
01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:32,199
Speaker 1: I'm gonna chase that. So Phoenix out tenth. He's gonna

1182
01:00:32,199 --> 01:00:33,679
get in the playoff game. But they're gonna be fodder

1183
01:00:33,679 --> 01:00:36,239
because whoever whoever advances out of that plan is gonna

1184
01:00:36,239 --> 01:00:38,559
play Oklahoma City, and they're good luck and good luck

1185
01:00:38,679 --> 01:00:41,320
enjoying your four games and your three nights in Oklahoma City.

1186
01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:43,599
Maybe maybe a gentleman sweep, maybe they get one at home.

1187
01:00:44,039 --> 01:00:46,880
That's true. Seven one three two one two five seven

1188
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:49,880
ninety seven one three two one two five seven ninety

1189
01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:51,960
one more NBA. Hopfore we get to our gut feelings

1190
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:53,559
about way. Gut feelings are coming up at bottom of

1191
01:00:53,559 --> 01:00:54,880
the hour where you get to make your predictions bout

1192
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,280
anything in sports over the weekend.

1193
01:00:58,320 --> 01:00:59,920
Speaker 2: Was it maybe Friday? I don't know what it was.

1194
01:01:00,679 --> 01:01:04,639
Nikola Jokic had a thirty twenty twenty triple double, first

1195
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:06,400
in NBA history.

1196
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:10,679
Speaker 1: Okay, I preface this by saying, when you watch the

1197
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:14,519
body language of Nikolai jokinch, he would rather be doing

1198
01:01:14,559 --> 01:01:17,519
anything but playing basketball. He's like, I'm seven feet tall,

1199
01:01:18,239 --> 01:01:21,199
I've been given the gift of soft hands and a

1200
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:24,719
good shot. I guess I'll play basketball. I guess I'll

1201
01:01:24,760 --> 01:01:27,039
do it. Yeah, he didn't have a choice. He'd be

1202
01:01:27,119 --> 01:01:29,679
working in a Serbian farm, but he's playing basketball instead.

1203
01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:33,679
When we start putting him in the all time top ten,

1204
01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:37,840
are we getting close? And here's the thing, ross, If

1205
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:39,920
we put him in the top ten, which we are

1206
01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:43,239
getting closer and closer and closer to doing, we got

1207
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:45,159
to take somebody out. He's gonna be there.

1208
01:01:46,679 --> 01:01:48,559
Speaker 2: He's a unicorn.

1209
01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:51,400
Speaker 1: He's seven foot with a touch. You said, he's a

1210
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:54,920
brilliant passer, great rebounder, His defense early in his career

1211
01:01:55,039 --> 01:01:55,519
was horrible.

1212
01:01:55,559 --> 01:01:58,800
Speaker 2: Now it's good, serviceable, it's serviceable. That's as far as

1213
01:01:58,840 --> 01:01:59,079
I'll go.

1214
01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:05,119
Speaker 1: He's just a he's a one of a kind weapon,

1215
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:08,119
Like we just did something that's never happened ever before,

1216
01:02:08,199 --> 01:02:14,760
even with even with Magic, with Michael Jeffrey, with Oscar Robertson,

1217
01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:17,239
who was the for that matter, Russell Westbrook. I mean,

1218
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:19,119
these are guys that lived on triple doubles in their

1219
01:02:19,199 --> 01:02:24,519
NBA career thirty twenty and twenty. I feel like Bobara Walters,

1220
01:02:24,639 --> 01:02:29,280
this is twenty twenty. Yeah, he's not gonna compile. You know,

1221
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:30,880
he's not gonna get up to the some of the

1222
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:32,679
all time lists because very early in his career he

1223
01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:36,480
wasn't good, or he just wasn't he was developing, he

1224
01:02:36,639 --> 01:02:42,320
was a young player. But he's three time MVP. He

1225
01:02:43,199 --> 01:02:45,360
should win his fourth. I think it's going to go

1226
01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:50,239
to Shake Gilgess, Alexander As Okay, we've given Nikolay Okitch

1227
01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:53,400
the MVP all these times. He's six eleven listed to

1228
01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:56,960
two eighty four. He's more Luca than he is. He's

1229
01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:02,239
Serbian strong, would that be fair to say not? I mean, yeah,

1230
01:03:02,519 --> 01:03:05,800
he's averaging twenty nine, ten and ten I'm sorry, ten

1231
01:03:06,039 --> 01:03:12,199
assists and thirteen rebounds. He's about okay. So the most

1232
01:03:12,239 --> 01:03:15,239
MVP's ever is Kareem with six, then Jordan with five,

1233
01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:19,360
Lebron has four. I don't know if anybody else has four.

1234
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:23,719
I'll have to go look this up. But once he

1235
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:27,639
hits four MVPs, which he should, I don't know if

1236
01:03:27,639 --> 01:03:30,239
he's going to this year, then yeah, he's already on

1237
01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:32,000
the list of the greatest of the greats. And by

1238
01:03:32,039 --> 01:03:35,159
the way, everybody who's ever had one MVP is in

1239
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:38,480
the Hall of Fame in the NBA except Derek Rose,

1240
01:03:38,519 --> 01:03:40,840
and he's okay. I imagine he does he need to

1241
01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:43,639
win another championship to become one of the all all

1242
01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:47,559
time greats, because I just looked at it.

1243
01:03:47,559 --> 01:03:48,920
Speaker 2: I looked at his Wikipedia page.

1244
01:03:49,639 --> 01:03:52,119
Speaker 1: It takes fifteen minutes look at his Wikipedia page for

1245
01:03:52,199 --> 01:03:55,280
all the different accomplishments. He is so far ahead in

1246
01:03:55,360 --> 01:04:02,960
his NBA career. I question, hi, man, if we put

1247
01:04:03,039 --> 01:04:08,360
him in the top ten, who we taken out? And

1248
01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:10,800
don't say I gotta rank Rooum for eleven. If you

1249
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:13,719
have a top ten, you have to take somebody out, okay,

1250
01:04:15,559 --> 01:04:17,599
And we can go are we going through? I'm just

1251
01:04:17,679 --> 01:04:19,440
saying somebody to think about down the road. We got

1252
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:20,840
all the things to get to today. But I'm just

1253
01:04:21,119 --> 01:04:24,920
just throwing that out there. He's only thirty okay, players

1254
01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:30,559
to win four. Okay, he's already an elite company. I

1255
01:04:30,679 --> 01:04:35,280
want to list you the players who've won three MVPs, Bird, Magic,

1256
01:04:35,639 --> 01:04:42,119
Moses Malone, and Nikolai Jokich. I missed Wilt, He's won four,

1257
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:45,760
Lebron's won four, Michael Jordan, Bill Russell with five, Kareem

1258
01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:47,960
was six. Oh wait, I think I think you brought

1259
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:49,360
up the name you kick out of the top ten.

1260
01:04:49,679 --> 01:04:56,440
Bill Russell, Nope, Wilt Chamberlain, nope, Larry Bird yep. Oh

1261
01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:00,840
don't put you. We're not gonna put you on wee.

1262
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:01,679
Speaker 5: I what that take?

1263
01:05:02,639 --> 01:05:05,840
Speaker 1: No, I don't think you're crazy if you're going to

1264
01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:09,760
take out somebody that's legendary, no matter whatbody's got to

1265
01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:10,559
be eleven.

1266
01:05:12,039 --> 01:05:12,719
Speaker 2: And the problem is you.

1267
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:14,840
Speaker 1: Kobe's not is not an unanimous top ten?

1268
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:15,159
Speaker 3: Is he?

1269
01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:21,760
Speaker 1: I would say most people do. I don't. Okay, So

1270
01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:24,559
this come down to Kobe or Larry gets kicked out

1271
01:05:24,599 --> 01:05:26,760
of the top ten. If Nicole now again, maybe people

1272
01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:30,679
are saying Nicole or Duncan or Shack. Oh I mentioned Shack.

1273
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:33,320
I didn't even mention Hakeem the dream OLAJU want if

1274
01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:34,000
you heard of that guy.

1275
01:05:34,119 --> 01:05:36,440
Speaker 2: But they are. They in the top ten of the

1276
01:05:36,679 --> 01:05:38,519
all time. Hakeem was in my top ten.

1277
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:39,440
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

1278
01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:42,159
Speaker 2: Am I gonna get crushed in Houston for saying this?

1279
01:05:42,639 --> 01:05:46,199
Speaker 1: Don't say it? Eleven twenty seven. Time for us to

1280
01:05:46,239 --> 01:05:48,960
give you some gut feelings. We're gonna make some sports predictions.

01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:05,400
If you get them wrong, we'll just forget about him.

1287
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:07,360
It's the Matt Thomas Show with Ross here on seven

1288
01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:11,760
ninety What's up the boy? I've been so appealing?

1289
01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:13,280
Speaker 15: Wasn't that tummat?

1290
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:14,920

01:06:23,719 --> 01:06:26,039
your last gut feeling. Now you can always call the show.

1294
01:06:26,079 --> 01:06:27,360
I don't know if your new boss is gonna let

01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:28,639
you do that, but you could always call in with

gut feelings if you so choose. I'll call in and

check up everyone. Man, we're not gonna hear from you,

1298
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:35,679
but once twice a year, maybe Tom's deleting another column

1299
01:06:35,719 --> 01:06:42,639
from the from the spreadsheet. Okay for a while, for

1300
01:06:42,760 --> 01:06:45,039
old Tod's sake, you're just gonna be You're gonna be

1301
01:06:45,079 --> 01:06:46,679
happier to know that we're probably gonna remember your name

1302
01:06:46,719 --> 01:06:49,840
more than we do with the producers. There are something

1303
01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:51,760
like we used to work with this guy many moons ago,

1304
01:06:52,119 --> 01:06:56,599
like we had Noah, I've got his first gut feeling

1305
01:06:56,679 --> 01:07:01,000
from November seventh, twenty twenty three, and Texans game is close.

1306
01:07:01,119 --> 01:07:04,840
God knows what happened. They probably lost Dylan Brooks holds

1307
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:09,360
lebron to under twenty points. Okay, who knows if that happened.

1308
01:07:09,519 --> 01:07:11,119
Let's go back to last week. Let's go back into

1309
01:07:11,159 --> 01:07:16,639
the here and now. Okay, fine, uh, let's see you

1310
01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:19,960
have Alex bregnant with an over eight hundred ops in April.

1311
01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:23,000
You jerk, you said something else, but I guess I

1312
01:07:23,039 --> 01:07:29,000
didn't write it down. Good. Um, I said that the

1313
01:07:29,119 --> 01:07:34,760
Rockets would be three and one versus the Pelicans, Pacers

1314
01:07:35,079 --> 01:07:36,719
and Magic. And they did go three and one, right,

1315
01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:37,199
they lost to.

1316
01:07:37,159 --> 01:07:40,159
Speaker 2: The Pacers lost, the Pacers lost the Thunder, No, but.

1317
01:07:40,199 --> 01:07:42,639
Speaker 1: They but they beat New Orleans twice and Orlando three

1318
01:07:42,639 --> 01:07:45,039
and one. There you go, give yourself promise. I'm called

1319
01:07:45,159 --> 01:07:49,400
nailed it. Connor McGovern had the Rockets winning all four.

1320
01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:53,800
Unfortunately they lost to the Pacers. He said, ALPI scores

1321
01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:55,400
at least twenty five and one of them. I believe

1322
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:59,280
that did happen. We'll just give him the credit on that.

1323
01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:03,840
I'm not sure. And then he said, score both games

1324
01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:06,039
against the Pelicans twenty and twenty two points, and then

1325
01:08:06,039 --> 01:08:08,400
the Pacers he had twenty five and you said twenty

1326
01:08:08,440 --> 01:08:08,800
five more.

1327
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:12,239
Speaker 2: Okay, oh okay, So twenty five pickleball in the.

1328
01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:14,599
Speaker 1: Olympics in twenty two were Actually we're gonna call him

1329
01:08:14,639 --> 01:08:17,479
in four years, Matt three years to be sooner than that.

1330
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:19,640
We'll probably know in the next two year. Yeah, that's true.

1331
01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:23,960
That was a retaliation true the day before. Yeah, I

1332
01:08:24,079 --> 01:08:28,079
get you. Matt takes her tough, because Matt Thomas takes

1333
01:08:28,119 --> 01:08:30,239
are tough. And that's all I have.

1334
01:08:32,479 --> 01:08:34,199
Speaker 2: That's all we didn't do much of last week, did we?

1335
01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:35,119
All right?

1336
01:08:35,319 --> 01:08:37,760
Speaker 1: Or I didn't write it out? Now Brad distracted. Brad's

1337
01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:40,800
the only person along serious. So here's the bit for

1338
01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:43,960
those of you playing at home. We try to take

1339
01:08:44,079 --> 01:08:48,560
Brad as late as humanly possible, which means anybody that

1340
01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:51,479
calls in before him at seven one three, two, one

1341
01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:55,439
two five seven ninety seven one three two one two

1342
01:08:56,199 --> 01:09:00,159
five seven nine zero seven one three two one to

1343
01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:04,000
five seven nine zero you get in before Brad. Now,

1344
01:09:04,119 --> 01:09:05,840
no one calls in the next day two to three

1345
01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:09,319
minutes with gut feelings, right, it's going next.

1346
01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:10,239
Speaker 2: I'll go with mine.

1347
01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:18,199
Speaker 1: Okay, I still think. Can I say Aaron Rodgers is

1348
01:09:18,319 --> 01:09:20,279
starting quarterback in the NFL next year? Is that crazy

1349
01:09:20,399 --> 01:09:24,079
to say? Hmm, it's not crazy. You're running at time

1350
01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:28,920
Aaron Rodgers starts Week one of the NFL season next

1351
01:09:29,039 --> 01:09:32,279
year or some team. I can't pinpoint which team that is. Okay,

1352
01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:36,439
but I'll go Aaron Rodgers starting quarterback. It went on Indianapolis. Well,

1353
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:39,479
they're just gathering up bad quarterbacks and one left and

1354
01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:48,399
right there. Yeah, uh Texans prediction. This one's gone to

1355
01:09:48,399 --> 01:09:49,039
way till April.

1356
01:09:49,119 --> 01:09:49,319
Speaker 16: Ford.

1357
01:09:49,359 --> 01:09:51,399
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna go with They're gonna go offensive line

1358
01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:54,439
in the with two of their first three picks. I

1359
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:57,760
think that feels like that has to happen, and better

1360
01:09:57,800 --> 01:09:59,239
I put it this way, it better happened. Now you

1361
01:09:59,359 --> 01:10:01,800
said this, there to trade up in the first round, Yep,

1362
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:02,600
I'm piggybacking.

1363
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:03,000
Speaker 3: Yep.

1364
01:10:03,359 --> 01:10:06,239
Speaker 1: Texans. All these picks that they're keeping they have, they're

1365
01:10:06,279 --> 01:10:08,920
not keeping them. You know that Casaro gets the gets

1366
01:10:09,079 --> 01:10:11,960
itchy trigger finger, doesn't it. I'll be even more specific,

1367
01:10:12,239 --> 01:10:16,399
Texans trade up in the first round.

1368
01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:19,399
Speaker 2: There's got to be somebody I loved got it for alignment.

1369
01:10:20,199 --> 01:10:24,319
Speaker 1: Okay, two of the first three Texans picks will be

1370
01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:30,439
offensive alignment. Okay, Okay, they will not continue remember you

1371
01:10:30,479 --> 01:10:33,680
went away. They will not draft a wide receiver until

1372
01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:40,159
the I would say until at least the fourth round. One, two,

1373
01:10:40,199 --> 01:10:43,000
and three will be wide receiver free for the Houston Texans. Man.

1374
01:10:43,079 --> 01:10:44,600
Speaker 2: This is the problem you run into the draft. You

1375
01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:45,640
have so many team needs.

1376
01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:48,479
Speaker 1: It's supposed to be a very well stocked defensive tackle draft,

1377
01:10:49,199 --> 01:10:51,640
very well stocked running back draft. You could use both

1378
01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:54,640
of those, but you also need offensive line and wide receiver,

1379
01:10:55,119 --> 01:10:57,279
and generally picks after the fourth round aren't worth.

1380
01:10:57,199 --> 01:10:59,600
Speaker 2: Much and they're cheap, and you're hoping to catch lighting

1381
01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:00,680
up about with those guys.

1382
01:11:02,199 --> 01:11:05,000
Speaker 1: Gosh, so many neats they need all of that. I

1383
01:11:05,119 --> 01:11:08,399
want to see multiple O lineman, wide receiver, running back,

1384
01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:12,199
defensive tackle, even though they signed Sheldon Rankings linebacker depth too.

1385
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:19,119
You just do oh such as say again Jake Canson.

1386
01:11:21,039 --> 01:11:25,199
Most famous Jay Canson ever boys was uh, that was

1387
01:11:25,319 --> 01:11:29,479
the Serial Killer? No, what do you say, Conde that up?

1388
01:11:30,159 --> 01:11:34,159
It's me It's the Texans. No, the character on Melro's Place,

1389
01:11:34,279 --> 01:11:37,720
Jay Canson, I never watched it. You didn't watch melrose Place? No,

1390
01:11:38,319 --> 01:11:40,640
I was like eleven when that was on Connor. If

1391
01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:43,199
you were your age back in the nineties and you

1392
01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:45,920
were a fan of melrose Place, you had have no

1393
01:11:46,079 --> 01:11:51,800
problems with you know what, but the ladies. Correct. There

1394
01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:53,680
was when I was single, before I got Mary, before

1395
01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:58,479
I started dating Kim, I had said melrose Place, watching

1396
01:11:58,520 --> 01:12:00,239
parties at my apartment with me and my guy in

1397
01:12:00,319 --> 01:12:03,000
some of our girl space friends, and you know, it's

1398
01:12:03,239 --> 01:12:06,960
fun and then you break out the the yellow tail wine.

1399
01:12:08,399 --> 01:12:08,840
Speaker 2: Zimas.

1400
01:12:09,159 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, try to get them liquored up, and we place

1401
01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:16,600
some twister and then you'd commit loot and Lasivius X

1402
01:12:17,119 --> 01:12:23,000
and apologize later. I always apologized. All right, last chance

1403

1409
01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:39,640
Speaker 11: Oh?

1410
01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:41,199
Speaker 1: I mean, I just makes up.

1411
01:12:41,399 --> 01:12:43,600
Speaker 17: I'm just to keep Brad waiting on hold longer.

1412
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:44,239
Speaker 1: Oh thank god.

1413
01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:48,840
Speaker 17: Texans will trade up. They will use their first round

1414
01:12:48,880 --> 01:12:50,840
pick in a combination of some of the picks they've

1415
01:12:50,960 --> 01:12:51,399
just gotten.

1416
01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:53,359
Speaker 1: I don't know it to be a fifth or a

1417
01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:54,720
sixth or whatever.

1418
01:12:55,079 --> 01:12:57,119
Speaker 17: I'll use a package of three of those picks to

1419
01:12:57,239 --> 01:13:01,119
trade up in the state the top fifteen to get

1420
01:13:01,159 --> 01:13:05,239
an offensive lineman that they want to help bolster their

1421
01:13:05,279 --> 01:13:09,079
offensive line. And Forrest Whitley will be your seventh inning

1422
01:13:09,159 --> 01:13:11,119
guy to start the season.

1423
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:12,520
Speaker 1: And he won't miss.

1424
01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:15,760
Speaker 5: He will miss fewer than twenty games this year.

1425
01:13:17,319 --> 01:13:19,920
Speaker 1: What do you mean mont won't miss? You mean like

1426
01:13:20,039 --> 01:13:21,840
injured this time? Yeah?

1427
01:13:22,039 --> 01:13:25,720
Speaker 17: Yeah, he'll make one start up at I l but

1428
01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:27,560
first to a blessed or something.

1429
01:13:27,800 --> 01:13:29,800
Speaker 3: But it won't be for more than twenty games.

1430
01:13:29,840 --> 01:13:33,319
Speaker 1: You cannot make predictions on injuries like that is rando.

1431
01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:34,359
Speaker 2: That's a rando.

1432
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:34,680
Speaker 10: One.

1433
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:40,800
Speaker 2: Oh, hold this a rando. That's true. Don't come out

1434
01:13:40,840 --> 01:13:44,880
of my owm bit. That's ridiculous. I'm just kidding, all right, Brian,

1435
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:45,880
thank you very much.

1436
01:13:46,640 --> 01:13:51,000
Speaker 1: I will piggyback off of the conversation about Forest Whitley. Okay,

1437
01:13:51,239 --> 01:13:52,239
Fort Whitley will get.

1438
01:13:52,119 --> 01:13:58,680
Speaker 2: At least five holds for the Astros this year, Brock.

1439
01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:02,279
Speaker 1: Then hold on fast. Did we get one from Connor?

1440
01:14:02,319 --> 01:14:03,880
And I didn't write it down? Connor, did you say anything?

1441
01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:06,560
Speaker 2: We ain't got one yet. Yeah, I haven't given how

1442
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:10,720
many holds. Five at least I'll take that.

1443
01:14:11,479 --> 01:14:14,000
Speaker 1: I got another one for you. Yeah, Josh Hater over

1444
01:14:14,079 --> 01:14:19,119
forty saves, say what we's soup. It's gonna have a

1445
01:14:19,159 --> 01:14:22,359
bounce back year. The Astros offense isn't good enough to

1446
01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:24,920
have them blowing people out. There's gonna be a lot

1447
01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:27,439
of close games like last year. You're gonna Josh Hater

1448
01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:29,800
a lot. He didn't blow a lot of saves last year,

1449
01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:33,159
but he had a lot of losses. Bad situations. Yeah,

1450
01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:38,800
forty saves plus Connor your last ones, my friend, good luck.

1451
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:43,239
I will go. Rockets win next four to go on

1452
01:14:43,319 --> 01:14:47,800
a seven game win and then some some future ones.

1453
01:14:47,840 --> 01:14:52,560
I'll say, Texans make a splash at wide receiver. Rockets

1454
01:14:52,600 --> 01:14:56,000
win a playoff series in six games? What hold on? Jeez,

1455
01:14:56,039 --> 01:14:57,800
hold on. This guy's doing the whole rest of the

1456
01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:03,439
sports well because it for him. He's gotta twenty nine. Okay,

1457
01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:06,279
say this again. Rockets win their next four games. Then

1458
01:15:06,279 --> 01:15:08,680
they win their first round series in six games. Yes,

1459
01:15:09,279 --> 01:15:11,479
Texas tek a splash at wide receiver, and then if

1460
01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:13,640
only got one more, what do you mean splash at

1461
01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:15,880
wide receiver like a splash signing.

1462
01:15:17,399 --> 01:15:20,079
Speaker 2: You're gonna lose on that money was last year? You're

1463
01:15:20,119 --> 01:15:23,159
losing that. I could trade somebody, don't think so.

1464
01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:26,640
Speaker 1: And then I'll say, the Carolina Hurricanes are your NHL champions,

1465
01:15:26,960 --> 01:15:29,800
SAMI champions. By the way, can you help anybody? So

1466
01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:32,439
you got my Rockets winning a playoff series? Who are

1467
01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:33,920
they playing? And what seed are they gonna be in?

1468
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:34,119
Speaker 11: Man?

1469
01:15:34,119 --> 01:15:34,640
Speaker 3: I ask.

1470
01:15:36,239 --> 01:15:37,479
Speaker 1: I didn't think that far ahead? Can I?

1471
01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:37,680
Speaker 13: Can?

1472
01:15:37,760 --> 01:15:40,319
Speaker 1: I think about it. I'm gonna go and give you

1473
01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:43,720
my gut feeling who we're facing. I think we're gonna

1474
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:46,640
finish either fourth or fifth, fourth against thee and we're

1475
01:15:46,640 --> 01:15:48,560
gonna play the Memphis Grizzlies and we're gonna beat them.

1476
01:15:50,039 --> 01:15:51,920
Speaker 2: Then what's gonna happen in the second round against the Thunder?

1477
01:15:52,279 --> 01:15:55,479
Speaker 1: We're gonna pray a lot. Okay. By the way, the

1478
01:15:55,600 --> 01:16:00,479
Nuggets destroyed the Thunder in Oklahoma City last night. It

1479
01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:01,119
can be done.

1480
01:16:01,159 --> 01:16:01,720
Speaker 2: Sports RV.

1481
01:16:03,279 --> 01:16:06,279
Speaker 1: Over seven games, it can be done.

1482
01:16:06,399 --> 01:16:07,000
Speaker 2: Sports RV.

1483
01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:13,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, they can. They can nick one. Can they steal four?

1484
01:16:14,920 --> 01:16:17,000
Speaker 2: Your mount? The basketball gods are probably not.

1485
01:16:17,199 --> 01:16:19,079
Speaker 1: But that's okay. We'll come to that bridging across it.

1486
01:16:19,159 --> 01:16:23,920
Let's get the let's get the three seat. It's possible. Probably, Sorry,

1487
01:16:24,199 --> 01:16:26,119
the only way you I don't think you're gonna jump, Denbra.

1488
01:16:26,319 --> 01:16:28,640
You're hoping that with Lebron out, the Lakers go on

1489
01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:29,720
some Laura losing skid.

1490
01:16:30,359 --> 01:16:30,600
Speaker 3: Hmm.

1491
01:16:31,159 --> 01:16:34,000
Speaker 1: By the way, last night, Luka, Doncic your favorite player

1492
01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:37,520
not over efficient last night. I'm not saying here's your

1493
01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:40,199
favorite player. He's playing himself into shape again, give him

1494
01:16:40,199 --> 01:16:43,039
some time. I mean he has always been dowey. He's

1495
01:16:43,039 --> 01:16:45,399
always playing himself into shape. Yeah, but that's that's what

1496
01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:47,520
he was doing to the day one of his NBA career.

1497
01:16:48,479 --> 01:16:54,079
Look at Dodge last night eight of twenty six. Lord

1498
01:16:55,119 --> 01:16:58,520
three of ten from three, finished with twenty two points,

1499
01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:02,800
twelve rebounds, twelve assists eight of twenty six. I'll take

1500
01:17:02,840 --> 01:17:05,560
my chances when you shoot eight of twenty six. He

1501
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:07,800
has been a good, not great three point shooter in

1502
01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:11,720
his career. Yeap. By the way, I mentioned Denver last

1503
01:17:11,800 --> 01:17:14,840
night beating the Nuggets, one beating the thunder to say

1504
01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:18,920
one forty twenty seven. Uh Nicola Jokic thirty five points,

1505
01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:24,319
eighteen rebounds, eight assist. He was fifteen of twenty from

1506
01:17:24,359 --> 01:17:30,720
the floor, seventy five percent from the field. I got

1507

1552

Larry and Katie on The Matt Thomas Show at Ross

1553

at eleven and fifty.

1554
01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:51,680
Speaker 2: Larry, what's in your gut?

1555
01:19:53,199 --> 01:19:55,560
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's really ironic. The last time I called in

1556
01:19:56,119 --> 01:19:58,159
was when Matt wasn't there and we were there at

1557
01:19:58,199 --> 01:19:58,920
the block.

1558
01:19:59,520 --> 01:19:59,640
Speaker 3: Uh.

1559
01:20:00,279 --> 01:20:04,720
Speaker 10: But I was watching the Cubs game on Sunday I

1560
01:20:04,760 --> 01:20:08,119
have MLB and Tucker came up and they mentioned he

1561
01:20:08,279 --> 01:20:11,560
was over nineteen and he flies out his first time,

1562
01:20:12,279 --> 01:20:14,640
oh for twenty. The next time up, they had this

1563
01:20:15,119 --> 01:20:19,199
minor league picture that Grew's baton practice pitch in there

1564
01:20:19,239 --> 01:20:21,279
and he hits the home run, So he's one for

1565
01:20:21,439 --> 01:20:24,960
twenty one. So my prediction is that the Boobirds will

1566
01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:28,920
be out in Chicago by say May first. You hit

1567
01:20:29,039 --> 01:20:32,560
less than two sixty less than twenty five homers.

1568
01:20:34,520 --> 01:20:38,119
Speaker 1: So you're calling him a underperforming Kyle Tucker or a

1569
01:20:38,199 --> 01:20:39,319
flight out bust.

1570
01:20:40,800 --> 01:20:46,960
Speaker 10: Underperforming. And also, uh, I will be betting under the

1571
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:49,800
eighty eight and a half wins the Astros this year.

1572
01:20:50,960 --> 01:20:52,560
Speaker 2: I've seen eighty six and a half. Where'd you see

1573
01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:53,239
eighty eight and a half?

1574
01:20:54,039 --> 01:20:56,520
Speaker 10: Well, it started, it started eighty eight, but then he

1575
01:20:56,640 --> 01:21:02,479
went down, So everybody's on the under. If you would

1576
01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:06,880
like to hear some information on Bregman, I've got an

1577
01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:13,079
inside school. The reason he didn't want to come back

1578
01:21:13,159 --> 01:21:18,199
to Houston was because he saw what happened with Springer Korea,

1579
01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:23,399
Gonzalees built trying how differently they were treated, and he

1580
01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:28,000
was really tired of getting disrespected. And when we talked

1581
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:32,920
about it, he knew that he and up as an astro,

1582
01:21:33,279 --> 01:21:35,560
that he would never get the respect that he deserved.

1583
01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:39,319
And I agreed with him one hundred percent and so

1584
01:21:39,479 --> 01:21:42,000
that's why. And the whole time he was wanting to

1585
01:21:42,079 --> 01:21:44,920
go to Boston because of the Green Monster. He felt

1586
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:46,680
like his swing was meant for that, so.

1587
01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:50,800
Speaker 1: He so, you know, you know Alan personally, Larry.

1588
01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:55,640
Speaker 10: Well, I fished a bat in practice from twenty fifteen

1589
01:21:55,680 --> 01:22:00,960
to twenty twenty two for home games, and so yeah,

1590
01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:04,479
I got to know him a little bit. So I

1591
01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:08,640
would never say what he said exactly, but that's kind

1592
01:22:08,640 --> 01:22:13,000
of phrasing paraphrasing what he said, and that had a

1593
01:22:13,079 --> 01:22:14,439
lot to do with his decision.

1594
01:22:17,359 --> 01:22:18,000
Speaker 11: I think.

1595
01:22:19,479 --> 01:22:22,279
Speaker 1: Larry and came down to he was looking for the

1596
01:22:22,359 --> 01:22:26,119
most money. He would have swallowed his perceived lack of

1597
01:22:26,239 --> 01:22:29,640
respect bit if the Astros would have given him forty

1598
01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:31,880
five million dollars a year for three years with an

1599
01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:34,359
opt out. I think Alex was looking for the big

1600
01:22:34,439 --> 01:22:37,359
bank and do as do most professional athletes, as do

1601
01:22:37,439 --> 01:22:41,199
most of us in society. So I don't think this

1602
01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:45,359
was it was about not feeling the respect. It was

1603
01:22:45,359 --> 01:22:46,039
about I'm.

1604
01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:46,319
Speaker 2: Looking for the.

1605
01:22:48,079 --> 01:22:48,319
Speaker 1: He was.

1606
01:22:48,439 --> 01:22:49,800
Speaker 10: He was actually attired of abuse.

1607
01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:54,479
Speaker 1: He really was. Not what abuse are you speaking of?

1608
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:55,239
Speaker 13: What was?

1609
01:22:55,399 --> 01:22:57,960
Speaker 1: I don't think he was abused the.

1610
01:22:58,159 --> 01:23:02,359
Speaker 10: Verbal abuse from who uh, the fans when he was

1611
01:23:02,439 --> 01:23:02,920
on the road.

1612
01:23:03,479 --> 01:23:05,720
Speaker 1: Wait, what does that to do with him being an Astro.

1613
01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:07,239
He's gonna get a views on the road anyway, if

1614
01:23:07,279 --> 01:23:08,960
he's a Boston Red Sox. What are you talking about?

1615
01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:12,079
Speaker 3: That's not That's not what he said.

1616
01:23:12,560 --> 01:23:15,520
Speaker 10: That's not what happened with Springer in Korea, Gonzales and

1617
01:23:15,560 --> 01:23:19,319
Beltran when all they when they all left, Uh, they

1618
01:23:19,359 --> 01:23:24,920
were treated completely different. And he knew when he was

1619
01:23:24,960 --> 01:23:27,600
in an Astros uniform that he was gonna get disrespected,

1620
01:23:27,640 --> 01:23:31,399
and he didn't want to end up his career being disrespected.

1621
01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:35,960
And I agree with him one hundred percent. You watch

1622
01:23:36,039 --> 01:23:38,760
what happens in Boston. They're not gonna boo him in.

1623
01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:40,640
Speaker 5: Boston Red Sox.

1624
01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:41,439
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?

1625
01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,159
Speaker 1: Boston Red Sox players don't boot Boston.

1626
01:23:44,880 --> 01:23:45,520
Speaker 2: Red Sox fan.

1627
01:23:45,560 --> 01:23:48,239
Speaker 1: I mean, they just don't. I mean, I'm gonna, yeah,

1628
01:23:48,239 --> 01:23:52,800
I'm gonna. I'm not buying this. I'm sorry. Larry's got

1629
01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:53,880
the inside dirt, Maddie.

1630
01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:55,840
Speaker 2: I think he's making it up.

1631
01:23:56,840 --> 01:24:00,880
Speaker 1: Okay, you think you think Alex Pregnant's walking around going Man,

1632
01:24:01,199 --> 01:24:03,319
people can't just sit in your booming's and more in

1633
01:24:03,319 --> 01:24:05,239
an Astro uniform. I don't want to take any more

1634
01:24:05,279 --> 01:24:10,079
of this all loney, Alex is not not a wallflower.

1635
01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:17,399
Say I don't know, Uh, go ahead say it. I'm

1636
01:24:17,439 --> 01:24:20,720
gonna say that if Larry was throwing VP in twenty

1637
01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:23,000
one and twenty two, that maybe Alex could have sit

1638
01:24:23,079 --> 01:24:25,600
and had those sentiments now in twenty four.

1639
01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:27,159
Speaker 2: I'm sure he doesn't care for twenty five.

1640
01:24:27,279 --> 01:24:27,359
Speaker 18: Now.

1641
01:24:28,279 --> 01:24:30,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's not fun to get booed, but

1642
01:24:30,359 --> 01:24:33,920
that's that's life. Baby, you're a professional athlete. Well, you

1643
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:37,840
said it ruined Josel Twov's twenty twenty season. He was

1644
01:24:37,880 --> 01:24:43,119
beat up about the cheating scandal. I did you sure?

1645
01:24:43,399 --> 01:24:45,279
Speaker 2: I thought it was the opposite of that. Now we

1646
01:24:45,439 --> 01:24:45,880
argued on that.

1647
01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:50,479
Speaker 1: No, I think Alex pregnant is a lot tougher than that.

1648
01:24:51,479 --> 01:24:54,520
I think Alex Bregman is looking for the cache. I

1649
01:24:54,560 --> 01:24:56,840
think so too. I think maybe he did have. Well,

1650
01:24:56,840 --> 01:24:59,880
first of all, his first concern was money. They are

1651
01:25:00,199 --> 01:25:02,520
him six years and a two hundred million dollars. He

1652
01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:05,239
would have taken losing Larry's train of thought that when

1653
01:25:05,359 --> 01:25:08,039
Boston goes to play the Seattle Mariners, Alex Bartman's not

1654
01:25:08,079 --> 01:25:08,680
gonna get booted.

1655
01:25:08,680 --> 01:25:10,079
Speaker 2: I find it to be impossible to believe.

1656
01:25:10,359 --> 01:25:13,319
Speaker 1: I think he'll still get boot Yeah, all right, we

1657
01:25:13,359 --> 01:25:16,600
gotta get going quickly here, Chris Jersey Village, Chris, what

1658
01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:17,199
is in your gun?

1659
01:25:17,199 --> 01:25:18,079
Speaker 2: At eleven fifty five?

1660
01:25:19,079 --> 01:25:20,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, Larry's right.

1661
01:25:20,399 --> 01:25:25,319
Speaker 19: I mean, after the whole scandal, Alex totally changed his

1662
01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:29,840
persona from the Will Baryl carrying guy to you know,

1663
01:25:29,920 --> 01:25:32,800
I'm going to hide in the corner because everyone's yelling

1664
01:25:32,840 --> 01:25:35,119
at me. So I could definitely see that. I mean,

1665
01:25:35,159 --> 01:25:38,239
Alex right now is being worshiped in Boston. He is

1666
01:25:38,359 --> 01:25:40,920
like he's never part of the Astros the way they're

1667
01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:41,920
treating him in Boston.

1668
01:25:42,079 --> 01:25:44,039
Speaker 1: So I definitely agree with Larry.

1669
01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:46,279
Speaker 5: My my gut feeling is.

1670
01:25:48,319 --> 01:25:50,920
Speaker 2: Sorry, but there's something, there's some technical problems we have.

1671
01:25:51,359 --> 01:25:54,239
Speaker 19: Yeah, you know what, caller's gonna have good points. Sometimes,

1672
01:25:54,279 --> 01:25:56,439
you guys aren't the only ones that have good point.

1673
01:25:58,399 --> 01:26:01,920
Speaker 1: I don't know that's at all. I don't. So you're

1674
01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:05,319

1714
01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:03,520
and you said, oh yeah, no, no way. And then

1715

these call jose Al to MVP season says. These callers

1748
01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:35,159
are talking about the national media loving Bregman getting as

1749
01:29:35,159 --> 01:29:37,479
a Red Sox, not just Red Sox fans. Come on, Matt,

1750
01:29:37,520 --> 01:29:39,680
here's a good one. Rockets will not make the top eight.

1751
01:29:39,840 --> 01:29:42,479
These brad kits keep on coming. Stop it. Let him

1752
01:29:42,520 --> 01:29:45,279
be one more Bobby slowan head coach after this after

1753
01:29:45,399 --> 01:29:46,439

1759
01:29:58,119 --> 01:29:58,479
Speaker 9: I was the.

1760
01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:03,960
Speaker 15: Cleaner during the during the year. And the reason Bregman

1761
01:30:04,079 --> 01:30:06,359
was really pushing to go to Foster was there was

1762
01:30:06,439 --> 01:30:08,640
a corner behind the green Monster that if he really

1763
01:30:08,760 --> 01:30:11,399
liked to hide in when everybody was booing, and he thought,

1764
01:30:11,399 --> 01:30:13,479
if you could get that eighty one games a year,

1765
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:14,239
that he was going.

1766
01:30:14,239 --> 01:30:15,079
Speaker 13: To be in a better spot.

1767
01:30:15,239 --> 01:30:17,600

1771
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:32,760
got to think about what you say before you save them.

1772
01:30:32,800 --> 01:30:35,720
It's been a long rookie season for him in Thompson. Yeah,

1773
01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:41,600
and and that Bregman is human. But Bregman's about the

1774
01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:43,279
cash period.

1775
01:30:43,039 --> 01:30:46,000
Speaker 2: In the story. That's why it's why you higher Scott Borrows.

1790
01:31:31,319 --> 01:31:34,800
still turn down the illegal formation offense under seventy eight.

1791
01:31:34,920 --> 01:31:37,840
Speaker 1: He did it again. This down's the prime. Let's start down.

1792
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:40,600
He did it again. Illegal formation seventy.

1793
01:31:40,319 --> 01:31:43,199
Speaker 5: Eight offense in the seventy years on the scrimbles.

1794
01:31:43,520 --> 01:31:47,079
Speaker 1: That is five penalties called against Laramie Tunsel.

1795
01:31:46,960 --> 01:31:48,199
Speaker 5: Often into seventy years.

1796
01:31:49,600 --> 01:31:53,000
Speaker 1: It's so down, holy cow, with this rough tackle. For

1797
01:31:53,119 --> 01:31:56,119
the Houston Texas, all they do is commit penalties first

1798
01:31:56,159 --> 01:31:58,840
and foremost. You should go up to Laramie dunsele and

1799
01:31:59,279 --> 01:32:01,840
just to make sure he's okay, not to be like

1800
01:32:02,199 --> 01:32:05,239
you know, dog. All these penalties today or anything. Just

1801
01:32:05,319 --> 01:32:08,039
are you okay? Is everything okay? Last time I saw you,

1802
01:32:08,199 --> 01:32:11,920
you were shutting everybody down. But now Jeremy Tumsil had

1803
01:32:11,920 --> 01:32:13,680
six penalties called against him today.

1804
01:32:13,920 --> 01:32:17,560
Speaker 6: Jay got first down. Here's the kid and they blow

1805
01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:20,920
the play dead. Looks like a false start of the Texans.

1806
01:32:21,600 --> 01:32:22,520
Let's find out who.

1807
01:32:22,479 --> 01:32:26,199
Speaker 5: Aboard the snap fall start offense number seventy eight. It's

1808
01:32:26,199 --> 01:32:27,119
a five year old penalty.

1809
01:32:27,359 --> 01:32:27,960
Speaker 16: Let's go first.

1810
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:30,720
Speaker 1: But he got it out of the way early every

1811
01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:33,560
week though, I mean, you're a pro Bowl player.

1812
01:32:33,640 --> 01:32:37,479
Speaker 5: There's no excuse for that's nine.

1813
01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:42,279
Speaker 1: Back to the fifteen weego. You kiss off under ware?

1814
01:32:44,640 --> 01:32:47,920
Who ex quarterback? Who defends usually offensive lineman. That's what

1815
01:32:48,039 --> 01:32:57,000
quarterbacks typically dock es. Yeah, you can hear him slapping

1816
01:32:57,079 --> 01:33:00,239
it like sounds like notes or something sounds at the

1817
01:33:00,279 --> 01:33:04,640
table before. That's one of my favorite things about radio.

1818
01:33:04,800 --> 01:33:06,760
Listening to radio is when somebody that you can hear

1819
01:33:06,840 --> 01:33:10,640
them like grab the microphone or slap something like you

1820
01:33:10,760 --> 01:33:14,000
can hear the frustration. I love it. I should do

1821
01:33:14,039 --> 01:33:16,760
a better job of that. And you grabbed the mic

1822
01:33:16,760 --> 01:33:17,479
when you get upset.

1823
01:33:17,560 --> 01:33:17,760
Speaker 6: I do.

1824
01:33:18,439 --> 01:33:20,880
Speaker 1: Somebody says that people were saying mean things about Alex.

1825
01:33:21,600 --> 01:33:27,079
We can hear you ripping your headphones off. Do I

1826
01:33:27,199 --> 01:33:29,880
think Bregman didn't like the criticism. Of course somebody would

1827
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:32,520
like it. But he's a big boy. He's got thick skin.

1828
01:33:33,079 --> 01:33:34,640
If you're not, if you don't thick skin, you're not

1829
01:33:34,760 --> 01:33:39,279
playing professional sports. Period into story. But it wasn't the

1830
01:33:39,359 --> 01:33:42,600
number one reason why I left, not even close. And

1831
01:33:42,680 --> 01:33:45,079
he's gonna be booed. And if you think he got

1832
01:33:45,159 --> 01:33:47,640
boots as an astro, as a Yankee, imagine what he's

1833
01:33:47,640 --> 01:33:49,359
gonna be booed like a Yankee sitting when he goes

1834
01:33:49,399 --> 01:33:52,199
there three times a year. He's gonna get double booted.

1835
01:33:52,199 --> 01:33:54,359
I guess two times year now, right, it's twice. You

1836
01:33:54,479 --> 01:33:57,199
go twice. Now you don't go three times anymore with

1837
01:33:57,279 --> 01:34:00,199
bounce schedule. Yeah, he is gonna he is going to

1838
01:34:00,279 --> 01:34:04,119
get ripped a new one at Yankee Stadium. He's got

1839
01:34:04,199 --> 01:34:06,439
to be. Is he the most hated person in Yankee

1840
01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:09,239
Stadium now as he was an astro and now he's

1841
01:34:09,279 --> 01:34:11,359
with the Red Sox. Yes, I mean that's a double dip.

1842
01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:14,560
That's a double dip. Time now for the News at

1843
01:34:14,600 --> 01:34:19,560
noon at twelve ten and the Texans News. Ross is

1844
01:34:19,840 --> 01:34:21,279
just overflowing here.

1845
01:34:21,439 --> 01:34:23,399
Speaker 16: Oh my goodness, bad do we have a lot of

1846
01:34:23,479 --> 01:34:26,319
Texans news for you, the news at dude here Old

1847
01:34:26,359 --> 01:34:29,800
Sports Talk seven ninety. Of course the lead A story

1848
01:34:29,960 --> 01:34:35,079
of the day would be the Houston Texans trading Laramie

1849
01:34:35,159 --> 01:34:38,520
Tunsul to the Washington Commanders.

1850
01:34:39,520 --> 01:34:45,479
Speaker 1: It's a third and seventh rounder in twenty twenty five

1851
01:34:45,640 --> 01:34:49,720
and a second and a fourth rounder in twenty twenty six,

1852
01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:54,720
all coming back from the Washington Commanders. The Texans are

1853
01:34:54,840 --> 01:34:58,439
also sending back. Why is it not in this article

1854
01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:00,840
they're sending back a third of a fourth I believe

1855
01:35:01,760 --> 01:35:04,720
are the Houston Texans. As far as the full compensation

1856
01:35:04,840 --> 01:35:09,439
for the trade up. Our good friend Aaron Wilson was

1857
01:35:09,520 --> 01:35:11,880
on the A team yesterday. Here's what he had to say.

1858
01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:16,159
Why did this happen? Why did the Texans trade away

1859
01:35:16,239 --> 01:35:16,920
Laramie Tunzel.

1860
01:35:17,840 --> 01:35:20,239
Speaker 13: The way it was explained to the Tunsil camp is

1861
01:35:20,319 --> 01:35:22,720
that it was in their best interest and they thought

1862
01:35:22,800 --> 01:35:25,479
his best interest to part ways at this time. It

1863
01:35:25,720 --> 01:35:27,760
was a situation where if they have some big things

1864
01:35:27,840 --> 01:35:31,000
coming down the pike financially, they'll make their extinly the

1865
01:35:31,079 --> 01:35:35,039
highest paid corner. I believe this offseason and then a

1866
01:35:35,159 --> 01:35:38,760
year from now Will Anderson Junior and CG. Straw will

1867
01:35:38,800 --> 01:35:40,359
become eligible for new contracts.

1868
01:35:40,920 --> 01:35:43,640
Speaker 1: So sounds like there were a lot of financial implications.

1869
01:35:43,920 --> 01:35:47,399
Of course, the money comes off the books. We figure

1870
01:35:47,479 --> 01:35:49,159
of course with the culture fit as well.

1871
01:35:49,640 --> 01:35:50,399
Speaker 2: You add it all up.

1872
01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:53,720
Speaker 1: Getting some pretty good conversation from Washington. Laramie Tunzel is

1873
01:35:53,760 --> 01:35:58,119
a Washington commander. The hardest thing to comprehend and I

1874
01:35:58,239 --> 01:36:02,119
understand when this happened a lot. Yeah, today was you

1875
01:36:02,279 --> 01:36:04,920
took your worst position group and you made it worse,

1876
01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:09,159
and that is that is something that has to be fixed.

1877
01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:13,479
I don't think the Texans are going to sit with

1878
01:36:13,560 --> 01:36:15,760
the five guys that are currently on There are lads

1879
01:36:15,840 --> 01:36:18,239
Scouting Guide, Draft depth chart and go.

1880
01:36:18,600 --> 01:36:21,239
Speaker 2: We were set they're going to go having the draft.

1881
01:36:21,279 --> 01:36:23,159
Speaker 1: I've already made the gut feeling prediction that they're going

1882
01:36:23,199 --> 01:36:25,800
to go at least two of the first three rounds

1883
01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:27,760
or their first three picks of independing what they do

1884
01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:30,239
and moving picks around, will be offensive linemen.

1885
01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:33,039
Speaker 2: They're not going to stand pat They've.

1886
01:36:32,880 --> 01:36:37,520
Speaker 1: Got an amazing quarterback they've got to protect. They just

1887
01:36:37,600 --> 01:36:39,560
weren't satisfied with what happened last year, and I don't

1888
01:36:39,600 --> 01:36:41,439
blame them because you saw it firsthand.

1889
01:36:41,880 --> 01:36:42,600
Speaker 2: As of this moment.

1890
01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:44,680
Speaker 1: Pinning what happened to the draft, Aaron Wilson also went

1891
01:36:44,720 --> 01:36:47,279
on to say likely Titus Howard had left tackle with

1892
01:36:47,399 --> 01:36:51,039
Blake Fisher at right tackle, but that's fall up for

1893
01:36:51,520 --> 01:36:55,479
the yea change of course, there are certainly spots up

1894
01:36:55,640 --> 01:36:59,720
for grabs for the Houston Texans well, including getting shipped

1895
01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:06,880
off won Kenyon Green traded to for CJ. Gardner Johnson

1896
01:37:07,800 --> 01:37:10,800
of the Philadelphia Eagles. Looks like they're trying to shed

1897
01:37:10,880 --> 01:37:12,840
some salary as well as they have to pay a

1898
01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:16,239
bunch of guys. So CJ. Gardner Johnson changing homes for

1899
01:37:16,359 --> 01:37:20,359
a third straight season in exchange for Kenyon Green. He's

1900
01:37:20,399 --> 01:37:24,239
a Houston Texan. Kenyan Green basically been a bust for

1901
01:37:24,399 --> 01:37:28,680
the Texans, and CD Gardner Johnson a pretty good safety.

1902
01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:30,960
And oh, by the way, the clock is on Casario

1903
01:37:31,079 --> 01:37:32,960
to fix this. By the way, this offensive line he

1904
01:37:33,079 --> 01:37:35,600
created this mess. Yeah, he's gonna he's trying to fix it,

1905
01:37:36,079 --> 01:37:41,279
and I and thankfully to make those on board. Thankfully. CG.

1906
01:37:41,399 --> 01:37:46,960
Gardner Johnson, a Houston Texan. Also Texans signing guard Laken

1907
01:37:47,199 --> 01:37:50,319
Tomlinson too, a one year, four point two five million

1908
01:37:50,439 --> 01:37:51,119
dollar deal.

1909
01:37:51,359 --> 01:37:52,319
Speaker 2: Looks mean in the photo.

1910
01:37:53,560 --> 01:37:57,880
Speaker 1: He was a pro bowler in twenty twenty one, but

1911
01:37:58,199 --> 01:38:03,960
since then, just according to one datapointment, the FF grade YEP.

1912
01:38:05,119 --> 01:38:07,239
In his Pro Bowl season, he was graded as seventy

1913
01:38:07,319 --> 01:38:10,520
three thirteenth out of eighty two guards. Last year forty

1914
01:38:10,560 --> 01:38:13,319
four out of seventy seven guards, which a sixty two

1915
01:38:13,439 --> 01:38:16,279
point sounds like a depth depth thing there, raid yeah,

1916
01:38:16,399 --> 01:38:19,279
depth guy, look yeap sixty two. I'll tell you this,

1917
01:38:19,359 --> 01:38:22,239
that's better than Shack Mason. He was the forty fourth

1918
01:38:22,279 --> 01:38:25,439
guard Shack Mason of forty seventh. So your winning, yeah,

1919
01:38:25,880 --> 01:38:30,279
in incremental improvement with Laken Tomlinson coming over from the

1920
01:38:30,319 --> 01:38:32,560
Seattle Seahawks, he is thirty three years old.

1921
01:38:34,239 --> 01:38:37,159
Speaker 2: Looks like a filter to me. I would agree as well.

1922
01:38:37,199 --> 01:38:39,199
Speaker 1: And there's you news in it and Rockets won last

1923
01:38:39,279 --> 01:38:41,680
night and then Rockets as I said, the Texans also

1924
01:38:41,800 --> 01:38:45,439
have re signed Mario Williams or Mario Edwards. Mario Williams

1925
01:38:45,600 --> 01:38:48,119
all right words, Mario Edwards, Edwards Williams and Mario Willims

1926
01:38:48,159 --> 01:38:50,960
would be hey be in his late thirties. Quite a surprise.

1927
01:38:51,800 --> 01:38:53,199

01:40:08,560 --> 01:40:13,800
Speaker 8: Matt Thomas Show with Ross Now on Sports Talk seven ninety.

1953
01:40:20,520 --> 01:40:22,359
Speaker 1: We got the NFL rewind coming up at the bottom

1954
01:40:22,399 --> 01:40:23,880
of the hour believe it or not today all things

1955
01:40:23,880 --> 01:40:26,319
about Larry Tensel at one fifteen, and we're giving away

1956
01:40:26,439 --> 01:40:28,399
what good rodeo tickets? Correct? Am I right on this?

1957
01:40:29,359 --> 01:40:30,640
Speaker 2: Or at least decent rodeo tickets?

1958
01:40:30,720 --> 01:40:30,880
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1959
01:40:30,880 --> 01:40:32,640
Speaker 2: We got tickets to go see Journey at the Rodeo.

1960
01:40:33,119 --> 01:40:35,600
Wow with that new singer.

1961
01:40:36,359 --> 01:40:38,520
Speaker 1: He's not new, he's been there forever. That new singer

1962
01:40:38,560 --> 01:40:40,640
that's been there forever. And also a pair of tickets

1963
01:40:40,680 --> 01:40:44,600
to see the Psychedelic Furs. What's your favorite psychonelic first song?

1964
01:40:45,680 --> 01:40:46,159
Speaker 18: One with you?

1965
01:40:46,560 --> 01:40:51,600
Speaker 2: Mine's Gravity Define Gravity. No, it's just the name of

1966
01:40:51,600 --> 01:40:51,800
the song.

1967
01:40:51,960 --> 01:40:52,319
Speaker 3: Okay.

1968
01:40:52,640 --> 01:40:52,720
Speaker 11: Uh.

1969
01:40:53,439 --> 01:40:55,600
Speaker 2: I'm really bothered by this, And I don't know why.

1970
01:40:56,720 --> 01:41:01,279
Speaker 1: Dark Pressed Again had a chief transformation off sir by

1971
01:41:01,319 --> 01:41:04,600
the name of Ryan Green in September of last year.

1972
01:41:04,720 --> 01:41:07,079
He said, we're more likely to lose money if we

1973
01:41:07,119 --> 01:41:12,840
start charging for bags. He says the fact that free

1974
01:41:12,880 --> 01:41:15,239
bags is a key driver of choice creates a risk

1975
01:41:15,279 --> 01:41:18,159
that customers may choose the competition if we change the policy.

1976
01:41:19,840 --> 01:41:20,960
Speaker 2: They fired him last month.

1977
01:41:23,800 --> 01:41:26,640
Speaker 1: Jobama said, ain't nobody got time for you telling the

1978
01:41:26,720 --> 01:41:29,000
world how our marketing goes. Ain't nobody got time for

1979
01:41:29,039 --> 01:41:36,159
you not opening up revenue streams. This is Southwest Public traded,

1980
01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:39,000
I would assume, So why, Yeah, I don't think I

1981
01:41:39,039 --> 01:41:41,880
think most airlines are okay. By the way, do not

1982
01:41:41,960 --> 01:41:43,720
go look at your Fura one case today.

1983
01:41:45,119 --> 01:41:46,279
Speaker 2: Or in the last couple of weeks.

1984
01:41:48,359 --> 01:41:51,399
Speaker 1: Let's wrong with our America. We got my eggs are

1985
01:41:51,439 --> 01:41:53,680
cost some warm, my Foura one case dropping, my gas

1986
01:41:53,760 --> 01:41:57,600
prices remain consistent. That's good at least that's yeah. I

1987
01:41:57,640 --> 01:42:04,239
got Dark Breast charging for bags. Now you charge Houston

1988
01:42:04,399 --> 01:42:07,560
LA charge instead of charging two fifty, charge two sixty five.

1989
01:42:08,600 --> 01:42:11,279
Keep your free bags, Keep keep that keep that core

1990
01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:15,199
Dark Breast airlines. Yeah, as I said, customer fan base, please,

1991
01:42:15,399 --> 01:42:19,359
I have multiple times, I would say even close to

1992
01:42:19,399 --> 01:42:21,279
fifty percent of not more of the time I've traveled

1993
01:42:21,359 --> 01:42:25,600
via air considered Southwest simply for the free bags. I

1994
01:42:26,239 --> 01:42:28,960
live closer to inter way, closer than I do to Hobby.

1995
01:42:29,079 --> 01:42:31,680
But when the dolt, when the kids and my wife

1996
01:42:31,760 --> 01:42:34,520
go there, there are one bag, two bag people. So yeah,

1997
01:42:34,560 --> 01:42:36,479
that's four or five bags and three of them huge.

1998
01:42:36,600 --> 01:42:39,000
That's the significant savings. We have gone and taken the

1999
01:42:39,560 --> 01:42:41,800
drive down to Hobby for that. It's like two hundred

2000
01:42:41,800 --> 01:42:45,520
bucks a trip. Yeah for sometimes sometimes dark breast what

2001
01:42:45,720 --> 01:42:49,399
you're doing, brah. Now again, their seats are full, but

2002
01:42:49,479 --> 01:42:55,319
aren't most playing seats full anyway? Just pray to the

2003
01:42:55,399 --> 01:42:56,359
almighty dollar, Matt.

2004
01:42:57,880 --> 01:42:59,960
Speaker 2: I guess this is a sad day. I am say.

2005
01:43:00,119 --> 01:43:03,399
Speaker 1: It's almost like what's a tried and true formula in marketing.

2006
01:43:03,479 --> 01:43:07,159
I mean, it's like the dollar fifty costco dog be

2007
01:43:07,279 --> 01:43:08,520
making make it five bucks?

2008
01:43:08,760 --> 01:43:12,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, Doc Brass, my man, my man, my lady.

2009
01:43:12,399 --> 01:43:13,159
Anybody works out.

2010
01:43:13,159 --> 01:43:16,840
Speaker 1: I mean you guys have lived on slightly more attractive

2011
01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:21,560
flooed attendance with a sense of humor, really slightly.

2012
01:43:22,000 --> 01:43:24,119
Speaker 2: I think they're all comedians too much on inside.

2013
01:43:24,159 --> 01:43:27,600
Speaker 1: Sometimes they're too funny to try to be too trying

2014
01:43:27,600 --> 01:43:29,399
to be funny, too funny, I guess you can't be

2015
01:43:29,439 --> 01:43:33,800
too funny. But the free bag bit, especially since i'n

2016
01:43:33,800 --> 01:43:36,119
eleven when everybody started charging bank that separated you from

2017
01:43:36,159 --> 01:43:41,439
the group that that made you one of us. Again,

2018
01:43:41,560 --> 01:43:45,479
date they focus group this or they didn't focus group this,

2019
01:43:45,560 --> 01:43:47,039
and they're like, you know what, we'll get back lash

2020
01:43:47,079 --> 01:43:49,560
for a couple of days. Yeah, absolutely, they're right. People

2021
01:43:49,600 --> 01:43:53,520
will forget, we will forget. Well, I'm still gonna put

2022
01:43:53,520 --> 01:43:55,319
in Southwest dot com when I'm looking for flights, But

2023
01:43:55,439 --> 01:43:58,680
now it's it's different for someone that lives northeast of

2024
01:43:58,760 --> 01:44:03,399
Intercontinental unless it's a dramatic like one hundred dollars twenty

2025
01:44:03,520 --> 01:44:05,600
twenty five dollars difference. If it's fifty bucks, screw that.

2026
01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:07,439
I'm just gonna just say screw it. I'll just flash

2027
01:44:07,479 --> 01:44:10,399
mined yeah, or all fly Barrican it's costing you, like,

2028
01:44:10,479 --> 01:44:12,479
tell Bucks and gas to get down there. Yeah, no kidding.

2029
01:44:12,600 --> 01:44:16,000
Speaker 2: So just another dark day for old dark breast airlines.

2030
01:44:16,840 --> 01:44:17,319
Speaker 3: That sad.

2031
01:44:18,520 --> 01:44:21,119
Speaker 1: By the way, Cam Smith on the back fields today,

2032
01:44:21,960 --> 01:44:24,159
you know that backfield craziness out there, that's fore Channel

2033
01:44:24,199 --> 01:44:26,159
Roman and Brian mc tager through their heavy lifting.

2034
01:44:26,319 --> 01:44:29,079
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm gonna play five innings of right field today.

2035
01:44:29,119 --> 01:44:31,760
Speaker 1: Let's go. Let's get him out there, get him used

2036
01:44:31,800 --> 01:44:34,039
to it. If he's got third base, the Army's got

2037
01:44:34,119 --> 01:44:35,880
right field. Arm At least, let me tell you something.

2038
01:44:36,159 --> 01:44:38,199
If Chassi Fizz ain't sleeping, well, that would be a

2039
01:44:38,279 --> 01:44:41,960
zero surprise. Okay, I'm sorry, Chassy. He's turning thirty in April.

2040
01:44:42,199 --> 01:44:44,159
But it doesn't mean when you when you turn thirty,

2041
01:44:44,159 --> 01:44:46,119
you can't be a productive Major League baseball player. But

2042
01:44:46,199 --> 01:44:48,880
if you haven't become a big time how many players

2043
01:44:48,960 --> 01:44:54,239
become productive after thirty twenty eight? He was embarrassing, was good.

2044
01:44:54,439 --> 01:44:56,000
You'd be better than what we have out there now.

2045
01:44:56,800 --> 01:44:59,359
Twenty two home runs, I'll give a PS eight sixties.

2046
01:44:59,439 --> 01:45:02,640
Let me tell you give me twenty twenty three him.

2047
01:45:03,119 --> 01:45:04,520
Speaker 2: I'm fine. I could live with that.

2048
01:45:04,800 --> 01:45:07,079
Speaker 1: Okay, you give me altuove. What he normally does are

2049
01:45:07,159 --> 01:45:10,000
close to Myers with a great man is he is

2050
01:45:10,159 --> 01:45:14,279
smacking home runs in spring training. Jake Myers got he's

2051
01:45:14,319 --> 01:45:17,359
got country bore, strong power, Yeah, country strong as Brian mctachants,

2052
01:45:17,520 --> 01:45:22,359
and then uh and then Chassi Fizz of twenty twenty three, Okay,

2053
01:45:22,560 --> 01:45:25,840
I'll live with that. It's gonna be somewhere in between.

2054
01:45:26,079 --> 01:45:26,520
You know what it is.

2055
01:45:26,640 --> 01:45:27,680
Speaker 2: They're they're not seeing it.

2056
01:45:28,600 --> 01:45:28,840
Speaker 3: I don't.

2057
01:45:28,880 --> 01:45:31,159
Speaker 1: They're in their minor going we got a fast track

2058
01:45:31,239 --> 01:45:33,520
camps with this post quickly, So I think you're right.

2059
01:45:34,640 --> 01:45:36,399
So I think, and I'll have to do a little clarification.

2060
01:45:36,479 --> 01:45:38,119
I think if they hold him back fifteen days, they

2061
01:45:38,119 --> 01:45:40,359
get to keeping him for an additional year of arbitration

2062
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:43,399
if they now. The only reason why he wouldn't be

2063
01:45:43,439 --> 01:45:45,560
able to do that is if he finishes I believe,

2064
01:45:45,600 --> 01:45:47,199
in the top two or three in the Rookie of

2065
01:45:47,199 --> 01:45:51,319
the Year voting and then become a super two guy, which, again,

2066
01:45:51,399 --> 01:45:53,199
good for him. If that happens, it means the astros

2067
01:45:53,239 --> 01:45:56,119
are doing really really well to pay the man. Yeah,

2068
01:45:56,159 --> 01:45:57,880
I'm sorry, Oh, I'm sorry. You gotta pay these guys

2069
01:45:57,920 --> 01:46:00,720
that are producing for you MLB instead of having them

2070
01:46:00,800 --> 01:46:03,279
under control for six years and they can't hit free

2071
01:46:03,319 --> 01:46:06,800
agency do thirty. It's the greatest shister move in player.

2072
01:46:07,000 --> 01:46:10,720
And I should say employee employer relations. Could you imagine

2073
01:46:10,760 --> 01:46:14,960
working somewhere in your life now? Granted you do get

2074
01:46:16,399 --> 01:46:20,399
automatic bonuses, yes, or salary pre sessions and bonus, but

2075
01:46:20,479 --> 01:46:23,399
you can't leave for six But you can't. You can't

2076
01:46:23,600 --> 01:46:26,880
freely test the waters of your talents until you've been

2077
01:46:26,960 --> 01:46:28,439
with your company for six years.

2078
01:46:31,359 --> 01:46:32,840
Speaker 2: So what would you have it if I gave you,

2079
01:46:33,039 --> 01:46:34,359
for instance, Okay, let's just real quick.

2080
01:46:35,119 --> 01:46:38,119
Speaker 1: If I said I'm gonna sign you to a contract

2081
01:46:38,159 --> 01:46:40,520
and you can't leave for six years, but I'm going

2082
01:46:40,600 --> 01:46:44,039
to give you incremental bonuses of five percent per year. Yeah,

2083
01:46:44,239 --> 01:46:47,960
it's that's still pretty good as long as you're happy

2084
01:46:48,079 --> 01:46:50,640
with the company which you work and players who are

2085
01:46:50,680 --> 01:46:53,479
really good. I mean, what's from are making an arbitration

2086
01:46:53,600 --> 01:46:56,079
this year fifteen sixteen? I mean, when you have a chance.

2087
01:46:56,479 --> 01:46:59,560
The arbitration process. While it is there to protect the owners,

2088
01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:01,920
it still gives the players a great opportunity to make

2089
01:47:01,920 --> 01:47:04,279
a lot of money, especially if they're beneficial and doing

2090
01:47:04,439 --> 01:47:07,039
really well in the field. Eighteen million for Frobber, but

2091
01:47:07,119 --> 01:47:09,039
if he were a free agent this year, he'd get

2092
01:47:09,119 --> 01:47:09,680
much more than that.

2093
01:47:10,720 --> 01:47:10,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

2094
01:47:11,119 --> 01:47:13,640
Speaker 1: Well, I still think it protects the ownership group absolutely,

2095
01:47:13,880 --> 01:47:18,479
but I kind of get it ross If I'm an owner,

2096
01:47:18,520 --> 01:47:21,439
I like it because I need to keep my homegrown guys.

2097
01:47:21,840 --> 01:47:28,000
If if that was the case, honestly, you'd have the

2098
01:47:28,119 --> 01:47:32,279
super wealthy, super awesome players playing for all the top teams,

2099
01:47:32,279 --> 01:47:35,000
and then you'd have twenty or so teams playing probably

2100
01:47:35,119 --> 01:47:37,800
underpaying for guys at least with the arbitration numbers that

2101
01:47:37,920 --> 01:47:40,840
there is a bar that is being set right. And

2102
01:47:41,319 --> 01:47:43,319
baseball is different because I mean, you have a whole

2103
01:47:43,399 --> 01:47:45,680
farm system and you bring guys up, you send them down.

2104
01:47:45,880 --> 01:47:49,239
It's it's more complicated, it is very it's not a

2105
01:47:49,279 --> 01:47:52,199
simplistic procedure. All right, nfl rewind coming up next twelve

2106
01:47:52,239 --> 01:47:54,319
to twenty eight. It is the Matt Thomas Show, believe

2107
01:47:54,359 --> 01:47:57,520
it or not. Today all things about Laramie Tunsil. After

2108
01:47:57,600 --> 01:47:59,960
I tell you about what's happening over at Berkeley, I say,

2109
01:48:00,680 --> 01:48:04,520
Lasik will change your life. Trust me on this. You

2110
01:48:04,640 --> 01:48:07,239
want to see better, you want to live better. I

2111
01:48:07,399 --> 01:48:09,800

01:48:55,119 --> 01:48:58,760
grasp of players, He's been around the game. You love him,

2128
01:48:59,039 --> 01:49:01,319
We love them so excited for the opportunity that Matt

2129
01:49:01,399 --> 01:49:02,039
has in front of him.

2130
01:49:02,039 --> 01:49:02,319
Speaker 10: For sure.

2131
01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:04,720
Speaker 2: This is the Matt Thomas Show.

2132
01:49:17,439 --> 01:49:20,520
Speaker 1: We've got NFL rewind every Tuesday at twelve thirty here

2133
01:49:20,560 --> 01:49:22,920
on the Matt Thomas Show, Real Quick. Dj B enemy

2134
01:49:23,000 --> 01:49:28,479
of ESPN, says that the Texans again confirming they signed

2135
01:49:28,560 --> 01:49:32,439
left guard Lincoln Tomlinson. He says he's as durable as

2136
01:49:32,479 --> 01:49:34,960
they come. He played seven seasons in the row without

2137
01:49:35,039 --> 01:49:38,439
missing a game. He'll be competing for a starting role.

2138
01:49:39,640 --> 01:49:43,119
He allowed the sixth highest pressure rate among left guards.

2139
01:49:43,720 --> 01:49:47,920
Oh is that bad? With at least three hundred blocking

2140
01:49:48,000 --> 01:49:51,800
snaps and eleven sacks, the most allowed according to next

2141
01:49:51,920 --> 01:49:52,560
Gen Stats.

2142
01:49:53,520 --> 01:49:57,279
Speaker 2: So you're saying there's a chance. Apparently, still an upgrade.

2143
01:49:59,119 --> 01:50:03,159
Speaker 1: According to our friend at Profable, sounds like a just

2144
01:50:03,319 --> 01:50:07,439
a swing backup. Yeah, it's four million dollars. I mean,

2145
01:50:08,039 --> 01:50:11,039
just a guy's four million. It's just mind numbing money.

2146
01:50:11,199 --> 01:50:16,880
It's just four million. It's fine, totally fine, all right, Matt,

2147
01:50:17,119 --> 01:50:20,680
Let's go on the NFL rewind a lot of quarterback

2148
01:50:20,920 --> 01:50:26,079
moving and shaking. Let's start with Sam Donald to the

2149
01:50:26,279 --> 01:50:32,159
Seattle Seahawks three year, one hundred point five million dollars deal.

2150
01:50:33,399 --> 01:50:37,600
Gino Smith went to the Las Vegas Raiders for a

2151
01:50:37,680 --> 01:50:38,800
third round draft pick.

2152
01:50:39,680 --> 01:50:44,119
Speaker 2: So he's with the Raiders. Sam Donald with.

2153
01:50:45,600 --> 01:50:52,520
Speaker 1: The Seahawks, wasn't Gino Smith?

2154
01:50:52,560 --> 01:50:52,720
Speaker 11: Good?

2155
01:50:52,800 --> 01:50:52,960
Speaker 3: There?

2156
01:50:54,359 --> 01:50:54,520
Speaker 10: Good?

2157
01:50:54,640 --> 01:50:55,000
Speaker 3: Not great.

2158
01:50:55,439 --> 01:50:57,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say the same thing for Sam Darnald. If

2159
01:50:57,560 --> 01:51:01,720
you're a Seahawks fan, are you happy about this? Yeah?

2160
01:51:01,760 --> 01:51:04,279
Speaker 2: You're training just one guy, another bridge for an underbridge.

2161
01:51:04,359 --> 01:51:06,000
Speaker 1: I mean, Sam Donald most of the time last year

2162
01:51:06,079 --> 01:51:09,279
was like, all right, Justin Jefferson down there somewhere. He

2163
01:51:09,479 --> 01:51:11,960
just bombed to Justson Jefferson and Jordan Addison was good.

2164
01:51:12,560 --> 01:51:13,359
Second half of the season.

2165
01:51:13,479 --> 01:51:13,680
Speaker 3: TJ.

2166
01:51:13,760 --> 01:51:17,680
Speaker 1: Hawkinson came on, let's do a gut feeling. Good season,

2167
01:51:17,840 --> 01:51:21,079
great season. Disappointing season for Sam Donald as a member

2168
01:51:21,239 --> 01:51:23,359
of the Seattle Seahawks. I'll say good not great. I

2169
01:51:23,399 --> 01:51:24,840
just think that's what he is now. He threw thirty

2170
01:51:24,840 --> 01:51:27,119
five touchdowns this past year. It was I mean, by

2171
01:51:27,239 --> 01:51:30,279
all accounts, a great season, but regression from Minnesota. I

2172
01:51:30,319 --> 01:51:34,239
would think with that lack of targets. Right, with DK

2173
01:51:34,359 --> 01:51:36,800
Metcalf gone, Lockett wants to be gone. Right, is locking

2174
01:51:36,800 --> 01:51:39,920
already gone or is he Locket's gone? Yeah, DK Metcalf's gone.

2175
01:51:41,159 --> 01:51:43,680
Good luck Seattle Fan. I mean Jackson Smith and Jig

2176
01:51:43,800 --> 01:51:45,920
but was really good second half of the season. Something

2177
01:51:45,960 --> 01:51:47,560
about this year. He's not my radar man for the

2178
01:51:47,600 --> 01:51:51,079
fantasy season next year. So Seattle Fan has the Mariners

2179
01:51:51,560 --> 01:51:54,439
new manager that's gonna be spend money though, and they'll

2180
01:51:54,439 --> 01:51:57,039
spend money. Turner literally was begging them to spend money

2181
01:51:57,039 --> 01:51:59,399
because they have a great one through five rotation and

2182
01:51:59,479 --> 01:52:02,159
they didn't. You have University of Washington who's just mid

2183
01:52:02,239 --> 01:52:05,079
in the Big ten, and then you got Sam Darnold.

2184
01:52:06,840 --> 01:52:10,399
Have fun, go cracking? How the kracking doing Connor contellis crack?

2185
01:52:10,520 --> 01:52:14,439
What's how the cracking doing in the NHL Stanley Cups? Uh?

2186
01:52:15,000 --> 01:52:17,760
Not super good. They're towards the bottom. They were on

2187
01:52:17,840 --> 01:52:21,600
TV last week. Dang, and then that ends our crackin

2188
01:52:21,680 --> 01:52:25,399
Talk seven ninety segment. Yep, continue, Okay, so mentioned Geno Smith,

2189
01:52:25,520 --> 01:52:28,840
the Raiders, Daniel Jones. If you had not heard finalizing

2190
01:52:28,920 --> 01:52:32,800
a one year deal with the Indianapolis Colts. How's Colt

2191
01:52:32,880 --> 01:52:35,760
fan feeling right now? Hey, guys, you want Anthony Richardson

2192
01:52:35,880 --> 01:52:39,079
or Daniel Jones. Would it be too soon to put

2193
01:52:39,079 --> 01:52:41,880
another AFC South banner up at Energy? I don't think

2194
01:52:41,920 --> 01:52:44,079
it is. Let me ask you this, how about putting

2195
01:52:44,119 --> 01:52:50,079
the two thousand and twenty five AFC South banner in

2196
01:52:50,159 --> 01:52:52,159
a plot of land out in the woodlands so we

2197
01:52:52,199 --> 01:52:54,079
could put it for in the new Texas Stadium is

2198
01:52:54,119 --> 01:52:58,920
going to be placed. They already came out and said

2199
01:52:58,960 --> 01:53:04,399
they're looking to refurbish. Okay, well you want to got feeling? No,

2200
01:53:04,479 --> 01:53:07,119
I would lean towards refurbished. But I think if you

2201
01:53:07,239 --> 01:53:10,119
think they're not thinking about other real estate area, you'd

2202
01:53:10,159 --> 01:53:15,119
be crazy. Okay, because I'm telling you, if you refurbish

2203
01:53:15,199 --> 01:53:16,680
and you think that area of town is gonna be

2204
01:53:16,720 --> 01:53:19,600
a hustle and bustling spot for non game days, you

2205
01:53:19,800 --> 01:53:22,520
high Let me read you through the list of top

2206
01:53:22,920 --> 01:53:26,720
passers for the Colts the last several years. Last year,

2207
01:53:27,199 --> 01:53:31,000
Anthony Richardson. Nope, before that, Gardner Minshew, no, thank you,

2208
01:53:31,279 --> 01:53:38,560
Matt Ryan, Carson Wentz, no, Philip Rivers, Jacobe Brissette Andrew. Look,

2209
01:53:39,640 --> 01:53:43,680
that is seven straight years with seven different passing leaders

2210
01:53:43,720 --> 01:53:49,560
in Indianapolis and Peyton Manning is like you, I need

2211
01:53:49,640 --> 01:53:52,920
to shrine. Should be a statue with him outside of

2212
01:53:53,479 --> 01:53:54,680
Lucas Al State? Is there not?

2213
01:53:55,279 --> 01:53:55,359
Speaker 3: There?

2214
01:53:55,399 --> 01:53:55,800
Speaker 1: Should be?

2215
01:53:56,079 --> 01:53:56,279
Speaker 3: Yeah?

2216
01:53:57,039 --> 01:54:01,039
Speaker 1: Keeping with quarterback news, Josh Field's two years. Excuse me,

2217
01:54:01,359 --> 01:54:05,079
Justin Fields, Josh Fields is the reliever. Yeah, that was

2218
01:54:05,159 --> 01:54:09,600
trade of dollars. Yeah, Justin Fields two year, forty million dollars.

2219
01:54:09,600 --> 01:54:11,520
Do with the Jets. How they're Jets feeling about that?

2220
01:54:11,640 --> 01:54:14,000
Speaker 2: Oh, twenty million dollars.

2221
01:54:13,760 --> 01:54:16,880
Speaker 1: For Justin Field back to Daniel Jones and Indianapolis fourteen

2222
01:54:17,000 --> 01:54:18,399
million dollars to be a backup.

2223
01:54:19,800 --> 01:54:20,920
Speaker 2: That is wasted money.

2224
01:54:20,960 --> 01:54:23,119
Speaker 1: That's money. You'll never recoup that money.

2225
01:54:23,560 --> 01:54:25,680
Speaker 2: You'll never get great value back in returnable.

2226
01:54:26,479 --> 01:54:28,960
Speaker 1: All right, Keeping it moving here on the NFL, rewind

2227
01:54:29,840 --> 01:54:32,479
How about the Rams saying, Eh, Cooper cup are too old,

2228
01:54:32,560 --> 01:54:36,680
we don't pay you all this money. Davante Adams two

2229
01:54:36,920 --> 01:54:42,399
year deal with the Los Angeles Rams, and it is

2230
01:54:42,560 --> 01:54:49,239
going to be twenty million dollars per year. So it's

2231
01:54:49,239 --> 01:54:51,279
a cup definitely on in Los Angeles now, or there's

2232
01:54:51,279 --> 01:54:53,600
a chance you put those two guys together forty four

2233
01:54:53,680 --> 01:54:55,880
million dollars because it so twenty two million dollars per

2234
01:54:56,000 --> 01:54:58,079
year for Davante Adams at thirty.

2235
01:54:57,880 --> 01:54:59,800
Speaker 2: Two years old. You want to play in the West coast.

2236
01:55:02,079 --> 01:55:05,239
Speaker 1: Uh, there have been people linking him to Houston. As

2237
01:55:05,279 --> 01:55:07,680
I said before, he's here. He wanted to play in

2238
01:55:07,760 --> 01:55:09,279
Los Angele. He wanted to He want to go on

2239
01:55:09,319 --> 01:55:10,279
the West coast and return.

2240
01:55:10,479 --> 01:55:11,199
Speaker 2: So there it is.

2241
01:55:12,880 --> 01:55:15,640
Speaker 1: Uh, yeah, Rams to release cup if no trade is made.

2242
01:55:15,720 --> 01:55:19,640
That is the latest on our good friend Cooper Cup. Now,

2243
01:55:19,680 --> 01:55:21,399
we kind of mentioned this in the last passing days,

2244
01:55:21,439 --> 01:55:23,600
but since it's the nfre win, we'll bring it back up. Man,

2245
01:55:24,399 --> 01:55:27,920
Miles Garrett, I'll tell you why I did bring this up.

2246
01:55:28,079 --> 01:55:30,079
I already had a story locked and loaded from like

2247
01:55:30,159 --> 01:55:32,000
last week. I was like, Okay, Miles Garrett says he's

2248
01:55:32,039 --> 01:55:34,319
ready to miss games. He's gonna hold out right, they're

2249
01:55:34,359 --> 01:55:37,760
at a at a standstill. When not meeting with the owner,

2250
01:55:37,920 --> 01:55:44,319
Joner said, no, Jimmy has them yep. Well, four years,

2251
01:55:44,640 --> 01:55:48,239
one hundred and twenty two point eight million dollars guarantee,

2252
01:55:48,359 --> 01:55:51,640
the most ever for a non quarterback in league history.

2253
01:55:51,680 --> 01:55:54,439
Miles Garrett, I want to play for a contender. Didn't

2254
01:55:54,439 --> 01:55:57,840
his statement say, I'm all about championships. I didn't come

2255
01:55:57,840 --> 01:56:00,000
here to make all pro teams. I came to win championship.

2256
01:56:00,479 --> 01:56:04,000
And then he said how much excuse me? Quiet? Okay,

2257
01:56:04,319 --> 01:56:10,800
Cleveland Browns. Let's go, folks, and remember four athletes zero

2258
01:56:10,800 --> 01:56:13,279
point nine percent of the time, it's about the cash.

2259
01:56:14,399 --> 01:56:14,920
Speaker 2: Literally.

2260
01:56:15,119 --> 01:56:19,560
Speaker 1: His statement that he made his trade request with talked

2261
01:56:19,560 --> 01:56:23,199
about wanting to win Super Bowls. Well, there's a chance,

2262
01:56:23,920 --> 01:56:26,079
although the Brown's never been to one, but there's a chance.

2263
01:56:28,279 --> 01:56:32,720
Who's the Browns starting quarterback next year? Deshaun Watson.

2264
01:56:34,039 --> 01:56:34,399
Speaker 2: You're hurt?

2265
01:56:35,640 --> 01:56:35,720
Speaker 13: Oh?

2266
01:56:35,840 --> 01:56:37,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've hit his achilles?

2267
01:56:37,359 --> 01:56:40,520
Speaker 2: Uh is the guy with the hyphens too?

2268
01:56:40,680 --> 01:56:43,159
Speaker 1: Yeah? Dorian Thompson Robinson, No, I can't. They can't go

2269
01:56:43,239 --> 01:56:45,439
in him with the starting quarterback. You look up something,

2270
01:56:45,479 --> 01:56:47,800
I'll look it up. I'm gonna look at it right now.

2271
01:56:49,760 --> 01:56:52,159
Trained it traded for Kenny Pickett. Oh that's right. Oh,

2272
01:56:53,680 --> 01:57:00,319
they got Bailey's Abbey and Jameis Winston too. Picket and

2273
01:57:00,439 --> 01:57:05,960
Dorian Thompson Robinson the Browns and Eagles. Eagles continue to

2274
01:57:06,000 --> 01:57:09,199
shed payroll. We mentioned that they traded CJ. Gardner Johnson

2275
01:57:09,239 --> 01:57:12,199
to the Houston Texans. Now they plan to release Darius

2276
01:57:12,479 --> 01:57:18,039
Slay on Wednesday. This always happens, Matt. Team wins the

2277
01:57:18,079 --> 01:57:22,239
Super Bowl, got to get out of cap Hell and well,

2278
01:57:23,479 --> 01:57:27,119
Darius slayh CJ. Gardner Johnson gone from the Philadelphia Eagles.

2279
01:57:29,760 --> 01:57:33,479
Elsewhere in the NFL, the Panthers have cut Miles Sanders

2280
01:57:34,600 --> 01:57:36,520
and we did kind of briefly mention this, Matt, but

2281
01:57:36,600 --> 01:57:41,760
it was a two year deal with Mario Edwards here

2282
01:57:41,920 --> 01:57:47,520
in Houston, Texas nine point five million dollars. Mario Edwards

2283
01:57:47,520 --> 01:57:51,319
staying here. Sheldon Rankins re signed one year, seven million.

2284
01:57:51,359 --> 01:57:54,800
I want them to get a defensive tackle. We'll see

2285
01:57:54,840 --> 01:57:56,079
if it apps. They're just, you know what they're doing.

2286
01:57:56,119 --> 01:57:59,800
They're just these little short term little let's rebuild this

2287
01:58:00,079 --> 01:58:02,720
way and let's you know, let's let's build and let's

2288
01:58:02,800 --> 01:58:04,720
let's get as many players in as possible for at

2289
01:58:04,800 --> 01:58:06,239
least amount of money and help a couple of these

2290
01:58:06,279 --> 01:58:09,119
guys stick. You can find defensive tackles late in the draft.

2291
01:58:09,159 --> 01:58:10,680
I still want the Texans to go get somebody like

2292
01:58:10,760 --> 01:58:12,680
the Textans have gone like three hours without signing a

2293
01:58:12,680 --> 01:58:15,039
wide receiver. There's gotta be something that's gonna nervous. Switch

2294
01:58:15,279 --> 01:58:20,199
didn't even mentioned those, was it Braxton Barrios and Kansas

2295
01:58:20,239 --> 01:58:24,439
City that never played Justin Watson? Yeah, I mean god,

2296
01:58:25,000 --> 01:58:27,079
I'm not gonna invest myself in these guys until I

2297
01:58:27,079 --> 01:58:28,920
see him in the training camp and playing in the

2298
01:58:28,960 --> 01:58:33,279
preseason and making a roster But they're replacing Hutchinson, Matchie

2299
01:58:33,800 --> 01:58:38,520
who else? Yeah, guys, guys Derek Barnett and Jake Hanson

2300
01:58:38,560 --> 01:58:41,920
also resigned. We hadn't mentioned that, Matt, your thoughts, I

2301
01:58:42,039 --> 01:58:43,960
might the number one thing they're gonna be thinking about

2302
01:58:44,159 --> 01:58:47,039
is the Larmie Tunseil trade was obviously number one, and

2303
01:58:47,119 --> 01:58:49,920
number two is making sure Derek Stanely has a new.

2304
01:58:49,840 --> 01:58:51,119
Speaker 2: Contract before the next year starts.

2305
01:58:51,199 --> 01:58:53,640
Speaker 1: He's going to well, I don't know if the year starts,

2306
01:58:53,720 --> 01:58:57,439
we'll see, but he's got these moves. Are are shaving

2307
01:58:57,479 --> 01:59:05,000
payroll to make these things happen. And that's your NFL reway.

2308
01:59:05,279 --> 01:59:15,239
Nicely done, feels very active, lots going on. Yeah, and

2309
01:59:15,319 --> 01:59:17,720
it feels like the Laramie Tensil stuff has subsided just

2310
01:59:17,760 --> 01:59:18,119
a little bit.

2311
01:59:18,119 --> 01:59:20,000
Speaker 2: Would that be fair to say that.

2312
01:59:20,800 --> 01:59:23,760
Speaker 1: Those that are angrier angry about it have kind of like,

2313
01:59:23,920 --> 01:59:26,880
I kind of get it now those that have not

2314
01:59:27,000 --> 01:59:28,920
been overly that we're pleased about it and felt like,

2315
01:59:29,000 --> 01:59:32,880
you know what, feel satisfying. And the thing that we

2316
01:59:33,000 --> 01:59:34,600
brought up at the beginning of the show today worth

2317
01:59:34,720 --> 01:59:39,279
repeating again is Nick Cassio and Dimiico Ryans both have

2318
01:59:39,439 --> 01:59:43,520
said unless ross they're lying to us that they are

2319
01:59:43,560 --> 01:59:47,239
working collectively very well together. You don't make a move

2320
01:59:47,880 --> 01:59:51,880
that big unless both the general manager and the head

2321
01:59:51,960 --> 01:59:56,159
coach sign off on it. And when asked if cal

2322
01:59:56,279 --> 01:59:58,680
was going to sign off on it, he was busy

2323
01:59:58,720 --> 02:00:00,680
playing Donkey Kong and was on a available to sign

2324
02:00:00,760 --> 02:00:03,199
off on it. Yeah, I heard you just got to

2325
02:00:03,319 --> 02:00:05,359
level seventy eight, I mean a level so other a

2326
02:00:05,439 --> 02:00:08,039
Donkey Kong. I don't know. I think it the game

2327
02:00:08,119 --> 02:00:11,760
eventually like freezes. I don't think there's a limit. I

2328
02:00:11,880 --> 02:00:12,920
think the game like bricks out.

2329
02:00:12,920 --> 02:00:14,119
Speaker 2: So he's staring at the game right now.

2330
02:00:14,359 --> 02:00:16,800
Speaker 1: Why documentary on the guy playing What was that documentary

2331
02:00:16,840 --> 02:00:18,800
about the guy who was like the Donkey Kong champion?

2332
02:00:19,560 --> 02:00:22,439
It was last time and played Donkey kong uh in

2333
02:00:22,520 --> 02:00:24,520
nineteen eighty one. I was going to say, in the

2334
02:00:24,600 --> 02:00:28,039
late eighties for me, and that has the NFL we won.

2335
02:00:28,239 --> 02:00:30,640
Thank you very much. Ross all right, but lab or

2336
02:00:30,640 --> 02:00:32,479

2337

have you softened your stand saying I get it. Laramie

2344
02:00:57,720 --> 02:01:02,119
Tenseil's now Washington commander. Are you you still upset? And

2345
02:01:02,199 --> 02:01:04,479

2346
02:01:04,520 --> 02:01:05,960
And if you're happy, you let us know. But I

2347
02:01:06,039 --> 02:01:06,359
want to know.

2348
02:01:06,560 --> 02:01:08,159
Speaker 2: I want to find some people right.

2349
02:01:08,119 --> 02:01:11,800

on Sports Talk seven ninety.

2371
02:02:39,520 --> 02:02:43,359
Speaker 1: All right, twelve fifty. Obviously there's no more outrage Lemmon

2372
02:02:43,479 --> 02:02:48,079
Tensil people loving this. Be fair to say us overwhelmingly

2373
02:02:48,680 --> 02:02:52,039
positive support for them, But again we're not in the room.

2374
02:02:53,159 --> 02:02:54,000
Speaker 2: We're also not CJ.

2375
02:02:54,119 --> 02:02:57,960
Speaker 1: Strouders probably thinking about what potential could be is the

2376
02:02:58,039 --> 02:03:00,359
five guys in front of him next year takes if

2377
02:03:00,359 --> 02:03:02,560
you bring in an extra steveny, bring an extra tight

2378
02:03:02,640 --> 02:03:06,000
end and to help the cause Dalton Schultz probably what

2379
02:03:06,079 --> 02:03:09,239
a beyond below average blocking tight end.

2380
02:03:09,359 --> 02:03:09,840
Speaker 2: Isn't that great?

2381
02:03:12,479 --> 02:03:18,640
Speaker 1: Keep a fullback in do something Okay, creative? Nick Cayley,

2382
02:03:18,960 --> 02:03:21,479
good luck thoughts some praise to you as your first

2383
02:03:21,520 --> 02:03:23,760
time as an offensive coordinator and the first time is

2384
02:03:23,800 --> 02:03:28,640
a play caller. It's interesting how they went with youth

2385
02:03:29,600 --> 02:03:32,399
in terms of experience at the offensive coordinator spot. All right,

2386
02:03:32,880 --> 02:03:34,560
uh more on that coming up in the final hour

2387
02:03:34,560 --> 02:03:36,039
of the show. Plus Believe it or not, today all

2388
02:03:36,039 --> 02:03:40,680
things about laroming tonsl at one fifty ross. The folks

2389
02:03:40,720 --> 02:03:43,079
in Major League Baseball like to create these special hats,

2390
02:03:44,239 --> 02:03:46,279
and the Texas Rangers had a special hat they had

2391
02:03:46,319 --> 02:03:49,720
put online in their online story yesterday and had to

2392
02:03:49,760 --> 02:03:52,079
get pulled off the shelves. They pulled it off the shelves.

2393
02:03:52,079 --> 02:03:53,399
I was wondering if they were going to do that.

2394
02:03:53,760 --> 02:03:57,359
All right, So they did this for every team. Right,

2395
02:03:57,920 --> 02:04:02,600
they put the logo in the middle of the team name,

2396
02:04:02,920 --> 02:04:07,319
team name or place or town. Right t e x

2397
02:04:07,399 --> 02:04:10,479
A S is Texas Correct? If you had put that

2398
02:04:10,560 --> 02:04:13,000
on the hat, nothing, no big no big issues.

2399
02:04:13,319 --> 02:04:13,680
Speaker 21: Uh huh.

2400
02:04:14,079 --> 02:04:17,399
Speaker 1: Instead, what the Rangers did was they went T E

2401
02:04:18,960 --> 02:04:21,880
the logo for the Rangers, which is a big T yes,

2402
02:04:22,279 --> 02:04:26,960
A big T so guy T E big t A

2403
02:04:27,239 --> 02:04:28,600
S T E t A S.

2404
02:04:29,279 --> 02:04:29,920
Speaker 3: And that is.

2405
02:04:32,880 --> 02:04:39,319
Speaker 1: T E t A S T E t A S yeses. Mhmm.

2406
02:04:41,479 --> 02:04:48,239
Interesting look until somebody figured out what it meant. I mean,

2407
02:04:48,399 --> 02:04:54,439
there's wasn't There wasn't one because the Texas Rangers. Correct,

2408
02:04:54,479 --> 02:04:58,760
we're in Texas marketing department. There wasn't one Hispanic person

2409
02:04:58,840 --> 02:05:02,279
in there. Or this was done by fanatics and they

2410
02:05:02,319 --> 02:05:04,600
just did it to everybody or whoever was it Finanal

2411
02:05:04,920 --> 02:05:05,359
or new Era.

2412
02:05:05,439 --> 02:05:07,520
Speaker 2: I guest would you not have sent it to the

2413
02:05:07,560 --> 02:05:08,680
team to say, what do you think?

2414
02:05:09,000 --> 02:05:13,520
Speaker 1: Yeah? How many hurdles did this clear before it was

2415
02:05:13,600 --> 02:05:16,680
put out? So we don't know. It's a Spanish term

2416
02:05:16,760 --> 02:05:28,800
for chee cheese, which is a Spanish term for breasts. Yeah,

2417
02:05:30,239 --> 02:05:33,159
it's more, but that what the Ranger. It's kind of vulgar.

2418
02:05:33,520 --> 02:05:40,239
It's vulgar, more vulgar, so breast is non vulgar. Yes,

2419
02:05:42,119 --> 02:05:44,319
it would be equivalent to one of the seven words

2420
02:05:44,359 --> 02:05:47,000
you can't say on TV, which you can't say now?

2421
02:05:48,239 --> 02:05:49,760
Speaker 2: Is it less vulgar than boobs?

2422
02:05:51,199 --> 02:05:58,079
Speaker 1: No more vulgar? How did chi cheese back in the

2423
02:05:58,159 --> 02:06:00,399
day get away with it? I don't know what they

2424
02:06:00,439 --> 02:06:02,319
were doing. I guess because of Chi Chi Rodriguez.

2425
02:06:04,159 --> 02:06:07,239
Speaker 2: But chee Cheese are making They're rebranding.

2426
02:06:08,319 --> 02:06:09,319
Speaker 1: Chee Cheese are coming back.

2427
02:06:09,800 --> 02:06:10,000
Speaker 2: YEP.

2428
02:06:10,159 --> 02:06:13,039
Speaker 1: I think chee cheese never left. The chimney chong is

2429
02:06:13,039 --> 02:06:17,000
a chee cheese was good, So I spent my youth.

2430
02:06:17,039 --> 02:06:18,800
That's why I got so fat. You spent your youth

2431
02:06:18,840 --> 02:06:20,680
at chee Cheese. Oh, my dad was a manager there,

2432
02:06:20,800 --> 02:06:23,000
so I would sometimes spend Sundays with him and he'd

2433
02:06:23,039 --> 02:06:24,800
give me twenty five hours with a quarters to play

2434
02:06:24,840 --> 02:06:26,680
video games and the end, Oh, you could eat the

2435
02:06:27,720 --> 02:06:28,239
chimmy chong.

2436
02:06:28,359 --> 02:06:30,000
Speaker 2: You and your dad bonded over chee cheese.

2437
02:06:30,880 --> 02:06:37,800
Speaker 1: We did. Actually, yes, you never bust che cheese. Connie,

2438
02:06:37,880 --> 02:06:39,880
your new job can't have this so much fun to it.

2439
02:06:40,319 --> 02:06:42,319
You're you're gonna be bored. You're looking to play some

2440
02:06:42,399 --> 02:06:44,760
sound or somebody's gonna say something inappropriate the office. You're like,

2441
02:06:44,760 --> 02:06:50,640
I can't use it for Friday. I mean, all these

2442
02:06:50,720 --> 02:06:56,039
are terrible I haven't seen is the worst. The Astros

2443
02:06:56,079 --> 02:06:59,600
one's not good. Is a giant h with the star

2444
02:06:59,720 --> 02:07:08,479
logo over Astros looks like ashos. These are stupid. It's

2445
02:07:08,520 --> 02:07:11,680
called the New Era Overlap fifty nine to fifty collection

2446
02:07:14,239 --> 02:07:16,880
and no idea how they're selling at this point. These

2447
02:07:16,960 --> 02:07:20,600
all look terrible. Let me see the Dodgers. One's actually okay.

2448
02:07:22,119 --> 02:07:24,840
Maybe the Blue Jays is too. Most of these are terrible.

2449
02:07:26,239 --> 02:07:28,199
You know what we're running in two ross. We're running

2450
02:07:28,319 --> 02:07:32,640
out of ideas. You have colors, you have a logo,

2451
02:07:32,840 --> 02:07:35,239
you have the city name. You're just trying to reinvent

2452
02:07:35,279 --> 02:07:38,520
the wheel unless you just frankly just change everything about it.

2453
02:07:38,640 --> 02:07:40,920
Everything is getting cut to the bone. You're running out

2454
02:07:40,920 --> 02:07:43,760
of ideas. Look, this is like the Southwest thing. Okay, look, hey,

2455
02:07:43,960 --> 02:07:47,439
you go to the boardroom. You're like, hey, hey, shareholders

2456
02:07:47,479 --> 02:07:49,359
need some more money. Shareholders need to see our stuff

2457
02:07:49,359 --> 02:07:50,720
going up. We need earnings up. All right, what are

2458
02:07:50,720 --> 02:07:52,760
we gonna do? All right, We're going to uh, We're

2459
02:07:52,760 --> 02:07:55,319
gonna have cheaper fabrics. We're gonna have smaller patches. This

2460
02:07:55,399 --> 02:07:57,479
is what fanatics and New Era and whatever has been.

2461
02:07:57,960 --> 02:08:00,239
We're gonna We're gonna Okay, well, you know what it

2462
02:08:00,279 --> 02:08:01,640
costs US as much to do it in China, it's

2463
02:08:01,680 --> 02:08:03,800
cheaper doing in Malaysa. Let's do it in Malaysia. Okay,

2464
02:08:04,119 --> 02:08:05,560
we got to come up with new ideas. We're gonna

2465
02:08:05,560 --> 02:08:07,199
do this color, that color, this color, that color. It's

2466
02:08:07,239 --> 02:08:09,600
gonna we're gonna oversaturate the market. At some point, you

2467
02:08:09,680 --> 02:08:12,159
can only cut to the bone so much to where

2468
02:08:12,159 --> 02:08:16,399
there's nothing left to cut, so they they have to

2469
02:08:16,479 --> 02:08:19,720
keep it reinventing the wheel. And that's the reason why

2470
02:08:19,920 --> 02:08:24,119
again I think the NFL explosion overseas is going to happen.

2471
02:08:24,640 --> 02:08:27,199
They have to go somewhere. Running out of things to do.

2472
02:08:27,359 --> 02:08:30,279
In the United States, they keep adding games. They are

2473
02:08:30,319 --> 02:08:32,520
out of they're out of ideas. They are new ideas.

2474
02:08:32,640 --> 02:08:35,079
Let's keep adding more games. I think eventually we're gonna

2475
02:08:35,079 --> 02:08:38,000
see Jersey sponsorships in the NFL. Mm hmm. By the way,

2476
02:08:38,039 --> 02:08:39,760
that is a revenue stream. That is not as a

2477
02:08:39,840 --> 02:08:42,039
revenue stream. But the NBA has already learned they're not

2478
02:08:42,119 --> 02:08:43,640
making as much as they thought they were going to.

2479
02:08:43,760 --> 02:08:46,640
The NBA thought they were gonna be able to make

2480
02:08:46,800 --> 02:08:49,239
millions and millions and millions of dollars we have logos

2481
02:08:49,319 --> 02:08:52,119
being changed on Jersey patches left and right, and that

2482
02:08:52,199 --> 02:08:55,079
gludes the Rockets for that matter. Rockets are murn new

2483
02:08:55,119 --> 02:08:57,600
in this year with Morrial Herman. But I mean we've

2484
02:08:57,680 --> 02:09:03,560
seen four or five rocket It was credit Karma Reddit Rama, Yeah,

2485
02:09:03,800 --> 02:09:06,600
sorry Rama. The Celtics were re e for a while.

2486
02:09:07,039 --> 02:09:09,000
Now there's something else. There's some teams. I don't even

2487
02:09:09,039 --> 02:09:11,319
have a logo on it. Yeah, I mean I don't.

2488
02:09:11,319 --> 02:09:13,960
I don't think the logo they made it. They tried

2489
02:09:14,000 --> 02:09:16,359
to compromise. If you want to go full bore, just

2490
02:09:16,439 --> 02:09:19,359
do it soccer style, doesn't does THEMWNBA do? WNBA does

2491
02:09:19,439 --> 02:09:24,319
it full soccer soccer style, and that's that's it. You're like,

2492
02:09:24,359 --> 02:09:25,880
you'll have the city and their team name in the

2493
02:09:26,039 --> 02:09:28,520
upper left corners, some tiny pat You're like, what is that?

2494
02:09:28,920 --> 02:09:31,159
You can't even see? You can't even when you're watching

2495
02:09:31,199 --> 02:09:33,239
in WNBA game. That's what we were doing a lot

2496
02:09:33,279 --> 02:09:34,680
of that. But if you are, you don't know which

2497
02:09:34,720 --> 02:09:37,800
team is which because the logo of the companies are

2498
02:09:37,880 --> 02:09:39,760
way bigger than the city name and the team name.

2499
02:09:39,880 --> 02:09:40,159
Speaker 3: This is what.

2500
02:09:40,520 --> 02:09:43,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna happen. I think we're gonna see did

2501
02:09:43,560 --> 02:09:48,039
we talk about on field sponsorships for the NFL every

2502
02:09:48,039 --> 02:09:49,720
twenty or thirty yards. I mean, have you seen a

2503
02:09:49,760 --> 02:09:52,520
Rockets game. You can hardly see the floor. Now some

2504
02:09:52,640 --> 02:09:55,000
of that is super imposed, Yeah, a lot of that. Actually, Yeah,

2505
02:09:55,000 --> 02:10:00,319
they're gonna do the NFL too. Yeah, it's coming. You're

2506
02:10:00,439 --> 02:10:04,399
you're you're shelling out hundreds of millions of dollars for

2507
02:10:04,520 --> 02:10:07,960
these games, and NFL is asking for more and more

2508
02:10:08,000 --> 02:10:14,000
and more and more. Let's go international, more marketing, more filled,

2509
02:10:14,479 --> 02:10:19,920
make stuff to clutter it up. The only thing I'm

2510
02:10:19,920 --> 02:10:22,600
asking ross, and this is in any sport, that you

2511
02:10:22,840 --> 02:10:27,239
do not make a marketing arm decision that would affect

2512
02:10:27,319 --> 02:10:31,399
the game. Like if you shoot from the I don't

2513
02:10:31,439 --> 02:10:34,880
know the rate, re special star on the court, you

2514
02:10:34,960 --> 02:10:37,680
get a bonus. You have that on No, not a bonus. No,

2515
02:10:37,800 --> 02:10:39,399
I don't think it would affect the game. But you

2516
02:10:39,439 --> 02:10:41,640
already have that on radio broadcasts. We're into the whatever

2517
02:10:41,760 --> 02:10:45,479
red zone. Yeah, but then, but that's just a sponsor technim.

2518
02:10:45,520 --> 02:10:47,560
I'm saying that you if you the day you affect

2519
02:10:47,600 --> 02:10:49,319
the game because of a sponsor edition.

2520
02:10:49,359 --> 02:10:51,239
Speaker 2: Is the day I'm leaving sports. That's not gonna happen.

2521
02:10:51,560 --> 02:10:52,279
You better hope not.

2522
02:10:52,760 --> 02:10:53,479
Speaker 1: This is not rocket.

2523
02:10:55,119 --> 02:10:56,479
Speaker 2: We love our great advertisers.

2524
02:10:56,720 --> 02:10:58,239
Speaker 1: No, I'm not just saying I just don't want a

2525
02:10:58,920 --> 02:11:01,840
four point line with letters all over it, saying if

2526
02:11:01,840 --> 02:11:04,399
you hit the Raryreen four point line, you get a

2527
02:11:04,439 --> 02:11:06,439
free you know, a buzzer or something like that. The

2528
02:11:06,479 --> 02:11:08,920
Synergenics Health dot Com four point line.

2529
02:11:09,039 --> 02:11:09,680
Speaker 2: Oh is that right?

Cy Feldman exactly else the Astros put out there in

2563
02:13:02,000 --> 02:13:05,399
the twenty fourteenth in rotation times are better. Oh saw

02:13:05,399 --> 02:13:10,159
your Keatie signed with the Chicago Cubs. Oh, good for him. Yeah,

2565
02:13:10,720 --> 02:13:13,000
I think it's the Cubs. I can check on that. Uh,

2566
02:13:13,439 --> 02:13:16,039
I want to say it with the Cubs. One year

2567
02:13:16,079 --> 02:13:20,159
deal with a chance to make some extra money with incentives.

2568
02:13:20,199 --> 02:13:22,039
So let me tell you, let me double check that.

2569
02:13:22,720 --> 02:13:23,119

2576
02:13:36,399 --> 02:13:36,800
Speaker 2: There's a time.

2577
02:13:36,800 --> 02:13:38,560
Speaker 1: I know it was somebody in Midwest, close enough. One

2578
02:13:38,640 --> 02:13:40,680
year contract for the twenty twenty five season with a

2579
02:13:40,720 --> 02:13:42,760
club option for twenty twenty six.

2580
02:13:42,840 --> 02:13:45,279
Speaker 2: He obviously knows uh A J. Hinch a little bit.

2581
02:13:45,359 --> 02:13:48,680
Speaker 1: So is he even going to be available?

2582
02:13:49,439 --> 02:13:49,760
Speaker 10: Mmm?

2583
02:13:51,399 --> 02:13:54,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's a good question. I don't think

2584
02:13:54,920 --> 02:13:58,680
he's ready for the start of the season, that's for sure. Well,

2585
02:13:58,720 --> 02:14:01,640
wishing him. Has not pitched in twenty twenty three, it's

2586
02:14:01,680 --> 02:14:05,439
twenty nine years old. Wonderful, be fine, I'm wishing him

2587
02:14:05,439 --> 02:14:06,760
the best. Oh, that's a guy feeling hit for me.

2588
02:14:06,800 --> 02:14:08,199
I told you guys that or Katy never played for

2589
02:14:08,199 --> 02:14:13,079
the Astros again. Yeah, I will take credit for that. Look,

2590
02:14:13,119 --> 02:14:15,239
I miss a lot of things. I need credit once

2591
02:14:15,279 --> 02:14:18,960
in a while. Oh yeah, I didn't say anything.

2592
02:14:19,439 --> 02:14:21,920
Speaker 2: You just give me the side eye, like that side

2593
02:14:22,119 --> 02:14:22,319
from you.

2594
02:14:24,399 --> 02:14:27,000
Speaker 1: Okay. By the way, Aaron Rodgers word coming out of

2595
02:14:27,239 --> 02:14:29,439
ESPN today that he's emerged a quarterback option for the

2596
02:14:29,520 --> 02:14:35,079
Steelers June fourth. You said it, or Keaty never plays

2597
02:14:35,119 --> 02:14:38,479
for the Astros. But you could come back? You said,

2598
02:14:38,560 --> 02:14:39,800
never plays for the Astros again?

2599
02:14:40,960 --> 02:14:43,439
Speaker 2: No, you win, fine, I can't.

2600
02:14:43,800 --> 02:14:47,279
Speaker 1: Victories are so rare for me. I'm like the Miami

2601
02:14:47,359 --> 02:14:50,439
Marlins of predictions. I'm like the Charlotte Hornets. No Matt,

2602
02:14:50,960 --> 02:14:53,119
You're a no Shir Thomas. I'm like the Sacramento King.

2603
02:14:53,199 --> 02:14:53,600
How about that?

2604
02:14:53,640 --> 02:14:54,319
Speaker 2: Is that little bit better?

2605
02:14:54,640 --> 02:14:57,439
Speaker 1: Sure? If you'd like to be a part of the program,

2606
02:14:57,520 --> 02:14:59,720
we are with you today until two o'clock except one three, two,

2607
02:14:59,760 --> 02:15:02,399
one two five seven nine zero seven one three, two,

2608
02:15:02,520 --> 02:15:05,960
one two five seven ninety headlines of the day. Still

2609
02:15:06,000 --> 02:15:11,439
a lot of chatter about Laramie Tunsel. I was listening

2610
02:15:11,439 --> 02:15:13,479
to the A team yesterday. You were one half of

2611
02:15:13,520 --> 02:15:15,399
that team. Was not particularly pleased with the act with

2612
02:15:15,479 --> 02:15:16,239
the Texans trade.

2613
02:15:17,119 --> 02:15:20,279
Speaker 2: What is Smadam schmeezer. Yes, he was not happy.

2614
02:15:20,720 --> 02:15:24,000
Speaker 1: I wonder if he has thought about it and said, yeah,

2615
02:15:24,079 --> 02:15:26,359
the team isn't as a good offensive line, but there

2616
02:15:26,439 --> 02:15:29,399
is obviously a strategy. I think there is obviously an

2617
02:15:29,479 --> 02:15:32,000
overhauled notion to this when Kenyon Green.

2618
02:15:31,800 --> 02:15:32,520
Speaker 2: Gets moved today.

2619
02:15:32,600 --> 02:15:35,199
Speaker 1: I mean, on its face, there is no arguing you

2620
02:15:35,399 --> 02:15:37,399
need your biggest need to address in the off season

2621
02:15:37,520 --> 02:15:39,279
with the offensive line, and you got rid of your

2622
02:15:39,359 --> 02:15:43,319
best offensive line. That's true. That's a true statement. Yes,

2623
02:15:44,000 --> 02:15:46,600
let me let me flip both sides of this. Part A,

2624
02:15:47,079 --> 02:15:48,479
Why in the world would you get rid of your

2625
02:15:48,520 --> 02:15:52,079
one good part? That's part A. Part B is you

2626
02:15:52,199 --> 02:15:56,760
had one good part and you still sucked. Yeah, so

2627
02:15:57,720 --> 02:15:59,680
that's okay. You can have bad rotation map but still

2628
02:15:59,680 --> 02:16:02,880
have a good starter in the mix. And they got

2629
02:16:02,960 --> 02:16:08,399
rid of him. Wasn't an ace, wasn't an ace. He

2630
02:16:08,520 --> 02:16:10,920
was a number two guy, has money coming in, wants

2631
02:16:11,000 --> 02:16:13,720
more money coming in. That's true, and you have to

2632
02:16:13,760 --> 02:16:16,640
pay other guys. But this to me was more than

2633
02:16:16,840 --> 02:16:20,199
just about the dollars and cents. It was yes, of course,

2634
02:16:20,319 --> 02:16:25,600
we need a we need the shed them things, culture shift,

2635
02:16:25,720 --> 02:16:30,560
a shift, and he wasn't fitting in Tamiko Ryan said

2636
02:16:30,600 --> 02:16:33,239
multiple times, we want guys who love football, who want

2637
02:16:33,280 --> 02:16:37,159
to be here. Laramie Tunsil loved Laramie Tunzel's stats. Laramie

2638
02:16:37,200 --> 02:16:41,000
Tunsil loved Laramie Tunsil NFL left tackle money. I don't

2639
02:16:41,040 --> 02:16:43,639
think he had an insatiable thirst for football.

2640
02:16:45,280 --> 02:16:45,520
Speaker 7: Liked it.

2641
02:16:46,559 --> 02:16:49,000
Speaker 1: He's got a you. Okay, you have to have Okay,

2642
02:16:49,239 --> 02:16:51,360
I can't judge to a certain level, right, we don't know.

2643
02:16:53,319 --> 02:16:55,319
But if you want to be in a Borderlando Pro

2644
02:16:55,639 --> 02:16:57,200
All Pro and you're just going through the motion. But

2645
02:16:57,280 --> 02:17:01,399
if you want to be a leader and really carry

2646
02:17:01,440 --> 02:17:06,520
the captain's hat, you're at OTAs, you're mini camps. And

2647
02:17:06,600 --> 02:17:09,920
the reality is this, if you're a vet like he's

2648
02:17:09,959 --> 02:17:12,239
been there for as long as he has been, you

2649
02:17:12,280 --> 02:17:14,959
can be treated differently. You're not going to go in

2650
02:17:15,079 --> 02:17:18,200
there at OTA's and work out like you're a second

2651
02:17:18,280 --> 02:17:20,360
year player just to make your squad or looked or

2652
02:17:20,399 --> 02:17:23,120
look better to the coaches. Lemry Tunsseill, who got the pedigree,

2653
02:17:23,159 --> 02:17:24,680
the history of the resume to say, you know what,

2654
02:17:25,159 --> 02:17:28,360
just showing up. I also don't believe that Jeremie Tunseell

2655
02:17:28,440 --> 02:17:30,280
was a cancer or a bad guy in the locker room.

2656
02:17:30,520 --> 02:17:32,239
I'm sure he had his friends, and obviously there were

2657
02:17:32,280 --> 02:17:34,639
some guys that have come to his defense socially and said, hey,

2658
02:17:34,680 --> 02:17:35,719
we're gonna miss you whatnot.

2659
02:17:37,360 --> 02:17:41,920
Speaker 2: But there wasn't enough to go untouchable. And Demiko ryans

2660
02:17:42,000 --> 02:17:42,280
to me.

2661
02:17:44,040 --> 02:17:47,200
Speaker 1: Like most NFL player coaches ross that have been players

2662
02:17:47,239 --> 02:17:50,159
before do a pretty good job of reading the room.

2663
02:17:50,879 --> 02:17:52,440
I don't know if Bill Belichick could ever read the

2664
02:17:52,479 --> 02:17:57,600
room particularly well. I think he did, he had to well.

2665
02:17:57,639 --> 02:17:59,200
I think when you read the room and Tom Brady

2666
02:17:59,360 --> 02:18:01,959
like and just take care of the room for us.

2667
02:18:02,200 --> 02:18:03,719
I think Demiko is a guy that likes to be

2668
02:18:03,840 --> 02:18:06,840
in the room, look around, get the culture. He's more

2669
02:18:06,840 --> 02:18:08,959
of a player's coach than Billy is. Yeah, I don't

2670
02:18:08,959 --> 02:18:11,120
think Bill particularly cared if the culture was great or not.

2671
02:18:11,600 --> 02:18:14,440
I think he said, I've got talent, I've got Tom Brady,

2672
02:18:14,840 --> 02:18:16,639
I've got i've got my veteran leaders.

2673
02:18:17,000 --> 02:18:17,799
Speaker 2: I'm good with that now.

2674
02:18:18,479 --> 02:18:20,760
Speaker 1: They said a culture of winning over there in patriotal

2675
02:18:20,879 --> 02:18:25,120
for sure, and an expectation level of everybody do your job.

2676
02:18:25,200 --> 02:18:28,360
I think what was that the phrase? It's similar with Demiko,

2677
02:18:28,719 --> 02:18:31,520
do your job. But I don't but I don't think Demiko.

2678
02:18:31,760 --> 02:18:34,440
I don't think a lot got snuck by Demiko. Just

2679
02:18:34,520 --> 02:18:37,399
a guess on my part, because he's he's not that

2680
02:18:37,600 --> 02:18:41,559
far removed from being in the uniform in practice, knowing

2681
02:18:41,600 --> 02:18:44,799
what it's like to be a early twenty ten, eleven,

2682
02:18:44,879 --> 02:18:49,639
twelve thirteen player in the NFL, knowing what it takes

2683
02:18:49,680 --> 02:18:52,159
to be a positive and tangible in your team, on

2684
02:18:52,239 --> 02:18:54,479
your team. He wants a certain type of player on

2685
02:18:54,600 --> 02:18:56,680
his team, and Larry M Tunseel did not fit that

2686
02:18:58,319 --> 02:19:01,639
as well as he would have liked. I'm sure otherwise

2687
02:19:01,680 --> 02:19:06,200
he'd still be here h And frankly, they would have

2688
02:19:06,280 --> 02:19:09,639
probably given him an extension and reworked the dollars to

2689
02:19:09,719 --> 02:19:12,840
make sure that Laramie got taken care of financially. And

2690
02:19:12,959 --> 02:19:15,120
there was money for will Anderson Junior down the road,

2691
02:19:15,479 --> 02:19:18,200
there was money for Derek Stingley down the road, and

2692
02:19:18,680 --> 02:19:23,799
obviously money for CJ's Stroud down the road. But at

2693
02:19:23,840 --> 02:19:30,079
its core, there probably isn't room to mega sign all

2694
02:19:30,239 --> 02:19:32,319
for the guys I just mentioned, and also putting in

2695
02:19:32,360 --> 02:19:36,879
the Nico Collins money that was spent in is it

2696
02:19:36,959 --> 02:19:39,600
too hard to spend super mega dollars on five players?

2697
02:19:40,079 --> 02:19:42,079
One of them is your quarterback? It seems like it is.

2698
02:19:42,440 --> 02:19:49,799
It's going to be everybody needs to get paid. Is

2699
02:19:49,879 --> 02:19:51,879
it hard to pay I guess you'd have to ask

2700
02:19:52,040 --> 02:19:56,600
a salary capologist. Is it hard to mega pay fives? Absolutely?

2701
02:19:57,040 --> 02:19:58,959
I would say so. So maybe you don't, Maybe you

2702
02:19:58,959 --> 02:20:01,360
don't do anymore. Maybe when we start thinking about who

2703
02:20:01,479 --> 02:20:04,799
really needs to get paid. With the amount of money

2704
02:20:04,840 --> 02:20:07,319
that you're going to pay a quarterback and the big

2705
02:20:07,440 --> 02:20:10,000
chunk that he pays out of your salary cap, you

2706
02:20:10,159 --> 02:20:12,000
better be damn sure that if you're gonna if you're

2707
02:20:12,000 --> 02:20:16,200
gonna spend crazy upper third, upper ten percent on money

2708
02:20:16,239 --> 02:20:18,159
in player like for instance, Derek Stingley is an All pro,

2709
02:20:18,280 --> 02:20:20,040
which he is not a Pro Bowl ross.

2710
02:20:20,079 --> 02:20:20,760
Speaker 2: He is an All pro.

2711
02:20:21,200 --> 02:20:25,319
Speaker 1: He has absolutely deserved the right to renegotiate a contract

2712
02:20:25,559 --> 02:20:28,840
to get him paid top two, top three NFL money.

2713
02:20:30,559 --> 02:20:32,000
You're only looking at one or two of those guys

2714
02:20:32,040 --> 02:20:34,239
doing it. If you're gonna put C. J. Stroud in

2715
02:20:34,360 --> 02:20:38,639
that special stratosphere of sixty million dollars a year right

2716
02:20:38,719 --> 02:20:40,959
somewhere in their range somewhere, give me yeah, then you

2717
02:20:41,079 --> 02:20:45,319
can't put every player that you love in the upper

2718
02:20:45,360 --> 02:20:47,799
stratosphere of the dollars. Somebody has to take a fall,

2719
02:20:48,000 --> 02:20:51,600
and in this particular case, it was a offensive lineman

2720
02:20:52,040 --> 02:20:57,079
who was good at times, really good, small window of elite,

2721
02:20:58,680 --> 02:21:02,760
but knowing that at the end of the day not

2722
02:21:03,200 --> 02:21:07,760
p pleasily replaceable, but can be replaced, and they'll do

2723
02:21:07,840 --> 02:21:10,280
it in the first and second rounds of the NFL Draft.

2724
02:21:10,360 --> 02:21:12,559
I think back on the phones, we go in a

2725
02:21:12,600 --> 02:21:15,000
moment seven one three two one two five seven ninety

2726
02:21:15,000 --> 02:21:17,920
seven one three two one two five seven ninety Please

2727
02:21:17,959 --> 02:21:20,200
join us here. It is the Matt Thomas Show with Ross.

2728
02:21:20,239 --> 02:21:21,959
We take this program at two o'clock, believe or not,

2729
02:21:22,159 --> 02:21:25,159
in thirty eight minutes, all things about lambmutunseil and here

2730
02:21:25,680 --> 02:21:27,000
on Sports Talk seven ninety.

2731
02:21:28,079 --> 02:21:32,440
Speaker 8: Back to Matt Thomas and Ross Viial Fine on Sports

2732
02:21:32,520 --> 02:21:33,479
Talk seven ninety.

2733
02:21:37,360 --> 02:21:40,440
Speaker 1: We appreciate you spending some time with us today. Tomorrow

2734
02:21:40,559 --> 02:21:42,680
we've got a shorter show. We're going to eleven fifty.

2735
02:21:43,319 --> 02:21:45,200
We'll have a shut your ball mass up at eleven

2736
02:21:45,280 --> 02:21:50,680
twenty tomorrow. I have to tell the airline to shut

2737
02:21:50,680 --> 02:21:52,319
their ball mass up. I think they just I think

2738
02:21:52,399 --> 02:21:55,639
this is a major major mistake by them. I just

2739
02:21:55,840 --> 02:21:57,680
I'm just a travel whore. I like to travel. I

2740
02:21:57,840 --> 02:22:00,159
like the industry. I'm always fascinated by it. If if

2741
02:22:00,200 --> 02:22:02,399
there was money in owning a travel agency, I would

2742
02:22:02,399 --> 02:22:05,520
have done it a long time ago. But this isn't

2743
02:22:05,559 --> 02:22:08,360
because people are doing most of their traveling using travel

2744
02:22:08,399 --> 02:22:11,559
sites and booking in themselves directly with the airline. But

2745
02:22:11,639 --> 02:22:12,760
that's one of those things I would have liked to

2746
02:22:12,760 --> 02:22:14,799
have done at some point in my life, is open

2747
02:22:14,879 --> 02:22:18,000
travel agency. But yeah, Dark Breast, I think you're goofing

2748
02:22:18,079 --> 02:22:19,799
on this bad I just do. This is a This

2749
02:22:19,920 --> 02:22:24,440
is a shocking development. And they're also adding basic economy.

2750
02:22:24,559 --> 02:22:27,680
Isn't Dark Breast basic economy all the way through? Now

2751
02:22:27,760 --> 02:22:29,959
that you can't get free bags, I mean now only

2752
02:22:30,079 --> 02:22:33,239
you're probably getting smaller seats. Yeah, how can they get

2753
02:22:33,239 --> 02:22:39,520
any smaller? It's terrible this. You're really busted up about this.

2754
02:22:39,719 --> 02:22:41,680

Speaker 21: I've been dropping in and out of the show as

2766
02:23:12,959 --> 02:23:16,079
i've been working here today, and I heard that Connor's leaving,

Speaker 1: I believe he's spoken for At the moment, Eric, I

2773
02:23:34,479 --> 02:23:36,920
think you're trying to create a disharmony between him and

2774
02:23:36,959 --> 02:23:38,520
his girl, and for that he doesn't thank you well.

2775
02:23:38,639 --> 02:23:39,600
Speaker 2: Eric, No, I appreciate it.

2776
02:23:39,840 --> 02:23:43,920
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. You have a lineup like you get

2777
02:23:44,000 --> 02:23:45,360
some engagement ring on him.

2778
02:23:45,399 --> 02:23:46,639
Speaker 3: Nothing's done to you.

2779
02:23:47,959 --> 02:23:48,760
Speaker 1: I can't argue with that.

2780
02:23:48,920 --> 02:23:52,840
Speaker 21: You can always keep the line outside. But appreciate all

2781
02:23:52,840 --> 02:23:55,479
the time he's let me through with my ridiculous act.

2782
02:23:55,520 --> 02:23:56,959
Speaker 1: Grinky tay good. They're so bad.

2783

Speaker 1: That was a non Zach granky cause that's the small

2788
02:24:15,159 --> 02:24:16,040
progress right there.

2789
02:24:17,639 --> 02:24:17,920
Speaker 3: Thank you.

2790
02:24:19,399 --> 02:24:21,520
Speaker 1: You guys don't talk too much soccer. I don't bring

2791
02:24:21,600 --> 02:24:23,799
it up really, no, I mean unless I'm joking and

2792
02:24:23,879 --> 02:24:28,799
messing with you. When is World Cup? Is it this summer? No? Man?

2793
02:24:30,079 --> 02:24:35,600
Four years? Thank god? Now, the Champions League happens every year,

2794
02:24:36,479 --> 02:24:40,280
and of course the Champions League Final out shines the

2795
02:24:40,559 --> 02:24:42,920
Super Bowl in terms of ratings and revenue every year.

2796
02:24:45,280 --> 02:24:48,760
Who's your pick for the Champions League Final? And I'm

2797
02:24:48,760 --> 02:24:51,719
gonna go. I want Barcelona. Anybody but Madrid, please, for

2798
02:24:51,799 --> 02:24:55,799
the love of God, anybody but win this thing. The Tottenham. No,

2799
02:24:57,680 --> 02:25:00,159
you know what your son did? He chose like that.

2800
02:25:01,239 --> 02:25:03,559
Speaker 2: Who's a big name team who just never gets there?

2801
02:25:03,840 --> 02:25:03,959
Speaker 11: Uh?

2802
02:25:04,079 --> 02:25:04,639
Speaker 2: The Yankees?

2803
02:25:06,120 --> 02:25:09,479
Speaker 1: No, it's not the Yankees. Cubs Cubs to a better reference. Yeah,

2804
02:25:09,600 --> 02:25:12,360
he chose the Cubs of the He basically chose the Cubs.

2805
02:25:12,479 --> 02:25:16,000
That's a great year. Did perfectly, thank you. He chose

2806
02:25:16,079 --> 02:25:19,200
the Cubs of the Premier League. Now, they didn't win

2807
02:25:19,319 --> 02:25:21,680
one time, but that was also about ten years ago.

2808
02:25:22,079 --> 02:25:24,559
But they've had decades and decades of close right. Yeah,

2809
02:25:24,959 --> 02:25:28,079
that's basically like Tottenham Hotspur. All right, So I'm gonna

2810
02:25:28,120 --> 02:25:31,440
give you my favorite sports teams and you're gonna give

2811
02:25:31,479 --> 02:25:32,280
me a soccer team.

2812
02:25:32,440 --> 02:25:33,399
Speaker 3: Oh no, here we go.

2813
02:25:33,639 --> 02:25:35,000
Speaker 2: This will be hard, but you're gonna figure it out.

2814
02:25:35,040 --> 02:25:39,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try University Houston Cougars football and basketball. Okay,

2815
02:25:40,719 --> 02:25:46,479
Houston Astros, Houston Rockets. I have no NFL team, but

2816
02:25:47,120 --> 02:25:50,159
these recent moves has given me a little bit of

2817
02:25:50,200 --> 02:25:52,360
faith that the Texans are getting this figured out. And

2818
02:25:52,479 --> 02:25:54,639
I told you earlier today that if the Cougars win

2819
02:25:54,680 --> 02:25:57,520
the National Championship in basketball, I will have room for

2820
02:25:57,559 --> 02:25:59,799
additional despair in my life, and thus I will allow

2821
02:25:59,879 --> 02:26:01,399
the Texans into my house. You said you were going

2822
02:26:01,440 --> 02:26:04,799
to become a Man City fan years ago, and why

2823
02:26:04,920 --> 02:26:06,479
was I a Man's Why would I have trust? Remember

2824
02:26:06,520 --> 02:26:08,879
why you just said, oh, I'll take Manchester City. Problem

2825
02:26:08,959 --> 02:26:10,600
is this, If I told you I was a Man

2826
02:26:10,680 --> 02:26:14,120
City fan, I just can't sit through a game. That's Okay,

2827
02:26:15,000 --> 02:26:16,959
you're supposed to come to a game with me and

2828
02:26:17,040 --> 02:26:20,200
your son at a soccer bar. We'll go get That's

2829
02:26:20,239 --> 02:26:23,079
the beauty of enjoying European soccer. You get day drunk

2830
02:26:23,079 --> 02:26:26,399
and nobody judges. You gotta bring my phone. You can

2831
02:26:26,399 --> 02:26:28,360
have to put it down for forty five minutes, watch

2832
02:26:28,399 --> 02:26:33,520
the game and we'll talk about the nuances, matt offside traps, tactics,

2833
02:26:36,000 --> 02:26:38,639
triangle passing, total football.

2834
02:26:42,639 --> 02:26:45,520
Speaker 2: I got a Rockets game. Uh at eight in the morning,

2835
02:26:45,920 --> 02:26:46,680
I'll figure out one.

2836
02:26:47,200 --> 02:26:50,520
Speaker 1: Are they in China? You know the Impellicans are playing

2837
02:26:50,559 --> 02:26:54,280
some preseason games in Australia next year. Really yeah, so

2838
02:26:54,399 --> 02:26:57,159
they'll be on from like the future. Well, they're not

2839
02:26:57,200 --> 02:26:58,840
gonna be playing anybody from the NBA. They're playing a

2840
02:26:58,879 --> 02:27:00,520
bunch of Australian teams. Mm hmm.

2841
02:27:00,760 --> 02:27:02,959
Speaker 2: Okay, I think we're going back to Alabama next year.

2842
02:27:03,360 --> 02:27:06,120
Speaker 1: I'm rooting for Barcelona in the To answer your question, Connor,

2843
02:27:06,239 --> 02:27:10,600
let's go, Steven, who's your soccer team of choice?

2844
02:27:14,079 --> 02:27:14,879
Speaker 9: I don't even know.

2845
02:27:14,959 --> 02:27:15,399
Speaker 3: I don't want.

2846
02:27:15,440 --> 02:27:16,319
Speaker 9: I don't want soccer.

2847
02:27:17,360 --> 02:27:17,760
Speaker 2: Bless you.

2848
02:27:20,879 --> 02:27:24,079
Speaker 9: I hope you guys are doing okay. They just wanted

2849
02:27:24,079 --> 02:27:26,680
to kind of like talk about the larning tons of

2850
02:27:26,760 --> 02:27:27,520
trade a bit.

2851
02:27:28,120 --> 02:27:28,559
Speaker 3: Obviously.

2852
02:27:28,680 --> 02:27:28,879
Speaker 10: I was.

2853
02:27:29,079 --> 02:27:31,959
Speaker 9: I was a little surprised yesterday when it happened that

2854
02:27:32,120 --> 02:27:34,760
just because you know, as it stands right now, your

2855
02:27:34,799 --> 02:27:38,360
offensive line is worse than what it was last year,

2856
02:27:38,399 --> 02:27:41,280
and it was pretty bad last year, but they don't

2857
02:27:41,280 --> 02:27:44,040
play un till September, and so I'm kind of just

2858
02:27:44,360 --> 02:27:47,319
giving it time to see what Nick and Dimiko can

2859
02:27:47,399 --> 02:27:51,079
cook up to improve that line. And I think what

2860
02:27:51,200 --> 02:27:52,920
it comes down to is that, you know, what did

2861
02:27:52,959 --> 02:27:55,760
we hear all last year from Demico was that guy's

2862
02:27:55,799 --> 02:27:58,639
got to be accountable and he was never going to

2863
02:27:58,719 --> 02:28:02,639
call out a player during a conference. So, you know,

2864
02:28:03,079 --> 02:28:05,000
I think this this is just one of the clearest

2865
02:28:05,079 --> 02:28:10,159
examples of they didn't like what they saw last year,

2866
02:28:10,440 --> 02:28:13,520
and you know, they're kind of just going scorched shirt

2867
02:28:13,639 --> 02:28:15,280
and we're they're going to rebuild this thing, and it's

2868
02:28:15,360 --> 02:28:17,000
it's up to them to get it right, you know.

2869
02:28:17,319 --> 02:28:21,159
So I'm I'm not mad at the trade, but I'm

2870
02:28:21,200 --> 02:28:25,000
definitely okay they got to make some moves to make

2871
02:28:25,079 --> 02:28:27,440
this thing better because as fans right now, this is

2872
02:28:27,799 --> 02:28:31,639
the old line is there's I think there's a lot

2873
02:28:31,680 --> 02:28:34,239
of faith or maybe too much faith in what we

2874
02:28:34,399 --> 02:28:36,719
have at the moment, So appreciate you guys all hang

2875
02:28:36,840 --> 02:28:37,239
up and listen.

2876
02:28:37,399 --> 02:28:38,319
Speaker 2: Thank you for the phone call.

2877
02:28:38,399 --> 02:28:41,639
Speaker 1: Seven one three two five seven ninety seven one three

2878
02:28:41,719 --> 02:28:49,719
two one two five seven nine zero. Do you think

2879
02:28:49,799 --> 02:28:53,040
CJ Stroud how intimate and this is just purely guessing

2880
02:28:53,120 --> 02:28:53,680
I'm our part.

2881
02:28:53,799 --> 02:28:55,399
Speaker 2: Okay, let me give you scenarios.

2882
02:28:56,079 --> 02:28:59,680
Speaker 1: CJ was in involved and involved in every step of this.

2883
02:29:02,120 --> 02:29:05,680
B CJ got the phone call just before it happened.

2884
02:29:07,479 --> 02:29:10,040
CJ didn't get to call at all and found out

2885
02:29:10,079 --> 02:29:15,799
when we found out. Or do you think CJ's was.

2886
02:29:15,920 --> 02:29:17,239
Speaker 2: Like, you did what?

2887
02:29:18,239 --> 02:29:20,079
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna walk you through what we're thinking. We're

2888
02:29:20,079 --> 02:29:23,040
gonna go heavy in the draft. We're gonna get this fixed.

2889
02:29:23,440 --> 02:29:25,719
You know how bad your offensive line was, even with

2890
02:29:25,879 --> 02:29:29,559
Laramie out there, You're gonna have to trust us. And

2891
02:29:29,680 --> 02:29:31,600
I would say he wasn't consulting much.

2892
02:29:33,639 --> 02:29:34,120
Speaker 2: How about this?

2893
02:29:35,680 --> 02:29:42,120
Speaker 1: He was asked about Laramie Tunsel and then they moved

2894
02:29:42,159 --> 02:29:44,280
forward with the deal. And I'm gonna say he probably

2895
02:29:44,399 --> 02:29:46,440
vouched for Laramie tunzell Or said he wanted to keep him,

2896
02:29:46,479 --> 02:29:47,799
or he likes him, or he thinks he does a

2897
02:29:47,840 --> 02:29:50,200
good job and overall, and he wants to he would

2898
02:29:50,280 --> 02:29:52,879
want to keep him. I mean, no one would say

2899
02:29:53,479 --> 02:29:57,040
he's gut or trash. He's a bad dude, get rid

2900
02:29:57,079 --> 02:30:02,360
of his ass. But you could also go to CJ

2901
02:30:02,600 --> 02:30:04,920
and say, we got to take care of some of

2902
02:30:04,959 --> 02:30:10,280
the guys on this team, and including maybe most importantly you.

2903
02:30:11,920 --> 02:30:13,760
You just like I can run around the chicken on

2904
02:30:13,799 --> 02:30:16,399
my head cut off for a year, I can live

2905
02:30:16,440 --> 02:30:18,760
with this one for one year. Of course I don't

2906
02:30:18,760 --> 02:30:20,799
have three concussions. Don't have to show up the offensive line.

2907
02:30:20,840 --> 02:30:22,000
You gotta do something, and you're gonna have to do

2908
02:30:22,040 --> 02:30:24,319
it via draft picks, because if you are paying Will Anderson,

2909
02:30:24,360 --> 02:30:27,040
if you are paying Derek Stingley and c J. Stroud,

2910
02:30:27,079 --> 02:30:29,479
you can't. You're not going to be able to pay premium.

2911
02:30:29,559 --> 02:30:30,879
Is that at the tackle spots?

2912
02:30:31,079 --> 02:30:31,280
Speaker 3: Yep?

2913
02:30:34,200 --> 02:30:37,760
Speaker 1: So I mean, I don't know the team got worse

2914
02:30:37,959 --> 02:30:40,040
right now they are, but I think some of you

2915
02:30:40,120 --> 02:30:42,959
brought up earlier in the show makes some sense. Maybe

2916
02:30:43,040 --> 02:30:47,079
Blake Fisher is on the rise, and that the rookie

2917
02:30:47,120 --> 02:30:49,639
year is the rookie year and go through pains this guy.

2918
02:30:49,799 --> 02:30:52,040
There's no reason why any player, whether this is Blake

2919
02:30:52,079 --> 02:30:53,959
fish or not. Can't have a year where they go

2920
02:30:54,040 --> 02:30:55,600
through a lot of growing pains and Kuback in their

2921
02:30:55,600 --> 02:30:59,040
second year and making impactful part of this offensive line.

2922
02:31:00,760 --> 02:31:03,040
Titus Howard, you re upped, so you gotta find you

2923
02:31:03,120 --> 02:31:05,920
got some money tied up into him. Juice Scruggs is

2924
02:31:05,920 --> 02:31:08,159
going to be another year in the system unless Juice Scruggs.

2925
02:31:08,200 --> 02:31:08,959
Speaker 2: Ross is just a guy.

2926
02:31:10,319 --> 02:31:15,920
Speaker 1: But you've also spent a high draft pick on him. Yes,

2927
02:31:16,159 --> 02:31:18,799
this is where Caserio. I mean, it's not like he's

2928
02:31:18,920 --> 02:31:22,040
voided the he's not voided the position. He just went

2929
02:31:22,120 --> 02:31:23,840
with guys and this isn't un fairly high and that

2930
02:31:23,959 --> 02:31:25,920
just haven't panned out. Everybody that he's gotten rid of

2931
02:31:26,120 --> 02:31:28,799
was on the offensive line that he built, Kenyan Green,

2932
02:31:28,879 --> 02:31:31,840
first round pick, Shack Mason, free agent right, and Laramie

2933
02:31:31,879 --> 02:31:34,360
Tunseel was here. But so he didn't really build Tunsil

2934
02:31:34,399 --> 02:31:37,799
I suppose, Yeah, but he re aire me built tuncl Yeah,

2935
02:31:39,200 --> 02:31:41,479
destroying Texans draft picks and getting a crazy amount of

2936
02:31:41,479 --> 02:31:43,799
money and not hiring an agent or firing his agent

2937
02:31:43,799 --> 02:31:44,639
and signing his own deal.

2938
02:31:48,280 --> 02:31:51,520
Speaker 2: I've never had an agent before, never needed one.

2939
02:31:51,520 --> 02:31:54,760
Speaker 1: I'll be your agent. Would you really okay, let's let's

2940
02:31:55,120 --> 02:31:56,520
I'm doing for a new deal. What are you looking

2941
02:31:56,559 --> 02:31:59,399
to get me here? I don't know ten percent of

2942
02:31:59,440 --> 02:32:02,000
whatever you get. Oh, you just want my money no

2943
02:32:02,079 --> 02:32:03,680
matter what. You're not gonna get me a new raise.

2944
02:32:03,760 --> 02:32:04,200
Oh I don't care.

2945
02:32:04,319 --> 02:32:04,680

Ross on Sports Talk seven ninety's.

2975
02:33:35,479 --> 02:33:38,239
Speaker 1: Do a quick live listening. East Soak Perettes is on

2976
02:33:38,360 --> 02:33:41,920
the the plate for the Astros and the Mets and

2977
02:33:41,959 --> 02:33:42,600
a no score game.

2978
02:33:42,639 --> 02:33:44,440
Speaker 2: Bottom of the six runners at first and second.

2979
02:33:44,840 --> 02:33:48,079
Speaker 1: The first pitch in the Senate in any of their.

2980
02:33:48,079 --> 02:33:49,159
Speaker 2: Four at bats.

2981
02:33:53,079 --> 02:33:53,760
Speaker 1: The one zero.

2982
02:33:55,159 --> 02:33:57,959
Speaker 18: That's a strike on the outside corner. Well, Joe Spata,

2983
02:33:58,000 --> 02:34:00,680
He's made it a point of emphasis to see a

2984
02:34:00,760 --> 02:34:03,719
few more pitches. Feels like that's an area of the

2985
02:34:03,760 --> 02:34:06,280
Astros didn't do so well in and numbers certainly back

2986
02:34:06,360 --> 02:34:10,040
that up. One of the more aggressive offenses in baseball

2987
02:34:10,159 --> 02:34:14,719
last year. Sometimes now they're detriment one one swinging in

2988
02:34:14,799 --> 02:34:17,639
a foul off the catcher single, were goals behind home

2989
02:34:17,680 --> 02:34:23,559
plate and it's one to two to Yorda. And A's

2990
02:34:23,600 --> 02:34:26,040
also part of the reason why picking up guys like

2991
02:34:26,120 --> 02:34:29,440
Issac Parades and Christian Walker for the Astros was still appealing,

2992
02:34:29,879 --> 02:34:32,440
because there are two guys who have a pretty extensive

2993
02:34:32,559 --> 02:34:38,399
history of seeing quite a few pitches. The one two

2994
02:34:38,399 --> 02:34:41,520
to Jordan and that's fouled back to the screen, a

2995
02:34:41,600 --> 02:34:44,120
breaking ball away and it's one and two still And.

2996
02:34:44,200 --> 02:34:47,159
Speaker 1: Even with how aggressive they were last season, the Astros

2997
02:34:47,200 --> 02:34:49,360
still led the American League in batting average and they

2998
02:34:49,399 --> 02:34:52,200
were still second, and on these percentage they trailed only

2999
02:34:52,280 --> 02:35:00,479
the Yankees last year. Second.

3000
02:35:01,280 --> 02:35:03,600
Speaker 18: I'll two a at first excellent speed on the basis

3001
02:35:03,639 --> 02:35:07,479
for the Astros. The pitch swing and a mess fastball

3002
02:35:07,639 --> 02:35:10,760
downstairs gets jord On and a big strike out for

3003
02:35:10,920 --> 02:35:13,120
Garrett trying to strand a couple of runners.

3004
02:35:13,159 --> 02:35:15,559
Speaker 1: There are now two outs and Yanner Diaz will take

3005
02:35:15,559 --> 02:35:16,120
his turn.

3006
02:35:15,959 --> 02:35:16,280
Speaker 2: All right.

3007
02:35:16,280 --> 02:35:18,840
Speaker 1: A little drama here, sal Piner has lined out and

3008
02:35:19,360 --> 02:35:20,760
struck out by Perette.

3009
02:35:21,079 --> 02:35:22,719
Speaker 2: A strikeoun of Alvarez.

3010
02:35:22,840 --> 02:35:27,079
Speaker 1: Two outs, bottom of the six, no score, Mets Astros

3011
02:35:27,120 --> 02:35:29,440
al two bays at first, I don't know who's at second,

3012
02:35:29,440 --> 02:35:30,360
and we go back.

3013
02:35:30,399 --> 02:35:37,120
Speaker 18: To west Palm two bond A second pitch on the

3014
02:35:37,159 --> 02:35:40,879
way and that's fouled out of play behind Holme. Strike one.

3015
02:35:42,440 --> 02:35:45,200
Garrett one of the pitchers who calls his own pitches

3016
02:35:45,559 --> 02:35:49,520
using a pitch com. He's got the device on his

3017
02:35:49,760 --> 02:35:54,600
right side on his belt to communicate with his catcher,

3018
02:35:54,639 --> 02:36:04,000
who is hated singer this afternoon. Bo one A dribbler

3019
02:36:04,239 --> 02:36:07,000
behind home, foul and it's nothing in two not a yiner.

02:38:15,840 --> 02:38:18,079
one the full pink suit that he wore. No, I

3061
02:38:18,120 --> 02:38:21,520

3063
02:38:23,639 --> 02:38:27,479
looking fly that seven footer has a pink suit in

3064
02:38:27,600 --> 02:38:28,760
his repertoire.

3065
02:38:28,319 --> 02:38:30,719
Speaker 2: Where every suit he gets has to be custom made.

3066
02:38:30,760 --> 02:38:32,920
Speaker 1: Correct? Absolutely? Well, yeah, what are you gonna go off

3067

Speaker 2: Really that big?

3070
02:38:38,719 --> 02:38:41,120
Speaker 1: Probably not? I don't think so. How many suits do

3071
02:38:41,159 --> 02:38:46,399
you own right now? Functional one? Okay? I think in three?

3072
02:38:46,440 --> 02:38:49,239
I think three suits most most of my most of

3073
02:38:49,319 --> 02:38:53,120

had a few and I quit. Okay, it's just too

3078
02:39:11,360 --> 02:39:16,079
much work. Say it's like crawfish. Too much work. Okay,

3079
02:39:16,239 --> 02:39:18,440
muscles are way less work. You get your little forking

3080
02:39:19,079 --> 02:39:26,799
jab out some meat. This is about one is one

3081
02:39:27,079 --> 02:39:28,680
one of some of his best. He's got to use

3082
02:39:28,719 --> 02:39:30,600
best of on Friday. So that's not making a cut,

3083
02:39:30,959 --> 02:39:34,680
that's true. Okay, So uh back to we got h

3084
02:39:35,319 --> 02:39:38,239

3085
02:39:38,319 --> 02:39:38,559
Speaker 7: Baby?

3086
02:39:38,639 --> 02:39:41,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, how do you feel about the nickname Diesel? Who

3087
02:39:41,600 --> 02:39:44,239
gave it to him? He's had it for who gives

3088
02:39:44,280 --> 02:39:44,520
it to you?

3089
02:39:45,239 --> 02:39:49,239
Speaker 1: I don't know. Do you still don't remember the origin

3090
02:39:49,280 --> 02:39:49,440
of it?

3091
02:39:50,319 --> 02:39:50,719
Speaker 3: I like it.

3092
02:39:51,520 --> 02:39:54,120
Speaker 1: Maybe it's because he's from Detroit, Motor City, makes sense.

3093
02:39:54,760 --> 02:39:57,840
Went to the same school my mom did, Wayne State University.

3094
02:39:58,000 --> 02:40:00,280
Your mom went to Wayne State. Huh, I didn't know that.

3095
02:40:00,520 --> 02:40:02,840
You know, I've never brought this up before, but you know,

3096
02:40:03,239 --> 02:40:05,719
she would say, my mom and dad got divorced at

3097
02:40:05,719 --> 02:40:09,000
a very young age and childcare wasn't you know, we

3098
02:40:09,159 --> 02:40:11,000
we did not grow up with any sort of wealth

3099
02:40:11,040 --> 02:40:12,520
at all. So she would take me to class with

3100
02:40:12,559 --> 02:40:15,200
her sometimes really, and I would bring coloring book, and

3101
02:40:15,200 --> 02:40:16,959
I would sit in the class and she says, please

3102
02:40:17,000 --> 02:40:19,079
be quiet while the teacher does the teaching, and I

3103
02:40:19,239 --> 02:40:23,760
was great, it's adorable. Yeah, and his reward fat Matt.

3104
02:40:24,440 --> 02:40:27,000
We went to McDonald's on the way home sometimes after classes.

3105
02:40:28,440 --> 02:40:29,959
This had honest to God's story here. I don't know

3106
02:40:29,959 --> 02:40:31,399
why we're doing this, Wayne Staple. We got a minute

3107
02:40:31,440 --> 02:40:32,680
left before we get to play, I believe it or not.

3108
02:40:33,399 --> 02:40:38,000
We would get a cheeseburger, a smaller fries, and a

3109
02:40:38,079 --> 02:40:41,159
small coke. Okay, at McDonald's.

3110
02:40:41,399 --> 02:40:41,959
Speaker 2: It's gotta be.

York line curse. I think it looks sharp. Okay, that's

3147
02:42:29,440 --> 02:42:30,879
the second time they've worn. By the way, the Mets

3148

three balls and two strikes. Well, don't play because we're

3164
02:43:28,639 --> 02:43:32,760
ready for that. I couldn't be more ready, really, And

3165
02:43:32,879 --> 02:43:35,760
now Taylor Scott has walked the bases loaded. It was fantastic.

3166
02:43:37,000 --> 02:43:38,760
Don't bring that up when he joins the A team

3167
02:43:38,799 --> 02:43:41,200
