00:00:01,439 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: All start to you to presents. Off the bench with

00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:06,559
Jacob Hester and T. Bob Abert.

3
00:00:06,639 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, off the.

4
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: Bench with Jacob Hester and Bob aber.

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 2: I got to come off the bench.

6
00:00:13,759 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: Now here's Jacob Hester and T Bob Abert.

7
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:25,039
Speaker 3: I'm having y'all hour number three of Oh TB roll

8
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:26,160
right along here.

9
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 2: One of four FOPN.

10
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 3: And every single Tuesday at nine am, we talked to

11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:37,079
our guy Nick Underhill from New Orleans Dot Football, an

12
00:00:37,079 --> 00:00:41,200
elite website. If you love the New Orleans Saints, member

13
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,079
the who that nation, you want to know what's going on.

14
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,240
Nick's incredible and proud describer, have been for many, many years.

15
00:00:47,399 --> 00:00:59,320
And well, Nick, yesterday we were treated to maybe one

16
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:04,319
of the most gas lighty press conferences I've ever witnessed

17
00:01:05,079 --> 00:01:09,239
in my entire life. I mean, Taylor broke it down earlier,

18
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,040
but I don't know if it's a reading the room thing. Look,

19
00:01:12,159 --> 00:01:15,439
I understand that everything that Mickey Loomis said yesterday he believes,

20
00:01:16,079 --> 00:01:20,959
But my god, that press conference gave me a rectile dysfunction.

21
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 2: Nick, I I don't know. I you you have a

22
00:01:25,599 --> 00:01:27,239
more measured approach to these things.

23
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:32,159
Speaker 3: Generally. I thought that was a god awful train wreck

24
00:01:32,439 --> 00:01:33,480
of a press conference.

25
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that that's I've never heard of a

26
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,079
press conference causing a rectyle is fun. So I mean

27
00:01:42,079 --> 00:01:46,120
that's crazy, that's amazing, Like that's all right. I just

28
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:47,599
gotta I gotta get out on the other side of that,

29
00:01:47,599 --> 00:01:50,359
because that was like the wildest thing I've ever heard.

30
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:58,319
Speaker 2: I know, imagine that that's how bad it was.

31
00:01:59,159 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 4: Dear gosh. I mean, look, it's it's like if you're

32
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,000
if you were upset going into it, like you became

33
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,719
more upset, no doubt about it, Like there's there was

34
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,400
no you know, I think it in like the forty

35
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,919
first minute or whatever, like there was kind of like

36
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,199
a yeah, like of course, we know, like things are

37
00:02:22,199 --> 00:02:23,439
wrong and we got to be better and we got

38
00:02:23,479 --> 00:02:25,280
to look at everything. Yeah, I think it's that was

39
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,159
said in the first minute, and that was like maybe

40
00:02:27,199 --> 00:02:29,080
the first thing I was said coming out, like, you know,

41
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,000
I think it takes on a different tone, but yeah,

42
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,360
I mean it was a lot of you know, it's

43
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,039
all good here and we're going to figure it out.

44
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,159
And I think a lot of people are worried about

45
00:02:38,199 --> 00:02:39,759
how they're going to figure it out, and there really

46
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,000
wasn't conciliatory tone or whatever, and I think, you know,

47
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,479
I think that's probably what people wanted to hear, you know,

48
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,400
my feeling it was probably just a little like this

49
00:02:50,599 --> 00:02:52,680
was exactly what I expected to keep. This is how

50
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,719
every one of these have been forever, So it wasn't

51
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,199
like surprising to me, you know, I do know, like,

52
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,000
you know, behind this seems like there is a different

53
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,240
process taking place, Like I think there's more heads at

54
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,199
the table, more minds at the table. You kind of

55
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,599
hear how things are working behind the scenes, So it's like,

56
00:03:10,759 --> 00:03:13,919
you know whatever over here to me, ultimately, like they

57
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,039
just have to hire the right coach, make all the

58
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,080
right roster moves, and make all the right draft picks.

59
00:03:19,159 --> 00:03:21,159
And I don't get a damn like really what Mickey's

60
00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:23,599
saying like now, because if they get all that right,

61
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,159
like it's fine later on, and if it's not good,

62
00:03:26,199 --> 00:03:28,199
then you probably don't hear Mickey in another one of

63
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,840
these press conferences again like this is kind of the

64
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,719
last stand here, I think, and they have to get

65
00:03:33,759 --> 00:03:35,039
it right, and if they don't get it right, he

66
00:03:35,039 --> 00:03:36,960
gets tired, Like that's just kind of why you don't

67
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,759
get to do this. You don't get to do this

68
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,520
the third time, you know, so ultimately that's what mightus be. Yeah,

69
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,199
I don't think that press conference was good. I don't

70
00:03:45,199 --> 00:03:48,719
think I want anybody over and you know, I think

71
00:03:48,719 --> 00:03:51,039
some of the tone of it was probably wrong, Like

72
00:03:51,039 --> 00:03:54,520
people just want to feel like, hey, like we know

73
00:03:54,599 --> 00:03:57,080
this sucks, and we know, like your life is better

74
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,039
when the Saints are good and when they aren't good.

75
00:03:59,639 --> 00:04:02,560
You know, that's on us. And we're taking this extremely

76
00:04:02,599 --> 00:04:06,560
seriously because you invest your time, your money. So much

77
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,879
of the economy here is built around it. You know,

78
00:04:09,599 --> 00:04:11,960
no one, no one knows that more than me. Like,

79
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,680
you know, I think I think all that like matters,

80
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,240
and you know, it's not set up there, and I

81
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,800
think that misses people off and it's just kind of

82
00:04:20,879 --> 00:04:22,160
you know, you kind of want to hear something a

83
00:04:22,199 --> 00:04:24,959
little bit different, and that was that was not a

84
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,839
win yesterday for the organization.

85
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,879
Speaker 3: Well, I think where it becomes frustrating, Nick is maybe

86
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,360
they are doing the right things behind the scenes, but

87
00:04:33,439 --> 00:04:36,480
as a fan, you want to be able to trust that,

88
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,279
but you can't when seemingly the person can't admit there's

89
00:04:40,319 --> 00:04:42,480
a problem. And there were there were a couple of

90
00:04:42,519 --> 00:04:46,560
quotes that were exceedingly ludicrous to me, one of which

91
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,240
the one where he's basically like, oh, I know the

92
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,319
results aren't good, but it doesn't mean we're not doing

93
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:51,000
things the right way.

94
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,319
Speaker 2: But I understand how you can talk your way out

95
00:04:53,319 --> 00:04:57,720
of that. Probably the craziest is the answer about draft.

96
00:04:57,439 --> 00:05:00,399
Speaker 3: Picks, oh yeah, where he's like, yeah, everybody he would

97
00:05:00,399 --> 00:05:02,519
love more drift, I would love more draft picks. Like no, no, no,

98
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,000
that's a lie that that is a flat out lie

99
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,079
that you're throwing out there, like you're on the side

100
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,319
of everybody else that agrees that more draft picks are better,

101
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,560
when in your entire tenure, nobody's traded up more, nobody's

102
00:05:16,639 --> 00:05:19,439
drafted less, nobody's given up as many draft picks.

103
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 2: So it's it is.

104
00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 3: It is the biggest disconnect between what he's trying to

105
00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:27,720
throw out there verbally and what he's actually done in

106
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:28,319
his tenure.

107
00:05:29,439 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 4: Oh I thought you were going to think a different

108
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,480
quote about the draft picks. The one that that kind

109
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,279
of drove me the most nuts is was the like, no,

110
00:05:36,399 --> 00:05:42,959
we're good at drafting. Oh yeah, you haven't been good

111
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:45,720
at drafting, And what is it going on? Seven, seven,

112
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,959
eight years now, you haven't had a good drafting cheaps

113
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,959
on seventeen, Like I know seventeen like that, that was

114
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,600
a great, amazing draft, But there is one player left

115
00:05:54,639 --> 00:05:57,439
from that draft pass and you haven't added pro bowler

116
00:05:57,519 --> 00:05:59,920
since then. The one you have added Eric McCoy's miss

117
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,399
teen games over the last four years and great player,

118
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,639
but like you need you need more guys like that.

119
00:06:05,639 --> 00:06:07,519
That that one, that one kind of really threw me off.

120
00:06:07,879 --> 00:06:10,639
And and yeah, I mean, look, I don't know if

121
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,439
what they're doing behind the scenes works, Like I just

122
00:06:12,519 --> 00:06:14,120
know a couple of things have changed a little bit,

123
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,160
you know, like that they they got Dave Ziegler in

124
00:06:16,199 --> 00:06:18,720
there and Randy Mueller and you know, Michael Pett, like

125
00:06:18,959 --> 00:06:21,480
all all these guys are I think, much much more

126
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,839
involved in this coach search than they were in the

127
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,079
last one. And even to the point where it's like

128
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,519
you hear that some people like some one candidate and

129
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,480
other people don't, and it's like, well, we don't know

130
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,240
who's going to be, you know, the people we like

131
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:34,879
here until we get them at the table. Because this

132
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,800
guy's never met him and that guy's never met him.

133
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,439
And you know, I think if it was like a

134
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,839
single headed process, like Mike McCarthy would probably be the

135
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,920
head coach right now. And I don't know that it's

136
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,959
gonna play out like that, you know, just because I

137
00:06:44,959 --> 00:06:48,199
think that that there is a listening to everybody at

138
00:06:48,199 --> 00:06:51,480
the table, which which is good, but like the better

139
00:06:51,519 --> 00:06:53,839
thing here would have been, like our drafts have not

140
00:06:53,879 --> 00:06:56,480
been good enough. So like we're gonna change some things

141
00:06:56,519 --> 00:06:59,360
in our process here and you know, we're gonna look

142
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,959
at like all these measurements that we were looking at

143
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,240
before and see how we revalue them and try to

144
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:05,959
do you know, we've been working on a six month

145
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,879
study to understand like why the guys we draft are

146
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,040
so injury prone or like things like that. Like that's

147
00:07:11,079 --> 00:07:13,399
just kind of what you want to hear. And there's

148
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,560
none of that. There's no we won five games and

149
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,519
for the New Orleans Saints that is that is not

150
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,120
worth it. And you know, we know that that we

151
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,040
need to get a better return on our investment on

152
00:07:23,079 --> 00:07:25,120
everything we're doing. Like just anything like that like that,

153
00:07:25,639 --> 00:07:27,480
just come out and say that, even if you don't,

154
00:07:27,879 --> 00:07:29,920
even if you don't, even if you're sitting in your

155
00:07:29,959 --> 00:07:32,480
office and you say like yeah, it was the injuries,

156
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,000
and we know we build a good team and everybody

157
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,519
else is wrong and we're gonna wait it out and

158
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,639
we're going to prove everybody wrong. When you go to

159
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,240
that podium after the season, just say something that just

160
00:07:41,279 --> 00:07:43,800
to to like have the have have the awareness system,

161
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,480
say hey, like let's let's just have the messaging here

162
00:07:46,759 --> 00:07:49,480
to calm everybody down, and we'll do what we got

163
00:07:49,519 --> 00:07:51,399
to do behind that messaging. But we're just gonna say

164
00:07:51,439 --> 00:07:52,720
what we got to say. At least have to get

165
00:07:52,759 --> 00:07:55,519
intelligent to do that, and like that that that's the

166
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,839
thing that's I find a little bit frustrating is that.

167
00:07:57,879 --> 00:07:59,839
But look that that's just how how.

168
00:08:00,759 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 2: I don't care the fans feel about it.

169
00:08:03,439 --> 00:08:06,399
Speaker 4: I think they do care, like yeah it is and

170
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,560
like this is just how how you know, I think

171
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,120
everyone's gone forever and when they were a good team

172
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,720
and you know, we would sit in a little you know,

173
00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:15,519
the media room after and be like, man, like I

174
00:08:15,519 --> 00:08:18,120
don't understand, like you know why, but like nobody else

175
00:08:18,199 --> 00:08:20,240
was noticing because things were good and nobody was looking

176
00:08:20,319 --> 00:08:23,439
like so it's not like it can't work, but yeah,

177
00:08:23,639 --> 00:08:25,240
in these times, like it's just kind of have a

178
00:08:25,279 --> 00:08:27,160
little bit of a socker's touch, like, Hey, look like,

179
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,279
we know you spent all this money on piece and pickets,

180
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,399
and it's not okay that you only got to watch,

181
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,679
you know, a couple of wins at home, and it's

182
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,440
not okay that we haven't been a good home team

183
00:08:36,519 --> 00:08:39,279
for the last five years. You know, we understand that

184
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,960
you're spending your money to come here. You know, it's

185
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,519
got to be better. Like that's that's it, Like just

186
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:45,159
say that.

187
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 2: Nick, what's your faith right now?

188
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,799
Speaker 5: Like, after knowing and hearing and kind of laying out

189
00:08:51,799 --> 00:08:54,679
the candidates, what's you're you know, you're feeling right now?

190
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,480
What kind of faith do you have that the Saints

191
00:08:56,519 --> 00:08:57,840
are going to make the right move?

192
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 2: At head coach?

193
00:08:59,759 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 4: I up like in a in a in a you know,

194
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,960
just like idling and neutral, like it could go either way.

195
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:05,279
Speaker 2: I think.

196
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,559
Speaker 4: I mean, like I understand how the last process let

197
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,159
them there, and I understand that it was a disaster,

198
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,200
and you know, I would hope that there's been some

199
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,480
lessons learned about like why that didn't work, even even

200
00:09:16,519 --> 00:09:19,960
beyond the process of like maybe not identifying the shortcomings

201
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,320
of of you know, Dennis Allen, I like I would

202
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,600
hope that there's been some some you know looking at

203
00:09:25,639 --> 00:09:28,759
that and I and I think there has to be like, Okay,

204
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,000
you hired a head coach who wasn't a great leader,

205
00:09:31,279 --> 00:09:33,399
and you can do that. You can hire a coach

206
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,000
that that's you know, and the strength is x's and

207
00:09:36,039 --> 00:09:39,000
o's and maybe maybe isn't the great you know, center

208
00:09:39,039 --> 00:09:41,759
of culture and accountability, police and and all that stuff.

209
00:09:41,759 --> 00:09:44,120
But like, if you're going to hire that type of person,

210
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,519
which would be probably like a you know, like they

211
00:09:46,519 --> 00:09:48,720
aren't gonna they're gonna interview Ben Johnson, But if you're

212
00:09:48,759 --> 00:09:50,879
hiring a Ben Johnson, like I think you have to

213
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,679
know that, all right, we need to put Dan Campbell

214
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,679
type next to him to kind of handle all this

215
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,159
other stuff. And I think that was the downfall with

216
00:09:58,279 --> 00:10:01,840
da is that they didn't maybe identify his shortcomings. That

217
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,519
I thought that was exemplified no greater than at the

218
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,480
end of last season when when Mickey had to go

219
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,639
down and be the person to give him a speech

220
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,879
on you know, getting the culture back and all that. Like,

221
00:10:10,879 --> 00:10:12,480
if somebody else is having to do that for the

222
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,919
head coach, that means you have a hole on your staff.

223
00:10:15,399 --> 00:10:17,960
And that that should have been filled for three years,

224
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,679
and like it it wasn't. So I think I think

225
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,559
going you know, I think if they do an honest

226
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,080
out of those failures like that, there should be some

227
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,879
lessons learned from that to where, Okay, this this is

228
00:10:27,879 --> 00:10:29,759
what we have to do going forward. I would hope

229
00:10:29,879 --> 00:10:32,200
that that that's that's kind of how it plays out.

230
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,399
But yeah, I think I think I'm sitting in neutral

231
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:40,039
right now, Like I can see it going going either way.

232
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,799
It feels like there should be a decent candidate here,

233
00:10:42,919 --> 00:10:45,759
you know, if it's there's there's it's like if ag

234
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:50,600
falls through, you know, I think that's probably the thing

235
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,440
is is so much more beyond just the coach though,

236
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,000
Like I don't know that I have a lot of

237
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,440
faith in the coach surviving three years right now. That's

238
00:10:57,519 --> 00:10:58,960
kind of the thing, like even if you get the

239
00:10:59,039 --> 00:11:01,840
right higher, like, is it possible to build it back

240
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,120
in that amount of time? And I guess, like where

241
00:11:05,159 --> 00:11:09,000
I get a little bit worried, is it feels like

242
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,279
it's just gonna be a lot of hanging on And

243
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,559
I think you can probably hang on and be competitive

244
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,039
for another year, but then where are you at the

245
00:11:16,159 --> 00:11:18,279
year after that or the year after that, and you know,

246
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,799
are you gonna draft better? Are you gonna you know,

247
00:11:20,879 --> 00:11:23,399
do all the things you got to do to be successful,

248
00:11:23,399 --> 00:11:26,000
Like I think it's just stills so much beyond the coach,

249
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,080
Like they have to nail the coach pick obviously, but

250
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,360
like there's so much that I think you got to

251
00:11:30,399 --> 00:11:34,480
do to build this team back, and I don't. I

252
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,639
don't know, Like again, like I think you can probably

253
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,559
be trying to be competitive next year, but then in

254
00:11:38,639 --> 00:11:41,720
twenty six, like you know, where where's cam where's the Mario?

255
00:11:41,759 --> 00:11:44,480
Where's Pier? And where is Alvin? You know, where's you know,

256
00:11:44,879 --> 00:11:46,879
are you still paying Derek Carr? Then I would hope not.

257
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,639
Like there's just so much that they got to figure out,

258
00:11:49,759 --> 00:11:52,720
and I you know the totality of it, Like I

259
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,600
think it can all get figured out, But does it

260
00:11:54,639 --> 00:11:57,679
get figured out within the window and within the past,

261
00:11:57,919 --> 00:12:00,919
Like I don't know, Like to me, like if I

262
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,879
was running it, like I would probably want to do

263
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,679
like the two year teardown and kind of start rebuilding

264
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,399
a backup, And I don't go, you know, all the

265
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,080
way to the studs, Like I don't believe in that

266
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,480
but like I would probably I shore out the quarterback,

267
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,039
you know, take that hit, be a terrible team next year,

268
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,480
and then try to regroup from there. And you know,

269
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,399
I think Derek Carr is probably a better quarterback than

270
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,399
sam Donold. But like what's the difference, you know what

271
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,960
I mean? Like, I'm not aiming to win ten games

272
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,360
of losing the first round of the playoffs. Like it's

273
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,960
it's great when you're the Saints to look at the

274
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,799
Bucks and be like, Damn, I wish I was a Bucks.

275
00:12:33,159 --> 00:12:35,080
But if you are the Bucks and you're looking at

276
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,799
the Steelers, you're like, yeah, damn, I wish I was

277
00:12:36,799 --> 00:12:39,600
the Steelers. But if you're the Steelers, you're saying, damn,

278
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:41,360
Chase some time wins. And not being able to win

279
00:12:41,399 --> 00:12:43,080
a playoff game for six years in a row is

280
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,159
a pretty shitty Excuse me, it's a pretty terrible, uh,

281
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,840
you know, place to exist. Yeah, so you know, it's

282
00:12:50,879 --> 00:12:52,919
a nobile goal when you aren't there, but that once

283
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,840
you achieve it, is it really a noble goal. And

284
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,279
you know, I think the knowledge there is it feels

285
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,399
a little a little hollow, Like so, I I don't

286
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:01,919
I don't know how you get to the other side

287
00:13:01,919 --> 00:13:03,559
of that. But I don't know if like just trying

288
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,360
to hang on and become the Bucks and hoping that

289
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,679
that turns you into the Steelers is the is the

290
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,159
way to be, Like, because if you're the Steelers, what's

291
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:13,919
your way of getting there? Like you're taking a shot

292
00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:16,559
at Kenny Pickett and it's not going to work, like

293
00:13:16,759 --> 00:13:18,559
ninety nine point nine percent of the time, it is

294
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,440
not going to get you there. And I don't know

295
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,240
what the answer is. Honestly, it's tough, Like it's it's

296
00:13:24,279 --> 00:13:26,039
a tough place. It's a tough place to be if

297
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,639
that's your if that's your goals to win pen and

298
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,919
make the playoffs and hope something happens every year because

299
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,399
at some point, the quarterback matters. And you know, Sam Darnold,

300
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:35,960
who's not going to win you a playoff game, and

301
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,639
you know Derek Carr probably isn't either if you don't

302
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,879
have like this amazing structure on him. And I don't

303
00:13:40,879 --> 00:13:43,120
know how you can amazing structure around the quarterback and

304
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,759
cross you know, fifty million, like if you need to

305
00:13:45,799 --> 00:13:48,000
elevate your quarterback to that level, like it's got to

306
00:13:48,039 --> 00:13:50,600
be someone on a on a rookie deal like because

307
00:13:50,639 --> 00:13:54,399
they need three wide receivers, they need elite offensive linemen,

308
00:13:54,519 --> 00:13:56,919
they need an elite run game to hide them from it.

309
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,320
You know, even look at Jordan Love, like you know

310
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,120
you have to go out get Josh Jacobs to try

311
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:02,679
to hide him. But then you get into the playoffs

312
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,399
that Josh Jacobs has taken away and now Jordan Love,

313
00:14:05,399 --> 00:14:07,960
who's played fifty five million dollars a year and probably

314
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,679
doesn't have a fifty five million dollar arm, gets exposed

315
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,639
and you can't win a game, like you have to

316
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,399
have the right quarterback if this is the way you're

317
00:14:15,399 --> 00:14:17,440
gonna go, And and I don't know how you get

318
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,120
it if you're aiming to be a Timelin team picking

319
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,159
in the twenties every year.

320
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 3: Nick Gunderhill, New Orleans Up Football is the website, beautifully

321
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:32,840
said Nick. Very who knows what the future for the

322
00:14:32,879 --> 00:14:37,000
New Orleans Saints, but we are at a crossroads ass

323
00:14:37,039 --> 00:14:40,679
crossroads right now, and I'm gonna be fascinating to see

324
00:14:40,799 --> 00:14:42,480
the direction they end up choosing.

325
00:14:42,519 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 4: Thank you so much, Nick, Yeah, I have a good one.

326
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: Guys appreciate Nick Gunhill New Orleans Dot Football site. Nick

327
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,440
underscore Underhill on Twitter go obviously give them a fall subside.

328
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:57,600
I mean you're probably fall obviously. Mitchell Knap says, Jordan

329
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:02,879
Love is another Fellas stealing money. It's weird if only

330
00:15:02,919 --> 00:15:09,799
Toyota than could go on year round, Jordan. I mean,

331
00:15:09,799 --> 00:15:14,919
it's it's it's the classic. The quarterback leverage is just

332
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:21,360
such an odd thing because there's so much desperate It's

333
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:22,840
it's weird because.

334
00:15:22,639 --> 00:15:29,679
Speaker 2: Like, how do I want to say this? A team can.

335
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:35,039
Speaker 3: Have a lot of leverage over a quarterback for the

336
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,039
vast majority of the guys because they're not that good.

337
00:15:38,559 --> 00:15:43,279
But once you cross the threshold into oh, you might

338
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:48,440
actually be a legitimate starting franchise quarterback. I said, might

339
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,440
not a guarantee, but if you show an inkling of it,

340
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,720
then all of a sudden, all the power dynamics completely

341
00:15:54,759 --> 00:15:57,759
flip and then they have to pay you for the

342
00:15:57,759 --> 00:16:00,279
fear of letting you walk and go be successful. So

343
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,440
you end up with Trevor Lawrence, you'ing up with Jordan Love,

344
00:16:03,039 --> 00:16:04,960
you up with all these other contracts with these young

345
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,799
guys that sometimes don't end up panning out.

346
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 2: So we're gonna see.

347
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,679
Speaker 5: If, yeah, if you if you're a young quarterback and

348
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,279
You can have one good year, but it.

349
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,679
Speaker 2: Has to be actually, it needs to be your right.

350
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 3: You can struggle at first, but then you gotta have

351
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,759
one good year right for your contracts up. Yeah, it's

352
00:16:26,799 --> 00:16:29,799
all we need. And then your money. I mean Jordan

353
00:16:29,879 --> 00:16:32,399
Love had eight good games. Yeah, and it made him

354
00:16:32,399 --> 00:16:34,080
the highest paid player in NFL history.

355
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,399
Speaker 2: It's crazy. All right, when we get back, what do

356
00:16:38,399 --> 00:16:38,679

Speaker 2: Off the Bench, lead us back. It's a fight.

389
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 6: Almost stream into that home.

390
00:18:37,079 --> 00:18:37,640
Speaker 3: And I.

391
00:18:40,559 --> 00:18:45,279
Speaker 5: Wonder what happens, Like you know, you're of someone that's

392
00:18:45,319 --> 00:18:48,799
close to my age, t Bob's age, whatever, and it's

393
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:54,319
just like every ten months or so, Goo Goo Dolls

394
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,359
is coming out with a banger, you know what I mean,

395
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,240
like every about ten months and then you know, all

396
00:18:59,279 --> 00:19:01,079
of a sudden, it gets to a point.

397
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 2: Where it's like, man, whatever what happened to the Googo dolls?

398
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:05,960
Like what do they do on a daily basis? I

399
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:11,559
think the I think the creative muse is a hell

400
00:19:11,599 --> 00:19:12,000
of a thing.

401
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:20,839
Speaker 3: And when you're in it and you're feeling it, it's almost.

402
00:19:20,599 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 2: Like the art pours out of you.

403
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, and when you can't find it, it can be

404
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:31,200
next to impossible to create it. And it's what drives

405
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,720
people insane with like writer's block.

406
00:19:34,279 --> 00:19:36,319
Speaker 2: And the other thing about art, Jake is.

407
00:19:38,799 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 3: You know, I think we all have this idea that

408
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,440
you will get increasingly good at something the more you

409
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:47,920
do it, which is true. I mean I get that,

410
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,559
I get that for sure, right, Like, Okay, the longer

411
00:19:50,599 --> 00:19:51,880
you do something, you just get better a bit better.

412
00:19:52,319 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 1: Right.

413
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 3: But and it's not just unique to art, but it's

414
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,279
the context I think of it is. But like you're

415
00:19:58,279 --> 00:20:02,079
gonna make your best thing, you know, Yeah, and you're

416
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,319
gonna make stuff after your best thing that's not gonna

417
00:20:04,319 --> 00:20:05,000
be your best thing.

418
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

419
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 3: A director directs his magnum opus and he's like twenty

420
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,759
eight years old. It spends a ret Like look at

421
00:20:11,799 --> 00:20:15,200
Ridley Scott. He made Gladiator, right, and he's made tons of.

422
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:16,279
Speaker 2: Good stuff afterwards.

423
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 3: Ye had a ton of missus right, but he'll probably

424
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,200
never reach Gladiator again.

425
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:23,519
Speaker 2: And so.

426
00:20:25,799 --> 00:20:28,079
Speaker 3: They had it, Yeah, they had it. They had a

427
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,480
hell of a run with the Muse.

428
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,519
Speaker 5: But you know what I'm saying, like you you drop

429
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,640
this banger and you had iris and you got all

430
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,920
still a song, you're still writing, but the pop culture changes,

431
00:20:39,039 --> 00:20:41,000
people change, you change.

432
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 2: Whatever process you have there.

433
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 3: Maybe you do everything the same, yeah, and it just

434
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,039
doesn't just doesn't work.

435
00:20:46,759 --> 00:20:48,759
Speaker 5: And like so now I'm wondering, like do they just

436
00:20:48,799 --> 00:20:52,000
sit back and do they collect money off those songs

437
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,920
and those album cells and they're doing fine?

438
00:20:54,519 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 2: That's also yes, So.

439
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,039
Speaker 3: That's also the thing, like, right, I guess you've become

440
00:20:57,079 --> 00:21:02,400
successful enough if you remove the financial motivation, then yeah,

441
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,839
that would I imagine take away a lot of what

442
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,240
drove you there in the first place.

443
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:11,839
Speaker 5: And you don't like see them when you're driving to

444
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,960
the beach in Biloxi. They're not at that point, no,

445
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,599
you know what I mean. Like there's some bands that

446
00:21:16,599 --> 00:21:18,839
they're at that point who knows.

447
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 3: Maybe they like some of them just retired ranches and they.

448
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:24,680
Speaker 2: It's like cool in the game is going to be

449
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,480
in Biloxi. You know what I'm saying.

450
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 5: They're great, but it's like Google dolls don't get to

451
00:21:29,039 --> 00:21:32,119
that point. But you don't hear him touring anymore either.

452
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 3: It's like Marv from Home alone lives in a farm

453
00:21:34,759 --> 00:21:37,440
in sculpts. He does, I mean, you know he does.

454
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,920
Daniel Sterring, I don't know, no idea. I feel pretty

455
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,359
good about that. Actually, I think so too. It sounds correct,

456
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:44,799
definitely sounds correct.

457
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,880
Speaker 5: If it's not, it it's close. I know time's changed, Dane.

458
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,440
I'm not saying like in the year of Our Lord

459
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:55,359

00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,079
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, somebody wants to take Landra Oh no, I

496
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,200
just want a little Valentine's.

497
00:23:40,759 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 2: A bets of Rett baseball season opener. How about it?

498
00:23:44,799 --> 00:23:47,160
I just your resumes in to my email address.

499
00:23:48,519 --> 00:23:52,079
Speaker 6: I don't know if you'd pick the right person thetting process.

500
00:23:53,279 --> 00:23:55,680
You and Jake. Yeah, Chris, I think you and Jake

501
00:23:55,759 --> 00:23:56,880
both need to team up on this.

502
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 5: If this is going to be before he got kicked

503
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,720
off the batch, yeah, like Jesse Palmer, but didn't he

504
00:24:00,799 --> 00:24:02,559
get kind of get like welcome, Like.

505
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 2: I have no idea. I have no idea forever not

506
00:24:06,759 --> 00:24:09,599
a bachelor, I used to be. Not anymore watcher. I've

507
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:10,200
never been.

508
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,559
Speaker 7: So if I was guessing if I could get into

509
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:15,440
Jay Johnson's head and kind of guess a.

510
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,519
Speaker 6: Little bit, which nobody can that man is I love him?

511
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:20,119
Speaker 2: I love him.

512
00:24:20,319 --> 00:24:23,039
Speaker 6: Yeah, he's the goat, one of the goats. If I

513
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:23,559
had to guess.

514
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 7: Leading off would be Michael Braswell and he'd probably moved

515
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:32,720
over to third base. Tommy White is gone, Stephen Mylam

516
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,400
at number two will move to shortstop.

517
00:24:35,839 --> 00:24:38,279
Speaker 2: Okay, two two, you and Kokie and agreeance here.

518
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 6: I would go three.

519
00:24:39,519 --> 00:24:44,759
Speaker 7: Jared Jones first base, Yep, Pearson left field at number four.

520
00:24:45,519 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 3: Let's take a break spot on you are I mean

521
00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:51,079
so far you and not that I think Cokey is right,

522
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,000
you're wrong, But I do think it's interesting to have

523
00:24:53,079 --> 00:24:56,160
two people that love baseball arrive at these conclusions independently

524
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:56,759
of one another.

525
00:24:56,839 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 2: Shows you there's something there. But look at that top

526
00:24:59,559 --> 00:25:01,880
four to that's beautiful, that's pretty exciting.

527
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 6: And they're all they're all returners.

528
00:25:03,559 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.

529
00:25:04,319 --> 00:25:06,559
Speaker 3: The success that Braswell had last year, being able to

530
00:25:06,599 --> 00:25:09,000
build off of that, the monster freshman year for the

531
00:25:09,079 --> 00:25:14,039
monster baton second, Bear Jones, Think about Bear Jones from

532
00:25:14,079 --> 00:25:17,599
two years ago to last year and now he's coming

533
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,160
back this year bat and third, and then Pearson, who's

534
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,240
just maybe the most clutch seeming hitter that you have.

535
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:27,599
I mean, it's senior, sophomore, junior, senior. That's the good

536
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,680
stuff right there, Okay, who do you think do.

537
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,319
Speaker 7: You talk about the clutch gene though, there's at least

538
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:37,599
two people in that starting four that like Braswell and Pearson.

539
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,640
Speaker 2: Remember think think about the twice yeah, the SEC tournament.

540
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, and in the tournament giving him twice at the

541
00:25:44,599 --> 00:25:47,039
end with the improbable home runs.

542
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 6: Yeah.

543
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,799
Speaker 2: So yes, we we love that top four right there.

544
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 7: So then I would put Ashton Larson at five. He's

545
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:57,279
probably gonna dh so.

546
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 2: And then Kokie has him had six DHK and.

547
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,519
Speaker 6: Then well, okay, so did he have Daniel Dickinson?

548
00:26:04,759 --> 00:26:06,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, Daniel Dickinson fifth.

549
00:26:06,319 --> 00:26:09,079
Speaker 6: Okay, I put him at six second.

550
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 2: D do you even know this?

551
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 6: He is new, he just came.

552
00:26:13,319 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 2: He's a transfer.

553
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 6: Okay.

554
00:26:14,319 --> 00:26:17,319
Speaker 7: So also he was ranked something I don't know what,

555
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,160
but he's ranked something the top one hundred processes. Luis

556
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:26,359
Hernandez coming in also transfer. He's a utility player, but

557
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,039
I think he's probably gonna be our catcher yep at seven,

558
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,680
Daniel Courriel at eight, center field, and then Jake Brown

559
00:26:33,839 --> 00:26:35,839
right field at nine.

560
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 3: Okay, So again all the positions exactly the same from

561
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,880
you and Kochie so strong strong there. The only difference

562
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,640
is he had Dickson and Larson flipped and he had

563
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,160
Jake Brown batting eighth in curio batting ninth. But either way,

564
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,160
I think that's very impressive. You'all ended up with the

565
00:26:54,279 --> 00:26:58,200
same nine and nearly the exact same spot. Of course,

566
00:26:58,799 --> 00:27:02,200
Johnson has said that he thinks up the fifteen positional

567
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,640
players could end up seeing time this year, for whatever

568
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:05,079
that's worth.

569
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, one hundred. They have depth in this roster.

570
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:12,559
And then if I had to guess the pictures.

571
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do we got it for a weekend rotation?

572
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 7: Friday night guy obviously has to be Chase. It has

573
00:27:17,759 --> 00:27:22,519
to be Yeah, So I would guess Chase Shores, which

574
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,640
I'm so excited about the return of Chase Shorts.

575
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 2: Oh yes, dude.

576
00:27:26,559 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 3: I mean last time we saw him, he was just

577
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,640
he was Tennessee, right, it was that incredible closing out

578
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,200
the Tennessee game. Yeah, right, when he was he was

579
00:27:33,279 --> 00:27:35,400
really coming into his own And now we finally get

580
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:36,319
to watch him play again.

581
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 7: Hell yeah, Kate Anderson, if I had to guess would

582
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,160
be your Saturday night starter, we put him in a

583
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:45,319
couple of Sunday nights. Yeah, if I remember correctly last season.

584
00:27:45,519 --> 00:27:49,920
So if you're rejected it's a Saturday Kokie does well,

585
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,839
I'm just going off of like Jay trust him, he's like, uh,

586
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:59,519
the other ones are newer and Kate Anderson has I

587
00:27:59,559 --> 00:28:01,359
don't I don't want to say he's like proven himself

588
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,440
yet but definitely deserves a shot. And then I would

589
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,759
put Irons in Anthony ianson Sunday your Sunday starter, So he.

590
00:28:08,839 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 3: Has Signington is the first option after he's kind of

591
00:28:12,559 --> 00:28:15,039
ware starting Sunday, and really much about Connor.

592
00:28:14,839 --> 00:28:17,039
Speaker 6: Ware too much about where either Junior.

593
00:28:17,519 --> 00:28:20,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is interesting to see two lefties potentially in

594
00:28:20,319 --> 00:28:22,240
the weak of rotation with Anderson and where if he

595
00:28:22,319 --> 00:28:25,400
ends up being that guy, who do you think the

596
00:28:25,599 --> 00:28:28,160
potential closer is? I mean, oh he is, sorry, Kochi

597
00:28:28,319 --> 00:28:32,839
is ionson as the main setup guy. Okay, but Johnson

598
00:28:32,839 --> 00:28:35,079
did say that LS plans on having eight pictures that

599
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,000
he likes in a multi inning setting. Yeah, so a

600
00:28:38,079 --> 00:28:41,480
bunch of options potentially with which to work in terms

601
00:28:41,519 --> 00:28:42,559
of the penn and set up guy.

602
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,119
Speaker 8: Gavin Gidry, Yeah, Ga, I really.

603
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 2: Hope that Gavin Gidrey ends up being that guy.

604
00:28:47,759 --> 00:28:52,359
Speaker 6: Dude, he probably will be, just because like he's done

605
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,440
it well, he was such.

606
00:28:54,279 --> 00:28:59,079
Speaker 3: A legendary Louisiana, right, and he's had the big moments,

607
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,039
just a bit of a consistency that tells him back.

608
00:29:02,079 --> 00:29:04,599
But you know, he has the attitude and the stuff

609
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:09,880
to be just a balls hard closer. I don't know what,

610
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,640
I don't know what. You know what I mean though, right,

611
00:29:13,759 --> 00:29:16,839
like a guy that like choose nails and like intimidates,

612
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,160
intimidates the the the component.

613
00:29:19,519 --> 00:29:21,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, he has the ability to do that.

614
00:29:21,559 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 7: Well that's what you need, that psycho and you to

615
00:29:23,759 --> 00:29:26,720
be a closer. Yes, yeah, yes, and he was really

616
00:29:26,759 --> 00:29:28,559
good at it, so I don't see it.

617
00:29:29,319 --> 00:29:29,519
Speaker 2: Yeah.

618
00:29:29,599 --> 00:29:32,039
Speaker 3: So in terms of the middle relief options, though, they've

619
00:29:32,079 --> 00:29:35,160
got a ton of names, right is William Schmid, Case

620
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,759
and Evans at Cohen Cooper, Williams, J. K Newt, Jacob Myers,

621
00:29:37,799 --> 00:29:40,759
d J Primo, Connor, ben Chandler, Dorsey, Dalton Beck, Maverick,

622
00:29:40,799 --> 00:29:44,279
Rizzy Jake Brown, Kate Woods, grand font No, Connor Simon,

623
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,160
Dylan Thompson. So we'll see. But Landra, I gotta give

624
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,519
you a ton of credit, uh you and Kochie, I

625
00:29:51,559 --> 00:29:53,640
mean this is a person who covers this team for alimit.

626
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,720
I mean, y'all were simpatico. The entire weight here. I

627
00:29:57,759 --> 00:30:01,039
would have had no idea very impressive, very impressive.

628
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 6: Love me some l s U baseball.

629
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,519
Speaker 2: I can't wait. I can't wait.

630
00:30:04,759 --> 00:30:06,319
Speaker 3: And I also love this time of year because this

631
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:07,839
is like when you start to get to know the

632
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,279
new team. It's like former new relationship. And we're gonna

633
00:30:10,279 --> 00:30:12,319
fall in love with this year, like I didn't know

634
00:30:12,319 --> 00:30:14,000
how I was gonna feel about Steven Milem the way

635
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,000
that I felt by year's end, oh last year, And

636
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:18,839
so I can't wait to see who's that going to

637
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:25,400
be this year. Balls Ball's hard closes. It's that old saying,

638
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:31,200
we just need somebody with hard balls. Yeah, uh, Chat

639
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:32,279
wants you to start using more.

640
00:30:32,319 --> 00:30:33,079
Speaker 2: Fade in, fade out.

641
00:30:35,119 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 8: I literally fade every single time the camera changes.

642
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, not as good as me though. He's he's defended.

643
00:30:44,359 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 3: He's upset because his favorite coach, Mike McCarthy is no

644
00:30:49,359 --> 00:30:51,559
longer in Dallas face.

645
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 2: He knows about that. To stop being a Cowboys saying,

646
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,720
because coach Prime is getting the job, that's true, you

647
00:30:56,839 --> 00:31:00,559
get he's getting the job. Yeah, you think I'm kidding.

648
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,440
I think you think I'm no, I think you're an idiot.

649
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,119
Speaker 3: If you do it is what I think. I don't

650
00:31:06,119 --> 00:31:08,319
think you're kidding. I think you're so committed to it

651
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,400
that you're not kidding, which I think is insane.

652
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 6: But yeah, to each a Landros Bunting ever a good idea?

653
00:31:14,599 --> 00:31:15,279
Ask Kentucky.

654
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,279
Speaker 7: They literally get into the postseason and win their games

655
00:31:19,359 --> 00:31:20,400
playing small ball.

656
00:31:21,799 --> 00:31:25,599
Speaker 2: They do. So there you go, guys, have you got idea?

657
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: Maybe?

658
00:31:26,039 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 2: Maybe that's if you.

659
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 6: Got small balls? It's not soliciting me to the radio.

660
00:31:36,039 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 2: I guess that's not good.

661
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:37,359
Speaker 6: I can't be.

662
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 3: It's an HR violation selling my coworkers on air general public.

663
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:44,440
I don't know Matt Sells Musso.

664
00:31:44,279 --> 00:31:48,799
Speaker 6: Right, he didn't. He agreed to it. Okay, I'm not

665
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:49,400
agreeing to.

666
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:50,559
Speaker 2: This, Okay, okay, okay.

667
00:31:50,599 --> 00:31:52,519
Speaker 8: It was like a half agree and saff you're doing

668
00:31:52,599 --> 00:31:53,039
this fair?

669
00:31:55,359 --> 00:31:56,839
Speaker 2: All right? Let me get back more.

670
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: Off the bench, Off the Bench, Welcome back to the

671
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,519
ninth ranked morning sports show in America. Off the Bench.

672
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:20,319
Speaker 3: This is interesting, easy E says, So you guys want

673
00:32:20,359 --> 00:32:21,559
to know what one of the worst parts of being

674
00:32:21,559 --> 00:32:22,799
a teacher is not being able to go to the

675
00:32:22,839 --> 00:32:25,000
rest when needed. I got forty minutes to my class,

676
00:32:25,079 --> 00:32:26,599
left and I have to go to play the Navy Seals.

677
00:32:26,799 --> 00:32:28,960
I guess what's interesting about that is, I mean, do

678
00:32:29,039 --> 00:32:31,319
you ask yourself to go to the bathroom?

679
00:32:31,359 --> 00:32:32,039
Speaker 2: How does that work?

680
00:32:33,039 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 3: Can you tell the just yeah? Can you tell the

681
00:32:35,759 --> 00:32:38,200
kids to just relax for a minute? Or is that

682
00:32:38,359 --> 00:32:40,759
inviting chaos? How old are the kids? I guess that

683
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:41,480
matters as well.

684
00:32:41,559 --> 00:32:42,559
Speaker 2: It's inviting chaos.

685
00:32:43,519 --> 00:32:47,599
Speaker 3: I thought Easy died, bad joke. Take a break, turn

686
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:51,440
off his mic, take a break. No, stop it, stop it,

687
00:32:52,119 --> 00:32:56,200
stop it. You completely arrested the momentum of whatever conversation

688
00:32:56,359 --> 00:32:59,119
we were trying to have about teachers using the bathroom,

689
00:32:59,599 --> 00:33:01,359
and and you killed a teacher.

690
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,119
Speaker 2: I hope you're happy. Congratulations Taylor. Damn it?

691
00:33:06,559 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 8: Uh you think I came up with his screen name?

692
00:33:10,799 --> 00:33:11,079
Speaker 2: Okay?

693
00:33:12,759 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 1: Joke?

694
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:15,319
Speaker 2: Eighth grade is.

695
00:33:17,359 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 3: I don't know if you can leave eighth graders. I

696
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:25,279
mean that could go that could go really crazy, really fast.

697
00:33:26,519 --> 00:33:29,200
Eighth grade may be the worst age to leave.

698
00:33:31,039 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 2: Alvio says, why was he listening to radio wall teaching?

699
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,960

734
00:35:16,519 --> 00:35:19,239
Chances are you got a lot of hormones floating through

your body right now. Okay, Cindy, you're looking at Steve. Steve,

736
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,280

737
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:27,639
that are going on your body.

738
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,159
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, Papa Tea Bob's.

739
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 3: Here to tell you just chill out. Okay, you got

740
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,480
plenty of time for all this madness. Sure you want

741
00:35:37,519 --> 00:35:39,719
to experiment with them making out, maybe a little kissing

742
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:44,119
here or there, that's fine, but don't go crazy. Okay,

743
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,440
let's just pump the brakes. This doesn't have to be

744
00:35:47,639 --> 00:35:49,760
like before marriage. Like we're not gonna we're not gonna,

745
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:50,440
we don't gonna.

746
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 2: Go too extreme with any of this day. But just like,

747
00:35:53,599 --> 00:35:55,280
just chill, just have to fuck be a kid. You

748
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:56,800
got a little bit longer to be a kid.

749
00:35:57,519 --> 00:36:03,039
Speaker 3: Okay, then high school hits and you're just you're just

750
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,400
walking headlong into the grave day by day.

751
00:36:07,639 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 2: Just enjoy this moment for a little time. And I know,

752
00:36:09,599 --> 00:36:10,679
junior high is tough. Okay.

753
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,800
Speaker 3: If you're out there and you're listening and you feel

754
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,559
insecure and you feel bad right now, it gets better.

755
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,039
Junior high is the most insecure time in your life,

756
00:36:21,079 --> 00:36:23,239
sometimes only exceed about high school. But once you get

757
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:24,920
around college, it's gonna start to get better. You're gonna

758
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:26,519
find your people, You're gonna find your way.

759
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:27,639
Speaker 2: Okay.

760
00:36:28,599 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 3: So don't let whatever feelings are keeping you down to

761
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:38,000
feel overwhelming at this moment. Don't give them that power

762
00:36:38,079 --> 00:36:41,440
over you. I know it's impossible to appreciate this. As

763
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,440
they say, youth is wasted on the young. But you're

764
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,480
gonna be okay, don't let it. Don't let it drive

765
00:36:46,599 --> 00:36:47,920
you into the pit of despair.

766
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 2: You got this.

767
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 3: You're gonna be great, all right, kids, Easy back from bathroom? Okay, perfect?

768
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:09,559
Speaker 7: See, guys, I hope there are some eighth graders genuinely

769
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:11,679
out there listening to a couple of them.

770
00:37:12,559 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, So, like, I just have to wait for it

771
00:37:14,519 --> 00:37:14,920
to get back.

772
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:16,880
Speaker 2: Oh there, Yeah, for real, I do.

773
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:17,159
Speaker 3: I do.

774
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 2: I mean I believe that. I do believe that.

775
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 3: I think that junior high is a time when insecurity

776
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,960
is really starting to kick in, and that's the worst.

777
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,119
That is the absolute worst, and you can feel so

778
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:31,239
less than and so bad about yourself.

779
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:33,679
Speaker 2: And extends in high school. I done, maybe even extended

780
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:34,159
to college.

781
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 3: But I do find for the most part, everybody starts

782
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,079
to kind of find their people find their way in

783
00:37:39,639 --> 00:37:40,440
college a bit so.

784
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I am a card carrying member of a

785
00:37:44,199 --> 00:37:44,920
meathead nation.

786
00:37:45,199 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 5: The thing that I was most concerned about in eighth

787
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:51,119
grade was I was fortunate enough to play varsity football,

788
00:37:51,199 --> 00:37:53,960
and how could I get on all those special teams?

789
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, like a couple of other things you were concerned about,

790
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:03,480
But I agree, it's it's it's not the correct answer.

791
00:38:03,519 --> 00:38:04,079
I'm saying that.

792
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,639
Speaker 5: Just that, man, that was my sole focus, Like, how

793
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:10,280
can I get on that field for this team as

794
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:10,960
an eighth grader?

795
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, on varsity? It is crazy. We won the Natty

796
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:20,320
that year Likestay today national championship. Ah, that is crazy

797
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,360
being an eighth grader on a national championship. I mean

798
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,440
I wasn't playing defense or offense. It's just a war Daddy, what.

799
00:38:26,519 --> 00:38:30,199
Speaker 3: Are you giggling about via al nookies comment. Yeah, that's

800
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:31,920
very wrong. I'm not gonna read that on air. That's

801
00:38:32,039 --> 00:38:35,280
exact antithesis of what I'm trying to accomplish here. All right,

802
00:38:36,199 --> 00:38:40,760
