00:00:02.960 --> 00:00:07.080
<v Speaker 1>It's time for Coffee and Company fueled by Thornton's on

2
00:00:07.280 --> 00:00:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven nine day. Now here's Nick coffee.

3
00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:20.719
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's keep the Friday vibes rolling along here

4
00:00:21.879 --> 00:00:24.640
<v Speaker 2>the four o'clock hour as mentioned on a Friday. Right here,

5
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:28.199
<v Speaker 2>Coffee and Company fueled by Thornton's on Sports Talk seven ninety.

6
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:30.519
<v Speaker 2>Sign up if you have not yet to become a

7
00:00:30.559 --> 00:00:33.520
<v Speaker 2>member of the Thornton's Refreshment Awards program, because you're gonna

8
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:36.280
<v Speaker 2>save money at the pump, and you're gonna save money

9
00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:41.079
<v Speaker 2>when you purchase items on the Frequency Club that are

10
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:42.840
<v Speaker 2>a part of the Frequency Club, I should say, and

11
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:46.039
<v Speaker 2>what I mean by that is the Frequency Club. There's

12
00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:49.840
<v Speaker 2>certain items that they have on this long list, and again,

13
00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:51.719
<v Speaker 2>if it's on the list, it's in the club. And

14
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:54.320
<v Speaker 2>the Frequency Club is that if you buy it so frequently,

15
00:00:54.359 --> 00:00:59.159
<v Speaker 2>you get one free, hence the name Frequency Club. Very creative,

16
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:01.840
<v Speaker 2>clever stuff. I wouldn't expect anything different from the fine

17
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:04.159
<v Speaker 2>folks at Thornton's. But just to give you an example

18
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:08.439
<v Speaker 2>of some things that are on the Frequency Club, I mean,

19
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:13.040
<v Speaker 2>right now, you got buy six of the Celsius Energy drinks,

20
00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:16.760
<v Speaker 2>you get the seventh free buy six Red Bull energy drinks,

21
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:19.000
<v Speaker 2>you get the seven to one free. And where that

22
00:01:19.079 --> 00:01:21.760
<v Speaker 2>really pays off is that Let's say you stop in

23
00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:25.840
<v Speaker 2>every day, and I mean I do, but you guys

24
00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:27.959
<v Speaker 2>know I'm a Thornton's man. Maybe you're not a Thornton's

25
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:29.920
<v Speaker 2>woman or gal. You're only stopping in a couple times

26
00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:32.319
<v Speaker 2>a week when you got to get gas. Well, sure enough,

27
00:01:32.359 --> 00:01:35.519
<v Speaker 2>you know, a couple weeks go by, a few weeks

28
00:01:35.560 --> 00:01:37.400
<v Speaker 2>go by. You know when you go there, you make

29
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:38.799
<v Speaker 2>sure you go in, you get your Red Bull or

30
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:40.879
<v Speaker 2>your Celsius or your rock Star because you know you

31
00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:43.120
<v Speaker 2>need your energy drink. And then boom, you put in

32
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:45.359
<v Speaker 2>your phone number at the checkout or you scan the card.

33
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh it's free on the house. Again, you don't get

34
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:50.959
<v Speaker 2>that unless you're a member of the Refreshing Awards program.

35
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:54.120
<v Speaker 2>So many reasons to join. They hook up a lot

36
00:01:54.120 --> 00:01:57.079
<v Speaker 2>of their fine customers throughout the year. I mean they've

37
00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:00.640
<v Speaker 2>given away ten thousand dollars weekly during the hollow season.

38
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:04.599
<v Speaker 2>That's right. Last year November December, they gave away each

39
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:07.920
<v Speaker 2>week a ten thousand dollars and then the grand prize

40
00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:10.159
<v Speaker 2>at the end of the year was twenty five grand

41
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:13.159
<v Speaker 2>a couple summers ago, they gave away free fuel for

42
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:16.639
<v Speaker 2>an entire year to over two hundred people. So again,

43
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:20.439
<v Speaker 2>if I haven't sold g yet that you should be

44
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:24.120
<v Speaker 2>a member, I just need to hang it up. I

45
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:27.039
<v Speaker 2>just need to. I mean, I I've failed if I've

46
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:28.960
<v Speaker 2>not been able to convince you by now to sign up.

47
00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:33.360
<v Speaker 2>But I'm just gonna choose to believe it's not me

48
00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:35.840
<v Speaker 2>and my failure. It's you as a flawed human. That's

49
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:39.120
<v Speaker 2>the way I see it. That's my thoughts, not Thornton's.

50
00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:42.120
<v Speaker 2>So anyways, we'll get this thing back on track here. So,

51
00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:44.240
<v Speaker 2>speaking of hanging it up, that's been a big talking point.

52
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:46.759
<v Speaker 2>Should Tua Tugohaloa call it a career after last night

53
00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:50.840
<v Speaker 2>suffering a concussion? And nobody, I mean most people like

54
00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:53.560
<v Speaker 2>myself yapping in front of a microphone on a platform

55
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:57.240
<v Speaker 2>like this, have no ability to truly give insight an

56
00:02:57.240 --> 00:03:00.960
<v Speaker 2>analysis on something like this. And be shocked if even

57
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:07.039
<v Speaker 2>those that are doctors that have a history in treating

58
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:10.000
<v Speaker 2>athletes that suffer head injuries, concussions, those kind of things,

59
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:12.840
<v Speaker 2>even if they are the quote unquote experts of this,

60
00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:16.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't think there's like an exact like Okay, here

61
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:19.840
<v Speaker 2>we go, we check the numbers, we crunched the data. Yeah,

62
00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:23.080
<v Speaker 2>he's good to go. But if he gets two more

63
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:25.639
<v Speaker 2>concussions in the next eighteen months, then he's got it.

64
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:27.199
<v Speaker 2>Like I don't, I mean, I think not to say

65
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:30.080
<v Speaker 2>everybody's guessing. Clearly, there's a lot of data and science

66
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:32.759
<v Speaker 2>that can help you come to these conclusions. But it's

67
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:34.400
<v Speaker 2>still a risk man, because he could go out there

68
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:36.479
<v Speaker 2>and play for five six more years and never get

69
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:39.319
<v Speaker 2>a concussion. He's never knowing that's gonna happen. But you

70
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:41.080
<v Speaker 2>also don't know that if he suffers another one or

71
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:42.719
<v Speaker 2>two more in the next five six years, what that

72
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:45.280
<v Speaker 2>could do to him long term. It's a very unique

73
00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:50.800
<v Speaker 2>situation when it comes to sports. I mean, guys get injured, right,

74
00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 2>but football, American football specifically, it's not a baby. But

75
00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:59.000
<v Speaker 2>in the grand scheme of things, like when it comes

76
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:03.039
<v Speaker 2>to like society, I think we're still learning the effects

77
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:06.599
<v Speaker 2>of what playing football at that level can do to

78
00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:09.319
<v Speaker 2>someone when they get older. We've seen, like we know

79
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:12.240
<v Speaker 2>CTE is the thing. We know there are guys who

80
00:04:12.280 --> 00:04:15.080
<v Speaker 2>are in very very poor health, rather it be upstairs

81
00:04:15.080 --> 00:04:18.519
<v Speaker 2>mentally or just their bodies in general, because of the

82
00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:21.160
<v Speaker 2>violent sport that they played and where it gets. And

83
00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:23.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't hear this mentioned a whole lot. Maybe it

84
00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:26.920
<v Speaker 2>is mentioned a lot elsewhere. I just don't consume that

85
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:29.040
<v Speaker 2>content or I don't hear it or read about it.

86
00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:32.959
<v Speaker 2>But these guys have never been bigger than they are

87
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:35.759
<v Speaker 2>right now. They've never been faster than they are right now.

88
00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:39.199
<v Speaker 2>I mean, when you get a hit in an NFL game,

89
00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I feel like it's worse than getting in a car wreck.

90
00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:44.959
<v Speaker 2>With the way they make vehicles so safe now, Like

91
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:47.279
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, you you know, I don't mean to

92
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:48.959
<v Speaker 2>make light of it. I'm not trying to make a joke,

93
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.959
<v Speaker 2>but like I feel like I would rather, you know,

94
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:55.800
<v Speaker 2>be in a seat belt and have a car hit

95
00:04:55.879 --> 00:04:58.439
<v Speaker 2>me in the side than be tackled in a football

96
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:01.920
<v Speaker 2>game by an NFL life. I mean, what do I know.

97
00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:04.120
<v Speaker 2>Maybe a doctor's saying, God, this guy's a real dumb ass.

98
00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:05.839
<v Speaker 2>He's gonna get himself killed if that's the way he've

99
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:07.480
<v Speaker 2>used it, and maybe the doctor would be right, But

100
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:10.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying, like football is a violent sport, always

101
00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:16.040
<v Speaker 2>has been, and these guys had never been more physically built.

102
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:18.639
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's it's just scary man, bigger, stronger, faster.

103
00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:21.439
<v Speaker 2>Every year the NFL takes a step forward in that department.

104
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:24.959
<v Speaker 2>And I do think the NFL has done a really

105
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:27.959
<v Speaker 2>good job of just doing whatever they can to one

106
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:31.000
<v Speaker 2>let the public know they care about player safety and

107
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:35.680
<v Speaker 2>to continuously try to learn and develop new ways to

108
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:38.480
<v Speaker 2>keep players safe as safe as possible, and I you know,

109
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:40.839
<v Speaker 2>that's all you can do. But with all that said,

110
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:45.000
<v Speaker 2>it's always going to be a violent sport unless you

111
00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:47.160
<v Speaker 2>don't let them tackle, unless you want to put the

112
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:49.399
<v Speaker 2>flags on them, It's always going to be a violent

113
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:52.279
<v Speaker 2>sport where somebody could, realistically good, somebody could die on

114
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:55.040
<v Speaker 2>any given play. That sounds so dramatic and over the top,

115
00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:58.480
<v Speaker 2>but think about it. I mean, that's not that's that's

116
00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:01.360
<v Speaker 2>not that crazy. It doesn't happened, and it you know,

117
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:04.560
<v Speaker 2>it would be a real rarity. But again, just think

118
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:09.360
<v Speaker 2>about the collisions that you see. So with Tua now

119
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:13.600
<v Speaker 2>having you know, as many concussions as he's had, like

120
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:16.639
<v Speaker 2>it's a real thing for people to be floating out

121
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.600
<v Speaker 2>there like maybe we've seen him play his last game.

122
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:24.639
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm trying to pull up the exact breakdown

123
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:29.199
<v Speaker 2>of like you know, his injuries because he had was

124
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:32.199
<v Speaker 2>it two or three concussions? Trying to pull it up

125
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:35.279
<v Speaker 2>here because it is important to cut Yeah, here's his

126
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:38.920
<v Speaker 2>concussion history. So Thursday night it was his third registered concussion.

127
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:42.000
<v Speaker 2>There was some speculation that he had had a fourth,

128
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:45.319
<v Speaker 2>but apparently another injury that he'd had previously was not

129
00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:51.360
<v Speaker 2>ruled a concussion. So he went last year twenty twenty three,

130
00:06:51.399 --> 00:06:54.959
<v Speaker 2>the entire season where he was very good for Mike McDaniel,

131
00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:59.959
<v Speaker 2>and that led to him having a real kind of resurgence.

132
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:01.639
<v Speaker 2>Maybe that's not the right way to describe it, because

133
00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:03.439
<v Speaker 2>he's a young guy, but early on and it's time

134
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:05.319
<v Speaker 2>there in Miami, it didn't look great for him. You know,

135
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:06.839
<v Speaker 2>obviously we know that he did not have a great

136
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:09.680
<v Speaker 2>relationship with his former head coach, and he threw that

137
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:10.959
<v Speaker 2>guy under the bus. And I would have done the

138
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:12.639
<v Speaker 2>same thing, I think if what Tuas said was true

139
00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:14.680
<v Speaker 2>as far as just that coach just not really being

140
00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:16.480
<v Speaker 2>one that tried to build him up and help him,

141
00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:19.600
<v Speaker 2>and Mike McDaniel doing the opposite and really helping him.

142
00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:22.959
<v Speaker 2>And clearly it worked because toa was great last year.

143
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:25.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't I mean, I'm sure you'll find some that

144
00:07:25.319 --> 00:07:28.839
<v Speaker 2>criticized the deal that the Dolphins gave him. But once

145
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:30.639
<v Speaker 2>he played a full year last year without these kind

146
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:32.439
<v Speaker 2>of an injury, without these kind of injuries, it's not

147
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:34.920
<v Speaker 2>to say that people assumed he'd never have another injury again,

148
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:36.879
<v Speaker 2>but like you know, kind of out of sight, out

149
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:39.360
<v Speaker 2>of mind, and then now here you go. It just

150
00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:41.040
<v Speaker 2>takes one hit to where he leaves the game. You

151
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:43.279
<v Speaker 2>can tell that he's concussed, and now here we are again.

152
00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Like again, there's there's there's legitimate concern that like maybe

153
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:55.199
<v Speaker 2>he should not play anymore. So Mike McDaniel, let's see here. Yeah,

154
00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:57.319
<v Speaker 2>Mike McDaniel did say that Tua was checked by an

155
00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:01.759
<v Speaker 2>independent neurologist and was out of the NFL's concussion protocol

156
00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:04.680
<v Speaker 2>following the last time that he had gotten he'd gotten

157
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:07.800
<v Speaker 2>banged up. So that was not last night, that was

158
00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:09.480
<v Speaker 2>the last time he had some kind of an injury.

159
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:13.839
<v Speaker 2>So I mean, it's it's scary. It's a scary thing,

160
00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:16.279
<v Speaker 2>no doubt, and nobody knows like what he's gonna do.

161
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:19.120
<v Speaker 2>He doesn't know what he's gonna do. But Mike McDaniel,

162
00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:20.519
<v Speaker 2>who I really like, by the way, I'm not sure

163
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:22.199
<v Speaker 2>how good of a coach he is. I did. I

164
00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:24.040
<v Speaker 2>don't have the stat in front of me, but I

165
00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:25.879
<v Speaker 2>did see it. I did here. I think it might

166
00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:28.079
<v Speaker 2>have been it might have been one of the national

167
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:31.160
<v Speaker 2>shows discussing like Mike McDaniel has a really bad record

168
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:33.960
<v Speaker 2>against teams with a winning record, But I like, I

169
00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:35.759
<v Speaker 2>mean to me, I just think he's a pretty likable

170
00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:39.840
<v Speaker 2>coach overall. But he was asked last night, which he

171
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:41.320
<v Speaker 2>knew he was going to be asked, I'm sure, but

172
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:45.039
<v Speaker 2>he was asked last night on whether Tua Tugabalowa should retire.

173
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:47.519
<v Speaker 2>And this is about two minutes, so it's a little

174
00:08:47.600 --> 00:08:51.000
<v Speaker 2>lengthy as far as clips that that we typically play

175
00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:54.519
<v Speaker 2>on this show. But I I love this guy, meaning McDaniel,

176
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:56.519
<v Speaker 2>and I don't think he could have answered this any

177
00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:01.120
<v Speaker 2>better and handled it any better given the circumstance. I think.

178
00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:09.320
<v Speaker 3>It would be so so wrong of me two to

179
00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:14.840
<v Speaker 3>even sniff that subject. And and it's more in line

180
00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:20.600
<v Speaker 3>of actually caring about the human being. And you know,

181
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:26.720
<v Speaker 3>that's something that that entirely you're talking about his career, right,

182
00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:33.360
<v Speaker 3>His career is his, you know, and that's something that

183
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:38.000
<v Speaker 3>I think I just really really really wish I totally

184
00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:43.039
<v Speaker 3>understand it, and it's not misplaced. I totally get how

185
00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:45.919
<v Speaker 3>that's where people want to go to. I just wish

186
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:49.840
<v Speaker 3>that people would for seconds hear what I'm saying that

187
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:55.240
<v Speaker 3>bringing up his future is not the best interest of him.

188
00:09:55.320 --> 00:10:00.080
<v Speaker 3>So you know, I'm gonna plead with everybody that you

189
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:05.000
<v Speaker 3>know that does genuinely care that that should be the

190
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:07.720
<v Speaker 3>last thing on your mind because you don't like, what

191
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:11.879
<v Speaker 3>do you think that's if? If if I would answer

192
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:14.440
<v Speaker 3>that question, I'd be like, all right, this is this

193
00:10:14.519 --> 00:10:18.399
<v Speaker 3>is my thoughts on his career. If he read it,

194
00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:23.159
<v Speaker 3>if he felt if he agreed with it, or he

195
00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:25.639
<v Speaker 3>disagreed with it. Either way, I've just made him worse.

196
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:33.960
<v Speaker 3>So I'm not taking this opportunity to just not you know,

197
00:10:34.279 --> 00:10:38.279
<v Speaker 3>I don't think it's appropriate simply because of my care

198
00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:42.840
<v Speaker 3>and regard and I don't think those types of conversations

199
00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:46.720
<v Speaker 3>when we were talking about somebody's somebody's career, I think

200
00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:50.639
<v Speaker 3>it probably is only fair that their career should be

201
00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:52.000
<v Speaker 3>decided by them. You know.

202
00:10:52.879 --> 00:10:56.440
<v Speaker 2>So I hadn't mentioned this yet, but by the way

203
00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:59.399
<v Speaker 2>that sound you heard there, there was a zoom press conference.

204
00:10:59.480 --> 00:11:03.679
<v Speaker 2>So the s I d's gotta gotta silence that feature.

205
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:05.480
<v Speaker 2>So like somebody if you're doing a zoom press or

206
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:09.519
<v Speaker 2>somebody's gotta you gotta like push a button or like

207
00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:10.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if you can, like I think you

208
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:12.639
<v Speaker 2>raise your hand or something within a zoom or a

209
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:14.799
<v Speaker 2>team's call. Not literally raise your hand, but like there's

210
00:11:14.840 --> 00:11:17.000
<v Speaker 2>a button that you hit and it tells you, Okay,

211
00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:18.840
<v Speaker 2>this person's on the call, they have a next question.

212
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:21.519
<v Speaker 2>That was why that sound came in. But nonetheless, I

213
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:24.559
<v Speaker 2>don't I don't want to say, I don't need I

214
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:26.759
<v Speaker 2>don't know. It's uncomfortable. I don't know the right word

215
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:30.600
<v Speaker 2>to use. But DeMar Hamlin, the guy who died on

216
00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:33.120
<v Speaker 2>a football field two years ago and you know, came

217
00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:36.360
<v Speaker 2>back to life, him being the guy that hit to

218
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:42.480
<v Speaker 2>a That's crazy, is it not weird? It's eerie. I mean,

219
00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:46.200
<v Speaker 2>that's eerie. I wonder how he feels. He you know,

220
00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:48.399
<v Speaker 2>he was you know, I I think you could tell

221
00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:50.720
<v Speaker 2>body language from him. He was, he was pretty. He

222
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:53.480
<v Speaker 2>didn't do anything dirty, but he realized that he like

223
00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:56.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, everybody in the league knows too his situation,

224
00:11:57.000 --> 00:11:59.440
<v Speaker 2>and you know, he's somebody who knows firsthand how scary

225
00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:01.440
<v Speaker 2>it can be to to have your livelihood, your life

226
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:05.240
<v Speaker 2>potentially being you know, with him. I don't think it's

227
00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.039
<v Speaker 2>crazy to say his life was in jeopardy. He was dead.

228
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:11.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's what happened. But you know, I among

229
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:13.279
<v Speaker 2>many other players in the NFL, including those that played

230
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:16.000
<v Speaker 2>in the game last night, all sharing you know, well,

231
00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:18.720
<v Speaker 2>wishes for Tua tomorrow. Hamlin was one of them. But man,

232
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:23.080
<v Speaker 2>I I'm trying not to make any kind of light

233
00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:26.039
<v Speaker 2>of the situation, but are you kidding me? Tomorrow Hamlin

234
00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:29.039
<v Speaker 2>being the guy that wasn't on the other end of

235
00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:33.759
<v Speaker 2>the collision here, Like that's crazy. So look, if I

236
00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:37.200
<v Speaker 2>was to you know, and I was in my early

237
00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:41.519
<v Speaker 2>twenties and at this point in my life, I would

238
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:43.320
<v Speaker 2>hope that I don't know if Tua has children, if

239
00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:47.320
<v Speaker 2>he's married, Like, even if he does it as a

240
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:51.120
<v Speaker 2>young adult, his life has probably been football since he

241
00:12:51.120 --> 00:12:54.960
<v Speaker 2>can remember. So you know, there's that weird there's that

242
00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:57.480
<v Speaker 2>weird thing that athletes go through, especially those in college

243
00:12:57.480 --> 00:12:59.639
<v Speaker 2>that don't get a chance to play professionally. Like, you

244
00:12:59.679 --> 00:13:05.519
<v Speaker 2>haven't emptiness in you you have really unless you're just

245
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:08.279
<v Speaker 2>driven and you know why you're playing the game. What

246
00:13:08.360 --> 00:13:11.600
<v Speaker 2>you're going to do post life after your playing career ends,

247
00:13:12.399 --> 00:13:14.559
<v Speaker 2>and some people do and then they kind of lose

248
00:13:14.600 --> 00:13:17.159
<v Speaker 2>their way. Like if you have given your whole life,

249
00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:19.320
<v Speaker 2>like every bit of time and energy and effort into

250
00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:21.320
<v Speaker 2>your career as an athlete, and it's led to you

251
00:13:21.360 --> 00:13:24.559
<v Speaker 2>having the opportunity to play high level in college even

252
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:26.879
<v Speaker 2>maybe briefly in the NFL, Like once you realize that

253
00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:28.600
<v Speaker 2>that part of your life is over and you got

254
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:31.320
<v Speaker 2>to find something else. That can be difficult for people.

255
00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:33.960
<v Speaker 2>In fact, there's not enough attention on that, Like it's

256
00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:36.600
<v Speaker 2>a mental health thing for these athletes who when it's over,

257
00:13:36.639 --> 00:13:38.120
<v Speaker 2>they don't even know they don't they feel like they

258
00:13:38.080 --> 00:13:40.240
<v Speaker 2>don't have a purpose because that's all they've ever done.

259
00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:42.320
<v Speaker 2>So like if you're too a and again, I'm just

260
00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:44.480
<v Speaker 2>trying to put myself in issues, which is impossible to do,

261
00:13:44.519 --> 00:13:47.480
<v Speaker 2>but I'll give it a shot anyway. If I was

262
00:13:47.519 --> 00:13:53.600
<v Speaker 2>told by a doctor, hey, you have had a lot

263
00:13:53.639 --> 00:13:56.039
<v Speaker 2>of concussions, and I can't sit here and tell you

264
00:13:56.120 --> 00:13:57.639
<v Speaker 2>that you're not cleared to play because we have no

265
00:13:57.679 --> 00:13:59.639
<v Speaker 2>clip if you'll ever have a concussion or not. We

266
00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:02.879
<v Speaker 2>know football is dangerous, but you played the whole season

267
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:05.440
<v Speaker 2>last year at the same position, quarterback, and you didn't

268
00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:09.759
<v Speaker 2>have a concussion. So it's up to you. You can

269
00:14:09.879 --> 00:14:12.720
<v Speaker 2>risk it. It's a risk. Everybody knows that, but like

270
00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:15.519
<v Speaker 2>it's your call. I feel like if I was him,

271
00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:17.240
<v Speaker 2>I would say, well, I don't even know what else

272
00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:18.639
<v Speaker 2>I would do in my life, So I'm going to

273
00:14:18.679 --> 00:14:21.080
<v Speaker 2>play football. That's all I know. And I'm going to

274
00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:23.840
<v Speaker 2>choose to just believe that I'll be safe because this

275
00:14:23.879 --> 00:14:26.159
<v Speaker 2>is my safe place being a football player. That sounds

276
00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:29.399
<v Speaker 2>so stupid and small minded and just like tunnel vision.

277
00:14:29.480 --> 00:14:31.759
<v Speaker 2>But like, and I don't know too well. I mean

278
00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:32.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't know to it all, but like I don't

279
00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:35.080
<v Speaker 2>know his situation. Like I feel like if I was

280
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:37.559
<v Speaker 2>if I had children, and like I at least had

281
00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:41.639
<v Speaker 2>given some thought about life after playing, because I knew it,

282
00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:44.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, I just had that maturity. Like maybe it'd

283
00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:46.720
<v Speaker 2>be a different conversation. But I just think if they

284
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:49.240
<v Speaker 2>put it in his hands, like gosh, I can't imagine

285
00:14:49.279 --> 00:14:51.799
<v Speaker 2>how difficult that would be. Because again not to say

286
00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:53.879
<v Speaker 2>he's just a football player, shut up and play football,

287
00:14:53.919 --> 00:14:55.840
<v Speaker 2>you serve no other purpose, but again to get to

288
00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:58.360
<v Speaker 2>that level, to be as successful as a lot of

289
00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:01.639
<v Speaker 2>these guys are, you know, elite quarterbacks in the NFL.

290
00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:03.240
<v Speaker 2>You got to give it everything you have. It has

291
00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:04.840
<v Speaker 2>to be your life, it has to consume you. It

292
00:15:04.879 --> 00:15:07.679
<v Speaker 2>is your craft, it is your job, it's your livelihood.

293
00:15:07.720 --> 00:15:10.559
<v Speaker 2>And it has been probably for you know, the last

294
00:15:10.559 --> 00:15:12.960
<v Speaker 2>fifteen twenty years of his life. However old he is,

295
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:16.840
<v Speaker 2>so really just a rare situation in sports. That is

296
00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:19.600
<v Speaker 2>just you know, I cause, again this may shock some

297
00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:22.519
<v Speaker 2>of you. I have no experience or knowledge, and you

298
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:26.960
<v Speaker 2>know neurology and brain injuries of any capacity, especially those

299
00:15:27.000 --> 00:15:32.159
<v Speaker 2>in sports, but there cannot be a specific Like I

300
00:15:32.279 --> 00:15:34.120
<v Speaker 2>put it this way, I have a hard time seeing

301
00:15:34.440 --> 00:15:36.799
<v Speaker 2>somebody from a medical standpoint be able to tell him

302
00:15:36.879 --> 00:15:38.960
<v Speaker 2>you're not allowed to play. We're going to tell the

303
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:42.200
<v Speaker 2>NFL you can't play anymore. So without that, like if

304
00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:44.399
<v Speaker 2>it is just up to him, man, that just it'd

305
00:15:44.440 --> 00:15:48.679
<v Speaker 2>be such a tough decision, it really would. And it's sad,

306
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:49.039
<v Speaker 2>you know.

307
00:15:49.080 --> 00:15:50.039
<v Speaker 1>And I.

308
00:15:51.559 --> 00:15:55.840
<v Speaker 2>It's not like again, everybody gets their bell rung right

309
00:15:55.919 --> 00:15:58.679
<v Speaker 2>like it happens in football. But like if I'm too,

310
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:00.840
<v Speaker 2>I'd be thinking why me, Like why do I have

311
00:16:00.960 --> 00:16:03.120
<v Speaker 2>bad luck? Like what am I doing differently than all

312
00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:05.759
<v Speaker 2>the other guys out there that are playing this violent sport.

313
00:16:06.720 --> 00:16:10.120
<v Speaker 2>It's crazy, all right. We got Brooks and Done tickets

314
00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:12.480
<v Speaker 2>to give away, folks. I think we're gonna do trivia again, John,

315
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:15.120
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna do band named trivia, or we're gonna do

316
00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:17.279
<v Speaker 2>something else. I'm gonna give it some thought during the break,

317
00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:19.759
<v Speaker 2>but Cove thirty will be the giveaway, and uh, I'm

318
00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:21.720
<v Speaker 2>gonna try to do something different. I don't want to

319
00:16:21.720 --> 00:16:23.480
<v Speaker 2>promise that it's gonna be like something we've never done

320
00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:25.919
<v Speaker 2>before to give tickets away, but I'm gonna try to

321
00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:28.159
<v Speaker 2>get creative as best I can. No promises that it'll be.

322
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:30.159
<v Speaker 2>You know, people don't care about creativity. They just want

323
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:32.320
<v Speaker 2>to win. They want to they want to get tickets

324
00:16:32.720 --> 00:16:35.000
<v Speaker 2>to boot scooting boog either way down to the kfcum

325
00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:37.639
<v Speaker 2>Center in April to see Brooks and Done. And I'll

326
00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:40.200
<v Speaker 2>be there too, by the way. So I mean, if

327
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:43.480
<v Speaker 2>that doesn't add a little extra to the to the win,

328
00:16:43.639 --> 00:16:45.320
<v Speaker 2>to the prize you'll get to go and I'll be

329
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:50.039
<v Speaker 2>there too, Then that make it more appealing, John, I mean,

330
00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:52.279
<v Speaker 2>why not? I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm sure you know

331
00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:54.159
<v Speaker 2>that doesn't that doesn't entice you in anyway. You just

332
00:16:54.159 --> 00:16:55.559
<v Speaker 2>want to go see Brooks and done and I get it.

333
00:16:55.759 --> 00:16:57.320
<v Speaker 2>All right, Let's go to the text line five two

334
00:16:57.360 --> 00:16:59.320
<v Speaker 2>six five three zero seven ninety is the number if

335
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:01.519
<v Speaker 2>you guys would like to take again the L and

336
00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:04.000
<v Speaker 2>N Federal Credit Union text line. This text says, Nick,

337
00:17:04.039 --> 00:17:07.039
<v Speaker 2>if you could only bet on the UK Georgia game

338
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:10.359
<v Speaker 2>and you had to empty your account, even though you

339
00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:13.720
<v Speaker 2>hate Kentucky, would you take Georgia to cover the monster number? Again?

340
00:17:13.759 --> 00:17:16.319
<v Speaker 2>It's the only bet you can make this weekend. First

341
00:17:16.319 --> 00:17:18.000
<v Speaker 2>of all, I don't I don't have to follow your rules.

342
00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:20.559
<v Speaker 2>But again, this is a hypothetical. I'll tell you this.

343
00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:23.519
<v Speaker 2>That's a good question, and I hear I am trying

344
00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:25.480
<v Speaker 2>to answer without giving it any thought until you just

345
00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:28.000
<v Speaker 2>ask me. I'm gonna go see what the number is

346
00:17:28.079 --> 00:17:32.000
<v Speaker 2>right now. But until I find the number, I kind

347
00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:36.119
<v Speaker 2>of feel like I would take Kentucky to cover. Maybe

348
00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:40.440
<v Speaker 2>that's me just assuming that George is gonna show some mercy.

349
00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:42.680
<v Speaker 4>What good does it do them to show mercy? I

350
00:17:42.720 --> 00:17:44.640
<v Speaker 4>know it's kind of a be a courtesy to brock

351
00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:45.160
<v Speaker 4>a Vandigars.

352
00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:46.359
<v Speaker 2>That was it. That was the only thing I can

353
00:17:46.400 --> 00:17:50.599
<v Speaker 2>think of it's at twenty two now, like I if

354
00:17:50.640 --> 00:17:53.799
<v Speaker 2>I had again, if you're telling me that I only

355
00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:56.240
<v Speaker 2>can bet on one game and I have to bet

356
00:17:56.319 --> 00:18:00.039
<v Speaker 2>every bit that's in my account, and you know, my my,

357
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:02.519
<v Speaker 2>my livelihood as a better the rest of this season

358
00:18:02.519 --> 00:18:05.319
<v Speaker 2>on college football is dependent upon me getting this game

359
00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:09.440
<v Speaker 2>right minus twenty two, I would take Georgia. If it

360
00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:11.880
<v Speaker 2>got to like minus twenty four and a half, I'd

361
00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:17.799
<v Speaker 2>probably take Kentucky. And I don't put it this way.

362
00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:20.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't believe Kentucky is as bad as what they

363
00:18:20.119 --> 00:18:23.640
<v Speaker 2>look like against South Carolina. And that's what actually is

364
00:18:23.680 --> 00:18:26.759
<v Speaker 2>more troubling for Kentucky fans and their I guess belief

365
00:18:26.759 --> 00:18:28.599
<v Speaker 2>in Mark Stoops is the guy moving forward. Not to

366
00:18:28.599 --> 00:18:30.359
<v Speaker 2>say that they all went and fired, but like what

367
00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:32.319
<v Speaker 2>happens the rest of this season will be a big

368
00:18:32.400 --> 00:18:35.799
<v Speaker 2>time will be a big time factor in how Kentucky

369
00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:38.319
<v Speaker 2>fans look at their program moving forward. And again, I

370
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:40.519
<v Speaker 2>don't think that even if he went three and nine,

371
00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:43.799
<v Speaker 2>four and eight, you would see the majority of their

372
00:18:43.799 --> 00:18:46.759
<v Speaker 2>fan base encouraging Barnhart to push him out. But like

373
00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:49.000
<v Speaker 2>it would be one of those things where you just

374
00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:51.400
<v Speaker 2>have to say to yourself now this is run its course,

375
00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:57.880
<v Speaker 2>and he's not happy. The best football that he had,

376
00:18:58.160 --> 00:19:00.400
<v Speaker 2>the best football for him at Kentucky is in pass

377
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:04.160
<v Speaker 2>like we need something fresh. He's clearly overworked. He let

378
00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:08.680
<v Speaker 2>you know that before the season started. So I I

379
00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:12.559
<v Speaker 2>think I think Kentucky. I mean they got good players, man,

380
00:19:12.599 --> 00:19:14.519
<v Speaker 2>like that's I wish I could say that they had

381
00:19:14.599 --> 00:19:17.319
<v Speaker 2>Joker Phillips caliber talent, but they don't. They've got really

382
00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:20.759
<v Speaker 2>good players. They've got some injury issues going on. I

383
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:22.680
<v Speaker 2>don't know if did you see Vandergrips banged up. He's

384
00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:25.839
<v Speaker 2>on the injury report. If he doesn't play, it's it's

385
00:19:25.839 --> 00:19:27.359
<v Speaker 2>a different game. But I think he will play out.

386
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:29.000
<v Speaker 2>They didn't list him as out, but on the SEC

387
00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:31.440
<v Speaker 2>injury report that all schools in the league are required

388
00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:35.400
<v Speaker 2>to submit, he was listed. So you know, I just

389
00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:38.559
<v Speaker 2>think that Georgia will. So yeah, minus twenty two, I

390
00:19:38.599 --> 00:19:40.440
<v Speaker 2>would take Georgia. I'm not touching this game, by the way.

391
00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:43.000
<v Speaker 2>If I do, though, I would take what I would take.

392
00:19:43.039 --> 00:19:46.440
<v Speaker 2>What Brian Edwards Vegas Insider throughout there yesterday. I think

393
00:19:46.839 --> 00:19:50.720
<v Speaker 2>if you just look at the total points for for

394
00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Georgia here, let's see here, Yeah, team yeah. I mean

395
00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:58.559
<v Speaker 2>Georgia over thirty four and a half is plus one

396
00:19:58.640 --> 00:20:00.640
<v Speaker 2>oh five. I think that's probably the best bet here

397
00:20:00.680 --> 00:20:02.400
<v Speaker 2>in this game, because I think George is gonna score

398
00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:05.359
<v Speaker 2>as many points as they want. And with Kentucky, you know,

399
00:20:05.400 --> 00:20:07.559
<v Speaker 2>they've got really good players on the outside. I mean,

400
00:20:07.599 --> 00:20:09.720
<v Speaker 2>I think they've got some good tight ends. I certainly

401
00:20:09.720 --> 00:20:11.920
<v Speaker 2>know what they have with Barry and Brown and Dame Key,

402
00:20:13.400 --> 00:20:16.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, but in their quarterback may be good. I mean,

403
00:20:16.319 --> 00:20:18.400
<v Speaker 2>it's impossible to know. He didn't look good the other day,

404
00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:20.799
<v Speaker 2>but I do think he deserves a little bit of

405
00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:22.480
<v Speaker 2>the benefit of the doubt because of how bad his

406
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:25.440
<v Speaker 2>offensive line was. But Ken Spencer said something earlier this

407
00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:27.880
<v Speaker 2>week about about Brock Vandergriff that really stood out to me,

408
00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:31.000
<v Speaker 2>and that was that he started seeing ghosts out there

409
00:20:31.039 --> 00:20:33.640
<v Speaker 2>just throwing terrible balls because the pressure had been there,

410
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:35.640
<v Speaker 2>and it was there consistently, and he was just overwhelmed,

411
00:20:35.640 --> 00:20:39.000
<v Speaker 2>as most quarterbacks would. But like, if you are special

412
00:20:39.039 --> 00:20:41.720
<v Speaker 2>as a quarterback, you really never see ghosts like that.

413
00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:46.440
<v Speaker 2>So hearing Kirby Smart talk about how much he loved

414
00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Brock Vandergriff and how much you know, he's a Georgia boy,

415
00:20:50.039 --> 00:20:52.039
<v Speaker 2>he's always going to be a Georgia Bulldog. He won

416
00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:55.279
<v Speaker 2>two national championships here. He left this place better than

417
00:20:55.279 --> 00:20:57.519
<v Speaker 2>when he got here. I didn't get the sense that

418
00:20:57.519 --> 00:20:59.759
<v Speaker 2>that's just a coach talking about a guy who used

419
00:20:59.759 --> 00:21:02.400
<v Speaker 2>to play that moved on. I think he loves Brock.

420
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:04.400
<v Speaker 2>I think they think he's really good. But they understood

421
00:21:04.480 --> 00:21:06.720
<v Speaker 2>now with the portal look. He played behind two different

422
00:21:06.759 --> 00:21:11.000
<v Speaker 2>quarterbacks that can win national championships there. He has to

423
00:21:11.039 --> 00:21:13.400
<v Speaker 2>move on if he wants to play. So I think

424
00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:15.079
<v Speaker 2>in a way they could show some mercy. But to

425
00:21:15.119 --> 00:21:17.920
<v Speaker 2>your point, John, this day at age man, I think

426
00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:20.039
<v Speaker 2>style points matter. They can tell us that they don't,

427
00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:20.559
<v Speaker 2>but they do.

428
00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:23.319
<v Speaker 4>And plus, we don't know how good or bad Kentucky's

429
00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:25.039
<v Speaker 4>going to be, and if they end up being a

430
00:21:25.079 --> 00:21:27.480
<v Speaker 4>really bad team, Georgia doesn't want it to look closer

431
00:21:27.480 --> 00:21:28.000
<v Speaker 4>than it should be.

432
00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:29.960
<v Speaker 2>It's a really good point. You don't want to show

433
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:32.200
<v Speaker 2>mercy here. And then you get to the end of

434
00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:35.119
<v Speaker 2>the year and maybe you have a head scratching loss

435
00:21:35.160 --> 00:21:37.160
<v Speaker 2>to somebody that shouldn't that you shouldn't have lost to,

436
00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:39.359
<v Speaker 2>and then they bring in and they only beat Kentucky

437
00:21:39.400 --> 00:21:42.200
<v Speaker 2>by seventeen that's a good point. So what would you

438
00:21:42.240 --> 00:21:44.480
<v Speaker 2>do if you were if the question was asked to

439
00:21:44.519 --> 00:21:47.960
<v Speaker 2>you that was just asked to me. It's minus twenty two.

440
00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:50.720
<v Speaker 2>Would you take the dogs or take in Kentuck or

441
00:21:50.720 --> 00:21:53.599
<v Speaker 2>not Kentucky uga to cover? Yeah? Yeah, I mean, look,

442
00:21:54.960 --> 00:21:58.440
<v Speaker 2>even if Kentucky beat South Carolina, that would probably still

443
00:21:58.440 --> 00:22:01.039
<v Speaker 2>be a line that would be hovering around twenty two points,

444
00:22:01.039 --> 00:22:04.160
<v Speaker 2>and most people would probably still take Georgia. I'm not

445
00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:06.680
<v Speaker 2>expecting Kentucky to come out and like, you know, shock

446
00:22:06.759 --> 00:22:10.359
<v Speaker 2>people and keep this game super close. But like I know,

447
00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:13.480
<v Speaker 2>they have way better personnel than what they look like

448
00:22:13.480 --> 00:22:15.279
<v Speaker 2>against South Carolina. And to be honest with you, that's

449
00:22:15.319 --> 00:22:16.920
<v Speaker 2>what's got to be scary. If you're a Kentucky fan,

450
00:22:17.480 --> 00:22:20.319
<v Speaker 2>you know you have better players in South Carolina, and

451
00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:23.960
<v Speaker 2>yet you look like that. But when Stoops usually is

452
00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:27.759
<v Speaker 2>looked at as far as having no shot to even

453
00:22:27.799 --> 00:22:30.799
<v Speaker 2>keep it close, they never win, but they usually end

454
00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:33.359
<v Speaker 2>up buying, Like Mark Stoops covering here would be so

455
00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Mark Stoops, I think, but I'm not trusting it. I

456
00:22:35.720 --> 00:22:39.240
<v Speaker 2>would take Georgia minus twenty two. Interesting question. I like

457
00:22:39.279 --> 00:22:41.240
<v Speaker 2>when people give me the hypotheticals like that, really get

458
00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:43.720
<v Speaker 2>me thinking upstairs, don't go anywhere. It's Cofee and company.

459
00:22:43.720 --> 00:22:45.400
<v Speaker 2>We are feel about Thornton's right here on Sports Talk

460
00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:50.599
<v Speaker 2>seven ninety So I usually don't start even looking at

461
00:22:50.640 --> 00:22:52.720
<v Speaker 2>what NFL games I want to bet on until I

462
00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:55.200
<v Speaker 2>get to until I get to Sunday, which is probably

463
00:22:55.200 --> 00:22:56.839
<v Speaker 2>why I'm not. You know, I don't even know if

464
00:22:56.880 --> 00:23:00.759
<v Speaker 2>preparation would help me. It can't hurt. But anyways, I'm

465
00:23:00.839 --> 00:23:02.480
<v Speaker 2>now trying to start to get a little bit of

466
00:23:02.519 --> 00:23:04.400
<v Speaker 2>an earlier look at what I want to do when

467
00:23:04.440 --> 00:23:07.000
<v Speaker 2>it comes to NFL Sundays, not just because of you know,

468
00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:08.640
<v Speaker 2>I want to be more prepared, but I really am

469
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:12.160
<v Speaker 2>enjoying getting in on the underdog fantasy action, which I'll

470
00:23:12.160 --> 00:23:14.839
<v Speaker 2>talk a little more about that later, because if you

471
00:23:14.880 --> 00:23:17.880
<v Speaker 2>are somebody that enjoys wagering on sports, but you really

472
00:23:18.039 --> 00:23:21.839
<v Speaker 2>find yourself more interested in the player aspect, like player

473
00:23:21.880 --> 00:23:24.400
<v Speaker 2>totals and whatnot, there's no better place to do it

474
00:23:24.440 --> 00:23:29.079
<v Speaker 2>than underdog fantasy. And I mean again, getting it right

475
00:23:29.319 --> 00:23:31.359
<v Speaker 2>is just like getting it right when you bet a game,

476
00:23:31.400 --> 00:23:35.920
<v Speaker 2>whether it be a total over underspread, money line, whatever.

477
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:38.160
<v Speaker 2>But like, I don't know, I just feel like you're

478
00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:40.960
<v Speaker 2>you're not relying upon as much if you just need

479
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:42.920
<v Speaker 2>one player to go out there and get four touches

480
00:23:43.119 --> 00:23:45.319
<v Speaker 2>four catches whenever the line is set at three and

481
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:49.640
<v Speaker 2>a half. So anyways, the NFL is phenomenal, and the

482
00:23:49.799 --> 00:23:53.599
<v Speaker 2>NFL on the Internet, man, the memes out there are crazy,

483
00:23:53.599 --> 00:23:55.640
<v Speaker 2>and there were some that, you know, I get what

484
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:58.839
<v Speaker 2>the internet is. I'm well aware of, like the scum

485
00:23:58.880 --> 00:24:01.680
<v Speaker 2>that you will find all over the Internet, including Twitter,

486
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:04.000
<v Speaker 2>which I think has become really the breeding ground for

487
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:06.759
<v Speaker 2>scumbags on the Internet. If we're being honest. Twitter's got

488
00:24:06.759 --> 00:24:09.319
<v Speaker 2>its purposes and it's got its value, but man, it's

489
00:24:09.359 --> 00:24:12.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's not in a great place right now.

490
00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:15.480
<v Speaker 2>But nonetheless this one is mean, but it's also funny

491
00:24:15.519 --> 00:24:19.599
<v Speaker 2>to me. Malik Willis is that his name. The quarterback

492
00:24:19.640 --> 00:24:21.839
<v Speaker 2>who played at Liberty was drafted by the Titans and

493
00:24:21.880 --> 00:24:24.759
<v Speaker 2>then a year later they drafted Will Levis and traded

494
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:27.240
<v Speaker 2>Malik Willis to the Packers. He's now starting in place

495
00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:31.319
<v Speaker 2>of Jordan Love. And if you look at just the

496
00:24:31.359 --> 00:24:33.920
<v Speaker 2>picture of the on the bio, like if you go

497
00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:37.000
<v Speaker 2>to the Green Bay Packers website and look at the

498
00:24:37.640 --> 00:24:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Malik Willis page, like his bio, he's got a real

499
00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:44.319
<v Speaker 2>cheesy grin, but also looks kind of like unsure of himself.

500
00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:46.960
<v Speaker 2>And it just it's a meme that says when you

501
00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:52.400
<v Speaker 2>are unexpectedly gonna be relied on at your job, because

502
00:24:52.440 --> 00:24:53.920
<v Speaker 2>it looks like a guy who's like, oh crap, they're

503
00:24:53.920 --> 00:24:56.119
<v Speaker 2>gonna they want me to play quarterback. I'm you know,

504
00:24:56.119 --> 00:24:58.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm just here to try to, you know, And who knows,

505
00:24:58.200 --> 00:24:59.920
<v Speaker 2>maybe he ends up making his debut with the pa

506
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:02.559
<v Speaker 2>Ackers and has success, But like, this is a guy

507
00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:05.640
<v Speaker 2>that in Tennessee never really showed any sign of being

508
00:25:05.640 --> 00:25:08.160
<v Speaker 2>a guy that could be your future franchise quarterback. And

509
00:25:08.519 --> 00:25:11.279
<v Speaker 2>you know, they drafted him in the third round for

510
00:25:11.319 --> 00:25:13.160
<v Speaker 2>some reason. I thought he got drafted a lot earlier.

511
00:25:13.160 --> 00:25:14.960
<v Speaker 2>I think what it was is that at coming out

512
00:25:14.960 --> 00:25:16.799
<v Speaker 2>of Liberty. He was at Auburn for two years and

513
00:25:16.799 --> 00:25:18.519
<v Speaker 2>then went to Liberty and put up some big numbers

514
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:24.519
<v Speaker 2>there playing for playing for who wasn't I can't think

515
00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:26.759
<v Speaker 2>of who it was. Liberty's coach has changed since then,

516
00:25:26.799 --> 00:25:29.000
<v Speaker 2>I believe, because now you've got Jamie Chadwell that's there

517
00:25:29.000 --> 00:25:31.079
<v Speaker 2>at Liberty. But either way, he was supposed to be

518
00:25:31.480 --> 00:25:34.599
<v Speaker 2>a guy that was a top five overall pick at

519
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:36.039
<v Speaker 2>one point. I mean, that was the hype that Malik

520
00:25:36.079 --> 00:25:37.759
<v Speaker 2>Will has had and then of course in Tennessee it

521
00:25:37.839 --> 00:25:39.519
<v Speaker 2>just didn't work out. And now he's in Green Bay

522
00:25:39.559 --> 00:25:42.240
<v Speaker 2>and now he's going to be the guy that they

523
00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:47.000
<v Speaker 2>they need to lead him. But anyways, I'm going to

524
00:25:47.039 --> 00:25:48.960
<v Speaker 2>give you guys what I like, and I don't you know,

525
00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:51.599
<v Speaker 2>I hate even selling this when it comes to I

526
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:53.880
<v Speaker 2>could fake it. Like, in fact, I probably should do

527
00:25:53.960 --> 00:25:55.680
<v Speaker 2>a better job baking it, especially when I'm going to

528
00:25:55.720 --> 00:25:58.039
<v Speaker 2>be talking about what I'm doing with the with the

529
00:25:58.039 --> 00:26:00.680
<v Speaker 2>the player bets on the Underdog Fantasy app. But like

530
00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:03.359
<v Speaker 2>I've been so historically bad at betting on the NFL.

531
00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:06.279
<v Speaker 2>Like when I share with you what I'm gonna do,

532
00:26:06.359 --> 00:26:08.799
<v Speaker 2>I get worried that people might in fact tail me

533
00:26:08.880 --> 00:26:11.000
<v Speaker 2>John because I don't want them losing their heart earned money.

534
00:26:11.039 --> 00:26:12.839
<v Speaker 2>And that's what I do when I bet on the NFL.

535
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:14.079
<v Speaker 2>I lose hard earned money.

536
00:26:14.119 --> 00:26:15.119
<v Speaker 4>Then they come for your head.

537
00:26:15.240 --> 00:26:17.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, although I do have some momentum because I had

538
00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:20.599
<v Speaker 2>I had a three leg parlay that did hit. I

539
00:26:20.640 --> 00:26:22.880
<v Speaker 2>had two results to go my way on Sunday in

540
00:26:22.920 --> 00:26:24.799
<v Speaker 2>the late in the later games, and then I was

541
00:26:24.839 --> 00:26:26.640
<v Speaker 2>waiting for Monday night to happen, and sure enough, the

542
00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Niners came through and delivered. That was nice for me

543
00:26:29.000 --> 00:26:31.400
<v Speaker 2>to get that one. And then last night it didn't

544
00:26:31.440 --> 00:26:33.559
<v Speaker 2>cash a ticket because I parlayed it, but I did

545
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:36.000
<v Speaker 2>trust the Bills as underdogs to win money line and

546
00:26:36.000 --> 00:26:38.400
<v Speaker 2>they won without any troubles. So you know, if anything,

547
00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:39.680
<v Speaker 2>I guess I got some momentum. But we'll talk a

548
00:26:39.720 --> 00:26:42.559
<v Speaker 2>little more about those picks and other college football picks

549
00:26:42.559 --> 00:26:43.880
<v Speaker 2>that we've got before we get out of here. But

550
00:26:43.880 --> 00:26:45.359
<v Speaker 2>I do want to talk to you guys about something

551
00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:48.279
<v Speaker 2>really important, and that is the Jefferson Animal Hospital. Your pets,

552
00:26:48.319 --> 00:26:51.960
<v Speaker 2>they're part of your family, right and anytime you have

553
00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:54.480
<v Speaker 2>an emergency with somebody that's in your family, it's a scary,

554
00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:57.440
<v Speaker 2>scary situation. And if you've never had an emergency with

555
00:26:57.519 --> 00:27:01.200
<v Speaker 2>your pet, then consider yourself fortunate. But at any moment,

556
00:27:01.200 --> 00:27:02.680
<v Speaker 2>it could happen and you might not know what to do.

557
00:27:03.279 --> 00:27:05.440
<v Speaker 2>You might panic. I know I would, But just know

558
00:27:05.519 --> 00:27:07.920
<v Speaker 2>that when it comes to getting your pets treated for

559
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:10.759
<v Speaker 2>an emergency, or just really any treatment when it comes

560
00:27:10.799 --> 00:27:14.400
<v Speaker 2>to a vet, just know that you should rely on

561
00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:16.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean you can and you should rely on Jefferson

562
00:27:16.240 --> 00:27:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Animal Hospital because they've been doing this for a long time.

563
00:27:19.559 --> 00:27:21.920
<v Speaker 2>They've been in business serving the Louisville community for over

564
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:24.599
<v Speaker 2>forty four years. They've been opened twenty four hours a day,

565
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:28.599

566
00:27:28.640 --> 00:27:32.880
<v Speaker 2>including Christmas, since nineteen eighty, so that's any day, any night,

<v Speaker 2>visit Jefferson Vets dot com. They're over there on outer Loop.

577
00:27:57.920 --> 00:27:59.519
<v Speaker 2>They've been there for a long time, as I mentioned,

578
00:27:59.559 --> 00:28:01.319
<v Speaker 2>since night eighty so I'm sure if you've been in

579
00:28:01.359 --> 00:28:03.920
<v Speaker 2>that area, you know exactly where they are and you

580
00:28:03.920 --> 00:28:05.720
<v Speaker 2>don't want to go there, no offense. We love Jefferson

581
00:28:05.720 --> 00:28:07.720
<v Speaker 2>Animal Hospital, but it's great if you know you don't

582
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:09.799
<v Speaker 2>have to go there for an emergency, but you also

583
00:28:09.960 --> 00:28:12.400
<v Speaker 2>emergency aside, you need to get your pets checked on right.

584
00:28:12.440 --> 00:28:15.759
<v Speaker 2>They need to be you know, getting vaccinations, examinations, even

585
00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:18.920
<v Speaker 2>blood work. So if you don't have like a primary

586
00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:20.680
<v Speaker 2>spot where you know you need to go to get

587
00:28:20.680 --> 00:28:23.160
<v Speaker 2>your pet checked on in the case of an emergency

588
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:24.640
<v Speaker 2>or just to get them, you know, to make sure

589
00:28:24.640 --> 00:28:26.880
<v Speaker 2>that they're healthy, you should. You should trust the Jefferson

<v Speaker 2>Animal Hospital on naturally again. Five O two nine hundred

591

<v Speaker 2>pets is their number, or you can visit Jefferson Vets

592
00:28:31.920 --> 00:28:35.680
<v Speaker 2>dot com to get more information on their website. All right,

593
00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:39.559
<v Speaker 2>let's see here, here's what we're gonna do for the

594
00:28:39.680 --> 00:28:43.079
<v Speaker 2>giveaway at five thirty for the Brooks and Done concert tickets.

595
00:28:43.400 --> 00:28:46.640
<v Speaker 2>We are gonna be doing the real band, fake band.

596
00:28:46.680 --> 00:28:48.839
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna give you and get it. Five thirty is

597
00:28:48.839 --> 00:28:50.000
<v Speaker 2>when we're gonna do it. So that's when we will

598
00:28:50.000 --> 00:28:52.359
<v Speaker 2>open up the phone lines and you can try to

599
00:28:52.440 --> 00:28:54.839
<v Speaker 2>be one of the first two to get in because

600
00:28:54.839 --> 00:28:56.920
<v Speaker 2>that's that's how you end up being able to participate.

601
00:28:57.160 --> 00:28:59.519
<v Speaker 2>And we'll give you two different band names. One of

602
00:28:59.519 --> 00:29:02.079
<v Speaker 2>them is a band and the other one is a

603
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:04.000
<v Speaker 2>made up band that does not exist at least yet.

604
00:29:04.559 --> 00:29:06.279
<v Speaker 2>We've been doing this long enough. You think maybe anybody

605
00:29:06.279 --> 00:29:08.720
<v Speaker 2>started a band with one of our names. John, there's

606
00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:09.200
<v Speaker 2>a chance.

607
00:29:09.640 --> 00:29:12.160
<v Speaker 4>What's the one that Elliott always gave out whenever he

608
00:29:12.160 --> 00:29:12.839
<v Speaker 4>would do this year?

609
00:29:12.839 --> 00:29:16.480
<v Speaker 2>No, So, so Elliott has been an Elliott by the way,

610
00:29:16.640 --> 00:29:18.200
<v Speaker 2>he's no longer with us. I mean he's not dead,

611
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:20.880
<v Speaker 2>but he no longer works here. I used to do

612
00:29:20.920 --> 00:29:23.039
<v Speaker 2>that when people would like leave iHeart, I would just

613
00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:24.920
<v Speaker 2>say they're no longer with us, and I realized, oh,

614
00:29:25.000 --> 00:29:27.839
<v Speaker 2>they might think that person's dead. I did that with

615
00:29:27.920 --> 00:29:30.079
<v Speaker 2>Nick the Brick, who only worked here for like a

616
00:29:30.119 --> 00:29:31.720
<v Speaker 2>few months, but he became a good buddy of mine.

617
00:29:31.759 --> 00:29:33.720
<v Speaker 2>But he's not dead. He just left to go do

618
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:36.480
<v Speaker 2>a different career. But anyways, Elliott's in a bunch of

619
00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:39.759
<v Speaker 2>different bands. He has been throughout. I mean, Elliott's a's

620
00:29:39.799 --> 00:29:41.640
<v Speaker 2>he's a musician. He used to produce shows for us

621
00:29:41.640 --> 00:29:44.039
<v Speaker 2>here at iHeart, and he moved on to do something else.

622
00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:47.400
<v Speaker 2>But you know, I think here are his band names.

623
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:50.559
<v Speaker 2>He had one called work Shirt, he had one called

624
00:29:50.599 --> 00:29:54.359
<v Speaker 2>wax Eater, and there was another one I'm blanking on.

625
00:29:54.759 --> 00:29:57.559
<v Speaker 2>So I told him one time, I'm like, hey, man,

626
00:29:57.599 --> 00:30:00.480
<v Speaker 2>you'd be the one that can actually tell me if,

627
00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:02.759
<v Speaker 2>like these are good band names or not, because you

628
00:30:02.839 --> 00:30:04.839
<v Speaker 2>have named all the bands that you've been in and

629
00:30:04.839 --> 00:30:07.799
<v Speaker 2>they're pretty good and you put on music shows and whatnot,

630
00:30:07.839 --> 00:30:10.640
<v Speaker 2>so like you, you, you would be one person I

631
00:30:10.680 --> 00:30:14.680
<v Speaker 2>would in fact take real legitimate feedback from as far

632
00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:16.880
<v Speaker 2>as are my band names trash or are they decent?

633
00:30:17.319 --> 00:30:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Or are they good? And uh he's you know, he

634
00:30:20.079 --> 00:30:22.359
<v Speaker 2>was pretty direct, like, hey, shoot me, shoot shoot it

635
00:30:22.359 --> 00:30:24.279
<v Speaker 2>to me. What do you got? And the first two

636
00:30:24.319 --> 00:30:26.119
<v Speaker 2>I thought were good, but he he didn't like him.

637
00:30:26.880 --> 00:30:30.039
<v Speaker 2>One was Whiffle Balls in Vegas. He didn't like that,

638
00:30:31.200 --> 00:30:33.680
<v Speaker 2>asked waxed and Milwaukee. I think that's good. He said,

639
00:30:33.759 --> 00:30:35.279
<v Speaker 2>nah to it's too much. And I like, what do

640
00:30:35.319 --> 00:30:38.359
<v Speaker 2>you mean too much? Like there's band names that I

641
00:30:38.440 --> 00:30:39.839
<v Speaker 2>can't even say on the radio and he's like, no,

642
00:30:39.880 --> 00:30:41.960
<v Speaker 2>it's just it's just a lot. There's a lot, it's long.

643
00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:44.640
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, okay. So then I gave him this

644
00:30:44.680 --> 00:30:47.039
<v Speaker 2>one and he was like, oh, that that that that's

645
00:30:47.079 --> 00:30:50.359
<v Speaker 2>going to be a band before too long septic circumstance.

646
00:30:51.279 --> 00:30:52.119
<v Speaker 2>That's good, isn't it?

647
00:30:52.119 --> 00:30:54.200
<v Speaker 4>It is it sounds like some alt rock, alt metal,

648
00:30:54.279 --> 00:30:54.759
<v Speaker 4>something like that.

649
00:30:54.759 --> 00:30:56.359
<v Speaker 2>And I said, I worry a little bit about if

650
00:30:56.359 --> 00:30:57.880
<v Speaker 2>you say it fast, like you could get you could

651
00:30:57.920 --> 00:31:00.279
<v Speaker 2>get tongue tied. He's like, oh no, like and he

652
00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:02.200
<v Speaker 2>gave me. He gave me the vision of like if

653
00:31:02.240 --> 00:31:05.640
<v Speaker 2>they're if they're ever a band and they're out there

654
00:31:05.720 --> 00:31:09.160
<v Speaker 2>alt rock and they've got some momentum, and like people

655
00:31:09.279 --> 00:31:11.200
<v Speaker 2>in town are talking about going to the show because

656
00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:13.039
<v Speaker 2>they're coming. They're bringing like we're not at the Yum

657
00:31:13.079 --> 00:31:15.119
<v Speaker 2>Septum Circumstances, not at the Young Center yet, but we

658
00:31:15.200 --> 00:31:18.079
<v Speaker 2>might get the Palace, we might get Zanzibar or something right,

659
00:31:18.359 --> 00:31:20.519
<v Speaker 2>something like that, and more intimate venue. What's that other

660
00:31:20.640 --> 00:31:23.720
<v Speaker 2>venue in Louisville that's been putting on shows forever, Mercury. No,

661
00:31:24.039 --> 00:31:25.839
<v Speaker 2>Mercury is one of them. Maybe we do Mercury though,

662
00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:29.279
<v Speaker 2>What am I thinking of headline towns? But that's another

663
00:31:29.319 --> 00:31:33.000
<v Speaker 2>one they headliners. Yeah, we're at headliners. That's where septum

664
00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:35.880
<v Speaker 2>septic circumstances. And again when I mentioned how it could

665
00:31:35.880 --> 00:31:37.640
<v Speaker 2>get tongue ted, he said, oh no, what people would do,

666
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:40.240
<v Speaker 2>They'd say, hey, you go to the Septic show. And

667
00:31:40.319 --> 00:31:42.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm like Oh dude, I feel like I want to

668
00:31:42.720 --> 00:31:44.680
<v Speaker 2>go to the Septic show now a band that doesn't exist,

669
00:31:44.759 --> 00:31:47.240
<v Speaker 2>because like it just sounds so real. So again, we'll

670
00:31:47.240 --> 00:31:50.799
<v Speaker 2>give you two different band names and you will determine

671
00:31:50.799 --> 00:31:52.519
<v Speaker 2>if they're real or if they're fake, and if you

672
00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:56.359
<v Speaker 2>get it actually, yeah, we'll give you two. You got

673
00:31:56.400 --> 00:31:58.079
<v Speaker 2>to determine which one's real, and if you get it right,

674
00:31:58.119 --> 00:31:59.720
<v Speaker 2>you get a point. And whoever has the most points

675
00:31:59.759 --> 00:32:01.680
<v Speaker 2>when where we finished the contest, you will be winners

676
00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:04.200
<v Speaker 2>of the of the Brooks and Done the Brooks and

677
00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:06.759
<v Speaker 2>Done tickets our last pair of tickets to give away,

678
00:32:06.759 --> 00:32:09.039
<v Speaker 2>at least, I think I think we'll actually probably be

679
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:10.720
<v Speaker 2>able to give away more when we get closer to it,

680
00:32:10.759 --> 00:32:15.359
<v Speaker 2>but it's it's a long way away, all right, real quick,

681
00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:18.720
<v Speaker 2>before we get to our next break. This is something

682
00:32:18.759 --> 00:32:21.319
<v Speaker 2>that has become not really a big story within the NFL,

683
00:32:22.279 --> 00:32:24.319
<v Speaker 2>but it's at least, you know, made its way to

684
00:32:24.359 --> 00:32:27.640
<v Speaker 2>the internet and people are talking about it. The Raiders

685
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:32.680
<v Speaker 2>had a press conference following their season opening loss on Sunday,

686
00:32:33.359 --> 00:32:36.680
<v Speaker 2>and while the media is in the press room waiting

687
00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:42.400
<v Speaker 2>for the coach the quarterback to arrive, you know they're

688
00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:45.880
<v Speaker 2>they're they're chatting amongst themselves. If you've ever like been

689
00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:47.720
<v Speaker 2>to a press conference, or if you've ever been like

690
00:32:47.839 --> 00:32:51.240
<v Speaker 2>listening to a show waiting for the press conference to start,

691
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:54.519
<v Speaker 2>and like we send it there and we're waiting for

692
00:32:54.599 --> 00:32:56.799
<v Speaker 2>somebody to walk up and we can't see it. Like

693
00:32:56.839 --> 00:32:58.680
<v Speaker 2>it's different Now most of the time we just carry

694
00:32:58.680 --> 00:33:00.839
<v Speaker 2>the stream and you can see quite literally what you

695
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:02.759
<v Speaker 2>know where they are. But it did. It used to

696
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:04.000
<v Speaker 2>work that way. We used to have to send people

697
00:33:04.039 --> 00:33:05.839
<v Speaker 2>out there with equipment and they would say, like Will

698
00:33:05.880 --> 00:33:08.039
<v Speaker 2>Clark would say, Hey, we're going live here, and then

699
00:33:08.119 --> 00:33:09.559
<v Speaker 2>I just got to wait for the coach to walk

700
00:33:09.599 --> 00:33:11.160
<v Speaker 2>in and sit down, but I don't know where he is.

701
00:33:11.200 --> 00:33:14.079
<v Speaker 2>So you can hear people around you, right, there's microphones

702
00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:16.960
<v Speaker 2>that are on well sometimes like there's an actual feed

703
00:33:17.440 --> 00:33:19.039
<v Speaker 2>that the team is sending out, which is what we

704
00:33:19.160 --> 00:33:21.359
<v Speaker 2>use now, Like if we want to play a press conference,

705
00:33:21.400 --> 00:33:23.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to pull up the Louisville Fotball Twitter account

706
00:33:23.119 --> 00:33:24.519
<v Speaker 2>and let you hear Jef Brom talk on that because

707
00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:27.640
<v Speaker 2>that's the easiest way to do it. But sometimes they

708
00:33:27.720 --> 00:33:30.559
<v Speaker 2>go live prematurely and there's a hot mic and there's

709
00:33:30.599 --> 00:33:34.359
<v Speaker 2>people talking right and it's not players or coaches. It's

710
00:33:34.400 --> 00:33:37.720
<v Speaker 2>the media hacks that are in there waiting to ask questions,

711
00:33:38.240 --> 00:33:40.680
<v Speaker 2>and they don't know that they're live. They don't know that,

712
00:33:40.799 --> 00:33:43.079
<v Speaker 2>like even if they're talking quietly, there is a hot

713
00:33:43.160 --> 00:33:45.279
<v Speaker 2>live mic that is at the podium and like you

714
00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:47.799
<v Speaker 2>might you talk loud enough, it might pick up what

715
00:33:47.799 --> 00:33:51.319
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna say. So here's what happened. And I bring

716
00:33:51.359 --> 00:33:54.039
<v Speaker 2>this up to ask like who's like, who's at fault

717
00:33:54.079 --> 00:33:56.839
<v Speaker 2>for this? Is anybody at fault? Like should report? The

718
00:33:57.000 --> 00:33:59.519
<v Speaker 2>Raiders reporters were caught on the hot mic at the

719
00:33:59.519 --> 00:34:04.640
<v Speaker 2>press common conference trash talking the team. And I think

720
00:34:04.680 --> 00:34:06.920
<v Speaker 2>this clip has it might not sound great. Let me

721
00:34:06.920 --> 00:34:07.799
<v Speaker 2>see what this sounds like.

722
00:34:09.760 --> 00:34:16.079
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, unless unless Gardner and I'm just gonna get his as.

723
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:20.800
<v Speaker 2>I So that sounded terrible and you might not have

724
00:34:20.800 --> 00:34:22.920
<v Speaker 2>been able to hear what was said. But Gardner's gonna

725
00:34:22.920 --> 00:34:27.159
<v Speaker 2>get his ass kicked, Bob Baltimore. That's that's what was said, uh,

726
00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:30.119
<v Speaker 2>by one of the media guys that is there. And

727
00:34:30.480 --> 00:34:34.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm just curious, like who who? If there's

728
00:34:34.119 --> 00:34:37.239
<v Speaker 2>anybody at fault, it's got to be the Raiders for

729
00:34:37.440 --> 00:34:42.079
<v Speaker 2>sending that out live on their like at their press conference,

730
00:34:43.360 --> 00:34:45.960
<v Speaker 2>not realizing that, like it's gonna pick that up. Like,

731
00:34:46.519 --> 00:34:48.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure the reporter whoever it was that said that,

732
00:34:48.599 --> 00:34:50.320
<v Speaker 2>and I'm sure the raven or the Raiders know who

733
00:34:50.320 --> 00:34:52.239
<v Speaker 2>it was that said that. Like I'm sure he's not

734
00:34:52.360 --> 00:34:55.840
<v Speaker 2>happy because he probably said that to another colleague of

735
00:34:55.880 --> 00:34:58.360
<v Speaker 2>his or one of his peers in the media there

736
00:34:58.360 --> 00:35:02.320
<v Speaker 2>that covers the Raiders. But like, you know, I don't

737
00:35:02.320 --> 00:35:04.159
<v Speaker 2>really know who's to blame here, you know what I mean? John, Like,

738
00:35:04.159 --> 00:35:06.280
<v Speaker 2>if anything, I would blame it on the Raiders. But

739
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:08.960
<v Speaker 2>then again, like you know, maybe they don't care if

740
00:35:09.000 --> 00:35:11.840
<v Speaker 2>that was out there. Gardner Minshew probably is not happy

741
00:35:11.840 --> 00:35:14.320
<v Speaker 2>about it, but like you know, he's in the Yeah,

742
00:35:14.360 --> 00:35:16.199
<v Speaker 2>he's in the NFL. He knows he's going to be criticized.

743
00:35:16.280 --> 00:35:18.840
<v Speaker 2>He's a career journeyman. I don't think anything at this

744
00:35:18.840 --> 00:35:20.400
<v Speaker 2>point in his career, there's not been a team that's

745
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:22.440
<v Speaker 2>been ready to just say he's the guy, right he

746
00:35:22.480 --> 00:35:26.760
<v Speaker 2>won the job in Oakland, or not Oakland, but in Vegas,

747
00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:31.119
<v Speaker 2>because who's the quarterback for Purdue that ended up there?

748
00:35:31.519 --> 00:35:33.440
<v Speaker 2>He didn't win the job. Co Yeah, no, Connor could win.

749
00:35:33.480 --> 00:35:36.079
<v Speaker 2>Could't win the gigs, so that's why Gardner Minshew is there.

750
00:35:36.079 --> 00:35:38.320
<v Speaker 2>But it just got me thinking, and I'm glad somebody

751
00:35:38.320 --> 00:35:40.320
<v Speaker 2>who sent this in on the text line earlier this week, Like,

752
00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:44.079
<v Speaker 2>have I ever worried about being at a press conference,

753
00:35:44.079 --> 00:35:46.000
<v Speaker 2>which I've gone to a press conference in a long

754
00:35:46.039 --> 00:35:48.599
<v Speaker 2>time because I can't usually I'm going live right on

755
00:35:48.599 --> 00:35:51.159
<v Speaker 2>the air here as soon as the game ends. But no,

756
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:53.639
<v Speaker 2>I've never Usually I don't. I'm not one that's just

757
00:35:53.719 --> 00:35:55.679
<v Speaker 2>chitty chatty with people that are there. But I will

758
00:35:55.679 --> 00:36:01.599
<v Speaker 2>say this, nothing crazy, like nothing. I'm gonna try to

759
00:36:01.719 --> 00:36:04.079
<v Speaker 2>say this without sounding like a douche who's like, oh,

760
00:36:04.119 --> 00:36:05.760
<v Speaker 2>if you guys knew what was really going on, because

761
00:36:05.760 --> 00:36:08.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to mislead people. But there are people

762
00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:10.679
<v Speaker 2>who like their their image, their brand, in their writing,

763
00:36:10.840 --> 00:36:13.239
<v Speaker 2>or in their appearance on television, or in their apparent

764
00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:16.159
<v Speaker 2>just you know, online. Like it's not not to say

765
00:36:16.159 --> 00:36:19.599
<v Speaker 2>that they're not legitimate, genuine people, but like they're a

766
00:36:19.599 --> 00:36:21.599
<v Speaker 2>little different when they're not in front of a microphone

767
00:36:21.679 --> 00:36:24.239
<v Speaker 2>or not in front of a camera. And you know,

768
00:36:24.840 --> 00:36:27.639
<v Speaker 2>there's just been some things said about Bobby Petrino in

769
00:36:27.719 --> 00:36:32.320
<v Speaker 2>particular by media members that like if it was picked

770
00:36:32.400 --> 00:36:34.719
<v Speaker 2>up by hot mic and everybody heard it, like we'd

771
00:36:34.719 --> 00:36:36.400
<v Speaker 2>probably laugh because I think everybody would know that it

772
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:38.199
<v Speaker 2>would be true, but it'd be people that you would

773
00:36:38.239 --> 00:36:41.119
<v Speaker 2>never expect, like where did that come from? I didn't

774
00:36:41.119 --> 00:36:43.679
<v Speaker 2>know he had that in him. So anyways, quick break,

775
00:36:43.679 --> 00:36:44.960
<v Speaker 2>we'll come back on the other side, wrap up the

776
00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:47.159
<v Speaker 2>four o'clock hour. It's coffee and company. We are fewl

777
00:36:47.159 --> 00:36:51.679
<v Speaker 2>about Thornton's right here on Sports Talk seven ninety. So

778
00:36:51.800 --> 00:36:55.440
<v Speaker 2>this is not a serious criminal offense, but it's one

779
00:36:55.480 --> 00:36:58.840
<v Speaker 2>of many for Georgia's So obviously they've got Kentucky this weekend.

780
00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:02.039
<v Speaker 2>There's soft more. Defensive back Daniel Harris was arrested in

781
00:37:02.119 --> 00:37:06.199
<v Speaker 2>Athens on Thursday night for reckless driving and for other

782
00:37:06.280 --> 00:37:10.679
<v Speaker 2>misdemeanor charges. That again, reckless driving obviously something you shouldn't

783
00:37:10.679 --> 00:37:15.519
<v Speaker 2>do and you can't do. But the amount of driving

784
00:37:15.800 --> 00:37:19.960
<v Speaker 2>related arrests and charges that have been within the Georgia

785
00:37:20.000 --> 00:37:26.199
<v Speaker 2>football program is crazy. The Atlanta General Constitution has recounted

786
00:37:26.559 --> 00:37:31.519
<v Speaker 2>twenty four different incidents between January twenty twenty three and

787
00:37:31.719 --> 00:37:35.519
<v Speaker 2>July of twenty twenty four, So now add this one.

788
00:37:35.639 --> 00:37:38.599
<v Speaker 2>Just you know, two months later, they have another arrest

789
00:37:38.760 --> 00:37:41.760
<v Speaker 2>and again for the most part, I mean, they've not

790
00:37:41.880 --> 00:37:45.559
<v Speaker 2>been really terrible. But if you remember, there was a

791
00:37:45.639 --> 00:37:52.079
<v Speaker 2>tragic accident that results it in resulted in a death,

792
00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:56.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean in yeah, it was in March, March of

793
00:37:56.360 --> 00:38:00.400
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty three. They ended up they end it up

794
00:38:01.280 --> 00:38:03.760
<v Speaker 2>charging one of the former players for his role in

795
00:38:03.800 --> 00:38:07.880
<v Speaker 2>the January fifteenth crash for street racing and reckless driving.

796
00:38:07.960 --> 00:38:10.639
<v Speaker 2>And of course you know that was I mean, there

797
00:38:10.719 --> 00:38:14.599
<v Speaker 2>was somebody who lost their lives. So there's some people

798
00:38:14.599 --> 00:38:17.440
<v Speaker 2>making the comparison that, like with the amount of arrests

799
00:38:17.440 --> 00:38:21.280
<v Speaker 2>and charges that they've had, that Kirby Smart is turning

800
00:38:21.320 --> 00:38:24.079
<v Speaker 2>into the new version of Urban Meyer when he was

801
00:38:24.119 --> 00:38:26.880
<v Speaker 2>at Florida because of all the criminal issues they had.

802
00:38:26.960 --> 00:38:29.960
<v Speaker 2>But like, and there were some crazy things going on,

803
00:38:30.000 --> 00:38:33.440
<v Speaker 2>which it really is wild that that documentary that Untold

804
00:38:33.440 --> 00:38:35.559
<v Speaker 2>did for Netflix that featured I mean, it was multiple

805
00:38:35.599 --> 00:38:38.559
<v Speaker 2>episodes that featured that era of Florida football under Urban

806
00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:40.639
<v Speaker 2>Meyer when they were phenomenal, and like, they just didn't

807
00:38:40.639 --> 00:38:44.159
<v Speaker 2>bring up all the crazy That's what that's really where

808
00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:46.079
<v Speaker 2>they dropped the ball. I love those series. I'll still

809
00:38:46.119 --> 00:38:47.599
<v Speaker 2>watch them, even though they kind of have turned into

810
00:38:47.599 --> 00:38:51.519
<v Speaker 2>pr pieces. These documentaries. But how are you going to

811
00:38:51.559 --> 00:38:54.880
<v Speaker 2>do a four episode special on urban Meyer and not

812
00:38:55.039 --> 00:38:58.440
<v Speaker 2>bring up you know that there was a murderer who

813
00:38:58.519 --> 00:39:01.480
<v Speaker 2>was the tight end, and that you know Tim Tebow,

814
00:39:01.559 --> 00:39:05.920
<v Speaker 2>the the you know, Jesus reincarnated himself as your quarterback,

815
00:39:05.920 --> 00:39:08.000
<v Speaker 2>and you've got all the like the pouncy twins. I

816
00:39:08.039 --> 00:39:12.360
<v Speaker 2>mean Cam Newton was was was there and got dismissed

817
00:39:12.400 --> 00:39:14.480
<v Speaker 2>because he got caught stealing all laptop had to go

818
00:39:14.559 --> 00:39:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Juco before he ended up at Auburn. Like, there are

819
00:39:16.599 --> 00:39:20.760
<v Speaker 2>countless things you can bring up from that era, like wow,

820
00:39:20.800 --> 00:39:23.880
<v Speaker 2>that guy you know who? You knew that Florida had

821
00:39:23.920 --> 00:39:26.320
<v Speaker 2>all these players that ended up in some legal troubles.

822
00:39:26.360 --> 00:39:30.119
<v Speaker 2>Some of course ended up you know dead, like Aaron Hernandez.

823
00:39:30.639 --> 00:39:34.960
<v Speaker 2>But to see that they were all there together during

824
00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:37.079
<v Speaker 2>a time where Florida was rolling and on top of

825
00:39:37.119 --> 00:39:39.559
<v Speaker 2>the world in football really is crazy. But any any

826
00:39:39.719 --> 00:39:41.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, the Georgia stuff. Again, not to tact like

827
00:39:41.840 --> 00:39:45.760
<v Speaker 2>this is normal. To see this many, this many incidents

828
00:39:47.039 --> 00:39:49.199
<v Speaker 2>from that in that amount of time. It's not normal.

829
00:39:49.400 --> 00:39:51.440
<v Speaker 2>But I think it's a little much to kind of

830
00:39:51.440 --> 00:39:54.559
<v Speaker 2>throw out the comparisons of Florida. But I'm getting some

831
00:39:54.599 --> 00:39:57.039
<v Speaker 2>pushback from from people who claimed and I'm sure it's

832
00:39:57.119 --> 00:39:59.559
<v Speaker 2>Louisville fans just wanting to, you know, potentially cash in

833
00:39:59.599 --> 00:40:01.920
<v Speaker 2>on content getting their ass kicked this weekend. But a

834
00:40:01.920 --> 00:40:04.280
<v Speaker 2>lot of people say that, like their favorite bet this

835
00:40:04.320 --> 00:40:06.679
<v Speaker 2>weekend is Georgia minus twenty two, which the more I

836
00:40:06.679 --> 00:40:08.960
<v Speaker 2>think about it, I kind of get it. But then

837
00:40:09.000 --> 00:40:11.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm also trying to think, Okay, well, like this is

838
00:40:11.599 --> 00:40:15.880
<v Speaker 2>where the books do well because they're thinking big pick.

839
00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:18.320
<v Speaker 2>Now again they're wrong as well, Like they're not perfect,

840
00:40:18.320 --> 00:40:23.159
<v Speaker 2>nobody is. But like if Kentucky lost this game by seventeen,

841
00:40:24.000 --> 00:40:26.559
<v Speaker 2>but yet they were down twenty four ish for a

842
00:40:26.599 --> 00:40:28.519
<v Speaker 2>good chunk of it, but yet the nd the final

843
00:40:28.559 --> 00:40:31.719
<v Speaker 2>score was seventeen. That really isn't a crazy result. But

844
00:40:31.760 --> 00:40:34.199
<v Speaker 2>because of the recency of what's happened where they get

845
00:40:34.320 --> 00:40:37.519
<v Speaker 2>killed by South Carolina, who nobody really thinks is good,

846
00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:41.840
<v Speaker 2>and Georgia is right now looking like not only the

847
00:40:41.840 --> 00:40:43.519
<v Speaker 2>best team in the country, they look like they may

848
00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:46.159
<v Speaker 2>be on their own planet. It's like Georgia and then

849
00:40:46.159 --> 00:40:48.840
<v Speaker 2>everybody else. George's only lost to Alabama in the last

850
00:40:48.880 --> 00:40:51.800
<v Speaker 2>four years. Guys, I mean, let's keep that in mind.

851
00:40:52.440 --> 00:40:55.760
<v Speaker 2>So again, I'm not touching that game. But the reason

852
00:40:55.800 --> 00:40:58.320
<v Speaker 2>that came up is that we had an interesting hypothetical

853
00:40:58.400 --> 00:41:00.000
<v Speaker 2>question on the text line from somebody who said, Nick,

854
00:41:00.039 --> 00:41:02.000
<v Speaker 2>if you could only you can only been on one

855
00:41:02.039 --> 00:41:04.280
<v Speaker 2>game this weekend, and you had to put everything that's

856
00:41:04.320 --> 00:41:06.199
<v Speaker 2>in the account on the Kentucky game. What do you do?

857
00:41:06.239 --> 00:41:08.360
<v Speaker 2>And you take in Kentucky minus twenty two or Georgia

858
00:41:08.760 --> 00:41:10.960
<v Speaker 2>or Kentucky plus twenty two or Georgia minus twenty two.

859
00:41:11.000 --> 00:41:13.639
<v Speaker 2>And I would take Georgia minus twenty two, but I'm

860
00:41:13.679 --> 00:41:15.119
<v Speaker 2>still not touching it. I think the best bet in

861
00:41:15.119 --> 00:41:17.480
<v Speaker 2>that game is the team total for Georgia over thirty

862
00:41:17.480 --> 00:41:19.800
<v Speaker 2>four and a half. And I'm tailing our man Brian

863
00:41:19.920 --> 00:41:22.559
<v Speaker 2>Edwards from Vegas Insider on that pick. All right, we've

864
00:41:22.559 --> 00:41:23.920
<v Speaker 2>got another hour to go. We got a lot of

865
00:41:23.960 --> 00:41:26.760
<v Speaker 2>time to talk picks, talk about this upcoming weekend give away,

866
00:41:26.800 --> 00:41:29.119
<v Speaker 2>some tickets to Brooks and done. So we'll finish strong

867
00:41:29.159 --> 00:41:30.960
<v Speaker 2>here five o'clock on a Friday. That's next right here

868
00:41:31.000 --> 00:41:32.119
<v Speaker 2>on Sports Talk seven ninety
