00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,679
Matt Thomas Show with Ross here on Sports Talk seven

5
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:27,120
ninety where today four more hours of Texans preview because

6
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,359
no one else is doing in the marketplace. I'm really

7
00:00:29,359 --> 00:00:32,039
frankly ashamed of our in our market because you got

8
00:00:32,039 --> 00:00:34,119
a Texans team in the Division A round of the playoffs,

9
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:37,600
and yet there is so much conversation about buying La

10
00:00:37,679 --> 00:00:41,719
Olympic tickets right now. It's just crazy. Ross, Thank god,

11
00:00:41,759 --> 00:00:44,439
we're here for you. We're here to cuss and to

12
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,520
discuss the Texans game against the Patriots. Yeah. A lot

13
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,479
of World Cup talk firing up, I think too, a

14
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,759
lot of the World Cup. There's been a little conversation

15
00:00:51,799 --> 00:00:53,880
about the college a lot of conversations about the college

16
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,000
football platform, which no one in Houston cares about. I

17
00:00:57,039 --> 00:00:59,799
mean the final tonight Monday. Okay, I knew that. Yes,

18
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:04,799
I was testing you. No, okay, whatever. You name one

19
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:09,519
Indiana player not named Fernando Mendozo. Yes, it's that that

20
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,879
defensive end that's really good. Mm perfect. I would say

21
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,719
the exact same thing, is it even Fernando Fernando Mendoza,

22
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,480
the Heisman Trophy winner Man Cordy yesterday when that Oregon quarterbacks,

23
00:01:22,519 --> 00:01:25,719
Like I'm staying it's like, man, the big news. I'm like, yeah,

24
00:01:25,799 --> 00:01:29,799
he came in here. He was like I was programming,

25
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,200
k got shot. Yeah, he was like did you guys?

26
00:01:33,079 --> 00:01:34,239
Speaker 3: Do you guys hear the news?

27
00:01:35,359 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 2: Tybar? Can you believe it?

28
00:01:38,879 --> 00:01:41,879
Speaker 1: Or like what I will give credit? And I was

29
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,920
like the the Longhorned, the Longhorn wide receiver. Oh that's

30
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:50,920
DeAndre More. Yeah. College football fan loses its mind over everything, yes,

31
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,560
like I lose my mind over the universe. Oh god?

32
00:01:54,599 --> 00:01:57,400
Oh lord? Was that was that a drop? That was

33
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:02,799
cal Thompson locked on something? Goofy, No, he's unfiltered or whatever.

34
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,760
He's there. They got beef, they got rivals. Do they

35
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,560
have a fight. I think I think that's kind of

36
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:13,719
like an unspoken like rivalry. Yeah, like they're they're definitely

37
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,800
foils for each other. I mean they're they're competing SEC podcasts.

38
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,319
It's one of those things like yeah, yeah, you're doing great, sure,

39
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,000
why not? Yeah? Okay, so myt is like Kobe Bryant,

40
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,719
Lebron James, you know, but they're not calling each other out,

41
00:02:26,719 --> 00:02:28,960
they're not fist fighting, but there's a little something there.

42
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,039
It's not like the Anchorman news teams meeting in the

43
00:02:31,039 --> 00:02:33,719
middle of the town square. Yeah, there's exactly. They're not

44
00:02:33,759 --> 00:02:36,360
throwing hand grenades and tridents, but there's like unspoken tention.

45
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:39,719
Where's that going with this? Oh?

46
00:02:39,759 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 4: Oh?

47
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,039
Speaker 1: When the University of Houston does something, it's very important

48
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,199
to me. When the University of Texas does something like

49
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:51,560
went over Vanderbilt yesterday, I'll not discussed. Don't don't watch.

50
00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:55,680
I know for I'm fighting horns. What one at Alabama

51
00:02:55,719 --> 00:03:00,560
on Saturday's beat Vanderbilt on Wednesday? It's too one win.

52
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,919
Let's go also have a win over Rider? What and

53
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:08,039
fairly Dickinson? Are those teams any good? Are great? Shamanad

54
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,240
they be okay? When the University of Houston does well,

55
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,919
University Texas does well. We love our respective. If there's

56
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,879
like a game on, I'll watch it like you're talking

57
00:03:17,879 --> 00:03:20,560
about SEC. No, I'm just in general, but I mean

58
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,039
Homeboys there, Cole and Gord. They lose their damn mind.

59
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,479
Oh my god. The linebacker from South Carolina is leaving

60
00:03:27,479 --> 00:03:29,840
to go to the draft. What is he thinking. That's great, man,

61
00:03:29,879 --> 00:03:33,840
they're passionate about it, about it. Yeah, that's they're They're

62
00:03:33,879 --> 00:03:36,879
way more passionate. College football fans are more passionate about

63
00:03:36,879 --> 00:03:39,800
their sports than member any other group. Congratulations, because look,

64
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,719
here's the reality of this. When the Astros suck, y'all

65
00:03:41,719 --> 00:03:44,400
didn't give two blanks. When the Rockets suck, you didn't

66
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,879
give two blanks. When the Texans sucked, you made fun

67
00:03:46,919 --> 00:03:50,560
of Cow for five years, We're still making fun of Cow.

68
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,960
That's true. Does a Texan how about this one for

69
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,039
a ridiculous tease? Does a Texans win help them get

70
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,199
a new facility? I don't know exactly if it would,

71
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,439
but it wouldn't hurt. Oh, it certainly wouldn't hurt. I

72
00:04:05,479 --> 00:04:08,719
just don't know if you attached direct victories to how

73
00:04:08,879 --> 00:04:10,560
tax money is being spent. I don't know what the

74
00:04:10,639 --> 00:04:14,719
political pulses in Houston, Texas field. Okay, I haven't checked

75
00:04:14,759 --> 00:04:19,040
the exit polls or the any polls. Are there any

76
00:04:19,079 --> 00:04:21,079
polls out there? I don't know. We could do it one.

77
00:04:21,079 --> 00:04:22,439
I bet you they're doing I bet you they're doing

78
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,920
their own kind of polling. Oh, let me tell you

79
00:04:25,199 --> 00:04:28,800
they are. They're not stupid. They're going to and then

80
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,879
they hired a president a year ago that was has experienced,

81
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,120
so he not only knows about opening them, but he

82
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,800
also knows when to open the press conference with, Hey,

83
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,160
we really need a new facility. Yes, And for those

84
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,560
of you there's a generation out of you out there

85
00:04:44,079 --> 00:04:46,759
and our younger audience that doesn't know what that's like.

86
00:04:47,959 --> 00:04:51,360
I lived it for five years in Houston before. Like

87
00:04:51,439 --> 00:04:54,959
I want to say, ninety three to two thousand was

88
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,319
nothing but that. I wouldn't say nothing but it, but

89
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,399
it was a large part of the show. Because the

90
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,279
Rockets got the arena, didn't pass the first time, they

91
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,959
got it a second time around, the Astros had to

92
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,199
wait and basically had to think about going elsewhere. The

93
00:05:08,199 --> 00:05:10,959
Texans or the Orders did move when we didn't give him,

94
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,920
didn't give Bud his stadium. So, and this will be

95
00:05:13,959 --> 00:05:17,120
your first guar on to that. H I ain't worried

96
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,560
about it. I wouldn't wory about it either. It's not

97
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,040
gonna but it will be much more of your conversation.

98
00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:22,560
Never thought it would be to leave. I think you

99
00:05:22,639 --> 00:05:25,439
keep bringing it up in your right where they're not no, no, no,

100
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,160
the NFL istan leave it's just gonna be your question.

101
00:05:27,879 --> 00:05:30,439
What they're going to refurbish energy or they're going to

102
00:05:30,439 --> 00:05:32,480
build a new stadium. My guess would be outside of

103
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:38,120
Harris County like Chicago Bears, Geary, Indiana. How weird is that? Yeah?

104
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,480
Gary is not a good area.

105
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 2: Ooh.

106
00:05:41,639 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: In Texans, let's go could be the Clear Lake Texans

107
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:47,680
could be? Is there a plot of land? I don't

108
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,680
even go south? The Fullsher Texans a little too far,

109
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,959
the Stafford Texans, the new Waverley Texans. There, the cut

110
00:05:56,959 --> 00:06:03,160
and Shoot Texans. That's funny. Like Jacksonville they're getting a

111
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:05,720
new Uh, their new stadium is gonna be I guess

112
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,279
either rebuilt again or a new one. They're gonna play

113
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,800
a year with half the stadium not working. I mean

114
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,800
they're gonna dramatically reduce the facility of the capacity, and

115
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,560
then they're gonna go to Orlando for a year. Which

116
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:24,519
team the Jacksonville Jaguars. Really? Yeah, that wasn't that weird? Huh?

117
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,120
They finally took the tarps off their regular stadium. They

118
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,240
actual had a full crowd last week and then they

119
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,439
went off. They weren't rewarded with anything. They went home

120
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:36,720
sad Jaguars fan is a saddust fan in history because

121
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,800
there's no other professional teams in your city. That's true.

122
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,480
You when you are a one horse town, you are

123
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,839
gonna get one the town. And well this horse is

124
00:06:44,879 --> 00:06:47,759
pretty beat up. Think about this. Arizona's gone to super Bowl,

125
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,759
the Saints have gone to the Super Bowl, and one

126
00:06:49,879 --> 00:06:53,439
one who lines have never been, Lions have never been.

127
00:06:53,759 --> 00:06:56,319
But there's other sports teams in there. I mean, yeah, well,

128
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,240
I guess the Pistons. Hey, we'll see the Pistons next seek.

129
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,639
As a matter of fact, pizza, pizza. Let's go great

130
00:07:02,759 --> 00:07:05,759
media dining. I heard Lord, Lord second best media dining

131
00:07:05,759 --> 00:07:08,600
in the league. All right, I said you were keeping

132
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,839
track of it. I wasn't. Okay, So here's what I

133
00:07:10,839 --> 00:07:14,399
got going for today. Since again we're the only show

134
00:07:14,439 --> 00:07:16,680
in town talking Texans preview, we'll continue to go over

135
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:21,000
some elements. We will continue to give you our regular

136
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,639
Thursday feature, which is I just don't get it at

137
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,639
eleven thirty. We're also going to do something that Instagram

138
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,959
has been doing and I got caught up to speed

139
00:07:27,959 --> 00:07:29,680
with this today is a great friend of mine sent

140
00:07:29,759 --> 00:07:32,240
me on Instagram. You know when you put a bunch

141
00:07:32,279 --> 00:07:33,879
of pictures in one area. What do they call those?

142
00:07:35,759 --> 00:07:38,079
Not a landscape? What is it called? Because I did

143
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:42,279
one today, it's a layout? Okay. And I was in

144
00:07:42,279 --> 00:07:46,519
a picture of hers from twenty sixteen. Okay, everybody on

145
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,240
Instagram and social media is going back to twenty sixteen

146
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,639
today for some Okay, that's great. So I thought we'd

147
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,639
do that a little bit. Sure. What was it like?

148
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,480
And I kept looking for photos of you and I

149
00:07:58,519 --> 00:08:01,639
from twenty sixteen? There was nothing there. Okay, I can

150
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,439
maybe find some. It'd be cool if you did. I

151
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,399
went at Facebook. I didn't. I don't know. Can can

152
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,319
Twitter go? We had short hair and no beer? Can

153
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,519
Twitter send me back to twenty sixteen? I mean I have,

154
00:08:11,279 --> 00:08:13,120
but I can have to scroll like twenty thousand tweets?

155
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:13,439
Speaker 5: What I not?

156
00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:15,519
Speaker 1: You can go? You can go look for tweets from

157
00:08:15,519 --> 00:08:18,279
a specific date. Okay, leave, all right? Well we can

158
00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:20,000
do that because I want to. You're going to be

159
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,639
astonished at how the sports landscape was in Houston in

160
00:08:22,639 --> 00:08:25,120
twenty sixteen. Remember in twenty sixteen, Rossie, we did not

161
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:31,800
have two World championships. We had a young James Harden

162
00:08:32,159 --> 00:08:35,360
that was the the astros were struggling after the big

163
00:08:35,399 --> 00:08:38,399
twenty fifteen wild Cards. And I want to also say, Rossie,

164
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,120
did we not have brock oswater running the Texans? Is

165
00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:46,840
that twenty sixteen? Uh? I'm trying. I have some photos

166
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,559
from twenty sixteen in my phone. Okay, and even with

167
00:08:49,639 --> 00:08:54,879
you and me? No? No, well I got some barbecue.

168
00:08:55,759 --> 00:08:59,399
I mean, barbecue is still good back then. Were the

169
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,600
lines as long in twenty sixteen as they were? It's

170
00:09:01,639 --> 00:09:04,320
just from killing's good for you? Oh, I have my

171
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,000
when I went to when I went as Pablo Escobars Halloween,

172
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,679
I have my mustache. Okay, should I tweet that out? Yeah,

173
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,279
there's zero percent chance on tweeting I did I Did

174
00:09:12,279 --> 00:09:15,799
you see my my collage? Or Jonathan? Well, it's not.

175
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,879
This camera and his cameras frozen. Frozen it again. Imagine

176
00:09:18,879 --> 00:09:21,879
that he not moving. No, he's blinking. Oh there he is. Okay, good,

177
00:09:21,919 --> 00:09:25,639
He's really alive. He's just locked in. Look at him now.

178
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,879
His eyes aren't moving there. Oh no, he is moving.

179
00:09:27,919 --> 00:09:29,919
See for those who don't know, Jonathan's in a different

180
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,240
studio and we can't see him unless our camera's working,

181
00:09:32,279 --> 00:09:34,200
and our cameras only work about forty percent of the time,

182
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:39,000
all the time. Okay, it's true, but yeah, photos of

183
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,000
me in twenty sixteen. I think I was at two

184
00:09:41,039 --> 00:09:43,960
hundred and ten pounds. I think I want to say

185
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,360
give or take, okay, and I'm one now I'm now

186
00:09:47,399 --> 00:09:49,159
at one eighty eight, which is fine.

187
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:50,399
Speaker 6: Uh.

188
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a little worried about you. You're withering away. No,

189
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:54,919
I you know I do a game way on the road.

190
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,480
I mean I really game. I'm role scared now you

191
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,440
shouldn't be. We're fine. Uh okay. So that on the

192
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,559
agenda today, we'll talk a little bit bout twenty sixteen.

193
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,919
We'll also get into what's going on in twenty twenty

194
00:10:04,919 --> 00:10:06,320
six when the Textans are going to go to New

195
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,759
England on Sunday. And have you now my first blush

196
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,159
guests on this team on Tuesday was I had it

197
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,120
fifty one forty nine in my mind, favoring the Texans

198
00:10:17,159 --> 00:10:20,000
over the Patriots. Oh, this is when I went to Columbia. Sorry,

199
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,279
I'm looking at pictures twenty sixteen. Do you want to

200
00:10:24,399 --> 00:10:26,159
take a break so you can look at some horror? Yeah,

201
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,519
go ahead. Rossica looked through his personal photos. The one

202
00:10:29,519 --> 00:10:31,120
who brought it up. Yeah, but I didn't ask you

203
00:10:31,159 --> 00:10:34,240
to look through photos during the show. You kind of did.

204
00:10:34,799 --> 00:10:36,879
I did. I. I said look for stuff for you

205
00:10:36,919 --> 00:10:39,639
and me. Yeah, that's true. It's you. I'm sorry you're

206
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,320
not involved. So that was your sixth of the show. Okay,

207
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,200
were we in the we're in the mornings during the

208
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,720
twenty sixteen maybe, yeah, I don't know what figure in

209
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,320
dark days. They weren't dark. It just was too literally

210
00:10:49,399 --> 00:10:50,519
dark and it was literally dark.

211
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:50,759
Speaker 7: Yeah.

212
00:10:50,799 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll say this, love your morning host, yes, whomever

213
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,559
it is. If you choose a morning show, just love

214
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,000
on it because those you just you don't get an

215
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,919
normal life. Not easy. I mean, especially if you're a

216
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:08,039
sports fan, because you can DVR and if you want to,

217
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,480
but more times than not, you don't want a DVR.

218
00:11:10,519 --> 00:11:11,960
You want to know. You want to go to bed

219
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,440
knowing that a particular game ended. Now tonight, it's a

220
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,759
good night because the Rockets do play at six thirty

221
00:11:18,879 --> 00:11:22,720
against beautiful Oklahoma City Thundery. Wow. Dan Matthews will be

222
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,000
on the postgame show. Really look at him putting the

223
00:11:25,039 --> 00:11:27,480
hours in. Well, I did Sunday and Tuesday, I'm doing Friday.

224
00:11:27,519 --> 00:11:29,639
So oh no, tomorrow night. It's a little different. Yeah,

225
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,039
we had Tim and that bad boy up to I

226
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,000
believe eleven thirty PM. Correct, it's take thirty. But you

227
00:11:34,039 --> 00:11:36,480
get our drift. But would you see what Kevin Durant

228
00:11:36,519 --> 00:11:38,679
said that we were a second half town, second quarter town.

229
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,759
It's on Twitter? Oh really, is he wrong? No, he's

230
00:11:42,759 --> 00:11:47,480
not wrong. Okay, this is an indictment against anybody except

231
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:48,840
the people that go to the arena. I mean, you know,

232
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,840
not indictment against the city Houston. Just a rocket fan

233
00:11:51,879 --> 00:11:54,159
shows up late. A little bit of an indictment. Well,

234
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,120
I mean it's indictment to eighteen thousand people and that's

235
00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:01,240
a six million Oh look, uh no, never mind, all right,

236
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,720
Broster going to look through his photo album those pictures

237
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,600
with me and l twove in twenty sixteen. There was

238
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,440
always one to me a George Springer and aj Hinch. Okay,

239
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:09,720
I'm not worried about that. I'm talking about me and

240
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,960
al Twove. Oh that's fine. And Michael Manner, you put

241
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,799

242
00:12:16,799 --> 00:12:19,200

243
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,200
U right now? Miami versus A and m first round

244
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,480
playoff game on hundred thousand people in Calefield. How'd that

245
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:31,120
turn out? Aggie? My poor son went to bonfire, went

246
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,399
clicked on this on accident. Let me find something else today.

247
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,240
Ain't m even scoring? And they had a field goal

248
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,080
in the game right now? They scored, Man, they scored.

249
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,279
They can get shut out. Congratulations by Miami team. By

250
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,000
the way, Notre Dame is Notre Dame has be pretty

251
00:12:44,039 --> 00:12:47,840
quiet during all this Miami run. Have you heard that? Uh,

252
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,639
Marcus Freeman's been talking about how great Notre Dame is. Yeah,

253
00:12:50,639 --> 00:12:53,159
and he's like, I commend my kids for not wanting

254
00:12:53,159 --> 00:12:55,759
to go to the Pop Tards Bowl. Would be the

255
00:12:55,799 --> 00:12:58,440
best bowl not named to see bowl. Right, it's good

256
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,000
the most. I got a ton of ratings even without

257
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,840
another Dame. Yeah, it's funny. Seven one three two one

258
00:13:03,919 --> 00:13:06,360
two five seven ninety seven one three two one two

259
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,600
five seven nine zero. We've got more on the Texas

260
00:13:09,639 --> 00:13:11,320
to get too. We'll let you hear of what's going

261
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,960
on in the locker room. We'll also get you something

262
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,360
ready for the Rockets and the thunder. It's a time

263
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:20,000
for revenge. After Opening night's double overtime loss ten to fourteen,

264
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:25,720
Sports Talk seven ninety all right, So trying to figure

265
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,840
out all the little intangibles about the tensions and the

266
00:13:28,879 --> 00:13:32,799
Patriots coming up on Sunday, Bros. Says to me, Hey,

267
00:13:32,799 --> 00:13:35,039
there's a chance to snow in Foxborough. So I went

268
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:40,559
to the Weather Channel forecast Sunday during the day, mostly

269
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:47,399
cloudy with snow flurries and snow showers, especially in the afternoon. Yeah,

270
00:13:47,519 --> 00:13:52,960
I uh, I follow. There's a fantasy website. I follow

271
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,159
Rodo Grinder's chief meteorologist, and he's always very good on

272
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,600
that stuff, just in for football purposes and how it

273
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:02,000
impacts football games. So yes, he said the same thing.

274
00:14:02,039 --> 00:14:04,840
Snow flurry or even snow showers wouldn't shock me. I'm

275
00:14:04,879 --> 00:14:08,440
not expecting impactful amounts of snow. Winds stay fairly light,

276
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:12,279
and that's the most important thing. Snow cold whatever, that's fine.

277
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,320
When there's a ton of wind, that's when the game

278
00:14:14,399 --> 00:14:16,919
really starts to get affected. So under ten miles an

279
00:14:16,919 --> 00:14:20,240
hour sustained, so not a whole lot. So he says,

280
00:14:20,279 --> 00:14:22,039
all in all, it might not be perfect weather, but

281
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,279
it's not good enough to not cause any it's good

282
00:14:25,399 --> 00:14:30,360
enough to not cause major issues. I don't care how many,

283
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,600
how often the Patriots practice in it. Bad weather is bad,

284
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,399
I mean less than idea. Weather is harmful for both sides.

285
00:14:38,399 --> 00:14:40,120
There have been very few teams that I've watched in

286
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,279
my life now. The only time I've ever seen teams

287
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,840
really embrace it is when it gets ridiculously collect them.

288
00:14:45,879 --> 00:14:48,039
You know, the Miami Dolphins have never haven't won a

289
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,879
game in decades when temperatures under forty degrees. I think

290
00:14:51,919 --> 00:14:57,399
it's always been discussed. I know that if you are

291
00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,200
like there was a game that I when I was

292
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,240
living in Minnesota when Green Bay played for the NFC

293
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,399
Championship where it was like was the Giants Packers when

294
00:15:04,399 --> 00:15:06,559
it was like minus ten green Bay or something crazy

295
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,480
like that. I mean, I don't want to make something up,

296
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,440
but I felt like there was a year that recently, No,

297
00:15:10,559 --> 00:15:11,960
this is when I was living in Minnesota. This has

298
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,759
had to go about that one. There was the Chiefs.

299
00:15:14,799 --> 00:15:19,200
One was really bad recently, remember people got frostbite. Yes,

300
00:15:20,159 --> 00:15:22,840
the last couple of years. Sometime now. I'm not not

301
00:15:22,919 --> 00:15:25,080
that I'm not worry about the fans, but the players

302
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,759
are going to be properly. They're gonna have heaters, they're

303
00:15:28,759 --> 00:15:31,679
gonna have these those full length coats. One. I mean

304
00:15:31,919 --> 00:15:34,840
they're gonna be little helmet heaters. The equipment staff can

305
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,320
be ready. Jalen Petriet's gonna love his little beanie cap

306
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,200
that he's He's gonna have extra protection, yeah, extra patting.

307
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:44,080
His head will be warm. But uh, the only thing

308
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,519
to me would be if it's so ridiculously cold that

309
00:15:47,559 --> 00:15:49,840
you can't keep your mind thinking on the game, that

310
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:51,879
then that would make a factor. Thirty five degrees for

311
00:15:51,919 --> 00:15:54,080
the Texans. They've been they were in Pittsburgh last week,

312
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,840
they were in Kansas City last month. Steelers fans say

313
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,840
they're gonna get frozen out. Where are those Stealer fans?

314
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,080
I mentioned it's like you're calling them out and they're

315
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,279
not listening. But that's okay. May I tweet hey, Steeler Nation,

316
00:16:08,399 --> 00:16:10,519
your guy Ross is waiting for you to respond to

317
00:16:10,639 --> 00:16:13,799
last week. No, I quote tweeted myself and so I

318
00:16:13,799 --> 00:16:18,480
said something. So you get responses when when they're they're

319
00:16:18,519 --> 00:16:20,840
they're in morning, they lost their coach, their team sucks,

320
00:16:20,879 --> 00:16:24,120
they need a quarterback. Yeah, but they should be happy

321
00:16:24,679 --> 00:16:28,120
they're over there booing tom They're chanting fire fire Mike

322
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:33,679
Tomlin and booing them. Where's the Steeler delegation in Houston.

323
00:16:33,679 --> 00:16:36,039
They're Steeler fans every time they come here. There's thousands

324
00:16:36,039 --> 00:16:38,000
of them in the stadium. They're in every sitting in

325
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,600
this country. Can we reach out to the Steeler Fan

326
00:16:40,679 --> 00:16:45,559
Club Houston chapter if you actually do that? No, why

327
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,639
you want to pour salt in our wounds? Because, like

328
00:16:47,639 --> 00:16:51,399
I said, they might be happy. Okay, all right, because

329
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,600
a lot of Steeler fans hate Mike Tomlin. But it

330
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,320
feels like to me, the people that were attacking you

331
00:16:55,919 --> 00:16:59,240
found you on for you. Tab he hadn't exactly I

332
00:16:59,279 --> 00:17:01,519
got it somehow, I got the Pittsburgh for you, and

333
00:17:01,559 --> 00:17:04,720
that's when that's when the anger really ram ratcheted up. Thanks,

334
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,920
thanks Elon. But you know what I do now, and

335
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,480
I've told just before, and maybe it's to my detriment.

336
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,799
When an out of town person attacks me, I go

337
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,200
back at them tenfold. Oh really, I mute him and

338
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:21,920
move on. That's five smarter. I Uh. But I just

339
00:17:22,039 --> 00:17:24,640
I wonder what percentage of Steelers fans are happy that

340
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,880
Mike Tomlin is gone, because there were some and they

341
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,920
were he was getting mooed and they were chanting fire

342
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,319
Meg Mike Tomlin at multiple times in the season, which

343
00:17:32,319 --> 00:17:36,200
Aaron Rodgers called them out for and said it was ridiculous. No,

344
00:17:36,319 --> 00:17:39,200
I know, I understand that. No, you're you're not going

345
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:43,799
to appreciate Mike until he's gone. Oh yeah, especially you're

346
00:17:43,839 --> 00:17:45,759
already on the back foot on this coaching search. Now

347
00:17:45,759 --> 00:17:48,319
there's only been one higher now, right, John Harbaugh, has

348
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,000
that done? I think so pretty close.

349
00:17:50,039 --> 00:17:50,160
Speaker 5: Sun.

350
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,079
Speaker 1: Sorry, it sounds like it's gonna happen. Yeah, so the

351
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,000
next dominoes will fall, but you're late in the game. Well,

352
00:17:56,039 --> 00:17:58,519
the reality is you're gonna go get a coordinator. If

353
00:17:58,559 --> 00:18:01,480
you are going for the number one agent, John Harball,

354
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,440
you're probably way too late on that, But everybody else

355
00:18:03,519 --> 00:18:05,759
is gonna be probably frankly a coordinator somewhere. I would

356
00:18:05,759 --> 00:18:09,319
get the brightest offensive, innovative offensive mine you can find

357
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,319
and get that guy. I would, Yeah, because Pittsburgh needs that.

358
00:18:14,599 --> 00:18:17,160
I mean, I don't. You can't create a prolific offense overnight.

359
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,519
But if you have an offensive mining coach that understands

360
00:18:19,519 --> 00:18:21,880
that goes to tell's the general manager. Hey, was it?

361
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:26,000
What's the gap game in the Pittsburgh GM. I can't

362
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:31,559
remember cons Cohn, isn't it of some sort. See that's

363
00:18:31,599 --> 00:18:34,440
what I was trying to avoid. Yeah, Omar khn Omar,

364
00:18:34,519 --> 00:18:36,799
I see I got happened, right, Cohn of some sort. Yeah,

365
00:18:36,799 --> 00:18:40,160
I was in Omar's sort. I didn't say Omar. If

366
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,640
somebody Omar, I said, mister Kahan. So I actually Smar

367
00:18:42,759 --> 00:18:46,160
coming Omar Khan. If you go, if you go hire

368
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,640
the coach, well, first we're gonna Omar. Cohn's making the

369
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,680
hire with obviously the Rudy's blessing on this, but you're

370
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,000
gonna want to align with what the Pittsburgh Sailers want

371
00:18:54,039 --> 00:18:55,440
to do. And I think if you're the Pittsburgh Sewers,

372
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,160
this is the greatest opportunity for you to kind of

373
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,680
tell Aaron Rodgers thank you very much for your services.

374
00:19:00,839 --> 00:19:03,000
And I don't know if you go after free agents

375
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,799
and quarterback train the door hit you on the way

376
00:19:05,799 --> 00:19:08,880
to your darkness retreat. Yeah, those darkness retreats didn't turn

377
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,519
out to be so well for them, did they. Maybe

378
00:19:10,519 --> 00:19:12,279
it's good for him. Actually, I think I would do

379
00:19:12,319 --> 00:19:14,559
something like that. I'm thinking about doing something like that.

380
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,000
You mean you'd go into a dark hair room for

381
00:19:19,279 --> 00:19:23,519
multiple days, no phone, nothing, Huh? Absolutely? How do he

382
00:19:23,559 --> 00:19:25,440
get fined. When I go camping and I go to

383
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,480
the woods, I stay off my phone. That's nice and

384
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,240
I love it. It is a great way to refresh

385
00:19:31,279 --> 00:19:36,880
your mind. Uh, I think I wouldn't mind it, but

386
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,880
I have a wife and children, so it's difficult for

387
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,680
me to do that. It'd be fine if you're away,

388
00:19:42,799 --> 00:19:45,079
like if you're in like Washington for a week, there's

389
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,119
nothing you can do. But if a cell phone couldn't

390
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,000
change all that by you know, hey, something's going on.

391
00:19:50,039 --> 00:19:52,519
I mean that my wife, my mom's battling cancer right now. Yeah,

392
00:19:52,599 --> 00:19:54,039
it would not be the time to do it. Maybe

393
00:19:54,039 --> 00:19:56,519
you're ten years from now. Okay, in ten years. Trying

394
00:19:56,519 --> 00:19:58,720
to get you to relax, Matt one day, it's not good.

395
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,160
Happened to this Hawaii trip? Years to go on. We've canceled.

396
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,799
I need you to go on relaxing vacation. It's just

397
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,799
not gonna happen, you know what. In all, honestly, I

398
00:20:11,839 --> 00:20:16,039
relax when I get to stay in like, uh, where

399
00:20:16,079 --> 00:20:19,079
we're going, Yeah next week is not relaxing. We'll talk

400
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,039
about this offer. Yeah, not right to air your laundry

401
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,440
going on a different city and not having a show

402
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,920
and on a weekend. It's relaxing. Yeah, I need you

403
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:28,519
to go on a beach for a week and stare

404
00:20:28,559 --> 00:20:31,559
at the stare at the waves and the sun properly

405
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,359
sunscreen of course, want burning I got I am the

406
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,960
pasty white guy. Yes, yeah, and just relax. You could

407
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,359
go with you well, with your wife and kids. Is

408
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,119
not going to be relaxing. No, they'd be fine. Yeah,

409
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:44,559
give them some money and send them on their way.

410
00:20:44,599 --> 00:20:48,720
Go go on going all inclusive, go go to jet ski. Yeah. See,

411
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,480
just don't do parasailing. They don't have the regulations. That

412
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,279
doesn't feel like it's very relaxing. It looks dangerous. Arms

413
00:20:54,279 --> 00:20:55,920
would all be tense, like, am I gonna fall? Don't

414
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,119
google parasailing accident. It's a mascot. I don't want to

415
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,559
do that, Okay, all right? Seven one ere two one

416
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,960
two five seven ninety seven one three two one two

417
00:21:03,039 --> 00:21:05,640
five seven nine zero. We're gonna run through some of

418
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,920
the audio we got from Texans practice yesterday. I let

419
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,240
you guys here a little sample of what's going on there. Uh,

420
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,319
there is some interesting baseball news we could very well

421
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,640
during the course of the show today. Have a Kyle

422
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:22,519
Tucker signing it sounds like it's down to two teams,

423
00:21:23,519 --> 00:21:26,519
and it sounds like one team I win and one

424
00:21:26,559 --> 00:21:30,759
team you win. I have not seen eight years anywhere.

425
00:21:32,039 --> 00:21:35,960
The Toronto deal would be a long term, that's the thinking,

426
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,920
but nobody's ever mentioned eight right. Long term could be

427
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,160
five or six. He's not signing a five or six

428
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:54,119
year deal. Are you sure? You seem very confident? U Uh.

429
00:21:54,559 --> 00:21:56,359
It would be four, it would be three or four,

430
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,039
or it's gonna be like nine or ten. I think

431
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,000
seven one three, two, one two five seven, ninety seven

432
00:22:06,039 --> 00:22:09,680
to one three two, one two five seven. The Pittsburgh

433
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,839
Steeler Nation has weighed in as well, and they said,

434
00:22:11,839 --> 00:22:17,599
what glad he's gone. Oh, I would probably say when

435
00:22:17,599 --> 00:22:20,000
you look, when you lose a first round playoff game

436
00:22:20,279 --> 00:22:25,160
again and you don't score any odd touchdowns, it's pretty

437
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,720
easy to say, don't hit atx hobo girl. Also, I

438
00:22:27,759 --> 00:22:29,599
was going to bring this up leaning defense, because that's

439
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,839
what they do. I mean, Tomlin Cower, Chuck Nole defenses

440
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,799
back in the day. But I'm sorry, you gotta go.

441
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,400
You gotta evolve with the times. Steelers Nation, it's an

442
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,599
offensive league. Yeah, defense can win.

443
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:43,759
Speaker 8: Now.

444
00:22:43,799 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: Of course, the Texans are trying to disprove that, and

445
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,079
you can win with a defensive coach, but I would

446
00:22:49,079 --> 00:22:51,480
say it's the exception more than the rule. So for

447
00:22:51,519 --> 00:22:53,799
the third consecutive day, Ross, I get in my car

448
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,599
listen to uh the Warning wake Up Call with Dan

449
00:22:56,759 --> 00:22:58,720
and the Dan or the Dan in which I thought

450
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,200
it was. This is the six am two ten am

451
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,440
show on Sports Talk seven ninety that's the name of it, right, Yeah,

452
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,119
that's it. And they're talking about something we've talked about

453
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,559
a lot this week that I don't think we can

454
00:23:08,599 --> 00:23:12,160
ever get past. When we come back again and tell

455
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:17,680
me what that is ten thirty on seven ninety. So

456
00:23:17,799 --> 00:23:22,559
I was listening to, uh, wake up Call with Colan Dan.

457
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,680
Why are you shaking your head? That was called we

458
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,960
should be supporting our fellow brethren the into this show

459
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:39,519
me the Morning Drive, right, you're not even sure? Not

460
00:23:39,559 --> 00:23:43,720
even I said it with confidence though, The Morning Drive

461
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,119
with you going Colon Dan or Dan and Cole. I

462
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,680
don't think Cole ever gets top billing? Why not? Great question?

463
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:54,559
I mean alphabetically it's Colon Dan, Dan Dan. We do

464
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,119
on this show. It's matten than Ross. Okay, Uh, first

465
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:02,400
and ten this morning was talking about the issue that

466
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,240
will not be not this. It can't be not discussed

467
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,240
over and over and over again. And we're guilty as

468
00:24:09,319 --> 00:24:11,799
charge of this as well. Okay, I listened for about

469
00:24:11,799 --> 00:24:16,799
a half an hour this morning. People can't get past

470
00:24:16,799 --> 00:24:19,000
the c J Stroud contract negotiations coming up with the

471
00:24:19,039 --> 00:24:24,039
next year or so. I've been thinking about it. Well,

472
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,759
but you're not the only person who talks about sports.

473
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:28,559
I mean, I'm just saying I listened for a half hour.

474
00:24:28,799 --> 00:24:32,720
It was CJ's loss, his confidence, CJ's loss his swagger.

475
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:34,880
How in the world can you put fifty five to

476
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,839
six million dollars in front of him? Is he? And

477
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,039
this is the one I heard. I don't know if I

478
00:24:39,079 --> 00:24:40,359
heard it on this show or at their show or

479
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,559
another show during the last day or so. You know

480
00:24:43,599 --> 00:24:45,279
the Airs on a Cardinals thought they had a quarterback

481
00:24:45,319 --> 00:24:49,200
in Kyler Murray. Yeah, maybe that Ray was money. Even

482
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,480
when that deal was sign people are like Kyler Murray, well, hey,

483
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,440
what do you think of tomorrow day Stroud? Wait a minute,

484
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,400
if the announcement to can tomorrow the c J Stroud's

485
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,799
on long term contract, people are like sure about that?

486
00:25:01,039 --> 00:25:05,480
New York Giants Daniel Jones. You don't mean to tell

487
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,039
me you don't think of his rules. Jones are good, Yeah,

488
00:25:09,599 --> 00:25:14,319
ain't y'all. But I mean, that's what I'm telling I'm

489
00:25:14,319 --> 00:25:16,000
telling you he's gonna get paid. I'm not telling you

490
00:25:16,599 --> 00:25:18,559
he's gonna get paid. But we gotta get ready for

491
00:25:18,599 --> 00:25:22,240
the really on top of our hands, Matt that really,

492
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,839
oh really, you're gonna go up there and go on

493
00:25:24,839 --> 00:25:27,079
to Hannah's podcast there slapped the pin out of his hands.

494
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,519
Listen to me, Hannah, listen, Hannah'm very closely. You're gonna

495
00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:36,039
need my support of a new stadium. I'm influential in

496
00:25:36,039 --> 00:25:38,279
this town, are you. I'm gonna I can help. I

497
00:25:38,319 --> 00:25:43,640
can make decisions for people, not really who yeah? What?

498
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,720
Uh yeah? What kind of pull you have with the

499
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,880
you don't know you. You don't know what value my

500
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,799
poll until I actually try to pull something. What Okay,

501
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,720
fifty five million dollars probably gonna be the low bar.

502
00:25:58,319 --> 00:26:01,200
David uh what is his name? David? And uh Mulla

503
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:05,640
Gett is going to say, look, goot his numbers. He's

504
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,519
not getting a hometown discount. Hannah's like, we gotta pay well, Anderson,

505
00:26:09,799 --> 00:26:12,279
I don't care your decision to take two guys in

506
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,680
the top five. I'll let you figure it out how

507
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:19,200
to pay him. Okay, David Mulla Getta by the way,

508
00:26:19,279 --> 00:26:22,400
Longhorn alump, Well, then maybe you can love a phone

509
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,759
call to him, say one bro long horned or other

510
00:26:25,759 --> 00:26:28,759
bro long horn Okay, I like the Texans. Now I

511
00:26:28,799 --> 00:26:30,640
need I need my quarterback to be happy with a

512
00:26:30,759 --> 00:26:35,599
very successful defense. I don't. I don't need Daniel Jones

513
00:26:36,079 --> 00:26:39,960
version two or or Conner Murray version two. Now that

514
00:26:40,039 --> 00:26:42,200
you brought it up, I'm trying to think of quarterbacks

515
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:43,839
who got paid that. People were like, oh, I don't

516
00:26:43,839 --> 00:26:46,559
know if they should do that, and then it worked out. Mahomes,

517
00:26:47,559 --> 00:26:49,799
Nobody was saying they shouldn't pay out. Oh you're saying,

518
00:26:50,039 --> 00:26:51,640
got queasy about it, and then all of a sudden

519
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,640
it worked out. Oh that's a greybe Jared Goff at

520
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:58,039
the Lions, Jack Prescott, Nope, Jared has been great. He's

521
00:26:58,079 --> 00:27:00,960
been great, but it's not but it at the expense

522
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,359
of other positions. Jared joneses well, Jerry Jones didn't know

523
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,559
how to run a team.

524
00:27:05,799 --> 00:27:06,039
Speaker 3: Uh.

525
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,640
Speaker 1: Let's see if Mike held on, if Dak Prescott would

526
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:13,759
have taken seventh or eighth money, which what which is he?

527
00:27:13,759 --> 00:27:15,960
He doesn't have to do that, that's not his that's

528
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,400
not his responsibility to be a cost cutter. Is Michael

529
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,279
Parsons still out Dallas Cowboy? Probably? The answer is yes,

530
00:27:22,519 --> 00:27:29,079
Michael Parsons, Katie Lamb too. That's true. But they pay everyone,

531
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,720
but you can pay something. People were like eh on

532
00:27:31,759 --> 00:27:34,400
the Jordan Love deal, and I think that's working out

533
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,319
even though they lost their playoff game. Maybe a Green

534
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:41,000
Bay Packers radio might know Packers radio. I'm just trying.

535
00:27:41,039 --> 00:27:44,200
I'm looking at high as AA VS. People weren't sure. Well,

536
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,680
I guess Jayleen Hurts. How's Jalen Hurts doing financially? He's

537
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,640
doing great, but he also signed before well before he

538
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,759
had this potentiallyanchise. Yeah, people weren't sure about Jalen Hurts

539
00:27:54,759 --> 00:27:56,680
and they won a Super Bowl and now they hate

540
00:27:56,759 --> 00:27:58,640
Jalen Hurts and ye they do, they do hate him.

541
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:04,400
Uh I purty good quarterback? Oh big money because they

542
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,079
were thinking, well, if he doesn't want to come back,

543
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:07,839
you got to save money for Mac Jones. I'm just

544
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:12,880
looking at fifty plus million quarterbacks here. Josh Allen Obviously

545
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,000
nobody thought that was a bad deal. Noding Love is

546
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,799
fourth and AAV so maybe Jordan Love is the parallel.

547
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,559
How how is packernation feeling about George before it? Before

548
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,960
before they were like eh, and maybe he's been good?

549
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:28,799
And maybe that's the argument with every quarterback. No matter

550
00:28:28,839 --> 00:28:30,519
how much you love a quarterback, you're gonna be a

551
00:28:30,559 --> 00:28:33,799
little squeamish about paying. That's why there's so much conversation

552
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,359
about winning games. When your quarterback is on his rookie county.

553
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,680
You have my personal guarantee C. J. Stroud will not

554
00:28:39,759 --> 00:28:44,839
fumble five times this weekend. Okay, we have that down.

555
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:46,440
Write that down and you put your name on it. Yeah,

556
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,119
I put my name on it. You know the weather's

557
00:28:48,119 --> 00:28:51,200
gonna be than Pittsburgh, no way. Know how he fumbles

558
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:55,720
five times? No chance? And think about this, You just

559
00:28:55,839 --> 00:28:58,640
you just gave you gifts, gave the most optimistic Texans fan.

560
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,839
Hope he fumbles five times and you win by four touchdowns?

561
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,440
Could happen he fumbled five times and they won thirty

562
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:11,400
to six. Now, the Steelers and the Patriots are two

563
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,440
different animals, but they're road games in cold weather. H

564
00:29:15,839 --> 00:29:19,240
It gonna be all right? How Snico Collins doing?

565
00:29:20,039 --> 00:29:20,359
Speaker 5: Uh?

566
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: Did you check the injury perpose yesterday as a DNP.

567
00:29:22,519 --> 00:29:24,920
I believe he was. I believe he was in a

568
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,000
Tahitian hotel getting a rubdown. Really, Yes, that's good. I

569
00:29:29,039 --> 00:29:31,920
guess I'm glad he's not in the neurology center. Funny

570
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,160
Joe Mixing didnt show up on their injury break. He

571
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,880
wasn't in brain surgery. That's true. Joe Mixon, what what

572
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,640
has Joe Mixon has? Has he tweeted since he tried

573
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,640
to dunk on Ian rapaport and say he was gonna

574
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:48,880
be fine? The insider may have information. Oh here we go.

575
00:29:49,519 --> 00:29:53,240
You wait a minute, I said, I may information, but

576
00:29:53,319 --> 00:29:55,680
sometimes you don't have to. You cannot give an information

577
00:29:56,039 --> 00:29:58,279
just because you want it when you want it. I

578
00:29:58,279 --> 00:30:01,000
gotta give it to you in due time. I'm doing

579
00:30:01,079 --> 00:30:04,880
some investigating, okay, And when I'm done with my investigating,

580
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,000
I'll be happy to share it with the audience. All right,

581
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,319
But yeah, there's some time for Woodward and Bernstein had

582
00:30:11,319 --> 00:30:13,599
to track down all their sources. That's exactly right. You

583
00:30:13,599 --> 00:30:15,440
got to check your sources with three different people too,

584
00:30:15,519 --> 00:30:19,640
That's true. I'm just telling you there is something uber

585
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:23,920
shady on this. Yeah, something bad happened. Yep, something off

586
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,880
the bingo board. No, yeah, a cler tear, upper left

587
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:32,240
hand corner, shoulder separation down on the bottom right, grade

588
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,279
two ankle sprain. It's right in the middle there. Yeah,

589
00:30:35,319 --> 00:30:37,799
it's off the bingo board. Shot his own foot on

590
00:30:37,839 --> 00:30:40,920
the board. That's as we were at the betting board.

591
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,480
It'd be the field. We'd be betting the field. Shut

592
00:30:44,559 --> 00:30:49,240
his own funed. I mean it could happen again. Why

593
00:30:49,319 --> 00:30:52,240
they Plexico did it twenty years ago? Why why are

594
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,000
they protecting him? If he was the dumb ass he

595
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,039
should he should be told the world, hey, we have

596
00:30:57,079 --> 00:30:58,279
a running back. We want to pay Hi a lot

597
00:30:58,279 --> 00:31:01,640
of money, and he shot himself. What's the point?

598
00:31:01,759 --> 00:31:01,799
Speaker 5: What?

599
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:02,279
Speaker 7: What?

600
00:31:02,279 --> 00:31:05,039
Speaker 1: What good will is? Are the Texans giving by not

601
00:31:05,079 --> 00:31:09,680
telling us? Are they hoping he's back next year? They're

602
00:31:09,759 --> 00:31:12,680
looking to avoid criminal charges, like you said, or somebody

603
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:16,599
said on Twitter, I think, hmmm, So now the Texans

604
00:31:16,599 --> 00:31:20,319
are trying to are trying to hide potential police activity?

605
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,200
Is that what you're saying? No, this is Sean Watson

606
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,319
is like I didn't have me once. This is what

607
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:29,039
you lead yourself to that Texans, when you shroud everything

608
00:31:29,039 --> 00:31:32,519
in mystery. Even if it's bad, just take your lumps.

609
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,480
Say it. In June, he's out for the season. He

610
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:39,240
discharged the firearm accidentally into his foot. Let's move on.

611
00:31:39,839 --> 00:31:42,599
That's right, because guess who get to shade at that point?

612
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,680
Jooe makes it. Joe makes it, takes the hit, and

613
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:46,759
then we move on with our lives.

614
00:31:46,799 --> 00:31:47,319
Speaker 2: We wouldn't be.

615
00:31:47,319 --> 00:31:49,119
Speaker 1: Talking about it right now. Sario is like, I don't

616
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,559
even I told you you let the story grow when

617
00:31:52,559 --> 00:31:55,319
you don't confront it. Matt. It really in the big

618
00:31:55,359 --> 00:31:57,599

00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,440
It's more let it take over your lives. I can sleep.

620
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,319
It's like any sort of issue with you in your

621
00:32:02,359 --> 00:32:04,519
personal life, Matt, you've got to take You gotta confront it,

622
00:32:04,759 --> 00:32:06,240
you gotta get on in front of it. You gotta

623
00:32:06,279 --> 00:32:08,160
be honest. Would you like the most to not let

624
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,519
it grow? Speaking of that, you know you are something

625
00:32:10,519 --> 00:32:13,680
I need to see therapist. I didn't tell you that. Well,

00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,799
weird dreams? Yes, you need to see there. I had

628

00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,279
I like that. All right, I haven't looked. What do

653
00:33:34,319 --> 00:33:36,880
you think the line is? I'll go five and a half.

654
00:33:37,039 --> 00:33:38,960
I thought I heard four. Oh you heard four. But

655
00:33:39,039 --> 00:33:41,079
I'm just making it cause I wanted to say four

656
00:33:41,079 --> 00:33:44,079
and a half, but I was like, ah, maybe one

657
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,319
extra point okay, so kind of four and a half. Okay,

658
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,359
So I kind of stuck with my gut, kind of

659
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,920
taking my horrible nightmare. Okay, go ahead. So those are again,

660
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,960
I'm sure many people, some people can sleep straight through

661
00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,200
the night. Are you straight through the night sleeper? Generally speaking?

662
00:33:58,599 --> 00:34:03,519
Oh hey, hey a doctor villary. Now, I'm glad you

663
00:34:03,559 --> 00:34:05,440
asked me that. First of all, I'm glad you're here.

664
00:34:05,519 --> 00:34:07,440
You're welcome, you're trying to help yourself, and you're trying

665
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,039
to improve it. What's your cop by the way, it's

666
00:34:10,039 --> 00:34:13,119
gonna be one fifty damn. Do you have an HSA?

667
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 9: Yes?

668
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: Okay, if you, if you can go ahead and give

669
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,719
me that card information right now, let me get my

670
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,079
story out of the way. Okay. Well all right, Well,

671
00:34:23,119 --> 00:34:25,719
first of all, the first step to helping yourself is

672
00:34:26,119 --> 00:34:28,559
starting with me, and that's very brave of you. And

673
00:34:28,559 --> 00:34:31,079
I'm very glad that you're here, and I'm happy and

674
00:34:31,119 --> 00:34:34,599
I'm proud of you. So I just wanted to thank

675
00:34:34,639 --> 00:34:38,440
you for being here and landing my pockets. Okay, this dream,

676
00:34:38,519 --> 00:34:41,719
which is a true nightmare. Yes, so I've been sleeping

677
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,239
at about ninety minute increments for the last week or so.

678
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,559
That's that's not healthy, man. I don't disagree with you.

679
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:49,119
I matter of fact, I told my wife last night,

680
00:34:49,159 --> 00:34:52,280
I'm gonna start screenshoting every time I wake up. Well,

681
00:34:53,159 --> 00:34:55,639
you could also get perhaps a fitbit or an Apple

682
00:34:55,679 --> 00:34:58,559
watch and try to track your sleeping that way. It's

683
00:34:58,559 --> 00:35:01,440
been helpful for me. I can only relate my own

684
00:35:01,519 --> 00:35:05,119
personal experiences, and I would highly suggest doing that. It

685
00:35:05,159 --> 00:35:08,280
can track your rim sleep, your high sleep cycles, your

686
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,719
low sleep cycles, and you can even set alarms smart

687
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,639
alarms with it to help you wake up better. Apparently,

688
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,599
when I looked at my phone and said, Matt, how'd

689
00:35:15,599 --> 00:35:17,599
your sleep go, and my sleep said you sleep like

690
00:35:17,599 --> 00:35:19,960
the pu emoji. So yeah, all right, here we go,

691
00:35:20,079 --> 00:35:26,679
doctor Hillary out. So I'm in an arena and I'm

692
00:35:26,679 --> 00:35:31,320
doing I'm sharing the PA duties for a game between

693
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:36,360
Denver and Oklahoma City. Okay, Denver and Oklahoma City. Yes,

694
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,000
you've only called PA for the Rockets in the Olympics

695
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:41,880
and the Olympics and the good Will Games and needs

696
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,519
to be around. But that's a different issue, and that's

697
00:35:43,559 --> 00:35:46,039
you had to learn Mandain. You were the Beijing Olympics. Oh,

698
00:35:46,039 --> 00:35:49,079
I worked in London games. I forgot about that, okay, okay.

699
00:35:49,199 --> 00:35:51,800
So the guy that started the game, I don't know

700
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,519
who it was, had this big board of names on it. Okay.

701
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,840
And he says, so the guy said in the second quarter,

702
00:35:57,880 --> 00:35:59,440
you're going to take over. So the game is moving

703
00:35:59,519 --> 00:36:02,880
very quickly. He gets out of his chair. Yes, I

704
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,280
run to the PA spot because we didn't want a

705
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,880
basket to be scored. No one say anything, okay, So

706
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:09,760
I sat down. This is this is a gods on

707
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:11,880
his street. Folks and Jonathan jump and jump on this

708
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,119
as well. Second quarter of the game between Denver Oklambus

709
00:36:15,119 --> 00:36:17,440
City and I'm calling the baskets like I would as

710
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:21,119
a P announcer. Huh. And there was a large plastic

711
00:36:21,199 --> 00:36:28,840
cup to my left okay. And it wasn't my drink, okay,

712
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,000
but I was thirsty. Yes, so I took a swig

713
00:36:32,039 --> 00:36:38,000
of it. It was a spit cup, as in like

714
00:36:38,039 --> 00:36:42,119
a tobacco. Correct. I took a large swig of the

715
00:36:42,159 --> 00:36:47,960
tobacco and then started hurling, hurling it all over the

716
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,320
scorer's table while still doing the PA of this game. Okay,

717
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,039
I was so horrified by this, this action of my nightmare,

718
00:36:55,119 --> 00:36:57,760
that it woke me up for the fourth time that night.

719
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:01,079
I was gagging when you woke up. Not no, no, okay, no,

720
00:37:01,159 --> 00:37:03,639
this is a this is a nightman. Never no literal gag.

721
00:37:04,159 --> 00:37:07,360
Did you wake up your wife? No, she's to sleep, well,

722
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,199
she's have you sleeper. Let me ask you, why am

723
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,840
I dreaming about doing the PA of an Oklahoma City

724
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,639
Denver game with a plastic cup that's not mine? You

725
00:37:16,639 --> 00:37:18,880
would never drink out of someone's cup that wasn't yours.

726
00:37:20,039 --> 00:37:23,519
And then when you take the sweets chaw, it's chewed

727
00:37:23,559 --> 00:37:29,840
up tobacco. Well, first of all, how could this have

728
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:33,079
entered your mind? Often, oftentimes, Matt, are dreams. Things that

729
00:37:33,119 --> 00:37:35,119
appear in our dreams are things that we've been recently

730
00:37:35,159 --> 00:37:40,320
thinking about, or have come across, or maybe even a

731
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:40,679
long time.

732
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:40,840
Speaker 9: You know.

733
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,559
Speaker 1: Primacy and recency man, So perhaps recently you've come across

734
00:37:44,599 --> 00:37:46,920
any any sort of tobacco spitting or have you done

735
00:37:47,039 --> 00:37:49,360
have you seen any any what's the when's the last

736
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:55,440
time you can recall a tobacco spatoon being in your vicinity?

737
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,440
Last time I was in a tobaccos near a tobacco

738
00:37:58,559 --> 00:38:03,960
spatoon would have to have been probably when Cameron was

739
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:09,000
playing youth baseball. Maybe, so we're talking ten years ten years? Okay,

740
00:38:09,039 --> 00:38:14,239
that's interesting. So, uh, you were doing a job that

741
00:38:14,519 --> 00:38:17,239
wasn't yours, correct for two teams that I don't work

742
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,760
in yours, and you grabbed a drink that wasn't yours, right,

743
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,119
and what happened? Your psyche rejected the things that weren't yours.

744
00:38:24,159 --> 00:38:25,960
So maybe this is this is a message to stay

745
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,519
on your own path, Matt, stay in your own lane,

746
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,679
stay true to yourself, don't work jobs that you've moved past,

747
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:37,239
that you've grown from, in markets that aren't yours. And

748
00:38:37,679 --> 00:38:40,800
maybe this is your your psyche rejecting you doing things

749
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:45,800
that you're not supposed to be doing, Jonathan, to thin

750
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:49,400
own self. To add to this is this is my apprentice, Jonathan, Jonathan,

751
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:50,199
what do you think about this?

752
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 5: One.

753
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 4: Well about the very Hillary. It sounds like this is

754
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,559
an even deeper crisis than we think.

755
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,679
Speaker 1: What I think you could be right? I think I

756
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:00,800
think I was trying to be nice.

757
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 4: Maybe our patient has you know, took something of others.

758
00:39:04,159 --> 00:39:07,559
Speaker 1: Wow, oh interesting, Yes, I like this take.

759
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:11,159
Speaker 4: And maybe he just hasn't visualized exactly what he had

760
00:39:11,199 --> 00:39:12,159
did that he's guilty about.

761
00:39:12,159 --> 00:39:15,159
Speaker 1: Maybe it's repest, the repressed in there killing Well, people

762
00:39:15,159 --> 00:39:17,119
are gonna first of all, they're gonna be thinking, don't take

763
00:39:17,159 --> 00:39:21,039
your phone to bed. I listened to podcasts to fall asleep. Yes,

764
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,360
that's probably not a good idea. But if I just

765
00:39:24,519 --> 00:39:26,039
I can't just go to sleep a moment, I need

766
00:39:26,039 --> 00:39:29,920
a podcast to listen to. Okay, well, I would suggest

767
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,840
any number of techniques not involving listening to podcasts to

768
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:43,760
go to sleep, breathing. Breathing techniques melowtonin meditations have been helpful.

769
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:48,320
Sleep sounds se sounds all right. Listening to guys talking

770
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:52,239
about injecting steroids and wrestling each other's and getting tape worm,

771
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,880
they're not doing that. It's not really great stories or

772
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,800
not tapeworm ringworm. I should say, all right, I just

773
00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:59,760
want to tell you all that, and again you're like, man,

774
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,800
you need more textans coverage. You're gonna get it three

775
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:02,800
more hours of Okay.

776
00:40:03,159 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 9: But.

777
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've got some issues. I think my I think

778
00:40:07,559 --> 00:40:09,519
mister Allen. You know, he's been graduated from a prentice,

779
00:40:09,559 --> 00:40:12,840
he's full doctor now because he got a lot of

780
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:16,079
repressed issues. I just know from deep down in my

781
00:40:16,159 --> 00:40:17,960
heart to y'all, because I do bear my soul to

782
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,719
you more than perhaps the other radio host do. I

783
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,679
have the strangest dreams in America. It absolutely makes no

784
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,960
sense what that was last night. I'm concerned about your

785
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,679
sleep habits. I would be concerned about my sleep habits too.

786
00:40:31,599 --> 00:40:33,559
That's why I take naps between In this break, we're

787
00:40:33,559 --> 00:40:35,920
gonna have a serious talk about sleep habits because it's

788
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,079
not right. That's why I'm sleeping between the show and

789
00:40:38,159 --> 00:40:39,760
the Rockets game. Then getting little nap in.

790
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:41,679
Speaker 5: M hm.

791
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,599
Speaker 1: Okay. Hopefully no terrible dreams during that before the Rockets

792
00:40:45,639 --> 00:40:48,719
gets thunder because I don't need shake Gilders Alexander nightmares

793
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,320
and I maybe I was thinking about today it's tonight's

794
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:54,840
game for some reason, I don't know. Maybe Denver, Oklahoma

795
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,800
City was the other team but you were in Denver.

796
00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,079
I don't want to say I was in I was

797
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,280
just I was just in an arena. Okay, you're in

798
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,199
the Cloud City. All right. Back to more intensive Texans

799
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,719
coverage again. This is me a little part of me

800
00:41:08,079 --> 00:41:10,480
telling you who I am now again. I couldn't make

801
00:41:10,559 --> 00:41:14,639
up that sur if I tried to. But anybody that

802
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:17,480
ever used tobacco, just be careful with your with your

803
00:41:18,039 --> 00:41:20,679
spit bucket or your spit cup, keep it far away

804
00:41:20,679 --> 00:41:22,599
from anybody that would potentially be in a bad spot.

805
00:41:23,599 --> 00:41:23,840
Speaker 5: I had.

806
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:25,639
Speaker 1: I saw a guy drink one at a college party

807
00:41:25,679 --> 00:41:32,239
once he ACKed immediately. Is the Matt Thomas Show with

808
00:41:32,559 --> 00:41:40,360
Ross Love It O two Sports Talk seven nine. Here's

809
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:42,320
hour number two of The Matt Thomas Show with Ross.

810
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:46,760
You hungry, ROSSI am being a little hungry. I'm always hungry.

811
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,159
I woke up a little extra early, but I'm trying

812
00:41:50,199 --> 00:41:52,599
to I try. Glycerides were up according to my doctor,

813
00:41:52,679 --> 00:41:54,920
so I'm trying to cut out like high fatty foods

814
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,679
like cheeseburgers. Cheeseburgers are good, though I know I love cheeseburgers.

815
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:02,039
You know, Big City Wings serves great cheeseburger. Yes, Burger Mondays.

816
00:42:02,119 --> 00:42:04,960
Now it used to be Burger Wednesdays, but cheese Burger's

817
00:42:05,039 --> 00:42:11,559
on Monday, Monday. Yeah, that's a great deal. I was

818
00:42:11,599 --> 00:42:16,559
there on Monday night football for the Texans family. I suggested,

819
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:18,760
I literally suggested it to everybody I was with. I

820
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,960
did not do a cheese I did a salad because,

821
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,920
as I said, my drug list rides are high. Okay,

822
00:42:23,039 --> 00:42:25,119
trying to keep my fatty foods down. So no cheese

823
00:42:25,119 --> 00:42:27,239
burgers for me. All right, let's get to what's going

824
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,440
on with the Texans. The injury report was out yesterday

825
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:34,360
and to no surprise, Nico Collins did not partake. It's

826
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,400
not a surprise, this is zero percent. He's not playing.

827
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,960
So we did have to ask C. J. Strout about

828
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,519
finding success for the Texans without Nico Collins.

829
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,280
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, we're hoping, you know, Nico can play

830
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,079
and you know, be able to play this game. But

831
00:42:49,679 --> 00:42:51,559
you know, if now you know, we we've had this

832
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,599
experience before, you know, played a couple of games this

833
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,800
year without him. Sadly, but you know, there's got all

834
00:42:57,840 --> 00:42:59,760
our guys are talented and you have a lot of

835
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,719
death have room and you know, I'm the most confidence

836
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:04,519
and everybody in there, you know, to get the job done.

837
00:43:04,559 --> 00:43:07,719
So you know, hopefully Nico is all right, but you know,

838
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,199
I think if not, you know, we gotta none else

839
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:11,920
we can do. Just go forward and you know, try

840
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:13,880
to you know, build with the guys we have.

841
00:43:14,119 --> 00:43:16,159
Speaker 1: Could you imagine if he just said, oh man, we're

842
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,960
about Nico. We got no chance. Oh lordy, we're done.

843
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:21,559
We're gonna fold up shop. I don't even know we're

844
00:43:21,559 --> 00:43:24,480
gonna go to the ball. He marks forty times, Nick

845
00:43:24,519 --> 00:43:27,440
Kayley's not answering my calls. Yeah I cannot, Hey, I

846
00:43:27,519 --> 00:43:31,280
cannot throw it to my tight end. Fifteen times a game?

847
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,679
Well you good? By the way, how many times did

848
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:38,199
I know athletes say you know a lot and we all,

849
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:40,400
you know, we all say it. We all have crutch phrases.

850
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,880
That was your point. That was a little excessive, but

851
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,960
that's neither here nor there. How many times did you

852
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,920
say you know? There was okay? And again, hold on, way,

853
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,119
get Jalen by the way, ready to go? Am I

854
00:43:52,159 --> 00:43:54,280
good here? Let me let me test this out, all right,

855
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:55,239
all right, let's go.

856
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,519
Speaker 10: Yeah. You know we're hoping you know, Nico can play,

857
00:43:58,639 --> 00:43:59,719
you know, be able to play.

858
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 5: The game.

859
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,519
Speaker 10: But you know if now you know, we we've had

860
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,800
this experience before, you know, played a couple of games

861
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,880
this year without him, sadly, but you know he's got

862
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:10,960
all our guys are talented, and you have a lot

863
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:13,559
of death in that room, and you know the most

864
00:44:13,599 --> 00:44:15,239
confidence in everybody in there, you know, to get the

865
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,639
job then, so you know, hopefully Nico is all right,

866
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:19,960
But you know, I think if not, you know, we

867
00:44:20,079 --> 00:44:22,119
used to hot to none else we can do. Just

868
00:44:22,199 --> 00:44:23,920
go forward and you know, try to you know, build

869
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:25,159
it with the guys we have.

870
00:44:25,559 --> 00:44:28,239
Speaker 1: I couldn't even I can't even go fast enough. You

871
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:33,000
didn't notice. I didn't notice until now, Well what is

872
00:44:33,079 --> 00:44:37,559
this way? He didn't say, Um, that's good. I say

873
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:39,800
too much. I say a lot of things too much,

874
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:42,719
but I I just I don't know. It just kind

875
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:44,800
of caught me off guard. Normally he doesn't do that.

876
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,679
I'll be brutally as with you. We all have crutch phrases.

877
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:50,880
That was that's a lot. I don't know why. I mean,

878
00:44:51,079 --> 00:44:53,559
would you rather have had or you know, you know

879
00:44:53,639 --> 00:44:55,519
what now I'm taking Patriots minus the points?

880
00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:56,599
Speaker 2: Why?

881
00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,599
Speaker 1: He said, you know too many times? Oh stop, let's

882
00:45:00,639 --> 00:45:02,639
get to the other side of things. Here's Demko on

883
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,119
the quarterback they will be throwing for the Patriots on Sunday.

884
00:45:05,199 --> 00:45:06,000
His name is Drake May.

885
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 11: I think Drake is doing a really good job of

886
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,039
making not making bad decisions with the football.

887
00:45:13,159 --> 00:45:15,320
Speaker 1: He's doing a really good job of utilizing, you know,

888
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:16,719
where his playmakers are open.

889
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 11: He's getting those guys to football and I think Josh

890
00:45:19,079 --> 00:45:21,760
is calling it really well for him to give him,

891
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,079
you know, easy plays to make good decisions. And where

892
00:45:25,119 --> 00:45:28,119
he's taking that next step is his ability to escape

893
00:45:28,159 --> 00:45:31,239
the pocket. I think it's really doesn't get talked about much,

894
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:33,920
but he his athletic ability, his ability to escape the

895
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,719
pocket has been really clutch for them. He's made some

896
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,719
big runs to really hurt a lot of defenses, so

897
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:42,519
we have to be conscious of that. But he's making

898
00:45:42,559 --> 00:45:45,519
good decisions. Good young player, has a really bright future.

899
00:45:46,119 --> 00:45:48,039
Can throw the ball at all three levels of the

900
00:45:48,119 --> 00:45:49,000
field very well.

901
00:45:54,519 --> 00:45:59,639
Speaker 1: Yes, that's all accurate, good praise. So why playing sound

902
00:45:59,679 --> 00:46:01,760
bites sometimes, I don't want to say waste of time,

903
00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:04,559
but it's just it adds on what depends on what

904
00:46:04,599 --> 00:46:07,440
the sound bite is. Some accents. What we've been talking

905
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,000
about giving a different perspectives. Demico does give you a

906
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,000
little something if you can want to read between the lines,

907
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,880
but not necessarily there and he's not going to do that.

908
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:18,039
Everything's going no, no, yeah, we got like five different

909
00:46:18,079 --> 00:46:20,360
ways we're gonna exploit this guy. So the only way

910
00:46:20,519 --> 00:46:22,639
we were ever able to read between the lines with

911
00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:24,360
him is when he was cranky earlier in the year

912
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,679
when people were worried about his offense and time out year.

913
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:30,599
Remember last year into the year, and he was like,

914
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:32,800
we got to do this better offensive and we're like, oh,

915
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,320
Bobby Sloan's gone. Bobby put that four sales sign up

916
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:41,639
in front of your townhouse. There he was asked about

917
00:46:41,679 --> 00:46:43,920
Balbi slowk and he like deflected the question or something

918
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,599
I can't remember. Yeah, he's not going to lie to you,

919
00:46:46,679 --> 00:46:48,000
but he's not going to take you the complete truth

920
00:46:48,119 --> 00:46:50,519
of course. And remember I always tell you this before.

921
00:46:50,599 --> 00:46:52,880
It's okay to lie. It just is it makes it easier.

922
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,000
It depends on the situation. We had a situation last

923
00:46:57,119 --> 00:46:59,920
week we were talking about where the oh it was about,

924
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:02,199
but uh oh, I remember it was about the Luca

925
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:06,400
Dante trade between the Mavericks and the Lakers. If you're

926
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:08,920
Nico Harrison and he's a general a general manager of

927
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:10,960
the Mavericks at the time. And someone says, I have

928
00:47:11,119 --> 00:47:12,920
reports that you've been talking to five or six teams.

929
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,599
You just say no, I wasn't you gotta get the

930
00:47:15,679 --> 00:47:17,119
market going going drummed up?

931
00:47:17,519 --> 00:47:19,920
Speaker 5: Yeah? What a?

932
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,079
Speaker 1: And now there's talking about Anthony Davis being traded and

933
00:47:23,199 --> 00:47:25,079
he's got a he's got Ligaman, Dana, Jen and Tay

934
00:47:25,079 --> 00:47:27,559
and he's gonna be out multiple months. It wasn't Shams

935
00:47:27,559 --> 00:47:29,760
tweeting about him being traded like he's on the market now.

936
00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,880
I think he still could be traded because whoever wants

937
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:34,760
him wants him for a playoff run for the four

938
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:36,760
games that he might play in. What how old is

939
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:41,599
Luca twenty six or twenty seven? H they traded away

940
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:48,199
Luca freaking dunches? Is he he's back on the He's

941
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:55,239
back to Dewey. That's not good. Well, I think, uh,

942
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,519
you know, perhaps he needs to root out whatever issues

943
00:47:58,519 --> 00:48:01,159
it is that causes him to overeat. Maybe he needs

944
00:48:01,159 --> 00:48:04,039
to go on the ross villaryal diet. Let me get

945
00:48:04,039 --> 00:48:07,719
my notepad out. What's happening is they're treating the symptom,

946
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:12,079
not the disease. They know, they're they're just going for there.

947
00:48:12,199 --> 00:48:14,559
So what they're doing, we're opening up, they're not getting

948
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,480
they're not getting to the core of the issues. Because

949
00:48:17,519 --> 00:48:19,360
when we go for too many things. You know, when

950
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,840
you're going for too much alcohol, too much drugs, too

951
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,639
much food, too much gaming, whatever it is, you're doing

952
00:48:24,679 --> 00:48:26,320
too much. A lot of times you're you're trying to

953
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,159
escape from something. A lot of times that's something is yourself.

954
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,880
So what Luka Doncics needs to do is he needs

955
00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,039
to get to the root of his issues and he

956
00:48:35,199 --> 00:48:37,440
needs to figure all that out, and everything else is

957
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,639
going to fall into place because he is overeating and

958
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:44,920
he seems like he can't control it. Because a stretch.

959
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:46,360
So you can try to do it for a little bit,

960
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,360
it's not going to the workout, and an alcoholic cannot

961
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,119
drink for a day or a week or a month,

962
00:48:50,159 --> 00:48:53,679
but eventually they fall back into old patterns on the road,

963
00:48:53,679 --> 00:48:57,840
they're running away from something. I'm not talking about. You

964
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:01,519
look at Donchs. So what they're doing is they're they're

965
00:49:01,559 --> 00:49:04,599
they're treating the symptoms. As I say, if you have

966
00:49:04,639 --> 00:49:06,840
a running nose and a sore throat and you keep

967
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,599
taking medicine, but it turns out you have allergies because

968
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,000
there's literally an oak tree in your living room. Get

969
00:49:12,039 --> 00:49:15,119
the tree out. Don't just keep taking medicine. Take care

970
00:49:15,119 --> 00:49:18,039
of the roots. Get the roots that root out the issue,

971
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,880
root out the cause. Don't just treat the symptoms, treat

972
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:30,400
the disease. I don't want to go from here. We

973
00:49:30,519 --> 00:49:35,559
were talking about Nico and Drake May, and we got

974
00:49:35,639 --> 00:49:37,960
to a rando about Luca and then we went into

975
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,320
a two minute diatrame about his weight. I'm just trying

976
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,599
to help Luca dongeons. Yeah, you know what you do.

977
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,719
You are healthy people. If anybody needs any help, yeah,

978
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:49,920
doctor Hillarrial is here for you. I'm trying. It's seven

979
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,280
one three two one two five seven ninety seven one

980
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:57,119
three two one two five seven nine zero. JJ. Watt

981
00:49:57,119 --> 00:50:01,159
had some high praise for who do you think Trick

982
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,599
May the team he used to play for? Mike Rabel,

983
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:08,719
Uh No, he didn't. He's not breaking down Cardinals. I

984
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:10,719
mean maybe maybe the Cardinals in the church, but not

985
00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:12,800
the Cardinals he used to play for. Isn't it crazy

986
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:16,440
that he left with a double deck digit SAX season.

987
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,360
I went out on top kind of. I mean, he

988
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:21,960
had stoled down a little bit, but he was he

989
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,559
could have played more. I'm just happy he passed Sean Jones,

990
00:50:24,559 --> 00:50:26,199
who tried to say he was a better pass rusher

991
00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:29,400
than JJ Watt because he had more sex. Love you, Sean.

992
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:32,039
Sean also said he tried to say he said I'm

993
00:50:32,039 --> 00:50:35,320
a radio career to actually he did, or he started

994
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,440
your say your career or something. He started it and

995
00:50:37,599 --> 00:50:41,039
saved it all in the same month. Apparently everything is

996
00:50:41,159 --> 00:50:44,079
owed to Sean Jones. I love that. Actually I believe it.

997
00:50:44,599 --> 00:50:46,920
You shouldn't believe it. I think Sean's a liar, and

998
00:50:47,079 --> 00:50:52,559
I love Sean. What a liar? Yes, Max, because you

999
00:50:52,599 --> 00:50:54,719
know what your talent, the cream would have risen to

1000
00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,559
the top without Sean Jones. A good liar can also

1001
00:50:57,639 --> 00:51:00,760
spot a good liar and want to know what exactly

1002
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:04,559
I got you exactly? All right? So we got some

1003
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:06,760
high praise coming from JJ wabble. Let you hear from

1004
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:10,159
that coming bank we got at bottom of the hour

1005
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,119
we have I just don't get it. Okay. For those

1006
00:51:12,159 --> 00:51:13,519
who are new to the show, which, first of all,

1007
00:51:13,519 --> 00:51:15,159
where the hell have you been? Have you listen? You

1008
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:16,880
listening to the cussing and discussion. Is that what you've

1009
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,639
been doing? Come over here. We're going to entertain you

1010
00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:21,360
and give you a variety of things over four hours

1011
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,519
every single day, ten o'clock. And should the c J

1012
00:51:23,679 --> 00:51:27,559
Stroud be signed long term? No, let's not do that. Well,

1013
00:51:27,599 --> 00:51:28,920
it'd be easier to do a show that way, but

1014
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,159
that's not great radio. Yeah, we don't pick the low

1015
00:51:31,199 --> 00:51:33,320
hanging fruit, Matt. Well, I mean we can. We sometimes

1016
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:39,440
do summertime, and we definitely do that. What's your favorite pizza? Dusky? Now,

1017
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,760
so CJ's I should say JJ. We got these initials.

1018
00:51:44,119 --> 00:51:46,599
JJ is going to have seep some high praise. We'll

1019
00:51:46,599 --> 00:51:48,480
get to the rockets a little bit here as well.

1020
00:51:49,079 --> 00:51:52,920
And well, we have a Kyle Tucker signing between now

1021
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,320
in the two o'clock witching hour of the Matt Thomas

1022
00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,400
Show with a ross. You just made my stomach foot flop.

1023
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:02,519
I'm making your wallet flip flop. You better get that

1024
00:52:02,639 --> 00:52:05,880
same credit card out there. I deserve it. I I

1025
00:52:06,039 --> 00:52:10,719
can't even be mad. I will deserve it. Every every

1026
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:16,159
bit you bring up, every scream, every tweet, everyone, every

1027
00:52:16,559 --> 00:52:20,159
every picture, I will deserve it. I can't even be

1028
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:23,639
mad that is accurate seven one three two one two

1029
00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:26,800
five seven seven one three two one two five seven

1030
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:33,840
all right, I love an eighteen here on sports talk

1031
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:36,920
Sainnatti ross. Uh, I just told this a rassoman to go.

1032
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:39,280
That Space City is coming today. They're doing a feature

1033
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:45,199

00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:49,239
don't seem too thrilled. I don't care. Ex Yeah, that's cool.

1035
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:53,719
Middle of the season, obviously low on content. Playoff team,

1036
00:52:54,039 --> 00:52:56,239
get ready for the playoffs. You're looking for a ratings hit.

1037
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,599
They're gonna get it today with me. Okay, great, So

1038
00:52:59,679 --> 00:53:02,639
they'll be in about one today. So if if Vanessa

1039
00:53:02,679 --> 00:53:04,800
comes back, I don't know. Vanessa worked ESPN last okay,

1040
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:06,400
so I don't know if she's I gotta fix my hair.

1041
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,239
I gonna be on TV. Yeah, you're definitely getting on TV.

1042
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:11,280
Oh crud. When are they coming?

1043
00:53:11,559 --> 00:53:11,639
Speaker 5: Uh?

1044
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:13,599
Speaker 1: Should be between one and one thirty. All right, I'll

1045
00:53:13,599 --> 00:53:16,960
wet my hair about twelve forty five. Okay. I didn't

1046
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:19,519
bring any hair oil today, do you are? Are you

1047
00:53:19,519 --> 00:53:21,519
a big hair oil guy? I normally in the mornings,

1048
00:53:21,559 --> 00:53:24,199
if I remember, like what kind of oil you're talking about,

1049
00:53:24,199 --> 00:53:33,239
it's a Moroccan sleek hmmm, I don't. It's good to comment. Yeah,

1050
00:53:34,159 --> 00:53:37,360
I guess it's better than sunflower oil. Yeah, I don't do.

1051
00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:40,519
You can put whatever you want in there. Coconut oil. Gross?

1052
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:45,400
You ever cooked with coconut oil? Yeah? I guess no

1053
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:48,119
avocado will have used. I got you a great seed guy.

1054
00:53:48,119 --> 00:53:51,679
All right, moving on my tears, my fault. This is here.

1055
00:53:51,880 --> 00:54:03,199
Oh by the way, great tweet from friend of the show,

1056
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,960
Rich Southside Rich sixty four. Good morning to you, Matt.

1057
00:54:07,039 --> 00:54:09,239
Thirty plus years ago. Your nightmare actually happened to me.

1058
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,960
I was in a bar shooting pool. Reached back behind

1059
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:13,840
me and grab what I thought was my beer bottle,

1060
00:54:14,159 --> 00:54:16,840
took a swig, realized what happened, and right the restroom,

1061
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,639
which is going to happen He went to the lady's room,

1062
00:54:19,679 --> 00:54:26,159
though no I went to recently went into the ladies

1063
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:28,519
room one accident at a restaurant. I got the one

1064
00:54:28,559 --> 00:54:30,519
for you. How many times in your life, Jonathan, you

1065
00:54:30,599 --> 00:54:32,360
go first, How many times in your life have you

1066
00:54:32,559 --> 00:54:37,559
accidentally gone into the ladies room? Maybe like once? That's it.

1067
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:41,320
That's pretty good. Nah, It's happened to me once this

1068
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:43,440
year on the Rockets road trip going I think I've

1069
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:46,079
done it twice in the last year. I was in

1070
00:54:46,159 --> 00:54:48,360
San Francisco at halftime of the Rocket's Warriors, and I

1071
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:49,880
like to go to the bathroom right away so I

1072
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:52,960
can beat the crowd. Did you use it? No, no, yeah,

1073
00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:55,079
you run it because once you see all stars. No no, no,

1074
00:54:55,639 --> 00:54:58,360
no no no. I've never gone to the rest. It's

1075
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:03,440
not true situation. Urgent situation at a convenience store. So

1076
00:55:03,519 --> 00:55:09,800
I's wrong about that. You're at the stop and get, Yeah,

1077
00:55:10,599 --> 00:55:12,760
the come and go, you know what I mean? And

1078
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:15,599
I had to go. Uh but yeah. I was in

1079
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,119
the Rockets Warriors game in San Francisco and I ran

1080
00:55:18,159 --> 00:55:20,280
into the bathroom at halftime, realizing there was no stalls,

1081
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:22,760
and I looked around and there was women walking in

1082
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,559
and I was like, I'm out of town, and of

1083
00:55:25,639 --> 00:55:27,159
all cities, have probably let you go to bathroom in

1084
00:55:27,199 --> 00:55:29,360
a different ones' plaemption. That's why you're on that predator

1085
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:31,960
watch list. That's probably so all right. J. J. Watt

1086
00:55:32,199 --> 00:55:35,199
was on a certain national television show we won't mention

1087
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:38,199
which one it was. Okay, you guys can figure it out,

1088
00:55:38,679 --> 00:55:41,239
and he bragged about the local football team in town,

1089
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,199
including the Texans defensive coordinator Matt Burke.

1090
00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 12: He took over this defense after week three or four

1091
00:55:47,519 --> 00:55:50,119
of this year when it was when they were zering three,

1092
00:55:50,519 --> 00:55:52,840
and he turned them into the number one defense in

1093
00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:55,400
the NFL. Now, that's not to take anything away from Dimico,

1094
00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:58,039
who obviously has had the forty nine ers defense. He's

1095
00:55:58,079 --> 00:56:00,800
had this Texans defense playing well the whole time. So

1096
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:03,639
Demico obviously has hands in all of this. But Matt

1097
00:56:03,679 --> 00:56:06,000
Burke has done an unbelievable job. And there's plenty of

1098
00:56:06,039 --> 00:56:07,719
people that when you bring him up in head coaching

1099
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:11,199
conversations say well, can he bring Will Anderson and daneil

1100
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:13,239
Hunter and Derek Stingley with him to the next job?

1101
00:56:13,519 --> 00:56:15,840
It's like, well, you could say that about literally any

1102
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:18,960
coordinator ever that gets a job. Can can they bring

1103
00:56:19,599 --> 00:56:22,199
the Josh Allen with them? Can they bring this guy

1104
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:22,599
with them?

1105
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:22,760
Speaker 5: Like?

1106
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,159
Speaker 12: Yeah, if you have good players, you're not going to

1107
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:26,760
do all this exotic stuff because you.

1108
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:27,239
Speaker 5: Don't have to.

1109
00:56:27,519 --> 00:56:30,440
Speaker 12: You play to your team's strengths, and right now, their

1110
00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:32,440
team strengths are very strong.

1111
00:56:32,679 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 7: You don't need to do any exotic stuff. Matt's a great,

1112
00:56:35,559 --> 00:56:36,079
great dude.

1113
00:56:36,159 --> 00:56:39,280
Speaker 12: I think he absolutely should be getting head coaching calls, and.

1114
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:41,760
Speaker 1: He is getting a head coaching calls. Is I believe

1115
00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:43,760
Tennessee was on the list to speak to you. Really,

1116
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,119
they're talking to everybody, Well, why wouldn't you? I mean

1117
00:56:46,159 --> 00:56:48,480
you eventually, Amy Krunk. Strunk's got to get it right sometime.

1118
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:50,719
How do you think he feels watching Mike Rabel doing

1119
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:54,679
his thing in New England? How do you think Tennessee

1120
00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:57,320
Titan fan feels about Mike Ribbel being as successful as

1121
00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:03,239
he is. I think generally she probably is doing some

1122
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:06,199
mental gymnastics to convince herself she still did the right thing.

1123
00:57:06,559 --> 00:57:08,199
She's probably still like, oh, well, you know what, we

1124
00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:10,159
don't have those players, Oh we don't have Drake May

1125
00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:11,880
and oh we don't have this. She's like doing all this.

1126
00:57:12,119 --> 00:57:14,280
Oh they had a soft schedule. You know who's probably

1127
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:20,320
championing the Patriots had a soft schedule, Amy Strunk. Let

1128
00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:22,039
me tell you what Amy Strunk's thinking about it. She's

1129
00:57:22,039 --> 00:57:25,440
hate watching who is she rooting for this weekend? She

1130
00:57:25,559 --> 00:57:29,719
has a new stadium coming up. She got no complaints. No,

1131
00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:32,519
she's fine, but she's got she's hate watching this game.

1132
00:57:32,639 --> 00:57:36,760
She's rooting for the earthquake in Patriots Texans. Who is

1133
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:44,079
She's Oh, she's rooting for the Patriots ever so slightly

1134
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:49,559
because guess what, her dad never brought Houston super Bowl

1135
00:57:49,639 --> 00:57:54,239
a super Bowl. You're gonna let my vaybel getting one

1136
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:59,199
step closer. Though, she can live with that lesser of

1137
00:57:59,239 --> 00:58:01,639
the two evils, That's what I'm saying. Neither like Vrabel

1138
00:58:01,679 --> 00:58:04,559
wins the super Bowl. Same thing. She can't deal with that. No, No,

1139
00:58:05,159 --> 00:58:07,719
she cannot handle the Texans going to the super Bowl.

1140
00:58:08,199 --> 00:58:12,599
She will lose her mind. This is actually, you know what,

1141
00:58:12,679 --> 00:58:15,039
I actually want to do a Twitter pool now, even

1142
00:58:15,079 --> 00:58:16,760
though I don't know how it's much, she's gonna resonate

1143
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:20,920
with the people. Probably not much, but that's okay. No,

1144
00:58:21,159 --> 00:58:24,599
I I firmly believe she Again, both situations are less

1145
00:58:24,719 --> 00:58:29,079
than prime. Both she's grinning her teeth on are you kidding? No, waight?

1146
00:58:29,159 --> 00:58:32,079
The Adams family never brought a super Bowl to Houston,

1147
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:36,239
and Hannah brought one. No way is she licking that

1148
00:58:36,639 --> 00:58:42,400
she hates the Texans and the Texans hate her. I

1149
00:58:42,559 --> 00:58:46,079
guarantee you. Hannah sent Amy a strunka krunka a text

1150
00:58:46,119 --> 00:58:50,719
and said, suck it, bitch. There's no you're guaranteeing me, yes,

1151
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:52,480
suck it be there's zero.

1152
00:58:52,679 --> 00:58:53,639
Speaker 2: We got one.

1153
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:57,280
Speaker 1: You didn't beides by, and then Amy says, look at

1154
00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:59,719
my new stadium. You don't have one yet. Bye. Oh yeah,

1155
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:01,840
they're they're in a super Bowl. You might be getting easy.

1156
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:04,840
They're catfighting right now. They win a super Bowl, the

1157
00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:07,199
resolution is gonna be on the ballot come fall. May

1158
00:59:07,239 --> 00:59:10,199
be the case. All right, back to board, JJ, he

1159
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:13,679
thought of one player that should get more flowers and

1160
00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:14,920
he's getting Who is that? JJ?

1161
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:19,000
Speaker 12: I've been saying this for many years that Danil Hunter

1162
00:59:19,159 --> 00:59:22,480
is the most underrated player in the league. He legitimately

1163
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:25,679
is a Hall of Famer like he's he should be

1164
00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:27,760
a Hall of Famer. He is the least talked about

1165
00:59:28,039 --> 00:59:30,039
future Hall of Famer in the world in my mind,

1166
00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:32,519
especially if he continues to do what he's been doing.

1167
00:59:36,199 --> 00:59:40,280
Speaker 1: Hmmm, all right, I'm pulling up the all time sacklist,

1168
00:59:40,639 --> 00:59:42,920
Bob Way, would you also I'll look up his contract

1169
00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:47,360
stuff Danil Hunter? Yeah, because I got some terrible news

1170
00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:50,800
for going long term. You can't pay Will Anderson and C. J.

1171
00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:54,360
Stroud and Nico Collins and Daniel Hunter and he it's

1172
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:55,960
easier to get rid of because he's thirty one, but

1173
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:57,599
he looks like he's in the prime of his career.

1174
00:59:57,679 --> 01:00:01,119
So I understand he is under trek through the twenty

1175
01:00:01,239 --> 01:00:05,280
twenty sixth season, which is one more year. Yeah. If

1176
01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:10,039
you love Danielle Hunter, cherish the remaining games he has

1177
01:00:10,199 --> 01:00:14,480
in Houston, Texan, because I got news for you. The

1178
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,519
Texas need a running back too, and I would think

1179
01:00:18,719 --> 01:00:20,440
you're gonna presume they're gonna be spending some money on

1180
01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,239
a running back, right they just can't can't draft capital

1181
01:00:24,239 --> 01:00:29,360
draft one and what round, second or third? Okay, offensive line,

1182
01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:32,840
first round, running back, second round, off line, third, fourth, fifth,

1183
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:36,599
sixth round. Yeah, load upon lineman and running back. Yes, yeah,

1184
01:00:37,199 --> 01:00:40,480
don't miss on all o line Kenyon Green. All right,

1185
01:00:40,519 --> 01:00:43,440
So scro back to JJ is Blake Fisher. What is

1186
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:44,960
Daneil Hunter's all time numbers?

1187
01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:46,039
Speaker 5: Uh?

1188
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:51,599
Speaker 1: He has? Oh, I'm sorry that that sacks for everything? Yeah,

1189
01:00:51,639 --> 01:00:54,599
but I mean as far as Hall of Fame careers, yes,

1190
01:00:54,679 --> 01:00:57,800
it's hard to get those linemen in. He's thirty seventh

1191
01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:00,519
on the all time sack list with one one hundred

1192
01:01:00,519 --> 01:01:03,559
and fourteen and a half, tied with JJ Watt all time,

1193
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:09,159
ahead of Khalil meck Aaron Donald was an inside guy,

1194
01:01:09,199 --> 01:01:10,519
but he had one hundred and eleven. I'm trying to

1195
01:01:10,519 --> 01:01:15,360
look at like Hall of Famers. He's ahead of Randy White,

1196
01:01:17,039 --> 01:01:20,719
head of Charles Haley, but those sack numbers. No, Charles

1197
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:22,960
Haley had sack numbers. Charles Haley a guest on Radio

1198
01:01:23,039 --> 01:01:25,440
Row at some part of US. Warren Sapp also an

1199
01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:31,199
interior guy. I mean Danielle Hunter, it sounds like you.

1200
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:33,119
I mean, if JJ has given an endorsements something, He's

1201
01:01:33,239 --> 01:01:35,000
very close to that. But it just it isn't roll

1202
01:01:35,079 --> 01:01:38,679
out the tongue when you're building your all time defensive line.

1203
01:01:38,719 --> 01:01:40,559
Daniel Hunter's not the first time you think of TJ

1204
01:01:40,719 --> 01:01:43,320
Watt has half a sack more than daneil Hunter all time,

1205
01:01:43,599 --> 01:01:45,480
but Daniel Hunter has two more years in the league.

1206
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:48,599
He's tied with JJ Watt. He's ahead of Sean Jones.

1207
01:01:48,320 --> 01:01:49,000
Speaker 2: By one and a half.

1208
01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:53,039
Speaker 1: Oh don't tell Sean that. Oh lordy, while l Zato

1209
01:01:53,119 --> 01:01:55,119
with one hundred and twelve, but also most of his career.

1210
01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:58,079
I think they might have went back and Pro Football

1211
01:01:58,079 --> 01:02:00,360
Reference like went back and like watched tapers like that.

1212
01:02:00,599 --> 01:02:06,840
That's because you know they're not doing what JJ Watt says,

1213
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:10,280
the Texans defense. You know, just how good is that defense? JJ?

1214
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:17,000
Speaker 12: Two defensive touchdowns they get They had three turnovers on

1215
01:02:17,119 --> 01:02:19,880
offense the Texans did, and the Steelers still ended up

1216
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:23,119
with six points on the night. Like, that's unbelievable to do.

1217
01:02:23,559 --> 01:02:28,119
The defense is just incredible. Will Anderson's insane. Miles Garrett

1218
01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:30,920
obviously very clearly the defensive player of the Year this year,

1219
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:34,880
but Will Anderson's year is incredible and I could definitely

1220
01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:36,840
see defensive Player of the Year in the future for him.

1221
01:02:37,119 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 7: And then the back end, Like I don't know whose

1222
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:39,880
sweet it was.

1223
01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:43,440
Speaker 12: I saw somebody quote it, but somebody said, the Texans

1224
01:02:43,559 --> 01:02:47,320
defense looks like a bunch of Veloci raptors holding machine guns,

1225
01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:50,400
eleven of them coming at you. That's exactly what it

1226
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:52,679
looks like, dude. They are just hyenas out there just

1227
01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:56,280
flying and killing people. It moves different, it shakes different,

1228
01:02:56,360 --> 01:02:58,239
it hits different. They're unbelievable.

1229
01:03:01,599 --> 01:03:06,280
Speaker 1: And can they overcome oh below average offense. They've done

1230
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:08,280
it once already, and they've done at about nine previous

1231
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:11,199
times before that. They overcame it, well, they got four.

1232
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:13,440
This is the thing too, though, The turnovers were bad.

1233
01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:19,280
The Texans gained four hundred yards in that game. That's

1234
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:22,199
not nothing. Four hundred yards to like one seventy five.

1235
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:24,719
I think for the Steelers, well again, Christian Kirk had

1236
01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:27,480
almost one hundred and fifty yards, yes, receiving him by himself.

1237
01:03:27,559 --> 01:03:30,480
I think we are with The turnovers were bad, the

1238
01:03:30,599 --> 01:03:33,960
fumbles were bad, but they were moving the ball with

1239
01:03:34,119 --> 01:03:37,800
Woody Marx. And as you said, Christian Kirk two hundred

1240
01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:40,360
and fifty yards of CJ. Stroud two hundred and fifty yards,

1241
01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:43,079
one touchdown, one interception isn't the worst line ever posted

1242
01:03:43,079 --> 01:03:46,360
by a quarterback, not even close. So they were moving

1243
01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:48,599
the ball. They just weren't punching enough sevens and they

1244
01:03:48,639 --> 01:03:50,639
turned the ball over in the in the red zone.

1245
01:03:54,679 --> 01:03:56,920
So be a little better, don't turn the ball over,

1246
01:03:57,199 --> 01:04:00,320
be a little better against a little better team, and

1247
01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:03,719
you're gonna win, which I'm sticking with nineteen to seventeen.

1248
01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:07,199
The Patriots are gonna score less than twenty points two

1249
01:04:07,239 --> 01:04:11,679
weeks in a row. Yeah, okay, I'll charge I'm better

1250
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:15,599
Chargers defense or Texans Texans. Okay, Now, unfortunately, you know

1251
01:04:15,679 --> 01:04:19,480
one busted play or whatever. Whose defense is better, Patriots

1252
01:04:19,639 --> 01:04:31,440
or the uh uh Steelers Steelers com people know Steelers

1253
01:04:31,559 --> 01:04:34,599
comparable seven one three, Oh here we gotta we gotta

1254
01:04:34,599 --> 01:04:37,360
do our just don't get it's coming up. Yeah, this

1255
01:04:37,559 --> 01:04:41,039
isn't half hour. We spend every week or thereabout something

1256
01:04:41,639 --> 01:04:44,760
that in your life you just don't get. And we

01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:14,119
gotta work with? Ye poor you, Oh high maintenance. Either

1267
01:05:14,119 --> 01:05:17,159
there may be some sort of misunderstanding or you may

1268
01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:20,519
just something in life you just don't get. It is

1269
01:05:20,599 --> 01:05:23,920
a Matt Thomas show with Ross. Just make sure it's

1270
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:27,199
still on seven one three, two one two five seven ninety.

1271
01:05:27,239 --> 01:05:29,559
This is where you calling with it. Literally anything could

1272
01:05:29,559 --> 01:05:32,719
be sports related, it can be life related. We are

1273
01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:35,119
here for you, because we will get back to the

1274
01:05:35,199 --> 01:05:37,440
Texans conversation throughout the course the next couple hours. We

1275
01:05:37,519 --> 01:05:41,960
do the Rockets game against the Oklahoma City thunder tonight

1276
01:05:42,079 --> 01:05:44,280
six thirty is a tip time, Well, cluck six forty

1277
01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:46,239
went you in your seats at six fifteen, So I'll

1278
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:51,440
go there. And maybe the answer is, even if the

1279
01:05:51,519 --> 01:05:53,320
games are at seven or seven thirty, we are Why

1280
01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:58,760
are we a late arriving crowd for frankly all three

1281
01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:03,000
of the sports teams? Is it because of the venues?

1282
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,440
Is it because of where they're located. Texans fans don't

1283
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:09,840
get to energy until late first quarter? Is it tailgating?

1284
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:10,519
Speaker 4: Is it?

1285
01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:13,320
Speaker 1: The club scene in the arena is really good, but

1286
01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:17,639
that's not eighteen thousand club seats. That's about two thousand

1287
01:06:17,719 --> 01:06:19,039
if you think about it. I mean most people in

1288
01:06:19,039 --> 01:06:20,880
the lower level canyon and getting the clubs upper or

1289
01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:24,199
lower unless you pay for it. Astro fans can get

1290
01:06:24,239 --> 01:06:26,159
their second inning. But that's a little bit different because

1291
01:06:26,159 --> 01:06:28,320
there's so many games. I think though all let me

1292
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:30,760
just say, I just don't get it, Okay, I think

1293
01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:34,000
Astros fans are pretty good, especially playoff time, but it

1294
01:06:34,079 --> 01:06:37,079
took a while. It took a while. Yeah, maybe that's

1295
01:06:37,119 --> 01:06:39,760
part of why we get it. I mean, the Rockets

1296
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:42,760
haven't won a championships. I mean, you tell me ninety

1297
01:06:42,760 --> 01:06:44,519
four to ninety five, was the crowd there early or no,

1298
01:06:44,679 --> 01:06:46,440
was it still late? I want to say they were

1299
01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:50,119
there early, Like, for instance, there's about four or five

1300
01:06:50,159 --> 01:06:53,239
places in the NBA that I go that they're there at,

1301
01:06:53,280 --> 01:06:59,440
Tip Times, Chicago, Toronto, Brooklyn, New York. Maybe it's just

1302
01:06:59,559 --> 01:07:03,559
the cult of the South. Maybe Atlanta doesn't get there

1303
01:07:03,559 --> 01:07:05,960
any faster. San Antonio does a pretty good job. I

1304
01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:08,320
think it's not any one answer, Okay, I think it

1305
01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:13,159
is a lack of team success overall. Long term. I

1306
01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:16,280
think it is Maybe you said maybe it's a cultural

1307
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:18,000
or Southern thing or whatever. I think it is the

1308
01:07:18,039 --> 01:07:20,440
corporate crowd, especially with the Rockets, it feels like more

1309
01:07:20,519 --> 01:07:21,039
than the others.

1310
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:23,800
Speaker 4: Well, if it's north for us as South, it could

1311
01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:26,000
be travel as well, getting to the stadiums.

1312
01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,559
Speaker 1: It's yeah, but I mean it's a decent location. Traffic's bad,

1313
01:07:29,639 --> 01:07:31,079
but I mean they have the garage, there's a lot

1314
01:07:31,119 --> 01:07:33,199
of parking around. I feel like, am I wrong because

1315
01:07:33,199 --> 01:07:35,559
I'm spoiled because I go to the garage as a

1316
01:07:35,639 --> 01:07:38,559
media member. Well, some people don't like the garage because

1317
01:07:38,559 --> 01:07:41,000
it's very congested around the garage. Yeah, but usually I

1318
01:07:41,079 --> 01:07:42,960
do postgame and it's cleared out. So I got no

1319
01:07:43,039 --> 01:07:46,079
problem with that personal spin on it.

1320
01:07:46,239 --> 01:07:46,360
Speaker 9: I know.

1321
01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 1: I'm no, that's what I'm saying. I'm spoiled. Yeah, yeah,

1322
01:07:48,519 --> 01:07:50,440
so I don't know. I can't speak to it, but

1323
01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:57,039
I think it's a team we're better, and that it

1324
01:07:57,159 --> 01:08:00,440
is the corporate. Like I said, I knew guy who

1325
01:08:00,519 --> 01:08:04,400
was not from Houston who worked with a bank downtown

1326
01:08:05,039 --> 01:08:09,239
and they had great seats, and he and his banker bros.

1327
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:11,280
Would go to a happy hour and like, forget what

1328
01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:13,400
all the games? Oh it seven o'clock games starting, and

1329
01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,760
then they'd get there seven thirty eight. Like that's just that.

1330
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:18,000
That's a lot of people do that. Or they also

1331
01:08:18,119 --> 01:08:25,079
just stay up in the in the club area. It sucks.

1332
01:08:25,399 --> 01:08:28,159
It has been an argument that sports teams in this

1333
01:08:28,319 --> 01:08:32,479
town have had internally for thirty years. I can't speak

1334
01:08:32,479 --> 01:08:34,359
to the Texans. Can we get WEX on the line?

1335
01:08:36,079 --> 01:08:37,680
West isn't am press by ten o'clock the morning? He

1336
01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:40,239
would building into this. Yeah, but he's he's in his

1337
01:08:40,359 --> 01:08:42,560
seat by noon, so he knows who I mean. Now,

1338
01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:44,960
how many times you look at people shooting videos or

1339
01:08:45,279 --> 01:08:48,319
a photos, it seems like a energy at noon at

1340
01:08:48,399 --> 01:08:51,039
kickoff and there's like fifteen twenty thousand MCCs. Again, we

1341
01:08:51,079 --> 01:08:53,199
can go back to the winning Well, never made a

1342
01:08:53,239 --> 01:08:56,199
freaking AFC championship game. They're back to back Super Bowl

1343
01:08:56,319 --> 01:08:58,279
champions There any people butts in seats at noon?

1344
01:08:58,479 --> 01:08:58,600
Speaker 5: Right?

1345
01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:04,000
Speaker 1: But the Rockets have thought about seven seven thirty. They've

1346
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:06,560
thought about the how the weekends go. You say seven thirty?

1347
01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:08,199
When did they switch that seven? Eight years ago something

1348
01:09:08,199 --> 01:09:10,279
like that? Longer than that? Yeah, long? I mean when

1349
01:09:10,279 --> 01:09:12,239
I was doing PA ten years ago, it was seven o'clock. Okay,

1350
01:09:12,359 --> 01:09:14,640
so it's been probably fifteen years probably since they were

1351
01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:18,520
seven thirties. I would say I would say the prevailing

1352
01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:21,880
number one reason would be just win baby. The Astros

1353
01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:23,560
are the best in this town as far as people

1354
01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:24,359
getting there on time.

1355
01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:24,720
Speaker 9: M hm.

1356
01:09:26,279 --> 01:09:29,319
Speaker 1: And it's not a coincidence those they're the most successful team. Well,

1357
01:09:29,359 --> 01:09:33,680
I also think it's astro fans. See this makes sense.

1358
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:37,479
Astro fans purchase the tickets and actually are the ones

1359
01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:41,359
that buy the tickets. The corporate numbers are probably higher

1360
01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:43,600
for the text. It's also corporate higher. Our numbers are

1361
01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:45,560
higher for the rockets. Yeah, let's just say there's I

1362
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:48,439
don't even know, let's random number, eight thousand corporate seats

1363
01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:52,520
in every stadium. Well, there's forty thousand in the astros,

1364
01:09:52,600 --> 01:09:55,520
there's sixty five or whatever thousand in NRG. So the

1365
01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:57,960
percentage is going to be higher in the in the

1366
01:09:58,039 --> 01:10:01,680
rockets overall, would you are I don't know, but it's

1367
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:04,880
it's a tough it's entire percentage of corporate because also

1368
01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:08,359
corporate wants nicer seats. They're gonna want sweet they're gonna

1369
01:10:08,399 --> 01:10:12,000
want floors, they're gonna want lower bowls. Corporate corporations aren't

1370
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:13,199
buying the four hundreds.

1371
01:10:14,039 --> 01:10:14,399
Speaker 5: But it is.

1372
01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:17,760
Speaker 1: It's a Kevin said it Durant down on this Twitter.

1373
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:20,760
It's like, man, we're we're a second quarter sitting. We are,

1374
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:25,119
and I don't know if maybe a championship or change

1375
01:10:25,159 --> 01:10:30,039
that absolutely and it probably would be right. Yeah, Jonathan Jonathan, Yeah,

1376
01:10:30,079 --> 01:10:31,520
what come with you? Jonathan Jonathan? Why don't you get

1377
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:32,159
this week? My friend?

1378
01:10:33,279 --> 01:10:36,039
Speaker 4: All Right, mine might sound funny, but I swear this

1379
01:10:36,119 --> 01:10:39,760
is genuine, Okay, because earlier this week some car, some

1380
01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:43,680
toytal Corolla just cut me off and I'm looking right

1381
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:46,399
at as bumper and it goes baby on board. Then

1382
01:10:46,399 --> 01:10:49,199
I started thinking about it. Why do people even do that.

1383
01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:52,880
Let's I don't get while are you putting the little

1384
01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:56,079
stick of baby on board? If I don't like student driver,

1385
01:10:56,159 --> 01:10:57,920
I don't understand that. I mean, if you're driving, you're

1386
01:10:57,960 --> 01:10:59,800
driving and I don't baby.

1387
01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:01,640
Speaker 1: On board to me, sounds like please be careful and

1388
01:11:01,680 --> 01:11:04,239
stay far away from us. Yes. So I actually read

1389
01:11:04,279 --> 01:11:08,239
this recently on Twitter or article like, uh, your people

1390
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:13,560
Jonathan gen Zers. Yeah, are you know a lot of

1391
01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:15,560
times you know, they've grown up on their phones their

1392
01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:17,560
whole lives, so they have anxiety when they actually go

1393
01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:20,880
into the real world. So because they're so anxious and

1394
01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:23,239
they want people to be careful driving around them, they

1395
01:11:23,359 --> 01:11:25,920
have people who don't have children, people who are not

1396
01:11:26,079 --> 01:11:29,319
student drivers. Because I've been seeing student driver everywhere lately too.

1397
01:11:30,279 --> 01:11:33,560
People who they're putting student driver and or baby on

1398
01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:38,760
board stickers on their cars. In their minds, it's gonna

1399
01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:42,439
make people drive more cautiously around them. That's what I

1400
01:11:42,520 --> 01:11:44,840
can google this now because I literally saw this, Like

1401
01:11:44,840 --> 01:11:46,439
I said, it was there an article on it recently.

1402
01:11:48,039 --> 01:11:49,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, because that person cut me up and I was like, wait,

1403
01:11:49,920 --> 01:11:51,359
you don't have a baby in your car, and and

1404
01:11:51,399 --> 01:11:52,640
that's not like three more cars.

1405
01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:54,920
Speaker 1: I was like, dang, Yeah, So that's why that's why

1406
01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:57,079
they're doing it, because they're they want people to drive

1407
01:11:57,159 --> 01:12:00,520
more cautious. It's like it's like an unofficial stay a

1408
01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:04,399
little further away from me. Now they don't now, but

1409
01:12:04,680 --> 01:12:06,239
you don't expect the baby to be on board every

1410
01:12:06,239 --> 01:12:08,039
single time, right, You can't do the baby everywhere, That's

1411
01:12:08,079 --> 01:12:11,760
what I'm saying. Yeah, you're you're asking you want the

1412
01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:13,399
sticker to come off from the baby ain't on board,

1413
01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:15,279
So you want them to like hang a little sign

1414
01:12:15,319 --> 01:12:18,039
in there and take the sign down like moral when

1415
01:12:18,039 --> 01:12:20,600
the doctor is. You know what I'm gonna do. I'm

1416
01:12:20,600 --> 01:12:22,159
gonna start putting a baby on board in my car.

1417
01:12:23,159 --> 01:12:26,800
All people say away from me. I wonder if that

1418
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:29,119
actually does work, you know, I just I don't know.

1419
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:37,000
All right, Rossie would don't you get y'all are gonna

1420
01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:39,359
say you get it? But that's part of the show.

1421
01:12:41,159 --> 01:12:48,560
Why is everybody using AI for everything? Chat, gpt, uh whatever, Google,

1422
01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:54,520
Gemini grow and because no, but this is the thing

1423
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:56,760
I get. I get the idea of it. It's easier,

1424
01:12:56,800 --> 01:12:58,359
I don't have to think about it. I asked AI.

1425
01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:00,920
But how many more times do you need to be

1426
01:13:01,039 --> 01:13:05,720
burned by AI being wrong and getting incorrect information? And

1427
01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:09,279
we've seen people who are publishing articles using AI and

1428
01:13:09,399 --> 01:13:13,119
it's misinformation and things that I I do believe it

1429
01:13:13,199 --> 01:13:16,680
or not every day and I ignore the Google AI.

1430
01:13:16,920 --> 01:13:19,319
I don't look at it anymore because it's been wrong

1431
01:13:19,399 --> 01:13:22,399
too many times. So when you get burned enough times

1432
01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:25,720
and then you continue to use it, I understand the

1433
01:13:25,800 --> 01:13:28,880
idea of using it, but at this point it's so

1434
01:13:29,159 --> 01:13:31,760
wrong so often. I don't understand why people are still

1435
01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:33,319
using it so much. I have a friend of mine

1436
01:13:33,359 --> 01:13:37,039
who will not name his name, gets an arguments with

1437
01:13:37,319 --> 01:13:41,640
Google AI, with the uh yeah because chat GPT they're

1438
01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:46,359
all wrong so much arguments though, Yeah, I personally people

1439
01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:51,359
get girlfriends. They can't girlfriends. This person says, if you

1440
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:55,319
get this wrong chet each GPT, I want your He

1441
01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:58,039
says terrible things to this chat GPT. Really, it's like,

1442
01:13:58,119 --> 01:14:00,319
I'm gonna have a guess. I'm gonna have you, I'm

1443
01:14:00,359 --> 01:14:02,239
gonna have you shut down. I'm gonna have your computer

1444
01:14:02,319 --> 01:14:05,920
program restarted and chatty. It's really different. It's like it's

1445
01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:11,560
like a conversation, like what what are y'all doing? Walk

1446
01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:14,880
out of your house? Is people? Please go for a

1447
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:18,199
walk amongst the trees the fresh air. Smell some fresh air,

1448
01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:21,479
touch some grass. And it doesn't help that everything. Look

1449
01:14:21,560 --> 01:14:24,199
up something. It's straight AI. It's not any it's rotten.

1450
01:14:24,560 --> 01:14:26,199
You know what I need to figure out, Like I

1451
01:14:26,279 --> 01:14:28,560
think you put I think you put Google search and

1452
01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:30,680
you put minus AI or something like that. I need

1453
01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:32,359
to use that because I'm gonna tie of this. All right.

1454
01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:34,760
We got folks that have questions for us on things

1455
01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:36,800
they don't get. We'll get to them next eleven forty

1456
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:39,000
five here on Sports Talk seven ninety all right, well

1457
01:14:39,279 --> 01:14:40,960
we wouldn't, we would not. We don't like to have

1458
01:14:41,039 --> 01:14:44,000
dead air. Uh, the computers are frozen. It's been the

1459
01:14:44,159 --> 01:14:46,760
issue all week long. Yeah, it's okay, and it's been

1460
01:14:46,800 --> 01:14:48,239
really a problem when we moved to this building. But

1461
01:14:48,279 --> 01:14:50,319
that's a different issue for a different time. Life is hard.

1462
01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:55,520
It's fine. Uh, seven one three Doomed and doomed and doom, doom, Doom.

1463
01:14:55,600 --> 01:14:58,600
Let's go to our friend provide the phone's work, Larry

1464
01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:00,680
and spring on seven and Larry, good morning to you.

1465
01:15:03,159 --> 01:15:08,319
Speaker 5: Well, uh say, man, okay, this is just personal personal

1466
01:15:08,359 --> 01:15:14,359
experience of my wife. I don't get after over forty years,

1467
01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:18,960
we're playing on going somewhere the day before. I give

1468
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:23,520
her time everything I get up to late morning in

1469
01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:30,560
time enough and we never leave on time. I don't

1470
01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:34,039
get it. Now. To correlate that with this, do you

1471
01:15:34,399 --> 01:15:39,520
notice how many women be at Texas not just football,

1472
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:43,079
baseball and basketball Texas events.

1473
01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:46,560
Speaker 1: Huh So you're saying it's the women are holding is

1474
01:15:46,600 --> 01:15:49,159
the reason the crowds are Like, No.

1475
01:15:49,279 --> 01:15:55,640
Speaker 5: I'm not saying, okay, thank you very much.

1476
01:15:55,680 --> 01:16:00,000
Speaker 1: Sorry, it sounds like you yeah, yeah, So he doesn't

1477
01:16:00,039 --> 01:16:02,239
get why his wife's always late. You know it's funny.

1478
01:16:02,239 --> 01:16:06,439
Women are never late for their nail oppointments. What hair appointments? Right?

1479
01:16:06,479 --> 01:16:08,439
You know we can we cant just go hair appointments.

1480
01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:12,279
I'd stay out of this. They're not late when the

1481
01:16:12,520 --> 01:16:16,399
nutcracker market opens up, when they want new shoes or

1482
01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:18,880
new clothes of them all. They're not late when his

1483
01:16:19,039 --> 01:16:27,600
girls on out. They're not late when it's bridal party,

1484
01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:31,800
I mean a gager bridle shower. Baby, shower man. If

1485
01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:33,760
it's late, if you're going to meet some couples to

1486
01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:36,039
have dinner and drinks at a at a restaurant and

1487
01:16:36,159 --> 01:16:39,800
watch a big game, late for that? Yeah, women, let

1488
01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:41,760
me ask you all this. Why y'all late for stuff

1489
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:43,439
that's important to us and you're not late for your

1490
01:16:43,439 --> 01:16:44,359
own personal stuff?

1491
01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:47,920
Speaker 2: Bros?

1492
01:16:48,079 --> 01:16:52,479
Speaker 1: Any thoughts. I mean, I'm pretty bad punctually in general.

1493
01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:59,079
I always overestimate. I should say underestimate. Like, if let's

1494
01:16:59,079 --> 01:17:00,760
say something's ten minutes, I'm like, oh, I'll be there

1495
01:17:00,760 --> 01:17:02,319
in ten minutes. Well, I have to brush my teeth,

1496
01:17:02,359 --> 01:17:03,840
I have to get ready, I have the shower or whatever.

1497
01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:05,359
So I'm not going to be there in ten minutes.

1498
01:17:05,560 --> 01:17:07,199
It takes me ten minutes to get there. But for

1499
01:17:07,279 --> 01:17:10,159
whatever reason, I can't make the I'm just bad. I'm

1500
01:17:10,199 --> 01:17:12,920
getting better or kind of trying to.

1501
01:17:14,079 --> 01:17:15,640
Speaker 2: Hey, I was here.

1502
01:17:17,479 --> 01:17:20,239
Speaker 1: A reasonable time today, and I was early yesterday because

1503
01:17:20,239 --> 01:17:22,279
I had to pre record something because you weren't here

1504
01:17:22,399 --> 01:17:24,319
just for the sake of the show. Here, I was here,

1505
01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:27,520
I was here before you. You're not even here half

1506
01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:31,039
the time, So that's true. I got the road next week,

1507
01:17:31,119 --> 01:17:32,760
kind of looking forward to it. I love getting up

1508
01:17:32,800 --> 01:17:35,119
late and just putting on the radio equipment and is

1509
01:17:35,159 --> 01:17:37,920
going four hours of greatness from my room. Yeah. The

1510
01:17:38,039 --> 01:17:39,640
things I can do in my bedroom while on there

1511
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:44,760
is amazing, of course, providing great quality sports content and

1512
01:17:44,920 --> 01:17:48,039
other stuff. David and humble. David, what don't you get,

1513
01:17:48,079 --> 01:17:48,359
my man?

1514
01:17:50,119 --> 01:17:54,960
Speaker 6: I don't get where some people Matt Thomas, and we

1515
01:17:55,119 --> 01:17:59,359
look around Houston, the all the alls in Houston and

1516
01:17:59,560 --> 01:18:03,760
everywhere that we go that I go, that people do

1517
01:18:04,119 --> 01:18:06,000
the same thing over.

1518
01:18:05,920 --> 01:18:06,399
Speaker 5: And over again.

1519
01:18:06,399 --> 01:18:09,720
Speaker 6: It's the art of insanity. It's the art of insanity

1520
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:13,760
is that people do things over and over and over

1521
01:18:13,920 --> 01:18:14,520
and over.

1522
01:18:14,359 --> 01:18:17,199
Speaker 1: Again, respecting expecting a different result.

1523
01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:19,279
Speaker 6: As that expecting the difference.

1524
01:18:19,800 --> 01:18:22,319
Speaker 1: What example are you looking looking at here, David.

1525
01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:25,840
Speaker 6: Well, eating disorder?

1526
01:18:28,199 --> 01:18:28,920
Speaker 1: Eating disorder.

1527
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:34,800
Speaker 6: People, Uh, when they're fat, they eat cookies and cakes,

1528
01:18:34,960 --> 01:18:39,039
pies and things of that nature, and knowing that they

1529
01:18:40,159 --> 01:18:42,680
are eating too much of the cookies, cakes and pies

1530
01:18:43,640 --> 01:18:47,640
and candy and it's not good for them, and they

1531
01:18:48,319 --> 01:18:53,239
do it and it's insanity and they in their mindset

1532
01:18:53,279 --> 01:18:56,199
that they don't want to lose weight and become healthy.

1533
01:18:56,359 --> 01:18:58,239
Speaker 1: David, I got a problem. I got a quick solution

1534
01:18:58,359 --> 01:19:00,880
to you. David, cookies and pies and cakes taste good.

1535
01:19:02,279 --> 01:19:02,960
That's why you do it.

1536
01:19:03,039 --> 01:19:03,760
Speaker 6: Put too much of it.

1537
01:19:04,319 --> 01:19:05,399
Speaker 1: That we'll put too much of it.

1538
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:06,119
Speaker 6: It's not good.

1539
01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:08,520
Speaker 1: Too much of a bad thing. It's actually what we

1540
01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:13,079
talked about with Luka Doncic David. These are generally deeply

1541
01:19:13,159 --> 01:19:17,359
rooted psychological issues. Not liking yourself. You need that little

1542
01:19:17,439 --> 01:19:21,439
hit of dopamine. You need that little joy, these little

1543
01:19:21,479 --> 01:19:24,000
because you're not you're not. Yes, here we go, oh yeah,

1544
01:19:24,079 --> 01:19:29,359
let me get oh here, Yes, this is great this bit. Yeah,

1545
01:19:29,399 --> 01:19:32,600
I'm gonna start charging on you. Because when you're not

1546
01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:35,439
happy with yourself and you're not happy with your life situations,

1547
01:19:35,479 --> 01:19:39,279
you look for happiness elsewhere, these little bits of happiness,

1548
01:19:39,399 --> 01:19:42,479
whether it be eating too many snickers and m and ms,

1549
01:19:43,720 --> 01:19:48,199
whether it be too many alcoholic drinks where you're trying

1550
01:19:48,239 --> 01:19:51,159
to escape reality and you're trying to bring yourself up.

1551
01:19:51,199 --> 01:19:54,479
You know, I've also often equated it to like a

1552
01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:57,159
hot air balloon, man. You know, along this life that

1553
01:19:57,199 --> 01:20:00,399
we're in, we're in a hot air balloon, okay, and

1554
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:02,640
there's these bags of sand that drag us down in

1555
01:20:02,720 --> 01:20:06,079
this balloon, whether it be personal traumas, whether it be

1556
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:10,760
unhappiness with our work or our lives or anything going on,

1557
01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:12,680
things stressing us down. Those are the bags of sand

1558
01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:16,479
that drag us down. And in order to find an equilibrium, often,

1559
01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:18,880
what do you do with that hot air balloon? Met

1560
01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:22,039
You fuel it up, You hit the fire, you try

1561
01:20:22,079 --> 01:20:23,800
to so you can rise above it. And a lot

1562
01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:26,399
of times that fuel for people is going to be food,

1563
01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:29,359
it's gonna be alcohol, it's gonna be drugs, it's going

1564
01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:33,119
to be just scrolling your phone endlessly. And what you

1565
01:20:33,199 --> 01:20:35,920
need to do rather than just fueling up with those things,

1566
01:20:36,279 --> 01:20:38,000
you need to cut those bags. You need to cut

1567
01:20:38,039 --> 01:20:40,800
those bags of sand. You need to figure out and

1568
01:20:40,920 --> 01:20:44,880
address those issues and fix those stresses and fix those traumas.

1569
01:20:45,439 --> 01:20:48,199
So those bags of sand aren't dragging you down anymore,

1570
01:20:48,319 --> 01:20:50,439
and you don't have to fuel up as much with

1571
01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:54,800
food or whatever other vices. So cut the bags of

1572
01:20:54,880 --> 01:21:01,239
sand and you'll live a happier life. We all say, amen, Uh,

1573
01:21:01,399 --> 01:21:05,640
can c J. Stroud have a fewer turnovers this Sunday

1574

1582
01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:44,520
CO pays one hundred and fifty dollars and it's reasonable?

1583
01:21:45,880 --> 01:21:46,039
Speaker 9: Is it?

1584
01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:49,479
Speaker 1: Sure? Went out? Sounds good to me. Let's get to

1585
01:21:49,640 --> 01:21:51,279
what is most importantly the reason why we do pay

1586
01:21:51,279 --> 01:21:52,760
you the large amount of money that you make here

1587
01:21:52,760 --> 01:21:54,800
at the radio station, and that's to give us the

1588
01:21:54,920 --> 01:22:00,880
news at noon. Yes, Matthew, a number of things going

1589
01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:04,279

1593
01:22:13,720 --> 01:22:17,840
fifteen start. Rockets taking on the Oklahoma City Thunder. They

1594
01:22:17,880 --> 01:22:20,079
are four and a half point dogs at home in

1595
01:22:20,199 --> 01:22:22,760
this one. Should be a cracker of a match. Also,

1596
01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:24,520
they'll be on a back to back Matt, no rest

1597
01:22:24,560 --> 01:22:26,239
for the weary. How are you feeling, by the way,

1598
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:29,159
on the road all year long, all these road games

1599
01:22:29,239 --> 01:22:32,520
and doing okay, I look great. Have been two days

1600
01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:34,239
off and however long and they're not getting another one

1601
01:22:34,279 --> 01:22:35,800
for like what three more weeks or so. We have

1602
01:22:36,159 --> 01:22:38,640
a hlacious game scheduled games coming up. Yeah, it was

1603
01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:40,920
a lot of days off early this season. Three days out,

1604
01:22:41,039 --> 01:22:43,039
three games and four days coming up. Now they're getting

1605
01:22:43,119 --> 01:22:45,439
tightly compacted there on the back they're going this is

1606
01:22:45,479 --> 01:22:46,800
the first leg of a back to back. They'll be

1607
01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:52,520
taking on the Minnesota Timberwolves tomorrow as well. Also some

1608
01:22:52,680 --> 01:22:57,880
noodles in the NFL. According to Adam Schefter, John Harbaugh

1609
01:22:58,199 --> 01:23:01,520
expected to be the new York York Giants head coach.

1610
01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:06,039
Of course they've tossed in the barring a setback, So

1611
01:23:06,159 --> 01:23:10,000
barring a setback, John Harbaugh is going to be the

1612
01:23:10,720 --> 01:23:19,359
new New York Giants head coach. Your reaction, I didn't hear.

1613
01:23:19,399 --> 01:23:22,520
I'm Jean Harball. Oh Giants head coach was the chalk

1614
01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:25,079
pick all the way through? Right, Yes, it felt like

1615
01:23:25,159 --> 01:23:27,199
the best mix. Does he have the best quarterback of

1616
01:23:27,239 --> 01:23:30,079
any of the opening jobs? Unless you like cam Ward?

1617
01:23:30,279 --> 01:23:32,520
I would do you know what? Kim Moore played good,

1618
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:34,960
played pretty well. Towards the end of the season. But

1619
01:23:35,039 --> 01:23:38,279
do you want to be with a Amy Adams Strunk? Also,

1620
01:23:38,359 --> 01:23:39,680
do you want to be the Marris The Mars have

1621
01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:42,000
a bad track record. We'll bring it this way. These

1622
01:23:42,079 --> 01:23:44,680
teams that are looking for coaches, they've been looking for

1623
01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:48,079
coaches for a long time. Tennessee and Arizona, the Giants'

1624
01:23:49,159 --> 01:23:52,319
organizationally as Steelers, are the best situation, like a stable,

1625
01:23:52,399 --> 01:23:54,279
good ownership situation. Well, if you go off with the

1626
01:23:54,359 --> 01:23:56,000
number of coaches they've had in the last forty years,

1627
01:23:56,000 --> 01:24:02,079
the answer would be right, Okay, just something to think about, Okay, Matt. Well,

1628
01:24:02,199 --> 01:24:06,119
we have the latest in a gambling scheme with the

1629
01:24:06,239 --> 01:24:09,399
NCAA and the FBI. These are coming every couple of

1630
01:24:09,479 --> 01:24:14,199
weeks now. But now, according to ESPN and this article

1631
01:24:14,239 --> 01:24:19,640
written by David Purdham, their gambling writer, twenty men have

1632
01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:24,000
been charged in a point shaving scheme involving thirty nine

1633
01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:32,439
college basketball players on seventeen different Division One teams, leading

1634
01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:35,880
to twenty nine different games being fixed, according to a

1635
01:24:36,079 --> 01:24:41,239
federal indictment unsealed today in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

1636
01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:45,560
Now I saw the list of partial lists. I didn't

1637
01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:48,279
stare at it. It looked like to me a lot

1638
01:24:48,399 --> 01:24:51,439
of very very low Division I schools. Doesn't make it right,

1639
01:24:52,840 --> 01:24:55,760
but nothing that really sink our teeth into going, Oh

1640
01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:58,520
my gosh, the essence of the INCAA tournament could be impaired.

1641
01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:01,439
I would say the most RECOGNI deible of these programs

1642
01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:06,760
would probably be two lane Southern Miss Yeah. Sat Louis

1643
01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:10,920
had some recognition back in the day. Nothing lately de

1644
01:25:11,119 --> 01:25:16,960
Paul Alabama State Kennedy. Then it's like Fordham lasal. Oh,

1645
01:25:17,039 --> 01:25:19,439
we need to get Bill Raftery's thoughts on the LASU corruption.

1646
01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:21,920
You know, his last coaching spot was Seaton Hall. So

1647
01:25:22,279 --> 01:25:25,439
mean's LASAU alump that he is and beloved. I believe

1648
01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:31,239
there so apparently a pretty pervasive corruption scheme that is

1649
01:25:31,319 --> 01:25:37,520
being called historic. This scheme was focused on fixing games.

1650
01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:41,479
Also in the Chinese Basketball Association. Oh, we know somebody

1651
01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:43,479
used to play there. You know what, if you're if

1652
01:25:43,520 --> 01:25:47,560
you're betting on the CBA, if you're betting Chinese basketball,

1653
01:25:48,000 --> 01:25:51,079
please seek help. I mean, look, I don't mind getting

1654
01:25:51,079 --> 01:25:53,119
a little taste on the under over. I'm gonna throw

1655
01:25:53,199 --> 01:25:57,319
together twenty dollars teaser for the playoff game this weekend.

1656
01:25:57,880 --> 01:25:59,760
But if you're betting on the CBA, you need to

1657
01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:04,159
see help my god, you're sick. Tell me how you

1658
01:26:04,239 --> 01:26:04,720
really feel.

1659
01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:05,880
Speaker 3: Uh?

1660
01:26:06,079 --> 01:26:09,640
Speaker 1: Okay. Apparently they targeted college basketball teams as well, offering

1661
01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:12,960
bribes to college players ranging from ten thousand to thirty

1662
01:26:13,079 --> 01:26:19,439
thousand dollars to compromise these games. The defendancy frauded sports

1663
01:26:19,479 --> 01:26:22,000
books as well as individual sports better who are all

1664
01:26:22,079 --> 01:26:24,760
under aware that the unaware that the defendants had correctly

1665
01:26:24,920 --> 01:26:32,520
manipulated the outcome of these games. Is this going to

1666
01:26:32,920 --> 01:26:35,479
Is this, I guess you're saying, is how outraged are

1667
01:26:35,479 --> 01:26:37,800
we supposed to be? Not? How is this going to

1668
01:26:37,880 --> 01:26:39,600
keep on? Are we gonna hear? Am I gonna be

1669
01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:40,840
doing the news at noon in the next couple of

1670
01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:43,199
years and we're gonna heart this gambling scheme, that gambling scheme,

1671
01:26:43,399 --> 01:26:45,000
or is at some points the fire is gonna be

1672
01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:47,079
stamped out. Someone let me give you something that's really

1673
01:26:47,119 --> 01:26:52,680
gonna bother you, Okay, because gambling is so intertwined now

1674
01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:57,760
with college in pro sports. Somebody's gonna throw a game

1675
01:26:58,319 --> 01:27:01,760
that's going to be a star in involving a very

1676
01:27:02,359 --> 01:27:06,680
very no I said, a star. It's going to involve

1677
01:27:06,760 --> 01:27:10,640
a very important event, a college national championship, a Final four,

1678
01:27:10,800 --> 01:27:14,319
an NFL playoff game. I really hope I'm wrong about this.

1679
01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:21,279
But unless these sports organizations have these twenty four to

1680
01:27:21,359 --> 01:27:25,000
seven surveillance on these kids and these athletes, how are

1681
01:27:25,039 --> 01:27:27,720
you I don't know. I just I'm definitely afraid this

1682
01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:30,840
is going to only not say, give us more cases,

1683
01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:33,159
but the next time we hear about this, it could

1684
01:27:33,159 --> 01:27:35,279
be about something that's much more magnified because of the

1685
01:27:35,319 --> 01:27:37,279
importance of the game and the importance of the athlete

1686
01:27:37,319 --> 01:27:40,880
and who it is. I hope I'm wrong. Yeah, I can't.

1687
01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:42,319
I can't rule anything out. I have to be open

1688
01:27:42,359 --> 01:27:45,000
minded about everything because I didn't think that the gambling scheme.

1689
01:27:45,119 --> 01:27:49,199
I underestimated the greed of these gamblers and these schemers. Yeah,

1690
01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:53,359
because as what we talked about, like once once everybody's

1691
01:27:53,439 --> 01:27:55,399
going on, Matt, don't you think it's red flags of

1692
01:27:55,439 --> 01:27:57,560
the sports book when they're getting a flood of activity

1693
01:27:57,640 --> 01:28:02,000
on the LaSalle game. Yeah, it's a red flag. So

1694
01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:04,720
I want to say, are they going to wizen up

1695
01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:06,800
and not do this anymore? I want to say yes,

1696
01:28:06,960 --> 01:28:11,640
But the logic, the greed has defied the logic. So

1697
01:28:11,760 --> 01:28:15,279
I just to buy a product of a society. We

1698
01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:18,279
cheated our companies. We steal money from our company, embezz

1699
01:28:18,319 --> 01:28:20,640
the rs, we steal from. We try to get away

1700
01:28:20,640 --> 01:28:24,279
from stuff from the IRS. I know, we're always trying

1701
01:28:24,760 --> 01:28:29,079
to put more money in our checking account. We just

1702
01:28:29,159 --> 01:28:33,039
are by any means. And again, if you're an athlete,

1703
01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:35,920
and these athletes and I look, I live part of

1704
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:37,920
this world, they think they're immune from stuff. And as

1705
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:42,079
long as you said, you're also dealing with the twenty

1706
01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:45,279
at this point, these college kids nineteen twenty year old

1707
01:28:45,439 --> 01:28:48,640
very naive. When you put thirty thousand dollars in front

1708
01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:50,680
of a lasal player, that's a lot of money. Or

1709
01:28:51,399 --> 01:28:53,960
as in the case that you have got some gambling

1710
01:28:54,119 --> 01:28:55,640
and you need to make it up and you don't

1711
01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:57,319
have the cash to do so, I would throw this

1712
01:28:57,359 --> 01:28:59,560
show for thirty g's. You've been throwing the show for

1713
01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:02,560
sixteen years. Yeah, they paid me. It used to be great, dude,

1714
01:29:03,319 --> 01:29:05,039
Oh well, what else you got?

1715
01:29:05,439 --> 01:29:05,560
Speaker 3: Uh?

1716
01:29:05,720 --> 01:29:08,840
Speaker 1: Elsewhere in the news at noon Man a recent news

1717
01:29:09,119 --> 01:29:14,000
on the World Baseball Classic front Clayton Kershaw going to

1718
01:29:14,079 --> 01:29:18,399
pitch for the United States of America and Alex Bretman

1719
01:29:20,279 --> 01:29:23,920
is going to play for Team USA, the newly minted

1720
01:29:24,039 --> 01:29:27,479
Chicago cub who, by the way, I think you did.

1721
01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:28,319
Speaker 2: Was that a good feeling?

1722
01:29:28,399 --> 01:29:29,880
Speaker 1: Did you put your name on it that no Astro

1723
01:29:29,920 --> 01:29:33,119
would play in the WBC. I did not say that either. No,

1724
01:29:33,279 --> 01:29:34,960
I didn't want an Astro to play. Did I even

1725
01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:37,239
say it? Maybe you rore it down, didn't you. I

1726
01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:40,079
gotta find check the files. Please tell me I'm right

1727
01:29:40,119 --> 01:29:42,159
about this. You know what. This is wrong. I shouldn't

1728
01:29:42,159 --> 01:29:44,279
be bringing up all your past errors and failures. It's

1729
01:29:44,319 --> 01:29:45,920
not right. I'm gonna try, you know, I'm gonna try

1730
01:29:45,920 --> 01:29:47,920
to better any You bring up the errors regularly. You

1731
01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:50,159
never bring up the U You know why, because you

1732
01:29:50,279 --> 01:29:52,680
really you launched a whole character off of one prediction.

1733
01:29:52,800 --> 01:29:54,479
So I was like, you know what, somebody's gotta bring

1734
01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:58,600
this guy down to earth. It was such an amazing prediction. Know,

1735
01:30:00,199 --> 01:30:02,039
listen to me now, I am not a great predictor.

1736
01:30:02,119 --> 01:30:04,960
I'm an analyst, and I'm most important an insider. Yes,

1737
01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:08,199
and very humble about all of the above. Yeah, okay,

1738
01:30:08,279 --> 01:30:11,520
So Breggy is going to play for the WBC and

1739
01:30:11,800 --> 01:30:16,840
Team USA, not Team Israel. Congratulations to him, we're a

1740
01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:21,399
number three for the Chicago Cubs. Yes, okay, let's keep

1741
01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:24,399
it with some baseball news, Matt, Now, this is a

1742
01:30:24,600 --> 01:30:28,000
believe him or not when it comes to John Hayman. Yes, Dush,

1743
01:30:28,720 --> 01:30:31,760
he still has air Arson Judge going to the San

1744
01:30:31,760 --> 01:30:37,399
Francisco Giants. I think that's not nice. Folks involved, Say

1745
01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:40,439
a deal for number one free agent Kyle Tucker. This

1746
01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:42,479
was posted at six point thirty this morning, could come

1747
01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:46,800
as soon as today. X teammates guess he'd prefer Toronto

1748
01:30:47,000 --> 01:30:51,039
over an even bigger market and like spring near Tampa.

1749
01:30:51,760 --> 01:30:55,199
So I guess Toronto springs near Tampa. No, spring training

1750
01:30:55,239 --> 01:30:58,039
is in Duneaton and it's a suburb of Tampa. Okay,

1751
01:30:58,720 --> 01:31:01,520
the Mets offered a fifty million dollars a year deal.

1752
01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:04,960
Dodgers are used to winning. Anyone else is a major upset.

1753
01:31:05,319 --> 01:31:12,640
So Mets, Dodgers, Toronto looking like the favorites for Kyle Tucker. Uh,

1754
01:31:12,760 --> 01:31:15,319
don't ask me to up the bet, but I also

1755
01:31:15,359 --> 01:31:16,880
don't want to lower the bet. I'm gonna tell you

1756
01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:19,319
right now. I don't think the years are as big

1757
01:31:19,399 --> 01:31:21,119
of a thing to him as it is to you.

1758
01:31:21,359 --> 01:31:24,760
I think it's about the per year money the AAV Yeah, yeah,

1759
01:31:24,800 --> 01:31:26,640
but I mean you also want long what's better four

1760
01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:29,520
hundred million dollars or two hundred million dollars. I think

1761
01:31:29,640 --> 01:31:30,840
if he wants to bet on him and so, he

1762
01:31:30,880 --> 01:31:32,920
could absolutely do a short term opt out deal. He

1763
01:31:32,960 --> 01:31:34,840
had the injuries last year. He had a great season,

1764
01:31:35,239 --> 01:31:37,039
like you had no shot when he was like ops

1765
01:31:37,079 --> 01:31:42,000
in two hundred and fifty ops plus. I mean then

1766
01:31:42,079 --> 01:31:43,439
he got hurt. Then he got hurt, and he was

1767
01:31:43,479 --> 01:31:46,960
playing hurt on his calf injury and had a mid postseason.

1768
01:31:47,119 --> 01:31:49,079
I'm sad, sad for you.

1769
01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:49,920
Speaker 5: Sad.

1770
01:31:50,239 --> 01:31:51,920
Speaker 1: That's okay. The about you meal is gonna taste good

1771
01:31:51,920 --> 01:31:54,600
no matter what sweeter when the check comes your way. Yeah,

1772
01:31:54,600 --> 01:31:56,640
when the chick comes back, you know what, I'm gonna

1773
01:31:56,640 --> 01:31:58,000
try to put that out of my mind. I'm trying

1774
01:31:58,039 --> 01:31:59,560
to enjoy the meal for what it is, and then

1775
01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:01,000
then when the yet comes, I'll be sad. You know,

1776
01:32:01,039 --> 01:32:03,119
we're going to do Jonathan during the entire meal. We're

1777
01:32:03,159 --> 01:32:06,039
going to we're going to live stream it, live stream

1778
01:32:06,039 --> 01:32:09,920
the entire dinner. What if I win? So that's fine,

1779
01:32:10,239 --> 01:32:12,600
but when people we continue to order, would you like

1780
01:32:12,680 --> 01:32:15,000
some more wine? Yes? Would you like to make that

1781
01:32:15,079 --> 01:32:18,840
a fried rice compared to a white rice. Absolutely, would

1782
01:32:18,920 --> 01:32:20,840
you like it to your stake to be a surn

1783
01:32:21,039 --> 01:32:25,720
no filet for you, sir, No, sir, we're tapping you

1784
01:32:25,800 --> 01:32:29,359
out of cube steak. Oh the rules certainly change in

1785
01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:32,319
your bank paying for it. Well, your piggy bang is

1786
01:32:32,319 --> 01:32:37,119
bigger than mine, that's true. I mean I can't knocket that.

1787
01:32:39,119 --> 01:32:41,199
It's probably close when you get the house payment in kids.

1788
01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:47,560
That's why I'm working these two jobs. Sure. H twelve

1789
01:32:47,680 --> 01:32:50,159
twelve on Sports Talk seven and we mentioned Rockets against

1790
01:32:50,439 --> 01:32:52,920
Oklahoma City tonight. What a great first game we had

1791
01:32:53,039 --> 01:32:57,720
that that was October twenty first. It feels forever and

1792
01:32:57,720 --> 01:33:00,760
a day ago. It was a long long time ago

1793
01:33:02,319 --> 01:33:04,760
and a must win game for the Houston Rocket. It

1794
01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:06,039
says who you, I don't know.

1795
01:33:06,119 --> 01:33:06,600
Speaker 7: I like it.

1796
01:33:06,760 --> 01:33:08,800
Speaker 1: Probably somebody is saying that, hey, I would love for

1797
01:33:08,880 --> 01:33:10,920
the Rockets. Just you know, by the way, Denver one

1798
01:33:11,000 --> 01:33:15,359
last night against Dallas and Denver didn't have Nicola Jokicic

1799
01:33:15,479 --> 01:33:17,840
that all you do is win. They're in the two

1800
01:33:17,920 --> 01:33:20,199
seed now with the Spurs losing a couple in a row.

1801
01:33:20,199 --> 01:33:22,359
Spurs are human And by the way, the Oklahoma City

1802
01:33:22,399 --> 01:33:24,199
Thunder are human these days. By the way, they're in

1803
01:33:24,199 --> 01:33:26,439
the two seat, you're only three games behind them. So oh,

1804
01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:28,960
that's easy make let's go make it up in days

1805
01:33:29,560 --> 01:33:31,640
twelve thirteen of The Matt Thomas Show with Ross if

1806
01:33:31,640 --> 01:33:32,880
you'd like to be a part of our show to

1807
01:33:32,920 --> 01:33:35,800
get into some Texans conversation seven one three two one

1808
01:33:35,920 --> 01:33:37,439
two five seven nine, if you want to get in

1809
01:33:37,520 --> 01:33:43,920
some rockets talk and Kyle Tucker where's he going? And

1810
01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:47,000
more important, how long is it going for? And you

1811
01:33:47,079 --> 01:33:48,479
know we have not done a while. We're not even

1812
01:33:48,560 --> 01:33:50,960
worried about Jake Myers. I have a quick question estak

1813
01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:52,960
Parade is either what's going on with Verizon? Is it

1814
01:33:53,079 --> 01:33:55,920
still down? I'm not seeing a lot of tweets about it.

1815
01:33:55,920 --> 01:33:59,520
I have a memi me account, so yeah, me too.

1816
01:33:59,800 --> 01:34:02,359
So all right, Well, I hope you guys are okay

1817
01:34:02,359 --> 01:34:03,720
with Andy, you Verise and people trying. Is that the

1818
01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:06,279
reason people can't call him today becausey're all Verizon subscribers?

1819
01:34:06,760 --> 01:34:09,079
It could be I've just figured it out. Seven one

1820
01:34:09,159 --> 01:34:11,359
three two five seven ninety. Hey, if you're an A

1821
01:34:11,479 --> 01:34:13,960
T and tier, come on in early. You're from Google Voice,

1822
01:34:14,760 --> 01:34:17,800
do we want that? Sure? Why not call us on

1823
01:34:17,840 --> 01:34:20,439
a zoom. We tried that with Kevin Harlan didn't work out.

1824
01:34:20,479 --> 01:34:22,359
Did we ever get him on the zoom, by the way, Jonathan,

1825
01:34:22,439 --> 01:34:24,000
or was it all strictly phone call? He was on

1826
01:34:24,039 --> 01:34:26,079
the zoom. We could hear, but he sounded his microphone

1827
01:34:26,159 --> 01:34:28,920
was it didn't sound good? By the way. Kevin Harley

1828
01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:30,760
was in the other room on the call tonight. As

1829
01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:33,119
a matter of fact. Oh, with prime video. Yes he's

1830
01:34:33,119 --> 01:34:35,560
in the building. Yeah, you gonna see him. Yes, maybe

1831
01:34:35,600 --> 01:34:40,079
I will come to the arena. We've only met him once, sweetheart. Yeah,

1832
01:34:40,760 --> 01:34:42,039
you should come to the game because they're gonna be

1833
01:34:42,079 --> 01:34:44,640
filming me doing my pregame activities too. No, I don't

1834
01:34:44,640 --> 01:34:46,800
want to take your shine, like you said, I'm actually

1835
01:34:46,920 --> 01:34:49,079
leaving when they get here. No, you're staying, You're it's

1836
01:34:49,159 --> 01:34:53,359
Matt Thomas Show, rosst Thomas Show. Yeah, he didn't put

1837
01:34:53,359 --> 01:34:55,880
a nice sweatsuit. Now it's good. I didn't even try to.

1838
01:34:56,239 --> 01:34:58,399
I am matching. You are matching. I do got the

1839
01:34:58,439 --> 01:35:01,840
fit on. It's it's not fitting that well. Uh. Twelve

1840
01:35:01,920 --> 01:35:04,560
fourteen on Sports Talk seven ninety seven one three two

1841
01:35:04,640 --> 01:35:06,560
one two five seven nine. If you want to chime

1842
01:35:06,640 --> 01:35:09,800
in seven one three, two, one two five, seven nine zero.

1843
01:35:09,840 --> 01:35:22,119
I want to that's one. We'll give another one. And

1844
01:35:22,479 --> 01:35:25,199
that feels about it, probably because it's not really breaking.

1845
01:35:25,319 --> 01:35:25,359
Speaker 5: No.

1846
01:35:25,520 --> 01:35:30,119
Speaker 1: Nico Collins of Texans practice today. Okay, yeah, he done,

1847
01:35:30,159 --> 01:35:32,479
he got he go, and I said, I got a

1848
01:35:32,479 --> 01:35:35,840
feeling we weren't going to see him a Super Bowl Sunday. Now,

1849
01:35:35,920 --> 01:35:37,840
whether he's in our house watching a game with us

1850
01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:40,199
or he's actually on the field playing, I hope you're

1851
01:35:40,239 --> 01:35:42,079
wrong about that. Did he haven't? He hadn't had a

1852
01:35:42,159 --> 01:35:43,920
king What was it? He missed a game or two

1853
01:35:43,960 --> 01:35:46,279
this year? Right, But it wasn't concussion, was it?

1854
01:35:46,479 --> 01:35:46,520
Speaker 5: No?

1855
01:35:46,600 --> 01:35:48,520
Speaker 1: I don't believe. So he was a healthy scratch in

1856
01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:51,279
the last game. Oh yeah, it was one game in

1857
01:35:51,359 --> 01:35:53,880
one game maybe for something, and then a healthy scratch. Okay,

1858
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:58,119
I'll be more with you, not more with you, because

1859
01:35:58,119 --> 01:36:00,359
we don't know we're right, we're not, and we're not

1860
01:36:00,439 --> 01:36:05,079
his neurologist. But when it's multiple, for sure, multiple weeks,

1861
01:36:05,319 --> 01:36:09,840
it's more likely. So hopefully one week missed for Colin,

1862
01:36:10,199 --> 01:36:14,319
the Nico Collins, they can sneak past the Patriots. Sneak

1863
01:36:15,640 --> 01:36:19,640
You can't say that. Why there's no sneaking around the Patriots.

1864
01:36:20,119 --> 01:36:22,279
You're gonna beat them. You're not gonna sneak around them.

1865
01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:26,159
You're not gonna catch them off guard. Oh, Stoppy, if

1866
01:36:26,159 --> 01:36:28,600
you've heard this before, Texans win ugly in New England.

1867
01:36:28,680 --> 01:36:30,640
That's not a sneak though, and ugly win is sneaking

1868
01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:36,119
by that's okay, Santa Samantas for two to six? Man,

1869
01:36:36,199 --> 01:36:39,720
come on, oh what are you talking about? Come on now, man,

1870
01:36:40,720 --> 01:36:45,399
come on man. I hate them. Okay, I hate them,

1871
01:36:46,520 --> 01:36:49,560
I hate them, I hate them, I hate them. Go ahead,

1872
01:36:53,479 --> 01:36:55,399
you put me at a loss. This isn't not normal?

1873
01:36:55,960 --> 01:37:01,319
What were we talking about? Nico Collins? Yes, so I

1874
01:37:01,439 --> 01:37:04,319
know some people counter argue that, hey, the now CJ.

1875
01:37:04,399 --> 01:37:06,439
Stroud doesn't have to lock into Nico and he can

1876
01:37:06,479 --> 01:37:09,680
distribute the ball everywhere and stuff like that, because there

1877
01:37:09,760 --> 01:37:14,079
are some fantasy not fantasy football, the NFL analysts who

1878
01:37:14,319 --> 01:37:17,359
chart and talk about CJ. Stroud relying too heavily on

1879
01:37:17,439 --> 01:37:20,039
his first read stuff like that. But when you're running

1880
01:37:20,079 --> 01:37:21,800
for your life, you're going to rely on your first read.

1881
01:37:21,840 --> 01:37:25,159
So that's the counter argument. But anyways, Nico Collins out,

1882
01:37:25,960 --> 01:37:29,079
does that mean? Could this maybe be a blessing in disguise,

1883
01:37:29,119 --> 01:37:30,720
some people like to argue because then he can spread

1884
01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:32,760
the ball around where it is Higgins and it is

1885
01:37:32,840 --> 01:37:35,600
Kirk and it is Schultz, and it is checking down

1886
01:37:35,680 --> 01:37:37,479
to the running backs and not getting locked in on Nko.

1887
01:37:37,840 --> 01:37:40,159
I think it's a blessing in disguise. I think it's

1888
01:37:41,680 --> 01:37:44,239
we're not used to it, but we've adapted to it.

1889
01:37:45,560 --> 01:37:48,960
Because again, yeah, he had a good season, did 'n ico.

1890
01:37:49,239 --> 01:37:51,479
He's still a wr one in this league. Eleven hundred

1891
01:37:51,560 --> 01:37:55,640
yards in fifteen games. Very good. But will you put

1892
01:37:55,720 --> 01:37:58,720
together the super highlight reel of the Houston Texans. First

1893
01:37:58,720 --> 01:38:02,840
of all, it's ninety percent defense. Yeah, and frankly, it's

1894
01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:04,960
five percent Kymie fairbrand. And that's five percent the rest

1895
01:38:04,960 --> 01:38:08,760
of the offense. It's Nole's progression, It's Higgins progression.

1896
01:38:09,479 --> 01:38:09,920
Speaker 7: It is.

1897
01:38:12,880 --> 01:38:17,279
Speaker 1: What he marks his progression. It is I can't the

1898
01:38:17,319 --> 01:38:19,520
Titan's name. I'm dropping. I can't remember his name. Its

1899
01:38:19,560 --> 01:38:22,079
Overton Schultzdalton Schultz. It's Dalton. I was going to call

1900
01:38:22,119 --> 01:38:26,600
him Dallas. That's Dallas clarkas Clark, It's Dalton Schultz. Continued progression.

1901
01:38:26,600 --> 01:38:29,279
This boll me. Remember when remember when Dalton Schultz got

1902
01:38:29,319 --> 01:38:30,800
his deal three years ago, people were like, wigging the

1903
01:38:30,920 --> 01:38:33,840
f out, that's been money we'd spent. It really has been.

1904
01:38:35,199 --> 01:38:37,680
He's been durable. He plays, he catches, He had very

1905
01:38:37,720 --> 01:38:40,920
few drops, doesn't commit nearly as many penalties as he

1906
01:38:41,039 --> 01:38:44,479
used to. He's been the I want to say, the

1907
01:38:44,600 --> 01:38:47,439
unsung hero, but he's been the nice security blanket that

1908
01:38:47,560 --> 01:38:49,800
that CJ has been able to check. This really come

1909
01:38:49,800 --> 01:38:51,640
along in the second half of the season, especially in

1910
01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:54,319
the in the play action game. He's been especially effective.

1911
01:38:54,840 --> 01:38:58,920
Uh Nico Collins receiving yards per game. I have him

1912
01:38:59,239 --> 01:39:03,359
at eighth in football behind you know, all the top

1913
01:39:03,439 --> 01:39:06,520
names you would think of, Ceedee, Lamb, Drake, lynnon Monro, Jamar,

1914
01:39:06,600 --> 01:39:10,399
Chase Pickens, Jackson Smith and Jig buta Pukinakua. So he's

1915
01:39:11,079 --> 01:39:13,760
in the eighth. That's great. I had a Tree McBride

1916
01:39:13,760 --> 01:39:18,359
a lave rush. She rises eight flowers yep. So yeah,

1917
01:39:18,920 --> 01:39:22,479
he's important. Catches the ball, runs good routes. I don't

1918
01:39:22,479 --> 01:39:25,119
know what is run blocking is like, don't particularly care.

1919
01:39:25,239 --> 01:39:29,920
That's good enough. He's physical, yard to catch is good.

1920
01:39:30,000 --> 01:39:34,000
He's no Kevin Walter, but who isn't was the greatest,

1921
01:39:34,319 --> 01:39:37,119
the greatest blocking wide receiver of all time, all time.

1922
01:39:37,880 --> 01:39:39,920
You get you guys in Houston went nuts ro speaking

1923
01:39:39,920 --> 01:39:43,159
of twenty sixteen. You love Kevin Walter or Kevin Walter's

1924
01:39:43,159 --> 01:39:44,359
spending on which you want to add and ask to

1925
01:39:44,399 --> 01:39:48,600
his name or not? Good times. He's a good blocker,

1926
01:39:48,640 --> 01:39:50,000
that's what he's on the team. He probably wasn't there

1927
01:39:50,000 --> 01:39:52,960
in twenty sixteen. That probably was fast time. Probably. Yeah. Well,

1928
01:39:52,960 --> 01:39:55,640
I hope he's doing well wherever he is. But Nico

1929
01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:59,560
Collins being missed is significant for sure. Okay, somebody said

1930
01:39:59,600 --> 01:40:01,640
this isn't a goes it was a concussion. Okay, I

1931
01:40:01,800 --> 01:40:02,359
wasn't sure.

1932
01:40:02,640 --> 01:40:02,960
Speaker 7: Let me go.

1933
01:40:03,720 --> 01:40:05,840
Speaker 1: No, but no, if it's listeners a get it right.

1934
01:40:05,880 --> 01:40:07,520
I mean they're not gonna send us wrong if love

1935
01:40:07,560 --> 01:40:10,000
to jump it up, correct us. So it's good. Yeah,

1936
01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:12,640
that's fine. I mean, hey, I was wrong. I wasn't sure. No,

1937
01:40:12,760 --> 01:40:18,199
that's okay. Uh, you know we've had so much conversation.

1938
01:40:18,359 --> 01:40:20,439
And in the way that his head hit the ground

1939
01:40:20,680 --> 01:40:24,960
at well, he's behinds field twice, not in the sure

1940
01:40:25,399 --> 01:40:28,479
a for sure. Yeah, and that field looks nasty, right,

1941
01:40:28,600 --> 01:40:30,119
I don't care if it was an eighty three degree

1942
01:40:30,199 --> 01:40:31,880
day or it would have the field just doesn't look

1943
01:40:31,880 --> 01:40:33,600
like it's ever had real grass on that team. I

1944
01:40:33,600 --> 01:40:35,399
don't know why they do it, but that's a different issue.

1945
01:40:35,399 --> 01:40:39,359
That's that's their own issues. Did we just thirty years

1946
01:40:39,399 --> 01:40:44,359
ago just pretending concussions didn't exist in the NFL? Yeah,

1947
01:40:44,560 --> 01:40:46,359
you give some guys some smelling salts and send him

1948
01:40:46,359 --> 01:40:50,720
on his way. Did you see the smelling salt video

1949
01:40:50,800 --> 01:40:53,640
of Jalen Petrie? Do you remember when Brett Farv what

1950
01:40:53,760 --> 01:40:55,600
was like a Monday his dad died or whatever. It

1951
01:40:55,680 --> 01:40:58,439
was like a Monday night or something against a different stories. No, No,

1952
01:40:58,640 --> 01:41:00,720
he his dadad He played again and he got the

1953
01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:03,279
concussion and didn't remember throwing the pass that. I don't

1954
01:41:03,319 --> 01:41:04,840
know about that part, but I remember him playing. Is

1955
01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:07,399
that if I'm blending two stories or if it's one story.

1956
01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:09,359
Either way, I don't remember if the dad passed, let's

1957
01:41:09,359 --> 01:41:11,439
just throw that part out. He got a concussion and

1958
01:41:11,680 --> 01:41:13,920
like completely got knocked out, came back in the game,

1959
01:41:14,439 --> 01:41:16,800
and then after the game said he didn't remember throwing

1960
01:41:16,880 --> 01:41:21,600
the game winning touchdown. It's like against the Raiders or something. Now,

1961
01:41:21,680 --> 01:41:23,319
I told you this before. I mentioned a few times,

1962
01:41:23,319 --> 01:41:25,840
but the audience always changes the only time I've ever

1963
01:41:25,880 --> 01:41:28,239
remember covering the Texans and worrying about a concussion was

1964
01:41:28,279 --> 01:41:31,119
when Chris Brown made a special team's tackle and I

1965
01:41:31,199 --> 01:41:32,800
went to talk to Chris and the locker room after

1966
01:41:32,880 --> 01:41:36,239
the game, and he said, hey, did we win. Yeah,

1967
01:41:36,239 --> 01:41:38,119
I was against the Giants in two thousand and four.

1968
01:41:40,479 --> 01:41:43,520
He's like, yeah, I don't remember throwing that pass twenty

1969
01:41:43,560 --> 01:41:45,960
eight yard touchdown, game winning touchdown to Javon Walker. But

1970
01:41:46,000 --> 01:41:48,640
I mean, let's put this twenty years ago. It's not

1971
01:41:48,720 --> 01:41:51,560
that long ago. Our audience, which is, you know, between

1972
01:41:51,720 --> 01:41:54,000
twenty five and fifty four generally speaking, maybe a little

1973
01:41:54,000 --> 01:41:56,800
bit older in some aspects. I remember the olders of

1974
01:41:56,840 --> 01:41:58,359
the nineties. What I mean, it was thirty years ago,

1975
01:41:58,359 --> 01:42:02,199
but it wasn't fifty. I mean, we have a large

1976
01:42:02,239 --> 01:42:04,560
collection of our audience that remembers Heywood, Jefferies and Ernest

1977
01:42:04,560 --> 01:42:08,119
Givens and Drew Hill. We you tell me all those

1978
01:42:08,199 --> 01:42:10,319
guys didn't take nasty spills. I don't remember. I don't

1979
01:42:10,319 --> 01:42:13,439
remember Ernest Givens. Yeah, they missing serious periods of time

1980
01:42:13,479 --> 01:42:15,399
because his head hit the urf of the astronom, which

1981
01:42:15,439 --> 01:42:17,000
sucked at the time, and they would play through it.

1982
01:42:17,000 --> 01:42:19,399
They would literally go check back into the same game. Yeah,

1983
01:42:19,680 --> 01:42:23,840
it's nuts and this is good. It's now the on

1984
01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:27,199
field product. You know, it's God gonna be good about

1985
01:42:27,279 --> 01:42:30,560
Nico Collins. But for the health of these human beings.

1986
01:42:30,640 --> 01:42:32,960
Nico Hollins is a human being. He's not just here

1987
01:42:33,039 --> 01:42:38,199
for entertainment. He's a person. It's good for them, all right.

1988
01:42:38,239 --> 01:42:40,159
Twelve twenty nine, it is Matt and Ross with you

1989
01:42:40,279 --> 01:42:41,720
till two o'clock today. What is believe it or not?

1990
01:42:41,760 --> 01:42:43,359
At one fifty I'm about to ask you the same thing.

1991
01:42:43,439 --> 01:42:49,560
This show is blowing by two thousand and six. Oh okay,

1992
01:42:50,159 --> 01:42:52,319
it was a concussion against the Seahawks. Yes, multiple people

1993
01:42:52,319 --> 01:42:54,479
are telling me, okay, good So so yeah, you give

1994
01:42:54,520 --> 01:42:58,399
out the shoutouts to the to Brandon and j f Yeah,

1995
01:42:59,079 --> 01:43:02,520
appreciate both of you. So yeah, that leads me towards more.

1996
01:43:02,520 --> 01:43:04,840
You're gonna be right. If they make it to the

1997
01:43:04,880 --> 01:43:07,359
Super Bowl, it'd be that long until Nico Collins came back.

1998
01:43:07,439 --> 01:43:07,640
Speaker 10: Yeah.

1999
01:43:08,039 --> 01:43:10,600
Speaker 1: If you're a Nico Collins fan, you're going to see

2000
01:43:10,640 --> 01:43:12,399

2039
01:44:57,479 --> 01:45:00,439
Seven one three, two one two five, seven, eight thirty one,

2040
01:45:00,479 --> 01:45:03,079
it's a Matt Thomashield Ross. This is Sports Talk seven ninety,

2041
01:45:07,840 --> 01:45:10,279
Man and Ross with you, twelve thirty five on Sports

2042
01:45:10,359 --> 01:45:14,880
Talk seven ninety. Our friend Pedro said, Verizon is finally

2043
01:45:14,960 --> 01:45:18,079
back as of nine o'clock last night, eight hours of outage.

2044
01:45:18,119 --> 01:45:20,880
They offered you twenty dollars for compensation on our bill.

2045
01:45:24,199 --> 01:45:27,399
You know there'll be a class action lawsuit coming. I

2046
01:45:27,560 --> 01:45:29,359
missed a phone call that could have helped me with

2047
01:45:30,399 --> 01:45:33,560
a medication, B finding my wife, see my job. I'm

2048
01:45:33,560 --> 01:45:37,760
as suing you? Or can they do that? Probably legally?

2049
01:45:38,119 --> 01:45:42,119
Probably there's a user agreement that outages are gonna happen. Yeah,

2050
01:45:42,720 --> 01:45:46,439
whenever you agree to their services. Yeah, they always get

2051
01:45:46,439 --> 01:45:48,920
you in those terms of service. I think really, frankly,

2052
01:45:49,720 --> 01:45:52,880
the satellite TV providers that knock out channels for a

2053
01:45:52,960 --> 01:45:54,880
length of time, and the satellite and the and the

2054
01:45:55,479 --> 01:45:58,960
phone companies, they don't, they don't, they don't go overboard.

2055
01:45:59,439 --> 01:46:02,760
Give them fifth Let it make him feel good. But

2056
01:46:02,880 --> 01:46:04,840
my guess they're thinking of twenty hours and fifty hours.

2057
01:46:04,880 --> 01:46:06,039
But I make that big of a difference to the

2058
01:46:06,079 --> 01:46:10,800
average person. So all right, Madden ross with you on

2059

Speaker 9: Man, thank you you and Rons for having me on.

2079
01:47:09,720 --> 01:47:12,880
You know, we need to get excited. We are three

2080
01:47:13,079 --> 01:47:19,039
games from a world championship in football, and you know

2081
01:47:19,159 --> 01:47:21,880
he's got the best defense and all we have to

2082
01:47:21,960 --> 01:47:23,680
do is hold it together on offense. We need to

2083
01:47:23,720 --> 01:47:26,199
get behind these guys and really talk it up in

2084
01:47:26,279 --> 01:47:30,159
this city, in this town. We're that close, can y'all?

2085
01:47:30,239 --> 01:47:31,560
Speaker 5: I know y'all do a great.

2086
01:47:31,479 --> 01:47:34,039
Speaker 9: Job that you's not want to pass it on the off.

2087
01:47:34,319 --> 01:47:37,000
If we can get this town fired up in some way,

2088
01:47:38,239 --> 01:47:40,840
we need to get fired up about these guys.

2089
01:47:42,279 --> 01:47:44,960
Speaker 1: I gotta be honest, Richard, I believe the city's pretty

2090
01:47:45,000 --> 01:47:47,960
fired up. I don't hear a lot of hesitancy now

2091
01:47:48,079 --> 01:47:51,720
as their concern. Yeah, but I think people, especially if

2092
01:47:51,760 --> 01:47:53,720
we get closer to this kickoff, which would be Sunday

2093
01:47:53,720 --> 01:47:56,439
at two o'clock, the city of Houston's gonna lose their minds.

2094
01:47:56,800 --> 01:47:58,720
You know how I can tell you that, Richard. I

2095
01:47:58,800 --> 01:48:01,159
want you to go to any Ta and watch a

2096
01:48:01,239 --> 01:48:03,119
bunch of dorks go to a sports bar and then

2097
01:48:03,159 --> 01:48:05,920
a reporter who's got Texans gear on going look where

2098
01:48:06,000 --> 01:48:07,800
I am, look at the man on the street. You'll

2099
01:48:07,840 --> 01:48:10,319
see those stories left and right. People are gonna start

2100
01:48:10,319 --> 01:48:12,079
to get more and more excited. There's there is a

2101
01:48:12,159 --> 01:48:14,960
certain level of excitement. It's gonna be ramped up by Sunday.

2102
01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:15,600
Trust me on this.

2103
01:48:16,399 --> 01:48:16,880
Speaker 13: I love it.

2104
01:48:17,119 --> 01:48:17,640
Speaker 5: I love it.

2105
01:48:18,079 --> 01:48:21,000
Speaker 9: Thank you, hey, thank you, thank you guys for reporting.

2106
01:48:21,079 --> 01:48:21,479
I love you.

2107
01:48:21,600 --> 01:48:23,439
Speaker 1: Yes, thank you very nice here. I know you're a

2108
01:48:23,439 --> 01:48:26,119
great reporter, Matt, Thank you the Texans Insider. Yeah, I

2109
01:48:26,199 --> 01:48:27,720
was a big city wings as I said on Monday

2110
01:48:27,760 --> 01:48:29,920
place was packed. Yeah, I don't. I don't have to

2111
01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:32,840
put Texans fans. This is look, we are on Avenue

2112
01:48:32,880 --> 01:48:35,399
to talk about everything good and bad about a sports team.

2113
01:48:35,600 --> 01:48:37,640
We hell, when the outstar is winning a World Series,

2114
01:48:37,680 --> 01:48:39,399
we were worried about George Peerer, lee Off, you know

2115
01:48:39,399 --> 01:48:41,600
what I mean. This is what we do. We we

2116
01:48:42,079 --> 01:48:44,680
we break it down, not necessarily exce's and o's, but

2117
01:48:44,800 --> 01:48:48,760
we discuss layers to everything. So it's not gonna you

2118
01:48:48,840 --> 01:48:50,880
just can't come on the air and go you' all excited.

2119
01:48:51,399 --> 01:48:54,640
Segment two, you all excited, segment three, y'all excited. I mean,

2120
01:48:55,000 --> 01:48:56,680
you may find some spots to do that, but we're

2121
01:48:56,680 --> 01:48:59,119
gonna We're gonna try to halfway intelligent and talk about

2122
01:48:59,119 --> 01:49:01,359
the game and so there are issues to it, but no,

2123
01:49:01,600 --> 01:49:05,640
I absolutely believe people are excited. Yeah, I think so.

2124
01:49:05,840 --> 01:49:07,520
I think there's been a lot more buzzer around the city,

2125
01:49:07,880 --> 01:49:10,760
and I think, you know, I haven't felt or at

2126
01:49:10,840 --> 01:49:13,720
least as much on Twitter or wherever with callers as well,

2127
01:49:14,640 --> 01:49:18,039
like they're going up to New England in the divisional

2128
01:49:18,159 --> 01:49:20,600
round or usually only you say that Texans go to

2129
01:49:20,680 --> 01:49:22,840
New England for the divisional round. We would all be like, oh,

2130
01:49:22,920 --> 01:49:24,479
this is not Here we go again to hear what

2131
01:49:24,680 --> 01:49:28,720
playoff perfectly said, here we go again. I'm not feeling that.

2132
01:49:29,159 --> 01:49:35,159
I'm not feeling that at all. Look, this is it. Literally, No,

2133
01:49:35,239 --> 01:49:37,359
I don't care what Vegas is to me. This is

2134
01:49:37,399 --> 01:49:40,840
a coin flip game. If the Patriots and Texans played

2135
01:49:40,880 --> 01:49:42,840
ten times on a neutral field, I think both teams

2136
01:49:42,880 --> 01:49:48,479
can win five times. I really do believe that neutral field. Yeah,

2137
01:49:48,520 --> 01:49:51,399
that's probably right. I want to give the Texans somebody can't.

2138
01:49:51,920 --> 01:49:53,159
If you want to say six to four ys at

2139
01:49:53,199 --> 01:49:55,720
home is probably they generally three is three at home?

2140
01:49:55,800 --> 01:49:58,279
Is the neutral field is fifty to fifty? Yeah, if

2141
01:49:58,279 --> 01:49:59,760
you put it in the middle of a stack, and

2142
01:50:00,079 --> 01:50:01,600
whether it was a dome stadium or you put them

2143
01:50:01,640 --> 01:50:06,520
in the middle of Nebraska could be. I just think

2144
01:50:06,560 --> 01:50:09,680
it's I think there's there's too many elements. Let's do

2145
01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:17,079
this quickly. Quarterback vanished Patriots running backs vantage Patriots wide receiver,

2146
01:50:17,439 --> 01:50:25,159
offensive line vantage Patriots offensive line, probablytriot No, I don't know.

2147
01:50:25,359 --> 01:50:25,880
I don't think.

2148
01:50:25,960 --> 01:50:26,000
Speaker 5: So.

2149
01:50:26,199 --> 01:50:29,119
Speaker 1: You got rookies on the left up those final rankings

2150
01:50:29,119 --> 01:50:31,479
from the season. Okay, yeah, do this, I can do it.

2151
01:50:31,760 --> 01:50:34,119
Let's do it give me the New England to pay.

2152
01:50:34,199 --> 01:50:36,840
I think you're gonna be a little disappointed. Patriots eleventh,

2153
01:50:37,039 --> 01:50:41,760
Texans twenty seventh. Okay, maybe I'm disappointed so by the

2154
01:50:41,840 --> 01:50:45,760
PFF rankings. Remember their poonhounds and give us one data point. Yes,

2155
01:50:46,079 --> 01:50:48,000
but if it's eleven to twenty seven, they're not gonna

2156
01:50:48,000 --> 01:50:48,880
get that far off.

2157
01:50:49,119 --> 01:50:49,199
Speaker 3: Uh.

2158
01:50:49,359 --> 01:50:52,680
Speaker 1: Special teams I would lean Texans, Sure, why not because

2159
01:50:52,720 --> 01:50:55,800
fair Baron has had an excellent season. Jalen Knowles the goat. Yeah,

2160
01:50:55,880 --> 01:50:58,640
Tommy Towns had booted one real bad. Yeah, I'm a

2161
01:50:58,680 --> 01:51:08,239
shaked one bad. Yeah yeah. Okay. Defensively, secondary tact Texans

2162
01:51:08,800 --> 01:51:22,239
linebackers probably Patriots, especially in coverage defensive line Texans coaching Patriots, Patriots. Okay,

2163
01:51:23,000 --> 01:51:25,560
fifty five forms of Josh McDaniels, and you're adding that

2164
01:51:25,560 --> 01:51:27,199
if you added the wholes YouTube and the whole staff,

2165
01:51:28,039 --> 01:51:31,479
the stats are your Patriots. I guess let's talk to

2166
01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:34,439
Rick on seven nine at twelve forty one, Rick, Good

2167
01:51:34,479 --> 01:51:35,079
afternoon to you.

2168
01:51:36,239 --> 01:51:42,720
Speaker 3: Hey man, Ross just got a question about CJ being

2169
01:51:43,119 --> 01:51:48,560
having max max protection or a rolling pocket form where

2170
01:51:48,720 --> 01:51:51,760
they roll them out to one side and give him

2171
01:51:51,800 --> 01:51:55,840
a little bit more room. But making him have the

2172
01:51:55,840 --> 01:52:00,319
availability to throw down the field with a longer period time,

2173
01:52:00,920 --> 01:52:05,479
and then also the option of him running because a

2174
01:52:05,520 --> 01:52:07,479
couple of times in the last game he could have

2175
01:52:07,640 --> 01:52:08,880
gotten the first down.

2176
01:52:10,000 --> 01:52:12,439
Speaker 13: Especially on that pass that he threw away in the

2177
01:52:12,479 --> 01:52:13,039
red zone.

2178
01:52:13,720 --> 01:52:16,880
Speaker 3: I'm just wondering whether or not that it's something that

2179
01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:19,439
they are probably training on well.

2180
01:52:19,640 --> 01:52:22,359
Speaker 13: This week, I think they're gonna blitz him a lot.

2181
01:52:22,479 --> 01:52:26,359
Speaker 1: Rick, did you watch the game against Pittsburgh. Yes, there

2182
01:52:26,520 --> 01:52:28,720
was at least three rollouts to the left for CJ.

2183
01:52:28,840 --> 01:52:30,800
Strouder in the game. So to answer your question, you

2184
01:52:30,880 --> 01:52:32,720
must you must have a line of communication between the

2185
01:52:32,760 --> 01:52:36,079
Texans and the and your thoughts because they rolled him out.

2186
01:52:36,479 --> 01:52:38,880
They had Blake Fisher as a sixth lineman. They do

2187
01:52:39,039 --> 01:52:41,279
a lot a lot this year. So that's around the

2188
01:52:41,399 --> 01:52:43,960
NFL is You're not getting any breaking news out there.

2189
01:52:44,159 --> 01:52:46,439
The things you want are things that are already implementing.

2190
01:52:47,840 --> 01:52:51,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think CJ just gets nervous in the

2191
01:52:51,880 --> 01:52:56,119
pocket for some reason, either doesn't like I gotta throw

2192
01:52:56,159 --> 01:52:58,560
the ball, or he doesn't take the option to run

2193
01:52:59,199 --> 01:53:01,800
and what probably can handle.

2194
01:53:02,039 --> 01:53:04,000
Speaker 1: You know what, Rick, I think he's been told not

2195
01:53:04,079 --> 01:53:08,000
to run. I really do I really, I mean, I can't.

2196
01:53:08,199 --> 01:53:10,600
No one would ever say that, because if if Demko

2197
01:53:10,640 --> 01:53:12,560
admitted that, they'd be giving up a huge component of

2198
01:53:12,640 --> 01:53:15,439
the game. I thought there was so much hesitation or

2199
01:53:15,600 --> 01:53:18,479
lack there of willing to run that I think CJ

2200
01:53:18,600 --> 01:53:19,239
has been told.

2201
01:53:19,119 --> 01:53:19,520
Speaker 6: Not to do it.

2202
01:53:20,239 --> 01:53:22,560
Speaker 1: That's how he got his concussion. Yeah, I really believe that,

2203
01:53:25,359 --> 01:53:28,000
thank you very much. Now. Doesn't mean that now if

2204
01:53:28,199 --> 01:53:30,560
if he gets a three yr game for a first down, yeah,

2205
01:53:30,600 --> 01:53:35,000
But I'm saying, as part of the offense, he is

2206
01:53:35,079 --> 01:53:38,760
looking through all of his progressions and he is going

2207
01:53:38,840 --> 01:53:42,239
to take off at the very very last second, or

2208
01:53:42,279 --> 01:53:44,880
if he's going to run, it's because he can go

2209
01:53:45,119 --> 01:53:46,760
to the weak side of the field, the short side

2210
01:53:46,760 --> 01:53:48,239
of the field, and get one yard and get out

2211
01:53:48,239 --> 01:53:51,079
of bounds. I don't think there's anything that is a

2212
01:53:51,199 --> 01:53:54,680
component of CJ's game that says, hey, if your first

2213
01:53:54,720 --> 01:53:57,159
look down the field is covered up and you can't

2214
01:53:57,199 --> 01:53:59,600
go to a safety valve, use your legs. I don't

2215
01:53:59,600 --> 01:54:01,520
think that's in the vernacular this week. I think that

2216
01:54:01,640 --> 01:54:04,560
it needs to be. I think if you want to say, yeah,

2217
01:54:05,000 --> 01:54:07,520
during the regular season, don't run as much, don't do

2218
01:54:07,560 --> 01:54:10,880
anything crazy. But when it's playoff time. It's time to

2219
01:54:10,920 --> 01:54:14,159
throw caution into win. It's time to just play and

2220
01:54:14,239 --> 01:54:16,399
be yourself and do whatever the defense is giving you.

2221
01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:19,079
Because I keep coming back to those couple of plays

2222
01:54:19,119 --> 01:54:22,319
he made against the Chargers last year that were huge,

2223
01:54:22,600 --> 01:54:24,960
where he was rolling out and running away from guys

2224
01:54:25,000 --> 01:54:27,359
and then also running down the field and getting chunks

2225
01:54:27,399 --> 01:54:30,239
of yardage. He can't It can be an element. It's

2226
01:54:30,239 --> 01:54:32,600
not something that needs to be He's not fast. I'm

2227
01:54:32,640 --> 01:54:34,640
not saying run a bunch of zone reads with him

2228
01:54:34,720 --> 01:54:38,000
tucking the ball and running, but something that he can

2229
01:54:38,439 --> 01:54:41,279
do when it is afforded to him by the defense.

2230
01:54:42,119 --> 01:54:46,279
Take what they're giving you. Take those yards. Yes, we

2231
01:54:46,319 --> 01:54:47,880
don't want you to get hurt, we don't want you

2232
01:54:47,880 --> 01:54:50,479
to get concussed. But it's the playoffs. You gotta do

2233
01:54:50,560 --> 01:54:52,399
whatever it takes. If he's not going to take those

2234
01:54:52,520 --> 01:54:54,560
yards against the Steelers, why would he do it against

2235
01:54:55,399 --> 01:54:58,079
He should have done it against the Steelers. I don't know, Ross,

2236
01:54:58,079 --> 01:55:00,720
I don't think it's I think it's it's it's either

2237
01:55:00,840 --> 01:55:03,640
in the hesitation in his brain or he's been told

2238
01:55:03,680 --> 01:55:04,840
don't do it. We don't know. We're not in the

2239
01:55:04,880 --> 01:55:06,680
meeting rooms. It does feel like it's something they're trying

2240
01:55:06,720 --> 01:55:09,439
to coach out of him, because that's does right, you

2241
01:55:09,560 --> 01:55:12,880
open yourself up to being hurt more. I'm not asking

2242
01:55:12,920 --> 01:55:16,239
him to be Josh Allen, Olamar Jackson, Pat Mahomes is

2243
01:55:16,279 --> 01:55:18,159
somebody who can run a little bit, but also probably

2244
01:55:18,199 --> 01:55:22,439
faster than c. J. Stroud. Unfortunately, where does CJ. Stroud

2245
01:55:22,520 --> 01:55:26,880
finish in a foot race among quarterbacks? Jamis back in

2246
01:55:26,920 --> 01:55:29,359
the end with Jamis Winston, it's not good. Well think

2247
01:55:29,359 --> 01:55:31,840
about it, is he? Uh, well, you can't do foot

2248
01:55:31,880 --> 01:55:34,680
speed quarterbacks. That's we'd be totally good. Go find the

2249
01:55:34,720 --> 01:55:38,560
Madden ratings speeding acceleration. We'll go back to their forty

2250
01:55:38,600 --> 01:55:40,680

2281
01:56:52,760 --> 01:56:54,680
a rocket went against Oklahoma City and getting ready for

2282
01:56:54,720 --> 01:56:58,399
Minnesota tomorrow night. Back to back, three games and four days.

2283
01:56:59,359 --> 01:57:01,920
I got four straight days of calling games. Next four

2284
01:57:01,960 --> 01:57:02,880
games rockets record?

2285
01:57:04,079 --> 01:57:04,199
Speaker 3: Uh?

2286
01:57:05,279 --> 01:57:13,039
Speaker 1: Next four games? Four and of course, so I'm purely bias. Okay,

2287
01:57:13,319 --> 01:57:15,319
I've got one hundred dollars for you at the betting window.

2288
01:57:16,760 --> 01:57:18,399
I don't bet on sports, can't bet on the NBA.

2289
01:57:18,439 --> 01:57:22,000
It's illegal for our NBA players. Okay, you've don't. I

2290
01:57:22,000 --> 01:57:25,239
don't care. In Costa Rica, okay, nobody knows my name.

2291
01:57:25,399 --> 01:57:28,680
Nobody knows your name. They think your name is Matteo Thomas. Oh, yes,

2292
01:57:30,359 --> 01:57:33,239
I am a Columbian drug lord. Yes, sure, why not?

2293
01:57:33,399 --> 01:57:37,600
All right? Two? I would take three and one? Two

2294
01:57:37,680 --> 01:57:39,840
and two be okay. Three and one make me excited,

2295
01:57:39,880 --> 01:57:41,680
One and three makes me depressed? Is everyone four means

2296
01:57:41,680 --> 01:57:46,000
in a day off? By the way, can I just

2297
01:57:46,079 --> 01:57:49,760
say you to Oklahoma City has been human lately, mostly

2298
01:57:49,880 --> 01:57:57,079
against the Spurs since December December and obviously a little

2299
01:57:57,079 --> 01:57:59,279
bit of midway of January. By I happy payday for

2300
01:57:59,279 --> 01:58:02,039
those ten and ten I think, But go ahead, Uh,

2301
01:58:02,119 --> 01:58:05,039
Oklahoma City's fourteen and six. How many of those three

2302
01:58:05,079 --> 01:58:07,479
of those losses against the Spurs. They have seven losses

2303
01:58:07,520 --> 01:58:13,520
this year, three to San Antonio, one a piece to Portland, Charlotte,

2304
01:58:14,279 --> 01:58:20,439
Phoenix in Minnesota. Okay, four and a half point dogs,

2305
01:58:20,600 --> 01:58:26,399
that's nothing. Nothing do for overdue for a three point barrage.

2306
01:58:27,960 --> 01:58:31,399
I'm open for a little a lot of sets, fires,

2307
01:58:31,479 --> 01:58:35,560
fires and hits. Six straight games, not another nylons, six

2308
01:58:35,640 --> 01:58:37,600
straight games under thirty percent from three You know this

2309
01:58:37,720 --> 01:58:40,079
to appeal the curtain for the folks are highlights that

2310
01:58:40,319 --> 01:58:42,840
are made by producer Josh c when when it's nothing

2311
01:58:42,880 --> 01:58:45,399
but nylon, it gets it gets slugged in b in

2312
01:58:45,720 --> 01:58:46,479
for nothing but nilon.

2313
01:58:46,840 --> 01:58:47,159
Speaker 2: Did you know that?

2314
01:58:47,319 --> 01:58:47,479
Speaker 1: You know?

2315
01:58:47,560 --> 01:58:47,800
Speaker 5: I did not?

2316
01:58:47,880 --> 01:58:50,560
Speaker 1: When you play one, I don't. I haven't been nothing

2317
01:58:50,600 --> 01:58:55,079
but damn a couple of weeks that hits the man.

2318
01:58:55,279 --> 01:58:59,199
I could try to find one. That's might take a minute.

2319
01:59:00,840 --> 01:59:02,319
That's because I don't do nothing but an isl on

2320
01:59:02,359 --> 01:59:04,800
two point shots. I know you don't do it for

2321
01:59:04,880 --> 01:59:06,960
free throws. That's about all even making you have to

2322
01:59:06,960 --> 01:59:09,319
go the Rocket archive for this. Yes, oh this is

2323
01:59:09,439 --> 01:59:13,560
so fine one anyway? Uh here this is from January

2324
01:59:13,680 --> 01:59:18,239
third shot o'clock at four, at three at two, bounce

2325
01:59:18,319 --> 01:59:21,079
pass out right baseline Tari for a three pointer. That's

2326
01:59:21,800 --> 01:59:25,359
nothing but down on. There's a three pointer for Taris

2327
01:59:25,439 --> 01:59:27,800
at his first shot at make that distance and the

2328
01:59:27,960 --> 01:59:30,600
Rockets are up sixty to forty four. Oh, sixty to

2329
01:59:30,720 --> 01:59:35,119
forty four sounds good? Yeah, none in the last game. Stop,

2330
01:59:36,239 --> 01:59:38,199
you know what I gotta do? It reminds, would you

2331
01:59:38,239 --> 01:59:41,479
text me? Remind me to know it's got to be organic,

2332
01:59:41,560 --> 01:59:43,600
because here's the thing. Nothing but an island means it

2333
01:59:44,119 --> 01:59:47,600
goes right through, doesn't rattle around. There's a lot of

2334
01:59:47,680 --> 01:59:51,000
November worlds, a lot of November, not a whole lot

2335
01:59:51,079 --> 01:59:56,199
in December, and only one in January. Rockets, by the way,

2336
01:59:56,199 --> 01:59:58,439
have won seven consecutive games at home across the time

2337
01:59:58,520 --> 02:00:01,000
line five forty five remaining of first quarter. We got

2338
02:00:01,039 --> 02:00:04,680
as straight on twenty six foot shot nets nothing but nylon,

2339
02:00:05,399 --> 02:00:07,880
and the Rockets have put together a great run now

2340
02:00:08,000 --> 02:00:12,720
leaving nineteen to fifteen. Nineteen fifteen, we played some early highlights,

2341
02:00:12,760 --> 02:00:14,840
don't we dropping that n B in early on? Well,

2342
02:00:15,000 --> 02:00:16,960
you know, let me tay. If it's three o nine,

2343
02:00:16,960 --> 02:00:19,479
I'll do it. I've never done three nothing, that's nylon.

2344
02:00:20,239 --> 02:00:23,119
I might have to do it tonight. All right, Rockets

2345
02:00:23,119 --> 02:00:25,520
again trying for their eighth consecutive winning home. Let's talk

2346
02:00:25,600 --> 02:00:27,960
to QESO on seventy Kso what's a good word?

2347
02:00:29,399 --> 02:00:30,399
Speaker 13: Hey Man, Hey Ross?

2348
02:00:31,680 --> 02:00:34,560
Speaker 1: Is that one drop all I had where Craig does

2349
02:00:34,640 --> 02:00:37,720
the pop popping the polyoparine or whatever that is, popping

2350
02:00:37,760 --> 02:00:40,279
the polypropylene. I have no idea what you're talking about. Yes,

2351
02:00:40,399 --> 02:00:46,159
So we talked about how popping in the polypropylene. What

2352
02:00:46,439 --> 02:00:50,560
is that popping propylene is? Really the is the texture, yes,

2353
02:00:50,840 --> 02:00:52,720
of of the of the net. We were talking about

2354
02:00:52,760 --> 02:00:54,920
nothing but nylon, and man was talking about the thing

2355
02:00:55,000 --> 02:00:56,800
and I was like, hey, the net's not even made

2356
02:00:56,840 --> 02:00:59,279
of nylon. It's what's it made of? And we looked

2357
02:00:59,279 --> 02:01:02,079
it up and it was polypropylene. And then we tried

2358
02:01:02,119 --> 02:01:03,920
to come up with what would work there. So I

2359
02:01:03,960 --> 02:01:07,439
said popping the polypropylene, and I said you should do that.

2360
02:01:08,000 --> 02:01:09,920
And then I think that day we happened to have

2361
02:01:10,039 --> 02:01:12,000
Craig Akerman on or something and we told him to

2362
02:01:12,039 --> 02:01:15,239
do it, and then he did it, and he did

2363
02:01:15,279 --> 02:01:18,600
it later I texted him because he did it late

2364
02:01:18,680 --> 02:01:20,680
in the season when were they really terrible. Like two

2365
02:01:20,760 --> 02:01:22,319
years ago he did it like with the last game

2366
02:01:22,359 --> 02:01:25,279
of the year. There's no chance I'm saying that case

2367
02:01:25,279 --> 02:01:28,119
so because I can't say that word properly without butchering

2368
02:01:28,159 --> 02:01:30,840
it fifteen times plus. Nothing but Nylon's my phrase. I

2369
02:01:31,000 --> 02:01:34,319
gotta keep keep with the phrase. But it's not nylon mad.

2370
02:01:34,359 --> 02:01:38,920
It's inaccurate. I think people understand what nothing but ilon? No,

2371
02:01:39,000 --> 02:01:40,720
I don't think they do. Oh, they're gonna learn the

2372
02:01:40,840 --> 02:01:42,800
night almost say it a bunch of times, say pop

2373
02:01:42,920 --> 02:01:48,399
in the polypropylene. I'm not doing it. That's ridiculous. Made

2374
02:01:48,439 --> 02:01:50,239
me so happy when I just randomly heard Craig say

2375
02:01:50,239 --> 02:01:52,199
it was like just I was doing the postgame show.

2376
02:01:52,520 --> 02:01:54,720
It was like Jay, Shaun Tait and Justin Patten and

2377
02:01:54,760 --> 02:01:57,600
the boys were on the floor. A pull for you,

2378
02:01:58,079 --> 02:02:02,439
thanks Jaseo. He was dropping the pole. It's great. Was

2379
02:02:02,479 --> 02:02:04,239
that when he was doing the home radio and I

2380
02:02:04,359 --> 02:02:08,079
was doing the PA or was that uh radio? At

2381
02:02:08,079 --> 02:02:09,960
the time we were in the old place, I know

2382
02:02:10,119 --> 02:02:14,000
for sure. How long have we been here? Two years? Yeah,

2383
02:02:14,159 --> 02:02:17,720
this is my tenth year. Ninth. In finishing up, I

2384
02:02:17,920 --> 02:02:19,199
was saying for you to do it on radio. I

2385
02:02:19,239 --> 02:02:20,720
don't know if you were a full time radio yet.

2386
02:02:22,680 --> 02:02:24,960
I did PA for five. This is my fifth year

2387
02:02:25,000 --> 02:02:28,239
of radio, so we'll see, all right, whatever, nothing of

2388
02:02:28,279 --> 02:02:30,079
an eye on if you like that phrase, I don't

2389
02:02:30,119 --> 02:02:31,439
care if you don't like it. By the way, I

2390
02:02:31,520 --> 02:02:35,159
got this jack hole who continues to brate me for

2391
02:02:35,319 --> 02:02:37,520
saying off the heel on a myss three point shot.

2392
02:02:37,840 --> 02:02:40,399
There is a heel in a basketball rim. There just is.

2393
02:02:40,640 --> 02:02:42,439
Speaker 2: Certainly popping the polypropyl.

2394
02:02:43,079 --> 02:02:44,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, he found it. Good for you.

2395
02:02:46,359 --> 02:02:47,640
Speaker 2: Pop on the polypropyle.

2396
02:02:48,119 --> 02:02:50,880
Speaker 1: That's a radio call. He definitely he would have said

2397
02:02:50,920 --> 02:02:55,319
that on television. I don't think he has he did, okay, yeah,

2398
02:02:55,319 --> 02:02:57,720
I don't know if this was Does this sound like radio?

2399
02:02:58,439 --> 02:03:02,479
Speaker 2: The rockets are certainly POPPINGROPYLEA.

2400
02:03:01,319 --> 02:03:03,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. The mix of the crowd absolutely that's a

2401
02:03:03,560 --> 02:03:05,279
radio call. So he I must have been doing PA

2402
02:03:05,319 --> 02:03:08,600
at the time and doing radio on the road. Okay,

2403
02:03:09,039 --> 02:03:13,319
all right? What could be allowed? Swallow the crowd? What

2404
02:03:13,439 --> 02:03:17,319

02:03:55,319 --> 02:03:58,800
to go to Foxborough and beat the Pats on Sunday

2416
02:03:58,800 --> 02:04:02,119
afternoon Division against the New England Patriots. And we're not

2417
02:04:02,199 --> 02:04:04,359
even talking about all the ghosts of years past for

2418
02:04:04,439 --> 02:04:08,399
the Texans. Yeah, we're not talking about Baltimore. We're not

2419
02:04:08,560 --> 02:04:12,239
talking about New England and Brady or Pat Mahomes and

2420
02:04:12,359 --> 02:04:16,279
Lamar Jackson never went to Buffalo for a playoff game.

2421
02:04:16,359 --> 02:04:18,720
That's probably still on the to do list. Although if

2422
02:04:18,760 --> 02:04:21,560
the Bills beat the Broncos on Sunday, they'll be coming

2423
02:04:21,680 --> 02:04:24,640
here the AFC Championship one week from Sunday. That's what

2424
02:04:24,720 --> 02:04:26,640
I'm predicting. That's what I'm going with. That's what I'm

2425
02:04:26,640 --> 02:04:28,439
sticking with. I said they were gonna make the AFC

2426
02:04:28,560 --> 02:04:30,920
Championship game. Yeah, and I think they're still gonna make

2427
02:04:30,960 --> 02:04:33,399
it all right. Rockets and Action tonight against the Oklahoma

2428
02:04:33,439 --> 02:04:37,720
City Thunder have won seven consecutive games at home of

2429
02:04:38,439 --> 02:04:40,840
Oklahoma City. Thunder has been human as of late. Still

2430
02:04:40,840 --> 02:04:43,319
a great basketball team, still the predicted favorite to win

2431
02:04:43,399 --> 02:04:46,239
the West. Rockets need to get their mojo back again.

2432
02:04:46,680 --> 02:04:48,359
Clearly have much better team at home than they are

2433
02:04:48,399 --> 02:04:49,840
on the road, and just the fact that they're home

2434
02:04:49,880 --> 02:04:51,840
for a few games has got to be a good

2435
02:04:51,880 --> 02:04:53,680
sign for the Rockets. Hey, you get home and then

2436
02:04:53,680 --> 02:04:55,720
you get to settle in for a game at home.

2437
02:04:55,800 --> 02:04:57,199
You do have the back to back with a couple

2438
02:04:57,239 --> 02:05:00,520
of difficult games, but just have those legs under you.

2439
02:05:00,680 --> 02:05:03,159
The three pointers haven't been going down. Feels like a

2440
02:05:03,199 --> 02:05:04,960
lot of them been short in your mind, do you

2441
02:05:05,039 --> 02:05:07,960
feel like that, Like it's just get your legs, get

2442
02:05:08,000 --> 02:05:10,479
some three pointers going in. They're due for a barrage.

2443
02:05:10,640 --> 02:05:12,680
Would be nice to get them tonight against the Oklahoma

2444
02:05:12,720 --> 02:05:14,760
City Thunder and then tomorrow against the Timberwolf. You know what,

2445
02:05:14,800 --> 02:05:18,000
the craziest part is, they still continue to rebound beautifully.

2446
02:05:18,560 --> 02:05:22,000
They're just taking a lot of second chance shots, second chance,

2447
02:05:22,159 --> 02:05:25,159
third chance, fourth chance. That's what's made this run so

2448
02:05:25,319 --> 02:05:28,359
frustrating is they continue to get the chances. Most of

2449
02:05:28,399 --> 02:05:31,600
the games, except for Sunday against Sacramento, were close, and

2450
02:05:31,960 --> 02:05:34,920
you the games have been right there if they would

2451
02:05:34,920 --> 02:05:36,720
have just convert on a couple of the chances. Kevin

2452
02:05:36,800 --> 02:05:39,560
Durant continues to put up huge numbers twenty plus game

2453
02:05:39,720 --> 02:05:42,680
points and fifteen consecutive games with the Rockets. Alp He's

2454
02:05:42,680 --> 02:05:44,680
got his feet under him a little bit, says the

2455
02:05:44,720 --> 02:05:47,239
ankles on one hundred percent may not be for a while.

2456
02:05:47,800 --> 02:05:50,159
That's life in the NBA, and I'm glad he's gotten

2457
02:05:50,199 --> 02:05:53,239
through it. Three games in four days. You're not getting

2458
02:05:53,319 --> 02:05:55,199
days off. You've had all these games on a road.

2459
02:05:55,359 --> 02:05:58,479
It just sometimes in the NBA at some points of

2460
02:05:58,479 --> 02:06:00,640
the year, the schedule works against you, and it feels

2461
02:06:00,680 --> 02:06:02,119
like there is an element of that. And the fact

2462
02:06:02,119 --> 02:06:04,079
of the matter is Denver one last night in Dallas,

2463
02:06:04,279 --> 02:06:07,600
no Nikolojokic, Anthony Edwards not a part of Minnesota's not

2464
02:06:07,720 --> 02:06:10,520
the last couple days. They'll be in town tomorrow. They won.

2465
02:06:10,640 --> 02:06:14,600
They destroyed the UH Milwaukee Bucks without him. Teams just

2466
02:06:14,680 --> 02:06:17,079
fight past this kind of stuff. Yeah, it can happen.

2467
02:06:17,399 --> 02:06:19,439
You can win games when things aren't going your way.

2468
02:06:19,680 --> 02:06:21,560
Rockets won two and oh when two and oh when

2469
02:06:21,600 --> 02:06:23,680
Durant was gone. You can win when Durant's gone. You

2470
02:06:23,680 --> 02:06:26,039
can win when Al prinching Gun's gone and coach you.

2471
02:06:26,079 --> 02:06:29,079
Doka will save that there. They can make excuses, and

2472
02:06:29,159 --> 02:06:32,840
there are some excuses, but you can still go out

2473
02:06:32,840 --> 02:06:34,520
there and win those games and play well. All right.

2474
02:06:34,600 --> 02:06:36,880
Seven one three, two one two five, seven ninety. If

2475
02:06:36,880 --> 02:06:38,880
you want to jump into the conversation seven one three

2476
02:06:38,920 --> 02:06:41,479
two one two five seven ninety, we are still a

2477
02:06:41,560 --> 02:06:43,840
waiting ward where Kyle Tucker is going to be playing.

2478
02:06:44,279 --> 02:06:46,039
I was hoping he'll be during the show because let

2479
02:06:46,079 --> 02:06:47,560
me tell you, if it happens between now and two

2480
02:06:47,600 --> 02:06:53,199
o'clock today, we are going to absolutely destroy you. Really

2481
02:06:53,640 --> 02:06:56,000
and the best part is we have Space City Home

2482
02:06:56,079 --> 02:06:59,600
Network here recording us, and they'll be able to see

2483
02:06:59,600 --> 02:07:02,840
the carn first hand. It's fun. I mean, Iver designed myself.

2484
02:07:02,960 --> 02:07:05,239
It'll be whatever will be will be, okay. I I

2485
02:07:05,640 --> 02:07:09,600
got excited. I definitely overplayed my hands. Overplayed it will

2486
02:07:09,640 --> 02:07:12,760
be an understatement. I thought there was no way the

2487
02:07:12,920 --> 02:07:14,960
Kyle Tucker was gonna sign for under seven and a

2488
02:07:15,000 --> 02:07:17,000
half years. I just didn't think it was gonna happen.

2489
02:07:17,239 --> 02:07:19,479
We'll see. And I have a nervous switch to check

2490
02:07:19,560 --> 02:07:21,880
my phone during the show. I might still be right.

2491
02:07:22,479 --> 02:07:24,960
Are you sure you don't want to hedge in what

2492
02:07:25,039 --> 02:07:27,319
way you want to? We can you want to? You

2493
02:07:27,359 --> 02:07:30,239
can pay for my meal now and downgrade the meal?

2494
02:07:30,640 --> 02:07:33,880
What do you mean from Habachi? Yeah? We upgraded? What

2495
02:07:34,079 --> 02:07:35,720
was the first bet we can go to? We can

2496
02:07:35,760 --> 02:07:38,600
go to realies, realise yes, and get you a two

2497
02:07:38,680 --> 02:07:40,960
for twenty and get a two for twenty. Okay, chips

2498
02:07:41,000 --> 02:07:45,479
and Salsta Chicken, cris Burst iced tea, and you pay

2499
02:07:45,560 --> 02:07:48,119
for it and we and we say the bets off.

2500
02:07:48,199 --> 02:07:51,399
I'm a gambler, baby, you are going to let the

2501
02:07:51,560 --> 02:07:54,239
chips fall where they may. I ain't scared. You should

2502
02:07:54,319 --> 02:07:58,399
be scared. I'm a little scared. Remember I'm a Rockets insider,

2503
02:07:58,840 --> 02:08:02,279
no Texans inside. I know what happened to what happened

2504
02:08:02,279 --> 02:08:05,359
to Joe Mixon, Texans insider. I'm still working on that. Yeah,

2505
02:08:05,399 --> 02:08:07,920
you don't even know. And I'm mister Texas, No, you're not.

2506
02:08:08,079 --> 02:08:10,840
At seven one three, two, one two five seven ninety.

2507
02:08:10,920 --> 02:08:13,640
Let's talk to Greg. Let's talk some Texans football. By

2508
02:08:13,640 --> 02:08:17,319
the way, Greg, Good afternoon, good after noons.

2509
02:08:19,119 --> 02:08:22,079
Speaker 13: I was just thinking, I said, well, we don't want

2510
02:08:22,119 --> 02:08:24,760
to be like the all of Slash Titans and get

2511
02:08:24,760 --> 02:08:27,920
to the one yard line, you know, uh mcnow resting

2512
02:08:28,159 --> 02:08:30,840
and resting thiefs and not win the Super Bowl. Then

2513
02:08:30,880 --> 02:08:34,199
we take on bum Phillip's old thing, that's just bust

2514
02:08:34,279 --> 02:08:36,880
the door down. And then the fact that we won

2515
02:08:37,079 --> 02:08:40,600
nine straight games before the season ended and we had

2516
02:08:40,720 --> 02:08:43,760
four more. That's a Baker's dozen, and so thirteen is

2517
02:08:43,840 --> 02:08:45,960
not a bad number after all. I think we can

2518
02:08:46,000 --> 02:08:48,319
get some T shirts made if Texas have won the

2519
02:08:48,399 --> 02:08:52,199
Super Bowl with the Bakers dozen victory in twenty twenty six.

2520
02:08:53,760 --> 02:08:55,680
Speaker 1: Greg, I think if there was a T shirt made

2521
02:08:55,840 --> 02:09:00,159
for a Houston football fan, it would be finally and

2522
02:09:00,359 --> 02:09:01,239
everybody would.

2523
02:09:01,119 --> 02:09:06,119
Speaker 13: Know what it meant, right right, But thirteen is not

2524
02:09:06,199 --> 02:09:09,600
a bad number. After we won nine, now we was four.

2525
02:09:10,039 --> 02:09:13,199
We got three more to go. Again, that's the Baker's

2526
02:09:13,239 --> 02:09:14,680
does and we'll knock it on out of here.

2527
02:09:14,960 --> 02:09:17,840
Speaker 1: You don't need three more, no doubt, what's he talking about.

2528
02:09:17,960 --> 02:09:18,760
You don't need four more?

2529
02:09:19,039 --> 02:09:19,560
Speaker 6: Three?

2530
02:09:20,319 --> 02:09:23,039
Speaker 1: No, they get to sixty one nine, huh.

2531
02:09:23,279 --> 02:09:26,640
Speaker 13: No, we won, But I'm saying that we won nine three.

2532
02:09:27,199 --> 02:09:33,159
Speaker 1: Oh nice, see what you're saying makeing sense now? Yeah? Yeah, right?

2533
02:09:33,279 --> 02:09:36,520
Speaker 13: And so, uh, thirteen is not a bad number after all,

2534
02:09:37,039 --> 02:09:40,520
because it took us after that and three start well,

2535
02:09:40,600 --> 02:09:43,079
actually not going three, but when we won nine straight

2536
02:09:43,239 --> 02:09:45,680
and then four more. You can't ask it for no

2537
02:09:45,760 --> 02:09:46,239
better than that.

2538
02:09:47,399 --> 02:09:47,800
Speaker 1: You can't.

2539
02:09:48,319 --> 02:09:49,359
Speaker 13: And that's a Baker's dozen.

2540
02:09:49,840 --> 02:09:50,239
Speaker 5: Thirteen.

2541
02:09:50,359 --> 02:09:52,279
Speaker 1: It was a big parade downtown. I should get my

2542
02:09:52,319 --> 02:09:55,439
own fire engine. Why because you hate the Texans. I

2543
02:09:55,479 --> 02:09:59,079
don't hate the Texans. Hater Texans observer. No, no, you

2544
02:09:59,119 --> 02:10:01,960
should be nowhere near that fire engine. I will be

2545
02:10:02,000 --> 02:10:04,239
in the same downtown. I will be in the same

2546
02:10:04,560 --> 02:10:07,279
fire engine as C. J. Stritt and Will Anderson. Why

2547
02:10:07,279 --> 02:10:10,439
don't they just have the parade around the stadium. You

2548
02:10:10,439 --> 02:10:14,640
can go by the Timmy Chans and the Tauchos. This

2549
02:10:14,800 --> 02:10:16,840
is an Arlington, boss, can go by the Hooker Alley.

2550
02:10:17,000 --> 02:10:19,199
Oh my god, we're not letting you know. We're not

2551
02:10:19,279 --> 02:10:21,680
doing it planning the parade. I got it. No one's

2552
02:10:21,720 --> 02:10:24,399
going to your parade. If there's a parade, if there's

2553
02:10:24,439 --> 02:10:27,000
a parade on, no one's going. You don't want to

2554
02:10:27,000 --> 02:10:29,079
go to all three of those places. We'd go there

2555
02:10:29,119 --> 02:10:31,279
for lunch, but that'd be as far as you go. Thanks,

2556
02:10:31,479 --> 02:10:33,279
thanks Greg for the phone call. I appreciate it. No,

2557
02:10:33,359 --> 02:10:37,079
we're not. No, with the parade's downtown. The texts aren't

2558
02:10:37,079 --> 02:10:42,359
down there, they're on Kirby If Stella Lincoln Kirby. No,

2559
02:10:42,640 --> 02:10:44,520
no one wants to go to Stell Lincoln Kirby for

2560
02:10:44,600 --> 02:10:48,159
a parade. Nobody wants to be on os T. Yeah,

2561
02:10:48,239 --> 02:10:50,880
you'd be the old Spanish trail. No, you got a

2562
02:10:50,920 --> 02:10:54,079
pack key for the parade. I don't want to peine. No,

2563
02:10:54,479 --> 02:10:58,479
that's all right, be prepared. No, I think it's a

2564
02:10:58,520 --> 02:11:02,000
good idea. So you're telling me we started timmy chance? Yes,

2565
02:11:04,760 --> 02:11:08,399
what are we going after that? Chatchos there's got to

2566
02:11:08,399 --> 02:11:11,000
be a p I close. Absolutely, you started the pal

2567
02:11:11,079 --> 02:11:12,960
you go or a Scottish in somewhere over all. Yeah,

2568
02:11:12,960 --> 02:11:15,560
there's got to be relaxation in somewhere there over there

2569
02:11:15,600 --> 02:11:18,640
on Main. Yeah, there's a ship lead that's still over there. Sure,

2570
02:11:18,680 --> 02:11:22,319
why not don't say Houston Institution, get some kolachis and

2571
02:11:22,399 --> 02:11:26,039
hop on your fire engine you you know you do,

2572
02:11:26,199 --> 02:11:28,880
and handle leading the way. No, they're not. No, they

2573
02:11:28,880 --> 02:11:31,520
don't want to have a completely encloseding glass. They might

2574
02:11:31,640 --> 02:11:34,479
have to. I'm telling you, you get a Super Bowl

2575
02:11:34,520 --> 02:11:37,199
window with a Popemobile on it. People be writing kind

2576
02:11:37,239 --> 02:11:40,600
of like I want a stadium. Didn't you didn't get

2577
02:11:40,640 --> 02:11:41,359
hit by it didn't?

2578
02:11:41,840 --> 02:11:41,960
Speaker 9: Was it?

2579
02:11:42,119 --> 02:11:44,439
Speaker 1: Ted Cruz got hit by a beer can or somebody

2580
02:11:44,520 --> 02:11:47,159
at the downtown parade? It was not far from us.

2581
02:11:47,199 --> 02:11:48,800
Maybe we should not have a parade at all. Maybe

2582
02:11:48,840 --> 02:11:52,960
we shouldn't. What won't you do it inspite of a parade.

2583
02:11:53,199 --> 02:11:54,600
I don't think you can do any I mean a

2584
02:11:54,680 --> 02:11:56,399
celebration in the stadium or now you know when the

2585
02:11:56,479 --> 02:11:59,479
Rockets won the championship in the nineties, I was one

2586
02:11:59,520 --> 02:12:02,720
of the co host of the Astrodome celebration for the Rockets.

2587
02:12:02,960 --> 02:12:04,680
What do you mean they had all like inside the

2588
02:12:04,720 --> 02:12:07,640
outside the dome. Really they cleared the rats out and

2589
02:12:07,680 --> 02:12:12,119
all that. Stop you're Houston, Stop, you're right. I'm sorry.

2590
02:12:12,199 --> 02:12:13,800
There were no rats back then. May have been rats,

2591
02:12:13,800 --> 02:12:16,359
but they were hidden. Yeah, that's right. They were getting exterminated.

2592
02:12:16,439 --> 02:12:18,720
Now they're just running free. We had fifty thousand people.

2593
02:12:19,439 --> 02:12:21,000
I didn't know that. I went to the parades when

2594
02:12:21,000 --> 02:12:22,239
I was a kid. Yeah, we had a we had

2595
02:12:22,239 --> 02:12:24,960
a dome celebration. Yeah, my brother got Robert Reid's signature

2596
02:12:25,000 --> 02:12:28,119
on his shirt. Robert Ree wasn't in part of that

2597
02:12:28,199 --> 02:12:29,840
team though. Yeah, but he was at the parade. Oh,

2598
02:12:29,880 --> 02:12:32,279
he went to the alumni partial. Yeah, I think he was. Okay,

2599
02:12:32,720 --> 02:12:36,760
I mean you see hanging out, were you on were

2600
02:12:36,800 --> 02:12:37,560
you in the parades?

2601
02:12:37,760 --> 02:12:37,800
Speaker 5: No?

2602
02:12:39,199 --> 02:12:41,560
Speaker 1: I know you know you're still bitter about it. Look,

2603
02:12:41,560 --> 02:12:44,079
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to uncover past the Rockets. Hey,

2604
02:12:44,119 --> 02:12:46,359
when the Rockets win the next championship, hopeful in the

2605
02:12:46,359 --> 02:12:47,960
next year or two, guy will be in the parade

2606
02:12:49,359 --> 02:12:51,920
doing what I don't know. Driving. Want to get you

2607
02:12:51,960 --> 02:12:55,199
in a Turbo costume, not dressing up like Turbo. That's

2608
02:12:55,279 --> 02:12:57,520
not happening. I'm busy enough as it is. All right,

2609
02:12:57,560 --> 02:13:01,000
I'm calling games. I'm as a mass I have to

2610
02:13:01,159 --> 02:13:03,039
like my ideas, but I have them in so far.

2611
02:13:03,119 --> 02:13:06,600
Your ideas are terrible. Ost parade and me dressing up

2612
02:13:06,760 --> 02:13:09,960
like Turbo. See at the Scottish in one thirteen the

2613
02:13:10,000 --> 02:13:12,199
Matt Thomas Show, would row seven one three, two, one

2614
02:13:12,279 --> 02:13:18,000
two five seven nineties Space City brought us a treat.

2615
02:13:19,800 --> 02:13:19,840
Speaker 9: You.

2616
02:13:21,079 --> 02:13:23,560
Speaker 1: Let's fine, they'll get you taken care of. I'm not

2617
02:13:23,600 --> 02:13:25,640
worried about it. You know, they'll give you a free

2618
02:13:25,680 --> 02:13:28,319
month of their on on their uh with resh straight

2619
02:13:28,319 --> 02:13:30,479
to phone access. Right, Oh really was it twenty bucks

2620
02:13:30,479 --> 02:13:32,880
a month? Is day? Bad? Not bad? Okay, it beats.

2621
02:13:33,079 --> 02:13:34,399
Let me tell you something. We were just talking about

2622
02:13:34,399 --> 02:13:37,920
this tech TV networks are going away. Be happy, be happy?

2623
02:13:38,960 --> 02:13:39,319
Speaker 7: All right?

2624
02:13:39,520 --> 02:13:41,479
Speaker 1: It is the Matt Thomas Show. Ross one twenty is

2625
02:13:41,520 --> 02:13:43,880
our time seven one three two one two five seven

2626
02:13:44,079 --> 02:13:45,600
nine zero. I brought this up to very at the

2627
02:13:45,720 --> 02:13:47,960
very beginning of the show today, and I brought it

2628
02:13:48,000 --> 02:13:51,600
and also discussed it briefly yesterday. Is there as much

2629
02:13:51,800 --> 02:13:56,159
angst among the other NFL teams about the quarterback spot

2630
02:13:56,199 --> 02:14:00,800
that there is in Houston, Texas? Let's do this again, like, yes,

2631
02:14:00,840 --> 02:14:03,159
we did kind of did the whole team situations, which

2632
02:14:03,279 --> 02:14:06,079
nobody feels perfect because there's no perfect team in the NFL.

2633
02:14:06,159 --> 02:14:09,319
And that's how that's by design, right, most parody with

2634
02:14:09,399 --> 02:14:13,279
the hard cap. Okay, you wanted to strictly quarterbacks. Let's

2635
02:14:13,359 --> 02:14:15,680
talk about bo Nicks. If you're if we're doing Denver

2636
02:14:15,760 --> 02:14:19,520
Sports Radio right now, yes, is our confidence level one

2637
02:14:19,560 --> 02:14:23,720
to ten? What would it be? Uh five? But don't

2638
02:14:23,760 --> 02:14:25,800
sure we with CJ. Stroud, by the way, or are

2639
02:14:25,800 --> 02:14:27,199
we gonna get there? We'll get there, We'll get there.

2640
02:14:27,319 --> 02:14:29,479
Let me tell you this, if you're fourteen and three

2641
02:14:29,600 --> 02:14:32,359
and you're the number one seed in the AFC, you

2642
02:14:32,560 --> 02:14:35,680
know that they've they've not won fourteen games in spite

2643
02:14:35,720 --> 02:14:39,319
of bo Nicks. He's had to have made some plays, right,

2644
02:14:40,000 --> 02:14:43,319
just like c J. Stroud May twenty five touchdowns, eleven picks,

2645
02:14:43,439 --> 02:14:48,399
almost four thousand yards, completion percentage I do total QBR

2646
02:14:48,439 --> 02:14:51,960
fifty eight point four hold on sixty three percent, which

2647
02:14:52,039 --> 02:14:54,199
is low for the NFL. Yeah, that's a that's a

2648
02:14:54,359 --> 02:14:58,560
good season. I would assume he has five rushing touchdowns.

2649
02:14:59,159 --> 02:14:59,359
Speaker 7: Yeah.

2650
02:14:59,479 --> 02:15:01,159
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I hope we get to talk to

2651
02:15:01,199 --> 02:15:03,439
Denver next week or to Buffalo next week. We've got

2652
02:15:03,520 --> 02:15:08,479
contacts in both those cities. I would say that. And look,

2653
02:15:08,680 --> 02:15:10,439
the only person I talked to you about Denver Broncos

2654
02:15:10,439 --> 02:15:13,279
football is my engineer that does the Nuggets games with me.

2655
02:15:14,640 --> 02:15:18,079
He likes him a lot. He says, you're wonder year

2656
02:15:18,199 --> 02:15:22,079
to this guy. He wanted him to lose. Well, did

2657
02:15:22,159 --> 02:15:24,640
get him a still guy the number one overall seed? No,

2658
02:15:24,800 --> 02:15:26,840
he said. Progression Year one of year two was really good.

2659
02:15:26,880 --> 02:15:30,079
I mean, I don't think no quarterback progressed as much

2660
02:15:30,199 --> 02:15:33,119
as Drake may did from season one to two. But

2661
02:15:33,199 --> 02:15:34,960
Bnicks made a sick I mean Bonenicks let him in

2662
02:15:34,960 --> 02:15:37,520
the playoffs last year. That's a two year playoff team,

2663
02:15:38,399 --> 02:15:41,560
number one seed. You gotta get flowers. So I would

2664
02:15:41,600 --> 02:15:43,600
say not again. I guess we should have called the

2665
02:15:43,640 --> 02:15:45,600
Denver Sports part. I get the true indication we could have,

2666
02:15:45,840 --> 02:15:48,239
But it feels like to me that if a confidence

2667
02:15:48,279 --> 02:15:50,640
scale for the average Denver fan should be about a

2668
02:15:50,720 --> 02:15:54,720
seven on him on one of the ten scale. If

2669
02:15:54,800 --> 02:15:58,880
ten is Mahomes does anything in the playoffs, Mahomes, he's

2670
02:15:58,920 --> 02:16:03,159
a seven. Nah I'm going I'm sticking with Maybe you

2671
02:16:03,239 --> 02:16:05,279
can convince me to get to a six. Okay, all right,

2672
02:16:05,600 --> 02:16:09,039
let's go to Buffalo then, okay, ten, absolutely a ten.

2673
02:16:10,319 --> 02:16:13,880
Nine he can turn the ball over.

2674
02:16:14,840 --> 02:16:15,600
Speaker 2: Turn the ball over.

2675
02:16:15,880 --> 02:16:18,479
Speaker 1: Now we're not doing semantics. It's a tick going from

2676
02:16:18,560 --> 02:16:22,640
nine to ten. I bet you there are some Buffalo

2677
02:16:22,720 --> 02:16:24,520
Bills down. First of all, you're Buffalo Bill fan. You

2678
02:16:24,520 --> 02:16:25,760
get doubts in the back of your mind, no matter

2679
02:16:25,800 --> 02:16:27,520
what you have, doubts about the other side of the

2680
02:16:27,520 --> 02:16:30,720
football way more than about your offensive See right, Josh

2681
02:16:30,800 --> 02:16:34,920
Allen can occasionally be turnover proe. You get a top

2682
02:16:34,959 --> 02:16:36,879
two running back in the league. It's at least rushing

2683
02:16:36,920 --> 02:16:39,879
wise and yards wise. Occasionally he can turn the ball

2684
02:16:39,920 --> 02:16:41,479
over and make you say what the hell was that

2685
02:16:42,719 --> 02:16:44,239
he can also you know what I thought about him?

2686
02:16:44,280 --> 02:16:47,760
But he's dynamic. Yeah, you know how starting nine point five? Okay, whatever?

2687
02:16:48,200 --> 02:16:50,200
You know what I thought about when he played the Texans.

2688
02:16:50,719 --> 02:16:53,399
What he takes terrible sacks too? Yes, he does because

2689
02:16:53,399 --> 02:16:55,440
he tries to run out of him and a lot

2690
02:16:55,479 --> 02:16:57,399
of times it works, but a lot of times it does.

2691
02:16:57,520 --> 02:16:57,559
Speaker 9: Not.

2692
02:16:57,799 --> 02:16:59,600
Speaker 1: Like who is the who would you think, forgeting about

2693
02:16:59,600 --> 02:17:01,319
the teams that are on the playoffs, who is the

2694
02:17:01,399 --> 02:17:03,600
best sack taker in the NFL? I think Mahomes is

2695
02:17:03,680 --> 02:17:05,239
a good job. Mahomes like, yeah, I'll take the loss,

2696
02:17:05,319 --> 02:17:07,920
let's go, I'll get you know, he can run his

2697
02:17:08,000 --> 02:17:13,079
way into more sacks. Lamar Jack Rogerson somebody completely lacking

2698
02:17:13,120 --> 02:17:16,239
in mobility. Aaron's like, I'll go fetal position quick, Yes,

2699
02:17:16,600 --> 02:17:19,360
go straight down because he knows he's never making a

2700
02:17:19,399 --> 02:17:21,920
play some of this. Who else is a good quarterback

2701
02:17:22,000 --> 02:17:25,680
in the NFL? Good good, really good quarterback? Who knows

2702
02:17:26,000 --> 02:17:29,639
when to take the l I mean Lamar Jackson does

2703
02:17:29,760 --> 02:17:33,159
get I mean he makes incredible odd ways one still

2704
02:17:33,159 --> 02:17:36,879
in the playoffs. Matthew Stafford, Matthew knows when the pocket collapses.

2705
02:17:36,920 --> 02:17:38,440
I'm just gonna go down to be sure I don't

2706
02:17:38,440 --> 02:17:42,159
get hurt. I guess the question would be the least

2707
02:17:42,239 --> 02:17:44,799
the quarterbacks that are the least mobile? No when to

2708
02:17:44,920 --> 02:17:49,719
say all rights exactly? All right, so you have nine

2709
02:17:49,760 --> 02:17:53,319
and a half yes on Josh Allen, yes, six six

2710
02:17:53,440 --> 02:17:57,120
on Nicks. It's like a podcast sticking with that. All right,

2711
02:17:57,639 --> 02:18:03,760
Let's get to, uh, the AFC side of things. Drake

2712
02:18:03,840 --> 02:18:07,760
May eight for eight eight for Patriot fan confidence level.

2713
02:18:09,319 --> 02:18:12,079
Not a spectacular wee gets a child, That's what I'm saying.

2714
02:18:12,799 --> 02:18:15,600
God playoffs or a different animal. He's gonna finish second

2715
02:18:15,639 --> 02:18:18,719
in the MVP. You can't be a guy. You can't

2716
02:18:18,760 --> 02:18:20,520
be a Patriot fan who loves on a guy for

2717
02:18:20,639 --> 02:18:23,280
seventeen weeks and then he doesn't throw for three fifteen

2718
02:18:23,360 --> 02:18:24,959
four scores and think all of a sudden, the guy's

2719
02:18:25,000 --> 02:18:30,159
hot garbage thirty one touchdowns, eight picks for a few

2720
02:18:30,200 --> 02:18:34,639
as he does fumble the ball quite a bit. Hmmm.

2721
02:18:35,319 --> 02:18:37,760
First in the NFL in total QBR. You know what,

2722
02:18:37,879 --> 02:18:46,840
Eight's fine, It's fine. Now the difficult one. My answer

2723
02:18:46,959 --> 02:18:50,120
is going to be different than most. Give your answer.

2724
02:18:50,239 --> 02:18:51,719
This is going to be a wide ran. Then I'm

2725
02:18:51,760 --> 02:18:54,040
gonna give what I believe. The fan answer is six.

2726
02:18:55,440 --> 02:18:59,079
Fan answers five, one to ten. Confidence level on your quarterback. Now,

2727
02:18:59,120 --> 02:19:02,520
this is what we do average. We did an average.

2728
02:19:02,520 --> 02:19:03,959
It'd probably in a round five because there are people

2729
02:19:03,959 --> 02:19:05,799
who are like a one or two and want Davis

2730
02:19:05,840 --> 02:19:08,000
Mills in there, and then there's seven and eighths and say, hey,

2731
02:19:08,040 --> 02:19:10,559
get him a running game. Nico's not out there, and oh,

2732
02:19:10,600 --> 02:19:12,399
by the way, the offensive line, even though it's better,

2733
02:19:12,520 --> 02:19:14,639
is still average. It was so funny because I was

2734
02:19:14,680 --> 02:19:16,520
tweeting some on the game Monday, and I was getting

2735
02:19:16,719 --> 02:19:18,520
I was getting both sides. I was getting, you're being

2736
02:19:18,559 --> 02:19:20,319
too hard on CJ. Stroud and I was getting he

2737
02:19:20,399 --> 02:19:22,319
needs to be benched immediately, Davis Mills needs to be

2738
02:19:22,440 --> 02:19:25,479
in there. And here's a widespread Please, please, please do

2739
02:19:25,719 --> 02:19:28,879
not tell your friends, even if you're joking about how

2740
02:19:28,920 --> 02:19:31,520
you want to see Davis Mills on Sunday, it will

2741
02:19:31,680 --> 02:19:36,399
ruin what little football I qu have. What credibility. Yeah,

2742
02:19:36,399 --> 02:19:39,799
and your football street Craig goes very down down quickly.

2743
02:19:39,799 --> 02:19:43,920
If you want Davis Mills to start, oh, no questions starting,

2744
02:19:43,920 --> 02:19:49,000
which yeah, yeah I would. So you're saying your confidence

2745
02:19:49,079 --> 02:19:53,920
level is six, the average fan is five. I would

2746
02:19:54,000 --> 02:19:59,959
lean towards six because look, the fumbles I they weren't

2747
02:20:00,040 --> 02:20:03,120
a ring. They were not They were not a regular

2748
02:20:03,200 --> 02:20:05,680
habit of the team. There wasn't center quarterback exchanges.

2749
02:20:05,799 --> 02:20:05,879
Speaker 3: Now.

2750
02:20:05,959 --> 02:20:07,440
Speaker 1: Actually, you know what, in the more I think about that,

2751
02:20:07,920 --> 02:20:10,840
remember that ball that went through the lay arms of

2752
02:20:11,000 --> 02:20:12,440
him and then went right to what he marks for

2753
02:20:12,479 --> 02:20:15,319
a fumble recovery touchdown. That happened, Yes, And then there

2754
02:20:15,440 --> 02:20:18,040
was one that went to uh they they messed up

2755
02:20:18,079 --> 02:20:22,319
the snap with togy I. He didn't hand the ball off. Yeah, okay,

2756
02:20:22,360 --> 02:20:24,520
I can't use that. Then forget that there is a

2757
02:20:24,600 --> 02:20:27,040
chance for fumble issues. There just is. We have example.

2758
02:20:27,079 --> 02:20:29,559
We just gave examples plus marks. One was the I

2759
02:20:29,600 --> 02:20:31,520
think it was the center Jake Andrews or was it

2760
02:20:31,680 --> 02:20:32,239
he still him?

2761
02:20:32,319 --> 02:20:32,520
Speaker 13: Was here?

2762
02:20:32,680 --> 02:20:32,959
Speaker 5: Was he out?

2763
02:20:33,000 --> 02:20:35,760
Speaker 1: I can't remember whoever the center was thought they were

2764
02:20:35,799 --> 02:20:39,520
in shotgun and they weren't. So so the ball goes

2765
02:20:39,600 --> 02:20:41,920
on a fumble technically a fumble recovery to what he marks,

2766
02:20:41,959 --> 02:20:44,280
he scores when the NFL is like, that's not a

2767
02:20:44,600 --> 02:20:48,319
rushing touchdown, that's a that's a fumble recovery. Yeah, so

2768
02:20:48,680 --> 02:20:50,639
people on their famis, So let me ask you this

2769
02:20:50,799 --> 02:20:52,840
was that more on c J or Moore on the

2770
02:20:52,879 --> 02:20:55,399
center of the center. Yeah, that's to me. So, so

2771
02:20:56,159 --> 02:20:59,639
if you're gonna I don't think you, okay, go ahead,

2772
02:21:00,280 --> 02:21:08,840
five fumbles, Jesus, what's wrong with you? A lot? It's

2773
02:21:08,879 --> 02:21:11,200
gonna be better. CJ's gonna be better.

2774
02:21:12,079 --> 02:21:12,360
Speaker 5: You know what.

2775
02:21:12,440 --> 02:21:14,559
Speaker 1: I'm going up to a six point five? What's up?

2776
02:21:15,239 --> 02:21:21,639
I'm staying a six. Mike Rabel spoke today. We'll hear

2777
02:21:21,719 --> 02:21:25,120
him next Fire and Brimstone from Mike. Oh stop, how

02:21:31,239 --> 02:21:33,920
We'll discuss that next one. Twenty eight. Matt Thomas shows

02:21:41,200 --> 02:21:46,000
things about you were to you were to decide what

2784
02:21:46,079 --> 02:21:47,879
we're gonna go with Believe it or Not? We're doing

2785
02:21:48,079 --> 02:21:52,079
today yes, I figured out. All right, I try to

2786
02:21:52,079 --> 02:21:53,360
give you a promotion. Give you a chance to look

2787
02:21:53,360 --> 02:21:55,000
it up on Wikipedia. He's gonna help me out here,

2788
02:21:55,079 --> 02:21:56,360
all right, Rabel? Next one?

2789
02:21:56,719 --> 02:21:56,840
Speaker 9: Eight?

2790
02:22:00,479 --> 02:22:02,600
Speaker 1: All right, let's go let you hear what the coach

2791
02:22:02,680 --> 02:22:06,000
the Patriots had to say. My thought is this time

2792
02:22:06,040 --> 02:22:07,399
of the year, when you're down to four teams in

2793
02:22:07,440 --> 02:22:10,360
each conference, you're gonna hear a tremendous amount of coach speak.

2794
02:22:11,440 --> 02:22:15,319
Maybe Mike Rabel will prove us wrong. Let's hear from him.

2795
02:22:15,360 --> 02:22:18,280
We'll start first with he says something. Well, it's only

2796
02:22:18,399 --> 02:22:21,239
nine seconds. You want to do what you're talking about? Rabel? Okay,

2797
02:22:21,319 --> 02:22:24,920
what's that question? So he's gonna be like meat headed

2798
02:22:24,959 --> 02:22:26,639
coach guy. I don't know how. I don't know how

2799
02:22:26,639 --> 02:22:28,559
to approach these because I don't really know how he

2800
02:22:28,639 --> 02:22:30,760
does his press conferences, but I can guess he comes

2801
02:22:30,799 --> 02:22:34,680
across not meat headish but captain obvious. Okay, all right,

2802
02:22:34,760 --> 02:22:37,600
now here's the problem. Who slugged? This is a Dan

2803
02:22:37,760 --> 02:22:41,680
Matthews slug, which normally means he puts the entire quote

2804
02:22:41,680 --> 02:22:48,639
in there. I like this, Then go ahead, all right,

2805
02:22:49,399 --> 02:22:51,479
I'm gonna give you this first one because if this

2806
02:22:51,680 --> 02:22:55,360
slug matches exactly what he says, Dan, You're gonna get crushed. Okay,

2807
02:22:55,840 --> 02:22:58,479
you slug stuff to promote you don't slug The answer

2808
02:23:00,040 --> 02:23:02,680
nine seconds ross, Texans defense is for real. What do

2809
02:23:02,760 --> 02:23:05,520
you have to say about this? The Texans defense is

2810
02:23:05,559 --> 02:23:08,799
for real. They've been great all season long. They got

2811
02:23:08,840 --> 02:23:11,440
a lot of dogs and Miko Rans is a great coach.

2812
02:23:11,479 --> 02:23:13,559
Is nine seconds? Nine second? Stick with that.

2813
02:23:13,639 --> 02:23:18,440
Speaker 7: We're good, a great talent, great scheme.

2814
02:23:18,520 --> 02:23:21,799
Speaker 8: They play hard and respect how hard they play, and

2815
02:23:21,879 --> 02:23:25,239
they're just not only talented, but they have a play

2816
02:23:25,280 --> 02:23:26,520
demeanor that I can appreciate.

2817
02:23:29,600 --> 02:23:32,440
Speaker 1: I think I got it kind of close. Yeah, he said,

2818
02:23:32,479 --> 02:23:35,280
But do you say play demeanor play demeanor? Yes, as

2819
02:23:35,280 --> 02:23:37,159
a demeanor on the field, that's good. That's us.

2820
02:23:37,440 --> 02:23:39,799
Speaker 7: That's a vermeor that I can appreciate.

2821
02:23:39,920 --> 02:23:43,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, dogs, Yeah that's good. You got a terrible grade.

2822
02:23:43,239 --> 02:23:45,879
But whoever saw that? Nice job? I said. They play

2823
02:23:45,920 --> 02:23:48,760
hard and they're well coached. All right, that's what he

2824
02:23:48,840 --> 02:23:51,959
said twenty two seconds on which talking about Rabel. Okay,

2825
02:23:53,760 --> 02:23:57,479
Texans are improved on offense. What do you say, I

2826
02:23:57,600 --> 02:23:59,600
link if you look at where they were early in

2827
02:23:59,639 --> 02:24:01,360
the season into where they are now I've seen a

2828
02:24:01,399 --> 02:24:04,760
lot of improvement with the play calling, with the scheming. CJ.

2829
02:24:04,920 --> 02:24:07,680
Stroud is playing really well. The run game is doing good.

2830
02:24:07,840 --> 02:24:09,840
So we're going to have our hands full with an

2831
02:24:09,840 --> 02:24:11,319
offense that has much improved here.

2832
02:24:11,360 --> 02:24:14,159
Speaker 8: It is they're gaining confidence. They look like in a

2833
02:24:14,239 --> 02:24:16,479
run game and the physicality which they played with the

2834
02:24:16,559 --> 02:24:19,600
other night. And when you can do that, then Marrys

2835
02:24:19,639 --> 02:24:22,079
with you know, your play action opens up and your

2836
02:24:22,120 --> 02:24:25,280
space is over the middle, open up your boot game

2837
02:24:25,360 --> 02:24:26,360
and all Marry's together.

2838
02:24:26,760 --> 02:24:30,159
Speaker 7: So that to me looks like what they would want

2839
02:24:30,159 --> 02:24:32,000
to do, and a lot of success with it the

2840
02:24:32,079 --> 02:24:36,559
other night. But they they played physical, they ran a football.

2841
02:24:37,840 --> 02:24:39,760
Speaker 1: He's way more technical than I would have thought he

2842
02:24:39,840 --> 02:24:42,600
was going to be. Yeah, you lied to me. I

2843
02:24:42,680 --> 02:24:46,760
did lie to you. I didn't mean to put that

2844
02:24:46,879 --> 02:24:48,680
on the list. Last of the day from that time.

2845
02:24:48,680 --> 02:24:52,159
All right, and one more, Oh, this is going to

2846
02:24:52,200 --> 02:24:53,239
be good. Now? How many?

2847
02:24:53,479 --> 02:24:53,600
Speaker 5: Now?

2848
02:24:53,719 --> 02:24:57,040
Speaker 1: How many lives we detected in this following statement? Twenty

2849
02:24:57,319 --> 02:25:05,840
seven seconds? Okay, CJ poses problems for them. Yeah. CJ.

2850
02:25:06,000 --> 02:25:08,959
Stroud is a you know, a great quarterback and he's

2851
02:25:09,040 --> 02:25:11,799
extremely accurate. He can make plays with his arm, he

2852
02:25:11,879 --> 02:25:15,120
can make plays off schedule with his feet as well

2853
02:25:15,319 --> 02:25:18,399
extend the pocket. He's got a great feel for where

2854
02:25:18,440 --> 02:25:20,840
his guys are at, and it really does a good

2855
02:25:20,920 --> 02:25:23,600
job of running their offense and getting the guys where

2856
02:25:23,600 --> 02:25:25,360
they need to be. You're get five stars and just

2857
02:25:25,520 --> 02:25:25,920
go for it.

2858
02:25:26,319 --> 02:25:32,959
Speaker 8: He's athletic enough to extend, but also the pocket presence

2859
02:25:33,399 --> 02:25:35,280
and that you want. You know, he can he can

2860
02:25:35,319 --> 02:25:37,799
turn his back to the defense and come out of

2861
02:25:37,799 --> 02:25:38,879
there and throw play action.

2862
02:25:39,719 --> 02:25:41,440
Speaker 7: Does a good job on a boot game. He keeps

2863
02:25:41,479 --> 02:25:42,440
his eyes downfield.

2864
02:25:43,600 --> 02:25:47,680
Speaker 8: He's accurate, so he kind of gives you a little

2865
02:25:47,680 --> 02:25:50,239
bit of both as far as you know, the ability

2866
02:25:50,280 --> 02:25:55,159
to extend plays, but always keeping his eyes down the field.

2867
02:25:55,719 --> 02:26:00,840
Speaker 1: Good job by you, all right, Nice, good job by you.

2868
02:26:01,239 --> 02:26:01,559
All right?

2869
02:26:01,639 --> 02:26:01,879
Speaker 5: Is that it?

2870
02:26:02,600 --> 02:26:05,840
Speaker 1: Well, there's some more. Let's see. Is there anything else

2871
02:26:05,920 --> 02:26:10,719
that's overly juicy? Oh uh, he's a let's go to

2872
02:26:10,959 --> 02:26:15,159
cut one, Jonathan, if you don't mind, he apparently is

2873
02:26:15,200 --> 02:26:16,760
a not not gonna let you get You don't have

2874
02:26:16,760 --> 02:26:19,719
to worry about guessing this. He is a huge Alsi's

2875
02:26:19,799 --> 02:26:24,920
al Shire fan. Oh it's a great, great great linebacker,

2876
02:26:25,559 --> 02:26:29,520
plays downhill, plays hard, and he plays fast, but he

2877
02:26:29,600 --> 02:26:32,120
also plays smart. He's a good job. He's a good job,

2878
02:26:32,200 --> 02:26:34,920
and it does a great job of diagnosing plays, figuring

2879
02:26:34,959 --> 02:26:37,879
out what's going on, having everybody in the right place,

2880
02:26:38,319 --> 02:26:40,959
and then just plays with a lot of energy and force.

2881
02:26:42,440 --> 02:26:44,639
Speaker 7: Great leader, I mean he starts there. He's got great

2882
02:26:44,719 --> 02:26:48,200
leadership in the middle, a good skill set.

2883
02:26:48,440 --> 02:26:52,239
Speaker 8: And we talk about a journey Today's National Football League

2884
02:26:52,479 --> 02:26:56,440
and to a career and haven't been undrafted and his

2885
02:26:56,600 --> 02:26:58,120
story which is really special.

2886
02:26:58,239 --> 02:27:02,639
Speaker 7: And you know, I'll always appreciate the year that Tennessee

2887
02:27:02,840 --> 02:27:03,760
spent with us.

2888
02:27:04,959 --> 02:27:08,200
Speaker 8: Still stay in contact with him, So he's done a

2889
02:27:08,239 --> 02:27:11,040
lot for me personally, my family.

2890
02:27:11,200 --> 02:27:13,840
Speaker 7: So I always appreciate that. Wish nothing but the best

2891
02:27:13,879 --> 02:27:15,639
for him. He knows that.

2892
02:27:17,559 --> 02:27:20,120
Speaker 1: I didn't know that I forgot he played with Rabel.

2893
02:27:20,600 --> 02:27:23,000
By the way, don't you want to go to Rabel

2894
02:27:23,000 --> 02:27:25,120
and say you think you got any comments for Amy Kronk?

2895
02:27:27,319 --> 02:27:30,159
Why because he would like to playing the Titans. Yeah,

2896
02:27:30,200 --> 02:27:31,520
but wouldn't you like to say no, no, no, no,

2897
02:27:31,600 --> 02:27:34,120
no no. By the way, your your side is winning

2898
02:27:34,159 --> 02:27:36,399
the poll, not that I was against you. Who is

2899
02:27:36,479 --> 02:27:39,600
she rooting against hardest seventy Texans?

2900
02:27:40,239 --> 02:27:40,360
Speaker 5: Oh?

2901
02:27:40,479 --> 02:27:44,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, no? Or against Rabel? Rabel. She'll root against hard

2902
02:27:44,440 --> 02:27:49,760
next week if they win, which I don't think they are. Yeah,

2903
02:27:49,879 --> 02:27:55,040
she just she really hates the Texans. At least they

2904
02:27:55,079 --> 02:27:57,479
stopped wearing Oilers gear because they got embarrassed every time

2905
02:27:57,520 --> 02:27:59,239
they tried to wear it against the Texans. Because here's

2906
02:27:59,280 --> 02:28:04,399
the thing, you will there will be two generations of

2907
02:28:04,680 --> 02:28:08,079
Houston football fans that will come after her, the Texans

2908
02:28:08,120 --> 02:28:10,520
fans of that generation, yes, and the old school Order fans.

2909
02:28:11,600 --> 02:28:16,680
You did something that the Adams family never could do. Now,

2910
02:28:16,680 --> 02:28:18,120
there were a lot of good times. I mean, look,

2911
02:28:18,159 --> 02:28:20,120
I grew up with the Orders. We talked about that

2912
02:28:20,159 --> 02:28:24,479
at nauseum. Bury the Oilers. When Texans need to win

2913
02:28:24,799 --> 02:28:26,959
to help further bury the Oilers. They haven't played in

2914
02:28:26,959 --> 02:28:31,360
the game. What was the ninety six they left thirty years? Yeah,

2915
02:28:31,360 --> 02:28:33,399
I've long been I'm not telling you, Matty. There's a

2916
02:28:33,399 --> 02:28:35,000
lot of people hanging on and got mad at me

2917
02:28:35,079 --> 02:28:37,879
when I said they needed to let go. No, it's

2918
02:28:38,040 --> 02:28:40,559
it's actually frankly easy to let go because look, the

2919
02:28:40,680 --> 02:28:45,760
organization's a good hands. I mean, Hannah's running things, Demiko,

2920
02:28:45,799 --> 02:28:48,200
you get the football side. Nick's done a good enough

2921
02:28:48,280 --> 02:28:50,760
job as a general manager. Rick Asario, I think deserves

2922
02:28:50,799 --> 02:28:53,520
some a lot of praise. I think somebody I saw

2923
02:28:53,719 --> 02:28:55,799
within the last three twenty of the twenty two starters

2924
02:28:55,920 --> 02:28:58,600
have been added to the Texans within the last three years.

2925
02:29:01,000 --> 02:29:04,840
They're in the divisional round. Look you good. Yeah, And

2926
02:29:05,399 --> 02:29:07,920
there are some misses, of course that we can point to. Well,

2927
02:29:08,200 --> 02:29:11,319
you know, in fairness to Nick, nobody's gonna have shot

2928
02:29:11,399 --> 02:29:13,799
himself allegedly. It's not his fault. You know what the

2929
02:29:13,840 --> 02:29:16,120
best part is, you're coming around to that. It's just

2930
02:29:16,239 --> 02:29:19,079
funny to say, did you hear that? It's just ridiculous?

2931
02:29:19,120 --> 02:29:21,440
And you hear that he's coming around. He would even

2932
02:29:21,559 --> 02:29:24,079
utter that phrase five days ago, and now I was like, okay,

2933
02:29:24,120 --> 02:29:26,840
maybe a chance. It sounds so insane. You're starting to complete.

2934
02:29:27,879 --> 02:29:29,040
Have you been around the NFL?

2935
02:29:29,200 --> 02:29:29,639
Speaker 13: Yes, I have.

2936
02:29:30,159 --> 02:29:32,760
Speaker 1: You can only name me one player ever who shot

2937
02:29:32,879 --> 02:29:35,479
himself and it was Plexico Burst in a nightclub. Let

2938
02:29:35,520 --> 02:29:37,479
me tell you we got we got NFL players hanging

2939
02:29:37,479 --> 02:29:40,520
out with porn stars. We have people shooting that. Stay

2940
02:29:40,559 --> 02:29:42,440
with me in this how many other shooting Well, there

2941
02:29:42,520 --> 02:29:45,280
was some shooting incidents with Marvin Harrison, Lots of shooting incidents,

2942
02:29:45,399 --> 02:29:49,360
lots of robberies. Yeah, Tank Dale got shot. Yeah we

2943
02:29:49,719 --> 02:29:53,959
Jalen Reed got got a he he got car jack

2944
02:29:54,079 --> 02:29:57,360
robbed and Carjack was that in Houston? We got speeding incidents.

2945
02:29:58,159 --> 02:30:00,600
We have players that are always saying I can't believe

2946
02:30:00,639 --> 02:30:03,000
I ingested that when you know exactly what you did.

2947
02:30:03,719 --> 02:30:11,760
Stop be kind of crazy but certainly believable. I'm sorry.

2948
02:30:12,600 --> 02:30:15,319
I'm not saying it happened because Lord knowsy Texans haven't

2949
02:30:15,399 --> 02:30:19,239
told us anything about that. But I'm not discounting it now, Okay,

2950
02:30:21,000 --> 02:30:23,760
because why we're we're going back down this road again.

2951
02:30:23,799 --> 02:30:27,920
Why would you if you don't hide normally. Yeah, I'm

2952
02:30:27,959 --> 02:30:30,840
with you. That's something bad, something off the big board,

2953
02:30:30,879 --> 02:30:33,639
as we said, something in the field. Now, unless he

2954
02:30:33,719 --> 02:30:36,159
went in there and called him a Nicosi on m or,

2955
02:30:36,280 --> 02:30:39,159
I mean then you could also say conduct detrimental of

2956
02:30:39,200 --> 02:30:41,639
the team. Done. Bye see you. No, it's not yeah

2957

2959
02:30:49,559 --> 02:30:54,639

2960
02:30:54,719 --> 02:30:58,280

2963
02:31:09,079 --> 02:31:12,760
he has a whole legal issues segment on his Wikipedia

2964
02:31:12,799 --> 02:31:17,879
for god twenty fourteen misdemeanor assault charge. That was when

2965
02:31:19,239 --> 02:31:24,000

2966
02:31:24,040 --> 02:31:29,680
