Speaker 1: Let's talk a little sports. So look at this, we
Speaker 1: already have the chat room going. Panthers are fired up.
Speaker 1: The Panthers are up five to one. If you didn't
Speaker 1: catch it earlier, that tonight we had the Fire Up
Speaker 1: Florida show and Scott, you were talking with Meri Day
Speaker 1: and Rod and where was Rod.
Speaker 6: At Rod was live and Sunrise Florida giving us up
Speaker 6: dates on that and doing our show on site. Good
Speaker 6: stuff by Rod Peters and Mark mere Day came on
Speaker 6: and Mark and Ronni beyond twice a month on Fire
Speaker 6: Up Florida and when I do it the other two weeks,
Speaker 6: I don't know tvd it.
Speaker 2: I think it was a good show.
Speaker 6: We had a lot of chemistry there and you know,
Speaker 6: I mean in fact, man that Rod was at the
Speaker 6: arena added a nice It was a good look in
Speaker 6: the fact they was at the game refording live from
Speaker 6: the arena.
Speaker 2: Great stuff. Thanks for bringing up candy of course.
Speaker 1: Of course, earlier this week we had our first seat
Speaker 1: college football Playoff bracket projection. It included in the title
Speaker 1: of our show tonight in cam wore the Hurricanes trust.
Speaker 1: The Hurricanes were ranked fourth and just no, I take
Speaker 1: that back. They were ranked third in the seated third
Speaker 1: in the bracket. We were covering the Hurricanes after the
Speaker 1: Duke game this last week, and Scott, you want to
Speaker 1: talk a little bit because you're the one that asked
Speaker 1: the question before the video we're going to play here, Yeah.
Speaker 2: A video we'll play.
Speaker 6: We'll talk about the successful two point conversion that cam
Speaker 6: Ward was able to pull off the hurt. If you
Speaker 6: succeed with that two point conversion, you get the eight points,
Speaker 6: then what ends up happening there is the Kneser to
Speaker 6: a field goal to tie the game when Duke was
Speaker 6: up by eleven, and everything played out very nicely. And
Speaker 6: you know cam had an unbelievable answer to my question
Speaker 6: as you're going to hear in just a moment.
Speaker 1: Okay, so let's play the clip.
Speaker 2: How was that two point conversion for you?
Speaker 6: Knowing it a point where you brought it to eight points,
Speaker 6: you scored the eight ind had only three to go
Speaker 6: to get the field goal as perhaps even at turning
Speaker 6: point the game to get the momentum shifted your way.
Speaker 2: Because only needs one more stop. We did score the
Speaker 2: Benita games.
Speaker 8: So that Big Tom does a good play called coach
Speaker 8: Thasson and Miry Ball putting that in last minute on
Speaker 8: probably Thursday to put it in so you know we
Speaker 8: asked you to and play. It just shows the mindset
Speaker 8: of our offense. We can take things last minute and
Speaker 8: you know, implicate them to the game. Hey, everybody did
Speaker 8: their job. Holine got a hat on the hat. They
Speaker 8: did their job for taking me all day well more
Speaker 8: if you ask for playing around a whole lot like that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, all right, I'll I'll say about cam Ward, he'll
Speaker 6: be one of the top quarterbacks taking in the twenty
Speaker 6: twenty five NFL draft. Seeing him this year, this guy
Speaker 6: is absolutely a special talent. He really really is. Mario
Speaker 6: Crystabal recruited him, I believe, from Washington State, and boy,
Speaker 6: you talk about an unbelievable job. Mario Crystabal to bring
Speaker 6: this guy if you haven't seen him, whatever town lands
Speaker 6: up with him. If you've got the right coaching situation,
Speaker 6: you're gonna get yourself an actually quarterback. He's a dual threat.
Speaker 6: Let alone the fact that he can score. Let me
Speaker 6: give you some stance about cam Or this season, He's
Speaker 6: got three thirty three hundred and thirty three yards I
Speaker 6: like that number, and thirty three touchdowns. So there you
Speaker 6: have a thirty three touchdowns versus three three hundred and
Speaker 6: thirty three totally yards. What else can I say? The
Speaker 6: guy is awfully good.
Speaker 1: Scott they call Miami Hurricanes quarterback college, don't they for football?
Speaker 1: And how many touchdowns does he have this year?
Speaker 2: Thirty three?
Speaker 1: And didn't he now overtake all previous quarterbacks for a
Speaker 1: single season record.
Speaker 6: I haven't looked that deep into it. I'm only going
Speaker 6: by the stats that he's got in his only year here.
Speaker 6: But I'm going to tell you right now he did
Speaker 6: make a valid point.
Speaker 2: O Canny.
Speaker 6: I covered the Miami Hurricanes back in the early eighties,
Speaker 6: is what I did. And I had the opportunity to
Speaker 6: see Jim Kelly and Bernie Cozar play. And you know,
Speaker 6: Jim Kelly put the program on the map and an
Speaker 6: opportunity to be recruited by Penn State, but they want
Speaker 6: him as a linebacker. Howard Schellenberger says, you can play
Speaker 6: quarterback down here if you want to. Jim bolt in
Speaker 6: the southward of the rest is history. Brettan Cosar led
Speaker 6: him to the national championship. And as he talked about
Speaker 6: some of the other actually quarterbacks that came out with
Speaker 6: Gino Torretto, Vinnie Testa, Vernie and the list goes on
Speaker 6: and on. There you go, this university is able to
Speaker 6: produce a lot of quarterbacks, and they got a Dandy
Speaker 6: coming out next year.
Speaker 1: I believe he tied the record.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't go that deep into it.
Speaker 6: I just wanted to get to the numbers as they
Speaker 6: stand right now. And the fact that you got all
Speaker 6: threes to it makes me even happier because our first
Speaker 6: show today went thirty three minutes. And for those people
Speaker 6: that wonder why I'm big on threes, thirty three is
Speaker 6: my lucky number? And why is thirty three my lucky number?
Speaker 6: My first super Bowl? Like cover a super Bowl thirty three?
Speaker 3: He's got a question for you. Yeah, go ahead, you're
Speaker 3: all hyped over this camp guy. What if he turns
Speaker 3: out and Jeremy can agree with me on this, what
Speaker 3: if he turns out to be like he picket in
Speaker 3: the NFL.
Speaker 2: Well, that's an excellent question. It really is. Fact of
Speaker 2: matter is I think he has a lot more all
Speaker 2: around skills in Kenny Pickett.
Speaker 6: He can run, he can use his legs a lot,
Speaker 6: he can stay in the pocket, and he's so far
Speaker 6: ahead of what he's doing right now.
Speaker 2: It's the valid question.
Speaker 6: I know that Kenny Pickett is big up in Pittsburgh
Speaker 6: and they shuffled him out to Philadelphia, But I love
Speaker 6: the way Cam worked to just simply take over a
Speaker 6: game with his legs. And they've had let's tell you what,
Speaker 6: Miami's a SEC schedule hasn't been easy. They've been challenged
Speaker 6: quite a few times, but he's been able to have
Speaker 6: a lot of those comeback.
Speaker 2: From behind wins. Is what he's done.
Speaker 6: And meanwhile, the Hurricanes are currently undefeated as they head
Speaker 6: up to Atlanta to take on Georgia Tech this weekend.
Speaker 3: Hopefully he does good to combine.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you will.
Speaker 6: You know, I don't think there's a doubt some area,
Speaker 6: some city is going to be glad that this guy's
Speaker 6: on their roster. All I can say is, don't screw
Speaker 6: them up. Make sure you have a good coaching system. Jeremy,
Speaker 6: you know about coaching systems, how they can wreck quarterbacks
Speaker 6: all day long. How many times we talked about it
Speaker 6: on all of our shows, right, countless of times.
Speaker 7: And that is the problem with most top five quarterbacks.
Speaker 7: They're going to a team that has a bad culture
Speaker 7: or doesn't have a good coach right off the rip.
Speaker 7: So while we can want him to be hyped up
Speaker 7: and be one of those top five quarterbacks, you almost
Speaker 7: want him to go in the team, the mediocre teams
Speaker 7: where they usually have a decent staff and they're missing
Speaker 7: ape or two.
Speaker 9: And I'm gonna say this for a reason.
Speaker 7: If you look at his record when he was with
Speaker 7: Wazoo up there at Washington State University, he was putting
Speaker 7: up good numbers. They just had a crappy defense and
Speaker 7: crappy coaching, right, So the games they won were mostly
Speaker 7: due to him taking over the game. All right, So
Speaker 7: I'm backing you up that he deserves to be a
Speaker 7: first round quarterback. I'm just hoping he doesn't go in
Speaker 7: the top right, because that ruin his NFL career.
Speaker 6: Hey, Jeremy, you're so far on target. It's ridiculous. It
Speaker 6: really is the fact that he has a great defense
Speaker 6: down here and a great supporting cast let alone with
Speaker 6: dynamite coach and Mario Christal. Bear in mind Mario crist
Speaker 6: before he came to Miami coach at Oregon and he
Speaker 6: actually was able to win it Florida International University. I
Speaker 6: don't know if he has a winning record, but he
Speaker 6: did take him to a bull game. Taking a FIU
Speaker 6: to a bull game is big stuff. It really really is.
Speaker 2: FIU.
Speaker 6: I'm talking about people, Oh, yeah, bull game. But yeah,
Speaker 6: there's no question. I know you're backing me up. But
Speaker 6: the reality of the situation is a complete player. He
Speaker 6: can use his legs, pensman, let alone the fact that
Speaker 6: he has a great arm and he has he goes
Speaker 6: through all his progressions. The guy's an actually quarterback. Just
Speaker 6: hope he doesn't land in the wrong situation, which we've
Speaker 6: seen all too many times. You see, I'll see him
Speaker 6: again in a couple of weeks or so. And obviously
Speaker 6: the college football playoff Miami wins out there, certainly going
Speaker 6: to be able to go deeper. We'll they take them
Speaker 6: one game at the time, Georgia text on the docket
Speaker 6: and we get wake for and believe on the twenty third.
Speaker 3: Hopefully he doesn't go to Cleveland with Kevin Stansky now
Speaker 3: he has quarterbacks.
Speaker 2: Oh don't say that.
Speaker 6: I'd rather eat a four minute crow cheese sandwich and
Speaker 6: see him go over to Cleveland.
Speaker 2: Seriously, really, prisby and send them there.
Speaker 3: No, I know.
Speaker 1: So cam Ward has officially tied for the single season
Speaker 1: passing touchdowns of Hurricane history. He is tied with Steve
Speaker 1: Walsh twenty nine. They're ahead of Ken Dorsey, Vinnie Tester Verdi,
Speaker 1: Bernie Cozar, just a name, a couple, Ken Dorsey, I
Speaker 1: mean a couple of just the names some of the
Speaker 1: big names that have been preceded him in Hurricanes history.
Speaker 1: Just to give you guys an idea, so.
Speaker 3: Pretty good company, a lot of legends of legends.
Speaker 1: He is and he is in the Heisman candidate pool.
Speaker 1: Let's put it that way.
Speaker 6: So it would be a crime if he doesn't win
Speaker 6: that stupid Hydend trophy. I think it's the most overrated
Speaker 6: trophy on the planet. Anyways, I don't care. Don't win it,
Speaker 6: so what don't worry about. You have a better pro career.
Speaker 6: I've never seen the trophy in my life more hype
Speaker 6: than that stupid thing.
Speaker 3: I think Spencer get it.
Speaker 2: What's that?
Speaker 3: I think Spencer Howard's going to get it.
Speaker 2: Good, he can have it. I'm gonna.
Speaker 6: Yeah, just go well, okay, just all I want can
Speaker 6: to do is just carry the Lombardi Trophy, keep the
Speaker 6: hydmen who cares eim Er, Travis Hunter. Okay, good now
Speaker 6: you're now you're speaking my language early.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right, Scott.
Speaker 5: There hasn't been too many Heisman Trophy winners as have
Speaker 5: actually made it in the NFL.
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I don't like the numbers.
Speaker 6: The one Heisman Trophy winner that did win a Super Bowl,
Speaker 6: it's going back a long ways of Jim Plunkett.
Speaker 2: But he didn't do it with the Patriots. He did
Speaker 2: it with the Oakland Raiders at the time.
Speaker 3: The last one was Cam Newton, I think.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but he didn't win the Super Bowl though he
Speaker 6: got to the Super Bowl, did win.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you've got to talk about getting to the Super Bowl.
Speaker 7: A lot of them have made it there, but none
Speaker 7: of them have won it other than Jim Blunkett.
Speaker 6: Thanks, Jeremy, appreciate it, buddy. No, it's the truth.
Speaker 2: He's right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, yeah, I know, I got you.
Speaker 1: So how are we feeling about the bracket for the
Speaker 1: college football Playoffs? Any surprises or disappointments in the so
Speaker 1: I can tell you if you don't know right now.
Speaker 1: The number one seed is Oregon, two is Georgia, three
Speaker 1: is Miami, four is BYU, fifth is Ohio State. They
Speaker 1: would take on number twelve Boise State. Eight, Tennessee would
Speaker 1: take on nine Indiana. Six, Texas would take on eleven Alabama. Seven,
Speaker 1: Penn State would take on ten Notre Dame any surprises
Speaker 1: in there where people were teams were seated or disappointments.
Speaker 1: I mean, let's face it, Indiana is at nine, but
Speaker 1: yet they're undefeated this year.
Speaker 3: That's the only surprise I have.
Speaker 9: That's the surprise I have.
Speaker 7: All those teams that lost should not be ahead of
Speaker 7: Indiana in that bracket. That's just the way I feel,
Speaker 7: because if you're undefeated and you're in a Power five conference,
Speaker 7: guess what you belong in those top five stops.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm not going to put any stock in it.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you why.
Speaker 6: I'm not going to put any stock at number one
Speaker 6: by us in it. I believe it's their first year
Speaker 6: in the Big twelve. And guess what, Oklahoma isn't in
Speaker 6: there because they're getting their butt kicked in the Southeastern
Speaker 6: Conference and they could have been in the College Football
Speaker 6: Playoff had they have stayed in the Big twelve. So
Speaker 6: get used to Oklahoma for being a whipping boy in
Speaker 6: the Southeastern Conference. And I've always thought the PYU has
Speaker 6: an excellent program. That's as far as I'm going to go.
Speaker 6: I want to see it when it's I don't care
Speaker 6: about the first bracket. I only to turn about the
Speaker 6: last one. Indiana will say, you.
Speaker 4: Know, I like Indiana, That's why I like.
Speaker 6: Basketball school or not, I don't know, but I will
Speaker 6: tell you that they have a great coach. So that
Speaker 6: came from James Manison and he's on the next job.
Speaker 7: There after seeing what happened at Oregon and also what
Speaker 7: happened versus Penn State.
Speaker 9: Lois State is an awful matchup for os U.
Speaker 7: They struggled with backling in the run game, and I
Speaker 7: think Ashton gend would run all over that defense and
Speaker 7: make him cry.
Speaker 1: I will say, I am. I will say I'm a
Speaker 1: little biased. I'm disappointed that Indiana isn't further and Scott
Speaker 1: not for the reason that you think, but because one
Speaker 1: of the girls that I went to high school with,
Speaker 1: her son actually plays on the team.
Speaker 4: So that's cool.
Speaker 2: But it's only the first week.
Speaker 1: Can I understand? I understand.
Speaker 7: And that's the other thing. We got still some time left,
Speaker 7: we got it. There's still time left. All this can
Speaker 7: change their tenth week. They're going into the eleventh right right,
Speaker 7: and everybody's had the week off already, so you're talking
Speaker 7: about nine games played for most teams, so all that
Speaker 7: can change real quick in the next three games. What's
Speaker 7: the conference championship?
Speaker 3: If you think about it, I think that Indiana should
Speaker 3: go down to seventh. Penn State should go to ninth
Speaker 3: because they lost to Ohio State on Saturday. Antiana is undefeated,
Speaker 3: so and the SEC is getting too much credit.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 9: There's a couple of other teams that could Georgia.
Speaker 5: George has been in some dog fights this year. Yeah,
Speaker 5: they've been as dominating as they normally are.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: They had a trouble with Alburn and uh.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, man, I can't win in Tennessee.
Speaker 5: The number there, Scott, let's ask Sarcassians got Alabama's number
Speaker 5: now down here in Tennessee.
Speaker 9: Yeah, not only that, but Bandy beat him.
Speaker 2: Hell I was about to save Yeah, I said, yeah.
Speaker 9: Nashville schools they're tough evidently.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Well you got the Bills beating the Bama Nashville and Knoxville.
Speaker 2: If you get the pun yep mm hmm.
Speaker 1: Okay, who wants to talk a little NFL always anybody
Speaker 1: want to talk about some of those trades?
Speaker 7: Anybody, Well, I'm having Well, let's talk about the first
Speaker 7: trade in the NFL. And I'm gonna say it right now,
Speaker 7: it was Jonathan Mingo to the Dallas Cowboys. We're talking
Speaker 7: about a guy who's had fifty five receptions, five and
Speaker 7: thirty nine yards, zero touchdown and a forty nine point
Speaker 7: five percent. Right, you want to know what that equals
Speaker 7: out of the seventy two wide receivers that have fought
Speaker 7: fifty plus touchdowns. The worst wide receiver out of all
Speaker 7: seventy two.
Speaker 6: So, Jeremy, let me ask you a question. Who made
Speaker 6: the trade? An eighty two year old general manager.
Speaker 9: Who got flee for a fourth round pick.
Speaker 2: Seriously, really, yeah, has got.
Speaker 7: A seventh rounder and the worst wide receiver in the NFL.
Speaker 7: Maybe they plan on converting him to running back because
Speaker 7: he can't be worse than Ezekiel Elliott and Dalvin Cook
Speaker 7: this year.
Speaker 6: Please, an eighty two year old general manager making a
Speaker 6: trade deadline move and he gave up draft capital for
Speaker 6: da and let alone the fact that Dak isn't going
Speaker 6: to be playing because Dallas is rushing to get Cooper
Speaker 6: in there to play this week and a man by
Speaker 6: the name of Lance is going to be his backup.
Speaker 7: Yep, Dat Prescott has a martially corned hamstring right from
Speaker 7: the bone.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 3: Supposedly.
Speaker 9: No, it confirmed.
Speaker 3: He faked it.
Speaker 7: No, it was confirmed last night on NFL dot Com. Okay,
Speaker 7: and uh, he's going back tomorrow to see if he
Speaker 7: needs surgery to repair it.
Speaker 9: If you need surgery, he's done for the year.
Speaker 6: You know, the craziest scenario can actually happen here. Cooper
Speaker 6: Rush does win football games and then that money that
Speaker 6: Dallas dak oh my goodness or a yeah, let's let's
Speaker 6: go back to the beloved late dick Enburg. His favorite
Speaker 6: same as words were, oh.
Speaker 3: My, he almost beat Philly last year.
Speaker 2: Well, most true, he's quarterback.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: But here's the thing I want everybody to know on
Speaker 6: this panel. If Cooper Rush does quite well with the Cowboys,
Speaker 6: he will be a heavily sought hat for quarterback on
Speaker 6: free agents. If he is available in free agency, he will.
Speaker 6: This is Cooper Rush's opportunity to get that better paycheck
Speaker 6: and leave Dallas just to watch.
Speaker 3: Starting no.
Speaker 4: Starting Trey Lances backup.
Speaker 3: I wasn't sure if I wasn't sure if trade was
Speaker 3: starting or not.
Speaker 7: The other trade I want to talk about because there
Speaker 7: was two for the Steelers, and one was a very
Speaker 7: good trade. I think it was actually even value and
Speaker 7: that was the Mike Williams trade.
Speaker 9: Well, the other one was even value. In another way.
Speaker 7: You stole Preston Smith for a seventh rounder, but they
Speaker 7: had to trade him away as a salary jump because
Speaker 7: of his salary going up so much next year because
Speaker 7: of them signing Jordan Love, who's on a three to
Speaker 7: two touchdown to interception ratio this year and quite possibly
Speaker 7: might have to miss a couple of games.
Speaker 1: Yes, he has played injured all year. He is since
Speaker 1: since Week one when he got injured over in Brazil.
Speaker 1: He has not been healthy. That is true. So but
Speaker 1: in the same breath the games that he hasn't played,
Speaker 1: Milik Willis has stepped right in and we've won every
Speaker 1: game Malik Willis played in. So I honestly I understand.
Speaker 1: This past weekend we played Detroit. It was a rival game,
Speaker 1: it was a conference game, but under the weather conditions,
Speaker 1: I was really surprised that they had Love in there
Speaker 1: in the first place. But I'm not the proach.
Speaker 7: Oh that's Jordan Loves Lions player on the field.
Speaker 1: You're killing me, Jay, You're killing me.
Speaker 5: The two traits that the Steelers made, I thought, you know,
Speaker 5: they got a second receiver to compliment Pickings. And then
Speaker 5: we've got this Preston Smith, who is a really good
Speaker 5: supposedly a good compliment to you know, t J. Watt
Speaker 5: and Alex high Smith and all that. And we need
Speaker 5: some depth there. We have we have some guys out
Speaker 5: on injury and some guys stinking up the joint and
Speaker 5: you know that that, you know, we need some help
Speaker 5: at the defensive line position. He can play like a
Speaker 5: defensive end position in a linebacker outside linebackers.
Speaker 6: Well, Ralph, you could thank Aaron Rodgers, a general manager,
Speaker 6: for getting you that receiver, yes, because he ran a
Speaker 6: route that Rogers didn't like, right, Jeremy, and then put
Speaker 6: him out of the unreal.
Speaker 4: Oh Yeah.
Speaker 7: What I have to say about Mike Williams is he's
Speaker 7: clearly the one thing that they don't have in the
Speaker 7: wide receiver room.
Speaker 9: He's another Pat Bryer move.
Speaker 7: He's a big bodied receiver that does good contested catches
Speaker 7: in a red zone dress we haven't the Steelers don't
Speaker 7: have that other than Friar Moot right now.
Speaker 3: Really we need another Keith Miller.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what we need.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you.
Speaker 7: Got Friar Moth, who's it? Damn good fight and as
Speaker 7: far as I'm concerned. And now you get Mike Williams,
Speaker 7: who's an older, wiser wide receiver. I don't have a good,
Speaker 7: good contested catch rate. And he will be that guy
Speaker 7: in the red zone for you, is what I think.
Speaker 3: But he did he use Washington more often. I don't
Speaker 3: understand why we don't. Every time he does, he gets
Speaker 3: like five ten yards. That's all we need, Candy.
Speaker 9: What do you think the Rogers from JAHI.
Speaker 6: All right, missus country club, give us. Tell us what
Speaker 6: you're really thinking. I don't think you be at relaxed.
Speaker 1: Rogers. Rogers, Rogers, Uh.
Speaker 3: This kelt double check.
Speaker 9: I have my own nickname for that one.
Speaker 6: I like that you might make it in his business
Speaker 6: after all business and stuff.
Speaker 3: You know it? You know it. Oh, I forgot one thing, Scott,
Speaker 3: just don't check that.
Speaker 6: Cannes a future for you on fire up. Let me
Speaker 6: tell you this is the Candies country Club. Everybody, we'll
Speaker 6: get along.
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 6: Jeremy, you know what he found the landae fot there
Speaker 6: on the country club.
Speaker 2: Good stuff. I recruit the.
Speaker 3: Best kidd He has no reaction whatsoever.
Speaker 7: That's tonight, say my thought, Rogers, because I'll tell you
Speaker 7: exactly what I think. Since he came back from injury,
Speaker 7: he's inconsistent. One week he looked like the Rogers of Old,
Speaker 7: the next time he looks like he's Caleb Williams behind
Speaker 7: the Bear's old line against the good team. Because what
Speaker 7: have we seen when they faced any team with a
Speaker 7: plus five hundred record or at five hundred records?
Speaker 9: What have we seen out of Caleb Williams?
Speaker 4: No? Nothing?
Speaker 7: And so what's enough? What are the Jets going to
Speaker 7: face this week? They got lucky and beat the Texas,
Speaker 7: But that's because the Texans came to New York.
Speaker 1: Thanks Fernando, and you want to.
Speaker 7: I can give you the numbers on why they were lucky.
Speaker 7: Right now, with their starting left guard out and they're
Speaker 7: right starting right back out, Jordan Love is the fourth
Speaker 7: most sacked quarterback in the NFL right now. He is
Speaker 7: twenty fourth in QBR versus the blitz. The Texans defense
Speaker 7: are thirtieth in red zone defense, which means when teams
Speaker 7: get in the red zone, they're scoring at a sixty
Speaker 7: nine point six slip.
Speaker 2: You know what, I can't wait till we get Baalrick.
Speaker 6: Actually, any college football press box with these stats that
Speaker 6: he comes out, he might become a better writer than
Speaker 6: he already is. My goodness, give him some stuff and
Speaker 6: this guy will play down. He's progressing well in the system,
Speaker 6: right ball, right, I'm serious. Well, we're working that during
Speaker 6: the offseason, Jeremy, we're gonna get you in a press love.
Speaker 2: You're long overdue.
Speaker 9: So Jay, I believe.
Speaker 1: That decision making it is. It has been his fault,
Speaker 1: although he hasn't been completely healthy, and I don't think
Speaker 1: he's been protected like some other quarterbacks have been either.
Speaker 1: So I think he's been under a lot of pressure.
Speaker 1: And let's face it, that last Oh I'm under pressure,
Speaker 1: let me like dink it thinking he got it over everybody.
Speaker 1: He didn't. And it was a pick six for Detroit.
Speaker 1: If you look at and I'm gonna say this, if
Speaker 1: you look at the total yards for Detroit versus green Bay,
Speaker 1: green Bay should have won that game hands down if
Speaker 1: you were looking at just yards, just yards.
Speaker 7: But that's what a Ben don't break defense does, right,
Speaker 7: Do you know what this Bion's defense looks like?
Speaker 9: This year?
Speaker 7: Not the first time the Patriots won the Super Bowl
Speaker 7: with Brady, the second one where they were twenty eighth
Speaker 7: in yardage fifteenth in rushing defense, but they were number
Speaker 7: one in red zone defense that year. They're a ben
Speaker 7: don't break defense, which is what the fourth five in
Speaker 7: press man coverage is getting is based upon. It's a
Speaker 7: ben don't break man coverage. So once, if you're in
Speaker 7: man coverage and you shrink that field the less than
Speaker 7: twenty yards plus the end zone which is thirty yards,
Speaker 7: doesn't that make that secondary's jaba back of a lot easier.
Speaker 7: That's why the Lions have only given up six passing
Speaker 7: touchdowns and eight rushing touchdowns this year. Fourteen total touchdowns
Speaker 7: is what's been scored against them. You know what's funny,
Speaker 7: they got fourteen touchdowns out of the backfield room.
Speaker 3: Whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa wha. Jake, can you pull
Speaker 3: that one? Can't keep pull that one coming up?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 3: Well some times, yeah, that one. He is ten times
Speaker 3: better than Jordan Love.
Speaker 4: Come on, John Alway, absolutely, come.
Speaker 2: On, Jay, I wanna go there.
Speaker 7: Well, there's there's a difference here. We're talking about a
Speaker 7: guy that's in what is twelve thirteenth season now, and
Speaker 7: in Russell Wilson, and you're talking about a guy that's
Speaker 7: in his fifth year and his second year starting in
Speaker 7: the NFL. So you know what he is compared to
Speaker 7: Russell Wilson, a baby and he's playing like a baby.
Speaker 6: That's a good point, Yeah, it really is. But let
Speaker 6: me expound upon your point though, Jeremy, you know two years.
Speaker 6: I think that's exactly what and I repeat, what should happen.
Speaker 6: A lot of these guys should be carrying the clipperd
Speaker 6: for one or two years. But the fact that matters,
Speaker 6: you're not developing guys. Everybody wants a quick fix, and unfortunately,
Speaker 6: the way these kids are coming up, they're just not
Speaker 6: gonna get it no matter how many times do you
Speaker 6: think you're gonna try. Very few times as a quarterback
Speaker 6: come out of the gate like Gangbuster. You have Jane
Speaker 6: Daniels as a rarity coming out this year, certainly for
Speaker 6: so much better start than Caleb Williams. But the reality
Speaker 6: is there aren't many quarterbacks that come out there and
Speaker 6: get it right away. But I'm going to say I've
Speaker 6: covered this leap for over four decades. It's about the
Speaker 6: system that you get and the biggest part about the
Speaker 6: whole thing is not only is the system, you also
Speaker 6: want to have stability in the coaching area as well,
Speaker 6: and that's where a lot of these guys.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, Chase fired me up over here.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I know, that's what he does. He likes
Speaker 7: being controversial. He's a good guy though, I know.
Speaker 3: I understand that. But twelfth year is not old town.
Speaker 3: Brady was was solid in his twentieth.
Speaker 7: Since the year two thousand and the age, the average
Speaker 7: age of retired quarterback has increased from thirty two to
Speaker 7: thirty eight.
Speaker 2: Good number, chereman, I like that.
Speaker 7: Well, yeah, yeah, Tom Brady's not normal because he played
Speaker 7: the forty five.
Speaker 9: You know, that's the anomaly to all of us.
Speaker 3: But guess what trade right, redditions right? That's why.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Drew Brees played to leave was forty Philip Rivers
Speaker 7: played to leave was thirty nine. Eli Manning played thirty seven.
Speaker 7: Far plays to leave was forty five, but he did
Speaker 7: take a year off in between, and then you had,
Speaker 7: uh what the bace of just retired to Eli Manning?
Speaker 9: He played to leave was thirty eight. That's the average.
Speaker 3: Farve could take a hit, though with New Orleans Saints
Speaker 3: did he could take a hit at his old age.
Speaker 6: Let me tell you as far as my all time
Speaker 6: favorite quarterback. I don't care about the ones that have
Speaker 6: won a lot of Super Bowls or not.
Speaker 3: I'm playing when your dad died and having the best
Speaker 3: game in your career. That is that's solid, okay.
Speaker 6: Anybody that can play that many games and take the
Speaker 6: beating five dead, that's okay. Even though Kenny is a
Speaker 6: packern On the Lion by trade, even though I haven't
Speaker 6: ring football a long time.
Speaker 4: Wilson wouldn't make the practice squad. Huh.
Speaker 9: You know what he did in the pre season. You
Speaker 9: were there, Rolph?
Speaker 2: Yea, let me finished, Ralph. Okay.
Speaker 6: The reality is is right front of is my all
Speaker 6: time quarterback. The fact that he played as many consecutive
Speaker 6: games as he did alone a position like that will
Speaker 6: always win me over. If hands or all right?
Speaker 5: No, well, Russell Wilson, man, Wow, he'd be all right
Speaker 5: with green Bay. He played He played well for Green Bay.
Speaker 5: He played well for any team. Russell Wilson, he's a
Speaker 5: good quarterback.
Speaker 9: You knew you then that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I haven't bred farm Jersey. I just don't have
Speaker 1: an autograph.
Speaker 3: But you could have just sold him. It would have
Speaker 3: made a lot of money on that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 7: I mean, you'd at least made four hundred dollars for
Speaker 7: a regular game. If it was a regular game Jersey,
Speaker 7: if it was a game war in Jersey, you do
Speaker 7: got upwards of fifteen under.
Speaker 9: The three for it.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, easy, easy.
Speaker 9: I know sports memorabilia.
Speaker 7: My co host is a sports memberabilia guy.
Speaker 1: You got.
Speaker 9: On game Jersey.
Speaker 3: Easy?
Speaker 6: That that well, Jay, At least he kept it in
Speaker 6: the family. Anyways, it's the worst thing in the world.
Speaker 7: You know, that's the worst thing to say say to
Speaker 7: someone that lives down south.
Speaker 3: You know this guy that makes it. That makes me
Speaker 3: feel better than give it to a nephew.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's all right, Yep, it is good for him.
Speaker 7: I'm glad he still has it. I hope it's in
Speaker 7: a shadow box. I hope it's not being worn. I
Speaker 7: hope in an investment.
Speaker 3: Jay, I thought you gave it to us a complete stranger,
Speaker 3: and who knows what you would have done to it.
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, I gotta tell.
Speaker 2: You, President, you bring a lot to this show.
Speaker 4: Oh.
Speaker 2: I know you're you're gonna be fitted with this group.
Speaker 3: Oh, Ja, Jason, there could be a hard attack. Oh
Speaker 3: I got rid of a breath far warned emptyp Jersey.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I know, and I'm in here, I'm seeing dollar
Speaker 9: things in my head.
Speaker 7: I was like, wow, that's two years of community college easy.
Speaker 2: But I don't see anybody giving you our art. Attack.
Speaker 6: Brother, you're doing okay, you're holding your own role well
Speaker 6: on your first back there.
Speaker 3: Oh no, I'm reading Jay's comment. I'm like, you gotta
Speaker 3: be kidding me.
Speaker 2: Worry. You should see him on the other shows.
Speaker 4: Oh, it comes on my shows shows as well.
Speaker 6: Good Jay's good people, good people. Oh my Kevin, this
Speaker 6: guy around he keeps it.
Speaker 9: Yeah, name here, Paddy, Like you didn't give it the
Speaker 9: good will?
Speaker 3: There you go, and that would have given it for
Speaker 3: fifty cents.
Speaker 2: That's a tough camp waiting to be sold.
Speaker 7: The worst thing that I had bobble head dolls there
Speaker 7: Biblehead said goodwill and cashed him in and made a fortune.
Speaker 4: Some people cash you know, give him the good will.
Speaker 1: Jay, you're killing killing me.
Speaker 7: You're killing killing us all as a sports memorabilia guy.
Speaker 3: That's what's killing me. I should have.
Speaker 7: We're talking about the same guy that was begging me
Speaker 7: to sell him my berry over here by Barry Sanders
Speaker 7: sign MILLI mini helmet that.
Speaker 9: Yeah, he does still want it. And I said, I'm
Speaker 9: not selling it.
Speaker 1: Is that there?
Speaker 7: I said, I know what it costs retail, and I
Speaker 7: want more than retail because I don't want to sell it.
Speaker 6: But Jeremy, let me ask you a question. What did
Speaker 6: you do with that NFL draft thing that I gave
Speaker 6: you to take with you?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 3: Here it comes?
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's it. Yeah, the guy covered the draft and
Speaker 6: a really good job cup in his pat well. He
Speaker 6: made it even interesting on day three when everybody was bolting.
Speaker 1: Jay, I would have kept it if it was Barry
Speaker 1: Sanders and I'm not a Lions fan, but I know
Speaker 1: good Jerseys.
Speaker 2: What here?
Speaker 4: What?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 9: I told you exactly what I was gonna do, Scott.
Speaker 7: I was going to frame it along with that table
Speaker 7: blacker from where I sat.
Speaker 9: And what did I do? I framed it.
Speaker 2: That's good, Jeremy.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Every time I go good Will, I find seventies
Speaker 3: or eighties stuff there good Will.
Speaker 9: I will say.
Speaker 7: The best good Will I find I had was I
Speaker 7: got me a jack box Jersey on accident because I
Speaker 7: found a Joey Harrington won for fifty cents.
Speaker 9: Interesting asking tape in a marker.
Speaker 6: These guys are giving the ideas. Kenny to go ahead
Speaker 6: and start a memorabilia show one time.
Speaker 2: But I won't be I know, I know.
Speaker 1: So any other trades we want to talk about, we
Speaker 1: want to talk about. How about the Commanders.
Speaker 7: Oh, the Commanders made a great even That was an
Speaker 7: even trade back and forth. That defense had been decent,
Speaker 7: but their number one question was in the secondary because
Speaker 7: they have been torched a few in their two losses.
Speaker 7: So getting a guy like Marshawn Latimore, even though he's
Speaker 7: long in the two, he fits exactly what Dan Quinn
Speaker 7: does because he's a blitzing defense that runs zone behind
Speaker 7: it at the zone blitz defense.
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, good luck.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know the Lions. Lion's trade for a pass
Speaker 6: rusher was the worst kept secret on the planet. I
Speaker 6: knew they'd get the guy. It was just a matter
Speaker 6: of Brad and Holes working out the draft compensation.
Speaker 7: Jeremy, I'll tell you what that trade for Zadarius Smith.
Speaker 7: The reason why it didn't happen before the Aiden Hutchison's
Speaker 7: injury when it first started was they wanted a fourth
Speaker 7: rounder and Brad Holmes wasn't gonna pay it.
Speaker 9: As much as we want to.
Speaker 7: Knock him for it, Dollar General Brad does a great
Speaker 7: job getting value. So what he did was he waited
Speaker 7: till we won a few games after that without Hutchinson,
Speaker 7: which lowered the needs to the their team.
Speaker 2: It's called genius and Einstein rolled in the one called Jinstein.
Speaker 3: Now you have, we got, we got, we gotta face
Speaker 3: Latimore Sanders. Still, that's just gonna be a nightmare.
Speaker 7: And for the Nickel, Yeah, you move Forbes to the Nickel.
Speaker 7: He's a different cat because that's actually where he started out,
Speaker 7: adding college and flourished there.
Speaker 3: If we continue, if we do what we plan on doing,
Speaker 3: we'll be fine. But Vlatimore and Sanders still come on.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Sandristill is actually surprising me. I didn't think he.
Speaker 9: Was the guy.
Speaker 3: I knew he was. I know he was a be
Speaker 3: because I'm a Michigan boy.
Speaker 7: Oh I'm a Michigan boy, Don't get me wrong. I
Speaker 7: thought in the NFL he'd be more suited.
Speaker 3: For a If it's in your blood, it's in your blood, man.
Speaker 1: Okay, guys, I'm gonna reel us back in because I'm
Speaker 1: gonna take a quick station. Donification ye self. Florida Tribune
Speaker 1: Publishing Company published a book last November, Lessons from the
Speaker 1: microphone tuning into the enduring wisdom of visionary leaders. It
Speaker 1: is written by Scott the MotorCity mad Mouth Morgan Roth.
Speaker 1: It is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kindle, Apple,
Speaker 1: and Google Books. It talks about the media industry and
Speaker 1: how it has changed over Scott's forty plus years in
Speaker 1: the industry, old school versus new school media. Scott, how
Speaker 1: long did it take you to write the book?
Speaker 2: Actionally? It took me five months.
Speaker 6: Okay, I'll be working on I'll be working on the
Speaker 6: next one, probably, I want to say, beginning of January.
Speaker 2: That won't be as long as the first one. If
Speaker 2: I can rest.
Speaker 6: Assured that I'll leave out, I'll incorporate what I wouldn't
Speaker 6: able to get, and I read to write two books
Speaker 6: with updates read the Long Foot pile it all in
Speaker 6: the first one that'll be to be determined, it'll be
Speaker 6: probably in the same places, and then some I'm going
Speaker 6: to start the outline process, I want to say in January,
Speaker 6: and if everything goes like I hope, I can go
Speaker 6: on my goals to release it in the spring. But thanks,
Speaker 6: you want to see the story about Dan Marino. You
Speaker 6: know it's an idea I'll think about it. Thanks for
Speaker 6: bringing it up, but don't expect anything about Howard co Sell,
Speaker 6: which or I know you're gonna bring up and Herman
Speaker 6: Edwards because I know you're waiting for that one, Jay,
Speaker 6: and save you from Pepper because I know what this
Speaker 6: guy's all about.
Speaker 2: And now he's laughing out loud.
Speaker 6: Because those are the next question under the GMT.
Speaker 3: Before we go to the next topic. Can I tell
Speaker 3: Jay one thing? Sure, Jay, I have confidence in my Steelers.
Speaker 3: Don't get me wrong. It's just the defense of the
Speaker 3: commander's got stronger. And that's the only thing. As a
Speaker 3: YouTuber you got to look at both sides of the ball.
Speaker 7: I do have an update everybody for the Lions except
Speaker 7: for JR. M. Malcolm Rodrigo, and because it was a
Speaker 7: bye week, they're given the Darius Smith another red day.
Speaker 7: The only players that did not practice, uh that aren't
Speaker 7: on the ir if email A Famu and Emmanuel Moseley
Speaker 7: were at full practice all week.
Speaker 1: Okay the.
Speaker 3: Twenty eight twenty one, twenty eight twenty one.
Speaker 2: Okay, no fair enough, Allan's thrown down.
Speaker 7: And also for the Texans, Nico Collins has not been
Speaker 7: activated if he's not activated to the twenty one day
Speaker 7: active window by Friday at four pm, he cannot be
Speaker 7: activated for Sunday's game, which means basically more than likely
Speaker 7: he's out because he hasn't even practiced in a limited
Speaker 7: fast this week.
Speaker 1: So what do we think of the DeAndre Hopkins trade?
Speaker 7: Well, considering what it did for them that it was
Speaker 7: so one side of a conditional fifth round pick that
Speaker 7: if they make the Super Bowl and he plays sixty
Speaker 7: percent of the snap, they did a fourth they stole
Speaker 7: them from the Titans, the Titans probably have made the
Speaker 7: worst trade this offseason.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I couldn't agree with you more, Jeremy.
Speaker 6: That's called grand larceny in Jerremany without going to jail.
Speaker 7: Yeah, because they you know, other than the fact he's
Speaker 7: had garbage qbs every other year he's been in, he's
Speaker 7: been a top been wide receiver. The only person that
Speaker 7: did bigger larceny was what Bruce Arians did to get
Speaker 7: rid of him when he was a Texan, a sixth
Speaker 7: round pick and a broken David Johnson for d hop
Speaker 7: Are you kidding me?
Speaker 2: I think it was.
Speaker 6: I think it was Bill O'Brien, wasn't it. Well, it's
Speaker 6: a different wait, wait a minute, Paul Rick, I don't
Speaker 6: know what you're drinking. I'm real, I'm reeling you back
Speaker 6: in sick the man now, Bill O'Brien, I hate fact errors,
Speaker 6: and you know that's one of my pet peeves.
Speaker 2: So don't go there.
Speaker 6: I'm telling you, Senior, junior or whatever he thought, Bill Bryan,
Speaker 6: don't slander Brutherians.
Speaker 3: Really really is there it is?
Speaker 6: Don't sliderans. He got a Super Bowl so end, but
Speaker 6: he didn't win it on his own. But he's the
Speaker 6: one that made those moves. No fatal errors. I put
Speaker 6: it on the back of my book. Benvin, you gotta
Speaker 6: get one one of these days, buddy, so you can
Speaker 6: see what we got.
Speaker 9: Every now and then I make a mistake.
Speaker 6: All right, it's okay, But I'm just making sure that
Speaker 6: you don't make no facial errors. And you know you're
Speaker 6: talking about coaches. You give me all these game day
Speaker 6: updates that I would get over in the press pot
Speaker 6: but we're not in the press poct. So I'm just
Speaker 6: making sure that you you got the coaches right. I
Speaker 6: guess this isn't the country club for Kenny that I
Speaker 6: she got me speaking a lot, Oh well.
Speaker 7: Two or four years, probably two to four years for Hopkins.
Speaker 7: It depends on how well he keeps his body. Larry
Speaker 7: Fitzgerald play.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a shame Milik Willis wasn't good enough to
Speaker 6: play with Tennessee a boy.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you one thing.
Speaker 6: You put him up on a place like Green Bay
Speaker 6: where that thing called coaching is there, and he isn't
Speaker 6: so bad after all.
Speaker 2: Is he? No, he's like.
Speaker 3: Him three years.
Speaker 9: I have one question for the panel.
Speaker 7: Who's the only team in the NFL is five and
Speaker 7: scoring and using right now?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't follow that. Do you tell me?
Speaker 3: I have no idea.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I figured that it had to come from me.
Speaker 2: I was just waiting for him. The city obvious.
Speaker 3: I was thinking it was Kansas, but I wasn't sure.
Speaker 9: Kansas is twentieth in scoring this year.
Speaker 2: Kansas city. Of course.
Speaker 6: We don't know, Pensman, if they're going to be playing
Speaker 6: in Kansas or Missouri, right TBD? Yeah, No, I think
Speaker 6: they should go to Kansas right there as a speedway.
Speaker 2: I'll point counter point you want on that one all
Speaker 2: day long.
Speaker 9: Wallrick, No, they're in misery. I meant they should go
Speaker 9: to Kansas.
Speaker 6: They oh, Okay, yeah, right again, professor and the pupil
Speaker 6: here on fire up.
Speaker 3: That's good too, Jay.
Speaker 7: He needed a wide receiver receiver that could catch the ball.
Speaker 7: With DeAndre Hopkins the first week, it looked like a
Speaker 7: totally different mahomes. If you actually go look at his numbers,
Speaker 7: they were a lot better. But at the same time,
Speaker 7: that would de hop only be in there a week.
Speaker 7: What's gonna happen a month down the road when the
Speaker 7: other teams start to fall off that are even close
Speaker 7: to me?
Speaker 2: Oh no, back to Candy.
Speaker 1: I don't know either. Okay, guys, anything else, any of
Speaker 1: the topics you guys want to bring up before we
Speaker 1: go into my town.
Speaker 7: That other little trade, you know, because we saw Quintonberry
Speaker 7: versus the Rams for Minnesota and he looked like an
Speaker 7: in New York Stern turn style at Rush Albert. So
Speaker 7: they traded with the Jackson, got Tam Robinson, who hasn't
Speaker 7: been playing because they had another starter that showed up
Speaker 7: because he's been on and off the.
Speaker 9: Injury report this year.
Speaker 7: So hopefully Caam Roberts Cam Robinson at least only looks
Speaker 7: like a swinging door, because otherwise it's going to be
Speaker 7: a long day for Minnesota.
Speaker 9: The rest of the season at left back.
Speaker 1: Okay, my town, Let's let's start with Ralph.
Speaker 5: Like I said, the Pirates Paul Skenes one Rookie of
Speaker 5: the Year by publication, which is great. Also, Jared Triola
Speaker 5: won the Cool Glove for Best utility Player. We have
Speaker 5: five free agents, and I said this in prior shows
Speaker 5: that I believe that, you know, Andrew McCutcheon is about
Speaker 5: to is up for free agency. I don't know if
Speaker 5: he even wants to come back to the Pirates. I
Speaker 5: do know there are some frustrated free agents that we
Speaker 5: do have, including you know Grenzel, our catcher, who's frustrated
Speaker 5: as well because of what happened to Rowdy t Les.
Speaker 4: And Mike way Taylor. All they needed was two games.
Speaker 5: They could have got a two hundred thousand dollars bonus,
Speaker 5: and Bob Nutting decided to pull the rug out from
Speaker 5: under them. And you know, I think that's wrong. Bob
Speaker 5: Nutting needs to quit pinching pennies and start, you know, understanding,
Speaker 5: got to start paying some players to get a winning team.
Speaker 5: I'm waiting for next year for him to say we
Speaker 5: have a team to win the championship because I'm want
Speaker 5: to start laughing like.
Speaker 4: I have before.
Speaker 5: And the USL Pittsburgh Riverhounds lost their first round playoff games,
Speaker 5: so they're done for the season. They lost to the
Speaker 5: Charleston Battery and it happened again who they beat in
Speaker 5: their last regular season game two to nothing and then
Speaker 5: lose one to nothing in the playoffs. Last year they
Speaker 5: beat Detroit their last game and then Watston Detroit in
Speaker 5: the playoffs. So but the Riverhouse did the same exact
Speaker 5: thing this year. Different team, but you know, congrats to them.
Speaker 4: At least they made it into.
Speaker 5: The at least the first round of two, the first
Speaker 5: round of the playoffs. So other than that, that's it
Speaker 5: for me and the Penguins.
Speaker 4: They stink.
Speaker 6: I mean, how do you really appel? And by the way,
Speaker 6: that was a bad look. By the way, letting him
Speaker 6: collect that money after two games. Boy, that's a that's
Speaker 6: an organization killer doing that.
Speaker 4: Yes it is. Yeah, bad.
Speaker 1: Scott. What's happening in your town?
Speaker 6: We're going to take it to my town, to my state.
Speaker 6: Notre Dame is five and six again, Florida state all
Speaker 6: the time. On Saturday night, it will be six and six.
Speaker 6: They go play up in South Indiana. I believe the
Speaker 6: game is on the road. Second thing I'm gonna talk
Speaker 6: about Scott Trickland, athletic director of University of Florida, has
Speaker 6: decided to bring Billy Napier back for twenty twenty five.
Speaker 6: Great move, but alone, He's not stupid. When it comes
Speaker 6: to arithmetic, you get rid of Billy Napier right now
Speaker 6: is going to cost you twenty six million dollars. Let alone,
Speaker 6: if you get rid of assistance, that number to look
Speaker 6: for forty million. But you know what, the Florida Billy
Speaker 6: Napier did not become a bad coach overnight. He did
Speaker 6: as albeit. I saw the Miami Hurricane blow out the
Speaker 6: Gators forty one to seventeen in Gainesville. Of course, Miami
Speaker 6: beating a lot of teams. But I still think Billion
Speaker 6: Napier is the right guy for the Florida Gators job.
Speaker 2: I really do.
Speaker 6: I think he give them at least another year, and
Speaker 6: I hope and pray for Billy that he can finally
Speaker 6: get the respect in the players that Florida needs to
Speaker 6: continue their tradition and let alone the fact that if
Speaker 6: everything goes to plan according to plane, medically wise for me,
Speaker 6: Candy and I will have the Miami Hurricanes and Florida
Speaker 6: Gators in hard Rock Stadium come next September. It was
Speaker 6: great to see Candy be able to achieve a milestone
Speaker 6: and go to Gainesville to see the Gators play in
Speaker 6: the fact that she was in Tallass a year ago.
Speaker 6: So now she's at every big stadium in the state
Speaker 6: of Florida, and we're working on Central Florida. Sure we
Speaker 6: get when we get credentialed for the Hula.
Speaker 2: Bowl, and then she will get them all.
Speaker 4: That is.
Speaker 2: Jeremy, Thanks Jack.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 7: We had an interesting day the last couple of days.
Speaker 7: They waved UDFA wide receiver Isaiah Williams, and I think
Speaker 7: that's because they have to make room because of the
Speaker 7: twenty one day activation window of Broderick Martin, the defensive
Speaker 7: tackle that's in his second year.
Speaker 9: He came off the ir a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 9: This is the third week.
Speaker 7: If they don't activate him, they got to put him
Speaker 7: back on the IR shell for the rest of the season.
Speaker 7: So I think that's why that move was made, because
Speaker 7: the other two spots are going to be taken up
Speaker 7: by Jamison Williams and Sidarius Smith, they traded for.
Speaker 1: Pensman. What's happening in your Montown?
Speaker 3: Penguins lost five to one to the Carolina Hurricanes. Mike
Speaker 3: saw that it needs to be fired. So and as
Speaker 3: you all know, the Steelers play the Commanders on Sunday
Speaker 3: at one o'clock.
Speaker 1: So I'm going to talk a little bit. I talked
Speaker 1: about this last night, the road to Executive of the Year.
Speaker 1: That happened to be Milwaukee Brewers Matt Arnold. The Brewers
Speaker 1: were not expected to do anything this last year. Council
Speaker 1: left for what he thought were greener pastures. At least
Speaker 1: he made He made more money. So let's face it,
Speaker 1: that's what we're all. That's what he's in it for.
Speaker 1: He went to the cub so on November fifteenth, the
Speaker 1: last year, he named Pat Murphy manager. Then he made
Speaker 1: some great moves, signed Jared Kanning, Jackson Curio, Brian Hudson,
Speaker 1: Rice Hoskin, Joey Ortiz, Frankie Montaz, and a bunch of
Speaker 1: other things, a bunch of other moves, and what happened.
Speaker 1: They clinched their second consecutive National League Central title. Congratulations
Speaker 1: to him being named Executive of the Year. That doesn't
Speaker 1: happen very often for the Brewers, let's face it, and
Speaker 1: the Brewers were not expected to do very well this
Speaker 1: past year. The Packers. Yeah, well there is I've read
Speaker 1: and I'm not sure. I haven't had anything confirmed that
Speaker 1: Jordan Love has more injuries coming out of this last
Speaker 1: game than just the aggravated groins, So I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: say it yet until it's been confirmed. But yes, that's
Speaker 1: not but again I'm not sure sure that's not necessarily
Speaker 1: a bad thing because Malik Willis has been doing good
Speaker 1: things for us, so at least we have at least
Speaker 1: we went out and got Malik Willis because before that
Speaker 1: we didn't have anybody really capable. Before I end the show, though,
Speaker 1: I do want to shout out because next week is
Speaker 1: Veterans Day and on Monday, and so I really want
Speaker 1: to give a shout out to all the veterans out
Speaker 1: there and thank them for their service. There's a big
Speaker 1: difference between Veterans Day and Memorial Day, and I don't
Speaker 1: know that everybody knows it. Veterans Day is to honor
Speaker 1: all veterans. Memorial Day is to honor those that sacrifice
Speaker 1: the ultimate sacrifice. But if we wouldn't have veterans today,
Speaker 1: We wouldn't be sitting here being able to talk doing everything.
Speaker 1: We live in a free country. We live in a
Speaker 1: country where we were able to vote for presidency on Tuesday,
Speaker 1: and whether you like the outcome or not, it's still
Speaker 1: our right and our civic duty to free to vote.
Speaker 1: So shout out out to all the vets out there.
Speaker 1: I have both my uncles were were veterans. One of
Speaker 1: them is no longer with us, one of them, one
Speaker 1: of them is still alive and well. So kudos to
Speaker 1: everybody that is a veteran. And I don't know if
Speaker 1: anybody on this panel is, but I know Scott's dad
Speaker 1: is also a veteran, So I recognize that, and I
Speaker 1: want to honor all of the veterans. Any other last
Speaker 1: minute parting ideas or topics before we let everybody know
Speaker 1: how we can get a hold of everybody. No, no,
Speaker 1: I did.
Speaker 7: Oh, I did a minor enlistenment back in eighty eight
Speaker 7: and eighty nine.
Speaker 9: I serve my country.
Speaker 7: I did find that blank check when they the last
Speaker 7: year they offered here and listening.
Speaker 2: Awesome, awesome, Yeah, I'll second Jay's comment.
Speaker 6: Penslan did a nice job, and I look forward to
Speaker 6: seeing Penman on Thursday night every week with Jeremy and Ralph.
Speaker 6: He's gonna fitted really, really well. I can tell you
Speaker 6: right now. He's been great. First act for you, my friend.
Speaker 6: You found a good spot here on Fire Up every
Speaker 6: Thursday night, and you'll build your following. Throw us that way,
Speaker 6: and I'll use you once in a while on other shows
Speaker 6: as well when a situation presents itself. But you found
Speaker 6: a home here on Fire Up, and more than give
Speaker 6: you a Jeremy and ralphin especially old Candy. You guys
Speaker 6: make you guys going to make a fantastic foursome I'm
Speaker 6: proud of.
Speaker 3: Only can do you better? Make Jay happy with the Bucks?
Speaker 3: He's asked about the Bucks. That's the third time he
Speaker 3: says something about the Bucks.
Speaker 2: Well, they're actually winning right now.
Speaker 1: They are winning ninety four to eighty right now against
Speaker 1: the Utah Jazz. They have not had a good start
Speaker 1: to the season. They have been without Middleton Chris Middleton.
Speaker 1: So far this year, they haven't They're not firing in
Speaker 1: all cylinders. They've gone through some shooting slumps. Brook Lopez
Speaker 1: is in a shooting slump. Giannis was a little injured
Speaker 1: here and there. So but it's early, and yes it's
Speaker 1: a horrible start, I get that, but it's not a
Speaker 1: six games you know series, or a ten game series.
Speaker 1: You know. They play a lot of games, so just
Speaker 1: give them some time. Sometimes teams start out slow, especially
Speaker 1: without one of your star star scorers, because let's face it,
Speaker 1: that's what Chris Middleton does. He's a good three point shooter,
Speaker 1: and whether you like it or not, that is what
Speaker 1: the league is these days, is a three point shot.
Speaker 1: They don't play a lot of defense. So but yes,
Speaker 1: it is a hair rolling out the facts. Patience is
Speaker 1: a virtue. You are correct. Okay, guys, let's let everybody
Speaker 1: know how they can get a hold of you and
Speaker 1: watch you see you whatever, Pensman.
