Speaker 1: All start to what you want to present? Some off
the bench with Jacob Hester and T bob Abert.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Off the bench with Jacob Hester and Bob Abert.
Speaker 2: Come off the pitch.
Speaker 1: Now here's Jacob Hester and T Bob Abert.
Speaker 2: How is there even a question? What did three p
make the Chiefs the greatest? Inneville dynastaic. Nobody's one to
ever do it? Yeah, I mean I guess semantically you
can say, well, it was would be the greatest run,
but not Marshall Shower. You look great, partners. I've made
seven AFC championships in a row. That's ludicrous, Ludacris. The
only thing crazier is probably how little respect Nick Sirianni gets,
considering he's going to his second Super Bowl in four
years as a head coach and has the best overall
winning you know, winning percentage in the NFL. What Taylor
say something? This is the I'm gonna get big. I'm
out here to whoop your ass when he comes to
town next week.
Speaker 3: I don't know who that is, but uh, anyway, how do.
Speaker 2: You know you're chronically online?
Speaker 3: Big Dom?
Speaker 2: Big Dom? Nick sirian He's like Italian right hand man.
He's like, he's like, oh, the guy who's like the
kind of like the get back coach, but he's also
like security get back coach.
Speaker 4: Like security for Nick more than security is security, you know,
the same way that Big Dom's associates are into waste management.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that that's how Big Dom's security be careful.
Speaker 3: Fun to hang out. It sounds like I was going to.
Speaker 2: Say, he's up in a ditch next week into one
with the canoli stuff down his mouth. Better be careful
about I don't know where you're gonna put that connol.
I know where Taylor wants me to put it on
the plate so you can eat it. Yeah. Correct. For
the fourteenth straight year, Tom Brady or Patrick mahomes AFC Championship.
So we were talking about dynasties half my life. Well,
I'm I mean again, I think what did did did
I think Patty lost maybe two out of the first
three to Tom in the ANC Championship. Like there was
a while there at the beginning of this run where
that they were the they were the two ones, uh
meeting up every time again, It's it is insane that
we had Brady and he looked like he put together
a resume that should have been untouchable, and now you
have Patrick Mahomes actually keeping pace and exceeding in some ways. Now,
can you do it for another twenty years? That that
that's ultimately going to be the thing that separates. But
it's wild that it's even in in the cards, that
it's even in play right now. Who beat them in
the Super Bowl that year?
Speaker 3: The Bus?
Speaker 2: Are you talking about when the Chiefs? Yeah, when the
Chiefs made wait, when they made the Super Bowl and lost,
it was the Bucks. Wow, that's wild.
Speaker 3: He's only lost to h Brady and Burrow.
Speaker 2: Yeah. True, even though I don't think we ever brought
this on air, but there are some insane Josh Allen
numbers for his playoff career. Josh Allen is, like, I
think he's number one all time in yards per game.
He's number one all time in UH touchdown and to
turnover ratio. He's like number one passer rain.
Speaker 3: Or one in total touchdowns as well.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, yeah, So he's got all these number one
all time playoff stats with the quarterback position, and yet
he just can't get somebody to make the play for him.
He needs his David Tyree and he just can't get it.
Dog Kakate very hard catch with that ball. I did
not realize until further reflection the ball absolutely somehow hit
him in the hands. Also he takes one step forward.
It's an even easier catch, Oh Josh, But like you know,
the physics of it were crazy. How can he be easier?
Speaker 5: Like that's like a win and redirect his body? Would
he tell you he should have caught it yet?
Speaker 2: But it ain't an easy no, I'm saying it's like
that's why I mentioned David Tyree, right, it's not that agreetive.
But it's a hard catch. But it's like that, all
these great players, somebody makes to play for them, and
Josh has like the digs drop the miss field with
It's just he needs someone. One of his last three
games against the Chiefs in the playoffs nty one yards,
six touchdowns, no turnovers, win three. That would be so
bid yep, oh man, you know who? You know who
I'm not mad at, And I just continue to love
more and more our ludicrously dressed king. The best college
football player I've ever seen live, Cam Newton. I mean, look,
Cam Newton has dominated every phase of life that he's
ever been at really everything he's ever engaged in. Frankly,
maybe besides theft, but he's been great at everything else,
and the media game is no different, as he understands
how it works. He's out here cooking. They asked him,
do you want a Super Bowl Championship for MVP? He said,
hat MVP? Oh does that make you mad? Duh? And
then how about this, Jake? I read this take and
I felt like I was sitting down at a Michelin
three star restaurant with some new age, avant garde chef
who's serving me pudding or what looks like putting, only
it's actually somehow like fried chicken and delicious, just just
subverting next to me, you know, just really crafting the
other baking takes that boggle the mine. His latest take,
Taylor on your Dallas Cowboys, is that Jerry Jones has
hired bron Brian Schottenheimer to be a one year rental
sort of fall guy so that the Cowboys tank, they
get the number one over all pick, they draft Arch Manning,
and then he hires Nick Saban. Can you imagine a
bigger publicity fueled football team than the Dallas Cowboys being
quarterbacked by Arch Manning and coached by Nick Saban. It's genius.
It's elements that I never would have put together. It's ridiculous,
it's absurd, Yet like all great takes, there's a level
of logic there that gives it a bit of weight.
Compliments of the chef can never happen. I told you
all this with the Dion news. Jerry cannot have the
spotlight on anyone but himself. It will never happen.
Speaker 3: He can't do it.
Speaker 2: Stephen Jones wouldn't do it either. Freaking his gaslight in
the media the other day he was introducing Schottenheimer, which
I don't why Wouldning the GM do that? Hell Stephen
doing up there anyways, But beside the point he up
there and said, yeah, you know a lot of people
are questioning this highre and talking about our drought that
everyone talks about like in air quotes. I'm like, you
haven't been to the NFC Championship in thirty years. You're
in a drought. Stop acting like we're the ones that
painting You're in a drought. You're in a drought. Every
team in the NFC has made it more recently than you.
Speaker 3: Shout out the Commanders not good.
Speaker 2: Yeah. If Arch was the Dallas Cowboys quarterback.
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, there would be nothing else on TV,
Like all these takes right now, they would just shift
to that. That's all they would talk about. Your boy,
Chase Daniel right now, that's all he'd be talking about.
Speaker 2: ESPNB be out there looking like Scarface only instead of cocaine.
It's just Arch headlines, just sitting at the table, just
Arch Man the Cowboys. Art expectations for Arch week one?
Can you ever? Is Arch gonna be Rookie of the Year?
Can Arch final bring the Cowboys back to an NFC
East title? Is Arch make the Cowboys Super Bowl contenders? Immediately?
It would be unreal? Mann well Eli signed on to
coach Cowboys. Oh that would be the paid manning rumors
would Oh, they'd go crazy. I'd hate it. I would
hate all of that, Yes I would. Arch is probably
gonna be awesome.
Speaker 3: No, not not.
Speaker 2: Because I because yeah, is that I don't like when
media that's crap, like the wait, so uh what about?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 2: So you don't like how the Cowboys are covered then?
Because well I would. The Cowboys are covered negatively now,
So no, I don't, but that either how do you
feel about red Bull? Because Arch is a Red Bull guy?
Now you saw it first and il deal?
Speaker 3: Is it my favorite?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 3: Do I drink it?
Speaker 2: Yeah? What you're working with today?
Speaker 3: Bo, guys, it's been a long week.
Speaker 2: We got the nos today, we had to break out
the big guns. His morning got started off great. As
soon as he walked in, I cracked that cap open.
Speaker 5: I was about to walk into Eric he in case
of emergency, break the glass, got the NASIS.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, that would I just can't see Nick
Saban wanting to coach NFL players.
Speaker 2: So okay, okay, so let's be clear about the take
here if we want to dissect it. Of course, it's absurd.
First off, it's gonna be really hard to get the
number one pick when you have CD Lamb, Micah Parsons
and Dak Prescott like you. It's gonna be really hard
to get the number one pick. Secondly, Nick Saban wasn't
a good NFL coach and he left college because it
was coming more like the NFL. Yeah, no, I know
exactly right. You're right, that's what I'm saying, and I
will say I find no fault with the Arch angle though.
Speaker 6: Actually I kind of don't either, but it's really funny
to me either way.
Speaker 2: And that like, if you did have the number one
pick and Arch does end up being the quarterback that
we think it can be next year, Like yeah, that
would you know that? That would be the little most
legendary pairing in football. Hits so right, the earth would
explode if he If Arch Manning joined the Cowboys, he
would become my favorite player because he replaced Dak Prescott.
And that's what I've been waiting for for years. So
Arch Manning, look big fan of him. If he can
get there, come on down. I hope you go over
this poverty franchise. I hope you have experience something like
Derek Carr, even though I don't know whatever it's, I
don't know. Derek ain't got an eighty nine million dollar cap.
Speaker 3: Hit next year.
Speaker 2: Eighty nine million.
Speaker 3: Eighty nine million.
Speaker 2: That's the all's fault. That's what I'm saying. Like you're
you're you're saying it could be worse. Yeah, but you're
this guy's the highest paid player in the league. I'd
rather a bad quarterback who's not getting paid a lot. Ah. Yeah,
I mean I don't, I don't know, yeah, a little
too much?
Speaker 6: Right, That just mean you think what cars getting paid
a little too much?
Speaker 2: I think quarterbacks get paid too much. Yeah, I agree,
let's say that because again, for what he is, I know,
but that's that's the crazy thing that we talk about
during the season. For what he is, he's paid what
like the eighteenth highest in the league or whatever, which
sounds crazy, but like that's where it is. So for
what he is, you're basically getting maybe even arguably little
bit above market value, though you could argue with the injuries. No,
but yeah, quarterbacks are just paid too much. You know,
he deserves more. No running backs, Actually, I actually agree.
We're talking about Who's I talking about this with, uh
maybe Paul Chestnut down there and mobile, But I think
running backs in an odd spot where Saquon Derrick, Henry Josh,
they've done a lot for showing that oh no, this
is still a critical piece to team success and can
put you over the top. But now the fire is Jake,
are they outliers or like if you're in a complete rebuilt,
like if you don't have a quarterback, can the running
back matter or is the running back the final piece
of the puzzle to put you over the top. If
you're already set everywhere else, then you can invest in
a running back. Back in the day, you could say,
forget about a quarterback. I'm gonna go Immitt Smith wherever
you know you can have the franchise running back invest
en and have him carry you to a championship. I
don't know that that's proven, but I do think that
running back value is in a better spot than it
has been over the last few years. When you look
at the Giants nose diving, the Titans nose diving, and
the teams at Derrick Henry and Saqua Barca join rising
and getting much much better.
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm sitting here and I'm looking at at
contracts and to you would be shocked by the people
that make more money than some of the top running backs,
like Christian.
Speaker 2: Kirk makes let's see, twenty.
Speaker 5: Four million more in overall salary than any running back
in the NFL.
Speaker 2: Christian Kirk, it's Tayte's boy. You have to go.
Speaker 5: I'm I'm giving you an example, like I'm just gonna
pick a random person here, Juwan Taylor, right tackle for
the Kansas City Chiefs, who has more penalty than anybody
in the NFL over the last two years eighty million.
And when you go to running back, all right, Josh
Jacobs at forty eight million, highest value. You can't tell
me that Christian Kirk means more to his team by
twenty four million dollars over Josh Jacobs, Jonathan Taylor, Sakwon Barkley,
Christian McCaffer like all these names. Joe Mixon twenty five
and a half. Joe Mixon was a large reason why
the Texans were in the position that they were. I'm
not saying they should be the highest paid, but the
difference between the top running backs and the rest of
the NFL is ludicrous.
Speaker 2: It's ludicrous. So it's it's interesting because objectively, you're correct
obviously about those guys meaning more than a Christian Kirk.
But it's we all know it's a market. It's market
based on position. Right. What's fascinating to me, Jake, is
can running backs do what wide receivers did because a
few years ago, remember we all accepted it as fat
team building theory. You could not pay a wide receiver
and win. Remember how crazy it was when Mike Thomas
was fighting for twenty million a year and everybody thought
the same for wild for doing it. And then slowly
but surely guys did what Saquan and Henry and these
guys have done this year right, and they kept showing, oh, wait, no,
this position still has massive value and that that equates
to winning, not just stats, that equates to winning, and
all of a sudden, now wide receivers, you'd like a
position that you have to pay if you want to win.
So I think these markets change over time in the
same way we're kind of seeing the NFL meta shift
in the run game seems to make it a bit
of comeback defense, making a bit of a comeback jake.
Maybe through that running back value starts to rubber band
back up a bit. I mean, I sure hope.
Speaker 5: So, because you go down the list and guys like
David Montgomery, who was just huge for the Lions this
year overall value eighteen point twenty five million, James Connor
nineteen million. I mean, you can continue to go down
the list of guys even like Bryce Hall's making nine
million total value of his contract.
Speaker 2: So it's just the difference between.
Speaker 5: The running back position and everybody else. It's just like
everybody just has to accept it. Because NFL front offices
have just told you that's how it's going to be.
And I don't think they're going to have that moment
like the receiver had and in the NFL Draft it's like, oh, okay,
well he's dude, this running back he's like a second
third round guy because that's like first round guy any
other position.
Speaker 2: I'm like, why are we doing that?
Speaker 5: Like why are we having to like tell ourselves like
this is different because it's.
Speaker 2: The running back position.
Speaker 5: I mean, Jamior Gibbs when he got selected twelve overall,
everybody's like, this is an awful pick. Turned out he
was pretty important to the Detroit Lions.
Speaker 2: I think the problem with running back is still that
you can get you feel as if you can get
a lot of guys to be good enough and not.
I don't know if that's fair, unfair, accurate, inaccurate, but
but like there it still feels like a it's really
hard to find the guys with the super high ceilings.
But that in terms of the floor of what is
like the base level of what you can get away
with that there's a lot of guys.
Speaker 5: That you can get that only the Kansas City chiefs
of all the divisional winners, only the Chiefs didn't have
a study running.
Speaker 2: Oh that's interesting. A large part of that's because Pacheco
was hurt, like when Pacheco's full strength. Like, so it's
really good. I mean, look, if if Henry, if those
Cats keep it up like this will start to change,
like next contract negotiations, they'll have more they'll have more levers.
Speaker 5: The Buffalo Bills, James Cook, Baltimore Ravens, Derek Henry, Houston
Texans Joe Mix and Philadelphia Eagles Saquon Barkley.
Speaker 2: Detroit Lions.
Speaker 5: They got a two headed monster Tampa Bay Bucky Irving
with what he did La Ram and.
Speaker 2: Was Bucky drafted I think like what fourth yeah, fourth round?
Speaker 5: Yeah, so you got Karen Williams with the La Rams,
another divisional winner, So you gotta have one.
Speaker 2: We'll see over time. I wonder if it starts to change. Hey, Taylor,
Dak Prescott will make one hundred thirty thousand dollars one
hundred thirty thousand, seven hundred and sixty nine dollars today,
I know makes a dollar fifty per second. No, no,
oh my god, it's a good feeling.
Speaker 5: A dollar fifty person second yeah, dude, man, he's made
four feet.
Speaker 2: So I'm saying, you're doing like you're doing like uh
you know, like so you're doing a workout where you're
like thirty seconds on, ten seconds off. Yeah, they're getting
paid like another fifty bucks.
Speaker 5: Hell yeah, dude, one hundred and thirty thousand, seven hundred
and sixty nine dollars today is wild.
Speaker 2: Like if you make that in a year, you're like,
all right, That's what I'm saying. In no way significant
and like a complete failure in life. That's good. That's good.
All right. Uh when we get back, guys soon, looks great. Okay,
it looks pretty good. Looks for good. That's what I'm saying.
I say it means. I'm just saying it looks pretty good.
We'll talk about next. You're on off the bench. Off
the bench, go to main event, bad Rouge. Main event.
Right here in bat Rouge, guys, is your headquarters for fun. Okay. Uh,
if you know what a main event is, it's a

Speaker 5: Go to main event dot com. Check out those hours

check it out main event dot com.
Speaker 1: Back to sports talk maybe off the bench.
Speaker 6: Of the times to go.
Speaker 2: It's us.
Speaker 6: A lot of girl.
Speaker 2: What's up, y'all? Welcome back, go TV, roll right along,
Chow Taylor. You said you were drinking an old fashion
and reading a book last night. Yeah, an older guy
growing up. I don't know. I'm gonna blame Victoria. That's
that's that's a that's a her moves fashion deep in
every young man's life. When you started to join a nightcap.
Speaker 3: I know, it's it's it's weird. I don't know how
to feel about it.
Speaker 2: What book were you reading? Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Let's take guesses here. What genre of book would Taylor
be reading. It's easy?
Speaker 5: Uh, history, a autobiography.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go, I'm gonna horror the winner. What
do you say? If he hadn't said easy, I was
gonna say some sort of self improvement bs. But uh,
when he said easy, you knew I'm not that deep.
Speaker 3: Of a person.
Speaker 2: Deep like true crime horror that that kind of fits
both of those. Is this a good line that made
this up in my head the other day? Okay, I'm
gonna call some about a shalloon, like you're so shallow
you were soil, you'd be fallow, you know.
Speaker 6: So maybe I'm like too dumb to get this one,
but I don't really get it.
Speaker 2: Like fallow soils like bad soil you can't gross down,
and so like I'm guessing like it's hard to grow
something shallow soil. Yeah, boy, so shallow you soil, you'll
be fellow.
Speaker 6: No, I don't hate it, but it took us a
while to get there, trying to.
Speaker 2: Put it in the riven too much. It doesn't work.
It doesn't work.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't know what Fellow was.
Speaker 2: Soon. My brain's working at about fifty percent right now.
Yeah yeah, yeah, I wait, So what book you reading?
Speaker 3: It was a night Shift Stephen King?
Speaker 2: Wait, they made a movie about night Shift. I've seen.
It's not a bad bat flick. They may yeah, briller. Uh,
They've made movies about I think everything Stephen King's ever written. Yeah,
true touchet, guys. I'm not saying that I care. I
am saying I think Zion looks pretty good physically. He
resigned me Zion Williamson talking to the media about why
he's not playing it back to backs.
Speaker 7: Let me make this clear to everybody out dude, if
I can play in the back to backs, I would.
I physically, yes, I can, But I work for the Pelicies.
They have decided it based off the numbers. You know,
it's not smart to do that right now, so you know,
if that's what they feel, I'm rocking with them on that.
But yes, if I could play in a back to back,
I would.
Speaker 2: There's a lot to unpack there. First up, again, he
looks great, guys, does it really does? That's the best
shape I've ever seen him look like he said. It's
also the most like animated I've ever seen him, you
know like that, that's like maybe the closest you see
him to like getting mad in like an interview setting.
It also to me, it's impossible to ignore that it
feels like the relationship's broken when you hit him with
the they now we they I work for the Pelicans,
and they are deciding to hold me out of this,
and so I'm rocking with them. I mean, am I wrong?
Am I am I reaching here? Now? I think he well,
I mean I am tell me. I mean, I don't care,
I mean somewhat.
Speaker 5: I think it's a situation where he knows that he's
catching a lot of heat, catching a lot of strays
because he's not playing in back to backs, and he
wants to put the message out there. If I was
the decision maker, I would be playing in back to backs.
Speaker 2: I don't have that power.
Speaker 5: The Pelicans as a franchise say I can't do that.
They've looked at the analytics and they say we can't
get that done. So I don't think it's necessarily saying
that the relationship is bad. I think it's just him
wanting to get out in front and say, I hear y'all, I.
Speaker 2: See the strays, but no, it's it's not me. It's
a franchise decision. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right.
I they're awful. How much frustration is created, though, But
look how good he looks. They've lost four in a row.
Speaker 3: I can't make a joke today. He looked really good.
Speaker 2: He looks I always make a joke.
Speaker 6: I'm not gonna lie like it took me a minute
to figure out that was Ai or not. He also
is just talking kind of weird.
Speaker 2: In that he's kind of talking more than we've that's
the most like I feel like I've ever heard of
talk AI. Zion not the only one that's really pissed
off by that that video in which way Zion acts
like this is the first time he's just taking it
easy and not play and he's like, guys, I mean,
it's just the damnedest thing. I worked for the Pelicans,
like it's on them never, you know, forget about the
fact that last year the Pelicans couldn't figure out what
was wrong with me, And I said, I just don't
feel like Zion not the decision maker guys.
Speaker 3: It's them, It's all them. It's not me to take.
Speaker 2: I think is kind of rock with you. He said
this cover from the guy who didn't play last year
because quote he didn't feel like Zion. Yeah, okay, okay,
But what he is telling us here though, is that
he does feel like Zion. But the Pelicans, because of
his past, and I would say, justifiably so, are worried
and taking this thing rightly with kid gloves. I saw
the thing where Joel and Beads like played in half
games of his career, missed half the games in his career.
What is Zion like? What where's he at in that regard?
He's definitely not played as many as he's missed, right, Like,
he's got me on the other side of the right.
I think coming into the year he had played didn't
did we do this but a like mid fifties, like
fifty six, fifty five percent of his game something like that.
Coming into this year, that's I mean, it's dropped a
lot this year. But Daniel Blunt Zion is still a
huge child. So you know, I I I know he's
meaning that as a pejorative. That is something I was
also kind of strict by watching this is because you
look so young man. He is super he's a super
young man, you know, and so like, okay, I see
his body now and he looks good and maybe he's
finally locked in. But it's like he does kind of
remind you that, yes, uh, while you see others do it,
and so I understand the expectations. You can hold him
whatever expectations you want to. Personally, he's a kid when
he got here and it's taken him a few years
maybe to uh to figure it out, which again like
I'm not I'm not, I'm not making any excuses, but
it is something that was kind of on my uh
that that was that was floating through my brain as
I sit here as a thirty six year old man
looking at my cell phone and mobile Alabama, you know,
sitting at a table, and I'm like, oh time, like
what the head Robert like, okay, you know, I don't know.
Speaker 6: A quick Google search says that Zion has played in
one hundred and ninety seven games in his career and
he has missed two hundred and seven.
Speaker 2: Hmmm, well, well, well, thinking not that far off from
dreel embiid, which is maybe a bit surprising. Missed forty
seven percent, so Joel Embiand's over fifty. No, no, I agree,
but I'm saying it's not. It's not like wildly off
considering how we talk about the two players, it's not
he's not getting paid like kids. Mitchell. No, I know,
I get it. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not again,
I'm not. I don't want to be misconstrued as excusing.
I'm just talking about it is interesting to think about,
you know, as an older man. Now, what is I'm
like twenty three, twenty four man twenty five?
Speaker 3: This is year six, twenty four.
Speaker 2: But he looks right, he does look good, and I'm
happy for him.
Speaker 6: There he's twenty four.
Speaker 2: I feel like I feel like I'm in a breakup,
but I've actually arrived at a pretty good spot where
I'm genuinely happy. I'm genuinely happy that he looks good.
Doesn't do anything for me. I'm not diving back in.
I moved on. I'm good. But I'm like Michael Caine
when he not to Christian Bale at the end of
at the end of the Batman trilogy. Right, just you
look good, man, you look good. And then I'm just
gonna go back to ignoring the Pelicans because they're twelve
and thirty two. Well they gonna do with b I
should have turned it in before the season. I mean,
that is gonna be the thing that for me, like
is a straw that breaks the camel's back for David
Griffin not not, I don't care. I mean, I don't
care if you have to take a discount or take
a bad deal like it just it doesn't make any
sense that I think there were Raptors rumors maybe the
other day with Beyond the Raptors. It just sucks because
I love David Griffin's I just love how he talks.
I love his loquacious nature, and I can get sucked
in by that stuff and convince that you're like super
smart and gonna be a guaranteed success. And Griffin had
me hook Line and Sinka, but objectively the results have
been awful. And I don't know how you could choose
him to continue to lead when your tane gentry brought
in Gundy. And I actually think Willie Green has potential
but has had some bad things go against him. But
at the end of the day, it's gotten to be
a large sample size as well, So.
Speaker 5: So it looks like the latest for brandon Ingram would
be potentially to get traded to the San Antonio Spurs.
Speaker 6: I actually like b E. I don't hate that no eyes.
Speaker 2: But the Eye's problem is sometimes like he works his
ass off. It's a toughness deal though, because him with injuries,
like there are definitely times when he could come back
and he just like for whatever reason, does but when
he's on, he's locked in. He gives you everything that
he has. I don't think that's the problem with the
eyes all at all. Alvo says, happy for what we're
about to be in the cuckchair watching Zion thriving his
next scene. That's true, that's true. Whatever I mean that like,
just happy for me. It looks good. That's fine. You know,
like the ship of Thesis, the Pelicans will sail on
and they'll probably be the same god awful ship that
they've always been.
Speaker 6: So whatever, you're not replacing the parts.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. Well, I mean, we are going to that,
it doesn't matter. You're gonna replace the Zion main staff
with another one. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 6: Not Wimby, sorry about it. I know, actually not, I know.
Speaker 2: Maybe they get the number one. Pick again. Hell yeah,
third times of charm, right, I mean gotta work out
this time, dude. Uh, anyway, I'm happy Ion, you look great, man, Yeah,

Speaker 2: It was an evening I shared with the sung to
find out where we belong.
Speaker 1: From the.
Speaker 2: Estates.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to more sports talk. What's some other stuff
mixed in off the bench with hester Auntie Bob.
Speaker 2: Because I got most because I got to welcome back
to off the bench. So have you seen the Nyser
four kron story. I have no idea. I gotta pa.
I don't I didn't care to look at how to
pronounce his name. I don't know if I'm right or
wrong there. I don't even know what you're talking about.
Is Wisconsin quarterback corner back? Oh? Yeah, the D two
D three kid? Yes? So uh. He is the latest
to challenge the NCAA on eligibility issues. As Nyser says, uh, look, man,
you're telling me my five years of eligibility is up.
But I'm played two years of D two shouldn't count,
so he's suing the n C double A. Look. To
be clear, if you remember the Diego Pavia story, Diego
Pavia sued the NTLA, saying that why should my juco
count when it's not under I think the na umbrella.
Diggo's been granted an injunction, which basically just means he's
eligible for now and probably for likely the season because
the court case won't be till afterwards, until the courts
can rule whether or not he's right or wrong. So
what do we always say about our guy? Via Layers
Patrick Cullis, When it comes to precedent, no man considers
a course base for himself that has proven profitable to others. Okay, Well,
Nyser said, Oh that worked for Diego, i'most see if
it's gonna work for me. And he's basically doing the
exact same thing, you know, Anti Trush Sherman Bob, saying
that his D two years should not count against his eligibility. Jake, Jake,
you were you were very cool with Pavia, Yeah, being like, yeah, dude,
let the guy play. How we feel about Nyser.
Speaker 5: I'm still okay with it you're coming from a lower division.
Now here's the problem though, Okay, Division two is within
the NCAA and okay, and Juco's officially not and JUCO
is not.
Speaker 2: Okay, that is that would feel like in the legal
setting that would matter a lot. Here, I think it is.
I think it's going now.
Speaker 5: The NCAA has not had great fortune in a courtroom
anytime lately, so I don't know, but that would probably
be their biggest argument is, well, they still fall under
the same umbrella as fcs FBS.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so maybe that can be there out there.
Speaker 5: I'm all four kids, you know, like that that are
playing up and playing at a different level, you know,
maybe at one extra year.
Speaker 2: So I don't know. I I mean, look, this is
the slippery slope that we were talking about. The kind
of continued erosion of eligibility continues. Now. To be clear,
the j come front, it's not actually been ruled on
yet and it won't be for a while. It is
a temporary injunction here that's allowing PAVIA to play. So
we don't know where the courts will land on this
in a long term. Since but I didn't love it
with PAVIA. I accepted though, the kind of legal element
of like you said outside the NTA Umbroud.
Speaker 5: What was your biggest problem with Pavia? I just you
hate Vanderbilt. No, you hate clark Lee, No, I hate fullbacks.
Speaker 2: No, I Ashville. I think you can pay go pay
another quarterback if you want, if you'r Vandy, right, No,
it's it's it is that. I mean, look, on a
personal level, I am happy for Pavia because he's obviously
not gonna be a NFL guy and he's able to
make money and that's awesome, and I want all these
cats to make money. I don't love like one of
the things I love though about college football is the turnover.
It's the new faces, and it's it's the challenges of
having to rebuild rosters do all these things. And it
gets kind of more and more boring with I don't know, like,
where is it. What's the next argument that's going to say, well, actually,
you're violating Sherman Andy trustlaws because you're not allowing me
to play an ath or blah blah blah blah. Where
is it in? And And yes, slippery slope arguments are
always used by people to they're kind of weak arguments,
right because a lot of times they be like, well,
if this happens, and this is gonna happen, and the
second thing they say is like crazy and really out
of pocket, but does kind of fit in with an
overall pattern of just erosion of like all eligibility rules
in many ways, And where does it en and does
it just become a full semi pro league where you
can't kick anybody out?
Speaker 6: Ever?
Speaker 2: I don't know. No, I mean I'm with you.
Speaker 5: I'm with you because as much as I love cam Rising,
my brother, it is time, as Will Campbell would say,
to go work at Amazon. I love you, great hair, tough,
you're old, it's time to move on. So I am
with you in some of that. You know, there's there's
there's push and pull. Dylan Gabriel this year, like he
you know, he's an older guy, like he got another year.
That was kind of awesome to see him go out
there to Oregon after Oklahoma's like, now we're good, we're
gonna go roll with Jackson Arnol and he's like, oh okay.
Bet he goes and does what he does. But there
there does come a point where you're like you gotta
move on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got It's.
Speaker 5: It's time because to what you're saying, there's no way
that players like I'm gonna listen to LSU players myself,
maybe Justin Jefferson, Lloyd Cushionberry, Boston Moreaw.
Speaker 2: Duke Riley, Deebo Jones.
Speaker 5: None of those players probably get a scholarship to LSU
in the current format because they were we were risk
Like you had to take a flyer on us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, being lower rated guys you were not by the
way you were highly I didn't know where you were
going with that. I thought you were doing anything where
Like what if those guys got to stay in college,
how good would they have been? No? No, no, no no.
Speaker 5: I was saying like you could take a chance on
a Jets or whoever because you had a spot for them,
and like now, like that spot's probably not there for
that player. So you know, part of me being a
part of that conversation, Yeah, it's you know, you reach
a certain point, like I think Diego Pobby is a
little bit different because Juco is not the NC double A.
Speaker 2: Sure's good. It's a good point, legal point.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and the Juco's that's a tough living and playing
Juco football, not Jukua baseball where it's a little bit,
you know, on a higher level, nicer facilities and different things.
I'm not saying Juco baseball is the best, but you
know what I'm saying, Juco football is not. No, we've
all seen last chance, you like, we know what that
grind is. So there's certain cases, but for the most part,
you're probably right, like, go ahead, go get a job.
Speaker 2: Well, my deal is, yeah, I want to Diego pob
be paid, but I want the next Diego Pobby to
be paid too. And if these guys just keep sticking around,
there's no opportunity for the next guy either. So you
know you paved the way of the next generation. All right,
when we get back, let's go ahead and wrap up
our number one here or excuse me, that's not true.
Is it our too? You said that my body shut
down our two a vote to be Actually, we're gonna
do Tatane's inefo story in the day day next. Keep

your daily dose of NFL news from Taylor Sharp.
Speaker 3: Guys.
Speaker 2: Does Swift being at the Super Bowl raised the prices
of tickets? I would say yes. I wouldn't think so.
As of yesterday on the secondary market, the average ticket
price for a single ticket to the super Bowl ten
three hundred dollars is the average price. Cheapest ticket to
get in fifty four hundred, cheapest Lower Bowl eighty five hundred. Yeah,
if you want to sit fifty yard line at the
super Bowl right now, fifty four thousand dollars for a
single game ticket. It's not for US commercials eight million
dollars for a thirty second commercial. This is like the
equivalent of you know, getting to go to the gladiatorial
games in Rome. Okay, it ain't for the people living
on the the the you know, the the townships outside
the city. Is for the big merchants, the senators, the
big wigs.
Speaker 6: I will say, you know how, we're gonna be there
next week all week. I'm just thinking, like, there's gonna
be a bunch of men with money out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good luck.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: T was like, but are giving up on suck. I
mean he loves the UFC. Yeah, but he doesn't seem
like a He didn't seem like a super Bowl guy.
Speaker 6: Isn't he also like five to four?
Speaker 2: I don't know that does a matter? That don't make
his bank account any's money? Six when he stands on
his wallet, that's.
Speaker 6: A man.
Speaker 2: But the money than the guy that I'm with. The
money coming into New Orleans, Yes, yeah, is incredible. Jesse
shod CON's yacht. It's parked at the Port of New Orleans. Yeah,
a shot Con has his giant to eight one hundred
foot three hundred and sixty million dollars yacht. This yacht
here has a basketball court, it has a movie theater.
It costs thirty six million annually just to maintain maintenance
and and all that. So just think about how much
money is in the Super Bowl right now? Tight? Cool.
My wife, bless Her, didn't know anything about sports at all.
A couple weeks back, she was like, my birthday is
on the Super Bowl.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: She was like, I think about getting you a couple
of Super Bowl tickets. I was like, girl, how much
you think they are? It's like, I don't know, like
like five hundred dollars and that's for Victoria yesterday.
Speaker 5: I was like, I thought that was probably, Like, that's
a great She was like, I got it that.
Speaker 2: Victoria say the average price of a Super Bowl ticket,
and Victoria goes, this might be high, but like average
price probably like fifteen hundred.
Speaker 5: Ten thousand, dude, I no, I mean the most I
ever paid for a ticket in my life was to
t Bob y'all's National championship game in twenty eleven.
Speaker 2: Those are like thirty five I know, I'm sorry, dude,
rated a lot of people's mortgages that day. Yeah, what
my fault? You didn't play exactly? Its Taylor's fault. Next
off the bench after the game, uh, Les Miles actually
told me I never told anybody this. So it's funny
because you're only getting this if you're listening live. But
lets told me that he didn't put a Jay Lee
in the game because Taylor told him not. I know,
I know, I said, why are you listening to this
