00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,599
wait on the other corner or just around the corner,

24
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:42,239
but worked a lot of holidays and holiday adjacent days

25
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:43,079
in this business.

26
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,319

Speaker 6: A top three all time.

28
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 5: Bad day to not take off, and it's it's not

29
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,799
even particularly close. And I feel like I started to

30
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,359
wake up to this last week when I start hearing that, Yeah,

31
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,000
like basically everybody's out the next two weeks because you

32
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,280
get christ Chris Day, you get news even Newsday. Really

33
00:02:08,479 --> 00:02:11,919
just this is where my lack because I never think

34
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,680
ahead of time about anything, right, you know how I am,

35
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,800
like with vacations and everything, like where are you going?

36
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,879
Like I don't know, you know, we're going somewhere in

37
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:23,120
Florida or somewhere here somewhere there. Just I just don't

38
00:02:23,159 --> 00:02:24,520
think ahead of time. I never planned at them and

39
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:29,120
just kind of do what comes and then Uh but yeah, man,

40
00:02:29,199 --> 00:02:32,360
big value missed out here, right right? You could you

41
00:02:32,479 --> 00:02:34,879
you could use six days and get a full two

42
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,039
weeks off, you know, or even just do today and

43
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,120
tomorrow and then you roll and then and then you

44
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:41,919
would have rolled.

45
00:02:41,719 --> 00:02:42,719
Speaker 4: Into it's just.

46
00:02:44,479 --> 00:02:47,879
Speaker 5: Christmas Day into the I mean, this is kind of

47
00:02:47,879 --> 00:02:50,159
the ultimate Monday in a lot of ways.

48
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,479
Speaker 4: Right on a Thursday, and.

49
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 5: I got a garage full of Christmas detritus, boxes and

50
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:05,719
new stuff, and I had to somehow fix and organize.

51
00:03:05,759 --> 00:03:09,960
Gotta get that dead ass tree that I forgot to

52
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000
continue water in like a week ago, is now just

53
00:03:13,199 --> 00:03:16,199
brittle and crispy. Gonna think we're gonna burn it on

54
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,680
New Year. So that's gonna be fun. Yeah, pick up

55
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,879
the ornaments, like, oh jeez, but here we are. We're

56
00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:25,439
gonna talk about sports, I guess. And I didn't watch

57
00:03:25,439 --> 00:03:29,759
a single second of anything, literally didn't watch it.

58
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,719
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, the TV mainly.

59
00:03:33,439 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 5: For the kids all day, and plus I mean there

60
00:03:36,879 --> 00:03:39,520
wasn't much to see in the thirty four to zero

61
00:03:39,599 --> 00:03:44,000
beatdown or the thirty four to two beat out. Even

62
00:03:44,039 --> 00:03:46,319
the Chiefs got their biggest win of the season by

63
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,840
nineteen points fifteen and one, and that's their biggest win.

64
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,479
So I don't know, Today's gonna be a weird show.

65
00:03:53,879 --> 00:03:56,840
You can believe that, as I even left my laptop,

66
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,319
brought my life, brought my back back, opened it up Nola.

67
00:04:01,319 --> 00:04:05,919
Yeah yeah, yeah, so we'll see, we'll see. But that said,

68
00:04:06,199 --> 00:04:10,960
I am filled with the warmth of gratitude and love

69
00:04:11,159 --> 00:04:16,279
and family and Christmas as it was a fantastic Christmas

70
00:04:16,519 --> 00:04:18,800
holiday with the fam.

71
00:04:18,879 --> 00:04:23,399
Speaker 4: What about you, Jake? Today does feel like, you know,

72
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,920
being here, it is what it is. It does feel

73
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,839
like we're here. I need stuff, But it does feel like, uh,

74
00:04:29,959 --> 00:04:32,639
you know, in Major League. When they call Jake Taylor

75
00:04:32,759 --> 00:04:36,279
to tell him he's been invited to spring training, He's like,

76
00:04:36,399 --> 00:04:37,480
is that you, Tolbert.

77
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,319
Speaker 7: I'm hungover and my knees are killing me. It feels

78
00:04:42,319 --> 00:04:43,040
a little bit like that.

79
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,439
Speaker 6: Actually, both those are true.

80
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,879
Speaker 5: I've eaten so bad that I've given myself knee problems.

81
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like I don't know what's going on.

82
00:04:51,639 --> 00:04:53,519
Speaker 5: I think I'm swelling up my whole body with all

83
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,600
the salt intake because I can barely bend my left

84
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:57,240
knee right now.

85
00:04:57,319 --> 00:05:01,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, So if I had to describe phils, that's kind

86
00:05:01,399 --> 00:05:02,360
of how it feels today.

87
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,079
Speaker 5: So as dumb as we are, though we're not nearly

88
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:11,240
as dumb as Taylor all who loves to be And

89
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,439
this is a good thing for all you gen zers

90
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,240
out there, and this is why Taylor is going to

91
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,000
be very successful eventually. And I'm proud of him, but

92
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,720
do not envy him on a day like today. So

93
00:05:23,759 --> 00:05:25,360
he said, this is a top three dumb day to

94
00:05:25,399 --> 00:05:29,680
work all time. Taylor is doing this show, hosting Hunt show,

95
00:05:29,879 --> 00:05:31,639
and then doing AFR.

96
00:05:31,879 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 4: Oh I didn't as well?

97
00:05:33,959 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, video if you are, and you know, on a

98
00:05:38,759 --> 00:05:40,759
show like today where prep is going to be at

99
00:05:40,759 --> 00:05:44,199
a minimum anyway, he's basically pseudo hosting this show as

100
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,959
well and AFR.

101
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 5: And so if you are listening to sports Talk Radio

102
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,519
today here and Baton Rouge, just know Taylor's along for

103
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,720
the ride for all eight on air hours, not to

104
00:05:57,759 --> 00:06:00,360
mention all the behind the scenes work. They tell you,

105
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:01,800
what's up, man, how are you feeling today?

106
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I was feeling good until the realization

107
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,480
of that sunk in.

108
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 2: But no, I'm doing good. Look, Hunts Kid's birthday is today, yep.

109
00:06:12,399 --> 00:06:15,279
And he was supposed to take off and didn't.

110
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,759
Speaker 1: And we were talking Monday and he's like, man, you know,

111
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,160
listen is gonna be mad. I thought her I was

112
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,360
gonna take off and I didn't. And you know, the

113
00:06:21,399 --> 00:06:23,399
longer I was sitting there, I'm just I'm too nice

114
00:06:23,439 --> 00:06:23,759
of a guy.

115
00:06:23,759 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: I walked up to his.

116
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: Office and I said, look, I'm here till six regard.

117
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,720
Let's just go just just take off.

118
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 2: I'll do it. And he didn't.

119
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 4: He didn't want to do it.

120
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,199
Speaker 1: To Hunt's credit, He's like, no, I'm not gonna do

121
00:06:33,199 --> 00:06:36,639
that to me. I was like, just go, I'll handle it. So, uh, yeah,

122
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:37,879
we're in for the long haliday.

123
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,319
Speaker 7: Look, I just I tell Hunt, hey, that's just bad timing, Bud.

124
00:06:43,399 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 5: I do like though, the go get her attitude. I

125
00:06:47,759 --> 00:06:49,800
think that will bear fruit in the end. I mean

126
00:06:49,879 --> 00:06:52,639
I remember, you know, and you know, kind of pre

127
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,120
kids or maybe at the beginning to have one or

128
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,439
nothing or whatever. It's like, you know, when AFR would

129
00:06:58,439 --> 00:07:01,000
open up, I would almost always go to host that

130
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,879
try to get them hosting jobs. Maybe at the time,

131
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,519
like I feel like it was a it was a

132
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,120
different audience to get in front of. So uh, there's

133
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,839
something to be said for putting in those long days,

134
00:07:11,959 --> 00:07:15,199
especially with your young enough and full of the vim

135
00:07:15,199 --> 00:07:18,519
and vigor with which to do. So, Beck, what does

136
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,079
your day look like? Of course, Alandra is smart playing

137
00:07:22,079 --> 00:07:27,360
out ahead. Is somebody who very efficiently has navigated these

138
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:28,079
two weeks off.

139
00:07:28,319 --> 00:07:31,279
Speaker 9: Yes she has, I will say, though it wasn't super

140
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:36,639
far far out planned. But but anyways, yeah.

141
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,759
Speaker 5: Okay, so we can unpack that a little bit because

142
00:07:38,759 --> 00:07:44,040
there's obviously a quite clear subtext in which Alandra did

143
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,160
this last minute.

144
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,079
Speaker 4: And you feel you feel as.

145
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,839
Speaker 5: If you got h you were you were a fish

146
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:51,879
just swimming along.

147
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 4: There's a tasty worm, you take.

148
00:07:53,519 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 5: A bite, and next thing you know, it's seven am

149
00:07:56,279 --> 00:07:58,199
on December twenty sixth, and here you are.

150
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,879
Speaker 9: Well, I'll just say this, I'm I'm with I'm with Taylor,

151
00:08:02,079 --> 00:08:04,759
uh in the fact that I'm just too nice of

152
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,639
a guy probably and uh, you know, I I saw

153
00:08:09,319 --> 00:08:12,160
there was a need for for someone to the year,

154
00:08:12,319 --> 00:08:15,639
so I decided that h I would say yes, hell.

155
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 5: Yes, Beck, there we go. Dude again. Look at that

156
00:08:18,279 --> 00:08:24,319
not one but two go getters providing hope for for

157
00:08:24,519 --> 00:08:29,079
the cynical, old, jaded men who believe that nobody wants

158
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,560
to work anymore.

159
00:08:30,639 --> 00:08:32,759
Speaker 4: So are you just doing this show today? What is

160
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,879
this show? I mean?

161
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 9: And and I honestly probably will end up doing a

162
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:38,559
far because I don't even know if we have an

163
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,200
audi producer for that right now we do not as

164
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:43,240
a right.

165
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 4: Now, where's Moose the bash Bros?

166
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 2: Especially for Moscow. I'm filling in for Paul.

167
00:08:50,759 --> 00:08:51,519
Speaker 4: Even the boss.

168
00:08:51,759 --> 00:08:54,159
Speaker 7: Even the Boss is playing Hiky the bash Bros.

169
00:08:54,399 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 6: Well, smart yeah. I mean, look again, man.

170
00:08:56,799 --> 00:09:01,559
Speaker 5: It's I'm not I I fully I'm I'm I'm fully

171
00:09:01,759 --> 00:09:05,440
uh supporting everybody taking off. You know that I am

172
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:09,240
a I'm a firm believer. We do not live to work,

173
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,399
We work to live. I'm more upset than my own

174
00:09:14,399 --> 00:09:19,679
uh kind of disorganized. How I'm more upset than my

175
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,879
own chickens have come home to roost, you know, Like, Uh,

176
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:28,600
this is not somewhere you cannot I cannot look and

177
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,960
I cannot point any fingers if I do have four

178
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,240
fingers pointing back at me. There's only one place to

179
00:09:34,279 --> 00:09:36,080
look here, and it's in the mirror, you know.

180
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 4: But hey, we're gonna have some fun today. I'm sure. Look,

181
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,399
we're gonna find some fun today. Uh.

182
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 10: And there there's a few things.

183
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,879
Speaker 5: To talk about, you know, what's funny, and like the

184
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:51,960
same way that like Gallows humor is like you're about

185
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,320
to die. But the absurdity of it all you you

186
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,600
you start to laugh because what else can be done?

187
00:09:59,320 --> 00:09:59,759
Speaker 4: Uh?

188
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 5: Just looking at the Saints box score and looking at

189
00:10:03,159 --> 00:10:06,399
the players that are on an NFL football field for

190
00:10:06,519 --> 00:10:09,320
your New Orleans Saints, and then understanding that the GM

191
00:10:09,639 --> 00:10:14,919
is completely untouchable it's again, it's it's it's it's black humor,

192
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:24,559
the darkest of humors. You don't even have any portal

193
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:25,559
editions to talk about.

194
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,279
Speaker 7: Even the portal took a nap.

195
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 4: Even the portals nappy.

196
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 5: What yeah, uh, DJ Pinket's practicing.

197
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:40,279
Speaker 4: With the team. We have video. Was that the least

198
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,000
excited you've ever been for a New Orleans Saints Monday

199
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,559
night game? Because I didn't watch a second of it.

200
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:51,159
I think people, certainly our AHD and certainly a little

201
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,080
bit older, it just didn't happen.

202
00:10:53,399 --> 00:10:55,519
Speaker 7: No, Like the Saints didn't get Monday night games. And

203
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:56,840
if they did, oh.

204
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 4: I see where you saying, yeah, yeah right, if they

205
00:10:58,759 --> 00:11:01,000
if they did, it was like, oh, oh my god,

206
00:11:01,279 --> 00:11:04,679
get in front of the TV, have everything ready beforehand,

207
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,639
like you prepared for it, like it was a vacation.

208
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,679
And they played on Monday night this last Monday, and

209
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:16,399
it was background fodder. Yeah yeah, because that's how bad

210
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,919
they are, right it? And you knew that. I mean,

211
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,720
fourteen points spread in the NFL's that's.

212
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,039
Speaker 7: Like forty two in college.

213
00:11:25,279 --> 00:11:30,519
Speaker 5: To your point as well, you're right, like Saints never

214
00:11:30,639 --> 00:11:35,240
used to get that primetime stage. Then during the Breeze

215
00:11:35,279 --> 00:11:39,919
Payton era because they were so dominant and so exciting,

216
00:11:40,399 --> 00:11:42,720
and when it such a high clip, they became one

217
00:11:42,879 --> 00:11:46,799
of the most featured primetime teams.

218
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,759
Speaker 4: And so I'm not sure.

219
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know how many times can you

220
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,960
put a nail in the coffin right, how many times

221
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,399
can you shut the window or whatever? We all know

222
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,639
it's been showing. I'll know it's been dead. But symbolically,

223
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:09,399
maybe this was the final dirt being shoveled on the

224
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:14,559
Breeze Peyton era, as you have fallen so far as

225
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,879
to only be rivaled by that of Lucifer, the ultimate

226
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:25,039
fallen angel. The heights that you once occupied, those fluffy

227
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:32,559
clouds and golden gates, now replaced by flame, ash and

228
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:38,919
weeping and gnashing of teeth. But in this Christmas season,

229
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,919
who knows, perhaps there's hope for some sort of rebirth.

230
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:48,519
I don't know that I see it, but you can

231
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,080
look around the NFL and fortunes can change quickly, but

232
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:53,600
hard to have too much faith.

233
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,559
Speaker 4: Wasn't leadership The one thing that I think, this is

234
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,879
what you said. The one thing you wanted to see

235
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,120
was Ken J. Miller take his opportunity and to do

236
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:09,200
something with it. Yeah, he had eight carries for fifteen yards,

237
00:13:09,519 --> 00:13:12,879
one point nine yards per rush, and that's with having

238
00:13:12,919 --> 00:13:13,799
a ten yard run.

239
00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 7: He had eight for fifteen.

240
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 5: I mean, so in the offensive line, you've got a

241
00:13:18,759 --> 00:13:21,720
lot of draft capital invested. Unfortunately it's okay, but I

242
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,919
mean you have second round, first round, was Caesar recent first?

243
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:25,279
Speaker 4: All right?

244
00:13:25,399 --> 00:13:28,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you get sick around McCoy, first round of Reeves,

245
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,519
first round and Pinning first round.

246
00:13:30,519 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 4: Inkwanga. It's put a lot in there.

247
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 5: It's and you know, honestly, they they've been better with

248
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:35,759
all this year. You kind of wish it'd be a

249
00:13:35,799 --> 00:13:37,759
bit better that much put in there. But I mean, Jake,

250
00:13:37,919 --> 00:13:38,919
you look everywhere else.

251
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 4: You got a.

252
00:13:39,399 --> 00:13:43,399
Speaker 5: Fifth round quarterback, third round running back. Fullbacks don't get

253
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:49,080
drafted your receiver. I don't know where your receivers were drafted,

254
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,360
but nobody knows, because.

255
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 4: No, we don't want to. We don't know who the

256
00:13:51,519 --> 00:13:56,480
receivers are. It's insane.

257
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 6: The team that Mickey Loomis is fielding right now.

258
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 4: The leading receiver for this one was Foster with two

259
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:05,919
catches for thirty three yards.

260
00:14:06,279 --> 00:14:09,799
Speaker 6: When was Foster drafted, he's a fourth rounder.

261
00:14:11,799 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 4: I believe for the Raiders. Uh, followed by Dante Pettis,

262
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,919
Juwan Johnson, Kevin Austin Jr. Fourth round, Yeah, Kendre Miller,

263
00:14:21,279 --> 00:14:25,080
Jordan Mems, Cedric Wilson Junior, and then Mason Tipton had

264
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,120
a target. Might as well be May we hear so

265
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,320
much about Mason Tipton? I'm like, might as well?

266
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 6: Hey, don't you hate on Timpton just from making the team?

267
00:14:31,879 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 5: Should grinds the yikes?

268
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:42,039
Speaker 4: I don't know.

269
00:14:42,879 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 5: It's just a abandoned all hope ye who enter here?

270
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,320
All right, look, I I've done this, I said the tone.

271
00:14:51,559 --> 00:14:54,240
I think we're off to a bit of an overly

272
00:14:54,679 --> 00:14:59,080
negative start here. Okay, so let's talk when we get

273
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:04,639
back into some some kind of happy Christmas stories.

274
00:15:04,679 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 4: What happened would you do?

275
00:15:05,679 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 5: Let's see if we can invert this bird and uh

276
00:15:09,919 --> 00:15:11,559
invert the frowns as well.

277
00:15:11,879 --> 00:15:13,399
Speaker 6: Here and off the bench one O four or five

00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: Is ready to take care of your left taking the

283
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,000

Speaker 3: Welcome back to the best morning sports show around. Sorta.

285

every had a beautiful Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Christmas season.

288
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 6: With the family.

289
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,799
Speaker 5: Brian vertsus Taylor is a straw that stirs the drink

290
00:16:34,399 --> 00:16:36,120
known as Guarantee Media Listen.

291
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: I told him he's been listening to Chris Blair's broadcast

292
00:16:38,559 --> 00:16:41,399
too much, said straw stirring the drink back in studio.

293
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 5: Ah, I don't often find that I make drinks that

294
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,879
need to be stirred, but I think it's uh mainly

295
00:16:55,919 --> 00:17:00,759
a function of laziness as opposed to anything else, right,

296
00:17:00,879 --> 00:17:05,160
Like the the craft of the cocktail I think is

297
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,240
a bit lost on this generation. I go hang out

298
00:17:08,279 --> 00:17:12,160
with my wife's grandparents, old Nana and granddad, and you know,

299
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:16,599
they were those classic kind of seventies eighties couples or whatever.

300
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:16,880
Speaker 4: Jake.

301
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,680
Speaker 5: They have everybody over and they've got a full bar

302
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,119
laid out with all the vermouth and liqueurs and everything,

303
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,759
and they can make you a dirty Manhattan or a

304
00:17:27,799 --> 00:17:32,440
or an upside down pineapple, you know, or a or

305
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:33,559
a fuzzy bee hole.

306
00:17:33,799 --> 00:17:36,279
Speaker 4: I don't know what. I don't know cocktail names, but

307
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:40,240
they they like an old fashion. Yeah, but I'm talking

308
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:41,720
about being about that older generation.

309
00:17:41,799 --> 00:17:43,839
Speaker 5: They used to go harder than just an old fashion,

310
00:17:44,079 --> 00:17:46,799
and they could probably make a perfect old fashion, but

311
00:17:46,839 --> 00:17:51,359
they'd be sitting down here like creating egg white concoctions

312
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:56,160
and whatnot. And I just dump liquor into a glass

313
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,920
and decide whether or not I want to go through

314
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,440
the hassle of putting one or two ice cubes in it.

315
00:18:02,279 --> 00:18:06,079
Speaker 4: Perhaps. Yeah, did you ever check on your vehicle by

316
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,480
the way, Oh no, I forgot to do that. Yeah.

317
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,039
I came in today and I parked by tea and

318
00:18:12,079 --> 00:18:14,039
his lights on the inside a row and I told

319
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:15,119
him his lights were on.

320
00:18:15,279 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 7: He's like, yeah, cars pibably still running.

321
00:18:18,319 --> 00:18:19,559
Speaker 6: I should go, I should look at it.

322
00:18:19,599 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 4: No, I mean those Toyotas, they actually, if they're sitting

323
00:18:23,079 --> 00:18:27,279
idle for a period of time, they'll turn themselves off.

324
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,279
Speaker 5: There you go, There you go, shut out ol St, Toyota,

325
00:18:31,759 --> 00:18:34,799
Ulster Toyota of Baton Rouge dot com.

326
00:18:35,039 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 6: Unfortunately, Toyota fan is going on right now.

327
00:18:37,279 --> 00:18:41,519
Speaker 5: Not unfortunate for you you get incredible deals, but a

328
00:18:41,559 --> 00:18:48,480
bit unfortunate for the same because Jordan Love even though

329
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,880
it's not like Jordan Love did anything too outstanding.

330
00:18:51,279 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 6: I mean, what do you end up throwing for like

331
00:18:52,519 --> 00:18:53,799
one eight? I mean it was solid.

332
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, you didn't need to with.

333
00:18:57,519 --> 00:18:57,839
Speaker 4: Zero.

334
00:18:59,759 --> 00:19:02,279
Speaker 7: Yeah, Jacobs and Wilson, do you think.

335
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 5: Do you think running backs feel validated by all the

336
00:19:06,519 --> 00:19:10,400
guys who are forced to go and find their fortune

337
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,480
elsewhere and are absolutely dominating.

338
00:19:12,759 --> 00:19:15,160
Speaker 4: Yes, I mean, say Barkley.

339
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 5: Derek Henry, Josh Jacobs, all these guys that were awesome

340
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,039
and their own team said you're not good enough for

341
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,039
us to pay, and now the kicking House.

342
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 4: Now I would say this, I do believe Jake.

343
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,599
Speaker 5: It's a weird position where maybe like even though the Giants,

344
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,079
I mean no, I don't know if I believe that,

345
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,400
I was gonna say, like, it makes more sense for

346
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,720
a contender if they have the money to be like, okay,

347
00:19:37,799 --> 00:19:40,039
let's go in, because that can bring you to the

348
00:19:40,039 --> 00:19:44,160
next level. Whereas if you are like the Giants or

349
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:48,359
the Raiders or the Titans, and you're so bad, maybe

350
00:19:48,519 --> 00:19:51,079
like okay, just paying the running back isn't the way

351
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:55,519
to rebuild. But either way gotta feel validating for those

352
00:19:55,559 --> 00:19:57,880
guys to be having the success that they.

353
00:19:57,799 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 4: Are that's three of the four tough rushers in the

354
00:20:02,279 --> 00:20:05,920
NFL right now. I mean Saquon's one, Henry's two, and

355
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,640
then Josh Jacobs is four and only by a couple

356
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:13,799
of yards. He's behind Kien Williams from the Rams. So yeah,

357
00:20:13,839 --> 00:20:16,880
they feel justified. I mean their team basically, you know,

358
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,240
it's like, hey, running backs a dying position.

359
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:20,839
Speaker 7: We'll find somebody off the street.

360
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 4: Basically not off the street, but a little bit. We'll

361
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,720
find somebody else. We'll be fine. We're not paying running backs.

362
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,759
And then Saquon is going to be in the MVP discussion.

363
00:20:31,079 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 5: And the Giants are the ones that are especially dumb

364
00:20:33,079 --> 00:20:36,759
because they chose to pay Daniel Jones. Like the other

365
00:20:36,759 --> 00:20:39,240
guys at least aren't like paying a quarterback. They're just like, ah,

366
00:20:39,319 --> 00:20:39,799
we're just in.

367
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 4: Yeah.

368
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 7: I think Titans like, hey, we're rebuilding.

369
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 4: We're not gonna you know, sing a lot of money

370
00:20:44,319 --> 00:20:47,559
into one position right now. The Raiders are the Raiders,

371
00:20:47,559 --> 00:20:50,440
so we can all laugh at them. But yeah, I

372
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,519
think the Saquon certainly hurts the most because not only

373
00:20:53,559 --> 00:20:55,599
did you not pay you paid Daniel Jones, but he

374
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,559
also went to someone in your division and your owner

375
00:20:59,319 --> 00:21:02,720
is on record, we have video evidence saying we can't

376
00:21:02,799 --> 00:21:05,160
let this happen, and it happened.

377
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 5: Oh just oh good for them though, good for running backs,

378
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:15,359
Good for running backs, and for whatever vestige of fullbacks

379
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:16,279
are left as well.

380
00:21:16,599 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 4: Let's see. So for the Giants, you having to go

381
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:27,960
to thirtieth in rushing to find Tyrone Tracy Junior. For

382
00:21:28,039 --> 00:21:30,279
the Titans, it's a little bit better. Tony Pollard's a

383
00:21:30,279 --> 00:21:34,640
thousand yard rusher, so he's number eleven right now. And

384
00:21:34,759 --> 00:21:38,759
for the Raiders, let me be scrolling a while here.

385
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,480
Hold on, I got to hit show more because they're

386
00:21:41,519 --> 00:21:47,279
past fifty second. Oh fifty second, they're leading rusher.

387
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 6: Well, Tony Pollard.

388
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 4: Don't y'all need a running back? Taylor?

389
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:55,559
Speaker 2: Well, we had Tony Pollard. I wasn't sorry to see

390
00:21:55,599 --> 00:21:58,440
him go, but yes, we do still need a running.

391
00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 7: Back taking back.

392
00:21:59,279 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 4: He's Eleventh's a thousand yard rushing, a thousand yard rusher, dude,

393
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,759
Oh you got to you got Zeke though, Okay, that's cool.

394
00:22:07,839 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 2: Did he have a touchdown? He had a touchdown on Sundays?

395
00:22:10,599 --> 00:22:13,440
No shit, Uh we coo showed flashes.

396
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,279
Speaker 6: Okay, but whatever to Douce Vaughan, he's still there.

397
00:22:17,319 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 2: They just don't use him.

398
00:22:18,599 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 5: He's just not not big enough. Uh, Jake, how's Christmas?

399
00:22:23,519 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 4: Dude? It was good. I mean we you know, typically

400
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,359
either travel or we have a house full of people.

401
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 7: Just didn't work out this year. Had a couple of

402
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,160
people get sick.

403
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,279
Speaker 4: In the family, like right before and it's like a

404
00:22:34,319 --> 00:22:36,960
whole deal and some went to Florida. Son didn't so

405
00:22:37,319 --> 00:22:39,039
h you know, my side of the family, we do

406
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:43,160
Thanksgiving with them, and so Katie's family is typically Christmas time,

407
00:22:43,279 --> 00:22:45,920
but uh no, we just we sat around.

408
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 7: It was great family time.

409
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:48,559
Speaker 4: So that's not normal.

410
00:22:49,519 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 5: No, oh, because that's my ideal Christmas is on the

411
00:22:53,039 --> 00:22:57,359
actual even the day is to just be nuclear family. Maybe,

412
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,400
like my sister came in town because she's going to

413
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,519
spend it with and then my dad came over for

414
00:23:01,559 --> 00:23:01,839
the day.

415
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:02,759
Speaker 4: So that was very fun.

416
00:23:02,799 --> 00:23:06,039
Speaker 6: But I like, I like to be core nuclear family.

417
00:23:06,079 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 4: Even when we were living in California, we always had somebody.

418
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,079
Uh hell, we were living in a extended state hotel

419
00:23:13,279 --> 00:23:15,319
in Denver. I mean it was like a three bedroom deal,

420
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,640
but it was a hotel and we had family. Then

421
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,960
sits this something like that. Probably uh So, no, this

422
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:24,799
was the first time, but it was it was really

423
00:23:24,799 --> 00:23:27,920
not like I didn't want, you know, family around, but

424
00:23:29,319 --> 00:23:31,279
you know, we got a chance to sit around, watch.

425
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,519
Speaker 7: Movies, cook big meals.

426
00:23:34,519 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, watching football. Yeah. I wish the football is a

427
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,559
little bit better. But you know, at least it was on.

428
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,839
There's a big there's a big blind spot in sports

429
00:23:43,839 --> 00:23:44,720
for Christmas Eve.

430
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,279
Speaker 7: Yeah, nobody, nobody, It was nothing on No.

431
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 4: I mean there was one bold the Hawaii bull go

432
00:23:50,559 --> 00:23:51,039
double ot.

433
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:52,880
Speaker 6: There was I didn't watch it again.

434
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 4: There was five other times I think there was. Who won?

435
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,440
I think Santaose Stay the.

436
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 5: Badass receiver dude put up crazy d opped it out there.

437
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,240
Uh but I tell you, I'm shaking his head. You know,

438
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,799
didn't opt out today, Taylor Shark.

439
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,039
Speaker 4: I think we played a game on Christmas Eve, so

440
00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:14,519
it's not always been that way. But there was nothing

441
00:24:14,519 --> 00:24:17,160
all like and I'm not talking about like NFL NFL

442
00:24:17,759 --> 00:24:21,480
on Christmas it's a Tuesday, but like the NBA. Your

443
00:24:21,559 --> 00:24:25,480
ratings are just really down right now, they're bad, and

444
00:24:25,519 --> 00:24:27,799
you played four Christmas games, but you weren't going to

445
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,279
compete with the NFL. Why wouldn't Why wouldn't the NBA

446
00:24:31,559 --> 00:24:33,920
or the NHL look at that and be like, hey,

447
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,559
let's go dominate that day where nothing else is on.

448
00:24:36,759 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 2: South Florida won that game.

449
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:46,319
Speaker 5: Okay, whenever we whenever we get to whenever you get

450
00:24:46,319 --> 00:24:49,920
the ratings for all the respective sports yesterday, I.

451
00:24:49,839 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 6: Think it's going to be a really bad day for

452
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:52,200
the NBA.

453
00:24:52,559 --> 00:24:56,640
Speaker 5: Because you even had Lebron and Steph have an old

454
00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:02,480
school Curry Classic incredible duel up at the end, and

455
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,519
Lebron in the postgame talked made a comment about it.

456
00:25:05,559 --> 00:25:07,960
You know, this is our day talking about the NFL

457
00:25:08,079 --> 00:25:12,839
encroaching and it's not even going to be close. But

458
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,720
the thing is that it's not even a commentary on

459
00:25:14,759 --> 00:25:17,480
the NBA. You gotta understand, when it comes to ratings,

460
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,799
nothing will ever beat to the NFL. It doesn't matter,

461
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,400
it doesn't matter another sport at least. I mean, we

462
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,480
got the numbers of the college football playoff games now,

463
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,160
and this was expected, none of this was unexpected, but

464
00:25:29,319 --> 00:25:34,279
the NFL basically doubled a triple the two games they

465
00:25:34,279 --> 00:25:38,720
went head to head with and then when they didn't

466
00:25:39,039 --> 00:25:41,720
have an NFL game on college viewership went from eight

467
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,920
million and six million to about fourteen million for each game,

468
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,799
which again I would say, right in line with the

469
00:25:46,839 --> 00:25:49,000
numbers that we had kind of estimated, laid out a

470
00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:51,559
guest on and a good day for college.

471
00:25:51,599 --> 00:25:53,519
Speaker 6: But but just just keep the.

472
00:25:53,839 --> 00:25:57,079
Speaker 5: NFL's name out your mouth, probably right, yeah, because a

473
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:58,920
want to say, like, I'm a big fan of the NFL,

474
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:04,039
but this is our day. I mean it, it's it's.

475
00:26:05,599 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 6: Whatever part of the day the NFL doesn't want is

476
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:08,680
your day.

477
00:26:09,039 --> 00:26:11,799
Speaker 4: Well, I think the only thing the NBA ever beats

478
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:16,079
us in was player contracts.

479
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:22,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, smaller labor pool, more power, strongling, first weekly,

480
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,240
all those sorts of things.

481
00:26:25,319 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 4: That was always, you know, most popular sport in the country,

482
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:34,119
not even close. And really the most second most popular

483
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,240
sport is the one that's the feeder system too, the

484
00:26:36,279 --> 00:26:39,319
most popular sport. Yeah, and still like you know, the

485
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,799
contracts you got, you got guys that none of us

486
00:26:42,799 --> 00:26:44,880
in this room have ever heard of, like the ninth

487
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,960
guy on the bench making like seven million a year.

488
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,400
Again though, oh, it's roster size is fifteen to fifty three.

489
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, twenty eight teams, right or is it thirty thirty

490
00:26:54,279 --> 00:26:57,160
thirty thirty thirty in the NBA, Yes, thirty in the

491
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,440
NBA thirty two in the NFL and bigger rosters.

492
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, they just have power.

493
00:27:01,319 --> 00:27:01,759
Speaker 7: Oh the time.

494
00:27:01,839 --> 00:27:04,759
Speaker 4: That and the players Union for us wouldn't fight, like,

495
00:27:04,799 --> 00:27:06,839
there's what I will give that to them. Same thing

496
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,480
major League Baseball. You're not getting anything over on the

497
00:27:09,519 --> 00:27:13,079
Major League Baseball players Union just ain't happening. No, they

498
00:27:13,079 --> 00:27:15,319
won't play. Not the case.

499
00:27:15,559 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 7: But we got hey, no more to a days that

500
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:18,079
one time.

501
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 5: The problem is you just got too many gritty scabs

502
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:26,000
in football, yep. Whereas baseball such like a high skill

503
00:27:26,079 --> 00:27:28,119
sport that I don't care how gritty you are, you

504
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:28,960
just can't do it.

505
00:27:29,079 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can't get your way through baseball.

506
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 5: You just can't hit a crazy slider that's coming in

507
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,200
a one hundred miles an hour from Randy Johnson because

508
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,319
you're the toughest. Some bit are ound just just not

509
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:42,640
how it works. Unfortunately.

510
00:27:43,039 --> 00:27:46,400
Speaker 7: No, I wish it was. I wish it was. It's

511

Lefty on lefty and John Crux like sitting in the

520
00:28:11,599 --> 00:28:12,960
corner of the batter's box.

00:36:13,559 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 4: Of good.

660
00:36:14,639 --> 00:36:17,800
Speaker 7: The soccer commentators are the best Yeah, like they are.

661
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,199
Speaker 5: They're they're, they're, they're they're vocabulary, they're actually now they

662
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,119
paint the scene, and it's something that it's something that

663
00:36:24,199 --> 00:36:27,280
old sports writers used to do. If you go read

664
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,199
classic like sports writers from like the thirties and forties,

665
00:36:31,599 --> 00:36:33,880
and I find there's still a few left that kind

666
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,719
of do it right, Like Scott Rablay does a very

667
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,280
good job of some time of getting very rightly in

668
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,800
his breakdowns. Nick Underhill does a lot of great, very

669
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:48,880
interesting analogies, Like I loved his right up after Saints Packers,

670
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:52,079
where he's kind of just talking about the dismal gray

671
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:56,119
nature of the day, wet and cold and bleak in

672
00:36:56,199 --> 00:37:00,119
what a kind of perfect way to encapsulate exactly how

673
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,199
the New Orleans Saints feel right now.

674
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 4: So you see the lot I would say this.

675
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 5: I know beat writers you tend to be more just

676
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,800
info info, info, But guys, there's something to be said

677
00:37:10,559 --> 00:37:13,719
for painting the scene and painting the picture a little bit.

678
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 9: Black mother.

679
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 4: If we go back to nicknames right now, this ended

680
00:37:23,559 --> 00:37:26,039
up kind of being the name that we know them by,

681
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:30,599
Like Tiger Woods name's not Tiger, his name's not Tiger Eldrick, right,

682
00:37:30,639 --> 00:37:33,440
it is. Yeah, it's a nickname. It's a nickname. Or

683
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:37,000
is it like a t BO called tiger growing up?

684
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,159
I don't know, but his name is Eldrick. No, I

685
00:37:40,199 --> 00:37:40,679
know that, but.

686
00:37:40,679 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 5: I'm wondering, is this like a there's multiple levels to

687
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,360
a nickname. There's like a pure nickname, which when somebody

688
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:49,800
just made up to start calling your but he starts

689
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,760
calling you right, there's like I'm t Bob. Functionally, that

690
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,360
is my name, even though it's technically a nickname.

691
00:37:56,119 --> 00:37:59,440
Speaker 4: Nobody. Apparently his dad gave him that nickname when he

692
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:03,159
was born. Okay, okay, so you know any played by

693
00:38:03,159 --> 00:38:05,119
the dad knowing that Eldrick may have been tough to

694
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,599
achieve peak dominance with as a first name, because I

695
00:38:09,599 --> 00:38:12,639
mean he falls into the category of you know, Magic Johnson,

696
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,880
Like we don't call him Irvin, Yes, magic? Yes? Now?

697
00:38:17,039 --> 00:38:18,440
Was Magic always called magic?

698
00:38:18,559 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 6: Or did that come about?

699
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 1: That came out like after his play because he was

700
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:24,679
the way he was passing the ball. I think actually

701
00:38:24,679 --> 00:38:27,039
some sports writer whatever said like his play was magic

702
00:38:27,119 --> 00:38:28,400
and everybody just called him magic.

703
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:29,559
Speaker 4: So that's a true nickname.

704
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:31,639
Speaker 9: Yeah, that was That was one of the things too,

705
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,920
Like people would there were a lot of nicknames came

706
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,599
from like sports writers coming up with it. They would

707
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:39,760
say something about a player and a story and then

708
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:40,800
people just call him that.

709
00:38:40,559 --> 00:38:42,360
Speaker 4: That never happens anymore.

710
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:42,400
Speaker 6: Doctor j.

711
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,599
Speaker 5: I mean now, now, maybe it's like the Internet that

712
00:38:48,599 --> 00:38:51,039
does it, because like honey, Patrick came out of the Internet.

713
00:38:51,159 --> 00:38:56,199
Speaker 4: Right, Penny Hardaway not you know, Pennies. Yeah and for

714
00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:03,320
any Yeah, his so his nickname Penny. So his grandmother

715
00:39:03,599 --> 00:39:06,679
used to call him pretty, but she has such a

716
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:11,159
Southern accent that it sounded like penny no way.

717
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:17,079
Speaker 9: And so that's how he go. That's very Larry Johnson, grandmama.

718
00:39:17,159 --> 00:39:18,639
That's a good one.

719
00:39:19,559 --> 00:39:21,840

if you need to do some investigating.

824
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,599
Speaker 4: Here, it's okay. I don't worry about it. Jacob could

825
00:44:46,599 --> 00:44:47,639
be getting into the.

826
00:44:47,599 --> 00:44:51,559
Speaker 5: Uh gun smuggling market. It sounds like this is just

827
00:44:51,599 --> 00:44:54,559
a little tip for him being for him delivering the

828
00:44:54,599 --> 00:44:56,199
first package correctly.

829
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,039
Speaker 4: What do you do do you keyster the guns?

830
00:44:58,280 --> 00:44:58,320
Speaker 5: No?

831
00:44:58,519 --> 00:45:00,800
Speaker 9: I haven't even sticking a K four seven up there

832
00:45:01,519 --> 00:45:06,239
now that I think that might be challenging. Maybe unless

833
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,920
you took it apart and like kinda and now you

834
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:09,440
could do that.

835
00:45:09,639 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 4: Actually I did.

836
00:45:10,519 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 5: I'm I'm lying a little bit because the air pods

837
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,320
are great. But the thing that I use the most,

838
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,159
that was the other present that I got that I

839
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:24,559
love is a big, bad ass kitchen knife, like one

840
00:45:24,559 --> 00:45:27,639
of those like yeah, Viking level, like you know, you

841
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,800
probably see him when you see the guy outside ASMR

842
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:31,599
cooking with his.

843
00:45:31,679 --> 00:45:35,880
Speaker 4: Dog like you know, like anything, heating oil on stones

844
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:36,559
and whatnot.

845
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:39,039
Speaker 5: It's not that it's uh now, the blade is sharp,

846
00:45:39,079 --> 00:45:40,880
but I have like a I have like a knife

847
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,840
sharpener set up or whatever, so I can keep a

848
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:46,599
sharp blade. But the weight of this thing makes cutting

849
00:45:47,519 --> 00:45:50,719
so good, so so good man. It just it kind

850
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,320
of just it just it just almost cuts itself with

851
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:53,880
how it comes.

852
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:54,800
Speaker 6: I saw.

853
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:57,679
Speaker 5: I used it all day because did a turkey Christmas

854
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:02,480
Eve into a turkey gumbo? Yeah, yesterday, and it was fantastic,

855
00:46:02,639 --> 00:46:05,360
Oh so so good.

856
00:46:05,639 --> 00:46:06,599
Speaker 4: I went present.

857
00:46:06,679 --> 00:46:09,880

Speaker 4: So we went chili for Christmas even nice yeah hell yeah.

859
00:46:13,679 --> 00:46:16,760
Speaker 9: The crazy thing was it wasn't even cold on Christmas,

860
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,840
Like the gumbo was planned for my family and then

861
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:21,559
we ate it, but it was like hot, so it

862
00:46:21,639 --> 00:46:22,360
was kind of weird.

863
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, it is what it is. Yeah. The

864
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:26,840
last time it's been cold here, well it was freezing

865
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,840
last last year, it was it was like actually like thirty.
