see you guys have really been just just gardening those
NFL topics, using your tools, crooning of experience, getting into
justin Jefferson. Is Sam Donald his quarterback? Now that the
(01:09):
bad guy from a toy story?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Why are you gonna Why are you gonna do that
to An Sclum?
Speaker 4 (01:17):
I love Sam Donald.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
It was a time that I was watching Sam Donald
play and I was like, that's one of the best,
the most unique and fun usc quarterback that I've ever
seen to watch.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
He was spectacular.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
I mean he did stuff that Carson didn't do, Liner
didn't do, Barkley.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Guys like that.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
He was just spectacular he made Yeah, absolutely, I mean
guys would close in on the pocket and things would
collapse around him and he would jump up like a
volleyball player and throw it downfield. I mean he he
did some pretty spectacular things in that Rose Bowl victory,
which was Clay Hilton's like death rattle over Penn State.
Speaker 6 (01:59):
Speaking of, by the way, the Clay Helton's era there,
and you're probably gonna lash out of me for asking
this question, but how different really was the high points
of Clay Helton's era and where Lincoln Riley's at now?
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Not different at all?
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Okay, I mean other than well, look, the Rose Bowl
victory over Penn State was pretty significant for Clay.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
A Heisman Trophy winner for I'm sorry about that, LeVar.
A Heisman Trophy winner for Lincoln. That's you know, that
means a lot in recruiting and the Caleb Williams thing.
But you're right, I mean, at this point, flip a coin, right,
Other than the fact that Lincoln Riley had proven success
(02:45):
as a head coach, somewhere else I.
Speaker 6 (02:48):
Would describe and I'm sure there's you know, SC fans,
Southern cal fans who take issue with this, but it's
been a disappointment his tenure there thus far.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Maybe that'll change.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Well, the first year was pretty impactful and they did
great things and they played for the Pac twelve title and.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
If they won that winning, No, they didn't.
Speaker 6 (03:07):
You're right if you, if you, Here's all I'm saying is,
if you spend one hundred million dollars ninety on a coach,
ninety million, But let's just throw in the house, let's
throw in the nil everything else that went along with it,
which is probably even more than that, right, ninety yeah, right,
But I'm saying, how much money do you think they
put in nil?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Do you think they put in nothing?
Speaker 3 (03:27):
I'm not sure. Okay, let's ask me to be involved
with their nil and I have them.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
I'll get involved in get involved, start to shake it
some dope to anybody, shake it down.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
I'm not going to dinner. I'm not going None of
that is happening. Yes, we need to box that off.
I bit on that, but I won't do it. Well,
I have a lot of other people. You're got a price, Petross,
I'm gonna bet on it. Ninety million, one hundred million, whatever.
You get my point, Like it's a disappointment. I think
there's LSU.
Speaker 6 (03:56):
Fans right now who because of their win over Alabama
and beating Nick Saban. I believe in Brian Kelly's first
year that was like a moment of oh okay, we
did it, like they can't beat Utah.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
No, you're right.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
I mean I don't have I got no beef with
saying that Lincoln Riley's been a disappointment. I think having
to fire the whole defensive staff and the ad that
hired him, being exposed as an idiot, the old Bona
Reno and all those things that happened.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
He's still excited.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
No, No, I think he's been humiliated and he's hiding
back in Ohio.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
But that's really good to hide, right, No, I'm just
that's where he's from, you know now that time at
Cincinnati anyway, I just I saw the Justin Jefferson thing,
and I don't have much to say about Like this
guy got paid. It's like, okay, great, you know, a
great NFL player. But I was wondering who the quarterback is,
and I thought.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
We Jj McCarthy is eventually going to beat the guy.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Oh because because he's from the Midwest.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
No, because when you draft.
Speaker 6 (04:59):
Him that high, you're sending a signal to everyone out
there like this is gonna be our guy.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
You don't think Sam Donald can just take his chain
and then send JJ McCarthy packing. No, I don't know
that he's like Flynn did to Russell Wilson and Seattle Await. Yeah, yeah,
I just want Sam Donald to, you know, not be
an NFL failure of circumstance.
Speaker 6 (05:20):
I want to, like, I was really hoping. I shouldn't
say hoping. I was really curious to see if perty
got hurt last year, like a larger sample size of
what Sam Donald would look like in a Kyle Shanahan system,
because my theory was he was going to ball out,
and that system is favorable to any quarterback that plays
in it, which I mean Kevin O'Connell's system isn't that
(05:42):
far removed either, So I am really curious if he
does get the first shot when you're throwing to Justin
Jefferson and Jordan Addison you saw firsthand, and Hockinson and
Aaron Jones's back there now in the backfield with Kevin
O'Connell calling plays like he should be able to put
up some.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Good stats and flourish in that system, I would have imagine.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Well, look, I mean I talked about this two days
ago with you guys, now that we're doing some hardcore
sports talk, and maybe for a guy a college football
Hall of Famer like and I heard that new classes out,
but maybe for a guy like I don't know. I
think you put LeVar on any team in the NFL
at his time, and you know, you make Pro Bowls.
(06:23):
Your quarterback is such a and I have no frame
of reference other than talking to quarterbacks and having the
experience of watching guys develop over the years. But I mean,
if you get picked by the wrong NFL team, it
really is the difference between a long and storied career
(06:43):
and people not really thinking of you as a great
NFL quarterback. I mean, it's a tough, tough circumstance for
quarterbacks in the NFL as far as where you're picked.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Is that true? I mean it feels pretty true.
Speaker 6 (06:57):
I mean, look my journey, guess, because I want so
many different places. I felt that way, you know, and
I think even just like forget the NFL for example,
just look at my college experience. Granted I was young
when I played as a true freshman. But you know,
I wanted to go to Notre Dame and one of
the reasons was it was a West Coast system with
Ty Willingham. Now, that system and our play caller, it
(07:20):
wasn't necessarily the best, at least compared to what it
was the last two years, but I quickly learned the
difference in men play caller and the ability for that
play caller to give you more autonomy in the offense,
and how that can play play a role in what
you can do out there on the field. So, yeah,
the situation of circumstance you're born into or you inherit
(07:44):
sometimes plays a large role that I would generally compare
it like this, Like we all go on trips, right,
and you have different ways or modes of transportation of
getting there, and for the most part, like you want
as little variables that can come into play that could
disrupt your ability to get from point A to point B. Right,
(08:05):
So if you're driving, you're taking a train, you're flying,
whatever the case is.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
Like when you start looking at the reason why people hate.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
Travel, it's because there's always variables, right, Like, for example,
I've got to fly out from Miami, Well there's traffic.
So do I train? Do I drive? How do I
go about doing that? Last time I tried to do it,
there's an accident. There's all these different variables that play
a part and not being able to ultimately get to
you where you want to go. The plane gets delayed,
the customer service is terrible. Levar's lamented about that for years.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Now. Are you not a good traveler?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
LeVar?
Speaker 7 (08:36):
I'm a great traveler. Someone described it as hostile. Not
my way I've been. I've been described as hostile, but
that's not true.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Like when you say you're a great traveler, is it
like saying you know Genghis Khan was a great warrior?
Like you're a great traveler, but you're also brutal and angry.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
No, I'm not a.
Speaker 7 (08:55):
I will say I get very disappointed when I'm delayed
and that delay causes me to miss a flight.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Who do you take that out on?
Speaker 5 (09:06):
I don't Why are you trying to bake me here?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Well, I'm well, because I'm a I don't travel. I
mean I literally don't travel because I'm in agoraphobe and
I hate traveling that much. And if there is a
delay on the plane, I might start squirming like a
super Well, I.
Speaker 7 (09:21):
Will say, I would very say I'm not aggressive, I'm
not belligerent.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
I actually I try to be very very.
Speaker 7 (09:30):
Accommodating unless I'm being being talked to in a way
where I feel like I'm being brushed off or that
in this moment where something is more important, like getting
back to my kids or whatever it may be, seems
to be a joke, Like then I turn into an
(09:53):
a hole.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Did somebody say that to you and the plane not
getting back to your kids?
Speaker 7 (09:59):
Petro almost exactly the same exact way. Customer service lady
laughed at me like like okay, like you're trying to
get back to your kids, and like, but but lady,
I paid for a ticket, Like it's not like I'm
asking you to do me a solid, Like, hey, do
(10:21):
me a solid, do me a favor. No, you didn't
sit there and say, oh, you know what, let's be
delayed and let's cancel payment on you getting him. You know,
but we're going to give you the ticket anyway.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
You don't do that.
Speaker 7 (10:34):
You're not sitting there delaying us on being able to
pay for what it is that we're the service that
we're paying for. So my whole thing is is why
do you act so brand new when when customer service
is supposed to be a part of you accommodating the
people paid for. Come on, man, that's all I'm saying
(10:55):
with you, And this is exactly how I explain it. Yeah,
this is exactly how I playing it.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
Yes, and so so, not to get off on a
crazy wild tangent, but just to touch on what Petros
has asked and the way you responded to the way
you said, how if I get delayed, I'm just beside
myself basically, right, Well, that's in essence what it's like
when you're a quarterback left tackle block and everybody thinks
it's my fault. There's there's an element there that plays
(11:22):
a role in it. There's an element to the receiver,
there's an element to the play design, and sometimes just
you know, different things you could do or things you
could have changed beforehand whether or not you're getting that opportunity.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
So there's all those things that obviously like play a
factor into it.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
But there is no position that's more I guess reliant
on what's around them.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Now that being said, I personally believe.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
Though there's still a select few that no matter where
they go, they're gonna be able to elevate what's around them.
Like Patrick Mahomes is that Tom Brady is that. I
personally believe Aaron Rodgers Brady.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
I do.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
I honestly think Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Of course he developed into whatever he was, right, But
I think Tom Brady gets picked somewhere else and he
works at enterprise.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
Renne car Dang, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (12:09):
I don't know that I'll pick you up only because
we saw him go to Tampa and do it. Yeah
later sure, sure, But so if you're saying at the
beginning of his career, who knows. But it wasn't like
that was the easiest situation to enter it into either. No,
but it was like plinko, like we talked about the
other day. You could be right. And I remember Mahomes.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
I mean I called I don't know, maybe three or
four did you You might have seen Texas time I
called there, you know the Texas Oh that crazy one. Yeah, yeah,
Mayfield versus And I saw Look, I saw Mahomes I
don't know, four or five times in Lubbock. Outside of Lubbock.
I saw him once where he just looked like dog
ass could barely play. Probably was hurt. And it's not
(12:51):
like it's not like we didn't see that he was
a talented guy, right, yeah, But watching him at Texas Tech,
I didn't say, Wow, this is you know, this is
the next guy you know, And certainly no one said
that about Brady when he was at Michigan. And it's
interesting because because I know Andy Reid a little bit.
(13:12):
I know him, I see him around just through family friends,
and that's been a long long time, and I don't know,
I feel like Andy Reid, maybe it's revision is history.
But everybody was criticizing Pat's footwork and his inability to
play within an offense coming out of Cliff Kingsbury's weird offense,
which is, you know, not viable of what they were
(13:33):
doing at Texas Tag.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Which side note.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
It's funny how everyone's like, oh, you know Jayden Daniels
and Cliff Kingsbury's offensive.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Washington like, yeah, so.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
What, yeah, what's that gonna do for you?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Like, what do we expect to happen him?
Speaker 3 (13:44):
We're gonna run a little screen on the backside of
this play. Okay, so you know I didn't see that,
but it happened. But I mean, you could be absolutely right, Brady,
and you understand quarterbacking more than I do. But to me,
it's just it's a confounding thing that these cornerbacks only
(14:05):
one guy can play at a time. You get picked,
and in many ways you're a victim of circumstance, and
people don't look at it like that.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
They looking likely it's your fall.
Speaker 6 (14:13):
And I think the hardest thing about for JJ McCarthy
and even like Drake Mayho, I think was taking third
team reps. The last time I looked at was Jacoby
Brissett and Bailey Zappi. Then Drake Man, I'm like, dude,
you guys spent the number three overall pick like, like,
let the guy get reps in play because it's experience.
Like I think we all can relate with the fact
that the more we do something, the better we're all
(14:36):
going to get out.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
I don't care what you want to say. I truly
believe that if you're.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
Going to do something ten thousand times, I think we're
all going to be better at the end of those
ten thousand reps. Now there might be variations and who's
better than who, but I think we're all going to improve.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Well and there's also the variables of like who's on drugs,
you know, who's on the T train.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
Yes, I'm not sure where that really you know, falls
in there, but said that, it's the circumstance of life.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Yes, that's a circumstance of life.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
His baby's mom is causing trouble exactly.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
But the general point is when you're sitting behind two
of their guys who are getting those reps, you're like,
all right, Like this isn't helping me, Like the mental
rep thing. It's real to a degree, but there's a
very you know, it's like walking into one of those
like nineteen forties homes that the ceilings were like seven
and a half feet tall.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
It's a very short ceiling, you know, now to hit
your head when do you go in the basement.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
It's interesting, LeVar, because one of my best friends growing
up and who recently passed, Clark Hagen's a linebacker who
I played high school football with and we remained close
for years and played for the Steelers.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
You know, it's a very interesting path that he had.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
He was drafted like in the fourth round and he
was kind of a pass rushing combo with Joey Porter.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Everywhere he went. But Clark didn't play that much early.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
I mean he played, he was good, but he was
able to rest his body the first couple of years,
sign a second contract. You know, ended up having a
fourteen year career. And it's a little different for other
positions where you can come in and kind of ease
your way into it.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
That doesn't happen with quarterbacks anymore. Sometimes sometimes he's your
way in.
Speaker 5 (16:17):
Yeah, sometimes you can ease your way in.
Speaker 6 (16:19):
But I mean, Mahomes technically did I guess you say
Britty technically did to some degree.
Speaker 7 (16:23):
Sure, some would say easing your way in is the
best way to get in there, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (16:28):
And I remember Carson played behind John Kittna. I remember that, Yeah,
you know.
Speaker 5 (16:34):
I mean.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
So it is a but speaking of football and pro
football and the building of a team, yesterday I had
to leave my cocoon after doing two pros and a
cup of pee here the final hour and I will
be back tomorrow, but just just on for my normal guests.
Speaker 5 (16:50):
Sign. I think we should just be this. I just
think we should kind of just keep doing it.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
There'd have to be a raised involved, no, but I
do it.
Speaker 5 (16:59):
I mean that's out of my jurisdiction.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
But there is that there's that half hour when I
wake up that I'm paying the b I'm pretty bitter.
Speaker 4 (17:06):
But once I get on and get rolling, the you
know going.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
But the other thing I have to do is like
read the shampoo bottle or like a label of something
to like sort of warm up my voice because my
voice isn't the same.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Is that a good way to star as the shampoo bottle?
Speaker 3 (17:21):
I mean I did once when I was in the shower,
but my mother in law's here, so I'm not going
into that bathroom to take a shower. So today I
just read the Maker's mark bottle downstairs here Maker's Mark
Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
By the way, your bitterness in the first thirty minutes
after you wake up is well received on our show Betterness,
So I.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Mean, I think we're the perfect landing spot for you
to wake up in the morning.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I'll do it.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Get out some of that bitterness.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
I'll do it.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
No, i'll do it.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
I need to talk to Shappy, but I did yesterday
when I did not drive far from my house. Actually
I drove to the same and the route to where
Tiger Woods blew up his legs here in the well,
that's I'm just I was driving to the Rolling Hills
Country Club, which is where Tiger Woods was driving when
(18:11):
his legs fell off. Victor Brick on our show. Did
you hear what Victor Brick said about that? No, he
was reaching for a pill.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
It was like no, Vic, And then like a year
later we were A year later we were like, yeah, yeah,
I think you were right.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Vic.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
I'm sorry that we corrected you. But I met with
many of the Chargers yesterday at the golf tournament. As
you guys know, we have the Chargers on the A
five seventy.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Well we don't.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
We play him on an FM station, but my radio partner,
Matt Smith is the voice of the Chargers. He's there
played by play on the radio. So I do all
these events with him because we do the show together.
And saw a lot of people yesterday that we talked
to Joe.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Alt in person.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Dude, you know, I mean it's such a cliche to say, wow,
I saw that football player and he was really big,
you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (19:03):
Like I met Howie Long and I was shocked at
how big he is. And but it's true. Right, Yeah,
he's detruptive, Like we're around big people all the time.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
And then you like shake how he long's hands and
you feel like you're shaking the hand of like King
Kong or a statue.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
You're like, my god. You know his joints, you know
his elbows.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
He's huge, and uh, Joe All looked like and the
left tackle I played with at USC was he's a
right tackle, isn't all? But the left tackle I played
with an s He was six or eight, but he
looked like an upside down pyramid.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Right, yeah, this guy all, I mean, he looked like
a ship.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Coming into the harbor. He was, he was.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
It looks like a baby, doesn't he there's a baby face.
And he looked miserable in California, just miserable.
Speaker 5 (19:54):
Where do you think he'd be best suited.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
He's back in Minnesota, but you know, I mean, look,
he can live in Califul. The thing about La is
that people don't realize is Las so big and so sprawling.
It really has everything, and it has something for everybody,
even stiffs like alt and and I say that in
a very deffectionate way. It's just you know, he's a
(20:16):
Midwestern offensive lineman, and that's what he wants to do.
Says he's not going to eat at any restaurants until
his girlfriend gets here, so all he does is eat
at the facility and go home. And the Maconkey guy,
the other draft pick, was like, oh, I like it here,
and Al it's like standing off on the side like
shaking his head. No, it's terrible, but you could tell
(20:39):
that they love playing enough for Jim Harbaugh, and we
talked to Harbaugh and I reconnected with Harbaugh, and that
was interesting to see.
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Jim.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
He changed the entire format of the golf tournament to
make it more competitive. So how did he change the format?
I don't understand golf, you know, or how you know,
other than just the traditional way do it, So I
don't know what he did. He sent everybody out in
a shotgun way and they only played thirteen holes because
him and his brother used to sneak onto courses and
(21:09):
that's all they could play because they couldn't afford the
Kalamazoo Country Club or whatever. So we got into it
with Harbaugh. He whipped his tattoo out and did all
his stuff, so that was cool, and he was very uh,
he was in a good mood if you know what
I'm saying. Yeah, that could be a touch and ghosts.
Speaker 4 (21:26):
Well yeah, I can you know.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
But he was in full Harba mode, like he was
taking pictures with everybody and showing lom. I mean, okay,
it's a it was a golf event, so it.
Speaker 6 (21:36):
Was You think there's a part of that because like
he won the national championship, got the monkey off his back,
like he was the prodigal son who returned to Michigan
and brought them, you know, brought them that championship.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Do you think that's part of it? And that was
the lightness familiar and all that.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Yeah, the lightness I felt in his in his being
and I guess you know, I've known him since he
was a coach.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
Did I ever tell you guys about USD and Harbaugh?
Speaker 1 (21:59):
I might have. You said you you covered them, but
you didn't get Well.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
No, I had a cousin.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
I have a cousin who actually owns a very popular
restaurant called Zuzu's Pedals in Long Beach.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Get down a Long Beach too. Uh it's a brunch place.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
But I have a cousin, Evan, who was up going
down to USD and wanted to, uh, you know, wanted
to work on the football team or something, you know,
just to do something. My uncle called me and asked
me to call down there inside.
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Did he sound when he called you my uncle?
Speaker 4 (22:26):
Yeah, my uncle doesn't sound like my my uncle, Tommy.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
I want you to call Jim Harble So I super
calm right, So I was like, okay, you know, I'll call.
I remember I was driving on the one ten and
it was like, you know, like where you had like
the mobile phone like the ericson, you know, the one,
the one that came went up to your head and
you could just drive with the phone to your head
and no one cared.
Speaker 4 (22:49):
It was back in those days.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
And I just called the USD University of San Diego
for those of you, uh nationally of course, not not
a D one program, not a D two pro.
Speaker 4 (23:02):
I think they're a D three. Maybe they're D two,
but it certainly it ain't Notre Dame. And uh.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
I remember calling the football office and it rang twice
and the phone got picked up and it said football
and I said yeah, and I said, I'm looking for
Jim Harbaud, like to leave a message this coach, And
I was like, this is Petros Papae.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Yeah, Petros, I know you what's up?
Speaker 3 (23:31):
And I'm like, Jesus God, you know, well he remembered
well then yeah, me from the PAC twelve or PAC
ten Game of.
Speaker 5 (23:38):
The week, Sam this time too.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Oh yeah, for sure. Well I used to call like
we used to get in there. You know, we did
a lot of those Stanford Andrew Lock Toby Gerhart type
of games, you know.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
And and that was what I was going to.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Say, LeVar, Like the way he was acting and how
much fun he was having yesterday reminded me of when
Stanford had it going and no one expected them to
be good, and he was really kind of enjoying that,
you know.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
And then he were shadowing something here. Well I don't know.
I mean, he went to the Niners and what happened
the inevitable fight.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
With the with the GM and all that they were
still getting the right and then he went to Michigan
in times were a little hard at first until he
got all his people in there, and he seemed like
he was pretty happy with what was going on. But again,
I mean he made some enemies. I mean he left
Michigan for a reason. Uh, but at the Chargers. I
mean kind of like the Lincoln Riley you think you
(24:31):
guys were talking about. For better or worse. I don't
think the Spanos family has done this before. I mean,
they gave him the keys of the kingdom. He hired
all his people. Everybody that he wants is there, so uh,
and we talked to most of them. We talked to
Trustman and Joe Hortiz and all these guys.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
So h.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
So we'll see.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
But I mean, it certainly feels pretty good when you
got Harbaugh around, and I don't know any other coach.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Like that, do you.
Speaker 6 (24:57):
I mean, he is the most unique personality. And I
think the NFL too. We'll soon find that out. I
don't think.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
I think they've just got the tip of the icebergs.
Speaker 6 (25:05):
They saw him once before, but a heavier dose of
him with this team will be really fun.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
It's not the same as Blackbeard the Pirate Ryan Day
showing up, but you know it's pretty good, all right.
I'm sorry you guys don't like the black Beard joke.

Speaker 5 (29:53):
You're right?
Speaker 3 (29:54):
But this has been established since last Thursday. This is
what I jotted down all the things we talked about
since last Thursday. You guys can correct me if I'm wrong,
and maybe not exactly in this order. Darren Waller's relationship
sing Jay Rapp that it was not a proud moment
I think for Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
You guys remember that, right?
Speaker 5 (30:14):
Oh yeah?
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Was that Friday?
Speaker 5 (30:17):
Who care?
Speaker 4 (30:18):
USC?
Speaker 3 (30:18):
Notre Dame should be played forever, even if college football
goes away completely, even if.
Speaker 5 (30:23):
Colin caw Hurt says otherwise.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Exactly right, I don't care what you said, Cowherd.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Okay, take that back to Brentwood. You know what Cowherd
once asked Joy Taylor on the air. Oh no, if
she's more of a Wilshire person or a Montana person,
just about threw up in my hat.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
I don't even know what that means. It's a Santa.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
Monica reference, like do you like being down on Wheelshire
with like the hipsters or Montana with the rich.
Speaker 5 (30:47):
It's like, that's interesting exactly.
Speaker 3 (30:51):
We talked about head size many people on the Secret
Text al So chimed in on this. The secret textels
is just my phone that most people in LA have
the number because we give it out once a year.
It's sponsored by your southern California Toyota dealers.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
We make it easy.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
And a lot of people chimed in on this. Brady,
you'd be happy to know. And no one talks about
Levar's head, which is substantial. But most people chimed in
Brady and said that you're correct that they believe that
my head is bigger than your head.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Still, I feel that we both have two big of
heads for our bodies. Yeah, but you have a bigger
body than me.
Speaker 7 (31:26):
I feel like Brady's head is longer and you're here.
That's what I'm maybe more in diameter exact.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Okay, thank you, yes, yeah, if that's the case, then yeah, maybe.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
I've got Brady's got that strong you know, matine idol
jaw that I do not have my head much more
like a medicine ball on a bean bag.
Speaker 7 (31:46):
Like one of the batman's. Correct, he's got one of
the batman's. Yes, a batman jaw.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
By the ways, this we're on the topic. Who was
the best Batman?
Speaker 4 (32:00):
Oh, it's not even close. Keeting, Oh, Christian Bale?
Speaker 1 (32:04):
Did good?
Speaker 4 (32:05):
Say it again?
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Keaton y.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Eighty eight, dude eighty eight. Look, well, you don't know
why Batman got popular again?
Speaker 5 (32:15):
Do you like?
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Batman became popular again in the eighties because of a
guy named Frank Miller, who's a comic book writer happened
to be Greek even though the last name, and Miller
Miller is a really fabulous innovator in comics and graphic
novels and all that.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
He's the guy behind Sin City and all those.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
So Frank Miller way before that, did a comic called
The Dark Knight Returns and it was about like Batman
at sixty coming back and kicking everybody's ass in Gossam
Gotham City, and it was so popular as a graphic
novel that that brought back the kind of the Batman vibe?
Speaker 5 (32:55):
And what is it?
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Tim Burton, who's a great movie maker, went and made
those movities.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
But I thought Christian Bale was great, and I thought
the other dude, the recent guy Pattison, was pretty good.
But Val Kilmer miscast and the kloon dog when he
had his nipple outfit, when Batman had those big rotary
phone nipples, that was terrible.
Speaker 5 (33:15):
Who had the bigger nipples? Killmore Kilmer or U or Keaton? Did?
Speaker 4 (33:22):
Did Keaton have nips? Keaton had nips? This was.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
No, No, it was Clooney and Kilbo. That was Clooney
and kil that double met.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
I gotta, you know what, I gotta take a look.
I don't have time to I don't have time to
contrastic a bear right now.
Speaker 5 (33:38):
But that would be awesome to hear it though.
Speaker 4 (33:40):
But I but I think it's Keaton. But we can
discuss that.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
We talked about the circumstance of football. Would Tom Brady,
drafted by the Atlanta Falcons, be working at Enterprise rent
a car at twenty six years old? I say yes,
Brady says, you know, say that LeVar You're you're the
You're the tie breaker. Tom Brady drafted anywhere else? Enterprise
rent a car? We pick you up?
Speaker 1 (34:04):
What enterprise, because.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
That's who hires all the x athleas.
Speaker 5 (34:07):
I'm gonna go enterprise.
Speaker 4 (34:10):
Okay, we pick you up.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
Damn, that's your littermay too. Bro.
Speaker 5 (34:15):
I know, Bro, I know, but I just know.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
I mean it was Drew Brees.
Speaker 7 (34:22):
That was the guy back then. Man, it was like
Tom was good, but Tom wasn't He wasn't that good.
He was good though, he was really good, but he
turned into a different animal in the league. Man.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Ain't that's the truth?
Speaker 5 (34:36):
Yeah, we to a different animal.
Speaker 3 (34:38):
We talked about the confounding Caitlin Clark situation, yep, which, uh,
I don't know whichever way you slice it it.
Speaker 4 (34:45):
It might feel like the WNBA is blowing this completely.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Maybe it's all good publicity, like I heard Doug Gottlieb
talking about which is better than hearing Covino and Rich
talk about the mat But I mean that I would
listen to their promo again during the breaking What are
they talking about the Mats day? Anyway, it seems to
be a bad situation. For poor Caitlin Clark, and she
(35:15):
didn't do anything. She just goes and place and there's
all this conversation swirling around her. And what's annoying about
situations like this? And this happens in football. I remember
it happened with baseball and steroids. We had all those
guys being questioned in Congress, and you start getting people
that are not they're not sports people, they don't cover sports,
and then they start having like really hot opinions about
(35:38):
these crossover stories and man, it doesn't fit, does it?
Speaker 4 (35:42):
It doesn't work that well.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
But we're in that mode right now with Caitlin Clark.
I try to talk about it more with you guys,
but you wanted to avoid the controversy. Had some really hot.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Takes we can I'd love to hear the HoTT such
hot takes. Oh yeah, well, what's the hot take?
Speaker 4 (35:58):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (35:58):
I'm gonna put up a screen with all these rookies
and start talking about it, like waving my arms around,
gesticulating wildly.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Oh are you are you? Are you gonna shot at McAfee?
Speaker 5 (36:08):
Wow? Sort of like what he decided it is.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
I really don't have a hot take about it.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
We talked about the deep seated regionalism embedded in Brady
and LeVar, especially when it comes to Disney World versus
Disneyland and there's disrespect.
Speaker 5 (36:25):
It's just the truth.
Speaker 3 (36:26):
No, it ain't that, there's no All I said was
the two different crowds. I'm going full wokeme you guys,
it's your truth. That's not the truth.
Speaker 5 (36:37):
In your truth, No it is.
Speaker 4 (36:38):
Didn't I just see.
Speaker 6 (36:39):
Disney together to open up like a fifth park or
something in Florida.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
What does that have to do? We're standing Disneyland and Anaheim.
Speaker 1 (36:49):
But I don't know.
Speaker 7 (36:50):
Disney Land is like one little piece of Disney World.
I'm just telling you, man, it's not the same.
Speaker 4 (36:59):
Here it is again, here is the deep seated regionalism
that we face.
Speaker 7 (37:03):
Regionalism. It's just that disney Land is just an extension
of Disney World.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
How do you show your face a Charter Oak with
that take? I'm sorry, how do you show your face?
Speaker 5 (37:16):
