Speaker 3 (01:42):
It's time for the middle the midway.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
All right there, boys, I heard we were doing mean
Doug Gottlieb tweets.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Oh man, oh man. So I know you didn't spend
a whole lot of time yesterday on.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Your literally like I literally didn't look at any of
the replies because I just I'm just inundated.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Then, boy, are you in for a treat?

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
I have given two or three tweets to Dan, me
and Sam. I have a couple for you to read.
These are reaction tweets to like major news sources announcing
the news yesterday. So ESPN said Doug Ottley's been hired
at UW Green Bay, and then you start reading the

(02:30):
comments underneath it. I could start and I want to
give credit to these these the tweeters ex tweeters xers.
Here's a good one. Doug from at Dil's Dose d
y ls dose, He's gonna he's going to steal their

(02:52):
chance of being good.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Oh, I get it.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
Credit for the callback to the cards and steal their
chance of being good. You know, he does a good
play of words. Are Dyl's dose, Doug? Do you have one?

Speaker 1 (03:11):
I do? I do? That was really good Dill's does
at bad underscore AZZI that sounds like a faked a
random right, Like? Who put it? What's the over under
on Doug? That Doug is fired in a year? Over under?

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Bad grammar? First of all, Yeah, why are you asking
the over under? If you give away the year? It's
what's the over under on when he gets fired? Yeah?
That was self sabotage right there.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
What do you think? What is the overunder? Do we
have it?

Speaker 2 (03:49):
I still know that doesn't even make sense, right, Dan,
do you have one?

Speaker 4 (03:55):
I do? I do have a I do have it? Sweet?

Speaker 5 (03:57):
By the way, that one was from bad Ass, Right,
that's good.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
It was yeas.

Speaker 5 (04:04):
Sean mk e the Milwaukee abbreviation shaw mk E says
April Fools was last month.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Good one. That's a good one. That's a good one.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
What about use samdy Yewen, I do.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Okay?

Speaker 6 (04:26):
This is from at a Court twenty three, who says
Doug will be asking for a donation soon, please provide
the full card number, expiration date and security code.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Ah, that's good. That one that was actually not bad.
I kind of liked that one, to be honest with you.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
I'm seeing a theme here.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
You know.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
They seem to go to the same joke. I mean
it's it's been twenty five years, so it's very fresh,
definitely relevant. Yeah, he did as a young man with
a still developing brain. This this was the very inspiration
for this, uh this segment. Sam brought this to my attention,

(05:09):
and I don't think it gets better than this one
from Brothers Crispy from at Brothers Crispy Brother's Crispy Doug
Gottlieb putting the mid in mid majire.

Speaker 5 (05:21):
Ah.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
I kind of like that one too because the use
of the word mid, which which used to be a
very very cool word, but now you know what mid
is it's mid.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
Speaking of which, the Midway good one? Sam? How to
get that in there and contractually obgeting Dougie?

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Well you said, speaking of which, Sam, this from uh
at Did you see this one? At Spooky Underscore Kabuki?
Everyone is disappointed that they will still have to hear
him on the radio.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
Hell, all right, Huckle Schmidt?

Speaker 1 (06:07):
Did we do?

Speaker 4 (06:08):
Huckle Schmidt?

Speaker 5 (06:09):
I hope the players get a locker to secure their
wallets and laptops.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
What's the laptop think? Why do people think that laptops
is me? That's that's Cam Newton And what was the
point guard at Yukon called the laptop for.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
God, god sham?

Speaker 5 (06:25):
All I think of, No, all I think of now
is is Sebastian Maniscalco's tsa impressed instination.

Speaker 4 (06:35):
You guys, remember that I.

Speaker 5 (06:36):
Don't know laptops, Like whatever I hear laptops, That's all
I think of.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
It's definitely a thing like people did conflate laptops with
the credit cards. Laptops is a big way to get
back at Doug in the last couple of days.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
It's so weird, Like I need a laptop too. By
the way, I always work on the iPad, But you
need a laptop. I need a laptop. Uh yeah, not
a laptop guy, I mean like like that's what happens
when the offense was like thirty years ago, right, twenty
eight years ago?

Speaker 2 (07:07):
But anyway, Sam, you got one.

Speaker 6 (07:09):
Yes, I don't believe we've done this one. This is
from at Working Stiff. Have we done the Working Stiff
one yet?

Speaker 2 (07:15):
No?

Speaker 4 (07:17):
Okay?

Speaker 6 (07:17):
Here and Working Stiff says if anyone can help a
mid major steal attorney bid, And you know, Doug, I'm
rooting for you, Doug, I'm rooting for you to steal
attorney bid.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Were you gonna say, Jay Stem?

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Lots of stealing, lots of steel and steels in these
mean tweets. This is a good one from Nuanced Take two,
Nuanced Tank two, and he proves pretty quick that he's
not very nuanced. The Green Bay What's is this a
high school?

Speaker 1 (07:58):
I think that was a talk about my school.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
This guy just showing he's not a back college basketball fan.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
Oh, you gotta know, you got to know these people
are right. You gotta know these teams.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Are didn't didn't Bruce Pearl coach at w Green Bay?

Speaker 1 (08:13):
No, he coached you Milwaukee sorry, Dick Bennett coached here.

Speaker 4 (08:18):
When they stay in here, Iowa Lane Sam.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
Okay, yeah, I tried to get to know my brother's
up north.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
Dan.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
You got another one, Doug Scott, you got one right there,
but I do.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
But it's it's the same one as just a different person.
At shaw MK April Fools was last month.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
Oh no, no, you got to refresh your doc.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Oh, I gotta refresh my doc. Sorry, I didn't refresh
my doc today. At Robert Arnold M three fire. The
company that did the background check, that would be Dan Parker.
Dan Parker, the background check, Dan Parker.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
I think that's it. I think those were the.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
Those weren't that means? Those weren't that mean? I mean there,
you know there's a redundancy to the to the credit
card thing and to other things. But those weren't that mean?
Were they?

Speaker 2 (09:13):
Brothers? Crispy was amazing. Putt in the mid in mid
Maybe that should be your thing, because I think yesterday
you said that your mantra was going to be you
could find me in the gym. Maybe it's put.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
We put the mid in mid major. We put the
mid in mid major.

Speaker 5 (09:35):
Okay, you know that I was just going to say,
you know, there are some Milwaukee Panther fans that you know,
watch the whole thing and because that's your rival and
we're sitting there picking it apart. So they are wasting
no time for this rivalry too, to continue along the

(09:56):
shores of Lake Michigan.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
I mean, what's do you some commentary that you want to.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Share just stood down?

Speaker 5 (10:03):
Well, no, there's just there was there was a guy
who just basically live tweeted the entire press conference. Really, yes,
Jimmy Lempke, Jimmy Lemke, anybody he has the Black and
Gold Club. So I just ended up doing a whole
live tweet. And the reason is because when you search
Doug Gottlieb, as we were looking for these tweets, the

(10:26):
guy's face just kept on showing up. So yeah, so
the rivalry is is that cooling anywhere?

Speaker 1 (10:34):
That's cool? I mean, you forget about the fact that
I admitted that I wore forty four at least in
some small part because of a guy named Kirk Kaji
who played for my dad at you but you and
Milwaukee forget about of that though. But like, look it's on, Well,
we're gonna have like hate week can we should we
do like Hate week when we play Milwaukee? Yes? Absolutely, Okay,

(10:55):
I'm kind of bummed I get out here and the
Bucks aren't playing though. Man, I feel like I can
get some good Bucks seats now, I really do, and
I get buyer some good Buck seats and he would
like that.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Just don't ask a Rod for those tickets.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
What's the story with a Rod and the and the Timberwolves?
Are they ever going to own the tipples? Huh?

Speaker 2 (11:14):
The whole thing sounded pretty shady, right, didn't think current
owner pulled the uh.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Yeah, pull the bed yeah, which I actually don't mind.
I mean, it's just a really good lesson for people
to learn that they think a deal is done like
it ain't done until it's last and final, last and final,
it's done. And that's the Midway the Midway buyer. I'm interested,

(11:38):
Like I I look at this Caitlin Clark thing, and
she didn't play well last night. She had ten termers
they could beat. She's four of eleven from three and
and remember, like the Fever wouldn't have had the number
one pick unless they were crummy, right, I mean they
were not good last year. So but I do wonder
how long a runway we give her? I mean, it's

(11:58):
it's it's one games, so I'm not freaking out at all,
But how long a runway do we give her? And
then the other part too, It is it is really
interesting how that season kicks off already. They just got
done playing in early April, and now she's playing basketball,
and what does it look like when she goes into
her second year.

Speaker 5 (12:17):
I actually think that the wrong way is pretty long,
and I actually use Zion Williamson as the example for
it of I think that we've gotten to the point
with Zion where we aren't sure where his career was going.
And then right when we thought that even this year,
that it was back to going where we had hoped
it was, he ends up getting hurt and is unavailable.

(12:39):
But even for that brief instant, we were back on
the Zion train. And I don't think it's much different
than the hype machine that was of Caitlyn Clark. And
so I think that is going to be the case
where yeah, they may not have a great season this year,
which is a little surprising to me, honestly because I'm
not a full WNBA fan, don't know about it, so not.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Only doesn't play in the WB, but they have a Leah.

Speaker 5 (13:07):
Boston as well, So you have two number one overall
picks from the final or the previous two drafts, and
I would think that that would be a really good
place to start for a core. So it's like, well,
how many other good players do you have to have?
I mean, if you're the number one overall pick and
you have two of them on your team, I would
expect something. So maybe maybe their depth isn't there or

(13:29):
what they have. But I just think that if she
ends up doing anything unique, when she gets adjusted, we
will be back on track and locked in and excited
to watch her play. She's just she's just got that
it factor, and just like Zion had as well, I think.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Here's what's going to benefact benefit her. I think now
that we move towards that could be wrong because they're
such a popularity thing with her, but I do think
we'll get back to watching her in highlights, and her
in highlights is better at times her in real life.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
But the league, to hit on what Dan just said,
you get this feeling that there's a ton of people
that want this to work and that we're rooting for it.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
To work.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
And that was my takeaway last night watching the game,
and follow me on this. The league needs this to work.
Not only does it need to work and needs to succeed.
She needs to transcend. The league needs that. And that's
juxtaposed against this polar opposing factor where other veterans in

(14:30):
the league want to shut her down, they want to
put it in her place. There's there's a built in,
almost like resentment that she's the one that's taking the
game the next level. So you have these opposing factors
where veterans like the women last night were all over
her and that's going to probably be every night. But
that works against the agenda of the league where Kaitlyn

(14:51):
Clark needs to be the next best thing.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
It's interesting because, of course, Michael Jordan went through some
of that right famously. Isaiah Thomas throws him out at
the All Star Game, right we did. We did see
that Michael Jordan for a long time wasn't a winner
until he was. So that is a bit of a
rite of passage for anybody who's a young, burgeoning star.
I think the issue becomes that those games are harder
and harder to watch. They just are, and you know,

(15:17):
I do think that we One of the reasons we
fell in love with Caitlyn Clark was what was first
the highlights because she was shooting from so far out.
She felt like Steph Curry. She had a creative passngen.
Then you watch like, man, that's it's not really efficient
and everybody is gunning for and then when you watch

(15:38):
in you know, in the entire game, you see a
lot more mishots, you see a lot more mislayups, and
then you juxtaposed it with the NBA. I just found
it found it harder to watch and.

Speaker 6 (15:47):
Doug her uh her performance at IOWA, like they were
the top scoring team in the country, like I think
like the last two years she was there. So you
go from a team that's a number one seed scored,
you know, breaks a hundred points like, you know, eight
times in the season, and then she goes to a
team there it's bad and putting up like what seventy points.
It takes some of the what is it the luster

(16:10):
off of her.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
No question, I don't think there's any question there's some
luster ofugh for But you know, to Dan's point, I
do think there's a long runway. I do think everybody's
in love with her and you know, barring some sort
of collapse, but there is the anti Caitlin bias that
exists among WNBA players. I don't think that's new at all.
Bird went through that, Jordan went through that, Caitlyn Clark

(16:34):
can go through that.

Speaker 1 (16:48):
That's the Gottlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio. So did you
guys read this quote? Tom Brady says, I liked it
when the jokes were about me. I thought they were
so fun. I didn't like the way the affected my kids.
Brady admitted on the podcast. It's the hardest part about it,
like the bittersweet aspect of when you do something that
you think is one way and when all of a

(17:09):
sudden you realize I wouldn't do that again because the
way it affected the people that I care about most
in the world, and it is now. Jay stew was
the quote from him actually attributed to him from last
week where he said, you know what was there not
to like? They cracked jokes about my wife? Having, you know,

(17:29):
relations with the jiu jitsu instructor something like that. Like
was that really a quote or was that a fact?
You can ever tell now with social media, it's a
fake quote.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
I don't Yeah, and that doesn't sound right. I don't
think he said that. I think these were his first
comments since if I'm not mistaken, maybe down knows differently,
But like, I just think that, like, really, you signed
up for this and you didn't consider how it would
impact your kids, Like this seems a little out of
touch for a smart guy. This seems like something that
it just now hit him that that's weird.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yeah, I'm gonna I actually understand a little bit, you know,
I actually understand Brady's deal in that I'm sure he
knew that he would take a brunt of the abuse
and that everybody in the dais you thought there'd be
something about maybe one thing about his ex. But I'm

(18:24):
not sure that people understand how viral that thing went.
I don't know. Daniel Jeremiah joins us here, NFL analyst
co host of The Move the six podcast. Did you
did you watch the Brady roast?

Speaker 3 (18:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (18:35):
It's not really my cup of tea. The U I
saw some of the clips, you know, some of the
stuff like the Gronks, you know, stuff where they were
making fun of him, even he knew about crypto or whatever.
That was probably the only thing that came across my
way that I thought was kind of funny. I'm just
I don't know. Divorce is not. It's just not funny

(18:55):
to me. So in seeing kids involved in a lot
of stuff. So I know, people val you're over, but
like that's it's not mine, that's not for me.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
No, no, no, I I agree with you. I understand that.
That's where I could actually understand where he's coming from.
Where he's like, yeah, I thought, you know, there's so
many different things to make fun of. I didn't know,
but you know, you know that that's one of those
deals where all you had to say was i'll do it.
We're just not going to do any divorce jokes.

Speaker 7 (19:20):
Yeah, you know. Yeah, Which I think that's the whole
point of that whole uh, the whole thing there is
that like you don't get to tell them what is
and what isn't uh off limits, like that if you
tell them it's off limits, you're probably more likely to
get that joke because that's just that's what those are.
The thing that was just I don't know. Again, maybe
I'm reading that too much into this, but what bothered

(19:40):
me even probably more than the you know, the jokes
that impact the kids, was the the fact that he
was so offended by the craft thing more so than
about the family falling apart. Like that's kind of weird
to me, but.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
Uh yeah, yeah, I can. I can understand that. I
think he thought his kids wouldn't see it. That's my guess.
I thought he thought his kids wouldn't see it, And
what's happened now is it's impossible not to see stuff
that's really kind of the reality. The reality.

Speaker 7 (20:12):
I'm looking forward to seeing them call games, though I
will say that I'm curious to see.

Speaker 4 (20:16):
How that goes.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
I'm sad, I am too Jared Goff's contract. What's your reaction.

Speaker 7 (20:23):
Fair? You know, I think he's you know, that was
a place where it had been very difficult to win,
and it's made a lot of right moves in terms
of the draft and five to the right coach and
general manager. But I also think that the quarterback is
a huge, huge piece of that. So to see him
get rewarded for it, and he's still young. I mean,
I think he's been around for so long people to
get it. I think when he entered the league, you

(20:44):
just turned twenty one, So he was a real young
guy coming into that draft. So still plenty of plenty
of footballhead of him. I think there's still room for
him to improve, and I think he's got time to
do that. So yeah, I thought where the numbers are
right now was about where they belong.

Speaker 1 (21:01):
Okay, so what does it mean for Jordan Love.

Speaker 7 (21:04):
I don't think I remember he's just saying that that
Jordan Loves contract is gonna thrug that one? I don't.
I'm not so sure about that. I think Goss accomplished
a lot more obviously than this Jordan Love in this
one year. That's encouraging, But I'm, you know, with the
Daniel Jones thing a little bit. I like Jordan Love
a lot, and I believe in his talent, but I
still want to see a little bit more there before

(21:25):
you jump into that deep end.

Speaker 1 (21:28):
Yeah no, I would too, you know. And if you're
Jordan Love and you're sitting there going, Okay, I'm gonna
make eight this this upcoming year, and I got I
got a year after that. The longer you go and
the better you perform, there could be a huge financial
on the other hand of you, the packers. Do you say, like, Okay,
if we wait on this thing, it could be fifty

(21:48):
a year, whereas right now maybe we can get in
the thirties.

Speaker 7 (21:52):
Yeah, well yeah, I mean that's that's the dance that
you do right there. My thing is, once you're you're
at eight million and thirty million is a big jump.
I would sit there and go, Man, I believe in myself.
Everybody I have around me is young, like we should
only get better. I'm not going to sign one for that.
I'm gonna wait untill I can get up, you know,
closer toward the fifty number. If you have another really

(22:12):
good year and then you're in a totally different stratgy.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
Here Stug Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. That's
the voice of Daniel Jeremiah. DJ of course, was the
lead draft analyst for the NFL Draft on the NFL
Network and he's also the voice of the La Chargers.
As you know, look, we're we're in this period now

(22:35):
where guys are showing up and and Kirk Cousins he finally,
you know, spoke out on the Michael Pennock's draft spot
and you know he basically took the took the semi
high road. We're all good here or whatever. But what
do people around the league saying about that pick?

Speaker 7 (22:54):
It was a surprise, man. I you know, look the
people I talked to say, I'm okay with you and
cousins that money, I'm okay with drafted Michael PENNOCKX. It
just I don't I'm not really okay with doing both.
You know, that's where the that's where the issue comes in.
So I know there's been something on uh you know,
media personalities and analysts that have come out here and

(23:14):
defend it, the importance of the quarterback position and why
not double down. But that's not the sentiment I get
in the reaction I get and talking to people all
over the league. So you know, we'll see, we'll see
how it knows one way or the other you're going
to be. You know, it's like, I feel like this
is what it's like when you have a training camp
practice as a head coach, where it's like everything's cut

(23:35):
down the middle. You get your offense has a great day,
yeat but well your defense was terrible. Well, your defense
picked off three balls. You have my quarterback to you
three interceptions. Like, however this worked out four Cousins or
four Pennis. It's gonna be kind of a big sweet scenario.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
It can make. Well, you drafted a backup one of
the news. Give me a backup for.

Speaker 7 (23:53):
A team that's right there right now. You know that's
you know, it's right in front of it. I think
and Cousins will never He'll always say the right thing.
You know, He's just a pros pro. But I guarantee
you gave him some truth here him. He's like, why
give me somebody to help me and that first pick
and we can go win this division for the next
two or three years.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
What what What do you think of the NFL and
the Saturday night games? Does that affect the rhythm of
the season at all? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (24:18):
I mean again, I think I'm maybe I'm just getting old, Doug,
but I I kind of I like when you just
kind of have designated days. I was, okay, kind of
the Thursday thing. I get it, I understand it, But Sunday, Monday,
Thursday seems about rights to me and start throwing it
out you know, we got Friday game to kick off
the season. This year, we got Saturday games later in

(24:39):
the year. I don't know, you know, the NBA used
to own Christmas, and we we own the Thanksgiving holiday,
and l NFL taking that over as well. I don't know,
it's so big. Maybe there's no such thing as over saturization.
But I kind of like, you know that the routine
of having that, that's just someone who's on this side
of it as a player. I gotta I gotta believe

(24:59):
they prefer having, you know, a little bit more of
a set schedule.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
Well, it's clearly a shot across the ballot college football
and Saturday night college football. The primetime game had been
a huge game. And I guess the question is, like
I maybe, I guess in the South, where college football
is big enough, you know that you don't play on
a Sunday, But is there anything college football can do
to push back college FOTBA obviously is taken up. Some

(25:23):
of the high school stuff would play on Friday night,
and I just wonder how this affects the college football games.

Speaker 7 (25:28):
Yeah, I don't think anybody wants to go against the NFL,
you know, so you can say, we can try and
fight back, but the NFL literally owns that day of
the week on Sunday. So I mean you have to
have a you have to have a matchup to even
cause it mask. So I think here's all these other sports.
You just try and play as nice as you can
with the sl and hopefully they throw your bone.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah, it's a it's a crazy deal, Odell, it's not
a big money deal. It's it's not it's like three
that could take you to eight. Does that make sense
for Miami?

Speaker 7 (26:02):
Yeah, I think it's fine. You know, he doesn't have
to be the guy that I think when you kind
of know who you are and and uh have a
realistic view of things, I think that's good for all
parties involved. And I think he, you know, he can
look at who's there in that building at that position
and know what is expected of him. And I think
you you know, you start stacking him up with you know,

(26:23):
ones and twos around the league, and you go, Okay,
not anything like what he used to be. But now
you start stacking him up with threes and you're like, yeah,
he shoot even with the injuries and coming back and
maybe if he's lost a little bit here or there.
That's still a really good three.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
Okay, what about their quarterback situation in his contract? What
do you do with Tua?

Speaker 4 (26:44):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (26:44):
I think they're gonna I think they're gonna end up,
you know, getting it done here. My My guess is,
you know you you probably want those guarantees to be
two years maybe three years, which should be a little
bit short of of what t was probably looking for there,
But that would be you know, just for me more
so injury concerns versus performance concerns. I think how they've

(27:08):
built the roster fits him. I think he can play well.
That's not as much of a concern with me as
much as the durability would be. So I'd be okay
with the numbers being big, but I would prefer to
keep that guarantee in the two to three year range.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
Yeah, can you do it? Like? Does his Does his
agent let that happen?

Speaker 7 (27:27):
Yeah, most of them are going to balk at it,
but maybe if the number is high enough. You know,
I'd be okay with the higher number, just a matter
of if you can sell him on that. Hey, you know,
you got to keep you healthy and then the next
one you'll still be really young. By the time we
get through three years, we redo this thing and you
can you can really cash it in. But I think
this is a way where we take care of you
in the short term and we protect ourselves in the

(27:47):
long term.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
Obviously, Dan and Jeremia also has the Move the Sticks podcast.
You guys are both really tied in with everything going
on in the NFL. Who's the team that people are
talking about, like, mm this team has has changed itself
the most in the offseason.

Speaker 7 (28:05):
Well, I mean, I don't think it's a mystery. I
think the Bears, yeah, you know, with what they've done
offensively this off season, but even you know, ended up
being a you know, for as bad as the Claypool
trade was, the Montez Sweat trade was on the other
side of it. I mean, that was a home run
the way he turned that defense around last year. We've
got a really good secondary, that's a good good linebackers.

(28:29):
So that's a team. I think that when you look
up and just kind of start going through the post
draft rosters and you look at the talent, that's a
that's a really really talented team. It's a it's a
great it's a really really great division. Right now, what's
the you know teams we've already talked about. When you
think about Green Bay and you know, Minnesota still has
all those guys coming back in Detroit, you know, really

(28:50):
on the on the come up and make a noise
in the postseason. So they they've got their work cut
out for him in the division. But that is a
really really talented team.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yeah, very talented team and a really good division. And
we'll see what Minnesota is able to do when they
is Sam Donald the guy or do they hand that
quarterbacks this stop? It's going to be dog.

Speaker 7 (29:09):
There's one other team you said, now that I'm thinking of,
there's one other team that everybody's buzzing about, and that's
Wisconsin Green Bay. So that is one that's got a
lot of buzz, a lot of buzz, a lot of excitement.
And I'm proud of my guy. Man. Congratulations, thank you,
thank you.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
Tell me about you?

Speaker 7 (29:25):
What do you think, dude? I'm stoked. I'm stoked. But
here's my thing when it comes to college sports, I
want somebody with two things. I want somebody with knowledge
and then I want somebody with passion. And you know,
we've known each other for a long time, Doug, and
those would be two of the first words I would
use to subscribe you.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
So I'm hop I appreciate.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
Well.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
Listen, come, did we don't play the Chargers? The Chackers
don't play the Chargers? Do they?

Speaker 7 (29:52):
Uh not this year? I don't believe.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
No, We'll find an excuse to get in town and
come hang out and uh, anytell what you think in persons?
Pretty it's pretty cool. I mean, it's really an amazing place,
and like the just the experience of it. I mean this,
I mean this to any assistant coach who's never been
a head coach in college, like I wish this for you.

(30:15):
It's really a it's mind blowing. And and then you know,
look I kind of lucked into it and that we're
not in a dead period in college sports, but we're
kind of in a dead period, Like there's no other
jobs that are really open, so it becomes a bigger
story than maybe it really is. And uh, just the
amount of support and it's it's crazy.

Speaker 7 (30:35):
I mean, answer me one question, Uh huh, what are
what is our what is our game day sideline apparel?

Speaker 1 (30:42):
What have you thought about that what you depends on
a game depends on the game. I mean, you know, look,
I I love that we've gone casual. We're in Adidas school.
So you know, my big challenge is going to be
do I wear hoop sneakers like the Hardens or the
or the the ant Man's or do I go with
the kind of the old school Adidas kicks. Like that's

(31:04):
that's the challenge, right, I'm probably most most times, I'll
probably most go halfzip. You know, they get these cool
white half SIPs and you know, some gray pants. But
there's definitely some games that are suit games. You know,
those are games where you throw in the good watch
throwing suit. And then I think they'll be kind of
a mixed. I want to do jeans and a sport
coat and and sneaks on the sideline, maybe a T shirt,

(31:27):
like why not? Like you know, the whole thing is
to be kind of comfortable, but also you're the head coach,
you got to stick out a little bit. So that's
that's the deal. But I think the days like, I'm
not a necessarily a three p suit guy, but there
will be some some suit games. My thing is like
here's what I want, here's what I want to do,
and you tell me this is crazy, Like I kind
of want to go play. Like, look, early early on,

(31:50):
I got the I got the job here in May.
There's not gonna be huge expectations. Plus, you know we're
Green Bay. We're not expected to go take down the Titans. Like,
I kind of want to go play some cool places
and go some I mean, one, I want to play
somewhere warm, but two, you know, I want to go
play here, play there. Like I don't know if I
want to play Duke next year, but I'm friends with
John Shire and so I said, hey, you need a game.

(32:12):
You know, I don't really know if I want that,
but I kind of want that. That'd be cool to do.

Speaker 7 (32:16):
I would. I mean, look, you're talking to somebody. You
were other name Oklahoma State. I went to Northeast Louisiana
Appalachia State. So part of the recruiting pitch to me
as a quarterback in San Diego to go to a
school i'd never heard of a Northeast Louisiana was hey,
we're going to play four sec teams. And I was like, frick,
I would go play in front of eighty thousand people.
Sign me up for that. That sounds great. I didn't
really lots of time. How I was going to get

(32:36):
the crap kicked out, I mean, what that would feel like.
But it was definitely a factor in recruiting.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Well I did. I did speak with my friends at
Oklahoma State, and I did say, you guys want to play,
tell us when we'll be there. But yeah, I just
don't know if I want to do the Kansas thing
because they're going to be monsters. Well, we want to
do the Duke thing because they're going to be incredible.
But outside of that, yeah, like, let's go, let's go
play some people, have some fun and I'll run some

(33:03):
game schedules by by you and you tell which you think.

Speaker 7 (33:05):
Yeah, dude, I'm gonna be living through you, buddy. So
I'm proud of you and I'm super excited to follow
this journey.

Speaker 4 (33:11):
Way to go, man.

Speaker 1 (33:12):

It's the Doug Gottlieb Show. It's Fox Sports Radio. Hope
you're having a great day. I can only tell you this. Boys,
obviously there are gonna be days in which I will
not say this. But Sam, are you familiar with the
term Chamber of commerce day? Yes, today is a chamber
of commerce day here in beautiful Green Bay, Wisconsin. Man,

(33:55):
is it absolutely gorgeous? I got a butterfly outside my window.
Let's get to the press, the press. All right, Dan Barr, what.

Speaker 4 (34:10):
You got dog? Do you want to say one thing
to you?

Speaker 5 (34:13):
I didn't notice at the end of your pressor today
you kind of veered a little off of the what
we talked about on the show yesterday. But it seems
like the tagline was c a in the gym?

Speaker 4 (34:25):
Was that the is that gonna be? We're gonna get
more of that?

Speaker 1 (34:29):
I didn't. I didn't do the whole tagline thing. I
thought it was too cheesy, so I did I'll see
in the gym. If you need me, I'll be in
the gym. Yes, I think we that was a little disappointed.
Came up. What do you think about the arena downtown
being called the tundred? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (34:46):
I heard that one too. I am with your ad
and uh that doesn't work.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
Okay, okay, well we'll work through it. Like listen, this
is a I'm okay when negative feedback. That one stunk.
Let's move on.

Speaker 5 (34:57):
Oh all right, let's get to the NFL schedules, shall we.
It will be released tonight. Netflix will be streaming exclusively
two games on Christmas Day. It's a Wednesday, December twenty fifth,
So yeah, two NFL games on a Wednesday. And now
with all the matchups, Chiefs at the Steelers, Ravens at
the Texans.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
Ravens sections is good. Chief Steelers is really good. Wow,
they put good games on on Netflix. You get them better.
Make sure you got your code. You know, you're not
like you're not. What's it called when you're using somebody
else's Netflix thing? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (35:31):
Account sharing?

Speaker 1 (35:33):
Yeah, there's no Yeah, I can.

Speaker 5 (35:35):
I'd say three of them. The reason the Steelers get
so much hype is because they're fan base. I don't
think that they're actually fun to watch the Steelers.

Speaker 1 (35:44):
Yeah, no, they're terrible. To what, Yes, they're terrible. It'll
be fun to watch what I think is going to
be a disaster with us Russell Wilson. That'll be fun
to watch.

Speaker 5 (35:52):
See how that all plays out. The three London games
are set. We're giving uh, we're giving them Jets, Vikings, Patriots, Jaguars,
and Jaguars Bears. So Caleb Williams playing overseas. We knew
that the Bears in Vikings and Jaguars would be playing overseas,

(36:12):
just didn't know their opponents. And then the NFL says,
you know what, Germany, you got Panthers, Panthers, Giants. So
it's kind of like they cast the last year.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
Yeah, you know, well yeah, like look, we always throw
the games over there. I actually don't mind those because
I mean, imagine if you were a Giants fan, you're like, oh,
the Panthers, right, because you're taking away a home game
from one of these teams. At least take away a
crummy home team home game with these teams.

Speaker 5 (36:39):
And Germany last year got Dolphins Chiefs. Remember that it
was a pretty good game, pretty interesting contest. The New
York Post says that the Giants will actually be in
Dallas on Thanksgiving, and Doug, you may be at a tournament.
You're Green Bay Phoenix. But the Athletics says the Packers
will host the Dolphins on Thanksgiving Night, but that's been
unconfirmed by the National Football League.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
Wait, wait, who's going to host the Dolphins the Packers
on Thanksgiving Night?

Speaker 4 (37:07):
That is the report.

Speaker 1 (37:09):
M Tasty tasty.

Speaker 4 (37:13):
You maybe had a tournament somewhere and like, ah, I
can tell you.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
I don't think we're well, I'm going to check my schedule,
but we're still making our schedule. Here.

Speaker 5 (37:22):
Two other media things to quick get in here. Netflix
documentary on Jerry Jones is going to be produced. It's
going to be ten episodes. And Happy Gilmore two will
be made on Netflix with Adam Sandler starring again. Wow,
And that's the press.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
Bay get out there and pressed. That was the press.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
Another thanks to Don Martin Scott Shapiro for all they've
been able to do for me is the Doug Gottlieb
Show here on Fox Sports Radio Live from Green Bay. Yeah,
