Three of the best to ever do it on and
off the field. Live from the tire rack dot Com studio.
So Fox Sports Radio, here's pro bowlers LaVar airy tet TJ,
Hushman Zanna and Silver Bowl champion Plaxico Burres.

Speaker 5 (00:46):
All right, all right, welcome in. It is our two
of this wonderful program.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
Listen.

Speaker 5 (00:54):
We got a few things to get to, but first
you should know we are broadcasting Lave. I'm the tire
rack dot Com Studios. Tire rack dot Com will help
you get there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping, pre
road hazard protection and over ten thousand recommended installers. Tire
rack dot Com the way tire buying should be. All Right,

(01:15):
I want to jump right into this. I don't want to.
I don't want to waste any time on it because
you know, I want to hear what y'all gotta say.
You know, the the Heisman, the Heisman Trophy will be
awarded soon tonight, and one of the guys that may
win and may could be expected to win the award

(01:36):
is Travis Hunter. Now, while I'm not one to get
into people's private.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Business, it's just not mine.

Speaker 5 (01:46):
Listen, it's not my style to get into young cats
or any cats private business at that. But we do
a radio show, there are topics that come about, and
it's just interesting to get perspective on what you.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Think about it.

Speaker 5 (02:02):
Now, Dion Sanders was a teammate of mine, like I
had time to spend with him, and you know, I
think everybody knows he's a well documented personality and when
you look at what he's you know, had to overcome
and get through or deal with however you want to
label it, depending on I guess where you fall on

(02:25):
the whole you know, relationships deal. I mean, Dion had
had an interesting, you know, I guess battle with with
Shador and Shiloh's mom and Pular Sanders, and they ended
up you know, they ended up going their separate ways,
but there was a fight and in court, you know,
and it was seemingly it sounded like coming from Prime

(02:48):
that it was about the money. You know, it must
be the money. So it wasn't just Prime that was
just about the money. You know, his his watch soon
to be ex wife was about to be you know,
she was about the money as well. Travis Hunter has
come out and he has made it abundantly clear that
he wants to be with the girlfriend that he has
right now, that he's had since I believe high school

(03:11):
and and and that, you know, whatever it's going to
be is what's going to be. And the social media
webs has gone crazy about should he get a pre
nupp or not if he decides to marry the young
lady in twenty twenty five. So, just seeing all of
the conversations surrounding it, I don't really want to make

(03:32):
it about Travis Hunter. I just want to make it
about athletes in general.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
It about LeVar h in this situation.

Speaker 5 (03:42):
In this situation, let's just say a high profile athlete,
all right, okay, but let's just say let's use Travis Hunter.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
I mean, get it. I mean that's what we're talking about.

Speaker 5 (03:55):
Okay, So what made it, what made it I think
controversial is on one of their TikTok videos, she said,
you know, he said he reached out by social he
wasn't her type, so she didn't respond to it, like
you're not my type. Some way, somehow he eventually gets
in or whatever and they end up together. They've been

(04:16):
together ever since he.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
Became her type. I wonder why he became her type?
All right, talk about it? I mean, is that it?
Is it unrealistic to thing?

Speaker 3 (04:29):
Is it?

Speaker 1 (04:30):
Listen?

Speaker 5 (04:31):
I'll say personally, I don't know that I was Trisha's
tight when when I met her. You know, I don't
know that I was her tight. I'm certainly not the
prettiest dude in the world. I mean, I got a
little gifted gap, you know what I mean. I don't
stand on what y'all can stand on. I can't walk
up and and and you know, you know, make that
little look or whatever and and it be it be

(04:52):
good to go. I got I gotta have some rap
with what I got going on. I'm just saying I'm
I'm not a posed to a situation where you out
kick your coverage with somebody that you wasn't there type.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
I don't find out to be crazy.

Speaker 5 (05:08):
I don't find it crazy just just because she said
he's not my type.

Speaker 6 (05:13):
Listen, man, let's just call it what it is, bro,
Travis Hunter is a hell of an athlete. God blessed
him tremendously with physical talent to be a hell of
an athlete. But he ain't the best looking man on
this earth. We know that he's struggling in the looks department.
We're gonna keep it a bucket.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
I'm I'm just.

Speaker 5 (05:37):
I don't think us you know.

Speaker 7 (05:43):
So are you taking it back to the quote from
the water Boy, I'm.

Speaker 6 (05:52):
Not what you call absolutely absolutely, but I have a hey,
he seems like he has a great personality.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
You know when you start that first, what's your best
that I have a great relate I relate to that.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
So let me say this, y'all don't had that type
of problem. Y'all don't have to deal with the issues
that me and Travis Hunter dealt with.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
I don't want to hear about it.

Speaker 6 (06:19):
Do not put yourself in and do not do not
do it, bro, Do not do it now. Listen. Number one.
Number one, if she really love that dude. She would
be saying, yes, you can get a get a prenup

(06:41):
because I have no doubt in my mind that this
is gonna work. And I'm a man with three daughters,
so this may come up in the future. And if this,
this is the only part, this is the only hesitation
I may have.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Is she got with Travis Hunter.

Speaker 6 (07:02):
From my understanding, because I've been looking it up during
the break when they were in high school. Yes, and
so that for me, I don't care who you are.
It was the best player in the world. Though, how
many guys that were the best players in high school
never made it well.

Speaker 5 (07:17):
And decided to go to Jackson State too, and I
could have went horribly wrong.

Speaker 6 (07:22):
So that to me, it makes me hesitated a little
bit because they were together in high school. It's not
as if they got together in college or when he
was in the league already making this money.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
They were together, yeah, I mean, I mean they didn't
build it together. His talent got it, but she got it.
But hey, I mean she got.

Speaker 5 (07:45):
When I see, we've seen some dudes fall by the
wayside because they was getting girls that wasn't there.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
You didn't fall.

Speaker 5 (07:52):
Into the right right Okay, it should have been keeping him,
you know, his mindset.

Speaker 6 (07:58):
Is the would be my hesitation. But again, like I
said during the break, I did a little research. What
I didn't like was, oh, he cannot talk to a
girl in the room, or you dictating who he talks to.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
You dictate what he's going to do and who he's
going to be around, Like.

Speaker 5 (08:17):
That's he knows how she knows how they out here.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Well, listen.

Speaker 6 (08:26):
Here, it ain't about them. It's about me. They always
going to be there, but it's about me, my character,
who I am, And if you trust that, you ain't
got to worry about anything. And so if you're trying
to put these restrictions on me.

Speaker 5 (08:41):
Now she's worrying about the wrong things.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
You're worried about the wrong things.

Speaker 6 (08:44):
Because over time, I don't know, they the finest woman
and the finest man, the best looking woman and the
best looking man.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
In the world.

Speaker 6 (08:53):
There somebody tired of them, and you're going to get
tired of each other at some pointj you fall back
on what y'all have. And so I'm torn on this
because again they got together prior to him reaching this startom.
But if he feels he don't need it. Hey, but

(09:15):
you said you hit the hammer. You hit the down
with the hammer.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
LeVar.

Speaker 6 (09:19):
You gotta coach that have been through this, give you the.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
Well.

Speaker 6 (09:26):
He told him to get a pre and it's Jackson
State because he knows when y'all start breaking up all this.
Oh we love each other, man, please, They trying to
take everything that you work on.

Speaker 7 (09:39):
Man, this young man, I ain't even started living yet.
M Man, he's still in Collge.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
So what that means? So what that means?

Speaker 5 (09:46):
Stretched, man? What's your advice? Say what you feel, man,
don't look. Don't be measureding this. Say what you feel, man.

Speaker 7 (09:55):
I mean, you know I'm from the hit Well he's
known of yes since high school. So they're very fond
of each other. And they get into the little argument
on the sideline, whatever the case may be.

Speaker 5 (10:07):
But your kids, you barely know what your name is, man.
You barely know how to go to the restrooms exactly
your kids.

Speaker 7 (10:14):
When I went to college, man, and obviously you know,
to the next level. It's a different level of women,
I would say.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
So to speak, it's different.

Speaker 7 (10:27):
There's a different level, y'all know I'm telling the truth.

Speaker 1 (10:31):
Hey, cute it is a different level. I'm telling the truth,
different man. I mean, I wouldn't be in a rush
personally too.

Speaker 5 (10:42):
Until I until I grow up a little bit. I
experienced a little bit of exactly I'm going.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
To be able to.

Speaker 5 (10:48):
I mean, but what is it if you have a
strong one bird in the hand and you you're going
into the league, and you're like, I'm going into the
league bushes, you know what I mean?

Speaker 7 (10:59):
Like, I mean, it's there's something to be saying. Say,
a strong bird in hand, we're talking about a double.
We're talking about a wooden duck. You know, you squeeze one.

Speaker 6 (11:14):
It's a whole different it is. It's a different game, boy,
when you get to that league.

Speaker 5 (11:19):
It's a different But no, let me say this, is
it really that different now because it's based upon your resources.
It's a different game because your resources is different and
your resources lead to a different level of exposure.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
That's that's really to absolutely.

Speaker 5 (11:37):
But this man is with Dion Sanders man and they're
getting paid. That man is making millions of dollars, So
his exposure is not like I mean, it's not it's
not going to change that much. It's really not. I
don't know how much and this and this in this.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
World that they live in.

Speaker 5 (11:54):
For Shador, for Shallow, for for Travis, it's not going
to change so dramatically when they go pro because they've
been living a pro lifestyle, because they with the pro
of all pros in that lifestyle that we're talking about.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Doing more research.

Speaker 6 (12:11):
They got each other phone password, Instagram password, everything, Like, man,
you can't.

Speaker 5 (12:19):
Some dude just built like that, though, some some guys
are built like that.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
My biggest question is, Hey, them guys.

Speaker 5 (12:26):
Them guys, you ain't hear me say you ain't hurt me?

Speaker 1 (12:30):
Say that? Well, you just said it.

Speaker 5 (12:32):
I said, them, guys, there are some guys that are
built that way. I mean, here's my thing, and I
would I offered myself up in the first in the
first part of what I said, I'll say this, I'll
go deep, I'll pull the curtain front. I pulled the
curtain back. I didn't get a prenup. I didn't get
a prenup. And there were a whole lot of people
that was like, dude, you need to get a prenup.

(12:53):
You need to protect yourself. Da da da da da.
I didn't went through a whole lot of mess bro
I didn't want through a whole lot of mess as
a person, like forget being a player. I've gone through
a lot of things personally in terms of things that
I've done and have not been on the up and
up with. And let me tell you something, it's always

(13:15):
been about we're gonna be better and we're gonna get
through it. And I'm talking on stuff that easily you
could have been like I'm up and I'm out and
it would have been justified every single time. And Trisha
didn't do that. She was and that was to me.
I felt like when I met her, I knew that

(13:35):
was the type of person I had met I had
met my best friend, versus just meeting someone that, you know,
I felt a certain type of way about because of
the way she looked or anything like that. She's willing
to accept me for who I am. And that was
one of the biggest to me determining factors as to
why I got so close. It's been twenty years. It's

(13:56):
been twenty years, so fast forward. Like to me, my
whole thought process is, but can you know that that's
the type of person you're with at that age? That's
the That was the only big question that resonated for
me in this situation at his age, Can you know
you met that type of person? You know you're gonna
you're gonna deal with that in your family.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
You can hope that, you.

Speaker 5 (14:21):
Right, you can hope, but you don't really know. You
don't really know when you're my when you're our age.
You know, you get a little older and get into
the league, and you you know, I.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
Met my wife when I was in the league.

Speaker 5 (14:32):
I ain't meet my wife when I and I had
a fiance and in college that I have a child with.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 7 (14:39):
I knew nothing about life coming out of college going
to the league.

Speaker 6 (14:42):
Man, you know what he's about to see in real life.
He just sees it on the phone. You know what
he about to see in real life, in real life,
not not on the phone in real already.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
No, already know, man, all right, man, I already know.
Come man, and it's going to be on.

Speaker 5 (15:00):
I mean for me, and again I'll say, I mean,
I was the top player in the draft in Plexico's draft.
I was top rated in the two thousand draft.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
The things I saw, the things I.

Speaker 5 (15:12):
Saw when I declared, I do declare that I did
not need to be in a committed relationship. That's that's
what I will say. I didn't need for me. For me,
and I was in a committed relationship and I was engaged.
I was engaged in a committed relationship and did.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
Not need to be in one at that engagement gone
ended badly too.

Speaker 5 (15:40):
And I can guarantee you if I didn't have a
pre nump with her, it was gonna it was gonna
go bad with that one. It went bad with that one.
In fact, it went bad, real bad, super bad. So
prenum or no prenup, no prenom.

Speaker 7 (16:00):
I'm gonna say of us old foods used to be
young fools.

Speaker 5 (16:05):
Pre nup, no prenup, preing up.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
Yeah, you gotta protect yourself. Man, you gotta protect yourself.

Speaker 6 (16:12):
You gotta protect yourself. Let me say this, I'm fifty
fifty on it. I'll be honest. Because they met when
he don't have nothing. Yeah, that was the game. I mean,
I met my wife when I was broke. I met
her when I was broken, So I mean, I tell
her all the time. You knew I was gonna make it,
But you know that's just all funny games.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
I met her.

Speaker 5 (16:35):
You can meet people that was with somebody when they
was broken. But you could clearly be around somebody and
be like, man.

Speaker 6 (16:41):
Hey they took But you know I am easy on
the eyes.

Speaker 5 (16:47):

If me and plex played together, can you imagine if
we have the whole my.

Speaker 5 (17:13):
But I would have been but here. So what you
said about work, Oh my god, my god, Now that's
a whole nother rabbit hole.

Speaker 1 (17:24):

football player, whatever it may be, and you're there saying
that that should be your slogan. But you see it
in some places, and in some places you get to
experience that because of the heat outside, and other places
it gets cold, and you get the experience what that
situation looks like and what it hits for in the cold,

(23:17):

He gotta be.

Speaker 4 (24:07):
It's real treacherous. That's the word for today, Travis Hunter.
It's gonna be real treacherous the next four to five
years when you make this transition to the league. You're
gonna be going to these major US cities. You're gonna
be in a lot of situations. So you just got
a tiptoe the lamb mines man.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
All right, all right, look, I want to transition.

Speaker 7 (24:25):
We're not really going to talk about Lebron James and
the Lakers today because there's nothing to basically talk about
tj hell last week. I mean, yet, we are going
to transition into two to you and see and the
Tall Hills on what Bill Belichick is going to bring

(24:46):
to the University of North Carolina.

Speaker 4 (24:50):
I think Bill, I think Bill wanted a new, challenging life.
Like he's accomplished everything at the NFL level. You know,
he's got the six Super Bowls, he's he's drafted players,
he's hit the ultimate home run with Tom Brady, you know,
being a what six round draft pick.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
So he knows how.

Speaker 4 (25:06):
He knows how to Bill, he knows the recipe, he
has the blueprint, and I think he wants a challenge.
And I think there is something to the whole story
with his dad being an assistant coach back in the day.
This might be a thing where you never know he
might have made that promise to his dad or I
think it's a sentimental move more than just ex's and nose.
I think Bill wants to get back in the trenches

(25:27):
and it's gonna rejuvenate him and invigorate him. He's an
older guy, but Bill is like, well, is he in
the seventies, lake.

Speaker 6 (25:33):
Sixties, seventy seventies.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
Yeah, I think he's seventy two, seventies, seventy three. I believe, Yeah,
it's gonna give him some I think it's gonna give
him some some newfound energy. I feel like, and I
think the City Chapel Hill.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
Is all his girlfriend.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
His girlfriend shout out, yo.

Speaker 5 (25:53):
He don't need no more reinvigorating and re reading nothing.

Speaker 6 (25:58):
Girl, Just like TJ. He said on the last segment. Man, listen,
maybe he getting tired of that.

Speaker 3 (26:08):
We saw Bill, We saw Bill.

Speaker 1 (26:10):
It's time to get out the couch.

Speaker 5 (26:12):
Now had to get back into it.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
Hey, look, we saw Bill coming out of the beach
house shirtless, so we already know the blue shoe is working.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
You already know the.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
Out the blue shue.

Speaker 5 (26:25):
That man walked out with no shirt on, working it.
He is working it out. Ready for college.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
I mean, in all seriousness, I think Bill really has
a chance because we see what the coaches are Indiana
with the Hooges this year they were a basketball school.
Look what he did in Indiana. Why can't pronounce his
last name, but Indiana's head coach. He retooled the whole
program immediately. I think Bill, Yeah, Signetti, I think Bill
can come to u n C. Because the basketball team,

(26:54):
the basketball program as a whole right now, the whole
Michael Jordan's you know, Michael Jordan mostique is going. These
young kids don't care about the fact the MJ winning
the UNC like we did as kids. So I think
the basketball program is slowly starting to decline here, so
he can really turn this into a football school within
two or three years, I think.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
So.

Speaker 4 (27:12):
I'm excited to see it, just being a North Carolina
resident and it's always been up basketball Tobacco Road, UNC
basketball area.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
But the fans here, man, they're excited.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
Like the local news here, everybody is really excited to
see what Bill's gonna do with Chapel Hill.

Speaker 1 (27:28):
Hey, Coups, let me ask you.

Speaker 6 (27:29):
You know, Plex said we weren't gonna talk about the Lakers,
and we don't have to talk about the Lakers.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
But I want to know while Lebron ain't playing.

Speaker 3 (27:36):
Bro he Look, man, I've been getting I'm not lining last.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Week, Tell the Truth, the Farewell Tour this year. No, No,
tell the Truth, Tops, tell the Truth.

Speaker 4 (27:52):
I've been getting messages from people, Yo, what's up with Lebron?

Speaker 3 (27:55):
Is everything?

Speaker 4 (27:56):
I'm like, Look, man, Lebron is in the Himalaya Mountains
right now. Y'all remember Martin Lawrence.

Speaker 5 (28:00):
Episode, Yes, Yes, when he was drew his hair all out.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Yeah, he was going.

Speaker 4 (28:08):
I think he had to do a test of faith, right,
he had to do a test of his faith Lebron
is taking some time away right now.

Speaker 3 (28:14):
He's done this in the past.

Speaker 4 (28:16):
Everybody can relax, Like Aaron Rodgers said, everybody can relax.

Speaker 1 (28:20):
Lebron's done for the season. You see how things going
with Aaron Rodgers right now?

Speaker 4 (28:24):
Not yes, he did. Broun did this, go back to
twenty fifteen. Broun did this twenty sixteen. He took his
little sabbaticals five two or three games. But I will
say everybody's overreacting. The Lakers had a stretch there where
they didn't have any games because they were eliminated from
the NBA Cup, so they had a couple of days off.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
With the schedule. The schedule fell in their favor.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
I thought the Cup.

Speaker 7 (28:46):
But you don't think this was important to the Lagas
because y'all had a ceremony and hung the banner and
the damn Marinas.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
This got big cup. This shows up on games. Ain't
the truth? Man? This show is called up on game.
Keep it real?

Speaker 5 (29:00):
Shoot from you sugarcoating it. Does this have anything to
do with anything with the baby oil Sniper? That's all
It's all I want to know. Oh no, no, Because
the sabbatical came out the same same time that some
allegations came out on you know Rock Nation, you know

(29:21):
all that stuff. I mean, I'm just saying you might
have the inside you know, scoop on all of this,
and I want to know the bunk to spell that room.

Speaker 4 (29:31):
You know, Look lebar you know how you go in
the grocery store and those tabloids is right there at
the register.

Speaker 3 (29:36):
What they say, Look, dude, we saw.

Speaker 4 (29:38):
That we saw the Woollie mammoth in Colorado yesterday or
make up story? It is that, Yeah, that maominal snow Man.
Like all the stuff, all that crazy stuff you seeing
on social media, like.

Speaker 3 (29:50):
Trying to connect lebron Man. All that is horse radish Man.
Bron is getting his mind right.

Speaker 5 (29:55):
And to keep it real with you, what what's he
getting right?

Speaker 4 (29:58):
He's putting some fresh You're on the organization to go
out here and get make these moves because he can't
carry this team at forty, he's the oldest player in
the league. Him and Anthony Davis shouldn't have to carry
this team. They need some more firepower. And Austin Reeves.
I know, he's a crowd favorite. The Lakers love him
because he was an undrafted guy. And they feel like

(30:20):
they groomed him and developed him to be like, you know,
like one of the faces of the franchise now. But
you might have to throw Austin Reds in the trade
if you can go get a star.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
Or but what the Laker's going to get firepower from?

Speaker 4 (30:33):
But look or as we saw today Chicago Bulls only
asking for a first round pick for Lushevich. That's a
center that's averaging close to twenty two and ten this year.
Luceivich has been an All Star before in the past,
and he's looking like an All Star this year in
the East. Get a five man, That's what I'm saying.
The more the story is this, Rob Lincoln had to
go out here and get Anthony Davis and.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
Lebron a center.

Speaker 4 (30:57):
They need a legit center in the starting five. They
don't need any of these like Frends guys like Coloco.
He's a good young player. Those guys do not move
the needle. And the Lakers need to upgrade the center position.
And I feel like Lebron is it's low key putting
some pressure on them and say, you know what, I'm
gonna take some extra PTO right now. Kawhi Leonard does it.
Nobody says a word other superstars load me.

Speaker 5 (31:19):
Nobody really says a word about Kawhi Leonard at all.
Any Nobody's really talking about Kawhi at all. I mean, so,
I mean that in that case, the silence speaks volumes will.

Speaker 7 (31:31):
Nobody started saying a word about Lebron' stil he got
off social media, and I think everybody Antenna's went up.

Speaker 5 (31:37):
Why do you get off of social media at this moment.
I just I don't know that it has to do.

Speaker 3 (31:43):
All one thing. One thing I know about Lebron.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
Just had an election take place.

Speaker 5 (31:47):
You know, they got slipping slide, and you know, parties
taking place. Nobody parties like a party party when the
party is the party where the party happens. I mean,
I'm just saying I don't know, but I'm just saying
they just feel was a little curious to me, and
it just doesn't seem like it would make sense for
it to be based off of just basketball. I don't know, cuffs,

(32:08):
I don't know, but I'm just saying we're gonna have
to continue to the jig is hovering. It's all I'm saying.
I don't know if it's going if it's going like
catching or anything, but it is. It is hovering right now,
and I can't hear man, I can hear it.

Speaker 4 (32:23):
A basketball fan, to be honest with you, as a
basketball fan, is removing all emotions. I want to see
Braun and Steph Curry play together.

Speaker 3 (32:29):
Man.

Speaker 5 (32:30):
Okay, well there you go. That is the bold statement
that you heard from Cuffs the Legend. Make sure you
check them out. That Cuffs the Legend on I g Yeah,
he does the some Dude show. He's super dope dude.
He does it with Kendrick Perkins as well. They do
their watch watch party shows and different things like that.
Make sure you check Cuffs the Legend out. We appreciate you, man.

(32:51):

All right, we appreciate y'all. Before we get up out

know what the results are from last week.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
All I'm gonna.

Speaker 5 (33:56):
Say is is it's time for me to dominate again
with this.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
Nine for some picks. Are you up on game? Let's
break this up, les, break it up down on game.

Speaker 5 (34:11):
Oh yes, I am mister stretched armstrong, and just so
everybody knows, uh panteam man didn't get a chance to
get the hammer of what I do with my picks
and up one game down on game? What was what
was the results from last weekend? Bo And let's get
going and get started with this week's games as well.

Speaker 9 (34:33):
Last week you both went three and three.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
I would have went you did ridiculous.

Speaker 9 (34:40):
You did nail the the Philly Carolina game. The thirteen
and a half wint line was much too high in
that one.

Speaker 5 (34:47):
BAM this week improving team.

Speaker 9 (34:49):
This week, we will start with the Washington Commanders heading
to New Orleans to take on these Saints homecoming game
for Marshall Latimore, his Commander's debut. Washington a seven and
a half point road face. We're right here with the
total currently said it forty three and a half. So
LaVar will start with you.

Speaker 5 (35:04):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the over on the points and
I'm taking Washington to cover.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
Wow, this is crazy. We agree.

Speaker 6 (35:12):
Jake Canner will be starting a quarterback for the New
Orleans Saints, Marshawn Latimer, who will be playing against his
former team with his first game for the Commanders. I
believe he will bring you energy. I will take the
Commanders giving up the points, and I also like this
game to go over.

Speaker 7 (35:28):
Oh man, I'm taking the Washington Commanders, but I'm not
going over the points. I believe they wint about field goal.
The New Orleans Saints will be spirited playing in a
super Dome even though it's Marshawn Lattimore's homecoming. They will
be rejuvenated. But the Commander's win. But only by field goal.

Speaker 9 (35:49):
All right. Next up, the Dallas Cowboys head to Carolina
to take on the Panthers. The Panthers are the favorite
in this game for the first time since I think
like Cam Newton played there three point favorite here he
total currently said a forty three. So t J will
start with.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
You wait, wait, get that to me one more time,
Get that to me one more time. Let me make
sure I'm gonna make the right Cowboys, and.

Speaker 6 (36:13):
One I'm messing with you. I'm going with the Carolina Panthers. Man,
they've been they've looked real good. Favored or not, they've
looked good these last four weeks. And so I'm gonna
take the Carolina Panthers. And I'm going under Well, you
know what I.

Speaker 7 (36:32):
Can't believe I'm saying is but I'm taking Dallas Cowboys
because the Mike McCarthy loses this game just of Panthers,
he is his asses fied. There is no other explanation.
If he loses this game to the kill out of Panthers,
he is fired. So I'm taking the Dallas Cowboys. I
don't money line, I don't care, would don't give it.

(36:53):
Damn what to spread is they gonna win the damn game.
I'm taking on the point. So Mike McCarthy, boy, if
you don't win this game, you ain't even gotta worry
about the home.

Speaker 1 (37:06):
Boy, got to worry about chasing the dog.

Speaker 5 (37:08):
Mike McCarthy, You got to worry about the dog catching
your ass.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
I've with Plex on this one.

Speaker 5 (37:15):
Our money line the Cowboys game as well, and I'm
gonna take the under on the points.

Speaker 9 (37:20):
All right, last game here, the game of the weekend.
The Buffalo Bills head to Detroit to take on the
Lions and the Lake. So want Detroit a two and
a half point favorite here at home. The total currently
said at fifty four and a half, and Plaux will
start with you here.

Speaker 7 (37:35):
I gotta go with Josh Allen. I'm taking the Buffalo Bills.
I think down an upward trajectory over the points. You
said was two and a half.

Speaker 9 (37:45):
Yeah, Detroit to two and a half point favorite here.

Speaker 7 (37:48):
I'm taking the Buffalo Bills that win by touch.

Speaker 5 (37:50):
Now I'm taking the Detroit Lions. What's the two and
a half, yep, and they're gonna cover. They're gonna cover that.
And what's the total on the point?

Speaker 9 (38:03):
Fifty four and a half.

Speaker 5 (38:03):
Yeah, and they are going to go over on the points.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
Man, it's a tough game here, man.

Speaker 6 (38:09):
You know, the Bills coming off of a loss to
the Los Angeles Roums defense cannot get a stop. Now
you're planning the Detroit Lions, so I believe have a
better offense attended Los Angeles rounds. So I'm gonna for
sure go over. I'm also taking the Detroit Lions to
win this game. Detroit Lions are the best team in

(38:29):
the National Football League and they're gonna show it.

Speaker 9 (38:33):
