H Oh He N A Oh [Applause] Up A The following program is a collection of stoes talking about happenings in the sports world it is meant to be comedic informative the opinions expressed on this show do not necessarily reflect the beliefs of their peers their boss or ESPN there may be some cuss words because that’s how Cubans is the real
World talk if you are a young please seek permission before watching any further hey what let’s go this show stinks and the fact that you listen we are very very thankful for the all-time leading tackler for the Green Bay Packers you pink up up damn it be a friend tell a
Friend something nice could change their life we sport sport sport sport hello beautiful people and Welcome to our humble the Thunderdome on this happy new league year Wednesday March 13th 2024 this Sports par Starts Now Sports I’m going set the ey to March 15
Uh but it is not it is March 13th and it is a massive day today the new league year for the NFL kicks off by 4 p.m. today every single team has to be salary cap compliant the Chargers are all eyes on on because they are like 20 some
Million doll over the cap right now they’re going to have to make some moves what does that mean well probably some big names potentially being released maybe a little bit of a restructuring happening with some of the names that they want to keep around Jim Harbaugh in
His first year who does he see as Chargers in the image in which he plans on building the team we will find that all out today in the next four hours there’s been a lot happening around the NFL obviously free agency signings are continuing to take place even though
They’re not official until today a lot have already been announced yesterday after we went off the air a lot of things happened the talkit table is here at Tai Schmidt at Boston Connor a lot of chatter about the things that took place yesterday on the Glorious Tuesday yeah a
Lot of big names off The Board denal Hunter kind of one of the best if not the best pass rusher from the Vikings he had 16 and a half sacks last year he’s signing with the Texans on yeah yeah Dam near fully guaranteed deal uh two years yeah there it is
49 48 48 excuse me guaranteed up to 49 I believe it’s actually up to it he was a big name CJ GJ stud safety from the Lions forly of the Eagles going back to Philly after saying that the worst part about Philly was the people of Philadelphia he has already
Apologized that that was our stream he was playing GTA he was all he was all geeked up CJ GJ he talks that’s literally the reason one of the reasons why a lot of people were hoping he would join their team cuz he’s a culture Setter tone Setter immediately you see
What happened to Philadelphia Eagles at the end of the year last year you do want wonder if you have a CJ GJ in that locker room does it take place because of who he is as a person he was streaming whenever he went to the Lions exactly you know he’s with the eagles
They do good thought he was going to go back to the Eagles he ends up going to the Lions which is a good culture for CJ GJ to go to anyways he’s streaming playing a little GTA and he was asked by somebody in the chat you know like hey
What what what’s your least favorite part about Philly or something like that and he said fans were the worst yeah now I would argue that he and the fans have so much in which is potentially why that they could see maybe odds but I think he was also
Just talking like I think that’s all it was so as soon as he gets back there make some plays like he always has the Eagles fans will love him again just like Jason Kelsey said about Zack s who was once a man they wanted out of town
And then once he started making plays and playing in The Philly Way the right way of football they loved him again good for CJ GJ going back good for serani getting him back in that locker room which I think Vic fangio will obviously make the most of yeah fangio’s
Got to be Juiced up about that we also had another in division signing former bills stud our guy All Pro po Jordan puyer going from Buffalo Bills to the Miami Dolphins that’s like a oneyear $2 million deal so absolute steal it feels like in Miami and Jordan puyer uh I’m
Just reading the internet sure from Jordan poyer social media and some other source says that we have I think there is a chance I’m not 100% sure I think there’s a chance Jordan puyer is currently in Costa Rica right now oh wow okay I think he posted on his
Instagram last night uh a picture from pla estos Estee nailed it thank you zto did that sound good yes it did okay thank you zto speak Spanish so that is obviously little check there when we look within and heal our wounds we contribute to the healing of the planet
By Shifting the collective Consciousness towards Greater Love empathy and sustainability and hell yeah brother I I mean amen come on with a good use of Emoji at the end to kind of bring it all together he’s sitting at a table with uh on the left side a white with sunglasses
And a and a lady with dark hair who seems to be explaining the world okay here’s the universe here’s you here’s how this whole thing goes and then if you look at the blue hat with the sunglass and mustache I’m not 100% sure but from the side profile is that a
Future Vice President of the United States of America it could be like okay so Huga I believe that is Aaron Rogers there now when the news broke on the internet yesterday that uh from The New York Times that RFK Jr had Aaron Rogers as one of the finalist for
His potential vice president in his independent presidential run that is currently taking place obviously the world oh yeah exploded the world uh you know what Tom peliso was the one that was able to break the news in the football world so this entire thing went Aaron Rogers and Jesse de Ventura who is
Uh former WWE wrestler and also governor of Minnesota corre I do believe who has always been a very independent mind thinker and uh very free to speak about however the hell he feels very I think a lot of people would say he is couraged
To say things uh that you know a lot of other people don’t say is how that is whole thing trra just like Aaron Rogers if you can see what RFK Jr is kind of looking for here and uh boy I I did not expect this one you know I had no idea
This one was going to happen I started thinking back you can see how RFK Jr maybe Aon really ruffled some feathers in the politics world yeah we happen to be in the middle of that sure and I didn’t necessarily love the feathers that were ruffled because I had to be in
The middle of the storm in the middle of the absolute storm uh but Hey listen Aaron Rogers friend of the progr in friend of ours this is how he feels he’s one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of football this is how he feels you’re learning that is journalism okay
You’re learning about this particular person uh so I reached out to uh Source says from my understanding there is a chance that um said person that potential future vice president for an independent president if that was ever to happen first time ever in the history the United States of America never
Really got more than like I think 4% Vote or something like cor MH if it happens though I I’ve done a lot of quick research here over the last I’m sure there’s people that know a lot more um that man the world found out while
That man was in Costa Rica MH that vice president yeah so whenever that picture is posted Jordan puyer Aaron Rogers we can elude now from our source down in Costa Rica right now correct what are they doing in Costa Rica we assume there’s a chance of going to take a
Visit to the plankl exactly getting ready to sit with the medicine they are ready to sit with the medicine and they said you don’t necessarily have to go atak and basement if you prepare for this entire thing to be honest I had no idea I thank you for Jordan porer for
Documenting this that is a much nicer setup than I was expecting whenever I heard these stories of the iasa usage down in Costa Rica cuz they’re talking about being in a TP and all this stuff I’m like well I’m never doing that and I’ve seen other people do videos and
It’s like you’re walking through mud like you’re sleeping on like jungle seems like a very nice setup down there for them feels like these the people that go down there everybody that does it seemingly comes back on the other side of it feeling like a better person feeling better about themselves I think
They’re all SE something whenever they choose to go to Costa Rica to do this and I think that’s why anytime I hear somebody has done it I’m like I’m happy that you went and found something that makes you happy or fulfilled inside of that I’m not 100% sure though that the
Quarterback for the New York Jets necessarily knew that the New York Times was going to be reporting sure that he was potentially going to be vice president I didn’t get many follow-up questions in there uh you know cuz in the middle of something but I’m not 100%
Sure there was a uh a a full roll out plan uh in cuz he would not be in Costa Rica you would think if that was the case now Jets fans read that boy and they go Bo guys play quarterback we just kicked the entire season yeah yep four
Plays into our season it ended and then we were just like next year will be better because he’s going to play more than four place I would assume that Aaron’s going to be a quarterback for the Jets and play great football mhm I would assume that this vice president
Thing potentially was a part of a conversation that took place and people in the know at the time heard it and said hey this is being discussed especially because RFK Jr is going as an independent so there’s a lot of people that potentially would try to be ruining
It you know like there is not ruining but you get it that’s political that’s how the whole thing goes so I do wonder and we will try to get the answer from Aaron in the in where his mindset is but I’m not 100% sure this is uh this from
My perspective from the things that I know that this is anywhere near a reality no now bummer that’s a huge I am bummed I am bummed out about that just because the way that would have been covered in the stories that that would and maybe he does I have no this is once
Again I have not gotten any answers or asked AJ Hawk who will be joining us in next he might have more to be honest in this entire thing but this does not feel like a potential reality what feels like a reality is that you know he’s
Currently doing his reg this is a very standard Aaron Rogers offseason and then I assume OTAs are back like everything that was being built up for last year’s Jets team in that feeling that he cuz if you remember the way he was talking about how happy he was to be back in the
Building and loving football again and everything like that and him joging out on September 11th with that flag which RFK junor is probably like CU that’s what he do anybody else have that anyway the whole thing like that feeling that he had I think he is going to be
Searching for that feeling again with the New York Jets this season and I think he’s going to be a guy who wants to do exactly why he wanted to go to New York which is bring a winner there because if you bring a winner to the New
York Jets King yeah forever forever in that thing like he knows that that team knows that I think like he’s going to try to do that so this whole thing I think Michael Cole sent me a text so pumped he sent me I guess there’s uh images now of Cala Harris’s
Head on Aaron rogers’s body with a Jets uniform on he goes this is my life now what do we do this is your friend that’s what he is he’s your friend what do we even guy’s going to guy’s got Heartbeat Away From The Free World that’s what
Yeah and guy supposed to just throw we just want 35 touchdowns next year that’s all we’re looking for in this entire thing I’m not 100% sure how real any of it is but I’m sure it was potentially disgust but you know but I am excited
That this has become a news uh thing in the world because other than NFL free agency in the new league year which is going to be we’re thinking fireworks are happening today with big names big contracts with the Chargers it’s about to be college basketball season we can’t
Talk about college basketball because we we FaceTime ree Davis this morning he didn’t answer yeah come on you do good season it was college basketball was awesome didn’t answer he didn’t answer I want to I want to no this is the new thing cold facetimes in the morning what
Are we talking about today got some good news Luke comes is on the show hell yeah 105 Eastern there was another cold FaceTime you know that kind of took place plus a connection maybe from a coonan o maybe from a David coonan who currently in a in a park in this entire
Thing he puts out a tweet about the Carolina Panthers obviously he’s upset about what’s going on there and what the future looks like diard Carolina Panther fan obviously country music Superstar he will be joining us uh to chitchat in the second hour also in the second hour
Another Carolina Legend I guess NC State Superstar uh Bill Carr coach yeah coach Bill car will join us in the second hour here in a few M uh moments Michael Lombardi will join us and once again no Rees Davis cuz he just didn’t answer FaceTime damn so we we made the decision
As the call was being made the cold FaceTime that maybe if Reese answers we’ll talk college ball but since he didn’t we won’t with that being said next Friday we will be live on the University of Iowa’s campus hell yeah from the Fieldhouse obviously that’ll either be
The day that Caitlyn Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes uh tip off and start their March Madness run or they will be scheduled to play on Saturday we will not find out until selection Sunday but we are very thankful that this relationship with ESPN has afforded us
An opportunity to be able to go back to Tai Schmidt’s school during a time in which Iowa is experiencing a once in a generation type run that will catapult the Iowa Hawkeyes into a successful Organization for the next 20 years probably because of what Caitlyn Clark
Is doing and we get to be there next Friday I’m pumped about it the whole show will be there I believe there’s a chance Roman Reigns is flying in what what the tri what I believe the tribal Chief is flying in yeah kidding me yep yeah this is all these cold facetimes
That just take place like hey this is happening what are we thinking yeah I think Roman Reigns is traveling in big respects the hell out of Caitlyn Clark I think smackdown’s going to be in the area was like yeah we can just would love to do flight we’ be honored to do
That it’s like sweet I think Dallas Clark is going to stop by I I I couldn’t even fathom the amount of people that were going to be able to stop over there it’s going to be a good launch to the women’s college basketball tournament and uh Iowa should be electrifying now
Where the hell is this show happening at yeah Fieldhouse so it’s it’s kind of on I want to say I think it’s the west side of the river so there are a bunch of dorms uh right there and then it’s kind of near kinck stadium and Carver where
The uh the basketball teams play little bit old used to be where the uh the men’s team played like a long time ago and then it got kind of just turned into like the rec center they built a beautiful new one uh downtown more s like towards the library
But it should be a good time it’s been a while since I’ve been back on campus so I am very very excited and I assume like there there probably hasn’t I mean there there was a little like they I went to the Orange Bowl my freshman year so like
You know you could go to a Rose Bowl like that buzz was palpable but I’m very excited to see what it’s like with Caitlyn Clark them being a one seed like you would assume being a one seed like it should be awesome the assumption is they are at one seed that’s why we’re
Going correct cuz uh they would have a home game now we had to wait until the Big 10 championship ship and how everything would go and how everything went they end up winning that we had eyes on reach out to vice president Mike Foss at ESPN former MLS Superstar who’s
Our Point man over there and we go we should go to Iowa like this is a cool thing like this is a cool moment we want to support the women’s March Madness as well because we watched last year it is electrifying so now that we get a chance
Of maybe being a home of one of these games let’s go let’s do this we won’t know when the game is there because there’s a chance we’re not in the field house there’s a chance we do the show in the uh the arena yeah in the there’s a
Chance I guess MH that’s if they are scheduled to play on Saturday yep if they’re scheduled to play on Friday obviously get the hell out of the way stup get it but if not there so there’s a lot going on we will be in Iowa though next Friday cannot wait for that shout
Out to Tai shout out to the Hawkeyes and hopefully we’ll see some people hopefully some people come out to watch the program should be electrifying one half of the hammer Cowboys tone digs the women’s March Madness I I assume it’s uh SC then LSU then Iowa on the odds for the tour is
That is that accurate yeah and uh Iowa and LSU have the exact same odds to win the tournament SC is the favorite by by quite a bit uh they got a 6 foot eight girl who throws punches maker and Banks Home Three they got a minus next to
Their number so they are the favorites to win the tournament by far they are so good they got a point guard too that’s just like oh Shake could you imagine if like Caitlyn Clark was on I’m not no the Iowa Hawkeyes team is awesome fair point
I love the way that they play ball in that senior with the SWAT yeah Gabby Marshall incredible Kate Martin’s a doll shooter yeah the five2 is phenomenal always has head on a swift like Hannah stalky there it is yeah like they are an incredible they don’t have a 6 fo8 no
You know I mean like that’s why whenever Caitlyn gets to the fever I’m excited to see her yeah playing with like Aaliyah Boston and yeah because you watch a South Carolina point guard it’s like we’re really uh it’s a that’s why this I hawkey seems be smacking for oh yeah you
Know they’re gonna have to be hit a lot of Threes get hot the logo is gonna have to be obviously Kaitlin’s going to do her thing but it’s like the women’s basketball tournament is electrifying and uh next Friday should be incredible yeah I know a lot more about the women’s
Tournament this year than I do the men did which we tried to learn about did The Men We called Reese Davis he didn’t answer did the national did that tournament start yet who’s that the men’s uh I we tried I don’t know we tried to ask re Davis I didn’t hear
Don’t matter you can’t in it bet did they already Co ladies and gentlemen that’s 9year NFL vet derus jate Butler Yukon women they’re not even in the top what are you talking about no Yukon men the the reigning National Champion right now they probably a bet in favorite to running back I would
Assume who’s the coach he’s he’s a wild animal yeah he was going to fight a crowd last yeah he’s awesome right they’d be up 20 they’ll be up 20 and he’s going after the ref they are the favorites running back yeah what what are they plus 480 oh not that good
Favorites ni that’s still pretty good money who who else is up there uh Houston Purdue Houston oh yeah they got that little guy the coach the uh he’s older fell he’s been around a long time Samson yeah Kevin Samson wow y good pull thank you we don’t
Need still at Oklahoma or yeah one of the other several places he’s got fired for cheating from whoa he was allegedly ohin Kelvin Samson hats off for what he’s done in Houston that some is going to be cheating tell his nil it’s thought he’s just ahead of the
Time he want to take care of the players yeah you’re right you’re right yeah that’s hey that’s Kelvin Samson basketball I got to watch his Houston team here whenever they played uh final four maybe UCLA Indianapolis they were awesome to watch yeah they’re playing against UCLA kid with the big frow yeah
Boom uh was the uh the point guard all those guys probably still in school because this Co is basketball doing the same as football where guys are there for like eight once again we tried to get these answers ree Davis did not we try this is the least I’ve ever known
About college basketball yeah Debo just gave it to us we got three minutes until Michael Lombard’s going to come in and break down the entire free agency process we’re on ESPN news today we’re doing thiss yeah we are I might be wrong but they I think they say that about
Edie at Purdue that he’s been there for like 20 years they retired his jersey Ed has deserved it 28 UNC is he still there yeah is jeez he he got a full reti senior night he got a burger too he’s got a cheeseburger down there I
Saw at Jimmy’s oh is a burger named afom yeah oh what’s RAC deal days I saw it call Pete it’s probably is he sitting on a beach or something I’m sitting on beach down in B Sting coming up does P2 colge basketball I I think so he’s uh reported on a
Couple guys getting let go Pete we’re live he didn’t answer he might be plugged in right now charging yeah anyways College basketball’s happening we’ll be at the women’s college basketball tip off next Friday in Iowa that is fantastic news now let’s talk about some of these DBS that signed
You know Jordan puyer goes down to Miami CJ GJ what are your thoughts on all of it Kenny Moore back in ched about what are your thoughts debut from a secondary position yeah Kenny Moore coming in I think uh was it last year before last
You know kind of had up and down year had some contract uh dealings some issues going into that season this year had a great season signed the uh biggest deal for a nickel in NFL history 3 years 30 million I believe okay congratulations it’s only going to
Continue to grow as football evolves I think right the nickel position becomes like a base formation so so important they’re pretty much starters and they do so much uh not only in the Run game but in the pass game of course so him going down there mentioned All Pro po uh cam
Curl is still out there still available quandre Diggs as well Justin Simmons uh probably the best safety still available um right now also and you mentioned CJ GJ going back to Philly he’s got a three-year deal as well I know the last couple years he’s been wanting a
Multi-year contract um ever since Chang his position and leaving New Orleans so love to see him going back to Philly joining us now is a racist Italian man who happens to have have literally done every single job in the NFL he’s an author a speaker a podcast host or a GM
A multiple time Super Bowl champion friend of the program ladies and gentlemen Michael Lombardi how we doing today lombo if you just say it a bunch of times it’s the truth I want to start you have to be excited at the kickers that were going on Monday the flow of the kickers will
Lot all these guys CH Brian Brandon mcmanis I mean it was exciting this kicker world I like the fact you got both their names right because that is a big deal uh because sometimes I’m off to a good start it’ll go downhill from here no well well let’s MCM you’re pulling
Kickers names out of free agency I mean you did pretty good there lombo also Tommy tzen punter signs with the Texans then you got C Johnson signing with uh the Pittsburgh Steelers will Lut said um he had like a handful of teams that were in which is the question I asked him
Handful of teams were in the market that he was uh talking to Jacksonville was one of them Denver was one of them I think there was a couple other teams as well that were looking to sign them now the deals obviously Justin Tucker got broken off and uh I forget who somebody
Else gay Mt gay signed the biggest deal here in Indianapolis but like if a team loses games because their kicker misses normally that free agency the GM can make a decision like I’mma go after aen kicker and then that kind of covers your ass too like I tried to address it right
Isn’t that kind of something that take the kicking Community well there there’s some feeling like you know kickers are all within the same range but you know that one or two kick separates one of the two kickers but handling the pressure of the moment making big kicks clutch kicks that’s really something and
And you know this game comes down to one or two plays one or two kicks and you have to I think people have realized that you’re going to have to pay for some kickers I know you know the Patriots you know went with a rookie cooker that really hurt their team at
Times time San Francisco’s kicker R hurt their Moody hurt their team a little bit in terms of making kicks but I I think the the importance of when you send that guy out there knowing that he’s going to make it and you feel you know 95% confident he will is important the games
Especially as close as they are so I I could see why they’re getting paid they deserve to get paid well I think like fan bases too can accept you paying a kicker if they have to suffer through a couple games where the kicker loses the
Game you know because I think a lot of fans you know throughout the history of football have always thought the same thing you are like a get a k it’s easy job just go make your kicks make your kicks but if you’re a fan base that has suffered through a season where the
Kicker ruined it for you it’s almost like the GM can win a headline by signing a good kicker as well which it always has it hasn’t always been that way and with the salary cap getting to where it’s going if you throw a couple million at a kicker like that’s a big
Offer as opposed to a vet Min you can steal some real talent now will Lutz is one of those guys mcmanis is one of those guys I’m not sure how many will hit the market Market but happy for the specialist let’s talk about that first day and second day of free agency who
Has won this entire thing Lomo from your eyes now I know it’s impossible to say that somebody has W free agency we have no idea how any of this is going to work out in the regular season headlines in March don’t mean football games in February we understand that completely
But who do you who do you think has really approached it in a way that you would say I like what they did with their money and how they did it well I I think I some of the things that Washington has done I like I I like that
They’re able to they geted two players from Carolina’s team Frankie loua and Jeremy chin both really good players now chin was hurt last year but those are two players that’ll certainly upgrade Washington’s team to go along with Armstrong who they signed from Dallas so you know I I and then they got mcmanis
To kick so that there’s three there’s four positions that they’ve improved on a team that needed a lot of improvement and it’s going to be a gradual thing as you move forward look Christian Wilkins is a really good player for the Raiders I think that was worthwhile of spending
The money on because it’s hard to find three techniques and I believe in building strength on strength when you’re strong in an area then you strengthen that area with someone else so when you now have Max Crosby lined up at left end and you put Wilkins over at
Left tackle all of a sudden you know the center’s coming your way because they got to get three on two over on this side with the back chipet I think that really helps but I think when you go through all these individual moves there’s certain things that you look for
That can get you your team like Green Bay Green Bay made a conscious decision to really improve their power Run game they decided let’s take AJ Dylan and let’s take the best of Aaron Jones and combine it into one player and that ends up being Josh Jacobs because Jacobs is
Very good in the passing game let’s not confuse this right like Jacobs is very good in the passing game in fact they should throw him the ball more because he can catch very effectively and nobody wants to tackle this guy down the field so they did him on a one-year deal paid
Him 148 million you know they get mckin come in to play safety I kind of like that you know I I didn’t like losing Aaron Jones because I love Aaron Jones I understand why they had to do it I think Minnesota too in their front seven they
Get van gingle who’s a good player they get greenard who’s a really good player you know and they get Aaron Jones as a good player now you know everybody doesn’t you know worried about Sam darnold well they’re trying to bridge themselves to the next quarterback how about the Texans and what they’ve been
Able to do they’re active and it feels like Deo is going to be able to recruit and get people to come to Houston Texas has the no state income tax I do believe they’re one of the states that has that so that’s quite a benefit but if you
Look at what they’ve been able to do I did not expect this from the Houston the Houston Texans were supposed to suck for 10 years and I love the Houston Texans I love and appreciate CJ Stout he’s been great on our show cerio has been awesome
On our hasn’t he he’s been he’s been too good on our show almost in this entire thing demo has been fantastic ever their PR Guy best guy in the NFL to us I love that the Houston Texans and the people there are having Success With that being
Said as an Indianapolis colat fan they were supposed to suck for the next 10 years now they’re seemingly making smart moves and getting better every single day lombo do you see it that way well I think what you want to look for in free agency is does the team have a plan are
They executing a philosophical plan not trying to fill team needs like what are we trying to accomplish and I think Deo Ryan has taken that 49er approach that we’re going to put money in defensive lineman that’s what we’re going to do that’s what wins the game that’s what
Wins the game in the fourth quarter that’s what we have to do now greenard is a good player they lost him but they replace him with Danielle Hunter and I think to me they’re putting their money they have a formula on what they want to do they’re following the San Francisco
Blueprint which has been successful I think that’s something you want to be able to do as a general manager you got to have a blueprint what are we trying to accomplish you know everybody gets so upset if you don’t spend money but if you just randomly start signing players
Without a blueprint you’re going to waste money and I think what the Colts are doing you know they’re signing their own guys they’re using their cap room to extend their players that doesn’t mean they’re not going to improve their team but they’re going to be very careful
About how they approach that and I think it’s way too early to judge the finality but Houston I think really Houston has done exactly what San Francisco has and getting Mixon to they had a chance at Barkley and I and I thought they might get Barkley because of the state income
Tax you refer to because here in Jersey and Philadelphia it’s heavy tax but I think Barkley being a Penn State kid being from the area wanted to stay close to home you like that move in phly you like sequan going there yeah I think sometimes you have to analyze what is
The impact of the move right and so what they’re telling you in this move is look Jaylen Herz operates really well when my sanders was humming two years ago and they were running the ball really effectively and they had that play action pass going and they were dominating the line of scrimmage now
They what they decided is they went went on the cheaper route last year they let Sanders they let mil Sanders go for just over six million it wasn’t a lot of money in the realm of things and it affected their offense and they need to take some of the pressure off of Herz
They need to stay in a play action pass game and having a legitimate back in the back field somebody who can break tackles make long runs fits their profile because here’s what we know about Philadelphia they get into any third and one they’re going to convert
The first down I mean you know so really they operate with most like most offenses with is two downs I mean all they got to do is get you know they third one it’s a first down so I think this is some way what Philly did was it’s against their Norm now they
Typically don’t like to sign running backs but I think what they were saying to themselves from my viewpoint is we have to do everything in our power to help Jaylen become the player we paid him to become and I think Barkley does that yeah I wonder if Kell Moore will
Stick with the run you know you know that is that’s a whole another question because down there in Dallas he had Zeke and Tony and then Dak goes and has 40,000 yards or whatever the case is and it’s or 40 touchdown and however money and it was Mike McCarthy who say you I
Know C Mo wants do he wants to roll up scoreboard you know even though they PID zon it’s like uh Kell’s MO is to air it out we are gonna air this thing out you bring in saquin hopefully that’s enough of a piece and I would assume serani is
Going to drill home that we need to run the rock but like I think kellmore Vic fangio big upgrades you’re bring in sequin obviously that’s another weapon you got AJ you got Devonte you got offensive line without Jason Kelce so who knows if the tush push is still a 98
92% or 98% or whatever it is but we will assume that’s the case doesn’t feel like the eagles were that far away but we didn’t think that last year and then they yeah big Dom’s back on the sideline that’s good let’s go to the complete opposite end of the spectrum Ton’s got a
Question for you lombo yeah lombo I got a question for you about about having a plan uh and a trade that happened last night uh Deontay Johnson for Dante Jackson and and a pick flop basically between the Steelers and the Panthers both of those players were on their last
Year their contract is that example of hey we’re not resigning these guys after this year let’s and and they they kind of haven’t worked out or Deontay has worked out but he’s kind of made some waves and then as far as the plan down in Carolina you know they’ve signed a
Couple guards to improve the old line they bring in a a weapon for for Bryce young now is that their plan now how do you how do you see Carolina’s uh offseason going so far th th this trade was made as kind of an old school trade
It would happened years ago when uh Ron wolf was the general manager of the Packers he traded Fred Vincent a corner who was in the last year of his contract to to Seattle for Aman green and everybody’s probably too young to remember that but was a really good
Player for the Packers so these trades kind of like they they they become it gives the player of fresh air it gives him an opportunity to prove his Worth to the new team I think and both teams needed that with cuton Patrick Peterson I mean Pittsburgh needed this look
Pittsburgh signing Patrick Queen was significant for them because they’ve been trying to replace Ryan shazir for years they’ve been trying to find that inside linebacker who could run and give their defense more Team Speed that’s been a hard thing for them to do and they haven’t been able to quite do it
Yet and hopefully they can do it with Queen so but Carolina you know look for me Carol they dead for what three years they’re dead for three years this is uh terer understands that they got a mul we have Luke comes joining us in like 35
Minutes or so he put out he put out a tweet and was like what are we doing you know what what are we doing no first for Christian no no nothing I agree with the man I I I asked the same thing like I don’t know what they’re doing Jeremy
Chim was one of their best good young players Brian Burns was one of their good young players I mean this trade here what they paid is there anybody in that building saying to this owner we can’t do this like we’re gonna look stupid like at some point like this is
Like just continues to mount and where’s the plan like give me the idea of what the plan okay we signed two guards all right okay great you know that’s great we signed two guard but what is the overall philosophical plan for the team where are we going what are we trying to
Build here like what are we trying to accomplish like I think to me and I can’t find it in Carolina you know and everybody says well they you know all these moves that Scott Federer made last year Morgan was in the building when they were making them so I guess he
Didn’t approve of them I guess because of getting rid of all the guys that they brought in so I’m a little I’m with Luke Coles on this one here I don’t get it you know and uh you know most Carol fans will be driving a fast car out of town
If they don’t win too quick well you know good you gota like that yeah it was pretty good you think I didn’t know that song you didn’t think I knew that song you didn’t think I you thought I was too old to know that song
It just it was just on Oscar gram the Grammys forever ago they saying that was great performance and his hair looked awesome yeah normally has hat on done do it hat off in tux I I thought the best thing about that thing was the respect
He paid to her I thought you could just see the respect that he was giving her in that video and I don’t even know the guy but I could just feel it just looking at it so I got a chance to meet him at App State just what a I don’t
Want to say basic ass dude but like regular dude when we facetimed him earlier he was taking trash to the dump and then he had to go take care of his daughter like clean out the yeah he like he it was like he’s a normal I think
That’s why he’s going to continue to resonate and continue to write songs that people can relate to because he is seemingly a human but he told told the story about driving around with his dad and like this song basically getting him into music as a whole so I think he was
Very honored to that she said yes and that was our first time ever performing at the Grammys if I do recall performing in a long time in general yeah they crushed it they absolutely crushed it yeah we hey okay lbo also shout Tracy I’m trying I’m trying but how
About you pulling the trigger unbelievable that was pretty good uh Ty’s got a question for you Lomo yeah Lomo you kind of already mentioned it but the running backs kind of stole the show uh on the first two days of free agency do you think that’s more indicative of teams not really liking
Who they see in the draft this year at running back or do you think we’re kind of getting a little Resurgence or was it just the fact that this was the best free agent running back class in in maybe the last like 10 15 years I mean
Look the guy you know the Raiders are GNA cut hen rro he was making 16 million a year they’re going to cut him he’s a slot receiver you don’t think Josh Jacobs does more for the Raiders winning than Hunter rro did like there’s an imbalance pretty racist you pretty
Racist Barley’s going to touch the ball 200 times for the Eagles he’s going to make a huge difference in their team and I don’t think people overpaid for the backs I mean what Barkley got you know his deal and Jacobs is really a one three one-year deals at around 14
Million and change so yeah I do think the value was there like Eckler didn’t get a great deal from Washington nowhere near what I thought he thought he could get but he didn’t have a good season so he’s going to have to prove himself but look when you can get a running back
That can make this kind of a difference you know when you put Derk Henry behind Lamar and if they get him under Center a little bit and they’re able to run him with some power you know it just opens up a lot of other things and I think
That you know this running back Market has been so depleted that I think there are the guys that deserve to get paid 8 million a year for a guy that’s going to tote the ball 300 times ain’t a lot of money okay we have some breaking news
From Adam shefer right here a trade reunion Morgan Moses is going back to the New York Jets uh after playing for the Ravens in 2022 and 2023 obviously offensive line help for the New York Jets is what they’ve been looking for jets also receive a fourth round pick while the Ravens receive a
Fourth round and a sixth round pick in return uh Aaron roders I believe is in Costa Rica currently uh the New York Times says maybe he’s the next Vice President of the United States of America what we certainly are sure of is the quarterback for the New York Jets
Going into this next season they’re addressing a massive need for them which is offensive line we’re assuming here yeah I think so and you know the Ravens also redid R Ronnie Stanley ‘s contract too to get under the cap Ronnie Stanley was the highest paid player on team in
Terms of cap number and they restructured that deal which they had to because he’s missed so many games his durability has been an issue look I think the Ravens have taken the approach they need to proove their offensive line you know Kevin zitler is a free agent
Out there I think they have they got to improve Stanley’s got to play better they’ve got to get better at right tackle I think that’s why they traded Moses and he helps the Jets because the Jets don’t have a right tackle so I think it’s a little bit of help for both
Teams and it really didn’t cost very much money so it’s hard to find tackles in free agency look it’s hard to find offensive and defensive linemen out there on the market especially at the tackle position so we’ll see how this works out but I think the Ravens if they
If you said to me what do they really need to fix they need to really spend time on their offensive line now they have some young players that they feel that they could step in and play well we’ll see Derrick Henry helps the offensive line immediately right doesn’t
It you would think if he’s playing his best football if he’s playing his best football I go ahead I I think if he if they put Lamar under Center and you got Henry back there at seven yards andard Patrick Ricard yeah and they’re running the outside Zone on you and all
Of a sudden because remember this there’s only one play in football the quarterback blocks somebody that’s on the boots and naked so somebody’s got to run out there with Lamar so if he fakes a hand off to or gives it to Henry somebody’s going to follow him so an
Eight-man front becomes a seven-man front and I think to me this really gives you a dynamic a dynamic explosive uh play action pass passing game this guy can run inside Zone outside Zone look I watched his workout on on Twitter that was impressive I mean I I thought
After his first 400 carry season he would go downhill but he hasn’t he’s got this unique ability to play with incredible power in his lower body and I think he’s going to make a difference for them I don’t think they’ll go into a playoff game next year run it nine times
There yeah against the Chiefs which is the whole conversation after the game was lost by the Ravens after a phenomenal year dominant year where they were resting starters in the fourth quarter in multiple games throughout the entire season that’s how dominant they were some of these workouts Derrick
Henry puts on the internet are absurd he’s using banss for things at like 400 lb and like his arms are like shaking he’s like moving everything he does is phenomenal remember he didn’t start his NFL career as being this guy allegedly what took place was Eddie George and he
Had a full sitdown Eddie George is an actual house Derrick Henry and Eddie George are probably the two biggest running backs in the history of the NFL that have had success I’m just saying that I have not research that but Eddie George is so large as he I don’t think
People realize that because I don’t think they’ve seen him in real life too you know likeall yeah just yeah like St stack absolutely stacked and that was a big part of his game I think a lot of people see the highlight of him like running down the sideline or whatever
But he was a massive dude who could move but also punish people and allegedly Eddie George talked to Derrick Henry and was like hey this is what we got to start doing more of and then boom the Titans Go on that playoff run he becomes
A Star Tan gets paid he gets paid here we are maybe back in Baltimore they’re able to relive some of that with Derrick Henry who certainly still has juice now speaking of juice the number one overall pick has a lot of juice uh that team carries a lot of weight on Indianapolis
Free agency in the trade talks com man’s got a question for you yeah Lomo obviously I think after poles did his entire combine thing that you know they would move quickly with fields and they want to do right by him people were expecting that to happen you know
Especially by now by free agency and nothing has happened and the Bears said that they’re doing their due diligence on Caleb and he’s got his pro day coming up here how do you see this situation playing out and what do you think they’re actually going to end up getting
Back for fields and is there any chance that he’s on the roster well I mean that’s a great question is he starting with the Z on the roster I mean I I have a hard time believing that you’re going to have fields on the team and draft Caleb
Williams and I think the problem is you know this whole notion that we haven’t really talked about trades with anybody no no you know nobody’s been calling nobody’s really asking everybody thought well he’s gonna get a one and a two that didn’t happen oh okay well now he’s
Going to get the Alex Smith trade a three well there’s no interest and quarterbacks are like the musical chairs once the chair gets filled nobody wants them I said this ago on my show I said it on on the GM Shuffle if the Raiders aren’t interested in Justin Fields with
Luke gsy as their offensive coordinator that sends a powerful message to the rest of the National Football League it sends a powerful message because the NFL is always behind the scenes coaches calling other coaches what do you think of this player what do you think of that
Player is this guy good what’s he like can we coach him all that and I think with the Raiders giving 15 million guaranteed to Gardner muu made a huge statement in the sense that they weren’t interested because they could have easily gotten them for a draft pick a
Satur a Saturday draft pick so I think this is going to go on and I think what PS is trying to do is damage control now he’s trying to pretend that well we really haven’t done anything we’re still doing our due diligence look let me tell you something if you’re a general
Manager in the National Football League and you haven’t really done a lot of work on the quarterbacks and you know you need a quarterback what the hell have you been doing like what have you been doing like really like what what’s going on we’re still doing like he’s
Just trying to buy some time and I think ultimately I said this on the podcast I think Philadelphia would be a great they lost Marcus Mariota to Washington as a backup I I think Philly would be a great place for Herz to go and play to be the
Backup uh excuse me to play behind Herz Fields because I don’t see somebody saying to Justin Fields here’s a starting quarterback job I’ve said it for numerous months now and it’s proved to be true um my question for you about Justin fields and maybe being moved and
Not moved there’s no chance he’s still with the Bears next season I just think from a from a team building standpoint how do you play how do you do that right you draft this guy first overall you want to play him right away you know what happens and then I think ultimately
You know what are you going to increase the value you know you’re not picking up the fifth year option see this is the other problem with Fields training for him you’re not picking up the fifth year option and so you know there’s certain people that think he can be an MVP
Player but there’s people in the league that do the evaluation that don’t see that right they don’t see what other people are seeing and I think to me that’s the challenge and I think you got to clear the pathway for Caleb Williams who you draft to be the guy you got to
Start that right away because if you wait too long you know the contract all of a sudden you know you’re in the second year you don’t have time anymore media St just say a lot of dumb things and I apologize but this is just what we
Have been saying for a couple days that we are media Stooges Calvin Ridley we’ve been wondering why he hasn’t been signed and why he hasn’t gone anywhere then we read maybe on the internet somewhere that he wouldn’t have been able to be signed until the new league year because
Of something but couldn’t have just been deemed in the new league year with deals is have we been very stupid in saying when’s Calvin really going to sign when he was never going to be signed anywhere until the new league year because of what Jacksonville would had to deal with
Or are those signings happening all the time and it’s just being deemed in the new league year and we were right because I I soon as we read this we’re were like we are idiots that we’ve even been talking about this but I feel like that a lot of people have been talking
About this how do we get it all wrong yeah well here’s what I don’t understand I think you’ve been right because if the Jags are going to resign him and they’re going to pay him what he’s probably gonna get why did they sign Gabe Davis
Why did they sign Devon du like why are they signing all these other receivers like you know you know what are they doing you know they got Ingram who’s on the franchise tag they spent a lot of money on Christian Kirk they still have Z Jones there so like for me how many
Can you have it’s not a hockey team you’re not running lines out there so I thought to me it was a message that you’re sending that you’re sending you know that that you were not gonna get Ridley back and now he could have signed somewhere though Ridley could have
Signed like this could have he’s just what do we yeah I think that the way I read the terminology of that deal and I haven’t looked at this contract is if it’s only the trade effect if he signs back with Jacksonville so if he signs three days in the league year with
Jacksonville but I think Jacksonville’s allocated money you know that’s the problem with free agency if you don’t get money now you start taking visits now like you know we see Chase young taking a visit this guy’s T when you start taking visits that means you don’t
Have a market you don’t have a market I think Ridley has a market I know New England wants them yep I’d assume a lot of teams want them especially in this we need weapons time of the NFL with what Calvin Ridley has done and shout out to
Calvin Ridley by the way him back completely that’s good story great story we’re happy for him we’re pulling for him excited to see where he ends up he’s still a big name that is potentially available even though he allegedly wants to go back to the Jacksonville Jaguars
We can get another team in there take him out of the AFC South we can do that for sure uh debuts has a question uh for you about today’s big conversation that’s inevitably going to take place yeah out west the Chargers Harbaugh they got to get uh under under cap bcap
Compliant is there any world number one where they can keep those big name guys with those big contracts do some gymnastics and keep both and those MA and Allan and Williams all in the building or if not if you’re in that office who who who’s the who’s the
Short man out who’s the guy that’s left out well I I think to me every time you want a team that has cap trouble you look at who has high paragraph fives right that means their base salary so what happens is like what they did with
Pat Mahomes like what they did with Josh Allen like what a lot of teams do is they just guarantee the players paragraph five and it lowers their cap numbers significantly so the charg could go in and I’m sure Ed Maguire does a really good job at the Chargers and
Managing their cap I’m sure they know exactly what they’re going to do who they’re going to guarantee and what they’re going to do it it’s really no more money spent it’s just simply guarantee in the paragraph five which converts into signing bonus which then
Lowers the cap number so but for me I I think the one player who’s vulnerable and he’s a really good players Keenan Allen because but they signed Mike Williams last year and he’s the Home Run threat he’s the guy that changed the game Keenan Allen’s the guy that
Possesses the ball and keeps you going good player but if you’re going to get rid of one of those guys you’re probably looking there or you’re looking at khil Mack because of his age this idea they’re gonna cut Joey Bose is absurd I mean like nobody Joey BOS has got value
In the market I know he’s not been durable but he’s got tremendous value they’re not cutting a guy like that Keenan Allen I would assume same exactly he’s there every day he’s the blanket he’s the safety blanket for uh yeah he had an unbelievable Year Mike gets hurt a little bit Superstar healthy
Unbelievable absolute Superstar and they paid him for the Superstar moments but he has gotten injured big guys a little bit more susceptible to things happening especially on the outside fascinating situation over there in that division though yeah Lomo uh Jimmy G are we going
To see him in like the UFL or maybe the EF the European League of football of course new home of John Gruden do you think I was in a Super Bowl a couple years he was in Super Italian league like I’m insulted I didn’t get a call from League like that’s the Italian
League I can’t believe that I I bruden I believe is advising in the Seaman in Milan I think is the team they he’s uh the Seaman of thean are being advised by uh John guden that is news that broke last night G the B the B stay off the email you
Know we don’t the email over here you know that whole thing but Gruden knows Gruden knows ball that’ll never and the Seaman they love ball they know ball too no ball the Sean no ball better than anything in his they were birthed in the ball the seamen and now you know five
Time Champs five time Italian bow Champs well that’s what they do the Seaman find a way to win Italian Bowl too filled with meatballs and spaghetti when you get it just like the orange B they don’t have meatballs over there they don’t have meatballs balls are American thing
They don’t have meatballs over there yeah yeah that makes sense for sure that makes sense there’s no meatballs like a real right now I’m just the idea that there are zero meatballs your potatoes okay I mean potato they don’t you’re not it’s like lasagna you can only get lasagna like on
Holidays over there what you know it’s like yeah that’s right you can a cake it’s a cake it’s an actual pasta cake look I was in I went to see Springsteen in Florence and I stopped at I went to this restaurant twice and I said you

Schedule she took her 10 hours to make that lasagna they got Goa had distruct they definitely got Gaba go oh they got all that you know this guy no me boss of fish what have you been lied to about all the foods food propaganda I thought it was everywhere balls got pizza over
I hate to break the news here they don’t have par over there chicken parm they don’t cover everything in cheese a mistake sucks not having chicken parm is a massive mistake for the Boot Country Italian American food and then there’s Italian yeah but how come the Italians can’t be like you know
What yeah the Gringo did good good idea that’s actually a pretty good idea the chicken parm are you kidding me I love to see jei maralon over there take his take on chicken parmes they got pizza they got pizza now they have p Pizza don’t don’t don’t kid yourself they
Better Pizza Hut yeah good Lord is there Pizza Hut there not Pizza Hut don’t talking about there a pizza could oh my God oh my God Pizza Pizza is always good what do we even talking there should be one in the Coliseum are you kidding me look at
What they have done in the United States of America to our beautiful thing Pizza they’ve created a hut hut hut hut hut that has the greatest pizza every day all day all the time that’s right how’s the quality great Top Notch oh my God sorry they’re missing out they don’t
Have bread sticks and wings though do they I don’t think they got the Wing House no Wing Street no they definitely don’t The Wing Street anyways don’t try and get a pepperoni pizza either what beloved Italian American foods not found in Italy baked zii yeah got baked Z fre thank you thank
You Cesar salad I thought I was eating when I was eating Caesar salad they don’t have garlic bread are you me I’m never going now what are you talking about need to go go see it’s amazing this is unbelievable go open a pepperon you would not you would
Not miss an inch of it it’s so good here’s another thing like in Ireland I went to Ireland and they eat all fried food every day all day dogs they don’t have ranch dressing really if you were to take ranch dressing to Ireland it’s like I think you become a billionaire
King of the castle that’s all I thought for like four straight days I’m like is there any ranch or we we don’t have what their accent you no wonder they hated you they hated me over there they every restaurant you guys got R dress no we
Don’t they need it over there you need pepperoni pizza in Italy okay here’s a business plan boys going to have to go live in a boot for a little boot pepperoni pizza spaghetti with meatballs wait until you he wait till you hear this protein rep putting alongside the
Carbs on top of it you guys are going to love it and then in Ireland we’re opening a ranch Warehouse anyways is that where Jimmy G is going to be working next year like what do we think about Jimmy g i i well he’s going to serve I can’t imagine somebody after the
Two game suspension he’s going to get cut here in the league year starts right and I think all those guarantees get washed away I I because of the suspension so you know I’m sure he’ll be on some roster as a backup quarterback somewhere I mean look that now we’re in
The backup quarterback cycle a little bit here Mariota goes to uh to Washington you know jamus what the Jimmy jamus is in Cleveland you know which is interesting because they didn’t sign flacko back they went to you know I thought that was interesting they didn’t
Sign you know I don’t know you know he’s gonna be out there so it’ll be like Jimmy G they’re all out there it’s it’s what’s the like for example you keep you know like what does Chicago do are they’re gonna have to get a backup out
If they decide to trade Fields if they when they trade Fields all right we appreciate the hell out of you have an incredible day thank you for the time pal you too guys thanks a lot thank gzi Michael Lombardi hey Chuck Pagano figure it out yeah that that’s wow Italy doesn’t have Italian dressing then why is it called Italian dressing I’m putting on a call right now to the moraldo the julos Urus the pronos the master giaos you guys need to figure out how to
Get meatballs on Spaghetti back in the Homeland if you want to give back to Italy get the get pepperoni that serve meatballs They don’t serve it in the pasta It’s like a side dish to the pasta well that’s smart because you’re not supposed to put meatballs on a sub bun
And people do that so I’m happy that we have abused they definitely don’t do that in Italy well that’s cuz they got brains which is what we’re saying you guys need to give pepperon is more like they put like prute or gabo on top of
The P yeah they got to like spread out plus no garlic bread how do they stop vampires over there all right uh our one’s wrapping up here that is nuts great question great question best kind of bread they don’t have no the food’s so good you do not even notice what
You’re getting or what you’re not getting here here’s the BET here’s the thing about these Italians okay making their food it’s like good ingredients sure so like we love Pizza Hut yeah but boy the toilet knows we’re coming oh the toilet hears us talking about Pizza Hut
And it’s like okay what’s coming next John yeah toilet’s like preparing for Super Bowl when Pizza Hut’s coming in you know what I mean as it should in the locker room there’s Italian ones like you don’t feel as lighter yeah you don’t feel like you’re dropping a bomb I would
Assume that’s what the pasta everything is like over there 100% all of it’s fresh you can tell it’s fresh you can taste that it’s fresh and they just chill right too we’re taking two hours off in the afternoon they don’t work at all they don’t work at respectfully they
Don’t work at all it’s awesome they seem very very happy when’s the restaurant open I don’t know get off my ass you own the restaurant that’s all of Europe though like I went to Spain and they the entire country was off for a month like that was just how it was
What’s that CEST uh the afternoon it’s little siesta yeah it’s like expected at some places like hey not open till when 2 230 3 depending upon how good of a nap we all get here in the could be four depending upon the day it’s like where
Are you guys where am I do they live longer oh yeah oh yeah yeah a lot might be Hest saying that carboo diet when you get older helps keep you alive longer I heard I read something on the Internet not good well they’ve been trying to that yeah trying
To tote that for a while oh yeah they’re telling me I’m dying soon I’m like wait a minute I just read something a couple weeks ago where I’m living forever CU I’m smoking well yeah tell your heart that yeah yeah it’s coming right down the pipe I’m like wait a minute I thought
That was from the bacon I was eating yeah I didn’t know marijuana was killing me people without signs I just would like to let everybody know that we come from a point and a standpoint of it feels cuz Sports is starting to happen more and more and we or right in
The middle of it m stats are on everybody’s team somehow M and I don’t know how that works I would like us to you know we’re talking guard rails on the N I’d like us to start putting guard rails on stat usages in everything Sports every I would like us to start
Doing that because somehow some way somebody who is very qualified will say this with stats and then somebody who is equally as qualified whether you like it or not will come on the other side with a stat that’ll directly contradict what this one is in us stupid people how are
We we got numbers flying at us everywhere telling us we’re going to live we’re going to die this is right this is wrong you’re a hero you’re the worst it’s like how are we supposed to sort it out you’re supposed to go for it you’re not supposed to go for it let’s
Figure it out let’s put guard rails on stats it’s a good idea the community notes are awesome cuz like for instance yesterday I wouldn’t have known about Sydney Sweeney if there weren’t Community notes on the photo good our one’s wrapping up Community notes is getting a little

There seeing you know check yeah checking the PSE to how we feel about Canada do we hate Canada you just said we don’t answer is no hey let’s go can we’re we’re on TSN right now what’s that we’re on TSN right now of course we are the sports network is that what it’s
Called hell yeah they put the T for th in TSN I love that pretty good now we’re talking we’re now we’re talking uh joining us now is not a Canadian but an American who has the greatest jawline in the history of sports media he’s a college football national champion a
Super Bowl champion a Ridder Cup winner the all-time leading tackler for the Green Bay Packers ladies and gentlemen friend of future Vice President of the United States can you wait till I inro you AJ HW AJ HW how you doing okay what’s is everything okay I I don’t know
What’s going on man who’s going to be going to be the next VP I don’t know yeah he better promise me a spot Tom peliso reported via New York Times reporting that Robert F Kennedy Jr has recently approached Jets quarterback Aaron Rogers and Jesse de ventor about
Serving as his running M on an independent presidential campaign uh and both have welcomed the Arbiters and we did see a photo from last week or a couple weeks ago where Aaron and RFK Jr got high together not talking about drugs we talking about hiking a mountain
With a bunch of dogs I assume maybe a conversation or two happened while they’re out in the wilderness trying to avoid Mountain lines and such over there in California um AJ I I reached out to one of the persons involved in the story and uh I was told in Costa Rica just
Start getting a bunch of text messages out of nowhere I’m not 100% sure he Aaron maybe knew that this news was going to get announced on this particular day uh but I did not do any followup or get any more information from that I assume you know more when
Did he tell you he was going to be vice president of United States of America and what were your follow-ups to that entire situation whenever you found out which we assume months ago AJ knew about course no I I had no idea and if he did
Actually tell me that he was gonna you know thinking about making a run for the VP I probably would not even have any follow-ups I’d say okay yep sounds about right for you know what we’ve been doing what youve been doing it’s not like a
It’s not a that’s not a bad thing I’m just saying like what nothing would surprise me right now yeah I think I think we all kind of feel the same way like when we read it we of course of course be sweet if you did it both
Though why not do it do it while you’re leading the Jets back to Victory that’d be pretty cool well that’s the thing the Jets fans all see this and they go got to focus on Ball but we got four plays last year that’s what they’re all
We got four plays last year they were told the punt the entire season remember Joe Douglas really didn’t do much solah didn’t really do much they were trying they were trying their best but you know the whole season was basically like yeah you’re going to have to wait till next
Year all those happiness and emotions and feelings you’re having coming into this year for the first year with a real chance need you to bottle that okay put that bottle into the fridge let that thing get I cold and then go ahead and grab it for next season cuz we’re
Punting on this one and then all of a sudden you guys going to run for vice president United States of America what we I thought we were going to do this entire thing in your eyes and I let off the show saying like I have no
Information I do I’ve not been told this doesn’t seem like a reality but maybe is that how you feel as well I mean it does not feel like a reality at all but they never said anything that Aaron said he said he would he what he welcomed the
Overture yeah so I think what they if they want me to be a VP I’ll say yeah sounds good man give me a text give me a call let’s see it whatever happens that’s how you’re saying that’s that’s what I’m saying it could have gone hey
What if I picked you to run for my VP okay cool man yeah let me know that’d be crazy cool yeah yeah hit me up man welcomed overtures I guess the opposite of that would be stop yeah sure don’t you even yeah the way it was phrased is
Interesting we’ll try to out we will try to find out and if it’s not us it’ll be somebody but like obviously this is just another uh Jets fans this is what it’s like yeah you know everything Aaron does every conversation he has on a hike is
Going to get it’s going to get and it’s going to get blown out of proportion and Aaron is literally in a jungle somewhere and has no IDE like that is that’s how this goes from my understanding with Aaron over the last four years you probably know a little bit more I mean
You’re not saying that’s like a great roll out for announcing your VP candidate if he he doesn’t even know and he’s in another country all right all right AJ can’t take anything serious that you say and when AJ’s doing this he knows more information ex this is him
Deflecting we will continue to try to Pepper him now we got to Pivot away from that because we have a CMA Entertainer of the Year joining us we have a CMA single of the Year reigning defending current champion we have a man who went up on stage alongside Tracy Chapman and
Stole the entire gramys how you doing giving out Awards to people sweet we’re going to have a performance that’s going to be so amazing everybody on Earth is going to talk about it die hard appstate Mountaineer fan Die Hard Carolina Panther fan and a man if he comes to
Your town with a tour kicking off in about a month or so you should go see because he’s a showman yeah he is a showman taking his trash to the dump earlier now talking about a dump of a franchise Carolina Panthers ladies and gentlemen Luke
Comes you are hey uh how are you I’m great man I apologize for saying there at the end the dump of a franchise Carolina Panthers because that is a team that you are a fan of and uh yeah yeah your your Tweet the other day seemed
Like there was a little bit of passion behind this you know a man who’s in the middle of a country music career that people dream of selling out stadiums we’re not talking about theaters we’re not talking about Arenas we’re talking about stadiums so can take the high road
Just kind of hey good to see you guys see you out could do that instead looks at his football team that he’s been a fan of since he was a kid growing up in North Carolina and goes what are we what are we what are we doing going on is
There a plan in place at all for any of this new GM new head coach how do you feel about the state of the Panthers and I think you’re speaking for a lot of panthers fans whenever you’re tweeting something like that out Luke yeah it’s tough man it really is honestly you know
I saw that picture on the screen and God those were good days man the dab was those were good times you know what I mean Keeley those were good times you know feel like a century ago man we’re uh yeah it’s tough right now what do you
Think what do you think though how long is this going to happen we got we got Canalis in there he did go with Tampa down Baker Morgan he didn’t blink his whole press conference the guy didn’t blink one time super football guy this is good news right Luke here we go we’re
Back to being Optimist I don’t know man it’s like I I I I’m you know I obviously I don’t know Dave at all you know I’m sure he’s an awesome guy but I don’t get the hype behind hiring the offensive coordinator for the 20th best off in the
League you know what I mean I mean that’s just I mean to be completely honest you know what I mean like what are we talking about here there there’s 20 other guys that are doing I I just don’t know you know what I mean I don’t know what the answer is
And if there’s if there’s some big plan I certainly don’t understand it I’ll tell you that much okay Luke well I’m Hing I’m hoping that Morgan and Mr 20 out of 32 that’s right you know is uh will be able to earn your appreciation on Panthers fans cuz I think it’s all
You’re kind of hoping for go ahead AJ uh have you been able to uh to meet the owner David terer and have any interactions with him and do you have faith that this guy’s gonna kind of get you guys going in the right direction I haven’t uh I met him very very briefly
Um actually did my fantasy football draft a few years ago in the Panther Stadium as interesting uh as that is me and me and my best buddies did a uh did a combine of our own to determine draft order if you can imagine how how’d you
Do how’ you do that was oh terrible second to last pick dude I’m not not a speed guy you know you can probably tell mean bench yeah did you bench yeah no bench there was no bench it was like flip cup you know those kind of it’s more more of that
Stuff wasn’t any Fe of strength you know what I mean yeah yeah we understand how are you a flip CER one one you you play guitar well so I assume you was I went second so it was interesting that my my buddy Reed went first and he’s a a
Decently athletic cat and he came in last so it’s kind of like like the person that went first did the worst and then I did the next worst and then I don’t know if it if it uh went all the way up the chain like that but it seemed like everybody else kind
Of figured the program out after they watched us fail at it a bunch of times Well I like that I like that uh you offered to go second seemingly is what I’m hearing that’s I think it was I think it was random I would would have definitely went last if I could have
Yeah smart okay Luke I I I appreciate that move that’s the right move in this whole thing I assume there is where you met terer briefly because what we know of terer is uh at his previous job he uh he had a guy who was a manager or
Something of him and he wanted a race and that guy said you don’t deserve a race David terer and David this might not be the real story but who knows David terer say oh yeah and goes starts his own company and then company gets bigger buys this guy’s house tears this
Guy’s house down completely just tears it down completely builds a bigger house in place of that guy’s house and I don’t even think he lives in it then goes to the Carolina Panthers he uh he owns the soccer team as well he has fired like 10
Coaches in two and a half years whenever you uh when you combine I don’t know if that’s the accurate number but you get it for the for the story of this thing he seems to be a guy that wants to win right doesn’t it feel like that is what
It is with with his moves but do you think he is a guy that can and when do you think you’ll talk to him and be like T let’s go we gota we got to get into into a better spot here whenever we’re talking about the way we’re running the
Carolina Panthers yeah I don’t know you know I mean his ability to get it done I mean it it’s it hadn’t happened yet for sure um so you know and I mean you know I’m he’s obviously a a shrewd businessman um but I’m a I’m a great musician and I’m
Not I’m not a football coach you know what I mean uh I mean that’s just the way it is I’m great at doing music but I ain’t at the combine telling you who to draft you know what I mean I just it ain’t happen
Yeah you know I mean you can be good at one thing don’t mean you’re good at something else I mean that’s the way you know and I think as a fan I think we all you know I mean throwing drinks on the fans in Jacksonville ain’t a hot look
Dude you know what I mean a good look you know what I mean and it’s like he he’s probably trying to buy my house right he’s probably going to try to buy my house right now he could I would be glad to sell it to but you know I just
Think it’s kind of like it feels like we’re the worst franchise in all of professional sports right now it’s really hard it’s really hard to to to deal with that you know what I mean it’s gonna get better Luke y keeping hey it can’t get any worse dude can’t worse
Just wait well you know this been happening to you for your whole life it could get worse could get worse there was only like a 100 people at the last home game last year you know it was like a completely empty stadium and we’ve heard your words before diamond rings and football
Teamy you talk about the Panthers there huh that’s what you’re talking about yeah for sure for sure are we in the middle it’s tough man I grew up charl you know I grew up in Charlotte I love you know I was I mean I was meeting Sam
Mills at Burger King when I was 5 years old you know first season that we were you know a team so I mean it’s a literally to say born into being a fan of this team is pretty pretty close you know what I mean it may be almost more
Than more than that right because they became a team that’s some of my first memories right are going to Panthers games watching Panthers games with my dad um you know I mean I cried when Brady beat us in the Super Bowl I was probably 10 years old 11 years old or
Something just brutalized this you know stay up past my bedtime Casey kicks it out of bounds oh whoa yeah we booed that that was brutal no reason break kicker no reason for that I mean I understand it’s part of the story but like kickers yeah yeah yeah yeah I get it yeah well
Yeah I appre I appreciate that you’re a football guy and that you have the ability to create the music that you do are we in the middle of pro are we writing anything right now what are we doing right now where are we at in life because obviously life’s at a different
Point we got we got we got family now we’re uh we’re taking the dump our trash out to the dump our football team sucks football sucks oh oh App State oh there you go 12 team playoff we got a shot right that’s what we’re looking for I don’t know I don’t know about
Right now um but man I yeah I love app there uh we talked a little bit earlier and uh I was like yeah you know uh I don’t think you know app’s gonna be contending for the national championship anytime soon but maybe one day they’ll
Get the 12 team playoff and get beat by 60 and you laughed because you thought 60 wasn’t points for yeah that’s well be fair I mean that is a fair observation for things that have happened in these big games look what Georgia did TCU we were there George we were there in
Person rainning in LA rainning on us while the blowouts happening Georgia has their sixth stringers in six stringers in on offense and defense walking right down the field and getting three and outs the other way let alone what Georgia just did to Florida state in the last B
Florida state had a lot of studs that didn’t play I get that and understand but they won by 6 60 point spread is very it’s a normal but it’s a yeah could you imagine AB state gets in there and loses by 90 I could actually I could
Imagine that or App State blocks a field goal I was just about to to praise airbrush t-shirt over there for his speech he gave at JMU oh thank you very much that was man what a moment that was a moment hey why did you do that cuz you
Love AB State because you love Luke Holmes definitely because I love AB State more so because I just wanted everyone to yell you at me because the Vibes were too good you know I need to let them know it’s not going to be like this all right well Abate AB State makes
The 12 team playoff in the next 10 years Carolina Panthers Morgan and Canales he goes from 20 to one with Bryce young things are looking up let’s write a couple songs about I’m a big I’m a big Dan Morgan guy by the way he’s like he’s
A top 10 Panther for me all time top 10 all time Panther let’s go let’s go yeah yeah Big Damn organ guy okay this is good things are looking up Ty has a question for you Luke yeah Luke Pat just mentioned it what about Bryce young if
You had to guess like what the kind of fan base thinks of him where would you put uh him at right now and also how tough is it uh kind of just comparing him to CJ strad considering what he just did knowing you guys could have taken CJ
Strad like are people still all in on uh Bryce Young and the fact that you know people were calling him like the Steph Curry of the NFL or is that kind of washed away with how abysmal uh the Panthers were last year I mean I don’t think that we know right I mean
Obviously the comparison game you know make you want to jump off of a bridge right at the moment you know I mean comparison game’s brutal you can’t even get into that because I mean we just had what the best rookie season of all all all the history in the history of the
NFL history of the NFL so that hurts for sure oops on that big oops there miss opportunity but I don’t think that you can really discern anything about Bryce at this point I mean he was behind a really brutal offensive line I mean the guy couldn’t even I me have a half a
Second to throw the ball the entire season I mean he had what two coaches in his first year so that’s that’s great you know talk about set up for Success there I think the guy I mean I think the guy deserves a I I I think that you know
I’ve always loved the Green Bay system right I’ve loved the I loved the Rogers comes in behind Favre I love the love comes in behind Rogers why is nobody else doing that obviously it because we all attack them we all attack them immed fans attack we attack him fans attack
Them and then here they are sitting four years later and Jordan love is like a much different quarterback than he was when he came the NFL yeah but I don’t attack I wouldn’t attack anyone if we had if we had a plan that made sense right like you can’t bring this guy
Into at at the time I mean obviously you one of the worst the fourth worst team in the NFL at that point because we had what the fourth pick and we came up to get number one right threw all of our picks away to do that and so I think you
You need to draft a guy that can sit for a few years I mean that’s what used to happen like expecting somebody to come in and be the best guy in the league in the first year is just it’s never going happen yeah I think the Panthers were
Like seven or eight but nonetheless story remains this past season you got earned number one overall absolutely earned it there’s no patience though there’s no patience in the NFL for anybody at any time I think social media is a reason obviously because you hear from the fans more likely and I think
Fans are more likely to take action against teams like not show up that maybe in the past kind of do things so now it’s like a sense of urgency is it the same in the music world like do you think like if you didn’t hit early you’re done
Is that it no way man I mean music music is like it you you you have it I mean look at Chris Stapleton Chris Stapleton is the prime example I mean he had been in Nashville for years and years he had 250 Cuts as a songwriter I mean you know
I mean obviously he’s one of the best singers of ever you know so that helps a lot too but him having getting to have that moment with Timberlake on the CMAs I mean that changed that changed our entire genre I mean that kicked open
The door for a guy like me to be able to have success too so it it doesn’t have to be you know and Cris but but that the difference is like CH Chris was so good at that time but it does remind me of the Jordan love thing right like he
Comes in he got to watch somebody that’s great be great and learn from him every day for years and years and you know they go up to Green Bay and hide away from the media which I really love that aspect of and I wish I was a Packers fan
Because it just feels like they do so many things they do so many things right in the sense of you go up there you’re out of the hype there’s no nightclubs going on up there there’s no there’s no there’s nothing to be distracted by I’m
I’m sure AJ could talk a lot more yeah I was say AJ what places do you used to go you told us about that one adult ballot there’s a place called The Oval Office that guys would frequent after games every once in a while we know the on
Casino is very famous talked about all the time on here yeah but you like the way Green Bay Packers operate and I think gun is the new GM like one year ago I’m doofus outside looking in and I’m a part of the problem we’re a part of the problem with the patience thing
Like this team stinks cuz we have to say like if a team stinks they do stink their fans get loud like a year ago I think I’m I speak alongside a lot of Packers fans this is his first entire team like right here this is his team
Pretty much move Aaron out bakari out like all the ogs are out this is his team so I was like is this guy just going to be able to do what all the Packers have done from the past like that have been in the building for the
Last he did he they figured they haven’t figured out I mean they got a whole team reloaded back in the conversation and then there’s like the Colts we haven’t won AFC South in like 10 years CJ St told us Panthers I feel like it’s probably felt for you like 30 years some
Teams just got it some teams don’t we’re going to turn it around though Luke we’re you and I Colts and the Panthers going to turn this thing around now I will say there’s some uh there’s some chat on internet right now happening Luke about you uh oh and look when
You’re on top of the mountain Luke you know that a lot of chatter about you lot of chatter about you y the atanta Falcons posted a photo of you wearing uh Falcons jersey on stage which I think you’re probably just doing to say thanks to the local community for coming out
Supporting you and of course this particular picture I think has been weaponized against you not only from Falcons fans but some Panthers fans say I’ll never be caught de Ina Falcons jersey whenever they’re talking about it can you I just would like to offer a platform for you to kind of give your
Side in your take on this thing as the Falcons were certainly trying oh yeah out here toig to not only get you into their fandom but also say hey what’s going on over there in Carolina I think so if you would like to use this time to
Address all this I would love to I yeah yeah of course Flor GE yeah um there’s actually uh I’m sure there’s a picture of me wearing a buck hat I played in Tampa Bay last year as well that particular picture I believe is from uh
2019 at a show called ATL live that I played with Eric Church uh and I actually lost a bet to my keys player at the time who was a Falcons fan bet on the Panthers Falcons game so nobody can question my fandom I we lost the game I
I wore my you know wore the Falcons jersey out there like I was supposed to so weaponize it all you want I sat with Arthur Blank at the Super Bowl this year so um you know Panthers didn’t invite me to go to the Super Bowl I you hey also all these stadiums
That you’re selling out now you’re in business with NFL owners this guy’s doing business with NFL owners now at this particular point where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers had saying hey thank you to the Tampa folks but you’re saying all you people attacking me for wearing this Falcons jersey the problem is this oh
The Panthers lost to the Falcons again so all these things need to go right back to the Carolina Panthers and I appreciate you addressing that AJ’s got a question for you big dog L going back to your uh to songw writing how do you how did you learn to become such a great
Songwriter is it hanging out with other great writers learning from them like what’s the process is it smoking weed what drinking drinking beers is it a long cold be is that what it is what is it it’s uh I mean those things can help at times uh I think really you know I
Think it’s like anything right if you want to be great um you know there’s a lot of people that write by themselves and and nothing against that but I try to lean on the people that are around me um I really I really spend a lot of time
Writing with people who um mean a lot to me you know that I have personal friendships with and um have developed relationships with just outside of you know we’re it’s not just a working relationship right we’re friends you know um we can get together and write a
Song or we can get together and go fishing or ride around or go turkey hunting or go to a football game or you watch football whatever it may be it doesn’t have to be you know I think to me that’s important right I mean I think
If you you know I think AJ you probably speak to this pad as well but if you have relationships with your teammates outside of outside of the field that makes that makes what you do on the field that much better and I I I believe that music is
That way too so whenever you’re doing this writing process in amen by the way with camaraderie that’s an X Factor that we talk about with teams in the NFL it’s like hey this team likes each other we’ll get videos from practices like warm-ups and everybody’s dancing together it’s like hey this team likes
Each other hug yeah big deal in our world whenever we were looking at that and now do you like each other cuz you’re winning maybe it’s a lot easier to get but investing in each other and in relationships that you can’t measure that with a stats and analytic whenever
You’re writing these songs cuz I think it was uh one of Kenny chesne songs or albums that I listen to I was like this is good and the the way the angle in which the songs are being sung was like feels like this person is singing a song
Directly to me like in this exact moment of my life then it won an award and I saw 30 people come up on the stage that wrote the thing and I’m like well whose brain Who Am I who am I relating to is my what is it like is somebody writing
Like one word at a time how does this you know like CU we hear about these writing sessions in Nashville where there’s like 30 people and that’s that show song Land I tried to learn as much as possible about the process because I love music love the whole behind the
Scenes thing how do this writing thing happen like one person’s a lead writer and then there’s like punch-up writers or is like is it literally like line for line word for word how does that country music world work and for you how does it work normally yeah I mean country music
You know at least in in my experience right is I this is my 10th year here and probably my 12th or 13th year doing music um I guess you could say professionally that’s a weird word to use um doesn’t feel very professional but um getting paid to do music 13 13 or
So years my hey hell yeah hell yeah congratulations but I think you know Nashville is right there are are companies that that pay people to write songs right that’s their job every day and you know we call them kind of lunch pail songwriters right like you wake up
In the morning kiss your wife or your husband or whoever goodbye get your lunch P drive into town write to you a song you’re home by five o’clock in the evening and there’s people doing that five days a week um not nearly as many as there used to be um because uh you
Know songwriters are kind of the U forgotten people of of our industry which is a shame because they’re really the heartbeat of our industry um and so um in today’s day and age the the streaming era has really limited um you know what a songwriter can make um even
Songwriters that have the biggest careers you could imagine um you know to some extent struggling these days but um that’s a conversation for a longer time but anyway no that’s that’s the part of the music industry that’s a problem right I hear a lot of music people
Talking about that like the way the streaming gets kind of I don’t want to say cucked but like kind of cucked a lot of the talent because the way the deals have been kind of structured thus far and the precedent that’s been set I think there’s a lot of artists and I
Guess songr I didn’t even think about the hey that’s all me that’s all me hand up that’s all me hand up bad guy but song right the whole the whole thing’s kind of being affected as it’s all changing is that what you’re saying yeah it’s it really is right you know I think
Um you know if you’re you know this is probably you know people are going to probably destroy my my math on this um but you know back in let’s say you were writing country songs in the 90s right and you get you wrote a song that was on
You know Shai one of shanai Twain’s records that sold 25 million copies right sh 25 million physical units right and let’s say you wrote a song that that even didn’t even make it to radio was just on the record right so those those album that album sale would generate 10
Cents per album sale for the songwriter per per song that’s generating 10 cents per album sale right so if one person wrote a song on that album by themselves and it made 10 cents every time that record sold you’re looking at$ two and a half million dollars for writing a song
That was never on the radio your math is mine too so we’re both getting crushed okay but let’s say you even if you wrote it with three other people if you wrote it with three people total so then you’re splitting that what’s that’s a little under a million dollars a piece
Piece right which is a lot 750 Grand 800 Grand a piece or something somewhere around there in that ballpark and that’s for writing one song on one album that wasn’t even played on the radio now if you were to get it on the radio you’re talking exponentially higher than even
That right because that’s a per play on the radio basis well nowadays right so a physical album sale equates to 1,500 streams so how many how many artist songs Have you listened to 1500 times I listen a long that ice cold beer for sure some Jeezy songs probably I’ve gotten 1500 times a
Couple I Like it Loud I Like it Loud Play it every day, is a lot how many years is that if you listen one song 365 about four and a half years every day it’s a long time it’s a lot so and it stream listen streaming is incredible
It’s an incredible thing because you have every song that you ever could want at your fingertips you know what I mean and that’s what it allows it allows me to have a career at this point right because it allows anyone to get their music heard without there being some
Sort of of someone being a a gatekeeper right for the industry there’s not someone going well you only hear the music that we you know let you here or what that doesn’t exist anymore with the power of social media the ability to distribute your own music I mean it’s
Changed the music industry for the better a lot but like anything there’s so many different things and and as technology changes so rapidly you know our ability to keep up with it uh whether that be royalty rates or laws is just not quite there yet and that’s something that Nashville has really led
The way in fighting for the the the songwriters which are the heart of you know all of your favorite music when you saw that Kenny chzn song or album win that award all of those people do write songs every day and that may be the biggest moment of their career and it
May have only made them $600 you know damn I tried my best I listened to a couple of those 1500 times 1400 I tried my best a couple of those songs how do we help then Live Events right shows go to shows that’s how we help the artists and everything like
That in the world that’s how we support the Luke combes and the songwriters is going to live shows yeah I mean I I mean I don’t know about the songwriters I mean that helps me up a whole bunch for sure the songwriters is the songwriters is
More difficult you know what I mean the song helping the songwriters is more difficult and it’s a long process it takes you know it takes litigation and a lot of people who are a whole lot smarter than me but um I’m definitely here to be an advocate for them for sure
Because none of us would be able to do what we do I certainly wouldn’t um without the help of those guys and um they’re really the backbone of of our industry right they’re the bluecollar worker of the music business hey let’s get these songwriters taken care of hey
Smart people figure it out we say that a lot we say that on this show a lot we say hey smart people figure it out because we don’t have the answers now people are saying we’re adding to the problem whenever we don’t when we put I don’t think that’s the case I think
We’re calling to action hey smart people figure it out add the songwriters to the list last question here comes from Darius J Butler about your Carolina Panthers go yeah I know it’s kind of Doom and Gloom right now I want to take you back to some some happier times you
Mentioned Sam Sam Mills rest in peace uh keep pounding but um got to get you while you’re on here what is what are your top five Panthers of all time obviously a lot of great Panthers you got cam you got Steve Smith ol Ryan khil so many great TD so many great names
Who’s on that top five list for you Frank Reich um Frank re got Mills has gota be in there for sure um pep is in there no doubt Steve Smith is in there for sure dog um I mean mus muhamd Ricky PR Keeley this is the math this is the math
Brian bur no cam yeah Kevin green yeah you know um I mean dude there’s a lot man I mean every era I could have a top five from every era cam cam is obviously Absolut cam is I mean cam is the guy dude I mean he’s the guy
You know I mean like the excitement he brought to that City that team to me as a fan I imagine there was you know however many Panthers fans there are every single one of them was exhilarated and you know it all was brought on by what cam brought to onto the field you

Chatted with you know maybe in person they get on and it’s like completely different person yeah and you go like what happened out there hey what Happ turn into a politician sometimes kind kind of like Aaron kind of like well he’s turning into a politician actually
Excuse me good to know too AJ New Age I’m glad AJ told us he used to hang out at the Oval Office I mean that’s great news yeah that’s the name of the bar that Aaron and all the Green Bay Packers used to go to is this is this Aaron’s
Dream to potentially end up in office and that’s why they used to go to that bar to mention he realiz I don’t know if it’s much of a bar just you know what is it more of what do you call them Pat gentleman’s adult ballet yeah it was
It was much more of that than I think the bar or the eating what do you call him man I ran through my head about a lot of things that I’ve called things I’m like boy I don’t know where he’s at right adult ballet adult ballet okay
Good well I’m happy to hear that you know there’s a good dancing Community out there in Green Bay and the Casino obviously is fantastic uh joining us now is a man who we are 11 minutes late for uhoh oh no uhoh we tried oh no no this isn’t going to be
Good make it a cool 12 or Hall of Famer y Champion one of Pittsburgh’s greatest exports yeah yeah ladies and gentlemen Coach B Yeah hey guys how you doing how you doing hey so you know what I saw I was waiting on Luke comes and you know my wife is a songwriter and singer as well so letting him talk about his pain of Carolina but also the process of writing
Songs I was enjoying that very much so feel free to stay on and let me be wait another five minutes I I am happy I am happy we got that messaging out as well you know I’m happy yeah we were a platform for that
Uh as it was happening I want to let you know as it was happening back of my mind is like not again coach Bill cow’s gonna be like what time is this 1:30 meeting supposed to start yeah yeah yeah exactly you know that’s fine I I would Luke
Colmes if he was late he’d have been sitting outside the door door shut and asked me about the meeting I said ask one of your teammates who was at the meeting on time and then you’re getting fin as well uh coach we appreciate you waiting around and uh no yes you’re not
A man that should ever wait but every time we get a chance chat with you it feels like we get motivated inspired and pumped up let’s start right there in Carolina because we’re talking to Luke he seems to be ding out should we just what are your thoughts on because
Obviously you’re down there close NC State wolf pack Hall of Famer I believe and alumni obviously your story huge down there in Carolina even though you’re a Pittsburgh guy whenever you think about that Panthers team what do you think we should be expecting if you’re a Luke comes or one of their 125
Fans right well yeah5 so Dan Morgan came in right Dave canal comes up I think for Dave you know it’s kind of okay let’s let’s kind of start from Ground Zero I mean I don’t understand the burns trade to be quite honest with you I think he’s got to identify leadership in that
Locker room and the girl you had on yesterday the the the the beat writer down there you asked that question who who they building around there is no leader in that locker room so they got to identify who that is going to be who they can build that kind of culture with
And so you know I feel bad for Bryce young at this point I think gr the thing they can do right now now they a signed offensive lineman you know what run the football that to me is one thing they have to do right now is run the football
AJ go ahead pal coach if you were uh let’s say you were coaching the Panthers right now and you went to your first like offseason meeting say in April for OTAs what do you what do you tell the team like what do you what do you present like give them some
Hope he’s thinking yep OJ if you don’t move people think it’s just their TVs well no they won’t okay I yeah yeah yeah hey we’re back baby hey I don’t know if you heard the question if you’re the coach of the Panthers though what are you saying in that first meeting again
AJ’s eyes move too I should have blinked so hard so hard I chose to do that with my eye open yep yeah next time need to do that with eyes closed know yeah that’s the that’s the that’s the whole thought there you know that is the role
Of the dice whenever you’re dealing with internet no internet you know what a part is some people like to exit their house MH and when you exit your house you’re still on a house internet and then you’re on service on the outside there’s always like an uncomfortable moment there where our smart smartphones
Are allegedly more intelligent than they’ve ever been but they just can’t figure out a smooth transition from House Wi-Fi that ends about uh 10 15t 20 ft outside your house depending upon what internet you have and then just sell service outside of that the handoff is always horrendous it is and everybody
Deals with it you go it’s 73 degrees I’m going go outside take a walk you take a walk all of a sudden it over yep done and wait wait what I can see can you see me you can’t and then we’re back and then the other side think oh that must
Be mine m no no no no you got to you got to do the full explanation oh I just want to the whole yeah coach you got to get the uh Verizon home internet you’re right that issue Verizon is yeah Verizon also a couple weeks ago there was an A
Or two there were lot of lot of lot of uh about four of them but not but not what at& had the worst yeah but Verizon still Nails didn’t even know what happened nope I was like what’s everybody bitching about and I I had no idea cuz Verizon was the
Only one that didn’t shout out to Verizon way you go that was an EMP test uh so be on the lookout okay see we don’t need to get down that road we we launched a political campaign potentially but nonetheless joining us back I believe in ladies and
Gentlemen hey I I know how to adapt and adjust I’m good well that’s what adversity is all about that’s why it’s there for for you to get better and look at you you just got a chance to Showcase that technology although it’s very modern you’re an old school guy you can
Conquer it if you just put your mind to it no question about it just tell me my right resources a little bit of direction I’m good hey speaking of uh Direction what direction would you go if you’re a Canalis doing his first team meeting whenever you go into OTAs there
To tell that talk to that Squad so I think the biggest thing I said Pat was I think right now with what they’re doing you get offensive lineman is they got to establish the running game and run the ball take the pressure off of Bryce I thought lean on the defensive side of
The ball also and that’s where I was kind of confused with Brian Burns being traded so I think you got to go back right now is I get concern in a second year for Bryce young is him losing confidence and I think that’s the biggest thing to me is getting back to
Run the football something I think they should have been doing more of I think they start doing more of that for Pittsburgh with Kenny picket for young quarterbacks got like CJ stoud comes along you know he was able to process information and adjust to the speed of
The game very quickly but that’s all there he’s the exception not the rule okay I agree I think a lot of people are going to think that they’re going to do a Houston Texans turnaround and that is uh certainly possible we are we just witnessed it but there’s a lot of brains
And Personalities in that building that are able to change the culture quickly speaking of doing that let’s go to ton digs in Pittsburgh yeah coach uh let’s talk about what the what the offseason it’s been one of the more exciting offseasons uh in Pittsburgh in a long
Time obviously they bring in Russ Wilson they bring in Arthur Smith who I assume you’re happy with because you just mentioned they should have ran the ball more with for for Kenny picket um what are your thoughts on on bringing in Russ Wilson and what they’ve done so far and
Then on the other side what does it say about Russ Wilson that the Broncos were okay with taking on an $85 million dead cap to just part ways with him yeah I mean that’s uh that’s a lot I mean obviously they inherited Russell both ownership and the coach and Sean um
I thought Russell played very well last year I think the year before he was embarrassed by how he played I think the whole situation there was one where he had to kind of recapture his confidence identi I a very good job that is um he’s his DNA is running
The football that’s what pittsburghers want to hear they have vagi Harris Jen war and at offensive line I think putting Kenny picket and you put Russell Wilson under the center they both are great roll out pack passers in a play action game they they you don’t have to
Change Styles and I think it’s going to be a very healthy compet comption that they have one’s at the beginning of his career the other’s at the latter end of his career I’m sure that conversation was had with Mike very early in that sitation listen you got a
Window of time right now with TJ watt cam Hayward MK Fitz Packer you got some great defensive players and I think it’ be a disservice not to make sure you take care of the other side of the ball to maybe try to bring this unit together
And get one a run that they can make it’s a tough division but I like what they did I love hearing you talk about Carolina with Bryce young like hey let’s run the ball Pittsburgh people are thinking the same thing with Russ hey let’s run the ball let’s we got a great
Defense let’s run the ball in Pittsburgh mostly because of you and also I guess a no before you it’s like Pittsburgh fans like being a physical football team Pittsburgh fans like when the defense is smothering they like whenever the offense is controlling the line of scrimmage not every city necessarily
Wants that Pittsburgh wants to be the more physical team I think that is a real thing don’t you absolutely and I think if you look at the four teams that were in the final four of of the NFL last year I think you talk about the running back talking about earlier the
Market and all these guys got picked up what what Isaiah pcho did what Christian mcaffrey did these were two guys that were two dominant players on their respective sides jir Gibbs in Detroit uh Gus BR in Edwards and in Baltimore and they’re all all four of these teams you
Know Kansas City got right when they started running the football and have more balance in their offense and I think that you saw with all four of those teams the running game being an integral part of their offenses it helps the defense it helps offensive lineman develop
Because you take the pressure off of them now having to pass block every down so I’m a big believer listen I’m all for passing the ball we were one of the teams that spread it out and we had you know Cordell Stewart playing receiver we have five receivers out there but I know
One thing there’s a mentality that you have when you know you can close a game and there’s a physicality that you can apply that you know you’re more physical than a team that that you’re playing against I always said you throw early to run late God you see he started getting into
It yeah yeah started getting jacked up coach we started getting really I did I did yeah yeah yeah yeah so so do we I want to let you know that as we’re running into a heart out here in about a minute and a half although the show will
Continue on YouTube in ESPN plus Darius J Butler has a question for you coach yeah coach I want to ask you uh how hey what’s up good to see you how uh how tough is it going to the draft we obviously in the draft period right now
What positions do you feel are the toughest in today’s NFL to kind of project to that next level I know the Steelers over the past you know decade or so they always knock it out of the part with receivers seems like they haven’t found a in a while what are
Those toughest positions right now to our project that next level when you’re at this time of year as a coach I think the quarterback position is the toughest one because of the process of information but I also think when you look at the corner position Darius and
You know as well as I do the speed of the game how open the game is uh the receivers and how big they are how fast they are to acclimate to that and you know and just the efficia that you have to be able to acclimate too I think for
Offensive linemen I think it’s a very deep year this year and that’s why you don’t see as many offensive linemen going in free ages see and that’s why I think what you’re going to see is a lot of offensive linemen going early and if you’re going to get take a defensive
Back do what the Chiefs did they drafted about two or three of them and just threw them right into the lineup and said you know what you’re gonna be able to play manto Man early The Zone will come as you get that understanding of the game the zones get a little tighter
So I just think throwing playing these guys early helps develop the team and all a sudden you saw what the Kansas City Chiefs have done they’ve been a model for playing guys early on defensive side of the ball and you can see what’s resulted in the last couple
Years that was phenom phenomenal work we got 8 seconds until the heart out you knew it you had the shot clock in I knew we’ll see you tomorrow see you later take care on ESPN news I’ll be back no I didn’t leave you I didn’t leave you time
You missed it you missed the last one that’s on me not on you we’re continue YouTube ESPN plus and Tik Tok which yeah not for long there topic of conversation everywhere coach I don’t know how in the know you are there’s a there’s a Tik Tok chatter happening Aaron Rogers maybe
Going to be Vice President of the United States of America I heard I heard I heard that about Aram that’s awesome yes it is coach it’s a wild time to be alive right now that it is it’s awesome okay yeah you’re right it is awesome go yeah everything’s
Awesome uh we’ll just continue to keep it moving the time of being uh the time frame right now like Georgia has their Pro Day happening today I think the big story out of there lad mononi will he be able to back up what he ran at the
Combine 4-3 whatever will he be able to run routes how’s he catching I think everybody already knows seemingly at this point but con man’s got a question for you about it all yeah coach it feels like now at the pro days especially with you know everything being rehearsed that
It’s hard to actually find real things when these guys are you know making their deep balls running their routes everything like that uh is it you know what are they looking for at these prod days coaches specifically and Scouts too that they can’t find like on tape that
They already have back at the facility how they’re viewed upon by their teammates the guys that they’re working with um you can kind of see the presence they have and for me the first place I’d go is right into the training room talk to the strength coach I want to talk to these
Coaches in person I mean they give you the thing when you go to their place there’s a little bit of the kind of the Guard gets dropped a little bit because they be feel comfortable so I just want to know about this guy more what he does
Off the field um what kind of work ethic does he really have um cany guy play with injuries or get a little bit of Nicks is he okay with that um and just talking to some of the position coaches I want to see his interaction with the other players and particularly as he
Goes through his his workout okay whenever you’re there what type of questions are you ask you’re asking the coaches to see like if they’re real you’re asking equipment managers like hey how’s this person treat you athletic trainers like all that is very valid I I think that’s real information
You can get about guys 100% like who who who’s coming to the games uh you know are his family very involved does he have any brothers um who’s who if you when when you when you tell him he’s going to get this big uh this this big
Start and he’s going to be Captain who’s the first person called um you know all a sudden he complains about something who’s the first person he relates to so um I just think it’s trying to find out about the individual and who are the most instrumental people in his life um
And I think that’s the the connection you have to make it’s you got to get to know your players as people I mean one of the things I always try to do is just if they’re not good at home they’re not gonna be good at work so I got to I want
To get to know them as people and they wives their kids U their their parents their brothers their sisters whoever is important to them you know who are the people you’re sharing this this this period of time with that’s most important and the most unbelievable time of your life is being a professional
Football player it’s a window of time and who is those people that are influencing you the most and who are having a big big part of your your upbringing what’s that quote uh you show me the people you hang around I I’ll tell you who you are or something like
That like that entire process I don’t think that’s necessarily completely fair in all situations because you know people come from different places but it is very it is very valid to be like hey who’s talk who’s in his who’s he talking to who how does he respond to adversity
Like all those things matter and I I think I don’t know if media understands that enough you know cuz with combine thing is the numbers steal the the conversation going in the draft numbers steal the conversation and then people will find plays from their Seasons that
Back up those numbers like oh yeah look at how fast this person is but like when you’re running an NFL team it’s a smaller locker room longer season it’s real like who’s the human you’re getting in and I don’t think a lot of people there’s some young GMS I think that
Don’t think about that there’s been GMS in the history of the NFL that don’t think about that that put teams together but I feel like maybe it’s a point that people need to think about almost as much as like their talent like are we bringing in a culture killer like that
Needs to be at the Forefront don’t you think and in this era it might be a little bit different to try to figure out with the nil and everything I wonder how how that kind of plays into at all so so I really believe culture has a lot
To do with leadership culture has a lot to do with the people that you bring in and so the element of that is you know metrics can tell you one thing but I always just said the same thing is you know I’m G to treat everyone the fair
Fairly but I’m not going to treat everybody the same because you’re getting asked to do different things and so to me the one thing that you have to do is have a set of core values and just recognize some people are going to test you okay I always had this one it’s
Called production and tolerance so as long as there’s production up there you’re gon to have a little bit of tolerance for that person right there you know but but you know all of a sudden the production goes down you’re have to tolerate some things we’re going to talk and if your tolerance doesn’t
Come down you’re not We’re not gonna be talking anymore because you’re not going to be here so it’s it’s it’s production and tolerance and at the same time I wanted edgy people you don’t want just everybody’s good you can coach I said this before and I said today I wanted
Guys Who Would Walk the Line Walking the line is is is what I wanted you to do I want you to be confident I wanted to have a Swagger about you and maybe even arrogant I said when you cross the line was crossing the line is disrespecting
The opponent you disrespect the game or you disrespect the teammate and if you walk to that cross that line I’ll pull you back but damn I want you to walk that line close and if you don’t ever cross it you’re not trying hard enough I want edginess I want confidence I want
Cockiness but I want you to respect the game but do with a little bit of a Swagger and a chip on your shoulder Yin are Legend dude yeah you hear that that’s like he basically just described like what a dream Pittsburgh football team I had like Kevin Green in
My head yes absolutely yeah you start rolling through the entire Squad who was who was a Carolina Panther he was a Carolina Panther and and their first coach was uh um Dom Capers who was my defensive coordinator Jerry Richardson came up when the Carolina Panthers was asking Dan Rooney how to run an
Organization and I sat there with Jerry Richardson when he came up the first year 1994 and we sat down after the season talked about and I said you know I have the perfect guy and he and it’s it’s Dom Capers would be good great so he took Dom Capers I thought it was
Great for Dom a year later you after the Super Bowl Kevin green God bless him is went down there Barry Foster went down there if you look at that first team Sam Mills was a teammate of mine with a Cleveland Brown back in in 1982 um I was
In the same camp with Sam uh when we’re for S tigano and so you know the Carolina Panthers when they started out that was a that was a good football team they they were able to get people from the outside and they were drafting right um something just they something has
Gone wrong since cam has left really they have not been able to find that quarterback you’re very still you’re still tied to the Carolina Community closely right you’re down there yeah I have a place in nor uh at balad island so I have a home down there and I’m
Still very much I talk to a lot of people NC State and so that’s still a big part of it that’s hey you know Russell Wilson went NC State so he’s got some good jeans w Pittsburgh I mean yeah you can tie it all together I guess you
Could find a link if you hit that damn siren down there at that Hurricanes game i’ have to don’t do it I did I did I know let’s not do it again let’s not do it again I know on I didn’t think it was a big deal
I went up to Mario before the game I said hey you don’t have a problem I said you know because I said I’m down here and you know I got asked to do this and um Ronnie Francis is a good friend I know he Ronnie was from Pittsburgh and
Ronnie Francis on the week before says if we win this series we play Pittsburgh you got to do the siren I go sure I’ll do the siren I didn’t think they’re going to win the series they won the series they played Pittsburgh I was living down there I did the sir and boy
There was some I ruffled some feathers that was a serious thing yeah so that was I I want to let you know I watched the reaction to you doing that siren as inur Legend and I like you going to Mario and going like hey I’m down here I
Want to be a jag off you know dropping all Pittsburgh stuff you know it’s getting a little s around here they’re asking me to do this entire thing I took the gumband I want to talk the buggy there they’re telling me to hit this siren yeah I what
You I mean Ronnie Francis he was he was a penguin he was from pitt that’s all I got to Ronnie Francis he was one of the best players they’ve ever had so I said you know Ronnie he’s the GM for Carolina We’re All in This Together Mario don’t it’s not a big
Deal uh so I want to let you know that I thought about that just a couple week uh months ago oh yeah couple months ago we go out to the Las Vegas Golden Knights game uh for Super Bowl week and they they ask if I’ll hit the siren and uh
I’m like yeah yeah of course of course because we’re you know trying to get in there Tai Schmidt’s been a fan since day one because of you so I appreciate you doing this for me because of you there was never a chance I was going to hit that siren because the way Pittsburgh
People responded but we did do the old oky dope uh to them and put Tai in there to do it so he had a moment in which I think he would say rallied the boys to a big time win yeah absolutely and one of the greatest photos I’ve ever seen
Somebody hitting a siren and I didn’t get ruined by the city of Pittsburgh uh you actually were the guinea pig for that entire thing so I appreciate you I appreciate you too absolutely yeah we all we all appreciate you coach I’m glad that I took one for you guys which is

And all of a sudden they they get the first down now Casey is now he’s getting mad he’s running back on the field like so he’s running off next time it’s third and eight he comes off he stops at the at at at at the right at the numbers and
Just yells at every one of those guys I’m not running on this freaking field again so get your asses off and I goes if I had who I’m watching this play I’m not gonna sit down this time and whoever’s fault it is we’re going to

She’s still the second alltime lad in score at Princeton damn bucket we’re playing physical my late my l my late wife actually played in the professional basketball league back in Nancy liberman wow gez holy okay do we have we had the cow I’m sure we were diving for
Loose balls slapping the floor yeah is that oh yeah oh yeah yeah yeah yeah I said so so actually um my second daughter got elbowed by my oldest daughter in a playoff game and I was in the stands and I remember it’s one of those weird things when everyone
Goes quiet and they hear you talk and I said get up Lauren you’re fine and and just everybody else yeah yeah and my wife was sitting there I go oh okay so she got out kind of looked at me went back down got into his defensive stance
And all of a sudden his blood came run gushing out of her nose and not that’s a broken nose no no no no so they run out there they got this nose on her thing she’s walking back to the bench and she’s like this and she goes
She takes it off she goes I’m not fine Dad I’m not F my bad I go my bad you felt like the smallest human in that too I go I I I told my wife I better go down and say something she goes no you’re probably better off staying up there I’ll go
Down Ah that’s amazing all right we appreciate the hell out you obviously Pittsburgh Legend you’re the best thank you for joining us today buddy thanks guys ladies and gentlemen coach bow yeah coach imagine getting to grow up with him being the head coach of your football team man that’s what we got to
Do awesome yeah yeah that is awesome those players too you listed oh my God just all I mean like as a patriot all those guys are so awesome and think about how they all played yeah we’re talking so think about football town we all played football whether it was on
The street or in the backyard whether it was organized or not everybody played football like that was the football team that was inspiring our entire our entire city I think he took over 90 won which you would have been four I think and I
Was three and then he retired in ‘ 05 or 06 so that was that was our from birth till high school end of high school like that was he was our bill KY is the face of what we’re supposed to be yeah now the jaw a little bit bigger than most
We’re not going to be able to keep up but AJ was like I got it yeah don’t worry which we appreciate do you guys talk about Jaws you and Bill ever uh no I have not really got to speak with him outside of him coming on the show he’s
Awesome what a good dude like he seems like a great human dude and then once he starts looking at that camera he’s in the team meeting room how is he not coaching I wanted to ask him like how tough is it for you to not be a coach we asked him that last
Year and he said something like I haven’t lost the game in 17 years he CBS Brothers yeah and he it does feel like when he’s with the CBS group this is just from JJ watt’s Instagram story he like treats that as like his team and family and they say watching the game
He’s coaching all 32 teams so I think he feels fulfilled with his football role because he is a football guy through and through yep it is a bummer of the Masters are April 12th I will say I am kind of oh and ESPN has the connection yeah exactly so it’s one of those
Things like you know you ever done a roast got to do the bill cow thing one it was for um lawyer they can go pretty bad they can go pretty terrible if they’re not like set up right Yeah this one’s been going on for 25 years though it looks like so this one’s good yeah and I’m seemingly the new one coming in and you are too if I’m doing this you’re doing this so oh no no I’m not supposed to be on the D the dis D
What I don’t enjoy it yeah like I um get on and then have to on people don’t like doing either of those but if it’s raising money for Bill coward it’s like all right all these Legends childhood I guess I could do that it’s
Like it it oh no yeah that’s what Chuck strong is taking place on the same exact day with chano so we we’ll sort it we’ll sort it we’ll sort it and if it’s not this year maybe next year we’ll donate because we would like Bill car’s night to be one
That we are a part of we’ll we’ll figure it out we’ll figure it out we’ll figure it out yeah plus we got the we got the Chuck strong text first you know that’s kind of maybe you send in a nice video they play huh you send a video they play
At the event that’s even worse at a roasting event we’re sending we’re just going you sending a video roasting everybody and then son of a get you back right here all right good luck boys po that people and then what I guess everybody in the crowd would just have to record
It and send it yep yeah but at that point now if you would like to take a shot at me just ask somebody in the crowd to record your shot so they can tweet it to me I’m sorry I can’t be there is this that was cool to we get
Offered that from Bill coward though very that’s a very cool moment there yeah I did one for a lawyer in town he was raising money for um I think so people could get like free representation I think there’s like a fund for these lawyers that they put
Together he represented me in my public intoxication okay pro bono he is he is also uh which went to trial so I’ll never understand how that you know they told me public intoxication never going to even make it the trial act like you killed somebody yeah trial not trial I’m
Sorry didn’t make it but it made it to court like I had to go stand in front of a judge like not only in jail but in there and I was told that’s never going to happen like literally this guy not good no the prosecut was trying to oh he
Had a heart on oh my god of course at one point the judge asked me uh have you ever been arrested for a substantial amount of time before and I was like no no I have not your honor and he stands up guys we don’t know if that’s true we
Would like an extension and I’m like look at he’s like two feet away he’s wearing jeans this guy oh Jesus in a courtroom yeah boom should been thrown out for that anyways I it was at that moment I said I’m going to represent myself going forward cuz I
Would like to you know cuz I was being told don’t say anything MH don’t say anything it’s like I would like to say something what don’t say anything anyway he’s good dude Jim so him and a bunch of his buddies all roasted him Jim Jim voils voils
There it is Jim voils yeah good dude does a lot for the community though like big time lawyer I think like a lot of like he was the Colts the Colts called him so he’s like a very successful lawyer who’s made Indianapolis home good man’s giving back a lot like give us
Back a lot he’s great human after I got to meet him they’re roasting him to raise money for something he asked me personally if I can do it face to face oh face to face ask you hey could you could you I already checked you got nothing going
On that whole thing that’s tough you know that whole thing and it was like yeah I’ll do it you know because I did appreciate this human and uh yeah I did I did I didn’t want like necessarily enjoy the idea of what the show is okay because if we’re roasting people like
There’s a couple good who’s deciding what the line is you know and who W be funny if it crosses yeah Bingo and for me there’s a lot of things you can find you know that boy I’m just getting cooked CU my life is the most absurd one
Of all time and I thought that’s what it was going to be was kind of weak it wasn’t that good but a late surprise roster was introduced moments before so I had to sit up at this thing for 3 or four hours sure okay the surprise roster
Much like what we just talked about with video being sent in can’t stay the whole night cuz he’s super busy it’s like oh yeah we’re all yeah okay everybody nobody else is busy yeah you’re you’re it was the brand new mayor of Indianapolis the one that the brand new
Mayor yeah it was his first year when he was a brand new mayor we had a mayor in Indianapolis for like 50 years this guy was the mayor of Indianapolis pretty much ex-military guy he was the one that kind of did everything he retires brand new mayor comes in did not even know
This guy I had no idea what his name was must have been within the first few weeks of him getting voted in uh he was the surprise roster he had to go first cuz he had to get out of there get home and his speech had like how about these
Other Roasters right so I’m listening this guy talk and I’m like well okay and the way he was introduced about how he has get out of here he’s very busy and I’m like in the middle of you know I don’t know probably 14 jobs in this entire thing and uh so yeah
I just cooked him basically he left he stood in the back of the room I was the next person he was like that’s not the mayor and obviously it was a big pop and then like it was hard not to just completely yeah direct myself oh
He’s got to leave he’s busy this is chipkin ass chipkin ass’s up there he has like 10 cars in the Indie Car owns 30 car dealerships traveled in from Pittsburgh to do this yeah chipkin ass is not busy you know this guy so like that’s what it became for 15
Minutes and afterwards I was like why’d you have to do that you know like to me yeah why’ you have to do this guy’s probably a good guy but it’s a a roast is the nature of this entire thing so like that’s why I feel terrible afterwards and then people cook you for
3 hours it’s like I’m not built for it but for bill Cary you know I think you got to be sometimes I think you got to be getting done for that is not could you imagine you two on a roast with a oh no no we we are not doing that
We were just going to no no no I’m just saying in a couple years let’s say five years oh yeah you know would love to have a talks table on this Ro you guys having like a month to write things about people and research people like that’s absurd that that is just
Crazy to think about what you could say to just saw some person Don yeah it’s like that’s the nature of who’s the roast Master he’s good oh Jeff Ross there it is he’s good yeah he’s unreal that’s like a dream to do a roast of
Someone I know very well see I feel so bad I do not we are here this is why we are here you this is a roast you brought here to rip you it has to be someone you know cuz like a lot of times for those celebrity roasts like they’ll bring
People up who like obviously know the person that’s being roasted but like they don’t have a close affiliation I feel like that’s where you get a lot of like that was way over the line this guy had like if you’re doing it to one of your buddies it’s just like
Okay whatever you know like that’s good I felt so bad afterwards I literally why’d you have to do never ever I did I did I did did you leave never ever do one no I had sit there yeah same I had to sit there what’s that you don’t
Feel bad no I just wouldn’t do would never ever do one yes that was my immediate thought as I’m sitting in that chair up there just thinking that guy mayor is probably gonna have to deal with him going forward of course and then these people are just cooking
Me about the same thing different I was like I never thought about if you show up though you know the deal though if you show up you shouldn’t take anything personal you know you know what you signed up for you also have to be funny
To do one yeah what was that Mike the they hire writers a lot of them hire writers obviously that write their stuff for them because it is it’s really tough to be funny and Brady have one how was his oh it hasn’t happened yet has it
Yeah it was supposed to be on Netflix wasn’t it supposed to be on Netflix yeah but it hasn’t B promotion for that hilarious some of those people that was dudy oh yeah you’re right that was not actually talk oh yeah damn that was the ai ai from will sasso’s podcast correct
Called dudy MH just go just crushing no no pauses just hilarious well that’s the ai’s got no feel yeah yeah but that that almost added to it yeah Tom Brady put out Tom Brady had one of the greatest 30 minute comedy specials I’ve ever heard
So good from this AI named dudy W Sasso so good Tom Brady needs to just rehearse that and just go ahead and just tore that yep it was phen ai’s funny oh yeah AI is funny if it needs to be which is a little bit scary but that Tom Brady
One’s coming right is that what that just said Netflix special taping featuring Brady and Friends Frenemies May 5th key forum is that this year when when will it come out then yeah I thought I thought it was last year May 5th we would have got Clips or heard something
Yeah maybe I just I figured it was last year and they haven’t finished like making it yet Jeff Ross is part of it so it’ll be good for enemies too I think I think Jazelle leads off with it oh no oh boy stop and the instructor see that’s too fall that’s
What I’m talking about FR of me was just a joke that right there that right there would be Jeff Ross is it’s got to be in there it’s going to happen yeah but that’s not even that’s like there’s there’s like so many different layers that that person will go and Tom
Scsb if it comes from a place of love at all plays if you love the person that you’re roasting it’s sure and I love Tom so we’re good you love everybody actually well if they were this helmet there’s a chance boys it’s 225 oh yeah has anything happened oh
Yeah the Chargers have released the wide receiver MH boom big deal this is the Chargers have an hour and 35 minutes to get under the salary cap they have officially released wide receiver Mike Williams the move will save the Chargers 20 million against their cap and Williams will become a free agent I
Wonder what the dead cap is I wonder how much money they owe him for next season I I should have done the research on that we thought big names were going to be released by the Chargers today because they have to get salary cap compliant I wonder who’s next what’s
Next how it’s next Mike Williams gone explosive Dynamic wide receiver the reason why they’re saving $20 million because at one point they said we need to pay this guy at least $20 million to keep us on on her team keep him on our team because of how good he is
Now that being said he becomes the Indianapolis Colts how much money are the Chargers paying on him that’s what a lot of teams are going to be thinking if he can stay healthy you’re talking about game wrecker AJ Hawk yeah that’s the only reason why they had to move on is
Because he just hasn’t been able to be on the field like as much as as much as he should but yeah I don’t know where what’s his market look like and who do you think bring brings him in should be a should be a great Market he’s I think
He he becomes more of a market than he becomes the number one r like I think there’ll be L there’ll be a lot of like iname bonuses right Pat per game you got to be active for that game he’ll have a lot of money in that because they want
To know hey if he’s not hurt then you then the incentives will help him out to be on the field yes percentage of games played is probably going to be added in there per game roster all that up active inactive I assume going to be a part of
Normal contract talk for Mike Williams for the rest of his career because of how this entire thing has gone with the first big contract he got but I do wonder what his money already is like what is he he just signed a threeyear $60 million deal I think going in the
Last season but to your point your best ability is availability then they just drafted Quinton Johnston last year in the first round did not have a great uh rookie year but that’s kind of he’s basically in that same mod with Mike Williams big guy get down the field make
Big plays the Chargers are now cap compliant congratulations to the Chargers making a big time play release in Mike Williams they keep Keenan Allen who I think Jim Harbaugh has complimented they keep Derwin James who Jim Harbaugh has complimented they keep Justin Herbert they keep khil maxu seemingly he’s he’s salary cap compliant
Bose is on the team as well I wonder if Harbaugh’s in there working out with them in the morning trying to figure out who’s going what but congrats to Chargers who had the worst cap situation going into the salary cap compliant timeline at 4 pm. Eastern Time to making
It underneath with time to spare yeah way to go now I wonder cuz I assume there are some free agents out there like I assume they’re going to have to add some guys so are they going to have to cut one of these other guys eventually or they or a restructure or
Something like that well and not done how much money has to go to Rookies the rookie draft class like 10 what’s that number seven and a half I assume it’s already prepared and they know that because of all the slotted deals so now Mike Williams will be added to this free
Agent watch as of this morning I believe 11:45 these were the names that were on the list there was a lot of moves that we did not cover that some Garner is a little bit uh smaller sure and we feel bad about that but congrats to all the players that are getting new
Opportunities new places and good luck to all the free agents and finding a new home um let’s go to a break on the other side maybe Reese Davis oh okay that’ be nice okay college ball talk college ball okay yeah we’re going to Iowa next Friday ped pretty good reaction on the

Ate 80 lunch talking about Zack e yeah I am talking about Zach Eed no yeah let’s go let’s see him go guard Luca Gars out of the perimeter not a chance Ed saying shoot all day you’re not going to shoot 100% I’m going to stay right down here wait for you to
Come into the big man’s land and guess what team I’m on the SWAT team your shit’s getting sent and then Ed’s backing him down and then lifting up his hand like this and dunking okay and you know it’s not even like this you know what Gars is saying it’s not even like

Quite a shot across the B to a front of the program mhm Countryman I mean Garza also did play against Ed yeah had a pretty good day dominated how he do though he had a good day too I don’t think so they both had good days which
Is a lot to happen yeah Ed had three points damn how many how many guards I have 22 was 50% from oh wow I think that’s almost exactly he did have a bum ankle he had a bomb ankles Ed had a bom ankle I’m sure Purdue won cuz historically they beat Iowa Iowa
Center Luka Garza commanded the floor for the Hawkeye scoring 22 points and pulling in nine rebounds didn’t have a double double Garza was not only successful from below the basket but he shot four for eight from the three-point line as well that’s pretty good luk Gar
Had a good game there he was a do you know why he was staying out there yeah cuz he knocks him down no cuz you want to dance with Edy yeah I’m sure he was shaking in his boots saying oh Ed’s one4 from the field with three
Points I can’t I can’t let this guy get hot saying come on talking about on the other side of the court I’m talking about the other side of the Court Garza was never worried about the other side of the court I’m GNA go score on offense
And then I’m gonna go back on defense and I’m gonna get flatbed trying to you know oh yeah a lot of that is that is is that his problem oh yeah he’s not Uber athletic but boy in that man the post moves can that guy that guy can fill it

This game’s over for the Saints sorry about it even though there’s little to no time he’s the clutchest performer of all time I mean I think that’s neither here nor there he prepares so well throughout the week more clutch than Adam ter yeah I mean I think so I think
You have to put him there right he’s had so many more moments so many more moments right like Vinnie and answered every time yeah he well not every time I guess that that one time and against the Eagles uh in the Super Bowl that’s so hard cuz Vinnie’s answered every time
Vin V’s clutchness comes from his competitive juices like vinary is so competitive so so so competitive he does not want to lose and I I don’t think people fully comprehend like the people up there the Jordans you already saw his whole last dance the pton Mannings the
Uh Wayne Gretzky Serena Williams is Kobe Kobe yes the Mamba mentality it’s described as the Mamba mentality what that is is just being more competitive than everybody else I think it all revolves around the competitive juices is that what you think it is with
Tom or no I think it’s a little bit of that but also same thing going back to Kobe right like whenever you if you guys saw that redeemed team or whatever on Netflix and he they’re all going out and having a good time with the club or
Whatever and he’s shooting shots at like 6:00 a.m. and they pass them coming in the night before that is Tom that is Tom like he is they are so prepared they care so much they want to work on every little detail that when it comes to the
Game when it comes to those situation they have no excuse cuz execution is the only thing that matters they have all the answers to the test listen I’m just curious I noticed that in every single one of those pictures you took you’re wearing the same suit so I’m just
Curious did did were you only at the combine one day did you only work one day I mean you talk about how you’re the hardest working guy ever you’re there one day like what what’s going on there I don’t know Ty I mean are we in Milan at the fashion show I’m there

Zero win head coach that everybody loves zero wins zero win but what what are you thinking about that for two how do you make him better um we’re going to start with scoring more points than the opponent wow holy no you are changing the game changing the game yeah through
Math no I think think um there’s I I I was just so fortunate in my career to be around the the process of how I look at things with with the empowerment of the right teachers that I I Look Backwards forwards okay um what things do I see that are really awesome
About his game on tape even though we’re at he’s accurate as head boom that’s what just about to say oh I didn’t know I I was just I I you were leaving me that’s how you should do this man think about it in the future but you he’s so

Beautiful people and welcome back to our humble boat the Thunderdome on this happy new league year Wednesday March 13th 2024 Hour 3 the program starts now sport our fantastic thing that’s AJ Hawk the talks to tables here appos Conor and atti Schmidt one half of the hammer
Cowboys T digs is here and a 9-year NFL vet Darius J Butler is here D you look really cool today that’s a color that I don’t think a lot of us could pull off but you certainly have a fantastic fashion appreciate you yeah he’s super fit all the time say his best
One is your favorite one olive green no this was kind of I think that’s the best one he’s had I think this what you’re were talking about the earlier couple weeks ago whenever you’re talking about the way a seat and a camera and the uh what you talking about yeah what’s going
On is this what you’re referring to though I just want well yeah it is an angle I me I w’t let you know for next football season we’ll have that adjusted y we should just get in him like an attachment that he can just slide into
His yeah when you got to get an x-ray or something Bingo and they they wrap that thing around one of those yeah but it looks like a table it does okay so as soon as he comes in for the show strap like a belt flips it around John Cena
One of the thing he had on maybe I could just yeah see you and John Cena like people are thinking this guy’s got to be humiliated by this he’s got 1.2% body fat yeah yeah should have been embarrassed by the sandals we talked about that a few times
John CA can’t the Birkin stocks right yeah that’s where they were can’t have it I personally I just don’t do that they kind of went with the robe or toga or whatever that was afterward oh so it’s kind of a little bit of a teaser for what’s come ah that makes more sense
Okay okay okay okay but you for instance like with how you know somebody offers how about this you want to be uh you want to be naked uh front of 15 20 minut no no not going to humiliate me like that you say I’m not getting initiated
Nothing no chance also with Cena you Cena was just holding a card we’re going to need you know a couple cards yeah probably a card are we talking college basketball ukah no it’s one of those things where what’s that thing that rolls like you scoll scoll that’s what
We’re going to need like the little n one yeah good new who’s holding that that Grammy thing well probably probably nothing affiliated with uh what with who we’re talking about prop yeah we’re talking about the prop he had in his hand what are you talking about what are you talking about
Hey bag alert on this new league year Wednesday Eagles and kicker Jake Elliot have reached an agreement on a 4-year $24 million contract extension to 6 million average per year ties Elliot with Justin Tucker for the highest paid kicker in NFL history per Source Elliott is coming off a season in which he
Connected on a career best 93.8% of his field goals that’s via ESPN’s Adam schfer obviously a man who’s on all the phones all the time trying to break all the news Jake Elliott has been incredibly consistent since he got into the league we met him whenever he was on
The Bengals as backup uh he came into the studio with Kevin Huber who is one of my friends from back Big East days whenever he was K uh punting at Cincinnati and he taught me a lot I mean I’m they came by the office and uh we
Saw him and he’s not as tall so I’m a guy that I would like kicker punter to be a little bit needs to be a big body you don’t see dh’s you know that are small like that is just not normal thing got to be able to generate a lot as Luke
C said he’s got 300 lb of fun behind his punts whenever he’s doing that entire thing so I see Jake he was properly jocked but he was like 5’10 maybe or 5’9 whatever I whatever it was a little so I was wor I was like we kicking the ball
Deep and Huber’s like Mur this guy murders the ball and then he gets his opportunity with Philly and as soon as he gets there he just is consistent bombs balls kicks that aren’t supposed to go in heavy wind left to right this place is crazy somehow someway some
Kickers are able to figure it out Jake Elliott since his first time getting an opportunity with the eagles which is not an easy place to kick has figured it out he’s a weapon for them in an era in which they’re scoring a lot of points
And the offense is going to have to do great congrats Jake on getting paid proud of you buddy wasn’t handed anything no was not handing any opportunities we’re not talking about getting drafted we’re not talking about he had to go figure it out battle do this whole thing now the man out of
Memphis uh University of Memphis College me Memphis university University Memphis UNH University mhis Penny Hardway well I don’t think it’s going great there uh anyways Tigers t i g e r s tigers get another he had like the kick of the year last year to send the Bills
Game into overtime where was like a 61 y in the rain and in the wi and he had been making those like 60 yarders 58 yarders 59 yarders at a high clip as a like his first year like perfect it’s like damn this guy’s a real deal him and
Uh money Mack uh from Cincy yeah Evan mcferson yeah they kind of have similar starts with teams where it’s like these guys are just coming and been stone cold which not easy to do mentally or your leg to keep up with because of how long the season is and money M kind of
Shorter guy too you ahead pal the last three years in Philly three of three from 50 plus five of six from 50 plus and seven of eight from 50 plus yeah so he he’s good he’s a stud and that’s not easy you pay that guy I’m
Glad he got paid yeah you kidding me and with where the salary cap is going like six million a year you can you can find that if the guy’s G to make it now at that price gotta and Justin Tucker knows this and every kicker punter that has
Ever signed for you know a little bit more than what everybody else has signed sign four you have to you know like you have to make them all there’s not there’s not a three-week stretch where we don’t know and Jake Elliott is proven not to be that guy just like Tucker is
Proven not to be that guy but at that price tag that is the conversation if he gets hurt yeah somehow and there’s like you miss a couple games and the season doesn’t go as well for the Eagles it gets loud in the offseason with how much money is allocated to a kicker like
That’s the reality of the situation Jake Al Jake Elliot’s the right one to have that type of pressure kind of why it sucks for Brandon Aubrey like these kickers are getting broken off he was a he was a rookie like he’s got to go do
It againft yeah yeah so if he doesn’t do it again it’s like hey sorry buddy you had a great rookie year but we don’t care that was really good that one year was fun yeah it was really fun a lot of games you’re good so you want
The Pro Bowl yeah it was cool I mean he’s got the exact same team coming back around him so he’ll be comfortable Cowboys are the only team the only team I did see that not I saw empty graphic of here’s the Cowboys free agency moves
And it was an empty graphic oh no yeah like I guess saw Cat Williams oh yeah Speedy I mean skip was pretty pissed so let’s let’s chat about a little bit about the Cowboys not doing anything we talk about the roster being really good we do you know like that is
Kind of always the conversation it’s never like all the roster stinks that’s never a conversation so everybody always talks about J Jones meddling and everything until he stops doing that they’re never going to be able to win again now do I believe that to be true
Maybe I maybe they never win again in which area we have no idea I do think the tours through the facility that I learned about just a week ago could certainly be an idea that Jerry has had business-wise that could affect you know the ability for every single player to
Be at their absolute best I think some players perfect for that but if you miss on a guy that isn’t supposed to be a cowboy and isn’t comfortable every single day people doing tours and meetings and stuff that can potentially draw you back a little bit more than
Everything else so whenever you’re doing free agency or drafting anybody or anything like that for the Cowboys I think it is crucial that you get people that can be Dallas Cowboys in the entire story that’s a that’s a real thought that has come into my mind since the dton Schultz conversation like not
Everybody’s cut out to be watched while they’re working out like you know like not everybody’s supposed you got to find that guy and you got to find talent I assume it’s not easy to win down there in Dallas and they certainly have it for a long long long
Long time yeah it ain’t easy and that that culture thing somebody’s going to point a finger at it when you’re not winning it’s always going to be something but I’m sure they were the same way when EMT was there when Dion was there when Troy was there Irvin like
That’s just how Jerry does business-wise and you got to hit um especially this time of year I am surprised that they haven’t gone after any linebacker though you know cuz I feel like that was their biggest glaring weakness obviously you lost Travon digs but Don BL had a great
Year Gilmore played okay um but that linebacker spot I would want to keep Micah off the edge as much as possible you got to get some real you know three down linebackers on that second Lev Zim down there now is that who you see Zim
So I assume he’s thinking a lot of the same things yeah I mean I’m sure they were in on people but it probably just didn’t make sense for whatever reason but if they reach and go overpay people then people want to kill them as well so
It’s like what do you do they they can’t do that though like they have to pay their most pre Premier positions coming like Mike is gonna probably reset the market CD he won’t reset it because of Jefferson but he’ll get dir probably like I mean they have I mean d needs
Another contract I mean you can make the argument Tyler Smith needs to get prayed reasonably like the Colts if the Colts were to be judged and obviously this is not good for the Cowboys uh to be in this particular conversation they’re probably not happy about it but you guys
Didn’t wi to playoff game near other weight the um okay so that’s just how it ISAT the Colts had a lot of signings so they seem to be very active and fre it’s all their own guys like a lot of their own guys are getting signed back like if
The Cowboys had to sign their own guys seemingly they would be very active right now and you’re not winning any headlines and Cowboys fans normally win every single headline and then you look within the division you got saquin going to the Eagles you think he probably gets better there with the Philadelphia
Eagles so I think that’s why it’s been so loud you think Big Mike McCarthy’s word you think Big Mike McCarthy knows everything that’s on the line every year I guess but most definitely this year for him for the I would say Big Mike I Big Mike understands he knows what is
What is on the line he knows also hey we gotta get out to a fast start like we can’t be messing around this year no question we all win yeah uh ladies and gentlemen we are going to call a man who is currently oh yes on a car ride I
Believe to the airport he’s not driving I think a lot of people whenever we cold call people and people answer and they’re in a car a lot of people go hey you should be paying attention to rad we don’t talk to anybody’s driving no distracted drivers are the worst drivers
We don’t like when they’re pulled over on the side of I’m a motorcycle I I I ride motorcycles I do not want distracted Riders okay I we are very get set so just know we’re talking to somebody they either have a driver or they’re sit in passenger seat we do not
Want to uh risk society’s safety at all absolutely not that’s not what we won’t be a part of never how about when Herbst Street parked on the side of the road the most uncomfortable I’ve ever been every car shaking his truck yeah he’s he’s holding the thing perfectly too like maybe the greatest
FaceTime holder in the history of the show Kirk’s like let me pull over side of the road here you guys kind of caught me in the middle of a road trip here I’m heading down to Tennessee and he’s he’s literally at the bottom of a hill with a
Bend that is at the same exact angle his FaceTime is yeah so I’m watching his wheer gain speed down probably qu mile maybe even a half mile around and then it blows by his car and his car shakes and we saw the whole thing I was like oh
All right Herby we’re done with this I can’t take you dying around the bend so that’s how adamant we are about that all thing cuz we are a cold call show yeah all time need to keep that in the show yes join us now was in the back of a
Vehicle heading to the airport ladies and gentlemen college basketball college footballs ree Davis yeah race you know what the the big the biggest upset is that herb Street was driving himself someplace and I’m not that is look at you living the high hey living that high life getting show
For the round we respect and appreciate that because of all the hard work you put in we called you out earlier in the show we said because you didn’t answer cold call earlier today we weren’t going to talk college ball we’re appreciative that you are back to Enlighten us on
Stuff this morning I assume you were busy please tell I just I just put my phone down I was packing to go to the ACC tournament and my phone was away from me so I didn’t know you’d called until later classic classic that’s on us and obviously the way I operate my fault
No no no listen you do what you got to do cuz you’re packing to go cover some basketball right which is why we need to talk to you okay so right now we’re in the middle of conference championships taking place the women I believe for last weekend the men this weekend then
Selection Sunday is happening who should we be what are the teams in the men’s side that we need to pay be paying attention to debuts tell me Yukon Yukon team is the team who are the teams this year that we need to be paying attention to reys I’m I’m with
Deb I think yukon’s the best team again a team that I really really like though is Tennessee um now Tennessee they won the SEC outright they got beat at home by Kentucky last Saturday but they’ve got this dude Dalton connect who transferred from northern col Colorado
He put 40 on Kentucky this past weekend and he’s done that routinely he’s the SEC player of the year he’s going to be a a g to be a good NBA player I think and he gives Tennessee a little something that they haven’t had in the
Past in terms of offense so um I’m I’m a big fan of Tennessee I think they can get over some baggage that they have as a program in the tournament they’ve never they’ve never made a final four Rick Barnes uh you know has had his sharei struggles both at Texas and
Tennessee in the tournament so you know I think this is a real opportunity for Tennessee to go the final four I like those two a lot Ford do I’m gonna have to see it to believe it with their tournament history and well re he’s he’s a big-time player
And they’ve added some depth they’ve added some older players that have helped them but I just worry about the mental side when they’re I think their last three outs are fairly dick St Peters and North Texas and you know if it gets if it gets a little it gets a
Little tight I worry that weighs on them they’re good enough to do it I just worry about their uh their their mental overload and the pressure that comes with that one and done thing in the tournament yeah but remember we’re in the Zack 8s Jersey has already been
Retired era things are much different right now for the Purdue boiler makers I like hearing that about Tennessee Good Old Rocky Top down there I like to hear that and Yukon obviously has a five FY fiery head coach who’s got the boys reigning national champions maybe do it
Again ton digs got a question for you for all is bracket people yeah Reese there’s there’s always a non- power five or Cinderella if you will uh who’s like 28 and2 but and we haven’t heard we don’t know about them like it’s been like Drake and and teams like that or or
Florida GF Coast in in in the past who’ve been really good in the regular season but we just haven’t heard about them because they’re non- power five is there a team like that uh out there this year there there are a few one you mentioned already is is Drake with
Tucker debrises really really good team they’re going to be in the tournament team they beat uh to win the conference Championship Indiana State y uh with with Robbie ail they’re calling him cream Abdul Jabar because of the glasses or college yic a really Orthodox odd player he’s an unorthodox type player
But boys he a good passer really good passer can score I think they can C some trouble and a team that I’d heard about or actually a coach I’ve heard about for years from some friends of mine in Alabama that I got a chance to watch his
Team play last night is uh Samford which is in Birmingham Bucky McMillan is the coach a player really aggressive style of offense got a little tight late in the game last night but they’ll be in the tournament and I think that they might be able to win a game once they
Get there too go ahead Ty yeah Reese going off Drake um getting in I think they were maybe kind of like a fringe bubble team team cuz they’re pretty solid but uh going into selection Sunday in the conference tournaments do you get the sense that we’re going to get quite
A few bid Steelers here like is the is the bubble I mean I obviously outside of Yukon it seems like everything’s kind of wide open uh do you get the sense that we’re going to like the bubble’s going to really start to shrink here in the next few
Days you know it’s I don’t think so but there here’s the caveat there are fewer teams in the ACC right now that appear to be locks if you have you know if you have somebody rise up and and come sure looking good yeah look at that
It’s a great still show we agree so that’s you know that’s yeah that’s what we think too so those are the ones that that I look at I wouldn’t say a ton of them okay all right hey you look better than you’ve ever looked the ability to have that suit and tie fantastic
There he’s truly phenomenal all right hey Rees we appreciate you taking time today we’re going to continue to blow up your phone over the next couple weeks as March Madness tips off you’re the man pal I’ll keep it with me thanks guys travel safely ladies and gentlemen Rees
Re he’s in backs of high society he’s getting chff around if that’s going to take place driving with connection you know we we’ve we’ve done that song and dance it happens we do we talked uh men’s college basketball today we did we talked women’s college basketball we’ll be in

Questions sounds like you wanted to do that you I know who I would ask questions to how about the Royals we learn anything there oh yeah last night Princess Kate’s dead what saying she’s dead her lawyers said see that video from that very trustworthy woman last
Night I did not see that I’m surprised I didn’t because once we brought up yesterday cuz JJ wat was all over my timeline last night call JJ it’s called JJ I got a great the huh said I got a great Kate Middleton Theory but I’m going to keep it inous till it’s proven
Correct this morning was it yesterday or this morning I’ll text you AJ it was yesterday but I reiterated it this morning for the you don’t want to you got to document it so if it comes true he had an American flag uh steer hat on that he bought at
The Texas rodeo a couple weeks ago of course that said Country Pride across the back great hat he had a bottle with Z 10 zins maybe in his mouth and he looks over at me he goes you don’t want to know the real deal behind the Royals
And that’d be awesome I I laughed so hard I I was like this is a movie this was a movie this was actually a movie interaction right now and I I started dying laughing he goes you don’t you don’t and then and then he told me to
Look into it and I did last night a little bit and it’s Prett wild there’s a chance I I mean this is there a 5year prediction so because a lot of things need to happen still but I I I do have my Rogers just getting dropped into the vice president talk yesterday
Through the New York Times y the New York Times he just like the smallest of most absurd things that are potentially being talked about on the the internet is alive right now the internet is really swinging we’re talking back whenever it was the juice era of MLB
What the internet is doing there’s a new Maguire or Sosa stepping into the Batters box hulked up swings on the internet and hitting balls out of the stadium the views on some of these tweets of some of these things I got it’s like that’s got 17 million views
I’m like a lot of people have seen this does everybody know a lot of people seen this and then this one a lot of people have seen this and I’m not seeing any Community notes going nah dog that’s what actually what that’s what community notes are now they are which are awesome
And hilarious it’s like it’s an insane time to be alive it is we’re lucky to be here we’re lucky to be here grateful I mean this is the most uh like going through Twitter you see more tweets with 5,000 plus retweets than you isn’t it
Yeah it is it is yeah the views are all big oh aren’t they I mean have you seen the T not everybody’s I’ve seen some other people’s that aren’t that big Bo they’re really talking I don’t have that thing have you seen the Tik Tok quote
Tweet one where it’s like what’s the Tik Tok video uh that’s the reason why they shouldn’t delete Tik Tok I mean there are at least at least a 100 Tweets in those quot tweets that have one to 10,000 retweets worth it too I mean some of the I mean internet is I
Mean it’s sci-fi yeah some parts it’s comedy it’s roasting a lot lot of lot a lot of roast scary lot of scary lot of Jeff Ross is out there a lot of roast Masters on the internet seemingly just one after right get like their jokes fly D1 haters D1 haters self admitted yes
Self admitted so we we appreciate and respect the self-awareness and it kind of adds to the Allure of it but yeah there’s some scary stuff going on on the internet you see things happen to people you’re like I hope that never happens to me does morbid history pop up in your for you
M tough it’s tough not to look at that the trains I mean the that happens with that how about that Amazon driver that had the train T that’s nice that was a survival that was a survival cuz as I started watching that video I was like back in the day
You used to think n they wouldn’t put is on here if this guy dies right now the internet’s like we don’t know if he’s it they might we don’t know if he’s Dead somebody’s very much alive some team has given somebody some money Source the Jets are resigning punter Thomas Moore said to a two-year deal with her 5 million bucks way to go Thomas Moore said he was drafted in the same draft class as I back in 2009 just
An absolute machine the guy’s an actual DRS machine just same ball same place right where he wants it he’s a veteran I think everybody loves him want to bat for the team and the franchise and the program publicly a couple times I think he was NFL PA like high up member so
You’re talking about a staple of the NFL for the last 15 years around buildings I think and coaches and players obviously know them maybe not fans as much he want he got big popular this last year because of his running after field goals to keep himself warmed up for kickoffs
He also I think pinned some like I think I think he pinned I think he won some games for the Jets this year even though Jets only won a couple games MH I think he was a big part of it so they signed zerine and Thomas morestead back they
Just traded for Moses y right at the tackle jets are making some moves here here we go also signed John Simpson from Baltimore to play guard I believe Taylor too right Taylor backup quarterback could be stared if there’s a SE to Oval Office which is a strip club
In Green Bay I was actually thinking of the timeline though cuz the elections not till November and then the inauguration not till the new year right or after the janary the playoffs so should be good right there’s the EV office in Green Bay that is that in DC
Or no that’s not the actual that’s not the one that’s not the one the White House is that the White House a replica I no I think that is the adult ballet is it two stories AJ you’ve been in there what up top is Boom Boom
Room uh I honestly have not been inside okay so the upstairs what happens to the upstairs second second floor getting should uh I think that is are like faux windows I don’t know if there is like an upstairs tell you so we got we got from the look up in the sky spicy
Cinnamon and she catches herself with the thighs that’s going on Oval Office I think so it might be you know you know what’s nice did you see the grass and the Shrubbery and the landscaping around the oval I did sidew I was going to say the concrete on the
Sidewalk very well manicured I you should definitely go there yeah yeah okay it’s actually an exact replica of the original white house before the uh Brits burned it down in the War of 1812 actually think that that exact replica is actually down in the Florida Keys oh
They moved it picked it up with a helicopter oh there it is okay so that is the exact replica yeah that’s office is that the wait what yeah that’s where the president that’s where the president sits in the back there you’re right Nick I was wrong there this is the exact
Replica of the overal office is that Lincoln on the wall yeah I think Elvis Presley met down here with the president at the bottom they talked about peanut M&M’s you got that big table cuz you got a lot of lot of talk about oh yeah they say about two days in the whole
Thing is filled with papers the amount of you got to do that’s why you age like a pres what the hell is that what is that office office what are the little like cocktail tables in between those the you know the stuff on the outside they they’re computers laptops
So the cabinet sits around the big table and then all the assistants and stuff like that sit at the cocktail table lot of delegates yeah Biden almost died in there actually he at kid table and hey will love this room who slicky will no he Bill owns was the this is what he
Designed anyways it’s an honor to look inside of a place that has obviously affected so many things yeah what’s a bummer is that you can’t see the top cuz I believe Lewinsky’s Jersey is hanging up with rapers yeah yeah performance in there that people say still talk about
Shout out to the Oval Office getting things done in there yeah that’s off shut up I would I would assume that even the most frequent visitors of that particular oal office had no idea that that’s what it looked like no oh would wait hold on during the day that’s how
There a lot of lights on and I’m in there is that a is that is that a portrait of Lincoln on the the hell is that doing the walls are white I have never seen that I’ve been there last 22 weeks I was there last night what’s that same place same thing
But at night now we’re talking is that George W that is y oh jeez Louise yeah second second floor getting shoulder rubs that is happening well at the Oval Office but they still got the you know still got the chance to drop from three floors yep yeah it’s nice looking establishment how
Far is this from Appleton about 30 minutes this is right in Green Bay we stayed in Appleton yeah we went out there because you guys didn’t have enough hotels because the only buildings that are able to be hotels are actually strip clubs like the Oval Office you know so that’s good I
Think the oval is the only one honestly I really do oh so it’s like in Green Bay oh that place must be passed out they drink a lot out there in green B exact is the draft in Green Bay uh I believe so yeah yes we got live from next year
We’re not doing that not doing that obviously that’s where uh George W came up with his we do not negotiate with terrorist line oh a Washman tip this stripper no but then he just remixed it to drive yeah exactly is that why they got a picture of him in there bingo
They’re like it’s all Legend we do not know if this is true correct we will be at the draft in Detroit mhm yeah H that’s a big deal that’ll be cool Detroit I saw the look I’ve heard stories I don’t want to live the stories I just want to hear
Them Detroit’s great so they say it’s great good people on a rebound actually not that many people the Red Wings suck cuz the Red Wings uh put an actual trash company on their they put a trash can logo on their Jersey my God is that is that yes that’s accurate so the Red
Wings had won six games in a row hockey Town’s back we’re going to make the playoffs everyone is so excited you don’t understand the Red Wings mean so much to Michigan and the city of Detroit so people have been waiting for this and then they decide to put a sponsor patch
Of priority waste management company and they have lost six games in a row and now we might not make the point they put a dumpster company on their chest on an original six jersey the greatest TP in all of hockey that’s a lot they ruined how much they get for that they’re
Fighting it a l Mone well I do appreciate that uh the greedy corporate Fat Cats Stevie W like w no that’s not a Stevie W decision no I know exactly who it was who who Chris illich that’s who everyone’s blaming it was ill ill father was the one that started Little Caesars
Own the Red Wings own the Tigers owns a bunch of stuff in Detroit he passes away passes it down to his son and he’s just a money grab oh we won six games to try to get some money who’s he got a dumpster company whatever money’s green
Bam put the dumpster on the tarp disgust George craft hockey is supposed to be awesome that’s not awesome the boys Gumpy mens the boys were fighting at practice today too each other scrap at practice each other throwing trash cans at each other that’s how pissed they are about the patch that’s how the
Replacement look so bad you you want us to act like trash okay we’ll act like trash yeah is that what you want trash we’re trashing the games we’re trash in practice we act like trash when we fight each other yeah there’s a petition to get that removed that ain’t GNA work
Already took the money I know too late oh I know and what I heard is the dumpster company was like we’ll pay this amount for wins we’ll pay this amount for losses so they’re not even getting the amount of money that they thought they were going to get from this
Dumpster company that potentially cursed them back into being a sucky a sucky team wow damn shame a lot of people say dumpster fire M but then that’s R you’re burning all the trash true so like it’s a good thing yeah yeah things just need to be a dumpster full dumpster yeah very full
Dumpster right there we’re looking at it guys biting them does this happen a lot in inseason practices we we don’t know you would know better than us actually in your family is a Stanley Cup champion are we serious guys remember that wasn’t a fight yeah what
What are we talking face this is like a training camp so you guys won’t even fight now that you guys got trash over the boys are fired up they’re ready to go weak ass fight yeah smiling oh he threw it right there after he lost his helmet yeah hell
Yeah oh there’s another little shot there great lettuce on that guy who said this was a fight little scra not good got I’ll tell you that much it is a little dust up bit of a dust up dust your own team you like to see
It you like to see the fire it’s like a players only meeting you know what they need they need mcdc to walk into that locker room and get them ready to go and MCC is going to say you guys put a trash company on your chest yeah right
Over your heart okay I’m out that ain’t this team wow you guys suck I didn’t know that Red Wings are so trash original six franchise yeah that’s right that’s back when they were winning you just you can’t mess with the hockey Gods like that you cannot do it well if it
Means Penguins just really good players I know Chad uh I send you that text today or no what what about the Penguins what’ you say I mean look I I I shouldn’t be in a spot to say anything because the Bruins are not playing well
Right oh you guys suck great not as bad as this I believe the peguins have two goals in their last like 250 shot attempts these guys are standing on their head against the pens we’re trading away our good players I mean what are we do Nick Panthers
Rolling at this point the best thing they could do is lose out and keep their first round pi oh Sydney Crosby supposed to just skate out there and lose yeah there it is sorry two 288 jez my bad what what a shots on gold though goalies good
Goalies not all on net just shot attempts oh those we suck we finally get rights you hear mehm doing the show what six seven years yep finally get hockey rights able to ER yeah that’s what I’m saying it’s the wrong time for it like at least
Give us a year or two of being able to Grand stand and peacock about how great we are now we just suck now we’re he’s talking about tanking yeah he just said we hope we lose I don’t hope we lose it’s okay it’s okay gold nights to you
Guys suck no no actually massive comeback Victory last night Jackie Ace is poton one in OT taking down the Kraken so yeah the boys are buzzing nights have been so good to us they’ve won two in a row so they’re they’re you know got we get you get a
Couple big time Acquisitions at the deadline the boys need to you know kind of get their skates wet so to speak so are you still on a team I haven’t heard anybody reach out to you has anybody reach out to you since the Super Bowl
I’m on litr as well with Stoner so LTI whatever who cares what we call it you know I’m be sitting out until the playoffs is uh is is what I’m getting at so you know yeah still on the squad obviously is there a lock room problem nobody’s reaching out to you no locker
Room problem whatsoever Jackie’s back he’s got the boys under control they don’t need me anymore right now the Panthers are the team from what we’ve been told Rolland huge comeback last night I mean I don’t know if I huge comeback Captain what a COC of that
Game was beat who they beat last well it was three nothing stars and then it was a parade to the Penalty Box down three does that happen I hav I don’t have my eyes on the Panthers does that happen every time the Panthers are losing they just get power play after
Power play after power oh Dall sucks sorry about it let’s talk about the Panthers EX look at the mental toughness out of the Panthers why are we crying about the refs gum that we no I was asking no I was ask I was asking you cuz I haven’t watched many Panthers game I
Know you’re a big fan does that happen every Panthers you we get we get wins however we need to get it when you go in a tough Barn like that however you need to do it come out you know oh that was in your barn yeah the Panthers want see right now CFO
Phil said Panthers fun team he coached hockey played hockey kid playing great hockey hey I think Phil’s kid is going to be an American hope hopefully might save the pens in 15 years have you seen have you seen the video nasty backhand goal probably won yeah yeah one
One0 and he’s got a little Moxy little nice little s afterwards yeah little Phil got Moxy too wait they’re both Phil all time hold on there’s three wait who who did that all of you guys name is Phil you know who when was that when did that
Happen I assume numerous times now at this standpoint of the entire game but that does and B mitt boy m m grew up in the NFL like every athlete names their kid junior yeah L Fel though is a dog he’s going to be I assume he’s going to end up in that
Michigan Camp an arbor where all the American yeah go toed what’s that it’s like that prep school that Sid went to in Michigan Jack Jack went there I believe is it Minnesota yeah Jack went there too okay so you’re that one’s in Minnesota that’s that Junior that’s Junior in Minnesota that’s like that’s
Like a prep school uh what AJ what you were talking about sorry is the US national development team yeah but don’t they live up there yeah that’s like their whole life yes Aces I believe did that yeah that’s who the one who I talked to about it whenever he uh he
Stopped by his site to say what’s up very kind of him to do that Tai was 17 whiskey died steep oh I was up had already had a sword wielded a sword M an undefeated night sword yeah but I talked to him about it and I was like so
Are you guys running plays or what are you doing he’s like well there’s different when you dump it everybody’s just kind of reacting like you’re kind of taught different systems and L that type of stuff and I’m like so you just did this your whole life yep and he
Talked about that Michigan place where he was up and all the guys that are good seemingly just go up there and they just play against and with every the American kids cuz they don’t have the junior infrastructure like Canada is if you’re in Canada you go play Junior Hockey if
You’re in the US and you’re really good you can go play for that team and they’ll travel around play all the good college teams play yeah but every day they’re playing against each other too like it’s what age do they go up there I think teenager like 14 yeah 14 15 they
Move away from their homes yeah hockey’s a different world man it really is go live with somebody else in somebody else’s house for multiple years and like every day he just like we’re hey we’re doing the hockey my uncle used to coach that team really yep they won the gold
With him nice gole Uncle Fox thank you Uncle Fox and the one in Minnesota is the same type of academy uh slightly different it’s like a it’s a prep school so they got a different system and stuff but like the idea is the same if you’re like that’s where Sydney Crosby went I
Believe Jonathan taaz went there too where Ser where Kenny Ryder and Sergio go they Serge went to the USHL which is American Junior League oh yeah it’s pretty good and then he went to Ohio State yes he went to Ohio State he was from Plum where’ Kenny do you remember
Where Kenny went he I’m not positive but I know he did the same thing he just left yep we were like classmates in class together talking to him hey good friend like kind of talking every single day gone forever see Paul where the hell did he go he want to play hockey holy
I just moved out of his house nice KN just went and live somewhere else somebody else and like chasing dream the hockey that’s a wild that’s a wild com Go Pro you make it uh yeah I think actually he’s playing I think he’s playing I think play he’s played in the
AHL which is the minor league from the NHL and the EC AHL both of those which is a step down from the a but he’s gone back I think you say it was worth it Minnesota uh state championship coming up there will be some sweet stuff on X
That already happened right didn’t it because they broke the glass was that the final I didn’t know if that was was that playoffs or final one of playoffs are happening one of these Minnesota high school uh fan bases for this hockey tournament state tournament I think they broke the
Glass like while they were cheering saw that oh yeah yeah I saw that glass I glass it was during the game during the game something happened the state uh Championship is at the wild Stadium it’s sold out they fill that up they love the hockey state of hockey they
Have those patches I used to go to a lot of high school hockey Gibs those are good time the best they they really that’s awesome cuz you got a guy on your team who might not be that skilled but he’s going to try to start a fight with
Somebody so at least got a little bit of action the other students that are from the other team that are going to be there little there’s always a little edginess beef yeah there’s always a little edginess and then whenever inevitably somebody slots one home in an ugly fashion there’s going to be some
Drama it’s going to be it was electrifying those hockey games and then you watch those Minnesota ones and it’s like they really get after it over there oh yeah that’s a big deal it’s like Texas high school football yeah Bingo kind of like I mean you can make the
Argument like high school basketball in Indiana how seriously they take it here 7 8,000 people yeah in gymnasiums here in high school basketball in Indiana it’s wild yeah it is that’s why like the hooer is not being good like what are we doing yeah he should be good he should
Figure out how to be good with how they feel about basketball we got one team with Purdue which is nice true yeah but you got to have family that want to Purdue here in Indiana to be a boiler maker everybody hears a hooer until a generation changes it but Ed can change
Some people I hat he’s got the opportunity let’s go Edie who was saying he k i I said I hate both of the teams uh like the whole IU until they both suck they both won’t win anything all right that’s that’s very negative well I mean let’s end

what's up with AJ's teeth
Fellas, new (female) viewer here… started watching in January. I know football is your specialty, but wow so surprised that y'all didn't even know if the NCAA men's bball tournament started yet 😅 We are finishing up our conference tourneys now. (Go Tar Heels!) Really enjoy listening to you guys. Thanks for teaching me an extra thing or two about football!
Are you gonna have the sandy hook denier on to explain to us how it was faked by the government?
Lombo is the best.
Yall spent 8 mins talking about a picture of aaron rodgers in costa rica. Smh
They still get talked about for doing absolutely nothing. Why not chat how the now have to figure out how to stop Eckler and Barkley all of a sudden. Washington is tightening up the shipwreck very wisely. Philly's ready to Slap around the Cowboys as is. They should have at least gotten a RB. It's crazy really. But I'm glad. Lol. Hail to the Redskins.
I’m over here dying at 2am 😂❤️😵love the show man
Next time I’ll do it with the eyes closed , that’s the whole thought there 😂😢😮
Did AJ get the Compton/Lewan mouth treatment?
Haha Gump. Stars blowing a lead? You love to see it!
When coach bill was inviting everyone to the roast, someone said “and mitt”? I lost it
Pat, Poyer is 100% in Costa Rica. He posted a whole edited video of it 😂
Talking about living forever, I don't like how no one ever talks about how dying is the leading cause of death
Maybe the secret service would be a better O line for Rodger’s I mean why not 35 td while VP
Should’ve asked him about his dad
What happened behind the scenes with the word "YEET" and why do i feel like it has to do with Mitt?
They’ve been letting gumpy have it recently lmao
Funny to see how excited Ty gets about food in Iowa City knowing it might start leaking out an hour after consumption! “Be a friend and stop a friend from eating a burrito “
What's up with AJ's teeth
A.j don’t know what to do with his new teeth. Noticed Hawkers speech was different when he was in the studjo 😂
Dbutt is butt at giving away money. His effort and body language looks like he doesn't care.
Foxy should talk more
Do we get bonus points for freezing with the show
Luke Combs telling the truth for us Panthers fans.
