Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, part of my take listeners. You can find every episode on Apple podcasts, Spotify or YouTube. Prime members can listen, add free on Amazon music. On today's part in my take, we have Houston Texans head coach, Domingo Ryan's great interview with coach Ryan's. We've been big Domingo Ryan's fans for a while. So it was awesome to have them on. We're going to talk some playoff baseball.
Starting point is 00:00:25 It has begun. We are going to talk some college football, college football Wednesdays. We talk who should be number one big games coming up this weekend. We have hot seat, cool throne. There's some stuff to talk about there that's happened with this podcast the last couple days. And then we are going to finish with Jim Bose and before we get to all of that, the farmer's that, the farmer's dog, the results of switching your dog's food from kibble to fresh can seem like magic when a senior dog starts acting like a puppy again and the pickiest eaters can't wait for dinner time, you might think some spells were cast but the farmer's dog doesn't
Starting point is 00:01:00 use any sorcerer's secret ingredients to make their fresh food. Just science, I use a farmer's dog with Stella. We switched to it actually before farmer's dog even came on. She loves it. I know Blake eats farmer's dog. Dogs love farmer's dog. It is the best option for dogs of all life stages. It's not kibble. It's not kangoo.
Starting point is 00:01:19 It's just real healthy food. Traditional dry and wet dog food options are highly processed. Can use much lower quality ingredients than they claim to. Why would you feed your dog something that isn't the best? The farmer's dog is the best. It's not just fresh, higher quality food. They also send the food pre-proportions, specifically for your dog,
Starting point is 00:01:41 based on their unique nutritional needs. It's super, super easy. A fresh diet has been found to have all sorts of benefits from healthier coat and skin to better breath, even easier digestion and smaller, better poops. I can tell you, I know this for a fact when we switched Stella, she started eating more, she started feeling more energetic.
Starting point is 00:01:59 It's all because of the farmer's dog. So thank you to the farmer's dog. It doesn't matter if your dog is young or old, it's always the right time to begin investing in their health, helping you live more healthy, happy and full years together. Let's be honest, dogs are part of your family. Why not give them the best food? Again, it's super, super easy. You go online, you fill out the questionnaire, you get whatever food you want for your dog and they deliver it in freeze-dried packages that you can pop in the freezer and then pop out
Starting point is 00:02:25 and that you have fresh food for your dog. So get 50% off your first box of fresh healthy food at the Farmers Dog dot com slash PMT plus you get free shipping. Just go to the Farmers Dog dot com slash PMT to get 50% off. That's the Farmers Dog dot com slash PMT. Okay, let's go I'm a And then I can't All on the Sun Oh, no, we're gonna rock
Starting point is 00:03:08 Down to He let Shrek I ran you And then we're taking higher Oh, we're gonna rock Down to He let Shrek It's part of my take.
Starting point is 00:03:24 There's an about our sports. Welcome to part of my take today is Wednesday, October 4th and the Minnesota twins have won a playoff game. I know we're going to talk about the Phillies. I know Max thought we were going to start doing the said and screaming at everyone and be like, said, said, said, don't go into the bank, but we have to start with the twins. The twins have broken the streak of 18 post season losses in a row. The last time they won a game was 2004 in the ALDS game. One, Johann Santana was on the bump. And then tonight they win and their pitcher, I believe Pablo Lopez, yes, showed up to the stadium in a
Starting point is 00:04:07 Johan Santana jersey, congrats, twins fans. That is the longest streak in all of professional sports and it's finally gone. Yeah, I mean, you took everything I was going to say. Like, oh, in 18 was there's no streak that's been longer across any sport. You can name it. The star of the night, you know, who it was, it was my man Royce. Yeah. Two dingers, two dingers, it's the third time that's been done in Major League Baseball history to lead off your postseason career with
Starting point is 00:04:38 back-to-back home runs. So Royce Lewis had it and one of the other guys that had it was Gary Guyetti, also for the twins. The rat. You guys remember the rat? Yeah. Yes. So the rat did it.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Roy's did it. Good vibes. Good vibes from Minnesota. They deserve this. They deserve this. It was like that. 18 games is unfathomable. 2004 is a long ass time and again, it wasn't just series losses.
Starting point is 00:05:04 It was literally game losses they were in the postseason a ton of times and they lost every single time the games so yeah it's good that they got the monkey off their back hopefully they win again get to the next round the we do actually though so the streaks it was 18 games for the twins, the Black Ox and the 70s had 16 losses in a row. The pistons actually have a record going right now. So they're on streak watch. They have 14 games in counting of playoff losses, and that is two present day. So hopefully the pistons can win a game because that is like, I know that we make the,
Starting point is 00:05:41 we have the debate like would you rather team be bad or make the playoffs like I actually think that making the playoffs and losing every single game is the worst fate of any fan base like I would rather be the worst team and just be like I can just erase it for my memory draft picks whatever you want to sell yourself on getting being good enough to get to the playoffs and then not winning a game for more than almost two decades that is is the work. So congrats to twins fans. I hope you guys win this next one and get to the LDS and you keep going. Well, especially in baseball, it's the worst because in baseball, you played the longest season of all and then you fight, you scratch, you claw, you put so much effort, so much like all your hopes and dreams going to playoff push.
Starting point is 00:06:23 You live and die with every at bat and every game. And there's so many of them. And then you get to the playoffs and like the next day, boom, you lose, to after that, boom, you lose, to after that, boom, you lose, now you're home again. Like in football, at least, you know, there's not as many games and you get to the playoffs and you can enjoy that one full week
Starting point is 00:06:39 in between the end of the regular season and the start of the playoffs to read the articles, listen to every morning show. Just feel like you accomplished something with the season. And baseball, of the playoffs to read the articles, listen to every morning show, just feel like you accomplished something with the season. And baseball, if you make the wildcard round, you get swept, it's like, yeah, it's like twisting the knife. And then when it keeps going when you lose
Starting point is 00:06:54 and you celebrate clenching because there is that celebration every year when you clench in baseball and to lose. So yeah, I'm happy for twins fans, they deserve it. Minnesota fans deserve it. And yeah, where I should we, I am rooting for the Orioles, but maybe I'll be like a, because I think they're in the different bracket, right? So they wouldn't have to play each other. Is that right, Jake? Look that up. Maybe I'll just be a twins guy until twins to,
Starting point is 00:07:19 to win this series and then beat the Astros. That's what we should be a twins over Astros. Guys like cast. Oh, I mean, I asked for a little bit of Astros. Still, I'm not sure. Astros. Let's get the twins C.L.C.S. Let's root hard for the twins. Yes. And also I became like a temporary twins fan earlier tonight after they won.
Starting point is 00:07:37 And I went down a little rabbit hole and I was listening to the home team radio calls of the home runs that were hit. nothing better than a home team baseball radio call, nothing in the world. And these guys were flipping out. Just guys in the booth nutting to the moon. It was incredible. They were so, so pumped up because it was like the very first home run that was hit was like a weight got lifted off the entire stadium because everyone that everyone before the
Starting point is 00:08:01 game was like nervous. There was a lot of nervous energy going through there. But I don't think that the players on the field are nervous between Roy Lewis. You mentioned the picture, supporting the Johann Santana. I'm really glad to see you. And who's the guy on the twins that's like a hometown guy
Starting point is 00:08:14 that grew up as like a diehard fan of the twins? Joe, my thinking might have, no, no, no. But a different guy. The twins always get those, dudes. There's a guy on the twin. I don't know who it was. That was, I think he might have been at the game in 2004 that they won as like a kid. I don't know,
Starting point is 00:08:30 but that's a cool story. That's a very cool story. I love that part of baseball. Not Joe Mauer. Who's the other guy? It was Joe Mauer and Walner is an off-fielder from Forest Lake, Minnesota. And they have two pictures from Minnesota. Caleb Thielbar and Louis Varlind. I think it was Thielbar all. I think Thielbar was the one that I was reading about earlier. Joe Mauer was sick at football too. I remember that. Remember the use of plays is football highlights because he was from Minnesota. All right. So also if the twins can get to the
Starting point is 00:08:59 ALCS, we get the bonus. Nothing better than like bitterly cold playoff baseball. I love that. I know it's a sicko move, but when it's like 45 degrees and everyone's bundled up, that just there's something about that that's just great. All right. Still an insane move on the part of the twins to play games outdoors and just just the case that something like this would happen. You're going to get pictures wearing like two warm up jackets if they ever get on base, which won't happen. Bring back the dome
Starting point is 00:09:27 with the Plexiglass, Kirby Puckett, put the whole team on his back. So Max, the bank said, Philly's win. You need a new third base coach. He stinks. Yeah, that was bad. He was over three tonight. Bryce just. He's just. He's just being like at the end and the whatever was that bottom of the eighth being like, fuck this guy. He's so off. I'm just running right through it. And he was so safe. Yeah, I mean, that was a no brainer. Obviously, Bryce is going to go there. I do, I do love the taking off your helmet midway through second and third just because you think that it gets
Starting point is 00:10:02 you more speed. No shot that it does, but it feels better and it looks cooler. And the hair, um, he does it because of the hair. He does because. Well, I mean, that's why he looks great regardless. No, like whenever you would charge the mount, he always flips the hat off. Yeah. He looks great regardless. The hair looks great coming out of the back of the back of the helmet also. So I don't want to, you know, say that one looks better than the other,
Starting point is 00:10:24 but the bank was great. I mean, that's, right now, say that one looks better than the other, but the bank was great. I mean, that's, right now, that's one of the best, that's one of like the hardest environments and professional sports. Oh, here we go. Like Facebook at the bank is one of the hardest environments and professional sports. It's different.
Starting point is 00:10:38 It's different than any other stadium. 500% eight. When I was in the last year in the playoffs at the bank, don't worry about it. I'm just curious if anything, no, we won a lot of games at the bank. We last year in the playoffs at the bank? Don't worry about it. I'm just curious if anything, no, we're not. We won a lot of games at the bank. We won a lot of games at the bank. Wait, how, how, what keep going?
Starting point is 00:10:51 How is it different? I mean, you just see it. It feels different. It sounds different. The vibes. Did you like it as anything to do with the fact that your favorite team plays there? No, no.
Starting point is 00:11:03 Other people are saying it too. I will give Philly some credit. Philly deserves an assist. They showed this graphic on the broadcast a couple times. They had the trade turner sat on there. Remember we talked about when Philly gave him the standing ovation, just like it's our cast at Gov. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:18 So, it was August 4th. And through August 3rd, he was hitting 235, 657 OPS, 10 home runs and a strikeout rate of 24%. Since Philly did everything they could, they broke glass in case of emergency and said, you know what, we've tried being a dickhead to this guy. Maybe we should try to support our guy. They gave him a standing ovation.
Starting point is 00:11:39 And since then, in the 48 games, he's hit 337 OPS of 1.057 home7, 16 home runs, 17% strikeout rate down from 24%. So it worked. Good job, Philly. Good job, Philly. Yeah, I told you, I told you it was going to work. Yeah, you just wanted to do that with every player. Because, you know, baseball is a different sport. I already had this whole discussion. Well, baseball is a different sport. It's about confidence. Booming doesn't do anything for a baseball player. For a football player, getting booed gets a little drive and you get a little angry. You'll maybe get a little push on the guy next to you and baseball is a mental game. It's a game of confidence. So what about basketball? I didn't play basketball at a high level.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Can't tell you. I can only tell you the sports that I am playing in my home. Matt's here to the CAA. I feel like sarcastically cheering a made foul shot from a guy that sucks when the free throw line. I think that plays. I think the guy actually interprets that as, yeah, they're actually applauding for me. Oh, yeah, Ben Simmons used to get that ordeal all the time. Yeah, and it worked that great for him. Yeah, he's doing awesome these days. So you
Starting point is 00:12:53 did. But Zach Wheeler was awesome. His sweeper, which I is just a it's a slider. It's sweet slider, but they we call it a sweeper down way better. but they we call it a sweeper down way better sweeper sounds way better than his life. His sweeper did look like a wiffle ball a couple times. Yeah sick. Yeah, he was nasty. So you feel good who's on the bump tomorrow? Ranger? No, I wish it was I mean, I know it was good. It's just either looks like the best pitcher in baseball or the worst every time he goes out. But you know, play off. You got to think that he's going to bring his ice stuff to him. You got a cheer.
Starting point is 00:13:26 I like to move by Kimberl in the ninth, the intentional ball. I don't know what that I've ever seen that before. Yeah, that was cool. He just dropped the ball. It was it was awesome. So what was the thinking behind that? Why would you? Why would you just advance the runner from second to third?
Starting point is 00:13:39 I said it's set. Go ahead, Max. You go ahead. No, no, I was going to I was going to take a wild guess. So I don't know if you know, I think it's actually baseball at a high level. Yeah, but yeah. So, um, I think that he was getting he had a sense of the guy on second base was tipping off pitches. I was going to say yeah, and I at the yeah, that's the only thing that would make sense. That's the only thing that makes sense that he's if you're if the guy on second base is just given a little tip to the battery. In football, can you decline a ball? Oh, that would
Starting point is 00:14:10 be cool. But then you basically are admitting that that's what you're doing. Yeah, true. Basically saying, but come prove it exactly what I'm doing. I guess you also could make the argument max. Maybe if there's a if there's a grounder in the infield, like a runner trying to run like right in front of him right before in his eye line to get the last out. But yeah, it's probably tipping. I don't like that. Yeah. I also, I also was thinking it might be more comfortable as like a picture pitching out of the stretch, just having the guy and your eye, I,
Starting point is 00:14:41 in your what's the word? You got this line of vision. Yeah. A lot of Yeah, a lot of vision rather than like having to turn. Yeah, yeah, but I'm just sorry. All right, hear me out here. If you're going to be committing a bulk though, if that's the case, why wouldn't you just like, not care about the runner trying to steal third and what kind of lead that he has
Starting point is 00:14:59 and just act like he's not there? It could just be a comfort thing. I don't think you really cared regardless. Yeah. Yeah. Obviously, you're also in a box. So the other games, uh, I'm counting, I'm counting the diamond backs as that was a Dan Heron win. So, uh, it was a little curious why they started their guy.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Uh, I don't even know how to say his name. Can you get it for me, Jake? PFA DT. It might be J. O'Connell, how you say, name. Can you get it for me, Jake? PFADT. He might be Jero Conno how you say, I looked it up earlier actually, and it was fought. Like a British person saying it fought. Fart fought. Fart, I fought it.
Starting point is 00:15:35 I fought it. But either way, everyone's like, what the hell this guy stinks. He pitched two and two thirds, and then their bullpen completely shut down the brewers. I'm just counting this as Dan Heron. I think this was yeah. Dan Heron probably made this entire plan. He's like, let's start fart and then we will throw in the bullpen and we'll shut them down.
Starting point is 00:15:54 You could make the argument with Dan Heron because he's probably all about pitching death, right? Right. He probably does a lot with the guys coming out of the bullpen. So, credited Dan Heron. What I'm more concerned about with this is we have a stadium controversy, a stadium conflict schedule that's going to be rearing its ugly head in case the diamondbacks advance. So if they advance game three of the series that I think would be against the Dodgers the series that I think would be against the Dodgers would be at Chase Field on the same date that Guns and Roses is scheduled to play there. So we've got a real battle of the Titans that Diamondbacks first Guns and Roses,
Starting point is 00:16:31 I would actually, you could make the argument that Guns and Roses concert in Phoenix would have a bigger economic impact. Yeah, I'd agree. I'd agree. Then a Diamondbacks game, because you get, you get all the people taking the ubers cabs there plus the people that get DUIs on the way back from it that would contribute
Starting point is 00:16:49 to the local economy. And I would imagine that like 90% of people in the Phoenix area playing on a tinnig because it rose concert. Yeah. So we in the brewers Corbin Burns wasn't good and we had Marlins man there which he called me live during the game. Inviting us to game three or game two and three. I don't know if we'll be able to make it where we're going to have to text him but he did make that invite. He is there. He's sitting
Starting point is 00:17:15 there with front row Amy. So I mean, the Marlins aren't in the playoffs so he's going to he's going to show up somewhere. He's got to be there. He's got to be there. We were talking about it before like people forget the Marlins forced Marlins manned hand when he offered them a blank check to do Marlins manned day where he gets to throw out the first pitch with all the mermaids surrounding him and Derek cheaters it get out of my office. So this is we stand with Marlins man. Like if he doesn't want to root for the Marlins because what they did to him, I'm on Marlins man's side. I think he was only asking for like five season tickets for free.
Starting point is 00:17:51 It was enough for him and like all of his cats. And it was, it was really a headscratcher when Geter comes into town. Like you think Geter's bigger and Florida than Marlins man is? No man, you're a Yankee. Marlins man, he is the Marlins. He is the Marlins and the Mermaid. So he tweeted. Yeah, he tweeted that he thought it would be the Marlins playing in Milwaukee. His travel plans were already made. Well, that's you can't see that coming. It did come down to like the last day of the season or second last day of the season. Yeah. So, okay, Justice from Orleans, man. And then in Tampa, we got a bad sports town watch. 19,000
Starting point is 00:18:28 people at the top today. Mm-hmm. 19,000 people. That's tough. There was there was also like a clip of all the wives of the players trying to like pump up the crowd and no one was doing anything. And it was just like shit. Yes. I mean, I, it's like once Tom Brady leaves town,
Starting point is 00:18:47 nobody cares about sports there anymore. I kind of, I was seeing people arguing about it online and I do understand the idea that it was a two day notice and they always stick the rays with the like three o'clock, two o'clock in the afternoon game on a weekday, which, you know, people have jobs and it's not easy to just be like, I'm getting off work for the race, but 19,000 is tough. That's tough for a plan. That is tough. Aren't they planning on putting like $1.2 billion into the new stadium there?
Starting point is 00:19:17 Yeah, that's like proof, right? Yeah, it's great. I think I read that. Either way, please, I think it was pretty much the, please don't move our team to Nashville Stadium. I think that's where it was. That's exactly right. So playoff baseball's back October's the best month. Boys, did you know, I don't know if anyone's pointing this out to you a million times, but starting tomorrow, 50 straight days of football.
Starting point is 00:19:40 That's pretty good. Cause we got, yeah, we got what conference USA? We got belt, I think starts playing on Wednesdays too. And yeah, I'm going to look real quick. Who else is playing? Because I don't think Maxion starts this early. Jacksonville State, middle Tennessee State played tomorrow night. And then they and then middle Tennessee State plays on Tuesday. Yes, so they're going to start doing sun belt on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Starting point is 00:20:04 Ah, the best, the best. see state plays on Tuesday. Yes. So they're going to start doing sun belt on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Ah, the best, the best. Maxion doesn't start usually until November, but 50 straight days of football on TV. You can find a football game for the next 50 straight days. Think about that. Isn't that beautiful? It's pretty great. It's pretty beautiful. I also want people to remember as bad as Monday night football was because it was it was It was really bad the official prognosis coming out of it is I think medically speaking Daniel Jones is asked Yeah, no he's super ass. Yeah, he is ass and
Starting point is 00:20:38 It's very funny to picture the giants fans that like boo Daniel Jones on draft night that then had to go back and be like I was wrong about booing Daniel Jones on Draft Night last year and now they have to be like, fuck, I already took back my boo of Daniel Jones on Draft Night, I can't be right about that anymore. It was an ugly game. The only good part of the game, I know a big cat you saw this, true lock getting in.
Starting point is 00:20:58 Yes. I still believe in true lock. I think I had a take that he would make five probals on this show. So you're never wrong about a take until you give up on it. Let that be a lesson to the Giants fans out there. I still think Drew Lock could possibly make five probals. He should have, they should have kept them in the game just for the viewers because when Drew Lock comes in a game, the volatility of that game goes through the roof, whether
Starting point is 00:21:24 it be great Drew Lock plays or terrible Drew Lock plays, the volatility of that game goes through the roof, whether it be great drew block plays or terrible drew lock plays, the giants though. It's always funny watching, like we as football fans, when rooting for our team, we make all the excuses, we talk ourselves into everything. And then watching from afar, another fan base and seeing them do the same thing. And you're like, you guys are fucking stupid. Like all the giants fans saying it was the offensive line and all this, like Daniel Jones was asked last night. He, he, a lot of the sacks were his fault. The fumble, the interception on the goal line, like he sucked.
Starting point is 00:21:57 I know the offensive line isn't good, but as someone who does the same thing, where I'm like, no weapons, no offensive line, when you take a step back, it looks really dumb when your quarterback just isn't good right now. And I don't know if Daniel Jones, like last year he was, he was good, but you paid a lot of money to him. Sequans got to just be so pissed watching him be ass and be like, yeah, that's my money. I should have had some of that money.
Starting point is 00:22:21 But yeah, the giants are in like, like they they had a great season last year to win a playoff game. And now it feels like they're back in despair. And the even the boat pictures going back around people are getting to there's one guy who just tweeted out the boat picture. And he's like, it's insane. The giants are 11 and 94 since this picture was taken. And people were quote treating it. And then if you just went to his Twitter, the guy just wrote underneath, he's like, I love just putting out this information. Because they have been that bad. They have been that bad that like,
Starting point is 00:22:51 it's gotten so ridiculous whenever you see the boat picture, you just expect a terrible record next to it. And no one's really keeping track at this point because that was what? That was like 10 years ago. Was that like seven, eight years ago? That was seven years ago. That was seven years ago. That was seven years ago? That was seven years ago. Go picture Odell.
Starting point is 00:23:05 Was that Odell's last full season? That was like 16. So seven years ago. 15 or 16. So now, yeah, you could just make up any numbers and people will believe it. Yeah. Yeah. Speaking of misinformation, can put on line, did you see the Matt Canada news?
Starting point is 00:23:20 Yeah. So somebody, so I saw the Twitter account and Apparently allegedly Matt Canada has a Twitter account I took screenshots of it in case it gets deleted But somebody somebody found the Twitter account and then other people Started to like put the dots together and this one guy said I checked the email address that was associated with it It looks like it could be like M dot Like star star star star star at Steelers.com or something like that.
Starting point is 00:23:49 That guy made that up. If you looked at his account, it was just like, I'm a parody account in a bio. But I looked at, it's Dan Robbins, Danny Football 77. Danny Football was a handle. And all this guy does is just reply. I think it might be, we might have reached the point on the internet where people are now making fake burner accounts for people.
Starting point is 00:24:08 So that people will be like, Oh, shit, that's got to be Matt Canada, because all he cares about is defending Matt Canada. Well, it's also, yeah, it's also a point where like anything, anyone who treats anything positive about a public figure, they're like, nice burner. Yeah, could that possibly be? How could you actually like this person? Cause if I were making a Matt Canada burner account, I would do the exact same thing, something like Danny football 77 and then his profile pic is just a flat brim Steelers new era hat, which is great. It's so great. Oh, man. All right, anything else before we kick it to ourselves for hot sea cool throne, oh, we should mention the Trevor Bauer situation is crazy. And yeah,
Starting point is 00:24:55 like that video was not said he released, he got completely railroaded by it seems like everyone, the media, especially jumping to every conclusion. I hope he gets to be able to play in the M.B. again, because that was nuts. The whole thing was scary and nuts. Yeah, and the woman that did it to him is, that really sucks, too, is that because she did that, now everybody that has a legitimate complaint, they're going to be like, no, making it up. Trevor Bauer, they're going to use that.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Yeah. Exactly. They'll say it up. Trevor Bauer, they're gonna use that. Yeah, exactly. They'll say it's a Trevor Bauer situation. So yeah, like we didn't discuss the Trevor Bauer story when it happened on the show because you don't know what's actually going on. And it takes a really fucking long time for the facts to come out about things sometimes. And yeah, I was watching the video
Starting point is 00:25:40 and I was like, holy shit, like this is as damning as it gets. Yeah, yeah. So yeah, hopefully he gets to play an MLB again. It was, that was nuts. Um, and hopefully people who took him down the way they did, like retract. I don't know if you can at this point, there's really nothing. You can't really put the toothpaste back in the tube here, but I would hope that at least some of them would be like, Hey, maybe I should change how I do things and report on things. Uh, I think what happened was tre- a lot of people would be like, hey, maybe I should change how I do things and report on things. I think what happened was a lot of people didn't like Trevor Bauer.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Yeah. And so they heard this story and it was like, oh yeah, that makes sense, that guy sucks, I don't like him. And so they put out all kinds of reports using like very dubiously sourced material and reading into like the medical reports, facts that weren't in the medical reports, and it was all based on the fact that they didn't like Trevor Bauer.
Starting point is 00:26:28 And it's okay to not like Trevor Bauer. I think like when we interviewed him on the show, we came off being like, well Trevor Bauer's a weird guy, but I think I kind of like him afterwards. Yeah, he's eccentric. Yeah, and he's not everyone. Not everyone's gonna like the guy, but just because you don't like somebody
Starting point is 00:26:44 doesn't mean that whatever facts are being presented are actually the truth. Yeah, yeah, so that deserved a mention for sure. All right, should we kick it to ourselves? Oh, Jake, Jake. Yeah, we have our selection for our full page out. It's gonna be the Miami Ohio Student Newspaper. We just have to brainstorm the creative side

Starting point is 00:33:12 Okay. College football PFT. I have a question for you to start. Yes. Michigan is winning the national championship. I, I, I think they might, uh, and I'm hoping they do. So Jim Harba will leave the college game. He's proven everything he has to prove. My question for you is, as of right now,
Starting point is 00:33:31 who should be the number one team in the country? I actually think it should be the Texas Longhorns. Okay, so I have it down to three. Okay. Texas Longhorns are one of them. Cause right now is Georgia, Michigan. Michigan actually got a bunch of votes to be number one. So they're trending towards getting the number one ranking, which would
Starting point is 00:33:48 be the first time since 1997 when they won a split national title with Nebraska. The Texas salon horns are on my list. Also on my list are the Ohio State buckais. If we're going off of best wins, the buckais winning at Notre Dame might be more impressive than Texas winning at Alabama, depending on how Alabama season goes. It's very close. And then the last one is Florida State should be considered, I believe. They have two very good wins. Obviously, those teams now have lost twice each, but they beat LSU, killed LSU on a neutral site, and they beat Clemson at Clemson. Those are the three teams. I don't think it should be Georgia. I don't think it should be Michigan. Even though Michigan is out of this world good,
Starting point is 00:34:31 fun fact about Michigan. They are making the opposing offense go three and out 45% of the time and no team has run a play inside the 10 yard line of Michigan's side of the field. Yeah, that's pretty good. They're taking care of business. They don't have any good wins, but that's just because they haven't played any good teams yet. They've just been spanking all the bad teams
Starting point is 00:34:53 that they've been playing, which is exactly what you should do. Texas, Dave, I think the win at Alabama, I would put that over the Ohio State win at Notre Dame. Notre Dame looks good, Notre Dame. Notre Dame, they off against a really good duke to you. Yeah, they're good. Notre Dame's definitely very, very good. I would just give the edge to the Long Horns in that situation.
Starting point is 00:35:12 I want to see Michigan and Texas in the national championship. It would rule. I think that would be awesome to have a title game that doesn't have Alabama, Georgia, or Ohio State in it. Yeah. It would be good to see that switch up a little bit. Yeah. So I also think that Georgia might lose one game or two games maybe this year. I so they look very
Starting point is 00:35:28 beatable. The problem is their schedule. Yeah, they're schedule is they play Kentucky. They they play basically no one Kentucky. I think it's on there. I think they have Tennessee at home or no Tennessee at Tennessee. So that will be a tough game. I think they play Kentucky at home. Yeah, they play Kentucky at home this weekend Vanderbilt at Florida home against Mizzou games neutral Jacksonville. Oh, yeah, yeah home against Mississippi and Away against Tennessee not yeah, you could actually I might agree with you like they Georgia has it's it's now Georgia has, it's, it's now, or this could beat them. They could lose at Tennessee. Although Lane Kiffin just winning those big games. That game, that LSU Ole Miss games.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Awesome. If you're not a college football fan, those are the games that you are so desperately missing out on because that was pure offense, craziness, insane plays. LSU's defense is an absolute dumpster fire. Brian Kelly, hot seat. It could go south on him hot seat. He won't he can't get any more South than he already is but he's definitely my family. My family. I'm a side coach. He if you're an LSU fan you would probably rather you would rather rather lose a game like that if at least your defense at LSU was awesome. Yeah because they've had a good a great defense for so long down there
Starting point is 00:36:46 And then if you're losing games just giving up a billion yards Then you're like what the fuck is like you're you're still getting the same recruits like as long as you recruit the state of Louisiana Your defense should be elite and they stink. They're just really really bad defensively. I could say I'm going through the list right now I could see Georgia. I'm not saying they're going to lose. I'm saying I could see them. Big difference. It means I can't be held accountable if I'm wrong. I could see them losing to Kentucky. I could see them losing to Florida.
Starting point is 00:37:13 That's rivalry, man. I couldn't. I could see it. I really nape yours. Got a problem in Florida. I could smoke by Kentucky. But they're like up and down, up and down. I could see them losing to Mizu. I can see them losing to Mizu.
Starting point is 00:37:25 I can see them losing to Ole Miss. And I can see them losing to Tennessee. Because like, you have them at four losses? I actually have them at one loss already because I give them a half a loss for Auburn. For Auburn, and I also give them a half a loss for South Carolina. The Brock Bowers though is so fucking good.
Starting point is 00:37:41 I know he won't win the Heisman, but the fact that like those are moments where I those are Heisman type moments when you're playing it all burn and nothing's working and you're like, let's just smash the Brock powers button and they kept on smashing it. He had like eight catches for 147 yards and a touchdown and he made one catch that was out of this world good. So he is there like fail safe. But yeah, Georgia, you might be right that Georgia, we all thought that their schedule isn't easy, but there are a couple games in there. All right, I'll go. They're gonna lose one game. Okay. That's the names as a Georgia fan. Who's the one name said? I'm gonna say a combo of
Starting point is 00:38:24 Kentucky Tennessee Ole Miss. Because if they, let's say they lose the Ole Miss, they still have a shot to make it to the place. Oh, of course. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, because they just got to win the SC championship. I actually, yeah, because if they lose them, Ole Miss is in the West. Right. I actually think that even if they lose the Tennessee, because Tennessee might have too, Tennessee already lost the Florida. So if Tennessee catches another lost and they only lost to Tennessee, that would be fine. Yeah, I think that, so I think they're based. Tennessee won't, this upcoming weekend,
Starting point is 00:38:51 but it's at home. Cause Kentucky's just hot right now, and then Tennessee at Tennessee. Yeah, I could, I could see Brock Bowers winning the Heisman or at least being like a close finalist in the Heisman. Invited, it's New York. Yeah, invited, if like they keep barely winning games and they don't have anybody else that's carrying the offense
Starting point is 00:39:11 and then in the second half of all these games, they're just like, oh yeah, Brock Bauer's is the best player, maybe in college football all around, besides Caleb Williams. Yes. Let's just put the ball in his hands and let him do his thing. And then we also have so the Red River shootout rivalry. I think we still have a red.
Starting point is 00:39:27 Yeah, the Red River rivalry, which is really easy to say, is this weekend, which would be perfect for Texas being looking very, very good. And also Texas is like not under the radar, but it hasn't been all the talk. You know, they obviously beat Alabama. That was a big weekend for them. They handled Kansas, Baylor.
Starting point is 00:39:47 They're going about their business for them to lose to Oklahoma would be perfectly Texas. Yeah, at the Texas State Fair. Have you ever been to the Texas State Fair? I have not. I'd like to go. It's got everything fried there. It's awesome.
Starting point is 00:39:58 They fry butter. They deep fry butter at the state fair. I love it. They deep fry cool-aid pickles at the, that one's actually not as good as the butter. But people just walking around with basically, like in an entire leg from a pig, that's just covered in batter
Starting point is 00:40:12 and just soaked in hot oil for about five minutes. And it's incredible. It's a great place to go. I think that this year, I mean, anything could happen in this game because it's just such like a unique environment. But I think that Texas is so good defensively that they should be able to get the job done. I still like Dylan Gabriel. I like him from when he was at UCF.
Starting point is 00:40:32 There's something about him. He's got some kind of swag. He's the perfect guy for this type of game where you can just have a game that's just like, what the fuck Dylan Gabriel. Out West, the other thing. So Colorado kind of safe face with the way they played against USC only losing by seven. And USC now, I think the discussion is, is Lincoln Riley liable for malpractice for having one of the best college quarterbacks, maybe of all time, if he goes back to back, heisman and kale Williams and never having a defense behind it because that defense is So bad and they are going to be in some games like going to Notre Dame is not gonna be easy Like there there are some games that USC feels like hey, we have a team
Starting point is 00:41:18 We have a quarterback that could be a national title type of quarterback and I don't think they're gonna survive their schedule Because I just don't think their defense can stop anyone. I think USC is pumped to have a coach like that. That's what you need at USC. It's like, it's the complete practice though. It might be malpractice, but it's like the complete opposite of what LSU's done. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:37 So like LSU would be happy, like having closed games as long as their defense was awesome, keeping the minute, they might not be happy, but they might not be as upset as they are right now at USC. If you're lighting up the scoreboard, they don't really give a shit if you're giving up 30 points a game. Yeah, they don't care about that. And we have, I mean, the pack troughs gonna be awesome. Next weekend is Oregon, Washington, which will be a big deciding factor of how that all plays out. But yeah, Utah goes down Oregon State, you know, bounces back. Washington
Starting point is 00:42:06 state still really good. It's going to be, I'm very excited for October and November football. Yeah. College football is buzzing right now. PNX versus NIX. That's going to be a great matchup. Yes. There'll be some great signs on game day. Did you guys see, we need to get this guy on P.M.T. He's an all time football guy. I think it was the Charlotte head coach who wears a cut off his name is Biff Paji Yeah, he wears a cut off shirt. There's hot out Biff Paji and I think someone what go ahead memes that's a Harbors he was like the Harbors number one Michigan. He, there was a HBO documentary about him too.
Starting point is 00:42:46 We gotta get him on. He coached a private school in Baltimore. He like helped build their facilities and they would just smoke teams. I want him on. He's just got a great look. Not to get all Billy football, but someone replied when I posted a picture of him,
Starting point is 00:43:01 he was like, the best part about him is he's like a multi-multimillionaire who doesn't need to coach, but he just loves to coach. I don't know if that's true. Well, what you just described was every single head coach. Well, no, because he has never been a big time head coach. So I don't know, he's never been,
Starting point is 00:43:16 like he's head coach is Charlotte, and he was an assistant coach at a bunch of places. So he's never been like the big time contract. Right. He gets paid like half a million bucks a year, which over the course of I would imagine he's been in football for a long time. But his stops are Citadel assistant Gilman School in Maryland, which means you said assistant Gilman School head coach Michigan analyst St. Francis Academy Michigan associate head coach Charlotte. That doesn't seem like a ton of money coaching. So someone tell me if he actually has.
Starting point is 00:43:48 You're probably right, because I'm looking at the first result for Biff Paji contract, and it says Charlotte gives Paji five year deal includes country club membership. Love it. So I don't think that they would include that if he was getting paid a lot of money.
Starting point is 00:44:00 He's also a hedge fund manager. That's what it was. So he is rich on his own. Like in the HBO documentary, they were like, they compared his salary to our ball. And he's like, it's made by a lot. Okay, so he is. So that was true.
Starting point is 00:44:14 So it is, he doesn't need to coach and he just does it and does it in a cut off shirt and his name's Biff. Do you know how good you have to be as a hedge fund manager to get billionaires to trust you with their money if your name is Biff? Yeah. Actually, it might be easy.
Starting point is 00:44:28 I don't know. I forgot. I call you up, it's like, hey, it's Biff Paji. I'm like, okay, done. Well, yeah, but you're not a billionaire. Yeah, I don't. But I, yeah. You got two strikes against you.
Starting point is 00:44:37 One, Biff, second, Italian, probably some discrimination you have to do with there. But then again, billionaires too want to just be like friends with regular guys. So Biff calls you up and he's like, oh, I just got done practice. Probably some discrimination you have to do with there. But then again, billionaires too want to just be like friends with regular guys. So if Biff calls you up and he's like, I just got done practice, we're gonna kill everyone this weekend. You wanna invest 20 million bucks in this new fund?
Starting point is 00:44:54 I think you might be, because then the billionaire can walk around being like, oh yeah, you know that head coach, Biff Paji? He's actually my money guy. Biff Paji. Make some look normal. Hey, this B bif Paji Might be like it better give me some of that money be real shame if something happened to it Yeah, you had it and then it all disappeared somehow. I'm ready for bif Paji. I'll protect you. I'll protect your money now
Starting point is 00:45:14 Who else do we miss talking about Fresno State continues to be undefeated? Nice season going for them. What who else ma'am she got someone? Look up air force. Oh air Air Force. I bet on Air Force every week. They are so fucking good. They're so good. And they passed the ball when they need to, which is very unservice like Academy. They are smoking teams. They are smoking teams. They beat San Diego State by like 30 the other night. And it was they are fun to watch too. They make triple option fun. It's not like a Navy Army where no disrespect to them because they play good, like good fun football, but Air Force finds a way to put up points in the triple option.
Starting point is 00:45:57 Do you remember there? I think there was a coach at Air Force. This is like 2000. He was like an old school guy. He had been there forever. And they asked him like, why can't you guys score any points? And his answer was literally, we need to get more black players because they're fast and they run very fast. And everybody was like, dude, you can't, you can't say that. You're really low. Yeah. Ridiculous time. But, um, does everyone, everyone who goes to Air Force gets a Porsche, did I make that up? I think that's true. Is that true? I might have made that up.
Starting point is 00:46:28 Potential participant in the Barslayer is ownable. Yes, not in West. Can you find out if everyone gets a free Porsche? I might have made that up. I thought there was something like Porsche, there's some Porsche facility not too far from the Colorado Wear Air Force place. I might have made that up, but that sounds cool. Almost made me want to join where Air Force plays. I might have made that out, but that sounds cool.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Almost made me want to join the Air Force. Is that a new thing? No, I heard that a long time ago and I was like, oh, falls, fails, I'll join the Air Force. But I don't think they take just anyone in the Air Force. They get to be pretty small. You have to know planes pretty well, which eliminates both of us.
Starting point is 00:47:01 Yeah. Air Force coach, Fisher DeBerry, express frustration Tuesday with a Falcon Slumping Performance, and it attributed the latest loss in parts, number 20 TCUs, having more black players who can run very, very well. Yeah, yeah. Say that out loud.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Also, Max, how are you feeling about Penn State? Shout out James Franklin. Penn State, shout out James Franklin. I don't know why I'm James Franklin. Because he covered the spread against the New York New York New York New York New York. He had no concern with the fake Nia witch. If you're a college coach,
Starting point is 00:47:31 why wouldn't you always try to cover the spread knowing that all your alumni bet on it? He does. James Franklin knows that. He's aware. It's every single game that would be, if I was a college coach, my first press conference would be like,
Starting point is 00:47:43 look, we're gonna get some big bodies in here, and we're gonna cover spreads. The way that I saw that play developed, it was almost like halfway between a fake Neil and a fake quarterback draw. Yeah. And it was like, what are you doing? Not to mention the pick that was thrown to set that up was one of the, I mean, it was a Northwestern quarterback pick, but like everything that unfolded to get that cover was incredible.
Starting point is 00:48:07 It really was. Cause they were in trouble in the first. Oh yeah. That's why I was asking you. 11 a.m. Are we in Evanston? Are we worried a little bit? Yeah, James Franklin last week,
Starting point is 00:48:16 did we talk about that on the show? No, I don't think we did. It's such a funny move. Yeah, they didn't practice, they practiced with no music and no noise because James Franklin wanted to see if the atmosphere is what got the guys ready to go. Yeah. So there's not going to be any noise in Ryan Field on 11 o'clock kickoff.
Starting point is 00:48:34 So we got to mimic the environment. You ran a scout team crowd for his boys and practice. Actually, yeah. But I mean, at this point, it's like nothing really matters until Ohio State and then Michigan. So it's like they're just going to keep eating, I think, I think they may have, I think they're all, they've a buy this week and then UMass next week and that it nothing matters until Ohio State Michigan. Yeah, Pence, yeah, the big 10 East doesn't really start getting decided until later in October. Yeah. And that's when we're going to get, we're going to get it going. It's going to be on. I'm very excited. And I'll be at 11 o'clock, which is that true? Both. Well, yeah, definitely Michigan and
Starting point is 00:49:10 Ohio State and Penn State, Penn State Ohio State and Penn State, Michigan are both at 11 o'clock. I think they need to get rid of divisions in college football. What do you mean? Like divisions within the conference. Well, they will the legends and leaps. They did in the pack 12. They probably will in the big 10 soon. Yeah, they probably will need to be playing in the champion. Well, they will the legends and leopards. Yeah, I like that. They did in the pack 12. They probably will in the big 10 soon. Yeah, they probably will in the next two teams should be playing in the champion. Well, no, what they should do is now that every team, the big 10 is going to be at 18.
Starting point is 00:49:33 I think the SEC is going to be at 16. It should be pods of four or five and... Then a 14. And then a 14 thing conference play. Yeah. That would be a lot of fun because then you can keep like internal rivalries and all that stuff and you record in the conference and then everyone has feels like they have a chance.
Starting point is 00:49:51 Because that is gonna suck. The only problem with what you're saying is when we get to the 18 team big 10 or 16 team SEC, if you have no divisions, you really feel like you have no chance if you're a bottom team. Yeah. Like, there's no chance.
Starting point is 00:50:09 Like even Wisconsin, I know, is going to be really tough to get to the Big Ten Championship game when there's 18 teams, no division. The maybe do no divisions. And like you said, like top six, make the playoffs. Yeah, something so that everyone else can get a lot of top two get a buy. Yeah. Either way, college football, I've said it before, but this season is going to be because there really isn't
Starting point is 00:50:28 a dominant, dominant team like we've seen in the past. Michigan might be that team, but there's so many good games coming up that are going to be fucking awesome that are going to decide all these conferences. I do love how there's not a dominant like Georgia. We all thought at the start of the season, we're just going to be talking about Georgia. And then the rest of the college football world would be boring as shit Turns out I think we're gonna be in for some chaos that's embedded. I love chaos. He needs that's impenet he was the he was the guy

My hot seat is Jimmy Butler. Oh, why and just heat culture as a whole. This is the second year Jimmy Butler has done this. Yesterday was or Monday was NBA media day, which I like how all the teams do it on the same day.
Starting point is 00:52:27 It's always a fun day of headlines and pictures. And it's also a reminder that we can see how the different teams do stuff. It's a reminder that October's the best month in the world. Yeah. It's just all the sports are here. I always like to behind the scenes videos while they're getting their official team picture taken.
Starting point is 00:52:41 The ones that are taken on like, on like iPhones from the side shown in posing for it, it gives you something to think about later on in the season when you're looking at the team shot. You're like, oh, I remember when they did that picture. Yeah, or like, yeah, the behind the scenes of them, like, you know, dribble the basketball through your legs. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Here comes the wind in your face. I think that what Jay Butt has given us is a gift that's gonna keep on giving throughout the season in the post season when he goes off for like 55 in the playoffs and he's just dunking on people and cussing people out to their face. And then it shows his picture and he looks like Robert Smith from the cure. Well, he did. So he didn't last year too. He wore like the hair extensions or dreads or whatever, which wasn't his actual hair.
Starting point is 00:53:17 And the reason was for that so that when they show, you know, the lineup cards and stuff that they had to show them with the long hair, I think during towards the end of the year, they just stopped doing that and like, used like a picture from 2K or an old picture like. So I think, you know, even though that's, that was his goal. I don't know if it's going to work. I don't know if they're going to. Emo Jimmy Buckecher.
Starting point is 00:53:35 Yeah. So this year, last year did the, uh, the long hair this year. He did, he painted his nails. He did like a emo, put a comb over long hair bangs, bangs, look, and then a reporter, Mike Wallace of Grand City Media came out today and said, 98.9% of the Miami Heat organization was totally uncomfortable with what Jimmy Bell was doing yesterday. What? This is so anti-M Miami Heat culture and what we stand for.
Starting point is 00:54:02 It's fucking media day. It's hilarious. it's funny. Good for Jimmy. He culture. Wait, was it 98.9%? That's a very specific percentage of that. I'm here to let you guys know that grind city media deleted the tweet
Starting point is 00:54:15 where they posted audio of him saying 98.9%. Oh, so maybe they take that back. Grind city, I can't, I can't allow to trust grind city media Jake Marsch is coming in defensive heat culture We're just cuz they deleted the tweet that's more like to heat didn't want that to be public So they're trying to cover their trying to heat culture or I'm trying to click so what she is because we're talking about them. I can't imagine anyone cared Oh, I can Me and the PR people they don't even let their players eat
Starting point is 00:54:44 That's true. They weigh him all the time. He could do whatever he wants. He literally carried them to the NBA finals. I didn't know where. He doesn't want anything though. Carried them to the NBA finals. Okay.
Starting point is 00:54:55 I think he cultures live and will. Jimmy Butler, I love what Jimmy Butler did yesterday. It's funny. It was just funny. And he was even like going out to the podium saying, don't talk to me. Don't make me break character right now. So he had like, I wanna know what his character was that he built up.
Starting point is 00:55:09 He probably had a name for himself. I wanna know what the backstory was this character. I wanna know where this character came from. I wanna know their likes, their dislikes. A lot of people were saying he looked, it was like Garth Brooks when he switched over to being Chris Gaines for that one, I'll remember. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:21 Which Garth should bring that back by the way. Absolutely. What a weird, weird time and music that was. Yeah, he, uh, I also liked that he basically was like, yeah, I'm sad because we don't have Damian Lillard. Yeah, which sucks for Tyler Hero, but whatever. I've been looking so long at these pictures of you. That is so off of Tyler Hero that, like,
Starting point is 00:55:37 the whole heat organization was like, let's get him out, let's get Damian Lillard. And now he's still there. Yeah, but SpinZone, if your name's being floated as a straight up trade for Dame Lillard. That's pretty good. True. True. True. Yeah, he'd hit it on the hot seat Stuff tough scene for heat he culture heat nation to about there. What's your cool? Did you like the look Jake? He can do whatever he wants Anything he wants. Yeah look
Starting point is 00:56:01 Anything yeah, he can sit in Coco Gauves box. Sit in it. I need to see a bit of it. I need to see evidence of Jimmy Bucks. It sounds like you're wanting us to take a box before I believe it. Are you demanding a Jimmy Boll or sex tape? No. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:56:18 I want to see him disgusting. I want to see him in the box, Jay. You can sit in her US open personal sky box for the next. My wife. You're nice. Yeah, I like what you're saying, Jay. Every US open that she plays in.
Starting point is 00:56:34 Okay. Yeah. So you're not demanding a sex date. No, okay. Just so we're clear. All right. Would you watch one? No.
Starting point is 00:56:43 I want nothing to do with that headline. So you don't defend me? I defend you. Okay, all right. Yeah. Uh, thank you, cool throne. My cool throne is the sphere. Yeah. They had their first concert this weekend.
Starting point is 00:56:57 It looks like the coolest thing ever. Ever. I feel like someone's gonna like take, take mushrooms and die. That was when I was watching that, I was like, this would be overwhelming. It would be not so sick, but also someone's gonna die. It would be not honor. For taking hallucinogenics and like it being so sick.
Starting point is 00:57:16 I don't think you need to take hallucinogenics. That's whole point. That someone's going to. Yeah, and double it up. It's so sick. What if it cancels itself out? And you said like a rant, he's like sitting in like a random bar watching a concert. It would be an absolute honor to experience ego death
Starting point is 00:57:30 inside the sphere. Yeah. It looks fucking awesome. Yeah it does. It looks very cool. There gotta be some awesome concerts for Super Week there, right? Yeah, probably.
Starting point is 00:57:39 Wow, we gotta go to the sphere. I gotta get inside that sphere. We gotta get inside that sphere. It looks amazing. It looks amazing. We gotta insert ourselves in that sphere. Is it better from the outside or the inside. I gotta get inside that sphere. We gotta get inside that sphere. It looks amazing. It looks amazing. Is it better from the outside of the inside? I don't know. I think it's better from the outside.
Starting point is 00:57:50 I think internals. I'm not gonna make it. I'm not gonna make a judgment until I see it. Yeah. I'm a real facs based guy. I would. Listen, I feel like if it doesn't matter what concert they would put on there, it does suck that they got you two to do it first.
Starting point is 00:58:04 Yeah. Why does you two get to do anything? By the way, that's probably part of their Apple deal. Where was Bono during COVID? You literally had the opportunity to save the world, Bono. People don't even know how it started it. That's what you were built for. You've been talking a big game for the last like 20 years about saving the world. Where the fuck were you in the last three years? People don't even realize that you two, when we, was it the phone or was the iPad? The iPhone. The iPhone, they downloaded every iPhone came with a downloaded YouTube album.
Starting point is 00:58:31 Yeah, without our conveyance. Let's do it. Yeah. And now, what's the thing called that just played the music? iPod. iPod. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:39 It sucks about the YouTube phone. When you plug the YouTube, when you plug your phone into like a car when it connects to the car play, it automatically starts playing a U2 song. Yeah, that's bullshit. Yeah, that's fraud. iPod, the best part about the iPod was when you would break,
Starting point is 00:58:53 if you chucked it as hard as you could at the wall, it would fix itself. I don't know if that's just me. So I used it all the time. Yeah, if it like froze, you just whip it at the wall. And it would like, actually reset. Yeah, no it like froze, you just whip it at the wall. Oh, like, that's what you said. Yeah. No, I think that was actually a fact.
Starting point is 00:59:09 I think Steve Jobs actually showed that in one of his presentations. Like the best part is you don't need ever need to go to Geek Squad. You could just throw your iPod at the wall. It's like when Elon threw a brick through the Cybertruck, Steve Jobs took the phone through it against the wall. He's like, boom, fixed.
Starting point is 00:59:22 Yeah. So the iPhone, when it first came out, I was like, well, this is gonna be a flop. Yeah, what is this? It's an iPod, but you can make a call on it. I held strong on my blackberry for a while there. I love my iPod. I had the shuffle, the Nano.
Starting point is 00:59:38 I'm a Nano. I didn't like the Nano. I am a Nano. I think back on this being like, this is crazy, because today's day and age, everyone's gonna have an iPhone. I worked at Pursal for like a year with a flip phone in an iPod touch.
Starting point is 00:59:52 I love it. So like I would just have to get Wi-Fi and like use the apps and stuff, but I couldn't afford like an actual iPhone. I love it. That's grind set. Grind set. That's heat culture.
Starting point is 01:00:02 I do miss, I miss the sound of the click wheel though. Uh huh. It's so good. I do miss I miss the sound of the click wheel though. Uh-huh It's so good. Yeah, they definitely when they program that stuff They do studies to see like what sound is most suit most soothing to your ears to hear yeah, and that click wheel It it sets me off did you see the new iPhone? They're going back to Or they're the plug is different again USB-C. Yeah, it's gonna be crazy It's gonna be standardized at least this time. Yeah, but it's nuts. They keep flipping. But all of a sudden, it's better.
Starting point is 01:00:28 It is better, but it also is annoying because now I have a bunch of charges that I don't need. Yeah, I think what they do is they- No, mine already is USB-C. No, it's not. It's definitely not. The one that just came out last week. Let me show you your phone, like that.
Starting point is 01:00:40 Yeah, like Babcock. Let me see it. Let me see your phone. Let's see the phone. Yeah, no, you have the same iPhone as every time. Yeah, that's all about it. Let me see it. Let me see your phone. Let's see the phone. Yeah, no, you have the same iPhone as every one. Yeah, I just saw the little slot. What they do is Apple waits until every hotel in America upgrades their charging system to the current one and then Apple's like, psych, we're going to flip it again. And then every hotel has to throw out all their alarm clocks. Hank, why are you logged into a Twitter account saying, swifty forever, 420, and you're replying to me on Twitter.
Starting point is 01:01:05 How many? What the fuck is this? Hank, what is KYS mean? What do you keep saying it? Why do you keep tweeting that at me? Pity your hot seat cool throat. My hot seat is actually the Sixers organization. Oh, not the heat organization.
Starting point is 01:01:18 Because the Sixers, yeah, Hank, really, everything's coming up Celtics, huh? The Sixers are kind of- One and Rogue journalists. In in deep shit because they're now concerned that James Hardin is going to attend camp and is going to make things quote, as painful as possible for the Sixers. Now I started to think what would that look like? How could James Hardin?
Starting point is 01:01:37 He's already pulled that I'm going to get fat card, right? So I don't think he would go back to that well. I think I don't know what else he can do to make things as painful as possible, besides just showing up and giving very problematic press conferences, but Maxis doesn't look, it doesn't look good to start your season off like this.
Starting point is 01:01:54 Some of their fans want to trade Juel and bead, Hardin's gonna show up and make things as painful as possible. It seems to be trending in the wrong direction. I think that James Hardin will end up in jail by the end of this week. Okay. For what? For doing jail. This would be easier than your 30th or 28th prediction a few weeks ago. Do you think he like jail?
Starting point is 01:02:17 Do you think actual jail? Personally, he deserves to go to jail. Or do you think we'll actually do something? Like he's gonna do something. I think he's gonna do something. Did he choke him? Something's gonna happen. I don't know what that means.
Starting point is 01:02:29 This is not an prediction. If I was hard on, and I wanted to make things as painful, I said show up and just fart all the time. I think he's gonna do something so ridiculous that someone in the front office is gonna call the cops on them. I don't know what that thing is. I like this.
Starting point is 01:02:45 I like this. What more can he do? What more can he do than he hasn't already done in the past? And it looks like he has his biggest grudge ever. Oh, so you're kind of actually in a weird way calling out James Harden as a pussy. Like he hasn't done anything. Like you got to step it up, dude. Yeah, like I think he's going to do something so egregious.
Starting point is 01:03:02 You're pushing him to jail. That like I think he may just like something so egregious. You're pushing him to jail. That like, I think he may just like show up on the court naked. Like he may just go butt ass naked onto the court and then more of me like public, public indecency, bringing the cops arrest him. Maybe not jail, but like, No, you said jail.
Starting point is 01:03:17 Not a jail, jail. He didn't say prison, he said jail. It's jail, jail. He could, he could swap the Sixers Organization, like call the SWAT team on them. Yeah. He could get the Oxcord at practice in the locker room, just play cars for kids on repeat.
Starting point is 01:03:31 That would suck. I like that. That's what I would do. What if you just, I would just annoy everybody. Yeah. A positive strippers and then like, they're on the court with them. I'm pretty sure the Sixer would be like,
Starting point is 01:03:40 this is cool. Yeah. This rocks team building. I would love that. Yeah. If any of you guys want to do that, to try to, try to prove a cool. Yeah, this rocks team building. I would love that. Yeah. If any of you guys want to do that, to try to, try to prove a point. Yeah, this is how badly I want out.
Starting point is 01:03:50 Yeah. I'm going to make all my boys have a great time. All right, your cool throne. My cool throne is Darius Rucker. Yeah. So on the podcast last week, I talked about how I woke up in the morning, I had like a targeted ad that hit me for a Darius Rucker NFL collab merch. And I ended up buying 500 bucks worth of it for
Starting point is 01:04:10 the boys, doled them out on Sunday. And I came in the office, I'd been in touch with one of the people that works for Darius Rucker because they heard the segment last week. They're like, Hey, we want to send you some commanders stuff too. I came in the office on Sunday and I had 13 boxes with 20 pieces of merchandise. All Washington commanders, all size medium. So very specific pieces of merch. We did the math and it's like $20,000 worth of various rucker merch that they sent. I hit the guy up.
Starting point is 01:04:38 I was like, just so you know, like you sent me a lot, like 20 of every time. Shitloading. You're opening boxes for like 20 minutes. They sent an entire palette. It was 13 giant boxes. And so the guy was like, oh shit, yeah, we actually didn't mean to send you all those. We were trying to send you one of each.
Starting point is 01:04:53 So I'm gonna send most of them back, but spin zone in a lucky turn for the listeners apart my take. I am gonna be in Raujon, Maryland at FedEx Field on Thursday for Bears Commanders Thursday night. And I'm gonna bring, if you going to be in Raujon Maryland at FedEx Field on Thursday for Bears Commanders Thursday night. And I'm going to bring, if you happen to be a size medium commanders fan or notice someone who is, I'm going to bring a bunch of that with me.
Starting point is 01:05:12 We're doing a meet and greet at the part of my G stake in FedEx field. So we'll get the details of that later. But if you want any of this derriest rocker Washington commanders NFL merch, come meet me there. I'm going to give it a bunch of it. It's actually good merch too. Yeah, the designs are pretty such. Yeah. So I'm going to be passing some of that out. But yeah, now I also have to figure out a way to ship back 13 giant boxes of Darius Rucker Washington commanders merchandise. I love it. Yeah. I love it. Well, win for the AWS. Yep. All right. My hot seat is me. I'm getting, I'm under siege. For what?
Starting point is 01:05:46 The Swifties are at my door threatening my life, threatening my family's life for a clip on Monday that I said that I wanted to see until I saw actual PNV, the relationship was not real to me. Yeah, so I think you didn't want to see a Taylor Swift sex tape. You just as much wanted to see a trap without that proof of life. And you wanted to be ironclad that they're actually together and then it's not all for sure.
Starting point is 01:06:16 And let's just be clear, like it's similar to dinosaurs. Dinosaurs aren't real because I never saw them. Yeah, so if I don't see sex, I don't think anyone's relationship is real well the world We could spend zone this and say that we we will be just as happy if we had a constant video of Taylor Swift Not having sex with anybody else correct, but Travis Kells correct and just give us a live stream of that Correct determined that they're actually together. I also think that in a peace offering, I'm gonna tell all the Swifties, I will never
Starting point is 01:06:46 procreate again. Okay, very big. That's huge, right? Eliminating your genes further from the get of the sector. Maybe, what if I had to, I got a sector, maybe like, yeah. Look at, please Swifties, don't be mad at me. Yeah, it's, I've been trending for like 24 hours. I've just been kind of giggling to myself.
Starting point is 01:07:03 I didn't, we say some crazy shit on this podcast. Most people, all the A.W.A.Ls, know this podcast, but yeah, when we get outside of our walls, yeah, it's fun. Has anyone unusual hit you up or like someone that you didn't expect to like get involved in the situation? No, I saw Snow White, the Snow White woman, she's mad at me. Snow White is? Yes, Snow White.
Starting point is 01:07:24 The new Snow White? Yeah, the new Snow White is very mad at me, she's mad at me. Snow White is? Yes, Snow White. The new Snow White. The new Snow White is very mad at me. That's bad. Yeah. So, yeah, I mean, this, you know, this, the other day on the internet, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:32 And, and furthermore, let's just take sex out of it. I would also accept like videos of them doing things that only couples do together. Yeah, like going to a pottery barn together on a Saturday morning, calling each other little pet names. Yeah. Like, you know, like, who your boopy, that kind of thing?
Starting point is 01:07:48 Yeah, or maybe like them together on a couch during Monday Night Football, and he's watching football, and she's like on her iPad watching something else. Yeah, they're both. They're both watching. Let's, let's, let's be gender equal here. They're both watching a Netflix movie,
Starting point is 01:08:01 but they're also both scrolling Instagram reels. Yeah, like real couples. That's real couples. I want to know real couples. Right, right. Like maybe even just a picture of them in a car together, just like looking a little upset. Yeah, not talking.
Starting point is 01:08:13 Yeah, not talking on the way home from a dinner that didn't go as well. The more I see them, not talking, the more I know it's a real couple. Yeah, that's how I know it's good. Yeah, yeah. Okay, and then my cool throne is Paige Sparanic. Has Paige been on the show?
Starting point is 01:08:24 She has, yeah. So Paige Sparanic. Has Paige been on the show? She has, she has. So Paige Sparanic, this is the investigative work by Grant Bilsey, who hosts a Wisconsin radio show. He did a deep dive. So credit to him, very, very funny. The Paige Sparanic Bobblehead completely turned around the Bre brewers season. Okay. So on June 16th, the brewers hosted the pirates.
Starting point is 01:08:49 They were 34 and 34. They beat the pirates at night, five to four, and then they wound up winning the NL Central with a record of 92 and 70, and they were 58 and 36 after the page sporadicblehead night. Good for her. They're gonna get there in the stadium. Yeah, they do have to get her in the stadium. Yeah, so he hosts the Wisco Sports Show and he did an entire deep dive on his podcast
Starting point is 01:09:16 about how one Page Sporanic Bobblehead night changed the entire brewer season. That's the type of journalism I love. So shout out Grant, great work, and shout out Page. She turned the brewer season. That's the type of journalism I love. So shout out Grant, great work. And shout out, page. She turned the brewer season around. I don't think it was a strike. Numbers never lie. Numbers never lie. What do you say if she was a strike or a first pitch? It's a good bobble head. She's swinging a club and oh, yep. All right. Yes. See if she was a strike. Oh, she went from the big mound on us. She'd to step up. She stepped up.
Starting point is 01:09:49 I think you're not allowed to though. Yeah, they don't watch messing with the mound. That's not true. Oh Not a little curveball. You can't really see the catcher. That's not true. You can do the big mountain because I did it when When I raised a bunch of money for anti-Rizzo's charity and then they I came he was like the winner Who raised the most money got to throw out the first pitch. And I didn't realize that his charity is awesome. It's for kids battling cancer. And it was me and a bunch of kids. And they were all throwing from in front of the mountain. I was like, I want to throw from the mountains. It was kind of like Kramer doing karate with the kids. Yeah. So I threw for the mountain. I would throw some absolute junk. If I threw out first pitch, I would throw a nasty curve. Yeah. Philly's are hyping up their first pitch big time tonight. Oh, we got more water. You've taped it. Make a prediction, Max. No,
Starting point is 01:10:34 you aren't. You did the fucking Eagles biking score of score. Oh, I have an idea. Take a prediction. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, no. So I'm giving you the context. I'll give you the context. It should be. Oh, they said it sports related. Yeah let me give you the context. I'll give you the contact. It should be tail. They said it sports related. Yeah, the quote is the first pitch is going to be a spectacular one. You're going to be talking about it tomorrow. Okay. And then this is from the, uh, 90-fold KELSEY.
Starting point is 01:10:54 Donnell KELSEY? Uh, from the world of sports or outside and they say more, more of the world of sports. Okay. Okay. So does the number one sports story in the world? Yeah. Hank, what are you doing? I would say, I think, did you guys see
Starting point is 01:11:08 space off the replies? I think it's gonna be Charlie manual. Oh, that's how to help you. It's just how to help you, right? He was like, people thought he was gonna die and then he made a recovery. Did you guys see also Aaron Rogers called Travis Kelsey, Mr. Pfizer?
Starting point is 01:11:22 Pretty disgusting. Wait, I think we should all just focus our energy on him. Mr. Johnson and Johnson. Yeah, he called him Mr. Pfizer, pretty disgusting. Wait, I think we should all just focus our energy on him. Mr. Johnson and Johnson. Yeah, he called him Mr. Pfizer. He's literally, his entire salary is paid for by Johnson and Johnson. Kind of a best friend moved by Aaron Rodgers, take the heat off me by saying that.
Starting point is 01:11:35 Yeah, I should thank him. That is insane though, that like he does, he's the quarterback of the jets. Yes, that's facts. And Jack Wilson is their quarterback. It's true, moving forward he is. Jake finished saw Billy, Billy won up his take. His previous Patrick Mahomes.
Starting point is 01:11:53 Oh, no, tell me, tell me, tell me. He said that now Zach Wilson, because he played one good game, his ceiling is above Patrick Mahomes. Oh. So he will be better than Patrick Mahomes. He did output. Yeah, listen,
Starting point is 01:12:04 recently bias, but one game, if you were to power rank quarterbacks based on week four and week four only, Zach Wilson is above Patrick Mahomes factor. That's a fact. That's a fact. Jake. My hot seat is milking your nipples on the sidelines. Whoa. Okay. The head coach for Oregon State football. Jonathan Smith. I saw this. Yeah. He did the signal. They're trying to build the clock at the end of the game against Utah. Yeah. Yeah. You started milking his, he started squeezing his nipples. No, he squeezed his nipples.
Starting point is 01:12:34 He's going like this. Did they win? Yeah. One. Well, then that should be cool. Well, then he had to apologize because he apparently offended people. What? Yeah. What world am I living in? For anyone I offended, I apologize.
Starting point is 01:12:45 I won't be using that signal again. He went like this. I like that. That's funny. It was funny. Oh my God. To be a football coach, you have to do big, yeah. You have to have like over the top motions on the side.
Starting point is 01:12:59 You can't do it. It's not like baseball where you like tap your ear. These guys are far away. You gotta be able to do like grab the honkers. Let them know. Yeah. So yeah, do apologize and we won't be seeing that again. I hope he does it again. We'll see. Yeah, I think every coach in solidarity should start to do the milking nipples thing. Yeah. My cool throne is giving way cold tickets. Yes. That time a week again, they are home against the Titans. We had the baby Ursa for the first home game We had the tattoo for last week and let's talk about this week. Hopefully mr. Ursa will do the right thing and open the roof
Starting point is 01:13:34 Okay, why don't we do Anyone who's named Jim Any That wants to go to the game so many. Yes. Yeah, all right. So how do we pick a winner? Just give us why you're the best out Jim that wants to go to the game so many. Yeah, yeah, all right. So how do we pick a winner? Just give us why you're the best. I mean, if anyone could prove their name is Jim Ursa, then we should definitely give it to them.
Starting point is 01:13:51 Anyone named Ursa, we think we, there's, I don't know if there's any other, I would imagine that if you're an Ursa and you live in Indianapolis, you probably already have tickets. Yeah. How about somebody that, somebody that attended Jim Ursa's season kickoff concert that they had at
Starting point is 01:14:08 Coltsfield? I like that. That's a proof. Yeah, proof that you were in attendance watching Jim Ursa sing lawyers, guns, and money. I will give you those tickets. We have four of them, right? Yeah, two sets of two. And set my glasses, too.
Starting point is 01:14:20 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. PMC intern at barstool sports.com. Okay great with proof.

Available in stores nationwide, head on over to the body armor store on Amazon and get yours today. And now here is D'Amico Ryan's. Okay, we now welcome on a very, very special guest.
Starting point is 01:15:22 He is head coach of the Houston Texans. It is Dmitrikel Ryan's coach. We're excited to have you on. Not to to our own horn, but we were big Dmitrikel Ryan's fans before he became a head coach and were like, he's going to be a great head coach. So let's start with this season two and two off a big win against the Steelers looking good. What was the big thing? Either culture or what you implemented when you showed up to Houston, knowing that you were inheriting a not great team and trying to change the direction of the franchise.
Starting point is 01:15:58 And the biggest thing I wanted to steal in our guys is just the mindset of you have to grind, you have to work like it's hard to win in this league and it takes a tough work ethic, it takes tough people, right? It takes people who are not worried about the end result. It takes people who are truly dedicated to improving themselves each and every day, focus on the day, getting better one day at a time
Starting point is 01:16:24 and it got them for me and still in that, right? And everything goes, I talk on the day, getting better one day at a time. And if God for me instilled in that, right? And everything else I talk about about the process, the wins and all that, those things, they take care of themselves. So that was the biggest thing, establishing just a get better mindset each and every day. Yeah. And you guys have been playing really well recently. I'm curious snow from your perspective because a lot of a lot of times great players don't make for great coaches. I'm sure you've seen it a few times in football. It happens and it seems
Starting point is 01:16:49 like every league. You were a great player in your own right. You were you were awesome. You were joy to watch. What do you think is different about about you than other great players that have tried to transition to being coaches and might not have been able to instill like all the details in a guy that they had themselves ingrained. I think the first thing for me is when I got into coach and I went into, I didn't go just straight into coaching a position, right? I went into a quality control role and truly learned,
Starting point is 01:17:18 all right, what it takes to coach is any player, right? You have this pride about yourself. Like I thought, hey, man, I'm gonna go in. I can coach the linebackers right right off the jump right after playing and I truly I understood like man coaching this way more involved there's way more to it than I thought it was right and so for me I think that really humble me and really helped me learn right what coaches go through on a day-to-day basis and all of the things, the work that it goes in to just teach guys, how do you teach guys
Starting point is 01:17:50 who learn different, guys come from different backgrounds? There's a science to that and I had to learn that. And that's the biggest thing I think for me is, and in any form of play, you wanna come back and coach, you have to humble yourself and you also have to understand, like I'm not in the meetings, or I ain't talking about how I used to do it, or what I did.
Starting point is 01:18:10 Like it's truly about me helping these guys be successful in whatever they're doing, whatever position they're in, just instilling those, the traits that it takes to be great. I just wanna instil that mindset in the guys, and I just truly wanna help these guys miss, I can. What does a quality control coach do?
Starting point is 01:18:32 I always see that title, and I feel like if you're inside play, it might vary from team to team. Like, is this like real menial stuff? Like, were you getting coffee for people? No, not getting coffee. But what it entails is truly like breaking down film. So when you go through and God study film throughout the week,
Starting point is 01:18:49 well, someone has to input all the data from the previous team. So what were the runs? What do you call in those runs? Passes like truly breaking down all of those concepts. Actually, you know, myself and Bobby Slowick, we were both QC's at the same time. So you were working like at a computer? Yeah, working at a computer in a tight little office space.
Starting point is 01:19:12 I actually shared a office with another QC. It was a tight space. I wasn't making much money at all. I mean, I was actually paying the coach, especially living in California. It's messing to live out there. Yeah. Yeah, all right. So I don't want to be a quality control coach. It's messing to live out there. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:25 All right. So I don't want to be a quality control coach. So I always thought it would be a cool job. Because I was like, oh, yeah, you just hang out. And you don't make sure that like the head coach doesn't trip over their headset wire and stuff like that. Sounds a lot more tedious than that. Yeah, it is, man.
Starting point is 01:19:38 And it's really the quality control guy. These guy, you really love football. Yeah. If you're doing quality control work, man You're in a dark office is grinding away and I see your family much a lot of long hours Those are the guys that truly love football, but those are the guys who also you understand the full process Right, I'm being a coach So you see a lot of guys grow from that role and become right head coaches because they truly have hit every Step of the coaching ladder. So you would say that you're proficient in Microsoft Excel
Starting point is 01:20:13 I'm doing better. Okay, that's good answer because no one is I convinced no one is except very few Put everyone puts it on their resume. They're like yeah, don't worry. I can do this. I had it on my computer I put it on my resume. They're like, yeah, don't worry, I can do this. I had it on my computer. I put it on my resume. Yeah, right. Exactly. So CJ Stroud has been fantastic through four games. Obviously, it's his rookie year. Explain to me what the process is, because he hasn't thrown an interception yet.
Starting point is 01:20:38 Like, he's been phenomenal. What did you guys put in place to make it so that like, a lot of times you see in the NFL, rookie comes out, has a little bit of a bumpy road their first year. He hit the ground running. Was there anything specific like simplifying the game or making him feel comfortable that you guys were able to do because you deserve a lot of credit to coaching staff? Well, I think man, when you work with any player C.J., the cool part about C.J., that nobody really knows or sees is how much he studies. All right, he is truly a football,
Starting point is 01:21:09 John, he could probably be a QC. He's always walked in. He's always studying in film. He wants coaches to send as much film as possible in his way because he truly loves football. So when you have a guy who has that mindset and he loves it, like it's easy to coach guys like that. Like they see things before the coaches see it. And when you have a guy who has that mindset and he loves it, like it's easy to coach guys like that, like they see things before the coaches see it.
Starting point is 01:21:28 And when you have a guy like that, you truly listen to his input and you want to, you want him, you want to do, right? You want to run the things that he feels most comfortable with things he feels good about. Those are the things you're going to go out and excel. And I think Bobby and the offensive staff have done a good job of listening to CJ and Mesh and the things that Bobby wants to do and CJ wants to do right, Mesh and those things together and work truly working together, right? That's how I think you see the success from CJ, right? There is not a play call that
Starting point is 01:21:59 he does, he has a rep. There's not a play call that he doesn't like. So you truly, you like to play, you know the answers, right? To whatever pressure comes or whatever may happen. Like, that's how you go out and perform the way CJ performs, but it's all about his preparation, man. It's second and none. It's a great answer because a lot of times I feel like a quarterback gets drafted and whoever's the head coach or the organization says, all right, well, now we're just going to, we're going to do what we do.
Starting point is 01:22:28 You got to find a way to fit in, but figuring out a way to make the quarterback, like, let's mold the offense for his strengths is such an underrated thing that a lot of teams somehow miss. Yeah, and that's one thing, man. I truly learned as coach as a coach. Like, when I became a defense coordinator, I always had this idea like, yeah, I'm gonna be running all these crazy blitzes and I'm gonna do all these, you know,
Starting point is 01:22:49 this crazy scheme stuff. And then I truly got it too. So like wait a minute. It doesn't matter like what I wanna do. Like who are the players I'm working with? What do they do well? And how can I allow doing a play as fast as possible? And that's what Colton is.
Starting point is 01:23:05 Is putting players in position to accentuate their talents and Colton, you get out of the way and let the players play fast. Yeah. We are Stroud boys on this podcast. We've always said CJ is going to be a great player in this league. I'm curious to know going into Draft Knight though. I think I might have tweeted this out at the time after you took stride. I said that the Texans should take another quarterback right afterwards. Was there any discussion at all about taking the top two remaining quarterbacks because you are like the NFL is a league where they look they you need to show improvement pretty quickly. And the best way to do that usually I mean, there's other things certainly, but usually is by getting a great quarterback. Was there ever a conversation about taking two quarterbacks in the first
Starting point is 01:23:48 round? Not two quarterbacks in the first round. We feel good about Davis, right? And his development having him as a as a guy who started games and we saw that he can still improve and get better, which he had he did throughout our all season program. So having Davis and then adding in case kingdom as well, we felt really good about those two guys who had experience, right? But then you add another rookie, add a rookie quarterback and CJ and let's see, you know, how, how soon can he develop, right? How much can he grow also being in a room with experienced guys expected to that grow process to happen sooner.
Starting point is 01:24:25 And that's what is done. In case and Davis have been excellent in working with CJ and we really love our quarterback room having all three of those guys. Yeah, can I tell you that's that right there. It tells me why you're gonna be a great coach in this league is because that was such a polite way of being like, no, you're dumb ass.
Starting point is 01:24:42 Why did you ask me that question? Yeah, that was great. Because like from a fan perspective, you're like, take two quarterbacks. Why not? And then in reality, no, you're dumb ass. Why did you ask me that question? Yeah, that was great. Because like, from a fan perspective, you're like, take two quarterbacks, why not? And then in reality, yeah, take three. Use all your draft picks on quarterbacks. But yeah, you obviously know the situation better than I do. Yeah, yeah, no, you're smart, you're good, you're a head coach.
Starting point is 01:24:58 All right, this is gonna be a tough question. I don't wanna bring up any bad memories. You did have an incredible college and pro career, but is there a part of you that's like, man, if I was just a couple of years older, I would have been with Sabin, winning national titles, and do fans ever confuse it being like, oh yeah, Domingo's got a couple of rings,
Starting point is 01:25:17 like confuse the years over time. Like, does that ever cross your mind? You're like, I was, what Alabama's been the last 15 years has been insane and you were there right before that. Yeah, and it crossed my mind a lot. All right, that's human. Yeah, that's human. I mean, I end up saying that a lot, right?
Starting point is 01:25:36 Oh, no, I was before saving. I was before saving. I kind of, I helped them get on track, right? And then, then saving came and took off, right? For all the foundation that I laid in. That's right. No. But, but no, it's not man.
Starting point is 01:25:51 I, yeah, I do miss though. I, I wish I was there with those guys for sure, but I had a couple, a couple teammates, right, who were freshmen my last year, who ended up actually being on a team with Coach Sabin. And those guys raved about Coach Sabin and those guys rave the bow coach Sabin and Coach Sabin has done an outstanding job of course and he's been very gracious to me anytime I go back to the universe of Alabama. Right, I'm always watching those guys always rooting them on. Right, been an
Starting point is 01:26:17 Alabama fan since I was a young kid so that never changes. I'm all in on Alabama football and really proud of the success that they've had. Yeah. So we have a, we have a coworker who's a big Mississippi state fan, fanatical, crazy. Was there, I know you were deciding between Mississippi state and Alabama. Was there ever a shot that you were going to go to Mississippi state? I want to really kind of dig it into them. Not really. I will edit that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was like, that was that's a no brainer. Oh, that's actually a good answer. Cause yeah, it's like you would never go to Mississippi State over Alabama. Yeah. If you have the option. Yeah. But before
Starting point is 01:26:57 Alabama came, yeah, I would entertain it. Yeah. Did you ever go to a Mississippi State game? Did you take an official visit there? No, I messed up, man. I went to, I took the Alabama official visit. That was my second visit, actually. And once I went to Alabama, the defense coordinated air car tour bus, he was like, Hey, you know, these, these schools that pay a lot of money for these official visits. And so, hey, you're going to be all in Alabama. You need to go ahead and cancel those official visits. And so, hey, you're gonna be all in Alabama. You need to go ahead and cancel those other visits. So, I ended up canceling the visits.
Starting point is 01:27:30 Now I look back, I was like, man, I should have took all five of my visits cause Torbos, she kinda sent me up there. Yeah, get a lot of free dinners that way. I would so imagine if you took an official visit to Mississippi State, you'd probably be like, this is really annoying with the cowbells, like this kinda sucks.
Starting point is 01:27:44 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, no, I absolutely, I mean, Mississippi State, man, they have their unique way of, you know, creating crowd noise there. And really, it was always a tough place to play with the cowbells. I mean, it was always a tough opponent. So, I mean, it was fun for the Mississippi State.
Starting point is 01:28:04 Yeah, we don't have to be too nice to him. Part of my take is sponsored by BetterHelp. Do you ever feel like your brain is getting in its own way?

Uh, I, so you, you're kind of a rare case where you had a chance to potentially be a head coach before you became a head coach where teams were interested in interviewing you. You did a couple interviews, but you turned some of them down. Was that like, that's very rare
Starting point is 01:29:24 because you see a lot of times there's only 32 jobs. Guys, whether they're ready or not will be like, I have to take my shot here. Were you saying to yourself, like I can be patient? I know that I can be patient. I'll eventually get my job. Yeah, of course, man. I was, when I had the opportunity right after my,
Starting point is 01:29:39 I had one year as a deep as a coordinator. And so, and I'm going through that process. I'm just figuring out how to call games, how to make those adjustments. And I was just getting into the groove of being a deep as a coordinator and we're deep into the playoffs, get the opportunity to interview with another team.
Starting point is 01:29:58 When it counts, it's like, man, this is just not the time. Like, I don't wanna just jump at the first thing, right? Grateful for the opportunity. But I was always sad like, man, if I become a head coach, I want to, I, I want to be a successful head coach. I just don't want to, I mean, I was a head coach and NFL and, no, I want to do it the right way with the right people. And it couldn't have worked out better for me, right?
Starting point is 01:30:22 Coming here to an organization with the Texans that I played for, because now it just means more. And it's going to do another team. Like, no, I've played here. I played on this field, right? I've been in this building, know a lot of people around here. So this felt, this is home, right? And this was made this more special
Starting point is 01:30:42 than just taking any other job. That's really smart. Makes sense. I would not have that intelligence. I'd be like, oh, they're going to pay me how much? I'm not ready, but I don't care. I would have jumped at the first job. You just say yes.
Starting point is 01:30:53 Yes, before they change their mind. I don't think I know how to do this, but I don't care. Yeah, if you offered me to be a head coach right now, I would immediately say yes. I would have fans calling for my head after one quarter of football. Yeah, I'd be like, I don't want to do this somewhere. I want to go home. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 01:31:10 I'm curious when you when you get a head coach and get you probably experienced this as a defense coordinator too, are the coach Salah and San Francisco. He had an all time get back guy on the sideline, a guy whose job it was just hold him, hold him back from the field. Do you have a get back guy? No, I just I tried to stay back. I had a, when we were here, saying for any of the strength coaches, most, most that as the strength coaches are to get back guys and, you know, they're the,
Starting point is 01:31:35 they're the strong guys who are lifting all the weight. So they do their best to keep guys back. But I, I try to stay out of the way as much as possible. So nobody, nobody's yanked me back. Yes. So I think I'm doing a pretty good job, staying out of the way as much as possible. So nobody's yinke me back. Yes. So I think I'm doing a pretty good job. I'm standing out of the way. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:48 Solla would just go out to midfield sometimes. He just looked like he's going to make a tackler out there. Yeah. Yeah. Solla, Solid Nees. He has a guy, Nick Alene, he holding him back. So Nick Alene gives a lot of FaceTime on TV. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:59 He brought him with him, right? Yeah. His personal get back guy. Yeah. Got to bring him everywhere you go. When you were coaching in San Francisco, what were the chess matches like in practice between you and Mike McDaniel?
Starting point is 01:32:10 Oh, that was, that was always fun. Right. I love going against, you know, McDaniels and Kyle because you're going to get some crazy motions, some crazy formations and as a defense, like when we finish training, like every day of training camp, there's like something new. So when we go into the season,
Starting point is 01:32:29 we're like, oh, wow, this is cool, they're not emotionally. Like this is easy. Like it made our job tougher right throughout training camp, but getting into the season, there was not emotion or formation that we hadn't seen or hadn't practiced before.
Starting point is 01:32:43 So it allowed our guys to be even more confident and just fly around. So I mean, really love what those guys do. And McDaniel, you see it, right? With the dolphins and what he's doing there, right? A lot of different formations, a lot of motion causes a lot of confusion to defense that he's doing the outstanding job. Yeah. Would Kyle ever just like try to flex on you and just like fuck you up with the crazy play and practice?
Starting point is 01:33:06 And like, you know who this, who's team this is. Yeah, he could try it, but he knows defense. Defense first, man. We stuff all those plays. Yeah. I mean, that's actually a great skill set to have and great experience to have because as more coaches that coach offense like that are going around the league,
Starting point is 01:33:24 like you know you're prepared for it Because you saw it in practice every single day Yeah, and if man that's the credit to those guys in the mind their mind they're always Think in next level with the game They're not just cookie cutter just gonna run the same place rinse and repeat hey How can we do this a different way? How can we stress? is rinse and repeat, hey, how can we do this a different way? How can we stress defenses in a different way? Hey, what would you do?
Starting point is 01:33:47 Right, and we're all, we're in communication. Like it's Kyle's talking, hey, what would you do if you got this formation or this motion? So for me, I'm already thinking about those things and our guys are just confident because we know how to handle them and they are, all the game is always evolving. So I always say as a coach,
Starting point is 01:34:07 man, you have to be able to evolve with the game or the game of pass you by who? And we'll do both. So we'll start with the Niners, then the Texans, but when you were at the Niners, who was the biggest freak offense or defense where you're just like, when you watch them up close, because the diners have a bunch of dudes and you're like, how is he doing this? Trent Williams. Okay.
Starting point is 01:34:29 Good answer. Correct answer. Yeah. Yeah. Unfortunately, I had, I went against Trent a couple times. I was playing with the Eagles. He was in Washington and I was the, he threw me out the club with a lot of ties. It's right.
Starting point is 01:34:44 It's, I don't know if there's another offense in line, who is fastest trend, who gets on a second level, and who was stronger than him. Like he's one of the strongest guys in the league. Yeah. And then what about the Texans? Who's your freak right now? The freak right now for the Texas.
Starting point is 01:34:58 Who would that be? Could be Will Anderson. He said, will, will is a beast for a show. Yeah. Man, he wrecks, yeah, the slow him down. He wrecks yeah, will will is a beast for a school. Yeah. Man, he wrecks. Yeah, the slow down. He wrecks practice all the time. I'm always the slow down. Yeah, I'm always interested because obviously, you know, you got a pro team. It's all like insane athletes, but there's always a couple guys who just pop off and you're like, that's just different
Starting point is 01:35:19 than everyone else. Yeah. And that's, yeah, will is definitely that guy. Last, like even last week, we're trying to get these looks to get the linebackers to safe these the proper fits on some run plays and he just goes and destroys The place a lot. Hey man. Take him out. So we can actually get get's work in Will is done will is done a great job Yeah, one thing we've learned from talking to enough people around the league is that actually Trent Williams should be spoken about the way we talk about like Aaron Donald on the defensive side of the ball. Like he's that much of a game changer. No doubt about it. I mean, the plays that the plays that they can run with with Trent the outside perimeter plays and his ability to get to the second level. Like it's Trent Williams. He's a cheat code for the Niners. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:05 And he should be spoken of in the same and as Aaron Donnell. And he gets mean too. He gets mean out there. And that's not a man that you want to make angry. Yeah. At all. Who is, who's the best teammate?
Starting point is 01:36:16 Let's maybe say teammate in terms of friend, but also then you can pick a teammate like best player you played with, with the Texans or Eagles. Best teammate for me, say Brian cushion. Okay. Also freak. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:33 Yeah. Definitely a freak with the Eagles. Best teammate there. Sadie McCoy. Oh, I liked that. He's funny. He's very funny. He was on the show.
Starting point is 01:36:43 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He talked about a guy who he kept it light. Man, kept everyone been gazing the locker room. Like fun guy to be around and me outstanding player. So it said he was definitely the life of that locker room. Yeah. Yeah. And who's the, who's the most talented player that you played with? Oh, most talented player I played with was, uh, JJ what? Oh, yeah. Yeah. He was pretty good. So
Starting point is 01:37:05 he's up to game last week. Took it up. He paid Chad. Did you read the full pay a jab that he took out? No, I didn't. Not what I did. Having come and talked to the team. So which was awesome. He did an awesome job of coming and speaking to the guys and just letting them know like how you become a success in the NFL, right? And it's about that daily work that grind. So JJ was awesome man. Great friend, great teammate, love having him around. Another great player I play with, I can't, cannot not mention was Mike Vic, the other great,
Starting point is 01:37:35 great play. Freak also a freak. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. All right, so we got some coaching tips for you real quick. We've been talking about the push. If you want some ideas on how to stop it, we have some ideas.
Starting point is 01:37:48 Bring them all. Okay. Have you thought about potentially getting your lightest guy, maybe a safety or a cornerback, and throwing him over the line of scrimmage when they snap the ball at a Jalen Hertz or whoever's doing it? Have you thought about that?
Starting point is 01:38:03 Have not thought about that one. Okay. Put that one on the list. Have you thought about giving one guy on defense a knife? But then nobody knows who has the knife. It's like a secret knife. It could be anybody. That may work. Okay. All right. What about stacking your biggest defensive lineman on top of each other and then just pushing that mound back against the offense. That's the winner. Okay. All right. Yeah. I think that would work. You just got to get everyone to buy into lying on top of each. Yeah. Man, they they're doing a great job that play, but I think that man that played all stars are Kelsey. Yes. Yes. And when he's able to do, he's another guy playing with his freak as well. But that's, that's the key to that play, right? That's what work.
Starting point is 01:38:47 I think other teams have tried it. It hasn't worked as well because you don't get that. Don't have guys who are explosive and get that push as Kelsey does. So and of course, Jayla hers. He's beast. He is beast. I think it actually technically by if we're talking about the clock, it starts with their left guard who jumps ahead of
Starting point is 01:39:05 the snap and he moves first. So it starts with him and then actually it's an Eagles offense align. I mean, obviously, Jalen hurts his a piece and he can squat six hundred pounds, but the way their offensive line runs that play, it's so much different from when any other team tries to copy it and emulate it. They don't get that same push up there. So yeah, I would agree with you on that. When you were on the Eagles, you played for Chip Kelly.
Starting point is 01:39:28 I think you're last year, right? Coach Chip. Did you incorporate any of his urine test and strategy into your position right now as I had coach? Yeah. No, none of the host strategies. Definitely, you definitely have to be hydrated and he's sitting if you're not hydrated out here, man. You'll,
Starting point is 01:39:46 you won't make it through practice. But chip was, man, I would say this, I was very, you know, man, I was very happy to be a part of the chips. First college coach, not man, the college ways to come into the NFL and all of the sports science things that he brought, right? I was on the ladder into my career, but to be a part of that, I think helped me a lot in understanding, right, where the league is now, the things that chip implemented when you come to a sports performance staff and all those things, right, nutrition stations, I mean, just getting shakes
