Welcome to the Reality Playbook where

we chat about sports and reality TV

2

shows and the dramatic storylines

that tend to mirror one another.

3

I am your host, a born and raised

sports and reality TV fans as the Real

4

World Derek Jeter's, rookie season.

5

So let's get into it.

6

Go Birds, and welcome

to the Reality Playbook.

7

Thank you so much, Adriana,

for joining us today.

8

Good morning.

9

I am sending my condolences.

10

Um, much appreciated to the Eagles fans.

11

Much appreciated.

12

I sound somber because I am.

13

All the Eagles fans tried to warn me, but

for some reason I was a delusional cousin.

14

I'm sorry, I thought y'all was

gonna go to Super Bowl again.

15

I thought somehow somewhere, but,

and I think I, I think we got teams.

16

I got an answer, I got an answer

to what the whole reason of Nick

17

Ciani not getting, you know,

coach of the year and all that.

18

I got an answer.

19

And we can talk about

that in a little bit.

20

I think we all got an answer,

but anyway, but yeah, so it was

21

condolences last week for you.

22

Condolences this week for me.

23

But it, you, it really, they really put

me out my own, uh, out of our own misery.

24

'cause no one wants to see a, a

talented offense look like that anyway.

25

Anyway.

26

But, but to the point.

27

Wild car weekend was truly wild, right?

28

Like, it was insane.

29

I loved it.

30

I like, I like stuff that's not very

predictable, and it was definitely not.

31

Um, all right, so let's,

let's get into it.

32

Let's, let's talk, let's, let's talk

about this Rams and Carolina game,

33

because Carolina almost pulled it out.

34

They had the Rams on the ropes.

35

Ropes, okay.

36

They had the Rams on the ropes.

37

They looked incredible.

38

And then somehow, some way in the last

two minutes, coach Canales and the North

39

Carolina, the, uh, the Carolina Panthers

defense, I think they looked at each other

40

and they went over to the sidelines and

were like, wait, who do we have to play if

41

we, oh yeah, hell no, we not doing that.

42

We.

43

They said, we'll just bow out.

44

Let's go hit and lose.

45

They were like, let,

let's just bow out now.

46

We don't wanna look like

Alabama versus the video.

47

I think they were like, I think

they got really excited and then

48

they realized like, who they had to.

49

I swear, I swear, I swear.

50

Somebody said, you know, if

we winning this game, we gotta

51

play in the divisional round.

52

They was like, oh hell.

53

Are we gonna do this again?

54

No, I, I think, uh, actually

they played such a good game.

55

Like it was such a good game until

it wasn't, I was so freaking mad.

56

Like, I don't hate the Rams, I just wanted

it for the Carolina Panthers, you know?

57

Yeah.

58

Yeah.

59

Very happy for them.

60

I'm happy that they were a, that

the Panthers did put up a fight, um,

61

especially with the way that they got in.

62

It was a little, uh, so, uh, was so weird.

63

But shout out to the Panthers

for giving, a good fight.

64

And, um, and to the Rams are moving

on and they will go and visit the

65

Bears who also played Saturday night.

66

The Bears actually came up, uh, and won.

67

Man, they came back in the second half.

68

They were trailing the entire game.

69

Um, and came back on the Packers.

70

31 to 27 Oscar, he winning in performance.

71

Yes.

72

I, I, you know, where, you know,

what's, what's this whole Ben

73

versus Matt thing, you know, head

coaches, you know, getting pissy.

74

Do you think it's real or do you think

it's like just for the, for the fans?

75

I think it's real.

76

Okay.

77

Because it was for the fans.

78

They would have, he would've

gave him a real handshake.

79

But I think that Ben Johnson disrespected

him when he was like, oh yeah, I like to

80

beat the, I like to beat him twice a year.

81

So I'm, look, I'm looking

forward to beating him again.

82

And I felt like Matt Leor took

that personal, and I would've too.

83

But, but the thing, the difference between

Ben Johnson and Matt Lepore is that.

84

And this is just my, from my observation,

Matt la before is more professional

85

and more used to being in this seat.

86

Yeah.

87

So he was okay with like, giving

him a handshake and Ben was

88

like, personally like f you.

89

And I don't know if something

happened that transpired, you

90

know, within the, their division.

91

Um, that I'm not aware of.

92

Yeah.

93

You know, I know like NFC North

is really tough, but even like.

94

Tomlin and, and Haws never not.

95

Right, right.

96

I'm lying.

97

It was, it was one time they

didn't shake hands that it was a

98

couple, it was years ago though.

99

Yeah.

100

Um, I do think that, that the,

that Ben Johnson is trying to take

101

on an identity in a certain way.

102

He is.

103

He was trying to show, and the

thing is, what's gonna happen is

104

it's gonna come back to bite him.

105

Because Matt, when Matt

LaFleur was on block, it was,

106

was the new kid on the block.

107

He was also doing things too, you know.

108

Mm.

109

Uh, and it doesn't make us, I don't

know, it just doesn't make me, it

110

don't make me like you more, it might

make Chicago like you, but as far as

111

getting like other people in, on the,

on this, it doesn't make me like,

112

it doesn't make me like Ben Johnson.

113

Yeah.

114

Especially because they, they

could have lost their game.

115

They really could have in, in Chicago.

116

It wasn't like they were, the

pack were up in Green Bay.

117

And the fan base was, that game was

silent to until the fourth quarter.

118

Right.

119

So it was crazy.

120

They are the comeback kids.

121

And so we've got match, they match,

they really ought the comeback that has

122

been their story their entire season.

123

And at this point I want

them to go to the Super Bowl.

124

Yeah.

125

So, so you're gonna

pick them over the Rams?

126

Um, no.

127

What I, what I'm sorry.

128

Want, I'm sorry.

129

They play the Yeah, they play the Rams.

130

Yeah.

131

What I want and what's going to

happen is two different things.

132

Two different things.

133

Okay.

134

We'll get to that.

135

Yeah, we'll, we'll definitely get to that.

136

Um, all right, so the bills, they

pulled it out with Josh Allen, man,

137

they, bills almost was sent packing.

138

They got a very, very, very gracious

spot, um, on, on one of the downs

139

that led to, you know, a scoring jive.

140

I, I just kind of, I hate to say this and

I don't wanna be a conspiracy theorist,

141

but I don't know if the Jags is gonna

be able to win that game, um, just in

142

general, unless they, it just didn't seem

like it was set up for, for them to win.

143

That were kind of being ridiculous.

144

And I say this, I said, I said this,

um, Saturday night, we on Threads,

145

um, in reference to the Bears, and

it wasn't enough at the Bears, it

146

was just saying it's just the truth.

147

When you are not used to being

in this position, experience

148

can make a big difference.

149

Right.

150

So it, for the Bears, it

worked out that they were able

151

to, you know, be successful.

152

But the Jaguars, it didn't

work out, unfortunately.

153

Yeah.

154

And Lee and Liam Cohen has been with the

Buccaneers who keep going one and out one

155

and out two and out, um, in the playoffs.

156

And so, um, when you have such a fire

retain, uh, fresh, you know, babies really

157

like at this point, um, even though like,

you know, uh, Trevor Lawrence right.

158

Had some, had some playoff lines already.

159

Um, one, like iconic one that

is Yeah, I remember that one.

160

Because they had to play the,

they had to beat the chiefs.

161

I'm telling you, I literally wa

was watching, sorry to cut you off.

162

I was watching that weekend, the

Wild Card, and I was like, oh man.

163

Because Dougie P was there.

164

Doug, Doug Peterson was, yeah, of course.

165

Yeah.

166

And I was like, you know, I was

cheering for him and I was like,

167

and then I, I mean, I literally

was like, okay, this game is over.

168

Jacks are like, I think, what was

it, like 31 0 or something crazy.

169

And then when they came back I was

like, dang, this is, you're iconic.

170

Trevor Lawrence and Doug EP.

171

So, mm-hmm.

172

Um, I, I, my team going out makes

me feel much more comfortable about

173

being fine with, uh, if the bills were

the ones to, to win it this season.

174

Feeling me too about that.

175

Do you think that the bills

would have a asterisk next to it?

176

Or that people need to stop

saying stupid stuff like that?

177

Because of, uh, the Kansas City Chiefs not

being in, or the Ravens and the, and the

178

Ravens, because I don't believe in that.

179

I believe, here's what I believe.

180

I believe, and I used to love Josh

Allen until last year when it was,

181

and it's not Josh Allen's fault that

he keeps getting pit against Lamar.

182

I don't know him personally.

183

I've never heard of, you

know, I've never met him.

184

But I, I am assuming from the brand and

that the person that he, uh, appears

185

to be, uh, on television and, you know,

he seemed like a great kid and a, a

186

great person, a, a great personality.

187

Right.

188

And he doesn't seem like he is

in the background talking about

189

or thinking about Lamar, but on

in the media, they're constantly

190

being like, put against each other.

191

Mm-hmm.

192

Right.

193

To make me start to like,

not root for him, right?

194

Like, 'cause I used to always say,

for the past few years, I've always

195

say, well, Lamar's not gonna go,

I'm gonna root for Josh Allen.

196

Like, it's, it's all of

my personal social media.

197

Like that, that was the

truth until last year.

198

And so this year I'm back in the same

boat and people in Baltimore and that

199

bad admit like, how, how dare you

root for, uh, you know, Josh Allen.

200

I'm like, look, this

guy has been through it.

201

Mm-hmm.

202

His team has let him

down over and over again.

203

Last year, Lamar should got MVP.

204

This year was the year that Josh

Allen should have gotten MVP.

205

It was obvious and it was clear and

obvious that he carried this team.

206

That defense was horrible.

207

The play call horrible.

208

Josh Allen had to do everything in

his power to make it to the playoff.

209

So if he gets, this is the year

that he gets his ring, so be it.

210

I'm, I am excited for him.

211

It makes me feel better about it not

being, of course, my team that's,

212

that's gonna have to end that.

213

And so I kind of look, I feel doing it

so that when the Eagles come back next

214

season with a, a amazing, you know,

offense that we don't have to feel bad.

215

Um, and we can get out bird bull.

216

We can get our bird.

217

It would be nice.

218

It would be nice to see a bird bowl.

219

Um, and I hope it's not on the West coast.

220

I digress.

221

Um, but let's talk a bit.

222

Let's talk.

223

Supposed be, it's supposed

to be in LA Oh God.

224

Why?

225

It's in LA and then, then

it's in, um, Atlanta.

226

Atlanta, yeah.

227

Um, let's, yeah.

228

San Fran la Atlanta.

229

Let's talk about this,

um, this Jags issue.

230

Do you wanna talk, do you wanna

give a, a rundown of what happened?

231

Um, so we had.

232

A woman, a queen, queen by the

name of Lynn Jones Turpen, who

233

works for the black free press.

234

Mm-hmm.

235

In Jacksonville.

236

Yeah.

237

Jacksonville.

238

Jacksonville.

239

Free press.

240

Do do ball.

241

No do ball.

242

But, uh, anyway, that, so, yes.

243

Um, Ms.

244

Mrs.

245

Jones, tur friend gave flowers to Liam

Cohen, the head coach of the Jacksonville

246

Jaguars, um, towards the end of his,

uh, press conference, following the

247

loss to the Bills in the wild card game.

248

And she spoke to him

for all the 28 seconds.

249

Mm-hmm.

250

And instead of asking him a question

about something that really he

251

couldn't answer after he just had

a heartbreaking loss, he decided to

252

take that moment, 28 seconds and pour

into him and let him know how grateful

253

herself and the entire city was for.

254

What the Jacksonville Jaguars have done,

255

unfortunately, unfortunately, mediocre

people, mediocre, mediocre, mediocre,

256

uh, people who, some people who are

journalists that don't have a personality,

257

um, decided that, decided that what she

did was unprofessional, even though she

258

has interviewed President Obama before,

and you don't get to interview President

259

Obama from being unprofessional or not

being 25 plus years as a journalist.

260

She's been a journalist for 25 plus years.

261

And so she Right.

262

Sorry.

263

No, go ahead.

264

I, girl.

265

What?

266

I'm so mad.

267

Um, you know what's so funny

that you said, give me, like,

268

she gave him his flowers.

269

It's like, that's what we do.

270

When I saw the reaction to what

she did and, and just in general,

271

like in, since, since that.

272

Inter, like since her, her, I

guess viral inter like a comment.

273

Comment to Liam Cohen and just saying.

274

You did good.

275

Nobody expected that the Jags were gonna

become a 13 win team from a 13 lost team.

276

Nobody expected that y'all were

gonna get into this playoffs.

277

No one expected you were

going to win the NFC South.

278

I'm sorry, the a FC South.

279

No one expected any of this.

280

So you do, you did.

281

Good boy.

282

Like we didn't think that

this, like, so thank you.

283

You did good.

284

And when you're a local reporter, you

tend to have to have relationships with

285

the coaches, the coaching staff, the

players, you know, the people there.

286

So she's been covering, clearly

she's been covering Jacksonville

287

sports for many years.

288

And so what was funny is I was thinking

about how we do the flowers and the

289

drinks kind of, and it came from more

of a reality tv, um, place than, um,

290

than a, than a, uh, a, you know, flower.

291

But I'm, I'm happy that that's what we

do here, is that we do give our flowers

292

and we can recognize it on a week to

week to week basis because mm-hmm.

293

I, I actually wanted to talk to

you a little bit, not, I don't know

294

if we don't have to go too long

on it, but this is kind of what

295

LeBron was talking about last year.

296

I don't know if you remember, uh,

his comments about how negative

297

the sports media's become, and like

everyone's got criticisms and then

298

people were like, well, LeBron,

like, you gotta take it, or whatever.

299

But it, it, it became kind of a talking

point, but I think this is one example of

300

how negative the sports journalists are.

301

They can't even just let a comment slide,

um, without saying something slick.

302

And also, by the way, shut out to

Matt Barnes and, uh, he read for

303

filth a few people, um, by name.

304

He had the receipts and

he read them for filth.

305

And I appreciate that.

306

Um, I appreciate everybody.

307

I appreciate.

308

Also shout out to Sha to Pat McAfee.

309

Shout out to him.

310

He even talked about this on his

show yesterday and he's like, this

311

is just crazy that you guys are

being so negative about someone

312

who just said something positive

and, and they're saying 27 seconds.

313

So it's even, it's, it's like less

than 30 seconds has now created

314

this whole crazy viral thing.

315

But, but I, I had a question in all

of that, so hopefully I can repeat it.

316

What do you think now, based on what

LeBron said last year, um, and about the,

317

like the sports media and the criticism,

do you feel like it's valid, I guess,

318

or, yeah, and, um, even, um, as much

just people don't like Aaron Rogers.

319

Aaron Rogers said it last night.

320

He said like, it is like these

media, it is nothing but hot

321

text at the hot text toxicity.

322

Saying that somebody should

be on a hot seat and you never

323

even been in their shoes.

324

You have no idea what it's

like to be a head coach.

325

You have no idea what it's like to

stand, to, to be in those locker rooms.

326

Exactly.

327

You have no idea what, like,

to be in those team meetings.

328

Exactly.

329

Watching film 24 7.

330

Missing time with your family.

331

Yeah.

332

Missing time.

333

You don't have a life outside of,

and so, and you know, as a assistant

334

coaches, they don't make that, they

don't make like as much as head coaches.

335

No.

336

And so I say that to say these hot ticks

become, or these hot ticks in these

337

headlines from clickbait are so toxic.

338

And what makes them even worse for

me is that they can say, oh, this

339

information came from an anonymous source.

340

Right.

341

Or, um, there was an article that

was put out by Diana Sini mm-hmm.

342

And, um, that said the harps was fired.

343

And, and, and I'm so disappointed.

344

And the New York Times were

putting it out, it said the hot

345

bar was fired over the phone.

346

And I said, and, and, and that, and that

article has now gone to every website.

347

Um, sports Illustrator put it out,

all these different websites, but we

348

like basically reposted her article.

349

And I made a comment and I saw it and

I said, you know, this is so dangerous

350

to say because your article is filled

with, um, anonymous, anonymous sources.

351

And I just think that's not, I

just think that that's not right.

352

And so this, this guy, white

guy, of course, he comment and

353

he says she's a great reporter.

354

Um, nothing she said was wrong.

355

Um, nobody that works with

the Ravens would actually put

356

their name on the article.

357

So she has to give them

an, an anonymity mm-hmm.

358

Anonymity.

359

And I'm like, that's my whole point.

360

If your, if your entire article was

based off that, that, and you can't

361

name your source, stop saying it.

362

Right.

363

Don't talk to press.

364

But that's, but that's what it is.

365

It's, it's nothing but.

366

Sources and anonymous sources.

367

Yeah.

368

And I, and I, frustrating and to your

point, it's frustrating and to your

369

point, it's also this, this thing

where, um, where we trust in the

370

articles that are being written and

published by reputable sources, um,

371

majority, let me say it this way.

372

There are few and far between, I

guess, of us that like, are like,

373

yeah, New York Times is, is reputable.

374

They wouldn't put something out there

that is not fact checked and all that.

375

However, for many years Brian Williams

was creating, making up stories.

376

There are people who make things up.

377

And so you have to be, we, we

have to always have a level of

378

discernment and critical thinking.

379

And this is called critical

thinking to your point.

380

It's like we, it's just

completely lost on us.

381

Um, and I just think our blind trust,

sometimes it's, it, they take advantage

382

of it and all of it is really just to

pour more money for the advertisers to

383

spend more money and for us to constantly

be like inundated with commercials.

384

Commercials commercial.

385

Buy this, buy this, buy this, buy this.

386

But there have been people who have, have

been called to carpet and lost their jobs

387

because they were reporting fake things

or saying things that were not true.

388

And, yeah, my, my thing is like

if the person can't say it, if you

389

can't go back and say, so and so

said this, or ask, no, I don't care.

390

If they can't go on the record, then

don't, then don't, don't say nothing.

391

Don't publish it.

392

She still has yet to

say who told her that?

393

But isn't that the same person

who said she had a tip and

394

wrote an article about AJ Brown?

395

It, I'm pretty sure I do remember her

name coming up in the this, and I,

396

and I, I don't know, I think sometimes

there's also this whole PR engine that

397

happens that I'm sure, you know, folks

might not, may or may not be very, um,

398

familiar with, but, you know, there are

PR firms that are hired for this whole

399

intent was to throw stories out there.

400

If you haven't seen the

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry

401

documentary on Netflix mm-hmm.

402

They break it down pretty well about

how, the people who manage the monarchy.

403

It's not necessarily like.

404

The, the actual royals, it's like the

people who manage, you know, the, the

405

face and the, the popularity of the

brand of the royals in the, in the uk.

406

And so they break it down like

they feed different stories to

407

distract us from other things.

408

There's, you know, that's what's going

on right now with these hardballs thing.

409

Sacrifice for this.

410

Mm-hmm.

411

Right.

412

Um, so it's, I think there's a bunch

of that happening as well as, Hey, we

413

wanna have a, a story about Harbaugh too.

414

So like, let's just create, like,

just go talk to some people.

415

Um, and I, and I love that you said

that, um, Adriana, about the coaching

416

staff and, and like repeated, you know,

air modules because, uh, just I, we

417

all, we don't see all the work that

goes into the week by week prep, but

418

there are head coaches that, um, do

require that they're like assistant

419

coaches are at the facility 24 7, 365,

or not, I don't wanna say three, let's

420

say 24 7 throughout the entire season.

421

And they never really, they honestly

never, they never take time off.

422

They don't really take time off.

423

Right.

424

Because you got, um, 'cause right now

we've got all the interviews happening,

425

but once the Super Bowl happens, then.

426

End of the month, we got, we got

combine, and then a few about a month

427

later, then we gotta go to, uh, we're

going to draft stuff and we got this.

428

Mm-hmm.

429

And we got, we have deadlines on

signing free agents, and we have mm-hmm.

430

It's just so much work.

431

And I, I agree with you that I

don't think people, uh, I, I just,

432

it's like someone said this that,

um, you don't really understand the

433

hard work that it takes to get out

there every day and to do the work.

434

And so I'm hopeful that that's

the perspective that a lot of

435

our, um, that the, our athletes,

our favorites, um, do take.

436

It seems like that's what Jalen,

Jalen has come to terms with.

437

I love them.

438

I love him.

439

So when I sent him his flowers, I

said, you know, I love him flowers.

440

I sent his mom a message.

441

I sent him a message.

442

I dunno if he saw it, but you know, I

said, here's the thing, here's the thing.

443

And we could touch on it very lightly.

444

When I love him because, well, for

many reasons, but one of the reasons

445

is the, the lack of an endorsement.

446

Uh, but not saying it out there

like my man, Mike Tomlin, do I, I

447

really, very much appreciate it.

448

And he tries, he tries ways

to speak positively, but to,

449

to maintain a level of truth.

450

And so I appreciate that.

451

Um, they had a a, a freeze.

452

They, they showed like the end of the game

and when they were called the, the timeout

453

for Jalen, um, to communicate a play,

and Jalen, they said, he looked stunned.

454

I didn't watch the end of the game.

455

I'm sorry.

456

I started watching it and

then I said, you know what?

457

He did look stunned.

458

He looked confused.

459

And I, I, I was confused as to, while

there were multiple timeouts left, um,

460

for the Eagles and they weren't used.

461

I was confused by so much.

462

A lot of confusion.

463

I was confused by the O line failing him.

464

I was confused by the,

by the false starts.

465

I was confused about all of the

lack of discipline that Nick

466

Siri's team Con continues to have.

467

But you know, but in the first

half they were creating holes.

468

Saquon had like 65 yards.

469

Like all the girls, I don't

nobody say Quan Curse that team.

470

Oof.

471

You go.

472

When y'all went to kiss the ring

and then I thought it reversed.

473

He went by his himself.

474

He went by his himself.

475

Oh, he definitely did.

476

But also some of them, half of them did

go kiss the ring and it is what it is.

477

And so maybe things will be different.

478

Um, IEC, uh, Kansas City Chiefs anyway,

if you have a, anyway, but they are, I say

479

that, um, that with the Eagles game, um.

480

The, I watched the first kind of set of

downs and I was like, oh, okay, okay.

481

Me too.

482

I had hope.

483

Yeah.

484

And then I went, I said, look, I'm

not gonna be able to watch this,

485

like, just in my, my apartment.

486

So I actually went and ran errands

and I just had it on my Sirius and

487

I was listening to, um, uh, uh,

the, the local chain play by Yeah.

488

Our, our Eagles Play by Play commentators.

489

And it was so funny 'cause I went

first to the NFL Networks Radio series.

490

Mm-hmm.

491

And I was like, this doesn't

sound like me, Meryl.

492

And then I gotta go to like, either

like, um, mad Dog or something.

493

No, I actually had to go to, to the two

twenties and I had to go to the NFL.

494

They didn't even have him on Mad Dog.

495

It was, which is fine.

496

Um, but I had to listen

to him, him at Knight.

497

That's weird.

498

Yeah.

499

Meryl Knight.

500

Oh, because it was the only show.

501

It was the only one.

502

Yeah.

503

So the NFL had their own people.

504

Ew.

505

Yeah.

506

Somebody wants to hear them.

507

Um, unless it's the, unless

it's the European guy.

508

We all love that guy that, oh, I love him.

509

Yes.

510

Oh, I love him.

511

Do we know who he's, I don't

know, but we gotta find him.

512

He needs to come through.

513

Um, but yeah, so I was listening to it,

and then at the end of the, as in the,

514

in the third and fourth quarter, Meryl's

like, look, I, he's like, it looks like

515

Jalen is seeing that when he changes the

play on the line, like the second play

516

option, that the defense is already in

position to defend against that play.

517

And so when I heard him say that, I

was like, oh Lord, that's, that's the

518

problem that it's so, it's so readable.

519

It's so easy to read.

520

It's so easy to figure out.

521

And they keep being like, oh, we don't

know what happens in the second half.

522

Like, why do people, because like

they have a first half full of tape

523

that probably helps them tell them

what's going on in the second half.

524

Or they're playing just so

they're playing not to lose,

525

like Jalen said in week three.

526

Thank you for the.

527

The clip, uh, whatever podcast I watch.

528

So anything else that you,

that you have about this game?

529

'cause I'm, no, we can move on.

530

I know how it is when we talk about our

teams, I, I'll say, you know what it is

531

because we, what we'll do is we'll start

and we'll see, I don't got a lot of say.

532

And then you start getting, you

know, getting a little bit angry,

533

a little bit of anger creeps in.

534

But I will, what I will say is,

535

all the Eagles fans, I felt the energy,

I felt the doubtful energy from all

536

of the Eagles fans all last week.

537

And I think I even texted you

like, what is the problem?

538

Like, what are y'all, like,

why are y'all asking this way?

539

And you know, y'all, and you

said that, you said, you know, we

540

have a great defense and what I'm

concerned about is the offense.

541

I'm concerned.

542

And it was never a question

about Gene and her team.

543

What was a question about the play

calling Simone with the sports.

544

Everybody knows my bestie,

she said the same thing.

545

She was like, I actually

had to work that day.

546

And I'm not, I'm probably

won't watch the game at all.

547

It's hard.

548

And I'm like, why?

549

And she's like, 'cause I'm not, I'm

not dealing with dead heartbreak.

550

Like, I'm not doing it.

551

You know what it is?

552

It's that.

553

And, and I think I, I don't know

if I've said it, but it's just

554

like, it, they, they weren't fun.

555

I was relieved that they lost because

they haven't been fun to watch.

556

And I think someone said that, that Nick

Siri gaslit us all this felt like, dang,

557

y'all using big people words for this.

558

But I, but to, to be fair, I just

feel like it's like we kept on,

559

everyone's saying the same thing

and we just don't see a change.

560

And it's like, if we see it,

why can't you guys see it?

561

Anyway?

562

But congrats to the 49 ERs.

563

I see.

564

I saw it.

565

I just thought that Jalen

was gonna figure it out.

566

I actually thought that Jalen my,

I actually thought that Jalen was

567

going to have a secret meeting.

568

With like the offense and be like, look,

when they say this, we gonna do this.

569

But, um, I, I, but again, I can't, this

man gets paid, you know, like by this

570

organization that's above his paper.

571

I think that him and Devonte

Smith keep having secret meetings.

572

It's obvious.

573

I agree.

574

That that's his like, and oh yeah,

that's his bestie, bestie and Jaylen.

575

I'm not saying Jaylen, I'm

not saying y'all having secret

576

meetings, but I am saying Right.

577

Y'all seem to be on the same page.

578

On the same page.

579

Mm-hmm.

580

And what's his name?

581

God.

582

Oh, oh, uh, Goddard.

583

The Titan, Dallas Goddard.

584

That's his name.

585

They on the same page.

586

That's his manay.

587

They on the same page.

588

And I think that's where like, just how,

you know, we have the Lamar, uh mm-hmm.

589

Likely Andrew Andrew's connection.

590

Jaylen, you and Dallas and, uh, Devonte.

591

Mm-hmm.

592

Y'all can, yeah.

593

Y'all, y'all could, y'all can go

back to the Super Bowl with that.

594

Uh, let put, y can leave him on his sofa.

595

Let me put Johann Dotson

on that team as well.

596

Mm-hmm.

597

And again, um, and I

don't know Justin Jeffers.

598

J did you see, did you see my,

uh, my post free Justin Jefferson?

599

I've been, I've been saying that

all season, but I said trade to

600

the, we can trade, we can trade.

601

Um, anyway, let's go.

602

Chargers, Patriots.

603

I did not watch this game.

604

Um, but I can say that I heard that Justin

Herbert was sacked five to six times.

605

Was that how much?

606

Lemme tell you something.

607

Lemme tell you something.

608

Lemme tell you something.

609

It was better to watch Paint Dry than

to watch that game the Patriots had.

610

The, and the Patriot schedule was ranked

number 30 in strength of schedule,

611

and they will get exposed on Saturday.

612

I'm not saying Drake May is not like that.

613

'cause he is, he's like that.

614

He's like that.

615

And I gave him his flowers last year.

616

But when I'm saying to everybody

that's listening, y'all was

617

number 30 with y'all schedule,

which don't always mean anything.

618

Right.

619

But I, I'm just, let's just

put some context to it.

620

We gonna put, we just gonna, we're

gonna throw some things out there.

621

Um, and it, but what I'm, what I'm

saying is it showed on something

622

like, I don't understand why the

why, I don't understand why the, why

623

Philly didn't get the night game.

624

I've read an article on Yahoo that

shaded the heck out of the NFL over

625

the way that the scheduling happened

that basically they ran out of,

626

because of the whole Amazon, um, deal.

627

They had to choose one of the games

to put on Amazon, and they were like,

628

yeah, put the Philly game there.

629

And they were like, absolutely not.

630

We are not putting the

Philly game on on Amazon.

631

And so, unfortunately, because of

the way that the rest schedule is

632

supposed to happen, they were like,

let's put the NFC games on this, on

633

that Saturday so that the, the teams

that come outta Saturday have, you

634

know, I guess the same amount of time.

635

But that, that theory doesn't make sense

because the a FC like already, like,

636

like it would, like a FFC has a different

schedule because Monday night was ESPN.

637

So I, I believe that they should all

play on the same day, um, because I

638

don't think it's very fair for the

rest, the resting part of this, but.

639

There's a, there's an article

that was like running them down.

640

Like, because name the Texans, they

definitely, they don't, they don't,

641

they gotta turn it right around.

642

Yeah.

643

And they have to travel, right.

644

So, yeah.

645

That's not fair to them.

646

Shout out to the te

First of all, shout out.

647

Shout to Thetans H Town.

648

It's going down.

649

Came in there.

650

I think they call that a BTA, um, oh.

651

Shout out to Dika.

652

Shout out to, uh, cj Out to that defense.

653

Baby.

654

Shout.

655

Y'all shout defense.

656

Their defense is going see the, is

gonna be in versus the bill and whoever.

657

So, um, do you, is Aaron gonna come back?

658

Um, based off of what he said

last night, I don't think so.

659

Really?

660

Damn.

661

Yeah.

662

And I watched it and I normally don't

care to watch that kind of stuff, but

663

I was like, Adriana, you know, watch it

because this, this could be historical.

664

Like he could really be

finally saying, yeah, I'm good.

665

I won.

666

I wanna say two things about this game.

667

Sure.

668

Um,

669

I wanna say that I personally and

most of us did not believe that

670

Aaron Rogers still had it in him.

671

Uh, and I wish that he would have, I

don't, you know, I hate to steal those,

672

but what I do believe is he should

have went to, if he would've went to

673

Pittsburgh a little, a little sooner.

674

Yes.

675

Him to George Pickens.

676

Mm-hmm.

677

Sick.

678

Mm-hmm.

679

Mm-hmm.

680

He, Devante might have, Devante

Adams might've come over to, to

681

Pittsburgh instead of them going

to the, that would've been, I agree

682

with you, he should have been, that

Pittsburgh should have been his stop.

683

I think it's much better.

684

Because they would've beat the

hell outta us, uh, two years ago.

685

Because, you know, we, we had,

I forgot his name right now,

686

because I, I hated him so much.

687

Brandon, can't think of his last

name, but he was terrible for,

688

um, in our, in our secondary.

689

Anyway, I say that to say, watching

Aaron Rod just give Mike Toma

690

his flowers and defend him last

night, said, said a lot to me.

691

Mm-hmm.

692

Because we all know Aaron is a butt white.

693

Um, but he knows what a

good coach looks like.

694

Mm-hmm.

695

He sure does.

696

And

697

we definitely, I think we definitely

might have sold his play his last

698

game, but it's like, um, I don't,

I just think, I think for physical

699

purposes, he shouldn't play anymore.

700

Right.

701

Because when he took that last sack, he

was on that ground, like, yeah, fuck.

702

He, like, I text my, I

text my friend like, uh.

703

He, like, he getting up, the one that he

just took, he just, uh, tripped over his

704

own player and just sat, just laid down.

705

Mm-hmm.

706

I was like, yeah, I think he

might be dumb with football.

707

Um, I, the only thing, the only thing

I have to say about that is if y'all

708

want Mike out and now y'all part

ways, Mike, please move you and your

709

beautiful wife and your family across

the state, um, and then Harry and

710

Lori, you guys gotta do that deal.

711

You gotta grab him

because we can find an oc.

712

But finding a coach with that much

experience, but so much player buy-in,

713

like the players really like him.

714

Mm-hmm.

715

And he is very well respected.

716

Please, I'll take him any day.

717

So the way that he connects

with every player, no matter how

718

young they are or old they are.

719

Never Antonio, uh, brown on that team.

720

And we didn't know how, uh, wild

for the Night Antonio was until

721

after staying with Jewish Pickens.

722

Amen.

723

Um, same with Ben.

724

Ain't gonna talk about that, but

don't even get me started on Mr.

725

Berger.

726

Well, guess what, um, Anquan

Bolden was saying about Jim

727

Hubble versus John Hubble.

728

Mm-hmm.

729

He said Jim is more of a players coach.

730

Yeah.

731

John is not.

732

Oh.

733

And that's why to That's which, it's

something that I knew as a Ravens fan.

734

It's something I've heard.

735

Yeah.

736

Um, you know, my, my dad has

like close relationships.

737

See now see my dad, he'll

tell you something and he'll

738

tell you exactly who told him.

739

But he's not writing sports articles.

740

But, and I'm not gonna repeat what,

you know, who he hears stuff from.

741

Yeah.

742

But I remember years ago, my dad,

my dad's not even a sports person.

743

He was like, John Har, you

know, very much runs the team.

744

Like he's a college coach.

745

And so like, he treated grown

men like they were kids.

746

And that was an issue.

747

That was an issue that came up in 2013.

748

Wow.

749

And so he never, John never

really wanted to change his ways.

750

Mm-hmm.

751

And the thing, I think I told you

this last week, and I'm saying it

752

again, these kids are TikTok kids.

753

Mm-hmm.

754

You different, they placing some TikTok

videos, something, you know, even

755

Dawn, uh, coach Dawn know she mm-hmm.

756

She, you have to connect

with your players.

757

Yes.

758

You have to connect with your players.

759

Yes.

760

If you don't, I, you know, I

was a manager for a long time.

761

You gotta have some, if you don't

have buyin, you don't have a team.

762

You don't, you don't.

763

And your quarterback

is not buying into you.

764

Definitely don't wave with me.

765

So I'll say that Jim Harbaugh, like, what

I like real, what I really like about

766

him and his style is, uh, where if you

ever see them pre-game, pre-game, he's

767

out there warming up the quarterback,

like he's tossing the ball with him.

768

Mm-hmm.

769

You know, he's sitting there and I always

thought that was real cool 'cause I'm

770

like, wow, like you are the head coach.

771

You don't have to do this.

772

But it's just, to me, it just shows

like the bond and the, you know,

773

like what he's trying to do and

how he's trying to, to navigate it.

774

But y'all need to give Jim some

money to get a OO line because

775

Justin Herbert does not serve to

be sacked six times and be battled.

776

Ma don, it just, it just ain't right.

777

Then he just stop blanking

him above Jalen hers.

778

So, yeah, I don't, again,

the sports journalism, quote

779

unquote, is just noted anymore.

780

Like all they care about

is young at each other.

781

And all these really crazy

takes that don't make any sense.

782

I, I miss boring news.

783

Can we go back to boring

news because that, that's me.

784

We got somebody.

785

Okay.

786

Divisional playoffs are coming.

787

Let's talk, let's, uh,

let's talk about the NFC.

788

We got the Seahawks versus

the 49 ERs, bears versus Rams.

789

Who you got in each of these games?

790

Um,

791

the, I really don't know.

792

I'm scared.

793

I think with the, where I,

where I'm at right now is.

794

The Seahawks, I think are gonna beat

the 49 ERs, but it also, there are

795

three north, uh, there are three

NFC West teams in the divisional

796

playoffs and only one NFC North team.

797

So that means East and the South

are not represented at all.

798

Last season it was Detroit, US

Washington, and, uh, who, uh, the Rams.

799

So it was, uh, NFC West one Team, two

from the east and one from the north.

800

So I, I do think the Seahawks 49 ERs

game's gonna be different because

801

their divisional opponents and it's

been, they, this is their third game,

802

you know, against each other and they

just came off of a brutal game, right.

803

With the Bears and the Rams.

804

I think this is about coaching

and I think this is gonna be about

805

whose offense can get out there.

806

And I, I kind of gotta take the Rams.

807

Um.

808

Only, just only, and I don't tell Caleb

on you only because of the fact that Matt

809

Stafford is just very so experienced.

810

Mm-hmm.

811

And, and Sean Mc Bays is so, but

it's just like, just like I'm, I'm

812

gonna take the bills over the Broncos

just 'cause Josh Allen is hungry.

813

You say, I am taking up those

little Broncos and I'm taking

814

the Texans over the Patriot.

815

You're taking who?

816

The, I'm taking, I don't know

what the Seahawks 49 ERs.

817

Yeah.

818

I don't know what the

Seahawks 49 ERs game.

819

Um, it's going be defense versus defense.

820

It's probably gonna be the Hawks.

821

The fact that the fact that Mike

McDonald was going get a Super Bowl

822

ring before John Haw Ball got his

second, um, is honestly going to

823

never, I'm not, I, I will not be

able to sleep if the Seahawks get it.

824

Um, but yeah, I think it's gonna

be the Seahawks 49 ERs don't

825

have, um, George Kittle, he went

out with the Achilles injury.

826

They still beat the Eagles.

827

The Eagles did not beat,

they did not beat the Eagles.

828

I think the Eagles beat themselves

just like the Ravens they got.

829

And it's not even being outcoached, the

just the, the coaching was terrible.

830

I don't know.

831

No comment, no comments.

832

Anyway, so, uh, Seahawks 49 ERs.

833

You have, you don't have a pick.

834

I have got the Seahawks, but you could

just put Seahawk, you could put Seahawks.

835

Okay.

836

And then for the Bears and the Rams.

837

Look on Bears.

838

Look on bears and the

final second of the game.

839

Okay.

840

Okay.

841

This has been so hard for me to

pick 'cause I just, I can't, I,

842

because the comeback, you know,

they're the comeback bears, you know.

843

But McVay and Stafford

have a lot of experience.

844

They do have a lot of experience.

845

They do.

846

So I'm gonna go with the Rams, but I'm,

I think Carolina exposed them though.

847

Fair.

848

Fair.

849

That's very fair.

850

The game.

851

I don't know if their damn

Bears defense can, yeah.

852

I don't know.

853

I don't know.

854

Okay.

855

Broncos and Bills, did you

say you're taking the Broncos?

856

No, I say bills.

857

Okay.

858

Yeah, I'm taking the bills.

859

Just ask Sean, Josh.

860

Josh Allen wants it.

861

I just don't like Sean Payton and

I, and I want Josh Ellen to get it.

862

Um, I like the, I like the

Broncos removing head coach.

863

I, I can appreciate what the Broncos have

done and put together and Niks, you know,

864

people are like, oh, you know, knew.

865

But he, he did spend some

time in college right?

866

With it.

867

Wasn't he either like

six years or something.

868

So like, that man's just about as

old as Jalen, hers is, but I digress.

869

Um, but shout out, I do like that Bronco,

the Broncos, but I like without said

870

individual, but I also wanna make sure

that hopefully they're not gonna be too

871

violent to the point of giving someone a

concussion or trying to take someone out

872

of the game, kind of like they've done.

873

So hopefully the bills will

survive that in Josh Allen.

874

And then lastly, you said that the

Patriots and Texans, you thought

875

that, uh, the Texans were gonna win.

876

Texans, they go say Texans.

877

Yeah.

878

Um, last but not least, the Rooney Rule.

879

Uh, I think it's important for

us to talk about the Rooney Rule

880

because it's something that, um,

people don't really know much about.

881

Mm-hmm.

882

And um, it's part of this whole head

coaching search because even though John

883

Harbaugh's big name and, you know, all

these other people are big names, there is

884

a Rooney Rule and there's a reason why we

don't immediately see someone get the job.

885

Um, so I don't know.

886

Do you want me to, to talk about it?

887

You wanna talk about it?

888

Oh yeah, you can talk about it.

889

Okay.

890

We can talk about it for sure.

891

So the Rooney Rule is a policy

from the NFL that requires, uh, the

892

teams to league teams to interview,

uh, people from underrepresented

893

communities for head coaching and

senior football operation jobs.

894

Um, it's, it's part of, um, making sure

that everyone's got, um, an opportunity.

895

And it's named after Dan Rooney, who's

the former owner of the Pittsburgh

896

Steelers, and he actually was the,

the League Diversity Committee.

897

Now, this is about, this is all about

giving people an opportunity to interview.

898

Mm-hmm.

899

It's not necessarily saying that

you have to like, choose that

900

person, however it needs to be.

901

Um, someone who is from underrepresented.

902

Community here in the US or

also could be from a woman.

903

And so there was just a bunch of,

uh, backlash or there was a bunch of

904

firings of head coaches, um, that were

from underrepresented communities.

905

And, um, there's actually like a whole

study that was, that was researched, that

906

showed, um, you know, that black head

coaches were um, more likely were less

907

likely to be hired and more likely to

be fired than their white counterparts,

908

even though they have those with

higher winning percentages of games.

909

So I.

910

Now, um, we've got this and um, and so I

just wanted to just highlight that for the

911

girlies and the people who might not know

that that's a part of this whole thing.

912

So one of the reasons why we are not

necessarily hearing anybody being

913

announced as a coaching candidate

is because as a coach, if they,

914

even if it's been decided offline,

is because they've gotta make sure

915

that part of their application and

vetting process does include people

916

from underrepresented communities.

917

Um, the end.

918

Oh, I, um, I'm actually

making a reel about it.

919

Um, just posting tomorrow.

920

So That's so funny.

921

That's, so that's great.

922

Yeah.

923

So we still, it's important to

understand, um, but unfortunately,

924

like we still saw two African American

coaches who only had one year of an

925

opportunity last year to, uh, be coaches.

926

And the fact that people are saying,

fire Aaron Glen, after one year, I hated

927

that conversation with two quarterbacks

with with one quarterback that's a

928

hundred another quarterback that we

don't know what is going on with him.

929

Please stop playing with him.

930

It's a rebuild year.

931

Please stop playing with Aaron Glen.

932

Please, please stop playing with him.

933

You know, getting frustrated

from getting frustrated.

934

I know, and this is, I don't know if

I, I might cut this from the episode

935

last week, but we did go, sorry.

936

I did, I think I went on a tear about the,

the ESPN Rex Ryan group talking about the

937

guys don't wanna play for, um, for Aaron

Glenn, even though it's, and, and how,

938

uh, Randy Moss had to step in and be like.

939

This is supposed to be

a tear down year, right?

940

Like this is not supposed to

be a winning season for them.

941

And that, and then the whole, uh,

invention of a, a team that's never,

942

not had an interception, a season

all of a sudden becoming a big deal.

943

Never have I ever heard about this stat.

944

And this is the one stat that you're

gonna go riding off and going at, like,

945

let's just take a step back from it.

946

Mm-hmm.

947

No team has had, there's not one team

in the NFL that's gone the entire

948

season without an interception.

949

We've never heard this,

we've never heard about this.

950

Right.

951

Um, until you guys wanted to bring

it up against Aaron Gunn in the Jets.

952

So it just felt weird to

me and I didn't like it.

953

Nobody cared about the stat.

954

And, um, last week we, I think, again, I

think I might have like cut this part, but

955

we saw the highest, the person with the

highest number of interceptions was seven.

956

Five or seven.

957

I mean, that to me is the

person with the highest.

958

This isn't the Sac record.

959

This isn't 23 sacs, this

is seven interceptions.

960

Um, and I think on our team, we

might've had two, two or three.

961

That was it.

962

So it's like you don't act

like this is, like everybody

963

is just getting it, doing it.

964

It's literally didn't happen

very often in the season.

965

Um, so anyway, I'm looking forward.

966

He's NFL season.

967

I can't wait to he get.

968

And then on top of the coaching vacancies

that we talked about last week, like

969

falcons, giants, Cardinals, Titans,

Raiders, Browns, Ravens and dolphins.

970

There have been assistants

who have been also fired.

971

So there will be, there are,

uh, assistants that are,

972

uh, vacancies that are open.

973

I just haven't listed them all.

974

Yeah.

975

And I think we recorded, we recorded

about five hours before, probably about

976

four hours before John Harbo was fired.

977

We did.

978

We did.

979

We did.

980

That was, that was a, that was a doozy.

981

That was a doozy.

982

Um, all I know is I keep seeing

Kevin Stefanski mentioned in the

983

Eagles because it's not a, it's not

a matter of if the ROC is going to

984

get fired, it's a matter of when.

985

Mm-hmm.

986

And so they're saying that

someone was trying to float Kevin

987

Stefanski in the midst of all this.

988

And I was like, really?

989

Okay.

990

Um, oh.

991

Do you want to, do you wanna

talk college football playoffs

992

before we do flowers and drinks?

993

Or would you like to do

flowers and drinks first?

994

Um, we can do flowers and drinks first.

995

Okay.

996

Um, do you have any from the girlies?

997

Yes.

998

Oh, um.

999

We got flowers, you know, and the, well,

my flowers, as you pull, as we pull, as

00:49:08,450 --> 00:49:12,020

you pull it up, I'll just share that,

you know, this is, uh, the time in our

00:49:12,020 --> 00:49:16,700

show that we like to give flowers to

those folks that really put it, uh, that

00:49:16,700 --> 00:49:18,470

did great work on and off the field.

00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:22,730

Uh, we also in housewife

fashion, like to throw drinks.

00:49:22,790 --> 00:49:30,110

Uh, think about Lisa Rena, uh, and,

and Kim Richards, uh, from Beverly

00:49:30,110 --> 00:49:34,280

Hills Housewives on the Amsterdam

trip or wherever they were throwing,

00:49:34,430 --> 00:49:35,780

throwing drinks at each other.

00:49:36,110 --> 00:49:39,170

Um, this is, this is this

time that we get to do that.

00:49:39,170 --> 00:49:43,250

So, um, I guess I'm not

really, uh, I'm a fan.

00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,460

I'm not a journalist

according to all these people.

00:49:46,460 --> 00:49:47,090

But go ahead.

00:49:47,540 --> 00:49:48,800

Uh, flowers and drinks.

00:49:51,500 --> 00:49:51,590

Okay.

00:49:51,980 --> 00:49:55,250

Um, Robin Bobbin.

00:49:56,210 --> 00:49:56,570

Rob?

00:49:56,570 --> 00:49:56,750

Yeah.

00:49:56,810 --> 00:49:57,650

Robin Bobbin.

00:49:57,710 --> 00:49:58,820

It's my girl underscore.

00:50:00,290 --> 00:50:03,020

She's an Eagles fan and the Seahawks

fan, she said, flowers for all the

00:50:03,020 --> 00:50:07,220

teams that get to shine in this playoff

season, Tom Brady for giving us football

00:50:07,220 --> 00:50:09,860

physics, Lynn, for being who she is.

00:50:10,070 --> 00:50:11,900

Texans defense, my goodness.

00:50:12,140 --> 00:50:14,690

The bears fourth quarter heroics.

00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,270

She said frozen bricks.

00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:18,740

She ain't say drinks.

00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:20,225

Frozen bricks.

00:50:20,225 --> 00:50:20,395

Not bricks.

00:50:21,260 --> 00:50:25,100

Every so-called journalist complained

about a 22nd moment of humanity.

00:50:25,550 --> 00:50:34,280

AJ Brown's, gnarled, gnarled,

Butterfinger, um, miss Kaplan, 63, she

00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:39,230

said Flowers to the entire Houston defense

damn near good drinks, entire steal

00:50:39,230 --> 00:50:41,510

his offense, who just full out stump.

00:50:41,510 --> 00:50:42,200

Love you boys.

00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:43,400

But huge disappointment.

00:50:43,910 --> 00:50:45,530

My personal flowers.

00:50:45,710 --> 00:50:50,720

Um, I would give my personal flowers to

Wise Young for the season that he had.

00:50:50,930 --> 00:50:51,230

Amen.

00:50:51,230 --> 00:50:51,290

Yeah.

00:50:51,470 --> 00:50:56,090

Um, I think he needs a new

OC and I think he'll be fine.

00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:57,470

Um.

00:50:58,100 --> 00:50:59,210

The play calling was terrible.

00:50:59,360 --> 00:50:59,450

Mm-hmm.

00:50:59,750 --> 00:51:01,880

Uh, especially in the last

few minutes of that game.

00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:03,320

And they still had timeout stuff as well.

00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:04,760

I just don't understand.

00:51:04,765 --> 00:51:06,410

Nobody understand the time management.

00:51:06,470 --> 00:51:07,520

Nobody understands them.

00:51:07,595 --> 00:51:15,440

Um, my, my drink is obviously one,

um, the men who decided to take

00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:25,220

a stab at, um, queen Mother Lynn

Jones Turpen, and I'm gonna also

00:51:25,220 --> 00:51:27,350

say I'm throwing drinks on Steven A.

00:51:27,350 --> 00:51:27,740

Smith.

00:51:30,170 --> 00:51:30,590

Sorry.

00:51:30,590 --> 00:51:31,040

Steven.

00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:32,510

A not sorry.

00:51:35,540 --> 00:51:40,580

Uh, no reason for the drink, just in, just

generally speaking or, um, um, just lack

00:51:40,580 --> 00:51:42,650

of respect for black people and women.

00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:44,000

Oh, okay.

00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:45,740

And I'm gonna just drop

the mic right there.

00:51:46,010 --> 00:51:46,340

Okay.

00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:47,450

Go for that.

00:51:47,510 --> 00:51:49,370

Um, flowers and drinks.

00:51:49,430 --> 00:51:55,970

Uh, for me, I would like to give my

flowers to, I, I to the entire like.

00:51:56,765 --> 00:52:02,645

Eagles organization, um,

really mostly my players.

00:52:02,645 --> 00:52:06,995

That and, and Vic Fangio and the

assistants, um, that all kind

00:52:06,995 --> 00:52:10,055

of knew what was going on and

just tried to play through it.

00:52:10,625 --> 00:52:14,795

Uh, and then, um, and then also

just flowers to Mike Tomlin.

00:52:14,825 --> 00:52:16,475

You just deserve some

flowers from my love.

00:52:16,475 --> 00:52:20,195

I think it's, it's, it's hard to

navigate it, um, when you don't have

00:52:20,195 --> 00:52:24,545

personnel like other pla other teams

and within your own division as well

00:52:24,545 --> 00:52:26,285

as within the National Football League.

00:52:26,285 --> 00:52:29,255

, We need, like, y'all need

to go back and find a actual

00:52:29,255 --> 00:52:32,285

quarterback, um, that can give it.

00:52:32,705 --> 00:52:36,635

Uh, lastly, I just wanted to also

just give some flowers to the

00:52:36,635 --> 00:52:38,135

college football playoff guys.

00:52:38,135 --> 00:52:38,240

Oh, yes.

00:52:38,525 --> 00:52:42,335

Um, the, the, the guys that do

it, I, I do really enjoy their,

00:52:42,335 --> 00:52:45,095

their show and I like that.

00:52:45,095 --> 00:52:48,785

I like, uh, how Coach Saban just,

you know, when he starts cussing.

00:52:48,845 --> 00:52:49,955

I love that part.

00:52:50,015 --> 00:52:54,065

Um, but I've enjoyed watching them

because it's few and far between that I

00:52:54,065 --> 00:52:57,155

actually like a set of, like a, a panel.

00:52:57,395 --> 00:53:01,115

You know, it, it's hard for me

to get on board with the Amazon.

00:53:01,115 --> 00:53:04,235

Well, I don't, I'm not doing Prime

anymore, but Amazon Prime, it's

00:53:04,235 --> 00:53:08,015

hard for me to get on board with,

um, some of the folks on ESPN.

00:53:08,075 --> 00:53:12,480

Uh, so I do very much enjoy the college

football, uh, guys, um, who do game day.

00:53:14,090 --> 00:53:16,280

Um, I've watched a lot of

college football, by the way.

00:53:16,340 --> 00:53:18,110

It's much more than I've ever in my life.

00:53:18,110 --> 00:53:22,580

So thank, I thank them for giving

me some insights as, as I, I learn.

00:53:22,580 --> 00:53:23,210

I love to learn.

00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,220

I'm learning now I'm learning more.

00:53:25,250 --> 00:53:26,120

You learn so much.

00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:26,450

Right?

00:53:26,450 --> 00:53:29,390

And then also just, I love the

manning cast, but I, I didn't

00:53:29,390 --> 00:53:32,000

realize that they had a manning cast

going on last night, so whatever.

00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:32,750

Or Monday.

00:53:33,170 --> 00:53:39,080

Anyway, drinks my drink, obviously my

drinks are gonna go to, to, um, ROC.

00:53:39,230 --> 00:53:43,340

Um, I'm also gonna give some

drinks to these reps in that,

00:53:43,370 --> 00:53:46,460

um, in, in this, this weekend.

00:53:46,490 --> 00:53:48,170

You guys gotta be more consistent.

00:53:48,695 --> 00:53:53,045

And you guys gotta see the, the

pass interferences that happen,

00:53:53,435 --> 00:53:55,835

um, with, with better spectacles.

00:53:56,165 --> 00:53:59,165

And I need you guys to work on

where the, these, the ball is

00:53:59,165 --> 00:54:05,165

positioned on the field, um, can get

it together, get it together guys.

00:54:05,345 --> 00:54:08,225

Uh, and then just some,

uh, just drinks in general.

00:54:08,225 --> 00:54:12,635

Like, I can't even watch like some

of these telecasts because they dog

00:54:12,665 --> 00:54:17,315

out my team as well as other teams

that I like, or other people I like.

00:54:17,375 --> 00:54:21,785

They just dogg them out so bad and I just

don't wanna listen to them dog people out.

00:54:21,785 --> 00:54:26,435

So, um, we're definitely, uh,

given, given flowers obviously, you

00:54:26,435 --> 00:54:29,915

know, to miss, uh, Jones Turpen,

but also like sports journalists.

00:54:29,915 --> 00:54:34,175

Get it together, take a moment, breathe.

00:54:34,475 --> 00:54:37,595

You can be, you can be positive and also.

00:54:38,300 --> 00:54:39,950

For those people who have never did it.

00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:41,930

See, this is, this is why I love Jay-Z.

00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:42,620

Here's my rant.

00:54:42,650 --> 00:54:47,090

This is why I love Jay-Z, because he

gives you so much greater great insight.

00:54:47,390 --> 00:54:47,480

Mm-hmm.

00:54:48,290 --> 00:54:54,230

He said somebody tries to tell you

how to do it, but they never did it.

00:54:54,710 --> 00:54:56,005

And for, say it again.

00:54:56,065 --> 00:55:01,460

People, people trying to tell you

how to do it, but they never did it.

00:55:01,850 --> 00:55:02,870

I am a woman.

00:55:02,930 --> 00:55:05,420

I cannot be on the football field.

00:55:05,540 --> 00:55:07,970

Um, and I.

00:55:08,555 --> 00:55:14,105

Think as a woman I am, oh, like I can

play my flag football and I can bring

00:55:14,105 --> 00:55:19,115

that if I was ever that, but I can

only bring what I've watched and what

00:55:19,115 --> 00:55:20,674

I've heard and what I've listened to.

00:55:21,124 --> 00:55:22,025

Never have.

00:55:22,025 --> 00:55:24,124

We, I don't think we're

very negative here.

00:55:24,365 --> 00:55:26,495

We are kind of like, what's going on?

00:55:26,555 --> 00:55:27,424

What's happening?

00:55:27,454 --> 00:55:32,945

But like, I just can't take these

podcasters and sports people and just

00:55:32,945 --> 00:55:37,834

people in general just trying to act like

they know how it is to be on a field and

00:55:37,834 --> 00:55:42,065

know how it is, how fast the game goes

and know, oh, this person's at worst.

00:55:42,065 --> 00:55:45,155

It's a terrible, it's like,

but you've never played it and

00:55:45,185 --> 00:55:46,475

you never played at this level.

00:55:47,195 --> 00:55:53,674

Um, so it's a lot of clickbait, it's a lot

of money for advertisers and, um, anyway.

00:55:53,765 --> 00:55:54,485

Okay, done.

00:55:56,044 --> 00:55:58,714

Uh, let's really get quickly get

into college football playoffs and

00:55:58,714 --> 00:56:00,065

then I gotta, we gotta wrap up.

00:56:00,065 --> 00:56:01,985

We'll, we'll do reality TV next week.

00:56:02,645 --> 00:56:03,874

We'll do reality TV next week.

00:56:03,935 --> 00:56:07,145

We keep saying that, but I, but we will,

and I'll reach out to you about that.

00:56:07,535 --> 00:56:11,044

But, um, semi-finals

happened this past week.

00:56:11,134 --> 00:56:15,365

Uh, last weekend or

Thursday, Friday, Miami.

00:56:15,365 --> 00:56:17,285

There was Par Miami beat Ole Miss.

00:56:17,285 --> 00:56:18,634

Very good game, apparently.

00:56:19,025 --> 00:56:22,895

Uh, and very good by Wild Card.

00:56:22,895 --> 00:56:26,285

Weekend was a great weekend to watch

football with the college games.

00:56:26,405 --> 00:56:27,124

College games.

00:56:27,575 --> 00:56:31,775

We gonna call BTA,

Indiana and Oregon 56 22.

00:56:32,374 --> 00:56:36,814

Um, Miami versus Indiana, who you

got in the college football playoffs.

00:56:36,814 --> 00:56:38,584

The, the, the championship game.

00:56:38,584 --> 00:56:39,124

Finally,

00:56:41,980 --> 00:56:44,314

I'm, I'm gonna go with

the hot hand, Indiana.

00:56:44,915 --> 00:56:47,705

Yeah, I, I definitely feel

like Indiana's got it.

00:56:47,705 --> 00:56:52,475

But Mario Cristobal, he scares

me in a good and funny way.

00:56:52,505 --> 00:56:57,695

And so I'm curious if Carson Beck is

gonna be able to, you know, make the plays

00:56:57,695 --> 00:57:00,125

need that need to be made, um, for Miami.

00:57:00,125 --> 00:57:01,715

But they are, they are playing in Miami.

00:57:03,605 --> 00:57:07,384

And your boy, Ray, Ray, Ray, Ray

Lewis and them gonna be there.

00:57:07,775 --> 00:57:08,195

Yeah.

00:57:08,195 --> 00:57:10,660

But at the same time, Indiana's crazy.

00:57:10,660 --> 00:57:10,940

Yeah.

00:57:10,970 --> 00:57:12,305

It's their, it's their home.

00:57:13,805 --> 00:57:16,775

I can't believe they get to play

Cincinnati in their home stadium.

00:57:17,045 --> 00:57:17,555

Um,

00:57:19,740 --> 00:57:20,180

I don't know.

00:57:20,420 --> 00:57:22,025

I don't, Indiana defense.

00:57:22,595 --> 00:57:24,365

Indiana defense ain't no joke.

00:57:24,365 --> 00:57:24,995

No joke.

00:57:25,090 --> 00:57:27,905

They, they, they studied their

competitors and he didn't get

00:57:27,905 --> 00:57:29,675

the Heisman by, by accident.

00:57:29,765 --> 00:57:31,415

So he didn't, he did not.

00:57:32,315 --> 00:57:34,265

Um, he seemed read the script.

00:57:34,355 --> 00:57:36,425

But where can the girlies find you?

00:57:36,425 --> 00:57:41,375
