Lots of great games to talk about. Lots of great games tonight you said him, buddy, Happy birthday weekend to Iowa Sam, Sammy, Hey Samy, they older today? Yeah, yeah, that's inevitable. Yeah, we celebrated Sam over the weekend. Wish him a happy birthday today. The fine Oh man, he's a handsome overnight. You're like Aaron Rodgers that's okay. He's only a few years older than me. Spot is here, and of course the great Dan Byer is on stand by with your hanging out. I heard the Dan Buyer's update. He mentioned Andy Dalton. In my mind, Andy Dalton's been out of the NFL for a decade. How same? I thought the same thing, but he said andyon. I had to remind myself, like, oh yeah, he's still playing. In my mind, Andy Dalton has a sweet high and tight, sweet fade going on right now. Ready for that opportunity, Ready for the opportunity. So we do it every Monday before we get into all the games. In all the greatness, we go over week seven, but we also talk about anything you observed that made you go hmmm. So Sam the birthday boy, might as well hit it because most of this involves show Hey time for the most mean and football right Seriously, things that make you go, things that make your goal now before you get to show Hey in the NFL. I said it at the end of the week. So I just want to give everyone a homework assignment. Homework homework sucks. I don't come to Fox Sports Radio to get your homework. UBER come here to chill. Have your number two pencil, buddy boy, I have an assignment for settle down homework. Get it out of my face. What's good homework? I want everyone to watch Chad Powers. This is not a commercial, I promise you. I don't know how people are not talking about this. It's four episodes deep. If you love football and you love no, if you love stupid comedy and you love football, I don't know how more of my bonehead buddies aren't talking about this. Again, You're probably right, we'll do what they want. They just don't respect what you're saying, because no, seriously, it goes both ways. Did you watch ed Geen Monster on Netflix? Did you watch the John Candy documentary? Did you watch the Ozzie documentary? Man, We've been telling you about it now, So how about you? How about you? How about you, my little coffee cake? Yeah? Why don't you want some of those things? I will like I'll watch task is Danny g. You know that's probably sounds like an HBO fun type of shot, like an interesting one. I don't want to watch ed Gean and monsters and serial killers, So yeah, I will skip the only Halloween time and it's the number one thing on Netflix, clown. But the point is you could scream till what comes home. You could scream till your mother comes. You can tell everybody they're gonna do what they want or whatever their interests.

00:04:39
Speaker 2: Lie.

00:04:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, now that's true. But I'm just saying to our audience and our friends. For the most part, if I said dump comedy about football, but my mom stays home all the time. But if I said dumb comedy about football, I just I feel like everyone in our like group would be like, oh, yeah, that sounds good. So there's so many well, there's so many options. But you know what that does on like something fun that I'll check out when the girlfriend's out. I well know, because there's certain shows that you designate as couples watching, like Love is Blind or some other nonsense, and then there's other things you watch as a solo a han solo dolo mission, and that's probably it. But I even think she would love it because it's so silly. No, no, it's not mil No. I mean she likes trashy trash like Love is Blind. But I don't think you know that your girlfriend would have liked Kenny Powers. No, uh uh no, definitely a little up tight, no just style on. They all women were lined up for Andy uh what's his name? Danny McBride and Kenny Powers. What about Stevie and his fixing? What women like that? Dude? Women that you convinced that they like it? So NFL of course show. Hey, these are all things that everyone's talking about. But I want to give you one more thing, and I'll say that I give it a uh. I mean it must be great if your lead is this lame mass show with all the action I went down this weekend. If you're is we got to watch this Eli Manning show, then it must be the best show. Hey, listen, Bud, you don't think everyone else I'll putting earth is talking about oh runs show Hayes three home runs. I've heard it. And if it's better than your forty nine ers winning a big game last night, I've heard it. And this must be the greatest show of all time.

00:06:18
Speaker 3: It's from Friday, so no matter if the greatest performance ever, I'm putting you guys on a four minute showy timer.

00:06:24
Speaker 1: Oh wait, dude, t alright, you know what we'll get to show in football? But I wanted in all seriousness, I am interested in checking. I watch chedd Powers. I will get back to me. I will. Secondly, I just want to give a review because I'm a Cisco and Ebert all world into one. You gave me the heads up on this. I tried watching on Paramount Plus Naked Gun, which was just in the theater is now available at home. I watched it and I didn't hate it. But I'll be honest, like the reviews made it seem like I was gonna love it. I was like, was all right? I was sort of drifting on it mysel. Yeah, looks like either I'm tired or I'm bored. I don't know twenty one liners and stuff, but I feel like, uh, and this is no knock on Liam Leeson or Pam Anderson. It just feels like a very good time and place for Leslie Nielsen and I loved it back then and there were some laughs, but eh.

00:07:10
Speaker 4: Did you guys do the lock in? Because I've noticed this with myself over the last couple of months is I've got the phone in one hand and there's a show I want to watch, but I'm still being distracted by my phone.

00:07:22
Speaker 1: That's the indicator.

00:07:23
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, Like even when I started, like, now I am trying to be cognizant. If there is a recommendation to put it down, sit down and actually look at it, and if it's not good enough, then I'll drift. But I at least have to give it a chance.

00:07:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, like you're like King Draftford, you Game of Thrones, like you're waiting to give the thumbs up er thumbs down if the person like lives or dies, or like Gladiator. Honestly, you're right when Cavinos made this point before. If you're they call it like co watching. That's how you remember that memo from a year ago where they're like, they're actually creating shows for that method of watching instead of creating better content. The thought is, well, if we can't beat them, just join them. So they're trying to create such brainless shows with brainless content that you could do both at the same time, counterprogramming, because that's the way that we consume things nowadays. Yeah, that's that's our show that we were told, like, you can do whatever you want. I'd still listen to us. No, but uh, if you will find yourself scrolling and you're like, oh, I gotta rewind ten seconds I missed that that means really not into the show. Yeah, and that happens far too often nowadays. Enough of Chad Powers, I've stroked him enough. But I think you'll love it. I will check it out though, because how many times do we sit there like, eh, what's next? But thankfully we have lots of action tonight. I mean, we got to put that on the list rich even just saying the double Doozy in the NFL and a game seven. But over the weekend we just have to I know it's days old now, Danny, but I'm starting the four minute time fine because I'll say this, we need to embrace history as it unfolds because these are the stories. I guarantee you, these are the stories that your grandkids are going to ask you about. Did you see show hail Toddy? I sure did, Yes, I yes he did. And you're gonna be there feeding the ducks, telling your grandkid about the time you saw him hit three home runs and we saw the greatest postseason performance, any performance in all of history. And you know, I still think there's wiggle room for the debate between the babe and show. Hey, and that's a debate for another day, But I do think that the Babe was so far superior from his peers in that time as compared to show. Hey, but what we saw was the very few people. Yeah, but I said it on our Patreon today, rich he hit more home runs in a season than the rest of the entire league.

00:09:41
Speaker 3: Right, what was it like seeing him in person?

00:09:44
Speaker 1: I never saw, but we know how far superior his contemporaries were. Right.

00:09:50
Speaker 3: Well, you hear all the inflated stories where people say some of the stories about the Babe are inflated, so it's hard to know, like what is real and what it's hard to prepare.

00:10:00
Speaker 1: But there's still a debate because it's always the goat of their era and of their time. But that is by far, hands down the single best performance we've ever seen, and I'm not downplaying it a bit. It was amazing, And this is why we should all tune in for the next ten years of his contractor or forever or however long he plays. That we were able to witness this greatness because it's a once in a lifetime thing and we may never ever see that again, dude, And it's amazing, and I feel honored, honestly honored to be like, oh my God, I can't believe what I just saw. And you get on your phone with your buddies and your family members, like are you watching this? These are once in a lifetime moment. So even though that happened on Friday, I'm still thinking about it. You know, it's incredible what he do. When someone does something so extraordinary, I sometimes think we lose how extraordinary it really is. Like show has done so many because the past, while the president is just insane, you glorify the past, and sometimes when so and so remarkable, hey, you know, if someone has won too many comfort behind wins, it becomes second nature and you get spoiled. When you know, when a fighter just knocks everyone out, when he doesn't have a knockout, you go, oh man, it was a down fight. We get spoiled. And I think with Choo Tani, the stat line on Friday was more impressive than any little league kid who bats and pitches. I know, it's insane star little league kid, And that would be the equivalent of like when you were ten. You're like, yeah, you know when I was ten, are you you know? I have three home runs in one game and I pitched that. We're talking about stuff that you and your best little league day couldn't have that brought you to the World Series. No less, right, And there's so many things that people say about legends, but with show Hey, it's true. Like Mike and I, you know, Michael runs this place. Oh yeah, we were talking before you got here, and we were saying, how like even the sound off of his bat, really he does sound different, Like you could close your eyes and know that's the show hey. Otani home run and then the legend gets even crazier. You're like, and get this when you're talking to your grandkids. Not only did he hit three home runs, but one of them went out of the park and into the dark. No way, grandpa, that's right. Let me pull up on YouTube and here you.

00:12:22
Speaker 4: Take a little commit a kid, right hander, Patrick Deals and old Tani towering.

00:12:28
Speaker 1: Wall, high drive right field. He's done it again.

00:12:34
Speaker 5: Show Hey, Old Tani to the top of the pavilion and right field four hundred and sixty nine feet, the longest home run at Dodger Stadium this year.

00:12:47
Speaker 1: Again, longest home run. There's so many little stats like all in one game, ten strikeouts, he got the W Like everything about this performance was legendary, and so were the memes. So let me give you a few memes that I saw. Rich About two hundred and fifty Mexican kids in ten years are going to have to explain why their names sho Hey Rodriguez. That's one of my favorites because think about, honestly, think about what he's doing to the culture. Okay, how many how many Asian kids for real too are walking around with a strut right where like they may have not had that same struck before. How many Japanese kids are like, yo, that's the dude right there. How many little kids are looking at show Hey like he is the goat? You know, we have a whole different perception of what sho Hee Otani means to baseball. You just said something that I mean, you said it so I'm sure you thought it was smart. You just said something that I don't want to brush past. Sure, how many kids, especially in the Japanese community, are going to be named sho Hey after him. I recently saw something that I don't know if this will do tos like to you or not. Fernando Valezuela did for the Mexican community. It gave people something to believe in. You know, it was a new hero, a guy that didn't look like everybody else. You don't think that this how tall a show he's six foot five sixty six six seven, it's not. I think handsome Japanese dude that does everything is just making it, uh just a different game all around. And and and he's such a role but great role model for the kid. I mean, kids will be named show Hey, for sure. I bet you they might even be some little American kids with them, like Show he has a middle name or something. I brought this up show Hey, oh Tony, because you did you know this when we we talked about this the other day on our other pod. How the name Jalen? We so matter of factly, we can name a million Jalens in the world of sports and kids at your son or daughter school, Danny, do you know the story behind the name Jalen because of Jalen Rose. So, Jalen Rose's mom did a combination of his dad's name and his uncle's name. I think it was like j and Leonard. I knew the Jayleen and Jalen was never a name documented in history. There was no kid named Jalen before Jalen Rose, and then you see Scott and then you see like on the on the baby name register. And because he was such a big name in college, you know, the Michigan and then in the NBA, like Jalen created that name, So Jalen Rose. He's an argimant that he was one of the most impactful people in sports because so many people were named after him. Sho Hey is just such a big time role model and has changed I think baseball forever. Here's another meme that I saw. The Dodgers earned the entirety of Otani seven hundred million dollar contract in his first year alone, so again just changing the game. The top sixty six exit velocities by LA Dodgers hitters since sho Hey joined, sixty four of them are show Hey, Ty Oscar Hernandez is the only other two that's up there for exit velocity. But like just the things that he's doing, and they're like superhero like things you hear in storybooks, almost mythical when we look back. I love getting the privilege to see it live.

00:16:09
Speaker 3: I loved how on social media people were saying, can you explain this in NFL terms or in golf terms? This guy said, can someone please explain what Shohey did in golf terms? Thanks, and Zach wrote back, he said, a sixty three at Oakmont playing twelve holes right handed and six left handed.

00:16:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's insane, it really is. So it's incredible. And because that happened on Friday and we were here to talk about it, we got to tell you that there's an update on the guy who caught the third and historic home run of the game. There's an update there and we'll get to that later. But just so much props to what he did in that game. I think undeniably the greatest sports performance we've ever seen.

00:16:48
Speaker 4: What up DV now, just as a resident golf guy, the sixty three at Oakmont both right and left handed is way more impressive than what Oltani did, not even gloves, but just wanted to understand it. Yes, I understand. What did you shoot at Oakmont? I shot one oh two yes, day after the US Open. It was a rough day.

00:17:08
Speaker 1: The fact that you've played there, Yes, that's impressive to me. dB. Yeah, but an incredible weekend of baseball and football. And if you have any show Hey thoughts, feel free to share them, but we're witnessing greatness. So just embrace it, tell your kids, take your kids, show your kids, hey, remember this kid, and let us sink in cause we might not ever see it again. And then of course you got the NFL, which is just so much fun. Again. It was so much fun to hang with you guys celebrating Sam's birthday yesterday, watching your Niners rich and just as I came in here today, you know they were discussing on FS one. You know your boy Nick right, maybe he's Nick wrong. You tell me forty nine ers better without party, I mean, that's that's U say. I mean, Matt Jones is what four and one? Yeah, tough playing hurt, you know, and they got a pretty good thing going on right now. Or you could say great coaching. But you know, wrote down my under my things that maybe go I think that whether if you believe in the Niners to go anywhere is a different story. But one of you argue that Kyle Shanahan's coach of the year with all the injuries, Yeah, I'd say that. I mean a depleted team and this team's five and two. He's he's doing really well. He looks like Danny g And I pointed out last night. Man, he aged a lot. It's a stressful job, but yeah, he's he's making the lemonade at a dilemmas well. There's a lot of teams. I mean, there's no one that's undefeated, and the Jets are the only winless team. There's a lot of a lot of teams, do you know, hanging around in some capacity. But there's a lot of teams sitting at five and two right now. Whims that confuse me, Like the Falcons though, well, you know what, are they the most inconsistent team? Because yeah, that was a weird gauge last night. I didn't know how to really, Danny. You were all saying that last night. It was hard to last night's game.

00:19:01
Speaker 3: Right, same team who lost to the Panthers thirty to nothing, and then the same team that turned around and beat the Bills exactly.

00:19:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I'm well, are the forty nine ers better than we think? Or the Falcons just not that good? I think there's there's a couple of things. I think there's a lot of five and two teams, which is on pace for roughly twelve and five, right, So looking at a bunch of teams that are on that twelve and five pace, which you know they're not all going to stick around, So who's you know, whose luck is gonna run out? And what are the teams are gonna step it up? So we'll see. But as far as the forty nine ers go, I think it could be summed up simply with one name, Christian McCaffrey. Christian McCaffrey went healthy, just could carry a team. He really could carry a team because he could run and he can cary. I mean, you know, he's, uh, there's a double threat. There's just so much he brings to the game, Like even if the ball's not to him, just him being in the backfield creates a million thoughts for a defensive court. You know. That's funny hip of him over the weekend too, it was like there's a lot of people, there's a weird perception that a lot of people have of Christian McCaffrey who think he's like just like a small running back, like one of those smaller type, and he's like, dude, I think a lot of people have this idea of me that I'm just this small guy that really can't do a whole lot. Because I always played with Cam Newton and I was always seen next to Cam Newton and people don't realize how big, but not only that you see him, and he's always like standing next to Trent william So he's always just standing next to a bigger guy, which is why Cavino refuses to hang with really tall guys. Yeah, I don't want that. I don't want that reputation. I remember we we would we forget like he's a bigger, powerful guy, you know, so even when he's not carrying the ball, he's doing something productive.

00:20:45
Speaker 3: And rich Kittle needs to get a lot of attention because when he's out injured, those holes aren't opening the way they were last night.

00:20:52
Speaker 1: Kittle, even if the numbers aren't there, Kittle's just your presence and blocking and just creating diversions. So no doubt. And by the way, we used to do occasional shows with our pal Ryan Hollins, and Covino was like, yeah, I don't want to hang with that guy socially because it just makes me look like, makes me look like tattoo for Fantasy Islands. I mean, he's how many percentage of people, like one percentage like we had not no, no, no, like I mean like a point, there's like twelve hundred people in the world that are seven foot of tall. We worked with a skuy who was over seven foot tall. You hang out with him, take pictures of him all the time. Great guy, but it made me look terrible.

00:21:24
Speaker 6: COVENI, we can never take off your timberlands. Yeah, like George k stands in India, can never take off his take off his timberlands.

00:21:30
Speaker 1: It's crazy word when a guy over seven foot tall. But yeah, I mean I think a totally different vibe rich with Kiddle back on the team. Nice win for your forty nine ers last night. And again, I don't know how to feel about the Falcons other than they're just I saw a lot of comments of Heckel and Jiuh, Jekyl and Hyde sort of team just very inconsistent team.

00:21:52
Speaker 4: Take and take this with what you will. The Falcons came off of a big, emotional, physical win over the Bills on Monday Night football. Yeah, travel across the country on a short week and play San Francisco. I'm not taking anything away from from what CMC did last night because he was a one man show. But the deck was stacked against the Falcons.

00:22:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, that definitely has something to do with yeah too. Yeah, So your thoughts from show hey, to the game tonight, the matchup and everything you saw this weekend in the NFL.

Anything that made you go hm, we do it every Monday here on the Covino and Rich Show. You know, Danny G. Maybe go There's something Danny G does that I want to point out as a good move. Danny G travels with a football, he does, and I feel like it's a clutch move. Like anytime Danny G comes over for a barbecue, little birthday dinner, always brings a football, and I think it's a great move because who doesn't want to like dip outside for a second or just toss around the football. It's like it's your patented move. I think.

00:25:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've always had at least one football in my trunk and if there's a gathering, I always bring it in. And the only thing I felt bad about last night is your two kids started tackling each other with the football and they got into a little bit of trouble.

00:25:31
Speaker 1: Of course, I mean, I'm not going to tell Rich how to parent, but he needs to control these little rug Rather, it's a party starter though a smack punch. It's a service ball, you know. It's a comfort ball.

00:25:41
Speaker 6: Yeah, Like it's there to you know, provide comfort and services in.

00:25:44
Speaker 1: And as the old jocos. Someone breaks out any type of ball, tennis ball, football, baseball. Another guy in the room's bound to me like, yeah, let me say, let me say, you know which one I can't resist? Like, if you're holding it right now, I'd be like pass off. If I saw a racquetball, because it just has a good feel. The bounced to it a blue Hey, give me that looks like a stress ball. Hey, speaking of balls, balls to the wall, there's an update on show. Hayes third home run ball to be a weekend. We'll get to that plus last one standing. We have prizes to give away, but the NFL anything you observed over the weekend, we'll get to your phone calls. Now what means, let's say hi to Carlos in Fresnel. What's up, Carlos. Carlos, Hey, Bud, Carlos, Danny there he.

00:26:36
Speaker 8: Is inside, he questions, I guess hello, Hello, Yeah, what's up?

00:26:42
Speaker 1: Man?

00:26:43
Speaker 8: What's up? What's up? I have two questions and two comments. I guess Yeah, basically I'm on Seattle. If the big dumberd of it come through, is it a lost season?

00:26:55
Speaker 1: Lost season? No, I don't think so. Man, that was a great season for Seattle. This as far as they've pretty much come so absolutely. Yeah. I mean they say that Ken Griffy saved Safego in ninety five. I believe in the playoffs, and what have they really done since then? They've had some great teams, but this is the farthest I've seen them. So is it a wash? No? I mean I think they had a really great season. But hey, we'll see what happens tonight. I know Vladdy Guerrero is playing on a different level. Yeah, anything can happen tonight, Big dumper though, this could be a moment. Yeah, and it's the moment doesn't make or break his MVP chances and doesn't anything. Yeah, it doesn't take away from his accomplishments. What else did you have, Carlos? Yeah, he said, yeah, two things. That was one, but yeah.

00:27:45
Speaker 8: That was one. On all football, it's someone like Makefield, Darnald someone the else gonna get a ring before Alan or Jackson.

00:27:56
Speaker 1: I mean it looks like it right, yes, yeah, yeah, that always seems to happen.

00:28:00
Speaker 5: Though.

00:28:00
Speaker 1: We talked about that last week. How like, you know, we were singing Joey Flacco's praises. We're saying he was always the guy that can you believe he got one? And other greats didn't. It just happens all the time. There's gonna be another team that sneaks in there. Maybe it's because of their defense, or maybe we just underestimate their leadership. Yeah, let's say hi to Mitch and Jersey. What's up Mitch, guys.

00:28:23
Speaker 2: A couple of things in the US seeing one on the time.

00:28:27
Speaker 8: Yeah, we had to line, but we had a good.

00:28:33
Speaker 1: Start of run.

00:28:34
Speaker 2: Back said he got a possible heights in in Mayaba and Mikaya Lemon.

00:28:38
Speaker 8: But he tries to be turning cutism.

00:28:42
Speaker 2: You're chilling your your little kids.

00:28:44
Speaker 8: I mean, you m that's shoot you're doing.

00:28:47
Speaker 6: But I could hardly hear him. He was speaking another language what he was saying very fast.

00:28:54
Speaker 3: He did you even tell what's going to defer to you guys because you're from the East coast?

00:28:56
Speaker 1: Did he throw in the point because that was he spoke really quickly. Honestly, I heard Otani and Heisman.

00:29:02
Speaker 4: I thought he was upset with USC's performance against it.

00:29:05
Speaker 1: He did say he said the quarterback was cute c and he doesn't like the word cutes designated for dogs and babies, not for your quarterbacks performance. Man. I really, honestly, I was like, is anyone else hearing him? Because I mean fluent? Am I having a stroke right now?

00:29:20
Speaker 4: If you guys ever get rid of Big Mike's words of wisdom, just replace it with that and try to code that, give a koozie or a water bottle for your entire life.

00:29:30
Speaker 1: I call back anytime, which is words of Jersey, words of Jersey. I'm fluent in Jersey. Bro, you know the connection here? What I'm sorry what it was like. It was like pee wee when he called Dottie. We're going to take the rest of your phone calls. At eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. I want to hear your thoughts on the Giants collapse. I want to hear your thoughts on the Patriots. Are they the best in the AFC East. That's what everybody's saying. Things that made you go hmm. We'll get to your phone calls next, but first, an update from the Great Dan, thank you.

00:30:00
Speaker 4: Very much, Mariners. In Blue Jay's Game seven ALCS tonight in Toronto, you'll see it on Fox eight o'clock Eastern time, George Kirby goes up against Shane Bieber. Albert Poohl is no longer in the running to be the next manager of the Angel still a candidate for the Padres managerial opening. According to reports tonight, there is a Monday night football doubleheader Mike Evans and a Mecca Buca active tonight for Tampa Bay as they face the Lions coming up at seven o'clock Eastern time, both dealing with hamstring injuries. Texans and Seahawks coming up at ten o'clock Eastern time. Now, some quarterbacking news. Panthers quarterback Bryce Young suffered a high ankle sprain in their win over the Jets on Sunday. This was Panthers head coach Dave Canalis earlier today.

00:30:41
Speaker 9: We're going to go day to day on that right now, and you know, just really look at him each day, just test test the ankle in different ways to see if we can't get him back out there on Wednesday in some way shape or form now.

00:30:54
Speaker 4: The NFL networks at Andy Dalton is expected to start Week eight for Carolina against the Bills. Because of that, in Jed said coach Aaron Glenn would name is starting quarterback for their Week eight matchup in Cincinnati.

00:31:05
Speaker 3: I want to make sure that I make the right decision, and I don't want to make red decisions.

00:31:08
Speaker 4: Either, Aaron Glenn making the choice to replace Justin Fields yesterday in the second half of their loss to the Panthers with Tarad Taylor. Commander's quarterback Jaden Daniels does not have a serious hamstring strain, but it is a strain, so a status for Week eight's matchup on Monday Night football against the Chiefs is up in the air. Falcons quarterback Michael pennocks juniors day to day with a bone bruise in his foot. They have the Falcons coming up. Falcons head coach Mike McDaniel says that he is sticking with a Tongue of Iloa as their starting quarterback four Week eight against Atlanta. As for Darren Waller, the tight end as a peck injury not torn, but strained, so he could miss some time. Finally, Nuggets and God Christian Brown agreed to a five year extension. Hawk's guard Dyson Daniels gets a four year, one hundred million dollar extension in Atlanta. Guys, back to you, thanks debe.

00:31:55
Speaker 1: You've said a Poolhulse out of the running for the Angels, But where Padres? Padres? You know, it's interesting. We're so closed minded is the wrong word. We assume when a guy played for a team, or if a guy's career spanned three four teams, we assume they would be the only ones interested in them in a coaching position. How many people do you think admired Albert Poolhols from Afar? Everybody? How many gms, how many scouts? How many front offices said oh we just couldn't get him. Like so, you always assume that the guy's going to coach the team he was on, But there's twenty nine other teams that probably admired what that guy was capable of doing. And I did see a recent clip if you want to tie it all together, that Albert Poolhols talks about. Was it he that taught Otani a different move with his front foot? Have you seen that clip that's falling around like the way, almost like a little Pigeon toed how Pool Halls had that front foot in. He said, I taught that to Atani and then all of a sudden it totally just made it swing even better. So Albert big, big, you know, big student of the game. So that should be interesting to see him land somewhere. All right, Now back to things that made you go hmm, let's take one call. Now, we'll take the rest in a little bit. Paul in Minnesota wants to talk about one of the big games of the season so far that goes down tonight Lions and Bucks. So what's up, Paul.

00:33:13
Speaker 2: Hey, guys a longtime Lions fan. I live in Minnesota now so that kind of sucks, But just just wanting to get your thoughts. I think the Lions are going to make a statement tonight and be put themselves back in the league, out of the NFC, but I wanted to know what you guys thought.

00:33:30
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think what you're saying is unlikely. They're almost a touchdown favorite in Vegas. They're six and a half point favorite, so the sentiment that the Lions do make a statement at home is likely. Again, that's what Vegas is sort of thinking as well will be a double digit you know where the Lions, you know, bite your kneecaps, you know, Dan Campbell type of night. It very well could be. Baker Mayfield's not going to go sixteen and one, So there will be other ls on that schedule. Maybe tonight on the road in Detroit is one that if you lost, you don't look back and say, maybe we let that one slip. That's to me, that's like I believe this Monday night football game is both you know, both teams want it bad, so that's what makes it exciting. Yeah, I mean four and two Lions, five and one Bucks. I mean the reality is if the Lions do win. Remember earlier in the show, I said, there's a hell of a lot of teams that are five and two, which is on pace for around twelve and five, And you wonder, are there really that many twelve win teams or do a lot of these teams sim a down Who knows. We'll take your feedback and more observations from week seven and of course World Series right around the corner, all coming up right here on Fox Sports Radio Yo cn R. Kevinodrich Fox Sports Radio Live from the Fox Sports Radio Studio and it's time for our tirect play of the day. And I felt so bad for Jackson Dard and Scataboo, But people are still buzzing about what happened in Denver.

00:35:01
Speaker 4: An attempt to thirty nine yards for the win snap placement kick on the way.

00:35:08
Speaker 1: It is good.

00:35:11
Speaker 5: Bronco players celebrating, right they just won a home playoff game left them too much time.

00:35:19
Speaker 1: It was a battle that right there is courtesy of KOA eight fifty AM and ninety four to one FM, Broncos Radio. And that was our tire Act Play of the Day.

So oh Jinks Jink so Patriots rich after this weekend. Yeah, the talk of the town, what town, LazyTown, crazy town, electric city, flavor town, name being chanted. Yeah, I think the best in the AFC East again thirty one thirteen over the Titans. Just look, I mean good, Listen, you could say at the moment, yes, because they they beat the Bills in Buffalo and they turn around right here. Man, they stinked all of a sudden, Wow, they're right back in the mix. It's almost unfair, and it happens in all sports, right where like you're like, oh man, it's time to rebuild, and when the team rebuilds quick, you're almost mad at them for it, Like, well, you were supposed to suck for a decade, you're good again. It's the fair, Like when your team sucks, you just met that they suck for longer, and they really suck for what three years? Maybe they've turned it around quite quickly. That's why I'm trying to process, like, yo, they're back. Huh okay, I guess, so we got to start taking them serious. Their suck was not long lasting, no, or it was more fast as Danny g and I at Sammy's Sammy Sweetheart's birthday party yesterday. By the way, I loved the magician and balloon guy. You hired Sam. That was great, My Sammy Sweetheart's sixteen. Yeah. At Sam's birthday celebration yesterday, Danny g was like, hey, man, did you see how the Vikings were defending the tush push? That was kind of wild. That made me say, hmmm, is trying new things? Yeah? I mean looked defective, it did. It looked defective. It's all right, don't work harder, work smarter. There's a way to do it. And they were like laying sideways, It's almost like a V shape, and they were able to get to the quarterback. Made me say, for sure. You know what made me say, you said it earlier? Mac Jones? I saw funny Jones. I saw a funny clip and it was a forty nine and fighting with someone. It's a little comedy skit. It's like, so, would you say, since Kyle Shanahan's been there, they you know he's coached in a good system. Yes, so you're saying if you play in his system, you're effective and it's his whole slippery slow too. So Mac Jones would to be this good somewhere else. So is he a system quarterback, which makes Brock purty. Your thoughts on mac Jones. Is it really just Kyle Shanahan has such a user friendly program or is that taken away credit from a guy that's a first round draft pick. Yeah? I think we forget that he was a solid quarterback to begin with, and he's getting an opportunity to play in a good system and it works for him.

00:38:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's similar to the Vikings. You can go there and be in a great offensive scheme for a quarterback.

00:38:43
Speaker 1: Easier for some than others.

00:38:44
Speaker 6: And there's some things that mac Jones can't do. He's not going to take off and pick up a first down his feet usually. I think that there's certain things they use, certain plays in the playbook that they would use Brock party that they won't use with mac Jones.

00:38:55
Speaker 1: I'm not quick to be like, well, perty's a system guy that lucked out and now makes fifty million dollar year. But you know what I do look back at now we've had enough time. You know, when a president you can't really tell if his turn was good until years later. How about when a president puts AI videos out stop it of dumping poop? How about that? How about when the president tweets out really random videos what I think like a presidency, It's hard to tell until you know. They always say until a decade or so later, when you could really look back. I think that applies to sports too, looking back. Man, like Jimmy Garoppolo is the definition of like someone that like benefited, benefited solely from being with the Niners in that time period with Mike Kyle Shanahan playing with McCaffrey Kittle debo, you like, do you think Jimmy Garoppolo And that makes me think of that anyone but him, they probably would have won two Super Bowls.

00:39:52
Speaker 3: Speaking of quarterbacks, when we go back to the Denver celebration really quick Jackson Dart and we were talking about this at the party last night. When he first and it was early in the drive in the series because of the penalty, it was almost better when he was called down because the clock would have ran and because he actually extended and got the ball in there. Do we need to see more of Higgins we talked about at the end of last week with that high IQ and you know that quarterback on the other side of the field is just chomping at the bit. To get that ball back.

00:40:23
Speaker 1: You don't want to give these guys a time like you no anything above thirty seconds. Oh, Ever since Mahomes and the Chiefs took the ball downfield what they started with like less than twenty seconds in that championship game or divisional whatever it was a couple years back. Ever since then, I feel like no time is short enough. Like in my mind, if you get a quarterback and one bed pass interference call something like you're you're there, it's Oh. We did learn though, officially, that the Giants have their quarterback of the future, like that dude's exciting to watch. He's a gamer. They just need a new kicker and their defense is a little lass. But other than that, Giants looked like they got some fire. That was a heartbreaker, I do. So we'll get to the rest of your feedback and phone calls. I guess there's still more things that made you go hm. Plus last one standing lots to get to next hour. We got to talk about the two best words in sports? Are they really game? Seven? Game? Are there other really sexy words? We'll break it down. We'll get to that and a bunch more having fun on a Monday coven on Rich Fox Sports Radio,
