This season may be over, but the story isn't. Stay tuned for season three. In 2026, Keyshawna wanted to pay homage to her son. I lost my son to cancer when he was just 14 years old. And I came to UnitedHealthcare to make a difference. She instantly made an impact on others. Anything that I could do to honor him, I understood. I was once that person on the other side. Through her work, she's been able to turn her pain into purpose. I do it for my boy. He gave me so much. Hear more stories like Kishana's@uhc.com so let me get this straight.

Our good buddy Ross Tucker will stop by as well. Most must win game of the weekend. Who had the best week in sports? We will cover all of that. Man, I love the NFC south because I have no idea who's good in the NFC South. If I was ever going to take a head coaching job, it would be in the NFC south because it feels like from first team to nine wins gets to win the division. The Falcons come back and surprise the Buccaneers. 29, 28. Tampa's now 7 and 7. They have two games against the pesky Carolina Panthers coming up to end their season, but wow, a 14 point comeback in the fourth quarter. Here's Baker Mayfield taking the blame. Disappointing, obviously, but falls on my shoulders. Can't, can't turn the ball over. Can't have that interception. Gotta hit mech and strike on that third down. Listen, you can say what you want about Being up two scores and the defense right there. But we have to be better on offense. And it comes down to how I play. And this one, this one's going to haunt me. This, this falls on my shoulders. The NFL is offering yet another reminder of why those early season proclamations, those hot takes age about as well as milk does. Let's go back in September. Oh, the Buccaneers, they're a force in the nfc. You had analyst experts. They thought the Buccaneers were going to rep the the NFC in the Super Bowl. Baker Mayfield, MVP Buzzing they were 6 and 2. They were ready to go. They had an offense, they had experience, they have a gritty, gutty quarterback. Well, after going 6 and 2, they're now 7 and 7, beaten up, inconsistent and searching for answers. How about the Colts? Let's go back to September. Oh, they had a great start. Then they had injuries, erratic play, and now they might have a 44 year old former quarterback, now current quarterback, playing against Seattle 8 and 5. Suddenly find themselves staring up in their own division, a reminder that Momentum is the NFL's most fickle currency. And then you have the Texans left for dead at three and five. They've won five in a row. That's the league in a nutshell right there. The beginning rarely matches the ending. And this year's plot twist is arriving right on schedule. Yes, Todd, wasn't that the Colts team that kept scoring constantly and never punted for like three straight weeks? That was that same Colts team. Yeah, that was long ago. That's why everybody wants to have a hot take. Got to get it out there in September, October, there's an ebb and flow. There's a roller coaster ride for just about every team. You know, the Patriots, they have two losses. Do you know one of those losses was to the Raiders once again trying to figure this out. And that's one of those where you go, man, the Raiders might be a little bit better than we thought. Oh, Patriots aren't going to be as good as we thought. It's reactionary. It's week to week and you get some of these teams that figure it out, they get healthy. And I thought Tampa Bay getting Mike Evans back, they got Bucky Urban back. Okay, you should win this game. But in the NFC south, and I say this every single year, it's the team that shouldn't win a game wins the game. It's like the Saints against the Buccaneers last week. I said they shouldn't win, but they will. The Falcons, they shouldn't win, but they will. And then you look at the Falcons. The Falcons are really the poster children of what could be and what really is. Whenever you watch them, you go, kyle Pitts, God, why can't he do this all the time? B John Robinson. Why can't he do this all the time? Because then you watch them, they giveth and then they take it. The way Kyle Pitt's injured or doesn't play that well. Bijan Robinson fumbles. You got the Michael Pennock situation. Now Kirk D. Cousins comes in and he played pretty well last night, certainly in the first half. But you look at the Falcons are always going to be a mystery to me because it feels like every year I feel like, man, this could be the year and this could be the year. They're kind of like my south version of the Chargers, like this could be. Although the Chargers have been better than the Falcons. But I hold out hope that maybe this is the year. And then you realize it's not the year and it's not revisionist history. When you look at the Falcons with the Michael Penix draft pick, because you had a guy who got banged up when he was at Indiana and then he went to Washington and he played really well, and you're playing in the playoffs and the Falcons decide, hey, we brought in Kirk Cousins and we spent over a hundred million dollars guaranteed. We can't pass up on this guy. It's rare when you have a quarterback where you go, I can't pass up on this guy because every year we're seeing more and more quarterbacks that we go, oh, man, Mendoza, right? Can't pass up on him. Dante Moore, can't pass up on him. Well, you can. You just got to make sure you get the right quarterback at the right time and you don't spend, you know, a lot of draft capital to get him. But I'm still puzzled by the Michael Pennock and maybe, maybe he turns out to be a quality quarterback. He's not better than Kirk Cousins, but he is your future. But he's not even able to play. And Cousins, I think, is under contract for one more year. I just, that one felt like, oh, my God, he's still on the board. Let's take him. And that's what makes the Falcons puzzling. Still waiting for them to maybe get a really, really good defensive player because it seems like, what is it? John Abraham? Is that the last great defensive player deep cut by you? I know because I always go, man, they, they could use a couple of really good defensive players. But the offense last night you come back from 14 down you end up winning it at the buzzer. I'll give credit, you know, to the Falcons there, but I got to give a lot of blame to the Buccaneers. You're at home. What are you doing? Come on. Yeah, Marvin. That John Abraham reference was great. That was better than mine. I was gonna say Cornelius Bennett. Okay. All right. Was that Corny Bennett after the Colts or after the Bills? Oh, Bills. Didn't he go Bills and Colts? Yeah. He lost five Super Bowls too soon. Has he lost more Super Bowls than anybody? Wow. Wow. I think so. I didn't think we were going to talk about the former Alabama linebacker Cornelius Bennett. Sorry, Cornelius. Yeah. All right. 8, 7, 7, 3 DP show operators sitting by. We'll come up with a poll question here. Army, Navy on Saturday, and Navy is favored, I think, by six and a half. There is no updates here on Sharon Moore. He's going to be in court today, but you're starting to hear dribs and drabs. And I, I want to be fair to the story because it's obviously very serious and it feels like there is some reporting, but there's a lot of. It is just sort of salacious stuff. So I want to be fair, want to be careful with this. Also, no decision on Philip Rivers status. This is wishful reporting, right? This is prime wishful reporting because nobody has anything that's definitive. But you'll get the following. You know, Philip Rivers is trending to start against Seattle. What does that mean? Is that a report then, that he's. He's going to start barring any setback, he's starting. Feels like now I would love for him to start. I'd love for him to play, you know, no matter what happens, you know, good or bad, it's. It's an interesting story. It, it's a story in a game that I wouldn't normally care about. And now I do. Like Shador Sanders playing against the Bears in Chicago, against Caleb Williams, Miles Garrett trying to, you know, chase down the sacre. You know, I'm going to care about that game a little bit more this time of the year you're looking for. There was no reason to watch last night. I mean, it was a standalone game. It's the NFL. And you might have fantasy or betting on the game, but you didn't tune in to go, boy, this is going to be a great. You probably thought, all right, Tampa is going to win at 27 17. And then, all right, we'll move on. And then all of a sudden you get a great fourth quarter and it becomes must see tv. I'm always looking for what is the game or games that I'm interested coming up this weekend. And sometimes that's really hard. You know, Bills and the Patriots. Awesome. Jets and Jags. No, I'm. Unless the jets play well here, which maybe they do. They're 13 and a half point underdogs. Browns, Bears, you know, the Ravens and the Bengals. The Ravens are favored in Cincinnati after Cincinnati beat the Ravens in Baltimore. Cardinals and the Texans. No. Chargers, Chiefs. Yes. The Raiders against the Eagles. Could you imagine if the Eagles would lose that game? Now? You can't say no chance. I mean, the. The Raiders have one. Well, they have two players. Max Crosby and Brock Bowers. That's. That's it right now. Oh, my God. The sky would be falling if what it already feels like it's falling in Philadelphia. Here it's falling on the shoulders of Jalen Hurts. Here is the Eagles quarterback. On bouncing back. Success or greatness, those things aren't linear. You, you have your ups, you have your downs, but somebody, you respond to it. And I think about, think about that. I mean, it's nothing new that I haven't faced before. It's a matter of responding to it. And I got a lot of confidence how we respond. I got a lot of confidence how we'll go. Okay. It feels like everybody wants to blame somebody and I think there's blame to go around here. But I can't have all of this fall on J I. Jalen Hurts is the quarterback that I think we think he is during the regular season. Put him in a big game. He's been very good. He's been great. So I can't go what the defense is figured out to allow him to throw the ball more and they can't run the football. Okay. Is it that simple? Jalen Hurts is not going to beat you from the pocket too many times if he's throwing the ball over 30 times, 40 times. I got to look at the coach and offensive coordinator. The scheme of what you're doing now, you have a luxury. They had a luxury of a great offensive line. They could run the football. Running the football sets up play action. You've got two really good receivers, you got a really good tight end, and you even have a running back who can catch the ball out of the backfield. So something is missing there. And I would start with the offensive line. But to put this on Jalen Hurts and all of a sudden go, coach, you thought about benching Jalen Hurts and putting in Tanner McGee or McKee. Doesn't matter. Like, what are we doing? Where else would this happen? Somebody has a couple of super bowl appearances, wins the super bowl as an mvp, and then all of a sudden you go, I don't know. You thinking of benching Patrick Mahomes? Hey, now, this happened with Tom Brady. This might have been 2015. You mean the year of falling off the cliff? Yeah. Might have been the Max Kellerman, Tom Brady falling off the cliff. But somebody asked Belichick if he thought about benching Brady and then putting in Jimmy Garoppolo. I guess you have to ask the question. But, I mean, I wouldn't. I wouldn't recommend doing that. But that seems like. Are you really giving this great thought that you're going to put in Tanner McKee over Jalen? Hurts. Oh, maybe you sit him down and let him what? Let him what? Watch Tanner play? Yeah. Seaton. The media replaced Tom Brady with seven different quarterbacks. There was no more popular topic than going from the hunky Tom Brady that to the hunky Jimmy Garoppolo. It was like the most obvious switch in the world. Everybody wanted that to happen, probably, except for Patriots fans. Some of the other games, Titans, Niners. No, you know, Panthers, Saints. Here we go. NFC South. Saints at home. Rams. Lions. That's. That's juicy. Vikings. Cowboys is interesting because we're still trying to figure out where these teams are going to be headed for next year. Seems like the Cowboys are in a pretty good position here. The Vikings. Let me see J.J. mcCarthy do it. Back to back weeks, the Dolphins at the Steelers, the J.J. watt situation. J.J. watt goes in for. T.J. watt goes in for treatment, and next thing you know, he's in the hospital because he's got something going on with his lung, and he didn't go in for treatment for something in his lungs. So I. I have no update on that. Haven't seen anything. But that's kind of strange. Was it a Tyrod Taylor? Didn't he get a punctured lung? He got a shot before a game, and then Justin Herbert had to come in and play and never look back. Yes, Todd. It's like the twelfth man. Your own doctor is going against you. You got to beat the other team and your own medical staff. Allegedly, Todd. If that happened. Allegedly. But it is a long shot that he's gonna be able to play. That's what I mean. Oh, wow. Too soon for that? No, that's a nice start. It's insensitive, though. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just gonna Throw in a Jethro Tall Aqua lung. But you know that probably. Why. Why beat it up more. Yeah. Bench running down his nose. Jethro Tall did have a couple of bangers. As we like to say. There are a couple of hours. The rare flute laden banger that in tights. There's not. There's not often that you can. Some little Robin Hood dude comes out like this. I know. Like. Dude. This shreds. This is so sad. No. It's like Peter Pan. He comes out twirling out into the middle of the stage of this flute. Yeah. Mosh pit. I never saw Jethro. They're still touring. I think. I never saw Jethro Tull. Didn't they give us Thick as a Brick and Aqualung? That are two of the. Two of the great albums. Rock albums of all time. Yes. Paul. When I was a kid and I heard about Jethro Tull, they'd be like schnott is running down his nose. They would say like they're on tour. I'm like, isn't it? He's on tour. I always thought Jethro Tull sounds like eleven was a person. No. Because it's Ian Anderson. Right? Is Jethro Tall very confusing? Yeah. The band is Jethro Tall. Okay. It's a Friday. Okay. Let's take a break here. We're going to settle on our poll question. Dead Patrick, shut the hell up. Shaq will join us in the final hour of the program and our good buddy Ross Tucker will stop by.

All right, Seaton Poll question for the first hour of this program is going to be the most accurate way to describe last night's game in the NFL. Is the Falcons won or the Buccaneers lost? That old question? Yes, I'm technically, they each did exactly that. The Falcons won, the Buccaneers lost. But how would you describe the game? I would say that the Buccaneers lost that game. There was a play where there's, I think four Tampa Bay Buccaneers around the ball and Atlanta ended up recovering the ball. I get it. You know, if you look at it, you go, oh, which player from Tampa recovered this fumble? Baker Mayfield throws a terrible interception. Like they had moments where they would have won the game. Recover the ball, don't throw an interception. What was it, second and 28? Is that what the yardage was? And then they ended up getting the first down. Kirk Cousins got sacked, there was a offside. You know, there's just all of these different things where you go, tampa, don't you realize what's happening? You're going to lose this game. I think that you have to have that team collapse for the other team to be able to come back and win those games. And look, Atlanta did it statistically, almost impossible. I think in their history, this is the first time in. Let me see. Yeah, Paulie. The Falcons had 18 penalties against them. They actually had 21 called. A couple were turned down. It was, it was brutal. And they end up winning that one. Okay. The Falcons were 0, 1, 3, 2 and 1 in their last 133 games when trailing by 14 or more points in the fourth quarter. Prior to last night, their last win when trailing by 14 or more in the fourth quarter was back in 1983. Brought to you by Panini America. The official trade trading cards of the program. Kirk cousins throw throws for 373 and three touchdowns. Kyle Pitts had 11 catches and three touchdowns. Bijan Robinson had 93 yards rushing in a touchdown and he had 82 yards receiving. Like, these are great numbers, but this is what we've come to expect with the Falcons or we want to expect with the Falcons. And then how About Mike Evans, 6 catches, 132 coming back from that broken clavicle. But now down the stretch now I'm rooting for Carolina. You know what? Tampa, you screwed around. Carolina is a good story. And the winner of those games, you know, they play each other twice. I love that. But you know, the Panthers Saints game is a must win situation. I mean, Carolina can't goof around here with New Orleans. You know, they can't shuck around. And you're going to find out. Yeah, Paulie. The NFC south, all four teams have been outscored by a lot this season. The Panthers have been outscored by 50 points. They're in first place. The Bucks have been outscored by 27, Falcons outscored by 60, and the Saints by 109. The other division that's like that. Shockingly, the AFC north, all four of their teams have been outscored this year by the opponents. Patrick in North Carolina leads us off. Hi, Patrick. What's on your mind? Good morning, dp. Happy Meat Friday. Dan S. And the brg. Listen, I was hearing you talking about important games coming up this weekend. And when I went to bed last night, Tampa Bay was winning. I was like, okay, we've got to win this weekend. Now with Tampa Bay losing this next two weeks is pivotal for our Panthers. If we can go to go to the Saints, which I believe we will, after they came up here and shucked us at home, I think we're gonna go down there and do a little shucking. Ourselves, then come back next week and win a at least one of two games against Tampa Bay. I have to say it. I can't believe it, but my Carolina Panthers could be division winners this year, and that would be a great success with Coach Canales. Well, good luck, Patrick. Good luck, Al. In Atlanta. Ow. How about your Falcons? I wouldn't know, Dan, because, by the way, Good morning, man. Good morning. I wouldn't know because yesterday Thursdays are a gym night with my family and we have a late dinner. So we came home about 8 o' clock right as the game was starting, you know, put it on while dinners being cooked, and then was forced to turn it off while we ate dinner. And then after dinner, when I turned it back on, my family was like, yeah, I know this is just too stressful. We can't watch this. Like, we can't watch you sit there and be in turmoil for the entire game. So they made me turn the game off, Dan. They made me turn the game off. I found out what happened when my friend from Norwich, England, who is only an American football fan because I introduced him to it, called me at midnight while he was going to work to tell me, oh, did you see that great comeback? No, I didn't get to see that great comeback because my family made me miss something that the Falcons haven't done my entire lifetime. I'd get a new family if I were. Yeah, yeah. Like, what's going on, Al? As child abuse. All right, well, congratulations on that big win by your Falcons that you didn't get to see. Tim and Albany. Hi, Tim. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan. Good morning. I'm just sick. I mean, I've been a Tampa fan since I was a young lad, probably about 11 years old, and just sick of what I saw last night. This is not. This is not a defense that deserves to be in the playoffs. I mean, they just. True, they've completely sold out. They completely have sold out on the offensive side of the ball. And this defense just gets torched game after game after game. They have no pass rush, they're forced to blitz, and it leaves a secondary vulnerable. I thought the New Orleans loss was bad, but what I saw last night, it really should have been a lot worse with all the penalties that the Falcons had. And last thing I'll say is, you know, all my friends love Baker Mayfield. Everybody loves Baker Mayfield. The moxie, the gritty hat. Did you love him last night when he was throwing a pick in the fourth quarter? And, you know, it's so he he give us and he take us away and. Thanks, Dan. All right. Thank you, too. Thank you for calling his tough man. You have them backed up to third and 28. Yeah. And you can't. You can't figure that out. I don't blame Mike Evans for being pissed. Even if Baker Mayfield. Right. He has to. He can't throw that interception. There's like a minute left in the game, and you've got them backed up like that. Good grief. Vince in Austin. Hi, Vince. What's on your mind today? Hey, good morning, Dan. Happy Friday, guys. Gentlemen. Pretty Dan, poking fun at you yesterday. Julie Andrews was your childhood crush or one of your first crushes? Yeah. Are you familiar with the 80s movie? Her producer at the time, Blake Edwards? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. After that, she became one of my first pressures, too. I prefer to see Julie Andrews in the light of Sound of Music or Mary Poppins. I'm very respectful. You Vince, or Pervert? All right. Thank you for calling in. Joseph in Missouri. Hi, Joe. What's on your mind? Oh, good morning, Dan. Long time. First time. 5:10, 1:80. I just want to key in. Thank you. I would just want to key in that. To me, the two best albums of Death Rotel are Benefit and Stand Up. The first two, I heard him first in San Francisco in 1966. Okay. But Aqua Lung and Thick As a Brick are pretty good albums, too. Oh, well, they're pretty. Yeah, they're pretty good albums, and they became that. They're famous for that. But the first two, as far as musical technicalities and all that, I love them the most. All right, well, thank you, Joe. Yeah. I wasn't around to listen to Jethro Tull then. I think it was in the 70s when I was listening to Jethro Toll. Zach in Minnesota. Hi, Zach. What's on your mind today? Good morning, Dan. Thanks for taking my call. Happy Friday to everybody. I'm just calling in regards to Shaquille o'. Neal. Got a question that hopefully you could ask him. Which did he which? Does he have more pressure to prepare in performing alongside of. Was it Kobe Bryant? Was it Steve Nash? Or will it be T Pain when Shaq performs under his moniker of DJ Diesel alongside T Pain this summer? Thanks for the call. Have a good weekend, guys. All right, well, thank you, Zach. Yeah. Shaq has a big party, his super bowl party. He'll join us a little bit later on. T Pain will be part of that. And Tiesto, I believe Tiesto. Is he a dj? I believe Tiesto. Is he a dj. He Is okay. Name's probably Steve. Yeah, but he's probably very popular. He's probably. I think he's been around for a little while. Yes, he's a big deal. Yeah, yeah. Is Skrillex still DJing? Wasn't he a big deal for a while? Skrillex was a big deal for a while. That sort of dubstep oh thing had a little bit of, a little bit of a flash in the pan. It's not as hot these days. Okay. I don't know who these seem like it anyway. Well, there's DJ Khaled. Like, is he a different type of dj? Yeah, yeah. He's not a dj. We don't know what he does more of like a producer dj. Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. Yes. Paul, I'm looking at net worth, career salaries of DJs. Yeah. I know a few of these gentlemen. There's a gentleman named Calvin Harris. They estimate he's made $300 million in his career. He used to date Taylor Swift. Correct. Tiesto your boy? Yes. About 200 million net worth. Very nice. Back to you. And who would have thought you just go. When you play music and you make a lot of money, people hire you just to do that. Let's see Waddle in North Carolina. Hey, Waddle. Hey, Dan. Thanks for taking my call. I just want to weigh in real quick. Most. Most win game of the weekend got to be the Carolina Panthers simply to the fact I travel with my work and I don't get to see a lot of Panthers games, but I did get to go watch them play against the Saints. And earlier this year is the week after, you know, we just beat Green Bay. I'm riding high and stuff and we're. I'm sitting in the suite, enjoying a nice beer, having a, having some food and I'm sitting there watching our team just lay an egg. Yeah. So just, just for them to. Just not so much because of the Buccaneers losing, but I just want them to just take it out on the Saints just because of the sour grass sour taste I have in my mouth. Speaking of sour taste, I also want to commend you guys on your menu. Never, never once have I wanted to get in my car at 9:00 in the morning, drive all the way up to Connecticut just to try some smoked salmon BLTs. Do you guys enjoy? Have a great weekend. Well, thank you. Thank you. Wano. We will. Yeah. We got the smoked prime rib. We have prime rib sliders, Cuban sliders, smoked salmon BLT sliders. Nobody. Nobody. Let's See Matt in Salt Lake City. Hi, Matt. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan, thanks for taking my call. Two quick thoughts. With all these great interviews that you've had with and. And the compliments that you've received, I see the possibility of well edited. When submitted to the sports Emmys, you. All these compliments you receive from professionals in the business and those who felt comfortable coming onto your show, man, all those compliments well edited. I think you got the sports Emmy wrapped up this next year and then two, because of the quality of these interviews. Could we have the I team look into your contract to see if it, if it activates any clause to extend retirement by a year? Oh, if I win an Emmy, do we activate an extra year? Is that what you're saying? Well, Matt's gone. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think there's any language in my contract that says if we win the sports Emmy, then I have to do another year. Yes, yes, I think that makes sense. You got to try to go back to back, and then if you win two, you got to go back to back to back. There are records to be broken here. You can't just go out on top. That's the easy way out. You got to prove that you can do it again. And it wasn't a fluke. I don't want to be Travis Kelsey. I understand, but it's to show that it's not a flu. You got to go try for two straight. I want to be John Elway. You can, you can understand that. Who doesn't? Do you want me to be Elway or Travis Kelsey? There's only one Elway. I think you need to keep going and keep winning as many as you can in a row. He didn't lie. Couldn't he. There was, there was like, health reasons, but you're. You're doing fine. No, I'm not. He couldn't. I had strep throat and bronchitis recently. You got the hair still. I understand that you bounced back, though. You're Todd. I nearly died the last three weeks. Every other question you ask of a guest, I say, that's a great question. They're still doing that to this day. So you got plenty to go. But I never say that to you. That. That's a great question. You do not. That may never happen. Let's see. Kevin in Nashville. Hi, Kevin. What's on your mind? Dan, A first time caller. Five, seven, maybe about £160. You guys, Skrillex has had an amazing renaissance in recent years. You're up here talking about Jethro Tull and don't know that Skrillex has dropped two albums a day apart in 2023 and dropped one of the albums of the year this year that you. You definitely need to check out. I can't say I'm not staying in my lane. I'm not getting out of my lane. I just wondered about Skrillex, that's all. I'm glad you told me about it. Now I'm not knocking Skrillex. I didn't know if he was still on his game and he was a big deal. I knew he had a bad haircut and had some big glasses there. But thank you for setting me straight there. I mean, we. We don't need to go down that green day lane. February 2024. Skrillex won his ninth Grammy Award for the collaborative single Rumble. All right, how about a round of applause for Skrillex? Todd, see if you can get Skrillex on how time you got acknowledged. Who's that? 1, 6, 9. Is that like Tanashi? Oh, God. Oh, no. We are better off without. No, I think we're up against the break. Nope, that ain't it. Yeah, that ain't it. That dude. I want that Mike Evans last. What? What? What? What's his name? I did. I don't even want to say that guy. No, thank you. Okay, anybody else but him? All right, let's take a break here. Take a break. No, but I. You know, it's one of those names that I remember seeing. And he's got tattoos all over his face. Yeah. How about we take a break? Our play of the day is up next. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.

That has changed dramatically. Okay, she's chasing. But no, no, no, no, no. I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I'm kidding. So funny. Because that is literally what stopped them for so long.

Convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. Tirerack.com the way tire buying should be. Our one poll results so far. Seaton. Oh, man. Yeah, we got up there right now. The most accurate way to describe last night's game in the NFL. The Falcons won or the Buccaneers lost. It's about 50. 50. I think that's going to change over the time. Over the course of some time. Yeah. Tampa lost that game. Doug in Tampa. Hi, Doug. What's on your mind? Hi DB first time, long time. 61 2, 50 and a sneaky dad bod. Thanks for taking my call. I've been a buccaneers fan for 30 years. I've never seen anything like this year. I think everybody who knows football knows that football is one and lost in the trenches. And our offensive line is garbage. Our defensive line, we've got Vita Vea and nobody else helping him. You can have all the weapons in the world, but if you can't get them the ball, you're not going to win any games. We also have a quarterback that is taking full accountability for a loss and a coach that is putting blame on the players. That never seems to work out for anybody. I think Todd Bowles is a dead man walking. But we have nobody on this coaching staff that can take over. You know, first year offensive coordinator, horrible special teams coach, no other person on defense to take over. So I think last year, but somebody big is going to come in new year and he's done. Yeah, but you might win the division. So are you going to fire Todd Bowles if you win the division? Yeah. Paulie, let's say hypothetically both jobs were available. Tampa Bay, Atlanta, which is more attractive? I would say Atlanta. I agree. I mean I got Drake London, Kyle Pitts and Bijan Robinson. I looked at Cousins contract. They can get out of it after this season. They get hit pretty hard on the cap. Or they could keep him two more years. I he's a better quarterback than Michael Pennix. He's healthier. I get just they jumped the gun with this that they, you know, hey, we can't pass up Michael Penix Jr. III. Okay. And once again, this isn't revisionist history. I said it at the time like, what are you doing? You know, wonderful quarterback, but you know what? Blew out his knee, both knees when he was at Indiana. Great story. Went to Washington, got him in the playoffs. Yeah. Paul, four picks later they could have had Brock Bowers, the tight end out of Georgia. And I know they had pits, but Brock Bowers was sitting there and it's a local and they went with Pennocks. Jeff in Utah. Hi Jeff. What's on your mind today? ADP first time, long time, measuring in at 6 foot 5 and this is a belt 190. I want to share a story. Given the 30 for 30 this week on Stuart Scott thought it was really well done. I hope you agree. I happen to be the hometown friend and high school football teammate of Stuart and wanted to share a quick story that just shows you that Stu was one of those guys that even though he hit the big stage on the biggest platform in sports media, he was someone who never forgot where he came from. I remember watching SportsCenter, it was about 2005, 2006, he was doing the commentary on Carolina basketball highlights and there was a forward named Rayshawn Terry who started for Carolina. Also came from our High school with Sinceale Reynolds and Rayshawn went on a like a 10 or 12 point scoring run. And live on the broadcast, Stuart broke into the alma mater song of our high school Beneath the pie and she proudly stands. And you know, there, there may have been maybe a few dozen, maybe a few hundred people who got that sort of inside hometown reference and he got away with it. But it also worked in the flow of the broadcast. So that was just something cool I wanted to share. Leave you with that Friday. All right, well, thank you, Jeff, for the story. The one thing that Stuart did, he was really active with minorities, African Americans trying to get into the business or those that came to espn. He was pretty much their confidant, mentor. He did and he willingly took that role. He was very active in talking, helping people get jobs, whether it was in ESPN or if they were leaving espn. Bruce in Alaska. Hi, Bruce. What's on your mind today? Yeah, I got, I got a great Shaq story. But just to start off in your along Jethro Toll lines, I'm old enough, I was, I went to both Aqua Long and Thick as a Brick concerts. They were fabulous. But the Shack. Yeah, my brother was helped to open Universal Studios Hard Rock Cafe and he was a bartender and Shaq was a regular. Well, they had a bartender who was fighting cancer and a bunch of people got together and were in a little annex and they were there kind of fundraising and having a good time with him. Shaq comes up to the bar, asks my brother, he goes, what's everybody doing in there? And my brother explained what was going on and he said, you know, why didn't you guys tell me? So he whips out his platinum card, throws it on the bar. He says max it out and give him all the money. And just what a great guy. All right. Yeah, he's very charitable. Shaq loves doing those things kind of privately and so does Barclay. Barclay's very generous, overly generous and he'll pick up every meal always, always. He's never hesitant with that. In fact, he's proactive. Before you sit down, he's already made the arrangements that he's picking up dinner. But yeah, Shackle Jonas in the final hour of the program. But thank you, thank you for the phone call, Bruce. All right, one hour in the books, two more to go. We will talk to Ross Tucker. He'll join us coming up in about a half hour from now. You know the Philadelphia situation. I know they're double digit favorites against the Raiders, but it's not if they are when they win. It's how they win. Because if this is one of those kind of struggling and it's a 20 to 14 kind of win, the heat does not, you know, it's not removed from the Eagles burner. It seems like it's going to get a little bit warmer in there. So we'll talk to Ross and then Shaq will join us as well. More of your phone calls as well to meet Friday with Fritzy Seaton, Marv, Paulie, yours truly, and of course the back room guys. 877 3DP show hour two on this program right after this. What a matchup we got, y'. All. This is that classic hbcuva non stop action. The band is rocking and the crowd lit chance echo drum beat everybody showing that school pride game like this. Yeah, it calls for an ice cold Coca Cola. Ah, crisp and refreshing. That's a game changer right there. Yeah, that taste always hits the right note. Just like the band at halftime. And just like that, we're back at it. Passionate fans, fans, school colors everywhere and an ice cold Coca Cola. That's a winning combo no matter the sport, no matter the yard. Everybody knows fan work is thirsty work. So grab a Coca Cola and keep that HBCU pride going. The day begins at the Chase Sapphire lounge by the club at Boston Logan Airport.
